Attendance figures were down slightly from last year at the Seattle International Film Festival venue in Renton, but the famed festival is committed to returning next year.
“With the support of the Renton com-munity, we are committed to providing opportunities to bring people together to
discover extraordinary films from around the world,” said Carl Spence, the festival’s artistic director.
This was the second year for the festival in Renton, kicked off by a gala May 18 at the Renton Pavilion Event Center and the screening of “Fat Kid Rules the World,” partly filmed in Renton.
“We were really pleased with the out-standing gala and the way the community shined,” said Suzanne Dale Estey, the City
of Renton’s economic development director.But she was “kind of perplexed” by a
drop in attendance at the film screenings at the IKEA Performing Arts Center at Renton High School.
About 1,700 tickets were sold for the screenings, down from about 2,100 last year, she said.
Much was done to market the festival in Renton, she said, but the difficulty was get-ting the word out about the “great movies”
being shown after the gala.SIFF has experience launching venues,
including outside Seattle in Kirkland and Everett, and in Seattle, too.
The ticket sales at the Renton and Everett venues are “about the same,” Spence said. Kirkland’s sales are higher, but he pointed out that SIFF has been on the Eastside in Kirkland and Bellevue since 2006.

The pools have been vacuumed, shade umbrellas replaced, the deck has been pressure washed and the chlorine is functioning at optimal levels.
Yes, the Henry Moses Aquatic Center will be open for the season starting Saturday and with a chance of showers in the weekend forecast, it could be a slow start to an expected busy season.
In the previous weeks, Dave Perkins and his small crew have been preparing the center for the hordes of people who will visit it this summer.
He is the recreation coordinator who manages the center for the City of Renton.
Perkins, Stephanie Dyane, the life-guard manager, and a facilities crew are in charge of keeping the aquatics center in tip-top shape.
Here are some things you may not realize about the Henry Moses Aquatic Center.
The activity pool holds 183,947 gallons of water and the lap pool 138,886 gallons.
It takes at least 10 hours to vacuum each pool.
The pools go through about 100 pounds of chlorine a day to maintain
proper sanitation levels when activity is at its busiest.
By contrast, when no one is using the pools and the water is colder,
they use three to four pounds of chlorine a day.
Both pools are kept at about 84
Everything’s ship-shape at pool
It takes at least 10 hours to vacuum each of the pools at the Henry moses Aquatic Center. TRACEy CompTon, Renton Reporter

“Mommy, why are you smil-ing?” Patrick asked, sitting patiently in the grocery cart.
“Well, I was just thinking about a memory,” I said, jiggling the glass jar like a snow globe, watch-ing the aromatics float and skid about the jar. Different packaging than I remembered . . . but the same slivered garlic cloves, the same cool beans.
Like looking into a crystal ball suddenly I was transported back in time. I saw myself standing at the bar at the fine-dining restau-rant perched at the edge of the sea where I used to work when I
was in college. The doors and windows were open and the place was crowded with people, live acoustic mu-sic, the clink-ing glasses, the
hustle and bustle as I leaned into the bar waiting for the drinks my guests had ordered.
There was a jar of the those beans just like the ones in the gourmet market . . . briny, salty, spicy, garlic floated around on the bottom, red chili flakes and coriander balls. The other drink garnishments were open for our fingers to slip into. A Mai Tai was garnished with a fresh cut pine-apple skewered with a maraschino cherry.
But the Bloody Mary I was waiting on required one of those pickled green beans and only the bartender was allowed to garnish that drink because of how ex-pensive the specialty beans were. They would wriggle their fingers into the mason jar and pull out
those beans. Plunging them into the Bloody Mary and then the rest of us got to spear the green olives and lime squeeze.
Boy I wanted to try one of those beans.
As a broke college student, ev-ery tip was accounted for — there was no room for drinks garnished with gourmet beans. The pickled jar of string beans reminded me of how I used to observe other people at the restaurant, the peo-ple who could afford the beans.
It felt a little like a kid with her nose and fingers pressed up against a toy shop window, dreaming of the day when she would get to play and eat pickled string beans too.
But the beans reminded me of something even more powerful – the elation I felt at the end of the
night when once again I was able to pay my rent and go to the Uni-versity of Washington, making my way on my own and finding that though it was hard, I could do it.
Next in line at the market was the canned peaches.
I picked up a jar snug with half moon orbs suspended in their own thick syrup. And saw my past once again . . . in the peaches.
This time I saw my five-year-old sitting next to my sister in Mrs. Hagen’s kitchen. Mrs. Hagen was a grandmotherly, kind-heart-ed babysitter.
For snack Mrs. Hagen made my sister and me graham cracker and chocolate frosting sandwiches. I loved squishing the thick layer of frosting out the sides and licking the edges.
Mrs. Hagen lovingly tended the
largest garden in the neighbor-hood. It was flush with all kinds of peas, wax beans, strawberries, raspberries, cucumbers, pump-kins. Most summer days were spent sitting beside the warm composting piles that smelled like rotting grass as I lay in wait for the unsuspecting garter snake to slither out.
I loved helping Mrs. Hagen peel apples from her grove of apple trees. My sister and I were given potato peelers. I remember feel-ing awed by Mrs. Hagen’s paring prowess; standing in front of the kitchen sink, she would peel the skin off an entire apple in one long string—one after another.
Our reward for helping was a slice of cinnamony sweet apple pie.
But my favorite treat of all was
Mrs. Hagen’s canned peaches. Canning peaches was an all-
day event: steaming jars, cutting peaches and filling a cauldron sized enamel pot with fruit, pounds of C&H sugar and pectin.
Afterward we helped transport most of Mrs. Hagen’s jars into the cellar.
However, when we returned to Mrs. Hagen’s kitchen, her gift to us was a beautifully curved mound of cottage cheese topped with a still warm canned peach with syrup juice spilling over the sides into a sweet, sour, creami-ness that warmed my belly.
I recall how comforted and spe-cial I felt in Mrs. Hagen’s garden and kitchen — at a time when my parents were in the midst of a divorce. Those days spent at Mrs. Hagen’s were a haven.
I’ve been paying forward Mrs. Hagen’s canned comfort food in the form of strawberry and rasp-berry jam.
Every season we visit the Renton Farmer’s Market prowling around for the plumpest, juici-est raspberries and strawberries. And like Mrs. Hagen my kids and I make a day of it: cutting fruit, boiling and cooking jam, design-ing fun labels and packaging with recipes and fun tags to pass out to friends and family.
“So Mommy, are you going to get the beans or the peaches?”
I glanced down at Patrick.I put the jars back on the shelf. “We’re going to learn how to
make both!” I said.
I love suggestions! If you know of people or places in Renton that surprise, delight and inspire the community, drop me a line at [email protected].

