Lake Washington In-stitute of Technolo-gy’s funeral program

will be featured in a new TV series on mummies, including one displayed in an iconic Seattle store.

Last Wednesday, a � lm crew with Saloon Media � lmed inside the funeral lab while interviewing Jon Austin, an American em-balming and funeral home historian from Illinois for “Mummies Alive!,” a new international television series scheduled to debut in 2015.

For the episode, Austin explored the history of embalming and the various tools embalm-ers might have used on “Sylvester,” a mummy featured in Seattle’s Ye Olde Curiosity Shop. � e shop has been in business since 1889.

Allegedly, the mummy was preserved in the desert approximately 120 years ago, though Austin said arsenic, a formerly common chemical used for embalming, was found

on him.“We have to make

sure our research is 100 percent accurate and our experts are leaders in their � eld,” said Mick Grogan, director for Saloon Media. “� at’s why we’re delight-ed to have the opportunity to � lm the unique facili-ties at Lake Washington’s funeral service lab.”

Modern embalming

� rst started in the 1840s and was perfected during the Civil War, according to Austin. Although the chemicals in the embalm-ing � uids have changed, such as the modern use of formaldehyde, the basic process by which a body is embalmed has essentially remained the same.

For example, modern

The objections by the parents’ association of a Kirkland ballet acad-emy and some Kirkland residents to a microbrew-ery opening up near the academy disappeared almost as quickly as they appeared.

Chainline Brewing’s co-owner, Scott Holm, reported that a positive meeting with the parents’ association for the ballet academy resulted in the majority of objections by parents being dropped, though he said some have still not warmed to the idea.

� e controversy started when the ballet parents learned that a microbrew-ery intended to open in the complex on 6th Street South. Among these concerns were limited parking and the possibil-ity of intoxicated patrons attempting to drive out of the parking lot. Also op-posed to the brewery was part-time owner of AMC Kickboxing, Christina Hume.

� e city started to receive emails in late July, and the Washington State Liquor Control Board (WSLCB) noti� ed Scott Holm and his wife and co-owner Michelle on July 31 that they received 17 letters objecting to the microbrewery. In order to receive a license, they needed to write a state-ment explaining why they should be approved over those objections.

Prior to receiving the WSLCB letter, Scott Holm wrote a blog post on Chainline Brewing’s

Despite initial concerns about funding, Kirkland Summerfest 2014 proved to be another success last weekend thanks to last-minute sponsorships.

� e festival involves performances, activities, exhibitions, dancing, com-

edy, circus and street arts, and family entertainment. Established in partnership with the Kirkland Down-town Association, Kirkland Summerfest was � rst held in 2011.

Scott Becker, the vice president for the Rotary Club of Kirkland and one of the organizers, said the two-day event drew around

35-40,000 people. “� e weather was good,

the music was outstanding,” he said. “Everyone seemed to have a great time.”

Back in July, organizers were struggling to � nd a way to acquire more funding for Summerfest, which at the time had raised $75,000 compared to the $130,000 desired. � e shortage of

funds ultimately required them to make cuts, includ-ing the stage for live band performances, as well as food vendors and the kids’ area.

However, Becker said they received a � urry of small personal dona-tions, and more corporate sponsors helped to bring the total close to $100,000.

Additionally, the Fish Frolic sold numerous art pieces for $5,000 each, and the Duck Dash raised $40,000, which will go to various projects.

Becker said they hope to have more food vendors next year and plan to keep the beer garden near the pavilion, which he said helped make it popular with attendees.

Kirkland resident and Olympic gold medalist Hope Solo was back in court Monday for a hear-ing at the Kirkland Justice Center in connection with her arrest for domestic violence at the beginning of summer.

Solo was arrested in June a� er a family argument turned violent at her half-sister's Kirkland home. She later pleaded not guilty. � e trial date was scheduled for Nov. 4 during the court appearance Monday at the Kirkland Justice Center.

"I love my family dearly," Solo wrote on Facebook in an apology just a� er the in-cident. "We, like all families, have our challenges but my sincere hope is that we are able to resolve this situation as a family. Adversity has always made us stronger and I know this situation will be no di� erent."

Solo was the goalkeeper for last two U.S. Olympic women's soccer teams and

played for the University of Washington. She also plays for the Seattle Reign of the National Women's Soccer League and was forced to miss its game in New York on Sunday.

� is is not the � rst time that police have been called to an incident involving Solo in Kirkland. Po-lice were called to Solo's Holmes Point home in No-vember 2012. � e police re-port for the incident stated that an altercation between eight di� erent people took place at the home during a house party and a stun gun was used. Stevens was arrested in the case but was never charged.

