Council adopts moratorium on marijuana regulations ANDY NYSTROM

There wasn’t much pot talk at Tuesday night’s Redmond City Council meeting.

With a public hearing on the docket to discuss marijuana regulations, nobody was on hand to speak other than council members and Rob Odle, the city’s director of planning and community development.

Following a four-minute evaluation, the four council members present — Hank Margeson, Kim Allen, Hank Myers and John Stilin — all voted in favor of adopting a six-month interim zoning ordinance prohibiting medical marijuana collective gardens and other cannabis-related facilities and uses.

Technically, it’s a short-term moratorium, Allen said.

“We are monitoring closely what’s happening in Olympia to get some guidance before we go and pass local ordinances to implement this,” she added. “Our police chief is involved, our planning and public works department are involved.

Everybody is watching this very carefully because we want to do it right.”

With the passing of Initiative 502 in November, Odle said the state is in the process of devising regulations through the liquor control board as to who can produce, process and sell cannabis. Those three phases need to be completed

by December, and Odle added that city officials will take the state’s “umbrella regulations” and adapt those to Redmond.

“Hopefully they’ll combine both the recreational use and medicinal use into one distribution plan,” Margeson said.

If anyone was in the Queen Anne neighborhood of Seattle last Friday evening, they would have seen hundreds of people lined up along 5th Avenue North, just outside the Experience Music Project (EMP) Museum.

From the elementary school-aged kids eager to have some fun (possibly) past their bedtimes, to the middle-aged men and women feeling nostalgic about long-forgotten moments from their childhood, to the individuals just tagging along, everyone was waiting to enter Game Nite. This celebration held at the EMP was in honor of its new exhibit: the Smithsonian American Art Museum’s The Art of Video Games, which explores the 40-year evolution of video games and focuses on influential artists and designers of game graphics, storytelling and player interactivity.

Game Nite was sponsored by DigiPen Institute of Technology in Redmond and had something for gamers of all ages and skill levels.

CROSS-GENERATION FUN

Fans of the classics were able to participate in live, tournament-style gaming and see Mario, Sonic the Hedgehog and all of their favorite video game characters come to life on the big screen in EMP’s Sky Church.

“For me, it’s the social aspect,” he said about why he enjoys gaming. “It’s not as much fun if you don’t have people playing with you.”

Hopsoh moved on to online and social

games such as “World of Warcraft” for a while but now that he is a father, he has found a new gaming partner in his 5-year-old son Sylvan McFarland and has returned to old console games. [ more games page 13 ]

Cirque du Soleil boosts local economy Samantha Pak spak@redmond-reporter.com

While Cirque du Soleil’s run of “Amaluna” at Marymoor Park in unincorporated King County outside of Redmond provides the area with a few months’ worth of entertainment, there are other benefits to having the Cirque in town.

“Amaluna,” which will be in town

through March 24, could infuse about $10 million to $15 million into the local community.

Jamie Reilly, company manager for the show, said the money covers various expenses including local taxes, fuel costs, site rental fees and accommodations for performers and workers while they are in town.

“We contract more or less 6,500

room nights for one (show run),” she said, explaining that a “room night” is the number of people on tour, multiplied by the number of nights of lodging needed.

Reilly said they strive to find corporate apartments to rent to ensure show employees have a kitchen and other housing amenities so [ more cirque page 11 ]

The world is changing on a regular basis, and policy needs to keep up with that, says Congresswoman Suzan DelBene.

The United States needs comprehensive immigration reform, “it will help us get on a better path,” she told a group of local high-tech business leaders during a roundtable discussion on Wednesday afternoon at Concur Technologies in Redmond.

“I think we need a system that works for everybody,” said the First Congressional District representative, noting that Congress needs to pinpoint what the costs are and make sure that people understand the reform. It’s not just for businesses searching for high-skilled workers, but for people who are looking at coming to the United States.

We’re proud Democrats who represent our districts, not a party

February 22, 2013 [5]

By Sens. Rodney Tom and Tim Sheldon

Here’s a question we have never heard from a constituent: “Why can’t you be more partisan and divisive and forget about getting things done?”

