That has nothing to do with being a social conservative which means being cold-hearted and clinging to old ways. I think you know what "social conservative" means. Anyway, did your kupuna teach you not to show compassion but be ruthless and unsympathetic in order to be a stickler for law and order? Pono does not mean being indifferent in face of inhuman acts by the government. If your kupuna did teach you to be indifferent to sufferings, then she was not a good person, I am sorry to say.
What is it with Republicans, aka right wingers, so lacking in compassion and empathy and using the laws to deprive a family of a harmless father and husband? | 6 | Your mindset is locked in concrete...it is not about Ortiz and all the Ortiz's of the world. It's about a law that "you" were a part of it's passage per your elected representative. What you confusing in this whole debate is not about breaking a law, but it is a request for "compassion." The law cannot be swayed by emotional responses, or this world would be in total chaos. A plea for compassion from the citizens of this country would be appropriately considered by ??? to suspend the law in this one case??? Can you see the 'stampede" coming in a cloud of dust?

If you are so attached to the language of markets - think of civic activity and activism as making wise consumer choices. Their are thousands of services that are needed but can never be "commercially viable." Oh...let's see law enforcement is just one that comes to mind. Building and maintaining public roads and highways. Hundreds of forms of art would simply disappear if we relied solely on "commercial viability." Shoot - having kids is financially "un-sustainable" but we do it anyway!

is not a problem for the USA. (speaking of the metric system when will Canada finally get around to adopting metric in a practical sense? Or are you going to try to tell me you don't know how tall you are in feet and inches or how much you weigh in pounds?)

5,342,494 | [0, 0, 0, 0] | Excellent post !
After the Vienamese war our high tech plant hired on many Vietnamese boat people and refugees. Did they sit aound and whine about their horrible experiences ?
NOT !! They were some of the best line operators we had, hard working and concientious. There was no whinging and certainly no blame game or feeling sorry for themselves. They integrated into our work teams and made a succes of their forced emigration. Many had true horror experiences compared to our FN .
My personal direct observation. And a role model .... | 4 | I'm puzzled about how the aboriginals treat this issue. To me, the key point on any trauma is recovery.
They are (sadly) not the first nor the last case of a group of people that were mistreated.
And there are lots of example of different groups of people that were victims of horrific acts (think the Holocaust, the Holodomor, the Armenian Genocide, the Killing Fields in Cambodia, among some of the most notable examples) and are surviving in different ways.
Constant lamentation and requests of apologies do not seem to be the characteristics of those who thrived afterwards. Rather, it looks like they took their destiny in their hands, and made a better life for themselves.
The victim attitude of the aboriginals is doing a huge disservice to their children. | [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0] | [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0] | [45454484, 45599028, 45588938, 45491654, 45366913] |

Most of the NAFTA/WTO trade tribunal outcomes favorable to Canada relied on there being little if any demonstrated damage to US interests, not that no subsidy had been provided. Now if only the dairy, poultry and egg cartels can be eliminated. These are also legitimate areas of subsidy complaint for the US and it's too bad Canadian consumers on their own couldn't get them eliminated mostly because of the lobby abilities these industries have in Ottawa. More transfers of consumer/taxpayer funds into private pockets this time by restrictive supply mechanisms. Do Americans have similar systems? Yes in oil, gas, farming and other areas and all sustained by lobby groups as is the case here.

Convective is mostly up through the plume (usually accompanied with particles, creating smoke). Radiative (meaning similar to the sun's rays) is usually outward from the flames, with most of it ending up in a quasi-horizontal pathway. Conductive is directly back to the burning surface or to any adjoining material (the tanker truck, in this case, for example). All three have a downward component that is a small fraction (generally less than 10%) of the overall heat release of the flame. What the train passengers felt would be many multiple times what the bridge was receiving.
As a result of that natural phenomenon, you can get melting of a surface (similar to candles melting...or the asphalt in this case), but wouldn't get enough energy to cause spalling of concrete or structural loss in steel.

