While Cirque du Soleil’s run of “Amaluna” at Marymoor Park in un-incorporated King County outside of Redmond provides the area with a few months’ worth of entertain-ment, there are other benefits to having the Cirque in town.

“Amaluna,” which will be in town

through March 24, could infuse about $10 million to $15 million into the local community.

Jamie Reilly, company manager for the show, said the money covers various expenses including local taxes, fuel costs, site rental fees and accommodations for performers and workers while they are in town.

The world is changing on a regular basis, and policy needs to keep up with that, says Congress-woman Suzan DelBene.

The United States needs comprehensive immigration reform, “it will help us get on a better path,” she told a group of local high-tech business leaders during a roundtable discussion on Wednesday afternoon at Concur Technologies in Redmond.

“I think we need a system that works for everybody,” said the First Congressional District representative, noting that Congress needs to pinpoint what the costs are and make sure that people understand the reform. It’s not just for businesses searching for high-skilled workers, but for people who are looking at coming to the United States.

This week, DelBene spent time with local college students, business leaders in the life sciences and biotech worlds, farm-ers in Whatcom County

and representatives from large companies and small start-ups in Red-mond.

People have been absorbed in their con-versations with her about immigration reform — which has been described as “an earned path to

citizenship” — and she’s coming away from the experience on a positive level.

“I think everyone shares the desire to make sure that we have reform in place and that we have an immigration system that works across our

country,” she said. “Every-body is definitely excited to see Congress moving on (it). I’m encouraged that we’re having a bipar-tisan conversation and hopeful that with people being engaged and with

Congresswoman suzan delBene, right, visited Concur Technologies in Redmond on Wednesday afternoon to discuss the need for high-skilled workers and the local economic benefits of comprehensive immigration reform.

By SenS. Rodney Tom and Tim Sheldon

Here’s a question we have never heard from a con-stituent: “Why can’t you be more partisan and divisive and forget about getting things done?”

Believe it or not, the state Democratic Party is saying just that. In a resolution adopted at its recent central committee meeting in Olympia, the state party charged us with not reflecting “Democratic values” and being “disloyal” to the party.

Why? Because in December we openly recognized the fact that neither Democrats nor Republicans in the state Senate possessed the 25 votes needed to effectively govern. We under-stand that it is the role of political parties to put politics before all else, but as elected officials and leaders, we have a higher responsibility. We have to get things done.

As the two Democratic members of the Senate’s new Majority Coalition Caucus, we find this accusa-tion of “disloyalty” to be small-minded, petty and factually untrue. We have never betrayed our core beliefs, and regardless of what some self-important potentates in Olympia and Seattle pronounce, we are still proud Democrats.

We have served our respective legislative districts for many years now. The people in our local communities know us and know that we are committed to repre-senting them. We work for them, not a political party.

If you look at the choices made by voters in our districts, we are right in line on social issues, taxes, the need for education reform and a responsible budget.

The messages our con-stituents have sent are very clear: Fund and improve our educa-tion system, balance the budget without new taxes, and get our families back to work. Appropriately, that has been the focus of our coalition since the 2013 legislative session started in mid-January: jobs, educa-tion and the budget.

Exactly what part of encouraging job creation, creating a quality, well-funded education system and producing a sustainable, balanced budget is a betrayal of Democratic values?

We owe it to the people who have repeatedly chosen to send us to the Capitol, and to the people of this state, to represent them and to work effectively with legisla-tors of both parties to solve problems.

When political partisanship flies in the face of what the majority of our constituents want, we side with the people, not the party. Our districts voted overwhelm-ingly in support of a two-thirds majority requirement to raise taxes. So does siding with the 64 percent of Washingtonians who voted for Initiative 1185 in November upset some of the extreme elements of the party? Perhaps. Will that deter us from doing what we know is right for this state’s hard-working taxpayers? Of course not.

As far as our loyalty is concerned, we are loyal to the principles we have always held and to the constituents who have sent us to Olympia. We are not switching sides. We always have, and always will, be on the side of the people we represent, and side with them over any political party.

