Time for Tahoma to consider next steps

Jail costs soar for city in first year of contract

With the passage of the $195 million school bond by voters, Tahoma School District officials are turning their attention to next steps and going forward with the long list of projects.

The first step for the Tahoma School Board is to select a contractor, district spokesman Kevin Patterson TAHOMA said. He added SCHOOL DISTRICT that the district will utilize the general contractor construction manager process for the high school project.

That means that the contractor will work with the architects, DLR Group, from the beginning in designing the school. That, Patterson said, will help minimize change orders during the project and give the district more leverage in dealing with any unforeseen

The city of Maple Valley is projecting that jail costs will finish the year up 144 percent over 2012 while court costs are estimated to be nearly 70 percent higher.

Prior to this year the city had interlocal agreements for both courts and jail services with the city of Enumclaw.

MAPLE This year Maple VALLEY Valley moved to interlocal agreements with Kent for those services.

In 2012 Maple Valley spent $237,379 on court costs, according to city documents. In 2013 the budgeted amount for court services was $328,000. As of Sept.

30 the city spent $278,195 with a year end estimate of $403,233.

In 2012 the city spent $83,427 on jail costs. In 2013 the budgeted

Grown ups to battle for teen musicians’ approval

BY KRIS HILL khill@maplevalleyreporter.com

A battle of the bands event seemed like the perfect kickoff event for Megan Sheridan’s new nonprofit, Pull Together.

Sheridan was brainstorming with Arielle Young, a musician who helps Dace Anderson run Dace’s Rock ‘n’ More that has locations in Maple Valley and Redmond.

“I love what they do (at Rock ‘n’ More),” Sheridan said. “The bottom line is the goal of the battle of the bands is to help with tuition assistance to give kids access to lessons.”

Initially the idea was to do a traditional battle with a bunch of youth bands competing for prizes.

It made sense to work with Young and Anderson.

“What business do we have in

town that we could partner with, do something fun,” Sheridan said.

“It just made sense knowing the role they play here and the role they want to play.”

Sheridan, who lives in Maple Valley, started Pull Together in an effort to bring all the resources in the city to bear to help create the kind of community she believes residents want to live in.

She thought a battle of the bands would be a great place to start as she pursuits her nonprofit tax exemption status and partnering with Rock ‘n’ More could bolster that effort further.

Covington’s proposed transportation benefit district ballot measure was losing by six votes by the end of Tuesday.

The City Council approved putting the matter to voters because it doesn’t have enough money to fix streets and would like to add another officer to its police force. If the trend continues, the city will spend its reserves for road projects in four years.

The TBD would, if it

passes, generate revenue through a sales tax increase of 0.2 percent — from 8.6 percent to 8.8 percent — to fill the coffers of its street fund and could generate as much as $750,000 a year.

As of late July, the street fund is expected to be short $56,000 this year. City Manager Derek Matheson explained to the Covington Rotary July 26 that the recession, higher gas prices, inflation and statewide ballot measures reduced the cash flow into the city’s street fund.

Matheson wrote in an

email the morning after the first round of ballots were counted that he wasn’t ready to give up on the TBD yet and as of Nov. 7, he wrote, “the ballot measure’s outcome is still very much undetermined.”

City officials are thinking about what happens either way.

“If it passes, we’ll start the process to hire another police officer, create an annual street overlay program, and implement the other, smaller programs identified by the TBD board,” Matheson wrote.

Man found dead after standoff in Covington

BY KRIS HILL khill@covingtonreporter.com

A man was found dead in a Covington home Sunday evening after a long standoff following an alleged domestic violence incident with his wife in Renton.

The series of events began around 1:20 p.m. Sunday, according King County Sheriff ’s Office

spokeswoman Sgt. Cindi West, at a house in the 17100 block of Southeast 134th Street in the East Renton Highlands. The man allegedly threatened his wife with a gun, West wrote in an email Monday, then drove to a home in the Covington Firs neighborhood.

Tuesday morning West wrote in an email that the man lived in the

Matheson added that there will be a one-time street overlay program in 2014 whether the TBD passes or not because the city got a grant for projects in the northern part of the city.

“If it fails, I expect the City Council/Transportation Benefit District Board will start to talk about next steps at its annual retreat in January, if not before,” Matheson wrote. “Options include placing it on the ballot again, imposing a $20 vehicle license fee like the Maple Valley TBD, increas-

house in the East Renton Highlands with his wife, children and her parents.

“The suspect pulled a gun on his wife and then fled to his parents house (in Covington),” West wrote Tuesday. “A deputy saw the suspect drive toward the house and tried to stop the vehicle but the suspect pulled into the driveway of the house and held a gun to his head.

He held the gun to his head for a while, then went on the porch of the house still holding the gun to his head. Deputies tried to talk him into putting the gun down but he refused.”

West wrote that the man then barricaded himself in the house

ing the General Fund’s $250,000 annual subsidy to the Street Fund (which is possible only with sustained economic growth), and reducing Street Fund programs as the fund runs out of money.”

Ballots were not counted Monday because King County offices were closed for Veterans Day. Another round of ballots were to be counted and results posted Wednesday afternoon.

and would not leave. He was alone.

