City investigating series of small weekend fires along trail
BY BRIAN BECKLEY
Renton fire officials are investigating a series of small fires set this weekend near the Cedar River Trail.
According to Renton Fire Marshal Anjela St. John, three small fires this weekend appear to have been intentionally set and investigators believe two of them to be related.
The most damaging of the fires was set under the Williams Avenue bridge at 5:30 a.m. Monday and caused damage to a conduit of wires that run along the side of the bridge. St. John said that a flare or fire-work of some kind was used to light that fire.
Damage is estimated to be around $5,000.The Williams Avenue bridge also houses a natural
gas pipeline near where the fire was set, but St. John said this weekend’s fire was not large enough to worry fire crews about its proximity to the pipeline.
In addition, city crews notified fire officials on Monday of a burned area around the base of a utility pole in the 100 block of Williams Avenue North. St. John said someone appears to have taken garbage from a nearby trash container, piled it around the base of the pole and then lit it on fire.
While the fire was apparently not large enough to warrant a call while burning, St. John said damage is estimated at about $1,000 and the city is looking into whether the pole, which is now charred, will have to be replaced.
A third fire was also set on Saturday in a plastic garbage can across the street from the utility pole fire. The trash can has since been removed. St. John

Dog day afternoon Hicks gets 30 months for July 2014 boating death
BY DEAN A. RADFORD
A 47-year-old Renton man whose speedboat slammed into an unlit sailboat at night on Lake Washington in July 2014, killing a 33-year-old Seattle school teacher, was sentenced Sept. 4 to 30 months in prison.
Richard Anthony Hicks was convicted in July of one count of homicide by watercraft and two counts of assault by watercraft by a King County Superior Court jury.
Hicks was under the influence of alcohol when the motorboat he was piloting col-lided with the sailboat that was moving slowly toward Leschi Marina in Seattle, according to prosecutors.
Hicks faced a standard prison term of 51 to 68 months but Superior Court Judge Carol Schapira sentenced him to what’s considered an exceptionally low prison

N Local couple’s charity will help trafficking victimsBY BRIAN BECKLEY
Inspiration can come from the most unlikely places. The inspiration for Destiny House, a local nonprofit dedicated to helping victims of human trafficking, for example, was a bit nontraditional.
“It started with a music video,” co-founder Lisa Mitts said this week.
The video, for a song called “Our Silence is Shameful” by Luke Dowler, opens with the sta-tistic that 1.2 million children are trafficked into the commercial sex trade each year and shows a girl who has been abducted and is forced into a room at the end with other girls.
After seeing it, Mitts and her husband Da-vid felt the need to get involved and the pair founded Destiny House Restoration Center with the goal of helping victims of human trafficking find their way back into society.
“It’s become the hidden crime,” she said, add-ing that human trafficking is the second-largest source of illegal income worldwide.
David is a pastor at Renton’s One New Man Ministry and opens an acupuncture business in the city. Though the couple’s faith helps inspires them, Lisa is quick to say it is not a Christian charity and not connected to any ministry, but open to all.
Lisa is an artist herself and was so moved by the video, she made one of her own, for a song called “Where Has Love Gone.” Though the song was not originally about human trafficking, Lisa said the lyrics fit the cause so she made also a video aimed at raising money. It premiered in 2012 . This weekend, the video will be featured at the L.A. Awareness Film Festival.
Lisa said the money will go toward helping make Destiny House a physical reality. So far, the couple has raised nearly $40,000, but they have a goal of $250,000 in order to purchase the land and house to put their program into action.
Working with Dr. Stacy Cecchet, a clinical psychologist who specializes in trauma and forensic psychology, the Mitts have worked to develop a program they call HEARTS. It stands for Healing, Education and Restoration Treat-ment for Survivors and incorporates counseling, group therapy, GED education with the goal of
getting a job, developing basic healthy life skills, connecting professional resources for drug ad-diction, detox, and medical attention, creative therapies such as art and connecting with cor-porations who would work with us to hire our graduates of the program.
Lisa said while there are other programs out there, none have been as complete in trying to get the girls back into the world.
“If the girls get rescued but don’t get healed, they go back to the life,” Lisa said, adding “it costs a lot of money to do this kind of program.”
The hope is to eventually build or buy a house in a rural setting that would house six to eight girls at a time for up to a year as they went
through the HEARTS program.Lisa said Destiny House has received official
nonprofit status and the couple hopes to con-tinue raising money to help deal with a growing issue, particularly in or region.
“You think of it as far off,” Lisa said, adding that she was “astounded” to find it in her own back yard.
“I want people to come and support this vi-sion,” Lisa said.

said because of the proximity, officials believe the pole and trash can fires are connected but are unsure of the fire under the bridge.
Earlier this year, the city experienced a spate of small fires in garbage cans and other areas around the downtown core, but St. John said the person responsible for those fires was caught and is still in jail, making it unlikely they are connected.
In addition to the fires, there was also some vandalism along the trail, including a broken window at the Renton Senior Activity Center.
St. John said the investigation in still active and officials are still looking into the fires, including the possibility of video footage in the area around the bridge.
“We’re still looking to see if there’s other evidence,” she said.

