gives students more time to develop their technical skills. Peterson said this is important if they choose to try out for any sort of honor program as the level of competition in such programs is high and only becoming more challenging.

Even if students don’t choose to try out for an honor program, Redmond High School (RHS) orchestra director Paula C. Ferguson said the skill level in music programs at the high school level is also high.

Although the program change takes place at the elementary level, both Ferguson and RHS band director Andy Robertson

“I think it’ll be great,” he said.

Bryan Kolk, the orchestra director at Redmond Middle School (RMS), said having the band program begin at the same grade level as orchestra also allows for consistent instruction. Previously when band began a year after orchestra, some students would join the latter for a year before switching to the former in order to play the instrument they really wanted to play.

Join a revolution!

Since 1993, about 2,250 new housing units have been built in downtown Redmond.

These units have come in the form of traditional apartments and condominiums, town homes and sustainable living communities and offer people several options when looking for a place to live.

“We want to look at a variety of housing,” said Jeri Rowe-Curtis, chief policy adviser for the City of Redmond.

This variety includes units for residents ranging from young professionals to young families to empty nesters who want to move out of their bigger homes and into something smaller. In addition, about 10 percent of the units built must be affordable housing.

The City of Redmond is focusing on development downtown to turn the neighborhood into an urban center. According to city documents, officials plan to bring the number of downtown dwelling units up from 2,300 in 2010 to 6,170 by 2030. This would more than double the number of residents from 4,270 to 11,350.

The city saw a big wave of developers in 2004

but senior planner Gary Lee said things stalled and paused a bit with the economic downturn in the last few years, adding that there have been two recessions since then but Redmond has fared better than other cities.

“It’s been going in waves with the economy,” said he about housing developments in the neighborhood. “We’ve been really fortunate compared to other cities.”

Lee said according to the urban vision set for downtown, development and construction activity has been brisk during the past few years, and it looks like it will continue for the next several years if the economy holds steady.

There are a number of four- to six-story buildings currently under construction through private development in downtown.

Lee said they are the 154-unit Redmond Square Apartments on 170th Avenue Northeast at Northeast 80th Street, the 130-unit Center Pointe development on Cleveland Street at 164th Avenue Northeast, the 150-unit Old Town development on Cleveland and Brown streets, the 150-unit 85th Street Apartments on Northeast 85th Street at 158th [ more building page 7 ]

Ghag goes on hunger strike to protest Indian government officials Samantha Pak spak@redmond-reporter.com

Since Saturday, Jyoti Ghag has been on a hunger strike to protest against government officials, police departments, lawyers and judges in India who she said have been involved in torturing members of her family and violating her human rights.

These acts came after Ghag — whose protest began on the corner of 187th Avenue Northeast and Redmond Way but moved to her Sammamish home when she started running a fever — requested the Indian government investigate the murder of her father, a former police officer in the Indian state of Maharashtra, who died 10 years ago. Ghag continues to fast, drinking only water or lemon water, and said she will move her protest back to the corner when she is feeling stronger.

Ghag said her father, whose estate in India was worth about $3 million to $4 million, was killed by relatives “for his money.”

His death, she said, came after he confronted a relative, a police officer in Mumbai, about suspicions of money laundering in 1998. The relative began abusing and torturing Ghag’s father, who was

“You cannot imagine the kinds of conditions they made him live in,” she said.

Ghag said her father endured all of this until he died in January 2003.

It took Ghag two years to gather enough evidence to be able to bring the issue to the authorities in 2005 and when she did, an investigation order was issued by Raosaheb Ramrao Patil, the home minister of Maharashtra.

Ghag said no investigation was done as the police commissioner at the time took bribes to

sweep the issue under the rug. However during this time, her two brothers, who still live in India, became victims of physical, mental and emotional abuse during this time.

“They are the only heirs of my dad’s property,” she explained as the reason.

A second investigation order was issued to a new police commissioner in 2008, but Ghag said the same thing happened this

time around as with the first commissioner and no report was filed.

