It's right on schedule? At this rate it'll take an eternity......assuming we don't go bankrupt first.
4
You do realize where we were when your hero W left office? And that recessions are distinctly grouped by cause, i.e. financial services, dot.com bubbles, etc.? For a catastrophic financial and banking services collapse not seen since the Great Depression, this recovery is right on schedule. One hardly can blame this President for the fact that the modern economy's job production has been largely in lower income jobs. This is a reflection of job outsourcing, robotization, and the destruction (thanks Ronnie!) of our labor unions. You may or may not care to know that the world economy also was in jeopardy because of W's mismanagement. Only Germany, England, and Ireland have had stronger recoveries than ours---- and all of them have far stronger unions and safety nets. Then again, they don't have fools like McConnell and Ryan "leading" the opposition.

You r wrong about mental illness not being caused by how we are raised. Some mental illness is caused by brain issues such as the fellow n this story. Childhood trauma is a big source of mental illness. I know.
4
You are so very incorrect that I had to actually ask myself if you were serious. Mental illness has nothing to do with birth or how you were raised. Seriously? That is like saying cancer is the result of how you were raised. Mental illness is a disease, like any other. A mentally ill person is not helping their situation if they abusing alcohol or drugs just as a person who has cancer is not helping themselves if they do the same thing. Please....the next time you think of commenting, think again.

I am a staunch believer in the free exchange of ideas. Please explain why you call me "PC". You also have not explained how a bar would not "not allow any of them entry" regarding armed people intending to murder. Does that work when being mugged? "Excuse me, I'm going to profile you since you are a minority... go away!" Would pre-screening help anything other than casing the place? I know, I know, you just wanted to "axe" a hypothetical question... but it looks like you think profiling would really accomplish something so I'm going to keep asking how it would do that. I agree the Israeli airport methods are effective by the way, but can't see how it could be applied in this case.
10
Three or four young male arabs with one or two concealed handguns each could very easily get into a gay bar by smiling and talking with a lisp. A smart gay bar would profile young arab males and not allow any of them entry. This guy had already visited this gay bar numerous times to case the joint. He shouldn't have been allowed entry. Gay bars will probably go to pre-screened membership only clubs and then they'll get sued by PC liberals like yourself for discrimination.

Alaskans never fought for rules to let them drill & profit, why? Alaskans under the last Governor allowed the state to price them out of the oil business with recent 1,000% to over 8,000% increases in lease sale rental terms, why let the DNR DOG price Alaskans out? The new DNR DOG will fix this, I hope! Not one Alaskan has ever drilled and sold oil for a profit, why? The new Governor and the DNR DOG will fix this I hope! Until Alaskans see that the oil and gas agencies and their interpretation of the oil and gas rules kept Alaskans and smaller competition out and the big three oil monopolies in control, nothing will improve! Please ask the Governor and the oil and gas Agencies for support! I think the new DNR DOG and Governor will make things better now!
4
"Some have said SB 128 takes money out of the pockets of hardworking Alaskans to be used to pay tax credits to oil and gas companies. That is a convenient talking point, and would be powerful if it were accurate." It IS accurate. A $1 billion unsustainable tax subsidy for big oil, and a $1 billion reduction in Permanent Fund dividends for ordinary Alaskans. It's called arithmetic. Full disclosure: I am a ConocoPhillips shareholder. p.s. If this legislation is so important and "historic," I'm sure that Sen. McGuire would have stuck around and used her influence to shepherd it through the House- instead of hightailing it to Germany for a vacation while the Legislature is in session.

I grew up in Oregon when the previous generations still believed in funding schools and colleges so the next generations could become more educated than the last. If Oregonians would actually step up and fund Public education at the levels prior to Measure 5 we would attract and retain more highly educated individuals in education from K-12 and into Higher Educations. Unfortunately, Oregon has fallen to 46th for High School graduation in our nation due to reduced school funding; Oregon once had some of the top schools in the nation because we believed in funding education separately from the General Fund. Once we start funding education to the levels where we can retain great teachers in Math, Sciences, Language Arts, Literature, Vocational Arts, Genera Arts, etc., we will begin the climb back to the top in education nationally. Look around the world and see the many countries surpassing the US in education, it's because they know the value of funding education.
4
Comparisons are going to be made between schools and States no matter what. The Districts, and more particularly their teachers, do not want valid, measureable testing. The 'real world' tests will never go away, however. If a 'graduate' has to take remedial math or English just to be able to attend a community college, the school s/he came from failed. If a 'graduate' can't qualify on a military entrance test, the school s/he came from failed. If a 'graduate' can't complete a simple resume' to get a job, the school s/he came from failed. That the failures were exacerbated due to lousy parenting or no parenting is almost a given. Those who don't even graduate (an increasing number in Oregon despite all the 'plans' and 'studies' and 'goals' and 'projections') are just ensuring we have a permanent underclass to vie for fewer and fewer unskilled jobs or become bums requiring community support.

