EVERETT — It’ll cost more in 2016 to reclaim cats or dogs lost in most parts of Snohomish County. The Everett animal shelter reviews rates annually, and upped the amount by $30 for next year. What people pay to reclaim pets is set individually by Snohomish County and a dozen other jurisdictions that contract with the city for shelter services. “This is the fee that’s charged to owners on redemption,” said Vicki Lubrin, manager of Snohomish County’s licensing and animal control services. “It’s for the care of the animal while it’s at the animal shelter. That fee covers for known owners up to 10 days.” For stray cats and dogs from unincorporated areas, the 2016

fee will be $195, compared to $165 in 2015. If a cat or dog is impounded by county animal control staff, the 2016 fee will be $375, compared to $340 in 2015. That amount also includes the animal control officer’s time and transport costs. “Our ordinance requires us to recoup our costs from known

owners, when possible,” Lubrin said. Also contracting with Everett for shelter services are: Bothell, Gold Bar, Granite Falls, Index, Lake Stevens, Lynnwood, Marysville, Mill Creek, Monroe, the city of Snohomish, Stanwood and the Tulalip Tribes. Fees charged for animals from those areas differ.

“Even with that, it’s not going to fully cover our cost of operations,” Everett city spokeswoman Meghan Pembroke said. The county chipped in $2.5 million of the $6.2 million construction costs for shelter on 333 Smith Island Road. The facility opened in 2009. Fees are lower for Everett residents: $55 plus a $15 per-day boarding fee. Additional charges apply for licenses and if an officer brings in the animal. The shelter receives roughly an equal number of cats and dogs. Of the 5,399 animals brought in during 2014, 2,621 were cats and 2,539 dogs, shelter director Glynis Frederiksen said. There were 239 other types of critters. Animals from unincorporated areas accounted for a little over a third of the total. Noah Haglund: 425-339-3465; nhaglund@heraldnet.com. Twitter: @NWhaglund.

work set for 2016 By Melissa Slager Herald Writer
The new Broadway Bridge in Everett re-opened to traffic Dec. 8. The former span was 102 years old and had weight restrictions the last eight months of its use. The new bridge was the highlight of a relatively quiet year of bridge work in Snohomish County that largely focused on maintenance and repairs. Shovels are getting prepped for a busier 2016. In Brier, an innocuous yet welltrafficked bridge that has had weight restrictions for several years will be replaced. Near Granite Falls, a one-lane bridge on 64th Street NE that connects horse pasture with the pavement of Highway 92 will be replaced, while a more major project on the Mountain Loop Highway awaits federal help. And in Everett, two pedestrian bridges will get attention. Repair work on the Howarth Park pedestrian bridge will go to bid in early 2016, with a planned re-opening in time for summer beach fun. Work also is scheduled to start on a much-anticipated Grand Avenue Park pedestrian bridge that will link north Everett to the waterfront. In a world where funding for transportation projects often is elusive, bridge work offers a relatively bright spot. “Washington’s done a reasonably good job of trying to catch up on the bottom tier of structurally deficient bridges. I think statewide we’ve made some good gains over the last decade or so,” said Ryan Sass, engineer for the city of Everett. Sometimes it can take a bit longer to get funding than is desired, said Darrell Ash, Snohomish County’s bridge engineer. But the county has been largely successful in getting the federal Highway Bridge Replacement and Rehabilitation grants that typically cover 80 percent of such project costs. The federal bridge funds won’t be enough to check off the county’s biggest bridge wish-list item though. The 81-year-old Granite Falls Bridge 102 spans the See BRIDGES, Page A2

Plans call for building a new bridge just downstream that is double the current bridge’s width. The county applied for a $16 million federal TIGER grant, which would have covered the bulk of the $22 million total project costs. But it was passed over. The county will get the project prepped for the big-ticket work and apply again in 2016. “In this current funding climate, projects that are construction ready have a much higher success rate,” said Catherine Higgins, a Public Works spokeswoman.

bulk of work orders. Between 1994 and 2014, 65 bridges were replaced or rebuilt. At the end of 2014, there were 13 county-owned bridges still listed as “structurally deficient,” according to Snohomish County Public Works’ annual Bridge Report. That’s 6.5 percent of all bridges the county oversees. Structurally deficient means that a bridge requires repair or replacement of a certain component. It doesn’t imply that the bridge is in danger of collapse or unsafe to the travelling public. Among them, Pilchuck River Bridge 581 is in line for a $4.5 million replacement in 2016. The 55-year-old, one-lane bridge connects a Lochsloy agricultural area off Highway 92. The bridge is prone to flash-flooding and has weight restrictions.

than 9,700 vehicles per day. Pilings for the new bridge will be taken out of the creek, and the new bridge will be wide enough to accommodate bike paths and sidewalks. Statewide, more than 1 in 10 bridges are at least 75 years old. It would cost an estimated $2.3 billion to replace just the 310 stateowned bridges in that mix.
For now, five state bridges are under contract for replacement. Another 29 are in need of a major overhaul, including four in Snohomish County. One of those projects, the 88-year-old Snohomish River Bridge on Highway 9, is inching forward with design work expected in 2019. The state also eyes
improvements aimed at helping bridges better withstand earthquakes and flooding or scouring. Which brings up the other way bridge projects often get done: in an emergency. As 2015 draws to a close, work continues on shoring up a Skykomisharea bridge on U.S. 2 that was damaged by erosion in the Nov. 17 storm.

up with the alleged theft. It was a similar situation about 30 minutes later along Webster Way. The woman in that case had dozens of packages and pieces of mail from multiple neighborhoods, Davis said. Both women were arrested.

Edmonds gets creative recruiting new police By Rikki King Herald Writer
EDMONDS — The videos combine upbeat music, scenic views and candid interviews with Edmonds officers. The police department in Edmonds — Snohomish County’s third largest city — is bracing for a wave of retirements in the coming years, Sgt. Josh McClure said. In the business of recruiting officers, social media is still new thinking. “We’re preparing for the future,” he said. The department earlier this month posted three new
recruitment videos on YouTube. There’s a nice back story to that effort. The production and editing were donated by an Edmonds man whose job is creating training videos for his company. Scott Pinzon, 60, works for the EMC Corporation, a Fortune 500 company that encourages employees to use work time each year for a charitable cause. He was joined by a video crew. The Edmonds Police Department has more than 50 officers. Their median age is 48 — five years short of potential retirement. The department is seeking new police officers and also those
who have worked in other agencies, McClure said. He wants to get across to candidates that Edmonds is a waterfront community, but it’s not as small as they might think. They need people who want to work in Edmonds, where police work sometimes means a major operation and other times investigating a bicycle theft. “In today’s law enforcement culture, we’re looking for people with really good customer service skills,” McClure said. “That is 90 percent of our job, going out and being customer service representatives for our city. It’s not about
car chases.” Video production of similar quality would have cost thousands of dollars out-ofpocket, he said. “We didn’t have anything in the budget for that,” he said. Pinzon and the crew used all of their own equipment, including a drone fitted with a camera. “We put officers in their comfort zone, in their patrol cars, and we just asked questions of the officers as they drove down the road, and we got their honest answers,” McClure said. “There was no rehearsal.” About a year earlier, Pinzon had
found out that Lynnwood police needed a recruitment video, he said. Helping that department was a great experience for him, and a chance to serve within his community. The team also helped Lynnwood with fundraiser videos for the police dog program, said Lisa Wellington, who works in crime prevention “We thought a recruitment video would be a cool thing to have,” she said. “It was super fun to work with them. They were just awesome.” Rikki King: 425-339-3449; rking@heraldnet.com.

Young Life Club welcomes people with special needs By Diana Hefley Herald Writer
EVERETT — It was a packed house on a rainy Saturday evening and stayed that way from the first act until the last of the applause filled the auditorium. The young people on stage beamed. Some waved at their
parents, siblings and friends. Others rushed behind the velvet curtain after taking a quick bow. There were plenty of knockknock jokes that elicited chuckles (and some groans). The musical numbers brought people to their feet, and the audience sang along to Neal Diamond’s “Sweet Caroline,” and the theme song to
Disney’s popular movie, “Frozen.” Another musical number emptied seats as some in the audience and the high school volunteer leaders joined in to dance on stage. The annual talent show is a favorite among members of the Snohomish County Young Life Capernaum. It gives young
people a moment to feel good about themselves and it challenges some to do something new. “Our kids love to perform. They love to sing. They love to dance. They really want to shine and this gives them a safe, loving place See TALENT, Page A9

survey says
MARYSVILLE — The Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office is turning to social media to reconnect people with their stolen property. The move came after a bust at a Marysville motel Dec. 16. A 40-year-old man was found with a room full of stolen goods. He is being investigated on suspicion of identity theft and forgery,
sheriff’s spokeswoman Shari Ireton said. He was booked into the Marysville jail, and charges are expected after detectives wrap up the case. The investigators are with the North Snohomish County Property Crimes Unit, which includes sheriff’s detectives. Last week, they created an account on Instagram, a social media outlet where people share photos from their cellphones.
Light-rail drama “The Godfather,” “The Lord of the Rings,” “The Hangover.” There’s nothing like a good trilogy. Here in the Puget Sound area, we are in the midst of our own epic journey with light rail: the Sound Transit saga. In Part 1, a low-budget dark comedy, downtown Seattle and SeaTac eventually hooked up after some cringe-worthy early shenanigans. Part 2 is the dramatic blockbuster that’s now playing out, extending light rail south to Federal Way, east to Bellevue, and — spoiler alert — north to Lynnwood over the next several years.
The Instagram account, @snocosheriff, features pictures of some of the recovered items, including electronics, clothes, jewelry, toys, tools, keys and even horns from cattle. More than 200 people are following the account. Returning items helps people feel safer again, detective Glen DeWitt said in a news release. The property crimes unit is based in Marysville and focuses on burglary, theft, fraud and the
Now, Sound Transit wants to complete the trilogy with Part 3, coming to a ballot box near you next fall. Part 3 would be a sprawling 15- to 25-year adventure extending light rail to Everett and Tacoma. One of its more hotly debated points is whether to follow a cheaper route up I-5 to downtown Everett or meander west toward Paine Field and a certain aircraft manufacturer. The latter option would serve more riders, but cost an extra $2 billion, add years to the project and lengthen the eventual Everett-Seattle commute. In our latest poll at HeraldNet.com, we asked whether you’d support the plan, which could cost about $200 per

resident per year. The result was a pretty even split among four options. Thirty percent were a flat “yes”; 25 percent were a flat “no”; 25 percent said “only if it goes to Boeing”; and 20 percent said “only if it’s the cheaper option.” Everett Mayor Ray Stephanson and the Snohomish County folks on the Sound Transit board say the cheaper option would be a horror show because it would bypass the state’s biggest job center. Here’s an idea: If linking light rail to Boeing is crucial, what if the company chipped in to help build it? Now that would make Sound Transit 3 a fantasy.

