Trump doesn't need no damn intelligence...he's already smart! Said so himself.

this article can't be correct roger Goodell told me why I wasn't watching. it was because of the election. im not sure why im not watching this year because roger hasnt told me yet.

So what? What if a guy from NJ hacked into the DNC email server and sent the emails to WikiLeaks? What if the guy/gal was from Romania, Uruguay or Fiji? It doesn't matter where the hacker came from. What matters is that the DNC was dumb enough not to protect their data. And if you are not smart enough to protect your data, it can get stolen. And it's your problem, not a national security issue. Geez,

We should have at least a portion of our property tax reflect the density. Single family homes with two to four people sitting on a lot should pay some higher amount compared to someone in a 500 sq ft. high rise.

Exactly, what country automatically excludes 70% of their population because they don't speak two languages. One would think qualifications needed would be more than that.

who has custody of this child?

Pretty convenient that there was no recording of Wynne

BOOYAH! We won! I'm proud to say I've participated in the efforts to stop this mine since 2011. I've seen what coal mines did to render lakes sterile where I grew up in Missouri. Very pretty lakes with clear blue water. Very DEAD lakes with no fish. We have, for the time being at any rate, preserved the largest remaining King Salmon spawning ground in the state. We were supposed to sacrifice this to put money in a bunch of TEXANS' pockets? Right...

Wait a minute, Hillary is the bon vide anticipated candidate of her party. If she is unacceptable to so much of the American public, what does that say about the Democratic party? Trump is the wildcard. He shoots his mouth off. He says what he thinks and refuses to kowtow to the sacred cows. Guys like Gerson who are in the Establishment party, do not like Trump because he raises issues and asks questions the Establishment party does not want asked. For example, Trump finds some equivalence between killing children with bombs and with chemical weapons. The former is what we do. The latter is what others do. Both end up with dead children so why are the methods seen as so different. For Trump to challenge the difference between the methods means we might be forced to reconsider killing babies with bombs. The Establishment party would never like to be inconvenienced by having citizens question their bombing activities.

I know, right? Back in 1970, the so-called experts said we only had 5 years to fix the planet or we would be homeless.

Putin wants to recall you back home to mother Russia. pssst!, keep it a secret.

I think it's great these Gamg members are committed to kill each other. Just think, if they would actually kill each other, the Gang problem could take care of itself.

Sorry Cassy but the list wasn't given it was stolen. I trust that even a Liberal can understand the difference. I fully expect and hope that those who stole it are prosecuted as well as the NFA for accepting and possessing stolen property

Michael T, Most people accept and ask for forgiveness without blaming someone else for their wrong doing. Don't you think it is so untruthful/cowardice of Catholic clergies and their aids always blame someone else for their sins or point to others wrong doing instead? "Let us hope that a reorganized SNAP or some new org of another name emerges that will work for the good of victims and be helpful to the Church in addressing the problems. Must not be angry all the time." Sure what to be angry all the time for, it just the clergies raped children, ruins children's/their families' lives or children kill themselves! Every parent knows instantly what to do with the rapist! Why is it that CI clergy claim that they do not know what to do? Is it really a sane person to pass the rapist around and around for thirty years to you?

"If ... else remains equal ..." Everything else doesn't remain equal. "So unless you can raise prices ..." Yes, that's one thing you can do.

Anchorage still occupies the #5 spot for crime in Alaska, Wasilla is still ahead at #4.

I tell men, you can't touch me there, you're not my Uncle!

Wow, just wow to this piece. Aside from wholly having its priorities wrong and taking life backwards, this 'argument' is so incredibly regressive. What will this author argue next?? Coming soon from the author: why we must mandate that all women must wear veils because not wearing veils means men might look, peek, ogle or stare at women!

Eli, I think the lofty, aspirational concepts are good. But they are long term. And because of that, the very argument often claimed against the use of military ("the end justifies the means") needs to be reviewed against the concepts put forth in that article. Like it or not, peacemaking of the type described in the article takes time. And in that time, people will most certainly die. When a nut case like Assad starts gassing his people, I'm pretty sure the parents in those cities aren't gonna sit there, comfortably knowing that peace is coming, and the lives of their children have become the means to that end. They deserve action now, to give their kids a chance to live and see that peace. It's easy to be against something (say bombing) in favor of a greater good. But sometimes a precise and controlled action CAN buy time. For that reason, I think it needs to be considered. The world appeased Hitler for far too long. Sometimes evil arises in a form that demands action now...