That's a theory. I think a forensic examination of the actual weapon would be more useful to determine if it had been modified to be more fully automatic. The recent unanimous Supreme Court rulings regarding the 2nd Amendment are the relevant test of whether a civilian is entitled to defend himself and with what weapon(s). One does not have to be a 'Veteran' and 'served' for one's opinion to be permitted. Every citizen of the United States is entitled to 'state what they feel', and even the non-citizens are protected by our US Constitution. Those rights were paid for by millions of veterans before you or I served and were not 'given' to those who did not serve; they are their birthright as well as ours and merely protected by those of us who spent our time in the military. In my case, slightly over 20 years.
5
For as many that were killed and not able to stop, tells me this was not a single shot weapon, it was modified to fire multiple rounds. I will end with this, being a Veteran, having seen, having to accept this mass killing, I will never accept that the AR-15 is a weapon that civilians need to have, the 2nd does not state to kill like the killing we are seeing and will continue to see. To justify, to come up with excuses, does not hold with me, and if I wish to add to this I will state this, I have the right to state what I feel, I served, and earned those rights, for all others who did not, the rights were given to them, not earned, there is a difference, and this individual was sick when little kids were gunned down and still stick with all the other killings, enough is enough.

These ratings agencies depend on crooks who are protected by public officials like Gov. Walker. Why hasn't Walker removed Marc Pfeffer from the AK Municipal Bond Bank Authority after emails between Rep. Hawker and Pfeffer that relate to the Anchorage LIO clearly showed that Pfeffer does not have the integrity to be in charge of our public finances? As chair of the AMBBA, Deven Mitchell carries out what Pfeffer and his gang @ the AMBBA cook up. 'Deven Mitchell, the state's debt manager...who communicates with the ratings agencies before bond sales, said their analysts realize Alaska is spending its readily accessible savings at unsustainable levels.' http://www.adn.com/alaska-news/article/fitch-warns-alaska-potential-credit-downgrade-if-fiscal-ship-not-righted/2016/02/29/ Pfeffer's questionable collaboration with Hawker to take care of his own interests before the public interests was a red flag to all and he should have been ousted off the board. This all stinks to high heaven.

To judge the "efficiency" of trawling you need to figure the cost of all the bycatch species killed and discarded and what they would have been worth had they survived. Trawlers fish everywhere not just soft bottom. Rockhopper nets are nothing new as I suspect you know. Yes all gear types have bycatch but none to the extent trawling does. In the last couple weeks here in Kodiak, trawl deckhands have told of a massive trawl of dead, ping pong paddle sized halibut, shoveled over dead. Another deckhand told of their net getting stuck in the stern ramp notch as it was full of tanner crab which the crew had to stomp to get the net back overboard to dump the unwanted crab. Neither of these example happened when either boat had an observer aboard.
5
Shrimping in asia maybe. Shrimping in the U.S. has gotten super clean, especially on the west coast in the last few years. 9 non-target species do not die for every two shrimp harvested in U.S. Bottom trawling is mainly conducted on soft bottom,as rocky bottom snags nets, and mostly stirs up silt,mud,sand. Some studies have found that stirring up stagnant ocean bottom are very much conducive to promoting a healthy ocean eco-system as it puts otherwise lost nutrients back into the food chain. Pots on the other hand can fished on any bottom and have been shown to do significant damage to fish habitat especially coral beds. Pot fishing could be beneficial to the trawl fleet as it can DECREASES overhead but is not lawfully permitted. I don't speak or pretend to know what most Alaska readers know but as a life long longliner i do know that the IPHC has mismanaged the halibuts stocks. Ive heard trawling called a lot of things but not tell now have I ever heard/read it called inefficient.

The 'one and the same' assertion came from Steven Hunnicutt, 22 hours ago, not the original OP. I was responding to his inaccurate information. You correctly identified the fact that an unmodified AR-15 is not a 'machine gun'.

"Motley", I think we are on the same page(?) I am completely familiar with all of the variants and different terms and nomenclature. Unfortunately, to detail and elucidate in the degree in which you have, leads to massive Editing when submitting to the paper. Please reread my OP.

The House Minority refused to use the Earnings Reserve Account this session and the last session to fund the govt. It would have taken a simple majority. The Musk Ox caucus, led by Rep Seaton, allied with the Democrats to defeat that vote. Thanks Rep Seaton and Democrats. Now the governor can veto any line item he wants in the budget, including the entire PFD amount and the oil & tax credits. Go for it, Governor Walker.
6
The dividend is paid from the Earnings Reserve Account, generated by the fund itself. The legislature has the authority to use that account to pay for government. Currently they don't do anything with that, other than pay dividends. What they ARE doing, is spending down another account, the Constitutional Budget Reserve account. It's being spent down quickly. And once the CBR is gone... there's no alternative but to spend from the PF Earnings Reserve, instead of paying dividends with it. This is partly because of broad state spending....but also because the legislature has surrendered revenue from production of OUR oil, to THEIR owners in the oil industry. The Republican majority is essentially crooked and bought off. Hope that helps.

