When Sammamish resi-dent Robin Rodney put � sh scraps in her yard
waste container, she wasn’t expect-ing it to take nearly three weeks before they got picked up.
“It’s getting stinky,” the Timberline resi-dent said.
Waste Management drivers, who serve the north half of Sammamish, ended their strike Aug. 1 a� er reaching an agreement. How-ever, that doesn’t mean everything is back to normal.
Waste Management picked up garbage in Sammamish on its regular schedule last week, but recycling and yard waste were delayed.
Rodney said the company told her it wouldn’t be picked up until Aug. 16 — meaning it will be three weeks since her yard waste was picked up and a month since recycling.
� e kicker — she said Waste Management told her that she will still have to pay for the service she did not receive. � e reason lies in an old contract then unincorporated King County had with Waste Management.
According to City Administrative Services Director Mike Sauerwein, when Sammamish became incorporated in 1999 it took on the old contracts the county had with both Waste Management and Allied Waste, which serves the southern part of the city.
He said state regulation requires a city give 10 years notice that it will seek bids from an-other company. Sammamish gave its notice to both Waste Management and Allied Waste in 2006, which means the contracts will run through 2016.
Sauerwein said he has heard several com-plaints about Waste Management’s recent service.
“Our citizens have every right to be upset,” he said. “It’s not the level of service they’ve come to expect from living in the city of Sammamish or a level of service the city is happy with.”
Sauerwein said when the city seeks bids
in 2016, it will look for the best options to protect its citizens, but for now, the current contract must be honored.
“It’s a private company so there’s not a whole lot we can do,” he said.
Waste Management didn’t return calls about the Sammamish situation.
“I feel bad about the strike and everything, but a month is ridiculous,” Rodney said. “At least give us a credit. It’s just not fair.”

For the � rst time in 20 years a Democrat, Mark Mullet, won the Fi� h District senatorial primary.
� e results from Tuesday’s election have shown how com-petitive the race is for the state, where Democrats are � ghting to keep control of the senate.
� e state is in political � ux this year, Mullet said. “I don’t think anyone thought the Democrats could win.”
Brad To� , who was 6 per-centage points behind Mullet, wouldn’t comment on the primary results Wednesday, saying he believed when all the votes were tallied, they’d show he was even more competitive.
Before the primary, the Sen-ate Republicans sent out � iers framing Mullet as an irre-sponsible Wall Street currency trader. In return, Democrats mailed � iers highlighting To� ’s unsavory court dealings.
“I think from our side, we haven’t done anything but tell the truth,” Mullet said. “I’m sleeping very well at night.”
In Washington, primaries narrow down political races to two candidates. In races where there are only two � led, it gives a clear picture of how voters are leaning.
Independent Ryan Dean Burkett, who didn’t mount an active campaign, still managed to earn 5 percent of the vote in the Fi� h District for the sec-ond representative position.
It’s a sign that voters are fed up with partisan politics, said

Kindergarten Roundup
Issaquah’s newest students got a test ride on Issaquah school buses Aug. 8. � e annual program helps students and especially parents, grow more comfortable with the district transportation department.
It’s also a chance to teach the kids safety rules, before the � rst day of class, said Jo Porter, the transportation director.
As a part of the tour, the couple hundred new students got to ride through the bus wash. Pictured to the le� , brothers Garrett and Brendan Sourwine watching the auto-matic brushes pass by their window.

Hundreds of Sammamish citizens joined in the fun of Safe and Sound Sammamish Tuesday night — part of the annual Nation-al Night Out.
Free hot dogs, performances by Portland-based Circus Cascadia and an appearance by the King County Sheriff ’s Office helicop-ter Guardian One highlighted the evening focused on police-community partnership and crime prevention awareness.
“It’s growing every year,” organizer Dawn Sanders said. “We try to have good a lot of things for the kids. I think what they like most is crawling through the trucks and seeing the police officers and the fire trucks.”
Issaquah also held its own Night Out event outside of City Hall.
Approximately 1,200 neighbors across Western Washington participated.

