Overlake Hospital ready for health-care change BY MARY JEAN SPADAFORA Bellevue Reporter
The recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling on health care June 28 won’t be an issue at Overlake Hospital Medical Center. The facility already was moving to implement the law’s requirements, hospital officials say. “We’re going to take care of people – that’s what our function is,” said Overlake
spokesperson, Kipepeo Brown. “From our standpoint, and many of the hospitals in Washington state in particular, we were already moving towards some of those regulations.” The court’s ruling declaring most of the Affordable Care Act constitutional will enable the state to enroll every individual in Medicaid or private insurance starting in 2014.
The Medicaid coverage, particularly, will be a help to Overlake. Like all other hospitals across the country, Overlake sees many uninsured patients who use the emergency room for medical care. When they can’t pay, the hospital is stuck with the bill. More insured patients means hospitals will be reimbursed for the treatment given in emergency rooms and other urgent care. However, concerns remain for Overlake.

Downtown sewer projects to begin July 9 Bellevue is planning four downtown sewer projects in July and August to meet the growth needs of Bellevue’s Central Business District. Over the next 20 years, Bellevue’s downtown population is projected to increase by 9,000 residents and the downtown commercial sector is predicted to expand by 28,000 jobs. Crews will remove existing pipe and replace it with new, larger pipe, install new pipe to divert flows to a pipe with higher capacity, or repair existing pipe. All businesses will be open during construction, and access will be provided where safely possible. Residents and businesses can expect construction noise and traffic impacts, which will include road and lane closures and detours around the work sites. Areas scheduled for the work are: · Main Street and 106th Avenue NE: Work will begin Monday, July 9, and will take approximately one week to complete. · NE Second Street and 112th Avenue: Work will begin Monday, July 16, and should take three to four days to complete. · NE Eighth Street and Bellevue Way: Work will begin Friday evening, Aug. 17,
Event honors pets, raises $1,500 to fight cancer BY JOSH SUMAN Bellevue Reporger
Dogs and dog-lovers from around the Eastside came to the Issaquah Highlands Bark Park on June 30 for Bark for Life, an American Cancer Society event to raise money for awareness and research of the disease. Many of the event-goers had a pet that had previously been stricken with cancer, including Kelly Hinderberger of Bellevue, who was on hand with her dog Charlie honoring a previous pet that passed from cancer. “It was pretty tough,” Hinderberger said. “We thought this would be a nice way to remember our old dog and start a new tradition.” Along with exercise stations and plenty of room to roam, the event featured a demonstration from the King County Sheriff ’s Office K-9 Unit, a “smooch booth” for dogs, booths and vendors with dog treats and foods, clothing and even specialized dog-friendly recreation like hikes and water sports. One of the local businesses displaying their services was Loving & Gentle Dog Grooming, which specializes in small dog care. Owner Rebecca Roase began in the dog grooming industry 35 years ago as a teenager and has been putting her passion for canines to work ever since. A small dog owner herself, Roase’s home-based business in Issaquah offers owners of small dogs the assurance they need. “I’ve always loved dogs and small dogs

Luminita Sarbu, the veterinary oncology specialist that has helped treat Tully, said events such as Bark for Life are important for both pets and pet owners.

