Gov. Chris Gregoire addressed a crowd of business, labor and government leaders from across the state Wednesday at Renton Technical College. CHARLES CORTES, Renton Reporter

Gov. Chris Gregoire launched the state’s efforts to build the 737 MAX in Washington, proposing to spend millions of dollars to educate and train the future workers of the aerospace industry in the state.

The $9.8 million investment in the aerospace training will go before the state Legislature; several local lawmakers, including state Rep. Marcie Maxwell of Renton, stood behind Gregoire as she spoke.

The reason for Gregoire’s appearance at a worker-training classroom at Renton Technical College was the release of an Aerospace Competitiveness Study that formed the basis for the state’s efforts to keep the 737 MAX production in Washington.

Eight other states are vying for the right to build the new 737; Boeing will make its decision in the next few months.

“There is no question that Washington state is the best place in the world to build the Boeing 737 MAX jetliner,” Gregoire said. She called the 737 MAX a gamechanging aircraft in this state.

“But I never take anything for granted – especially in a global market where business and can go anywhere at a speed unknown even a decade ago.”

Gregoire’s proposal places heavy emphasis on enhancing the state’s education system, starting with the earliest grades.

At the college level, she’s proposing to use $7.6 million to add 775 more engineering students at the University of Washington and Washington State University.

At the high school level, she wants to [ more GREGOIRE page 7 ]

Budget cuts, space needs doom RTC sewing

Renton Technical College students, from left, Christine Tamayo, Shiquita Roberts-Williams, Eunice Bias (seated), Joanne Primavera, Laverne McIntyre, Barb Muir and Sonia Wooten-Gill look on as Cyndy Lentsch instructs the last class of the program Nov. 9 at the college. CHARLES CORTES, Renton Reporter shrunk to beginning, intermediate and advanced sewing.

Now with just two classes remaining, the sewing program at RTC had its last class, perhaps forever, on Nov. 9.

Due to budget cuts and not being able to find another location for the class on campus, the col-

lege decided to halt the program.

“We are expanding our basic studies and aerospace assembly mechanic programs and we need the additional space,” said Susanna Williams, college relations and foundation director for RTC in a statement. “Due to four years of budget cuts from the state, Renton

Technical College no longer has the room to sustain smaller programs like sewing, which have served the community for years.”

For Lentsch, this development, which she learned of three weeks ago means retirement from the school, but she hopes to find work [ more SEWING page 7 ]

Cyndy Lentsch has been teaching in the Home and Family Life Program at Renton Technical College for 41 years. Back when she started it was then called Renton Vocational School and there were just two buildings on campus.

“Actually I was hired to be a lingerie teacher way back then; I did that for quite a number of years,” said Lentsch.

She went on to teach basic, intermediate and advanced fashion design at the college. Lentsch even remembers teaching a class on how to make disco clothes. There used to be three teachers in the program and three classes a day.

Ed Prince has been elected to the Renton City Council, beating Robin Jones in a close race that wasn’t decided for sure until several days after the Nov. 8 general election.

The count released Wednesday (the last before the Ed Prince Renton Reporter’s print edition) showed Prince with 7,957 votes, or 51.97 percent, to 7,294 or 47.64 percent for Jones, a difference of 663 votes.

Bigfoot banner stolen from history museum

BY TRACEY COMPTON tcompton@rentonreporter.com

A brazen thief stole the only piece of physical advertising for the “Bigfoot is Probably Real” exhibit at the Renton History Museum Tuesday.

A man entered the museum briefly behind a woman and her child around 11:45 a.m. and apparently went outside and stole the 10-foot by 4-foot banner from the building. It had been hanging there since the end of October, right before the exhibit opened.

“It was in the back of my mind every time we put one

up that someone would steal it, but I thought it would be in the middle of the night,” said Sarah Samson, museum collections manager.

The man took the banner in broad daylight and the theft was witnessed by another woman standing outside.

The suspect is described as a white male, with a slim build, in his 20s to age 30, wearing a black hoodie.

Aside from Facebook and Twitter, banners are the only way the museum advertises its new exhibits.

Ironically, Samson said, the woman and child who came in

before the thief said that they found the museum because they spotted the banner.

It cost the museum about $200 to create a banner and this is the first time one has been stolen.

“And it really stinks because this exhibit is open until the end of January and now our banner’s gone,” Samson said.

She doesn’t think the museum has the money to replace it.

The police were given a description of the suspect and did a sweep of the area with no results.

After she filed the report, Samson said, police did not sound hopeful they would find the thief.

The Bigfoot exhibit has been drawing a really good turnout so far, she said.

“That’s pretty much our advertising budget is those banners,” said Samson. “So that was kind of it for us.”

Since the story first appeared online on rentonreporter.com, the museum has received numerous offers of help to replace the banner, which “really helps take the sting out of the theft,” said Elizabeth Stewart, the museum’s director.

Any with information about the theft is asked to contact the Renton Police Department, 425430-7500.

Small crowd at library open house Committee working on plan for future use of library over the Cedar

BY TRACEY COMPTON

tcompton@rentonreporter.com

COUNTY CONSIDERING CHARGES IN DEATH OF WOMAN WHO WAS SHOT IN 1998 King County Sheriff ’s Detectives were to meet with county prosecutors this week to determine if additional charges will be filed in the death of Lakessha Johnson, 34, who died this week in Kent from a gunshot wound she suffered in 1998.

