Both directions of State Route 520 across Lake Washington and northbound Interstate 405 through Bellevue will close simultaneously during the weekend of July 13-14 for critical inspections, repairs and construction.

“� e weekend closure of SR 520 bridge and northbound I-405 will signi� cantly a� ect tra� c across the Puget Sound re-gion,” said WSDOT’s Northwest Regional

Administrator Lorena Eng. “We realize that not everyone can completely change their commute. But for those who have a choice, options such as vanpooling, carpooling or other forms of transportation can help avoid heavy congestion.”

Drivers should plan for long delays on I-90 near the detour routes, westbound SR 520 approaching I-405, northbound I-405 where all tra� c will exit to Southeast

Eighth Street, and I-5 through downtown Seattle. Surface streets in and around Bellevue are expected to experience extra congestion as well.

Friday, July 12, northbound I-405 will close at 10 p.m., and both directions of SR 520 will close at 11 p.m. All lanes of both highways will reopen by 5 a.m. Monday, July 15.

� e shutdown is needed for maintenance

and preservation of the two corridors, state o� cials said. By simultaneously closing both SR 520 and northbound I-405, crews will complete the time-consuming work in a short period, reducing the need for nightly closures over a much longer stretch, o� cials said, adding that there are a limited number of weekends available in the sum-

Chinese investors flock to BellevueMoney spearheads projects downtown; light rail area eyedBY CELINA KAREIVABELLEVUE REPORTER

Mei Young, president of Era Young International, a consulting company for foreign investors, recalls one recent client. Having spent $5 million in cash on a home in Vancouver the young Chinese couple de-cided that they wanted instead to come to Bellevue.

“� e boyfriend came for one day to look while the [girlfriend] was still in China. She didn’t have to come over. � ey were looking for a [luxury] house to buy, without seeing them,” says Young. “I would personally spend weeks looking, but in this case, this is what they want.”

Bellevue’s growing role as a global city is evidenced by the speed at which foreign – in particular Chinese – inves-tors are � ocking to the Eastside, purchasing real estate, developing commercial plots and expanding their compa-nies. � ough Bellevue has been cultivating relations with Asia for some time, the rate of investment is accelerating, says Young.

“Business activity started as a cultural exchange, mostly symbolic,” said Young, who has been in contact with China at a government level for the past 10 years. “It was visiting the Seattle-Bellevue area, for a tour, or the scenery. But the real investment activity started the latter part of last year.”

Paci� c Northwest Ballet’s (PNB) Francia Russell Center in the Bel-Red area faces potential relocation due to Sound Transit’s East Link align-ment along 136th Place Northeast and Northeast 16th Street. D. David Brown, Executive Director of Paci� c Northwest Ballet said the issue was � rst brought to his attention about six weeks ago, when Sound Transit an-nounced design adjustments.

� e line, which is supposed to round the corner just east of the academy, could be altered to account for a 20 mph curve or a 30 mph curve. Early designs indicate that the latter of the two would demand full demolition of the center, though that’s preferred by PNB over the 20 mph option, which would displace part of the academy’s parking and require a modi� cation to its entrance.

“� e ballet, we think, is important to the cultural life of Bellevue,” said

Brown. “We enjoy being there. It’s a good thing for the ballet to have a connection with the Eastside. Forty percent of our subscribers live there and over half of our trustees of the ballet live on the Eastside as well.”

Brown said that Sound Transit, Paci� c Northwest Ballet and the prop-erty owner were in talks. One option would shi� the center to an adjacent property on the same lot, though

To use the lockers, riders must have a BikeLink card with stored value on it. � e card is usable at any available eLocker within the BikeLink system (including those in other counties and states). � e cost is deducted from the card for the time the bike is in the locker.

On-demand eLockers, are able to serve � ve to seven times the number of users as the regular, assigned bike lockers. Cyclists pay for only the time they use the eLocker.

Cyclists can sign up for a card at the BikeLink website or by calling 888-540-0546 and buying a $20 stored-value card. � ey also can sign up for a stored-value

card in-person at the Bicycle Alliance of Washington’s Pioneer Square o� ce, 314 First Ave. S. in Seattle from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.

� e rider selects the duration of time the bike will be parked in the eLocker. When the card is removed, the eLocker door opens and the bike can be placed inside.

If the meter expires before they retrieve their bike, extra time will be deducted from their stored-value card at the rate of 12-cents an hour.

A bike can be stored for up to 10 con-secutive days at a time. However, if the bike remains for more than 14 days, the bike is considered abandoned and will be removed.

Detectives from the King County Sher-i� ’s O� ce, Seattle PD, and the FBI’s Safe Streets Task Force are investigating a series of � ve armed, take-over-style bank robber-ies that have occurred within King County since January 2013. � e latest robbery took place July 1 at the Newscastle branch of Bank of America.

� ree of the robberies have occurred in King County jurisdiction and two have occurred in Seattle PD jurisdiction. Detec-tives are considering the cases as linked at this time and continue to investigate the actual number of suspects involved.

� e July 1 Bank of America robbery is the � rst time two suspects have entered a bank together. All prior robberies were committed by a single suspect entering the

banks.� e May 22 Washington Federal robbery

in Seattle resulted in a suspect � ring a gun-shot inside the bank.

� e June 8 Burien Sterling Savings rob-bery resulted in a bank teller being struck in the face by the suspect.

Law enforcement o� cials say handguns were displayed in all robberies and the suspects have committed the robberies despite several customers and employees being present.

Detectives have now released surveil-lance photos of a suspect vehicle believed to have been used in the February 28 Key Bank robbery. � is vehicle is a blue 1983 – 1987 Mercury Marquis without any visible modi� cations.

A reward is being o� ered through Crime Stoppers of Puget Sound. Callers to Crime Stoppers may remain anonymous and are eligible to receive a cash reward of up to $1,000 if the information leads to an arrest and charge of anyone involved. To be eli-gible for the reward, a person must provide the information through Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477. Tips also can be called in to the KCSO Communication Center at 206-296-3311 or 911.

