  • Hungry, under-caffeinated, or in need of a stiff drink? Fulfill those important needs and “make a difference in the world”. A long list of Seattle neighborhood restaurants will be donating 25% of tonight’s sales to aid relief efforts in Darfur. [dinefordarfur]
  • Since not moving into the White House, John and Teresa Heinz Kerry took meetings with people working passionately to solve pressing environmental problems. Then they wrote This Moment on Earth. Tonight you can see them for the low low price of $5. [townhall]
  • Although Starbucks is a distributor of A Long Way Gone, Ishmael Beah’s chronicle of as a child soldier in Sierra Leone, the author will be appearing within mere steps of an indie cafe. [elliottbay]
  • While Havana has a tendency to take on a little bridge and ferry character on weekends, a foray to last week’s Hotel/Motel in the third act of a friend’s birthday party was exceptionally fun. You might suspect that this was due to an amazing guest set by Ratatat, but it was more in spite of their scattered playlist than because of it. It’s a a testament to the talents of former Members Only team Jon C and Amy Dials, and DJ Curtis that so many people are willing to go out late on a weeknight. Notables galore. [myspace]

    Bridge and ferry? Do people really say that there now, or is that just you?

    I don’t know — B&F just doesn’t have quite the same ring to it as B&T.
