Lake Washington High School students rehearse for the production of the Putnam County Spelling Bee in the school’s gymnasium. Play participants include LWHS students Jessica Andrews, Connor Bergren, Savannah Brady, Kelsey Early, Kimani Iba, Daniel Porras, Zack Pierson, Lauren Scovel and Dallen Smith.

Preparing for the ‘Spelling Bee’

Felicia and her three children were in a bad situation. Her husband was abusive and when she began to fear for her children’s safety she knew it was time to get out. She picked up her kids from school and never returned to the place that had become like “hell.”

But like many victims of domestic violence, she had nowhere to go and faced life in a shelter or even on the streets.

Felicia eventually got in contact with Kirkland Interfaith Transitional Housing (KITH) through her church and things began to turn around.

“Within one week we were in a house,” said Felicia, who’s son is autistic.

“It was as if I had won the lottery.”

Felicia told her story with her caseworker Vicki

Couple survives earthquake in Japan, finds comfort in social media

BY CARRIE WOOD cwood@kirklandreporter.com

A

20-minute cat nap could have been the difference between life or death for a Mercer Island couple that has survived the most powerful earthquake to hit Japan on Friday.

The 9-magnitude quake that struck off the coast of Japan Friday pummeled buildings, set off massive fires and tossed a subsequent 30-foot tsunami over the largely-populated City of Sendai, among others.

Ashley Harris, a registered dietician and owner of

Hotel room on the 19th floor.

Harris said they ran to the doorway and it “just kept progressively getting worse and worse.�

The doors and drawers in the hotel room slammed open and shut, things fell off the shelves and “I almost vomited due to the swaying, almost like being seasick,�

Harris recalled, noting they were not injured.

She said they couldn’t understand the Japanese announcements coming over the loudspeaker. A trembling housekeeper came to their door to try and tell the couple what was happening, but she couldn’t speak English. “We didn’t know whether to stay or go, we grabbed our shoes, jacket and passport in case we had to flee but the maid gave us the hand sign like ‘wait one minute’ and went to ask them to announce in English for us.�

Hotel staff told the couple to stay in their hotel and Harris logged into her Twitter account to check for news.

Then she started Tweeting family members, her patients and even local media. “Traffic in Tokyo is currently very jammed as far as we can see. Flights out of Narita are all cancelled,� she said in one Tweet on Friday.

This is the view from Kirkland business owner Ashley Harris’ 19th floor hotel room in downtown Tokyo. ASHLEY HARRIS, Contributed photo “Just woke up, five aftershocks as we tried to sleep, last one about three minutes ago,� said another Tweet.

As of 5:40 a.m. Tokyo time, Harris and Besecker were still safe in their hotel room, watching the sun come up and CNN reports on TV. However, they were still experiencing many aftershocks.

According to CNN, there has been more than 50 aftershocks so far. “Hundreds of people on the streets below us last night were stranded with no place to go since the trains were shut down and traffic was gridlocked,� said Harris, noting they are also being warned of 6-10 meter waves from a tsunami that could hit.

“We can see Tokyo Bay from our hotel room and should be safe should the tsunami hit.�

Harris, who is set to fly out of Narita Airport on Monday, said the quake was the biggest she has ever experienced and it was scary, especially due to the language barrier.

But she is thankful for social media. “Funny thing about social media is that it ended up the best way for us to get information as it was happening and also to communicate to our friends and family,� said Harris. “I am keeping everyone updated via my Facebook and Twitter.�

Rep. Kirby indicated he had talked about the bill with Kirkland officials, he was referring to me. He has never had a conversation with any Kirkland City Council member,” Springer wrote.

In his letter, Springer also talked about the accusations that the process of attempting to pass the legislation was not open. “... I should have had the bill introduced much earlier in the session rather than as a late addition ...,” wrote Springer, who also said that he did not sponsor the bill because he had sponsored too many bills already.

“Once it was introduced, the bill moved even more quickly than I expected, and it is my fault for not keeping closer tabs on the bill during the process.”