Sen. Rodney Tom, D-Bellevue, is Senate Majority Leader and represents the 48th Legislative District, which includes Redmond. Sen. Tim Sheldon, D-Potlatch, is Senate President Pro Tempore and has been elected as a Democrat to the Legislature nine times.

We’re proud democrats

who represent our districts, not a party

ouR TuRN

Sounding off on ReSPeCT, homelessI felt compelled to comment on articles in your Feb.

15 paper. The RESPECT program to me seemed more like a

probe/reality show wannabe. Where is the respect for privacy and for efficient use of educational time and resources. More videos with less precious educational time? We pay our teachers to teach, not be forced to follow the latest whatever fad. The article on building resilience may have been more of an ad, but it was where the RESPECT program should have been.

More disturbing was the article on homeless-ness, not because of homelessness, but the definition thereof.

I have known people who lived in hotels/motels/boarding homes because that was the family busi-ness. Very good homes. Shared homes only means shared expenses; nothing wrong with that. Substan-dard homes doesn’t mean the family structure is bad. Besides, what is substandard?

What really upset me was the reference to trailer parks/campgrounds as homeless, somehow evoking the term “trailer trash”; no respect there. In the last three years of travel RVing, I have seen many different camp/RV/trailer areas. I have watched 20-30 children get off school buses into the welcoming arms of their parents. I have seen three generations making do with what they could afford, but by no means homeless or unhappy. Yes, I have seen an occasional “trailer trash” family, but even they had support from neighbors.

What struck me the most in the last years were the couples who had to sell their homes, traveling about to look for work, some homeschooling, others perhaps leaving children with relatives, but the best was a family of three girls, husband and wife, who we got to know ever so briefly. The husband worked bringing gas to construction machinery. He had a SOLID job, but with the recession, it took him further than he could travel home each night. So for two years, the family would be living near his work. Yes, the girls missed their old friends (now in a new school) and the mom missed her more permanent neighbors, but they had DAD every night! The five of them, when homework and dishes were done, were out playing in any of the open RV spots. They would be very upset to be called HOMELESS, but would prefer the RESPECT of their resiliency!

I firmly support and applaud groups like Friends of Youth, but I really applaud families who make tough choices to remain together and off government/charity programs. That is my true respect. Barbara Dickson, Redmond

i want my vote backWhere do we line up to get a vote back? Those of us

who voted for Rodney Tom last time understood him to be a Democrat. He said he was. In a Democratic district it made sense to say that you were one, too, if you wanted to get elected. Now he is the “Democrat” leading the state senate Republicans in their assaults on

minimum wage, people who are sick and educators. He got my vote under false pretense. That won’t hap-pen again.David Wobker, Redmond

What’s in our food?As a concerned citizen and someone who is pursu-

ing a passion for everything food and activist-related, I believe we have the right to know what is in the food we are providing for our families, as well as how that food was produced.

There are no long-term studies showing the lasting effects of genetically engineered food on animals, humans and our planet, but evidence suggests that there are significant risks associated with genetically engineered food because of the widespread use of pesticides that go along with these crops. Do we really want 2,4-D, a chemical component found in Agent Orange and also in some of Monsanto’s pesticides, on the loose in our soil and — even worse — in our bodies?

Organizations like Food & Water Watch are calling for labeling genetically engineered foods in Washing-ton. It’s time that we put public health and the health of our planet ahead of greedy corporations. I deserve the right to know what I’m feeding my family and am asking for our government officials and residents of Washington to support the recently qualified WA I-522 ballot initiative in November this year.Rachel Tomczek, Redmond

Hamid Ali is living the American dream.

He moved to the United States from Islamabad, Pakistan in 2003 to attend the University of Maryland, where he received a master’s degree in marketing in 2005 and a master’s in business administration in 2007. He got married and moved to Redmond with his wife in January 2009 when she was offered a software engineer position with Microsoft Corp. Upon their arrival, Ali applied for marketing positions with several companies but nothing came from them.

