DelBene goes the UPS route for a morning

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene scans a package while UPS delivery driver Mike Vallimont watches on Wednesday morning at Triumph Aerospace Group on Redmond Ridge. DelBene, who represents the 1st District, went “undercover” as a UPS worker during Vallimont’s morning run in Redmond as part of her effort to pursue more engaging and creative forms of constituent outreach. Before hitting the road, DelBene met with drivers and officials at UPS’s Redmond distribution facility on Northeast Union Hill Road. “Small businesses and families are impacted by the hard work you do every day,” she said. She also praised UPS’s work with local food banks and the United Way. ANDY NYSTROM, Redmond Reporter

A former Microsoft Corp. employee was arrested Wednesday for leaking confidential information regarding the Redmond-based tech company.

Alex Kibkalo was charged in U.S. District Court in Seattle with theft of trade secrets after he uploaded “proprietary software including prerelease software updates for Windows 8 RT and ARM devices, as well as the Microsoft Activation Software Development Kit (SDK) to a computer in Redmond…and subsequently to his personal Windows Live SkyDrive account,” according charging documents. Kibkalo, a Russian national who had been in Lebanon at the time, transmitted this

information to a technology blogger in France in July and August 2012.

The suspect encouraged the blogger, who remains unnamed in documents, to share the SDK — an internal product development kit used for product key validation and distributed for internal use only — with others “who might be able to reverse the software and write ‘fake activation server’ code,” charging papers state.

Microsoft launched an internal investigation after the blogger sent the stolen information to a Microsoft employee on Sept. 3, 2012. “The blogger asked the (employee) to examine the contents of the code to help the blogger better understand its contents,” charging documents state.

The employee took the information to the former [ more ARREST page 2 ]

Redmond teen’s Bottle Bill may pop up on ballot Kelley Koeppen was first bitten by the environmental bug in sixth grade when she attended the Environmental and Adventure School (EAS) in Kirkland.

While attending the Lake Washington School District (LWSD) choice school, she participated in a number of stewardship projects, which were part of the school’s curriculum. She helped clean up parks, mulch trails,

prune blackberry bushes and more.

Since then, community service has become a part of who she is and recently, the Redmond High School (RHS) senior has taken things to the next level.

When Koeppen turned 18 a few weeks ago, she went online to do two things. First, she registered to vote.

Second, she submitted an application for a state initiative to be put on the November ballot later this year that would encourage more people to recycle by giving them a 5-cent refund

on empty water and pop bottles and pop cans they return to designated redemption centers.

The Washington Secretary of State office is still processing the application for Koeppen’s initiative — which she is calling the Washington Bottle Bill — but once it is approved, Koeppen said she will begin collecting signatures to get it on the ballot come November.

She needs to collect 246,372 — or 8 percent of the number of people who voted for Gov. Jay Inslee — by July. [ more BILL page 5 ]

Kelley Koeppen hopes people can soon get 5 cents for each empty water and pop bottle and can they return to designated redemption centers. SAMANTHA PAK, Redmond Reporter

It’s More Than Retirement. It’s Five-Star Fun.

Vineet Kumar Srivastava, who was charged with second-degree rape of a Microsoft Corp. janitor last July, had an omnibus hearing on March 14 at King County Superior Court.

According to a press secretary for the King County

Prosecuting Attorney Office, Srivastava’s trial is set for April 7.

The 36-year-old former Microsoft senior program manager was arraigned on Aug. 14 and entered a notguilty plea to the charges.

He’s out of custody after

posting bond in July.

An omnibus hearing is a criminal pre-trial hearing. Typically, disclosure of evidentiary matters, procedural and constitutional issues are attempted to be resolved, according to USLegal.com.

[ ARREST from page 1]

The documents state that Kibkalo had been a seven-year Microsoft employee. In 2012, he had received a poor performance review and “threatened to resigned if the review was not amended,” according to charging papers.

