City picks light rail options BY CELINA KAREIVA BELLEVUE REPORTER
The Bellevue City Council has voted for its preferred cost savings options on the future East Link alignment. The 6-0 vote could save the city up to $53 million. Monday’s decision will leave the city short of its $60 million goal, though as residents pointed out at a public hearing last week, city funding would be the last money into the project. After emotional testimony from residents heavily rep-
resenting the Surrey Downs and Enatai neighborhoods, the council chose a set of options that they hoped would preserve quality of life, rather than saving Bellevue the most money. “Our number one priority has been to protect our neighborhoods,” said Mayor Conrad Lee. “And we accomplished that tonight.” Though the decision will still need to be finalized by Sound Transit at a meeting Thursday afternoon (after the Reporter’s deadline), council’s vote approved the following:
The City Council opted for an elevated downtown station instead of one underground. SEE LIGHT RAIL, 11

William Shaw, a fourth generation Eastsider, has been named Regional Publisher of the Bellevue Reporter, Mercer Island Reporter, the Issaquah & Sammamish Reporter and the Snoqualmie Valley Record. Shaw’s longtime professional focus has been as a print media advertising consultant in the local retail, major, national and real estate categories. Shaw started in 1998 as an advertising executive with the former Journal-American. From 2002 William Shaw to 2006 he was Advertising Sales and Special Projects Manager for Horvitz Newspapers (the former Eastside Journal and later King County Journal) and for Sound Publishing, where in 2007, he was designated as Marketing Director for the newly formed Reporter Newspaper Group division of Sound Publishing, including the then newly established Bellevue Reporter. In 2008, he was made Publisher of the weekly Snoqualmie Valley Record, overseeing the operations of the community newspaper, which will be observing its 100th anniversary this fall. In 2012, Shaw also was made Publisher of the Issaquah & Sammamish Reporter. "Shaw is a great community builder that brings a high level of experience and proven performance to the group publishing role," said Josh O'Connor, Vice President of East Sound Newspaper Operations.

Seattle neighborhood wants answers in fatal shooting by Bellevue SWAT team BY CELINA KAREIVA BELLEVUE REPORTER
Forty-third Avenue South, near South Hudson Street in Seattle's Columbia City area is a quiet, dead end road. Kids play in one another’s backyard and residents regularly swap emails about neighborhood news. So when John Russell awoke on the morning of March 22, around 5 a.m. to gunshots, his first thought was to hit the ground, then call 9-1-1. That was before Russell, who’s lived on the block for 10 years, knew what was unfolding
outside his bedroom window. Russell would later learn that Bellevue SWAT was serving a warrant for neighbor and robbery suspect, Russell Smith, at the home of his brother, Rydell Smith. Upon arriving, police found Russell Smith in his gold Mercedes. According to a statement released by the BPD, Smith reversed his car into a Ford pick-up truck parked behind him. When he switched gears, police say they feared he was going to run them over, and opened fire. Smith later died at Harborview Medi-

Cathy Habib and Jan King have been named Bellevue’s volunteers of the year for providing countless hours serving the Bellevue community. The city presents the award each year in conjunction with National Volunteer Week, which this year is April 21-27. Nominated by the Bellevue Schools Foundation, Habib has a long history of volunteering within the community. As a foundation board member and grantmaking chair, Habib pushed the organization to increase its strategic investments in order to provide more benefits across elementary, middle and high schools. “Cathy is smart, analytical, thoughtful, organized, energetic and generous – everything nonprofits in our community need and more,” said Bellevue Schools Foundation Executive Director Roxanne Kröon Shepherd.
Habib also is involved with a number of other organizations including Eastside Pathways, where she has been an integral team member from the beginning and is now leading the Kindergarten Readiness Collaborative toward its goal of decreasing by half the number of kids arriving at kindergarten unprepared by 2016. Nominated by Bellevue Presbyterian Church, Jan King was cited for inspiring many with her efforts. For the last seven years, she has coordinated Service Day, an August event that brings more than 1,000 volunteers into Bellevue elementary schools to help get the schools ready for students on the first day of school. King helps recruit volunteers and coordinates details for the event. King also works with The Sophia Way to assist homeless women in the community. “Jan has moved beyond

Three seek to lead state teachers union By Jerry Cornfield Special to the Reporter
Washington's powerful union of public school teachers will elect a new state president today when representatives from around the state cast their ballots today in Bellevue. Seeking the job are Everett Education Association president Kim Mead, Oak Harbor Education Association president Peter Szalai and Mike Ragan, the WEA vice president. The winner will succeed Mary Lindquist as head of the 82,000-member Washington Education Association. The winner will be thrust into an intensifying debate among state lawmakers on the
amount of reform and revenue required to improve the performance of students. WEA is pressing lawmakers to fully fund education in accordance with a Supreme Court decision last year. But groups like Stand for Children are pushing back, saying that decision is as much about money as it is about making reforms that will improve the quality of teaching and performance of students in schools. Roughly 1,200 delegates, chosen by members of the locals, will vote. If none of the three candidates captures at least 50 percent of the vote, there will be a run-off between the top two vote-getters.

