Unions protest plan to open 737 line in China BY THE EVERETT HERALD STAFF editor@rentonreporter.com
The Boeing Co. and the Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China will build a new finishing plant for 737s in China for 737s delivered to Chinese airlines. The announcement of the partnership
between Boeing and the Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China was made during the visit Wednesday of Chinese President Xi Jinping to Boeing’s Everett plant. According to Boeing, the joint venture facility will significantly expand Boeing’s collaboration with China’s aviation indus-
try while also enabling future production rate increases at Boeing’s 737 final assembly factory in Renton. This China-based facility will not reduce 737 program employment in Washington state, according to Boeing. Members of the Machinists union and [ more BOEING page 15 ]
Despite objections from a vocal group at a previous council meeting, the City Council this week unanimously approved an ordinance bringing the city’s medical marijuana licensing in line with the law passed earlier this year by the state legislature. Under the new law, medical marijuana dispensaries, which have never been technically legal in the city, have to apply for and receive a medical endorsement from the state Liquor and Cannabis Board or close their doors by next summer. The ordinance comes following the passage of SB5052 in the legislature this year. Renton previously had a moratorium in place on medical marijuana [ more MARIJUANA page 5 ]
Demolition begins at IKEA store BY BRIAN BECKLEY bbeckley@rentonreporter.com
Demolition of the parking garage at the Renton IKEA store began Thursday morning to make way for a new, larger store. A pair of excavators began tearing down the 365,000-square-foot structure in front of a small crowd that gathered to watch the store’s iconic blue walls fall. The IKEA corporation this past summer filed

plans to build a two-story store at the site of its current store. Once the garage is gone later this year, construction will begin on a 406,000-square-foot store at that site. When it is completed, the company will tear down the current store. The new store will offer what IKEA calls a “more current layout” and reflect the same unique architectural design for which IKEA stores are known worldwide. It will feature the same 10,000 exclusively designed items, 50 inspirational room-settings and three model home interiors. It will also continue to have a supervised children’s play area, a larger restaurant for serving Swedish specialities. It will have 1,700 parking spaces. [ more IKEA page 7 ]

Firefighters to honor comrade who died of cancer BY DEAN A. RADFORD dradford@rentonreporter.com
The region’s firefighting community will join friends and family of Donovan Eckhardt today (Friday) to honor the Renton firefighter who died of cancer in August. Firefighting agencies from throughout South King County – including all Renton fire stations – will gather at 10 a.m. at the Renton fire department’s headquarters on Lind Avenue for a procession to the New Life Church on the Renton-Maple Valley Highway. Eckhardt’s memorial service is at 1 p.m. at the church, 15711 152nd Ave. S., Renton, just off the Maple Valley Highway. Eckhardt, 37, of Gig Harbor died at his home after his fight against cancer. He is survived by his wife Jamie and their son William and newborn daughter. He graduated with honors from Capistrano Valley High School in Mission Viejo, Calif., and earned his associates degree in Fire Science from Santa Ana Community College in Southern California. After graduating from the 126th Basic Fire Academy in Santa Ana, Eckhardt worked for the U.S. Forest Service as a wildland firefighter in the Deschutes National Forest in Bend, Ore.
COURTESY CITY OF RENTON
In December 2008 Eckhardt and 10 other firefighters graduated from the City of Renton Fire & Emergency Services Department first
in-house, fire-training academy. He joined the department in September of that year. “From day one Donovan gave his best to our community,” said Renton Fire Chief Mark Peterson. “He earned the trust and respect of all he came into contact with. Donovan’s courage and the way he approached his illness was an inspiration to me and the members of the department.” Before he died, Eckhardt and fellow firefighters talked about a way to help first responders who are battling a terminal disease. The result is the non-profit Lionhardt created in Eckhardt’s honor, which raises money through donations and fund-raising events. The website is www.lionhardt.org. Firefighters from the South King County and the Eastside will staff all of Renton’s fire stations so that Renton’s firefighters can attend the memorial service, according to Battalion Chief Brian Carson with the Kent Regional Fire Authority. The 5 1/2-mile procession will take Lind Avenue and Grady Way to the downtown Renton Station 11, where Eckhardt was stationed, and then on to the church. Reach Dean A.

