Metro Transit
 Metro's
Finest –
It's a very appropriated description for the two deputies and one former
Metro deputy that were recently honored by King County Sheriff Sue Rahr.
Current deputy Patrick McCurdy received Metro Deputy of the year, and Tim
Shook got the lifesaver award for rescuing a hiker who had been stranded in
the woods for days. Sergeant Jim Laing received the highest honor the
sheriff's office gives out, the Medal of Valor, for interrupting an armed
robbery in progress.

 The
green light for some greener lights –
They aren't literally but figuratively green light bulbs that were recently
installed at King County's Road Maintenance Headquarters in Renton. After a
county employee applied for and received a $76,000 grant from Puget Sound
Energy, the county's maintenance headquarters in Renton will cut its power
use by more than half in 2008.

King County International Airport
 KCIA
Cargo: A mysterious medley –
King County International Airport is one of the busiest commercial airports
in the county. As a result, it's a strong contributor to the economy in our
region. Much of that economic contribution is through the cargo that's
hauled by tenants at KCIA. Ameriflight is one of those companies. It used to
haul lots of physical bank checks. Now, with banks primarily operating in
cyber space, Ameriflight hauls things as interesting as medical specimens
for patients waiting on the operating table, to wolves, to Super Bowl
commercials shot in Seattle.

20 other cities and commit to buying and driving cleaner vehicles.