Trial for Kirkland resident Hope Solo set for Nov. 4

embalming involves removing the organs and � uids from the chest cavity before the embalming � uids are injected. With Sylvester, however, his or-gans remained preserved. Additionally, an incision was found in his abdomen, though Austin stated that it is not necessarily the work of the embalmers, as the incision is does not appear to have been made by a trocar, a medical tool used in embalming.

Despite the necessity of dealing with deceased persons, Lauren Budlow, the program’s director, said it’s not the dead students

have di� culty with but the deceased’s relatives, as they o� en have to work with numerous families in a single day who are responding to the death from a variety of circum-stances and backgrounds.

� e Kirkland college’s funeral program is the only certi� ed program in the state and one of four on the entire West Coast. � e lab has multiple tables, as well as refrigerated lockers for storage, and mannequins to practice facial reconstruction and hair styling.

� e program’s two-year Associate of Applied Science degree prepares

students for employment as funeral service directors or professional embalmers. As part of the program, they learn not only how to embalm, but the practical and business aspects of the industry. Because funer-als typically occur within three days of the person’s death, Budlow said funeral home directors have to be able to respond quickly to family requests for the type of funeral and the unique preparations for the body.

[ MUMMY from page 1]Taxable sales increase 4.9 percent

� e state’s taxable retail sales totals grew to $27.3 billion in the � rst quarter of 2014, Jan. 1 through March

31, recording a 4.9 percent increase over the same pe-riod in 2013. Retail trade, a subset of total taxable retail sales, rose 2.4 percent to $12.3 billion.

� e results come from a quarterly report released by the Washington State

Department of Revenue of taxable retail sales by indus-try. � e report compares the � rst quarters of 2014 to 2013, which equalizes any seasonal e� ects of consum-er purchasing habits.

Taxable sales were up in many sectors including: construction of buildings – 6.1 percent; furniture and home furnishings – 6.4 percent; new and used auto sales – 6.9 percent; and e-commerce and mail order sales – 18.9 percent.

Some sectors saw a small decline, including depart-ment store purchases, which dropped 9.5 percent during the � rst three months of 2013.

[ Brewery from page 1] ClarificationKirkland residents

were among those who wrote letters to the Kirk-land City Council, Liquor Control Board and local media outlets in protest of the planned Everest neighborhood micro-brewery.

Although they are still waiting for confirma-tion from the WSLCB, the dropped objections means the Holms will no longer be required to write

a statement, according to an Aug. 6 news update on Chainline Brewing’s site.

“We look forward to a positive working relation-ship not only with the In-ternational Ballet Academy but all of our neighbors, businesses and individuals alike,” the update reads. “We would like to thank all those who spoke out on the matter, and specifi-cally those who advocated discussion and diplomacy, which subsequently led to a favorable resolution for all involved.”

The Washington state 2014 primary election took place Aug. 5 and there are very few surprises in the results for Kirkland races. The results, however, maybe a barometer for the general election.

The most hotly contested race was to see who, out of the six challeng-ers, would take on incumbent U.S. Rep. Suzan DelBene in the 1st Congressional District dur-ing the general election. To no one’s surprise, DelBene is garnering the top spot in the top-two primary with 51 percent of the vote. Two Republicans lead the rest of the pack, as Microsoft engineer Pedro Celis is beating biochemist Robert J. Sutherland by a little more than 900 votes, 16.41-15.63 percent. In early returns Sutherland held a narrow

lead but it swung in Celis’ direction late last week. In a distant fourth place is John Orlinski with 10 percent.

In the closest of the primary battles, 1st District Rep. Luis Moscoso (D-Mountlake Terrace) is lead-ing his Republican challeng-er, Edward J. Barton (R-Mill

Creek), 44-43 percent. But a third candidate, Democrat Dave Griffin, is pulling in 13 percent of

the vote. Griffin will likely not make it to

the general election. Rep. Derek Stanford is running unopposed. In the race for Rodney Tom’s 48th District Senate seat, State Rep. Cyrus Habib (D-Bellevue) is leading Michelle Darnell (R-Bellevue), 64-36 percent. State Rep. Ross Hunter (D-Medina) is beating Bill Hirt (R-Bellevue) for posi-tion 1 in the 48th District, 70-30 percent. The race for position 2 is also a 70-30 percent affair with former

Kirkland mayor Joan Mc-Bride (D-Kirkland) leading Tim Turner (L-Bellevue). The two candidates are run-ning for the seat vacated by Habib. No other candidates are running in these races and all will advance to the general election.

