Cavalia show features horse stunts, dazzling acrobatics Acrobatic equestrian performance starts tonight at Marymoor SAMANTHA PAK spak@redmond-reporter.com

From trick riders performing acrobatics atop speeding horses, to performers swinging through the air on flying trapezes, “Cavalia: A Magical Encounter Between Man and Horse” has something for horse lovers and non-horse lovers alike to enjoy.

The show will be under the

White Big Top at Marymoor Park at 6046 W. Lake Sammamish Pkwy N.E. near Redmond and premieres tonight – the original Wednesday opening night was postponed due to bad weather – but a special preview show was held Tuesday for local media, community leaders and local equestrian groups.

Cavalia is an equestrian and performing arts show, which features live music and multimedia special effects.

“There’s so much more here for everybody,” said performer Fairland Ferguson.

Ferguson is a trick and Ro-

man rider for the show.

As a trick rider, she performs flips and twists while riding a horse that is speeding across the arena. While some tricks require riders to be strapped to the horses by their feet, Ferguson said they are not strapped in to the point where they cannot fall.

“Trick riding is very technical,” she said.

Roman riding consists of performers standing with each foot on a horse as the two animals run side by side around the arena. Ferguson is

Red-light cameras are on their way out of Redmond, but the city’s two school-zone speed cameras will likely remain — at least until the end of the school year.

Redmond City Council is expected to approve a new contract with its traffic camera vendor to continue using the speed cameras near Einstein Elementary School through the end of the school year.

Meanwhile, the Redmond Police Department and the city’s traffic operation engineers are working together to formulate a comprehensive traffic plan, which could bring more speed cameras to other school zones.

“We are doing some speed analysis to see if it warrants more cameras in other school zones,” said Redmond Police Chief Ron Gibson.

Gibson said the city is looking at other options, such as speed indicator signs, engineering enhancements and warning lights to improve traffic safety at intersections and school zones. The plan also calls for educating residents through a public outreach program on traffic safety, Gibson said.

The chief said he plans to present the traffic safety plan to the City Council public safety committee in March.

The city’s current contract with American Traffic Solutions (ATS), which includes five red-light cameras at three intersections and two speed cameras on Northeast 116th Street near Einstein, will be terminated Jan. 31. That will mark the end of the controversial redlight cameras in the city. [ more TRAFFIC SAFETY page 2 ]

[2] January 20, 2012 [ TRAFFIC SAFETY from page 1] “We are not looking at camera enforcement at intersections,�

Gibson said.

Once approved by Council, the new contract will keep the two speed cameras near Einstein active through June 22. Any driver who goes over the 20 mph speed limit during the designated times before and after school will be tagged with a $124 fine.

City Council will likely okay the new contract at an upcoming special meeting later this month or at its Feb. 7 business meeting, according to Council president Pat Vache. “We all agree that speeding in school zones is flat out a bad idea,�

Vache said. “I don’t think there will be any issue of it passing.�

Council voted 7-0 last November to terminate its current

www.redmond-reporter.com contract with ATS because of inconclusive traffic and collision data. But council members showed support for the speed cameras in school zones and directed Mayor John Marchione to negotiate a new contract to continue the speed cameras at Einstein.

Vache said continuing the speed cameras at Einstein was “absolutely the appropriate thing to do there.� “Kids are kids, they are not the most careful,� Vache said. “It’s a dangerous place to be going fast.�

If the city does want to continue or add more speed cameras beyond the end of the school year, that will have to approved by City Council later this year.

But first the city wants to explore all it’s options. “We want to create a comprehensive plan as to how we can improve traffic safety in the city,�

Gibson said.

[ CAVALIA from page 1] the only female Roman rider in the show and in addition to her two horses, she acquires four more through some tricky maneuvering with other performers and steers all six horses around the arena. “It’s a lot of thinking and control and concentrating,� she said. “Your mind does not wander when you Roman ride.�

Cavalia began touring in 2003 and came to the Pacific Northwest with a run in Renton in 2004. The show was created in Montreal, Quebec by Normand Latourelle, who cofounded Cirque du Soleil in 1985.

