Bellevue is changing. We see it in the growing population, the new high-rises in downtown, the worsening tra� c. But that doesn’t mean that community has to be lost. At least that’s what Bellevue resident Patty Gordon believes.
� at’s why Gordon decided to bring the “Before I Die” public art installation to down-town Bellevue.
� e “Before I Die” wall is an interactive public art project which invites people to share their hopes and dreams in public space. � e wall, constructed by Gordon and her husband, Paul, is at the corner of Main Street and Bellevue Way.
� e concept behind the wall came about in 2008 when New Orleans-based artist and urban planner Candy Chang painted an abandoned building in her neighborhood with chalkboard paint and stenciled it with a grid of the sentence “Before I die I want to ______.” Within days the wall was � lled with her neighbors’ aspirations.
Since then, more than 100 “Before I Die” walls have been created in more than 10 languages, in more than 30 countries.
Gordon said she started thinking about bringing the wall to Bellevue a� er stumbling across Chang’s story a year ago.
“I’m really interested in public art,” Gordon said. “And I’m passionate about trying to build community.”
At the time, Gordon’s two kids were at-tending Bellevue High School and she was frequenting the Bellevue Way corridor. She decided the location near the now-defunct KFC would be the perfect location.
“I thought, wouldn’t it be nice to get that building looking cool during development?” Gordon said.
She said the location’s proximity to busi-nesses in the downtown area, as well as it’s proximity to the school, ensures there will be a variety of people walking by the wall on a daily basis. Her prediction seems accurate, as Bellevue’s wall has already been � lled – twice.
In addition to getting approval to use the building from the landowners – one of which happened to be an old fraternity brother of her husband – she also had to get the OK from the city.
“� e city was super supportive in having it there,” Gordon said, explaining that she met with Mary Pat Byrne, arts specialist for the city.
Gordon plans to stop by the wall once or twice a week to take photos of the entries and wipe it clean so more people can share their thoughts. Photos will be posted to the “Bellevue’s Before I Die Wall” Facebook page as well as on Chang’s website (BeforIDie.cc/bellevue).
Ultimately, Gordon hopes Bellevue’s “Be-fore I Die” wall will encourage a better sense of community, and help Bellevue residents feel more connected with their neighbors.
“We’ve kind of lost the whole front porch idea of talking with your neighbors,” Gordon said. “� is is kind of my stab at creating a front porch.”

The ultimate bucket listDisplay asks, ‘What do you want to do before you die?’
Forum to showhow to keepyour kids safe
To help parents answer the monumen-tal question – “How do I keep my kids safe?” – the city of Bellevue will host a forum April 18 with experts including the Bellevue School District superintendent, a police o� cer assigned to schools and a mental health counselor.
At the forum, people will get practi-cal tips to minimize risks, and be able to ask questions about speci� c concerns they have. � e forum will encourage dialogue, help the public gain an un-derstanding of signs of distress in youth and introduce prevention techniques and intervention services that create a web of support for Bellevue youth.
“Life is so precious. Yet in the past couple of years, we’ve been reminded time and again by suicides or acts of vio-lence that not every young person feels this way,” said Patti Skelton-McGougan, the executive director of Youth Eastside Services, who will be a moderator at the “Keeping Kids Safe in Our Community” forum, 7 p.m. on � ursday, April 18, at Bellevue College’s Carlson � eater.
� e forum will include a panel of experts from the local mental health, education, and law enforcement. In ad-dition to Skelton-McGougan, Bellevue Police Chief Linda Pillo will moderate. � e panelists are:
Megan Kennedy, Mental Health Counselor, School Outreach, Youth Eastside Services
Danny Hanson, Violence Prevention Coordinator, Youth Eastside Services
Lt. Joe Nault, Supervisor, School Ser-vices Unit, Bellevue Police Department
Dr. Tim Mills, Superintendent, Bel-levue Public Schools
Michelle Proulx, Bellevue School District, K-12 Counseling Curriculum Developer overseeing bullying preven-tion, Counseling and Social Emotional Learning Programs
Ilse Braun, Social Worker, Children’s Hospital

Bellevue girl to be honored for life-saving donationsRachel Beckwith, a 9-year-
old girl from Bellevue, will be honored for her gi� s of organ donation during a Donate Life Month ceremony April 15 at the Washington State Capitol Build-ing in Olympia.
She will be one of six honored at the 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. event that will include Gov. Jay Inslee.
In May of 2011, Rachel asked that in lieu of birthday gi� s that year that her family and friends
help raise money for a charity to bring clean drinking water to African villages. When her birthday came around in June she had just narrowly missed her goal of raising $300.
She died one month later,
but then charitable donations on her webpage skyrocketed, raising over $1 million for the non-pro� t charity: water. She also was able to save three lives by donating both of her kidneys and her liver.

