Fire department gets a look New A draft report stirred controversy by suggesting Everett close two of its six working stations and reduce staffing. By Rikki King Herald Writer

EVERETT — The City Council is rethinking the size and shape of the Everett Fire Department. Everett paid a consulting firm $66,400 to study the issue, and

a draft report went before the council in August. The 216-page report did not make any final recommendations. Controversy, though, has stirred from suggestions in the document to close two of Everett’s six working fire stations,

reduce the number of firefighters on staff, and rework how firefighter shifts are scheduled. The council isn’t expected to make any decisions for several months. The city had asked the Missouri-based consulting firm Fitch and Associates to study two issues, said Guillermo Fuentes, a partner at the firm. The first was to create a breakdown

of Everett’s emergency risks — day-to-day medical calls as well as major disasters — and what’s needed to keep people safe. The second issue was whether there might be cheaper, more sustainable ways to deliver the same services. The consultants relied on data, fire station visits See FIRE, back page, this section

d’Elaine Johnson, a prolific artist in Edmonds, never knew life without her art. Scuba diving in the 1950s inspired her creations.

Scuba diving opened a world of new ideas for artist d’Elaine Johnson By Rikki King Herald Writer

EDMONDS — More than 60 years ago, d’Elaine Johnson decided to create the life she wanted. She could have taken over her parents’ variety store. She could have listened to the people who said women only should teach elementary school, or the official who denied her a job, saying

track of her work in galleries around the world. She likes to tell people she was born in the parking lot of the Puyallup fairgrounds. The land was once her grandfather’s farm. Her parents would bring their baby girl to their store, keeping her in makeshift playpens made from the merchandise boxes. d’Elaine went to college on art scholarships and became a teacher, self-supported by age 22.

“As much as I hated that store, it gave me a second education on how to deal with people and how to run a business,” she said.

EVERETT — The city of Everett launched a new website in March, and by many accounts it’s doing the job it should: being easier to navigate and manage. But one element that was promised — a new city logo — never showed up, and now it’s certain that it won’t.

When the website launched, the logo was absent. On Oct. 14, city communications director Meghan Pembroke, who oversaw the website redesign, told the City Council that the logo would not, in fact, be used any time in the near future, and the city would continue to use its old one. “Unfortunately, it has met an untimely end at this point,” Pembroke said of the new logo. Of the process of selecting a logo, she added, “It’s point was to engage the community. On that point, it was overwhelmingly successful.”

personal injury cases. At the University of Washington, she’d needed another credit and enrolled in a dance class. John had taken the class to meet a girl. It worked. Their first conversation was about frogs. John was homesick for frog legs, a favorite dinner where he was from in Arkansas. On their wedding night in 1956, they moved into their first little house in the Five Corners area of Edmonds. They came to know a couple with 6.5 acres on a waterfront bluff, then north of city limits. Back then that area, once a U.S. Coast Guard lookout, was considered the countryside. The man died and the woman missed city life, so the Johnsons bought the place in 1972. d’Elaine used to love listening to the coyotes at night, before development chased off the wildlife. Later, when the upkeep got to be too much, the Johnsons sold off about half the land. John died in 2009. Today, their property is in trust for scholarships through the arts program at Edmonds Community College. As a teacher, d’Elaine worked in public and private schools, and museums, retiring in 1978 from Roosevelt High School in Seattle. When asked if she has children, she always says, “Yes, 10,000,” meaning those she taught. d’Elaine jokes that her marriage was spent on the road, in camping tents and military surplus hammocks. She and John liked

to get outside and travel, towing behind them a little trailer studio for d’Elaine. She always brought her violin along to play as well. Military surplus equipment was in fashion after World War II, including scuba diving gear, she said. John joined a diving club, and d’Elaine went with him. In diving, she found “the beauty of being in flotation, seeing the motion of the seaweed and the plants,” she said. “This world had a peace that we don’t seem to get on land.” The famed explorer Jacques Cousteau, then just starting out, came to town in the 1950s and dove with the local diving club, including d’Elaine. At the time, Cousteau was criticized for not conforming to the culture of

higher education, d’Elaine said. He didn’t have a fancy title. He did what he wanted. He told her he liked how the water inspired her art, she said. d’Elaine kept diving until the 1980s, when the equipment was getting complicated, the lines longer and the water murkier, she said. Her studio at home is a place of peace with natural light, a view and a fireplace. d’Elaine likes to hear the rain on the roof. When storms come, she often loses power, bringing her sleeping bag, her tea and her cat, Fiddle, into the studio to work and sleep. Her work table is lined with antique goblets full of color pencils. Her favorite piece of equipment is “the chopper,” where she presses a lever to cut a piece of frame at a perfect and smooth 45-degree angle. Art was her first language, she said. As a child with eye problems, she struggled to express herself

in a visual way, so she created her own style. For artists who make history, “their life and who they are merge into their own handwriting,” she said. “It’s the thread that has been all the way through my life. It’s something that comes from your inner life and what you want to talk about.” She uses photo slides and negatives to plan the layouts for galleries. Each slide bears her neat penmanship, with frame measurements down to the quarter-inch. She expects that someday, her slides and papers will go to UW for archiving. “I try to surround myself with all of the things that inspire me,” she said, pointing to the skeleton of a lingcod mounted above a doorway. In her own words, her work combines classic symbols, ancient cultures and maritime myths. She reads two newspapers a day, and the years of watching wars, inequities and “people wanting to take down others” is in her art, too, she said. The water isn’t like that, though. The water is universal, touching every culture, every belief system, every corner of the world, she said. She goes swimming three times a week. She doesn’t paint on weekends, her “time out for the mind to think and breathe and solve problems.” She misses .... traveling with John. The frog figurines in her studio remind her of him, though she finds contentment in this other life, a life that gets to be about her. It’s important to keep learning and growing, she said, and to pay attention to a world that doesn’t stop changing. She likes to think her best work is yet to come. Art, like science, she said, is about going beyond what already exists. Rikki King: 425-339-3449; rking@heraldnet.com.

the buzz Logorrhea Let go of my logo: The city of Everett has decided not to use a new logo it commissioned through a design contest with a $5,000 prize after it was learned the winning design too closely resembled the logo of a financial investment firm. The city’s legal team said it could have used the logo without worrying about trademark infringement, because there was no risk of confusing the city with a financial firm (Page A1). After spending $5,000 for a logo it can’t use, nope, no one’s confusing the city with financial geniuses. This is going to be yuuuuge: An Associated Press poll says 7 of 10 Republican Party voters believe Donald

Trump is the party’s best chance at winning the White House in the general election (Page A7). Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, D-Hot Mail, said the only better news would be another invitation to testify before the House Select Committee on Benghazi. Don’t know much about history: On this day in 1965, The Beatles received medals as members of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire from Queen Elizabeth II (Today in History, Page B4). The queen, betraying her preference, also bestowed on Paul McCartney the medal making him a member of the Most Excellent Order of The Cute One.

Donations roll in for DelBene’s campaign By Jerry Cornfield Herald Writer

Democratic Congresswoman Suzan DelBene is off to a solid start in raising money for her 2016 re-election campaign. She raised nearly $240,000 in the three-month period ending Sept. 30 and had $508,203 on hand, according to reports filed with the Federal Election Commission.

Meanwhile, her Republican opponent, state Rep. Elizabeth Scott, took in $27,468 in the same period and reported $23,529 on hand to begin October, according to her federal campaign filing. DelBene is seeking a third term representing the 1st Congressional District that covers communities from the Canadian border south to King County.

It takes in part of Snohomish County, including the cities of Snohomish, Lake Stevens, Sultan and Monroe. Her federal reports show that she’s raised nearly $700,000 this year of which $349,086 came from individuals and $327,000 from political action committees. She’s also received some funds from Democratic Party organizations.

Scott has served in the state House since 2013. She launched her campaign for Congress in April and collected nearly $60,000 in contributions so far, all from individual donors. She declined to be interviewed for this story. In a statement issued Oct. 8, Scott said she closed the third quarter fundraising period with “strong momentum.” “I am going to keep working

hard, keep meeting voters to listen to their concerns and suggestions, and keep talking about my vision and common-sense solutions for the problems that plague this country,” she said in the statement. Scott had hoped to raise at least $100,000 by the end of September. Had she eclipsed that See DELBENE, Page A4

SNOHOMISH — There’s an effort under way to make schools more inclusive for transgender students. The Snohomish School Board is pondering a new anti-discrimination policy that deals with issues, such as access to restrooms and locker rooms, sports participation, dress codes and official records. A person who is transgender has an inner sense of gender identity that is not the same as the sex they were assigned at birth. Assistant Superintendent Scott Peacock said rules are needed to deal with an increasing number of transgender students at elementary and secondary schools. The board is expected to decide on the proposed policy at its meeting at 6 p.m. Wednesday at the Snohomish School District administration office, 1601 Ave. D. Snohomish is not alone in facing the issue of how to accommodate transgender students in a nondiscriminatory way. The Lake Stevens and Stanwood-Camano school districts are drawing up policies to bring to their school boards in November. “We’re all working on it, trying to figure it out,” said Maurene Stanton, human resources director for Stanwood-Camano. The Everett and Granite Falls school districts are also looking into implementing policies for transgender students. Everett spokeswoman Mary Waggoner said she expects to have one ready for the board to consider in 2016. A number of other districts across Snohomish County,

Ready to meet challenges By Kari Bray Herald Writer

LAKEWOOD — Morgan Shimkus, 17, is a straight-A senior at Lakewood High School on track to graduate with her associates degree. Along with excelling in academics, Morgan holds records in girls’ sports for pole vaulting and in weight training for dead lift, parallel squat, power clean and bench press. Question: What types of

classes are you taking? Answer: Well, this year I’m taking Spanish 3, honors government and chemistry and then I’m taking, for this quarter, English 102 at the college but I’m taking it online. That’s pretty fun. I bring my laptop to school and do my class here usually. They’re pretty challenging, but I really like a challenge. Q: What’s your favorite subject? A: Math. I love math. I couldn’t take it this year because

I took calculus last year and we only offer Calc 2 as independent study. I just feel like I think in numbers sometimes. I have a very mathematical mind, and so solving the problems, getting to the solution, makes me really happy. Q: Are you involved in extracurriculars? A: Yes. I have a lot. I have volleyball, track and field, Honor Society, Free the Children, Captain’s Academy, Cougar Crew and Knowledge Bowl.

tanwood is nearly twice the size of Granite Falls and has three times the population of Gold Bar. But while those smaller cities have direct bus routes to downtown Everett, Stanwood does not. “The entire Stanwood area does not have (direct) bus service to Everett, its county seat,” said Christina Kilbourn, of Stanwood. Island Transit is debating whether to charge fares to bring back state funding for a route that had connected the two cities. But Kilbourn said the hem-and-haw over the special state grant — that

The issue has been out there since 2014, when state funding was lost for the Island Transit Everett Connector route that included a stop in Stanwood on its way from Camano Island to Everett. It’s at the forefront again for would-be riders like Kilbourn now that Community Transit is asking voters on the Nov. 3 ballot to increase the sales tax to help expand service.

