Jason Christian's work pushes the boundaries of his craft, combining the delicate complexity of reticello with intricate detailing inspired by Fabergé eggs. Through series such as his Bumbershoots and Yo-Yos that reflect classic Venetian technique to more sculptural works including Dragons and Volpe, Christian's art is deeply influenced by his family, personal experiences, and the nostalgia of growing up in the Pacific Northwest. A renowned glass artist based in the Seattle area, Christian was born in 1976 on Whidbey Island, Washington, to a metal fabricator and a cardiac nurse. His artistic journey began at the age of 21 when he was introduced to glassblowing as a factory charger, where he gradually developed his skills and knowledge through hands-on experience. His formal education in glassblowing includes workshops and classes with notable artists such as Pino Signoretto, Jeff Mack, Janusz Pozniak and Preston Singletary. Throughout his career, Christian has worked with numerous well-known artists in the Seattle glass community, including Martin Blank, Preston Singletary, James Mongrain and Nancy Callan. Since 2008, Christian has been an integral member of Dale Chihuly's Boathouse team, working with international artists like Pino Signoretto. He has also served as a glassblowing assistant to Lino Tagliapietra since 2014 and worked as a fabricator for Lindsey Adelman from 2014 to 2016. Says Christian: “I still don't know if I chose glassblowing or if it chose me. I just knew that the moment I walked into that studio and saw what was being created I had to be a part of it. Finding glassblowing felt magical, like I was made for it. It provided something I lacked in my younger years – the urge to create, grow, and express myself through my work. To witness a person handle molten glass, manipulate it, and form it as if it were water was amazing to me. I knew that I had to be a part of it.” Christian has participated in numerous artist residencies, including: FOCI, Minneapolis, MI (2019); Corning Museum of Glass, Corning, NY (2019); Pilchuck Glass School, Stanwood, WA (multiple years); Museum of Glass, Tacoma, WA (2016 and 2008); University of Texas at Arlington (2015); and the University of Wisconsin-Steven's Point (2015). He was Auction Centerpiece Designer at Schack Art Center, Everett, WA, in 2016 and 2010. His work is featured in several notable collections including the Hauberg collection, the Elton John collection, the Ben Bridge collection and many more private collections in the United States and Canada. With a desire to share his expertise through teaching and demonstrations, Christian has conducted workshops at various institutions including Penland School of Craft (2019); Pittsburgh Glass Center (2019); Pratt Fine Arts Center (2018); Pilchuck Glass School (2017); Urban Glass (2016); and Seattle Glassblowing Studio (2010-2013); He has also been a demonstrating artist in Turkey (2015) and Finland (2009). Christian states: “Beyond my relationship with glass, the camaraderie within the industry enticed me to grow beyond myself, always looking for what was within and turning that into something I could only see in my mind. It created an environment of growth and exploration, pushing me to be a better artist.” Upcoming Christian workshops include Penland School of Craft, August 10 – 15; Hilltop @ Pilchuck, September 28; and Neusole Glassworks, Forest Park, Ohio, November 17.

As Black Hat USA 2025 approaches, the cybersecurity world is buzzing with innovation—and Dropzone AI is right at the center of it. With roots in Seattle and a mission to bring true intelligence into the security operations center (SOC), the Dropzone AI team is gearing up for a packed week in Las Vegas, from BSides to the AI Summit, and finally at Startup City (booth #6427).Founded by Edward Wu, former Head of AI/ML at ExtraHop Networks, Dropzone AI was built on a key realization: the last thing SOCs need is another flood of alerts. Instead, they need help processing and acting on them. That's where Dropzone comes in—offering an AI-powered security analyst that doesn't just detect threats, but investigates, correlates, and takes action.During a recent pre-event chat with ITSPmagazine's Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli, Edward explained the core philosophy behind the platform. Unlike hype-driven claims of “fully autonomous SOCs,” Dropzone takes a practical, tiered approach to automation. Their agentic AI system performs full investigations, determines the nature of alerts (true vs. false positives), and recommends or executes containment actions depending on risk tolerance and policy.The tech has found particular traction with lean security teams, or those expanding toward 24/7 coverage without adding headcount. Rather than replacing humans, the platform augments them—freeing analysts from the drudgery of low-priority alert triage and giving them space to focus on strategic work. As Edward put it, “Nobody wants to be a tier-one analyst forever.” Dropzone helps make sure they don't have to be.The platform integrates across existing security stacks and data sources, drawing from threat intel, logs, and endpoint signals to build a full picture of every alert. Security teams retain full control, with human-in-the-loop decision-making remaining the standard in most use cases. However, for low-risk assets and off-hours scenarios, some customers are already authorizing autonomous action.With conversations at Black Hat expected to revolve around the reality of AI in production—not just the vision—Dropzone is entering the perfect arena. From demonstrating real-world impact to sharing insights on agentic design and trust boundaries, their presence will resonate with everyone from analysts to CISOs.Whether you're building out your SOC, questioning your MDR provider, or simply overwhelmed with alert fatigue, this may be your signal. Dropzone AI isn't selling buzzwords. They're delivering results. Visit them at Startup City, booth #6427, and see for yourself what the future of alert triage and SOC efficiency looks like—one investigation at a time. Note: This story contains promotional content.

