The Kirkland com-munity is making sure same-sex couples
will have an opportunity to have a wedding this Sunday, instead of simply going to City Hall.
Dec. 9 marks the � rst day marriage licenses, obtained by gay and lesbian couples on Dec. 6, will go into e� ect.
“We’re doing (this) be-cause we worked so hard for Ref. 74 that this is the natural extension,” said Rev. Marian Stewart of Northlake Unitar-ian Universalist Church.
� e church is o� ering group ceremonies at 2 p.m., 3 p.m. and 4 p.m. on Sunday. � e wedding package only
costs $25 but includes a champagne toast, cake, a reception with a DJ, two photographs and allows couples up to 20 guests.
Stewart thinks the church will reach maximum capac-ity and couples are still inquiring about the package less than one week before the event. But surprisingly many of the couples do not belong to Northlake Unitar-ian.
“� is is in no way a money maker,” Stewart said, who is a lesbian herself. “We are doing a service to the gay community, which has been historically marginalized and this is a service to say, ‘we welcome you and we’ll celebrate with you.’”
But the church is not the only Kirkland organization open to o� ering LGBT cou-ples an easy, yet meaningful, wedding.
VOWS Wedding and Event Planning, a Kirkland-based business, has part-nered with the Four Seasons Hotel in Seattle and will o� er a higher-end experience on Dec. 9-10 from 3-10 p.m. � e $1,000 wedding package includes a private ceremony with 20 guests, an o� ci-ant, music, photography and decor; and the shared ballroom reception will include a champagne toast and a wedding cake served at the couple’s private table with other food and drink available. � e Four Seasons
will provide a special rate for the couple’s hotel room with valet parking as well.
Katy Gri� ths, owner of VOWS, said it was impor-tant to her for same-sex couples to have a wedding that was more special than a courtroom “I do.”
“It’s a personal thing for me: my sister’s gay. We put a wedding on for her, and being a wedding planner, I felt robbed at the end of the wedding because she couldn’t sign the marriage license,” Gri� ths said of her sister’s wedding before Ref. 74 passed. “It was a frustrat-ing thing, (it) not being recognized by the state.”
About four couples have

Baskin-Robbins employee robbed at gunpoint
BY RAECHEL DAWSON
A Baskin-Robbins employ-ee claims he was terminated a� er requesting to have an extra employee by his side for night shi� s. � e request came a� er the ice cream shop was robbed on Nov. 28.
Kirk-land police responded at 7:20 p.m. when employee Jarred Alverio, 19, called 911. A white man with a white bandanna on his face entered the Rose Hill Baskin-Robbins on N.E. 85th
St., drew his gun and told Al-verio, who was decorating a cake, to give him the money. Police arrived within � ve minutes a� er the man, who wore a black hoodie, black leather jacket and blue jeans,
le� with $200.Alverio called
his manager to get the password for the secu-rity camera so that police could obtain
the video footage. Within 30 minutes,
the manager walked in the door.“She didn’t seem like
she was fully connected, but her husband did ask if I was okay,” Alverio said.

Montana man charged in 1996 murderBY RAECHEL DAWSON
A Montana man was charged Monday for the murder of a Kirkland woman that occurred in 1996.
Cli� ord Everell Reed faces second-degree murder charges a� er allegedly killing Sandi Rae Johnson, a former Kirkland resident, on April 26, 1996. King County detec-tives from the Cold Case Unit recently arrested the 59-year-old at his home in Victor, Mont. He is being held on $5 million bail and will be extra-dited to King County Jail.
Reed was a co-worker of Johnson’s during her disap-pearance, and according to charging documents, he le�
Washington shortly a� er she was reported missing. Detec-tives conducted multiple interviews throughout the investigation and friends of Reed revealed his alleged infatuation with Johnson.
“Reed told friends that Sandi was ‘a very special person,’ that they had an active sexual relationship and that they would eventually marry,” according to charging documents. “In reality, Sandi did not return his a� ections, denied any romantic relation-ship and told friends Reed needed to leave her alone.”
Reed had allegedly loaned Johnson $1,800 for a house payment and o� en spoke of wanting to � nd a steady job

