LWSD seeks input on overcrowding issue MARY STEVENS DECKER
REPORTER STAFF
The Redmond Pool at Hartman Park is in the last stage of its needed repairs and the City of Redmond plans to re-open the pool in late October, according to Mark Hickok, the City of Redmond’s Recreation Division assistant manager, who is supervising the pool repairs. After the pool reopens, the first priority of WAVE Aquatics, the new pool operator, is to begin lap swimming and the swim teams. Following in the next few weeks will be a variety of programs for the community. WAVE is very familiar with community pools and currently operates the Juanita Pool. The final pool construction projects are scheduled to begin the week of Sept. 27. The city has contracted for new drains to be installed, required by federal regulations; the pool to be chemically washed; new lane lines painted; fiberglass stairs repaired; new filters installed and generally to get the pool into shape for water. “You will see a dramatic difference,” Hickok said of the renovated pool. Once these projects are complete, the pool will be filled with water and all the systems restarted. The normal time frame for pool chemicals to balance is one week. After all has proved to operate smoothly, the pool will re-open. “There is a light at the end of the tunnel,” Hickok said. “We are all looking forward to opening this pool.” The City of Redmond continues to provide regular updates on its Web site at www.redmond.gov and hotline at (425) 556-2375.

The Lake Washington School District (LWSD) wants residents to offer input on ways to solve overcrowding problems now and in the future. Public input sessions will be held as follows: • 6-8 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 28, Eastlake High School, 400 228th Ave. NE, Sammamish • 6-8 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 30, Juanita High School, 10601 NE 132nd St., Kirkland • 5-7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 6, LWSD Resource Center, 16258 NE 74th St., Redmond The same information will go online Saturday, Sept. 25 at www.lwsd.org and online input will be accepted through Oct. 7. In Part 1 of this two-part series about overcrowding in the LWSD, the Redmond Reporter will focus on current enrollment concerns, mostly at the elementary level. Part 2 will examine projected overcrowding at the junior high/middle school and high school levels, as the LWSD shifts to new grade configurations (K-5, 6-8 and 9-12) in fall of 2012 and beyond.

Several elementary schools in the LWSD — notably, Rosa Parks and Albert Einstein in Redmond and Margaret Mead in Sammamish — are now crunched for space, said LWSD communications director Kathryn Reith. Rosa Parks Elementary in the Redmond Ridge development was built for 500 students. In its fifth year,
Rosa Parks Elementary School principal Dr. Lin Zurfluh is concerned about her school’s rising enrollment. “Besides needing more classrooms, we need basic core infrastructure, such as the Commons area where children eat. Right now, we have three lunch shifts,” she said. BILL CHRISTIANSON, Redmond Reporter
the school’s enrollment is nearly 700. “It quickly escalated beyond our projections,” said Dr. Lin Zurfluh, the new principal at Rosa Parks. Much of this is due to ongoing development such as Redmond Ridge East. “Every time they sell a home, we get a new family,” said Zurfluh. “And we’re happy to have them, but unlike schools with a stable population, we grow throughout the year.” Currently, all classrooms at Rosa Parks are full and there are eight more classes housed in four portable units. Earlier on the day of the Redmond Reporter’s visit, Zurfluh walked the Rosa Parks grounds with Forrest Miller, the LWSD’s director of facilities, to discuss where more portables might be added as needed. Each property in the district has a different capacity

The Importance of your cars Owners’ Handbook
Every car is equipped with an owner’s handbook when the car is delivered to the new car buyer. How many of those excited new car buyers actually take that little book out of the glove compartment, open it and read it is anyone’s guess but my guess is not many. Often the book goes missing and when the next excited buyer purchases the now used car it’s not there. If that is the case my advice is call your local car dealership and order one. That little book is a wealth of information and my belief is everyone, especially new drivers, should be required to read the entire handbook and familiarize themselves with the operation of the vehicle. How many new drivers actually know where the spare tire is located, never mind the jack that you will need to replace the flat tire on the side of the road when it is dark and raining? How about if you have a light bulb out? Before you run down to the local auto parts store and buy one look in the handbook, it will tell you the correct bulb number as well as how to install it. It’s not unusual for us to refer to the owners handbook for the specific operation of a component we may be checking. If you find yourself parked in your car for whatever reason and you are looking for something to read reach in the glove compartment and grab that little book. You will be surprised what you can actually learn about your car and its operation.

