Ski local Valley trio slides down Mount Si in long-awaited ski trip By EVAN PAPPAS

Staff Reporter
After waiting more than 10 years, Trevor Kostanich, Peter Avolio and Dave Jordan finally took their chance to ski Mount Si from its summit. Skiing the North Bend landmark has always been a difficult prospect. Due to its low elevation, the mountain does not get the quantity or quality of snow necessary to make it worth skiing. Trevor Kostanich, North Bend City Councilman and planning and development consultant, said that because of these conditions, skiing Mount Si was always something that they wanted to do. After seeing the snowfall in December, the group decided that now was their chance. “You need to have a lot of lowelevation snow that you just don’t get. It’s very seldom that you have enough snow that low on the mountain to make it a worthwhile ski,” Kostanich said. “Peter and I have been talking about it for a long time, well over 10 years. I actually had just returned from a ski week in (British Columbia), the first mes-

sage I got was from Peter saying it looks like Mount Si is in.” Peter Avolio, a real estate broker in Issaquah, gave credit to Martin Volken, another North Bend City Councilman and owner of Pro Ski Service, who introduced Avolio to back-country skiing and brought up the idea of skiing Mount Si. “About 18 years ago I met Martin Volken. He wondered if anybody had skied that, but it’s low enough and it’s far west enough that it doesn’t usually get snow. So we have been talking about the idea for a while.” Avolio said. Finally, Avolio said, the conditions in December kept improving after heavy snow fell on Mount Si all month. “I came into his ski shop on the Sunday before the end of the year and we made a plan to go on Wednesday morning,” Avolio said. “He had to cancel because he got sick and I got plugged in to one of my other good friends, Trevor Kostanich and another man who guides for Martin, Dave Jordan, we figured it out together and made plans to meet at 6 a.m. We went ahead and made the trip happen.” On the morning of Wednesday, Dec. 30, the three men met at Starbucks in North Bend to plan out their trip. Then they drove up to Mount Si and started the trek to the top.
Mountains and trees Elementary school’s final four name options reflect Valley terrain Two weeks from now, Snoqualmie Valley School District’s sixth elementary school will have a name. School board members narrowed the list of 15 suggestions to just
four possible names for the school at their Jan. 14 meeting. The final four choices are Timber Ridge Elementary, Mountain Ridge Elementary, Little Si Elementary and Cedar Ridge Elementary. The school, planned since early 2013, is under construction now on Southeast Swenson Drive on Snoqualmie Ridge. It is scheduled to open by the start of the 2016-17 school year, in September. School staff began the naming process last fall, soliciting name ideas from the community in several rounds of online surveys. From the roughly 200 submissions received,
they narrowed the list to 15 that conformed with the school’s naming guidelines. These guidelines called for names to be known and significant to district residents; to not conflict with names of other schools; and to avoid the names of individual people. Prior to voting on the names, the school board received an update on the school’s progress and planned design theme. Assistant Superintendent Ryan Stokes reported that the district was ready to choose a furniture vendor for the building, a place holder website SEE SCHOOL, 15