City Council’s light rail vote on right track
T
he Bellevue City Council got things right on light rail Monday night when it approved plans for the train’s path into downtown. The decision won’t please everyone, given the complexity and costs involved, but the plan solves a number of issues. Enatai residents got what they wanted and needed when the council voted to put the trains in a trench along Bellevue Way Southeast. That should cut the noise level and hide the ugliness of train tracks. The council also approved elevating a section of the road on 112th over the tracks so trains can shift from the east side of the street to the west without impacting traffic. A noise wall also is planned along this part of the route to help protect the Surrey Downs neighborhood. The downtown light rail station will be elevated, rather than underground. The latter would be better, but would cost millions more. The council was right to eke out savings where it could. However, Sound Transit must do its part and design the elevated station to keep passengers dry while they wait for the train. If they haven’t noticed, we get a lot of wet and windy days around here. The Sound Transit board was expected to make its proposal Thursday night, which was after the Reporter’s deadline. We trust it, too, will sign off on the deal to get the project moving towards its now 2023 completion.
The danger of blame
I
t didn’t take long after the Boston Marathon attack for some people to blame Muslims. But blaming Muslims for the attack at the Boston Marathon makes no more sense than blaming Christians for the bombings and killings by white supremists. Radicals exist in every movement and religion. Fortunately, they represent a minuscule number. All right-thinking people – of every faith – mourn this tragedy. – Craig Groshart, Bellevue Reporter

Senate’s education budget falls short
B
ellevue is home to one of the top school districts in America. From personal experience I can tell you this is no accident. The key to our success is that parents, educators, and local leaders are all committed to providing the support our students need to succeed. This includes adapting to the needs of our rapidly changing global economy. More than one-third of our students speak a first language other than English, and Washington state has the third highest percentage of jobs in science, technology, and engineering. So this commitment means funding for the language programs, computers, science labs, and coursework our students need to thrive Jeff Hansen in today’s world. Our community is all-in for a worldclass education system. We need the same level of commitment from our legislators. The Supreme Court has ruled that we are failing our constitutional responsibility to fund public schools. While the governor and House of Representatives have risen to the challenge with their budgets, the Senate’s budget – led by Eastside Sens. Andy Hill and Rodney Tom – falls short. The reality is that more than half their “new” funding comes from cutting one part of the education budget and transferring it to another. For instance, they raid a fund for

building schools to fund operating costs. This may work for accountants, but it doesn’t help students. With their proposal we will have the fourth most crowded classrooms in the nation. Even worse is the proposal to cut funding for community services that help our students arrive to school ready to learn. With the Senate budget more than 35,000 families would lose affordable housing and 4,000 slots for childcare would be eliminated. Kids that are hungry, sick, or homeless simply can’t learn. The Senate’s budget is just as notable for what it doesn’t do: end tax breaks for special interests. There are 640 tax breaks on the books. The Senate fails to end a single one and creates a dozen more. The Senate budget is the wrong direction for our kids and our classrooms. Budgets are about choices, and we must choose to fund education instead of protecting outdated tax loopholes. This choice reflects both our values as a state and the reality of our budget. Parents, kids, and local leaders stand united in support of providing our kids the world-class education they deserve. The only question is if our senators will join us. Jeff Hansen has served as a trustee and past president of the Bellevue Schools Foundation, and as a partner with Social Venture Partners and current Chair of their K-12 Grant Committee. He lives in Bellevue.