Renton hockey player looks to make mark with Ravens BY HEIDI SANDERS hsanders@kentreporter.com
The Seattle Ravens, a new U.S. junior hockey team in Kent, gives local players a chance to improve their skills while playing at a higher level. Andrew Bell, 15, of Auburn, and Ben Lehfeldt-Ehlinger, 18, of Renton, are grateful for the opportunity to play. “For me to play locally is a huge thing,” said Lehfeldt-Ehlinger, a senior at Lindbergh High School. “I know I could have gone other places and played and done fairly well, but for me it is the friend group (here), and I love Seattle.” For Bell, leaving the area to play isn’t really an option right now. “I’m 15,” said Bell, a student at Auburn Riverside. “My parents are not going to send me away. It isn’t going to happen. There aren’t too many options to play this high of level locally.” About two-thirds of the Ravens roster is composed of local talent, said Ravens general manager Adam Speer. “They come from everywhere, from Puyallup to Seattle, Issaquah to North Bend,” Speer said. “They
are really some of the best young players that grew up in our region.” The Ravens take to the ice Friday for their opening game against the Eugene Generals at the Kent Valley Ice Centre, 6015 S. 240th St. The Ravens face the Generals again on Saturday. Both games start at 6:35 p.m. Tickets are $6 for adults and $3 for students and seniors and may be purchased at the door. Food and beverages will be sold at the On the Edge Cafe. Following the games, there will be a public skating session, and several Ravens players will skate with their fans. Speer said his team is ready for its first regular-season game. The Ravens beat the West Sound Warriors in Bremerton last Saturday night in a preseason matchup. The Ravens are one of seven Northern Pacific Hockey League (NPHL) teams throughout Washington and Oregon. Lehfeldt-Ehlinger said the team is excited about the first game. “I think the nerves will set in probably minutes before the game,” he said. “Right now we are not too worried about it.” Lehfeldt-Ehlinger and Bell
started skating and showing an interest in hockey at age 3. “My older brother started playing and my parents would bring me to games, and I guess when I was 3 I could tell that I liked it so I strapped on the skates and took it up,” Lehfeldt-Ehlinger said. When Lehfeldt-Ehlinger moved to the Seattle area from Indiana two years ago, he met Speer, who told him about the Ravens. The Ravens is a developmental team similar to the Seattle Thunderbirds but at a lower level. The NPHL is a Tier III league in U.S. junior hockey. The Thunderbirds play at the ShoWare Center and in the Western Hockey League, a part of the major junior level of the Canadian Hockey League, or the equivalent of Tier I U.S. junior hockey. Tier III hockey is geared toward younger players hoping to develop their skills to go on to play at the college level or higher tier in the junior hockey system. Lehfeldt-Ehlinger, a defenseman, hopes to play collegiately after his stint with the Ravens. “My dream is to play for the Air Force Academy,” he said. “I want to be in the military.”
MT. OLIVET CEMETERY
Ben Lehfeldt-Ehlinger and Andrew Bell. HEIDI SANDERS, Kent Reporter Bell, a forward, wants to work his way through the junior hockey ranks, But for now, both young men are focused on making the Ravens first season a success. “I think an above-.500 record would be a pretty outstanding goal,” Lehfeldt-Ehlinger said. “It will give us a benchmark of where we could line up with other teams.” For more information, visit seattleravens.com.

