DEA: Pot to stay listed as dangerous
NO MEDICAL VALUE, IT SAYS
‘Very disappointing’
to Gregoire, who sought
drug relisting in 2011
By ROB HOTAKAINEN
McClatchy Washington Bureau (TNS)
WASHINGTON — Delivering a
big blow to backers of pot legaliza­
tion, the Obama administration
said Thursday that it would keep
marijuana classified as one of the
nation’s most dangerous drugs,
similar to heroin and LSD.
The long­awaited decision by the
U.S. Drug Enforcement Administra­
tion (DEA) keeps intact a 1970 law
that lists marijuana as a Schedule 1
drug, one defined as having no
medical value. That runs counter to
decisions made by 25 states — and
the District of Columbia — that
have already approved use of the
drug as medicine.
The DEA’s ruling shocked legal­
ization supporters, many of whom
had considered President Obama
an ally after the Justice Department
decided in 2013 to allow Washing­
ton state and Colorado to sell recre­
ational marijuana and thought it
would be Obama who would finally
remove marijuana from the list that
includes LSD and heroin.
On Thursday night, legalization
advocates scheduled a protest to
throw marijuana seeds on the
White House lawn to show their
dismay.
“While I haven’t read it, the out­
come puts the DEA totally out of
touch with the Justice Department,

fession, patients and the public,”

former governor of Washington

SHIFTS $81 MILLION
FOR WORK ON VACCINE
Money running out due

Gamers from all over the world came to compete and watch Thursday at The International Dota 2 Championships at KeyArena.
The team of five digital heroes —
among them, an archer, a shape­
shifter and a bat­riding imp — van­
quished the last of their foes. A roar
went up from the crowd of a few
thousand spectators.
The virtual gladiators’ human
pilots high­fived and hugged in a
soundproof booth. The team, mem­
bers of a video­gaming squad from
the Philippines called TNC, stepped
out onto the stage of Seattle’s Key­
Arena to acknowledge their fans.
Their victory Thursday morning
kept TNC alive for the $9 million
top prize on the biggest stage in
e­sports, as competitive video gam­
ing is known. Picked to finish last in
this week’s professional “Dota 2”
video­gaming tournament, TNC
instead became a crowd favorite
during an improbable run that
included an upset of the tourna­
ment favorites.
Along with 15 other teams, TNC
came to this week’s “The Interna­
tional” tournament in search of a
share of a $20 million prize pool,
the largest in the history of e­sports.
The weeklong annual tourna­
ment, which continues through
Saturday, draws thousands of fans
live, and hundreds of thousands
more online, a marquee event in an
increasingly popular spectator sport
for the generation raised on high­
definition video games and the
internet.

WASHINGTON — The Obama
administration Thursday said it
was shifting $81 million from
biomedical research and anti­
poverty and health­care pro­
grams to pay for the develop­
ment of a Zika vaccine, resorting
to extraordinary measures be­
cause Congress had failed to
approve new funding to combat
the virus.
Sylvia Mathews Burwell, the
secretary of health and human
services, told members of Con­
gress in a letter that without the
diverted funds, the National
Institutes of Health (NIH) and
the Biomedical Advanced Re­
search and Development Au­
thority would run out of money
to confront the mosquito­borne
illness by the end of the month.
That would force the develop­
ment of a vaccine to stop at a
critical time, as locally acquired
cases of Zika infection increase
in Miami.
Government scientists have
identified the most promising
Zika vaccine and have started
human trials, but the congressio­
nal impasse has forced them to
borrow money intended for
crucial work on cancer, diabetes,
Ebola and other deadly diseases.

top Zika experts Thursday in

272 TO 512 YEARS
Cold water, slow
metabolism could play
roles in long lives
OCTAVIO PASSOS / EUROPEAN PRESSPHOTO AGENCY
By SETH BORENSTEIN
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — In the
cold waters of the Arctic, a
denizen of the deep lurked
for centuries. Now scientists
calculate that this female
Greenland shark was the
Earth’s oldest living animal
with a backbone.
They estimated that the
gray shark, part of the spe­
cies named after Greenland,
could be 392 years old and
died only recently. That
conclusion puts the entire
species at the top of the lon­
gevity list.
Using a novel dating tech­
nique, an international team
of biologists and physicists
estimated the age of 28 dead
female Greenland sharks
based on tissue in their eyes.
Eight of the sharks were
probably 200 years or older
and two likely date back
more than three centuries,
according to a study pub­
lished Thursday in the jour­
nal Science.
Until now, that record
holder was a bowhead whale
that hit 211 years old, ac­
cording to study lead author
Julius Nielsen and AnAge, an
animal longevity database.
But the new number, 392,
doesn’t complete the story.
The oldest shark could actual­
ly be 120 years older, he said.
Nielsen and his colleagues
used radiocarbon dating and
statistical methods to mea­
sure the sharks’ ages. The
tools can only provide accu­
rate age ranges for each spec­
imen, not an exact age.

THE WORLD
JULIUS NIELSEN VIA AP
A Greenland shark returns to the deep and cold waters of the Uummannaq Fjord in
northwestern Greenland during a tag­and­release program in Norway and Greenland.
“We are 95 percent certain
that it is between 272 and
512 years,” Nielsen said.
“This is the first time ever
anyone has made an age
range of uncertainty of 240
years and they still consider
it a success.”
To calculate the ages, the
researchers studied the eye
lenses of each shark they
found. The eye lenses first
develop when the sharks are
still inside their mothers, and
as time goes by, they grow
like onions, adding layer
after layer of tissue. By cut­
ting away the layers and
analyzing the nucleus of the
center of the eye lens, the
team can gauge how old each
shark is. Similar techniques
have been used to estimate
the age of bowhead whales.
All the sharks the team
analyzed were females that
were already dead. Previous
studies had determined that
the sharks become sexually
mature when they are about
13 feet long. The new study
determined that those that
size or bigger were at least
150 years old. Males were
left out because they were
harder to find, but the team
thinks life expectancy and
the age when they reach
adulthood will be similar.
Some animals without
backbones live longer. An
ocean quahog, a clam, lived
507 years and two different
types of sponges are said to
survive for 15,000 and 1,500
years.
While not surprised that
Greenland sharks live a long
time, “I’m really shocked by
the magnitude of that lon­
gevity,” wrote Christopher
Lowe, director of the shark
lab at California State Uni­
versity, Long Beach. He
wasn’t part of the study but
praised it as creative and
compelling.
Greenland sharks are
found throughout the North
Atlantic. They are plump and
gray, and many have a char­
acteristic parasite latched to
the corner of one or both
eyes. Researchers aren’t sure
what the parasites do, but
they are ubiquitous among
the species.
The sharks are slow­grow­
ing, adding about a centime­
ter a year. The biggest in the
study was about 16.5 feet,
but they can potentially grow
larger than 18 feet. A behe­
moth that big could be
around 400 or 500 years old,
according to Nielsen’s esti­
mates.
The cold water and the
slow metabolism that comes
with it might have something
to do with their long lives,
Nielsen said. Lowe, in an
email, said “the rule of
thumb is deep and cold = old
when it comes to fishes.”
“I don’t know why they get
as old, but I hope someone
will find out,” Nielsen said.

Polio: In a serious setback to the drive to eradicate polio,
two cases of paralysis caused by the virus have been
detected in northeast Nigeria, the World Health Organi­
zation (WHO) said. The discovery dashed the hopes of
declaring the continent polio­free soon. Nigeria’s last
case of wild polio virus was reported in July 2014. The
continent’s last was reported in Somalia a month after
that. The WHO requires three years with no confirmed
cases before declaring a region polio­free.
Blasts: Six bomb attacks across Thailand in less than 24

also reporting that another explosion occurred in the
seaside resort of Hua Hin, less than 12 hours after a
separate bomb attack in the same city killed one person
and injured 20 more.
Quake: A strong magnitude­7.2 earthquake struck in the
Pacific Ocean near Vanuatu and New Caledonia on Fri­

Trump acknowledges campaign
has rough spots, could fall short
CA M P A IG N T R A I L
ORLANDO, Fla. — Stray­
ing from his trademark bra­
vado, Donald Trump ac­
knowledged Thursday that
his presidential campaign is
facing challenges and could
ultimately fall short — a rare
expression of humility by the
Republican presidential
nominee.
Trump’s most explicit
concession came as he plead­
ed for support at a gathering
of evangelical ministers,
where Trump observed he
was “having a tremendous
problem in Utah.” The same
day, the billionaire celebrity
acknowledged that his lack
of political correctness could
cost him the election if Amer­
icans reject his blunt ap­
proach.
“We’re having a problem,”
Trump told the ministers,
adding that the next presi­
dent could get to nominate
up to five high­court justices.
“It could cost us the Supreme
Court.”
After trouncing 16 chal­
lengers in the Republican
primary, Trump is encoun­
tering worrying signs as his
campaign moves into the
general election. Democrat
Hillary Clinton’s lead over
Trump in national polls has
widened in recent days,
while a number of fellow
Republicans have declared
they won’t support their own
party’s presidential nominee.
Trump’s exercise in self­
awareness was a marked
departure from his usual
tenor on the campaign trail,
where for months at rallies
he would tick through poll
numbers showing him win­
ning as if they were sports
scores of his favorite team.
On Thursday, Trump was
reduced to citing a poll that
actually showed him a few
points behind Clinton and
arguing the race between
them was close. Asked by
CNBC how he planned to
reverse the advantage that
Clinton has opened over him,
Trump said he simply
planned to do “the same
thing I’m doing right now.”
“At the end, it’s either
going to work, or I’m going
to, you know, I’m going to
have a very, very nice, long
vacation,” Trump said.
Trump’s unusually candid
reflection about the uncer­
tainty of his electoral pros­
pects came as he’s struggled
to keep the focus on his op­
ponent and avoid unwanted
distractions.
Earlier this week he caused
a major stir with comments
about the Second Amend­
ment that were perceived as
advocating violence against
Clinton, and found himself
facing questions yet again
after declaring Wednesday
that President Obama was
the “founder” of the Islamic
State group — a claim that’s
patently false.
Those dust­ups reinforced
concerns among Trump
supporters that a lack of
discipline could imperil his
chances. Even as he was
given opportunities Thurs­
day to clean up his quip
about Obama, Trump in­
stead took it further Thurs­
day.

RYAN GARZA / DETROIT FREE PRESS
On CNBC’s “Squawk Box,”
when an interviewer pressed
Trump on the propriety of
claiming Obama had found­
ed the Islamic State group,
Trump said it was “absolute­
ly” the case and added: “Is
there something wrong with
saying that? Are people com­
plaining that I said he was
the founder of ISIS?”
Later, in an interview with
the conservative radio host
Hugh Hewitt, Trump was
given an opportunity to clari­
fy. But he did not budge.
“You meant that he creat­
ed the vacuum, he lost the
peace,” Hewitt suggested,
leaving Trump an opening.
“No, I meant he’s the
founder of ISIS. I do,” Trump
said. “He was the most valu­
able player. I give him the
most valuable player award.
I give her, too, by the way,
Hillary Clinton.”
Hewitt replied, “But he’s
not sympathetic to them,”
referring to Obama. “He
hates them. He’s trying to kill
them.”
“I don’t care,” Trump said.
“He was the founder. His, the
way he got out of Iraq was
that, that was the founding of
ISIS, OK?”
Meanwhile, a GOP letter
sent to Republican National
Committee Chairman Reince
Priebus warns that Trump’s
“divisiveness, recklessness,
incompetence, and record­
breaking unpopularity risk
turning this election into a
Democratic landslide,” ac­
cording to a draft obtained
by The Associated Press.
At least 70 Republicans
have signed the letter so far,
according to Republican
operative Andrew Weinstein,
who said it included five
former members of Congress
and 16 former RNC staffers.
Clinton rebuts
Trump on economy
WARREN, Mich. — In a
full­throttled rejection of
Donald Trump’s economic
policies, Hillary Clinton on
Thursday accused him of
feigning a connection to the
working man, while advocat­
ing policies that would “work
for him and his friends, at the
expense of everyone else.”
Seeking to chip away at the
perception among working­
class white voters that Trump
is the economic populist in
the race, Clinton said the
Republican nominee merely
paid “lip service” to being on
the side of average Ameri­
cans.
Clinton referred to the tax
cuts on the wealthy and
corporations that Trump
presented in a speech in
Detroit on Monday, saying
he “wants to give trillions in
tax breaks to people like
himself,” which would lead
to broad cuts in spending on
education, health care and
environmental protection.
Although she has attacked
Trump’s business record for
months, her address Thurs­
day presented the first op­
portunity for Clinton to deliv­
er a detailed point­by­point
rebuttal to the economic
proposals Trump unveiled
this week.
The nearly back­to­back
addresses on the economy
put into sharp relief their
contrasting positions on an
issue that has preoccupied
voters throughout the
lengthy presidential contest,
with Trump seizing on eco­
nomic dislocation in mixing
populist anti­trade positions
with traditionally Republi­
can tax cutting, and Clinton
seeing a strong government
hand in creating jobs and
driving up wages.
Clinton called for making
the biggest infrastructure
investment since World
War II — $275 billion — and
urged aggressive spending
on green energy to counter
China and Germany.
And she repeated her
plans to make public colleges
and universities tuition­free
for in­state middle­class
families.
She sharply criticized key
elements of Trump’s tax­cut
plans, particularly the elimi­
nation of the estate tax and
his plan to cut the corporate
tax rate to 15 percent from
35 percent, calling it the
“Trump Loophole” and say­
ing the plan would “allow
him to pay less than half the
current tax rate on income
from many of his own com­
panies.”
She characterized her
opponent’s economic doc­
trine as “an even more ex­
treme version of the failed
theory of trickle­down eco­
nomics” mixed with his own
“outlandish Trumpian ideas
that even many Republicans
reject.”
And she rejected Trump’s
promises to ease financial
regulation and do away with
the Consumer Financial
Protection Bureau, which he
calls detrimental to average
Americans.
“Even conservative experts
say Trump’s agenda will pull
our economy back into reces­
sion,” and cause the loss of
3.4 million jobs, Clinton said,
pointing to an analysis for
Moody’s Analytics led by
economist Mark Zandi, who
advised Sen. John McCain’s
presidential campaign in
2008.
Reid bets Clinton
would pick Garland
WASHINGTON — Senate
Democratic Leader Harry
Reid says he is convinced
that Democratic presidential
candidate Hillary Clinton
will nominate Judge Merrick
Garland to the Supreme
Court if she is elected presi­
dent.
Senate Republicans have
blocked Garland’s confirma­
tion since President Obama
nominated him in March.
Senate Majority Leader
Mitch McConnell says the
next president will choose
the person to replace the late
Supreme Court Justice An­
tonin Scalia.
Reid said on a conference
call Thursday that he is pre­
dicting Clinton will pick
Garland “with some degree
of credibility.”
A spokeswoman for Reid
later said he had not spoken
to Clinton directly about
whether she would nominate
Garland and was speculat­
ing.
He praised Garland and
said Clinton’s team would
not want to “rock the boat”
with a new pick.
Garland is the chief judge
for the U.S. Court of Appeals
for the District of Columbia
Circuit.
Sanders buys home
on Lake Champlain
SOUTH HERO, Vt. — U.S.
Sen. Bernie Sanders, an
advocate for the working
people, has bought his third
house, for nearly $600,000.
Fresh off the presidential
campaign trail, the self­de­
scribed Democratic socialist
bought a seasonal waterfront
home in North Hero, Vt., in
the Lake Champlain islands,
for $575,000, as first report­
ed by Seven Days weekly
newspaper.
Sanders and his wife also
own a row house in Washing­
ton, D.C., and a home in
Burlington, Vt., a Sanders
spokesman said Thursday.
His wife, Jane, said her
family recently let go of a
home they had owned in
Maine, enabling the couple
to buy the place on Lake
Champlain.
She said her family had
owned a lake home in Maine
since 1900 but didn’t have
time to go there in recent
years, especially since the
death of her parents.

