Providence Hospice and Homecare of Snohomish County was slated to start construction on a 20 bed hospice facility at a 2-acre site in south Everett, but the downturn in the economy has forced them to cut it from their immediate plans. According to the MSNBC website, the project was panned to be completed by 2010. Dan Harris, a regional chief financial officer explained the situation:
The slumping stock market had been a concern all year, he said. In November, as the tailspin continued, the organization realized "we had to do some serious cutting on plans," he said.
The hospice house project was one of four major projects in Washington and Montana that were cut, he said. MORE...
This is really a shame because for one, it would be a big constructoin project, and we need all of those that we can get right now. Secondly, there aren't that many hospice facilities in the area, and we could use another one on the North end.
Luckily the cancelling of this project will allow the new $500 million hospital building being constructed at the Providence Regional Medical Center in Everett to continue as planned.

It just came across my desk that billthecougnut has proposed a Hot Rod Cuize-in on January 7th in Bothell. In his post at AllFordMustangs.com he says:
How about meeting at the Burgermaster in Bothell at about 8 pm on Sat the 7th of Mar 2009 when the weather gets better. (If the weather sucks, then have fun people) but I just want to see a bunch of cars out there on a saturday evening like there used to be.
In the past, it was an unwritten rule, that there would be cruiz-in's all around King and Snohomish County. Burgermaster in Bothell was one, and the Burger King in Stanwood or lynwood (not sure) was another. Used to be in Everett, that we got together at the Herfey's burger joint, until they closed it down in 1999. Now there are just NO places that people get together..... I don't know why because we all still share the passion for our cars..... but we just don't collect like we used to. No drag racin..... no silly stuff.... just car guys gettin together to talk shop, and get stroked for their cars, and stroke others for theirs. FULL POST
This sounds like a great idea (not that I have a hot rod to bring.) Events like this are not only one way to get togther and actually interact with other people in the community (and no, chatting online doesn't count in this case.)
I will be keeping an eye on this one and watching to see if it comes together!

Mukilteo and neighboring area residents are getting their chance to speak out either for or against the opening of Paine Field to commercial flights. Allegiant Air is hoping to add several flights from Paine Field to Vegas in the coming year.

The three state legislators for the 21st District are planning a town hall meeting regarding proposals for commercial passenger airline service at Paine Field.
The meeting is 6 to 8 p.m. Jan. 8 at the new Mukilteo City Hall, 11930 Cyrus Way.
Sen. Paull Shin, D-Mukilteo; Rep. Mary Helen Roberts, D-Edmonds; and Rep. Marko Liias, D-Mukilteo, will lead the discussion. City and county officials have been invited to the meeting.
Allegiant Air of Las Vegas and Horizon Air of Seattle have indicated an interest in operating passenger service out of the Snohomish County-run airport. A decision on the proposals is expected in the coming year.

Regardless of what side of the argument you are on, if you want a say in what happens in Southern Snohomish county, and want to influence the decision on whether or not to have commercial flights out of Paine Field, then you should really attend this meeting!

In my file for news about the area, popped up this item from the Bothell Reporter about the Bothell Sons of Norway who are collecting used stamps to benefit children in Norway. What they do is send the stamps to the TUBFRIM organization which resells the used stamps. Their website has this to say:
Postmaster Ditlef Frantzen in Nesbyen established TUBFRIM in 1928. The aim was to collect and sell used stamps and use the proceeds to aid the eradication of tuberculosis among Norwegian children. The first profit was made in 1929 and amounted to NOK 1.500,-. Profits varied in the following years from NOK 8.000,- in 1940 to NOK 25.000,- in 1947. TUBFRIM has made good progress since from then and profits in 1970 were NOK 150.000,- growing to NOK 620.000,- in 2007.
TUBFRIM is owned by the Norwegian Health Association (Nasjonalforeningen for folkehelsen). Today the profits are used to help handicapped children and youth in Norway, and to finance the efforts to eradicate tuberculosis.
This seems like a really great and easy way to help kids in Norway, and the world over. You might not know it, but Tuberculosis is still affects us here in the USA because people that are arriving here from other countries are unknowingly bringing it with them. TB is getting harder and harder to treat because it is adapting and becoming more and more antibiotic resistant.
Take a minute and set yourself up a folder for sticking all your used stamps in, and when you get a bunch take them over to the lodge at 23905 Bothell-Everett Highway, or send stamps to: Bothell Sons of Norway, PO Box 492, Bothell, WA 98041.
