For 28 years, MichaelAmouri worked as atelevision producer,
most recently at DiscoveryCommunications in SilverSpring, commuting from hishome in Vienna where he raisedhis daughter. A Vienna residentsince 1985, Amouri coachedJames Madison High School JVbasketball for nine years andloves the community he lives in.
Now, Amouri is not just acommunity supporter but acommunity business owner, aswell. With no fanfare, Amouriopened the doors to CaffeAmouri, an artisan-inspired cof-
fee house named in honor of hisparents, on July 14.
“I always liked coffee,” saidAmouri. “What I really want todo, what my goal is, is to be thetop coffee house in the area. Ihope the flavor of each kind ofbeans comes out so people willsee what coffee should tastelike.”
ABOUT 15 YEARS AGO,Amouri was sitting around withfriends and commenting thatthere ought to be a local placewhere you could get a good cupof coffee, high-quality coffee,that is. Eight years ago, hebought a popcorn popper for
Michael Amouri, owner ofCaffe Amouri on ChurchStreet, is passionate aboutgreat coffee and the beansthat go into it.

Patrick Henry Library rocked on the eveningof July 15. Tot-rocked that is, when localkiddie-rock favorite Rocknoceros broughtits live music to the library in a free inter-
active performance. One hundred and four peopleregistered, from moms, dads and grandparents withinfants, babies, toddlers and preschoolers. There waslots of clapping, dancing, and even thumb-sucking,although it was just the little ones who engaged inall three pastimes.
“We’re total Rocknoceros groupies,” said SusanLester of Vienna, mother of Hannah, 20 months, andJosiah, three-and-a-half years old. “We see them justabout everywhere they play. The kids love them andmom loves them.” Coach Cotton, Boogie WoogieBennie and Williebob of Rocknoceros each signedthe children’s guitar.
Like the Beatles, the Stones and Elvis, Rocknoceroshas a loyal fan base. Some, like the Lesters, make apoint of hitting up local Rocknoceros performanceswhenever they can. Others, like rising second-graderShane Woldow of Vienna, find inspiration inRocknoceros music. Shane told his mother he wantsto go to the Air and Space Museum to see LuckyLindbergh’s plane after hearing Rocknoceros sing anode to Lindbergh the aviator.
“We have all their CDs,” said Shane. “Rocknoceroshas good songs. We’ve seen them lots of times.”
ROCKNOCEROS’ MUSIC educates about history,as in “Virginia,” with Patrick Henry; good hygiene,as in “Brush Your Teeth”; a mournful “Wish We usedthe Metric System,” and the most tragic in theRocknoceros repertoire, “Pluto,” a tearjerker aboutthe planet that no longer is.
The Beatles’ “Baby, You Can Drive My Car” was ahit with its beep-beeps.
Coach Cotton, Boogie Woogie Bennie and Williebobare local boys still living in Northern Virginia. Nearlylife-long friends, Rocknoceros performs twenty showsa month, mostly in the D.C. area but as far away asCalifornia, as well.
The trio appears to be playing many instrumentssimultaneously by way of set-ups that combine dif-
ferent elements of music-making instrumentation.Coach Cotton wears a whistle around his neck andrattles a tambourine quite a bit, too.
Rocknoceros sells its three CDs at its concerts andevery month 10 percent of sales go to the group’scharity of the month. The charities are suggested byfans.
The concert was co-sponsored by Patrick HenryLibrary and Friends of the George Mason RegionalLibrary. For Patrick Henry’s schedule of events, go tohttp://host6.evanced.info/fairfaxco/evanced/eventcalendar.asp?EventType=ALL&Libnum=16.
Coming up on Wednesday, July 28, at 10:30 a.m.is “Rainforests Alive,” a live animal program forschool-aged children presented by Reptiles Alive. Thisspecial event is co-sponsored by the Friends of theGeorge Mason Regional Library and registration isrequired.

Town receives HistoricallyLaw Interest Rate
The Town of Vienna received a 2.49% interest rateon the sale of its Series 2010 Public ImprovementBonds, which is more than 1.5% below the lowestrate the Town has received on a public sale in thelast 15 years.