Space crunch at local schools [ LWSD from page 1 ]
for portables, based on the amount of land and jurisdictional limits, Reith noted. “We might have room for one or two more, but that would eat up play field space,” Zurfluh explained. Portables also need proper foundations, heating, ventilation and technology set-ups. It’s not as simple as just plopping down an extra portable, said Zurfluh. And portables don’t have restrooms, so children have to walk to the main school building. As well, the Rosa Parks playground has only a small covered area for inclement weather. Kids are outside for recess every day, rain or shine — except when there’s a dangerous storm — because there’s not enough room indoors. “Besides needing more classrooms, we need basic core infrastructure, such as the Commons area where children eat. Right now, we have three lunch shifts,” Zurfluh continued. This fall, Rosa Parks had to
September 24, 2010
www.redmond-reporter.com hold three separate, standingroom-only Curriculum Nights in the Commons, which is also used for assemblies and drama productions. “Scheduling activities in the gym and the library is also a nightmare,” said Zurfluh. Zurfluh has even considered buying booster chairs for the Rosa Parks conference room, to serve as a spot where Kindergarten children can meet for small-group activities. “We have to be creative, make best use of available space,” she said. In addition to Rosa Parks, Albert Einstein and Margaret Mead, other elementaries that are currently over capacity, by at least 80-95 students, include Norman Rockwell, Horace Mann and John Audubon in Redmond and Carl Sandburg, Peter Kirk and Juanita in Kirkland.
A BIT OF A BABY BOOM
Rosa Parks now has six Kindergarten classes, six first-grade classes, four second-grade classes, four third-grade classes, four fourth-grade classes, two fifthgrade classes and three sixthgrade classes. “Even in a tough economic climate, housing on the Ridge is
very stable,” said Zurfluh. “A lot of parents said they bought in this area because of the quality of the schools. Younger siblings will be coming to us, too.” Reith added, “The Lake Washington School District also tracks King County birth rates which are going up. There are larger Kindergarten classes all around Redmond.”
ELEMENTARY STRATEGIES
Reith reviewed short-term strategies to ease overcrowding at elementary schools. Converting specialized classrooms into regular classrooms is one that’s already being used at some buildings. The LWSD might also eliminate full-day Kindergarten programs or set new boundaries to balance enrollments. The district could also bus students from overcrowded schools to others that are less crowded and/or add more portables, up to the state limits. Long-term strategies would be to build one or two more elementary schools. “The next modernization bond would be in February 2014,” said Reith. “In 2006, we added Rachel Carson Elementary to account for population growth on the
Sammamish Plateau. In 2014, we could maybe add one or two more elementaries, in the Redmond Ridge and Einstein areas. Each year, we see new enrollment there.”
FUNDING CONSIDERATIONS
A $265 million bond measure for the LWSD, to provide more space for students, didn’t pass in February 2010. A post-election survey revealed that the recession and concerns about taxes were the reasons. Most people said they supported the school district, “but said it was not the right time to ask for more money,” Reith explained. “So we’re looking at immediate needs and also looking at longterm needs for a 2014 modernization proposal,” she said. At upcoming public input sessions and online, LWSD residents will be able to learn more about possible funding measures that could be put on voters’ ballots in February. LWSD Superintendent Dr. Chip Kimball told the Redmond Reporter, “We’re in a bit of a dilemma in light of the economy. ... At this time, we’re asking them to contemplate the urgent areas. If we don’t solve problems well, in the long term, we don’t have core
facilities. That will result in multiple lunch periods, crowded halls and bathrooms and compromised student safety.” Kimball stated, “Our priorities are management and supervision of students, safety, making the environment conducive to learning — and also the concern that enriched learning may be sacrificed. If we’re looking at urgent needs, safety and the learning environment are tops.” At the public input sessions, Kimball said, “We’ll have a number of stations they can go to, to get information. We’re making the timing flexible. They can drop in, get what they need. We want to be responsive to people’s schedules. They can spend 15 minutes, 30 minutes or go online to get the information. The intention is for community members to ask questions in a personalized way and offer their ideas.”
REPORTER FOLLOW-UP
In Part 2 of this series about the LWSD, look for information on enrollment trends at the junior high/middle school and high school levels, how growth may impact those students in the future and more information about the funding measures that could be put on voters’ ballots.