Believe it or not, the state Democratic Party is saying just that. In a resolution adopted at its recent central committee meeting in Olympia, the state party charged us with not reflecting “Democratic values” and being “disloyal” to the party.

Why? Because in December we openly recognized the fact that neither Democrats nor Republicans in the state Senate possessed the 25 votes needed to effectively govern. We understand that it is the role of political parties to put politics before all else, but as elected officials and leaders, we have a higher responsibility. We have to get things done.

As the two Democratic members of the Senate’s new Majority Coalition Caucus, we find this accusation of “disloyalty” to be small-minded, petty and factually untrue. We have never betrayed our core beliefs, and regardless of what some self-important potentates in Olympia and Seattle pronounce, we are still proud Democrats.

We have served our respective legislative districts for many years now. The people in our local communities know us and know that we are committed to representing them. We work for them, not a political party.

If you look at the choices made by voters in our districts, we are right in line on social issues, taxes, the need for education reform and a responsible budget.

our turn

The messages our constituents have sent are very clear: Fund and improve our education system, Rodney Tom Tim Sheldon balance the budget without new taxes, and get our families back to work. Appropriately, that has been the focus of our coalition since the 2013 legislative session started in mid-January: jobs, education and the budget.

Exactly what part of encouraging job creation, creating a quality, well-funded education system and producing a sustainable, balanced budget is a betrayal of Democratic values?

We owe it to the people who have repeatedly chosen to send us to the Capitol, and to the people of this state, to represent them and to work effectively with legislators of both parties to solve problems.

When political partisanship flies in the face of what the majority of our constituents want, we side with the people, not the party. Our districts voted overwhelmingly in support of a two-thirds majority requirement to raise taxes. So does siding with the 64 percent of Washingtonians who voted for Initiative 1185 in November upset some of the extreme elements of the party? Perhaps. Will that deter us from doing what we know is right for this state’s hard-working taxpayers?

Of course not.

As far as our loyalty is concerned, we are loyal to the principles we have always held and to the constituents who have sent us to Olympia. We are not switching sides. We always have, and always will, be on the side of the people we represent, and side with them over any political party.

Sen. Rodney Tom, D-Bellevue, is Senate Majority Leader and represents the 48th Legislative District, which includes Redmond. Sen. Tim Sheldon, DPotlatch, is Senate President Pro Tempore and has been elected as a Democrat to the Legislature nine times.

Sounding off on RESPECT, homeless I felt compelled to comment on articles in your Feb. 15 paper.

The RESPECT program to me seemed more like a probe/reality show wannabe. Where is the respect for privacy and for efficient use of educational time and resources. More videos with less precious educational time? We pay our teachers to teach, not be forced to follow the latest whatever fad. The article on building resilience may have been more of an ad, but it was where the RESPECT program should have been.

More disturbing was the article on homelessness, not because of homelessness, but the definition thereof.

I have known people who lived in hotels/motels/ boarding homes because that was the family business. Very good homes. Shared homes only means shared expenses; nothing wrong with that. Substandard homes doesn’t mean the family structure is bad.

Besides, what is substandard?

What really upset me was the reference to trailer parks/campgrounds as homeless, somehow evoking the term “trailer trash”; no respect there. In the last three years of travel RVing, I have seen many different camp/RV/trailer areas. I have watched 20-30 children get off school buses into the welcoming arms of their parents. I have seen three generations making do with what they could afford, but by no means homeless or unhappy. Yes, I have seen an occasional “trailer trash” family, but even they had support from neighbors.

What struck me the most in the last years were the couples who had to sell their homes, traveling about to look for work, some homeschooling, others perhaps leaving children with relatives, but the best was a family of three girls, husband and wife, who we got to know ever so briefly. The husband worked bringing gas to construction machinery. He had a SOLID job, but with the recession, it took him further than he could travel home each night. So for two years, the family would be living near his work. Yes, the girls missed their old friends (now in a new school) and the mom missed her more permanent neighbors, but they had DAD every night! The five of them, when homework and dishes were done, were out playing in any of the open RV spots. They would be very upset to be called HOMELESS, but would prefer the RESPECT of their resiliency!