This historically low cost of capital can be attributedin part to the Town’s recently received AAA Standard& Poor’s and Aaa Moody’s bond ratings. The AAA andAaa bond ratings enable the Town to sell bonds at morefavorable interest rates compared with those of mu-nicipalities not so highly rated, resulting in substantialsavings for Vienna taxpayers over the life of the bonds.Other localities that share exclusively AAA bond rat-ings in the region include Alexandria City and Arling-ton, Fairfax, and Loudon Counties.
The Town’s receipt of a 2.49% interest rate canalso be attributed to the fact that the bond sale in-cluded Build America Bonds. These bonds, part ofthe American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of2009, are a new type of taxable bond that receive a
subsidy from the Federal government, thereby low-ering the effective interest rate paid by the Town.

Week in Vienna
The new building of greenand gold at the corner ofGlyndon Street and MapleAvenue has been a hottopic since the exterior wascompleted. Some love it,some don’t, even thoughthe building is not yetoccupied by tenants …
What do you think of the new buildingat Maple and Glyndon?
Viewpoints
—Donna Manz
Lucia Bacon,Vienna
“I agree with Roy Baldwin. Ithink it’s totally ugly. The styledoes not go with the rest of Vienna,and it’s located in the wrong place.I don’t like the colors; they’re aneyesore. The design sticks out like asore thumb. It just doesn’t go withthe other buildings in Vienna. I alsoquestion whether they have enoughparking spaces.”
Linda Colbert,Vienna
“I think it’s a very interestingbuilding. I like the colors.They’re subdued, different. Ithink it wouldn’t fit in on ChurchStreet, but, on Maple Avenue, itadds character.”
Donte Williams,works in Vienna
“It’s kind of wild and I don’tlike it ... and I’m an artist, agraphic artist.”
Victor Mendes,owner, Vienna Vintner
“I contemplated moving there.As a business owner, you see thatit stands out, draws attention toyour business. I think it’s a nice-looking building. I like theoversized windows in front. Itdoesn’t fit in with the nearbyarchitectural structures, though.It’s a big buzz around town, andopinion seems to be split on thedesign. And I have to ask, isparking going to be an issue?”
Alexa Uhrig,Vienna
“I think it’s hideous, especiallycompared to the more traditionalbrick, small-town-lookingarchitecture. I like how Vienna isall brick. The bank next door isnice-looking. Maybe, withlandscaping, the new buildingwill look better than it doesnow.”

With a cast andcrew of 80,colorful costumes and
memorable songs, The Alli-ance Theatre presentsDisney’s “Mulan Jr.” Theshow runs two weekends atMountain View High School,5775 Spindle Court (behindGlory Days Grill) inCentreville.
“It’s a wonderful show forfamilies,” said DirectorMaggie Swan. “It has lots ofgreat music and dances, andpeople will see some reallytalented kids.”
Mulan is a teen-age girlwho lives in ancient China.Then, a girl’s destiny was toget married and people hadparticular places in society. In theplay, the Huns are preparing to at-tack and take over China, so oneperson from each family must goto war. But Mulan’s father – herfamily’s only male – was alreadyinjured in war, so Mulan decidesto sneak away, pose as a boy andtake her father’s place in the Chi-nese army.
“In Chinese culture, ancestorswatch over people, so they send adragon, Mushu, to watch over theFa family – Mulan’s family – whileshe’s gone,” said Swan. “Mulanlater becomes a hero.”
THE ALL-STUDENT CAST fea-tures children, ages 8-18, from avariety of schools. “Eighty childrentried out for 40 parts,” said Swan.“And everyone involved is givingup almost every evening duringthe summer, ’til 9:30 or 10 atnight, to be here for rehearsals. I’mimpressed with their dedicationand hard work.”
Participants received acting,music and dance lessons, did the-ater games and worked on diction.They learned proper pronuncia-tion of the Chinese names in theplay, and Swan also gave them ahistory lesson so they’d better un-derstand the story.
Madison High sophomore MollyNuss, who plays Mulan, describedher as a clumsy tomboy, day-dreaming and off in her own word,yet rebellious and spunky. “I likethis role,” said Nuss. “I can reallyrelate to Mulan because she’s in
her awkward years and my par-ents are telling me the same thingsher parents are.”
Her favorite song is “Reflection,”which she sings when Mulan’sshunned by her family, after beingrejected by a matchmaker that sheangered. Said Nuss: “She’s frus-trated and wonders, ‘When willmy reflection show who I am in-side?’”
Nuss said the audience will befamiliar with the songs, from themovie, “plus we’ve added others.They’ll also like the high energyon stage and the really good char-acters.”