Tuesday’s Primary election looks to be a preview of what voters here can expect in November – in-cumbents returning to offi ce in the 8th Congres-
sional District and the 41st and 45th legislative districts.All the incumbents have, or should have, the needed
50+ percent of the votes However, that shouldn’t lessen voters’ interest; it is
a presidential election year, which would bring people out in droves. A number of state issues also should provide a big motivation to vote.
As for the Primary, the race for Congress in the 8th District looks essentially decided. Republican Dave Reichert got 48 percent of the vote, signifi cantly more than Republican Karen Porterfi eld’s 32 percent. How-ever, if he picks up the votes from two other Republi-cans, which is likely, he’ll have more than enough for reelection.
Incumbents also seem to be unbeatable in the 41st and 45th legislative districts. And the contests in the 5th District also look to be shoe-ins.
In the 41st, incumbent Steve Litzow has 57 percent of the vote in the race for state Senate. In the House, Marcie Maxwell received 56 percent of the vote for Position 1. In Position 2, Judy Clibborn was unchallenged. Unless Lit-zow or Maxwell do something to turn off their supporters, they will be back in Olympia in January.
In the 45th District, Democrat Roger Goodman has 48 percent of vote for Position 1 compared with Repub-lican Joel Hussey’s 44 percent. That looks close, but the third candidate, Democrat Jacob Bond, got 7 percent. Goodman should reap those votes in the General elec-tion.
For Position 2, Democrat Larry Springer has 55 per-cent of the vote. As with Litzow and Maxwell, Springer should have a lock on reelection.
In the 5th District, Mark Mullet has a fi nal victory in hand with 53 percent of the vote for state Senate over Brad Toft. For House Position 1, Chad Magendanz has 52+ percent of the vote to David Spring’s 42 percent. That also should mean victory in November. In Position 2, Jay Rodne was unchallenged.

The numbers are staggering. The Center for Disease Control
and Prevention says that 1 in 88 children will be born with some form of Autism Spectrum Disorder.
That’s up from 1 in 150 a decade ago.
ASD, considered the fastest growing develop-ment disability in the United States, is char-acterized by diffi culties with social interaction, verbal and nonverbal communication and repetitive behaviors.
Children who display these symptoms are often misunderstood by others as having behavioral or mental problems, while, in fact, that’s not the case at all. Most have exceptional creative skills, they simply have different ways of expressing themselves.
The possibilities are endless for autistic children, but it doesn’t mean it’s an easy road for families affected.
Fortunately, those in Washington look-ing for inspiration don’t have to go far.
I recently had the pleasure of meeting Sammamish residents Caspian Banki and his mom, Lynne. The pair are the motiva-tion and organizer, respectively, behind Autism Day WA, which runs from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., this Saturday at Jubilee Farm in Carnation.
Diagnosed with autism at age 3, Cas-pian, displayed all the common signs. He would repeat phrases over and over, he became frightened easily and he would throw intense tantrums.
The pair relentlessly went to daily therapy sessions, but as a form of escape, Lynne started taking Caspian to Jubilee
Farm. It was there she started to notice Caspian truly blossoming. He could be himself and nobody judged him. On top of that, the farm provided great educational opportunities.
Lynne knew she had to share the experi-ence with others. A quick talk with farm owners Erick and Wendy Haakenson and Autism Day WA was born. What started at just 40 families in 2001, grew to 370 fami-lies in 2011 and is expected to be around 400 families, or 1,600 people, this year.
The free event features endless activi-ties for autistic children, classes, special-ized food booths, information centers and more. It is truly a sanctuary for autistic children, adults and families.
When I met Caspian, now 18, he looked me in the eye, shook my hand and confi -dently answered questions about getting ready to head off to Colorado for college. A truly impressive young man.
I might not have known Caspian as a child, but I can imagine how far he’s come, and it provides great hope.
My nephew, Taylor, also was diagnosed with autism around the same age. He is now 6, the same age Caspian was when Lynne started Autism Day.
I know fi rsthand it’s not an easy trek for families, but it’s comforting to know there is an event like this out there.
Thank you Caspian and Lynne for pro-viding hope for so many.