I liked your comment because you recognize that Mr. Halford is right. When we all refer to SB 21, we are not paying attention to the fact that it no longer exists. The content is now law. Therefore, the new bills are to modify that law. I don't fully agree with that either.

My daughter is a lawyer down there. All she does is fight for abused kids, women and sometimes dads. She gets paid peanuts since it's all done for free. She once lost her apartment and even her car but she's never lost a case. She shows up with big blue eyes, little blond pigtails and a smile. The opposition takes one look, leans back and grins at their client. 'Made in the shade" they think. Then she stands up, puts on her glasses and comes out with guns blazing and ready to fight to the bitter end. They go down like trees, the judges love her! Sometimes she has 50 cases all lined up. She says there's more to life than just money, her pay is seeing the looks in the eyes of her clients when they win. But she has seen some bad, bad stuff done to kids. I hope this guy comes up against a lawyer like her.

There are thousands of people in Lane County who have no interest in volunteering or otherwise offering their services to the citizens because of comments like these. Why would any sane person who earns $250,000 a year take a government job that pays $80,000 a year and lose $170,000 a year while being abused for serving? There are many politicians who have taken their talents elsewhere. Saving that money was not part of their job. You should check the county manual to find out what their job consists of.

Give me just one example of an individual with an assault weapon that protected his family with it. Give me just one example - please! Mass carnage repeatedly in the hands of private citizens is all we get. Leave these weapons in the hands of our military. Oh, and you might just need our government (military) if a nuclear bomb is headed your way. A lot of good your assault rifle will do you then!

H.L. Mencken famously said "no one ever went broke underestimating the taste of the American public." Apparently there's money to be made running a bar with nude dancing. Additionally, the "dancers" also make a substantial income from their work. Is is tacky? Of course it is.....really tacky. Is nude dancing just a step above prostitution? IMO, the answer is yes. Would a city be better off without such establishments? Again, IMO, the answer is yes. However, all that is somewhat irrelevant. Nude dancing/stripping has been held to be a Constitutionally protected activity. If the establishment meets all zoning regulations, gets OLCC approval and follows applicable health, safety standards, fire codes, etc, etc. they're in "business." The success of the business is up to the people of Springfield and the surrounding region. Don't like it? Don't go. Seems pretty easy to me.

I think activists dug through his posts thinking "this condo guy is an asshole racist gentrifier and I'm gonna find evidence of him being a dick so I can disseminate it and ruin him" and have framed it as racist because of Tyler's position on other issues. Like that Hollywood thing: He says he has been conditioned to fear certain types of cars by movies. And then he says that nothing happened, and he was was never in danger. The moral of the story isn't that the neighborhood was a bad place for him to be, it's that he was irrationally fearful based on images he'd been exposed to in media and concluded that it was wrong. That's what I got, anyway. I am from a diverse city but I'm no authority on race or crime. I understand that I have a privileged perspective. I also agree that his five year old blog post could be read differently than I'm reading it and that it's tonedeaf. But the message I got was the exact opposite of racism.
80
Just dig that hole deeper and deeper. Using terms like 'not a good look' and 'tone-deaf' illustrate that you know the content is offensive, reductive, and simplistic to the point where it paints all members of a racial group as less than and uncivilized (with a reference to movies to boot), but are unwilling to call it racist, because you know the writer. It seems that because you are from Ohio (I can search FB too!), a place more ethnically diverse in population, you are somehow more of an authority on the realities of race (and crime) and that us safe, lily-white OR residents cannot understand. Well, (and this is not the first or last time I've been lectured by a white male about why something is not racist and I need to get over it) you are wrong, sir.

You need to learn to read - or perhaps, just read something other than conservative blogs. The quote was "Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you've got a business. you didn't build that. Somebody else made that happen." This is clearly in reference to the roads, not the business. Another fragment if the same speech is: "The point is, is that when we succeed, we succeed because of our individual initiative, but also because we do things together." Do you find anything to object to there, Boozer?

Yes Wave, the best move would be to raise the taxes on an industry that is laying off employees and contractors left, right and center do to low prices for their product. (sarcasm) You really should look into SB-21 vs. ACES, we are collecting more taxes from oil companies now than we would have under ACES.

The Republican majority is continue to posture and kick the fiscal can down the road. Soooooo, if they're not going to touch the PFD until AFTER the November elections, what's their plan for paying off the $4 billion deficit? Where's the plan? I know our income tax-free ride is over. The least Alaskans can do is pay a portion of the federal taxes that we're already paying out of our federal income tax. What's the big deal of doing at least that much? But the bigger angst that sticks in my craw is Big Oil's billion-dollar tax loophole that remains. That billion-dollar tax loophole is coming out of our PFD account; where else is that billion-dollar tax giveaway coming from?