According to an employee

has no management struc­

Valve’s structure came while
he was at Microsoft, working

Newell was struck that
Windows, the work of hun­
dreds of engineers and a vast

less popular among PC users
than “Doom,” a first­person

“To me, that was a light­

“Dota” has a similar cre­

“Dota” — short for Defense

with teams of up to five play­

and pleading for emergency

“We are right now in a race
against time to get the best
vaccine,” Fauci said.
The first person was inject­
ed Aug. 3 with the vaccine,
which uses a piece of DNA
called a plasmid that is engi­
neered to produce Zika pro­
teins that prompt the body to
launch an immune response.
The vaccine cannot cause
someone to become infected
with Zika.
The continental United
States has 1,962 cases of
Zika, and there are 6,618
more cases in Puerto Rico
and other U.S. territories,
according to the CDC. Bur­
well said 15 infants had been
born with Zika­related birth
defects. The virus can cause
abnormal brain develop­
ment and other serious de­
fects in children born to
infected mothers.
The local spread of the
illness in the continental
United States, with the first
cases reported in late July,
has raised the political stakes
surrounding the federal
government’s response.
Obama and congressional
Republicans have been at
odds for most of the year
over Zika. In February,
Obama requested $1.9 bil­
lion in emergency funding.
Republicans balked, de­
manding a more detailed
accounting of where the
money would go.
Lawmakers have feuded

and how it should be spent.
Last month, Democrats
blocked consideration of a
Republican measure that
would have allocated
$1.1 billion to fight Zika but
included provisions that
would have banned funding
for Planned Parenthood to
provide contraception relat­
ed to the virus, which can be
sexually transmitted.
The deadlock prompted
the White House in April to
shift $589 million in Ebola
funding to the Zika effort,
about two­thirds of it desig­
nated for domestic use. On
Thursday, Burwell said that
her department had used
most of that money and that
it would be gone by the end
of August.
“The failure to pass a Zika
emergency supplemental has
forced the administration to
choose between delaying
critical vaccine development
work and raiding other wor­
thy government programs to
temporarily avoid these
delays,” Burwell wrote.
Democrats seized on the
announcement to berate
Republicans for failing to
provide additional money for
Zika. At a news conference,
Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D­Calif.,
the minority leader, called on
House Speaker Paul Ryan,
R­Wis., to bring Congress
back to advance such a mea­
sure.
“Every possible option is
being exhausted, and now
we’re going into the National
Institutes of Health, which is
supposed to be a priority,”
Pelosi said.

to squeeze maximum politi­

issue.
Burwell said she would
transfer to the Zika efforts
$34 million in NIH funds that
had been designated to find
treatments for other diseas­
es, including cancer and
diabetes.
An additional $47 million
will be transferred to the
Biomedical Advanced Re­
search and Development
Authority, which supports
the development of drugs
and vaccines to respond to
public­health emergencies.
That money will come from a
variety of accounts, includ­
ing $19 million from a pro­
gram that supplies heating­
oil subsidies for low­income
families and $4 million from
substance­abuse programs
such as those for opioid ad­
diction.
Even then, Burwell said,
the additional money will
last only through next
month, at which point agen­
cies would have to “severely
curtail many of their critical
efforts” against Zika without
action from Congress.
In the past four months,
the CDC has spent $60 mil­
lion to help states protect
pregnant women, $25 mil­
lion to strengthen their Zika
preparedness and response
plans, and $16 million to
help them create data­collec­
tion systems to quickly detect
microcephaly and other
Zika­related syndromes.
Almost two­thirds of
Americans are concerned
about the virus spreading in
the coming months, accord­
ing to poll results released
Thursday by Suffolk Univer­
sity in Boston.
Fauci singled out Puerto
Rico and Florida as epicen­
ters of the virus, which is
carried mainly by the Aedes
aegypti mosquito but also
can be transmitted sexually
from an infected partner.
“Florida has a semitropical
climate,” he said. “Right now
in August of 2016, they have
a considerable case of travel­
related cases, and they have
the mosquitoes.” The Florida
Health Department on
Thursday identified three
more cases of mosquito­
borne Zika, all in Miami­
Dade County, bringing the
state’s total to 25.
The state also reported 21
new travel­related infec­
tions, with 17 in Broward
County, two in Hernando
County and one in Miami­
Dade and Seminole counties.
Overall, Florida has 486
cases of Zika, more than any
other state except New York.
The two states each have
some 1 million Puerto Rican
residents.
Puerto Rico is facing a
looming Zika epidemic with
6,475 cases, only 30 of which
weren’t locally acquired,
according to the CDC.

Los Angeles Times (TNS)
LOS ANGELES — South­
ern California is experienc­
ing its worst smog in years
this summer as heat and
stagnant weather increase
the number of bad­air days
and drive up ozone pollu­
tion to levels not seen since
2009.
Where pollution is worst,
hospitals and asthma clin­
ics are reporting increases
in patients seeking treat­
ment for respiratory illness,
their breathing difficulties
exacerbated by the persis­
tent heat and pollution.
Ozone, the lung­searing
gas in smog that triggers
asthma and other health
problems, has exceeded
federal standards on 91
days so far this year com­
pared with 67 days over
the same period last year,
according to South Coast
Air Quality Management
District data through Mon­
day.
In June, only four days

ozone levels violated feder­
al health standards every
day except July 31. And it’s
not getting any better. So
far, every day of August has
been over the federal limit
of 70 parts per billion.
“We’ve had a lot of high
days, we’ve had high peaks
and we’re about halfway

said Philip Fine, deputy
executive officer for the

Fine blamed the increase
in smog on abnormally hot,

berg said the agency had
concluded that marijuana
still has a high potential for
abuse, has no accepted medi­
cal use, and is not safe even
under medical supervision.
“The petition is, therefore,
hereby denied,” Rosenberg
told the governors.
Rosenberg elaborated in
an interview with National
Public Radio, saying he gave
“enormous weight” to advice
from the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA).
“This decision isn’t based
on danger,” said Rosenberg,
who was appointed by
Obama in 2015. “This deci­
sion is based on whether
marijuana, as determined by
the FDA, is a safe and effec­
tive medicine. And it’s not.”
The decision means that
the Obama administration is
now backing the same policy
approved in 1970, when
Congress and President
Nixon teamed up to pass the
Controlled Substances Act,
signaling the start of the
nation’s war on drugs.
The National Organization
for the Reform of Marijuana
Laws said the DEA had cho­
sen to reaffirm a “flat­earth
position,” while the National
Cannabis Industry Associa­
tion said the ruling “flies in
the face of objective science
and overwhelming public
opinion.”
Marijuana opponents
hailed the decision and pre­
dicted it would stop the mo­
mentum of the nation’s legal­
ization movement.
“To be honest, it vindicates
us,” said Kevin Sabet, presi­
dent of the anti­legalization
group Smart Approaches to
Marijuana, one of the few
who had predicted the DEA
would not reschedule the
drug.
Sabet said the ruling
would “raise eyebrows in the
legalization community”
among those who had pres­
sured the DEA to reschedule
marijuana but added: “This
now sets them way back.”
Legalization backers had
hoped that Obama would
end his presidency with a
push for full­scale legaliza­
tion. But with federal laws
still on the books banning the
drug, states will continue to
operate in a legal gray area.
“President Obama always
said he would let science —
and not ideology — dictate
policy, but in this case his
administration is upholding
a failed drug­war approach
instead of looking at real,
existing evidence that mari­
juana has medical value,”
said Tom Angell, the chair­
man of Marijuana Majority,
another pro­legalization
group. He said states should
be allowed to set their own
policies, “unencumbered by
an outdated ‘Reefer Mad­
ness’ mentality that some in
law enforcement still choose
to cling to.”
In 2015, the DEA spent
$18 million to destroy mari­
juana plants under its “can­
nabis eradication” program.
And Rosenberg angered pot
advocates last year when he
dismissed the possibility that
smoking marijuana had any
medical value, calling the
idea “a joke.”
On Capitol Hill, Oregon
Democratic Rep. Earl Blume­
nauer said the DEA’s decision
was “not right or fair” with a
majority of Americans now
backing full legalization.
“It is imperative, as part of
the most progressive adminis­
tration on marijuana in histo­
ry, that the DEA work to end
the failed prohibition of mari­
juana,” Blumenauer said.
With Obama set to leave
office in January, the DEA’s
ruling will up the pressure on
Democratic presidential
candidate Hillary Clinton to
follow through on her prom­
ise to reschedule marijuana if
she moves to the White
House.
She’s also running on a
Democratic Party platform,
approved last month, that for
the first time calls on the
federal government to create
a “pathway” toward legaliza­
tion. Clinton and her Repub­
lican opponent, Donald
Trump, have said they’d
allow states to make the calls
on regulating marijuana,
following Obama’s lead.
one form of consumption.
There’s no guarantee
Washington would gain
from the monopoly’s end. It
would have to win federal
approval to grow or conduct
certain studies.
But Donovan sees the
possibility of the UW’s gain­
ing federal licenses for the
kind of randomized tightly
controlled medical trials that
could inform later federal
decisions about the value of
medical marijuana. “I see
this as a first step,” he said.
Carlini is not as optimistic.
“It is a change in the right
direction, but not enough,
not even close to enough,”
she said.
In part, that’s because
some researchers perceive a
historical bias by the federal
government to fund studies
into the harms of pot but not
its benefits.
There is no federal edict
that bars studies of pot’s
medical benefits, Hudak
said. And he noted that
groups such as the American
Medical Association and the
American Academy of Pedi­
atrics have asked for “more
research, period.”
Jessica Tonani, CEO of a
Seattle biotech firm interest­
ed in cannabis research, said
some researchers will jump
through the hurdles to work
on a Schedule I drug. But she
believes universities will still
be deterred by marijuana’s
standing on par with heroin.
From a private­company
perspective, she said, the
“landscape looks exactly the
same as it did yesterday.”
Washington lawmakers
passed a law earlier this year
that paves the way for in­
state research divorced from
the federal government.
The problem had been
that our legalization law
allowed pot to be grown only
for sale in licensed stores.
The new law allows licensed
growing for research. Rules
remain to be written for its
implementation.
The DEA’s announcement
reinforces that private com­
panies have to step up in
states with legal marijuana,
Tonani said, to “address the
health and safety questions
around the use of the plant.”

stores trying to recapture their
appeal to consumers are making
plans to provide more experiences
like spas and restaurants, and
offer exclusive selections to trans­
form the stores into more of a

With shoppers increasingly
buying online or from niche re­

up with consumers who want a
different experience in stores than

Huffington is leaving her Post
for a new health, fitness venture
By SYDNEY EMBER
The New York Times
Arianna Huffington, who
helped found The Huffington
Post in 2005, is stepping down
as editor­in­chief of the publica­
tion.
In a note to employees Thurs­
day, Huffington said that she
would be focusing on her new
venture, a health­and­wellness
startup called Thrive Global.
“I fully expected to be able to
continue leading HuffPost while
also building Thrive Global,”
Huffington wrote. “But it be­
came clear that this was an
illusion as Thrive went from an
idea to a reality, with investors,
staff and offices.”
She added: “One of the
Thrive principles is knowing
when it’s time for a new chapter
to begin, and for me that time
has arrived.”
Huffington signed a new
four­year contract in June 2015
to stay on as chairwoman, presi­
Despite sales that dipped and
profit that plunged in its second
quarter, Nordstrom shares
soared Thursday after the com­
pany reported earnings that
handily beat investors’ expecta­
tions.
The Wall Street beat came
after several quarters of missing
expectations amid an overall
retail plunge that saw Nordstrom
announcing cuts of some 400
positions and department­store
king Macy’s announcing cuts of
more than 4,000.
Thursday offered a bit of cheer
amid that gloom, with Macy’s
and Kohl’s both reporting better
than expected results earlier in
the day.
That prompted a 17 percent
jump in Macy’s shares, a 16 per­
cent boost in Kohl’s, and even a
nearly 8 percent jump in Nord­
strom’s shares.
Nordstrom’s stock rose again
— by about 11 percent — once it
reported its results after the
market closed. It was trading
Thursday afternoon at $52.75.
Analysts voiced caution about
the unexpectedly good results,
however. “They raised the bar a
little bit. But there’s nothing to
suggest we’re back to the hey­
day,” said Richard Church, man­
aging director for retail for in­
vestment­research firm Discern
Group.
Nordstrom attributed the
improved performance to con­
servative and careful manage­
ment of its inventory and expens­
es, and the strength of its crucial
anniversary sale, which logged
an all­time high in sales volume.
The company reported earn­
ings of 67 cents per share, down
39 percent from the same quar­
ter a year ago, and total sales of
$3.65 billion, down 1.4 percent.
The earnings topped Wall
Street forecasts of 55 cents per
share, while sales met expecta­
tions of $3.65 billion, according
to a Zacks consensus estimate.

would work together.
In her note, Huffington,
66, said her contract in­
cluded a clause that al­
lowed her to start a new
venture. She had intended
to remain at The Huffing­
ton Post but realized that
was not possible.
“This has been a very
difficult decision, but in
many ways an inevitable
one, given my commit­
ment to building Thrive
into a company that has a
global impact on how we
work and live,” she wrote.
Since The Huffington
Post was founded 11
years ago, it has become
one of the biggest online
media organizations. In
2011, the publication was
acquired by AOL for
$315 million, a hefty price
tag that signaled the rise
of digital media.
“Arianna is a visionary
who built The Huffington
Post into a truly transfor­
mative news platform,”
Tim Armstrong, the chief
executive of AOL, said in a
statement. “Today, The
Huffington Post is a firmly
established and celebrat­
ed news source, and AOL
and Verizon are commit­
ted to continuing its
growth and the ground­
breaking work Arianna
pioneered.”
The publication won a
Pulitzer Prize in 2012 and
has expanded globally in
the last several years.
It has a robust staff that
writes original articles,
but it is also known for
aggressive aggregation, a
practice that has at times
caused tension in the
media industry.
Huffington has become
a powerful force in her
own right. She has pub­
lished several books on
health and wellness, in­
cluding “Thrive” and “The
Sleep Revolution,” and
she has become a champi­
on of a good night’s sleep.
But her outside inter­
ests have also raised ques­
tions about her commit­
ment to her publication
and whether she was
using it to promote her
interests.
She joined the board of
Uber in April, for instance,
a move that caused a stir
among newsroom em­
ployees, though she said
she would recuse herself
from coverage of the com­

of the anniversary sale this
year, part of the strong re­
sults from the sale will also
be reflected in third­quarter
earnings.
The company also boosted
its previous earnings outlook
of $2.50 to $2.70 per share
for the year, to $2.60 to
$2.75.
Yet beneath the earnings
beat, some troubling trends
remain.
Comparable sales —
meaning sales at stores open
at least a year — decreased
1.2 percent from the year­
ago period, in part due to the
shift in the anniversary sale
dates.
More troubling was that
Nordstrom’s full­line, brick­
and­mortar stores continued
to see declines, with compa­
rable sales down 6.5 percent.
Nordstrom’s full­line on­

comparable sales increasing

ing forward decisively to
build further on Macy’s heri­
tage as a preferred shopping
destination for fashion,
quality, value and conve­
nience,” said Terry Lun­
dgren, chairman and outgo­
ing CEO.
Macy’s had been a stellar
performer after the Great
Recession but has seen slow­
er sales growth in the past
year and a half. Under Lun­
dgren, the company looked
for growth opportunities like
buying upscale beauty brand
Bluemercury and is adding
services like same­day deliv­
ery.
The changes come against
the backdrop of declining
sales and customer traffic.
Kohl’s, which saw total
second­quarter sales drop
2.1 percent even as cutting
expenses helped its profit, is
similarly testing off­price
stores and smaller­format
stores, investing more in
e­commerce and sprucing up
its beauty business.
Nordstrom, which report­
ed revenue of $3.65 billion
for the second quarter, meet­
ing Wall Street forecasts, has
scaled back on inventory to
meet lower sales. But it’s also
focusing on brands that have
limited distribution like Ivy
Park and Madewell.
The Seattle­based retailer
also is personalizing its on­
line services. This fall, it’s
testing a mobile feature that
lets customers reserve prod­
ucts online and try them on
at the store.