Voter registration challenge dismissed by elections staff One day after King County officials heard testimony in a challenge of North Bend Mayor Ken Hearing’s voter registration, they ruled in Hearing’s favor. King County Elections Director Julie Wise wrote in a Jan. 8 decision, “the challenger (Bryan Stokosa of Snoqalmie) failed to meet the high burden of proof set forth in RCW 29A.08.840,” and “Since the challenged voter (Hearing) has not established a new residence, his residence at the house on Janet Avenue is presumed to continue.” In his complaint, Stokosa claimed that Hearing did not actually live at the Janet Avenue address on his voter registration, but at another address, on Southeast 133rd Street, just outside of North Bend city limits. Voter registration challenges are rare in King County, said elections officials, and in the past, decisions have been issued within about 10 days of the hearing.
Trevor Kostanich admires the view from Mount Si on a rare ski trip Dec. 30. Heavy December snows made the unusual trip possible. Avolio said he’d been waiting 10 years for the opportunity.
MOUNT SI FROM 1 They hiked about as far as they could until they hit snow. From there they ‘skinned,’ hiking uphill in climbing skis, to the top. “The walk up was pretty straightforward and easy. Walking until snow allowed us to skin, which was most of the climb… Then the ski off the summit which is the crux of the thing,” Avolio said. “That’s the thing apparently nobody had done before.” Once at the summit, the skiers took some time to soak in the view and take pictures before skiing their way back down. “It was great to see your town right below you and it’s super fun,
as a passionate skier, to be there with skis on your feet, doing what you love doing on the local hill,” Kostanich said. Initally, Kostanich thought the mountain wouldn’t be very good for skiing but he was surprised by the quality of the snow. “I thought I would just do it once, but the happy surprise was that it was actually a really good ski,” he said. Avolio agreed, saying the snow up at the top was very good, but as they came down the mountain, the snow quality got worse; they had to hike back to the car. “The first thousand feet was really good skiing and then the bottom half was more just getting down without crashing,” Avolio said. “Then into the forest, taking the skis off, bushwhack-
“The first 1,000 feet was really good skiing and then the bottom half was more just getting down without crashing.” Peter Avolio, Mount Si skier ing to the side trail and out. We were done before noon.” Avolio credited their trip to Volken who was not able to go with them that day, but was instrumental in putting together the idea. “Without hanging out with that guy for the last 20 years I wouldn’t have had any business skiing Mount Si,” he said.

Looking out for each other Grief takes a physical toll, as well as an emotional one, on a community
P
rincipal John Belcher sent a message to Mount Si High School students and parents last week, reminding them to, basically, look out for each other over the long weekend. Watch for signs of grief and remember CAROL LADWIG that help is avail- Editor able, both in school and out of it, he advised.
It’s good advice for every day, not just on the heels of the loss of a student; grief is sneaky and debilitating. People in grief can be excellent at convincing themselves they’re not. They may go through the motions, convince everyone they’re “holding up well,” and claim that any irritability or nausea is just because they didn’t sleep much the previous night. Those are all symptoms though. Anger, with or without a reason, is an early stage of grief. So are numbness and weakness, either physical or emotional. People in grief may try to avoid social interactions. They experience insomnia and nausea, suffering from nightmares and lack of appetite. Along with the feeling of weakness, they may have unexplained trembling or difficulty breathing. Not all of the symptoms are things you can see. That’s why we have to
look out for each other, and why there are organizations like the Crisis Clinic (1-866-427-4747) the National Suicide Prevention Hotline (1-800-273-TALK)and the Youth Suicide Prevention Program (http:// www.yspp.org). These organizations, like our local police departments, would rather get the non-emergency call that prevents a crisis, instead of the one that follows a tragedy, but they will always pick up the phone. And in fairness, not every grieving person who takes the “business as usual” approach is in crisis. That’s how some people cope. Studies have found that the physical act of smiling makes people report increased feelings of happiness, for instance, so acting like things are normal might make someone feel back to normal. Eventually, we’ll all get there, each in his or her own way.
Do you feel safe crossing streets as a pedestrian?
Yes I do. But I don’t assume drivers will obey the signs, I don’t assume they are paying attention. Many people think they can multitask while they are driving. Andrea McCabe Snoqualmie
Yeah, sure I do. The Parkway has pretty good stoplights and I think most of the people are pretty attentive crossing the Parkway. Gerald Chrisinger Carnation
I just have to look both ways. I feel pretty safe.
Josiah Clark Snoqualmie
Yeah, I haven’t had any bad experiences. I run fairly often and I haven’t had any problems. Adam Krett Snoqualmie
• Five members of the King County Council introduced a bill that would prohibit many annexations in the Valley until 1993, when King County is required to complete comprehensive plan updates in line with last year’s State Growth Management Act. • Four Valley teens were in an accident at the intersection below Snoqualmie Valley Hospital. Just after 4:30 p.m. in rainy weather, the 16-year-old driver of a Volkswagen Rabbit was westbound on old U.S. 10. Police say he was in the right-turn-only lane but changed lanes just as he approached the intersection. Another vehicle, driven by a 19-year-old coming from the freeway, was preparing to turn left at the intersection. They collided, head on.

