Already the mother of two premature babies, Tricia Berstch knew what developmen-tal delays looked like. But her newborn son, Calvin, was struggling with something more.

It wasn’t just the hole in his heart, sleep apnea or eyes so crossed he’s needed two sur-geries. He slept so long she could hardly wake him to eat, and his acid re� ux was so severe he needed feeding therapy.

Calvin would turn two, before doctors would discover he had Mitochondrial disease (Mito). His cells don’t produce enough energy, o� en sending him into metabolic crisis.

In a few hours he can go from a happy 4-year-old running around a park to a cata-tonic state with a 104-degree fever. To help the Lakemont family with his medical care, which has put them in � nancial hardship, friends are hosting a Fun Run in Issaquah on Aug. 26.

Although regular hospital stays were a part of Calvin’s life from the beginning, it took a crisis to discover the disease.

To help with Calvin’s sleep apnea, surgeons removed his tonsils and adenoids. Normally kids wake up within an hour of the procedure, it took Calvin a couple days. Too weak to even

eat, he remained in the hospital three weeks. By then the toddler’s walking turned to crawl-ing. His few words became a babble. Two years of therapy were lost.

“I was begging desperately for someone to help us,” Tricia recalled.

It was then Calvin had a muscle biopsy to test for Mito. � e results were an utter heart-break.

� ere is only a 20 percent chance that he’ll live past his teen years. � e older he gets, the more problems he could get, but it hasn’t got-

ten in the way of Calvin’s joy for life.In the family home, giggles bounce o� the

second-� oor ceiling as Calvin and his older siblings tickle each other until they squeal.

� e energy of their laughter drowns their parent’s hushes, and only another activity tempts them to skip from the bedroom.

Today is a good day, or at least a good a� er-noon. With Calvin, good days aren’t expected, only remembered.

� e City of Issaquah has done away with its ‘90s retro style logo this month, as an overall e� ort to rebrand the city as it rebuilds its website.

Pulling the old logo onto a projector – two of Issaquah’s A’s are blacked out to to form moutains and a third moun-tain, composed of horizontal

stacked lines, is formed between them – Issaquah Mayor Ava Frisinger told Issaquah’s city council, “It was de� nitely time to update our design.”

� e new logo features a salmon and plenty of curves. � e single logo will replace over a dozen various de-signs adopted by di� erent departments.

� e mayor formed a com-mittee and chose the � nal de-sign from a group of di� erent ideas, which were drawn by a graphic designer.

� e green and grey duotone logo emphasized the city’s commitment to the environ-ment, and it’s also cheaper to print with only two colors, Frisinger said.

� e salmon was the most important aspect of the design. If the logo is shrunk down considerably, the salmon is still clearly seen, Frisnger said.

� e city will only buy up new stationary as it runs out. � e logo will hit the Web with the city’s new site.

Hope Against the OddsIssaquah fun run to benefit boy who takes each day as a gift

Four-year-old Calvin Berstch,

right, was diagnosed with Mitochondrial

Disease, a rare illness

that takes 80 percent of

patients before they leave their

teenage years. He’s pictured

By KEVIN ENDEJANkendejAn@issAquAhreporter.com

Tucked away in a small wooded neighbor-hood above Evan’s Creek Preserve sits one of Sammamish’s hidden gems.

And that’s just fine with homeowners Rick and Donna Cooke.

“For me it’s more sharing with friends and family,” said Donna, who has been contacted several times to show her garden on tours.

The Cookes first started working on their half-acre garden after buying their home in 1991 — when it was nothing but a barren piece of property.

“Our real estate lady didn’t want to show it to us,” said Rick, noting the space used to just be a rocky terrain covered in field grass.

The Cookes saw something else.“I think for both of us it was like an empty

easel — like a piece of art waiting to happen,”

Donna said.Now, with its bright colors and strong

fragrances the garden is an awakening to the senses. It features approximately 400 different kinds of plants, including rhododendrons, lilacs, peonies, a burning bush, a magnolia tree and hundreds of other species.

Several of the garden’s 70 rose bushes were passed down from Donna’s grand-mother to her mother.

“I’ve got some emotional ties, which kind of seems silly with plants, but every time I look at (the flowers), I think about them,” Donna said.

The backyard also features a native plant garden and an area that has several edible plants, including tomatoes, rhubarb and strawberries.

