When Lance Latimer watches Jer-rell Gillette interact with his peers at the Boys and Girls Clubs of Bellevue's teen center, he sees inspiration.
A senior at Interlake High School, Gillette has been coming to the club for seven years a� er � nding a home at Project Learn in the Hidden Village Apartment Complex. Last weekend, he joined other club representatives from around the state at the Gover-nor's Mansion in Olympia as the Bel-levue representative for Youth of the Year, chosen from the club's roughly 200 members.
When Gillette began coming to
the club, it wasn't to get help with his homework or even make new friends.
It was to � nd an escape. During his freshman year at
Interlake, Gillette found himself in a situation most high school boys dread.
A� er striking up a relationship with a young woman, the two were soon lost in the midst of teenage puppy-love. While things went well initially,
Jerrell Gillette (left) and Lance Latimer, the teen services director at the club, have found inspiration in one another during their time together. JOSH SUMAN, Bellevue Reporter

Residents say it’s do or die time onlight rail detailsBY CELINA KAREIVABELLEVUE REPORTER
Residents along the proposed light rail line turned out in droves Monday night for what many perceived to be their last opportunity to voice the need for neighborhood protection.
� eir comments came as the Bellevue City Council held a public hearing on cost savings for the project.
“� e rami� cations of this decision are very serious and will be felt for a hundred years till the East Link operates, long a� er you may be all gone from public life,” said Arjun Sirohi in a questionnaire addressed to members of the Bellevue City Council, requesting that they heed neighbor-hood concern.
Of the 26 individuals who spoke, many worried aloud that missteps made on the Central Link line in Seattle would be replicated in East Link.
Sirohi, who helped organize a presentation on behalf of his Surrey Downs neighborhood, said this was the last line of defense before the project moved from the blueprint stage to construction. He cited concern a� er last week’s recommendation by the Steering Committee for an at-grade, street-level alignment along 112th.
Using City Council minutes showing early support for grade-separation, and newspaper archives from Rainier Valley, neighbors almost unanimously argued for a trench along 112th and parts of Bellevue Way. Opinion di� ered on the placement of the downtown tunnel station, whether it be above or below ground.
“� is added cost is a small burden to be borne by all of our city taxpayers. � is economic cost pales in comparison to the many tens of millions in lost property value hun-dreds of families will incur due to the excessive train noise that will bathe the homes all day and all night long forever

A pair of explosions near the � nish line of the Boston Marathon brought an abrupt halt to the race and le� three dead and more than 170 injured on Monday.
More than 500 Washington residents were registered for the race, which had more than 23,000 competitors.
� e marathon's o� cial website listed 22 registered runners from Bellevue and an-other two from Medina, including Miguel Aleida, Tracy Bennett, Troy A. Black, Joe Brummitt, Stanley Eng, Joy Gibbs, Colin Hawkes, Mathew Hong, Paul Jones, Harel
Kodesh, Katie Leland, Halina McMaster, Michael McMaster, Erica Nash, Mary Naz-zaro, Tracey Nguyen, Christina O'Brien, Megan Pepin, Scott Phillips, Tom Rogers, Keleta Tesfamariam, Daryl Wendle, Angie Song-Rooney, and Ryan Wuerch.
Reports throughout the week said some 170 people were being treated at Boston area hospitals, with some still in critical condition, including a 9-year-old girl and 10-year-old boy. Another 25 were listed in serious condition. An 8-year-old boy was among the casualties.

Bellevue drivers can get their vehicles checked free for leaks by participating repair shops during the month of April as part of a new regional program called “Don’t Drip and Drive.”
� e free inspection (valued at up to $80) is especially recommended for 2005 or older vehicles. If there is a problem with the vehicle, the driver will receive a coupon for 10 percent o� service (up to $50) to � x the problem, for a total savings of up to $130 between inspection and service.
All participating technicians are mem-bers of the Automotive Service Association (ASA) to ensure they meet ASA standards of quality.
During March, city of Bellevue and Boeing employees participated in a pilot program. Of 80 cars tested at the city of Bellevue, � ve leaks were detected. Of 911 cars tested at Boeing, 100 leaks were detected.
“Dripping � uids cause environmental and safety issues, as well as a� ecting vehicle longevity and reliability,” said Bellevue Stream Team Program Administrator Lau-rie Devereaux.
� e following repair shops in Bellevue are o� ering free visual inspections during April:

