Details still need to be ironed out on Swedish development deal

A NEW STANDARD Local teachers prepare for Common Core State Standards

BY KEVIN ENDEJAN KENDEJAN@ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM

nne Steindorf has taught math in three different states and she’s always amazed at the contrast.

“Kids are in different places in different states,” she said. A seventh-grade math and geometry teacher at Inglewood Middle School in Sammamish, Steindorf said she’s looking forward to the changes the Lake Washington School District and all schools across the state are making for the 2013-14 academic year. The Common Core State Standards will replace current Washington state standards for English language arts and mathematics with the goal of better preparing students for college and to compete in a global economy. “I think the aim of Common Core is a good one, to make education in this country rigorous enough for all kids to be where they need to be to be successful in college and the work place,” said Steindorf who has also taught in New York and Texas. Until now, all 50 states had their own set

“If everybody’s teaching to the same level across the country ... how could it not be better?” - Anne Steindorf, teacher of learning expectations for students. They were difficult to compare to one another, let alone the rest of the world. As of this year, 45 states have adopted the Common Core State Standards. Full implementation, including new state standardized tests, will be complete by the 2014-15 school year. “It’s still going to be a while before it all settles out, but this is sort of that pivot point where we’ve gone to talking about it,” said Kathryn Reith, Lake Washington School District spokeswoman.

A video describing Common Core compares the program to a staircase with stops along the way where parents and teachers can make sure all children are on the same page before moving on to the next level. Steindorf said she and the rest of the Inglewood math department started preparing for the changes last year. She said there won’t be many changes for their department because many of the curriculums already align with Common Core, but it will vary from subject to subject and grade to grade. “We’ve all had to say, ‘We’re not going to do this based on Common Core, or it becomes an enrichment piece if we have time,’” Steindorf said. Pierina Austin teaches Kindergarten through Second Grade Continuous Learning at Sammamish’s Margaret Mead Elementary. She said the focus of her courses now will shift to more nonfiction reading — nearly a 50/50 split. “There’s a lot more that we’re going to be learning and a lot more that were going to be implementing,” she said, noting there will be a heavy emphasis on understanding habitats SEE STANDARDS, 2

There were more questions than answers at Tuesday’s meeting of the Urban Village Development Commission regarding Swedish Hospital’s proposed expansion. There are no critical areas on the site, but according to the city’s land development manager, Lucy Sloman, a new SEPA (state environmental policy act) checklist will be required. Swedish has to come up with a storm water plan and an environmental review needs to be completed before the development agreement is done. Water and sewer improvements are the responsibility of Swedish, and storm water collection would have to meet city requirements, said Keith Niven, the city’s economic development director. Niven said if Swedish’s storm water goes into the Lower Reid Infiltration Gallery (LRIG) it would be the city’s responsibility, however if it goes into a whirlpool, Swedish is responsible. Maximum height of buildings is consistent with the rest of the Issaquah Highlands at 85-feet, with the exception of SEE SWEDISH, 7

Long-time Issaquah couple in need of support HOW YOU CAN HELP

BY LINDA BALL LBALL@ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM

Larry and Tara Church still live in the home Larry bought in 1976, two years before they were married. You may know Larry since he has worked on the Plateau for both Safeway and QFC since 1975, the past 12 years as the meat department manager at the Klahanie QFC. Tara has worked for the Issaquah School District for the last 18 years, the last eight years as the kitchen manager at Issaquah High School. Then last year, that normal life took a turn. Early in 2012 Larry wasn’t feeling well. He thought he had mononucleosis. Instead, it was CML Leukemia, a blood cancer that grows abnormal white blood cells that won’t die. Virginia Mason oncology put him on an oral chemotherapy,which costs $8,000 a month. Fortunately, it was covered by insurance and he was doing well and still able to work. Then, several months later, the Leukemia morphed. “Blood cancer is very creative,” Tara said. “You learn to stop it in one way — but it was back.” After doing some research on his own, Larry was accepted into a clinical trial on a drug called Ponatinib. Tara said some of the side effects were rough and he was

To help Larry, the community is having a huge, benefit garage sale on Friday and Saturday, Aug. 23 and 24 at 26574 SE 15th St. in Sammamish. Cash donations may be given to Kathy Boll at the garage sale. Also, a “Benevolent account for Larry Church” has been set up at BECU. The local branch in Issaquah is at 735 NW Gilman Blvd. People also can make donations at www.helphopelive.org. Once on the site, type in Larry Church and you will be directed to his page.