term. She’ll officially explain her reasons in what’s called a Findings of Facts and Conclusions of Law to be filed at 1:30 p.m. Sept. 21.
The defense had argued for an ex-ceptional sentence below the standard range because the sailboat’s operator also had been drinking, according to testimony.
The prosecution did not recom-mend the lighter sentence. Hicks also
was fined $800, plus any restitution that’s ordered at a later hearing.
Hicks was sentenced to 20 months for each of the assault convictions, but those will be served concurrently with the 30-month sentence for homicide by watercraft.
There was no wind to power the 22 1/2-foot sailboat late on July 16, 2014, so it was powered by an electric trolling motor that moved it at 1 or 2 knots an hour, according to charging
documents.A passenger on the sailboat, Melissa
Protz, 33, died in the collision and two other passengers on the sailboat were injured, including the sailboat’s opera-tor, Shreedhar Madhavapeddi.
Protz taught sixth- and seventh-grade biology at Assumption-St. Bridget School in Seattle.

No one was injured in a two-alarm residential fire Wednesday morning in the 3300 block of Northeast 11th Street.
According to Deputy Chief Erik Wallgren, firefighters were called to the scene at about 6 a.m. to find a residence fully involved in fire.
After upgrading to a second alarm because of concerns the fire might jump to another structure, crews were able to beat back the flames.
Wallgren said the biggest challenge for firefighters were power lines that fell in front of the house and were still live, blocking the path to the house.
“Access from the front was a little compromised,” Wall-gren said.
According to Wallgren, the fire has been determined to be accidental and was caused by a lit candle placed on the plastic surround of a bathtub within the home.
Damage to the home is extensive and estimated at $200,000 to the structure and $50,000 in content loss. Two vehicles were also damaged in the fire, though no estimate for the vehicles has been provided yet.
Thankfully, there were no injuries in the blaze. The fam-ily was located at a nearby residence.
Wallgren said it was a good reminder to make sure smoke detectors are working properly.

Boeing employees in Renton have started final assembly on schedule of the first 737 MAX 8, the first member of Boeing’s new, more efficient single-aisle family.
“We continue to meet our plan on the 737 MAX program thanks to the dedication of our employee team and our suppliers,” said Keith Leverkuhn, vice president and general manager, 737 MAX program, Boeing Commer-cial Airplanes. “We have a lot more work still ahead of us but we’re very pleased with our progress to date.”
After the first fuselage arrived on Aug. 21 from Spirit Aerosystems in Wichita, Kan., mechanics began installing flight systems and insula-tion blankets, according to a Boeing news release.
“It’s an honor. There is only one crew that gets to be that first crew that builds that airplane. I’m really excited,” said Sean Christian, 737 MAX Electrical team lead.
Crews next moved the fuselage to the wing-to-body join position on the new production line where the first MAXs will be built. Mechanics then attached the wings to the body of the airplane.
The wings feature Boeing’s new Advanced Technology winglets. Designed exclusively for the 737 MAX, they will give customers up to 1.8 percent additional fuel-efficiency
improvement over today’s inline winglet designs.
Boeing will build the first 737 MAXs exclusively on the new pro-duction line in the Renton factory. Once mechanics prove out the pro-duction process, the team will extend MAX production to the other two final assembly lines in Renton.
“The opening of a brand new production line in Renton increases our flexibility and capacity, allow-ing this incredible team to continue to meet our customers’ need for the world’s most reliable single-aisle
airplanes, well into the future,” said Scott Campbell, vice president and general manager, 737 program and Renton site leader, Boeing Commer-cial Airplanes.
The 737 MAX team remains on track to roll out the first completed 737 MAX by the end of the year and fly it in early 2016. Launch customer Southwest Airlines is scheduled to take delivery of the first 737 MAX in the third quarter of 2017. In total, the 737 MAX family has 2,869 orders from 58 customers worldwide.

Gloria Hodge filed during a special filing period in early September for a seat on the Renton School Board that had no candidates in the Nov. 3 general election.
The race became candidate-less when the only candidate, Larry Crim, learned he didn’t live within the boundaries of Director District 4 and had to withdraw.
The incumbent, Denise Eider, had withdrawn her candi-dacy for re-election earlier.
There is one contested School Board race on the ballot, for District 3, pitting incumbent Lynn Desmarais and Larry Wright.
Incumbent Todd Franceschina is running unopposed in District 1.