Getting from Stanwood to Everett Station on existing routes would take at least 1 hour 40 minutes. That’s three times what it takes to drive. Even transit officials agree that’s not feasible.

spokesman Martin Munguia said. It’s even mentioned in Proposition 1 campaign materials. The route is not off the table. But Munguia stressed it’s just one unfunded need out there. “We have a lot of requests. All over the county, people say, ‘We want you to do this, we want you to do that,’ ” Munguia said. Even with $25 million extra a year, “the truth is we can’t do everything.” If the tax package is approved, Community Transit would start a public input process in 2016.

More than 1 million seniors have taken advantage of this “retirement secret.” Americans are living longer. Home values are up. And for many senior citizens, their home is their single biggest asset, often accounting for more than 50% of their net worth. With the cost of basic necessities such as food on the rise, it’s no wonder why more and more seniors are using HECM reverse mortgages to turn their home equity into extra cash for retirement. However, there are still millions of homeowners who could benefit from this FHA-insured loan but may simply not be aware of this “retirement secret,” notes Former U.S. Senator Fred Thompson. “You know, some people have told me that reverse mortgages sound too good to be true. You get cash out of your home, no monthly payments, and you still own your home,” says Senator Thompson. NO MONTHLY MORTGAGE PAYMENTS?* EXTRA CASH? It’s true, no monthly mortgage payments are required with a reverse mortgage; the homeowners only have to pay for maintenance, property taxes, homeowner’s insurance and, if required, their HOA fees. In fact, reverse In 1988, President mortgages took Reagan signed the hold when presiFHA Reverse Mortdent Ronald Reagage bill into law. gan signed the FHA mortgage bill into law over 25 years ago to help senior citizens remain in their homes. “They’re simply an effective way for folks 62 and old-

er to get the cash they need to enjoy their retirement,” notes Thompson. Although today’s HECM reverse mortgages have been greatly improved to provide greater protection for homeowners, there are still a lot of misconceptions. For example, many people mistakenly believe the home must be paid off in full in order to qualify for a reverse mortgage, which is not the case. One key benefit of a reverse mortgage is that it automatically pays off your existing mortgage, which frees up cash flow, a huge blessing for those on a fixed income.

*If you qualify and your loan is approved, a HECM Reverse Mortgage must pay off your existing mortgage(s). With a HECM Reverse Mortgage, no monthly mortgage payment is required. Borrowers are responsible for paying property taxes and homeowner’s insurance (which may be substantial). We do not establish an escrow account for disbursements of these payments. Borrowers must also occupy home as primary residence and pay for ongoing maintenance; otherwise the loan becomes due and payable. The loan must be paid off when the last borrower, or eligible non-borrowing surviving spouse, dies, sells the home, permanently moves out, or does not comply with the loan terms. Call 1-800-792-0509 to learn more. **Client image was changed to stock photography. A HECM Reverse Mortgage increases the principal mortgage loan amount and decreases home equity (it is a negative amortization loan). American Advisors Group (AAG) works with other lenders and nancial institutions that offer reverse mortgages. To process your request for a reverse mortgage, AAG may forward your contact information to such lenders for your consideration of reverse mortgage programs that they offer.

A: Probably joining track and field freshman year because that’s when I feel like I started to blossom from someone young into an adult. I met a lot of new people and they brought me into their lives and made me feel welcome. I also met the coaches and they became mentors for me and they help me with anything.

Highway 9 backups Street Smarts has received a lot of questions over the past several months from drivers frustrated with the commute on Highway 9. Many of them wondered if traffic signals are not as carefully timed as they could be. In general, traffic on Highway 9 is a bad-andgetting-worse headache. “Congestion is up significantly on the I-5 corridor. Drivers look for other routes, and (Highway) 9 is one of the main alternatives,” said Steve Schuller, public works director for the city of Snohomish. Tom Pearce, a spokesman at the Washington State Department of Transportation, summarizes the state’s approach to Highway 9: “The Washington State Department of Transportation has been actively monitoring the signals along State Route 9 for the past few months and making adjustments where changes can improve traffic flow. However, northbound SR 9 goes from two to one

lane between 180th Street Southeast and 176th Street Southeast. This bottleneck creates a significant amount of congesting during peak periods. With this configuration, only so much can be done with traffic signals to improve traffic. “Currently WSDOT has funding for design and property acquisition to widen northbound SR 9 to two lanes between 180th and East Lowell-Larimer Road/Broadway Avenue. However, no construction funding is scheduled at this time. Until the highway is widened, we’ll continue to monitor the traffic signals and do the best we can to keep traffic moving.”

Letting in cars is courteous Melissa George, of Lake Stevens, writes: “Are drivers heading west toward the trestle on Highway 204 required to let in drivers turning right off of Sunnyside Boulevard in Lake Stevens? In the morning, Highway 204 backs up for miles as every driver on 204 stops to let in a driver from Sunnyside Boulevard.” Pearce of WSDOT responds: “Vehicles turning right from Sunnyside Boulevard onto SR 204 are required to stop and wait for a safe opening to enter traffic, according to RCW 46.61.190. Drivers on SR 204 are not required to allow vehicles to turn right onto the highway, but if traffic is backed up and they choose to be courteous, allowing vehicles to turn onto SR 204, they can legally do that. It’s the same at any place a drivers who are on a highway have the right-of-way at an intersection where crosstraffic must stop. WSDOT currently does not have funding for any changes at this intersection.” Email me at streetsmarts@heraldnet. com. Include your first and last name and city of residence.

State voters will weigh in on anti-tax measure Associated Press OLYMPIA — There has been no shortage of efforts to limit Washington state lawmakers’ ability to raise taxes over the years, both legislatively and on the ballot. The latest ballot measure before voters gives lawmakers a choice: send a constitutional amendment to voters that would reinstate a twothirds legislative majority requirement to raise taxes or else see a cut in the state sales tax. Initiative 1366 would decrease the 6.5-percent state sales tax to 5.5 percent unless the Legislature approves a constitutional amendment before April 15 that voters would weigh in on later that year. Currently, taxes can be raised through a simple-majority vote of the Legislature. Opponents of the measure call it legislative blackmail, and say it will likely not pass constitutional muster if approved by voters. But initiative sponsor Tim Eyman, who has a long history of antitax efforts, insists he’s merely seeking to end the “tug of war on this policy.” Previous voterapproved initiatives sponsored by Eyman required a supermajority vote on taxes, but the state Supreme Court struck that requirement down in 2013, saying it was unconstitutional.

including Arlington, Darrington, Edmonds, Mukilteo, Marysville and Monroe, have put policies in place for transgender students. The Washington State School Directors’ Association, in collaboration with the state superintendent’s office, in 2013 drafted a model for districts to follow. Under Snohomish’s proposed policy, students would be allowed to use the

know where we’d get the money.” The state Office of Financial Management has estimated the initiative would reduce revenue to the state budget by $8 billion through the middle of 2021, if its tax-cut element becomes law. While the state Supreme Court ultimately refused to block the measure from the ballot, the justices said that they would retain the appeal for a later decision on the merits. Meanwhile, Eyman is facing campaign finance allegations after state investigators last month accused him of violating state election law by misspending campaign funds from a previous measure three years ago, and diverting $170,000 for his personal use. The case has been referred to the state Attorney General, who has not yet said what, if any action, the office will take. It’s not the first time Eyman has faced accusations of secretly diverting funds. A 2002 case resulted in Eyman paying more than $50,000 in penalties in fees and being prohibited from serving as a campaign treasurer. Eyman has refused to discuss the most recent allegations, saying that he is focused on the initiative and that voters should “evaluate the initiatives on their merits.”

to use a certain restroom or locker room because they are transgender. The proposed policy also dictates that students be allowed to participate in the physical education classes and sports that are consistent with their gender identities. They’ll also be permitted to dress in a way that corresponds with their preferred sex. The district is required to maintain records with a student’s legal name and gender. Under the proposed policy, it will alter those records if a student provides documentation that shows their legal name or gender has been changed. When the district is not legally required to report the name and sex assigned at birth, it is to use those that the student identifies

with. Staff is directed to address students with the pronouns they prefer. The proposed policy cautions educators and administrators to keep confidential any information that could reveal that a student is transgender, unless such a disclosure is legally required or they have permission to share. It makes clear that discrimination on the basis of gender expression is prohibited. The policy is aimed at providing students with the equal access they are entitled to under the law and ensuring no one is discriminated against, Peacock said. “The important thing we’re thinking about is that our schools are inviting and welcoming to all students,” he said.

“The voters keep voting for it, and the Legislature and the courts say we don’t like these things,” Eyman said. The initiative “has the potential to protect every taxpayer forever from tax increases from Olympia.” Any such amendment would face a daunting road to passage, given that many Democrats oppose a two-thirds rule and in order for a constitutional amendment to make it to the ballot, two thirds of the Legislature must approve it. Republicans control the Senate, but with a 26-23 majority don’t have the votes required to pass such a measure. Democrats currently control the House with a 51-47 majority. That means the more likely outcome if the initiative passes is that the state will see a dip in revenues from a cut in the state sales tax, Democratic Sen. David Frockt said. Frockt, who had been a plaintiff in a lawsuit seeking to keep the measure off the ballot, said that with lawmakers facing court-ordered requirements on things like education funding, the risk of losing state revenue would be devastating. “At a time when we need to increase our funding of K-12, that would be the wrong thing to,” he said, warning that deep budget cuts would be necessary. “I don’t

Locker room access is to be assessed on an individual basis with the goal of being as inclusive as possible, while ensuring student safety and comfort, Peacock said. Any student — transgender or not — who wants privacy is to be provided use of an alternative restroom or changing area, such as one used by staff. However, no student should be required

Movement at refugee summit EU leaders agree to slow migrant arrivals, provide winter shelter By Raf Casert and Amer Cohadzic Associated Press

BRUSSELS — European and Balkan leaders agreed on measures early Monday to slow the movement of tens of thousands whose flight from war and poverty has overwhelmed border guards and reception centers and heightened tension among nations along the route to the European Union’s heartland. In a statement to paper over deep divisions about how to handle the crisis, the leaders committed to bolster the borders of Greece as it struggles to cope with the wave of refugees from Syria and beyond that cross over through Turkey. The leaders decided that reception capacities should be boosted in Greece and along the Balkans migration route to shelter 100,000 more people as winter looms. They agreed to expand border operations and make full use of biometric data like fingerprints as they register and screen migrants, before deciding whether to grant them asylum or send them home. “The immediate imperative is to provide shelter,” European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker said after chairing the mini-summit of 11 regional leaders in Brussels. “It cannot be that in the Europe of 2015 people are left to fend for themselves, sleeping in fields.” Nearly 250,000 people have passed through the Balkans since mid-September. Croatia said 11,500 people entered its territory Saturday, the highest tally in a single day since Hungary put up a fence and refugees started moving sideways into Croatia a month ago. Many are headed northwest to Austria, Germany and Scandinavia where they hope to find a home. “This is one of the greatest litmus tests that Europe has ever faced,” German Chancellor Angela Merkel told reporters after the summit.