Latourelle said the idea for an equestrian-based show came during the run of another show, which featured a horse during a short scene. That first show evolved to include more horses and Latourel-

le said the animals always stole the scene, which planted those first seeds for Cavalia. “I just realized that the horse was the most beautiful animal on earth,� Latourelle said, adding how he felt compelled to do a show featuring horses.

As he began researching the topic, a process that took about five years, Latourelle said he learned that the horse has been man’s companion throughout the ages. “Man wouldn’t be here without the horse,� he said.

It took another five years to actually create the show and Latourelle kept in mind the relationship between humans and horses throughout the whole process.

The show illustrates the humanhorse relationship through time – from the first encounter with wild horses to cowboys in the Wild West. There is no real storyline for

the show, but Latourelle said like a poem, the performance will evoke different moods, emotions and feelings among audiences during the show as they cover about 5,000 years in two-hours (with a 30-minute intermission).

Cavalia was the first time Latourelle created a show in which animals played a big role.

A performance usually features 35-38 horses, but there are 46 horses total in their stable. The show features 11 breeds of horses mainly from Spain, but some horses come from the south of France, Portugal, the Netherlands, Canada or the United States. The show horse’s average age is 8.

This month, the National Association of Music Merchants awarded Pacific Music a milestone award for its quarter-century commitment to the music products industry. NAMM, the industry’s international trade organization, will honor the shop this weekend at its annual trade show next week in Anaheim.

Weyand decided to open the shop because he saw a need for a family-run music store in Redmond. He did so a year after Microsoft opened its own doors and said the technology company has supplied the store with a steady customer base. “A lot of them say it’s the best part of their week,� he said with a laugh, adding that some Microsoft employees, who took lessons at the store as children, return today with their own kids. “Microsoft has had an impact on the store, and I like to think we’ve had a little impact on Microsoft too,� he said.

Gary Weyand has owned Pacific Music for 25 years and sells everything from mandolins to saxophones. The store also rents instruments, offers music lessons and makes repairs. AMY SISK, For the Reporter Since the shop opened, it has changed its location once, donated a number of instruments to charity and its instructors have taught

more than half a million music lessons to adults and children. All lessons are [ more PACIFIC MUSIC page 5 ]

private and typically cost $27 for a half-hour. More than 300 students come on a weekly basis.

Students can learn anything from drums to the sitar, but many gravitate toward the guitar. Weyand said people used to want to learn on electrics, but he has seen a shift back to acoustics in recent years as bluegrass and folk music increase in popularity.

One customer, 16-yearold Gabe Miles, said the store offers great deals on instruments, especially if buying used. He first rented an electric guitar to learn classic rock and has since

purchased the instrument.

Now, his brother and a friend also take lessons at the store. “It’s really personal – the teachers know what you want to learn,� Miles said. “They get to know your music taste and tune your lessons accordingly.�

Weyand said the instructors set the store apart from others in the area. “We knew the importance of getting quality teachers — people that are good with people,� he said.

The store’s 10 instructors frequently play in bands themselves and travel to music festivals around the world. They even play alongside their students several times a year during

student showcases, the next of which will be held at Redmond’s SoulFood Books the end of February.

Pacific also hosts an Open Mic night at Redmond’s JJ Mahoney’s the third Tuesday of every month.

As for the future? The store will continue to offer lessons, sell and rent instruments and make repairs. “Let’s just say we’re looking for another 25 years,�

Weyand said.

To sign up for lessons, call (425) 885-9703. Visit the store’s website at www. pacificmusic.com for more information about its services and instructors.

The store is located at 15935 Redmond Way.

Discovering budget holes Here’s one reason the state has a hole in its budget.

The state put its Discover Pass into effect July 1, 2011,

requiring people to buy one if they wanted to access state parks, heritage sites, wildlife and natural areas, and any recreation lands or water-access sites managed by Washington State Parks, the Washington State Department of Natural Resources and Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife.

The $30 pass (or $10 daily pass per vehicle) was projected to raise $15.6 million.

Actual revenue? Only $6.5 million.