Kirkland Reporter intern
Kirkland residents can now get their ca� eine � x and help
make the holiday season a cheerier one for the area’s less fortunate, with � e Sophia Way’s most recent campaign, “One For Sophia.”
� e non-pro� t agency, which works to end homelessness in East King County, opened its newest location in October. � e only sta� ed adult women shelter on the Eastside, Sophia’s Place is located at St. Luke’s Lutheran Church in Bellevue, and, along with the Eastside Winter Shelter, doubles the organization’s capacity to help. Providing services from subsidized
housing to a companionship program, � e Sophia Way helps single, adult women of all ages transition from homelessness to stable housing.
� e way the campaign works is simple. While ordering at a participating
café or restaurant, a patron can ask to “add one for So-phia.” � ey are then billed the according additional amount, but instead of receiving anything extra, the money is then donated di-rectly to � e Sophia
Way. It costs the establish-ment nothing, and provides the entire community with a convenient and informal way to contribute.
“Basically, it’s the ability for someone to help at a
price of a cup of co� ee or appetizer or meal,” says Greg Olson, who helped in the campaign’s design. Instead of attending galas that cost hundreds of dollars per ticket, the public can now “contribute however and wherever they want.”
“Homelessness is really a community problem,” Olson explained. “It’s expressed at the individual level, but in reality it’s much bigger than that. � is is why the ‘One For Sophia’ campaign gives the surrounding community a chance to contribute.”
And contribute they should, said Olsen.
“For every one woman served (by � e Sophia Way), there are 17 unserved. It’s an invisible problem until you start looking at it, and then it’s quite striking,” Olson said. “Most people
don’t know or realize King County is the county with the largest disparity of wealth in the entire nation. Within that, the fastest-growing homeless popula-tion is adult women over 50 on the Eastside.”
However, with the help of � e Sophia Way Executive Director Helen Leuzzi, that soon should change.
“She truly is making the world a better place,” Olson said. “Helen is very careful not to use the term home-less woman. � e reason she doesn’t is because it labels the woman. No one is born a homeless woman. What she uses in its place is women experiencing homelessness. Now, it’s more hopeful. Now, you can get out – with the help of � e Sophia Way.”
Participating establish-
ments include St. James’s Espresso and 212 On Central Bistro and Bar in Kirkland, Cici Café in Seattle, and � e Immor-tal Dog Bakery. A more comprehensive list will soon be available on � e Sophia Way’s website (www.
sophiaway.org), and emailed to those signed up to receive its newsletter. While the campaign is scheduled to go on through January, accord-ing to Olson, “We’ve had a couple of places say they’d like to continue on, and we have no reason to stop.”

so that he could support Johnson and her children if they ever ended up in a seri-ous relationship. However, the suspect denies having any romantic relationship with Johnson.
Reed’s friends said he allegedly had a history of referring to women as “sluts and gold diggers.” According to court documents, a close friend of Reed’s told police that he was likely responsible for Johnson’s disappearance and noted Reed was very bit-ter toward his ex-wives. His friend allegedly told police he said he divorced his second ex-wife “so he wouldn’t have to give her any money” and if she ever tried to get money from him, “he would kill her and she would disappear,” the documents continue.
Johnson, who was 28 at the time, was reported missing on April 27, 1996 by her sepa-rated husband Ken Johnson a� er she missed important family events.
Washington State Depart-ment of Transportation workers later discovered her body on Aug. 25, 2004 on eastbound Highway 410 in Pierce County. Her skeletal remains were identi� ed via dental records and an autopsy by Pierce County Medical Examiner Dr. John Howard revealed her death was by homicide.
On April 25, 1996, Johnson worked a double shi� at Bowen Scar� Ford in Kent as an administrative coordina-tor. She chose to work the extra hours so she could take the next day o� to prepare for her son’s 5th birthday, which included two parties. As a
result, Johnson arranged for her children to stay overnight with her babysitter.
Friday morning, she le� a message with her babysitter to pick up her then-2-year-old daughter and 5-year-old son later in the day so she could do some shopping. She also made plans with her friend to have lunch at Cucina Cucina in Bellevue. But she never showed up.
“(Her friend) drove to Sandi’s house in Kirkland and noted that her car wasn’t there and she didn’t answer the door. He continued to try to contact Sandi throughout the day but he never heard from her again,” the docu-ments continue.
A� er Johnson failed to pick up her children that night, and later missed her son’s � rst birthday party, her husband reported her missing.
� at weekend, employees of the � ri� way Market in Burien noticed Johnson’s green Ford Escort station wagon in the driveway and reported it. � e doors were unlocked, the key was in the ignition, her cell phone and papers were in plain view and the seat was all the way back, which “was unusual, consid-ering Johnson was petite,” the documents continue.
Reed lived 1.25 miles away from the store at the time of her disappearance.
� e next day, Johnson’s wallet was located on Rainier Avenue South at the Eagle Hardware store with a miss-ing license, but was identi� ed with other cards.
During the police investi-gation, Reed told detectives that he had ordered custom-made stools for Johnson’s
children, which would also act as a birthday gi� for her son. Johnson told police Sandi told him she was going to Reed’s that Friday morning to pick them up.
Reed’s apartment neigh-bors contacted police three days a� er the woman went missing and said they saw a vehicle that matched her car’s description, parked outside of Reed’s apartment on April 26, 1996 and also heard a woman’s voice, but saw Reed drive the vehicle in the direc-tion of the � ri� way shop alone. Reed claimed the car was “some guy’s” who met him for auto-work and said the car was a Subaru.
On May 1, court docu-ments say Reed’s neighbor received a call from Reed who asked him to tell police that he and Sandi were just friends and that he was kidding about their sexual relationship.
Reed’s roommate told the neighbors that he was at work that Friday but while he was gone Reed had vacuumed, cleaned out the vacuum cleaner and rented a carpet cleaner to clean the carpets.
“…� is was unusual since Reed had never cleaned the apartment in the years prior to that,” the charging docu-ments state. When detectives questioned Reed 16 years ago, he said he believed John-son could have committed suicide.
“� is case shows the true value of a cold case detective squad,” said King County Prosecutor Dan Satterberg in a news release. “� e families of victims of unsolved murders need to know that we will never give up seeking justice for them.”