PETR DAVID JOSEK / ASSOCIATED PRESS

A child gets a pizza as group of migrants wait to enter a camp in Spielfeld, Austria, on Sunday.

“Europe has to demonstrate that it is a continent of values and of solidarity.” Slovenian Prime Minister Miro Cerar said his small Alpine nation was being overwhelmed by the refugees — with 60,000 arriving in the

past 10 days — and was not receiving enough help from its EU partners. He put the challenge in simple terms: if no fresh approach is forthcoming “in the next few days and weeks, I do believe that the European Union and

Europe as a whole will start to fall apart.” The leaders agreed to rapidly dispatch 400 border guards to Slovenia as a short-term measure. As they arrived at the hastily organized meeting, some leaders traded blame for the influx with their neighbors, with Greece targeted for the mismanagement of its porous island border. “We should go down south and defend the borders of Greece if they are not able to do that,” said Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, who claimed he was only attending the meeting as an “observer” because Hungary is no longer on the migrant route since it tightened borders. But the country that many say is another key source of the flow — Turkey — was not invited, and some leaders said that little could be done without its involvement. “It has to be tackled in Turkey and Greece, and this is just a nice Sunday afternoon talk,” Croatian Prime Minister Zoran Milanovic said, after complaining about having to leave an election campaign to take part in the mini-summit. The refugee emergency has heightened tensions in the Balkans which have simmered since the wars in former Yugoslavia in the 1990s, and some of those strains surfaced in Brussels. Cerar warned that he could be forced to act to ensure security if his EU partners, notably Croatia, do not help ease the migrant strain on his country. He hoped the commitments taken by the leaders would make cooperation much better. They also committed to “discouraging” the movement of migrants toward their neighbors’ borders without asking those countries first. Juncker underlined that the nations had agreed to weekly monitoring of their commitments to ensure compliance with Sunday’s agreement.

Whale watching boat sinks off B.C.; 3 die By Jeremy Hainsworth Associated Press

VANCOUVER, British Columbia — At least three people died after a whale watching boat with 27 people on board sank off Vancouver Island and a rescue mission remained active late Sunday, Canadian authorities said. The vessel made a mayday call late Sunday afternoon on what was a clear and sunny day in the tourist community that is a popular destination for whale watchers, the Joint Rescue Coordination Centre said. Sunday night, Lt. Cmdr. Desmond Craig, a spokesman for the rescue agency staffed by Canadian military and Coast Guard personnel, said four people were pulled from the water without vital signs, but he couldn’t confirm how many had died. Craig could not say how many people on the boat remained unaccounted for. Lt. Cmdr. Desmond James of the center said the boat was partially submerged 8 nautical miles west of Tofino. Valerie Wilson, a spokeswoman for the Island Health

You can’t describe looks on people that are lost. They look totally lost — shocked and lost. — Tom Campbell, Ahoushat First Nation councilor

hospital agency, said eight people had been admitted to Tofino General Hospital. She said seven were stable and one was in serious condition, but stable. “Everybody’s heart is just breaking for what’s going on here and wanting to be as helpful as possible,” Craig said. Coast Guard vessels and search and rescue aircraft were searching for the missing. The helicopter and aircraft being used in the waters off of Tofino had equipment to search in the darkness. Boats from the nearby Ahoushat First Nation arrived first on the scene, said aboriginal Councilor Tom Campbell. He was on the waterfront and watched as rescue personnel brought several survivors ashore.

“Their looks tell the whole story,” he said by phone from Tofino. “You can’t describe looks on people that are lost. They look totally lost — shocked and lost.” Campbell said his cousin pulled at least eight people from the water into a rescue boat. John Forde, who runs The Whale Centre, another whale watching operation, responded to the call for help and was told the search was for four or five missing people. The ship that went down was the 20-meter Leviathan II, operated by Jamie’s Whaling Station, Forde said. He said he had no idea how it could have sunk. “Over the course of a season and years we take out thousands and thousands of people

on these trips in conditions similar today. I have no idea what the issue was or what actually happened,” Forde said. Forde said Jamie’s Whaling Station was one of the first of its kind off Vancouver Island and had been around for many years. It wasn’t the first fatality on the whale watching company’s record. In 1998, one of its vessels capsized during an excursion, sending all four people on board into the water. The operator and a passenger died. Jenn Hamilton, a spokeswoman for British Columbia Emergency Health Services, said five ambulances were dispatched and several off-duty paramedics went to the dock to help. Tofino Mayor Josie Osborne tweeted “thoughts & prayers are with passengers, crew, emergency responders & their families.” The Transportation Safety Board confirmed it was investigating Sunday’s incident. Brandon Hilbert from Tofino Water Taxi said local companies pitched in to help in the rescue effort.

Texas spared destruction from hurricane Associated Press AUSTIN, Texas — Drenching storms that the remnants of Hurricane Patricia dragged into Texas finally cleared Sunday without leaving behind the death or devastation of torrential rain and floods that hit the state earlier in the year. Some parts of Texas have

been pounded by more than a foot of rain since Friday, shutting down busy highways and derailing a train. But relentless showers were gratefully the only comparison to Memorial Day storms that killed more than 30 people in Texas and Oklahoma and stranded 2,500 cars around Houston. No deaths were reported

from the most recent storm. By Sunday morning, as swollen bayous around Houston receded and closed roads reopened in Austin, daybreak revealed scant damage. “We’re going to stand down the emergency management operations and call it a day,” said Galveston County Judge Mark Henry, who had issued a

voluntary evacuation covering roughly 4,000 homes. Patricia roared ashore in Mexico on Friday as a Category 5 terror that barreled toward land with winds up to 200 mph. But the arrival of the most powerful hurricane on record in the Western Hemisphere caused remarkably little destruction.

Biden ‘couldn’t win,’ so opted out of race WASHINGTON — Vice President Joe Biden said he decided against running for president because he “couldn’t win,” not because he would have had too little time to get a campaign up and running. “I’ll be very blunt. If I thought we could’ve put together the campaign ... that our supporters deserve and our contributors deserved, ... I would have done it,” he said Sunday on CBS’ “60 Minutes.” Biden also said he would not have gotten into the race just to stop Democratic front-runner Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Poll: Trump ‘most electable’ Republican voters view Donald Trump as their strongest general election candidate, according to an Associated Press-GfK poll that highlights the sharp contrast between the party’s voters and its top professionals regarding the billionaire businessman. Seven in 10 Republican and Republican-leaning registered voters say Trump could win in November 2016 if he is nominated, and that’s the most who say so of any candidate. Trump is considered among the least electable general election candidates by the Republican Party’s professionals.

Christie: Black Lives Matter ‘creates’ call to kill officers The Black Lives Matter movement is creating an environment that can put police officers at risk, Republican presidential candidate Chris Christie said Sunday, accusing President Barack Obama of supporting the movement, encouraging “lawlessness” and not backing up law enforcement. “I don’t believe that movement should be justified when they are calling for the murder of police officers,” Christie said on CBS’ “Face the Nation.” Told that some individual members have been recorded calling for the deaths of officers, Christie replied that the environment is “what the movement is creating.” Obama last week defended the movement, noting protests are giving voice to a problem happening only in black communities.

Okla.: Parade crash charges A woman faces second-degree murder charges after authorities said she plowed a car into the crowd at the Oklahoma State University homecoming parade in Stillwater, killing four people. Adacia Chambers, 25, was arrested after the crash on a driving while under the influence charge, and authorities said Sunday they added four charges of second-degree murder. But Chambers’ attorney, Tony Coleman, said, “I absolutely can rule out alcohol.”

AROUND THE WORLD Poland: Euroskeptic victory Poland took a decisive turn to the right in its parliamentary election Sunday, tossing out the centrist party that had governed for eight years for a socially conservative and Euroskeptic party that wants to keep migrants out and spend more on Poland’s own poor. An exit poll showed the conservative Law and Justice party winning 39 percent of the vote, enough to govern alone without forming a coalition.

Egypt: Pyramids scans Scientists will scan four of Egypt’s ancient pyramids starting next month using waves, particles and thermal imaging to see what lies beneath their surfaces. Antiquities Minister Mamdouh Eldamaty said the project will begin south of Cairo with the scanning of the so-called Bent Pyramid at Dashour, followed by the Red Pyramid. Later, the two largest pyramids on the Giza plateau, those of Cheops and Chephren, will be scanned.

France: Crash memorial Hundreds of mourners marched Sunday to commemorate the victims of France’s deadliest road accident in more than 30 years. Prior to the march, family members of the 43 people who died in Friday’s fiery crash between a truck and a bus full of retirees gathered for a church ceremony in Petit-Palais-etCornemps — a village in southwestern France where many of the victims lived. Police have not yet identified the cause of the crash. The victims included 41 people on the bus and the truck driver and his 3-year-old son. From Herald news services

Health care calls for business savvy By Jocelyn Robinson For The Herald Business Journal

A master’s degree in business may seem like an odd education for a nurse, but for Amanda Crain it was a perfect fit. Crain, the director of nursing services at the Puget Sound Kidney Centers, is in her final quarter of earning an MBA from Western Washington University’s Weekend MBA program. Crain earned an associate’s degree in nursing in 2003 and immediately went to work at the Puget Sound Kidney Center. She started as a floor nurse, moved into a direct care manager position a few years later and eventually became director of nursing services. She went back to school and earned her bachelor’s degree in nursing. A potential job promotion opened up at the Puget Sound Kidney Centers, but Crain faced an obstacle — she didn’t have an MBA. Health care has become extremely regulated. Combined with benchmarks on quality the centers must meet, the business side of nursing has become more complicated. “It’s really gotten us to think about the cost of care and trying to be efficient but still give good care,” Crain said. “It’s challenging.” Crain enrolled in WWU’s Weekend MBA program, which is offered through the University Center on Everett Community College’s campus. The curriculum offered in Everett mirrors WWU’s evening MBA program in Bellingham. Both are two-year

programs aimed at working adults. Kati Johnson, the associate director of WWU’s MBA program, said the part-time program attracts students from a variety of backgrounds. “They’re all working professionals that are embedded in their organizations,” Johnson said. “They’re already in a midmanagement type role and are

looking to take that next step.” In today’s job market, many people may want to get their MBAs but aren’t willing to leave their jobs to return to school fulltime, said Johnson. “But for folks who are working and wanting to take steps to advance in their industries, a part-time program can be a really nice fit,” she said. “We’re offering something you really can’t get in

that area unless you’re willing to commute into Seattle.” The first year is strong on the fundamentals of business — classes in accounting, finance, statistics and economics. “Once you have those foundations built, then you will work at looking at those from a managerial perspective and putting all the pieces together,” Johnson said.