What stands out about
Nordstrom and makes it
different from competitors

said in a conference call with
investors Thursday that its

portant role in attracting
new customers.
Those brands now make

pany’s top 20 fastest­grow­

offerings such as brow bars.
Elements of that renovation
will be incorporated across
other stores, Metrick said.
Saks also just rolled out new
technology from a startup
called Salesfloor that deliv­
ers personalized service for
its online shoppers.
Ken Perkins, president of
research firm Retail Metrics,
says the latest earnings re­
ports are somewhat encour­
aging, but department stores
have far to go.
“All the problems they’re
facing are not going away
anytime soon,” he said.
Sales at department stores
have been falling since the
early 2000s. Government
figures show they hit their
peak in January 2001, when
monthly sales came to
$19.9 billion. This June, that
figure had dropped 34 per­
cent to $13.2 billion, govern­
ment data show. And adjust­
ed for inflation, the statistics
show sales falling 50 percent
— from $27 billion in Janu­
ary 2001 to $13.4 billion in
June.
Long reliant on clothing
sales, department stores
have been squeezed as off­
price retailers like T.J. Maxx
add stores and lure shoppers
with discounted designer
brands and fast­fashion
retailers such as H&M offer
trendier items. Shoppers are
buying more and more cloth­
ing online, and Amazon.com
is expected to unseat Macy’s
next year as the largest on­
line clothing seller.
Overall, shoppers are
spending less on apparel and
shifting their discretionary
dollars elsewhere. U.S. ap­
parel sales have grown only
1 percent annually over the
past 15 years, in part due to
price deflation, according to
Morgan Stanley estimates.
Per unit, apparel prices have
shrunk 13 percent since
2001 to $20.22, Morgan
Stanley said.
For the back­to­school
season, children’s clothing
shipments dropped 13 per­
cent from a year earlier,
according to Panjiva, a re­
search firm that analyzes
imports.
“The department stores in
the beginning were known
for big­box stores that had
the best selection in each of
the categories they sold,”
said C. Britt Beemer, chair­
man of consumer­research
firm America’s Research
Group. “Now, they don’t
stand for anything.”
Productivity has also dete­
riorated. From 2006 to
2015, sales per square foot

The company’s expanded
loyalty program, which it

customers without a Nord­

success with about 1.5 mil­

Overall, Nordstrom now

about,” Co­President Erik
Nordstrom said during the
conference call.
Advisors.
More and more, depart­
ment stores have depended
on big discounts to lure
shoppers — a move that
hurts profits. And now, ma­
jor luxury brands like Coach
and Michael Kors that were a
key attraction are starting to
snub department stores as
they worry that constant
sales and promotions are
diluting the value of their
brands.
Ralph Lauren also plans to
become less­reliant on de­
partment stores.
Analysts believe more
brands could follow, and
that also more stores will
close.
Perkins believes it’s likely
because there is such a satu­
ration of retail square foot­
age. Green Street Advisors
released a report in spring
saying department stores
need to close about 800
stores to recoup their pro­
ductivity, about 20 percent
of all anchor real estate at
U.S. malls.
Metrick, standing
Wednesday evening near
Saks’ new outdoor cafe that
overlooks Manhattan’s Rock­
efeller Center, says there is
plenty of hope for depart­
ment stores that make them­
selves essential.
“Bad department stores
are dead,” he said. “Great
ones ... that’s where it’s go­
ing to be.”

Airlines are vulnerable to events beyond
their control — ups and downs of the econ­
omy, the price of oil, terrorism.
And perhaps now the Zika virus.
The first cases of local transmission on
American soil caused health authorities to
warn pregnant women to stay away from
an area in Miami. Analysts say some people
may be afraid to travel anywhere in Florida.
UBS analyst Darryl Genovesi says if Zika
cuts travel to Florida by 10 percent, the
earnings per share of U.S. airlines would
fall 5 percent on average.
Credit Suisse analyst Julie Yates calcu­
lates that one­third of JetBlue’s flying
touches Florida or the Caribbean, where
the virus is already active.
In the week after the director of the U.S.
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
declared “Zika is now here,” airlines with
the most exposure to Florida and the Carib­
bean — JetBlue, American, Allegiant and
Spirit — saw their stock prices generally fall
more than carriers with fewer flights to the
region.
The correlation isn’t perfect, however.
Delta shares had the second­biggest decline
despite limited exposure to the Caribbean
— but the airline reported disappointing
revenue per mile for July and suffered from
a computer outage that disrupted travel
this week.
Vulnerable? Ten airlines with exposure to the Zika virus and thier share price change since the
CDC announced that the Zika virus had arrived in the U.S.

Ignacio Vidales, another

he thinks the deforestation

“We think that it (defores­

Vidales said.
Authorities have begun to

maturity, if each bore 100
avocados a year — a fairly
low yield — those farmers
could make as much as
$500,000 annually from the
plot, a fortune for area farm­
ers.
“More than anything else,
it is economic pressure,”
Vidales said. “They have
seen that planting avocados
is more profitable than
planting corn, or other
crops, or even the forest.”

SEATTLE CAN’T AFFORD TO
BUILD EXPENSIVE PRECINCT
T
HE Seattle City Council should try harder to find a way to
lower the outrageous cost of the North Precinct police sta­
tion proposed by Mayor Ed Murray.
Small nips and tucks dis­
cussed this week do not make
the cost reasonable. They low­
ered the estimated cost from
$160 million to $149 million.
At $149 million, this still
appears to be the most expen­
sive police precinct in the
United States. Its price tag is
more than double that of an
architectural showpiece pre­
cinct built recently in New
York City, where construction
costs are higher.
Council discussion about the
project this week devolved
into a snippy exchange about
privilege and police conduct.
That distracted from the real
issue the council is supposed
to be addressing: how to get a
better deal for the public on a
project that was supposed to
cost $88.5 million.
There is no question Seattle
needs to replace its North Pre­
cinct. The current facility is
inadequate and decrepit.
But City Hall must do a bet­
ter job managing the cost of
such projects, especially with
looming budget challenges
and a long list of unmet needs.
In response to concerns
about North Precinct costs,
Murray’s administration pro­
posed reducing its parking
garage by half and deferring
some work. Shrinking the
garage had a minor effect on
cost but would significantly
reduce the precinct’s utility.
Deferring work could be
false economy. As anyone who
has remodeled knows, it can
end up costing more to leave a
project partly unfinished and
resume work at a later date.
Council members should not
be swayed by these minor
tweaks.
If they approve a precinct
that costs $60 million more
than its originally proposed
cost, council members would
be prioritizing showy design
over other needs in the city,
particularly in the north end.
In that area, some children
must walk to school in the
street or tiptoe along the edge
of ditches because the city has
long said it cannot afford side­
walks. The 2015 Move Seattle
levy funds only a portion of
this overdue work.
If the city stuck to its budget
on the North Precinct, it could
use the $60­million difference
to potentially pay for hun­
dreds of blocks of sidewalks.
Or that much money perhaps
could fund the construction of
five more libraries, communi­
ty centers or pools. One can
only imagine how many new
parks and trails it would fund.
Spending $149 million on a
precinct also undermines city
officials’ insistence that they
need special tax levies be­
cause they’re strapped by the
1­percent annual limit on the
overall property­tax levy.
If money is so tight, Seattle
should stick to the budget on
projects like the North Pre­
cinct.
Otherwise, this much­need­
ed building would stand as a
monument to the city’s folly
and fiscal mismanagement.

Shocking wave of murders of
mayors in Mexico
Andres Oppenheimer
Syndicated columnist
MEXICO CITY
— Most of Donald
Trump’s state­
ments about
Mexico are the
product of igno­
rance, racism and
demagoguery,
but the Republican candidate
would be delighted to read the
latest headlines in this country.
According to the news splashed
across the front pages, the Mexi­
can Association of Mayors is re­
questing urgent help from Presi­
dent Enrique Peña Nieto to stop a
wave of killings of city mayors. At
least five city mayors have been
killed so far this year, for a total
of 56 over the past 10 years, news
reports say.
The overwhelming majority of
these crimes remain unsolved, in
line with an overall pattern of
impunity for all crimes that are
committed in Mexico.
A study by the Center for Impu­
nity and Justice Studies of the
University of the Americas in
Puebla shows that Mexico has the
second­highest impunity rate —
after Philippines — in the world.
Only 7 percent of the crimes
that take place in Mexico are
reported to authorities, and less
than 1 percent of all criminals
end up in jail, the CESIJ’S newly
released “Index of Impunity in
Mexico 2016” says.
Most Mexicans don’t even re­
port crimes because they think it’s
a waste of time, and because they
don’t trust the police, polls show.
An old Mexican joke says that

attract the police!” Often, the
police shake down crime victims,
as well as criminals.
Gerardo Rodriguez Sanchez,
the co­author of the CESIJ’S im­
punity index, told me that most of
the mayors’ killings take place in
remote poverty­ridden areas that
are known for their poppy seed
plantations for heroin production.
There is virtually no presence
of federal or state police forces
nor judges in these rural towns.
Drug traffickers there want to
control local mayors, because it is
the mayors who appoint the only
existing law­enforcement offi­
cials.
But to put things in perspective,
Mexico is far down the list of
Latin America’s most violent
countries, and many U.S. cities
have higher murder rates than
Mexico’s.
There are about a dozen Latin
American and Caribbean coun­
tries with higher murder rates
than Mexico. Honduras has an
annual murder rate of 90 per
100,000 people. In Venezuela,
the rate is 54 per 100,000, while
in Belize it’s 45, in El Salvador it’s
41, and in Guatemala it’s 40.
Brazil’s murder rate is 25 per
100,000 people. By comparison,
Mexico’s annual murder rate is 21
per 100,000 people, according to
United Nations figures.
And while the United States has
a much lower overall homicide
rate than Mexico’s, U.S. cities
such as St. Louis, Detroit and New
Orleans have murder rates that
are roughly double those of Mexi­

things to police corruption, short­
ages of judges — the country has
only four judges per 100,000
people, compared to 10 judges
per 100,000 in the United States
— and overcrowded prisons.
My opinion: Trump’s assertions
about Mexico, such as his claim
that most Mexican undocument­
ed migrants in the United States
are “criminals” and “rapists,” are
preposterous. In fact, studies
show that the percentage of seri­
ous crimes carried out by Mexi­
can undocumented migrants is
significantly lower than that of
U.S.­born Americans.
And, as we saw above, Trump is
also misrepresenting the facts
when he singles out Mexico as
more violent than most countries,
as well as when he blames free
trade with Mexico for most U.S.
job losses. In fact, free trade with
Mexico has produced more win­
ners than losers on both sides,
according to the Wilson Center.
But Trump’s wild claims aside,
Mexico should seek international
help to solve its impunity prob­
lem, much like Guatemala suc­
cessfully did when it invited the
United Nations’ International
Commission against Impunity to
help rebuild its disastrous law
enforcement system.
The recent wave of murders of
Mexican mayors suggests that
Mexico’s drug­related violence,
which drew so much U.S. media
attention a few years ago, has not
slowed down, and that it must do
something drastic to reduce it.

Police fatally shot a man dur­

surrender and opened fire on
officers with a shotgun at a Tuk­
wila apartment building Thurs­
day night, Tukwila police said.
Officers were there because of
an earlier multicar crash near the
police department. One of the
drivers in the crash reported he
had been shot and wounded by
an acquaintance at a nearby
apartment around 5:30 p.m. and
provided a description of the
man, police spokesman Mike
Murphy said.
“We got out there, and he had
had his car blown out,” he said of
the wounded man at the crash
site near the police station.
Police contacted the suspect at
the apartment building in the
5800 block of South 152nd Place
and tried for about an hour to get
him to surrender, Murphy said.
The man was yelling incoherent­
ly, Murphy said, but refused to
surrender and fired at least once
at police with a shotgun.
Two officers returned fire, and
the man died, Murphy said. No
others were shot. The man’s age
is unknown, but he’s believed to

‘Ineffective’ City Light may have misbilled big developments, audit finds
100 LARGE PROJECTS FROM
CITY’S BUILDING BOOM
Utility will address record
keeping, documentation
By JESSICA LEE
Seattle Times staff reporter
Some Seattle City Light custom­
ers who received new electrical
hookups may have been overbilled
or underbilled upward of hundreds
of thousands of dollars each, ac­
cording to an audit released by the
city Auditor’s Office.
The audit, which looked at
100 projects, found some of the
utility’s procedures for managing
billing and revenue are “ineffective
or lacking,” leading to the potential
discrepancies, according to the
audit released Wednesday. The
money issues largely affect devel­
opers.
One customer alone was poten­
tially overbilled up to $117,000,
the report says. Another may have
been underbilled as high as
$136,000. The report does not
identify the projects or customers.
Because of the city’s building
boom, projects with new electric­
service connections are in high
demand. That’s one reason for the
review, which looked at projects
between July 1, 2011, and Dec. 31,
2014, the report says.
“Construction activities are in­
herently risky, due to the complexi­
ty of new and related service proj­
ects,” City Auditor David Jones said
in an email of the audit’s rationale.
“Therefore, such projects may be
prone to fraud, waste and abuse.”
No specific instances of fraud
were found in the recent review,
though procedures could create
opportunities for it, the report says.
The audit includes 18 recom­
mendations on record­keeping and
documenting practices, among
others, and urges the utility to
follow up on the big­dollar poten­
tial discrepancies.
Seattle City Light generally
agreed with the recommendations,
saying it will make appropriate
steps to correct the internal issues,
the report says. The findings come
amid “sizable challenges of greatly
increased billing activity” due to
the city’s growth and limitations on
staff size, it adds.

“In defending this case, we
are simply following the state

the province of the Washing­

The family’s case is arguing

Attorney General’s Office said
the plaintiffs’ argument is
based, in part, on misunder­

to court documents. The state
intervened under a law that
provides the right when the
constitutionality of such
language “affecting the public
interest is drawn into ques­
tion,” the documents say.
In 1909, the Legislature
actually expanded the state’s
existing wrongful­death law
to include the language in
question, though not on the
basis of race, those docu­
ments say.
“Rather, it is a reasonable
economic distinction related
to the purpose of the stat­
utes,” they say. Before the
1909 language, the law did
not allow any parent of an
adult child to bring a wrong­

the documents.

law, in a sense, discriminates
against Americans when they

he said.
Shannon, with the Wash­

Justice, was part of numerous
efforts at the Capitol to get the
law changed. The efforts
focused on both require­
ments: residency and depen­
dency.
“It’s something in law that
nobody knows about until
something like this (the
Ducks crash) happens, and
then you think, ‘My God, how
have we allowed that to be
the law?’ ” he said.
Shannon said Washington’s
wrongful­death law is fairly
unusual. Its multiple prongs,
when combined, set it apart
from other states.
“There are probably two or
three other states that are
similarity situated,” he said.
Fierce opposition, includ­
ing from lobbyists on behalf of
insurance companies, for
example, has successfully
blocked the pushes for change
at the Capitol, Shannon said.
“Question marks” on the
financial impact remain the
biggest hurdle, he said.

