5,422,612 | [0, 0, 0, 0] | I agree that there's a lot to presume about the young people: had they carried or used bear spray, travelled together, were traveling at all (or maybe had stopped), were making their presence known loudly, or did they do all the things you shouldn't do in bear country. That ER Campgrounds is notorious. Did the youths know that? And do the people in this community expect one another to be responsible when they are in bear country. I do expect it. To me, litigation is the furthest thing relevant to this topic. It will not protect a community in this particular situation regarding wild animals. | 4 | I don't expect litigation to save anyone. I see it as a sadly plausible response if the state neglects to remove a bear that has attacked five people. How much more evidence is needed to determine that the bear is, in fact, aggressive? What's the magic number of people to be charged?
I think there is a lot of presumptions being made about the kids in the woods. Or the officers who had to discharge their fire arms in self defense.

Furthermore, the report, assassinates the theory that 'student fees' keep the AD afloat.

5,423,812 | [0, 0, 0, 0] | The recent situation I was talking about-the Coptic Christians on the bus who were murdered, some where asked if they were Christian, to renounce Jesus as God (Muslims believe He is a prophet only) and they refused and were shot. You over think things and seem to get off track and miss the point.
Self denial involves being willing to let go of our own ideas and opinions and humbly deferring to the wisdom of God, as well as not over indulging ourselves in pleasures and too many worldly, material things. And that barely scratches the surface of the doctrine of self-denial. | 4 | Trying again. Per your remark, "Jesus Christ asks us to deny ourselves but not to deny Him." There's a time and a place for public affirmations of belief. Yeah, people are being killed because they are Christian, but I don't think the religion requires people to die for it. Matthew 10:33 (re denying) applies to normal social situations like our conversation, not a murderous scene with ignorant attackers. Matthew 7:6 is a caution about 'tossing our pearls' lest we be "torn to pieces." It is absolutely nobody's business what you believe, so you are not required to tell them and jeopardize yourself. Jesus asks Peter, 'will you really die for me' (Jn 13:38), but Jesus does not demand Peter's death. Later, Jesus gives Peter a chance to affirm loyalty (Jn 21:15). No retribution. Jesus was hardly standing up for himself at his trials, and he was not confronting his accusers (James 5:6). Sometimes the less said the better, although it didn't save him, Jesus did not oppose or antagonize them. | [0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0] | [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0] | [45450604, 45438681, 45597947, 45394434, 45438070] |

And to be clear, while I never shared his Communist views, I've long admired him for his great writing, sincere radicalism, intelligence, courage, love of Russia, sense of adventure, idealism, bravery, and true love of humanity, especially workers, peasants and the down and out. Most of all he was a Romanticist and an Oregonian.
Books: Reed's three great books, to me, are:
"Adventures of a Young Man: Short stories from life" Very sensitive perceptive stories of his youth and young adulthood, including some from Portland.
"Insurgent Mexico" He rode with Pancho Villa, loved their romantic revolution, but realized they had no plan or organization to put their dreams into reality.
"Ten Days that shook the World" The book that made him famous, considered one of the great histories of the Russian revolution, for he felt the Communists had the plan the Mexicans had lacked.

Handing out money in Québec is called "pandering".
Handing out money elsewhere is called "economic stimulus",
"transfer or equalization payments" or "Canada's Economic Action Plan”.
If another province negotiates some deal on government responsibilities
it's called power sharing.
If Québec does it it's called "special status" or "privilege".
...ABOUT "transfer or equalization payments"
Primo; It’s Québécois money in Canadian dollars
Secondo: Every province (including Alberta) gets transfer payments
from Ottawa.

You're doing what so many posters on this Lib forum like to do, and that is "deflecting". Not to mention the "glittering generality" mode of propaganda, which is one of the several propaganda methods we learn about in school - and which we see constantly on the DP fora -, and another of which is "bandwagoning", as you so astutely mention. "We all hate Trump, don't we?" - a great example of "bandwagoning", as I call it.
You should be more careful in your bandwagoning when criticizing polling methods, Deb, since "we all know" (glittering generality) that the Dems/Libs love them some "push polling" methods to obtain their (your) desired polling results.

She may have trouble adjusting to a lower income. Even cutting out pension plan contributions, child care, TFSA savings, she still has expenses close to $4,000.