“I was so pissed and so wor-ried about my future,” he said.

Feeling discouraged, Ali called an uncle living on the East Coast who suggested he try real estate. Ali received his real estate license in May 2009 and after interviewing with a number of companies in the area, started working at the John L. Scott Real Estate office in downtown Redmond.

Despite now being em-ployed, things weren’t looking

up for Ali initially. He only made one sale that year and was upset and disappointed with himself. Things began improving for him in 2010, in which he made 15-17 sales, putting him in the top 15 per-cent of sales in the company, which has about 3,100 agents. Ali received the John L. Scott President’s Award for this achievement. The next year told the same story and Ali received his second President’s Award.

For 2012, the 33-year-old received the company’s Presi-dent’s Elite Award for being in the top 2 percent in sales. Ali made almost 30 sales last year, bringing in $11 million to $12 million. He said his goal is to make the company’s top 1 per-cent within two or three years.

“People really supported me and I’m really thankful to my community,” he said.

Ali said the thing about real estate is that it “is all about connections” and getting your name out there. Once he real-ized this, he began building those connections and getting his name out there by getting involved in the community.

He joined the Pakistan

Association of Greater Seattle (PAGS) in late summer of 2009 and was later named the youngest board member for the organization. Ali is also an active member of the Muslim Association of Puget Sound (MAPS) in Redmond and be-came involved in The Citizens Foundation and was part of a team that raised money to build nine schools in Pakistan.

Through his involvement in these various organizations, Ali has helped bring well-known politicians, entertain-ers, athletes and religious leaders from Pakistan to the Seattle area to meet with the local community. Some of those names include former Pakistani president Pervez Musharraf, who served from 2001 to 2008, and Imran Khan, a current Pakistani poli-tician and former cricketer.

By being part of these high-profile visits, Ali was able to get his name out in the community, creating more visibility for his professional life.

“Every single event, I got involved somehow,” Ali said. “I didn’t want to miss any op-portunity.”

Since The British Pantry opened in 1978, it has gone through a number of expansions to include Neville’s Restaurant and The Three Lions Pub.

And this year, the family run business will be expanding beyond its downtown Redmond loca-tion as Three Lions will be opening two new locations this spring: One at 23525 N.E. Novelty Hill Rd., A-101 on Redmond Ridge and one at 10111 Main St. in downtown Bothell.

Alvia Redman, who took over running things with her brother Neville after their mother Mavis “semi-retired,” said Three Lions was the newest addition to the company. The pub opened in 2006 after the dress shop that previously

occupied the space at 8115 161st Ave. N.E. closed.

“It was something me and my brother had always dreamed about,” she said about opening a pub.

Redman said when her mother started the Pantry, it fulfilled a need in the community and gave British ex-pats a place to go that reminded them of home. Three Lions was a continuation of this, fill-

ing a different need in the community. While a lot of the clientele is in their 30s, Redman said their demographics range from mid-20s to 60s. The pub also brings in soccer fans as they air matches every week.

“They will all be talking and getting along,” Redman said about the customers who frequent the pub, add-ing that they are her favor-

ite part of Three Lions. “It’s just fun to walk in here.”

She likened Three Lions to “Cheers” as they have a number of regulars who all know each other by name and will even bring in cards for people to sign when it’s someone’s birthday. They are also always welcom-ing and willing to pull newcomers into the fold, Redman said.

Andrew Pollock has

worked at Three Lions for almost three years and said this family atmosphere, where people will buy Christmas presents for each other and gather to raise a glass to a regular who recently died, is his favorite thing about the pub. Having grown up traveling back and forth be-tween Scotland and Seattle, he said pubs in the United Kingdom are often local gathering spots and the pub owners and bartenders develop relationships with their regulars. For Pollock, Three Lions is the closest he has ever seen this type of atmosphere stateside, adding that he has gotten to know their regulars so well that when he sees a familiar car pull up, he can have that customer’s drink ready for them before they even walk in the door.

“That’s part of the relationship you hope to develop with your clien-tele,” he said.