Plant your trees and tulips while the soil is still warm THE COMPLEAT HOME GARDENER
Marianne Binetti
Get thee to a nursery this week because as fall settles in the prices on trees and shrubs goes down. Fall closeout sales are a good investment especially for larger trees and shrubs. Fall is best for planting trees and shrubs because the soil is still warm from the summer encouraging new root growth but the autumn rains mean you can let nature take over your watering chores. This is also a good week for buying spring blooming bulbs. Tulips, daffodils, crocus and other spring bloomers are planted in the fall but will sprout and bloom in the spring. Buy bulbs as soon as you see them for sale for the best selection. If you can pick them from an open bin reach for the largest bulbs you can find. Bigger bulbs bear more blooms.
Q.
I am going to buy more tulip bulbs this fall but I have been
disappointed in the past as very few of the 50 bulbs I planted actually bloomed. Why? Tulips need to be a mature size to flower so make sure you invest in full size bulbs that are firm with no signs of rot. Tulip bulbs at least 12 cm in diameter are considered superior. Tulips also need soil that drains quickly so pick a raised bed or area with sandy soil. Mice and voles will eat tulip bulbs and deer will nip off the buds before they bloom. Try planting tulips in a large container to keep them safe from rodents. You can even plant groups of tulips in recycled plastic nursery pots that can be set into the ground when in bloom and then easily removed when the tulips fade.
A.
Q.
Are there any spring bulbs that the deer will not eat? What about bulbs that will survive in dry shade? My idea is to plant a host of yellow daffodils under a maple tree that I can see across our field. I have seen deer in this area however. L.P., Yelm I like your idea. Daffodils are naturally rodent and deer resistant and they will thrive even in the dry
A.
shade of a tree. The miniature or dwarf daffodils are the earliest to bloom and easiest to plant as you need only dig down a few inches before popping in a dwarf daffodil and covering it back up with soil and fallen leaves. Look for the varieties Tete a Tete, February Gold, and a sweet smelling mini daffodil called “Minnow.” Dwarf daffodils also have the advantage or returning year after year and spreading into larger colonies.
Q.
I want recommendations for an evergreen shrub that can handle dry shade. I need to screen off a compost pile and other unattractive sites in my landscape. Please don’t recommend rhododendrons. I tried a row of large leaf rhodies and then watched them slowly die because I never remembered to water. W. R., Email At least you fessed up about never remembering to water your rhododendrons. No tree or shrub will do well if the soil is allowed to dry out before a new root system has had time to spread out and find moisture. This can take one to two years.
A.
Rhododendrons suffered tremendous stress from the high temperatures this past summer and fall is the time when the rhododendron is setting flower buds for next year. Everyone with rhododendrons should remember to water them in late summer. Give up on growing rhodies in your dry area. Instead of adding a shrub you may want to consider a screening fence instead. This will take up less room than a hedge and you won’t have to remember to water. If you do want a living green hedge, add compost to the soil before you add the new plants, mulch the top of the soil with two to three inches of bark chips and then next summer lay a soaker hose at the base of the hedge so that it will easier to keep the new planting watered. A few evergreens that can adapt to dry shade include yews, viburnums, laurel, nandina and aucuba. Marianne Binetti has a degree in horthiculture from WSU, is the author of a dozen garden book and the host of Dig In Seattle as TV show about gardening and cooking.

This pensary, we have never permitted is a fight that’s much that under our code, but we will over our heads.” allow you the opportunity to apply City Attorney Larry Warren by the July 1, 2016, date (set in the state law) … and if you don’t apply, you have to quit doing business, for which you’re truly not licensed as it stands now in the city.” Mayor Denis Law reiterated that while the city has never licensed a medical marijuana dispensary, several are operating within the city and have made a “compelling argument” that they add value to the city. He also reiterated that council is not opposed to medical marijuana, but said the city’s hands were tied by state law. “We’re unable to license medical marijuana unless it follows state guidelines, just like we can’t allow a dry cleaner to sell alcohol,” Law said last week. Several residents spoke during the comments section of the Sept. 7 meeting, urging the council not to pass the
ordinance. “We feel like our rights are being taken away,” said one woman through tears, adding that she understands the city must follow state laws, but is asking for their help. “I voted for you to represent me and I’m asking you to represent me now,” said another woman, who said that medical marijuana helped her reduce her daily intake of pills from 14 to two in fighting chronic migraines. “Please give us some time to fight to this initiative.” Another commenter said he was “appalled” by the Council’s action and vowed to run for office himself next year. “Why not make Renton the city that actually moves us forward?” he asked. “Because we don’t violate state and federal laws,” Law retorted. “We don’t get to regulate that. You have to make a compelling case to the state legislature.” Law said the new ordinance actually allows for the continuation of medical marijuana sales in the city, presuming the businesses get the proper endorsements and licenses, instead of an outright ban. The LCB is expected this fall to increase the number of stores allowed per city and re-open the process of licensing. It is the hope that local medical marijuana retailers will get licenses. Once they receive a state license, the city will issue a business license. Any medical marijuana businesses that do not have a state endorsement by July 1, 2016, the date set by the Legislature, must close.