Bellevue College’s Workforce Education division is now enrolling eligible students for fall quarter in professional-technical pro-grams that prepare them for in-demand jobs in the Puget Sound region. Once enrolled, students can pursue a variety of educational options, including short-term certi� cates and associate degrees, in � elds such as business, information technology and healthcare. Dis-located workers and individuals with limited incomes may qualify for scholarships that cover the cost of tuition and fees.

“Although the economy is improving,

many people in the region are still looking for work, and we have the resources to help them get back on their feet,” said Darlene Molsen, associate dean of Workforce Edu-cation. “� ere have been some cutbacks to federal job training programs, but we want people to know that support is available at Bellevue College.”

For workers who have been displaced from their jobs, BC’s state-funded Worker Retraining program helps individuals update their job skills and return to the workforce. Individuals are eligible if they

are currently collecting Unemployment Insurance, or if they exhausted those ben-e� ts or were discharged from the military within the past 24 months.

Opportunity Grant is another state-funded program o� ered at BC. � is helps individuals with little or no post-secondary education increase their skills and career options through professional-technical training. Prospective students must meet certain income requirements to enroll.

� e Workforce Education division also provides support services to help students succeed, including educational advis-ing and planning, job search assistance, a sta� ed homework lab, and help with applications for federal � nancial aid and employment security’s training approval process.

I’m not a sports writer, which is a good thing, because there are very few team sports I really understand. Football is far too complicated and soccer seems silly.

But I do like baseball, probably because I saw my son play t-ball to All-Stars. Although the thick rule book confounded me, I had the gist down, and rooted heartily for his team.

Growing up in Alaska, where there is no major professional team of any kind, I really didn’t have anyone to root for in big-time professional sports. We had a great hockey team at the University of Alaska, Anchorage, and a minor league baseball team that was pretty good.

Now that I live in Seattle, this is the � rst time I’ve lived where I actually have

a team I can root for. So, I have decided to devote my sports fandom to the

Seattle Mariners because I like baseball, I like Safeco Field and I love the energy of being at a live baseball game. It thrills me. I don’t go all the time as it’s not in my budget, but when I do go to a game, win or lose, I’m in awe of how very good they all are. If a ball was coming at me at 90 mph, I’d duck!

So I get really upset about all the bad-mouthing about the Mariners. Come on people, whatever happened to root, root, root for the home team?

Support here is imperative. � ere are some � ne players on our home team. � is just in: � e Seattle Mariners have two of the top starting pitchers in the MLB this season, and they’ll both be able to showcase their talents at the All-Star Game at the New York Mets’ Citi Field July 16.

Mariners ace Felix Hernandez was named to his fourth American League All-Star team on Saturday, and fellow right-hander Hisashi Iwakuma was selected as an All-Star for the � rst time.

And how about Monday night’s game against the Red Sox? � e Mariner’s crushed them 11-4, and I was whoop-ing in my living room wishing I was there. Raul Ibanez rocks.

Not too shabby.� e last live game I attended, was a good one. In the

eighth inning the other team (I forgot who they were – I’m focused on OUR guys!) tied it up at 3-3. I overheard some guys behind me moaning about how they may as well go home. I turned around and told them to think positive! � e game went into extra time – 11 innings, and by golly, we won, 4-3! See? � ose same guys then high-� ved me!

So don’t give up on the Mariners. � ey’re our team. And I’ll just bet most of you reading this would also duck if a ball was coming at you at 90 mph.

Linda Ball: 425-391-0363, ext. 5052; [email protected]

Got to have faith in the M’s

I recently took a one-week vacation. � e goal was to "get away from it all." But, as the accompanying photo shows, that isn’t what actually happened.

Four of us, myself, my wife, our daughter and son-in-law, went to Lake Chelan. In all, the four of us brought along one laptop, a Kindle, three tablets, four cell

phones, a digital camera, a portable speaker for a Zune and an iPod with a Bose speaker.

We could have le� most of our electronics at home, but they o� en are substitutes for what we would do any-way. My Kindle, for example, merely replaced the books I would have brought along with the plus of being a lot less weight in the suitcase. � e iPod lets us have our favorite music with us and the Bose system makes it

easy to share nd enjoyable. � at said, the other devices were mostly used for playing games and staying in contact with friends.

For my part, I probably come by this attachment to modern conve-niences naturally. My mother always insisted that "roughing it" on vacation meant putting up with a black-and-white TV. I don't remember us ever camping.

Even so, electronics aren't critical for a vacation. While our timeshare had a TV, we didn't watch it much. Instead, we combined to complete a number of jig-saw puzzles – low tech, but still lots of fun.

Story encourages begging on streets

Regarding the article, “Man � nds a life on downtown street”, (June 21,

2013), you are glorifying begging and helping to drive people away from downtown. You are helping to remove shame from what for decades has been rightly considered a shameful pursuit.

In this country, nobody needs to beg. � ere are plenty of taxpayer-pro-

vided and privately funded programs to assist the poor. � ese programs ask for almost no accountability (drug use, warrants for arrest) so there is no excuse to not accept the help they provide – except laziness.

� at's right, I said it. Many beggars simply � nd it easier (and in no way

shameful) to just bypass the system and take their de-sire for cash right to the people on our city's streets. � is behavior is on the increase, not because poverty is on the increase, but because we as a society are welcoming it.

I fear that people who don't follow the news will wrongly conclude that the increase in street corner begging is an indicator that our country's taxpayers are unable or unwill-ing to help the poor.

Please ask yourself: "If I give cash to Dave, will this help him out so he no longer needs to beg, or will this encour-age him (and others) to stay on the city streets."

Just close your eyes and imagine a "Dave" on every street corner and every freeway exit in your city, then ask yourself "Why did we let this get so out of hand?”