In addition to the foliage, the garden has several cobblestone walkways and raised railroad tie planters — a part of the project Rick won’t soon forget.

He still recalls the exact amount (287 bags of 80 pound concrete) he stirred and hauled down the hill in a wheelbarrow.

While building the planters, he had bunches of railroad ties brought in at a time.

“Most people go down with a pickup truck and need one or two, I was buying them and having them delivered in bundles of 30,” he said.

The project required 10 to 12-hour work-days on the weekends. The couple, who are now retired Boeing project managers, also devoted a couple of hours of work every day after their jobs before finally finishing the

project in 1998. “It was definitely a partnership, all the

way,” Donna said.The garden now requires about four

hours of maintenance a day, three or four days a week.

It’s still a significant amount of time, but a sacrifice the Cookes are willing to make as they get to relax every night on their back deck. It’s also a favorite place to share with their five children and 13 grandchildren.

While Donna hasn’t opted to join the gar-den tour circuit yet, she doesn’t completely keep her garden to herself. She has gifted flowers to several weddings and funerals and creates a bouquet of flowers once a week for the local Starbucks.

She is also more than willing to show the garden to anyone who asks to see it.

“I love to share with people who love flowers,” she said. “That’s really what it’s all about.”

Donna and Rick Cooke stand in their garden, which features over 400 different types of plants. kevin endejan, Issaquah & Sammamish Reporter

For Felix Hernandez for pitching a perfect game for the Mariners on Aug. 15. It’s one of the rarest feats in sports. Hernandez has had a love a� air

with this area ever since joining the team years ago. Based on the fan’s cheers at that game and his next one, the feeling is mutual. He’s known as King Felix for a reason.

For U.S. Rep. Todd Akin, the Missouri congress-man who is running for the U.S. Senate. Akin commented that women’s bodies automatically

protect them from impregnation a� er “legitimate rape.” How does how person get to be a candidate for U.S. Senate and still be so ignorant or uninformed?

For our own candidate for U.S. Senate, Mi-chael Baumgartner, who � red o� an email to a journalist that contained an “F-bomb.” He later

apologized, saying the comment was meant to be part of a personal email. We’re pretty sure the journalist took the comments personally.

For presidential campaigns that stick local police agencies with high costs to provide security. President Obama’s latest fundraising foray to

the Seattle area cost the Bellevue Police Department $28,817 in overtime to provide about 60 o� cers to secure the Hilton Bellevue Hotel where Obama spent the night. � e Bellevue Fire Department paid more than $12,000 in overtime to have about a dozen medics and hazardous-material experts standing by. In all, lo-cal law-enforcement agencies spent about $100,000 on security. We’re all for protecting the president, but there should be a way to compensate cities out of the millions raising for reelection.

I’ll be the � rst to admit I’m a passionate person. I’m passionate about writing: I’m pretty sure I wrote

my � rst story in Kindergarten – it was about my mom’s red van, and it was awesome.

I’m passionate about reading: I read the � nal book in the Harry Potter series in 17 hours. Fact: I took no breaks, there were lots of energy drinks involved and I may have cried. Several times.

I’m passionate about music: I’ve been to more concerts than I can even re-member – and have been known to skip a meal (or two) to a� ord that coveted ticket.

Frankly, it’s my job to be in tune – lo-cally, nationally, internationally, in the

Twittersphere. I’m a journalist. As a professional, this is a good thing. But as a regular

person, I might be a creep.� e daughter of Mrs. 21 Questions, herself, I’ve spent

most of my life asking away: Who? What? When? Where?

Why? It’s just second nature. Which is why jumping in to this industry just made since.

But in recent months, I’ve realized that what I consider “passionate ventures,” others might consider “weird.”

So what if I know how many Twitter followers What-sHisFace has. And who cares that I know when and where that one local musician is playing next week. And maybe, just maybe, I know every word to every one of their songs.

Is that creepy? I think it’s just part of the job. Having said this, I’ve had my fair share of being in

situations where I’ve known a bit too much (thank you, Facebook). And I’ve been in even more situations where I know way too much (thank you, Twitter).

So maybe I’m creep? Nah. “I’m a journalist.”

It’s my job, I swear

COLA MISUNDERSTOODA recent letter writer commented

about Cost of Living Adjustments (COLA) being implemented for the City of Sammamish. � e writer erro-neously claims many details that just

are not facts.Cost of Living Adjustments do

nothing other than ensure you salary keeps pace with in� ation. To not have COLA raises means that a person who gets no raises will actually earn less and less each year.

