A Woodinville man has pled guilty to leaving the scene of a single-vehicle accident last September on the Kirkland and Kenmore boundary that left one of the passengers dead.

Thomas Cush-man Bird, II of Woodinville, 48, pled guilty to first degree vehicular homicide, second-degree vehicular assault and third-degree hit-and-run attended, and faces a potential sentence of 42 months in prison. Sentencing is scheduled for Sept. 25.

Although he has no prior felony convictions, prosecutors stated he has an extensive history of vi-olating traffic laws going back to 1989, including negligent driving, reck-less driving, hit-and-run attended and unattended and no valid operator’s license with valid identifi-cation (NVOL).

The accident occurred late in the evening on Sept. 19 after Bird had been drinking at a local Kirkland casino with several friends, including Kenmore resident and Redmond High School graduate Kyle J. Reel and Dave “Beaver” Zielinski, one of the fisherman on

the boat “Time Bandit,” featured on Discovery Channel’s Deadli-est Catch. Then they left in a Porsche Bird borrowed from a friend.

At around 10:45 p.m., police

believe Cushman was going around 80 mph in a 35 mph zone when he lost control, crossed into the oncoming lane, left the roadway and crashed into a fence and up an embankment at Simonds Road Northeast and 92nd Avenue Northeast.

Elections aren’t just about the demo-cratic process or the freedom to choose the desired candidate for the job; these days it’s also about a metric ton of money exchanging hands to � nance the campaigns of politicians - Bothell is no di� erent.

“Campaign contribu-tions play an important part in allowing the candidate to get the word out about why they are running for council,” said Andy Rheaume, incum-bent for Bothell City Council posi-tion 2. “� e vast majority of cam-paign � nancing should come from Bothell residents and the candidate’s family [and] friends.”

Since June, more than $44,000 was raised by sev-en of the eight candidates

for Bothell City Council. While most donations came from private citizens, there is also Political Ac-

tion Committees (PAC) and corpo-rate money � nanc-ing local elections.

“I was surprised to see how much the candidates raised. In a town the size of Both-ell, it’s entirely possible to spread

a message without going into high � nance,” said Maryanna Price, a Bothell council candidate who did not pass the primary election in August. “As for

how loudly money speaks and how well it’s heard, I’d have to say that candidates do tend to respond to those who give dona-tions. We’ve seen the loyalties of the majority line up

too frequently with the moneyed donors.”

� e practice of using money or gi� s to entice voters or in� uence election outcomes has been used

since George Washing-ton spent $195 (around $5,460.60 in today’s value, according to Measuring-Worth.com) for food and drinks in the elections for the Virginia House of Burgesses, and long before that.

“I don’t see the role of campaign � nances in Bothell elections as being fundamentally di� erent from the role… in any other elections. � at is, campaign contributions provide an opportunity for the candidate to get his or her message out to voters more broadly than possible through face-to-face inter-actions alone,” said Robert Carsrud, a primary candidate for Bothell City Council position 4, who will not be on the ballot in November. “However, I do believe that in a city elec-tion, the results are going to be more heavily in� u-enced by those face-to-face interactions…”

To combat the ways money can corrupt poli-tics, the government has rules to regulate campaign

contributions. First, the candi-

dates must not only report each dona-tion, but must also identify anyone who is contribut-ing more than $25 by name and street address.

Second, there are contribution limits for candidate campaigns, di� erent limits for dif-ferent o� ces. City o� ce positions have a campaign contribution limit of $950.

However, there are separate fund-ing limits for the primary and the general elections, so the same indi-vidual or corporate entity can spend a total of $1,900 during an elections

year. � ird, the state gov-

ernment provides public � nancing for the elections by using public funds. However, a candidate must

not raise any private capi-tal and can only spend a speci� c amount of money on their campaign. � e dollar amount is set by the states.

However, noth-ing is that simple, and the rules and regulations are extremely confus-ing. Even more confusing can be who can and can-not contribute to political campaigns.

� is year, Northshore School District candidate David Cogan ran afoul of the campaign � nancial laws when he accepted a donation of time and skills that topped more than $5,000.

“…� e individ-ual who provided services to the campaign is not a professional and does not perform those services in any other capacity where she would be compensated. ‘Volunteer services’ are not a contribution under the provisions of RCW

42.17A.005(13)(b)(vi),” said Lori Anderson, of the Washington State Public Disclosure Commission.

“When it’s money, the candidate is in-structed to refund the contribution. When it’s an in-kind contribution, the item could be returned if the cir-cumstances allow or the candidate could reimburse

the contributor.”Cogan was directed to

� le an amended report.Outside of errors in

reporting, other important issues arise when talking

about campaign contributions.

