Animals on Redmond Ridge in unincorporated King County will soon have a new route to travel across Northeast Novelty Hill Road as the area’s new wildlife crossing nears completion.

Most of the crossing’s main structure is done and construction is expected to be � nished in the next few months.

Rick Brater, a road engineer for King County, said they are looking to be done by the end of the year, but there will still be some planting to do. However, the latter will depend on the weather during the winter, so they may have to wait until spring, he said.

� e 40-foot-wide cross-ing is an elevated bridge stretching 120 feet across Northeast Novelty Hill Road between Redmond

Ridge Drive Northeast and 234th Place Northeast. Like a standard overpass, the bridge has a clearance of 16 and a half feet and Brater said they have le� room underneath in case the two-lane road is widened into four lanes in the future. � ere will also be 1,000 feet of fence on each side of the road — stretching 500 feet in each direction from the bridge — to lead the animals toward the bridge in order to cross the road. � e vegetation that will be planted along the bridge, Brater said, will help create a barrier between the animals and vehicles as well as a seamless, natural transition from one side of the road to the other.

Brater said, thankfully, they haven’t had a major vehicle-animal accident yet, and with more than 20,000 cars on the road each day,

Every Tuesday through Oct. 29, Hugo’s Restaurant at 8110 164th Ave. N.E. in downtown Redmond is hosting a Kitchen Conversation series to give people the opportunity to learn more about Initiative 522.

If passed, the initiative — which will be on the Nov. 5 ballot — notes all food found in grocery stores would be required to have a label on the packag-ing if it contains genetically modi� ed organisms (GMOs). � e measure

would not apply to food on a restau-rant menu.

� e talks at Hugo’s will be at 3:30 p.m. every week and are in partnership with the Yes on 522 campaign.

Teri Sahm, the restaurant’s general manager/food and beverage, said with a restaurant focused on serving organic, gluten-free, soy-free and cow-milk dairy-free dishes, I-522 lined up with their philosophy. She also said it is important for consumers to know about what is in their food and make informed choices.

“We contacted (Yes on 522) because

it’s something we believe in,” Sahm said. “People need to know if some-thing contains GMOs.”

� e talks will be open forums led by Jeremy Zegas, outreach director for Yes on 522, discussing why GMO la-beling is important and what it means to people. People can reserve a space for the events by emailing livehealthy [email protected] or calling (425) 298-4084. Hugo’s will be providing complimentary appetizers and ion-ized/alkalized water at the events.

The Washington State Liquor Control Board (WSLCB) announced today that it will file an emergency rule on Oct. 16 to make a single technical revision to the recreational marijuana rules.

The emergency rule will revise the method of measurement of the 1,000-foot buffer mea-surement between a licensed marijuana busi-ness and an elementary

or secondary school, playground, recreation center or facility, child care center, public park, public transit center, library or arcade where admission is not re-stricted to those age 21 and older. The emergency rule will not affect the Initiative 502 implemen-tation timeline.

Earlier this month, the WSLCB allocated a maxi-mum of 334 retail outlets statewide, including two

in Redmond and 61 in King County overall.

The current proposed rules filed with the code reviser on Sept. 4 state “the distance shall be measured along the most direct route over or across established public walks, streets, or other public passageway between the proposed building/business loca-tion to the perimeter of the grounds.”

The emergency rule

will state: “The distance shall be measured as the shortest straight line distance from the prop-erty line of the licensed premises to the property line of the entities listed below…”

“The current measure-ment mirrors the existing method of measurement between liquor-licensed businesses and schools,” said agency director Rick Garza. “We’ve since learned that this mea-

surement, as it pertains to marijuana, conflicts with federal law. Although the emergency rule won’t be filed until Oct. 16, it is critical that we announce our intentions now so that potential licensees, local government and law enforcement will have clarity and predictability going forward.”

The I-502 timeline includes: public hear-ings on permanent rules in Seattle (Oct. 8) and

Spokane (Oct. 9); board adoption of permanent rules, including the emer-gency rule on the 1,000-foot measurement (Oct. 16); permanent rules be-come effective (Nov. 16); emergency rule on the 1,000-foot measurement becomes effective (Nov. 17); the WSLCB begins taking applications — 30-day window (Nov. 18); and deadline for adopting I-502 rules (Dec. 1).