EDMONDS — Local Boy Scouts soon will be canvasing neighborhoods for annual tree recycling fundraisers. Each troop organizes its service independently, though most offer curbside pick-up Jan. 2 for a suggested donation of $10 or more. Others offer drop-off locations, or both services. Donations go a long way to helping Scouts attend camps, leadership classes and other outings. “As a parent it is awesome, because camps are not always cheap,” said Mark Blanchard, a parent with Boy Scout Troop 312 of Edmonds. Troop 312 offers drop-off services 8:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m. Jan. 2 and 3. This year the troop’s southern drop-off location is being moved to an empty lot at 9622 Edmonds Way, next to the Kwick N’ Kleen Carwash. The northern drop-off remains at the QFC parking lot at 196th Street SW and 76th Avenue W. You can find the details of Troop 312’s event and many other Snohomish County troops at www.dryneedles.com. Not all troops are listed on the interactive map, however. In Arlington, Boy Scout Troop 29 will collect trees at Legion Park starting Dec. 31, and concluding at 2 p.m. Jan. 2. Curbside pickup in certain neighborhoods also will be offered Jan. 2. Free tree recycling also is offered in Everett by Everett Community College and Cedar Grove. Everett Community College will recycle trees free Jan. 4-29. Drop off trees between 7:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. weekdays at Parking Lot F on the campus at 2000 Tower St. The college turns the trees into woodchips that it then uses for campus flower beds and mulch projects. Cedar Grove offers free Christmas tree recycling to Everett and Marysville city residents (one per household; additional trees are $5 each). Bring trees Dec. 28-Jan. 8 to the Everett composting facility, 3260 36th Place NE. A driver’s license or other ID showing your address is required. For all the recycling programs, trees must be free of decorations, tinsel and other nonbiodegradable materials. No flocked trees are accepted.

CIA responds to UW student’s lawsuit over Salvadoran documents Associated Press SEATTLE — The CIA says it is not wrongfully withholding documents related to the Salvadoran civil war. The agency filed its
response Wednesday to a lawsuit brought by University of Washington law student Mina Manuchehri, a fellow at the university’s Center for Human Rights. Under the Freedom
of Information Act, she sought documents related to retired Salvadoran Army Col. Sigifredo Ochoa Perez, who is under criminal investigation in his own country for alleged
involvement in the killings of civilians during the civil war in the 1980s. She also requested records regarding UCLA professor Philippe Bourgois, who survived a massacre there.
Carbon tax initiative to be on state ballot Associated Press SEATTLE — Sponsors of a Washington state initiative to tax carbon emissions have decided to put it on the ballot, despite a competing climate proposal. The Seattle Times

be a revenue-neutral approach. The proposal would add a $25 per ton fee on fossil fuels. An alternative proposal from the Alliance for Clean Jobs and Energy would institute a carbon fee to raise money to pay

The News Tribune reported Rocelle Harris, 29, of Renton, was charged Monday in connection to the Dec. 17 crash that killed Samantha Agee, 51, and her daughter, Everlean McMillan, 31, both of Puyallup. Washington State Patrol had received a report that a disabled car with its hazard lights on was blocking a northbound lane on I-5 just minutes before the crash. Charging documents say Harris said she didn’t see the Honda and told a trooper she had drank hours before the crash. Her blood alcohol level tested above the legal limit.

Heel Pain?
Plantar fasciitis (pronounced PLAN-tar fashee-EYE-tis), the most common cause of heel pain, is a localized inflammation of the plantar fascia. Patients with plantar fasciitis describe an ache localized to the inside part of the heel. The typical clinical presentation is pain after rest, most notably occuring with the first few steps in the morning and toward the end of the day, especially after lots of walking or standing.

important no one else lose their child. “I do not want this to ever happen to another parent, another child, ever again. I don’t want this to happen to anyone else,” she told the RegisterGuard in 2013. The suit names PeaceHealth Sacred Heart Medical Center at RiverBend in Springfield, Drs. William Miller and Mary McKee, Eugene Emergency Physicians, Oregon Medical Group, and 10 unnamed others as defendants. RiverBend spokeswoman Monique Danziger says the hospital takes patient safety very seriously. “Our thoughts and prayers are with the family during this difficult time,” Danziger said Wednesday. “PeaceHealth takes patient safety very seriously. We have a strong record of adherence to national standards, and participate in voluntary surveys of our quality and safety standards every year.” According to the lawsuit, Ronan had been suffering from flu-like symptoms for three days when he woke with a 104.7 degree fever Dec. 23, 2013. His primary care doctor, McKee, diagnosed Ronan with the coup and gave him a prescription for a steroid to help open his airways. He improved slightly, but on Christmas Eve once again was having a hard time breathing. His parents took him to the emergency room where Miller listened to his lungs before getting an X-ray of Ronan’s chest and then discharged him from the emergency room, according to the suit. At dinner the next day, Ronan collapsed. He was taken to Riverbend and later transferred to Oregon Health & Science University’s Pediatric Intensive Care Unit in Portland by ambulance, the suit says. The lawsuit alleges that McKee and Miller failed to properly diagnose or hospitalize Ronan, and failed to exercise reasonable prudence.

737 emergency shakes up Christmas fliers San Jose Mercury News OAKLAND, Calif. — The Southwest Airlines flight attendants putting on reindeer antlers and passing out pretzels and peanuts to distract the passengers from the possibility of a crash landing Wednesday weren’t enough to calm Ashley Stasio. The jolt, sparks and grinding noise passengers experienced after taking off from Oakland airport on one of the busiest holiday flying days of the year had her expecting the worst. And the Boeing 737 pilot’s announcement that there was trouble with the landing gear confirmed it. “Landing gear issues? That’s bad,” said Stasio, 34, an account executive at a San Francisco tech company. “I thought I was going to die.” But for the next four hours, as the pilot circled above California’s Central Valley to burn off fuel, the frustration of holiday travel balanced out with a deep sigh of relief when the plane landed safely in Oakland — just where it took off.

Southwest Airlines Flight 2547, a Boeing 737, makes an emergency landing in Oakland on Wednesday.
If this is it, have I fulfilled everything I wanted to do? JANIE HAR / ASSOCIATED PRESS
Southwest Airlines passenger Ashley Stasio speaks to reporters after her flight landed at Oakland International Airport in California on Wednesday.
Not all the passengers on Southwest Flight 2547 were so traumatized. Each of the 139 passengers and crew brought their own personality to the drama. Jeffrey Atkins thanked the flight crew for a safe landing, tweeting that “the best emergencies are the uneventful and boring ones.” Just after the plane took
off from Oakland International at 6 a.m., bound for Chicago, the passengers heard a loud, strange metal-on-metal grinding noise as the landing gear attempted to retract. Sparks flew outside the window. The plane jolted. The pilot’s voice crackled through the cabin. There was a problem, he said. They were heading
back to Oakland. At first, rumors circulated that storms in Chicago were to blame for a return to Oakland, nothing more. But when the pilot came out of the cockpit to tell the passengers that they had to unload fuel to make an emergency landing, the atmosphere changed quickly. Passengers started to

panic, Stasio said. No one was screaming, but fear and tears filled the fuselage. “I’m a little scared of flying as it is,” Stasio said. Sitting in the window seat on the other side of her was Stephanie Sult, 28, also from San Francisco. In her black-checked wool scarf framing her blond hair, she was ready to visit her family in the Chicago area. She tried to lose herself in the second “Serial” podcast on her headset to block out dark thoughts. But like most of the passengers, she was quickly sending strings of text messages to her boyfriend. He texted her back, sending her photos of their new Cavalier King Charles puppy named Charlie to make her feel better. Stasio, however, grappled with whether to call her mother. “I don’t want her to panic for four hours,” Stasio said. “I couldn’t do it to her.” So she thought about her own life: “If this is it, have I fulfilled everything I wanted to do?” She composed a text to her parents, telling them how much they meant to her, how much she loved them, but didn’t send it. She preferred to “roll the dice and say I’m going to be OK.” Stasio is usually the one who needs comforting, but she stepped into a new role as comforter when the woman sitting in the aisle seat next to her looked her in the eyes and said, “We’re NOT going to be OK.” “I’m an anxious person but I thought I’d be calm for
her,” Stasio said. Sult, in the window seat, did the same. Stasio and Sult talked to each other about their families, their fears. Just after 10 a.m., the pilot flew the plane low past the air traffic controllers to confirm the landing gear was in its proper place. The flight attendants told the passengers to prepare for an emergency landing. The woman in the aisle seat cried. Stasio and Sult, who had just met four hours earlier, closed their eyes and held hands tightly. And finally, the plane touched down. Softly. Cheers and applause rumbled through the cabin as fire crews and police waited on the runway “We were all crying,” Stasio said. Southwest Airlines, with one of the best safety records in the industry, offered new flights for everyone. Stasio and Sult decided to wait a day, giving them time to decompress from their ordeal. They said goodbye to each other, but bonded by their frantic ordeal, they exchanged phone numbers. Stasio didn’t even consider getting on another plane Wednesday, like most of the other passengers did, to complete her holiday journey to Pittsburgh. As Stasio and Sult descended the escalator toward baggage claim, they were greeted by throngs of reporters and camera crews. “I’m going home,” Stasio said, “and having a cocktail.”
60 are charged in terrorism crimes The Washington Post WASHINGTON — The Justice Department has charged at least 60 individuals this year with terrorism-related crimes, an unprecedented number that officials attribute to a heightened threat from the Islamic State and the influence of social media on potential recruits. Last week alone, prosecutors charged three people and convicted two others on terrorismlinked charges. One of those charged was Enrique Marquez Jr., a friend and neighbor of Syed Rizwan Farook, the male gunman who was killed in a firefight with police in the aftermath of the San Bernardino, California, shooting rampage this month. That terrorist attack killed 14 people. A second was Mohamed Elshinawy, a Maryland man accused of receiving at least $8,700 from the Islamic State overseas and planning to use the money to carry out attacks in the United States. He told prosecutors that a childhood friend had connected him through social media with an Islamic State operative. The third was Jalil Aziz, a Pennsylvania man who was arrested for allegedly
providing material support to the Islamic State, by spreading its propaganda on social media and for seeking to help the group’s supporters travel to Syria to fight. Aziz also encouraged other Islamic State supporters he communicated with to use U.S.-based encrypted messaging applications, prosecutors said. “The common connection we’re seeing is — in almost every case — a tie to social media,” John Carlin, assistant attorney general for national security said last month. He also pointed out that many of the cases involve young people, who are at ease building relationships online. More than 55 percent of those charged are under 25 years old. Most troubling, Carlin said, about onethird are 21 or younger. “That’s not the same age demographic that we saw with al-Qaida,” he said. Islamic State supporters inside the United States, inspired by its leaders’ calls to attack where they reside, are increasingly plotting or attempting to carry out attacks domestically, officials said. In 2015 alone, prosecutors brought more than 15 cases against such individuals.