Leukemia has put Issaquah’s Larry and Tara Church in a financial crunch. CONTRIBUTED progressing slowly. But this was his last chance. The drug was approved by the FDA right before he started on it, so again, insurance

covered the drug. It didn’t work. He developed two other mutations of the Leukemia. His body went into the third

stage of the disease called blast. According to the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance, abnormal blasts begin to take over the bone marrow and prevent production of adequate numbers of other types of blood cells, such as platelets, red blood cells and healthy white blood cells. Production of leukemic blasts may get so out of hand that the immature cells spill out from the bone marrow into the circulation. Larry was given high doses of chemotherapy for six days to burn out his bone marrow. He then got a bone marrow transplant from his brother, who was a perfect match. He’s on the mend, but his platelets, red and white blood cells, are burned out, which has left him with the immune system of a newborn baby. “If he were to get shingles it would very likely kill him,” Tara said. He is a carrier of the shingles virus.

around the world. Kids also will use technology to obtain new information — something Austin said she implemented for the first time last year when students got to Skype with someone at Microsoft to better understand their studies. Reith said many teachers in the LWSD like Steindorf and Austin started preparing themselves for the changes last year. Another 250 did study work over the summer. The changes impact math and language arts teachers from kindergarten through 12th grade. She said a lot of

districts, including the LWSD, have held off on communication about the new standards because they were still learning about them. “I think by October most parents in our district will have heard of it and by the end of the year people should be pretty comfortable with it,” she said. Steindorf said she doesn’t feel handcuffed by the new standards and looks forward to watching it all play out. “If everybody’s teaching to the same level across the country … if we all have the same goal, how could it not be better?” she asked.

Now the couple is on day 59 of 100 days in isolation at a sterile transplant house near the University of Washington hospital. The sterile house is $1,800 a month, plus the Church’s have their home to take care of in Issaquah. They can’t take the risk of him being exposed to anything and he needs to be close to the hospital because even if he gets a fever they need to be in the hospital within 30 minutes. But the clock is ticking on his insurance because once he is out of isolation, he will need four more months of 24/7 care. His insurance runs out in September and Tara, as his caregiver, will not be able to work until possibly January 2014. He’ll live, but the couple could be wiped out financially.

Catching up with County Council member Kathy Lambert BY LINDA BALL LBALL@ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM

A majority of Kathy Lambert’s district on the King County Council is home to bears, deer and other wildlife. And while each district has roughly the same population – 214,000 – Lambert’s territory extends east to the county line where there is nothing except roads and critters. Redmond, the northern part of Issaquah, Sammamish, Duvall and the town of Skykomish (population 202) fall into District 3, as does a number of county, state and federal lands in unincorporated King County. As the district with the most county roads, transportation is a key concern for Lambert. “We have 567 miles (of roads) in District 3, and only enough money to overlay 15 miles,” she said. “Most are asphalt, and not in good repair to the point of being dangerous.” Issaquah-Fall City Road, which has been a topic of conversation in the Klahanie annexation discussion, is in Lambert’s district. She said there was money in the budget three times to expand the road and it still hasn’t happened. As roads deteriorate, it costs more and more as time goes by to repair them. For example, routine maintenance on a good road is $42.97 a square yard, where roads that are at a much lower rating can cost the county and taxpayers $152 a square yard to maintain. Lambert said roads need to be a priority in King County

Kathy Lambert and she will continue to make a case for improved funding. Lambert, who serves as the chair for the council’s law, justice, heath and human services committee, has advocated for a program that uses technology extensively to speed up paperwork in the courtrooms, called court of the future. Courtroom 854 in the county courthouse is the only one with the technology so far, which includes remote testimony. Lambert hopes to expand the program, and will be attending a court technology conference next month. Justice and safety accounts for 76 percent of the county’s general fund. Lambert was instrumental in bring-

ing Safe Place to King County as a way to give at-risk youth a place to go if they are in danger, or just have nowhere to go. Safe Places now include all Metro buses, all Sound Transit buses, every library in the King County library system and all branches of the YMCA. Waste to Energy has been another program Lambert is passionate about. She traveled to Hamburg, Germany, to see how that city is converting garbage into energy. With the Cedar Hill landfill set to close in 2024, she started looking at other ways to deal with trash since the only alternative to the landfill is longhaul exporting of garbage. Lambert said in Hamburg they burn the garbage in kilns that reach 1,800 degrees Celsius. It comes out clean, then they use bottom ash for roads and fly ash to solidify cement. “Germany is considered the most progressive country on garbage control,” she said. Although garbage tonnage in King County has declined with more people

recycling, she wants to build a plant similar to the one she visited, noting that several mayors are already onboard. They are interviewing two companies right now to get ideas on how to move forward with waste to energy. The plant in Hamburg powers 37,000 homes. “Garbage has to be considered a renewable resource,” Lambert said. Lambert, who was first elected to the County Council in 2001, is proud of the fact that the county’s budget has the highest credit rating possible – AAA — and she is committed to budgets that don’t vary dramatically. She supports stable budgets that come from prudent spending decisions. When asked how she felt about county commissioners being elected at large rather than by district, she thought that was a “terrible” idea because unincorporated areas would be abandoned. Lambert is unopposed in November’s general election. Staff writer Linda Ball can be reached at 425-391-0363, ext. 5052.

WINNERS

Eastlake Little League team deserves everyone’s applause

s we write this, we don’t know if the Eastlake Little League made it to the finals of the Little League World Series. Our press deadline was before the team played on Thursday. Nevertheless, they’re winners. With their backs against the wall, the players won two games in two consecutive days to keep them in the running for the U.S. title and a chance to play the winner of the international bracket. “Wow” doesn’t come close to what the Sammamish community must be feeling. Watching them play, it’s easy to forget that they’re still kids. Their skills are sharp, the grasp of the game complete and their will to win firmly embedded in each of them. Whatever the final outcome of this World Series, the team, its coaches and the parents and friends who have supported them through the entire undertaking deserve our applause. And a citywide celebration wouldn’t be so bad, either.