A survey found people who had two cars balked at buying the pass because it wasn’t transferable between vehicles.

Wow. Who knew?

Hypocrisy taking its toll on State Route 520 bridge

R

ecently, I was driving to my dental appointment in West Seattle. No cavities, thank you very much.

I was driving over the 520 bridge listening to a commentator on a local news radio channel. As I passed under the tolling sensor and cruised across the bridge, the commentator began talking about that exact topic - tolling.

He was crowing about how he had been a long-time user of 520, remarking that he had used it for some 10 years, but now he had switched to using I-90 thanks to the horrible issue of tolling. This commentator boasted about how it only cost him six minutes more in the afternoon and, yeah, he had to get up a little earlier, but he was avoiding the toll - yippie!!!

He went on to talk about the fact that the state is going to raise tolls on the Narrows Bridge, between Tacoma and Gig Harbor, and is looking into tolling I-5 and I-405. They are all valid things to question and debate.

But it was his statements on tolling the I-90 bridge that got under my skin. He questioned how the state could have the audac-

ity to toll I-90 to pay for the new 520 bridge. This commentator, who ran for Governor in 2000, did not see the hypocrisy in his statements made not 20-seconds apart.

And he is not alone. I have heard many people, who are avoiding the tolls on 520, say the same thing. But here is the thing, I don’t understand how these people expect a new bridge to be built. Who do they expect to pay for it? Paul Allen? Bill Gates?

Because if it were built by a private entity, I guarantee you would be paying more than $3.50 during peak hours. That leaves it up to the state, or more specifically, us.

Is the toll set really high? Yes. Are there other issues like when will tolling end, when will the bridge be completed, and project waste? You bet. And all are valid issues.

But to crow about how you used the 520 bridge, contributed to its decay and then refuse to pay for its replacement, is irresponsible and maddening. You know how you prevent tolling on I-90 for many people who rarely use 520? Continue the route you took for 10 years. This can be debated, but I bet that a majority Matt Phelps

“Do you think there should be speed cameras in more Redmond school zones?”

The answer doesn’t mean the state should allow local school districts to raise whatever they can from local taxpayers. That would leave poor school districts even further behind wealthier areas – such as ours – in providing an education for their kids.

The answer is for the state to do its job. And it should find a way to do this sooner than 2018. Our kids need a decent education now.

TWO SENSE

Question of the week:

he Washington State Supreme Court ruled last week that the state is not complying with its constitutional duty to “make ample provision for the basic education of all children in Washington.”

Is anyone surprised?

It’s not just that the state is nickel-and-diming our kids; it’s more like it’s doing it by $5s and $10s.

We know the state has a financial problem. The Legislature convened Monday and lawmakers will have to deal with a $1 billion shortfall to the state’s budget. That makes finding adequate money for education all the more difficult.

But the court didn’t say “oh, in that case, ‘never mind.’” In fact, it has retained jurisdiction over the case to, as it says, “facilitate progress in the state’s plan to fully implement the reforms by 2018.”

That means it could take another six years before the state finally fixes our broken educational system and gives our kids the education they deserve and the state constitution says the state is legally bound to provide.

That timeframe is bad, but it’s actually worse. The case prompting the Supreme Court ruling was filed in 2007. A coalition of teachers, community groups and school districts, including Lake Washington School District, and parents argued that the state had not fulfilled its constitutional obligation to fully fund basic education and relied too heavily on local levies to do the job.

In other words, the state passed the buck to local taxpayers to do what it is required to do. Of course, the state also limits how much money we can raise locally to provide teachers in our classrooms.

The State Route 520 bridge started tolling its users on December 29 and the money raised will go toward building a new bridge. Courtesy of WSDOT of people outside this topic would agree: The best thing about tolling is that it is a user tax. People who use it, pay for it. They take responsibility and don’t force someone 200-miles away to pay for a bridge they will never use through a higher gas tax.

You are also costing other people who never use either bridge, to pay more as well. Sitting on I-405, in even more traffic than usual, while your car idles, costs people money inc gas, wear and tear on their car and time with their family.