Take, for in-stance, PACs and Super PACs, the latter of which can raise an unlimited amount of money for any candidate, issue, company,

union, association or entity they choose. � ey are not required to report and disclose contributions and they are not required

Money plays a big role in politics, including in Bothell

him to suffer fatal inju-ries. When responding bystanders arrived they mistakenly believed he was the driver and pulled him out.

Barely conscious from severe rib fractures, Zielinski told people that Bird had been driving, which police at the scene assumed was a nickname for Reel, the presumed driver.

Bird then left the scene of the accident immedi-ately, despite suffering significant injuries, and walked to Zielinski’s home three miles away. He was discovered there the next morning when a friend arrived to take care of Zielinski’s dogs. After explaining to her what had happened, Bird told the person not to contact the police or medics, ac-cording to prosecutor’s presentence report. It was then the police discov-ered that Reel was not the driver.

Police were then in-formed that a Shoreline medic unit had responded to the Zielinski residence to treat Bird, who even-tually was transported to Haborview Medical Center. Bird was found to have injuries that were consistent with that of a car accident, according to the medic supervisor who contacted the police. They also claimed Bird had admitted to the med-ics he had been driving the Porsche.

As part of the guilty plea, Bird is prohibited from having any contact with Zielinski.

The Reporter first became aware of the mistaken identity after it was contacted by Anita Reel, Kyle Reel’s mother. Anita Reel insisted her

son had not been behind the wheel and would not have driven while in-toxicated. Kirkland Police Department officials, while maintaining that the crash was still under investigation, confirmed her claims that her son was not the driver. The blood alcohol level of Bird could not be con-firmed by police.

At the hospital, Kirk-land police questioned Bird, who allegedly stopped speaking with them once he learned Reel had been killed. He was arrested and then released on his own re-cognizance.

During the followup in-vestigation, casino video footage showed Bird had

consumed at least six alcoholic beverages at the Kirkland casino approxi-mately between 8:05-10:17 p.m. The footage also showed Bird getting into the driver’s seat of the Porsche as it left the casino at around 10:34 p.m.

After news got out about Reel’s death, friends and family have also left photos and flowers at the site of the crash. His cel-ebration of life ceremony was held Sept. 28 at the VFW Hall in Redmond. A lifelong self-employed businessman, he eventu-ally moved up to Bristol Bay in Alaska to work as a fisherman and was described by his mother as honest and funny.

SnoPUD needs to learn from surrounding providers

� e last few days have been trying for many in our region: loss of life and property due to the Great Windstorm of 2015 puts everything into perspective. Hats o� to the workers in the � eld who, like the clients they serve, made do with less-than-ideal circumstances. But, their hard work and e� orts were hugely undermined by a pathetic re-sponse and “update” system by the [Snohom-ish Public Utility District] SnoPUD.

Unlike some of the neighboring utilities, SnoPUD did not clearly articulate their restoration plans and timelines, leaving tens of thousands literally “in the dark” and immensely frustrated.

My 14 year-old niece can do a better job on so-cial media than your so-called media team. When updates became available (either by phone or online), they were generic “we understand you…thank you for your patience” drivel. At one point over an eight-hour period, 500 customers were restored. 500? With 45-plus crews in the � eld and many more trickling in, were customers supposed to do cartwheels? � e 500 probably did, but what about the 20,000-plus who were le� with “We so appreciate your patience, and are doing our very best to make repairs as quickly as is safely possible throughout the area?” Meaningless.

� eir messaging was also contradictory and confusing: “If your power is out, we know and are working as quickly as we safely can to restore it,

so there’s no need to report it to the outage line. However, please do report downed lines or other damage by calling 425-783-1001,” which was then followed by “Our storm center wants to make sure we don’t miss anyone. If you are still without power please call our outage line at 425-783-1001 to make sure we have your home or business on our resto-ration list… � anks for your patience!” Right.

SnoPUD: take a page from your counterparts. While not a perfect system, at least their clients

know, by way of geographic area, estimated restoration time, customers impacted, and

status (crews onsite, assigned, etc.). Your linemen deserve your representation, but above all, your clients deserve better service than that.As of this writing, there are still 18,500

SnoPUD clients without power, 72-plus hours into this ordeal.Eldon Guerrero, Bothell

Bothell police need more enforcement in school zones

Yesterday, Sept. 2, was the � rst day of school for Northshore School District. I was walking to get my three children from Woodmoor Elementary around 3:20 p.m., as I do every school day. When I reached Northeast 160th Street across from North-shore Junior High, I waited for the light to change. I got my walk signal and then a car on Northeast 160th traveling about 40 miles per hour ran her red light. I was safe but if there had been students

crossing from the other side, they would have been gravely injured.

I have seen numerous cars speed through that intersection and run red lights, endangering students, parents, and younger siblings. Cars have been speeding through nearby neighborhoods, and the � ashing school zone lights in the area still have not been turned on.