Indian PM visits Pakistan Los Angeles Times ISLAMABAD — With a surprise visit to Pakistan, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday breathed new life into a long-troubled relationship. Weeks before the reopening of high-level talks between the nuclear-armed rivals, Modi became the first Indian prime minister in more than a decade to set foot in Pakistan. Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif embraced Modi upon his arrival in Lahore. The warm welcome belied the tensions between the two countries that have worsened in the 19 months since Modi came to power. His conservative government signaled a more muscular Indian foreign policy, but it thus far had not shown a fresh approach to achieving peace with Pakistan. The countries, which were split in 1947 upon independence from Britain, have

fought four wars and countless minor skirmishes, while maintaining one of the most heavily militarized borders in the world. In recent months, each side has accused the other’s military of firing across the border without provocation. The conflict has had broader implications as the rivals
jockey for influence elsewhere in South Asia, particularly in Afghanistan. Friday’s meeting, however, was the latest in a recent series of signs of potentially thawing relations. The fact that Modi stopped in Pakistan after an official visit to Kabul, where he helped open
a new, Indian-constructed Parliament building, was seen as significant because Pakistan has often chafed at Indian engagement in Afghanistan. Modi and Sharif also had a brief encounter last month on the sidelines of the United Nations climate-change conference in Paris, after which the countries’ national security advisers met in Bangkok, Thailand, for discussions on terrorism, the disputed Kashmir territory and other issues, officials said. In October, Pakistani officials brought a deaf-and-mute woman back home to India 15 years after she had unwittingly strayed across the border into Pakistan as a girl. Analysts said Modi appears willing to endure criticism from hard-liners in his Bharatiya Janata Party who oppose outreach to Pakistan, which they accuse of harboring Islamist militant groups that have frequently attacked India.

DENVER — Pot’s not green. The $3.5 billion U.S. cannabis market is emerging as one of the nation’s most powerhungry industries, with the 24-hour demands of thousands of indoor growing sites taxing aging electricity grids and unraveling hard-earned gains in energy conservation. Without design standards or efficient equipment, the facilities in the 23 states where marijuana is legal are responsible for greenhouse-gas emissions almost equal to those of every car, home and business in New Hampshire. While reams of regulations cover everything from tracking individual plants to package labeling to advertising, they lack requirements to reduce energy waste.
JERUSALEM — Young Palestinians with kitchen knives are waging a ceaseless campaign of near-suicidal violence that Israeli leaders are calling “a new kind of terrorism.” Four attacks occurred in the past 48 hours alone — two stabbings and two vehicular assaults. There have been about 120 attacks and attempted assaults by Palestinians against Israelis since early October, an average of more than one a day. At least 20 Israelis have been killed; more than 80 Palestinians have been shot dead by security forces and armed civilians during the assaults. There is a sense on both sides that something unprecedented is happening, a shapeless rebellion of individuals driven by an unknowable combination of hatred and despair.
Palestinian toddler’s death Israeli authorities are expected to soon raise charges against Jewish extremists suspected in a July arson attack on a Palestinian home that killed a toddler and his parents — a case that has been unsolved for months and that helped fuel the current wave of IsraeliPalestinian violence. But the drawn-out investigation has raised questions as to why the process is taking so long when authorities often swiftly arrest and prosecute Palestinians suspected in attacks on Israelis. A jarring video that aired this week on Israeli TV showed extremist Jews brandishing rifles and knives during a frenzied party — some stabbing photos of the slain Palestinian toddler.
A strong earthquake shook parts of Pakistan and Afghanistan early Saturday, rattling buildings and forcing sleeping residents out of their homes. More than 30 people were injured as houses or walls collapsed in the Pakistan city of Peshawar, an emergency service spokesman said. A total of 41 people were taken to hospitals in the city, officials said. A Pakistani official said the magnitude-6.9 quake was centered in Tajikistan near the Afghan border, beginning after midnight and lasting for 59 seconds. The U.S. Geological Survey reported the quake measured magnitude 6.2 and was centered in the Hindu Kush region of Afghanistan.

sitting next to a decorated fireplace and Christmas tree. The highly personal Christmas message is a focal point of the royal family’s holidays. The queen writes the brief speech herself, while she receives help from senior ministers on most other speeches. She often refers to her Christian faith during the talk, as she did this time, but she also made clear that the beauty of a decorated Christmas tree can be enjoyed by people of all faiths and by those without formal religious belief. Elizabeth wore a white and silver tweed day dress by Angela Kelly during the speech, accessorizing it with
an art deco diamond and aquamarine brooch that belonged to her late mother. The table she sat next to was decorated with a portrait of Prince William, Kate and young Prince George. The senior royals usually spend the Christmas holidays at Sandringham, a sprawling estate in Norfolk, 110 miles north of London. They usually exchange gifts on Christmas Eve and attend a church service on the grounds before enjoying a gala lunch and, sometimes, a walk in the woods. This year Princess Charlotte and “big” brother Prince George, age 2, did not attend
the traditional Christmas Day service at St. Mary Magdalene Church. The queen, in a festive red coat, arrived in a Bentley to lead the family to the service amid some sprinkles of rain. Prince Charles and his wife Camilla were among the royals attending as some 1,000 well-wishers gathered outside hoping for a glimpse. Prince William, Prince Harry and Kate came as well. Kate wore a green coat and matching hat. The Christmas message — a time-honored British tradition — will be posted on the royal YouTube channel for maximum exposure.

Associated Press SANDRINGHAM, England — Queen Elizabeth II used her Christmas message Friday to proclaim that light can triumph over darkness in these perilous times — and to comment on the joys of having a new great-granddaughter, Princess Charlotte. Elizabeth, who this year became Britain’s longest-reigning monarch, acknowledged the difficult times the world faces but said there is no cause for despair, no reason to give up hope. The queen’s speech has been a tradition in Britain since Elizabeth first delivered a Christmas message live on radio in 1952. “It is true that the world has had to confront moments of darkness this year, but the Gospel of John contains a verse of great hope, often read at Christmas carol services: ‘The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it’.” On a lighter note, she remarked on the birth of Charlotte to Prince William and his wife, Kate, in May. “One of the joys of living a long life is watching one’s children, then grandchildren, then great-grandchildren, help decorate the Christmas tree. And this year my family has a new member to join in the fun,” she said. She spoke in a prerecorded message from the 18th Century Room at Buckingham Palace,
AROUND THE WORLD
Some operations have blown out transformers, resulting in fires. Others rely on pollutionbelching diesel generators to avoid hooking into the grid. And demand could intensify in 2017 if advocates succeed in legalizing the drug for recreational use in several states, including California and Nevada. State regulators are grappling with how to address the growth, said Pennsylvania Public Utility Commissioner Pam Witmer. “We are at the edge of this,” Witmer said. “We are looking all across the country for examples and best practices.” The corporatization of what was once off-the-grid narcoagriculture is taxing electrical systems even as the nation prepares to comply with the Paris climate accord and the Environmental Protection Agency
tries to reduce greenhouse gases from coal-fired power plants, which is considered the single largest domestic source of emissions that create global warming. “Consumers seeking a green lifestyle are likely unaware that their cannabis use could cancel out their otherwise low-carbon footprint,” said Evan Mills, a senior scientist for California’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. Indoor growing operations in 2012 racked up at least $6 billion a year in energy costs, compared with $1 billion for pharmaceutical companies, Mills found in a study he did independent of the research institution. Some larger facilities today suck down as much as $1 million in power a month. “We don’t have aggregated energy audits from hundreds
of grow operations that show us an energy footprint,” said John Morris, director of policy and regulatory affairs at CLEAResult, an Austin, Texas, consultancy that works with growers and utilities. “We have utilities in the Northwest putting in new transformer substations to meet the load. Producers are having to go out and build infrastructure.” In Boulder County, Colorado, commissioners levied an energy-usage fee on such facilities after finding that a 5,000-square-foot operation consumed 29,000 kilowatt hours a month, about five times more than a typical commercial use, said Ron Flax, the county’s sustainability examiner. Such operations send about 30,334 pounds of carbon dioxide per month to the atmosphere, county statistics show.
Two people drowned and at least 12 others were injured when they tried to get to a small patch of Spanish territory in North Africa by swimming from Morocco and scaling a barbed-wire fence that juts into the sea, news agencies reported Friday. The dead and hurt were among more than 200 people trying to reach the enclave of Ceuta, which borders Morocco and is across the Strait of Gibraltar from mainland Spain. Thousands of African migrants try to enter the Spanish enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla each year hoping to get to Europe. Fifteen drowned trying to reach Ceuta last year.
ACROSS THE U.S. Alabama: New tornado hits A Christmastime wave of severe weather continued Friday as a tornado touched down in Jefferson County, Alabama, including through the southwest portion of Birmingham. Witnesses spotted the funnel outside the city about 5 p.m. An hour later, the National Weather Service confirmed that first responders were on the scene along Jefferson Avenue in a working class neighborhood about eight miles from downtown Birmingham. A police spokesman said trees are down and people were trapped inside damaged houses but there were no immediate reports of injuries or deaths. Unseasonably warm weather Wednesday helped spawn torrential rain and deadly tornadoes that left at least 14 people and left dozens of families homeless by Christmas Eve.
California: Deadly inferno Three children and their mother were killed in a mobile home fire Christmas morning, while the family’s father survived the fast-moving blaze. Neighbors of the home in Big Bear Lake called 911 to report the fire just before 6 a.m. Friday, the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department said. When the first deputy arrived, the home was fully engulfed and the family’s injured father was outside. The father said his family was still inside but he couldn’t get to them because of the extent of the fire. Foul play was not suspected. From Herald news services