� e answer is guilt, naiveté and gullibility.John Carpine, Seattle

Taxes needed for good government� e editorials of the Bellevue Reporter almost always

gripe about taxes and government spending. But without

government programs (roads, police, courts, public health, parks, libraries, public schools, � nancial and environmen-tal regulation, etc), the market system couldn't function and our country would resemble a failed state like Somalia.

In fact, tax rates are historically lower than at any time in the past 50 years, and Washington state has the most regressive tax system in the nation – meaning that the rich pay a lower percentage of their income in state taxes than in any other state, lower even than the middle class and the poor. One reason is our over-reliance on the sales tax and on the B&O tax (which is based on revenue, not pro� t). Another reason is the numerous tax breaks that rich corpo-rations such as Boeing and Microso� enjoy.

Who wants increased concentration of wealth, unaf-fordable college education, congested roads, � lthy air, ugly cities, and welfare for the rich?

As � omas Je� erson said, "I hope we shall take warning ... and crush in its birth the aristocracy of our monied corpora-tions, which dare already to challenge our government to a trial of strength and bid de� ance to the laws of our country." Don Smith, Bellevue

Those quietly hoping a new lead singer would change the sound of the state’s largest union of public school teachers are in for a disappointment.

It hasn’t and it won’t.Kim Mead assumed the presidency of the Washington Educa-

tion Association on July 6, making her the new front woman for an 82,000-person band of classroom teachers, administrative sta� and community college instructors

On Tuesday, she was belting out many familiar refrains of her predecessor Mary Lindquist when talking about lawmakers’ performance for public schools in the just-completed marathon session.

“� ey didn’t do their job,” said Mead who took o� ce following nearly 13 years guiding the Everett Education Association.

Lawmakers paid scant attention to the two primary con-cerns of the union, teacher pay and class size.

While lawmakers boast of putting an additional $1 billion into public schools, she said, none went toward a cost-of-

living adjustment for teachers which voters endorsed when they passed Initiative 732. She said that means it will be six years without a state-funded COLA.

And they put only a small portion of money into reducing the number of students in classes. � at’s an authenticated way of improving student achievement, which lawmakers continually insist is their primary goal, she said.

“If that hope (for a new tune) was out there they were mistaken,” Mead said. “� e person who sits in this seat doesn’t speak for themselves. � ey speak for the 82,000 members. � e last time I looked they’re waiting for a public school system that is not just adequately funded, but amply funded.”

Mead, 53, started teaching in the Everett School District in 1985. She stopped being a regular � xture in the classroom in 2000 when she was elected president of the union’s a� liation in Everett. � at’s been a full-time, union-paid gig.

Everett schools Supt. Gary Cohn heaped high praise on Mead for her “forward-thinking leadership in the work we

have been doing in Everett.”Now Mead’s talents will be tested as she becomes a key

� gure in the statewide education debate.Right away, she’ll be in front of the debate about charter

schools. Last week, a coalition led by the WEA sued to block the voter-approved law legalizing the publicly funded, alterna-tively run campuses.

“If private enterprises are going to be allowed to run them and receive public money, that’s not fair,” she said. “� at’s something we continue to � ght for every year.”

� is fall, the WEA will certainly get involved in trying to elect people to school boards and to a couple of contested legislative seats.

When it comes to the Legislature, Mead must adjust from working with a superintendent and � ve-member school board to dealing with 147 elected o� cials each convinced they know best how Washington’s public school system should be run.

She already knows she will be pressing lawmakers in 2014 to comply with the court mandate to fully fund basic educa-tion, which includes teacher pay and smaller class sizes.

� ere will be leaders of other interest groups in the educa-tion debate pushing those same lawmakers to enact reforms before spending too much more in those areas.

� is is not a new � ght. So it’s no surprise the WEA’s song will remain the same.

Tutta Bella will open a restaurant at Crossroads Shopping Center this fall. � e 300-seat, 7,000 square-foot restaurant will be the largest of the chain's � ve restaurants

Construction already is underway and expected to be completed in Sep-tember with plans to open in October. It will occupy the former location of Crossroads Bar and Grill and include a four-season patio.

Founded in 2004, Tutta Bella has been named the ‘Best Pizza in Seattle’ by Seattle Weekly, ‘Best Family Res-taurant’ by Seattle Magazine, and ‘Best Pizza Joint’ by ParentMap Magazine.

Owner and founder Joe Fugere and Executive Chef Brian Gojdics are both certi� ed “pizzaioli” (pizza makers) who trained in Naples, and Tutta Bella was the � rst restaurant in the Northwest to earn a VPN certi� cation from the Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana.

“Each time we choose to open a new location, we take a number of factors into consideration. It goes well beyond just where we think we can be successful," Fugere said. "In the case of the new Crossroads location, we chose it because we genuinely believe

it’s a community on the rise.It’s got ev-erything – growing families, cultural diversity, businesses large and small, and an interest in authentic food.”

Tyler Kopkas will serve as General Manager and Mariano Valdovino will head up the culinary sta� as Kitchen Manager.

In addition to authentic Neapolitan pizza, � atbread, and calzones, Tutta

Bella’s menu includes salads, cra� cocktails, beer, wine, espresso and desserts.

Tutta Bella's other locations arein Columbia City, Stone Way, Westlake, and Issaquah.

Tutta Bella will be located at the main entrance to Crossroads on 156th Avenue Northeast and will be open seven days a week.

ture, Maxwell was previously elected to the Renton School Board for eight years. She served all of the King County school boards as their Legislative Representative to the Washington State School Directors Association.

Man pleads guilty in fatal 520 bridge crash

� e driver who drove the wrong way on the 520 bridge and killed a woman on her way to work in Bellevue has pleaded guilty to vehicular homicide. Michael Anthony Robertson made a U-turn while driving eastbound on the bridge on April 4 and smashed into a vehicle driven by Morgan Williams, 58, of Seattle. Williams was headed to work at Eddie Bauer.

� e accident occurred at about 5:30 a.m. He collided with Williams near the Montlake on-ramp. Williams later died at Harborview Medical Center.