Btw you probably have a better chance with strychnine than arsenic but I am merely indulging your hyperbolic hysteria. If you're chilled, put on a thick coat and disabuse yourself of your infantile illusions about the American political system. You don't "care more about" the dangers women face or you'd have stated that you're voting for Clinton since she clearly has the means to make major improvements as regards women's healthcare access and rights via Supreme court nominations and executive orders. I call you out as disingenuous because above you state "Who said anything about not voting? " and yet say you won't vote for Clinton. So you must be voting for an unviable candidate which makes you like the Green voters in 2000 who helped elect Bush. You've put yourself in a dilemma by trying to convince yourself that Clinton is just as bad as Trump although you know this proposition to be false. Perhaps you're having an instinctive, mechanical reaction to voting for a powerful woman?

I can't speak for the writer, but I would say that there are perverts and domestic violence offenders everywhere, across all demographics and regions.

I think there is more to it than that. I was extremely disappointed in Charles K when he first called Trump "a clown", and lost a lot of respect for his views. Krauthammer certainly overcame a lot to become the man he is, and I feel he is a bit miffed at how this sometimes uncouth contender burst onto the world stage without going through all of the standard "hoop jumping". Yes, Krauthammer is a right wing Republican but I see him now as more of a Globalist- which many "RINOs" and Democrats REALLY are...
10
Jeb and Ben are a footnote in history; Chuck is a right wing Republican. Trump keeps making noises about requiring NATO to pay its fair share for its defense and raising questions about whether we need to be in the Middle East. That goes against Chuck's history on both places.

No, Lee, I am not a Democrat. But should a Democrat be within the stripe of JFK, I would vote for them, though the current Democrat Party would not even allow him within the party, as he would have been too far right, according to them... You know, the whole "Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country" thing..... That, and the tax issues and what not. I would imagine that within today's Democrat party JFK would be considered a Right-Wing nut case.

I always thought the problem was the out of state 'specialist' that come in for tailor-made jobs at the behest of legislators or contributors, not the rank and file. But what does it mean that the government is the largest employer here? And that the largest businesses up here need so much money from the government to do business? The old money was in real estate.
4
Yes, it is easy to demonize state employees since we are under a union (whether we want to be or not). The bottom line is we are still Alaskans (I was born in Alaska and have lived here all my life), we contribute to the economy, we run this huge state and we make less than public sector employees at comparable jobs. There are many state employees who are below the poverty line! Most people don't have a clue about that. We are an easy scapegoat. I am sick of it.

You offer a statement by Reagan, then say that one portion of the statement, the part I reference, that defines what he is speaking about is "parsing". He was speaking about an AK-47 machine gun. A fully automatic firearm. As far as your "parsing of the 2nd amendment", "well regulated militia", it has already been parsed, "The right of "the people" to keep and bear arms will not be infringed". That means the people of America, all of the people.

Are you kidding me ? What's next---maybe the Loussac should pass out pillows and blankets to those entering who are clearly not there for the traditional use of the library . It's bad enough that Beans and Francis enable the street homeless population to thrive in Anchorage---now the Loussac will enable them as well. The best way to get real action to solve this problem is to direct every street person entering the Loussac down to the assembly chambers . Put them all in there . After they trash that place , trust me , the assembly will get off their liberal rear ends and come up with a real solution. We keep doing the same cozy feel good enabling of the street homeless and wonder why nothing improves , and the street death numbers continue to rise . Too many people donate money to the enablers so that they can feel good about themselves , not realizing or caring that they are part of the problem--not the solution . It's past time for tough love. Stop the enabling !

The Washington Post is on its own jihad against Trump. Of course it's a complete waste of time and space. Trump and Clinton are the candidates.

Every kid, whether home-schooled or attending a public or private school should be required to pass a state-wide test every year for promotion to the next grade. You are saying home-schooled kids aren't up to snuff. Some probably are not. An annual test would ensure they were. Failing to pass the test should mandate summer school or other remediation. But the same goes for kids in classrooms. Many of them are not up to snuff either, but they are now passed on to the next grade anyway - multiplying their failures over the years. An annual test would ensure they all were doing well. Failing the annual test should also mandate summer school for these students as well. Some teachers, some parents and many kids need something to focus their attention on student learning. Mandatory summer school for failing kids would focus the teachers, the parents and the the kids in a big way.

TP2: Over my years as a teacher/counselor and School Board member I interacted with quite a few "homeschoolers"....students and parents. Some simply felt they could better prepare their children for their acacemic futures by homeschooling. However, for the vast majority, your observation re: "protecting" their children is very accurate. Most were members of very conservative, usually fundamentalist, churches and viewed the public schools as "hotbeds" of corruption and temptation. They felt they needed to protect their children from such evil. Frequently, at some point, they realized "homeschooling" wasn't all they had expected and enrolled their kids in the public schools. Almost without exception these students had major academic deficits and required extensive remedial instruction. Simply put....for some families, homeschooling works great....for most, it doesn't. Most "anti-public school" posts address the "evils of indoctrination"....could you cite a few examples?