Kirkland Nourishing Network gives food and thanks
On the Monday before � anksgiving, 64 boxes of food arrived at John Muir Elemen-tary (JME), a Title I school in the Kingsgate neighborhood of Kirkland. More than 50 percent of the students at John Muir are on free or reduced lunch, so for some of the children the four-day break from school is as much a hunger hardship as it is a holiday.
“� ere is o� en a lack of awareness of how many people are going hungry these days,” said Lynette Apley of the JME PTSA, “particularly in relatively a� uent communi-ties like Kirkland. It’s really important for us to address the need at John Muir.”
� e Kirkland Nourishing Network (KNN) changed this outlook for 20 families of need. KNN is one of � ve Nourishing Networks created to coalesce the com-munity to unleash untapped energy and resources to address hunger at a local level. � ese networks bring together all kinds of community stakeholders, including religious organizations, city council members, service groups, high school students, PTSA mem-bers, and concerned citizens to connect food resources to those in need.
A core tenet for Nourishing Networks is not to supplant the great work going on in nonpro� ts or in government programs today, but to � ll the gap between programs by connecting di� erent stakeholders in new ways to the perennial problems of hunger in our local community.
For this � anksgiving project, KNN worked with JME to approximate the number of families in need and determine the right grocery list to supplement for four days. Each box is designed to supplement the nutritional needs for a family of four for two days. KNN called out for volunteers in the community to deliver a box of grocer-ies to JME. � e 64 boxes were sponsored within � ve days of the request. Sponsors
included JME PTSA families, individuals, and a large contingent from the Rotary Club of Kirkland.
“It was exciting to bring a box to the school today,” said Rotarian Elizabeth Rus-nak. “� ere was a whole room full of boxes just waiting to be picked up by the families. It’s clear we’re really making a di� erence here in Kirkland.” For more information, contact [email protected] or go to nourishingnetworks.net.
4Culture awards funds to help preserve historic structures in annexed neighborhoods
� e City of Kirkland was one of three cit-ies that 4Culture recently awarded funds to so the cities can participate in King County’s Interlocal Historic Preservation Program.
Kirkland will receive $4,300 that will allow the city to team up with the Kirkland Heritage Society to survey the newly-annexed areas of Finn Hill, Kingsgate and North Juanita to look for pockets of older structures.
� e City of Auburn was also awarded $3,500 to help protect the Japanese Ameri-can Pioneer Cemetery, and Shoreline was awarded $6,000 to update a mid-1990s inventory.
With funding from a pilot program at 4Culture, these projects represent the � rst round of direct � nancial support to cities that participate in King County’s Interlocal Historic Preservation Program. Interlocal cities work in partnership with the King County’s Historic Preservation Program sta� and Landmarks Commission. � e challenge has been to � nd the resources at the local level to make progress on com-munity preservation issues, and that’s where 4Culture comes in.
Documenting aging buildings is a � rst step toward protecting them. � at means survey and inventory – a process that done right can engage volunteers and get people excited about their traditional older neigh-borhoods.

When I was a little girl, my younger sister and I wrote a letter to Santa Claus on Christmas Eve.
Handwritten in pencil, it said something like this:
“Dear Santa,Maybe it’s hard for you to
� nd us because our house is surrounded by trees where it’s dark and our parents leave the porch light o� at night. But we’re writing you because we want to send you our address
so you know how to � nd us this year.”Our letter included our address and our wish
list of toys that we asked Santa to bring us. We folded the letter, sealed it in an envelope and placed it on the windowsill in our bedroom. On Christmas morning, we saw the letter that was still there and hoped that Santa had read it.
We excitedly threw on some clothes, talked about what kind of toys we hoped Santa had brought us and ran downstairs to look for our presents. When we didn’t � nd a Christmas tree set up, we wondered if maybe Santa had just dropped o� the presents. I remember we looked in every corner of the house – including the porch. Noth-ing.
Of course, we didn’t understand at the time that we didn’t receive any presents because our parents didn’t celebrate the holiday for religious reasons.
But it saddens me to think that there are thou-sands of children right here in our community who may go without gi� s this year because their parents can’t a� ord them.
Last year, nearly 7,000 children received a new toy from one of Hopelink’s � ve holiday gi� rooms.
Demand is high again this year, but Hopelink o� cials say that shelves are nearly bare at some centers and toys are badly needed.
Donations can be dropped o� at any Hopelink Center through Friday, Dec. 14. Centers in Red-mond, Bellevue, Kirkland and Sno-Valley also are open limited hours on Saturday, Dec. 15 to accept donations.
Hopelink’s Kirkland/Northshore Center is located at 11011 120th N.E. and can be reached at 425-889-7880.
Toys and gi� s are needed for all ages – as well as warm clothes, sweatshirts and sports clothing. Items range from Fischer Price and Baby Einstein toys for tots, to Justin Bieber-themed dolls and cosmetics and Xbox games for teens.
Hopelink President and CEO Marilyn Mason-Plunkett said the holiday gi� rooms provide a few brief moments when kids are able to just be kids.
“O� entimes, the gi� a child receives through one of our gi� rooms is the only new toy they will be given all year,” she said.
“All of our Hopelink families are working hard every single day toward self-su� ciency, but many of them cannot a� ord to buy even the smallest toy or gi� for their children. Our gi� rooms provide a way for them to create their own special moments of joy for the children in their lives.”
Hopelink, the largest social services agency serving east and north King County, stocks the rooms with donations from local toy drives, corporate-sponsored giving trees, and individual contributions. � e gi� rooms are in their 18th year.
For center locations and hours, visit: tinyurl.com/d39bqeh or call Hopelink at 425-869-6000. A list of toy and gi� suggestions is available here: www.hope-link.org/Hopelink_Gi� _Guide-lines_2012.pdf
When you are out running holiday errands, please think about picking up a toy and donating it to Hopelink so that a child will wake up on Christ-mas morning and have a gi� to unwrap.
Nearly struck by inattentive drivers
I walk my 5-month-old daugh-ter in her stroller every day, and I was hoping you could help raise awareness for a problem we’ve been having. Several times now we have nearly been struck by drivers as we go through crosswalks (I’m very careful, and only walk with the light). Drivers making le� turns especially seem to be either inat-tentive, or impatient. � e � rst time it happened, we were jogging to hurry through the intersection, and the driver actually sped up to try and beat us. I had to stop dead in my tracks to keep from being hit. It happened again today, and what with the increasingly dark days and poor weather, I’m afraid we’ll keep having these close calls - or worse. If you could please remind drivers to be safe and always yield to pedestrians - or even get the lo-
cal police to step up enforcement, my baby girl and I would be very grateful.Melissa Hudson, Kirkland