Three injured in

Police are investigating a

The investigation began

Officers arrived to find
three men with apparent
gunshot wounds. The men
— whose names have not

Center, one with life­threat­

Witnesses later told inves­

GREG GILBERT / THE SEATTLE TIMES
Professor Megan Bang speaks to the Native Education Cer­
tificate Program students at the University of Washington.
< Stuteville
FROM B1
They’ve joined the program’s
first cohort — 69 in total —
to learn how to better teach
Native issues in their
schools, as well as better
work with Native youth and
families in their communi­
ties.
“Just think about what has
changed in 250 years on this
site,” Bang adds, before the
group moves on, occasional­
ly parting to allow a student
to bustle past, face buried in
a phone.
This is what Bang, and the
Native Education Certificate
Program, call “land­based”
or “place­based” learning,
and it’s one of the pedagogi­
cal approaches these educa­
tors will learn over the
course of the next two years.
One of the first field trips
of the program will be to a
series of locations Spokane
Tribal elders have identified
as important places for a
child of the Spokane Tribe to
know. Program participants
will then “backward map”
issues related to their class­
room learning goals. For
example, a traditional har­
vest location can lend itself
to learning about science,
the environment and histo­
ry.
“Thinking about place and
land is central to education,”
says Bang, who believes this
approach can be applied to
every subject. “We didn’t
always only learn in build­
ings. And that’s not only true
in Native communities.”
In addition to discovering
new approaches to teaching,
program participants will
also address cultural insensi­
tivity, racism and bias in
existing curricula — issues
Bang says her own two chil­
dren have experienced in
school all too often.
“I think learning about the
Oregon Trail is very impor­
tant, but it’s almost always
learned from the perspective
of settlers,” she says, ex­
plaining how her own
daughter, who is Native,
struggled to identify as a
pioneer when studying the
Oregon Trail in school. “ It
(the curriculum) didn’t ask
what were the long­term
consequences for Native kids

complex, police said.
Cheryl Garcia, who man­
ages a neighboring apart­
ment complex, said two
helicopters patrolled as po­
lice, some with K­9s, and
firefighters first responded to
the area. SWAT officers
joined them. Negotiators
used a blow horn to talk to
the suspect, she said.
“And then I heard gunfire
like crazy,” Garcia said. Chil­
dren were playing at a near­
by courtyard, so she and
others scrambled to usher
them to another area, she
said.
“All the little ones play out
here. They just feel safe,”
Garcia said. “It was a sur­
prise.”
The wounded man in the
car was taken to Harborview
Medical Center in Seattle
and was in serious but stable
and Native people.”
Experiences like that can
make relationships between
educators and Native stu­
dents and families challeng­
ing. In response, the pro­
gram hopes to help educa­
tors learn more about the
cultural and historical con­
text of the communities they
work in.
“I think building trust with
the community is Number
One,” says Mark Jacobson,
principal and superinten­
dent for the Quileute Tribal
School in La Push, Clallam
County.
Jacobson, a non­Native,
says he joined the Native
Education Certificate Pro­
gram because he wants to be
able to better communicate
and work with Native fami­
lies.
“If you look at the relation­
ship between Natives, the
state of Washington and the
federal government, we’ve
created so much mistrust,”
says Jacobson, referencing
historical policies of forced
cultural assimilation
through government­run
schools. “Some of our grand­
parents were in boarding
schools. It’s going to take
some time to build those
relationships.”
Bang says the program
was a result of decades of
requests to the UW from
tribal leaders who were
concerned about academic
achievement gaps, inade­
quate education and a lack
of Native teachers in their
communities. But she is
quick to add that these ap­
proaches are good for every­
one.
“We happen to think that a
lot of the pedagogy we teach
is good for all kids,” says
Bang, citing the universal
importance of education that
is culturally relevant, histori­
cally sensitive and respectful
of students and families.
“The principles are just good
teaching.”
After just a couple hours of
land­based learning, I know
I’ll never look at the UW
campus the same way again.

Numerous police depart­
ments responded to the fatal
shooting. Regional investiga­
tors who specialize in re­
viewing officer­involved
shootings remained in the
area late Thursday.
Investigators will consider
all circumstances, such as if
the man was under the influ­
ence of drugs or alcohol or in
a mental crisis, in their over­
view, Murphy said.
The officers who fired their
weapons will be placed on

Prudy as she is known by
family and friends passed away
peacefully Saturday evening,
August 6, 2016. After 93 wonderful
years of life and her final days
at Mirabella Seattle with family
and friends, she left us all
with extraordinary memories
of her ageless beauty, quiet
determination and commitment
to family. She decided it was her
time to go.
Born July 12, 1923 to Arch and
Betty Talbot in Seattle, Prudy
attended Roosevelt High School,
Scripps College in California and
the University of Washington.
She married James Doster (Doc)
Rolfe after a 3-year courtship
interrupted by Pearl Harbor
and WW II on June 29, 1944. The
wedding was held in a private
ceremony at Jamestown, RI near
Docky’s Navy base. During the
war, Prudy lived in Seattle while
Docky served on a destroyer in
the Pacific, exchanging letters
with a secret code to show Doc’s
location – a code which Prudy
never deciphered. After the
war Prudy and Docky raised
a family of five children while
Doc practiced law in Seattle.
For most of their married life,
Prudy and Doc lived in their
family home in the Highlands, a
residential community located in
north Seattle.
After her children were grown
and off to college, Prudy returned
to school and studied organic
chemistry and botany. She became
very interested in natural remedies
and naturopathic medicine, or
what was characterized in those
days as “alternative medicine.”
She was one of the founding
contributors of Bastyr University
and received their Mission Award
recognizing her extraordinary
contributions to the university
and to natural medicine in 2003.
She served as a member of the
Board of Directors and an active
supporter of Bastyr for many
years. In addition to her work
for Bastyr, she also served as a
member of the Board of Trustees
of Scripps College. Prudy was
a member of the Seattle Tennis
Club, the Junior League and the
Sunset Club of Seattle.
Prudy and Docky spent many
years cruising the waters of the
Pacific Northwest with their
children and fellow mariner
families. These adventures took
them all over the US San Juans, the
Canadian Gulf Islands, Desolation
Sound, around Vancouver Island
and up the inland passage to SE
Alaska. Together they explored
many areas first charted by
Docky’s guide and mentor,
Captain Vancouver in the HMS
Discovery, a name he proudly
reused on one of their own boats.
Prudy is survived by her husband
of 72 years, James Doster Rolfe;
her children, James Doster
Rolfe, Jr. (Tad), Laurie E. Rolfe,
Stuart T. Rolfe and Greig C.
Rolfe; her 9 grandchildren and 10
great grandchildren. She follows
her brother James Greig Talbot
and her son, David Hamilton
Rolfe, who predeceased her.
Prudy was a woman ahead of her
time, a woman of remarkable
beauty and grace and one who
will leave a lasting memory for
all who were fortunate enough to
have known her.
There will be a private reception
in celebration of Prudy’s life at
the Sunset Club on Thursday,
August 25 from 3:00-6:00pm.
Remembrances in Prudy’s name
are welcomed and may be sent to
Bastyr University.

Previous answer / easy
1. Each row and each column
must contain the numbers 1
through 4 (easy) or 1 through
6 (challenging) without
repeating.
2. The numbers within the heavily
outlined boxes, called cages,
must total the target number
in the top left of the cage, using
the math operation given. For
example 2- means the numbers
in the cage total 2 through
subtraction (3 and 1 or 4 and 2,
in any order).
3. Freebies: In single-box cages,
fill in the number in the top-left
corner of that cage. A good
way to start is to fill in these
boxes first.

BIDDING QUIZ

South West North East
1♣
Pass 1 ♠
Pass
2♣
Pass 2 ♦
Pass
?
What would you now
bid with each of the following three hands?
1. ♠ 84 ♥ J7 ♦ A52
♣ AQJ943
2. ♠ Q10 ♥ AQ10 ♦ K7
♣ KJ9652
3. ♠ 106 ♥ KJ5 ♦ 94
♣ AKJ763
***
1. Three clubs. Each
new suit bid by the
responder is forcing for
one round. Since you are
therefore obligated to bid
over two diamonds, the
only question is what to
bid.
Three clubs is the most
descriptive rebid. By bidding one, two and three
clubs, you make it clear
that your opening bid is in
the minimum range, that
you are unenthusiastic
about either of partner’s
suits, and that you cannot
bid notrump. If partner
chooses to go on in the
face of your signoff bids,
he does so on his own
responsibility.
2. Three notrump. An
important principle of bidding is that if you have
underbid at one point,
you should try to correct it later by making a
strength-showing bid. In
the same way, if you make
an early overbid, you
should bid weakly from
then on to try to correct
the previous impression.
In this case, the rebid
of two clubs slightly
understated your actual
values. Consequently,
when partner says two
diamonds, you want to
avoid making any bid that
would sound as though
you were responding only
because partner is forcing you to bid. Both two
notrump and three clubs
in this sequence would
sound weak. The jump
to three notrump compensates for the previous
underbid.
3. Two notrump.
Partner may be angling
for game in notrump, and
the reason for his failure
to bid it himself might be
that he lacks a heart stopper. In any case, regardless of what partner’s
purpose is in forcing you
to bid again, there is no
real choice but to say two
notrump.
As indicated previously,
this is not a strong bid.
It merely shows that you
can’t support partner’s
suits and that you have a
heart holding that makes
a notrump contract feasible.

< Audit
FROM B1
For the projects cited,
spokesman Scott Thomson
said, the utility is reviewing
the steps of each transaction
to figure out if any customers
owe or should receive mon­
ey. The follow­up is further
complicated because the
developers may no longer be
in the area.
“It’s different for someone
who builds their own house
and is still living in it,” Thom­
son said. “To the best of our
ability, we will seek out pay­
ment” for instances of veri­
fied underbilling and issue a
refund for overbilling.
Depending on how the
utility decides to go forward,
the timeline is unclear for
making changes based on
the recommendations. They
include better following
protocol and changing duties
among staff, for instance.
Some changes will take more
time than others to imple­
ment, Thomson said.
The billing procedure for
large­scale projects is as
follows: Seattle City Light
gives initial cost estimates
and then bills for any excess
costs after the project, the
report says. And if actual
costs are less than estimated,
a refund for the difference is
due to the customer.
The larger and the more
costly the project, such as
installing transformers in
vaults, the more complex the
billing. Some projects can
exceed $1 million, the report
says.
Auditors interviewed staff
and studied billing docu­
mentation, such as customer
agreements, to compile the
findings. They broke the
report into five categories:
completeness and accuracy
of billing, timeliness of bill­
ing and revenue collection,
cash handling, monitoring
and oversight of refunds, and
policies and procedures.
City Light reported that it
began making improvements
in 2014, though the audit
found issues from projects
that were completed that
year, the report says. No
down, hold hands and plow into
your challenges together.
I can’t tell you whether to stay
together or break up, but if you
want to continue this relationship,
you should insist on professional
relationship counseling. Find
someone with experience dealing
with same­sex couples.

details on the nature of those
changes were available.
Revenue from such service
connections totaled just over
2 percent of the depart­
ment’s total revenues,
though in 2014 alone that
meant $20.2 million, the
report says.
Also, as another reason for
the review, the Auditor’s
Office cites a 2012 audit of
Seattle Public Utilities, in
which it discovered a $1
million cash fraud.
An upcoming new billing
system for customers of
Seattle City Light and Seattle
Public Utilities is unrelated
to the audit’s findings. That
system is related to pulling
data on energy consumption,
for instance, and customer
information, Thomson said.

patients often face long wait­

which, Lakovics said, can
allow their condition to
worsen until they reach a
crisis situation and need a
costly hospital stay.
“What oftentimes happens
is the hospital serves as the
final resource,” he said.
Pincus said the undersup­
ply of psychiatrists could be
due to a number of factors.
For one, psychiatry is one of
the lower­paying physician
specialties. According to the
American Association of
Medical Colleges, the start­
ing salary for a general psy­
chiatrist is $185,300. Neurol­
ogists started at $250,000
and neurosurgeons topped
the list at $475,000.
That’s in part because the
health­care system tends to
reward doctors for doing
procedures, like surgeries,
rather than spending time
talking to a patient.

Simone Biles became the fourth straight American woman to capture the all­around title in the Olympics and fifth overall.
Good as gold
WOMEN’S GYMNASTICS

RIO DE JANEIRO — Simone Biles and
Aly Raisman stood side by side in Rio
Olympic Arena, clutching each other
while waiting for the inevitable corona­
tion.
When the floor­exercise judges validat­
ed what Raisman and every other gym­
nast has known for years — that Biles is
the greatest of her generation and perhaps
of all time — the U.S. Olympic team cap­
tain let her good friend go.
Suddenly Biles was alone in the spot­
light, the normally giggly teenager fight­
ing back tears as she waved to the family
that raised her, the coaches that molded
her and the sport she is redefining.
The secret is out. The pressure is gone.
Biles belongs to the world now.
And history too.
Dynamic on vault. Effortless on beam.
Jaw­dropping on floor. Brilliant as ever.
And now, finally, an Olympic champion.

John corrected: “I’m

• Ravens 34, 49ers 31
(Super Bowl XLVII); and
• Ravens 16, 49ers 6
(in — drumroll, please

game).

RENTON — In their last
extensive practice before
their exhibition opener Sat­
urday at Kansas City, the
Seahawks had a new­look
first­team offensive line —
likely foreshadowing what
fans will see against the
Chiefs.
J’Marcus Webb, who suf­
fered a knee injury of which
the details were not made
clear Wednesday, did not
practice, which had veteran
free­agent signee Bradley
Sowell working at left tackle
with Garry Gilliam back at
right tackle.
Gilliam has been the left
tackle for most of camp, with
Webb on the right side. The
rest of the No. 1 line was the
same — center Justin Britt,
left guard Mark Glowinski
and right guard Germain
Ifedi.
That it’s Gilliam that was
moved is interesting consid­
ering that coach Pete Carroll
had volunteered on Sunday
that Sowell was making a
run at the first­team left­
tackle job. Gilliam started
last season at right tackle
before the team decided in
the offseason to move him to
the left side as the team
seeks to replace the departed
Russell Okung.
Offensive­line coach Tom
Cable said he did not know
what was wrong with Webb,
who was wearing a brace on
his knee, saying “we’ll proba­
bly know more this after­
noon and then we’ll see
going forward.’’
As for putting Sowell at
left tackle — where he start­
ed with Arizona in 2013
before serving in a reserve
role the past two years — and
moving Gilliam, Cable noted
that Webb is the only tackle
who does not play both spots
and portrayed as a chance to
get a look at a different of­
fensive­line alignment.
“It’s really more just to see
different combinations,’’ he
said. “Maybe we miss some­
times that this guy is better
on the left side than the right
and vice versa. So this is the
time to do that, obviously.’’
Cable also said, though,
that Sowell has played well
and is right in the thick of the
competition for playing time.
Gilliam said he wasn’t
surprised to be moved back
to right tackle, saying “I’m
used to bouncing from the
right to left as a tight end and
moving to right tackle last
year after being left tackle
the year before.

the sort of performance he needed
if he’s going to beat out Trevor
Siemian. The former Jets quarter­
back completed 10 of 13 passes in
the first quarter and led a game­
opening 76­yard touchdown drive.
He had a pass intercepted by
Jerrell Freeman on the Broncos’
second possession.

after a rocky college career and a brief stint with the Jets.

first two weeks of training
camp, a time during which
his steady play has earned
raves from coaches and play­
ers.
“He’s been the most accu­
rate quarterback in camp so
far,’’ said receiver Doug Bald­
win, who also often did indi­
vidual work with Heaps
during the offseason.
“There’s not that many guys
that come in with his work
ethic. It’s very nice to see
because he’s humble, he’s
going to work his tail off and
he’s done an excellent job of
progressing, learning the
playbook. But then you see
him out here on the field and
he’s dropping dimes all the
time.’’
Offensive coordinator
Darrell Bevell went as far as
to say on Wednesday that
Heaps is “pushing’’ rookie
Trevone Boykin for the back­
up spot behind Russell Wil­
son.
“Both these guys are mak­
ing some big splash plays out
here,’’ Bevell said. “So it is
going to be fun to watch
them play and see how much
they are going to be able to
retain and react to.’’
That’ll be the real key —
how they perform under the
pressure of a game — for
each to give the Seahawks
faith that they can actually
hold down the backup quar­
terback job.
The Seahawks have said
they will keep all options
open when it comes to the
backup quarterback spot,
including scouring the waiv­
K
er wires for a veteran when
cuts are made in a few
weeks.
But for now, the battle
remains between Boykin —
an undrafted rookie free
agent from TCU — and
Heaps.
For Heaps, simply being in
camp is something of a victo­
ry in itself.
After a mercurial college
career that ended in 2014 at
the University of Miami in a
season in which he threw just
12 passes, Heaps received a
training­camp shot last year
with the New York Jets. But
he got on the field for just
one series, throwing just one
incomplete pass, before
being released.
He later played two games
with the Brooklyn Bolts of
the Fall Experimental Foot­
ball League but eventually
returned home and worked
as a quarterback tutor while
continuing to explore any
and all playing options, in­
cluding the Canadian Foot­
ball League.
Along the way he had a
few workouts with the Sea­
hawks. A turning point came
when Heaps threw passes at
the University of Washing­
ton’s Pro Day in March with
Seahawks coaches in atten­
dance. With contract talks
lagging with Tarvaris Jack­
son, the backup the last three
seasons, the team signed
Heaps in May to add depth
behind Wilson and Boykin.
And if some might view
Heaps as the proverbial camp
arm who can be trusted to
know the playbook and un­
derstand what the team

Seahawks serves as a mea­
sure of redemption for a
college career that was al­
ways going to have a hard
time living up to the hype
that surrounded his high­
school career and never went
according to plan at BYU,
then Kansas, then Miami.
“I think through all of
those things there might be

said. “It’s had its ups and

become the player I am to­
day. I’ve been through a lot
of different styles, I’ve seen a
lot of different things, and it’s
helped me a lot with my
game moving forward.
“So having this opportuni­
ty, I feel like this is the right
place and the right situation
for me, and now it’s just a
matter of going out there and
capitalizing on the opportu­
nity.’’

