John Stokes has become the seventh and fi nal 2012 Bel-levue City Council Member
King County Elections announced a 54-vote margin between Stokes and his opponent land-use attorney Aaron Laing following a two-day recount done by hand at the Elections offi ce
ldquoI am very pleased to have held a lead throughout the ballot count and throughout the recount actually gaining three votes in the process and being fi nally declared the winnerrdquo Stokes said in a statement
Th e vote closes what has been one of the closest races in the state and Bellevuersquos most contested election in recent memory Many predicted the race to be a tossup but few could have guessed that the margin of votes between the two candidates would never exceed 200 votes Stokes opened with a 127-vote lead on election night Nov 6 His lead was razor thin and the race appeared to be up for grabs For several weeks new results released each day drew the race closer down to a margin of 51
State law stipulates that the margin between the two candidates to necessitate a hand recount is less than 150

While dreams of Santa pop-ping down the chimney on Christmas Eve to
deliver presents were extinguished for most during childhood a select few Bellevue residents have seen St Nick trade in his sleigh for a mail truck
Until nowFor more than a decade now let-
ter carrier Bob McLean has driven around Bellevue each holiday season delivering a little Christmas
cheer while wearing a full Santa getup for two or three days But this year a local grinch complained to the US Postal Service and McLean has been banned from bringing his alter ego to work this year
ldquoTh e government is shutting me down because itrsquos a non-postal regu-lation uniformrdquo said McLean who has been with the postal service since 1971
McLean began donning the red and white when a stranger at the mall told him he looked like Santa Claus Always the crowd pleaser McLean took to the comparison went out and bought a suit and then another
When he fi rst started delivering mail in full Santa garb McLean
immediately noticed the attention He said hersquos caused traffi c jams on his route on Old Main as pass-ing drivers attempted to catch a glimpse Merchants along his route have watched for years as McLean has been the center of attention to tourists and residents alike
ldquoTh ey stop him on the corner and want group pictures with himrdquo said Brenda Archuletta manager of Amore Chocolates ldquoLittle kids ndash they just stare because they wonderrdquo
Th ey wonder because he fi ts the character Every bit Kris Kringle McLean sports a white beard and a tuft of long white hair Looking the part is no easy eff ort either He dyes his blond hair and keeps a careful

eye on the calendar when he trims the beard
The only part of the Santa look he lacks is the portly figure after losing 95 pounds
McLean has brought his alter ego to Bellevuersquos most popular Christmas attraction Snowflake Lane where he took his family a few years ago He said they were pushed aside as 50 people lined up to take pictures
Hersquos also been a big hit at the Aegis Living of Bellevue senior center He visits regularly as both Santa and mailman The residents know him well and are always excited when Santa knows their name he said
But only a few days after Thanksgiving this year he was pulled off his route by a supervisor saying some-one had complained about the uniform He didnrsquot know who he had upset or why the complaint was filed
ldquoThis was the first time I donrsquot know what hap-penedrdquo he said ldquoI donrsquot step on anyonersquos toes Be-ing Santa isnrsquot religious to me itrsquos secular Itrsquos about givingrdquo
USPS spokesman Ernie Swanson said the com-plaint came from a fellow carrier Decked out in the full on Santa suit McLean was not recognizable as a USPS employee
McLean is still shocked over the outcome He sees carriers wearing Christ-mas gear all the time Ei-ther way McLean said he will bring the Christmas cheer and he plans to don the Santa suit at work one last time Christmas Eve

One of the serious obstacles to the
improvement of our race is indiscriminate charity
ndash Andrew Carnegie (1835 - 1919)
QUOTE
OF NOTE
There is a sense of relief ndash along with a lot of smiles ndash in the region now that Boeing announced that it would build its
737 MAX in Renton and the Machinists have approved a four-year contract extension
To anyone who works or lives here or is concerned about the future of the aerospace industry in Washington state the decision seemed like a no-brainer But Boeing did look around just like it did for a 787 production plant and a new world headquarters We know how all that turned out ndash two low points on the roller coaster that is life with Boeing
So it should be clear that as Gov Chris Gre-goire has pointed out we can take nothing for granted We are in a competitive atmosphere that spans the globe for such manufacturing prizes as the production of whatrsquos been called a game-changing airliner
Th atrsquos why itrsquos so important to credit one of the key players in the talks that ultimately led to Boeingrsquos decision ndash the Machinists Th e Ma-chinists and the engineers union have been on board the statewide eff ort to keep the 737 MAX production in Washington state
Despite years of acrimony and strikes the Machinists and Boeing found common ground We all should thank them for their willingness to do whatrsquos right for everyone We like what Machinists Local 751 president Tom Wrob-lewski had to say
ldquoTh is proposed agreement with Boeing is good for our members good for the company and good for our communitiesrdquo
Of course each side benefi tted But the point is they set aside their diff erences and gave a little or a lot to reach this landmark agreement
Th atrsquos the type of leadership we demand from our political leaders in Washington DC and Olympia Our nationrsquos capital has become a bastion of do-nothings hamstrung by philoso-phies that play to the extremes leaving out all of us in the middle
So while Boeing and the Machinists have taken a critical step forward to keep the 737 MAX production in Renton we must all work to ensure the success of Gregoirersquos plan to keep the aerospace industry strong and even present in our state
We must strengthen our math and science programs at all levels of education and train or retrain workers at such important two-year colleges as Bellevue College in the skill that increasingly are necessary for the 21st century Our four-year universities are wilting under Olympiarsquos failure to adequately fund education Th at must be reversed
So while wersquore at it we would also demand that legislators quickly approve the training and education package valued at about $98 million that Gregoire has put forth to ready our state to prepare future aerospace workers
It was a good week in our state for the aero-space industry Letrsquos build on that and get the rest of our economy moving ahead too

My wife likes Christmas lights across the top of our house I do too Th at means itrsquos once again the annual
struggle to fi nd something mdash anything mdash that will work
Call it the curse of the fl at roofWe have whatrsquos called a
French drain system on our roof Th at means the gutter is internal therersquos no metal trough that runs along the fascia board
Th at also means therersquos no place to hookcliptie a string of lights Believe me Irsquove tried All Irsquove got are
boxes of lights to show for my failed attemptsIn the past Irsquove tried stretching strings of
mini-lights along the fascia But they just sag My wife doesnrsquot have to step too far outside the front door to give a thumbs down
A couple of years ago I switched to C9 bulbs when I discovered they had a little clip on the side Hey I thought this clip will slide up in-side the fl ashing giving me a perfectly straight line of bulbs
Th at worked just fi ne except that the plastic clips wouldnrsquot always fi t under the fl ashing edge Worse the clips being plastic would break off Th e result was more sagging bulbs One year mid-way into the Christmas lighting season I resorted to using duct tape and nails to straighten out sagging bulbs
Have I mentioned that all of this usually happens in the midst of a cold winter rain
Of course with conventional incandescent bulbs I can only connect two sets together Th at means I also must make a trip to the fl at ndash but slippery in the winter ndash roof to lay out extension cords Did I mention that it rains in the winter around here
Itrsquos gotten so bad that this summer when we were having some work done on our roof
I considered spending an additional $2500 to have exterior gutters put on the house $2500 Am I crazy Well Irsquom getting that way
Th is year in the spirit of saving the planet I bought LED bulbs Wow I thought you can string 30 or 40 sets together No more crawling around on the roof
When I took the lights out of the box I discovered that they didnrsquot have clips but since they were smaller and I fi gured a couple hun-dred push-pins would be enough to anchor all the lights Unfortunately these LED lights had twisted wires which not only donrsquot straighten out but also end up pointing the bulbs in every conceivable direction
My wife was even faster with her thumbIn desperation I went back to the store (I
think Irsquom single-handedly keeping Lowersquos prof-itable along with helping million of workers in China stay gainfully employed) bought some more C9 bulbs with the plastic clips Th ey would supplement unused C9 strings I still had from previous failed lighting attempts Yes they still had plastic clips but I fi gured if they just last this year I could redouble my eff orts at a solution next year
Did you know that diff erent manufacturers put malefemale plugs on diff erent ends of the string Th e result is that while half my light sets have clips facing the fl ashing the other half face the street and of course means they wonrsquot attach to the fl ashing
I wonrsquot say Irsquove given up on the project but more and more Irsquom remembering a old Sein-feld episode where George Costanza tells of his fatherrsquos eff ort to de-commercialize Christmas

Meat is one of the few sources of wholesome nutritious protein in food pantry visitorsrsquo diets But for many food pantry visitors meat is some-thing that rarely is put on the table Food pantries that serve the hungry often donrsquot have the resources to pro-vide meat to the people they serve
However for several years now QFC has been able to help these agencies by donating wholesome meat products that no longer meet our standards for appearance or fresh-ness Last year QFC donated 560000 pounds of meat to food pantries in Washington and Oregon This is part of QFCrsquos Grocery Rescue program
ldquoHealthy food is important for ev-eryone but particularly so for low-in-come people suffering from illnesses as well as children and seniors QFC meat donations enable people to main-tain healthier lifestyles and give peo-ple the energy everyone needs to care for themselves and their familiesrdquo says Food Lifeline Grocery Rescue Program Manager Laura Johnson
QFC stores are allowed to donate any meat product in good condition that is frozen on or before the date on the package This can include beef poultry pork and seafood as well as pre-packaged meats such as fully cooked lunch meats and hot dogs
When meat products no longer meet QFCrsquos standards for selling to our customers and become eligible to be donated it is critically important that we maintain safe handling and stor-age procedures There are very real cross contamination risks when han-dling meat For that reason we keep all meat donations separate by species while awaiting pickup We use plastic tubs provided by Oregon Food Bank and Food Lifeline the bins nest and stack and help us to separate meat by species in our meat freezer All meat donations are frozen solid before leaving the store
Practices we follow before donat-ing meat products include freezing to 0o Fahrenheit on or before the date on the package and separating the
meat by species
A Food Lifeline agency that par-ticipates in the Grocery Rescue pro-gram says ldquoThanks for the food you give to those in need We are seeing an increasing need in our community and you are a big part of why we can helprdquo
By donating product that doesnrsquot meet our selling standards QFC helped our neighbors and friends in
Western Washington and Oregon feed their families This helps people get back on their feet after experiencing challenges like losing their homes or jobs
Do you have questions about dona-tions Need additional info Want to volunteer at a local food pantry If so please contact Ken Banks at 425-462-2205

votes and 25 percent of the vote A machine recount happens with a margin less than 2000 votes and 5 percent
Laing said on election night that he was prepared
for the long haul expecting a tight race where the winner didnrsquot get more than 51 or 52 percent of the vote
Bellevuersquos was the fi rst of three recounts county staff must work through this election season A council race in Des Moines was close
enough to trigger a machine recount while races for the Enumclaw School District and the Public Hospital District will be recounted by hand
Th is recount represents an outlier in the county where many by-hand counts have come in smaller areas with only a couple hundred vot-ers In the 2011 election Bel-levue voters returned 35865 ballots or nearly 54 percent Th is turnout represented the highest of the major cities in the county showing the im-portance of this election to the city of Bellevue Among the recounts the next highest was the Enumclaw schools race with more than 8200 votes to be counted and a 53 percent turnout

State troopers are investigating whether to pursue charges against the 39 year-old Tacoma man driving the pickup which was towing a flatbed trailer loaded with some 2000

to be a good neighbor and on Dec 17 we are off ering a hands-on experience for elementary-age children who come to ldquoBethlehem Villagerdquo between 9 am and 2 pm while their parents go shopping or get other errands done You can learn more about it on our web-site wwwfumcbellevueorg but basically we are recreat-ing Bethlehem in the time of the Roman occupation
Children will make new friends chat with shopkeep-ers eager to teach them their craft and happy to talk
about the exciting happen-ings visit with some wise men about constellations and the bright star theyrsquove been studying use ham-mers saws and hand drills to create their own miniature stable in the carpentry shop and much much more
Th is year as an alterna-tive to the divisive public discourse so rampant today we are focusing on the ancient teaching ldquoLove Your Neighborrdquo and we are get-ting to know our neighbors who follow the teachings of Islam or Judaism and Bud-
dhism Representatives from the various faith communi-ties have been marvelous instructors and our ldquofi eld tripsrdquo to mosque synagogue temple and this week an Orthodox Cathedral are invaluable connections for interfaith and ecumenical dialogue We are into dis-mantling walls not creating them

The Bellevue City Council decided Monday to begin charg-ing residents for non-emergency ambulance transportation
The move was part of a slate of decisions on the part of the coun-cil and city staff to close a $65 million budget gap The move is projected to generate $11 million annually for the city
Users of the non-emergency
ambulances would pay a $600 flat fee as well as $12 to $14 a mile Bellevue was one of the last holdouts in the county in free non-emergency ambulance rides Still Councilmembers Grant De-gginger and John Chelminiak did not see these fees as an answer to the cityrsquos budget problems
ldquoThis is a service that we are going to provide whether we do this or notrdquo said Degginger ldquoIt amounts to charging people twice for the same servicerdquo
City Manager Steve Sarkozy has already proposed a lengthy list of spending cuts totaling $46 million including the elimina-tion of 17 full-time equivalent positions six of which would involve layoffs voluntary separa-tions or voluntary retirements The proposed reductions come on top of those made last year when the city reduced its work-force by 49 positions and cut $16 million from the budget
The other $16 million in cuts
involves leaving vacant positions open At risk are a number of positions including four bicycle patrol police officers a police captain and a drop in 247 daily emergency firefighter staff
Sarkozy said the cuts represent a scaling back of services to levels similar to 2007-2008 The city has attempted to avoid cuts to public safety but growth projections have slowed to molasses-like speeds
Council votes in ambulance fee to balance budget

A community organiza-tion that played a large role in the 2011 Bellevue City Council races has been given a $1000 fine for vio-lating the statersquos campaign finance laws
The organization Move Bellevue Forward was fined by the Public Disclosure Commission after it failed to register as a political com-mittee and report expenses to promote candidates
Composed of former Bellevue politicians and pro light-rail citizens Move Bellevue Forward sent out mailers endorsing council candidates Claudia Bal-ducci John Chelminiak and John Stokes all of whom won their races The group also opposed Tim Eymanrsquos tolling Initiative 1125 which lost in a statewide vote
Move Bellevue Forwardrsquos mailer was sent out Oct 18 at a cost of $6615 a portion of which likely came from local developer John Su ac-cording to the PDC because the grouprsquos bank account only had $5000 when the mailer was made
The group became a political committee Sept 27 when it first decided to send the mailer according to the PDC According to PDC regulations Move Bellevue Forward should have filed as a political committee by Oct 11 at the latest
The group filed as a one-year political body on Nov 30 ndash 24 days after the General Election Move Bellevue Forward reported receiving more than $10000 in September in October and spending more than $8000
The PDCrsquos action against
Move Bellevue Forward stemmed from an Oct 20 complaint from a resident Geoff Bidwell about the mailer where he said the group was attempting to cover up its donors
ldquoMove Bellevue Forward - which is barely a Bellevue organization since three of its five board members are based in Seattle - engaged in activity with the obvious in-tent to hide both the source and driving force behind this specific mailer and potentially many beyondrdquo Bidwell wrote
The day before Bidwellrsquos complaint Move Bellevue Forward submitted a report to the PDC disclosing the expenses for the mailer
Sue Baugh president of Move Bellevue Forward said in a statement to the PDC that the board was unaware that its actions had changed the status of the group
ldquoAt the time the pieces were mailed Move Bellevue Forward did not realize that community advocacy groups such as itself that are not organized for the pur-pose of supporting or op-posing particular candidates or ballot propositions could nonetheless be subject to reporting requirements if they publicly endorsed a candidate or took a position on an initiativerdquo Baugh wrote
Baugh argued that because the grouprsquos pri-mary purpose is not to take stances on issues or candidates the issues in the 2011 election were key to their pro-transit goals and required their participation Move Bellevue Forward should not be classified as a political committee she said
Pro light-rail community group hit with campaign finance violations
Beginning at 8 pm Monday the Bellevue City Council will hold a public meeting on whether to accept annexation of the East-gate and Tamara Hills communities
Property owners representing more than 50 percent of the assessed value of both unincorporated areas have signed petitions seeking annexation to the City of Bellevue The council was originally going to take action on them next spring but could act early to preserve a state tax credit designed to offset the cost of providing services
Next week - annexation

State regulators Wednesday issued a complaint against Puget Sound Energy alleging the utility company improp-erly charged a residential-visit disconnect fee to electricity and natural gas customers
Th e Washington Utilities and Transportation Commis-sion staff is alleging PSE committed 1639 violations of state consumer protection rules Th e commission staff also is asking the UTC to require the utility to refund customers charged the $13 fee in error
Th e alleged violations arose from an investigation that spanned from March to May of this year UTC staff found PSE was improperly charging a $13 fi eld-visit disconnect fee to customers Th e PSE representative can only charge the fee if he or she was dispatched to the residence to disconnect electric or natural gas service Under state rules PSE may not charge a disconnect-visit fee if the utility visits a customerrsquos home for a purpose other than to disconnect service such as leaving a 24-hour termination notice or collecting a payment
Th e three-member commission will set a schedule for hearing the complaint Th e company has 20 calendar days to fi le a response If proven at hearing the commission could assess PSE as much as $1000 for each violation Th e company is not allowed to pass any penalty costs to customers through rates
Bellevue-based PSE serves more than 1 million electric customers and about 750000 natural gas customers pri-marily in the Puget Sound region of Washington
Th e UTC is the state agency that regulates private inves-tor-owned electric and natural gas utilities in Washington It is the commissionrsquos responsibility to ensure regulated companies provide safe and reliable service to customers at reasonable rates while allowing them the opportunity to earn a fair profi t

Mike Black grew up in Bellevue and was an All-KingCo selection for the Wolverines in 1986 as a place kicker and punter Aft er his prep career fi nished Black continued playing at Boise State University where he was coached by Sea-hawks quarterback and legend Jim Zorn
A lifelong Hawks fan who attended nearly all of the teamrsquos home games from 1976 until leav-ing for college in 1987 Black has been part of the ESPN-ABC crew that produces Monday Night Football and Th ursday night NCAA football for nearly a decade
Black who now resides in California works as the talent spotter and stage manager with the broadcast crew of Mike Tirico Jon Gruden and Ron Jaworski on the ESPN Monday Night Foot-
ball crew that was in Seattle for the Seahawks Week 14 division matchup with the St Louis Rams at Century Link Field
He took some time to chat with the Reporter about working with such recognizable characters in the booth the life of a production crew mem-ber and his best memories as a Wolverine
BELLEVUE REPORTER How oft en do you make it back to the Pacifi c Northwest and Bel-levue
MIKE BLACK With my schedule with col-lege football and the NFL itrsquos anytime we do a Seahawks Monday night game or the last three or four years a couple UW games here and there I hope for one a year at least
BR When yoursquore back in town what are your must-visit spots
MB Irsquove got to eat at Spud Fish and Chips I make it over to Bellevue to check out the old stomping grounds and to the UW right on the water because thatrsquos where we spread my dadrsquos ashes
BR How did you land with the Monday Night Football crew
MB ESPN took it [MNF] over in 2006 and me and Tirico have been together since before then I was on the ABC Monday Night crew doing a diff erent job the previous few years and were on the Th ursday college package before we made the switch to Monday night
BR All of the guys in the booth are quite the characters on the air Does it change when the cameras switch off
MNF is homecoming for Bellevue man

MB Th eyrsquore totally easy-going Aft er I played at Boise State I played in the Arena League for 10 years so I have a history with Gruden I used to compete against Jay his younger brother who is now the off ensive coordinator with the Bengals Jay was a coach with the Orlando Preda-tors so when Jon got on the show it was pretty cool because I had the history with his brother Jaworski is heavily involved in the Arena League still and wersquove known each other over the years so when he got assigned to the show it was awesome When Jaws came on it was great and when Gruden was an-nounced it got that much better Th e guys are so relaxed leading up to the game and theyrsquore pretty self-suffi cient It seems like they are everybodyrsquos best friends on the crew
BR You have obviously
remained close to football and have a passion for it What are a few of the high-lights from your prep days
MB Th e senior year I had and being so close with my teammates and guys I grew up with is what I remember most We lost in the fi rst round of the play-off s so obviously that was disappointing But having that as my fi rst full season of high school playing it was a great memory and I knew I wanted to play in college somewhere
BR Do you keep up with the Wolverines and what do you think of where the program is today
MB Itrsquos amazing to see whatrsquos happened to Bel-levue Itrsquos great to come back and see it Where I see it the most is in USA Today when I read it on the road I see the weekly rankings and they keep creeping up Itrsquos really cool itrsquos hard to believe

Developers Wright Runstead have submitted an applica-tion for what could turn out to be the next big issue in Bel-levue the Spring District
Th e $15 billion development includes 36 acres of land now occupied by the Safeway distribution site It is planned to include a mixed-use of offi ce towers retail outlets and residences
Th e development is a transit-oriented project meaning it is primarily centered around the construction of East Link light-rail through Bellevue One of the centerpieces of the development a new hotel will have an entrance to a light-rail station according to planning documents submitted to the city
Th e project is slated to be built over a 15-year period in seven distinct phases According to Wright Runsteadrsquos appli-cation developers hope to begin construction on the project in the fi rst quarter of 2012 However city representatives said the review of the plan which does not involve a public hearing would likely take until the early summer Th ose interested can submit public comments about the plan to the city until Dec 22 at 5 pm
Th e new project is projected to bring nearly 37000 vehicle trips per day into the area on 124th Avenue Northeast south of Bel-Red Road including more than 3700 during peak evening time the busiest in Bellevue Road improvements to 120th Avenue Northeast and the creation of a new street - Northeast 15th16th - will help free traffi c once the new buildings come in Th ese are projects in Bellevuersquos budget
Th e issue of paying for the part of the project became an issue this election season Several candidates running for Bellevue City Council opposed impact fee breaks for the project citing Bellevuersquos tenuous budget situation
Th e project was an important item on the council in 2009 Th e body decided to rezone the area for light industrial and residential development Th e city and Wright Runstead reached a development agreement around that time Nat Levy can be reached at 425-453-4290

Marymoor Park was abuzz with the raising of the circus tent for the show Cavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horse on Dec 8
Cavalia includes acrobatics aerialists music dance and of course ndash equestrian stunts Its like Cirque du Soleil but with horses When the show opens Jan 24 itrsquos expected to have the same draw as Cirque shows gaining audience members from across the Eastside Greater Seattle and even across the region
It took less than 20 minutes for crews to raise the 10-story-foot-tall tent spanning more than 26000 square feet Unlike traditional circular circus tents the Cavalia tent is built to be big enough to allow the horses freedom to move during the show so the audience sits on one side and the show takes place on the opposite side
Kevin Brown director of King County Parks and Recreation said he was pleased that the show is fi nally coming to Redmond aft er years of discussing the possibility with Cavalias artistic director Normand Latourelle who cofounded Cirque du Soleil before breaking away 20 years
agoWhile Marymoor has hosted numerous Cirque shows
this will be the fi rst time it has housed a show by Cavalia mdash the name of Latourelles company as well as this particular performance Th e company additionally has another show called Odysseo playing in the south
Latourelle said the inspiration for a show with horses came in the early 2000s when he used a horse in a previ-ous show that simply walked across the stage People were transfi xed by that animal more than the human perform-ers
In an age where many people live in cities and are becoming increasingly removed from nature the chance to see a show with these majestic animals is special Latourelle said Th e relationship between human and horse goes back thousands of years Th roughout various cultures people rode horses for many aspects of life from travel to hunting Th is history is presented in the show
Even people who dont know horses come to this show and they are moved by what they see Latourelle said Its in their blood Its because of our ancestors

alsquoCirque du Soleil with horsesrsquo headed to the Eastside
Normand Latourelle cofounded Cirque du Soleil before forming his own show lsquoCavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horsersquo which opens Jan 24 at Marymoor Park CHAD COLEMAN Bellevue Reporter
Th e Assistance League of the Eastside annual signa-ture fundraiser ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo took place on Friday Dec 9 in Kirkland Th is yearrsquos chairs were League members Kay Zatine and Susie Hino
ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo was a self-guided tour of six unique homes beautifully decorated for the holidays All proceeds from this annual event will help fund the philanthropic programs of the Assistance League of the Eastside that include Operation School Bell Assault Survivor Kits Starting Over Support and Assistance League Outreach Th ese programs provide new clothing to more than 2600 students selected by school personnel in the Lake Washington Bellevue and Northshore school districts help to restore dignity to survivors of sexual assault with clothing to replace items retained as evidence by the police and bring comfort to families seek-ing shelter from domestic violence
Each of the six homes were decorated with the seasonrsquos holiday themes and color palettes all embrac-ing the beauty of Christmas Miranda Roberts VP of communications for the Assistance League shared ldquoHouse 1 Was a twin-kling clerestory of modern living House 2 35 bins of deacutecor completed this themed house that included more than 100 Nutcrack-ers collected over the years House 3 Juxtapositioning
of contemporary and vintage Holiday collections House 4 Tastefully and elegantly decorated showcasing the view of the Lake House 5
Artful design-er deacutecor from the ceiling to fl oor with a wrap-around verandah and House 6 Heirloom decor in a classical Lake Washington
setting with over 15 deco-rated treesrdquo
My favorite decorations were in 6 the lovely wa-terfront home of Diane and Paul Birkeland Upon enter-ing your eyes were imme-diately drawn to the spiral staircase that was wrapped with garland ribbons and ornaments on the right and a small decorator tree placed
on top of the piano on the left Also two more of the many designer trees were on display By far my favorite tree was the Christopher Radko ornament tree in the living room Every room
was beautifully decorated for Christmas

McLean has brought his alter ego to Bellevuersquos most popular Christmas attraction Snowflake Lane where he took his family a few years ago He said they were pushed aside as 50 people lined up to take pictures
Hersquos also been a big hit at the Aegis Living of Bellevue senior center He visits regularly as both Santa and mailman The residents know him well and are always excited when Santa knows their name he said
But only a few days after Thanksgiving this year he was pulled off his route by a supervisor saying some-one had complained about the uniform He didnrsquot know who he had upset or why the complaint was filed
ldquoThis was the first time I donrsquot know what hap-penedrdquo he said ldquoI donrsquot step on anyonersquos toes Be-ing Santa isnrsquot religious to me itrsquos secular Itrsquos about givingrdquo
USPS spokesman Ernie Swanson said the com-plaint came from a fellow carrier Decked out in the full on Santa suit McLean was not recognizable as a USPS employee
McLean is still shocked over the outcome He sees carriers wearing Christ-mas gear all the time Ei-ther way McLean said he will bring the Christmas cheer and he plans to don the Santa suit at work one last time Christmas Eve

One of the serious obstacles to the
improvement of our race is indiscriminate charity
ndash Andrew Carnegie (1835 - 1919)
QUOTE
OF NOTE
There is a sense of relief ndash along with a lot of smiles ndash in the region now that Boeing announced that it would build its
737 MAX in Renton and the Machinists have approved a four-year contract extension
To anyone who works or lives here or is concerned about the future of the aerospace industry in Washington state the decision seemed like a no-brainer But Boeing did look around just like it did for a 787 production plant and a new world headquarters We know how all that turned out ndash two low points on the roller coaster that is life with Boeing
So it should be clear that as Gov Chris Gre-goire has pointed out we can take nothing for granted We are in a competitive atmosphere that spans the globe for such manufacturing prizes as the production of whatrsquos been called a game-changing airliner
Th atrsquos why itrsquos so important to credit one of the key players in the talks that ultimately led to Boeingrsquos decision ndash the Machinists Th e Ma-chinists and the engineers union have been on board the statewide eff ort to keep the 737 MAX production in Washington state
Despite years of acrimony and strikes the Machinists and Boeing found common ground We all should thank them for their willingness to do whatrsquos right for everyone We like what Machinists Local 751 president Tom Wrob-lewski had to say
ldquoTh is proposed agreement with Boeing is good for our members good for the company and good for our communitiesrdquo
Of course each side benefi tted But the point is they set aside their diff erences and gave a little or a lot to reach this landmark agreement
Th atrsquos the type of leadership we demand from our political leaders in Washington DC and Olympia Our nationrsquos capital has become a bastion of do-nothings hamstrung by philoso-phies that play to the extremes leaving out all of us in the middle
So while Boeing and the Machinists have taken a critical step forward to keep the 737 MAX production in Renton we must all work to ensure the success of Gregoirersquos plan to keep the aerospace industry strong and even present in our state
We must strengthen our math and science programs at all levels of education and train or retrain workers at such important two-year colleges as Bellevue College in the skill that increasingly are necessary for the 21st century Our four-year universities are wilting under Olympiarsquos failure to adequately fund education Th at must be reversed
So while wersquore at it we would also demand that legislators quickly approve the training and education package valued at about $98 million that Gregoire has put forth to ready our state to prepare future aerospace workers
It was a good week in our state for the aero-space industry Letrsquos build on that and get the rest of our economy moving ahead too

My wife likes Christmas lights across the top of our house I do too Th at means itrsquos once again the annual
struggle to fi nd something mdash anything mdash that will work
Call it the curse of the fl at roofWe have whatrsquos called a
French drain system on our roof Th at means the gutter is internal therersquos no metal trough that runs along the fascia board
Th at also means therersquos no place to hookcliptie a string of lights Believe me Irsquove tried All Irsquove got are
boxes of lights to show for my failed attemptsIn the past Irsquove tried stretching strings of
mini-lights along the fascia But they just sag My wife doesnrsquot have to step too far outside the front door to give a thumbs down
A couple of years ago I switched to C9 bulbs when I discovered they had a little clip on the side Hey I thought this clip will slide up in-side the fl ashing giving me a perfectly straight line of bulbs
Th at worked just fi ne except that the plastic clips wouldnrsquot always fi t under the fl ashing edge Worse the clips being plastic would break off Th e result was more sagging bulbs One year mid-way into the Christmas lighting season I resorted to using duct tape and nails to straighten out sagging bulbs
Have I mentioned that all of this usually happens in the midst of a cold winter rain
Of course with conventional incandescent bulbs I can only connect two sets together Th at means I also must make a trip to the fl at ndash but slippery in the winter ndash roof to lay out extension cords Did I mention that it rains in the winter around here
Itrsquos gotten so bad that this summer when we were having some work done on our roof
I considered spending an additional $2500 to have exterior gutters put on the house $2500 Am I crazy Well Irsquom getting that way
Th is year in the spirit of saving the planet I bought LED bulbs Wow I thought you can string 30 or 40 sets together No more crawling around on the roof
When I took the lights out of the box I discovered that they didnrsquot have clips but since they were smaller and I fi gured a couple hun-dred push-pins would be enough to anchor all the lights Unfortunately these LED lights had twisted wires which not only donrsquot straighten out but also end up pointing the bulbs in every conceivable direction
My wife was even faster with her thumbIn desperation I went back to the store (I
think Irsquom single-handedly keeping Lowersquos prof-itable along with helping million of workers in China stay gainfully employed) bought some more C9 bulbs with the plastic clips Th ey would supplement unused C9 strings I still had from previous failed lighting attempts Yes they still had plastic clips but I fi gured if they just last this year I could redouble my eff orts at a solution next year
Did you know that diff erent manufacturers put malefemale plugs on diff erent ends of the string Th e result is that while half my light sets have clips facing the fl ashing the other half face the street and of course means they wonrsquot attach to the fl ashing
I wonrsquot say Irsquove given up on the project but more and more Irsquom remembering a old Sein-feld episode where George Costanza tells of his fatherrsquos eff ort to de-commercialize Christmas

Meat is one of the few sources of wholesome nutritious protein in food pantry visitorsrsquo diets But for many food pantry visitors meat is some-thing that rarely is put on the table Food pantries that serve the hungry often donrsquot have the resources to pro-vide meat to the people they serve
However for several years now QFC has been able to help these agencies by donating wholesome meat products that no longer meet our standards for appearance or fresh-ness Last year QFC donated 560000 pounds of meat to food pantries in Washington and Oregon This is part of QFCrsquos Grocery Rescue program
ldquoHealthy food is important for ev-eryone but particularly so for low-in-come people suffering from illnesses as well as children and seniors QFC meat donations enable people to main-tain healthier lifestyles and give peo-ple the energy everyone needs to care for themselves and their familiesrdquo says Food Lifeline Grocery Rescue Program Manager Laura Johnson
QFC stores are allowed to donate any meat product in good condition that is frozen on or before the date on the package This can include beef poultry pork and seafood as well as pre-packaged meats such as fully cooked lunch meats and hot dogs
When meat products no longer meet QFCrsquos standards for selling to our customers and become eligible to be donated it is critically important that we maintain safe handling and stor-age procedures There are very real cross contamination risks when han-dling meat For that reason we keep all meat donations separate by species while awaiting pickup We use plastic tubs provided by Oregon Food Bank and Food Lifeline the bins nest and stack and help us to separate meat by species in our meat freezer All meat donations are frozen solid before leaving the store
Practices we follow before donat-ing meat products include freezing to 0o Fahrenheit on or before the date on the package and separating the
meat by species
A Food Lifeline agency that par-ticipates in the Grocery Rescue pro-gram says ldquoThanks for the food you give to those in need We are seeing an increasing need in our community and you are a big part of why we can helprdquo
By donating product that doesnrsquot meet our selling standards QFC helped our neighbors and friends in
Western Washington and Oregon feed their families This helps people get back on their feet after experiencing challenges like losing their homes or jobs
Do you have questions about dona-tions Need additional info Want to volunteer at a local food pantry If so please contact Ken Banks at 425-462-2205

votes and 25 percent of the vote A machine recount happens with a margin less than 2000 votes and 5 percent
Laing said on election night that he was prepared
for the long haul expecting a tight race where the winner didnrsquot get more than 51 or 52 percent of the vote
Bellevuersquos was the fi rst of three recounts county staff must work through this election season A council race in Des Moines was close
enough to trigger a machine recount while races for the Enumclaw School District and the Public Hospital District will be recounted by hand
Th is recount represents an outlier in the county where many by-hand counts have come in smaller areas with only a couple hundred vot-ers In the 2011 election Bel-levue voters returned 35865 ballots or nearly 54 percent Th is turnout represented the highest of the major cities in the county showing the im-portance of this election to the city of Bellevue Among the recounts the next highest was the Enumclaw schools race with more than 8200 votes to be counted and a 53 percent turnout