It is imperative that the Bothell police step up enforcement around all of our schools. I want to see police cars in the area not just now at the begin-ning, but throughout the school year, particularly at those critical before- and a� er-school times when students are walking in the area.

I am very worried for the safety of our chil-dren. Crossing guards are not always present (in particular for the junior high students) and even when they are, I’ve seen their instructions ignored by drivers.

� e population of our region continues to grow uncontrolled; just today (Sept. 3) the Seattle Times ran a front-page story about how greater Seattle is one of the worst metro areas in the country in terms of the rate of tra� c accidents, and it’s getting worse. � e safety of our children should be the highest priority of the Bothell police, the city, its citizens, and our tax dollars.

If we need to raise money to increase police patrols, let’s do it. If we need to add an extra second to the signal lights before the walk signal switches on for our kids, let’s do that, too. Elizabeth Stall, Bothell

The tragedy that took place in Kenmore with the death of a local cyclist is unfortunately nothing new.

Kenmore resident Gordon Gray, 70, who was an avid triathlete, was struck by a cement truck and died later at Harborview Medical Center.

Gray was riding his bike southbound on 65th Avenue Northeast a� er turning o� of the Burke-Gilman Trail when he apparently failed to stop at the stop sign and was struck by a cement truck heading west on Northeast 175th Street, according to the King County Sheri� ’s O� ce.

� e accident is sad and impacts so many lives. � e most obvious is Gray, his fam-ily and friends, who we send our sincerest condolences for their loss.

It also impacts the driver of the truck and his friends and family in a di� erent way.

It also impacts all of us in Northshore and those in the cycling community.

I saw in many community postings online some great tributes to Gray. I also saw many people post-ing insensitive things about cyclists that are not appropriate when, not only has the investigation not concluded but there are people grieving for the victim.

� ere always seems to be a divide in our com-munity between motor vehicle drivers and cyclists that rears its ugly head when incidents like these take place. � ere are those who drive cars and re-sent cyclists for obeying the law by driving on city streets and slowing motor vehicles down. � ose aggravations are exacerbated when cyclists ride in groups, instead of single � le, blow through red lights or don’t signal when changing lanes. Not all

cyclists do these things but it only takes one or two to make someone upset.

Cyclists get upset because they do have a right to drive on city streets and most obey the rules of the road. Riding on the side of the road in bike lanes or with tra� c can be dangerous. � ere are hazards that only cyclists understand, like broken glass and debris, among other things. Not all drivers obey the rules either, and some feel the protection of a couple-ton vehicle when riding along side or behind a cyclist. Some also feel the need to exert their dominance.

I am not a cyclist. I have rarely, if ever, ridden a bike with tra� c, but I have friends who ride.

Our area has a lot of cyclists. Juanita Drive in Kenmore is one of the busiest in the area for street cyclists and we all need to be aware of the potential dangers. During the past six years as a reporter and editor for the Bothell, Kenmore and Kirkland Reporter newspapers I have covered far too many cyclist fatalities. Six to be exact, and frankly, one is

too many. Commuter cycling is getting more and more

popular with how congested our tra� c has be-come.

We all have to be more sensitive to the needs of other cyclists and motor vehicles when driving or riding, and obey all laws. � is is not a problem that is going to get better until we all realize that we have to share the roadways.

� e investigation into the cause of Gray’s death is still pending a full conclusion by the Sheri� ’s o� ce and everyone should check their opinion at the door. � ink about your comments and how a family member or friend of the victim may feel.

No matter who is at fault in this case, the fact remains that a member of our community has died and we all need to be sensitive to that and � nd ways to prevent it from happening at all.

can kind of feel it now,” Mike McMenamin said.

� e Bothell Reporter was given a tour of the facil-ity to showcase some of the details of the building, including a bit about what it took to get the construction completed - including the miles of wood and wiring that went into the Ander-son building.

“It seems like a long time ago. You kind of lose it when you go through the demolition stage and you get discouraged because you’re tearing stu� apart,” said Brian McMenamin. “But then the construction starts and then you start to see it. � e next step, obvi-ously, will be to have people coming onto the property, coming on and seeing all the things.”

And the completion is close. � e company has been hiring all the sta� , from the hotel to cooking sta� and brewery workers.

“Just to see the � nishing touches come out of the woodwork, it’s good,” Brian said.

While the vast majority is mostly completed, it’s the details that are being � nished currently. Details such as the � nal head-boards being hand-painted by local cra� sman.

“� e designs are based on stories, the history of the area,” said artist Andy Eccleshall of the farm headboard.

Each of the boards is uniquely di� erent and many take cues from local Bothell history, though others are just decorations. One of the boards, featur-ing a farm scape, is from a piece of Bothell history. A wealthy Italian, who knew nothing of golf, came to Bothell in the 40s and pur-chased a golf course to turn it into a farm.