I firmly support and applaud groups like Friends of Youth, but I really applaud families who make tough choices to remain together and off government/charity programs. That is my true respect.

Barbara Dickson, Redmond

I want my vote back Where do we line up to get a vote back? Those of us who voted for Rodney Tom last time understood him to be a Democrat. He said he was. In a Democratic district it made sense to say that you were one, too, if you wanted to get elected. Now he is the “Democrat” leading the state senate Republicans in their assaults on

minimum wage, people who are sick and educators.

He got my vote under false pretense. That won’t happen again.

David Wobker, Redmond

What’s in our food?

As a concerned citizen and someone who is pursuing a passion for everything food and activist-related, I believe we have the right to know what is in the food we are providing for our families, as well as how that food was produced.

There are no long-term studies showing the lasting effects of genetically engineered food on animals, humans and our planet, but evidence suggests that there are significant risks associated with genetically engineered food because of the widespread use of pesticides that go along with these crops. Do we really want 2,4-D, a chemical component found in Agent Orange and also in some of Monsanto’s pesticides, on the loose in our soil and — even worse — in our bodies?

Organizations like Food & Water Watch are calling for labeling genetically engineered foods in Washington. It’s time that we put public health and the health of our planet ahead of greedy corporations. I deserve the right to know what I’m feeding my family and am asking for our government officials and residents of Washington to support the recently qualified WA I-522 ballot initiative in November this year.

Ali is making an impact on the real-estate scene

Redmond resident Hamid Ali (left) was part of a group that worked to bring former Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf to the area. Musharraf served from 2001 to 2008.

Samantha Pak spak@redmond-reporter.com

Hamid Ali is living the American dream.

He moved to the United States from Islamabad, Pakistan in 2003 to attend the University of Maryland, where he received a master’s degree in marketing in 2005 and a master’s in business administration in 2007. He got married and moved to Redmond with his wife in January 2009 when she was offered a software engineer position with Microsoft Corp.

Upon their arrival, Ali applied for marketing positions with several companies but nothing came from them.

“I was so pissed and so worried about my future,” he said.

Feeling discouraged, Ali called an uncle living on the East Coast who suggested he try real estate. Ali received his real estate license in May 2009 and after interviewing with a number of companies in the area, started working at the John L. Scott Real Estate office in downtown Redmond.

Despite now being employed, things weren’t looking

up for Ali initially. He only made one sale that year and was upset and disappointed with himself. Things began improving for him in 2010, in which he made 15-17 sales, putting him in the top 15 percent of sales in the company, which has about 3,100 agents.

Ali received the John L. Scott President’s Award for this achievement. The next year told the same story and Ali received his second President’s Award.

For 2012, the 33-year-old received the company’s President’s Elite Award for being in the top 2 percent in sales. Ali made almost 30 sales last year, bringing in $11 million to $12 million. He said his goal is to make the company’s top 1 percent within two or three years.

“People really supported me and I’m really thankful to my community,” he said.

Ali said the thing about real estate is that it “is all about connections” and getting your name out there. Once he realized this, he began building those connections and getting his name out there by getting involved in the community.

He joined the Pakistan

Association of Greater Seattle (PAGS) in late summer of 2009 and was later named the youngest board member for the organization. Ali is also an active member of the Muslim Association of Puget Sound (MAPS) in Redmond and became involved in The Citizens Foundation and was part of a team that raised money to build nine schools in Pakistan.

Through his involvement in these various organizations, Ali has helped bring wellknown politicians, entertainers, athletes and religious leaders from Pakistan to the Seattle area to meet with the local community. Some of those names include former Pakistani president Pervez Musharraf, who served from 2001 to 2008, and Imran Khan, a current Pakistani politician and former cricketer.

By being part of these high-profile visits, Ali was able to get his name out in the community, creating more visibility for his professional life.

“Every single event, I got involved somehow,” Ali said.