Why do you non-science/engineer types always grab wrong data and present it as facts? Seriously.
Because, a typical base is about 30x50x20 (ft), which ~1000 cubic yards. A cubic yard is about 2 tons, so, that means that it is 2000 tons, NOT 30,000 tons. It is not even CLOSE so that you put.
SO, lets continue doing the REAL math on this.
Now, you assume that coal is what is used to heat the cement, yet, that is wrong. Electricity is all that is required. As such, the REAL issue is what is the grid doing.
1) http://blogs.ei.columbia.edu/2012/05/09/emissions-from-the-cement-industry/
"Producing a ton of cement requires 4.7 million BTU of energy, equivalent to about 400 pounds of coal, and generates nearly a ton of CO2. "
2) but, our grid, is NOT 100% coal. It is currently less than 30% coal, but we will go with 30.
SO, 400 lbs x .30 x 2000 = 240,000 LBs of coal, or 120 tons.

Not good. In fact, weak.
However, with more playing time, a desire to fit in and a mean, brutish disposition, Kasim Edebali just might get to the quarterback nine times, maybe more, this year alone.
He looked good for the Saints.
As for Shaquille Barrett and Shane Ray, homegrown and fat fed on the turf at The House of the Horse, they better start looking over their shoulders.
Ray says no one can stop him for an entire game. He, Ray says, can earn a sack in any game at any time.
Yeah, that's why you only had eight sacks in 16 games last season in Denver's forgettable cameo appearance in the NFL.
Ray either played at half-speed or only played half-heartedly. Either way, Ray is clearly a half-time player, kinda like CJ Anderson, a notorious slacker.

In a minefield of explosive talent, Barrett is the dud.

How about because it`s the grown-up thing to do, like most citizens who pay some manner of broad-based tax. Why some think they are above paying their way can only be through greed and selfishness. If it were otherwise other legislatures would have done away with taxes decades ago. They didn`t. They realize it`s a needed tool to have in the fiscal box to repair our infrastructure etc even in down times. Those who argue against a broad-based tax are only doing the oil companies a favor by keeping them in the catbird seat over our financial and fiscal health.. it`s not a coincidence that two Senators are Conoco management employees. And it took them both to pass SB21 or it would have failed in the Senate. Had they recused themselves it would have failed. And where has ethics reform gone?

I follow anthropological matters in this area and there is no theory suggesting that. There is some debate as to whether indigenous people arrived up to 15 000 years ago as may suggest or up to 40 000 years ago as some new theories posit.
Let us also not pretend that all of the indigenous communities got along with each other in North and South America. There are suggestions that there were wars between communities before European settlers arrived. The challenge for anthropologists is that there is no recorded history because, apart from Mayans, the many other communities were illiterate and used stories. So, if one indigenous community wiped out another before Europeans arrived, it would largely have gone unnoticed. | [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0] | [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0] | [45535369, 45404169, 45388025, 45465124, 45573532] |

"Threats, attacks and thrown chairs: DPS works to reduce early childhood suspensions"

That sounds like a good solution for high performers in low performing schools. I have a neighbor who teaches at a very low performing grade school in Aurora and he's explained to me the family situations many of his kids come from and the problems his students have. It's very sad, and turns classrooms into daycare.

Keep in mind that we want all citizens to have a photo ID so that they can do things such as drink, or buy a gun, cash a check, open a banking account, etc.
So, the dems should quit fighting this, and instead, address the 2 real issues:
1) lack of ability to get IDs for all. Dems should work on that, including, requiring that states that have required photo IDs to vote should then pay for anybody who asks.
2) ALL BALLOTS absolutely should require a photo ID. I agree with the GOP that it is possible for cheating. Of course, the cheating is not the in-person polling, but the theft and submission of a mail-in ballot without a true vetting.

As a result, I suggest the following, for starters, if you are interested in better understanding this idea: 1) Go to the Civil Beat Politics FB page and use my name to search it for all content I have posted since that page was created early last year, I believe; and 2) go to basicincome.org. | 6 | Mr, Kropar: No one is suggesting a guaranteed basic income--based on citizenship, rather than some increasingly inadequate combination of wages, welfare, and/or charity--is intended to spoil people and/or eliminate any human "need" for work, which I think is as much or more an historical, cultural, political, and economic social "norm", which was gradually institutionalized after the Protestant Reformation (beginning in 1517) and the subsequent rise of capitalism (and the Protestant Work Ethic) as it gradually replaced long-standing medieval feudalism (based on the Divine Right of Kings) and the system of economic mercantilism that preceded the growing dominance of capitalism --as it is an "innate" feature of the human psyche, which you and many other may think has been, and always will be, part of human "nature."
