Don't B Fooled - don't be.  You have no idea who I am or what my lifestyle is like; you're just trotting out the usual stereotypical line against someone you perceive as an ideological opponent.

Calling people hypocrites, threatening and belittling them - how's that workin' for ya?

I'm an Albertan, I'm for some pipelines (trans mountain anyway) but certainly have no time for industry tough guys.  You need to not just yell  at us, you need to assure people, with some level of sincerity, you're concerned with the environment and going to clean up your inevitable mess.

Re, jobs - most sensible people  know industry will hire as few people, for as little time and at as little wage as possible - jobs are not the big  issue.


...all one has to do is read the PF constitutional protection to understand that what Mr. McAllister has stated is true.  Reading and comprehension go hand in hand.


Actually China is not.


Not at all it is now a race to see which takes him out first.


The ball is in Trump's court now.   His first effort was clearly a failure.  Will his efforts fare better second time around?  Will there be a second time around?

Time will tell.


so what is the real big deal with all of this.  its just a bunch of nosey neighbors or jealous neighbors.  I can see if there is criminal activity going on like drug dealing, meth labs, abuse, prostitution etc etc, but i don't see why a homeowner can't rent out a room or part of their house to short term renters.  One day they gonna pass a law that you can only flush your toilet 2x a day and these nosey neighbors will be listening to the flushes. LOL
Mind your own business folks, unless they are doing criminal behavior.


The oil industry like any other business, from the smallest to the  largest,  is out to make the biggest bucks possible. They actively lobby the Legislature to attack the permanent fund dividend in order to evade possible taxes.  That was why we had the ballot proposition in 1999.. The price of oil crashed and the legislature was looking at taxing the oil industry.  Gov. Knowles to attacked the Permanent Fund.
83% of us VOTED statewide and in every single precinct told the politicians do not use earnings of the Permanent Fund to run the government.
-
NO is NO and if any politician does not understand the meaning of the word no -- they always without any question understand the meaning of the word f-i-r-e-d.
-
I am not sure the legislature can save Gov. Walker's bacon from purgatory Nov. 8. and public demands for his impeachment.


The burglar took the sales sheets?  Those must have had value to......nobody, except to the owner?  Just odd that they would want the daily sales report.  Just thinking out loud.


Democracy?   Like having US left wing groups (TIDES, Sierra Club and LEADNOW) interfere in our last Federal election?  That kind of democracy?  Where is all the outrage over that?  crickets.....because the cheating left did it.


RA:  Didn't take long for another buttercup to come to the rescue and no surprise it was you.  Why is it when you get all flustered and frustrated you revert to senseless ad homenium attacks?  Do you think that makes your comment more relevant or is it just childish chest beating.  Or does it satisfy your cyber bully ego?


I guess Trump's tiny hands are well suited for tweeting.


Perhaps it is time for all the oversight committees in parliament to lay dereliction of duty charges against every single one of the ministers that are not performing in the interest of the Republic of South Africa.  The rank smell coming out of SASSA and most especially from the Minister of this Portfolio is putrefying.  On this day, 18 July 2017 it is time to put the poor, the disadvantaged, the disable, the old, the infirm, the young, those whose lives are being cut short from this evil corruption.  It is in our hands; it has always been in our hands to make the change.


If the pipeline people did this kind of trashing of the environment they'd be in court, fined and held accountable. What I find ironic is that a pipeline is far safer moving oil than the trucks and trains now doing it.


Or the feces throwing.


Unwatchable

Run run pass, run run pass  I forgot how predictable McCoy is.


Blaming everyone and everything but themselves


Excellent analysis, Marjorie! But you and your family's personal needs are not part of the social engineers' equation. It's all about reducing your freedom, not enhancing it.


Trudeau and Morneau counselled by the brilliant strategist, Butts decided to initiate class warfare. It backfired. Bring in these tax changes and you're finished as a political force.


Voted not sure, yet have reservations in that he had ample time to make it legal.  By remaining illegal he cannot justify why he should not be deported.  Myself had to have 2 Congressman intercede  on our behalf to bring my sister-in-law into the US after the our Embassy official chose to deny her the visa after all requirement were complied with for her entry .


Is that the summation of what ya got?


"simple-minded gulls" ? You read to much of your own press.  I did not vote for the guy (as I have stated before), but your arrogance is EXACTLY the reason your candidates did not win. I have news for you Eric - maybe you are WRONG, has that EVER crossed your mind ?


Whatever happened to chloroquine?


I think you missed her subtle satire there pal, she's dissing the left with her Nazi-like manifesto.  Either that or shes a raving looney.


Are there any consanguinity issues with the parents?


Good point Andi, with CNN, MSNBC, WaPo and all the others, it's just a matter of time. Kind of surprised that have not dreamed it up yet.


"Science only applies to the material world." ???
So... the world of spirit and matter have nothing essentially in common?


Perhaps 'conservative' would be a better description of a business that won't advertise with Ezra.


If religion were eliminated we would eliminate a lot of power seekers; but their need for support in tithes or whatever has also resulted in their 'charitable' efforts.

At this point, we would also eliminate a lot of 'good' things done for people that won't otherwise happen.

The gold and gilt in the Vatican was just the percentage taken off the top by the scam artists called Popes.

Same with the Temple in Salt Lake City.

Or all those Catholic or Protestant cathederals across Europe.

Today's charities that aren't religion-based do the exact same thing.

They all still take a percentage off the top, whether its Goodwill, St Vincent, United Way or Red Cross.


IF the state of Colorado did take money or withhold money from PERA, then that money plus earnings should be replaced by the state. After that, the PERA board needs to be replaced entirely for their overly optimistic views of finances. Finally, PERA members need to step up an contribute more to make things right.


Let's see, progressives favor abortion, which is similar to some of the ways fascists treated people.  Progressives want to ban the Bible from schools, even though to some people it is just literature, which resembles brown shirts.  I won't back down from my thoughts on the progressive agenda.  And I would have never gone down the fascism road if someone had not posted "men who wore belts that said "Mitt Gott" systemically killed 6 million people..." first.  I think the Nazis were the worst thing that ever happened in world history.  I truly believe that any comparison to Nazism is wrong.  But I won't let a liberal make a false comparison to Nazism and conservatism without pointing out the truth.  Go back and tell the person who posted "men who wore belts that said "Mitt Gott" systemically killed 6 million people..." that their words were unconscionable before speaking to me about what I posted.


The alleged behavior is disgusting and nasty ... but it doesn't seem to have anything to do with him being a city employee, and his behavior doesn't reflect on other city employees.


Your comment has way too much common sense in it for this site.  Watch it get whacked.


This is really not that much of a surprise. Federal and Provincially, conservative parties have changed their name no less than 17 times since Confederation. It appears that is the only way they can stay in the game. By deception, until they get power when the really big deceptions begin again.


Nice article,
How about the following.
We could have spaces conveniently placed, developed by the state, where people can sell what they can create at home or access where ever.
These need not be expensive to generate as all that is required, in its most basic iteration, would be parking and basic structures from which to peddle ones wares.

So that I can make what ever I can at home and easily go and sell it.
or with my vehicle go to the big market and sell the produce at the local market.

The big retailers of our world may not like it, but I am sure they could adapt and anyway the system is supposed to be based on the idea, of open entry to the market.

Instead of having metro cops harassing people trying to sell goods, they should be facilitated.

This could in turn generate production hubs.

We need to start by coming up with practical measures that can be introduced tomorrow.


Ha ha.  Donald Trump's presidency is like the Hindenburg after it caught fire.


As for policy, apparently my local Liberal MP has told local doctors that the tax rules are already changed....before comsultations take place. Got to love the honest politicians in northeastern Nova Scotia.


The democratic majority in Iraq is Shi-ite Muslim. They're aligned with Iran. (That 100% predictable outcome was ignored by the Bush administration when it invaded in 2003.) So given that the USA and its Gulf allies are deeply hostile to Iran, how will they counter Iran's influence over the government of Iraq?

By tacitly supporting Sunni Muslim extremism in Iraq, the USA and its allies have a powerful counter to the influence Iran has with the Shi-ite Muslim majority. Hence, the fall of Islamic State will not bring the end of that extremism. It's just too useful a tool for the US to discard. Islamic State may not continue, but Sunni Muslim extremism in the region will.


