Heidi, your experiences remind me of those of a friend’s long ago. Mr. Del Moro is an honorable man. He committed to the project after Cosmos acquired the property and he’s still here. We have a common interest in procuring a grocery store for Lake Hills. In hindsight, I wish the planning had been done in better context, with the housing built at Kelsey Creek rather than Lake Hills. Removing the concomitant agreement day-lighting Kelsey Creek was a mistake; QFC’s management decided early that Bel-East offered a more promising future than a distant Lake Hills. We assumed too much.
4
Yes, we've had the same kinds of meetings with the CoB. They give people hope, but the reality is the CoB will tell you "it's private property and we can't do anything about it". Again, I point to codes in other cities, but having had the Planning Director snarl into my face "No, Heidi, we're NOT doing codes!", I can tell you the CoB is NOT all that interested in redeveloping the neighborhood shopping centers in a way that benefits the neighborhoods. The neighborhoods may not want housing at the centers but accepting *some* housing is the only way for developers to make the retil portion pencil out. Where is Mr. Del Moro planning to put a grocery store in the new LH center? I don't see it fitting into the design he went with. And that design... *sigh* That seems to be more about him than the CoB. The design of that center makes me sad. It's unattractive and uninviting. There's no community gathering spaces, just a sea of bleak concrete. Lake Hills deserved better...

I think that, far from being sacrilegious, you have named and illustrated a very important phenomenon with respect to our imaging of God. The image of God as Father is incomplete without the complementary image of God as Mother; and we must always remember that both images of God are incomplete, both separately and even together: God is God, and we are not. Thank you for an important and insightful post.

"The fires of Hell" are mentioned in almost all--if not all--Fatima devotions. And a very angry, very pain-oriented, very punitive, very male, very capital punishment-driven God comes through when you listen to the Blue Army and others. I don't want to be sacrilegious, and I hope I'm not, but I have found it uncanny the research-documented-as-consistent one-liners from spousal, date, and child abusers seem to be transferred to God in the Fatima story: "I've been patient but forgiveness has its limits." "You don't love me enough." "You can't say I didn't warn you." "Payback's a bitch." "You knew the rules, and now you'll pay with pain." "You damn deserve what I'm going to do to you." "This'll teach the others a lesson." "It's too late to say 'I'm sorry' now. You had your chance." "Fear is all you seem to understand." "I'm hurting you because I love you." "You don't know your place." "I'll show you who's boss." "Why can't you be as good as ____" "You can just GO TO HELL!"

So the buck stops at Obama. Got it. That also explains why Trump waited so long to fire Flynn. He was waiting for Obama to do it.
4
Flynn was working for, had worked for, had security clearance, updated late in 2016, all in the Obama Admin. For not saying outright, what they had gleaned from communications spying on anyone who had talked to the Russian ambassador, and they were legion because that is what the Russian ambassador (or any ambassador) does as a part of his job. He isn't an assassin. He's not a spy. His job is to glean what he might talking to people. So Obama's outfit knew everyone and anyone who talked to him. The were negligent and selfish, scheming, fuming with revenge and not in any way looking out for the American citizen. THEY should have taken down Flynn. Before the inauguration. And anyone else working against this country they knew about.

Trump and Trump alone is responsible for selecting and vetting the people he appoints to positions of authority. And when he learned that Flynn lied, he should have fired him then and there instead of waiting for weeks until the press called him out. It's called taking responsibility and acting like a chief executive. Trump failed this simple test. End of story.
6
Did I say that? No. I said that if Obama Admin had indictable evidence, that is not what they proffered to Trump. They advised Trump people to not hire Flynn. That is not in the course of due diligence. That is like advising Trump to not hire Willie Sutton for a Treasury position, instead of arresting him for bank robbery. There is a difference. On your watch, you still take care of business, even in the lame duck months post election. Obama Admin did not. They relied on the confusion and learning curve mistakes of a new administration to try to trip up the rival party with its successful outcome in the election. You can find that type of stuff directly behind a walking chicken, on the ground. And it now has been proven that the Obama Admin was leaving a barren landscape of succession, replete with quisling like moles still in appointed positions.

Actually Dowd made her article more about the Republican health care act and its shortcomings, and secondarily about Trump and Ryan. Her point is that representatives will face increased opposition at home if the health care act is passed as it stands by the Senate. I doubt that will happen. You're right that Dowd has expanded on the Trump personality, but really, like all other bills, personality plays a big part, along with political ideology. You can't have a discussion on a major law without considering the personalities and ideologies of those involved. If Congress were to rationally follow cost-cutting measures, Congress could do it within the ACA model. Or, they could switch to single-payer, but ideology stands in the way (that's back to personality). As a nation we could afford the ACA, though it's gone. If the AHCA as it stands is passed, it will be a giant step backward, a lot of people will lose a lot, and a lot of people will be plenty angry. That's what Dowd is saying.
4
It is unfortunate that Dowd makes the health care discussion about Trump. By doing so, she erodes our ability to glean insight into the real problems underlying the health care issue. Forget Trump, what are the underlying problems. Health care is a necessity. Its costs are not subject to market control because it is essential and because supply is controlled by the medical industry through limitations on the number of medical training positions and through "rules" on service quality imposed to present barriers to competition. Bottom line: Costs are entirely out of control and service quality is declining. Obamacare, though well intended, failed to address the underlying problem of cost and was from its outset unsustainable. We simply cannot afford it. The Oregon deficit comes significantly from Obamacare costs. Things are going to get much worse before they get better. The medical industry has enormous power. No one currently has a viable solution.