Springer also attempted to clarify the issues surrounding the council: “I can assure everyone that this bill was never requested by any city council member or city staff person ... Kirkland City Council members were not consulted during the drafting of the bill, nor have Deputy Mayor Penny Sweet (Springer’s wife) and I had any substantive conversations about it.”

The issue of stopping the bill has been approached by most involved.

The state House passed a pair of bills Saturday that would authorize tolling on major Eastside highways.

House Bill 1382 narrowly passed by a 52-46 margin.

The bill authorizes highoccupancy toll (HOT) lanes in which single drivers can pay to use carpool lanes, as with the system on State Route 167.

Opposition Republicans made amendments in attempt to stop general purpose lanes built with gas tax funds from being tolled and exempt cars with two occupants from tolls, both of which failed.

The vote was taken across party lines, which may also be the case in the Senate.

Democrats hold a 27-22 majority.

House Transportation Chair Judy Clibborn (DMercer Island) said Republicans “locked up” on the bill, a practice that collectively prohibits the GOP representatives from crossing over to the other side of the aisle in a vote.

She doesn’t expect this to happen in the Senate.

Sen. Margarita Prentice (D-Renton) sponsored the companion version of 1382 in the Senate. She was off the Transportation Committee for the last seven years, but jumped back in the fray to help get this bill done.

Prentice said the concept of tolling the lanes to pay for highway improvements is a valid and previously used one that should be practiced throughout the state. It allows those who really need the extra minutes, to buy them.

“Those of us who feel we can afford to pay a little more do,” she said.

HOT lane proposals on I-405 have received consistent criticism from a group of former legislators. Members of the Eastside Transportation Association have said the concept will create a tiered system that costs too much for the average single driver to buy into, leading to overly congested general purpose lanes, and open, if not empty HOT lanes.

could be further from the truth, but that does not matter right now.

It is my opinion that HB 1812 should not go forward in this environment. It would be a disservice to the legislative process and the citizens of Kirkland and Bellevue.

For that reason, I will request the Senate not pass the bill and that we consider the bill next session. If we do, it must be introduced earlier in the process and hopefully benefit from a frank discussion of the bill’s policy rather than its process.

Sometimes in the rush of the last few days before a legislative deadline decisions are not as well thought out as they should be. I like to think I avoid that trap but clearly not always.

I hope this clears up any misperceptions. Surprisingly, I have had no contact from anyone opposed to the bill. If anyone has further questions or concerns I encourage you contact me.

Larry Springer, State Rep. 45th District

DCNA opposes fire station at Big Finn Hill Park (Scott Morris, DCNA president, read the following statement to Fire District 41 commissioners during a March 8 public meeting regarding a potential fire station at Big Finn Hill Park): The Denny Creek Neighborhood Alliance (DCNA) is a Finn Hill-based neighborhood association with members and supporters from nearly 300

households.

DCNA was established in 1993 to preserve, protect, and restore the natural resources of the Denny Creek watershed and its surroundings. We have been active in forming the Finn Hill Park and Recreation District, in restoring O.O. Denny Creek, mapping the watershed, promoting a zoning ordinance to preserve trees and prevent erosion and preserving the Juanita Woodlands.

Last month The DCNA board of directors considered the fire district’s proposal to construct a new station in Big Finn Hill Park. We voted to express our opposition to that proposal at the public meeting March 8. We did so for one simple reason: green space – in this case, King County park land – must not be re-allocated for development simply because it appears to be difficult or expensive to find an alternative site.

Finn Hill is blessed with significant parcels of forest and wetlands; they are the defining features of this area.

They are priceless recreational and educational resources.

Our woodlands and watercourses are already under stress due to increasing urbanization. If we continue to chip away at them, they will become disconnected patches of green space; their health fail and their attraction to hikers and bicyclists will vanish.

We recognize that Fire District 41 commissioners are responsible for providing adequate fire protection and emergency services at a reasonable [ more LETTERS page 9 ]

Dear “Mom of a Preschooler,�

This is a great question, but also requires a huge answer. Since I am beginning our writing unit of study on “How To� stories in kindergarten, I’m inspired to write my own “How to� to help you prepare your child for school.