In November of 1998 Johnson was the passenger in the front seat of a car that was leaving the Skyway Bowl on West Hill. Ronnie Brown was in the back seat of the vehicle. Brown reported at the time that he picked up a bag that contained a gun and it went off, striking Johnson in the back.

Brown was found guilty of charges relating to this incident and served approximately two years in prison, according to the Sheriff ’s Office.

Brown is in prison on unrelated charges.

A surprisingly small group of people turned out to offer input to the Liberty Park Library Building Steering Committee at their open house Tuesday night at the Renton Community Center.

Twenty people attended the event and told committee members what they’d like to see the building used for in the “Even though I future.

For the few that trickled into the meeting room, they added their visions for the space to white posters tacked up on the walls around the room. The boards held ideas such as “conference center, museum space, learning/play center, salmon environmental center and

Renton resident Annie Hetzel loves the building and its location and wants to see something meaningful done with the space. She brought her kids there when they were younger but doesn’t frequent it as much anymore. Hetzel added her thoughts to the poster boards which included creating a nature or environmental interpretive center with exhibits and displays capturing the history of the place, including salmon. “And I’d like to see it have a regional appeal,� she said. “I think

if it was done really nicely there would be people coming in from other places to see it.�

Dan Palmer was still disgruntled over the fact that the library is moving to Third Street, but he thought he would share his ideas for the soon-to-be old library building over the Cedar River. “Even though I prefer to see it stay where it’s at, coming here is what I refer to as my safety net,�

Palmer said. “Because if it moves, the library then - we want the building itself to have its best use to represent the community. So that’s a safety net.�

Palmer saw ideas already posted on the boards for uses that represent a diverse space, which is what he had in mind. “You can listen to a client, you can listen to their wants and needs, but you really have to hear it,� said Gary Barber, chair of the committee. “And that’s what I want to do.�

He heard a lot of echoing of ideas that have already been bounced around in the steering committee in terms of the space’s goals. “It’s really a gem sitting right over the river,â€? Barber said. “So, why not highlight that? A library can only take it so far, but if we had the chance to open it up a little bit more, to expose it a little bit more to the surrounding community‌ get people to go, that’s where I want to go.â€?

Committee vice chair, Marvin Rosete hoped that this first open house would be telling of people’s feelings on the building’s future use. “Like every other committee we’re going to use that as analysis, so that when we go to our committees, we’re going to say here’s what the public has said,� Rosete said. “And then we’ll deliberate on exactly how the public is feeling.�

The committee has planned to do more open houses and get feedback from an online survey at www.rentonwa.gov.

The committee will get a presentation on the city’s museum master plan and the arts and cultural plan next. In December it will get down to business sifting through all of the information and feedback they will have collected and begin arriving at their proposal for the library’s future use.

Renton teen beaten in drug deal The following information was compiled based on City of Renton police reports.

CRIME

ALERT

This week’s…

Police Blotter

BY TRACEY COMPTON tcompton@rentonreporter.com

A drug deal went wrong as four men beat up a Renton teenager on Nov. 2.

The 17-year-old boy was contacted by another boy he knows who wanted to meet up with him so he could buy marijuana and mushrooms from the 17-year-old.

Police found the teen at a trailer in the 300 block of Union Avenue Southeast at about 8:45 p.m. His nose appeared to be broken, his face was bleeding and covered in blood.

The 17-year-old said he walked to the front of the complex to meet his contact and he was jumped by four people armed with a knife, crowbar and a small pistol.

One of the suspects was a white male wearing an Insane Clown Posse Juggalo mask. Two of the other suspects were Hispanic and the fourth was white.

They stole the teen’s marijuana, cell phone and fleece jacket. He was uncooperative with police, did not want to seek medical attention or prosecution of the suspects.

Brawl at Lindbergh A brawl broke out in a Lindbergh High School classroom on Nov. 4.

A 14-year-old student walked into a class that was in session and attempted to assault another 17-year-old student.

The incident happened around 9:30 a.m.

The 14-year-old was apparently provoked

by getting word from his girlfriend that the 17-yearold wanted to “have sex”

with her.

Several other students intervened to stop the 14-year-old’s punches.

The 17-year-old was cited for breach of peace and the case was forwarded to the King County Juvenile Prosecutor’s Office.

Daughter assaulted A mother assaulted her daughter after she revealed her sexuality on Nov. 5.

The 21-year-old daughter told her parents that she is gay and has a girlfriend as they left a business on East Valley Road around 5 p.m.

The 48-year-old mother starting pulling her daughter’s hair once they got into a vehicle and started to drive away.

The mother also began punching her daughter’s head and arms. The father tried to calm the mother and pulled the vehicle over.

When they reached the apartment complex parking lot, the physical assault began again with yelling. The daughter ran into the apartment and locked herself in until police came.

The mother was arrested for fourth-degree domestic violence assault.

Renton couple fights A Renton couple got into a violent altercation on Nov. 2.

Police spoke with the victim a 19-year-old

woman in the 600 block of Southwest Fifth Court around 6 p.m.

She was crying and hysterical with a red and swollen left cheek and eye socket. She and her former boyfriend, the suspect, have a child, but the woman was too distraught to provide a statement to police.

A grandmother at the scene told police she witnessed the man strike the woman in the face while the two were arguing.

