� ree days into the 2012 Farnborough Airshow outside London, the Boeing Co. sold billions of dollars worth of Renton-built 737s.
And on Tuesday the 737 program gen-eral manager announced more progress on the design of the 737 MAX that signi� -cantly extends the plane’s range.
“We continue to make steady prog-ress toward our development goals,” said Beverly Wyse, vice president and general manager of the 737 program. “We are able to � rm up our maximum takeo� weight projections, which allow us to con� rm that the 737 MAX will � y farther and o� er more revenue potential than its predeces-
sor and its future competitor.”� e 737 MAX will extend the Next-
Generation 737 range advantage. � e 737
MAX models will have the capability to � y more than 3,500 nautical miles, an increase of 400 – 540 nautical miles over the Next-Generation 737, according to the company.
Gov. Chris Gregoire also was at Farn-borough for part of the week, meeting with aerospace companies, including Airbus, about the advantages of doing business in Washington state.
“Aerospace continues to be a bright spot in our economic recovery,” Gregoire said in a press release. “And I want to ensure this critical industry succeeds and grows here long a� er my time in the governor’s o� ce.”
She said she was pleased with the discus-sions she had with more than 50 aerospace

EDITOR’S NOTE: Today the Renton Reporter begins a series of articles on the Aug. 7 vote to decide the location of a new downtown library. Today’s article is designed to bring everyone up to speed on the issue. � ere is a timeline on page 7.
BY TRACEY COMPTON
An issue once thought settled is now before Renton voters again: the location of a downtown library.
To say the least, this matter has struck a chord and divided the community.
� e idea of relocating the downtown library from its scenic perch over the Cedar River is unimaginable to some who’ve voiced their opinions at City Hall or signed their support on an initiative to stop the move to the Piazza.
Conversely, it has been touted by some City of Renton o� cials and business owners as a way to revitalize the business district and
heart of the city.Looking at the timeline of
events inside today’s Renton Reporter it may appear jarring as to how the city wound up here, with an Aug. 7 election vote to determine the site of the down-town library.
� is is a� er the City Council had already put into motion plans to relocate the downtown library to a site west of the Piazza.
A� er all, in 2008 a Renton Li-brary Master Plan recommended that Renton’s library system stay independent, while still uphold-
ing a borrowing agreement with KCLS.
Contrast that to February 2010, when the city held an election for voters to decide whether the city should annex to KCLS and turn over their beloved libraries to the system.
What perpetuated the change in direction?
� e answer, in summary, was that the library issue had reached a crossroad where Renton resi-dents had to decide between an-nexing to KCLS or passing a levy to upgrade its library services.
� e city of Renton could no longer a� ord its libraries.
� e vote was close – just a 53-vote di� erence – and ultimately Renton annexed into KCLS.
� at move attracted attention later as critics said it was not clear that KCLS would build new libraries, at Renton’s expense, for the Highlands and downtown branches.
As the City Council voted to issue $18 million bonds to pay
The library’s long road to a voteFYI
Proposition 1 on Aug. 7 ballot
Renton residents will decide on Aug. 7 where to locate the downtown Renton library.
The choices are the existing library over the Cedar River or a new one at the Piazza in downtown Renton.

A 27-year-old Renton man has been charged with vehicular assault for alleg-edly hitting and critically injuring a Renton woman who was walking or jogging on Lake Washington Boule-vard Saturday morning.
Bail was set at $50,000 Monday for Garrett A.
Bakken in his initial court appearance. He will be arraigned at 9 a.m. July 26 in courtroom GA at the Maleng Regional Justice Center in Kent.
In charging Bakken, King County Prosecutor Dan Satterberg wrote that Bakken was driving his car
while under the influence of intoxicating liquor or drugs.
Bakken lives in the 1000 block of Lake Washington Boulevard, not far from where 54-year-old Rosalind M. Hall was hit at about 8:45 a.m.
According to court docu-ments, Bakken was south-bound on Lake Washington Boulevard when his 2003 Hyundai Sante Fe drifted
off the roadway, struck a guardrail and a street sign. He continued south at about 35 mph, striking Hall as she was northbound in a pedestrian pathway.
A witness told investiga-tors that Hall was thrown 30 to 40 feet in the air, about 20 feet down an embankment.
She suffered numerous broken bones and cuts and bruises. She was in the
intensive-care unit in seri-ous condition mid-week at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle.
Bakken drove off but returned about five minutes later, according to docu-ments. He told officers that he must have fallen asleep. A half full bottle single-malt scotch whiskey fell out of his car when an officer opened the passenger-side door.
He initially told officers he hadn’t been drinking, but later admitted he had. His blood-alcohol level was .157, about double the state’s legal limit.
Hall’s family gave Paul and Wendy Goff permis-sion to set up the online campaign to raise $2,500 to help Hall. The address is http://www.indiegogo.com/help-roz.