Hopefully, this will become almost like a favorite recipe you can follow easily, pass to your friends, come back to again and again, and most of all help you help your child prepare for school.

Read Read aloud to your child every day. Visit the library often, model to your child the love of reading, and especially enjoy that reading time with your child each and every day. Mem Fox, famous children’s book author and author of “Reading Magic,� created 10 Read Aloud Commandments.

One of her commandments is “Read at least three stories a day. It may be the same story three times. Children need to hear a thousand stories before they can begin to learn to read.�

Books, books, everywhere! Put books in the bedrooms, the living room, the bathrooms and even the kitchen.

Talk Talk to your child and possibly more important, LISTEN to your child. Have great conversations with your child about books, everyday things and the world around them. This will not only increase their vocabulary development and communications skills, but also build a strong bond between both parent and child.

According to research done by Jim Trelease, author of “The Read Aloud Handbook,� the average adult in this country spends six hours a week shopping and 30 hours a week watching television, in contrast to daily time spent in one-to-one conversation in homes with school age children. One-to-

Joy Brooke

“Mom of a Preschooler�

one conversation averaged nine-and-a-half minutes for at-home mothers, 10.7 for working mothers, and less for father.

Sometimes we forget that “talk� or language development is the foundation of all literacy (reading, speaking, listening and writing) development.

Tell stories and have your child tell stories.

Before your child can write a story they must be able to tell a story.

Quality matters of course, but so does quantity. Betty Hart, Ph.D. and Todd Risely, Ph.D. from the University of Kansas show in their research a direct link between a child’s academic performance in third grade, and the amount of words spoken in their home in early childhood.

Kids who achieved highest in third grade were those who heard 30,000 words or more from birth to age three.

ASK MRS. BROOKE

D

ear Mrs. Brooke, How can I prepare my preschooler for school?

Play Play with your child and let your child play and discover on their own. I really believe it is important to have a balance here. Children need to create, imagine, initiate games, songs, ideas, and activities by themselves.

Our goal as parents I believe is to create independent thinkers, however many times we parents are doing too much for our little ones, even when it comes to play.

I agree with author David Elkind, who states in his book, “The Hurried Child,� that children need to be bored. Boredom allows our children’s minds to grow.

Many times we are pushing our children to grow up too fast by scheduling them in so many sports, classes, and other activities that there is no time to be bored. So take your child’s interests and run with them.

Play dates

We need to provide social experiences for our children to interact with peers their own age, to learn to solve problems, and also build relationships. I always encourage play dates for my students, especially the ones who are struggling to form friendships or lack social skills.

cost. We recognize that any site the district considers will entail trade-offs, and that the choices they face are complex.

We do not doubt that the district is addressing these matters in good faith.

But we feel strongly that the woodlands in the park are not an acceptable site for a new fire station. We question whether the district has exhausted all other options. We need to hear more from you about each of the alternatives Fire District 41 has considered, whether it has pursued them in depth and what obstacles they present. We hope the district will seriously consider additional alternatives that district residents may suggest.

Scott Morris, DCNA president

No ‘bad guys’ in fire station discussion It seems to me that DCNA is doing precisely what its charter calls for it to do: take a stand against conversion of park land to an impervious surface.

Fortunately, the use of this impervious surface is for a very worthwhile purpose: fire and public safety. Yet that does not diminish the loss of woodlands and parks. DCNA rightly points this out. In this discussion there are no “bad guys.�

Terming DCNA a “special interest group� is correct: it is. DCNA however, is made up of members of the community who vote to elect its board and officers. Because it is the only such “public� organization in the annexation area, it becomes the default organization to speak for the community. With annexation comes the call for neighborhood organizations to join the Kirkland Association of Neighborhoods. Certainly anyone who feels DCNA should not fill this role is more than welcome to step up to found another. I support more than one neighborhood organization on Finn Hill.

It just appears unfair to criticize an existing organization for taking a stand that its charter clearly not only supports, but demands. This is not an “obstructionist� position. It is keeping faith with its charter, its members and the environment.

