‘Aggressive panhandling’ banned Critics say Everett’s controversial new ordinance is punishment that does nothing to address the root issue. By Chris Winters Herald Writer

EVERETT — The City Council passed a controversial ordinance against panhandling Wednesday

that has drawn the attention of activists on behalf of neighborhoods and the homeless. The vote was 4-2, and came before a packed crowd that included vociferous testimony

from the public. The ordinance amends current city code to classify “aggressive panhandling” as a misdemeanor punishable by jail or a fine. That’s the clause that’s drawn the most criticism from residents and activists. Other sections of the ordinance will instruct the police to work with

property owners so they can know their rights as far as prohibiting begging on their property, and put into place a public outreach campaign to discourage people from giving money to panhandlers and instead encourage donations to specified agencies that provide social services for the homeless. Jason Mohn, pastor at First

Covenant Church of Everett, commented that by focusing on enforcement, the council wasn’t looking “upstream” to find and address the root of the problem of homelessness. “Where are all these people with needs coming from?” Mohn said. See BAN, Page A8

chipping paint but smooth to the touch along the lines of stark blue letters. Anthony’s name is here, too: “RIP Anthony I Love You.” Some large parts of the barn remain in a farmer’s field. The farmer wasn’t always keen on having his barn vandalized by high-schoolers but over time it became tradition. When space ran out, teens painted over past designs. In recent years, the barn had been decorated with the names of a mother lost to cancer, teens killed in car accidents and a 7-year-old accidently shot by her younger brother, among others.

MUKILTEO — A man could face criminal charges after he allegedly aimed a high-powered laser into the eyes of a ferry captain and a chief mate last week. One of the men suffered a damaged retina and a third-degree burn to the eyelid, said Sgt. Christina Martin with the Washington State Patrol. Investigators are talking with prosecutors to determine what charges might be appropriate and in which county they will be filed, she said. The man, described as being in his mid-20s, has not been arrested. The U.S. Coast Guard also is looking into the case. “This is the first time we’ve dealt with something like this with the ferry system,” Martin said. The injured crewmen did not have to go to the hospital, but they will need medical followup, Martin said. The men were in separate wheelhouses when they were apparently targeted. The incident happened just after 8:30 p.m. Oct. 22 on the regular run between Mukilteo and Clinton. The suspect was on the car deck of the Kitsap, which was headed to Mukilteo, Martin said. They were on the Tokitae, which was passing the other ferry on its way to Clinton.

STANWOOD — Kristy Comstock has the barn doors on display in her backyard. They say “RIP Anthony Comstock” and were painted in memory of her 16-year-old son, who died in a car accident on Pioneer Highway in July 2013. Friends and classmates painted the doors when they still were attached to an old barn along Marine Drive. For decades, local teens painted the barn with messages, class colors and, when they lost someone, names and notes of love and grief. Anthony’s name was one of the last painted on the barn

Megan Dascher Watkins talks about the first name she painted on an old barn, that of Ellen Floyd, a girl she did not know. She saved parts of the barn, used to memorialize local deaths, and keeps them behind a building at her home in Stanwood. The barn outside of Stanwood, which served as an impromptu memorial for years, was disassembled Nov. 12, 2013. When the barn came down she decided to preserve the legacy of years of names.

BOSTON — A judge granted a protective order against a warlock Wednesday, spelling relief for the Salem witch who accused him of harassment. The two squared off in court before a Salem District Court judge, who

making incessant phone calls at night and humiliating her on Facebook, The Boston Globe reported. Day’s lawyer countered that the dispute stems from a onetime business partnership that fell apart years ago. Before 2012, Day let Sforza perform psychic

readings rent-free at one of his occult shops in Salem, he told The Associated Press in an interview after the hearing. Their relationship fell apart when Sforza revealed plans to start her own witchcraft shop nearby, Day said. The two are still business rivals. “This is a business

dispute gone wrong. That’s all it was,” Day said. “They don’t want me to make snide remarks on Facebook; I won’t make snide remarks on Facebook.” During the hearing, Sforza reportedly told the judge that she can see into her own future, saying, “That’s why I’m here

today.” Sforza, 75, uses the business name Lori Bruno and says she is a psychic witch who descends from a line of Italian witches. She also leads a pagan church in Salem. Day, 45, who now lives in Louisiana, owns occult shops in Salem and New Orleans.

More young people have died since the barn was taken down, including three teens who committed suicide. “We still need the barn,” Watkins said. “I loved that the kids had a safe, artistic place to grieve.” She first felt drawn to the barn after 17-year-old Ellen Floyd died in a car accident in 2010. She didn’t know Ellen but decided to help paint. It seemed that countless layers of paint were holding up the aging barn, she said. Kids were climbing inside and on the roof, a concern for parents and the owner. When a “For Sale” sign went up, Watkins realized the barn needed to come down but she didn’t want it permanently destroyed. Though painted by kids, it had become important for parents, too. It was the cornerstone of difficult talks Watkins had with her sons about suicide and reckless driving. “You say, ‘I never want to see your name on that barn,’ ” she said. Comstock didn’t realize how important the barn was until her son’s friends gathered to paint. “You just want to know your child’s life mattered,”

months after his death. Watkins had purchased the barn that morning. It was the day Anthony would have turned 17. Moments like that make Comstock believe the barn was meant to have a second life. “But I honestly think I bit off more than I can chew,” Watkins said. “It’s been a lot more difficult to get up than I thought it would be.” She wanted to build something near the downtown park-and-ride, within sight of where the barn once stood. Then she learned it was owned by the state, not the city. Now she wonders if the

barn could find a home at Ovenell Park, a newly purchased, undeveloped park at the west edge of Stanwood, but she needs to talk more with city leaders and staff. Whether Ovenell Park would work depends on development restrictions for the property, Mayor Leonard Kelley said. A planning committee is being put together now and they’ll look deeper into the options. “Finding a home for the barn, I think, would be a good thing,” Kelley said. “I would like to see it happen if we can find the right location and get buy-in from the City Council.” When the barn came down in 2013, the city heard from a lot of people who were upset, he said. It also captured the interest of two Warm Beach filmmakers, Kyle Porter and mother Anna Porter. Since the demolition, they’ve been working on a documentary called Specializing in Death Row Dogs!

“In Their Memory: The Stanwood Memorial Barn.” They’ve talked to 24 people, including parents, the sheriff and a grief counselor. They reviewed newspaper archives, gathered photos and “nearly broke Google,” Kyle Porter said. It seems the first name was painted on the barn in 1968, though they haven’t been able to confirm who it was. “The connections to this barn are just nuts,” Porter said. “It’s been a joy to work on, and it’s also kind of been heartbreaking.” If the barn pieces are reassembled before he finishes the documentary, he’ll film it, he said. If not, he plans a black screen with white text explaining where the story leaves off. The barn was a mix of tradition and emotion, he said, a place where expression never needed explanation. “Kids need blank canvases,” Porter said. “Blank canvases make us feel like things are still possible.” No matter how many layers of paint there were, the barn was a canvas for young people wrestling with grief. Comstock and Watkins want it to be that again. Once they find a home for it, they said, the Stanwood Memorial Barn will be back. Kari Bray: 425-339-3439; kbray@heraldnet.com.

Police describe rolling gun battle to jury Hans Hansen, who is on trial for 11 felonies, targeted police in Granite Falls and Lake Stevens before heading to Marysville, according to officers’ testimony. By Scott North Herald Writer

EVERETT — A jury was taken moment-by-moment Wednesday through the chaos and fear that a Granite Falls man brought to Marysville last fall after he drove into town and began shooting at police.

Hans Hansen, 44, is charged with 11 felonies, including two counts of attempted first-degree murder. Hansen doesn’t deny responsibility for the Oct. 15, 2014, gunfire, but his attorneys maintain he didn’t intend to cause anyone’s death that night except for his own, in an attempt at

“suicide by cop.” The bullets began flying after Marysville officers stopped a pickup truck that matched the description of one connected to gunfire minutes earlier outside police stations in Granite Falls and Lake Stevens. Marysville officer Bronwyn Kieland told a Snohomish County Superior Court jury about tucking her patrol car in near another officer’s vehicle as the pickup slowed to a stop. Gunfire erupted as she began

to exit her car. “It was continuous,” she said. “... The loudest gunshots sounded like cannons going off.” As she darted toward cover, bullets struck sparks on the road near her feet. “I could feel things in the air, moving past me,” she said. Kieland said her thoughts turned to her sons. She didn’t have a shot. The pickup pulled away. She could hear the hissing of air bleeding from police car tires

shredded by bullets. Then Marysville police Sgt. James Maples was on the radio reporting that he’d been shot. He was a short distance away along the route the pickup took when it left. Kieland said she and other officers ran to his aid and tried to stabilize his wounds. Meanwhile, other officers were being pulled into what had became a rolling gun battle See HANSEN, Page A4

Or, as the 61 men and women vying for seats on the Charter Review Commission hope, the political order in the state’s third most populous county could be reset for years to come. The commission is empowered to draft changes to the county’s Home Rule Charter, which is effectively its constitution. That means it can consider redesigning the design and operation of county government in ways no one else can — not the County Council, the county executive or even state lawmakers. They could — and just might — suggest getting rid of offices, establishing new ones, ending term limits, making the county executive’s office nonpartisan and expanding the size of the County Council. Any agreed-upon revisions would be put before voters in November 2016 for ratification or rejection. Such opportunity only comes around once a decade, making this a critically

Paul ‘the Barber’ Chachulski dies at 65 By Chris Winters Herald Writer

EVERETT — Paul Barber, the barber of North Broadway who didn’t raise his prices for 15 years, died Oct. 22 from injuries he sustained in a fall. He was 65. A Michigan native, he moved to Washington from San Diego in the mid-1970s. He had been bound for Alaska to work on the trans-Alaska pipeline. He stopped for gas and a coffee, he told The Herald last year, saying “the gas was bad and the coffee was good.” So instead of continuing north, he settled in Everett and eventually started cutting hair, opening his first shop on Broadway in 1985. He started calling himself Paul Barber (his last name was

recent years, and construction of the new University Center building in the parking lot outside his shop kept traffic away. In May 2014, the Chachulskis’ home at 2010 23rd St. burned down. They discovered after the fact that they were underinsured, and began a nine-month ordeal to collect on the policy and pay

ELECTION 2015 | Edmonds City Council

Traffic, development are big issues for growing city Rutledge said he wants to maintain the city’s current building height limits, increase funding for public safety and encourage business development along Highway 99. Rutledge said he supports the Edmonds Crossing project, a proposal to move the ferry terminal to the south end of the city, that was scuttled by the recession. Rutledge said he thought Edmonds would not be affected if Fire District 1 takes over fire services in neighboring Lynnwood. Fire District 1 provides Edmonds’ fire services.

Herald Writer

EDMONDS — Edmonds voters had better study up. There are six candidates running for three contested City Council races. Local voters are quizzing candidates about issues such as how to solve the city’s downtown traffic jam caused by train and ferry traffic, development and growth issues. In the Position 2 race, two candidates are running to fill the unexpired term of former City Council member Strom Peterson, who was elected to the Legislature last year. Mike Nelson was appointed by the council in March to temporarily fill the seat, selected from a group of 10 applicants. He is a member of the city’s advisory committee working on a proposed solution to the traffic problems caused by the convergence of ferry and train traffic near the city’s waterfront area. It’s a topic that Nelson said voters have brought up frequently as he campaigns. Voters also are concerned about the number of coal and oil trains coming through the city, he said. Both business owners and residents have talked about the need for more downtown parking, he said. That’s one byproduct of the increase in retail sales, he said. In the 12-month period ending in August, sales tax revenue totaled $4.3 million, an increase of $558,697 over the previous year. Nelson is being challenged by Al Rutledge, a frequent candidate for public office who has lived in the city since 1986.

Two political newcomers, Alicia Crank and Dave Teitzel, are vying for the Position 5 seat, which opened when council member Joan Bloom decided not to seek re-election. Crank said her interest in running for the council began shortly after her move to Edmonds in July 2014. She previously lived in California and led the Leadership Mountain View program, part of the local Chamber of Commerce. Crank said she’s interested in the issues of density and housing affordability, both for renters and homeowners. “We know the area will grow in the next 10 to 15 years,” she said. “I want to make sure Edmonds makes some really good decisions on where that density belongs,” such as along Highway 99 and Edmonds Way, she said. Crank said she would like to see more opportunities for the council to meet

with the public by adding more neighborhood meetings. Cities that have made such a change find that it helps residents feel more connected to their council member, she said. Teitzel said he would like to see the city diversify its economic base, which now is disproportionately based on car sales. That would allow the city to avoid cuts to city services during economic downturns, he said. Teitzel said he would like to see hotels that could accommodate small conventions and meeting space come to the city. Upgrades to the city’s fiber optic network could encourage economic

Lake Stevens. He and others decided it was prudent to park the department’s most decrepit patrol car out front, offering it as a target should the gunman head their way. Shove parked his patrol car nearby to keep watch. Then he heard officers radio that they were about to stop the pickup. He threw his car into gear, heading that direction. It was a dangerous stop and “I wanted to get there and help,” he said. He heard gunfire and

The man repeatedly said the wound didn’t matter, that he was dead anyway, jurors were told. Paramedics rushed in to render aid. Shove said his thoughts then turned to his fellow officers. He asked emergency dispatchers to conduct a roll call. “I had to know everybody was OK,” he said. “I need to know that and they needed to know that.” Maples was the only person injured. While waiting for paramedics, officers controlled his bleeding by painfully binding his leg with a tourniquet. Kieland was directed to stay with the wounded officer and she accompanied him on the ambulance ride to the hospital. “He was holding my hand. He was upset. He kept saying, ‘Tell my wife I love her,’ ” she said.

Smith and other officers joined the chase, each officer weaving across the roadway in “sort of a slalom” trying to make themselves less of a target. “My recurrent thought was, ‘Stay in this. Don’t wreck. Don’t get shot. Stay in this and get this guy,’ ” Shove testified. Other officers took up positions to the west. When the pickup truck approached, one fired into the cab. The truck hopped onto the curb and stopped. The officers who testified Wednesday all recounted how Hansen tossed weapons from the truck and surrendered. A bullet had struck the defendant in the head, carving a deep furrow that was spurting blood.

He wanted to keep passersby out of the gunman’s path. He also wanted to be ready to stop the pickup if he had the chance. The truck sped into the intersection, heading west on Grove. Shove fell in behind trying make the stop. The pickup’s driver kept rolling west while simultaneously pointing a rifle out of the cab and firing backward, Shove testified.