After a foot chase, the man was apprehended by police.

He was arrested for investigation of fourthdegree assault, resisting arrest and obstructing law enforcement.

Chang’s is burglarized Chang’s Mongolian Grill was burglarized on Oct. 25.

The alarm at the restaurant, 505 Rainier Ave. N., was tripped at 3:44 a.m.

Police found the front door of the restaurant shattered but intact. Inside the office door window had been shattered as well.

A digital video system revealed two suspects hitting the front door with a large landscaping rock, forcing the door open.

One of the suspects was wearing a camouflaged jacket and the other a black jacket. They can be seen running to the office, breaking the office door window and ransacking the office.

The footage also captures the suspects looking directly at the security camera at different points during the taping.

The only thing that appeared to have been taken were two empty cash bags.

Renton officers to participate in holiday DUI emphasis Law enforcement agencies, including the Renton Police Department, will conduct extra DUI patrols in King County Nov. 24 through Jan. 2.

Public education combined with strict enforcement is a proven method for reducing DUI crashes and fatalities, according to the Washington State Traffic Safety commission.

In 2010, 188 people in Washington died as a result of a crash involving a drinking driver.

Between 2006 and 2010, the fiveyear total was 1,191.

The death toll is why officers from the Algona, Auburn, Bellevue, Black Diamond, Burien, Clyde Hill, Covington, Des Moines, Duvall, Enumclaw, Federal Way, Issaquah, Kent, Kirkland, Maple Valley, Mercer Island, Newcastle, Normandy Park, North Bend, Pacific, Redmond, Renton, Sammamish, Seatac, Seattle, Snoqualmie, and Tukwila Police Departments and the Washington State Patrol will commit extra patrol hours to make the roadways safer for everyone.

he Renton Police Officers Guild felt Prince brought too much baggage to the City Council. The voters disagreed and so do we. Prince continued to extend his hand to the guild membership. We trust the police will grasp it and work with Prince on public-safety issues on the City Council.

It’s hard to divine too much from the timing of the results.

But Prince and Jones were in a dead heat after the first tally Tuesday night. Prince’s lead continued to grow as votes were added that were cast close to the deadline. It’s clear to us that negative campaigning was costing Jones some votes late in the game.

But here we are, letting the politics get in the way of what’s important – the issues. It’s easy to do, even within the space of a couple hundred words.

Jones ran as an establishment outsider, which really resonated with voters and with the Renton Reporter Editorial Board. There’s a lesson there for Prince, to speak his own mind, to protect his independence and to listen to his constituents.

In endorsing Jones, the Editorial Board wrote that Prince was a leader for the future. That future is now. He begins his tenure on the council with a slate wiped clean of innuendo, privacy – and mud.

Top priority for Legislature is keeping 737 MAX in state 20,000 jobs and hundreds of millions of dollars in tax revenues.

Those are two really good reasons why Gov. Chris Gregoire is rallying local and state leaders, educators, unions and businesses to show Boeing why it should build the 737 MAX in Washington. Of course, we think production of this newest member of the 737 family should land in Renton.

Education is the key component of Gregoire’s plan to keep the 737 MAX in the state, backed up by $9.8 million in spending. The Legislature needs to act expeditiously to approve that spending, even in the face of deep budget cuts, to preserve and increase family wage jobs in the state.

It takes more than a crystal ball to help those in need; it takes a community If crystal balls really had the power to show us the future, then there are a few things I would like to know.

For instance, will the homeless finally have shelter? Will food banks have an abundance of food to feed the hungry? Will the arts play a vital role in sustaining us as a culture? Will abuse and neglect be absent neighbors? Will our lakes, rivers and forests thrive? Will every child have the opportunity for a world-class education?

At the Renton Community Foundation, we hope so. Yet, we know those things won’t come easily and won’t happen by themselves. After all, crystal balls might reveal the future (if they were real), but they wouldn’t tell us how to get there. That’s why RCF is here.

To kick-start and expand philanthropy in creating a healthy and vibrant future for the greater Renton area.

This week, the Renton Community Foundation joined more than 700 other community foundations around the country in celebrating National Community Foundation Week.

In 2010, community foundations granted an estimated $4 billion back to their communities to address essential services in the arts, healthcare, education, senior care, human services, the environment and so much more. In Washington Lynn Bohart

COMMENTARY

Question of the week:

ur candidates lost in the general election.

We endorsed Mary Alice Heuschel for hospital commission and Robin Jones in the race for an open seat on the Renton City Council. But what mattered most is that the endorsement of the voters carried the day.

We remain firmly committed to the principles and goals that Heuschel espoused in her race against Dr. Paul Joos, who won handily.

The elected hospital commissioners must work together and with their counterparts, the Valley Medical trustees, to nurture the strategic alliance between Valley and UW Medicine. That needs to be their focus, as well as keeping the hospital district strong financially in a competitive environment.

The City Council race pitting Jones and Ed Prince, the winner, gave Renton residents certainly a lot to think about, other than the issues. Prince’s financial and personal life were laid bare in what rightly was described at times as mud-slinging.

Prince handled each issue with honesty, when given the chance to explain some of the realities and the missteps of his life. Two unions, one representing fire crews and the other numerous city employees, saw through the mud and stuck with their endorsements.

Letters to the editor

Thank you, Renton There are many things I could say, but that could take a lifetime. I want to thank you for showing a little social worker what true caring is!