Mayor Conrad Lee was among hundreds of world leaders who attended BoAo Asian Forum (BAF) last week in HaiNan, China, an assembly equivalent to the World Eco-nomic Forum in Davos.
BAF, now in its 13th year was attended by such � gures as Bill Gates, Bob Hawke, former Prime Minister of Australia and Admiral Bill Owens. Lee has long encouraged business rela-tions between China and Washington state.
“He always tries promoting Bellevue in the world,” said Mei Young, who founded Era Young to facilitate contacts between Chinese businesses and the city. She’s worked extensively with Lee on projects in the country.
“I think he saw the economy slowing down a couple of years ago, and saw that [we needed] some � nancial injection for our region…And given China’s boom-ing economy…wanted to cultivate that relationship.”
Lee was born in Kunming, China and raised in Hong Kong, before moving to the U.S. in 1958. As a councilmember
he helped initiate a cooperative business agreement between the city of Dalian, China and Bellevue. Two years later he assisted in a similar partnership between the city and Qingdao. He built out those connections with ads on Chinese social media sites. � e recent launch of Belle-vueCN.com, a bilingual website focused on technology leadership in the region, further strengthens that global community.
Young says initial e� orts have focused on showcasing the Eastside. She says the two regions have natural connections given Bellevue’s growing technology sector and many examples of start-up entrepre-neurism. � ough preliminary, e� orts seem to be paying o� . AdSage, China’s largest search engine marketing � rm, now has of-� ces in downtown Bellevue.
Young points also to a demand for real estate in the city, with Chinese nationals sometimes paying as much as $9 million to 12 million and competing for properties.
“As a regional ecosystem, we want [Chi-na], when it thinks about entrepreneurship and start-up businesses to think of Bellevue as a platform,” she says. “…So we can bring capital and business over here.”

The two bombs that killed three people and injured scores of others at the Boston Marathon reminds us there is no easy way to prevent the
evil of terrorism in our country. However, we can make the task of � nding those responsible easier.
Policing a marathon is nearly impossible. By de� ni-tion, it extends more than 26 miles and attracts thou-sands of spectators along the route. � e same holds true for anything that draws crowds of people.
Unfortunately, we o� en make it unnecessarily dif-� cult for law enforcement agencies to do their jobs. A case in point is the issue in Seattle over cameras at the Port of Seattle.
� ere’s no argument the cameras can help the Port better police those critical facilities. Ports not only are targets for terrorism, but also for smuggling.
� e situation in Seattle is that the cameras can swivel, allowing them to point to – and observe – Seattle streets. Some see this as making it easier for Big Brother to watch over people.
Cameras record us at cash machines. Video surveil-lance signs dot countless shops and stores. A number of tra� c intersections have speed or red-light cam-eras. Many buildings have them at their front and rear entrances.
Some call London the most camera saturated city in the world, due, of course, to the “Troubles” that plagued it for years over issues in Ireland. Maybe it was the specter of bombs blowing up all over the city that made residents accept them, but the cameras serve a purpose even today in being able to track criminals who commit a crime and catch them more quickly.
Yes, street cameras need regulations on who can view images and how they will be used, but proper penalties can prevent abuse.
the events in Boston show we’re all vulnerable to attack. Cameras are a proven way to help catch those responsible.

When I was in high school one of my friends launched a group called Random
Acts of Kindness, built on a simple principle of sharing small gestures of humanity with other peers on
campus. It seemed a silly idea to me at the time.
Some days the students stood at the entrance to our cafeteria, o� er-ing hugs to kids bustling between classes. Another morning they placed yellow daf-
fodils on the desks of each teacher. When my friend asked me to help with one of their projects — handing out small care packages before � nal exams — I sco� ed at the idea. How much impact could these silly gestures have? Besides, I didn’t know half the students I was trading glances with.
But in light of recent tragedies — the bombing in Boston and countless other
misfortunes that don’t always command the same media attention — these small acts of kindness seem to take on a new meaning, especially in an increasingly anonymous world. Like many people a� er hearing news of the bombings, I felt a wave of despair.
Social media sites seemed to erupt with the same anguish – us-ers claiming they’d given up on humanity and couldn’t understand the source of such evil. “Where is the love?” shared one friend over Facebook. � at frustration was hardly misplaced, but in addition to the usual fundraisers that crop up around these tragedies, there’s something to be said for such small acts of kindness.
Walking through the University of Washington campus Monday a� er-noon I can remember simmering in my own sadness a� er getting o� the phone with a friend who’d be in the marathon. Rounding the corner, I came across a small cluster of students handing out � owers. One smiled ear-to-ear before passing me a tulip. � e
gesture was so e� ortless and genuine, it caught me o� guard, and put me strangely at ease.
“Have a good day,” she said, as if to a friend.
Empathy can make itself felt in many small ways. It’s understandable and even important to feel moments of grief a� er these events, but I think one of the greatest ways to heal is to remind ourselves of the humanity around us.
I o� en forget it myself. Waiting for the bus at the end of a long day, my usual stance is to plug in my earphones and block out the world, shrugging my shoulders when some-body asks for bus money, even though I know I have at least a dollar to spare in pocket change.
But in an increasingly anonymous world, even a smile can go a long way. And as my high school friend understood, these gestures shouldn’t be limited to moments of tragedy.

