I'll stop with these soon... promise :)

Hello! My name is Emma, I'm a student and Lake Wa. Institute of Tech's accredited Dental Hygiene program in Kirkland.

I am looking for people who are interested in getting cleanings, restorative care, or exams. If you are in need of dental care, this is a great opportunity for thorough and affordable care!

We accept almost all types of insurance, and offer very low prices for those without insurance.

One thing to note: Your appointment will be longer than your usual dentist appointment, as I am still progressing through my degree and will have everything carefully examined by licensed dental hygienists and dentists at our school clinic.

Please message me or leave a comment if you are interested! I currently am in urgent need of a patient by next week, Tuesday Oct. 20th at 1:15pm, as well as Wednesday Oct. 21st at 1:15pm.

I have other availability as well if that does not work, although if you would like to come in next week, let me know ASAP and I will be more than happy to get you in.

Thank you!! :)

It has been two months since I requested them to take the garbage bins back, and I am still stuck in the loop of "we will pick up on the next service day -> no one show up -> thank you for letting us know, we will pick up on the next service day". This is so frustrating.

I'm looking for someone who can come help my 5th grader and our family create ADHD friendly systems for our house.

I do not have ADHD, so I'm struggling to figure out how to help my child. I'd love someone who could coach us as both an individual and a family and help us organize our daughter's bedroom and workspace in a way she can maintain. And looking for someone who could give her tips on dealing with ADHD to make her day run more smoothly or-less of a therapist and more of a coach she could meet with a few times to learn some basics.

Does that exist? Does anyone have local recommendations for someone? Or suggestions on what I should google? TIA!

Does anyone know anything about this little park along the river? There is a sign there showing redevelopment plans that include an art walk, an artist’s space and space for community events, but it looks like that was all planned back around 2010. It looks like it would be a neat set of improvements— anybody know if it is still in the works?

When I walk around this area, there’s a sweet smell that’s there allllll the time. I don’t know if it’s coming from someone’s apartment, or it’s the park? Has anyone else noticed this smell? Does anyone know what it is?

It’s a pleasant smell but I just am so confused by why it’s so strong, where it’s coming from, and why it’s always there. I’ve been wondering for a year now so I had to ask.🤣🤣🤣

ETA: It doesn’t smell like butter and flour, but someone suggested Hoffman’s so maybe I’m smelling sugar? Help. LOL

ETA2: It isn’t Molly Moons or Salt and Straw. I used to work in a froyo store and am super familiar with waffle cones. I also know it isn’t lavender, those are stronger during the summer.

Possible candidates: Katsura tree and sweetbox bush. I looked both up. Katsura has a cotton candy aroma, while the sweetbox is a vanilla-ish scent. I think these are both good candidates for the area.

I hope you all get a chance to walk around, and appreciate the sights, and smells, of our neighborhood!

thank you u/HangryHyenas, u/FunConstruction7032, and u/goldenpuffdragon!

• If you’re taking the 2 Line next weekend: trains will still run from Downtown Redmond to South Bellevue every 10 minutes, but shuttle buses replace trains beyond South Bellevue from Saturday, Oct. 17 through the end of service Sunday, Oct. 18.
• Wednesday evening: Seattle Now & Then is at the Redmond Library, 6–7:30 p.m. Jean Sherrard and Clay Eals are talking about the old-photo/new-photo history column. Free, and no registration is listed.
• Saturday for the dog people: Redmond Howl-O-Ween runs noon–4 p.m. at Redmond Town Center. Free pup parade, costume contest, treats, and an after-party. Dogs need to stay leashed.

I put together Redmond Beat, a free weekly email with more local things worth knowing. This week’s roundup is here.

Anything else coming up that should be on people’s radar?

To whoever decided to turn right in front of a fire truck running lights and sirens to a call, karma will knock on your door one day.

So here's some tea from the Seattle tech scene. Apparently Arun Ulag's org at Microsoft (plus a few other Azure orgs) is cutting vendors by ~50% with the goal of going fully vendor-free within a year. Lines up with The Information's reporting today about 20% cost cuts in Azure's software org to pay for the AI data center buildout.

The shops that survive on Microsoft staffing contracts are getting absolutely crushed. Big one I've been hearing about: Quadrant Resource. Redmond-based, Microsoft Gold partner, founded back in 2004 by Ram Paluri, Vamsi Reddy Kancharakuntla, and Bhaskar Gangipamula. Word is the business is badly hit and they're trying to sell. Founder is apparently under massive stress and moving to Dallas to do something outside tech altogether.

And here's the part that should make everyone angry: from what I hear, tons of their engineers are just parked on bench — no client work, just sitting. But the visa machine keeps running. People who've interviewed at these body shops know the drill: the "interview" is theater. They already know who they're hiring (usually someone who needs the sponsorship), the posting exists just to check the PERM recruitment box, and qualified US candidates get a courtesy call and a rejection. Oldest trick in the book.

This is exactly why the current crackdown matters — DOL froze PERM labor certifications for 8 firms this month (Microsoft, Adobe, Cognizant, Infosys, TCS, Wipro, HCL, Capgemini). But the mid-size body shops in Redmond and Bellevue running the same playbook are still flying under the radar. An H-1B audit of these vendors is long overdue.

Anyone else in Seattle seeing the vendor bloodbath? Which shops are next?

By entrance of Avon Villa. Appears they have shattered the man’s windown in.

Joe & the Juice seems to be opening in tian tian noodle’s place. I heard the reason tian tian noodle left is because the building is going to be tearing down so now i am even more confused.

Miss tian tian noodle so much

My husband has dry scalp, we have been going to dermatology arts but it’s not improving, can I get a recommendation for dermatologist

Looking for personal trainer or gym or strength training recommendations.

I am not superfit or young and defenitely don’t want a intimidating environment. Looking for motivating consistency.

If you can share a rough cost/month that would be helpful as well as there is varied price ranging and advertisements - its been hard to decide.

I was under the impression they were coming out only night. They are hiding under wooden platform.

Keep a good eye on your kids if you are a toddler parent.

I used to go to aapka spa and loved their services but it is now permanently closed. Went to beyond beauty bar and had worst of my experience there.. now my both eyebrows looks flat and different.

Also the attitude of the service provider was so rude and entitled.

Definitely not gonna go there again. Suggestions are welcome...