“Instead they arrested my mentally unstable brother,” she said.

This was in September 2008 and Ghag flew to India the next day. At this time, she had been diagnosed with cancer in her ear and was forced to discontinue her treatment while she was abroad. It [ more strike page 5 ]

Let’s hold off on Armageddon

Vote online:

Some in our state are having an OMG moment because Sens. Rodney Tom and Tim Sheldon — both DEMOCRATS — have sided with Republicans to take control of the state Senate.

Apparently, Armageddon is just around the corner.

Interesting those same people weren’t howling when Tom, as a Republican state senator from the Eastside, actually changed parties in 2006 and became a Democrat. Apparently outrage is a one-way street.

Tom also is being blasted because people in his 48th Legislative District support Democrats.

Yes, they do – but we think voters around here are more likely to vote for the person rather than the party. That’s one reason why our Top Two Primary was supported by a majority of voters.

People know that a “D” or “R” after your name on the ballot doesn’t necessarily make you best for the job.

What’s also amazing is that this doom-andgloom is being raised before the Senate, with Tom in control, even before any bills have passed. Apparently he is guilty until proven in-

It is convenient to Redmond Town Center and central businesses, which keeps people shopping in town.

Pam Harrington, Redmond

Does character fit into the game plan?

What are we, and society, teaching our kids?

Does character matter anymore? What is a person’s word worth these days? What are our youth learning from so-called ‘role models’?

I have coached summer baseball in the Redmond area for 44 years, and for 27 years have served as the president of the Puget Sound Mickey Mantle League. I’ve seen a number of changes in our youth and their parents and in what I call “commitment.” And just when I think I’ve seen it all, I find I have not: • We have situations where high school coaches, being paid by a summer program (and there are a number of these) allow the summer organization to “promote” they are a “feeder team to the high school,” insinuate that anyone who attends school at “their” high school must offer themselves to the summer team if they hope to play high school ball. This technique is used as far down the chain as 12- and 13-year-olds.

1. It’s against Washington Interscholastic Activities Association (WIAA) regulations.

2. It’s against and enforced by some, but not all, summer baseball leagues.

3. Most importantly, WIAA ignores the regulations, the high schools ignore the rule and the head coaches ignore the rule.

All a lack of character.

• Parents and players make commitments in August to a summer program, but later after

nocent. Funny that we don’t hear this same cry when both Democrats and Republicans come together in a bi-partisan manner to pass legislation.

Count us incurable optimists, but we think the state will survive — and perhaps improve — with the Senate having both Democrats and

tryouts and after they cannot be replaced, they decide the “grass is greener” and want to leave one team and join another — sometimes if the new team will be better, they like that coach better. Too many parents allow their player to disregard the commitment made, and make the switch. Honoring their handshake, their commitment, their given word, no longer applies. No life lessons for their child, except it’s OK to back out of a commitment anytime you feel there’s a better deal out there.

• A summer ball coach is offered more money next season; he gets to be a head coach. All wonderful and deserved. However before the current year is done, while in the current team’s uniform and while being paid by the current team, he covertly recruits several top players for his new team next season. All the while telling the head coach and organization he’s in as coach for the next season. And the chance to set an example for the impressionable young players is lost.

How did we get here? How did this get to be “OK” to so many? (Five showed character and stayed — so there is character out there.)

• A college coach cheats in his recruiting or “payment” to athletes, and when caught, sanctions are imposed. The coach doesn’t like the fact his high-profile program can’t go to a bowl game, or recruit, so he breaks his contract and resigns, leaving the players he recruited, who committed because of him, and goes to another college or the pros. The new team ignores his lack of character, hires him, usually with a significant increase in pay that only reinforces the perspective that this behavior pays off.