A 47 year-old Kirkland woman is in stable condition at Overlake Medical Center after a wayward tire smashed through her windshield and landed in the passenger seat of her car on Tuesday morning
Anita Manueltiqui of Kirkland was driving westbound on SR-520 near the 92nd Avenue Northeast exit when a tire with part of the rim still attached broke loose from a trailer being towed by a pickup truck and ended up inside her vehicle The pickup was headed eastbound at the time and the driver stopped at the scene
State troopers are investigating whether to pursue charges against the 39 year-old Tacoma man driving the pickup which was towing a flatbed trailer loaded with some 2000
pounds of equipment

If yoursquove driven past First United Methodist Church (1934 108th Ave NE) in the past week you have noticed the characters in the Christmas story beginning to populate the front lawn
Th ese straw-stuff ed fi gures are the brainchildren of members of the congre-gation working together for the joy of telling the real Christmas story in an unusual way
By Dec 25 Joseph and Mary will reach the cow shed attended by shep-herds Th e Magi will arrive
later Wersquore having fun and we hope you will come by and watch the story unfold
Th is congrega-tion has a long history of com-munity involve-ment Maybe you are involved in some of these eff orts too making meals for the Crossroads Feeding Program gathering supplies for the Church of Mary Magdalene and Sophia Way supporting Hopelink sending clean-up
crews to assist when natural disasters occur participat-ing in a Habitat build and
hosting and helping with Tent City 4 We look forward to hosting TC4 again in another year or so
All the money raised in the gigantic spring Rummage Sale
goes to mission work most of it spent here in the greater Eastside
We love fi nding new ways
to be a good neighbor and on Dec 17 we are off ering a hands-on experience for elementary-age children who come to ldquoBethlehem Villagerdquo between 9 am and 2 pm while their parents go shopping or get other errands done You can learn more about it on our web-site wwwfumcbellevueorg but basically we are recreat-ing Bethlehem in the time of the Roman occupation
Children will make new friends chat with shopkeep-ers eager to teach them their craft and happy to talk
about the exciting happen-ings visit with some wise men about constellations and the bright star theyrsquove been studying use ham-mers saws and hand drills to create their own miniature stable in the carpentry shop and much much more
Th is year as an alterna-tive to the divisive public discourse so rampant today we are focusing on the ancient teaching ldquoLove Your Neighborrdquo and we are get-ting to know our neighbors who follow the teachings of Islam or Judaism and Bud-
dhism Representatives from the various faith communi-ties have been marvelous instructors and our ldquofi eld tripsrdquo to mosque synagogue temple and this week an Orthodox Cathedral are invaluable connections for interfaith and ecumenical dialogue We are into dis-mantling walls not creating them

The Bellevue City Council decided Monday to begin charg-ing residents for non-emergency ambulance transportation
The move was part of a slate of decisions on the part of the coun-cil and city staff to close a $65 million budget gap The move is projected to generate $11 million annually for the city
Users of the non-emergency
ambulances would pay a $600 flat fee as well as $12 to $14 a mile Bellevue was one of the last holdouts in the county in free non-emergency ambulance rides Still Councilmembers Grant De-gginger and John Chelminiak did not see these fees as an answer to the cityrsquos budget problems
ldquoThis is a service that we are going to provide whether we do this or notrdquo said Degginger ldquoIt amounts to charging people twice for the same servicerdquo
City Manager Steve Sarkozy has already proposed a lengthy list of spending cuts totaling $46 million including the elimina-tion of 17 full-time equivalent positions six of which would involve layoffs voluntary separa-tions or voluntary retirements The proposed reductions come on top of those made last year when the city reduced its work-force by 49 positions and cut $16 million from the budget
The other $16 million in cuts
involves leaving vacant positions open At risk are a number of positions including four bicycle patrol police officers a police captain and a drop in 247 daily emergency firefighter staff
Sarkozy said the cuts represent a scaling back of services to levels similar to 2007-2008 The city has attempted to avoid cuts to public safety but growth projections have slowed to molasses-like speeds
Council votes in ambulance fee to balance budget

A community organiza-tion that played a large role in the 2011 Bellevue City Council races has been given a $1000 fine for vio-lating the statersquos campaign finance laws
The organization Move Bellevue Forward was fined by the Public Disclosure Commission after it failed to register as a political com-mittee and report expenses to promote candidates
Composed of former Bellevue politicians and pro light-rail citizens Move Bellevue Forward sent out mailers endorsing council candidates Claudia Bal-ducci John Chelminiak and John Stokes all of whom won their races The group also opposed Tim Eymanrsquos tolling Initiative 1125 which lost in a statewide vote
Move Bellevue Forwardrsquos mailer was sent out Oct 18 at a cost of $6615 a portion of which likely came from local developer John Su ac-cording to the PDC because the grouprsquos bank account only had $5000 when the mailer was made
The group became a political committee Sept 27 when it first decided to send the mailer according to the PDC According to PDC regulations Move Bellevue Forward should have filed as a political committee by Oct 11 at the latest
The group filed as a one-year political body on Nov 30 ndash 24 days after the General Election Move Bellevue Forward reported receiving more than $10000 in September in October and spending more than $8000
The PDCrsquos action against
Move Bellevue Forward stemmed from an Oct 20 complaint from a resident Geoff Bidwell about the mailer where he said the group was attempting to cover up its donors
ldquoMove Bellevue Forward - which is barely a Bellevue organization since three of its five board members are based in Seattle - engaged in activity with the obvious in-tent to hide both the source and driving force behind this specific mailer and potentially many beyondrdquo Bidwell wrote
The day before Bidwellrsquos complaint Move Bellevue Forward submitted a report to the PDC disclosing the expenses for the mailer
Sue Baugh president of Move Bellevue Forward said in a statement to the PDC that the board was unaware that its actions had changed the status of the group
ldquoAt the time the pieces were mailed Move Bellevue Forward did not realize that community advocacy groups such as itself that are not organized for the pur-pose of supporting or op-posing particular candidates or ballot propositions could nonetheless be subject to reporting requirements if they publicly endorsed a candidate or took a position on an initiativerdquo Baugh wrote
Baugh argued that because the grouprsquos pri-mary purpose is not to take stances on issues or candidates the issues in the 2011 election were key to their pro-transit goals and required their participation Move Bellevue Forward should not be classified as a political committee she said
Pro light-rail community group hit with campaign finance violations
Beginning at 8 pm Monday the Bellevue City Council will hold a public meeting on whether to accept annexation of the East-gate and Tamara Hills communities
Property owners representing more than 50 percent of the assessed value of both unincorporated areas have signed petitions seeking annexation to the City of Bellevue The council was originally going to take action on them next spring but could act early to preserve a state tax credit designed to offset the cost of providing services
Next week - annexation

State regulators Wednesday issued a complaint against Puget Sound Energy alleging the utility company improp-erly charged a residential-visit disconnect fee to electricity and natural gas customers
Th e Washington Utilities and Transportation Commis-sion staff is alleging PSE committed 1639 violations of state consumer protection rules Th e commission staff also is asking the UTC to require the utility to refund customers charged the $13 fee in error
Th e alleged violations arose from an investigation that spanned from March to May of this year UTC staff found PSE was improperly charging a $13 fi eld-visit disconnect fee to customers Th e PSE representative can only charge the fee if he or she was dispatched to the residence to disconnect electric or natural gas service Under state rules PSE may not charge a disconnect-visit fee if the utility visits a customerrsquos home for a purpose other than to disconnect service such as leaving a 24-hour termination notice or collecting a payment
Th e three-member commission will set a schedule for hearing the complaint Th e company has 20 calendar days to fi le a response If proven at hearing the commission could assess PSE as much as $1000 for each violation Th e company is not allowed to pass any penalty costs to customers through rates
Bellevue-based PSE serves more than 1 million electric customers and about 750000 natural gas customers pri-marily in the Puget Sound region of Washington
Th e UTC is the state agency that regulates private inves-tor-owned electric and natural gas utilities in Washington It is the commissionrsquos responsibility to ensure regulated companies provide safe and reliable service to customers at reasonable rates while allowing them the opportunity to earn a fair profi t

MB Th eyrsquore totally easy-going Aft er I played at Boise State I played in the Arena League for 10 years so I have a history with Gruden I used to compete against Jay his younger brother who is now the off ensive coordinator with the Bengals Jay was a coach with the Orlando Preda-tors so when Jon got on the show it was pretty cool because I had the history with his brother Jaworski is heavily involved in the Arena League still and wersquove known each other over the years so when he got assigned to the show it was awesome When Jaws came on it was great and when Gruden was an-nounced it got that much better Th e guys are so relaxed leading up to the game and theyrsquore pretty self-suffi cient It seems like they are everybodyrsquos best friends on the crew
BR You have obviously
remained close to football and have a passion for it What are a few of the high-lights from your prep days
MB Th e senior year I had and being so close with my teammates and guys I grew up with is what I remember most We lost in the fi rst round of the play-off s so obviously that was disappointing But having that as my fi rst full season of high school playing it was a great memory and I knew I wanted to play in college somewhere
BR Do you keep up with the Wolverines and what do you think of where the program is today
MB Itrsquos amazing to see whatrsquos happened to Bel-levue Itrsquos great to come back and see it Where I see it the most is in USA Today when I read it on the road I see the weekly rankings and they keep creeping up Itrsquos really cool itrsquos hard to believe

Developers Wright Runstead have submitted an applica-tion for what could turn out to be the next big issue in Bel-levue the Spring District
Th e $15 billion development includes 36 acres of land now occupied by the Safeway distribution site It is planned to include a mixed-use of offi ce towers retail outlets and residences
Th e development is a transit-oriented project meaning it is primarily centered around the construction of East Link light-rail through Bellevue One of the centerpieces of the development a new hotel will have an entrance to a light-rail station according to planning documents submitted to the city
Th e project is slated to be built over a 15-year period in seven distinct phases According to Wright Runsteadrsquos appli-cation developers hope to begin construction on the project in the fi rst quarter of 2012 However city representatives said the review of the plan which does not involve a public hearing would likely take until the early summer Th ose interested can submit public comments about the plan to the city until Dec 22 at 5 pm
Th e new project is projected to bring nearly 37000 vehicle trips per day into the area on 124th Avenue Northeast south of Bel-Red Road including more than 3700 during peak evening time the busiest in Bellevue Road improvements to 120th Avenue Northeast and the creation of a new street - Northeast 15th16th - will help free traffi c once the new buildings come in Th ese are projects in Bellevuersquos budget
Th e issue of paying for the part of the project became an issue this election season Several candidates running for Bellevue City Council opposed impact fee breaks for the project citing Bellevuersquos tenuous budget situation
Th e project was an important item on the council in 2009 Th e body decided to rezone the area for light industrial and residential development Th e city and Wright Runstead reached a development agreement around that time Nat Levy can be reached at 425-453-4290

Marymoor Park was abuzz with the raising of the circus tent for the show Cavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horse on Dec 8
Cavalia includes acrobatics aerialists music dance and of course ndash equestrian stunts Its like Cirque du Soleil but with horses When the show opens Jan 24 itrsquos expected to have the same draw as Cirque shows gaining audience members from across the Eastside Greater Seattle and even across the region
It took less than 20 minutes for crews to raise the 10-story-foot-tall tent spanning more than 26000 square feet Unlike traditional circular circus tents the Cavalia tent is built to be big enough to allow the horses freedom to move during the show so the audience sits on one side and the show takes place on the opposite side
Kevin Brown director of King County Parks and Recreation said he was pleased that the show is fi nally coming to Redmond aft er years of discussing the possibility with Cavalias artistic director Normand Latourelle who cofounded Cirque du Soleil before breaking away 20 years
agoWhile Marymoor has hosted numerous Cirque shows
this will be the fi rst time it has housed a show by Cavalia mdash the name of Latourelles company as well as this particular performance Th e company additionally has another show called Odysseo playing in the south
Latourelle said the inspiration for a show with horses came in the early 2000s when he used a horse in a previ-ous show that simply walked across the stage People were transfi xed by that animal more than the human perform-ers
In an age where many people live in cities and are becoming increasingly removed from nature the chance to see a show with these majestic animals is special Latourelle said Th e relationship between human and horse goes back thousands of years Th roughout various cultures people rode horses for many aspects of life from travel to hunting Th is history is presented in the show
Even people who dont know horses come to this show and they are moved by what they see Latourelle said Its in their blood Its because of our ancestors

Th e Assistance League of the Eastside annual signa-ture fundraiser ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo took place on Friday Dec 9 in Kirkland Th is yearrsquos chairs were League members Kay Zatine and Susie Hino
ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo was a self-guided tour of six unique homes beautifully decorated for the holidays All proceeds from this annual event will help fund the philanthropic programs of the Assistance League of the Eastside that include Operation School Bell Assault Survivor Kits Starting Over Support and Assistance League Outreach Th ese programs provide new clothing to more than 2600 students selected by school personnel in the Lake Washington Bellevue and Northshore school districts help to restore dignity to survivors of sexual assault with clothing to replace items retained as evidence by the police and bring comfort to families seek-ing shelter from domestic violence
Each of the six homes were decorated with the seasonrsquos holiday themes and color palettes all embrac-ing the beauty of Christmas Miranda Roberts VP of communications for the Assistance League shared ldquoHouse 1 Was a twin-kling clerestory of modern living House 2 35 bins of deacutecor completed this themed house that included more than 100 Nutcrack-ers collected over the years House 3 Juxtapositioning

My favorite decorations were in 6 the lovely wa-terfront home of Diane and Paul Birkeland Upon enter-ing your eyes were imme-diately drawn to the spiral staircase that was wrapped with garland ribbons and ornaments on the right and a small decorator tree placed
on top of the piano on the left Also two more of the many designer trees were on display By far my favorite tree was the Christopher Radko ornament tree in the living room Every room
was beautifully decorated for Christmas

McLean has brought his alter ego to Bellevuersquos most popular Christmas attraction Snowflake Lane where he took his family a few years ago He said they were pushed aside as 50 people lined up to take pictures
Hersquos also been a big hit at the Aegis Living of Bellevue senior center He visits regularly as both Santa and mailman The residents know him well and are always excited when Santa knows their name he said
But only a few days after Thanksgiving this year he was pulled off his route by a supervisor saying some-one had complained about the uniform He didnrsquot know who he had upset or why the complaint was filed
ldquoThis was the first time I donrsquot know what hap-penedrdquo he said ldquoI donrsquot step on anyonersquos toes Be-ing Santa isnrsquot religious to me itrsquos secular Itrsquos about givingrdquo
USPS spokesman Ernie Swanson said the com-plaint came from a fellow carrier Decked out in the full on Santa suit McLean was not recognizable as a USPS employee
McLean is still shocked over the outcome He sees carriers wearing Christ-mas gear all the time Ei-ther way McLean said he will bring the Christmas cheer and he plans to don the Santa suit at work one last time Christmas Eve

One of the serious obstacles to the
improvement of our race is indiscriminate charity
ndash Andrew Carnegie (1835 - 1919)
QUOTE
OF NOTE
There is a sense of relief ndash along with a lot of smiles ndash in the region now that Boeing announced that it would build its
737 MAX in Renton and the Machinists have approved a four-year contract extension
To anyone who works or lives here or is concerned about the future of the aerospace industry in Washington state the decision seemed like a no-brainer But Boeing did look around just like it did for a 787 production plant and a new world headquarters We know how all that turned out ndash two low points on the roller coaster that is life with Boeing
So it should be clear that as Gov Chris Gre-goire has pointed out we can take nothing for granted We are in a competitive atmosphere that spans the globe for such manufacturing prizes as the production of whatrsquos been called a game-changing airliner
Th atrsquos why itrsquos so important to credit one of the key players in the talks that ultimately led to Boeingrsquos decision ndash the Machinists Th e Ma-chinists and the engineers union have been on board the statewide eff ort to keep the 737 MAX production in Washington state
Despite years of acrimony and strikes the Machinists and Boeing found common ground We all should thank them for their willingness to do whatrsquos right for everyone We like what Machinists Local 751 president Tom Wrob-lewski had to say
ldquoTh is proposed agreement with Boeing is good for our members good for the company and good for our communitiesrdquo
Of course each side benefi tted But the point is they set aside their diff erences and gave a little or a lot to reach this landmark agreement
Th atrsquos the type of leadership we demand from our political leaders in Washington DC and Olympia Our nationrsquos capital has become a bastion of do-nothings hamstrung by philoso-phies that play to the extremes leaving out all of us in the middle
So while Boeing and the Machinists have taken a critical step forward to keep the 737 MAX production in Renton we must all work to ensure the success of Gregoirersquos plan to keep the aerospace industry strong and even present in our state
We must strengthen our math and science programs at all levels of education and train or retrain workers at such important two-year colleges as Bellevue College in the skill that increasingly are necessary for the 21st century Our four-year universities are wilting under Olympiarsquos failure to adequately fund education Th at must be reversed
So while wersquore at it we would also demand that legislators quickly approve the training and education package valued at about $98 million that Gregoire has put forth to ready our state to prepare future aerospace workers
It was a good week in our state for the aero-space industry Letrsquos build on that and get the rest of our economy moving ahead too

E D I T O R I A L
My wife likes Christmas lights across the top of our house I do too Th at means itrsquos once again the annual
struggle to fi nd something mdash anything mdash that will work
Call it the curse of the fl at roofWe have whatrsquos called a
French drain system on our roof Th at means the gutter is internal therersquos no metal trough that runs along the fascia board
Th at also means therersquos no place to hookcliptie a string of lights Believe me Irsquove tried All Irsquove got are
boxes of lights to show for my failed attemptsIn the past Irsquove tried stretching strings of
mini-lights along the fascia But they just sag My wife doesnrsquot have to step too far outside the front door to give a thumbs down
A couple of years ago I switched to C9 bulbs when I discovered they had a little clip on the side Hey I thought this clip will slide up in-side the fl ashing giving me a perfectly straight line of bulbs
Th at worked just fi ne except that the plastic clips wouldnrsquot always fi t under the fl ashing edge Worse the clips being plastic would break off Th e result was more sagging bulbs One year mid-way into the Christmas lighting season I resorted to using duct tape and nails to straighten out sagging bulbs
Have I mentioned that all of this usually happens in the midst of a cold winter rain
Of course with conventional incandescent bulbs I can only connect two sets together Th at means I also must make a trip to the fl at ndash but slippery in the winter ndash roof to lay out extension cords Did I mention that it rains in the winter around here
Itrsquos gotten so bad that this summer when we were having some work done on our roof
I considered spending an additional $2500 to have exterior gutters put on the house $2500 Am I crazy Well Irsquom getting that way
Th is year in the spirit of saving the planet I bought LED bulbs Wow I thought you can string 30 or 40 sets together No more crawling around on the roof
When I took the lights out of the box I discovered that they didnrsquot have clips but since they were smaller and I fi gured a couple hun-dred push-pins would be enough to anchor all the lights Unfortunately these LED lights had twisted wires which not only donrsquot straighten out but also end up pointing the bulbs in every conceivable direction
My wife was even faster with her thumbIn desperation I went back to the store (I
think Irsquom single-handedly keeping Lowersquos prof-itable along with helping million of workers in China stay gainfully employed) bought some more C9 bulbs with the plastic clips Th ey would supplement unused C9 strings I still had from previous failed lighting attempts Yes they still had plastic clips but I fi gured if they just last this year I could redouble my eff orts at a solution next year
Did you know that diff erent manufacturers put malefemale plugs on diff erent ends of the string Th e result is that while half my light sets have clips facing the fl ashing the other half face the street and of course means they wonrsquot attach to the fl ashing
I wonrsquot say Irsquove given up on the project but more and more Irsquom remembering a old Sein-feld episode where George Costanza tells of his fatherrsquos eff ort to de-commercialize Christmas

Meat is one of the few sources of wholesome nutritious protein in food pantry visitorsrsquo diets But for many food pantry visitors meat is some-thing that rarely is put on the table Food pantries that serve the hungry often donrsquot have the resources to pro-vide meat to the people they serve
However for several years now QFC has been able to help these agencies by donating wholesome meat products that no longer meet our standards for appearance or fresh-ness Last year QFC donated 560000 pounds of meat to food pantries in Washington and Oregon This is part of QFCrsquos Grocery Rescue program
ldquoHealthy food is important for ev-eryone but particularly so for low-in-come people suffering from illnesses as well as children and seniors QFC meat donations enable people to main-tain healthier lifestyles and give peo-ple the energy everyone needs to care for themselves and their familiesrdquo says Food Lifeline Grocery Rescue Program Manager Laura Johnson
QFC stores are allowed to donate any meat product in good condition that is frozen on or before the date on the package This can include beef poultry pork and seafood as well as pre-packaged meats such as fully cooked lunch meats and hot dogs
When meat products no longer meet QFCrsquos standards for selling to our customers and become eligible to be donated it is critically important that we maintain safe handling and stor-age procedures There are very real cross contamination risks when han-dling meat For that reason we keep all meat donations separate by species while awaiting pickup We use plastic tubs provided by Oregon Food Bank and Food Lifeline the bins nest and stack and help us to separate meat by species in our meat freezer All meat donations are frozen solid before leaving the store
Practices we follow before donat-ing meat products include freezing to 0o Fahrenheit on or before the date on the package and separating the
meat by species
A Food Lifeline agency that par-ticipates in the Grocery Rescue pro-gram says ldquoThanks for the food you give to those in need We are seeing an increasing need in our community and you are a big part of why we can helprdquo
By donating product that doesnrsquot meet our selling standards QFC helped our neighbors and friends in
Western Washington and Oregon feed their families This helps people get back on their feet after experiencing challenges like losing their homes or jobs
Do you have questions about dona-tions Need additional info Want to volunteer at a local food pantry If so please contact Ken Banks at 425-462-2205

votes and 25 percent of the vote A machine recount happens with a margin less than 2000 votes and 5 percent
Laing said on election night that he was prepared
for the long haul expecting a tight race where the winner didnrsquot get more than 51 or 52 percent of the vote
Bellevuersquos was the fi rst of three recounts county staff must work through this election season A council race in Des Moines was close
enough to trigger a machine recount while races for the Enumclaw School District and the Public Hospital District will be recounted by hand
Th is recount represents an outlier in the county where many by-hand counts have come in smaller areas with only a couple hundred vot-ers In the 2011 election Bel-levue voters returned 35865 ballots or nearly 54 percent Th is turnout represented the highest of the major cities in the county showing the im-portance of this election to the city of Bellevue Among the recounts the next highest was the Enumclaw schools race with more than 8200 votes to be counted and a 53 percent turnout

A 47 year-old Kirkland woman is in stable condition at Overlake Medical Center after a wayward tire smashed through her windshield and landed in the passenger seat of her car on Tuesday morning
Anita Manueltiqui of Kirkland was driving westbound on SR-520 near the 92nd Avenue Northeast exit when a tire with part of the rim still attached broke loose from a trailer being towed by a pickup truck and ended up inside her vehicle The pickup was headed eastbound at the time and the driver stopped at the scene
State troopers are investigating whether to pursue charges against the 39 year-old Tacoma man driving the pickup which was towing a flatbed trailer loaded with some 2000
pounds of equipment

If yoursquove driven past First United Methodist Church (1934 108th Ave NE) in the past week you have noticed the characters in the Christmas story beginning to populate the front lawn
Th ese straw-stuff ed fi gures are the brainchildren of members of the congre-gation working together for the joy of telling the real Christmas story in an unusual way
By Dec 25 Joseph and Mary will reach the cow shed attended by shep-herds Th e Magi will arrive
later Wersquore having fun and we hope you will come by and watch the story unfold
Th is congrega-tion has a long history of com-munity involve-ment Maybe you are involved in some of these eff orts too making meals for the Crossroads Feeding Program gathering supplies for the Church of Mary Magdalene and Sophia Way supporting Hopelink sending clean-up
crews to assist when natural disasters occur participat-ing in a Habitat build and
hosting and helping with Tent City 4 We look forward to hosting TC4 again in another year or so
All the money raised in the gigantic spring Rummage Sale
goes to mission work most of it spent here in the greater Eastside
We love fi nding new ways
to be a good neighbor and on Dec 17 we are off ering a hands-on experience for elementary-age children who come to ldquoBethlehem Villagerdquo between 9 am and 2 pm while their parents go shopping or get other errands done You can learn more about it on our web-site wwwfumcbellevueorg but basically we are recreat-ing Bethlehem in the time of the Roman occupation
Children will make new friends chat with shopkeep-ers eager to teach them their craft and happy to talk
about the exciting happen-ings visit with some wise men about constellations and the bright star theyrsquove been studying use ham-mers saws and hand drills to create their own miniature stable in the carpentry shop and much much more
Th is year as an alterna-tive to the divisive public discourse so rampant today we are focusing on the ancient teaching ldquoLove Your Neighborrdquo and we are get-ting to know our neighbors who follow the teachings of Islam or Judaism and Bud-
dhism Representatives from the various faith communi-ties have been marvelous instructors and our ldquofi eld tripsrdquo to mosque synagogue temple and this week an Orthodox Cathedral are invaluable connections for interfaith and ecumenical dialogue We are into dis-mantling walls not creating them

The Bellevue City Council decided Monday to begin charg-ing residents for non-emergency ambulance transportation
The move was part of a slate of decisions on the part of the coun-cil and city staff to close a $65 million budget gap The move is projected to generate $11 million annually for the city
Users of the non-emergency
ambulances would pay a $600 flat fee as well as $12 to $14 a mile Bellevue was one of the last holdouts in the county in free non-emergency ambulance rides Still Councilmembers Grant De-gginger and John Chelminiak did not see these fees as an answer to the cityrsquos budget problems
ldquoThis is a service that we are going to provide whether we do this or notrdquo said Degginger ldquoIt amounts to charging people twice for the same servicerdquo
City Manager Steve Sarkozy has already proposed a lengthy list of spending cuts totaling $46 million including the elimina-tion of 17 full-time equivalent positions six of which would involve layoffs voluntary separa-tions or voluntary retirements The proposed reductions come on top of those made last year when the city reduced its work-force by 49 positions and cut $16 million from the budget
The other $16 million in cuts
involves leaving vacant positions open At risk are a number of positions including four bicycle patrol police officers a police captain and a drop in 247 daily emergency firefighter staff
Sarkozy said the cuts represent a scaling back of services to levels similar to 2007-2008 The city has attempted to avoid cuts to public safety but growth projections have slowed to molasses-like speeds
Council votes in ambulance fee to balance budget

A community organiza-tion that played a large role in the 2011 Bellevue City Council races has been given a $1000 fine for vio-lating the statersquos campaign finance laws
The organization Move Bellevue Forward was fined by the Public Disclosure Commission after it failed to register as a political com-mittee and report expenses to promote candidates
Composed of former Bellevue politicians and pro light-rail citizens Move Bellevue Forward sent out mailers endorsing council candidates Claudia Bal-ducci John Chelminiak and John Stokes all of whom won their races The group also opposed Tim Eymanrsquos tolling Initiative 1125 which lost in a statewide vote
Move Bellevue Forwardrsquos mailer was sent out Oct 18 at a cost of $6615 a portion of which likely came from local developer John Su ac-cording to the PDC because the grouprsquos bank account only had $5000 when the mailer was made
The group became a political committee Sept 27 when it first decided to send the mailer according to the PDC According to PDC regulations Move Bellevue Forward should have filed as a political committee by Oct 11 at the latest
The group filed as a one-year political body on Nov 30 ndash 24 days after the General Election Move Bellevue Forward reported receiving more than $10000 in September in October and spending more than $8000
The PDCrsquos action against
Move Bellevue Forward stemmed from an Oct 20 complaint from a resident Geoff Bidwell about the mailer where he said the group was attempting to cover up its donors
ldquoMove Bellevue Forward - which is barely a Bellevue organization since three of its five board members are based in Seattle - engaged in activity with the obvious in-tent to hide both the source and driving force behind this specific mailer and potentially many beyondrdquo Bidwell wrote
The day before Bidwellrsquos complaint Move Bellevue Forward submitted a report to the PDC disclosing the expenses for the mailer
Sue Baugh president of Move Bellevue Forward said in a statement to the PDC that the board was unaware that its actions had changed the status of the group
ldquoAt the time the pieces were mailed Move Bellevue Forward did not realize that community advocacy groups such as itself that are not organized for the pur-pose of supporting or op-posing particular candidates or ballot propositions could nonetheless be subject to reporting requirements if they publicly endorsed a candidate or took a position on an initiativerdquo Baugh wrote
Baugh argued that because the grouprsquos pri-mary purpose is not to take stances on issues or candidates the issues in the 2011 election were key to their pro-transit goals and required their participation Move Bellevue Forward should not be classified as a political committee she said
Pro light-rail community group hit with campaign finance violations
Beginning at 8 pm Monday the Bellevue City Council will hold a public meeting on whether to accept annexation of the East-gate and Tamara Hills communities
Property owners representing more than 50 percent of the assessed value of both unincorporated areas have signed petitions seeking annexation to the City of Bellevue The council was originally going to take action on them next spring but could act early to preserve a state tax credit designed to offset the cost of providing services
Next week - annexation

State regulators Wednesday issued a complaint against Puget Sound Energy alleging the utility company improp-erly charged a residential-visit disconnect fee to electricity and natural gas customers
Th e Washington Utilities and Transportation Commis-sion staff is alleging PSE committed 1639 violations of state consumer protection rules Th e commission staff also is asking the UTC to require the utility to refund customers charged the $13 fee in error
Th e alleged violations arose from an investigation that spanned from March to May of this year UTC staff found PSE was improperly charging a $13 fi eld-visit disconnect fee to customers Th e PSE representative can only charge the fee if he or she was dispatched to the residence to disconnect electric or natural gas service Under state rules PSE may not charge a disconnect-visit fee if the utility visits a customerrsquos home for a purpose other than to disconnect service such as leaving a 24-hour termination notice or collecting a payment
Th e three-member commission will set a schedule for hearing the complaint Th e company has 20 calendar days to fi le a response If proven at hearing the commission could assess PSE as much as $1000 for each violation Th e company is not allowed to pass any penalty costs to customers through rates
Bellevue-based PSE serves more than 1 million electric customers and about 750000 natural gas customers pri-marily in the Puget Sound region of Washington
Th e UTC is the state agency that regulates private inves-tor-owned electric and natural gas utilities in Washington It is the commissionrsquos responsibility to ensure regulated companies provide safe and reliable service to customers at reasonable rates while allowing them the opportunity to earn a fair profi t

MB Th eyrsquore totally easy-going Aft er I played at Boise State I played in the Arena League for 10 years so I have a history with Gruden I used to compete against Jay his younger brother who is now the off ensive coordinator with the Bengals Jay was a coach with the Orlando Preda-tors so when Jon got on the show it was pretty cool because I had the history with his brother Jaworski is heavily involved in the Arena League still and wersquove known each other over the years so when he got assigned to the show it was awesome When Jaws came on it was great and when Gruden was an-nounced it got that much better Th e guys are so relaxed leading up to the game and theyrsquore pretty self-suffi cient It seems like they are everybodyrsquos best friends on the crew
BR You have obviously
remained close to football and have a passion for it What are a few of the high-lights from your prep days
MB Th e senior year I had and being so close with my teammates and guys I grew up with is what I remember most We lost in the fi rst round of the play-off s so obviously that was disappointing But having that as my fi rst full season of high school playing it was a great memory and I knew I wanted to play in college somewhere
BR Do you keep up with the Wolverines and what do you think of where the program is today
MB Itrsquos amazing to see whatrsquos happened to Bel-levue Itrsquos great to come back and see it Where I see it the most is in USA Today when I read it on the road I see the weekly rankings and they keep creeping up Itrsquos really cool itrsquos hard to believe

Developers Wright Runstead have submitted an applica-tion for what could turn out to be the next big issue in Bel-levue the Spring District
Th e $15 billion development includes 36 acres of land now occupied by the Safeway distribution site It is planned to include a mixed-use of offi ce towers retail outlets and residences
Th e development is a transit-oriented project meaning it is primarily centered around the construction of East Link light-rail through Bellevue One of the centerpieces of the development a new hotel will have an entrance to a light-rail station according to planning documents submitted to the city
Th e project is slated to be built over a 15-year period in seven distinct phases According to Wright Runsteadrsquos appli-cation developers hope to begin construction on the project in the fi rst quarter of 2012 However city representatives said the review of the plan which does not involve a public hearing would likely take until the early summer Th ose interested can submit public comments about the plan to the city until Dec 22 at 5 pm
Th e new project is projected to bring nearly 37000 vehicle trips per day into the area on 124th Avenue Northeast south of Bel-Red Road including more than 3700 during peak evening time the busiest in Bellevue Road improvements to 120th Avenue Northeast and the creation of a new street - Northeast 15th16th - will help free traffi c once the new buildings come in Th ese are projects in Bellevuersquos budget
Th e issue of paying for the part of the project became an issue this election season Several candidates running for Bellevue City Council opposed impact fee breaks for the project citing Bellevuersquos tenuous budget situation
Th e project was an important item on the council in 2009 Th e body decided to rezone the area for light industrial and residential development Th e city and Wright Runstead reached a development agreement around that time Nat Levy can be reached at 425-453-4290