School diStrict looking for linkS volunteerS

The Lake Washington School District LINKS Program is now recruiting community

volunteers who are interested in helping students be successful in school. Last school

year, 294 volunteers shared their time in

classrooms. They worked with kids on math or reading; they tutored middle school students; or were a lunch buddy to a child who needed

a positive role model. Volunteering through LINKS takes one hour each week.

Sharing time in a school is something co-workers can do together during their lunch

time. All new volunteers are required to attend

a volunteer orientation, complete a volunteer application and be approved prior to beginning

service in a school. Orientation dates are listed on LINKS page on the Lake Washington School

district website (www.lwsd.org). To register for an upcoming orientation, email

We’ve all had our monumental days: weddings, births of children, graduation days... the list goes on.

� ey’re emotional moments to say the least.On Tuesday, 47 local immigrants from 21 coun-

tries — including a Redmond family from South Af-rica and a local resident from Nepal — experienced some heartwarming moments when they were sworn in as United States citizens at a naturalization ceremony at Bellevue City Hall.

“I feel very privileged. It’s a very emotional feeling. It’s been a long road and I feel a sense of pride and joy,” said Enez McCondochie, 43, who is from South Africa. She became an American citizen along with her husband Ian, 46, and son Michael, 24.

Rajesh Maskara from Nepal was also sworn in on Tuesday.

“He came here to study in Tennessee. He was so drawn to the friendliness of Americans, it made him want to stay. Now he’s a so� ware engineering man-ager at Microso� ,” said Sharon Rummery, the public a� airs o� cer for U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.

Enez, who works at a Microso� joint venture on medical applications, moved to New York from Se-cunda, South Africa, in 2002 with her family to work in so� ware design and never looked back.

� ey moved to their current home on Education Hill in 2006.

“I love Redmond. I love the trails we have. I love the small businesses and the sense of community,” Enez said.

She’s an o� cial U.S. citizen now, but she noted that the naturalization process took a long time: about four years to a get a green card and then about � ve more years before Tuesday’s ceremony.

It was all worth the wait, she said.“� e United States is truly the No. 1 country in

the world in my eyes,” she added. “I really appreciate the balance of power — there’s no one ideology that dominates. I love the Constitution and Bill of Rights.

“You’re free from persecution and you’re free to be who you want to be. You can dream — and dream big.”

MUSIC SCENESpeaking of “Dreaming,” Blondie cranked out

their hit song and then some on Tuesday night at the Marymoor Park Concert Series. It was a stellar evening and you can check out my review on page 9.

Upcoming shows in the AEG Live series are � e Lumineers tonight and tomorrow night (both shows are sold out) and FURTHUR, featuring the Grateful Dead’s Phil Lesh and Bob Weir, on Sept. 24.

Use freedoms wiselyRecently, I spent a great day with my

14-year-old grandson. Before having din-ner I decided to run in to Bellevue Square. Just outside the mall was a stand set up with

signs wanting the impeachment of President Obama.

I had no problem with their message. That is their opinion, which I may not agree, but respect. What I found to be very distressing was the look on my grandson’s face when he saw a Hitler-like mustache painted on the president.

Yes, They have freedom of speech on the president.

Yes, They have freedom of speech and expression. They also have no respect, as to equate an American leader with a monster such as Hitler, responsible for the killing of six million people.

I wonder sometimes if we, as Americans, abuse our freedoms. Maybe a little more time should be spent by parents and schools to teach our children how to use the Constitu-tion in a more positive way.Jean Rothman, Bellevue

Public ignored in Syria talk What I find most disturbing in discus-

sions about bombing Syria is how much the concerns and advice from the public is being ignored.

The media is being very one-sided in presenting the views of the president and Congress, while only giving lip service to the views and concerns of the public most of whom are against the U.S. getting involved in yet another conflict.

I was totally against Bush’s war on Iraq. As time has shown, I was more right about the situations than the media and politicians who started an unnecessary conflict for which we and the people of Iraq are still paying for them in blood and we in tax dollars. Those dollars should be going to resolve problems in our own country.

Why are the powers to be in this country so obsessed with getting involved in the affairs of other countries while not dealing with our problems is what we all should be asking?George Whitaker, Bellevue

the crossing is a safety project designed to keep it that way, separating wildlife from vehicles.

“It’s an accident-reduc-tion project,” Brater said.

He said crossings have been built throughout the country in states such as Arizona, Florida, Colorado and North Carolina and they have proven to be very successful.