Negotiators were called to the scene as was the county’s SWAT team.

Around 4:30 p.m. deputies heard what sounded like a gunshot from inside the house.

“A robot was deployed — with a camera — and the man appeared to be injured or dead,” West wrote. “(SWAT) entered the house and saw that the man had what appeared to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Medics confirmed the man was dead.”

West added that nearby homes were evacuated and some streets in the neighborhood were closed in the interest of the safety of residents in the area.

Come meet the second most interesting man in the world, and he’ll pay the sales tax.

O Q U O T E O F N O T E : ”All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”

Gandalf, “The Fellowship of the Ring”

Bond measure a victory for all

OUR CORNER

Kris Hill Assistant Editor

Before the Nov. 5 election I was cautiously optimistic about the possibility of the Tahoma School District’s $195 million construction bond measure would pass.

Then the first round of ballots were tallied and the results posted the evening of Nov. 5.

What I saw when I was finally able to pull up the results online — I had a hard time finding them while also sifting through the Maple Valley and Covington city council race numbers — blew my expectations out of the water.

I knew the bond measure was passing before I saw the numbers as Katherine Smith sent me a message to tell me that Tahoma had good news.

To see that already 68 percent of ballots were marked yes at that point, which was about 8,000, was beyond what I thought would happen. I conservatively guessed it would pass with about 61 percent of the vote.

District officials and members of the VOTE Yes committee, which campaigned on behalf of TSD, told us and Facebook followers they expected the numbers to trend upward with possibly as much as a 70 percent approval rating once the election is certified later this month. As I write this on Tuesday morning — another round of counted ballots were to be posted at 4:30 p.m.

— the support had trended upward toward 68.99 percent or 8,679 ballots cast in favor of the bond.

Considering the last bond measure garnered less than 53 percent approval when it needed a supermajority of 60 percent to pass, as did this year’s measure, in April 2011, that is a considerable swing in a community which I consider to be fiscally conservative especially when it comes to tax increases.

I attribute the success to a number of things.

First, I think the economy has improved enough in the past two and a half years that voters

Not all minutes are the same Be it a history lecture or Greek philosophy, we are told about time lines, which move relentlessly forward without pause. This seems to hold true in our daily lives; we certainly never wake up and find ourselves reliving yesterday. But while that is true when we measure time in small quantities, we find it is far from constant.

When scientists speak of a minute they are speaking in terms of average time. Time is not a constant march forward but rather small steps forward and backward. Each minute varies in length so when a scientist speaks of a minute he is referring to the average length of a minute.

are more comfortable with this tax increase.

Granted, not all voters are since 31 percent voted against it and I understand that. In any case, the district had plenty of good signs in the past year as Maple Valley Fire’s last levy lid lift was passed, the Tacoma School District’s bond measure passed in February, Auburn School District’s efforts to raise $110 million to renovate Auburn High passed last fall on the third try, to name just a few indicators people are more likely to support these kinds of ballot measures in the region than in 2011.

What I also believe led to the bond’s passage is the way VOTE Yes campaigned this time around. I followed the committee’s posts on Facebook and it was clear to me the members took nothing for granted. They communicated the urgency of dealing with the district’s overcrowding in an effective way by imparting that message in a variety of ways from interviews with The Reporter as well as all of the local television stations to sign waving at the Four Corners intersection to doorbelling to a website with well-articulated arguments supported with

data. They also reached out more effectively to those who don’t have children in the district by bringing local real estate agents on board to help explain the economic impact it would have on the community such as a dip in home values — I was going to vote for it anyway, but as a homeowner, this struck me, too since we would like to sell our starter home in 2015 to buy something a bit roomier — as well as the difficulty that could create in attracting businesses here and the impact that could have on the community as a whole.

At the center of all this was the district’s vision for a new Tahoma High School in what we have affectionately called the Donut Hole since 2007.

This 154 acre piece of King County-owned property sits almost smack in the middle of the city of Maple Valley — a critical bit of trivia because Tahoma High is actually in the city of Covington now — which is home to a county transportation and roads facility, nine holes of Elk Run Golf Course and a large stand of trees. I am

amounts of time to cover the same distance.

Given that the object was traveling at the same speed the only explanation was that time was not constant; time therefore had to be variable.

This led scientists to try to break time down into ever smaller pieces to measure the variations in time.

When quantum physicists, the examiners of infinitely small things, look at time they find that at an extremely small fractions of a second can vary by up to 1,800 percent, the average change being 200 percent. This means that a very small measure of time could be up to 18 times larger than another measurement of time.

With 10 billion of these small pieces of time in a second, even with large variations in their length, a second will average out to be very close to the same measurement. It is like flipping a coin. You might get three heads in a row but if you flip a coin 1,000 times it would be surprising to get many more than 500 heads or 50 percent. Just like the coin toss when you combine 10 billion time measurements together each second would be essentially the same.

For 300 years science had believed in the work of Sir Isaac Newton. He had worked out equations to explain motion; these used time

as a constant. For those of us who took physics class we would have used plenty of his equations in class and homework. Unfortunately, when his equations were used over extremely long distances the variations of time in a given measurement caused these equations to fail.