Oooohhhh, my...the people that founded the greatest country in the world (please don't kneejerk the Native displacement) by them and no one else are not the only ones to have a say in it.?  Where do you get this stuff???  There is nothing nowhere that says any other people of any other county are to have as say in said sovereign country.  Do you live in a star trek make believe world?  probably!


Indeed, other than confusion, ambiguity, and heterodoxy, Vatican II "had nothing to offer".

Maybe if they spent the money we already approved they would not have this problem!!!  VOTE NO!!1!!


The 'bloat' is all the corporate welfare.

Cut that and we don't have a revenue problem.


To say that our country is being run by a bunch of children would be an insult to children!  Those members of Congress who accuse POTUS of being petty and un-Presidential should take a long hard look at themselves.  Voting for a bill only when they know it will not be signed is cowardly.  It's way past time for the American voter to drain the swamp of these elite, self-serving deplorables who call themselves "public servants".


Sounds like a busy "retirement"!  Be well, and thank you for continuing to minister into your retirement years.


lol


Yes RD, we are aware that you prefer darkness over light... secrecy over truth... superstition over reality.


EZ Choice is right! Feel The Bern and love life, peace, and prosperity.


The push to repeal Obamacare is merely a political act.  Trump promised it during his campaign to get the "Never Obama (or Democrat)" vote.  Now as POTUS, he just wants to take his predecessor's legacy.

How do we know that?  Because he had no better replacement plan.  As the GOP began the repeal process, they actually had to start thinking about what works and what doesn't.  In the end, whatever they put out should have most of the features of Obamacare, which is not perfect but much better than political opponents made it out to be.

Therefore, the more the GOP tries to change Obamacare, the worse it'll be (and the more Trump will have to "alternative fact" about it).


And Pali Highway?  When?


the picture of these three women hiding behind black garments and playing with a child disurbs me greatly. This poor child is growing up missing the sight of happy smiles......
These poor women have it all wrong...

I've booked my front seat at the Treason Trials for when these chickens finally come home to roost and all the lies and obfuscation are revealed for everybody to see on everything they've done, whether it be Eksdom, or SAA, or SABC and so on and son on.

The super-rich players chose to politicize their sport and disrespect the country that has enabled them to become super-rich.  It's their right.  But it's wrong.  And they know it's wrong.  That's why they are pushing back so hard.  I'm don't hate them for it.  But they've taken away my relief from politics by bringing it to the game.  So I don't care about them or the sport anymore.

You guys would complain if Obama didn't react within the first hour to something like this.  It took Trump days, so yeah the criticism is warranted.


we need these sorts of killing machines about as much as we need the bubonic plague.


Great news.  Thank you.  Also true that MLB players don't get in trouble with the law as often as NFL players.   Makes me proud to be a baseball fan.


And the cops thought it just fine not to warn the residents of Anchorage. Pathetic!


I have looked at other speeches delivered to the BSA Jamboree by other presidents (from both parties).  None of them were remotely close to Trump's manure show.


Better question is how many Mexican citizens would be standing up and demanding a driver's license, medical care, and education for your kids (in their native language of English no less)?


Yes who cares? When you are a champion like this Kid is, you can do anything you want and as often as you want. Good for the captain of the Pens!


Let's stipulate that all revenue generated by this tax will go into the above. How much of the funds currently budgeted for these areas will now be redirected into other areas? What percentage of the generated revenue goes to education? Healthcare? Services for senior citizens? What are the explicit definitions for these categories? In other words, what is the "wiggle room" that the legislature and governor will have to use the money for non-intended areas such as PERS? What is the net some/gain?

So let's be honest again and admit this is just a general tax increase. This is the same old process that has led us to where we are now at all levels of government; spend and tax, spend and tax, repeat. It addresses no systemic problems for Oregon. It is the equivalent of an obese person punching another hole in their belt to address their eating disorder.

The last thing Oregonians should do is turn-over $3,000,000,000.00 (3 billion dollars) to the status quo to do the same ol', same ol'.


A Trump promise may be as worth as a degree from Trump University, his election may have reduced America to an object of ridicule, his pronouncements may baffle friend and foe, but no one should accuse the Donald (or his handlers) of stupidity.

Whether it is a few Tomahawks on Syria to shore up lagging popularity numbers, tariffs on Canadian softwood lumber to satisfy protectionists or slashed corporate taxes to delight his elite supporters, the Donald does what needs to be done to hold on to power.

That it risks alienating trade partners, heralding WWIII, destroying the environment or impoverishing the masses are negligible details.


I guess you have never had a tooth pulled. The "experience" is exactly the same with an exposed nerve left to "die off" after the tooth removal. Oddly I never had it done during "medieval times."


Like Zimbabwe, it is becoming more dangerous to become a member of the ANC than the opposition.


It's a guaranteed loser for anyone silly enough to ignore history of the place. If you want to make a profit on it, stop the assinine prohibition of marijuana in this town and make it a Marijuana store.


Now, a presidential candidate could lose despite winning 78%+ of the popular vote and 39 states.

With the current state-by-state winner-take-all system of awarding electoral votes (not mentioned in the U.S. Constitution, but later enacted by 48 states), it could only take winning a bare plurality of popular votes in only the 11 most populous states, containing 56% of the population of the United States, for a candidate to win the Presidency with less than 22% of the nation's votes!


"The President follows four rules: knowingly lie; denigrate your enemies in cartoonish terms; flood the media with your bombast; and never, ever stop doing the first three things."
.
With respect, this is nothing different from what the Republican Party and the Conservatives have been doing for the last 25 years.  It is only a matter of degree.
.
You may wish to refer to Congressman Boehner's characterization of Senator Cruz, for example.


Agreed.  I see many obvious OAS BMWs and Mercedes out there.  The clawback should start at around $40K, basically at the limit of the first tax bracket, $60K for couples, and terminate the benefit at $60K/$80K, respectively, or thereabouts.

Asking if you have insurance is personal question?  Gosh I'm so sorry.
Why did you buy  Association of Mature American Citizens insurance?  Where did you find out about them?  The BBB thinks their ads are deceptive, aimed at scaring older people who aren't technically astute.

Both of them demonstrate the chasm between the rich and the rest of us. Hopefully we will survive the maelstorm of either.


It is too bad the understanding of most people in regards to energy generation, distribution, and use remains in the last century with little understanding of where things can and need to go.
Distributed generation and storage will evolve to much more reliable and inexpensive systems that we have been used to.  The concept of storage should not just be thought of as just batteries, for instance.  We have had grid storage in nuclear systems that run best at relatively constant output.  Pumped water storage was economical then as it is now. Thermal mass and phase change storage allows electric use at none peak times with making ice at night. Other forms of storage can be seen in phase change crystals in drywall. We will likely see a lot of grid stage as hydrogen which may be converted to things like ethanol for more convenient use in transportation.
HVDC lines are planned for moving energy from one part of the country to another.


IS are a group of psychopaths that would strike against any western target they could find. They have plenty of sympathizers among groups of immigrants in European countries, where they have arrived in large numbers and not attempted to assimilate with the general population. The key is to make sure that they don't gain a foothold in Canada by carefully vetting immigrants from the Middle East, especially those arriving illegally.


I was referring to his giddyup speed which threw defenses into damage control mode overall.
But then again, he had some pretty good rb's to compliment his running. But then on the other hand it's his overall skills that got him drafted. The days of just sitting in the pocket just doesn't cut it any more.


Could we let the bodies cool down before we start using them for politics?


Not really.  They elected him...


You're partially correct except that if you look at the "recent" billing and all the promotional materials, the 4 of them are always featured and if you watch the recent episodes of the show, they almost all get equal screen time, with the exception of Alex O'Loughlin which is the actual "star" of the show. The bigger question is why is Scott Caan getting higher pay then Kim & Park? It should be Alex O'Loughlin as McGarrett, then the three co-stars lumped together: Caan, Kim, & Park, then the rest of the cast....


Enjoy it while it lasts. The Islamification of Canada has begun.


Well Denby, the trolls and uglies are out to get ya now.  But your and others' clear headed honesty will certainly prevail in the battle ahead.  Good on ya pal.  jerry69 and his pals better take cover.  About time!

i feel for the Nieri and Thorp families...and certainly for James , and what the days, & months ahead have in store with his heart and body trying to heal.  Taylor was definitely a 'one in a million' young lady.


You mean the Castle Foundation is disappointed that their 50 grand can't influence who they wanted? Either you grant someone money or not. To take it away, makes it seem as though the money didn't buy them what they wanted.