Parenting Lifeline
Teens need help battling depression; what adults can do
L
ast month I shared with you some of the drug trends in our local neighborhoods. As alarming as drug and alcohol use may be, there are other issues plaguing our kids. Chief among them are stress and depression. Stress comes from a lifestyle of always being connected, problems at school, over achieving expectations from parents, and a rigorous academic load. The important thing is for kids to learn ways to de-stress with music, exercise and down time. Depression is also a major issue among kids today and likely at the root of the increases in teen suicides seen in the area over the past year. In the Healthy Youth Survey, taken by students in all public Patti Skeltonschools across the state, 23 percent of local McGougan 8th, 10th and 12th graders have felt depressed in the past year. It’s most alarming that 14 percent seriously contemplated suicide. The best thing for kids who are depressed is professional help. Adolescence is a time when the brain is growing and changing, and it’s often the time that mental health issues begin to emerge. One in every five young people suffers from mental health issues at any given time. Unfortunately an estimated two-thirds of them are not receiving the help they need. Many kids are also dealing with being bullied, sometimes every day. Bullying is not a new problem, but with the internet, we’re seeing it take different forms and escalate to the point that the young people who have been bullied commit suicide, as happened just recently with an Issaquah teen. Sometimes the bullying takes the form of
Bellevue Christian School admits students of any race, color, national or ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national or ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies, scholarship and loan programs, and athletic and other school-administered programs.
social isolation, other times it may be physical or verbal. And sometimes it occurs in texts or via social media sites. Kids who are bullied don’t enjoy school, and many suffer with the effects of bullying well into adulthood. Parents should check in with their children and ask specifically about bullying. Do they know at least one adult at their school they could talk to if they or a friend was being bullied? If not, help them consider who that might be. Also advise children to avoid bullies and try to stick with a friend at recess, on the bus, or when walking home. And encourage them to stick up for others who are being bullied. Another problem many of our young people are dealing with is teen dating violence. In a recent survey nearly one in 10 teens reported they had been physically abused by a romantic partner in the past 12 months. In another survey, more than 80 percent reported emotional abuse. And one in four reported being threatened or harassed online or using texts. Youth Eastside Services offers the only area resource for teen dating violence. In addition to specialized individual counseling, there is a support group and a peer prevention/education program to help teens recognize and avoid violent or controlling relationships. Believe it or not, some of our young people don’t know that love shouldn’t hurt. These issues are happening in our neighborhoods to our kids. The best thing you can do as an adult is to engage with kids. Building relationships will help you know what’s going on in your child’s life and enable you to spot early signs of problems—like ongoing sadness, changes in eating or sleeping patterns, or a loss of interest in activities or school. There is no shame in asking for help. People can thrive if they are given the right tools and support—even those who have suffered emotional wounds or face mental health challenges. And when youth confront and successfully deal with these problems, the entire community benefits by reductions in juvenile crime, family violence, substance abuse and more—today and as they grow to be adults.
Reporter’s Notebook
Music to drive to
I
t's about that time of the year when I am gearing up for long road trips. To Bellingham. To the Gorge in George. To my beach place near Gig Harbor. To my brother's place in San Diego. Which means I need to find some good summer tunes for the road. Of course I've got the classics: Loggins and Messina's "Full Sail." Hall and Oates' "Abandoned Luncheonette." Then I've got the standards: anything by the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Sublime, Rooney, The Kooks – you know, summer stuff. But I'm always looking for something new. This week marked an awesome week Keegan Prosser in music – especially in regard to tunes perfect for a sunny afternoon. And that makes this girl really happy. For the past few days, my headphones have been my best friend. Because not only have I spent my days listening to new jams (between talking to you lovely folks), but I’ve also started to build my NEW road trip playlist. I'll be the first to admit that I've barely scratched the surface when it comes to my summer music discovery – as there are so many more albums coming out in the next few weeks. Even so, I've got some front runners, in the form of three solid albums: Paramore's "Paramore," The Postelles' "…And It Shook Me," and Phoenix's "Entertainment." Do you want upbeat tunes to match the sunny disposition of summer in the Pacific Northwest? I think these will help you get to the beach! Now, what are you listening to?

Find a place at the table
I
’m convinced I should have named my daughter Fern. With the exception of goldfish crackers, she lives off water and air. From day one she has been a picky eater. She claims vegetables are too green, fish is too fishy and healthy things are gross. I’m always looking for new recipes to make everyone in the family happy even if it’s some sort of cheese laden concoction to hide cut vegetables. Every week I bring home a new cookbook Darcy Brixey from the library that covers cooking styles from around the world. Even if I don’t try every recipe in the book, I still love to look through the photos and dream of some day cooking a perfect meal that nobody complains about. While sometimes palatable, my end results never look as good as the photo in the cookbook. I finally realized that even though I’m not a great cook, I still love to read about cooking. I’ve turned to food memoirs to continue nourishing the need for a story that keeps me turning the pages night after night. King County Library System has started a year-long program series surrounding food. The library system recognizes that even if we aren’t stellar cooks, there is always a program to support us.
The programs offered cover table manners (Downton Abbey style), growing and cooking culinary herbs, building an urban pantry, food memoirs, couponing, meal planning and even music inspired by Michael Pollan. Food authors such as Michael Moss (Salt Sugar Fat), John Sundstrom (Lark: Cooking Against The Grain) and others will appear at local libraries. A full calendar of events is available at www.kcls.org/ cooks/. A Place at the Table program series is offered in partnership with King County Library System Foundation, KING FM 98.1, KIRO Radio, KUOW, Starbucks, KCTS, Hopelink and Food Lifeline. To help others in our community who may be in need, KCLS is accepting non-perishable food items that will be distributed to 45 different food banks through December. Watch the schedule for upcoming events at your local libraries. Throughout the year you may learn tips for vegetarian cooking, food literacy, canning, or a program to help you design a dream kitchen. Perfect food may not always come out of that kitchen but make sure there’s room for all your cookbooks. Darcy Brixey is the teen services librarian at the Bellevue Library. She’d like to tell you she loves to read, but it’s an expectation of the job.