As to his belief that COLA will put “highly compensated” workers above the industry standard is completely

and utterly bogus. Anyone knows if you stay at your company for � ve years or longer and get only COLA level raises (2-3 percent) you will in-deed fall behind the current salary for your position. Again, COLA means you make the same adjusted for the increases in the cost of living. You are merely keeping pace.

‘Pit Bulls on Parade’ returns to Issaquah

Discover the procedure that can make even the mosttroubled smile clear and beautiful – in just one day!*

EmpoweredEating her favorite foods, free to travel and live the life she wants. Not afraid to laugh or get close to the ones she loves. Many peers have missing or failing teeth, some even have dentures. How does she do it?

Odds Against UsVirtually every adult will lose a tooth in their lifetime. For many, the suffering doesn’t stop there. As we age, factors ranging from poor oral health to heredity often bring about accelerated tooth loss – so much so that the average American will lose 4 or more teeth by the time they reach 50 years of age.

Traditional Remedies Historically, alternatives to failing teeth often involved a lifetime of glues, creams and adhesives and often were accompanied by discomfort and changes in appearance – meaning the options for treating missing or failing teeth could do little to alleviate the physical and emotional discomfort of tooth loss.

Dental ImplantsDental Implants are now considered a “Standard of Care” when replacing missing teeth and are often a better treatment option than conventional dental crowns, bridges, partial and full dentures. Dental Implants have been proven to be a more successful long term option when compared to these more traditional approaches. The appeal of dental implants is very simple: implants look and perform like natural teeth and fi t precisely without the need for adhesives. They are permanent and cared for just like natural teeth and restore one’s natural smile.

ClearChoice Dental Implant CentersBefore ClearChoice, getting implants could take over a year and involve endless visits to multiple providers. Our state-of-the-art facilities bring everything together under one roof. The doctors, technicians and cutting edge technology needed for a fast, convenient result can all be found in one place. That is how ClearChoice can deliver beautiful smiles in just one day.*

Your Satisfaction Is Important To UsClearChoice Dental Implant Centers provide comprehensive implant treatment professionally and affordably. That’s why an independent survey of thousands of patients showed they would overwhelmingly recommend ClearChoice to others†. At ClearChoice, we work to ensure that no one leaves until they are happy with their smile.

So Did She or Didn’t She?Almost anyone that has lost multiple teeth or even a single tooth is a strong candidate for dental implants. So next time you see someone over 50 with a beautiful, radiant smile ask yourself … is she lucky or did she make the ClearChoice?

Is Her Beautiful Smile Good Genes, Or Does She Have A Secret?A smile so natural, only her dentist knows for sure.

Consider this:MYTH: Tooth loss affects a relatively small group of people.

FACT: By the age of 50, the average American is missing 4 or more teeth.

MYTH: Tooth loss is almost always a result of poor oral hygiene.

FACT: Oral hygiene is important, but genetics and age are signifi cant drivers of tooth loss.

MYTH: Dental problems caused by gum disease and tooth loss resolve themselves quickly.

FACT: Most dental problems do not “self-resolve” and usually become worse with time.

MYTH: Dentures are the only option for those dealing with tooth loss.

FACT: Dental implants look and feel like your natural teeth and are a modern alternative to dentures.

Comprehensive Women’s HealthcareAre you experiencing:

• Fatigue• Moodiness• Hot flashes• Sleep problems• Weight gain

• Headaches• Night sweats• Low sex drive • Rapid aging• Hair thinning/loss

Q & A with the DoctorsNaturopathic physicians Naomi Bryant, Tammy McInnis and Jill Monster founded the NaturoMedica clinic in Sammamish almost five years ago.

Q. What kind of healthcare do you offer for women?

Dr. Bryant-We actually provide healthcare for men, women and children, but the majority of our patients are women. For women, we offer a full range of primary care, including annual gynecological exams.

Dr. Monster-We practice integrated medicine. We combine the best conventional and natural therapies to design a plan that is right for each patient. We like to say that the best medicine is the medicine that works for each individual. This can mean anything from diet and lifestyle changes, to vitamins and supplements, to pharmaceutical medications.

Q. What kinds of specialized care do you offer for women?

Dr. Bryant-We treat all types of medical conditions, but we find that women have many health complaints related to hormonal imbalances.