Spirited. Engaging. Tight. It’s what to expect in an election year as candidates pursue big powerful seats in office. Secretary of State Kim Wyman knows as much. The state’s chief elections officer and her staff have been busy behind the scenes, preparing the stage for voters in what promises to be an interesting and contentious 2016 campaign, nationally and locally. Historically, turnout is high when an open-seat U.S. presidency is up for grabs. In Washington, a probable two-horse race between the Democratic incumbent, Gov. Jay Inslee, and Republic challenger Bill Bryant, should stoke a strong statewide vote. “We’re going to see a huge year across the board,” said Wyman, on a visit to the Reporter office in Kent last week. “We expect a record-breaking turnout, which is exciting.” But Wyman, a Republican who will be busy seeking re-election next year, is reluctant to endorse anyone right now. For voters, the Republican race remains too cluttered, the Democratic race too tentative. “I’ve got a couple of front-runners (in mind), but it’s still too early,” Wyman said. “Keep in mind, people, we’re four or five months out from (the) Iowa (caucuses). It’s still early. . . . A lot’s going to happen between now and say, June.” Between now and then, Wyman’s office will work to get the vote out, with the emphasis on reaching the underserved masses, namely military personnel overseas, the minority language communities, and those with special needs. It’s a challenging process, but one Wyman’s office has improved in recent elections. One thing that won’t change next year, however, is the positioning of the state primary. The primary – funded in the new state budget with bipartisan support – is scheduled for May 24 as an all-mail election. Ballots will go out nearly three weeks ahead of time. Democratic Party representatives, announcing their state committee will stick with the caucus/convention process to allocate their delegates, blocked Wyman’s attempt to move the primary to an earlier date in March. Democrats saw no reason to move the date earlier on the election calendar, Wyman said. They remain steadfast, she said, deciding they would not use votes cast in the presidential primary for their nominating process. Their caucuses are March 26. But Wyman is pleased with the state Republicans’ recent decision to use the presidential primary to allocate all their delegates to the Republican National Convention in [ more KLAAS page 8 ]
LETTER TO THE EDITOR 60 days later, toxic debris from fire still not removed Sixty days ago (July 23) the strip mall next to my house (where Bronson Way meets Second Street South and Main Street South) was destroyed by fire. Two restaurants, one social service agency and a glass company were destroyed along with many jobs. Since the side of the building facing Second Street South collapsed onto the street, it was scooped up and deposited in the parking lot near our house to open up the traffic lanes. Unfortunately, a main pedestrian sidewalk used by many Renton High students and senior citizens continues to be blocked. The overall appearance of this corner resembles a Third World combat zone. Meanwhile, many “city hall” people are patting themselves on the back for allegedly “making improvements in downtown.” Before making improvements, does anyone believe that some major messes such as the toxic debris next door should be removed to a proper dumping ground? I know that a lot of toxic water ran down into this house basement like a new river during
the fire ruining the water heater and furnace. The carbon, tar, etc., that accumulated against the side of this house is quite thick and I get an involuntary whiff whenever it starts to rain. During the fire and to date, excess water runs from the destroyed building down Main Street to the Cedar River where it enters the river unfiltered in any way. With the rains of fall coming on, I feel moved to report this to appropriate county, state and federal agencies as nothing has been done over the last two months by the city. All of this has been further exacerbated by the construction start of a multi-story commercial building (is this an improvement that the city people are taking credit for?) that resulted in blocking the sidewalk opposite the burn-out so that children and seniors are forced to walk in a Second Street traffic lane hedged in by barrels. It is my hope that a driver is not texting when arriving at this triple intersection. One improvement that the city “leaders” could make is to name this section of downtown Renton the great Rube Goldberg Sidewalk/Street maze to forewarn the public that chaos and danger are at hand.

Finding serious ‘Ka-ching’ for state’s schools Fines are mounting against the state for not having a plan to ensure public schools are adequately funded. When Gov. Jay Inslee meets with Democratic and Republican lawmakers on the matter Thursday, it will be 43 days since the Supreme Court imposed its sanction. At $100,000-a-day, that’s $4.3 million. Kaching!

To recap, under the McCleary decision, lawmakers have until 2018 to find a way for the state to cover the tab of a basic education for students. They’ve earmarked billions of additional dollars in the budget for classroom supplies, all-day kindergarten and buses. But school districts still rely too heavily on local property tax dollars to operate and pay their teachers, principals and staff. The court wants such dependence to end.

The new store is expected to be finished in 2017. Until then, the current store will remain open. “We are thrilled by the progress represented by this demolition milestone as we prepare to construct a new and updated Seattle-area store,” Lars Petersson, IKEA U.S. president, said in a press release. “After more than 20 years operating at this Renton location, we look forward to many more years – but now with a new store that will offer Seattle-area customers an updated, spacious and enhanced IKEA shopping experience.” During construction, IKEA will be providing additional parking nearby on weekends for customers and shuttling them to the store. Customers can find detailed information about parking directions, shuttle plans and construction updates at the website at IKEA-USA.com/Seattle and or on Twitter at @IKEA_Seattle. IKEA is working to recycle, repurpose or salvage as much of the materials as possible, according to a press release from the company.