Not at all. I'd shut down Beans and Brother Frances' arrest any and all people who give to panhandlers with a mandatory jail sentence AND community service plus dictate that law enforcement use more force in rousting the homeless out of parks and off private property. Then and only then will this problem go away. I've been over 5000 miles from home and picking up change off the floorboard wondering where my next meal was coming from and nobody helped me.

Doughty Do you have any empathy? You seem to be short on integrity but rich in anger. For an investment of a small amount of $, the City might diminish the problem, not solve it, but its a good test. Would you have the homeless subsist on creek water and Pilot Bread?

Perhaps we could fund it with the money we're currently using to reward stupid behavior and choices. Defund the Red Nose Inn for starters. Paying people to clean up their own illegal mess is stupid, believing homeless drunks want the job is epically stupid.

It would cost us taxpayers far too much in APD time, DOC time, time to process, costs of court process. Try to think around the larger macro implications of your "suggestion". I'd rather our cops were busting drunk drivers and vehicle theft. They'd be let out after a few hours likely and that money would be all eaten up in one day.

On what basis? He broke no laws per the FBI's investigation. On what other basis other than a criminal conviction or adjudication of mental incompetence following due process rules would you deprive an innocent American citizen of a fundamental right? Convenience of the government is not a valid argument. If the government can't -prove- that a person is guilty of a crime (or an imminent risk thereof per extant legal rules) they should not be depriving them of their rights. I don't understand how so many people are willing to let the basis of our entire system of government, individual liberty, be thrown in the trash because they are scared and don't like the particular issue at hand.

Remember the previous governor? Because of that, we got what we got. He just needs to repeal SB 21, cut his gas pipeline plans, cut other pie in the sky mega projects, cut the legislature's excessive budget, and push for a value-added economic diversification plan that will get us off of a single source of our state operation's budget. Then use the CBR to get us through this year. Next year, hopefully with the help of new legislators who will place Alaska and Alaskan's interests first, finish the job of creating an oil and gas credit system that rewards those who find new oil and punishes those who are warehousing oil on the North Slope.

Someone needs to step forward and start a Walker recall petition . The sole reason Walker wants to blow more money on another special session is so that he can get his hands on more money for the gas line. He has been obsessed with the gas line for years . Months ago he blew 65 million on the gas line and put us on the hook for billions in construction costs . Because of this clouded insane judgement he should be recalled . Very few wanted him to be governor anyways , and now we can see why.

I don't know if you can count five or six, but in any case a majority want the council to take up the Brown/Clark "South Willamette Street Initiative" and move ahead with something along those lines, i.e., a limited scope refinement plan with a community-based planning team guiding the public involvement process. -- Paul

Paul. I'm curious about what six of the participants claiming they "don't want a forum" means. This could go either of two ways: no forum is held, and the city begins planning on its own again, or no forum is held and the whole idea is dropped. Personally I was hoping for a forum with true community participation: an open ended Q&A session where the mayor and council actually engage with people, rather than one of these futile "pack the house" testimony sessions. The October date is also suspicious: it gives the planners time to prepare, and citizens time to forget.

So what is the answer, GC? In a vast, pluralistic, diverse society such as our own, surely there has to be *some* set of fundamental values, shared by all - else it's a bit hard to see how we're collectively going to achieve that "Unum" out of the "pluribus", eh? And wouldn't these shared values necessarily have to be taught (and tested for), somewhere, somehow?
4
There's nothing wrong with "testing" per se. It's a method of determining if individuals have mastered specific curricula. In various forms it's employed by, I believe, all teachers. The problems arise when we start using state-wide or national "standardized" tests. Such test presume there is a "standard" curriculum for each tested set of skills or knowledge. This forces school districts and teachers to build their curricula to those tests or face the consequences of students performing poorly on them. Those consequences are often draconian......loss of financial support and, in some cases, the loss of one's job. More and more districts and more and more States are questioning and rejecting the concept of such a "national" Core Curriculum and the accompanying loss of local control. As both a former teacher and a former School Board member, I share the concern over the impact of such a rigid system of control Accountability is one thing.. control is quite another...

Not all concealed carriers are trained well enough to be able to first, discern what exactly is happening, then shoot only the "bad guys", and finally when the cops do arrive, take the necessary steps to keep themselves from being shot by the cops...but some are. In fact, there is a growing community of concealed carriers who are trained that when the bullets start flying try to escape. If that's not possible find cover. If cover is not available, concealment should be sought. These would be the actions of armed persons who know it is not their responsibility to protect the general public and that should they actually fire a defensive shot, hit or miss, their lives will be forever altered most likely for the worse.