ACE LEAVING HURTS MANY
� e Sammamish Ace Hardware will close next year. Ace’s e� orts to relocate to the Sammamish Town Center failed.
Ace located a suitable piece of land, had the full support of landowners in the area, and between landowners and Ace, ap-proximately $95,000 was spent on plan development. However, due to a lack of support and � exibility from the city, extremely costly fees, onerous regulations, and a not all together dis-guised desire to see nothing happen in the town center, plans to move to the town center hit a brick wall.
� is outcome re� ects the reality of the town center plan and regulations. Past and present city council members do not want a town center. � ey only want civic services.
Meanwhile, town center landowners have seen their properties taken by the city. Citizens are forced to leave the plateau for basic services, and the city’s long term sustainability is un-dermined.
John Galvin, Sammamish
A COSTLY LUNCHDuring the summer, a
few people take their lunch to the boat launch at Lake Sammamish State Park. � ey are taking a little break from their o� ce to enjoy the nice grass and a view of the lake.
I was reading a magazine and a park ranger came over and said there was a $10 fee to sit on the grass.
I can understand the fee for people to launch their boats, but to spend 30 minutes to have a sandwich?� at is ridicu-lous.
� e property at the boat launch was gi� ed years ago to the state from an Is-saquah family for free.
� e taxes in Washington state are driving business and people out of the state. I pay $7,000 yearly in prop-erty taxes. What’s the next tax, the air we breathe?

What’s the one thing people who have had joint-replacement surgery say? “I wish I’d done it sooner.” That’s because it didn’t take long to get back to doing things they’d given up due to the pain.
If you’ve put part of your life on hold, then come to a free surgeon-led seminar at Swedish — where our surgeons do literally thousands of joint-replacement surgeries every year. Swedish surgeons were also the first in this area to perform MAKOplasty®, robotic-assisted surgery for partial knee joint replacement.