This race has incumbent Lora Petso being challenged by Neil Tibbott. Petso, who has served nine years on the council, said she supports regulating building heights. “My position is that we can accommodate growth within our current building limits,” she said. “We don’t need to go up and risk blocking views,” she said. “There’s always a push to have taller buildings in Edmonds.” Petso said she opposes increasing car tab fees for a Transportation Benefit District, which raises money for local transportation projects.

development, he said. The network is underutilized and there isn’t sufficient backup for unexpected service disruptions, he said. Upgrades would cost roughly a half million dollars, he said. More than 20 percent of Edmonds residents have ethnic backgrounds other than Caucasian, Teitzel said. And in parts of the city, people feel geographically disconnected. If elected, Teitzel said he would invite other council members to meet with these groups “so we can hear their concerns directly from them.”

She said she would like to see increases in some services, such as the community paramedic program, providing assistance to people in their homes before there’s an emergency that requires a call to 911. Petso said she also would like to restore some of the police department cuts made during the recession, but the chief should decide how the additions should be used. Tibbott was one of the 10 people who applied for the opening on the City ouncil earlier this year. If elected, he said he hopes to offer a different kind of leadership than Petso. Tibbott, who serves on the city’s planning board, that he would attempt to bring people together with creative solutions. The city developed its strategic plan for city priorities with input from 2,500 residents, he said. Tibbott said one of his priorities is to see the redevelopment of the city’s senior center. A campaign is now underway to pay for building a new $10 million building. Its uses will be expanded to be both a community center and a senior center, Tibbott said. “It’s important for people to know I’ve lived in Edmonds for more than 15 years,” he said. His wife is a teacher in the Edmonds School District. “We’re very invested in the city and look forward to doing some good things in the future,” Tibbott said. Mayor Dave Earling is running opposed for another term and as are City Council members Diane Buckshnis and Thomas Mesaros.

important decision for voters with some pretty high stakes for the Democratic and Republican parties. Because commission recommendations carry the potential for altering the balance of political power, party leaders set about months ago asking, encouraging and outright recruiting people to run for the purportedly

nonpartisan 15-member commission. The result is a ballot littered with notable names from each party’s ranks, including current and former elected officials, longtime civic activists and perennial candidates searching for their first electoral victory. For example, you’ve got Democrats like state Sen. Marko Liias and Mukilteo Mayor Jennifer Gregerson

running. And there are Republicans like John Koster, a former county councilman now weighing a 2016 run for the state House, and Jeff Sax, another former council member. Three people served on the last commission — Wendy Valentine, Kristin Kelly and Mike Cooper, a former county councilman and state lawmaker who served as chairman. Whoever is elected can expect debate on a handful of hot-button issues beginning with the matter of

partisan labels for elected offices. Back in the 1990s, voters agreed to erase them for the county sheriff, auditor, assessor, treasurer and clerk. Now, several hopefuls aligned with the GOP want to do the same for the offices of County Council and county executive. They calculate it will bring a long-term boost for the Republican Party which this year has no candidate in the run-off for the executive’s job or either of the two open council seats

on the ballot. Not surprisingly, Democratic leaders oppose such a change and are counting on putting Democrats in enough commission seats to repel such a proposal. Another idea — enlarging the County Council to seven members from the current five — seems certain to be on the agenda. Supporters see it as a way to give greater voice to rural areas and reduce the level of conflict between the council and executive. In addition, some candidates want to consider

an end to term limits for elected officials, allow the County Council to overturn a county executive’s veto with a simple majority vote and establish the job of county ombudsman in the charter. Those are the more ambitious ideas floating around now. Whether any get accomplished next year may hinge on the decisions of voters next week.

the Sultan School District, a broken-down car and a broken leg all at once. “I decided at that point that even if he was kind of a jerk he was going to be my friend for the rest of his life, or my life, whichever came first,” she said. They began a friendship that survived long periods of separation while Chachulski took care of family in Michigan or worked in Alaska. Romance came slowly and they married in 2009. A year later, Chachulski retired and moved back to Washington and into Barber’s 1910 bungalow, where they remained until

the fire. Barber was a musician, able to play French horn, trumpet, trombone, saxophone and flute. He could pick his way around a keyboard, guitar, harmonica or a nose harp, one of his favorite instruments, Chachulski said. He was always generous with his time or money. “I was frequently ticked with him for giving away all his money to people who came to the barbershop in need,” Chachulski said. “He said he’d been homeless twice in his life and couldn’t say no,” she said.

Insurgents vs mainstream Debate highlights Republicans’ two-track nominating fight By Julie Pace and Thomas Beaumont Associated Press

BOULDER, Colo. — Marco Rubio bid forcefully for control of the Republican Party’s establishment wing in Wednesday night’s third GOP debate, deflecting jabs from Jeb Bush, who desperately sought to right his floundering campaign. Insurgent outsiders Donald Trump and Ben Carson defended the seriousness of their White House efforts, underscoring the two-track fight for the party’s presidential nomination. But in an economic policy focused debate, both at times faded to the background during the two-hour contest. Rubio tangled early with Bush, his friend and fellow Floridian, who entered the debate in need of a strong performance to soothe his supporters’ anxiety. Bush targeted Rubio for his spotty voting record on Capitol Hill, signaling that he sees the Florida senator as the candidate most likely to block his political path. “Marco, when you signed up for this, this was a 6-year term and you should be showing up for work,” said Bush, who was forced to slash campaign spending in response to slower fundraising. “You can campaign, or just resign and let someone else take the job.” Rubio sharply dismissed Bush’s critique as a political ploy by a struggling candidate. “The only reason you’re doing it is that we’re running for the same position and someone has convinced you that attacking me will help you,” he said.

Crowded contest Three months before primary voting begins, the Republican contest remains crowded and unwieldly. Yet the contours of the race have been clarified, with outsiders capitalizing on voter frustration with Washington and candidates with political experience hoping the race ultimately turns their way. Trump, the brash real estate mogul, has dominated the Republican race for months, but was a less of a factor Wednesday night than in the previous two debates. He largely refrained from personal attacks on his rivals, which has been a signature of his campaign, even taking a light touch with Carson, who has overtaken him in recent Iowa polls. Carson, the soft-spoken retired neurosurgeon who came into the debate with a burst of momentum, stuck to his low-key style. He sought to explain his vague tax policy, which he has compared to tithing, in which families donate the same portion of their income to their church regardless of how much they make. And he insisted he had no involvement with supplement maker Mannatech, although he acknowledged

WASHINGTON — House Republicans embraced a new leader Wednesday and swiftly consented to a major budgetand-debt deal to avert a federal financial crisis, highlights of a day of dramatic fresh starts at the Capitol after years of division and disarray. Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan, the 2012 GOP vice presidential candidate and a telegenic spokesman for conservative priorities, was nominated by his colleagues in a secret-ballot election to serve as speaker of

Dennis Hastert enters guilty plea CHICAGO — Dennis Hastert, 73, pleaded guilty Wednesday to evading banking laws in a hush-money scheme, averting a potentially lurid trial that could have dredged up sexual allegations by agreeing to a deal with prosecutors that recommended he serve no more than six months in prison. The Illinois Republican directly acknowledged for the first time that he sought to pay someone $3.5 million to hide misconduct by Hastert against that person dating back several decades, to around the time the longtime GOP leader was a high school wrestling coach. During his eight years as speaker, Hastert was second in the line of succession to the presidency.

that his talented protege could eclipse him. Rubio is among the Republican field’s most talented politicians, and at age 44 he could represent the future in a way the son and brother of presidents cannot. Bush has cast himself as a policy wonk and delivered measured answers to questions on tax policy and the nation’s budget. But other than his sharp critique of Rubio, Bush had few of the standout moments his supporters were seeking. ASSOCIATED PRESS

using its product and giving paid speeches for the company, which has faced a legal challenge over health claims for its products. Carson said it was absurd to allege he’s connected to the company. “If someone put me on their home page, they did it without permission,” he said. Trump bristled when asked by a debate moderator if his policy proposals, including building a wall along the U.S.Mexico border and deporting everyone who is in the U.S. illegally, amounted to a “comic book” campaign. And he defended his record in the private sector despite having to declare bankruptcy, casting it as a business technique. “I’ve used that to my advantage as a businessman,” Trump said. “I used the laws of the country to my benefit.” Texas Sen. Ted Cruz has been circling Trump for months, seeking to position himself as the heir to the businessman’s supporters if he fades. While Cruz holds office in the U.S. Senate, he’s cast himself as anti-establishment and a thorn in the side of GOP leaders. Cruz garnered enthusiastic applause when he criticized debate moderators for trying to stir up fights among the candidates, casting it as a sign

of media bias against Republicans — a popular line with GOP voters. The jumbled GOP field is a stark contrast to the Democratic contest, where Hillary Clinton is strengthening her front-runner status over Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders. Campaigning in New Hampshire ahead of the GOP debate, Clinton said the Republican contests are like a “reality TV show but the cast of characters are out of touch with actual reality.” Wednesday’s debate in Colorado, an important general election state, focused on economic policy, including taxes and job growth. Rubio turned questions about his personal financial struggles, including recently liquidating his retirement account, into an opportunity to tout his compelling personal story. The son of Cuban immigrants, Rubio said he didn’t inherit money from his family and knows what it’s like to struggle to pay loans and afford to raise a family. “I know what it’s like to owe that money,” Rubio said. “I’m not worried about my finances. I’m worried about the finances of everyday Americans.” The feud between Bush and Rubio has been simmering for months, driven by the former Florida governor’s concern

Mainstream voters Ohio Gov. John Kasich and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie have each sought to break through with more mainstream voters. Kasich in particular was aggressive from the start in bemoaning the unexpected strength of unorthodox candidates. “We are on the verge of perhaps picking someone who cannot do this job,” Kasich said. Christie, whose campaign has so far failed to meet expectations, cast himself as best qualified to defeat Clinton in the general election. “You put me on the stage with her next September and she won’t get within 10 miles of the White House,” he said. Also on stage were former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul and former technology executive Carly Fiorina, the star of the second GOP debate. Fiorina, the former Hewlett Packard CEO, has struggled to capitalize on that strong performance and has faded toward the back of the pack. The four lowest-polling candidates participated in an earlier undercard event: South Carolina Sen. Lindsay Graham, former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal and former New York Gov. George Pataki. None has gotten close to breaking into the upper tier of candidates.

GOP taps new speaker, OKs budget Associated Press

ACROSS THE U.S.

the House, second in line to the presidency. The full House will confirm that choice Thursday. “This begins a new day in the House of Representatives,” Ryan, 45, said after the vote. “We are turning the page.” Immediately after choosing Ryan to chart a new course for their fractured party, Republicans trooped onto the House floor to cast votes on a huge two-year budget deal struck in recent days between President Barack Obama and congressional leaders of both parties. The agreement, approved 266-167, would raise the

government’s borrowing limit through March 2017, averting an unprecedented default just days away. It would also set the budget of the federal government for the next two years, lifting onerous spending caps and steering away from the brinkmanship and shutdown threats that have haunted Congress for years. Most of the “no” votes were from Republicans, but 79 GOP lawmakers voted for approval. “A solid piece of legislation,” declared outgoing Speaker John Boehner of Ohio, who played a key role in engineering

the accord after announcing his resignation last month after a quarter-century in Congress and nearly five years in the speaker’s chair. Boehner was beset by intractable divisions between the party’s pragmatists and purists, but those will now be Ryan’s to resolve. Ryan sounded an optimistic note. “We are not going to have a House that looks like it looked the last two years,” he said. “We are going to move forward, we are going to unify. Our party has lost its vision, and we are going to replace it with a vision.”

Thousands of federal inmates serving sentences for drug crimes are set for early release this weekend under a costcutting measure intended to reduce the nation’s prison population. The Justice Department said Wednesday that more than 4,300 inmates are set to go free on or around Nov. 1, the first of what will likely be tens of thousands benefiting from changes approved last year by the U.S. Sentencing Commission. More than 1,700 inmates who are not U.S. citizens will be turned over to immigration officials for potential deportation.

Clinton’s superdelegates Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has extended her already sizable superdelegate lead by several dozen since August, and is deploying former President Bill Clinton to bring more of the powerful endorsers on board. Based on a memo from her campaign manager and delegate figures provided by the Democratic National Committee, Bloomberg Politics estimates Hillary Clinton has well over 500 superdelegate commitments, putting her even closer to securing the minimum number needed to win the party’s nomination before ordinary voters cast a ballot in a caucus or primary.

Alabama: Medicaid funds A federal judge Wednesday ordered the state to restore Medicaid funding to Planned Parenthood, money the state tried to cut off in the wake of videos shot by abortion opponents. A U.S. District judge issued an order that temporarily bars Alabama from cutting off Medicaid contracts with the group’s clinics in Alabama. Planned Parenthood Southeast and a Medicaid recipient filed suit in August, days after Gov. Robert Bentley announced he was ending the Medicaid agreements with the two clinics.

S. Carolina: Deputy fired A deputy who flipped a disruptive student out of her desk and tossed her across her math class floor was fired Wednesday. The sheriff called his actions “unacceptable,” and said videos recorded by her classmates show the girl posed no danger to anyone. “What he should not have done is throw the student,” Richland County Sheriff Leon Lott said. “Police officers make mistakes, too. They’re human and they need to be held accountable, and that’s what we’ve done with Deputy Ben Fields.”

Michigan: UAW contract United Auto Workers leaders have approved a proposed contract with General Motors Co. Workers at GM’s 63 U.S. facilities must now vote on the agreement for it to take effect. The fouryear contract covers 52,600 GM factory workers. Like a previous agreement reached with Fiat Chrysler workers, GM’s agreement would eliminate a twotier wage system over eight years. GM currently pays recent hires less than longtime workers. The agreement would give longtime workers their first raises in nearly a decade.