Several months ago, the water system was severely damaged by a slide that left the town without water for almost five days. Since then, town officials have considered other sources of supply, including a source on Mount Si to which water rights were obtained, and the purchase of water from the Town of Snoqualmie. • North Bend firemen answered an alarm at midnight Friday and extinguished a fire set in the Salvation Army collection box on the Lee Brothers parking lot.

I was very offended by a recent email sent by our honorable governor, Jay Inslee, stating “But make no mistake, the NRA and their friends in the gun lobby are a powerful and destructive force.” I challenge him to prove this statement. The NRA is the only organization that is being blamed for actions taken by persons who are not members. The NRA has a proud and glorious history of teaching gun safety and responsible gun ownership. Just because we stand for the Constitution and our rights to own guns does not give anyone the right to slander us. I would like to see an apology to all NRA members and friends. I certainly will not vote for an irresponsible individual like this for any elected office. Dee Williamson North Bend

tree recycling program again this year. We would like to thank some folks that gave us wonderful help in accomplishing our goal to provide this service for the Fall City, Snoqualmie, and North Bend areas. Snoqualmie Ridge Storage didn’t hesitate to donate a U-Haul trailer for the Scouts to use to transport trees all day long. This was a generous gift. More than once, drivers from the Snoqualmie Sahara Pizza just showed up with multiple pizzas that the working Scouts devoured happily. What an amazing surprise. Asplundh Tree Expert company donated chippers along with a number of experienced personnel to shred the trees and remove the chips. They were incredibly efficient and friendly and worked until the last tree was delivered. Finally, the Boy Scouts of Troops 115, 466, 425, and 701 deserve kudos for all of their hard work in recycling the trees. Many of you made donations to the Boy Scouts that day. Your generous gifts will send a large number of boys to camp next summer. Thank you. Julie Brown, Redmond
Rep. Rodne owes people an apology Representative Jay Rodne recently attempted to defend his defenseless remarks that “Islam is incompatible with Western culture,” Muslims are “barbarians,” and people should “arm themselves.”
In his attempt, Rodne portrayed himself as the victim. He said he was just exercising his First Amendment rights, but since it was the cruelty of his comments and not whether he had the right to speak, his is a moot point. Rodne also claims his remarks were taken out of context. If so, why did he delete them from his website so we can’t judge the context for ourselves? Perhaps he meant the historical context of the recent Paris atrocity? If so, that is misleading because Rodne suggested the meaning of his words had been changed. Nevertheless, his ethnic attack was extremely inappropriate within the historical context. Is Rodne suggesting his anger over the Paris atrocity permits a blanket attack on a religious minority? Violence against Muslims escalates after incidents such as Paris. The historical context required calming words, not inflammatory remarks. Rodne says the criticism is political, as if that de-legitimizes the criticism of his harsh words. Of course the criticism is political. Rodne’s remarks were political. He was stirring up fear of Islam, letting religious bigots know he is one with them, and courting those who think more guns is the answer to every act of gun violence. Representative Jay Rodne owes his legislative district, the people of Washington State, and those of the Islamic faith a sincere apology. Roger Ledbetter Snoqualmie