For the Renton Reporter
Local women looking for love swarmed to The Landing mall in Renton Saturday afternoon for a chance at making it onto ABC’s reality show “The Bachelor.”
“I’m a little nervous,” said would-be-contestant Brenna Hindman. “It’s a huge opportunity to put myself out there.”
Hindmand, a fitness instructor and avid fan of “The Bachelor,” signed up for the show with her best friend.
She and other hopefuls filled out ap-plications, posed for photos and sat for taped interviews. They all answered various
questions about their professions, past romances and where they are in their lives.
“I really strive to be honest,” Hindman said regarding what approach she planned to take with the series. “I don’t always feel
that from reality TV.”If she makes it to the final 25 contestants
who meet the bachelor, she said she plans on bringing her honesty to the show.
“Just being myself 100 percent,” she said, “just having good conversations and saying things that are true for me, whether it’s funny or a little off color, it’s just part of being real.”
Hindman said what puts her above the other contestants is the significant amount of life experience she has gained through her time traveling, as well as her sense of humor.
“I really feel like I can laugh at anything in life and that’s just part of the ride,” she
said. Another possible contestant Felicia Buck
came to the audition hoping to find love because she is not having success in her current situation.
Buck has watched every episode of every season of “The Bachelor” and said she thinks her chances of making it to the top 25 and possibly finding love are good.
“I definitely think there’s a chance, and that’s why I want to be on there,” she said.
As far as how she would approach being in the Bachelor house, competing against other women, she said she wouldn’t want to make enemies, but she would also want to keep on track with the reason she entered the competition: finding love.
“I obviously wouldn’t want to get in
fights with everyone on the show, but I also wouldn’t be there to be everyone’s friend either,” Buck said.
Another regular “Bachelor” viewer Brit-tany Chase traveled to Renton from Port-land, where she is attending college. Seeing the casting call online at ABC’s website for the reality show made her decide to try out.
Chase is confident about her ability to advance in the competition and said she is not like the typical women who appear on the show.
“I figured I might as well give it a shot,” she said about auditioning. “I’ve got noth-ing to lose, so I thought I might as well try. But my chances might be good.”
Search for love on ‘The Bachelor’ starts in Renton

IKEA RENTON RIVER DAYS PRESENTS :
Duck Hunt IIIA Case of Fowl Play
Itʼs time to round
up the usual duckspects!
Sherflock Holmesʼs friend Doctor Ducky has been ducknapped by a real bad egg!The fowl ducknapper left a ransom note – but not in one piece. Sherflock has found out that 30 duckspects in 30 different locations in Renton each have part of the ransom note to prove their alibi – in the form of a stamp. When you find a duck, you will stamp your Duck Hunt sheet by the name of the duck you found. Finding all the ducks will give you the ransom note – undoubtedly in the form of a final clue. Figure out what the ducknapper wants and bring the ransom to Sherflockʼs helpers at IKEA Renton River Days to save Doctor Ducky.

