More Community Transit double-decker buses set to roll By Noah Haglund Herald Writer
EVERETT — Community Transit is finally set to double up on its fleet of double-decker buses. The transit agency ordered 22 new double-tall coaches last year and had hoped to introduce them over the summer. The first six arrived in June with structural flaws, though, and that’s pushed back the schedule. The buses should start serving routes this week now that mechanics from the manufacturer, Alexander Dennis Ltd., have fixed defects between the
first and second deck. “The good thing is that now that summer’s over, we expect a lot more people to be riding our buses into Seattle and we’re grateful to have this extra capacity,” Community Transit spokesman Martin Munguia said. “We’ll be able to take more people than we could with the 60-foot (articulated) buses.” Community Transit nicknamed the new buses “Double Tall,” a reference to Pacific Northwest coffee culture. The new buses stand 13 feet, six inches high. Each cost nearly $900,000, including tax. See BUSES, back page, this section

LAKE STEVENS — The state Department of Labor and Industries has fined Target $21,000 in connection with a worker’s death at the Lake Stevens store in June. The store had three serious violations of workplace safety laws, according to the state’s findings released Monday. Each violation carries a $7,000 fine. Target is appealing the fines. A hearing will be scheduled in the coming weeks. Marjorie M. Reed, 58, of Snohomish, suffered fatal head injuries June 7 after falling from a ladder. It happened while she was retrieving something from an upper-level shelf about 5:15 a.m. She was stocking shelves. The store in the Frontier Village area did not properly train employees on using ladders, including the 10-foot portable model that Reed had been using, according to the report. All three safety findings were related to how employees used ladders. One finding was for allowing workers to lean over the sides of ladders. Another was for allowing employees to climb down ladders while carrying product in their hands. The third finding was for having Reed use a ladder with a bent footing. The structural problem may have contributed to the accident. The store was supposed to fix the problems by Friday. L&I investigates workplace deaths across the state. In Snohomish County, fines for safety problems have been levied in recent months for deaths from a forklift accident in Lynnwood, a lawnmower crash in Tulalip and an electrocution in Edmonds. Car crashes and falls are the most common causes of workplace deaths in the county, according to state data.

Oregon medical pot outlets gear up for rec sales By Gosia Wozniacka Associated Press
PORTLAND, Ore. — Oregon’s medical marijuana dispensaries are getting ready for a watershed moment this week: when recreational pot users also will be able to buy weed at their pot shops. More than 200 of Oregon’s 345 medical marijuana dispensaries have notified the Oregon Health Authority of plans to sell recreational marijuana starting Thursday. Though some dispensaries may not qualify right away if they’re still in the application process and haven’t been approved, OHA spokesman Jonathan Modie said. Oregon passed Measure 91 in November. The law legalized possessing and growing limited amounts

By Lindsey Tanner CHICAGO — Government researchers say “deplorably” few college students are warned by doctors about the danger from alcohol and drugs or encouraged to reduce drinking or substance use. Their survey suggests that most doctors ask college students and other young adults about alcohol or drug use at regularly scheduled visits. But many doctors don’t go much beyond that initial question. The study by National Institutes of Health researchers was published Monday in JAMA Pediatrics. Some highlights about the findings:
On the Net JAMA Pediatrics: http:// bit.ly/1adWrco NIH: www.niaaa.nih.gov
The survey About 2,100 college students and other young adults across the country were asked in 2012 and 2013 if they’d seen a doctor in the previous year and had been asked and counseled about their drinking, smoking and drug use. Participants had taken part in an earlier government health survey while in high school. In the new survey, most attended college but about one-third were not students.
Doctors and counseling Most of those surveyed had a recent doctor visit where they were asked about smoking, drinking and substance abuse. Fewer than half the college students said they’d been counseled about risks of those habits. Only one-third of college students who told researchers they’d been drunk at least six times in the previous month said doctors had advised them to cut down or stop. That advice was slightly less common for college students who were frequent smokers or drug users. Non-students were slightly more likely to get that kind of counseling. Lead researcher Ralph Hingson of the National

“It’s going to be a surprise for everybody, we’re hoping it’s really busy,” said Lois Pariseau of Gras Cannabis in Portland, a dispensary that opened four months ago. Pariseau said a lot of people have been walking into the dispensary in recent weeks, asking about the start of early sales. The competition is stiff, she said, with several other dispensaries already open on their street. To lure recreational users, Gras Cannabis has been advertising, including in two local alternative newspapers and on two giant billboards in the city. Pariseau said the dispensary’s “bud tenders” are ready to educate new users about pot. And anyone wanting to buy should first understand what is and isn’t allowed.

and marijuana-infused products are not available in early sales. Customers must provide a valid, government-issued photo ID as proof of age. Ten cities and two counties have prohibited early retail sales of marijuana, including Douglas and Harney counties, Gresham, Brownsville, John Day, Junction City, La Grande, Reedsport and Sherwood. Recreational pot has also been legalized in Washington, Colorado and Alaska, though in Alaska is still figuring out how to regulate the industry. Most dispensaries in Oregon are thrilled to start offering recreational pot, hoping to boost their sales in an already over-saturated industry. But, they say, it’s hard to know what impact adult recreational sales will have.
Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism said it’s possible participants didn’t tell doctors the truth about their drinking habits. Even so, physicians’ lack of advice may send a message that heavy drinking is OK, Hingson said.
Drinking stats Overall, 40 percent of participants told researchers they’d consumed five or more drinks on at least one occasion and 10 percent had been drunk at least six times in the past month. According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, alcohol is linked with nearly 2,000 deaths each year among college students, and many more
assaults and date rapes.
Why no counseling? Dr. Tanveer Mir, chair of the American College of Physicians’ Board of Regents, said doctors may assume college students already know about the risks and consequences. Also, physician training often doesn’t emphasize that those problems are preventable and treatable, and physicians may feel that there isn’t enough time in an office visit to address the issue, Mir said. She was not involved in the study. The researchers said efforts are needed to remove those barriers because studies have shown that screening and brief counseling can reduce alcohol misuse.

‘Calming circles’ to slow down shortcuts Marysville has found a solution to the problem of drivers speeding through some of its neighborhoods. By Chris Winters Herald Writer
MARYSVILLE — Five neighborhoods that have been victim to speeding cut-through drivers will have traffic circles installed
by the end of the year. The circles are officially called “neighborhood traffic calming circles,” and are much smaller than the one on Shoultes Road. Instead, these circles will be put on neighborhood streets
that drivers have been using as short cuts to avoid lights or traffic on the major arterials, said city spokeswoman Bronlea Mishler. “The goal is to start them this fall and have them installed by winter,” Mishler said, adding that construction would largely be dependent on the weather. The speed limit on
neighborhood city streets is 25 mph, but in several locations, traffic has been observed going as fast as 35 mph, said Jesse Hannahs, Marysville’s traffic engineer. Likewise, Hannahs said, the city hasn’t determined what percentage of traffic on those roadways is local and how much is cut-through. It also hasn’t
compiled accident statistics. Many of the intersections for which circles are planned are on straight sections of roadway between two arterials. For example, two traffic circles already have been installed in the Northpointe neighborhood on 71st Avenue NE where See CIRCLES, Page A4

SEATTLE — A federal jury began deliberating late Monday to decide if the father of the Marysville teenager who fatally shot his high school classmates last fall is guilty of illegally having firearms. Lawyers on both sides made their final arguments Monday afternoon in the trial of Raymond Fryberg, charged with six counts of illegally possessing guns, including the one his son, Jaylen, used to kill four friends and then himself at MarysvillePilchuck High School on Oct. 24. Prosecutors said Fryberg was the subject of a 2002 domestic violence protection order, which meant he was prohibited from having guns. Fryberg didn’t testify and his lawyers called no witnesses. Lawyer John Henry Browne said he didn’t need to because the government’s witnesses were all he needed to make his case that Fryberg was never served with notice of the protection order hearing, and thus is not guilty. Fryberg passed at least a dozen background checks and no law enforcement agency ever said he was prohibited from owning guns, Browne told jurors. The jury deliberated for an hour before being sent home. They’re scheduled to resume Tuesday morning. Assistant U.S. Attorney YeTing Woo told the panel Fryberg was served with a notice about a hearing to discuss the protection order sought by his former girlfriend, but he chose to ignore it. The Tulalip Tribal Court judge granted the order, but she said it was never entered into any state or federal databases, so when Fryberg went to Cabela’s to buy

No quick decision on county courthouse By Noah Haglund Herald Writer
EVERETT — A decision on Snohomish County’s courthouse project is looking increasingly unlikely this year. A delay would push any commitment past the Nov. 3 election for county executive and work drafting next year’s county budget.
In the meantime, county staff could study less-expensive alternatives that would come in far less than the $162 million plan that fell apart over the summer. “We need more information before we can make a decision,” County Councilman Terry Ryan said Monday. “We’re going into budget right now, so I don’t think this is going to be a quick decision.”
Planning for the courthouse project has followed a circuitous path since late 2012, when a majority of the County Council committed to a $65 million project to remodel the existing 1967 courthouse and add a new threestory wing. Council members the following year decided instead to replace the old courthouse with a brand-new building, believing it wouldn’t cost that much more.

MONROE — A Monroe teen suffered critical injuries in a weekend crash that landed the driver of the other car in jail. The girl, 16, was a passenger in a 1991 Honda Accord that was struck by a stolen Subaru in the 300 block of W Main Street shortly after 2 a.m. Saturday. She suffered life-threatening head injuries and was taken by
medics to Providence Regional Medical Center Everett. The driver of the Honda was treated for minor injuries. Police reported finding the Subaru driver hiding in some bushes at the Lewis Street boat launch about three-quarters of a mile from the crash scene. He was identified as Jarid Castillo, 28, of Monroe. He received medical attention after being bitten by a police dog involved in the search, according to a police report.

State suspends operations of duck tour company By Gene Johnson and Rachel La Corte Associated Press
SEATTLE — Washington state regulators suspended the operations of a Seattle tour company Monday after one of its amphibious vehicles swerved into an oncoming charter bus last week, killing five people and hurting dozens of others. The state Utilities and Transportation Commission met in an emergency session to keep the repurposed military “duck boats,” owned by Ride the Ducks of Seattle, off the streets pending inspections and a review of driver and maintenance records. The decision came a day after federal investigators announced that the duck boat involved in the crash did not have an axle repair that was recommended two years ago for such vehicles. Authorities are looking into whether axle failure caused the crash; the vehicle’s front left axle was found sheared off, but it’s not clear if it broke before the collision or during it.

guns, he passed the background checks. Fryberg lied on the firearms purchasing forms when asked
Early indications are that despite a service bulletin issued in 2013 by Ride the Ducks International, the Seattle firm had not repaired axles on any of its vehicles, said David Pratt, the commission’s assistant director for transportation safety. “Because of the possibility of continuing safety problems and a current lack of confidence surrounding the company’s operations, we believe it is important to act immediately to protect the public safety,” commission chairman David Danner said. Brian Tracey, owner of Ride the Ducks of Seattle, said Sunday night that he was in “complete agreement” with keeping the boats parked pending the inspections. He did not address whether he had known of the 2013 bulletin before the crash. “We will not return any of the fleet to service until we can demonstrate that our fleet is well-maintained, road-worthy and safe through an independent inspection of every Duck vehicle we operate,” he said. Atlanta-based Ride the
David Pratt, the assistant director for transportation safety at the Washington state Utilities and Transportation Commission, talks to members of the media Monday in Olympia, after the commission suspended the operations of Seattle’s “duck boats.”
Ducks International refurbished the 1945 Army surplus vehicle involved in the crash and sold it to Ride the Ducks of Seattle, an independently owned licensee, in 2005. It said in a written statement Monday that it warned its customers in 2013 about potential failure of the front axle housing assembly on 57 vehicles in service around the country, and it recommended specific inspections and repairs to

reinforce the housing. Its other affiliates and licensees — in Philadelphia; Stone Mountain Park, Georgia; Branson, Missouri; and Newport, Kentucky — had all complied, the company said. “We had no reason to believe that Seattle had not complied with the bulletin,” the statement said. Witnesses described seeing the duck boat’s left front tire lock up or otherwise have mechanical problems Thursday
before it veered into the bus. It could take a year to determine the cause of the crash, the National Transportation Safety Board said Sunday. Four international college students died at the scene, and a fifth died Sunday. They were among about 45 students and staff from North Seattle College who were traveling Thursday to the city’s Pike Place Market and Safeco Field for orientation events when the tourist-carrying duck boat swerved into it on the Aurora Bridge, a six-lane span with no median barrier. More than 50 people were taken to hospitals. At least 13 people remained hospitalized. The four students who were killed at the scene were identified as Runjie Song, 17, of China; Privando Putradanto, 18, of Indonesia; Mami Sato, 36, of Japan; and Claudia Derschmidt, 49, of Austria, who was in Seattle with her 15-year-old son. Derschmidt’s son was not on the bus at the time of the crash, college spokeswoman Maria Lamarca Anderson said.
The King County Medical Examiner’s Office on Monday identified the fifth student as Haram Kim, 20. She died Sunday at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. A spokeswoman for the college declined to release the woman’s nationality, citing the family’s request for privacy. The state transportation commission said it did not learn of the warning until last weekend and that Ride the Ducks of Seattle had no legal obligation to report it. “If I had received it, we would have immediately contacted the company and worked with them to talk about the repairs that were needed repairs or the seriousness of it,” Pratt said. The amphibious vehicle tours operate around the world, including in Boston; Philadelphia; Austin, Texas; Miami; Fort Lauderdale, Florida; and London. Tour companies in Boston and Miami said Monday that their vehicles are different from Seattle’s and were not subject to the 2013 service bulletin.

alleged victim. “Do you think it’s appropriate to serve papers in a case where you’re related to those people?” Browne asked the jury. The officer could not be called to testify because he recently died, Browne said.

