Proponents of Initiative 1098, the high earners income tax proposal, also indicated they'd be ready to go by July 1.

Today, Heidi Dietrich posted some good news on the Seattle Post Glob blog: SeattlePI.com has hired Amy Rolph, a business reporter for The Daily Herald in Everett, to replace Monica Guzman (who ran SeattlePI.com's Big Blog and is leaving for a mysterious news startup called Intersect).

Replacing Guzman, according to Dietrich, shows Hearst's continued commitment to what's left of The Seattle Post-Intelligencer.