The races in the 45th District are a bit closer, as State Sen. Andy Hill (R-Redmond) leads challenger Matt Isenhower (D-Red-mond), 54-46 percent. The race for position 1 in the 45th has incumbent Rep. Roger Goodman (D-Kirk-land) leading Joel Hussey (R-Redmond), 54-46 percent. Former Kirkland mayor Rep. Larry Springer (D-Kirkland) leads his chal-lenger, Brendan Woodward (R-Woodinville), for posi-tion 2, 56-44 percent. No other candidates are run-ning in these races and all will advance to the general election.

The primary election must be certified by Aug. 19.

Primary results nearly complete, Celis leads sutherland to challenge DelBene

reminded not to drip and drive

The “Don’t Drip and Drive” program puts residents in the driver’s seat for finding an affordable fix to vehicle leaks. Drivers can take their vehicle to a participating repair shop for a free and easy visual leak inspection (a diagnos-tic service valued at up to $80) through September. If a leak is found, the driver will receive a coupon for

10 percent off service (up to $50) to fix the problem. The coupon will expire at the end of September 2014. For more information and a complete list of participat-ing locations, visit www.fixcarleaks.org.

To take advantage of the free visual inspection for ve-hicle leaks, visit one of these participating repair shops in Kirkland during August or September 2014:

• All Wheel Drive Auto, 8410 120th Ave NE, (425) 828-3600

• My Auto Pro, 11902 124th Ave NE, (425) 821-2244

• Summers Automotive Service, 13205 NE 124th St #B1, (425) 823-5214

Every year more than seven million quarts of mo-tor oil drips out of vehicles onto streets and parking lots and makes its way to lakes, rivers, streams and the Puget Sound. By fixing leaks, participants can help reduce this pollution and extend the life of their vehicle.

New microbrewery makes me question city’s decision making

In the Aug. 1 Kirkland Reporter, there are two letters discussing the location of a micro-brewery in a complex that also has children oriented activities. One supports the city of Kirkland’s approval of the location because it may enhance the down time for the parents while waiting for the kids. The other opposes it because alcohol will be consumed at the store which could endanger the youngsters.

In my view, the decision by the city is just another example of incongruous thinking by persons who do not appreciate the circum-stances or the welfare of the citizens they are supposed to protect. Perhaps they did not have the chance for preschool education. But to license a bar where children are close by makes less mind numbing sense than denying a marijuana store in the same location.

The marijuana store, where customers buy pot and consume it elsewhere by decree of the city, would have to be a zillion feet from the children’s activities. It makes me won-der whether they use the old fashioned dart board or a new electronic one in city hall to reach licensing decisions.Edward Bell, Kirkland

Kirkland cat lovers beware

Our beloved cat of 18-plus years was taken from us by a coyote. We live in the south

Rose Hill area of Kirkland and in broad day-light a coyote took our cat’s life away from us. I happened to look out the window and saw a coyote with a cat in his mouth - little did I know it was our cat. Thankfully my husband was able to chase the coyote down and he dropped our beloved cat. But it was too late - he was gone. Our cat rarely left our yard - that’s where he was attacked. Saddest day of my life! I don’t want judgement on allowing my cat to be an indoor/outdoor cat. I grew up with several indoor/outdoor cats that lived 20-plus years. I just want people to be aware. Even though we are in the ‘city,’ there are still predators out there.Mary Holland, Kirkland

Tougher DUI laws neededWe constantly see in the news where a

driver, high on marijuana or under the influ-ence of alcohol, hits a pedestrian or another car, killing someone. They are charged with driving under the influence or vehicular homicide. They get a few years in prison and then are free to live their lives.

But the person they killed is dead.So if a person kills another person

with a knife, baseball bat or a gun, should we call it weaponry homicide and let them off after a few years in prison? I think not. A person is dead

and any of the above weapons were used irresponsibly, dangerously or inten-

tionally to harm or kill a person.We are too soft on those who kill some-

one due to uncontrolled use of the weapon

of choice. A vehicle is just as dangerous a weapon as anything else. It may not be pre-meditated murder, but it is just as deadly.

It is time to toughen the laws of drunken and drugged driving, and we need to press our legislators to toughen the consequences.Larry Brickman, Bellevue

Conservative ideologyConservative ideology is based on protect-

ing rich people from having to pay for the benefits they reap from government: peace at home, government contracts, stable markets, laws, infrastructure, an educated work force, research, potable water, public health, etc.