Even if you donʼt find all the duckspects, bring your Duck Hunt sheet to the booth. The more duckspects you find, the more chances you have to win prizes when you bring your form to the Duck Hunt booth during Renton River Days. (If you bring the ransom, you will get an even bigger chance to win.) Sherflock welcomes all help, so each member of a family
can have his or her own form.
Donʼt worry, the mysterious ducknapper likes to play games. He plans on giving clues to the suspects locations – a few at a time. So go to www.facebook.com/RentonRiverDays to find clues to where the duckspects are hiding. The ducknapper will keep giving out clues throughout the month leading up to Renton River Days. Also check out the Renton Reporter for information on the hunt.

Duck Hunt III Game carD | clIp It out
By DEAN A. RADFORD
Is Doctor Ducky doomed?Not if you figure out how to pay his
ransom.Of course, there are a lot of unknowns,
not unusual for this being Duck Hunt III: A Case of Fowl Play, when the mystery isn’t solved until the last page.
Any good mystery has a web of tension and deceit.
“One of our poor duckies has been duck-napped,” says Evon Fuerst, who is the duck wrangler (coordinator) for this year’s IKEA Renton River Days annual mystery duck hunt.
The idea is to find all 30 decorated ducks
hosted at locations throughout Renton, mostly businesses and public buildings, and get a game-card stamped that when completed will spell out a message and have instructions about how to ransom Doctor Ducky (who, by the way, is not a doctor).
The ducks are named after mystery writ-ers or characters in a mystery novel. It’s Sherflock Holmes’s, Doctor Ducky’s friend, who’s leading the hunt.
The ducks are 12 inches long and 9 inches tall.
The roughly month-long Duck Hunt III kicks off Friday, June 22, and ends Wednes-day, July 26, followed by the big Renton River Days weekend. During the weekend,

Everyone is tempted to try to write their own Will or power of attorney. It looks so simple, and blank forms are so easy to find. But there are significant issues involved on which an experienced attorney can provide valuable counsel that might keep a simple situation from becoming an awkward or expensive or even impossible transaction. We don’t want to find out after someone is disabled or deceased that their “simple” documents do not solve the problem, or actually create a greater difficulty that could have been avoided. Investing in proper estate planning counsel is a wise investment.
You wouldn’t think to hire an inexperienced plumber to solve a plumbing problem. Why would you hire an inexperienced attorney (yourself) to solve a legal problem?
If you have any questions about wills, trusts, or any aspect of estate planning, you clearly need to speak to someone who focuses his practice on these issues. I have more than 35 years of experience providing thoughtful and comprehensive counsel for clients. Please call 425-227-8700 to make an appointment at one of my two offices, which are conveniently located in Renton and Kent.
Committed to you and the community.

turn in the completed game card at the official Duck Hunt booth for the chance to win prizes and the satis-faction of rescuing Doctor Ducky.
“We won’t know Doc-tor Ducky’s fate until River Days,” says Fuerst.
The Duck Hunt was developed by Mike Selinker of Renton, owner of the Sammamish-based Lone Shark Games, to mark the 25th anniversary in 2010 of the IKEA Renton River Days. Evon Fuerst is his wife and she’s taken on the task of duck wrangler.

How Duck Hunt III worksThe concept is simple.Find the ducks, figure out
the ransom from clues, pay the ransom, free Doctor Ducky.
And win prizes.Renton businesses and
organizations are hosting 30 ducks throughout the city as part of the IKeA Renton River Days Duck Hunt III. The clues to find the ducks will be posted on Facebook (www.facebook.com/RentonRiverDays) and at RentonReporter.com start-ing June 22.
each host will stamp a game card that when completed will explain how to rescue the duck-napped Doctor Ducky.
Players can download game cards at the Facebook page, cut out the one with this story or pick up one at any of the locations hosting a duck.