It is the perfect setting for our students to learn, and a wonderful place for our faculty and sta� to work.
We feel extremely fortunate to be situated in your backyard, an open and welcoming location where we continue to rise as the global leader in
natural health education. It is because of this supportive environment we are able to achieve all that we have and hope to achieve in the future.

Bellevue Christian School admits students of any race, color, national or ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the
school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national or ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies,
scholarship and loan programs, and athletic and other school-administered programs.
Letter about voting way o� baseDenny Andrew’s March 22 letter accusing the Obama
administration of “promulgating” voting by illegal aliens simply cannot be allowed to pass without comment. Mr. Andrews asks us to remember our own Washington 2004 gubernatorial election as an example of this supposed fraud.
We do remember that election. It was one of the most throughly examined elections in history. I do not remem-ber news of one single illegal alien voting in that election. And it would have been news if it had happened.
I do remember news that a King County councilman’s vote had been disallowed because of a signature irregular-ity. I do remember news about a man in one of the counties north of here who had been faithfully voting for many years, and whose votes had never been counted because of questions about his identity. � e county had never con-tacted him in all those years to get it straightened out. I do remember a story about a well-known conservative activist who passed away shortly before the 2004 election, and whose widower voted her ballot because “he knew what she would have wanted done.”
Also, I remember that Obama was not even president in 2004, George W. Bush was. � e news then was that his at-torney general, Alberto Gonzales, put tremendous pressure on Federal o� cials here in Washington state to stop the recounts and suppress every questioned ballot, all in hopes of creating a win for Dino Rossi and the Republican Party.
Finally, I challenge Mr. Andrews to provide one single rational reason why an illegal alien, a person who came here in secret to work under the table, why would a person like that call attention to themselves, risk a felony charge of voter fraud plus immediate and irrevocable deportation, just to vote in one of our elections.Paul Nicholson, Bellevue
No laughing matterBefore December 26, 2004, in the Indian Ocean, most
people had not seen a major tsunami.
Before May 18, 1980, at Mt. St. Helens, most people had never seen a major lahar.
Scientists are now warning about the dangers of global warming, something capable of killing every member of the human race.
Pretty funny, huh?Gordon Bingenheimer, Bellevue
A budget for us allAt Puget Sound Bank, we work every day with our local
small and medium size businesses who have been realign-ing their budgets and priorities as a result of the reces-sion. � erefore, it is nice to see our state Senate produce a budget that honors the spirit of our Washington small businesses, and keeps the promise made in 2010 that those higher B & O taxes on small businesses would, in fact, be temporary.
It’s not easy to cra� such a budget. It is easier to keep the tax going once we’ve become accustomed to paying it.
A� er � ve years, the state’s income is back to its peak level. Tax collections for 2013 are basically the same as in 2008 at the height of the boom. It is, therefore, appropriate to bring the B & O tax back to the 2010 levels as the this was the original intent.
We are looking forward to this recovery and the return of prosperity to our community and our state. Giving people con� dence in the promises of their government, and giving the middle class and small businesses more of their income to invest in growth and local job creation will create a snowball e� ect that will drive tax receipts up as economic activity blossoms.
� e members of the Senate who have recognized this and cra� ed a budget accordingly deserve our praise and our support – and I am pleased to be counted among the appreciative local businesses saying, “� ank you” to our Senate for putting politics aside and doing the right thing.Jim Mitchell, President & CEO, Puget Sound Bank
Times change, problems don’tAnother example of “what goes around comes
around” is evident in the latest ad campaign for Over-lake Hospital Medical Center, saying “we think getting to a top cardiac center shouldn’t involve 3 freeways and
a toll bridge.” � ose of us ancient enough to have been here during
fundraising to build Overlake Hospital (without “Medi-cal Center”) back in the ‘50s remember the in� uential ad showing an ambulance stuck in tra� c trying to get to Seattle on the only � oating bridge across the lake at the time, also a toll bridge then.
� e number of roads and bridges has changed, but the rest of the message is pretty much the same.Don Riggs, Bellevue
Time for a new judgeSo Judge Ronald Kessler concedes he “might have
made a mistake” in releasing multiple-level-three sex o� ender Ricky Lee Lewis. � e only printable response I can think of is, “Ya think?” � en Kessler compounds his ridiculous answer by saying, “No evidence was present-ed to him that Lewis might re-o� end.” It only took Lewis six days to � nd an unfortunate 18-year-old victim.
I can understand why Prosecutor Dan Satterburg didn’t want to comment. It ba� es me how Judge Kessler could do any worse in protecting the public. Look at the charging documents, which apparently Kessler didn’t deign to view. It’s all there. Kessler also struck down the death penalty for police murderer Christopher Monfort because Satterburg didn’t “do more” to � nd possible mitigating circumstances for Monfort. Like what? Aver-sion to the color blue?
Judge Kessler says that keeping everyone in jail as long as possible is the “easy way out.” I will bet that the victim in this case wishes that Kessler had taken the “easy way out “ with Lewis.
Kessler should not be a judge. He should resign. Or be removed. Failing that he should de� nitely be voted out at the next election.Denny Andrews, Bellevue