Many corporations (including Boeing, Mi-crosoft, Apple, and GE) pay little or no state or federal taxes; they shift income overseas or to low-tax states.

Conservatives wasted trillions on corrupt, disastrous wars and weaponry, but don’t want to pay for it.

Conservatives are happy to pay subsidies to corporate farmers and Big Oil, but they’re ea-ger to cut food stamps, crush unions, blame teachers, dismantle public transit, deny sci-ence and restrict the vote.

They won’t raise the minimum wage so the working class can earn a living wage. In Washington state the poor and the middle class pay a higher percent of their income in state taxes than do the rich, because of our regressive sales tax. Hence wealth and power concentrate in fewer hands.Don Smith, Bellevue

Not long ago the Kiwanis Club of Kirkland was blessed by the presence of a very special man at our weekly

meeting who spoke about his life-long pas-sion: Michael Mathis is the founder and CEO of the Burned Children’s Recovery Founda-tion (BCRF).

The foundation supports burned children and their families with education, emotional support, medical expenses, airfare, lodging, a 24 hour call center - basically, anything and everything that is needed. Michael is very well-qualified to run the foundation. In 1967, he was living a normal life with dreams like any other child. He had just received an all-star award in the Snohomish County little league and dreamed of playing professional baseball. When Michael was staying over-night at a friend’s house, his friend poured gasoline on a camp fire. Michael was burned over 64 percent of his body after the gas can exploded.

Michael states: “After years of surgeries and negative reactions to my scars I learned that I had been given a unique gift and have the opportunity to affect peoples’ lives just by meeting them. I now have the opportu-nity to share my wisdom with the 280,000 children that are burned in America every year.”

With the help of many dedicated volun-teers and specially trained individuals, the BCRF provide unique opportunities for

burned children and their families.They have a home called The Phoenix

House, a 10-bed recovery center for recluse and high trauma children struggling in their recovery. They also run Camp Phoe-nix which is a recovery camp where burned children go and have a week of fun and emotional support without fear of stares or negative reactions to their scars. The BCRF philosophy is that you are beautiful on the inside. The children come away from camp with lifelong friendships and a strong emo-tional support system to assist as they prog-ress through their lives. If you would like to know more about BCRF please go to their website. This is a wonderfully well managed

foundation which impacts hundreds of chil-dren and their families each year. Visit their website at www.burnedchildrenrecovery.org.

The Kirkland Kiwanis Foundation is hon-ored to be able to contribute to such an im-pactful program. If you would like to know more about the Kiwanis Club of Kirkland or the Kirkland Kiwanis Foundation, a 501(c)3 charitable organization, please visit our web-site at www.kirkland.kiwanis.org or come to one of our weekly meetings at 12 p.m. every Wednesday at Hector’s downtown.

Kathleen Maag Stone Kathleen Maag Stone passed away

Friday, August 1, 2014 in Evergreen Hospital with her family around her.

(Steve) of Quincy, Washington; Doug Maag (Terrie) of Vale, Oregon, Maureen Maag of Portland, Oregon and Brian Maag (Kathryn) of Lake Oswego, Oregon. Many of her aunts were nurses, so Kathleen followed them to the University of Portland to nursing school, graduating cum laude in 1980.

Kathleen started nursing at Group Health Hospital in Redmond. She moved to University of Washington Hospital ICU/CCU . In 1983, she joined Providence Hospital in Everett, then Providence Seattle ICU.

A Victor, Mont. woman has changed her plea

to guilty for breaking into a Kirkland man’s house and attempting to install spyware on his computer.

Brenda Kay Jurgens, 57, will now face sentencing for first degree crimi-nal trespass and second degree computer trespass as a part of a plea bargain. Jurgens has been recom-mended for a sentence of 364 days in jail with all but 30 days suspended.

She originally pleaded not guilty in May.

According to the court documents, Jurgens broke into her ex-boyfriend’s Kirk-land home in the 3100 block of 8th Ave. W on April 30 while he was out of town.

The victim’s adult son was checking his father’s residence at around 9 p.m. when he allegedly saw Jurgens inside and called the police. When the police arrived, they found Jurgens on the victim’s computer. When questioned, she claimed she heard the victim had

been arrested in Montana and was checking on his dog. She also claimed to have entered the house using a garage door opener in her vehicle. When the police asked what she was doing at the computer, Jurgens alleg-edly said, “Looking to see what was up on email,” the documents continue.