Pennsylvania: Blimp chase After a wild four-hour jaunt above parts of two states, a runaway military surveillance blimp crash-landed Wednesday, ending a bizarre incident that raised concerns — and many smiles — across the Northeast. Two F-16 fighter jets were scrambled from New Jersey to help monitor the giant blimp after it tore loose from a ground mooring at an Army base in Maryland and took to the windy skies, according to the Pentagon. PPL Electric Utilities said 20,000 people lost power after the airship’s tether, a 6,700-foot-long cable that dangled below it, struck power lines as it floated by. From Herald news services

Cobalt moves to Lake Stevens Most of the firm’s work is for aerospace manufacturers. By Jim Davis The Herald Business Journal Editor

LAKE STEVENS — Cobalt Enterprises is buying a 25,000-square-foot building in Lake Stevens and moving most of its operations from Granite Falls to the new site. The machine shop will also expand, increasing its workforce from 98 employees to 120, said Paul Clark, Cobalt’s vice president and one of its owners. Cobalt has seen heavy growth for years. The company has experienced on average a 34-percent increase in sales for 11 straight

years and expects to see that number go up to 44 percent this year. Most of the work is for aerospace manufacturers. “We’ll tackle heart-attack-type jobs,” Clark said. “The company has built its reputation on those types of jobs.” The company expects to spend $3 million with the purchase of the building at 3316 Old Hartford Road, Lake Stevens, along with renovations and moving costs. The company expects to move its assembly and paint departments by the end of this year and move the machining department by next year. In all, 110 workers will be located at the Lake Stevens site. “We are very excited for a variety of reasons,” said Jeanie Ashe,

Lake Stevens’ development c o o r d i n a t o r. “This is bringing to our community ultimately 110 jobs — those Cobalt are employees Enterprises Vice who will spend President Paul money in our Clark community.” She also praised Cobalt as a good corporate citizen. The company, founded by Fred Schule in 2004, was awarded Washington’s Small Business of the Year in 2014 by the U.S. Small Business Administration. “Cobalt ... is a very wellrespected manufacturer and we’re hoping that we can attract parts of their supply chain or

other manufacturers to community,” Ashe said. Cobalt owns two buildings in Granite Falls at 10917 Mountain Loop Highway and plans to continue to keep about 10 to 15 workers at the site, Clark said. The company has a retail motorcycle shop that it plans to move to the Granite Falls location and will continue to operate a hydraulics departments there. The company is looking for other uses for the property. He said the new Lake Stevens building was an “amazing building — very, very close to exactly what we need.” “For us, it’s not a lot of hoopla,” Clark said. “Manufacturing at this level is very direct. After the move, we’ll just want to get back to work.”

Fed keeps lid on short-term interest rates The Federal Reserve is keeping its key short-term interest rate at a record low in the face of threats from a weak global economy and excessively low inflation. But it suggested the possibility of a rate increase in December. A statement the Fed issued Wednesday said it would seek to determine “whether it will be appropriate to raise the target range at its next meeting” by monitoring the progress on employment and inflation. It marked the first time in seven years of record-low rates that the central bank has raised the possibility that it could raise its benchmark rate at its next meeting.

Allegiant Airlines MD-80s sit on the ramp at Orlando Sanford International Airport in Florida.

Airline finds Boeing MD-80 woes Bloomberg News

biz bits

WASHINGTON — When two Allegiant Airlines pilots couldn’t control their plane and scrubbed a takeoff from Las Vegas in August, the carrier discovered that a critical piece of equipment in the tail had come loose. Allegiant ordered inspections of its other Boeing MD-80s to ensure that all similar connections were secured. Eight days later, Allegiant said in response to questions from Bloomberg that all its aircraft “were found to be in working order.” By that time, mechanics had already come across two other jets with bolts in similar locations that weren’t properly locked in place, according to company repair logs obtained by Bloomberg. Later that month, they found another unsecured bolt on a third plane. While Allegiant said the fasteners weren’t on the same component that failed in Las Vegas, the Federal Aviation Administration said it is aware of the findings and has stepped up oversight of the airline. “The FAA intensified its focus on the carrier’s flight operations and aircraft maintenance programs,” the agency said Oct. 15, without elaborating. The aborted Aug. 17 takeoff occurred after a device that moves one of the jet’s two elevators — panels on the tail used to climb and descend — was disconnected, according to Allegiant. The maintenance logs from the follow-up checks show that two planes each were found to have an unsecured elevator bolt, while the third jet had an unsecured bolt on another key part — an aileron, which is on the wing and is used in turns.

Anything less than perfect work on this system can have catastrophic results. — John Goglia, former NTSB member

Because the findings on the three other planes didn’t specifically involve the so-called elevator boost actuator at issue in Las Vegas, they weren’t considered part of the inspection results, Allegiant spokeswoman Kimberly Schaefer said last week in response to questions from Bloomberg about the maintenance logs. “During the fleet-wide inspection of the elevator boost actuators, Allegiant mechanics made additional repairs to other aircraft, as they do each and every day,” Schaefer said. “As these repairs were outside the scope of the fleet campaign in question, they were logged per normal procedure.” FAA rules require the reporting of all maintenance actions — including fixing mistakes such as poorly attached bolts — but they don’t have to be disclosed immediately. Those actions are entered into a database shared quarterly with the agency. John Goglia, a former member of the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board, said the multiple instances of unsecured bolts and their locations on the aircraft were so serious they “should result in a focused FAA audit.” “This is not a coffee maker that we’re talking about here,” Goglia said. “This is a primary flight

control on the airplane. Anything less than perfect work on this system can have catastrophic results.” Allegiant, a unit of Allegiant Travel Co., specializes in flights to vacation destinations centered on Las Vegas and Orlando, Florida. Flight 436 on Aug. 17 was supposed to fly to Peoria, Illinois, from Las Vegas, carrying 158 passengers and six crew members. As the MD-80 rumbled down a Las Vegas runway, the front of the plane began to rise off the ground prematurely, defying the pilots’ attempts to keep the nose down, according to an FAA report. They abruptly halted the takeoff roll at 138 miles per hour, the report said. Allegiant’s inspections of its MD-80s found two other planes with elevator bolts that weren’t properly connected, maintenance records show. On Aug. 27, a mechanic working on another MD-80 found an unsecured bolt on an aileron, a maintenance log shows. Those assemblies are considered so crucial that mechanics are supposed to insert pins to ensure the nuts used to fasten the bolts can’t come undone. “Any failure to properly secure any part of a flight control is a major problem,” said Goglia, the ex-NTSB member who is also a former aircraft mechanic. “More

than one occurrence clearly indicates a maintenance organization that is not functioning properly.” Allegiant responded: “While we respect the credentials of Mr. Goglia, he does not have any specific knowledge about our company or the details of our operation.” AAR Corp.’s AAR Aircraft Services does large-scale maintenance on Allegiant’s MD-80s in Oklahoma City. Mechanics from Allegiant and AAR work on the areas of the aircraft where the wrongly secured bolts were found, Schaefer said. “Since hearing of the August 17 incident, AAR has been working with Allegiant and the FAA to investigate,” AAR spokeswoman Kathleen Cantillon said. “AAR has a 60-year history and culture of safety and compliance.” Work on flight control systems is considered critical because errors can lead to accidents, Goglia said. The NTSB concluded that an improperly installed elevator bolt caused an Emery Worldwide Inc. cargo jet in California to lose control and slam into the ground in California in 2000, killing all three people on board. The FAA said its intensified focus on Allegiant was also prompted by a July incident in Fargo, North Dakota, in which a pilot reported a low-fuel emergency. Allegiant said it’s working with the FAA in examining that episode. Earlier this year, the FAA put Allegiant under heightened surveillance as pilots neared a potential strike, a step the agency sometimes takes during possible labor actions or when a carrier is struggling financially. Allegiant won a court order in April blocking the walkout, and in May said the FAA had ended additional scrutiny.

AutoNation on Wednesday reported record quarterly profits and its biggest purchase in 15 years. The country’s largest auto dealer chain said profits from continuing operations reached an all-time high of $119 million, up 12 percent from last year’s third quarter. The Fort Lauderdale, Florida, company also announced plans to buy 12 stores in Texas that have annual revenues of roughly $800 million. The stores in the Allen Samuels Group of Waco sold about 19,500 new and used vehicles on a retail level last year. Those outlets in Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth, Corpus Christi, Tyler, Ennis and Waco now employ about 1,000 people and mainly sell Chrysler-related brands.

Salt worry sparks SUV recall by Ford Ford is recalling 129,000 midsize SUVs in parts of the U.S. and Canada to fix potential fuel leaks. The company said the recall covers the 2009 and 2010 Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX. In places where salt is used to clear the roads of snow, the fuel tanks can rust under the reinforcement brackets that hold them to the SUVs. This can cause a fuel leak or activate the check engine light. A leak could cause a fire. Ford said it doesn’t know of any fires caused by the problem. Dealers will inspect the fuel tanks and repair or replace them at no cost to customers.

Warmer summer benefits Heineken Dutch brewer Heineken said warm summer weather in Europe helped increase beer sales in the third quarter, while tough market conditions led to a drop in sales volume in Russia. Heineken said Wednesday that revenue rose 7.5 percent organically — stripping out the effects of currency fluctuations and acquisitions — to 5.5 billion euros ($6.08 billion) in the three months to October. The company recorded a net profit for the first nine months of the year of 1.8 billion euros ($2 billion), including an extraordinary post-tax gain of 375 million euros on the sale of its Mexican packaging unit Empaque, up from 1.1 billion euros in the same period last year.

Should Congress control tribal recognition? Associated Press BILLINGS, Mont. — A Republican proposal to let only Congress decide whether American Indian tribes deserve federal recognition threatens the legitimacy of hundreds of tribes and would add delay to what was long a broken system, an Obama administration official said Wednesday. The comments came as a House committee considered legislation to block the administration’s recent overhaul of the tribal recognition process. Republicans contend that the changes finalized by

the Interior Department over the summer lowered the standards for recognizing tribes and diminished the role of lawmakers. There are 566 federally recognized tribes in the U.S., and groups in Louisiana, Michigan, Florida, California and other states want to join their ranks. Some, such as Montana’s Little Shell Tribe of Chippewa Indians, have waited years or decades for a decision. Since the recent changes, federal officials announced recognition for yet another group, the Pamunkey Indian Tribe of Virginia, but the matter remains unsettled because the

Melissa Springer, an Everett resident, countered that the city should pass the ordinance, because the city was already taking other steps. “I believe we can do two things at once. We are looking upstream,” she said. The ordinance has drawn the attention of outside groups as well as local activists. Late Tuesday, the American Civil Liberties Union of Washington and Seattle University’s Homeless Rights Advocacy Project sent Mayor Ray Stephanson and the council letters urging the council to reject the ordinance, stating that it is “unconstitutional, ineffective, and unnecessarily costly and punitive,” according to the ACLU. Instead, the city should invest its resources into providing more services for those who are homeless or otherwise affected by poverty. Deputy city prosecutor David Hall told the council that the ordinance should be considered in the context of other initiatives

decision is under appeal. Federal acknowledgement allows tribes to be treated largely as their own nations within U.S. borders, with independent governments and legal systems. It also makes tribes eligible for federal housing, medical care and education. Republican U.S. Rep. Rob Bishop of Utah said during a Wednesday hearing on his proposal that Congress should have the final say in such matters. But that would bring back the worst of the old system, undermining attempts to create a more transparent and efficient process, Interior

the city is undertaking to combat homelessness and associated issues such as mental health, addiction and street-level crime. “Everett is in fact doing many of the things the authors of those letters emphasize,” Hall said. “The legitimate desire to protect our citizens is not, I would propose, the same thing as criminalizing homelessness,” he added. Councilwoman Judy Tuohy sponsored two amendments to the measure, one of which inserted a clause that emphasized that deferring panhandlers into social service programs was preferable to arresting and booking them. The other removed language that would have had the city set up and maintain a fund to collect donations, instead of directing would-be donors to a list of agencies. Tuohy, as well as Councilmen Scott Murphy, Jeff Moore and Scott Bader voted in favor of the revised ordinance. Councilmembers Brenda Stonecipher and Ron Gipson voted against it. Councilman Paul Roberts was absent. “I don’t like it. It appears we have an aggressive begging ordinance on the books already,” Gipson said. “I don’t support

Department Assistant Secretary for Indian Affairs Kevin Washburn said in remarks prepared for Wednesday delivery. Washburn also said the Republican plan “creates serious doubts” about the legitimacy of more than 200 tribes in Alaska and more than a dozen in California recognized by his agency over the past several decades. “Every one of those tribes is at risk because they are not congressionally recognized,” he said. Bishop, who chairs the House Natural Resources Committee, said the recognition system has been

this, changing the rules to target certain people.” Scott Murphy reiterated the point that the city was undertaking a number of initiatives, and that law enforcement had to be part of the solution. “I strongly believe that this ordinance as amended is a vote for public safety,” Murphy said. The ordinance will take effect 15 days after Stephanson signs it, after the amendments are added. The city’s ordinance took a circuitous route to Wednesday’s passage. An earlier version of the ordinance, which also drew the attention of the ACLU, was rejected by the council in April. That version emphasized safety, outlawing panhandling in median strips near intersections, for example. The current version originally included clauses that would have banned begging near ATMs and banks or lines for entertainment events. Those sections were removed after a federal judge struck down a similar measure in the city of Grand Junction, Colorado, this month. The city’s attempts to strengthen its codes have come after it adopted the findings of

a mess for decades. Any tribes that were lawfully recognized would not be affected by his proposal, he said. “My goal is to empower Native American tribes. We don’t have a great record. We do a lot of lip service to it,” he said, adding that he would be open to changes to his proposal as long as Congress makes the final decisions. Existing tribes with casino operations have aired similar concerns about the recent changes to the process. The ranking Democrat on the Natural Resources subcommittee that is

its Streets Initiative Task Force last year, which include 63 recommendations for dealing with Everett’s chronic problems with homelessness, and mental illness, addiction and petty street crime. Most of those recommendations focused on social services provisions, but they also included law enforcement recommendations. One of those was an earlier version of an anti-panhandling ordinance, which didn’t have unanimous support of the task force but was nonetheless included in the final report. Stephanson’s budget proposal for 2016, which was also presented at Wednesday’s council meeting, includes setting aside $1 million for a variety of initiatives surrounding street-level problems. Those include hiring five more police officers, two fulltime social workers to ride along with the cops, and a new prosecutor. Stephanson also intends to build 20 new permanent supportive housing units over the next two years for frequent users of city and emergency services.

considering the issue, Rep. Raul Ruiz of California, said the proposal would infuse “hyper-partisan” politics into the issue, allowing Bishop and the speaker of the House to control which groups are recognized, since they can decide what matters come up for a vote by lawmakers. Yet the Interior process also has been tainted by politics, according to past investigations by the agency’s Office of Inspector General. That includes a 2002 investigation that found a senior Interior official issued recognition decisions contrary to staff recommendations.

Laser From Page A1

“This is not a typical laser you’d see in a classroom or an office setting,” Martin said. She described the laser as about 6 inches long and weighing 2 pounds. The manufacturer claims the laser could light a match if held on target long enough, Martin said. The product packaging also says to use safety glasses and not to point it at faces. “Luckily, it was at a bit of distance,” she said. “Something close up would have been more damaging.” The man reportedly told a trooper “it was a new toy and he was just shining it into the water,” and it must have reflected onto the vessel, Martin said. That statement doesn’t mesh with what was reported by the crewmen, she said. Ferries system spokesman Ian Sterling on Wednesday said lasers can cause serious damage. “People should know there are serious ramifications for this,” he said. “You could hurt someone and you could face criminal charges.” Rikki King: 425-339-3449; rking@heraldnet.com.