Looking out the window as rain pelts our mossy lawn and weeds sprout in the garden, I see few reminders of our
week in Hawaii. I’ve eaten all the chocolate-covered, pineapple-shaped short-bread cookies, and given away most of the colorful emery boards fashioned like tiny sur� oards.
From time to time I still pull out the dozen paper umbrellas — not all from mai tais — and spread them on the table
as an impromptu centerpiece for dinner guests. One day I set them out at a Star-bucks to bring a touch of the islands to a friend.
But the memories of tropical plants, daily temperatures a predictable 80 degrees, and a cerulean ocean have faded…until Reyn Spooner rides into the room on my husband’s back.
Spooner may not be a household name for most people, but it has become one for us. Spooner is both a person and a brand.
Reyn McCullough got his start in the men’s clothing business by opening a store on Catalina Island in the ‘40s, and ended
up owning his own Hawaiian garment factory, which produced shirts and shorts for sale around the world. Ruth Spooner was a woman with a sewing machine. He acquired her business in 1962. � e Hawai-ian shirt business took o� when Reyn and others in the clothing industry persuaded local employers to allow their workers to wear casual dress once a week. � us the birth of Aloha Friday.
Having hung out at bus stops in down-town Honolulu on days other than Fridays I can testify that Aloha shirts rule.
On our vacation, we discovered the Spooner brand by accident, when we came upon Bailey’s Antiques and Aloha Shirts while searching for a restaurant. My husband pawed through hundreds of the 15,000 assorted vintage shirts hanging on racks in the store and a few hours later chose one. His purchase made room for the store owner to move in one more shirt from the collection of 1,500 the clerk told us are in storage.
� e appeal of Spooner’s shirts is that none feature lines of naked hula girls danc-ing across the wearer’s belly over a back-ground of neon palm trees. � e woodblock print designs are classy and the colors subdued. � ink Brooks Brothers with � ow-ers, � sh, and waves.
My husband ordered two more shirts online. He won’t have to wait for Fridays to wear them. Casual dress is the norm in the Northwest. And he can keep Hawaii alive in our imaginations by wearing one every casual weekday.

Treehouse, a local nonpro� t organization serving youth in foster care, has rebranded the the organization, including a new visual identity and program expansion focus-ing on improving education outcomes for foster youth.
Treehouse’s goal for 2017 is for foster kids in King County to graduate high school at the same rate as their peers.
According to a recent study published by the Washington State Institute for Public Policy (WISPP), the average graduation rate for foster students in King County is approximately half the rate of their peers and fewer than two percent will earn a college degree.
To create a change in the graduation rate of this magnitude, Treehouse will double the number of youth it serves to more than 800 middle and high school students in 17 school districts by 2017.
As part of the rebrand supporting the graduation goal, Treehouse has developed
a new, user-friendly website to enable the community to access detailed program infor-
mation and engage with or help support the organization. In addition, Treehouse has also developed a new logo.
� e new visual identity and program expansion was announced at Treehouse’s largest annual fundraising event, the Champions for Foster Kids Luncheon, where the organization’s patrons donated more than $1 million in support of the graduation goal.
Since early 2011, Treehouse has secured more than $500,000 in investments from corporate and foundation partners in sup-port of its goal