... AND A LOSS

lsewhere on this page, Kevin Endejan, assistant editor of the Issaquah & Sammamish Reporter, says his goodbye to us and the community as he leaves for the next chapter in his life. Make that chapters. On Monday he moves from his world of sports and news writing to a technical writing job with a Fortune 500 company. Obviously, that company knew a good thing when it saw it. At almost the same time, he’s going to become a father. Instead of counting down the weeks, he and his wife are now marking days off the calendar. We wish him all the best and success. He’s earned it by his dedication to the job and the community. – Craig Groshart, Issaquah & Sammamish Reporter

Goodbye and thanks for memories

s I sit writing this column, the cheesy video for the ‘90s hit from Boyz II Men, “It’s So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday,” instantly comes to mind. The group’s three members stand around a coffin sadly serenading times lost, finally dumping out a 40 oz. bottle of some sort of liquid (presumably malt liquor) on the camera from a first-person perspective. On Aug. 23, I will dump out my 40 to the Reporter and a world I’ve known the entire 11 years of my professional career — print journalism. A technical writing job at a Fortune 500 company was an opportunity I Kevin Endejan couldn’t pass up — especially with a growing family. My wife, Melanie, and I, have our first baby due in a few short weeks. While I look forward to what the future holds, I will never forget the past. As the last remaining original member of the Issaquah/ Sammamish Reporter, I possess a lot of pride in this paper. I was hired just days before the first edition was scheduled to come out, Sept. 14, 2007. Admittedly, I didn’t know much about Issaquah or Sammamish at the time. I was only aware as the new paper on the block, I had to soak in a lot of information quickly, and produce a near flawless

LETTERS HUMANS CAUSED GEESE PROBLEM Whenever I read an article like “Canadian geese euthanized at Lake Sammamish State Park” (Aug.7, 2013) I’m appalled by how indifferently someone can report on the extermination of entire families of intelligent, social animals. If people knew geese as

product. It didn’t take long for those uncomfortable feelings of not knowing the community for Issaquah and Sammamish to become my second home. Covering the highly successful local teams and meeting great kids, coaches, community members and coworkers made it a pleasure to come to the office every day. Skyline’s run of four football championships in five years (I missed covering the 2012 title), stepping into the New York Yankees’ locker room to interview Issaquah grad Colin Curtis and standing shoulder to shoulder with actor Will Smith on the sideline of a nationally televised highschool football game remain highlights of my time here. In reality, I’ve enjoyed every feature story I’ve done, no matter how small or large. Heck, I’ve even had fun covering city government the last year and a half — something I was unsure of at first. There are a lot of great people in the Issaquah-Sammamish area who make it easy to write interesting stories. To all of you, it is hard to say goodbye. Thank you for the last six years and please continue to support community newspapers. Don’t underestimate their value and the hard work that goes into them. Assistant editor Kevin Endejan can be reached at 425-391-0363, ext. 5054.

personally as I do, they would surely think the species every bit as worthy of respect as our own. I’ve watched them go through their courtship and nest-building routines, seen a gander loyally guarding his mate while she dutifully incubated her eggs, day and night, throughout windstorms and heavy snowfalls during the fickle Montana spring and witnessed with delight the hatching and rearing of their precious chicks. The goose situation is all the more

maddening since, as with so many other so-called wildlife “problems,” it was brought on by humans themselves. The old growth forests that once grew to the water’s edge were felled years ago; shrubs like salmonberry or huckleberry as well as riparian vegetation that used to house bullfrogs and provided cover for fish have been torn out and replaced with concrete bulkheads, backfill and manicured lawn grass.

Battle over public records not likely to end soon

hose looking for a more transparent government are increasingly relying on public records to make it happen. But there are those throughout the public sector convinced some of these Washingtonians are abusing the Public Records Act. An alliance of government forces — whose members often are the targets of the records — tried unsuccessfully earlier this year to rewrite the act to make it easier to repel requesters whose motives they question. Though the bill died in the legislative process, the matter reappeared Jerry Cornfield in the state budget in the form of a provision to spend $25,000 contemplating ways to help governments deal with records requests they consider harassing. Lawmakers tapped the Ruckelshaus Center, a joint venture of the University of Washington and Washington State University, to facilitate a conversation between those in the alliance and those who viewed the failed bill as an unprecedented attack on citizens’ right to petition their government. By Dec. 15, the center is supposed to put forth recommendations. The effort is just getting off the ground and folks at the center are tamping down expectations what will emerge. Michael Kern, the center director, said this week the time frame is too tight to pull the parties together for fruitful face-to-face sessions. The game plan is to speak with 20 to 30 people who’ve been visible and vocal in the

LETTERS CONTINUED FROM PAGE 4

The end result of this rampant manipulation is a strange new world, inhospitable for all but the most grass-loving of creatures.