PSE completes Ardmore Substation Puget Sound Energy has completed its new Ardmore Substation and power from the facility should be flowing to homes, businesses and schools of 22,000 customers in the Overlake area of Bellevue and Redmond. The facility is located at 15335 NE 24th St. in Redmond. Siting the new substation involved numerous meetings with residents in both Bellevue and Redmond. The final site is south of Northeast 24th Street and west of Bel-Red Road. The spot is the former location of a Bank of America branch. PSE’s traditional substation footprint was too large to fit on a number of properties so several technology and design innovations were incorporated to save space without sacrificing reliability. The work involved more than 165 employees from multiple departments, more than 20 partnering companies, and several consultants and contractors. “With a tight time line, it’s always a challenge to get so many entities to work together,” said Scott Tongue, the project’s substation foreman, “but it was a fun project for the substation department getting to work with new technology and equipment and we did what we were best at, building substations.” The soon-to-be-completed 50 Megavolt-ampere (MVA) capacity substation will initially serve about 22,000 customers and can be expanded to serve 160 MVA of load
The front of Ardmore substation uses a combination of landscaping and an artistic architectural wall to blend in with the community’s future urban vision. (enough for about 60,000 -70,000 customers). It integrates the latest technology and innovative design.
SUBSTATION HIGHLIGHTS ■ Three times the capacity at half the size. The substation uses gas insulated switchgear technology to achieve a very small footprint without sacrificing capacity or reliability. ■ The Ardmore substation is smart grid-enabled. If a piece of equipment fails, the substation can automatically reroute power to restore service to the affected customers. This is a first for PSE. ■ The Ardmore substation is the first installation of “Flat SCADA” (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) architecture at PSE. This design eliminates multiple database configurations, redundant devices, a lot of redundant wiring and reduces database errors. It also allows for remote HMI (Human Machine Interface) access. Viewing the HMI remotely allows personnel to view and analyze substation status, alarms, and operations before sending workers to the site. ■ The substation includes multiple artistic design features, the result of collaboration with the jurisdiction and community. The theme of “energy and motion” is seen throughout its design, from the landscaping, architectural fences and walls to the artistic landmark transmission pole in the front of the station. More than 11,000 plants that have been planted into soil filled bags will grow together to form a strong vegetation mesh and earth retaining wall.
Grant to make solar power installation cheaper, easier Bellevue has received a federal grant to make solar panel installation easier and cheaper by establishing consistent standards and processes for all utility types and jurisdictions. Solar power can generate a considerable amount of electricity for a household, but the high cost of the hardware, permitting and installation means only a dozen ho-
meowners in Bellevue have installed solar panels on their roofs so far. Bellevue has teamed up with the state Department of Commerce, local utilities and the cities of Edmonds, Ellensburg and Seattle to reduce administrative barriers to residential and small commercial solar panel installations by streamlining, standardizing and automating administrative processes.
Known as the Evergreen State Solar Partnership (ESSP), the team was one of 22 nationwide to receive a grant for the federal Department of Energy’s Rooftop Solar Challenge. The ESSP received $523,800. The Bellevue City Council on June 18 approved Bellevue’s acceptance of its $65,000 share of the grant. The grant requires Bellevue to provide up to $10,000 in in-kind
contributions. The ESSP aims not only to shorten permitting processing turnaround times, but also to establish online permitting for solar panel installation. The Development Services Department plans to expand online review to all construction, fire protection, right of way, utility connection and land use actions by May 2013.

Hopelink gets light-rail grant
Hopelink and Futurewise have received a $20,000 federal grant to help ensure that traditionally underserved communities are engaged in the planning and development process for Sound Transit’s East Link corridor project. The 14-mile line will connect Seattle, Mercer Island, Bellevue and Redmond beginning in 2023. The funding – through the Growing Transit Communities Equity Grant Program – will help community organizers lay the groundwork to educate and involve low-income families, people of color and immigrant and refugee communities. The funding also will pilot test a grassroots strategy to reach out to underserved communities near the Overlake stations and update them about East Link corridor planning effort. Hopelink will receive $15,000 directly and serve as the fiscal sponsor for another $5,000 awarded to Futurewise, a statewide public interest group working to promote healthy communities and cities. Also included in the partnership are the cities of Redmond and Bellevue. The Growing Transit Communities partnership is funded by a grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Sustainable Communities Regional Planning Grant Program.

Health-care ruling doesn’t fix system
Bark for Life shows that dogs help make us human
C
T
he U.S. Supreme Court’s upholding of most of President Obama’s health-care law doesn’t end the discussion of health care in this country. Fixing the system has a long way to go. The court’s 5-4 decision was somewhat of a surprise. Conservatives had argued that Congress could not use the concept of interstate commerce to force everyone to buy health insurance. The court’s majority decision essentially agreed with that. However, Chief Justice John Roberts and the four liberals on the court said the government’s move amounted to a tax – and that is something well within the power of Congress. People still won’t have to buy health insurance, but they will face a tax liability if they don’t. As much as the health-care debate has centered on legal arguments, the fact remains that our health system is flawed. The new law will fix some of that, but we still have a long, long way to go. Most Americans have health coverage provided by large employers. They won’t see major changes. The real impact is for the poor. There are 32 million people in this country who are shut out from having health care. Either they are too poor to afford it or they are so sick that a private insurance company won’t provide them coverage. The law will change much of that, by expanding Medicaid – the federal/state program that helps the poor – and by making Health Benefit Exchanges available where people can compare costs and benefits of health insurance programs. However, these improvements come at a cost – or at least a concern. Making sure all people have health insurance means more people will be seeing physicians. Today, there are not enough doctors to treat all these new, potential patients. The health-care debate will continue – it is, after all, a presidential election year. But if it’s done nothing else, the Supreme Court’s decision has forced politicians and the public to face this issue. That, at least, is a start. – Craig Groshart, Bellevue Reporter