From puberty through menopause and beyond, women experience hormonal shifts which are at the root of many health concerns. In addition to the “female” hormones estrogen and progesterone, women may experience symptoms associated with imbalances of the other hormones including thyroid, cortisol and testosterone. It is no wonder women have a large number of health concerns that are hormone related! We are well versed in choosing the hormone testing and treatment that is right for each patient’s circumstance. Therapies for hormonal imbalances can include diet and lifestyle interventions, and supplements or prescriptions. For women who are interested in hormone replacement therapy, we have experience in prescribing bio-identical hormones.

Dr McInnis-We also see many women for digestive issues, such as Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). Food allergies seem to be another area of interest for many patients. It is probably worth mentioning that many

women feel great most of the time and just want to make sure that they are doing all of the right things to stay healthy. A large part of our practice is dedicated to preventive healthcare. It is a really exciting time in medicine. For example, there is state-of-the art testing that looks at a patient’s individual vitamin and nutrient levels, so that a patient can make decisions about which vitamins and supplements to take based upon personal blood chemistry.

Q. What makes healthcare at NaturoMedica different from other healthcare?

Dr. McInnis- In addition to offering a blend of conventional and alternative medicine, our medicine is highly personalized. A first office visits lasts for up to two hours and follow up visits generally last for an hour. This gives us time to get to know our patients and their health history and to discuss each of their health concerns.

Dr Bryant-We find that many patients are dissatisfied with their current medical care. They are spending less and less time with their doctors–often having to schedule multiple visits to discuss each of their health

concerns. They are looking for a more holistic, individualized approach and we provide that.

Q. Are doctors at NaturoMedica willing to work alongside my existing doctor?

Dr. Monster-Absolutely. We can work alongside your established physician or provide primary care. We believe in finding the best medical care for each person, which may mean working with multiple practitioners. We maintain an extensive referral network and we often work with medical doctors and other healthcare providers. Our goal is simply to do what is best for each patient.

Dr. Forsberg, Dr. McInnis, Dr. Monster and Dr. Bryant.

Having lived in the Issaquah area and worked in the greater Seattle area for over 40 years, she has been serving residents with their real estate needs for 30+ years, � rst as their lender and then as their real estate broker. As a lender, she was one of the original direct endorsement underwriters certi� ed in 10 states by HUD to review and underwrite their appraisals and loans. She also was the Chief Operations Of� cer for a credit union owned mortgage company as well as the Western Regional Manager of Contract Underwriting of a major mortgage insurer. This lending experience gives her the edge on hedging possible lending restrictions on properties.

Coming from 30+ years in mortgage lending, it was a natural progression to becoming a real estate broker in 2003. It was a great transition for her since she was able to help some of her past loan clients sell their current home and buy their next home.

She works by referral, believing that every client is an investment in her future. So if you have a client who is upsizing, downsizing or widesizing, and would like to have a knowledgeable person along with high integrity and quality of service that she provides, please call her with their name, phone number and/or email address and she would be happy to assist them and provide the quality service that they deserve.

BY KEVIN ENDEJANKENDEJAN@ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM

When Mike Swanson stares at code on a computer screen it’s more than num-bers and symbols — it’s a thing of beauty.

“It’s very geeky, but for me it’s the ultimate experience,” said the 43-year-old Sam-mamish resident. “It might be like somebody writing a piece of music or creating a painting or something. For me, it’s the same thing.”

A former evangelist for Microso� , Swanson’s job required testing competitors’ technology.

It was there, while tinker-ing with iOS programs —

the type used on Apple’s iP-hones and iPads — an idea was born. Swanson — who taught himself computer coding in the fourth grade, started a so� ware company

in high school and skipped college to open a successful consulting business — caught the entrepreneurial bug again.

“I’m a so� ware developer at heart,” he said. “� is kind of played into it, I got to build my own things.”

Experimenting in his free time, Swanson developed his � rst application, 3D Camera — a program that turns normal photographs into three-dimensional images.

“I got to a point where I was having enough fun doing it and it seemed like something that could sustain me,” said Swanson, who opted to step away from Microso� a� er more than 11 years.

Now, almost a year since moving into his home o� ce, Swanson has seven di� erent apps under his belt. Two in particular have garnered signi� cant world-wide exposure.

Hal� one, which was released in February 2011, has been downloaded 1,756,266 times and was

most recently featured as Starbucks Pick of the Week.