� e world’s largest provider of web hosting and domain names, Go Daddy, has hopes of expanding its company to the Northwest. But � rst executives need to pick a central location: Bellevue or Kirkland.
Go Daddy already has a temporary location at Carillon Point.
International Senior Vice President James Carroll described the Eastside as a “hotbed for talent. � is is really where people want to live and it’s where people will live and raise families.”
While Carroll couldn’t disclose how many new employ-ees the company is seeking to hire, he said the presence of big tech-companies such as Google, Microso� , Ama-zon and eBay, assures him of the Internet and web talent around the area.
� e permanent expansion, wherever executives may choose, is expected to open in June, according to a Go Daddy press release.
“I think what we’re looking at is to be very aggressive, both in terms of � nding the right talent and � nding the right location,” said Auguste Goldman, chief of people of-� cer at Go Daddy.
In addition to garnering Washington’s technological tal-ent, Go Daddy plans to make the Eastside location a place to kick-o� international products and services.
“Looking at the history of companies like Microso� in the region, they’re really one of the � rst companies to go international in a big way,” said Carroll.
Goldman said their Eastside location will be the head-quarters around some of Go Daddy’s niche products and
services they intend to develop.Go Daddy is a private company that is backed by KKR,
Silver Lake Partners and Technology Crossover Ventures. “� e reason to join Go Daddy is simple … you can make
a di� erence at a company that is hell-bent on changing the world,” CEO Blake Irving said in a press release. “We have the opportunity to help small businesses in ways no one else in the space is doing right now.”
Before Irving took over as Go Daddy CEO in January, he was the former chief product o� cer at Yahoo! and a long-time Microso� executive. In February, he expanded o� ces in Silicon Valley; acquired M.dot, a mobile application that allows users to create a website from a smart phone; and hired a slew of veteran executives from Microso� , Google, Amazon and eBay, among others.
� ree of the eight new hires are located at the temporary Kirkland location and are former Microso� employees. � at includes Arnold Blinn, chief architect; Rick Eames, the senior vice president of design and user experience; and Scott Isaacs, distinguished engineer.

A Bellevue woman died after an avalanche swept her away in the Snoqualmie Pass area on Saturday, April 13.
The woman was identified as Dr. Joy Yu, a naturopathic physician who worked at the Creekside Center for Integrative Medicine in Bellevue.
The accident happened as a group of hikers was caught in an avalanche
while they were snowshoeing. The avalanche separated the group. All were able to self rescue with the ex-ception of Yu.
While not part of the group, Yu was walking nearby. Following the ava-lanche, the group realized the woman was missing. They searched and found her about 45 minutes later and dug her out of approximately 5 feet of
snow. The woman was not moving and was somewhat conscious.
Search and rescue teams hiked in for more than two hours to reach the group. The victim was loaded on a sled and rescuers hiked her out through blizzard like conditions.
At the base, medic’s confirmed that the woman had died.

Gillette soon found himself cut off from all communication with her, without explana-tion.
To his dismay, her mother's disapproval was the primary reason for the change and left him unable to gain any closure to the situation.
Things went from bad to worse when he heard the devastating news the girl had com-mitted suicide.
"I thought I was 100 percent to blame," Gillette said.
Deep depression followed as Gillette tried to process the events and his feelings, but in-stead began internalizing the anguish. While his classmates adjusted to the newfound challenges of high school socially and in the classroom, Gillette dealt with a far more emotionally charged set of issues.
Eventually, he found himself at the Boys and Girls Clubs of Bellevue at Hidden Vil-lage, where he and his family lived. While his initial motivation was seemingly simple, the results have been anything but ordinary for both Gillette and the club.
"I just really connected with the staff mem-bers," he said. "They did whatever they could to make me feel comfortable."
The connection built slowly as staff members showed Gillette places he could listen to music and eventually participate in recreational sports around the club. Before long, he found himself integrated into the programming and eventually, a leader among his peers.
In the years since emerging from depres-sion, Gillette has become a fixture at the Boys and Girls Club Teen Center, or The Club as it is affectionately known to area youth and staffers. He is a member of the Keystone Group, a leadership-focused sounding board
for club youth that also runs The Club’s student-store. The funds from sales act not only as a fundraising tool for conventions around the country, but also provides valu-able lessons in business and gives younger members something to aspire to.
Lance Latimer, who began with the Boys and Girls Clubs in 2001 and has been in his current role as Teen Services Manager at The Club since 2008, said Gillette has become every bit the role model that club administra-tion hopes to develop and the ideal selection as Bellevue's Youth of the Year.
"The younger kids look up to the Keystone Group, but especially Jerrell," he said. "They want to know how to get to that level."
With his own story of heartache, growing out of tragedy only a few years ago, Gillette said his hope is to show other kids who may be struggling with school, their social life or even tragedy, that there is still a network of support available.
"I'm not here to make their choices," he said. "I want people to say I'm easy to talk to."
While he wasn't selected to continue in the Youth of the Year competition at the regional level (the competition goes all the way to a national stage, with the president announcing the Boys and Girls Club Youth of the Year at a special event), Gillette said the past few years have given him valuable perspective.
He will use that when he continues his life after high school by enlisting in the Marine Corps, where he plans to study logistics and also take business classes online. His ultimate goal is to be a self-managed music artist, creating music with the same kind of positive message and soulful vibe that helped him when he was at his lowest point.
"I just want to help people the way music helped me," he said. "There's always that chal-lenge."