Let's freakem out. There are a whole lot of guns out there that are also not registered at all. Prior to all this gun control bs you could buy rifles at stores like Sears, Honsport, and JC Penny and not have to register them at all. Sleep well, criminals fear citizens with guns as much as gun control advocates.
4
There are far fewer guns than reported in the recent news articles. Hawaii police departments register firearms. However, the departments do not have the ability to track any firearm that leaves the state. In other words, there is no way the police can "un-register" a firearm. Many of the firearms registered in Honolulu are military personnel who dutifully obey Hawaii's gun registration laws. However, when these same soldiers, sailors, marines or airmen are rotated to a new duty station out side of Hawaii, guess what most of those guns leave the state, but remain "registered" with HPD. So before all you liberals and gun control advocates start freaking out on Facebook or Instagrams, there are a lot less firearms residing in Hawaii than anyone realizes. I would venture to guess that it would be lucky if we even have 200,000 firearms actually in Hawaii.

Affirmative action exists because racism and discriminatory practices do. If you don't like afirmative action, stop racism and discrimination. Really that simple
5
There's a difference between discrimination and affirmative action. One can argue the efficacy of the programs or the criteria for determining racial identity. But one cannot argue against the proposition that certain racial groups have historically suffered from discrimination, continue to suffer disproportionately by almost every social & economic criterion, and are therefore deserving of affirmative action. Although almost all immigrant groups (including Jews and white Catholics like the Irish and Poles) suffered discrimination, groups that were enslaved and or colonized (African-Americans, Native-Americans, Native-Hawaiians) suffered considerably more, so the burden on society to redress this harm is much greater. If you want to suggest that affirmative action be aimed through a means test that, surprise, surprise, just happens to target a disproportionate number of the most racially repressed groups, fine. I, for one, DO want my tax dollars to help those who were discriminated

Our immigration levels should be increased to at least 500,000 a year. We have a huge, greatly underpopulated country with a lot of potential. We can become a global powerhouse only by greatly increasing our population and internal markets. The US is so powerful economically because it has a large domestic market for its goods and services.

Sorry DG, I'm booked, however, I will share my work with those in need. I'm "old school" when growing medical cannabis. I harvest just after the POW (period of wetness) combines humidity and temperature for botrytis to gain a foothold. I then cut colas to 24" lengths, hang them to dry (to about 20% moisture content) then lovingly place them in bins to cure. In December, I'll pull the bins ready for trimming. I hire professional trimmers as my hands can no longer trim. Some patients do not want to cover the cost of trimming so they end trimming themselves. In short, I'm still processing last years grow and as the cure removes the chlorophyll, the full spectrum of (cannabinoids) aromatic magic emerges, and the flavor is savory. I again like the idea of meeting up but I would invite anyone to attend. Like a bluegrass jam at Sam Bond's, the enthusiasts gather around the outside to listen and learn while the advanced players burn through a Flatt and Scruggs number. It's organic! Old Soul

i agree whole-heart-edly. you sir, are admirable. are you looking for another patient? my broken back is finally reminding me most graphically that in fact, it's broken. i am growing a few plants out of blind faith that i will be able to move enough to take care of them. i'm ready to take a child out of school to help on the farm (not) seriously. and i ask... do you trim by hand or machine? do you do anything to your dried, cured bud to remove some of the hairs? what do you consider into "fair compensation? " this discussion i've opened with tons of people. it's amazing what i hear in response.... i want to get together a no host table discussion about the legalized pot business as it stands now. all comers that are pro marijuana. it's not a forum of for it or against it. against it people aren't needed and would be asked to not participate. they can observe and witness -not contribute.. they would have no valid input. it's about what is now, as it is now. what do you think?

Constitutions will have to be changed for him to stand again, both ANC and the country. That's where NDZ comes in.

As far as I can make out, Zuma has not said that he will not stand again as ANC leader in December. Indeed I would still say it is probable that he will do so, especially as the "non-campagne" by his ex-wife who lives in his house, has not gained much traction. And if he mobilizes his troops, will the others have the guts to fight? It promises to be a long En Marche to freedom....

You know, using the word "fake" four times in only one run-on sentence doesn't really make it so. You'd better throw in a "Hillary." Oh sorry, you did. My bad.