Marymoor Park was abuzz with the raising of the circus tent for the show Cavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horse on Dec 8
Cavalia includes acrobatics aerialists music dance and of course ndash equestrian stunts Its like Cirque du Soleil but with horses When the show opens Jan 24 itrsquos expected to have the same draw as Cirque shows gaining audience members from across the Eastside Greater Seattle and even across the region
It took less than 20 minutes for crews to raise the 10-story-foot-tall tent spanning more than 26000 square feet Unlike traditional circular circus tents the Cavalia tent is built to be big enough to allow the horses freedom to move during the show so the audience sits on one side and the show takes place on the opposite side
Kevin Brown director of King County Parks and Recreation said he was pleased that the show is fi nally coming to Redmond aft er years of discussing the possibility with Cavalias artistic director Normand Latourelle who cofounded Cirque du Soleil before breaking away 20 years
agoWhile Marymoor has hosted numerous Cirque shows
this will be the fi rst time it has housed a show by Cavalia mdash the name of Latourelles company as well as this particular performance Th e company additionally has another show called Odysseo playing in the south
Latourelle said the inspiration for a show with horses came in the early 2000s when he used a horse in a previ-ous show that simply walked across the stage People were transfi xed by that animal more than the human perform-ers
In an age where many people live in cities and are becoming increasingly removed from nature the chance to see a show with these majestic animals is special Latourelle said Th e relationship between human and horse goes back thousands of years Th roughout various cultures people rode horses for many aspects of life from travel to hunting Th is history is presented in the show
Even people who dont know horses come to this show and they are moved by what they see Latourelle said Its in their blood Its because of our ancestors

My favorite decorations were in 6 the lovely wa-terfront home of Diane and Paul Birkeland Upon enter-ing your eyes were imme-diately drawn to the spiral staircase that was wrapped with garland ribbons and ornaments on the right and a small decorator tree placed
on top of the piano on the left Also two more of the many designer trees were on display By far my favorite tree was the Christopher Radko ornament tree in the living room Every room
was beautifully decorated for Christmas

One of the serious obstacles to the
improvement of our race is indiscriminate charity
ndash Andrew Carnegie (1835 - 1919)
QUOTE
OF NOTE
There is a sense of relief ndash along with a lot of smiles ndash in the region now that Boeing announced that it would build its
737 MAX in Renton and the Machinists have approved a four-year contract extension
To anyone who works or lives here or is concerned about the future of the aerospace industry in Washington state the decision seemed like a no-brainer But Boeing did look around just like it did for a 787 production plant and a new world headquarters We know how all that turned out ndash two low points on the roller coaster that is life with Boeing
So it should be clear that as Gov Chris Gre-goire has pointed out we can take nothing for granted We are in a competitive atmosphere that spans the globe for such manufacturing prizes as the production of whatrsquos been called a game-changing airliner
Th atrsquos why itrsquos so important to credit one of the key players in the talks that ultimately led to Boeingrsquos decision ndash the Machinists Th e Ma-chinists and the engineers union have been on board the statewide eff ort to keep the 737 MAX production in Washington state
Despite years of acrimony and strikes the Machinists and Boeing found common ground We all should thank them for their willingness to do whatrsquos right for everyone We like what Machinists Local 751 president Tom Wrob-lewski had to say
ldquoTh is proposed agreement with Boeing is good for our members good for the company and good for our communitiesrdquo
Of course each side benefi tted But the point is they set aside their diff erences and gave a little or a lot to reach this landmark agreement
Th atrsquos the type of leadership we demand from our political leaders in Washington DC and Olympia Our nationrsquos capital has become a bastion of do-nothings hamstrung by philoso-phies that play to the extremes leaving out all of us in the middle
So while Boeing and the Machinists have taken a critical step forward to keep the 737 MAX production in Renton we must all work to ensure the success of Gregoirersquos plan to keep the aerospace industry strong and even present in our state
We must strengthen our math and science programs at all levels of education and train or retrain workers at such important two-year colleges as Bellevue College in the skill that increasingly are necessary for the 21st century Our four-year universities are wilting under Olympiarsquos failure to adequately fund education Th at must be reversed
So while wersquore at it we would also demand that legislators quickly approve the training and education package valued at about $98 million that Gregoire has put forth to ready our state to prepare future aerospace workers
It was a good week in our state for the aero-space industry Letrsquos build on that and get the rest of our economy moving ahead too

E D I T O R I A L
My wife likes Christmas lights across the top of our house I do too Th at means itrsquos once again the annual
struggle to fi nd something mdash anything mdash that will work
Call it the curse of the fl at roofWe have whatrsquos called a
French drain system on our roof Th at means the gutter is internal therersquos no metal trough that runs along the fascia board
Th at also means therersquos no place to hookcliptie a string of lights Believe me Irsquove tried All Irsquove got are
boxes of lights to show for my failed attemptsIn the past Irsquove tried stretching strings of
mini-lights along the fascia But they just sag My wife doesnrsquot have to step too far outside the front door to give a thumbs down
A couple of years ago I switched to C9 bulbs when I discovered they had a little clip on the side Hey I thought this clip will slide up in-side the fl ashing giving me a perfectly straight line of bulbs
Th at worked just fi ne except that the plastic clips wouldnrsquot always fi t under the fl ashing edge Worse the clips being plastic would break off Th e result was more sagging bulbs One year mid-way into the Christmas lighting season I resorted to using duct tape and nails to straighten out sagging bulbs
Have I mentioned that all of this usually happens in the midst of a cold winter rain
Of course with conventional incandescent bulbs I can only connect two sets together Th at means I also must make a trip to the fl at ndash but slippery in the winter ndash roof to lay out extension cords Did I mention that it rains in the winter around here
Itrsquos gotten so bad that this summer when we were having some work done on our roof
I considered spending an additional $2500 to have exterior gutters put on the house $2500 Am I crazy Well Irsquom getting that way
Th is year in the spirit of saving the planet I bought LED bulbs Wow I thought you can string 30 or 40 sets together No more crawling around on the roof
When I took the lights out of the box I discovered that they didnrsquot have clips but since they were smaller and I fi gured a couple hun-dred push-pins would be enough to anchor all the lights Unfortunately these LED lights had twisted wires which not only donrsquot straighten out but also end up pointing the bulbs in every conceivable direction
My wife was even faster with her thumbIn desperation I went back to the store (I
think Irsquom single-handedly keeping Lowersquos prof-itable along with helping million of workers in China stay gainfully employed) bought some more C9 bulbs with the plastic clips Th ey would supplement unused C9 strings I still had from previous failed lighting attempts Yes they still had plastic clips but I fi gured if they just last this year I could redouble my eff orts at a solution next year
Did you know that diff erent manufacturers put malefemale plugs on diff erent ends of the string Th e result is that while half my light sets have clips facing the fl ashing the other half face the street and of course means they wonrsquot attach to the fl ashing

Meat is one of the few sources of wholesome nutritious protein in food pantry visitorsrsquo diets But for many food pantry visitors meat is some-thing that rarely is put on the table Food pantries that serve the hungry often donrsquot have the resources to pro-vide meat to the people they serve
However for several years now QFC has been able to help these agencies by donating wholesome meat products that no longer meet our standards for appearance or fresh-ness Last year QFC donated 560000 pounds of meat to food pantries in Washington and Oregon This is part of QFCrsquos Grocery Rescue program
ldquoHealthy food is important for ev-eryone but particularly so for low-in-come people suffering from illnesses as well as children and seniors QFC meat donations enable people to main-tain healthier lifestyles and give peo-ple the energy everyone needs to care for themselves and their familiesrdquo says Food Lifeline Grocery Rescue Program Manager Laura Johnson
QFC stores are allowed to donate any meat product in good condition that is frozen on or before the date on the package This can include beef poultry pork and seafood as well as pre-packaged meats such as fully cooked lunch meats and hot dogs
When meat products no longer meet QFCrsquos standards for selling to our customers and become eligible to be donated it is critically important that we maintain safe handling and stor-age procedures There are very real cross contamination risks when han-dling meat For that reason we keep all meat donations separate by species while awaiting pickup We use plastic tubs provided by Oregon Food Bank and Food Lifeline the bins nest and stack and help us to separate meat by species in our meat freezer All meat donations are frozen solid before leaving the store
Practices we follow before donat-ing meat products include freezing to 0o Fahrenheit on or before the date on the package and separating the
meat by species
A Food Lifeline agency that par-ticipates in the Grocery Rescue pro-gram says ldquoThanks for the food you give to those in need We are seeing an increasing need in our community and you are a big part of why we can helprdquo
By donating product that doesnrsquot meet our selling standards QFC helped our neighbors and friends in
Western Washington and Oregon feed their families This helps people get back on their feet after experiencing challenges like losing their homes or jobs
Do you have questions about dona-tions Need additional info Want to volunteer at a local food pantry If so please contact Ken Banks at 425-462-2205

votes and 25 percent of the vote A machine recount happens with a margin less than 2000 votes and 5 percent
Laing said on election night that he was prepared
for the long haul expecting a tight race where the winner didnrsquot get more than 51 or 52 percent of the vote
Bellevuersquos was the fi rst of three recounts county staff must work through this election season A council race in Des Moines was close
enough to trigger a machine recount while races for the Enumclaw School District and the Public Hospital District will be recounted by hand
Th is recount represents an outlier in the county where many by-hand counts have come in smaller areas with only a couple hundred vot-ers In the 2011 election Bel-levue voters returned 35865 ballots or nearly 54 percent Th is turnout represented the highest of the major cities in the county showing the im-portance of this election to the city of Bellevue Among the recounts the next highest was the Enumclaw schools race with more than 8200 votes to be counted and a 53 percent turnout

State troopers are investigating whether to pursue charges against the 39 year-old Tacoma man driving the pickup which was towing a flatbed trailer loaded with some 2000

If yoursquove driven past First United Methodist Church (1934 108th Ave NE) in the past week you have noticed the characters in the Christmas story beginning to populate the front lawn
Th ese straw-stuff ed fi gures are the brainchildren of members of the congre-gation working together for the joy of telling the real Christmas story in an unusual way
By Dec 25 Joseph and Mary will reach the cow shed attended by shep-herds Th e Magi will arrive
later Wersquore having fun and we hope you will come by and watch the story unfold
Th is congrega-tion has a long history of com-munity involve-ment Maybe you are involved in some of these eff orts too making meals for the Crossroads Feeding Program gathering supplies for the Church of Mary Magdalene and Sophia Way supporting Hopelink sending clean-up
crews to assist when natural disasters occur participat-ing in a Habitat build and
hosting and helping with Tent City 4 We look forward to hosting TC4 again in another year or so
All the money raised in the gigantic spring Rummage Sale
goes to mission work most of it spent here in the greater Eastside
We love fi nding new ways
to be a good neighbor and on Dec 17 we are off ering a hands-on experience for elementary-age children who come to ldquoBethlehem Villagerdquo between 9 am and 2 pm while their parents go shopping or get other errands done You can learn more about it on our web-site wwwfumcbellevueorg but basically we are recreat-ing Bethlehem in the time of the Roman occupation
Children will make new friends chat with shopkeep-ers eager to teach them their craft and happy to talk
about the exciting happen-ings visit with some wise men about constellations and the bright star theyrsquove been studying use ham-mers saws and hand drills to create their own miniature stable in the carpentry shop and much much more
Th is year as an alterna-tive to the divisive public discourse so rampant today we are focusing on the ancient teaching ldquoLove Your Neighborrdquo and we are get-ting to know our neighbors who follow the teachings of Islam or Judaism and Bud-
dhism Representatives from the various faith communi-ties have been marvelous instructors and our ldquofi eld tripsrdquo to mosque synagogue temple and this week an Orthodox Cathedral are invaluable connections for interfaith and ecumenical dialogue We are into dis-mantling walls not creating them

The Bellevue City Council decided Monday to begin charg-ing residents for non-emergency ambulance transportation
The move was part of a slate of decisions on the part of the coun-cil and city staff to close a $65 million budget gap The move is projected to generate $11 million annually for the city
Users of the non-emergency
ambulances would pay a $600 flat fee as well as $12 to $14 a mile Bellevue was one of the last holdouts in the county in free non-emergency ambulance rides Still Councilmembers Grant De-gginger and John Chelminiak did not see these fees as an answer to the cityrsquos budget problems
ldquoThis is a service that we are going to provide whether we do this or notrdquo said Degginger ldquoIt amounts to charging people twice for the same servicerdquo
City Manager Steve Sarkozy has already proposed a lengthy list of spending cuts totaling $46 million including the elimina-tion of 17 full-time equivalent positions six of which would involve layoffs voluntary separa-tions or voluntary retirements The proposed reductions come on top of those made last year when the city reduced its work-force by 49 positions and cut $16 million from the budget
The other $16 million in cuts
involves leaving vacant positions open At risk are a number of positions including four bicycle patrol police officers a police captain and a drop in 247 daily emergency firefighter staff
Sarkozy said the cuts represent a scaling back of services to levels similar to 2007-2008 The city has attempted to avoid cuts to public safety but growth projections have slowed to molasses-like speeds
Council votes in ambulance fee to balance budget

A community organiza-tion that played a large role in the 2011 Bellevue City Council races has been given a $1000 fine for vio-lating the statersquos campaign finance laws
The organization Move Bellevue Forward was fined by the Public Disclosure Commission after it failed to register as a political com-mittee and report expenses to promote candidates
Composed of former Bellevue politicians and pro light-rail citizens Move Bellevue Forward sent out mailers endorsing council candidates Claudia Bal-ducci John Chelminiak and John Stokes all of whom won their races The group also opposed Tim Eymanrsquos tolling Initiative 1125 which lost in a statewide vote
Move Bellevue Forwardrsquos mailer was sent out Oct 18 at a cost of $6615 a portion of which likely came from local developer John Su ac-cording to the PDC because the grouprsquos bank account only had $5000 when the mailer was made
The group became a political committee Sept 27 when it first decided to send the mailer according to the PDC According to PDC regulations Move Bellevue Forward should have filed as a political committee by Oct 11 at the latest
The group filed as a one-year political body on Nov 30 ndash 24 days after the General Election Move Bellevue Forward reported receiving more than $10000 in September in October and spending more than $8000
The PDCrsquos action against
Move Bellevue Forward stemmed from an Oct 20 complaint from a resident Geoff Bidwell about the mailer where he said the group was attempting to cover up its donors
ldquoMove Bellevue Forward - which is barely a Bellevue organization since three of its five board members are based in Seattle - engaged in activity with the obvious in-tent to hide both the source and driving force behind this specific mailer and potentially many beyondrdquo Bidwell wrote
The day before Bidwellrsquos complaint Move Bellevue Forward submitted a report to the PDC disclosing the expenses for the mailer
Sue Baugh president of Move Bellevue Forward said in a statement to the PDC that the board was unaware that its actions had changed the status of the group
ldquoAt the time the pieces were mailed Move Bellevue Forward did not realize that community advocacy groups such as itself that are not organized for the pur-pose of supporting or op-posing particular candidates or ballot propositions could nonetheless be subject to reporting requirements if they publicly endorsed a candidate or took a position on an initiativerdquo Baugh wrote
Baugh argued that because the grouprsquos pri-mary purpose is not to take stances on issues or candidates the issues in the 2011 election were key to their pro-transit goals and required their participation Move Bellevue Forward should not be classified as a political committee she said
Pro light-rail community group hit with campaign finance violations
Beginning at 8 pm Monday the Bellevue City Council will hold a public meeting on whether to accept annexation of the East-gate and Tamara Hills communities
Property owners representing more than 50 percent of the assessed value of both unincorporated areas have signed petitions seeking annexation to the City of Bellevue The council was originally going to take action on them next spring but could act early to preserve a state tax credit designed to offset the cost of providing services
Next week - annexation

State regulators Wednesday issued a complaint against Puget Sound Energy alleging the utility company improp-erly charged a residential-visit disconnect fee to electricity and natural gas customers
Th e Washington Utilities and Transportation Commis-sion staff is alleging PSE committed 1639 violations of state consumer protection rules Th e commission staff also is asking the UTC to require the utility to refund customers charged the $13 fee in error
Th e alleged violations arose from an investigation that spanned from March to May of this year UTC staff found PSE was improperly charging a $13 fi eld-visit disconnect fee to customers Th e PSE representative can only charge the fee if he or she was dispatched to the residence to disconnect electric or natural gas service Under state rules PSE may not charge a disconnect-visit fee if the utility visits a customerrsquos home for a purpose other than to disconnect service such as leaving a 24-hour termination notice or collecting a payment
Th e three-member commission will set a schedule for hearing the complaint Th e company has 20 calendar days to fi le a response If proven at hearing the commission could assess PSE as much as $1000 for each violation Th e company is not allowed to pass any penalty costs to customers through rates
Bellevue-based PSE serves more than 1 million electric customers and about 750000 natural gas customers pri-marily in the Puget Sound region of Washington
Th e UTC is the state agency that regulates private inves-tor-owned electric and natural gas utilities in Washington It is the commissionrsquos responsibility to ensure regulated companies provide safe and reliable service to customers at reasonable rates while allowing them the opportunity to earn a fair profi t

Mike Black grew up in Bellevue and was an All-KingCo selection for the Wolverines in 1986 as a place kicker and punter Aft er his prep career fi nished Black continued playing at Boise State University where he was coached by Sea-hawks quarterback and legend Jim Zorn
A lifelong Hawks fan who attended nearly all of the teamrsquos home games from 1976 until leav-ing for college in 1987 Black has been part of the ESPN-ABC crew that produces Monday Night Football and Th ursday night NCAA football for nearly a decade
Black who now resides in California works as the talent spotter and stage manager with the broadcast crew of Mike Tirico Jon Gruden and Ron Jaworski on the ESPN Monday Night Foot-
ball crew that was in Seattle for the Seahawks Week 14 division matchup with the St Louis Rams at Century Link Field
He took some time to chat with the Reporter about working with such recognizable characters in the booth the life of a production crew mem-ber and his best memories as a Wolverine
BELLEVUE REPORTER How oft en do you make it back to the Pacifi c Northwest and Bel-levue

MB Irsquove got to eat at Spud Fish and Chips I make it over to Bellevue to check out the old stomping grounds and to the UW right on the water because thatrsquos where we spread my dadrsquos ashes
BR How did you land with the Monday Night Football crew
MB ESPN took it [MNF] over in 2006 and me and Tirico have been together since before then I was on the ABC Monday Night crew doing a diff erent job the previous few years and were on the Th ursday college package before we made the switch to Monday night
BR All of the guys in the booth are quite the characters on the air Does it change when the cameras switch off
MNF is homecoming for Bellevue man

MB Th eyrsquore totally easy-going Aft er I played at Boise State I played in the Arena League for 10 years so I have a history with Gruden I used to compete against Jay his younger brother who is now the off ensive coordinator with the Bengals Jay was a coach with the Orlando Preda-tors so when Jon got on the show it was pretty cool because I had the history with his brother Jaworski is heavily involved in the Arena League still and wersquove known each other over the years so when he got assigned to the show it was awesome When Jaws came on it was great and when Gruden was an-nounced it got that much better Th e guys are so relaxed leading up to the game and theyrsquore pretty self-suffi cient It seems like they are everybodyrsquos best friends on the crew
BR You have obviously
remained close to football and have a passion for it What are a few of the high-lights from your prep days
MB Th e senior year I had and being so close with my teammates and guys I grew up with is what I remember most We lost in the fi rst round of the play-off s so obviously that was disappointing But having that as my fi rst full season of high school playing it was a great memory and I knew I wanted to play in college somewhere
BR Do you keep up with the Wolverines and what do you think of where the program is today
MB Itrsquos amazing to see whatrsquos happened to Bel-levue Itrsquos great to come back and see it Where I see it the most is in USA Today when I read it on the road I see the weekly rankings and they keep creeping up Itrsquos really cool itrsquos hard to believe

Developers Wright Runstead have submitted an applica-tion for what could turn out to be the next big issue in Bel-levue the Spring District
Th e $15 billion development includes 36 acres of land now occupied by the Safeway distribution site It is planned to include a mixed-use of offi ce towers retail outlets and residences
Th e development is a transit-oriented project meaning it is primarily centered around the construction of East Link light-rail through Bellevue One of the centerpieces of the development a new hotel will have an entrance to a light-rail station according to planning documents submitted to the city
Th e project is slated to be built over a 15-year period in seven distinct phases According to Wright Runsteadrsquos appli-cation developers hope to begin construction on the project in the fi rst quarter of 2012 However city representatives said the review of the plan which does not involve a public hearing would likely take until the early summer Th ose interested can submit public comments about the plan to the city until Dec 22 at 5 pm
Th e new project is projected to bring nearly 37000 vehicle trips per day into the area on 124th Avenue Northeast south of Bel-Red Road including more than 3700 during peak evening time the busiest in Bellevue Road improvements to 120th Avenue Northeast and the creation of a new street - Northeast 15th16th - will help free traffi c once the new buildings come in Th ese are projects in Bellevuersquos budget
Th e issue of paying for the part of the project became an issue this election season Several candidates running for Bellevue City Council opposed impact fee breaks for the project citing Bellevuersquos tenuous budget situation
Th e project was an important item on the council in 2009 Th e body decided to rezone the area for light industrial and residential development Th e city and Wright Runstead reached a development agreement around that time Nat Levy can be reached at 425-453-4290

Marymoor Park was abuzz with the raising of the circus tent for the show Cavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horse on Dec 8
Cavalia includes acrobatics aerialists music dance and of course ndash equestrian stunts Its like Cirque du Soleil but with horses When the show opens Jan 24 itrsquos expected to have the same draw as Cirque shows gaining audience members from across the Eastside Greater Seattle and even across the region
It took less than 20 minutes for crews to raise the 10-story-foot-tall tent spanning more than 26000 square feet Unlike traditional circular circus tents the Cavalia tent is built to be big enough to allow the horses freedom to move during the show so the audience sits on one side and the show takes place on the opposite side
Kevin Brown director of King County Parks and Recreation said he was pleased that the show is fi nally coming to Redmond aft er years of discussing the possibility with Cavalias artistic director Normand Latourelle who cofounded Cirque du Soleil before breaking away 20 years
agoWhile Marymoor has hosted numerous Cirque shows
this will be the fi rst time it has housed a show by Cavalia mdash the name of Latourelles company as well as this particular performance Th e company additionally has another show called Odysseo playing in the south
Latourelle said the inspiration for a show with horses came in the early 2000s when he used a horse in a previ-ous show that simply walked across the stage People were transfi xed by that animal more than the human perform-ers
In an age where many people live in cities and are becoming increasingly removed from nature the chance to see a show with these majestic animals is special Latourelle said Th e relationship between human and horse goes back thousands of years Th roughout various cultures people rode horses for many aspects of life from travel to hunting Th is history is presented in the show
Even people who dont know horses come to this show and they are moved by what they see Latourelle said Its in their blood Its because of our ancestors

Th e Assistance League of the Eastside annual signa-ture fundraiser ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo took place on Friday Dec 9 in Kirkland Th is yearrsquos chairs were League members Kay Zatine and Susie Hino
ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo was a self-guided tour of six unique homes beautifully decorated for the holidays All proceeds from this annual event will help fund the philanthropic programs of the Assistance League of the Eastside that include Operation School Bell Assault Survivor Kits Starting Over Support and Assistance League Outreach Th ese programs provide new clothing to more than 2600 students selected by school personnel in the Lake Washington Bellevue and Northshore school districts help to restore dignity to survivors of sexual assault with clothing to replace items retained as evidence by the police and bring comfort to families seek-ing shelter from domestic violence

My favorite decorations were in 6 the lovely wa-terfront home of Diane and Paul Birkeland Upon enter-ing your eyes were imme-diately drawn to the spiral staircase that was wrapped with garland ribbons and ornaments on the right and a small decorator tree placed
on top of the piano on the left Also two more of the many designer trees were on display By far my favorite tree was the Christopher Radko ornament tree in the living room Every room
was beautifully decorated for Christmas

One of the serious obstacles to the
improvement of our race is indiscriminate charity
ndash Andrew Carnegie (1835 - 1919)
QUOTE
OF NOTE
There is a sense of relief ndash along with a lot of smiles ndash in the region now that Boeing announced that it would build its
737 MAX in Renton and the Machinists have approved a four-year contract extension
To anyone who works or lives here or is concerned about the future of the aerospace industry in Washington state the decision seemed like a no-brainer But Boeing did look around just like it did for a 787 production plant and a new world headquarters We know how all that turned out ndash two low points on the roller coaster that is life with Boeing
So it should be clear that as Gov Chris Gre-goire has pointed out we can take nothing for granted We are in a competitive atmosphere that spans the globe for such manufacturing prizes as the production of whatrsquos been called a game-changing airliner
Th atrsquos why itrsquos so important to credit one of the key players in the talks that ultimately led to Boeingrsquos decision ndash the Machinists Th e Ma-chinists and the engineers union have been on board the statewide eff ort to keep the 737 MAX production in Washington state
Despite years of acrimony and strikes the Machinists and Boeing found common ground We all should thank them for their willingness to do whatrsquos right for everyone We like what Machinists Local 751 president Tom Wrob-lewski had to say
ldquoTh is proposed agreement with Boeing is good for our members good for the company and good for our communitiesrdquo
Of course each side benefi tted But the point is they set aside their diff erences and gave a little or a lot to reach this landmark agreement
Th atrsquos the type of leadership we demand from our political leaders in Washington DC and Olympia Our nationrsquos capital has become a bastion of do-nothings hamstrung by philoso-phies that play to the extremes leaving out all of us in the middle
So while Boeing and the Machinists have taken a critical step forward to keep the 737 MAX production in Renton we must all work to ensure the success of Gregoirersquos plan to keep the aerospace industry strong and even present in our state
We must strengthen our math and science programs at all levels of education and train or retrain workers at such important two-year colleges as Bellevue College in the skill that increasingly are necessary for the 21st century Our four-year universities are wilting under Olympiarsquos failure to adequately fund education Th at must be reversed
So while wersquore at it we would also demand that legislators quickly approve the training and education package valued at about $98 million that Gregoire has put forth to ready our state to prepare future aerospace workers
It was a good week in our state for the aero-space industry Letrsquos build on that and get the rest of our economy moving ahead too

My wife likes Christmas lights across the top of our house I do too Th at means itrsquos once again the annual
struggle to fi nd something mdash anything mdash that will work
Call it the curse of the fl at roofWe have whatrsquos called a
French drain system on our roof Th at means the gutter is internal therersquos no metal trough that runs along the fascia board
Th at also means therersquos no place to hookcliptie a string of lights Believe me Irsquove tried All Irsquove got are
boxes of lights to show for my failed attemptsIn the past Irsquove tried stretching strings of
mini-lights along the fascia But they just sag My wife doesnrsquot have to step too far outside the front door to give a thumbs down
A couple of years ago I switched to C9 bulbs when I discovered they had a little clip on the side Hey I thought this clip will slide up in-side the fl ashing giving me a perfectly straight line of bulbs
Th at worked just fi ne except that the plastic clips wouldnrsquot always fi t under the fl ashing edge Worse the clips being plastic would break off Th e result was more sagging bulbs One year mid-way into the Christmas lighting season I resorted to using duct tape and nails to straighten out sagging bulbs
Have I mentioned that all of this usually happens in the midst of a cold winter rain
Of course with conventional incandescent bulbs I can only connect two sets together Th at means I also must make a trip to the fl at ndash but slippery in the winter ndash roof to lay out extension cords Did I mention that it rains in the winter around here
Itrsquos gotten so bad that this summer when we were having some work done on our roof
I considered spending an additional $2500 to have exterior gutters put on the house $2500 Am I crazy Well Irsquom getting that way
Th is year in the spirit of saving the planet I bought LED bulbs Wow I thought you can string 30 or 40 sets together No more crawling around on the roof
When I took the lights out of the box I discovered that they didnrsquot have clips but since they were smaller and I fi gured a couple hun-dred push-pins would be enough to anchor all the lights Unfortunately these LED lights had twisted wires which not only donrsquot straighten out but also end up pointing the bulbs in every conceivable direction
My wife was even faster with her thumbIn desperation I went back to the store (I
think Irsquom single-handedly keeping Lowersquos prof-itable along with helping million of workers in China stay gainfully employed) bought some more C9 bulbs with the plastic clips Th ey would supplement unused C9 strings I still had from previous failed lighting attempts Yes they still had plastic clips but I fi gured if they just last this year I could redouble my eff orts at a solution next year
Did you know that diff erent manufacturers put malefemale plugs on diff erent ends of the string Th e result is that while half my light sets have clips facing the fl ashing the other half face the street and of course means they wonrsquot attach to the fl ashing
I wonrsquot say Irsquove given up on the project but more and more Irsquom remembering a old Sein-feld episode where George Costanza tells of his fatherrsquos eff ort to de-commercialize Christmas

Meat is one of the few sources of wholesome nutritious protein in food pantry visitorsrsquo diets But for many food pantry visitors meat is some-thing that rarely is put on the table Food pantries that serve the hungry often donrsquot have the resources to pro-vide meat to the people they serve
However for several years now QFC has been able to help these agencies by donating wholesome meat products that no longer meet our standards for appearance or fresh-ness Last year QFC donated 560000 pounds of meat to food pantries in Washington and Oregon This is part of QFCrsquos Grocery Rescue program
ldquoHealthy food is important for ev-eryone but particularly so for low-in-come people suffering from illnesses as well as children and seniors QFC meat donations enable people to main-tain healthier lifestyles and give peo-ple the energy everyone needs to care for themselves and their familiesrdquo says Food Lifeline Grocery Rescue Program Manager Laura Johnson
QFC stores are allowed to donate any meat product in good condition that is frozen on or before the date on the package This can include beef poultry pork and seafood as well as pre-packaged meats such as fully cooked lunch meats and hot dogs
When meat products no longer meet QFCrsquos standards for selling to our customers and become eligible to be donated it is critically important that we maintain safe handling and stor-age procedures There are very real cross contamination risks when han-dling meat For that reason we keep all meat donations separate by species while awaiting pickup We use plastic tubs provided by Oregon Food Bank and Food Lifeline the bins nest and stack and help us to separate meat by species in our meat freezer All meat donations are frozen solid before leaving the store
Practices we follow before donat-ing meat products include freezing to 0o Fahrenheit on or before the date on the package and separating the
meat by species
A Food Lifeline agency that par-ticipates in the Grocery Rescue pro-gram says ldquoThanks for the food you give to those in need We are seeing an increasing need in our community and you are a big part of why we can helprdquo
By donating product that doesnrsquot meet our selling standards QFC helped our neighbors and friends in
Western Washington and Oregon feed their families This helps people get back on their feet after experiencing challenges like losing their homes or jobs
Do you have questions about dona-tions Need additional info Want to volunteer at a local food pantry If so please contact Ken Banks at 425-462-2205

votes and 25 percent of the vote A machine recount happens with a margin less than 2000 votes and 5 percent
Laing said on election night that he was prepared
for the long haul expecting a tight race where the winner didnrsquot get more than 51 or 52 percent of the vote
Bellevuersquos was the fi rst of three recounts county staff must work through this election season A council race in Des Moines was close
enough to trigger a machine recount while races for the Enumclaw School District and the Public Hospital District will be recounted by hand
Th is recount represents an outlier in the county where many by-hand counts have come in smaller areas with only a couple hundred vot-ers In the 2011 election Bel-levue voters returned 35865 ballots or nearly 54 percent Th is turnout represented the highest of the major cities in the county showing the im-portance of this election to the city of Bellevue Among the recounts the next highest was the Enumclaw schools race with more than 8200 votes to be counted and a 53 percent turnout

A 47 year-old Kirkland woman is in stable condition at Overlake Medical Center after a wayward tire smashed through her windshield and landed in the passenger seat of her car on Tuesday morning
Anita Manueltiqui of Kirkland was driving westbound on SR-520 near the 92nd Avenue Northeast exit when a tire with part of the rim still attached broke loose from a trailer being towed by a pickup truck and ended up inside her vehicle The pickup was headed eastbound at the time and the driver stopped at the scene
State troopers are investigating whether to pursue charges against the 39 year-old Tacoma man driving the pickup which was towing a flatbed trailer loaded with some 2000
pounds of equipment

If yoursquove driven past First United Methodist Church (1934 108th Ave NE) in the past week you have noticed the characters in the Christmas story beginning to populate the front lawn
Th ese straw-stuff ed fi gures are the brainchildren of members of the congre-gation working together for the joy of telling the real Christmas story in an unusual way
By Dec 25 Joseph and Mary will reach the cow shed attended by shep-herds Th e Magi will arrive
later Wersquore having fun and we hope you will come by and watch the story unfold
Th is congrega-tion has a long history of com-munity involve-ment Maybe you are involved in some of these eff orts too making meals for the Crossroads Feeding Program gathering supplies for the Church of Mary Magdalene and Sophia Way supporting Hopelink sending clean-up
crews to assist when natural disasters occur participat-ing in a Habitat build and
hosting and helping with Tent City 4 We look forward to hosting TC4 again in another year or so
All the money raised in the gigantic spring Rummage Sale
goes to mission work most of it spent here in the greater Eastside
We love fi nding new ways
to be a good neighbor and on Dec 17 we are off ering a hands-on experience for elementary-age children who come to ldquoBethlehem Villagerdquo between 9 am and 2 pm while their parents go shopping or get other errands done You can learn more about it on our web-site wwwfumcbellevueorg but basically we are recreat-ing Bethlehem in the time of the Roman occupation
Children will make new friends chat with shopkeep-ers eager to teach them their craft and happy to talk
about the exciting happen-ings visit with some wise men about constellations and the bright star theyrsquove been studying use ham-mers saws and hand drills to create their own miniature stable in the carpentry shop and much much more
Th is year as an alterna-tive to the divisive public discourse so rampant today we are focusing on the ancient teaching ldquoLove Your Neighborrdquo and we are get-ting to know our neighbors who follow the teachings of Islam or Judaism and Bud-
dhism Representatives from the various faith communi-ties have been marvelous instructors and our ldquofi eld tripsrdquo to mosque synagogue temple and this week an Orthodox Cathedral are invaluable connections for interfaith and ecumenical dialogue We are into dis-mantling walls not creating them