Scientists since the early 1800’s realized that the equations did not fully work but without the new tools to investigate they continued to use and teach these equations as these formulas were the best they had.

With the discovery that time is not constant such that a given length of time varies between different pieces of time, new questions began to emerge. For example, if time is not constant, does it have to be the same in every location? Time is different in various locations, and there are measures that can be taken to slow time down, speed it up, and other ways to manipulate time. I look forward to sharing how time moves at different speeds in different places and ways we can manipulate time in my next article.

How SBA helps veterans become entrepreneurs after service

BY CALVIN W. GOINGS Regional Administrator, Small Business Administration

Across America, there are more than 250,000 service members transitioning out of our military and looking to start their own businesses. These veterans possess the unique skills, experience, leadership and drive that make them ideally suited to start businesses and create jobs in their local communities.

We know that veterans over-index in entrepreneurship.

Today, there are approximately 2.5 million veteran-owned businesses and these businesses employ nearly 6 million

[ HILL from page 4] quite familiar with this property because I have lived near it for nine and a half years and written about it off and on since early 2007. County officials want to move the transportation facility out of the middle of the neighborhood which has grown up around it.

And Tahoma officials think a new high school which would serve as a regional learning center, a place that would go beyond the traditional purpose of a comprehensive fouryear high school, to offer courses by higher education institutions for members of the community as well as Tahoma students. This could potentially draw businesses to the city which could partner with the district as well as provide new jobs.

Unlike in 2011, when the district proposed a wide swath of fixes for a variety of schools, this proposed bond measure had a central project with a clear focus which would resolve the district’s increasingly challenging overcrowding issues.

This vision was an easier sell, I think, and from what I could tell from the letters to the editor we received, the comments we got on those letters particularly the first one we got that voiced disapproval of the bond, along with the dialog I saw on the VOTE Yes committee’s Facebook profile led me to a cautious optimism about the bond.

In late October I went for a run on a Saturday morning. As I set out to warm up, some volunteers were walking through

workers. SBA supports a nationwide network of Veteran Business Opportunity Centers which, along with SBA’s other resource partners, provide business counseling and training. In 2013, with our resource partner network, SBA has helped train and counsel more than 107,000 veteran business owners to date.

Veteran-owned small businesses won more than $12.2 billion in federal contracting business in FY 2012. And for the first time ever, the federal government exceeded the 3 percent goal to contract with Service Disabled VeteranOwned Small Businesses.

We’ve improved our collaboration with veteran-focused partner organizations and increased outreach via veteranfocused events and training programs, including Veteran Women Igniting the Spirit of Entrepreneurship, which provides focused business assistance to female veterans of all service areas and branches with a passion for and an interest in either starting a new small business or growing an existing one.

Our nation’s veterans have helped reshape the American economy. At the SBA, we know that with the right tools and opportunities, veterans can continue to build our economy for the long-term. The Seattle District Office is here to help. Contact 206-553-7310 for more information. my neighborhood and I told them not to worry about ringing my doorbell because my husband and I would be voting for the bond measure.

I ran out of my neighborhood, down to KentKangley Road and east to Four Corners where I saw a large number of supporters waving signs. I ran through the intersection and back behind Safeway, down Maple Valley Highway then headed home, smiling to myself as I considered the differences between this campaign and the last. I felt good about this community I live in.

I was bursting with pride, though, Nov. 5 when I saw the first tally of votes. I was also relieved. By the time my daughter hits second grade, the new Tahoma High will be built, and she

will not be in a crowded elementary school.

The kids in the district will continue to get the world-class education, the best teachers will stay and principals will be able to attract more incredible educators.

Not only will our children benefit but the entire community will reap the rewards. Our investment of an additional $36 a month for a home worth $300,000 will be well worth it. It is considerably less expensive than what we spend for the juvenile and adult criminal justice systems, which is where those who don’t finish high school frequently end up, and a far more powerful an investment.

Cheers to the community of voters in the Tahoma School District for making that investment.

In fiscal year 2013, SBA supported more than $1.8 billion in lending to more than 3,000 veteran-owned small businesses.

[ JAIL from page 1] on jail costs. In 2013 the budgeted amount for jail costs was $139,000. As of Sept. 30 the city spent $132,870 with a year end estimate of $202,065.

Maple Valley City Manager David Johnston attributed increased court and jail costs for the city with paying current rates and growth that comes with being a growing city.

Johnston said in a phone interview Tuesday that Enumclaw gave Maple Valley notice and terminated the courts and jail interlocal agreements because Maple Valley had outgrown Enumclawâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s facilities. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It (Maple Valleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s court traffic) was overflowing their municipal court facilities,â&#x20AC;? Johnston said.

When the interlocal agreements with Kent were proposed to council members in August 2012, Johnston told council that an increased cost was to be expected because Enumclaw undercharged the city. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The issue that we need to understand is that we should have been paying a heck of a lot more to Enumclaw,â&#x20AC;? Johnston told council at the Aug. 6, 2012 meeting.

Under the interlocal agreement for jail services with Enumclaw, Maple Valley paid a rate of $60 per prisoner per 24-hour period.