Associated Press SEATTLE — After protests and questions about whether the University of Washington would be required to follow Seattle’s $15 minimum wage law, the university has decided to comply. After raising all campus wages to at least $11 an hour in April, UW announced Monday it would increase its minimum wage to $13 in January and $15 at the beginning of 2017. This decision applies to all workers on campus, including students and follows the law’s rules for large employers. The new wage agreement will affect about 5,500 people, including 3,500 student workers. The university estimates the cost for raising all workers to at least $13 an hour in 2016 will be $3.2 million. Students disrupted an April regents meeting, demanding higher wages. The university announced a few days later that it was increasing the minimum pay for student workers to $11 an hour.

passed away peacefully with his family at his side on September 24, 2015. Don was born on May 18, 1938 in Livingston, Montana. He grew up in the Nor th Seattle area, graduating from Roosevelt High School in 1956. He pursued undergraduate studies at the University of Washington. He subsequently received his MD degree at the University o f Wa s h i n g to n S c h o o l o f Medicine. Thereafter, Don served in the US Army which included his internship at Tripler Army Hospital in Honolulu, Hawaii. He served in Vietnam as a battalion surgeon with the 25th Infantr y Division. He was decorated with a Bronze Star for bravery while attending to the wounded in the field of battle. Upon his return from Vietnam, Don finalized his six years of residency training in 1972 at Stanford University where he had ser ved as Chief Resident and had completed his training in urology. Don and his family returned to their beloved state of Washington after accepting a position at The Everett Clinic as the organization’s first urologist. Don met Margaret H. May during his medical school rotations at Harborview Medical Center, where she had been working as a nurse. They got married in Seattle in 1963. After years in the military and residency training, their passion for the Pacific Northwest eventually drew them back to Washington. While at The Everett Clinic, Don had served in a number of administrative roles, which included ser vice as President of the Board of Directors. He additionally served as Chief of Surgery at Providence General Medical Center. He took great joy in working with a close-knit family of colleagues over many years of growth and change in healthcare. His passion for clinical practice was matched only by his joy of working with others in leadership roles, and was p a r t i c u l a r l y i n te r e s te d i n mentoring younger physicians and future leaders. Don lived a vibrant life that was shared closely with his immediate family and friends. He and Margaret shared a passion for backpacking and mountaineering. Some of his fondest memories included annual weeklong father-son backpacking expeditions across the Casc a d e s a n d O l y mp i c s w i t h friends and professional colleagues at The Everett Clinic. Throughout his life, Don enjoyed flower and vegetable gardening, and he had a particular interest in growing a wide variety of rhododendrons. Don was active with the Everett Parks Depar tment, through which he coached numerous boys’ basketball teams. He additionally served on the Everett Parks Depar tment Tree Committee. Don had taken particular interest in conservation efforts in regards to our local national parks and wilderness areas. During his retirement from medicine, Don and Margaret enjoyed world travel, backpacking, skiing, summers at their Hood Canal retreat, attending football games at Husky Stadium, researching family genealogy, and spending late nights watching classic movies. Most importantly, he and Margaret enjoyed spending time with their sons’ families. Don is survived by his immediate family, which includes his devoted wife Mar-

that project until an August ground-breaking was canceled. Some county council members have suggested reviving the original remodeling plan as a way to trim expenses by as much as $50 million. Councilman Brian Sullivan isn’t among them. “What they’re talking about as a less expensive building is a really expensive Band-Aid,” Sullivan said. “In the long-term, it will not meet the needs of the courts or a growing population.” At least a few judges also oppose the remodeling plan for many of the same reasons. Add to the list of skeptics Dave Gossett, who as a County Councilman in 2012 pushed to remodel the courthouse and build a new wing. Gossett, who left office after 2013 because of term limits, wrote to council members last week to urge them to build a new courthouse on the plaza immediately north of the existing building. That plan was passed over when a majority of the council decided to build across the street, with Gossett and then-Councilman John Koster opposed. “Remodeling the existing courthouse will never adequately solve the issues of public safety and service that the current building has,” Gossett wrote. “... In the end, when the current courthouse is torn down in (the) future, it will be totally wasted. Enough has already been wasted by the mistaken decision to build on the site across the street.” County Executive John Lovick has blamed Everett city leaders for sinking the $162 million project over parking concerns. Lovick has suggested suspending courthouse plans, possibly for years, and to stop collecting taxes levied for courthouse construction. Council Chairman Dave Somers, who is challenging Lovick for the executive’s job Nov. 3, supports giving the remodeling idea further thought. Somers voted against a similar plan in 2012. A majority of the council last week voted to freeze the courthouse budget until they figure out what to do. The discussion is likely to continue at the council next meeting at 9 a.m. Wednesday or next week.

Obama, Putin spar over Syria By Julie Pace and Vladimir Isachenkov Associated Press
UNITED NATIONS — U.S. President Barack Obama and Russian President Vladimir Putin sharply disagreed Monday over the chaos in Syria, with Obama urging a political transition to replace the Syrian president but Putin warning it would be a mistake to abandon the current government. After dueling speeches at the United Nations General Assembly, Obama and Putin also met privately for 90 minutes — their first face-to-face encounter in nearly a year. At the heart of their dispute over Syria is the fate of embattled Syrian leader Bashar Assad, a Russian ally. The U.S. has long called for Assad to leave power, while Russia has cast the Syrian government as the only viable option for confronting the Islamic State, a militant group that has taken advantage of the vacuum created by the civil war. During his address to the U.N., Obama declared, “We must recognize that there cannot be, after so much bloodshed, so much carnage, a return to the prewar status quo.” Putin, speaking shortly after the U.S. president, urged the world to stick with Assad. “We believe it’s a huge mistake to refuse to cooperate with the Syrian authorities, with the government forces, those who are bravely fighting terror face-to-face,” Putin said during his first appearance at the U.N. gathering in a decade. Obama and Putin’s disparate views of the grim situation in Syria left little indication of how the two countries might work together to end a conflict that has killed more than 250,000 people and resulted in a flood of refugees. Indeed, the leaders’ private meetings ended with vague statements about the need for a political resolution to the crisis, but no clear pathway for making that happen. The crisis has taken on fresh urgency amid Russia’s recent military buildup in Syria. Putin has cast the increased presence of equipment and troops in Syria as part of the effort to defeat the Islamic State, and suggested Monday that Russia could launch airstrikes against the militants.
House scrambles to fill GOP’s top jobs WASHINGTON — A chaotic scramble is on to fill the top GOP jobs in the House following Speaker John Boehner’s surprise resignation. Now the same conservatives who pushed him out are maneuvering to yank the next leadership team to the right. The frenzied action under the Capitol Dome will help determine how Congress contends with upcoming battles on keeping the government running and avoiding a federal default — and whether Republicans can take back the White House next year. The front-runner for the speaker’s job, Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, made his candidacy official Monday in a letter to fellow GOP lawmakers in which he pledged to fight for conservative principles and listen to all members — something Boehner was accused of failing to do.

President Barack Obama and Russia’s President Vladimir Putin meet the media before holding a bilateral meeting Monday at United Nations headquarters in New York.
“We are thinking about it and don’t exclude anything,” he said. It’s unlikely Putin would join the U.S.-led coalition already launching strikes against the militants. He said Russia will only take such a step in accordance with international law, and criticized the U.S. and its allies for striking the Syrian territory without U.N. permission. The Syria crisis largely overshadowed the summit’s other discussions on peacekeeping, climate change and global poverty. French President Francois Hollande backed Obama’s call for Assad’s ouster, saying “nobody can imagine” a political solution in Syria if he is still in power. Hollande called on countries with influence in Syria, including Gulf nations and Iran, to be engaged in a transition. However, Iran — which along with Russia is a strong backer of Assad — said the Syrian president must remain in power to fight extremists. Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said that while Syria’s government needs reform, the country will fall to the Islamic State if the international community makes getting rid of
Assad its top goal. Despite Obama’s staunch opposition to Assad remaining in office, the U.S. has struggled to push him from power. Russia has long been a major obstacle, shielding Assad from U.N. sanctions and continuing to provide the Syrian government with weapons. In fact, Russia has appeared to deepen its support for Assad in recent weeks, sending additional military equipment and troops with the justification that it is helping the government fight the Islamic State. The military buildup has confounded U.S. officials, who spent the summer hoping Russia’s patience with Assad was waning and political negotiations could be started. Obama and Putin each framed his case for Syria’s future in the context of a broader approach to the world, launching veiled criticisms at each other. The U.S. president condemned nations that believe “might makes right,” and sought instead to highlight the benefits of diplomacy. He touted his administration’s efforts to restore ties with Cuba after a half-century freeze and the completion of a nuclear
accord with Iran, noting that Russia was a key partner in negotiating the Iran deal. Putin, without naming the United States, accused Washington of trying to enforce its will on others and mulling a possible reform of the U.N., which he suggested stands in the way of the perceived U.S. domination. “After the end of the Cold War, the single center of domination has emerged in the world,” Putin said. “Those who have found themselves on top of that pyramid were tempted to think that since they are so strong and singular, they know what to do better than others and it’s unnecessary to pay any attention to the U.N.” Obama and Putin briefly shook hands during a leaders’ lunch that followed the morning of speeches. Seated at the same table, they clinked glasses during a toast, with Putin smiling and Obama grim-faced. The leaders have long had a strained relationship, with ties deteriorating to post-Cold War lows after Russia annexed Crimea from Ukraine and allegedly backed rebels in Ukraine’s east. The U.S. has sought to punish Russia through economic
Mars may have flowing water By Marcia Dunn Associated Press
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — Mars appears to be flowing with rivulets of salty water, at least in the summer, scientists reported Monday in a finding that boosts the odds of life on the red planet. “It suggests that it would be possible for there to be life today on Mars,” NASA’s science mission chief, John Grunsfeld, said at a news conference. Scientists in 2008 confirmed the existence of frozen water on Mars. Now instruments aboard NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter have yielded the strongest evidence yet that salt water in liquid form trickles down certain Martian slopes each summer, according to the researchers. “Mars is not the dry, arid planet that we thought of in the past,” said Jim Green, director of planetary science for NASA. “Under certain circumstances, liquid water has been found on Mars.” The rivulets — if that’s what they are, since the evidence for their existence is indirect — are about 12 to 15 feet wide and 300 feet or more long, scientists said. “What we’re dealing with is wet soil, thin layers of wet soil, not standing water,” said Alfred McEwen of the University of Arizona at Tucson, the principal scientist for the
ACROSS THE U.S.

This undated photo taken by an instrument aboard the NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter shows dark, narrow, 100-meter-long streaks on the surface of Mars that scientists believe were caused by flowing streams of salty water.
Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter’s high-resolution imaging experiment. Because liquid water is essential to life, the findings could have major implications for the possibility of Martian life. The researchers said in the journal Nature Geoscience that further exploration is warranted to determine whether microscopic life exists on the planet. McEwen said he, for one, believes the possibility of life on Mars to be “very high,” though it would be microbial and somewhere in the Martian crust. The presence of liquid water also could make life easier for astronauts visiting or living on Mars. Water could be used for drinking and for creating oxygen and rocket fuel. NASA’s
goal is to send humans there in the 2030s. The evidence of flowing water consists largely of dark, narrow streaks on the surface that tend to appear and grow during the warmest Martian months and fade the rest of the year. Mars is extremely cold even in summer, and the streaks are in places where the temperature is as low as minus-10 degrees Fahrenheit. But salt can lower the freezing point of water and melt ice. The source of the water is a mystery. Scientists noted it could be melting ice, an underground aquifer, water vapor from the thin Martian atmosphere, or some combination. The streaks were spotted by the orbiter’s high-resolution, telescopic camera. Another
on-board instrument detected the chemical signature of salt compounds combined with water. Michael Meyer, lead scientist for NASA’s Mars exploration program, said the only definitive way for now to determine whether there’s life on Mars is to collect rocks and soil for analysis on Earth — something a U.S. lander set for liftoff in 2020 will do. Now that scientists know what they’re looking for, a better, more methodical search can be carried out, Green said. The idea of water — and life — on Mars has been irresistible to earthlings for generations. In 1877, Italian astronomer Giovanni Schiaparelli spied what he called “canali” on Mars — Italian for “channels” — but the word was mistranslated as “canals” in English, causing imaginations to run wild. In the early 1900s, amateur astronomer Percival Lowell claimed to have spotted irrigation canals and theorized they were built by Martians. In 2008, NASA’s Phoenix spacecraft landed on Mars and confirmed the long-suspected presence of ice in the soil. The lead author of the research paper, Lujendra Ojha, is a Ph.D. candidate at Georgia Institute of Technology. For NASA, at least, the timing couldn’t be better. This Friday, the NASA-approved movie “The Martian” has its premiere.
The FBI will begin collecting and providing to the public more information about police shootings of civilians, FBI Director James Comey said Monday as the agency released annual data on crime nationwide. Federal law enforcement officials have acknowledged in the last year a lack of reliable data about how often police officers use force in the line of duty. As part of its Uniform Crime Reporting program, the FBI tracks the number of police officers who are slain, as well as the number of justifiable homicides by police that are reported by law enforcement agencies. But that data are known to be incomplete since it is voluntary for police departments to feed data into the FBI’s system, and little more than a third of local agencies do it, Comey said.
Illinois: Hastert plea deal A possible plea deal is being discussed for former U.S. House Speaker Dennis Hastert, who is accused of skirting federal banking laws in an attempt to pay someone $3.5 million to hide claims of past misconduct, prosecutors and defense attorneys told a federal judge Monday. The disclosure came during a pre-trial hearing in U.S. District Court in Chicago, though no details about a possible deal or its terms were released. Hastert didn’t attend the hearing. Hastert has pleaded not guilty to violating banking laws and lying to the FBI. He remains free on bond.
AROUND THE WORLD U.N.: Malaria eradication Malaria could be wiped out by 2040, despite the lack of an effective vaccine, previous failed attempts to eradicate the disease and drug resistance problems, the United Nations and Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates said in a report released Monday. Gates and Ray Chambers, the U.N. secretary-general’s special envoy for malaria, said getting rid of the parasitic disease could ultimately save 11 million lives and provide $2 trillion in economic benefits. Gates’ foundation has been one of the major donors to malaria control programs. The report calls for a doubling of the money spent on malaria by 2025 and new ways to control the mosquitoes that spread the disease.
Afghanistan: Taliban captures strategic city The Taliban captured the strategic northern city of Kunduz on Monday in a multi-pronged attack involving hundreds of fighters, the first time the insurgents have seized a major urban area since the 2001 U.S.-led invasion. The fast-moving assault took military and intelligence agencies by surprise as the insurgents descended on the city, one of Afghanistan’s richest and the target of repeated Taliban offensives following the withdrawal last year of U.S. and NATO combat troops.
Saudi Arabia: Hajj toll Saudi Arabia has given foreign diplomats some 1,100 photographs of the dead from last week’s hajj crush and stampede, Indian and Pakistani authorities said, an indication of a significantly higher death toll than previously offered by the kingdom. Saudi officials could not be reached for comment Monday night about the discrepancy in the toll of the disaster in Mina. The Saudi Health Ministry’s latest figures, released Saturday, put the toll at 769 people killed and 934 injured. From Herald news services