Is Renton’s policy to preserve trees just for show?
In last week’s paper, Phyllis Forister com-plained about Renton’s lack of protection for the tress on Rainier Avenue. This is not the first time Renton officials have turned the other way when it comes to protecting large trees. All you have to do is take a look at developments on the East Renton Plateau. Renton is heaven for developers.
Here is one example.In early 2007, the plat of Rosemonte received
approval from the King County hearing exam-iner. In September 2007, Renton came up with its “tree preservation” plan. In 2009 Rosemonte developers asked Renton officials to proceed to annex this property. That is 1 1/2 years after the tree policy became effective, but Renton officials didn’t care.
Six weeks ago, clearing started on 17 acres on Nile Avenue. All the trees came down, includ-ing two large maple trees. One of the Renton planners acknowledged that Renton officials didn’t say a thing about protecting any of the trees on this property. They told the developer he could take down all the trees and planting small “stick” trees in their place. Renton of-ficials don’t care about saving mature trees.
As Ms. Forister mentioned, the city received
a Green City Award not too long ago. Maybe someone needs to tell this group the truth about Renton. Renton officials should also explain to their residents and people who live in Renton sphere of influence why they have a “tree preservation policy” but they don’t use it. Is it just for show?
Michael and Claudia DonnellyRenton
Residents need more say in writing beautification policies
I’m very saddened and wondering if busi-ness along Rainier Avenue had any input into removing the beautiful mature trees within the last few weeks. I can only guess business would appreciate the tree removal, i.e. gain-ing improved visibility. Anyway it’s much too late placing blame on the city planners or local business for making Rainier Avenue an exten-sion of Highway 99. The only thing missing are the “street ladies” and various drug interac-tions. Going forward, maybe we the residents can have more of a “say” in improving Renton’s overall beautification policies that will impact future generations.

Everyone must help stop violence
It’s been a relief to hear that no one else has been wounded or killed by gunfire in Seattle in recent days.
The sadness still hangs over Lindbergh High School, where Jessica Scholl was a junior. Her former
boyfriend is charged with first-degree murder in her brutal slaying on May 25.
Violence has rained down on the region in recent weeks; Seattle in particular through early June has wit-nessed nearly two dozen homicides, nearly all with guns.
Domestic violence killed Jessica, just as it did two years ago when Kathy Chou, also a Lindbergh student, was murdered.
Guns and domestic violence, alone and together, leave heartbreak in a community. That’s why it’s good that the Scholl family and the Renton School District are working together to help put an end to teen violence in Renton and beyond.
Jessica’s former boyfriend, Jarod T. Lane, told his mother that he “just snapped” before her murder, as revealed in charging documents.
Someone who “just snaps” has been winding up for some time. Those close to him or her should notice those mood swings, the increased tension, the overt actions that could lead to harm and act before that someone or someone else suffers the consequences.
We know from court papers that Lane’s mood was dark. Of course, he’s innocent until proven guilty or he pleads guilty. Wednesday he pleaded not guilty.
We can’t stop a bullet. But we can stop a person from pulling the trigger or swinging a fist. Or at least we should try – before it happens.
SIFF has plenty of room to grow
It’s good to hear that the Seattle International Film Festival is committed to returning to Renton next year.
Nothing is more obvious than the fact that Renton has come together as a community to make SIFF –
and the movies it shows – feel welcome.The next step is to build an audience, which will take
time. And those in that audience should include more than just people with a Renton address.
That’s why we like the idea that next year SIFF make the point, even more strongly, that Renton is just the VENUE and filmgoers should come from all across South King County.
SIFF was drawn to Renton because of its diversity. But go to any community in the south end and you’ll find a vibrant mix of cultures from around the world. That sounds like SIFF’s film schedule, along with some really good home-grown films thrown in.
It’s also good to hear that SIFF’s top brass is going to come to South King County to better understand the film audience here.
We bristle at any suggestion that the south end isn’t ready for films that don’t need popcorn to really enjoy. That’s not true.

“Launching a new location takes time in terms of build-ing an audience,” he said.
In Seattle SIFF opened SIFF Cinema at McCaw Hall in 2007. Spence said it took three years to build “a devoted audience” there and now the SIFF Cinema year-round at-tendance will surpass 90,000.
SIFF is giving Renton time to build an audience, Dale Estey said.
“They are really pleased with our enthusiasm and the depth of our support,” she said of SIFF.
The city will defer in large part to SIFF’s expertise to handle what Dale Estey described as a marketing and community-relations challenge.
But Renton already is considering ways to boost ticket sales next year.
Dale Estey met with Deborah Person, SIFF’s managing director, near the end of the festival in Renton to discuss some ideas.
Ideas include positioning Renton as a SIFF venue for all of South King County and not just Renton, she said. Local organizers will work closely with SIFF on what films are shown in Renton, what films “might resonate,” she said.
Dale Estey wants to create a “stronger nexus” between the gala and the first full day of the festival, Saturday. The gala is a “great party,” she said, but the question is how to make it into a teaser for the festival.
Person also wants to come to Renton to meet with the community to better understand the audience, Dale Estey said.
“This year, I am feeling there is a real partnership,” said Dale Estey. “Now it’s a question of how to strengthen the audience and build off the foundation we have.”