Look at the recent bill on Obama care - they combine tax cuts for the wealthy with cuts in the Obamacare program. Pure Republican idiological dogma.


Sad that Obama etal did not do anything constructive to fix the problem. Sad  that the Syrians did nothing for years to fix their internal problems. Sad that no other country other than the US is taking a stand. Sad that those that have no solution to offer are extremely critical  ...guess they think that somehow/someone else will solve the problem for them. The world has tried the do nothing approach for ten years plus...and the result of this is a much bigger mess. Iran/Korea are watching with interest to see how much further they can push their cause to be nuclear powers.


Here is my favorite review of Brown's first book:

"I had trouble seeing Peter so much as a victim of his upbringing - but rather someone trying not to take responsibility for his own poor choices in life. At the end he says he now has a great relationship with his parents (although there is little discussion of how that happened) and that the parents are actively in his young daughters' lives.....If my parents messed up my life so badly I surely wouldn't want them involved with my children.....the story did just not ring true to me."

His latest sounds like another depressing tale of dysfunction masquerading as something deep and revelatory. I'll pass.


"If every conviction required a full 12 person jury vote, we would likely find that the threshold for acts treated criminally would steeply increase as the founders intended."

You must be unaware that Oregon does not require a unanimous verdict except in some homicide cases.  Louisiana also permits 10-2 verdicts.  Both have been upheld by the US Supreme Court.

"In Apodaca v. Oregon (1972), the Supreme Court held that the Sixth Amendment requires unanimity for a verdict — but that the Fourteenth Amendment does not carry this rule over to the states, and that even 9-3 verdicts are constitutionally permissible."


... what a spoiled BRAT MORON we have as a President!!


With all the guns out there in the hands of God-knows-who, I think many Americans have this haunting feeling.  I mean, we're all sitting ducks, just waiting our turn to be victims of the next guy or terrorist.  It's the role we serve in granting a so-called "freedom" to some people.  If you've got arms, it follows that you've got to have deaths.


More proof that the left is primarily interested in shutting down free speech that it doesn't agree with. The employee who did this was probably a hard-core lefty who didn't agree with whatever Trump is saying on Twitter, so naturally, the best way to deal with it is shut down Trump's free speech.


I will see-at this point Manafort is still very much entwined with this subject.

Public condemnation is the same for both Obama and Trump. Both were tried in the public 'court of law', found guilty, and then exonerated based on facts as they emerged.


I checked her Facebook page she actually lied about her child having cancer; I didn't want to believe that a person would actually do it; but sure enough for months she was on her page promoting her business and talking about her fight for her daughters cancer.

Truly sick and disgusting, exploiting your own kid for money.  How is loss of freedom and losing your children worth any amount of money?  Not just the money she got in donations but the money she got for her company because people used her business over others in a way to help her gain extra cash.

I'm beyond floored and her marvelous maid business which was expanding from Fairbanks to a second one in Wasilla I guarantee you is dead and gone now.


It doesn't appear that the governor is the problem folks. We call ourselves partners with the oil companies yet our partners make money while we loose money in the deal that was set up by our previous governor and our states congress that are still in office. In Alaska voting for a republican means voting to loose money in our partnership with the oil companies. The republicans refusal to dump sb21 (senate bill 21) even after school teachers were being fired, and my personal favorite, out of control criminal activity and no money to fight back gives me all the reason I need to vote these lackeys out. To vote for a republican is to vote against yourself. Voting for a republican means oil companies profits first, my needs ,maybe second. If your angry about your government , then change who you vote for and keep changing until it starts working for you. Look at your bank account, look at your retirement account. Do you like what you see? It doesn't matter who,just not republicans.


cont/...

Damn these character limits.

As I've said, while I don't agree with the veil I have to agree with the woman's choice to wear one. I can see how you feel this is a way to subjugate woman and reinforce the "property" aspect of a male/female relationship but isn't it better to allow the woman the opportunity to remove the veil in her own time rather than forcing her not to wear one? Isn't that just a different form of forcing an external viewpoint on her?

As for "numbers" whatever you meant was somewhat unclear. The wearing of a veil is still rare in Canada and terms like "mass immigration" are meaningless. What quantity is "mass"? What reduction in the current immigration levels would mena that it is no longer "mass". And frankly even with our current immigration levels, the number of women wearing a veil is very, very low.

Yes you, and we, should always be concerned about our freedoms but I don't see that there is much evidence that Muslims in Canada are to be feared.


Me too! And Amazon is not the only egg in the basket; example, Newegg (forgive me.) Besides, we can order from the U.S.-it used require jumping through a few hoops but I have noticed that it has gotten quite easy now.

Neither government nor special committee have established a practical proportional representation. But the BC Citizens Assembly has. It received expert veteran checking from Dr James Gilmour, asked by Iceland to conduct STV elections to their special assembly.
Canada itself used STV/PR for some 30 years in 4 cities provincial elections and for up to 50 years in some municipal city elections.

There have been tragedies around the country and around the world," Saltzman says. "I wasn't going to have a tragedy on my watch when I had the authority to do something."

Saltzman still doesn't understand--he doesn't have the authority to do what he did.

Makes me wonder if he's been on the Commssion too long--he believes he makes the rules regardless of purview or legal jurisdiction. Tomorrow he'll be changing zoning law to facilitate a project he likes.


Nope. That was arpaio. How are you seriously defending rapists right now?


It'd probably take some time for those instances to decrease as all the ones who thought people like us were bluffing would have to "drop dramatically" first.


The pics of those camps are just gross. APD really needs to clean them out again and keep doing it. I'm not without sympathy but our public spaces should not be allowed to look like this.

No, but they will be able to get financing to take out the VTB when banks realize they have earnings to generate. Most people with 800k to put down have *some* understanding of how money works. Not all of them, but most.


Editorial standards seem to be getting lower.  The author is making childish mistakes as though he doesn't know the topic.  First in setting "rules" against "people" or pastoral care as though the "rules" (which is a kind of silly word for Church teaching about morality, as though Christianity is Islam or Judaism) have nothing to do with the care of souls.

And next concerning canonization.  Does the author simply not know what a saint is and what it means to canonize one?  That a saint is not a folk hero/celebrity "good person" (not that the two mentioned even make it into that category) or even an exemplary Christian but someone who has attained the Beatific Vision.  And that canonizing someone is a declaration that he is definitely in that state.  Which is why it is (or used to be) a long and cautious process, so long that Albert the Great wasn't canonized until about 1930!

These are not matters of opinion but of fact.  "Why does the Church have rules?"  "What does "saint" mean?


It seems to me, if governments wouldn't waste our tax money, governments would need less tax money and Canadians could pay less taxes and Canadians would have more money to buy goods and services to help businesses survive and do more business and expand and hire more people.


From a  poster:
"For a contributor to scream to stick with the plan, the re-build, and to rightly, given that view, question the Boyle trade, for that poster to then turn around and attack someone who essentially agreed with him that the trade was questionable at best, I don't get it."
"Said poster then goes nuts pointing out how this trade makes sense, at least according to others."

Apparently, this post "goes nuts" and is the "attack":
"A poster on this thread was "trying to find someone who can explain how trading a 2nd rounder and a prospect for an aging slow footed 4th liner fits into this so-called plan...". Last week, the Hockey News outlined exactly the rationale for this trade. (I guess the poster does not read the Hockey News). Although the asking price for Boyle was projected to be a 1st round pick.
http://thehockeywriters.com/maple-leafs-should-target-brian-boyle/"

Wonder how Brian Boyle feels about being called an "aging slow footed 4th liner"....speaking of attacks.


When you tweet and someone who disagrees with you replies with a Breitbart link to prove their point, that's called Klansplaining.

Interesting response to something JGD wasn't talking about.


Liberals love to sell a carbon tax by saying "It will force us to become more competitive in using and producing energy".

Nonsense!
It will force a lot of Canadian manufacturers into bankruptcy.
It will force manufacturers looking to invest in Canada to look else where.

We keep getting told we live in a global economy and competition is everything.  Our government just tied both of our hands behind our backs and threw us in the ring.


Fortunately, Matthew threw in "intensive purposes" just for the pedants to rage over... thank you!

His wife was his teacher when he was 14 and she is 24 years older than him.  Something not quite right there.