� e Bellevue Special Enforcement Team (SET) arrested a proli� c regional burglary suspect, Andy Max Ellis, 28, on March 28 and recovered what they called massive amounts of stolen property, guns and drugs.
A total of seven guns were recovered, multiple guitars, musical instruments, jewelry, 59 grams of methamphetamine, and 4.5 pounds of marijuana. Detectives are still si� ing through the recovered items and identifying owners.
"� is is an excellent example of regional law enforcement working together to solve crime," said Bellevue Police Chief Linda Pillo. Tacoma Police, Gig Harbor Police and the Pierce County Sheri� 's O� ce assisted Bellevue in the investigation and in serving the search and arrest warrants.
Ellis was arrested, along with two others, Paul M. Valencia, 31, and a 30 year-old male yet to be charged, during a high risk tra� c stop in Tacoma. Burglary tools and two ounces of methamphetamine were taken into evidence. All suspects are Ta-coma residents.
Bellevue SWAT, Tacoma PD, Gig Harbor PD and Pierce County Sheri� 's O� ce as-sisted Bellevue detectives with the search of Ellis' apartment. During the search, detec-tives recovered property linking Ellis to six recent burglaries including the � rearm taken in a Gig Harbor burglary. � ey also discovered a marijuana grow room in the apartment.
Ellis' roommate, a 28-year-old male, who was home during the search, was arrested for possession of a stolen � rearm and pos-session of methamphetamine. He has not
been charged.During interviews, Ellis cooperated and
confessed to more than 100 burglaries in the region within the last eight months and at least four in Bellevue. Prior to being booked into King County Jail, he showed detectives homes in Bellevue that he bur-glarized.
Valencia confessed to being the driver in burglaries in Bellevue along West Lake Sammamish Boulevard, Newcastle and Issaquah. More locations are still being identi� ed.
King County prosecutors � led charges against Ellis for eight counts of residen-tial burglary and two counts of the� of a � rearm. Charges � led against Valencia were two counts of residential burglary and one count of the� of a � rearm. Additional charges are pending on all suspects.

A stando� in Bellevue between King County Sheri� 's deputies and a man wanted in a Renton shooting ended peace-fully Wednesday night when the man surrendered.
According to KOMO News, the man, a 23-year-old Renton resident, was spotted by deputies in his parked car in the 4800 block of Lakemont Boulevard. When depu-ties approached, he put a gun to his mouth and threatened to kill himself, according to Cindi West with the King County sher-i� 's o� ce. � e Renton shooting incident involved a man being shot in the leg.
During the long stando� , the man's girl-friend sat down in the parking lot between
deputies and the man's car and wouldn't leave. A hostage negotiator eventually talked the man into surrendering.
"We just want him to give himself up safely. We don't want him to hurt himself, but we're also concerned for our safety because he may turn the gun on us," West said.
During the incident, a nearby shopping center, which included Matthew's � ri� -way, was locked down with employees and customers inside. Customers who were inside the grocery store were told via a loudspeaker that they couldn't leave. � ey were eventually led away from the front windows and let out the back of the store, KOMO reported.

Larsen (‘Blueberry’) LakeLarsen Lake is named a� er Danish immigrants Ove Pe-
ter and Mary Larsen. � e Larsens acquired 160 acres near the lake in 1889. Ove worked at the Newcastle coal mines, and his wife and children grew vegetables and harvested wild berries to sell.
Ove Larsen moved to Seattle in 1916, making way for the Aries family farm. � e Aries brothers, who had purchased half of Larsen’s property in 1913, operated a very successful farm at Larsen Lake. � e Aries farm shipped produce as far away as Alaska, the Philippines and Yukon Territory.
In 1944 entrepreneur Louis Weinzirl purchased 45 acres of farmland and planted it with blueberries. He sowed multiple varieties, which allowed him harvest continuously from early July through mid-September. Over the years, the body of water was uno� cially renamed “Blueberry Lake.”
Many young people worked in the blueberry � elds during the harvesting season. � e Weinzirls hired a few boys to work on the farm year-round. � ese young men could earn between $600 and $1,000 a year, and some high school boys paid for their college educations in this manner.
� e Weinzirls retired from the blueberry farm in the 1960s. � e city of Bellevue purchased the farm in 1970 as part of a 63-acre parcel that would become Lake Hills Greenbelt Park. � e blueberry farm is still in operation. Like the Overlake Blueberry Farm at Mercer Slough Park, the Larsen Lake Blue-berry Farm is owned by the city and leased to farmers.