I get not wanting to pay for

something you rarely use. But if I refused to pay my dentist after my checkup, that would be considered stealing. A service was rendered. I have to take responsibility and pay the bill when it comes due.

So the next time you get in your car and you decide whether to take I-90 or 520, when you have been using 520 for years, think about the cavities you are giving the rest of us if you decide to skip out on the bill.

The Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) boasted last summer that it had signed up more than a quarter of the U.S. Senate as cosponsors of PIPA. But on Wednesday, in response to the protest, many PIPA cosponsors began defecting – while previously undecided members of Congress from both houses and both parties announced their opposition, including half of Washington State's congressional delegation.

Until the days leading up to Wednesday's protest, opposition to SOPA and PIPA consisted of only a few courageous lawmakers, notably Ron Wyden, Jared Polis and Maria Cantwell (all progressive Democrats) along with Darrell Issa, Rand Paul, and Jerry Moran (all conservative Republicans).

But now, thanks to the coordinated day of action, the list has gotten much longer.

Opponents now outnumber proponents by a factor of almost two.

Lawmakers and their aides acknowledged that the joint progressive/ conservative grassroots protest had overwhelmed Congress' infrastructure.

The Capitol switchboard Andrew Villeneuve

FROM THE ROOTS

staggered through the day under a massive volume of calls. The websites of several lawmakers buckled and stopped working as a result of heavy traffic. And activists reported that they were unable to leave messages for their representatives due to clogged voicemail boxes.

Many took to Twitter and Facebook to open up a dialogue with their representatives, and fittingly, dozens of lawmakers taking sides against SOPA and PIPA chose to announce their decisions there.

“I can say, with all honesty, that the feedback I received from Arkansans has been overwhelmingly in opposition to the Senate bill,” Republican Senator John Boozman wrote in a Facebook note. “That is why I am announcing today that I intend to withdraw my support for the Protect IP Act [PIPA]. I will have my name removed as a cosponsor of the bill and plan to vote against it if Majority Leader Reid brings it to the floor in its current form.”

The fight is not over. The MPAA, which hilariously denounced the global protest as both a “stunt” and “an abuse of power," has vowed to continue pushing both SOPA and PIPA in Congress. But it will now have to contend with newly invigorated opposition, facilitated and powered by the open, free, and decentralized medium it wants so badly to censor and control.

O

n Wednesday, Capitol Hill was jolted by perhaps the most extraordinary protest ever organized in the history of the United States of America.

It wasn't a giant rally on the National Mall, or a march through the streets of D.C., or an occupation of the Capitol by upset citizens. Rather, it was an Internet strike – a coordinated virtual demonstration by thousands upon thousands of websites (including some well known sites like Google and Wikipedia) against a pair of dangerous bills that the Internet community believes would undermine and damage its integrity.

Instigated by Reddit, a social news site, Wednesday's day of action brought together an unprecedented coalition of companies, organizations, and individuals, who partially or completely darkened their websites to raise awareness of — and mobilize opposition to — the two bills, known as the “Stop Online Piracy Act” and the “Protect IP Act”. Tens of thousands of sites were estimated to have participated, with their message reaching tens of millions of people worldwide.

Written by Hollywood's lawyers, SOPA and PIPA, as they are known, are meant to make it easier for big media companies to take action against online copyright infringement, which they claim is eating into their profits. But major technology companies, civil liberties activists, bloggers, librarians, law professors, security experts, engineers, and entrepreneurs say that Hollywood's legislation which it drafted without any outside input - would imperil Internet freedom, stability, and security while doing little to stamp out infringement.

Strangely enough, this legislative battle does not correspond to party lines – or even ideological lines.

In this fight, progressive, conservative and libertarian activists find themselves united against powerful trade groups like the Motion Picture Association of America and the Recording

She has continued to run and compete in other races along with her daughter. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There were people of all shapes and sizes, so there was no pressure to be at a

Franco was not the fastest in the group, but that did not discourage her from showing up to the group runs. West gave her the tools to reach her goal and create viable training plans for future races. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I keep thinking about running, Jeremy made it

seem a lot more fun,â&#x20AC;? said Franco.

etting into better shape this year may only take a pair of running shoes â&#x20AC;&#x201D; no gym membership required.

