Gaining Public Trust: A Profile of Civic EngagementWhen Norm Rice was elected mayor of Seattle, it was the most divisive, polarized time in the city's history. African Americans were only 10% of the city's population and Norm's election was ground breaking. It was 1989 and the city was torn apart over the issue of busing to achieve school desegregation. On the same ballot with Norm was an anti busing initiative. The anti busing measure passed, Norm was elected and he became the mayor of a city tearing

When Norm Rice was elected mayor of Seattle, it was the most divisive, polarized time in the city's history. African Americans were only 10% of the city's population and Norm's election was ground-breaking. It was 1989 and the city was torn apart over the issue of busing to achieve school desegregation. On the same ballot with Norm was an anti- busing initiative. The anti-busing measure passed, Norm was elected and he became the mayor of a city tearing itself apart.

With candor and wisdom, Norm Rice chronicles his journey to leadership and public service, and the lessons he learned about civic engagement through his remarkable success in bringing a divided city together.

Norm's biggest strength is that he listens to people. -King County Democrat Central Committee

Norm Rice was one of the best mayors Seattle has ever had. Rare is the public leader who manages to be highly effective and well-regarded. Rice has been both. -Seattle Times - December 12, 2013

I'll Take Three!
I recently purchased the DUMOS Ergonomic Computer Gaming Chair, and I couldn't be happier with my decision! This chair combines comfort, style, and affordability in a way that truly exceeded my expectations. The PU leather lumbar support provides excellent comfort and proper posture, making long gaming or work sessions much more enjoyable. What really surprised me was the fantastic price—so good that I ended up buying three! I chose two in striking red and one in sleek blue for each person's room, and they all look fantastic. The build quality feels sturdy and durable, and the ergonomic design has already made a noticeable difference in my comfort levels. If you're looking for a stylish, comfortable, and budget-friendly gaming or office chair, I highly recommend the DUMOS Ergonomic Chair. It’s a great investment in your comfort and style!

excellent quality, Good Support
I got this on sale for $67. The process to assemble it was very straightforward and used an Allen wrench. It was rated as the best item in its category and had five stars. I wouldn't consider it a gaming chair, Although it tries to be one. It feels more like an office chair that was glam up to be a gaming chair. But it does an excellent job at supporting a tall large individual, Excellent Support, Good posture. Worth every penny, But not in the same category as a typical gaming chair. Lack some of the bells and whistles had a typical gaming chair would have, But every bit the money I paid for it. If you want something nicer then you need to buy like a $200+ Gaming chair with the bells and whistles.