Microsoft’s investigation also revealed instant messaging conversations between Kibkalo and the blogger discussing transferring data between themselves, Kibkalo leaking the information as well as discussions about how they might get caught.

“I would leak enterprise today probably,” Kibkalo told the blogger

on Aug. 2, 2012, according to charging papers.

“Hmm,” the blogger said in response, “are you sure you want to do that? lol.”

Charging documents also reveal a later conversation on Aug. 12, 2012, in which the blogger told Kibkalo leaking the information is “crossing a line you know pretty illegal.”

In response, Kibkalo said, “I know :)” documents state.

Microsoft contacted the FBI in July 2013 with its investigators’ results.

Kibkalo has been detained in a correction facility pending his trial.

president of Microsoft’s Windows Division.

Microsoft investigators interviewed Kibkalo on Sept. 24, 2012 and he admitted “he had provided confidential Microsoft products and information to the blogger and confirmed that he did so via his SkyDrive account and the computer in Redmond,” according to court documents. Kibkalo admitted to stealing “hotfixes” for Windows 8, the SDK, unreleased versions of Windows Live messenger and documents and presentations about products, charging papers state.

REDMOND CENTRAL CONNECTOR ‘SIGNALS’ ARTWORK SUNSET RECEPTION SET FOR THURSDAY

The public is invited to join the City of Redmond in celebrating the newest public artwork, “SIGNALS,” by John Fleming. A sunset ribbon-cutting reception

will be held from 7:30-8:30 p.m. on Thursday on the Redmond Central Connector near 161st Avenue Northeast and Bear Creek Parkway.

Guest speakers will include Fleming, Redmond Mayor John Marchione and Parks and Recreation Director Craig Larsen.

Guests are encouraged to arrive at 7:30 p.m. to enjoy the artwork with music and refreshments; the event will begin at 7:45 p.m.

Fleming is a gifted artist with decades of experience. His work is a combination of art, architecture and conceptual/environmental projects. Many of Fleming’s projects are inspired by mixed and recycled media.

“SIGNALS” is a substantial gateway sculpture with a colored LED lighting feature that was installed throughout January and February of this year. It is located at the Brown Street Plaza, within the Redmond Central Connector near 161st Avenue Northeast and Bear Creek Parkway.

“SIGNALS” reuses parts from de-commissioned train signals that used to regulate traffic along the BNSF railroad intersections in Redmond. This piece brings together pedestrians and bicyclists instead of trains and cars. It also serves as an informal gathering place and performance venue for the City of Redmond.

Tragedies affect everyone I drove to work on Tuesday morning, but I don’t recall many details of what transpired on the way there.

My eyes were watching the road and my ears were glued to the radio, listening to reporters describe the tragic event that took place near the Space Needle that left two men dead and one man seriously injured.

Longtime KOMO News photographer Bill Strothman and pilot Gary Pfitzner perished in the helicopter crash and Richard Newman, a motorist, was at Harborview Medical Center with secondand third-degree burns.

I got chills down my spine and I became teary eyed as I listened to the KOMO reporters describe the scene and how their hearts were hurting for their co-workers (who hadn’t been identified yet) and their families. One woman could barely get through her report without crying, but she finished and signed off. I admired her courage and professionalism to do her job so well at that moment.

As I continued my drive, I began to think about my workload for the day, but shook my head. How do you carry on with your day when something like that has happened?

[4] March 21, 2014

toward our office in Kirkland, I drove by the heaps of flowers near the crosswalk at Northeast 160th Street where Sarah Paulson was hit by a car last Friday morning. She passed away from her injuries at Harborview later that day.

Again, I was struck in the gut at how life is fragile. I thought about my wife, my family and friends as I moved on up the road. We really don’t know what’s in store for us and need to embrace what we have each day.

Later in the day, I read a statement from KOMO news anchor and reporter Molly Shen about Strothman that moved me: “We

all know him as one of the best storytellers to have ever graced the halls of KOMO. It felt like a loss for us because he knows his craft so well, and he’s such an artist and such a great journalist.”