Nourishing Networks helping those in need during school break
Kirkland’s Nourishing Network has tapped into Kirkland’s famous generosity to help some of those in need during this � anksgiving season. Plans are already underway for a similar e� ort during the long December school break.
Motivated by strong success augmenting the Summer Feeding Program, Nourishing Network volunteers organized support for some of the neediest families at a local elementary school over the � anksgiving break. About 1,500 pounds of food were recently deliv-ered to the school for distribution to the families.
� e strong response to an initial appeal to friends and acquain-tances of the volunteers preempted
the need for a broader community appeal for � anksgiving. More than 80 slots for large food boxes were subscribed in fewer than � ve days. � e Kirkland Rotary stepped up for more than one-third of the slots in very short order. � e Kirkland Fire� ghters’ Benevolent Association has stepped up to fund 40 boxes.
Nearing completion of their � rst year, Kirkland Nourishing Network is acting to identify gaps in food security and developing short-term � xes while working on long-term solutions. � e network is coordi-nating with other local organiza-tions to ensure that support is spread as broadly as possible and not being duplicated.
Nourishing Networks is plan-ning a similar, but much larger e� ort in Kirkland for the long December school break. For infor-mation, visit nourishingnetworks.net/kirklandDave Asher, Kirkland Councilman

The blotter feature is both a descrip-tion of a small selection of police incidents and a statistical round-up of all calls to the Kirkland Police Department that are dispatched to on-duty police o� cers. The Kirkland Reporter Police Blotter is not intended to be representative of all police calls originating in Kirkland, which average about 1,000 per week.
Between Nov. 26-29 the Kirkland Police Department reported 255 traf-� c violations (two DUIs), six school zone tra� c violations, 16 alarm calls,
four noise complaints, two calls of disturbance, 12 thefts, eight car prowls, four car thefts, 22 acts of traffic abandonment, two animal calls, one call of civil disturbance, one reported burglary, four domestic violence calls, two malicious mischief reports, one juvenile report, one rob-bery, six calls for harassment, one report of illegal drugs, four acts of fraud and three reported suicides. At least 10 people were
arrested.
Nov. 29Malicious mischief:
12:01 a.m., 14413 123rd Ln. N.E. A 44-year-old was arrested after her 18-year-old son reported that she threw a box of his
DVD’s into the dump-ster, causing water
damage and making them non-functional.
Order violation: 11:04 p.m., 12427 N.E. 124th St.
Police arrested a 35-year-old man after they witnessed the man and
a 36-year-old woman walking from behind a Jiffy Lube at night. The man
had a Seattle warrant for assault and a no-contact order between the woman he was walking with. The woman also had a warrant but because her three children were home alone, the warrant was not confirmed.
Nov. 27Warrant: 6:52 a.m., 5515 108th Ave. N.E. A 16-year-old girl was arrested on a felony warrant.
Nov. 26Order violation: 1:34 a.m., 14164 73rd Pl. N.E. a 23-year-old man was taken into custody for violating a no-contact order of domestic violence with his 25-year-old male roommate at their shared residence.
Obstruction: 8:50 a.m., 7525 132nd
Ave. N.E. A 58-year-old man was ar-rested and taken to the Sobering Center in Seattle after police responded to a report of an unwanted person at a tent city, known as Camp Unity. Officers arrived and found the man lying across the entrance driveway, intoxicated and defiant. He refused to accept assistance from the pastor of Lake Washington United Methodist Church or the home-less outreach advocate who was sum-moned to the scene. The pastor of the church eventually stated he wanted the man trespassed. After the man again refused to get up off the driveway, he was ultimately arrested for obstruction.
Order violation: 8 a.m., 12931 N.E. 101st Pl. A 19-year-old man violated his no contact order by calling his parents six times over the weekend.