Kiddie tablets grow up Today’s tablets aimed at children are basically the same thing their parents use, with more durable casings.
By Cameron Huddleston GOBankingRates.com
By Bree Fowler Associated Press
Kiddie tablets have grown up. Tablets designed just for kids are getting more sophisticated as they face increased competition from regular tablets. The new products also have better screens, speedier chips and fashionably slim bodies. They let older children do more, yet hold their hands until they’re ready for unsupervised access. Although many of the tablets were originally conceived as educational toys for kids as old as middle schoolers, they’ve been more popular with younger children. Older kids have been apt to reject them in favor of their parents’ tablet or smartphone. That shift has prompted companies to focus more on preschoolers and kindergarteners, as they create super-durable products that can withstand repeated abuse and develop games and apps that teach reading and math. But now, some of those companies are looking to take back some of the sales to older kids that they’ve lost over the years, offering premium products — most with price tags of over $100 — that look and perform less like toys and more like the ones adults use. LeapFrog, maker of the toy-like LeapPad, released its first Android tablet this year. And Kurio is branching out to Windows 10 and includes a full version of Microsoft Office in a new tablet-laptop combination. The use of Android and Windows software, in place of the more basic, custom-made systems used in toy tablets, allows for more sophisticated apps and games and a range of content from standard app stores. Monica Brown, LeapFrog’s vice president for product marketing, said the company aimed to “create something that was kind of sleek and more tech forward for kids who were looking for something that felt like their parents’ tablet.” But parents still want educational content and safety features that come with a tablet designed purely for kids. LeapFrog’s Epic, along with the other new tablets for kids, are attempts to bridge that gap. The Epic looks like a regular Android tablet, but comes with a removable bright-green bumper. It is much faster than a LeapPad and can run versions of popular Android games such as “Fruit Ninja” and “Doodle Jump.” There’s access to the Internet, but it’s limited to about 10,000 kidsafe websites (though parents can add others). Parents can also limit and track how much time a child spends watching videos, playing games or reading. Lynn Schofield Clark, a professor of media studies at the University of Denver, said kids tablets are a tough sell these days. “Kids are always aspirational in their ages, and they’re always interested in what older kids are doing,” Clark said, pointing to the fascination that many preteens have with smartphones as a prime example. Meanwhile, most parents won’t spend money on kids-only gadgets unless they believe they offer significant educational benefits. “If they’re just looking for something to entertain their kid, then why wouldn’t they just hand over their smartphone?” she asked. Kurio aims to answer that question with the Smart, a device that let kids do things they previously might have needed their parents’ laptop for, such as typing up and saving their homework online or playing video on their TV through an HDMI cable. The Smart is a Windows 10 laptop with a detachable screen and comes with a free year of Microsoft Office. Eric Levin, Kurio’s strategic

These tablets aimed at kids feature high-definition screens and Android- or Windows 10-based operating systems. Top to bottom are LeapFrog’s Epic, a Nabi Elev-8, the Amazon Fire Kids Edition (left) and Kurio’s Xtreme 2 (lower right).
Six kids’ tablets at a glance Want to get your child a tablet computer? Here’s a look at some models designed for kids. All of them feature parental controls and can toggle back and forth between kid and adult modes, so parents can use them to check their email or post on Twitter after their little ones go to bed.
LEAPFROG EPIC ($140)
AMAZON FIRE KIDS EDITION ($100)
This is LeapFrog’s first Android tablet. Like its toy-like predecessor, the LeapPad, this tablet has an educational focus. Content is based on a child’s age. Various apps communicate with each other as they track a child’s progress, helping to create a more customized experience. Each day, kids are presented with a new vocabulary word when they sign on. A connected stylus, familiar to LeapPad users, helps with writing practice. Web surfing is limited to a 10,000 kid-safe sites.
This is Amazon’s bare-bones $50 Fire tablet packaged with a colorful protective bumper (pink or blue), a year’s subscription to kids’ content through Amazon’s FreeTime Unlimited and free replacements for two years if the tablet breaks. FreeTime Unlimited, which normally starts at $3 per month, is what really shines. Kids have unlimited access to 10,000 kid-friendly books, videos and games. Ads and in-app purchases are disabled.
TECH INNOTAB MAX ($100)
KURIO XTREME 2 ($130) Similar to the Epic, the Extreme 2 has a sharp screen, fast processor and a decent amount of storage. It comes with games and apps, including a handful of motion games that are controlled by your child’s movements as they pretend to do things like ski or swim. Kids can access the Internet, which can be filtered as much or as little as their parent desires.
KURIO SMART ($200) Geared toward older kids, this is something that they can type book reports on or do online research for a school project. It is the first kids tablet to run on Windows 10 and includes a free year of Microsoft Office. Parents can filter the Internet and set time limits on use. The device comes with a slew of games and apps, including the same motion games on the Xtreme 2. The device is a laptop whose keyboard detaches to become a tablet. When closed, the keyboard acts as a hard, protective case.
director, said kids using children’s tablets are getting younger, as older kids gravitate toward adult products. Four years ago, he said, most Kurio users ranged from ages 6 to 12. Now, half of them are 3 to 5. Although older kids may be ready for adult tablets, the shift has left those 8 to 12 without ageappropriate devices, Levin says. The Smart tries to fix that. Other makers of kids tablets have also gone high-end this year. Fuhu bills the Nabi Elev-8 as a premium, 8-inch tablet. But the company ran into financial problems early in the holiday season, and its products have been tough
Yes, VTech is the company that got hacked in November, exposing personal information on more than 6 million children. Nonetheless, the Innotab Max is a decent product, particularly for younger children. The tablet folds to close, creating a hard, protective case with a handle for on-the-go use. Little kids may like this, but older children will likely be turned off by the look. Because this tablet uses Google’s Android, it has access to a variety of content made for that system. But it also features content designed by VTech. However, VTech’s app store remains shut because of the data breach.
FUHU NABI ELEV-8 ($170) Its sharp screen and fast processor give it the look and feel of a premium product. And while it comes with a hefty amount of built-in games and apps, kids can get more through Nabi Pass, a $5-per-month subscription service similar to FreeTime Unlimited. But the company has run into financial problems, so its Elev-8 tablets have been tough to find. Bree Fowler, Associated Press
to find. Nonetheless, adult tablets remain popular with kids. Amazon touts its Fire tablet as something the entire family can use, eliminating the need to buy something just for the kids. “While I appreciate that might have led other companies to adjust their products, we’re upping our game based on what customers want in the best kid experience,” said Aaron Bromberg, senior manager of product management for Amazon Devices. The tablet’s FreeTime app lets parents set up profiles for each kid, with access to only the
content they approve. It also lets parents limit the amount of time spent on different kinds of content such as videos or apps. For an additional fee, Amazon’s FreeTime Unlimited service offers more than 10,000 books, apps, games and videos geared toward kids ages 3 to 10. Nonetheless, Amazon is selling a kids’ edition tablet for $100. It’s essentially Amazon’s bare-bones $50 Fire tablet packaged with a colorful protective bumper and a year’s subscription to FreeTime Unlimited. It also comes with a two-year guarantee: If your kid breaks it, Amazon will replace it.
Grocery shopping can take a big bite out of your household budget. In fact, a family of four spends up to an average of $1,300 a month on food at home, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. With the right strategies you can cut your grocery spending in half or more. Just ask Kyle Taylor, founder of personal finance blog ThePennyHoarder.com. When he was just a teenager, he was finding ways to whittle down his family’s grocery bill to less than $20 a week. Since then, he’s launched a career in helping people save more money. Taylor shared these tips to save money on groceries without spending hours clipping coupons. 1. Start with discounted gift cards The first money-saving move Taylor makes is buying discounted gift cards for supermarkets and other stores that carry grocery items, such as Target. You can get gift cards for less than face value at sites such as Raise.com, Cardpool and Giftcard Zen. “These gift cards are sold for 1 percent to 25 percent below face value, meaning that I’ve saved money before ever stepping into the grocery store,” Taylor said. 2. Add on coupons Collecting coupons doesn’t have to be as time consuming as it might seem, Taylor said. Even clipping coupons can be simple. Taylor gets the Sunday paper delivered to his doorstep and slips the grocery coupon inserts into a filing cabinet, organizing them by date. Then, before shopping each week, he uses the free Favado app to see sales in his area. Once he’s found sale items he wants to buy, he finds coupons he needs to clip to get these items for less. Because Favado lists coupons by date, he can quickly track down the inserts he needs in his filing cabinet. “It saves me tons of time every month because I don’t have to clip coupons I’ll never use,” he said. 3. Download rebate apps Taylor stacks his gift card and coupon savings with grocery rebates he gets with apps like Ibotta and Checkout 51. The Ibotta app uses your smartphone’s GPS to locate grocery stores around you. Choose your favorite and then browse rebates to find the ones you want to use. Before you shop, you’ll have to “unlock” the rebates, which usually requires reading a quick fact or watching a 15-second ad about the product. “It’s pretty easy and won’t take you much time,” he said. When you get home from the store, click the “redeem” button on the Ibotta app and use your smartphone’s camera to take a picture of your receipt. Within 24 hours, Taylor said you’ll see cash in your Ibotta account, which you can withdraw anytime via Paypal or Venmo. The Checkout 51 app works similarly. Select the rebates you want, purchase the items and then upload a picture of your receipt through the app or Checkout51.com. Taylor said that when your account reaches $20, Checkout 51 sends you a check. 4. Stock up during sales When items you regularly buy go on sale, take advantage of the discounted prices to buy several if they can be frozen, are nonperishable or have a long shelf life. You don’t have to be a hoarder though, Taylor said. “Grocery stores have eight- to 12-week sale cycles, so odds are that item will be on sale again soon — and you only need to stock up enough to get you to that next sale,” he said.