The following informa-tion was compiled from the City of Sammamish police reports:
Sammamish police broke up a house party July 31 containing approximately 200 teenagers in a “normal-sized” house in the 2700 block of 232nd Avenue Southeast.
The organizer, whose parents were out of state, reportedly locked her younger siblings, 14 and 10, in her parent’s bedroom while the party was taking place. Neighbors expressed concern because one of the siblings had Multiple Sclerosis and is severely dis-abled. Both children were safe and healthy.
Police contacted the par-ents and warned them of letting their daughter throw parties of this magnitude when other children are in the home. The report was forwarded to Child Protec-tive Services.
BB GUn aCCidenTSammamish police
responded to a call of a 9-year-old accidentally shooting a 4-year-old in the eye with a BB gun July 31.
Upon arrival, emergency responders told police the boy was shot in the left eye and they believed the BB might still be in the socket.
The boy who shot the gun said he was shooting his Red Rider BB gun out on the porch on a home in the 2100 block of Southeast 35th Place when the other boy walked outside and he accidentally hit him in the eye. The boy was transport-ed to Children’s Hospital by his parents who declined an ambulance.
GOOdBYe BiRdieA Sammamish woman
called police July 31 after her neighbor allegedly flipped her off and gave a menacing look.
When police arrived they told the woman that the man’s actions weren’t criminal. She said that she just wanted the information documented as they have had numerous problems in the past.
When police asked the man if he made the gesture to the woman, he smiled and said, “They are the reason we had to sell our house and move, so yes, I may have waved at her.”
Police warned the man that some people could see it as threatening. He was recep-tive and said that it was the last day in there house in the 3400 block of East Lake Sammamish Shore Lane Northeast, and he hoped this would all be behind them soon.
FaiLed TiRe THeFTSammamish police were
called Aug. 2 after a man took a tire off a vehicle and attempted to put it on his own car.
The man, who said he occasionally crashed at the home in the 1700 block of 211 Way North-east, told police that he had permission to take the tires off the vehicle. However, the wheel didn’t fit on the man’s car as the “lug nuts were all wrong.” When police contacted the owner of the vehicle he said the man did not have permission. Because the tire was still at the house and it had no damage, the owner agreed to let the man replace the tire and go on his way.
UnLOCked dOORA man called police
Aug. 1 after someone stole a briefcase, an iPad and passports from the back of his vehicle.
The man said he must have left his vehicle un-locked the previous night in the 1500 block of 220th Place Northeast. He feared that some of the sensitive information in the briefcase would be used for identity theft, including his son’s passports and other tax documents.
dRUG THeFTA homeowner called po-
lice July 30 after discovering someone entered his home and stole several prescrip-tion drugs including oxy-codone and hydrocondone.
The thieves appeared to enter the home in the 21600 block of Northeast Way through a rear sliding glass door that was left open.
PeddLeR deniedSammamish police trans-
ported a man to Redmond on July 30 after he failed to display a proper peddler’s license.
When police approached
the man, he said he knew why they were there and that he had a license with the city, but he left it in his vehicle. The man could not identify the name of his boss or company and was told that next time he needed to have a license or a future violations could result in an arrest.
STRanGe CaLLA woman called police
Aug. 1 days after receiving a call from a post office employee from a private cell phone after normal post office hours. The woman, who was returning from vacationing in Arizona, told police she had been in contact with the post office a lot because she was hav-ing her mail forwarded to her. The call “creeped” her out because she felt the em-ployee was checking to see if she’d be home anytime soon for personal reasons.
The caller admitted it might have been nothing but wanted police to be aware in case they could relate any burglaries to calls from the post office regard-ing mail stoppage.
MiSSinG TUBeA resident along Lake
Sammamish called police Aug. 1 after their large two-person inner tube went missing overnight.
The tube was tied up on the beach area next to the house dock.
The caller believed someone who frequents the “community dock” just south of the location took the tube after dark. It was not known if the tube was taken, or drifted from its resting place.
SHaTTeRed GLaSSA rear window of a car
was reported shattered Aug. 1 after a man parked the vehicle in a different area because of resurfacing in his complex in the 22700 block of Northeast 4th Street.
Nothing was taken from the vehicle. It appears it was just an act of vandalism.
aLaRM SOUndedA home burglar alarm
thwarted an attempted theft Aug. 1 in Sammamish.
Neighbors called police when they heard the alarm in the 2900 block of 224th Place Southeast. Upon arrival officers found a shat-tered window with rocks near the ground.
The Kittitas County Sheriff ’s Office reported that an Issaquah man died Sat-urday night after falling 40-50 feet down a rock cliff and landing in shallow water at Lake Kachess, west of Cle Elum.
Glenn Williams, 51, stopped in a remote area at Exit 62 off Interstate 90 to look at the view with his wife and daugh-ter, according to a news release.
Rescue services responded to the call at about 9:20 p.m. Saturday.
The Sheriff ’s Office said a private boat transported Williams to shore where he was pronounced dead.
The cause of the fall and his death are still under investigation. Alcohol appeared to have been a factor in the incident, the release said.

Eastside woman combines giving, saving on daily deal
BY JOSH [email protected]
Few things are better than a great deal, but Jilli Victorio may have found one.
Victorio, a mother of one and Eastside resident, has been part of the team bringing a new daily deal website with a twist to the Greater Seattle area.
Similar to Living Social and Groupon, Sharing Spree (www.sharingspree.com) provides discounted prices on dining, entertainment and lifestyle but with one major feature that sets it apart – 10-20 percent of every deal goes to bene-� t a local foundation or non-pro� t.
“I really like the concept of giv-ing back to local schools and char-ities,” Victorio said. “I’ve enjoyed it and really found my niche.”
Deals range from discounted dining and resort packages to can-vas prints and even home goods. Along with giving consumers an opportunity to save on an everyday item or so� en a large purchase with a percentage o� the top, Sharing Spree has donated more than $338,000 to non-pro� ts in its Austin, Birmingham, Dallas, Nashville, Portland markets, as well as its newest e� ort in Seattle.
Victorio said with the vast number of small businesses and corporate outlets looking to grab a market share on the Eastside along with its close proximity to Seattle, Sharing Spree believed the time was right for coming back to the Northwest for the Portland-based company.
“We will be doing anything from family dining to travel,” Victorio said. “In addition to the splurges and deals that moms already love.”