IN OUR VIEW | House approval of Export-Import Bank

What else isn’t getting a vote? It’s not that surprising that the U.S. House finally passed legislation to take the Export-Import Bank out of the mothballs it was placed in back in June when its authorization expired. The support was there all along. The bank, which guarantees loans between American manufacturers and foreign buyers, was first created in 1934 and has been reauthorized 16 times since then with little opposition from Congress or the White House. It’s a tool that promotes exports of the products and services produced by companies large and small that support family-wage jobs in Snohomish County and the nation. Between 2007 and this year, the Ex-Im Bank supported more than $130 billion in exports from 227 Washington state businesses. The bank is self-supporting and generates income for the U.S. Treasury, earning more than $3.4 billion for the government since 2005. The legislation to reauthorize the bank now awaits a vote in the Senate, where a previous bill that linked it with the reauthorization of the federal highway fund passed

67-29, a margin of more than two-thirds support. The margin in the House on Tuesday was even larger, 313-118, nearly 3-to-1. But even with that overwhelming support in the House and Senate, the Ex-Im Bank has been shuttered since June 30, meaning a loss in potential sales for many businesses and threats by Boeing and other large manufacturers to move jobs overseas where foreign nations provide the loan guarantees. Why? Because conservatives, such as House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-California; Financial Services Committee Chairman Jeb Hensarling, R-Texas; and Speaker-nominee Paul Ryan, R-Wisconsin, oppose it and have blocked votes in the House. With the support of nearly all Democrats and 127 Republicans, representatives went around Republican leadership with a little-used procedure, known as a discharge petition, and pushed for a vote over the objections of McCarthy, Hensarling, Ryan and others in the more conservative caucuses. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell,

R-Kentucky, also an opponent of the bank, says the legislation won’t move forward there unless it is again tied to the transportation bill. Washington’s Democratic senators, Maria Cantwell and Patty Murray, both have voted for and spoken in support of the Ex-Im Bank. Cantwell, in a floor speech Wednesday, said the bank’s closing has caused the loss of thousands of jobs. And more could disappear with each passing day. Cantwell called for immediate action in the Senate to reauthorize the bank, whether in a stand-alone vote or as part of the transportation bill. “All you’re doing by killing the Export-Import Bank is enabling some other manufacturer in Europe or Asia or South America to compete with our manufacturers on an uneven playing field,” Cantwell said. She continued: “To allow a minority to thwart what is such an essential tool has been a mistake.” Leadership or not, why should a small number of congressional members be able to gum up the works and prevent votes on legislation

that a majority supports? And what other pieces of legislation, supported by a majority in both houses, are being kept from passage? It took the resignation of House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, to break a logjam in September and prevent a government shutdown. Now, with a bipartisan budget deal stuck by the White House and leaders in the House and Senate, some conservatives again threatened to risk shutdown to kill the deal. Likewise, a vote to raise the debt ceiling still is being challenged. And Congress must act on the transportation bill before it expires Nov. 20. We’re also waiting for a vote on the reauthorization of the Land and Water Conservation Fund, which expired in August. The fund, in effect for 50 years, uses royalties from offshore oil drilling to fund parks and public land acquisitions and development. All of the above — budgets, debt ceiling, transportation and parks funding — are bills that past Congresses have been able to approve with general agreement. Why not now?

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■SAFE KIDS

Program is one of Lovick’s ideas The Herald printed a great article Wednesday regarding Snohomish County’s Safe Kids Improvement Program that installs sidewalks and other safety improvements for kids walking to school. But you forgot to mention that the program is one of Snohomish County Executive John Lovick’s great ideas. I understand that the program was so important to Mr. Lovick that he had Brian Lewis, his liaison to the public works department, pull people from other projects to work on his program. So let’s give credit where credit is due. This is just one of the many reasons that John Lovick deserves our vote for reelection as Snohomish County Executive on Nov. 3. Kathy Christensen Everett

■■SNOHOMISH COUNTY

Tisdel needed for accountability I am writing to express my disappointment at the Snohomish County leadership for their continued mishandling of the courthouse situation. We have watched the cost of the project balloon from $75 million to $162 million with no clear direction and bickering between our elected leaders. The decision-making process has been flawed from the beginning. County leadership rushed into a decision without the necessary research and information. It’s like borrowing money from the bank to remodel your house before finding out how much the remodel is actually going to cost. The lack of accountability from county councilmembers and the executive’s office has been concerning. I am pleased that we have alternatives on the ballot this year, and I have been particularly impressed with Greg Tisdel, a candidate for Snohomish County Council. He is knowledgeable about county issues and dedicated to getting our county’s finances under control. I believe it is time for new leadership and Greg Tisdel will help move this county forward.

■■SCHOOL DISTRICTS

Lynnwood voters. Your fire department is not going anywhere and is not in need of saving. Do not be fooled by singleissue scare tactics. Please join me in voting for Shannon Sessions, Sid Roberts and Loren Simmonds.

I’ve been reading about the school districts posturing their proactive efforts to make transgender children feel comfortable at school. (“Area school districts seek to be more inclusive for transgender students.”) Are they claiming children currently enrolled are being tormented by the status quo? Or are they trying to head off possible future issues? Nowhere has anyone mentioned the number of transgender children currently enrolled or even anticipated to be enrolled in Snohomish County schools. I have no concerns about schools inventing this wheel for their possible benefit the help to other districts. But a guess or semi-reasonable estimate of the number of children involved and to be affected would be nice. And try to include the non-transgender children who might be traumatized by manipulation and exposure during this adjustment.

Advocates for gun control refocus efforts

he video montage opening the Brady Campaign’s conference on gun deaths Tuesday featured praise for Sarah and Jim Brady from leaders past and present. “They have remained committed to improving the lives and the safety of their fellow Americans,” Bill Clinton says in his message. But both Sarah DANA MILBANK and Jim Brady have died, and so is the idealistic movement for broad-based gun control that they championed. Sarah died this year; Jim, grievously injured in the Reagan assassination attempt, last year. Gun control has been moribund at the federal level since 1994 and lifeless since 2013, when even the slaughter of children at Sandy Hook couldn’t move Congress to ban assault weapons and high-capacity ammunition, or to expand background checks. So what is Dan Gross, who runs the Brady Campaign, so chirpy about? “We have crossed the threshold,” Gross, whose brother was shot in the head 18 years ago, told his gathering of 200 activists. “Real change is in the air. And the tipping point for our issue has finally arrived.” Gross overstates the case. But there is some truth to what he says. From the legislative debacle following Sandy Hook, the gun-control movement has retreated to a limited but pragmatic approach. Gone is the notion of “gun control,” replaced by “reducing gun deaths” or “gun violence prevention.” Gone, for now, are efforts to restrict any type of gun or ammunition. Instead, the focus is on background checks. The movement’s second-generation aim makes sense. A new Washington PostABC News poll finds that only 46 percent think new laws to reduce gun violence are more important than protecting gun rights — down from 52 percent in 2013. But upward of 85 percent of Americans support expanding background checks for the 4 in 10 gun sales that occur online or at gun shows. The movement, with its narrower focus, is better-funded than ever. “It’s the right place to be because it’s not about keeping certain guns away from all people,” Gross told me. “It’s about keeping all guns away from certain people” — such as felons and wife beaters. This approach, also pursued by Michael Bloomberg’s Everytown for Gun Safety, Gabby Giffords’ Americans for Responsible Solutions and others, follows the state-by-state playbook of the same-sex marriage movement. The emphasis is less on lobbying and more on elections and ballot initiatives. Since Sandy Hook, six states — Connecticut, Colorado, Delaware, New York, Washington and Oregon — have expanded background checks, and at least two more — Nevada and Maine — will have ballot initiatives next year. Advocates claim that domestic killings of women have been cut nearly in half in states that have checks for private gun sales. It’s worth noting that the NRA hasn’t fought background-check initiatives with any enthusiasm. Either the group is returning to its earlier support for background checks, or it sees steep odds in defeating the popular initiatives. The NRA maintains its stranglehold over Congress, where lawmakers who fear the group’s (overstated) power have even blocked federal funds from going to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to research gun violence, and have discouraged the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives from cracking down on the 5 percent of gun dealers that, advocates say, sell nearly 90 percent of the guns used in crimes. Sens. Joe Manchin, D-West Virginia, and Pat Toomey, R-Pennsylvania, have talked about reviving their failed bill on background checks, but Senate Democrats, rather than forcing a vote, issued a statement this month merely asking people to push their representatives on the issue. So it will probably be a long time before there’s a slowing of the march of victims and families across stages like the one at the Brady Campaign conference. “She was young, she was beautiful, she was in love,” Barbara Parker, with red eyes, said of her daughter Alison, the Roanoke, Virginia, reporter killed on live TV in August. “Ten days ago, we sprinkled her ashes in the Nantahala River. We still cry.” The tears will keep coming, as more are gunned down. But at least those formerly known as gun-control activists, having lowered their sights, have found a way to revitalize the movement. Said the Brady Campaign’s Gross: “We’re not alone in the wilderness anymore.” Dana Milbank is a Washington Post columnist.

Washington denied ID deadline extension By Rachel La Corte Associated Press

OLYMPIA — The federal government has denied Washington state an extension from complying with tougher federal requirements that require proof of legal U.S. residency in order for state driver’s licenses and IDs to be valid for federal purposes, including, eventually, boarding commercial aircraft. The letter from the Department of Homeland Security, obtained by The Associated Press on Wednesday, was sent Monday to the state Department of Licensing notifying of them of the decision. The department said the state

will be given a three-month grace period before its current temporary extension, issued earlier this year, expires, during which time federal agencies can continue to accept driver’s licenses and identification cards issued by Washington for official purposes. Washington state already offers enhanced driver’s licenses and IDs that require proof of U.S. citizenship and are valid under the federal law. In January, the federal government had granted the state an extension through Oct. 10 after state officials proposed a plan to the Legislature that would create a two-tiered licensing system that would keep the current enhanced license but would also create a

standard state license that would indicate it is not valid for federal purposes. But that measure never gained traction and the Legislature adjourned in July without passing anything related to REAL ID. “Although DHS recognizes the State of Washington’s efforts in enhancing the security of its driver’s licenses and identification cards, Washington has not provided adequate justification for continued noncompliance that would warrant granting your request of another extension,” the letter states. The federal REAL ID Act, passed in 2005, requires proof of U.S. citizenship or proof of lawful status in the U.S. in order for a

license to be valid for federal use. People without valid federal IDs might eventually need a passport or have to go through other screening processes in order to travel domestically or enter federal buildings. The law has had several implementation delays but access to some federal facilities is now restricted without an enhanced ID. As early as next year, such ID could be required to board commercial aircraft, though the federal government hasn’t given a firm timeline on access to flights. Tony Sermonti, legislative director for the state Department of Licensing, said there’s frustration with the Department of

Homeland Security because “the goal line keeps moving.” “On the fundamental pieces, there’s a lack of clarity from the federal government around what and when the portions of REAL ID act will be enforced,” he said. Since 2007, more than 500,000 Washington residents have gotten an enhanced driver’s license or enhanced ID card. There are about 5.4 million people with standard licenses, and about 600,000 with regular ID cards. Washington and New Mexico are the only states that do not require proof of legal presence in the U.S. to get a state license or ID. Other states give restricted licenses to people who can’t prove they are in the U.S. legally.

Two people sit near the beach in Seaside, Oregon, after most residents evacuated from the town during a tsunami warning following a major earthquake in Japan on March 11, 2011.

Thinking vertical for tsunami shelter By Terrence Petty Associated Press

PORTLAND, Ore. — Bracing for a tsunami like the one that devastated Japanese communities during a 2011 mega-earthquake, coastal communities from British Columbia to California have been grappling with how to protect people from a similar catastrophe. One of those towns is constructing the nation’s first structure built as a vertical tsunami refuge. Two years ago, voters in Westport, Washington, and other communities in the school district approved a $13.8 million bond to build a new elementary school that would be reinforced to withstand a big earthquake and have a tsunami evacuation area on the gym’s rooftop. “We have no natural high ground,” said Paula Akerlund, superintendent of the Ocosta School District, located on a peninsula, noting that they have 20-30 minutes between a quake and a tsunami to get to higher ground. That’s “impossible.” The new school is being built on a small ridge, which will put the reinforced roof of the gym above the highest tsunami surge expected by scientists. It is expected to be completed in March. The devastating 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan was a reminder of a mirror-image threat lurking just off the Pacific Northwest coast: a 600-mile-long fault that has not produced a major quake since 1700 but could do so any time. The fault is called the Cascadia Subduction Zone. Progress has been incremental in the region as communities seek funding for expensive projects, examine the most effective means of protecting people and ponder how much they are willing to spend to prepare for a disaster. A study by the U.S. Geological Survey and university researchers that was published this year shows that of the 94,870 people living in tsunami hazard zones in northern California, Oregon and Washington, about 21,500 would not have time to reach higher ground if they walk slowly. That

Construction is under way on a new elementary school in Westport on Oct. 8. The structure is being built to serve a second role as a tsunami shelter, because Westport currently has no ground high enough to protect people from the high waters and debris that could come from a tsunami.

goes down to 16,000 if they walk quickly. Nearly 70 percent of the residents at highest risk are in Washington communities, followed by Oregon with 29 percent and California with 4 percent. Washington has identified the need for 55 vertical evacuation structures in low-lying coastal areas in three counties. The school gym in Westport will be the first to be built. The next may be a manmade berm in Long Beach capable of giving refuge to 800 people. Emergency planners in California are looking into creating some sort of vertical evacuation structure on its northern coast — building a berm or perhaps fortifying an existing tall structure to withstand a big quake and serve as a tsunami refuge.

A building would have to be on soil that would not be in danger of liquefying during a major earthquake. Up and down the coast, officials have been trying to ensure that residents and tourists know how to quickly get to high ground by using designated tsunami evacuation routes. Newport, on Oregon’s central coast, is turning a 90-foot-tall forested hill into a tsunami evacuation area. “Safe Haven Hill,” as its being called, will have lighted walkways to the top so evacuees can find their way at night. Seaside, on Oregon’s northern coast, has some natural high ground for evacuees but it also has bridges likely to collapse during a big earthquake, cutting off escape to thousands of people. Many coastal communities

are strapped for cash, a factor in planning. Even though Seaside is one of the most vulnerable communities on the Oregon coast, voters rejected a $129 million bond to move three schools to safer ground. Federal money helped move high school students out of the tsunami zone in Waldport, on Oregon’s central coast, into a new school on high ground. In Curry County, on Oregon’s border with California, voters two years ago approved a $10 million bond issue to replace an aging hospital. The new hospital is going up on the same lot as the old one, in the city of Gold Beach. Maps dating from the 1990s put the lot outside the projected tsunami zone. But newer maps show it could be swamped by a tsunami, depending on the severity and proximity of the offshore quake. State emergency managers were alarmed by the site choice. Jodi Fritts, city administrator for Gold Beach, said alternative sites on high ground are prone to landslides and costs would be prohibitive for putting in roads, sidewalks, and water and sewer lines, especially in a county as poor as Curry. Fritts argued that with no one able to predict with certainty when the big quake and tsunami will come and how far the tsunami waters will reach, and with the community in desperate need of a modern hospital, going ahead was the right choice.