“It’s been so much fun. � e space is a little cramped, I guess, but out-side of that it’s been a huge amount of fun,” Eccleshall said. He started his artistic career in illustration. “You start o� with a story and design the piece around it - it’s pure illustration. It’s good fun.”

Other areas are also get-ting the � nal touches. In the bathrooms of each hotel room, the wall’s decorative borders are being hand-painted, as well.

“I do one color at a time, so it goes quicker that way. It’s really exciting to see a project like this come to fruition,” said Olivia Behm, one of the lead artists. “� e physical aspect of border painting, trying to get around with a ladder that doesn’t � t in here. I’ve been with [the McMenamins] for a long time and I’ll be with them for as long as they have me.”

� ose are not the only hardships that the McMe-

namins have faced in the months leading up to and going through the con-struction phase.

“I’d like to sing the prais-es of the Seattle artists that have come and helped out,” Behm said. “� ey’ve been putting their own stamp on the borders, and they’ve done a whole bunch of beautiful artwork that will be hung and framed in the hallways. I’m very pleased to have the group I’ve got; the crew is fabulous.”

Artwork will be com-ing from numerous locals, from the “really wacky” to the more traditional artistic styles.

However, one of the big-gest di� culties may be the room without a window. It ended up making for a unique experience.

“Finally we � gured out that you could put a round window in without doing all the structural stu� , because it’s self-supported,” Mike said.

Workers just drilled a

circular hole in the wall and install a stained glass piece of art that will be the room’s window, the perfect centerpiece for this western facing room.

“We didn’t even know you could core a hole that big, but you can. And we had a window that perfectly � t. It’s pretty cool. It’s the only one,” Mike said.

And that’s not the only unique piece in the com-plex. � e bar in the game room was taken from an old cigar shope and still boasts the hidden compart-ments behind the displays. � e bar in the community room, near the theater, was taken from the old Portland Hotel, which was

torn down in 1951. Other components were also salvaged from the Portland Hotel and old buildings like it to give the building a unique � air.

“� is is the woodshop, where the sports bar will be.

� is is where they kept all the secret things, the booze and stu� ,” Brian said as he opensedone of the secret cubbies in the turn-of-the-century cigar bar. “We’re go-ing to do some leaded glass along the outside.”

Just behind the wall behind the cigar-bar is the brewery with McMenamin’s copper distilleries. While the ‘Brew-Crew’ has been chosen, those in the crew have yet to be named. � e distilleries were built in Canby, Ore., keeping things Paci� c Northwest local, just like the new brewmaster.

“We just hired someone of some renown up here to be the brewmaster,” Mike said.

However, the Brew Crew will be hard at work prior to the opening of the Anderson School, as McMenamin’s beers will be at the Bothell Oktoberfest, though they are keeping those speci� c brews for the festival classi� ed ‘Top Secret’ by the McMenamins brothers.

“It’s starting pretty soon, around Sept. 11 or 12,” Mike said. “We have to have a good stash, a good bunch of beer to open with. Hopefully eight or 10 beers.”

� e attention to detail has been taken to the next level. � e art-deco style � xtures perfectly blend with a pseu-do-steampunk atmosphere, blending old school styling

with modern motifs.“� is is stu� that we’ve

been purchasing and storing for up to 30-years,” Mike said. “� ere’s probably a thousand � xtures here.”

� e � rst-run movie theater is decked out with movie posters from the Golden Age of Hollywood, seats comfortable enough to take a nap and giant chande-liers gracing the ceilings.

“We’ve got a huge stash of these cast iron � xtures from England, I think almost all of them are ending up here, somewhere on the property,” said Mike. “We emptied a whole wing in a jail we own in Edge� eld. It’s designed like a pinwheel and each wing, which is about 90-feet long or so, is � lled with something, whether it be windows, or lighting, or burl storage for whiskey, chairs, wine…”

McMenamin’s owns a closed jail where they house all their antique � ndings. Located in Multnomah County in Oregon, the former Multnomah County Correctional Facility is a 11,000 square-foot jail the brothers turned into a hotel. Some of the wings are used as storage for the McMe-namin’s many antiques.

“We’ve been buying glass, like light � xtures, over the years. Just buy collections, it’s just collecting 100-year-old stu� that has quality and-

cra� sman and adds to the place,” Brian said. “It adds to the � avor. � ere’s a bunch more things coming out. � ere’s pieces from a lot of di� erent pubs going in here.”

However, nowhere has been such a point of conten-tion as the state of the pool. � e McMenamins have already stated that Bothell residents can use the pool for free. Many residents have voiced concern in the past that it is not the kind of pool they were expecting.

“Grab a mai-tai and hang out there, but the next step is getting the interior in here,” said Brian of the pool room, which still needs the plants

and trees that will make the pool building an oasis.