Short Takes on the News
Eastside Story
Connecting to a whole new world T
hree years ago, I spent no time thinking about how much fun other people were having. I used the computer to do homework or play 3D Pinball. Pictures were annoying things my dad made my family pose for; they were definitely not a necessary way to preserve everything I did. But around seventh grade, social Fina Short media changed everything. My friends all got Facebook, suddenly leaving me out of the loop. Not to be outdone, I got a Facebook, too. Immediately, I was part of a whole
new world where I could see exactly what everyone else was doing, all the time. A simple scroll down the news feed showed me how popular everyone else was – more likes on their pictures, more friends, more “happy birthdays” on their birthday. There was always something I missed, where everyone else had the best time of their entire lives. Sitting at home over break, I saw that practically everyone I knew was on vacation somewhere tropical and exotic, while the most exciting thing that had happened to me was my cat getting stuck in a tree. Just as I finally caught up, my friends all got smartphones, and subsequently Instagram. So I saved up and bought an iPhone. Now everything I did was documented,
LifeWire to raise funds to combat domestic violence LifeWire (formerly Eastside Domestic Violence Program) will hold its World of Hope Dinner & Auction on Saturday, May 18 at the Meydenbauer Center in Bellevue to raise funds to end domestic violence. The event will feature keynote speaker Maddy Brockert, a LifeWire teen volunteer, and highlight the nonprofit’s prevention efforts to change the attitudes, beliefs, values and behaviors that perpetuate violence for future generations
What’s happening in nearby cities
and a special thrill came from having other people see my pictures. Without openly bragging about it, I could show the world that I was skiing double diamonds in Whistler, simultaneously making them jealous and showing them my ski abilities. I’ve realized that social media is not entirely terrible – Facebook keeps me in touch with friends I would never talk to otherwise. Now if only my friends would stop rubbing their driver’s permits in my face…my maddening late birthday is one thing that will never get with the times. Fina Short, 14, is a freshman at Eastside Preparatory School, is a contributing writer for the Bellevue Reporter. She lives in Medina.
Maddy, a high school student, will talk about how she sought justice for the man who murdered her mother, Susan Brockert. He was sentenced to life, plus 20 years without an opportunity for parole. The event will begin at 5 p.m. with a complimentary wine reception/silent auction. The dinner and live auction will begin at 7 p.m. To register for the event, contact Tiffany Solack at tiffanyms@lifewire.org, 425-562-8840, ext. 249. Tickets are $150 per person. More information is available by contacting Kelly Becker, LifeWire Development Director, at kellyb@lifewire.org or call 425-562-8840, ext. 253. The Meydenbauer Center is located at 11100 NE 6th St.

HasletDavis, a professional dancer, lost her left foot in the terrorist act when she and her husband were standing near where the second bomb went off. She is determined to return to the dance floor and even run in the Boston Marathon next year. She’s been invited to the ABC television show, “Dancing with the Stars,” next week, where she will be introduced to viewers. Mercer Island: Former Seattle Mariner Edgar Martinez helped the Mercer Island Little League teams celebrated opening day Saturday, April 20, by throwing out the first pitch.