Crain appreciated the management aspect of the program. “I really was expecting all these finance and business classes and I was very surprised and glad to see so much emphasis on good leadership and good stewardship,” Crain said. “I think that’s what I enjoyed the most.” Only two courses are offered each semester; classes in Everett are held in eight-hour blocks every other Friday and Saturday. “It’s the only way I think I could have done that,” said Crain, who is married with two young children. Anything more than two classes would probably be impossible to manage, since most students are juggling fulltime jobs and school, assistant professor Burak Dolar said. An MBA can be beneficial to people in a variety of industries, said Dolar, who teaches accounting. “As long as you’re in a decisionmaking position in a company, you have to understand the basics of business,” Dolar said. “You might have the brightest idea as a marketing person, but if those ideas don’t make financial sense, they’re not going to take you seriously.” For Crain, getting her degree in Everett was a familiar experience: She earned her associate’s at Everett Community College and her bachelor’s through the University of Washington at EvCC. “I’ve gotten three different degrees from three different colleges in one place that’s 15 minutes from my house,” she said. “It’s been amazing.”

Glassmaker finds home in Arlington By Jocelyn Robinson For the Herald Business Journal

At the age of 57, Momka Peeva left her native Bulgaria and immigrated to the United States to be closer to her granddaughter. She didn’t speak much English, didn’t know how to drive a car and struggled to find a job. More than 20 years later, she’s become a well-known name in the glass industry, owning Momka’s Glass in Arlington. Peeva is a chemical engineer and has a master’s degree in the technology of glass. “I know very well the chemistry of glass,” she said. In fact, she knows it so well, she wrote a book in 1993 — “Technology of Glass” — that she said is still the standard text in Bulgaria today. She was the director of a technical high school in Bulgaria and was a contributor to the Bulgarian Institute of Glass and Ceramics. Her work in Bulgaria focused more on soft glass, not the colored glass rods she’s known for today. Glass can be separated into two categories — hard glass and soft glass. Soft glass is the type likely found in windows or wine glasses. Hard glass is frequently used in cookware because it can withstand higher temperatures. Both kinds of glass are used in the art world. Blown-glass sculptures, like those by Dale Chihuly, use soft glass. Hard glass is often melted over a flame and used in everything from glass beads to pipes to ornamental art. “(Hard glass) is kind of like Play-Doh,” said Igor Peeva, who is Peeva’s son and helps with marketing. “It has that

consistency when you melt it.” Momka Peeva works with borosilicate glass, a hard glass more commonly known by one of its trade names, Pyrex. She creates colored boro glass rods that are about 10 to 20 inches long and about the thickness of a pencil. Her specialty is creating different colors of boro glass, which she developed for a company in Portland, Oregon, soon after she immigrated to the United States in 1993. Before Peeva came along, the company’s color options were limited. “They only had blue, dark green,” Peeva said. “I developed the bright colors.” But Peeva felt her efforts at the company were unappreciated, and she struck out on her own, starting Momka’s Glass in 2004. She brought her son, Geo, a mechanical engineer, over from Bulgaria to help with the business. “We named it Momka’s Glass because the people who use the

colors I did for another company, they know my name,” Peeva said. “The artists could recognize who’s doing the good color.” Momka’s Glass did well in its early years and they added four employees. But business dropped when the financial crisis hit in 2008, and the extra employees were laid off. Peeva was also struggling to maintain the business while paying higher rent on a shop in Lynnwood. “We started to look for a cheaper place and my son, Geo, found a house and shop and big property in Arlington,” Peeva said. “We started to do glass in our own shop.” While they bring in part-time help every once in a while, it’s mostly just Peeva and Geo creating the glass rods. They offer more than 90 products in colors ranging from “Caribbean Coral” to “Scarlet Pink” to “Plum Harvest.” The boro glass industry on the West Coast has grown considerably in recent years, especially

IN OUR VIEW | Monte Cristo Awards

Everett and pride of place Everett’s annual Monte Cristo Awards are an inspiring antidote to the current general tendency to tear things down — buildings and people alike. The tradition was created in 1994 by a committee of residents, to celebrate other residents, and the work they’ve done to improve their properties, whether home or business. To develop the idea, the Monte Cristo Awards committee worked with the Office of Neighborhoods, which is the organizational backbone of the different communities in Everett, giving them identity and bringing people together. This isn’t about developers, or homebuilders or big business. It’s about neighbors. This year, 40 people were recognized at the Oct. 8 ceremony honoring the recipients. Among them were Debra and Adan Balangue, winners of an award in the rejuvenation and transformation category. They turned their rocky and brown front yard into a beautiful, nursery-worthy display of flowers,

in their Evergreen neighborhood, as The Herald’s Gale Fiege reported. The Balangue’s bought their home in early 2010 and began its transformation about three years ago. Talk about time and commitment. Which is one reason why all winners deserve a hearty congratulations. In the friendly business category, winners included: Corey Burke of Absolute Auto Body, Cascade View; Stephanie Moss of Artesia by the Lake, Silver Lake; Leslie Patchen of Metco Management Group, Silver Lake; Linda Smith and Robert Rohder of Super Supplements, Port Gardner; and Angie Carozzo and Gary Swett of Oh Sweet

Chocolate, Port Gardner. Carozzo, also profiled earlier in The Herald by Gale Fiege, opened her chocolate shop, which is across the street from the Schack Art Center on Hoyt Avenue, between Wall Street and Hewitt Avenue, on Valentine’s Day last year. It’s safe to say the place has been embraced by

the neighborhood, and beyond. Like so many of the good places downtown, the shop displays local art. Oh Sweet Chocolate adds to the growing vibrancy of that downtown area, anchored by the Shack, with a surrounding mix of vintage stores and restaurants. It’s a live-affirming area, with the extremely popular and award-winning Imagine Children’s Museum on Wall Street and the Monte Cristo Ballroom wedding venue across the way. It is really fun to see people in their wedding finery walking along Hoyt from the parking garage to the ballroom. It’s a fun shopping area, with Goodwill nearby, and new and vintage goods to be found at Home Inspirations at Hewitt and Hoyt. Another excellent mainstay is the Bayview Antique Mall and other shops near it, most notably now, Hot Rod Heidi’s Vintage Closet, at Hewitt and Grand. The vintage clothing store with its cute facade and window displays

is a 100 percent improvement over the pawn shop that occupied the space before. Behind the store is another business, Sunken Ship Tattoo and Piercing, which also has a fun facade. (It was voted The Herald Readers’ choice for Snohomish County Best of 2015 tattoo parlor.) On Rucker Avenue, Mishu Boutique a is a fair trade company that has two stores in Seattle and sells creative, alternative (hip), affordable clothing. They hire local designers to create patterns and samples for their collections. The Monte Cristo awards remind us of how much one or two people or a business can influence their surroundings for the better. The pride is contagious, and it’s great. Tell your neighbor how you appreciate what they’ve done. Seek out and patronize new and old businesses that make Everett the way you want it to be. And while you’re at it, nominate them for a Monte Cristo Award.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■EVERETT CITY COUNCIL

Franklin’s vision will benefit city

As an Everett business owner, I am excited by the opportunity our community has to elect Cassie Franklin to the Everett City Council. Cassie has both the compassion and the business experience to lead. She has shared with me her vision for the city of Everett and I have been impressed with her ideas and common sense approach. Cassie understands how to make our streets safe and the importance of supporting job growth. Our community needs more leaders who have the integrity and voice Cassie will bring to the council. That is why I am writing to express my confidence in and give my endorsement for Cassie Franklin. Buzz Rodland, Owner Rodland Toyota Everett

■■COUNTY COUNCIL

Tisdel needed for real change Before you vote, do yourself and your county a favor by recalling some of the headlines from The Herald over the past few years: “Lawyer seeks $2M over property for now-shelved courthouse” (10/14/15); “County Council delays vote on hiring freeze” (9/17/15); “Cost overruns, location, parking needs put courthouse on hold” (8/31/15); “Issues over raises for county officials unresolved” (12/26/14); “County council members already worried about 2015 budget” (8/14/14); “County to condemn land for new courthouse”(6/25/14); “Tax hike likely needed to pay for new courthouse” (9/23/13); and “Surprise $1.6 million added to courthouse cost” (6/14/13). These headlines are a result of failed leadership at the county level. It’s up to us, as voters, to hold our elected officials accountable. If we turn a blind eye to the failures of the past few years, we’ll just get more of the same. Our county government is broken and it’s going to take fresh perspectives to get us back on track. Greg Tisdel will bring a no-nonsense approach to our county government. His leadership experience in business, countless boards and commissions, and in serving our community with non-profits is exactly what is needed to restore

confidence in our county government. That’s why Greg Tisdel is supported by such a wide spectrum of individuals. Greg Tisdel has accomplished much for our community as a citizen; he’ll be even more effective working to fix government from within. Michael Swanson Everett

■■COUNTY EXECUTIVE

Somers protects environment I have been working in Snohomish County on land use and environmental issues for over 20 years. I have worked with three different county executives, many County Council members, and associated county staff. I am wholeheartedly supporting Dave Somers for Snohomish County Executive, and I ask for you to do the same. Here are some of the reasons why: Under John Lovick’s administration, attempts to weaken rules that protect our environment and communities have occurred, such as exempting some developments from federal water quality standards, putting more new growth and development into the outskirts of urban growth areas and rural areas where roads, services, and water are lacking, and opposing new landslide regulations that would better protect people and property. Dave Somers consistently opposed these attempts. Currently, Mr. Lovick wants to ease rules for environmental review, which prevents the public from getting involved in bad development decisions, a problem that has persisted at the county for decades. Dave Somers is adamantly opposed to such a notion. Dave Somers is a champion of our environment and

our communities. He fought to keep a new city of 15,000 people from being built at Lake Roesiger and fought for a countywide Transfer of Development Rights program to save farmland for the future. As executive, Dave will continue working every day to keep Snohomish County a great place to live. Please join me and vote for Dave Somers for County Executive!

■■COMMUNITY TRANSIT

Prop 1 will only help bus business

Paul Kaftanski was elected to serve us in position No. 3 in 2011. Paul took my place after serving you for eight years. I supported Paul in 2011 and I am equally proud and honored to support him for another four-year term. Paul has done an excellent job on council. Paul has made sure that we pay attention to what really matters. He is a supporter of restoring our own Carnegie Library building. He donates his time to helping maintain our parks. He has protected our city from proposals such as apodments and recreational marijuana. He has supported the city’s efforts to diversify our businesses and bring more living wage jobs to Snohomish. And he is committed to helping ensure that the city brings in as many grant dollars to build projects for all our benefit. Paul listens, cares about our community and is committed to serving us with both his mind and heart. He is smart, logical, passionate and a leader. Vote to re-elect Paul Kaftanski to the Snohomish City Council.

I couldn’t agree more with David Gibson’s Oct. 22 letter to the editor concerning the inability of numerous residents in Snohomish County to vote on a sales tax increase via Proposition 1 because we do not reside within the Community Transit service district. As outlined by Mr. Gibson, we may not live within its boundaries, but we certainly do our shopping there. So how ironic that today I received a mailing from CommunityTransitNOW.org asking for my vote on Prop 1. Included within was a list of the top five contributors funding the proposition. They are: Alexander Dennis, Inc.; Gillig; ATU International; ATU Local 1576; and Parsons Brinkerhoff. A quick Internet search revealed them to be, in order, a bus and coach manufacturer, a transit bus manufacturer, a transit employees union, a transit employees local, and an engineering/construction management company. Prop 1 is being billboarded as a boon to county residents, promising less traffic and more economic growth. The companies and organizations funding it, though, reveals it for what it really is: a boondoggle project that will line the pockets of the companies that will provide the new buses, the union that operates the new buses, and the company that will design and manage construction on the new routes. I encourage all residents who can vote to look beyond the “it’s only $3 a month” punchline and see the joke on all of us that lies within: Prop 1 is another taxpayer funded cash cow for a very select group of people. Please vote no on Prop 1.