The Bellevue City Council decided Monday to begin charg-ing residents for non-emergency ambulance transportation
The move was part of a slate of decisions on the part of the coun-cil and city staff to close a $65 million budget gap The move is projected to generate $11 million annually for the city
Users of the non-emergency
ambulances would pay a $600 flat fee as well as $12 to $14 a mile Bellevue was one of the last holdouts in the county in free non-emergency ambulance rides Still Councilmembers Grant De-gginger and John Chelminiak did not see these fees as an answer to the cityrsquos budget problems
ldquoThis is a service that we are going to provide whether we do this or notrdquo said Degginger ldquoIt amounts to charging people twice for the same servicerdquo
City Manager Steve Sarkozy has already proposed a lengthy list of spending cuts totaling $46 million including the elimina-tion of 17 full-time equivalent positions six of which would involve layoffs voluntary separa-tions or voluntary retirements The proposed reductions come on top of those made last year when the city reduced its work-force by 49 positions and cut $16 million from the budget
The other $16 million in cuts
involves leaving vacant positions open At risk are a number of positions including four bicycle patrol police officers a police captain and a drop in 247 daily emergency firefighter staff
Sarkozy said the cuts represent a scaling back of services to levels similar to 2007-2008 The city has attempted to avoid cuts to public safety but growth projections have slowed to molasses-like speeds
Council votes in ambulance fee to balance budget

A community organiza-tion that played a large role in the 2011 Bellevue City Council races has been given a $1000 fine for vio-lating the statersquos campaign finance laws
The organization Move Bellevue Forward was fined by the Public Disclosure Commission after it failed to register as a political com-mittee and report expenses to promote candidates
Composed of former Bellevue politicians and pro light-rail citizens Move Bellevue Forward sent out mailers endorsing council candidates Claudia Bal-ducci John Chelminiak and John Stokes all of whom won their races The group also opposed Tim Eymanrsquos tolling Initiative 1125 which lost in a statewide vote
Move Bellevue Forwardrsquos mailer was sent out Oct 18 at a cost of $6615 a portion of which likely came from local developer John Su ac-cording to the PDC because the grouprsquos bank account only had $5000 when the mailer was made
The group became a political committee Sept 27 when it first decided to send the mailer according to the PDC According to PDC regulations Move Bellevue Forward should have filed as a political committee by Oct 11 at the latest
The group filed as a one-year political body on Nov 30 ndash 24 days after the General Election Move Bellevue Forward reported receiving more than $10000 in September in October and spending more than $8000
The PDCrsquos action against
Move Bellevue Forward stemmed from an Oct 20 complaint from a resident Geoff Bidwell about the mailer where he said the group was attempting to cover up its donors
ldquoMove Bellevue Forward - which is barely a Bellevue organization since three of its five board members are based in Seattle - engaged in activity with the obvious in-tent to hide both the source and driving force behind this specific mailer and potentially many beyondrdquo Bidwell wrote
The day before Bidwellrsquos complaint Move Bellevue Forward submitted a report to the PDC disclosing the expenses for the mailer
Sue Baugh president of Move Bellevue Forward said in a statement to the PDC that the board was unaware that its actions had changed the status of the group
ldquoAt the time the pieces were mailed Move Bellevue Forward did not realize that community advocacy groups such as itself that are not organized for the pur-pose of supporting or op-posing particular candidates or ballot propositions could nonetheless be subject to reporting requirements if they publicly endorsed a candidate or took a position on an initiativerdquo Baugh wrote
Baugh argued that because the grouprsquos pri-mary purpose is not to take stances on issues or candidates the issues in the 2011 election were key to their pro-transit goals and required their participation Move Bellevue Forward should not be classified as a political committee she said
Pro light-rail community group hit with campaign finance violations
Beginning at 8 pm Monday the Bellevue City Council will hold a public meeting on whether to accept annexation of the East-gate and Tamara Hills communities
Property owners representing more than 50 percent of the assessed value of both unincorporated areas have signed petitions seeking annexation to the City of Bellevue The council was originally going to take action on them next spring but could act early to preserve a state tax credit designed to offset the cost of providing services
Next week - annexation

State regulators Wednesday issued a complaint against Puget Sound Energy alleging the utility company improp-erly charged a residential-visit disconnect fee to electricity and natural gas customers
Th e Washington Utilities and Transportation Commis-sion staff is alleging PSE committed 1639 violations of state consumer protection rules Th e commission staff also is asking the UTC to require the utility to refund customers charged the $13 fee in error
Th e alleged violations arose from an investigation that spanned from March to May of this year UTC staff found PSE was improperly charging a $13 fi eld-visit disconnect fee to customers Th e PSE representative can only charge the fee if he or she was dispatched to the residence to disconnect electric or natural gas service Under state rules PSE may not charge a disconnect-visit fee if the utility visits a customerrsquos home for a purpose other than to disconnect service such as leaving a 24-hour termination notice or collecting a payment
Th e three-member commission will set a schedule for hearing the complaint Th e company has 20 calendar days to fi le a response If proven at hearing the commission could assess PSE as much as $1000 for each violation Th e company is not allowed to pass any penalty costs to customers through rates
Bellevue-based PSE serves more than 1 million electric customers and about 750000 natural gas customers pri-marily in the Puget Sound region of Washington
Th e UTC is the state agency that regulates private inves-tor-owned electric and natural gas utilities in Washington It is the commissionrsquos responsibility to ensure regulated companies provide safe and reliable service to customers at reasonable rates while allowing them the opportunity to earn a fair profi t

MB Th eyrsquore totally easy-going Aft er I played at Boise State I played in the Arena League for 10 years so I have a history with Gruden I used to compete against Jay his younger brother who is now the off ensive coordinator with the Bengals Jay was a coach with the Orlando Preda-tors so when Jon got on the show it was pretty cool because I had the history with his brother Jaworski is heavily involved in the Arena League still and wersquove known each other over the years so when he got assigned to the show it was awesome When Jaws came on it was great and when Gruden was an-nounced it got that much better Th e guys are so relaxed leading up to the game and theyrsquore pretty self-suffi cient It seems like they are everybodyrsquos best friends on the crew
BR You have obviously
remained close to football and have a passion for it What are a few of the high-lights from your prep days
MB Th e senior year I had and being so close with my teammates and guys I grew up with is what I remember most We lost in the fi rst round of the play-off s so obviously that was disappointing But having that as my fi rst full season of high school playing it was a great memory and I knew I wanted to play in college somewhere
BR Do you keep up with the Wolverines and what do you think of where the program is today
MB Itrsquos amazing to see whatrsquos happened to Bel-levue Itrsquos great to come back and see it Where I see it the most is in USA Today when I read it on the road I see the weekly rankings and they keep creeping up Itrsquos really cool itrsquos hard to believe

Developers Wright Runstead have submitted an applica-tion for what could turn out to be the next big issue in Bel-levue the Spring District
Th e $15 billion development includes 36 acres of land now occupied by the Safeway distribution site It is planned to include a mixed-use of offi ce towers retail outlets and residences
Th e development is a transit-oriented project meaning it is primarily centered around the construction of East Link light-rail through Bellevue One of the centerpieces of the development a new hotel will have an entrance to a light-rail station according to planning documents submitted to the city
Th e project is slated to be built over a 15-year period in seven distinct phases According to Wright Runsteadrsquos appli-cation developers hope to begin construction on the project in the fi rst quarter of 2012 However city representatives said the review of the plan which does not involve a public hearing would likely take until the early summer Th ose interested can submit public comments about the plan to the city until Dec 22 at 5 pm
Th e new project is projected to bring nearly 37000 vehicle trips per day into the area on 124th Avenue Northeast south of Bel-Red Road including more than 3700 during peak evening time the busiest in Bellevue Road improvements to 120th Avenue Northeast and the creation of a new street - Northeast 15th16th - will help free traffi c once the new buildings come in Th ese are projects in Bellevuersquos budget
Th e issue of paying for the part of the project became an issue this election season Several candidates running for Bellevue City Council opposed impact fee breaks for the project citing Bellevuersquos tenuous budget situation
Th e project was an important item on the council in 2009 Th e body decided to rezone the area for light industrial and residential development Th e city and Wright Runstead reached a development agreement around that time Nat Levy can be reached at 425-453-4290

Marymoor Park was abuzz with the raising of the circus tent for the show Cavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horse on Dec 8
Cavalia includes acrobatics aerialists music dance and of course ndash equestrian stunts Its like Cirque du Soleil but with horses When the show opens Jan 24 itrsquos expected to have the same draw as Cirque shows gaining audience members from across the Eastside Greater Seattle and even across the region
It took less than 20 minutes for crews to raise the 10-story-foot-tall tent spanning more than 26000 square feet Unlike traditional circular circus tents the Cavalia tent is built to be big enough to allow the horses freedom to move during the show so the audience sits on one side and the show takes place on the opposite side
Kevin Brown director of King County Parks and Recreation said he was pleased that the show is fi nally coming to Redmond aft er years of discussing the possibility with Cavalias artistic director Normand Latourelle who cofounded Cirque du Soleil before breaking away 20 years
agoWhile Marymoor has hosted numerous Cirque shows
this will be the fi rst time it has housed a show by Cavalia mdash the name of Latourelles company as well as this particular performance Th e company additionally has another show called Odysseo playing in the south
Latourelle said the inspiration for a show with horses came in the early 2000s when he used a horse in a previ-ous show that simply walked across the stage People were transfi xed by that animal more than the human perform-ers
In an age where many people live in cities and are becoming increasingly removed from nature the chance to see a show with these majestic animals is special Latourelle said Th e relationship between human and horse goes back thousands of years Th roughout various cultures people rode horses for many aspects of life from travel to hunting Th is history is presented in the show
Even people who dont know horses come to this show and they are moved by what they see Latourelle said Its in their blood Its because of our ancestors

My favorite decorations were in 6 the lovely wa-terfront home of Diane and Paul Birkeland Upon enter-ing your eyes were imme-diately drawn to the spiral staircase that was wrapped with garland ribbons and ornaments on the right and a small decorator tree placed
on top of the piano on the left Also two more of the many designer trees were on display By far my favorite tree was the Christopher Radko ornament tree in the living room Every room
was beautifully decorated for Christmas

Meat is one of the few sources of wholesome nutritious protein in food pantry visitorsrsquo diets But for many food pantry visitors meat is some-thing that rarely is put on the table Food pantries that serve the hungry often donrsquot have the resources to pro-vide meat to the people they serve
However for several years now QFC has been able to help these agencies by donating wholesome meat products that no longer meet our standards for appearance or fresh-ness Last year QFC donated 560000 pounds of meat to food pantries in Washington and Oregon This is part of QFCrsquos Grocery Rescue program
ldquoHealthy food is important for ev-eryone but particularly so for low-in-come people suffering from illnesses as well as children and seniors QFC meat donations enable people to main-tain healthier lifestyles and give peo-ple the energy everyone needs to care for themselves and their familiesrdquo says Food Lifeline Grocery Rescue Program Manager Laura Johnson
QFC stores are allowed to donate any meat product in good condition that is frozen on or before the date on the package This can include beef poultry pork and seafood as well as pre-packaged meats such as fully cooked lunch meats and hot dogs
When meat products no longer meet QFCrsquos standards for selling to our customers and become eligible to be donated it is critically important that we maintain safe handling and stor-age procedures There are very real cross contamination risks when han-dling meat For that reason we keep all meat donations separate by species while awaiting pickup We use plastic tubs provided by Oregon Food Bank and Food Lifeline the bins nest and stack and help us to separate meat by species in our meat freezer All meat donations are frozen solid before leaving the store
Practices we follow before donat-ing meat products include freezing to 0o Fahrenheit on or before the date on the package and separating the
meat by species
A Food Lifeline agency that par-ticipates in the Grocery Rescue pro-gram says ldquoThanks for the food you give to those in need We are seeing an increasing need in our community and you are a big part of why we can helprdquo
By donating product that doesnrsquot meet our selling standards QFC helped our neighbors and friends in
Western Washington and Oregon feed their families This helps people get back on their feet after experiencing challenges like losing their homes or jobs
Do you have questions about dona-tions Need additional info Want to volunteer at a local food pantry If so please contact Ken Banks at 425-462-2205

votes and 25 percent of the vote A machine recount happens with a margin less than 2000 votes and 5 percent
Laing said on election night that he was prepared
for the long haul expecting a tight race where the winner didnrsquot get more than 51 or 52 percent of the vote
Bellevuersquos was the fi rst of three recounts county staff must work through this election season A council race in Des Moines was close
enough to trigger a machine recount while races for the Enumclaw School District and the Public Hospital District will be recounted by hand
Th is recount represents an outlier in the county where many by-hand counts have come in smaller areas with only a couple hundred vot-ers In the 2011 election Bel-levue voters returned 35865 ballots or nearly 54 percent Th is turnout represented the highest of the major cities in the county showing the im-portance of this election to the city of Bellevue Among the recounts the next highest was the Enumclaw schools race with more than 8200 votes to be counted and a 53 percent turnout

A 47 year-old Kirkland woman is in stable condition at Overlake Medical Center after a wayward tire smashed through her windshield and landed in the passenger seat of her car on Tuesday morning
Anita Manueltiqui of Kirkland was driving westbound on SR-520 near the 92nd Avenue Northeast exit when a tire with part of the rim still attached broke loose from a trailer being towed by a pickup truck and ended up inside her vehicle The pickup was headed eastbound at the time and the driver stopped at the scene
State troopers are investigating whether to pursue charges against the 39 year-old Tacoma man driving the pickup which was towing a flatbed trailer loaded with some 2000
pounds of equipment

If yoursquove driven past First United Methodist Church (1934 108th Ave NE) in the past week you have noticed the characters in the Christmas story beginning to populate the front lawn
Th ese straw-stuff ed fi gures are the brainchildren of members of the congre-gation working together for the joy of telling the real Christmas story in an unusual way
By Dec 25 Joseph and Mary will reach the cow shed attended by shep-herds Th e Magi will arrive
later Wersquore having fun and we hope you will come by and watch the story unfold
Th is congrega-tion has a long history of com-munity involve-ment Maybe you are involved in some of these eff orts too making meals for the Crossroads Feeding Program gathering supplies for the Church of Mary Magdalene and Sophia Way supporting Hopelink sending clean-up
crews to assist when natural disasters occur participat-ing in a Habitat build and
hosting and helping with Tent City 4 We look forward to hosting TC4 again in another year or so
All the money raised in the gigantic spring Rummage Sale
goes to mission work most of it spent here in the greater Eastside
We love fi nding new ways
to be a good neighbor and on Dec 17 we are off ering a hands-on experience for elementary-age children who come to ldquoBethlehem Villagerdquo between 9 am and 2 pm while their parents go shopping or get other errands done You can learn more about it on our web-site wwwfumcbellevueorg but basically we are recreat-ing Bethlehem in the time of the Roman occupation
Children will make new friends chat with shopkeep-ers eager to teach them their craft and happy to talk
about the exciting happen-ings visit with some wise men about constellations and the bright star theyrsquove been studying use ham-mers saws and hand drills to create their own miniature stable in the carpentry shop and much much more
Th is year as an alterna-tive to the divisive public discourse so rampant today we are focusing on the ancient teaching ldquoLove Your Neighborrdquo and we are get-ting to know our neighbors who follow the teachings of Islam or Judaism and Bud-
dhism Representatives from the various faith communi-ties have been marvelous instructors and our ldquofi eld tripsrdquo to mosque synagogue temple and this week an Orthodox Cathedral are invaluable connections for interfaith and ecumenical dialogue We are into dis-mantling walls not creating them

The Bellevue City Council decided Monday to begin charg-ing residents for non-emergency ambulance transportation
The move was part of a slate of decisions on the part of the coun-cil and city staff to close a $65 million budget gap The move is projected to generate $11 million annually for the city
Users of the non-emergency
ambulances would pay a $600 flat fee as well as $12 to $14 a mile Bellevue was one of the last holdouts in the county in free non-emergency ambulance rides Still Councilmembers Grant De-gginger and John Chelminiak did not see these fees as an answer to the cityrsquos budget problems
ldquoThis is a service that we are going to provide whether we do this or notrdquo said Degginger ldquoIt amounts to charging people twice for the same servicerdquo
City Manager Steve Sarkozy has already proposed a lengthy list of spending cuts totaling $46 million including the elimina-tion of 17 full-time equivalent positions six of which would involve layoffs voluntary separa-tions or voluntary retirements The proposed reductions come on top of those made last year when the city reduced its work-force by 49 positions and cut $16 million from the budget
The other $16 million in cuts
involves leaving vacant positions open At risk are a number of positions including four bicycle patrol police officers a police captain and a drop in 247 daily emergency firefighter staff
Sarkozy said the cuts represent a scaling back of services to levels similar to 2007-2008 The city has attempted to avoid cuts to public safety but growth projections have slowed to molasses-like speeds
Council votes in ambulance fee to balance budget

A community organiza-tion that played a large role in the 2011 Bellevue City Council races has been given a $1000 fine for vio-lating the statersquos campaign finance laws
The organization Move Bellevue Forward was fined by the Public Disclosure Commission after it failed to register as a political com-mittee and report expenses to promote candidates
Composed of former Bellevue politicians and pro light-rail citizens Move Bellevue Forward sent out mailers endorsing council candidates Claudia Bal-ducci John Chelminiak and John Stokes all of whom won their races The group also opposed Tim Eymanrsquos tolling Initiative 1125 which lost in a statewide vote
Move Bellevue Forwardrsquos mailer was sent out Oct 18 at a cost of $6615 a portion of which likely came from local developer John Su ac-cording to the PDC because the grouprsquos bank account only had $5000 when the mailer was made
The group became a political committee Sept 27 when it first decided to send the mailer according to the PDC According to PDC regulations Move Bellevue Forward should have filed as a political committee by Oct 11 at the latest
The group filed as a one-year political body on Nov 30 ndash 24 days after the General Election Move Bellevue Forward reported receiving more than $10000 in September in October and spending more than $8000
The PDCrsquos action against
Move Bellevue Forward stemmed from an Oct 20 complaint from a resident Geoff Bidwell about the mailer where he said the group was attempting to cover up its donors
ldquoMove Bellevue Forward - which is barely a Bellevue organization since three of its five board members are based in Seattle - engaged in activity with the obvious in-tent to hide both the source and driving force behind this specific mailer and potentially many beyondrdquo Bidwell wrote
The day before Bidwellrsquos complaint Move Bellevue Forward submitted a report to the PDC disclosing the expenses for the mailer
Sue Baugh president of Move Bellevue Forward said in a statement to the PDC that the board was unaware that its actions had changed the status of the group
ldquoAt the time the pieces were mailed Move Bellevue Forward did not realize that community advocacy groups such as itself that are not organized for the pur-pose of supporting or op-posing particular candidates or ballot propositions could nonetheless be subject to reporting requirements if they publicly endorsed a candidate or took a position on an initiativerdquo Baugh wrote
Baugh argued that because the grouprsquos pri-mary purpose is not to take stances on issues or candidates the issues in the 2011 election were key to their pro-transit goals and required their participation Move Bellevue Forward should not be classified as a political committee she said
Pro light-rail community group hit with campaign finance violations
Beginning at 8 pm Monday the Bellevue City Council will hold a public meeting on whether to accept annexation of the East-gate and Tamara Hills communities
Property owners representing more than 50 percent of the assessed value of both unincorporated areas have signed petitions seeking annexation to the City of Bellevue The council was originally going to take action on them next spring but could act early to preserve a state tax credit designed to offset the cost of providing services
Next week - annexation

State regulators Wednesday issued a complaint against Puget Sound Energy alleging the utility company improp-erly charged a residential-visit disconnect fee to electricity and natural gas customers
Th e Washington Utilities and Transportation Commis-sion staff is alleging PSE committed 1639 violations of state consumer protection rules Th e commission staff also is asking the UTC to require the utility to refund customers charged the $13 fee in error
Th e alleged violations arose from an investigation that spanned from March to May of this year UTC staff found PSE was improperly charging a $13 fi eld-visit disconnect fee to customers Th e PSE representative can only charge the fee if he or she was dispatched to the residence to disconnect electric or natural gas service Under state rules PSE may not charge a disconnect-visit fee if the utility visits a customerrsquos home for a purpose other than to disconnect service such as leaving a 24-hour termination notice or collecting a payment
Th e three-member commission will set a schedule for hearing the complaint Th e company has 20 calendar days to fi le a response If proven at hearing the commission could assess PSE as much as $1000 for each violation Th e company is not allowed to pass any penalty costs to customers through rates
Bellevue-based PSE serves more than 1 million electric customers and about 750000 natural gas customers pri-marily in the Puget Sound region of Washington
Th e UTC is the state agency that regulates private inves-tor-owned electric and natural gas utilities in Washington It is the commissionrsquos responsibility to ensure regulated companies provide safe and reliable service to customers at reasonable rates while allowing them the opportunity to earn a fair profi t

Mike Black grew up in Bellevue and was an All-KingCo selection for the Wolverines in 1986 as a place kicker and punter Aft er his prep career fi nished Black continued playing at Boise State University where he was coached by Sea-hawks quarterback and legend Jim Zorn
A lifelong Hawks fan who attended nearly all of the teamrsquos home games from 1976 until leav-ing for college in 1987 Black has been part of the ESPN-ABC crew that produces Monday Night Football and Th ursday night NCAA football for nearly a decade
Black who now resides in California works as the talent spotter and stage manager with the broadcast crew of Mike Tirico Jon Gruden and Ron Jaworski on the ESPN Monday Night Foot-
ball crew that was in Seattle for the Seahawks Week 14 division matchup with the St Louis Rams at Century Link Field
He took some time to chat with the Reporter about working with such recognizable characters in the booth the life of a production crew mem-ber and his best memories as a Wolverine
BELLEVUE REPORTER How oft en do you make it back to the Pacifi c Northwest and Bel-levue
MIKE BLACK With my schedule with col-lege football and the NFL itrsquos anytime we do a Seahawks Monday night game or the last three or four years a couple UW games here and there I hope for one a year at least
BR When yoursquore back in town what are your must-visit spots
MB Irsquove got to eat at Spud Fish and Chips I make it over to Bellevue to check out the old stomping grounds and to the UW right on the water because thatrsquos where we spread my dadrsquos ashes
BR How did you land with the Monday Night Football crew
MB ESPN took it [MNF] over in 2006 and me and Tirico have been together since before then I was on the ABC Monday Night crew doing a diff erent job the previous few years and were on the Th ursday college package before we made the switch to Monday night
BR All of the guys in the booth are quite the characters on the air Does it change when the cameras switch off
MNF is homecoming for Bellevue man

MB Th eyrsquore totally easy-going Aft er I played at Boise State I played in the Arena League for 10 years so I have a history with Gruden I used to compete against Jay his younger brother who is now the off ensive coordinator with the Bengals Jay was a coach with the Orlando Preda-tors so when Jon got on the show it was pretty cool because I had the history with his brother Jaworski is heavily involved in the Arena League still and wersquove known each other over the years so when he got assigned to the show it was awesome When Jaws came on it was great and when Gruden was an-nounced it got that much better Th e guys are so relaxed leading up to the game and theyrsquore pretty self-suffi cient It seems like they are everybodyrsquos best friends on the crew
BR You have obviously
remained close to football and have a passion for it What are a few of the high-lights from your prep days
MB Th e senior year I had and being so close with my teammates and guys I grew up with is what I remember most We lost in the fi rst round of the play-off s so obviously that was disappointing But having that as my fi rst full season of high school playing it was a great memory and I knew I wanted to play in college somewhere
BR Do you keep up with the Wolverines and what do you think of where the program is today
MB Itrsquos amazing to see whatrsquos happened to Bel-levue Itrsquos great to come back and see it Where I see it the most is in USA Today when I read it on the road I see the weekly rankings and they keep creeping up Itrsquos really cool itrsquos hard to believe

Developers Wright Runstead have submitted an applica-tion for what could turn out to be the next big issue in Bel-levue the Spring District
Th e $15 billion development includes 36 acres of land now occupied by the Safeway distribution site It is planned to include a mixed-use of offi ce towers retail outlets and residences
Th e development is a transit-oriented project meaning it is primarily centered around the construction of East Link light-rail through Bellevue One of the centerpieces of the development a new hotel will have an entrance to a light-rail station according to planning documents submitted to the city
Th e project is slated to be built over a 15-year period in seven distinct phases According to Wright Runsteadrsquos appli-cation developers hope to begin construction on the project in the fi rst quarter of 2012 However city representatives said the review of the plan which does not involve a public hearing would likely take until the early summer Th ose interested can submit public comments about the plan to the city until Dec 22 at 5 pm
Th e new project is projected to bring nearly 37000 vehicle trips per day into the area on 124th Avenue Northeast south of Bel-Red Road including more than 3700 during peak evening time the busiest in Bellevue Road improvements to 120th Avenue Northeast and the creation of a new street - Northeast 15th16th - will help free traffi c once the new buildings come in Th ese are projects in Bellevuersquos budget
Th e issue of paying for the part of the project became an issue this election season Several candidates running for Bellevue City Council opposed impact fee breaks for the project citing Bellevuersquos tenuous budget situation
Th e project was an important item on the council in 2009 Th e body decided to rezone the area for light industrial and residential development Th e city and Wright Runstead reached a development agreement around that time Nat Levy can be reached at 425-453-4290

Marymoor Park was abuzz with the raising of the circus tent for the show Cavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horse on Dec 8
Cavalia includes acrobatics aerialists music dance and of course ndash equestrian stunts Its like Cirque du Soleil but with horses When the show opens Jan 24 itrsquos expected to have the same draw as Cirque shows gaining audience members from across the Eastside Greater Seattle and even across the region
It took less than 20 minutes for crews to raise the 10-story-foot-tall tent spanning more than 26000 square feet Unlike traditional circular circus tents the Cavalia tent is built to be big enough to allow the horses freedom to move during the show so the audience sits on one side and the show takes place on the opposite side
Kevin Brown director of King County Parks and Recreation said he was pleased that the show is fi nally coming to Redmond aft er years of discussing the possibility with Cavalias artistic director Normand Latourelle who cofounded Cirque du Soleil before breaking away 20 years
agoWhile Marymoor has hosted numerous Cirque shows
this will be the fi rst time it has housed a show by Cavalia mdash the name of Latourelles company as well as this particular performance Th e company additionally has another show called Odysseo playing in the south
Latourelle said the inspiration for a show with horses came in the early 2000s when he used a horse in a previ-ous show that simply walked across the stage People were transfi xed by that animal more than the human perform-ers
In an age where many people live in cities and are becoming increasingly removed from nature the chance to see a show with these majestic animals is special Latourelle said Th e relationship between human and horse goes back thousands of years Th roughout various cultures people rode horses for many aspects of life from travel to hunting Th is history is presented in the show
Even people who dont know horses come to this show and they are moved by what they see Latourelle said Its in their blood Its because of our ancestors

alsquoCirque du Soleil with horsesrsquo headed to the Eastside
Normand Latourelle cofounded Cirque du Soleil before forming his own show lsquoCavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horsersquo which opens Jan 24 at Marymoor Park CHAD COLEMAN Bellevue Reporter
Th e Assistance League of the Eastside annual signa-ture fundraiser ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo took place on Friday Dec 9 in Kirkland Th is yearrsquos chairs were League members Kay Zatine and Susie Hino
ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo was a self-guided tour of six unique homes beautifully decorated for the holidays All proceeds from this annual event will help fund the philanthropic programs of the Assistance League of the Eastside that include Operation School Bell Assault Survivor Kits Starting Over Support and Assistance League Outreach Th ese programs provide new clothing to more than 2600 students selected by school personnel in the Lake Washington Bellevue and Northshore school districts help to restore dignity to survivors of sexual assault with clothing to replace items retained as evidence by the police and bring comfort to families seek-ing shelter from domestic violence
Each of the six homes were decorated with the seasonrsquos holiday themes and color palettes all embrac-ing the beauty of Christmas Miranda Roberts VP of communications for the Assistance League shared ldquoHouse 1 Was a twin-kling clerestory of modern living House 2 35 bins of deacutecor completed this themed house that included more than 100 Nutcrack-ers collected over the years House 3 Juxtapositioning
of contemporary and vintage Holiday collections House 4 Tastefully and elegantly decorated showcasing the view of the Lake House 5
Artful design-er deacutecor from the ceiling to fl oor with a wrap-around verandah and House 6 Heirloom decor in a classical Lake Washington
setting with over 15 deco-rated treesrdquo
My favorite decorations were in 6 the lovely wa-terfront home of Diane and Paul Birkeland Upon enter-ing your eyes were imme-diately drawn to the spiral staircase that was wrapped with garland ribbons and ornaments on the right and a small decorator tree placed
on top of the piano on the left Also two more of the many designer trees were on display By far my favorite tree was the Christopher Radko ornament tree in the living room Every room
was beautifully decorated for Christmas

A 47 year-old Kirkland woman is in stable condition at Overlake Medical Center after a wayward tire smashed through her windshield and landed in the passenger seat of her car on Tuesday morning
Anita Manueltiqui of Kirkland was driving westbound on SR-520 near the 92nd Avenue Northeast exit when a tire with part of the rim still attached broke loose from a trailer being towed by a pickup truck and ended up inside her vehicle The pickup was headed eastbound at the time and the driver stopped at the scene
State troopers are investigating whether to pursue charges against the 39 year-old Tacoma man driving the pickup which was towing a flatbed trailer loaded with some 2000
pounds of equipment

If yoursquove driven past First United Methodist Church (1934 108th Ave NE) in the past week you have noticed the characters in the Christmas story beginning to populate the front lawn
Th ese straw-stuff ed fi gures are the brainchildren of members of the congre-gation working together for the joy of telling the real Christmas story in an unusual way
By Dec 25 Joseph and Mary will reach the cow shed attended by shep-herds Th e Magi will arrive
later Wersquore having fun and we hope you will come by and watch the story unfold
Th is congrega-tion has a long history of com-munity involve-ment Maybe you are involved in some of these eff orts too making meals for the Crossroads Feeding Program gathering supplies for the Church of Mary Magdalene and Sophia Way supporting Hopelink sending clean-up
crews to assist when natural disasters occur participat-ing in a Habitat build and
hosting and helping with Tent City 4 We look forward to hosting TC4 again in another year or so
All the money raised in the gigantic spring Rummage Sale
goes to mission work most of it spent here in the greater Eastside
We love fi nding new ways
to be a good neighbor and on Dec 17 we are off ering a hands-on experience for elementary-age children who come to ldquoBethlehem Villagerdquo between 9 am and 2 pm while their parents go shopping or get other errands done You can learn more about it on our web-site wwwfumcbellevueorg but basically we are recreat-ing Bethlehem in the time of the Roman occupation
Children will make new friends chat with shopkeep-ers eager to teach them their craft and happy to talk
about the exciting happen-ings visit with some wise men about constellations and the bright star theyrsquove been studying use ham-mers saws and hand drills to create their own miniature stable in the carpentry shop and much much more
Th is year as an alterna-tive to the divisive public discourse so rampant today we are focusing on the ancient teaching ldquoLove Your Neighborrdquo and we are get-ting to know our neighbors who follow the teachings of Islam or Judaism and Bud-
dhism Representatives from the various faith communi-ties have been marvelous instructors and our ldquofi eld tripsrdquo to mosque synagogue temple and this week an Orthodox Cathedral are invaluable connections for interfaith and ecumenical dialogue We are into dis-mantling walls not creating them

The Bellevue City Council decided Monday to begin charg-ing residents for non-emergency ambulance transportation
The move was part of a slate of decisions on the part of the coun-cil and city staff to close a $65 million budget gap The move is projected to generate $11 million annually for the city
Users of the non-emergency
ambulances would pay a $600 flat fee as well as $12 to $14 a mile Bellevue was one of the last holdouts in the county in free non-emergency ambulance rides Still Councilmembers Grant De-gginger and John Chelminiak did not see these fees as an answer to the cityrsquos budget problems
ldquoThis is a service that we are going to provide whether we do this or notrdquo said Degginger ldquoIt amounts to charging people twice for the same servicerdquo
City Manager Steve Sarkozy has already proposed a lengthy list of spending cuts totaling $46 million including the elimina-tion of 17 full-time equivalent positions six of which would involve layoffs voluntary separa-tions or voluntary retirements The proposed reductions come on top of those made last year when the city reduced its work-force by 49 positions and cut $16 million from the budget
The other $16 million in cuts
involves leaving vacant positions open At risk are a number of positions including four bicycle patrol police officers a police captain and a drop in 247 daily emergency firefighter staff
Sarkozy said the cuts represent a scaling back of services to levels similar to 2007-2008 The city has attempted to avoid cuts to public safety but growth projections have slowed to molasses-like speeds
Council votes in ambulance fee to balance budget

A community organiza-tion that played a large role in the 2011 Bellevue City Council races has been given a $1000 fine for vio-lating the statersquos campaign finance laws
The organization Move Bellevue Forward was fined by the Public Disclosure Commission after it failed to register as a political com-mittee and report expenses to promote candidates
Composed of former Bellevue politicians and pro light-rail citizens Move Bellevue Forward sent out mailers endorsing council candidates Claudia Bal-ducci John Chelminiak and John Stokes all of whom won their races The group also opposed Tim Eymanrsquos tolling Initiative 1125 which lost in a statewide vote
Move Bellevue Forwardrsquos mailer was sent out Oct 18 at a cost of $6615 a portion of which likely came from local developer John Su ac-cording to the PDC because the grouprsquos bank account only had $5000 when the mailer was made
The group became a political committee Sept 27 when it first decided to send the mailer according to the PDC According to PDC regulations Move Bellevue Forward should have filed as a political committee by Oct 11 at the latest
The group filed as a one-year political body on Nov 30 ndash 24 days after the General Election Move Bellevue Forward reported receiving more than $10000 in September in October and spending more than $8000
The PDCrsquos action against
Move Bellevue Forward stemmed from an Oct 20 complaint from a resident Geoff Bidwell about the mailer where he said the group was attempting to cover up its donors
ldquoMove Bellevue Forward - which is barely a Bellevue organization since three of its five board members are based in Seattle - engaged in activity with the obvious in-tent to hide both the source and driving force behind this specific mailer and potentially many beyondrdquo Bidwell wrote
The day before Bidwellrsquos complaint Move Bellevue Forward submitted a report to the PDC disclosing the expenses for the mailer
Sue Baugh president of Move Bellevue Forward said in a statement to the PDC that the board was unaware that its actions had changed the status of the group
ldquoAt the time the pieces were mailed Move Bellevue Forward did not realize that community advocacy groups such as itself that are not organized for the pur-pose of supporting or op-posing particular candidates or ballot propositions could nonetheless be subject to reporting requirements if they publicly endorsed a candidate or took a position on an initiativerdquo Baugh wrote
Baugh argued that because the grouprsquos pri-mary purpose is not to take stances on issues or candidates the issues in the 2011 election were key to their pro-transit goals and required their participation Move Bellevue Forward should not be classified as a political committee she said
Pro light-rail community group hit with campaign finance violations
Beginning at 8 pm Monday the Bellevue City Council will hold a public meeting on whether to accept annexation of the East-gate and Tamara Hills communities
Property owners representing more than 50 percent of the assessed value of both unincorporated areas have signed petitions seeking annexation to the City of Bellevue The council was originally going to take action on them next spring but could act early to preserve a state tax credit designed to offset the cost of providing services
Next week - annexation