Chelsea, please check your grammar - "it's" is a contraction of "it is".

And that's the best YOU can come up with? LOL!

They do love to talk, deliver not so much.

just quit baseball and smoke all the pakalolo you like

Didn't Thunder Mountain lose to Kenai ??

Sounds more like the Antifascists are the real fascists...hey Antifa, have you suppressed opposing speech yet today? Attacked those you disagree with? Burned any buildings or cars?Those fools are so stupid they actually think they are espousing Americans traits... Definition of fascism 1 often capitalized : a political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition

Indeed. No critic of this deal has ever been able to articulate what would be a preferable outcome and a means of getting to there. Saying you want a "better deal" is akin to insisting you want "magical unicorns that fart sprinkles".

Cattle ranchers grazing on public lands do pay rent. Not enough, but they do pay. Clive Bundy not withstanding, it isn't free.

"to violate longstanding policies about not taking overt steps in a case so soon before an election." Why is that? To protect crooks until after the election? And which elections are they referring to? Presidential or State and local? Policy is not law and is subject to change and interpretation.

Bitumen is not tar. It may look like tar but it is no more tar than a whale is a fish. It is probably fruitless to try to explain that to you.

"Apparently he also develops ads for the Denver Post disguised as a letter to the editor." Yep. Either that, or he's using Letters to the Editor as a way to display his sample wares and drum up business.

Cherry this is the county giving the finger to the unions proposal and implimenting the terms the county has been pushing.

John Elway dithered. The 49ers wanted a fourth- or fifth-round pick. Elway wanted to give a sixth or seventh. He ended up making the Sanchez trade for the lesser pick.

"Mr. Macron also hopes to prove to other European leaders, particularly in Germany, that France is serious about economic reform. That’s the only way he can build support for his call for more European integration, which includes creating a kind of eurozone government with a finance minister to co-ordinate fiscal policy." So these are the globalist marching orders Marcon has received from his old Rothschild instructors. Sounds like they may have bet on the wrong horse. Thats OK though, the French love eating horses.

While you're writing away the next writer comes along and finds the absence of bear poop, and soon, only Denali Park will show you animals. Happens in just several years.

Hold the phone! Our roads and highways that were never properly funded in the first place that we continue to expand and create but haven't raised taxes for are more underfunded now? Weird!

I agree with Gen. Dallaire, but there are some weak spots in his argument and in many arguments about Khadr. One is that it is quite possible he did not throw the grenade that killed the American soldier; his wounds when he was found were severe, he was under a pile of rubble and he was unarmed. The other is that if as a 15 year old he killed someone in a fight in Canada, he would be treated as a young offender and would have served far less time than he has. At the same time, Dallaire is quite right to point out that he was controlled by a manipulative and abusive father. It isn't realistic to think that given the environment he was in -- surrounded by Al Queada fighters -- that getting out of the situation was remotely possible. He's never had anything like a fair trial; it is time for those who unload such vitriol at him to stop reacting emotionally and look at the facts of the case.

Is this obscene military build-up to fight ISIS, or militarize Amerika and become king trump?

Many do. Have been for years. Some would come up for free donuts if offered. Take the PFD away and watch folks leave.

Countering Buddhist extremism? Catholic extremism? Amish extremism? If only there was a list of extremist violence from those religions -- but there's not. However, the same cannot be said of Muslim extremism. http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/attacks/attacks.aspx?Yr=Last30 One way to look at the victims of these violent attacks is that they are martyrs. To ignore their deaths is to suggest they died in vain. That so many are shown the gigantic amount of evidence of Muslim extremism and respond by saying it doesn't exist, and those who say it exists are "bigots"......it's quite a strange phenomena of our times.

and add in Qc

Try researching the issue.

Did you lie on your resume?.. Cause, she did. And, when caught, she blamed her most hated enemy... How's that for integrity of a person defining Canadian foreign policy?

Mind you things may be different on Halloween.

