Rev. Jackson, Gov. Inslee call for STEM diversity at summit ANDY NYSTROM anystrom@redmond-reporter.com

When Rev. Jesse Jackson stepped up to the podium, people leaned forward in their chairs and listened intently to his thoughts about education. As he locked eyes with more than 320 educators and business leaders at Tuesday’s third annual Washington STEM Summit 2014 at the Microsoft Conference Center, the civil rights leader recalled one of his grade-school teachers believing in her students dur-
ing a rigorous math lesson. “You must never teach down to our children and have low expectations of them,” Jackson — an unannounced guest at the summit — told the crowd during the morning group session. “There’s nothing that you cannot learn given the opportunity. Tell (your students) over and over again that deep water does not drown you — you drown when you stop kicking, you drown when you give up, you drown when you surrender.” Jackson was in Seattle to discuss the
need for high-tech companies to employ women and minorities and added another stop to his visit by joining Gov. Jay Inslee at the summit in Redmond. Prior to Jackson’s speech, Inslee addressed the crowd about improving students’ involvement in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) education. “(Jackson) and I both support the need for more women and more children of color to enter into STEM fields.

Ferguson incident hits home Community members discuss Missouri shooting, race and the future SAMANTHA PAK spak@redmond-reporter.com
On Monday morning, students and staff at Redmond High School (RHS) arrived on campus to find the main entry covered in sidewalk-chalk writing. The messages were in response to the St. Louis County grand jury’s decision to not indict officer Darren Wilson after he shot and killed 18-year-old Michael Brown in August in Ferguson, Mo. One read, “RHS stands with Ferguson,” while another read, “Black lives matter.” Others referenced statistics about black men, crime and the police.

Store employee spots fugitive, alerts police and arrest is made ANDY NYSTROM anystrom@redmond-reporter.com
Small Business Saturday turned into an intense scenario at the Ulta Beauty store in the 17100 block of Redmond Way. At about 5:20 p.m. on Nov. 29, six units from the Redmond Police Department (RPD) descended upon the retail shop after an employee recognized
one of the customers from Washington’s Most Wanted Facebook page and called police. RPD officers took into custody 18-year-old fugitive Precious Shabazz, who was wanted in a number of crimes in King and Pierce counties, including a violent Nov. 5 downtown Seattle robbery where she kicked and punched a store employee, according to Janessa Rosick, public
information coordinator for the RPD. When officers arrived, Shabazz and her accomplice bolted from the store. While she was being chased, Shabazz slowed down and was captured, but her companion escaped. “There was no struggle,” Rosick said of Shabazz’s arrest. Redmond police notified the Seattle Police De-
partment and transferred Shabazz into their officers’ custody and she was booked into King County Jail on investigation of robbery. After RPD officers caught Shabazz, they found her in possession of stolen items, including perfume and cosmetics products. Rosick said the employee wasn’t aware of any shoplifting, she just matched Shabazz’s online photo
with the customer browsing in the store. “It’s one of those cases where people do what we ask them to do: If you see anything suspicious, call 911,” Rosick said. Shabazz’s accomplice is described as a black male, 5-foot-10 and in his late teens or early 20s. Officers set up a perimeter around the area, but didn’t locate him. Redmond police are
assembling a photo lineup to show the reporting party. The Ulta employee and manager declined to be interviewed for this story. Reporter readers praised the employee’s actions on its Facebook page: “Nice work of the employee for being so alert!” “That’s impressive!” “Handled!!!”