Shell abandons Arctic drilling By Dan Joling and Jonathan Fahey Associated Press
ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Royal Dutch Shell has abandoned its long quest to become the first company to produce oil in Alaska’s Arctic waters, darkening the nation’s long-term oil prospects and delighting environmental groups that tried to block the project. After years of effort, Shell is leaving the region “for the foreseeable future” because it failed to find enough oil to make further drilling worthwhile. The company has spent more than $7 billion on the effort, slogged through a regulatory gauntlet and fought environmental groups that feared a spill in the harsh climate would be difficult to clean up and devastating to polar bears, walruses, seals and other wildlife. Shell persisted in hopes of finding a big new source of oil revenue and establishing expertise and a presence in the Arctic, which geologists estimate holds a quarter of the world’s undiscovered conventional oil and gas. The drilling project also held the hopes of Alaska, which has seen oil production and revenues decline sharply in recent years, and the U.S. oil industry,

which looked to Alaska’s offshore Arctic as the next source of oil big enough to keep the country among the top three oil producers in the world along with Saudi Arabia and Russia. But Shell drilled to 6,800 feet about 80 miles offshore in the Chukchi Sea off Alaska’s northwest coast and just didn’t find much. “Shell continues to see important exploration potential in the basin, and the area is likely to
ultimately be of strategic importance to Alaska and the U.S.,” Marvin Odum, director of Shell’s operations in the Americas, said in a statement issued late Sunday. “However, this is a clearly disappointing exploration outcome for this part of the basin.” Known in the industry as turning up a “dry hole,” it’s common for exploratory drilling to find little to no oil, especially in formations that have not been explored much in the past.
But Shell’s failure is notable because it was the only active drilling project in the sea, which Shell officials had called “a potential game-changer,” a vast untapped reservoir that could add to America’s energy supply for 50 years. As recently as March, an Energy Department advisory council called for an immediate expansion of oil exploration in the See SHELL, Page A8
Grocery chain Whole Foods is cutting about 1,500 jobs over the next eight weeks as it looks to lower prices and keep up with competition. The cuts represent about 1.6 percent of its workforce.

It anticipates workers whose jobs are cut will find other jobs from the almost 2,000 open positions across the company or from jobs created by more than 100 new stores in development.

Tough fix for VW cheating By Tom Krisher Associated Press
DETROIT — Volkswagen faces daunting challenges in fixing software that enables cheating on diesel engine emissions tests, a task that’s becoming more urgent because of growing anger from customers. The company has set aside $7.3 billion to pay for the scandal. But experts say it’s likely to cost much more as VW tries to comply with U.S. clean air regulations while appeasing diesel owners who paid extra for the cars, thinking they could help the environment without sacrificing performance. “We understand that owners of the cars affected by the emissions compliance issues are upset,”
VW said on a consumer website launched Sunday. The company asked for patience and said it would address the issue as fast as it can. A spokeswoman wouldn’t comment further. But experts said VW will have to strike a careful balance to appease government regulators, make customers happy and avoid emptying the company cash box. A cheap remedy of software fixes likely would hurt performance and gas mileage, further antagonizing customers. A more expensive fix that adds a treatment system wouldn’t hurt performance, but it would cost thousands per car and by one analyst’s estimate, could total more than $20 billion including vehicles in the U.S. and Europe.
That’s in addition to a potential $18 billion fine in the U.S. and the cost of numerous classaction lawsuits alleging that VW’s cheating reduced the value of its customers’ cars. The scandal broke Sept. 18, when the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the California Air Resources Board accused VW of installing secret software on 2-liter four-cylinder diesel engines that turned on pollution controls for lab tests and shut them off during real-world driving. As a result, 482,000 Jettas, Beetles, Golfs and Passats from the 2009 to 2015 model years belched out 10 to 40 times as much See VW, Page A8

Former VW boss investigated BERLIN — German prosecutors Monday opened an investigation against former Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn to establish what his role was in the emissions-rigging scandal. The investigation will concentrate on the suspicion of fraud committed through the sale of vehicles with manipulated emissions data, and aims to determine who was responsible, prosecutors in Braunschweig said.
Air bag recalls could expand DETROIT — Seven more companies including electric car maker Tesla Motors could be facing recalls because they use air bag inflators made by Takata Corp., according to letters they received last week from U.S. safety regulators. So far, about 23.4 million Takata driver and passenger air bag inflators have been recalled on 19.2 million U.S. vehicles sold by 11 different companies, including Honda and Fiat Chrysler. The inflators can explode with too much force, spewing metal shrapnel. At least eight people have died worldwide and hundreds have been injured because of the problem.

The treatment involves adding a tank of a chemical called urea, which enables the cars to separate nitrogen oxide into harmless nitrogen and oxygen. That would cost $2,000 or more per car, DeLorenzo said. Engineers would have to find room for a tank to store the blue urea fluid, which has to be refilled about every 7,500 miles, DeLorenzo said.

VW probably tried to avoid urea systems in the beginning because their cost would have driven Jetta and Golf prices above competitors, especially gas-electric hybrids, DeLorenzo said. Now, adding it after the fact will cost even more, he said. The scandal has forced Volkswagen to tell U.S. dealers not to sell cars with the suspect diesel engines. VW said Sunday that it’s working to get government approval to sell 2016 models with updated engines “which we believe do not have any of the issues the government has identified in other vehicles.”

IN OUR VIEW | Snohomish County budget
Change county car allowance Symbolic efforts have their place; such a move can at least acknowledge a problem and continue the discussion toward a solution. Not, however, when they might create more problems than they might solve, which is why the Snohomish County Council didn’t move forward with a proposal to freeze hiring of county employees last week. Council Member Brian Sullivan withdrew his proposal first made in August, citing what he sees as an improved budget picture for the county and the fact a freeze wouldn’t have saved the county much money with only three months remaining in the year. It also would have created other problems, said some county officials, including Auditor Carolyn Weikel, who will need to hire temporary employees during November’s general election. But another issue offers a second chance for a mostly symbolic gesture that might save the county a little money and gain it some public trust. A county financial analyst
filed a complaint this spring, pointing out what he saw as a problem in how the county determines the monthly vehicle reimbursement for several county officials. Eight of 11 county officials, including all five county council members, who use their personal vehicle for county business, receive a monthly stipend of $596.32. The analyst, a county employee, earlier attempted in 2013 to recalculate the formula for the rate and suggested the county pay only $317 monthly, then later $401.97 a month, according to last week’s story by Herald Writer Noah Haglund. The employee’s attempts to adjust the formula were rebuffed and the rate was set at $596.32. Following the employee’s complaint, the county hired an investigator — for $10,000 — to look at the matter. The investigator’s report attributed the difference to a matter of opinion in how to interpret the county’s code regarding how the reimbursement rate is figured. The rate Snohomish County
uses may not be out of line. Pierce County officials, Haglund’s story notes, receive a monthly reimbursement of $685. Even the lowest reimbursement rate, $317 monthly, wasn’t going to make a great difference in the county budget. The difference between the formulas would have amounted to $26,784 in annual savings. That’s not much next to the $10,000 it spent to investigate the matter. But that reimbursement, which is intended to cover gas, maintenance, repairs, insurance and depreciation, needs to be recognized for what it is: It’s a perk. It’s a perk that’s meant as part of the compensation package for 11 county officials. The reimbursement is not claimed by Executive John Lovick, Clerk Sonya Kraski or Prosecuting Attorney Mark Roe. This isn’t to suggest that county officials not be compensated for the use of their personal vehicles. As part of their responsibilities they do use their own cars for county
business. King County reimburses its county council members on a mileage basis, using the federal rate for business deductions set by the Internal Revenue Service of 57.5 cents per mile, a deduction that is intended to recognize the same costs of using a personal vehicle as noted above. Snohomish County employees also are reimbursed using a per-mile rate. Still, at the federal mileage rate, a county official would have to drive more than 1,000 miles a month on county business to come close to that $596 monthly stipend. The county code would have to be changed to allow for a switch to a per-mile reimbursement. And again this isn’t going to solve much of a budget gap. But the County Council should consider whether the perk of a monthly vehicle reimbursement is necessary to attract and retain public officials, elected or hired, and whether changing it, a mostly symbolic effort, would be worth a small gain in the public trust.

I will never buy an online subscription to this paper. I use this website for one thing and that is to review the prep football scores, which this paper does a horrible job of reporting. Going to this section (High School Sports) on a Saturday morning, a user has to guess and click all over the place to find scores from the previous night, this should be brainless task, there should be a section here that simply lists the results of the previous night’s games; but with this disorganized format it’s made to be a ridiculous chore. If I pick the school from the drop down menu and choose football You still don’t list the scores there, how ignorant is that? But if you want to see information from last year, which nobody cares about, because it is from last year it’s right smack on the front page. This is an unbelievable joke. You’ll never see a dime from me. Whomever is responsible for this section should be fired. John Sibley Jr. San Diego

Art destroyed in religion’s name The destruction of antiquities in Syria and Buddha statues in Afghanistan by Islamic militants were senseless acts. We actually had a similar incident years ago here in our part of the world. Villages of native peoples here, up to Alaska, had totem poles, some were huge — those wood carvers had a lot of skill, and were real artists. When the Christian missionaries arrived, they destroyed every pole they could find, many hundreds, maybe thousands, thinking they were worshipped. Actually they were story poles, part of their history and culture. If you get to Alaska, Ketchikan has a couple of the old ones left. Damon Davis Everett

To people who say, “we can afford them,” they are taking more of the resources pie to do it, thereby upping the costs for those who cannot, and it is selfish and self-centered.

That may sound like a good thing for the Democrats, but must the entire nation suffer in the process? As in those dreams of frustration, we’d find ourselves stuck back on a bus with a mad political minority at the wheel. But you know, these people aren’t wrong about everything. Anger over Wall Street’s grip on Washington is widely shared. If Republican primary voters haven’t taken kindly to hedge fund titans throwing Jeb Bush $100,000-a-plate fundraisers, that’s understandable. Amid Donald Trump’s Niagara Falls of stupid verbiage come well-placed denunciations of tax breaks for private equity moguls. However, there’s something truly creepy in hearing the newly empowered tea party “leaders” relish in their power to punish. And is it too much to ask that they learn the meaning of “full faith and credit of the United States” — and its import to the country’s well-being? The tea party agitators might also look into the reality of government programs that benefit their many elder comrades. No, Medicare isn’t manna from heaven (Exodus 16). And no, few beneficiaries paid for what they get. Most Medicare spending comes out of taxpayer subsidies. You will not hear these people called conservatives here. The Republican Party of my father valued stability and sound fiscal stewardship. My dad opposed what he considered high taxes and unnecessary regulation, but he felt no need to despise Democrats, a group that included his wife. You will not hear the tea party hotheads called patriots, either. They can wear hats and quote the Founding Fathers out of context all day long. In reality, they don’t seem to like their country much. America is a much bigger place than the sliver that stares back at them in their narrow mirrors. The business community is already bracing. What it needs is basic stuff — restoration of the Export-Import Bank, a U.S. highway system in decent repair and NO repeat of the debt ceiling fiasco of 2011. The Republican hard-line right promises none of it. Its assumption may be that grown-ups will appear at the last minute — all over again — and pull America out of the fire of a devastating default on U.S. debt. But some tea partyers undoubtedly believe at the bottom of their hearts that default would be no big deal. Even though adults did pull the country through that human-made crisis, America was not left whole. Standard & Poor’s stripped the U.S. of its triple-A credit rating. This ordeal and budget cliffhangers that followed continue to drag on the American economy, according to 77 percent of the economists surveyed last month by The Wall Street Journal. The most frightening part isn’t what the right-wingers want to do. It’s that they want to do it all over again. Equally scary, the Republican mainstream, unable to contain them last time, may be even more powerless this time.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Your article on Bothell’s new city hall overlooked an important fact. (Sept. 18 article, “Bothell close to opening new city hall.”) The city will pay 24 years of lease payments, which will start at $3.1 million a year, and end at $3.3 million a year in 2039. That means the new city hall, when all is said and done, will cost in excess of $75 million. That is $1,460 per square foot, $1,786 per Bothell resident, and $630,252 for each member of staff that will be working there. Bet most of the staff could figure out a better way to spend that kind of money. I sure could. Things like training for the first responders, sidewalks and safe pedestrian crossings, more parks, safer roads, more open space, revitalization of Main Street and a transportation system that buffers neighborhoods.