Fant came to Seattle in the Russell Wilson trade, and has been a consistent performer for the team since arriving. With the timing of this move and some ongoing contract disputes with players on other teams in the league, one has to wonder if General Manager John Schneider is freeing up money to make a move.

Get ready for Part 2 of my set from The Cuff on June 29th at Seattle Pride. This is the back half of my closing set on Sunday night with the most wonderful crowd a DJ could ask for. I pulled out my remix of "Brave" by Sara Bareilles, which I haven't played in 8 years. And I took a bit of a risk by ending the night with the full 1998 Extended Pride Remix by Junior Vasquez of Cyndi Lauper's "True Colors" - this remix has meant so much to me over the years, but I've never played it live. With Cyndi's farewell tour happening this summer, it felt like the right moment. The remix starts out high energy before slowing down tempo and dropping into the original song, before building back up again to its crazed crescendo... it gives folks that romantic moment at the end of the night to slow dance and reflect on what Pride might mean to them. It's a moment that always resonated powerfully with me when I heard this track on many NYC Pride weekends and I wanted to share this moment - a part of Junior's legacy (the set also features his "Rocketman" Arena anthem) - with a new generation. And then, of course, the set ends with the ending track of all ending tracks... as the last dance of the night. Next up... my full set from Purgatory at Gifford House in Provincetown on July 3rd!

In this episode of the Know Your Why Podcast, Dr. Jason Balara interviews Kin Sio, a first-generation immigrant, entrepreneur, and business owner who transitioned from a thriving tech career to real estate investing—and ultimately to business acquisitions. Kin opens up about his journey from Macau to the U.S., the pivotal experiences of caring for his ailing parents, and how those challenges sparked a desire for greater freedom and control over his time. After initial success in real estate, Kin realized that business ownership offered more leverage and scalability. He shares how he acquired a Hawaii-based marketing agency while living in Seattle, detailing the complexities of sourcing, financing, and remotely operating a business. From cultural adaptation to team leadership, Kin reflects on the highs and lows of entrepreneurship and the motivation that keeps him pushing forward: time freedom, personal growth, and family legacy.Key Highlights:- Kin's immigrant journey from Macau shaped his entrepreneurial drive and resilience.- Real estate investing was his first step toward financial independence, but business acquisition offered more scale and impact.- Caring for his parents inspired a deeper need for time freedom and autonomy.- The business acquisition process demands urgency, relationship-building, and a higher level of operational responsibility than real estate.- Operating a Hawaii-based business remotely from Seattle required strategic planning, cultural adaptation, and strong leadership.- SBA loans and seller financing played a key role in making the acquisition financially feasible.- Kin underscores that entrepreneurship is a personal journey, not for everyone, but deeply rewarding for those who embrace its challenges.This episode of the Know Your Why Podcast is a powerful reflection on the personal and professional transformation that can come from taking bold risks. Dr. Jason Balara and Kin Sio explore the realities behind the glamorous facade of entrepreneurship, offering listeners valuable insight into the worlds of business acquisition and remote management. Kin's story is a testament to the power of purpose-driven decision-making, and his journey is a motivating example for anyone seeking financial independence through business ownership.Get in touch with Kin:IG: https://www.instagram.com/kinmsio/FB: https://www.facebook.com/xavisioLI: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kinsio/If you want to know more about Dr. Jason Balara and the Know your Why Podcast:https://linktr.ee/jasonbalara Audio Track:Back To The Wood by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/Artist: http://audionautix.com/