� e escalator accident Dec. 12, 2012 at the Bellevue Square Macy’s that injured seven people has been blamed on a loose skirt panel next to the steps that snagged on the moving stairway, jamming it and breaking the escalator’s chains, according to a news release by the state Department of Labor and Industries.
In addition, the agency said, three of the escalator’s safety-stop systems failed and the malfunctioning escalator was shut down only when a passer-by pushed a manual stop button.
In all, the L&I accident investiga-tion found 32 code violations, 15 of
them directly related to the accident. � ey included failure to maintain the escalator to code and failure to conduct its required annual safety test in April 2012.
L&I said the escalator is maintained by Macy’s, which has a maintenance contract with the Schindler Eleva-tor Corp. � e investigation showed Schindler did not do the regular maintenance and safety checks that would have prevented the accident. � e escalator remains red-tagged and out of operation until all code viola-tions have been � xed.
Jose Rodriguez, Assistant Director
for Field Services and Public Safety, said L&I will now require the com-pany to clearly outline the steps it will take to bring all of the escalators and elevators it maintains up to the state’s safety codes, and will be continually monitoring the company to ensure it carries out the corrective actions.
Soon a� er the Bellevue Square malfunction, L&I ordered Macy’s and Schindler to conduct internal safety inspections of the mall’s three other escalators with state inspectors pres-ent.� ose checks also revealed numer-ous safety problems, which were � xed before they went back into operation.

� e race may go to the swi� , or to the stroller-and-pet enriched, or even to a child. According to Chris Monger, President of the Bellevue Breakfast Rotary Club (BBRC), it might go to “all the above” - when runners and walkers of all abilities gather on Sunday, April 28.
Up to 3,000 runners and walkers will put their feet to the ground that day and run or walk to help save and enrich lives of children.
� e seventh annual Bellevue Run will include the Over-lake Hospital 10K Run, the Y Family 5K Run/Walk, and the Seattle Children’s Kids Dash. All three will raise funds to support Seattle Children’s Autism Center, Kindering, and the BBRC Foundation, which supports local and global service projects and nonpro� ts with a focus on saving and improving the quality of life for children and families.
“We’re a fun loving bunch of people,” Monger said with a smile, “Which is important when you’re getting up at Zero-Dark-� irty to set up for something like this.”
Over 270 volunteers from the BBRC and the local com-munity plan and put on the event, which has grown every year since it was started in 2007.
Registration starts at 6:45 a.m. and exhibitors for the
Starbuck’s Village will arrive early to set up along the south parking lot drive in Bellevue's Downtown Park near the start and � nish line.
Activities for children are available during the event. � e Children’s Kids Dash is the � nal running event, beginning at 9:30 a.m.
Early registration and volunteer sign-ups are underway and more information about the BBRC, the event and its bene� ciaries are available at visit www.bellevuerun.com.

The battle lines are � nally being drawn in Olym-pia over how to pay for state services in the next biennium. To say there’s a di� erence is an
understatement. � e good news is that Gov. Jay Islee’s budget and
both the Senate and House versions pour more money into education: $1 billion in the Senate budget and $1.2 and $1.3 billion in the governor’s and House’s versions respectively. � at’s not really surprising, given that the state Supreme Court mandated the state to “amply” fund our schools. But it does acknowledge the need is real, and it’s being treated as a priority.
� e di� erences, of course, is where each budget � nds the money. And that is where the � ghting will occur.
Both Inslee and the House want to extend some taxes and close some loopholes. � e Senate gets to its bottom line more with some cuts and fund transfers.
None of the three is perfect, but all of them have things that should be considered.
� ere are a number of state taxes set to expire this summer. Inslee and the House Democrats want to extend many of them; the Senate doesn’t. No one likes taxes – new or extended – but the state hasn’t yet fully recovered from the recession and continuing to get money from some of the taxes might be warranted.
� e same can be said of closing loopholes. Some are so old and out of date that they deserve to die.
We expect to see and hear a lot of rhetoric poured out from all sides. But let’s keep it short. � e � nal budget will borrow from each of the versions being promoted. Lawmakers need to focus on that and cra� a budget that most of us can live with.

There are many degrees of mistakes.
A barista forgetting your extra shot of espresso is a relatively small mistake that usually can be eas-
ily amended. Hitting “Reply All” on an email not meant for all could potentially be a larger mistake, depending on what kind of emails you’re in the busi-ness of forwarding and who exactly makes up, “all.”
Most people characterize driving drunk as a mistake, or at least in some cases, that is how it is rationalized a� er the fact.
Driving under the in� uence has come to the forefront of our con-sciousness again in recent weeks, as another wrong-way DUI killed an employee of Eddie Bauer in Bellevue not long a� er a family was torn apart by a repeat drunk driver in North
Seattle and a high-pro� le University of Washington football player was of-� cially charged for a one-car crash.
As always, all the cases raise far more questions than they provide answers.
According to the Governors High-way Safety Association, which touts itself as “� e States’ Voice on Highway Safety,” on its website, our state laws are on the harsher side in terms of punitive action.
Folks in Virginia likely think our 90-day license suspension is high, since drunk drivers in the Com-monwealth receive only a seven-day suspension for a � rst o� ense.
� e latest cases in our area have people suggesting the already manda-tory ignition interlock devices for DUI o� enders be put in place before the car is even returned from the inbound. But in a handful of states, including Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Ken-tucky, Maine and Ohio, they are “dis-cretionary,” even upon conviction. In California, four counties are part of a
pilot program for mandatory ignition interlocks while the rest of the state is decided on a case-by-case basis.
� e place for growth, and a point of emphasis in any future discussions about state DUI policy, is on repeat o� enders. Our current state law is an over-arching policy on “Habitual Tra� c O� enders,” which is a group including those guilty of vehicular ho-micide, vehicular assault, hit and run, reckless driving, DUI and some other related o� enses. � ree convictions in a � ve-year period earn a seven-year suspension.
But it shouldn’t take three DUIs or two dead bodies and another near-miss for drastic action to be taken.
I’m not pretending to have all the answers, but I know we need to keep talking and � nding ways to try and keep our streets and highways safer.
Since as well all know, everyone makes mistakes.

