If the Legislators want to hold their sessions in Anchorage, it's probably a very good idea. However, it should NOT be for their convenience, or just for this special session. They should now realize why the Capitol should be permanently relocated to a more constituent friendly location like Anchorage, unless your primary loyalty lies with oil executives that live in the contiguous United States that lobbyists , and lawyers, with " secret agreements " to sign into law for Alaska. When it is just for their convenience, it suddenly becomes more important than for the people they work for to have easier access to their elected officials. They want new digs in Anchorage, fine, move the Capitol permanently away from the most difficult and expensive place to get to, or at least has road access.

Yeah, the Broncos are 3-1, and they'll likely beat Phylis & the chokers, along with the giants this month. (Hats & horns) But take a look at the schedule for the rest of the season - tons of away games and tough teams. If the offensive line pass blocking doesn't improve, this could be a 7-9 season or worse, and bad news for Trevor's health. FIX THE PASS BLOCKING somehow, or - as the soup nazi says: "No playoffs for YOU!!"

You are mistaken on NPR-A. In 2012, President Obama directed BLM to hold annual oil and gas lease sales in NPR-A. Many areas have been leased, exploration and discoveries have occurred, and these discoveries will be going into production such as Moose's Tooth 1 and 2, Willow and other hot spots. Under the 2013 plan, more than half of the Reserve is open to leasing. So no, the Obama administration did not produce a plan to obstruct, deny and stop the use of NPR-A. To the contrary, the Obama administration encouraged exploration and development through annual lease sales in promising areas while protecting the most sensitive areas for wildlife. A balanced, reasonable plan. Don't forget that Alaska has the largest land entitlement of all states --- 105 million acres of surface and subsurface lands with one of the lowest populations. The federal lands are public lands, conservation areas, and multi-use areas -- what Alaskans and visitors dearly value.

@Rex Kramer 99: I don't think you understand how insurance works. The whole idea of insurance is the spread of risk; the more people who buy insurance against a particular hazard, the lower the cost to each. In Canada, every citizen "buys" health insurance automatically - through their taxes. There is no "opt out" option. That's what the ACA tried to do with the individual mandate. Yes, it "forced" young, healthy people to buy insurance, because that spread the risk over more people so it was cheaper. When you permit the young and healthy to "opt out", of course many of them will, because when you're 25 you think you're going to be healthy and live forever! That left only the older or already sick who wanted to remain covered, so naturally the program couldn't sustain itself. The new "plan" hasn't solved this problem at all - in fact, it makes it worse. Now do you understand a little better? (I presume not, but I had to try!)

This is interesting information: The results of the poll numbers for this one representative look more like the poll numbers for a run-of-the-mill president, rather than a politician from Hawaii. As you can see from the other polls, the "other three" have way more lopsided poll numbers than Tulsi does. I'll go out on a limb here in interpretation by saying that the results are in direct relation to the level of game that Tulsi is playing in Washington. While she is representing her people, she is also engaged in a much higher game than just the internal baseball that, say, Schatz plays in the Senate (leadership positions more than taking national stances). So comparing the three to the one (Tulsi with the rest of the Hawaii Congressional Delegation) is a bit like comparing apples and oranges. And I think the people polled in this see that difference, and have reacted, accordingly. We will see if the support stays in the long term.

Never have I been so aware of the global nature of our wee planet. One nation can attempt to "retreat" from globalism but, the irony is, it inevitably has global impacts. When the dominant nation acts irradically the impact is incalculable - everywhere. The contemporary world issue is "how" to be global not to retreat or disdain. But you are not alone USofA, which is even scarier. When I hear pundits and wannabees refer to "the leader of the free world", shout to self: "you are not my leader". I retch and acknowledge my fear, not only for the United States of America but for myself, my planet. If there is one minute benefit to the "trump phenomenon" it is that the facades have thinned, hypocricy unveiled; evil and its equivalents have to be dealt with in ways that have been swept under rugs, hoods, slogans, pieces of paper and rhetoric.

As little as I like Trump, WE ALL are responsible for him sitting in the White House. I agree 100% on your description of him, but as a nation we elected him. This idea that he isn't my president, because I didn't vote for him is half the problem with our country today. We spend too much time demonizing the politicians or supporters of those politicians we disagree with, or acting like they got elected in a vacuum. They didn't. Those politicians were elected by all of us, even those who didn't vote for them. As a society, we have all laid the groundwork for the Trumps of this world to get elected. Sadly, I think that even crazy Roy Moore is going to win, exactly because we have all spent so much time getting entrenched in this idea that the opposition is somehow Un-American.