After she was advised of her rights, Jurgens al-legedly admitted she was in the process of install-ing a spyware software on the victim’s computer and produced a five-page

document of screenshots on how to install spyware that could not be detect-ed. Jurgens had moved out of the victim’s house in January and also filed a temporary protection order against him out of the Ravalli County Sher-iff ’s Office in Hamilton, Mont., according to court documents.

Jurgens faced a full year in jail and a $50,000 fine if convicted on the original charges on which she pleaded not guilty. She will be sentenced on Aug. 22.

Reporter newspapers

Cheryl Manao and her son, Justin, sport the same facial expres-

sions and in� ection in their voices when reminiscing about when 2014 USA World Cup player DeAndre Yedlin honed his skills with the Cross� re Premier Soc-cer Club, which serves the Northshore area.

� eir eyes open wide and smiles � ash across their faces when they excitedly speak about Yedlin.

“He was fast!” said club administrator Cheryl while taking a quick break during the Nike Cross� re Chal-lenge tournament last Friday morning at 60 Acres Park.

Added Justin, 21: “He was so much quicker than everybody else — it didn’t seem real. It was crazy to play against him, and to think where he is now, is all pretty awesome. I just like to tell people that I played against him.”

� at action took place about four years ago, when Yedlin, 21, was on a Cross� re “A” team and Justin played on the “B” squad. Justin noted that going head to head with Yedlin from their center mid-� eld positions was bene� cial at the time and in the long run. Playing against the future national team player and Seattle Sounders FC member made Justin work harder and paved the way for his career at Paci� c Lutheran University.

“It’s always fun to watch

any of the kids and to see them grow up and see where they’re at,” said Cheryl, a Kirkland resident whose son will be a senior in college this fall.

Other notable Cross� re male alumni include Ingle-moor High graduate Antho-ny Arena, George John, Ellis McLoughlin, Kelyn Rowe and Preston Zimmerman, all of whom either currently or formerly played professional soccer.

On the female side, East-lake High graduate Lindsay Elston currently plays for the Houston Dash of the National Women’s Soccer League. Other top female Cross� re graduates include Sarah Martinez (Redmond High and Cedar Park Chris-tian) and Meredith Teague, both former Seattle Paci� c University players. Sierra Bilginer, a 2014 Redmond High graduate, will begin her University of Arizona career this fall.

On the Cross� re coaching front, Bernie James, a former professional player, is the current coaching director. Northwest soccer legends Alan Hinton and Jimmy Ga-briel were former coaching directors.

Cross� re, which is af-� liated with the 46-year-old Lake Washington Youth Soccer Association, serves about 1,300 players from all across Washington and even players from Portland and Alaska, according to assistant coaching director Steve Crum, a former Cross� re player who attended Juanita

High and currently resides in Kirkland. � e club — which is part of the US Develop-ment Academy for the boys and Elite Clubs National League for the girls — sports teams in the U10 to U18 age divisions.

“We want to provide a place for really committed soccer players to challenge themselves at the highest level possible in the country,” said Crum, noting that play-ers also learn about team-work and goal setting, which they can apply to soccer and their lives.

Cheryl Manao, who has had three children kick through the Cross� re system, added: “Staying active and being outside and refocusing a lot of that energy I think improves their school skills, as well, because they have an outlet that helps them on their o� time.”

“� e whole competitive atmosphere I think was the best part of it. It helped me prepare for college soccer more than anything,” said Justin Manao, who played with Cross� re for seven years. He noted that his top experience was playing for the U17 “B” squad that knocked Cross� re’s “A” team out of the state cup.

Two years ago, Justin played in three World Cup-qualifying matches for the American Samoa national team, which won one match and is featured in the docu-mentary “Next Goal Wins.” Justin — whose grandfa-ther is Samoan and whose uncle is the team’s technical

director — had the winning assist in the team’s � rst-ever victory.

Jaimee Farrell began her Cross� re career in the U11 program and is headed to a higher soccer echelon as a member of the Stony Brook University (New York) team this fall.

“It’s been awesome. I’ve got to travel all over the U.S. to

play. It’s opened up so many opportunities for me (to visit colleges),” said Farrell, 17, a Bellevue resident and In-terlake High graduate. “And it’s super hard because it’s at such a high level, but we have great coaches.”

Her top Cross� re memory was when her team rebound-ed from a 7-1 loss to one squad during the regular

season and beat them 2-1 en route to � nishing third in the nation.

Farrell also played in her share of matches at the Nike Cross� re Challenge, which runs two weekends each summer in Redmond. � is year, Cross� re’s biggest tour-ney drew about 540 boys and girls U9 to U19 teams from Washington, California, Utah, Idaho, Alaska, Oregon, Canada and Hawaii. Teams dribbled away on 29 � elds — a combination of full and modi� ed soccer pitches.