‘Sweeney Todd’ opens FridayRenton Civic Theatre opens its fall season Sept. 18 with a
production of “Sweeney Todd, the Demon Barber of Fleet Street.”
Based on an infamous English urban legend of an unjustly exiled barber who returns to 19th century London seeking vengeance against the lecherous judge who framed him and ravaged his young wife, “Sweeney Todd” has simultaneously shocked, awed, and delighted audiences across the world.
The road to revenge leads Todd to Mrs. Lovett, a re-sourceful proprietress of a failing pie shop, above which he opens a new barber practice. Mrs. Lovett’s luck sharply shifts when Todd’s thirst for blood inspires the integration of an ingredient into her meat pies that has the people of London lining up.
With a book by Hugh Wheeler and music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, “Sweeney Todd” is the winner of eight Tony awards including Best Musical of 1979.
The play will run from Sept. 18 to Oct. 3 with shows on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
Tickets are $25 for adults and $20 for students and seniors and available at the box office or on the website at www.rentoncivitheatre.com
Workshops offered for nonprofitsThe Renton Community Foundation will offer two
education seminars designed to help nonprofits be all that they can be from 8:30 a.m. to noon, Oct. 2 at St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church.
The first session will be focused on why it’s important for nonprofits to be invested in a bequest program and how simple it is to initiate. The second session will help non-profits revise their strategic plans away from a dependence on special event fundraising and toward a results-oriented approach to donor fundraising.
The seminars are free and will be held at St. Matthew’s Lutheran Church at 1700 Edmonds Ave. N.E., Renton.

BY STATE SEN. STEVE LITZOW AND STATE REP. RUTH KAGI
Half of Washington’s children are set up to fail.On the first day of kindergarten, they’re
behind on math and language and don’t have the social and emotional skills to succeed.
These kids are starting a lifelong race 20 yards behind. Most never catch up.
If you’re a mom or dad, a business owner or a taxpayer, you should care.
Because when children fail, we all pay the price.
Children who drop out of school, do drugs and end up in a life of crime cost taxpayers, on average, $2.5 million each.
That money could be spent making college affordable or fixing our schools. It’s as simple as pay now, or pay a lot more later.
The good news is, we have a solution: high-quality early learning.
Research shows that children who participate in high- quality early learning have lower rates of: special education placement, grade repeti-tion, obesity and teen pregnancy, abuse and neglect and juvenile detention. They also have higher test scores and higher rates of high school graduation.
Scientists say 92 percent of a child’s brain is developed by age five, before he or she sets foot in a kindergarten classroom.
Washington has an ethical imperative to pre-pare all students to compete in the 21st-century job market and fully participate in democracy. With the legislature under a constitutional obligation to fully fund K-12 education, we can-not ignore highly effective programs that move children toward higher student achievement. Because we take our duty to the entire educa-
tional continuum – early learning, K-12 and higher education -- so seriously, we must invest in both high-quality early learning and our K-12 schools.
If we continue adding billions more dollars into our K-12 system without ensuring our children are ready to learn when they arrive, everyone loses. We’ll have a very expensive K-12 system and still over half our children will be set up to fail.
We have an obligation to ensure that every child – even children who are victims of abuse, neglect or poverty – has the opportunity to suc-ceed.
That’s why we sponsored the bipartisan Early Start Act, a comprehensive childcare and early learning quality improvement plan.
Early learning helps kids be ready on that first day of kindergarten and puts them on a path to success.
Lawmakers also have an obligation to taxpay-ers. We know every tax dollar must be spent as wisely as possible.
And early learning has the highest return on investment of any education – between $4 and $17 back for every dollar spent. Yet, our state currently spends less than one cent of every tax dollar received on early learning.
Albert Einstein said, “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.” If we want different results, we must change our spending. We must invest in high quality early learning.
If world-class brain research and many eco-nomic studies do not convince you, consider the real-world experience of those who see the need firsthand. Law enforcement, the business com
The decision of state Sen. Andy Hill to not take on Gov. Jay Inslee in 2016 forced the Democratic Party attack machine to brake hard and return to the shop.
Its operators had invested much time into manufacturing salvos to launch at the Red-mond Republican who they presumed would be the Democratic governor’s opponent next fall. In recent months, these Democratic operatives even test-fired a few in Hill’s direction.
Now they need to restock and reload for what appears to be a battle with a man they’ve mostly ignored – Bill Bryant, a mild-mannered and widely unknown member of the GOP mainstream who is an elected Seattle port commissioner.
As elated as the Democratic muscle is with not having to tackle Hill, it’s hard not to imagine they (and maybe Inslee too) are suffering a bit of a letdown as well.
They expected the governor would face as tough an election in 2016 as he did in 2012. Yet one-by-one, those with the seeming potential to mount such a challenge have chosen not to do so.
Rob McKenna, who lost to Inslee in 2012,
signaled he wasn’t seeking a rematch. State Sens. Bruce Dammeier of Puyallup and Steve Litzow of Mercer Island have also said no.
Congressman Dave Reichert is still talking himself up for the race but seems unlikely to talk himself into it.
If Bryant winds up the Democratic Party’s chief target, it means he’s also the Republican Party’s torchbearer.
That’s going to take some getting used to for GOP leaders. Unseating Inslee is a top priority but they, much like Democrats, had kind of counted on having a better-known personality taking on the governor.
Republican leaders must decide how much the state party will invest in a Bryant bid. There’s a risk that anything perceived to be less than all-in will be deemed a concession they don’t believe Bryant can win.
In 2012, the party contributed $2 mil-lion directly to the McKenna campaign and another $500,000 of in-kind contributions, according to campaign finance reports filed with the Public Disclosure Commission.
Nearly all of that arrived in the general election, so there’s plenty of time to watch how Bryant’s campaign evolves and political events unfold.
Meanwhile, those guiding the Republican Governors Association are hashing through the same kinds of questions.
In 2012, the RGA made its presence felt in Washington when it shelled out roughly $9 million in ads and mailers against Inslee. RGA officials have yet to signal a willingness to expend that much again.
They too want to see if Bryant’s campaign