Teen Valley Basketball League starts season After one week of play, the club basketball league reports the following standings: Snoqualmie Falls is in first place following a 50-46 win over North Bend, and Meadowbrook is in second with a 47-42 win over Snoqualmie. North Bend is third and Snoqualmie, fourth.
Staff Reporter
The Mount Si gymnastics team won their meet on Thursday, Jan. 14 against Skyline and Inglemoor with a total score of 166.1. Head coach Kelly Loranger said in addition to winning over Skyline and Inglemoor, the match resulted in a great team score. “I think this was our highest team score of the season,” Loranger said. “Out of my nine girls that competed in the all-around they all finished in the top 11.” Loranger said that the team struggled with the uneven parallel bars event, but feels that it may have been an off day for some of the athletes and they are working on correcting some of those mistakes. Loranger also said that adding new vaults
and new routines into the bars competition helped the team’s score. “We took first across the board. Beam was our weakest event, but it seems like it was an off day, but we will make those corrections,” Loranger said. “Needs some improvement on beams, but at this point everything is pretty set and it’s just polishing.” Mount Si will face Eastlake in their next match at Interlake and on Jan. 28 will return home for a match with Issaquah. “I think they are peaking at the right time and I’m excited to watch them improve, we are not at the top yet and there is still room for improvement,” Loranger said. “We’ve got a great and talented group of girls that make my job easy.”

Ski area dedicates run to resident
The Snoqualmie Pass community suffered a loss last year when lifelong resident and recent college graduate Sarrah Powers was killed in a car crash March 29. They celebrated her memory Jan. 9, when a new ski run at Summit East was dedicated to her. Sarrah’s Run is a new “top to bottom,” blue-level trail says Summit spokesman Guy Lawrence, connecting the old Rampart Trail at the
top of the mountain to a trail leading to the Rampart Chair installed last year. “It was such a tragedy when Sarrah died,” Lawrence said, and her family was such an important part of the Hyak community, that people quickly asked about a memorial. “They wanted to memorialize her in some way, since she was such an awesome girl.” Summit staff had been considering renaming the
run at the same time, so they approached Sarrah’s parents, Billy and Sandy Powers about it. “It was really a community effort, which is kind of the way it should be,” he said. The new Sarrah’s Run was dedicated Jan. 9, with about 80 people in attendance. Following the dedication, Lawrence said, the group skied the run together and made a video, to be posted on the Summit website.

Boeing in Puget Sound
Boeing moves into its second century
B
Staying competitive a key focus for 2016
oeing wrapped up a strong performance in 2015 with a record number of airplanes produced and many other accomplishments. But its centennial year will be challenging with a major focus on being more competitive seen as key to the company’s long-term success. Thanks to a tremendous team effort, in 2015 Boeing produced a record 762 commercial airplanes. In 2014 the company delivered 723 airplanes – the previous year, 648. Climbing this hill was not easy, and the entire company takes pride in this achievement, which leads the industry. Other accomplishments in 2015 include building the first 737 MAX, achieving firm configuration of the new 777X airplane design and celebrating the first flight of the KC-46A Pegasus refueling tanker. Boeing also set a record for parts and services orders, expanded the 737 Seattle Delivery Center at Boeing Field and hosted China President Xi Jinping. It’s a different dynamic when it comes to new orders for airplanes. In 2015, Boeing booked 768 orders – a substantial number, but a 50-percent drop from 1,432 in the previous year. And Airbus recently reported they booked more than 1,000 orders – besting Boeing by nearly 25 percent.
NET NUMBER OF PLANE ORDERS IN 2015
1,036 768
AIRBUS
BOEING
In looking at the numbers, the important thing to note is that airline customers’ priorities have shifted. They are more focused than ever before on the prices they pay for airplanes. Price is what matters and Boeing must respond. “We build and support great airplanes – still the best in the world – but Airbus has improved its quality while
maintaining lower pricing – presenting a tough choice for even our longest-standing customers,” said Ray Conner, Boeing vice chairman and president and CEO of Commercial Airplanes. Boeing believes the competition with Airbus will grow more aggressive this year – especially since timing and external forces could affect large airplane sales. To ensure its long-term position in the market, in 2016 Boeing is sharpening its focus on designing and building quality while accelerating efforts to reduce costs. “This is the first time in our history where we are competing in every single market segment,” Conner said. “It’s head-to-head competition with Airbus, and we’re also preparing for future competition from China, Brazil, Canada and other countries.” The good news is that Boeing announced production rates will climb again this year as the 767 program moves to build two airplanes per month and the 787 rate climbs to build 12 per month. Meanwhile, the 737 program will lay the groundwork for next year’s jump from 42 to 47 jets per month. In July, Boeing will celebrate 100 years of worldchanging innovation. It’s a reminder that together with our local communities, we do great things – each and every year.