Gov. Gregoire recognizes two Renton city plans
The City of Renton has won 2012 Smart Commu-nities Awards for its city center community plan and its 20-year parks plan from Gov. Chris Gregoire.
Now in its 7th year, the program recognizes achievements by local leaders to promote “smart growth” planning and projects that contribute to our quality of life in Washington state, according to a governor’s press release.
“We need vibrant, quality communities to keep and attract people and businesses to Washington state,” Gregoire said. “I commend the work of those local governments and their partners recognized with this award. Their efforts are vital to our contin-ued economic recovery, and help make Washington a great state in which to live and do business.”
The Governor’s Smart Communities Awards to cities will be presented June 21 at the Association of Washington Cities annual conference in Vancouver. County winners will receive awards at the Washing-ton State Association of Counties annual meeting in Wenatchee on Nov. 14.

degrees during the swim season.The most popular attraction at the center
is the wave pool; it’s system was made in Scotland.
Although Perkins is a former Marine who also worked in aquatics for the U.S. Army and Navy, he doesn’t run his crew like the military.
“No, I couldn’t do that. I wouldn’t have any employees,” he said with a chuckle.
But, the lifeguards at the water park have a very strict routine that keeps them fresh and alert for any signs of trouble.
There are 16 guard stations which require around 21 lifeguards.
Lifeguards go to two stations, spending 15 minutes up in the chair at each station for a total of 30 minutes at a time.
Then they are down, out of the sun for 15 minutes before going back to their watch.
“A lot of places, they keep their guards up for two hours at a time,” said Perkins. “The most we let our guards stay up is 45 min-utes because they get fatigued. Especially on a really busy day, it’s very mentally chal-lenging for them, I think, to stay focused.”
The staff has never had to perform CPR on anyone at the water park and there have been no drownings or near drownings, Perkins said.
They do have a lot of assists or rescues of small children in the wave pool.
Lifeguards try and keep children in the wave pool at the child’s shoulder-level.
“Sometimes kids get out a little farther and a wave will go over their head and they’ll start struggling,” Perkins said. “And we’ll have to jump in and get them.”
Like any other facility, the staff ’s biggest safety concern is people running.
In their offices at the water park staff has a map that documents where all of their incidents or “saves” took place in the pools.
“That kind of identifies our problem areas and it helps keep track of basically where the saves are,” said Perkins.
A city council member suggested the idea.
The Henry Moses Aquatic Center has a visitor capacity of about 950 people, but they cap it at 700 to 750 people.
Perkins has worked at the water park since it opened in 2004.
“It’s a fun job; I enjoy it,” he said.

The following incidents were compiled based on City of Renton police reports.
By TRACEy COMPTON
Police investigated a loud party com-plaint on June 3.
An anonymous neighbor in the 500 block of Monroe Avenue Northeast told police of a loud party after 1 a.m.
Police arrived and noticed the loud mu-sic and the odor of burnt marijuana.
There were 12 to 15 people inside the house with numerous alcohol cans and bottles in the living room and on the patio.
The 21-year-old resident came to a door and becoming confrontational, told the police it was his house and that he couldn’t be arrested.
Police explained they could arrest him for breach of peace if he didn’t keep the party quiet.
The man appeared intoxicated and was argumentative.
A female roommate came out and tried to quiet the man down, while he took a de-fiant stance and waved his arms in the air.
He even-tually went back into the house and got his guests to start chant-
ing “party, party, party.”The man came back outside and told
police there was nothing they could do about it.
Police arrested the man and the party became silent.
Police also found the man had an out-standing misdemeanor warrant from Kent.
Lewd conduct at poolPolice responded to lewd conduct at
Lindbergh High pool on June 2.The incident happened at the pool at
16426 128th Ave. S.E. at about 2:15 p.m.A witness told police that a teenage
boy was in the men’s locker room walk-ing around naked and apparently aroused while staring at people.
Then the teenager got dressed and exited
the building.The witness was concerned because the
teen was supposedly naked and staring at children in the locker room.
The 14-year-old teen was later identified and he at first denied the incident.
After the witness came forward and identified him, the teen confessed to taking a shower, but denied staring at people while aroused.
Police gave the youth a courtesy ride home and told his mother what happened.
Fleeing suspects chasedPolice chased fleeing suspects downtown
Renton on May 30.Police responded to a possible burglary
in progress at 275 Bronson Way Northeast at about 1:16 a.m.
An officer encountered two males in that area and matching the suspects’ description and began to pursue them.
The vehicle pulled into the parking lot of a Burger King, 311 Sunset Blvd. N.
At first the vehicle drove slowly through the parking lot then abruptly accelerated out, heading south on Sunset Boulevard.
Police pursued the suspects’ vehicle reaching speeds of 60 miles per hour, until it crashed into parked cars at an apartment complex.
Both suspects abandoned the vehicle, trying to flee.
Police caught the driver, who turned out to be a 26-year-old Seattle man.
The man claimed not to know the other passenger and police could not catch him.
The man was arrested for felony attempt-ing to elude a police vehicle.
Car prowls at RTCFour youths were suspected of car prowl-
ing at Renton Technical College May 18.A 50-year-old man on campus witnessed
three youths trying to break into a vehicle at about 9:45 a.m.
The man described two Hispanic men in their 20s and another man of unknown race also in his 20s prying something against the rear passenger side of a vehicle.
One of the Hispanic males was wearing a black baseball hat, dark blue sweat shirt and pants. The other Hispanic male was wear-ing a dark blue sweat shirt and dark blue pants. The third male outside of the vehicle was wearing black and red shorts.
The 50-year-old also noticed what he thought was a get-away vehicle and driver of possible East Indian descent, running the engine while talking on the phone.
As the man approached the group, the three got into the vehicle and took off.
Police later apprehended the suspects, but the 50-year-old only recognized one as being the driver of the so-called get-away vehicle.
The driver was a 17-year-old Kent man, who told police he was playing hooky from school and didn’t know the other men with