“I didn’t want to miss any opportunity.”

Shoulders are rather indispensable. And it’s amazing the things you can do with them when they don’t hurt all the time.

If you’ve put part of your life on hold because of shoulder pain, then come to a free seminar at Swedish — the place that does hundreds of shoulder surgeries every year.

An expert surgeon will answer all your questions about shoulder replacement, non-surgical options, and other sport-related injuries.

So take the plunge. Our seminars take just two hours, and the rest of your active life is waiting.

Since The British Pantry opened in 1978, it has gone through a number of expansions to include Neville’s Restaurant and The Three Lions Pub. And this year, the family run business will be expanding beyond its downtown Redmond location as Three Lions will be opening two new locations this spring: One at 23525 N.E. Novelty Hill Rd., A-101 on Redmond Ridge and one at 10111 Main St. in downtown Bothell.

Alvia Redman, who took over running things with her brother Neville after their mother Mavis “semiretired,” said Three Lions was the newest addition to the company. The pub opened in 2006 after the dress shop that previously

The Three Lions Pub in Redmond will open two new locations. The business is run by the Redman family.

From left: Alvia Redman, Graham Redman, Andrew Pollock and Jeff Perras. Samantha Pak, Redmond Reporter occupied the space at 8115 161st Ave. N.E. closed.

“It was something me and my brother had always dreamed about,” she said about opening a pub.

Redman said when her mother started the Pantry, it fulfilled a need in the community and gave British ex-pats a place to go that reminded them of home. Three Lions was a continuation of this, fill-

ing a different need in the community. While a lot of the clientele is in their 30s, Redman said their demographics range from mid-20s to 60s. The pub also brings in soccer fans as they air matches every week.

“They will all be talking and getting along,” Redman said about the customers who frequent the pub, adding that they are her favor-

ite part of Three Lions. “It’s just fun to walk in here.”

She likened Three Lions to “Cheers” as they have a number of regulars who all know each other by name and will even bring in cards for people to sign when it’s someone’s birthday. They are also always welcoming and willing to pull newcomers into the fold, Redman said.

Andrew Pollock has

be hard in a new location, but he is looking forward to a new challenge.

Like the current Three Lions in Redmond, the Bothell location will be 21 and older. Redman said they plan to keep the same hours, opening from 11:30 a.m. to 11 p.m. on weekdays and extending their hours to 1 a.m. on weekends. However because downtown Bothell is near the University of Washington, Bothell and Cascadia Community College, she said they may extend their hours later on the weekend for the student crowd.

On Redmond Ridge, Redman said the new Three Lions will be open to all ages. The pub will be separated into two rooms upon entry, with an underage area on one side and a 21 and older area on the other. Each area will have the same menu.

Redman said they chose to do this to accommodate the population on Redmond Ridge.

“There are more families up there,” she said.

Redmond City Council member Stilin will seek re-election Redmond City Council member John Stilin announced that he will run for a second term in the November 2013 elections.

“I am proud to call Redmond my home,” said Stilin, “but I am even John Stilin more proud of the progress we’ve made in my last four years on the Redmond City Council.

I intend to continue on a path that preserves the uniqueness of Redmond while embracing change, and ensure Redmond is a safe, culturally rich and economically vibrant city.

I want all citizens of our community to be proud to call Redmond ‘home.’”

During Stilin’s first term on the council, he supported city plans to focus development in its two urban centers while preserving neighborhoods. more story online… www.redmond-reporter.com

It’s all about education for Redmond’s Sen. Hill Between the state Senate’s passage of schoolsafety and construction proposals, public hearings in the Senate budget committee on two educationimprovement bills and visits from Redmondbased students, the focus on education in recent weeks is just what Sen. Andy Hill of Redmond had in mind for the 2013 legislative session.

On Feb. 11, the Senate passed legislation that would require school districts to add alarm systems connected directly with law enforcement and added safety-related design requirements when constructing or remodeling schools. It also authorized the sale of $475 million in bonds to fund the School Construction Assistance Program in the state’s next two-year budget cycle.

That program provides funding for new buildings and upgrades.