With the economy spiraling downward and a signi� cant raise on the table, Tom Arnold took a gamble few would consider.
He quit.“I’ve been really lucky,”
said the Issaquah resident, noting his recent career move was inspired while re� ecting on his mother’s kindness. “She’s constantly doing all this volunteer stu� and it really started hitting me that I do nothing to give back.”
� ree years ago, Arnold, who was in his early 40s, walked away from a big-money promotion doing analytics at Microso� to start PetHub — an Internet-based company that uses Quick Response Codes, or QR Codes, to quickly and safely return lost pets to their owners.
“I thought to myself, I need to do � nd some-thing I’m passionate about and marry them,” he said. “So� ware is what I’m doing and animals are what I care about.”
A� er a series of trials, tribulations and testing, Arnold o� cially launched PetHub.com in September 2011.
In less than a year of operation, the nine-person company, located in a small house on Issaquah’s Front Street, has more than 30,000 pets around the nation registered on its website, has gained multiple industry
awards and will soon be the o� cial pet tag of the 2012 Hero Dog Awards — an event broadcast live, Oct. 6, on the Hallmark Channel.
Arnold attributes PetHub’s quick success to his prod-uct’s ease of use.
All pet tags or collars feature visible QR Codes that are linked to online
pet pro� les. When some-one uses their smartphone to scan the code, they are immediately linked to the PetHub website. Good samaritans can view the pet’s pro� le, which can include phone numbers, addresses, shot records, dietary needs, insurance information and much more. Information
depends on what the pet owner wants displayed. For those without smartphones, there is an 1-800 number on the tags that can link the caller to the owner through a third party.
“A lot of times that will happen where people won’t even know there pet’s miss-ing before they get the call from our pet center or get the email from the person who found them,” said Lorien Clemens, who works in consumer outreach.
PetHub already boasts hundreds of success stories, like those of Chewy the dog from Utah. A double es-capee, Chewy most recently

worked his way under a fence and was hit by a car. The man who hit Chewy scanned the code and called the toll free number on the tag. The owner was contacted within minutes and Chewy was immedi-ately taken to the animal hospital where he was treated for broken leg.
As a bonus, the owner had PetHub’s gold service, which includes insur-ance. A potential $3,000 bill was reduced to a $50 premium.
Arnold admits his tags aren’t a substitute for mi-crochips, but he said they provide an extra peace of mind. When animals are microchipped, Arnold said, many people forget to update their addresses, or even register the de-vices.
“It’s staggering that nearly four million animals are put to death because they can’t find the original owners,” Arnold said. “If we can get them home before it’s necessary to get them into a shelter … then we want to help.”
PetHub offers three dif-ferent levels of service, the
first of which falls under the “free-mium” model. The bronze package, which is used by 67 per-cent of subscribers, doesn’t cost anything and includes data storage, ability to link to the pet tag and access to 800 number service.
The silver package includes all the bronze services, but also sends an email notification to owners when a profile is viewed, provides GPS information when a pet tag is scanned and sends out a pet version of an Amber Alert to all nearby shelters. That costs $39 a year for an entire house-hold of pets.
The gold package includes all the features of the other two, plus pet insurance for $49 a year.
While his new endeavor might not be as lucrative as what he might have experienced at Microsoft, Arnold hasn’t doubted his decision for a second.
“You got through this life one time, as far as I know,” he said. “It would be nice to feel like I’m making a difference.”

Chad Magendanz, the Republican opponent who lead that race with 52 percent of the vote. Democrat David Spring brought in 43 percent.
Spring may have benefited from his easy-to-remember name, which he changed from David Clark Beaton in 1996, said Magendanz, who is currently the Issaquah School District board president.
At one point Magendanz gave out Haagen Dazs ice cream bars, a brand that rhymes with his name, to anyone who could properly pro-nounce his last name.
On a federal level, incumbent Dave Reichert (R ) held strong in the Eighth Congressional District holding 48 percent of the votes, against five other candidates.
Karen Porterfield rose above the remaining candidates with 32 percent of the vote. The Democrat is running on her history of volun-teerism and her work with low-in-come housing for seniors. She also works part time as an instructor at
Seattle University, teaching public administration.
“If we want to see change happen-ing in D.C., we have to change the people we’re sending, and this is where it starts,” she said.
The district was redrawn this year to be the first that jumped across
the Cascade Mountains and into historically conservative cities. The move is expected to strengthen the district for Republicans this year.