rested for investigation of malicious mischief but later released to relatives because the Juvenile Detention Cen-ter declined to book him.
Luring attempt at Target
A woman reported that someone tried to lure her son while in Target on May 18.
The 39-year-old woman was at the register checking out when her 8-year-old son went to the restroom at the Target, 1215 North Landing Way.
The son came back to the woman and said someone tried to lure him into a stall.
The boy said he went into the bathroom and heard a voice whisper from a closed stall, “Come into the bathroom.”
Target security investi-gated but could not find a person matching the boy’s description of the suspect’s shoes in the bathroom.
The store security officers were told not to call police unless they could identify a
suspect.Police were to review
store surveillance video.
Attempted burglary
Police responded to an attempted burglary on May 19.
Someone called police around 11 p.m. to report they witnessed a man put-ting on gloves and picking up a rock and walking to the back side of a residence in the 4100 block of North-east 19th Street.
When officers arrived, they discovered a rock was thrown through the back sliding glass door of the residence.
A 74-year-old woman was the only resident inside, sitting on her bed.
She told police she was asleep when she heard a loud crash downstairs.
It was unclear if anything was taken at the time.
The suspect was de-scribed as a black male of unknown age, wearing a white hat with long hair in a ponytail.

By TRACEy COMPTON
The Renton School District celebrated the culmina-tion of 13 years of hard work, if you count kinder-garten, of seniors graduating from Hazen, Renton and Lindbergh High Schools on Tuesday at ShoWare Center in Kent.
Waves of seniors from each of the schools filed into the back of the center all afternoon to line up for their commencement ceremonies.
They hugged one another, straightened each other’s caps and sashes and expressed their nervousness and excitement about graduation.
Many of them have been anticipating this moment for a long time.
“I’ve been pretty excited,” said Hayley Woodbridge of Hazen High School. “I’ve had the countdown on my phone going to graduation the whole year. I’m just kind of relieved to get it over with and get to move on to whatever else is next.”
Woodbridge was one of the 23 Oliver M. Hazen scholars who marched in the commencement ceremo-ny. It is a scholarship given to students of the school for their overall school involvement and for having a 3.5 or better grade point average.
In his commencent address, Hazen’s principal, John Kniseley, encouraged students to participate in the upcoming election, jokingly reminding them they are the last class before the end of the world, according to the Mayan Calendar, and commended them for their participation in school activities.
“You will never achieve real success unless you en-joy what you’re doing,” Kniseley told the graduates.
Many of the students said they appreciated the op-portunities high school brought their way.
Hazen’s Andrew Le remarked that he started high school as a quiet guy but was transformed by the opportunities he had that took him to state level com-petitions on the swim team and in clubs like DECA, (Distributive Education Clubs of America) and FBLA (Future Business Leaders of America).
“It’s just a lot of opportunities brought to me and I learned so much about the world and how I can improve myself to be a better person,” Le said.
One thing Le won’t miss is the food, he said, which “wasn’t on par with my standards, but it was enough.”
Renton High School’s Phe’shay Locke found her motivation to achieve in school and pursue her col-lege aspirations through the leadership opportunities she discovered at Renton High School.
Locke joked around with her fellow student body officers in the hall as other Renton students congre-gated in locker rooms preparing for their entrance.
She had a rocky start to her freshmen year but turned it all around through her involvement with student council, she said.
Now she wants to go to Washington State Universi-ty to pursue becoming a teacher and return to Renton High and teach English.
“So, I think leadership has impacted me and Renton High School with our motto ‘pride, tradition and excellence,’ really has pushed me forward to do that,” Locke said.
The journey begins for Renton’s grads