Foot Zone, an Eastside running and walking store which has a location in Redmond, offers a free 12-week running program â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Couch to 5K â&#x20AC;&#x201D; for the Redmond and Bellevue communities.

For the past two years, Jeremy West, an employee at Foot Zone and an experienced runner, has led more than six training sessions in the Redmond area. This is the first year he is leading the program at the Bellevue location. West holds three training sessions a year, each in preparation for a 5K at the end of the 12 weeks.

The January session started Jan. 5, in preparation for the St. Patrickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day Dash in Seattle on March 17.

New yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s goals are able to extend into spring with the programâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second session beginning mid-May for the Foot Zone 5K in August.

Redmond participants meet at the Foot Zone in Redmond Town Center either one or two times a week in the evening for group runs on the Sammamish trail. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The best thing about running and also the most appealing, is that you can do it anywhere, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s free and 30 minutes a day will get you in great shape fast,â&#x20AC;? said West. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If someone can run for 30 minutes without walking then they are ready for a 5K.â&#x20AC;?

The training schedule is three days a week and is intended to be progressively more difficult each week, as the participants build their strength and endurance.

With more difficulty comes more pain, which is why the program teaches how to prevent injury with proper stretching technique and running form. On occasion, local chiropractors and physical therapists have offered their expertise to runners in this program.

ADELAIDE TILLINGHAST For the Reporter

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Twelve weeks is better than eight because it spreads out the training and prevents injury, making it more user friendly,â&#x20AC;? said West. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One of the reasons I started this program was because I was sick and tired of people coming in to get shoes and being injured because they are doing too much too soon.â&#x20AC;?

Every run is measured by time rather than distance because it is a better indicator of improvement in endurance. Each week the walking breaks get shorter and by week nine the walking breaks end. One of the goals of this program is to make exercising as simple to do as possible. It is easy for people to get discouraged if they do not feel what they are doing is an accessible goal. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jeremy helped me run farther than I had ever run before,â&#x20AC;? said Ginie Franco, who participated in this program last January. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Running can be scary and he made it seem less scary.â&#x20AC;?

Tips for training and losing fat cess Post-Exercise Oxygen Consumption. This oxygen is used for recovery processes that bring the body back to steady state.

We often refer to EPOC as oxygen deficit. High-intensity exercise can result in recovery periods that can last hours or even days.

So why is this important for you?

After exercise, the body continues to expend energy to assist with the recovery of the energy systems. Thus, the longer the recovery period, the longer your body continues to expend energy.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very simple. By incorporating some high-intensity workouts in your weekly routine, you will not only burn more calories during Carson Cook

ELECTRO FIT

W

hen we begin to exercise, our body decides which energy system to use depending on the intensity of the exercise.

At the start of exercise, depending on the difference between the demands before exercise and during exercise, there is usually a short delay in meeting necessary oxygen demands.

As we progress our activity, the oxygen demands are eventually met (the time is dependent on intensity).

When we stop exercising and the need for a higher supply of energy is reduced, the body continues to take in extra oxygen.

This excess oxygen is what we refer to as EPOC or Ex-

the workout, but you will burn additional calories during the recovery period and in turn burn fat.

Higher intensity equals larger oxygen deficit and a longer recovery period equates to more post-workout calories burned.

Simply aim for a workout in the 85-90 percent of your heart rate max once a week and your goal will be accomplished. Do anything that will make your heart work hard to pump oxygen-rich blood through your body. We offer this training at Electro Fit here in Redmond.

Acupuncture can help injured athletes recover faster A Nichole Santoro

A very effective and natural treatment for injury includes the use of acupuncture, massage and Chinese herbs. The acupuncture and herbs work hand in hand to increase circulation to the site, while decreasing swelling and mediating the inflammatory response.

Chinese herbs can be taken internally or used as a poultice applied externally to the injured area.

Specific massage techniques can be used to break up excess scar tissue and properly align the necessary scar tissue so that it is more highly functioning and resistant to re-injury.