Republicans will also hold precinct caucuses on Feb. 20, and county conventions in March and April. “This is a big win for the voters of Washington,” Wyman insisted. “For months, I have been urging both parties to use the presidential primary results.” The presidential primary was created as a citizen initiative to the Legislature back in 1989. “The old caucus system run by the parties isn’t as convenient or effective in engaging voters as a statewide election for four million registered voters,” Wyman said. “Our main goal should be giving a voice to the broadest possible swath of the electorate.” As Wyman sees it, voters win with
IKEA opened the store in Renton in 1994, taking over a warehouse that had been built in 1979 to hold aerospace electronics.

the more inclusive primary election. From her perspective, the election is meaningful, and much more tangible than a poll or survey. “This isn’t about the parties; this is about voters and giving them a voice to vote in a way that they are used to in an election,” she said. “It does mean something. “What the parties do with the results is a secondary thing. What matters is that people have a voice.” Skeptics claim the primary – which many deride as an $11.5 million beauty contest – won’t have much affect on how voters here choose a presidential nominee. Wyman urged lawmakers to require the parties to — at least partially — consider results before funding the election, but her request was ignored. Instead, lawmakers funded the elec-
tion with no mandate that it actually count for something — anything. But the May primary stuck. Wyman is optimistic the primary will be relevant late into the campaign season. Combined with late primaries in California, Oregon and Washington, there may be a greater probability of candidates visiting our state and talking to voters, Wyman said. “We could have a couple of candidates on both sides still in play by May,” she said. “I know we have a history by May that it’s already decided. . . . I don’t think you can make that assumption about ‘16. I could be wrong.” Mark Klaas is editor of the Kent Reporter. He can be reached at mklaas@ kentreporter.com.
way to do that could not be bridged in this year’s recordsetting 176 days of session. So another hour of talking in a SeaTac hotel Thursday won’t achieve an accord either. However, it may reveal how deeply individual lawmakers and the governor are digging in on their positions ahead of the 2016 session and ensuing election season when most of them, including Inslee, will be on the ballot and could face this issue. Democrats think the best way to break districts’ addiction to levies is with injections of dollars from a new capital gains tax. Republicans counter it would be better to make a swap – give districts more from the pot of state property tax collections and direct them to seek less locally. Passing a new tax or swapping levies is a complicated and formidable political task. It’s taken 43 days to get the conversation going again. It could be another 100 days or maybe 400 before they figure something out. That would add up to some serious Ka-ching!

Starting Sunday (Sept. 27), a 17-mile stretch of Interstate 405 between Bellevue and Lynnwood will join state Route 167 southward from Renton as two freeways where motorists can pay a toll to speed them on their way. To get ready for the launch, starting tonight (Sept. 25) the state Department of Transportation will close two lanes in both directions of I-405 between Bellevue and Bothell to finish striping the lanes. Toll rates set by the Washington State Transportation Commission will adjust based on traffic congestion to keep the express toll lanes moving at 45 mph or faster. The SR 167 HOT lanes – the state’s first-ever, high-occupancy toll lanes using the Good To Go! pass – opened in May 2008 between Renton and Auburn as a pilot project to test whether variable tolling will make state roads more efficient and less congested. Any existing Good To Go! pass will work to pay a toll in the express toll lanes on I-405, but only a Flex Pass will allow three-person carpools to declare HOV status and ride toll-free, according to the transportation department. The toll minimum is 75 cents and the maximum is $10, though 90 percent of tolls will be less than $4, according to transportation officials. “We need to be serious with our drivers,” said Craig Stone, the assistant secretary for the transportation department’s Tolling Division, said in a news release about buying passes. “This is crunch time to get ready for Sept. 27. We want people to take action.”
Information about purchasing a Good To Go pass or a free Flex Pass is available online at www.wsdot.wa.gov/Tolling/405. If drivers don’t qualify for a free Flex Pass, they can still buy one for $15 at GoodToGo.com or by calling 1-866936-8246 State transportation officials are urging motorists to use alternative routes to I-405 this weekend to avoid the striping project and the expected congestion. “Nearly a quarter of a million people use I-405 every weekend, and we need every one of them to plan ahead before they get on the road,” said Lisa Hodgson, the transportation department I-405 project engineer, in a news release. “Whether they’re headed to a game at Husky Stadium or CenturyLink Field, drivers should plan for delays and use alternate routes to make sure they arrive before kickoff,” she said. The closures of two lanes in each direction start at 11 p.m. Friday between between I-90 in Bellevue and Northeast 195th in Bothell. The closures are expected to end at noon Sunday and the express-toll lanes will activate. Here are the details: • All Northeast 6th direct access ramps will be closed. • All Northeast 128th direct access ramps will be closed. • During late evening and early morning hours, I-405 may be reduced to one lane in each direction at SR 520 and SR 522. • Drivers should plan ahead or reschedule trips to avoid delays. The striping work is weather dependent; a delay would affect Sunday’s opening of the express toll lanes.

