High winds and rain left thousands of Puget Sound Energy customers in Sammamish and hundreds in Issaquah without power for the better part of Tuesday, with a few hundred continuing to be affected through Wednesday. On Tuesday morning, 3,259 customers' power went out in the area northwest of the intersection of Southeast 48th Street and Issaquah-Pine Lake Road Southeast. Meanwhile, in the Issaquah Highlands near Grandview Park, 273 customers experienced outages. The outages temporarily disabled the traffic light at the busy intersection of Interstate 90 and Front Street in Issaquah, according to city communications staff. PSE initially estimated the outages would be corrected by

noon, but the number of Sammamish power customers going dark increased to 4,400 by Tuesday afternoon, with the count in Issaquah increasing to more than 400. By evening, the number in Sammamish had decreased to 3,000 while Issaquah outages increased to 550. As of 7 a.m. Wednesday, scattered remaining outages were affecting only 40 Sammamish customers and 340 Issaquah customers. The outages occurred during a National Weather Service high wind watch for the region. Forecasts had predicted a south southwest wind blowing at 29- to 32 mph with 48 mph gusts. On Tuesday afternoon, the @NWSSeattle Twitter account reported the Service had recorded a 57 mph gust at a 1,900-foot elevation point on Tiger Mountain.

READY TO MEET THE WORLD Eastside firefighter Mark Harper, firefighter Jason Stotler and Lt. Ryan Anderson pose with mother Jessica Kober, father Ryan Kober and newborn Melody in the Kobers’ Swedish hospital room after they delivered Melody in Eastside Fire Station 83 Nov. 11.

BY DANIEL NASH ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

Fire Chief Lee Soptich announced Monday that Eastside Fire and Rescue had selected Deputy Chief Greg Tryon as interim fire chief following Soptich's retirement. Soptich called the selection "right for all the right reasons." "He has the institutional knowledge, professional skills and well-tuned abilities to take on this next personal challenge and will not be one to just fill the seat,” Soptich said. Tryon, an Issaquah resident and Issaquah High School alumnus, is a 23-year veteran of the fire department who began as a volunteer at Sammamish's Station 81 in 1992. He joined the department professionally in 1994 and worked his way up the ranks, becoming deputy chief in 2011. Tryon's interim position becomes effective Dec. 1, following Soptich's Nov. 30 retirement, and will last through the selection of a permanent fire chief. Eastside Fire and Rescue leaders anticipate Feb. 1 as the date for selecting a permanent chief. "To have the opportunity to serve such an incredible organization, in any capacity, let alone as the fire chief, is truly an SEE CHIEF, 11

EF&R firefighters deliver Sammamish baby in Station 83 BY MEGAN CAMPBELL ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

A Sammamish newborn was in a hurry to come into the world Nov. 11, only a few minutes after her father, eyes big

and anxious, pounded for help on an Eastside Fire & Rescue station door yelling, “My wife is pregnant,” Lt. Ryan Anderson recalled the next day. Anderson was one of the three-member crew inside when

the Kober family arrived around 11:30 a.m. They went right to work when they saw pregnant Jessica Kober outside by her car, Anderson said. There was barely time enough to bring a gurney to her and roll her inside Station 83, located off of Issaquah-Pine Lake Road Southeast, before baby Melody arrived. SEE BABY, 11

Sammamish residents chime in on Sahalee Way project

Jeff Dernbach, left, and Alex Pfaffe, right, discuss the major issues along Sahalee Way at the Redmond/Sammamish Teen Center during the Nov. 4 open house. While both Sammamish residents agree a bridge over Lake Sammamish would ease traffic on the Plateau, they more realistically offered up the suggestion of removing the 42nd Street barricade.

least not any time soon. Dernbach lives near Sahalee Way and takes the major arterial everyday to connect to State Route 202. He, like many of the residents packed into the Redmond/Sammamish Teen Center for the Sahalee Way open house Nov. 4, thinks this intersection outside of city limits is the root problem. To ease traffic and stick with the city’s six-year Transportation Improvement Program, the city of Sammamish is considering a $14.2 million project to widen the road between Northeast 25th Way and Northeast 37th Street in order to meet estimated traffic volumes for the year 2035. Thousands of drivers currently use the road to commute on and off the northern portion of the Plateau during peak travel times. City staff collected citizen input at the Nov. 4 gathering, the second Sahalee Way open house meeting, and will take those comments back to the Sam-

