| Judge rules claims are false |
“The makers of 5-hour ENERGY® misled consumers in pursuit of profit,” Ferguson said. “They broke the law, and they will be held accountable for their deception.”
Judge Andrus wrote: “None of the studies Living Essentials submitted to the Court support the claim that combining specific B vitamins, taurine, choline, glucuronolactone and tyrosine with caffeine will cause the energy, alertness and focus effects of caffeine to last longer than if the caffeine were consumed alone.”
WSDOT has an opening for a TMC Engineer at the Shoreline office
As a TMC Engineer 2 you will guide operations and make decisions on a daily basis that impact driver safety and traffic flow.

It is important that candidates have excellent technical writing skills.
Whole announcement and application HERE.
“The themes of identity, revenge, loss, and redemption are explored throughout this musical,” states SMT’s Managing Artistic Director, Chris Mayse.
“Along with giving our patrons the classic tale of Todd and Lovett, I also wanted to take a fresh view of the story through the optics of Tobias, the young lad who fate seems to draw into this tale of horror.
"There isn’t a lot said about his beginnings, or why he is a part of the story to begin with; although, his presence is definitely felt by the time we reach the climactic ending. I’m giving a focus to this and using a modern-day London as a launching point to begin Toby’s nightmare into the world of Todd.”
“We’re really focusing on the idea of violence; how it plays a part in the world of Todd, as well as how we as a society (then and now), view it and the effects it has on us.
"When I did the show myself, I was fascinated at how people were laughing and being entertained at the antics of a glorified serial killer! We are so quick to judge violence, yet we view the exploitation or it and get enjoyment from it!”