It's funny.  I looked at the dispatch logs after I read this article.  ALL of the santa clara fire dept that responded to the fire were there with in 5 minutes.  The Eugene units were there in 10 only because they were not at the station when the fire was reported.  DONT blame the fire for their response times,  They do a great job.


And what does that Foundation do, Jeff, with those millions? It builds hospitals and schools in poor countries. It is called a charity. Harper made the Aga Khan an honorary Canadian because of those good deeds.

Edwards, on the other hand, co-owns the Calgary Flames. And this oil billionaire wants taxpayers' money to help build a new hockey arena in Calgary.

Can you spot the difference? The first clue is that an orange is not an apple.


As does Islam genius. Oh and subjugation of women, and the KILLING of non-Muslims. So your point is slag. Could me and my transgender bf get married in a mosque? Get a grip.


It's been a long time since the Sec of State actually did the audits job because any faults would lie at the feet of the Democrat Party that controlled government and hired all the managers,  administrators,  and civil service help which,  of course,  was required to belong to one of the various public employee unions and pay dues to elect,  of course,  more Democrats.  All the legacy of John Fitzgerald Kennedy,  the horn dog intern banging President so admired by the left.  He allowed the Feds to unionize the bureaucracy.  Big mistake.  Look what they are doing to Trump under cover of union protection.  Leak,  and leak some more.  Untouchables.  And no different in Oregon.  Public employees are untouchables.  A protected class.  The enemy of the 'deplorables.'


Skepticism and ignorance seek a path to reason.
Religion can't tolerate anything but fanboy faith.


This legislative flurry in the Anchorage Assembly and State legislature will result in a lawsuit being brought against the Muni by taxi emblem permit holders and the will win, resulting in tax burden to the property owners so Uber ca make a profit. Stupid in spades.


In the immortal words of BO, 'come onnn maan'.  So, he’s either incompetent or a liar.  The dog ate my homework (my assistant forgot to completely fill out my security clearance form; I didnt notice I signed if.  I also forgot to report 10M in assets from my original disclosure form?)  I didn’t read the email completely (missed the heading that said ‘russia and Hillary?), I just show up at random meetings my idiot, I mean smart phone tells me to > point finger at brother-in-law.


There ya go! Thank you James


The left worries that conservative judges like Gorsuch will interpret the law as it is written.  Instead they should be relieved that he and others are not inclined to legislate from the bench as liberal judges are inclined to do.  Imagine where that would take us.  Half or more of the bureaucracy in Washington could be ruled unconstitutional.


All about me? Yeah, that's whole reason I quit smoking cigarettes right after I got married way before I had a child, the reason I spent months eating really well, taking supplements and vitamins, not drinking and not smoking pot because it was all about me and I totally didn't care about the future of my "baby". Goofy huh? Oh that's a nice thing to say but you're telling me fetuses is an inappropriate term? Truth is that morning sickness or rather HG which is what I had, can be dangerous to both the mother and baby. It is in no way selfish to smoke pot if it's helping you which in turn will help your baby. Don't let people take away your medicine. It's probably safer than the pharmaceuticals they'll give you that are involved in lawsuits over birth defects, it's safer than starving, getting anemic, malnourished, anorexic and dehydrated. I believe it could prevent post partum depression too and is a safer alternative to drugs used to treat post partum depression.


Q - What kind of loser loses $100,000,000.00 in 2005 ??


And then what, Janette? What do you do with the information? Keep your children away from them? But if they are not people in your family's social circle, would your children have been playing in their yards to begin with? And virtually all sexual abuse of children is committed by those people who are in the family's social circle, often family members themselves, not by someone you don't really know who is on the registry and happens to live in the neighborhood. Certainly you need to and want to protect your children, but this is best done when you have the facts.


*ad1. I have a PV system installed in 2011. I now need to increase the amount of panels to cover charging of a EV, but, HECO will not allow it, unless I give up the net metering status. It is not in their best interest to let me increase the out-put. As I say, it will always be profits first with HECO.


If the World was made aware of the brutality of the CCP, first, nobody would buy anything from China, and then the people of China would wake up and arrest the ones who had committed the horrible atrocities against humanity and the cruel CCP would cease to exist. For example, a young lady was illegally arrested for practicing Falun Dafa. They brought her to a hospital and asked her to sign a document giving the state the right to harvest her organs. She knew they meant while she was still alive. She refused so they beat her, knocked out a few teeth, then cut off her fingers. Unthinkable cruelty that is never mentioned by Western media nor the U.N. because of corporate greed.


Probe? Sure thing.

Right after the probe into the sanity of the current POTUS.


Trump is just a proxy, shorthand for character traits you value. If you think lying, fraud, misogyny, xenophobia, extreme narcissism, self-dealing hypocrisy, breaking of promises sacred (nuptial) and profane (debts) are all just peachy, then go for a Trump supporter.


We, along with the UN were in combat against the North Koreans in the Korean War - the PPCLI won the Presidential citation there and we had 5,000 troops involved. We are technically still at war with that country and you say that they are no threat to Canada? GET REAL.

The hate for NK??? A country that is about to vaporize its neighbors and us? You must be on crack.


So Trudeau is like Trump willing to forget about facts and act like  there was a real investigation to determine what happened.  He is also willing to forget about international law and the rule of law and the  UN charter to which he claims  to serve. I doubt his father would have been so inclined to throw international law under the bus so fast.


Indeed.


Uh oh. The attorney's are circling, doing government work and hiding details, along with the shifting bureaucratic sands, it looks like another local issue that could take decades to resolve.
Aren't there descendants of Eugene Skinner who live here?

Thank you for your gift but I'm sorry Mr Skinner, It was once thought that gifts to the public that were firm in title would stay that way. Gives one pause to consider ever donating land to the public.


Of course there is that inconvenient fact that their culture included slavery. Their whole economy depended on it. Even after slavery was abolished the southern culture had the keeping of blacks as second class citizens as its ultimate aim.


Yes crime has always been part and parcel of the tourist trade in Waikiki but the criminal elements
there now are much more hardcore and they need to dealt with by the City, the hotels and
HPD.  Assigning more CRU units there along with more officers would help. Vice should also
be there in force focusing on the pimps and prostitutes and drug trade. If these people get the
idea that everything is open for them, they will increase like the cockroaches they are.
Temporary increasing police presence is like trying to put out a oil fire with water.  You tamp it
down but it springs back right up.


I don't understand how Notre Dame is directly involved in funding anything. They are not self-insured, at least for students. The student plan is offered by Aetna, which covers many colleges and universities. The other issue is that grad students are required to enroll in the plan, so that requirement automatically means that any contraception must be out of pocket. Individual plans are far too pricey or limited for most students, so I don't see how ND is not imposing its beliefs, not only on ND students, but on Aetna, which probably has a boilerplate policy for colleges and now has to make a special plan for the opt-outs.


Yes in some cases it may. But here I see someone who has an unrealistic sense of return on investment.


Easy solution  ...   Penguin's star is out as a result of intentional bush league play by the Caps, so remove Ovechkin until Crosby returns.


You must be reading someone else's posts.  Tell me where I posted "selling guns illegally and threatening others with guns is par-for-the-course among gun owners".  Those are your words not mine.


George Wallace said in 1961 precisely what Abraham Lincoln had said on September 18, 1858 during the Lincoln-Douglas Debate in Charleston Illinois.

12,000 people attended the debate.


The photo at top gives an entirely new meaning to "high tunnel".  But Skagway?  We're taking care of 500 or so people in a far corner of the state first?  Might as well approve the first store in Tuntutuliak.


I walked from one end of that store to the other, no staff person to be seen. So I guess not many jobs lost.


Rich teams shouldn't be allowed to manipulate the LTIR to get rid of bad contracts.  This "Lupul loophole" needs to be closed.


$2k for a ~seven year old beater? At that price you are looking at something that's been well beaten already.


I hear a lot of people speculating that Anchorage has a serial killer.  I understand that police want to protect their investigation; but citizens deserve to know how safe/unsafe it is for them to be in local parks and trails.  Police need to tell us more!


Trump continues his tiresome practice of mixing implied threats with implied suggestions that reasonable accommodations are possible.  Canada and Mexico need to ignore this one man Greek Chorus and maintain a fact-based, firm but reasonable focus throughout these negotiations.

If Trump renews his threats of withdrawal from NAFTA if his demands are now accepted without reasonable compromise and reciprocity, then Mexico and Canada (and the peoples of both countries) need to be prepared to suspend negotiations until such threats are withdrawn.