“You will never achieve real success unless you en-joy what you’re doing,” Kniseley told the graduates.
Many of the students said they appreciated the op-portunities high school brought their way.
Hazen’s Andrew Le remarked that he started high school as a quiet guy but was transformed by the opportunities he had that took him to state level com-petitions on the swim team and in clubs like DECA, (Distributive Education Clubs of America) and FBLA (Future Business Leaders of America).
“It’s just a lot of opportunities brought to me and I learned so much about the world and how I can improve myself to be a better person,” Le said.
One thing Le won’t miss is the food, he said, which “wasn’t on par with my standards, but it was enough.”
Renton High School’s Phe’shay Locke found her motivation to achieve in school and pursue her col-lege aspirations through the leadership opportunities she discovered at Renton High School.
Locke joked around with her fellow student body officers in the hall as other Renton students congre-gated in locker rooms preparing for their entrance.
She had a rocky start to her freshmen year but turned it all around through her involvement with student council, she said.
Now she wants to go to Washington State Universi-ty to pursue becoming a teacher and return to Renton High and teach English.
“So, I think leadership has impacted me and Renton High School with our motto ‘pride, tradition and excellence,’ really has pushed me forward to do that,” Locke said.
The road to graduation is a journey that parents share along with their student.
For Cynthia Kearsley, mom to Renton grad Dylan Kearsley, it took “a lot of hard work and determina-tion” to make it to commencement.
Dylan was in Special Education classes at Renton High and received a certificate of completion instead of a diploma in Tuesday’s exercises.
His mother said he had a lot of great teachers who helped him achieve this goal.
“Dylan had a lot of people that stood behind him and helped him through and I’m really grateful for that,” said Cynthia, who expressed a mixture of happi-ness and sadness at the day’s event.
After graduation, Dylan will go to an adult tran-sition program, where he’ll be matched with a job coach.
“They will help him work on his life skills and then also help him find a job that he can learn and possibly do on his own one day,” said Andrea McMillan, his special education teacher.
McMillan had three students in her program receiv-ing certificates at the ceremony.
One thing most every student agreed they will not miss about high school is waking up early.
Lindbergh’s Calebse Cange is looking forward to creating his own schedule at Green River Community College next year where he will go until he transfers to Eastern Washington University.
“This is so exciting; I’ve been waiting for this day forever, happy that it’s here,” he said.
The journey begins for Renton’s gradsCommenCement 2012

Changing the myth of scary dentistry,one smile at a time...
Emergency Dental Tip:In general, baby teeth that get dislodged are not re-implanted due to the risk of compromising the forming adult tooth. For dislodged permanent teeth, do the following: –locate all of the pieces or whole tooth, hold tooth by the crown not the root and rinse gently with warm water if dirty. Never transport the tooth in water or scrub the root. Place the tooth in either milk or saline solution. The tooth has the best chance of survival if replaced within 30 minutes. Follow up with dentist as soon as possible. For more information about how to keep your child’s mouth healthy, visit us online at www.akidsplacedentistry.com