The top two candidates will move on to the general election Novem-ber 6, 2012. The numbers are by percent of votes counted Aug. 8.

Lucille Barnard and her friends just want a chance to play.
Members of the Robin-swood Tennis Club Super Senior team, the group re-cently captured the United States Tennis Association sectional championship in Sunriver, Ore. to earn a spot at the national competition in April, 2013.
But after that, the path for Barnard and other Super Seniors comes to an end.
The USTA recently announced changes for its adult leagues that will include abandoning the title “Super Seniors” and shifting the minimum age for the Senior category from 60 to 55. While local leagues and sections may still offer Super Senior league cham-pionships, the USTA said no National Champion-ship is currently scheduled beyond 2013 for players 60 and over.
“These women are very competitive,” Barnard said. “We’re there to play hard and win.”
Barnard hasn’t always been a dedicated player, picking up the game after college and getting her start with a $3 wooden racket. But it didn’t take long for
her natural inclination for the game to arise. It only increased after she relo-cated to the West Coast and said Robinswood has finally provided an outlet that incorporates friendship and tennis.
“The competitiveness is so much fun and the physi-cal aspect is great,” she said. “It keeps me healthy and it doesn’t get any better than that.”
Barnard added that the team will make sure its voice is heard by the USTA, and is planning to craft letters to make their feelings on the changes known.
But for now, the team is
focused solely on 2013 and a chance to enjoy another trip to Nationals, even if it may be their last.
“We’ve all become friends,” Barnard said. “The plane rides, sharing the camaraderie, we make it about more than just tennis.”
Members of the Rob-
inswood Super Senior women’s tennis team: Lucy Zapf (Sammamish), Joan Zintak (Sammamish), Lucille Barnard (Sam-mamish), Linda Mate (Bellevue), Susie Pochop (Bellevue), Suzanne Dodd (Bellevue), Marcia Skewis (Bellevue), Geri Aslin and Lois Mustonen.

Issaquah grad wins silver in LondonJennie Reed, an Issaquah High School grad
competing in her third Olympics, helped the United States to a Silver Medal in the women’s track
cycling competition at the London Olympics.
A 15-time world champion who now resides in Califor-nia, Reed and the Americans finished behind the hosts from Great Britain.
Reed finished 10th in the sprints of the 2004 Athens. She spent the next four years racing at the U.S. Nationals, and vari-ous World Cup events, post-
ing top three finishes in many of the events. She finished seventh in the same event during the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
Reed called her performance in China disap-pointing and then took a year off.
Eastside FC third at u17 nationals Eastside FC B94 red, a team comprised of play-

A 4-1 win over the Region III champs from Texas kept Eastside FC’s title hopes alive to open the tournament, before a loss to the eventual cham-pions from Illinois and another win over a squad from Arizona.

Lakeside senior Legion wins state Lakeside Baseball Club went 5-0 and defeated
the Kennewick Bandits twice during that stretch to capture the championship at the Washington State Senior Legion baseball tournament in Selah.
The 18U squad from Lakeside (32-12) opened its run with a 7-5 win over the Spokane Bandits before taking the first of two games with Kennewick 17-5. Wins over a squad from Centralia and the Twin City Titans put Lakeside into the title game for a rematch with Kennewick. Another victory, this time 8-5, gave Lakeside the trophy and ensured its spot in the regional tournament in Billings, Mont. on August 9.
Coach Rob Reese’s team will meet the champions of Wyoming in the first round with a spot in the American Legion World Series the ultimate prize of the tournament.