“This is an important first step towards making our schools safer,” said Hill (45th District). “I’m looking forward to making progress inside the

classroom, by increasing the ‘outputs’ of our state’s education system. As I continue crafting the new state budget, I am focused on making sure not only that K-12 education is amply provided for, but that we have strong earlylearning programs and an accessible higher-education system.”

Hill was also pleased to visit with more than 90 fourth- and fifth-graders from Explorer Community School and Sunrise Elementary in Redmond who were in Olympia for a tour of the state Capitol.

She said a number of retailers and restaurants are also offering special discounts to “Amaluna” ticket holders throughout the show’s run. For example, customers can present their “Amaluna” ticket at Macy’s any time for a one-day savings pass. At Matts’ Rotisserie and Oyster Lounge, ticket holders can receive a free appetizer on the day of the show they are attending.

With 120 permanent workers — 52 artists and 68 support staff — staying in Redmond, “Amaluna” is more than just a traveling show. Reilly described them as “a small village” complete with generators, schools and four full-time traveling chefs.

“We buy food locally to feed 120 people,” she said, adding that the chefs prepare about 400 meals per day for everyone.

“Amaluna” also relies on local support. Reilly said they hire 200-300 people locally to work as ushers, janitors, prep cooks, receptionists and other customer service positions.

Hopsoh said gaming for Sylvan has been a source of creativity as he will draw scenes from the games he plays and come up with his own characters.

Sylvan, who attended Game Nite with his dad dressed up as Mario, said he enjoys playing video games “because there’s lots of cool stuff.”

He will be holding a workshop for educators at EMP on Saturday to show them how they can use game development as a learning vehicle in multiple disciplines.

For example, students can learn about the hero’s journey by examining video games’ story lines.

Yan said including video games in lesson plans builds students’ enthusiasm using technology they are most likely familiar with navigating.

Other highlights of Game Nite included a test arcade featuring the latest projects from DigiPen students. GeekGirlCon — a local community organization celebrating and honoring women in all areas of “geek culture” including science and technology, comics, arts, literature, game play and game design — was also onsite with a crafts table where people were able to create perler bead designs of their favorite 8-bit video game characters.

“There’s so much stuff that goes into game design.

Education is really important.”

Jason Pace, University of Washington, Bothell Center for Serious Play executive director

Alyssa Jones, manager of gaming for GeekGirlCon, said they have done several EMP events in the past and Game Nite in particular was a great fit for them “since it’s very geeky.”

MORE THAN WHAT MEETS THE EYE

Another highlight of the evening were the spotlight talks, which were presented by DigiPen and featured video game professionals.

Yan and University of Washington, Bothell Center for Serious Play executive director Jason Pace spoke about what it takes to be a video game designer. The two men told a packed JBL Theatre that there is a big difference between playing video games and designing them.

“There’s so much stuff that goes into game design,” said Pace, a former Microsoft employee and lead producer of Halo Wars for Xbox 360. “Education is really important.”

Yan added that the gaming industry is constantly changing.

“We don’t know what it’s going to be like 10 years from now. We don’t know what it’ll be like two years from now,” he said. “Our success is always going to be tied to innovation.”

Yan said events such as Game Nite and the Art of Video Games exhibit are important in connecting game developers with their fans and giving people the opportunity to learn about what it really takes to create a video game. He said the exhibit will also be of interest for those in the industry.

After walking through it, Yan said he learned a lot about the background of various video games and why things are the way they are.

“Nothing in a game we make is by chance,” he said.

Terex teams up with ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex Genie lift equipment provides solutions to ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex for a variety of application needs on a daily basis. Genie scissor and boom lifts are regularly used as elevated platforms for cameras and camera operators to tape and broadcast sporting events at the sports complex. The lifts are also used to perform

ongoing maintenance at the 255-acre site. Additionally, Terex-branded light towers will light up popular run Disney races that take place throughout the theme parks each year.

To commemorate the sponsorship, Terex has custom painted a new Genie S-60X telescopic boom as a way to inaugurate the alliance. It is