Under the terms of the current interlocal agreement with Kent, Maple Valley pays for two guaranteed spots for prisoners at the Kent Corrections Facility every day at a rate of $220 per day, or a total of $80,300 a year. Maple Valley pays for those guaranteed spots regardless of whether or not there are Maple Valley inmates using them. In addition, Maple Valley pays $135 per additional inmate per calendar day.

As for why court costs were over even the anticipated and budgeted increase for this year, Johnston chalked it up to the flaws of developing a city budget.

through to become a nonprofit they can become my fiscal sponsor so they help me do what I want to do as I wait for my (nonprofit) designation and help them benefit financially,â&#x20AC;?

Sheridan said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The second piece of besides being able to help both of us is the whole point of battle of the bands is to raise money for youth programs community wide.â&#x20AC;?

As the two women talked about this event, they pulled Anderson into the conversation and he proceeded to flip it on its head. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I started thinking about how it would work,â&#x20AC;?

Anderson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A regular battle of the bands is tough,

especially when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re trying to raise money. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know how I had this idea to flip it on its head, but, we have enough adult bands in the area so I had this vision. And, they never get a chance to do this.â&#x20AC;?

Thus, three adult bands will be judged by Heat, a group of 12- and 13-yearold boys who have played music together for some time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Anytime you have Heat involved in anything is a good idea because they bring a lot of energy to what they do,â&#x20AC;? Anderson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had this idea, a lot of them are business leaders in Maple Valley, and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to be doing something that this group of 13 year old kids are pros at so

the kids are going to be able to look up and say â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;This is good, this is not so good, work on this.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;?

Slated to perform for judging by the members of Heat are The Angry Beavers, the Rotary Gearheads and 30 Years After.

And because thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a silent auction involved, Sheridan said, it made sense to her, Young and Anderson to bring in an audience which has the disposable income to spend on those items.

The battle of the bands is set to start at 6 p.m., Saturday, Nov. 23, at Tahoma Middle School. An after hours party will start after the battle concludes at 9 p.m. This is where the silent auction will happen, Young

said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want them to grow because of what they can offer to this community and what they do offer is amazing. Support the kids, support our community, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what it is all about.â&#x20AC;?

Anderson said that while this may be a kickoff for Pull Together, it could be the beginning of so much more. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There was a pretty big economic downturn and everythingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s starting to turn

and Anderson will perform, all at DaVine in Maple Valley. Sheridan explained the $25 ticket price for the event will be converted to a credit toward the silent auction.

Sheridan said she and Young are more excited about this new concept than the original battle idea they came up with in September when they first talked.

But Sheridan is particularly excited about what it could do for Rock â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;nâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; More, perhaps more so than it being a starting point event for Pull Together. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The big thing for me is because Pull Together is to help families, to provide a community where families can thrive,â&#x20AC;?

when we can permanently solve overcrowding changes the equation and allows us to be more flexible.â&#x20AC;?

Other details still to be worked out include the possibility of the school district partnering with the city of Maple Valley to develop Summit Park and Ballfields.

Patterson said that district administrators have had preliminary talks with David Johnston, Maple Valley city manager, and Greg Brown, city parks and recreation director. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whew, we passed the bond, but woah, now we have a lot of work to do,â&#x20AC;? Patterson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s positive work, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s problem solving work..itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very exciting.â&#x20AC;?

problems. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It (using a general contractor construction manager process) is fairly new in public projects,â&#x20AC;? Patterson said.

Traditionally an architect was selected who drew up the plans and then the district would go out for bids and award the bid to the lowest responsible bidder who met the criteria. Patterson said that change orders once a project got underway often drove up costs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With the GCCM, the contractor works with the architect from the beginning so you can head off more of those problems,â&#x20AC;? Patterson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Because the contractor is there from the start theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re responsible. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s almost like a building guarantee â&#x20AC;Ś what we should get is a much more reliable budget.â&#x20AC;?

Also in the immediate future, Patterson said, the district will begin selling bonds â&#x20AC;&#x201D; likely in December â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and examine what projects can be done right away. Most of those will be warm, safe and dry projects â&#x20AC;&#x201D; that is new roofs, new siding on buildings and safety and security measures to name a few. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll try to do the most that we can up front, but the

most visible parts will take a few years,â&#x20AC;? Patterson said.

For the new high school, planning and permitting is expected to take one year, followed by a year of site prep before the building can start going up, with an expected opening for the 2017-2018 school year.

Some of the other projects, like tearing down the B building of Lake Wilderness Elementary School as well as remodeling and adding six classrooms and other realignment related remodeling projects wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take place until the new high school is completed.

Patterson said the school district is committed to not using double-shifting or year-round school schedules because the community approved the bond measure. Patterson said the district will find short-term solutions if needed before the high school, and requisite district restructuring, can be completed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We will not implement alternative scheduling because it is disruptive to families and because it takes considerable time to plan for only a one or two year solution,â&#x20AC;? Patterson wrote in an email Nov. 8. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Instead, we will seek short-term ways to house students until we can open the new high school and realign our other schools.

Unraveling the voter guide and joining the votersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; club propaganda frenzy in the book â&#x20AC;&#x153;1984.â&#x20AC;?

So as we sat there guiding our daughter through the voting process, we knew the only thing commercials served in our decision was to emphasize the passion of the issue. Then there is all that stuff on the ballot we arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t aware of.