Buses From Page A1
They add to an existing fleet of 23 double-deckers that went into service in 2011, starting with Route 413 from Lynnwood to Seattle. Once all the new tall buses hit the streets by early next year, they will represent almost a fifth of CT’s overall fleet, CT vehicle maintenance manager Ken Bailey said. The oldest of Community Transit’s articulated buses, which were built in 1998, are nearing the end of their expected lifespan of more than a half million miles. The agency hopes to keep the tall buses in service for at least that long. Seventeen of the new double-deckers are intended to replace older articulated buses. Five others will represent new service, adding a combined 300 extra seats every weekday. CT touts the tall buses over the articulated models on several fronts. For starters, they cost less to operate per passenger. They’re also better for winter conditions. The drive wheels on the articulated buses are in the back, behind the midsection that bends. “It’s like pushing a wet noodle,” Bailey said. “Under snowy conditions, we’d prefer not to operate them.” The double-deckers also seat more passengers: 80 compared to 60 on the articulated models. With standing room, they can hold up to 100 people. “These buses make sense on our commuter routes,” Munguia said. Standard CT buses are 40 feet long and seat about 40 people.

Coach manufacturer Alexander Dennis makes iconic double-decker buses in use in London. Although based in Great Britain, the company built the new CT Double Talls at a plant in Nappanee, Indiana. All new buses undergo inspections and significant modifications once they reach Everett. Even with no major problems, it can take a month for them to hit the road. “It’s not like a passenger car that you buy in the showroom,” Bailey said. At the agency’s Hardeson Road facility last week, workers outfitted the new double-deckers with equipment to read ORCA passes, computer-aided radio systems and GPS. CT inspectors found the issues with the first halfdozen new Double Talls during routine checks, Munguia said. They were concerned with the inter deck, the structure that serves as the roof of the firstfloor compartment and the floor of the second level. “It wasn’t anything that would have been a safety issue right away; it had more to do with the longterm durability,” Munguia said. The agency decided to fix the problem before the buses went into service, rather than pulling them out later for repairs. Bailey said it’s common to find glitches on newly delivered buses and that Alexander Dennis has been more responsive than most manufacturers in addressing them. CT reports that it now operates the second-largest fleet of double-decker buses in the United States. Only the transit area for the Las Vegas area has more.

bicycles, compared with two for most bike racks on CT buses. Powered by an 8.9-liter straight-six-cylinder Cummins diesel engine. Cost per bus: $897,508, including tax. Federal and state grants paid for 80 percent of 17 buses that are replacing older articulated buses; CT is paying the whole cost of the other five.
Hospital could lose federal funds Associated Press SEATTLE — Washington state’s largest psychiatric hospital could lose millions of federal dollars for failing to ensure the safety of a patient who was tied down and sedated when another patient attacked him with a shoe and fist, causing serious injuries. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services sent Western State Hospital a 90-day termination notice last week that said the Lakewood facility violated program rules that require it to protect its patients’ safety and rights. The warning was the latest in a list of troubles facing the state’s mental health system. A federal judge issued a permanent
Tolls From Page A1
put the travel time from Lynnwood to Bellevue at 70 minutes in the general purpose lanes, compared to 20 minutes in the express toll lanes. Tolls hopped between 75 cents and $2.50 during the morning commute. The average was $1.50. Not everyone who used the toll lanes had a seamless experience, however. Just getting to the lanes proved to be a problem for many Snohomish County commuters, particularly those coming from Highway 522, who described the nearest toll entry as very difficult to get to across so many lanes of thick traffic. The express toll lanes are separated from regular traffic by double white lines, which are illegal to cross. Access to the toll lanes is limited to directaccess ramps and to designated entry and exit points marked by dashed white lines. Karen Swift’s commute from Snohomish to Bellevue normally takes 45 minutes. On Monday, it was almost twice that. Even with leaving the house at 6 a.m., it took an hour and 10 minutes for Swift to finally reach a toll lane entrance.

injunction against the state’s two psychiatric hospitals in April for failing to provide timely competency services to mentally ill people charged with crimes. And the brother of a patient who died after choking on an orange in a hospital dayroom while staff walked around him is suing the workers. Western State Hospital must submit a plan to address the violations by next week and have the deficiencies fixed by Dec. 2, or the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services will end both Medicare and Medicaid funding, Stephanie Magill, spokeswoman for CMS, told The Associated Press. “The health and safety of our beneficiaries is our
highest priority,” she said. The hospital receives $4.7 million from Medicaid and $11.2 million from Medicare annually, said Kathy Spears, spokeswoman for the Washington Department of Social and Health Services. Victoria Roberts, deputy assistant for the state Behavioral Health & Service Integration Administration, said they are working on a plan to fix the problems and they intend to meet the deadlines so no funds will be lost. Two patients, identified only as #1 and #2, argued often, according to the investigators’ Sept. 3 report. Patient #1 would “whisper to (#2)...you need to go back to your homeland” and they would erupt
into “verbal altercations.” They had an argument at 8 p.m. Aug. 15, and patient #2 threw liquid at patient #1, who responded with a punch, the report said. When they kept trying to get at each other, hospital officials placed patient #1 in seclusion. They gave him drugs and put him in a five-point restraint, the report said. At about 1:50 a.m., the other patient walked past staff and assaulted the man who was being restrained, “causing a nasal fracture, facial lacerations and facial trauma,” the report said. He was taken to the hospital and after being treated was brought back to the same ward as the patient who assaulted him, the report said.
Traffic was backed up all the way up Highway 9 into Snohomish. “I hopped in as soon as I could, and the HOV lanes were wide open, so I breezed to work in about another 15 minutes,” she said. It was the worst commute she’s had in her nearly two years driving the route. Swift used to carpool but lost that arrangement in the switch to tolling. On Monday, she used her Flex Pass on “toll” mode as a solo driver to use the far left lanes. “I am hoping people get more accustomed to the new lanes by next week and the flow will be better,” she said. Tony Czaban of Stanwood finally grew tired enough of the backup to try and merge into the toll lane Monday morning. “But I did not do so at the right time and hit double whites, so I just got off and drove through Bothell instead,” he said. “I am very curious to see if this was a blip or if this is the new reality,” he said. If things don’t improve, state Rep. Mark Harmsworth says he’ll seek to suspend tolls. The Mill Creek Republican — who is a member of the House Transportation Committee and earlier this year tried unsuccessfully to block the carpool
occupancy change — tracked the morning commute via the state’s traffic cameras. “I felt like the state should be turning it up slowly rather than turning it up all the way on the first day,” Harmsworth said. WSDOT leaders say delays were expected and part of a normal ramp-up. Overall, traffic times in the corridor were close to average, with toll lane drivers saving about 30 minutes in the morning, according to WSDOT figures. The evening commute was similar. At 5:30 p.m., Bellevue-toLynnwood travel times were running 45 minutes in the general purpose lanes compared to the 39-minute average, and 15 minutes in the toll lanes. “This is a big change for drivers, and we expected that the first commute would be slower than usual,” WSDOT Assistant Secretary Craig Stone said. “Over time, drivers will get comfortable with this system, and the highway will begin to operate more efficiently in both the express toll lanes and the regular lanes.” Meanwhile, Washington State Patrol troopers were looking for drivers violating the rules. Those who cross double white lines or who try to cheat the lane’s toll-free carpool perk with fewer than three
people at peak hours risk a $136 ticket. Early indications show approximately 55 percent of vehicles in the express toll lanes had a Good To Go pass, according to WSDOT. Pay-by-mail travelers should expect to see a bill arrive in the mail in about two weeks, showing the toll at the time of entry plus a $2 fee. For those with Good To Go accounts, express toll lane trip information is not expected to appear in the system for several days. Drivers with a Flex Pass in HOV mode will not see any trip information on their account. Some drivers reported not being able to get Flex Passes, which sold out at some retail locations. The passes are required for carpools to drive toll-free. The fastest way to buy a Flex Pass is through select QFC, Fred Meyer or Walgreens stores (go to www.wsdot.wa.gov/ G oodToG o/retail.htm for a list). But customers should call ahead to confirm inventory. The passes also must be linked to an active Good To Go account in order to work. The Good To Go customer service phone line (866-936-8246) and walk-in customer service centers have been experiencing long wait times. There also is a website, at mygoodtogo.com.

NOHOMISH — Andy’s Fish House delivers, but there’s a catch. You have to be in a boat and under the bridge. What’s up with that? Restaurant owner Andy Gibbs delivers food by fishing pole. He reels it over the side of the bridge, about a 40-foot drop to the river below. “There’s a lot of hungry fishermen out there, might as well capitalize,” Gibbs said. “When I’m on a boat, I get hungry. I want to eat. ” He began offering the service a few weeks ago. “It’s a convenient thing. I only have to walk 20 feet,” said Gibbs, 25, who uses social media to advertise. The fish house on First Street sits on the high banks of the Snohomish River by the bridge on Airport Way. “There’s no fishing from the bridge,” Gibbs said, “but it doesn’t say anything about delivering fish.” Just call in the order and an ETA to be under the bridge and he’s there, with the goods and toting his great-grandfather’s Viking halibut fishing rod. The food is put inside an insulated grocery bag hooked onto heavyduty fishing line that could hold up to 140 pounds. So far, Gibbs hasn’t had orders that big, but he’s ready. Everything on the menu except alcohol can be a to-go drop. Catfish po’ boys. Steamed clams. Mussels. Oysters on the half shell. “I’ll put anything in a box,” Gibbs said. Orders are packed tightly, but dangling from a string isn’t foolproof. “Usually people in a boat aren’t too picky,” Gibbs said. “They don’t go, ‘Oh, no, the tartar spilled on my fries.’ ” The tartar didn’t spill on a recent fish and chips delivery he made to Nick Davey and Ben Davis, both 17. The Snohomish teens had been out on the water for

Minutes later, Gibbs lowered the black thermal bag over the metal railing to the fishing boat as passing motorists rumbled by on the bridge. The chow arrived intact and hot. Nick gave a thumbs up to Gibbs and dug in. “It was cool to get gourmet food while fishing,” Nick said later. Fish and chips are gourmet? Nick said packing grub is usually an afterthought. “It’s stuff I can grab from the house, a bag of chips and PB and jelly,” Nick said. “When you are going fishing you just want to get fishing.” Orders can be paid ahead by credit card or with cash in the bag hoisted back up upon delivery. “For cash, I ask they round it up to the nearest buck,” Gibbs said. In other words, he isn’t going to lower down change. Gibbs grew up working in the restaurant when it was his dad’s Chuck’s Seafood Grotto. “I bussed my first table when I was 6,” he said. Gibbs took over ownership last year when his dad retired. He changed it to his name, got rid of some of the old lobster traps, nets, crab pots and crusty seafaring decor, painted the exterior and tweaked the menu. He carried on the tradition of making it a fun, friendly place to eat, drink and unwind. Gibbs, a lanky red-haired guy with a wide grin and easy

in the fall soups will be a big hit. Clam chowder. Gumbo. I’m working on a smoked salmon chowder now,” he said. Perfect for date night on the river. “There’s a lot of people who don’t fish but they wouldn’t mind eating on the water,” Gibbs said. “If someone wanted a pizza delivered, we could work it out. The pole was passed down from my great-grandfather. Now it’s my turn.”