SEATTLE — Washington fourth- and eighth-graders appear to be learning as much in school as kids in the state did two years ago, according to the results released Wednesday of a national test on math and reading. Washington continues to beat the national average in every age and subject category of the National Assessment of Education Progress, commonly known as the Nation’s Report Card. In Washington, 47 percent of fourth-graders and 39 percent of eighth-graders scored at or above the proficient level in math. In reading, 40 percent of fourth-graders and 37 percent of eighth-graders hit that mark. Nationally, 40 percent of fourth-graders and 33 percent of eighth-graders scored at or above the proficient level in math. In reading, 36 percent of fourth-graders nationally and 34 percent of eighth-graders were proficient or above. The tests are given every two years to a sample of fourth- and eighth-graders across the nation. These tests allow educators to compare educational knowledge of students nationally, because unlike state-specific tests, the National Assessment of Education Progress uses the same test questions and same proficiency scores in every state. In Washington, this year’s results, compared with results in 2013, showed average incremental losses of a few points in eighth-grade math and reading scores and fourth-grade math scores. The scores went up slightly in fourth-grade reading. Superintendent of Public Instruction Randy Dorn notes that few states did better than Washington students on the 2015 tests, with only three states scoring better than Washington’s fourth graders and five states scoring higher than the state’s eighth graders. Washington’s poor students and those from many minority groups continue to score below the average scores for white or Asian students. Washington’s black students scored well below white classmates in the state, and the achievement gap for Washington’s black eighth-graders was significantly wider than the national average for black eighth-graders. Washington’s black students did better on their math tests in 2013, while Hispanic students showed some improvement this year.

Sounders topple nemesis

Brandon defeats Everett in shootout Dario Winkler scores against his former team but the Silvertips fall 3-2. By Jesse Geleynse Herald Writer

Dempsey and Nelson Valdez, part of a wild first half that featured four goals in the first 22 minutes. But Friberg provided the winner, taking advantage of a third defensive mistake by the Galaxy and sending Seattle into the conference semifinals against either FC Dallas or Vancouver. “I think Christmas came early in Seattle. We absolutely giftwrapped that game for them tonight,” Los Angeles coach Bruce Arena said. “Our play in front of our goal defensively was atrocious tonight.” Sebastian Lletget and Gyasi Zardes scored in the first half for Los Angeles, but the Galaxy had just five shots in the second half as Seattle’s defense tightened after giving up 11 shots in the first half.

EVERETT — Dario Winkler had a memorable Everett Silvertips debut, but didn’t get the ultimate prize he sought Wednesday night at Xfinity Arena. The newest Silvertip scored a goal in his Everett debut, against his former team no less, but the Brandon Wheat Kings came from behind to defeat the Silvertips 3-2 in a shootout before 3,408 fans, nearly two dozen NHL scouts and Montreal Canadiens general manager Marc Bergevin. “The win was what I wanted,” said Winkler, who was waived by Brandon two weeks ago and subsequently claimed by the Tips. “It was nice to score a goal, but it is better when we win the game.” Reid Duke was the only player to find the net in the Dario shootout as the Winkler Wheat Kings’ center scored on Brandon’s third and final attempt. Brandon goaltender Logan Thompson then saved Matt Fonteyne’s attempt to tie which gave the Wheat Kings the victory. Rihards Bukarts missed Brandon’s first shootout attempt, and Everett goaltender Carter Hart saved John Quenneville’s second attempt to set up Duke’s game-winner. Thompson saved Carson Stadnyk’s attempt, and Patrick Bajkov’s shot was wide for the Silvertips. “You go to a shootout and I don’t get affected by that much because it’s not really hockey,” Everett head coach Kevin Constantine said. “It’s kind of an entertaining way to make sure there isn’t a tie which is good for fans.”

SEATTLE — After they stopped celebrating, the Seattle Sounder admitted this victory meant a little more. The Sounders finally got the better of the Los Angeles Galaxy and knocked off the defending MLS Cup champions. Erik Friberg took advantage of a defensive mistake and scored in the 73rd minute, lifting the Sounders to a 3-2 victory in the knockout round of the MLS Cup playoffs on Wednesday night. Seattle had been eliminated by Los Angeles in the playoffs three times since 2010.

MUKILTEO – For a second consecutive season the Wesco 4A regular season girls soccer championship came down to Jackson and Kamiak playing in the final game of the regular season and for a second consecutive season the Timberwolves claimed the title. After losing its first game of the season on Monday against Lake Stevens, Kamiak needed a win against Jackson to claim the crown. All the Timberwolves needed was a tie, but they got the win, 2-1 over the Knights. “It’s a stop along the way, but because our league is also the same as our district, winning your league championship is just bragging rights,” Jackson head coach Jesslyn Kellerman said. “Winning the district is really what gets you the spot you want going to state. It’s a stop along the way and it’s a great stop. It was one of our goals at the beginning of the season, but still have a lot of work to do.” See T-WOLVES, Page C6

fair-to-middling number of salmon fishermen will head for our backyard saltwater on Sunday morning, looking for blackmouth, as marine areas 8-1, 8-2 and 9 (Deception Pass to Edmonds) reopen to chinook retention. Or maybe they won’t. The winter blackmouth season may open Nov. 1 as scheduled, or not, depending on what Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife personnel heard Wednesday at a meeting of the department’s citizen salmon advisory council. A WDFW decision may have been reached as you read this or, if not, it will likely be posted by the end of the week. Or maybe not. State biologist Aaron Dufault in Olympia said that if state salmon managers decide to let the season open on Sunday as published in the current fishing regulations pamphlet, there will probably be no public announcement made. So, about the only way to follow the situation is to monitor the department’s website, www. wdfw.wa.gov/fishing, or to call the Mill Creek office (business hours only) at 425-775-1311. No news means “let’s go fishing.” The problem developed, Dufault said, when an unusually high number of sub-legal, 16- to 19-inch chinook showed up in parts of Puget Sound. Anglers also reported hooking and releasing a lot of chinook “shakers,” as they’re called, during earlier coho-directed fisheries in central Sound. This swarm of juvenile fish is composed of both wild and hatchery (fin-clipped) fish. When these sub-legals are hooked and released, there is a certain percentage of mortality, used by WDFW to calculate the “take” of wild chinook, just as if they were adult fish, caught and kept. Hooking and releasing a sub-legal fish is called, in biospeak, an “encounter,” and these encounters are “budgeted”

There’s not much of autumn left, but what there is should provide some good fishing for fat, footlong rainbow trout in a trio of lakes right in our backyard. The state Department of Fish and Wildlife is continuing a program designed to improve fall/winter trout fishing opportunities, and will plant 44 Western Washington lakes this month and next with chunky rainbows running 11 to 13 inches — with a few larger fish thrown in. Gissberg Ponds (Twin Lakes), the borrow-pit lakes adjacent to the west side of I-5 at Smokey Point, will receive the bulk of the plant slated for this area. North Gissberg (open only to juveniles under the age of 15) will have been planted by this

when managers are setting quotas or guidelines for specific fisheries. Generally, the more encounters, the fewer adult fish allowed. Dufault said the problem became apparent earlier this fall, when Marine Area 10 (SeattleBremerton) went to a fishery similar to those scheduled to open Sunday in our area. It took less than two weeks for anglers to use up 60 or 70 percent of the encounters budgeted for Area 10, and the fishery was closed. “We don’t want that to happen again, so we’re trying to get out front of the issue in 8-1, 8-2 and 9,” Dufault said. “But if the season is opened in 9, given our current information, it’s unlikely that it would remain open in its entirety.” Marine areas 8-1 and 8-2 are “on our radar,” he said, but Area 9 is the major issue right now. There’s a wide range of methods to help deal with the problem, said Mike Chamberlain, longtime local angler and owner of Ted’s Sports Center in Lynnwood. Keep the season closed until the shakers disperse or migrate out of the area; set fewer fishing days per week; let it open for a week and see how the impact sets up, then make a longer-term decision; require gear, such as larger plugs, which would tend to hook fewer small fish, and others. “My personal recommendation would be to keep the season closed until most of the wild fish leave the area,” Chamberlain said. “The danger, of course, is that it could remain closed so long that we wouldn’t get our

weekend with 1,000 trout, and the south lake will have received 2,000 fish. Next week, North Gissberg gets another 500, and the south lake, an additional 1,000 rainbows. Up the Sky Valley, Lake Tye will have received a nice plant of 4,000 trout by this weekend. The lake is on the west edge of Monroe, just south of Highway 2. Inflatable craft are a good tool on the three lakes, trolling a black or brown wet fly, a Dick Nite spoon, or a dark Rooster Tail.

full opportunity to fish.” Curt Kraemer, Marysville resident, retired WDFW biologist and a member of the salmon advisory group, said the majority, but certainly not all, of the salmon fishermen he’s talked to seem to favor waiting until later in the winter to open the fishery. Gary Krein, Everett resident, owner/skipper of All Star Charters, and fishing activist, takes a longer-range view. “Regardless of how this immediate situation is resolved,” Krein said, “everyone — and that’s everyone — needs to help reduce sub-legal salmon encounters.” He said that in his opinion, the best way to do that might be to adjust salmon tackle, either voluntarily or made mandatory. “Go to 5-inch plugs with 5/0 or larger hooks, or the bigger spoons with a 5/0 or larger hook,” he said. “If you have to fish a hoochie, tie it with a single 5/0 or larger hook and eliminate the trailing hook, and the same for herring — no tandem hooks.” He admitted that the system could result in missing or losing a few larger fish also, but on the other hand eliminate a lot of the hassle of dealing with shakers. Tackle shop owner Chamberlain said that if the season does open as scheduled, Area 9 seems to be holding some nice blackmouth and could offer pretty good fishing. A state test fishery produced a 17-pounder recently, he said. Chamberlain suggests 4- or 5-inch Tomic or Silver Horde

plugs in glow mother of pearl, flasher/hoochie, flasher/spoon or Kingfisher spoon alone, in white lightning, cookies ‘n cream, Irish cream, or one of the relatively new Herring Aid colors.

Drunken birds State biologist Joe Hymer in the WDFW’s Vancouver office, comes up with the following anecdote: One morning in the summer of 1961, hundreds of crazed birds attacked the seaside town of Capitola, California. The birds “cried like babies” as they dove into street lamps, crashed through glass windows, and attacked people on the ground. Most of the birds were sooty shearwaters, a normally non-aggressive species that feeds on small fish and comes ashore only to breed. The incident fascinated Alfred Hitchcock, who frequently vacationed in nearby Santa Cruz. He included newspaper clippings about the Capitola attack in his studio proposal for the movie “The Birds,” which appeared in cinemas two years later. The agent responsible for the attack is now widely thought to have been domoic acid. Yep — the same marine toxin currently delaying the opening of fall razor clam season on the Washington coast.

Big salmon and good deed The WDFW solicits help from anglers willing to hook-and-line catch fall chinook brood stock at the Vernita and White Bluffs boat launches on the Hanford Reach portion of the central Columbia River, Friday and Saturday, 6 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sunday, 6 a.m. to 1 p.m. The normal season closes Oct. 31 on the Reach. The Grant County PUD, the Coastal Conservation Association, and WDFW will have people and fish trucks at the two launches to collect the fish and transport them to the Priest Rapids Hatchery for use in improving genetics in the fall chinook program. Fishing should be pretty good, since WDFW estimates some 200,000 fall kings will be spawning in the Reach this year. The CCA is also running a derby in connection with the event; $25 entry fee; most salmon turned in per boat per day and for the entire event eligible for thousands of dollars in prizes. For information on the broodstock collection, contact WDFW biologist Paul Hoffarth at 509-5452284, or by email at paul.hoffarth@ dfw.wa.gov.

Huskies’ OC not worried about criticism Jonathan Smith, who has come under fire as the UW offense has struggled to produce, says pressure from fans is ‘part of the deal.’ By Christian Caple The News Tribune

SEATTLE — Jonathan Smith says he “had not heard a ton” of the criticism directed his way as a result of the Washington Huskies’ offensive struggles so far this season. Which must also mean that Jonathan Smith does not closely monitor the mentions section of his Twitter account. Or read the online comments section of nearly any article written about the team. Washington’s offense ranks at or near the bottom of the Pac-12 in several statistical categories — including scoring (11th), total offense (12th), rushing offense (11th), pass efficiency (10th), first downs (12th), and thirddown conversions (11th). They also rank eighth in the league (and tied for 65th nationally) in offensive yards per play, and have run fewer offensive plays than all but two FBS teams. Their struggles were never more apparent than in Saturday’s loss at Stanford, in which the Huskies ran just 46 plays, possessed the ball for fewer than 20 minutes and punted on each of their first-half possessions — a byproduct, certainly, of redshirt freshman K.J. CartaSamuels making his first career start at quarterback in place of the injured Jake Browning. So it is that an evident portion of the viewing public has designated Smith, the team’s offensive

coordinator, as the scapegoat. It’s a sentiment more than a year in the making — UW’s inconsistent offense in 2014 led many to question Smith’s playcalling, and those concerns have only grown louder as the Huskies stumble through another season of offensive discontent. Asked Wednesday if he sees or hears such criticism, Smith said that he doesn’t, because “I don’t listen to a lot of it. I can imagine it’s got to be out there. The one thing you like, is you like playing with a university that has a passionate fanbase. And that’s what we’ve got. “We’ve got some frustrations and whatnot, so it’s understandable. But I have not followed it a ton.” That wouldn’t be particularly constructive, anyway. And the truth is that every offensive coordinator is going to face some blowback from fans at some point.