It also helps to break up adhesions in nearby muscle groups to ensure maximum circulation and better joint alignment.

Many professional athletes make use of regular acupuncture and massage to help give them a competitive edge and aid in rehabilitation. For athletes at any level, this is valuable information that can teach

sensitive to pain.

Thus, the injury site has decreased range of motion and is more likely to re-injure.

In addition, as scar tissue matures, it contracts or shortens the fibers of the damaged tissue creating adhesions and knots which decrease the space for nerve, venous, artery and lymph flow. This in turn creates a situation of decreased circulation to the injured site and wasting of nearby muscle fibers, further weakening the area.

Even seemingly innocuous injuries to muscles and joints leave a lingering imprint on the body, and if not properly and timely treated, often allow low grade inflammation and a buildup of scar tissue in the area to occur. This is important for young athletes to recognize, as their mode of healing injuries can have long term impact on their athletic careers.

HEALTHY WAYS

cupuncture and Chinese Medicine can help athletes recover faster and more completely from injury and surgery.

Use of acupuncture, massage and herbs can not only significantly decrease healing time, but also break up scar tissue and clear inflammation.

This in turn results in a cleaner and more highly functioning wound site.

When inflammation is left untreated it causes a thickening of tendon and muscle in the local area in the form of scar tissue.

This is helpful for the body in terms of protecting the weakened area, however presents problems in the form of loss of range of motion, impaired usage and chronic pain.

Scar tissue is not as highly functioning as regular muscle and connective tissue because it is less pliable, not as strong, and more

CITYâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S DOWNHILL DASH SET FOR FEB. 5

tâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always said that records are made to be broken.

But for Redmond teen Zach Sweetser, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s safe to say his record will stand for good.

The 17-year-old recently became the youngest to ever earn a certified sport pilotâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s license, having taken the test on Dec. 23, his birthday, and passing with flying colors.

The minimum age to Zach Sweetser become sport pilotcertified in the United States is currently 17.

Sweetser flew in a powered parachute for the exam, one of six qualified types of aircraft including gliders, gyroplanes and airships. He said he hopes to use his recent accomplishment as a steppingstone to a career in aviation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I basically plan on doing it professionally, as a commercial airline pilot,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the plan.â&#x20AC;?

top-of-the-line two-seater, a powered parachute is basically a parachute attached to a lightweight cage with a motor and wheels.

While the minimum logbook requirements to take the pilotâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exam are 12 total hours, including two solo flights, Sweetser got much more experience in.

By his estimations, when Dec. 23 rolled around he had amassed 18 or 19 hours of flight time including six solo trips to the sky. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was pretty prepared for it,â&#x20AC;? he admitted.

He was actually more nervous about the written test, administered by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), but his fears proved to be a non-issue as he scored 93 percent. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an actual written test you have to study for, multiple-choice,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was more of a school thing than hands-on, like flying.â&#x20AC;?

For the actual flight exam, Sweetser traveled back to Arlington to meet with examiner Doug Maas, and fired up his Six Chuter Spirit plane on what was a clear, still day. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a perfect day for weather, â&#x20AC;&#x153; Sweetser recalled. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I warmed up the plane and he watched me do my preflight checks, and make sure I knew how to prepare the airplane.â&#x20AC;?

After that, he was told to plan out a cross-country trip with two stops, totaling 30 miles, and estimate travel time and fuel burn, and took more oral tests on FAA regulations and emergency situations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;After we got done with pre-flight, I had to treat him as if he was a passenger, so I had to tell him what would happen in a worst-case scenario, what to expect when we take off, the feelings of the flight. itself,â&#x20AC;? Sweetser explained.

PREP REPORT

From there we took off and he had me fly straight out over fields and farmlands, do a couple maneuvers including an â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Sâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; curve and a 360-degree constant altitude turn. And then he simulated an engine failure and asked me what Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d do, and I pointed to where Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d land.

Once I landed, he congratulated me and from there it was all paperwork. It was pretty fun.â&#x20AC;?