Hearing puts Clinton on the hot seat

T

hursday’s House Select Committee on Benghazi hearing delivered what oversight hearings so often do. One party was on the offensive; the other party was cheerleading the politician on the hot seat. As the questions kept coming, there was no smoking gun; in between bipartisan bloviating, however, there were some damning revelations about what former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton knew and when she knew it. Two gaffes set the tone for the hearing. The first came from House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, who told Fox News: “Everybody thought Hillary Clinton was unbeatable, DEBRA J. SAUNDERS right? But we put together a Benghazi special committee, a select committee. What are her numbers today? Her numbers are dropping. Why? Because she’s untrustable. But no one would have known any of that had happened had we not fought.” Committee Chairman Trey Gowdy did not appreciate McCarthy’s candor -- as it allowed Clinton boosters to dismiss the committee as overly partisan. The hearing was partisan; Republicans asked probing questions. With the notable exception of Rep. Tammy Duckworth, D-Ill., Democrats chastised Republicans for asking probing questions. The second gaffe came from Clinton during the first Democratic presidential debate. Asked to name the enemy she is proudest of making, Clinton replied, “Well, in addition to the NRA, the health insurance companies, the drug companies, (and) the Iranians, probably the Republicans.” To the Republican part, the audience responded with cheers and laughter; it seems partisanship isn’t always evil. Vice President Joe Biden has chastised Clinton for describing Republicans as “enemies” instead of “opponents” — and rightly so. If Clinton did not spend every minute of her waking life trying to outsmart the other party and often failing, the Sept. 11, 2012, attacks in Benghazi and the deaths of Americans Chris Stevens, Sean Smith, Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods would be considered a national tragedy, not a political football. Three days after the attacks, Clinton spoke before the four draped caskets of the Benghazi fallen and denounced violence sparked by “an awful Internet video that we had nothing to do with.” It was a presidential election year. The Obama administration preferred to sell the fiction that the deaths were the result of a protest sparked by Islamophobia over what it knew to be the truth -- that the Americans were killed by armed terrorists. The House Benghazi Committee released new information that shows that from the very start, Clinton knew the video was not responsible for the attacks. On the night of the attacks, before she learned of the deaths of Doherty and Woods at the CIA annex, Clinton emailed her daughter, “Two of our officers were killed in Benghazi by an (al-Qaida)-like group.” The next day, according to State Department notes, she told Egyptian Prime Minister Hesham Kandil: “The attack in Libya had nothing to do with the film. ... It was a planned attack, not a protest.” Do I blame the Obama administration for these deaths? No. I blame al-Qaida affiliate Ansar al-Sharia for the violence. I blame Clinton and the Obama administration for trying to paper over a threat to U.S. national security. When the administration should have been sending out a posse to get the killers, the State Department was pointing in the wrong direction. No doubt Clinton will benefit from the optics — a bank of congressmen looking down on a lone woman, who kept her cool as their barrage of queries pushed into overtime. It’s not every day that the former first lady and secretary of state can play the underdog. Democrats love to see Clinton as a martyr, even if she is on the hot seat because of her own bad decisions. She decided to do State Department business on her own email account with a private server. She destroyed emails she deemed private. She claims to have handed over all relevant correspondence, but her pal Sidney Blumenthal produced emails the State Department had not delivered to investigators. So yes, it takes a committee to pry information out of her. Where Democrats see an underdog, Republicans smell a rat. Email Debra J. Saunders at dsaunders@ sfchronicle.com.

prepared statement. “That’s not sound public policy in our view. That’s a gamble.” For now, the discussion is taking place within the council’s public safety committee. Much of the talk during the Oct. 7 meeting centered on which choices should be up to management and which require major policy decisions from elected council members. “I don’t understand why we’re being asked to make decisions that we really don’t have the expertise to make,” Councilwoman Brenda Stonecipher said. Everett, like many cities, faces ever-rising costs for public safety. The police and fire departments accounted for roughly half of the city’s expenses in 2015. The fire department’s budget of $29 million includes emergency medical services, but not other costs such as retired firefighter pensions, fire trucks and aid cars.

Gary Ridgway, the Green River killer, back at prison in Walla Walla His transfer in May to a Colorado prison upset investigators and relatives of his victims.

state prison in Walla Walla on Saturday from the federal penitentiary in Florence, Colorado, The Seattle Times reported. He had been in Colorado since May. Ridgway is serving life without parole for the killings of 49 women over a 20-year spree, and he’s suspected of having murdered dozens more. Officials said they would have saved money by keeping him in Colorado, and that it would have provided him with an opportunity to live in the general prison population instead of being kept in solitary for his own protection in Washington.

Any time he left solitary at Walla Walla, he had to be accompanied by a security team, officials said. They reasoned that he’d be less well known and less of a target in Colorado, but investigators said it could hinder future investigations if they didn’t have easy access to Ridgway. They and victims’ relatives were also angered to learn that he had been transferred without their input. In a statement Sunday, U.S. Rep. Dave Reichert, who investigated Ridgway during his years in the King County Sheriff’s Office, said he approved of the

killer’s return. “Last June when we learned that the Washington State Department of Corrections justified the transfer of Ridgway to Colorado by describing him as a model prisoner, the victims’ families, dedicated detectives, scientists, patrol officers, and hundreds of volunteers involved in the Green River case were rightly shocked and outraged,” he said. “On behalf of those that lost their loved ones, I will do everything in my power to ensure that Ridgway spends the rest of his days where he belongs, alone behind thick cement cell walls.”

The study did not look at outsourcing the fire department or otherwise consolidating services with nearby fire districts, a popular topic in Snohomish County these days. Stephanson said he has never seen a successful model proposed to Everett, in particular one that includes an exit clause if the city isn’t happy. He would be willing to talk about it, if the council requested it, he said. “When I added all the pluses and minuses, my direction to the (fire) chief was I think it’s a bad idea, and it’s something, at this point, I just wasn’t willing to pursue,” he said. The study also didn’t focus on the aid agreements between Everett and neighboring agencies, which govern how Fire District 1 and Everett firefighters, among others,

help each other out during busy times and major incidents. Both aid agreements and outsourcing came up at the recent meeting. In August, though, commissioners at Fire District 1, based in unincorporated south Everett, complained that district resources were too often being deployed to cover calls within city limits. That could become a sticky topic, with the fire district considering possible negotiations with the city over a potential charge per incident. That move, if it happens, is guaranteed to inspire spirited debate. Meanwhile, Stephanson has asked Fire Chief Murray Gordon for monthly progress reports on the Fitch study talks. Information from those reports is supposed to be shared with the public. Rikki King: 425-339-3449; rking@heraldnet.com.

DAILY CROSSWORD

Short, sweet answers to parental questions

A

collection of “shorties” — questions from parents that require less than 100-word answers: Q: Can you tell me why my 34-month-old daughter is throwing so many tantrums? A: She throws tantrums because you don’t obey her. After two years of being the center of attention, it’s difficult for her to accept that she’s not ringmaster of the family circus. Q: So what should I do when she throws a tantrum? A: Assign her tantrums to a rug or some other “tantrum place.” When she has a fit, drag her to her special rug and walk away. Q: My 5-year-old still sucks her thumb. I have tried various means of getting her to stop, but she persists. Any advice? A: My wife and I told our thumb-sucking daughter, Amy, when she was five that she could suck her thumb in her room only. If we found her doing it elsewhere, we sent her to her room. Not as punishment, mind you, but simply to put it out of sight, to describe some geographical limits around it. She quickly gave it up.

JOHN ROSEMOND LIVING WITH CHILDREN Q: I want my 24-month-old son to learn to drink from an open cup. Sippy cups drive me nuts. Any advice? A: Sippy cups are found in the hands of kids as old as five these days because so many kids no longer drink water. They drink colored, sweetened junk liquids that stain if spilled. The way to teach a child to drink from an open cup is to put water in it. Begin with a small amount and gradually increase it as his cup-holding mastery improves. Sippy cups should be over and done with by 24 months. After that, they interfere with hand-eye coordination. Q: How do you feel about leashes for children? My husband and I were recently in

Unless, that is, you have a specific reason that she should come out of her room, in which case you should insist upon it. If this is the only problem you have with a 14-year-old, give praise and thanks and leave well enough alone. Q: My 15-year-old son has been invited to a boy-girl sleepover.

Man divorces, remarries, THE NEW YORK TIMES CROSSWORD PUZZLE then returns to ex-wife ACROSS

1 1969 and 1986 World

Dear Abby: My ex-husband and I have been back together for eight months. We were divorced for two years, during which time he remarried. We stayed in contact during his second marriage and he says he still loves me, so he left her. He’s now back with me after living on his own for a few months. I’m frustrated because he won’t commit to me again. He says he has forgiven me for what broke up our marriage, but he will never consider remarrying me. He says he has lost faith in all women. He says one marriage to me was enough and that he’s confused. He told me it’s fine with him if I put my rings back on. He introduces me as his wife when we’re out together, but won’t divorce his second wife. I know I’m coming on too strong and pressuring him to be the man he used to be. I just don’t think it’s right that he should get all the benefits of having his wife and children back with none of the commitment. Am I trapping myself in a hopeless relationship that’s going to leave me a divorcee? — Hopeless In Missouri Dear Hopeless: I think we both know the answer to that. Your ex has stated clearly that he will never consider remarrying you. Under these circumstances, your wedding rings should remain in the drawer. While he may introduce you as his wife, you are NOT his wife. His WIFE is his wife, which entitles her to all the rights and privileges of her status as a spouse according to the laws of Missouri. Give your ex plenty of time to “heal” WHILE LIVING ON HIS OWN. If he is confused, insist that he work his issues through with a therapist. Allowing him to stay with you while married RIP HAYWIRE

DEAR ABBY to someone else was a mistake. You should have thought through how the arrangement might affect your children before you agreed to it. Dear Abby: My mother comes from a large family. While most of the time everyone is kind and fairly respectful, there have been several occasions when gossiping family members have said hurtful things. Most recently, a comment was made about my 29-year-old brother. He is unmarried and isn’t dating anyone. He works two jobs and also participates in fishing tournaments. Someone commented that he “must be gay” because he “has guys sleep over at his house” and “doesn’t have a girlfriend.” For the record, my brother is straight. His fishing teammates sleep over because they leave at 3 a.m. for their tournaments. This really annoyed my mom and me. It’s no one’s business how he chooses to live his life, straight or gay. While we try to distance ourselves from their comments, staying quiet about them is becoming more and more difficult. What can we say without sinking to their level? — Seething In Ohio Dear Seething: How about being direct: “My brother/son is not gay. Please stop spreading rumors about him that aren’t true because it’s really annoying.” Universal Uclick

BRIDGE Some players might admit that the best part of their game is being dummy. But it’s the worst part for Cy the Cynic. He expects all his partners to goof. When Cy was North in a penny game, West led a diamond at the second trick. South won, ruffed a diamond and led a trump to the queen. East took the king and returned a diamond. South threw a heart, won in dummy and drew trumps. He led a heart to his queen, but East got two heart tricks.