Wow- new owners and already fresh, diverse opinions that are NOT from the Washington Post or New York Times! I applaud Christine Flowers' unmasking of 3rd wave feminism and Leftist identity politics has made for itself-- largely fake campus "rape culture," perpetuated largely by campus feminist groups. After the 'Rolling Stone' falsifed its campus rape story, coupled with the numerous examples that Flowers brings up, society has slowly started to realize the harm this kind of faux victimhood thinking is doing to the next generation of youth. Yes, there are many examples of sexual assault- both from males and females- but to say "rapists and perpetual rapists are everywhere, out there in the ether!" Is not helpful to anyone, and this 3rd wave feminist thinking is toxic to everyone, including their own children: . http://www.dailywire.com/news/18590/monster-bigoted-feminist-writer-shames-her-amanda-prestigiacomo

The city must have seen something on the video the public did not.

In a free society such as ours, the burden of proof for imposing restrictions lies with the person or agency imposing the restrictions. Trump has not presented any credible evidence that the banned countries impose a risk to national security that justifies banning all citizens from those countries. The President does not and should not have the power to randomly ban travel from any country that he chooses...this is not a dictatorship. Yet, anyway. If you need more information, look it up. Reading the legal arguments and judgments for the previous ban might be a good place to start. And if you need more information about previous US experience with prejudicial travel and immigration bans that affected many local families, look up Yellow Peril.

Wow. So much for the theory of aligning managements goals to those of the share holders at RBC. Only one of the three people mentioned above from RBC thinks that the bank is worth investing in. Go figure.

Would you say the action was as bad as murder? I bet I could provoke you to violence. Would it be my fault or yours?

My People, My people, calm down now. There is huge crisis going on with people killing one another in the greater village of Anchorage along with two moose killed for the shear pleasure of killing them. The guy who shot the tatonka was caught and will be punished for his actions. Can we say the same for the people in the village of Anchorage? Have all of you ADN Commenters tracked down who killed the two moose? I know some of the murderers there have been caught, what about the other murdes that haven't been solved? The person who was arrested didn't turn himself in, the other villagers turned him in. Think about that before you start your hate mongering about the wonderful people who occupy those villages.

The Supreme Court said that rich people can spend money. They did not say that the money could be spent on donations to politicians with no restrictions. It's a fine line, one that you're conveniently overlooking...as expected.

How old are you, if I may ask? You sounds to me about 15 in spiritual age. You have figured all out and you are ready to save everyone including, ' the current regime in Rome' from this 'heterodoxy'! Who told you all these? It is often a sign of teenagers who knows it all without a doubt! So are you all out to start 'Luciano' Catholic religion? You are not hanging around some 'cult guru' are you? Come back in ten years and let us know how your 'crusade' work is progressing!

Carvin has spent too much time in the ivory tower and never bothered to step outside her safe space., putting a ridiculous amount of faith in the official CIA , Homeland Security narrative. If she bothered to do some real work on going beyond the fake story getting the real story she would not write this tripe. Its not hard to question their credibility when the history is thee to see one false hood and political subterfuge after another year after year around the globe. .

Margaret's conservative elitist world doesn't include inclusiveness; the white collar upper middle class is quite an exclusive club. In fact, the new inclusiveness trend of the young has hit a stone wall in the elitism of the Establishment. Democracy has suffered a backlash and devolved into scapegoatocracy. Elitists feed their narcissism and increase their power by making life more difficult for the multitude of wannabees. If everyone and anyone could become a lawyer, doctor, accountant, columnist, CEO, psychiatrist or newspaper columnist, the value of that exclusive coveted upper middle class club would be diminished. Thus the subtle weeding out of the weak, vulnerable, unfortunate, expendable and "deplorable".

Whenever we make something legal , it sends out the message for all to hear that it's ok for you . It doesn't matter what's in a home--potato chips and cookies--or pot--the more there is , the more kids will get into it. The true costs of pot use is high . We already have many parents in this town who don't feed they're kids before sending them to school -- forcing taxpayers to cover for them . Parents will blow family food money on pot as long as they can get away with it. We can't stop adults from doing what they want. If your ok with people being allowed to choose pot---what about coke , heroin and other drugs ? Where do we draw the line if it's about choice ? We know alcohol is the worst . We know pot robs people of incentive to do well in life. We know if pot is used all the time by young people it can lower they're IQ forever Are we better off with more messed up Alaskan's or less ? People need to look within and ask what's wrong if they can't deal with life without drugs.