County committed to Sammamish Watershed BY MARK ISAACSON
T
he June 22 Bellevue Reporter guest column, “Caught between salmon and common sense” by Dr. Martin Nizlek touched on several important issues regarding stewardship of Lake Sammamish and the Sammamish River. King County is actively working with Sammamish Watershed communities to address lake level issues and early results are positive, but first let me share how we got to this point. As Dr. Nizlek Mark Issacson noted, the Sammamish River was reconstructed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in 1964 to protect the Sammamish River Valley from spring floods and to keep the lake from rising too high. This work included straightening the river, reconstructing its banks, building levees and reconstructing the lake outlet with a new channel and weir. Overall, the flood control project has performed well, preventing nearly all flooding in the Sammamish River Valley and significantly reducing the height and fluctuation of lake levels that occurred prior to 1964. However, throughout the Sammamish Watershed, extensive increases in urban development since 1964 have resulted in higher flows into Lake Sammamish and the Sammamish River.
Willows and other plants along the channel edge were allowed to grow in a attempt to cool water temperatures and improve habitat for fish species listed as endangered under the federal Endangered Species Act that had been significantly impacted from alterations to the river. A few years ago, a group of citizens led by Dr. Nizlek correctly suggested that King County do a better job of maintaining the outlet channel below the lake to ensure lake elevations remained low. This led to last year’s implementation of an eight-point action plan that included commitments for more frequent vegetation mowing and trimming, removing some invasive vegetation, investigating the potential for sediment removal, and evaluating a long-term modification of the outlet channel to improve lake level control and habitat conditions. After completing the first year of this action plan, we observed substantial improvements in lake levels this past winter. This summer, we will be working in partnership with the cities of Redmond and Bellevue to study the feasibility of long-term improvements. King County remains committed to working with the community on addressing any concerns in the Sammamish Watershed.
Mark Isaacson is director of the Water and Land Resources Division in King County’s Department of Natural Resources and Parks.

outure apparel, holistic and organic food and snacks, adventurous getaways on the water and in the mountains: sounds like an event perfectly suited for the discerning tastes of the Greater Eastside. Or its dogs. While it is still without a gas station, grocery store, post office or many of the other previously fundamental aspects of a community, the Josh Suman Issaquah Highlands does have a dog park. On June 30, it may have found its signature event in the American Cancer Society’s Bark for Life. Some duos came dressed in matching outfits, leaving no uncertainty where they stand on the polarizing practice of clothing pets. Booths gave festival-goers an opportunity to learn about integrating dogs into activities such as hiking and boating, or pour over food packaging labels featuring all-natural ingredients meant to sustain joint health or ward off parasites. The common tie was a deeply rooted passion for canines and the undeniable power they wield over us. “I love dogs so much,” event chair Stephanie Quam said while holding her 11-year-old dog Otis. “I try to find things we can do together and this was really fun.” And the positivity is more than just perception. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention cites a number of studies on the benefits of dog ownership and states pets can decrease a person’s blood pressure and cholesterol. Other studies have shown child development and elderly disposition can be positively effected by the simple presence of a companion animal like a dog. For anyone who has ever been truly invested in a pet, that comes as no surprise. Kids grow up and move out, trading the outright admiration of their parents for the unconditional nurturing of their own children. Friends offer a chance to escape the dregs of the nine-to-five, but only on occasion and without the relaxed disposition a dog or cat offers. Bark for Life was successful enough in its first appearance in the Highlands that Quam said it could become an annual event. With the area’s exponential growth, more schools and commercial space are already on the way. Luckily, everyone will already have a perfect place to relax with friends.