According to police, an empty bottle of whiskey was found in in Robertson’s Ford Explorer SUV. He was awaiting trial on another DUI charge in Pierce County at the time of the crash.

Robertson will be sentenced July 26. Prosecutors will recommend a top of the range sentence of 126 months in prison.

Meydenbauer BeachPark reopens

Bellevue reopened swimming at Mey-denbauer Beach Park on July 3 a� er it was temporarily closed a day earlier due to high fecal bacteria levels in the water.

All other Bellevue beaches had tested within a normal range. � e source of bacteria remains unknown, but a sewer line has been checked and no leaks have been detected. � e city will continue to test and monitor the water.

Swimming in locations with high levels of bacteria presents a health risk, though fecal bacteria does not always belong to humans. Geese, gulls and ducks are also sources of the pollution. High levels also could be an indicator of a failing septic system, sewage over� ows or the inad-equate treatment of municipal waste.

for lump sums of cash and a bilingual site launched by the city of Bellevue last year all suggest the changing business climate.

Young points also to a pipeline of 20 projects downtown, spearheaded largely by Chinese investors. One client she says hopes to buy the commercial zoning along light rail and Bel-Red Road. A several decades-long development that could reach from 120th to 140th, he has plans also to build residential neighborhoods catering to Chinese nationals. In Newcastle a 125-unit Asian retirement community expected to break ground in 2014, is also indicative of demand.

“What we’re also seeing [is] more corporations, much larger and well organized corporations coming over and looking at investing in our properties,” says Tom Chang, director of the Paci� c Northwest region for East West Bank, one of the largest independent banks focusing on U.S. and China markets, with two branches in Bellevue.

Bellevue’s obvious role as a tech hub and a platform for prominent Asian-American � gures like Mayor Conrad Lee o� er one reason for the attraction. But other factors, like the Eastside’s low crime rate, top-ranked schools and recovering economy also contribute. China’s own real estate value has risen as � nancial policy tightens, and many want a safe place to invest their fortunes.

“� e diversity is another [reason]. We know close to 30 percent of the population in Bellevue is Asian. You want to go where you belong,” says Young. “[� e Eastside] they can see as their home.”

� e surge in investors and new neighbors has led to industry o� shoots. A certi� ed real estate agent, Young says Chinese nationals o� en look for homes with positive feng shui, which may mean a second kitchen (one for deep frying and stir frying, another for aesthetic purposes), views of the water and mountains. And quite a few are paying for those luxury homes with cash.

“I understand where the concern is coming from,” admits Young. “When cash buyers move to the region, they create competition in the market.”

Chinese nationals paying in cash easily beat out other bid-ders who have to apply for mortgages. Concerned residents note that these purchases o� en operate as secondary homes, threatening to turn some pockets of Bellevue into “zombie neighborhoods” with absentee homeowners.

But Young is quick to point out the silver-lining. Whereas Vancouver, British Columbia, and San Francisco used to be magnets for Asian investors, now Bellevue has become a destination, a � nancial boost the Eastside should welcome, says Young. Fi� y percent of the real estate recovery on the Eastside is due to cash buyers. And, she adds, when Chinese travel they spend an average of $6,000 per person, the high-est of any nationality while abroad.

“To speak frankly,” says Young. “When a visitor comes over now, we take them straight to Bellevue and the Eastside to look at the projects here.”

Chinese policy limits the wiring of more than $50,000 by individuals out of the country, annually. � at can make investing in places like Bellevue di� cult. But where there is a will, there is a way. East West Bank o� ers services catered speci� cally to foreigners, featuring for instance o� shore col-latoral loan programs, with platforms in both the U.S. and China. Investor visas o� er another conduit.

“Personal relationships are very important in the [Chinese] business community,” says Young from an outpost in China where she is on a three-week-long business trip. “I could probably talk to [my clients] over the phone…But I think it’s important to be there with them and to go visit their project and sit down with them for dinner…that’s important to attract Chinese investors.”

Being able to anticipate the needs and questions of inves-tors – ranging from how to � le taxes, to how to form an LLC – is equally critical.

She adds: “� is time next year, we will see a lot of Chinese nationals with a lot of cash and � nancial product. � ey’re coming this way.”

mer to complete work on numerous road construction and maintenance projects.

“Combining closures helps us limit summer weekend impacts on drivers while still allowing us to complete major work,” said WSDOT tra� c engineer Mark Bandy. “Scheduling this type of work isn’t easy. It must be carefully coordinated with other regional construction projects and avoid weekends such as Seafair, the Bite of Seattle and Bellevue Arts Festival.”

On I-405, crews will replace the 50-year-old concrete

panels in the two le� lanes between SE Eighth and Main streets, the length of a dozen football � elds. Later this summer they will replace panels in the two right lanes. � ey will also grind the concrete on certain sections of I-405. When the project is complete this fall, drivers will experience a smoother ride with improved traction.

On SR 520, bridge maintenance crews will inspect the � oating bridge. � e annual inspection, which includes testing, maintenance and repairs, must occur dur-ing calm weather. Eastside Transit and HOV Project construction crews will take advantage of the closure to install an 11-foot-in-diameter � sh-friendly culvert — the project’s largest and deepest to date — beneath all lanes of SR 520 east of 108th Avenue NE.

Overlake Terrace will provide drinks and light refreshments for an informational Caring Hearts event in July to introduce the free services provided by the volunteers from Eastside Friends of Seniors.

� e event will be from 5:30-7 p.m. July 16 at the retirement community, 2956 152nd Ave. NE in Redmond. � ere will not be a request for � nancial donations during the short presenta-tion.

Eastside Friends of Seniors was founded in 1997 to enhance the lives of independent seniors living in Issaquah and on the Sammamish Plateau. � e organization grew to o� er its free services to seniors in the Snoqualmie Valley and expanded into Bellevue last year.