NORCOM uses a so� ware program called Community Telephone Emergency Noti� cation System, sometimes called Reverse 9-1-1, to send urgent messages to selected phone numbers based on the geographic location of a resident’s phone carrier bill-ing address.
� e system allows for a city-wide noti� cation or can target speci� c phone numbers in a designated area. Phone numbers (excluding unlisted numbers) are sup-plied by phone companies and updated annually. If you have an unlisted phone num-ber, you can register at www.norcom.org.
� is system has the potential to reach thousands of phone numbers within a fairly short period of time. � e Kirkland Police Depart-ment has activated the system as a means to reach residents in cases where the public needs to be noti� ed imme-diately of a situation or their help is needed urgently.
A noti� cation may be sent – even during inconvenient hours – to help � nd a missing adult or child who may have a serious health condition or is in serious danger. In the event of a major disaster and the phone system is working, important public safety mes-sages can be sent out via this system that could advise resi-dents of most damaged areas and evacuation information.
� is system was utilized recently in an e� ort to get the public’s help in locating a missing elderly male who su� ered from dementia. With the temperatures dropping, the system was activated so that every tool available to the police department was utilized. � e gentleman was safely returned later that evening.
� e system pushes out a pre-recorded message giving emergency instructions to whoever receives the mes-sage. All outbound recorded messages will be brief and to the point. A message will be from 30 to 60 seconds in length and will begin with the statement: “� is is the Kirkland Police Department with a recorded message.” All outbound messages will include a phone number for residents to call if they have questions about the message or information to provide.

signed up for the package, but it is open to about 10. Gri� ths notes out of the four, one mother made a great gesture when she bought the package for her son and his partner.
Gina Rayburn’s son Jordan has been with his partner for four years and they have wanted to get married for a long time.
“� ey called me when the law passed and asked me and dad to be witnesses for a marriage license,” said Rayburn, of Carnation. “But then I found out about Katy’s package and thought it would be so cool to have a real wedding. � is is a really big deal.”
When Rayburn gi� ed the package to the couple, they were understandably very happy. Rayburn thinks the wedding package is a great concept for couples who have waited a long time for Ref. 74 to pass.
But same-sex couples need not rush into marriage for a good deal. Kirkland-based GuGuLy Event Planning is o� ering 74 per-cent o� a “mini GuGu wedding planning package” that can be used between Jan. 10 to March 31. � e package is usually priced at $1,200 but one gay or lesbian couple
could win the package for $312, which provides � ve hours of service to consult on budget planning, vendor management and con� rmation, rehearsal and scheduling.
GuGuLy event planner Lydia Rapidah-Johnson will pick one couple based on a 100-word email to [email protected], detailing why that couple deserves the discount.
“I’m really glad Ref. 74 passed. I think it’s about love. It’s about two people and how they want to (live) their lives and move forward,” Rapidah-Johnson said.
� e Heathman Hotel in Kirkland will o� er a Right to Unite rate for same-sex couples looking to celebrate their � rst night as a married couple.
� e Right to Unite rates include 15 per-cent o� the best available one-night stay or 20 percent o� a two-night stay. A bottle of Domaine Chateau Ste. Michelle sparkling wine and a bed with rose petals sprinkled on top will be o� ered with the rates on Friday, Saturday and Sunday through June 30, 2013.
“We believe all couples should be able to enjoy a romantic getaway with their special someone and wanted to be part of this historic celebration,” said Heathman general manager Troy Longwith.

� e Top Shelf Broiler opened last Friday at the location of the former Greek restaurant Olive You.
It took one week for owner Melony Halenbeck’s contrac-tor to physically reinvent the interior, but Halenbeck’s number one goal was to reinvent the atmosphere by warming the place up and making people comfortable.
“I want to make sure everyone’s getting the service they need,” Halenbeck said.
She hopes that by employ-ing high energy, experienced sta� who wear a smile, she can accomplish this goal.
Aside from good service, Top Shelf Broiler will slowly begin to accumulate old photos of Kirkland and its residents from back in the day.
“I would love it if people could donate pictures of fam-
ily and friends (from Kirk-land),” she said. “I’d just like to give a little bit of Kirkland back to Kirkland.”
Halenbeck, who is from Mountlake Terrace, says she chose to put her restaurant in Kirkland because of its small-town feel.
“Last year, they closed o� the streets (for an event) and it reminded me of when I was a kid. (� e city) feels safe. It’s big but it still feels small,” Halenbeck recalls.
On the night of the Kirk-land Christmas tree lighting, sta� at Top Shelf Broiler handed out 1,000 samples of their baked tru� e macaroni and cheese. She says eight di� erent tables were � lled a� er customers tasted the samples. And one table with six customers all ordered the macaroni.
� e $65,000 remodel transformed the old interior to a modern dining area that brings elements of a summer
terrace indoors.Halenbeck explains that
restaurants with outside din-ing in downtown Kirkland are o� en packed full in the summer because people enjoy that atmosphere.
Although Top Shelf Broiler just opened, they have al-ready donated Pine and Pesto Chicken Satay to Merrill Gar-dens’ Kirkland Association for those who volunteered during the tree lighting.
� is past Wednesday the restaurant participated in the Kirkland Dishcrawl, where local critics were able to try their food and write reviews. A trio dish of dungeness crab cakes with avocado relish and balsamic reduction dressing, black tru� e maca-roni and cheese and prawns con� t- a jumbo prawn on two tomatoes with garlic ba-sil chicken broth was o� ered during the Dishcrawl.
Halenbeck will eventually change Tervelli’s Ultralounge to TS Lounge as a way to connect the two.
More information
Top Shelf Broiler is located at 89 Kirkland Avenue. For information or to donate Kirkland photos, call 425-298-0474.
Top Shelf Broiler brings small-town vibe to Kirkland
Melony Halenbeck, owner of the new Top Shelf Broiler in downtown Kirkland, hopes to accumulate more old photographs of Kirkland to hang in the restaurant to give the place a small-town feel. The restaurant opened last Friday on Kirkland Avenue. RAECHEL DAWSON, Kirkland Reporter