Smith, who is scheduled to be paid about $440,000 this year, understands. “It’s part of the deal,” he said, “and that’s what we signed up for.” It also isn’t completely warranted. The Huskies’ offense has been hard to watch at times this season. As the offensive coordinator, Smith surely shares at least a portion of the blame for that. But as much as fans might not want to hear it, the Huskies are still starting a true freshman at quarterback and an inexperienced offensive line that includes a true freshman at left tackle. Even their most consistent offensive player, tailback Myles Gaskin, is a true freshman and still learning how to play the position at the college level. Calling plays for such an offense isn’t as simple as one might think. And any criticism of the team’s offensive strategy must also include coach Chris Petersen,

who delegates many responsibilities to his assistants but certainly has a hand in UW’s weekly offensive gameplan. Petersen said Monday that Smith shouldn’t bear the brunt of the criticism. “I think we can go through every single play and show you where it is,” Petersen said. “The head coach, the quarterback — those guys always have to take the bullets, and there are a lot more people involved than just that.” Asked last week to evaluate the team’s offensive playcalling, Petersen said: “We’re trying to put our guys in the best position they can to make plays. Trying to figure out ways to score more points, without question. That’s the bottom line. “But we’re trying to stay balanced and we can’t put it all on our quarterback, can’t put it all on our O-line to pass-protect him and those things. So we’ve got to pick and choose our spots, and when we get a chance to strike downfield, we’ve got to be able to make a play or two. So we’ll just keep tweaking and analyzing. And that’s what we do all day long — trying to put our guys in the best position to be successful.” Said Smith: “I think it comes down to the execution. We’ve got to get better. I’m not going to stand here and say it’s been outstanding, because it hasn’t been executed very well, so it’s got to get better.” The complaints will continue until it does.

Note Smith said Browning, who did not play against Stanford, has done a “little bit more than he did last week” in practice. “Still, I don’t know if he’ll be able to go or not, but he’s done a little bit more.”

Royals’ Volquez doesn’t know when he’ll be ready to play Royals 2, Mets 0

Associated Press SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic — Kansas City Royals pitcher Edinson Volquez said Wednesday that he didn’t know whether he would be ready to play in the World Series once he returns to the U.S. following his father’s funeral in the Dominican Republic. Volquez said he was in a lot of pain as his eyes welled with tears while he attended his father’s memorial service a day before the funeral. “Losing a loved one is hard,” he said. “My father was everything to me, and he supported me in everything throughout my career. We won the game, but I would have changed that if it meant he could still be alive.” His father, 63-year-old Daniel Volquez, died of heart failure just before the right-hander started Game 1 of the World Series against the New York Mets on Tuesday night. Volquez said he learned about his father’s death when he stepped off the mound after allowing three runs over six innings. “My wife was waiting for me with the general manager and they told me what had happened after I finished working,” he said. “I want to thank my teammates for all their support, to (Johnny) Cueto and Yordano (Ventura), who were the first ones to call me.” Volquez said he would return to the U.S. on Friday or Saturday. “But I don’t know if I’ll be ready for that appearance,” he said. The Royals were hopeful that Volquez would rejoin them when they head to New York later in the week. “Last thing Eddie told the guys last night when he left is, ‘I’ll see you in New York,”’ Kansas City manager Ned Yost said before Game 2 Wednesday night. “I expect Eddie to be there and ready to go for Game 5,” he said. The Royals and Mets have a day off Thursday. Game 3 is set for Friday night at Citi Field. It was the elder Volquez who introduced his son to the game, buying his son his first glove — a Pedro Martinez model. “I can definitely understand what he’s going through right now,” said Royals third baseman Mike Moustakas, whose mother, Connie, died of cancer in August. “When someone loses a family member, that takes priority over everything that happens. Baseball is baseball, but family, things that happen like that — that’s something that is more important than baseball.” Volquez kept the Royals in the game long enough Tuesday night for them to tie it in the bottom half. The Mets pulled ahead later, but Alex Gordon’s home run in the ninth inning kept the game going. The Royals eventually prevailed 5-4 in 14 innings. Afterward, Volquez and his family spent some private time in Yost’s office, and a few teammates spoke to him briefly before he departed the clubhouse. “He’s going to be missed the next couple of days. Whenever he decides to come back, whenever he’s comfortable, we’re going to be here waiting for him with open arms,” said left-hander Danny Duffy, who pitched in relief after Volquez left the game. “I came in from pitching I saw him in here and I said, ‘Volky, great job,”’ Duffy said. “He’d already showered and I said, ‘What’s going on?’ He told me and I couldn’t put words to it, man.” Yost established a contingency plan with assistant coaches Don Wakamatsu and Pedro Grifol in the event Volquez could not pitch. Game 4 starter Chris Young, who lost his father, Charles, to cancer a month ago, would have taken the mound against the Mets. Young wound up throwing three innings in relief, earning the win in Game 1. “Our plan for Chris Young was that if we needed him, we would use him 45 to 50 pitches, and he still would be available Game 4,” Yost said. “It would be just like a short start and coming back a day early. He hadn’t pitched in six days. We wanted to use Chris in that situation.”

Royals take charge Cueto pitches 2-hitter as Kansas City beats Mets 7-1 to take 2-0 lead in World Series By Ronald Blum Associated Press

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — — Following the final out, after Johnny Cueto completed his two-hitter, several hundred fans remained in Kauffman Stadium, wanting one more look at the Kansas City Royals. The next time they see Eric Hosmer and his teammates may be in a parade. After smothering the Mets 7-1 Wednesday night with Cueto and their pesky offense, the Royals have a 2-0 World Series lead and can capture their first title since 1985 when play resumes at New York’s Citi Field this weekend. Hosmer thought about Kansas City’s seven-game loss to the Giants in 2014. “There’s still a lot of work yet to do,” he said. “Last year we took a 2-1 lead in San Francisco and were feeling pretty good about ourselves.” Kansas City wore down Jacob deGrom with persistence and prowess, then pounced. Hosmer hit a tiebreaking, two-run single with two outs in a fourrun fifth inning that included 14 foul balls. Nineteen hours after Hosmer’s sacrifice fly won a 14-inning thriller, Cueto varied his delivery with occasional quick pitches and kept the Mets off balance. The teams take Thursday off, then New York’s Citi Field hosts its first Series game Friday, when rookie Noah Syndergaard starts for the Mets and Yordano Ventura for the Royals. Forty-one of the 51 teams to take 2-0 leads in best-of-seven World Series have gone on to win the title, including nine straight since Atlanta stumbled against the New York Yankees in 1996. Kansas City had the best contact hitters in the major leagues this season, missing on just 19.7 percent of swings, according to STATS. The Dodgers and Cubs swung and missed 58 times in

The Wheat Kings dominated the puck possession and outshot Everett 40-22 through regulation and overtime as the defending Eastern Conference champions erased a two-goal deficit. “The fact the shots looked like that didn’t surprise me,” Constantine said. “We got a point against a good hockey team. That’s not the end of the world. That’s not a bad thing.” Indeed, the Wheat Kings came in averaging 42 shots per game. Yet Everett relied on sterling 17-year-old goaltender Hart whose 38 saves kept the Silvertips from ever trailing prior to the shootout. “I thought we really battled hard tonight,” Hart said. “Everyone was blocking shots and I thought everyone looked good

Royals pitcher Johnny Cueto (47) and shortstop Alcides Escobar (2) celebrate after the third out in the top of the eighth inning.

deGrom’s first three postseason outings, but he got just three swings and misses against the Royals — his career low. “We don’t swing and miss,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. “We find ways to just keep putting the ball in play until you find holes.” Of deGrom’s 94 pitches, 23 were fouled off by the Royals. “I told Jake not everything has to be a strike,” Mets manager Terry Collins said. “You’ve got to move it around. You’ve got to change speeds, give them something to look at. If you continue to pound the strike zone, they’re going to put it in play, and that’s what they did.” Cueto has struggled on the road, where opposing fans taunt him by repeating his name in a sing-song voice. But since the Royals acquired the free-agent-to-be from Cincinnati in July, he’s been Johnny on the spot at Kauffman Stadium. He pitched two-hit ball over eight innings to win Game 5 of the Division Series against Houston, and Kansas City lined

up its Series rotation to have Cueto starting Games 2 and 6 at home. Cueto struck out four and walked three in the low-hit Series complete game by an AL pitcher since Boston’s Jim Lonborg threw a one-hitter against St. Louis in 1967. Both New York hits were soft singles by Lucas Duda, an infield roller to third that took advantage of the shift in the second inning and an opposite-field RBI single to left in the fourth. Cueto let loose some emotion at the end of the eighth inning, when Alcides Escobar made a nifty play to retire Juan Lagares for the final out. As Escobar sprinted past him, Cueto exchanged a flamboyant high five with the shortstop. After Yoenis Cespedes flied to center for the final out, Cueto pointed to the sky and was congratulated by catcher Salvador Perez. Cueto pitched the first Series complete game by an AL pitcher since Minnesota’s Jack Morris won Game 7 against Atlanta in 1991.

tonight.” The Silvertips looked particularly good early. Everett led 2-0 after Winkler’s goal at 3:39 in the second period. However the Wheat Kings used a powerful slapshot goal by Bukarts from just inside the blue line to reach the scoreboard at 8:50 in the second. Braylon Shmyr scored the equalizer from the left side of the crease with assists from Macoy Erkamps and Ivan Provonov at 6:28 in the third to make it 2-2 and necessitate the extra session. “It would have been heartbreaking not to get a point out of that game because they’re a good team,” Constantine said. “We put ourselves in a nice position by scoring first.” The Tips took the early lead at 15:21 in the first. Stadnyk collected a pass from Bajkov on the right side of the crease. Stadnyk’s first attempt didn’t go, but he kept battling in front

of the net before finally nudging it across the line for a 1-0. Winkler went top shelf from the left side of the crease off an assist from Cole MacDonald for a 2-0 lead early in the second period.

Los Angeles had to travel to Seattle after losing at Sporting Kansas City on the final day of the regular season. The Galaxy entered the final day in position to avoid the knockout round, but are now done for the year. “When you’re the champions and you know what it feels like to lift that trophy and it can be taken away from you, it’s difficult to take,” Los Angeles’ Robbie Keane said. Friberg’s goal started with a cross from Tyrone Mears into the penalty area. The ball was headed by Los Angeles defenders A.J. DeLaGarza and Leonardo, but goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts left his net and slipped. The ball fell to Friberg, who put the left-footed shot into the far corner of the net. “It was perfect,” Friberg said. “It’s always fun to score a goal, but the important thing is we won.” Los Angeles’ best chance late came in the 82nd minute when Zardes’ shot from 15 yards was pushed aside by goalkeeper Stefan Frei. The wild first half featured Seattle letting two leads slip away in the first 22 minutes and having a third goal waived off after a lengthy discussion between officials determined Dempsey was offside and negated Andreas Ivanschitz’s goal. Dempsey scored after a miscommunication between Ricketts and defender Omar Gonzalez, but Los Angeles answered quickly. Touch passes from Giovani Dos Santos and Zardes left Lletget unmarked, and his shot beat Frei to the far post in the sixth minute. Seattle went back in front in the 12th minute when Ivanschitz’s free kick from 35 yards found Valdez streaking past Steven Gerrard, and he finished for his second goal with Seattle. Again, the lead lasted just a few minutes, with Zardes pulling the Galaxy even when his shot deflected off Valdez and past Frei. “The toughest road lies ahead, but obviously (this) is a good feeling,” Seattle’s Brad Evans said.

Cowboys’ Cassel is a grinder By Todd Milles The News Tribune

RENTON — Despite holding of one of the most prestigious positions in professional sports — starting quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys — Matt Cassel isn’t one to get caught up in glitz, glamour and fame. He is one of the NFL’s true grinders. The seventh-round draft pick in 2005 by New England did not start a game at Southern California. But Cassel has found ways to survive — and at times flourish — with five different organizations. As Tony Romo continues to mend from a broken collarbone, Cassel will start Sunday against his old college coach Pete Carroll, and the reigning NFC champion Seattle Seahawks. “We’ve seen Matt Cassel before. He can throw the football around the yard,” Carroll said. “Every place he has gone, he has done well.” Cassel was USC’s backup quarterback in 2002 when Carson Palmer won the Heisman Trophy. The next fall, Cassel, a redshirt junior, had one semester remaining before graduating. He and Matt Leinart competed for the starting job. The week before the 2003 season opener against Auburn, Carroll named his starter. He chose Leinart. “Really a coin toss,” Carroll said. After that, Cassel played very little quarterback at USC. He moved out to wide receiver, H-back, and was a regular on the Trojans’ special teams units, including the wedge blocking unit on kickoff returns. He was also on the hands’ team for onside kick — and made a final recovery to beat UCLA. “(Carroll) said it was the best play of my career,” Cassel said. “I was like, ‘That basically sums it up.’” So why didn’t Cassel leave USC and go to another program in need of a quarterback? “I was in a Catch-22 with school ... and if you leave at that point as redshirt junior, I would have had to go to a (FCS) school. And then you kind of roll the dice. “I kind of got stuck in that backup (quarterback) role. But at the same time I always believed in my abilities. I just didn’t know if I’d ever have an opportunity to get to the NFL based on the simple fact that I never started a game.” Cassel was so impressive during his pro workout day, NFL teams showed vast interest. Jason Garrett, now the Cowboys

Seahawks From Page C1

Just how involved were they in Seattle’s 20-3 victory at San Francisco last Thursday? Bennett was in the 49ers backfield all night, credited with 31⁄2 sacks. His efforts were acknowledged by the NFL on Wednesday as he was named the NFC Defensive Player of the Week. Meanwhile, when it wasn’t Bennett hounding Colin Kaepernick, it was Avril doing the honors. Avril had 11⁄2 sacks of his own as the Seahawks racked up a season-high six as a team. And they celebrated their sacks in their own styles — Bennett’s flamboyant hip-thrusting dance and biceps kissing flirting with NFL fines, while Avril limited himself to understated fist pumps. “We’re two different types of people, but we get along so well,” Avril said. “It’s like a brother relationship. He’s very outspoken and crazy, I’m more of the laid-back guy. I kind of mellow him out a little sometimes when he’s getting a little crazy, and he kind of brings it out of me a little bit when I need to.” Said Bennett: “Cliff is just a good guy. He’s one of those guys who doesn’t say a lot to (the media) ... but he’s one of my best friends on the team. “He does everything right, he makes a lot of plays,” Bennett continued. “I think sometimes people look over him because we have so many big names on defense. If you look at our roster and look at the money our defense makes, there’s only one guy who’s not making over $5 million. It’s crazy that he gets overlooked, but he’s done a great job this year.” Avril and Bennett joined the Seahawks just two days apart in March of 2013. Seattle, looking to add the final touches to a Super Bowl-caliber team, knew it needed to improve its pass rush. The Seahawks addressed that issue by picking up the two best free-agent pass rushers on the market, first snapping up Avril from Detroit, then landing Bennett from Tampa Bay. Their first season with Seattle they both came off the bench, deferring to starters Chris Clemons and Red Bryant, though both saw plenty of playing time, especially on passing downs. Bennett led the team in sacks with 81⁄2, and Avril was just a half sack behind as Seattle went on to win the Super Bowl. Now both are on pace for their most productive seasons with the Seahawks. Avril’s 26 tackles already surpass his season total from each of his previous two campaigns with Seattle, while Bennett’s 28 are closing in on the 38 and 31 he had

coach, was a quarterbacks coach in Miami when Cassel was an NFL draft prospect. “I was on the phone with him in the seventh round talking to him about coming to Miami as a free agent,” Garrett said. “And he got drafted by New England.” In 2008, after Tom Brady suffered a season-ending knee injury in the opener, Cassel led the Patriots to an 11-5 season. That opened the door for a trade to Kansas City, where he became a Pro Bowl selection in 2010. He played for Minnesota for two seasons (2013-14), then went to Buffalo in a trade. On Sept. 22, the Cowboys sent the Bills a fifth-round draft pick in 2017 in exchange for Cassel and a seventh-round pick in 2017. Last week, he started his first game for Dallas against the New York Giants. “When Tony went down, it really was all hands on deck for us,” Garrett said. “(Cassel) is certainly a very physically capable guy. He goes about it the right way — he is smart, he is tough and he is a veteran player.”