My free trip to Israel A
little over two weeks ago I left the country to visit the ever-controversial nation of Israel. It was part of the Birthright program, a plan created by private donors and the Israeli government to get young Americans with Jewish heritage between 18 and 26 to visit the country. The goal of these trips is up for debate. Is it to get Americans to move to Israel, increase the donor base, or simply a way to educate? I came in with full preparation for propaganda. But what I got surprised me. No one attempted to push me towards being more religious or supporting the politics or actions of Israel. Indirectly yes, through tours of some
of the country’s best and brightest attractions, I, along with 39 others on the trip, saw the good side of the country. But instead of being told what I should think, or how I should relate to Israel, I was simply asked plenty of open-ended questions. Unfortunately the trip was so powerpacked that I still haven’t Nat Levy had time to process them. What I did leave with is a sense of community I haven’t found often in life.

different walk of life, yet we all had something in common, Judaism. Few of us regularly attended Temple, and all of us weren’t even born Jewish, but everyone identified with it in one way or another. And what this trip did for me, and a lot of the others, was show that we can be accepted into this family, regardless of where we came from. Beyond the spiritual aspect, what a trip it was. In just over 10 days, we saw thousands upon thousands of years of history. One day I was hiking an ancient fortressmountain and riding camels, and the next I was putting notes into the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem. I got to see one of the best cities for nightlife in the world, Tel Aviv, and an underground bullet factory in the city of
Hivot, which bears a striking semblance to Bellevue with a recent rise to prominence due to the success of tech companies located in the city. To the young readers out there, with a Jewish background and a list of questions, I implore you to check out this trip. You may come back like me with a renewed sense of community, or you may not.

Bellevue company simplifies online project management ONE USER’S STORY Calgary, Alberta-based engineering company, Tangent Services knew it needed to be efficient to succeed in a global market. The company was having problems with short-term planning. Management would create deadlines for when projects needed to be finished, but how employees would get there from week to week proved difficult. About three years ago, the company looked to LiquidPlanner to fix its dilemma. John Person, vice president of the company, said the service made a big difference. It put the control of project timing into the people actually completing it, and in an organized fashion. “Because it is easy for staff to use, we get high compliance with it,” he said. “People aren’t thinking it’s an extra administrative burden; it’s part of the project to use it.” Seybold said. With endless projects and a continually expanding staff, it became harder and harder to deliver things on time. Seybold said the company tried numerous ways to manage projects better, but in the end, they had to fall back on spreadsheets. But as he saw the effectiveness of social media in people’s personal lives, he

The last few years of economic peril have caused companies to shrink, cut and slash. Now, with many of them at a bare-bones level of staffing, the question becomes how to increase productivity with those employees who are left. One possible solution lies in a small office just off Richards Road in Bellevue. LiquidPlanner, an online project management service, just celebrated its fourth anniversary. Founded by former Expedia veterans Charles Seybold and Jason Carlson, it gives businesses the ability to clearly and simply show the progress of a project. “The project management market had kind of been asleep at the wheel for years,” Seybold said. He said he saw this first hand at Expedia as it went from a small startup at Microsoft to the industry-leading travel giant it has become today. But with growth came problems,

Bellevue native Jud Virden, a 20-year laboratory veteran with experience creating energy research partnerships with U.S. industry, has been named associate laboratory director for the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory’s Energy and Environment Directorate. In his new role Virden will lead a staff of 1,100 at the Department of Energy national laboratory devoted to increasing the nation’s energy capacity and reducing Jud Virden dependence on imported oil. Virden joined the laboratory in 1991 and spent the past ten months serving as EED’s interim director. Prior to that, the Bellevue, Wash., native was EED’s chief science and technology officer.

dates for completion of a project, something Seybold said was difficult to do previously. Licenses to use the system cost $24 a month if paid for through the full year, or $29 for month-tomonth licenses. Seybold said the company has tried a few different programs, some that failed, others that have done better. When he left Expedia in
2006, Seybold took the summer off to work on ideas. With his partner Carlson, they decided to go with what they knew: solving problems. And according to Seybold, project management was a problem. LiquidPlanner launched just months before the economic crash. But while this abrupt turn of events marked the death of many
new companies, it actually helped the new firm. Applications to increase productivity became more popular, and people wanted to simplify, he said. “With the financial crisis, suddenly this huge spotlight was focused on the operations of every company,” Seybold said. “These organizations now weren’t just competing locally, they were competing globally.” Nat Levy: 425-453-4290; nlevy@bellevuereporter.com