More fake news from the AP. Just repeating previous fake news and using the false theory that the more people who believe fake stories the greater the chance that a hoax might after all turn out to be real and not fake. Hillary lost. Her supporters are not going to impeach the winner, especially using a fake pretense. The AP is not legit, to use a reporter's term for what they dig up. It can be fake and legit at the same time, it seems.

I have found it very easy to feed the hungry, reach out to the oppressed, teach children and care for the sick (which I do professionally) without worshipping in a Catholic Church. Even though I was born and raised a Catholic I find it easier for me to preform these tasks without supporting some slimy bishop living in a mansion. I have even preformed these tasks while dealing with cancer. I have also had a slimy bishop suggest that I lie to my family and not tell them about abuse that happend to me. If you enjoy supporting a church in this country that is controlled by corrupt MEN like this bishop that is your choice. These bishops love the income they receive from those that stay (even knowing all of these scandals are still going on).
6
Nancy G., your post makes perfect sense and I understand why you feel that corrupt bishops have driven you out of the church. But, with all due respect, I find that your departure is somewhat of an insult to the rest of us in the church. Aren't we, the Catholics who pray and celebrate together, feed the poor, minister to the oppressed, teach our children, and care for the sick, worth staying with?

True, there's other places to live, but not the high paying jobs, and the tax revenue that comes with them. Who's going to fund your health care and OAS? Service workers, most professionals working contract jobs and "low-income" wealthy immigrant housewives all pay much lower taxes than 37 year old doctors, lawyers and accountants, who sacrifice family time to work very long hours to make a good living, but we're told by people like you to move elsewhere or lower our expectations. It's going to hurt you more than it hurts us when we move away.

Gee whiz. So all the concern expressed by members of both parties after top secret briefings is all a sham? All the information about Manafort and others in the Trump camp us wrong too? Trump's recent meeting with the Russian ambassador and their mutual verbal love pats is just our imagination? The Russians hate Obama and Clinton. That tells me they did their jobs. The Russians love their Pet Presudent. That tells me he's not. You're a good widdle Trump Chump Bunny.

The whole "Russia" thing is a lingering lie pushed by the outgoing administration during the election. It Created enough buzz to stick, and was probably based on Flynn, and Flynn alone. As far as "Fake, Fake, Fake" tell that to your gods at MSNBC and CNN. The diffusion of media is causing a panic among traditional news outlets.....they no longer have the majority buying into their slanted information... their power is failing. This "fake news" buzzcrap is only going to hasten their demise.

When I look at the 40+ translations on Biblegateway for Matthew 6:7 -- praying like Pagans, it would seem many prefer 'babbling' or 'repeating' or both. I thought the verse meant that the Pagans were trying to control the god by reciting various formulas or incantations (I don't recall where I learned that). So Jesus meant that controlling the god is not the purpose of prayer. The next verse is 'Your Abba knows what you need even before you ask,' so no need to ask. Then the text has the Our Father which is not necessarily a prayer of petition. How could it be if Jesus has just said no need to ask. Rather think of exclamations. "!!! You give us each day our daily bread !!!" Not a petition. Not trying to control the god. For the historical Jesus, the Mass would resemble Pagan babble As for Fatima, it came out of the minds of those children. But what about the phenomenon where thousands there at Fatima supposedly saw the sun whirling in the sky. What about their minds? Fascinating
6
I'd be curious to hear how fellow Catholics square praying the rosary with our Lord's instruction to avoid vain repetition of prayer, "as the heathens do?" (Matthew 6:7) I certainly mean no offense if one finds value in this form of prayer, it is more of a curiosity in that it seems contrary to scripture. As for Fatima... sorry, does not even pass the straight-faced test to me!

Rambler, knowing the Cow Creeks as I do, I'm aware they are very diversified, as they, with their tax advantages and casino profits, have bought up a great number of businesses in Douglas County. They are one of the county's major employers. They've shown no particular ability as forest managers, however, and the Elliot Forest is far from their historic land along the South Umpqua River and Cow Creek. With the recent death of their long-time tribal leader Sue Shaffer, I fear they care more about business profits than their traditional culture from the Miwaleta. I write this sadly as one of their original restoration supporters from the 1970s and 80s.
6
Sure Doug, I'll explain at least one facet. If nothing else, buying the Elliott Forest for $221 million is a good business deal, especially in this rising timber market. It's also a solid way for Cow Creek to diversify some of their casino profits. I wish they could be a larger player. In Oregon, Indians have been more sustainable forest managers than mills.

Popular likable guy but no political experience. Will embarrass himself during candidate debates. Arnie would be laughed at for his maid escapades. Hollywood candidates should stay in Hollywood. They just pretend to be someone or something else for entertainment. We should seriously groom an Asian/Indian candidate with common sense more than anything else. Obama was a good president. He didn't talk like he was reading a speech prepared by a speechwriter or a teleprompter like Reagan or everybody else. You could ask him questions and he would give you honest answers right off the top of his head. Highly intelligent. We've got 3.8 years left to find the right Democratic candidate so choose intelligently. Maybe less if there is an impeachment. Remember Nixon's one? The newspapers made lots of money, and I enjoyed learning so much information that I didn't know before.

