Hi West Seattle,
We need a sales manager for Alki Bike and Board, one of Seattle’s oldest bike shops. With the restaurant slowdown and layoffs it seems a former restaurant manager would be a good fit for our busy shop. Very livable wages would be available for a qualified manager. We are a community 1st business and would want like minded associates. Please send resumes through this media. Looking forward to working with you!

Please read neighbors. We the tenants at Alaska House would not be posting this if we did not need help. We have ask for third-party help from everywhere we can think of and they all keep saying it’s a civil matter the only person to really help you is an attorney. Please read our GoFundMe and read how this management defrauded the US Army. So if they don’t care about what they do to the army they sure font care about seniors and disabled people who are low income. If there is a civil attorney that would like to offer us pro bono help that would be appreciated as well. I myself personally have been discriminated against because of the color of my skin and for standing up for others in my building and teaching them the federal laws and helping my neighbor’s get in contact with third-party help to help with their issues with the office. Because I was an advocate for my neighbors I faced a just cause eviction and I wo. I won a anti-harassment court case against me by the management. We are reaching out to our neighbors in the west Seattle Community to please hear our voice. To understand that we may smile when we’re out and about but at night a lot of us cry ourselves to sleep. Please help us have our voices heard and fight against this corrupt management company. Thank you for reading.

Hi, I’d really appreciate it if you would share or donate to this GoFundMe. https://www.gofundme.com/f/seniors-and-disabled-discrimination?utm_source=customer&utm_medium=more&utm_campaign=p_cf+share-flow-1

It was midnight. It was super loud in North Admiral. It woke me up from a deep sleep. For some reason, it’s discussed in the gazillion-comment discussion on the home page about last night’s protest.

She was saying “thank you” instead of “no s**t Sherlock”. She was quite aware of the situation. As a dog owner who’s had my dog attacked in the off-leash area, I can understand her worry. Perhaps she was there next to the park on purpose to rehabilitate one of the dogs to the park after being viciously attacked. I, of course, have no idea why they were there, but perhaps you don’t either.

The Sylvan Ridge Community has received and posted SDOT signs to remind drivers that people live along Sylvan Way SW and for those of you who chose to enter the Sylvan Ridge subdivision, please note the “20 is Plenty” signage. Children are at play in our neighborhood.

The Sylvan Ridge community is working with SDOT to cut down on the number of accidents in the Sylvan Way SW corridor which is now a designated detour route to the 1st Ave South Bridge. There have been 37 accidents in this corridor in the last 2-1/2 years and that doesn’t even count the accidents at the intersection of Delridge Way SW and SW Orchard.

Please slow down and drive safely!

Hello,
We have kitchen cabinets from Cardell cabinetry brand.
There were here when we moved in 10 years ago. lately, some side runners that help the drawers slide in and out have come loose. We can’t figure out to to take the drawers out. Can’t find a release latch. We need someone who would know how to work on them and fix them.

We have CL’s 100 up/100 down service and have been very happy with it. Occasionally there are days where our router (a D-Link) freezes up and our wi-fi signal either disappears or shows up but doesn’t allow a connection. Wired connections go down too at that point. It will operate for weeks with no problems, then we’ll have a bad day with lots of router restarting.
For example, I did have to re-start the router this morning but it was good until late last night. I suspect that it burps sometimes due to CL network work but haven’t been able to track down the exact problem. I did figure out a hack to use my own router (not the one they want to rent you) so it may be less resilient to coming back after whatever network work they are doing, if that’s the problem.

Other than that we’ve been happy with the uptime, the speed (especially since we upgraded to the 100/100 plan) and the price which has actually dropped with the increased speed.

I think that CL fiber is great- if you are still trying to use CL DSL service I would look elsewhere. That’s a dying technology.

I could use someone, too. I’ve read that it isn’t a good idea to power-wash a roof; it can dislodge shingles.

CHARLOTTE, NC — Hospitalization for coronavirus illnesses in North Carolina rose to record heights for at least the third day in a row Wednesday as the state reported an increase of 1,435 confirmed cases of the virus in a day.