Exercising the brain as much as exercis-ing the body to keep both fit and healthy has become the new mantra for the aging baby boomer generation. Scientists seem to agree. Studies show that people who were cognitively active throughout their lives are less likely to experience mental decline as they grow older.
Age-related dementia such as Alzheimer’s disease is the most feared health condition among older Americans today, second only to cancer. It is also one of the most significant health threats of the 21st century, according to a report by the Alzheimer’s Association and the Harvard School of Public Health that was first published at an international conference on the subject in Paris, France, last year.
The causes for Alzheimer’s are not yet fully understood and there are currently no effec-tive treatments that can halt or reverse the progressively debilitating disease. Researchers have suggested that diet and exercise as well as mental stimulation may serve as preventive measures, but there is not enough scientific evidence that these have a significant impact.
There are a number of health conditions, however, believed to promote the develop-ment of dementia. One is inflammation of the brain caused by stress hormones such as cortisol, which is toxic to nerve cells in the brain and especially to those responsible for
memory. Another contrib-uting factor is cardio-vascular disease because it can prevent the brain from receiving sufficient blood supply, thereby damaging it.
A more controversial suggestion is that educa-tion, or lack thereof, can make a difference in the likelihood of someone becoming de-mented later in life. Obviously, the notion that the well-educated have a better shot at staying mentally healthy while the unschooled run the risk of losing their minds is hard to accept because it sounds elitist and snobbish. That makes it difficult to raise the issue without provoking strong reactions. Still, we have to look at the evidence.
Neuroscientists say that the reason why education can help prevent or at least slow down an aging person’s cognitive decline is that during learning processes structural changes in the brain’s neural network take place as neurons connect with one another. This is only possible because the central nervous system is in constant dynamic flux, which enables it to respond and adapt to changing requirements.
The more learning experiences we undergo
over the years, the more neural connections we develop in the brain. This does not only happen when we learn something brand new – like a foreign language or a computer program – but even when we do routine work or play our favorite games. The already established neural connections just multiply as we repeat similar mental processes. That is why most tasks become easier to master over time, which is what learning is. This process is called “neural redundancy,” meaning that many neural connections become redundant through repetition – but not obsolete because when some connections get damaged or degenerate, others take over and continue to function in their place. In other words, the more “redundant” connections we develop over a lifetime through constant learning, the less likely we will lose our skills and abilities as we age.
So the question arises whether we can avoid the decline of our mental capacities by, let’s say, learning Mandarin, reading philosophical books or mastering programming software? Not if you start late, scientists say. Being mentally active from early on and throughout life, not just when you reach old age, is what makes the difference, according to Dr. Wil-liam Jagust, a professor of public health and neuroscience at the University of California
at Berkeley. What you do at 40 or 50 is more important than what you take on at 75.
“Older people seem to have less efficient brains [than younger people] and have to work their brains harder,” said Dr. Jagust in an interview on the subject with the New York Times (3/8/2012). “People who stay cognitive-ly active may be able to use their brains more efficiently,” he added.
Does it then still make sense to strive for mental fitness when you are already ap-proaching retirement age or even later? Within limits, yes, Dr. Jagust agrees. Memory usually diminishes with age, even with people who do not have dementia, he said. It’s more about preserving the abilities you have than acquiring new ones, although both go hand in hand.
For those looking for learning opportuni-ties in their later years, there is no shortage of programs offered by universities and colleges throughout the country. And these are not the only options. Educational travel programs are becoming extremely popular among retirees and the travel industry is more than happy to accommodate them.
They say, a good education is wasted on the young – well, it’s certainly not wasted on those who see lifelong learning as yet another fountain of youth. It may not be able to pre-vent mental decline in the end, but, in the meantime, it clearly does no harm..

(NAPSI)—Grilling is a rite of passage during warmer months, with hamburgers arguably be-ing Americans’ favorite food to grill. However, hamburgers are often high in calories and fat.
How do you make this American staple healthier? Try seafood, which is low in fat and calories and filled with heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids. Because of seafood’s many benefits, the 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends people should eat at least 8 ounces a week. Substituting seafood, such as tuna, for the protein a recipe calls for is an easy way to make any meal healthier.
Try this great-tasting and healthy hamburger alternative. For more healthy seafood recipes, visit www.ChickenoftheSea.com.
Cajun Tuna Burgers2 (12-oz) cans Chunk Light Tuna in Water, drained1 cup breadcrumbs2 eggs, beaten½ cup each: diced red bell pepper, green bell pepper and green onions¼ cup Cajun seasoning1 tsp hot pepper sauce6 whole-wheat hamburger buns
In a bowl, combine tuna, breadcrumbs and eggs. Add the next 5 ingredients and mix.
Divide and shape tuna mixture into 6 patties. On a grill, cook tuna burgers using a grill-friendly pan until browned and heated through. Or, use a nonstick skillet on the stove.
Place each burger on a bun and top with condiments and vegetables. (Serves 6)

The King County Road Services Division will make safety improvements at an intersection just east of Renton with federal grant funding.
At the intersection of 168th Avenue Southeast and Southeast 128th Av-enue Street – located north of Liberty High School – the county will restripe the two westbound lanes to provide a left-turn-only lane and a single through lane. The existing traffic signal will be changed to provide a left-turn signal, and the pedestrian facilities will be improved.
The changes are antici-pated to reduce the number and severity of rear-end collisions involving motor-ists waiting to turn left from
Southeast 128th Avenue Street onto 168th Avenue Southeast. Currently, a curve limits the visibility of vehicles stopped in the inside westbound lane.
Construction is expected to begin by September and be completed by year end. No full road closures are anticipated to complete this work. Project signs will be installed on the approaches to the intersection to alert motorists a few weeks prior to the start of construction.
Comments about this safety project are being accepted from June 15-29. You can submit them to Community Relations, King County Department
of Transportation by: phone at (206) 263-9770; by email to [email protected]; or send to 201 S. Jackson St., MS: KSC-TR-0824, Seattle, WA 98104.

Viet Vo of Renton landed a bright Chinook near Westport June 10. He is the winner in the kickoff of the Salmon Catch of the Week.
The Chinook dressed out at 21 pounds 12 ounces. Viet won the daily Westport Charterboat Association Derby for Sunday, and put him at the top of the season leader board for salmon two days into the fishing.
The early Chinook season began June 9 for hatchery Chinook only. The all-species salmon season begins June 24, Sundays through Thursdays.
Anglers can enter the derby for a chance at winning one of Westport’s summer-long derby prizes, furnished by local businesses and the Westport Charterboat Association.