When I appealed to you for help, you came through like gang busters! Thank you for the generous outpouring of support you gave to the Salvation Army Rotary Food Bank!

state, more than $74 million was distributed to help those in need.

While there are more than 20 community foundations in Washington state, not every community is fortunate enough to have one. Renton is one of the lucky ones.

In 1999, a group of concerned citizens banded together to transform the old Renton Chamber Foundation into the Renton Community Foundation. Beginning with just two funds and $257,000, today RCF manages more than 40 individual charitable funds and $6 million. In 2010 alone, the Renton Community Foundation distributed more than $700,000 to the Puget Sound area, supporting dozens of nonprofit organizations struggling to provide critical services and impacting countless lives. Perhaps we even impacted your life, or someone you know.

The Renton Community Foundation seeks to partner with individuals, businesses and local organizations hoping to enhance services to those in need and inspire our community to be all that it can be. Please join Gov. Gregoire, who proclaimed November 12-18 as Community Foundation Week, and consider how you can support a cause close to your heart.

For more information on how you can make a difference, please visit www.rentonfoundation. org or call the Foundation at 425-282-5199.

Lynn Bohart is executive director of the Renton Community Foundation.

Everyone from Key Club members, individual volunteers, the Mom’s Club, the City of Renton employees, Renton Kiwanis, Renton Rotary, Harley Davidson, Renton Police Department and individual donors showed a commitment that was steadfast and true.

Thank you to Pirate Pedals, one of my personal favorites, from “The Pirates of the Treasure Island,” who came through big time! Because of all of you, and many more whom I don’t have space to mention, your

donations of food, and funds, will help families less fortunate have a bountiful Holiday Season! Although I am no longer with The Salvation Army, I am as always, a proud resident of the City of Renton, even though I live here vicariously via Brwn Mawr. Keep giving!

Keep loving! Keep caring and I promise to do the same! May God continue to bless each and every one of you!

Sewing skills used for pleasure or on the job [ SEWING from page 1] elsewhere. “It’s just hard to see the program going down, you know,� Lentsch said. “Because there was just - it was just starting to pick up again with new students, young students.�

She teaches about 13 to 14 in each of her two classes. The majority of her students take the class for their own personal enjoyment and continued education. Some take the class and intend to use their skills toward some commercial use. “The makeup most recently has changed in there are a lot younger people who come in again, which is good,� said Lentsch. “I think “Project Runway� had something to do with that.�

She believes the popular TV reality series about designing clothes for the runway has inspired a new generation to seek out fashion design.

But, usually her class is frequented by long-time students indulging their hobbies. “I’ve had a student in class who’s been here since 1974, but that’s kind of unusual,�

Lentsch said.

She’s taught second generations of students and even men. As the economic environment has changed, so has the class on and off.

When women went back to work, Lentsch said, they found sewing to be a reason to explore their creativity as well as an answer to getting clothes to fit.

All of Lentsch’s students were disappointed to hear the program was closing. “I wrote a very positive letter saying please don’t stop the program,� said Barb Muir.

737 MAX to help fill Mideast demand

Muir has been taking Lentsch’s class for 13 years. “I’ve made half my clothes since I’ve been in this class,� she said.

Joanne Primavera came to the college in 1978 as the administrator of the Home and Family Life program, which included sewing at the time. She returned this quarter to take Lentsch’s class and hang out with a friend who also signed up. “There were lots of classes and lots of teachers,� said Primavera. “There were six teachers, I think. So, they were teaching and sewing like mad in those days.�

Christine Corpuz came to the program because she wanted to learn for fun how to do basic things like hem or create a shirt and pants.

She said she was “a little disappointed because I do have a lot of friends who are interested in the program or interested in sewing as a hobby.�

Agnes Titialii was trying to follow in the footsteps of a family member who was a seamstress when she signed up for Lentsch’s class. Growing up all her outfits were made for her. “This was the only school that offered it, you know,� Titialii said. “And I was really excited about it because I looked at the other community college, but nobody offered sewing.�

The school is planning a retirement celebration for Lentsch at 2:30 p.m., Nov. 30 in the RTC cafeteria. “It is difficult to see an end to the sewing program as it has been such an important part of my life,� said Lentsch. “I love to teach. It is my hope that I will continue to teach somewhere in the future.�

Boeing and Dubai-based Emirates Airline Sunday announced an order for 50 extended-range Boeing 777-300s, plus options for an additional 20 of the twinaisle commercial jetliner.

The order, valued at $18 billion, makes it the single largest commercial airplane order in Boeing’s history by dollar value, according to a Boeing Co. press release.

It also makes 2011 the best-selling year for the 777 program, surpassing the previous record of 154 orders set in 2005.

With the Emirates order, the 2011 net order book for the Everett-built 777 currently stands at 182. The options for 20 more airplanes is valued at $8 billion.

Boeing’s announcement came just before its release of a forecast that airlines in the Middle East will need an estimated 2,520 airplanes worth $450 billion by

2030.

Single- and twin-aisle airplanes will account for 90 percent of the Middle East’s new airplane deliveries over the 20-year period, according to the Boeing forecast.

An estimated 1,160 single-aisle jets, such as the Boeing 737 MAX, and 1,110 twin-aisle airplanes, such as the Boeing 777 and 787 Dreamliner, are expected to be delivered to the region during this time, according to Boeing.