Six new musicals will be brought to life this weekend as part of Village � e-atre’s 12th Annual Village Originals Festival of New Musicals.
Recognized nationally for it’s focus on developing new musicals, the festival serves to launch a handful of developing musicals into the musical landscape. Previous successes from the festival include “Next to Normal” (previous title “Feeling Electric”) and “Million Dol-lar Quartet” - both of which had their start at the Festival of New Musicals and went on to win multiple Tony Awards and a Pulitzer Prize (Next to Normal).
Other musicals that got their start at the Festival and went on to Village � eatre’s Main stage season include “Iron Curtain,” “It Shoulda Been You,” “Anne of Green Gables,” “Chasing Nicolette” and “� e Gypsy King.”
� is year, the festival features � ve new musicals in reading format — fully sung with script in hand performed at the Francis J. Gaudette � eatre. � e sixth musical, “Lizzie Borden,” - which returns to the festival a� er being featured
as a read-only last year - will have three showings open to the public in a workshop format at First Stage � eatre.
Created by David Cheslik-deMeyer, Tim Maner and Alan Stevens Hewitt, rock and roll musical “Lizzie
Borden” has been in devel-opment - in some form or another - since the 90s.
Following the story of the infamous axe murder, “Lizzie Borden” plays with the idea that Borden was a “rock star” of her time,
garnering fame, fortune and a loyal following for a crime of which she was acquitted. � e new musical is part his-torical re-telling, part rock concert - and lots of fun.
Cheslik-deMeyer said the idea of creating rock and roll around the tale was some-thing that came from his love of female rockstars like Anne and Nancy Wilson of Heart and Joan Jett.
“� e story seemed to par-allel rock and roll mythol-ogy,” Cheslik-deMeyer said.
And while Borden’s story takes the idea of “rebelling against your parents” to a whole new level, Cheslik-deMeyer felt it was a � tting way to tell the story.
� e stripped down show focuses on the four central characters involved with the murder of Borden’s par-ents: Lizzie, her older sister Emma, their neighbor Alice and the Irish maid.
While the plot remains true to the Victorian time period, Cheslik-deMeyer says there is a de� nite rock and roll edge to the aes-thetic. Speaking to the dark nature of the Borden legend, many of the songs featured in the musical use language from historical documents. But it’s not all blood and guts, as Cheslik-deMeyer ensures the musical has its fair share of comedy, too.
� e production, which stars Carrie Manolakos, Bil-lie Wildrick, Carrie Cimma and Jessica Low, also fea-tures a six piece rock band - and a catchy rock score.

� e King County Library System is considering spending $300,000 to buy a new, smaller bookmobile that won’t require drivers to have a commercial drivers license.
Library sta� had been driving the Library2Go bus for a few years before it discovered that Washington had changed its laws what size vehicles need a commercial license. It was the only vehicle sidelined.
It would cost thousands each year to pay for the com-mercial license, said Nancy Smith, director of outreach services. “We didn’t really want to get into that business.”
� e system hasn’t o� cially decided on the new book bus. It likely would be discussed for next year’s budget. In the interim, the library system has been juggling its
other vans to � ll in the service gaps.Most of KCLS’s libraries on wheels are used for early
literacy. � ey stop by daycares to encourage kids to check out books. � e library system also has a number of computer lab trucks, which o� er traveling computer classes.

A SeaTac woman accused of breaking into five Issaquah and Sammamish area homes was also was charged with selling her loot behind the Issaquah police sta-tion.
Jackie Jean Johnston, 46, was charged residential burglary and first degree traf-ficking of stolen property Aug. 6.
Two neighbors say the saw the woman leaving through the window of their neighbor’s home holding a brown bag. It was later found that the homeowners had lost jewelry and computers worth about $12,000, according to the court docu-ments.
The witnesses saw the woman walk to her white truck, which was parked in a known hideout for illegal activity on a Sycamore Creek Lane cul-de-sac.
Issaquah Police Department detectives looked through all reports from the area to see if something with the truck’s descrip-tion came up, when they found Johnston’s plate number. The witnesses then picked her picture from a photo montage, accord-ing to the documents.
Before the arrest, a man purchased a laptop from Johnston for $100 near the ballfield restrooms behind Issaquah City Hall July 27.
The man then took the computer to the police station, where he told officers that
he believed it had been stolen. Detectives used the serial number to discover it was missing from a Sammamish burglary. The witness also pointed out her face from a montage.
Detectives investigating a third burglary also found a $2,500 guitar on a police data-base. It had reportedly been stolen Aug. 6. They got her name from the shop owners, according to the documents.
They arrested her at the Issaquah Park and Ride and seized her truck, where police later found about $11,000 in stolen goods.
‘grandson scam’ returnsA Sammamish resident reported
Aug. 7 receiving a phone call consistent with “Grandson Scam” calls the police department has seen the past.
The man received a call from some-one who sounded like his grandson and said he was in trouble in Argentina and need bail money. Another person came on the line and said he was Chris Jen-kins with the U.S. Embassy in Argentina. He instructed the man to send $250,000 via Western Union in Argentina, payable to his grandson (he used the grandson’s correct name). Our resident continued to ask “Jenkins” for a phone number to call him back and he hung up.
The man did not fall for the scam. Police warn others to be on the lookout for similar calls.