to share their talents,” club leader Aimee Dunbar said. The club has been around for about three years. It’s grown so much that there are now two groups, one that meets in Lake Stevens and a second that meets in the Lynnwood area. The name is taken from Capernaum, a town in the Bible. The story is that Jesus was teaching in Capernaum and four men carried their friend with a disability to see him. The crowds prevented the men from reaching Jesus, so they lifted their friend to the roof, where they cut a hole and lowered the man to Jesus’ feet. He was moved by their actions and faith, and saved the man. The Snohomish County club welcomes young people with special needs, encourages their faith and offers them fellowship. “We want them to know they’re loved and to know God loves them,” Dunbar said. Katie Harrell said her daughter Megan’s faith was strong before she joined the Young Life club about three years ago. It has grown stronger as Megan found a safe place to share her beliefs. Her daughter keeps a notebook detailing the

club’s talks. “She is accepted for who she is and is comfortable expressing her faith,” Katie Harrell said. “It doesn’t matter what church you go to,
everyone is accepted there.” Her daughter, 22, has Down Syndrome. She’s also a pianist and an actress and works at Country Market in Lake Stevens.
At the talent show earlier this month, the young woman played “Angels We Have Heard on High,” one of her favorites. As the last note faded she looked up from
the keyboard and there was joy on her face. “I love playing Christmas songs on the piano,” she said later. Dylan Job, 23, walked

The duo told a few Christmas-themed jokes. “Knock, knock.” “Who’s there?” Job asked. “Doughnut,” Dunbar said. “Doughnut who?” Job asked. “Do not open until Christmas.” Just a few groans from the audience on that one. “I hadn’t been on stage in a little while,” Job said. “I got through it.” Job likes catching up with his friends at the Young Life club. His mom says it can be challenging to find social activities for her son now that he’s no longer attending the Washington State School for the Blind. “It’s so refreshing to be involved in a place, where really there is no judgement,” Jaime Job said. “No one looks at the kids with pity, just with love.” Dylan Job said he likes meeting up with his friends he doesn’t encounter at work. He makes canteens at Seattle Lighthouse for the Blind. Sometimes he catches the bus for work at 6:30 a.m. and doesn’t get home until 6:30 p.m., his mom said. “No matter how tired he is, he’ll go to club,” she said.

Diverse groups join to celebrate On Dec. 14, over 350 Muslim, Christians and secular people from Lynnwood area gathered to share an evening of respect and dialogue at Trinity Lutheran Church. We were people of faith respecting our differences and celebrating our commonalities and our common humanity. Everyone who came to this event was weary of the hate and exclusion narrative of darkness spreading through our country. We all shared a hunger to engage in a life-giving narrative of dignity, respect and care for all. As I watched people walk into this event, I thought these are the “boots on the ground” that can transform our world.

GUEST COMMENTARY | State Supreme Court ruling
Charter schools should be directly accountable to public By Ken White
C
indy Omlin’s Nov. 29th letter in support of public charter schools commits four sins of omission. It argues that the Washington state Supreme Court ruling against public charter schools ignores Washington state citizens, disregards the promise of opportunity and choice for teachers and students, and favors “entrenched stakeholders concerned with maintaining their power and the status quo.” First, Omlin, director of Northwest Professional Educators, omits telling readers that her organization wants teachers to forgo unions and relinquish rights to collective bargaining. It represents corporate-style school reform that is stymied by teacher unions. It advocates a top-down approach that creates arbitrary power and cuts off the voice of teachers, overlooking mutual respect and partnership between teachers and administrators. Second, Omlin does not admit to how the Supreme Court ruling actually takes citizen interests
into account. The court ruled that under present law, public charter schools are not “common schools” and cannot be funded by common school funds. They are not publicly governed, not locally controlled and not under the authority of elected school boards — all elements of citizen oversight of public funds. Charter schools are part of the rising tide of education privatization that wants to survive on the public’s dime, benefit from public funds but not be accountable to the public. Third, Omlin ignores a Stanford study that shows how charter school students at the end of the school year are eight days ahead of public school kids in reading, and show 29 percent more learning gains in math. Positive results at first glance except that 40 percent of charter school students perform the same as public schools students in math and 31 percent perform significantly weaker. In other words, 71 percent of charter school students are at the same level as public school students or worse. Charter schools are clearly
not the opportunity they claim to be, and the choice to invest public funds in them at the expense of public schools is a poor one. Finally, Omlin avoids being specific about who are “entrenched stakeholders.” Well, they are a first-grade teacher, a school librarian, a school counselor — people who serve the community on an average salary of $55,000. Of course, public school teachers are entrenched in power and status when compared to charter school teachers who have an average salary of $41,592. But neither compare to the real entrenched stakeholders as reported by the New York Daily News. Charter school executives like Eva Moskowitz of Success Charter Network gets a salary of $316,570 and David Levin, KIPP co-founder and superintendent, follows close behind with $296,750. Public charter schools drain funds from public schools. Perhaps we should follow the money. Ken White is a resident of Marysville.
GUEST COMMENTARY | The John Wayne Trail
Proposal would close statewide trail without rhyme or reason Editor’s note: The poem below refers to an attempt earlier this year by state lawmakers to close a 130-mile section of the 250-mile John Wayne Trail that runs from Seattle to the Spokane Valley. The legislation failed because of a typographical error. State Reps. Mary Dye, R-Pomeroy, and Joe Schmick, R-Colfax, sought the closure claiming the trail is little used and is prone to crime. Sen. Mark Schoesler, R-Ritzville, is Senate Majority Leader.
Save the John Wayne Trail By Ted Blaszak
W
ashington state is justly renowned As a place where natural beauty is found. Islands, peaks and rainforest glens All delight the photographer’s lens. Admittedly, these places are great, But there’s much more to our fair state, Such as cliffs and canyons, sheer rock walls, Remains of mammoth waterfalls. Lyric hills of windblown soil Provide a quiet, soothing foil And a welcome and serene retreat From crowded cities of
concrete. It’s where one can regain perspective Enjoy a chance to be reflective, And at the same time get to know This region that we cherish so. Where once the mighty railroad train Traversed the undulating plain Carrying a massive load— The Milwaukee main line railroad Connected east and furthest west For a century, then laid to rest; A corridor right through the state Just what was to be its fate? Then someone had a brilliant plan To create a trail that would span The width of our fair Washington, And pretty soon the job was done. That trail is a state resource For those who love to ride a horse Or bike or walk through scenery Of farms, badlands and greenery. Named for a giant of the screen It offers much that can be seen Only at a gradual pace — Not like the freeway’s roaring race. But now there’s been a shameful act,

THE DRAWING BOARD
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■COMMUNITY
|
A secret politicians’ pact To sneak some lines into a law (Lines the public never saw), Hidden from the public’s eyes, To cause the John Wayne Trail’s demise— Devised by Schoesler, Schmick and Dye To let the John Wayne Trail die. As decades pass and cities grow, More and more will wish to go On treks just like the John Wayne Trail — Speak now, or it will surely fail. But whether you are pro or con, Remember — when it’s gone, it’s gone. Yes, there’s expenses for the path, But don’t toss the babe out with the bath. Attend a meeting, talk, debate, Don’t let cabals and cliques negate The peoples’ interest and desire — Throw out those who would conspire To pull off legalistic tricks All in the name of politics. Attend a meeting, take a stand— This land, remember, is your land. Ted Blaszak is a member of the Tekoa City Council and the Tekoa Trail and Trestle Association. The poem was written by Blaszak and fellow trail supporters.