‘Merry CHRISTMAS’ signs are back in town ANDY NYSTROM anystrom@redmond-reporter.com
For the third consecutive year, someone has posted signs emblazoned with the wording “It’s OK to say, Merry CHRISTMAS” around Redmond. Six of the green signs with white lettering stand on Northeast 85th Street and 160th Avenue Northeast near the Redmond Regional Library and the complex that houses the Redmond Police Department and the
Redmond Senior Center. The Reporter also discovered one sign in front of St. Jude Catholic Church on 166th Avenue Northeast and two signs nearby where Northeast 104th Street intersects 166th. Underneath the main message, in smaller letters, there’s a quotation from Romans 1:16 of the Bible: “For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes; first to the Jew, then to the Gentile.” A lengthy verse from the
Gospel of Luke follows in tiny lettering. Father James Johnson, pastor at St. Jude, said he doesn’t have anything against the signs and doesn’t know who posted them. “I think the signs express a fine sentiment and the joy of the season that is being celebrated,” he said. “I certainly support any efforts to respect the role religion has in our society. At the same time, we should also remember and wish members of other religions well on their signifi-
cant holy days, which most often do not coincide with Christmas.” The Reporter discussed the signs — which were posted over the weekend — with two library patrons on Monday morning: “It doesn’t bother me. ‘It’s OK to say, Merry Christmas,’ you know, it’s that time of year and people who are not religious at all celebrate Christmas. So I think, to me, it’s pretty generic. I think what they’re trying to do is make it religious,” said Ann Creighton
of Sammamish. Added Jan Edmunds of Redmond: “I think it is great that you can say ‘Merry Christmas,’ not ‘Happy Holidays’ or whatever. I’m glad to see Christ in Christmas — that’s the reason we have it.” Edmunds approves of the Bible verses, as well. “As a Christian, I’m glad to see all this — and people will see it,” she said. Everyone will not agree with the verses, she noted, “but this is what America was built on.” “The ‘It’s OK to say, Merry CHRISTMAS’ signs are a form of free speech, much like political signs,” noted Redmond Mayor John Marchione. The city has no plans

PSE nears completion of first phase of its Energize Eastside project Chicks said because most people do not want the transmission lines running near them, the CAG went over the segments’ different attributes — information provided by PSE — without knowing where the routes were located. “To try and rate them
without being too biased,” he explained. The final CAG meeting will be held from 6-9 p.m. on Wednesday at the Red Lion Hotel Bellevue (11211 Main St.), in the Lake Washington Ballroom. During this final meeting,
the CAG will provide PSE with its recommendations for a route. The group has narrowed things down to four possible routes. Aliabadi said they may pare it down further or they may end up keeping to these four routes.

After more than a year of working with the community, Puget Sound Energy (PSE) is starting to wrap up its first phase of its Energize Eastside project. According to the project website, the project will bring new higher-capacity electric transmission lines to the Eastside. The effort will upgrade the utility’s existing transmission system and the new lines will run from Redmond to Renton and provide more dependable power to the area, the website states. Jens Nedrud, senior project manager for Energize Eastside, said the last major update to the area’s electric system was in the 1960s and things have changed since then. “We’ve seen a tremendous amount of growth,” he said. He said the population will continue to grow and there needs to be electrical infrastructure to support that growth. Nedrud said nowadays, people are also plugging in more electronics and appliances. And while those items are more energy efficient, homes are also being built larger, thus an increased need to plug in things. Gretchen Aliabadi, communications manager for Energize Eastside, said the project’s first phase has consisted of community outreach. She said they spent the year holding open house events, attending homeowners association meetings, meeting in residents’ garages and more — to let people know what PSE is planning to do with the project. She said they held more than 240 briefings. “We’ve done all sorts of meetings,” added Nedrud. Aliabadi agreed, adding, “It’s been a very robust out-
reach process.” Nedrud said there were various questions and concerns, but one topic that came up many times was about building the transmission lines underground. He said for the amount of voltage (230 kilovolts) needed for the lines, “it is tremendously more expensive.” For example, if building overhead transmission lines costs $4 million to $5 million, it would cost about $25 million to build the lines underground. And this is only for construction costs, he said. Aliabadi said PSE could easily build transmission lines underground, but because it would be for aesthetic purposes, the cost of the new lines would fall on those who live in those neighborhoods instead of PSE’s rate payers (as the project would funded normally). Some of the meetings PSE held included those with the Energize Eastside Citizen Advisory Group (CAG), which is made up of 24 individuals representing the communities affected by the project. Aliabadi said they have a good crosscut of people represented in the group, from local businesses and those in the low-income community, to environmental groups and residents from local neighborhoods. Redmond resident David Chicks is a member of the CAG, saying he got involved because it sounded like an interesting opportunity. He described his experience as process oriented, saying he and his fellow group members took things step by step. “It was a pretty slow process,” he said. Chicks said while there were times when he felt they could speed things up, taking things slowly helped if they ran into any issues. He added that going slow also allowed