There are many interests in the US that will act to thwart US withdrawal from NAFTA in such circumstances.  If we're firm but reasonable a reasonable, balanced reform of NAFTA is possible but Canada and Mexico will be tested throughout by Trump's temptation to bully.


"fore" not "for". I forgot to mention the issue of sovereignty. When critical infrastructure monopolies in the private sector get bought up by overseas interests, sovereignty is in big doc-doo. Thats is the situation in the UK where its gas and electricity utilities are all controlled by other European countries - that wasn't so bad before Brexit maybe but a different matter now.


Congres dropped the ball by not installing standard airline coach seats in which the airline overlords would be obliged to sit for the hearing.


I think it conservative idiots who cannot react in proportion.


You might want to do some research on states that do all of their elections by mail, nothing you are saying is true.  Your own party members admit why they don't want mail-in balloting, get in the loop ther rich.

HRS, correct. We, and the big island have excellent police officers, and yes, there are the bad as well. I see Allie attributed much of her comment to the police force, which was not my intent, but rather illustrating how much crime is rampant on the big isle.


Uh...Wow! I've gotta say that mug shot is disturbing, as well as the story of the helpless infant. Sad.


I keep hearing "there's no there there burgers" on Fox News. Except from Shepard Smith!


Wow the public employees unions sales tax that isn't really a sales tax should just about cover pers. Ahhh utopia Oregon. Does it come with a side order of virgins?


.

Erdogan is trying to put into place the "Managed Democracy" that Putin has imposed on Russia, wherein a fig-leaf of controlled media (while allowing a few ineffective opposition outlets to exist as long as they remain ineffective) and sham elections keep the dictator in power indefinitely.

Erdogan sees how Putin is able to control the message and the political process while looting the nation and he wants that for himself.

It's no coincidence that he is cozying up to Putin.

Expel Turkey from NATO and end any ties to the EU.

Dictatorships have no place in NATO or the EU.

Let him try to build the Turkish economy with Russia as his partner.

.


So the President quits and pouts. Who in recent Alaska history is also a faux conservative populist who demonstrated that when the going got tough, she got out?   And now the "Twitter Quitter" is apparently satisfied that a perverse form of "mass punishment" of Americans is a solution to the health care problem.


Time to hold that bozo to full account.


You got that from this article???? Wowwwwww!


Most people resist change and when competition is involved change is inevitable.  If you want a slower, more traditional race then run the Yukon quest. Mitch and Dallas have changed the way the race is run and have proved that they can win with teams that haven't been pushed to the edge but that would continue down the trail if the race was even longer.  It isn't just resting dogs in the sled, they also train year round! Most mushers are used to taking the summers off and it takes a lot of effort to figure out how to exercise dogs in the summer.  Also mushers like nick petit, who wasn't resting dogs in his sled, almost caught them so the resting dogs isn't the only way to win. Iditarod isn't going to slow down and if you want a camping trip where you build fires in the wilderness and cook the beaver you just killed to feed your dogs then start a new race.  There are plenty of other races to run or you can run Iditarod knowing that your not going to be in the top 30.


Canada's Climate Change Policies under the Federal Liberals (as near as I can tell.)

Let's kill the Kyoto Accord.... Yea, Canada !

Let's build export pipelines to send tarsands to China....  Yea, Canada !

Let's tar and feather a NDP/Green from BC for not voting for Crusty.... Yea, Canada !

Let's blame Donnie for withdrawing from the Paris Climate Agreement....

Booooooooooo, Donald !


True but in most cases I think that's a good thing as it forces you to examine the comment in isolation and evaluate it on its own merits rather than potentially being biased because of who has posted it.


Oh to be the business manager of a civil rights law firm this afternoon.


Think those are revealing? Ever wear a pair of speedo's in the 70's. It was a swim team requirement.
Not that I looked as good as the girls in booty shorts probably did but there you go.
 One would think that people would've grown out of the Victorian standards by now.
Scream indecent then go home and watch tv where ads use sex to sell everything from beer to roast beef sandwiches. We live in such an odd society where killing on tv is ok but people will get offended from a woman breast feeding a child and booty shorts


The judge is doing his job.

The source of all US law is the Constitution.

The office of the presidency is a creature of the Constitution.

It is governed by the Rule of Law, just like everything else.

The decision is not a denial of federal power.  It is merely a re-statement that executive power must be exercised within Constitutional bounds.


Gee whiz, Nick, how do you NOT know about Carl Marrs, et al?  Bill Allen was his groomsman at his spendy wedding.   Steven Box wrote a good book titled,  "Crime, Power and Mystification."   The book shines a light on the benefits of corruption.


Fat chance...Donald can only talk about his issues.....and Justin can't talk.


I just don't get Trudeau's statement that Canada is less of a country because of the passing of Gord Downie. First and foremost Downie was an entertainer, an entertainer whose appeal did not attract all of Canada , despite the over the top accolades. Canada is not the sum of one man or woman or many men and women. Canada as a country is defined by many things and people, it is not defined by one man. Any of the interviews with Downie came across showing a man who loved to perform,nor more nor less. His legacy will be the music, he didn't expect or ask for sainthood.


Ya know... I reads lot of comments... And it's like there are two different languages....which is really kind of sad.... And it does seem to be the right that's pushing the wedge.....

We have a lot of folks who will confuse their opinion with a fact.... and describe things in exaggerated terms....with a lot boogie man.... People are already babbling about the demise of America if Hillary wins...emotion over reason type stuff....

Maybe the Internet has caused people to think they're smarter and better informed then they really are... Look at any discussion of climate science and they come out in droves....

I think what some call infringement of their free speech... Usually the left is doing it... Is actually them getting called on their statements and claims.... My ignorance or misinformation is not equal to another's knowledge and experience.....and things that are wrong should be discarded... Today they take on a life of their own....


That's not the situation described in the article.


"138,000 of us voted to build the gasline if we can make it work."

Oil companies who do this for a living have opted out. That right there is a big ass red flag Walker cannot make this work at a profit.

How far you willing to deplete Alaskan's to figure out what the oil companies already have?

Your IF is at a price more costly than losing a few billion dollars on a one term governors wet dream. Your gamble is causing massive funding to be redirected from public schooling. Your IF is causing severe economic hardships which lead to stress which affects families being healthy. Your IF reduces public services and resounded times.

Moreover your support of this BS project has caused relationships between representatives and governmental agencies in Alaska to fight one another for a fractured budget. Workers in place who protect communities, teach children, secure a safe way of life.

Who has already benefitted from the millions upon millions already thrown at this pipeline? Not Alaskan's


None really, that's an old myth used to discourage third party voting and citizens right to vote their principles.


Yes of course.  It's not acceptable to root out adherents to radical Islam by asking them questions about their faith and their mindset.

Justin uses hugs and his sunshine meter to figure out who the bad guys are.


Thanks for the links. I love a good statistic. I'd start with separating the premise of violence and politics though. The latter is the easier. Regardless of the politics, gun control advocates (not gun ban or forfeiture dreamers) aren't very concerned with what a person believes when they shoot the gun, they want to reduce immediate access for a number of reasons. The former, the shooters themselves, I'm personally not concerned with either. I don't look as race, religion, etc, as a causality. Other people can have other opinions. So, I agree, to an extent the group you are referring to is stereotyped just as much as the myth of the thousands of sleeper cells in america based on ethnicity or religion. It's a fine line between profiling in a common sense way and abuse. The lines are pretty blurry these days.


The pre SB-21 CBR was 13 billion dollars ( the exact amount needed to build a gas line  ) until Parnell gave it to the oil companies. No industry except crude oil is,or has been, promoted by the oil company representatives in our Legislature. No infrastructure has ever been considered that provides any incentive for business Alaska that does not serve the oil industry. Companies , other than oil, find it cost prohibitive to operate in Alaska because of the high utilities, and logistics. They either have no access, or it costs too much to operate a business in an oil monopoly. Republicans have done this to Alaska intentionally to get the PFD when it is at it's highest point ever. They refuse to proceed with potential new sources of income such as a gas line,or Cannabis, or alternative energy projects that would lower the cost of doing business in an all out effort to keep the oil industry profitable, for themselves. They are why we NEED the Federal Governments protection.


And now the gun haters will begin their rants..........