into the future,” said Joe Rosmann of Building a Better Bellevue. “This is the disaster you told citizens they would never have to incur as you promised extraordinary mitigation. Trenches are that extraordi-nary mitigation.”
A trench along 112th would amount to a $6-11 million increase, though neighbors agreed the added cost was worth it, given the sound mitigation, improved safety and greater preserva-tion of property values that would follow. A trench, said Sirohi, offered the highest ridership (51,500 compared to 51,000 for at-grade), shortest travel time (10 minutes as opposed to 11), lesser vibration and noise, and the better of two impacts on Surrey Downs Parkland (0.6 acres compared to 1.4 lost to at-grade).
Neighbors said that while sentiment has shifted, the
original Memorandum of Understanding explicitly called for an under-crossing buoyed by council support. They also pointed to an alarming rate of accidents along Central Link’s align-ment — stories of individu-als suffering life-threatening injuries after being struck by a train, of trains derail-ing in Seattle and accounts of vehicle collisions. Rail-grade crossing collisions, affirmed neighbors, citing FTA reports, produce the highest number accidents each year – 54 percent.
The council has spent the less several weeks in study sessions, assessing the additional noise impact of above-ground bells and whistles used to notify vehicles and pedestrians of an approaching train. Designed to be audible, early estimates place them at 72-80 decibels, depend-ing on the hour of the day. Residents of Enatai and Surrey Downs noted the absence of such devices presented yet another argu-ment in favor of the trench.
The council will make a decision on cost sav-ings options next Monday, April 22. Sound Transit will make a final decision at its meeting April 25. For full commentary, visit the city’s website and video feed of the public hearing at bellevuewa.gov/council-agendas-2013.htm.

Students sparred in a video game tournament March 13 at Bellevue Col-lege to raise funds and awareness for the school’s Autism Spectrum Navigators (ASN) program. Now in its second year, the tournament raised roughly $8,000, enough says program manager Sara Gardner, to expand in the fall.
“Because of myself and my own college experiences, I know firsthand how difficult it can be and what type of troubles you run into,” said Gardner, who identifies herself and her son as autistic. “Our program is the only one in the country that doesn’t charge families for these services, and families are thrilled with that.”
Autism is a complicated spectrum disorder that doesn’t look the same in any one person. According to the Cen-ters for Disease Control and Prevention, 1 in 50 U.S. schoolchildren are believed to live with some form of autism, amounting to about 1 million American children.
“Symptoms can vary,” says Jeff Har-man, a student of ASN who also spoke at the Saturday event, “from people who can’t talk or function in everyday life, to intelligent and capable people. It’s a very stereotyped disorder.”
Young people diagnosed with autism typically struggle more in the class-room, excelling at times and then falling behind at others. Many don’t know to ask for help, says Gardner. So in 2011, Bellevue College created the ASN, hop-ing to change such academic outcomes. A two-credit course, ASN meets once a week to offer mentoring and support. Each quarter offers a new topic. This spring it’s self-advocacy.
Now in its second year, Gardner says she’s seen incredible successes. Eighty-five percent of students completed the year with a C minus or higher. The pro-gram also cultivated retention rates of up to 95 percent, compared to a control group’s 67 percent, with an average GPA of 2.1.
“The things you can’t quantify are the self-confidence that we’ve seen
really grow in students,” says Gardner. “[Students] holding their shoulders back and reaching out to people and com-municating.”
Harman agrees. A member of ASN since it began as a pilot, he says his confidence has grown immeasurably: “I have a bunch of friends in the program now, and I’m also more organized.”
Gardner attributes such successes to the program's commitment not to “fixing” students, but to equipping them with skills that will help them in the classroom and beyond. What began as a group of 17, has since grown to 50.
And with the money raised Saturday, Gardner says she expects to take on 75 students next fall. As for Harman, with the skills learned at ASN, he hopes to transfer to Central Washington Univer-sity where he’ll study filmmaking.
“I can’t speak for other students,” says Harman, “but [ASN] has personally helped me a lot.”

A romantic spring is awaiting us with a large quantity of tempting pastel accessories. At this time last year we were talking about canvas and leather, but that’s certainly not the case this season. Now we’re being seduced by paler tones that feel like a breath of fresh air and sweep a little bit of new-leaf innocence into our lives.
Ice-cream cones, cupcakes, and candy � oss: accessories are making mouths water and leave us hankering for more. You can get started with a chic little pastel leather pouch. Montblanc has set the ball rolling with a delicious collection entitled “La Vie de Boheme”, which includes some amazing pieces bearing lizard-skin motifs.
Let your goal be to introduce a few small touches to your out� t here and there and gradually replace immaculate white with shades inspired by a baby’s layette. Above all, don’t be afraid to mix di� erent colors, as all shades of pastel will be the center of attention this season.
If you feel like standing out from the crowd, why not highlight a brilliant fuchsia blouse with a candy pink shoulder bag? Pastels are not new in the fashion palette, so it can be a lot of fun to dress them up with a contemporary approach. You can also create an elegant look by blending di� erent tones of a single color. For example, blend aqua blue with powder blue, canary yellow with vanilla yellow, and deep purple with lilac mauve.