Now, Sweetser looks to move onto fixed-wing aircraft at a flight school in Arlington called Out of the Blue Aviation, but a couple years down the road, he hopes to find himself in Ellensburg where he will begin his career hopes as a commercial pilot. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m really planning on is going to Central Washington University and taking their aviation program,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There, you can basically get your private instrument, commercial and ATP (licenses), which is Airline Transport Pilot. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll take you all the way through, and some airlines, from what Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve heard, can actually take you in after you graduated.â&#x20AC;?

Finally, Sweetser made sure to thank his parents, Todd and Kristin for their support, and a whole host of people, including his pilot neighbor, Jay Uuisitalo, who made his dream of flying possible. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to thank Mark Martin, he was the one who took me up and gave me the opportunity to start flying powered parachutes,â&#x20AC;? Sweetser said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rick Gutierrez also helped me outâ&#x20AC;Ś Doug, my examiner, who came all the way from Battle Ground a couple days before Christmas to test me. Scott Zumwalt was the one who actually introduced me to Mark, so heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of the main reasons I even got into this, and started the path to go this direction.â&#x20AC;?

REPORTER STAFF

Performing in a 4A Kingco meet last Friday, the Redmond High gymnastics team had their best performance of the season during last Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 4A Kingco meet, scoring 148.4 team points to edge out Lake Washington (148.05) and Eastlake (114.25).

ARTFUL VENEERS For patients with tooth imperfections, resin bonding provides an effective and affordable means of remedying tooth discolorations, gaps, and chips. However, porcelain veneers are superior in terms of strength, durability, and aesthetics.

These factors may make porcelain veneers preferable to bonding for correcting tooth defects, particularly in the most visible teeth. In addition, porcelain veneers may be used to lengthen a tooth and to give the illusion that malpositioned teeth are straighter. The veneers are rigid shells that are firmly attached to outer tooth surfaces once the surfaces have been prepared to accept them. This preparation consists of removing a thin layer of enamel and etching the surface.

Usually three office visits are required for the entire process.

Resin bonding can be just the ticket for a more beautiful smile. Good cosmetic dentistry can give you a smile that is the envy of others. Beautiful and healthy smiles are a team effort.

We can discuss all of your options with you and help you decide if bonding is right for your situation. At CHRIS CLAVE DMD, FAMILY and SPORTS DENTISTRY, you will be treated by professionals who have the experience and knowledge you can trust. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re looking for a family, cosmetic, or sports dentist, we welcome you to call 425.641.4111 and make an appointment with Dr. Clave. Our â&#x20AC;&#x153;personal touchâ&#x20AC;? philosophy is reflected throughout our practice in many ways.

Holt has been volunteering for about eight months and said it has taken a bit of time for visitors at the RSC to know who she is and what she does. But it has paid off as she has gone from one or two people approaching her during a single shift to about a dozen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It gets better and more interesting every time I go,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really satisfying when I can show someone a route.â&#x20AC;?

Holt added that the people she meets with are usually deciding to stop driving and she helps them learn what their transportation options are.

While GAPS is very much a volunteer-based

program, someone has to show them what to do, which is where Sloan-Evans plays a role. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I provide training for volunteers to go out into the community,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Sloan-Evans said with the grant money, they will work to expand GAPS. Currently, they have volunteers in six different communities throughout the Eastside and Shoreline. At the end of the month, Hopelink will add Lake Forest Park to its roster and continue to expand throughout King County.

agencies, medical providers and other community organizations to provide free training for their staff.

She said this Travel Ambassadors program empowers other agencies to help their clients directly, â&#x20AC;&#x153;rather than have everyone call (Hopelink).â&#x20AC;?

In addition to helping other organizations, Zeidman said Hopelink is also part of the King County Mobility Coalition (KCMC).

This brings together individual advocates, agencies and other parties to address transportation issues and find ways to improve things.

Zeidman said KCMC pro-

motes dialogue and collaboration among the different parties involved.

There are also smaller groups throughout the county that serve their respective geographical areas such as the Eastside Easy Rider Collaborative (EERC) and focus on specific issues affecting these areas.