Budget: City plans to advance citizen priorities for the next two years On Dec. 2, the Redmond City Council approved a budget for the coming 2015-16 biennium. After a thorough review, council members took action to ratify a budget that maps out the city’s efforts to advance citizen priorities for the next two years. However, our budgeting work is not done, and we will continue our fiscal planning efforts into 2015 to ensure community needs are met over our self-imposed six-year planning horizon. As part of our ongoing price of government approach to budgeting, we are pleased to see the administration and staff continuing to emphasize efficiency and innovation, performance measures, and accountability for service results — in short, delivering on the promise of value citizens can expect for their tax dollars. It is worth noting that this year’s budget process gathered more public input than ever before. Beginning with the annual city survey showing 77 percent of our residents believe the city is headed in the right direction, to our new “Your City, Your Choice” website tool, to the conversations elected officials had with neighbors at National Night Out events in August, almost 1,400 people provided input on what city services were most important to them. Clean and green environmental concerns, infrastructure and public safety rated highest among community priorities. Taken as a whole, citizen input has informed and confirmed our city’s continuing efforts to: • Focus growth in our urban centers in downtown and Overlake; • Preserve and strengthen our existing neighborhoods; John Stilin

OPINION
[4] December 5, 2014
• Encourage sustainable economic vitality; • Embrace a strong environmental ethic, with emphasis on parks/open space and natural resources; • Ensure community safety; and • Maintain the quality of life and fiscal accountability we enjoy in Redmond. As a council, we are dedicated to delivering these priority-driven services within our target price of government of between 5 percent and 5.5 percent of community income. This allows the city to “catch up” on some pressing transportation and facilities maintenance needs. It also helps us “keep up” with growth and demands for services from a growing and diversifying Redmond, while still “stepping up” to support the longer range vision for our community. Consistent with this commitment and target price, the budget includes a 1 percent property tax increase, as well as utility rate and business license fee increases. In 2015, we plan to engage the public in a discussion of the city’s six-year financial outlook on infrastructure and service investment needs. In drawing on the experience of other government agencies which
face similar funding dilemmas, this budget’s long-term financial plan proposes a future six-year property tax levy. As a recurring levy, it creates a regular schedule of accountability wherein the community can decide whether or not to keep reinvesting in our city services. In closing, the Redmond City Council is pleased to approve a budget that delivers on our community priorities at an affordable price. We have scrutinized the city’s efficiency efforts, and seen the results of improved performance measures. The budget plan is fiscally accountable for the present, and also outlines a prudent financial plan going forward. We are committed to engaging with and listening to our citizens in the coming years, as we work to maintain what makes our community special — now and in the future — so Redmond remains a place we are proud to call home.
Redmond City Council member John Stilin serves as the chair of the council’s Public Administration and Finance Committee. He was elected to office for his second term in 2013.

The roadmap for our children’s future success Why is it important to have purpose in early childhood development? This was the question I asked myself. What is the relevance? Why is it important? I’m a student at Lake Washington Institute of Technology, where I am studying the pedagogy of early childhood education and development. Not only in the experiences I’ve been through in this study and that of practical child care experience, I have seen the benefits of having a purpose to motivate and cultivate our young children. The age group that I am dealing with is 3 years old. In the general public’s eyes, their response usually is, surprise, “how do you guide purpose and structure in such a chaotic group?” Undoubtedly my reply is it’s not about how, it’s about why. I like to see children’s growth as a continual cycle of change. As they begin something new and
understand how to belong to their community, they become active in their learning and go beyond the current understanding. The cycle of begin, belonging, becoming and going beyond represents the purpose and plans that we can use to help guide our children and the community as teachers. When I look about, I see four areas that, without structure and purpose, do not help the child grow. The most important is community, because from diversity, health and wellness and educational preparedness have a place to thrive. From the words of Hillary Clinton’s book “It Takes a Village” the reference to “it takes a village to raise a child” refers to a community and how to create a growth cycle for their future. Through my education as a student, I have deeply studied these four areas. My goal is to reach out to the community to address the growth of our young children, their diversity, for the lifelong pursuit of wellness and to be able to academically reach their goals
through educational preparedness. The curiosity of the child provides us a wonderful platform to answer embarrassing questions. Everything to a child is different and that’s what fascinates them. They are just learning about the world around them and are driven to ask “why?” Why does that person look different? What does Christmas celebrate? And one of my favorites, just “why?” As a community, we can help answer those questions about diversity by providing rich cultural examples that are targeted toward developing young children. Through conscientious purpose and planning, teachers and communities can work together to help our children grow by beginning their understanding of diversity. As we look at ways that children can begin, we also see the transition to their belonging in our community. As teachers, we must closely look at the words that were said by Martin Luther King Jr: “Education without [ more LETTERS page 5 ]