THE PETRI DISH legislative conflict then prepare an assessment of the situation based on what center staff hears in the interviews. “We’ll report what the diverse interests say,” he said. “It will not include our opinions because we don’t have opinions. We are a neutral third party.” That’s not quite what Democratic Rep. Dean Takko of Longview envisioned when he helped persuade leaders of his party to put the proviso in the budget. Now, he’ll take whatever they provide this winter as a possible starting point for legislation in 2014. Another person interested in talking with Kern’s team is Jason Mercier, an analyst with the Washington Policy Center and member of the Washington Coalition for Open Government. The coalition strongly opposed Takko’s bill. The problem isn’t the law, he said, but officials understanding of it. He suggested lawmakers asked the wrong question with the budget proviso. Leaders in local governments say hefty requests can chew up staff time and taxpayer dollars, but there’s no data on how much time and money is wasted to back up their claims, he said. Getting the answer would really inform the discussion, he said. Sounds like something a public records request, or two, could clear up. Jerry Cornfield is a political reporter who covers Olympia for The Daily Herald in Everett, which is among the Washington state newspapers in the Sound Publishing group. He can be contacted at jcornfield@heraldnet.com. And it just so happens that geese, like humans, love mowed lawns. But rather than calling in the death-squad from “Wildlife Services” to fire up their gas chambers, why not try replacing some of the acres of grass with native vegetation? I guarantee the geese will move on to greener pastures.

We think the best way to care for our neighbors is to be in the neighborhood.

The Blotter

Police reports from Issaquah and Sammamish BY KEVIN ENDEJAN KENDEJAN@ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM

The following information was compiled from Sammamish & Issaquah police reports:

BAD CHOICE A 20-year-old Monroe man was pulled over in the early morning of Aug. 17 after he nearly sideswiped an off duty Sammamish police officer who was on his way home from work. The man sped out of the intersection at Northeast 37th Street and Sahalee Way, forcing the officer to take evasive action and swerve off the shoulder. The man was arrested and cited for a minor operating a vehicle after consuming alcohol. He blew a .60.

HIGH DRIVER An 18-year-old Sammamish man was arrested Aug. 17 after driving recklessly through Issaquah and Sammamish while being under the influence of heroin and marijuana. He was originally spotted going the wrong way on Gilman Boulevard before being pulled over on Issaquah Pine Lake Road and 228th Avenue Southeast shortly after midnight. The man, who admitted to being a heroin addict since age 13, attended Hempfest earlier in the day. He said he normally doesn’t smoke marijuana because it “messes with his mind and makes it hard for him to focus.”

CAUGHT IN ACT A Sammamish woman called police Aug. 12 after watching a group of three teenagers suspiciously run away from play equipment at Margaret Mead Elementary School. The woman saw drawings on the equipment with black markers and a purse left behind. Officers eventually caught up with the suspects who returned for the purse. One of the teens admitted to drawing a Superman logo, profane words and other drawings. The other two teens expressed a desire to clean up the vandalism, but officers advised them not to do anything without the permission of the school as they could cause further damage.

WALLET NABBED A student at Eastside Catholic called police Aug. 15 to report the theft of his wallet. The boy didn’t initially call police when his wallet was taken from his shoe at football practice as he believed friends might be playing a trick on him. The contents of his wallet were later mailed to him with a rubber band around them, but his debit card was still missing. Thieves made two fast-food purchases of $16 and $26 at a Renton KFC and Jack in the Box.

DONATION THEFT A Sammamish woman called police Aug. 14 after someone broke into her car overnight and stole a box

full of items set to be donated to GoodWill. Thieves broke the front window of the car parked in the 21100 block of Southeast 28th Street in order to steal the donations.

SMASH & GRAB Thieves broke out two windows in a car Aug. 14, stealing a pair of sunglasses and $10 in quarters. Damage to the vehicle, parked in the 3500 block of East Lake Sammamish Parkway, was estimated at $750.

BROKEN GLASS A Sammamish woman called police Aug. 14 after discovering the decorative glass in her garage door was broken sometime overnight. Officers located two golf-ball sized rocks inside the garage, noting it was likely they were used to break the window in the 1100 block of 235th Place Southeast.

DRUNK & SLEEPING A 55-year-old Sammamish man was arrested Aug. 7 after police discovered him sleeping in his vehicle outside the Sahalee neighborhood. The man was sitting in the front seat of his car and said he was sleeping in his vehicle because he just had a fight with his father-in-law. He then told officers, “I guarantee I’m over the legal limit,” several times. The man, who blew a .265, was arrested for physical control over a motor vehicle.

ROAD RAGE A 35-year-old Redmond woman called Sammamish police Aug. 6 after she said a person in the car behind her waved a gun out the passenger window. The 17th Annual

woman, who was traveling near Inglewood Hill Road and 228th Avenue Southeast, said she felt the vehicle was following her too close so she stepped on her brakes. The jeep got close to her again and she again “tapped” her brakes. This time the passenger of the vehicle waved what she thought was a gun. Officers were unable to locate the suspects.

HARASSMENT A Sammamish man called police July 30 reporting his 12-year-old son was receiving multiple harassing texts from an unknown suspect. Officers attempted to communicate with the suspect, who eventually responded with a message, “Im a responsible n productive adult not a pervert.” Officers were unable to identify the suspect, but the parents are willing to assist in prosecution if the suspect is found.

LEAKY ROOF A 91-year-old Sammamish woman called police July 30 to report a roof leak, afraid her house would flood. Officers noticed four areas where there was obvious water damage where the ceiling was hanging down 3 to 4 inches. The woman, who lives in the 2400 block of 223rd Place Northeast, said she called the police because she didn’t know what else to do.

