Project Overview Residents have requested traffic calming improvements along 8th Ave NW and we are responding with some upgrades coming soon and more next year. Coming Soon: Intersection Daylighting! In the coming months, weβll daylight three intersections along 8th Ave NW. βDaylightingβ is when we use signs, paint, and other materials to make it clear to drivers that it is not okay to park too close to intersections. This helps everyone see each other better, which reduces crashes. Daylighting does not remove existing parking spaces. It prevents parking in areas where it is already illegal to park by State and City law. Construction of paint and post curb bulbs will begin at the following intersections along 8th Ave NW: β’ NW 70th St β’ NW 53rd St β’ NW 51st St Next year: New crossings and traffic calming In 2026, weβll make additional improvements including proven traffic calming measures along 8th Ave NW between Leary Way and NW 70th St.
Improvements are coming to 8th Ave NW in Ballard. We will start by βdaylightingβ intersections to increase visibility. Next year, weβll do more to make it safer to bike, walk, drive, and roll along the street: https://sdotblog.seattle.gov/2025/10/20/upgrades-to-8th-ave-nw-in-ballard-safer-travel/

SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES No. 25-385 (25A378) CHARLES RAY CRAWFORD v. MISSISSIPPI ON APPLICATION FOR STAY AND ON PETITION FOR A WRIT OF CERTIORARI TO THE SUPREME COURT OF MISSISSIPPI [October 15, 2025] The application for stay of execution of sentence of death presented to JUSTICE ALITO and by him referred to the Court is denied. The petition for a writ of certiorari is de-nied. JUSTICE SOTOMAYOR, with whom JUSTICE KAGAN and JUSTICE JACKSON join, dissenting from the denial of application for stay and denial of certiorari. Charles Ray Crawford will be executed tonight for a crime that his own lawyers told the jury he committed, despite his express instructions not to do so. Had this case come to this Court on direct appeal, Crawford could have proved that his Sixth Amendment rights were violated under our decision in McCoy v. Louisiana, 584 U.S. 414 (2018), in which we held that lawyers may not override a defendant's explicit and unequivocal decision not to concede guilt at trial. He would also likely be entitled to a new trial, as a McCoy violation is a structural error that mandates reversal.
Charles Ray Crawford has identified an important constitutional issue that this Court has not addressed and has divided courts around the country. The Court refuses to Cite as: 607 U.S. (2025) 13 SOTOMAYOR, J., dissenting resolve that question, even though a man's life is in the bal-ance. For these reasons, the Court should have granted Crawford's motion for a stay of execution and petition for writ of certiorari. I respectfully dissent.
The Supreme Court's Republican appointees let Mississippi kill Charles Ray Crawford tonight, despite treatment at trial that was of the same type that SCOTUS later held in another case is unconstitutional.
All three Democratic appointees, in a lengthy dissent, would have kept him alive.

Will we see a Brewers-Mariners World Series? The reason the Mariners exist is because of the Brewers β who began life in Seattle as the Pilots and were sold to a Milwaukee ownership group just weeks before the 1970 season began: sabr.org/journal/arti...

I just like to post these data from time to time to puncture the mythological aura of mid 20th c protests. They were less popular than pretty much any 21st c mass action & people criticizing them used the same lines. Protest is about people coming together, shaping narratives, & building power.
