A GARDEN TOUCHED BY THE SUNSET
Nancy Davidson Short sits at the crest of the garden behind her Hunts Point home. The former editor for Sunset Magazine purchased the property in 1938 and gradually turned the land into a complex and varied landscape of native and non-native plants. Short, 101, is particularly fond of trilliums and maintains a batch of rhododendrons. Her garden, and four others, will be featured in a tour to benefit the Lake Washington Symphony Orchestra.

Housing market strong for sellers The Eastside housing market has been a seller's dream for more than a year now. But a lack of availability and fierce competition is making it challenging for many buyers looking to strike a deal for a new home.

billion. The median price for a singlefamily home was up 10.2 percent over 2012 at $270,000. On the higher end of home purchases, last year Bellevue west of Interstate Highway 405 had the most sales greater than $1 million in the nine-county MLS area. That same area reported the highest number of sales in 2013, followed by Belltown and downtown Seattle. Realtor Teri Herrera said as the economy continues to bounce back,

Strawberry Festival brings berries and more to Crossroads Park this weekend Tens of thousands of people will savor strawberries, view a marketplace of crafts and merchandise and enjoy day-long entertainment as Bellevue’s Strawberry Festival returns to Crossroads International Park this weekend. The two-day event — June 28-29 — pays homage to the area’s long history of strawberries and strawberry growers that last year drew 43,000 people to the park. The event features non-stop entertainment on the Puget Sound Energy Main Stage, strawberry shortcake, hands-on history activities and exhibits presented by Eastside Heritage Center, and fresh produce from local farmers. There will be food for all tastes and over 90 vendor booths featuring everything from hand crafts to home improvement. Saturday features the Around the Sound Jeep Club Jeep Show and Sunday celebrates the past with the annual BECU Classic Auto Show. The Republic Services Family Fun Area will be in action all weekend long with pony rides, inflatable bouncers, face painting, balloons, a train, Power Jump, the Mini-Mountain rock-climbing wall, a big purple slide and more. And, of course, there will be strawberry shortcake eating contests. Free parking and a shuttle will get people to and from the fun. The shuttle bus runs every 15 minutes from Highland Middle School (Bel-Red Road and 148th Avenue Northeast) and Interlake High School (164th Avenue Northeast and Northeast 21st Place). The festival celebrates the region’s agricultural heritage, as well as its culturally diverse past, present and future. The 2010 census data shows that 41 percent of Bellevue residents are minorities (61 percent in the Crossroads area specifically), and 31 percent of Bellevue’s population is foreign born (46 percent in Crossroads). The event is a revival of the original Lake Washington Strawberry Festival begun in 1925 to attract business and residents to Bellevue. A celebration of the region’s bountiful strawberry crops, the festival was cancelled in 1942. Revived on a small scale in 1987, Eastside Heritage Center expanded the festival to a communitywide celebration reminiscent of its roots in 2003. The festival will take place from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Saturday and 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday. Crossroads International Park is located at Northeast Eight Street and 164th Avenue Northeast.

Despite assurances from city staff of the sufficiency of an interim ordinance regulating recreational marijuana retail in Bellevue, the planning commission Wednesday night approved several motions to tighten rules related to pot stores in a final draft to be considered by the public and City Council. The city has been operating under an interim ordinance since October, and the council has directed the planning commission to make recommendations for a final ordinance to be considered for implementation, which appears may be ready for approval by September. The Washington State Liquor Control Board anticipates licensed pot stores can begin sales on July 8. A number of recommendations the commission approved passing on to staff Wednesday — all motions being made by Commission Vice Chairman Aaron Laing — will need to be vetted by staff to determine how restrictive regulations would become for retail pot stores. The council has rejected an option to ban the industry in Bellevue, and is asking the commission to create an ordinance that permits businesses to operate while maintaining public safety. The state liquor board is allowing four retail stores to open in the city, and the top-four lottery winners are still being vetted for licensure, said City Legal Planner Catherine Drews. After Laing successfully passed through a motion to recommend prohibiting marijuana retailers from setting up shop within a quarter-mile of any public or private school — adding 300 feet to the current 1,000foot buffer — Commission Chairwoman Diane Tebelius passed a motion applying the separation requirement to all locations identified in the liquor board rules, such as playgrounds, recreation centers and parks. Staff recommended churches not be considered, as even a 1,000-foot buffer would essentially prohibit retail pot stores anywhere in Bellevue. Laing also successfully argued for prohibiting pot stores in Subdistrict A of