“Part of me is jealous because we didn’t have this when we were kids, but it’s great that we can provide it and it keeps growing year a� er year,” said Crum, who coaches three Cross� re girls teams and formerly coached at the University of Idaho and Texas Tech University. “Our goal is to make this not one of the top tournaments in the country, but the top tournament in the country.”

Aside from the tourna-ments, Cheryl Manao said Cross� re shines with its camps, fundraising auc-tion and friendship among coaches, players and families. Cross� re recently reached out to soccer players in Guy-ana and donated more than 200 pounds of soccer gear.

“I feel like we’re one big family,” she said. “It’s a small soccer community in the scheme of things and people help each other. You’re around it a lot and your kids feel part of something and I think it’s important. It’s more than just a game.”

Crossfire prepares youth for college, pro ball — and life

Dr. Paul Krause

In 1994, when Elizabeth Wurtzel wrote “Prozac Na-tion,” an autobiographical account of her struggles with severe depression, which was later adapted into a feature � lm under the same title, her story was considered an extreme case of a troubled life. What she described then, however, was already a wide-spread phenom-enon that has now morphed into a national malaise and beyond.

Antidepressants and painkillers rank among the most commonly prescribed drugs in the United States today. In 2011, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) National Center for Health Statistics published a report that identi� ed about 11 percent of the American public as antidepressant users, a 400 percent increase since the 1980s when previous surveys were taken.

Worldwide, consumption of antidepressants has been dramatically on the rise over the past decade, and there are no signs of abating. On the contrary, the pharmaceutical industry predicts ever-in-creasing demands in the U.S. and globally.

According to the CDC

report, people who take an-tidepressants do so not only to treat depression but also anxiety and other disorders in response to stress. In fact, about 8 percent of those taking antidepressant drugs had no current symptoms of depression at all.

Women between the ages of 40 and 59 make up the

largest group of antidepressant drug users – about 23 percent. Females in general are more likely to take such medications than males; whites do it in greater numbers

than other ethnicities; most users stay on antidepressants for two or more years; less than half ever seek profes-sional help in form of hospi-talization or counseling.

Experts have o� ered a wide range of explanations for the growing demand for psychotherapeutic drugs. � e heightened economic struggles over the last few years have added substan-tially to the stress levels vast parts of the population are exposed to. In the media, pharmaceuticals of all kinds, including antidepressants, are aggressively marketed, and many insurance plans cover them.

� ere is also suspicion that many doctors tend to over-

diagnose when it comes to psychological disorders, even in cases where they appear to be temporary and mild in nature.

� e truth is that antide-pressant drugs are not harm-less and can cause a number of unpleasant side e� ects, among them nausea, weight gain, loss of sexual desire and erectile dysfunction, insom-nia, fatigue, agitation, suicidal thoughts, and even greater anxiety.

Experts recommend to switch between di� erent types of antidepressant drugs if debilitating symptoms persist, but they also warn not to take such steps without consulting one’s physician.

Generally speaking, taking medications against depres-sion or anxiety should not always be the � rst measure to � nd relief. A health-pro-moting lifestyle that includes eating a balanced diet, regular exercise, and enough sleep can be very helpful in dealing with many disturbances, both of body and mind. � at does not mean to underestimate their seriousness, but at least it can provide a much-need-ed foundation for recovery.

Do you have tight muscles that cause pain or tension

headaches? If you are looking for an alternative pain relief, you may need to check out cupping. Cup-ping is one of tools used in Chinese medicine, along with acupuncture, to help

the body heal and reduce symptoms.

What is cupping ex-actly?

You may have heard about cupping in the news or have experienced it in acupuncture treatments. � e art of cupping involves using a glass or plastic cups

to provide vacuum suction when applied on the skin. Cupping, unlike massage, uses negative pressure to release rigid tissues, drain excess � uids, loosen adhe-sions, and bring blood � ow to skin and muscles. Cup-ping also releases lactic acid and stagnation that’s deep

in the muscle layer. It works to increase circulation and decrease in� ammation deep in the tissues.

Bene� ts of Cupping � erapy

• Releases lactic acid in muscles

• Improves circulation, oxygenation, and detoxi� -

cation of blood• Promotes relaxation of

tight muscles• Soothes muscle spasmsWhat results should I

expect with cupping?Typical cupping treat-

ments are 20-30 minutes. Most patients report imme-diate relief of muscle pain and cupping treatments are recommended once a week for 4-6 weeks, depending on the particular condition be-

ing treated. Due to the suc-tion nature of the cupping, the cups will leave colored pain-less spots (circles) on the area being treated.