Pollock will be managing the Three Lions in Bothell and said developing these types of relationships will

be hard in a new location, but he is looking forward to a new challenge.

Like the current Three Lions in Redmond, the Bothell location will be 21 and older. Redman said they plan to keep the same hours, opening from 11:30 a.m. to 11 p.m. on week-days and extending their hours to 1 a.m. on week-ends. However because downtown Bothell is near the University of Washing-ton, Bothell and Cascadia Community College, she said they may extend their hours later on the weekend for the student crowd.

On Redmond Ridge, Redman said the new Three Lions will be open to all ages. The pub will be separated into two rooms upon entry, with an under-age area on one side and a 21 and older area on the other. Each area will have the same menu.

Redman said they chose to do this to accommodate the population on Red-mond Ridge.

“There are more families up there,” she said.

Redmond City Council member Stilin will seek re-election

Redmond City Council member John Stilin an-nounced that he will run for a second term in the November 2013 elections.

“I am proud to call Red-mond my home,” said Sti-lin, “but I am even more proud of the progress we’ve made in my last four years on the Redmond City Council. I intend to continue on a path that preserves the uniqueness of Redmond while embracing change, and ensure Redmond is a safe, culturally rich and economically vibrant city. I want all citizens of our community to be proud to call Redmond ‘home.’”

During Stilin’s first term on the council, he sup-ported city plans to focus development in its two ur-ban centers while preserv-ing neighborhoods.

Between the state Sen-ate’s passage of school-safety and construction proposals, public hearings in the Senate budget com-mittee on two education-improvement bills and visits from Redmond-based students, the focus on education in recent weeks is just what Sen. Andy Hill of Redmond had in mind for the 2013 legislative session.

On Feb. 11, the Senate passed legislation that would require school districts to add alarm sys-tems connected directly with law enforcement and added safety-related design requirements when constructing or remodeling schools. It also authorized the sale of $475 million in bonds to fund the School Con-struction Assistance Pro-gram in the state’s next two-year budget cycle. That program provides funding for new buildings and upgrades.

“This is an important first step towards making our schools safer,” said Hill (45th District). “I’m looking forward to mak-ing progress inside the

classroom, by increasing the ‘outputs’ of our state’s education system. As I continue crafting the new state budget, I am focused on making sure not only that K-12 education is amply provided for, but that we have strong early-learning programs and an accessible higher-educa-tion system.”

Hill was also pleased to visit with more than 90 fourth- and fifth-graders from Explorer Commu-nity School and Sunrise Elementary in Redmond who were in Olympia for a tour of the state Capitol.

It’s all about education for Redmond’s Sen. Hill

(NewsUSA) — Ask most seniors if they want to age independently in their own homes, and they likely will say yes. Surveys show 95 percent of people over the age of 75 desire to age in place, and about a quarter of seniors live alone.

These numbers are just the beginning. Baby Boomers are now turn-ing 65 at a rate of about 8,000 a day, according to AARP. But what if you’re the adult child of one of those independent-minded seniors? What if, like Alison

Jacobson, whose Safety Mom.com blog has a loyal following, you find yourself frequently worrying about your parents’ well-being?

“While aging-in-place is the goal for most seniors, how do you, as the adult child, ensure sure they’re safe?” she asks.

Here are some tips for dealing with the situation:

• Preventing falls. Falls are a leading cause of in-jury and death for seniors. Like the worry Jacobson

describes, a new survey by market researchers Toluna found that a far greater number of caregivers were concerned about seniors being injured than seniors themselves were (76.1 percent versus 33 percent). One simple first step is to remove all scatter rugs and make sure electric cords don’t extend into high-traffic areas.

• Upgrading lights. While seniors sometimes may be reluctant to admit it, vision diminishes with age. So, brighten lights in kitchen work areas to reduce the

they have some sense of normalcy while on tour. With 120 permanent workers — 52 artists and 68 support staff — staying in Redmond, “Amaluna” is more than just a travel-ing show. Reilly described them as “a small village” complete with generators, schools and four full-time traveling chefs.

