    Why did Inslee and health officials ease guidance for reopening Washington schools?

    How much learning have Washington students missed? The state doesn’t know

    How a diverse school district is using a strategy usually reserved for ‘gifted’ students to boost everyone

    Brian Finch with Nichol Brothers checks the I-beam placement under the stone cottage in West Seattle being prepped for a move to save it from demolition.  Additional funds and permits to move it still need to be obtained.  The cottage is small and for this company is considered a relatively easy move and among the smallest building they will have relocated.  It will go to a storage site until a permanent site is found.

The late Eva Falk’s stone 90-year-old stone cottage near Alki Beach in West Seattle is being prepped for a move to save it from demolition.

An additional $50,000 is needed and it will be relocated to a storage site by Nichol Brothers until a permanent location is found.

About two dozen I-beams have been placed under the structure build from about 15,000 beach stones.

The walls have been reinforced for a move and underpinnings placed.

Saturday there is a walk from the Alki lighthouse to the cottage beginning at 10 A.M. called “Walking in Eva’s Shoes.”

    FILE – In this Feb. 6, 2020, file photo, Major League Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred answers questions at a news conference during MLB baseball owners meetings in Orlando, Fla. Major League Baseball will cuts its amateur draft from 40 rounds to five this year, a move that figures to save teams about $30 million. Clubs gained the ability to reduce the draft as part of their March 26 agreement with the players’ association and MLB plans to finalize a decision next week to go with the minimum, a person familiar with the decision told The Associated Press. The person spoke Friday, May 8, 2020, on condition of anonymity because no decision was announced. (AP Photo/John Raoux, File)