The future of some of Bellevue’s longest established residential neighborhoods, as well as the
city’s signature environmental reserve, the Mercer Slough Nature Park, will be determined by the City Council this month.
Will our neighbor-hood streets be � lled with hundreds of cars cutting through, putting our children at risk as they walk to
Enatai Elementary School? Will the beautiful drive along a
class-one wetland become an indus-trial nightmare with 40-foot-high concrete walls?
Or, will the city take the proper measures to mitigate the impacts of Sound Transit’s proposed East Link Light Rail project?
So far, the city and Sound Transit have done a commendable job of working together to maximize the bene� ts of the pending light rail proj-ect, while minimizing its impacts. My hope is this will continue, and both the City Council and Sound Tran-sit board will do the right things to minimize the most egregious impacts of East Link to our neighborhoods and park.
Speci� cally, they have the choice of whether or not to stay with the plan to place the train in a trench, or have it take over the two northbound lanes of Bellevue Way. � e trench would
minimize the visual and noise impacts of the train, as well as reduce any en-croachment into the Enatai neighbor-hood. � is design would also allow much lower walls along the west side of Bellevue Way.
Another key decision is whether or not to add a southbound lane on Bel-levue Way to handle a major increase in future tra� c. � e city’s expert transportation sta� reported the new lane would prevent nearly four hun-dred cars from cutting through Enatai.
It would also help prevent Bellevue Way from being reduced to two or three lanes during years of light rail construction.
While a new southbound lane on Bellevue Way would cost the city more than the at-grade rail alternative, it would provide much more value and be a worthwhile investment.
� e council does seem committed
to protecting our neighborhoods, but there’s not much more that can be done.
Enatai has already gone through Bellevue’s process for evaluating and installing tra� c calming devices. � e result was that only three of the eight proposed measures for 104th and 108th avenues southeast quali� ed, and they have already been built.
It will only take four members of the City Council to determine the fate of the neighborhoods, Bellevue Way South and the Mercer Slough Nature Park. � e best opportunity to voice your support for protecting our quality of life is to comment at Monday’s public hearing.
Todd R. Woosley has lived in Enatai for 15 years. His two children will be walking to elementary school during light rail’s years of construction on Bel-levue Way. He also served on the neigh-borhood’s tra� c calming committee.

BY KEEGAN PROSSERBELLEVUE REPORTER
Overlake Medical Center in Bellevue is now o� ering an alternative to invasive heart surgery for patients seeking to � x problems that don’t require the breast bone to be broken. � e “Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery” (MICS), was introduced by Dr. Robert Binford this fall. � e procedure aims to reduce trauma, pain and recovery time, while decreasing blood loss, and the chance of infection.
Prior to working at Overlake, Binford worked as a heart sur-geon in Tennessee, where he and is partner were doing approxi-mately 75 of the surgeries a year.
� e purpose of the surgery tis to � x tissue that supports the heart valve’s opening which can weaken and lose its shape over time. To repair this condition, a device called an annuloplasty ring or band is sewn around the base of the heart valve to re-shape it and give it support.
Sammamish resident Mark Phelps had the surgery in Febru-ary, a� er discovering his heart’s mitral valve was not working correctly. Phelps was the � rst patient to have this surgery at Overlake.
Phelps said it took him about a year to sense that something was wrong with his heart and that he needed to take action. � rough a series of tests it was discovered the mitral valve in his heart was failing, and that his heart was pumping 50 percent more blood (than is standard) to maintain his status quo during rest.
Binford said with an invasive, or “open procedure,” it takes between three and four months for a patient to fully recover, with restrictions on how much they can li� for the � rst 12 weeks. Patients who have this procedure done are generally able to return to a desk job a� er six to eight weeks; patients returning to a more physical job usually return in three to four months.
However, the less invasive procedure allows a quicker turn-around. Binford says the weight restrictions only apply to the
� rst two weeks a� er surgery. Patients who have the less invasive procedure are also able to leave the hospital sooner, can drive one to two weeks a� er surgery and can return to work in a week’s time.
In addition to � xing problems with the mitral valve, Binford said the minimally invasive procedure can be used on the aortic valve, tricuspid valve, holes in the heart and irregular heart rhythms.
“Who knows what we can do in 10 years,” Binford said. “Be-cause things keep getting better.”