One that she does better than
anyone else.
Biles became the fourth straight
American woman to capture the
all­around and fifth overall. She
and Raisman joined Nastia Liukin
and Shawn Johnson in 2008 as the
only U.S. gymnasts to win gold
and silver in the same Olympic
final.
“I told her before today, I want
you to win and I want second,”
Raisman said.
Something that seemed far from
certain last fall. A three­time
Olympic medalist in London,
Raisman appeared to be on the
outside of the picture looking in
after a shaky performance at the
world championships that left her
“devastated.”
Yet there she was 10 months
later, standing on the podium with
her fifth Olympic medal around
her neck, the 22­year­old called
“grandma” by her teammates
having the last laugh and getting a
measure of revenge after losing
bronze in the 2012 all­around
final to Mustafina on a tiebreaker.
“I knew going into tonight I was
going to get the silver medal be­
cause I was going to hit four
events,” Raisman said.
That’s because gold has been
out of reach for everyone but Biles
for three years and counting. She
arrived in Brazil with 14 world
championship medals — 10 of
them gold — with routines aston­
ishing in their mix of ambition and
precision. One last test awaited in
Rio.
Anything less than heading back
to her family’s home in Spring,
Texas, with a fistful of golds would
be seen as a disappointment. Biles
earned the first one on Tuesday
while serving as the exclamation
point to retiring national­team
coordinator Martha Karolyi’s
going­away party.
While Biles insisted she’s never
looked ahead during her long run
at the top, that’s not exactly true.
A portion of her floor exercise
routine — the one that includes
her signature tumbling pass — is
set to Brazilian music that would
fit right at home in the street right
outside Olympic Park. It’s not a
coincidence.
The girl adopted along with her
younger sister by their grandpar­
ents as toddlers and discovered by
coach Aimee Boorman’s mother
during a field trip to the gym is a
wonder, even if it always didn’t
seem that way.
Biles’ talent is unmistakable, but
it took time to harness. At one
point Boorman pulled Biles aside
and gave her a choice. Biles could
continue to work out 20 hours a
week, attend high school and
eventually become a college gym­
nast or she could explore the elite
level, a move that included more
intensive training and being home
schooled.
Boorman asked more than once.
And every time the answer came
back the same: Let’s go for it.
“I wanted to see how far I could
go in this sport,” she said.
A decision that led to years of
sacrifices and ultimately, the big­
gest night of her life.
Though Mustafina led through
two rotations, it was a mirage.
Balance beam and floor exercise —
where Biles is the defending world
champion — lay in wait. She went
back in front with a 15.433 on
beam — and capped it with a
15.933 on floor that Karolyi called
“very close to perfection.”
Only the judges don’t hand out
perfect scores anymore. Maybe
one day Biles will make them
reconsider. She’ll have her chance
next week when she can add three
more golds during the event fi­
nals.
Five trips to the top of the podi­
um in one Games is something
gymnastics has never seen.
Then again, doing things gym­
nastics has never seen is what
Biles does best.

PHELPS AND
MANUEL

HISTORY
S W I M MIN G |
The Associated Press
RIO DE JANEIRO — Mi­
chael Phelps waggled four
fingers, recognizing another
historic achievement.
Now, he’s the first swim­
mer ever to win the same
event at four straight Olym­
pics.
Ryan Lochte was left in
his wake every time.
In what was billed as the
final showdown between
two of America’s greatest
swimmers, Phelps blew
away Lochte — and every­
one else — to win his fourth
gold medal of the Rio Olym­
pics and 22nd overall with a
victory in the 200­meter
individual medley Thursday
night.
Phelps finished a full
body­length ahead of the
field after dominating the
breaststroke and freestyle
legs, finishing in 1 minute,

behind Phelps at the last
three Olympics in this
event.
This time, he didn’t even
make the podium.
Leading at the midway
point, Lochte faded to fifth
— nearly three seconds
behind the winner.
It was quite a night for the
powerful American team,
which picked up two more
golds. Ryan Murphy com­
pleted a sweep of the men’s
backstroke events in the
200, but the most socially
significant triumph was
Simone Manuel tying 16­
year­old Canadian Penny
Oleksiak for the top spot in
the 100 freestyle.
With the shared win,
Manuel became the first
African­American woman to
capture gold in swimming.
Her fingernails painted
red, white and blue, Manuel
broke down in tears after
her landmark victory in a
sport that still struggles to
attract people of color.

win Wednesday — his first
at­bat in more than a week.
Manager Joe Girardi fulfilled
an earlier promise to put him
in the lineup Thursday and
said he wasn’t going to pinch­
hit for Rodriguez in the eighth.
“I really thought he might hit
a ball in the seats tonight,”
Girardi said. “But it ends up
being a big run. It really does.”
Rodriguez was pleased to

a teenager with Seattle when
he got an infield single at Fen­

His hometown Miami Mar­

MINNEAPOLIS — Major­league
batting leader Jose Altuve had
four hits, drove in three runs and
scored three times, sending
Houston past Minnesota in the
first game of a split doubleheader.
MINNEAPOLIS — Evan Gattis
homered and had four RBI, Carlos
Correa went deep for the third
straight game and Houston beat
Minnesota to sweep a double­
header. Houston had 16 hits in the
nightcap, three fewer than it had
in a 15­7 win during the day. The
doubleheader was necessitated by
a rainout Wednesday, a game
Minnesota led 5­0 in the third.

BOSTON — Alex Rodriguez drove
in a run with a bases­loaded
dribbler, capping a three­run rally
in the eighth inning that lifted
New York over the Red Sox and
sent the booed designated hitter
out of Boston with one last
victory. Rodriguez is set to play his
final game for the Yankees on
Friday night at home against
Tampa Bay. The 41­year­old
designated hitter will then be
released and become an adviser
and instructor for the club.
ARLINGTON, Texas — Pinch­hitter
Carlos Gonzalez had a bases­clear­
ing double in a five­run, eighth­in­
ning rally, and Colorado held on
to end AL West­leading Texas’
winning streak at five games.
NEW YORK — Last­place Arizona
rattled New York’s Noah Synder­
gaard with four more stolen
bases, then broke it open in a
six­run sixth inning that included
Chris Owings’ bases­loaded triple.

CLEVELAND — Mike Napoli was
4 for 4 with a homer and four RBI,
Lonnie Chisenhall drove in four,
and AL Central­leading Cleveland
routed Los Angeles.
OAKLAND, Calif. — Mark Trumbo
hit a grand slam for his major­
league­leading 32nd homer and
drove in five runs to help Balti­
more beat Oakland. The Orioles
had been shut out for 17 straight
innings and lost their lead in the
AL East following three consecu­
tive one­run losses in the series
before Trumbo sparked them.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Danny Duffy
pitched his first complete game to
win his eighth straight decision
and Cheslor Cuthbert had two hits
and drove in a run in Kansas City’s
victory over Chicago. Duffy (9­1)
limited the White Sox to seven
singles, struck out six and walked
none. He has not lost since June 6
and has a 1.73 ERA in his past five
starts. Cuthbert tripled home
Jarrod Dyson in the sixth. Dyson
was initially called out trying to
steal second, but the Royals
appealed and the call was over­
turned. Cuthbert then scored the
go­ahead run on Eric Hosmer’s
single off Carson Fulmer (0­2).

Beaver, Walker look to make
impact on UW’s secondary
U W F O O T B A L L | Safeties are
coming off serious knee injuries
and are trying to find playing
time in a deep secondary.
By PERCY ALLEN
Seattle Times staff reporter
There’s a unique kinship between
Brandon Beaver and Trevor Walker
– a pair of veteran Washington
Huskies safeties making their return
from knee injuries.
They’re among the few holdovers
from the previous coaching regime
who made their collegiate debuts in
2013. They slowly found success in
UW’s new defense before injuries
derailed their careers.
During their absence, the once­
thin secondary developed into the
deepest position on the top­ranked
defense in the Pac­12 last season.
That’s good news for the Huskies,
but Beaver and Walker won’t have
an easy time finding playing time in
a crowded defensive backfield.
“We’re going to see this unbeliev­
ably competitive training camp
where we have the deepest safety
unit I’ve ever coached,” said Jimmy
Lake, UW’s co­defensive coordina­
tor and secondary coach.
Junior Budda Baker, an All­Amer­
ica candidate, and sophomore JoJo
McIntosh are slated to start at the
two safety spots with junior Ezekiel
Turner, freshman Taylor Rapp and
Beaver and Walker competing for
backup duties.
“I feel like we got a lot of players
that could start pretty much any­
where,” said Walker, a 5­foot­11,
180­pound junior. “We’ll display it
this season.”
Walker redshirted in 2015 after
tearing his ACL in October 2014
against Arizona State. Before the
injury, he started three games and
played in all eight contests.
“I was pretty depressed honestly
just because during my sophomore
year I was working towards reach­
ing a certain spot on the team,”
Walker said. “I moved up in the
mind,” Beaver said. “When I’m in
school or working out, I was always
thinking about him so I can set a
good example. I got my degree (in
American Ethnic Studies), so I can
show him that when I get older.
“I can just tell him that even when
I got hurt, I still fought back and I’m

choose one comeback as your fa­
vorite this season, which would it
be?
“The other night when Robbie
(Cano) hit the home run off (Fer­
nando) Abad. It was another late­
inning comeback, and it was a
packed house,” Mariners catcher
Mike Zunino said. “It’s always great
when there’s a bunch of fans and
you can do it for them.”
That Cano blast two Wednesdays
ago capped a five­run eighth inning
in Seattle’s 5­4 win over Boston.
And though the Mariners (60­53)
lost the following night, they
haven’t dropped a game since.
What they have done, however,
is dazzle the crowd on an almost
nightly basis. They have taken the
“Gladiator” approach to just about
every victory this homestand, em­
phasizing entertainment over dom­
inance. And in doing so, Seattle is
somehow 1½ games out of the
wild­card race despite standing pat
at the trade deadline and sending
starting pitcher Taijuan Walker to
the minors. How in God’s name
have they managed to pull this off?
How have they been able to use
comeback after comeback to make
this massive comeback?
“My favorite was (Tuesday)
night,” said Cano, referring to the
6­5, 15­inning win over Detroit.
“We tied the game in the eighth
inning, and they scored again in the
15th. We had chances to win the
game earlier, and they (the Tigers)
came back and scored. To be able to
come back tells me how much these
guys want to win and how much we
fight.”
That was reliever Vidal Nuno’s
favorite, too, because it showcased
the depth of the bullpen in extra
innings. Hero­by­committee, after
all, has been the theme throughout
this winning streak.
It doesn’t matter if you’re a sev­
en­time All­Star or a what’s­his­
name from Tri­Cities. If you’re on
the Mariners’ roster, chances are
the spotlight has snagged you at
least once.
“I think the popular answer is the
one where we came back against
San Diego, but if I was going to
throw one more out there, I
thought the other night when

homer,” pitcher James Paxton said.
LENNY IGNELZI / THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Robinson Cano, left, and Leonys Martin celebrate Seattle’s epic 10­run comeback against San Diego on
June 2. The rally was the biggest but not the only dramatic comeback for the Mariners this season.
“That was probably my favorite
aside from the one where we came
back from 10 runs down.”
O’Malley, a Richland native,
played in 11 big­league games in
2014, 24 last year and 57 this year.
Yet his seventh­inning shot in an
8­6 win over the Angels on Satur­
day has the potential for legendary
status if the Mariners make a play­
off run.
Unfortunately, if they don’t make
the postseason, all of these feats
would fall into the Jermaine Kearse
Pile of Forgotten Heroics. Until
then, though, they have combined
to skyrocket the Mariners’ confi­
dence heading into the final 49
games of the season.
Yes, the Hollywood moments
have been abundant this year. I
haven’t even mentioned Adam
Lind’s pinch­hit, three­run, walkoff
homer to beat the White Sox last
month, which happened to be Nick
Vincent’s favorite.
And perhaps the most endearing
thing of all is how quick the Mari­
ners are to spread the credit
around. Cano picked a comeback in
which Zunino won the game via a
sacrifice fly. Zunino picked a come­
back in which Cano had the big
swing. Leonys Martin picked the
San Diego game despite not having
an at­bat.
Pretty cool.

DEMPSEY:
LODEIRO IS
DIFFERENCE
FOR SEATTLE
SOUNDERS
Dempsey also praises
Morris, who’s ‘becoming
a complete player’
By MATT PENTZ
Seattle Times staff reporter
The Sounders are now unbeat­
en in two matches under interim
head coach Brian Schmetzer.
Clint Dempsey scored as many
goals in last Sunday’s win at
Orlando City as he’d managed in
the entire league season entering
last weekend.
And with a two­game home­
stand against Western Confer­
ence rivals Salt Lake and Port­
land followed by a trip to last­
place Houston on tap, rumblings
of a potential late­season turn­
around have begun to stir.
Asked Thursday what — or
who — has been the biggest im­
petus behind Seattle’s rejuvenat­
ed attack, Dempsey pointed not
to the coaching change but to the
club’s newest Designated Player
signing, Uruguayan playmaker
Nicolas Lodeiro.
“His quality in the attacking
third, being able to pick out run­
ners, his vision just opens up the
game for us,” Dempsey said of
Lodeiro, who has dished out two
assists in as many MLS starts. “…
People have to mark him, so it
leaves someone else open. That’s
been a difference­maker for us.
“We have players who are
picking their head up in the final
third and picking out people in
the box. We’re able to convert
those opportunities. … We
haven’t scored enough goals.
We’ve been able to get better
looks the last couple of games.”
Dempsey also spoke with effu­
sive praise for rookie forward
Jordan Morris, who assisted on
two of the veteran’s three goals at
Orlando and who Dempsey
jogged toward to celebrate both
strikes.
“He’s becoming a complete
player, not only somebody that
can score goals, but can get as­
sists,” Dempsey said. “You look at
the last game, he could have had
five assists. He’s coming along
great, and the future is just look­
ing brighter and brighter for him.
“You have to give respect to the
people that put you in a position
to score. I felt like a lot of the
goals I’ve scored this year have
come from good balls in. You
want to show love to the people
that are creating chances for
you.”
On the club’s decision to part
ways with longtime coach Sigi
Schmid late last month, Dempsey
was diplomatic.
“It’s one of those things,”
Dempsey said. “It’s a business,
and people have to make difficult
decisions. You try to figure out
ways to get things turned around
for teams. Sometimes, it’s not the
fault of a certain person. It’s just
that sometimes change sparks
things. We’re trying to make a
push for the end of the season,
and right now things are looking
better.”
Dempsey is on pace to average
fewer goals and assists per game
than in any season since the one
in which he arrived midway
through from Tottenham
Hotspur. He’s notched six goals
and just one assist in league play
this season, having appeared in
15 of Seattle’s 22 games.
But his rhythm was again dis­
rupted by a midseason interna­
tional tournament — this time
Copa America Centenario — and
Schmetzer said he senses a player
finally getting his bearings as the
season enters its final stretch.
“The whole season has seemed
to have been a bit of a challenge,”
Schmetzer said. “He doesn’t have
the best start, then he goes away,
then he comes back, now he’s got
three goals. Nico is incorporated
into the team, Flaco (Fernandez)
is here, Jordy’s budding and
blossoming a little bit as a for­
ward. I think it’s just a growing
process, a learning curve for all of
them. So it is a little bit difficult.
“But you heard him. His inter­
view was great. He’s for the team.
He’ll do whatever it takes. We’ve
got the team headed in the right
direction.”