One year we Washington State voters apparently let a political monger out of the bag and heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been on the hunt for initiatives ever since.

Gretchen Leigh

Living with Gleigh

My husband and I sat down with my oldest daughter last week to help her vote for the first time.

Years ago, my daughters established political commercials were a bunch of garbage not to be believed. To them these commercials are little more than middle school squabbling by grown-ups. My oldest daughter even used these smear campaigns in 2010 to create a video report on how propaganda created media frenzy in real life compared with the

One of those initiative we approved was when our Washington legislature does its job without having a vote of the people, it needs to appear on the ballot after the fact so we can decide if they made good decisions or not.

When you read them they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make any sense and keep in mind theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve already been decided on and we just needed to decide whether these decisions should be maintained or repealed.

My daughter was in despair about not understanding or knowing the issues when she sat down, but these bills that were decided

â&#x20AC;&#x153;without a vote of the peopleâ&#x20AC;? sent her over the edge.

You start to feel really small when faced with a voterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ballot you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand.

You felt like a fairly intelligent person when you sat down, but then youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not so sure anymore.

So my husband and I walked her through it.

I read every issue out loud from the brochure, if we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand it, I Googled it. Then we talked about it and cast our vote, armed with our new knowledge. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just a good thing we only have mail-in ballots in Washington State, because when you go to a voting poll booth, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not

sure if they let you copy off each otherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s papers or work in a group.

I remember as a child my parents would go to the voting booth and when they came home Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d ask them who they voted for. They told me people didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t talk about who they voted for; it was something to be kept to themselves. Why? It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like I was asking if they lied about their weight on their driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s license or what they said in the confessional. I brought it up to my mom and she didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know why they kept it a secret; except maybe to defer any disagreements.

So we slogged through

our ballots. When we got to all the people we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know running for offices we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know about, my youngest daughter started yelling from the other room, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like that person. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t vote for them.â&#x20AC;?

Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fret young one, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be in the club soon enough and you can make those decisions on your own.

Gretchen Leigh is a stayat-home mom who lives in Covington. She is still puzzled over the voterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pamphlet. You can also read more of her writing at www.livingwithgleigh. com.

Japanese maples thrive in the Pacific Northwest climate

A FEW WORDS ABOUT VARIEGATED MAPLES All maples are members of the Acer family, but this large group of trees also includes what

are commonly called box elder trees â&#x20AC;&#x201C; weedy, messy natives that also harbor the box elder bug.

Now that I have shared the garden gossip about the trashy box elder, I must remind you not to judge the entire family because of the bad behavior of a few members.

There is one box elder that is so dainty, wellbehaved and lovely to look at that she belongs in every garden.

The variegated box elder (Acer negundo Variegatum) has creamy white and green leaves with hanging clusters of sterile seeds in a creamy white.

It is much smaller than the species box elder and Marianne Binetti

The Compleat Home Gardener

The third week of November is when maple leaves remind us why the season is called â&#x20AC;&#x153;fall.â&#x20AC;?

It is also the time to be thankful that we live in the Pacific Northwest.

Japanese maples grow better here with less care than any place in the world.

Japanese maples have an advantage to the home gardener over the more common big leaf maples, because the smaller leaves wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t smother the lawn or suffocate the shrubbery.

much easier to grow than other variegated trees like the rather demanding diva known as the wedding cake tree or pagoda dogwood (Cornus alternifolia).

If you have a lot of dark, green evergreens in your landscape, a variegated tree or shrub will help lighten up the palette.

A GOOD RED JAPANESE MAPLE When it comes to having a fiery personality plus a great figure the Blood Good Japanese (Acer palmatum var. atropurpurea) is the go-to small tree for growing in a lawn or as a background tree in the corner of a small yard.

Easy to find at area nurseries, the red summer foliage turns fiery orange every autumn

SHORT BUT SWEET MAPLES Look for grafted Japanese maples with the distinctive waterfall form if you want to enjoy all the glory of these beautiful trees without the height.

Grafted Japanese maples do especially well

and at 15 to 20 feet tall, this is one tree that wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t outgrow its welcome after planting.

All Japanese maples do best when protected from the hot afternoon sun and strong winds but the gracefully arching branches of the Blood Good Japanese maple make this the perfect focal point tree underplanted with pink evergreen azaleas, white-leaved bruneras and hostas and the purple foliage of heucheras to echo the color of the overhead leaves of the tree.

in large containers and are perfectly happy in a half whiskey barrel for a decade or so as long as you remember to keep the soil moist.

My favorite bedmate for these weeping maples is to pair them up with the winter blooming Snowdrop bulbs (Galanthus).

Check for snowdrop bulbs now and get them into the ground this week â&#x20AC;&#x201D; youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll enjoy cheery winter blooms for years to come as they spread and multiply.

What makes this a marriage made in heaven is the fact that snowdrops bloom before the maple puts out new foliage.

Then, when the bulbs are done and with their foliage ripening and turning yellow, the new maple leaves emerge from dormancy, quickly creat-

ing a screen so the bulbs will never be embarrassed by the ugliness of their old age.

Good manners like this is just what earns Japanese maples their reputation for excellence.