“We buy food locally to feed 120 people,” she said, adding that the chefs pre-pare about 400 meals per day for everyone.

“Amaluna” also relies on local support. Reilly said they hire 200-300 people locally to work as ushers, janitors, prep cooks, recep-tionists and other customer service positions. These workers — though tem-porary — are vital to the “Amaluna” operation, she said, as they would not be able to set up for the show

in the short timeframe they have between shows. Reilly said the local staff play a large role in their operation

because they have local knowledge and can help with logistics such as providing guests with directions and knowing what’s in town.

“They know where to go to buy the stuff (we need),” Reilly said. “We don’t have that local knowl-edge.”

In addition to the direct financial impact “Amaluna” has on the commu-nity, the show also brings in money through show goers frequenting local shops and restaurants.

“We have defi-nitely seen an increase in restaurant traffic since the show started Jan. 31,” said Redmond Town Center’s

senior marketing manager Christina Henning. “With Cirque du Soleil and other regional events occur-ring almost annually, our restaurants have learned what to expect and are well prepared for additional traffic with extra staffing, product, etc.”

She said a number of retailers and restaurants are also offering special dis-counts to “Amaluna” ticket holders throughout the show’s run. For example, customers can present their “Amaluna” ticket at Macy’s any time for a one-day savings pass. At Matts’ Ro-tisserie and Oyster Lounge, ticket holders can receive a free appetizer on the day of the show they are attend-ing. All special offers and restrictions are listed on the Redmond Town Center web site and distributed to patrons onsite at the Grand Chapiteau.

Because “Amaluna”

brings in people from all over the Puget Sound re-gion, Henning said it gives them an opportunity to “introduce Redmond Town Center, and Redmond as a whole, to an audience beyond (their) typical trade area.”

Erika Vandenbrande, economic development manager for the City of Redmond, agreed. She said out-of-town visitors will often take the opportunity to make a night of their trip to see “Amaluna,” going out

to dinner beforehand, do some shopping and maybe spend the night at a local hotel, which is very benefi-cial for Redmond.

“People begin to un-derstand a bit about what Redmond is a bit more,” she said.

Vandenbrande added that although Marymoor Park is in King County, it is a key asset for Red-mond and the Eastside as it provides entertainment, delight and a vibrancy to the area.

risk of burns and cuts.• Tech fix. The latest

technology is the answer to substantial research high-lighting the importance of staying connected for both seniors and caregivers. Har-vard University research-ers found that the odds of mental decline doubled for

seniors with no social ties, for example, while Toluna’s survey looked at the emo-tional toll on those trying to help loved ones age in place.

“For caregivers, ease of communication with the seniors they love relieves stress, reduces guilt and builds rich relationships,” says expert on successful

aging Adriane Berg.Enter the new CareLine

home safety telephone system from VTech (www.vtechphones.com/Care Line). The product includes three individual pieces designed for optimal us-ability, even for those with vision, hearing and dexter-ity issues. The pieces are the corded base phone with

Congress making this a priority, we can make progress and get some legislation in place.”

At the Redmond roundtable, Sailesh Chutani, president and CEO of MobiSante, offered the suggestion that local college stu-dents with hi-tech-job aspirations and green cards be given the op-portunity to work for a start-up business of their choice.

“That could really get them involved in the next generation of Microsoft,” he said.

Gordon Bluechel, vice president of operations and admin-istration for Data I/O, said that his company employs workers from other countries and he likes diversity in the workplace.

Outside of the busi-ness realm, Bluechel added that it’s also “cool” that by living in Redmond, his children interact with school-mates of different ethnicities.

“He’s got me into play-ing the classics again,” Hopsoh said, adding that Sylvan’s knowledge of the old games has made him the “cool kid” among the other parents, who remember playing those games as kids.

Hopsoh said gaming for Sylvan has been a source of creativity as he will draw scenes from the games he plays and come up with his own charac-ters.

Sylvan, who attended Game Nite with his dad dressed up as Mario, said he enjoys playing video games “because there’s lots of cool stuff.”