Th e alleged violations arose from an investigation that spanned from March to May of this year UTC staff found PSE was improperly charging a $13 fi eld-visit disconnect fee to customers Th e PSE representative can only charge the fee if he or she was dispatched to the residence to disconnect electric or natural gas service Under state rules PSE may not charge a disconnect-visit fee if the utility visits a customerrsquos home for a purpose other than to disconnect service such as leaving a 24-hour termination notice or collecting a payment
Th e three-member commission will set a schedule for hearing the complaint Th e company has 20 calendar days to fi le a response If proven at hearing the commission could assess PSE as much as $1000 for each violation Th e company is not allowed to pass any penalty costs to customers through rates
Bellevue-based PSE serves more than 1 million electric customers and about 750000 natural gas customers pri-marily in the Puget Sound region of Washington
Th e UTC is the state agency that regulates private inves-tor-owned electric and natural gas utilities in Washington It is the commissionrsquos responsibility to ensure regulated companies provide safe and reliable service to customers at reasonable rates while allowing them the opportunity to earn a fair profi t

Mike Black grew up in Bellevue and was an All-KingCo selection for the Wolverines in 1986 as a place kicker and punter Aft er his prep career fi nished Black continued playing at Boise State University where he was coached by Sea-hawks quarterback and legend Jim Zorn
A lifelong Hawks fan who attended nearly all of the teamrsquos home games from 1976 until leav-ing for college in 1987 Black has been part of the ESPN-ABC crew that produces Monday Night Football and Th ursday night NCAA football for nearly a decade
Black who now resides in California works as the talent spotter and stage manager with the broadcast crew of Mike Tirico Jon Gruden and Ron Jaworski on the ESPN Monday Night Foot-
ball crew that was in Seattle for the Seahawks Week 14 division matchup with the St Louis Rams at Century Link Field
He took some time to chat with the Reporter about working with such recognizable characters in the booth the life of a production crew mem-ber and his best memories as a Wolverine
BELLEVUE REPORTER How oft en do you make it back to the Pacifi c Northwest and Bel-levue
MIKE BLACK With my schedule with col-lege football and the NFL itrsquos anytime we do a Seahawks Monday night game or the last three or four years a couple UW games here and there I hope for one a year at least
BR When yoursquore back in town what are your must-visit spots
MB Irsquove got to eat at Spud Fish and Chips I make it over to Bellevue to check out the old stomping grounds and to the UW right on the water because thatrsquos where we spread my dadrsquos ashes
BR How did you land with the Monday Night Football crew
MB ESPN took it [MNF] over in 2006 and me and Tirico have been together since before then I was on the ABC Monday Night crew doing a diff erent job the previous few years and were on the Th ursday college package before we made the switch to Monday night
BR All of the guys in the booth are quite the characters on the air Does it change when the cameras switch off
MNF is homecoming for Bellevue man

MB Th eyrsquore totally easy-going Aft er I played at Boise State I played in the Arena League for 10 years so I have a history with Gruden I used to compete against Jay his younger brother who is now the off ensive coordinator with the Bengals Jay was a coach with the Orlando Preda-tors so when Jon got on the show it was pretty cool because I had the history with his brother Jaworski is heavily involved in the Arena League still and wersquove known each other over the years so when he got assigned to the show it was awesome When Jaws came on it was great and when Gruden was an-nounced it got that much better Th e guys are so relaxed leading up to the game and theyrsquore pretty self-suffi cient It seems like they are everybodyrsquos best friends on the crew
BR You have obviously
remained close to football and have a passion for it What are a few of the high-lights from your prep days
MB Th e senior year I had and being so close with my teammates and guys I grew up with is what I remember most We lost in the fi rst round of the play-off s so obviously that was disappointing But having that as my fi rst full season of high school playing it was a great memory and I knew I wanted to play in college somewhere
BR Do you keep up with the Wolverines and what do you think of where the program is today
MB Itrsquos amazing to see whatrsquos happened to Bel-levue Itrsquos great to come back and see it Where I see it the most is in USA Today when I read it on the road I see the weekly rankings and they keep creeping up Itrsquos really cool itrsquos hard to believe

Developers Wright Runstead have submitted an applica-tion for what could turn out to be the next big issue in Bel-levue the Spring District
Th e $15 billion development includes 36 acres of land now occupied by the Safeway distribution site It is planned to include a mixed-use of offi ce towers retail outlets and residences
Th e development is a transit-oriented project meaning it is primarily centered around the construction of East Link light-rail through Bellevue One of the centerpieces of the development a new hotel will have an entrance to a light-rail station according to planning documents submitted to the city
Th e project is slated to be built over a 15-year period in seven distinct phases According to Wright Runsteadrsquos appli-cation developers hope to begin construction on the project in the fi rst quarter of 2012 However city representatives said the review of the plan which does not involve a public hearing would likely take until the early summer Th ose interested can submit public comments about the plan to the city until Dec 22 at 5 pm
Th e new project is projected to bring nearly 37000 vehicle trips per day into the area on 124th Avenue Northeast south of Bel-Red Road including more than 3700 during peak evening time the busiest in Bellevue Road improvements to 120th Avenue Northeast and the creation of a new street - Northeast 15th16th - will help free traffi c once the new buildings come in Th ese are projects in Bellevuersquos budget
Th e issue of paying for the part of the project became an issue this election season Several candidates running for Bellevue City Council opposed impact fee breaks for the project citing Bellevuersquos tenuous budget situation
Th e project was an important item on the council in 2009 Th e body decided to rezone the area for light industrial and residential development Th e city and Wright Runstead reached a development agreement around that time Nat Levy can be reached at 425-453-4290

Marymoor Park was abuzz with the raising of the circus tent for the show Cavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horse on Dec 8
Cavalia includes acrobatics aerialists music dance and of course ndash equestrian stunts Its like Cirque du Soleil but with horses When the show opens Jan 24 itrsquos expected to have the same draw as Cirque shows gaining audience members from across the Eastside Greater Seattle and even across the region
It took less than 20 minutes for crews to raise the 10-story-foot-tall tent spanning more than 26000 square feet Unlike traditional circular circus tents the Cavalia tent is built to be big enough to allow the horses freedom to move during the show so the audience sits on one side and the show takes place on the opposite side
Kevin Brown director of King County Parks and Recreation said he was pleased that the show is fi nally coming to Redmond aft er years of discussing the possibility with Cavalias artistic director Normand Latourelle who cofounded Cirque du Soleil before breaking away 20 years
agoWhile Marymoor has hosted numerous Cirque shows
this will be the fi rst time it has housed a show by Cavalia mdash the name of Latourelles company as well as this particular performance Th e company additionally has another show called Odysseo playing in the south
Latourelle said the inspiration for a show with horses came in the early 2000s when he used a horse in a previ-ous show that simply walked across the stage People were transfi xed by that animal more than the human perform-ers
In an age where many people live in cities and are becoming increasingly removed from nature the chance to see a show with these majestic animals is special Latourelle said Th e relationship between human and horse goes back thousands of years Th roughout various cultures people rode horses for many aspects of life from travel to hunting Th is history is presented in the show
Even people who dont know horses come to this show and they are moved by what they see Latourelle said Its in their blood Its because of our ancestors

Where about town Irsquove been Th e opening night of Burlesque Nutcracker at Triple
Door Wowza Whoever says burlesque isnrsquot an art form has clearly never seen Lilly Verlaine a classical ballet dancer and burlesque artist
If you have not seen ldquoTh e Muppetsrdquo movie yet I as-sure you that itrsquos worthy of more than just an eventual add to the Netfl ix queue Go see it on the big screen While itrsquos not Jim Hensen and Frank Oz behind Kermit and Miss Piggy the fi lm was done with such love and clearly by people who grew up with the Muppets (like I did) Tear-jerking moments included Kermyrsquos rendition of ldquoRainbow Connectionrdquo Th e only downside to the fi lm is that Selena Gomez is in it (no off ense tweens)

alsquoCirque du Soleil with horsesrsquo headed to the Eastside
Normand Latourelle cofounded Cirque du Soleil before forming his own show lsquoCavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horsersquo which opens Jan 24 at Marymoor Park CHAD COLEMAN Bellevue Reporter
Th e Assistance League of the Eastside annual signa-ture fundraiser ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo took place on Friday Dec 9 in Kirkland Th is yearrsquos chairs were League members Kay Zatine and Susie Hino
ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo was a self-guided tour of six unique homes beautifully decorated for the holidays All proceeds from this annual event will help fund the philanthropic programs of the Assistance League of the Eastside that include Operation School Bell Assault Survivor Kits Starting Over Support and Assistance League Outreach Th ese programs provide new clothing to more than 2600 students selected by school personnel in the Lake Washington Bellevue and Northshore school districts help to restore dignity to survivors of sexual assault with clothing to replace items retained as evidence by the police and bring comfort to families seek-ing shelter from domestic violence
Each of the six homes were decorated with the seasonrsquos holiday themes and color palettes all embrac-ing the beauty of Christmas Miranda Roberts VP of communications for the Assistance League shared ldquoHouse 1 Was a twin-kling clerestory of modern living House 2 35 bins of deacutecor completed this themed house that included more than 100 Nutcrack-ers collected over the years House 3 Juxtapositioning
of contemporary and vintage Holiday collections House 4 Tastefully and elegantly decorated showcasing the view of the Lake House 5
Artful design-er deacutecor from the ceiling to fl oor with a wrap-around verandah and House 6 Heirloom decor in a classical Lake Washington
setting with over 15 deco-rated treesrdquo
My favorite decorations were in 6 the lovely wa-terfront home of Diane and Paul Birkeland Upon enter-ing your eyes were imme-diately drawn to the spiral staircase that was wrapped with garland ribbons and ornaments on the right and a small decorator tree placed
on top of the piano on the left Also two more of the many designer trees were on display By far my favorite tree was the Christopher Radko ornament tree in the living room Every room
was beautifully decorated for Christmas

All the money raised in the gigantic spring Rummage Sale
goes to mission work most of it spent here in the greater Eastside
We love fi nding new ways
to be a good neighbor and on Dec 17 we are off ering a hands-on experience for elementary-age children who come to ldquoBethlehem Villagerdquo between 9 am and 2 pm while their parents go shopping or get other errands done You can learn more about it on our web-site wwwfumcbellevueorg but basically we are recreat-ing Bethlehem in the time of the Roman occupation
Children will make new friends chat with shopkeep-ers eager to teach them their craft and happy to talk
about the exciting happen-ings visit with some wise men about constellations and the bright star theyrsquove been studying use ham-mers saws and hand drills to create their own miniature stable in the carpentry shop and much much more
Th is year as an alterna-tive to the divisive public discourse so rampant today we are focusing on the ancient teaching ldquoLove Your Neighborrdquo and we are get-ting to know our neighbors who follow the teachings of Islam or Judaism and Bud-
dhism Representatives from the various faith communi-ties have been marvelous instructors and our ldquofi eld tripsrdquo to mosque synagogue temple and this week an Orthodox Cathedral are invaluable connections for interfaith and ecumenical dialogue We are into dis-mantling walls not creating them

The Bellevue City Council decided Monday to begin charg-ing residents for non-emergency ambulance transportation
The move was part of a slate of decisions on the part of the coun-cil and city staff to close a $65 million budget gap The move is projected to generate $11 million annually for the city
Users of the non-emergency
ambulances would pay a $600 flat fee as well as $12 to $14 a mile Bellevue was one of the last holdouts in the county in free non-emergency ambulance rides Still Councilmembers Grant De-gginger and John Chelminiak did not see these fees as an answer to the cityrsquos budget problems
ldquoThis is a service that we are going to provide whether we do this or notrdquo said Degginger ldquoIt amounts to charging people twice for the same servicerdquo
City Manager Steve Sarkozy has already proposed a lengthy list of spending cuts totaling $46 million including the elimina-tion of 17 full-time equivalent positions six of which would involve layoffs voluntary separa-tions or voluntary retirements The proposed reductions come on top of those made last year when the city reduced its work-force by 49 positions and cut $16 million from the budget
The other $16 million in cuts
involves leaving vacant positions open At risk are a number of positions including four bicycle patrol police officers a police captain and a drop in 247 daily emergency firefighter staff
Sarkozy said the cuts represent a scaling back of services to levels similar to 2007-2008 The city has attempted to avoid cuts to public safety but growth projections have slowed to molasses-like speeds
Council votes in ambulance fee to balance budget

A community organiza-tion that played a large role in the 2011 Bellevue City Council races has been given a $1000 fine for vio-lating the statersquos campaign finance laws
The organization Move Bellevue Forward was fined by the Public Disclosure Commission after it failed to register as a political com-mittee and report expenses to promote candidates
Composed of former Bellevue politicians and pro light-rail citizens Move Bellevue Forward sent out mailers endorsing council candidates Claudia Bal-ducci John Chelminiak and John Stokes all of whom won their races The group also opposed Tim Eymanrsquos tolling Initiative 1125 which lost in a statewide vote
Move Bellevue Forwardrsquos mailer was sent out Oct 18 at a cost of $6615 a portion of which likely came from local developer John Su ac-cording to the PDC because the grouprsquos bank account only had $5000 when the mailer was made
The group became a political committee Sept 27 when it first decided to send the mailer according to the PDC According to PDC regulations Move Bellevue Forward should have filed as a political committee by Oct 11 at the latest
The group filed as a one-year political body on Nov 30 ndash 24 days after the General Election Move Bellevue Forward reported receiving more than $10000 in September in October and spending more than $8000
The PDCrsquos action against
Move Bellevue Forward stemmed from an Oct 20 complaint from a resident Geoff Bidwell about the mailer where he said the group was attempting to cover up its donors
ldquoMove Bellevue Forward - which is barely a Bellevue organization since three of its five board members are based in Seattle - engaged in activity with the obvious in-tent to hide both the source and driving force behind this specific mailer and potentially many beyondrdquo Bidwell wrote
The day before Bidwellrsquos complaint Move Bellevue Forward submitted a report to the PDC disclosing the expenses for the mailer
Sue Baugh president of Move Bellevue Forward said in a statement to the PDC that the board was unaware that its actions had changed the status of the group
ldquoAt the time the pieces were mailed Move Bellevue Forward did not realize that community advocacy groups such as itself that are not organized for the pur-pose of supporting or op-posing particular candidates or ballot propositions could nonetheless be subject to reporting requirements if they publicly endorsed a candidate or took a position on an initiativerdquo Baugh wrote
Baugh argued that because the grouprsquos pri-mary purpose is not to take stances on issues or candidates the issues in the 2011 election were key to their pro-transit goals and required their participation Move Bellevue Forward should not be classified as a political committee she said
Pro light-rail community group hit with campaign finance violations
Beginning at 8 pm Monday the Bellevue City Council will hold a public meeting on whether to accept annexation of the East-gate and Tamara Hills communities
Property owners representing more than 50 percent of the assessed value of both unincorporated areas have signed petitions seeking annexation to the City of Bellevue The council was originally going to take action on them next spring but could act early to preserve a state tax credit designed to offset the cost of providing services
Next week - annexation

State regulators Wednesday issued a complaint against Puget Sound Energy alleging the utility company improp-erly charged a residential-visit disconnect fee to electricity and natural gas customers
Th e Washington Utilities and Transportation Commis-sion staff is alleging PSE committed 1639 violations of state consumer protection rules Th e commission staff also is asking the UTC to require the utility to refund customers charged the $13 fee in error
Th e alleged violations arose from an investigation that spanned from March to May of this year UTC staff found PSE was improperly charging a $13 fi eld-visit disconnect fee to customers Th e PSE representative can only charge the fee if he or she was dispatched to the residence to disconnect electric or natural gas service Under state rules PSE may not charge a disconnect-visit fee if the utility visits a customerrsquos home for a purpose other than to disconnect service such as leaving a 24-hour termination notice or collecting a payment
Th e three-member commission will set a schedule for hearing the complaint Th e company has 20 calendar days to fi le a response If proven at hearing the commission could assess PSE as much as $1000 for each violation Th e company is not allowed to pass any penalty costs to customers through rates
Bellevue-based PSE serves more than 1 million electric customers and about 750000 natural gas customers pri-marily in the Puget Sound region of Washington
Th e UTC is the state agency that regulates private inves-tor-owned electric and natural gas utilities in Washington It is the commissionrsquos responsibility to ensure regulated companies provide safe and reliable service to customers at reasonable rates while allowing them the opportunity to earn a fair profi t

Mike Black grew up in Bellevue and was an All-KingCo selection for the Wolverines in 1986 as a place kicker and punter Aft er his prep career fi nished Black continued playing at Boise State University where he was coached by Sea-hawks quarterback and legend Jim Zorn
A lifelong Hawks fan who attended nearly all of the teamrsquos home games from 1976 until leav-ing for college in 1987 Black has been part of the ESPN-ABC crew that produces Monday Night Football and Th ursday night NCAA football for nearly a decade
Black who now resides in California works as the talent spotter and stage manager with the broadcast crew of Mike Tirico Jon Gruden and Ron Jaworski on the ESPN Monday Night Foot-
ball crew that was in Seattle for the Seahawks Week 14 division matchup with the St Louis Rams at Century Link Field
He took some time to chat with the Reporter about working with such recognizable characters in the booth the life of a production crew mem-ber and his best memories as a Wolverine
BELLEVUE REPORTER How oft en do you make it back to the Pacifi c Northwest and Bel-levue
MIKE BLACK With my schedule with col-lege football and the NFL itrsquos anytime we do a Seahawks Monday night game or the last three or four years a couple UW games here and there I hope for one a year at least
BR When yoursquore back in town what are your must-visit spots
MB Irsquove got to eat at Spud Fish and Chips I make it over to Bellevue to check out the old stomping grounds and to the UW right on the water because thatrsquos where we spread my dadrsquos ashes
BR How did you land with the Monday Night Football crew
MB ESPN took it [MNF] over in 2006 and me and Tirico have been together since before then I was on the ABC Monday Night crew doing a diff erent job the previous few years and were on the Th ursday college package before we made the switch to Monday night
BR All of the guys in the booth are quite the characters on the air Does it change when the cameras switch off
MNF is homecoming for Bellevue man

MB Th eyrsquore totally easy-going Aft er I played at Boise State I played in the Arena League for 10 years so I have a history with Gruden I used to compete against Jay his younger brother who is now the off ensive coordinator with the Bengals Jay was a coach with the Orlando Preda-tors so when Jon got on the show it was pretty cool because I had the history with his brother Jaworski is heavily involved in the Arena League still and wersquove known each other over the years so when he got assigned to the show it was awesome When Jaws came on it was great and when Gruden was an-nounced it got that much better Th e guys are so relaxed leading up to the game and theyrsquore pretty self-suffi cient It seems like they are everybodyrsquos best friends on the crew
BR You have obviously
remained close to football and have a passion for it What are a few of the high-lights from your prep days
MB Th e senior year I had and being so close with my teammates and guys I grew up with is what I remember most We lost in the fi rst round of the play-off s so obviously that was disappointing But having that as my fi rst full season of high school playing it was a great memory and I knew I wanted to play in college somewhere
BR Do you keep up with the Wolverines and what do you think of where the program is today
MB Itrsquos amazing to see whatrsquos happened to Bel-levue Itrsquos great to come back and see it Where I see it the most is in USA Today when I read it on the road I see the weekly rankings and they keep creeping up Itrsquos really cool itrsquos hard to believe

Developers Wright Runstead have submitted an applica-tion for what could turn out to be the next big issue in Bel-levue the Spring District
Th e $15 billion development includes 36 acres of land now occupied by the Safeway distribution site It is planned to include a mixed-use of offi ce towers retail outlets and residences
Th e development is a transit-oriented project meaning it is primarily centered around the construction of East Link light-rail through Bellevue One of the centerpieces of the development a new hotel will have an entrance to a light-rail station according to planning documents submitted to the city
Th e project is slated to be built over a 15-year period in seven distinct phases According to Wright Runsteadrsquos appli-cation developers hope to begin construction on the project in the fi rst quarter of 2012 However city representatives said the review of the plan which does not involve a public hearing would likely take until the early summer Th ose interested can submit public comments about the plan to the city until Dec 22 at 5 pm
Th e new project is projected to bring nearly 37000 vehicle trips per day into the area on 124th Avenue Northeast south of Bel-Red Road including more than 3700 during peak evening time the busiest in Bellevue Road improvements to 120th Avenue Northeast and the creation of a new street - Northeast 15th16th - will help free traffi c once the new buildings come in Th ese are projects in Bellevuersquos budget
Th e issue of paying for the part of the project became an issue this election season Several candidates running for Bellevue City Council opposed impact fee breaks for the project citing Bellevuersquos tenuous budget situation
Th e project was an important item on the council in 2009 Th e body decided to rezone the area for light industrial and residential development Th e city and Wright Runstead reached a development agreement around that time Nat Levy can be reached at 425-453-4290

Marymoor Park was abuzz with the raising of the circus tent for the show Cavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horse on Dec 8
Cavalia includes acrobatics aerialists music dance and of course ndash equestrian stunts Its like Cirque du Soleil but with horses When the show opens Jan 24 itrsquos expected to have the same draw as Cirque shows gaining audience members from across the Eastside Greater Seattle and even across the region
It took less than 20 minutes for crews to raise the 10-story-foot-tall tent spanning more than 26000 square feet Unlike traditional circular circus tents the Cavalia tent is built to be big enough to allow the horses freedom to move during the show so the audience sits on one side and the show takes place on the opposite side
Kevin Brown director of King County Parks and Recreation said he was pleased that the show is fi nally coming to Redmond aft er years of discussing the possibility with Cavalias artistic director Normand Latourelle who cofounded Cirque du Soleil before breaking away 20 years
agoWhile Marymoor has hosted numerous Cirque shows
this will be the fi rst time it has housed a show by Cavalia mdash the name of Latourelles company as well as this particular performance Th e company additionally has another show called Odysseo playing in the south
Latourelle said the inspiration for a show with horses came in the early 2000s when he used a horse in a previ-ous show that simply walked across the stage People were transfi xed by that animal more than the human perform-ers
In an age where many people live in cities and are becoming increasingly removed from nature the chance to see a show with these majestic animals is special Latourelle said Th e relationship between human and horse goes back thousands of years Th roughout various cultures people rode horses for many aspects of life from travel to hunting Th is history is presented in the show
Even people who dont know horses come to this show and they are moved by what they see Latourelle said Its in their blood Its because of our ancestors

alsquoCirque du Soleil with horsesrsquo headed to the Eastside
Normand Latourelle cofounded Cirque du Soleil before forming his own show lsquoCavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horsersquo which opens Jan 24 at Marymoor Park CHAD COLEMAN Bellevue Reporter
Th e Assistance League of the Eastside annual signa-ture fundraiser ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo took place on Friday Dec 9 in Kirkland Th is yearrsquos chairs were League members Kay Zatine and Susie Hino
ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo was a self-guided tour of six unique homes beautifully decorated for the holidays All proceeds from this annual event will help fund the philanthropic programs of the Assistance League of the Eastside that include Operation School Bell Assault Survivor Kits Starting Over Support and Assistance League Outreach Th ese programs provide new clothing to more than 2600 students selected by school personnel in the Lake Washington Bellevue and Northshore school districts help to restore dignity to survivors of sexual assault with clothing to replace items retained as evidence by the police and bring comfort to families seek-ing shelter from domestic violence
Each of the six homes were decorated with the seasonrsquos holiday themes and color palettes all embrac-ing the beauty of Christmas Miranda Roberts VP of communications for the Assistance League shared ldquoHouse 1 Was a twin-kling clerestory of modern living House 2 35 bins of deacutecor completed this themed house that included more than 100 Nutcrack-ers collected over the years House 3 Juxtapositioning
of contemporary and vintage Holiday collections House 4 Tastefully and elegantly decorated showcasing the view of the Lake House 5
Artful design-er deacutecor from the ceiling to fl oor with a wrap-around verandah and House 6 Heirloom decor in a classical Lake Washington
setting with over 15 deco-rated treesrdquo
My favorite decorations were in 6 the lovely wa-terfront home of Diane and Paul Birkeland Upon enter-ing your eyes were imme-diately drawn to the spiral staircase that was wrapped with garland ribbons and ornaments on the right and a small decorator tree placed
on top of the piano on the left Also two more of the many designer trees were on display By far my favorite tree was the Christopher Radko ornament tree in the living room Every room
was beautifully decorated for Christmas

The Bellevue City Council decided Monday to begin charg-ing residents for non-emergency ambulance transportation
The move was part of a slate of decisions on the part of the coun-cil and city staff to close a $65 million budget gap The move is projected to generate $11 million annually for the city
Users of the non-emergency
ambulances would pay a $600 flat fee as well as $12 to $14 a mile Bellevue was one of the last holdouts in the county in free non-emergency ambulance rides Still Councilmembers Grant De-gginger and John Chelminiak did not see these fees as an answer to the cityrsquos budget problems
ldquoThis is a service that we are going to provide whether we do this or notrdquo said Degginger ldquoIt amounts to charging people twice for the same servicerdquo
City Manager Steve Sarkozy has already proposed a lengthy list of spending cuts totaling $46 million including the elimina-tion of 17 full-time equivalent positions six of which would involve layoffs voluntary separa-tions or voluntary retirements The proposed reductions come on top of those made last year when the city reduced its work-force by 49 positions and cut $16 million from the budget
The other $16 million in cuts
involves leaving vacant positions open At risk are a number of positions including four bicycle patrol police officers a police captain and a drop in 247 daily emergency firefighter staff
Sarkozy said the cuts represent a scaling back of services to levels similar to 2007-2008 The city has attempted to avoid cuts to public safety but growth projections have slowed to molasses-like speeds
Council votes in ambulance fee to balance budget

A community organiza-tion that played a large role in the 2011 Bellevue City Council races has been given a $1000 fine for vio-lating the statersquos campaign finance laws
The organization Move Bellevue Forward was fined by the Public Disclosure Commission after it failed to register as a political com-mittee and report expenses to promote candidates
Composed of former Bellevue politicians and pro light-rail citizens Move Bellevue Forward sent out mailers endorsing council candidates Claudia Bal-ducci John Chelminiak and John Stokes all of whom won their races The group also opposed Tim Eymanrsquos tolling Initiative 1125 which lost in a statewide vote
Move Bellevue Forwardrsquos mailer was sent out Oct 18 at a cost of $6615 a portion of which likely came from local developer John Su ac-cording to the PDC because the grouprsquos bank account only had $5000 when the mailer was made
The group became a political committee Sept 27 when it first decided to send the mailer according to the PDC According to PDC regulations Move Bellevue Forward should have filed as a political committee by Oct 11 at the latest
The group filed as a one-year political body on Nov 30 ndash 24 days after the General Election Move Bellevue Forward reported receiving more than $10000 in September in October and spending more than $8000
The PDCrsquos action against
Move Bellevue Forward stemmed from an Oct 20 complaint from a resident Geoff Bidwell about the mailer where he said the group was attempting to cover up its donors
ldquoMove Bellevue Forward - which is barely a Bellevue organization since three of its five board members are based in Seattle - engaged in activity with the obvious in-tent to hide both the source and driving force behind this specific mailer and potentially many beyondrdquo Bidwell wrote
The day before Bidwellrsquos complaint Move Bellevue Forward submitted a report to the PDC disclosing the expenses for the mailer
Sue Baugh president of Move Bellevue Forward said in a statement to the PDC that the board was unaware that its actions had changed the status of the group
ldquoAt the time the pieces were mailed Move Bellevue Forward did not realize that community advocacy groups such as itself that are not organized for the pur-pose of supporting or op-posing particular candidates or ballot propositions could nonetheless be subject to reporting requirements if they publicly endorsed a candidate or took a position on an initiativerdquo Baugh wrote
Baugh argued that because the grouprsquos pri-mary purpose is not to take stances on issues or candidates the issues in the 2011 election were key to their pro-transit goals and required their participation Move Bellevue Forward should not be classified as a political committee she said
Pro light-rail community group hit with campaign finance violations
Beginning at 8 pm Monday the Bellevue City Council will hold a public meeting on whether to accept annexation of the East-gate and Tamara Hills communities
Property owners representing more than 50 percent of the assessed value of both unincorporated areas have signed petitions seeking annexation to the City of Bellevue The council was originally going to take action on them next spring but could act early to preserve a state tax credit designed to offset the cost of providing services
Next week - annexation

State regulators Wednesday issued a complaint against Puget Sound Energy alleging the utility company improp-erly charged a residential-visit disconnect fee to electricity and natural gas customers
Th e Washington Utilities and Transportation Commis-sion staff is alleging PSE committed 1639 violations of state consumer protection rules Th e commission staff also is asking the UTC to require the utility to refund customers charged the $13 fee in error
Th e alleged violations arose from an investigation that spanned from March to May of this year UTC staff found PSE was improperly charging a $13 fi eld-visit disconnect fee to customers Th e PSE representative can only charge the fee if he or she was dispatched to the residence to disconnect electric or natural gas service Under state rules PSE may not charge a disconnect-visit fee if the utility visits a customerrsquos home for a purpose other than to disconnect service such as leaving a 24-hour termination notice or collecting a payment
Th e three-member commission will set a schedule for hearing the complaint Th e company has 20 calendar days to fi le a response If proven at hearing the commission could assess PSE as much as $1000 for each violation Th e company is not allowed to pass any penalty costs to customers through rates
Bellevue-based PSE serves more than 1 million electric customers and about 750000 natural gas customers pri-marily in the Puget Sound region of Washington
Th e UTC is the state agency that regulates private inves-tor-owned electric and natural gas utilities in Washington It is the commissionrsquos responsibility to ensure regulated companies provide safe and reliable service to customers at reasonable rates while allowing them the opportunity to earn a fair profi t

A lifelong Hawks fan who attended nearly all of the teamrsquos home games from 1976 until leav-ing for college in 1987 Black has been part of the ESPN-ABC crew that produces Monday Night Football and Th ursday night NCAA football for nearly a decade
Black who now resides in California works as the talent spotter and stage manager with the broadcast crew of Mike Tirico Jon Gruden and Ron Jaworski on the ESPN Monday Night Foot-
ball crew that was in Seattle for the Seahawks Week 14 division matchup with the St Louis Rams at Century Link Field
He took some time to chat with the Reporter about working with such recognizable characters in the booth the life of a production crew mem-ber and his best memories as a Wolverine

MB Th eyrsquore totally easy-going Aft er I played at Boise State I played in the Arena League for 10 years so I have a history with Gruden I used to compete against Jay his younger brother who is now the off ensive coordinator with the Bengals Jay was a coach with the Orlando Preda-tors so when Jon got on the show it was pretty cool because I had the history with his brother Jaworski is heavily involved in the Arena League still and wersquove known each other over the years so when he got assigned to the show it was awesome When Jaws came on it was great and when Gruden was an-nounced it got that much better Th e guys are so relaxed leading up to the game and theyrsquore pretty self-suffi cient It seems like they are everybodyrsquos best friends on the crew
BR You have obviously
remained close to football and have a passion for it What are a few of the high-lights from your prep days
MB Th e senior year I had and being so close with my teammates and guys I grew up with is what I remember most We lost in the fi rst round of the play-off s so obviously that was disappointing But having that as my fi rst full season of high school playing it was a great memory and I knew I wanted to play in college somewhere
BR Do you keep up with the Wolverines and what do you think of where the program is today
MB Itrsquos amazing to see whatrsquos happened to Bel-levue Itrsquos great to come back and see it Where I see it the most is in USA Today when I read it on the road I see the weekly rankings and they keep creeping up Itrsquos really cool itrsquos hard to believe

Developers Wright Runstead have submitted an applica-tion for what could turn out to be the next big issue in Bel-levue the Spring District
Th e $15 billion development includes 36 acres of land now occupied by the Safeway distribution site It is planned to include a mixed-use of offi ce towers retail outlets and residences
Th e development is a transit-oriented project meaning it is primarily centered around the construction of East Link light-rail through Bellevue One of the centerpieces of the development a new hotel will have an entrance to a light-rail station according to planning documents submitted to the city
Th e project is slated to be built over a 15-year period in seven distinct phases According to Wright Runsteadrsquos appli-cation developers hope to begin construction on the project in the fi rst quarter of 2012 However city representatives said the review of the plan which does not involve a public hearing would likely take until the early summer Th ose interested can submit public comments about the plan to the city until Dec 22 at 5 pm
Th e new project is projected to bring nearly 37000 vehicle trips per day into the area on 124th Avenue Northeast south of Bel-Red Road including more than 3700 during peak evening time the busiest in Bellevue Road improvements to 120th Avenue Northeast and the creation of a new street - Northeast 15th16th - will help free traffi c once the new buildings come in Th ese are projects in Bellevuersquos budget
Th e issue of paying for the part of the project became an issue this election season Several candidates running for Bellevue City Council opposed impact fee breaks for the project citing Bellevuersquos tenuous budget situation
Th e project was an important item on the council in 2009 Th e body decided to rezone the area for light industrial and residential development Th e city and Wright Runstead reached a development agreement around that time Nat Levy can be reached at 425-453-4290