Overlake Medical Center has received the Health-grades Patient Safety Excel-lence Award for the sixth year in a row.
“Ensuring patient safety is always a top priority at Overlake,” said Craig Hendrickson, Overlake president and CEO. “By
focusing on safety we are leading the way in provid-ing exceptional quality and compassionate care for our community.”
� e Patient Safety Excel-lence Award places Over-lake within the top 10 per-cent of all hospitals for its performance in safeguard-
ing patients from serious, potentially preventable complications during their hospital stays. On average, patients treated in Patient Safety Excellence Award hospitals were also:
■ 81 percent less likely to experience hip fracture following surgery com-
pared to hospitals ranked in the bottom 5 percent in the nation;
■ 80 percent less likely to experience pressure sores or bed sores acquired in the hospital compared to hospi-tals ranked in the bottom 5 percent in the nation;
■ 70 percent less likely to experience a catheter-related bloodstream infection acquired in the hospital compared to hos-pitals ranked in the bottom 5 percent in the nation.

When 240 ninth grade students at Sammamish High School were as-signed to think critically about global agriculture, their � ndings didn't just end up on desks of their three teach-ers. � ey presented their results to members of both the Agricultural Development team and Foundation Management team at the Bill & Me-linda Gates Foundation.
Working in small groups, students researched challenges in either Sub-Saharan Africa or South Asia and devised a solution in the form of a mock grant proposal where they identi� ed the strategies and resources required to help farmers overcome these issues.
� en, within each class, the students selected the best group presentation and idea to represent their class and present their solution in the Visitor Center theater to the public at the Seattle-based founda-tion.
One group proposed more e� -cient border regulations between na-tions to make markets more acces-sible. Another focused on education and compared their project idea to a ripple, whose e� ects would radiate outward to expand the impact.
Each group concluded their
presentation by sharing some key things they learned.
“Not every area is as fortunate as our own, but we can still work to improve the areas that are less fortu-nate in the world,” one report noted.
A student o� ered, “I learned that we have responsibility as a devel-
oped country to less developed countries.”
Another observed that "work-ing with the Gates Foundation has shown us how di� cult it is to solve global problems and gives us a greater appreciation for what they do.”

Robotics team members from Newport High and International School in Bellevue will head to St. Louis, MO, on April 27, where they will compete in the FIRST (For Inspiration of Science and Technology) Robotics Champion-ship. � e competition, which will be held at Edward Jones Dome, will feature 322 teams from across the country.
� e Bellevue students won their trip to the championship a� er taking � rst place at the Seattle Regional FIRST Robotics Compe-tition. � e competition featured teams from 64 schools that com-peted to see whose robot could toss the most Frisbees through a goal at the end of the � eld.
As part of the regional competi-tion, students had six weeks to build a remote-controlled robot using a standard kit of parts and a common set of rules.
The Newport Robotics Group had the highest scoring robot out of all teams in the competi-tion. The team also went unde-feated in the competition and was the No. 1 seed going into the finals, which enabled them to choose its alliance partners. The Newport team chose Inter-national School’s Titan Robot-ics, which finished as the 26th seed with a 5-4 record, as well as Aviation High School from Highline School District.
Bellevue's Interlake was the No. 4 seed a� er the qualifying rounds, but was eliminated in the quarter-
� nals; Sammamish High School was part of the alliance that beat Interlake and � nished as the No. 52 seed, and Bellevue High � nished as the No. 40 seed.
� e competition in St. Louis if free and open to the public.

Greene has presented hundreds of workshops and seminars, both nationally and internationally and Daneshmandi has been helping people choose and learn about their cameras at Omega Photo for the last seven years.
Participants should bring all of their camera gear, boots, and rain jacket along with a sense of adventure.
Cost for the workshop is $50, which includes admission and parking, and reservations can be made by calling Omega Photo at 425-455-2126. Space is limited to the � rst 16 paid participants. Photos from last year's tulip bloom are on Omega’s Facebook page, www.facebook.com/ome-gaphoto.
� e Eastside Audubon Society will hold its annual Northwest Native Plant Sale on Saturday, April 27, bringing together rare and popular plants, knowledgeable gardening advice and habitat improvement for birds and butter� ies.
� e event will be from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Kirkland Children’s School, 5311 108th Ave. NE.
More than 120 plant species will be arranged in nine areas representing various types of plants, such as ground covers, � owers, and berry
producers. Plant specialists and an informative sign for each plant species will help people pick the plants that will enhance their garden and bring in birds and butter� ies.
“Locally found birds and butter� ies thrive best when they can feed upon the fruits, seeds, � ow-ers and bugs that are found on plants and trees native to the Paci� c Northwest,” said volunteer sale manager Geary Britton-Simmons, who has bought, grown, and dug up 4,000 plants for the sale. “A great deal of Paci� c Northwest habitat
has been replaced with pavement and non-native � ora, and now wildlife needs us to restore some of the native plants.”
� e sale will feature many varieties that don’t turn up at commercial garden centers: Upland Larkspur, White Fawn Lily, and Black Huckle-berry, among others. Also available will be popu-lar favorites such as Western Trillium, Woods Strawberry, and Red Huckleberry.
Sale proceeds will fund Eastside Audubon’s work in conservation and education.