Things to do in Bellevue and elsewhere
Peamouth return to Bellevue streams several times a year. COURTESY PHOTO, city of Bellevue
Peamouth fish in streams a sign of spring in Bellevue BY CELINA KAREIVA BELLEVUE REPORTER
Peamouth's arrival in Bellevue streams from Lake Washington, are as much a sign of spring as Groundhog Day. Up to a foot in length, and sporting red and yellow streaks, their narrow bodies can be seen undulating through the warm water. “When you get them mid-afternoon and the sun is out, it's pretty impressive,” said Laurie Devereaux of the Bellevue's stream team, who this week trained volunteers to track the minnow's spawning patterns. “It's a bunch of shiny fish, from one side of the stream to the other.” Unlike salmon eggs, which incubate for several months, peamouth typically come through in 48 hours time, plastering the bottom of the stream with cream-colored eggs, which will hatch in seven to nine days. The city began tracking peamouth in 2003 when a concerned resident, whose business sat atop Sturtevant Creek, said she'd spotted the fish struggling upstream. Devereaux followed her down to the site and assured her that the hardy fish, which prefer warm water and lower water levels, were in fact just reproducing. The following year, a volunteer called to say she'd again seen them coming over the fish ladder. “It was the most I'd seen at any one time,” Devereaux recalled. Because the city has only been tracking peamouth for 10 years, data is too limited to fully understand their migration patterns. Devereaux said, for instance, that she hadn't realized the fish made several runs in one year. Until 2005, they'd only asked volunteers to check streams in April.
“That year I got a call from Kelsey Creek Farm. It was a beautiful Mother's Day and suddenly the stream was full of fish,” she said. “Sure enough, it was peamouth.” It's unclear what causes them to spawn in the first place. Lake temperatures and stream flow levels could be a factor. Peamouth are often overshadowed by the salmon that distribute their eggs between the gravel of the same streams, but for Eastside ecosystems, they're just as important. “These survey efforts are improving upon current knowledge about when and where peamouth spawn,” reads a 2011 report by the City of Bellevue. “It is hoped that this information will help our understanding of what triggers peamouth spawning and what can be done to improve their spawning distribution.” With the peamouth come blue heron, wood ducks, river otters and bald eagles. In 2011 improvements to one of two main peamouth watching sites, in Kelsey Creek near the Wilburton Trestle, made passage for the fish easier. Devereax encourages residents, even if they haven't volunteered to collect data, to visit the sites. “They're not a keystone species like salmon, but they are a sign of spring,” she explains. “And they are life in our streams. They're a really big part of our ecosystems.” Volunteer training finished Tuesday, Apr. 23 but readers can still sign up for peamouth alerts at the following site: http:// www.ci.bellevue.wa.us/peamouth.htm.

Staff is seeking public input as part of the update to the city's Land Use Code.

Walkers may choose from a north or south walking route on either day. The walking tours are open to the public, last two and a half hours and include a stop for coffee and conversation. The tours meet at City Hall plaza, outside entrance, 450 110th Ave. NE. The walks will go on rain or shine. Those interested should RSVP to Julie Ellenhorn at 425-452-5372 or at jellenhorn@bellevuewa.gov. More information is available at www.bellevuewa.gov/downtown-livability.htm.

More than 500 volunteers stepped up to serve Bellevue on Saturday, April 20, as the city celebrated it's 22nd year of being being recognized as a Tree City USA by the Arbor Day Foundation. Of those 500 volunteers 125 of them arrived at Lewis Creek Park, where they worked on a variety of environmental restoration projects starting at 9 a.m. Projects included planting trees – and 700 pots of Slough Sedge – throughout the park. In addition to serving as a work party, the Arbor Day festivities included a tree-planting ceremony and a family festival. The ceremony featured speakers Mayor Conrad Lee and Aaron Everett, Washington State Forester of the state Department of Natural Resources, as well as the planting of a Quaking Aspen tree by Alexandra Dysard and Master Naturalist Chuck Nau. DySard, who has worked with the Bellevue Parks for four years and served as the Natural Resources Volunteer Coordinator for this event, said her favorite part of the Arbor Day celebration is working with the volunteers. Following the completion of their projects, volunteers of all ages enjoyed a warm meal donated by the Whole Foods in Bellevue. Susan Livingston, who vol-

Right photo: Alexandra DySard and Chuck Nau plant the Quaking Aspen tree at Lewis Creek Park in honor of Arbor Day. KEEGAN PROSSER, Bellevue Reporter unteered with the Whole Foods team, said the company decided to volunteer because it cares about giving back to the community it serves. Livingston was joined by her daughter Claire, 11, as well as fellow Whole Foods employees Christine Rendak and Bruce Wettin – who served soup and bananas to the muddy work party participants. Other volunteers included employees from Bellevue's Parks and Community Service department and representatives from the Pacific Science Center's Watershed Intern-
ship program; a number of boys and girls scout troops based on the Eastside also participated. Irene Endow brought her daughter, Julia, to Lewis Creek Park along with the rest of her Girl Scout troop. Endow said the mothers of Troop 43999 brought the girls to Lewis Park this weekend as their field trip for the month of April. She said the Arbor Day festivities at Lewis Park seemed like a good way for the girls to get involved and help out the community. In addition to being honored as a Tree City for the 22nd consecutive
year, the Arbor Day Foundation also recognized Bellevue as a city of growth. This honor is bestowed on cities that continue to increase the number of trees they introduce to the environment each year; Bellevue has done just that for the past 20 years. Collectively, volunteers planted 2,000 new trees at 17 different locations across Bellevue in honor of Arbor Day. Keegan Prosser: 425-453-4602 kprosser@bellevuereporter.com