The problem with this argument is that the BC Liberals have not been running balanced budgets. Over the past decade the BC Auditor general(s) has reported that the BC Liberals have not followed Canadian normally accepted accounting practices. This has allowed massive debt to accumulate - they simply don't show it on the books. An example - need some highway infrastructure? Hire some foreign Private Public Partners. Get them to borrow the money at a much higher rate. Let them build the highway at a 30% higher cost than a public project. Then pay them out over a 35 year period. That, my friend, is debt. The BC taxpayers owe billions to the P3 gangs but that debt does not appear on the books - only the cost for the current year is shown. They have many other schemes in play to hide debt. BC is in a very deep financial hole with only half the infrastructure dollar value to show for the debt. But hey - the BC Liberals buddies got rich and that is all that matters to the Liberals.

Spare me the sob story. The same "real people", including "old people" pay the PERS benefits. The standard benchmark of pensions is the percent of final salary after 30 years of service. If you want to post data for 22 years of service, then show the equivalent. The fact of the matter is that a lot of Tier 1 money was stolen; the benefits are extreme by any comparison or need and "real people" in Oregon are suffering because of the abuse that resulted in the Tier 1 (and Tier 2 to a lesser degree) obligations on future generations of workers and tax payers.

These new rules essentially stripped 1000 dollars from my return. Childcare tax credits used to pay for yet another oil subsidy no doubt. You wish to talk something for nothing then explain the multi billion dollar subsidies to the fossil fuel industry. Explain the government support to research medications that are in turn made prohibitively expensive that most cannot afford to purchase. Corporate healthcare is running people into bankruptcy yet no one mentions that little point in the debates. Do you think they receive subsidies.

Until recently, it was illegal to collect rainwater that fell on your roof. I like the idea of requiring solar panels. Homes today are becoming larger and more inefficient than they need to be, with high ceilings. I would like to see all new construction be required to put 10 percent of cost into solar panels and/or efficient construction. A $500k house with $50k of solar panels can be mostly self sufficient with minimal reduction of living space. Although a better solution to rooftop solar would be municipal solar facilities where panels can be optimally aimed without worry of trees. A shopping mall could be covered with solar panels, and be self sufficient and then some. Skylights and light piping can hugely reduce electricity needs. How much energy is wasted trying to heat and cool the huge tents at DIA? And more evaporative cooling instead of refrigeration. Then we'll need less fracking and fossil fuel use.

I had two major rules for my twin boys in high school: no motorcycles, no football. It seemed absolutely senseless and a gross shirking of my parental responsibility to allow them participation in activities that courted permanent danger (TBI, paralysis, death) for the sake of sport. They enjoyed all the benefits mentioned in the article through band, debate, science, track & field and other club activities, and I've never for a second regretted my decision. Yeah, they were ticked, but it was my responsibility to shield them from obvious and serious risk. I do not understand parents and school districts that allow young kids (some in grammar school) to participate in this game. I do not understand why there isn't more discussion in the news & social media about this particular negligence. There are other sports that don't carry the same risks of permanent damage.

You owe me an apology, but I don't expect one. I agree that every president certainly has the authority (mandate) to make change. However, there is a huge difference between Trump's extraordinarily weak mandate and the robust mandates of past presidents, such as Johnson's when he thumped Goldwater in '64 and Reagan's when he crushed Carter in '80.

It takes nearly 300 ft^2 of space per parking space. If we insist on housing cars with nearly as much space as people (actually, cars take up five parking spaces when all driving is considered), then we are never going to return to having livable cities. Far too much of our city is given over to cars and their storage already, imo. I believe Portland is now experimenting with requiring apartment builders to separate the cost of providing car housing from the cost of the apartments. Those who want to house their cars get to pay the extra $300/month rent and the other tenants don't have to subsidize them. Even conservatives should like such a market-based approach.

IRT Paul Mizue, prostate cancer is the third leading cause of death in American men. More than 26,000 will die from it this year. It is a very slow growing cancer which takes about fifteen years from the time it starts until it kills you. Most deaths from prostate cancer can be avoided by early detection by digital rectal exams or blood tests for prostate-specific antigens (PSA). Early detection provides for more treatment options and longer survivability. I was diagnosed with prostate cancer. It was detected in an early stage. My urologists gave me three treatment options - radiation, chemo therapy and surgical removal. A fourth option was do nothing, but since I was in good health and not too old, the urologist said if I did nothing I would die from prostate cancer in about fifteen years and it would be a very painful death. I opted for surgical removal. That was seventeen years ago, I feel great, and hopefully have another fifteen years ahead of me.

I've lost track of how many interviews he's gone to. He's been the second choice for many. But he hasn't been hired and consistently the companies end up hiring someone in their 40s. They can pay them less because they have less experience and assume they'll stick around longer, ignoring that younger people commonly job hop now. One recruitment firm won't even look at his resume, we suspect because of his age. My dad could retire now, but he doesn't want to and keeps trying to get a job. He would love to still be working. I imagine there are a lot of Boomers in that position.

He flagged your comment because, like all your comments, they are racist. You haven't fooled anyone with your racist charade. I'll join in the flagging of all your racist comments. And I'll encourage others to flag your racist posts too.

You need to learn where the term 'Beltway' means.

Who the victim or the attackers? There are LOTS of folks like the attackers in that area. But there are also a lot of folks like the victim too.