UPPER ARLINGTON, Ohio
— Vijay Singh rebounded
from a bad shot on the 17th
to birdie the final hole Thurs­
day and take a two­stroke
lead after the first round of
the U.S. Senior Open.

improve this team to give it
the depth it needs and bring
it to a higher level,” Roy said
in a statement. “To achieve
this, the vision of the coach
and VP­hockey operations
needs to be perfectly aligned
with that of the organization.
He must also have a say in
the decisions that impact the
team’s performance. These
conditions are not currently
met.”
Roy has split control with
executive vice president and
general manager Joe Sakic, a
former teammate.
Colorado went 130­92­24
under Roy, who won the
Jack Adams Award as coach
of the year in 2013­14.

“inclusive, diverse and suc­
cessful” environment.
Sterk replaces Mack
Rhoades, whose tenure last­
ed just 15 months. It was
marked by campus upheaval
that resulted in the removal
of the university system
president and chancellor.
Sterk is a 1980 graduate of
Western Washington and
former athletic director at
Washington State.
Wimbledon player
poisoned?
New athletic director Jim
Sterk did not shy away from
addressing the social issues
that have beset the Missouri
campus the past 12 months,
saying he wants to foster an
be the longest in the tourna­
ment’s 90­year history. The
playoff holes were 10 and 18,
and the two golfers each
missed four birdie putts of
under 23 feet on the first four
playoff holes, then birdied
par­4 No. 10 the third time
they played it, and finally
had the tournament end
dramatically when they
played No. 18 for the third
time in the playoff.
Bayley already had made
headlines this summer when
he beat the top Northwest
club pros and won the Ro­
sauer’s tournament in the
Spokane Valley with a per­
formance that included an
eye­popping 59 at Meadow­
Wood Golf Course. He also
won the Idaho Amateur this
summer.
Bayley appeared to be
cruising to victory when he
was 7 under on the tee of the
par­5 16th hole, but a way­
ward drive put him under a
tree in the left rough and he
had to punch out. He wound
up bogeying the hole.
“That hole definitely hurt,”
Bayley said.
Carlson, playing two
groups behind in the final
group, closed the gap with an
eagle on No. 16 that featured
sinking a treacherous 25­foot
putt. It was a three­stroke
swing on the hole.
Bayley finished par­par,
and his 68 was the low score
Thursday.

Walsh Construction Company, located at
315 - 5th Avenue South, Suite 600, Seattle,
WA 98104 is seeking coverage under the
Washington State Department of Ecology’s Construction Stormwater NPDES
and State Waste Discharge General Permit. The proposed Wesley Homes Senior
Living Des Moines Campus Redevelopment project is located at 815 South 216th
Street in Des Moines, King County, Washington. The project involves 19-acres of
soil disturbance for the construction of a
multi-building senior living campus along
with demolition of existing buildings, grading activities, pavement for interior roads
and parking, landscaping, water and sanitary sewer extensions, stormwater system
and franchise utility improvements. The
project will be constructed in phases over
several years. Stormwater will be routed
into temporary erosion and sedimentation
control traps or Baker tanks or through
completed modular wetland systems for
detention and water quality treatment prior to discharging either at the northwest
corner of the site or at a mid-west location
on the site to discharge, at each location,
into the existing storm drainage system.
Both drainage courses flow to the west to
discharge into Des Moines Creek. Any
persons desiring to present their views to
the department of Ecology regarding this
application may do so in writing within
thirty days of the last date of publication
of this notice. Comments shall be submitted to the department of Ecology. Any
person interested in the department’s
action on this application may notify the
department of their interest within thirty
days of the last date of publication of this
notice. Ecology reviews public comments
and considers whether discharges from
this project would cause a measurable
change in receiving water quality, and, if
so, whether the project is necessary and in
the overriding public interest according to
Tier II antidegradation requirements under WAC 173-201A-320. Comments can be
submitted to the Department of Ecology,
Attn: Water Quality Program, Construction Stormwater, P. O. Box 47696, Olympia,

Eco push for Hyundai, Kia
Hyundai and its affiliate Kia will push
sales of environment-friendly vehicles
as part of efforts to meet increasingly
stringent global emission standards and
fuel-economy requirements, the automakers recently told executives. Hyundai
plans to debut its Ioniq gasoline-electric
hybrid next year, and Kia plans to sell
the Niro hybrid. The automakers plan to
have 28 environment-friendly vehicles in
their lineups by the end of the decade,
including electric cars and hybrids.

Mind wandering
Plans for self-driving cars have pitfall: The human brain
By Joan Lowy / The Associated Press
E
xperts say the development of selfdriving cars over the coming decade
depends on an unreliable assumption
by many automakers: that the humans
in them will be ready to step in and take
control if the car’s systems fail.
Instead, experience with automation in
other modes of transportation like aviation and rail suggests that the strategy will
lead to more deaths.
Decades of research shows that people
have a difficult time keeping their minds
on boring tasks like monitoring systems
that rarely fail and hardly ever require
them to take action. The human brain
continually seeks stimulation. If the mind
isn’t engaged, it will wander until it finds
something more interesting to think
about. The more reliable the system, the
more likely it is that attention will wane.
Automakers are in the process of adding increasingly automated systems that
effectively drive cars in some or most
circumstances, but still require the driver
as a backup in case the vehicle encounters
a situation unanticipated by its engineers.

Dear Car Talk: Is there a place on the
internet where I can look up what a repair
should cost? I need an alternative to calling
you. — Bill
A: Ah, so you’re the one who’s been calling at 3 a.m., asking for a price on a brake
job for a 2003 Ford Focus.
There are a couple of sites on the
internet that can give you an idea of what
a repair should cost, but they do have
limitations. First of all, you have to know
what repair you need. That’s easy if it’s a
60,000-mile service, or if you’ve already
been to a shop and gotten a diagnosis. In
that case, you fill in your year, make and
model, and get the price range.
We tried that in our area for a brake job
on a 2003 Ford Focus. Since labor rates
fluctuate around the country between
ridiculous and exorbitant, estimates vary
by location. Repair Pal (repairpal.com)
gave us a range of $340–$493 for new
front pads and rotors.
Open Bay (openbay.com) asked for a
little more useful information, like the
trim level of our Focus, and whether we
wanted only original Ford parts, or were
open to aftermarket parts (we said yes).

A sobering experience: Testing drunk-driving goggles
By Charles Fleming
Los Angeles Times (TNS)
A
utomobile accidents are the
No. 1 cause of death among
American teenagers.
Drunk and drugged driving are a
big part of that. More than a third
of all U.S. automotive fatalities
involve alcohol, says the National
Highway Transportation Safety
Administration.
In Texas, North Dakota and
Massachusetts, 41 percent of 2014
automobile fatalities were alcoholrelated, the highest percentage
among the states, NHTSA says.
In Washington, the figure was 29
percent. As cars have gotten safer
because of things like air bags and
automated braking, the percentage of all auto fatalities caused by
or involving alcohol has gone up
— from a national average of 34.2
percent in 2003 to 38.6 percent a
decade later.
Ford, through its Ford Motor Co.
Fund, is trying to do something
about that. For the past 12 years,
its Ford Driving Skills for Life
program has been educating teenage drivers about the dangers of
impaired driving.
The program now includes
drunk-driving goggles and a

drugged-driving suit — both of
which are designed to simulate the
physical symptoms of impaired
driving in a person who is sober.
On a cloudy weekday morning,
on a rudimentary driving course
set up on the roof of the Petersen
Automotive Museum parking
structure in Los Angeles, I got a
chance to do some drunk driving
while sober.
First, I drove a few laps around
the simple course, taking care to
stay between the cones.
Then I was asked to put on the
“drunk goggles” and drive the same
course.
The goggles gave an immediate
sensation of inebriation. Everything was out of focus. I was dizzy
and off-balance. Just sitting behind
the wheel, I felt nauseated.
Then I started driving. And I didn’t
do very well. I clipped several cones
and ran over several others, even
while driving with one eye closed —
an old drunk-driving trick.
No matter how hard I tried, I
couldn’t make the car go where I
wanted. On the second lap, I ran
over more cones than I had on the
first. Even at careful, parking lot
speed, I couldn’t function properly.
The driving course was designed
to resemble the parking lot of a
bar or nightclub, and the drive to
resemble an inebriated person’s
difficulties in getting on the road
without incident.
In real life, I would have clipped a
couple of cars. Or maybe run down
a pedestrian.
Then, as if I had been pulled over
by the authorities for driving under
the influence, I put on the “drugged
driving” suit and tried my hand at
a field sobriety test.
The suit consisted of bindings
around my elbows and knees, plus
weights on my ankles and wrists.
A pair of drugged-driving goggles
added some flashing lights and
eliminated most of my peripheral
vision.
And the field sobriety test was
hard. Any officer of the law would
have immediately confirmed that
I was not capable of driving safely,
and clapped me in irons for a ride
to the pokey.
The life lesson, according to Mike
Speck, a former professional race
car driver who now works with the
Driving Skills for Life program,
is to impress upon a sober teen
how hard it is to drive impaired
— which they might not realize if
they were trying to drive while they
were snockered.
After the training, Speck says,
“They realize, if they were drunk or
high, they might not even be aware
of being impaired.”
To date, the Driving Skills for Life
program, which is not affiliated
with school drivers’ training programs, has reached 800,000 drivers
in 35 countries, including 41,000
U.S. teens.
This year’s program will visit
15 American cities in more than
a dozen states. A Portland, Ore.,
event (date still to be determined)
will be the closest for Seattle drivers. The half-day program is free
and teenage drivers with licenses
or learner’s permits are encouraged to attend with their parents or
guardians.

Tesla’s Autopilot, for example, can
steer itself within a lane and speed up
or slow down based on surrounding
traffic or on the driver’s set speed.
It can change lanes with a flip of its
signal, automatically apply brakes, or
scan for parking spaces and parallel
park on command.
Tesla warns drivers to keep their
hands on the wheel even though
Autopilot is driving, or the vehicle
will automatically slow to a stop.
A self-driving system Audi plans
to introduce in its 2018 A7, which
the company says will be the most
advanced on the market, monitors
drivers’ head and eye movements,
and automatically slows the car if the
driver’s attention is diverted.
“Drivers in these quasi- and partial
modes of automation are a disaster in
the making,” says Missy Cummings,
director of Duke University’s Humans
and Autonomy Laboratory. “If you
have to rely on the human to see
something and take action in anything less than several seconds, you
are going to have an accident.”
Part of the problem is overconfidence in the technology causes people
to think they can check out. Not long
after Tesla introduced its Autopilot
system, people were posting videos
of the car with the self-driving mode
engaged cruising down tree-lined
roads or even highways with no one in
the driver’s seat.
“There is a tendency of people to
take one ride in one of these vehicles
and then conclude that because they
have not crashed over the course of
10 minutes that the system must be
ready,” says Bryant Walker Smith, a
University of South Carolina professor who studies the technology.
Some experts think the ability of
people to monitor autonomous systems

Kaushik Raghu of Audi demonstrates

may be getting worse. With the advent
of smartphones, people are accustomed
to having their desire for mental stimulation satisfied immediately.
“Go into Starbucks, for example,”
says Cummings. “No one can just
patiently wait in line, they’re all doing
something on their phones. It’s kind
of pathetic.”
Some automakers may be rethinking their approach. Two years ago,
General Motors announced it would
start selling a Cadillac in the fall of
2016 that would almost drive itself on
freeways. But in January the company
confirmed that the project has been
delayed for an unspecified reason.
In briefings, company executives
said they were waiting to perfect
methods of assuring that the driver
pays attention to the road even when
the system is on.
The system, called “Super Cruise,”
will use cameras and radar to keep the
car in the center of a lane and also stay
a safe distance behind cars in front of
it. The system will bring the car to a
complete stop without driver action
if traffic halts, and it can keep the
car going in stop-and-go traffic. But
it’s designed for use only on limitedaccess divided highways.
Google, meanwhile, is aiming for a
car that’s fully self-driving and may
not even have a steering wheel or
brake pedals.

came back at $284–$347.
But here’s why it can be tricky. Let’s say
you’re hearing a noise from your brakes
but you don’t know what it is. How do
you get an accurate estimate online? You
don’t.
In cases when you don’t know what’s
wrong, a repair estimator is no help at
all. But if you do know what’s wrong,
and what service or repair you need, you
certainly can use these services to get a
“reality check” and see if the quote you’ve
been given is within reason. And both
of these sites will refer you to someone
on their list of local shops, who will then
pay the site a referral fee. That’s how they
make money.
Another option is to get the names of
several highly reputable shops first. You
can do that by going to mechanicsfiles
.com and entering your ZIP code. You’ll
get a list of shops recommended by other
readers and listeners of ours. Then you can
call a couple of those shops and ask for a
price. You’ll not only get a more-specific
price, but you’ll know that those shops will
be likely to do the work correctly.

Bertha Benz inducted into
Automotive Hall of Fame
Bertha Benz, the first
female automotive pioneer, was inducted into
the Automotive Hall of
Fame last month. As
the visionary business
partner of engineer
husband Karl Benz
(inducted into the Automotive Hall of Fame
in 1984), she played a significant role in the
filing of the first patent for the automobile
in 1886 and demonstrating the roadgoing
capability of her husband’s invention. She
was the first person to take a long-distance
automotive road trip, traveling 60 miles
with her children. The Benz name lives on
in the brand Mercedes-Benz.
Others who were inducted this year include
auto-safety advocate Ralph Nader, Ford
GT40 engineer Roy Lunn, and Alan Mulally,
who took over as Ford CEO after a career
at Boeing.
The Automotive Hall of Fame is in Dearborn, Mich., but will move to Detroit in the
coming years.

Survey: Car hack would cost
automakers customers
In a survey by audit company KPMG, 82 percent of shoppers said they would be wary
or never buy from an automaker if the company had experienced a cyberattack against
their vehicles. And 70 percent are concerned that their own car might be hacked
within the next five years. In the event of a
hack, 41 percent said their No. 1 fear would
be someone else taking control of the car,
followed by 25 percent who were wary of
financial information being stolen. While
consumers are worried, automakers aren’t
jumping into action. The survey found that
68 percent of automotive cyber executives
haven’t invested in information security in
the past year. And 55 percent said there
isn’t someone at their company whose sole
responsibility is information security.