Cost savings amount to $2 million to $4 million. The council also passed an amendment applying $5 million of savings toward pedestrian improvements between the transit center and East Link’s future downtown station. Small engineering tweaks, not expected to impact the alignment, also could save the city anywhere from $9 million to $16 million. After Sound Transit’s Board of Directors makes its selection of cost savings options, the agency is expected to begin property acquisitions.

WIAA amendment set to reshape spring, summer football practice
Seventh-grader gets verbal offer from Vanderbilt football on spring break trip
BY JOSH SUMAN BELLEVUE REPORTER
BY JOSH SUMAN BELLEVUE REPORTER
When Chinook middle schooler Jahlen Jack made the trip across the country from Bellevue to Georgia for spring break, he was hoping to see some old friends, spend time with family and enjoy the southern hospitality he became so accustomed to after living there for much of his childhood. He got all of that, and a little something more. Jack made headlines around the country last week online as word of a verbal scholarship offer from Vanderbilt University and football coach James Franklin made the rounds on the internet. MaxPreps, which specializes in high school sports coverage, and even Sports Illustrated picked up on the story. “I was shocked and excited,” Jack said. “I didn’t see it coming at all, but it was an honor.” The offer from Franklin and the Commodores is nonbinding and unofficial, but nonetheless flattering for an athlete who has yet to walk at his eighth-grade graduation, let alone truly dig into the college recruiting process. Fielding calls from coaches and gauging their interest will not be a completely foreign concept for Jahlen and his mother LaSonia, after elder brother Myles spent the better part of the past two years being wooed by the nation’s elite before signing with UCLA and head coach Jim Mora. While his own stock boomed during his junior and senior seasons at Bellevue, Myles said receiving a college
Jalen Jack and his mother LaSonia were excited to receive a verbal scholarship offer, but both know it is the first step in a long recruiting process. JOSH SUMAN, Bellevue Reporter offer wasn’t on the radar during his middle school days. “That would have been a dream come true for me to get offered by a school,” Myles said. “It’s crazy.” He added that while Jahlen has a slighter frame (Myles is listed at around 215 pounds by most recruiting publica-

11:30 A.M. TO 1:30 P.M. CY BELLEVUE HYATT REGEN
In 2012, athletic directors from several districts around the state championed an amendment to the WIAA Handbook that would have effectively ended spring football in its current form by disallowing athletes from using schoolissued football pads during the offseason. The amendment was met with harsh skepticism by area coaches and ultimately failed to pass through the WIAA Representative Assembly. This time around, things were much different. The WIAA announced on Monday the passage of an amendment that will limit high school football practices during the offseason and also place constraints on fully-padded workouts and a maximum number of practices. WIAA High School Amendment 10, entitled
“High School Football Practice Requirements,” limits the number of days a team can practice between the end of spring sports and July 31 to 10 padded, full-contact practices and a total of 20 days under the supervision of the coaching staff. While weight lifting and conditioning workouts would not be subject to the new 20 day rule, seven-onseven competitions and team camps would. Common practice among KingCo schools is two weeks (ten days) of spring football, passing camps or seven-on-seven tournaments in the summer and a team camp hosted by a local university (Puget Sound, Central Washington) that serves a team-bonding experience and allows for controlled scrimmages with other schools.

tions), his speed and even strength are superior, and his athleticism jumps off the screen in his junior football game film. “He’s an all-around player,” Myles said. “He’s really raw still and that is something he will work on as he advances.” Along with his own brother, Jahlen has another elite football prospect to look up to in Stanton Truitt, the son of his mother’s boyfriend back in Georgia. Truitt, a three-star prospect according to Rivals, has offers from Washington to Florida and according to a story from ESPN received 102 letters, in one sitting, from the University of Tennessee in an attempt to curry favor with the speedster. He is also being courted heavily by Franklin and Vandy, and Jack was along for the trip when he suddenly found himself the focus of the conversation. Both mother and son know the offer is a two-way street, a nice gesture but little more. If and when Jack becomes a house-

during the off-season.” Miller cited a piece of proposed legislation in Texas-a place where football is as firmly ingrained into the culture as anywhere in America-that aims to limit full-contact practices to once per week. Washington’s most notable prep program is on Wolverine Way, where coach Butch Goncharoff and Bellevue have surged to national prominence after a decade atop Class 3A. Goncharoff was not available for comment, but Bellevue athletic director Lance Gatter said before the amendment’s passage his program already had a plan in place for spring and summer football that would be in compliance with the new regulations. Other amendments that passed will change the classification process to count students in grades 9-11 rather than 10-12 and create a hybrid rule book for soccer with rules from the NFHS and FIFA.