Acumatica adds U.S. headquarters in Kirkland
Acumatica, a leading global provider of cloud Enterprise Resource Plan-ning (ERP) and � nancial so� ware, expanded its U.S. presence by opening an o� ce headquarters in Kirkland on Dec. 3.
“Our plans for 2013 include doubling our growth in the areas of channel partner sales, pre-sales consulting, partner training, ISV development, and professional services,” said Yury Larichev, COO of Acumatica. “Relocating to the Seattle area is a logical
next step, where there is a wealth of innovative and talented individuals with whom we’d like to partner as we continue that growth.”
“By making this move now, we’ll be in closer proximity to high quality ERP marketing and channel resources throughout the Seattle IT community. Being in Washington will also en-able us to develop stronger channel partner support on the West Coast. We’re also looking forward to closer ties and support with Mi-croso� , since Acumatica is an ISV Preferred Partner for Windows Azure, Microso� ’s cloud platform,” added Larichev.
“Acumatica has a huge global market opportu-nity,” said Larichev. “Unlike traditional ERP solutions, Acumatica empowers orga-nizations with unparalleled adaptability, from choice of
deployment, to licensing, to integration and customiza-tion choices. Customers who use Acumatica can work from anywhere, on any device, at any time, while saving money on deployment and ongoing operational costs. Unlike SaaS-only solutions or lega-cy ERP products, Acumatica allows customers to securely control the location of their data, the timing of upgrades, and the ability to scale their ongoing so� ware invest-ments,” added Larichev.
While the company’s U.S. headquarters is now in Kirk-land, Acumatica’s so� ware engineering team remains in Moscow, Russia, where they will also continue their fast growth, said Larichev. � e Kirkland o� ce is located at 4030 Lake Washington Blvd. N.E., Suite 100.

Kirkland � re� ghters extricated an elderly woman trapped in her vehicle a� er her car went o� the road and into the woods on Wednes-day night.
Fire� ghters responded to the one-car accident around 8 or 9 p.m. � ey found the woman trapped in her ve-
hicle just o� the east side of the 11400 block of 98th Ave. N.E. in the Juanita neighbor-hood. Her vehicle drove well o� the road into the woods.
“She was conscious when I got there,” said Battalion Chief Mike Haschak.
However, the woman needed to be extricated and was taken to Evergreen-Health in a paramedic unit. Fire� ghters did not need to
use the Jaws of Life, but did need to use machetes and chainsaws to make a path to get to her.
“� is person’s in their 70s so we don’t really know what caused her to go o� the road,” said Haschak. “Was it a medical problem or did she fall asleep at the wheel or was there alcohol involved?”
He says her non-life threatening injuries are from
the accident itself. It took the team approxi-
mately 20 minutes to get her out. A ladder truck, a � re engine, an aid unit, a medic, the battalion and a medical services o� cer responded to the scene.
Disclosure: � e victim in this report is a relative of a Kirkland Reporter sta� member.

But Alverio recalls the first thing she said to him was: “Oh, you need to put the cake back in the refrigerator.”
“It seemed she was being more considerate of the cake than what was going on,” Alverio said.
Alverio didn’t work Thursday, but knowing that he had to work at 3 p.m. Friday, he called his manager to discuss his work schedule. And in a voicemail he asked to have a coworker with him during his evening/night shifts. He was alone the night of the robbery.
“Since that happened, I am physically and men-tally not able to work in that environment. I was by myself,” said Alverio.
When the manager called him back, he says she told him she would be unable to accommo-date his request because “it’s wintertime and it’s the slow season for an ice cream shop.” It was non-
negotiable to move his shifts to daytime.
“She said ‘thank you for your time, thank you for working with me. Your last day was yester-day and you can come in Monday to get your last paycheck. Bring in your uniform,’” Alverio said, noting that he only re-quested to have an extra employee with him and it wasn’t a demand. “I was very puzzled… She didn’t care.”
Ironically, Alverio had received his six-month raise last month.
“That’s really sad that a small business can’t ac-commodate such a small request like that,” said Alverio’s uncle, Pedro Heredia. “This kid is the kind of kid that makes up shifts for other employ-ees. He works as many hours as he can and then they go and shut him down like this.”
Heredia said Alverio commutes an hour-and-a-half to Seattle back and forth, in addition to go-ing to college. Sometimes Alverio gets off work as late as 11 p.m.
But when the Reporter contacted the manager, Jinny Hong, she said that she wants Alverio to work and he is not fired if he will work the night shifts. She says since Alverio is over 18 years old, she hired him specifically to work night shifts.
“I really want to work with him but problem is he doesn’t want to work nighttime shift,” Hong said. “I’m going to do what he wants to do.”
Hong attributes the issue to miscommunica-tion because she is not fluent in English. She
says she is troubled by who will fill tomorrow’s night shift.
The same Baskin-Robbins has been robbed before - a couple of years ago, according to Alver-io. And Lt. Mike Murray with Kirkland Police has confirmed the suspect in the recent robbery also matches the description of a suspect in his mid-20s who robbed a Texaco gas station down the street on Oct. 27.
“Similar description, close to the same area, same type of motive,” Murray said.
“I don’t think I’d take the job back. If I were to have that job back, I’d have the night shift by myself and knowing that something like that could happen… It’s not safe.”