Black hairy tongue might sound like the name of a punk rock band or perhaps like a symptom of a zombie apocalypse. In reality, however, black hairy tongue is a harmless condition caused by an outbreak of bacteria or fungi in the mouth that makes the tongue look like it has supernaturally become black and hairy.

The condition can be caused by smoking, poor oral hygiene, antibiotics, medications that contain bismuth, as well as a host of other problems. Black hairy tongue may be unpleasant to look at, but it rarely causes any serious problems. Sufferers of the oral problem may experience nausea, and some individuals have reported feeling a burning sensation on the tongue. Call your healthcare provider to see if a round of anti-fungal medication can help with black hairy tongue.

Practicing good oral hygiene is the best way to treat black hairy tongue. Gently brush your teeth twice a day with a soft toothbrush. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also important to brush your tongue. You can use a tongue scraper to make sure youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re thoroughly cleaning the area. Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help keep your mouth clean.

The food that we eat and the events that take place during digestion is a complex science.

Few understand these complexities beyond the limited scope of what might be remembered from an eighth grade health class.

What’s worse is the constant presentation of poor and sometimes even false information about this process and the way in which it affects our bodies.

When surveyed, most Americans admit to taking much of their dietary cues from friends and family or the media. Unfortunately, friends and family are often just as misinformed. The media, particularly those groups involved in the mar-

keting of products that we consume, can often provide misleading information in an effort to sell more of their products. Are sports drinks really a good source of hydration? Is the Paleo diet that the neighbor raves about really the answer to shedding unwanted pounds? Is the barbecue chicken wrap a healthy alternative when ordering at the burger restaurant named after a red bird?

Warning: The answer to that one may be shocking!

The end result of this confusion is that many individuals live day to day in a constant state of dysfunction — their bodies protesting with the warning signs of fatigue, inflammation, undesired weight gain, and illness. Poor nutrition and dietary habits are problems

TAHOMA BAND BOOSTERS BAZAAR NOV. 16 The Tahoma band boosters are hosting a holiday bazaar from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Nov. 16 at Tahoma High School in Covington.

that carry serious consequences. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, nearly 10 percent of Americans are now diabetic with an additional 30 percent classified as pre-diabetic. Poor diet is identified as the primary cause of Type 2 diabetes.

A recent study points to a very strong link between obesity and breast cancer.

The list goes on and on.

Of course, most individuals do not purposely aim to maintain unhealthy eating habits. A registered dietitian can help make sense of this scientific puzzle.

As a qualified medical professional, an RD is able to provide an individualized plan and the education needed to optimize body function and help cut through some of the

misinformation. A registered dietician is licensed through the state and earned a four-year degree from an accredited university which is an important point to contrast against the qualifications and education of others that may offer nutrition counseling at the local gym or the late night infomercial.

Dietary counseling is a growing discipline. Where once difficult to find, registered dietitians can now be found practicing in our community.

Ask your physician or physical therapist about recommending a registered dietitian. It might be a good investment of time and money as a way of avoiding the financial and personal consequences of poor health.

The bazaar will include a pie sale, live entertainment, crafts and jewelry for sale, a bake sale and more.

A doctorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s guide to over-the-counter cold and flu medicine

BY SEPEHR OLIAEI, MD MultiCare Health System

Cold and flu season is upon us. With it, comes the dreaded stuffy nose. Add to that the pressure of congested sinuses and painfully plugged ears and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be willing to try almost anything for relief. But beware â&#x20AC;&#x201D; some over-the-counter decongestants carry hidden danger.

There are dozens of products available to treat cold symptoms that are readily available on the shelves of your neighborhood retail pharmacy, from pills that promise to relieve a multitude of symptoms, to colorful flavored syrups that are said to do the same for your children. The choice can be difficult at times, and, there are some choices that you may regret.

DECONGESTANT SPRAYS The over-the-counter topical decongestant sprays oxymetazoline (Afrin, Dristan, Vicks Sinex, etc.) or phenylephrine (like Neo-Synephrine), may cause problems if

used for longer than a few days.

Afrin and other sprays work by shrinking small blood vessels in the nose that would normally contribute to the swelling and mucous drainage, thereby drying the nose and opening the breathing passages.

They initially have an instant and almost magically powerful effect in relieving nasal, sinus and occasionally ear symptoms. They are easy to use and do not have a major effect on the rest of the body since they are not taken orally.

However, with each subsequent dose, the effects of the drugs decrease. After a few days, the effects begin to wear off more quickly and are replaced by rebound congestion that remains long after your cold ends. This can create a vicious cycle, as the user begins to use the spray more frequently to combat the rebound congestion.

In some of the worst cases Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen of decongestant â&#x20AC;&#x153;addictsâ&#x20AC;? (rhinitis medica mentosa is the technical term), users keep a bottle with them at all times and use it repeatedly throughout the day. They give

themselves damage to the lining of the nose and constant congestion, and have an exceedingly difficult time trying to quit.

What can you do to avoid this? Use Afrin spray or similar products for no more than 72 hours and only when you have an acute cold.

ORAL DECONGESTANTS Oral decongestants, like pseudoephedrine, such as Sudafed, or phenylephrine, such as Vicks Sinex, may be a better option.