Mark Pfitzner, Gary’s brother, also shared his thoughts with the media. His statement reads in part: “He took great care of his brothers and sister and always led by example. He LOVED to fly. Gary died doing what he loved.”

I never met these two men, but I admire them. Their passion for life and work is contagious and will inspire me from here on out.

It has had zero effect.

A great place for a drive-by mailbox location is in front of Redmond City Hall in the mini-roundabout where they put the voters’ ballot box. Or a box at the library.

Don’t punish kids: Vote ‘yes’ on bond I moved into the Lake Washington School District (LWSD) the same year the new buildings for Redmond High School (RHS) and Mann Elementary opened. I can understand frustration over these new schools needing portables and additions so early in their life cycles. However, in that same time frame, I’ve watched Education Hill fill up with new houses. The kids in those new houses need schools, too.

Paige A. Norman mentions that Mann Elementary will need portables due to the overflow of Rockwell students. She doesn’t mention that Rockwell has not been modernized or rebuilt, and that Rockwell has borne much more of the brunt of the new developments than Mann has.

Also, since RHS was built, the district changed the alignment of which grades attend high school.

The addition at RHS was necessary to accommodate adding ninthgraders, not because of failing to plan for growth.

Housing growth usually happens faster than school capacity growth.

I agree that LWSD has not managed the growth as well as we might like, and I’ve taken issue with some of their planning numbers before.

However, voting “no” on the bond punishes students and isn’t the most effective means of communicating with the district.

If you want to send a message, talk to your school board and hold them accountable for doing the necessary oversight. Don’t punish kids. Vote “yes” on LWSD’s bond measure.

Death penalty has a moral issue One can debate the morality of the death penalty or whether it acts as a deterrent to heinous crimes. (I happen to believe it can be justified on moral grounds and would act as a deterrent if it represented a real threat.)

However, there is nothing “moral” about our state’s legal system preventing prosecutors from seeking the death penalty because of additional costs. It has very little to do with the guilt or innocence of the accused or how heinous the act.

It is more a case of defense lawyers asking and getting long delays and “billable” hours from judges, many of whom owe their election to campaign support from lawyers.

A perfect example is our legal system’s inability to get “justice” for the 2007 murder of six relatives of one of the accused perpetrators. Surely no one questions their guilt. How long can it possibly take to determine if there were some extenuating circumstances leading to the atrocity that might merit a lesser penalty?

Instead the defense team’s constant appeals to agreeable judges

have resulted in more than six years of $7 million spent with no trial date. How is that “moral”?

As boomers retire, it’s time to make longterm care a priority For the next 18 years, approximately 8,000 baby boomers will turn 65 every day. By 2030, one in five Washingtonians will be considered elderly — and many will need long-term care. Reliance on government support for long-term care needs will continue to grow as baby boomers age.

The future looks startling to those of us who comprise the “silver tsunami” and is downright alarming for thousands of Washingtonians who rely on the state’s Medicaid system to pay for long-term care services in nursing homes and assisted-living centers.

Assisted-living Medicaid rates haven’t been updated in nearly a decade and were cut by 6 percent from 2010 to 2012. Nursing-home rates were last updated in 2007.

Rates fell short by over $100 million in 2012, and more than half of the [ more LETTERS page 5 ]

Redmond’s MyVitaminPacks.com launches new technology Redmond-based MyVitaminPacks, LLC (MVP) announced the immediate availability of automatic drug nutrient interaction information as part of its vitamin application, The Vitamin Advisor.

The Vitamin Advisor takes the confusion and hassle out of taking vitamins by creating personalized recommendations

at no cost, the company’s press release reads.

“Nutritional science has made substantial advancements over the past decade. We have a much clearer understanding of drug/nutrient interactions.