Stocker, 52, and his wife, Janet, operate Stocker Farms, a fourthgeneration 100-acre family farm in Snohomish. He’s president of the Snohomish Valley Festival of Pumpkins Marketing Association and on the board of Northwest Agricultural Business Center. He and Janet have been married 29 years and have two sons. The season’s farm activities benefit Strong Against Cancer. More at www.stockerfarms.com. What are you wearing? A sweat-stained Ducks Unlimited hat, a Carhartt T-shirt, Carhartt double-knee denim jeans and work boots. If you could share a beer with anyone alive or in history who would it be? Benjamin Franklin. The man liked his beer. Besides, I have some questions about the Constitution. Three things in your tool shed: As we gear up for the fall season you can find in my tool shed 100 paintball markers and a million paintballs (literally) to go with them, three apple cannons and three dozen little yellow rubber ducks. People would be shocked to know ... I am a licensed civil engineer with a business degree from UC Berkeley. Best thing anybody ever said to you? I’ve had several former employees comment on how much they learned working for us as their first job. That felt particularly rewarding. What is your most proud moment? I’ve been blessed with many successes. My most recent moment of pride came when my eldest son and his fiancé asked me to officiate their wedding. It was a once in a lifetime opportunity. Biggest worry as a farmer? Sounds cliche, but, the weather. Can’t control it but our crops and seasons thrive or fail based on it. Did you ever consider leaving the patch to do something else? Actually, I did leave the farm to go to college. My wife, Janet, and I lived in the Bay Area for 11 years before returning to the farm to raise our young sons. Pet peeve: The double standard that government and politicians live by versus the common people they represent. Guilty pleasure: Ben & Jerry’s Cherry Garcia ice cream. What’s the most unusual thing to do with a pumpkin? Using an extra-large variety called Atlantic Giant, take off the top, carve it hollow, mount a small trolling motor to it and turn it into a boat. Best way to eat pumpkin? Janet makes a pumpkin cake topped with cream cheese icing and chopped walnuts that is to die for. What’s a question I should have asked? Most people ask what do farmers do all winter when they’re not working. The answer is we are always working. Most farmers in my industry have diversified into other direct marketing segments to guard against a down year in any one area. We raise U-pick blueberries, U-cut Christmas trees and have even started hosting weddings on the farm in addition to the fall festival and haunted attractions we operate. As a result we have things that need doing all winter long in preparation for our busiest seasons in the summer and fall. That being said, I really like February. — Andrea Brown Do you know someone we should get to know better? Send suggestions to abrown@heraldnet.com or call 425-339-3443.

Well-paying job unsatisfying to 30-year-old
DAILY CROSSWORD
Adapted from a recent online discussion. Hi, Carolyn: I have a very well-paying job that I don’t hate, but I’m SO bored and unmotivated. I’ve built a life around this salary (mortgage, car, vacation, etc.), but I keep wondering if I settled too quickly to find a career I’m passionate about. I’m in my early 30s. Is it too late? How do I start over exploring new opportunities without losing some of what I built? I would happily take a pay cut to be more fulfilled, but what if I lose the salary and I’m still not happy? ■ Finding a “Passion” Why don’t you give yourself a deadline — a year, say — to find more rewarding work, even if it’s just in a new department. In that year, you will: ■ Save every penny you can. Dispatch bad debt (car), trim luxury expenses, stay local during your time off. Restructure your lifestyle both to recapture some of that money and to get accustomed to living on less, so that you’re ready if and when a career change comes with a pay cut. ■ Do your homework. Talk with a career expert (start by calling your school’s career office) to get new ideas, and think both macro — “What have I always enjoyed
CAROLYN HAX TELL ME ABOUT IT and been good at?” — and micro — “What changes can I make right now to improve my workday?” Sometimes small tweaks can make a big difference. So can adjusting the ways you spend time outside of work. Not everyone has a passion-centered work life. Hardly. More often, people derive enough meaning from the life around their work that they’re fine with what they have to do to support it. I have my doubts, I should say in the interest of full disclosure, that passions can be found during a methodical search for them. Instead I think it’s a matter of just making the best choices for you at any given opportunity, and being open to where these take you. Re: Bored: I totally second the notion to look at things outside of work

that stir your passions. I think a lot of us were sold a bill of goods when we were young that our careers had to be something that we were passionate about. My parents certainly sang that line! And the guidance counselor in high school. And the career people at college. Hell, it came up at the graduation speech. Well, all the things I love to do wouldn’t pay! Seriously — how many motorcycle travelogues can the market support? So I do a job I’m not passionate about (but don’t hate, that’s critical) so I can pay for all those things I love to do. — Anonymous Re: Bored: Baby steps. A few years ago, I was in a similar situation. I adopted a mantra that I would do one thing every day to find a new job and one thing every day to make my current job better. The “thing” could be tiny — sending an email for the job search or chatting up a colleague to get a better sense of what he/she was working on. It took 18 months, but I eventually found a job that was a much better fit: same field and skill set, but public service-oriented. — Anonymous 2 Great advice in these, thanks.

Her great boyfriend’s one drawback: long fingernails
THE NEW YORK TIMES CROSSWORD PUZZLE
Dear Abby: I recently began dating a man who is kind, intelligent and fun. The only drawback I can see is that he keeps his fingernails long. I feel superficial confessing that something so seemingly petty is off-putting, but it is. Is it OK to make a request of a man regarding his physical appearance? If so, how do I broach the conversation? And if not, what can I do so it won’t bother me? — Put Off In Delaware Dear Put Off: Could this man be a guitarist and need the nails for strumming? If not, I don’t think it would be rude to casually ask him why he keeps his fingernails long. You might also suggest that the next time you go for a manicure he come along, and then suggest to him that men often get them and offer to treat him to one. If he has never experienced this, it might be a life-changing revelation. (That’s what I’d do.) Dear Abby: I have lived in the United States for 40 years. My first 32 years were spent in Puerto Rico, so I speak with an accent. My problem is almost everyone I meet asks me where I’m from. I usually try to disguise my discomfort by jokingly asking them to guess. The truth is, I feel singled out as being different and not belonging. My friends and family tell me I’m being too sensitive, that people are just curious. I say it’s rude to ask such a personal question of a total stranger. Would it be impolite for me to point out that they’re asking for very personal information? Am I being too sensitive? — Accented In Georgia Dear Accented: I think so. People are often curious when someone has an accent that is different from

DEAR ABBY theirs. I have a strong Midwestern accent, and people ask me where I’m from. They aren’t asking because they are nosy; they’re trying to be friendly. Many people in this country come from other places, and the more people who come here, the more often that question will be raised. Dear Abby: My four wonderful kids want to give their father and me a 50th wedding anniversary celebration next year. The problem is, everyone knows I’m an introvert who does not like going to parties. The thought of being the main focus of a big gathering fills me with dread. My husband, who is outgoing, says I should let them do it for us if it will make them happy. He would probably enjoy it, but for me it will just be something to suffer through. I’d rather do something with just the two of us — like see a Broadway show. What do you think? Do I have to do this, even though I don’t want to? — Rose Of Texas Dear Rose: I don’t think you should have to suffer, but a compromise might be the solution to your problem. Instead of a large gathering, why not have a family celebration with your children, their spouses and your grandchildren? And then, because you would like to see a Broadway show — go to New York for a “second honeymoon.” Universal Uclick

Australia may not let Chris Brown into country SYDNEY — Chris Brown’s plans to tour Down Under were in jeopardy on Sunday after the Australian government formally warned the troubled R&B singer that he is likely to be denied a visa because of his criminal conviction for assaulting pop star Rihanna. The immigration department issued Brown a “notice of intention to consider refusal,” giving him 28 days to present evidence as to why he should be allowed to enter the country, Immigration Minister Peter Dutton said in a statement. The notice comes just days after former Immigration Minister Michaelia Cash urged Dutton to refuse the 26-year-old American a visa on character grounds.
“People need to understand if you are going to commit domestic violence and then you want to travel around the world, there are going to be countries that say to you: ‘You cannot come in because you are not of the character we expect in Australia,”’ Cash, who is now minister for women, told reporters last week. The immigration department will decide whether to grant Brown a visa after the 28-day timeframe has expired. In a statement, Brown’s publicist, Nicole Perna, said the singer respected Australia’s right to review his visa request and has “faith that a decision will be made with the full consideration of his continued personal growth, on-going philanthropic

endeavors and desire to perform for his fans.” Australia isn’t the first country to consider rejecting Brown. Britain and Canada have also refused to give him visas. Brown was expected to arrive in Australia in December for a tour of Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth. Activists have been campaigning to ban
the singer from the country because of his brutal attack on his then-girlfriend, Rihanna, hours before the 2009 Grammy Awards. He pleaded guilty to felony assault and was freed from probation this year. Brown is also scheduled to play one show in Auckland, New Zealand, as part of his Down Under tour. But because he’s been banned from other countries, he would need a special visa to be allowed entry. Immigration New Zealand said in an email Monday that Brown has yet to apply for that visa. Despite the uncertainty hanging over the tour, tickets for Brown’s planned shows in both Australia and New Zealand went on sale Monday. Kristen Gelineau, Associated Press
THEATER
‘Newsroom’ star returns to familiar Broadway role NEW YORK — Jeff Daniels is going to get another bite of “Blackbird” — this time on Broadway. Nine years after he starred in the play offBroadway, the “Dumb & Dumber” and “Newsroom” star will get another crack early next year opposite Michelle Williams. Joe Mantello, who directed Daniels in it in 2007, is also returning. “I’ve wanted to come back to Broadway and there’s been some interest and some offers. But this felt like something that
would shake everybody up,” said Daniels. “I didn’t want to come back safe. And this isn’t safe. It’s what Broadway should be about.” David Harrower’s creepy play centers on an older man, a much younger woman and what happens when they meet 15 years after their brief relationship has ended. It’s a 90-minute, cat-and-mouse tale of guilt, revenge and sexual intrigue. Daniels calls the play “two people playing U.S.
Open tennis across a stage. I really look forward to that.” And like an athlete, Jeff Daniels he plans to give it his all: “There is only one way to do it. It’s got to cost you. You’ve got to leave it on the stage every night.” Daniels was last on Broadway in “God of Carnage” and his other plays there include “Redwood Curtain,” “The Golden
Age” and “Fifth of July.” Williams, a three-time Oscar-nominee, was last on Broadway in last season in “Cabaret.” Daniels said “God of Carnage” and “The Newsroom” have made him a better actor. “I’m anxious to come back to it as that actor and see what he does to it,” he said. “You get better. You get better until the day you die. But I can certainly tell a difference with the things I’ve done since then. “ Mark Kennedy, Associated Press

HOROSCOPE Happy Birthday: It’s time to tie up loose ends. Making a difference in your community or to the people you love will bring you satisfaction and help provide you with the experience to make positive changes to the world around you. Expect emotional matters to surface, forcing you to confront the personal issues you’ve thought about for so long. Your numbers are 8, 12, 21, 25, 33, 39, 47. ARIES (March 21-April 19): Emotional decisions will be clouded by false information. Make sure your motives and plans are realistic. Question what someone tells you. Make personal changes that will separate you from the competition. Someone special will make a positive move on your behalf. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Expand your interests and get involved in events or activities that are geared toward learning and trying new things. A personal problem with a lover, child or friend will leave you emotionally uncertain regarding your future. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Get out and engage in activities that will put you in contact with new and exciting people, but don’t overspend. A personal improvement will bring you closer to someone you love. Don’t let the changes others make influence you. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Focus on making personal improvements, not trying to change others. Opposition will mount if you criticize others or try to control someone you live with. Spend more time with the people you love most. ★★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You will discover information that will change your course of action and the way you feel about others and your future prospects. Indulge in something that will update your look or improve your state of mind. Travel plans can be made. ★★★★★

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Make time for some lively entertainment, or get involved in a physical activity that will motivate you to stay in shape. As long as you don’t overdo it, you will maintain a healthy and happy mental, emotional and physical outlook. ★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You will be prone to changing your mind and dealing with people who don’t agree with the way you would like to do things. Consider the ways you can compromise and still get what you want or need to get ahead. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Broaden your outlook and consider how you can alter the way you live in order to make personal or professional gains. Choose to do things differently, and you will stand out in competitive situations and be more satisfied. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You can talk your way into a deal, a new position or someone’s heart. Your outgoing, spontaneous nature will bring plenty of action your way. A chance to make a positive change to your appearance will boost your ego. ★★★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Stick to what you know and do best. If you are too engaged in doing all the talking and don’t listen to others, you will end up in an emotional situation that will try your patience. ★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Talk about change and then put your plans into motion. A chance to try out something that has been hyped up to sound amazing will end up disappointing you. Look for alternatives and you will come up with something better. ★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Don’t let your personal matters disrupt your productivity or professional dealings. Focus on equality and keeping everything you get involved in fair and just. It’s always better to give and take if you want to keep the peace and be successful. ★★★★ Universal Uclick

Mariners Seattle loses its sixth straight, falling 3-2 to the Astros, C2

Mariners pick Dipoto to be their GM By Bob Dutton
“As the 2015 season draws to a close, we have a great fan base, ballpark and organization, providing a great opportu- Jerry Dipoto nity for success. “I truly look forward to both the challenges and rewards to come as we chart a fresh course for the future of Mariners baseball.” Dipoto served 3½ years as general manager for the Los Angeles Angels before resigning July 1
The News Tribune
SEATTLE — It is now Jerry Dipoto’s job to end Major League Baseball’s longest postseason drought. The Mariners on Monday confirmed their choice of Dipoto, 47, to be their new general manager. They will formalize the announcement at 10 a.m. Tuesday in a news conference at Safeco Field. “I’m honored to be joining the Mariners family,” Dipoto said in a statement released by the club.
after a public spat with manager Mike Scioscia over the use of analytics and other matters. The Boston Red Sox hired Dipoto to an advisory role in mid-August. Boston’s new club president, Dave Dombrowski, recently said he hoped to elevate Dipoto to a full-time position if he wasn’t hired by another club. The Mariners targeted Dipoto from the beginning in their search to replace Jack Zduriencik, who was fired Aug. 28 after nearly seven years on the job. “Jerry impressed us at each step of the process,” said club
president Kevin Mather, who headed the search. “He has a very unique skill set, having been a successful player in the majors, then moving into front offices with steadily increasing responsibilities. “Jerry has scouted, spent time in player development and has a track record as a very successful general manager.” Multiple reports indicated Dipoto and New York Yankees assistant general manager Billy Eppler were the Mariners’ two

‘Winding road’ Taniela Tupou, a 2011 graduate of Archbishop Murphy High School, has overcome many obstacles, including being asked to leave the program, to become a starter on the defensive line at Washington. By Rich Myhre Herald Writer
SEATTLE — It was a moment Taniela Tupou will neither forget nor ever quite understand. Early in 2013, Tupou and some University of Washington teammates were summoned to an assistant coach’s office, there to receive some disheartening news. The staff, under then-head coach Steve Sarkisian, had determined those players were unlikely to see significant action in the future. Therefore, they should consider transferring to another college football program. Put another way, please leave. Though the message came from an assistant, Tupou had no doubt that it was “from the top.” That is, Sarkisian. — Taniela Tupou For someone who grew Washington fifth-year up loving football and was senior defensive lineman a highly recruited college prospect, the news was both shocking and hurtful. For a time, Tupou said, “I was in a rut. I didn’t want to (transfer). This was my home. ... It was a real humbling experience. You go from being at the top to going all the way down to the bottom.” But with the guidance and support of Kawai and Mosese Tupou, his mother and father, he determined not only to stay, but to embrace a demotion to the scout team. “The best thing I could do was just to have a positive attitude,” said Tupou, a defensive lineman who grew up in Marysville and was a 2011 graduate from Everett’s Archbishop Murphy High School. “My mindset from then on was that I was going to give it my all. They weren’t taking my scholarship away, so I was going to come out and work (hard), go to class, and make sure I dotted the I’s and crossed the T’s so they’d have no reason to kick me off the team.”
I look back on my journey here and it’s been crazy.”