� ere is no cost to attend the event and no � nancial re-quirements to receive the free assistance from the non-pro� t organization. Volunteers from Eastside Friends provide rides to and from medical appointments, help seniors with shop-ping, housework and routine home maintenance.

“Our goal is to allow seniors to remain independent and live in their own homes for as long as they want to [be] there,” said Tracy Fitzsimmons, board president. “A� er all, that’s where they really want to be in most cases.”

� ere are always more requests for assistance than available volunteers, according to Executive Director Claire Petersky. She emphasized the Caring Heart event is open to all potential volunteers, seniors and anybody in the community who wants to get involved.

A Second Annual Gathering for Seniors to support the work of Eastside Friends of Seniors has been scheduled for noon on Friday, Oct. 11 at the Bellevue Hilton. Information on the organization and both events is available at eastside-friendsofseniors.org or by calling 425-369.9120.

With summer in the Paci� c Northwest come lon-ger, warmer days when many sun-starved men, women and children take to the outdoors for

boating, hiking, walking, biking or working in the garden.But we’re not always as diligent as we should be about

applying sunblock and, unfortunately, that “healthy glow” we get from being in the sun too long can result in more

freckles and premature aging. Tanning and sunburns cause the skin to lose elas-ticity and wrinkle prematurely.

Also, ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun is the number one cause of skin cancer. One blistering sunburn in child-hood or adolescence more than doubles a person’s chances of developing mela-noma, the most dangerous form of skin cancer, later in life, according to the Skin Cancer Foundation.Getting sunburned is more common than it should be – 42

percent of people polled reported experiencing sunburn at least once a year, the foundation reports.

Protecting ourselves from exposure to the sun’s UV radiation is the most important thing we should do to maintain healthy skin year-round. Every day, we should wear a sun block with an SPF of 30 or greater on our face, ears, neck and forearms. UV rays can be harmful even on cloudy days when 70-80 percent of ultraviolet radiation is still penetrating through cloudy skies.

Make sure the sun protection you choose provides adequate protection against ultraviolet A and ultraviolet B

rays. You’ll know you have the right product if it is a broad-spectrum sunblock, such as those containing zinc oxide or titanium dioxide. Other tips for keeping your skin healthy and youthful this summer:■ Apply sun protection 30 minutes prior to exposure and

reapply a� er water exposure or every three to four hours. ■ Avoid exposure to the midday sun when possible. ■ Wear sun-protective clothing like broad-rim hats

and full-length shirts and pants (with adequate ultravio-let protective factor – or UPF) when enjoying outdoor activities.■ Schedule an annual full-body skin examination by a

dermatologist. ■ Perform monthly self-skin exams. If you notice spots

growing or changing in color or size, or a spot that doesn’t seem to � t in with other spots, then arrange for an evalua-tion by a dermatologist.

In addition to increasing the risk for skin cancer, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration reports that unprotected exposure to the sun’s UV rays can cause irreversible eye damage, allergic reactions and suppression of the body’s immune system that can leave you more vulnerable to diseases like skin cancer.

� ere is really no safe tan. If you want to look tanned, consider using a temporary bronzer or self-tanning lotion. � ese products can give you the desired look without the damage.

Overlake Medical Center in Bellevue is now the only hospi-tal in King County o� ering bronchial thermoplasty to patients su� ering from severe asthma.� e procedure gives people a non-medicated, proven way to control their asthma symp-toms, resulting in 32 percent fewer severe asthma attacks.

Bronchial thermoplasty is a minimally invasive outpa-tient procedure in which a thin � ber optic tube is passed through the mouth of the patient and into the airway. Using the tube, doctors are able to deliver precisely-con-trolled heat to the airway wall, which reduces any exces-sive smooth muscle around the airway. By reducing this excess smooth muscle, the ability of the airway to constrict is diminished, signi� cantly decreases the likelihood of an asthma attack.

“� is is a novel approach to the treatment of asthma that does not use medications to control this debilitating disease,” said Dr. Amy Markezich, the associate medical director of the Pulmonary Division at Overlake Medical Clinics.

According to the Washington State Department of Health more than half a million people in Washington state have asthma and approximately 5,000 people are hospitalized every year. Bronchial thermoplasty has been shown to not only result in 32 percent fewer severe asthma attacks but also 84 percent fewer emergency room visits and 66 percent fewer lost days from work, school and other activities due to asthma.

“Patients 18 or older who have persistent asthma and who are still getting exacerbations despite using inhaled controller medications are candidates for bronchial ther-moplasty,” Dr. Markezich said.

‘ANGEL’ VISITS BELLEVUE

Victoria’s Secret Angel Candice Swanepoel stopped by the Bellevue Square store Wednesday to visit with fans and promote the popular chains new swimsuit line. Fans had the chance to meet with the South African model between 5 and 7 p.m., when she posed for pictures and signed autographs. Bellevue won the visit because of its high volume of tweets in a contest earlier this year. Makeovers, a live DJ and other giveaways rounded out the visit. The day of Swanepoel’s visit, Twitter quickly erupted with photos and messages about the supermodel. Other stops along the summer tour include Milwaukee and Orlando.

� e Library Connection at Crossroads will close temporarily beginning July 22 for interior improve-ments. � e renovation, being led by library architect David Scott Risner, is expected to last eight weeks, with a planned opening in the fall.

Opened in 2002, the Library Connection at Cross-roads has the highest circulation per square foot of any branch in Bellevue, including the main location at 1111 110th Ave. NE. Rebecca Tuck, managing librarian at the Bellevue Library, said the Crossroads location circulates approximately 571,000 items annually.

� e renovation of the Crossroads location comes on the heels of the completion of a new parking garage at the downtown location.

Improvements being made at Crossroads over the next several weeks are to include new paint, furniture and carpet. � e renovated location also will feature a new Automated Materials Handling Machine, which will allow patrons to return materials to the location 24 hours a day.

"It gets materials to the shelfs a lot faster," Tuck said. "And it helps us keep up with the increased demand."