• A professional player hammers out a twoyear deal with his team, but after one year, he’s a “star” or another player received a multiple-year deal. Suddenly, he doesn’t see the contract he so happily signed a year ago as binding. So he “holds out,” the contract doesn’t matter nor does his handshake or his signature. The team caves, reinforcing the belief that a “contract isn’t necessarily a contract.” Lack of character all around.

Republicans in charge. Laws passed after both parties and both houses have had a chance to be heard usually are superior to what we get when one side is running the railroad.

– Reporter Newspapers

• Hall of Fame vote: Players used drugs, the league ignored that, the players union ignored it and backed the players that are caught. So-called analysts believe the cheater should be in the Hall of Fame. So let’s send the message that it’s OK to cheat? It’s OK to cheat because “we” know others cheated but didn’t get caught? Twenty percent of the voters say cheating is OK — how many children believe cheating is OK? When the world ends for you, did you have character? Did you give your kids character? Is your handshake worth anything, your word?

Les Dow, Redmond, Dow Baseball Club

Road tax plan just causes more problems I see another bureaucratic nightmare coming with the state looking into levying a road tax by mile. Unless the oil companies see a way to rake in more profits, eliminating the gas tax will lower the price of gas and will increase consumption because gas is cheaper. That’s the reverse of what is needed to reduce consumption.

There are many problems. Do I get credit for my out-of-state miles? Who will check my odometer each year? Is my tax per mile for a 3,000-pound vehicle going to be the same as the little 900 pound SMART car and the 20,000 pound truck? How will they charge for mileage on interstate trucks? Will I get a separate bill to pay? Will it be prorated when I trade vehicles?

You get the picture.

The gas tax is fairly applied now based upon the gas you buy. We should solve that problem instead of creating another bureaucracy costing more than it will take in with a new revenue system for the roads.

For electric vehicles, add a fee to the license tags based upon vehicle weight.

Olympia — can you hear us: Instead of creating five problems to solve one, keep it simple.

Myers will chair Together Center board of directors

Redmond City Council member Hank Myers has been elected chair of the Together Center board of directors.

Myers was one of four newly elected members.

Sammamish planning commissioner Mahbubul Islam of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency was elected vice chair; Bellevue resident Nicola King of Premera Blue Cross was elected secretary and Bothell resident Kevin Vitulli of The Bank of Washington was elected treasurer.

Barb de Michele of Issaquah will move into the immediate past chair role after two years at the helm.

Myers has been on the Together Center board for four years.

On taking the role of chair, he said, “I am proud to be a leader at Together Center. We help by enabling people to get help from an amazing array of programs.

We provide advocates and services at our front door so people struggling with language barriers, homelessness or other hurdles (can find) available services. Importantly, we keep costs low and provide cost efficiencies for 18 agencies on campus thanks to partnership with the community. As a Redmond City Council member, I know how important Together Center is to our Eastside communities.”

One of the first nonprofit multitenant centers in the nation, Together Center (formerly, Family Resource Center) was designed to lower barriers to finding help.

Where East King County residents once needed to travel from Bothell to Renton or beyond to find help at individual locations, people from throughout the Eastside now find comprehensive assistance at one location in downtown Redmond.

Redmond resident Peggy White will be one of six contestants in Puget Sound Energy’s (PSE) Re-Energized by Design competition.

PSE customers will compete weekly in a series of energy-efficiency room makeover challenges. Prizes include light emitting diode (LED) and compact fluorescent light (CFL) lighting from GE, and a full laundry and kitchen appliance suite by Frigidaire.

The last contestant standing will win $5,000.

“The stakes are high so we know the competition will be intense,” said Dennis Rominger, energy efficiency expert at PSE. “These six contestants are ready to compete head to head. Sweat will be shed, winners will be crowned and most importantly, we will see creative ways to bring great design and energy efficiency together.”

took three weeks to get her brother out of jail — all the while, she said Indian officials mocked her efforts and worked to defame her and arrested her for allegedly breaking into her father’s home and trying to steal $1,300 worth of property. Despite the seriousness of the events, Ghag was amused by this last detail as she spent more money to fly to India than she allegedly stole.