BU JOSH SUMANBELLEVUE REPORTER
When Bellevue College student Kyle Whitney and his basketball team take the court this week in a tournament featuring top teams from around the country in Lou-isville, Ky., he will realize a lifelong dream.
An athlete for most of his life, including his prep days at Mount Si High School, Whitney always saw himself on the biggest stages competitive athletics had to o� er.
But he never could have imagined how he would get there, or what it would look like when he did.
A� er a junior year at Mount Si that had him thinking of a future on the baseball diamond, Whitney nearly lost much more than his baseball career.
Feeling the invincibility that characteriz-es both teenagers and fans of performance automobiles, Whitney was in his new sports car, racing another vehicle on I-90 through the Eastside corridor when he lost control of the vehicle. Without a seatbelt and traveling 120 miles per hour, he was ejected from the cabin, landed in the inter-state and was paralyzed on impact.
Coping with a life that would be drasti-cally di� erent in nearly every way imagin-
able was predictably di� cult for the then-teenager, and the pain was compounded by the belief his life in competitive sports was done.
“I thought, there goes all my dreams in athletics,” he said.
Intense months of recovery followed, and Whitney eventually graduated from high school and continued his life in the Snoqualmie Valley, albeit in a wheelchair.
While he had been active throughout his youth and an athlete in high school, it was that same desire for competition that kept him away from wheelchair athletics. He played billiards, where his chair provided no disadvantage and actually le� him at eye-level with his shots, but eventually wanted a more physically involved activity.
Like many wheelchair athletes, he quickly moved from spectator to partici-pant at a basketball tournament in Seattle a� er expecting to merely watch and gain an introduction.
“I thought I was pretty good,” Whitney said. “I realized really quick I wasn’t that great.”
Whitney said along with regaining his passion for athletics, playing wheelchair basketball has helped him build connec-
tions in the adaptive technology commu-nity, especially at the University of Wash-ington’s Student Activities O� ce.
“It’s really opened up a lot of resources,” he said. “I’ve learned a lot about traveling, the facilities and how to deal with those things in a wheelchair.”
He also found himself again part of a team.
A� er learning the nuances of the game, things like chair positioning and angles on the court, Whitney began playing more
seriously and eventually found himself on a team from Seattle Adaptive Sports, an organization that facilitates a variety of wheelchair teams. � at group has played in tournaments around the region to earn its spot in Louisville this week, where the top 25 wheelchair basketball teams from around the country will be waiting.

Bellevue alum Savard near top of SCIAC for Claremont-Mudd-Scripps
Bellevue alum Katie Savard, who helped the Wolverines to the only two state tournament appearances in school
history in 2010 and 2011, is � � h in the Southern California Intercollegiate Ath-letic Conference in batting average for Claremont-Mudd-Scripps and leads the league in slugging percentage in confer-ence games.
Savard has tallied 342 hits in 35 games, including three home runs and 11 doubles. Her 32 RBI are also near the league-leaders.
Claremont-Mudd-Scripps is 26-10 on the year and has won its last six games.
Wolverines in middleof KingCo baseball hunt
Coach Pete Wilkinson and his Bellevue baseball team sit in second place in the 3A KingCo standings and only a half-game behind league leader Mount Si.
� e Wolverines topped Mercer Island 6-3 to begin the week before facing Sammamish on Wednesday.
Nolan Watson has been the catalyst on the mound, sporting a 3-1 record in � ve appearances with a pair of
complete games to his credit. Fellow senior Teddy Roy has done his share as well with a .41 ERA over 17 in-nings.
A showdown with Lake Washington, which sat at 5-2 in league play and a half-game back of the Wolverines in the standings, is set for Friday at Kirkland’s Peter Kirk Park.
Totems in middle of conference pack on soccer � eld
Sammamish has had its share of recent success in boys soccer, making the 3A state tournament four times in the past decade, including a quarter� nal appearance in 2011, and the current group of Totems looks poised to write its own postseason chapter.
Without a loss in its last four games, which included wins over Lake Washington and Bellevue and ties with Mercer Island and Interlake, Sammamish is well-situated to earn the conference’s berth to the postseason, which is shared with fellow 2A competitor LW.
Miguel Hernandez leads the team in points with nine, just in front of Laureano Villasenor, who has a team-best four goals on the year.
� e Totems will face conference front-runners Liberty and Juanita before again meeting the Kangs in the � nal game of the season.
Whichever of the two � nishes higher in the KingCo standings will head to a 2A district playo� . Sammamish is 3-3-3 in KingCo games and 3-5-3 overall.
Bellevue sits just behind the Totems in the standings, at 3-6 in the conference, and is in a tie with Interlake. New-port is 3-2-1 in conference play in 4A and is in � � h place, a half-game ahead of Bothell.
WIAA Rep. Assembly voting ends today for 2013 amendments
� e WIAA Representative Assembly, composed of administrators from around the state, will conclude vot-ing on the proposed amendments for 2013 today a� er beginning on April 1.
� e docket includes a handful of administrative items but the most discussed proposal revolves around changing the policy for out-of-season football practices and place a � rm number, 20 practices, on the amount of time a coaching sta� can have contact with its team.
� e amendment also proposes teams be allowed only 10 days of contact during the o� season, which would be a shi� from what several teams do currently.

