== ‘The most interesting man’ in the Seattle mayora ==

<html>Charlie Staadecker, struggling in the polls,[http://nekotamari.main.jp/2011/11/post-486.html#comments Rise in illegal crossing roils immigration debate_], has settled on a strategy for winning votes for Seattle mayor: portraying himself as the race s version of Dos Equis most interesting man in the world. 
Staadecker,[http://www.zgfczx.com/bbs/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=63968 Choosing a new judge_0], a realtor and arts patron, has made five web videos parodying the popular Mexican beer commercials.

 I don t always run for mayor of Seattle,[http://zhyaoyu.com/bbs/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=44444 Smoak blunt about his clutch shortcomings this season_1], he says in the video. But when I do,[http://yui-spirits.kboyu.net/sideb_eva-diary/2010/06/post.html#comments Former Huskies star in summer league_0], I will fix the problems we face every day. 
Then a narrator s voice comes on: He is the most qualified candidate in the race. 
Staadecker closes by saying So stay informed and vote, my friends. 
The other, similarly themed ads are centered on?public safety, education,[http://yydig.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=153476 State Fish and Wildlife saltwater fish checks], jobs and infrastructure, according to the campaign.
Asked about the ads,?Staadecker said they re meant to show that along the way we can have a little bit of fun with some serious issues. 
 Life is too short not to have fun, he said.
Hamilton McCulloh, a campaign spokesman, said they have not yet decided whether to also run the ads on television or radio.</html>

== Poll- Should Washington lawmakers fine themselves for workin ==

<html>Senate Majority Coalition Caucus Leader Rodney Tom wants to motivate lawmakers to get their work done on time or face fines. Sounds like a gimmick. A bad one that doesn t reflect much pride in the final budget passed by lawmakers earlier this month.

The Washington Legislature certainly tested our patience when they failed to reach a budget deal by the end of the regular session. That they teetered on the edge of a government shutdown is unfortunate. But there s a bottom line: The final bill lawmakers passed turned out to be better than the alternatives considered in earlier weeks. (Why? Read more analysis in this  commending lawmakers for finding the political center in the final bill.)
Here s an excerpt from Seattle Times reporter Andrew Garber s :
Tom created a buzz after broaching the idea of a $250-a-day fine for each day lawmakers go past the time allotted in the regular session.
��We need a forcing mechanism, and right now,[http://dvdagent73.sakura.ne.jp/blog/archives/2008/12/star_wars_the_clone_wars_110_lair_of_grievous/#comments Benjamin Moore Paint turns competition local_0], there really is not one,�� Tom said Tuesday. ��I think it��s crazy that it comes down to notices to state workers that we��re going to shut down state government as the only forcing mechanism that gets us out of town.��
House Appropriations Chairman Ross Hunter,[http://noriom.com/archives/201109/160150.php#comments Jim Hightower's Common Sense_7], D-Medina, disagreed with Tom��s idea. ��I just don��t think it works,[http://www.zykxyz.com/bbs/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=8983 Washington Ensemble Theatre unveils 10th season],�� Hunter said.
Is Tom trying to apologize in some way for taking too long to adjourn sine die? They definitely took way too long to compromise, but I don t buy the idea that lawmakers will ever penalize themselves for taking a few extra weeks to understand a complex state budget that affects millions of Washingtonians over two years. One person I talked to said the outcome of this year s legislative session reminded him of a basketball game that goes into double overtime. A win is a win,[http://www.yyfreebar.com/read.php?tid=787657&ds=1 Michigan's snappy innovation_0], no matter what it took to get there. All sides fought hard. The final operating budget was worth the wait. Democrats didn t get all the revenue they wanted and social issues (such as the Reproductive Parity and DREAM acts) will have to wait another year for passage. Republicans and members of the Majority Coalition Caucus didn t get workers compensation reform or principal empowerment reform.
None of those issues took precedent over education funding,[http://vituno.com/index.php?title=User:Johnmichael#Not_filling_each_waking_moment_-enriching.27_the_kids-_Relax.2C Not filling each waking moment -enriching' the kids- Relax,], which fared better this year compared with previous sessions. So if you ask me,[http://www.soundala.com/blog/phoenix-coyotes-reach-arena-deal-in-glendale_0/ Phoenix Coyotes reach arena deal in Glendale_0], Tom s idea of punishing lawmakers for moving too deliberately is unnecessary.

One hundred years ago, on March 19, 1913, Washington s Legislature created the commission that put together our state parks system, which now includes 117 developed parks and other properties totaling more than 110,000 acres, including 7,[http://oliwer.net/b/2008/09/septembers-screenshot.html#comments Richard Sherman softball game wrapup],000 campsites, 35 interpretive centers and 400 miles of cross-state trails.
State parks play a big part in my personal story, from my family s 1960s camping trips to Moran State Park on Orcas Island in Dad s old Army surplus tent to the annual picnics at Deception Pass when my folks retired on Whidbey Island. (The Heavenly Lime Jell-O salad complemented the view of roiling,[http://www.liceonuzzi.gov.it/wiki/index.php?title=Utente:Qyimgfuqvi#Happy_100th.2C_state_parks-_Tell_us_your_favorite_.28and_your_no Happy 100th, state parks- Tell us your favorite (and your no], jade-green waters.)
Memory-making in state parks is part of being a Washingtonian. To mark the milestone,[http://vbmojako.0fees.net/vb/showthread.php?p=7393#post7393 Seattle Men&#8217;s Chorus, Seattle Women&#8217;s Chorus look ahead to 2013], starting this Sunday and continuing into July The Seattle Times will spotlight five “Gems of Our Washington State Parks,[http://www.fushikangzg.com/bbs/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=414196 Xenia Christian Center celebrates freedom with event],” representing some of the best in our state’s natural history, cultural history and recreation.
You ll see our choices soon enough. But we also want to hear about yours. In honor of the centennial, give us your picks of Washington State Parks: the best and (hey, nobody s perfect) the worst.