She added that the authorities are also calling her a terrorist to further defame her.

“It doesn’t matter (to them),” she said about how all of this is ruining her life.

Ghag’s hunger strike will end once her seven requests are met.

Her requests are: having her name cleared from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and Embassy of India in Washington, D.C.; having Mohit Shah, the chief justice of Maharashtra, release a letter of apology addressed to Ghag from the External Affairs Ministry, which was submitted to Shah’s court on Nov. 7, 2011; bringing Ghag’s father’s murderers and her family’s abusers to justice; rescuing her brothers from their abusers in an expedited manner and getting them urgent psychiatric help; taking disciplinary action against Shah for violating Ghag’s human

do with the holiday.

“The teens have fun because they not only get to participate and plan but they also learn what they teach,” said City of Redmond teen and 50plus programs administrator Ken Wong about the organizers.

The OFH holds a num-

ber of cultural events throughout the year and Ehni said it is important to do so because they live in such a diverse part of the world and it is important to understand each others’ cultural differences and similarities.

She also said if people know more about each other, it can only help them understand and accept each other.

“Starting younger always helps,” she added about holding such events and activities for teens and kids.

Other cultural events at the OFH have included celebrations for Cinco de Mayo, winter holidays, Chinese Harvest Festival, Day of the Dead, Diwali, St. Patrick’s Day and Mardi Gras.

“We try and infuse cultural celebrations as much as we can,” Wong said about the city’s teen programming.

He said these cultural events for teens are important because they honor those who celebrate them and provide a space in which they can share their traditions with others.

“We try and make them all inclusive because eventually younger kids will be teens and adults share their experiences that they remember as a teen,” Wong said.

The survey asked parents to rank order a list of preferences that could guide the selection of high school variance requests. Approximately 1,200 middle school parents responded to the survey. Parents selected sibling preference as their first choice, followed by the split feeder preference as the second choice (split feeders are schools that send students on to more than one school, such as Evergreen Middle School, whose students go on to both Redmond and

Eastlake high schools). The remaining choices received substantially less support.

In-district variances allow students to attend a school other than their neighborhood school.

During the open enrollment period (Feb. 1-28), parents and students may go to their neighborhood high school to fill out and submit an in-district variance request form specifying the high school of their choice. [ more variance page 7 ]

She said the teen organizers will have researched the activities they are running, which will include origami paper folding, as well as spring roll and fortune cookie making,

and be able to answer any questions people may have.

This is Ehni’s second year working as an organizer for the Lunar New Year event. She said through her experiences, she has learned a lot more about the holiday, including which

activities they hold are actual Lunar New Year traditions — the lion dance and red envelope exchange — and which aren’t — the origami.

She said with the latter, they continue to host the activities because they are popular but clarify that they have nothing to

LWSD adjusts high school variance process With the new grade reconfiguration that brings ninth graders into the high schools, the Lake Washington School District (LWSD) has developed a new process for awarding available variances in schools with limited space availability.

Historically, students have been able to choose which high school they attend. The district provided this opportunity through a high school open enrollment policy that accepted all high school in-district

variances, which allow students to attend a school other than their neighborhood school. However, the addition of ninth grade students to high schools increased the number of students in those schools.

That reduced the space available for students on variances.

With the new variance process, LWSD will review each high school’s capacity each year and the projected enrollment without additional variances to deter-

mine how many in-district variances the school can accommodate. If more applications are submitted than space available, the new process, developed with input from a parent survey, will be followed.

The new process incorporates that parent feedback, giving priority for variances first to students who will have a sibling concurrently enrolled at the school,

followed by preference to students attending a split feeder who wish to attend the other high school into which their middle school feeds.

A December survey was administered to all middle school families for this input. This parent audience represents the students who will make high school decisions this spring and over the next few years.