morals is like a ship without a compass, nearly wandering nowhere.” As a community, we need to make sure there is somewhere for children to go and belong. For an early childhood education, that path is through the elementary system. Being able to provide children with the skills necessary to be successful means granting them the ability to belong to a common goal of lifelong learning. I ask that we all think about what we can do to help the child belong. At the foundation of a healthy lifestyle is wellness and nutrition. Without a plan to provide children with healthy lifestyle habits and routines, we do not help them succeed and become successful. Successful people are healthy in both the mind and body. As a community, we can provide enrichment by creating a setting where children can experience healthy activities and diverse foods that provide a well-proportioned and balanced diet. In our community, there is a rich offering at farmers markets of organic foods that we can show our children is real, not processed, and is within our own community. “Education is the investment our generation makes in the future.” Mitt Romney stated this when he was discussing his bottom-up platform for early childhood education. We are the “our,” and as a community, we can all invest into our future by supporting early childhood development.

Gringauze stars in ‘The Nutcracker’ SAMANTHA PAK spak@redmond-reporter.com
Every year, when the holiday season rolls around, ballet companies throughout the Puget Sound area put on a production of “The Nutcracker.” Emerald Ballet Theatre (EBT) in Bellevue is no different. “It’s a holiday tradition,” said artistic director Viktoria Titova. “It’s a community event that we love to give to our audience.” The EBT production, now in its eighth year, will feature about 160 dancers, with students ranging from 5-18 years old. In addition, there will

be a few adult guest dancers, as well. Of the 160 or so dancers, there will be 14 student dancers from Redmond in the company’s production of the classic Tchaikovsky ballet, including 12-year-old Masha Gringauze, who is playing “Little Clara.” The remaining Redmond dancers are Bella Delgado, Yulia Garaeva, Taylor Ka, Kaelyn Lefferts, Oliver Lefferts, Emily O’Brien, Rachel Seres, Brooklyn Villanueva, Claire Bicak, Natalie Esteb, Lilly Jones, Isabela Lydston and Melody Hanley.

production. “I was really excited,” Masha said about learning that she’d been chosen to play young Clara. “At first, I couldn’t believe it.” She admitted that she “freaked out” when the news finally sunk in and that there was quite a bit of jumping up and down in excitement. Anna Gringauze, Masha’s mother, was also excited for her daughter. “It made her very happy,” said Gringauze, who has never done ballet, but used to ballroom dance. “I’m really glad she got (the role).” Masha has danced in “The Nutcracker” a few times before, playing either a snowflake or a mouse, but this is her first major role in the production.

while she was a rhythmic gymnast — as a way to improve her dancing skills. But then she injured her back and had to take a break from gymnastics. Masha was able to continue with ballet and she has stuck with it ever since, leaving behind her days as a gymnast. The seventh-grader from Redmond Middle School said she chose to stick with dancing because, as cheesy as it sounds, ballet helps her express herself and it is always a challenge. “It takes a lot of hard work,” she said. And hard work has been just what Masha has put into ballet and the role of Little Clara. A foot injury left her on the sidelines for much of the past year, but she healed just in time for when the EBT directors began thinking about who would play the lead roles in this year’s