The remaining 10 percent is split between large airplanes such as the Boeing 747-8 Intercontinental and will account for 7 percent of projected demand, with an estimated 180 airplanes to be delivered to airlines in the Middle East.

Regional jets will account for the remaining 3 percent.

Gregoire wants to preserve middle class [ GREGOIRE from page 1] add an aerospace program at 12 schools and provide two Skills Centers to train high school students. Several students from Aviation High School based at Boeing Field attended the press conference. She stressed the importance of improving math and science skills at all levels.

The end result is preserving and adding family wage jobs in the state, she said. There are 110,000 aerospace jobs

in Washington and the 80,000 jobs at Boeing.

The state has 650 companies that support Boeing’s plants, the largest such concentration of aerospace suppliers in the world.

This is, she said, an “all hands on deck� moment for the state. “We must go after it,� she said the 737 MAX production. “It is a call for all hands on deck. It is likely the largest manufacturing contract in the world for at least a decade.�

From rock to Caspar Babypants, he’s in tune with kids Caspar in Renton

Carolyn Ossorio

Ty Ossorio, at right, listens to a Caspar Babypants concert in Factoria. CAROLYN OSSORIO don’t want to stop singing.

I was excited to interview Chris because I admire his story. Not many people have the courage to follow their gut away from the rock-star status of the Presidents toward the unknown that would eventually lead to the new voice of Caspar Babypants. “Things weren’t feeling just right,� Chris explained during a recent interview. “I wanted to make quiet, simple, straightfor-

ward and sustainable music.�

I asked Chris if he had any pointers for teaching kids how to value the process of living simply and having fun as opposed to the “wealth dream� of fame and fortune.� “Fame and fortune are completely flimsy and hard to maintain. . . . Everyone has to discover it for themselves. It took me 44 years to figure that out. If you have integrity and an urge to

find the truth without flinching.

But all this is too heavy for kids.

You have to lead by example as I do with my kids. It’s incredibly relaxing to have found my voice and my place in the world. I help parents relax and enjoy the music with their kids.�

Chris’s version of relaxation these days is a family affair. A collaboration that includes his wife, children’s book writer and artist Kate Endle and their kids who

Chris reinterprets nursery rhymes and folk songs that have been passed down through generations. “People come up to me at shows and say ‘Oh you’re making kids music’ and I want to sit them down for an hour and explain how important and deep it is —but I just let it go.� “What about coming to Renton?� I asked. Even though I have never produced a concert before, the idea of all those relaxed parents and happy kids around the holidays seemed like a very good thing. “I love Renton! If you want to organize a show from scratch I would be happy to play it!� Chris said.

Our columnist, Carolyn Ossorio, has taken up the challenge to bring Caspar Babypants to Renton. But she needs the community’s help – and fast. Friends of Renton Libraries has agreed to accept donations to pay the $400 fee to bring Caspar Babypants to a venue, in this case the KCLS branch downtown. A tentative date is 10: 30 a.m. Dec. 13.

Carolyn is soliciting donations and is hoping that a business or businesses can really help out in the effort. Checks should be made out to the Friends of Renton Libraries. Please contact Carolyn by phone, 206-478-0995 or by email, carolyn@pippimamma.com, to donate or for more information.

LIFE IN RENTON

Like my shopping I like to keep my stories local — they’re fresher that way.

So I was bummed when I discovered I had an interview with Chris Ballew — member of the alternative rock group The Presidents of the United States of America who also happens to make extremely popular kids music under the pseudonym Caspar Babypants — but no show in good ole Renton.

Seattle, Factoria, Bellevue, Woodinville, Federal Way, Tacoma, Auburn, Southcenter, Skyway. But no Renton.

Caspar Babypants shows are free at King County Library System branches or local Top Pot Doughnuts (for November and December concert dates see www.babypants.com) or reasonably priced at other venues.

So our family went to see the Caspar Babypants concert at KidsQuest Museum in Factoria.

There wasn’t smoke, smashing guitars or intricate lighting. Just Caspar Babypants chilling on a stool with a three-string acoustic guitar perched on his lap.

He wore a logo-less, sunshine colored t-shirt, black shorts and black Addidas. Ron Hippe, a.k.a Ronald Babyshoes, wore a similar outfit and accompanied in spirit on a low-tech mini piano that could have passed for a toy from the sixties.

However, confusing this as toddler tunes would be like calling a magic flute “just a flute.�

It was magic when the acoustic guitar came to life with punchy, folksy vocals delivered with an easy-going confidence. Simple creative lyrics that my kids and I

Kidney center opens new clinic in Renton Northwest Kidney Centers has opened its new Renton clinic that will give dialysis treatments and train people to do it themselves.

The 21,000-square-foot dialysis center is at 602 Oakesdale Ave. S.W. in Renton’s Oakesdale Center business park.

The $4 million center is licensed to serve up to 168 patients, but large enough to serve up to 246 in the future. A generator on site will provide continuous power so that life-saving dialysis can continue even if regular power is out.

The center employs 34 people.

Staff and patients moved to the new center from Northwest Kidney Centers’ former dialysis clinic at 4242 East Valley Road., just below Valley Medical Center, which was purchased in 1986. The organization now will use that smaller building, renamed Mount Rainier Pavilion, as the dispatching hub for dialysis nurses who give treatments in local hospitals.