� e community’s re-sponse to the project has been mixed.

Brater said they have done some public presen-tations, including one at Trilogy at Redmond Ridge in which more than 150 people attended. For the most part, people sup-ported the wildlife crossing, but there were some people who were against it, he said.

� e Redmond Reporter put a call out on its Face-book page, asking com-

munity members what they thought about the wildlife crossing.

Ian McCa� rey of Red-mond called the bridge a “huge waste of money.”

“I’ve lived on Novelty Hill/Union Hill for over 25 years and I can only recall seeing one deer get hit in that area where the bridge is being built,” he said.

McCa� rey said tax dollars should be used to widen the road to relieve tra� c congestion.

� e $5.5 million proj-ect is fully funded by a federal grant through the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, E� cient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU).

“I realize the project is federally funded, so there’s no fault to (King County), but I would much prefer that the money was used to fund something that was actually needed and useful,”

said Kerry O’Leary.While citing a Reporter

story from April 2012, which states there have been six deer collisions since 1999 and two cougar collisions since 2004 but only 70 percent of vehicle-animal collisions are reported, Charlie Tilling-hast of Woodinville said the numbers for the project do not make sense. He said if the crossing saves 100 animals over the course of 50 years, it will cost $60,000 per animal.

“I am all for saving wild-life, but imagine how many acres of habitat could have been purchased before the development of Redmond Ridge with $6 million,” he said. “Enough habitat to support more than two additional large animals per year. � is project is a tragic waste of tax dollars even for the most ardent supporters of wild land and wildlife.”

Although certain parts of the Eastside have been designated as high-density areas and the region’s natu-ral environment has been altered to accommodate this growth, the local hu-mans are still sharing space with the local animals.

And when the two worlds meet, it can be dangerous — for either party.

� is summer, the cities of Redmond and Bellevue saw just how dangerous.

In the span of two weeks, the cities saw two car ac-cidents that killed two deer along the city line.

� e � rst accident oc-curred on July 25 in the 2600 block of West Lake Sammamish Parkway Northeast in Redmond and involved a fawn, while the second occurred on Aug. 10 in the 17100 block of

Northeast 24th Street in Bellevue and involved a doe.

A� er the two accidents, Redmond resident Laura Spalart, who lives nearby, has become concerned about the possibility of fu-ture collisions. She said the speed limit of 35 mph is “far too high” for the narrow and winding road, which has poor visibility due to the natural overgrowth and low tree canopy.

Spalart, who has lived in the area for about 21 years altogether, said she would like to see a “Deer Cross-ing” sign somewhere along the road to warn drivers of the possible danger. She contacted the Washing-ton State Department of Transportation but was told the road is out of their jurisdiction because it is city road. So she contacted both the cities of Bellevue and Redmond as well as the

Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife. However, she said, no agency has stepped up to do anything to mitigate.

“I think hitting a deer also poses a threat to hu-mans,” she said about why she would like to see a sign installed. “People are killed hitting deer.”

Spalart said the addition of deer in their neighbor-hood has been a recent development.

“I had never seen deer until four or � ve years ago,” she said.

Ron Grant, interim direc-tor for the City of Red-mond’s Public Works De-partment, said it is generally acknowledged by those in the transportation profes-sion that “roadway warning signs are most e� ective when they alert the driver to an obvious danger” such as a “Curve Ahead” sign.

Although Tommy Smith had been in charge of a fire department three times as big as the Redmond Fire Depart-ment (RFD) before coming to the city, the new fire chief ’s workload has not changed much.

The former interim fire chief for the Colorado Springs Fire Department in Colorado Springs, Colo. said going from a department with 21 fire sta-tions and almost 500 employees to one with only seven stations and about 160 employees has not changed how busy his job keeps him.

“What I’m finding out is the load and the pace is just as fast,” Smith said about coming to the City of Redmond.

Smith, who has been at work for a little more than two weeks, said things in Redmond are a little bit more com-plex than in Colorado Springs because it is more of a regional approach to emergency response. Collaborating with and supporting agencies from other jurisdictions adds another layer of complexity to the job that he didn’t have in Colorado Springs, where that city was bigger and had more resources to respond to an emergency without the assistance of other agencies unless it was on a larger scale or on the outskirts of town.

Smith has spent part of his time going out to all of the fire stations in town to meet his employees, introduce himself and discuss his expectations with them.