A paradise for beer lovers Bend, Oregon, has one of the highest concentrations of craft breweries in U.S. By Dina Mishev Special To The Washington Post
BEND, Ore. — “Do you want to go to the Shell or Chevron?” asks Andrea as we heft our mountain bikes onto car racks after a ride at Shevlin Park, a 650-acre spread three miles northwest of downtown Bend, Oregon. I tell Andrea I don’t care where she gets gas. “I’m not getting gas,” she says. “I don’t have any beer to go with dinner. I’ve got my growler to fill.” Oregon law doesn’t allow you pump your own gas. But the beer scene in Bend, an outdoors playground anchored by mountain biking in the summer and the Mount Bachelor ski area in the winter, is such that a local company, the Growler Guys (11400 NW College Way, www.thegrowlerguys.com), successfully pushed to make it legal for them to have taps in gas station convenience stores. “While they’re filling up your car, I run inside and get a growler filled,” Andrea says. “It’s so much more convenient than buying a six-pack at the grocery store or going to a brewery itself.” Inside the Chevron there are 36 taps; 30 dispense beer or hard cider and six dispense kombucha. As a guy fills Andrea’s growler — an accessory here akin to a briefcase on Capitol Hill — with Boneyard Beer’s flagship brew, RPM, a pale ale brewed with six different varieties of locally grown hops, we’re offered samples. I go for What Does the Fox Say?, a Cascadian dark ale from local Riverbend Brewing. It’s described as having a slightly chocolate flavor. The mouthwash-size sample comes in a mouthwash-size plastic cup. Sipping it, I see a handwritten sign taped above taps: “Pints now available. Limit 2.” In Wyoming, where I live, there are drivethrough liquor stores. This is another level, though. Here’s the problem: I hate the taste of beer. Never in my entire life — college fraternity parties included — have I been able to drink an entire pint without throwing up in my mouth. As an adult, friends have sometimes sneaked beer into an opaque glass before handing it to me just to watch my facial expressions. The adjectives I use to describe beer’s taste and smell, and it doesn’t matter if it’s a pilsner, IPA, hefeweizen or stout, include “toe cheese,” “cat urine” and, when I’m low on imagination, “bitter.” I’ve never had a beer I didn’t find bitter. I do not like bitter. My taste buds pick up no chocolate in What Does the Fox Say. They do pick up bitter. And as much as Andrea, and the rest of Bend, love Boneyard’s RPM, it makes me pucker. I wish I liked beer. My mom loves it and collects bottles from around the world; the souvenir
Crux beer is transferred from growler to glass.
can’t be in the collection unless she drank its contents. Twentyfive years ago her collection started on one shelf high on a kitchen wall. Over the past two decades, my father built shelves extensive enough to ring the entire kitchen. Some walls have double-decker shelves, and many shelves have bottles two deep. No two are the same. One of my wildest dreams is to enjoy a beer with her — without getting sick.
Plenty to choose from Visiting Bend this past summer, I quickly see it as a city especially qualified to help me realize this dream. The Bend Ale Trail, promoted as “the largest beer trail in the West,” includes 16 breweries; you can bike or walk between most of them. Last year, the lifestyle website Livability named Bend the No. 1 Beer City in the country, writing that it has one of the highest concentrations of craft breweries per capita in the country. Within the city limits there are about 81,000 people and 21 breweries (with seven additional breweries nearby). They include one of the biggest craft breweries in the country, Deschutes, as well as the tiny Ale Apothecary, which barrel-ages all of its wild fermented beer in the garage of former Deschutes brewer Paul Arney, its headquarters. (Wild fermentation uses yeast from the air or a reused barrel instead of a cultivated one, like brewer’s yeast.) It sells for about $30 a bottle, if you can get your hands on one. Last year, the Ale Apothecary (61517 River Road, www.thealeapothecary. com) produced only 150 barrels of beer; Arney gets about 300 bottles of beer per barrel. In Bend, people drink beer like wine — sniffing, sipping and savoring before talking about things like undertones of grapefruit, vanilla or caramel. This is the most basic level of Bend beer conversation and connoisseurship. “This is definitely a place that goes for quality over quantity,” says Arney, who was voted the city’s best brewer in August by readers of Bend’s City Source.
“There might be a saturation point for how many brewery/ restaurants Bend can support, but I don’t think there is one for well-crafted beer. People here will always appreciate that and seek out new tastes.”
Everyone wants to be a Cicerone On the outskirts of the orderly downtown in a building that was formerly an Aamco, Crux Fermentation Project (50 SW Division St., www.crux fermentation.com) is so packed there’s an official parking attendant. The main lot is full, and I’m directed to a satellite lot. Seats at a communal table are even harder to find than a parking spot, but we snag some in time to hear our new neighbor ask the server whether his beer has Brettanomyces or Lactobacillus in it. Is this beer or a biology class? “Brettanomyces,” she replies. The man turns to his friend. “I told you so.” That’s the next level of Bend beerdom. When Anna Roberts returns with my four samples, I can’t help but ask, “Isn’t Lactobacillus what’s in yogurt?” It turns out I’ve asked the right person. Roberts is near the highest level of beer expertise; she’s a Cicerone. A Cicerone is to beer what a sommelier is to wine and, over the course of my Bend beer research, I find that everyone here (a) is either studying to become a Cicerone or (b) bikes with someone who is. The two words that best sum Bend up are “beer” and “biking.” Bend’s 14-person Cycle Pub (www.cyclepub.com) is exactly what it sounds like and is an example of the sum being greater than its individual parts. Lactobacillus is the bacteria in yogurt, and Brettanomyces is another wild strain of bacteria that brewers are now allowing, or introducing, into their fermentation processes. It creates what is called a “sour beer.” “A lot of the time Bend is ahead of the curve,” Roberts says. “I think sours are going to be the next big thing.”
Drinking up I save Crux’s sour, Banished
Freakcake, for last, hoping I’ll like the “next big thing.” Because the idea of “liking” something is fairly subjective, early on I decide that for me to be able to say I like a beer, I must be able to drink an entire pint of it under two conditions: without making any funny faces and with enjoyment. I start with Flanders Red, Crux’s interpretation of a traditional Belgian-style red ale. It tastes like foot mold to me. The Farmhouse Ale, a saison, is slightly better — minty and light — but it’d be a struggle for me to get an entire pint down. Freakcake time. Freakcake is not only a sour, but also barrel aged. There is a 2013 and a 2014 on the menu. I try both. I’m a fiend for espresso, and these immediately appeal to me — they’ve got crema, the foam layer on top of a properly pulled espresso; are almost the color of coal; and I can smell coffee notes as soon as I pull them near me. I’m unable to distinguish the nuances between the 2013 and the 2014 Freakcakes, but I return to each sample for second and third sips. If they weren’t 10.5 percent alcohol, I think I could like both. They are the first beers I have had in my life with a positive flavor profile: I taste the fig and dried cranberry the menu description promises. (I don’t pick up the mentioned hints of sour cherries, raisins, dates, currants or lemon and orange zest.)
Going to Deschutes Next up is Deschutes (901 SW Simpson Ave., www.deschutes brewery.com). I do a morning tour of their 91,000-square foot production facility. Deschutes began brewing beer in 1988 in a smaller facility in downtown Bend and today makes 337,000 barrels (one barrel is 31 gallons) annually in this bigger one, which opened in 1993, expanded in 2004 and does daily free tours. Every 23 minutes, the tour guide tells us, they bottle a lifetime supply of beer for someone who lives to the average age, which they say is 79, and drinks the average annual number of beers, which they say is 219. There’s a tasting room at the brewery, but I save myself for Deschutes’ downtown Bend Public House (1044 NW Bond St., www.deschutesbrewery. com), which was their original production facility and where they today serve not only standards such as Black Butte Porter, Obsidian Stout, Mirror Pond Pale Ale and Chainbreaker IPA, but also limited-edition special projects. “We use people at the brewpub as guinea pigs,” says Gina Schauland, Deschutes’ social media coordinator and also the founder of the Central Oregon
Beer Angels, a group of women beer drinkers that has nearly 400 members. If a limited-edition beer does well at the brewpub, Deschutes makes it again and it becomes a “pub exclusive.” Three of our six samples, Pine Mountain Pilsner, Central Oregon Saison and Summer Piquant, are pub exclusives. The others are Twilight Summer Ale, Nitro Obsidian Stout and the Black Butte. An enthusiastic 20-something delivers the four-ounce samples and applauds our selection. “I’m really inspired by your order,” he says. I think he’s joking. But no. “I really like what you guys have done here.” Because Bend is a hop-crazy town, he probably thinks our selections are shrewd and meaningful. The only meaning is that they are the six least hoppy beers of the 17 currently on tap. Five of the six fail with me. The sixth, Nitro Obsidian Stout, I kind of like, probably because it’s like drinking dessert — part espresso, part chocolate. Since I’m getting closer to liking something, I don’t stop.
Success ... sort of Worthy Brewing has a beer that comes with a side of raspberry syrup to sweeten it up, but it’s still too bitter. McMenamins’ Terminator Stout and Ruby, an ale with added raspberries, fall into the same category as the Nitro Obsidian Stout: getting closer, but not quite to “like” yet. I bypass liking and fall in love at 10 Barrel (1135 NW Galveston Ave., www.10barrel.com). Some Bend locals began boycotting this brewery after AnheuserBusch InBev bought it last year — for a reported $50 million and changing nothing really, besides investing $10 million — but since I have no history with it, I don’t care. And that’s a good thing because I love its Swill. It’s only 4.5 percent alcohol, and I drink an entire pint of Swill without making a single funny face. Swill is based on a Berliner weisse and is lemony, effervescent and thirst-quenching. I don’t sip it slowly, but swig it like water after a long run. And then I call my mom with the good news. “I’ve found a beer I really like!” “What kind?” “It’s an American radler. I drank the whole pint!” Silence. “Did you hear? I drank a whole pint of beer!” “Radler isn’t beer. But I guess it’s a start.” Despite her high standards — after checking with several other sources, the consensus is that radler is beer, but “it’s what Germans drink when they don’t want to drink” — I leave Bend saying I like beer.

Postcard-Pretty Snohomish County
With spectacular scenery, outdoor recreation and a thriving economy, county has something for everyone By Megan Mattingly-arthur Special to The Daily Herald
l
ocated just minutes from Seattle, and nestled between Puget Sound and the stunning Olympic Mountains, Snohomish County is a Pacific Northwest gem that boasts spectacular scenery, an array of outdoor recreational opportunities and easy access to the region’s most notable attractions and points of interest, including the San Juan Islands, which are just a short ferry ride away. Approximately 759,583 people call Snohomish County home, and the region enjoys a thriving economy due, in part, to the presence of large – and extremely profitable – employers, such as Boeing, whose Everett assembly plant manufactures the 747, 767, 777 and 787 Dreamliner aircraft. Aviation enthusiasts can enjoy a wide variety of interactive displays and exhibits in the facility’s 28,000-square-foot Aviation Center Gallery. Visitors also can take a 90-minute tour of the Boeing plant – called the Future of Flight Aviation Center & Boeing Tour – which has the distinction of being North America’s only public tour of a commercial jet-assembly plant. In addition to great attractions like the Boeing plant, Snohomish County is also a hot spot for excellent food and beverages, including locally brewed craft beers. Offering a wide range of cuisine types and styles – ranging from vibrant Pacific Northwest dishes to globally inspired fusion fare and classics such as pasta, steak and seafood dishes

Huskies seek to finish with winning record By Christian Caple The News Tribune
DALLAS — Think back to when this season began, on the blue turf at Boise State, where the Washington Huskies could hardly run the ball or protect their true freshman quarterback. Did you think they looked like a team that might achieve the six victories necessary to qualify for a bowl game? For as many frustrating moments as this season provided — losses to Oregon, Utah and Arizona State might still linger in the psyche of UW’s most ardent supporters — the Huskies were still able to extend it into the holidays, and they have a chance to clinch a winning record on Saturday afternoon in the heart of Texas. Err, sorry — the Heart of Dallas. That’s the name of the bowl game, anyway — it’s sponsored by Zaxby’s, a popular chicken joint down here — and it features Washington against the Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles, two programs that have never played each other. It will be a day of firsts, in fact: neither team has ever played a game at Cotton Bowl Stadium, and neither team has played in the Heart of Dallas Bowl, which debuted as the TicketCity Bowl in 2011. If the Huskies can beat the Golden Eagles — champions of the Conference USA’s West division — they will finish with a winning record for the sixth consecutive season. And while a just-barely-above-.500 mark would typically be a bare-minimum expectation at UW, the uncertainty surrounding this team’s preseason prospects would seem to make it more of an accomplishment. And while UW’s young roster likely benefited from the extra practice granted by the Huskies’ bowl eligibility, head coach Chris Petersen has said a few times that he’s mostly just happy that his team gets to play another game — especially after ending the regular season with a 45-10 victory over Washington State, one week after a 52-7 thrashing of Oregon State. “That’s what these guys need to do, and that’s what they live to do,” Petersen said during a Wednesday press conference in Dallas. “They work year-round to play these games. And not that See HUSKIES, Page C5

Evolved or matured?
Seahawks’ Carroll has seen changes in cornerback Sherman By Gregg Bell The News Tribune
RENTON — Richard Sherman’s evolving, all right. From “You mad bro?” to “You calling me matured bro?” “I haven’t matured,” the Seahawks’ 27-year-old All-Pro cornerback declared earlier this week. That was amid more talk — this time from his coach — that the native of Compton, California, who had a boulder on his shoulder when the fiery, in-yourface phenomenon entered the league in 2011, has evolved. Perhaps he’s less demonstrative on the field this season. Matured, even. “I just think people misunderstood it initially. Now they understand it a little better, and they understand what I’m doing and who I am,” Sherman said. “I think sometimes people want to come to a conclusion pretty quickly, and write their story, and then they say, ‘Oh, he’s changed.