can raise money and build an organization capable of taking on – and taking down – an incumbent in a state that hasn’t elected a Republican governor in 35 years.
Bryant on Monday picked up the endorsement of Dan Evans, a former three-term Republican governor. Backing from another venerable Republican is due to be
announced next week.Bryant’s aides say the campaign is exactly
where it is supposed to be at this stage.Still this is not how leaders of the Grand
Old Party envisioned the campaign would be playing out. Neither did the Democrats.

munity and military leaders agree that investing in high-quality childcare and early learning is the most effective step we can take to prevent crime, ensure a thriving economy and protect our national security.
This year’s passage of the Early Start Act along with a new budget that adds $159 million for early learning and care with 1,600 more slots for the state’s Early Child-hood Education and Assistance Program – the largest early learning increase in state
history – will bring the high-quality pro-grams that we know work, to all of Wash-ington’s childcare centers and preschools.
A strong start for children leads to more successful schools, stronger families, more self-reliant adults and safer communities.

The following information was compiled from Renton Police Department case reports.
BY DEAN A. RADFORD
An argument over a TV between a 19-year-old Renton man and his former roommate Aug. 25 led to the assault and choking of the roommate at home on Southwest Victoria Street.
The victim and her boyfriend were lying on the bed when the suspect used a large butcher knife to open the door, which was locked.
The victim fell to the floor after the sus-pect ripped her from the bed. He struck her and then choked her as he threw the knife
to the floor.After fleeing, the suspect was arrested in
the 100 block of Rainier Avenue South.He was booked into the SCORE regional
jail for investigation of fourth-degree as-sault. He said the roommate stole the TV from him.
He also was wanted on a Louisiana war-rant for aggravated rape and assault with a firearm. He has been in hiding.
INTRUDER CHASED OFF: A 49-year-old Renton man chased an intruder from his home early on Aug. 23 whom he found standing near his sleeping mother for
whom he cases.In investigating noises downstairs, he
spotted the intruder described as a male, about 5-foot-8, wearing dark clothing. The intruder fled. A man riding a mountain bike matching the description was stopped but denied any involvement.
However, he was booked into jail on a Redmond warrant for vehicle prowl.
The home’s back door had been left unlocked.
THIEF NABBED: It took just 81 seconds for Renton Police officers to stop 34-year-old Renton man who fled at about 11:40 p.m. Aug. 22 in a stolen Honda Accord from a fast-food restaurant on Rainier Avenue.
An officer in an unmarked car ran the vehicle’s license (it was reported stolen out of Bellevue) after the driver drove rapidly backward through the parking lot.
Other officers arrived and the pursuit began. The suspect narrowly missed hitting an officer’s patrol car head-on. Eventually he crashed into a cement pillar at Fred Meyer. “Sir, sir. I didn’t do anything,” he said as he was handcuffed
An officer found a number of “jiggler keys,” which are keys that have been filed down to defeat the ignition and door locks and is typically used by car thieves looking for older imports.
He was arrested for investigation of possession of a stolen vehicle and eluding police.
Because of staffing issues, the suspect was released so he could seek medical attention.
$2,000 BACKPACK STOLEN: A 24-year-old Renton man was walking through a parking lot on Northeast Sunset Boulevard at about 6:30 p.m. Aug. 22 when a man got out of a car, shook hands – and stole his $2,000 Gucci backpack.
The suspect got back into the front pas-senger seat just as the victim was jumping into the passenger side and yelled, “Give me my stuff back.” The passenger told him it was a prank, but the victim didn’t see any cameras.
The car drove off but soon stopped. The two male suspects pushed him to the ground and kicked him. He came to and found himself in a different part of the parking lot.
Inside the backpack were a four Louis Vuitton belts worth $19 each and a “rare” Louis Vuitton belt worth $790.
The victim told officers he didn’t know the attackers but he could ask around and get their names. Eventually, a friend found one of the suspects on Facebook and pos-sibly the other one, too. The victim’s stolen property also was for sale on Facebook.
One of the suspects is a well-known criminal in the Highlands. The investiga-tion was continuing.
A LARGE WET SPOT: The louder the man spoke, the stronger the smell of beer got as officers asked him about a large wet spot about six feet away at a bus shelter on 108th Avenue Southeast and Carr Road on Aug. 22.
A silver can – Coors light beer – was next to the man’s foot and two more cans were found in a small red bag with him. The cans were poured out.
The 62-year-old Kent man was booked into the SCORE regional jail for investiga-
tion of unlawful transit conduct. The inci-dent was initially reported as lewd conduct.
STORE ROBBED: A short thin man wielding a handgun and wearing a mask robbed a convenience store on Maple Val-ley Highway at about 11 p.m. Aug. 22.
The suspect held the handgun to the back of a clerk’s head.
A second man also was with the suspect. A K9 search didn’t find either suspect. The second one had asked two witnesses for a cigarette. The two were last seen running toward the Cedar River.
The gunman was seen casing the store before the robbery.
FIGHT AT MOVIE: A fight broke out between two women watching the movie “Straight Outta Compton” with their dates Aug. 22 at The Landing, with one getting a bloody nose.
The 19-year-old Seattle woman tripped over the 40-year-old as she was walking back to her seat with her refreshments. She apologized. The 40-year-old Renton woman complained about her talking and laughing. And she called her a nasty name.
The 19-year-old responded by throwing her drink into the face of the older woman, who then got on top of her and punched her in the face several times. The younger woman wants to press charges.
An officer warned the 19-year-old that she could have gone to jail for throwing the pop in the woman’s face, if the melee hadn’t occurred and the 40-year-old wanted to press charges.
The report was taken for documentation as breach of peace with mutual combat.
Regal Cinemas gave both parties free tickets to another movie.