Marymoor Park was abuzz with the raising of the circus tent for the show Cavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horse on Dec 8
Cavalia includes acrobatics aerialists music dance and of course ndash equestrian stunts Its like Cirque du Soleil but with horses When the show opens Jan 24 itrsquos expected to have the same draw as Cirque shows gaining audience members from across the Eastside Greater Seattle and even across the region
It took less than 20 minutes for crews to raise the 10-story-foot-tall tent spanning more than 26000 square feet Unlike traditional circular circus tents the Cavalia tent is built to be big enough to allow the horses freedom to move during the show so the audience sits on one side and the show takes place on the opposite side
Kevin Brown director of King County Parks and Recreation said he was pleased that the show is fi nally coming to Redmond aft er years of discussing the possibility with Cavalias artistic director Normand Latourelle who cofounded Cirque du Soleil before breaking away 20 years
agoWhile Marymoor has hosted numerous Cirque shows
this will be the fi rst time it has housed a show by Cavalia mdash the name of Latourelles company as well as this particular performance Th e company additionally has another show called Odysseo playing in the south
Latourelle said the inspiration for a show with horses came in the early 2000s when he used a horse in a previ-ous show that simply walked across the stage People were transfi xed by that animal more than the human perform-ers
In an age where many people live in cities and are becoming increasingly removed from nature the chance to see a show with these majestic animals is special Latourelle said Th e relationship between human and horse goes back thousands of years Th roughout various cultures people rode horses for many aspects of life from travel to hunting Th is history is presented in the show
Even people who dont know horses come to this show and they are moved by what they see Latourelle said Its in their blood Its because of our ancestors

Th e Assistance League of the Eastside annual signa-ture fundraiser ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo took place on Friday Dec 9 in Kirkland Th is yearrsquos chairs were League members Kay Zatine and Susie Hino
ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo was a self-guided tour of six unique homes beautifully decorated for the holidays All proceeds from this annual event will help fund the philanthropic programs of the Assistance League of the Eastside that include Operation School Bell Assault Survivor Kits Starting Over Support and Assistance League Outreach Th ese programs provide new clothing to more than 2600 students selected by school personnel in the Lake Washington Bellevue and Northshore school districts help to restore dignity to survivors of sexual assault with clothing to replace items retained as evidence by the police and bring comfort to families seek-ing shelter from domestic violence

My favorite decorations were in 6 the lovely wa-terfront home of Diane and Paul Birkeland Upon enter-ing your eyes were imme-diately drawn to the spiral staircase that was wrapped with garland ribbons and ornaments on the right and a small decorator tree placed
on top of the piano on the left Also two more of the many designer trees were on display By far my favorite tree was the Christopher Radko ornament tree in the living room Every room
was beautifully decorated for Christmas

The Bellevue City Council decided Monday to begin charg-ing residents for non-emergency ambulance transportation
The move was part of a slate of decisions on the part of the coun-cil and city staff to close a $65 million budget gap The move is projected to generate $11 million annually for the city
Users of the non-emergency
ambulances would pay a $600 flat fee as well as $12 to $14 a mile Bellevue was one of the last holdouts in the county in free non-emergency ambulance rides Still Councilmembers Grant De-gginger and John Chelminiak did not see these fees as an answer to the cityrsquos budget problems
ldquoThis is a service that we are going to provide whether we do this or notrdquo said Degginger ldquoIt amounts to charging people twice for the same servicerdquo
City Manager Steve Sarkozy has already proposed a lengthy list of spending cuts totaling $46 million including the elimina-tion of 17 full-time equivalent positions six of which would involve layoffs voluntary separa-tions or voluntary retirements The proposed reductions come on top of those made last year when the city reduced its work-force by 49 positions and cut $16 million from the budget
The other $16 million in cuts
involves leaving vacant positions open At risk are a number of positions including four bicycle patrol police officers a police captain and a drop in 247 daily emergency firefighter staff
Sarkozy said the cuts represent a scaling back of services to levels similar to 2007-2008 The city has attempted to avoid cuts to public safety but growth projections have slowed to molasses-like speeds
Council votes in ambulance fee to balance budget

A community organiza-tion that played a large role in the 2011 Bellevue City Council races has been given a $1000 fine for vio-lating the statersquos campaign finance laws
The organization Move Bellevue Forward was fined by the Public Disclosure Commission after it failed to register as a political com-mittee and report expenses to promote candidates
Composed of former Bellevue politicians and pro light-rail citizens Move Bellevue Forward sent out mailers endorsing council candidates Claudia Bal-ducci John Chelminiak and John Stokes all of whom won their races The group also opposed Tim Eymanrsquos tolling Initiative 1125 which lost in a statewide vote
Move Bellevue Forwardrsquos mailer was sent out Oct 18 at a cost of $6615 a portion of which likely came from local developer John Su ac-cording to the PDC because the grouprsquos bank account only had $5000 when the mailer was made
The group became a political committee Sept 27 when it first decided to send the mailer according to the PDC According to PDC regulations Move Bellevue Forward should have filed as a political committee by Oct 11 at the latest
The group filed as a one-year political body on Nov 30 ndash 24 days after the General Election Move Bellevue Forward reported receiving more than $10000 in September in October and spending more than $8000
The PDCrsquos action against
Move Bellevue Forward stemmed from an Oct 20 complaint from a resident Geoff Bidwell about the mailer where he said the group was attempting to cover up its donors
ldquoMove Bellevue Forward - which is barely a Bellevue organization since three of its five board members are based in Seattle - engaged in activity with the obvious in-tent to hide both the source and driving force behind this specific mailer and potentially many beyondrdquo Bidwell wrote
The day before Bidwellrsquos complaint Move Bellevue Forward submitted a report to the PDC disclosing the expenses for the mailer
Sue Baugh president of Move Bellevue Forward said in a statement to the PDC that the board was unaware that its actions had changed the status of the group
ldquoAt the time the pieces were mailed Move Bellevue Forward did not realize that community advocacy groups such as itself that are not organized for the pur-pose of supporting or op-posing particular candidates or ballot propositions could nonetheless be subject to reporting requirements if they publicly endorsed a candidate or took a position on an initiativerdquo Baugh wrote
Baugh argued that because the grouprsquos pri-mary purpose is not to take stances on issues or candidates the issues in the 2011 election were key to their pro-transit goals and required their participation Move Bellevue Forward should not be classified as a political committee she said
Pro light-rail community group hit with campaign finance violations
Beginning at 8 pm Monday the Bellevue City Council will hold a public meeting on whether to accept annexation of the East-gate and Tamara Hills communities
Property owners representing more than 50 percent of the assessed value of both unincorporated areas have signed petitions seeking annexation to the City of Bellevue The council was originally going to take action on them next spring but could act early to preserve a state tax credit designed to offset the cost of providing services
Next week - annexation

Th e alleged violations arose from an investigation that spanned from March to May of this year UTC staff found PSE was improperly charging a $13 fi eld-visit disconnect fee to customers Th e PSE representative can only charge the fee if he or she was dispatched to the residence to disconnect electric or natural gas service Under state rules PSE may not charge a disconnect-visit fee if the utility visits a customerrsquos home for a purpose other than to disconnect service such as leaving a 24-hour termination notice or collecting a payment
Th e three-member commission will set a schedule for hearing the complaint Th e company has 20 calendar days to fi le a response If proven at hearing the commission could assess PSE as much as $1000 for each violation Th e company is not allowed to pass any penalty costs to customers through rates
Bellevue-based PSE serves more than 1 million electric customers and about 750000 natural gas customers pri-marily in the Puget Sound region of Washington
Th e UTC is the state agency that regulates private inves-tor-owned electric and natural gas utilities in Washington It is the commissionrsquos responsibility to ensure regulated companies provide safe and reliable service to customers at reasonable rates while allowing them the opportunity to earn a fair profi t

Mike Black grew up in Bellevue and was an All-KingCo selection for the Wolverines in 1986 as a place kicker and punter Aft er his prep career fi nished Black continued playing at Boise State University where he was coached by Sea-hawks quarterback and legend Jim Zorn
A lifelong Hawks fan who attended nearly all of the teamrsquos home games from 1976 until leav-ing for college in 1987 Black has been part of the ESPN-ABC crew that produces Monday Night Football and Th ursday night NCAA football for nearly a decade
Black who now resides in California works as the talent spotter and stage manager with the broadcast crew of Mike Tirico Jon Gruden and Ron Jaworski on the ESPN Monday Night Foot-
ball crew that was in Seattle for the Seahawks Week 14 division matchup with the St Louis Rams at Century Link Field
He took some time to chat with the Reporter about working with such recognizable characters in the booth the life of a production crew mem-ber and his best memories as a Wolverine
BELLEVUE REPORTER How oft en do you make it back to the Pacifi c Northwest and Bel-levue
MIKE BLACK With my schedule with col-lege football and the NFL itrsquos anytime we do a Seahawks Monday night game or the last three or four years a couple UW games here and there I hope for one a year at least
BR When yoursquore back in town what are your must-visit spots
MB Irsquove got to eat at Spud Fish and Chips I make it over to Bellevue to check out the old stomping grounds and to the UW right on the water because thatrsquos where we spread my dadrsquos ashes
BR How did you land with the Monday Night Football crew
MB ESPN took it [MNF] over in 2006 and me and Tirico have been together since before then I was on the ABC Monday Night crew doing a diff erent job the previous few years and were on the Th ursday college package before we made the switch to Monday night
BR All of the guys in the booth are quite the characters on the air Does it change when the cameras switch off
MNF is homecoming for Bellevue man

MB Th eyrsquore totally easy-going Aft er I played at Boise State I played in the Arena League for 10 years so I have a history with Gruden I used to compete against Jay his younger brother who is now the off ensive coordinator with the Bengals Jay was a coach with the Orlando Preda-tors so when Jon got on the show it was pretty cool because I had the history with his brother Jaworski is heavily involved in the Arena League still and wersquove known each other over the years so when he got assigned to the show it was awesome When Jaws came on it was great and when Gruden was an-nounced it got that much better Th e guys are so relaxed leading up to the game and theyrsquore pretty self-suffi cient It seems like they are everybodyrsquos best friends on the crew
BR You have obviously
remained close to football and have a passion for it What are a few of the high-lights from your prep days
MB Th e senior year I had and being so close with my teammates and guys I grew up with is what I remember most We lost in the fi rst round of the play-off s so obviously that was disappointing But having that as my fi rst full season of high school playing it was a great memory and I knew I wanted to play in college somewhere
BR Do you keep up with the Wolverines and what do you think of where the program is today
MB Itrsquos amazing to see whatrsquos happened to Bel-levue Itrsquos great to come back and see it Where I see it the most is in USA Today when I read it on the road I see the weekly rankings and they keep creeping up Itrsquos really cool itrsquos hard to believe

Developers Wright Runstead have submitted an applica-tion for what could turn out to be the next big issue in Bel-levue the Spring District
Th e $15 billion development includes 36 acres of land now occupied by the Safeway distribution site It is planned to include a mixed-use of offi ce towers retail outlets and residences
Th e development is a transit-oriented project meaning it is primarily centered around the construction of East Link light-rail through Bellevue One of the centerpieces of the development a new hotel will have an entrance to a light-rail station according to planning documents submitted to the city
Th e project is slated to be built over a 15-year period in seven distinct phases According to Wright Runsteadrsquos appli-cation developers hope to begin construction on the project in the fi rst quarter of 2012 However city representatives said the review of the plan which does not involve a public hearing would likely take until the early summer Th ose interested can submit public comments about the plan to the city until Dec 22 at 5 pm
Th e new project is projected to bring nearly 37000 vehicle trips per day into the area on 124th Avenue Northeast south of Bel-Red Road including more than 3700 during peak evening time the busiest in Bellevue Road improvements to 120th Avenue Northeast and the creation of a new street - Northeast 15th16th - will help free traffi c once the new buildings come in Th ese are projects in Bellevuersquos budget
Th e issue of paying for the part of the project became an issue this election season Several candidates running for Bellevue City Council opposed impact fee breaks for the project citing Bellevuersquos tenuous budget situation
Th e project was an important item on the council in 2009 Th e body decided to rezone the area for light industrial and residential development Th e city and Wright Runstead reached a development agreement around that time Nat Levy can be reached at 425-453-4290

Marymoor Park was abuzz with the raising of the circus tent for the show Cavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horse on Dec 8
Cavalia includes acrobatics aerialists music dance and of course ndash equestrian stunts Its like Cirque du Soleil but with horses When the show opens Jan 24 itrsquos expected to have the same draw as Cirque shows gaining audience members from across the Eastside Greater Seattle and even across the region
It took less than 20 minutes for crews to raise the 10-story-foot-tall tent spanning more than 26000 square feet Unlike traditional circular circus tents the Cavalia tent is built to be big enough to allow the horses freedom to move during the show so the audience sits on one side and the show takes place on the opposite side
Kevin Brown director of King County Parks and Recreation said he was pleased that the show is fi nally coming to Redmond aft er years of discussing the possibility with Cavalias artistic director Normand Latourelle who cofounded Cirque du Soleil before breaking away 20 years
agoWhile Marymoor has hosted numerous Cirque shows
this will be the fi rst time it has housed a show by Cavalia mdash the name of Latourelles company as well as this particular performance Th e company additionally has another show called Odysseo playing in the south
Latourelle said the inspiration for a show with horses came in the early 2000s when he used a horse in a previ-ous show that simply walked across the stage People were transfi xed by that animal more than the human perform-ers
In an age where many people live in cities and are becoming increasingly removed from nature the chance to see a show with these majestic animals is special Latourelle said Th e relationship between human and horse goes back thousands of years Th roughout various cultures people rode horses for many aspects of life from travel to hunting Th is history is presented in the show
Even people who dont know horses come to this show and they are moved by what they see Latourelle said Its in their blood Its because of our ancestors

Where about town Irsquove been Th e opening night of Burlesque Nutcracker at Triple
Door Wowza Whoever says burlesque isnrsquot an art form has clearly never seen Lilly Verlaine a classical ballet dancer and burlesque artist
If you have not seen ldquoTh e Muppetsrdquo movie yet I as-sure you that itrsquos worthy of more than just an eventual add to the Netfl ix queue Go see it on the big screen While itrsquos not Jim Hensen and Frank Oz behind Kermit and Miss Piggy the fi lm was done with such love and clearly by people who grew up with the Muppets (like I did) Tear-jerking moments included Kermyrsquos rendition of ldquoRainbow Connectionrdquo Th e only downside to the fi lm is that Selena Gomez is in it (no off ense tweens)

alsquoCirque du Soleil with horsesrsquo headed to the Eastside
Normand Latourelle cofounded Cirque du Soleil before forming his own show lsquoCavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horsersquo which opens Jan 24 at Marymoor Park CHAD COLEMAN Bellevue Reporter
Th e Assistance League of the Eastside annual signa-ture fundraiser ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo took place on Friday Dec 9 in Kirkland Th is yearrsquos chairs were League members Kay Zatine and Susie Hino
ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo was a self-guided tour of six unique homes beautifully decorated for the holidays All proceeds from this annual event will help fund the philanthropic programs of the Assistance League of the Eastside that include Operation School Bell Assault Survivor Kits Starting Over Support and Assistance League Outreach Th ese programs provide new clothing to more than 2600 students selected by school personnel in the Lake Washington Bellevue and Northshore school districts help to restore dignity to survivors of sexual assault with clothing to replace items retained as evidence by the police and bring comfort to families seek-ing shelter from domestic violence
Each of the six homes were decorated with the seasonrsquos holiday themes and color palettes all embrac-ing the beauty of Christmas Miranda Roberts VP of communications for the Assistance League shared ldquoHouse 1 Was a twin-kling clerestory of modern living House 2 35 bins of deacutecor completed this themed house that included more than 100 Nutcrack-ers collected over the years House 3 Juxtapositioning
of contemporary and vintage Holiday collections House 4 Tastefully and elegantly decorated showcasing the view of the Lake House 5
Artful design-er deacutecor from the ceiling to fl oor with a wrap-around verandah and House 6 Heirloom decor in a classical Lake Washington
setting with over 15 deco-rated treesrdquo
My favorite decorations were in 6 the lovely wa-terfront home of Diane and Paul Birkeland Upon enter-ing your eyes were imme-diately drawn to the spiral staircase that was wrapped with garland ribbons and ornaments on the right and a small decorator tree placed
on top of the piano on the left Also two more of the many designer trees were on display By far my favorite tree was the Christopher Radko ornament tree in the living room Every room
was beautifully decorated for Christmas

The Bellevue City Council decided Monday to begin charg-ing residents for non-emergency ambulance transportation
The move was part of a slate of decisions on the part of the coun-cil and city staff to close a $65 million budget gap The move is projected to generate $11 million annually for the city
Users of the non-emergency
ambulances would pay a $600 flat fee as well as $12 to $14 a mile Bellevue was one of the last holdouts in the county in free non-emergency ambulance rides Still Councilmembers Grant De-gginger and John Chelminiak did not see these fees as an answer to the cityrsquos budget problems
ldquoThis is a service that we are going to provide whether we do this or notrdquo said Degginger ldquoIt amounts to charging people twice for the same servicerdquo
City Manager Steve Sarkozy has already proposed a lengthy list of spending cuts totaling $46 million including the elimina-tion of 17 full-time equivalent positions six of which would involve layoffs voluntary separa-tions or voluntary retirements The proposed reductions come on top of those made last year when the city reduced its work-force by 49 positions and cut $16 million from the budget
The other $16 million in cuts
involves leaving vacant positions open At risk are a number of positions including four bicycle patrol police officers a police captain and a drop in 247 daily emergency firefighter staff
Sarkozy said the cuts represent a scaling back of services to levels similar to 2007-2008 The city has attempted to avoid cuts to public safety but growth projections have slowed to molasses-like speeds
Council votes in ambulance fee to balance budget

A community organiza-tion that played a large role in the 2011 Bellevue City Council races has been given a $1000 fine for vio-lating the statersquos campaign finance laws
The organization Move Bellevue Forward was fined by the Public Disclosure Commission after it failed to register as a political com-mittee and report expenses to promote candidates
Composed of former Bellevue politicians and pro light-rail citizens Move Bellevue Forward sent out mailers endorsing council candidates Claudia Bal-ducci John Chelminiak and John Stokes all of whom won their races The group also opposed Tim Eymanrsquos tolling Initiative 1125 which lost in a statewide vote
Move Bellevue Forwardrsquos mailer was sent out Oct 18 at a cost of $6615 a portion of which likely came from local developer John Su ac-cording to the PDC because the grouprsquos bank account only had $5000 when the mailer was made
The group became a political committee Sept 27 when it first decided to send the mailer according to the PDC According to PDC regulations Move Bellevue Forward should have filed as a political committee by Oct 11 at the latest
The group filed as a one-year political body on Nov 30 ndash 24 days after the General Election Move Bellevue Forward reported receiving more than $10000 in September in October and spending more than $8000
The PDCrsquos action against
Move Bellevue Forward stemmed from an Oct 20 complaint from a resident Geoff Bidwell about the mailer where he said the group was attempting to cover up its donors
ldquoMove Bellevue Forward - which is barely a Bellevue organization since three of its five board members are based in Seattle - engaged in activity with the obvious in-tent to hide both the source and driving force behind this specific mailer and potentially many beyondrdquo Bidwell wrote
The day before Bidwellrsquos complaint Move Bellevue Forward submitted a report to the PDC disclosing the expenses for the mailer
Sue Baugh president of Move Bellevue Forward said in a statement to the PDC that the board was unaware that its actions had changed the status of the group
ldquoAt the time the pieces were mailed Move Bellevue Forward did not realize that community advocacy groups such as itself that are not organized for the pur-pose of supporting or op-posing particular candidates or ballot propositions could nonetheless be subject to reporting requirements if they publicly endorsed a candidate or took a position on an initiativerdquo Baugh wrote
Baugh argued that because the grouprsquos pri-mary purpose is not to take stances on issues or candidates the issues in the 2011 election were key to their pro-transit goals and required their participation Move Bellevue Forward should not be classified as a political committee she said
Pro light-rail community group hit with campaign finance violations
Beginning at 8 pm Monday the Bellevue City Council will hold a public meeting on whether to accept annexation of the East-gate and Tamara Hills communities
Property owners representing more than 50 percent of the assessed value of both unincorporated areas have signed petitions seeking annexation to the City of Bellevue The council was originally going to take action on them next spring but could act early to preserve a state tax credit designed to offset the cost of providing services
Next week - annexation

State regulators Wednesday issued a complaint against Puget Sound Energy alleging the utility company improp-erly charged a residential-visit disconnect fee to electricity and natural gas customers
Th e Washington Utilities and Transportation Commis-sion staff is alleging PSE committed 1639 violations of state consumer protection rules Th e commission staff also is asking the UTC to require the utility to refund customers charged the $13 fee in error
Th e alleged violations arose from an investigation that spanned from March to May of this year UTC staff found PSE was improperly charging a $13 fi eld-visit disconnect fee to customers Th e PSE representative can only charge the fee if he or she was dispatched to the residence to disconnect electric or natural gas service Under state rules PSE may not charge a disconnect-visit fee if the utility visits a customerrsquos home for a purpose other than to disconnect service such as leaving a 24-hour termination notice or collecting a payment
Th e three-member commission will set a schedule for hearing the complaint Th e company has 20 calendar days to fi le a response If proven at hearing the commission could assess PSE as much as $1000 for each violation Th e company is not allowed to pass any penalty costs to customers through rates
Bellevue-based PSE serves more than 1 million electric customers and about 750000 natural gas customers pri-marily in the Puget Sound region of Washington
Th e UTC is the state agency that regulates private inves-tor-owned electric and natural gas utilities in Washington It is the commissionrsquos responsibility to ensure regulated companies provide safe and reliable service to customers at reasonable rates while allowing them the opportunity to earn a fair profi t

Mike Black grew up in Bellevue and was an All-KingCo selection for the Wolverines in 1986 as a place kicker and punter Aft er his prep career fi nished Black continued playing at Boise State University where he was coached by Sea-hawks quarterback and legend Jim Zorn
A lifelong Hawks fan who attended nearly all of the teamrsquos home games from 1976 until leav-ing for college in 1987 Black has been part of the ESPN-ABC crew that produces Monday Night Football and Th ursday night NCAA football for nearly a decade
Black who now resides in California works as the talent spotter and stage manager with the broadcast crew of Mike Tirico Jon Gruden and Ron Jaworski on the ESPN Monday Night Foot-
ball crew that was in Seattle for the Seahawks Week 14 division matchup with the St Louis Rams at Century Link Field
He took some time to chat with the Reporter about working with such recognizable characters in the booth the life of a production crew mem-ber and his best memories as a Wolverine
BELLEVUE REPORTER How oft en do you make it back to the Pacifi c Northwest and Bel-levue
MIKE BLACK With my schedule with col-lege football and the NFL itrsquos anytime we do a Seahawks Monday night game or the last three or four years a couple UW games here and there I hope for one a year at least
BR When yoursquore back in town what are your must-visit spots
MB Irsquove got to eat at Spud Fish and Chips I make it over to Bellevue to check out the old stomping grounds and to the UW right on the water because thatrsquos where we spread my dadrsquos ashes
BR How did you land with the Monday Night Football crew
MB ESPN took it [MNF] over in 2006 and me and Tirico have been together since before then I was on the ABC Monday Night crew doing a diff erent job the previous few years and were on the Th ursday college package before we made the switch to Monday night
BR All of the guys in the booth are quite the characters on the air Does it change when the cameras switch off
MNF is homecoming for Bellevue man

MB Th eyrsquore totally easy-going Aft er I played at Boise State I played in the Arena League for 10 years so I have a history with Gruden I used to compete against Jay his younger brother who is now the off ensive coordinator with the Bengals Jay was a coach with the Orlando Preda-tors so when Jon got on the show it was pretty cool because I had the history with his brother Jaworski is heavily involved in the Arena League still and wersquove known each other over the years so when he got assigned to the show it was awesome When Jaws came on it was great and when Gruden was an-nounced it got that much better Th e guys are so relaxed leading up to the game and theyrsquore pretty self-suffi cient It seems like they are everybodyrsquos best friends on the crew
BR You have obviously
remained close to football and have a passion for it What are a few of the high-lights from your prep days
MB Th e senior year I had and being so close with my teammates and guys I grew up with is what I remember most We lost in the fi rst round of the play-off s so obviously that was disappointing But having that as my fi rst full season of high school playing it was a great memory and I knew I wanted to play in college somewhere
BR Do you keep up with the Wolverines and what do you think of where the program is today
MB Itrsquos amazing to see whatrsquos happened to Bel-levue Itrsquos great to come back and see it Where I see it the most is in USA Today when I read it on the road I see the weekly rankings and they keep creeping up Itrsquos really cool itrsquos hard to believe

Developers Wright Runstead have submitted an applica-tion for what could turn out to be the next big issue in Bel-levue the Spring District
Th e $15 billion development includes 36 acres of land now occupied by the Safeway distribution site It is planned to include a mixed-use of offi ce towers retail outlets and residences
Th e development is a transit-oriented project meaning it is primarily centered around the construction of East Link light-rail through Bellevue One of the centerpieces of the development a new hotel will have an entrance to a light-rail station according to planning documents submitted to the city
Th e project is slated to be built over a 15-year period in seven distinct phases According to Wright Runsteadrsquos appli-cation developers hope to begin construction on the project in the fi rst quarter of 2012 However city representatives said the review of the plan which does not involve a public hearing would likely take until the early summer Th ose interested can submit public comments about the plan to the city until Dec 22 at 5 pm
Th e new project is projected to bring nearly 37000 vehicle trips per day into the area on 124th Avenue Northeast south of Bel-Red Road including more than 3700 during peak evening time the busiest in Bellevue Road improvements to 120th Avenue Northeast and the creation of a new street - Northeast 15th16th - will help free traffi c once the new buildings come in Th ese are projects in Bellevuersquos budget
Th e issue of paying for the part of the project became an issue this election season Several candidates running for Bellevue City Council opposed impact fee breaks for the project citing Bellevuersquos tenuous budget situation
Th e project was an important item on the council in 2009 Th e body decided to rezone the area for light industrial and residential development Th e city and Wright Runstead reached a development agreement around that time Nat Levy can be reached at 425-453-4290

Marymoor Park was abuzz with the raising of the circus tent for the show Cavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horse on Dec 8
Cavalia includes acrobatics aerialists music dance and of course ndash equestrian stunts Its like Cirque du Soleil but with horses When the show opens Jan 24 itrsquos expected to have the same draw as Cirque shows gaining audience members from across the Eastside Greater Seattle and even across the region
It took less than 20 minutes for crews to raise the 10-story-foot-tall tent spanning more than 26000 square feet Unlike traditional circular circus tents the Cavalia tent is built to be big enough to allow the horses freedom to move during the show so the audience sits on one side and the show takes place on the opposite side
Kevin Brown director of King County Parks and Recreation said he was pleased that the show is fi nally coming to Redmond aft er years of discussing the possibility with Cavalias artistic director Normand Latourelle who cofounded Cirque du Soleil before breaking away 20 years
agoWhile Marymoor has hosted numerous Cirque shows
this will be the fi rst time it has housed a show by Cavalia mdash the name of Latourelles company as well as this particular performance Th e company additionally has another show called Odysseo playing in the south
Latourelle said the inspiration for a show with horses came in the early 2000s when he used a horse in a previ-ous show that simply walked across the stage People were transfi xed by that animal more than the human perform-ers
In an age where many people live in cities and are becoming increasingly removed from nature the chance to see a show with these majestic animals is special Latourelle said Th e relationship between human and horse goes back thousands of years Th roughout various cultures people rode horses for many aspects of life from travel to hunting Th is history is presented in the show
Even people who dont know horses come to this show and they are moved by what they see Latourelle said Its in their blood Its because of our ancestors

alsquoCirque du Soleil with horsesrsquo headed to the Eastside
Normand Latourelle cofounded Cirque du Soleil before forming his own show lsquoCavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horsersquo which opens Jan 24 at Marymoor Park CHAD COLEMAN Bellevue Reporter
Th e Assistance League of the Eastside annual signa-ture fundraiser ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo took place on Friday Dec 9 in Kirkland Th is yearrsquos chairs were League members Kay Zatine and Susie Hino
ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo was a self-guided tour of six unique homes beautifully decorated for the holidays All proceeds from this annual event will help fund the philanthropic programs of the Assistance League of the Eastside that include Operation School Bell Assault Survivor Kits Starting Over Support and Assistance League Outreach Th ese programs provide new clothing to more than 2600 students selected by school personnel in the Lake Washington Bellevue and Northshore school districts help to restore dignity to survivors of sexual assault with clothing to replace items retained as evidence by the police and bring comfort to families seek-ing shelter from domestic violence
Each of the six homes were decorated with the seasonrsquos holiday themes and color palettes all embrac-ing the beauty of Christmas Miranda Roberts VP of communications for the Assistance League shared ldquoHouse 1 Was a twin-kling clerestory of modern living House 2 35 bins of deacutecor completed this themed house that included more than 100 Nutcrack-ers collected over the years House 3 Juxtapositioning
of contemporary and vintage Holiday collections House 4 Tastefully and elegantly decorated showcasing the view of the Lake House 5
Artful design-er deacutecor from the ceiling to fl oor with a wrap-around verandah and House 6 Heirloom decor in a classical Lake Washington
setting with over 15 deco-rated treesrdquo
My favorite decorations were in 6 the lovely wa-terfront home of Diane and Paul Birkeland Upon enter-ing your eyes were imme-diately drawn to the spiral staircase that was wrapped with garland ribbons and ornaments on the right and a small decorator tree placed
on top of the piano on the left Also two more of the many designer trees were on display By far my favorite tree was the Christopher Radko ornament tree in the living room Every room
was beautifully decorated for Christmas

State regulators Wednesday issued a complaint against Puget Sound Energy alleging the utility company improp-erly charged a residential-visit disconnect fee to electricity and natural gas customers
Th e Washington Utilities and Transportation Commis-sion staff is alleging PSE committed 1639 violations of state consumer protection rules Th e commission staff also is asking the UTC to require the utility to refund customers charged the $13 fee in error
Th e alleged violations arose from an investigation that spanned from March to May of this year UTC staff found PSE was improperly charging a $13 fi eld-visit disconnect fee to customers Th e PSE representative can only charge the fee if he or she was dispatched to the residence to disconnect electric or natural gas service Under state rules PSE may not charge a disconnect-visit fee if the utility visits a customerrsquos home for a purpose other than to disconnect service such as leaving a 24-hour termination notice or collecting a payment
Th e three-member commission will set a schedule for hearing the complaint Th e company has 20 calendar days to fi le a response If proven at hearing the commission could assess PSE as much as $1000 for each violation Th e company is not allowed to pass any penalty costs to customers through rates
Bellevue-based PSE serves more than 1 million electric customers and about 750000 natural gas customers pri-marily in the Puget Sound region of Washington
Th e UTC is the state agency that regulates private inves-tor-owned electric and natural gas utilities in Washington It is the commissionrsquos responsibility to ensure regulated companies provide safe and reliable service to customers at reasonable rates while allowing them the opportunity to earn a fair profi t

Mike Black grew up in Bellevue and was an All-KingCo selection for the Wolverines in 1986 as a place kicker and punter Aft er his prep career fi nished Black continued playing at Boise State University where he was coached by Sea-hawks quarterback and legend Jim Zorn
A lifelong Hawks fan who attended nearly all of the teamrsquos home games from 1976 until leav-ing for college in 1987 Black has been part of the ESPN-ABC crew that produces Monday Night Football and Th ursday night NCAA football for nearly a decade
Black who now resides in California works as the talent spotter and stage manager with the broadcast crew of Mike Tirico Jon Gruden and Ron Jaworski on the ESPN Monday Night Foot-
ball crew that was in Seattle for the Seahawks Week 14 division matchup with the St Louis Rams at Century Link Field
He took some time to chat with the Reporter about working with such recognizable characters in the booth the life of a production crew mem-ber and his best memories as a Wolverine
BELLEVUE REPORTER How oft en do you make it back to the Pacifi c Northwest and Bel-levue
MIKE BLACK With my schedule with col-lege football and the NFL itrsquos anytime we do a Seahawks Monday night game or the last three or four years a couple UW games here and there I hope for one a year at least
BR When yoursquore back in town what are your must-visit spots
MB Irsquove got to eat at Spud Fish and Chips I make it over to Bellevue to check out the old stomping grounds and to the UW right on the water because thatrsquos where we spread my dadrsquos ashes
BR How did you land with the Monday Night Football crew
MB ESPN took it [MNF] over in 2006 and me and Tirico have been together since before then I was on the ABC Monday Night crew doing a diff erent job the previous few years and were on the Th ursday college package before we made the switch to Monday night
BR All of the guys in the booth are quite the characters on the air Does it change when the cameras switch off
MNF is homecoming for Bellevue man

MB Th eyrsquore totally easy-going Aft er I played at Boise State I played in the Arena League for 10 years so I have a history with Gruden I used to compete against Jay his younger brother who is now the off ensive coordinator with the Bengals Jay was a coach with the Orlando Preda-tors so when Jon got on the show it was pretty cool because I had the history with his brother Jaworski is heavily involved in the Arena League still and wersquove known each other over the years so when he got assigned to the show it was awesome When Jaws came on it was great and when Gruden was an-nounced it got that much better Th e guys are so relaxed leading up to the game and theyrsquore pretty self-suffi cient It seems like they are everybodyrsquos best friends on the crew
BR You have obviously
remained close to football and have a passion for it What are a few of the high-lights from your prep days
MB Th e senior year I had and being so close with my teammates and guys I grew up with is what I remember most We lost in the fi rst round of the play-off s so obviously that was disappointing But having that as my fi rst full season of high school playing it was a great memory and I knew I wanted to play in college somewhere
BR Do you keep up with the Wolverines and what do you think of where the program is today
MB Itrsquos amazing to see whatrsquos happened to Bel-levue Itrsquos great to come back and see it Where I see it the most is in USA Today when I read it on the road I see the weekly rankings and they keep creeping up Itrsquos really cool itrsquos hard to believe