Consumers and healthcare providers need to be aware of the importance of vitamins in improving a variety of health prob-

lems, while considering potential drug and vitamin interactions,” says Martin Gallagher, M.D. There is no charge to use the Vitamin Advisor.

Once the questionnaire is completed, the daily dose supplement packets, which are calculated to an individual’s personal nutritional needs, can be ordered from MyVitaminPacks.

Alternatively, consumers can simply print out their list of recommended nutrients.

All vitamin packs made

by MyVitaminPacks are created using pure, pharmaceutical-grade products and the exact dosages per supplement and pack are guaranteed.

“The supplement industry has gone from

snake oil to FDA-approved scientific specifications.

The Vitamin Advisor technology removes the confusion consumers experience when shopping for vitamins, and provided a recommendation from our medical professionals to ensure each individual is getting what they need,” said Jason Brown, founder of MyVitaminPacks, LLC.

“MyVitaminPacks provides the correct dosage, and personalized health information with the convenience of having your products delivered directly to you. Rather than getting many bottles of pills with different quantities of product per bottle, MVP creates a daily dose pack to provide a personalized solution.”

Koeppen’s post-program action plan became the Bottle Bill, but she couldn’t do anything about it until she turned 18. She said this made things a little more difficult as people can start filing for initiatives in February and her birthday isn’t until March.

Despite this challenge, Koeppen has not been deterred and hopes her peers feel the same.

“I just think it’s important that young people know they can make a difference, too,” she said.

Koeppen is doing her part to show young people can make a difference by enlisting the help of the Environmental Club at RHS. Senior Atticus Liu, who is one of the club’s copresidents, said they will be helping to spread the word about the Bottle Bill by getting a segment into the biweekly school news video.

“We’ll also try to come up with an efficient way for students to redeem their recyclables (in bulk for a more substantial refund) by the end of the school year,” he said. “If that means talking to administration to expand the recycling program

here at Redmond High School, that’s a challenge we’d love to step up to.”

Liu said when Koeppen approached him for help with the Bottle Bill about two weeks ago, it was the

first time he’d heard about it, but he was familiar with the concept of recycling bottles and cans for a refund.

“I personally like the effort, but more people need

to hear about it,” he said.

“I still see too many plastic bottles and tin cans in the garbage. I also believe making the refunds more convenient and accessible to people.”

Since Koeppen is working on a limited budget, she said she will focus her advertising efforts online through the bill’s website (www.washingtonbottlebill. org) and social media.

state’s nursing homes lost money.

Failure to update rates creates problems at the bedside, where care quality is truly defined. Seventy percent of the cost of long-term care is wageand labor-related, thus financial losses equal lost jobs and that translates to lost quality. This is simply not sustainable.

The first time Koeppen encountered the idea of receiving a refund from returning used bottles and cans was in middle school during a visit to her aunt and uncle’s house in Maine when the family stopped by a redemption center to turn in cans they had collected.

“I asked my mom, ‘Why don’t we have that in Washington?’” she said. “My mom said, ‘I don’t know, why don’t we?’”

The issue was driven home for Koeppen as she would see how many bottles and cans would be left on the ground after her soccer games.

“There’s a lot of waste left around,” she said.

Koeppen decided to do something about it after participating in a threeweek pre-college program through Brown University two summers ago. The program took students to Costa Rica, where they studied ecology and sustainability. The trip also included a visit to EARTH University, which teaches students about sustainable development and encourages students to apply what they learn back home.

Microsoft’s Office Online is now available in Cherokee language Walsh lends a hand by attending International Mother Language Day in Oklahoma SAMANTHA PAK spak@redmond-reporter.com

During a recent trip to Tulsa, Okla., Redmond resident Caitilin Walsh asked a room full of high school students how many of them spoke another language besides English.

Only a few students raised their hands.

When she asked how many of them were scared to answer the question, many more students raised their hands.

Walsh, who is the president of the American Translators Association (ATA), said many thought knowing a second language was a strike against them. So while she was there, she worked to stress to the students that she was not judging them.