Commission recommending tighter pot store regulations
Interim Bellevue Police Chief Jim Montgomery brought an ounce of marijuana, gummy bears and brownies to Wednesday’s planning commission meeting as visual aids during a discussion about enforcement of recreational pot shops. See story online at www.bellevuereporter.com. BRANDON MACZ, Bellevue Reporter the Downtown Perimeter Design District — there are three such subdistricts that wrap around three sides of downtown — saying these are transition areas between downtown and surrounding single-family neighborhoods. Drews told the commission state law, current regulations and what staff knows about retail didn’t warrant requiring a conditional use permit for marijuana shops, but Laing argued such businesses should be subjected to enhanced review to ensure the public may be involved and to mitigate any concerns of negative impacts that may arise during the review process. City Councilmember John Stokes, liaison to the planning commission, said he’s concerned about implementing special rules for one retail business that is not applied to others. The planning commission will hold a public hearing on the final draft on July 30, before meeting again to make any changes based on community feedback. A public hearing before the City Council is tentatively set for Sept. 6, with a vote slated for Sept. 21. Brandon Macz: 425-453-4602, bmacz@bellevuereporter.com

Bellevue woman’s garden one of five to benefit symphony GET TICKETS
Nancy Davidson Short’s house sits midway on the Hunts Point peninsula, at the end of a winding gravel drive hidden from the main road by a lush wood. Short, 101, purchased the lot in 1938, when it was little more than a summer cottage only accessible from Seattle by boat. During the course of more than seven decades, the retired magazine editor made the house a permanent home, building the cottage into a two-story domicile in which, today, she lives in an apartment below her children. Occupying the pinnacle of a hill that rolls down to the shore of Lake Washington, the property is 60 feet wide and stretches, Short estimates, 600 feet from the road to the water. Every inch of open land has been gardened, transforming the space into a contained floral oasis, bursting with color. The beautiful yard is a product of the lifelong obsession Short inherited from her grandmother, who was “a gardening whiz,” she said. The garden is one of five on a tour Sunday to benefit the Lake Washington Symphony Orchestra. “I discovered (my interest) probably in the 1930s, after I had married,” Short said. “I love plants and I love foliage, particularly.” The garden is also, in part, a monument to Short’s career at Sunset Magazine and the connections she made there. Its design was aided by local horticulturist Jim Fox and nursery operator and four-time gardening author George Schenk, both contacts
Tickets are still available for a private showing of some of the Eastside’s outstanding gardens that will benefit the newly formed Lake Washington Symphony Orchestra. The Symphony of Gardens event will be from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday, June 29. There will be one garden each in Clyde Hill, Hunts Point, and Medina, and two in Kirkland. Descriptions and driving directions will be provided with tickets, which are $25 each and are available at Wells Medina Nursery, 8300 N.E. 24th St., Medina.
from Short’s time at the West Coast lifestyles magazine. In the 1940s, she became the Northwest Editor of Sunset for 20 years beginning in 1955, then Building Editor out of the Menlo Park, Calif. office for another 10 years. Writing as Nancy Davidson, her name and her association with Sunset gave her access into private homes. She recalled one instance in which she attempted a story about patio gardening — a topic Sunset didn’t cover at the time and eventually didn’t make it into the magazine. But she traveled to Portland, Ore., found a condominium with a nice garden, knocked on the door unannounced and, after a short introduction, was whisked inside for a long and friendly conversation about the owner’s deckside flora. That was the level of attention and trust Sunset had among west coasters. “It was written on the premise that western life is different from life elsewhere in Ameri-
ca,” she said. “I think maybe it’s the spaciousness that makes it different. I really do think each state has a personality … People who come out west are risk takers. They’re taking a risk coming out here.” Of her native plants, Short is particularly fond of trilliums and, like any good Pacific Northwesterner, maintains a batch of rhododendrons. The rhodies at the south end of her yard are hybrid clones that have thrived for three decades — young for the possible life span of the plant, but the species’ survival requires careful protection against mildew. Short said, a little humbly, she considers the garden a little overgrown and rough around
the edges, compared to how she maintained it in years past. She can’t put fingers to dirt like she used to, and brings in helpers three times a week. Still, a group of friends of the Bellevue Philharmonic Orchestra believed the home to be more than impressive enough for its Symphony of the Gardens fundraiser, several years ago that now benefiots the Lake Washington orchestra. With the group’s revival as the Lake “I’m interested in music, I’m interested in art and culture, and I think it’s high time Bellevue had a symphony orchestra,” Short said.

