The Polar Pioneer, One of Two Oil Rigs Bound for the Arctic, Will Arrive in Port Angeles Any Day Now: Its transport ship, the Blue Marlin, gave the Coast Guard in Seattle 96 hours' notice last Friday. It was the Blue Marlin that six Greenpeace activists scaled in the middle of the ocean, 750 miles northwest of Hawaii. The volunteers withstood six days on the underside of the rig's main platform, but decided to leave at the prospect of seven-meter ocean swells.

Hillary's Campaign Launch Video Was Good: Until that bank-like logo showed up at the end.

And Now to Critique the Logo, We Bring You Everyone Currently Living: World chess champion Garry Kasparov dissed it, old photos were recaptioned to show kids dissing it, New York Times writers found street signs it reminded them of, I pointed out that Virginia Woolf did it better, others pointed out it's a FedEx knock off, Wikipedia either was joking or has completely lost it, and it was said that "whoever charged Hillary to design that logo has one hell of a hustle."

Hillary, Show Some Leadership, Show Some Taste, and Change Your Logo: And execute whoever was responsible for it in a square—maybe with an arrow?

Alpacas, Rabbits, Chickens, and a Miniature Horse Were Killed Overnight: In a barn fire near Duvall, KOMO is reporting.