Shirley Pelham, 79, a longtime resident of Redmond left this world on November 17, 2014. She attended Franklin High School and soon thereafter married her high school sweetheart, Jimmy. Her family was the center of her life. She and Jimmy retired to Eastern Washington in 1998 and tended a family farm until Jimmy’s death. Shirley moved to Bothell in 2009 where she lived out her life with purpose as a beloved resident of Riverside East. Shirley was preceded in death by daughter Diane and husband Jimmy. She is survived by son Doug (Laurie) Pelham of Stevensville, MT; brothers Bruce (Linda) Smith of Duvall; Gary (Jay) Smith of Renton; grandchildren Stephanie Pelham; Josh (Juli) Pelham, Danielle Street and four great grandchildren. She leaves behind her companion Frank Roberto and a large extended family. A celebration of life is scheduled for December 7th at 1:30 p.m. at Northshore Senior Center in Bothell. To honor her life it is asked that you extend a helping hand or ‘pay it forward’ to someone who needs it. 1192183

Madeleine Griffith will be playing “Big Clara” this weekend, the older version of Masha’s character. She had performed as Little Clara in the past and Masha said she would like to follow in the older dancer’s footsteps and play the older role later. “I would definitely want to try that,” she said. “Everyone wants to be Big Clara or a Sugar
Plum Fairy when they get older.” EBT’s production of “The Nutcracker” will be showing Saturday and Sunday as well as Dec. 1314.

www.redmond-reporter.com members and officers from the Redmond Police Department (RPD). “When the verdict came out, we checked in with teens to see how they were doing and suggested we offer a space to have an open discussion and they were for it,” said Ken Wong, teen program administrator for the City of Redmond. RYPAC youth chair Madison Minsk, who organized the forum, said it was especially helpful to have Redmond police officers participate and listen to their concerns. The Tesla STEM High School senior said the officers shared “helpful insights about policing in our community and nationwide.” RPD officer AnnMarie Fein was one of those officers in attendance at last week’s forum. She said they discussed a number of things, including the fact that when police officers in Washington graduate from the state police academy, they are called “peace officers,” not commissioned police officers. Fein said this emphasizes the fact that the police are not there to put people in handcuffs, but to try to resolve a situation in a peaceful manner. Officers must rely on their training, she said, which teaches them to assess a situation before acting and work to ensure the safety
of those in the surrounding area — this includes when dealing with a suspect who has a history of violence or may be displaying threatening posture. “You want to affect the situation with as little force necessary,” Fein said. Regarding the situation in Ferguson, she said it is not fair to judge what happened without reading all of the court documents.
PRECONCEIVED NOTIONS
One of the major issues that has been discussed around the country since the grand jury decision last week is that of race. RHS sophomore Jude Ahmed, who has been following the events of Ferguson since the summer, appreciates the diversity of Redmond, but she said there is still some racial disparity. This can be seen in some people’s responses to the chalk writing in front of RHS. Some of those who didn’t appreciate the messages took the opportunity to respond with their own messages. A few of the additional statements called Brown a criminal and claimed, “Black people are abusing their blackness.” Ahmed, who is of Egyptian descent, described the additional messages — which appeared sometime
throughout the school day on Monday — as blind anger and a refusal to see the other side. She said people are looking at one situation and saying it is not a big deal, when to her, it is. And for Ahmed, it hits close to home because of her family’s background. “How might people see my dad?” she asked. “How might people see my uncle?” Ahmed also put herself in Brown’s shoes and considered what people might say and think about her if she were shot by police. She said because she is Muslim, it would be possible that people would call her a terrorist. “There’s a growing number of people who are starting to suffer,” she said about the country’s racial disparities.
‘IT JUST IS’
Redmond resident Janet Richards said because of what has been going on around the country — from the death of Trayvon Martin in 2012, to Brown’s death in August and other instances of unarmed black men — she and her husband have discussed how they will have to talk with their three kids as they get older. Richards, whose oldest daughter is three years away from college, said because they are black, a mistake they make may not have the same result for someone who is not