Safe and sane fireworks? Be smart instead and let professionals do the job
W
e’re a week away from one of the grandest days in the year – the Fourth of July. The day offers a variety of exciting community activities in both Bellevue and Newcastle. It also presents an unnecessary danger to the community in the form of illegal fireworks. All of the cities in the Reporter’s circulation area flat out the use of fireworks. And, for good reason. The sad truth is that as exciting as it is to see and hear them explode, each year scores or more people nationally will be hurt, disfigured or killed by our fixation with fireworks. There’s no reason to put ourselves of those we love at risk, given the wide variety of July Fourth community events that provide excitement that is both safe and sane. Around here, Bellevue has the Eastside’s largest celebration, starting off with a fun dog walk at 9 a.m. at Ashwood Park near the Bellevue Regional Library and then shifting to a full day of fun at the Downtown park from 2 p.m. and a spectacular fireworks show at 10 p.m. From 2-10 p.m. the park will be filled with a family fun zone, ongoing music from several groups at the main stage, a presentation of the Colors by the Bellevue Fire Department Honor Guard, the National Anthem sung by the Bellevue High School choir and a special Independence Day performance by the Bellevue Youth Symphony Orchestra leading into the fireworks show itself with the youth symphony playing music to match the display. To the south, Newcastel has its own community event, again topped by fireworks at night over Lake Boren Park. But before that, you’ll find food, fun and music starting at 6 p.m. All together, the two cities provide not only safe and sane events, but also those that are fun for everyone. – Craig Groshart, Bellevue Reporter

Water quality
Inslee fishing for a solution
F
inesse is a word rarely used to describe Gov. Jay Inslee’s approach to fashioning policy. More likely, one hears the first-term governor’s style portrayed as passionate and visionary by fans, disengaged and blunt-force-partisan by critics. Yet in the matter of setting water quality standards based on how much fish residents consume, Inslee has displayed a greater degree of forbearance than on any issue he’s publicly confronted. From his first day in Jerry Cornfield office, Inslee and his advisors have searched for the sweet spot of political consensus on increasing the existing fish consumption rate without triggering a standard for cleaner water discharges that no amount of technology can meet. He’s wanted to please his newest friends in the tribes and closest ones in the environmental community. He’s wanted to win back old friends in the labor community, especially Machinists.

Question of the week:
But he’s wanted to avoid alienating those he’s been trying to befriend in the corporate world, from Wall Street behemoths like Boeing to Main Street startups around the state. He’s still working out the details. When he does finally put forward a proposal — maybe before heading to the Farnborough Air Show in England in mid-July — no one will be completely satisfied. Last week, in comments to tribal leaders, Inslee provided a sneak preview of where he’ll end up. First, the fish consumption rate will rise significantly, as tribes and environmentalists demand. Today it assumes residents eat an average of 6.5 grams of fish per day, which works out to be equivalent to an eight-ounce fillet per month. All indications are that Inslee will endorse boosting it to 175 grams a day. Second, the state might reset what is known as the cancer-risk rate. Currently, state law assumes no more than one person out of 1 million will get cancer from eating fish caught in Washington waters. If left unchanged when the fish SEE CORNFIELD, 5

Background checks needed
Your June 13 editorial cartoon suggests a misunderstanding regarding the effectiveness of background checks prior to purchasing firearms. A visit to the Federal Bureau of Investigation website informs us that since 1998 the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) has led to the denial of permits in over 1,100,000 cases. Many of the applicants, slightly over 56 percent, were convicted felons. Other denials were issued to known domestic abusers or to fugitives from justice. In February of this year the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence issued a 20th anniversary report, based upon statistics obtained from the Department of Justice. Since the Brady SEE LETTERS, 5

Law went into effect in 1994 some 2.1 million gun purchases have been blocked. Surely thousands of lives have been saved as a result of these background checks. Tragically the Brady Law applies to only 60 percent of gun purchases in our country. About 40 percent of gun sales occur at unregulated gun shows or online by unlicensed individuals. The attempt to strengthen background check regulations in 2013 was met with fierce resistance by the National Rifle Association and other gun lobbies. Under these circumstances it is easy to comprehend why some who are mentally ill can still able acquire a weapon so easily. The recent shootings at Seattle Pacific University, perhaps the inspiration for your cartoon, were horrifying, but unfortunately not surprising given the current state of gun regulation in the United States. Contrary to the implication of the cartoon, more stringent background checks would undoubtedly save more lives. Recent polls have indicated that nine out of 10 Americans support background checks