Here are just a few tips to set yourself and your little ones up for a less-stressed
visit to any relative’s or friend’s home.
Talk with your child about
who you are visiting and what the rules will be at their home. Set boundaries. For
example, “do not take or touch things without asking � rst.”
• If your child is shy, remind them that if they get nervous they can always come � nd you or show them a quiet area of the house that they can hang out in. If your child tends to get overstimulated, you can come up with a plan with them about what steps they can take to calm down and what consequences will be if they become out of control.
• As soon as possible aft er arrival, take a house tour with the hosts. Ask them what the rules are about this and that and relay those rules to your child as you walk around.
• Show them where the bathroom is as well as how to turn on the lights. Many older homes have bathroom light switches outside of the bath-
room, which could end up in a frustrat-ing mess when a child cannot � nd the light to be able to see the toilet! Also, remind yourself to stay on routine with pottying with your little ones. It is very
easy for us all to get caught up in the excitement of family and presents and realize too late that you forgot to remind your child to go potty.
• If staying overnight, show your children where they will be sleeping and where their belongings will be.
• Bring foods and snacks along that you know your child will eat. Of course we want them to try the food served, but have back-ups. I cringe thinking about the pig jello and sauerkraut that I would fi nd in my grandmother’s refrigerator as a child!
• Especially if the rela-tives have no children of their own, bring some toys, books, and movies to keep them busy and their blanket or stu� ed animal that will help get them cozy when it’s time to go to bed.
Have a happy, low-stress holiday and enjoy your children; they won’t be small much longer.

One out of every five Americans over the age of 65
has been victimized by a financial scheme, accord-ing to the Investor Protec-tion Trust. If you have elderly parents, how can
you help them avoid being “scammed”?
For starters, observe their behavior. Be aware if their actions or statements indicate that they might be vulnerable to financial fraud.
Next, urge them to send any suspicious emails straight to their “spam” basket. Remind them that any offer that sounds too good to be true won’t be good — or true.
Also, encourage them to further their financial education. Many agen-cies provide programs designed specifically for seniors.
Finally, if they don’t already work with a finan-cial advisor, recommend a
trusted one to them. The more guidance they get from a qualified profes-
sional, the less likely it is that they’ll fall victim to scam artists.

CommunityBRIEFSCity of Kirkland to receive $1.4 million in federal funds for aging Forbes Creek bridge
Seventy city and county projects across the state will receive a portion of $130 million in federal funds to repair or replace aging bridges.
The City of Kirkland will receive $1.4 million for work on the Forbes Creek bridge at 98th Ave. N.E.
The Washington State Department of Transporta-tion selected projects that will replace, remove and/or repair aging, obsolete and structurally deficient bridges. The funding comes from the Federal Highway Fund.
“Some of these bridges are beyond the point of repair and need to be replaced,” said Kathleen Davis, director of Highways and Local Programs with WSDOT. “Many of them, though, can be repaired, which will add many more years of operation to their lifespan.”
WSDOT and the Bridge Replacement Advisory Committee received and reviewed 87 applications.
The committee is comprised of bridge and engineering professionals, with three members each from Washington cities and counties.
The committee’s primary objective is to enhance traveler safety through replacement and reha-bilitation of old, worn-out bridges owned by cities and counties.

Juanita basketball program holds annual Hoop Retreat for lady Rebels
� e Juanita girls bas-ketball program held their annual Hoop Retreat for all lady Rebels from 4th Grade to varsity on Nov. 17 at the Juanita High Fieldhouse.
� e varsity and junior varsity players each "ad-opted" one to three of the younger select players and mentored them throughout the day. � e event started o� with the younger select players in the stands where they were able to watch head coach Sam Lee and his sta� run an intensive one-hour practice of the varsity and junior varsity players.
� ey were able to grasp the idea of a "program" being a group of teams all building towards the same goal by emphasizing the things the coach of the top team teaches. During lunch, the varsity and junior varsity players sat the girls down in a team circle and shared their wisdom from being in the program them-selves since 5th grade. � ey talked about being a good teammate, about the "fam-ily" of Lady Rebel Hoops and how they are all sisters as a result of their desire to excel at hoops.
� ere were stories of bad grades that kept some of them o� -track and how
they were able to get their grades back in place by leaning on their "Hoop Sisters" who excelled in those subjects and letting them tutor them back to A's and B's. � ere were honest talks about the athletic, educational and time com-mitment that has to be made to play at their level. � ere were some young eyes opened at the tales of struggle and success from the older players.
More team building drills
were given by varsity assis-tant coach Krystal Robinson and junior varsity coach Jay Gahan who had a fun lineup drill that showed some new things about the other players in the squads. � ere were also full-court scrimmages that showed how talented and aggressive this year's edition of Juanita Lady Hoops is.
� e Juanita Select organi-zation, run by Sam Adams, handed out new sweatshirts, T-Shirts, socks and new
Baden red/white/blue balls with each select player's name embossed on them.
It was a terri� c day for the sisterhood of the gym at Juanita. From select 4th graders to seniors on varsity there was a feeling of pride from all for every player in the program, for the select organizations leadership, and for Lee and his sta� .
Bumblebees soccer team wins league championship
� e Bumblebees, a U10 girls soccer team in the Lake Washington Youth Soc-cer Association (LWYSA), recently won their league championship a� er going 15-0 in the season.
� e Bees completed an undefeated season going 8-0 in league play and 7-0 in a playo� run, capped o� with a 6-0 victory against the Purple Dragons on Nov. 10.
� e Bees are a team of 10 girls from Keller, Frost and Muir elementary schools, coached by Chris Burke.
Bassline Fitness in Kirkland to o� er free classes for open house
Downtown Kirkland welcomes a fresh approach to group exercise with the opening of Bassline Fitness, a 4,200-square-foot � tness studio o� ering two di� erent workouts that are challenging and fun.
Taking up two storefronts at the intersection of Central Way and Lake Street, Bassline Fitness o� ers an exclusive and entertaining music-driven workout and a smaller class featuring instructor-led high-intensity interval training. Free classes will be o� ered during an Open House Dec. 13-15; advance reservations may be made by calling 425-739-4444.
A custom sound system and two 180-inch video screens � anking the stage are featured in the main studio where the MashUp class is the starring attrac-tion. A creation of founder Dave Fox, the MashUp class o� ers 40 Spinning® bikes, 12 non-motorized Woodway treadmills, 10 Krankcycles® and two rowers.
“We had standing-room-only crowds for this class when we o� ered it at our last club,” Fox noted. “� is sound system will thump. Each sub woofer weighs 83 pounds
and there are three of them. � is sound system will be the best system in a group � tness room I’ve ever seen ... by far.“
Fox and his wife Angela are bringing their exercise prowess to Kirkland from Charleston, S.C. where they owned and operated two health clubs and two yoga studios. Fox has owned and operated � tness clubs across the U.S. since 1995, includ-ing three Gorilla Sports locations in San Francisco. Angela, a former professional model and mom of three, is a certi� ed Spinning and Barre instructor.
Interval resistance train-ing is the focus of Lean425, located in the adjacent space. Based on a popular high intensity interval training program, Lean425 alternates cardio work on Woodway treadmills with weight train-ing. Each day is a full body workout with emphasis on di� erent muscle groups. Together MashUp and Lean425 provide � exibility in a workout routine along with the social bene� ts of group � tness.
Bassline Fitness classes are taught by experienced � tness instructors. Childcare is available in the Bassline Kids Cottage. Pricing is variable with a drop-in class at $12 and a monthly membership at $80.