Kitna still retired Two seasons ago, when Garrett lost Romo heading into the final weeks of the season, a friend called. It was Jon Kitna, who played 17 seasons in the NFL — including with the Cowboys from 2009-11. Kitna said he would sign for one week to help the team prepare for the Philadelphia Eagles, then retire one final time. But when Romo got hurt in September, did the Cowboys think about reaching out to Kitna, who now coaches high school football at Waxahachie High School outside of Dallas? “In his mind, he has moved on now,” Garrett said.

Extra points Carroll said for now Drew Nowak remains the starting center with Patrick Lewis just now getting back from an ankle injury. Offensive line coach Tom Cable said the team won’t take a starter’s job away because of injury, but that it’s too soon to know if Lewis will be healthy enough to start at Dallas. … With RB Thomas Rawls (calf) still uncertain for this weekend, the Seahawks signed Bryce Brown on Tuesday. Brown said the similarities between the offense he ran two seasons ago and Seattle’s zone-read running game are similar. Yet offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell said he noticed during practice top two veteran backs Marshawn Lynch and Fred Jackson standing behind Brown and tutoring him on passprotection just before plays. Carroll said the Brown signing was to secure depth at the position, adding that Rawls has a “nasty … strain or bruise.” … Rawls and Lynch (normal Wednesday rest) did not practice.

the past two years. Avril is right on track to match his eight sacks from two seasons ago, while Bennett is on pace to blow past the 81⁄2 he had in 2013. “We’ve been really great here together,” Bennett said. “We’ve obviously been to the Super Bowl twice since we got here. We work well together. We’re great friends off the field, our wives are friends, so we understand how to play with each other, we know about rushing and we understand how to rush together, so it make us work well together.” At the start of games that means Avril rushing off the left side and Bennett rushing off the right. However, on passing downs Bennett tends to move inside, meaning the two often line up aside one another on the left, with Avril on the end and Bennett at tackle. “I think the way he lines up kind of helps me out as far as how wide he is,” Avril explained about when the two line up beside one another. “It kind of makes the guards become tackles, and they don’t like space. For me, sometimes the tackle wants to help out on him, so it gives me an advantage as a speed rusher.” Thanks to Bennett and Avril the Seahawks are tied for sixth in the NFL in sacks with 19 in their first 17 games. And they’ll continue to contribute in their contrasting styles. “I’m not going to change who I am because he’s so crazy,” Avril said. “But it’s fun. He keeps the locker room fun, he keeps the meeting rooms extremely fun. Sometimes I have to pull him back in and tell him to calm down a little bit, but he’s a great dude.”

Extra points Carroll said the Seahawks may have a full roster to chose from for Sunday’s game at Dallas. He already announced that cornerback Marcus Burley (thumb) and fullback Derrick Coleman (concussion) had returned to practice. Then Wednesday he added that defensive tackle Jordan Hill (quadriceps), defensive end Demarcus Dobbs (shoulder), linebacker Nick Moody (ankle) and center Patrick Lewis (ankle) would return to practice this week and that he expects them to be able to play this weekend. ... The one remaining question mark is running back Thomas Rawls, who suffered a calf strain/bruise in last Thursday’s game. Carroll said he was unsure of Rawls’ status for Sunday, and that running back Bryce Brown was signed Tuesday specifically because of the uncertainty surrounding Rawls. ... Dallas star receiver Dez Bryant returned to practice Wednesday in a limited capacity. Bryant has been out since the Cowboys’ season opener because of a broken foot, but his return to practice suggests there’s a possibility he may be able to play against the Seahawks.

PREP FOOTBALL: WEEK 9

Winner of Mariner-Snohomish game locks down a playoff spot By Aaron Lommers Herald Writer

Of the four games remaining in the Wesco 4A regular season, Friday’s contest between the Mariner Marauders and Snohomish Panthers has the most on the line. The winner likely will be the conference’s No. 3 seed going into next week’s quad-district playoffs, while the loser most likely will be the No. 4 seed. That scenario is contingent on the Monroe Bearcats (6-2, 4-2 in conference play) beating winless Mount Vernon (0-6, 0-8) on Friday, which would give the Bearcats the No. 2 spot behind top-seeded Lake Stevens (6-0, 8-0). If Mount Vernon upsets Monroe, the things get more complicated. The Mariner-Snohomish winner could finish as high as the No. 2 seed, while the loser could be tied with Monroe and Kamiak (4-4, 3-3) — if, that is, the Knights beat Cascade (1-7, 1-5) Friday night. A three-way tie for the final two playoff spots would require a Kansas tie-breaker, with two teams advancing to the postseason. Monroe can prevent such chaos by taking care of business against Mount Vernon. Mariner (4-4, 4-2) and Snohomish (4-4, 4-2) met in the final week of the regular season a year ago in a game that decided the final playoff spot from the Wesco 4A. The Marauders escaped with a 41-40 victory that clinched the No. 4 seed and eliminated the Panthers.

IAN TERRY / THE HERALD

Snohomish quarterback Kobe McDaniel (15) has thrown for 2,005 yards and 21 touchdowns this season. The senior is completing 62 percent of his passes.

Mariner enters Friday’s game against Snohomish having lost two straight Wesco 4A games after a 4-0 start to conference play. The Panthers began the season 0-4, losing nonleague games to Glacier Peak and Arlington before opening their Wesco 4A schedule with losses to Lake Stevens and Monroe. Since then, the

Panthers have reeled off four straight victories to put themselves in position to make the postseason for the first time under third-year head coach Kai Smalley. Aaron Lommers covers prep sports for The Herald. Follow him on Twitter at @aaronlommers and contact him at alommers@heraldnet.com.

It’s the third straight season the Timberwolves, who placed second at the 4A state tournament a year ago, have clinched at least a share of the league championship. The Timberwolves and Knights played a scoreless first half before Jackson senior midfielder Kristina Serres opened up the scoring in the 47th minute. Serres headed in a deflected ball from a free kick taken by junior defender Rikki Myers to give her team the lead. Senior Madison Cooley would later score the gamewinner in the 74th minute in similar fashion, taking care of a deflected ball off of a free kick by Myers. “Our free kick, the one we scored on twice, is kind of a non-organized free kick,” Kellerman said. “It’s kind of a chaos free kick, but that’s exactly what we want it to be. It’s hard to defend when you don’t exactly know when you’re going, you’re just trying to follow the ball. Rikki put in a great ball and it was just a matter of who really wanted it. Both of those goals were effort, not necessarily skill, but just effort.” Kamiak answered Jackson’s first goal in the 53rd minute the same way the Timberwolves got both of their goals. Senior forward

IAN TERRY / THE HERALD

Kamiak’s Tylor Adcock (20) and Jackson’s Madison Cooley (3) battle for a loose ball during a game at Kamiak High School on Wednesday. Jackson win 2-1.

Emele Chaddock put away a deflected free kick by junior forward Alexie Morris. It was a rough week for the Knights, who lost back-to-back games after starting the season 11-0-1 in league and 13-0-1 overall. “They’ve set out their goals to make it to state this year and I just don’t see them backing off,” Kamiak head coach Beth Stewart said. “Tonight, I just felt like that game could have gone either way. We outshot them. We had the run of the play in the first half, definitely. I think they can build off of how we played, not necessarily the score at the end.” Much of Wednesday night’s game was played in the middle of the field, but that didn’t keep it from being exciting. Kamiak and Jackson have been known

for their physical games over the past few seasons. “It’s just grueling and grinding,” Stewart said of the games between the two teams. “I think everybody is up for, but they all know what to expect. Everybody is giving their all on both sides. They’re fun to come be a part of, they’re stressful, but it’s always a good battle.” The Knights will be the No. 2 seed in the district tournament — which starts Saturday — meaning they get a first-round bye and an automatic berth in the semifinals. If they can get past their semifinal game, they likely will meet Jackson again in the district championship, something that excited Stewart’s players. “Then you’re going for the first seed into state,” Stewart said. “They’ll say bring it on.”

Sundews, or drosera, produce a sticky substance to trap prey. After an insect gets stuck, the leaves biomechanically fold around the insect, and it is eventually digested for its nitrogen-rich nutrients. But the plant also produces flowers that attract other insects, nonfatally, for pollination.

From creepy to downright dangerous, some plants are a perfect Halloween fit

SPOOKY PLANTS By William Hageman Chicago Tribune

Even plants can get into the spirit of Halloween. Kyle Martin sees it all the time. He’s a doctoral candidate in plant biology at Cornell University whose specialty is brood-site deception. That’s when a plant masks itself, sending misleading signals to fool a pollinator. In other words, when you can’t say it with flowers, say it with stench. “The flowers I study usually smell like rotting substrates, like fruit or carrion, to attract insects,” he says. It’s a horticultural twist on trick or treat. “A lot of flowers provide a treat, like a sweet-smelling treat or a nectar reward for the service of pollination,” Martin says. “But all the flowers I study are tricksters. They trick their pollinators and don’t give a treat back.” For example, Dracula orchids. Native to South America, they

tend to be purple or maroon and hairy, Martin says. “They mimic fungal fruiting bodies. They smell like mushrooms or other fruiting fungi. ... They attract flies looking for a spot to lay their eggs.” Once pollination is achieved, the rendezvous is over. The pollinator gets no treat, no sweet nectar as a reward. Many plants are a nice fit with Halloween — not to put in your yard but rather to shudder at and ogle from afar. Some are scarylooking. Some are ugly. Still others are just, well, ewww. Here’s a rundown of some of what’s out there:

Scary-looking Titan arum: Also known as the corpse flower, the titan arum (Amorphophallus titanum) has it all: It’s gigantic (up to 10 feet tall), it grows quickly, and it exudes a foul odor. Martin says it’s the scariest plant he has ever encountered. “Just looking at it; it’s this massive plant, taller than

a lot of us. (When it blooms) it smells like rotting meat. When I’m showing the flower to the public, even adults are wary to look into it. They don’t want to touch it.” Doll’s eyes: How’d you like to be in the woods and find a bush full of these watching you? Doll’s eyes (Actaea pachypoda), also known as white baneberry, is a native plant found in eastern North America. It grows up to 2 feet tall and produces the small, white, poisonous fruit that gives it its name. Nepenthes rajah: This endangered plant from Borneo boasts traps nearly the size of a football, says Devin Dotson, public affairs

and exhibits specialist at the U.S. Botanic Garden in Washington. “The lurid traps entice insects to a watery death, along with the occasional lizard or rat,” Dotson says. Interestingly, the same liquid welcomes an array of creatures resistant to the digestive juices, including mosquito larvae.

Dangerous Poison ivy: Jacob Burns, curator of herbaceous perennial plants at the Chicago Botanic Garden, says Toxicodendron radicans gets his vote for scariest plant. “Every part of the plant is toxic,” Burns says. “Urushiol

is the oil on it. It causes a longlasting rash on most humans. You don’t even have to touch the plant to get the rash, because that oil is so easy to get on your boots, your dog, the lawn mower. And that oil can remain on items for years.” Because it’s everywhere — dry areas, wet areas, roadsides, riverbanks, woods — it’s easy to come in contact with. Burns recalls the old rhyme “Leaves of three, let it be” to help identify this foliage fiend. Apples: Well, not what you’ll find in the store today. “The really, really old varieties of apples — I’m talking from 100 See SPOOKY, Page D3

Halloween celebrations date back to 1910 J

ack-o’-lanterns, ghosts, witches and trick or treating are all part of Halloween. But how did it start? There were similar celebrations dating back to ancient times but the modern holiday started about 1910. There was a Halloween Carnival party and a king and queen were chosen in 1904. The Dennison Co. started selling costumes, crepe paper and instructions for Halloween decorations by 1910. About 1920 paper lanterns and paper pumpkins turned into jacko’-lanterns became popular. The same type of stiff paper was used in Germany to make Halloween candy containers. The 1920s also saw the idea of trick or treating come into fashion. To get a treat of candy, the costumed visitors had to perform. Some of the 1930s jack-o’-lanterns were made of celluloid. And by the 1940s, hard plastic had arrived. Witches seem to have been

added to the holiday by the 1930s and the black dress, pointed hat and flying broom were important. The green face was probably inspired by the wicked witch in “The Wizard of Oz” movie, but witches are getting nicer and better looking at today’s celebrations. Could that be because nice witches starred in TV shows like “Bewitched”? And trick or treat bags didn’t appear before about 1948. Before that any plain paper bag or cloth sack was fine. Since 1900, toy makers have added to the holiday fun with games and toys using all the popular symbols. Save the trick-or-treat bags this year. They are becoming popular collectibles. Q: I have a bentwood and leather chair with a metal label that reads “Sno-Shu.” What can you tell me about the company that made it? A: “Sno-Shu” chairs were made by W.F. Tubbs Co., a snowshoe manufacturer in Norway, Maine.

INSIDE: Plant of Merit, 2

The chair seats and backs have rawhide webbing similar to the webbing in snowshoes. The company was in business from 1906 to 1939 and made snowshoes, dog sleds and chairs. Tubbs sold his business in 1923. American Fork and Hoe Co. was the owner in 1928. The company moved to Wellingford, Vermont in 1932 and continued to make Sno-Shu chairs for a few years. Q: I bought a Smith Corona “Classic 12” manual typewriter from the SCM factory in Groton, New York, in 1965. It came in the Trimline carrying case. I have the original booklet and warranty that came with it. I bought a new ribbon for it in 2004 and it’s still in excellent condition. What is the value? A: Smith Corona was formed by the merger of two typewriter manufacturers, L.C. Smith & Brothers Typewriter Co. and Corona. The companies merged in 1926 and the name was changed to Smith Corona, Inc., in

Living Smart, 2

1949. The Classic 12 was made in the 1960s. Smith Corona stopped making typewriters in 1998 but sold typewriters made in South Korea until 2009. The company is still in business, selling pressure sensitive labels and thermal transfer ribbons. Your typewriter could sell to someone who wants to use it. Value of your typewriter, about $30 to $50 for most, about $100 for mint in the case. Most are bought to use. Q: Can I use boiled linseed oil on my woven oak splint baskets? My dad’s aunt made them in the early 1900s. Some of the splints are starting to dry out and crack. How can I keep them from splitting more? A: Don’t use linseed oil or any other kind of oil, it can get sticky and will make the splints harder and darker. For routine care, dust the baskets with a feather duster or use the vacuum cleaner, but first wrap an old nylon stocking See KOVEL, Page D3

Good info flows from gutter pros

f your gutters are starting to fail and you aren’t sure whether to repair them or just replace them with new gutters, here are answers from three gutter experts to help you make the best decision.