mamish City Council early next year. An exact date has yet to be scheduled. While some residents had specific solutions — like Dernbach’s bridge over Lake Sammamish — and others were there strictly to listen, it was clear most at the open house thought the city’s current plan will not fix the problem. “I don’t really think it’s really going to solve any problems,” longtime Sammamish resident Bernie Haringer said. “It just costs a lot of money.” Haringer calls the Route 202 intersection a “big choke point.” Some residents suggested scrapping the whole project, in favor of addressing some smaller public safety issues at various intersections. Some Sahalee residents, like Lola Nelson-Mills, Sammamish executive assistant to the city manager, said adding an additional lane for slow trucks and buses coming into Sammamish from Route 202 SEE SAHALEE, 11

Hillside earth movement Officials look for runaway worries Talus residents BY MEGAN CAMPBELL

ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

Construction on a parcel adjacent to Northwest Talus Drive near Shangri-La Way stopped Friday, Nov. 13, following hillside earth movement. The city has reported the hillside is safe but the incident has left area residents shaken. Alpine Crest resident Jillian Hostenske told the Issaquah City Council Monday night that she was on her way home after the ground movement occurred and she described the scene as “a nightmare” of worry. She said she worried her home had become “toothpicks” — dropping a handful of the hygienic implements on the podium for effect — as she came to a site with work trucks and an officer directing traffic who could not direct her past a closed road home. She added that she doubted statements that the area was safe. “I don’t know how anyone could have determined that,” she said. But according to Mayor Fred Butler and staff reports, geotechnical engineers from the city and developer Triad Associates have continued to monitor the site since Saturday and have not seen any new movement. Monitoring devices for slope and groundwater were installed over the weekend, as well as4/7/15 Monday andAM Tuesday. 280945_4.75_x_6 11:05 Page 1 Butler said that city staff have been working

to keep members of the community notified of progress on the site of the movement, including the Talus Homeowners Association. “All construction actually has stopped,” Butler said. Triad ceased construction on the parcel, designated as Parcel 9, after movement strong enough to buckle Talus Drive occurred Friday night. Crews installed a temporary buttress from rock and concrete. Ninety homes were slated for construction on the site in 2016. Work to monitor the safety of the parcel is expected to continue for several weeks, according to city reports.

The King County Sheriff ’s Office is looking for a 15-year-old Sammamish girl who ran away from home Oct. 14. Alana Deporter is described as a white female standing 5 feet 9 inches tall and weighing 115 pounds, according to her profile on the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children website.

Syrian refugees welcome, Inslee says

W

ashington is keeping the welcome mat out for Syrian refugees, Gov. Jay Inslee said Monday. “At a time when millions of Syrian families are attempting to flee ISIS and seek refuge in safer parts of the world, including the United States, there are some who say it’s time to close our doors to people whose lives are in peril,” Inslee said in a prepared statement. “Washington will continue to be a state that welcomes those seeking refuge from persecution, regardless of where they come from or the religion they practice.” And Inslee criticized governors who’ve announced their opposition to accepting refugees. He didn’t name names but the leaders of Michigan and Alabama are among those announcing they want to JERRY keep refugees from settling in their states. CORNFIELD “It’s important to note that governors do not decide whether refugees come to their states. Those decisions are made by the federal government, and the U.S. State Department has a robust system in place to evaluate and place families who seek refugee status,” Inslee said. “That makes these anti-refugee comments by governors even more troublesome and of little value except to divide people and foment intolerance.” Meanwhile, last week’s deadly attacks are not deterring Inslee’s plans to attend a United Nations summit on climate change in Paris next month. Inslee intends to fly out Dec. 4 and attend four days of events before returning, according to spokeswoman Jaime Smith. The governor’s travel expenses including airfare and hotel will be picked up by the Georgetown Climate Center, a nonpartisan group that works on policies that reduce greenhouse gas emissions and help communities adapt to climate change. The international conference, which is scheduled to run Nov. 30 to Dec. 11, is attracting President Barack Obama and other world leaders who will consider adopting a plan for dealing with global warming. The first-term Democratic governor will be part of the official U.S. State Department delegation. ISSAQUAH | SAMMAMISH

or less than the cost of a Subway sandwich, you can get in on the next great tech marvel called Virtual Reality. Why should I, you ask. I’m not a gamer or a techie. I’ve got better things to do. Okay. But you’ll be missing out on a technology that’s swiftly moving from SKIP FERDERBER Geeksville to Main Street—if the New York Times, the Associated Press and CNN qualify as “Main Street” to you.