The new batch of cases of novel coronavirus, which causes COVID-19, increased the state’s total to more than 77,000 lab-confirmed cases, according to North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services data.

The state’s virus-related death tally rose to 1,441 Wednesday, 21 deaths higher than reported Tuesday.

As of Wednesday, 10 percent of COVID-19 tests conducted in the state were positive.

Hospitalizations rose by five patients to 994 patients reported Wednesday, marking the fourth day of increases and the highest number of patients treated for COVID-19 reported in the state yet, according to data.

Ventilator readiness remained stable with 73 percent — or about 2,374 — of the state’s supply available for use.

Hello 2 Much Whine, I get what you are asking, but no, he was not trying to warn me of my headlights being off. He brighted me for an extended period, not a friendly flash. It was clear he was trying to guard the pedestrian, but there was not a need to. Also, he did this as I was slowing down and he kept them on until I was stopped. I was already in the process so it was completely unnecessary.

It’s really not a big deal but it was something unexpected and unnecessary. It confused the pedestrian and myself. Even his hazard lights were pretty unnecessary. I get it, people on 35th think everyone is out to mow down pedestrians, but I’m very much on the side of pedestrians and always try to keep an eye out and stop for them. It would personally never occur to me to try to do what this other driver did, and it made me think it is something he’s done before and will eventually catch someone totally off guard and cause a worse problem. When you see a pedestrian, it is your responsibility to stop and let them cross. That is all that is necessary and the safest thing to do, IMO.

It was just very strange and added confusion and frustration to a situation where there should not have been any.

As I was driving north on 35th this morning, I saw a car on the opposite side of the road stop in the lane with hazards on. I also saw a pedestrian trying to cross from that side of the road so I started to slow down intending to let the person cross. However, next, the car on the other side of the road started moving again into the center lane at an angle, which caused the pedestrian to get confused and go back to the curb, and also confused me because I had thought the car had stopped to let the person cross.

Next, the driver put his high beams on and it was clear then that he had purposefully moved to angle his car so the high beams would shine directly in my eyes! I was already slowing down with intention to stop, so this was completely unnecessary. Not to mention, dangerous!! That IS NOT an acceptable use of high beams.

To the other driver, if you keep doing that, you are going to eventually cause an accident. Knock it off! All you did was cause confusion and irritation because I was already in the process of stopping. Thankfully myself and the pedestrian figured out what you were doing and they were safely able to cross. However good intentioned, this was not acceptable. It is not YOUR job to force other drivers to stop for pedestrians by using your high beams in that way. Please learn how to drive safely and use your high beams for their intended purpose.

Wow…Thanks! Too bad it’s gone. I went to King County’s iMap Parcel Viewer & set the base map to 2007 & it looks to be already gone. The only map before that was 1936 & it shows a field there before the radio facility. Reminds me of Fort Ward on the south end of Bainbridge Island where there was a secret government radio intercept facility named “Station S” covering the Pacific during WWII in addition to the gun emplacements. They intercepted the messages instructing the Japanese Ambassador to break off negotiations with Washington D.C. right before the bombing of Pearl Harbor. I’ve been there a few times. Again, thank you!

Sorry that happened to you. I couldn’t tell from the video, but it might very well be a driver I’ve had a problem with in the past (fat, white, middle-aged, if I recall correctly).

Me and my daughter were waiting for the 50 at the start/end of the route down Alki, along with a bunch of other people. The bus sits there with the doors locked until the driver is ready to start the route, me and the kid and a bunch of other people are obviously waiting–he never unlocks the doors, just starts driving away. Me and someone else knock on the door as the bus is pulling away, he glares at us, stops, opens the door, and then yells at everyone for “hitting” his bus! He angrily let everyone on, but never came close to admitting he was the one screwed up.