“It’s a huge asset,” she said. “Many people covet (it). They would love to speak two languages.”

Caitlin Walsh chats with, left, Roy Boney, Cherokee Language Program manager, and Dr. Neil Morton, Cherokee Nation Education Services adviser and Sequoyah fellow, in Oklahoma. Courtesy of Alfred Hellstern vides people access to technology in a familiar language while respecting linguistic and cultural distinctions.

While in Tulsa — which is a little more than an hour away from the Cherokee Nation’s capital of Tahlequah, Okla. — Walsh met a number of translators from the tribe.

“They were really warm people,” she said.

Walsh’s visit with students while in Oklahoma was to raise awareness about what they could do with their language skills if they wish to further their studies.

She said many times when students pursue foreign languages in college, the only job option they think is available is to become a foreignlanguage teacher. Walsh said another option is to become a translator or interpreter, jobs that are growing in demand by leaps and bounds. “(It) is a very viable career option,” she said.

Walsh acknowledged that most students probably won’t choose to

A VIABLE CAREER OPTION

Walsh was in Oklahoma for International Mother Language Day, which was Feb. 21 and promotes awareness of linguistic and cultural diversity and multilingualism.

Her visit was part of a celebration of Microsoft’s Office Online becoming available in the Cherokee language.

This was all part of the Redmond tech company’s Local Language Program, which pro-

follow this path but at least now, the ones she spoke with know about this possibility.

WHERE CULTURE MEETS TECHNOLOGY

Walsh’s opportunity to meet with members of the Cherokee Nation came through her husband, Alfred Hellstern, who is a senior international projects manager for Microsoft and oversees the company’s efforts to translate its Office programs into other languages.

He said Cherokee was just one of 105 languages — outside of English — that were recently made available in Office Online. Hellstern added that Cherokee is the only American Indian language that has been translated at the moment as other native languages typically do not really have writing systems.

While working with the Cherokee translators, Hellstern said he and his team kept in close contact with weekly phone calls for

updates so everyone was up to date on the project’s latest developments.

Like Walsh, Hellstern stressed the importance of raising awareness about interpreting and translating job opportunities to students.

“It’s important to let the kids know...you can do stuff with it,” he said about being fluent in a second language.

LANGUAGE IS CULTURE

Roy Boney, Cherokee Language Program manager for the Cherokee Nation, said preserving a language is important because it goes hand in hand with preserving a culture.

“The Cherokee language is one of the most important aspects of who we are as a tribe, and many elements of our culture are contained in our language,” he said. “Our language offers more than communication. It transmits cultural knowledge and a mode of thinking that is uniquely Cherokee. To lose our language would

Caitlin Walsh speaks to Sequoyah High School students in Oklahoma about translation and interpreting. Courtesy photo mean a huge loss of part of our heritage, and the goal of the Cherokee Nation Language Program is to ensure our language lives on for future generations.”

Walsh agreed that it is important to preserve languages.

“The heritage of a culture is embedded in language,” she said.

She pointed out that while different cultures may have a word that translates to mean

similar concepts, that is often where the similarities end. For example, while the word “breakfast” refers to the morning meal a person eats, what that looks like can be different from culture to culture. In the United States, breakfast could mean cereal, whereas in Mexico, it could mean tortillas or miso soup in Japan, Walsh said.

“It needs a culture to have a meaning,” she said about words.

HIALEAH, FL – An ingredient often used to treat inflammation in racehorse legs is now back on the market in its original doctor recommended clinical strength formula.

According to a national drug survey, the formula at one time became so popular that it rose to the top of pharmacy sales for topical pain relievers. But the company marketing the product at the time changed the formula and sales plummeted. One of the inventors of the original formula has brought it back under the trade name ARTH ARREST and

says it can relieve pain for millions.

ARTH ARREST works by a dual mechanism whereby one ingredient relieves pain immediately, while a second ingredient seeks out and destroys the pain messenger signal before it can be sent to the brain. Considered a medical miracle by some, ARTH ARREST is useful in the treatment of a variety of painful disorders.