With Lunar New Year just around the corner, the Old Fire House Teen Center (OFH) at 16510 N.E. 79th St. in Redmond will open its doors this weekend to the community to celebrate the Year of the Snake.

From 6-8 p.m. on Saturday, attendees will have the opportunity to learn about the history of Lunar New Year and some of the traditions that come with it. There will be Chinese calligraphy and painting, a red envelope exchange and a special lion dance at 6:30 p.m. followed by a question-and-answer session with the dancers.

“They definitely teach, as well as entertain,” said Brynn Ehni.

As youth chair for the Redmond Youth Partnership Advisory Committee (RYPAC), Ehni was one of about 20 teens who have been working to plan and organize the annual event, which is free and open to all ages.

Members of Redmond High School’s Asian Student Association are also supporting the event through volunteers and promotion.

By having both groups begin at the same time, Peterson said students are also able to see all of their options at once and pick the path they want.

In addition, Kolk said now that sixth grade is in the middle school, students are receiving even more consistent instruction at a crucial age as band and orchestra are every day and part of the school day. Before the grade reconfiguration, many of the music classes took place outside the regular school day and were not held on a daily basis.

Another benefit of having band begin at fourth grade has been just the opportunity for students to begin their instruments earlier.

“The excitement has been there,” he said.

Peterson said they have been fortunate that LWSD officials and administration have supported this shift in the program as he does not believe students can be whole and healthy without the arts.

His fellow music instructors agreed.

Kolk said students gain confidence through performing and are required to own their abilities as they cannot fake whether or not they practiced.

“You can’t lie about it,” he said.

Ferguson added that music classes also teach students how to accept others just as they are and support each other in playing because everyone is in the same boat.

Is it important to feed kids organic food?

StatePoint News Service

The nutritional choices you make for your children are crucial, setting the stage for good health and good habits for years to come. So if you’ve heard about the benefits of organic food, you may be wondering if it’s worth the extra expense, especially if you’re on a budget.

According to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), which recently weighed in on the subject of organic food for the first time, what’s most important is that children eat a variety of fruits, vegetables,

lean meats, whole grains and low-fat or fat-free dairy products, whether those are conventionally or organically grown.

Organic foods do have lower levels of pesticides and drug-resistant bacteria, says Dr. Thomas K. McInerny, president of the AAP. “That may be important for kids because young children are more vulnerable to chemicals, but we simply don’t have the scientific evidence to know if the difference will affect a person’s health over a lifetime,” says McInerny.

Both organic and conven-

tionally grown foods have the same vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, proteins, lipids and other nutrients that are important for children’s health.

“If you’re on a budget, don’t buy the more expensive organic option if it’s going to reduce your family’s overall intake of healthy foods like fresh produce,” advises McInerny. “It’s better for kids to eat five servings of conventionally grown produce a day than for them to eat one serving of organic vegetables.”

Families can also be selective in choosing particular organic foods to stretch their budget. The Environmental Working Group has created a

book, blanket or other comfort item. For older children, be honest — shots can pinch or sting, but not for long. Remind them that shots help keep them healthy.

Ask your child’s doctor any questions you have about vaccines. You may even want to ask about cooling or numbing the area of your child’s arm or leg before the shots.

Distract your child with a toy, a story, a song or something interesting in the room.

Make eye contact with your child and smile, talk softly or sing. Hold your child tightly on your lap if you can. Take deep breaths with an older child to help “blow out” the pain.

After the shot, hug, cuddle and praise your child. For babies, swaddling, breastfeeding or a bottle may offer quick relief. Comfort and reassure older children if they cry.

“Read the Vaccine Information Sheets from your doctor so you know what to expect after the shots,” said Dr. Melinda Wharton, Deputy

Shopper’s Guide that rates the level of pesticides in produce.

Their guide indicates that conventionally grown onions, sweet corn and pineapples have relatively low pesticide rates, making them safer to purchase. If you can budget a few extra dollars to spend on groceries, opt for organic apples and celery, which are among the most pesticideladen crops.