Boeing and engineering union reach tentative agreement on contract extension
B
oeing and the Society of Professional Engineering Employees in Aerospace (SPEEA), representing more than 20,000 employees, recently announced a tentative agreement on a new six-year contract extension, following several weeks of discussions. “This tentative agreement recognizes the significant contributions of our engineering and technical workforce and reinforces Boeing’s commitment to the Puget Sound region,” said Boeing Vice Chairman and Commercial Airplanes President and CEO Ray Conner.
Highlights of the tentative agreement include: n Market leading compensation n Expanded workforce stability protections relative to Puget Sound engineering work movement n A transition benefit to a new retirement program n Modest increases in employee contributions for market-leading health care “These negotiations were possible because SPEEA and Boeing decided not to let our areas of disagreement prevent us from making progress on items where we do agree,” said Ray Goforth, SPEEA executive director in a news statement. “These contract extensions are the result of a lot of hard work and good will. Hopefully, this gives us a template for the future.” For additional information, visit www.boeing.com/speea.
Linking up for the long game: Boeing, Callaway fulfill need for speed Golf company calls on aerospace engineers to help design faster club
W
hen engineers from Boeing and the Callaway Golf Co. got together for a cross-industry collaboration last year, the knowledge and experience applied to airplanes on the runway resulted in a golf club that can drive a ball farther down a fairway. An innovation by Boeing engineers to modify air flow around the club contributed to what they have validated through testing as a faster driver — Callaway’s XR 16. The project began last year when Callaway sought the expertise of the world’s leading aerospace company. “We’ve made a lot of strides over the years to improve aerodynamic efficiency in our products, but we decided it might be a good idea to call on the experts at Boeing and ask, ‘could your expertise help us design a faster club?’” said Alan Hocknell, senior vice president of research and development at Callaway. That simple question led to a special assignment for a small team of engineers led by Wayne Tygert, chief project engineer of 787 Airplane Development, and Jeffrey Crouch, Boeing Senior Technical Fellow, Aero Flow Physics, who saw it as an opportunity to learn from experts in other industries. “Reducing drag, controlling air flow and improving aerodynamic performance is a critical part of airplane de-

sign and something we take a lot of pride in doing extremely well,” Crouch said. “I was very curious to see how we could translate our experience to golf club design.”
Newer team members like Adam Clark, an aerodynamics engineer in Flight Sciences, and Harrison Chau, a configuration design engineer in Airplane Configuration and Integration, gained valuable experience on shortflow product development and innovation cycles. Despite the collective knowledge of the Boeing and Callaway group, the project presented some unique challenges, the engineers said. For example, unlike airplanes, drivers move through space with rapid changes in orientation. Crouch, with Clark and Chau, determined that the best method to increase the speed of the driver was to use a local air-flow modifier, called the Speed Step, on top of the club head. The Speed Step essentially alters the flow of air around the driver head enough to improve its speed from the top of the swing through impact with a golf ball. The increased speed upon impact can lead to greater distance for the driven golf ball — something every golfer of any talent level seeks. “I love my job as an aerodynamicist at Boeing, but it’s always great to learn from engineers in other industries,” Clark said. “This was a great opportunity to push myself and grow my skills and experience.”

