Tired With Ranking Wealth, Forbes Moves on to the Seven Deadly Sins
(For example to measure the sin of "wrath" the magazine used murder rates for cities.)

Will You Drink Costco's Private Label Beer?
Wait, before you answer, one detail: Costco's private label hef will be brewed by beloved local micro-operation Gordon Biersch.
UW Secondary: "Just a girl who cain't say no"
The Husky secondary allowed 323 passing yards to San Jose St. in Saturday's win. The Spartans completed 80% of their passes. Yes, 80%. You might not complete that high a percentage in practice. Why even have a defense?
Beware of San Jose State
Update! The CraigsList robber of San Jose State, former player Ellis T. Jones (they kicked him out of the program after his arrest) got some special recognition from exhilarating college football site Every Day Should Be Saturday, in their "Fulmer Cup" rankings--a "competiton" ranking college football programs by the number of illegal acts their players commit.
Huskies vs. San Jose State
San Jose St has fast receivers and backs, and a veteran offensive line. They should be able to score against the Huskies.
Former Husky About to Drive One Billion People Crazy
For years China has been sending us cheap, crappy products, and now the US of A is about to return the favor.
Husky O-Line Scares Us
Optimists that we are, we'd hyped ourselves into a pretty good mood about the upcoming Husky football season. (Anything to stop from thinking about the Mariners). We thought--hey--the Dawgs start out with four very winnable games (ignoring the Oklahoma game, which they should probably just forfeit now and save state taxpayers the airfare).
Elswhere In Ist
LAist has so much fun this week! They go to E3, where they overhear the timeless remark "Man, this is where nerdy girls get laid." Is that a promise? They also give us this week's best CDs and make us realize that LA is the best place to use Zillow.
Seattlest Interview: John Richards
Last week, Seattlest visited the KEXP studios, met some of our fave DJ's and spoke with one of the most influential voices in Seattle music.
Sounders vs. Sunderland Wednesday
It's the time of year when Europe's soccer teams come across the Atlantic to warm up for the coming season by knocking a few of our teams around. Hey, as long as they're in town, might as well hold it at the stadium and sell a few thousand tickets to starved fans and have the annual go at the impenetrable nut that is the American soccer audience.
A Horseback Ride Might Have Been Quicker
We've always had a soft spot for Alaska Airlines. They seem slightly exotic and yet local all at the same time.
Madness Begins
March Madness isn't just the NCAA men's tournament, though Seattlest knows they've trademarked the name. At the risk of a lawsuit, we apply it to the hundreds of loser-out basketball tournaments taking place all over the country, from the South Dakota state "A" championship to the public school championships in New York City. Local teams began tournament life last weekend with the Pac-10 Women's basketball tournament and the State 3A Boys and Girls Tournaments.