Food, toy drive planned Bellevue fire stations will collect food and toys the month of July to support an effort by Hopelink to brighton the holidays for Bellevue infants, children and teens. The toys will go to children at the Crossroads Community Center’s annual holiday party in December. Last year, more than 1,500 families turned to the center for help and organizers are concerned that the number of people asking for help may be even greater this year. According to the latest statistics, more than 22 percent of Bellevue schoolchildren currently qualify for a free or reduced lunch, and local service agencies are reporting unprecedented requests for assistance. Hopelink is challenged in a similar way, struggling to provide quality food in a time of great need. To help, residents are encouraged to bring food and new, unwrapped toys, books, games, gift certificates, and sports equipment for young people of all ages to any Bellevue fire station during the month of July. Food and toy drive donations will be accepted at all Bellevue fire stations:
Station 1 – 766 Bellevue Way SE (Downtown/West Bellevue) Station 2 – 2802 148th Ave SE (Eastgate/Lake Hills/W. Lake Sammamish) Station 3 –16100 NE Eight St. (Crossroads/Northeast Bellevue) Station 4 – 4216 Factoria Blvd. SE (Factoria/Somerset) Station 5 – 9621 NE 24th St. (Northwest Bellevue) Station 6 – 1850 132nd Ave NE (Bridle Trails/Wilburton) Station 7 – 11900 SE Eight St. (Wilburton/Woodridge) Station 8 – 5701 Lakemont Blvd. SE (Eastgate/Cougar Mountain) Station 9 – 12412 SE 69th Way (Newport) The toys will be distributed Dec. 15 at the Crossroads Youth Holiday Party. For more information about the celebration or donations needed, contact Lt. Bill Evans, Bellevue Fire Department, at 206947-6209 or email at bevans@bellevuewa. gov.
Health care CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
physician workforce by Association of American Medical Colleges, Washington has one primary care physician to every 1,143 patients. That ratio is expected to increase once individuals are required to carry health insurance and may place a strain on primary care facilities. Washington State Hospital Association spokesperson Cassie Sauer said incentives need to be given for doctors to enter primary care in order to reduce the doctor-patient ratio, including paying a reasonable amount for primary care. Many doctors no longer accept patients with Medicaid because the reimbursement is too low. “We need to promote training, funding and legislation, if necessary, that ensures networks of physicians adequate to treat

“It’s important as pet owners to educate ourselves and know there is a lot we can do for our dogs,” Sarbu said. “Events like this are great to let people know that this happens to pets as well and when it does, we have options.” The event was the first in the Highlands, but one that event chair and local resident Stephanie Quam believes will become an annual happening. She and her 11-yearold dog Otis spearheaded the event after
patients in the programs,” said Washington State Medical Association CEO Tom Curry. The biggest challenge will be redefining “what is access” and how care is delivered to patients. That may not mean seeing a MD, Curry said. Yet despite concerns, Overlake officials believe the medical center can adapt to new regulations and new patients. Brown said the primary care clinics will add more staff if there is a sustained increase in patient use because it is important to keep people healthy before they need to get into emergency care. “We will be watching for what impacts and what particular regulations come as a result of it,” Brown said. “Quality, valuebased health care is where the industry is going and we’re definitely following that curve.” Mary Jean Spadafora: 425-453-4670, x5058; mspadafora@bellevuereporter.com
doing the same last year at Bark for Life in Renton. “I wanted to bring it here because everyone around here is so passionate about pets,” Quam said. “I love dogs so much; they are my passion. Everyone has been touched by cancer, and I try to find things Otis and I can do together.” According to the event’s website, over $1,400 was raised, 100 percent of which goes to the American Cancer Society.