Interlake, Bellevue battling for final postseason spot in soccer
Newport got a defensive gem on this play at the plate against Ballard, which helped secure the win. Courtesy Photo
Knights on playoff push Newport bolstered its Crown Division title hopes on the softball diamond with a pair of blowout wins. The Knights, owners of a four-game winning streak as of the Reporter’s press time, blasted Eastlake 15-5 and opened this week with a 13-0 win over Roosevelt. Those came on the heels of one-run wins over Issaquah and Ballard. After facing third-place Skyline on Wednesday, Newport will meet Bothell to close out the week on Friday. The Knights are currently in the driver’s seat for the division title, two full games ahead of second-place Ballard. None of the other four teams in the division have a record above .500, and the top four from the Crest and Crown will make the 4A KingCo softball tournament in late May. In 3A/2A KingCo, Interlake is in position to make a run at third-place Mount Si while Bellevue, at 2-8 in KingCo play, will look to improve its seed down the stretch. 2A Lake Washington is unbeaten in conference play and has clinched the league’s only 2A playoff berth.

formerly the head coach at Garfield, said passage of the amendment would force him to rethink some of his offseason scheduling. But, he added, it would be far from the death-blow some around the state are making it out to be. “We will have to get creative,” Myers said. “It makes it harder to do a team camp and full spring ball.” John Miller of the WIAA, said despite the skepticism of coaches in opposition to the amendment, it is simply another added dimension to the safety concerns that are currently reshaping the game. “It revolves around the current stuff we’re seeing John Miller with regard to the risk of concussions,” Miller said. “We see throughout the country that limitations are being placed on the amount of contact coaches can have with athletes
hold name on the prep scene, it is likely every school from here to Nashville will be lining up to recruit him to campus, and he will have free rein to choose. And should Vanderbilt fill their need at his position or were Franklin to move on to coach elsewhere, Jahlen and his mother know there is no guarantee the offer will stand, despite the overture on their visit. Before he can sit in lecture halls or hit the field in the SEC, Jack knows he has to finish middle school, and then make his mark on Wolverine Way. Along with football, Jack also plays basketball (mom thinks that may actually be his better sport) along with running track. And no one in the family is scoffing at the notion of one of the three helping open the doors to some of the top schools in the country, even if attending them is five years off. “Academics are always number one, and sports are just a way to get you there,” LaSonia said. “It is a way to get to a great university, meet new people and get a great degree.”
Only five of the six 3A classified teams in KingCo will make it to the conference tournament on May 7 and a pair of Bellevue teams look to be the ones jockeying for that position. Bellevue currently sits two points in front of Interlake, with one more win to its credit and beat the Saints 2-1 in their meeting on Tuesday behind goals from Ryan Harber and Bennett Bugbee. The two will not meet again in the season’s final two weeks. Sammamish, at 3-5-3 in the league, has already locked up the District 1/2 tournament with the Lake Washington still winless. That tournament begins May 4 and will pit the Totems against the second seeded team from the 2A Northwest Conference. Newport has a record of 4-3-1 in 4A KingCo play with two games to go, the first on Friday at Bothell. The Knights will finish the regular season at Woodinville and currently sit in sixth place. The top six teams in the regular season will make the 4A KingCo tournament, with the top two earning automatic state tournament berths and the final four playing for a shot at the third-place finisher from Wesco.