� e application gives images a vintage style that makes them look like they came from an old comic strip.

Swanson admits he’s amazed by the amount of

attention the app still gar-ners a� er 18 months on the market, noting at one point Hal� one was second overall app in the United Kingdom in front of the ever popular Angry Birds.

His other popular app, Layout, is designed for the iPad and allows users to add multiple photos to one page, split frames, add mul-tiple photos, change shapes and more. It was released at the end of June as an Apple Editors’ Choice, meaning it sat featured atop the iTunes

store for a week. While things are going

well for Swanson, he said he o� en detours people from following in his footsteps.

“It’s not because I’m not having a great time doing it because I am; it’s because I have been lucky,” he said.

“It’s one of those things as an independently employed guy you wake up every morning and it’s like ‘� is can’t work, this can’t sustain itself, can it?’”

So far, so good for the self-described geek.

An example of Mike Swanson’s Hal� one app. � e photo program has been downloaded 1,756,266 times since launching in February 2011. KEVIN ENDEJAN, Issaquah & Sammamish Reporter

When Eli Rico began � shing Lake Sam-mamish in the mid 1990s, word around town was the salmon weren’t worth the trouble.

Rico, a � shing guide for the past 23 years in Florida and both sides of Washington’s Cascade Mountains, heard the rumors that the salmon in Lake Sammamish couldn’t be caught. But as he looked into Issaquah Creek from the backyard of the apartments he lived in, Rico knew he had to put his own techniques to use. So he took to his boat with two local clients and set out to change the trend.

“Our � shing techniques are way di� erent from what is done in Western Washington,” Rico said. “I brought out two clients and we got two salmon that � rst time.”

Fresh salmon in tow, Rico waltzed into the old Bu� alo Bill’s sporting good store to the amazement of the local � shing brain-trust. When a reporter came to the lake to chronicle Rico’s unlikely catch a few days later, he was le� with a non-story a� er neither of the two � sh that came into the boat were salmon. But two decades later, with an increased e� ort on returning salmon migration to healthy levels in Lake Sammamish, Rico and the � ocks of anglers

that return each summer no longer have to worry about getting skunked.

“It’s not a matter of if we will catch � sh,”

Rico said. “But how fast we’re going to get them.”

Above-average temperatures during the

� rst three days of the season tempered the salmon’s presence in Lake Sammamish, but Rico said as the weather cools, he has no doubt the � sh will migrate in from the deeper, colder pools in Lake Washington.

At least two dozen boats were at the boat launch by midday Aug. 17 in anticipa-tion, hoping to catch one of the large King Salmon the lake has become known for. Rico said he corralled one and saw at least one other boat that was able to get into the action. He added that each generation of salmon that migrates to Lake Sammamish is inclined to slightly di� erent colors, scents and even presentations of lures, which means keeping in tune with the � ner points of the process will separate the empty boats from the full ones.

Rico’s clients can look forward to not only an a� ernoon on the water, but a com-plete King Salmon � shing experience in his 21-foot River Jet. For those who live on the lake, that comes complete with a dockside pickup and barbecue dinner.

“� e biggest thing I hear from my clients is they don’t know there are King Salmon here,” Rico said. “� en they see the size of the � sh and can’t believe they go swimming in that water.”

� e salmon season continues on Lake Sammamish until November 30 and only � sh 12 inches or longer may be kept.

Anglers � ock to Lake Sammamish for opening day

Lakeside Baseball Club � nished its Ameri-can Legion World Series run on Tuesday evening in Shelby, N.C. with a 4-3 loss to Brooklawn, N.J., ending the tournament in third place and � nishing the season at 39-15.

A� er an 11-5 win over Illinois to open the tournament, Lakeside dropped the � rst of two games to Brooklawn, 3-2 in extra in-nings. But a complete-game four-hitter from Brandon Mahovlich to help the team to a 4-1 win over California kept the title hopes alive in the following game and sent Lake-side to face eventual champion Louisiana.

Issaquah High School’s Ethan Kalin and

Newport’s Jacob Rosen combined to work eight and two-thirds innings on the mound for Lakeside, again with its back against the wall, and handed the Louisiana squad its only loss of the tournament, 10-6 to set up the rematch with Brooklawn.

Prior to qualifying for the World Series by winning the Northwest Championship with a 4-1 run, Lakeside won nine in a row. Coach Rob Reese’s squad � nished the season with wins in 16 of its � nal 19 games and won sub-regional, state and regional champion-ships in the process.