Bras” subcategory of the contest, with
examples on display made from kitchen
utensils, roadkill hedgehogs (yes, really)
and one artist’s beloved, deceased pet
budgerigars — which are now, she notes,
“close to my bosom.” (“That may be slight­
ly impractical,” noted a passer­by.)
Over­the­top, to be sure, but that’s part
of this exhibit’s charm. You leave dazzled
by the seemingly limitless imagination on
display, nodding in agreement with a Dalí
quote on the wall: “The one thing the
world will never have enough of is the
outrageous.”

might actually wear: Rebecca Maxwell’s
canary­yellow “Noor Reverie,” inspired by
the accordion folds of Moroccan lanterns,
is a slightly puffier take on a familiar mini­
dress silhouette, and I can imagine some­
body wearing Lai Kit Ling’s striking optic
wedding­cake “In the Op” to a contempo­
rary and very posh version of Truman
Capote’s Black and White Ball. Others fall
squarely on the “art” side of wearable: Jeff
Thomson and Fenella Fenton’s “Mantilla,”
in which the mannequin seems wrapped
in miles of multicolored, intricate lace;
Sarah Tomas’ playful “American Dream”
merges its wearer with a shiny red road­

lothes can be strictly utilitarian, or
they can be playfully high­fashion, or
... well, that’s where the taxidermy
bra comes in.
“World of WearableArt,” selections from
which are on display at EMP Museum
through Jan. 2, is an annual contest and
awards show based in Wellington, New
Zealand, now in its 28th year. The contest
invites fashion designers, artists and other
artisans to take art off the wall and onto
the human form. Anything goes, says
WoW founder Dame Suzie Moncrieff, in a
quote on the wall at EMP: “The garments
don’t have to be commercially viable. They
don’t have to take themselves seriously.
They just have to be wearable.”
Hence, Lynn Christiansen’s “Gothic
Habit,” a sort of jumper­dress (it’s held on
the body by straps) that’s an elaborate
Gothic cathedral, created from 2,300
pieces of laser­etched and cut felt; it’s like
a beautifully intricate architectural model
that just happens to have a person in the
middle of it. Or David Walker’s “Lady of
the Wood,” a delicate­looking gown in the
style of the 17th century — if that century
was in the habit of crafting dresses entirely
from wood. Or Jan Kerr’s “Hermecea,”
which looks like the result of a beautiful
love story between a dapper lobster and an
arty hula dancer.
The show, making its North American
premiere, has 32 garments in all; among
them are winners from the past 12 annual
contests. With the exception of a disgrun­
tled preteen boy overheard asking his
brother “Why did you think this had to do
with World of Warcraft?” (look at those
WoW posters carefully, kids), visitors to
EMP on a recent afternoon seemed rapt by
the spectacle.
Displayed under spotlights in an other­
wise dark section of the museum’s second
floor, the garments seemed like free­float­
ing, dreamlike creatures from a very odd
fairy tale. In one corner, video highlights
from the contest’s fanciful annual fashion
show/performance (think Cirque du Soleil
with a catwalk) played in a loop; in it, you
could see many of the garments from the
exhibit in seemingly impossible motion.
Some of the works on display seem not
too far removed from something a person

FRIDAY, AUGUST 12, 2016 |
pening a restaurant is never
easy, but the owners of San
Fermo cleared historic hurdles in
renovating The Pioneer Houses to
create an inviting, unpretentious
neighborhood Italian restaurant.
Erected in the 1850s, the twin,
two­story structures are believed to
be Seattle’s oldest, intact residen­
tial properties. Thirty years ago,
they were relocated from the Chi­
natown International District to
Ballard. Two years ago, restaura­
teurs Jeff Ofelt and Wade Weigel
purchased the property and devel­
oped the concept along with restau­
rant consultant Tim Baker and
Scott Shapiro, a co­developer of
Melrose Market.
After more than a year of recon­
struction, San Fermo opened in
May with Baker’s son, Sam West,
heading the kitchen.
The restaurant is named for an
Italian monastery where the 25­
year­old West has stayed and
cooked alongside the monks. In
Seattle, he has worked as a sous
chef at Oddfellows Café and as a
line cook at Staple & Fancy and
Anchovies & Olives, experience
that shows in the simple, seasonal
Italian fare presented here.
Pasta dishes are especially ap­
pealing. There’s a hint of rosemary
in the fennel­sweetened Bolognese
sauce. Made with pork and veal,
the sauce is usually served with
saffron spaghetti — unless they run
out. All the pasta is made in­house,
and the saffron­infused noodles
require a longer lead time than
most.
Bucatini neri, hollow strands
blackened with squid ink, make a
vivid backdrop for “frutti di mare.”
One night’s seafood catch included
sweet Hama Hama clams, tender
calamari and a curled leg of braised

TAN VINH / THE SEATTLE TIMES
By TAN VINH
Seattle Times features writer
G
etting dinner at Dump­
lings of Fury feels more
like a leap of faith, its menu
more of a wish list.
At least that’s what it must
have felt like for the scores of
folks who lined up around
the block at this new dump­
ling house, not knowing if
the soup dumplings — or any
dumplings, really — would
be left by the time they made
it to the front of the line.
Dumplings of Fury has
become one of the new “It”
spots in Seattle since it
opened in mid­July, bringing
a taste of Asian street food to
West Seattle.
The kitchen is the size of a
walk­in closet, so tight the
staff of five can’t take more
than one step without bump­
ing into one another.
The staff is frantically
making dumplings on site
and at Shadowland across
the street (two of the three
dumpling owners also run
that bar) but still can’t keep
up with demand.
Wait until the buzz dies
down if you don’t want to
wait in line.
In the meantime, the own­
ers have set a more realistic
hour of operations, crossing
out 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. and
Dumplings of Fury
Asian street food
4302 S.W. Oregon St. (West
Seattle), Seattle; open
Wednesday­Sunday 4 p.m.
until sold out, 206­257­0695;
dumplingsoffury.com
replacing it with “4 p.m. until
sold out.”
So far, that means soup
dumplings are eighty­sixed
by 6 p.m., the other dump­
lings usually by 8 p.m. Come
after that? Ugh, I hear Sub­
way is pretty fast.
The menu: Five dumpling
variations ($7­$10), either
fried or steamed, with pork
and/or shrimp. The gyoza
(tofu, Field Roast meat sub­
stitute, shiitake mushroom
and water chestnut) is the
lone vegetarian option. Add
barbecue pork and Chinese
broccoli for $2.50 more.
Steamed bao buns come with
either kalbi short ribs ($8 for
two) or fried chicken ($7).
Wontons are also served in a
hot­and­sour soup ($9).
Don’t miss: Those pan­fried
mandu­inspired dumplings
may be the most satisfying
morsels. Three per order,
each is the size of a hockey
puck, overstuffed with pork,
tofu and spicy kimchi, the
fillings perfect for soaking up
the dipping soy sauce.
The steamed wontons may
be your best consolation
prize when dumplings are
sold out. The skin is silky and
slick, covered in a spicy
Szechuan glaze with fried
shallot for crunch to go with
morsels of shrimp and pork.
It’s the kind of spicy, sweet
and salty bite of umami you
would find at Asian street
markets.
The bao (two per order) is
sandwiched with ribbons of
fatty kalbi short ribs with a
kimchi kick.
What’s disappointing: The
soup dumplings, xiao long
bao, are inconsistent, under­
cooked on one visit and leak­
ing on another try. Orders of
soup dumplings come too
fast for the modest kitchen to
keep up with the pace and
maintain quality.
Prices: An order of soup
dumplings ($10), wontons
($9), shrimp­and­chive
dumplings ($8), mandu ($8)
and kalbi bao ($8) totaled
$47.13 including tax,
enough to feed three.

W
hen Los Angeles­based hard rock
band Guns N’ Roses arrived in
Seattle in June 1985 to play its very first
out­of­town show at a Chinatown Inter­
national District dive called Gorilla
Gardens, the group wasn’t much of a
draw. The band’s Seattle­born bassist,
Michael “Duff” McKagan, recalled the
show in his memoir as “sloppy ... though
on the plus side only about a dozen
people were subjected to our set.”
But success wasn’t far away. Two
years after that gig, the band released
“Appetite for Destruction,” which sold
more than 30 million copies and spun
off such trademark songs as the blister­
ing “Welcome to the Jungle” and
“Sweet Child O’ Mine,” an unlikely love
song from rock’s newest bad boys.
Now, the band is bringing its “Not in
This Lifetime” tour back to Seattle on
Friday, Aug. 12, playing a venue across
the street from where Gorilla Gardens
once stood — CenturyLink Field. The
show has been given some Northwest
luster with the addition of Alice in
Chains and McKagan’s daughter
Grace’s band, The Pink Slips, as open­
ing acts.
The concert is expected to draw a

capacity crowd of 40,000. As the tour
name suggests, it’s an unlikely (partial)
reunion gambit for one of rock’s most
tempestuous bands.
In its heyday, Guns N’ Roses had a
reputation for rock ’n’ roll debauchery
— drugs, groupies, vandalism. The
press ate it up. “Kerrang!” magazine
proclaimed the group “the most dan­
gerous band in the world.”
But excessive substance abuse took
its toll. Drummer Steven Adler was
fired in 1990 and guitarist Izzy Stradlin
quit the band the following year,
though by then he was clean and sober.
After 1993, the band stopped perform­
ing live. Sessions for a new album
stalled. In frustration, guitarist Slash
left in 1996, followed by McKagan in
1997.
Lead singer Axl Rose, the sole remain­
ing original member, insisted the group
was still a going concern, despite an
eight­year gap between the 1993 album
“The Spaghetti Incident?” and 2008’s
“Chinese Democracy,” which received a
mixed reception. Members constantly
came and went. Adler sued for lost
royalties. Slash and McKagan sued Rose
over songwriting credits. Slash, McKa­
gan and Rose sued their label for releas­
ing a greatest­hits album.
A Rose­led Guns N’ Roses played
sporadically from 2001 on. Bad feelings
lingered. In 2009, Rose stated he’d
never play with Slash again. When the
band was inducted into the Rock & Roll
Hall of Fame in 2012, neither Rose nor
Stradlin attended the ceremony.
But relations gradually thawed, and
in January 2016 it was announced that
Slash and McKagan were returning to
the fold (neither Stradlin nor Adler is in
the current lineup, which includes four
other musicians). The tour’s been get­
ting good notices; “Rolling Stone”
called it “the triumphant return of one
of the most important bands to cross
rock music history.” Against all odds,
the onetime bad boys are still alive and
kicking.

guitar, banjo, mandolin and the
seductively twangy octave mando­
lin.
At the New England Conservato­
ry of Music, Jarosz focused on man­
dolin but also studied everything
from free jazz to klezmer music
(her vocal teacher, Dominique
Eade, also taught Lake Street Dive’s
Rachael Price at NEC). On this
album, however, Jarosz conscious­
ly avoided showing off harmonic
knowledge or dexterity, which
made working on it something of a
breakthrough.
“People know I can play all these
instruments,” she said. “[This time]
I wanted to focus on the songs,
almost breaking it down to the
most simple tools possible. I think
that was a great exercise for me as a
songwriter.”
It was, indeed.
“Early Morning Light,” the re­
morseful lead track, shimmers with
bare, Appalachian stillness; the Bob
Dylan­ish “Take Another Turn” is a
spine­tingler; the nod to Jackie
Kennedy, “Jacqueline,” floats
haunting falsetto; and the crisply
plucked “Everything to Hide”
makes surrendering to temptation
sound sinful — yet delicious.
“That was the first song that I
finished of the bunch,” said Jarosz
of that cleverly named tune. “When
that song happened, it showed me
the vibe of the new record, that it
was a lot more sparse and darker.”
“Comin’ Undone,” on the other
hand, is a hopeful, soul­music­
tinged collaboration with singer­
songwriter Parker Millsap (another
future Jarosz touring partner, who
played the Tractor in July) featur­
ing Hammond B­3 organ.
“I think it’s special when you can
find your own voice through collab­
oration, when working with other
people makes your voice more
clear,” reflected Jarosz, who clearly
hasn’t forgotten those Friday­night
bluegrass jams.

The sidewalks in the South Lake Union neighborhood teem
with traffic on a normal weekday, thanks to Amazon and
other businesses, but the congestion will probably double
or triple Friday (Aug. 12), when the 12th edition of the
South Lake Union Block Party gets under way.
The music starts at 4 p.m. and features five Seattle bands,
including groove masters Beat Connection and the heaven­
ly harmonies of Lemolo (pictured).
The TGIF shindig takes place on the block east of Denny Park
bounded by Denny Way, Westlake Avenue North, John
Street and Ninth Avenue North. In addition to live music,
there will be food trucks, a beer garden, a “best burger in
SLU” competition and a visual­arts contest involving steam­
rollers that print giant posters. The festival is free to the
public.
Proceeds from food booths and other activities go to the

Streep hits right notes
as a bad opera singer
By MOIRA MACDONALD
Seattle Times movie critic
“F
lorence Foster Jenkins,” wisely, makes us
wait a bit for the money shot — or, rather,
the money note. Stephen Frears’ gentle comedy,
about a real­life legendarily terrible opera singer in
1940s New York, meanders about for a while,
toying with us, before the title character actually
opens her mouth in song. And when she does, it’s
worth the wait.
We know Meryl Streep can sing. She’s done it,
beautifully, in a number of movies (among them:
“Into the Woods,” “A Prairie Home Companion,”
“Ricki and the Flash,” “Postcards from the Edge”).
And we know

like this. The
noises that come
out of Florence’s mouth call to mind a trapped dog,
or some small creature that’s terribly ill. The notes
sneak up on you (and her), like an unpleasant
surprise attack. Sometimes the note seems to get
stuck, as does Florence’s frozen smile. Sometimes,
it’s almost right but slips away, like an aerialist just
missing the trapeze bar and falling, spectacularly,
to a net far below.
It is, as so many Streep movies seem to be these
days, a wonderful performance in a movie that isn’t
quite as good as she is. Not that “Florence Foster
Jenkins” is at all bad — it’s mostly great fun, with
just a bit too much gooeyness near the end — but
you wonder how it might have worked with some­
one less charismatic at its center. The movie isn’t

ometimes, four heads are better
than one. For the screening of
“Pete’s Dragon,” I borrowed three
visiting friends (ages 10­12), took
out a bank loan for popcorn and
candy, and settled in for some pre­
show conversation. Among the
topics: what size wedgie you would
get if you jumped off a cliff onto a
flying dragon (the consensus: big);
whether dragons have fur or scales
(we thought scales, but agreed that
fur would be easier to hold on to in
flight); and how we all felt about
Marvel Comics movies (we like
them, particularly the 10­year­old­
boy contingent among us).
Was this conversation more
interesting than “Pete’s Dragon,”
once it began? I thought so. But the
movie, a live­action remake of the
1977 animated film about an or­
phan boy and his dragon, isn’t
aimed at the likes of me, and my
mini­focus group — Fiona, Joe and
Iris — was rapt. After a sad little

ford) has long told tales of a magic
dragon in the forest. Pete, reluc­
tantly, returns to civilization — but
will Elliott be able to follow him?
For me, a grown­up spoiled by

sweet but slow and a little bland.

takes place during a specific
time in its main character’s
life: 1944, as she prepares
for a concert at Carnegie
Hall, encouraged by her
affectionate not­quite­
husband St. Clair Bayfield
(Hugh Grant), and endured
by her long­suffering pianist
Cosme McMoon (Simon