The result was down one, and the Cynic was frustrated and showed it. “A fool and my money are soon parted,” Cy grumbled. At the third trick, South does best to take the ace of trumps. A finesse against West, who preempted, is not a favorite. South next cashes the second high diamond, ruffs a diamond, ruffs a club in dummy and ruffs a diamond. South then ruffs his last club in dummy. If East doesn’t overruff, South exits with a trump, and East must lead a heart, letting South lose only one heart and only

No slowing down for kings of the road By Kristin M. Hall Associated Press

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — When Kenny Rogers announced that he was retiring from touring, the Oak Ridge Boys were saddened. “I have always thought, if Kenny Rogers can still be doing it, we can still be doing it,” said Richard Sterban, the group’s bass singer. “After next year, Kenny won’t be doing it and there will be a void.” But don’t expect the fourpart vocal group to follow Rogers’ lead anytime soon. They are as busy as they have ever been, traveling to Branson, Missouri, almost every weekend to perform at the theater named after them and getting ready to do a 31-city Christmas tour that kicks off around Thanksgiving. On Sunday, Bonsall, Sterban, Duane Allen and William Lee Golden, who have all been performing together since 1973 as

the Oak Ridge Boys, were inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame as one of the few gospel acts to successfully transition to secular music and become hit makers in multiple genres. The band’s origins date back to the Oak Ridge Quartet formed in 1945 by gospel icon Wally Fowler. The name of the band and the members changed during the 1950s and 1960s, but by the early 1970s, the band’s current

lineup started outgrowing the genre. They had four Grammys for gospel performances already, but signed to a new label in the hopes of reaching a wider audience. “We were sort of the renegade gospel band,” Bonsall said. “We grew our hair longer. We didn’t dress alike. Our songs were cooler. We hired a band and had a rock n’ roll drummer. We drove people crazy in Southern gospel in those days.” They were helped out by

artists like Johnny Cash and Rogers, who invited them out to play arenas with him on his Full House tour with Dottie West in 1979. They started having country hits like, “Y’all Come Back Saloon,” “I’ll Be True to You,” and then their biggest hit, “Elvira,” which took off in 1981. In the 1980s, they headlined arenas and amphitheaters and even Garth Brooks opened for them. Bonsall said the key to their longevity is recognizing that no one individual is greater than the group. “We are spokes in the wheel and the wheel turns,” Bonsall said. “Each individual spoke brings individual talents and ideas and different personalities to the table that makes this group go.” And the wheel is still turning. “We are still having fun doing this and we love what we are doing,” Sterban said. “At least for the short term certainly, we plan to keep on singing.”

Laser treatment may ease pain for ‘napalm girl’ By Jennifer Kay Associated Press

MIAMI — In the photograph that made Kim Phuc a living symbol of the Vietnam War, her burns aren’t visible — only her agony as she runs wailing toward the camera, her arms flung away from her body, naked because she has ripped off her burning clothes. More than 40 years later she can hide the scars beneath long sleeves, but a single tear down her otherwise radiant face betrays the pain she has endured since that errant napalm strike in 1972. Now she has a new chance to heal — a prospect she once thought possible only in a life after death. “So many years I thought that I have no more scars, no more pain when I’m in heaven. But now — heaven on earth for me!” Phuc says upon her arrival in Miami to see a dermatologist who specializes in laser treatments for burn patients. Last month, Phuc, 52, began laser treatments that her doctor, Jill Waibel of the Miami Dermatology and Laser Institute, says will smooth and soften the pale, thick scar tissue that ripples from her left hand up her arm, up her neck to her hairline and down almost all of her back. Even more important to Phuc, Waibel says the treatments also will relieve the deep aches and pains that plague her to this day. With Phuc are her husband, Bui Huy Toan, and another man who has been part of her life since she was 9 years old: Los

Angeles-based Associated Press photojournalist Nick Ut. “He’s the beginning and the end,” Phuc says of the man she calls “Uncle Ut.” ‘’He took my picture and now he’ll be here with me with this new journey, new chapter.” It was Ut, now 65, who captured Phuc’s agony on June 8, 1972, after the South Vietnamese military accidentally dropped napalm on civilians in Phuc’s village, Trang Bang, outside Saigon. Ut remembers the girl screaming in Vietnamese, “Too hot! Too hot!” He put her in the AP van where she crouched on the floor, her burnt skin raw and peeling off her body as she sobbed, “I think I’m dying, too hot, too hot, I’m dying.” He took her to a hospital. Only then did he return to the Saigon bureau to file his photographs, including the one of Phuc on fire that would win the Pulitzer Prize. Phuc suffered serious burns over a third of her body; at that time, most people who sustained such injuries over 10 percent of their bodies died, Waibel says. Napalm sticks like a jelly, so there was no way for victims like Phuc to outrun the heat. “The fire was stuck on her for a very long time,” Waibel says, and destroyed her skin down through the layer of collagen, leaving her with scars almost four times as thick as normal skin. While she spent years doing painful exercises to preserve her range of motion, her left arm still

Television crews and South Vietnamese troops surround 9-year-old Kim Phuc on Route 1 near Trang Bang on June 8, 1972. A a South Vietnamese plane targeting suspected Viet Cong accidentally dropped napalm on her civilian village. The terrified girl had ripped off her burning clothes while fleeing, but still had serious burns over a third of her body.

doesn’t extend as far as her right arm, and her desire to learn how to play the piano has been thwarted by stiffness in her left hand. Tasks as simple as carrying her purse on her left side are too difficult. Triggered by scarred nerve endings that misfire at random, her pain is especially acute when the seasons change in Canada, where Phuc defected with her husband in the early

1990s. The couple live outside Toronto, and they have two sons, ages 21 and 18. Phuc says her Christian faith brought her physical and emotional peace “in the midst of hatred, bitterness, pain, loss, hopelessness,” when the pain seemed insurmountable. “No operation, no medication, no doctor can help to heal my heart. The only one is a miracle, (that) God love me,” she says. “I just

wish one day I am free from pain.” Ut thinks of Phuc as a daughter, and he worried when, during their regular phone calls, she described her pain. Ut says he’s also worried about the treatments. “Forty-three years later, how is laser doing this? I hope the doctor can help her. ... When she was 18 or 20, but now she’s over 50! That’s a long time.” Waibel has been using lasers to treat burn scars, including napalm scars, for about a decade. Each treatment typically costs $1,500 to $2,000, but Waibel offered to donate her services when Phuc contacted her for a consultation. Waibel’s father-in-law had heard Phuc speak at a church, and he approached her after hearing her describe her pain. At the first treatment in Waibel’s office, Phuc’s husband holds her hand in prayer. Phuc tells Waibel her pain is “10 out of 10” — the worst of the worst.

The type of lasers being used on Phuc’s scars originally were developed to smooth out wrinkles around the eyes, Waibel says. The lasers heat skin to the boiling point to vaporize scar tissue. Once sedatives have been administered and numbing cream spread thickly over Phuc’s skin, Waibel dons safety glasses and aims the laser. Again and again, a red square appears on Phuc’s skin, the laser fires with a beep. The procedure creates microscopic holes in the skin, which allows topical, collagen-building medicines to be absorbed deep through the layers of tissue. Waibel expects Phuc to need up to seven treatments over the next eight or nine months. A couple of weeks later, home in Canada, Phuc says her scars have reddened and feel tight and itchy as they heal — but she’s eager to continue the treatments. “Maybe it takes a year,” she says. “But I am really excited — and thankful.”

1VCMJD /PUJDFT NOTICE OF ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW FINDINGS AND NOTICE OF INTENT TO REQUEST RELEASE OF FUNDS October 26, 2015 Snohomish County Office of Housing and Community Development 3000 Rockefeller Ave, M/S 305 Administration Building West, 4th Floor Everett, WA 98201 (425) 388-3260 THIS NOTICE SERVES TWO PURPOSES: 1. NOTICE OF FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT AND, 2. NOTICE OF INTENT TO REQUEST RELEASE OF FUNDS Snohomish County receives funds for various affordable housing and community development projects and activities, under programs administered by the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development (“HUD�). Under these programs, HUD has d e l e g a t e d t o S n o h o m i s h C o u n t y t h e r e s p o n s i b i l i t y fo r environmental review and decision making under the National Environmental Policy Act and other applicable Federal laws and Authorities. On or about November 11, 2015, Snohomish County will submit a request to Washington HUD, for the release of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds under Title 1 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as amended, to undertake a project known as Haller Park Restroom being proposed by the City of Arlington. The project is for reconstruction of an ADA accessible restroom facility and adjoining community activity shelter which will replace the existing non-ADA accessible restroom facility. The project site is located at 127 Cox Avenue, Arlington, WA 98223. Snohomish County has completed all individual activities and logical review of the described project, to which the County intends to make an award of 2015 CDBG Program funds in the amount of $158,473. FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT The Environmental Review Record (ERR) documents the environmental determinations for the proposed project for which a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) on the environment was found. The activities proposed comprise a project for which a FONSI on the environment was published on October 26, 2015. An Environmental Review Record (ERR) that documents the environmental determinations for this project is on file at the Snohomish County Office of Housing and Community Development, 3000 Rockefeller Ave, Admin. Bldg. West, 4th Floor, Everett, WA 98201 and may be examined or copied Monday through Friday, 8 am to 5 pm. PUBLIC COMMENTS Any individual, group, or agency may submit written comments on the ERR to Snohomish County, Office of Housing and Community Development, 3000 Rockefeller Ave, Administration Building West, 4th Floor, Everett, WA 98201. All comments received by 5:00 PM on November 10, 2015 will be considered by the Snohomish County Office of Housing and Community Development prior to submission of a request for release of funds. Comments should specify which Notice is being addressed. RELEASE OF FUNDS Snohomish County certifies to U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development, Washington that John Lovick in his capacity as County Executive consents to accept the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts if an action is brought to enforce responsibilities in relation to the environmental review process and that these r e s p o n s i b i l i t i e s h ave b e e n s a t i s f i e d . H U D, Wa s h i n g t o n ’s acceptance of the certification satisfies its responsibilities under NEPA and allows Snohomish County to use Program funds. OBJECTIONS TO RELEASE OF FUNDS HUD, Washington will accept objections to its release of funds and Snohomish County cer tification for a period of fifteen days following the anticipated submission date or its actual receipt of the request (whichever is later) only if it is on one of the following bases: (a) the certification was not executed by the Certifying Officer of Snohomish County (b) Snohomish County has omitted a step or failed to make a decision or finding required by HUD regulations at 24 CFR Part 58; (c) the grant recipient has incurred costs not authorized by 24 CFR Part 58 before approval of a release of funds by U.S. HUD, Washington or (d) another Federal agency acting pursuant to 40 CFR Part 1504 has submitted a written finding that the project is unsatisfactory from the standpoint of environmental quality. Objections must be prepared and submitted in accordance with the required procedures (24 CFR Part 58) and shall be written and addressed to U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development, Attention: Office of Community Planning & Development, 909 First Avenue, Seattle, WA 981041000. Based on Snohomish County’s intent to submit the Certification to HUD on November 11, 2015 it is estimated that the end of HUD’s fifteen day period for considering objections will be November 26, 2015. No objection received by HUD, Washington after that date will be considered. Anyone with questions about any part of this notice and comment procedure may also contact S n o h o m i s h C o u n t y ’s O f f i c e o f H o u s i n g a n d C o m m u n i t y Development staff by telephone, at (425) 388-3260. Potential objectors should contact the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development, Attention: Office of Community Planning & Development, 909 First Avenue, Seattle, WA 98104-1000 to verify the actual last day of the objection period.