� e pool is accentuated by Asian-inspired bamboo sid-ing that turns the old build-ing into a tropical experience for everyone. � e interior was inspired by an island and watery feel, but comes from multiple societies.

“It’s more just kind of an island-feel in general. � ere’s going to be Africa, Indo-nesian, Chinese, Egyptian, Moroccan, Indian, Ameri-cana… Every kind of art, but they all feel kind of prim-itive-water island. It lends itself to that I think,” Mike said. “It’s actually starting to get there. [� e pool has]

been the hardest space in the whole place to do, and how to make it fun. We’ve been through so many iterations that we have plans [inches] deep, but we’re happy with where it’s come.”

All in all, the Anderson Building will still have the old ‘school house’ feel, but with a � air for worldly an-tiques from across the globe. Everything from age-old European embellishments all the way to more modern features.

“At this point, we’re so close, we just want to get it open,” Brian said. “It’s taken its toll on us.”

[ HOTEL from page 5]Rep. Stanford to co-chair water task force

As decreasing water levels and increasing threats to water quality become a reality in Wash-ington, state Rep. Derek Stanford (D – Bothell) has been appointed to serve as co-chair of the Interim Task Force on Washing-ton Waters.

� e task force will work through the interim and provide the Legislature with recommendations on funding for water proj-ects throughout the state and information on how to address some of our most pressing water is-sues. “Developing smarter and cleaner water policies has been one of my top priorities as a legislator,” Stanford said. “It’s the most precious resource we have, crucial for farms, � shing and our growing communities. We need policies and investments that balance the needs of conservation, agriculture and municipal infra-structure. My goal is to make sure everyone has access to clean and safe water supplies, despite the increasing risk of drought in future years.”

Several recently pub-lished studies on aging all seem to lead to the

same conclusion: when it comes to diet and lifestyle choices, older adults are well advised to practice mod-eration. Whether it concerns weight management, physi-cal activity, or alcohol and tobacco use, health experts

urge people to consider their limitations and changing needs as they approach their senior years.

One such study, led by researchers at the National Institute on Aging (NIA), found that gradual calorie restriction in mid-life could help lower the risk of many diseases later on. � e � ndings

con� rm what has previously been shown only in animal studies, namely that reduc-ing food intake could have a positive impact on aging and longevity, thereby support-ing the message that weight control becomes ever more important in the second half of life.

Similarly, experts recom-

mend age-appropriate behav-ior when it comes to exercise. While physical activity is crucial for healthy aging – as it is for good health in general – there are limits to what people can endure as they grow older. Of course, much de-pends on a person’s individual � tness level, but certain precautions should be observed regardless. � e good news is that even small-er doses of regular exercise

(emphasis on regular) can produce signi� cant bene� ts, not only for the aging body but, equally as important,

for the mind. As studies have shown, even less strenu-ous activities like walking, bicycling, or swimming can help improve heart health as well as cognitive abilities. But for seniors, try-

ing harder may not necessar-ily lead to better results.

It has o� en been sug-

gested that drinking alcohol, particularly red wine, may be bene� cial for the heart. To be sure, those claims are not beyond dispute, and the jury is still out on what alcohol actually does for peoples’ well-being other than make them feel good. What is well established, however, is that consuming high amounts is dangerous and can have enormously detrimental consequences in multiple ways, including for aging. As it gets older, the human body becomes increasingly vulnerable to the e� ects of alcohol and is less able to handle its toxicity, accord-ing to research. � at is why the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcohol-ism (NIAAA) recommends for seniors no more than one glass of alcoholic beverages per day.

It goes without saying that avoidance or cessation of tobacco use is a good idea at any time, but, again, it becomes a more pressing matter at an advanced age.

Most of the studies mentioned rea� rm other � ndings of the past. For instance, according to the guidelines for healthy aging by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), all adults over the age of 50 should be conscious of their changing health needs. Dietary choices should depend on activity level and other factors like eating styles, food sources, and so on. Following a regular exercise regimen can be instrumental in slowing down the natural aging process, but age-related limitations must be taken into account.

Maryam Abdi of the University of Evansville, Ind. has been o� ered a Fulbright U.S. Student Program grant to Cameroon in � eater Studies, the United States Department of State and the J. William Fulbright Foreign Scholarship Board. She is a 2011 graduate of Inglemoor High School, where she pursued the International Baccalaureate Program, as well as theatre studies.

Maryam is one of over 1,900 U.S. citizens who will travel abroad for the 2015-2016 academic year through the Fulbright U.S. Student Program. Recipients of Fulbright grants are selected on the basis of academic and professional achievement, as well as demonstrated leader-ship potential.