Frank Radford, Kirkland

Support fire station at Big Finn Hill Park After reviewing the available information from the fire district, DCNA and talking to neighbors, we support locating the fire station at the 138th Place site in Big Finn Hill Park. It’s our belief that it would be an asset to the entire Finn Hill neighborhood to have an optimal location for providing emergency services.

We are less convinced that the full, additional 20 parking spaces over the 10 required for the staff is necessary. If the building is to be made available for community activities such as a place to hold small public meetings, then it would make sense. Otherwise, we’re comfortable with park users continuing to use either the neighborhood or QFC. We’ve always encouraged bikers to park in front of our house which is across the street from the park. Like many of our neighbors, we were caught off guard when we found out that a portion of the park was being considered as a site.

We have lived across the street for over 20 years on the corner of N.E. 134th St. and 72nd Ave N.E. and it has been a major asset to our family and neighborhood. There is a bit of a feeling of loss to think about giving up even a small part for development including something as necessary as a fire station. Still, unless it’s shown that there would be significant environmental concern resulting from either construction or operation, we believe the good provided to the entire Finn Hill neighborhood wins out.

We have supported most DCNA stances over the years, including making donations and understand their take on this proposal as contrary to one of the missions, which is to prevent development in the green areas of the neighborhood. In this case, we believe they have got it wrong. A fire station on the site will be of greater benefit to neighborhood. We all need to remember that we live in a modern community that expects modern services such as fire, police and schools at the most reasonable cost. Regardless of where or when the station gets built, we expect the smart use of public funds to build only what’s necessary and to be mindful that good, integrated design doesn’t

Fire station at Big Finn Hill Park would better serve area I was very disappointed in the official DCNA position as stated by Scott Morris. I support the fire station relocation/ consolidation of Nos. 24 and 25, look forward to having them as a neighbor, and believe the loss of two acres in such a large park for a public essential facility that will better serve our area at a reasonable cost is well worth it. I use Juanita Drive and N.E. 138th to reach my home. The new fire station would be located on N.E. 138th.

DCNA is a special interest, nonprofit group; it is not a neighborhood association that officially represents our community. Too often, elected officials treat DCNA as if the DCNA leaders are elected representatives of our community. Locating the new station within the response area that generates the majority of calls is logical. Finding a perfect site in our urban/suburban area that satisfies all interests is very difficult. This site will work, is reasonable to develop and is affordable. The DCNA’s narrow-minded, obstructionist position of “NO� and demand that Fire District 41 work with DCNA to prove the district looked at all alternatives will just create delays and waste precious time and dollars. The delays will push us past the annexation date and the district will lose what are now dedicated funds to the City of Kirkland general fund. It takes a lot of money to keep identifying, checking, and chasing sites – don’t make the district waste its money on such efforts.

We also want to take this as an opportunity to thank the fire department and staff for the fast response when about 15 years ago, we woke in the middle of the night to find the wall in our bedroom on fire caused by an electrical short. Almost before we knew it, our bedroom was filled with firemen making sure the fire was out and all was safe again. If that were to ever happen again, I wouldn’t mind having a fire station a block away!

her superstructure. They narrowed her main deck from 70 to 56 feet and Black Ball’s owner, Capt. Alex Peabody, called for an entirely new superstructure arrangement for 1,500 passengers.

It was this “modern” streamlined, art deco steel superstructure that immortalized the Kalakala.

The streamlined design had been subjected to wind velocity and other tests by Boeing engineers, not then a common practice in shipbuilding. It was also an out-of-the-ordinary job for the Lake Washington Shipyard’s general manager Paul Voinot, who had to devise numerous special construction methods. Arc welding, then in its infancy as a revolutionary technology, played a prominent role in her assembly.

Her trial run, on July 2, 1935, drew worldwide media attention and more than 100,000 spectators. She began her regular service schedule shortly after, running between Seattle and Bremerton A LOOK TO KIRKLAND’S PAST

O

n May 6, 1933, the “fireproof and unsinkable” San Francisco Bay ferry Peralta burned in a spectacular fire at the Oakland terminal.