ARTH ARREST is available without a prescription or call 877-581-1502.

Last May, Redmond High School sophomores Patrick Beighle and Sidney Counts decided to make their business idea come to life. On Sept. 14, they started selling pocket T-shirts and broke even on their investment within a week. Within three weeks, they had doubled their investment and by week five, they had developed a website and sold their first products via the site.

“Hardwood Tees is a specialty shirt company centered on making cool designs for a cheap and affordable price,” according to the co-owners.

They currently sell pocket T-shirts with more than 18 styles of pocket patterns to choose from.

With everything from wood-themed pockets, to pockets with cats on them, their company’s goal is to be trendy and humorous.

Last Saturday, Beighle and Counts helped their

ethic, display resiliency, create a strong business plan and become involved in their local community.

Eleven students participated in Teen CEO. To be eligible students needed to have an existing business. Each project team was able to present to a team of judges that included Roger Blier, CEO, Passport Unlimited; Walt Krueger, partner, Krueger Beck, PLLC; Shannon Jurdana, president and CEO, Benefit Solutions, Inc.; and Charlotte Clary and Bev Vines-Haines, founders of Ice Chips Candy (as seen on ABC’s television show, “Shark Tank”).

Second place was awarded to BitTrust coowners and International Community School seniors, Dylan Steele and Anwell Wang. They received a cash award of $1,000. BitTrust is a website where users can write reviews and give ratings for stores that accept digital money (or “bits”).

Think about it this way: If you’re working in your office and everything is going as planned, spilling coffee on your desk, albeit a bit tragic, becomes an inconvenience. You can quickly clean the area and refill your coffee. However, if you have three phone lines holding, all with irate customers, and the boss tapping his foot impatiently waiting for your report to print, but the printer is out of both ink AND paper…and your coffee spills…well, there’s a catastrophe. Because of course this would be the time when there’s no more coffee!

Eating right, exercising and taking care of yourself will give you the best chance of things going as planned, and when coffee spills, you’re much better equipped to deal with the situation. So don’t be afraid to take care of YOU — today!

Q: Is there a proper way to breathe when lifting weights?

A: If you are new to exercise, it’s far more important that you just breathe rather than how you breathe. Often, synching your breath with your movements can be overwhelming to a new exerciser. There are more pertinent pieces of information that need to be addressed when getting started, such as becoming familiar with the strength training machines, execution of the exercises, or understanding which muscles are working. Once the exercises become familiar and you are out of the beginning stages of weight lifting, you will most likely be lifting a slightly heavier load and will be syncing your breath with your movements. This becomes more important to move the increased load.

Exhale during the “work” phase of an exercise. The “work” phase will be the most strenuous part of the movement pattern. Inhale during the “recovery” phase on an exercise. The “recovery” phase is typically the return back to the starting position.

FITNESS Q & A

ners/hikers/climbers/golfers and weekend warriors.

I’ve helped people who are training for bodybuilding shows and competitions. Maybe something you haven’t considered is the fact that all of these people have told me that receiving massage therapy while training helps them not only recover, but also focus!

So if it can help the super-dedicated exercise set, why wouldn’t it help the rest of us? Professional athletes and Olympians see massage therapists to help them perform their best; so it definitely seems possible that all of us can benefit from massage therapy. It can help keep you motivated to keep your exercise routine up, and can help your routine altogether — by keeping your muscles flexible and preserving your range of motion. More flexible muscles mean you can make the most of your workouts, and probably even be able to avoid injury! Muscles will generally want to try to stay in whatever position they’re currently in, so if something comes along to disrupt their happy home (like an injury), they will “try” to get back to the state in which they’re most “used” to being. If muscles are normally in their optimal state, like massage therapy encourages, they

cause they are high in fat and calories. But recently, I’ve seen information in magazines saying nuts are good for you. Is it true, and how can that be with a food so high in fat?