Seahawks’ Lynch has MRI on injured hamstring Seahawks RB had been questionable for Sunday’s game because of calf injury By Nick Patterson Herald Writer
KEVIN CLARK / THE HERALD
Marshawn Lynch (24) was injured in Sunday’s game against the Bears.
INSIDE: Baseball, C2

RENTON — The Seattle Seahawks’ euphoria from winning their first game of the 2015 NFL season was tempered a tad Monday because of continuing concerns about the health of running back Marshawn Lynch. Lynch, Seattle’s workhorse back, suffered a hamstring injury while catching a fourthdown pass late in the first half of Sunday’s 26-0 victory over the

Chicago Bears at CenturyLink Field. Lynch did not return, and Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll revealed Monday that Lynch needed an MRI to determine the extent of the damage. “He’s getting (an MRI) today for sure on his hamstring, and he had one — I don’t even know what day that was now, they did his leg,” Carroll said during his Monday press conference at the Virginia Mason Athletic Center. Lynch had already been questionable for Sunday’s game

because of a calf injury that necessitated the first MRI. Though Lynch was activated, he needed extra time to warm up and did not emerge from the locker room until nearly eight minutes had elapsed in the first quarter. He ended up carrying the ball five times for 14 yards in the first half, then did not return in the second. “We’re taking care of him and rehabbing him,” Carroll said. See SEAHAWKS, Page C6

SEATTLE — The Limp to the Finish Tour returned Monday night to Safeco Field when the Mariners opened their final homestand with a 3-2 loss to the Houston Astros. That makes six losses in a row. Just five more games to go. And four of those six losses were by one run. Yep, the Mariners are counting it down. Houston broke a 2-2 tie on Chris Carter’s booming two-out homer in the seventh inning against reliever Danny Farquhar, who served up a walk-off homer to David Freese on Saturday at Anaheim in his previous outing. When Mark Trumbo opened the bottom of the inning with a walk, the Astros replaced starter Lance McCullers (6-7) with lefty Tony Sipp while James Jones went in to run for Trumbo. Sipp picked off Jones, who was in no-man’s land when Sipp threw to first. It continued a trend: The Mariners ran

themselves into three outs Sunday in a 3-2 loss to the Angels. Houston had a chance to extend its lead when it loaded the bases with two outs in the eighth inning, but Tony Zych struck out Jed Lowrie. The Astros also left runners at the corners in the ninth. It didn’t matter. Houston’s bullpen, so combustible in recent games, protected the one-run lead. Oliver Perez and Luke Gregerson combined for a scoreless ninth. Gregerson got his 30th save. Mariners lefty Roenis Elias recovered from a loud first inning, when he surrendered two homers, by allowing nothing further in pitching through the sixth inning and handing a 2-2 game to Farquhar (1-6). The victory enabled Houston to close to within 11⁄2 games of first-place Texas in the American League West while simultaneously maintaining a slender lead in the race for the AL’s final wild-card berth. The Astros opened the night with a one-half game lead over Los Angeles in the wild-card race. The Angels played Oakland in Anaheim.
Elias opened the game by surrendering some real estate. Jose Altuve sent a 351-foot drive to left for a long out before George Springer parked a 402foot drive over the right-center wall for a 1-0 lead. After Carlos Correa grounded out, Evan Gattis crushed a 2-1 change-up for a 413-foot homer to left that cleared the scoreboard above the bullpens. The Mariners got one run back in their first with considerably less muscle. Kyle Seager drew a one-out walk and came around on twoout ground singles by Robinson Cano and Trumbo. Cano’s single extended his hitting streak to 11 games. Two nice plays by first baseman Logan Morrison helped the Mariners stay within one run in the sixth. First, he turned low liner into a double play. Next, he dug out a low throw from shortstop Ketel Marte for the third out. Marte then opened the bottom of the inning with a no-doubt homer to right — the second homer of his career, and his second in three days. The game was tied.

Nats suspend Papelbon 4 games for fight with Harper Associated Press WASHINGTON — Bryce Harper is not quite sure what he could have done differently to avoid the dugout fight with teammate Jonathan Papelbon that resulted in the Washington Nationals suspending the closer for four games without pay. “If you’re in a bar or if you’re in the dugout or if you’re anywhere,” Harper said Monday, a day after his scrap with Papelbon, “if someone grabs your neck, your first reaction is to do what I did, I guess.” Harper, a leading NL MVP contender, also indicated he would be OK with Papelbon returning to the Nationals in 2016. The reliever has an $11 million guaranteed contract for next season. “If ‘Paps’ can help us win a World Series next year, that’s what I need. That’s what this whole clubhouse needs,” Harper said. “We can’t be fighting or anything like that.” Papelbon will miss the rest of this season. On Monday, he dropped his appeal of a

grabbed Harper by the throat. Papelbon then shoved the outfielder toward the bench with both hands, before teammates and members of Williams’ coaching staff pulled the pair apart. “It’s been a very difficult 24 hours for the organization,” Williams said. Williams was at the other end of the dugout and, he said Monday, was not aware of exactly what happened until later in the day, when he saw video that made the rounds on Twitter immediately after the scuffle. Williams said he hadn’t seen that video before his postgame news conference Sunday and hadn’t sought information from his coaches or other players during the game. He added that because he was unaware of the extent of the confrontation, he sent Papelbon back out to pitch in the ninth inning. “I thought it was odd,” Rizzo said of the reliever returning to the mound after the fight. “But there’s a lot of things going on in the dugout at the time. Matt missed it. He owned up to it.”

After that punishment ends, Papelbon serves the Nationals’ suspension announced Monday. Harper was held out of the home finale against the Reds for “his part in the altercation” with Papelbon, manager Matt Williams said. Harper, though, said after Sunday’s game that he was scheduled to be off Monday, anyway. Asked whether he was disappointed at the way the Washington portion of his season ended, Harper said: “I’ve got three more years at Nats Park.” General manager Mike Rizzo said Papelbon’s more severe discipline made clear who the club felt “was more at fault.” On Sunday, after Harper flied out in the eighth inning against Philadelphia, he headed to the dugout, where he and Papelbon exchanged words. The argument escalated, and Papelbon reached out with his left hand and

When he eventually did see video of Papelbon clutching at Harper’s neck, Williams said, “I was upset. I was appalled.” But he also made it sound as if a truly bothersome aspect was that everyone saw what happened. “Generally, this happens between players in the confines of a private clubhouse. It doesn’t happen in the open, generally,” Williams said. “So that being said, that’s how we would prefer to do it.” Both Williams and Rizzo said they had no problem with the way Harper jogged to first base on the fly ball that preceded the skirmish. “I’ve got no problem with his effort level (or) the way he hustles,” Rizzo said. “It is the job of the veteran players to point out what they think when you’re not playing the game right. ‘Pap’ must have felt that he wasn’t and he called him on it. It takes a guy with some guts to call a player out nowadays.” Harper, Rizzo added, “did not deserve it, in my personal opinion.”
helped the Angels win the American League West Division in 2014 and return to the postseason for the first time since 2009. Those acquisitions included third baseman David Freese, starting pitcher Hector Santiago and closer Huston Street. Dipoto is a former pitcher who spent eight years (1993-2000) in the big leagues as a reliever with Cleveland, the New York Mets and Colorado. He was 27-24 with 49 saves and a 4.05 ERA in 390 games. When a bulging disc in his neck forced him to retire prior to the 2001 season, Dipoto remained with the Rockies as special assistant to general manager Dan O’Dowd. From there, Dipoto served from 2003-04 as a Boston scout before returning to the Rockies as director of player personnel from 2005-06. He was Arizona’s vice president for player personnel from 2006-10. The Diamondbacks elevated Dipoto to interim general manager for the second half of the 2010 season after firing Josh Byrnes. When Arizona hired Kevin Towers as a full-time replacement, Dipoto became senior vice president for scouting and player development. The Angels hired Dipoto as their general manager on Oct. 29, 2011. Dipoto and his wife, Tamie, have two daughters (Taylor and Jordan) and one son (Jonah).

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville Pilchuck girls soccer team notched two victories all of last season. Eight games into the Tomahawks’ 2015 campaign, they’ve already surpassed that total. Olivia Lee scored twice and Bianca Acuario added another goal to lead Marysville Pilchuck to a 3-1 Wesco 3A North victory over crosstown rival Marysville Getchell Monday night at Marysville Getchell High School. The victory was the third of the season for the Tomahawks (2-1-1 league, 3-4-1 overall). “We’ve already (got more wins) than we did all last year,” said Marysville Pilchuck head coach Mike Bartley. “Right now, we’ve found our legs as far as scoring goes and our defense has improved a lot. I’m really looking forward to the rest of the season.” The Tomahawks had to battle back after finding themselves in an early deficit. Marysville Getchell junior midfielder Lindsey Weikel scored on a free kick from about 35 yards away to give the Chargers the game’s first lead just 10 minutes in. “That’s her fourth goal
from set pieces from 30-plus (yards). It’s unbelievable,” said Marysville Getchell head coach Wayne Nash. “It’s on frame and it’s almost in every time. She won it in overtime on a free kick in the last game against Meadowdale. It’s a great weapon to have. Any time they foul our team within 30 yards they’re giving us a goal opportunity.” The Chargers’ lead lasted seven minutes before Lee netted the first of her two goals after the ball deflected off a Marysville Getchell defender. The sophomore grabbed the rebound and shot from 25 yards out to tie the game 1-1. “We all got a little irritated (after the Chargers’ goal) but then we all got focused and buckled down,” Lee said. “We were really pumped for this game and knew what we had to do to get the win.” In the second half, Marysville Pilchuck’s offense continued to pressure Marysville Getchell. Lee almost had another goal in the 54th minute after trying to redirect a pass in front of the goal. Three minutes later the Tomahawks took the lead in the 57th minute after Acuario scored on a corner kick by Jessica Moskowitz. Moskowitz kicked another corner in the 60th minute
that found Lee for her second goal to provide a little insurance for Marysville Pilchuck. “The thing about this team is if you look at who’s scored goals, it’s spread out pretty good,” Bartley said. “At any given moment we have people that can score up front.” The Tomahawks coach said that with the game tied at halftime, he just tried to regroup and make sure his team continued to attack on set pieces. Lee couldn’t remember exactly what Bartley said but knew it was effective. “I don’t really remember what he said,” Lee said with a laugh, before adding: “It was inspiring.” Weikel almost added two more goals for Marysville Getchell (2-1-0, 3-4-0) late in the contest. In the 65th minute another long free kick flew just over the crossbar and landed on the net on top of the goal. Weikel took another shot from 40 yards out in the 69th minute that hit the crossbar and bounced back onto the field. “Her deadly range is 30-35 yards. She can put them on frame from 40-45,” Nash said. “At practice, her and I, have done a crossbar challenge from 40-45 out. And I try not to do it as much anymore because she beats me

quite often now.” Nash said his team struggled with little mistakes in the game against their crosstown rivals. With only three seniors on the Marysville Getchell roster, the Chargers boast a young squad. “We’re a much more intense team than what we showed today,” said Nash, who used to coach with Bartley at Marysville Pilchuck before taking over at Marysville Getchell. “I think our youth showed a little. We maybe bought in a little too much into the hype of this game instead of just playing soccer. I thought it was a great battle. “We always challenge them that, win or lose, it’s all about how well we played,” Nash continued. “We’re going to look at the game film and say, ‘How well did we play?’ We’ll learn a lot from this game.” Marysville Pilchuck, which has won two consecutive league games after a 2-2 tie with Stanwood last Tuesday, is hoping to continue to add to its win total as the season progresses. “This is a confidence booster,” Lee said. “In our preseason we struggled at times and in our last game against Mountlake Terrace we got our passing down. I think we’re just getting better and better.”
McEachern finished first in a meet against Glacier Peak, Everett and Monroe last week with a time of 16:58. The Knights finished second as a team.