It plans to produce several films in VR; its first, “The Displaced,” about children uprooted by today’s war zones, is already available. To watch it, you’ll need to download a free New York Times VR iPhone or Android Times app on your smartphone, download the film from the Times website, and get a set of virtually free Google VR goggles to watch it. You put your smartphone inside the goggles, and, voila!, you’re THERE. The goggles are free to Times Sunday paper subscribers — or you can buy them on line for virtually nothing.

part of Google’s Cardboard initiative that has created usable VR googles made from cardboard to get people into VR technology. The Times isn’t alone. The Associated Press just announced it’s releasing its first VR news story, “Seeking Home: Life Inside the Calais Migrant Camp,” a story about a French migrant camp. And CNN simulcast the first Democratic Presidential debate on video and VR. VR technology is looked at by some as the most important tech development since the introduction of the Internet but, like any new tech, it may be messy for a while. As with smartphone tech, there are already competing VR formats. Aside from Google Cardboard, the other mainstream format is Oculus Rift. Be sure and check if the VR video you want to watch is compatible with whatever VR goggles you have. At some point you may ask if this is yet another tech debacle: for example, the 3-D TV set explosion that never happened. No one knows yet. But Facebook paid $2 billion for the VR company Oculus, anticipating that it had bought the next tech beyond video. Microsoft is developing HoloLens technology that lets you see the real world and 3-D computer-generated objects simultaneously. Of course there’s Google Cardboard and its free/nearly free VR goggles. Then there’s the NBA, NASA, Volvo and others who are using VR to demonstrate their products. A fad? Quite possibly. But don’t be surprised if VR turns out to quite more than that.

Business networking made easy with wearable tech BY DANIEL NASH ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

The industry convention: Perhaps the most venerated tradition in business networking. Whatever their trade — auto parts, software engineering, comic books — white collar professionals set out every year (and sometimes many times a year) to congregate in airconditioned plane hangars, walk among mazes of card tables and shake thousands of sweaty strangers’ hands, all in the interest of finding new avenues for business. But while that process brings everyone to the same place, it can feel like

searching for a needle in a haystack. It’s a problem Constantine Korovkin, as co-founder and executive of business and tech consultancy Akvelon Inc., understood well. “People stop by your booth and chat for a bit, then leave with a pen or a mouse pad,” Korovkin said. “They’re there to pick up swag and not necessarily to do business. “I thought, ‘There has to be a better way to do this.’” Korovkin saw a possible solution in wearable technology — specifically, a device marketed to event management companies that would allow convention-goers to hone in on

For one thing, if you own bonds, be aware that their price could fall – bond prices typically move in the opposite direction of interest rates. Longerterm bonds may see more drastic price drops, so make sure these bonds don’t make up too large a percentage of your fixed-income portfolio. You could also build a bond ladder, consisting JOE BILSBOROUGH FINANCIAL ADVISOR of short- and long-term bonds and other fixedrate vehicles, such as certificates of deposit. When interest rates rise, as may be the case soon, you can reinvest your maturing shortterm bonds and CDs at the higher rates. And when market rates are low, you’ll still have your longer-term bonds, which usually pay higher rates, working for you. Make sure the bonds or CDs in your ladder are consistent with your investment objectives. Concentrate on those things you can control, such as building a diversified portfolio that reflects your goals, risk tolerance and time horizon. This type of focus can help you – no matter where interest rates are headed.

This month, a study of 15,105 Brazilians aged 3574 showed that eating and drinking full-fat dairy products such as whole milk, butter and yogurt, are less likely to develop Metabolic Syndrome (a condition that leads to heart disease, stroke and diabetes). Other evidence suggests that you should avoid or limit milk products due to its high sugar content. Instead, they suggested that higher consumption of low-fat dairy products such as yogurt and lowDR. BRIAN TIU fat milk was more beneficial and may protect you from Metabolic Syndrome. Benefits may be due to fermentation, reducing a form of sugar called galactose that causes inflammation - which is why yogurt and cheese may help prevent heart attacks. Bottom Line: These studies are not set out to prove that milk does more harm than good. Nor is it saying that cheese and yogurt can prevent a heart attack. The findings are there as a reminder to limit your milk intake but it is okay to have cheese and yogurt once-in-a-while.