Renton falls; Lindbergh and Hazen pick up wins BY BRIAN BECKLEY bbeckley@rentonreporter.com
The Renton Indians got out to a quick start this past weekend against Kennedy Catholic, but the Lancers took over in the second quarter and never looked back, beating Renton 47-7 at Renton Memorial Stadium. The Indians got on the board first when quarterback Drew Olson connected with Tahj Bailey on a 30-yard pass for a touchdown and a 7-0 lead after the first quarter. But from there it was all Kennedy. In the second, the Lancers picked up two touchdown runs from 4 yards and 1-yard out to head into the half with a 14-7 lead. In the third quarter, Kennedy scored four times, on a 2-yard run, an 80-yard run, a 50-yard pass and a 45-yard run. It was 40-7 as the teams headed into the final frame. Kennedy added another 13-yard run for an insurance touchdown in the fourth quarter to secure the 47-7 win. Renton falls to 0-3 on the year and 0-1 in the Seamount League. The Indians travel to Evergreen on Friday. Lindbergh 50, Highline 6 The Lindbergh Eagles stayed sharp this past weekend, picking up their third win in as many chances with a 50-6 walloping of Highline at Highline on Friday. No statistics were available from the game. Lindbergh is now 3-0 on the season and 1-0 in the Seamount League. They play Cascade Christian today, Friday, at Renton Memorial Stadium.

Lindbergh blasts Evergreen 6-0
The Liberty Patriots rallied for 14 points in the fourth quarter on Friday to come from behind to beat Interlake and stay unde-
feated on the year. It was an inauspicious start, however, when Interlake picked off a pass and returned it for a touchdown to give them a 7-0 lead. Interlake then followed up with a second touchdown to go up 14-0, but Liberty did not back down, scoring a touchdown of their own to close the gap to 14-7. The teams then traded field goals through the
end of the first and second quarters, first Interlake, then Liberty and then Interlake again, giving the Saints a 20-10 lead at halftime. Liberty clawed their way back into the game with a rushing touchdown to make it 20-17, only to see Interlake answer with a rushing TD of their own to go back up 27-17, but before the frame was over, Liberty ran it in again to

It’s been a rough start for the Renton Indians girls soccer team. Though they played Lindbergh to a 4-4 draw on Sept. 17, they were unable to build on any momentum heading into a match Tuesday at Kennedy Catholic and fell 6-0 to the Lancers. Renton is now 0-4-1 on the year. They were scheduled to play Tyee (3-1-0) Thursday at Renton Memorial Stadium.

In third singles, Sohil Shah won 6-2, 6-2, while Taseen Hossain won his fourth singles match 6-0, 6-0. In doubles play, the first team of SonLam Nguyen and Justin Nguyen and the second team of Nathan Nguyen and Alan Li both wont their matches won 6-0, 6-0.

