With the Governor tabling both a PFD funding "cut" and an oil tax credit payment "deferral" it will be interesting see how over rides by the legislature are proposed. Guessing about half the oil tax credits will be paid with the remainder owed till the funding is available. The PFD that isn't paid won't ever be paid. So both individual Alaskan's and the oil companies will get half of what they are expecting. But payments to the oil companies will be made in the future. Individuals will never make back up the shortfall of their expectation. Pain for all, but clearly the companies are getting the better of it. As my Dad use to say to me about my allowance: "I'll owe it to you; that's better than cheating you out of it".

Problem: the same organization that set a law, a law that it has said should be rigorously obeyed, now wants to keep that rigorous law.........but at the same time, puts forward a * new * law, a law that says the rigorous law can now, sometimes, be obviated by mercy, if one picks the right prelate to confess one's breaking of the rigorous law. I don't personally like the church's laws on divorce and annulment, but I can't really blame those who find the "mercy" law to be a confusing contradiction.

Whenever I am tempted to disagree with what the PM has decided I take a deep breath and reflect on two things. First, his truly stunning qualifications for high office (let's not forget that he was a drama teacher) and then this sterling accomplishments as an MP before being elected leader (was he not opposition critic on amateur sport?). With that perspective, any reservations disappear and I realize that our country is in the best of hands and that the PM must have made the right decision, after all. And to think that there are mean spirited persons who maintain that we would never have heard of the PM if his last name was Smith!

King's video comment that under the City's proposal whereby 1/3 of the costs would be paid by the city, 1/3 by the team and 1/3 by ticket surcharges could only be interpreted as being 100 % comes from the "our" revenues stunningly but eloquently captures the absolute arrogance of the Flames. The Flames have no independent revenues from which to contribute. All of "their" revenues come from "their" fans...... you know, the ones who actually buy tickets, ovepriced beer and hotdogs to see millionaires play.

You say the PFD is a Socialist Program!!! This is Capitalism in it's purist form. You don't have a Union or anyone else telling you who you can hire and fire. In Communism, the purist form of Socialism, people are told who they can hire and fire regardless of their qualifications. I don't like them hiring out of state but how would you feel if I walked into your business and said you can't employ your own son or friends because that is taking a Union job or someone else's job who lives on that block. Alaskans are fewer in numbers and do to the poor educational system it is much harder to get the training for the jobs. A Texan can go to school in Texas, get his degree at home then come here. If I want that same job I have to go to Washington State, leaving Alaska, pay housing and more to get the same education. And Unions actually hurt Alaskans in the job market. They protect the out of state workers and not the require to hire Alaskans.

Most definitely the "alternative" energy sources have issues when compared to fossil fuels (isn't it convenient that energy production is divided into "hydrocarbons" or "alternative"? It makes one think of a tattooed solar panel or wind turbine with an axis piercing). Also most definite is that smart apes are the ones that plan ahead and start moving in the right direction before they have to abandon most of their gear and run, because even though they were camping in a forest full of desiccated trees they didn't believe the apes who said that they should be careful with fire. The main stumbling block to most good things is the lack of global cooperations and agreement, sometimes it almost seems like people with lots of money and power deliberately block attempts at peace or agreements that place human dignity and ecological biodiversity above anyone's profits. Of course, that's just plain silly, almost superstitious, right? Right?

All it takes to be branded a rapist and expelled from college is for a female to change her mind after a sexual encounter. The atmosphere on campuses today is insane. The entire movement is driven by women and gender studies departments, who simultaneously wish to empower women and portray them as helpless, hapless victims in every possible circumstance. The only solution is to out the social scientists that propagate the fraudulent campus rape studies and create the climate of hysteria. They need to be publicly called to account, their quack sciences debunked, and driven from public life. Academia has tolerated the extreme, hysteric left for far too long. They must be purged from respectable academic institutions or this will only be the start of a multi-generational assault on due process and rule of law itself. I propose that we ship the postmodern feminist crusaders off to Saudi Arabia or Pakistan en masse, where they can advocate on behalf of women who truly are oppressed.

Who knows if Spacey is really guilty of said act or not. It doesn't really matter in the world of the left- the important strategy for Spacey is to find as many protected classes/victim strategies and ensconce himself in them all so that he may be perceived justified or "rehabilitated" asap. Coming out as gay is a pretty tepid start- better that he quickly combine it with a minority ancestor or two, feelings of gender confusion or being trapped in the wrong body, strong support for Planned Parenthood, hatred for Trump, sexism, racism, all the other liberal sub-isms, etc.. This is Harvey Weinstein's problem- he just hasn't added sufficient merit badges to create the facade of lurking integrity underneath the reprehensible character yet... For such "smart" men, Weinstein and Spacey had better quickly lay hold and understand that there are no real standards of good character in the progressive world- it only matters that there is form over substance... Even Kathy Griffen gets this.

So for 5 years city staff worked on what has turned out to be a total boondoggle. Tell us RG, how much taxpayer money was wasted in this 5 yr process? Does anyone know? How many man hours of work went down the drain?? You add this to the other boondoggle that the new City Hall has turned into, and one really has to begin to wonder about how effectively Eugene is being managed. The City Hall project needs to be rebooted and started over from scratch too. Perhaps Eugene needs a new City Manager. If no one is going to ever be held accountable when the city screws up badly, then the city is just going to continue to be dysfunctional forever. Is there no one in charge? Is the City Government out of control? Someone in Eugene's City Government needs to fall on their sword.