According to CNN.com, Wikipedia, and other internet sources, an armed Orlando PD officer was working security at Pulse and engaged in gun fire with Omar Mateen at the onset of the event. Not sure where your comment " Apparently, no one at Pulse nightclub in Orlando, FL was carrying a weapon " came from. Concealed carry by citizens is not the solution to active shooter events. On June 8th, 2014 in Las Vegas , Jerad and Amanda Miller shot and killed 2 cops while they sat eating pizza, then they entered the nearby Walmart , opened fire, and announced a revolution. Joseph Wilcox, a customer near the checkout counter, decided to confront Jerad and headed for the entrance while reaching for his concealed weapon, and was shot point blank in the chest by Amanda and killed instantly . The other issue is when law enforcement arrives on scene, a citizen with a concealed weapon who draws it and fires it makes it difficult to cops to figure out in split seconds who the bad guy is.

Not at all.

Unless someone else bought it separately, doesn't the airspace above a property belong to the property owner? What about the 'peeping tom' laws that allow police to arrest someone infringing on a homeowner's privacy by spying? If the woman has talked with her neighbor, chances are he is simply engaging in defiant behavior, to prove he can so as he pleases.

Damm liberals, lol. I'm usually an opponent of police force, especially since we are starting to see that tasers are much more deadly than intended and should actually be used much more sparingly than simply to enforce compliance. But, this sure seems appropriate. If he couldn't answer a few questions and whipped out bear spear he definitely had it coming. I'll give kudo's to the PD for not outright shooting him.

We might have no evidence for the God of Moses (a.k.a "Adonai", "Allah" or simply "God" to the Christians), but just because we don't doesn't mean they don't exist. Similarly, we may have believed the existence of yet-to-be-discovered elements, but we didn't have evidence of its existence until these elements found its way into the periodic table. That's why we got to study these objectively. Now, about previous discussions, it's true that the Bible's books aren't written in what should be Jesus Christ's time BUT the Bible is not "one source". The Bible are many books in one, with different writers writing in different times, so we need to validate these now: somehow. And again, we wouldn't know of the existence of some elements now if not for someone who believed and sought it.
4
Not so much. There is little or no archaeological evidence and no direct evidence of Jesus of Anywhere existing. Yes, there are lots of texts that mention him, but none from when he was alive nor for many years afterwards. That means any reference to him was from people who heard about him from someone else, who heard from someone else, etc. Kind of like, "I know a guy who's younger sister dated a man who once saw a person that claimed to have seen this other guy walk on water, so I'm going to write about it".

Mine own question is thus... Who determines whom is upon said list? And what determines whom is given unto said list? Whom determines what is a terrorist, and what is not a terrorist? Unto mine own self, the answer is easy enough, but once lawyers and politicians get their own hands upon it, said list can include almost anything. Could an individual that ever disagreed vehemently within the powers that be, could that be cause to put them on said list? Could an individual that wishes both parties be disbanded and should start over again be put upon said list? Who, exactly, determines whom is upon said lists, and what is the criteria that would make such a list? Will an individual be notified that they are upon said list, and allowed due process so as to prove that they should not be upon said list, WITHOUT weapons confiscated, or the ability to purchase weapons be taken away simply because they are upon said list? I do not trust our Government. So am I upon the list, now?

Hi Bill. Appreciate you use your name here. If I've got it right, you own the F/V Belmont Rose? We have more in common than difference, then. My brother owned a commercial tender based in Homer for years, worked Bristol Bay and Cook Inlet salmon and PW Sound herring openings. Tough way to make a living regardless the regulatory regime! There are real complexities fishing in multi-territorial waters like the EU that makes it quite a bit tougher to make the case about 'national' stocks of fish given movement. But I will grant you, the CFP needs work, no doubt about it. I'm not the fisheries guy in my family but I did find out coming back to this side of the world that my paternal grandmother's family was Danish (Arfsten) and some of the family whaled in Greenland waters (a captain and a master in the ancestry!). They lived on the the island called Før off the Jutland peninsula. Anyway, don't have a fight with you on this. The EU can do better. I'll read up.

Often you can look at the huge, fancy buildings in a city and figure out who's got the "big bucks". Once it was the churches, once it was the banks, and today it's the insurance companies. This story is just further evidence that a health care system with insurance companies at the center will work out extremely well......for the insurance companies. For the rest of us? Not so great. For several years we had Trilllium Medicare Advantage. At one time it was a great system for us. However, several years ago the premiums started going up very rapidly and the coverage started going down just as rapidly. We changed to HealthNet and we're quite pleased. I'm sure the shareholders who "cashed in" are very, very happy with their capital gains. I'm guessing individuals whose high premiums helped build-up that "cash reserve" aren't quite as ecstatic,

If it was better written you would not have seen it. The RG selects which letters to print and post based on the the topic, then how the writer articulated their opinion.

The whole thing reads: "Nationally, Oregon ranks highest in the categories of health and family/community, which includes factors such as the percentage of heads of households without a high school degree and percentage of teen births. But even in these two categories, Oregon is only in the middle of the pack nationally." I believe the author was referring to "percentage of heads of households without a high school degree and percentage of teen births.". Could have been better written for sure.

It's not prudent to still spend 3/4 of the money and end up with a system that's completely incapable of fulfilling its main purpose. This whole thing is highlighting the utter folly of building the system from the outside in, rather than the inside out, which should have been obvious from the beginning: if you run out of money halfway through, a rail line from downtown to Aiea is still very useful. If it goes from Kapolei to Aiea, it's completely worthless.

