- My Ballard lets all you Ballard-drivers know that a traffic camera has been installed at the busy corner of 15th and Market.
- The Rainier Valley Post reports that Ana Ortega, the principal at Ali Kurose Middle School has resigned in the midst of an SPD investigation into sexual abuse by a teacher's aide at the school.
- Phinneywood is mourning the loss of another Woodland Park Zoo animal. Last week it was a monkey from congestive heart failure; today, a gazelle that died after being attacked by another animal in the African Savannah exhibit. (The lions are pleading the 5th.)
- There was a fire in West Seattle last night. Ever-vigilant and always updating, the West Seattle Blog has nearly minute by minute reports on the events and lots of photos and video from the scene.