Cartoon on guns wrong
The Bellevue Downtown Livability Advisory Committee voted on June 18 to recommend increasing building heights in nearly the entire downtown Bellevue district. The excuse is improved aesthetics and amenities. There was no evidence the current plan isn’t working. Development in Bellevue is booming, so why change? These undefined benefits come at a heavy price. Most people don’t make those kind of deals unless they are receiving the benefit and aren’t paying the price. The quality of life will

Your June 13 editorial cartoon is disgraceful. Not only is it a insult to the people of our community who suffer from mental illness and their families, but also an attempt to undermine support for Initiative 594 which will require background checks on all gun sales. While universal background checks may not have prevented the recent tragedy at Seattle Pacific University (the case to which I’m sure your cartoon alludes), the facts are that in states where such laws have been enacted, gun-related deaths are down substantially from periods prior to those laws taking effect. Freedom of speech is one thing, disregard for common decency in quite another. As Marion Wright Edelman so eloquently reminded the graduating class at SPU in her compassionate address to them,

suffer for the undesired changes. The resident’s wish list was ignored, while developers and realtors get richer. Shouldn’t livability describe the needs of the people? Our biggest impacts on livability are infrastructure and government. The proposed changes will increase congestion, do nothing about parking, and impinge on neighborhoods. Laws are a protection for the people by the government. After creating my home and developing a community, the Livability Committee wants to change the rules and threaten my quality of life. That’s not fair. The residents of downtown Bellevue are asking why? We already have a plan, and it’s better than the new plan. Stick to the plan.

consumption rate is boosted, it would mean stricter rules on toxins in discharged water. Cities and companies say stricter rules cannot be met. If Inslee doesn’t endorse reducing this cancer risk to one in 100,000 people, as he could, he’ll leave dischargers of water, including companies and municipalities, lots of leeway to mollify their worries. And third, Inslee is poised to use the fish consumption debate as a springboard to a different but related problem — of pollutants getting into rivers and waterways from sources the state doesn’t now control. This so-called nonpoint source pollution occurs when runoff from rain or melting snow carries oil, grease, toxic chemicals and other pollutants into lakes, rivers, coastal waters and aquifers. “We could do this a thousand grams a day, 10 to the minus 20, but it still wouldn’t solve this problem of toxicity that our children and grandchildren are exposed to, because this permit system doesn’t encompass the vast majority of sources for these toxins,” Inslee told tribal leaders. He said officials are trying to come up with ways to keep such pollutants “out of the stream of commerce so they don’t get into our water. And I have come to see this (fish consumption) rule as something that, if we do it right, it can have a larger impact on the reduction of toxicities that our families are exposed to. That’s one of the reasons it is taking us longer than we would have liked to actually propose the rule.” If it ends up working, Inslee might find finesse is a better method than force for his priorities.

Erez Benari wanted to do something special for the Jewish Community — he wanted to make them laugh. A comedian from Issaquah, Benari will host Nick Decktor, Paul Barach, Tyler Schnupp, Rome Davis and Ron Reid as they perform in one-time show Guilty Giggle. The show will be centered on the comedians’ self-deprecating humor, poking fun at themselves and their Jewish heritage. “Like how Jewish mothers always want
their sons to be doctors or lawyers,” he said. “It’s a common theme.” Or how mothers use guilt to control. “A classic example is the mother sitting home in the dark, saying ‘don’t worry about me, I’ll be fine,’” Benari said. The Guilty Giggle show will premiere at 8 p.m. Sunday, June 29, at Parlor Live in Bellevue, with doors open at 6:30 p.m. Parlor Live is located at 700 Bellevue Way N.E. in Lincoln Square. Tickets are $15 or $25 for VIP seating. Tickets will be available at the door or in advance at parlorlive.com .

TEACHER OF THE YEAR
Electric floorboard goes national BY DANIEL NASH BELLEVUE REPORTER
Newport High School junior Amrita Ram was one of six teenage tycoons to compete June 12 in the Young Entrepreneurs Academy Saunders Scholars Competition in Washington, D.C. In May, Ram was the winner of the Bellevue Chamber of Commerce’s YEA! investor panel. She was a mem-
ber of the first class of young entrepreneurs organized by the chamber. Ram is the CEO of Fresh Steps, a company developing piezoelectric floor tiles. Piezoelectric materials produce an electric charge when pressure is applied. In theory, a high-traffic building with piezoelectric flooring could be powered by the people walking inside. The junior’s win in Bellevue took her to Frisco, Texas for the Western
Regional YEA! semifinals. Her victory there put her ahead of hundreds of competitors to become one of the half-dozen finalists in the nation’s capital. The first class of the Bellevue Young Entrepreneurs Academy, made up of 22 students in grades 6-12 in the Bellevue School District, will graduate in a ceremony at a date to be determined.

