Gunfire investigation in West Seattle last night. Gunshots were reported for the second night in a row in West Seattle’s North Delridge neighborhood near 23rd and Juneau. No injuries; it may have been a drive-by shooting.
The Wall Street Journal visits our fair city. Sure there are the requisite grunge and Space Needle references, but this WSJ writer spent a long weekend here then wrote this travel article about it. We think her itinerary was rather well planned.
Randy Jokela, Seattle Police officer who wrote 80% of pot citations is back to work. His behavior is still under investigation as he apparently decided who should be cited based on a coin toss. Good thing he started working again after last weekend’s Hempfest.
Bill Gates, Satya Nadella, and Jeff Bezos take on the ice-bucket challenge. Some of the greatest minds put their creativity to work and others did it the old-fashioned way. And Macklemore took it overseas!
Kent Police found developmentally disabled woman. Police located her at 4 p.m. yesterday and she is safe and sound. No further details have been released yet.

Heap Troupe will turn a four-way crossing into a performance, one of dozens of encounters planned for this year’s WALKDONTRUN. The free, all-ages art walk stretches across more than 20 blocks. From 11…
At Two Dot Schoolhouse, Ruth Marie Tomlinson Builds an Artistic Community
For nearly 20 years, the Seattle artist and her husband have welcomed artists, writers, and musicians to a historic Montana schoolhouse. Now they’re searching for its next stewards.
At her solo exhibition last year at The Vestibule, Seattle artist Ruth Marie Tomlinson presented a new series of work inspired by her close readings of British nature writer J.A. Baker’s The Peregrine and Icelandic author Sjón’s The Blue Fox. As if on sheets torn from a sketchbook, her pages included excerpts and outtakes of…

HOOKED ON KNOCKS Admittedly, I am late to this one.

To be honest, my football knowledge starts with knowing what a touchdown is and doesn’t…
