J.Bob, you are showing more and more you don't understand the science. If the radiation does not leave the atmosphere, the earth warms. Less leaves than comes in, the earth is out of balance. That is warming and the only place that the earth can maintain its balance. leaving the ocean is not cooling the earth, if it does not leave through the top of the atmosphere.

And note - carefully - the massive coverage the DP is giving the latest and new data on the US's uranium sale to Russia, now backed up as to Bill and Hill's role therein, by sources (see the usual DP's "some say", I know, I know) and you'll see what the DP editorial staff think what is worth screaming front-page, often editorial-type coverage...and what is NOT.

Had Conservative leader Scheer had the same problem with a kayak, is their any doubt the headline would have been "Scheer Can't Kayak!"

Great. Air Canada monetized its loyalty program, and is now starting another one? However, given how most points earned on Aeroplan are from purchases and not flights, AC may want a program that actually encourages people to pay money to fly. Currently, I only fly AC on points, since I have accumulated so many. I'll have to wait to see how Aeroplan responds to the AC announcement.

Massive socialism works well within communistic regimes . Socialism provides opportunity to individuals within the masses to advance themselves in their shift towards capitalism. As such the capitalism movement within acts as a catalyst for movement towards democracy. Minor socialism within democracy is good provided those receiving it use it as a catalyst to improve themselves and their lot in life. Socialism which is perceived as an long term gift with no obligation to improve facilitates laziness/ dependence ....it is the drug of complacency. A drugged democracy ultimately erodes to communism . Capitalism funds socialism $ wise and socialism hopefully generates capitalists thereby increasing the consumers of materials. Well balanced, they are synergistic... unbalanced (as they are in Canada) causes the capitalists to withdraw their funding.

News tended to protect athletes more during the years you mention. That doesn't mean it happened as much as more recently, but it certainly was not nonexistent as you claim. But even if you are completely correct, that does not prove Nike is the cause of it all or even any of it. Individuals are responsible for their own behavior. Only liberals think that is not the case. I blame them, since they have instituted liberal policies on campus which discourage individual responsibility. Note: The exact wording above was deemed "below the civility threshold" and was rejected by Civil Comments. There is nothing uncivil about it. Liberal readers did not like its content and voted it down in order to censor it. This is what liberals do, both here and on campus. Let's see if they do it again.

Kiszla and his fascination with trying to kill the Nugs over this signing is comical. This is a great move for the Nuggets and a great contract to not give him 4 years at the full max AND get a team option for the third year. His points about Gallo are ridiculous, essentially they traded Gallo for Millsap and a draft pick which all 30 NBA teams do 100 times out of 100 and stayed under the tax to do it (which is WHY they only wanted a pick for Gallo). Read any article from a national writer who covers the NBA exclusively and actually understands basketball and they are all praising this signing. Finally, if he can't understand the difference between the Millsap contract/Nuggets situation and the Durant contract with Golden State, then there's no point in ever reading his nonsense again.

Yes, "peer review is a bad way to monitor the comment sections[,] Alaska Dispatch." Why I never reject any comments I'm supposed to "review." Don't read them...just check the boxes. Yes, I see where "The hate posts against the church are being put up on this comment section..." I'm sure you've included my previous comment in that category. However, I see no evidence that "the comment[s] taking up for the churches are being removed…" Your comment, Ms. Brown, and the comments of others making the complaint that "conservative" comments are being deleted or something...are actually posted rather routinely. I suspect that any comments "peer-reviewed" as "uncivil" are probably (I'm guessing here) reviewed by the rather chirpy representative from "Civil" for a final determination. My take is that Alaska Dispatch does not censor these online comments for content. I wouldn't like that. More "liberal" comments are being made. Or maybe the "conservative" comments are more "uncivil." I don't know.

I’m not all that familiar with Sinclair and the stations they own and run. Politico had a piece recently that said Sinclair would require their stations to regularly use a certain commentator, which is understandable. It helps brand the stations under a common identity. I think Sharyl Attkisson, who I remember from one of the big networks, hosts a Sunday “Meet the Press” type show. It makes sense for their stations to use her work as opposed to paying for someone else. It’s business.

It's not quite as simple as the kids just keeping the company and taking dividends until the money is gone. Without any planning that scenario results in double, and sometimes triple, tax. Too hard to explain here but the government essentially gets all the inheritance. However there are strategies that can be implemented to fix that problem and leave just the first tax you refer to. The governments proposals kill that planning even for people who died before July 18 and for whom the CRA had already given written approval. This is the kind of stuff Morneau and Trudeau, and the public they are misleading, don't understand. And they won't accept help.

Portraying liberals as the antihesis of the Bible and Christianity is, in truth, just the opposite. The liberals actually act on and believe in the basic premises of the religion of peace, human rights, civil rights, inclusion, diversity, human good, et. al. Only the pseudo-christians of the fundamentalist ilk prefer war, fear, dictatorship, and every other evil plaguing humans and the entire planet. The Jews created the One God religion of which Jesus belonged until he, supposedly, rebelled against the ruling classes. The letter writer uses the typical blame mantra and scurrilous vocabular to attempt to denigrate those committed to the betterment of humans and all of the planet. A completely warped view of the world aided and abetted by the Republican propaganda machines of the Billionaire Barons completely opposed to anything basically humane and moral. A sad testament to a wasted life.

You can believe as you wish, Dave. You have a closed mind and a liberal one, I expect. So you think forcing Christian businesses in this country to violate their consciences is OK as long as the ones expecting them to cave in to their wishes are given their due? Due to homosexuals in Oregon, the Kleins had to finally close their bakery for good. These people are deliberately picking on Christians that they know will not do as they ask so they can sue them; it is nothing about hurt feelings. And how about the Christians in the mid east? You think they are treated well? Well, they are not. If you convert to Christianity, you can expect a very short life there. Thanks to Obama and his Muslim agenda, we have more Muslims here now than ever, and they are not our friends. They want to impose Sharia law here, which fortunately has been struck down. They blow up our buildings and kill our people. Finally, you don't know what I read, but I'll bet it's a lot broader than you.

Well I must say that is not illuminating, especially considering there was no "landslide", unless maybe you were talking about the one that buried Sanders. Even that is debatable as a landslide, since the final popular vote count was Hillary55% Sanders 41%. Sanders did well for a candidate without broad appeal. If there was any manipulation, it was by the popular media which ignored Sanders and even Clinton, in favor of their focus on the drama of the Trump campaign. As far as actual voter fraud, there was none. That is most likely what Bev Harris meant, that, in fact, you can't steal a landslide. But there was no landslide. Your comment makes no sense.

It’s easy to get caught up in the deeply flawed character of Donald Trump. We also need to recognize the policy catastrophe of this presidency. This past week Trump ordered an end to the Obama-era executive action that shielded around 800,000 young undocumented immigrants – often called Dreamers – from deportation under what’s been known as the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, or DACA. Look at other of Trump’s recent policy decisions and you see the same arbitrary and unnecessary cruelty. What’s the point of banning transgender people from military service? Of siding in court with a businessman who doesn’t want to sell his services to gay couples? Of weakening the standard for responding to sexual violence in universities? Of banning Syrian refugees and reducing by half the number of refugees admitted to the United States? There is no point, in terms of policy. None of these decisions makes America safer or economically stronger or fairer.