Wilson makes Utah a legitimate Pac-12 contender Associated Press SALT LAKE CITY — Utah quarterback Travis Wilson has heard the criticism over the years and understands it comes with the position. Fans love him when he plays well, but that has been hit or miss throughout his career. The No. 10 Utes, however, displayed a shockingly different offense during a 62-20 rout of Oregon on Saturday that was sparked by the senior quarterback’s effort. “That was Travis’ best game as a Ute,” Utah coach Kyle Whittingham said. “Changes the whole dynamic of the offense when Travis is so accurate and so good with his throws. That loosens everything up for (Devontae) Booker and everyone else in the run game. It makes us a complete offense.” Wilson threw for 227 yards and a career-high four touchdowns while adding 100 rushing yards and another score. It was just the second time he’s rushed for 100 yards. The 62 points were the most Utah has scored in a Pac-12 game since joining the league in 2011. The Utah offense has leaned heavily on the run game and Booker since he emerged last season. The defense and special teams are traditionally a strong suit for the Utes. That scheme earned them a 3-0 start and a No. 18 ranking. Saturday’s Utes, the one with a prolific quarterback, trounced an Oregon team that played in the national championship game early this year. Utah is now a legit Pac-12 contender if Wilson can harness last week’s magic. Remember, this is the same quarterback that was benched twice last year and had to win the job during fall camp. “I know a lot of people doubt me and doubt my ability,” Wilson said. “That’s something that pushes me and motivates me to do better.” Senior receiver Kenneth Scott said teammates have gone out of their way to express confidence in Wilson. He said physical issues haven’t been a problem for the quarterback — Wilson just has to believe in himself. Scott also defended the receivers, saying there are plenty of playmakers outside of Booker on offense — they just needed the opportunity. The talent may have been there, but the production was not and the Utes ranked No. 108 in passing offense before the Oregon game. Utah hadn’t been very aggressive and Wilson’s longest completion in the first three games was 22 yards. “I don’t think people understand and listen,” Scott said. “We didn’t have to feel the need to throw the ball downfield because we were so in control of every game. There was hardly any situations where we were second-and-long, third-and-long. ... It’s just all about us taking advantage of what we’ve got.”

Work in progress Washington freshman quarterback Jake Browning and three freshmen starters on the offensive line are learning and gaining experience game-by-game.
By Christian Caple The News Tribune
SEATTLE — The Washington Huskies have a true freshman starting quarterback and three freshmen starting on the offensive line, so offensive struggles this season should not surprise. That’s just how it’s going to be sometimes. But it’s when those youthful mistake occur concurrently that the Huskies find themselves in particularly dire straits. Or find themselves gaining just 259 yards from scrimmage against a California defense not reputed for stellar performance. Better days are surely ahead for freshman quarterback Jake Browning, and for UW’s ultra-young, still-learning-theirassignments offensive line. In the interim, they’re going to be up against it — like in Saturday’s 30-24 loss to the Golden Bears, when a frustrating combination of poor pass protection and a skittish young quarterback yielded a mostly ineffective passing game. Browning completed 17-of28 passes for 152 yards with two interceptions, a lost fumble and five sacks that cost the Huskies a total of 40 yards. He spent much of the game scrambling, though Huskies head coach Chris
Petersen doesn’t place all of the blame for that on UW’s offensive line. Sometimes, Browning simply needs to get rid of the ball, or step up in the pocket instead of trying to scramble backward or sideways. But that’s a difficult concept for a freshman to immediately grasp when the pass protection is, too often, inadequate. It can make for a jumpy quarterback, even on plays when the protection is at least good enough to allow for a proper throw downfield. “I think it’s a hard dilemma for any quarterback,” Petersen said. “If he’s not feeling great about the protection and he’s been pressured a couple of times, (he thinks) ‘OK, I feel a little bit of pressure and then I’ve got to trust that it’s going to get picked up.’ That’s a very fine line, like ‘do I hang or do I get out of here?’ We’ve got to get better at that whole thing. We’ve got to protect him better, and he’s got to learn to trust it a little bit and get the ball out on time and those types of things.” Petersen used the example of Browning rolling out on a designed naked bootleg pass, only to find that the defensive end read the play perfectly and is in position to either hit Browning or force him to throw the ball

IAN TERRY / THE HERALD
Washington defensive lineman Taniela Tupou (90) pursues a play during last Saturday’s game against California.
More importantly, he also vowed “to get a degree from the University of Washington, no matter what. So even if I didn’t play, I’d still walk out of here a winner.” But then a funny thing happened. After the 2013 season — one in which Tupou played sparingly, and mostly in mop-up action — Sarkisian and his staff left for USC. Soon after, Chris Petersen was hired as Washington’s new head coach. And the change in regimes meant a clean slate for Tupou, who was given the chance to compete anew for a primary role. Two years later, he has seized that opportunity. Tupou, a 6-foot-2, 288-pound fifth-year senior, is a defensive starter for the Huskies and a guy “who kind of sets the tone for our group (of defensive linemen),” said UW defensive line coach Jeff Choate. “He’s just a great leader. He had to kind of wait his turn and that can sometimes be a hard thing to do. ... But it speaks a lot for the commitment he’s made to our program.”
away. Browning, Petersen said, needs to learn to embrace the second option, rather than trying to juke a Pac-12 lineman and keep the play alive. That, too often, will result in a drive-crippling loss of yardage. In other words: there’s nothing wrong with 2nd-and-10, if the likely alternative is 2nd-and-20. “He can juke that guy, which he’s done a little bit, and then make something happen,” Petersen said. “But those are the things that are split-second decisions that we’ve got to learn to fight another down and keep us in manageable (downs and distances).” These are lessons Petersen is sure Browning will learn sooner rather than later. He’s already shown the kind of promise that made him such a touted recruit out of Folsom High School, where he threw a national record 229 touchdown passes in three seasons. Browning set UW’s single-game freshman passing record (368 yards) just 10 days ago against Utah State. His talent is apparent. But there is no substitution for experience, and the Huskies have little of that. “The guy’s done some really good things, as we all know, and he’s going to continue to get better,” Petersen said.
Having arrived with Petersen in December of 2013, “I certainly can’t speak for (decisions made by) the previous staff,” Choate said. “All I can speak to is what he’s meant to us. And he’s everything of what this program is about. ... Whatever happened in the past, he wasn’t going to let it define him or affect him. He’s moved on and tried to do his best, and I’ve just really been impressed with him.” Tupou — his friends and coaches call him Tani — can only smile and shake his head as he reflects on a UW journey that has been, in his words, “a winding road the whole time.” But for all the disappointment, frustration and at times even tears, he insists he is not bitter about the experience. “I’m happy,” he said after a recent practice. “I’m excited and truly grateful for the opportunities I’ve been given. ... I love my teammates, I love my coaches, and I’m just blessed to be here.” Washington’s next game will offer Tupou a chance for payback of sorts. The Huskies travel to Los Angeles to face the Sarkisian-led Trojans. And although Tupou is not the kind of person to bear a grudge, he also admits that he would very much like to play well.
“... It’s so fast, and it’s just different than he’s used to. That’s going to take a minute to get up to speed. We’ve got to play that fast and have to make those decisions at all times. And he will.”
Extra points Petersen said the Huskies’ bye week — they don’t play again until Thursday, Oct. 8 at USC — won’t be tremendously different from a normal week of practice. Some teams try to give their younger players more practice repetitions during a bye, but the Huskies already play so many young players that “we’re working with them anyway, so let’s practice as usual,” Petersen said. “I mean, trust me, we’re going back right now and looking at everything we’ve done the first four games. It starts with us. How do we coach them better? What are we missing here that’s not clean enough? Are we missing something? So we’re in the process of doing that.” ... Petersen said he hasn’t studied USC yet, but that “I know who they’ve recruited ... and, yeah, they’ve got some guys. I know that.” ... Why, on a pair of short California kickoffs on Saturday, were the Huskies ruled to have called fair-catch when the kick returner clearly didn’t signal for one? The explanation Petersen received: a UW player “nowhere near” the returner put his hand in the air, signaling “sky kick” to his teammates. The officials apparently interpreted that as a fair-catch signal, which by rule applies to all 11 players on a kickoff. “It’s the first time it’s ever come up in however many years of doing this,” Petersen said. “But if that’s what it is, we’ll change our mechanics.”
“It’ll be really fun,” he said. “Even though things ended up the way they did with those coaches, I’m still very blessed and thankful that they even offered me a scholarship here. If it wasn’t for Coach Sark offering me, I wouldn’t be here today.” Tupou will graduate in the coming months with a degree in Comparative History of Ideas, a program that allows him to explore his Polynesian roots. He hopes to play in the NFL, but beyond that “my career plans are definitely still evolving.” He would love to be a college strength and conditioning coach, but has also considered police work. But in the meantime he is focused on finishing a senior season that is already more than he could have imagined a few years ago. “I look back on my journey here and it’s been crazy,” Tupou said. “But one thing I’ve learned about college football, and it’s something I’ve tried to preach to the young guys here, is that everything takes time. It’s a process. You just have to be patient and wait for your opportunity to come. “And then once your opportunity comes,” he said, “you have to seize that moment.”

Doctor’s Memory Breakthrough
New Discovery for People with Failing Memory World’s Leading Brain Expert and Winner of the Prestigious Kennedy Award, Unveils Exciting News For the Scattered, Unfocused and Forgetful By Steven Wuzubia Health Correspondent; Clearwater, Florida: Dr. Meir Shinitzky, Ph.D., is a former visiting professor at Duke University, recipient of the prestigious J.F. Kennedy Prize and author of more than 200 international scientific papers on human body cells. But now he’s come up with what the medical world considers his greatest accomplishment — A vital compound. so powerful, it’s reported to repair… even regrow damaged brain cells. In layman’s terms — Bring back your memory power. And leave you feeling more focused and clear-headed than you have in years! Dr. Shinitsky explains this phenomenon in simple terms; “Science has shown when your brain nutrient levels drop, you can start to experience memory problems and overall mental fatigue. Your ability to concentrate and stay focused becomes compromised. And gradually, a “mental fog” sets in. It can damage every aspect of your life”. Not only do brain cells die but they become dysfunctional as if they begin to fade away as we age. This affects our ability to have mental clarity and focus and impacts our ability to remember things that were easy for us to do in our 20’s and 30’s. Scientists think the biggest cause of brain deterioration in older people is the decreased functioning of membranes and molecules that surround the brain cells. These really are the transmitters that connect the tissues or the brain cells to one another that help us with our sharp memory, clear thinking and mental focus, even our powers to reason well. “When we are in our 20’s” according to Dr. Shinitzky “our body produces key substances like phosphatidylserine and phosphatidic acid”…unfortunately they are believed to be critical essential nutrients that just fade away with age, much like our memories often do leading to further mental deterioration. As we get older it becomes more frustrating as there is little comfort when you forget names… misplace your keys…or just feel “a little confused”. And even though your foggy memory gets laughed off as just another “senior moment,” it’s not very funny when it keeps happening to you.
The Missing Link is Found and Tested It’s hard to pronounce that’s for sure, but it certainly appears from the astounding clinical research that this one vital nutrient phosphatidylserine (PS) can really make a huge difference in our mental wellness. 17 different double blind studies with placebo controlled groups have been involved in the clinical research of PS with patients between the ages of 55-80 years of age. Periodically the researchers gave these patients memory and cognitive tests and the results were simply amazing: 1) PS patients outperformed placebo patients in All 5 Tests 100% Success Rate 2) After only 45 days there was a measurable improvement in mental function 3) After 90 days, there was an impressive and amazing improvement in mental function The group taking phosphatidylserine, not only enjoyed sharper memory, but listen to this… they were also more upbeat and remarkably more happy. In contrast, the moods of the individuals who took the placebo (starch pill), remained unaffected….no mental or mood improvement at all.
Vital Nutrient Reverses “Scatter Brain” This incredible PS nutrient feeds your brain the vital nutrient it needs to stay healthy... PS now has the attention of
Dr. Meir Shinitzky, Ph.D. a former visiting professor at Duke University and a recipient of the prestigious J.F. Kennedy Prize some of the world’s most prominent brain experts. It has been written up and published in leading science and medical journals and its findings have electrified the International scientific community.
Earth-Shaking Science Published, clinical reports show replenishing your body’s natural supply of Phosphatidylserine, not only helps sharpen your memory and concentration — but also helps “perk you up” and put you in a better mood. PS as it turns out also helps to reduce everyday stress and elevate your mood by lowering your body’s production of the hormone cortisol. When cortisol levels are too high for too long you experience fatigue, bad moods and weakness. This drug-free brain-boosting formula enters your bloodstream fast (in as little as thirty minutes). Officially Reviewed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration: Lipogen PS Plus is the ONLY Health Supplement that has a “Qualified Health Claim for both Cognitive Dysfunction and Dementia”.
My Memory Started to Scare Me. I would forget all kinds of things and something that I just said earlier in the day would have completely slipped my mind. I almost forgot my granddaughter’s birthday and that would have been horrible. I had forgotten lots of other little things along the way. I was worried about it. Over the last several months I’ve noticed my memory seemed to be getting pretty unreliable and so I thought I’d better do something about it now. So when I read about this amazing PS nutrient and how much it would help me with my memory I wanted to try it. It’s great! I have actual recall now, which is super. After about 6 weeks of taking it on a daily basis is when I began to notice that I wasn’t forgetting things anymore. Thanks to PS for giving me my memory back. It’s given me a lot more self-confidence and self-esteem. I would not trust my memory without it. - Ethel Macagnoney