However, oral decongestants may raise your blood pressure so be cautious, and talk to your doctor before use. Antihistamines can also help, but these can be sedating.

Avoid driving or operating machinery after taking sedating antihistamines.

Sedating antihistamines include Benadryl (diphenhydramine), mild to moderately sedating antihistamines include Zyrtec, and non-sedating antihistamines include Allegra and Claritin.

COMBINATION COLD MEDICINES When you use combination cold medicines that contain multiple products, be sure to carefully review these to make sure that it suits your needs. Most cold remedies contain acetaminophen for pain relief and fever control in addition to a topical decongestant and an antihistamine. Some may contain a cough suppressant as well.

If your symptoms worsen despite taking these medications or you develop high fever and other severe symptoms that last more than a few days, it may be an indication of a bacterial infection, seek the consultation of your physician for help in those situations.

Kentwood punches ticket to state

ALSO AT THE DISTRICT VOLLEYBALL TOURNAMENT: Tahoma struggled in its matches on the first day of the district volleyball tournament Nov. 8 at Kentwood.

After winning the first game against Curtis, Tahoma lost three straight in the first match.

In a loser-out game against Spanaway Lake, Tahoma again won the first game, then lost three straight as the Bears season came to an end.

K

entwood volleyball started a new state tournament appearance streak Nov. 8 thanks to wins over Skyview and Kentridge in the opening rounds of the district tournament.

A year ago, Auburn Riverside knocked Kentwood out, which snapped an eight-year run in the state tournament for the Conquerors.

With Bil Caillier back at the helm as head coach, Kentwood, led by seniors Lauren Hackett and Sarah Toeaina, was ready to punch its ticket to state and cross another goal off the list for the 2013 season.

Kentwood started with a 3-0 sweep of Skyview in the first round, winning 25-22, 25-16, 26-24 then put away Kentridge in a win that was particularly sweet. The Conks only league loss during the regular season was a 3-2 defeat at the hands of the Chargers in October.

This time, Kentwood handled Kentridge with a three set victory of 25-15, 25-19, 25-18.

“It felt good because … it was kind of revenge for a league loss,” Hackett said.

Toeaina noted it was quite an accomplishment for the Conks to get back to state.

“Very proud of our team for staying focused,” Toeaina said. “We knew what was at stake here and we knew we could get it.”

Hackett said the preparation for the district tournament was particularly good thanks to Caillier getting on the court with them as well as taking sets from Kentlake graduate Courtney Thompson which is a hitter’s dream.

“We had a really good week of practice,” Hackett said. “Courtney Thompson, the Olympic (team) setter, visited (Nov. 7). Every one of her sets was a dime.”

And something about practice helped Kentwood’s players hone their killer instincts.

Hackett said before the district tournament that the team had so much fun, the girls sometimes didn’t feel the pressure to close out a match.

“Our aggression was better than ever before,” Hackett said. “Our middles — a junior and a sophomore — were swinging. And knowing that getting the first two games isn’t enough.”

That was an important

thing for Kentwood to remember when it faced Camas in the semi-finals.

The Conks held off the Papermakers in a 3-2 victory, including an extended fifth game.

This set up a match up in the district championship contest with Bellarmine Prep, widely considered one of the contenders for the 4A state title at the tournament which is set to start Friday at St. Martin’s University in Lacey.

Kentwood couldn’t cross of winning a district title from its list of goals as Bellarmine won 3-0.

Still, the Conks are ready for state. The Lions from Bellarmine are on the other half of the bracket. It is possible they could meet up again.

Kentwood faces Bothell in its first round match at 8 a.m. Friday at St. Martin’s.

After beating Kentridge, Toeaina said there is still work to do before the state tournament. And high expectations.

“I felt like we just didn’t give up,” Toeaina said. “We were down in a couple matches and we came back.

Same goals for each game (at state). Same team focus.

Getting to state is not what we’re settling at.”

Blowouts knock Tahoma and Kentwood out of playoffs

BY KATHERINE SMITH ksmith@covingtonreporter.com

Kentwood and Tahoma football were both knocked out of the playoffs in their respective games Nov. 8.

Kentwood fell to Eastlake 52-7 at French Field.

“It was one of our uglier losses,” said Kentwood head coach Rex Norris. “They (Eastlake) just did a nice job turning the ball over.”

On the second play of the game Eastlake’s Troy Lewis took off with the ball, running 70 yards for an Eastlake touchdown to go up 7-0.

The Conquerors held the Wolves to a field goal attempt on their second drive of the game and Kentwood’s Kyle Capperauld got his hand up to block the attempt, holding Eastlake to seven points.

In the second quarter Eastlake’s Gage Casal ran for 35 yards for the Wolves’ second touchdown of the night and the extra point put Eastlake up 14-0.

Kentwood answered with a 42 yard carry

by Brandon Sytsma to put the ball on the 8-yard line but a fumble recovered by Eastlake halted the drive with four and a half minutes to go in the half.

TAHOMA GIRLS SOCCER HEADED TO STATE TOURNAMENT Tahoma’s girls soccer won two straight loser-out district playoff games to earn a spot in the 4A state champion-

Two more touchdowns and a field goal put Eastlake up 31-0 at the half.