Fri. Noon-7 • Sat. 10-7 • Sun. 10-5

10-year-old son “accidentally” shot a bird with an airsoft gun and his neighbor in the 300 block of Shangri-La Way Northeast became upset. The woman and her boyfriend allegedly made threats to the boy and his father.

BB GUNS? Police responded to a call Aug. 2 of people shooting BB guns off the balcony of an apartment in the 200 block of Newport Way. Officers were unable to locate the suspects. Police talked to the reporting party who said the person in the apartment has done this before.

BAD DOG A store manager called Issaquah police Aug. 2 after a customer refused to leave the store after he asked her to go. The woman’s service dog relieved itself on the floor of the store in the 6100 block of East Lake Sammamish Parkway. Officer spoke with the woman about the mess.

GARBAGE CAN RAM Issaquah police responded to a call Aug. 2 of woman hitting numerous garbage cans with her vehicle in the 2100 block of Northeast Katsura Street. Officers contacted the owner of the vehicle who said she knew she hit a garbage can, but didn’t think it fell over.

STOLEN GUNS

NO SHOES

A Sammamish man called police Aug. 4 to report the theft of several items including three rifles. Thieves opened the sliding glass door to the townhouse in the 22400 block of Inglewood Hill Road and made off with the weapons, a drill set and two gaming consoles.

Issaquah police contacted a woman in a Gilman Boulevard restaurant Aug. 2, who appeared to be a transient and was requesting a ride to North Bend so she could get her drivers license. Police offered to give her a ride to the bus stop. The woman said she didn’t need a ride, just a pair of shoes. Officers went to the clothing bank and delivered her a pair of shoes.

Police turn up heat on DUI patrols

Police will be out in force between Aug. 16 and Sept. 2, looking for drivers under the influence of alcohol, marijuana, or other drugs during the annual Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over campaign. The campaign is being joined by the Issaquah and Sammamish police departments and the Washington State Patrol, among other jurisdictions. DUI is the leading cause of death on Washington roadways, accountable for nearly half of the 439 fatalities during 2012. And, law enforcement officials add, even though Washington legalized marijuana for adults 21 and older, it is still illegal and dangerous to drive under the influence of marijuana. Studies have found that marijuana-positive drivers are twice as likely to crash as other drivers. Marijuana use can slow reaction time, decrease the ability of a driver to maintain lane position, and diminish the ability to pay attention to the tasks of driving. It also interferes with a driver’s ability to perform divided-attention tasks, such as steering and maintaining vehicle speed at the same time. Last year in King County, during the same time period, officers on routine and extra patrols arrested 374 people for DUI. For all of 2012, in King County, 8,578 people were charged with DUI.

a few blocks subject to a maximum elevation of 515-feet above sea level. The question of visibility from I-90 was raised by commission member Chantal Stevens, along with bright lighting which was raised by former city council member David Kappler during public comment. Height exceptions could still come up before the commission if it’s questionable, particularly with regard to non-building uses such as water tanks, chimneys, greenhouses, public art, solar collectors and wind turbines. Niven said Swedish might be interested in building a facility for family lodging, similar to a Ronald McDonald House, or assisted living/ memory care. The only free-standing retail building might be a pharmacy, and most likely a driveup window would not be allowed. However there is a pharmacy in the hospital, so the need might not be there. Traffic and circulation were big topics, as was parking. A skybridge

connecting the hospital to a professional building is a distinct possibility. Commissioner Nina Milligan requested a bike plan be included in the development agreement, which Kappler echoed in his comments. He was concerned about people on high speed bikes clashing with people rehabilitating on crutches or those in wheelchairs. “More rehabilitation means more people will want to be out,” Kappler said. “How to mix it is important.” Nothing firm was decided on parking, but both Stevens and Milligan would like to see a parking structure rather than a sea of surface parking. ADA parking is set by building code, and there are plenty of those already. Phase I of the project includes 17.85 acres and Phase II will consist of 10.41 acres. The UDVC will revisit the Swedish development agreement again Sept. 3. After that it moves back to the Land and Shore committee Sept. 10. The city council could adopt the agreement Oct. 7.

Plateau Spirits & Wine, located in the Sammamish Highlands Shopping Center, will close next month. “We will be closing our store on Sept. 15, due to lease conflicts, but we still love to keep business in Plateau area,” said the store owners, in a statement. With the passing of Initiative 1183 — the privatization of liquor sales — Washington auctioned off all its state-run liquor stores. Jin Kim purchased the store rights for slightly

over $200,000. Kim and her husband opened the newly named Plateau Spirits & Wine in June 2012, focusing on more specialized liquors. “If by chance any of our loyal and dear customers are aware of a space please contact me via email (plateauspirits@gmail. com),” Kim said. “We really appreciate your support and we love you.” Sammamish’s Ace Hardware recently closed its doors, citing high rent in the Sammamish Highlands

Halloween store to move into old Albertsons’s temporarily The old Albertson’s grocery store on the northeast corner of Southeast 56th and East Lake Sammamish Parkway in Issaquah, soon will be home to the Spirit Halloween store. It will open sometime in September and close a few days after Halloween, said Jim Alexander, vice-president and partner in Merlone Geier Partners, a private real estate investment firm which is hoping to find a permanent tenant soon. At one point, it was thought that Value Village would move into the site. The building has been vacant for five years.