HOME GARDENGARDEN& • H O M E I M P R O V E M E N T•
HOMEHOMEHOMEHOMEHOME2013 S� ing
� e past few years have not been kind to lawns and gardens across the country. � e summer of 2012 brought severe drought to much of the Midwest and a good portion of the country continues to experience drought conditions.
Homeowners have two choices in dealing with drought: try to water enough to keep grass and plants alive and looking good, or implement long-term changes to make yards more resistant to extremely dry and hot spells.
Fighting drought can be time-consuming and expen-sive. With forecasters and scientists predicting warming temperatures and more extreme weather events as the new normal, there’s plenty of evidence to suggest that droughts could become more common and severe in the future. Making some changes to your approach to landscaping can keep you from worrying about your water bill and the well-being of your lawn when the weather isn’t quite cooperating.
Here are four ways to drought-proof your yard:◗ Choose your plants wisely. You may want to choose
plants solely based on aesthetics, but picking plants that thrive with less water is the key to keep your yard looking good no matter the conditions. Talk with the experts at your garden center about which types of plants make the most sense for your climate, and which ones might be a little more drought-resistant than others.
◗ Go easy on the grass. For some it’s hard to imagine a picturesque yard without a lush and expansive yard. But
Four ways to drought-proof your yardthe truth is, a green lawn usually requires a lot of water to maintain. If you don’t want to part ways with your lawn in favor of natural landscaping that’s more water-friendly, you have another option: synthetic turf.
◗ Add mulch. Covering the soil around your plants with a layer of mulch or compost can help improve water reten-tion, inhibit growth of water-hungry weeds and cool soil temperatures to keep your plants comfortable when temperatures rise. Natural mulches break down and are absorbed into your soil, which means there’s little mainte-nance besides adding a new layer when appropriate.
◗ Make your water work harder for you. No matter what you do to drought-proof your lawn, you’ll likely still have to do some water-ing. Drip irrigation systems can make your water go further by applying it directly to the root of plants. If you’re watering by hand, water in the morning when tem-peratures are cool, and apply water to the soil rather than directly to the plants. Installing a rain barrel is a great way to put the water that runs o� your house to good use -
and you can use that water even if watering restrictions are in e� ect.
If you’re tired of maintaining your yard when the mercury soars and the rain stays away, it might be time to adjust your planting strategy this spring to make your yard naturally resilient. Most drought resistant improve-ments are good for the environment too, allowing you to feel good while you also save yourself time, money and e� ort.

Several nights ago I sat at the dining room table with my son to work on the � nal
touches of a science project. He had a packet to � ll out which included space to draw graphs and charts of his collected data, research in-formation and a conclusion. � ere was also a special page dedicated to a bibliography.
He had used several books from the library and I was walking him through the process of the appropriate format for a works cited page. He
got frustrated trying to remember which came � rst, the city of publi-cation or the publishing company.
Next he had an article from the Britannica Online database and I showed him how the citation was already created for him at the bot-tom of the article. He only needed to copy it down. Finally he put down his pencil and asked, "If it’s already there, why do I have to write it again?"
� is won’t be the last time I have to check my tongue and tell him how easy his research will be compared to mine. He won’t want to hear about my early research experiences lugging around the Readers’ Guide to Periodical Literature or waiting outside in
below freezing temperatures for the college library to open so I could get my articles for a paper. And he will never in a million years understand the contraption I used to type those papers.
His research experience has (and probably always will) take place in the comfort and con-venience of his home or school computer lab, on his time.
He put his pencil down and waited for an answer.
I paused and bit my tongue because what I really wanted to say sounded dangerously close to something a curmudgeon would say like, “you kids these days have it so easy” and “get o� my lawn.” It can’t be easy being a librarian’s
kid.Instead I told him the plain-
est truth: it matters where your information came from and just because it is convenient and easy to get, you still must cite your source.
My kids may never understand requesting articles and waiting weeks for them to show up, or un-furling miles of micro� lm for one mention of a research topic. By today’s comparison it was hard, no doubt.
I feel it is my parental right to tell them how di� cult it was to conduct research that way. I will also tell them I walked 10 miles to the library every day. Uphill both ways, and in the snow.

