HERE

As of yesterday, there's a new chief in town. Mayor Condon swore in Frank Straub as the new chief of police on Monday. Straub wore a cop's uniform but kind of isn't really a cop, I guess?

A local woman takes a bullet in the face, but she says it's like totally fine. We'd like to refer her to this story.

A Spokane developer is being accused of fraud — but local county commissioners are kind of like "meh, whatevs" about the whole thing.

Remember when a little thing called a resume mattered?

THERE
Jerry Sandusky is sentenced to 30 years in prison, and probably an eternity in hell.

People do not like their TV premieres f***ed with.

David Blaine, the illusionist and idol of Inlander culture editor Mike Bookey, shocks himself with lightning this weekend. We don't know why either.

Last week's presidential debate might have been a snoozer, but it produced this gem.

BLACK METAL AND CATS

Glad Sesame Street demanded the add be pulled. While it may be humorous, to make Sesame Street somehow political is wrong and a distraction. Sesame Street isn´t going anywhere, even if the federal government stopped funding it. A couple commercials on the channel wouldn´t be the end of the world, it´s what every other channel does. They can still do fundraisers, still could even get deductions for tax purposes. Sesame street is making how much profit every year? Go into any store and you will see it. Do we spend money that we don´t have when it can survive without governments help? Would you take out a second mortgage so your kid could get a big bird plush toy?