In addition, the class of the nominating student will receive a coupon for a free Kidd Valley Kids Meal and admission to Imagine Children’s Museum in Everett. COURTESY PHOTO, Kidd Valley
Interlake High School student Alexander Doran was one of 304 students worldwide to attend the Honeywell Leadership Challenge Academy in March. The scholarship program promotes STEM education and leadership skills at the U.S. Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, Ala. The program uses interactive technology, science-oriented workshops and team exercises to teach children of Honeywell employees skills in science, technology, engineering, and math.
During the program, the students met scientists, engineers and former astronauts who shared their their first-hand professional experiences. They also were able to simulate jet pilot training, develop space missions and design, build and test their own rockets. “Our goal is to continue to develop a new generation of leaders, engineers, and scientists who can address the challenges of tomorrow,” said Tom Buckmaster, president, Honeywell Hometown Solutions.

Understanding the Millennial effect
Chinese aeronautics company buys property near Spring District Supernova Aeronautic Technology plans affordable housing, office space
BY DANIEL NASH BELLEVUE REPORTER
Did all Millennials receive trophies just for showing up? Yes. Are they inseparable from their computers and smart phones? Sure. Do they expect immediate gratification in all things? You bet. But are these qualities a sign of a generation in decay? According to pollster John Zogby: not on your life. On the contrary, they are the first generation of “global citizens,” highly aware of the world at large and highly motivated to improve their community — though “community” is, to them, a fluidly defined thing. Zogby was invited June 29 to speak about Millennials — people born between 1979 and 1994 who grew up during the dawn of the 21st Century — at the Bellevue Chamber of Commerce’s 2014 Eastside Leadership Conference, held at the Microsoft Conference Center in Redmond. He is the founder of the “Zogby Poll” and Zogby International, as well as a man who earned the public’s attention after predicting the 1996 presidential election with a high degree of accuracy. He is now a senior analyst at his son’s firm, Zogby Analytics, and the co-author of “The First Globals: Understanding, Managing, and Unleashing Our Millennial Generation.” Zogby sees Millennials as a generation that, based on its responses to public opinion surveys, is both vastly different from all older living generations and vastly misunderstood by those groups. “When we’re in our 20s, it’s all about me,” he said. “That’s typical. That’s how it’s been for the last 200 years. Too much of the criticism of Millennials is coming from people

who just don’t understand that this is how things are for 20-somethings, for the most part.” The problem is that many have failed to grasp the qualities that will define the Millennials as an age cohort, as opposed to their current age group, Zogby said. He recalled a story told by his favorite economics professor, a veteran who shared stories about his time in World War II eagerly and often. The professor had spent the evening of Dec. 6, 1941 in his college dorm with friends, talking about girls, sports, beer and then girls again. The morning of Dec. 8, that same group of friends excitedly met again… in the line to sign up for the military draft. “With World War II, that age group of 20-somethings
Chinese investor Supernova Aeronautic Technology LLC closed on a $5.25 million purchase of an office complex Monday across from the burgeoning Spring District. The District is planned to retain office space and include the addition of 50 units of affordable housing on 124th Avenue Northeast. Mediary Tim Lee of the Bellevue Chinese Chamber of Commerce said Supernova sees a need for affordable housing to complement the anticipated increase in employment at the Spring District over the next 20 years. This will be the first of many investments Supernova anticipates making in Bellevue, he said, and will include another $8 million in renovations. Plans for the office building, which was purchased from Billy-Joe Park LLC at 1000 124th Ave. N.E., includes increasing the building height to about 45 feet and expanding the property to include affordable housing and additional office space, Lee said. Housing units will be a mix of oneand two-bedroom apartments. Bellevue Councilmember Conrad Lee, who while mayor last year joined Washington Gov. Jay Inslee on a trip to China to promote building a stronger economic relationship between the state and country, said Wednesday he