Although her hull, designed

by Hibbs, McCauley & Smith, remained relatively sound, her entire superstructure was charred beyond recognition.

Her owners were happy to sell her remains to the Northwest’s Black Ball Line, which towed the hulk north, to Puget Sound and then into Houghton’s Lake Washington Shipyards, which stood at the site of today’s Carillon Point development. When she reached local waters, few people would have believed that the seeming pile of scrap would be rebuilt and reborn the Kalakala, the most recognized ferry on the West Coast, perhaps the world - a testament to Kirkland’s cadre of pre-WWII shipyard craftsmen.

Once moored at the Lake Washington Shipyard, workers removed her engines and the wreckage that had been

during the day. On summer evenings, she made excursion trips around the Puget Sound. She boasted her own eight-piece orchestra, “The Flying Birds” and dancing on three decks. Her interior appointments were impressive .

She was undoubtedly the most photographed vessel in Washington’s history. Post cards, paintings and souvenir materials galore depicted the Kalakala cruising on Elliott Bay against the background of Seattle’s skyline. The Kalakala – which translates to “flying bird” in Chinook jargon - operated on the Sound until 1967. Her maintenance and fuel costs had become exorbitant and she was forced into retirement. Kirkland resident and retired hardware store owner, Sandy Ekins, who rode her in those days, recalls with a smirk that, “She really rattled.”

The Kalakala was sold for $100,000 to American Freezerships towed to Alaska and sat beached near Kodiak where she was used for decades as a fish processing plant until she was finally too worn out for even that purpose.

he Lake Washington baseball team may be used to playing different, bigger schools. They may be used to some tough competition, but dropping down into the 3A KingCo league this year doesn’t mean anything else is going to be easier.

“We know that 3A baseball is very competitive like 4A,” said the Kangs head coach Derek Bingham. “We’re not expecting that, just because we’re moving down, to move straight to the top.

It’s not going to be that way.”

The team returns a core group from last spring, which ended in the KingCo 4A tournament, one win away from heading to state. Bingham said even though the 4A league was tough last spring, including some of the best teams in the state, he knows the 3A KingCo matches won’t be much different.

“Teams like Mercer Island, Mount Si, Liberty and Bellevue have had good programs over the last few years and we’re expecting a good challenge. We’ve played a few of those teams over the last three years in non-league and all of the those games have been competitive so we’re not expecting anything different,” said the coach.

The Kangs are led on the field by captains Spencer Jackson, who plays second base and pitcher, as well as Bob Cruikshank, who plays short stop and pitcher for the team.

Jackson said the team is looking really good, despite dealing with bad weather, which has

to figure out is behind home plate. Bingham said last season’s catcher, who caught every inning of every game for the team, graduated, leaving the team with two catchers who haven’t gotten much game experience.

“They are both talented,” said Bingham. “But that’s going to be a key point for us.”

This year the KingCo league matches don’t begin until the end of March, and the team will be traveling to Arizona for a tournament during spring break, meaning their options for early non-league games have been limited. Baseball teams are only allowed 20 games in a season, per the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association rules. To make everything fit, Bingham said they will be organizing an in-house series to get closer to the game experience.

Already in an only week old season, the coach said he’s seeing a team comfortable with each other and motivated.

“This group cares a lot about each other,” he said. The team’s long standing goal has been to win KingCo, which will take a solid season from beginning to end to accomplish.

“We’re taking it one step at a time, but it starts and ends with KingCo,” he said.

hormonal rhythms that control our daily sleep/wake cycles are forced to change to the new time. One such hormone, melatonin, which helps control sleep, may take up to one week to adapt to the new day. This may leave us tired and lethargic, especially in the morning hours, until a new rhythm is reached.

Melatonin is supposed to be high at night to promote restful sleep and low as we function during the day. It requires strong cues like sunlight to shift it each morning, allowing us to feel refreshed and awake. Add to this the already dark, rainy weather here in the Northwest, and it is no wonder we are the cof-

That’s why it is important to stick to a sleep schedule, going to bed and waking at the same time each day. We should all try to have bright light in the morning when we wake, to energize ourselves for the coming workday.