The Bellevue City Council will hold two public hear-ings on Monday, April 15. One hearing is on cost sav-ings options for the East Link light rail project; the other is on interim zoning to regulate medical marijuana.
Monday’s hearings will be part of the council’s regular meeting, which begins at 8 p.m. in the council chambers of City Hall, 450 110th Ave. NE. The public hearings portion of the meeting is anticipated to begin at 8:30 p.m. or later.
East Link cost savings optionsPrior to the public hearing, the council will hold a study
session beginning 6 p.m. to discuss cost savings recom-mendations by a steering committee composed of staff
from the city of Bellevue and Sound Transit.Bellevue has been working with Sound Transit since
early last year on ways to reduce or eliminate a portion of the city's financial contribution for a downtown light rail tunnel.
Cost savings options involve the alignment along Bellevue Way, 112th Avenue Southeast, and the loca-tion of a downtown light rail station. Final action by the council and Sound Transit Board on these options will establish the East Link alignment for final design and permitting.
The council is scheduled to choose which cost-savings options to endorse at its meeting on April 22; the Sound
Transit Board is expected to make a final selection at its April 25 meeting.
Medical marijuana gardensLast May, the council adopted an ordinance and held
a public hearing to establish interim zoning to regulate medical marijuana collective gardens for a six-month period. In October, the interim zoning was extended for another six months. Monday's meeting will provide an opportunity for the public to comment regarding medi-cal marijuana collective gardens, and for the council to consider extending the ordinance for an additional six months.

When Newport senior Angela Chen talks about last season, she can’t hide her smile for long.
While the Knights were busy winning the 4A state team championship on the boys side, Chen and good friend Aime Vo stormed through the girls bracket to capture the doubles title with three 2-0 wins.
� ird-place � nishes during her � rst two state tourna-ments and an injury that derailed part of her sophomore season made the win that much sweeter.
“� e season was awesome,” Chen said. “With the guys there winning state, the energy was amazing the whole tournament.”
If Chen hopes to again hoist a trophy in the Tri-Cities, she will do it without a partner a� er assuming the number one singles spot for new coach Ryan Pang and the Knights.
Pang, a standout during his own prep days at Mercer Island and player at Santa Clara University, coached high school tennis in California a� er college and has worked with Chen and a host of the Eastside’s other top players for a number of years as a private instructor on Mercer Island. He said while all of them possess talent, Chen’s demeanor on the court separates her and provides a distinct edge.
“Most girls, even experienced players, they get so ner-vous,” Pang said. “Angela is a straight line the whole way
and if she needs to turn it on, she can.”So far in 2013, there has been little need for that. Chen boasts a perfect record on the season and has yet
to even drop a single set in any of her victories. Even with defending champion Sammi Hampton of Skyview return-ing for another shot at the state’s top prize, Pang said Chen has a realistic shot at capturing another title, this time in the singles bracket.
From the � rst time he met her nearly seven years ago, Pang knew he had something special.
“She was 12 playing against 16-year-olds,” he said. “She was ripping the ball side to side, hitting winners. I was thinking she could probably beat me.”
Chen said during her � rst three years, much of the focus at practice was on creating a team atmosphere, with little work on the technical aspects of the game like speci� c shots and court coverage. While the plan worked to near-perfection as the boys and girls celebrated together in a banner year for the entire program, it le� Chen to re� ne her skill set with club coaches.
With the addition of Pang, one of the most respected instructors in the area, she has found herself becoming an even more aware player through their work together.
“It is great we have a coach with a lot of experience not just coaching but playing,” Chen said. “He really knows what he is doing helping us with strokes and strategy.”
Now, with top-three state � nishes in each of her seasons on the prep court and a host of USTA and amateur ac-colades to her credit, Chen is ready for her � nal act in the storied Newport program.
While club tournaments and USTA events groomed her as a top-level player throughout her youth, Chen said it was the collective atmosphere of the high school team that has allowed her to enjoy the game most.
“I just realized I really work better with a team, with people cheering for me and me having the chance to cheer for them,” she said. “I really like that aspect of it.”

Johnson, Sullivan earn player of the week honors from U.S. Lacrosse
A pair of Bellevue athletes earned honors from US Lacrosse Washington this week, as Bellevue’s Cole Johnson and Bellevue East player Camille Sullivan, a student at Interlake, were each named O� ensive Player of the Week.
Johnson helped Bellevue to three wins with 10 goals, � ve assists and 11 ground balls, including a pair over out-of-state foes in the Northwest Invitational.
Sullivan scored 13 goals and nabbed 13 ground balls in two games for BELAX, which beat Seattle Prep and lost an 11-10 game to Holy Names.
Stats and information from US Lacrosse Washington.
Bellevue wins three of fourCoach Pete Wilkinson and the Bellevue Wolverines
opened 3A KingCo play with three straight wins behind a pair of stellar performances on the mound from Nolan Watson.
� e senior pitcher worked a complete-game shutout, striking out 14 in a 7-0 win over Sammamish. He followed that performance with another complete-game, this time in a 3-1 win over upstart Interlake, which managed only three hits in the loss.
Teddy Roy spelled Watson in a 9-0 win over Lake Wash-ington, working � ve strikeouts in over seven innings to get the win.
� e Wolverines lost to Mount Si 8-0 on Wednesday and host Liberty on Friday.
Preps have top track times � e track and � eld season has yet to begin in earnest,
with the invitational schedule now complete, and a handful of area preps own top times among KingCo competitors.
Budda Baker and Isaiah Gilchrist are � rst and second respectively in the 100 meters, which Baker won at state last year. � e same two are followed by Myles Jack in the 200 and Jack owns the top time in the 400.
Interlake’s Evan Turman has the � � h fastest time in the 200 and seventh best in the 400.
Spike Sievert of Bellevue and Sam Giner of Interlake own the best two times in the 3,200 and Sam Richmond is in front in the 110 and 300 meter hurdles for Bellevue.
Mitchell Stuart owns the KingCo marks for the shot put and javelin thus far, while Interlake senior Pierce Frazier has the highest mark in the pole vault.
Former state placer Nikki Waghani has the best time in the 1600 and teammate Sophie Oscar is out front in the 110 hurdles.
Bellevue’s Laura Reifsny-der is � rst in the 110 meters and teammates Floraine