Renate Beedon filed a complaint Tuesday with the Washington Public Disclosure Commission against the King County Library System, claiming the library system over-stepped its bounds by mailing a letter about the upcoming Aug. 7 library vote.
The Public Disclosure Commis-sion has received two similar com-plaints about this issue, said Lori Anderson, a PDC spokeswoman.
“We are in the process of decid-ing whether to investigate,” she said, which will take a week to two weeks.
“Public agencies can inform their constituents about ballot measures, but it has to be done in a balanced way without supporting or oppos-ing the measure,” she said.
Beedon and her husband Dave became upset after talking with some friends and neighbors about a letter they received from KCLS about Proposition 1 that asks voters to decide where a new downtown library should be located.
“She and I both feel that he (Bill Ptacek, KCLS director) has no busi-ness telling Renton voters about
this in advance of an election,” said Dave Beedon.
Both of the Beedons felt the letter was an unfair attempt by KCLS to influence voters into choosing the site west of the Piazza for the new downtown library.
The letter sent out by KCLS gave background information on the downtown Renton library renova-tion and ballot measure to select a site location.
In it, KCLS defines the interlocal agreement between KCLS and the City of Renton.
It informs readers that the City of Renton has already spent nearly $1 million on the property acquisition and design since selecting the site west of the Piazza.
The letter goes on to detail why it is more expensive, and more complicated to build the library at the site over the Cedar River.
“The letter from KCLS in my opinion was wrongfully paid by public money,” said Renate Beedon.
The letter went to about 43,000 households in Renton and cost $6,800 total for mail preparation and postage.
KCLS gives letter recipients a summary of the situation stating, “Site selection and construction
costs remain the responsibil-ity of the City of Renton,” wrote Bill Ptacek, KCLS director. “We understand that the increased cost for construction at the site over the Cedar River is in excess of the City’s budgeted amount.”
Julie Brand, a KCLS spokes-person, Julie Brand maintains the system has not “taken a position on the ballot measure and has only distributed information that is rel-evant to building a library to KCLS standards.”
The letter was reviewed by KCLS’ attorneys to ensure compliance with Public Disclosure Commis-sion guidelines, according to Brand.
Brand quotes Public Disclosure guidelines to say “It is not only the right, but the responsibility of local government to inform the general public of the operational and main-tenance issues facing issues. This includes informing the community of the needs of the agency that the community may not realize exist. Local governments may expend funds for this purpose provided that the preparation and distribu-tion of information is not for the purpose of influencing the outcome of an election.”
She uses that explanation in
an email to say that it is KCLS’s responsibility to distribute factual information that is relevant to the operation of the library system.
Dave Beedon called the letter “at least in poor taste, a waste of money and maybe even illegal.”
He found it interesting that Pta-cek mentioned the costs involved in renovating the downtown library considering the fact that he is a government employee and, in Dave’s opinion, shouldn’t be concerned with how much it would cost to renovate the library at its current location.
Rosemary Quesenberry of Renton also received the letter and decided to file a complaint with the Public Disclosure Commission on Tuesday.
“I feel that as strapped as the budget is, this probably isn’t the best way to spend our dollars,” she said.
Quesenberry found fault in KCLS hiring Miller-Hull Archi-tects, the firm already working on the project, to do an “in-depth investigation of potential construc-tion scheduling and cost consider-ations,” the letter reads.Tracey Compton can be reached at 425-255-3484.