Stephen Underwood 1964 – 2015
Stephen Underwood, 51, passed away peacefully on September 3, 2015 in Ogden Utah. He was born July 6, 1964, in Renton, WA to Barbara and Dell Underwood. He is preceded in death by his father, Dell Underwood, his brother, Bill Underwood, and his son, Bradley Underwood, along with several other close relatives. He joined the Navy in 1983 where he served four years on the U.S.S. Constellation CV64, and traveled the world. He married Janette Johnson in 1981 and had two children, Bradley Underwood and Samantha Underwood-Lucero (Christian), and later divorced. He married Lori Barnard in 1992 and had one son, Nicolas Underwood. He is also survived by his mother, Barbara Underwood, two sisters; Susan and Linda Hill (Chuck), and one brother Wayne Underwood (Joan). Steve was a Seahawk fanatic; the ultimate number 12! He never missed a Seahawk game and you would rarely catch his TV on anything but sports; at least when HE had control of the remote. Steve moved to Utah in 2013 to be closer to his daughter and son-in-law (Samie and Chris). He cherished the hours spent laughing and playing with his three grandchildren; Makaia, Phoenix and Mia. Steve was a very loving and hardworking man, who could make anyone laugh but sadly, Steve struggled with alcoholism, which ultimately took his life. Funeral services will be held at the Tahoma National Cemetery, Kent, WA on October 9, 2015 at 10:30am with a celebration of life to follow at the Skyway VFW, Seattle, WA. 1419157

Homeless man threatens couple, officer and lands in jail The following information was compiled from Renton Police Department case reports. BY DEAN A. RADFORD dradford@rentonreporter.com
A 23-year-old Renton man was arrested Sept. 2 after he threatened a couple with a knife near Williams Avenue South and South Tillicum Street and then threatened to kill a Renton Police officer. As the homeless man, who is wellknown to officers, waved the knife at the couple, a plain-clothed officer nearby ordered him to leave them alone. The suspect then turned his attention to the officer and the couple fled. Ordered to put the knife away, the suspect raised his arms, waved the knife whose tip was sticking from the sheath and threatened to kill the officer.
Without any protective gear and fearing for his safety, the officer drove away and alerted other officers. Now on his BMX bike, the suspect was pursued through downtown Renton. The pursuit ended at about 4:30 when the front tire hit a cement curb in the Fred Meyer parking lot, throwing the suspect over the handle bars and into barkdust. Three allmetal daggers were found in the sheath. He was booked into the SCORE regional jail for investigation of seconddegree assault. He told officers he didn’t threaten anyone with a knife.
who was inside a black Dodge Magnum with tinted windows. They were headed down Renton Avenue in a Crown Victoria after buying something to drink at a convenience store in Skyway at about 12:30 a.m. The Magnum pulled up next to driver’s side of the Crown Victoria; a window was rolled down and eight rounds were fired at the Crown Victoria. The driver of the Crown Victoria then crashed into a tree at Southwest Victoria Street. Officers arrived to find numerous people standing around, including some who weren’t cooperative. The gunshots were heard by officers and residents in the area. Ten 9 mm shell casings and five .45-caliber casings were found on Renton Avenue South. An officer removed a loaded 9 mm handgun from the waistband of one victim, who said it hadn’t been fired. The four victims, ages 15, 17, 19 and 21, were treated at Valley Medical Center or Harborview Medical Center.
FOUR INJURED IN SHOOTING: Four young males were injured by gunfire or when their car crashed early on Aug. 29 after they were shot at multiple times near Renton Avenue South. The victims didn’t know why anyone would shoot at them, nor did they know

SMOKING IN THE ELEVATOR: Two juveniles were standing in a Transit Center elevator waiting area near a police substation Sept. 1 as a fully uniformed Renton Police officer walked in. The officer couldn’t help but smell the overwhelming odor of marijuana. The young male then bent over slightly and lit something inside a multi-colored glass pipe and inhaled three times. The two teens tried to walk off but were stopped. The girl become confrontational with the officer as he tried to place the boy in handcuffs. Not able to identify both teens, they were released rather than cited for unlawful transit conduct at the downtown Transit Center. The marijuana was confiscated.