Developers Wright Runstead have submitted an applica-tion for what could turn out to be the next big issue in Bel-levue the Spring District
Th e $15 billion development includes 36 acres of land now occupied by the Safeway distribution site It is planned to include a mixed-use of offi ce towers retail outlets and residences
Th e development is a transit-oriented project meaning it is primarily centered around the construction of East Link light-rail through Bellevue One of the centerpieces of the development a new hotel will have an entrance to a light-rail station according to planning documents submitted to the city
Th e project is slated to be built over a 15-year period in seven distinct phases According to Wright Runsteadrsquos appli-cation developers hope to begin construction on the project in the fi rst quarter of 2012 However city representatives said the review of the plan which does not involve a public hearing would likely take until the early summer Th ose interested can submit public comments about the plan to the city until Dec 22 at 5 pm
Th e new project is projected to bring nearly 37000 vehicle trips per day into the area on 124th Avenue Northeast south of Bel-Red Road including more than 3700 during peak evening time the busiest in Bellevue Road improvements to 120th Avenue Northeast and the creation of a new street - Northeast 15th16th - will help free traffi c once the new buildings come in Th ese are projects in Bellevuersquos budget
Th e issue of paying for the part of the project became an issue this election season Several candidates running for Bellevue City Council opposed impact fee breaks for the project citing Bellevuersquos tenuous budget situation
Th e project was an important item on the council in 2009 Th e body decided to rezone the area for light industrial and residential development Th e city and Wright Runstead reached a development agreement around that time Nat Levy can be reached at 425-453-4290

Marymoor Park was abuzz with the raising of the circus tent for the show Cavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horse on Dec 8
Cavalia includes acrobatics aerialists music dance and of course ndash equestrian stunts Its like Cirque du Soleil but with horses When the show opens Jan 24 itrsquos expected to have the same draw as Cirque shows gaining audience members from across the Eastside Greater Seattle and even across the region
It took less than 20 minutes for crews to raise the 10-story-foot-tall tent spanning more than 26000 square feet Unlike traditional circular circus tents the Cavalia tent is built to be big enough to allow the horses freedom to move during the show so the audience sits on one side and the show takes place on the opposite side
Kevin Brown director of King County Parks and Recreation said he was pleased that the show is fi nally coming to Redmond aft er years of discussing the possibility with Cavalias artistic director Normand Latourelle who cofounded Cirque du Soleil before breaking away 20 years
agoWhile Marymoor has hosted numerous Cirque shows
this will be the fi rst time it has housed a show by Cavalia mdash the name of Latourelles company as well as this particular performance Th e company additionally has another show called Odysseo playing in the south
Latourelle said the inspiration for a show with horses came in the early 2000s when he used a horse in a previ-ous show that simply walked across the stage People were transfi xed by that animal more than the human perform-ers
In an age where many people live in cities and are becoming increasingly removed from nature the chance to see a show with these majestic animals is special Latourelle said Th e relationship between human and horse goes back thousands of years Th roughout various cultures people rode horses for many aspects of life from travel to hunting Th is history is presented in the show
Even people who dont know horses come to this show and they are moved by what they see Latourelle said Its in their blood Its because of our ancestors

alsquoCirque du Soleil with horsesrsquo headed to the Eastside
Normand Latourelle cofounded Cirque du Soleil before forming his own show lsquoCavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horsersquo which opens Jan 24 at Marymoor Park CHAD COLEMAN Bellevue Reporter
Th e Assistance League of the Eastside annual signa-ture fundraiser ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo took place on Friday Dec 9 in Kirkland Th is yearrsquos chairs were League members Kay Zatine and Susie Hino
ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo was a self-guided tour of six unique homes beautifully decorated for the holidays All proceeds from this annual event will help fund the philanthropic programs of the Assistance League of the Eastside that include Operation School Bell Assault Survivor Kits Starting Over Support and Assistance League Outreach Th ese programs provide new clothing to more than 2600 students selected by school personnel in the Lake Washington Bellevue and Northshore school districts help to restore dignity to survivors of sexual assault with clothing to replace items retained as evidence by the police and bring comfort to families seek-ing shelter from domestic violence
Each of the six homes were decorated with the seasonrsquos holiday themes and color palettes all embrac-ing the beauty of Christmas Miranda Roberts VP of communications for the Assistance League shared ldquoHouse 1 Was a twin-kling clerestory of modern living House 2 35 bins of deacutecor completed this themed house that included more than 100 Nutcrack-ers collected over the years House 3 Juxtapositioning
of contemporary and vintage Holiday collections House 4 Tastefully and elegantly decorated showcasing the view of the Lake House 5
Artful design-er deacutecor from the ceiling to fl oor with a wrap-around verandah and House 6 Heirloom decor in a classical Lake Washington
setting with over 15 deco-rated treesrdquo
My favorite decorations were in 6 the lovely wa-terfront home of Diane and Paul Birkeland Upon enter-ing your eyes were imme-diately drawn to the spiral staircase that was wrapped with garland ribbons and ornaments on the right and a small decorator tree placed
on top of the piano on the left Also two more of the many designer trees were on display By far my favorite tree was the Christopher Radko ornament tree in the living room Every room
was beautifully decorated for Christmas

Mike Black grew up in Bellevue and was an All-KingCo selection for the Wolverines in 1986 as a place kicker and punter Aft er his prep career fi nished Black continued playing at Boise State University where he was coached by Sea-hawks quarterback and legend Jim Zorn
A lifelong Hawks fan who attended nearly all of the teamrsquos home games from 1976 until leav-ing for college in 1987 Black has been part of the ESPN-ABC crew that produces Monday Night Football and Th ursday night NCAA football for nearly a decade
Black who now resides in California works as the talent spotter and stage manager with the broadcast crew of Mike Tirico Jon Gruden and Ron Jaworski on the ESPN Monday Night Foot-
ball crew that was in Seattle for the Seahawks Week 14 division matchup with the St Louis Rams at Century Link Field
He took some time to chat with the Reporter about working with such recognizable characters in the booth the life of a production crew mem-ber and his best memories as a Wolverine
BELLEVUE REPORTER How oft en do you make it back to the Pacifi c Northwest and Bel-levue
MIKE BLACK With my schedule with col-lege football and the NFL itrsquos anytime we do a Seahawks Monday night game or the last three or four years a couple UW games here and there I hope for one a year at least
BR When yoursquore back in town what are your must-visit spots
MB Irsquove got to eat at Spud Fish and Chips I make it over to Bellevue to check out the old stomping grounds and to the UW right on the water because thatrsquos where we spread my dadrsquos ashes
BR How did you land with the Monday Night Football crew
MB ESPN took it [MNF] over in 2006 and me and Tirico have been together since before then I was on the ABC Monday Night crew doing a diff erent job the previous few years and were on the Th ursday college package before we made the switch to Monday night
BR All of the guys in the booth are quite the characters on the air Does it change when the cameras switch off
MNF is homecoming for Bellevue man

MB Th eyrsquore totally easy-going Aft er I played at Boise State I played in the Arena League for 10 years so I have a history with Gruden I used to compete against Jay his younger brother who is now the off ensive coordinator with the Bengals Jay was a coach with the Orlando Preda-tors so when Jon got on the show it was pretty cool because I had the history with his brother Jaworski is heavily involved in the Arena League still and wersquove known each other over the years so when he got assigned to the show it was awesome When Jaws came on it was great and when Gruden was an-nounced it got that much better Th e guys are so relaxed leading up to the game and theyrsquore pretty self-suffi cient It seems like they are everybodyrsquos best friends on the crew
BR You have obviously
remained close to football and have a passion for it What are a few of the high-lights from your prep days
MB Th e senior year I had and being so close with my teammates and guys I grew up with is what I remember most We lost in the fi rst round of the play-off s so obviously that was disappointing But having that as my fi rst full season of high school playing it was a great memory and I knew I wanted to play in college somewhere
BR Do you keep up with the Wolverines and what do you think of where the program is today
MB Itrsquos amazing to see whatrsquos happened to Bel-levue Itrsquos great to come back and see it Where I see it the most is in USA Today when I read it on the road I see the weekly rankings and they keep creeping up Itrsquos really cool itrsquos hard to believe

Developers Wright Runstead have submitted an applica-tion for what could turn out to be the next big issue in Bel-levue the Spring District
Th e $15 billion development includes 36 acres of land now occupied by the Safeway distribution site It is planned to include a mixed-use of offi ce towers retail outlets and residences
Th e development is a transit-oriented project meaning it is primarily centered around the construction of East Link light-rail through Bellevue One of the centerpieces of the development a new hotel will have an entrance to a light-rail station according to planning documents submitted to the city
Th e project is slated to be built over a 15-year period in seven distinct phases According to Wright Runsteadrsquos appli-cation developers hope to begin construction on the project in the fi rst quarter of 2012 However city representatives said the review of the plan which does not involve a public hearing would likely take until the early summer Th ose interested can submit public comments about the plan to the city until Dec 22 at 5 pm
Th e new project is projected to bring nearly 37000 vehicle trips per day into the area on 124th Avenue Northeast south of Bel-Red Road including more than 3700 during peak evening time the busiest in Bellevue Road improvements to 120th Avenue Northeast and the creation of a new street - Northeast 15th16th - will help free traffi c once the new buildings come in Th ese are projects in Bellevuersquos budget
Th e issue of paying for the part of the project became an issue this election season Several candidates running for Bellevue City Council opposed impact fee breaks for the project citing Bellevuersquos tenuous budget situation
Th e project was an important item on the council in 2009 Th e body decided to rezone the area for light industrial and residential development Th e city and Wright Runstead reached a development agreement around that time Nat Levy can be reached at 425-453-4290

It took less than 20 minutes for crews to raise the 10-story-foot-tall tent spanning more than 26000 square feet Unlike traditional circular circus tents the Cavalia tent is built to be big enough to allow the horses freedom to move during the show so the audience sits on one side and the show takes place on the opposite side
Kevin Brown director of King County Parks and Recreation said he was pleased that the show is fi nally coming to Redmond aft er years of discussing the possibility with Cavalias artistic director Normand Latourelle who cofounded Cirque du Soleil before breaking away 20 years
agoWhile Marymoor has hosted numerous Cirque shows
this will be the fi rst time it has housed a show by Cavalia mdash the name of Latourelles company as well as this particular performance Th e company additionally has another show called Odysseo playing in the south
Latourelle said the inspiration for a show with horses came in the early 2000s when he used a horse in a previ-ous show that simply walked across the stage People were transfi xed by that animal more than the human perform-ers
In an age where many people live in cities and are becoming increasingly removed from nature the chance to see a show with these majestic animals is special Latourelle said Th e relationship between human and horse goes back thousands of years Th roughout various cultures people rode horses for many aspects of life from travel to hunting Th is history is presented in the show
Even people who dont know horses come to this show and they are moved by what they see Latourelle said Its in their blood Its because of our ancestors

alsquoCirque du Soleil with horsesrsquo headed to the Eastside
Normand Latourelle cofounded Cirque du Soleil before forming his own show lsquoCavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horsersquo which opens Jan 24 at Marymoor Park CHAD COLEMAN Bellevue Reporter
Th e Assistance League of the Eastside annual signa-ture fundraiser ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo took place on Friday Dec 9 in Kirkland Th is yearrsquos chairs were League members Kay Zatine and Susie Hino
ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo was a self-guided tour of six unique homes beautifully decorated for the holidays All proceeds from this annual event will help fund the philanthropic programs of the Assistance League of the Eastside that include Operation School Bell Assault Survivor Kits Starting Over Support and Assistance League Outreach Th ese programs provide new clothing to more than 2600 students selected by school personnel in the Lake Washington Bellevue and Northshore school districts help to restore dignity to survivors of sexual assault with clothing to replace items retained as evidence by the police and bring comfort to families seek-ing shelter from domestic violence
Each of the six homes were decorated with the seasonrsquos holiday themes and color palettes all embrac-ing the beauty of Christmas Miranda Roberts VP of communications for the Assistance League shared ldquoHouse 1 Was a twin-kling clerestory of modern living House 2 35 bins of deacutecor completed this themed house that included more than 100 Nutcrack-ers collected over the years House 3 Juxtapositioning
of contemporary and vintage Holiday collections House 4 Tastefully and elegantly decorated showcasing the view of the Lake House 5
Artful design-er deacutecor from the ceiling to fl oor with a wrap-around verandah and House 6 Heirloom decor in a classical Lake Washington
setting with over 15 deco-rated treesrdquo
My favorite decorations were in 6 the lovely wa-terfront home of Diane and Paul Birkeland Upon enter-ing your eyes were imme-diately drawn to the spiral staircase that was wrapped with garland ribbons and ornaments on the right and a small decorator tree placed
on top of the piano on the left Also two more of the many designer trees were on display By far my favorite tree was the Christopher Radko ornament tree in the living room Every room
was beautifully decorated for Christmas

Mike Black grew up in Bellevue and was an All-KingCo selection for the Wolverines in 1986 as a place kicker and punter Aft er his prep career fi nished Black continued playing at Boise State University where he was coached by Sea-hawks quarterback and legend Jim Zorn
A lifelong Hawks fan who attended nearly all of the teamrsquos home games from 1976 until leav-ing for college in 1987 Black has been part of the ESPN-ABC crew that produces Monday Night Football and Th ursday night NCAA football for nearly a decade
Black who now resides in California works as the talent spotter and stage manager with the broadcast crew of Mike Tirico Jon Gruden and Ron Jaworski on the ESPN Monday Night Foot-
ball crew that was in Seattle for the Seahawks Week 14 division matchup with the St Louis Rams at Century Link Field
He took some time to chat with the Reporter about working with such recognizable characters in the booth the life of a production crew mem-ber and his best memories as a Wolverine
BELLEVUE REPORTER How oft en do you make it back to the Pacifi c Northwest and Bel-levue
MIKE BLACK With my schedule with col-lege football and the NFL itrsquos anytime we do a Seahawks Monday night game or the last three or four years a couple UW games here and there I hope for one a year at least
BR When yoursquore back in town what are your must-visit spots
MB Irsquove got to eat at Spud Fish and Chips I make it over to Bellevue to check out the old stomping grounds and to the UW right on the water because thatrsquos where we spread my dadrsquos ashes
BR How did you land with the Monday Night Football crew
MB ESPN took it [MNF] over in 2006 and me and Tirico have been together since before then I was on the ABC Monday Night crew doing a diff erent job the previous few years and were on the Th ursday college package before we made the switch to Monday night
BR All of the guys in the booth are quite the characters on the air Does it change when the cameras switch off
MNF is homecoming for Bellevue man

MB Th eyrsquore totally easy-going Aft er I played at Boise State I played in the Arena League for 10 years so I have a history with Gruden I used to compete against Jay his younger brother who is now the off ensive coordinator with the Bengals Jay was a coach with the Orlando Preda-tors so when Jon got on the show it was pretty cool because I had the history with his brother Jaworski is heavily involved in the Arena League still and wersquove known each other over the years so when he got assigned to the show it was awesome When Jaws came on it was great and when Gruden was an-nounced it got that much better Th e guys are so relaxed leading up to the game and theyrsquore pretty self-suffi cient It seems like they are everybodyrsquos best friends on the crew
BR You have obviously
remained close to football and have a passion for it What are a few of the high-lights from your prep days
MB Th e senior year I had and being so close with my teammates and guys I grew up with is what I remember most We lost in the fi rst round of the play-off s so obviously that was disappointing But having that as my fi rst full season of high school playing it was a great memory and I knew I wanted to play in college somewhere
BR Do you keep up with the Wolverines and what do you think of where the program is today
MB Itrsquos amazing to see whatrsquos happened to Bel-levue Itrsquos great to come back and see it Where I see it the most is in USA Today when I read it on the road I see the weekly rankings and they keep creeping up Itrsquos really cool itrsquos hard to believe

Developers Wright Runstead have submitted an applica-tion for what could turn out to be the next big issue in Bel-levue the Spring District
Th e $15 billion development includes 36 acres of land now occupied by the Safeway distribution site It is planned to include a mixed-use of offi ce towers retail outlets and residences
Th e development is a transit-oriented project meaning it is primarily centered around the construction of East Link light-rail through Bellevue One of the centerpieces of the development a new hotel will have an entrance to a light-rail station according to planning documents submitted to the city
Th e project is slated to be built over a 15-year period in seven distinct phases According to Wright Runsteadrsquos appli-cation developers hope to begin construction on the project in the fi rst quarter of 2012 However city representatives said the review of the plan which does not involve a public hearing would likely take until the early summer Th ose interested can submit public comments about the plan to the city until Dec 22 at 5 pm
Th e new project is projected to bring nearly 37000 vehicle trips per day into the area on 124th Avenue Northeast south of Bel-Red Road including more than 3700 during peak evening time the busiest in Bellevue Road improvements to 120th Avenue Northeast and the creation of a new street - Northeast 15th16th - will help free traffi c once the new buildings come in Th ese are projects in Bellevuersquos budget
Th e issue of paying for the part of the project became an issue this election season Several candidates running for Bellevue City Council opposed impact fee breaks for the project citing Bellevuersquos tenuous budget situation
Th e project was an important item on the council in 2009 Th e body decided to rezone the area for light industrial and residential development Th e city and Wright Runstead reached a development agreement around that time Nat Levy can be reached at 425-453-4290

Marymoor Park was abuzz with the raising of the circus tent for the show Cavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horse on Dec 8
Cavalia includes acrobatics aerialists music dance and of course ndash equestrian stunts Its like Cirque du Soleil but with horses When the show opens Jan 24 itrsquos expected to have the same draw as Cirque shows gaining audience members from across the Eastside Greater Seattle and even across the region
It took less than 20 minutes for crews to raise the 10-story-foot-tall tent spanning more than 26000 square feet Unlike traditional circular circus tents the Cavalia tent is built to be big enough to allow the horses freedom to move during the show so the audience sits on one side and the show takes place on the opposite side
Kevin Brown director of King County Parks and Recreation said he was pleased that the show is fi nally coming to Redmond aft er years of discussing the possibility with Cavalias artistic director Normand Latourelle who cofounded Cirque du Soleil before breaking away 20 years
agoWhile Marymoor has hosted numerous Cirque shows
this will be the fi rst time it has housed a show by Cavalia mdash the name of Latourelles company as well as this particular performance Th e company additionally has another show called Odysseo playing in the south
Latourelle said the inspiration for a show with horses came in the early 2000s when he used a horse in a previ-ous show that simply walked across the stage People were transfi xed by that animal more than the human perform-ers
In an age where many people live in cities and are becoming increasingly removed from nature the chance to see a show with these majestic animals is special Latourelle said Th e relationship between human and horse goes back thousands of years Th roughout various cultures people rode horses for many aspects of life from travel to hunting Th is history is presented in the show
Even people who dont know horses come to this show and they are moved by what they see Latourelle said Its in their blood Its because of our ancestors

Each of the six homes were decorated with the seasonrsquos holiday themes and color palettes all embrac-ing the beauty of Christmas Miranda Roberts VP of communications for the Assistance League shared ldquoHouse 1 Was a twin-kling clerestory of modern living House 2 35 bins of deacutecor completed this themed house that included more than 100 Nutcrack-ers collected over the years House 3 Juxtapositioning
of contemporary and vintage Holiday collections House 4 Tastefully and elegantly decorated showcasing the view of the Lake House 5
Artful design-er deacutecor from the ceiling to fl oor with a wrap-around verandah and House 6 Heirloom decor in a classical Lake Washington
setting with over 15 deco-rated treesrdquo
My favorite decorations were in 6 the lovely wa-terfront home of Diane and Paul Birkeland Upon enter-ing your eyes were imme-diately drawn to the spiral staircase that was wrapped with garland ribbons and ornaments on the right and a small decorator tree placed
on top of the piano on the left Also two more of the many designer trees were on display By far my favorite tree was the Christopher Radko ornament tree in the living room Every room
was beautifully decorated for Christmas

MB Th eyrsquore totally easy-going Aft er I played at Boise State I played in the Arena League for 10 years so I have a history with Gruden I used to compete against Jay his younger brother who is now the off ensive coordinator with the Bengals Jay was a coach with the Orlando Preda-tors so when Jon got on the show it was pretty cool because I had the history with his brother Jaworski is heavily involved in the Arena League still and wersquove known each other over the years so when he got assigned to the show it was awesome When Jaws came on it was great and when Gruden was an-nounced it got that much better Th e guys are so relaxed leading up to the game and theyrsquore pretty self-suffi cient It seems like they are everybodyrsquos best friends on the crew
BR You have obviously
remained close to football and have a passion for it What are a few of the high-lights from your prep days
MB Th e senior year I had and being so close with my teammates and guys I grew up with is what I remember most We lost in the fi rst round of the play-off s so obviously that was disappointing But having that as my fi rst full season of high school playing it was a great memory and I knew I wanted to play in college somewhere
BR Do you keep up with the Wolverines and what do you think of where the program is today
MB Itrsquos amazing to see whatrsquos happened to Bel-levue Itrsquos great to come back and see it Where I see it the most is in USA Today when I read it on the road I see the weekly rankings and they keep creeping up Itrsquos really cool itrsquos hard to believe

Developers Wright Runstead have submitted an applica-tion for what could turn out to be the next big issue in Bel-levue the Spring District
Th e $15 billion development includes 36 acres of land now occupied by the Safeway distribution site It is planned to include a mixed-use of offi ce towers retail outlets and residences
Th e development is a transit-oriented project meaning it is primarily centered around the construction of East Link light-rail through Bellevue One of the centerpieces of the development a new hotel will have an entrance to a light-rail station according to planning documents submitted to the city
Th e project is slated to be built over a 15-year period in seven distinct phases According to Wright Runsteadrsquos appli-cation developers hope to begin construction on the project in the fi rst quarter of 2012 However city representatives said the review of the plan which does not involve a public hearing would likely take until the early summer Th ose interested can submit public comments about the plan to the city until Dec 22 at 5 pm
Th e new project is projected to bring nearly 37000 vehicle trips per day into the area on 124th Avenue Northeast south of Bel-Red Road including more than 3700 during peak evening time the busiest in Bellevue Road improvements to 120th Avenue Northeast and the creation of a new street - Northeast 15th16th - will help free traffi c once the new buildings come in Th ese are projects in Bellevuersquos budget
Th e issue of paying for the part of the project became an issue this election season Several candidates running for Bellevue City Council opposed impact fee breaks for the project citing Bellevuersquos tenuous budget situation
Th e project was an important item on the council in 2009 Th e body decided to rezone the area for light industrial and residential development Th e city and Wright Runstead reached a development agreement around that time Nat Levy can be reached at 425-453-4290

Marymoor Park was abuzz with the raising of the circus tent for the show Cavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horse on Dec 8
Cavalia includes acrobatics aerialists music dance and of course ndash equestrian stunts Its like Cirque du Soleil but with horses When the show opens Jan 24 itrsquos expected to have the same draw as Cirque shows gaining audience members from across the Eastside Greater Seattle and even across the region
It took less than 20 minutes for crews to raise the 10-story-foot-tall tent spanning more than 26000 square feet Unlike traditional circular circus tents the Cavalia tent is built to be big enough to allow the horses freedom to move during the show so the audience sits on one side and the show takes place on the opposite side
Kevin Brown director of King County Parks and Recreation said he was pleased that the show is fi nally coming to Redmond aft er years of discussing the possibility with Cavalias artistic director Normand Latourelle who cofounded Cirque du Soleil before breaking away 20 years
agoWhile Marymoor has hosted numerous Cirque shows
this will be the fi rst time it has housed a show by Cavalia mdash the name of Latourelles company as well as this particular performance Th e company additionally has another show called Odysseo playing in the south
Latourelle said the inspiration for a show with horses came in the early 2000s when he used a horse in a previ-ous show that simply walked across the stage People were transfi xed by that animal more than the human perform-ers
In an age where many people live in cities and are becoming increasingly removed from nature the chance to see a show with these majestic animals is special Latourelle said Th e relationship between human and horse goes back thousands of years Th roughout various cultures people rode horses for many aspects of life from travel to hunting Th is history is presented in the show
Even people who dont know horses come to this show and they are moved by what they see Latourelle said Its in their blood Its because of our ancestors

My favorite decorations were in 6 the lovely wa-terfront home of Diane and Paul Birkeland Upon enter-ing your eyes were imme-diately drawn to the spiral staircase that was wrapped with garland ribbons and ornaments on the right and a small decorator tree placed
on top of the piano on the left Also two more of the many designer trees were on display By far my favorite tree was the Christopher Radko ornament tree in the living room Every room
was beautifully decorated for Christmas

Mike Black grew up in Bellevue and was an All-KingCo selection for the Wolverines in 1986 as a place kicker and punter Aft er his prep career fi nished Black continued playing at Boise State University where he was coached by Sea-hawks quarterback and legend Jim Zorn
A lifelong Hawks fan who attended nearly all of the teamrsquos home games from 1976 until leav-ing for college in 1987 Black has been part of the ESPN-ABC crew that produces Monday Night Football and Th ursday night NCAA football for nearly a decade
Black who now resides in California works as the talent spotter and stage manager with the broadcast crew of Mike Tirico Jon Gruden and Ron Jaworski on the ESPN Monday Night Foot-
ball crew that was in Seattle for the Seahawks Week 14 division matchup with the St Louis Rams at Century Link Field
He took some time to chat with the Reporter about working with such recognizable characters in the booth the life of a production crew mem-ber and his best memories as a Wolverine
BELLEVUE REPORTER How oft en do you make it back to the Pacifi c Northwest and Bel-levue
MIKE BLACK With my schedule with col-lege football and the NFL itrsquos anytime we do a Seahawks Monday night game or the last three or four years a couple UW games here and there I hope for one a year at least
BR When yoursquore back in town what are your must-visit spots
MB Irsquove got to eat at Spud Fish and Chips I make it over to Bellevue to check out the old stomping grounds and to the UW right on the water because thatrsquos where we spread my dadrsquos ashes
BR How did you land with the Monday Night Football crew
MB ESPN took it [MNF] over in 2006 and me and Tirico have been together since before then I was on the ABC Monday Night crew doing a diff erent job the previous few years and were on the Th ursday college package before we made the switch to Monday night
BR All of the guys in the booth are quite the characters on the air Does it change when the cameras switch off
MNF is homecoming for Bellevue man

MB Th eyrsquore totally easy-going Aft er I played at Boise State I played in the Arena League for 10 years so I have a history with Gruden I used to compete against Jay his younger brother who is now the off ensive coordinator with the Bengals Jay was a coach with the Orlando Preda-tors so when Jon got on the show it was pretty cool because I had the history with his brother Jaworski is heavily involved in the Arena League still and wersquove known each other over the years so when he got assigned to the show it was awesome When Jaws came on it was great and when Gruden was an-nounced it got that much better Th e guys are so relaxed leading up to the game and theyrsquore pretty self-suffi cient It seems like they are everybodyrsquos best friends on the crew
BR You have obviously
remained close to football and have a passion for it What are a few of the high-lights from your prep days
MB Th e senior year I had and being so close with my teammates and guys I grew up with is what I remember most We lost in the fi rst round of the play-off s so obviously that was disappointing But having that as my fi rst full season of high school playing it was a great memory and I knew I wanted to play in college somewhere
BR Do you keep up with the Wolverines and what do you think of where the program is today
MB Itrsquos amazing to see whatrsquos happened to Bel-levue Itrsquos great to come back and see it Where I see it the most is in USA Today when I read it on the road I see the weekly rankings and they keep creeping up Itrsquos really cool itrsquos hard to believe

Developers Wright Runstead have submitted an applica-tion for what could turn out to be the next big issue in Bel-levue the Spring District
Th e $15 billion development includes 36 acres of land now occupied by the Safeway distribution site It is planned to include a mixed-use of offi ce towers retail outlets and residences
Th e development is a transit-oriented project meaning it is primarily centered around the construction of East Link light-rail through Bellevue One of the centerpieces of the development a new hotel will have an entrance to a light-rail station according to planning documents submitted to the city
Th e project is slated to be built over a 15-year period in seven distinct phases According to Wright Runsteadrsquos appli-cation developers hope to begin construction on the project in the fi rst quarter of 2012 However city representatives said the review of the plan which does not involve a public hearing would likely take until the early summer Th ose interested can submit public comments about the plan to the city until Dec 22 at 5 pm
Th e new project is projected to bring nearly 37000 vehicle trips per day into the area on 124th Avenue Northeast south of Bel-Red Road including more than 3700 during peak evening time the busiest in Bellevue Road improvements to 120th Avenue Northeast and the creation of a new street - Northeast 15th16th - will help free traffi c once the new buildings come in Th ese are projects in Bellevuersquos budget
Th e issue of paying for the part of the project became an issue this election season Several candidates running for Bellevue City Council opposed impact fee breaks for the project citing Bellevuersquos tenuous budget situation
Th e project was an important item on the council in 2009 Th e body decided to rezone the area for light industrial and residential development Th e city and Wright Runstead reached a development agreement around that time Nat Levy can be reached at 425-453-4290

Marymoor Park was abuzz with the raising of the circus tent for the show Cavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horse on Dec 8
Cavalia includes acrobatics aerialists music dance and of course ndash equestrian stunts Its like Cirque du Soleil but with horses When the show opens Jan 24 itrsquos expected to have the same draw as Cirque shows gaining audience members from across the Eastside Greater Seattle and even across the region
It took less than 20 minutes for crews to raise the 10-story-foot-tall tent spanning more than 26000 square feet Unlike traditional circular circus tents the Cavalia tent is built to be big enough to allow the horses freedom to move during the show so the audience sits on one side and the show takes place on the opposite side
Kevin Brown director of King County Parks and Recreation said he was pleased that the show is fi nally coming to Redmond aft er years of discussing the possibility with Cavalias artistic director Normand Latourelle who cofounded Cirque du Soleil before breaking away 20 years
agoWhile Marymoor has hosted numerous Cirque shows
this will be the fi rst time it has housed a show by Cavalia mdash the name of Latourelles company as well as this particular performance Th e company additionally has another show called Odysseo playing in the south
Latourelle said the inspiration for a show with horses came in the early 2000s when he used a horse in a previ-ous show that simply walked across the stage People were transfi xed by that animal more than the human perform-ers
In an age where many people live in cities and are becoming increasingly removed from nature the chance to see a show with these majestic animals is special Latourelle said Th e relationship between human and horse goes back thousands of years Th roughout various cultures people rode horses for many aspects of life from travel to hunting Th is history is presented in the show
Even people who dont know horses come to this show and they are moved by what they see Latourelle said Its in their blood Its because of our ancestors

alsquoCirque du Soleil with horsesrsquo headed to the Eastside
Normand Latourelle cofounded Cirque du Soleil before forming his own show lsquoCavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horsersquo which opens Jan 24 at Marymoor Park CHAD COLEMAN Bellevue Reporter
Th e Assistance League of the Eastside annual signa-ture fundraiser ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo took place on Friday Dec 9 in Kirkland Th is yearrsquos chairs were League members Kay Zatine and Susie Hino
ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo was a self-guided tour of six unique homes beautifully decorated for the holidays All proceeds from this annual event will help fund the philanthropic programs of the Assistance League of the Eastside that include Operation School Bell Assault Survivor Kits Starting Over Support and Assistance League Outreach Th ese programs provide new clothing to more than 2600 students selected by school personnel in the Lake Washington Bellevue and Northshore school districts help to restore dignity to survivors of sexual assault with clothing to replace items retained as evidence by the police and bring comfort to families seek-ing shelter from domestic violence
Each of the six homes were decorated with the seasonrsquos holiday themes and color palettes all embrac-ing the beauty of Christmas Miranda Roberts VP of communications for the Assistance League shared ldquoHouse 1 Was a twin-kling clerestory of modern living House 2 35 bins of deacutecor completed this themed house that included more than 100 Nutcrack-ers collected over the years House 3 Juxtapositioning
of contemporary and vintage Holiday collections House 4 Tastefully and elegantly decorated showcasing the view of the Lake House 5
Artful design-er deacutecor from the ceiling to fl oor with a wrap-around verandah and House 6 Heirloom decor in a classical Lake Washington
setting with over 15 deco-rated treesrdquo
My favorite decorations were in 6 the lovely wa-terfront home of Diane and Paul Birkeland Upon enter-ing your eyes were imme-diately drawn to the spiral staircase that was wrapped with garland ribbons and ornaments on the right and a small decorator tree placed
on top of the piano on the left Also two more of the many designer trees were on display By far my favorite tree was the Christopher Radko ornament tree in the living room Every room
was beautifully decorated for Christmas

Mike Black grew up in Bellevue and was an All-KingCo selection for the Wolverines in 1986 as a place kicker and punter Aft er his prep career fi nished Black continued playing at Boise State University where he was coached by Sea-hawks quarterback and legend Jim Zorn
A lifelong Hawks fan who attended nearly all of the teamrsquos home games from 1976 until leav-ing for college in 1987 Black has been part of the ESPN-ABC crew that produces Monday Night Football and Th ursday night NCAA football for nearly a decade
Black who now resides in California works as the talent spotter and stage manager with the broadcast crew of Mike Tirico Jon Gruden and Ron Jaworski on the ESPN Monday Night Foot-
ball crew that was in Seattle for the Seahawks Week 14 division matchup with the St Louis Rams at Century Link Field
He took some time to chat with the Reporter about working with such recognizable characters in the booth the life of a production crew mem-ber and his best memories as a Wolverine
BELLEVUE REPORTER How oft en do you make it back to the Pacifi c Northwest and Bel-levue
MIKE BLACK With my schedule with col-lege football and the NFL itrsquos anytime we do a Seahawks Monday night game or the last three or four years a couple UW games here and there I hope for one a year at least
BR When yoursquore back in town what are your must-visit spots
MB Irsquove got to eat at Spud Fish and Chips I make it over to Bellevue to check out the old stomping grounds and to the UW right on the water because thatrsquos where we spread my dadrsquos ashes
BR How did you land with the Monday Night Football crew
MB ESPN took it [MNF] over in 2006 and me and Tirico have been together since before then I was on the ABC Monday Night crew doing a diff erent job the previous few years and were on the Th ursday college package before we made the switch to Monday night
BR All of the guys in the booth are quite the characters on the air Does it change when the cameras switch off
MNF is homecoming for Bellevue man