A: Eating nuts as part of a healthy diet can be good for your heart. Nuts contain polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fatty acids, which may have an effect on reducing blood levels of both total and LDL (“bad”) cholesterol.

Nuts also contain protein and fiber which helps you feel full, so they make a great on-the-go snack. Yes, nuts are high in calories, but you don’t need to eat much to reap the benefits as a handful is considered a serving. Almonds, cashews and pistachios are all great choices. When possible, make sure to choose nuts that are raw or dry roasted for the most nutritional value.

Sit up, let’s talk posture Garren Loescher

So, how’s your new year’s resolution holding up? Are you able to get enough exercise in your day? Do you have enough energy to do your daily activities, like gardening, cleaning house and playing with (or just keeping up with) the kids? And consider this question — how do you take care of YOU? You hear it every day in the news, from doctors, from other health providers: Eat right and exercise!

We know we’re supposed

to, right? And we immediately think that we’re supposed to start our exercise program by climbing Mt. Rainier or running a full marathon. But you know what? It really doesn’t happen like that. We need to walk before we run, and we need to crawl before we can walk!

Study after study has shown that massage therapy can be a great way to help you recharge and revitalize, so that you can keep being the awesome individual that you are.

In my decade of practice on thousands of clients, I’ve helped people feel great, yes — but not just the “Ahhhh!” feeling that massage therapy is so famous for providing. I’ve worked with professional athletes, hardcore run-

Simply reading the word “posture” makes most of us sit a little bit taller. Posture is one of the most fundamental and important components of a person’s health.

systems will be able to move and work efficiently.

When bones, muscles and joints are in the right positions, they are stronger and less likely to suffer an injury. Nervous, circulatory and digestive systems work more efficiently when the body and organs are aligned properly.

Having bad posture puts unnecessary stress on these systems, increasing the chance for injury and other disorders.

If having good posture is so important, how is it that so many people out there are living with bad posture? There are two factors that have led to the epidemic of poor posture. One is that society has become increasingly sedentary with people spending a majority of their time sitting: at a desk,

driving, watching TV, reading in a chair, working at a computer. All of these activities that have become so common put the body in a poor position. The second is the fact that the human body is incredibly resilient. It will adapt to these poor positions and learn to function and survive the best it can.

This is bad combination because the body will keep adapting to bad posture as it gets worse. As posture gets worse, this will cause injuries and other heath issues. These can be treated, but if the postural problems are not addressed, the issues will keep coming and with greater severity and frequency.

Bad posture can be prevented and corrected with diligence, through stretching and exercise. Bad posture comes from joints be-

ing in improper positions or overly tight muscles or ligaments. Through exercise, it is possible to reset joints and lengthen tissues to return the body back to proper alignment and its peak performance. Every body is different and every person has different body alignment and postural issues. Most exercise and health professionals can help identify these issues and guide you on how to correct them.

Are you still sitting up straight? My challenge to my clients and everyone is to take their posture seriously long term. Good posture is fundamental to a well functioning, healthy, happy body. So, don’t just sit tall for the next few minutes, hour or day — make it a lifelong endeavor!

This is her first NCEA Rider of the Month award, and it comes two weeks after she was named Southeastern Conference (SEC) Rider of the Month in equitation over fences.

Anthony posted a 3-0 jumping record for the Gamecocks last month while posting the highest score in all three of her rides, along with earning MVP honors in each meet.

In South Carolina’s 12-8 win at New Mexico State on Feb. 1, Anthony defeated her Aggie opponent, 87-83, while earning MVP honors.

One week later in the Gamecocks’ 10-9 win over Georgia, Anthony again won MVP honors, knocking off her Bulldog opponent, 87-86. She closed out the month at home against Texas A&M, completing her perfect month with an 8878 win while winning her third straight MVP.

NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d b u y e 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 c o r d by v i s u a l i z i n g 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.