Bellevue will spend $4.5 million to install “intelli-gent” tra� c lights in various parts of town. � e system will allow tra� c engineers to collect data in real time – and then adjust how long lights stay red or green. � e proj-ect, which began in 2009, already has such “smart” tra� c lights at 69 intersections. When complete, a total of 184 will be upgraded.
A Bellevue startup has created O� erUp, which lets people sell items on the Internet with the smart phone. Owner Mich Huzar developed the idea to cut down the number of steps necessary to put items on Craigslist. � e O� erUp app allows users to take photos of items they want to sell and buyers can view and purchase them in-stantly. � e serviceis availabler for the iPhone and online. An app for Android will be created in the near future.
The Redmond City Council has extended its mora-torium on medical marijuana collective gardens by another six months. Late last year, the council approved the � rst six-month moratorium to give city sta� time to study the state law concerning collective gardens and the impacts they could have on the community before recommending any type of regulations. In November, state residents will vote on a measure to legalize marijuana for recreational use. � e council hopes the outcome will provide some clarity.
The City of Renton will develop the Renton Aero-space Training Center at its airport where Renton Techni-cal College will train much-needed aerospace workers. � e center would train 120 students per quarter, with a sta� of four faculty members and would o� er Aerospace Manufacturing Assembly Mechanic certi� cate training, � e college established the program in 2011 to train as-sembly mechanics.
It’s not carmageddon, but it is the biggest construction weekend Puget Sound has seen this summer. Driv-ers should plan and be prepared for total road closures in Renton, Seattle, Bellevue, Lake Stevens and Clearview in Snohomish County. � e weekend mantra is: leave early then add an hour.
“We’ve packed a lot of construc-tion into one weekend,” said Lorena Eng, Washington State Department of Transportation regional administra-tor. “Drivers should plan alternate routes.”
Closures• Th e State Route 520 fl oating
bridge and all connected ramps will be closed between Montlake Boule-vard in Seattle and Interstate 405 in Bellevue from 11 p.m. Friday, Aug. 10, to 5 a.m. Monday, Aug. 13, while crews demolish the old Bellevue Way Northeast overpass and dig a 25-foot-deep trench to install a culvert beneath all lanes of the highway.
• State Route 167 will be closed be-tween I-405 and South 180th Street/Southwest 43rd Street from 7:30 p.m. Friday, Aug. 10, to 4:30 a.m. Monday, Aug. 13, while crews dig a 35-foot-deep trench to install a new culvert beneath the highway.
• State Route 9 between State Route 542 and 180 Street SE in Clearview will be closed from 9 p.m. Friday, Aug. 10, to 2 a.m. Sunday, Aug. 12, to install a culvert. � e detour route is eight miles long and will add 15 minutes or more to the trip.
•Th e intersection of State Route 92 and SR 9 will be closed from 10 p.m. Friday, Aug. 10, to 7:30 a.m. Sunday, Aug. 12, for paving.
• Th e city of Seattle will close the southbound I-5 off -ramp at 85th
Street from 10 p.m. Friday, Aug. 10, to 5 a.m. Monday, Aug. 27, to pave 85th Street.
“Summer construction is tough to schedule, especially this type of work,” said Eng.
With SR 167 closed in Renton, SR 520 closed across the lake, and SR 9 closed in Clearview, parallel routes like I-5, the West Valley High-way, I-90 and State Route 527 (in Snohomish County) will be much busier.
Be prepared: Construction to close major roads this weekend