changed this season. One difference has become obvious: Offenses aren’t throwing his way as often on the left side of Seattle’s defense.
Sherman has a career-low two interceptions with 13 passes defensed entering Sunday’s game between the playoff-bound Seahawks (9-5)
and the St. Louis Rams (6-8) at CenturyLink Field. Carroll and first-year defensive coordinator Kris Richard, Sherman’s former position coach, have countered by moving him around the defense more than in his first four seasons. He was the nickel back against slot receiver Randall Cobb at Green Bay in September. He began shadowing top wide receivers all over the field first against A.J. Green at Cincinnati in October. He limited Dez Bryant at Dallas in November then Antonio Brown of Pittsburgh after Thanksgiving. His effectiveness in a new role — and that “You mad bro?” national reputation already earned — led to Sherman’s third selection for the Pro Bowl. “I guess I’ve become more disciplined. I’ve come up with some new tricks, especially at the line of scrimmage,” he said when asked for a self-assessment. “I’ve become more patient. Confidence has never been an issue.” Uh, no, it hasn’t. “I feel like I’ve evolved,” he said. “I’ve brought a new aspect to my game every year.” The Seahawks’ member of the See SHERMAN, Page C5

EL PASO, Texas — Teams playing in the Sun Bowl in recent seasons often have brought long bowl droughts with them and left them at the border, and this year’s game between Miami and Washington State will add to that trend. Miami (8-4), despite its storied history, hasn’t won a bowl game since 2006, going 0-5 since then. The streak includes a loss to Notre Dame in the 2010 Sun Bowl. Washington State (8-4), which is in a bowl game for the second time in three years under coach Mike Leach, hasn’t won in the

surprise,” Hurricanes defensive lineman Calvin Heurtelou said. “The seniors are really trying to go out with something you can remember. I want to win bad, because there’s no other feeling better than winning your last game.” For Miami, the game also represents an opportunity for an upbeat finish to a season of turmoil. Coach Al Golden was fired after a 58-0 loss to Clemson. Larry Scott is the interim head coach, but Miami already has hired former Georgia coach Mark Richt. See COUGARS, Page C5

Cougars beat New Mexico 82-59

By Kalani Takase Associated Press
HONOLULU — Washington State didn’t need a wake-up call on Christmas morning. Josh Hawkinson and Ike Iroegbu each posted a doubledouble, and Washington State beat New Mexico 82-59 on Friday for seventh place in the Diamond Head Classic. The Cougars (8-4) never trailed and led by as many as 25 points to snap a two-game losing streak. They were coming off a 28-point loss to third-ranked Oklahoma on Tuesday and a four-point loss to Northern Iowa on Wednesday. Hawkinson, a junior forward, had 19 points and 10 rebounds. Iroegbu, a junior guard, added 17 points and a career-high 11 assists. “It was very important to win this game,” said Iroegbu, who had his second career doubledouble. “When you go into a tournament, you never want to lose all the games, so we just had a mindset of just coming out here and playing hard even though the game was at 8 in the morning.” Que Johnson added 14 points for Washington State, which shot 54.2 percent from the field and 11 of 20 on 3-pointers. Charles Callison and Valentine Izundu had 10 points apiece, the second time this season all five starters scored in double figures. “We always talk about and preach about chemistry and sharing the ball,” coach Ernie Kent said. “This is a system that is predicated on defense first and getting out in transition and finding people — having poise to find the open man and share the ball — because one through

And I thought, for the first time, we looked and almost did it perfectly today in terms of sharing the ball and finding people.” Tim Williams scored 16 points, Elijah Brown had 15 and Jordan Hunter 10 for the Lobos (7-6), who dropped their fourth straight game. New Mexico was 0 of 10 from 3-point range. It was the first
time since Dec. 17, 2013, against New Mexico State that the Lobos failed to make a 3-pointer in a game. They committed 18 turnovers, which led to 26 points for the Cougars. New Mexico had been averaging 78.2 points. “We just wanted to lock in on their two guards, Neal and Brown,” Iroegbu said.

Warriors beat Cavaliers 89-83 in NBA Finals rematch OAKLAND, Calif. — Even when all those long-range shots aren’t falling like usual, the defending-champion Golden State Warriors showed they are quite comfortable grinding out wins. Draymond Green had 22 points and 15 rebounds and the Warriors got defensive in their NBA Finals rematch against Cleveland, beating the Cavaliers 89-83 on Friday. “It’s good to have one of those every so often,” guard Stephen Curry said. “If our defense shows up, we’re in pretty good shape
to win games. We just show our versatility and try to win different ways.” Curry added 19 points, Klay Thompson had 18, and the Warriors improved to 28-1 by winning their 32nd straight regular-season home game. Instead of doing it with 3-pointers, defending champion Golden State maintained its edge over Cleveland by limiting the Cavaliers to 32 percent shooting. The Warriors were held under 100 points at home for the first time in more than a year in the regular season, however it happened five times in the playoffs. “It’s good to practice and get

experience in that type of game as well where it’s low scoring, getting stops, knocking down free throws and executing in the half court,” interim coach Luke Walton said. “It’s great experience for us.” LeBron James scored 25 points to lead the Cavaliers. They had their six-game winning streak snapped. “We gave ourselves a chance,” James said. “If we play like that defensively, we’re going to be a very tough team to beat. Offensively, we just didn’t have it. No one had it.” The Cavaliers were shorthanded when they lost the final

to the Warriors in six games, missing power forward Kevin Love the entire series with a shoulder injury and losing point guard Kyrie Irving to a knee injury late in the first game. Having both those players healthy for the rematch did little to help Cleveland. Love scored just 10 points on 5-for-16 shooting, and Irving missed 11 of 15 shots in a 13-point game. “Tonight our defense was absolutely unbelievable for all 48 minutes,” Warriors center Andrew Bogut said. “To keep them to the 80s, they never really got in a flow where they could really attack us.”

Serena Williams wins AP Female Athlete of Year for the fourth time Associated Press Serena Williams spent a good portion of 2015 deflecting questions about whether she could complete the Grand Slam. After coming oh-so-close, she can acknowledge how much she cared about the rare feat. “I wanted it. But ... winning one (major title) is not easy. And then, (when) you have a ‘bounty’ on your head, it’s even harder,” she said with a laugh. “If you know anything about me, I hate to lose. I’ve always said I hate losing more than I like winning, so that drives me to be the best that I can be.” Williams’ will was on

display time and again, along with her best-inthe-game serve and other skills, fashioning comeback after comeback to nearly become the first tennis player in more than a quartercentury to win all four Grand Slam tournaments in a season. In a vote by U.S. editors and news directors, Williams was chosen as The Associated Press Female Athlete of the Year for the fourth time. Results were announced Friday. Williams collected 50 first-place votes and 352 points. Carli Lloyd, whose hat trick in the final lifted the U.S. women’s soccer team to the World Cup title, was the runner-up, with 14 first-place votes and 243 points.

“Whenever they didn’t have the ball, we wanted to make sure we were denying them, and if they did have the ball, make it tough for them to shoot.” Iroegbu shot 7 of 9 from the field, including 3 of 5 from behind the arc. Hawkinson had his ninth double-double of the season and 29th of his career. Callison had four assists and three steals.

ahead of the woman she stunningly lost to last month, Holly Holm. UConn basketball player Breanna Stewart was fifth. The AP Male Athlete of the Year will be announced Saturday. Williams, who also won AP awards in 2002, 2009 and 2013, joined Chris Evert as a four-time honoree. The only woman with more AP selections is Babe Didrikson, with six [--] one for athletics in 1932, and five for golf from 1945-54. “It’s not even winning the Grand Slam titles as much as the way she got herself out of the deep holes that she dug, just repeatedly. It’s not like she had two or three narrow escapes,” Evert said about Williams. “It really was the year of the comeback. It was just unbelievable.”

ST. LOUIS — Earlier this month, the Rams played what could be their final home game in St. Louis. Now, they may be done with those practice fields, too. The Rams (6-8) are staying on the West Coast for the final two games, having traveled to Seattle on Christmas night for Sunday’s game, and then heading to Napa, California, where they’ll prepare for the season finale at San Francisco. It’s the first time in the franchise’s 21 seasons in St. Louis that it won’t be practicing at home for a regular-season game, although counting the preseason it’s the second time this year. The Rams stayed in Oxnard, California, between consecutive road games in August as well. The backdrop is just a bit unusual, given owner Stan Kroenke wants to move the team back to Los Angeles. After the last full-squad practice in St. Louis on Thursday — there was a walkthrough on Friday — coach Jeff Fisher said the extended trip was simply good strategy. “Rather than going all of the way to Seattle, coming back and then going back out to San Francisco, we started making those plans months ago,” Fisher said. “We’re prepared to go out there and have a good week of

league’s players’ union is still witty and outspoken against issues important to him. One example: Removing the team-placed, Gatorade-bottle prop from atop the podium to hidden behind it at the start of each weekly Wednesday press conference because that NFL sponsor is a competitor to the brand of sports drink he endorses. His loud, regular lobbying for Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin and kicker Steven Hauschka for Pro Bowl selection is another. Sherman failed at the latter effort; both are alternates. But expect Baldwin to get added to the team if Seattle doesn’t reach the Super Bowl; at least two of the six wide receivers selected for the Pro Bowl are likely to opt not to play, a league source with knowledge of the intentions of two Pro Bowl receivers told The News Tribune Wednesday. As for that wit, Sherman said the Pro Bowl voters overlooked the locker-room ping-pong skills of Hauschka (who in his day job has made 25 of 26 field goals this season, his career-low for misses over a full season). “Of course they did. Who would’ve known he’s one of the most outstanding ping-pong players in this league?” Sherman said in his characteristic deadpan. “I think they should have a spot in there for the Pro Bowl. Fans aren’t happy about (the all-star game) right now. They

we don’t need to get a lot better — we do. And our guys practice hard. But that’s what I was so excited about, not necessarily extra practice time, but a chance to get to play in a place like this at the Cotton Bowl that’s such a historic venue with this history and tradition against a really good opponent.” That opponent, Southern Miss, seems pleased with the matchup. The Golden Eagles are making their first bowl appearance since 2011, and Saturday’s game will be their third this season against a team from a Power 5 conference. They lost the