You don't read editorial writers? But apparently you read this editorial and others as well. I am impressed that you can read. But you realize that you can't refute editorials and at the same time, say you didn't read them.


If it is refundable, wouldn't they call it a refund rather than credit?


AMEN,AMEN AND AMEN.

After being born here, leaving to CA for 20 years in 85 and moving back, I am shocked at the never ending economic depression that exists in this state and the never ending requests for increased taxation. You all remember that when you are writing your checks to the Lane County Tax Assessor in the coming months (which is $4500 in my case). These people will never stop unless we stop them.


This is who he is.  Everyone knew it from the beginning, and if you didn't, shame on you.  Anyone who thinks he can or will change is a fool.


I spoke to a CBS polling contractor who told me a week or more before the election that that they had a great deal of uncertainty in their polling. The fact that uncertainty was not reported was telling (to me) that the reported positive polls for Mrs Clinton were a failed attempt at influencing voters. Why isn't anyone concerned that CNN attempted to influence the election?


Never heard of it.


What would you know about honesty. You are the one trying to convince people that trucks are such a great bargain and then go about denying what automotive journalists and people say about the horrendous costs of ownership of Trucks. Honest would be admitting these costs and their excessive contribution to CO2 omissions.

Your vain attempts to discredit the EV world was actually quite dishonest with constant talks of bankruptcy and other non existent problems. What would you know about honesty?? Seriously.

I'm not surprised your on the Rebel - most people that ignore science are.


Interesting.  Well, Hawaiian activists ought to get off the TMT case and start advocating for entitlements in Congress.  It could all be erased.


How ridiculous!  Better for whom?  The middle-class Canadians that have to bear the financial, economic and environmental brunt of mass immigration?  Better for the veterans that are unable to get housing or care that they need?  For the un- or under-employed Canadians who are competing for jobs with 300,000+ immigrants and refugees every year?  For the seniors who can't afford medications?  We can still be decent in a way that does not involve opening our doors to the displaced and disadvantaged people of the entire world.


Oh well, that gives Panya something to do.  There he was bored out of his mind dreaming up weird and fruitless  schemes of spending money, on tablets and sanitary pads, when some hairy brats come to his rescue, giving him an opportunity to to don his mantle as protector of the downtrodden and the dropouts.


Young people are thinking for themselves?  They are?

Young people are the ones most likely to crumble under peer pressure.  Young people are the ones most likely to parrot what they have been told by the media and entertainment industries.  It is one reason why advertising is geared to them...it is relatively easy to tell them what they think they want...and they will buy the product and the concept.

And although you refer to your book often and claim pre VII is the fear to be avoided...Perhaps the fear that is being inculcated into them now is what should really be avoided - the fear of bucking the system that offers such pressure, the fear that to truly think for themselves will ostracize them, and the fear of a secular world bent on obliterating Truth & belief that does not line up appropriately with its agenda.

What say you?  Although it doesn't fit your narrative.....


Mueller and his side kick need to recuse themselves.


you seriously believe "that the Conservatives years of hyper fund raising "cash for access"passed without notice"?

Given that the Conservatives couldn't pass gas without being pilloried in the liberal media (Robert Fife included) your statement is laughable


Time to give the Puerto Ricans their freedom.


"Yet angry white men voted him in. All because they are afraid of the future and want to go back in time."

Way to go with completely not getting it and expressing your prejudice against working-class men. I voted for Bernie Sanders in the primary and Jill Stein in the general election but I understand the economic frustration and anger that elected Trump, because I'm working-class. A lot of people are tired of struggling to make a living in an economy that is rigged against them. And a lot of those struggling are not white. Or men.

You really need to do some reading. I suggest: "Listen Liberal" by Thomas Frank; "Our Kids" by Robert Putnam; and "Hand to Mouth" by Linda Tirado. Or, if you're not willing to learn, you can just keep losing elections.


These injection sites should be located in Liberal riddings.


Good post.


Oh Wow oh Wow!   I just wish I was AS "connected" as all these insightful people responding to this article.   PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!    God, you people are unbelievable!!!!!!    Google, like Microsoft, Facebrag (er, Facebook) and Twits (er, apologies again, Twitter), are all nothing but corporations wanting to make as much money, in (almost) anyway possible.  Are they better than the Standard Oil's, US Steel and other oligopolies of the past?  Yes, in some ways.  But make no mistake about it, they will do (and push) the boundaries, both legal and ethical, as much as they can to improve their bottom line.  Having spent 25+ years in the investment industry, ALL on the institutional side, I can tell you from experience that these companies are as ruthless, and in some ways more insidious, than their predecessors.  Unlike corporate monsters of the past, these inceptions now control everything you watch, listen to and follow, then use it against you.  It's 1984 in 2017.......WAKE UP PEOPLE!


Yes, jobs are up.  The stock market is up.  The illegals are self-deporting even before the wall has started.  Our country is back on it's way to greatness again.


Yeah, because they never had wild fires until the last 150 years.

 If, you're attempting to attribute this to climate blame, please try to keep religion out of the conversation...


Perhaps another perspective might be, that we are too focused on our own wounded-ness and we might want to less self-absorbed and more concerned with our fellow human being and how we are treating them and sacrificing for them and doing for them. It can be quite healing and allows one to forget one's troubles more so that merely being active and dropping the rope. Radical love and altruism is likely more important than radical acceptance.


I didn't know we were the only state to oppose this.


Promotion?? What about an outright firing!


Wavemaker, as you well know, there is no such thing as serious jail time passed out in Alaska.

Within a matter of weeks very lucrative plea deals will be reached for all six defendants with some judge agreeing to give them a 'stern talking too and time served'. Of course in light of recent events in Nome, the judge will likely not have the backbone required for the 'stern talking too' portion of the sentence.


btw, that south American country is Venezuela, a country rich in oil resources, but government socialistic policies have caused chaos in economic structure of the country, leading to almost a complete collapse of economic activity, no jobs, high prices, no food housing, etc.


I have been to Halifax and have heard zero about this? Must be just a commercial to sell jewelry.


Thank you Denver Post for giving the bike helmet window lickers a voice. Sure they have a right to believe whatever and say whatever they want, but their right to believe in a flat earth does not supercede my right to laugh at them.

Fact is, they grasp at straws with flawed maths and wild conspiracy theory. Quite simply, they are wrong.

And dont fall for the poor me they spout here. Watch their videos on YouTube. They are the most arrogant and intellectually dishonest people on the planet. They ridicule just as much as their opponents.


Spoken like a true Liberal, spitting on the grave of the dead. Classless goons.

I say to Mr. Kawaipunahele aka;Patrick Stewart, Good Luck with that  US citizenship application. First Red Flag? Unable to assimilate with the Leader of American  people .....It;s  as stupid as me saying: I want to be  British subject/citizen so that  I can Oppose the Queen of England.

The Church has been patriarchal since you became a Catholic (and long before then....).  Now you protest that culture?  Operative word is "protest."

What does the Church stand for if it changes like the wind at the demand of the current culture?


Well, it's "silly and juvenile" to one outsider - you.  And you've spent many hours over several years telling Canadians that.  A reasonable person might wonder why.


I see the well fed cats at Kanaha hunting all the time. You don't understand cats at all if you think feeding them turns off their hunting instinct. There are over 1,000 cats at Kanaha after years of TNR and it obviously DOES NOT WORK!!!!

If you want to be a cat hoarder don't impose your mental illness on the rest of us by doing it in our parks and filling the beach sand with cat feces.


Both Duffy and Wright should be prohibited from holding any public office as both of them along with Harper betrayed all of us (Canadian taxpayers). BTW is Duffy working for us? or just collects paycheck for doing nothing.


And if I actually go where you suggest I go, I end up here:

https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2015/crime-in-the-u.s.-2015/tables/table-20

and if you tot up the total homicides in 2015 (more recent data!) you get 13,455 of which 9,616 are from firearms, which is actually up over 70% of the total.  So Nohman... not sure what you're looking at.

Again, I'm not really fussed about arguing the issue itself, just pointing out when "alternative facts" are quoted.


AnonAJ, deep gratitude for sharing that about your husband dealing with his physical problems with "a lot of class." I find that inspiring. I was dealt a very severe blow this year healthwise and have really been knocked for six. I'm going to try and follow your husbands example. Thank you!