Forums will help formulate your November vote
T
he Nov. 2 General Election is just around the corner and there are upcoming opportunities to hear the candidates state their case. There are three local candidate forums coming up that will help you decide who will be best fit to help guide our state during these uncertain economic times. Both the 45th and 48th legislative districts include Redmond — and there are candidate forums for both districts on the horizon. • A 45th legislative district candidates forum will be held at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 28 at Holy Spirit Lutheran Church, 10021 NE 124th St. in Kirkland. All six candidates will be on hand. Candidates will be asked to answer questions during three different stages. The first will include questions prepared by the Advocacy Team of Holy Spirit Lutheran Church, the group responsible for organizing the forum. The second stage will be a lightning round where candidates will be asked to answer 10 “yes or no” questions. The third stage will include questions written on note cards by audience members, as read by the moderator. Questions will apply to the state budget, eduction, health care, the environment, housing and other topics. • A 45th legislative district candidates forum will be held from 7-9 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 12 in the Laura Ingalls Wilder Elementary School commons, 22130 NE 133rd St. in Woodinville. Sen. Eric Oemig (D) and his opponent Andy Hill (R), Reps. Roger Goodman (D) and Larry Springer (D) and their opponents Kevin Haistings (R) and Mark Isaccs (R) have agreed to attend. The forum will be moderated by Linda Hanson, who is a former Washington State PTSA president, executive committee member of the Network for Excellence in Washington Schools, member of the Children’s Campaign Fund board of directors and a long-time education reform advocate.
The event is free and open to the public. • The Bellevue Downtown Association (BDA), in partnership with Sound Publishing, Inc., will play host to a candidates forum for the 48th legislative district from 8:30-9:30 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 13 at Bellevue City Hall, 450 110th Ave NE, in downtown Bellevue. The forum will feature the six candidates vying for the State Senate and the House of Representatives in the 48th District. The State Senator race pits Gregg Bennett (R) against incumbent Sen. Rodney Tom (D). Rep. Ross Hunter (D) will face off against Diane Tebelius in the State Representative Pos. 1 race and Philip Wilson (R) goes up against Rep. Deb Eddy in the State Representative Pos. 2 race. Questions will explore many issues facing lawmakers in Olympia, including economic recovery, the budget deficit and spending policies, education reform, transportation and health care funding, as well as the candidates’views on the ballot initiatives.
Redmond Reporter editor Bill Christianson, Bellevue Reporter editor Craig Groshart and Kirkland Reporter editor Carrie Wood will pose questions and lead the discussion. Audience questions will be taken in each session. Admission to the forum is free and open to the public. Seating is limited, and the BDA requests advance registration online at www.bellevuedowntown.org, or by phone at (425) 453-1223. While a voters’ pamphlet is helpful, these forums allow voters to see and hear what each of these candidates plan to do if elected and how they stand on the issues that will help shape our future. Candidate forums are a good way to formulate decisions about who you want — and don’t want — in office. The opportunity to meet candidates face-to-face and see how sincere they are when they talk about the issues is important in helping you decide when it comes time to vote. These forums in September and October will be crucial when you vote in November.