Zeidman said the federal money they received will help them expand to south King County and staff the north King County group.

the same time. But it took a year or two to find our musical connection.â&#x20AC;?

But that connection has taken the two friends around the world with their band the Fleet Foxes. Their second full-length album, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Helplessness Blues,â&#x20AC;? was recently nominated for a Grammy Award. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We never really had aspirations past just playing together,â&#x20AC;? said Skjelset over the phone from New York. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It has never been about getting somewhere with it.

We just love playing music.â&#x20AC;?

The band has been around since the two attended Lake Washington High School when they played under the name The Pineapples. The bandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first show was at the Old Fire House Teen Center in Redmond. [ more FLEET FOXES page 17 ]

ing the same if we grew up somewhere like L.A. or New York. Growing up in Kirkland was part of that.â&#x20AC;?

That sound has put the band in an interesting spot between alternative music and folk music. Their Grammy nomination comes in the Best Folk Album category and pits them against some of their idols. Pearl Jam front man Eddie Vedderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ukulele Songsâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Harrow and The Harvestâ&#x20AC;? from Gillian Welch. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are nominated with Eddie Vedder, like THE Eddie Vedder,â&#x20AC;? said Skjelset. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is nuts. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nice to know people like your music.â&#x20AC;?

But the Grammy nomi-

nation is not a make or break issue for the band. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am really appreciative but we would still be hanging out and playing music without it,â&#x20AC;? said Skjelset.

Along with the Grammy nomination, the band members have had some exciting moments in their young careers. Rolling Stone magazine chose â&#x20AC;&#x153;Helplessness Bluesâ&#x20AC;? as the No. 4 album of the year. They have also played some big stages like Saturday Night Live, David Letterman, Abbey Road Studios and the Bridge School Benefit Concert. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When we played the Bridge School Benefit we got to meet Neil Young and his

wife and kids,â&#x20AC;? said Skjelset. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have been pretty lucky to meet some great people.â&#x20AC;?

The band is also starting to branch out with individual members working on side projects and releasing solo albums.

But despite the fact that the band has scattered a bit from the Seattle area where it got its start and is on the road a lot, they still have a connection with each other

and the Pacific Northwest.

Pecknold, who grew up in Redmond and Magnolia, along with the Houghton and Highlands neighborhoods of Kirkland, now lives in Portland. Skjelset recently moved to New York.

The 54th Annual Grammy Awards will air on CBS Feb. 12.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;We played two or three times at the Lyonsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Den in Bothell and Victorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Coffee in Redmond,â&#x20AC;? said Skjelset.

The band got noticed pretty quickly after changing its name, adding a few more members to the lineup and playing their first show as the Fleet Foxes at Neumos on Capitol Hill in Seattle. The band signed with the Seattle music label Sub Pop, a subsidiary of Warner Bros. Records, in January 2008.

They released their first album in 2008, simply titled â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fleet Foxes,â&#x20AC;? and toured for a year to support the album.

Skjelset said the members of the band have a pretty diverse background in styles. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all pretty eclectic.

Robin is more into folk music, Morgan (Henderson) was in the thrash band Blood Brothers in Kirkland and I really like stuff like Sonic Youth,â&#x20AC;? said Skjelset. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our sound is pretty organic.â&#x20AC;?

The band utilizes vocal harmonies and acoustic instruments. Pecknold writes most of the vocals and music, while Skjelset brings a distinct lead guitar sound. He has branched out to playing the mandolin and lap slide to extend the bandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sound, but

also plays the bass clarinet in his free time. He said he likes branching out to new instruments to keep things fresh and helps him to learn more about guitar. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think this music draws influence and inspiration from popular music and folk rock of the mid â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;60s to the early â&#x20AC;&#x2122;70s â&#x20AC;Ś,â&#x20AC;? Pecknold wrote on the Sub Pop website.

Pecknold sites musicians such as Peter, Paul and Mary, John Jacob Niles, Bob Dylan, The Byrds, Neil Young, CSN and Judee Sill as inspiring the Fleet Foxesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; sound. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Northwest is such a beautiful and inspiring place,â&#x20AC;? said Skjelset. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t imagine the music sound-