White tea comes from the young leaves of the same plant as green tea: Camellia sinensis. When the leaves are plucked they are laid out in the sun to dry—which makes it the least processed of all the true teas.

Cities see flooding during storm BY MEGAN CAMPBELL AND DANIEL NASH ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

Although the National Weather Service predicts mostly sunny weather Friday and Saturday, last weekend’s rain caused flooding in Issaquah and a washout in Sammamish. Both cities were on flood watch starting Monday afternoon in anticipation of the Tuesday storm that rolled in. The Issaquah Flood Warning System placed Issaquah Creek at Phase 1 Saturday, Nov. 14, the first and lowest flood threshold in the system. Near Hobart, creek levels had risen to nearly seven feet, according to the river gauge. The city of Issaquah offered its citizens free sandbags. Issaquah spokespeople said there was no

immediate threat, but that residents should establish a household flood strategy and keep an eye on weather forecasts. Also during the weekend, Eastside Fire & Rescue crews responded to two incidents where downed trees blocked Sammamish roadways, according to Eastside Fire spokesperson Jay Hart. Crews reduced traffic to one lane on Louis Thompson Hill Road Northeast after water washed out the shoulder causing a pair of trees to fall over Sunday morning. Nearby, Eastside Fire crews responded to another tree blocking 209th Avenue Northeast Sunday night, according to Hart. Both cities were on flood watch through Wednesday afternoon, according to the National Weather Service. News Desk: 425-391-0363; news@issaquahreporter.com

Strong winds knocked over trees and power lines impacting traffic along Duthie Hill Road in Sammamish twice Tuesday, according to the city of Sammamish. The road closed after the second incident Tuesday afternoon and remained closed to traffic until early Wednesday morning. Puget Sound Energy crews were on scene near 270th Avenue Southeast Tuesday afternoon removing the tree. Crews diverted traffic on Duthie Hill Road to Southeast Issaquah-Beaver Lake Road, East Beaver Lake Way Southeast and onto Southeast Belvedere Way. The Belvedere Way gate was open for drivers to move in and out of the Trossachs neighborhood. Earlier in the day, around 10 a.m., crews reduced Duthie Hill Road traffic to one lane just west of the Trossachs neighborhood due to a fallen tree. Crews removed the obstacle and two-way traffic resumed before 11 a.m., according to the city. One city alert sent out Tuesday warned residents the winds were likely to continue knocking down trees, which it did. There were numerous other issues the Tuesday storm caused, including downed

trees on the 4000 block of East Lake Sammamish Parkway Southeast at 8 a.m., on Issaquah-Beaver Lake Road at 256th Avenue Southeast at 9 a.m., and 245th Avenue Southeast, just north of Southeast 24th Street, at 11:45 a.m., according to the city. A lot of debris and branches were on Issaquah-Fall City Road between Issaquah-Pine Lake Road and IssaquahBeaver Lake Road around 11 a.m. Orange cones were reported floating down Eastlake Sammamish Parkway in front of Sammamish Landing at 10 a.m. A tree knocked over a power line closing Southeast 30th Street near the 247th Avenue Southeast intersection shortly after 11 a.m. In the 22100 block of Northeast Ninth Place a street light fell over and shattered around 11:30 a.m.

Eastlake senior sings at the Grand Ole Opry BY MEGAN CAMPBELL ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

Eastlake High School senior Georgia Newman-Taylor was worried someone made a mistake. She expected someone to say, "Sorry, you're the wrong person to be here." But Newman-Taylor was right where she belonged, as one of about 350 vocalists from around the nation to perform at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, Tennessee, last month. The 18-year-old was one of six Washington high schoolers

to earn a spot on stage for the National Association for Music Education’s 2015 All-National Honor Ensembles in mixed choir. “It was one of the best experiences of my life,” the Redmond resident said. “It was completely unbelievable from the moment I got there to the moment I walked on stage.” Over the four-day conference, Newman-Taylor had the privilege of meeting and learning from passionate vocalists and instructors, like Dr. Ann Howard Jones, a music professor and director at Boston

Eagles soar against Vikings in Class 4A quarterfinals BY SHAUN SCOTT ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