Fishing Fun This "vigilante" was fortunate he was not pursuing a real criminal who was also armed. A shoot out could have easily occurred and innocent people could have been killed. Your so called judge, jury, and executioner "responsible citizen" vigilante would be in jail in any other jurisdiction. The crooked hillbilly thinking in the Mat Su incorporated area is the only thing keeping your vigilante out of jail. Your vigilante may still end up in jail or a lawsuit as the suspect has rights and has not been convicted of anything as of yet) By the way, I live at the end of the road at the end of the grid. One would think twice before pursuing anyone where I live. It is you hillbillies who live in a incorporated area that think you can endanger innocents in the name of vigilantism that think they can do no wrong. Larson is fortunate this incident worked out the way it did while Larson was acting as a vigilante.

Which is why Trump does well with simple declarations. He isn't talking to panel of judges, he's talking to angry/fearful people. A good salesman recognizes that emotional appeal goes a long way in selling a product/person. ' Yes mam' this pigs ear will make you a fine purse. what with you being such a fine person.' Let's say it gets him elected, does that work as an administration strategy. Leadership by angst?

That is because you, unlike the vast majority of voters, actually think about things like that. Most voters do well just to find the polling place, see which candidate is a "D" and which is an "R" and then select between the two. Single issue voters have their 'hot buttons' and ignore everything else about the candidate they have been convinced matches their 'hot button'. Pro-Gun; Anti-Gun; Pro-Abortion-Anti-Abortion; Pro ObamaCare-Anti ObamaCare. Nothing else except their 'hot button' matters.

Precisely. About 21,000 of those unfortunates kill themselves, though I expect many have a good reason for doing so. I suspect the all-time, total number, including by bombings, is under 100. That would be a slow afternoon's work for Terry Nichols and Tim McVeigh.

I think ending prohibition put more gangsters out of business that machine gunning them down did.
4
The accepted history is that they were trying to restrict firearms to gangsters like Al Capone. It wasn't really a ban, it was a tax. They also went after said gangsters big-time, machine-gunning them down where they stood. I think that had something to do with the precipitous drop in gangsters. Do you think something like that would work today? Focusing on going after the bad guys?

I spent 28 years teaching/counseling dysfunctional adolescents and have been called everything you can (and some things you can't) imagine. However, I always remembered (and still remember as I read some of the trolling comments on this site), I'm an adult, I'm in control of MY behavior, and escalating reactions only make things worse for everyone. Sharlow, obviously (and for whatever reason(s)) failed to control his behavior and will pay a huge price for it.......likely dismissal from his job and possible jail time. Individuals who interact with "disturbed" people simply CANNOT allow themselves to be baited into such behavior...CANNOT is a very extreme term, but if you can't contain yourself, if you react with anger, if you get so ego-involved that you "engage" at either the verbal, or with cumulative escalation, the physical level, you should think about finding another job. I think Officer Sharlow will have the opportunity to "think about" that other job.....

Doesn't sound like the cops were there to see it, and got conflicting stories depending on what the political views of the participants are.

The police should not be administering punishments, no matter how deserving they may appear to be. Not only is it not their job, it's emphatically not their job. Such actions are illegal for very, very good reasons.

Jamie, I said I personally do not approve of the gay life style. That does not mean that I don't support your and your spouse's right to choose how to live so long as you are not militant idiots like the Westboro Baptist Church people. Judging you (and for that matter, the Westboro Baptist Church people) is way, way above my pay scale. I do thank you though for creating an interesting puzzle for me to solve by your description of your relationship - grin.

Admin, faculty, and staff should certainly treat every student with respect and decency. At the same time, students should realize that they are not buying a degree, but rather paying for the opportunity to acquire knowledge and demonstrate their abilities. UA is open access, so everyone has the same opportunity to show and prove. The flipside of this is that many students arrive underprepared for college-level study. These individuals often find their college experience quite frustrating, drop out, and become very vocal critics of the UA system. These dissatisfied customers' testimonials often shrug off all personal responsibility and place the blame for their failure entirely on the UA system. It is a shame that UA alums don't speak at the same volume as these disgruntled former students. I often wonder if students truly get a better education elsewhere. Is University of Washington's biology degree program superior to UAA's, or, is UW just more selective in who they let in?

This article reeks of a plea for more money and not what the school needs, a slimming down of the excess support staff, elimination of sports teams and NCAA influence draining resources from the education mission. Most people right now believe that there are better schools to go to outside Alaska, it's cost point was about the only selling point for the school. With the tuition increases that the students have suffered over the last ten years that advantage is going away and more students are going to head outside. Also the school needs to start treating it students for what they are, a customer buying a service from them. Most of the Admin only seem to treat them as a walking cashbox to draw from.