A 21-year-old Renton man was charged Tuesday with second-degree murder and first-degree assault after a shootout left one man dead outside a Federal Way bar.
Kenneth M. Sutton Jr. is accused of killing Kent resident Cloise Young, 23, at Johnny’s Famous Bar and
Grill in a June 27 gunfight that left six others shot.
Sutton is being held in jail without bail. Most of the victims were bystanders who were not involved in any confrontation during the chaotic scene.
Each charge against Sutton includes a firearm sentencing enhancement. If convicted as charged, the sentence range is 30 to 40 years in prison, according
to the King County Pros-ecutor’s Office.
Arraignment is sched-uled for July 23 at the Regional Justice Center in Kent.
According to prosecuter’s office documents, Sutton allegedly instigated an argument by claiming gang affiliation and yelling about being “Rolling 90s.”
Many of the people involved have prior gang histories, according to the Federal Way Police Chief Brian Wilson.
According to one wit-ness, before Sutton began shooting, Young showed a holstered gun to Sutton after the bar closed at 2 a.m. and told him that he doesn’t “bang.” Young had a concealed weapons permit and appeared to be lawfully armed, according to police.
“Shots were exchanged,” Wilson said last week. “We
don’t believe the victim fired his weapon. We be-lieve someone else fired his weapon.”
When police arrived, Young was found with an empty gun holster attached to his pants, but no firearm was recovered from the scene, documents said. A witness claimed to have seen a Mexican male stand-ing over Young after he was shot, trying to remove his watch and going through his pockets. The witness stated that the man did not know Young.
Following the shoot-ing, Sutton fled the scene, according to documents. He and another individual showed up at the Valley Medical Center in Renton seeking treatment for wounds three hours later. That’s where Sutton was arrested and booked into King County Jail.

tion was compiled based on City of Renton police reports.

Police responded to a bloodied and beat-up man on June 27.
The 35-year-old Kelso man was found uncon-scious but breathing with partially dried blood all over his face.
He was found in a ditch next to the roadway in the 205 block of South Third Street around 1 p.m.
When asked what hap-pened, the man told police he got “lumped” by gang members.
Police stated they be-lieved he had been kicked and punched repeatedly, appeared to be homeless and was extremely intoxi-cated.
The man was transported to Valley Medical Center for treatment.
Woman reports unwanted attention
A Renton woman re-ceived unwanted attention from a Kent man while on her way home June 27.
The incident happened sometime before 10:20 a.m.in the 9700 block of Southeast 20th Street.
The 21-year-old woman missed her bus ride home. A 19-year-old stranger followed her on and off buses as she walked home. He tried holding her hand and putting his arm around her. The woman eventually called police and the man was arrested and jailed. He was later released because his actions weren’t consid-ered harassment.

What’s the best site for the library? The one over the Cedar River
Regardless if the library moves or not, taxpay-ers will pay for refurbishing the building over the Cedar River. Note the allotted $20 Million total budget in the Big 5 expenditure statement (http://scr.bi/HeMUmI). Cost will be more or less a wash. So the question depends not on will the move save money or not, or develop business downtown, or appease KCLS. The voting ques-tion remains: Which location do voters believe best suited for a library? Cedar River or the Piazza?
For me, it makes better sense for a learning environment to overlap with parks and play especially for youth, families, and senior adults. The only caveat being voter choice (1) and ques-tions of access (2).
Now that voters can finally contribute their two cents thanks to the petition group, I encour-age full disclosure on part of the city, including a response to KCLS spending tax dollars to fund a campaign mailer. On KCLS I recommend mak-ing positions elected instead of appointed. That agency lacks oversight. As for the city, I appreci-ate and will vote for city officials who respect voter choice and be transparent in how they opt to influence either campaign.