Rep. Cyrus Habib of the 48th District, lost his eyesight to cancer at age eight. He’s never let it keep him from success. � is November, Habib becomes the � rst Ira-nian American elected to the Washington Legislature.
When Habib was in the third grade, he can remember the teachers scolding him for trying to climb the jungle gym at school. One night he told his mom about the incident. Habib’s mom was a lawyer and understood the risks, but was upset her son couldn’t participate in certain playground activities. � e next day, she promised to sign any waivers or liability forms allowing her son to play alongside the other kids.
“I can deal with a broken arm,” she told his teachers. “I can’t deal with a broken spirit.”
� e � rst-time politician, a Democrat, defeated Red-mond City Council member Hank Myers, a Republican, and will represent parts of Bellevue, Kirkland, Red-mond, Medina, Clyde Hill
and the Points communities.Habib is a lawyer, but has
always been involved with service work. He volunteers as a trustee of the Bellevue College Foundation and is a human services commission-er for the city of Bellevue.
� ough he studied literature at Oxford and law at Yale, Habib had his hand in politics from a young age. He worked as an intern for U.S. Sen. Maria Cantwell and later interned under U.S. Sen. Hilary Clinton.
“What an accessible politi-cal climate we have here,” said Habib of entering politics in Washington state. “� ere’s a real receptiveness to new ideas and new people. I felt like I could come here, and early on, be e� ective.”
Habib battled cancer three times in his life. He � nds it important to share his disability and life story with constituents, but doesn’t want it to overshadow his quali� ca-tions, or reasons for repre-senting the 48th District.
“� at’s not how I’m run-ning and that’s not how I want to be thought of,” he said. “But I do think it’s im-portant to tell my life story…
As voters and constituents it’s helpful to understand my biography because it shows what’s important to me.”
A graduate of the Bellevue public schools, he � nds fund-ing education to be one of the most critical issues facing the state this budgetary cycle. Doorbelling during his cam-paign reinforced that need.
“When I talked about the a� ordability of college and education, it really resonated with people. I think a lot of people sense and feel that public universities are not delivering the promise of an a� ordable education for middle-class Americans. [Talking to my constituents] really solidi� ed my desire to � ght for education funding.”
Habib now uses adaptive so� ware that reads what is on his computer screen. It allows him to respond to emails from constituents. But his own experience at the Bellevue International School, he believes, paved the way for much of his success. When the school couldn’t accommodate him in math and science classes because of his disability, Bellevue Col-lege opened its doors to him,
and gave him his � rst taste of higher education.
“What all those institutions are, is a re� ection of our val-ues,” says Habib. “� ey were built and funded by taxpay-ers and their elected o� cials who believed that hard work, plus opportunity, can equal success. � ese were the op-
portunities created for me.”Campaigning for the 48th
District has le� him exhila-rated, he says. Even today, he � nds landmarks from his early years — the Barnes and Noble where he studied for his SAT, and a Kirkland shop-ping center where he hadn’t been since he was a teenager.
“� is was always home for me,” says Habib of returning to serve the 48th District. “Bellevue was really the eco-system in which I overcame some very di� cult obstacles, to go on and achieve great things today. I always saw myself coming back to this place.”
Habib draws on life experience to serve constituents
Rep. Cyrus Habib of the 48th District, lost his eyesight at the age of eight to a rare form of childhood cancer. Communicating his disability to constituents was at � rst di� cult for the � rst-time politician, but he believes it has taught him resilience . CONTRIBUTED