Hopefully, instead of making suggestion through innuendo about me you would like to address Mason's comments which was the subject of my initial post.

And if you read all the off leash areas permitted in Anchorage you would note that many contain trails for hikers, bikers, and walkers where one might see Moose. And there are countless areas out of Anchorage and outside of city limits where dogs do not have to be in a leash.

I checked the leash law again at http://www.muni.org/Departments/health/Admin/animal_control/Pages/leash.aspx The last paragraph makes it clear that voice control only applies in certain circumstances: "All three of the above criteria must be met in order for a pet to legitimately be off-leash in public. Examples of allowed activities may include dog agility trials, retriever training, and throwing/catching a Frisbee. The code doesn't allow for off-leash dog walking unless the pet is in a designated off-leash dog park space." What isn't legal is dogs loose on our multi-use trails.

If you're determined to take another shot at this, find something in Bernardin's work where he posits the moral equivalency of all life-related issues. As you know, he explicitly excludes that understanding of the consistent ethic.

Religion, that is any and all religions, are based upon faith, and are both provable, and unprovable, at the same time, because said faith unto one side or the other determines the veracity of the argument.
The Religion of Climate Change, or Global Warming is just that, and that is based upon Faith.
Unless you have access unto a time machine that can take you into the future, and observe, first hand, and able to take concrete measurements, you have no more knowledge as to what the future brings, regarding your religion than I, or any of your own 'scientists, or scientific methods' do.
Therefore, you have 'faith' within your own ideology, within its religion.
You do not 'know' what shall happen within the future any more than I do, but you have 'faith' that it will.
Science is based upon fact as to what is proven currently, not upon what may, or may not occur within the future, because no one can see the future. | 4 | Oh boy, where to start?

NCR indeed does that, as we can see with its recent crusade on the finances of the K of C.
Therefore there's no grounds to make a moral appeal that it's somehow wrong for us to ask what NCR is paying its employees.
As for my salary, it isn't tied to donations, nor is it tied to appeals tied to religious belief. However, the employees at NCR receive income that is directly tied to appeals for donations, and also directly tied to Catholicism.
In my view, this means that NCR is beholden to be straight with its readership and tell them how much it is paying its employees.
Maybe some of these employees are being paid jack, and others are being paid huge six figure salaries.

Sur-prise, sur-prise, sur-prise! | 5 | Kids swimming lessons are subsidized through the Children's Fitness tax credit anyway so the Government does take responsibility to some degree. The impact of any kid that drowns, autistic or not, is utterly devastating to the parents and family so it is an issue. I suspect a $1200 a year tax credit for disabled kids to learn a life saving skill is a drop in the bucket when compared to what we spend on Canada Day fireworks and the endless money pit that is Bombardier. For parents that shell out 20K or more a year for autism therapy, the $1200 helps.
What is perhaps more apparent is your attitude and utter lack of compassion towards kids with autism. If I understand you correctly, you feel that teaching a kid with ASD how to swim is not worth a penny of taxpayers money because it's a pet project that doesn't matter and "socialism fails".

Dec. 2015: Trump explicitly called for “a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States.
Jan 2016: when asked if he wanted to rethink his "comments about banning Muslims from entering the country." his his answer was "No."
Jun 2015: "I called for a ban after San Bernardino [ref Dec 15 above] and was met with great scorn and anger. But now ... many are saying that I was right to do so. And although the pause is temporary, we must find out what is going on. We have to do it," he said. "It will be lifted, this ban, when and as a nation we're in a position to properly and perfectly screen these people coming into our country."
Rudy Guliani was quoted regarding Trump's request to write "ban" that wasn't a "ban" - that would pass muster in the courts.
It is against this background noise the courts are interpreting the present intent of the Ban again 6 (vastly Muslim) nations -- and why many, several judges included see it indeed as a Muslim Ban. | 10 | It's a travel ban not a Muslim ban like Trump is being accused of. | [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0] | [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0] | [45598378, 45440506, 45589137, 45465124, 45333173] |