A second-half surge propelled the Issaquah Eagles to a victory against the Curtis Vikings in the Class 4A quarterfinals. Trailing 2-1 with 21 minutes left in regulation, the Eagles scored two goals down the stretch, earning a comeback 3-2 victory on Nov. 14 at Curtis High School in University Place. Issaquah’s Mariah Van Halm tied the game at 2-2 with a line drive shot in the upper right corner in the 60th minute of play. Eagles forward Claudia Longo scored the go-ahead goal on a corner

kick in the 66th minute. Longo’s shot curved perfectly into the far post just out of reach of the Curtis goalie. “I was just trying to put a good ball in, because I knew my team would be there. It happened to go in,” Longo said. “It was a great team effort today. Everyone did their job. It was awesome.” Eagles’ head coach Tom Bunnell said Longo always has been a clutch player. “She is pretty special with stuff like that,” Bunnell said. “She waited for the right time.” Longo wasn’t the only individual who unveiled a heroic performance. In stoppage time, Curtis had a chance to tie the game at 3-3

and force overtime. Issaquah goalie Anna Miller got caught away from the goal and Curtis unleashed a shot that appeared to be en route to the game tying equalizer. Before the ball could cross the line, Issaquah’s Kirstie Johnson hustled and cleared the ball just inches before it became a goal, preserving Issaquah’s 3-2 win. “That was gigantic,” Bunnell said of Johnson’s play. “It was just the nature of the game. We knew they were going to give us some crazy pressure. They got good players all over the place.

Issaquah players celebrate after game-winning goal on a corner kick in the 66th minute. We have been talking about no matter if we are up or if we are down to just play 80 minutes and hopefully the result is the right one.”

SAHALEE CONTINUED FROM PAGE 2

Megan Campbell, Issaquah/Sammamish Reporter

At least 70 people packed into the Redmond/Sammamish Teen Center for the Nov. 4 Sahalee Way open house in Sammamish.

BABY CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

“It’s a huge adrenaline rush. … We’re running back and forth — stuff ’s flying all over,” Anderson said. “We don’t deliver a lot of babies,” especially in the middle of the station, between a fire engine and an ambulance. Eastside firefighters train for situations like this and were prepared to help the Kober family,

but “it’s a lot different when it’s a real live person, instead of a mannequin,” Anderson said. And, usually, the emergency doesn’t come to their front door. Under normal circumstances, they have some time to prepare for a situation on the drive over. The crew had just been called to respond to an emergency medical situation up the road, which had been the Kobers, when Jessica's husband, Ryan, knocked on the station's door.

would help ease congestion. “If we could get people off these bottlenecked roads, that would help,” Alex Pfaffe said, looking over large maps laid out on tables for residents to add their comments to problem areas. “There are other ways out but they’re all barricaded.” Pfaffe would like to see the 42nd Street barricade in the Timberline neighborhood opened. He lives next to the barricade and said opening it would allow the neighborhood residents to connect to Route 202 without flooding the 37th Street intersection in order to connect to Sahalee Way. Malcolm Rankin, who has lived in Sammamish for 16

It was an unbelievable experience, Anderson said. “We just brought a life into this world,” he said. “Of course, mom did it all. We were just kind of there to catch the baby. … “We love our jobs. Sometimes we go to some really bad calls, things that aren’t fun to see, but it’s these things we live for.” Megan Campbell: 425-391-0363 ext. 5054; mcampbell@issaquahreporter.com

Current plans, he said, are “the bridge to nowhere.” In order for the city to address that intersection, it will require working with the county, which doesn’t have the funding to fix the road, working with state and the city of Redmond, Sammamish City Council member Tom Odell, who also chairs the transportation committee for the city, said. He added the city’s plans will likely change based on the input city staff collected from citizens. “What we originally looked at is going to be highly modified,” he said. “I want to do this right and I want to get this done in sequence.”

The proposed project, according to event signage, would include sidewalks and bike lanes on both lanes, a 3-foot wide planter stripe to reduce wall costs and tree impacts, and a continuous center lane for left turns. Sahalee Way would also include a 40 mile per hour speed limit, with various improvements to three cross sections, like adding a new signal at Northeast 28th Street and 223rd Avenue Northeast. “The ultimate scope of the project has not been set,” senior project engineer Jed Ireland wrote in an email. “We have received a lot of feedback from the public,” which the new city council will examine in early 2016.