Patrons are encouraged to visit other KCLS locations including the Lake Hills Library at 15590 Lake Hills Boulevard, during the closure. To learn more, visit www.

kcls.org/bond/crossroads/ or call 425-747-3350.

Before the season even began, Marcus Tibbs knew he had plenty to prove both on the basketball court and in the classroom.

Two years removed from playing organized hoops,

Tibbs returned to coach Jer-emy Eggers’ Bellevue Col-lege squad for the 2012-13 season without any illusions about what the year meant for his hopes of enrolling and playing at a four-year college. He would not only need to play big minutes, but show he could produce and handle a team as the full-time point guard.

And he would have to do all of that while proving he could continue to keep his academic work on track, something that had previ-ously stalled his budding career.

“Before anything, it was about my school work,” he said. “I was taking care of that � rst.”

� at work had already paid o� by the time the basketball season rolled around, as Tibbs � nished the � rst quarter with a 3.8 grade point average, his

best to date. On the court, things were going smoothly as well.

“I kicked o� the season pretty well,” he said. “Ev-erything was just starting to click.”

A 28-point e� ort helped his team to the � nals of the Bulldogs’ tournament and Tibbs said both individually and as a team, the chem-istry was apparent. � e Bulldogs put on a midsea-son win streak before drop-ping consecutive games to Whatcom and Shoreline, and hoped to use a televised home game against Penin-sula College to regain some momentum.

He said the postseason implications combined with a familiarity amongst players, including two from his native Tacoma, led to an atmosphere that grew in

intensity as the game wore on. By the time Tibbs pushed his team’s lead to ten points as the fourth quarter clock ticked down, tensions had grown past the breaking point.

Peninsula College’s Arnold Anderson was called for his ��h and �nal personal foul on the play and threw an elbow in the direction of Tibbs before being led away by teammates. But before he could be escorted o� the court, the seasons of both players took a dramatic turn when he landed a blindsided punch to Tibbs’ jaw, breaking it and ending his Bellevue College career in the process.

Tibbs was unable to comment on the nature of the incident because of pending litigation, but he said it was the last way he expected to �nish his time on the court for Eggers and BC.

“It was devastating,” he said of the news his season was over. “But once it hit me, I knew I had to do the best I could to get back into school. My goals were still the same o� the court.”

While his team tried to regroup without their emotional leader and �oor general, Tibbs spent the next six weeks on a liquid diet with his jaw wired shut. It was more than three months before he could get back on the basketball court and two more be-fore he could participate in full scrimmages and contact drills.

During that time, the same schoolwork that cost him time on the court became his lifesaver and even though he was unable to play, Tibbs continued coaching his two youth basketball teams through the select program Friends of Hoop.

“Being in the game basically kept me going,” he said, adding he installed hand

signals to call plays for his team while he was unable to talk.

Michael Crosby, a 16-year-old and student at Bellevue Christian School, said he has played for Tibbs for three years and even when compared to local coaching legends like recently retired Mike Downs at BCS, Tibbs stands out.

“He cares a lot about his players,” Crosby said. “Sometimes he will just call me out of the blue and give me that con�dence boost.”

Tibbs said that is a lesson he learned from Eggers, a man he said is like a second father and whom he has known since his time at Decatur High School. For Eggers, it has been no surprise how Tibbs handled the incident and maintained his focus as a coach and student-athlete.

“As a basketball player and student-ath-lete and a citizen, he is a role model,” Eggers said. “I expect big things out of him.”

A�er narrowing his choices to three schools, Tibbs ultimately chose to head north to continue his career and education and is set to begin studying Kineseology and playing basketball for the University of Victoria in August, �nally realizing his dream of playing at a four-year college. He said Eggers and the rest of the coaching sta� at BC played a crucial role in connect-ing him to the Vikes, which �nished 20-9 overall last season.

“I fell in love with it,” he said, adding he plans to minor in Education with plans of someday becoming a teacher. “I want to get back to coaching to give back.”

Some of his current youth players were in the stands the night of the punch that ended his season, and Tibbs said he hopes they will remember the ensuing months of perseverance far more than the action that led to them.

“Even when you get knocked down,” he said. “Stay strong and positive.”

Baden Baseball won the Seattle Pre-

mier League Invitational last week at Bel-levue College, beating the Federal Way Buzz 15-5 in the title game. �e team dropped one game in pool play before beating Taylor 9-4 to earn a spot in the title game.

Interlake’s Liu, Groenhout lead locals at AJGA event

A pair of Interlake golfers led Bellevue-area �nishers at the Ryan Moore Junior Championship at RMG Club at Oakbrook in Lakewood, as Andy Liu shot 70-75-73-218 to �nish in a tie for 26th place on the boys side and Aleana Groenhout �nished with a 76-85-75-236 to end the tourna-ment in 16th among the girls.

�e three-day event, sponsored by the Puyallup native and PGA Tour pro Moore, is the only stop in Washington for the AJGA in 2013.

On June 24 Odle Middle School sixth grader Eshan Kemp represented Washington state at the 2013 National 'You Be � e Chemist' challenge in Philadelphia, where he took home the top prize.

"I felt really proud of myself," said Eshan, who studied four to � ve hours a week in advance of the competition. "And happy, because I studied really hard."

Held at � e Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts, � e You Be � e Chemist (YBTC) Challenge is an interactive academic competition cre-ated by the the Chemical Educational Foundation as a means to engage grade 5‒8 students in learning with their peers (and their community) about important chemistry concepts, scienti� c discoveries, and laboratory safety. � e challenge also serves to introduce students role chemistry plays in all of the sciences and in their everyday lives.

More than 20,000 students from

around the country participated in the 2013 Challenge cycle at the local level.

� e top 27 students – one from each participating state and the Dis-

trict of Columbia - and their families made the trek to Philadelphia for the chemical industry sponsored national competition.

Eshan quali� ed for the National competition a� er taking � rst place as the regional quali� er on April 28.