� e Fulbright Program is the � agship international educational exchange pro-gram sponsored by the U.S. government and is designed to increase mutual under-standing between the people of the United States and the people of other countries. � e primary source of fund-ing for the Fulbright Program is an annual appropriation made by the U.S. Congress to

the U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Educational and Cultural A� airs. Participat-ing governments and host institutions, corporations and foundations in foreign coun-tries and in the United States also provide direct and in-direct support. Recipients of Fulbright grants are selected on the basis of academic or professional achievement, as well as demonstrated leader-ship potential in their � elds. � e Program operates in over 160 countries worldwide.

Since its establishment in 1946 under legislation introduced by the late U.S. Senator J. William Fulbright of Arkansas, the Fulbright Program has given ap-proximately 360,000 students, scholars, teachers, artists, and

scientists the opportunity to study, teach and conduct research, exchange ideas and contribute to � nding solu-tions to shared international concerns.

Fulbright alumni have achieved distinction in government, science, the arts, business, philanthropy, edu-cation, and many other � elds.

football team lost in heart-breaking fashion to Issaquah on a last second � eld goal 29-28, on Friday, falling to 0-2.

� e Eagles got on the board � rst with a touchdown but Bothell came back just 40 seconds later to tie the game on a 69-yard touchdown pass from Jacob Sirmon to Josh Schulke.

Issaquah took a seven-point lead heading into hal� ime on an interception return for a touchdown.

Damani St. John-Watkins tied the game at 14-14, bust-ing through the Issaquah defense for a 58-yard touch-down run.

� e Cougars took their � rst lead of the game during the � rst minute of the fourth quarter, as Caleb Meyers put the ball in the end zone on a six-yard run.

But the Eagles put together

a fourth-quarter drive of their own, culminating in a touch-down. However, Issaquah would go for two points and fail.

� e Eagles would get the ball back and kick a � eld goal with three seconds remaining in the game to win.

� e Cougars lost 22-19 against Eastlake at home to start the season.

CPC football improves to 2-0

� e Cedar Park Chris-tian football team has now matched its win total for the entire 2014 season with a 51-22 victory against Springbank Community High School from Calgary in Canada at Redmond High School on Friday. � e win is the team’s second in as many games.

� e Eagles dominated the � rst quarter on the legs of Josiah Sergeant. � e Cedar Park junior capped the Eagles’ � rst drive by running the ball into the end zone from three-yards out, then on the ensuing possession picked o� a Springbank pass

and ran it 34 yards into the end zone, giving Cedar Park a 14-0 lead.

� e Eagles extended the lead to 24-0 heading into the second quarter on a Jack Flynn 35-yard touchdown run and a Bradley Cumley 35-yard � eld goal.

Sergeant got back in the end zone to start the second quarter, returning a punt 71 yards for a touchdown.

Springbank showed some life during the second half but it wasn’t enough. Cumley hit a 27-yard � eld goal during the third quarter and Ser-geant scored on an electrify-ing 84-yard run play during the fourth quarter to cap the scoring.

Sergeant � nished the game with 105-yards rushing and three touchdowns.

� e Eagles began the season with a hard fought victory against Seattle Prep, 8-3, in Seattle on Sept. 4.

� e Eagles got on the board � rst as Flynn busted through the line to rumble 36 yards for a second-quarter touchdown. � e team added a two-point conversion as Jaden She� ey found Noah Anglin for the pass reception. Cedar Park took that 8-0 lead into hal� ime.

� e Eagles dominated the line of scrimmage during the game, rushing for 177 yards.

For the Eagles, Anglin � nished with 64-yard rushing and 10 tackles on defense, Flynn collected 57-yards rushing, seven tackles and a fumble recovery, while Brady Anderson � nished with eight tackles.

Everett Herald

One person’s idle doodling is another’s mathematical breakthrough.

Two mathematics profes-sors and one of their former students at the University of Washington at Bothell have made a discovery in mathematics that could have applications in crystal-lography or self-assembling nanomachines.

Or it could provide an interesting tiling project for the bathroom � oor.

� eir discovery is in an esoteric branch of geometry called tessellation, or tiling of identical shapes that can cover a two-dimensional plane with no gaps and no overlaps, out to in� nity.

Casey Mann and Jen-nifer McCloud-Mann are both associate professors of mathematics at UW Bothell. � ey’re also married to each other.

� e Manns and a former undergraduate student, David Von Derau, have discovered a pattern of tiling convex irregular pentagons.

It’s only the 15th tiling pattern for pentagons ever discovered, and they only did it with the help of a computer program that Von Derau wrote.

Pentagons present a unique problem in geometry.

Tiling can be easy to grasp at � rst, but it gets complicated quickly.

� ere are only three regu-lar polygons — shapes whose interior angles are the same and the sides are the same lengths — that tile in a plane: triangles, quadrangles and hexagons.

� ey are convex shapes, meaning all the interior angles are less than 180 de-grees.

It’s easy to tile triangles and quadrangles because we’ve all seen graph paper, or been stuck on a boring phone call with a pen and notepad handy.