Seattle Seahawks linebacker KJ Wright pops the question in Boeing’s Everett facility.
eattle Seahawks linebacker KJ Wright (#50) can be forgiven if years from now he doesn’t remember everything he saw during a tour in late December of Boeing’s facility in Everett, Wash. That’s because his VIP tour of the Everett Flightline and factory ended with him on bended knee before his longtime girlfriend, Nathalie. As two Boeing employees, wearing bow ties with their coveralls, unfurled a banner saying, “Nathalie – will you marry me?” down the side of a 787, Wright popped the question before his shocked girlfriend and her family who were visiting for the holidays. Needless to say, the answer was yes! Wright devised the unique proposal plan because his nowfiancee’s father is an aviation enthusiast who he knew would enjoy a tour of Boeing’s Everett site. Wright was joined on the tour by another notable guest – teammate Jimmy Graham – a registered pilot.

Airplane 101: Teachers become students
A group of teachers from the Puget Sound area attended Airplane 101, hosted by Boeing as part of the company’s STEM outreach efforts.
As part of its STEM outreach efforts, Boeing gives teachers an interactive lesson about airplanes and aerodynamics they can take back to their classrooms
B
ecoming students for the day, a group of Puget Sound area teachers participated in interactive exercises illustrating basic aerodynamic principles such as lift, thrust, drag and weight that they could take back to their classrooms during a recent day-long Airplane 101 class in Everett, Wash. The program, hosted by Flight Services Marketing and the Museum of Flight, is one way Boeing aims to build students’ interest and skills in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). By bringing teachers in to experience airplanes up close and talk with experts, Boeing gives them a unique perspective on the principles of flight, which they can then share with their students. Larry Seto, product marketing manager of flight training for Flight Services, led the teachers through the interactive exercises. Later, the lessons came to life when the group toured the Commercial Airplanes factory and the 787 Dreamliner static test bed, where they saw how Boeing simulates stresses on the airframe.
“I now can offer my students realworld examples of careers in aviation,” one teacher wrote in an anonymous evaluation of the class. Another wrote, “I plan to use these teaching techniques and examples in my class.” The teachers indicated that touring the production line — and taking aerospace knowledge beyond books — was particularly important to them. “I like having personal experience to refer to when teaching,” one teacher wrote. As Boeing prepares to celebrate its centennial in 2016, preparing and inspiring future innovators is a key focus, and programs like this can help influence the education environment, according to Sherry Carbary, vice president of Boeing Flight Services. “Teachers play an incredible role in shaping our future workforce,” Carbary said “This was a great opportunity to give teachers the tools they need to incorporate basic aviation principles into their curriculum.”

January 16, 1950 – January 9, 2016
Peter Ross Reed, 65, passed away on January 9, 2016, in North Bend, WA. Peter was born on January 16, 1950, in Seattle, WA, the son of Garey and Vera Reed. He is survived by his wife, Rita; daughter, Alina; and was the oldest of two surviving siblings, Douglas and Mark Reed. Peter was raised in Kirkland, WA, attending Rose Hill Elementary, Rose Hill Junior High, and Lake Washington High School (Go Kangs!). He lived most of his life in the eastside area of Washington, with the exception of living in Anchorage, Alaska, from 1984 to 1988. He was very active and athletic through the years. He loved swimming, tennis, baseball, biking, boating, fishing, and especially wrestling in his high school years. He had a passion for the outdoors that he shared with his daughter, which took them on many adventures together including sky diving, rock climbing, river rafting, and scuba diving. He was also an avid reader, enjoying photography and traveling (especially in Hawaii and Alaska). Peter met his wife, Rita, in Anchorage, Alaska, in 1984. They married on March 5, 1988 and moved to Bothell, Washington. Their daughter, Alina, was born in 1993. The three moved in 1995 from Bothell to their dream location in the shadow of Mt. Si, in North Bend, Washington. They built their home and remained in North Bend, where Peter fostered his love for his family. For most of Peter’s career he was a glazier, working for the Glazier’s Union, Local 188, from 1980-2012. A recession lead him to Anchorage, Alaska, where he worked as a glazier for the International Union of Painters & Allied Trades, Local 1140 (now Local 1959), from 1984 to 1988. He took a great deal of pride in his work and in being a union member. Peter will be deeply missed and will always be remembered for his confidence, his kind and gentle demeanor, and his deep love for his family, friends, and beloved pets.