“It’s been great,” he said about meet-ing all the different crews.

Smith has been to all seven stations but not all of the shifts, so he still hasn’t

met everyone from the RFD.As the new fire chief, Smith said his

mission is to make sure his decisions are driven by what is best for the organiza-tion and the people in it. He said his first priority is to ensure the department is able to do things and have the resources and training to accomplish the depart-ment’s goals of ensuring life safety, inci-dent stability and property conservation when responding to emergencies.

Smith, who has been a firefighter for 22 years, has also been working with Redmond Police Chief Ron Gibson on a public safety strategic plan for the city.

The plan will act as a guide with goals for what they aim to provide for the community as the public safety branch of Redmond’s government.

Jeri Rowe-Curtis, chief communica-tions officer for the City of Redmond, said while fire and police have distinct functions within the community, they also have similar functions in solving problems, public safety and protecting the community.

“I think having a shared vision for that strategic plan…makes sense,” she said. “Coordination makes sense, because though the tactics are differ-

ent for police and fire, the ‘all-hazards’ approach for Redmond means that both departments have a significant and coordinated role in keeping the com-munity safe.”

Rowe-Curtis said this is the fire de-partment’s master plan that goes back to 1990, but the police department has not had one before this. So in addition to a first-time partnership between the two departments, this is also a first-time plan for the police department. Another first is the city’s Planning Department helping the two chiefs on the plan on a consulting basis.

director for Yes on 522, said Washington is the only state to have something on the topic on its ballot, but Main and Connecticut have both recently passed similar bills through their state legislatures and Alaska has had a law since 2005 that required labels for genetically engineered fish. She said about half of the re-maining states in the country currently have something in

the works regarding GMO labeling.

“To me, it just makes sense to want to know what you’re eating,” said Fall City resident Sue Heaps, who attended the talk at Hugo’s on Tuesday.

She said she became inter-ested in I-522 because she likes to be conscientious of what she is eating.

“It seems so simple,” Heaps said about labeling food, al-though she acknowledged her

thoughts may just be because she supports the initiative.

Dana Bieber, spokesperson for the No on 522 coalition, said the initiative is not simple and does not provide consum-ers with meaningful informa-tion.

For example, cheese is exempt from the labeling but does contain a genetically en-gineered enzyme. Conversely, Bieber said refined sugar made from the sugar beet would be

labeled to contain GMOs, even though once it is processed, the genetically engineered protein is no longer there.

“That’s where consumers are being misled,” she said. “It fails on its fundamental promise of giving information to consumers. Instead, it gives misinformation to consum-ers.”

Bieber said GMO labeling is unnecessary because there are already labels for organic and

non-GMO foods, which are 100 percent reliable.

She added that if I-522 were to pass, it would cost families at least $450 a year on in-creased prices for groceries.

No on 522 has a number of supporters from out of state, but Bieber said one in-state supporter is the Washington State Farm Bureau.

“Our farmers know (I-522) hurts them,” she said, because it puts a large burden on them.

Redmond-based Microsoft Corp. has given a $1.7 million dollar founding gift to the University of Washington (UW) for a new interdisciplin-ary tech policy lab.

The school announced Fri-day the launch of a pioneer-ing laboratory designed to examine issues such as cyber security, consumer privacy and online censorship and to improve national policies on new technologies.

Leaders from the UW unveiled the lab at a cer-emony Thursday night. They were joined by Microsoft Executive Vice President and General Counsel Brad Smith

and Microsoft Corporate Vice President and Head of Microsoft Research, Peter Lee in announcing the company’s founding gift.

The new Tech Policy Lab brings together experts from the UW School of Law, Information School and Com-puter Science and Engineering and serves as an intellectual hub and resource center for both policymakers and technologists. Research will focus on complex policy issues emerging from 21st century technology, including online privacy, piracy, big data, public records access and wearable technology and on improving

technology policy outcomes.“In a nation where technol-

ogy moves at an ever-rapid rate, policymakers can lack the technical knowledge they need to address how net-works, devices and software operate. So the lab’s deeply interdisciplinary approach to addressing these issues marks a creative, critical step forward,” said Ryan Calo, assistant professor at the UW’s School of Law and one of the lab’s three founding directors.

The other two founding di-rectors are associate professor Tadayoshi Kohno from Com-puter Science and Engineering and professor Batya Friedman

from the Information School.Lab teams made up of

both students and faculty will identify, test and examine new technologies in order to provide policymakers with a rigorous research base and evidence-based recommenda-tions for decision-making.