James Comey made his reputation by standing up to White House Council Alberto Gonzales and Andrew Card, at the bed of critically ill Attorney General John Ashcroft. Gonzales wanted Ashcroft to sign a reauthorization of domestic spying. Comey knew it was illegal and stood between Gonzales and Ashcroft. Ashcroft raised himself up and told Gonzeles to "f--- off". After that, Comey was a legend of propriety. There is far more to Trump's ethical, moral, and legal problems than just the "Russian deal", but that, if it is proved, would be among the biggest scandals in American History. The boobs will support Trump till the end of their lives, but if Congress and the FBI do their duty, Trump could be toast. That's why the obstruction from Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnel. They are betting everything on Trump's survival.
4
It appears Comey's most endearing qualifications for FBI head was that he is a lawyer, tall (6'8"), male, and white. The tall preference shows up all the time. FBI head must be a CPA or a lawyer. The white deal is strange for the Obama Admin, where it began to appear that non white was preferred but tall and male was the essence. Comey didn't understand the sideboards to his role, and it has caused problems for the Bureau and for public trust, especially public trust in Justice Dept. You fire people just like he was: when they are not in their office, when they don't expect it, and so that they can retrieve zero from the company offices, store, communications. As to the Russia deal, that is all the Democrats have going for them, and they are going to ride that pony to its death, just like the one trick pony late night shows that are having to invent stuff to stay relevant and crudely spotlighted.

Let's imagine we are jurors with only the evidence in this story as we discuss our verdict. You say there is no evidence here. But that is not correct. We have the testimony of the two people present at that meeting on the bishop's patio, and their stories are contradictory. Juries have this dilemma of choosing who is more credible all time time, most obviously in alleged rape trials. I say the deacon's story is most plausible because he admits signing a document admitting he had previously lied! A liar does not do that. He could have said he refused to sign. By admitting the bishop has a document, the deacon opens himself to the bishop destroying the document and saying it never existed. If inventing a lie, the deacon would not have placed himself into that situation; its just silly unless it is true. There are no known reasons for the deacon to lie, but the bishop has good reason to lie. This is not a smoking gun, but it is real evidence of the sort juries have to deal with.
6
1/2 Actually, Elaine, you did answer my question on exactly my terms! Indeed you interpreted my terms more harshly than intended. I was NOT proposing a choice between innocent and guilt, but between preponderance of the evidence AVAILABLE IN THIS STORY--was the candidate deacon's story "more likely" true or "more likely" false. On the other hand, you did stray beyond the evidence available to both of us. I presume you understand that it is a flagrant violation of due process to invoke something like "inundation of false accusations these days." Even if that were true, to invoke data extraneous to the evidence about this case. is a the very essence of discrimination. There is no difference, in terms of due process, between (1) condemned a black man of raping a white women because that is what they do, and (2) your invoking your conviction that false accusations are rife these days to acquit the bishop here. How about we try discussing this on the bases of available evidence alone?

Precisely. Maybe not at first but eventually, Blackrock et al. will arrange things so that most or all of the risk is shouldered by the CIB and most or all of the profits flow to the private investors, probably with a tax treatment sweetener added.

We'll be hit with both taxes and user fees. And the CIB will pave the way to privatize the profits and socialize losses.

No idea whether Galchenyuk will become the top line centre they need so badly; his chances of doing it would be greatly enhanced if they'd try putting him there and leaving him alone for a while.
6
Im not Scottie. The Habs cant score and they havent been able to score for years - is that going to magically change this year? I doubt it. Is Galchenyuk all of a sudden going to be a 1st line center or are the Habs going to find one? I doubt it. The difference though might be this one year when Price is auditioning for a new multi-year, multi-million dollar contract...he is the Habs one and only chance but other than that...I dont see it. I see it as all down hill after that...expensive aging D, no quality centers and after this year, maybe no Price.

I am a lot of things including 1/16 Chickasaw, Native-American . So, I don't sit around thinking about race like a lot of these posters do. While I am not Black (African-American) I still think his message should be read and thought about by many of these posters. Life is not about race, race, race. A recent article in another publication quoted a genealogist that said by around 2250 there will be no true races, due to intermarriage. Let's hope so.

I'm not a writer, but I am a reader, and since I was about 8 my preferred type of fiction is science fiction, from which perspective the whole idea of "cultural appropriation" is nonsense. You don't need to be a robot to write stories about robots, you don't need to be a Time Lord to write stories about Dr. Who, and you don't need to be a Klingon to write stories about Klingons. On the fantasy side, you don't need to be an elf to write stories about elves.