A goat stands on hind legs to reach the green leaves overhead. DEAN A. RADFORD, Renton Reporter
BY DEAN A. RADFORD
A herd of hungry goats spent the week chomping away at blackberries and other underbrush on Talbot Hill to help a property owner resolve a code viola-tion.
Tammy Dunakin, owner of Rent-a-Ruminant on Vashon Island, arrived at the half-acre site on Sunday with her traveling crew of 108 goats to find “totally solid,” 5-foot-tall blackber-ries and underbrush.
The goats went to work, living at the site, while Du-nakin stayed in her small trailer nearby.
“The goats are just munching way, doing what they do. They love it. They love their job. It’s good for the goats. It’s good for the planet,” said Dunakin.
Dunakin’s goats were responding to a code viola-tion at 21st Avenue South and Benson Drive near Talbot Elementary School.
The property owner was cited in May for failure to maintain vegetation under 24 inches and time was granted to schedule the goats, according to Timothy Lawless, a code-compliance
officer.“Over-grown vegetation
is seasonal and violations for vacant land increase in the summer,” said Lawless.
The owner also had ob-tained an estimate to have the vegetation removed mechanically.
Dunakin scheduled five days for the goats to do the work, at $725 a day plus a $450 mobilization fee.
Nearly all of Dunakin’s
goats are rescue animals, saved from the slaughter house. “I would rather give unwanted animals a good life than bring a lot of animals into the world,” she said of breeding her own animals.
Her herd totals about 130, including about 15 re-tires who spend their time at the “Old Goat’s Home” on her farm.
She doesn’t feed her goats
much during the working season because their job is to, well, eat. But last winter, her goats ate up 42 tons of hay in five months.
“That’s why they are so good at what they do. They eat a lot,” she said.
“It’s a mystery of goats,” she said, why they can each thorns and other tough veg-etation and not hurt their mouths as soft as hers.
It’s also a myth that goats

can eat anything, although she’s seen them eat up political signs.
Some plants, such as rhododendrons, azaleas and laurels, are toxic to goats and potentially could kill them if eaten, she said. She checks each property beforehand for any plants that might harm her goats.
Dunakin is so busy that
she’s starting to license or franchise her business. Anyone interested would need at least 15 goats; Du-nakin could help find them.
She’s interested in find-ing franchisees in Western Washington, including in South King County.
Information about her business is available online at www.rentaruminant.com

A hazmat alarm inside a Boeing building in south Renton’s industrial area led to the evacuation of a building and the closure of part of Lind Avenue Southwest on Sept. 10.
According to Todd Kelley, communica-
tions specialist for Boeing security and fire, an internal hazmat alarm sounded in the morning at a “laboratory facility.” A total of 41 employees were evacuated, though none required medical attention or were transported to a hospital.
Kelley called the evacuation “precaution-ary” and a “Standard response for these
kind of incidents.”The Renton Fire Department, as well
as many other departments from around King County were on the scene and a team entered the building just after 11 a.m.
Kelley said the plan was for firefighters to secure the building in concentric circles, working their way toward the source of the leak.
The building and surrounding roads
were re-opened by early afternoon.According to Renton Depoty Chief Erik
Wallgren, the spill was a xylene/nitrogen mixture and was contained inside the building with no danger to the surrounding area.