“Right now, technology shoots ahead, often leaving a huge policy vacuum and then policymakers run to catch up,” said Friedman. “How do we figure out how to co-evolve technology and policy so that we don’t experience these vacuums? It’s a fascinating challenge.”

To address these and

related questions, the founding directors hope to create publications, training sessions and suites of tools to enable policymakers to better understand what the technological implications of regulatory decisions might be. Reciprocally, the lab will help technologists understand how their technical decisions interact with current policies and provide tools to support dialog between technologists and policymakers. The lab will also service legislative staffers, academics, counsel and press working on technology issues.

“The brilliance of this lab — perhaps the first of its kind in

the world — lies in bringing computer scientists and engi-neers together with legal and policy experts to help improve technology policy,” said Smith. “The Tech Policy Lab will help policymakers keep up with the pace of technical innova-tion.”

Kohno added, “Very often you have computer scientists focused only on technology, legal scholars focused only on policy and social scientists focused only on social issues. Very rarely do you get all three types of people in the same lab working together to solve important problems for our society.”

“The use of warning signs that alert drivers to infre-quent encounters or possible situations (such as ‘Deer Crossing’ or ‘Slow Children’) do not have a consistent impact on driver behavior,” he said.

Grant said research has shown that “Deer Crossing” signs do not have a consistent impact on driver behav-ior or reduce deer-vehicle collisions, which is why the city and other surrounding communities do not install such signs.

He added that Redmond is an area with a lot of wildlife and “we cannot keep them from crossing roadways or predict where they may enter a roadway at any given time.”

“There are many potential areas within the city where deer may be present and it would be impossible for us to install signs at all of these locations,” Grant said. “In addition, deer are migratory and will likely move to new areas throughout the year.”

Hillary Stibbard, a traffic engineering manager for the City of Bellevue, said they work with the Department of Fish and Wildlife when

it comes to placing signs re-garding animal crossings. Be-fore placing a sign, she said they will usually monitor strikes over several years to try to determine whether the area is a well-used wildlife corridor.

“Generally, we don’t sign unless there is a known mi-gration route,” Stibbard said.

She added that another reason they pause before installing a sign is that there are federal guidelines for signs. Stibbard said they don’t want to post too many and have “sign pollution” because people will stop paying at-tention.

“Unfortunately, people forget about them,” she said. “They just don’t see signs.”

Stibbard couldn’t say how much a “Deer Crossing” costs, but said the price to put up a sign ranges and de-pends on various factors. For example, she said a memorial sign — usually located along a road where someone has died in some sort of crash — ranges from about $200-$250. She added that if they were to get a “Deer Cross-ing” sign for the area, the city where the sign is posted would pay for it.

For the past four years, every October, zombies of all ages have gathered at Redmond Town Center, laid down in the streets “playing dead,” then slowly gotten up (to the beat of Michael Jackson’s “� riller”), and be-gan a worldwide � ash mob dance simulcast with other “� rill the World” locations such as London, Sydney, Tokyo, Helsinki, New York and Brazil.

� e event this year will be at 2 p.m. on Oct. 26.

Classes to learn the “� riller” dance begin Saturday at the Redmond Senior Center at 8703 160th Ave. N.E. � ere is a fee to learn this dance — with a portion of the proceeds

going toward Second-Story Repertory, a nonpro� t theater in the town center. Two-hour dance workshops (for ages 8 to 80) are $5. It takes at least two classes to learn how to dance like a zombie. To reserve a spot in the workshops, call (425) 556-2314.

Zombie dance instructor Teresa Osborn and the rest of the world will be danc-ing for world records and charity.

For more information about the � riller Work-shops and the event on Oct. 26, visit www.Redmond-zombies.com.

� e Redmond Reporter and Star 101.5 are co-spon-sors for the event.

Several songs into X’s set on Tuesday night at Marymoor Park, bassist/singer John Doe gave a nod to the Redmond area.

“� anks to Blondie for bringing us out here amongst the greenery,” he told the crowd before the band launched into “Breathless” and got several of the attendees pogo-ing and singing the words up near the front of the stage.