Roland, thanks for providing clarity. And I agree that buying a Tesla solar roof is a luxury that most people will not consider. It's something for the well-off, rather like owning a Tesla car... and, increasingly, rather like owning the actual house that the roof goes over, unfortunately. What I can tell you is that a friend of mine in California used to pay $300 in elec bills each MONTH during the summer. He invested $20k in solar panels and expects to break even within 6-8 years of installing his panels (in terms of bill savings). He's had them about a year now, and so far so good. So it really can be something more than a status symbol for impressing friends..
4
Shingle your roof with conventional shingles for $10,000 as opposed to $76,700, then take the $66,700 you saved and invest it. Use the annual dividend to pay your energy bills or save it up to replace your roof with a brand new one in 30 years and have plenty left over for a nice vacation. Any way you look at it, a $76,700 solar roof is not a rational business decision even with the economic argument posed by Musk. The only reason to buy such a roof is because you wish to make your friends jealous or because you want to lower your environmental impact.

Another example of knee jerk right wing trashing of government. I suppose you are one of those who think government should be run like a business. Like Bombardier, for example? Next you'll be saying price collusion at the gas pumps is "another fine example of excellent public sector management".

awesome, any chance the cost will increase on both contracts and the overall metrolink project with two rail-car suppliers? Call me jaded but yes. Another fine example of excellent public sector management for major infrastructure projects.

"Is it just me or does it feel like someone is getting impeached soon?" It's just you. It seems the "impeach" crowd seem to be over looking a couple of small details - charged with what statute and supported by what evidence? Add to that a lack of understanding on impeachment proceedings and you have nothing more than speculation.

LOL. I was very right about Bannon and Burke, wasn't I? I picked up on that one in November. And I actually read the sites and follow them on Twitter.
4
I've been to both those sites and I haven't a clue what you are talking about. Nothing I have seen there could possibly be taken as contrary to the Catholic Faith, in fact everything is unadulterated Catholic doctrine. It is easy to make unsubstantiated accusations but if you expect people to believe them you ought to provide some evidence to back them up.

These homes were priced low in hopes of triggering a bidding war. Agents are not seeing these any more in 905 and thus re setting the price at market.
6
In Mississauga there are 300 more listings in May than in April. Properties are sitting on the market for about 10 days, then they are taken off MLS and listed again with a higher price. I wonder if the realtors tell their clients that the property didn't sell initially or just talk an accidental buyer into "what a great deal this is"?

Buyers are starting to wake up. Recent buyers will be stuck with over-valued properties just like buyers in the late 80's - early 90's. Want to buy? Wait for prices to come down. They always do.

Trump's contribution to fresh air is comparable to the contribution that eating too many curried eggs has to fresh air.
6
From the very beginning, long before Trump was elected as president of USA, I defended the man as a breath of fresh air that the US needed so badly after decades of stagnation and twisted policies of Hussein Obama. Of late, I began to realize that Mr. Trump is full of hot air, talks a lot and achieves very little. I am concerned that the rabid liberals in the USA will apply their diabolic tactics to worsen the situation!

Not sure why you find my conclusion odd after you made this initial snarky remark: "Quite so! And the message of Christ unadulterated is in latin, requires medieval-era clothing, and demands full belief in all the adulteration piled upon Christ's message by the Church over the centuries." and then this: "Create a ceremony worthy of Jesus' teachings? We need to create a ritual? Jesus endorsed the yet to be created rituals because he taught in the temple? He also taught in the fields and in people's homes." Are you being obtuse intentionally? Maybe if you replied with an opinion instead of asking questions that may or may not be rhetorical I could better understand your position.
4
Odd, you seem to have concluded that I am opposed to ritual, and turn to mocking graduation ceremonies to make your point. But the comparison is telling: you recognize the rituals are created by people to fulfill a human craving. Purely manmade, just like the rituals of the chruch. Jesus engaged in some jewish rituals. The Catholic Church does not perform those rituals, like Passover seders. Why does the Church not do as Jesus did, if the basis of its rituals is purportedly the practice of those rituals by Jesus?

You're welcome, Scott. I guess one of the reasons I was able to recover the Rosary as part of my prayer life is that, as I said in one of my posts, I don't regard so-called "distractions" (which is what I think the author means by "mindless repetition") as a bad thing. When I say the Rosary I'm not "on guard" against anything. Way too much work for an old guy like me.
4
Mike: I just got around to reading the piece you linked above, I had to laugh at the very end where the author points out that the Rosary itself can be an occasion to sin... the author states: "This does not mean that there is not a danger of mindlessly repeating the Rosary or other such devotions. There is. We must always stay on guard against that very real possibility." I just don't see the merits of this negative, fear-based mentality but that is just me I guess... anyhow, thanks for the citation and for the interesting dialogue.