Expansion planned for youth facilities at housing complexes BY MARY JEAN SPADAFORA
Boys and Girls Clubs of Bellevue will open a new teen center at the former location of the Lake Hills Library next week. The teen center will host a variety of activities open to teens 13-19 throughout the year. Youth in the area will have an opportunity to participate in recreational, technological and art programming. Staff will also lead cooking lessons, teens will have access to a computer lab and BGC hopes that the dynamic facility will provide a robust atmosphere promoting healthy lifestyles.

by working with Head Start. As the focus shifted from larger communities to smaller developments, KCHA found the opportunity to work more closely with parents, school districts and nonprofit providers to improve youth programs. Bellevue BGC aims to provide academic programs specific to the youth in Spiritwood Manor and Hidden Village. Eastside Pathways, an organization that works to provide children with a fulfilling and successful life from cradle to career, will work with BGC, the school district and the housing authority to address gaps
in each organization’s goals for low-income students in those communities. Using data provided by the Bellevue School District, certain subjects, tutors, study skill workshops, or other academic support would be provided. Teachers in the district also plan to keep lines of communication open with students, parents and BGC staff to ensure students don’t fall through the cracks. “It’s really more of a connect the dots effort,” said Eastside Pathways president, Bill Henningsgaard. Kathy Haggart, CEO of Bellevue BGC, said the partnerships enable staff
The $1.3 million facility was purchased by BGC from the King County Library System. Activities from a smaller BGC location owned by the city next door will move in to the larger location once it is open. The new center is located at 15228 Lake Hills Blvd.

The holistic approach helps adolescents learn how to make smart decisions in life, she said. “It’s a terrific example of how different organizations can work together for kids and families,” she said.

Youth facilities at two East Bellevue federally assisted housing communities are being expanded to provide more after-school programs for low-income children. After the remodels, the Bellevue Boys and Girls Clubs clubhouses at Spiritwood Manor, 1424 148th Ave. SE and Hidden Village at 14508 SE 24th St. will aim to provide better educational opportunities to adolescents by connecting extra-curricular activities with the children’s’ school activities. KCHA has partnered with the Bellevue School District, Eastside Pathways and the Boys and Girls Clubs of Bellevue to design the program model for the two locations. The facilities, once complete, will include classrooms, multipurpose activity rooms, computer labs and art rooms. The expansion initiative began last year, focusing on 17 assisted housing communities in King County, in an effort to renovate youth facilities and create adult career development resources

Rugby right at home on Eastside Football players, ex-pats, Olympic hopefuls find place in Lions’ den BY JOSH SUMAN Bellevue Reporter
When Ray Keane told his two young sons they would be moving halfway around the world, their initial reaction was predictable. Neither Killian nor Karl, now ages 13 and 11, were interested in the prospects of leaving behind their lives in Ireland for the uncertainty of the United States. But with the help of a game that runs in their blood, the Keane’s, and many other expatriots who have come to the Eastside, have found a new home among a familiar community.

Bellevue swimmers Williams, Kim compete at Olympic Trials Bellevue Christian’s Kim Williams (who swims for Bellevue High School) and Eastlake’s Ed Kim, both members of the Bellevue Club Swim Team, competed at the U.S. Olympic Swim and Dive Trials in Omaha, Neb. last week with the best in the nation for spots on the national team that will head to London. Williams, who won a 3A state title in the 100 meter breaststroke for the Wolverines during the prep season, swam in the 400 meter individual medley in Omaha. Kim, a 16-year-old student at Eastlake, qualified at the Western Region Section in the 100 meter freestyle after adding two more 4A state championships during the high school season to bring his total to four in two seasons. Neither Williams nor Kim made it out of their respective heat. The trials concluded July 2.

Love and rugby Josh Young doesn’t have a long lineage of rugby, or childhood tales of his conquests as a youth player. The former Boeing employee and teacher didn’t get into a scrum or do any rucking until he was a junior at South Kitsap High School, when he and a friend stumbled upon the local youth rugby club. A basketball and football player throughout much of his life, Young found that rugby provided a cross-section of his favorite aspects from other team sports – the quick pace and frequent ball movement of basketball, the physical nature of football – and matched it with a sense of community not common among other sports. But it wasn’t until joining the team at Washington State University that Young found a true passion