Without working kidneys, a person can stay alive only with regular dialysis or a kidney transplant.

Patients in a dialysis center typically receive a four-hour treatment three times a week to replace the function of their kidneys.

The leading causes of kidney disease are diabetes and high blood pressure. Certain ethnic groups are at higher risk, especially African Americans, Asian Pacific Americans, Hispanics and Native Americans. Also at risk are people with a famAfter a slow ily history progression of kidney of chronic disease, Helen Shawver kidney disease, and of Renton started dialysis treatments those who in January.

and get tested. A blood pressure check, urine test and blood test will indicate how well the kidneys are working.

The nonprofit Northwest Kidney Centers provides the majority of dialysis care in King and Clallam counties, educates the public about kidney health, and collaborates with UW Medicine in the Kidney Research Institute. Northwest Kidney Centers’ staff of 550 delivers more than 225,000 treatments per year in 14 dialysis centers and 11 hospitals.

It also maintains one of the country’s largest training and support programs for people who give themselves dialysis at home – a form of treatment that often helps people feel better and more independent, according to the company.

In 2012, Northwest Kidney Centers will celebrate 50 years since its founding as the first out-of-hospital dialysis organization in the world.

Jones said Prince benefitted from the endorsements of six City Council members as last-minute voters turned to the voters pamphlet with those endorsements to make “a quick decision.�

Jones said he’ll remain involved in the community and focus more of time on Army Reserve duties.

Prince and Jones ran for the council position held by King Parker, who is retiring from the City Council.

Prince said Monday night his victory is humbling but he’s “overthe-moon happy.� “It was a hard-fought race,� he said. He’s looking forward to serving his community.

Prince’s slim advantage grew daily as new votes were added to the tally, a trend that assured him victory. “It’s hard to know when the end has arrived with the voting by mail, but I think it’s increasingly unlikely that I can close the gap,�

Marcie Palmer ran unopposed, as did Mayor Denis Law for a second term. “I am very pleased and thankful the Renton voters have elected me to a fourth term on the Renton City Council in such a decisive manner,� Persson said. He’s looking forward to continue serving the community as a council member and as a volunteer.

Taylor, too, was pleased with his support. “I am very pleased that the majority of Renton voters have expressed their support, trust and confidence in my work as a council member and have re-elected

me for a second term,� he said.

In the next four years, he said he plans “to build and strengthen that trust and confidence by continuing to listen and learn about issues that matter most to residents while working with the mayor, council members and the administration on solutions that produce best outcomes for residents, businesses and partners.�

Ezell knows not to tamper with perfection

After a legal battle with his former company, Ezell Stephens, co-founder of Ezell’s Famous Fried Chicken, is starting over with a new business venture in Renton.

Stephens held the soft-opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony for Heaven Sent Fried Chicken Nov. 10 at its location downtown on Third Street.

It is the first original establishment to open under the Heaven Sent name. Stephens’ other locations in Everett and Lake City were previously Ezell’s Famous Fried Chicken locations.

Stephens arrived at a settlement with his former company this year in which he had to change the name of the restaurants he opened in Everett and Lake City, but both he and Ezell’s Famous Fried Chicken could use the same recipe.

Stephens said he’s thrilled with the outcome of the settlement.

“This is the first (restaurant) to come under the name with no change; it’s born as Heaven Sent,” he said. “So that makes it real special.”

Stephens calls Heaven Sent a new beginning, saying that the Ezell’s journey is a done deal.

Today, at age 58, Stephens said he

is finally doing what he was born to do.

“It’s really good to be doing what I’m doing and reaping from my work,” he said. “I never experienced this before since I’ve been in business.”

Stephens founded the Ezell’s chain in 1984 with his then-wife Faye Rudd, her brother, Lewis Rudd, and Stephens’ brother Sam. When asked if the Heaven Sent recipe differs or is an improvement on the Ezell’s recipe, Stephens had this to say: “Well, I’m Ezell, so why would I mess with perfection? Why would I mess with greatness? Why would I tamper with it?”

It is that family recipe, the basis for his original company, that caught the interest of Oprah Winfrey, who proclaimed the chicken one of her favorites. This catapulted Ezell’s to fame in the region.

But, does Heaven Sent Fried Chicken stand up?

“Oh yeah, it’s real good,” said Ronnie Beltran, commenting on how the pieces are big and juicy just like he remembered them.

Beltran has been eating Stephens’ chicken for 20 years, he said.

“The first time I met him was at the U-District when he had one of [ more CHICKEN page 15 ]

Congressmen plan jobs fair at ShoWare

Heaven Sent a special place to work

Congressmen Adam Smith and Dave Reichert will host the Help Identify Real Employment (HIRE) for American Jobs Fair on Tuesday, Nov. 22.

The jobs fair is 10 a.m to 3 p.m. at the ShoWare Center, 625 W. James St., Kent.

Representatives from more than 75 local employers are expected to attend.

Participants are encouraged to bring resumes and prepare to interview onsite.

The fair is free and complimentary parking will be available.

“Adam and I understand that Washingtonians want their elected officials to work together to create an environment for economic growth,” said Reichert.

[ CHICKEN from page 14 ] his restaurants there,” Beltran said. “Ate there almost every day, so I wanted to come by and just say hi to him.”

Many people turned out to wish Stephens well at the ribbon-cutting. Some were audibly eager to try the chicken, rolls and peach cobbler he served up.