Musicians plan Howard Roberts benefit show at Bake’s Place BY KEEGAN PROSSER BELLEVUE REPORTER
This weekend, a handful of notable Northwest musicians will play a special benefit show at Bake's Place in Bellevue. The show - which will feature Don Mock (guitar), Dan Dean(bass), Barney McClure (jazz pianist) and Mark Arrington (drums) - will serve as a benefit to raise funds for the “Howard Roberts Project.” An American jazz guitarist, educator and session musician, Howard Roberts is often referred to as the "most heard guitarist in the world." In addition to playing in studio, Roberts contributed to several television and movie projects - including the theme from "The Twilight Zone," "The Munsters,” "Bonanza” and "The Brady Bunch.” Roberts died of prostate cancer in 1992.
The brainchild of Roberts' son, Jay, the "Howard Roberts Project" is a documentary film project featuring exclusive interviews with session musicians who worked closely with Roberts during his extensive career. Among them are guitarists Bob Bain, Mike Anthony, Mitch Holder and Lee Ritenour, as well as American Bass Laureates Carol Kaye and Chuck Berghofer, The show at Bake's Place will be presented in the style of “VH1 Storytellers”; in addition to performing Howard Roberts originals, the musicians will take the opportunity to share stories about their encounters with Howard. The songs performed will be recorded in the coming weeks, in Seattle and Los Angeles, and will make up the soundtrack to the documentary. Jay Roberts said he is making the movie

about his father because he thinks it's important to let the next generation of musicians know their history. He felt it was the right time to make the movie because he wanted to speak to the people who experienced, first hand, the golden era of Hollywood in the 1950s and 1960s. "These people are in their 70s and 80s now," Jay said. "I wanted to capture them in this film." He decided to hold the show at Bake's Place because he already has a good relationship with owner Craig Baker; students from the Roberts Music Institute, based in Bellevue, perform there every month. Sunday's live performance will be filmed as part of the documentary and will include a live Gibson Guitar auction. Tickets for the benefit show ($50) are available now at both the music institute's
and Bake's Place websites. The show will take place on Sunday, April 28, from 6-9 p.m. at Bake's Place, 155 108th Ave NE, Suite 110, Bellevue.

Advanced Treatment for Knee Pain Sufferers How do I know if this treatment is right for me?
Jason had to have his wife bring him into the The Pain Center of Bellevue because he had lost the ability to play golf, sit, stand, or walk for more than ten minutes... He felt crippled, and was admittedly “addicted to drugs now.” Jason had severe knee pain with clicking and popping for over 3 years. He had 40% loss of muscle strength in his legs and because of this he said he could no longer climb stairs or walk without knee pain. He was diagnosed by X-Ray to have arthritis in his knees. Jason had tried the typical medication, physical therapy, chiropractic, and steroid injections with no relief at all... so in 2010 he went ahead and had arthroscopic surgery performed on his left knee. This is when your surgeon can use arthroscopy to feel, repair or remove damaged tissue. To do this, small surgical instruments are inserted through other incisions around your knee.... Well, like in many cases, this did not work to solve the underlying problem so he had lost all hope. When he went to visit an orthopedic surgeon he said he couldn’t help his case and he was going to end up eventually requiring a knee replacement surgery. Jason and his wife had nowhere to turn until they heard about The Pain Center of Bellevue and Joint Regeneration Therapy. Jason was told exactly how the Joint Regeneration Therapy worked and how it might be able to help him... but due to his severity and history of bone on bone arthritis...no promises were given...other than that the staff would do what they do best and provide him with high quality care with the highest quality medical equipment specifically designed to help joints recover, heal, and repair. After a few weeks of care, Jason was pain free and was able to walk, run, sit, lift, work, and do anything he needs to be a normal productive person with a real future. He is off all medication and the thought of a knee replacement is now in the past! Jason’s wife also know’s what a true gift this has been for them and it would not have been possible without The Pain Center of Bellevue.
Joint Regeneration Therapy may be the right treatment for you if: 1. Your knee pain is due to osteoarthritis 2. You are not getting adequate osteoarthritis knee pain relief from walking and/or physical therapy 3. You are not getting adequate osteoarthritis knee pain relief from pain medications, including: Ibuprofen (e.g., Advil®), Acetaminophen (e.g., Tylenol®), Naproxen sodium (e.g., Aleve®) If you are suffering with any amount of knee pain, then you owe it to yourself to have a no-obligation evaluation of your MRI and/or X-ray and physical examination with one of our specialists so we can determine if Joint Regeneration Therapy would help you or a loved one. The first step is this evaluation, just to see if you are a candidate. From there it will be your decision to proceed with care if we accept your case. We only work with serious people who have serious problems... We have a limited number of new patient appointments per week, so call now and reserve a time for us to look at your case and see what’s possible.
Getting to Know My Knee What is the knee joint and what does it do? Your knee is one of the most important joints in your body. It is a major “weight-bearing” joint— which means it helps support your body’s weight. It plays a role in almost all of your movements. The way your knee bends back and forth is a lot like a hinge on a door. Part of it also rotates whenever you bend it (this is called “flexion”) and straighten it (this is called “extension”).
Causes and symptoms of knee pain Knee pain is very common. In fact, 33% of people in the United States over the age of 45 report some form of knee pain.