Bothell when he is � nished at BC, said the group also has hopes of integrating wheelchair basketball into the programming at the student IMA at the Univer-sity of Washington.
A� er an upcoming on-campus demonstration of
wheelchair basketball for students and others inter-ested in adaptive technol-ogy, he and the team are hopeful of bringing it to the existing intramural league, which includes sports like � ag football and able-bod-ied basketball.
A few schools around the country, including the University of Arizona, have full-� edged wheelchair bas-ketball teams that represent
the school and are even able to give scholarships.
“UW Medicine is one of the leaders in the nation in spinal cord injuries and re-habilitation,” Whitney said. “I’ve always wanted to go to UW and eventually we want to play for them.”
While the sport is mostly recreational in the United States, Europe has a profes-sional league and Whitney said he has met players who
have made a living play-ing wheelchair basketball overseas. His own goals are much closer to home at UW, but Whitney said the inspiration he has gained from meeting others in his situation who have thrived has made the entire experi-ence worthwhile.
“I have learned to see the world di� erently,” he said. “� ere are not a lot of things you can’t do.”

� e Bellevue High School drama department is in the midst of prepping their spring musical. But for the 37 cast and crew members participating in this production, there’s a lot more at stake than an auditorium full of rowdy high school students. In addition to performing for their classmates this May, the group is preparing for a once in a lifetime trip to Scotland in August - where they’ll perform at the Edin-burgh Festival Fringe.
Established in 1947, the festival takes place annually in Scotland’s capital. Rec-ognized as the largest arts festival in the world, the Fringe is a showcase for the performing arts, particu-larly theatre and comedy.
Drama Director David Kline said the students auditioned for the current production - a Science Fiction re-telling of Wil-liam Shakespeare’s “� e Tempest” called “Return To � e Forbidden Planet” - in September. With the excep-tion of a few breaks, the students have been working on the musical ever since.
Out of more than 2,300 applicants, Bellevue’s drama department is one of just 33 schools in North America invited to perform at the festival this year.
Although Bellevue’s program has made a name for its original material over the past 10 years, Kline said the festival suggested they not perform original mate-rial during their � rst year. It’s for this reason, among others, Kline selected “For-bidden Planet” for his class to perform.
“It combines a variety of skills these students have to o� er,” Kline said. “Music, language, dance and a sense of humor.”
In preparation for the festival, organizers also suggested participants take their show on tour to bet-ter prepare for unfamiliar venues and audiences.
� is was something that came second nature for the drama students at Belle-vue, who’ve been working, more or less, as a traveling troupe.
Citing the absence of a proper performing arts center at Bellevue - it has been under construction for the past three years - Kline said his students have performed at every high school in the district.
Expanding on the unknown factors that may arise at the festival, Kline didn’t seem worried. In fact, he emphasized the adaptability of his actors, explaining they’ve used hallways and parking lots as rehearsal space in the past.
Bellevue’s new Perform-ing Arts Center opens May 1; “Return To � e Forbid-den Planet” will open there on May 14 at 7:30 p.m.
In addition to their four performances at the festi-val, Kline said the students will have a number of sight-seeing opportunities during the 12-day trip.
Locations on their agenda include the Edin-burgh and Stirling castles, the Scottish Highlands and the café where J.K. Rowling wrote the Harry Potter series. � ey’ll also be spending a few days in London, where they will see a production at the West End and tour Shakespeare’s Globe � eatre.
Kline said the experience of seeing his students per-form on an international stage is what he is looking
forward to most about the trip.
And if festival organiz-ers like what they see, it’s likely they’ll ask Bellevue to return in the future.