It’s a little trickier to envi-sion tiling with hexagons, but imagine a honeycomb, snow� akes or (if you’re a certain nerdy sort of person) a battle map from a role-playing game.

But that’s it for the regular

polygons. Now it gets com-plicated.

Even with irregular shapes included, it can be mathemat-ically proven, for example, that there are exactly three kinds of convex hexagons that can tile a plane, Casey Mann said. One is regular, two irregular, meaning their angles and sides are of di� er-ent sizes.

“It can also be proven that if you have seven sides or more you can’t tile a plane with them. � ey can’t � t around corners,” he said.

It’s possible to tile an ir-regular pentagon, however. It’s just not easy to � gure out the correct pattern.

It also cannot be proven how many di� erent tilings of

pentagons exist, Mann said. � ere might be just 15. � ere might be an in� nite number.

“� e truth is we just don’t know. Pentagons really are the odd one,” he said.

� e � rst � ve pentagonal tilings were discovered in 1918 by a German mathema-tician, Karl Reinhardt. � en Richard Kershner, of Johns Hopkins University, pub-lished a paper in 1968 that identi� ed three more and said that was all of them.

A� er an article appeared in Scienti� c American magazine in 1975, several people took it as a challenge. One reader named Richard E. James III found a ninth pattern, and Marjorie Rice, an amateur with only a high

school diploma, found four more a couple of years later.

� e 14th pattern was found in 1982 by Rolf Stein of the University of Dortmund, Germany, and that was it for the next 33 years.

� e latest discovery came about with advances in so� -ware modeling.

� e Manns proved a mathematical theorem that showed there were a � nite number of symmetrical forms in a tiling pattern.

� at emphasis on sym-metry was the key, Mann said. If a pattern composed of multiple irregular pentagons could be shown to be sym-metrical, then it could tile the plane.

“� at told us we could

write a computer program to search for them,” he said.

Von Derau, who now works as a programmer and researcher for Viavi Solutions in Bothell, said he was � nish-ing his degree in math and needed an elective credit.

His choices were geometry or independent research supervised by Mann.

“Because I didn’t want to take geometry, I asked him if he had a research project he needed help with,” Von De-rau said. “It’s kind of ironic.”

� e program, running on a University of Washington computer cluster, found the tiling pattern in a few hours’ time, Mann said. � e sym-metrical pattern is composed of 12 identical irregular pentagons.

Finding more patterns — if they exist at all — will require searching for much more complex symmetries, and that’s going to take much more computing power and time.

“We’re basically reducing the problem to the only way you’re going to � nd a new one is if it’s really exotic,” Mann said.

“� ere might end up being an in� nite number of types, there might be 22 types,” he said.

� e Manns soon hope to submit a paper on their discovery to ArXiv, an online scienti� c database.

UW Bothell associate profs, student find rare geometric pattern

University of Washington Bothell campus associate professors of mathematics Jennifer McCloud-Mann and Casey Mann discovered a new geometrical pattern of irregular pentagons that could have applications in crystallography, self-assembly machines ... or bathroom tiles. GENNA MARTIN, The Herald

to limit campaign contribu-tion amounts. The only limit to Super PACs is they cannot donate directly to candi-dates, though that doesn’t stop them from being able to spend money for candidates.

Bothell is not a stranger to PACs.

“I don’t work for any of my contributors and [I] don’t depend on them for business. Although I am supported by the owners of the Ranch Drive-In, I can’t envision how that could be a conflict of interest - except with my diet,” said John Lee, general election candidate for Bothell City Council position 6. “I have a lot of supporters in the business community in Bothell, some of them have given modest contributions. I have raised less than $2,000 [in the primary] and am focused on bringing Bothell together through community events, not big money.”

Rosalind Gorc, Tim Ottersburg and John Lee have taken donations from the Affordable Housing Council, a PAC for the Master Builders Association. According to the Affordable

Housing Council website, they are a PAC that ensures issues that directly impact the homebuilding industry, such as impacting critical areas regulations, impact fees, permitting processes and more.

“The endorsement and contribution came with no promises from me, only a willingness to listen and be respectful, as I have promised to each and every citizen and business I have met,” Ottersburg said. “My largest business contribu-tor is Alexa’s Cafe on Main Street, which I am very proud of. I support small businesses in Bothell that serve our community and want Bothell to grow the right way. I appreci-ate their support in return.”

Furthermore, the National Women’s Political Caucus, a PAC supporting women who seek public office with recruiting, training and financial contributions, has also donated money to Davina Duerr.

“These entities want their viewpoints to be heard. I believe that all viewpoints should be heard; the prob-lem occurs when PAC’s

issues are ‘represented,’” said Duerr, general election can-didate for Bothell’s position 6. “The Women’s Political Caucus gave me $250 and does not lobby for business causes or money making decisions. Their main goal is to support women running for office as well as afford-able housing, child care and senior care.”