� ose visiting the Bellevue Arts Museum during this month’s Free Friday event may have encountered a surprise guest in Claudio Bisogniero, Ambassador of Italy to the United States.
� e Ambassador, who is based in Washington, D.C., was in this Washington last week as part of a goodwill visit by the Italian govern-ment.
Before stopping by the museum, Bisogniero stopped by the Capitol in Olympia to speak with the Senate about Italian culture, as well as the potential relationships he hopes to develop between companies in Italy and the United States. Bisogniero’s visit to Washington state - the � rst time representa-tives from Italy have visited the state since 1979 - also included a meeting with Governor Jay Inslee.
� e ambassador said 2013 marks the year of Italian Culture in the United States. As part of the celebration, more than 200 events celebrating Italian culture are planned to take place in di� erent cities around the United States in 2013.
While at the museum, Bisogniero and two consuls to Italy were given a tour a new exhibition, “Zoom. Italian Design and the Photography of Aldo and Marirosa Ballo.”
� e “Zoom” exhibit, which showcases Italian designs from the 1950s and ‘60s as seen by the legendary Italian photographers, is on loan from the Vitra Design Museum in Germany.
� is is the second exhibit from the Vitra that has been showcased at BAM; the � rst was an exhibition showing the work of artist George Nelson, which came to Bellevue just over a year ago.
While viewing the exhibition, Bisogniero said this display is exactly the type of thing the Italian government is looking to showcase this year.
Bisogniero said that stereotypes about Italy o� en revolve around their rich heritage - the art and music from hun-dreds of years ago. Ultimately, the goal of the cultural events taking place this year is to celebrate these traditional ele-ments of Italian culture while also showcasing its creativity and innovation in the modern era.
� e ambassador and his colleagues were guided through the museum by Stefano Catalani, director of art, cra� and design for the Bellevue Arts Museum. Catalani said the mu-seum is excited to feature more Italian artists in the future. He explained the museum is already looking to feature an exhibit about Italian glass art. He said this would be a good � t due to the Northwest’s connection to the medium.

ObituariesVirginia Rose McMonagle
Religious of the Sacred Heart Virginia McMonagle died Easter Sunday, March 31, a� er a brief illness. She was the driving force behind the construction of Forest Ridge Academy
of the Sacred Heart in Bellevue. A memo-rial at the school will be held at a later date.
McMonagle was born Aug. 9, 1921 to George A. and Rose Virginia Tierney McMonagle in Roslyn, Wash. She was the oldest of three children – a sister, Marguerite H. McMonagle, who joined her as a vowed religious, and a brother, George A. McMonagle, SJ, who became a Jesuit brother – both of whom predeceased her.
Her temperament was ap-parent at an early age, when as a six or seven-year-old, she le� the Catholic Church when she discovered that her Presbyterian playmate had a Christmas party at her church and the Catholic par-ish did not.
She went to see the minister, requested to join his church, and he, wisely, said he would think about it. Later it became clear that he had called Mrs. McMonagle, and the two of them had agreed that Virginia would be a Presbyterian until a� er the Christmas party.
� e family moved to the Seattle area in time for Virginia to attend Forest Ridge Academy of the Sacred Heart in Seattle. In 1940, she entered the Society of the Sacred Heart at Kenwood, Albany, NY, on Aug. 24, 1940. She pronounced her
� rst vows on May 1, 1943.In 1963, she returned to
Forest Ridge as principal and engineered the school’s move from its location in Seattle to the high hills of Bellevue.
Memorial contributions may be made to the Society of the Sacred Heart, 4120 Forest Park Avenue, St. Louis, MO 63108.
David V. IrishDavid V. Irish of Bellevue
died March 14, 2013. He was 89.
Mr. Irish was born in Yakima. He later resided in Bellevue where he raised his family.
He was a graduate of the University of Washington and served in the Army in the European theater during WWII. He spend the bulk of his career in advertising
He is survived by his wife, Mary; sons, David and Bill; daughter, Carrie; and six grandchildren.
Remembrances can be made in the form of dona-
tions to Children’s Hospital, 4800 Sand Point Way NE, Seattle, WA 98105
A memorial service will be held at St. Margaret’s Episcopal Church, 4228 Factoria Blvd. SE, Bellevue at 3 p.m. April 27.