The 49,516 square-foot building is too large for Spirit Halloween, but Alexander said they rented it for the Halloween season last year and used curtains to reduce it to 10,000 to 15,000 square feet. It is located at 5530 E. Lake Sammamish Parkway.

EASTSIDE PEDIATRIC DENTAL GROUP

425.392.4048 • 185 NE Gilman Blvd • Issaquah www.eastsidepediatricdentalgroup.com

Dr. Lombardi was born and raised in the Yakima Valley. She is a 1992 graduate of the University of Washington, School of Dentistry and completed a general practice residency through the University of Washington Medical Center in 1993. While on rotation through the Odessa Brown Children’s Clinic and Children’s Hospital Department of Dental Medicine during her general practice residency training, Dr. Lombardi discovered her love of working with children, she decided to pursue pediatric dentistry as her specialty. She completed her pediatric dental residency program at a joint program offered by the University of Washington and Seattle Children’s Hospital where she obtained both her certificate in Pediatric Dentistry as well as a Master of Science in Dentistry (MSD). Dr. Lombardi joined Eastside Pediatric Dental Group in 1996, and she completed her board certification and became a Diplomate of the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry in 2002. She faithfully attends continuing education conferences throughout the year, believing that practicing dentistry is a lifelong learning process and hopes to apply what she learns to provide the highest standard of care to the children she cares for.

Dr. Donna, as she is known by many of her patients, was born and raised in New Jersey. Her first visit to a pediatric dentist at the age of 3 was instrumental in her decision to become a dentist, “this is what I want to do when I grow up.” Dr. Donna received her Bachelor of Science (BS) in Biology from Fairleigh Dickinson University and her Doctorate of Dental Medicine (DMD) from the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey – New Jersey Dental School. Following dental school, Dr. Donna was Seattle-bound for the residency program in hospital dentistry at the University of Washington Medical Center. She received her Certificate in Pediatric Dentistry and Master of Science in Dentistry (MSD) in 1998 from the University of Washington. In October 2006, Dr. Donna successfully completed her board certification to become a Diplomate of the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry. Dr. Donna teaches pediatric dentistry to dental residents in the Swedish Medical Center General Practice Residency Program and does a hands-on presentation about dentistry for Expanding Your Horizons (EYH), a program which encourages girls to consider careers in science, technology, engineering and math. When not in the office, Dr. Donna can be found hiking, kayaking, white water rafting, walking her dog, working in the yard or at the yoga studio.

Not one to lie idle, Dr. Lombardi has many interests outside of dentistry as well. When she can find the time, she loves to work in her yard and on her house. She has recently taken up the hobbies of knitting and skiing. She is married, the mother of two growing boys and lives on the Eastside.

Comprehensive Women’s Healthcare Are you experiencing:

• Fatigue • Moodiness • Hot flashes • Sleep problems

• Weight gain • Headaches • Night sweats • Low sex drive

• Rapid aging • Hair thinning/loss • Chronic urinary tract infections

NaturoMedica offers integrated healthcare, utilizing the best conventional and natural therapies. NaturoMedica physicians are experienced in testing and treating hormonal imbalances, including the use of bio-identical hormones.

Accepting New Patients

Q & A with the Doctors Naturopathic physicians Naomi Bryant, Tammy McInnis and Jill Monster founded the NaturoMedica clinic in Sammamish almost six years ago. Dr. Rachelle Forsberg, who is a naturopathic physician and an acupuncturist joined the clinic in 2012.

Q. What kind of healthcare do you offer for women? Dr. BryantWe actually provide healthcare for men, women and children, but the majority of our patients are women. For women, we offer a full range of primary care, including annual gynecological exams.

Dr. MonsterWe practice integrated medicine. We combine the best conventional and natural therapies to design a plan that is right for each patient. We like to say that the best medicine is the medicine that works for each individual. This can mean anything from diet and lifestyle changes, to vitamins and supplements, to pharmaceutical medications.

Q. What kinds of specialized care do

you offer for women?

Dr. BryantWe treat all types of medical conditions, but we find that women have many health complaints related to hormonal imbalances. From puberty through menopause and beyond, women experience hormonal shifts which are at the root of many health concerns. In addition to the “female” hormones estrogen and progesterone, women may experience symptoms associated with imbalances of the other hormones including thyroid, cortisol and testosterone. It is no wonder women have a large number of health concerns that are hormone related! We are well versed in choosing the hormone testing and treatment that is right for each patient’s circumstance. Therapies for hormonal imbalances can include diet and lifestyle interventions, and supplements or prescriptions. For women who are interested in hormone replacement therapy, we have experience in prescribing bio-identical hormones. Dr McInnisWe also see many women for digestive issues, such as Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). Food allergies seem to be another

I Fri: 8am-6pm I Sat: 8am-5pm

area of interest for many patients. It is probably worth mentioning that many women feel great most of the time and just want to make sure that they are doing all of the right things to stay healthy. A large part of our practice is dedicated to preventive healthcare. It is a really exciting time in medicine. For example, there is state-of-the art testing that looks at a patient’s individual vitamin and nutrient levels, so that a patient can make decisions about which vitamins and supplements to take based upon personal blood chemistry.