Refuse to let anyone bully you into doing things that will not end up benefiting you. You will be in a better position to help others once you have established your future goals. Your numbers are 2, 13, 17, 23, 28, 39, 41. ARIES (March 21-April 19): You'll be emotionally impulsive. Get your facts straight before getting into a debate.

Don't make assumptions. Listen to what others have to say and respond accordingly. Watch someone with experience navigate like a pro when doing business. Romance will improve your personal life. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Double-check any information you receive. Someone is likely to leave out a vital fact that will deter you from reaching your goal. Don't let a relationship with someone you love interfere with your work responsibilities. ★★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Finish what you start. A plan to refurbish something or make your life easier at home will come under scrutiny if you don't have the approval of the people who will be affected by the changes you make. Share your plans before getting started. ★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): A short trip, change of plans or spending time with someone different will get you all fired up and raring to get things done.

Your ability to adapt to change without skipping a beat will buy you the time you need to complete whatever goals you have set. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Promote what you have to offer. Get involved in a cause that will benefit from your skills, and you'll end up in a position that allows you to make significant changes. Visiting someone from your past will lead to greater awareness. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Stick close to home and do your best to make positive changes that will please the people you love. Use your intelligence to get your way. Using force will only lead to resistance and ongoing problems. Don't let a past partner cause confusion. ★★★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Listen, but don't make impulsive decisions or moves because of what someone tells you. Dig deep and find out the facts. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain by taking a practical approach to money matters, contracts and settlements. ★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You can make important vocational changes that will help you bring in more money if you follow your heart and identify an organization that could benefit from what you have to offer. ★★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Put your plans into motion. Don't let anyone slow you down or distract you. Money will come to you from an unusual source. Invest in your future.

Speed gives Royals edge on opponents By Erik Boland KEVIN CLARK / THE HERALD

The Sounders’ Marco Pappa celebrates his first-half goal in Seattle’s 3-1 victory over Real Salt Lake on Sunday afternoon at Century Field in Seattle.

the Sounders (15-13-6) jumped ahead in the fifth minute with a Clint Dempsey goal assisted by Obafemi Martins; a Marco Pappa strike in the 10th minute that was assisted by Dempsey, and another Dempsey score in the 20th minute on the rebound of a saved shot from Martins. It was the first time the Sounders had scored two goals in the opening 10 minutes or three in the opening 20. Meanwhile, Dempsey became the third player in club history to score two goals in the first 20 minutes. “It was a game we needed to win,” Dempsey said. “We needed to go out and try to attack the game and try to take the game to them and create chances and not wonder what’s going to happen in the 78th minute, 80th minute trying to get a goal. We went off with the right mentality.” Luis Gill got the visitors’ lone goal in the 77th minute. RSL (1115-8) arrived in Seattle already

If one play summarized the 2015 Kansas City Royals, it was how they scored the run that sent them to the World Series — the winning run in their dramatic 4-3 win over the Blue Jays in ALCS Game 6. With Lorenzo Cain on first base and none out in the bottom of the eighth, Eric Hosmer singled down the right field line. Blue Jays right fielder Jose Bautista charged it and — perhaps seeing Hosmer take an aggressive turn around first — threw to second base rather than toward the cutoff man. Cain, roaring toward second on contact and then around it, was waved home by third-base coach Mike Jirschele and scored easily ahead of Troy Tulowitzki’s throw. “Jirsch always tells us to continue to hustle, continue to come in hard,” Cain said. It was yet another example of the Royals beating a team with their legs, not to mention their heads. Jirschele had noticed that Blue Jays outfielders typically throw right to second on hits, adding: “I’ve seen Bautista do it this whole series.” He was waiting for the right runner on first to try to take advantage of that, and the speedy Cain gave him the opportunity. “He was waiting and waiting and waiting for that play to happen the whole series,” said Hall of Famer George Brett, now the Royals’ vice president of baseball operations. “(On a) hit, they throw to second. When Jirsch saw him throw that ball to second,

Sounders earn MLS playoff berth with 3-1 win over Real Salt Lake, play L.A. Galaxy in Western Conference knockout round Wednesday By Don Ruiz The News Tribune

SEATTLE — On another day, the suspense might have ended early. The Seattle Sounders bolted to a 2-0 lead in the first 10 minutes, and 3-0 in the first 20 on their way to a 3-1 win over Real Salt Lake. However, this was “Decision Day” in Major League Soccer, when all five Western Conference games played out simultaneously. Almost every goal from almost every game changed the Sounders’ projected playoff seeding, their possible opponent, whether they would host or travel. When the final whistle on the final pitch finally blew, Seattle landed in fourth place and paired with fifth-place Los Angeles in a single knockout match 7 p.m. Wednesday at CenturyLink Field. “We’re excited to be in the playoffs,” coach Sigi Schmid said. “As we talked about before the game, our moment has to

COMMENTARY

Seahawks’ Wilson viewed with higher expectations By Dave Boling The News Tribune

T

he money makes it different. Maybe it doesn’t change Russell Wilson. I don’t know if his $87.6 million contract has changed his habit of being the first one in the building studying films every day. I don’t know if the separation remains in the preparation ... or in the attainment. Should his Twitter name go from DangeRuss to ProspeRuss? He’s always seemed a genuinely squared-away guy, so maybe he’s putting in the same amount of work that earned him the big money in the first place. He’s earned the benefit of the doubt for a while, having played as well as he did during his

bargain rookie contract. But one change regarding the nouveau-riche Seahawks quarterback is indisputable: The way we all evaluate him. His success has lifted the expectations for production. But it’s the money that invited the critical scrutiny. What was not to like during the last three seasons? Wilson was the lovable third-round underdog who led the team to two Super Bowls. He was accurate and versatile and surprisingly durable. Besides, he was a Pro Bowl quarterback playing for millions less than his veteran backup. Yes, he had the occasional yip, or tendency to try too hard to make plays. Heck, that was admirable, and he was undeniably the best young quarterback the Seahawks have ever had.

INSIDE: NBA, C2

|

But with the Seahawks struggling at 3-4, Wilson has five interceptions in seven games — just two off his total in all 16 regular-season games last season. He’s been sacked 31 times, just two fewer than his entire rookie season. His protection has been putrid. But sometimes he’s holding onto the football too long and self-sacking, or throwing into coverage. Under heavy pressure, he tries to do it all himself. It worked for a while. And can still work much of the time. But the costs are adding up. And in the process, opponents are learning him. They’re professionals at the business of football, too. Wilson used to get so many easy completions or rushing See WILSON, Page C2

Timberwolves coach Saunders dies of cancer Associated Press MINNEAPOLIS — Flip Saunders, who rose from the backwaters of basketball’s minor leagues to become one of the most powerful men in the NBA as coach, team president and part owner of the Minnesota Timberwolves, died Sunday, the team said. He was 60. Saunders was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in June and doctors called it “treatable and curable.” But he took a leave of absence from the team in September after complications arose during his treatment. He had been hospitalized for more than a month. Sam Mitchell has been named interim head coach. Saunders went 654-592 in 17 NBA seasons with the Timberwolves, Detroit Pistons and Washington Wizards. But his best days came in Minnesota, where he nurtured Kevin Garnett from a teenager who jumped straight from high school to the NBA in 1995 and helped turn the woeful Wolves into a perennial playoff team.

TALLADEGA, Ala. — As Joey Logano made his third straight trip to victory lane, questions swirled about reigning Sprint Cup champion Kevin Harvick’s late-race tactics. Several competitors accused Harvick of intentionally causing a race-ending caution Sunday at Talladega Superspeedway, where Logano completed a sweep of the second round of NASCAR’s playoffs. It came at the expense of Dale Earnhardt Jr., who was eliminated from the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship at his best track for the second consecutive year. Earnhardt led a race-high 61 laps, but had to settle for second in a race he had to win when the Harvick-triggered crash ended the race under caution. NASCAR’s most popular driver did not question his fate. “When the race is over, I can live with the result as long as everyone else is going by the same rules,” Earnhardt said. “I felt like per the rule book, it sorted out and I finished second. I’m OK with that.” NASCAR said this week it would make just one attempt at Talladega to finish the race under green instead of the usual three tries in a nod toward creating a safer racing environment. Drivers were almost unanimous in their support of the change, even when it came into play in a race that cut four drivers from the Chase field. Eliminated Sunday were Earnhardt, Ryan Newman — the runner-up to Harvick last year — and Joe Gibbs Racing drivers Matt Kenseth and Denny Hamlin. JGR was considered a heavy favorite in this Chase after a

Hamilton wins U.S. GP and F1 title Associated Press AUSTIN, Texas — Lewis Hamilton took off his racing helmet and bent low in a moment of quiet reflection after winning a tight race and another Formula One championship. Mercedes teammate Nico Rosberg sat nearby, slumped in a feeling of disgust revealed when Hamilton tossed him his second-place cap and the German flipped it right back, nearly hitting Hamilton in the face. Hamilton ignored the gesture, turned and walked to the victor’s podium to celebrate winning the United States Grand Prix to secure his third Formula One season title. “In the final laps I was thinking about my family and my dad standing in the rain watching me race, as a crazy parent thinking someday he might be a good driver,” Hamilton said. “It’s hard to believe I’m here as a three-time champion.” It was Rosberg’s mistake that helped make this one happen. The German skidded off a short straight out of the 12th turn with eight laps to go at the Circuit of the Americas, opening the gap Hamilton needed. Hamilton’s third U.S. win in four years gave him 21 over two seasons and his 10th this year. The 30-year-old is the first Formula One driver to win 10 or more races in consecutive seasons. A third season championship earns Hamilton a spot among the great drivers in the sport’s history. Three matches his idol Ayrton Senna and ties Jackie Stewart for most championships by a British driver. Only Michael Schumacher, Juan Manuel Fangio, Alain Prost and current Ferrari driver Sebastian Vettel have won more. dominating regular season, but had two of four drivers eliminated Sunday and both were furious with Harvick. Harvick had radioed to his crew under caution that a mechanical issue was preventing him from accelerating. But if he moved out of the way, he risked falling to the back of the field and potentially being knocked out of the Chase. So he instead stayed put, and when his car failed to take off on the restart, he hit Trevor Bayne as Bayne tried to dart around him and it triggered a wreck that brought out the caution to end the race. Earnhardt was unable