The Kirkland host team for the Junior So� ball World Series at Everest

Park lost a heartbreaking game on Tuesday, 2-1, in nine innings.

But the loss came on the heels of a great start for the team from Kirkland, as they � nished pool play 2-2 and quali� ed for the champion-ship tournament.

� e team’s start is a good sign for a young squad led by just two players with previous World Series experience.

“� is is a very young and very green team,” Kirkland coach Steve Bivens said. “If you talk to anyone at the tournament they all say that the team’s improvement is extraordinary.”

Kirkland defeated Canada 8-4 during its � rst game of pool play on Sunday.

� e � nal game of the opening day of play saw no lead changes but a tense bottom of the third inning as Kirkland nearly gave up a � ve-run lead.

� e host team began the game by slapping the ball around for two big � rst-

inning runs. Emma Pruss picked up two RBIs with a single to center � eld.

Kirkland extended the lead with three runs during the top of the third. A double by Anastasia Kotsakis scored Tori Bivens. � en, a Mya Schaaf single scored Kotsakis and Pruss.

But Canada came back strong with four runs of its own during the bottom of the inning to cut the lead to just one run, 5-4.

Kirkland put the game out of reach with an unearned

run and a sacri� ce � y by Biv-ens during the fourth inning. � e host team would push the lead back to four runs as Olivia Rudolph singled home Pruss during the � � h inning.

Bivens slammed the door on Canada from the pitching circle with three strong in-nings to complete the victory for the host team. It was the second loss on the day for Canada, which lost to Central to open play, 7-6.

� e host team survived its second game of pool play Monday, defeating the

Philippines representing the Asia-Paci� c region, 7-4.

Bivens threw a complete game and struck out nine but also came up big at the plate, going 2-for-4 with two RBI and a run scored. Kotsakis was also 2-for-4 with two RBI during the contest.

� e game looked like it would be a complete pitchers’ duel with the teams going scoreless through the four innings, as the squads com-bined for just four hits.

Kirkland took control dur-ing the top of the � � h inning

with three runs. A � elder’s choice resulted in the � rst run of the game for the host team and a Bivens base hit to le� � eld to score Rudolph from third.

A Kotsakis single scored Abby Anthis on a close play at home. � e throw from the out� elder struck Anthis on the elbow just before she crossed the plate.

But just as fast as Kirkland took the lead, the Asia-Paci� c team tied it at 3-3 during the bottom of the inning.

� e scoring continued as Kirkland took the lead back on a Lindsay Allen � elder’s choice RBI. But once again the pendulum swung back to Asia-Paci� c, as the Philip-pines tied the game for a third time on an RBI triple.

� e seventh inning would prove de� nitive for Kirkland. A Bivens double scoring An-this gave the host team a 5-4 lead. Kotsakis singled to cen-ter� eld scoring Bivens and then Taylor Sheldon’s � elder’s choice put the seventh and � nal run on the board for Kirkland.

� e o� ensive output the team experienced during the � rst two contests was not expected to be its strength.

“I am pleasantly surprised,” Steve Bivens said. “O� ense is contagious. We have had some great clutch hitting and when things happen to us, we are able to stop the bleeding.”

Kirkland lost its third game of the World Series to the Southeast team 1-0 on Tuesday morning.

� e Southeast team was led by starting pitcher Nicole Rodriguez, who raked up 18 strikeouts, gave up just one hit and no walks.

� e only runner to cross home plate started out as a walk. But that runner eventu-ally came around to score on a passed ball.

Bivens also threw well, col-lecting 13 strikeouts and also only giving up one hit. Bivens was the only Kirkland player to reach base on a hit.

� e Kirkland team is at-tempting to reach the � nals of the tournament as they did last year when they became just the second host team to reach the championship game.

“It is just a matter of us taking advantage of opportu-nities,” Steve Bivens said.

� e � nals will be played on tomorrow at Everest Park and broadcast on ESPN News.

Kirkland host team qualifies for championship bracket of World Series

Kirkland’s Abby Anthis scores on a close play at home, as the throw to the plate struck her on the elbow. MATT PHELPS, Kirkland Reporter

Sen. Andy Hill passes $500,000 fundraising mark

State Sen. Andy Hill (R-Redmond) passed the fun-draising mark of $500,000 in his campaign for re-election.

