It's City Light, the publicly owned, self-supporting, tax-paying utility, that wants to give you a free LED bulb. And the offer is for any City Light customer - including the seven suburban communities outside of Seattle that are served by the utility.

it makes me mad how inaccurate that shutterstock illustration of the planets is.

Left work in Ballard on Tuesday a 4pm. Didn't get home until 830. In between my multiple attempts to escape Queen Anne hill I got some froyo at Menchies, read comic books at the public library, and had dinner and drinks at Dexter and Hayes. To top it off I was totally frazzled and gave myself an excuse to drink heavily once I arrived home in CC. So win win?

Get the free LED

And the UW is never covered by city, county, or port laws, since it's a State University and always has been. Which is why you shouldn't smoke MJ on campus...

This post makes it sound like light rail won't be running downtown because there are no major events in the city this weekend, which would've totally pissed me off.

In actuality, light rail isn't running because of track maintenance.

@3 - So what you're saying is we should do this more often? I suspect you'll get your wish.

Wow, over five million in pubic expenditures for such a touchy-feely-lefty-feel-good thing for our silly little mayor to do.

@2: The image is to list the planets, not have them to scale in size and distance - if that's what you meant.

Last year Comicon reached maximum capacity, sold every ticket, everyday, consumed all of the show space.
It's a major event by WSCC standards.

Just one tidbit of national news, so that I can join the discussion...that's all I'm asking for. "The Morning News" used to be my favorite part of Slog when it was about half regional and half national. Thanks for listening.

Those planet images are WAAAAY off scale. Pluto is smaller than most of Jupiter's moon.

@18 - Pluto is smaller than OUR moon. The Original Moon. The Classic Moon.

Housing and real shelter is a human right.
Just like water and food.

If the heartless capitalist economy is unwilling to solve the issue of poverty, and it clearly isn't, then we have to allow people to make their own shelter, unmolested by the police.

Seattle should definitely allow encampments.

Please wait...