for the school had been set up and staff, including Principal Amy Wright who had been principal at Opstad, were planning for kindergarten registration. A tree theme was selected for the school’s entry and is repeated in the building’s interior, Stokes said. Elements of dendrochronology, the scientific process of analyzing a tree’s rings, will be included in the building, too he said, presenting several possible design elements, such as red, green and blue banners to mark the different wings of the building. The design process for the sixth elementary school process was streamlined by the school board’s decision to use the existing designs for Cascade View Elementary School. Babbit Neuman, the company that built Cascade View, is also doing the construction for the new school. The 71,000 square-foot building will have 31 classrooms and a student capacity of 650. The estimated cost is $35 million Attendance boundaries for the new building were approved by the school board Nov. 4. The board is expected to select a name for the school at its Jan. 28 meeting, 6:30 p.m. at Snoqualmie City Hall.

Lymphedema: Effective local treatment Lymphedema is a chronic condition in which excess fluid collects in tissues, causing swelling of a body part. The extremities are most commonly affected. Snoqualmie Hospital Rehabilitation Clinic offers effective lymphedema management therapy, here in the Valley. Controlling the swelling is important as it can become permanent and cause irreversible limb distortions. In addition, other skin conditions can develop and the body's defenses are impaired. Lymphedema can be a result of medical conditions that lead to damage of the lymphatic system, including radiation treatment for cancer, venous insufficiency or trauma, such as surgery. Breast cancer treatment is the most common cause in the United States. There is no cure for lymphedema, but the symptoms can be managed with appropriate treatment. “Many people think they have to live with lymphedema or that it will go away or even that there isn’t anything anyone can do,” Fauzia Karmali, certified lymphedema specialist for Snoqualmie Valley Hospital, said. “Our Complete Decongestive Therapy is highly effective at reducing the volume of swelling and
maintaining the decreased volume with compression garments.” Karmali earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Physical Therapy from McGill University in Canada in 1996. She is also a Certified Lymphedema Therapist and a Certified Manual Physical Therapist. A CLT is required to complete a minimum of 135 hours of training and is highly qualified in recognizing and treating lymphedema.
Symptoms of Lymphedema - Swelling of part of the arm or leg or entire arm or leg, including fingers or toes - Swelling in the trunk, chest or armpit - A feeling of heaviness, tightness or aching in an arm or leg - Restricted range of motion in an arm or leg - Recurring infections in the affected limb - Hardening and thickening of the skin on an arm or leg Treatment for lymphedema consists of a gentle massaging technique, called manual lymphatic drainage, followed by
Fauzia Karmali, RPT, CMPT, CLT
the application of compression wrappings that are worn until the next session. Once maximum fluid reduction is met, patients are measured for compression garments to keep the swelling down and monitored in follow-up visits. “The goal for treatment is to decongest the swollen limb and prevent the return of swelling,” Karmali said. “We teach patients special self-massage techniques and show them how to correctly wear the fitted compression garments so they can manage their symptoms at home.” Lymphedema Therapy requires a referral from your medical provider. For more information about lymphedema therapy, contact the Snoqualmie Hospital Rehabilitation Clinic at 425-831-2376 or visit www.snoqualmiehospital.org. Located inside Snoqualmie Valley Hospital at 9801 Frontier Avenue SE, Snoqualmie, WA 98065. 1513373

Semi-clogged air filters hurt fuel economy for the same reason you don’t like to run with a potato in your mouth. The question is, when is your filter dirty? Under a Norman Rockwell schedule of small-town errand running and church duty, an air filter might not see much grit. But grimy city surface streets or just looking at a dirt road on a map are often enough to overwhelm air filters. This one is about conditions. If you go near dirt, the air filter may need changing twice as often as the schedule calls for. Your Dealer should inspect your air filter on every visit, follow their recommendations