It is very good parenting. Teach your kids to be respectful and tolerant is the best thing ever. I know when my FtM husband and I finally have kids we are going to take them and they are going to support their dad and everyone else.
4
Maam, with all due respect---taking your kids to an event like that isn't good parenting at all . Your teaching your kids to celebrate immoral behavior and poor dressing choices is parenting at it's worse. I do question part of your story. Out of 10,ooo people there , this handful of protesters picked on your kids ? What are the odds of that ? Since you were there--is there any truth to the story some of the party goers took a cross from the protesters and destroyed it ? If true, did you tell your kids its ok to take things from people you disagree with and destroy them ? So your lesson to your kids is that people who disagree with others should be removed by police before the party gets started ? What kind of lesson on tolerance is being taught in your home ?

Pork Chop, how would you have done the oil lease sales?
4
I believe that the problem that you describe can be credited to Democratic Governor William Egan. This is the same Governor that laid the the groundwork for the first Prudhoe Bay oil lease sale when he was Governor. The "crony capitalism" that follows both the oil production on the North Slope and the Commercial Fisheries has origins in his administration.

Actually, the real cause of these road ruts, which I suspect are responsible for MANY accidents on Anchorage area roads and highways, is the insanity of allowing cars to drive with studded tires, which tear up any road surface, particularly asphalt, and which have long been illegal almost everywhere outside Alaska for precisely that reason. I have spoken to DOT personnel and engineers who estimate that 90 to 95% of the road wear on Anchorage streets and roads is due to studs alone. This effectively costs the municipality, and the state, tens of MILLIONS of dollars annually in repairs. And who knows how many have been injured, or died, due to accidents caused the hydroplaning after rain has filled the ruts? I have often been forced to drive on the Glenn Highway during or after a heavy rain while offset in my lane to avoid the water-filled ruts, making for an unsafe situation for myself and others, but not nearly as unsafe as losing control due to hydroplaning.
4
Sloppy controls on the part of the subcontractor who has a huge incentive to do a crappy job on replacing the roadway, is the number one cause. If it fails quicker, they get to replace it again sooner. The contractors up here are completely opposed to researching solutions to improve the road durability because it would lower their income. Everyone is in bed with everyone else around here. There has been a section of highway made of concrete in place for the past 10-15 years and it has almost no wear on it at all... it's nothing special, costs a bit more than asphalt, but not 5-10 times more. Why don't we use it in more places? Lobbyists.

Guys that have to strut around in public showing off their guns are clearly compensating for deficiencies in other areas of their lives.

I certainly would accept I don't have all the information, but I am sure that different states have different laws about it. There is no federal/universal regulation for background checks. Private sellers, some of which operate through gun-shows do not universally do background checks.

Thank you Elizabeth for your well written letter. I blame our regulators. The AMA approved the sale. Shame on them. Shame on Trillium. Unfortunately, no amount of disgust, sorrow and frustration will change anything. I posted yesterday my doctors name and her husband. They've got their million. I love my doctor and I'm sorry I failed in my now deleted post to express that. I'd been w/Dr Mary Pugsley for many years and she always, always made me feel like she really cared. She listened. She ordered tests when I needed them. Never hesitated. It still stands true however, that beginning 3 years ago, she changed. The 'fake' physicals where we just chatted. The concern I had over some new strange symptoms that scared me. She said "huh, that's not normal" and then sent me on my way w/no information. She'd changed. I'm a good person. I felt dismissed. Now? Learning all of this? I'm ashamed. Of her, I feel stupid now thinking it was my fault. I'm so ashamed of you doc.

Well, I certainly hope President Sanders gets rid of that ugly rule. How can that even be? I wouldn't give them a red cent! Maybe Alaska should "claw back" all those credits since they didn't produce for us!

I agree with you Ross Timm and the Judges decision concerning the property.
4
Why should the State go after attorney's fees? The sisters had a valid complaint regardless if people think they were being selfish. If the State goes after legitimate case's fees (versus a case dismissed as frivolous) that instills a precedence to other potential claimants that may cause them to think twice about questioning the State in court. The State downplays it, but try using "prior historical use" as a way to continue using state or federal land after they change access or use rules. And I am sure more than a few of the musher, landowners, and ATV riders arguing it is their right to use this trail aggressively defend their property right on their own property.

This is Lesil. The police update was sent to me and the story had not been updated. I could see that people were wondering why there was an autopsy of the unfortunate young woman being performed and I wanted people to know that she had lost her life prior to the crash.

You are wrecking the environment and being a leech on society. I hope that you are arrested for putting public safety at risk by firing a gun to protect your nap. You have invaded public space and you belong in a jail cell. There, you can nap on your cot free from drones.
10
I am that person shooting at the drone. Cause as I took a nap I hear a humming and look out my window to see a drone with his camera in my window so I grabbed my gun and proceeded to try and shot it out of the air. As I feel he was invading my home. I have three people living on my boat and all three of us own our own bikes. I will shot at it again I see it around my boat. And if anyone wants to know where drone man lives I can tell you.