Issaquah’s Brandon Mahovlich and Skyline’s Jimmy Sinatro were both named to the 13-man All-Tournament team for their e� orts over the � ve games.

Skyline’s Matt Sinatro sets to make a play at second base for the Lakeside Baseball Club at the American Legion World Series. ELDON LINDSAY, American Legion

“You watch him on days like this and you think, maybe he’ll be in the 20 percent,” said Brian, his father, “but you have no idea.”

Tricia remembers one hospital visit this year where he was struggling so much, she told him if he needed to stop fighting, that it was alright. He could go.

“He’s strong willed, and that’s good for him,” she said. “I just hope he can have this zest for life and not be bogged down by all this medical stuff. I hope that he can love life, and love people.”

Calvin’s diagnostic journey has been long, and it’s far from over. At two he received a feeding tube. He has to use the machine while he sleeps, because he can’t go longer than three hours without sustenance.

This year he was diag-nosed with seizures. His siblings call it “brain freeze.”

He’s also beginning to have cognitive problems, which could be caused by a second disorder. They’re hoping the fun run Sunday will raise enough money to pay for the genetic testing to determine the cause.

It’s also encougaring, Tri-cia said. Last year, “I looked out and saw a community of people, and I realized our family was not alone.”

‘TerriBle’ smell, loTs of fleas

A Sammamish resident called police Aug. 14 to re-port a “terrible” smell com-ing from their neighbor’s home. Police found a large amount of garbage accumu-lating in the front yard of the home in the 3000 block of 252nd Place Southeast and every room stacked with garbage — some halfway to

the ceiling.The officer encounered a

large number of cats in the home infested with fleas and reported multiple fleas crawling across his arms and face. He took photos and submitted a report.

oil sliCkA Sammamish man

called police Aug. 13 to report that his ex wife dumped a tub of motor oil on his car.

The ex became upset that he was getting remarried and confronted him while he was changing the oil in his car.

id issUesWhile responding to a

complaint of a loud party, police found a Bellevue man urinating in the bushes of a Sammamish home Aug. 18.

The man presented what appeared to be a real ID to police, indicating he was 22 years old. When the name didn’t check, police realized ID was a really good fake. The man, who was actually 20 years old, was taken into

custody by police for illegal consumption of alcohol by a minor.

eGGed aGainA Sammamish man

called police Aug. 15 to report his vehicle had been egged for a third time.

The victim said he believes the eggings to be random and has no idea why he was targeted.

mUlTiPle THefTsA renter on Eastlake

Eastside StoryWhat’s happening in nearby cities

Redmond plans to transform a two-acre parcel of land downtown into a “sig-nature” gathering space. � e park, at 16101 Redmond Way, already has taken some shape with the creation of a large

open, green space on about half of the planned park site. � e city plans to start the master planning process for the park early next year.

Twenty-� ve Eastside kids participated in this year’s Target School Spree program at the Target in Red-mond on Aug. 16. � e program is a partnership with the

Salvation Army that gives kids from low-income families the opportunity to shop for new clothes for the upcoming school year with an $80 gi� card from Target.

An apartment � re in Kirkland Aug. 17 damaged six apartment units. No residents or � re� ghters were injured. Four of the units had � re damage on the inside and the other two had smoke damage, said KFD o� cials. All the residents were able to � nd family or friends to stay with

while the � re department conducts the investigation.

The Sikh community in Bothell held a candlelight vigil Aug. 15 in honor of the six people who were killed on Aug. 5 during a shooting rampage in Oak Creek, Wis. � e

Bothell temple has been open for just over two years and regularly welcomes about 500-700 Sikhs from Bellevue to Everett. � ere is another temple in Renton.

The Bellevue Arts Museum has installed hearing aid compatible technology. � e process involves the installa-tion of an induction hearing loop at its guest services and auditorium. � e loop transmits sound from a microphone electromagnetically, directly to the hearing aid user’s ear. � e museum is located at 510 Bellevue Way NE.

The Port of Seattle Commission voted Aug. 15 to ap-prove the sale of portions of the Eastside Rail Corridor to King County. Commissioners also agreed to grant King County a permanent easement over a portion of the cor-ridor that still has freight service, allowing the county to develop a recreational trail. � e transaction now goes to the King County Council for � nal approval.