The real­life connection
between Bayfield (a Brit,

was a fascinating one — he
managed her career for
decades — and Grant, as

T
he Japanese filmmaker Hirokazu
Kore­eda makes beautiful, quiet
movies about families: “Nobody
Knows,” “I Wish,” “Like Father Like
Son.” His latest, “Our Little Sister,”
focuses on a trio of 20­something sib­
lings, living together in their family
home in the seaside town of Kamakura:
responsible Sachi (Haruka Ayase),
rebellious Yoshino (Masami Nagasa­
wa), sunny Chika (Kaho). Soon, a
fourth sister joins them — teenage Suzu
(Suzu Hirose), daughter of their recent­
ly deceased father and his third wife.
Time goes by, a few seasons pass,
cherry blossoms bloom, ripe plums are
harvested. And, slowly, we get to know
these sisters and their story. The older
sisters’ mother, we gradually learn, left
them some time ago. The self­
sacrificing Sachi, then still a teen, raised
the two younger girls. Chika’s sweet,
untroubled nature stems from her hav­
ing few memories of her troubled par­
ents in the home. Suzu, like Sachi, takes
things seriously; she carries burdens
rather than letting others ease her load.
(“Someone is always hurt because I
exist,” she says, of her parentage.)

unexpectedly turns up, later in the film,

a few more questions are answered. Of
Sachi, her mother says merrily, “She
grew up instead of me.”
None of this lands with a thunder­
clap; instead, it’s all as gentle as the
perfumed breezes you can almost see
on the screen, wafting through the
sisters’ garden. “Our Little Sister,” in its
quiet way, shows us a girl falling in love
with her new family (we see the older
sisters, through Suzu’s eyes, as mysteri­
ous, beautiful creatures of kindness); a
welcoming town where things rarely
change; a pleasantly creaking house
that has brought shelter and comfort to
generations; and, most of all, a family,
changed with the years but as constant
as the seasons. It’s a movie that, by its
serene final scene, changes its viewer.

trembling hand holding a
gun).
Filmed in sepia tones to
give it period flavor, infused
with a sense of unrelieved
tension and paranoia, and
climaxing with a furious
gunbattle, “Anthropoid” is a
gripping picture. Its most
interesting aspect is the at­
tention it gives to the moral
quandary enmeshing the
attackers. Heydrich was a
monster deserving of death,
but the fear of reprisals leads
the commandos to wonder if
success will be worth the
price that surely will be paid.
Perhaps the most powerful
moment in the movie is when
a woman plotter, seeking
reassurance, implores Kubiš,
“Just tell me we’re doing the
right thing.” His answer?
Agonized silence.
In the aftermath, an esti­

war went on for three more

eff Bridges’ voice, in David
Mackenzie’s excellent
Western “Hell or High
Water,” sounds choked with
dust. His character, an aging
Texas Ranger named Mar­
cus, seems to have spent a
lifetime in the kind of town
where tumbleweeds just
might roll down Main Street.
Now, as he tries to stare
down the idea of retirement
(“I don’t like to fish enough
to do it every goddamn
day”), a new case demands
his attention: A pair of broth­
ers, Toby (Chris Pine) and
Tanner (Ben Foster) are
robbing branch after branch
of Texas Midlands banks,
determined to undo a re­
verse mortgage that threat­
ens their family home.
In this very contemporary
tale, no character is a true
hero: The brothers are crim­
inals, sometimes violent
ones, but they’re driven by a
noble fury. Marcus is on the
right side of the law, yet
constantly belittles his long­
time partner Alberto (Gil
Birmingham) with a discon­
certingly casual racism. But,
in this bleak West Texas
landscape where everyone
seems to be struggling, you
find yourself rooting, inex­
plicably, for all of them
against a clear villain: the
faceless, predatory bank.
Alberto, who’s part Coman­
che, notes that the land
once stolen from his ances­
tors is now being taken
away again, “except it ain’t
no army doing it.”

A drifter (Corey Allen) seduces a lonely housewife (Kate
Manx) in the 1960 film “Private Property.”
(Corey Allen, Warren Oates)
arrive at the home of a ne­
glected housewife, Ann (Kate
Manx), whose husband has
no time for her.
Allen’s more aggressive
character, Duke, talks his
way into becoming her gar­
dener and pool boy. His
partner, Boots, is a childish
thug who depends so com­
pletely on Duke that you
can’t help wondering what
the basis of their bond is.
Allen, who had a key role
in “Rebel Without a Cause,”
turns Duke into a charismatic
creature who takes over
every scene he’s in. Oates is
also strong in a less demand­
ing role. Manx, who died
young, is a fascinating enig­
ma.
Some scenes hold up bet­
ter than others, and there’s
always a question about the
film’s intentions: Is this voy­
eurism or is it satire taking
off on the Playboy era? Con­
demned by the Catholic
Legion of Decency in 1960,
“Private Property” is less
dated than you might think.

Light and darkness shade nostalgic tale
16
Linda Emond
and Logan
Lerman star in
“Indignation,”
a coming­of­
age story that
sees college life
in Technicolor.
By MOIRA MACDONALD
Seattle Times movie critic
A
coming­of­age tale
wrapped in memory,
James Schamus’ “Indigna­
tion” brings back a time
when $18/week was decent
pay for a part­time job, and
when students dressed up for
class and walked around
campus with their heads
buried in books rather than
electronic devices.
Marcus (Logan Lerman),
the bright son of a New Jer­
sey butcher, is dazzled when
he arrives at Winesburg
College in Ohio in 1951.
Though the times are trou­
bled — the Korean War rages
in the background, and atti­
tudes toward both sexuality
and mental illness, as depict­
ed in the film, were less than
enlightened — everything
looks like a dream. The cam­
pus, in the words of the Phil­
ip Roth novel on which the
COURTESY OF ROADSIDE ATTRACTIONS
film is based, “could have
been the backdrop for one of
those Technicolor college
movie musicals where all the
students go around singing
and dancing instead of study­
ing.” The sun­dappled light is
dusty and lovely; the settings
and costumes a nostalgic mix
of dark wood, autumn and
tweeds.
It’s a visual style that re­
flects the gazing­back poi­
gnancy of the 2008 book:
Roth was himself a Jewish
student from Jersey who
attended a small liberal­arts
college in the early ’50s; you
see, in Marcus and his fate, a
road not taken. The charac­
ter is extremely articulate,
perhaps almost too writerly
so — but that’s part of the
film’s very literary appeal as
we watch Marcus struggle to
understand his fellow stu­
dents, particularly the be­
guiling, troubled Olivia (Sar­
ah Gadon). With impeccable
performances — particularly

MacArthur, 75,000 troops

Baz Luhrmann’s ‘The Get Down’
fuses superheroes, hip­hop
By JON CARAMANICA
The New York Times
I
n the first episode of “The Get
Down,” the new Netflix series
about the genesis of hip­hop in
the South Bronx, there is a scene
in which Shaolin Fantastic
(Shameik Moore), a jack­of­all­
trades cool guy, finds himself on
the wrong side of attention from a
local gang.
He runs through the streets, a
half­dozen or so foes in his wake.
They chase him to the top of an
apartment building, where it
seems that he’s cornered, but no.
Taking a running start, he leaps
across to the roof of the building
next door — filmed from above,
he appears to be flying — clinging
to its crumbling parapet and
pulling himself up to safety.
The move is part childlike
adventure, part superpower. And
it captures the unusual, provoca­
tive energy of this show, which on
the surface is a coming­of­age
tale about a group of teenagers
set amid the rubble of the South
Bronx in 1977, just as hip­hop —
before it had that name — was
beginning to chip away at disco’s
flamboyant dominance.
In actuality, though, “The Get
Down” is more like a secret
superhero story, one with black
and brown teenagers as the he­
roes. Using extravagant camera­
work and technical tricks that
present the protagonists as larger

than life, “The Get Down” takes a
period and place that’s often
approached with dutiful natural­
ism and sobriety about difficult
circumstances and infuses it with
light touches of magical realism
and bursts of palpable other­
worldly joy.
“They actually lived their magi­
cal realism,” Baz Luhrmann, the
show’s co­creator and an execu­
tive producer, said about the
youth of the era. “They had a
magical reality.”
That this conflation of extrava­
gance and grit has come from
Luhrmann is no surprise: He is
best known for carnivalesque,
music­infused films, like “Moulin
Rouge!” and “The Great Gatsby,”
which verge on the hyperreal. For
this Netflix project — the first six
episodes of Season 1 will be avail­
able Friday, Aug. 12 —
Luhrmann, who also directed the
1½­hour premiere episode, went
deep and long, spending a report­
ed $120 million on the produc­
tion, which has suffered numer­
ous delays.
The teenagers of “The Get
Down” are all in different stages
of self­invention — around them
are unforgiving families, the
burning buildings of the South
Bronx, as well as the cultural
claustrophobia of the disco era.
Shaolin Fantastic finds his
compatriot­foil in Ezekiel (Justice
Smith), an ambivalent young
poet who comes to realize he has
a talent for rapping, eventually
taking the name Books. Ezekiel is
friends with the Kipling brothers
— Ra­Ra (Skylan Brooks), Boo
Boo (Tremaine Brown Jr.) and
the graffiti artist Dizzee (Jaden
Smith) — and his love interest is
Mylene (Herizen Guardiola), a
church singer with disco dreams.
That each was, in his or her
own way, something of a super­
hero was a subtext woven into the
show’s creation from the earliest
stages. “Even in the writers’
room, we were talking about,
‘What’s Shaolin’s superpower?
What’s Books’ superpower?’ ”
said Seth Zvi Rosenfeld, an exec­
utive producer and a writer.
Moore said, “Baz, he was very
clear — the picture he created in
my mind was a superhero.”
There is a mini­renaissance of
black superhero stories at the
moment, including the coming
Netflix series “Marvel’s Luke
Cage” and the Black Panther
comic­book revival penned by
Ta­Nehisi Coates. The movie
“Captain America: Civil War”
features three black superheroes,

while “Suicide Squad” fea­
tures two.
“The Get Down” is categor­
ically different from those
projects, but it raises a simi­
larly radical proposition: that
everyday teenagers — the
show also anoints Hispanic
heroes — imbued with obses­
sion and determination can
invent a whole new world
and make the old one bend to
their whims.
That supernatural ap­
proach to teenage creativity
in the face of ruin had its
roots in the role models of the
1970s, drawn from comic
books and kung fu films.
Those cultural touchstones
fed into a sense among young
people “of being something
else, larger than life, some­
one who could best any foe,”
said Nelson George, a long­
time music journalist and
filmmaker who served as
documentary portrait of an
elderly South Korean couple,

Each central character in
“The Get Down” has an origin
story, and a moment when
his or her superpowers are
awakened — for Mylene, it’s
the performance in church
when she subverts her fa­
ther’s authority and turns a
hymn into a sultry disco ex­
plosion, tearing off her choir
robe to reveal a slinky dress
beneath, her Diana Prince­in­
to­Wonder Woman conver­
sion. “Taking off the robe was
symbolic of what’s to come,”
Guardiola said. “Mylene is
someone who felt different,
and wanted to get out.”
For Books, its when Shaolin
Fantastic takes him to “the get
down,” a party in an aban­
doned building where break­
dancers are controlling the
floor, and Grandmaster Flash
is controlling the turntables,
setting up beats for rappers to
make their mark on.
In “The Get Down,” Grand­
master Flash (an adviser to
the show and also a character
played by Mamoudou Athie)
is the Yoda figure, a spiritual­
ist and font of knowledge
who’s training Shaolin Fan­
tastic in the art of deejaying.
As much as “The Get
Down” is a story about the
birth of hip­hop, it is also
about the demise of the disco
era (which had its own set of
superheroes), and of the age
of Blaxploitation film. The
proto­hip­hop era served as a
repudiation of those worlds
— it worked from the street
up.
“We understood how small
and powerless we were,” said
Rosenfeld, who wrote graffiti
in the late 1970s, and was a
friend of Jean­Michel Basqui­
at in his tagging days. “At the
same time, we had this need
to make ourselves big and
strong and tough and safe.”
Almost everyone Rosenfeld
encountered at that time had
created a character for him­
self. “I didn’t even know half
the guys’ real names,” he said.

“National parks are the best idea we
ever had.” They are a great idea, but that
doesn’t mean that the National Park Service
(NPS) has matched the ideals. Perhaps
nowhere is this better illustrated than in
how the NPS has managed the animals that
live in parks, particularly its bears. For de­
cades, tourists visiting parks such as Yellow­
stone and Yosemite could watch “bear
shows,” where food was placed on plat­
forms, and bears — grizzly and black —
would show up to feed.
These feeding frenzies were bound to be
bad for bears, who became addicted to hu­
man food, and for people, those who came
to watch and those who came to the park
and were in the wrong place at the wrong
time. Throughout the 1960s and 1970s the
NPS regularly had to kill problem bears.
People also suffered with numerous attacks
and deaths. Unfortunately for humans and
beasts, the NPS and wildlife biologists could
not agree on what to do.
The disagreement revolved around the
fundamental nature of the Park Service.
How should it manage its lands, with a dual
mandate of preservation and creating places
that people can enjoy? Many books and
articles have attempted to address this issue.

tional Park Service, is Jordan Fisher Smith’s
“Engineering Eden: The True Story of a
Violent Death, A Trial, and the Fight Over
Controlling Nature” (Crown, 370 pp., $28).
Smith is a former park ranger and author
of “Nature Noir.” He takes a twofold ap­
proach. Anchoring his story is the brutal
1972 death of Harry Walker, who camped
illegally in Yellowstone and was killed by a
grizzly, and the trial that followed. (Smith
does not omit gory details in describing
many bear/human encounters.)
Although tragic and illustrative of the
dynamics of the NPS mandate, Walker’s
death and law case are not as interesting as
Smith’s second narrative thread, the battle
within the NPS. It involved legendary biolo­
gists with decades of field time studying the
land and animals they loved and wanted to
protect.
Starker Leopold, son of Aldo Leopold, was
the author of the seminal document on how
the NPS managed wildlife. Beginning in the
1960s, brothers Frank and John Craighead
had pioneered studies of the Yellowstone

They were not aided by the Park Service,
which fares worst in Smith’s narrative. One
Yellowstone superintendent objected to the
Craigheads’ work because he thought it
would harm visitors’ experiences of nature if
they saw the bears’ brightly colored tracking
collars. At the same time, the NPS continued
to allow the feeding of bears, despite the
objection of NPS biologists. One of the
book’s many strong points is how Smith
illustrates the conflict between the politics
of upper­level management and NPS biolo­
gists, who come across as dedicated, smart
and resourceful.
In particular, David Graber deserves sub­
stantial credit for solving the bear/human
problem when he invented the bear­proof
food storage box found in national parks
across the country. Combined with the de­
velopment of backcountry bear canisters,
the storage box, notes Smith, did more to
solve the problem than any study or bear
management change.
For anyone who wants a better under­
standing of the conflicts inherent in the
National Park Service, “Engineering Eden”
is a timely and thoughtful book. For anyone
who simply wants a well­written book,
Smith’s book will draw you in with his pas­
sion, thoughtfulness and first­rate story
telling.

FRIDAY, AUGUST 12, 2016 |
f there’s a difference between
memory and nightmare, it’s
mostly imperceptible in “Terra
Incognita,” a new play by Benjamin
Benne premiering at Annex The­
atre.
Loss, regret and longing take
many forms in Benne’s play, which
is emotionally astute but rudder­
less, drifting between fairly natu­
ralistic conversations and supernat­
ural bouts of existential dread that
drip with metaphorical signifi­
cance.
Nadia (Lillian Afful­Straton), a
recovering alcoholic on the road
back to normalcy, sees metaphors
everywhere she goes, whether it’s a
sinister crow that seems to be stalk­
ing her or the name of her dead
boyfriend branded on her arm.
She’s still consumed by the man,
who died two years before in a
drunken car accident, and forces
seem to be willing her to step back­
ward into her own damaged past.
Trying to guide Nadia to some
sense of renewal is Sheila (Gretch­
en Douma), an empathetic social
worker who encourages her to
breathe out all the “old air” still
stuck in her lungs. The first act is
largely devoted to concurrent
scenes of Nadia’s therapy sessions
with Sheila, and while this is a
limited dramatic construct, the
pair’s gradually built rapport feels
real under Pilar O’Connell’s patient