Q. What makes healthcare at

NaturoMedica different from other healthcare?

Dr. McInnisIn addition to offering a blend of conventional and alternative medicine, our medicine is highly personalized. A first office visits lasts for up to two hours and follow up visits generally last for an hour. This gives us time to get to know our patients and their health history and to discuss each of their health concerns. Dr ForsbergWe find that many patients are dissatisfied with their current medical care. They are spending less and less time with their doctors–often having to schedule multiple

Dr. Forsberg, Dr. McInnis, Dr. Monster and Dr. Bryant.

visits to discuss each of their health concerns. They are looking for a more holistic, individualized approach and we provide that.

Q. Are doctors at NaturoMedica willing to work alongside my existing doctor? Dr. MonsterAbsolutely. We can work alongside your established physician or provide primary care. We believe in finding the best medical care for each person, which may mean working with multiple practitioners. We maintain an extensive referral network and we often work with medical doctors and other healthcare providers. Our goal is simply to do what is best for each patient. 860210

Local team shines under bright lights Eastlake Little League’s run at the Little League World Series continued into the semi-final round with a 6-5 win over Nasvhille, Tenn. on Tuesday, its second straight win in as many days with its back against the wall. Eastlake scored all of its six runs in the third inning, and held on down the stretch to beat the Southeast representatives from Nashville and become one of only three teams remaining in the United States pool. Eastlake fell behind early, trailing 2-0 after Tennessee scored a pair of runs in the first inning. But the lead was short-lived, as the Northwest champions rallied for six runs with the first seven batters reaching base in its half of the third. Nate Fitzgibbons got things going with a walk, before Dylan Matsuoka was hit by a pitch and Bryce Delay singled to load the bases. Jack Carper, Dalton Chandler and Will Armbruester followed with RBI base hits before Jack Matheson and Austin Oh knocked in runs of their own to provide all the offense Eastlake would need on the night. Tennessee added two more runs in the fourth and brought the score within one on a solo home run in the fifth, but was not able to move the tying run into scoring position against Matheson, who

New England and California will play Eastlake Thursday at 5 p.m. PDT in another loser-out game, with the winner earning the other spot in the pool championship game. Only six teams remain in the entire tournament, with Mexico, Latin America and Japan playing for the international bracket title. After winning its opener 8-4 over the Southwest squad from Texas, Eastlake fell 9-7 to the New England representatives from Westport, Conn. in the second round before rebounding to win back-to-back elimination games against the Midwest and Southeast champs. Eastlake played its third loserout game in four days Thursday, after the Reporter’s print deadline, with a spot in the US Pool final on the line.

worked the final three innings and onethird on the mound. Starter Jacob Dahlstrom struck out four and allowed four runs, three earned, on five hits before giving way to Matheson with two outs in the third. Matheson struck out three and did not walk a batter, allowing only the home run as Eastlake kept its season alive and ensured it will play for a spot in the US final.

Before Kevin Penner was named University of Nevada Las Vegas Sportsman of the Year, or won the Mountain West Conference collegiate golf championship, he was a 2009 graduate of Eastlake High School, and spent his childhood on the courses around the Eastside and near his family’s Sammamish home. Penner was a standout during his time with the Rebels, winning a number of tournaments both collegiately and at invitationals, including the 2012 Sahalee Players Championship back in the Pacific Northwest. He was the runner-up at the NCAA National Championships as a senior in 2013, after winning the conference title, and earned All-America honors in addition to his own school’s highest athletic distinction. After finishing his time at UNLV, Penner recently turned pro, and will head to Q-School in only a few weeks to take his turn at cracking the Web.com Tour and eventually earning enough money to make the PGA Tour. He won his first professional event recently on the Adams Golf Pro Tour Series, taking the Firekeeper Classic in Mayetta, Kan. by four strokes and pocketing a handsome $13,175 for his troubles. Penner took some time to chat with the Reporter between stops along the Kansas highway as he headed to his next event to talk about life as a pro, his time growing up around the game in Sammamish and his turning point as a player during his days at Eastlake High School.

birdies. That’s not something I’m used to, having a big lead. To be able to hold the lead the whole time felt great. It’s a great way to start out, right out of college getting that win right off the bat.

Q A

How did you get your start on the golf course?

I played growing up with my parents and also played baseball. My dad told me I had to kind of pick one and stick with it because it was affecting both. I don’t know what it was, I just enjoyed golf. It wasn’t work or practice, it was just having fun with it. We got a membership at The Plateau Club and moved there so I could practice every day. I had a lot of fun playing golf and I still have fun playing golf. It’s nice to be able to do something you enjoy for a living and not see it as work.

Were you a naturally accomplished player, or was there a time when you really started dedicating yourself to the craft of golf?

One thing that sticks with me is we had a really good team my freshman year at Eastlake. My freshman year it was a battle and I didn’t even make the district tournament. I worked my butt off that whole winter and when state came around in the spring, I went and played a junior national tournament myself and took third. All that hard work was where I realized if you apply yourself, you can earn things even though they aren’t given to you. I won state my sophomore year and that winter after my freshman year was what really kept me going.