SEAHAWKS | Next Opponent
LEAGUE | Notebook
Roethlisberger will miss ‘a number of weeks’
From Page C1
“His hamstring seemed to bother him a little bit in the middle of the game, and so we’re going to just take care of that. Fortunately we have an extra day (the Seahawks play on Monday night next week), that helps a little bit. But we really won’t know until we start practicing.” Carroll said he believes Lynch’s calf injury was resolving itself, but now the Seahawks are playing the waiting game on Lynch’s hamstring. “We’ve just got to wait and see,” Carroll said. “We’ve got a couple days here to figure it out, and usually he goes light on the Wednesday, which would be on Thursday this week, so he’s got some time to figure it out, and we probably won’t know until Friday. The MRI will be important, though, when we get the results back from that.” In Lynch’s absence, third-string running back Thomas Rawls filled in admirably. Showing off an ultra-aggressive running style, the undrafted rookie out of Central Michigan University ran for 104 yards on 16 carries. All but one of those carries came in the second half when Seattle’s offense picked up the pace following a pedestrian first half. Rawls was a somewhat surprising selection to deputize for Lynch. It was thought veteran Fred Jackson, signed just before the season started after he was cut by the Buffalo Bills, was brought in just for this type of situation. But Rawls ended up with 16 touches versus just four for Jackson, and Rawls justified the coaches’ faith. “He’s very aggressive, and he was looking for hits downfield,” Carroll said of Rawls. “He’s not looking to make a guy miss as much as he is to go run right at you. Through the line of scrimmage he’s got nice wiggle and all that, but he’s got an attitude that he wants to let you know he’s coming, and that’s what I got excited about. He made a lot of yardage in college, of course. But it was more the way he did it, and that was what he did yesterday. On one of those runs right in front of our bench he popped both DBs and hit them really hard, and he made a statement that he’s coming after you. I just like the way he does it.” Rawls helped the Seahawks stroll to victory against a Bears team that was overmatched. Chicago not only was a winless team, going through a rebuild under first-year head coach John Fox, the Bears were also left without a passing game because of the absence of starting quarterback Jay Cutler and No. 1 receiver Alshon Jeffrey because of hamstring injuries. Nevertheless, Carroll wasn’t discounting the victory, despite the caliber of the opposition. Especially considering the Seahawks were 0-2 themselves and desperately in need of a win. “Well, the things that we needed to get done last weekend were taken care of in terms of getting the feeling of winning,” Carroll said. “We had a nice finish to the game,” Carroll added. “We started a little bit slow in some regards, but had a really big game once we figured it out and took control of it. It was a nice game for us.”
Extra points Seattle’s other injury from Sunday saw defensive tackle Brandon Mebane go down in the first quarter with a groin strain during a pileup. Carroll said Mebane was “getting around OK today, with what the trainers said, but we’ll have to wait and see.” ... Strong safety Dion Bailey was claimed off waivers by the New Your Jets. Bailey was waived by the Seahawks on Saturday to make room for Kam Chancellor on the 53-man roster. Bailey, an undrafted free agent who spent last season on Seattle’s practice squad, started Seattle’s opener at St. Louis in Chancellor’s place, but was replaced by DeShawn Shead in Week 2 at Green Bay. Had Bailey made it through waivers the Seahawks would have had the option of signing him to their practice squad. ... It seems the Seahawks were too much to handle for all the Bears — including the punter. Chicago punter Pat O’Donnell, who had a busy day as he was called into duty following all 10 of the Bears’ drives, reportedly suffered a sprained knee and is now considered day-to-day. Chicago became the first team since 1991 to punt on its first 10 possessions.

Broncos cornerback Aqib Talib (21) breaks up a pass intended for Lions wide receiver Calvin Johnson (81) in last Sunday’s game.
Winless Lions
Caldwell sticking with Lombardi to call plays By Larry Lage Associated Press
ALLEN PARK, Mich. — Detroit Lions head coach Jim Caldwell had to look back a ways to point out how well his winless team was doing on offense. Back to when games didn’t count. “I think during the preseason we were humming along pretty well,” Caldwell said Monday. “Obviously, the first half of the San Diego game we were humming along pretty well. We’ve got to get back to that which I think we can do.” Since leading the Chargers 21-3 midway through the second quarter in Week 1, the Lions have scored five touchdowns in 10 quarters and two of those scores were late in games against teams with double-digit leads. Will Caldwell take play-calling duties away from offensive coordinator Joe Lombardi? “Short answer. No,” Caldwell said. It doesn’t seem likely that Detroit (0-3) will be able to bounce back quickly on offense, either. The Lions travel to play the defending NFC champion Seattle Seahawks next Monday night, then return to host the high-scoring, NFC West-leading
Arizona Cardinals after a short week of preparation. Detroit has run for an NFLlow 135 yards and isn’t doing much better through the air. While Matthew Stafford does rank in the middle of the pack in yards passing (814) and TD passes (five), he has thrown five interceptions to rank among league leaders and his passer rating is among the worst. Against the Broncos, he threw two interceptions for the second time this year. He also lost a fumble in the fourth quarter when he had at least one chance to throw the ball away before getting hit in Sunday night’s 24-12 loss to Denver. “Penalties hurt us. I had turnovers that hurt us,” Stafford said. “You correct some of those things, you know, we play a whole lot better.” The Lions are doing a better job of getting the ball to receiver Calvin Johnson, but it isn’t changing their results. Johnson has caught 18 passes for 160 yards in the past two games after he had just two receptions for 39 yards in the opener. He hasn’t, though, gained more than 28 yards on a reception this season. Stafford was trying to throw a deep ball to Johnson late in the game against the Broncos when
safety David Bruton Jr. dropped into a zone and got his right hand onto the pass, tipping it to himself for an interception “I wish I could have thrown it six inches higher,” Stafford said. “Maybe we have a catch for a first down.” And maybe if the bangedup offensive line could open a hole for the running backs, there could be some balance on offense. Ameer Abdullah has shown flashes of promise, running for 82 yards and a score on 21 attempts, but Caldwell does not quite seem ready to play the rookie more in place of veteran Joique Bell, who doesn’t appear to be fully recovered from Achilles tendon and knee injuries. Bell is barely averaging more than 1 yard per attempt, running for just 22 yards on 20 carries with a long of 7. Caldwell refused to agree with a reporter who suggested Bell looks slow. “Like any other position it’s not always on him,” he said. “He can’t create his own opportunities sometimes.” Notes Caldwell did not provide an update on the health of two key players, DE Ezekiel Ansah (groin) and OG Larry Warford (ankle) , who left Sunday’s game with injuries.
Rodgers throws 5 TD passes, Packers beat Chiefs 38-28 Associated Press GREEN BAY, Wis. — Aaron Rodgers dissected another defense on a national stage, building a big enough cushion for the Green Bay Packers to overcome a late rush by Jamaal Charles and the Kansas City Chiefs. Rodgers threw for 333 yards and five touchdowns, including three to Randall Cobb, and Green Bay beat Kansas City 38-28 on Monday night. Rodgers led the Packers (3-0) on two successful first-quarter drives that ended with scoring passes to Cobb and rookie Ty Montgomery. He found James Jones for a 27-yard touchdown reception late in the second quarter for a 17-point lead at the break. Charles rushed for three touchdowns for Kansas City (1-2), which followed its
stunning, last-minute loss at home to Denver with a respectable fourth-quarter effort at raucous Lambeau Field. Charles’ 7-yard TD with 1:25 left got the Chiefs within 10. But the end result was the same for Kansas City, which lost its second straight. Rodgers was 24 of 35 in another masterful performance for the MVP quarterback. The Packers controlled the line of scrimmage when it counted and got to Alex Smith for seven sacks. Smith finished 24 of 40 for 290 yards and a touchdown. Under pressure near his own end zone, Smith also threw an interception to Sam Shields at the Chiefs 19 with about 7 minutes left in the third quarter. Shields returned it 15 yards, and on the next play, Rodgers found Cobb for a 4-yard
touchdown and a 31-7 lead. Rodgers and Cobb hooked up for another 4-yard scoring pass in the fourth. With the score, Rodgers set the franchise record with his fourth career game of at least five touchdown passes. Kansas City stopped its long streak of no touchdown receptions by a receiver when Jeremy Maclin hauled in a 5-yard TD pass with 56 seconds left in the third quarter to get the Chiefs within 31-14. It was the first touchdown pass caught by a receiver since Donnie Avery had a 79-yard catch-and-run against the Indianapolis Colts in a wild card game on Jan. 4, 2014. A week after fumbling twice, Charles had a little fun with his own Lambeau Leap into the awaiting arms of Chiefs fans following his 4-yard TD run in the fourth quarter.
Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin confirmed quarterback Ben Roethlisberger’s knee injury at his weekly news conference Monday, but didn’t offer a whole lot of clarity beyond that. Tomlin said Roethlisberger will miss “a number of weeks” after spraining his medial collateral ligament (MCL) in Sunday’s 12-6 win against the Rams. Tomlin did not, though, offer any specifics beyond saying that Roethlisberger will not play Thursday against the Ravens. “I don’t have great detail about what that length of time might look like or might be, to be quite honest with you,” Tomlin said. “I know he’s out this week.” Michael Vick took over after Roethlisberger went down in the third quarter, and will be the Steelers’ starter for as long as Roethlisberger is out. Tomlin said the team will “rally around” Vick. Tomlin said that, unlike most viewers, he didn’t automatically assume the worst when Roethlisberger went down. “I didn’t assume that it was a season-ending injury,” he said. “I never assume anything when someone gets hurt. I wait until I get medical information, and when I got it, that’s what they gave us. I don’t spend a lot of time or waste a lot of time and energy speculating.” He also didn’t need to take much time encouraging Roethlisberger after he got hurt. “Ben’s a ‘been there, done that’ guy,” Tomlin said. “No words needed.” While Tomlin said he was comfortable with Vick’s knowledge of the team’s playbook, that doesn’t mean the look of the offense won’t change. “He is (comfortable in the offense), but that doesn’t mean that we’re going to ask him to execute our offense in the same manner as we’d ask Ben to,” Tomlin said. “Ben and coach (Todd) Haley have been together for three years now, Ben has been in Pittsburgh for over 10 years. There’s a certain comfort in that continuity.”
Newton-Hochuli spat CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The NFL vice president of officiating says that referee Ed Hochuli insists he never told Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton that he “wasn’t old enough” to get a personal foul call during Sunday’s game against the New Orleans Saints. “Ed was adamant that he did not say that,” Dean Blandino told the NFL Network on Monday. “He told me that he said (to Newton) that ‘the difference is you were running.’ I think when you look at the tape it does look like Ed did say (the difference is you were running). I think that’s where we are right now and we’re just going to kind of move on from there.” Newton called out the veteran referee after Carolina’s 27-22 win after he felt a personal foul should have been called on Saints defensive tackle Tyeler Davison for hitting him out of bounds after he released a pass. TV replays show Newton having a brief conversation with Hochuli after the play, and the quarterback reacted at one point with surprise, stopping in his tracks before breaking into a wide, disbelieving smile. “The response that I got was, ‘Cam, you’re not old enough to get that call,”’ Newton said at his postgame press conference Sunday. “I was looking at him like, ‘I didn’t think that you had to have seniority to get a personal foul or anything like that.’ ... Heaven forbid he gets any rookies. They are going to have a long day man.”
Bears trade Allen, Bostic CHICAGO — The Chicago Bears agreed to trade linebacker Jonathan Bostic to the New England Patriots for a sixth-round pick on Monday. The deal follows the afternoon trade of outside linebacker Jared Allen to the Carolina Panthers for a sixth-rounder.
No more fieworks? ST. LOUIS — St. Louis Rams coach Jeff Fisher says it’s not his call whether the team continues to use pyrotechnic displays during player introductions. But Fisher added jokingly that from now on he’s going to enter the field at the Edward Jones Dome from the opposite tunnel. The start of Sunday’s game against the Steelers was delayed about 30 minutes by a small fire from sparks emitted during the display and a protracted cleanup effort. No plays came close to the affected area around the 3 and 4-yard line near the north end zone.

FIFA’s Blatter has no plans to step down Associated Press ZURICH — Sepp Blatter told his staff he has done “nothing illegal or improper” and has no immediate plans to step down, the FIFA president’s legal team said Monday. Blatter was back at FIFA headquarters three days after being interrogated by Swiss investigators at the scandal-battered governing body’s headquarters. Blatter is expected to hand over power in February when an emergency election is held, triggered by the president’s
resignation statement four days after being re-elected for a fifth, four-year term in May. But the 79-year-old Blatter does not appear to be planning any sudden exit despite being the subject of a criminal investigation over his management of world soccer. “President Blatter spoke to FIFA staff today and informed the staff that he was cooperating with the authorities, reiterated that he had done nothing illegal or improper and stated that he would remain as president of FIFA,” Blatter’s attorney, Richard
Cullen, said in a statement. Blatter was questioned by Swiss investigators on Friday about why FIFA paid 2 million Swiss francs (about $2 million) to UEFA President Michel Platini in 2011 for work supposedly carried out at least nine years earlier. Blatter denied wrongdoing and Platini, who is also a FIFA vice president, was only questioned as a witness. “Because of the continuing investigation President Blatter will answer no further questions at this time,” Cullen’s statement concluded.