The menu for the small, take-and-go restaurant features the famous chicken in spicy and original, bread pudding, sweet potato pie, mash potatoes and gravy and coleslaw as the highlights.

Stephens has about 17 people on staff now, but says he knows not everyone is heaven sent. So, he ex-

pects that some of his staff aren’t in it for the long haul.

“You get more than a job when you work at Heaven Sent,” Stephens said. “It’s about changing lives, becoming a better person. Not just about making chicken and selling chicken.”

Stephens says he’s a very positive person; he thinks

that life is simple, but people complicate it by not being fair or honest.

“They want things out of life without putting in time for it,” Stephens said. “And if you’re around me, I can tell you my everyday life is to teach by example.”

He doesn’t try and tell his employees first how to

change their lives, he shows them, he said.

Stephens counts each one of his employees as special people and said that his business is heaven sent.

His former business partners are free to go their own way and he his way, he said.

“I’m free to fly, just like the birds,” Stephens said.

Children as Beneficiaries of a Qualified Plan Parents of minor children may be tempted to name the children as beneficiary of a qualified plan like an I.R.A. or a 401k plan.

But until the children attain age 18, the account will be held in a guardianship making it difficult to provide for their needs. It is best to designate as beneficiary a trust for the benefit of the children as established in the parents’ Will.

NEW RENTON LOCATION

For children of legal age, the children can be designated as beneficiary so they can “roll-over” to a “stretch I.R.A.” and be able to recognize the income tax over their life expectancy.

SAME NOT-FOR-PROFIT PHILOSOPHY

Check the designated beneficiaries on your qualified plans to be certain that your intentions will be fulfilled.

Liberty freshman Mackenna Briggs won a state title in the 100 back Nov. 12 as the Liberty and Hazen swimmers took on the rest of the competition around Washington at the 3A state swim and dive meet.

“I was just really excited,” Briggs said. “It was surprising, but I made my goal which is just really exciting.”

Briggs, who earlier this year became the first freshman Liberty swimmer to ever qualify for state in every event, won the 100 back with a time of 58.62 in the finals. She swam a time of 59.42 in the preliminary round, the only 3A swimmer to finish under one minute.

Heading into the finals, Briggs said she was nervous about Bainbridge sophomore Shayla Archer, who qualified for the finals with the second-fastest time.

As a team, Lindbergh placed 24th with 26 points. Miller scored 2A SWIM & 262.35 points in the finals, while Zinsli swam a time of 25.95 seconds.

which was great,” Briggs said. She also took third in the 200 IM. 3A SWIM & Briggs entered the meet seeded second to Hazen sophomore Talisa Wibmer, who just missed a spot in the A final with her prelim time of one minute, 2.09 seconds. Wibmer went on to swim a top overall time of 58.51 seconds in the B final, but it was good for ninth place.

“That’s a hard one to swallow, but there’s a certain satisfaction in proving what she can really do,” said Hazen coach Rick Wertman. “I didn’t want her feeling anything but that. Go out and prove who you are as a swimmer. You can’t change what happened yesterday, but you can do your best. I think she proved her mettle.”

As a team, the Patriots finished seventh, with 114 points. Hazen came in eighth at 103 points.

The Highlanders lost 47-0 in the 3A state tournament, ending their season.

Hazen (7-3) couldn’t get its offense moving and trailed 27-0 at the half. Capital tacked on 13 points in the third quarter and seven in the fourth.

Lindbergh Lakewood got a helping hand from the weather in beating the Lindbergh football team 43-13 Nov. 11.

The loss knocked Lindbergh (6-4) out of the 2A state playoffs. The game was played at Lakewood Stadium in Arlington, which features a grass field. Heavy rain made for muddy, slippery conditions - a factor that played against the Eagles’ speed advantage.

Lakewood struck first with a 26-yard touchdown run from Donovan Evans.

Lindbergh answered with a 13-yard touchdown pass from Matt Stuart to Cam Callen.

Then Lakewood scored 21 straight points to lead 27-6 at the half.

Quincy Butler added a late touchdown for Lindbergh on a 39-yard fumble return.

...obituaries Kenneth (Ken) Leland Wright Kenneth (Ken) Leland Wright, 66, passed away unexpectedly at home in Kent, Washington Wednesday morning, November 9, 2011, from a heart attack.

A devoted family man, loyal friend and committed follower of Christ, Ken touched the lives of many and is remembered as a man who put others first.

Ken was born in Miles City, Montana, but with his father, Sam, in the Air Force, the family lived in many places around the world. When Ken graduated from high school in Del Rio,Texas, he moved back to Montana to attend Montana State University in Bozeman, MT. Upon graduation from MSU in 1967, Ken followed his father into the United States Air Force and was assigned to Shaw Air Force Base in Sumter, South Carolina. Ken’s service career spanned nearly 25 years as both an active-duty officer and reservist; he retired as a Lieutenant Colonel.

In 1969, Ken married Ellen Traub of Broadus, Montana.

Ken and Ellen had a son, Jeffry (Sumter, SC), and a daughter, Stephanie (Landstuhl, Germany).

After retiring from active duty in 1979, Ken moved the family to Seattle, Washington where he began a 25-year career at The Boeing Company. Ken worked in Business Management on a variety of military projects and contracts.