www.rentonreporter.com [ BOEING from page 1] SPEEA posted informational pickets outside two entrances to the Renton plant urging the company to preserve jobs. One sign read: “Sell Our Airplanes, Not Our Jobs.” “Boeing is expanding our longstanding relationship with Chinese industry to meet vital goals for our company: We are bringing the Boeing 737 closer to our Chinese customers, supporting rising 737 production rates and enhancing our access to China’s dynamic and fast-growing aviation market,” said Ray Conner, Boeing Commercial Airplanes president and CEO. Boeing rival Airbus opened an A320 final assembly plant in Tianjin in 2008 and recently announced plans to build a second plant by 2017 in that port city to complete cabin work on A330s. Boeing also announced on Wednesday it will sell 300 jetliners to Chinese airlines and leasing companies. Chinese airlines are to buy 240 planes — 190 737s, which are built in Renton, and 50 twin-aisle planes built in Everett. Another 60 737s are to go
to Chinese lessors ICBC and CDB Leasing. Boeing revealed the deal in a fact sheet given to reporters just before Xi’s tour of the Paine Field factory. The airplanes are worth $38 billion at list prices. The actual value of the deal is likely much less. “China is a critical international market for commercial airplanes,” said Conner, in a written statement. “We thank our Chinese customers for selecting fuel-efficient Boeing airplanes to meet their fleet growth and expansion.” “Boeing airplanes have played an important role in supporting the development of China’s aviation transportation for the past 40 years,” Li Hai, president of China Aviation Supplies Holding Co., said in Boeing’s written statement. “These additional airplanes will further help connect the people in China and around the world.” Boeing estimates that China will need to buy 6,330 new planes worth $950 billion over the next 30 years, and China is expected to surpass the U.S. as the world’s largest commercial airplane buyer by 2030.

Pampered Pets... The Importance of Dentistry a rough surface for more plaque to adhere to, and pushes the gums away from the teeth, which increases surface area for more plaque to adhere. Eventually, the supporting structures of the tooth (bone, tissue, periodontal ligament) are destroyed and the tooth becomes mobile and will either fall out on its own or need to be extracted. Signs of periodontal disease are bad breath (halitosis), reluctancy to eat, chewing on one side of the mouth, dropping food, pawing at the face or rubbing the face on the floor, drooling, becoming head shy, and painful mouth/face.
What’s All the Barking About? By Kathy Lang, Family Dog Training Center All dog owners know barking is a form of canine communication. A few barks here and there are tolerated by most owners, but when, and how, can you stop excessive barking? Barking at Home: If Fido’s barking for attention, think redirection. Give him a chew bone or interactive toy. If he’s young and energetic, it may be time for a vigorous play session. If the barking is directed at someone or something outside the window or fence, there are two options: Work through the behavior by asking friends to help you with choreographed training sessions, or eliminate the dog’s ability to see and hear whatever’s causing the barking. With training and consistency, most dogs can learn to ignore what’s going on outside their home and yard.
Barking at Strangers: If a visitor comes to your home, your dog should be accepting and tolerant. Teach your dog that one or two barks when the doorbell rings are acceptable (if they are in your household), and reward with quiet praise. After that, tell your dog to “Sit” and use a command such as “Quiet” to advise your dog that barking is no longer permitted. Reward a quiet, sitting dog with treats. Redirect and discourage ongoing barking with techniques that are appropriate for your particular dog, such as a spray of water from a plant mister bottle or the startling sound of a plastic shaker bottle. The key is to remain calm. Owners who sound excited and repeat commands inadvertently encourage barking through their words and actions.
Veterinarians recommend the following care for pets: STEP 1: Bring your pet in for a dental exam. Don’t wait for his annual checkup if you suspect a problem. STEP 2: Begin a dental care regimen at home. Brushing your pet’s teeth daily is very important. We also recommend using a specially formulated dental rinse, and dental chews and food. Please ask us if you need instructions on brushing your pet’s teeth, or if you have any other questions. STEP 3: Schedule your pets for an annual
teeth cleaning with x-rays. This is also very important and ensures we are catching any disease early enough to treat.
Fearful Barking: Dogs with calm and confident pack leaders will learn by example. Never force a dog to deal with more than he can handle. Use slow desensitization techniques to help the dog learn that there’s no reason to be afraid of a person, place or situation. Treats are often a good way to change the subject, espe-
cially if the scary stranger ultimately becomes synonymous with yummy food. Professional Guidance: Sometimes barking issues are more severe and resolution requires the assistance of an experienced trainer or veterinarian specializing in behavior modification and problem solving.

What is periodontal disease? Over 85% of dogs and cats have some type of periodontal disease. Periodontal disease simply means that the gums and bone that hold the teeth in place are being destroyed by oral bacteria. This preventable disease is the number one diagnosed disease in our pets, yet many animals suffer needlessly. Periodontal disease begins with gingivitis, or inflammation of the gum tissue, which is caused by plaque. Plaque is a mixture of saliva, bacteria, glycoproteins and sugars that adhere to the tooth surface. Within minutes after a cleaning, a thin layer of plaque has adhered to the teeth. Eventually this hardens to become calculus or tartar. Calculus by itself is nonpathogenic - it does not cause disease. However, it does create