to race Logano for the win once the caution was called. “It was a pretty tough ending. (He) knew he was blowing up and told everybody he was going to stay in his lane,” Kenseth said. “It just feels like we kind of lost control of the situation.” Denny Hamlin echoed the sentiments of his Joe Gibbs Racing teammate. He was caught in the accident and had to climb from his flaming car, and said after that Harvick caused the wreck rather than risk losing positions on the track that would knock him out of the Chase. “The 4 could only run about 30 miles an hour, I think he saw

people coming and he knew he was probably going to be 30th, the last car on the lead lap, so he caused the wreck,” said Hamlin. He had a far more scathing take on Twitter after he was eliminated from the Chase. “What a joke we have a car with no motor wreck the field to end the race. Complete crap. Sorry to anyone who spent $ coming to this circus,” Hamlin tweeted. NASCAR reviewed video of the final restart several times with different team owners and crew chiefs following the race, and president Mike Helton said officials did not find anything amiss from Harvick. “There is no evidence right now that there was anything that the 4 car did that was questionable,” Helton said. Bayne felt Harvick’s act was deliberate. “Harvick is a really good driver,” Bayne said. “I think he knows the limits of his car and where it’s at, so that’s why I think it was intentional.” Harvick said his issue was a broken exhaust pipe and “at the end, I was trying to get out of the way.” Logano, who won at Charlotte, Kansas and now Talladega in this round of the Chase, was showered in beer as he made his way to victory lane for the third consecutive week. It wasn’t a celebration from the pro-Earnhardt crowd, but Logano didn’t mind as he steered his Ford toward the cans being hurled in his direction. “I was aiming for them ... it’s kind of a cool explosion when you hit beer cans,” he said. “Kind of a shame they’re throwing their beers full. It was like it was raining out there. But that’s OK. Everyone’s passionate about their driver. That’s what makes our sport great.”

out of postseason contention, and played without No. 1 goalkeeper Nick Rimando due to injury and midfielder Kyle Beckerman due to yellow-card suspension. The result clinched a seventh playoff appearance for the Sounders over their seven seasons in MLS. “It’s huge,” owner Adrian Hanauer said. “I think back to 2002, which was my first year, and I think we’ve missed one playoff since then. I did not want to miss for a second time. It’s great, given the (injuries and losing streak of) summer. It feels good, especially getting a home game.” Seattle’s regular season statistical leaders were Martins, 15 goals; Dempsey, 10 assists; and goalkeeper Stefan Frei with a club record 111 saves. The club’s supporters also set a record, as the match was played before a crowd of 55,435 at CenturyLink Field, pushing Seattle to an unprecedented MLS season attendance average of 44,245. “That’s our fans,” Hanauer said. “It just speaks to the relevance in this market of soccer, of the Sounders.

he just said, ‘Keep going!’ But if Cain’s not running hard, that play doesn’t happen.” The Royals did not hit the ball out of the park like the Blue Jays, who led the majors in scoring and home runs. The Royals went deep 139 times, next to last in the big leagues. But they nonetheless ranked sixth in runs scored with 724. How is not a mystery. Because of their speed, the Royals put a premium on putting the ball in play. They struck out the least of any team in baseball (973 times).

really feel like we’re getting out feet under us and we’re going to be able to do great things next year as well.” Tickets for the knockout match are on sale at SoundersFC.com. The game will be shown locally on JOEtv and heard on 97.3 FM.

the second half of 2013. They’ve gotten wise to it, too. On pass plays, blitzers and rushers used to get greedy, and crash hard off the edges, which opened the way for Wilson to duck and spin out into the open flat. Now, defenders get upfield, fence in the pocket, and then collapse in on Wilson, eliminating his escape routes. As the defenses learned and adapted to Wilson, Wilson and those who shape the scheme have to learn and adapt to them. It’s common. Most quarterbacks, even those at the Pro

Bowl level, go through career plateaus. Wilson has been a gem, as a quarterback and leader. And he’s not halfway through his fourth season yet. The really good ones figure out ways to stay ahead of defenses, to evolve and mature and expand their repertoires. Specifically, Wilson will flourish when he senses the balance between standing and delivering with spinning out and taking flight. It has to be hard when he’s not sure from play to play which bad guy will be trying to crush his spleen. He will learn that the hits are cumulative, each extracting a

toll and subtracting time and effectiveness off a career. If Wilson plateaus and continues at this level, he’ll still probably be the best long-term quarterback the Seahawks have ever had. But if he can polish off a few rough spots, maybe we’ll look back at this fourth season as the one where he learned how to get to the next level. If not, we might see this as the point where his trajectory flattened out, and he will be known as a very, very good and admirable quarterback. One who became extremely wealthy in the process.

They also were second in the AL with 104 stolen bases. “We don’t rely on the home run as much,” Cain said. “We try to do it all. We can hit home runs but we don’t rely on them. We know we can win in other ways. A very solid team top to bottom.” Blue Jays pitchers talked about how difficult it was to navigate the Royals’ lineup 1 through 9. They lacked home run threats like Jose Bautista and Edwin Encarnacion, but there were no breathers, either. “They try to string hits together, put the pressure on the defense with their team speed, steal bases, produce runs with outs, and that’s what they’ve

done really well,” said Blue Jays left-hander David Price, who had a 5.40 ERA in two starts in the series. “That’s how they won the Central. That’s how they got to the World Series last year.” Royals general manager Dayton Moore used a word that gets a lot of play in describing his club’s lineup. “Our guys just have a relentless attitude,” he said. “A relentless commitment to having good at-bats, a relentless commitment of executing the fundamentals, a relentless commitment of continuing to make pitches and prepare and just overcome the things that happen in a baseball game that perhaps could go against you.

They just keep playing.” And, in the end, the Royals outhomered the Blue Jays 7-6 in the series. “If you took Kansas City and put them in our ballpark, you could add a share of home runs to all those guys,” Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said before Game 6. “They play at a park that is going to give you a few more doubles, maybe a couple of triples, but it’s going to take away some home runs. They have legitimate power over there. Sometimes I think they approach it differently, because they’re looking to put that ball in play and use their speed. It’s a good lineup.”

Gurley leads Rams to win over Browns By R.B. Fallstrom Associated Press

The Giants’ Dwayne Harris (17) returns a kickoff 100 yards for a touchdown in the fourth quarter to give New York a 27-20 lead over the Dallas Cowboys. The Giants won 27-20.

Mistakes cost Cowboys Giants intercept three passes, return kickoff for TD as New York hands Dallas its 4th straight loss By Tom Canavan Associated Press

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — While everyone may want to focus on the Dallas Cowboys not having the injured Tony Romo and Dez Bryant, they have lost four in a row because of their own mistakes. There’s plenty of fault to go around, and it was obvious Sunday in a 27-20 loss to the New York Giants. • Matt Cassel threw three interceptions in his first start for Dallas, including a pick-six by Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie. • The Cowboys’ special teams allowed former teammate Dwayne Harris to score on a 100-yard kickoff return with 7:01 to play, after Cassel had tied the game 13 seconds earlier with a touchdown pass to Devin Street. • Dallas (2-4) also lost four points after a penalty nullified Darren McFadden’s touchdown and was forced to settle for a field goal. • Finally, any chance Dallas had to tie the game ended when Cole Beasley muffed a punt with 1:26 to play and the Giants (4-3) recovered. “This is a tight group and we’re not going to break. We give them credit. They made enough plays to win the game but we’re going to keep battling and we’ll learn from it,” Cowboys tight end Jason

Witten said. “We’re still in the hunt. We’re going to get it turned around and get it fixed.” There is a chance that Bryant will come back next week from the foot injury he sustained in the season opener against New York. Romo won’t be back from his broken collarbone until mid-November. “We haven’t made a play when it was there all year,” Dallas linebacker Sean Lee said. “We’ve had it in our hands and we’ve dropped them. You can’t have big plays. For us, we have to have big plays, we have to finish plays and finish games. Last year, we did that well, but this year we haven’t done that as consistently.” The win allowed New York to

snap a five-game slide against Dallas and it gave coach Tom Coughlin his 100th regular-season triumph with the Giants. Rodgers-Cromartie had two interceptions, returning one 58 yards for a touchdown. Brandon Meriweather also had a pick, while Myles White grabbed Beasley’s muff to put it away. Harris spent four seasons in Dallas without running back a kickoff for a score. But he tied a Giants record set in 1994 by romping untouched to the end zone. McFadden rushed for 152 yards and a touchdown, getting 29 carries after starting running back Joseph Randle left with a strained back.

ST. LOUIS — Todd Gurley heard the fans chanting his name. The rookie is commanding that kind of attention. Gurley rushed for 128 yards and his first two NFL touchdowns, helping the St. Louis Rams put away the Cleveland Browns 24-6 on Sunday. “It’s not all me,” he said. “We’ve just got to keep improving and executing.” During the week, coach Jeff Fisher said Gurley wasn’t yet 100 percent. He looked pretty dominant against the Browns, hurdling tacklers on at least two occasions and churning for extra yards up the middle. “He’s a playmaker,” teammate Kenny Britt said. “He can change the game and he’s going to really help us out.” Gurley scored on runs of 1 and 16 yards. He fell short of joining Hall of Famers Eric Dickerson and Marshall Faulk as the lone Rams players to gain 140 or more yards for three straight games. Coming off its bye, St. Louis (3-3) had four sacks and recovered four fumbles. The Rams scored 10 points off miscues on Cleveland’s first two series, a 17-yard fumble recovery by Rodney McLeod and a field goal after the first of William Hayes’ two sacks and strips of Josh McCown on the day. Johnny Manziel got mopup duty for the Browns after McCown left for the locker room favoring his right shoulder with about four minutes to play in the game. McCown said he was hurt on the second sack/fumble when he was hit on the elbow. “I felt something in the back of my shoulder,” McCown said. “Again, I’m not going to comment anymore on that.” Manziel fielded just as many questions about an ongoing NFL investigation as he did the possibility of starting next week at home against Arizona. The league is looking into whether he violated its personal conduct policy. Manziel was questioned on Oct. 12 by police in Avon, Ohio, after the 2012 Heisman Trophy winner and girlfriend Colleen Crowley argued while he drove on a highway. Crowley told police that Manziel hit her several times. Manziel denied striking Crowley, was not arrested and the couple was allowed to leave together. He said he hasn’t talked to an NFL official. “When they do come, if they do come, if anything like that happens, I’ll fully cooperate with them and give them exactly what happened that day from my side of the story,” he said.

Associated Press CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Cam Newton took another step toward rewriting the NFL record book, and the Carolina Panthers defeated the Philadelphia Eagles 27-16 to improve to 6-0 for the first time in franchise history. Newton threw for a touchdown and ran for another score, marking the fourth time this season he has accomplished that feat in a game and 28th time in his career — three behind Hall of Famer Steve Young for the league record. Jonathan Stewart ran for 119 yards and Mike Tolbert scored two touchdowns for Carolina, which has won a franchise-record 10 straight regular-season games dating to last season. The Eagles (3-4) were able to convert three interceptions by Newton into just six points. The Panthers held Sam Bradford to 205 yards passing and sacked him five times.