JOSH SUMAN, Bellevue Reporter for the game. “We had a really good team, got to win quite a few games and I made a lot of great friends,” Young said. “That was definitely when I fell in love with rugby.” Ever since, his mission has been finding people to share in that love.
Bellevue team takes second at Italian soccer tournament The Lake Hills Select Storm, a soccer team comprised of girls from Bellevue, Interlake, International, Sammamish and other area high schools, finished in second place at the Italy Cup in Cesenatico, Italy recently. The team lost only a pair of games, both to a squad from Poland, over the course of the five-day tournament.
Growing the game With his collegiate career over but his interest in the game at an all-time high, Young began searching for ways to remain connected to rugby. But without a youth club in the area and no one truly invested in bringing the game to the

Bellevue team booted from tourney Rain delays and scheduling conflicts resulted in a pair of District 9 softball teams being disqualified from a tournament after neither could field a team of nine for the title game. The tournament, which was delayed two days for rain, included five teams playing for one spot at state. After winning each of its first three games, EastlakeSammamish was the only remaining unbeaten and was slated to face a team composed of Bellevue Thunderbird, Bellevue West and Mercer Island Little Leaguers in the finals June 29. But several players from each team were also committed to the National Softball Association state tournament, which began the same day. District 9, which made an effort before the tournament to ensure players would be able to participate with both organizations (NSA is a separate softball entity from Little League International), would not reschedule the championship game and instead ruled that both squads were disqualified. District 9 officials declined comment and Little League International Vice President of Communications Lance VanAuken said said the idea of a doubleforfeit was not practical because, “There wouldn’t have been any punishment.”

masses on the Eastside, he found himself at a dead end. Then he connected with Waisale Serevi. Known around the world as “The King of Rugby 7s,” Serevi is the foremost ambassador of rugby in the United States and in 2010, selected Seattle as the base camp for Serevi Rugby. Shortly after, he tabbed Young to head the youth programming, giving him a chance to make a career in the game he can’t live without. “It’s a joy,” Young said of working for Serevi. “To be able to live my dreams and grow the sport of rugby for a job is a great opportunity.” Along with his work
for Serevi, which includes organizing youth camps and integrating the sport in elementary school physical education programs, Young is the backbone of the Eastside Lions. Founded in 2007, the Lions are the only rugby club on the Greater Eastside and the number of participants has doubled in size each year of the club’s existence. The club was founded by Matt Hudson, but after a year at the helm, an opportunity to coach his alma mater at WSU was too good to pass up, leaving Young in charge. “It’s been great meeting people from all the cities and finding out their interest in rugby,” he said. “It has been a lot of fun to have my passion as a job.”
At home on the pitch When the Eastside Lions
began in 2007 as the Bellevue Tyrants, the program had fewer than 15 kids all ranging from 14-18 in age. Today, the program has grown to field sides at the U8, U12, U14, U16 and U19 levels, in addition to the Super Lions men’s team and a girls program that is still in its infancy but with a dedicated following. Many of the Lions come from football or another sport hoping to stay in
shape during the offseason, but the program has also proven popular with the large ex-patriot communities around the Eastside, including the Keane’s. Ray said one of the concerns his boys voiced about the move to the U.S. was how it would impact their opportunity to continue playing a game they hope to make a career of. “The guys have done a really good job,” Keane said of Young and others involved in growing the Lions’ base. “The key thing is kind of spreading the word.” Young estimates 15 percent of the 150 players in the Lions’ system are ex-pats. Most come from European nations, making rugby a fitting and reliable transitional tool. Keane has been so impressed that he has not only kept his own children involved, but along with another ex-pat from Ireland, helped Young found the “minis” program. Designed to ensure the accessibility of the sport for the next generation of athletes, the minis program is for kids ages five to 12 and was started only two years ago with only the Keane’s and a few others. Keane sees it as the next step in the evolution of the Lions. “It is great to get kids at that age,” Keane said. “I talk to Josh about setting their
sights very high.” More than one player in recent years has done that, as the Lions have players at a handful of collegiate programs around the West and even one, Aladdin Schirmer, who made the United States U20 National Team. With rugby 7s joining the Olympic fold in 2016 and collegiate scholarships available at a handful of schools, Keane and Young believe the opportunity for sustainability is there. Young said many of those who excel at the game have a great deal of athleticism and toughness, but may lack the refined skill set or position-specific attributes desirable for other team sports. Regardless of where one fits on his or her other teams, there is a home for everyone on the rugby pitch. A number of players from the state playoff football teams at Interlake and Bellevue have joined as well, including 2013 senior running back Zakir Butte. “I always tell people to come out,” Butte said. “They have a different perception of it and think it’s all bloody noses and broken bones. But once they come out and see it and play, most people really love it.” Josh Suman: 425-453-5045; jsuman@bellevuereporter.com