THE SETS for “Mulan Jr.” showa mountain and a temple, plus pa-godas for storefronts and theoutsides of homes. “Children whodidn’t want to act are helping inother ways – with lights, sets, ar-tistic direction, choreography, di-rection and stage managing,” saidSwan. “That way, they get a wholepicture of the theater.”

Opinion
As someone who pays more than $10to drive round-trip the entire lengthof the Dulles Toll Road and thenGreenway to Leesburg on my way
out to Hillsboro, I am forced to recognize thatcommuters and others will pay to drive on con-gestion-free roads.
Leaving my office in Alexandria, however, Icould soon have the choice to pay to drive inthe High Occupancy Toll Lanes on my wayaround the Beltway, then a possible futurechoice to pay either the basic rate or an up-graded rate to drive on the Dulles Toll Road,followed by the choice to drive on theGreenway or to take Route 7 out into outerLoudoun. Could that add up to $15 or moreeach way? (Already during rush hour, it costs$5.25 each way on the Greenway, $4.55 offpeak; and it’s $1.75 on the Dulles Toll Road.)
Toll lanes are also on the drawing board for395 and 95, places where effective means (sluglines) are in place to gather enough (three)people in a car to qualify as “High Occupancy,”the current qualifier for using the existing HOVlanes. You can’t buy your way onto those lanesat this point.
Choosing all the tolls would be well beyondmost people’s means in anything but an emer-gency. But others will be able to consider thecost a business expense, or will be able to valuetheir own time highly enough to pay thefreight.
The real concern is that we aren’t using thefuture tolls to create funding for the broadtransportation initiatives that we need to thriveeconomically. The current model of public-pri-
vate partnerships allows private companies tocollect and keep all the tolls virtually forever(50 years) in exchange for building these par-ticular roads.
But knowing that the revenue stream is outthere, Virginia could issue bonds and contractthe building of the roads and toll lanes, therebyusing any surplus revenue to continue to im-prove the commonwealth’s transportation in-frastructure.
Once you admit that you’re going to chargetolls, really significant dollar amounts of tolls,you don’t need a public private partnership tomake transportation improvements happen.You can manage contractors and use the rev-enue stream to keep Virginia moving. The com-monwealth seems only to be able to stomachhigh tolls when the money is going to a pri-
vate company, not when it might go to thepublic good in the future.
Still one can only hope that 20-30 years fromnow the idea of rush hour and congestion —that we will each climb into a car one personat a time and drive on the same roads to workat the same time every day — will be as incon-ceivable as dial-up access to the internet.
Then all those extra lanes might be wideopen with little toll revenue coming in.
And we can only hope that whoever is writ-ing the contracts for these public private part-nerships has the best interests of the Common-wealth at heart and isn’t shifting the risk ofthat sort of innovation away from the privatesector while leaving them to reap the profitswithout sharing.
Maybe in 50 years, the separate HOT Laneswill serve to separate bicyclists from skate-boarders from pedestrians as old roadwaysbecome the recreational areas of the future,much as unused rail lines and former towpaths.
— Mary Kimm,
Tolls and a Transportation FixCould the links add up to $20 and more per trip?And why won’t Virginia issue bonds if it cancollect that kind of toll revenue?

A Tribute toVanessa Pham
By Gene Grubbs
The earth went into mourn-ing here one sunny summerday
A precious, lovely, bloomingflower was sadly snatchedaway
Radiant in beauty, fra-grance, sweetness and delight
To know her was to love hershe was precious in our sight
So talented and beautifuland growing more so everyday
Full of hope and promise
blessing all who came herway
Her smile, her laughter, hergreat joy, her passion and herzeal
Poetry Corner
Inspired us, delighted usand showed us love is real
But an evil darkness cameone day descending on thisplace
And trampled down thisprecious gift God gave us byHis grace
For 19 years we’ve reapedthe fruit of all her lovelycharms
But now she’s back at homewith God safe in His lovingarms.
Gene Grubbs is a New Yorkerwho wrote this poem as a tributeto the 19-year-old Vanessa Phamafter reading the story on hertragic death. Contact information:[email protected]

Vienna Swim Notebook
The Vienna National 10-11 YearOld All Stars won the District 4Championship on last Saturday,July 17 with a come from be-
hind 16-6 victory over McLean National toadvance to the Virginia State Tournamentbeginning July 23 in Louisa.