Key question: Can we trust city officials to repurpose existing downtown library?
We recently received a letter from the King County Library System (KCLS) regarding the Cedar River ballot measure, Proposition 1, that the citizens of Renton will be voting on come August 7th.
First, I confess, I do not trust anything from King County; my experience has been that the county executives are more self-serving than community serving. Consequently, I find myself wondering why the KCLS is getting involved in a city matter, other than their opposition of the proposed renovation of a unique building that is an integral part of the historic Renton Down-town.
I also confess, that until I received the KCLS letter and did some research, I did not know the source of the Cedar River Library ballot proposal. Thanks to www.rentonreporter.com, I am now aware that the proposal is the work of a group of Renton citizens who oppose the City of Renton’s plan to repurpose the Cedar River Library building to serve as an environmental interpretive center.
Proposition 1 appears on the surface to be about whether we want to preserve an historic
building as a library in the presence of a flowing body of water and the inherent risk of flood-ing, or do we want a brand new building in the Piazza, that presumably also stands in an historic floodplain, at less expense and greater conve-nience.
According to KCLS and their Miller-Hull study, the cost for the Cedar River Library build-ing renovation will be approximately one-third greater than the estimates of the City of Renton. Again, having experienced opposing estimates, I do not necessarily trust King County. The KCLS also “promises” that the permitting process will be much more challenging than expected by the City of Renton.
The real question before the citizens of Renton appears to be: do we as its citizens trust the city executives to ensure that the proposed repur-posing of the Cedar River library building to an environmental intrepretive center will be and remain a viable educational resource that is lively and active for our children and future citizens. The unique siting of the Cedar River library should not be wasted. If the proposed environ-mental interpretive center is little more than a warehousing of an elderly, inconvenient relative, then I would oppose the city’s plans and vote for retaining the Cedar River library and accept the risk of the increased expense. The grand old lady deserves nothing less.
Michael and Vicki StearnsRenton
Let’s not destroy the best thing ever in the city, the library over the river
I was quite taken aback with the two Letters to the Editor that appeared in the June 29, 2012, Renton Reporter – amazed with some of the statements that completely overlooked the truth of the positive aspects of our present Cedar River library location. In Mr. Dineen’s letter, he states
that the “new” site (west of the Piazza) would have better parking than our present Cedar River location. Huh? I wonder if Mr. Dineen has gone down and counted the parking spaces at our present library site, as I have. If he had, he would have found 65 parking spaces right next to our present library. Besides these spaces, there’s overflow parking available immediately next door to our library in front of the former Renton City Hall. You can’t beat this convenience no matter how anyone wants to spin the facts. I can’t think of a mother or other child-concerned person wanting to park in the parking garage, if need be, and walking their children two or three blocks to go to the library, when all they have to do, is park next to our current library and walk the short distance to enter the library.
Our remodeled library over the Cedar River WILL BE a state-of-the-art edifice and we all will delight in the new updated version of our pres-ent library, when it is completed, and code-com-pliant. It will be worth the wait to save this most wonderful site for our library. Not many people know that the C-span media bus visited Renton in April 2011 – and parked in the parking lot at our Cedar River Library-Renton specifically chosen BECAUSE we have this “only one in the country” library built over a river. Now that’s an accolade for our city that no other can claim.
Finally, we who desire the Cedar River Library for the location of our new library, DO want the downtown business core to prosper and thrive. But, giving up the best location for our library is not the way to do it. An arts center has been suggested for the old Big Five site--the creative energy that such an entity would bring to the downtown, would definitely be a draw for people to come to the downtown core, and enjoy some-thing extraordinary and stimulating for Renton-ites. But let’s not destroy the best thing we ever had – this gem of the Cedar River Library.

The study examined the exist-ing location, the Pavilion building site, the Big 5/Roxy theater building and the former McLendon Hardware site for a downtown library. The Highlands branch study examined the Sunset Terrace site, Sunset and Harrington site, Dalpay site, and the Ribera site.
July - Sept. 2010: City of Renton staff and consultants evaluate sites.
Oct. - Nov. 2010: City Council re-ceives two briefings in executive session on potential property acquisition.

June 13, 2011: Big 5 property purchase scheduled to close.

the City of Renton to fund the site acquisition, design, construction and other related costs for both the High-lands and downtown library facilities.
July 5, 2011: City seeks residents interested in participating in a Liberty Park Library Building Steering Commit-tee to determine the new use for the downtown library.
September 2011: The grassroots effort begins to organize to save the library over the Cedar River. A group calling itself Citizens for the Preserva-tion of the Cedar River Library begins to gather signatures for an initiative to stop the move to the Piazza, the former Big 5 site.

March 2012: City Attorney Larry Warren issues a memo to Mayor Denis Law and City Council members where he “opined that the library initiative would require an unconstitutional impairment of the contract with KCLS, and an improper collateral attack on the February annexation election.”