� e pioneering Los Angeles punk band, which got its start in the dingy Masque club in 1977, kicked o� the evening with a gritty 45-minute set that began with “Your Phone’s O� the Hook, But You’re Not” from its debut album and closed with Pearl Jam’s Eddie Vedder taking the stage to add vocals to the ripping “Devil Doll” from its fourth album “More Fun in the New World.” (Vedder also joined X for “� e New World” earlier in the set as the crowd cheered in approval.)

All the classic X trademarks were present: Vocalist Exene Cervenka swaying to the beat while intensely belting out the tunes; Doe strutting across the stage and singing lead and harmonies with

his former wife; guitarist Billy Zoom smiling away as he knocked out ri� a� er ri� ; and drum-mer D.J. Bonebrake pounding away with precision.

Other standout tracks in the 16-song set included “Nausea,” “Los Angeles” and “White Girl.” While the band was on point most of the time, there were some slip ups on vocals and guitar, but the band powered through to the end.

When it was Blondie’s turn, Debbie Harry and crew roared out of the gate with “One Way or Another” from its best album “Parallel Lines” from 1978 and rolled through its string of hits dur-ing its 105-minute set. On the docket: “� e Tide is High,” “Rapture,” “Atomic,” “Heart of Glass,” “Call Me” and the � nale “Dreaming.”

Blondie began its career in the 1970s in clubs like CBGB’s in New York and its three original members present — Harry, drummer extraordi-naire Clem Burke and guitar-ist Chris Stein — proved they can still throw down with the best of them these days.

Harry pranced on stage wearing a wizard’s out� t and dark sunglasses and sang strong on the � rst few num-bers. Her voice had its highs and lows the rest of the way, but she never stopped enter-taining the crowd with her gutsy style, which included smiles, smirks, arm waves and boxer-like air punches.

She joked that she doesn’t have a “grungy” fashion sense, pointing to her slick

out� t that consisted of a black shirt, red tie, black leather mini skirt and thigh-high black leather boots, which she revealed before the band played “Maria” from the 1999 album “No Exit.” � e band also chipped in with a new keyboard-� avored tune, “A Rose By Any Other Name.”

As the evening came to a close and “Dreaming” was the song of the moment, two fans took crowd participation to another level: One man ran across the stage before security escorted him away, and one woman in striped pants jumped up to Harry, gave her a hug and a kiss on the cheek and bowed down to the singer a� er the band � nished up.

CONCERT REVIEW


The sacroiliac joint (sak-roh-il-ee-ak, or sey-kroh-il-ee-ak), or SI joint for short, can be quite the back pain culprit.

It’s comprised of the edges of the sacrum

and the back part of the ilium, or pelvis — the “Mickey Mouse ears” in our hips. The sacrum is a triangular shaped bone, located just under our lumbar spine (ver-tebrae) and just above

our coccyx (tailbone). Its main function is to provide stability in our hips, and considering our more mobile lumbar spine is just above the sacrum, it’s no wonder that it can be problem-atic — those upstairs neighbors are moving all

the time! Generally, when this

is the area needing help, clients will talk about very low back pain on both sides, or some-times, very low back pain right in the middle of the body. Research shows that women are

more likely to suffer from sacroiliac discom-fort (pregnant women especially, which isn’t a surprise considering the sacrum has to really shift during this time), but I’ve also seen plenty of men who come in with this type of pain.

Why does this cause so much pain? Well, there are sev-eral reasons. We’ve all heard that we need to strengthen our core muscles to reduce back pain — when you have a strong core, it acts as a strap or brace for the other side of the body, holding the SI joint in place and reducing pain and discomfort felt in the low back. Another culprit is spending too much time in one spot — whether sitting or standing. The body is designed to be in mo-tion, not stay static for too much time. Spend-ing too much time in one spot causes stress and strain on muscles,

which in turn can cause bones (and the ligaments that connect them) to move out of an optimal alignment, so when you do start moving again, you notice slight twinges at first, which slowly progress to constant pain if left untreated. And of course, almost any kind of trauma or injury can cause these structures to shift out of place.

What can I do to help it? Gentle seated twists can alleviate the pain — of course, if the pain gets worse, please stop immediately. This isn’t a “no pain, no gain” kind of joint.

Another stretch is a gentle forward bend, as far as is comfortable for you. Be sure to come up slowly out of this stretch, as well, so you don’t “shock” your system back to reality. I find it helps to take slow, deep breaths while stretching, and moving with the breath.

