Seattle has experienced its own terrorism scares since 9/11, after photographs of the Space Needle were recovered in 2002 from suspected Qaeda safe houses in Afghanistan.
Union members waiting earlier today in long voting lines near the foot of the Space Needle were split on whether the offer was adequate.

Ebbing and flowing in waves, the music ended with an obsessively repeated figure as if a phonograph needle were stuck in a groove.
The flatiron and the iron (later steel) needle were for a long time the only major advances in making clothing and footwear since ancient times.