Who isn't hoping for a quality partner to build a life with? Someone charming, reliable, with a great personality? But what happens when that sparkling personality is far darker around the edges than you realized? In her tensely thrilling new novel Don't Let Him In, author Lisa Jewell explores the layers of truth and deception unraveling before three women who find themselves tied together by a man who has more secrets than any of them bargained for. Nick Radcliffe seems to have it all – he's a man of substance and good taste, with a smile that could melt the coldest heart and a knack for putting others at ease. He's just what Nina Swann needed in her life after her husband's unexpected death. But Nina's adult daughter Ash has her suspicions. Nick seems too slick, too polished, too good to be true. Without telling her mother, Ash begins digging into Nick's past… and uncovers more than unsettling findings. Meanwhile, Martha is a florist living in a nearby town with her infant daughter and her devoted husband Alistair. It's a lovely little life, until Alistair starts traveling more frequently for work, disappearing for days at a time. Frustrated and looking for answers, Martha plants a tracking device in his car. But nothing could've prepared her for the ride that was to come. Nina, Ash, and Martha soon find themselves on a psychological collision course, hurtling toward a shocking truth far darker than anyone could have imagined. All three women are about to wish they had heeded the same warning: don't let him in. But it's certainly too late for that now – and the past won't stay buried forever. Lisa Jewell is a New York Times best-selling author of twenty-three novels, with work that has been translated into thirty languages. Her writing career has spanned more than twenty years, and she has spent over a decade focused on writing dark psychological thrillers, suspenseful mysteries, and crime fiction. Her previous books include None of This Is True, The Family Upstairs, and Then She Was Gone, as well as Invisible Girl and Watching You.

On this episode of the NHRA Insider powered by Speedmaster, host Brian Lohnes takes you though an incredible weekend in Seattle that not only challenged teams and drivers but also challenged the record books. Conditions that were ideal for traction and horsepower delivered the fastest speed in Top Fuel history, multiple track records, and more. There were scary moments as well in terms of Shawn Reed's crash and Buddy Hull's foray into the gravel trap at the end of the strip. Lohnes goes over all of it here, winners, big moments, and takeaways that can be carried to Sonoma. If you think it will be any slow there, Lohnes has other thoughts, and he tells you why. Tune in and get ready to fly!
Your thoughts on the kiss-cam episodeAndrew Ross Sorkin's note yesterday about Andy Byron, the C.E.O. of a tech start-up caught on camera with a colleague from H.R. at a Coldplay concert, struck a nerve with DealBook readers, who have flooded our inbox with responses: “The moment seems to encapsulate the pervasive schadenfreude within our culture, especially our office culture, and a deep-seated animosity toward bosses and colleagues,” Andrew wrote. “It highlights a zero-sum mentality in which a colleague's success is perceived as your loss, and their failure your gain.” He added that, “The incident also underscores our surveillance state.”Here's what readers had to say:“The surveillance state is a bit aggressive of a take on this. They were lovingly embracing at a concert during a love song while the kiss cam was on the prowl.” — Bob McMurtry“The public is not just reacting to someone else's misfortune, it is reacting to the utter hypocrisy revealed yet again by those in power who dictate rules that others should follow, yet arrogantly disregard following them themselves. Employees endure hours of H.R. training on the impropriety of workplace relationships, especially between manager and subordinate, yet the actual HEAD of H.R. engages in an affair with her married C.E.O. Do you not see the specific irony of this outing?” — Jim Woidat“I don't think we commoners' resentment of C.E.O.s is so much about jealousy as it is about pay inequality (their pay rate today vs. what it was a few decades ago) and stuff like golden parachutes.” — Tom EshbaughWhat nobody is talking about:Before the kisscam: 12 executives (11 men and Chief People Officer Kristin Cabot); 6 directors (all men)They've also disabled their LinkedIn links and yetAstronomer board launches investigation after viral Coldplay 'kiss cam' video appears to show CEO embracing HR chiefDealBook Hot Take: Board members should be licensedJonathan Foster, a consultant and former managing director at Lazard, has served on more than 50 corporate boards. Along the way, he says, he has encountered directors who have stayed too long, or ones whose “knowledge of financial statements and M&A is lacking.” He drew on that experience in “On Board: The Modern Playbook for Corporate Governance,” his new book.One of his big ideas for improving director performance: “a license,” he told DealBook, like the kind required “for investment bankers, doctors, lawyers, even massage therapists.”That, he said, “might increase confidence in corporate directors.”How it would work: Some of the requirements Foster envisions include 10 years of work experience, being at least 35 and passing an exam covering legal standards, basic accounting and finance principles, and ethics. “It doesn't have to be particularly onerous,” he said, comparing it to the Series 7 exam for financial advisers.To issue licenses, he says, the New York Stock Exchange could oversee an organization like Harvard Business School or the National Association of Corporate Directors. He says he sees the arrangement as akin to how the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board operates under the authority of the S.E.C. That independent nonprofit group, he noted, “has commissioners, and they go do their thing, but they're ultimately responsible to and can be pre-empted by the S.E.C.”Is it workable? DealBook asked Edward Rock, a professor of corporate governance at the New York University School of Law. He said he worried that standardized requirements for diverse companies could disqualify board members with otherwise strong attributes. For example, he wrote in an email to DealBook, “Why would anyone want to prevent Mark Zuckerberg (28 at the time of Facebook's I.P.O.) or Larry Page and Sergey Brin” — both in their thirties when Google listed — “from serving on the board of directors of Facebook and Google?”(Foster said exceptions could be created, including for founders.)Shareholders have an incentive to demand the most qualified board members, Rock continued, and they tend to do so.Coca-Cola will roll out cane sugar version of namesake soda in the U.S. this fallPrivate jet sales are poised for takeoff thanks to a revived tax breakA federal tax change now lets companies write off the full cost of buying a private jet in year oneStarbucks' formerly remote CEO has bought a home in Seattle and he's ordering all staff back to the office 4 days a week Jeff Bezos taps former Amazon Alexa head to lead $10 billion Earth fundElon Musk's other companies could soon pour billions into his AI startupSpaceX, the rocket company Musk founded and controls, is reportedly investing $2 billion into xAI, his AI startup best known for the chatbot GrokElon Musk promises Tesla shareholders a vote over buying equity in his Grok startup: ‘If it was up to me, Tesla would have invested in xAI long ago'Musk's xAI faces European scrutiny over Grok's 'horrific' antisemitic postsElon Musk's AI chatbot Grok is now working with the federal governmentElon Musk's Neuralink filed as 'disadvantaged business' before being valued at $9 billionOpenAI warns that its new ChatGPT Agent has the ability to aid dangerous bioweapon developmentA Staggering Proportion of Teens Say Talking to AI Is Better Than Real-Life FriendsElon Musk announces Baby Grok AI chatbot designed specifically for children's learning needsTelegram CEO Pavel Durov on French probe against Elon Musk's Twitter: “at this point, any tech company can be declared a ‘criminal gang' in France".