And Richt has begun to hire assistant coaches, leaving questions about what will happen to members of the current staff after the game. Still, Miami went 4-1 down the stretch to finish third in the ACC Coastal Division and qualify for a bowl. “It says a lot about someone’s character,” defensive back Deon Bush said of Scott. “He’s done a great job. We’re a close team, one of the closest bunches I’ve been around. I’m happy that, my senior year, we still fought to try to make this the best season possible.” Washington State’s road has been different. The Cougars weren’t picked
practice.” Just as he had before the home finale, Fisher maintained it was just another day at Rams Park. As usual, loud music played, the better to prepare players for a noisy road game day experience. Players like the idea of staying on the West Coast. “You ever hear of jet lag?” defensive back Lamarcus Joyner said. “I think they want to make sure the guys physically and mentally are ready.” Pro Bowl punter Johnny Hekker thought the idea was sound “from a logistical standpoint, plus it might be a little easier on us.” He thought of a fringe benefit, too. “I’m not sure any of us have been to Napa,” Hekker added. “Looking forward to a couple glasses of wine.” The Rams will fly to Oakland after Sunday’s game and will be using the Raiders’ training facility next week with practices set for Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday. They’ll bus to San Jose on Saturday. When the Rams entered November with a winning record for the first time since 2006, reasoning for the trip seemed sound because they’d be seeking every possible edge to contend for a playoff spot. Then they lost five in a row, but decided not to alter the plan. “You can appreciate how difficult it is for support staff and an
organization to get things set up and prepared so we can come in there and just hit the ground running on Monday,” Fisher said. “Everybody’s been through it before and we’re prepared.” Arizona and Baltimore tried this idea earlier in the season. The Cardinals stayed at Greenbrier Resort in West Virginia and practiced at the Saints’ training camp facility between games at Detroit on Oct. 11 and Pittsburgh Oct. 18. Though they lost to the Steelers, they were happy with the way it worked out, and haven’t lost since. Two years ago, the Cardinals practiced in Tampa between games against the Saints and Buccaneers, and then beat Tampa Bay. The Ravens did it at the start of the season. Between games at Denver and Oakland, they practiced at San Jose State, then lost to the Raiders in Week 2. Though the Rams won their final two home games of the season, last weekend they were eliminated from playoff consideration for the 12th consecutive season. Now, the impetus is simply on finishing strong. “I haven’t done this before so I couldn’t tell you if it’s a good idea or not,” tight end Jared Cook said. “It might be lighter on your legs with less travel, but I have no idea. I guess we’ll see.”
want a little more excitement. “Let Hauschka go out there and play some ping pong.” No, the other differences in the 2015 Sherman are more nuanced, according to Carroll. Far deeper, in a team-dynamics way, than that the brash persona on the field. “It’s different,” Carroll said. “When you saw him on the rise, he was battling for everything he could get. He still does that, but he has a perspective now. I think he has a voice that’s listened to differently because of all he’s been through and how he’s handled himself over time. “He does handle himself in a manner that draws the respect of other players. He also has a tremendous point of view that he presents whenever he’s given the opportunity. He presents that, and I think people look up to that. I think his power as a leader has grown.” As for the Sherman known for towering over fallen opponents, trash-talking on the field and taunting opposing fans: Remember the turkey he gleefully munched on for NBC television at the 49ers’ logo on Thanksgiving night 2014 in Santa Clara — moments before he called Niners’ fans “mediocre”? “Haven’t you noticed how he’s still very demonstrative? It’s directed towards what’s going on in the game and the guys that he’s playing with,” Carroll said. “I think he’s become a very responsible teammate and he understands his role, and he just lets his energy go and has fun with it, too. He loves the game and gets excited. He turns it towards his teammates more so than where it used to go.”
Such as Dec. 6 during the blowout win at Minnesota. Sherman ran down the Seahawks’ sideline as Baldwin, his teammate at Stanford, finished off a 53-yard touchdown catch. Then he tapped his wrist as if it was a watch, the receivers’ favorite, secret expression among themselves. “I think he’s very pointed in that,” Carroll said of Sherman with his teammates. “And he gets it and understands the power, that it’s been a marvelous part of the makeup of our team.” One other 2015 difference in Sherman is way more obvious than locker-room chemistry. And more life-altering. He became a father for the first time. Baby boy Rayden was born to girlfriend Ashley Moss four days after February’s final-play Super Bowl loss to New England. How has that changed him? “Well, I don’t get to keep my footballs anymore. He tries to take them and chew on them,” Sherman said. “But other than that, you just try to make sure you don’t put anything on tape that your son’s going to come back and ask you about, or look at and laugh. Try your best not to get embarrassed.” So how grand a gift did Sherman get for Rayden on his first Christmas? “I’m going to get him a ball pit, things that will keep him occupied,” Sherman said, smiling. “But he’s not getting anything super nice until he earns it. Got to at least be able to talk or something to earn a gift. “I’m not going to spoil him just to be spoiling him.”
first two — to Mississippi State and Nebraska — but won seven of their eight games against Conference USA opponents before losing to Western Kentucky in the C-USA championship game. This game against UW, USM coach Todd Monken said, will serve as “a measuring stick.” The Golden Eagles boast one of the nation’s most prolific offenses — they average 40.6 points and 519.8 yards per game — but haven’t faced a defense as stout as Washington’s this season. “We targeted this game from a few weeks out that we wanted to play here,” Monken said earlier this week. “We wanted to play against a really good opponent. We got that. I’ve got a lot of respect for Chris and
what he’s done, starting at Boise and then, obviously, taking over at Washington. They’ve got a really good football team, fun to watch.” For freshmen like quarterback Jake Browning and tailback Myles Gaskin — and the numerous other freshmen and sophomores who played important roles for UW this season — Saturday represents another chance to build game experience heading into 2016. For seniors like Taniela Tupou and Siosifa Tufunga, both of whom spoke at Wednesday’s press conference, this bowl game is the last time they’ll take the field in a Washington uniform. “It will be a wonderful place,” Tupou said, “for both of us to finish our college careers.”
to do much after a 3-9 record last year but rallied behind seven returning starters on each side of the ball. And former walk-on Luke Falk excelled at quarterback. He leads the nation’s top-ranked passing offense (397 yards per game) with a nationleading 4,266 yards and 36 TDs with eight interceptions. “There’s only a few teams in the country that play that way,” Scott said of the Cougars. “They’re a unique challenge for us.” Just as important for WSU was the improvement of its defense. Leach said it was one of the biggest reasons the Cougars finished third in the Pac12 North behind Stanford and Oregon and are playing in a bowl game. “I thought they got better as the year went on, especially considering how many young guys we broke in,” he said.
Washington State isn’t the only team that throws. Brad Kaaya leads Miami’s No. 27-ranked pass offense and has thrown for 3,019 yards and 15 TDs with just four interceptions. He has passed such notables as Bernie Kosar and Vinny Testaverde on Miami’s all-time list. “They’ve got good speed and they’re big up front,” Washington State defensive coordinator Alex Grinch said. “(Kaaya) has done a real nice job directing their offense this year. He’s as talented as anybody in our conference.” The Sun Bowl has been played in a snowstorm a few times through its long history. It looks as though this game will miss that, but barely. Showers are expected during the day, with the moisture turning to snow Saturday night. More snow is expected Sunday.

Dig about weight stings months later Dear Abby: I recently went on a cruise with several other women. I was friendly with one of them, but didn’t know the others. I am overweight. One of the other women, “Dolores,” was also overweight, heavier than me, in fact. She’s very proud of being Christian, but she made the comment, in front of several other people, that she didn’t mind going places with me because with me around she didn’t feel so fat. I was so stunned I remained silent. Actually, I was afraid that if I spoke I’d say too much, but I felt very hurt and ashamed. Even though I have tried to ignore it, this has bothered me for months and I don’t know what to do. Should I say something to Dolores or continue to ignore it? I don’t really want to be friends with her now because I don’t know what kind of snide remark may come out of her mouth next. And I certainly don’t want to go anywhere with her again. — Taken Aback In Texas Dear Taken Aback: When mankind was created, a delete button should have been installed at the end of our tongues. However, it’s possible our creator thought common sense would suffice. Obviously, Dolores was elsewhere when it was handed out. While her comment was tactless, it says far more about how she feels about herself than it does about you. Because this is still bothering you, I don’t think it would be at all out of line for you to tell her how hurtful her comment was. Dear Abby: I’m 17 and just started my junior year. I’m in an advanced program that my school offers because I want to RIP HAYWIRE

get into an international college and need to take these classes to get noticed. I’m just over a month in, and I’m losing it. I have a job, I play soccer and I’m the lead in a school production. On top of that, I have an insane workload I wasn’t prepared for and I’m trying to cope with discovering that I’m not straight. With everything going on, I’ve been having meltdowns nearly every day. I leave class sometimes just to hide in the bathroom. I spend hours doing homework and still don’t get everything done I need to. Last year, four or five of my classmates left school because of mental breakdowns in this program. I’m afraid I’m burning out, too. What should I do? Should I drop out of the program or seek help? — Scared And Stressed In New York Dear Scared: The first thing to do is talk about all of this with a counselor at your school. If you are at the point where you must leave class and “hide,” you need more help than I can offer in a letter. If counseling is available, or your course load can be modified, you should go in that direction. But dropping out should be your last resort and only after having discussed it with your parents and your counselor, because there may be other options.

SERVICES HOROSCOPE
Happy Birthday: Don’t feel as if you are being pulled in too many directions. Take charge and set the standard instead of living up to what someone else wants you to do. Know and understand your capabilities, and stop waiting for someone else to make the first move. Take ownership of your life and turn your dreams into a reality. Your numbers are 4, 10, 23, 29, 34, 45, 47. ARIES (March 21-April 19): Don’t make decisions or changes based on emotions. Your tendency to overreact will lead to regret. Work on your mental and emotional outlook and make positive changes by signing up for courses or improving your image or resume. ★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Invite friends over or relax at home with your family. Talks will lead to some interesting opinions regarding your professional direction and current lifestyle. A romantic evening will bring you closer to the one you love. ★★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You’ll be looking ahead when you should be clearing up unfinished business. Self-improvement, taking a day of rest or revising your to-do list will be fruitful and keep you out of trouble. Use your energy to make personal improvements. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Memories will fill your day. Talking with people who have a unique perspective on life will open your mind to a host of interesting possibilities that you can explore in the future. Arguing will be a waste of time. Be mindful. ★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Do something for the people who have helped you in the past. If you decide to travel, make a point of going somewhere with someone who can offer you knowledge and information. Make subtle changes to your surroundings. ★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Enjoy getting to-