"Her written requests for an American Sign Language interpreter were rebuffed, . . . "
4
I don't see it mentioned in a quick reading of the story, but did she want an English speaking deaf interpreter or was she demanding a Japanese-speaking deaf interpreter. Shouldn't be that hard to provide her with an English speaker ASL communicator, but providing one in another language is more difficult. Just because she attended school in the US and has a boyfriend here in Hawaii doesn't mean she speaks English.

It's a complex problem. The patient may no longer be acute, but still require 24/7 care or aren't stable enough to come home, among other reasons. This can also pose a risk of re-admit if they are taken home too early. This is especially true for complex chronic illnesses where the patient has multiple comorbidities. If they're going home and the care level is too high, the caregiver risks burnout, the patient risks a readmit, and their caregiver is likely not a doctor who is able to respond any other way but going back to the hospital. Retirement homes often don't have RNs or those trained enough to handle a patient with complex chronic illness. They are often staffed with one RPN and care is mainly provided by PSWs. Long term care has wait lists and many issues. The family doctor is merely a coordinator to specialists. The patient is above their knowledge. There really isn't a place in the system for these patients to go that can care for them other than the hospital.
4
I can see both sides of this but if a patient no longer needs the level of care that a hospital provides, why is it the hospital's job to find another facility for the patient? Isn't that the responsibility of: - the patient - the patient's family - the patient's doctor - the local health authority

Your post is predictable - set out demands. That's exactly what is NOT needed - demands from either party. In order to work together, parties need first to identify areas in which they agree, or can be moved to agree by seeing it in their best interest. Neither party will have all their wish-list fulfilled in any deal making. It is always said the hallmark of a fair deal is not that parties are equally happy, but that the parties are equally unhappy. If your interest is strictly partisan, winning, you won't be satisfied in a coalition with any party. Better to defeat the Liberal government at first chance, and if the Lieutenant Governor permits the NDP to form government, defeat that government too. Then with another election, you can hope to win a Green majority and impose all your platform. But little chance of that happening. You need to figure with whom you have the best chance of implementing priority platform items and of changing the other party's platform.

Or 2013 supporters of the BC Libs stayed at home. I agree with your premise that the Greens and Liberals could complement each other IF the BC Libs agreed to - immediately legislate a ban on corporate and union political fundraising - abandon Site C - withdraw support for Transmountain - double the foreign buyer's tax to 30% and regulate the flow of foreign capital into the residential real estate market by, say, requiring disclosure of the identity of beneficial owners and requiring pre-sale contacts/assignments to be registered and subject to the property purchase tax - abandoning the Massey bridge project or, alternatively, making it subject to approval in the BC Lib proposed transit revenue referendum So, in other words, the Greens and the BC Liberals COULD complement each other if the BC Liberals stopped behaving like the BC Liberals. I see no evidence of the contrition or self-reflection required by Ms. Clark or her party to accomplish that miracle.

Wow - another that falls for the fake media. The liberal snowflakes need anyone that looks offical to make President Trump look bad or uncover anything. They are sad losers that just won't let anything go. Democrats are the ones worried - that a new FBI head will pursue who's been leaking in the Obama administration (and Hillary types in Trump's), Hillary herself and her pay-for-play, and maybe even Obama-appointed Comey and why he's allowed potential evidence to be destroyed and why he never started an investigation into the felony leaks of classified info. I really hope liberals will continue to be obstructionists and act like immature children, maybe get Schumer to drop some more tears, Pelosi and Waters to do some screaming, good stuff like that - so come next election everyone can see who is and isn't working for Americans.

John, it troubles me deeply that your society treats women so badly. It also troubles me that you struggle so much to stand up for the women in your family and community. Charity starts at home, and moves outwards. Please find the strength to protect the women in your immediate environment. If you don't, then who will?

"See in every woman your own mother, sister and daughter." No. Defining women in relation to a man is part of the problem. See in every woman a human being deserving of the same rights to dignity, safety, and freedom that you are entitled to. How about this instead. See in every male rapist, abuser, murderer, your father, your brother, your son, your best friend. Then ask yourself why we let these men get away with what they are doing. Why we ignore the signs that they don't respect women as human beings with equal rights. We as men need to address our lack of humanity in treating (or ignoring the treatment of) women as less than human.

Exactly. Spicer has to speak for his boss which makes he look incompetent. All he's doing is passing lies from his boss to the press without looking stupid. But I can imagine how busy Trump must be but I wonder how did all the other former Presidents do it. Better staff, more brains?

Spicer gets beat up because he's tries to stand up for his stupid boss. Only a hard up fool would try and make excuses for a pathological liar.