Q A

What has been the biggest change from college to playing as a professional?

Kevin Penner: It’s different from college, traveling with a team and having your buddies with you. I’ve been on the road by myself, taking 15-hour car rides. I enjoy it, it’s been a lot of fun so far. I have a lot of fun traveling. This is what I’ve been wanting to do. How exciting was it to pick up your first win as a professional?

I had my caddie David Flynn on the bag and he’s going to caddy to me when he gets done with school. We work great together and he just kept me calm and comfortable. I was super relaxed the whole week and I just kept making

What is the next step after the Adams Tour?

I start Q-School in the fall. There are four stages to complete. The top-18 in the first three stages to advance to the finals, where the top 45 get to play on the Web.com tour. From there, you try to earn enough money to earn your way on to PGA Tour. Otherwise, I will play smaller events and get ready for next year. What is your message to young people thinking about getting into golf?

I would just say to have fun with it and continue to work hard. When things aren’t given, you have to work that much harder and it is better to earn something than have it given to you.

New Issaquah superintendent talks about the past, future BY KRIS HILL KHILL@SOUNDPUBLISHING.COM

Ron Thiele has deep connections to east and southeast King County. The new superintendent of the Issaquah School District was born in Enumclaw and grew up on Lake Sawyer and graduated from Kent-Meridian High School in 1981. Until recently, Thiele and his wife, Jill, made their home in Maple Valley. “My roots in the community go way back,” Thiele said. After high school, Thiele attended Evergreen State College in Olympia and Seattle Central Community College before transferring to the University of Washington, earning a degree in international studies. Teaching wasn’t yet on his radar. After exploring the possibility of a postgraduate teaching certificate program at the UW, but finding classes already were filled, he chanced upon Seattle Pacific University. “I stopped in and said, ‘Hey, do you guys have a teaching program,’” Thiele said. “They said, ‘Yes, in fact, we have classes starting next week.’” He got his first teaching job in the Los Angeles Unified School District. When his job was eliminated during a recession, Thiele, now married, looked north. “We always knew we would come back to the Northwest,” Thiele said. After sending out applications, he was hired at Tahoma Junior High and the family rented an apartment in Issaquah, not far from the district office where he now works. Several years and school posts later, Thiele became the first principal at Cedar River Middle School, a job he served in for a year before moving to the Issaquah School District to take over as principal at Issaquah Middle School. “I’ve always been interested in leadership,” Thiele said. “Being a school administrator gave me the opportunity to have a broader influence over the educational program and one of the things I talk about is the overall experience people have in our school systems, not just the students, but the parents and the staff.” What appealed to him about the move into the Issaquah School District was that it was an opportunity to work at a larger school in a larger district as well as the fact it was a middle school with three grades. “It allowed students to develop an affiliation with their school and for me to get to know the students and their families better because I would have them for three years,” Thiele said. “One of the hardest things I ever had to do was leave Cedar River Middle School. I had been with those people for 10 years as a colleague, as an assistant principal and as a principal.” There are times, though, when you can’t pick the timing of an opportunity, Thiele said, and this time he decided to pursue it. It seems to have worked out, he said, now that he has risen to the highest level of leadership in the district as superintendent. Working in Tahoma and living in Maple Valley gave him an even deeper appreciation for the community of Issaquah where he has worked since 2001 and now lives. “I absolutely love this community and have a deep affection for the staff, the kids, the families, and my wife Jill and I are just

Ron Thiele thrilled to have a home built here.” Thiele was the associate superintendent for five years “so it’s been a progression for me,” he said “I have a tremendous affection for the students, the community, the staff here. I’ve been at the table working closely with our school board. I feel very fortunate to have an outstanding school board.” Thiele was appointed as superintendent by the Issaquah School Board in February. He pointed to the support of voters in the district, who passed the last bond at the height of the recession by more than 70 percent, the district’s foundation which raised more than $1 million last year, and the high level of participation in Parent Teacher Associations where some schools have community members who don’t even have children attending the school where they are in the PTA or PTSA. He noted that some of the most educated people in the country live in the Issaquah School District due to the employers in the area. Because those people tend to value education, the district receives an unusual level of support, Thiele said. “That’s appealing when you’re in my business,” Thiele said. “I don’t have to go out and spend a lot of energy getting my community involved in schools.” Instead, he plans to spend his energy focused on three areas of emphasis, something he explained at the district’s recent leadership retreat. “The first one is school safety and security,” he said. “I have a very comprehensive definition of what I mean by that, it’s not just emergency evacuation drills or construction of safe facilities. I want kids to feel good. It goes back to the idea of having the best experience possible. I feel kids will perform best academically if they feel safe.” His second emphasis ties into that. He wants to encourage creating and cultivating a culture of kindness. “Sometimes it’s hard in our business, emotions run high,” Thiele said. “These are people’s babies that we’re working with. When people feel like they’re in a friendly welcoming environment, they’re less likely to behave in less friendly ways.” He wants students to feel welcome from the moment the bus doors swing open in the morning to the time they are interacting with a teacher in a classroom before the last bell rings. “I really encourage kindness,” he said. “I just believe in it.”
