In response to these post-Covid trends, and also to Sound Transit’s rail expansion, Metro says it will “restructure bus service rather than restore service to pre-pandemic conditions.” It plans “a targeted, income-based approach to fares."

There can be no more American story than the story of how this gun, powered by politicians and marketers, became the high-performance weapon of choice by evildoers around the world.

The festival orchestra has attracted some of the best first-chair players from around the country.

The symmetry was inescapable: As the fires swept into Jasper, consuming one-third of structures in the town, our planet was recording the warmest day in recorded history.

Some pure forms of Native language still exist.  For example, the elementary school at Taholah, on the Quinault Reservation in Washington State, teaches Quileute to youngsters.

Although it has been ten years coming, time now is up for small businesses (less than 500 workers) to comply.

The horseshoe theory was considered simplistic by serious political scientists, some of whom even called it nonsense, but it can be illustrative and fun.

As good as wines can be right upon release, they have just made the transit from vineyard to fermenter to aging vessel(s) to bottle to warehouse to… wherever. They’re exhausted!

Protect Progress, a political action committee backed by cryptocurrency billionaires—some of whom also back Donald Trump—plowed $1.4 million into an independent campaign in support of Democrat Emily Randall.

Harris leads Trump by 14 points in a new poll, and Bob Ferguson leads Dave Reichert by 9 points in the gubernatorial contest.

You're huffing an puffing and pushing your muscles for the joy of spectacular scenery and the absolute stillness of sunset on a glacial lake.

I think there's something very special about women’s sports. I would never advocate for getting rid of that. I would advocate for expanding the way that we think.

The dashed hopes of those times offer a distant mirror on America's current predicament. The "light at the end of the tunnel" turned out to be an oncoming train.

Twenty-two percent of all energy generated in the U.S. is used for lighting. Street lighting and commercial lighting are both tremendously inefficient, with about a quarter of their light uselessly going into the sky, reflecting off suspended dust and water droplets. This washes out the light from the stars.

On an August, 2020 day, Joe Biden, who was the Democratic Party’s choice for president, called Sen. Kamala Harris and asked, “Are you ready...

Mike Johnson tried another tactic on the day of Biden’s announcement. He said Biden must resign immediately. He conflated not running for president with not being fit to serve as president and then continued the narrative that the Democrats should not be allowed to choose someone other than Biden. 

Three components of Trump’s ego-infused heel offer a rich reward from the slings of his political assailant. It's all about the ego.

If we had imagined that one of the political parties would be in crisis, we would have had our sights fixed on the G.O.P.

My suggestion is that the Democratic Party should try to enlist Kelly and other former Trump officials to repeat the reasons for their defections.

Because vineyards are located in agricultural communities and many wineries occupy splendid rural settings, I believe that there is a special type of community which they inhabit and build.

It just so happens that the DNC has been building out the infrastructure to support secure virtual polling of its convention delegates wherever they may be in advance of the convention.

In previous decades, Seattleites have beaten many paths to Italy and almost always count themselves better for it and encourage others to do the same.  Hinshaw and Savino are clearly among them.

In 92 minutes initial grace turned to grievance, uplifting prose gave way to personal attacks ("crazy Nancy Pelosi"), praise for dictatorial rulers, partisan hyperbole ("They're destroying our country"), and ceaseless self-praise.

What could be better for the strongman image than surviving an assassination attempt with a bloodied face and clenched fist?

At the old clarinetist's last house, a backyard boasted an imitation of the Parthenon and the fence around it consisted, in part, of old bedsteads. 

Reid Saaris is still winning the money game for Superintendent, raising upwards of $140,000 more than the two-time incumbent, according to the PDC. 

My strange friendship with the Czech political dynasty in Chicago, and how a missed assassination attempt led to multiple tragedies.

That defiant Trump image seems bound to haunt an already tumultuous campaign season, tilting prospects even further in Trump’s favor.

Chess master Attorney General Bob Ferguson is up with a “shock and awe” blitz of TV spots, introducing himself to the voters but also trying to define his presumed Republican opponent as “anti-choice Dave Reichert.”