ER
right to the ability to protect themselves. She asked, how much evidence is needed to justify someone’s need to protect themselves? “The level of evidence for someone with my skin has gone way down,” she said.
STILL NOT EQUAL
Ahmed said the fact that some people are not acknowledging that there is a problem is terrifying. Jenni Martinez agreed that there is still progress to be made when it comes to race
relations. The RHS senior, who is president of the school’s Latinos Unidos club, said there are still people — teachers and students alike — who can be culturally ignorant and insensitive through their comments and actions. Martinez said she still hears the term “illegal” used sometimes, rather than undocumented, in reference to immigration. Another example she has come across has been the surprise some people show when they see minority students enrolled in [ more ferguson page 10 ]

black. “There’s more risk,” she said, adding that being respectful to the police doesn’t always feel like enough. “That needs to factor into their thinking.” She said it is not a matter of what is fair or not fair, “it just is.” This being said, she admitted that while she feels safe in Redmond, there are certain areas in the country she would not advise her children to visit. Richards also brought up the ongoing gun debate in the country and a person’s

and coaches play in young people’s lives. “We fight today for an amazing sense of justice,” he said, briefly touching on the topic of Ferguson. “Too many of our youth are locked up and not lifted up.” Jackson said “the Lord has given us bright children and a free land,” and they shouldn’t need to worry about bombs dropping at night and bul-

[ stem from page 1] In a state as diverse as Washington, our STEM workforce has got to be as diverse, as well,” Inslee said of one of his goals. He also passionately spoke of education funding and improving graduation rates with services like counseling, learning assistance programs, connecting students with mentors and internships and more. Inslee also praised the many top-notch STEM students in Washington schools, and University of Washington computer science majors Yarelly Gomez (from the Bothell campus) and Karolina Pyszkiewicz were on hand to discuss their positive experiences in their courses. Both spoke of having confidence and tackling challenges to succeed. Gomez is a member of the Society for Advancement
in response to the Ferguson decision have resulted in violence and rioting, Richards said she has been “incredibly impressed” with the protests. She said those who caused the violence and destroyed property were opportunists. “They show up at the times they think they can get away with it,” she said.
James Whitfield, president of Leadership Eastside (LE), an organization that provides a leadership enrichment program for members of the greater Eastside community, recently issued a statement regarding Ferguson in the organization’s latest newsletter. “The challenge that I see
is whether enough leaders, with enough varied perspectives, will embrace the conflict at hand and step into opportunities to build a better picture of where our communities stand today,” he wrote. “And work together to plot a greater story about our shared future.” The full statement can
be found on LE’s Facebook page. Whitfield acknowledged that conflict is difficult, but it allows people to work toward a shared purpose rather than at cross purposes. “It builds community even as it rearranges the status quo,” he wrote.
of Hispanics, Chicanos and Native Americans in Science, and Pyszkiewicz is an ambassador for the National Center for Women and Information Technology, a NASA Space Grant consortium recipient and a Google ambassador. Inslee said Washington victories include launching the STEM Education Innovation Alliance — a collaboration between businesses and educators to ensure that all students acquire STEM skills — and being the only state to receive two National Governors Association Center for Best Practices education grants. According to the The Boston Consulting Group’s report — Opportunity for All: Investing in Washington State’s STEM Education Pipeline — in order to produce major returns, investing $650 million in early childhood education, K-12 education and postsecondary education
would create 8,000 STEM jobs that would generate $4.5 billion. “About the best thing we can do in our state right now is to develop innovative talent,” Inslee said. Jackson gleaned inspiration from Inslee’s speech and addressed Washington’s STEM situation with words that could apply to any scenario: “We’ve seen that inclusion leads to growth, and with growth, everybody wins. Don’t give up on dreaming, don’t give up on believing. If we fall down, we get back up again — because the ground is no place for champions and so we keep rising, we keep fighting back.” Mike Town, an instructor at the Tesla STEM High School in Redmond, was impressed with both Inslee and Jackson’s speeches about STEM education helping to boost the state’s economy and giving everyone
an equal chance to succeed in school and in life. Along with the many breakout sessions during the day — including Addressing the Computer Science Talent Gap, Effective Teaching and Leading and more — Sen. Andy Hill and Rep. Ross Hunter discussed meeting the McCleary mandate while balancing the needs of other services, STEM education being part of the definition of
basic education and improving the economic vitality of
the state by investing in STEM teachers and degrees.

and they were not called in to the response in downtown Seattle. While this was the case, Fein said RPD holds annual training that prepares a team of officers in crowd management. She said if called upon, those officers would be ready to respond to such an event. While some of the protests

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.