In his mailings, Sen. Rodney Tom likes to talk about how he has fought against raising taxes. What he doesn’t like to talk about is his role in making higher taxes both easier and necessary. He voted to repeal I-960 (Senate Bill 6843), thus making it easier for the Legislature to raise our taxes, and then, as one of two original sponsors of the budget bill (Senate Bill 6444) and as a member of the Ways and Means committee, he helped create a budget that required higher taxes to fund it. His vote against the final budget his committee produced (which he proudly trumpets in his mailings) shows that he is either ineffective or duplicitous. Either way, he needs to be replaced. David Chicks, Redmond
If elected, Hill will tackle real issues Why do career politicians think that the voters buy negative advertising?
Recently I saw a TV spot that attacked Andy Hill for being a “politician” that has a hidden agenda that can’t be trusted. Andy Hill is a first-time candidate for State Senate in the 45th district. He doesn’t hide his agenda. He’s all about creating jobs, getting the spending under control and fixing our schools. I have known Andy for more than 20 years and can certainly trust him, as a father of three, a recent cancer survivor, and a person that left the business world to volunteer in the classrooms and the athletic fields in our community. His opponent, Eric Oemig, is a member of the State Senate who presided over the rapid decline of our state’s fortunes, leaving us much, much worse off than four years ago. Perhaps this is why Oemig feels that he must attack instead of talk about the issues. How about a side-by-side comparison in your paper of both of them. Even exposure to his voting record — like when he was the only legislator who voted against honoring the soldiers who died in Desert Storm. Or the fact that Oemig
walks out during a flag salute. We need serious change. Not spending and growing government in these economic times. Let’s push towards the real issues. Dave Fester, Redmond
I know that Kevin will be a strong voice for us in Olympia, and I encourage you to join me in voting for Kevin Haistings, State Representative in the 45th District. Stefanie Estes, Sammamish
Haistings will provide Bennett has a strong voice needed experience As my two children grow up and go through the Lake Washington School District in Sammamish, I get more troubled by the day. In junior high, everything is done on computers, textbooks are now obsolete and Internet programs grade homework. The buses are overcrowded and the district is now considering future plans for double shifts at the high school. I met Kevin Haistings one day while he was out doorbelling in my neighborhood. Not only was he friendly and willing to listen to my concerns, he also shared my frustrations with the school system. Kevin believes that the legislature needs to look into vouchers, tax credits, and charter schools, which I am inclined to agree with.
In the past few terms, Washington state’s leadership has shown a lack of fiscal responsibility. We need new energy and talent in the legislative system that isn’t embedded in partisan politics. Gregg Bennett is not a career politician; he is an upstanding member of the community who has made a living helping businesses become more profitable by remaining keenly focused on fiscal responsibility. It is experience that our state desperately needs. I am confident that Gregg Bennett is the leader that will create a better Washington state. I strongly urge you to support him for state Senator in the 48th district this November. Eddie Poplawski, Bellevue

New business provides safe substitute for tanning MARY STEVENS DECKER mdecker@redmond-reporter.com
We wish we all could be California girls — or at least look like them. Yet, as documented by The Skin Cancer Foundation (www.skincancer.org), tanning can lead to premature aging of the skin or skin cancer. Air Beauty Bar, a new business at Redmond Town Center, offers a safe alternative to sunbathing or tanning beds, which are also linked to skin damage or disease. Clients at Air Beauty Bar can obtain an “airbrushed” glow as technicians carefully apply a sunless tanning product that is 100 percent certified organic, made from sugar cane and approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Air Beauty Bar owner Heather Walsh has been a local realtor for 15 years but decided to launch her new career after what she called “a life-changing experience.” Walsh explained, “I grew up in California, was always out in the sun, moved here in high school and still wanted to have that glow, so I went to tanning beds.” One day, while meeting friends at Carillon Point in Kirkland, Walsh decided to pop into her dermatologist’s office. She asked the doctor to take a look at “a scab that kept coming back.” She was shocked to learn it was no ordinary scab. Both of her parents were diagnosed with skin