After the Citizen’s United decision made by the Su-preme Court in 2010, any non-profit or for-profit or-ganization or business entity may donate to any election

campaign - basically giving corporations the same legal rights as people and are able to choose their

candidate with for-profit dollars.

This, too, has impacted Bothell elections.

James McNeal has busi-ness contributions from Brink Property Manage-ment in Bellevue ($950), Star Roofing in Snohomish ($500), and two contribu-tions from Exterior Stucco in Lynnwood ($405 each). Though, Sen. Rosemary McAuliffe also donated to his campaign to the tune of $100.

“We should be open and transparent about the reason they are contribut-ing and ensure they have no impact on our community,” said James McNeal, Bothell City Council candidate for position 4. “If the corporate entities are lobbying for decisions or have influence in our community [it would create a conflict of interest].”

Other candidates have chosen a less costly way to campaign. Both Maryanna Price and Nadia Mustafa have chosen to have ‘mini-campaigns,’ which do not require electronic filing of reports for donations or expenditures when less than $5,000 is raised and spent. As of the end of the primary elections, they still had not submitted their financial reports.

If the primary is any indication, there will be a lot more money flowing into Bothell general elections come this November.

UW Bothell presents its Fall Convergence

The University of Wash-ington Bothell will produce its Fall Convergence event from 1-7 p.m. on Oct. 2 at the North Creek Events Center in Bothell.

This Fall Convergence will explore the written arts as these cross over into performance. Performance usually entails the occur-rence of an event which may be an author reading or an orchestrated staging.

While for some perfor-mance always assumes that the event is pre-planned and rehearsed, for others it is the very presentness of the act that counts as performance. In these in-stances, writers and artists may in fact rue anything pre-planned or rehearsed.

While there are certainly solo performances, many performances are collabora-tive.

In this Fall Convergence, organizers will address how the written arts traditionally have crossed over into the realm of performance and will take up new conversa-tions and edges of what performance may entail.

To view the schedule, visit http://www.uwb.edu/mfa/program-events/fall-convergence.

TSUGA in Bothell to feature new exhibit “Beauty Everywhere”

This Fall, local water-colorist Charlene Collins Freeman will be featured in a solo exhibition at TSUGA Fine Art & Fram-ing, located on Main Street in downtown Bothell. “Beauty Everywhere” will begin with a public recep-tion from 5-8 p.m. tonight. The exhibit will continue through Oct. 24.

“Beauty Everywhere” is a celebration of the small things in life - a humming-bird alighting on a flower, the reflections in a shop window, the gentle cascade of early morning light filter-ing through an old Euro-pean alleyway.

Freeman’s art is inspired by the quiet moments so easily overlooked in the melange of everyday business. By uncovering the sacred quality in these stolen, in-between seconds, the artist is able to preserve what she believes are the snippets of life that make up who we really are as people. In reference to the vignette of Italian life at dawn that she captures in Wake Up Siena,

“Painting [that mo-ment] has immortalized

it for me and allows me to share with others the magic of everyday moments,” Freeman said. “Beauty is everywhere.”

Freeman uses photogra-phy to capture spontaneous moments which she saves as source material for future paintings. She will snap several images of anything that interests her and then chooses which captures draw the strongest emo-tional response.

“I don’t overthink what I want to paint,” Freeman said. “When I see some-thing that I have a strong emotional response to, that’s all I need to decide to paint it.”

Freeman’s paintings are marked by a stillness that seems to freeze her subjects in a single instant. Rather than focusing on the fleet-

ing nature of these perfect moments, the artist defies the constant flux of the modern world and instead precisely preserves them for her audiences to ponder at will.

Freeman was honored by the city of Kenmore in 2010 when the city com-missioned her to make a painting in dedication of the city’s new City Hall and again in 2013 when the city purchased another watercolor for its Public Art Collection.

Freeman teaches draw-ing, painting, and the joy of sketchbooking at Arts Umbrella, Tsuga Fine Art & Framing in Bothell, Casca-dia Community College in Bothell, Edmonds Com-munity College, Everett Community College, and SilverKite Community Arts

in Lake City. She also leads sketchbook workshops around the world.

Kenmore to host community workshop on Sept. 22

The city of Kenmore will host a community workshop for its Imagine Kenmore: Connect more, play more initiative from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. on Sept. 22 at Kenmore City Hall.

City staff invites residents to join the community conversation about parks,

recreation, and walking and bicycling facilities in Kenmore. Refreshments will be provided and guests are urged to RSVP on the Facebook event page.

Those who cannot at-tend the workshop can participate online at www.ImagineKenmore.com and use the interactive mapping tool to comment on pro-posed projects or suggest their own ideas.

Kenmore City Hall is lo-cated at 18120 68th Ave NE.