Katy Grabel joins Let's Talk Memoir for a conversation about a childhood immersed in professional magic, when a parent's dream because ours, wanting to be famous, searching hard for self, trying to understand the allure of our parents' choices, using journals to familiarize ourselves with our emotional life from the past, what drives someone to want to be a magician, seeing the whole person when writing about loved ones and accepting their good and their bad, going deep, not including everything just because it's a true story, waiting to publish a memoir until after loved ones are gone, drawing parents carefully and with love, and her new memoir The Magician's Daughter.

A former newspaper reporter, her stories about professional magic have been published in ZYZYYVA and New Millennium Writings. She shares her time between an old rambling adobe house in Taos with her guitar, fancy dreams and penchant for dancing in her kitchen, and a lovely book-filled casita in San Miguel de Allende in Mexico. She has always seen herself as a magician's assistant, taking notes, and believes daughters of magicians—even more than sons—must make their own way: Daughters must decide whether to be the willing assistant, command the spotlight, or turn away with a story untold. And all will be lost unless we recognize the resiliency and strength of our mothers as they lay down on the sawing table. Yet who can deny, late at night, when the dark is crowded by our failures, that every daughter of a magician must find her own magic.

The Seattle School Board is extending the search for a new superintendent, past the original deadline to hire someone by the fall. That means the district will not have a permanent leader when its roughly 50,000 students come back in the fall. We review why the school board wants more time for the search, and what that delay means for students, teachers and parents.