“I’m extremely humbled by the amount of sup-port I’ve received from this commu-nity,” Hill said. “My passion for service is resonating with voters and they are showing their support in a dramatic way. I made promises to change the way Olympia works and I’m proud to be recognized for those results.”

Hill began his campaign in May by raising $100,000 at his re-election kicko� and now stands as the � rst to reach the half million fundraising mark before the primary election. Hill has more than 1,000 individual contributions.

Hill, a PTA dad and soccer coach, was � rst elected in 2010 and is currently Chair-man of the Senate Ways and Means Committee and a member of the Senate Early Learning and K-12 Com-mittee. He lives in Redmond with his wife and three children.

LWIT president returns to the White House

Lake Washington Institute of Technology (LWIT) President Dr. Amy Goings returned to the White House

on Tuesday to be a part of a new national approach to college education. Goings’ � rst visit to the White House took place in January.

She joined representa-tives from dozens of colleges across the country as the U.S. Department of Educa-tion unveils the new Center for the Analysis of Postsecondary Readiness.

� e center will use data to design programs to help pre-college stu-dents improve basic literacy. Department of Education o� cials say today’s students must enter the workforce with more than technical skills to succeed. � ey must also master basic reading, writing and math.

Basic literacy combined with advanced technical skill leads to more productive, more engaged and more suc-cessful workers. Washington’s I-BEST program is the poster child for this approach.

Washington pioneered the popular Integrated Basic Education and Skills Training (I-BEST) program. I-BEST uses a team-teaching approach to combine college-readiness classes with regular, credit- bearing job training or academic classes.

I-BEST challenges the traditional notion that students must move through a set sequence of basic education or pre-college (remedial) courses before they can start working on certi� cates or degrees. � e combined teaching method allows students to work on college-level studies right away, clearing multiple levels with one leap.

LWIT’s I-BEST program is one of the best in the state.

“� e beauty of the I-BEST program is that it quickly sets students on a path to success. Our philosophy of learning and doing at the same time leads to more graduates, more jobs and higher wages,” Goings said.

National studies have

shown the future economy requires a combination of skills and some college education. Vice President Joe Biden describes community colleges as the backbone for this and revitalizing the middle class.

“(LWIT) excels at this new approach,” Goings said. “We

welcome students at any phase of life, help them identify and pursue their path and launch them on the road to success.”

LWIT is a publicly funded, state insti-tute of technology with more than 44 programs of study

including certi� cates, associ-ates degrees and bachelor’s degrees. Popular programs include healthcare, transpor-tation logistics, culinary arts and auto repair.

“Our programs gives students a path to a living wage and solid career,” Go-ings said.

Salary Commission seeks public comment

� e Salary Commission is made up of three residents who are appointed for stag-gered terms by the mayor with the approval of the City Council. � e commission is holding a meeting at 5 p.m. on Aug. 19 in the City Hall council chamber to receive public input and discuss possible adjustments to the salaries of the mayor and council members.

� e current salary for the mayor is $1,400 per month and the current salary for council members is $1,100 per month. In addition, the mayor and council members receive life insurance and have the option of having the city pay for their participa-tion, as individuals, in the city’s medical, dental and vision bene� ts programs or, in lieu of receiving medical, dental or vision bene� ts, be paid an allowance of $300

per month.Public comment may be

given at the meeting or may be submitted in writing to: Salary Commission c/o City Attorney’s O� ce at 123 Fi� h Avenue, Kirkland, WA 98033 or email [email protected] prior to 5 p.m. on Aug. 19.

If the Salary Commission elects to change the sala-ries of the mayor and City Council members, it � les the salary adjustment with the city clerk and the adjust-ment automatically becomes e� ective.

For more information, visit the Salary Commission webpage or contact Robin Jenkinson, City Attorney, (425) 587-3031.

Firewood, Fuel& Stoves

NOTICEWashington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (re- ceipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d bu ye r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood.When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle.The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a cord by v isual iz ing a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet . Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.To make a f i r ewood complaint, call 360-902- 1857.

Choosing the proper window material is everything.Even in moderate temperature swings, poor-quality vinyl windows can warp, lose whatever energy efficiency they once had, and invite drafts and leaks.

Significant home improvements are supposed to last, but can you imagine the expense and frustration of replacing your windows a second time, after just a couple of years?

We custom-build our windows from our own patented Fibrex® material. Fibrex® is a

patented wood composite that has the rich, elegant look and feel of finely crafted wood windows without the maintenance. Why did we make our Fibrex® material twice as strong as vinyl? To serve homeowners who only want to replace their windows once.