The Museum of Flight celebrates its 50th Anniversary, Saturday, Sept. 19, with an all-day birthday party and 50-cent admission – the original ticket price.
Visitors are encouraged to dress for the party’s 1960s theme. Festivities begin at noon with a nod to the museum’s artist-designed astronaut statue program, Astro-nauts on the Town. Next will be a 1960s cos-tume and fashion contest that is open to all visitors. The audience chooses the winner.
Family activities throughout the day in-clude a Scavenger hunt and a design-your-own-astronaut coloring project. A museum archivist will also be on hand to answer questions about preserving family photos and other personal treasures.
The astronaut artworks have been on display all summer in the Seattle area, with an associated Instagram contest. Contest winners and the final results from the As-tronauts on the Town online auction will be announced at the noon ceremony. All 25 of the statues will be back at the museum and in formation below the M/D-21 Blackbird.
The museum was founded on Sept. 14, 1965. It was originally formed as the Pacific Northwest Historical Aviation Foundation (PNHAF), and was located in some small offices near the Space Needle at Seattle Cen-ter until 1979.
The name was changed to Museum of Flight in 1981, and the doors were opened at its current Boeing Field location in the newly restored Boeing “Red Barn” factory. Now the museum campus spreads across 15 acres with four buildings and one more un-der construction. There’s also the museum’s
Restoration Center and Reserve Collection at Paine Field in Everett.
The museum’s archives include more photos than the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum.
The Museum of Flight is located at 9404 E. Marginal Way S., Tukwila, Exit 158 off In-terstate 5 on Boeing Field halfway between downtown Seattle and Sea-Tac Airport. The museum is open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Admission is $20 for adults, $17 for seniors 65 and older, $17 for active military, $12 for youth 5 to 17, and free for children under 5.

Joint tenancy is a form of ownership in which two or more persons own an asset jointly. Upon the death of one, the ownership of the asset is presumed to pass to the surviving joint owner(s) without probate.
Sometimes joint tenancy is useful. But it may be inconsistent with the provisions of the Will and create uncertainty or conflict after death.
In other cases, joint tenancy can disrupt a plan to minimize estate taxes.
Protect your right to distribute your estate as you intend in a cost-effective manner. Consult an estate planning attorney.

Carl and Marion raised their two children in the Rainier Valley/Renton area. Marion was a loving and devoted mother whose family was the most important thing in her life. She was active in PTA, March of Dimes, Girls Scouts and Cub Scouts, as well as innumerable grade school and high school functions with her children. Marion was a volunteer at the local Veterans Hospital, was a member of Rainier Beach Presbyterian Church and had a lifelong faith in the Lord.

Carl and Marion had a large circle of friends and Marion enjoyed entertaining and hosting elaborate dinner parties. She was a very talented organist and would entertain friends and family with her beautiful organ music.
Marion took up several crafts and became very pro� cient in miniatures, making room scenes in which she created most all of the components of the scenes as well as the display cases. These room scenes are a treasured memory of the love and talent that went into each one.
More than anything, Marion’s life revolved around her family and doing anything she could with and for her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren.
Mom and “Grandma Wink’s” constant love and support will be deeply missed by her family, but her spirit for life will always be a
source of inspiration.1417415

It is harvest time in the vegetable garden so keep picking ripe tomatoes, cucumbers and sum-mer squash. Share fresh produce with your local food bank if you’re lucky enough to have a bumper crop.
The hot summer weather was great for growing tomatoes, basil, peppers and corn but berries and leafy crops suffered in the heat. Cut back the canes of raspberries that are turning brown as these bore berries this summer.
Tie the new green rasp-berry sprouts to horizontal supports as these will bear fruit next summer. Spread a mulch of wood chips, manure, compost or bark chips on top of the soil to keep the weeds out and the moisture in.
Q. Why does the end of my toma-
toes turn black and start to rot? I have grown them in the same sunny spot for several years and never had this problem. P. Enumclaw
A. Sounds like Blos-som End Rot, a
tomato disease that strikes when the soil is lacking in calcium or when watering is inconsistent.
Growing tomatoes in the same spot will suck the cal-cium right out of the soil so be sure to amend your soil this fall with lime or another form of calcium. Blame the hot weather for many cases of Blos-som End Rot this summer as the sun dried the soil quickly in early summer before many gardeners had established the habit of daily watering.
Tomatoes like soil that is consistently moist or they will adapt to somewhat dry soil, but do not like
dry soil followed by lots of water. Next year use mulch on top of the soil to seal in moisture and prevent inconsistent watering.
Q. How do I know when my patty
pan squash are ripe? B, email
A. The unusual shaped Patty
Pan squash is ripe when the color is light yellow and most flavorful when 4 inches or less in diameter. Harvest all summer squash such as zucchini before we are hit with a hard frost.
Q. When should you harvest corn
for the sweetest flavor?
A. Give corn the fingernail test.
Peel back the husk with the corn still on the stalk. Pierce a kernel with a thumbnail. If the liquid is clear, give the corn more time. If it is thick and creamy it is overripe. When the kernel leaks liquid that is the color and consistently of milk you’ve got a sweet harvest.
Flavor is best when picked in the late afternoon and used within one hour of picking. Keep ears cool if you cannot cook them the same day as the har-vest. A patch of corn can be harvested at the peak of ripeness for one to two weeks depending on the weather and the variety.
Q. How do I know when my purple
eggplants are ripe? This is my first summer for grow-ing this beautiful plant. T.P., Kent
A. Eggplant loved our unusu-
ally hot summer. A bigger eggplant is not a bet-ter eggplant however so harvest when the fruit is 4 to 6 inches in diameter. The peak of ripeness is when the skin is shiny and deep purple. If the skin looks dull and the seeds are brown the eggplant is overripe.
Q. How can I make the green
tomatoes turn red before winter? T., Email
A. You can uproot an entire tomato
plant and hang it upside-down by the roots in a ga-rage or shed and as long as the tomatoes stay dry they will continue to ripen.
You can also collect the green tomatoes that are ripe enough to have a darker green star- shaped area on the blossom end of the fruit. Store these indoors with good air circulation in a dry spot.
Green tomatoes do not need sunlight to turn red as long as they have the green star stage.
If you protect your tomato plants from the rain and cold with plastic covers or by growing them
under the eaves of the house they will continue to ripen rather than rot on the vine.