Protecting the PFD is no sideshow - no more than protecting individual's personal bank savings accounts.
The real deception is ignoring the oil/gas tax & credits, those are the mega-swindles we Alaskans are enduring - yet from the Gov. on down, no one attempts to fix it.
Continuing with mega-projects -including the obscene Pipe Dream -- now those fall into the felonious dereliction of duty category.
15% of Fed.Inc Tax is not onerous & Pres.Trump plans to reduce FedInc tax. I favor a small Income Tax.
A statewide Sales Tax is appropriate. Take time to read, understand the little book "THE FAIR TAX" The very poor need not be hurt.
Attempting to buoy up the statewide economy by gubmut spending is as wrong-headed as mega-spending on an LNG line & dreaming of a miracle to make it profitable. Govt spending to "fill our budget to maintain a vibrant economy." is pure ideological malarkey.
I do agree with the obvious - that we should tax Gross volume & Gross sales of oil/gas -NOT the NET.


On the other hand, we can stand by and watch a loved one suffer through yet another 'faint hope' treatment, knowing full well there is 'no hope' but yet we are told its in their best interest. Sorry, not from where I am standing and personally, I have already made my wishes clear. Hopefully, you'll never have to make a decision like that.


As opposed to the party that not just condones--but actually celebrates--infanticide, sodomy {you know, grave sins which cry to Heaven for vengeance}, and open borders? Please.

I think the "pork and beans" doctrine applies here. You'll recall that it was first articulated by His Eminence, Eustacius Cardinal Van Camp, at the Second Council of  Cibus in 1397.

Education is mostly funded by realestate taxes and not everyone pays those, not even all parents.  If you want vouchers that's fine - I am not against vouchers I am simply against vouchers that are used as partial payment, which makes them a subsidy for people who can afford the difference between what the voucher provides and what the actual school cost is.  Press schools to accept vouchers as full payment and we have no disagreement at all.


Criticizing in this instance, is trying to influence business owners into firing staff or denying expression of that freedom. The original protest was to bring light to a problem. Trump made it personal. He deserves everything he gets.  I never heard anyone complaining about people waiving the flag or standing at attention.


It says all the accusations about what Trump said was just posturing for political purposes.


I'm not using that as an excuse. The past happened. It happened everywhere in the world. Human history is not pretty. You can't look back. Throwing money and apologizing only creates a martyr situation. Why can't people see that?


So Byrd, who was an actual LEADER OF THE KKK is cool, because he "renounced" it? Yet Trump is a nazi sympathizer with no evidence what so ever? A born and bred new yorker is a staunch confederate revivalist?

Do you guys hear yourselves?

This is what Carlson says. And it seems like this is a rather unusual school which doesn't mean that it's of lesser quality. But it seems that they have a different approach to teaching and should be evaluated in a different manner... their measures of student achievement should be different.

“Our school is based on community. We want to eventually be a sixth-through-12th grade school anyway, so we’re always going to have multiage learning happening,” Cushman-Patz said. “We want our communities to be able to engage with each other when it makes sense to do so, but at the same time, the space that we’re getting is an underutilized part of campus where Kaimuki’s students aren’t going.”

You know, Alberta & Killingsworth used to be the "crummy parts of town" up until a couple of years ago. That neat corner convenience store on 9th & Alberta was called "Murder Mart" for a reason. In the last 15 years, the neighborhood went from gangland to a more rock n' roll vibe, but it was still the "crummy part of town" throughout. That's where younger people were living. The restaraunts and bars there were hardly "expensive eating out," because they were hole-in-the-wall dives. Now that's all gone and we have "artisan ice cream stores" and "boutique shops." The same houses that were renting for $1200 are now going for $3000. New people just made it pricey in a short time. People are mad because they got essentially kicked out of their neighborhoods by old white money. So the complaining is not BS. Look past your own front yard and your own past every once in a while.


You know, Democrats could work constructively with the Republicans to design a replacement for Obamacare to the benefit of Americans.

On the other hand, they could just sit back on the rears like four-year-olds throwing a tantrum and watch Obamacare implode without even trying to help Americans.

Mike --- thanks for the dialogue. Hard to sharpen our foils with people who always agree.

I used to share your soviet-era view of economics. Had an epiphany many years ago though that good intentions are not as important results. You know-- that whole "tragedy of the commons" concept.

Without incentives to innovate and improve, the public education industry is
always going to take the "safe" and well worn path of education delivery that has changed very little since Horace Mann and the 1840's --because so many adults have a vested interest in that model.

Unfortunately for those people vested in the status quo, innovation and disruptive mastery-based education delivery models like Carpe Diem, Kahn Academy, Rocketship and many more are rapidly emerging. They will have the same effect on education that Uber has had in personal travel and Redfin is having on real estate transactions.

Without competition, we get the expensive stagnation that is the hallmark AK public schools.


Hmmmm...this news outlet is always lamenting the culture wars, but seems to be fanning the flames of, well...a culture war.  Why doesn't Coday et al come right out and admit it..."its bad when WE lose, but great when WE win!"?  At the end of the day, no one lost their mind in 2011 and no one is going to be dancing in the streets in 2017.  Many people refused to say "And with your spirit," just as many others will refuse to say "Glory to God in the highest and peace to God's people on earth." And the world will continue to turn.


Yes, I did, DG.
A Model T flatbed truck too. I was a tall boy, and the ability to reach pedals made the world much bigger for me than my mates.
In the later days of kidhood, my Uncle caught his right hand twixt the stalk rollers of a two-row corn-picker. Took him in to his elbow where he was able to kick and disengage the power take-off and stop the goddam thing. He sat on that tractor in agony and then shock through an entire afternoon before he was found. He was a man's man, and I loved him endlessly, and often think about that time he spent on his rig, alone.
I'll never forget the sight of his blood on that machinery.
To his great fortune, my aunt was a woman's woman and pulled him through it.

Your arguments are flawed in so many ways it's hard to keep up. First off, Alaska's Constitution doesn't say the state's wildlife belongs only to those who pay hunting license and tag fees. That right there makes your entire funding argument bogus. Wildlife belongs to all Alaskans, whether they hunt or not.  Therefore all Alaskans should have a voice, which includes fair representation of course, on the Board of Game.


Trump voters own every racist, bigotted, mysogynist utterance of their candidate.  Claiming not to be a racist is just more of the same White privilege denials attempting to justify their traitorous act against the nation and all human rights under the Constitutional Republic.  Their vote makes compatible hate and violence against all who dare to dissent from the whole package of anti-Constitutional statements made by every Republican running for office as they tried to outdo each other in their racist bigotry.  Trump stated clearly his hate and violent base nature born and bred in his German heritage.  Elena speaks truth.  "You just can't handle the truth".


why stop at the liberals?


Why has Canada - along with pretty much every other country- quietly enacted bank bail-innlegislation? This has happened just over the last few years. YOU the depositor are on the hook to recapitalize the banks. Money will be taken from YOUR account to achieve this.

Why have we had countries with negative interest rates? There is now over $13 TRILLION in negative interest government debt, world wide. What happens to all of the giant mortgages in this country when they come up for renewal, and interest rates are back to historical norms, which means that everybody's mortgage payments will DOUBLE?

Don't forget how the very low interest rates have crushed pension funds and insurance companies. Social Security in the US MUST invest in Government Bonds ONLY.

We are FAR closer to this entire mess tipping  over than you - or most people - realize...


Is two bucks a reasonable price to pay for a fair election?  I think so.


if you look at a graph from 1950 to the present and plot soft drink consumption along site the rise in gastrointestinal malignancies--esophageal, gastric, pancreatic, heptobiliary etc---the rate of increase in both are absolutely parallel to each other.

I don't recall you asking this of Mr. Kenney.


Lance Pruitt as Speaker of the House? You must be kidding. He is way too much of a uninformed twit to even continue being seen at the Alaska House of Representatives! Voters would do well to return him to his previous job at Sears.


By Calling Kim "Rocketman" Trump descends to the level of an immature middle school child. If the speech was written by a staff member he or she should be fired, if Trump wrote the speech himself he should stop writing now. The use of childish insults negates the impact of anything that is said afterwards.