Heather Walsh has opened Air Beauty Bar at Redmond Town Center. The shop offers a safe alternative to sunbathing or tanning beds, a sunless “airbrushed” tan that is carefully applied by a trained technician. MARY STEVENS DECKER, Redmond Reporter cancers, too. That’s when Walsh began researching the pros and cons of various tanning systems. Although spray-on or “mistic” tans have been around for a while, the usual application method is unhealthy and inconvenient in several ways, Walsh noted. “With mistic tans, in a box, you are expected to hold your breath. The box is very enclosed, full of fumes which are very harmful to soft tissues like the inside of your nose,” said Walsh. “If you get nose plugs, then you have a weird line under your nose. They also don’t tell you that your knees, elbows and all the drier areas of your skin will absorb color faster, so the tan will be uneven or blotchy.” At Air Beauty Bar, an initial consultation takes about 30 min-
utes, during which Walsh or one of her technicians will analyze a client’s skin tone and condition and recommend a custom-blended solution for their needs. A precision wand, directed by a trained technician, controls the flow of the solution, which can be odorless or infused with a fragrance of the client’s choice. A reverse fan system ensures that clients or technicians aren’t inhaling the solution. A single airbrushed tan at Air Beauty Bar costs $38. There are also package deals based on the number of visits, as well as a Sunday morning discount — $17 from 11 a.m.-1 p.m. on a first-come, first-serve basis. Walsh said clients can return for free touch-ups within two days of application. “I want everyone to have complete satisfaction,” she remarked.

In addition to airbrushed tanning, Air Beauty Bar sells temporary, airbrushed tattoos that fade away or can be removed with rubbing alcohol. Air Beauty Bar client Cristiana Thillmann said she discovered the shop through a Girls’ Night event and had positive experiences with both the airbrushed tanning and temporary tattoos. “I tried airbrush tanning because I was looking to find a healthy alternative to UV tanning,” Thillmann commented. “Also, I feel that airbrush tanning is more controlled coverage than a typical ‘spray tan’ ... The product they use is also organic and smells nice, which are huge selling points for me. ... My experience was very personalized and felt more like a salon than a tanning service.” Customer Kim Kurtz concurred, “It is a healthier way to tan. It is safe and fast, plus looks great. Past experiences, with other spray tans, I looked a tad bit orange and felt gross after getting the spray tan.” Kurtz described the staff at Air Beauty Bar as “friendly and (with) reasonable prices for the exceptional service.” Air Beauty Bar is located upstairs at Redmond Town Center, 16492 NE 74th St., Suite B235.

DigiPen to offer new continuing education programs MARY STEVENS DECKER mdecker@redmond-reporter.com
This fall, the Redmond-based, world-renowned DigiPen Institute of Technology is kicking off a series of continuing education programs to help professionals enhance their skill sets and/or provide anyone — with a high school diploma or above — with introductions to video game programming and art/ animation for video games. Registration for the continuing education courses is open until Friday, Oct. 1, with a $35 registration fee. The continuing education classes will run for 10 weeks, Oct. 11-Dec. 17, on weeknight evenings from 6-9 p.m. at DigiPen’s new, comprehensive campus, 9931 Willows Rd. in Redmond. One of the continuing education courses will also be available online. Continuing education course offerings ($595 each) include “Introduction to 3D Animation,” Wednesdays at DigiPen; “Introduction to 2D Game Programming” Tuesdays at DigiPen; “Introduction to 3D Game Programming,” Thursdays at DigiPen; and “Introduction to 3D Game Programming,” online on Wednesdays. Online classes are taught using synchronous Web conferencing technology. Online students are required to have broadband access and may be required to have software not provided by DigiPen. Admission to DigiPen’s continuing education programs is open to anyone with a high school diploma or General Education Develop-
DigiPen Institute of Technology, 9931 Willows Rd. in Redmond, is launching a series of continuing education programs this fall. The courses in game programming and animation are open to anyone with a high school diploma or above. Professionals can also earn Continuing Education Units while enhancing their skill sets. COURTESY PHOTO ment certificate (GED). DigiPen is also authorized by the Washington Workface Training Board to grant students Continuing Education Units (CEU) for every 10 hours of instruction. Since most of DigiPen’s continuing education courses are 30 hours, students are eligible to receive 3 CEU credits for each course. For people already working in the video game industry or any other industry, the opportunity to take “a 10-week course with professional credit, taken after the work day, is almost like a healthy substitute for Happy Hour,” noted Tarsi Hall, communications manager at DigiPen. “Maybe you’re at Microsoft or maybe you got laid off from a job
and want to develop skills for various game platforms. Employers are looking for these skills now,” said Hall. “It’s a growing field, definitely, and it’s also a minimal time and financial commitment, not like committing to getting a second Master’s degree. A lot of people don’t have the capital to do that. Maybe in just 10 weeks, learning to make an iPhone game, you can go back to your employer with an idea to make more revenue.” Hall said DigiPen ran a pilot version of a continuing education program about two years and saw a lot of interest in this concept. “We’re launching this now, to all of the public with a high school diploma or above,” said Hall. “You
don’t have to have a Bachelor’s degree. It could be someone who graduated from Redmond High School recently or 10 years ago, somebody who maybe has been working as a Web developer but doesn’t have a degree. We don’t want to close that person out, based on their credentials. We’re helping people to grow a new skill and hoping to feed the local economy.” Heidi Munoz, who oversees the K-12 education programs at DigiPen, is also spearheading these continuing education programs for adults. “This is tailored toward people who never learned animation, programming or the language of drawing,” said Munoz. “It could be a designer who wants programming knowledge or a programmer who needs to learn art. They can get a taste of both worlds in a college environment, on-site and in their back yard.” Through the K-12 and continuing education programs at DigiPen, said Munoz, “We’re bringing in people of all ages and all levels of academics. DigiPen’s mission is not to get just the kids who are already devoted to science or art but also trying to educate kids and adults in general, whether or not they intend to attend DigiPen (full-time).” To register for the continuing education courses at DigiPen Institute of Technology, visit https:// www.digipen.edu/prospectivestudents/academics/continuingeducation/.