"Blacklisting", really? Isn't that the complaint by POC and Indigenous Peoples? Segregation exists. Just as in the 50s when White singers sang sanitized versions of Black songs because there were All White radio stations. It's not a call to censorship by publishers, but, as Andre Alexis suggests, self-censorship by authors. One shouldn't be telling other people's stories if you haven't earned the right.
11
I think that the idea of cultural appropriation CAN be an issue in criticism. It can generate some insights, such as those the author expressed in his example of the various types of forest gods in literature, poetry, art, etc. However, what could be a valid CRITICISM of a work of art isn't really what's being encouraged: what's being encouraged is a blacklisting of various works and their creators when they are deemed to have committed cultural appropriation. In other words, they are not saying "I see an appropriation of an idea that can only be expressed by people with such-and-such an experience/background/etc." They are saying "I see an appropriation of an idea that can only be expressed by people with such-and-such an experience/background/etc. Therefore, No One should be allowed to see/read/hear it." That's what should be debated here: not the criticism (people are free to criticize all they want) but the application of it through censorship.

Wrong. China's just the one you hear about most in the news. That's why you think their volume must be the highest, but that's a logical fallacy. The most by volume is the US, but western media outlets generally aren't allowed to report on that.
4
China is almost certainly the most prolific source of hacking, in terms of sheer volume. The controversy about Russia is specifically about what they are doing with the results of their hacks (i.e. influencing western elections), not so much about the hacks themselves. This is not to say the US doesn't have or use computer network intrusion capabilities (they certainly do), but your comment is somewhat naive and definitely incorrect.

Time to get off your "Post-Enlightenment winner takes all" cultural pedestal. Those cultures that carefully stewarded different artistic and religious traditions (eg. Anglo-Saxon for 2 millenia) have flourished, while those cultures that have appropriated and extinguished other traditions have vanished (eg. Greek, Roman). in the 21st century globalist context, Western cultures and other cultures would be better off co-existing in harmony rather than mashing up in a Western-dominated global dogs breakfast.
4
that's just BS. There is no requirement for anyone to study a culture source before creating art. It's up to the audience to determine if they like it, appreciate it, etc. Culture has been copied, stolen, appropriated, etc. throughout history by everyone. Cultures evolve through time and this is one way they do it. Time to get off your holier than thou pedestal.

You know, this is exactly what is the problem with most issues to include Trump. Everybody wants to be some sort of prognosticator when it comes to who did what, where, why and for what reason. This along with social media, regular media and the various forms of information, rumors and misinformation along with fake news spreads like wildfires and before you know it, the president is involved in Russia, our FBI head is fired due to miscommunication and the game plays on. Always a good idea to get the facts first before we go off on a tangent of fake news which spurs even more problems. I'm going to wait for an actual report.

Given the grand scale of his hacking attack, this may suggest that it is the coordinated actions of a state player like perhaps North Korea in partnership with organized criminal groups out of Eastern Europe or possibly China. The thing I do not understand is that while the attacks and subsequent demands for ransoms is easy to do, just how do these guys actually receive the ransoms without being traced and identified and if not prosecutable, are not terminated with extreme prejudice.

(article) 10 Every person has a right to full and equal recognition and exercise of his human rights and freedoms, without distinction, exclusion or preference based on race, colour, sex, "gender identity or expression" *, pregnancy, "sexual orientation" **, civil status, age except as provided by law, religion, political convictions, language, ethnic or national origin, social condition, a handicap or the use of any means to palliate a handicap. Discrimination exists where such a distinction, exclusion or preference has the effect of nullifying or impairing such right. 10.1. No one may harass a person on the basis of any ground mentioned in section 10. (*In 2016, “gender identity or expression” was added to the Charter; **Discrimination based on “sexual orientation” has been prohibited since 1977; with that change, Québec became the first jurisdiction in the Americas larger than a city or county to prohibit anti-gay discrimination.) No Canadians values, you said, eh ?

@binncoin...you're TOTALLY wrong ! Never heard of Canadian Charter of Humans Rights (1982) (see Google) ? and Québec Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms (1975) (see Google) ? Québec Charter is quasi-constitutional bill of rights and human rights One of the most progressive Charters in the world. The Québec Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms is unique among Canadian (and North American) human rights documents in that it covers not only the fundamental (civil and political) human rights, but also a number of important social and economic rights. The protections contained in the charter are inspired by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights + the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights + the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (more to come)

When the Supreme Court ruled that Hawaiians are a racial group and not a native Hawaiian group and therefore not either a nearest kinship group or a Native American group, the justices did not scour the internet. They used the Constitution to make that determination. If throwing the law at a racial group is as you put it throwing crap, then I agree. I see it as a just reward for all the crap-ola Hawaiians threw at native Hawaiians. I stand with the Supreme Court and the native Hawaiian, not phonies, whether a cartoon mouse or a cartoon Hawaiian deluded into thinking they are native Hawaiians.

Boom there is it. Mythman scouring the internet on a daily basis waiting breathlessly for the first opportunity to throw his crap at Hawaiians. What a sad and pathetic life to lead. Put down the Haterade brother, it's a sunny day in Hawaii.