In Kornoola Australia, a suburb of Melbourne, Muslims commandeered a public park. They forbid dogs.  They forbid women to sunbathe.   They forbid public BBQs being used by non-Muslims lest they cook pork on the grills. They forbid outdoor church services on Sunday, while holding prayer sessions for hundred of Muslims with amplifies calls of ALLAH AKBAR. Gangs of young Muslim men patrolled the park to stop outsiders from using the park for sports and recreation, sometimes violently.  The Muslims entered an application to build an enormous mosque that would hold 1500 people, thus taking over the park completely.  The usual accusations of Islamophobia and racism were issued by the usual socialist polticans, leftist media and Muslims. who poo-pooed all concerns about the loss of public space.


First of all, let's not put these idiotic opportunistic thugs on any side, whether it be left, right, or centre. These bozos are simply agent provocateurs looking for a free party and do not represent either political stripes.

Has anybody actually been charged for the killings prior to Marikana? It would appear that the horrific murder of those 10 has been reduced to a meaningless side issue.


Buster1960, not all women practice your religious dogmas. Most important is that the church needs to understand that just like the Health care for men covers their complete health that includes their reproductive organs, so does women's Health care cover theirs. Because women are the ones to carry the product of intercourse it stands to reason that contraceptives, pregnancies and when needed or wanted, abortions are also part of that coverage. As a man you also have no right to make health care decisions for women and their families. Enjoy your God and let others enjoy theirs. Women are very good at making their own decisions which benefit them and their families as well as society. Fewer abortions occur with affordable contraceptives. Less crime occurs with abortions of unwanted pregnancies. Have a Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year.

I subscribe to a watchdog website that monitors and posts videos of police brutality (the liberty cryer) and there are enough to raise an alarm in some places. I don't see so much a  systemic problem as I do a localized one. And the biggest problem is not the shooting but the police force coverup of them. Another big problem is always going strait to race as the cause. If there is a problem and you root out the wrong cause you fail to fix the problem and may well exacerbate it.

Nation wide police fatal shooting consist of 50% white, 25% black and 25% others. The only ones we ever hear about nationally are the blacks.  Why is that?

Another problem is that police almost always are justified  when they shoot someone, even in that case in Chicago where the cop shot a man over a dozen times while he lay on the ground.

If BLM wanted to work the issue instead of making a racial statement the would include the other 75% of the nation that are included in the shootings.


how do you see her being a lesbian make the situation any different if it were in a male/female spouse relationship?  i saw it as simply spouses cheating on their respective spouses having a hot and heavy affair at the workplace. always inappropriate...the locked door to the copy room and Jane Doe and John Smith are nowhere to be found.  . i don't know why gender is an issue in that all are female.

Good point on Manning. He always found a way to work around deficiencies on offense. He always make the o-line better, made mediocre receivers look better than they were, etc.

I loved the draft - it's just a matter of figuring out QB long-term. If we can get a franchise guy, whether it's on the roster already or not yet, then the team will return to competing for titles.

Nice to see the o-line getting the attention it deserves finally.


Lies.  Most of these "Valdez" people live in Seattle.  Crolwey's web site shows the headquarters for this division in WA.  Crowley also grounded a vessel.


You hit this right on the head.  I took a $10,000 pay cut from the DOE to go work at a private school so my daughter could go for free.  I only had 75 students a year, and about two hours of prep time a day.  I was way less stressed.  It's not always about the money.


Pardon me? Trump said "it's a military operation." He did not say "it's like a military operation." Amazing the baloney Trump supporters try to promote.


The fact that Pelosi was re-elected by the Dems is a stinking miasma of their insistence on ideologues.

It has nothing to do with what car he is driving.  A german oil-change from the dealer is easily $100-120 with OEM filter and factory-OEM synthetic oil

cost is actually a red-herring.  If someone could tell you your oil was good for another 5,000km with zero risk of engine damage, would you go out and change your oil, "just to be safe?"

The science shows that with a synthetic oil, oil changes can be done in a range of 12,000-20,000km.  Conventional oils sludge up in approx one-half the mileage driven.  The biggest risk to an engine failing over time isn't lack of oil changes, but low oil level condition between oil changes.


What makes a police officer's life more valuable than any other life? Why is one life, no matter the person, more valuable than the next?  A human being is a human  being, it does not matter if they are a grandmother, a father, a policeperson, a doctor, or a homeless person.  Every person has potential to do good or to do bad.


Yes the CIU needs closer supervision and/or re-organization.  More importantly though is why our controversial Police Commission failed to employ internal controls, investigate and take action on our infamous ex-Chief?   Not only did they fail to do their duty, many of the commissioners actually supported him and gave him a golden parachute.

We should not rely on outside agencies such as the Feds to be a stop gap for poor management.   The City Council needs to enact legislation now to improve the Police Commission's effectiveness, accountability, and transparency to the public.


I think that Burke would do well to retreat to a life of prayer and penance, forgoing public appearances and publications, for a minimum of one year. He seems to be flailing about, as though mired in quicksand.

The facts show that the current Senate bill is terrible for Alaska, and harms Alaska more than many other states.  For example, federal health care spending would decrease by 41.7% in Alaska, significantly higher than the national average of 32.5% (which is bad enough).  The state estimates the loss to be $3.1 billion.

The state says 34,000 Alaskans covered by Medicaid would lose coverage beginning in 2020.

Senators Murkowski and Sullivan have both expressed concern about how the bill impacts Alaskans.  During the recess they and their staffs have an opportunity to speak with constituents, people in the medical community- including nurses, doctors, and hospital staff), and find out more about how a bill hatched behind closed doors will adversely impact thousands of Alaskans.

America thanks you.


All of your comments and responses to this article have been full of falsehoods, no doubt fueled by leftist ideology. Zinke DID NOT overturn the ban on lead shot for waterfowl hunting, which dates back to 1991. Zinc overturned a ban on lead projectiles for hunting big game, i.e. rifle bullets. And there is a MAJOR difference in price for solid copper ammunition over traditional copper semi-jacketed lead ammunition. A box of Barnes TTX copper ammo is close to $50 per box. A box of Winchester Super-X (lead with a copper jacket) is just under $20. If hunters want to use copper, and pay more for it, fine, welcome to it. But this is something for the market to decide, not the legislature. If YOU want ME to use copper ammo, YOU buy it for me. otherwise, this is nothing more than a thinly veiled attempt to price me out of hunting. The end of hunting is your goal, not the protection of the environment.


The public sector union compensation will always remain high because the Liberals need to continue make happy their voting block.
Ditto for that other goof running Ontario.

That's the problem, you don't have the cultural context to understand that we already see about $300 billion prioritized elsewhere. Newcomers are our natural allies. They lived life on the same end of the dirt stick in their homelands we do as we do in ours.

You were once Newcomer and we showed you how to survive the winters and what to plant in the fall. Nowadays 70% of the world's food comes from  Indigenous plants, except you have a weird way of planting in the Spring on a denuded plot of land. We were the best of Trade Partners for 200 years, but you have already forgotten so much my friend. :)


Furthermore, self-government must be self-financed; otherwise they aren't even a semblance of an independent group. And I'm quite sure shutting off the financial support is not part of this Principle 4.

You raise an interesting point, paulsixe, with "...way more incorporated small businesses than anyone thought."

Oh, the government knows how many there are.  But, individually, they are anonymous. They're mostly "little guys"--I was incorporated, too, and worked out of my basement. More of them today than when I did it!

What the government DIDN'T see coming--because they are short-sighted and driven by the image in the mirror instead of their constituents--Is the backlash of so many anonymous individuals can lead to something the media loves--underdog backlash by "jus' folks."

And the fact they didn't that possibility--or if they did, wrote it off--is just politically stupid.


The problem with cars like the Dodge Demon is buyers who have more money than brains. Or they have puny egos that need a boost and show-off. That's OK if they give their Demon a workout at the drag strip, but not on a public highway.

The OPP recently charged 3 drivers with speeding (separate incidents) on a remote section of the Trans Canada highway near Lake Superior. Two drivers were doing 145 km/hr and the third driver was doing 151 km/hr, all in a 90 km/hr speed zone. They were driving a GMC truck, Jaguar and a Pontiac. Imagine what they could do in Demon.

The important thing is, will we be able to spend $120 million ($30 million in normal construction money translated to "Hawaii Construction Project Dollars") on the airport while still retaining the ugly and old look of the newly named airport? I can see where this will be like having an old beat up car with a brand new replacement panel on it.
All kidding aside, I do think it is important for Hawaii's airport to be able to accommodate the largest passenger aircraft in the world, and also think that the planners should look at what it would take to possibly increase any changes to allow for aircraft like the Stratolaunch.