Anonyme is right, in addition to filing a complaint you should see if you can file a suit. I filed a complaint when it happened to us, but not sure it did any good…

IQ test, indeed. Nor do I sympathize with the enablers who think it’s just mean to confront maskless individuals in supermarkets, etc. If these people truly have underlying illnesses that prevent them from wearing a mask, then they are the last people who should be barefaced out in public. If their condition actually exists (highly doubtful) then they should be in quarantine for their own safety. It should be written into the (unenforced) law that if you can’t (won’t) wear a mask, then you must stay home. It’s well known that covidiots, already low on the IQ scale as noted, are using unsubstantiated medical conditions as an excuse to flaunt their ignorance. Remove the loophole. Or, give them all a maskless island to live on, along with the anti-vaxxers, and let Darwinism run its course. A tanning bed should be all the intervention they need.

WHY SEATTLE IS IN TROUBLE
Only in Seattle do the tree trimmers make $160,000 per year!

Today, our investigation is an Editor’s Pick at Forbes: Why Seattle And Their Police Department Is In Trouble.

Our auditors dug into how Seattle is actually spending taxpayer dollars. We found:

tree trimmers lopped off $160,604
the chief librarian made $197,704
electricians earned $271,070
electrical lineworkers made $307,387
police officers earned up to $414,543
Last year, 601 city employees out-earned the mayor ($199,593), and the mayor out-earned 49 out of 50 state governors (top pay: $202,000).

The city council member ($131,336) leading the charge to defund the police made more than the members of the New York general assembly — the most highly compensated state legislature in the country ($130,000).

After several attempts, and getting no response from our City Council West Seattle Representative, I’m throwing this idea out to the West Seattle general public: Now that we’re entering Phase 2 of the reopening plan for King County, I have an idea that would benefit our restaurants/businesses and patrons, as well. Using the California Ave SW area (say between SW Edmonds Street and SW Oregon Street) as an example, I recommend that that area be made into a pedestrian area only, allowing the restaurants/businesses to expand out into the sidewalks and outside lanes of the street, reserving the two middle lanes as a pedestrian walkway. This approach would allow the businesses in that area to safely space tables/merchandise apart to more easily observe the 6-foot social distancing effort, as well as serve more patrons than they would be able to under the current arrangement. Studies have shown that in areas that have gone pedestrian only, businesses have flourished. By making that area pedestrian only, it doesn’t impede anyone from getting to their businesses or living quarters, since that can all be accomplished utilizing the streets that already exist behind the businesses. I think this would really work and have a positive effect for all involved. I use the California Ave area as an example only, but this could be utilized in many areas that have a concentration of restaurants/businesses open to the public, such as Alki. There’s no reason traffic has to be in these areas – as a matter of fact, it’s probably safer in some respects not to have traffic zooming thru those crowded areas anyway. So I challenge you, Lisa Herbold, to look into this recommendation – SOON! We need to help our businesses succeed – NOW! And since it looks like our shopping and restaurant options are going to be limited due to Covid-19, compounded by the years-long bridge closure, it’s more important than ever that local businesses on our “island” be successful and that we, the public, also have the resources we need and enjoy.

Here’s another perspective, directly from an ex-police officer.

It’s very much worth reading, but to summarize, it demonstrates how the system within the force is engineered to produce and encourage bad cops.

A quote from the essay:
“And that’s the point of what I’m telling you. Whether you were my sergeant, legally harassing an old woman, me, legally harassing our residents, my fellow trainees bullying the rest of us, or ‘the bad apples’ illegally harassing ‘sh!tbags’, we were all in it together. I knew cops that pulled women over to flirt with them. I knew cops who would pepper spray sleeping bags so that homeless people would have to throw them away. I knew cops that intentionally provoked anger in suspects so they could claim they were assaulted. I was particularly good at winding people up verbally until they lashed out so I could fight them. Nobody spoke out. Nobody stood up. Nobody betrayed the code.

None of us protected the people (you) from bad cops.

This is why ‘All cops are bastards.’ Even your uncle, even your cousin, even your mom, even your brother, even your best friend, even your spouse, even me. Because even if they wouldn’t Do The Thing themselves, they will almost never rat out another officer who Does The Thing, much less stop it from happening.”