Mmm; reads like a groupie's psalm. Don't get me wrong, I've been lucky enough to have seen U2 many, many times from small venues (Elmo, Massey) to large stadium blowouts (yada) and have been mightily impressed. One of the shows (right after 9/11) had production that was so emotive and emoting that I was asking myself '...what if this was to get into the wrong hands and be used for the darkside?' Well, now we know. And it spite of all that, it's politics as usual getting worse. At least, as Ms. Lederman's review shows, you feel pretty good walking out of the show........

Here's a start: While Morrisseau painted on birch bark initially, the media of Woodland style tends to be western, such as acrylic, gouache, or watercolor paints on paper, wood panels, or canvas.

Really??? I'd have thought the Woodlands School was unique in its use of images and colours. One can certainly identify it with great ease. I don't know any other art like it. If you do, please enlighten us.

Obama is, at heart, a national community organizer - that is and was his roots in Chicago. He applied what he knew and experienced and was elected repeatedly in Illinois and nationally. Guess you can describe that as populist but he successfully transitioned his populism to governing and national leadership.

The existing law is being changed. Re-read the link to the actual law. The stuff about exceptions for this or that person are going away. They are in [brackets that look like this]. https://olis.leg.state.or.us/liz/2017R1/Downloads/MeasureDocument/HB2597/Introduced What is left is the paragraph 2) that I have now posted twice. The reason for the change are two Oregon Court of Appeals cases; one that reversed a conviction where a woman was holding her cell phone but the police officer couldn't prove she was talking on it or texting with it. This law change eliminates the 'talking or texting' requirement. You hold it while in the car and you are guilty. The other was an accident case where a call came in 5 seconds before the accident. State v. Rabanales-Ramos, 273 Or App 228 (2015), Leonard v. Moran Foods, Inc., 269 Or App 112 (2015), http://bodyfeltmount.com/news/oregon-court-of-appeals-rules-on-driver-cell-phone-use/

Possibly, but that's not how I'm reading it, motleycrew. It seems the intent of the proposed law is to ban use of a mobile electronic device hands-free or not except under certain circumstances and by certain categories of people. Think of it this way they could have easily simply banned hand-texting on a mobile electronic device and hand holding a cellphone while speaking and left it at that. Perhaps someone else can chime in and clarify the proposed law for us.

BMracek says, "including those union donations that come off each and every union member without them even knowing about it." BCTF teachers are union members. The TF donates to no political party. Teachers themselves might, of their own choice, but not the head office.
4
"But it has to insist on a complete cleanup of a political ecosystem that wouldn’t be allowed to exist in Uzbekistan, let alone Canada." A bit over the top Gary. Maybe you should do a little fact checking before naming your alternatives. I agree that things need to change on the donation front, including those union donations that come off each and every union member without them even knowing about it. That's not corruption. That's just plain old theft. And while I'm at it...you're going to have to show a link between the amount of money parties spend and the number of seats they win. It's votes that count, not dollars.

We may never know. Instead of doing everything by the book, the fire investigators decided who was guilty and then worked to prove their theory. Unfortunately this means that they may have missed evidence that could have lead to the true cause.

What if a person's genetics make them white, but they feel black?

You are confusing biological gender with psychological gender. What a person's biology / genetics say does not always equate to what that person feels to be their gender.

Since my original question to you was "Show me one article from Church Militant that criticizes the Pope. Just one." You clearly failed to answer my question or provide proof. I did not change the subject, I have been going back and forth with Neko and Kag regarding the above article that clearly states CM is not authentically Catholic. The only thing that can be perceived by liberal Catholics as mean spirited on that site would be their stance on same sex marriage and acts. Neko and Kag have falsely stated that CM is pro Russia, that Fatima Crusader is pro Russia, and I merely pointed out that they agree with Russia's stance on those subjects above mentioned. CM, Fr. Gruner, Cardinal Burke and the Fatima Crusader are simply PRO- Roman Catholic and it's teachings. This nonsense about Trump and Russia needs to end, now it falsely has attached itself to traditional Catholic views and beliefs. Good luck trying to censor us by that failing tactic.
10
Really, Ebes? You are proven wrong so you change the subject to something else. Same sex marriage was the original topic?

We have already planned and INVESTED $8 billion plus of our Federal, State, City tax money in the metro project. Now the State legislature and the anti-metro people want to stop financing the project. Ending the metro at Middle Street, would lower ridership, end the Federal funding of the project, and turn the project into an inefficient and incomplete transit network. You are throwing away all the effort, time, planning, design, construction and money. More cars and vehicles will be added to our freeways and roadways, increasing the congestion, accidents and delays on the Leeward side of Oahu. People needing to get between their homes, businesses, schools and jobs between Ala Moana Center and out to Kapolei would not have an efficient, safe, quick and comfortable means of transit. The affordable housing and affordable housing built and being built along the 20 mile metro line and around the 21 metro stations would not be possible. Result: more homelessness & people leaving. A WASTE!