Prep squads work to prepare for fall on gridiron
Throckmorton, DL; Wells, DB
Saints trying to climb in KingCo
BY JOSH SUMAN BELLEVUE REPORTER
Spring football has concluded for prep squads in Bellevue, with summer conditioning and passing camps the last step before fall camp in late August. The Reporter takes an early look at Bellevue, Newport, Interlake and Sammamish, starting with the 3A state champ Wolverines. 2013 season: Bellevue captured another 3A state title, their sixth straight, beating Eastside Catholic in the championship game for the second straight year and finishing another undefeated campaign. Early outlook: The prognosis for a seventh straight state title is a good one, as a host of returning stars lead a team with a championship pedigree. What’s more, the top conference contender in recent years — Mount Si — moves to Class 4A in 2014, leaving an even thinner KingCo field to challenge the Wolverines. The biggest test of the year will likely come in the season opener against Serra (Gardena, Calif) in the Honor Bowl, which will feature a host of games over a week and also give players a chance to learn about veterans. All-KingCo losses: First team offense: Morgan Richey, OL; Chris Medzegian, OL; Marcus Griffin, OL (Lineman of the Year); First team defense: Griffin, DL; Shane Bowman, DL; Timmy Haehl, DB; Budda Baker, DB (Defensive Player of the Year); Second team defense: Rio Morales, LB; Special teams: Baker, Punt returner, Kick returner of the year; Jack Michael, special teams Player of the Year All-KingCo returners: First team offense: Sam Richmond, RB; Second team offense: Henry Roberts, OL; Isaiah Gilchrist, DB
Knights, Oliver after repeat state trip
2013 season: Newport endured an up-and-down regular season, losing a lopsided game to rival Issaquah
Newport head coach Drew Oliver, who enters his first year as the head coach at his alma mater, talks with a player during spring practice. JOSH SUMAN, Bellevue Reporter before reaching the 4A state tournament and shocking Lake Stevens in the first round. The Knights built a large lead against Bellarmine Prep in the quarterfinals, before suffering a gut-wrenching defeat in the final seconds. Early outlook: The Knights lose a workhorse running back (and linebacker) in Conner Baumann, and welcome a new head coach in Drew Oliver, as they look to climb in the new-look 4A KingCo. 4A KingCo changes in a major way in 2014, as Garfield, Roosevelt and Ballard leave the league, while Mount Si joins Class 4A. The conference will not feature two separate divisions, and will use a round-robin schedule in football. All-KingCo losses: First Team offense: Conner Baumann, RB (Offensive Player of the Year); Nolan Anderson, OL; First Team defense: Bennett Long, DL; Second Team defense: Tariq Muhammad, LB All-KingCo returners: First Team offense: Cal Throckmorton (Lineman of the Year); Second Team offense: Paul Wells, RB; Nolan Richardson, OL; Second Team defense:

2013 season: Interlake ended the season on a positive note, beating Ingraham 25-18 in a crossover game to earn their lone victory on the year. The Saints struggled throughout the KingCo schedule in head coach Dave Meyers’ first year, dropping their first nine games by an average of more than five touchdowns per contest. Interlake also saw the Crossroads Cup change hands, as rival Sammamish won a 21-7 game to reclaim the trophy. Early outlook: Interlake will break in a new quarterback, and be tasked with finding playmakers on the offense as they look to close the gap in 2A/3A KingCo. The Saints have been fighting an uphill battle on the gridiron for the better part of the past three decades, save for the four-year stint in Class 2A. Mount Si’s move out of Class 3A helps thin the herd, but nationally ranked and six-time defending state champ Bellevue still runs the block, and the Saints have to climb over the likes of Liberty, Juanita and Mercer Island to contend for a round of 32 playoff spot. All-KingCo losses: Honorable mention defense: Brandon Hahulu, Aiden Lawler All-KingCo returners: Honorable mention offense: De’Jhion Parrish
Totems turning to new head coach
2013 season: Sammamish beat rival Interlake last year for the first time since 2006, also marking the Totems’ first conference win since the 2011 season. But that was the lone high point for Sammamish, which finished 1-9 overall and with losses to four Class 2A squads. Early outlook: The Totems turn to a new head coach in Todd Craig, formerly an assistant at Bellevue, and Craig has already begun to see positive returns during offseason weightlifting and workouts. Translating that dedication into wins during the fall will be another task entirely if they hope to earn their first playoff berth in more than a decade. But building a contender among the Class 2A ranks in a similar vein to rival Interlake during its recent run of state success is not out of the realm of possibility, especially with Lake Washington returning to 3A in 2014 (Liberty will be classified in 2A and battle with the Totems in KingCo). All-KingCo losses: Honorable mention offense: Terrence Allen, QB; Kendrick McVay, WR; Yung Sung Nam; Honorable mention defense: Max Hummer All-KingCo returners: None