You can also look into getting an exercise ball to use instead of a chair at work — this will keep you moving and less prone to getting “stuck” in one spot for a prolonged period of time. If you must stand a lot at work, be sure to shift your weight wherever pos-sible, and make sure you have excellent footwear that’s designed for the type of work you do. And, my favorite thing — an Epsom salt soak for about 20 minutes.

How can massage help SI joint issues? By treating the ligament that con-nects these two bones, your friendly neighbor-hood massage therapist can help the area stretch, loosen up, and move more freely. The sur-rounding structures should then be addressed — namely, all of the muscles involved with the low back area (glute medius, piriformis, erec-tor spinae group, as well

as the other various sacral ligaments, to name just a few). A few sessions in a short period of time (usu-ally, once or twice a week for three weeks) will help the body “learn” to stay in its new surroundings and back pain can be relieved, especially when you do your crucial part and stretch, soak, strengthen the core and change how you move your body.

Another incredibly helpful treatment is water exercise for acute back pain (or any joint pain really), as this helps to strengthen muscles without stressing joints. And any exercise without stress is definitely good in my book!

Get the losses out of the way in the preseason and start netting crucial vic-tories once the 4A Kingco season begins.

Redmond High senior co-captains Kelsey Costello and Marianna Castro said this jokingly during prac-tice on Monday afternoon, but realistically, that’s what

they were faced with several games into their 2013 cam-paign.

The Mustangs began league play last night against Garfield High, after the Reporter’s deadline.

“Preseason is for experi-menting. We’re seeing what works. When the season starts, that’s when we’ll get into it — we’ll pick it up,” said midfielder Costello, whose team was 1-2-1 in

the preseason.Added goalkeeper

Castro: “We had a really bad preseason last year, but once the season started is when we really cracked down and started to do what we needed to do. That’s how we started win-ning all those games.”

It was a memorable, monumental year for Red-mond in 2012.

The Mustangs compiled an 8-1-1 league record (11-5-2 overall) last season, notched the league cham-pionship with a 1-0 victory over highly favored Skyline and earned the No. 1 league seed to state (they lost to Curtis, 2-1, in the state opener). Sierra Bilginer’s goal off a Costello assist ended Skyline’s 37-match unbeaten streak and gave Redmond its first league crown in 21 years.

Costello’s eyes light up and she clenches her first a bit when saying that winning Kingco is an “indescribable” feeling. The team pulled together and worked hard to knock off Skyline. They want to be in the position to make an impact again this season and they hope to achieve that with talent and team camaraderie.

“Everybody loves an underdog. We had all the other high schools rooting for us to beat Skyline last year since they were No. 1, and beating them was the greatest feeling ever,” Castro said while smiling.

Castro added that the team is improving with each match this year and overcoming the loss of key graduates Bilginer (first team all-Kingco), Kris-tin Hayman and Andrea Larson (both second team all-Kingco).

Leading the way this season for coach Patrick Scheibe (19th season) are all-Kingco first-teamers

defending league champions set to

score big again

Costello and junior mid-� elder Kennedy Kieneker, second-teamer Castro and honorable mentions Veronica Chung (defender/forward), Caroline French (defender), Marisa Messina (goalkeeper) and Sidney Nilsen (mid� elder), all juniors.

Whether it’s a regular-season game or a state match, Castro said two keys to success are “our mindset before the game, knowing we gotta try our best. You have to go in there and � ght in order to win.”

Costello and Castro said they’re always think-ing about performing well on the soccer pitch. � e girls — who all wear yellow � uorescent T-shirts on game days — talk about soccer during the day at school, Castro has written “Girls Soccer Tonight” on the chalkboard in front of class and Costello tells everyone she sees at school to come out and support the Mustangs.

“I de� nitely think about the game a lot. On game days in class, sometimes it’s hard to focus,” Castro said.

Added Costello, who scored along with senior forward Sam Wrast in Redmond’s 2-1 victory over Seattle Prep on Tuesday: “It’s always on our mind because we really care a lot about this program. We’ve been playing varsity soccer since we were freshmen, so it’s really important to us. We want to � nish our se-nior year strong and we’re really focusing on getting to that state level.”

Castro feels Redmond soccer is like having an-other family. It’s a special sisterhood.

“It’s the best. � is team, I love it more than anything,” Costello said. “I look for-ward to Redmond soccer everyday. When the season ends, I get sad and I look forward to the next season as soon as the last game’s over.”