More than two hundred excited family members, educators, and chemical industry representatives gathered to cheer on the 27 national participants. A� er battling through nine rounds of Chemistry-related multiple choice questions, Eshan emerged as champion.

In addition to participating in the competition, competitors had the opportunity to visit Philadelphia landmarks including the Franklin Institute, the Liberty Bell and the National Constitution Center.

All National Challenge participants received prizes such as � ames & Kos-mos chemistry sets, gi� certi� cates to the Discovery Channel Store, plaques, T-shirts, bags and other giveaways. � e top four placing participants received trophies, TI-84 Plus Silver Edition Calculators, and scholarships for future educational use.

BALLETCONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

more than $5 million in renovations would be needed, an alternative, says Brown, that while outside PNB’s budget, is preferred at this point.

“We’re not in a position to help with relocation costs,” said Brown. “We don’t have those funds. We fundraised for the space, just ten years ago. It would be di� cult for us to go back and ask [those donors] again to support what they’ve already supported, or to put o� other projects that the ballet has planned.”

PNB has been in Bellevue since 1986, when it � rst opened an academy near Coca Cola’s distribution plant. Ninety students enrolled in that inaugural class. PNB soon outgrew the space and launched a campaign to raise funds for its move and expan-sion. A� er locating and renovating an old Gold’s Gym that had gone out of business, the Francia Russell Center opened in fall of 2002. About 1,000 students now use the center.

“� e school is obviously...a huge cultural asset to the city,” said Kevin Wallace, who � rst brought the issue to the attention of sta� and fellow councilmembers during an arts commission brie� ng Monday, Jul. 1. “� e Eastside is still so much younger than Seattle with respect to the arts, and so we have far fewer institutions like this. Losing even one would be a big loss for the overall culture and vibrancy of Bellevue.”

Brown said that while PNB supports transit on the Eastside, he doesn’t view East Link as an immediate asset to the ballet, in large part because of the demographic of students. � e academy caters to a younger crowd with class titles ranging from “PNB Tots” to Mommy and Me workshops.

Concerns about noise mitigation along the alignment have been raised throughout East Link discussions. So� ening the curve along 136th Place and Northeast 16th Street would allow the train to round the corner more quickly and likely more quietly, say sta� . Sound Transit also expects the 30 mph curve would require less maintenance.

“� e lion’s share of attention for this project has been on segments B and C, which is the neighborhood segment and the

downtown segment…� ere really hasn’t been as much attention paid out here, in Bel-Red” said Wallace. “But we’ve had success in working with Sound Transit and its board members in get-ting them to recognize important issues like this. I’m hopeful we can continue a good relationship.”

Geo� Patrick, spokesperson for Sound Transit, said talks were still underway, adding that the agency is responsible not just for ensuring fair market value, but in funding the reloca-tion of tenants. Brown says he expects to know within a month, whether ST will be able to help with relocation costs, or if the ballet will have to start looking for alternatives.

“Bellevue is an important community for us,” said Brown. “We’re happy to be there and we’d like to continue to.”

With the East Link route through Bellevue now decided, the city is seeking a vision for each station area. � e goal, o� cials say, is to value out of transit for each area.

� ere will be six light rail sta-tions in Bellevue:

■ South Bellevue, where the park-and-ride now is;

■ East Main, on 112th Avenue Southeast, south of Main Street;

■ Downtown, on Northeast Sixth Street;

■ Hospital, in the Medical District; and

■ 120th Avenue Northeast and 130th Avenue Northeast, both in the Bel-Red area.

� e planning will focus on the

area within a quarter- to a half-mile radius of each station.

While the city and Sound Transit will collaborate on the design of the East Link facilities, the city will plan the areas around the stations with guidance from residents. Likely discussion topics will include pedestrian and bicycle access, land use and development.

City policy precludes land use changes in the single-family residential and environmentally sensitive areas around the South Bellevue and East Main stations. Planning and zoning is already in place for transit-oriented develop-ment (TOD) around the down-town, 120th Avenue and 130th

Avenue stations.Additional analysis will re� ne

plans for speci� c sites such as the proposed park-and-ride lot at the 130th Avenue station. � e city sees considerable redevelopment potential for the Hospital/Wilbur-ton area.

� ere will be public involve-ment at all phases of the process, including open houses, work-shops and community walking tours, in addition to the use of social media and the city’s website (www.bellevuewa.gov/light-rail-station-areas.htm) for communi-cation.

Citizen advisory committees or ad hoc groups may be formed

for each station area where broad or complex issues need to be ad-dressed.

� e City Council approved the overall station area planning work program in May.

During the coming months, sta� will continue outreach with stakeholders as well as ongoing background research and analy-sis. Station area planning for the South Bellevue station also will start during the summer.

� e overall station area plan-ning program will continue through 2015. Planning for di� er-ent stations will vary depending on the range and complexity of the issues.

� is week we invite you to take a look at one of Bellevue's busiest inter-sections. In 1937, the intersection was home to the Lakeside Center (Bellevue's � rst shopping center) and Bellevue Mo-tors. And today….

Bellevue seeking a vision for each light-rail station Bellevue relaxessignage rules

� e Bellevue City Coun-cil approved an ordinance to reduce the amount of space a company would have to occupy to use signage in downtown Bel-levue. � e new rules allow for company headquarters of 120,000 square feet or more, though buildings are still not permitted to have more than one company’s sign per tower, and no more than two signs total. Some had complained of the previously restrictive poli-cies and council and sta� argued that the changes might further incentivize business in the city.


If anyone knows how to reinvent himself, it’s Kenny Loggins. First, he was one half of the uber-popular pop duo, Loggins & Messina. Next, he was the go-to for blockbuster movie anthems. Now, he’s the mastermind behind, Blue Sky Riders, a country trio consisting of himself and Nashville staples Georgia Middleman and Gary Burr.

� e Reporter recently caught up with the group, in advance of their show at Snoqualmie Casino this weekend:

REPORTER: How is this project dif-ferent than other projects you’ve done?