for construction of the Highlands and downtown libraries, opposition mounted.
Each council meeting on the downtown library was increasingly filled with those for and against the relocation of the library over the Cedar River.
The grassroots effort, called the Citizens for the Preservation of the Cedar River Library, came to a head when it started collecting signa-tures for a ballot measure to halt the process.
Ultimately, the initiative was
validated but not adopted by City Council; but the group’s efforts were rewarded when the council took another look at the issue.
Explaining that the public should have a say in where the downtown library is located, the City Council voted unanimously to put the site selection on the Aug. 7 election ballot.
In the meantime, the City of Renton has invested $1 million on property acquisition and design work since selecting the site west of the Piazza.
KCLS has not stopped work to design the new library at the Piazza.
Grassroots effort collected namesto put library location on ballot [ library from page 1]
The Metropolitan King County Council this week appointed former state Sen. Dino Rossi to the vacant Washington State Senate seat in the Fifth Legislative Dis-trict, which includes a part of east Renton.
The vacancy came after the resignation of Sen. Cheryl Pflug.
“There is no better friend or representative to the con-stituents of the 5th Legislative District than Dino Rossi,” said council member Reagan Dunn. “Dino has the experi-ence having served in the Sen-ate previously and will ensure
the interests of the 5th district are well served through No-vember.”
Per the State Constitution, precinct commit-tee officers nominate and submit three names to the Council in the event of a vacancy. The Re-
publican precinct committee officers of the 5th District submitted Rossi’s name as the preferred candidate, along
with the names of Robert Brunjes, Sr. and Kathryn Kalunzy. Council members in-terviewed all three candidates at Monday’s meeting of the Committee of the Whole.
Rossi served in the Wash-ington State Senate from 1997 to 2003. He ran for governor in 2004 and 2008 and the U.S. Senate in 2010.
Rossi will serve in a care-taker capacity, serving during the interim and until the No-vember general election. Once the election is certified by the state, the candidate elected by the voters will take Rossi’s place in the Senate

By ADAM MCFADDEN
Thousands flocked to Gene Coulon Park for Renton's Fourth of July celebration.
For West Seattle's Estela Cayetenno, it was her first time to Coulon for the Fourth.
"My whole Bible study group came and we're hop-ing to have a lot of fun," Cayetenno said.
She was one of many cooking lunch on a barbecue around the park. Others
enjoyed a game of catch or volleyball, while others just laid back and soaked in the sun.
Police and fire officials estimate the attendance at more than 20,000.
"It was remarkable how many people came to the park to celebrate their Independence Day, and in essence, started their sum-mer season with us," said Sonja Mejlaender, the City of Renton's special events coordinator.
The weather was warm
enough for kids to play in the lake, although there were quite a few options for them including a bouncy house, obstacle course and slide. Plus there was face painting from the Lindbergh High School cheerleaders.
No fireworks-related injuries were reported and no major fire losses occurred in Renton during the July
4 holiday, with the excep-tion of one fireworks related fire that occurred on July 6 and resulted in damage to a detached garage, according to City of Renton officials.
Fire inspectors investigat-ed 87 fireworks complaints and made 47 contacts during the Independence Day holiday, issued a number of monetary citations, and confiscated over 50 pounds of illegal fireworks that have been delivered to the Wash-ington State Patrol Bomb Squad for destruction.
Safe, fun Fourth for Renton

The Return to Renton Benefit Car Show expects to raise between $16,000 and $17,000 for Renton Police Department youth programs this year.
“It went extremely well,” said organizer Jim Medzegian. “It was just fantastic.”
Under warm sunny skies, a huge crowd of more than 4,000 spectators checked out the hot vehicles at the show Sunday at the Piazza.
The show had 480 vehicles on display, about double the number from last near. Medzegian said they had expected around
380 cars, and while the extra attendance made parking a challenge, it was a good challenge to have.
He extended thanks to the show’s 75 volunteers, the City of Renton and Mayor Denis Law.
Final totals are still being tallied, but Medzegian estimated the show would hand over several thousand dollars more to the youth programs than last year’s show did.
The list of winners at the show are on page 13.
Hot cars, good cause at Piazza