Upon his retirement in August of 2004, Ken pursued a number of his passions full time. He and Ellen spent considerable time with their grandchildren; they traveled to places like Italy, Greece, China, Hawaii and the Bahamas; and were very active parishioners at St. Anthony’s Church in Renton, Washington. Ken was also the Treasurer of the Rhododendron Species Foundation; was a volunteer tax aide with AARP; and attended countless Mariners games with friends and family.

Ken is survived by many, but most indelibly by his wife of 42 years, Ellen, their son Jeffry, and daughter Stephanie (Jeffrey) Richards; two grandchildren, Ethan and Riley Wright and their mother Heather Wright.

Sarah McCormick placed fifth in the one-meter dive competition. DiMicco took 19th and Liberty’s Christina Sargent finished 22nd.

Wertman said the format of having the swim and dive events concurrent hurt McCormick and DiMicco, both of whom swam and dove at state.

“They were running back

and forth,” He said McCormick performed as well on her final three dives as he’s seen her do. “You want to see your senior athletes go out with their best, and she did that despite the circumstances.”

Duffner finished 21st in the 100 fly.

DiMicco placed fourth in the 100 free, while LeBar took 21st.

Hazen took 16th in the 200-free relay (Gale, Anna Collons, McCormick and LeBar).

Tinseth finished fourth in the 100 breast. Brunings took 12th.

The Highlanders placed fifth in the 400-free relay (LeBar, Brunings, Wibmer and DiMicco). The Patriots took seventh in the event (Briggs, Duffner, Nelson and Tinseth).

Wertman said the Highlanders weren’t at their best during the first day of the meet. [ more SWIM page 19 ]

Special season for the Highlanders

BY ADAM MCFADDEN amcfadden@rentonreporter.com

There’s high school sports. Then there’s everything else. Striking a balance between the two is rarely as hard as it was for the Hazen girls soccer team this season.

“This season’s honestly been like an emotional roller coaster,” said senior Sarah Schoville. “You want to do so well every time out, but each team is going to have its downfalls and you have to learn from them.”

The Highlanders didn’t have many downfalls on the field. Hazen went 11-3-5 and finished undefeated in league play at 7-0-4. The team took the league’s top 3A seed into the playoffs. But what made this team special is what it went through off the field.

The team lost Hazen custodian and long-time superfan Joe Dahl and Lora Michaud, long-time supporter and mother of a current Hazen player, during the season.

“When you have to sit through two memorial services as a teenager for people that everybody here knew and everybody here loved, you realize there’s something else in life,” Matthews said. “It’s a pretty mature group of people.”

The losses were an inspiration for the team.

“We’re definitely more like a family now,” said freshman Emma Lorrigan, who spent time with both

JV and varsity this season.

“It has brought us closer together,” said sophomore Courtney Kitely. “We have something to play for now. We want to impress them.”

Another hurdle the team got over was being competitive against Kennedy Catholic. And while three ties, while leading for much of the time in all three games, may go down bit-

“We looked flat as a team on Friday,” he said.

Hazen went undefeated in league competition, won the league meet and won the district meet.

Kennedy Catholic Kennedy Catholic athletes Vanessa Moffatt, Anna Luksetich and Charlotte Dittmar, all of Renton, also made the 3A state meet.

Moffatt placed sixth in the 200 free and in the 500 free. Luksetich took 19th in the 200 free. Dittmarr took seventh in the dive competition.

Kennedy’s 200-free relay team (Moffatt, Luksetich, Audrey Griggs and Shaelanna White) placed 12th.

The Lancers’ 400-free relay team of Griggs, Natalie Mutter, Luksetich and Moffatt finished 10th.

Garl, Chelsey Guhlke and Abby Chufar).

Renton senior Lynhda Vuong finished 17th in the 100 free, while Zinsli took 20th in the event.

The Indians’ 400-free relay team of Sum Yee Lee, Angela Vu, Jordan Mattheisen and Vuong placed 20th. Lindbergh’s team of Chufar, Bailey Faull, Guhlke and Zinsli took 22nd.

ter for some, it’s sweet for those who have context.

“I’ve been on the team losing against Kennedy 10-0,” Schoville said. “It was definitely a disappointment immediately after the first couple of ties, but I wasn’t heartbroken.”

One of the biggest differences this season was the addition of junior

midfielder Dee Dee Green, a transfer from Kennedy. She brought an extra bit of intensity to the team.

“You always want to beat your old team,” Green said. “I had a little more fire in those games.”

After transferring, Green had to sit out part of the early season until she became eligible, something incredibly difficult for her. But once she was able to get on the field, she made an impact right away.

“She’s a very good soccer player, but what she brings to our team is kind of that warrior mentality,” Matthews said. “Sometimes it’s very difficult to find high school teams with that and she brings it for us.”

Green’s first game was against Highline Sept. 22. She scored in each of her first three games with the Highlanders.

In the end the Highlanders missed state by the slimmest of margins when Kelso knocked in a goal with 49 seconds left in a winner-to-state playoff game Nov. 5.

Even so, there’s definitely something brewing at Hazen.

The Highlanders lose big-time contributors in seniors like Schoville, Marina Vaughn and Priscilla Yu, but there is plenty of young talent around. The program is building confidence and talent each season.

“It’s a lot more competitive out here than last year,” said sophomore Melissa Carney. “It’s just different, we work a lot harder together.”