Kentwood continued to struggle with turnovers and containing the Eastlake running game in the second half.

The lone Kentwood touchdown of the night came from Sytsma in the fourth quarter.

“We have been on the other end of that before, we have been that team,” Norris said. “These kids are going to learn from this and they’re going to grow from it as men, I hope. I’m proud of them, I’m proud to be their coach. They had a great season and wound up winning enough games to win league.”

GIG HARBOR 56, TAHOMA 14 Tahoma suffered a similar fate at Gig Harbor, with a 56-14 loss that knocked the Bears out of the playoffs Nov. 8.

Offensievely for the Bears Joe Donahue had 14 carries for 78 yards, DeShon Williams had seven catches for 122 yards, Elijah Suka had eight tackles and one fumble recovery while defensively Denham Patricelli had six tackles.

Sophomore midfielder Mia Corbin scored in the first match against Bellarmine Prep which Tahoma went on to win 4-2 in a shootout.

Tahoma then took on league rival Kentwood Nov. 9, coming away with a 2-0 win to knock the Conquerors out of the playoffs. Bailey Martoncik and Kaelan Shamseldin scored for the Bears.

Galgano brothers make Tahoma tennis stronger

BY ALEXANDRA BOLTON For the Reporter

Brothers Carter and Davis Galgano, senior and sophomore at Tahoma High School, are the only South Puget Sound League North team to qualify for the tennis state tournament after districts this last weekend.

The Galganos contributed to a successful season for Tahoma boys tennis, which finished third as a team in league.

“I think our team was just a great team because really we could put anyone at any position, and really that’s what we did all year long. We could perform at a high level with any kind of combination. That really kind of shows the strength of our team this year,” said coach David Reynoldson, who has led boys tennis at Tahoma for 13 years.

The combination of Carter and Davis, tried out last year, was part of the shuffling that took place. Carter began the season at singles while Davis played doubles. When the team beat Kentridge — which handed the Chargers only loss of the season and their first in seven years — the Galgano brothers had not yet joined forces.

“It was a team effort,” Reynoldson said of the victory over Kentridge. “Everyone did their job.”

About half way through league play, the Galgano brothers came to Reynoldson wanting to team up again.

“They kind of figured out how to help each other out as best they can and be successful,” Reynoldson said. “Being family was kind of nice, they were really supportive of each other.” Davis agrees that their relationship has its advantages on the court.

“We know what the other is thinking and what we need

to do to pick them up,” Davis said.

The Galgano brothers finished sixth in the district tennis tournament Nov. 1-2 and will play in the state 4A doubles tournament May 30-31 in Richland.

Of Tahoma’s 10 varsity players, nine are seniors, which puts some pressure on the younger Galgano as the sole returning varsity player next year. This team of seniors put up big wins against Kentridge and Auburn Riverside.

Players like senior Joe Joe Jimenez, who went undefeated in league play this season, have helped Tahoma tennis turn it around the past two seasons.

“I’m glad I’ve got Davis who can lead the next group,” Reynoldson said. “I’ll have him the next couple years to help lead the guys coming in and to help them be as good as these guys. One experience is back, that’s going to help us be stronger.”

Tahoma girls cross country team takes home third at state khill@maplevalleyreporter.com

Tahoma’s girls cross country team added another trophy to the case with a third place finish at the state championships in Pasco Nov. 9.

Delaney Tiernan led the charge for the Bears with an eighth place finish, crossing the finish line with a time of 18 minutes, 26.28 seconds, nearly 20 seconds faster than her 13th place finish as a sophomore in 2012. Kayla Contreras

was next to finish, coming in 15th.

Kent-Meridian freshman Olivia Baerny was the highest placing girl from the Kent schools, coming in 36th at 19:11.84. Kyra Kaiser, a junior from Kentridge, finished 64th.

Meanwhile, the Tahoma boys finished in sixth place, with senior Riley Campbell finishing eighth with a time of 15:28.09. As a junior, Campbell finished 17th with a time of 15:49.1.

Kentwood’s Robin Cheema was the highest finished of

Spotlighting

boys from the Kent schools, coming in 30th with a time of 16:00.32.

Gig Harbor won the boys team title thanks to sweeping the top three individual spots.

JERRY WOODS HOLIDAY FIRE ENGINE COMING TO MAPLE VALLEY NEIGHBORHOODS The Jerry Woods holiday fire engine will be visiting the neighborhoods in the Maple Valley area this holiday season. As in the past, food and monetary donations will be collected for the Maple Valley Food Bank.

The holiday fire engine is sponsored by the Maple Valley Professional Firefighters Association, and the Maple Valley Rotary. Each year the holiday fire engine volunteers have been able to contribute to the food bank and they will be looking forward to doing the same this year with the help of the community.

Oliver! plays Nov. 29-Dec. 31 at The 5th Avenue Theatre, 1308 5th Ave, Seattle, WA 98101. Tickets may be purchased online at www.5thavenue.org, by phone at 206-625-1900, or at the Box Office at 1308 5th Avenue in downtown Seattle.

FORMER KENTWOOD STAR SMITH SCORES 25 IN GEORGETOWN DEBUT