The garage door whooshed open and
my kids and I were greeted on the other side by Lori Church-Pursley and her adorable “half-golden-lab-half-polar-bear” Jake.
Lori’s daughter, 3-year-old Rose, walked up to me and sheepishly handed me a stuffed dog toy.
“Thank you, Rose.” I said.Lori’s garage in the Cascade area of Renton looks like any
other family garage: toys, clothing bins, canned goods . . . except Lori’s garage is very special.
Back in April Lori and her husband opened a new South King County branch of Sibling House out of their garage in Renton.
Located in Kirkland, Sibling House is a 15-year-old non-profit program that provides items of need to foster families willing to take sibling groups.
Although the garage was filled with toys for local foster kids, Ty, Patrick and Rose started scooping and running their hands inside a deep plastic bin containing red lentils – a simple toy Lori created for her kids to play with.
“Why did you start Sibling House?” I asked.Back in January Lori and her husband fostered their first
foster kids — two sisters, from January until April. I will refer to them as C and D.
Ten-year-old C and her 2-year-old sister D arrived on Lori’s doorstep with the clothes on their backs and one pair of ill fitting pajamas in the middle of the night.
“The girls’ mother had told them not to pack anything because the state will pay for everything.” Lori explained. “At first we thought our kids could share clothes because the state
doesn’t reimburse for expenses until after the first month. My 10-year-old son has a lot of sweat pants and Rose was 3.”
I thought that was a sensible idea. Both Lori and her hus-band work for non-profit organizations. “It doesn’t pay very well but we know we’re doing good.”
However, C was a size 16 and D was wearing 5T so they each needed a set of clothes.
“And both the girls had issues surrounding food. The very small reimbursement rate provided by the state doesn’t even begin to cover the basic expenses of food and shelter, let alone provide funds for clothing, books, toys, and enrichment activi-ties.”
On a limited budget themselves and with very little financial help from the state, the Purs-ley’s felt overwhelmed.
Lori and her husband turned to Lynne and Michael Gaskill, found-ers of the Sibling House in Kirkland.
“Lynn and Michael provided us with bunk beds, clothing, and diapers.”
After Lori’s family fostered C and D for four months the state located a second cousin willing to take the girls.
“Having them and letting them go was the hardest thing I’ve ever done. Emotionally and financially.”
That experience was the catalyst for the Pursleys to clean out their garage and start a Sibling House Branch in Renton to help other families willing to take siblings instead of splin-tering families in the foster care system.
“There are a lot of foster homes in Tukwila, Renton and Kent. The 98058 area code in Renton is in the top three areas
in this entire region for the largest number of kids removed from homes due to neglect.
Through our efforts with this new Sibling House branch in Renton we can provide clothing, food, toys, books and per-sonal care items. The main site in Kirkland has all this plus furniture.”
“What happened to the girls?” my 12-year-old daughter Sophie asked?
“Foster parents are not supposed to see parents. But we were told to take the girls to the DSHS office in Kent. The girl’s mother was there with the second cousin who would foster the girls somewhere over on the Peninsula. It was heartbreaking; C and D didn’t want to go with them.”
The Pursley’s kept in contact with the mother for a while to receive information as to how the girls were doing. But eventually due to a strained relationship lost contact.
“Where does this drive to help people come from?” I asked. “Were you ever in foster care?”
“My parents were the type of people who would give you the shirt of their backs. They were leaders in the community. I often wonder why I am so drawn to helping people. I guess I’m just touched by how so many kids are growing up in such cruddy circumstances,” Lori said.
It was quiet when we got into the car.“That story with those girls was so sad.” Sophie said.“Yes. It is. But we’re going to help collect donations for
them and that is something we can do right now to help,” I said.
The Pursley’s branch of Sibling House opened this past April. They are actively seeking donations. They can be reached by email at [email protected]
My daughter Sophie’s Girl Scout troop will be collecting donations for Sibling House at the Renton Farmers Market this Tuesday, July 17, from 3-7 p.m.
The troop will also be passing out a healthy snack recipe cookbooks for kids printed by PIP Printing in downtown Renton. So stop by make a donation and enjoy a healthy snack made by local girl scouts!
If you know of people or places in Renton that surprise, delight and inspire the community, drop me a line at [email protected].