Redmond couple leads vintage car tour

Members of Evergreen A’s Model ‘A’ Club celebrated International Model ‘A’ Ford Day on Saturday, Sept. 18. Redmond residents George and Ila Sage led the vintage auto tour in their 1929 Roadster Model ‘A’ pickup. Starting in Issaquah, the group headed out toward North Bend, chugging along on scenic old roads as well as “flooring it” at 45 mph on I-90 and making it all the way to the top of Snoqualmie Pass. After lunch at the Raging River Cafe in Fall City, the group drove one of the last brick-paved roads in Washington, originally paved in 1913 and repaired by King County in 1989 in conjunction with the 100th anniversary of Washington’s statehood. The Model ‘A’ Ford Day activities gave participants chances to show off their cars and share memories of the Red-
mond area from long ago. For example, the Sages came to Redmond in 1967 and their four children graduated from Redmond High School (RHS), where their grandson Travis Sage is now a senior and member of the football team. “We owned an operated a family electronic manufacturing business, Sage Electronics, Inc. in Redmond for 25 years and employed many RHS students as well as many other locals,” said George. “We are now retired — sold the business in 2000 — Ila is a massage therapist and still sees clients occasionally and I have new business/hobby called Owl Auto Electrics where I dabble in restoring and repairing the electrical parts. I graduated from the UW (University of Washington) in 1959, BSEE (Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering) and hold a professional engineer’s license in Washington state.”

HIGH SCORES FOR THE 60-PLUS SET Recent research seems to confirm the maxim “with age comes wisdom.” The study rated participants in three age groups (25-40, 41-59, and 60 and over) on their “ability to use intelligence for the social good.” Each was presented with a scenario and asked to reflect on it. Their answers were rated based on wellaccepted characteristics of wisdom: being able to see the point of view of each side of the dispute, realizing that situations rarely stay static, being able to see multiple ways in which the conflict could unfold, recognizing the limits of their own knowledge, and showing a willingness to search for conflict resolution and compromise. Study participants aged 60 and over displayed the highest wisdom scores. PETERS CREEK RETIREMENT/ASSISTED LIVING is pleased to bring you interesting and informative topics regarding seniors.