When we do go to sleep, keep the room as dark as possible, which increases melatonin output and better sleep.

Of course, exercise helps decrease stress and promotes restful sleep. But keep the coffee to the morning!

There are many substances that have an “antihistamine� effect, helping to stabilize mast cells so they don’t rupture and release histamine. There are many natural ones that don’t cause the uncomfortable symptoms of over-the-counter or prescription medications like drowsiness and grogginess, such as nettle leaf (particularly freeze-dried), quercetin (a flavonoid antioxidant found in foods such as onions), vitamin C, and n-acetyl cysteine (an amino acid derivative).

There are also many herbs that can help decrease secretions from the sinuses in the nose and eyes such as eyebright, yerba santa, and goldenseal. Additionally, herbs that support the adrenal glands and have anti-inflammatory effects in general can be helpful, such as eleuthero (also known as Siberian ginseng) and devil’s club, a native plant that has

his is the time of year that people begin to wonder if their stuffed, running noses and itchy eyes are the symptoms of a cold or pollen allergies. While some of the symptoms and treatments are similar, the causes obviously are not. Pollens in the air can cause the body to have an hyperactive immune response when inhaled, which causes histamine to be released from mast cells of the immune system that in turn causes dilation of blood vessels and fluid to leak into surrounding cells. This is the cause of your discomfort.

Why do some people react to these pollens or other aggravators and others don’t?

No one knows for sure, but just like some people are prone to digestive upset and others aren’t, some people have more of a tendency to have allergic reactions.

If you do suffer from seasonal allergies, are you destined to simply deal with them year after year? Not necessarily! Fortunately, there are many things you

ridiculed the fervent religious faith of the Middle Ages.

A sympathetic soul stashed away these banned manuscripts in a Bavarian monastery, where the lyrics, written in Latin and Low German, survived five centuries of desuetude, war and religious turmoil. Brought to light in 1847, they slumbered unsung another century until Carl Orff composed Carmina in 1936, deftly adapting 13th Century plainsong chant to twentieth century tonal modes. By this time, on the

eve of World War II, secular, rebellious lyrics were no longer risquĂŠ but a pervasive mind set popular today.

In addition to the Kirkland Choral Society, this performance will feature the Bellevue Chamber Chorus, the Cantare Vocal Ensemble, and Northwest Associated Arts Youth Choir, with the Sammamish Symphony Orchestra under the direction of R.

Joseph Scott. Each performing group will also individually present several numbers.

Kirkland Choral Society, with Dr. Glenn Gregg conducting, will sing eight Johannes Brahms Lovesong Waltzes.

The concert begins at 2 p.m. in S. Mark Taper Auditorium at Benaroya Hall in Seattle.

The wildly popular Carmina Burana by Carl Orff will usher in spring for music lovers on March 27 at Benaroya Hall in a gala performance by the Kirkland Choral Society and three local music groups.

Orff begins and ends Carmina with the powerful “Oh, Fortuna,� a pulsating hymn to the Goddess of Fate. This strong opening grips both performers and audience, creating a shared rhythmic impulse that builds throughout the cantata to the dramatic return-to-thebeginning finale.

Thirteenth century wandering minstrels and defrocked clerics penned Carmina’s fanciful and bawdy lyrics. These minstrels sing again, seven hundred years later, in Orff ’s decidedly 20th century musical composition, depicting young girls delighting in innocent spring dance and song, building to men reveling in debauching drink and prurient pleasures.

The secular tone of the lyrics

Dooley’s Dog House threw a 20th birthday celebration for Phoebe, the resident store kitty, on Feb. 19.

When Phoebe came to Dooley’s six years ago for adoption from Purrfect Pals Cat Rescue Shelter, she had intestinal problems and had difficulty walking due to serious arthritis. When no adoptive family came forward for her, Chuck and Marti Bartlett, owners of Dooley’s Dog House decided to adopt Phoebe.

She quickly became the reigning queen of the store. After Phoebe was