“I like the way (the characters) attack and all the cool music,” the pint-sized plumber said.

SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE

While the father-son duo view video games as entertainment, DigiPen senior executive Ray-mond Yan said they can also be used as a learning tool in the classroom. He will be holding a workshop for educators at EMP on Saturday to show them how they can use game development as a learning vehicle in multiple disciplines.

For example, students can learn about the hero’s journey by examining video games’ story lines.

Yan said including video games in lesson plans builds students’ en-thusiasm using technol-ogy they are most likely familiar with navigating.

Other highlights of Game Nite included a test arcade featuring the latest projects from DigiPen students. GeekGirlCon — a local community organization celebrating and honoring women in all areas of “geek culture” including science and technology, comics, arts, literature, game play and game design — was also onsite with a crafts table where people were able to create perler bead designs of their favorite 8-bit video game characters.

Alyssa Jones, manager of gaming for GeekGirl-Con, said they have done several EMP events in the past and Game Nite in particular was a great fit for them “since it’s very geeky.”

MORE THAN WHAT MEETS THE EYE

Another highlight of the evening were the spotlight talks, which were presented by Di-giPen and featured video game professionals.

Yan and University of Washington, Bothell Center for Serious Play executive director Jason Pace spoke about what it takes to be a video game designer. The two men told a packed JBL Theatre that there is a big dif-ference between playing video games and design-ing them.

“There’s so much stuff that goes into game design,” said Pace, a former Microsoft em-ployee and lead producer of Halo Wars for Xbox 360. “Education is really important.”

Yan added that the gaming industry is con-stantly changing.

“We don’t know what it’s going to be like 10 years from now. We don’t know what it’ll be like two years from now,” he said. “Our success is always going to be tied to innovation.”

Yan said events such as Game Nite and the Art of Video Games exhibit are important in con-necting game developers with their fans and giving people the opportunity to learn about what it really takes to create a video game. He said the exhibit will also be of interest for those in the industry.

After walking through it, Yan said he learned a lot about the background of various video games and why things are the way they are.

“Nothing in a game we make is by chance,” he said.

I was going to toss this old satellite dish, but I’ll bet I can use it to pick up signals from

Friends of Youth has announced a re-addition to the youth service agency’s team: Howard (Terry) Hall.

Hall, a Sam-mamish resident, is rejoining the Friends of Youth board after a year hiatus. He practices litigation, toxic tort and employment law

at Wolfstone, Panchot & Bloch in down-town Seattle. Hall is a past trustee of the Washington Defense Lawyers and serves on the King County Su-perior Court Panel of Arbitrators.

“We are excited that Terry has decided to rejoin

our board of directors,” said Terry Pottmeyer, president

and CEO of Friends of Youth. “His leadership and talents will continue to be valuable assets to Friends of Youth.”

Friends of Youth provides programs that encourage individual growth and promote constructive rela-tionships. These programs focus on the following main areas: residential services, homeless youth services and youth and family services. In 2012, Friends

of Youth helped more than 5,146 young people and their families.

With 60 years of experi-ence, national accreditation and 21 sites in 17 cities — including Redmond — the agency provides safe places to live and emotional sup-port for youth and families in challenging circumstanc-es. For more information, visit www.friendsofyouth.org.

Genie lift equipment pro-vides solutions to ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex for a variety of application needs on a daily basis. Genie scissor and boom lifts are regularly used as elevated platforms for cameras and camera operators to tape and broadcast sporting events at the sports complex. The lifts are also used to perform

ongoing maintenance at the 255-acre site. Additionally, Terex-branded light towers will light up popular run Disney races that take place through-out the theme parks each year.

To commemorate the sponsorship, Terex has custom painted a new Genie S-60X telescopic boom as a way to inaugurate the alliance. It is

a one-of-a-kind airbrushed boom by renowned artist Tim Norris. The boom’s unique sports-themed motif is inter-woven with special Disney-in-spired details that highlight the relationship between Terex and ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex. The boom will be on display at the sports complex when not in use.