It’s summer – break out the vinegar Summer is officially here, which means it's time to plan those outdoor gatherings with friends. High on the list should be cool, new drinks to impress the guests.
Fresh fruit is a good starting point for an afternoon cocktail, and adding sparking water, Champagne or Prosecco adds a nice fizz to the festivities. Oh, and don't forget the vinegar. That's right: today's subtle-flavored vinegars are a far cry from the lippuckering stuff you may remember. There exist a wide variety of more
exotic types of vinegar, said Debbie Gokhan, vice president and COO of Oil & Vinegar at Bellevue Square. "Think of it as a syrup,” she said. While relatively new, many cocktail lounges have balsamic drinks on their menu. SEE VINEGAR, 15

was in grade school, riding in the car alone with my mother one evening, when she decided it was time for The Talk. I couldn’t escape and she knew it. The conversation felt awkward, because I already knew far more than she knew I did, thanks to the grapevine on the playground at school. What I knew may not have been solid biology, but I had a general idea of how things worked. I listened quietly for fear I’d get in trouble for knowing too much, but also because I hoped she could fill in a few pieces to the puzzle about where babies come from. Because she was a nurse, everything was explained in tidy, clinical terms. These were terms that only appeared in medical texts, Darcy Brixey not the schoolyard. What she didn’t have to worry about was teaching her children about sex and body image in a digital age where the mixed messages about sex and sexuality are difficult to avoid. I think back to that first awkward conversation and have started one of many dialogues with my own children. It’s not easy to bring up the topic and every kid is different. I’ve brought home books and given them information on an as-needed basis, but I’m not always sure if I’m giving them enough. The Bellevue and Lake Hills libraries will be hosting programs to support teens and parents of teens in these conversations. Becky Reitzes, a sexual health educator with Public Health Seattle-King County, will give parents and teens the resources they need to encourage discussions about safe and healthy relationships. Reitzes has provided training to healthcare providers, community agencies and school district staff as well as parents and young people about sexual health issues. She is also a co-author of the Family Life and Sexual Health (FLASH) curriculum and the KNOW curriculum. Parents can meet at the Bellevue Library at 7 p.m. Tuesday, July 15, for a presentation called “How to Talk to Your Kids About Sex.” Another program, “Dating Basics - Healthy Relationships for Teens,” will be held at the Lake Hills Library at 2 p.m. Wednesday, July 23. My own children aren’t particularly interested in talking about “kissing and stuff ” yet, but I want to arm them with correct information. It will be their best defense for the choices they will make in their lives.

The Oil & Vinegar shop has been "dabbling in it for a while," said Matt Stermer, the store's CEO.

became the age cohort we call ‘The Greatest Generation,’” Zogby said. It came to be defined by a sense of patriotism and duty. The Baby Boomers, raised with a sense of patriotism, but exposed by television to civil rights demonstrations, became questioners of the “universality of America’s good.” Generation X was raised at a time of economic strife and rising divorce, prompting them to become the most independent and libertarian of all generations. For Millennials, the defining historic environment is the unprecedented evolution and connectedness of technology, Zogby said. “I’ll start — in the unlikeliest of spaces — with MTV,” he said. “I saw MTV evolve from 24 hours of annoying video into MTV News.

Young people all over the world. And they learned about Amnesty International, and Human Rights Watch. They learned about other people and other cultures. Not as The Other but as people just like us.” Politically, they may be shifting away from conservatism and liberalism toward libertarianism and communitarianism — “softer” ideologies with less emphasis on government and more room for communication between them. The secret of the generation, in terms of their relationship to the workplace, is that many of the Millennials’ perceived shortcomings are hidden advantages, Zogby said. Their ambitions have shifted from recognition for individual achievement toward recognition as part of their team. Yes, Millennials crave immediate gratification. But Millennials are more likely to search for a solution horizontally within their networks than run it upstairs to “watch it die somewhere along the chain,” Zogby said. “That is the only reason I am hopeful about this world,” he said. “Because hierarchy and bureaucracy are at their end. They don’t work anymore. The biggest corporations in the world are creating teams (that work
horizontally).” Perhaps the most important detail about Millennials in the workplace is that their generation gap with the Baby Boomers, unlike the Boomers’ gap with the Greatest Generation, is only a temporary phenomenon tied to a slow-growth economy. Polling data has shown that a sizable portion of Millennials currently see Boomers as “in the way,” occupying jobs that would open up if they retired; Meanwhile, Boomers with longer healthy life spans have no reason or desire to go gently into that good night. Citing the book “Fuse,” by Jim Finkelstein, Zogby argued Millennials exhibit an overriding desire for mentorship in the workplace from their Boomer counterparts. And Boomers desire to be mentors. As the economy bounces back and makes room for both generations, the gap will all but disappear. “When someone comes to me and I’m posed with a problem that involves technology, I simply say ‘You have to talk to Chad,’” Zogby said about the environment in Zogby Analytics. “There are no 65-to-70-year-olds named Chad. When Chad ‘dies,’ I die with him … just as I need him, he needs me to facilitate and explain this world to him.” Daniel Nash: 425-453-4290; dnash@bellevuereporter.comº