The Hazen boys tennis team may have lost a dozen players from last year’s undefeated league championship team, including a pair of state tournament placers, but that doesn’t mean other teams in the Seamount should look past them.
“In spite of losing 12 players from last year’s team, we look fairly strong and should give teams some great com-petition,” Coach Gail Ellis said in an email. “We have some players who moved up from JV last year who look stronger than ever and have a few who cleared late who should be challenging for those top spots. It’s a good place to be.”
Ellis said top returners to watch this year are Justin Nguyen, SonLam Nguyen, David Vaisar, Alan Li and Ave-lyno Vargas. In addition, Ellis said freshman Sohil Shah is a surprise to watch and has started the season on a winning streak in the No. 4 singles position.
Ellis also said Vaisar has been a “solid” singles player for four years and will be a “mainstay” on the courts this year. Ellis also pointed to the first doubles team of Justin Nguyen and SonLam Nguyen (no relation) as a fun pair to watch both as a team and as individuals.
Hazen tennis strong despite loss of 12 kids
Liberty golf has high hopesBY BRIAN BECKLEY
Last year, the Liberty boys golf team finished second in its league and second at the state tourna-ment, but according to coach Jon Kinsley, it’s not enough.
“We feel we have some unfinished business after coming so close to achiev-ing our goals last year,” he said in an email.
This year, once again, the Patriots expect to compete for the Kingco League championship this fall and the state championship in the spring.
The Patriots lost Dexter Simonds to graduation, but top returners for Liberty this year are Ben Graham, Chase McIntosh and Collin
Fletcher. Kinsely also said Luke Hall and Alex Wilsey were players to watch.
So far this season, the Pa-triots have won all of their matches.
Team off to hot startThe Liberty boys golf team is off to another great
start this season, picking up its fourth win in as many matches Monday with a victory over Lake Washington at the Maplewood Golf Course.
The match was a tight one, with Liberty edging it out by just three strokes, 187-190.
Liberty’s Chase McIntosh led the way for the Pa-triots, finishing in just 35 strokes and earning a first place tie with a golfer from Lake Washington.
Ben Graham finished second with 36 strokes, followed by Luke Hall at 37, tied with a pair of Lake Washington golfers.
Liberty’s Collin Fletcher and Luke Frey rounded out the Patriots’ scorecard with a 39 and a 40, respec-tively, for the win.
Liberty was scheduled to take on Bellevue on Wednesday at Maplewood and travel to Issaquah on Monday. -Brian Beckley

Lindbergh rides running game to emotional victory over White River
BY BRIAN BECKLEY
On a night that began with an emotional tribute to a fallen coach, the Lindbergh Eagles football team
on Thursday raised their record to 2-0 with a hard-fought 28-19 win over the White River
Hornets.The Eagles running game led the
way throughout the game as De-Marco Sauls racked up 103 yards and a touchdown on 16 carries while Korey Solo had three short-yardage touchdowns of his own.
Lindbergh’s defense dominated the first quarter of play, keeping White River off guard and forcing fumbles. The teams traded field position through much of the quarter until quarterback Samuel Nehren hit Dar-rien Sawyer-Lamb on a deep pass that set up Solo’s first touchdown run, a 5-yard grind to put Lindbergh up 7-0.
White River responded in the second quarter, however, scoring on a 7-yard touchdown run and then picking off a Nehren pass to set up a 30-yard scoring run that gave the Hornets a 13-7 lead with 4:49 left in the half.
But Lindbergh kept fighting, mixing passes and runs to move down the field until Solo was able to punch it in from the 2-yard line for his second td of the night and 14-13 Lindbergh lead at the half.
Lindbergh continued to pull away in the third quarter. Just 2:43 seconds into the second half, Sauls broke off a 20-yard touchdown run to put the Eagles up 21-13. Before the quarter was out, Solo picked up his third
touchdown on a 14-yard run, his longest of the day.
White River battled back with a rushing touchdown of their own in the fourth to bring it to 28-19, but the Lindbergh defense was able to hold on for the win.
Prior to the game, the Lind-bergh team dedicated their season to Coach Noah Ramsey Jr., who died unexpectedly in June. Ramsey was 44.
Members of the coach’s family were presented with a signed game ball from last week’s opening-day win at West Seattle, as well as a team hel-met before the entire squad gathered around Ramey’s family for a large group hug.
Ramsey’s finacee Ann Holiday said she was moved by the tribute and said Ramsey loved the team and the play-ers on it.
“I hope his legacy lives on with the kids,” she said.Lindbergh is now 2-0 on the season and will play at
Highline on Sept. 18.