Vienna trailed for the first time in the tour-nament as McLean jumped out to a quick 4-0 lead in the top of the first inning. ButVienna bounced back to tie the game in thebottom of the first on key hits by Joey Gold-smith, David Ross and Matthew Prillaman.
McLean answered with a pair of runs togo ahead 6-4 but key defensive plays fromVienna by shortstop and leadoff hitter BlakeMachonis and a center fielder Cole Wagner(diving catch) prevented any further scor-ing by McLean. Vienna got another run inthe bottom of the second and then tied thegame on a long solo home run by NickConforti in the third.
With the game tied at 6-6, Vienna sent 15batters to the plate in the fourth inning tobreak the game open and come away witha convincing victory. Machonis and Wagnerscored twice in the inning with Goldsmith,Ross and Prillaman all contributing key RBIhits. Conforti’s single with the bases loadedsealed the win and sent Vienna Nationalback to the Virginia State Tournament wherethey represented District 4 last year in the10-year old tournament held in Luray.
VIENNA STARTED ITS RUN to the Dis-trict 4 championship, ironically, with a 10-3 win over the same McLean National teamit would later meet in the finals. Ross wasthe hitting star as he belted two, three-runhome runs and drove in seven runs asVienna jumped out early and held on be-hind the strong pitching of Pillaman andConforti. Ross got the Vienna squad goingin the first inning of that opener as he
smoked a 2-0 pitch over the centerfieldfence and into the parking lot beyond togive Vienna a 3-0 lead. After McLean scoredtwo in their at bat, Ross hit another three-run homer. From there, solid defense byVienna plus the steady pitching of Prillamanand Conforti sealed the win. Andrew Ferrarichipped in with three hits and Vienna gotsolid play from Machonis, Wagner, JaredGurdak, Ian Hawkins, Michael Hendricks,Mitchell Hollingsworth and Eli Galiano tostart their run for the District title!
NEXT UP was Great Falls and Vienna rodethe strong starting pitching of Prillaman andthe hitting of Goldsmith, who belted a firstinning two run homer to propel Vienna toan easy 11-2 victory. Prillaman also hadthree hits to go along with his strong pitch-ing, Ross had a double and drove in threeruns and Conforti had two hits to paceVienna. Goldsmith also had a double to go
with his first homer of the tournament andVienna cruised to an easy win.
Alexandria was the next opponent andafter a slow start Vienna settled down for a7-1 victory. Goldsmith homered again andalso held Alexandria scoreless in two inningsof pitching as Vienna used four differentpitchers to seal the win. In addition to Gold-smith, Machonis and Ferrari pitched welland Prillaman came in to close out the vic-tory in the last inning, sending Vienna tothe District 4 semi’s against Vienna Colonial.
Prillaman turned in a brilliant completegame with 14 strikeouts and allowed onlyone hit and one walk as Vienna rolled to an11-0 win over Colonial. Vienna jumped outto an early 6-0 lead after two innings androde the strong pitching of Prillaman forthe win to set up the final game againstMcLean National, which defeated previ-ously undefeated Vienna American, 5-1 inthe other semifinal game.
Vienna National 11’s Capture District 4
The Vienna National 10-11 All Stars swept through the District 4 Tourna-ment with five straight wins to earn a seeding at the state tournament.

two dollars at a yard sale and that was thebeginning of his coffee bean passion. Hebegan roasting his own beans and learningas much as was out there about coffee beansand roasting them.
“Coffee beans are a lot like wine,” Amourisaid. “They have characteristics based onwhere they are grown, how they are pro-cessed.” Amouri uses single-origin beans.
Once Fairfax County approves his in-house roasting machine, he will buy greenbeans from his supplier and roast his ownat Caffe Amouri.
The beans, from South America and Africa,come from an artisan coffee purveyor basedin Topeka. The company, PT Coffee, was ac-claimed as the 2009 Roaster of the Year.
“They share the same philosophy as I do,”said Amouri. “It’s a lighter roast so you cantaste the beans.”
With no advertising, no media promotion,Caffe’ Amouri opened to a steady stream oftraffic. Having a presence on popularChurch Street helps. Some customers, suchas Lee Prior, a 50-plus-year Vienna resident,had been looking forward to the openingof Caffe Amouri. When she saw a sign pro-moting the coffee house’s open doors, shestopped in for coffee and pastry while sheread the newspaper. Her coffee wasungarnished, just coffee, she called it. Andshe liked the coffee there a lot.