Burr: Well, I’ve been a writer for hire in Nashville for 20 Years. For me this is a big thrill. I like being the guy o� to the le� , but I didn’t realize I wanted to be the guy at the front of the stage. � is gives me that for the � rst time.

Middleman: [Generally] I write with so many di� erent people, that I never have control of the � nal product. With Blue Sky Riders, it feels good to ful� ll steps all they way, from a to z. � at’s what happens when you are the artist and the business people.

Burr: Absolutely. We felt, if anyone was going to tell us our songs suck, it was going to be us.

REPORTER: What makes Blue Sky Riders work?

Middleman: We really respect each other. We are all fans of each other. It’s a real respectful collaboration.

Loggins: I would also say it’s the vo-cal blend. It’s the things that you can’t actually plan. We got lucky with that, all of us were shocked by that.

REPORTER: What inspires your

songs?Burr: One of the things is that we all

like what each other does, but we all wanted this to be a di� erent musical entity. We have to really work to keep a song in the middle so it doesn’t sound too much like one person.

Middleman: For me, it’s when you bring in song ideas to other writers. It’s a neat surprise because you never know what you’re going to get. I’m con-stantly surprised by this band.

Loggins: I’m inspired by the fact that I am in the room with two great writ-ers. And wherever the song wants to go, we can go there.

REPORTER: What’s your favorite song to perform?

Loggins: “Just Say Yes,” is the one we’ve recorded most recently. It’s a year fresher than most and I like message - it speaks to me. I would say “Dream” - lyrically - matters to me, and I see it connecting with people in the audi-

ence. Burr: I like “I get It” right now. It’s

the scariest one we have to perform, because it’s so complicated. I have to concentrate on that the most, but I like the challenge.

REPORTER: What do you hope fans walk away with a� er your show?

Burr and Loggins: A CD [laughs].Burr: Our shows - we have a lot of

fun on stage - and that translates to an audience. We want people to feel that.

Loggins: It’s especially gratifying when an audience leaves saying “I didn’t know it was going to be this good.” I believe this tour coming up - we’ve been setting up for this for two years. I think we’re about to see the tour we dreamed of.

It’s not just civic leaders who leave a hole in a community when they die. Michael O’Neill, who passed away June 19, knew more about the lives

of a long list of Bellevue residents than political lead-ers know about most of their constituents.

I’m talking about people who spent half an hour or more with him every � ve to six weeks talking about their families, jobs, favorite sports teams, struggles and suc-cesses, while he cut their hair at Flamingo Salon, Salon Tewl and, � nally, Salon Bella.

I believe most stylists know how to cut hair well. But skills alone were not what drew clients to Mi-chael. All who parked themselves in his chair knew the time they spent

there was going to make up for a bad day at work, an argument with a spouse, or a letdown they’d just experienced.

A repository of anecdotes he’d collected over the years, he parceled them out one at a time, a guar-antee that customers would come back for more. My favorite stories were ones he told about himself, including the one that follows.

Up to the end Michael talked with his hands, the same hands that held a pair of tiny scissors next to a client’s face. I always closed my eyes and squeezed hard when he was in the middle of a particularly engrossing tale, worried that the scissors would clip my forehead or strike an eyelid, but they never did. At one point, though, he confessed that while my worry was unfounded at this stage in his career, years earlier his scissors had grazed the skin above

the eyebrow of a client and drawn blood. She was angry and he was embarrassed, not only while they were in the salon, but later that day when Michael’s boss took him to a local restaurant for a consolatory beer. As it turned out, there was no chance that alcohol was going to help Michael forget his traumatic experience since the same client, now wearing a bandage on her forehead, worked as a barmaid and was assigned to their table.

Michael loved all sports and knew the Las Vegas odds for and against every team in any sport. He’d o� er me “four to one odds with a three-point spread in favor of the Seahawks next Sunday” and then have to translate what he’d just said. I think he designed this pastime more for his male clients, but didn’t want to exclude any potential donors, which I was when I bet against him once and lost four dollars.

Michael wasn’t just a talker. He listened with appreciation and commented on everything I said, something I’m sure he did for all his clients. Beyond his gi� s as a storyteller were his kind heart and a genuine interest in hearing about other people’s lives. All of us who found a friend, who happened also to be a good hair stylist, will miss him immensely. It would be worth it to lose a few more dollars in a bet if we could see him again.

Bellevue has launched a new website in partnership with Bellevue College and others to help residents increase sustain-ability.

Bellevue’s GreenWA.org website o� ers users interactive maps, videos and information that showcase a variety of options for more sustainable living on the Eastside. � e site o� ers informa-tion on how to produce clean energy at your home, drive cars without gas, � nd local farmers markets or learn the right time to visit local streams to see them full of � sh.

Users of GreenWA can use a tablet device, smart phone or per-sonal computer to navigate the site’s features. � e site is organized into six main subject categories – Natural Environment, Mobil-ity, Green Building, Local Economy, Culture & Community, and Reuse & Recycle.

Visitors can surf through a “Maps” section, which uses icons to display resources, infrastructure and engagement opportuni-ties; a “Tours” section comprised of videos clips on the topic; and a “Knowledge” section with written content, links and ad-ditional learning opportunities.

“We wanted to create a fun, easy, way for people to become aware of the sustainability value of these wonderful assets in their community, and to make the connections between the social, economic and ecological assets and their quality of life and community,” said Sheida Sahandy, director of Bellevue’s Environmental Stewardship Initiative. “And the really exciting part is that we want to grow the site to allow active community participation so that, for example, a school could do a project with students geo-locating their favorite trees and posting them on our maps.”

� e website’s “Get Involved” page encourages users to contribute to a Public Tree Map, posting noteworthy trees and sharing the stories behind them.

Other community partners contributing to the site include the 12,000 Rain Gardens for Puget Sound campaign, Northwest SEED, Cascade Bicycle Club and Cascade Water Alliance.
