EVERETT — A drawn-out legal tussle on the city’s dress code for bikini baristas is ending after the Everett City Council on Wednesday agreed to pay $500,000 to the stand owner and employees who filed suit six years ago.
The council voted unanimously to authorize Mayor Cassie Franklin to sign the settlement agreement with Jovanna Edge and several employees. Plaintiffs had been seeking roughly $3.3 million in damages and attorney fees.
An ‘alcoholic’ Labrador became the first dog being treated for alcohol addiction after vets scrambled to save him and another dog hooked on booze that was left out by their dead owner.
A male puppy named Coco came to the Woodside Animal Welfare Trust suffering from canine alcohol withdrawal, which the animal shelter said was ‘a first’ for them.
The animal rescue in Plymouth, Devon, added that Coco, a two-year-old Labrador cross, has been with them for over a month, having required intensive care since arriving as part of his ‘tragic’ journey.
Poor pup, though I’m not surprised it’s a Lab.
That question should answer itself. But, in the current environment, that answer has become more and more obscure. The proliferation of top-down, politically motivated directives from the Biden administration detracts from military preparedness and saps the ardor and unity from members of our military. The effects can be seen in the current shortfalls in recruiting and the sharp drop in public confidence in the military.

A new woke TV show based on ‘Grease’ will reportedly feature a new song about White supremacy, with lyrics about the exclusion of those “Jewish, Asian, brown or Black, single woman or gay, on the wrong side of they.”
‘Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies’ is a new TV show that serves as a prequel to the original hit film that debuted in the 1970s. The show is set to take place four years before the original but with various messages about identity politics. Its stated purpose is to explore “sexual orientation, gender expression and racial identity.”
Secret documents that appear to detail American national security secrets on Ukraine, the Middle East and China have surfaced online.
WASHINGTON — A new batch of classified documents that appear to detail American national security secrets from Ukraine to the Middle East to China surfaced on social media sites on Friday, alarming the Pentagon and adding turmoil to a situation that seemed to have caught the Biden administration off guard.
The scale of the leak — analysts say more than 100 documents may have been obtained — along with the sensitivity of the documents themselves, could be hugely damaging, U.S. officials said. A senior intelligence official called the leak “a nightmare for the Five Eyes,” in a reference to the United States, Britain, Australia, New Zealand and Canada, the so-called Five Eyes nations that broadly share intelligence.
Chicago’s incoming liberal mayor has already raised eyebrows by blaming the city’s poverty problems and surging crime rates on businesses that don’t pay tax.
Brandon Johnson, a former union organizer who was elected on Tuesday, said the city doesn’t have money to solve its problem because ’70 percent of large corporations in the state of Illinois don’t pay a corporate tax’.
‘It’s that type of restraint on our budget that has caused the type if disinvestment that has led to poverty, of course that has led to violence,’ said Johnson, who didn’t give the source for his claim.
Ontario’s NDP has proposed a bill that would allow the province to ban anti-LGBTQ protests from taking place within the vicinity of certain queer events. While violent protests and bigotry are unacceptable, the bill is poorly thought-out and unacceptably infringes upon Canadians’ civil liberties.

The mood inside a downtown Toronto courtroom turned grimly quiet Wednesday after prosecutors played video footage of a five-year-old girl lying on her side and bleeding from her head moments after she had been shot while attending a baby’s birthday party.
She was one of four people injured when gunfire erupted at the celebration two summers ago in Rexdale, sparking citywide outrage, condemnation and calls for justice.