Powell: If you see water coming out from behind the gutter, there’s something wrong.

How often should I clean my gutters?

Long: Screens don’t work as well because of the fuzzies from oak trees in the spring. Gutter hoods are expensive, but they make your gutters zero to little maintenance. Phillips: There are several different types, and we recommend the one that’s right for your situation. Powell: We recommend using steel powder-coated mesh guards.

Mike Long, manager at Frazier Roofing & Guttering Co. in Arlington, Texas: It should be more than once a year. Jason Phillips, owner of Phillips Painting, Roofing & Gutters in Plano, Texas: Annually, at a minimum. If you have a lot of trees, several times a year. Jerry Powell, owner of All-Tech’s Installations in North Richland Hills, Texas: At the minimum, they need to be checked and cleaned in the spring and fall.

What are the signs I need to repair or replace my gutters? Long: Look for leaks in corners, staining from water or overflow, or rust in steel gutters. They should hang level, so if your gutters are turning down more toward the front, something needs to be done. Phillips: With galvanized steel gutters, you’ll start seeing rust. If the gutters aren’t secured well, they’ll start sagging. Also, look for gutter joints pulling apart or overflowing during rain.

Do you recommend gutter guards, screens or covers?

How long will new gutters last? Long: If you maintain aluminum gutters, they can last almost forever. Clean them, re-secure the fasteners and reseal the corners and end caps. Phillips: We use stainless aluminum, and the materials come with a lifetime warranty. Keep them cleaned out, put leaf guards on, and get them adjusted from time to time. Powell: Aluminum gutters should last a lifetime. Just keep them clean and sometimes, because of settling of the house, they may need to be raised or lowered.

GREAT PLANT PICK WHAT: Fuchsia “Peter Pan” In the maritime Pacific Northwest climate, this hardy fuchsia can be planted either in the ground or in a container. “Peter Pan” blooms from early spring until the first frost, and belongs to a plant category that bridges the seasons, due to its long bloom cycle. Hardy fuchsias that are planted in the ground need full sun in the Pacific Northwest, and a weekly watering. They also recommend extra food, water and winter protection for fuchsias in containers. SUN OR SHADE: In the ground, it needs full sun, while containerized plants need a dappled shady spot in order to protect the roots. SIZE: Mature height is 21⁄2 feet with a spread of 2 feet.

Is your home ready for the winter?

1423900

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

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

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

Getting your garden bed ready for winter F

years ago — the seeds are laced with cyanide,” says Karl Niklas, the Liberty Hyde Bailey professor in the section of plant biology at Cornell University. “They can kill you. Of course, people don’t eat the core of the apple, but still. (In) the new cultivars, what we find today in grocery stores, that intensity of poison has been bred out.” Stinging nettle: Found in North and South America, Europe and Asia, the nettles plant (Urtica dioica) has hollow stinging hairs on its leaves and stems. On contact, they inject chemicals that produce a stinging sensation. “Anyone who has walked through a patch of stinging nettles doesn’t do it again,” says Niklas.

Creepy Bat flower: Niklas has been teaching for 37 years, and when he says something is “really creepy looking,” you listen. This plant is native to Southeast Asia. Its bloom is black — unusual for a flower — and up to a foot across, with “whiskers” as long as 2 feet. And the flower seems to hover almost menacingly above the plant’s green leaves. Aristolochia: This plant, which has 500 varieties (its members are often called Dutchman’s pipe and pipevine), captures and imprisons pollinators

around the nozzle. You can clean the splints by blotting with a damp white cotton cloth. Let your baskets share the bathroom with you when you take a shower. The hot, moist air is good for the basket. Splint baskets benefit from a light shower or misting once or twice a year, but don’t soak the splint. Let the basket dry completely in a spot away from direct sunlight. Some sources recommend soaking the baskets in cool water for

before releasing them. “They tend to be very large, and they have this surface that looks like rotting meat, really,” Martin says. “Once the pollinators are attracted to Aristolochia flowers, by a combination of scent and visual display, they are directed through a tube into the chamber which houses the plant’s reproductive organs. Downward facing hairs line the tube, which prevents the insects from leaving once they have entered the chamber. Any Aristolochia pollen that was on the insect body is passively deposited on the female parts of the flower on the first day while the female parts are receptive. The insect is held captive overnight until the male part of the flower matures and showers pollen on the captured insects. Once this happens, the hairs on the inside of the tube wilt and the insects are released. If the insects are tricked again by another Aristolochia flower, then cross-pollination will occur.”

Ewwww Prairie dodder: This parasitic vine (Cuscuta) has a “creepy, alien look,” Burns says. Like most other parasitic plants, it doesn’t have

graft union from a really ugly winter. A couple of bucks for mulch is a small price to pay for ensuring that your roses are going to survive the winter. Perennials. When I think of perennials, I tend to put them into two camps: sticks and mushers. The mushers are the ones, like hostas, that mush to the ground at the first frost. These are easy to clean up at that point. Sticks are the ones, like asters, that turn brown but remain woody. Cut them halfway back to the ground and in the spring, as the new growth emerges from the base, remove the rest of the old growth. There is also a

Anyone who has walked through a patch of stinging nettles doesn’t do it again. foliage. “They don’t need leaves, don’t need chlorophyll, because they’re sucking the life out of other plants. It’s an orange twining vine that lacks leaves, thus needing zero water.” The vine can grow to 7 feet before it strangles and smothers the host plants. It’s also known as devil’s guts, strangleweed and witch’s hair. Cobra lily: Darlingtonia californica puts up tall green pitchers with hollow, inflated tops, each bearing a striking resemblance to a cobra poised to strike, Dotson says. “A maroon landing pad shaped like a forked tongue completes the picture and offers a place for its insect victims to perch before they fall to their deaths,” he says. The carnivorous plant lives only in the wet meadows of coastal California and Oregon. Bleeding tooth fungus: The name says it all. The fruit secretes a red liquid that resembles blood. With spikes and a bitter taste that makes it inedible, this fungus (Hydnellum peckii) belongs on any scary plant (or fungus) list. It is found in North America and Europe, though in recent years it has been discovered in Iran and Korea. Its goal is to take over the world.

Q: What is a fore-edge book? A: The fore edge of a book is the edge opposite the spine. In a fore-edge book, the edges of the pages are painted or gilded to make a picture when the book is closed. Fore-edge paintings may have been done as early as the 10th century. In the 17th century, artists began painting slightly inside the outside edge of the page so the picture was only visible when the pages were fanned

After cleaning up the perennial beds, broadcast some lime and spread an inch of fresh compost over the soil to control weeds and insulate the ground from hard freezes.

The fact is, there are still plants out there that are wide awake and, believe it or not, some plants that react to winter with renewed energy.

Touchy sibling doesn’t want sister’s touch

DAILY CROSSWORD

Adapted from a recent online discussion. Dear Carolyn: Our family has always hugged and snuggled. In the last few years, my older daughter, 20, has not been nice in saying, “Don’t touch me,” when her younger sister snuggles up to her. Older daughter doesn’t seem to mind other people’s attention and frequently comes up and snuggles with me — on her own terms of course. I worry that it’s a sibling thing, and I don’t like her being what I perceive as mean to her younger sister. I try to acknowledge that it’s permitted and reasonable to reject unwanted touches, but also say that since her sister is family, perhaps she should say it nicer than “don’t touch me” without explanation. Her younger sister is very hurt. — Anonymous I can see being hurt, but I also hope the younger sister is old enough and rational enough just to stop trying to snuggle this sister, even if she never gets an adequate explanation for the rejections. I do think you’re right to validate the prerogative to reject unwanted touches and the need for kindness, but have you talked to your older daughter about what’s going on in general?

The two of them will need to work this out, but you can provide steady insistence on civil communication. Dear Carolyn: I’m in my early 30s. I know there are a lot of issues I need to work on, namely poor self-esteem, mistrust, fear of abandonment, etc. I am seeking help through therapy, and I’m actually not very interested in dating, but is it a smart idea to even try?

Define “fixed.” We all have our stuff. When you feel you have a grasp of your issues — what unhealthy choices you tend to make, how you can anticipate and redirect yourself — then there’s no reason you can’t be a good partner. You seem to see dating, though, as an item on a chore list instead of a basic way of living. With basic living, you take care of yourself, work at a vocation, fill your life with things you enjoy, and if you happen to meet someone you like who likes you back, then you spend extra time with that person. With dating as to-do list item, you have your life ... over here, and you have this other thing, “dating,” as a series of steps you undertake to accomplish a certain thing. I don’t recommend such choredating — not while you’re sorting things out, and not ever. Just figure yourself out, figure out what makes sense for you, and be open to kind people you meet on your way. If you eventually find yourself wanting more, then that’s your sign to make a more deliberate effort. Till then, your current “not very interested” status is permission enough to focus on getting stronger. That’s good stuff on its own.

Talk to granddaughter about stealing from you

THE NEW YORK TIMES CROSSWORD PUZZLE

Dear Abby: I caught my 12-year-old granddaughter stealing. She took one of my favorite hair products, which isn’t a big deal, but I’m torn over how to approach her and if I should inform her parents. There was another possible theft once before when she visited me. Some makeup blush disappeared. I dismissed it, but now I have concerns. How should I handle this? I love her unconditionally, but this needs to be addressed and I don’t know how. I’m prepared that she might deny my accusation. Then what? — Alarmed In Rhode Island Dear Alarmed: Tell your granddaughter that you enjoy having her visit, but you noticed that several items had disappeared after she stayed with you. Ask her if she took them. Regardless of how she responds, tell her that if she wants to use something of yours, before she does, she should ask permission. If it happens after that, discuss it with her parents then. Dear Abby: My brother is a recovering heroin addict. He stayed clean for almost a year until a few months ago, when he relapsed. He hasn’t used again since his slip and continues to go to outpatient treatment. My boyfriend, whom I recently moved in with, doesn’t want him to come to the house. He says it’s to protect “his nest,” and I understand why. I have tried talking with him about it because I feel that I can’t have any other family members over, but that doesn’t seem to matter to him. My brother heard he isn’t welcome and I feel absolutely terrible. If my boyfriend can’t accept my family, how is this relationship supposed to last? But another part of

DEAR ABBY me wonders if his feelings are justified, and perhaps I have been too accepting of all the mistakes and grief my brother has caused my family and me. — Sad Sister In Ohio Dear Sad Sister: If your brother has stolen from the family in order to feed his habit, your boyfriend has a valid point in not wanting him in the house. His reaction is intelligent. However, the ban should not extend to your entire family, and this is something you need to clarify. If your boyfriend’s objective is to isolate you from all of your relatives, it’s a red flag that shouldn’t be ignored. Dear Abby: My daughter is marrying a wonderful young man who not only loves her, but also her 7-month-old daughter, who is not his. My question is one of etiquette. During the wedding ceremony, if my granddaughter starts crying, should I get up and leave with her? She’s a little Mama’s girl and might start to fuss. I’d hate to miss my daughter’s wedding, but don’t want it to be ruined for her guests. What is the proper thing to do? — Bride’s Mom On the East Coast Dear Bride’s Mom: The proper thing to do is to ask your daughter — well in advance of the wedding — what SHE would like done in the event that her daughter starts crying or acting up during the ceremony.

Acerbic Gervais will host Golden Globes

Suddenly chummy Prince invites fans to party with him

After swearing he would never host the Golden Globe Awards ricky again, Gervais Ricky Gervais has agreed to emcee the telecast for the fourth time in January. The British comedian hosted the show for three consecutive years from 2010 to 2012 before Amy Poehler and Tina Fey took over the duties through this year. That Gervais would take on the role again comes as somewhat of a surprise, given his public assertion on his blog that he’d told his agent “to never let me be persuaded to (host) again.” Poehler and Fey were pretty much universally beloved as a hosting duo, but Gervais proved to be more polarizing. His barbed sense of humor had him making a risque double entendre involving Jodie Foster’s sexuality and her movie “The Beaver.” He also said he had to help Hollywood Foreign Press Association President Philip Berk “off the toilet and pop his teeth in.” The Golden Globes are set for Jan. 10. Los Angeles Times

CHANHASSEN, Minn. — Prince seems to be shedding his reclusive reputation and becoming a party animal. In recent weeks the star has hosted late-night jam sessions in which hundreds of fans descended on suburban Paisley Park Studios on Saturday night, paying $10 each to hear Prince and his backing band raise the roof until 3 a.m. “Y’all want to party with me?” Prince asks the crowd at one point. So why the new openness? Prince, of course, isn’t talking. “Why is he so friendly? Why is he open now? He’s inviting strangers into his house. Why? Why? What’s the reason? Let’s ask everyone else besides him,” Prince — wearing a purple tunic and large gold chain — teased from the darkened stage as he blasted through a funky mix that included oldies by Bill Withers and Sly and the Family Stone and his own songs (“Alphabet St.,” “Hot Thing”). Since Prince wasn’t giving interviews that night (he rarely does), here’s what fans had to say: “I think he’s been open for a while,” said Gina Meier, 48, of Richfield, seeing her seventh Prince performance at Paisley Park. “He’s done Paisley Park stuff for years.

Fans browsed through Prince T-shirts at the merchandise booth in the lobby, adorned by a large heart-shaped mirror and another mirror with the word “Love.” An ATM machine was nearby. For $40, fans could take a “mini-tour” of Paisley Park, where Prince’s gold records are on the walls and the purple motorcycle he rode in his 1984 breakout movie, “Purple Rain,” is on display.

Anderson said Prince’s music “just got with a groove and it just sucks you in. It’s mesmerizing.” “Some people think that ‘Purple Rain’ is his best music,” Anderson said. “I just love what he’s doing now.” Hill, a 31-year-old California native, had told an interviewer that working with Prince would be her “dream collaboration.” Shortly afterward, she got the call from Prince. “It’s been incredible,” Hill told The Associated Press in the Paisley Park studio where her album was recorded — old-school analog — on 2-inch tape. Jam sessions at Paisley Park led to the album, Hill said, citing the studio’s “very free-spirited environment.” She said Prince “wants to share with the world what goes on here.” “He feels he wants to share with everyone,” Hill said of Prince’s recent open houses.
