Ichiro went to Hokkaido's Asahikawa Higashi High School to give its baseball team some pointers. One of his demonstration hits went over a protective net and into a classroom window, 130 meters (426 feet) away.
@Mariners Cal Raleigh was right. Whoever made him apologize should be ashamed. He spoke the truth. M’s management not liking it doesn’t make it less true.
By her own statement, consent was NOT given by @jennihermoso. So NOT consensual. That Rubiales is still mystified by the uproar is a CLEAR sign that leadership and culture must change at the federation to be worthy of its women’s team. Do the right thing.
The @tickemaster racket continues. $25 face value tickets for Hot Java Cool Jazz (advertised as 100% of ticket sales going to music programs of participating high school bands) is actually $66 per ticket through “verified resale” with a $12.50 per ticket service charge added!
After I was convicted of murder and sentenced to 26 years in prison, when the earth dropped out from beneath me, and global shame rained down on top of me, I had my first ever epiphany.

@ambermac Our youngest (now 26) bought himself a cassette recorder in Japan & found a store in Tokyo selling pre-recorded cassettes. We got to teach him the pencil trick to re-spool a cassette tape.
@johnpavlovitz Seattle Seahawks on Patriots 1-yard line elect to pass, rather than put ball in RB hands, only be intercepted & lose Super Bowl 28-24 in 2015. We’re still collectively traumatized by that.
@everywhereist Read The Onion’s amicus brief in the Supreme Court filed on behalf of an Ohio who made a Facebook page to make fun of a police department and then got arrested for doing so.
@seattletimes gets scooped again by NYT! @brierdudley why so much reliance on NYT & WaPo to cover stories here? See, e.g. 6/27/2022 "Seattle Fusion Startup" (NYT 6/22/2022); "Zoom bombers hijacked Enumclaw School Board Meeting," WaPo 12/2/2021.
Despite decades of research, AI hasn't fulfilled all the dreams researchers have hoped for. That hasn't stopped some from proclaiming the machines are sentient. https://t.co/LIV3LzgmbO
Quite pathetic watching Tour De France with #USANetwork promos for “Chrisley Knows” after “A jury found the couple guilty of conspiring to defraud community banks out of more than $30 million in loans, conspiring to defraud the IRS and tax evasion.”
The WSJ editorial page chief should resign. That person is not only responsible for an unforced error, but for bringing the full weight of a national publication against a 10-year-old victim of both rape and governmental denial of her health care. This is debased journalism.
So apparently today was my 34th Anniversary at my law firm, Lane Powell PC. Who knew it would be such a long, great ride! Still loving the people & the work!