Second-half surge lifts Overlake past Eagles
we’ve been down 1-0 and come back to score 3-4 goals. We’re definitely a second-half team.” Goodspeed praised her team’s effort in fighting back for an important league victory, citing Phillips’ patience in the attack and the amazing speed of freshman forward Jenay Brown as key components to the win. Brown simply out-hustled a defender and took a ball about 20 yards for a score late in the game to seal the Owls’ win. “We’ve had speedy players before, but she might be one of the fastest we’ve had,” Goodspeed commented. “That was just a full-on, 100 percent sprint for a breakaway. (Speed) is a nice weapon to have.”
TIM WATANABE twatanabe@redmond-reporter.com
It was a tale of two halves for The Overlake School girls’ soccer team against Cedar Park Christian as the two teams squared off in an Emerald City League matchup at the Overlake School on Tuesday afternoon, with the Owls prevailing 4-2. Trailing 1-0 at halftime, the Owls’ senior midfielder Emily Kelly led a second-half charge with three goals, including the eventual gamewinner. “She really (stepped up),” head coach Sally Goodspeed said of Kelly. “She was the one talking at halftime ... She really got vocal and demanding of the ball in those key situations, and everybody jumped on her back.”

The hard-luck Owls recorded nine shots on goal in the first half with nothing to show for their efforts, while Cedar Park senior captain Nicolette Clark fired a perfect 20-yard shot into the top left corner past goalie Zoe Pinczower, in the 14th minute, to give the Eagles the early lead. In what has been a recurring theme for the Owls this season — they scored four unanswered goals in the second half of their 4-1 win against Vashon Island back on Sept. 11— they came out with a renewed energy after the halftime break.

Photo courtesy of Doug Phillips Kelly finally got Overlake on the board with a score to the right side, assisted by sophomore midfielder Quinn Phillips, tying the game. Less than a minute later, Phillips drew a foul in the goal box, setting up a crucial penalty kick that was given to Kelly, who put it in. After Cedar Park’s Clark coun-
tered with her second goal of the game from the left wing, Kelly once again came through with a perfect shot just under the crossbar, out of the reach of Cedar Park goalkeeper Kari Johnson. “It felt really good,” Kelly said of her offensive spark in the second half. “In about all of our games
Hot Mustangs take on Eastlake tonight REPORTER STAFF
Tonight’s Redmond-Eastlake 4A Kingco Crest Division opener features two teams on a roll. Redmond plays at Eastlake with kickoff at 7 p.m. The Mustangs put together a monster of a second half in a 20-6 win over Woodinville last Friday night in at Redmond High School. Redmond, winners of two

macher had a busy night against the Falcons, kicking both of the Mustangs’ extra points as well as field goals of 33 and 32 yards. The Falcons’ lone score was late in the fourth quarter, a 71-yard touchdown run by Caleb Hamilton. The Mustangs were able to cut down on the penalties that have plagued them so far this season, as they had just nine for a total of 76 yards, compared to Woodinville’s 15 for 176 yards.

Against Woodinville, Michael Conforto opened up the scoring early in the third quarter with a 22-yard run, and later launched a 67-yard bomb to Cody Klepinger in the fourth quarter to put the game out of reach.

Once again, the Owls are off to a great start at 4-1-0 in league play, with this latest victory over Cedar Park calming the team’s nerves considerably. “Cedar Park was a team that I worried about, and for good reason,” Goodspeed said. “They’re strong and returned a lot of players from last year’s talented team. They had us down and then when we got up, tied it really quickly.” Added Kelly, “Cedar Park is definitely one of the harder teams we’ll play, judging by their past games and past years, so it felt really good to win this one. We knew it was going to be hard.”

The Bear Creek School boys' soccer team kept their perfect record intact with a 3-0 road shutout of Bellevue Christian last Saturday. Mark Phillips kept up his torrid scoring pace with his fifth goal of the season in the 21st minute to open up the scoring, followed by Tom Postings in the 49th minute and Lucas Peterson, unassisted, in the 73rd minute. Nima Abtahi assisted both Phillips' and Postings' goals, with Jamie Clough earning the shutout. With the win, Bear Creek improved to 2-0-0 in league play and stands at 5-0-0 overall.