Liberty tops Hazen 28-6BY BRIAN BECKLEY
The Liberty Patriots ruined the Hazen football team’s home opener Friday night, besting the High-landers 28-6 in a match-up at Renton Memorial Stadium.
The teams battled through the first half, play-ing a game of mostly field position, but Liberty was able to put two touch-downs past the Hazen defense to head into the half with a 14-0 lead.
In the second half, Liberty opened up their lead even further. Ha-zen was able to get into the endzone just once to prevent the shutout, but the Patriots defense simply proved too much for the Highlanders.
Hazen falls to 0-2 with the loss. Both losses were to non-league opponents. They played Evergreen at 7 p.m. Thursday at Renton Memorial Stadium.
Liberty moves to 2-0 with the win and play at Interlake on Friday.
Hazen quarterback Michael Mason was under constant pressure from Liberty’s defense. BRIAN BECKLEY, Renton Reporter

The Lady Highlanders soccer team on Tuesday evened up their season record with a pair of wins this week over Prairie and Lindbergh and a draw with Olympic.
On Saturday, Hazen topped Prairie 3-2 at home.
While the teams have faced off multiple times in recent years during the postseason - most recently when Prairie bested Hazen in the first round of last year’s district tour-nament - this was the first regular season match-up between the schools.
Hazen got on the board first with a unas-sisted goal from Amy Warmhoven on a corner kick, 11 minutes into the first half.
Prairie tied it up in the 14th minute, but Hazen went back ahead in the 16th minute on a goal by Madison Taylor, assisted by Allison Sargeant.
Senior captain Taylor Lenton then put through a third goal with about a minute left in the half for a 3-1 Hazen lead at the midway point.
Prairie was able to pull within 1 with a goal about 2 minutes into the second half, but Hazen was able to hold on for their first win of the year.
On Sept. 10, Hazen played to a 1-1 draw with Olympic. Meagan Kelly got the goal for Hazen in that game.
On Tuesday, the team picked up its second win with a 3-0 victory over cross-district rival Lindbergh at Renton Memo-rial Stadium.
Hazen first got on the board late in the first half with a goal from Lenton off an assist from Taylor to give Hazen a 1-0 lead going into the break.
Hazen opened it up a bit in the second half, with Taylor picking up a goal of her own 16 minutes into the second off an as-sist from Madison Kem.
Then, Lenton got a second goal on the day off an assist from Madison Kraemer to seal the win.
“We connected on passes so well to-night,” Coach Ken Matthews said. “Most of Lindbergh’s attack came on counters. They’re a good team, which makes this result really special.”
Hazen is now 2-2-1 on the year. They played at Vashon High School on Wednes-day.
Lindbergh is now 0-1-1 on the season. They play at Renton on Thursday and take on Evergreen on Tuesday, both at Renton Memorial Stadium.

Hazen soccer evens record with pair of wins and a draw
Hazen tennis stays undefeated
The Hazen tennis team moved to 3-0 over-all and 2-0 in the Seamount on Monday with a 7-0 win over Foster.
The Highlanders were dominant as the Bulldogs were unable to win more than two games in any set, though the Foster team was only able to field eight players due to other commitments and issues.
In first singles, Justin Nguyen won 6-0, 6-1, while David Vaisar won 6-0, 6-0 in second singles. In the third singles matchup, SonLam Nguyen won 6-0, 6-0 while in fourth singles Sohil Shah also won 6-0, 6-0.
In doubles play, the team of Nathan Nagel and Alan Li won thier first doubles match 6-0, 6-0, while Tyler Holm and Will Thordar-son won the second double match 6-2. 6-0.
The third doubles match, which was won by Jay VanderZanden and Trevor Skinner 6-0, 6-0, was played as an exhibition.
Hazen is scheduled to play at Highline on Wednesday. -Brian Beckley
Renton falls to Rainier BeachThe Renton Indians started out strong
on Saturday at Rainier Beach but could not hold on as the Vikings put up 14 points in the final frame to win the game 20-14.
Renton opened the scoring in the first quarter with a 14-yard run to paydirt by Drew Olson to give the Indians a 7-0 lead.
In the second, Rainer Beach ran in a touchdown of their own, but missed the extra point attempt and the teams went to the half with Renton up 7-6.
Renton scored again in the third to go up 14-6 as the teams headed into the final frame, but the Vikings picked up two more touchdowns of their own in the fourth quarter to secure the win.
Renton falls to 0-2 on the season with both losses coming from non-league opponents. The Indians host the 2-0 Ken-nedy Catholic Lancers at 7 p.m. Friday at Renton Memorial Stadium.