On November 1, 1955, United Airlines flight 629 from Denver, Colorado to Seattle, Washington took off from Denver's Stapleton Airfield at 6:52 pm, carrying thirty-nine passengers and five crew members. Roughly ten minutes later, the aircraft exploded in the air, killing all forty-four people onboard and scattering fiery debris across several miles of Colorado's landscape.By the early 1950s, air travel had become a popular means of travel for more and more Americans and, while air disasters weren't unheard of, they nonetheless called into question the safety of traveling on a passenger flight. This time, however, investigators quickly determined that the explosion of flight 629 hadn't been an accident; someone had intentionally sabotaged the flight with a suitcase bomb.The explosion of United Airlines flight 629 marked the first time a passenger plane had been bombed in the United States, something few if any authorities ever thought would happen. In the event of an act of terror, an individual or group typically comes forward quickly to claim credit; however, in the case of flight 629, no one came forward and investigators were left to wonder, what possible reason could someone have for killing forty-four people with no obvious connection between them?Thank you to the Incredible Dave White of Bring Me the Axe Podcast for research and Writing support!ReferencesAnastasio, Jeff. 2024.

RUNDOWN Here's a wild behind-the-scenes story involving the viral CEO from the Coldplay concert — did Mitch actually reached out? Mitch and Hotshot slide into Ottawa trivia, highlighting hometown music legends like Alanis Morissette and songwriter Paul Anka. Mitch and Hotshot Scott recap the Mariners' gut-punch loss on Sunday after taking the first two games from Houston, focusing on a costly JP Crawford error that flipped momentum in an 11-3 collapse. Despite the disappointment, the M's remain in playoff position heading into a daunting series with the red-hot Brewers and their 103-mph phenom Jacob Misiorowski. With the trade deadline approaching, Mitch speculates on bullpen help and a potential return for Eugenio Suarez. Mitch is joined by Brady Farkas and Joe Doyle [Mariners No-Table] to unpack a frustrating Sunday collapse that spoiled a potential sweep of the Astros, despite strong starts from the rotation and promising moments from Julio Rodríguez. The crew breaks down playoff odds, bullpen trade needs, and the logic behind a potential Gino Suarez rental deal. They preview a tough week ahead against the red-hot Brewers and tricky Angels, with bold predictions for Dom Canzone and the M's pitching staff. MLB Pipeline's Jim Callis returns to Mitch Unfiltered to discuss how Kade Anderson unexpectedly fell to the Mariners at No. 3—despite Callis saying it was highly unlikely just two weeks earlier. He explains why it wasn't a knock on Anderson, but a cost-saving move by the Nationals and Angels. Callis breaks down Anderson's strengths, how he compares to Paul Skenes, and when fans might expect to see him in the big leagues. He also weighs in on the Mariners' other top draft picks and gives the front office high marks for its overall haul. In this week's KJ-Aren'ts, Mitch and Jason Puckett relive the viral backlash from Mitch's tweet doubting Cal Raleigh's Home Run Derby chances with his dad pitching. Mitch explains the misunderstood context, while Puckett gleefully replays clips and receipts. The segment spirals into a hilarious debate on bad takes, freezing cold tweets, and All-Star innings, with both hosts taking their lumps. Full episode available to Mitch Unfiltered patrons. The “Other Stuff” segment dives into Scotty Scheffler's historic British Open win and streak of dominance, before veering into a whirlwind of quirky, controversial, and surprising headlines—from Jay Cutler's endangered species scandal to In-N-Out Burger's move to Tennessee.

The rivalry with the Los Angeles Rams never seems to fade (as much as we'd like it to). We being by taking a look back at the Rams season last year and how the Seahawks could have put them away early on in the season. Instead, that game was a turning point for Seattle. Not only was it a turning point in the season, it seems like it was the precursor to many offseason moves for our Seahawks. As we dissect our intense disdain for the Rams, from their latest offseason moves to the ongoing annoyance of Sean McVay, we offer our expectations for their 2025 season. Can Matt Stafford continue to keep his body in one piece for another year? Will the pass rush on defense continue to mask some of the deficiencies in the secondary? Can they please fine some way to slip back into mediocrity! In the second half of the show, we celebrate the entire Seahawks 2025 draft class being under contract. There's also some discussion about the "drama" in the quarterback room. In the Do Better segment, we take a look at a rumor that Will Levis could be a fit in Seattle. Plus, does JJ McCarthy possess a superpower that helped secure his starting quarterback spot over Sam Darnold? Better at Life honors go out to the Bootleg Football crew for some NFC West expectations and a Seahawks legend has set a new world record. Support the show Get in the Flock!