MB Th eyrsquore totally easy-going Aft er I played at Boise State I played in the Arena League for 10 years so I have a history with Gruden I used to compete against Jay his younger brother who is now the off ensive coordinator with the Bengals Jay was a coach with the Orlando Preda-tors so when Jon got on the show it was pretty cool because I had the history with his brother Jaworski is heavily involved in the Arena League still and wersquove known each other over the years so when he got assigned to the show it was awesome When Jaws came on it was great and when Gruden was an-nounced it got that much better Th e guys are so relaxed leading up to the game and theyrsquore pretty self-suffi cient It seems like they are everybodyrsquos best friends on the crew
BR You have obviously
remained close to football and have a passion for it What are a few of the high-lights from your prep days
MB Th e senior year I had and being so close with my teammates and guys I grew up with is what I remember most We lost in the fi rst round of the play-off s so obviously that was disappointing But having that as my fi rst full season of high school playing it was a great memory and I knew I wanted to play in college somewhere
BR Do you keep up with the Wolverines and what do you think of where the program is today
MB Itrsquos amazing to see whatrsquos happened to Bel-levue Itrsquos great to come back and see it Where I see it the most is in USA Today when I read it on the road I see the weekly rankings and they keep creeping up Itrsquos really cool itrsquos hard to believe

Developers Wright Runstead have submitted an applica-tion for what could turn out to be the next big issue in Bel-levue the Spring District
Th e $15 billion development includes 36 acres of land now occupied by the Safeway distribution site It is planned to include a mixed-use of offi ce towers retail outlets and residences
Th e development is a transit-oriented project meaning it is primarily centered around the construction of East Link light-rail through Bellevue One of the centerpieces of the development a new hotel will have an entrance to a light-rail station according to planning documents submitted to the city
Th e project is slated to be built over a 15-year period in seven distinct phases According to Wright Runsteadrsquos appli-cation developers hope to begin construction on the project in the fi rst quarter of 2012 However city representatives said the review of the plan which does not involve a public hearing would likely take until the early summer Th ose interested can submit public comments about the plan to the city until Dec 22 at 5 pm
Th e new project is projected to bring nearly 37000 vehicle trips per day into the area on 124th Avenue Northeast south of Bel-Red Road including more than 3700 during peak evening time the busiest in Bellevue Road improvements to 120th Avenue Northeast and the creation of a new street - Northeast 15th16th - will help free traffi c once the new buildings come in Th ese are projects in Bellevuersquos budget
Th e issue of paying for the part of the project became an issue this election season Several candidates running for Bellevue City Council opposed impact fee breaks for the project citing Bellevuersquos tenuous budget situation
Th e project was an important item on the council in 2009 Th e body decided to rezone the area for light industrial and residential development Th e city and Wright Runstead reached a development agreement around that time Nat Levy can be reached at 425-453-4290

Marymoor Park was abuzz with the raising of the circus tent for the show Cavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horse on Dec 8
Cavalia includes acrobatics aerialists music dance and of course ndash equestrian stunts Its like Cirque du Soleil but with horses When the show opens Jan 24 itrsquos expected to have the same draw as Cirque shows gaining audience members from across the Eastside Greater Seattle and even across the region
It took less than 20 minutes for crews to raise the 10-story-foot-tall tent spanning more than 26000 square feet Unlike traditional circular circus tents the Cavalia tent is built to be big enough to allow the horses freedom to move during the show so the audience sits on one side and the show takes place on the opposite side
Kevin Brown director of King County Parks and Recreation said he was pleased that the show is fi nally coming to Redmond aft er years of discussing the possibility with Cavalias artistic director Normand Latourelle who cofounded Cirque du Soleil before breaking away 20 years
agoWhile Marymoor has hosted numerous Cirque shows
this will be the fi rst time it has housed a show by Cavalia mdash the name of Latourelles company as well as this particular performance Th e company additionally has another show called Odysseo playing in the south
Latourelle said the inspiration for a show with horses came in the early 2000s when he used a horse in a previ-ous show that simply walked across the stage People were transfi xed by that animal more than the human perform-ers
In an age where many people live in cities and are becoming increasingly removed from nature the chance to see a show with these majestic animals is special Latourelle said Th e relationship between human and horse goes back thousands of years Th roughout various cultures people rode horses for many aspects of life from travel to hunting Th is history is presented in the show
Even people who dont know horses come to this show and they are moved by what they see Latourelle said Its in their blood Its because of our ancestors

alsquoCirque du Soleil with horsesrsquo headed to the Eastside
Normand Latourelle cofounded Cirque du Soleil before forming his own show lsquoCavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horsersquo which opens Jan 24 at Marymoor Park CHAD COLEMAN Bellevue Reporter
Th e Assistance League of the Eastside annual signa-ture fundraiser ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo took place on Friday Dec 9 in Kirkland Th is yearrsquos chairs were League members Kay Zatine and Susie Hino
ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo was a self-guided tour of six unique homes beautifully decorated for the holidays All proceeds from this annual event will help fund the philanthropic programs of the Assistance League of the Eastside that include Operation School Bell Assault Survivor Kits Starting Over Support and Assistance League Outreach Th ese programs provide new clothing to more than 2600 students selected by school personnel in the Lake Washington Bellevue and Northshore school districts help to restore dignity to survivors of sexual assault with clothing to replace items retained as evidence by the police and bring comfort to families seek-ing shelter from domestic violence
Each of the six homes were decorated with the seasonrsquos holiday themes and color palettes all embrac-ing the beauty of Christmas Miranda Roberts VP of communications for the Assistance League shared ldquoHouse 1 Was a twin-kling clerestory of modern living House 2 35 bins of deacutecor completed this themed house that included more than 100 Nutcrack-ers collected over the years House 3 Juxtapositioning
of contemporary and vintage Holiday collections House 4 Tastefully and elegantly decorated showcasing the view of the Lake House 5
Artful design-er deacutecor from the ceiling to fl oor with a wrap-around verandah and House 6 Heirloom decor in a classical Lake Washington
setting with over 15 deco-rated treesrdquo
My favorite decorations were in 6 the lovely wa-terfront home of Diane and Paul Birkeland Upon enter-ing your eyes were imme-diately drawn to the spiral staircase that was wrapped with garland ribbons and ornaments on the right and a small decorator tree placed
on top of the piano on the left Also two more of the many designer trees were on display By far my favorite tree was the Christopher Radko ornament tree in the living room Every room
was beautifully decorated for Christmas

Mike Black grew up in Bellevue and was an All-KingCo selection for the Wolverines in 1986 as a place kicker and punter Aft er his prep career fi nished Black continued playing at Boise State University where he was coached by Sea-hawks quarterback and legend Jim Zorn
A lifelong Hawks fan who attended nearly all of the teamrsquos home games from 1976 until leav-ing for college in 1987 Black has been part of the ESPN-ABC crew that produces Monday Night Football and Th ursday night NCAA football for nearly a decade
Black who now resides in California works as the talent spotter and stage manager with the broadcast crew of Mike Tirico Jon Gruden and Ron Jaworski on the ESPN Monday Night Foot-
ball crew that was in Seattle for the Seahawks Week 14 division matchup with the St Louis Rams at Century Link Field
He took some time to chat with the Reporter about working with such recognizable characters in the booth the life of a production crew mem-ber and his best memories as a Wolverine
BELLEVUE REPORTER How oft en do you make it back to the Pacifi c Northwest and Bel-levue

MB Irsquove got to eat at Spud Fish and Chips I make it over to Bellevue to check out the old stomping grounds and to the UW right on the water because thatrsquos where we spread my dadrsquos ashes
BR How did you land with the Monday Night Football crew
MB ESPN took it [MNF] over in 2006 and me and Tirico have been together since before then I was on the ABC Monday Night crew doing a diff erent job the previous few years and were on the Th ursday college package before we made the switch to Monday night
BR All of the guys in the booth are quite the characters on the air Does it change when the cameras switch off
MNF is homecoming for Bellevue man

MB Th eyrsquore totally easy-going Aft er I played at Boise State I played in the Arena League for 10 years so I have a history with Gruden I used to compete against Jay his younger brother who is now the off ensive coordinator with the Bengals Jay was a coach with the Orlando Preda-tors so when Jon got on the show it was pretty cool because I had the history with his brother Jaworski is heavily involved in the Arena League still and wersquove known each other over the years so when he got assigned to the show it was awesome When Jaws came on it was great and when Gruden was an-nounced it got that much better Th e guys are so relaxed leading up to the game and theyrsquore pretty self-suffi cient It seems like they are everybodyrsquos best friends on the crew
BR You have obviously
remained close to football and have a passion for it What are a few of the high-lights from your prep days
MB Th e senior year I had and being so close with my teammates and guys I grew up with is what I remember most We lost in the fi rst round of the play-off s so obviously that was disappointing But having that as my fi rst full season of high school playing it was a great memory and I knew I wanted to play in college somewhere
BR Do you keep up with the Wolverines and what do you think of where the program is today
MB Itrsquos amazing to see whatrsquos happened to Bel-levue Itrsquos great to come back and see it Where I see it the most is in USA Today when I read it on the road I see the weekly rankings and they keep creeping up Itrsquos really cool itrsquos hard to believe

Developers Wright Runstead have submitted an applica-tion for what could turn out to be the next big issue in Bel-levue the Spring District
Th e $15 billion development includes 36 acres of land now occupied by the Safeway distribution site It is planned to include a mixed-use of offi ce towers retail outlets and residences
Th e development is a transit-oriented project meaning it is primarily centered around the construction of East Link light-rail through Bellevue One of the centerpieces of the development a new hotel will have an entrance to a light-rail station according to planning documents submitted to the city
Th e project is slated to be built over a 15-year period in seven distinct phases According to Wright Runsteadrsquos appli-cation developers hope to begin construction on the project in the fi rst quarter of 2012 However city representatives said the review of the plan which does not involve a public hearing would likely take until the early summer Th ose interested can submit public comments about the plan to the city until Dec 22 at 5 pm
Th e new project is projected to bring nearly 37000 vehicle trips per day into the area on 124th Avenue Northeast south of Bel-Red Road including more than 3700 during peak evening time the busiest in Bellevue Road improvements to 120th Avenue Northeast and the creation of a new street - Northeast 15th16th - will help free traffi c once the new buildings come in Th ese are projects in Bellevuersquos budget
Th e issue of paying for the part of the project became an issue this election season Several candidates running for Bellevue City Council opposed impact fee breaks for the project citing Bellevuersquos tenuous budget situation
Th e project was an important item on the council in 2009 Th e body decided to rezone the area for light industrial and residential development Th e city and Wright Runstead reached a development agreement around that time Nat Levy can be reached at 425-453-4290

Marymoor Park was abuzz with the raising of the circus tent for the show Cavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horse on Dec 8
Cavalia includes acrobatics aerialists music dance and of course ndash equestrian stunts Its like Cirque du Soleil but with horses When the show opens Jan 24 itrsquos expected to have the same draw as Cirque shows gaining audience members from across the Eastside Greater Seattle and even across the region
It took less than 20 minutes for crews to raise the 10-story-foot-tall tent spanning more than 26000 square feet Unlike traditional circular circus tents the Cavalia tent is built to be big enough to allow the horses freedom to move during the show so the audience sits on one side and the show takes place on the opposite side
Kevin Brown director of King County Parks and Recreation said he was pleased that the show is fi nally coming to Redmond aft er years of discussing the possibility with Cavalias artistic director Normand Latourelle who cofounded Cirque du Soleil before breaking away 20 years
agoWhile Marymoor has hosted numerous Cirque shows
this will be the fi rst time it has housed a show by Cavalia mdash the name of Latourelles company as well as this particular performance Th e company additionally has another show called Odysseo playing in the south
Latourelle said the inspiration for a show with horses came in the early 2000s when he used a horse in a previ-ous show that simply walked across the stage People were transfi xed by that animal more than the human perform-ers
In an age where many people live in cities and are becoming increasingly removed from nature the chance to see a show with these majestic animals is special Latourelle said Th e relationship between human and horse goes back thousands of years Th roughout various cultures people rode horses for many aspects of life from travel to hunting Th is history is presented in the show
Even people who dont know horses come to this show and they are moved by what they see Latourelle said Its in their blood Its because of our ancestors

Th e Assistance League of the Eastside annual signa-ture fundraiser ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo took place on Friday Dec 9 in Kirkland Th is yearrsquos chairs were League members Kay Zatine and Susie Hino
ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo was a self-guided tour of six unique homes beautifully decorated for the holidays All proceeds from this annual event will help fund the philanthropic programs of the Assistance League of the Eastside that include Operation School Bell Assault Survivor Kits Starting Over Support and Assistance League Outreach Th ese programs provide new clothing to more than 2600 students selected by school personnel in the Lake Washington Bellevue and Northshore school districts help to restore dignity to survivors of sexual assault with clothing to replace items retained as evidence by the police and bring comfort to families seek-ing shelter from domestic violence
Each of the six homes were decorated with the seasonrsquos holiday themes and color palettes all embrac-ing the beauty of Christmas Miranda Roberts VP of communications for the Assistance League shared ldquoHouse 1 Was a twin-kling clerestory of modern living House 2 35 bins of deacutecor completed this themed house that included more than 100 Nutcrack-ers collected over the years House 3 Juxtapositioning

My favorite decorations were in 6 the lovely wa-terfront home of Diane and Paul Birkeland Upon enter-ing your eyes were imme-diately drawn to the spiral staircase that was wrapped with garland ribbons and ornaments on the right and a small decorator tree placed
on top of the piano on the left Also two more of the many designer trees were on display By far my favorite tree was the Christopher Radko ornament tree in the living room Every room
was beautifully decorated for Christmas

MB Th eyrsquore totally easy-going Aft er I played at Boise State I played in the Arena League for 10 years so I have a history with Gruden I used to compete against Jay his younger brother who is now the off ensive coordinator with the Bengals Jay was a coach with the Orlando Preda-tors so when Jon got on the show it was pretty cool because I had the history with his brother Jaworski is heavily involved in the Arena League still and wersquove known each other over the years so when he got assigned to the show it was awesome When Jaws came on it was great and when Gruden was an-nounced it got that much better Th e guys are so relaxed leading up to the game and theyrsquore pretty self-suffi cient It seems like they are everybodyrsquos best friends on the crew
BR You have obviously
remained close to football and have a passion for it What are a few of the high-lights from your prep days
MB Th e senior year I had and being so close with my teammates and guys I grew up with is what I remember most We lost in the fi rst round of the play-off s so obviously that was disappointing But having that as my fi rst full season of high school playing it was a great memory and I knew I wanted to play in college somewhere
BR Do you keep up with the Wolverines and what do you think of where the program is today
MB Itrsquos amazing to see whatrsquos happened to Bel-levue Itrsquos great to come back and see it Where I see it the most is in USA Today when I read it on the road I see the weekly rankings and they keep creeping up Itrsquos really cool itrsquos hard to believe

Th e new project is projected to bring nearly 37000 vehicle trips per day into the area on 124th Avenue Northeast south of Bel-Red Road including more than 3700 during peak evening time the busiest in Bellevue Road improvements to 120th Avenue Northeast and the creation of a new street - Northeast 15th16th - will help free traffi c once the new buildings come in Th ese are projects in Bellevuersquos budget
Th e issue of paying for the part of the project became an issue this election season Several candidates running for Bellevue City Council opposed impact fee breaks for the project citing Bellevuersquos tenuous budget situation
Th e project was an important item on the council in 2009 Th e body decided to rezone the area for light industrial and residential development Th e city and Wright Runstead reached a development agreement around that time Nat Levy can be reached at 425-453-4290

Marymoor Park was abuzz with the raising of the circus tent for the show Cavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horse on Dec 8
Cavalia includes acrobatics aerialists music dance and of course ndash equestrian stunts Its like Cirque du Soleil but with horses When the show opens Jan 24 itrsquos expected to have the same draw as Cirque shows gaining audience members from across the Eastside Greater Seattle and even across the region
It took less than 20 minutes for crews to raise the 10-story-foot-tall tent spanning more than 26000 square feet Unlike traditional circular circus tents the Cavalia tent is built to be big enough to allow the horses freedom to move during the show so the audience sits on one side and the show takes place on the opposite side
Kevin Brown director of King County Parks and Recreation said he was pleased that the show is fi nally coming to Redmond aft er years of discussing the possibility with Cavalias artistic director Normand Latourelle who cofounded Cirque du Soleil before breaking away 20 years
agoWhile Marymoor has hosted numerous Cirque shows
this will be the fi rst time it has housed a show by Cavalia mdash the name of Latourelles company as well as this particular performance Th e company additionally has another show called Odysseo playing in the south
Latourelle said the inspiration for a show with horses came in the early 2000s when he used a horse in a previ-ous show that simply walked across the stage People were transfi xed by that animal more than the human perform-ers
In an age where many people live in cities and are becoming increasingly removed from nature the chance to see a show with these majestic animals is special Latourelle said Th e relationship between human and horse goes back thousands of years Th roughout various cultures people rode horses for many aspects of life from travel to hunting Th is history is presented in the show
Even people who dont know horses come to this show and they are moved by what they see Latourelle said Its in their blood Its because of our ancestors

alsquoCirque du Soleil with horsesrsquo headed to the Eastside
Normand Latourelle cofounded Cirque du Soleil before forming his own show lsquoCavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horsersquo which opens Jan 24 at Marymoor Park CHAD COLEMAN Bellevue Reporter
Th e Assistance League of the Eastside annual signa-ture fundraiser ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo took place on Friday Dec 9 in Kirkland Th is yearrsquos chairs were League members Kay Zatine and Susie Hino
ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo was a self-guided tour of six unique homes beautifully decorated for the holidays All proceeds from this annual event will help fund the philanthropic programs of the Assistance League of the Eastside that include Operation School Bell Assault Survivor Kits Starting Over Support and Assistance League Outreach Th ese programs provide new clothing to more than 2600 students selected by school personnel in the Lake Washington Bellevue and Northshore school districts help to restore dignity to survivors of sexual assault with clothing to replace items retained as evidence by the police and bring comfort to families seek-ing shelter from domestic violence
Each of the six homes were decorated with the seasonrsquos holiday themes and color palettes all embrac-ing the beauty of Christmas Miranda Roberts VP of communications for the Assistance League shared ldquoHouse 1 Was a twin-kling clerestory of modern living House 2 35 bins of deacutecor completed this themed house that included more than 100 Nutcrack-ers collected over the years House 3 Juxtapositioning
of contemporary and vintage Holiday collections House 4 Tastefully and elegantly decorated showcasing the view of the Lake House 5
Artful design-er deacutecor from the ceiling to fl oor with a wrap-around verandah and House 6 Heirloom decor in a classical Lake Washington
setting with over 15 deco-rated treesrdquo
My favorite decorations were in 6 the lovely wa-terfront home of Diane and Paul Birkeland Upon enter-ing your eyes were imme-diately drawn to the spiral staircase that was wrapped with garland ribbons and ornaments on the right and a small decorator tree placed
on top of the piano on the left Also two more of the many designer trees were on display By far my favorite tree was the Christopher Radko ornament tree in the living room Every room
was beautifully decorated for Christmas

Developers Wright Runstead have submitted an applica-tion for what could turn out to be the next big issue in Bel-levue the Spring District
Th e $15 billion development includes 36 acres of land now occupied by the Safeway distribution site It is planned to include a mixed-use of offi ce towers retail outlets and residences
Th e development is a transit-oriented project meaning it is primarily centered around the construction of East Link light-rail through Bellevue One of the centerpieces of the development a new hotel will have an entrance to a light-rail station according to planning documents submitted to the city
Th e project is slated to be built over a 15-year period in seven distinct phases According to Wright Runsteadrsquos appli-cation developers hope to begin construction on the project in the fi rst quarter of 2012 However city representatives said the review of the plan which does not involve a public hearing would likely take until the early summer Th ose interested can submit public comments about the plan to the city until Dec 22 at 5 pm
Th e new project is projected to bring nearly 37000 vehicle trips per day into the area on 124th Avenue Northeast south of Bel-Red Road including more than 3700 during peak evening time the busiest in Bellevue Road improvements to 120th Avenue Northeast and the creation of a new street - Northeast 15th16th - will help free traffi c once the new buildings come in Th ese are projects in Bellevuersquos budget
Th e issue of paying for the part of the project became an issue this election season Several candidates running for Bellevue City Council opposed impact fee breaks for the project citing Bellevuersquos tenuous budget situation
Th e project was an important item on the council in 2009 Th e body decided to rezone the area for light industrial and residential development Th e city and Wright Runstead reached a development agreement around that time Nat Levy can be reached at 425-453-4290

Marymoor Park was abuzz with the raising of the circus tent for the show Cavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horse on Dec 8
Cavalia includes acrobatics aerialists music dance and of course ndash equestrian stunts Its like Cirque du Soleil but with horses When the show opens Jan 24 itrsquos expected to have the same draw as Cirque shows gaining audience members from across the Eastside Greater Seattle and even across the region
It took less than 20 minutes for crews to raise the 10-story-foot-tall tent spanning more than 26000 square feet Unlike traditional circular circus tents the Cavalia tent is built to be big enough to allow the horses freedom to move during the show so the audience sits on one side and the show takes place on the opposite side
Kevin Brown director of King County Parks and Recreation said he was pleased that the show is fi nally coming to Redmond aft er years of discussing the possibility with Cavalias artistic director Normand Latourelle who cofounded Cirque du Soleil before breaking away 20 years
agoWhile Marymoor has hosted numerous Cirque shows
this will be the fi rst time it has housed a show by Cavalia mdash the name of Latourelles company as well as this particular performance Th e company additionally has another show called Odysseo playing in the south
Latourelle said the inspiration for a show with horses came in the early 2000s when he used a horse in a previ-ous show that simply walked across the stage People were transfi xed by that animal more than the human perform-ers
In an age where many people live in cities and are becoming increasingly removed from nature the chance to see a show with these majestic animals is special Latourelle said Th e relationship between human and horse goes back thousands of years Th roughout various cultures people rode horses for many aspects of life from travel to hunting Th is history is presented in the show
Even people who dont know horses come to this show and they are moved by what they see Latourelle said Its in their blood Its because of our ancestors

Normand Latourelle cofounded Cirque du Soleil before forming his own show lsquoCavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horsersquo which opens Jan 24 at Marymoor Park CHAD COLEMAN Bellevue Reporter
Th e Assistance League of the Eastside annual signa-ture fundraiser ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo took place on Friday Dec 9 in Kirkland Th is yearrsquos chairs were League members Kay Zatine and Susie Hino
ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo was a self-guided tour of six unique homes beautifully decorated for the holidays All proceeds from this annual event will help fund the philanthropic programs of the Assistance League of the Eastside that include Operation School Bell Assault Survivor Kits Starting Over Support and Assistance League Outreach Th ese programs provide new clothing to more than 2600 students selected by school personnel in the Lake Washington Bellevue and Northshore school districts help to restore dignity to survivors of sexual assault with clothing to replace items retained as evidence by the police and bring comfort to families seek-ing shelter from domestic violence
Each of the six homes were decorated with the seasonrsquos holiday themes and color palettes all embrac-ing the beauty of Christmas Miranda Roberts VP of communications for the Assistance League shared ldquoHouse 1 Was a twin-kling clerestory of modern living House 2 35 bins of deacutecor completed this themed house that included more than 100 Nutcrack-ers collected over the years House 3 Juxtapositioning
of contemporary and vintage Holiday collections House 4 Tastefully and elegantly decorated showcasing the view of the Lake House 5
Artful design-er deacutecor from the ceiling to fl oor with a wrap-around verandah and House 6 Heirloom decor in a classical Lake Washington
setting with over 15 deco-rated treesrdquo
My favorite decorations were in 6 the lovely wa-terfront home of Diane and Paul Birkeland Upon enter-ing your eyes were imme-diately drawn to the spiral staircase that was wrapped with garland ribbons and ornaments on the right and a small decorator tree placed
on top of the piano on the left Also two more of the many designer trees were on display By far my favorite tree was the Christopher Radko ornament tree in the living room Every room
was beautifully decorated for Christmas

Developers Wright Runstead have submitted an applica-tion for what could turn out to be the next big issue in Bel-levue the Spring District
Th e $15 billion development includes 36 acres of land now occupied by the Safeway distribution site It is planned to include a mixed-use of offi ce towers retail outlets and residences
Th e development is a transit-oriented project meaning it is primarily centered around the construction of East Link light-rail through Bellevue One of the centerpieces of the development a new hotel will have an entrance to a light-rail station according to planning documents submitted to the city
Th e project is slated to be built over a 15-year period in seven distinct phases According to Wright Runsteadrsquos appli-cation developers hope to begin construction on the project in the fi rst quarter of 2012 However city representatives said the review of the plan which does not involve a public hearing would likely take until the early summer Th ose interested can submit public comments about the plan to the city until Dec 22 at 5 pm
Th e new project is projected to bring nearly 37000 vehicle trips per day into the area on 124th Avenue Northeast south of Bel-Red Road including more than 3700 during peak evening time the busiest in Bellevue Road improvements to 120th Avenue Northeast and the creation of a new street - Northeast 15th16th - will help free traffi c once the new buildings come in Th ese are projects in Bellevuersquos budget
Th e issue of paying for the part of the project became an issue this election season Several candidates running for Bellevue City Council opposed impact fee breaks for the project citing Bellevuersquos tenuous budget situation
Th e project was an important item on the council in 2009 Th e body decided to rezone the area for light industrial and residential development Th e city and Wright Runstead reached a development agreement around that time Nat Levy can be reached at 425-453-4290

Marymoor Park was abuzz with the raising of the circus tent for the show Cavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horse on Dec 8
Cavalia includes acrobatics aerialists music dance and of course ndash equestrian stunts Its like Cirque du Soleil but with horses When the show opens Jan 24 itrsquos expected to have the same draw as Cirque shows gaining audience members from across the Eastside Greater Seattle and even across the region
It took less than 20 minutes for crews to raise the 10-story-foot-tall tent spanning more than 26000 square feet Unlike traditional circular circus tents the Cavalia tent is built to be big enough to allow the horses freedom to move during the show so the audience sits on one side and the show takes place on the opposite side
Kevin Brown director of King County Parks and Recreation said he was pleased that the show is fi nally coming to Redmond aft er years of discussing the possibility with Cavalias artistic director Normand Latourelle who cofounded Cirque du Soleil before breaking away 20 years
agoWhile Marymoor has hosted numerous Cirque shows
this will be the fi rst time it has housed a show by Cavalia mdash the name of Latourelles company as well as this particular performance Th e company additionally has another show called Odysseo playing in the south
Latourelle said the inspiration for a show with horses came in the early 2000s when he used a horse in a previ-ous show that simply walked across the stage People were transfi xed by that animal more than the human perform-ers
In an age where many people live in cities and are becoming increasingly removed from nature the chance to see a show with these majestic animals is special Latourelle said Th e relationship between human and horse goes back thousands of years Th roughout various cultures people rode horses for many aspects of life from travel to hunting Th is history is presented in the show
Even people who dont know horses come to this show and they are moved by what they see Latourelle said Its in their blood Its because of our ancestors

Where about town Irsquove been Th e opening night of Burlesque Nutcracker at Triple
Door Wowza Whoever says burlesque isnrsquot an art form has clearly never seen Lilly Verlaine a classical ballet dancer and burlesque artist
If you have not seen ldquoTh e Muppetsrdquo movie yet I as-sure you that itrsquos worthy of more than just an eventual add to the Netfl ix queue Go see it on the big screen While itrsquos not Jim Hensen and Frank Oz behind Kermit and Miss Piggy the fi lm was done with such love and clearly by people who grew up with the Muppets (like I did) Tear-jerking moments included Kermyrsquos rendition of ldquoRainbow Connectionrdquo Th e only downside to the fi lm is that Selena Gomez is in it (no off ense tweens)

alsquoCirque du Soleil with horsesrsquo headed to the Eastside
Normand Latourelle cofounded Cirque du Soleil before forming his own show lsquoCavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horsersquo which opens Jan 24 at Marymoor Park CHAD COLEMAN Bellevue Reporter
Th e Assistance League of the Eastside annual signa-ture fundraiser ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo took place on Friday Dec 9 in Kirkland Th is yearrsquos chairs were League members Kay Zatine and Susie Hino
ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo was a self-guided tour of six unique homes beautifully decorated for the holidays All proceeds from this annual event will help fund the philanthropic programs of the Assistance League of the Eastside that include Operation School Bell Assault Survivor Kits Starting Over Support and Assistance League Outreach Th ese programs provide new clothing to more than 2600 students selected by school personnel in the Lake Washington Bellevue and Northshore school districts help to restore dignity to survivors of sexual assault with clothing to replace items retained as evidence by the police and bring comfort to families seek-ing shelter from domestic violence
Each of the six homes were decorated with the seasonrsquos holiday themes and color palettes all embrac-ing the beauty of Christmas Miranda Roberts VP of communications for the Assistance League shared ldquoHouse 1 Was a twin-kling clerestory of modern living House 2 35 bins of deacutecor completed this themed house that included more than 100 Nutcrack-ers collected over the years House 3 Juxtapositioning
of contemporary and vintage Holiday collections House 4 Tastefully and elegantly decorated showcasing the view of the Lake House 5
Artful design-er deacutecor from the ceiling to fl oor with a wrap-around verandah and House 6 Heirloom decor in a classical Lake Washington
setting with over 15 deco-rated treesrdquo
My favorite decorations were in 6 the lovely wa-terfront home of Diane and Paul Birkeland Upon enter-ing your eyes were imme-diately drawn to the spiral staircase that was wrapped with garland ribbons and ornaments on the right and a small decorator tree placed
on top of the piano on the left Also two more of the many designer trees were on display By far my favorite tree was the Christopher Radko ornament tree in the living room Every room
was beautifully decorated for Christmas

Marymoor Park was abuzz with the raising of the circus tent for the show Cavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horse on Dec 8
Cavalia includes acrobatics aerialists music dance and of course ndash equestrian stunts Its like Cirque du Soleil but with horses When the show opens Jan 24 itrsquos expected to have the same draw as Cirque shows gaining audience members from across the Eastside Greater Seattle and even across the region
It took less than 20 minutes for crews to raise the 10-story-foot-tall tent spanning more than 26000 square feet Unlike traditional circular circus tents the Cavalia tent is built to be big enough to allow the horses freedom to move during the show so the audience sits on one side and the show takes place on the opposite side
Kevin Brown director of King County Parks and Recreation said he was pleased that the show is fi nally coming to Redmond aft er years of discussing the possibility with Cavalias artistic director Normand Latourelle who cofounded Cirque du Soleil before breaking away 20 years
agoWhile Marymoor has hosted numerous Cirque shows
this will be the fi rst time it has housed a show by Cavalia mdash the name of Latourelles company as well as this particular performance Th e company additionally has another show called Odysseo playing in the south
Latourelle said the inspiration for a show with horses came in the early 2000s when he used a horse in a previ-ous show that simply walked across the stage People were transfi xed by that animal more than the human perform-ers
In an age where many people live in cities and are becoming increasingly removed from nature the chance to see a show with these majestic animals is special Latourelle said Th e relationship between human and horse goes back thousands of years Th roughout various cultures people rode horses for many aspects of life from travel to hunting Th is history is presented in the show
Even people who dont know horses come to this show and they are moved by what they see Latourelle said Its in their blood Its because of our ancestors

Where about town Irsquove been Th e opening night of Burlesque Nutcracker at Triple
Door Wowza Whoever says burlesque isnrsquot an art form has clearly never seen Lilly Verlaine a classical ballet dancer and burlesque artist
If you have not seen ldquoTh e Muppetsrdquo movie yet I as-sure you that itrsquos worthy of more than just an eventual add to the Netfl ix queue Go see it on the big screen While itrsquos not Jim Hensen and Frank Oz behind Kermit and Miss Piggy the fi lm was done with such love and clearly by people who grew up with the Muppets (like I did) Tear-jerking moments included Kermyrsquos rendition of ldquoRainbow Connectionrdquo Th e only downside to the fi lm is that Selena Gomez is in it (no off ense tweens)

alsquoCirque du Soleil with horsesrsquo headed to the Eastside
Normand Latourelle cofounded Cirque du Soleil before forming his own show lsquoCavalia A Magical Encounter Between Human and Horsersquo which opens Jan 24 at Marymoor Park CHAD COLEMAN Bellevue Reporter
Th e Assistance League of the Eastside annual signa-ture fundraiser ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo took place on Friday Dec 9 in Kirkland Th is yearrsquos chairs were League members Kay Zatine and Susie Hino
ldquoCelebra-tionsrdquo was a self-guided tour of six unique homes beautifully decorated for the holidays All proceeds from this annual event will help fund the philanthropic programs of the Assistance League of the Eastside that include Operation School Bell Assault Survivor Kits Starting Over Support and Assistance League Outreach Th ese programs provide new clothing to more than 2600 students selected by school personnel in the Lake Washington Bellevue and Northshore school districts help to restore dignity to survivors of sexual assault with clothing to replace items retained as evidence by the police and bring comfort to families seek-ing shelter from domestic violence
Each of the six homes were decorated with the seasonrsquos holiday themes and color palettes all embrac-ing the beauty of Christmas Miranda Roberts VP of communications for the Assistance League shared ldquoHouse 1 Was a twin-kling clerestory of modern living House 2 35 bins of deacutecor completed this themed house that included more than 100 Nutcrack-ers collected over the years House 3 Juxtapositioning
of contemporary and vintage Holiday collections House 4 Tastefully and elegantly decorated showcasing the view of the Lake House 5
Artful design-er deacutecor from the ceiling to fl oor with a wrap-around verandah and House 6 Heirloom decor in a classical Lake Washington
setting with over 15 deco-rated treesrdquo
My favorite decorations were in 6 the lovely wa-terfront home of Diane and Paul Birkeland Upon enter-ing your eyes were imme-diately drawn to the spiral staircase that was wrapped with garland ribbons and ornaments on the right and a small decorator tree placed
on top of the piano on the left Also two more of the many designer trees were on display By far my favorite tree was the Christopher Radko ornament tree in the living room Every room
was beautifully decorated for Christmas