The Bellevue Police Department has set a goal to hire 20 new officers through its 2014 recruitment campaign. The “Protect this City” campaign will aim to replace officers lost to retirement and promotion. Entry-level hires must first pass a battery of written and physical tests, which can take several months to clear, as well as an in-depth background check. New hires will await a spot at the state police academy in Burien before returning for several weeks of field training. Once all of those hurdles are cleared, a new officer will operate under a probationary period of one year. Veteran officers looking to join Bellevue’s ranks may require state accreditation but the process is not as lengthy as for new officers, said Bellevue Police Ofc. Carla Iafrate. “We’re really just trying to get up to speed with this first 20,” she said. “It’s a long process, but a very rewarding career.” There is no deadline in place for applications. Prospective applicants are encouraged to call the department’s recruitment hotline at 425-452-4BPD (4273) or send questions to BPDJOBS@BELLEVUEWA.GOV.

hen domestic violence is in the news, it’s usually after the worst has happened: a violent assault, an injured child, a murder. So it’s no surprise that when we think about domestic violence interventions we think about police, courts, and hospitals. But what about the role each of us can play? Many of us have either experienced abuse in our own relationships or know someone who has. And often we don’t know what to do about it. Fortunately, in this community, and in every community across Washington State, there is a local domestic violence program: a place where anyone can call—privately and at no cost—to talk with someone about concerns, options, and safety. You don’t have to be the person experiencing abuse to call. Advocates are there to talk with friends and family, neighbors and c ow o r k e r s — a ny o n e — about how to be supportive if someone turns to you for help. But what if we didn’t have to wait until things were awful to intervene? What if we could stop this violence before it started? Domestic violence is preventable and talking with people of all ages about relationships is a key part of prevention. No one is too young or too old to think about what a healthy relationship looks and feels like. It’s never too early, and it’s never too late, to talk about how we deserve to be treated. Conversations build expectations, and talking with our loved ones lets us in on what they’re going through. Imagine how much easier it would be for our friends to turn to us for help if talking about our relationships was something we already did. To find the domestic violence program in your community, visit wscadv. org or call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233 or 1-800787-3224 (TTY). To raise money and awareness for domestic violence prevention, register today for the Refuse To Abuse® 5K at Safeco Field at refusetoabuse5k.org.

with stiff competition for a limited inventory of homes, which Herrera said is a product of the recession. "The big challenge with new construction is when the market went into decline there were so many home builders caught with that standing inventory," she said, adding builders scrapped development projects and land options at that time. "What's happening now is those builders are scrambling to find land, and everyone's competing for the land that's out there." In Herrera's experience, she said move-away buyers are hesitant to put their homes on the market, worried it will sell quick and leave
them looking for interim housing. Competitive bidding for homes in Bellevue has resulted in purchasing prices as high as $200,000 over the original asking price. One client, a foreign investor, buys properties for rentals and recently competed in three negotiations totaling 32 competitive offers. "In each case we were the winning offer, but we also were offering cash, no inspection, no finance contingency and 10-day closing," Herrera said. Many homebuyers worry about being able to compete. "There's just not a lot of good deals to be had," said CoCo Fulton with Windermere, who said alternatives include short sales and auc-

tions. "They come at just such a risk." Fulton advises homebuyers to be flexible entering the market. A new listing may seem appealing, but she said buyers can expect to pay 2-4 percent more than the asking price. "After it's been on the market for about 20 days, then I get excited because I think I can get a better deal," Fulton said. While new construction did take a hit in the recession, Fulton said there is now a huge demand for new construction. It allows the move-away buyer to know when their closing date will be and gives them time to put their current home on the market.
"Many of my sellers, who are moving from one house to downsize or even upgrade to a bigger house, are moving toward new construction," she said. Herrera and Fulton recommend move-away buyers look at using equity from their homes to help finance the purchase of their new property. They said setting the proper expectations through research and market experts will alleviate buyer's remorse and concerns about where they'll be when the sale of their former homes have closed. "I don't think buyers should go into the market thinking they're going to make five or six offers, that's not true," said Herrera.

Firewood, Fuel & Stoves
NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d b u y e r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood. When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle. The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a c o r d by v i s u a l i z i n g a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet. Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.