ity of Redmond and unincorporated King County residents have just six days left to take advantage of an amnesty period for unlicensed pets before they face a no-tolerance fine. As part of the new Regional Animal Services model for animal control in King County, residents of 27 contracted cities, including Redmond, were given a 90day amnesty period to license their pets without facing a fine. The amnesty period expires at the end of the day on
Sept. 30, and starting Friday, Oct. 1, residents who have unlicensed cats or dogs face a fine of $125 for spayed or neutered pets, and up to $250 for an unaltered pet. Under the new model that took effect July 1, the cost for pet licenses for spayed or neutered animals remained unchanged at $30, and the price for unaltered pets was reduced to $60 (previously $90). “The amnesty period is a great opportunity for residents to comply with the law, protect their pets with a
license, and avoid a potential fine,” said Regional Animal Services Manager Ken Nakatsu. “After October 1, we have to comply with the code adopted by King County and 27 contracting cities and issue a fine if you are caught without a pet license. Now is the time to prevent that risk and gain the benefits of a pet license.” Residents can purchase pet licenses in person at more than 100 locations in King County, including Redmond City Hall, many QFC grocery stores, and on-
line. Visit www.kingcounty. gov/pets for a list of sales locations or to purchase or renew a license online. Pet licenses are renewed annually and are good for one year from the date of purchase. Under the new Regional Animal Services model, discounts are available for disabled and senior residents, as well as for those with juvenile pets up to six months old. All dogs and cats over eight weeks of age in unincorporated King County and contracting cities must be licensed.

ave you considered the differences between cats and kittens? Many available adult cats are barely out of kittenhood themselves. They still have plenty of spunk and energy — they’re just a bit more mature. That’s a good thing. Here are 10 reasons why you may want to adopt an adult cat. What you see is what you get. Adult cats already know who they are. Kittens are undeniably cute, but you never know what the future holds, how large they may get, what their personality will ultimately be, etc. An adorable little

kitten will be an adult in the blink of an eye. Adult cats aren’t as “chewsy.” Kittens have a tendency to chew things, lots of things. Whether teething or just exploring bits of the world around them, kittens chew on shoes, the corners of books, ear lobes and fingers, carpet tassels, electrical cords, drapery strings, plants, and much, much more. Most adult cats don’t chew inappropriately at all. If you have an older cat in your home and are looking for a friend for him or her, another adult cat may be the best choice. Kittens can be too playful and may upset your cat instead of providing companionship. A kitten may cause

your resident cat to be more annoyed than amused. After a long day at the office, you may just want to come home and curl up with your furry friend--but most kittens prefer an action packed evening — lots of touseling, frolicking, and plenty of running and jumping. An adult cat will greet you at the door and be more than happy to curl up and watch your favorite shows on TV. They’ve already learned about the unconditional love thing. Adult cats may sleep at the foot of your bed, under the bed or in a cozy spot somewhere else in the house, while a kitten will most likely run around all night, doing anything possible to wake you up for more games. Adult cats are generally happy to sleep when you do and don’t try to attack your toes through the blankets in the middle of the night. Adult cats won’t be climbing up your leg or your curtains, they won’t be swinging from your chandeliers, knocking down knick knacks or just running full speed ahead for no good reason. Adult cats are usually a better choice for families with small children. Kittens often play rough and are constantly underfoot. They’re sharp--they can’t help it, but kittens are all teeth and claws. Generally speaking, adult cats are more mellow, and often more patient with young children. The experience should be a good one for both the cat and the child. Ask to meet the shelter’s

best “kid cats.” Adult cats require less attention and supervision. They’re quiet companions. They have well-developed manners, use the litter box and the scratching post without constant reminders. Many adult cats end up in shelters due to no fault of their own. Separated from their loved ones, surrounded by other cats, confined, confused, and sometimes frightened, many are emotionally devastated by their misfortune. Sadly, most people gravitate toward the cute, bouncy, big-eyed kittens. Older cats sit by and watch, as one loving family after another passes them over for a cute kitten. Adopting an adult cat is a way to say to a deserving animal “I believe in you.” For the abandoned, forgotten, and heartbroken adult cats, you just might be their last chance to have the love and warmth of a home where they can live out their years in comfort. When properly cared for, cats often live well into their late teens or longer. Typically, they will remain active and even playful throughout most of their lives. Once a cat adjusts to a new home where they can feel safe and secure again, they’ll offer years of faithful companionship and unconditional love.

NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d b u y e r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood. When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle. The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a c o r d by v i s u a l i z i n g a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet. Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.