“I think it is important to support a lo-cally-owned business. It’s not a chain, it’s asmall Vienna business. That’s what used tomake Vienna unique, local businesses.”
Prior wasn’t the only patron who believesin supporting locally-owned businesses.Meg Thornberry, a rising Madison highschool sophomore, likes supporting localbusinesses, as well. As she was walkinghome from Madison, she, too, saw a signannouncing the shop’s opening. The pricesare less expensive than other coffee housesin Vienna, she said, and she liked that.
Being part of the community, coachinglocal sports, Amouri said he wanted to owna business in the town.
He almost signed a lease five years agobut the deal fell through. He’s been lookingfor space ever since.
“One of the things I like about Vienna isthat they strive to maintain a sense of com-munity,” Amouri said.
“I love the community we’ve got, the spe-cial events like the halloween parade. Tome, it’s neat to be part of this community.”
THE YOUNG FACES behind the counterare, not surprisingly, Madison students. Theschool is well represented by employees andcustomers at Caffe Amouri.
Amouri’s mother died one and a half yearsago and his father, who lives in Vienna, is91. When he thought of names for his newenterprise, he thought of his father whodrives down Church Street every day.
“Wouldn’t it be nice for dad to see hisname on the sign? Caffe Amouri is to honormy parents, my dad, the single most influ-ential person in my life.”
The coffee house supplements its coffee
selections with an assortment of Italian so-das made with Monin syrups, fruit coolersof pure fruit, tea and cold drinks. Theespresso machine is one of only ten built,each one hand-engineered for the 2009World Barista Championships. Amouri gotone of the ten. His pastry comes from aVienna bakery.
In the coffee house, Amouri is trying tobe as “green” as possible. His mission state-ment promotes quality, community andsustainability.
Rather than selling plastic water bottlesAmouri is offering free water refills to bik-ers who bring their own bottles in to Caffe’Amouri. Instead of using plastic stirrers,he’s going to use fettucine. And get this:The “plastic” cups really are not plastic atall but a cornstarch product. “It’s a thirdmore expensive than plastic but it biode-grades in three months.”
When Amouri talks to potential hires oryoung people, he tells them, “don’t look atthe bottom line. Do things the right wayand the bottom line will take care of itself.That’s really a personal philosophy of mine.”
A 12-ounce coffee, single-origin, sells for$1.65, 16 ounces for $1.95. A hand-pouredspecialty coffee is $2.95 for 16 ounces. Apressed pot of 32 ounces is $3.90.
A double espresso — that’s two shots – is$1.40. Among the many coffee selectionsare latte at $2.80 for 12 ounces; a 12-ouncecafé mocha is $3.20; caramel latter is $3.50for 12 ounces. The selections also come in16-ounce cups.
Caffe Amouri makes a signature drink,appropriately called Caffe Amouri. It’sesprresso steamed together with half andhalf, described by Amouri as “very smooth,creamy, almost like a liqueur.”
“Try it,” Amouri said he tells customers.“If you don’t like it, I’ll make you somethingelse.”
The Italian sodas are filtered water, car-bonated in-store, and flavored with canesugar Monin syrups. Prices are $1.85 to$2.75 for the Italian sodas. Italian creamsodas have a dollop of half and half added,and range in price from $2.25 to $3.15. Thepureed fruit smoothies are priced from$4.25 to $4.95.
Like Lee Prior, Linda Colbert of Viennawas waiting for Caffe Amouri to open.
“I saw it being built because I frequentChurch Street,” said Linda Colbert of Viennaas she and her daughter sat at a table eat-ing treats. “This place has all my favoritethings, coffee, tea and pastry.
“I’m thrilled it’s on Church Street, my fa-vorite street in town.
“This is a local business, not a chain” saidColbert. “I like to support local businesses.And I love the Madison connection.”
CAFFE’ AMOURI is located at 107 ChurchSt NE, Vienna, tel: 703-938-1623. Hourshave not yet been finalized, but currently,coffee house is open at 6 a.m. Mondaythrough Friday, and at 7 a.m. Saturday andSunday. Caffe Amouri closes at 9 p.m. week-days and has extended weekend hours.Amouri is planning on creating open micnights on weekends.