Another Olympic Trials, another Olympic berth for Renton native Aretha Thurmond.
Thurmond qualified for her fourth Olympic games by taking second at the Olympic Trials June 24.
“After it was over I felt a little more relieved because this is the world’s hardest team to make,” Thurmond said. “You want to spend the whole year training for the Olympics, but you have to get through the Trials first.”
Her throw of 62.23 meters at the trials was short only of Stephanie Brown Trafton’s 65.18 meters. Brown Trafton won the gold medal in Beijing four years ago.
“It was good, nice and consistent,” she said. “We had a game plan going in and it was just about going out and executing the technique. This wasn’t my first time.”
Even after qualifying for her fourth games, Thurmond isn’t able to sit back and enjoy the moment. There’s still work to be done.
“I don’t think it’s really sunk in yet only be-cause I’m still in work mode,” she said. “I need to stay hungry and keep training. I’ll have time to celebrate the Trials after the Olympics.”
Thurmond attended Renton High School and won state discus titles in 1992, 1993 and 1994. She also won a shot put title in 1994. She still holds the state meet record in discus. She went on to attend the University of Washington, where she was a four-time All-American, and two-time Pac-10 champion. She set the Ameri-can Collegiate discus record of 215 feet, three inches in 1998.
Thurmond is the 16th U.S. woman to make four Olympics in track and field. She made the
games in 1996, 2004 and 2008. She missed the Sydney games in 2000 by one spot.
She won gold medals at the Pan American Games in 1999 and 2003. Thurmond’s best finish at an Olympics is 19th, in 2004.
Thurmond will turn 36 less than two weeks af-ter the Olympics, but she hasn’t made any plans for London to be her last go around.
“As long as I can stay competitive, I’ll keep throwing,” she said. “Right now, I’m competi-tive. I’m not going to put a clock on myself. After the first team, I didn’t know if there would be a
second team. I’m just very blessed and fortunate to be going to a fourth Olympics.”
Thurmond lives in Auburn, Ala., where she trains full time. She still stays in contact with her friends and family in the Northwest, calling them her “extended family.” Keith Eager, her coach at Renton High, and his wife made the trip to Oregon to watch Thurmond qualify at the Olympic Trials.
The qualifying round of the women’s discus throw is Aug. 3 at 11:10 a.m. Pacific Standard Time. The final round is Aug. 4 at 11:30 a.m.

company executives, saying she’s confident “they will lead to future job growth in our state.”
Here are four of the major deals as of mid-week at Farnborough, totaling about $20 billion:
• Avolon, an Ireland-based leasing company, will buy 10 737 MAX 8s and 5 737 MAX 9s, as well as 10
Next-Generation 737-800s, at a list price of 2.3 billion. The deal, yet to be signed, includes reconfirmation rights for 5 more 737 MAX airplanes.
• The Kuwait airplane leasing company ALAFCO ordered 20 Boeing 737 MAX 8s valued at $1.9 bil-lion at list prices.
“This is the first com-mitment for the 737 MAX from the Middle East which is one of the aviation industry’s highest growth regions,” said Ray Conner, newly named president and CEO of Boeing Commer-cial Airplanes, in a Boeing press release.
• GE Capital Aviation Services, the commercial aircraft leasing and financ-ing arm of General Electric,
has committed to purchase 75 737 MAX 8s and 25 Next-Generation 737-800s.
At list prices the deal is worth about $9 billion. Boeing is working with the company to finalize the order.
“The 737 MAX is a perfect complement to our airplane portfolio,” said Norman C.T. Liu, president and CEO of the leas-ing company in a Boeing press release. “These new Next-Generation 737 and 737 MAX airplanes will continue our long-standing strategy of providing our customers the most fuel efficient, most capable airplanes with the lowest operating costs.”
• Air Lease Corporation announced a firm order
for 60 737 MAX 8 and 15 737 MAX 9 airplanes, with reconfirmation rights for 25 additional 737 MAXs. The order, with a list-price value of $7.2 billion, represents the first 737 MAX order by a leasing company, accord-ing to Boeing.
“The 737 MAX is an ex-cellent addition to our port-folio and the ideal comple-ment to our growing fleet of Next-Generation 737-800s,” said Steven Udvar-Hazy, chairman and CEO of Air Lease Corporation, in a Boeing press release. “The 737 MAX represents a step-change improvement that our airline clients need to compete in the future.”
The 737 MAX is a new-engine variant of the world’s best-selling airplane and builds on the strengths
of today’s Next-Generation 737, according to Boeing.
To date, the 737 MAX has orders and commit-ments for more than 1,000 airplanes and the Next-Generation 737 family has won orders for more than 6,600 airplanes.
On Monday, Conner laid out his goals during the opening day of the air show, saying the com-pany is hitting its stride on performance and making significant progress on new airplane programs.
The Boeing backlog stands at more than 4,000 airplanes. In addition, Boe-ing’s 2012 Current Market Outlook forecasts a market for 34,000 airplanes worth $4.5 trillion over the next 20 years, according to a company press release.