According to the AAP, organic milk is not healthier for kids than conventional milk, but parents should make sure all milk they purchase is pasteurized.

You can find nutrition tips for kids at www.healthychildren.org.

D r. S te p h a n i e S u & D r. Pu r va M e rc h a n t

Director, National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. “Some children have pain or swelling where a shot was given, a rash or a fever. These reactions are usually mild and resolve on their own without needing treatment.”

If you notice redness, soreness or swelling from the shot, place a clean, cool washcloth on the area. If your child runs a fever, try a cool sponge bath.

You can also use a non-aspirin pain reliever if your doctor says it’s OK. Some children eat less, sleep more or act fussy for a day after they get shots. Make sure your child gets plenty to drink. If you’re worried about anything, call your doctor.

“Shots can be stressful,” said Dr. Wharton. “But you can ease your child’s discomfort.

And keeping your child up to date on vaccines is the best way to protect against vaccinepreventable diseases.”

Luke Blankenbeckler says that shooting the ball is paramount to Bear Creek’s basketball success.

Defense, teamwork, selflessness and unity have been crucial components to the Grizzlies’ 7-0 start in their 2B Sea Tac League campaign, but putting the ball up to the hoop from a distance is at the top of the list.

Blankenbeckler certainly isn’t shy to shoot 3-pointers, either. The 6-foot junior guard holds the Bear Creek record with 184 so far, including 76 in his freshman year and 43 so far this season.

“Everyone shoots on our team,” said Collin Feight, a 6-3 junior guard who’s averaging a team-high 12.3 points a game this season.

His game high is 24 in a 77-41 victory over Auburn Adventist on Jan. 22. Blankenbeckler is averaging 11.1 points a game and scored 21 points in a 57-30 victory over Seattle Lutheran on Jan. 8.

“We have a lot of depth, we play around nine guys,” Feight added. “We focus a lot on defense and just try to score as much as we can.”

Eighth-year Grizzly coach Scott Moe said that the scoring should increase when junior Jesse Leuenberger returns after sitting out a host of games with a foot injury.

Under Moe’s tutelage, Bear Creek has won the league championship the

Bear Creek’s Collin Feight, left, and Luke Blankenbeckler have helped lead the Grizzlies to a 7-0 league record. ANDY NYSTROM, Redmond Reporter last six years, the tri-district title four out of the last five years and has placed third at state once and fifth at state twice.

“We’ve had a really nice run,” Moe said, noting that this year’s team is an intense group. “I’ve had to finish practice before our allotted time was done almost every day for the last month. The kids are just working so hard in practice. It’s a good group: they’re fun, they’re crazy.”

And they’re ready to make up for last year’s 47-46 season-ending loss

to Wahkiakum in the onegame regionals round of the 2B state tournament.

“We learned that you’ve got to bring it every game and all our guys didn’t bring it that game. We didn’t play that well,” Blankenbeckler said. “We’ve just been making sure we hard every day, so we can get better and get back there (to state).”

Blankenbeckler, who has grown from 5-8 as a freshman to 6 feet now, said that his goal is to share the ball with his teammates en route to Bear Creek victories.

Moe feels that Blankenbeckler is both a solid shooter and leader.

“He’s a great competitor — he absolutely hates to lose. We’ve had some games where it got pretty tight this year and he just hits big shot after big shot,” Moe said.

As for Feight, the coach said that the lefty is shooting well from his guard position, but is also effective at finishing his shots on the inside. Moe added that about two thirds of the team’s set plays are designed for Feight, who has also

made an impact on defense.

Moe is also a big contributor to the team’s success, according to Feight and Blankenbeckler. The coach is just as intense as his players, the duo notes.

“He makes it seem more than a high school program, kind of like a college program. He makes everyone very accountable — showing up on time and working hard every day,” Blankenbeckler said.

Added Feight: “He provides great leadership. He gives us motivation to work hard.”