‘Gangsters of Love’: A look at the new ZinZanni show Walking in to Teatro ZinZanni’s vintage cabaret tent is like stepping in to a private jazz club a-la the roaring ’20s – dimmed lights, velvet curtains, wait staff dressed in period-perfect duds – all contribute to a vibe that has most convinced they’ve stepped back in time. How appropriate, then, that the theater’s current production, “Gangsters of Love” has you doing just that. Developed by renowned performers Dreya Weber (Myrna) and Frank Ferrante (Kincaid/Caesar) over the past two years, “Gangsters of Love” keeps with the tradition of Teatro ZinZanni - incorporating an impressive mix of comedy, vaudeville and circus tricks - while bringing to life a fresh tale of love lost and found in 1932. Set amidst the backdrop of a prohibition-era speakeasy, ZinZanni’s newest show follows the tumultuous romance between cabaret performer Myrna and her former flame, mob boss Big Sam Kincaid. Playing parallel subplots of mobster tomfoolery, confessions of unrequited love and madcap circus shenanigans, “Gangsters” embodies the glitz and glam of the golden age in a three and a half hour show
Frank Ferrante as mob boss Big Sam Kinkaid in “Gangsters of Love.” COURTESY PHOTO, Tracy Martin made all the more grand by the five-course meal that accompanies the performance. In true ZinZanni fashion, the plot calls for audience participation that proves key to the success of the show.
On more than one occasion the flamboyantly fun Chef Caesar seeks out unsuspecting members of the crowd to serve as the butt of jokes, which more often than not are painfully, yet hilariously, accurate. But the true scene stealer comes in the form of famed blues vocalist Francine Reed, whose turn as jazz singer extraordinaire Madame Zanzinni, finds the audience on their feet dancing to the sultry, prohibition-era tunes. Yes, the dance break is part of the show, but it doesn’t mean Reed’s enchanting rendition of “I’ve Got You Under My Skin,” couldn’t illicit spontaneity. She’s just that good. Also of note are gravitydefying performances by aerialists Duo Madrona, comic acrobat Andrea Conway Doba and Weber - and an impressive tap-dance from vaudevillian Wayne Doba, whose charming take as fumbling waiter Dik Nimby is hard to forget. Equal parts entertainment and experience, “Gangsters” is a hilarious testament to an age when liquor and love trumped all - and a captivating trip to the past you won’t want to miss.

CAN VITAMINS PREVENT CANKER SORES?
About 40 percent of the U.S. population will get “canker sores,” which should not be confused with “cold sores” caused by the herpes simplex type 1 virus. Unlike cold sores, which occur primarily outside the mouth, canker sores occur inside the mouth. They are also quite painful and have no apparent cause, although they have been linked to nutritional problems such as vitamin B12, zinc, folic acid, or iron deficiency. These potential triggers led researchers to see if taking a daily multivitamin would help prevent the occurrence of this common ailment. However, after one year, it was found that taking a daily multivitamin consisting of 100 percent of the recommended daily intake of essential vitamins had no effect. Canker sores, which appear as pale yellow ulcerations with a red ring, are not contagious. They can be triggered by stress and typically last ten days without treatment.

520 tolls on schedule
Students finish service
For the first six months, tolling on the 520 bridge is working as planned, state officials say. Weekday traffic is free flowing for the first time in decades during the peak commute times, and revenue generated by tolling is ahead of forecasts. This trajectory puts the state slightly ahead of the finance plan, keeping the Washington State Department of Transportation on track with making the debt payments needed to pay for the bridge construction. Tolls went up July 1, as planned. The increase in will be the first of four planned 2.5 percent annual rate increases through 2015.
Fifty students at Enatai Elementary celebrated the completion of community service projects completed over the school year.