You don't say wrote, "Let me get this straight, …you think a newspaper is required to report to you all things all the time." . No, Yds, I don't think "a newspaper" is required to report events based on my will or what I deem important. But I do think that if "a newspaper" expects to maintain the trust of its readership, based on the quality and breadth of its reporting (content), it had better adhere to a few simple principles in order to maintain trust (and readership). That includes reporting on local issues of interest, because omitting coverage of certain local issues would indicate a bias, or worse, an attempt to manipulate public opinion. Newspapers have operated based on some well defined editorial conventions and standards that have been codified over the course of the few years the U.S. republic has managed to survive. For most of that time, those with money have tried to shape the news to their will. Have another drink and think about that simple "reality" for a bit.

"$500k house with $200k down ... Denver" Entering that specific info: * $500k house * $200k (40%) down * $300k mortgage * 30-year fixed * Denver, CO bankrate.com says 3.625% That would result in a mortgage payment of $1,368.15. The first year's interest is $10,782. According to this DP article from April 2017: http://www.denverpost.com/2017/04/06/colorado-property-tax-rates/ Denver's effective property tax rate is 0.56 percent. For our $500k house, that's $2,800 per year, or $233 per month. My homeowner's insurance rate is $149 per month. This is in Douglas County, for $684k coverage on the dwelling, $513k in personal property coverage, and a $6800 deductible. I'm presuming this $500k Denver house wouldn't be any more than my $1800 per year. So we're up to a total of $1751 per month. Not counting any tax savings due to $13,582 of deductible interest and property tax. So, yes, my $2200 per month was off a bit. I wasn't counting on 40% down.

What your advocating ( limited missile defense )makes sense, in theory, but the problem with that is one of scale. If you can shoot down "tens of incoming missiles", then the next step would be to ramp it to being able to shoot down hundreds ( or thousands ). That's what is destabilizing about missile defense, not the rogue missile launch protection capability, but that possessing that capability against all missile launches. Unless the US were to share the technology with Russia and China( highly unlikely), it would render their arsenals impotent( or nearly so) and coupled with a US refusal to disavow a 'first-strike" option put them at high risk of being destroyed without an effective retaliatory capability. Long before that happened, you'd likely have a final showdown and curtain call. That is what makes missile defense "offensive" and highly dangerous. Agree on the rest.

Donald Trump was never a Democrat, just as he was never, and is not now, a Republican. He has no ideology at all, no political principles, no vision -- except for his vision of himself as the guy in charge, and, of course, WINNING! Democrats by now have surely recognized that the most advantageous thing for their party is to let this flaming orange Hindenburg crash and burn and leave the Republicans to scramble, flaming, from the fireball. Two years from now, as the GOP civil war rages, the Dems will take back the House and Senate, and spend the next two years giving the Republicans a taste of their own medicine. Which is only fair, if not necessarily good for the country. That's if Steve Bannon doesn't have Trump assassinated by "radical Muslim extremists" so he can seize power at the point of a gun with the network of acolytes he will have built within the Homeland Security apparatus.

Although my eyes are blue and my skin is quite fair I am not a member of the white "race" because the white race is an imaginary construction. Like all Americans, I am a "mutt" having many "ethnicities." Gay pride, for example, exists because people who identify as glbtq have been shamed and denigrated as outsiders and not full members of society deserving protection and equality before the law. Their pride originates in their self-recognition as a class of people which has been formally discriminated against and who must choose to value themselves because society has told them they are less than full citizens. If white people are feeling devalued because they are poor, underpaid, out of work, etc. they can join with other groups in society experiencing the same problems but they are not being discriminated against on the basis of skin color but rather economic class. "White pride" is a cover for narratives of white victimization--a proxy for white supremacy.

Unfortunately, lovely Laura seems to have become just another Justin Trudeau bootlicker, as she doesn’t even offer a hint of skepticism about the truly dimwitted agreement by the Trudeau government to a visit by the lame-duck US VP. The charitable interpretation is that the Liberals are just trying to create positive publicity in the US for co-operation on border security and other laudable efforts. It seems more likely that this visit by a virulent critic of Trump will be seen by the incoming Trump administration as just another slight directed against the President-Elect by the Trudeau Liberals. After all, Trudeau and his henchtthingies disgraced themselves by their thinly veiled anti-Trump remarks during the presidential election campaign, when Canada’s self-interest demanded a strict neutrality between the presidential candidates. One of Trump’s famous quotes was: “When a person screws you, you screw them back fifteen times harder.”

Why is the headline banner reminiscent of a Mad magazine cover? Science cannot deliver an always better tomorrow because that would imply that science possesses and controls an extraordinary process of evolution. Evolution does not have a (particular) future and a (particular) purpose, but evolution rides a radically fluctuating energy flow utilizing accidents of uncertain future quality . But if science had such a magical ability, it would also require a spontaneously increasing flow of free energy and the also the ability to convert entropy into negative entropy, etc. This does not seem to agree with the experience of society. Environmental crisis is a perpetual deleterious effect of human imagination. The environment now is never good enough; therefore, it must be altered . And it must be altered again at ever increasing cost, decreasing efficiency, and environmental degradation. Science is jerking your chains, rubes. "What me worry?"

The Bank’s never had more than one measure of underlying inflation serving as its operational guide until the 2016 renewal agreement. Moving to three new core measures, none of which exclude the mortgage interest component, with the 2016 renewal agreement, was an incredibly poor decision. (Mortgage interest costs decreased by 0.4% over 12 months in January as opposed to 0.3% in December.) Even so, one of the new measures, CPI-median, was at 1.9%, just below the target rate. These dysfunctional measures seem to have been brought in just to protect the Bank’s low-interest-rate policies if there was a spike in inflation such as we are now seeing.