Chinese President talked about housing: " It is a place to live in". Canadian prime minister and BC premier talk about housing:" market economy, demand and supply, equity, retirement plan", without any words about home or family. Thank you Clark and Trudou from BC realtors.

I say yes but you say no. I say life and you say death.

Lying slut slut slut, wants money now

Jesuits are. Of course, the next question is whether they are Catholics.

I never even wrote that post Bob.

It's got nothing to do with luck; follow the money.

He's slowing down. He must be so busy working that he has a lot of time on his hands (one of his actual quotes from yesterday). This nation is in deep deep trouble with this guy in the Oval Office.

Most are to blind to see it or too embarrassed to admit it. Shame.

You hit the nail square on the head and pounded that sucker flat to the wood.

Just reporting the facts, son. That y o u can't comprehend them is your problem.

what is racist? I was calling out a strange statement about Ireland.

To answer your first question, no you don't understand it correctly. Care to try again?

This puts a new slant to the issue.

Typical Repube answer xbt! Isn't it awfully strange how every single one that's either resigning or quitting or getting fired just happens to be a Repube??? Hmmmmm what are the odds of that???

Gentleman's bet that Ms. Taylor's counter claims are successful and Mueller's claims are dismissed; and he will be ordered to pay Ms. Taylor's attorney fees and costs.

Shap-Eye-Ro has shown he's the master of running a last place team that draws 15,000 a game. That's his goal in Toronto. Give the guy a chance.

What is wrong with Isaac Choy? His judgements about the possessions of his homeless neighbors are way off base. He ought to keep thoughts like these to himself. Embarrassing!

You want to judge Hillary because her husband cheated on her? OK. I can sort of get that - but Trump admittedly cheated on all of his wives and trades them in for newer models when he decides they aren't pretty/young enough. Can you honestly say that Hillary has showed conduct worse than that by staying married or by believing her husband that the accusers are lying? I think this just affirms what the author was saying - that many Trump supporters will stay that way no matter what, maybe because we as humans don't like to admit when we are wrong.

"during September of 2016, a decision was made by the CRD to build a sewage treatment plant at McLoughlin Point to service the seven core municipalities of Victoria. Construction started April of this year, and the plant will be fully operational with tertiary treatment by 2020. Although there were rumblings of community advocacy on this issue as early as the 60s, if we look at the organized campaign that started in 2004, it took 16 years to see this campaign through to the end and to finally stop the practice of discharging 150 million liters (or approx. 40 million gallons) of untreated sewage effluent daily into the coastal waters that surround Vancouver Island and make up the northern border of the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State." https://www.surfrider.org/coastal-blog/entry/the-first-sewage-treatment-plant-in-victoria-british-columbia-is-under-cons

It's always the same (((people))). Every time.

People in the past did have those concerns but allowed legal immigration until 1927. Legal immigration was not restarted again until the mid 60's. Large numbers of illegal immigrants did not begin until the mid 70's. There was some illegal immigration between 1927 and the mid 60's but not in the numbers we are seeing now. The question is a simple one. Do we have laws that govern immigration to this country or do we not? Is legal immigration allowed at this time? The answer to both is yes. So why is the democratic party so hot and bothered to champion those who choose to disregard our laws and enter this country illegally? Why are republicans/conservatives and many democrats portrayed as racists when the only mention they make is of illegal immigrants, criminals who have broken our immigration law? That designation has nothing to do with race and everything to do with people who enter this nation illegally. If anyone did this in regard to any other law, it would be aiding and abetting.

Nothing like a wet behind the ears group of group thinkers. Especially "millennials" with no real life experience to speak of.... I love being told what to do how to do it when to do it where to live how much more in taxes I'll pay, by relative "children" and those who've never held a job outside of being law students. Like Stanley Chang, still living w/parents :-)

Yes, I was kidding.

I hope leaves and grass clippings are given more prominence - those food groups have been ignored for too long.

Okay to challenge it but if some visiting terrorist blows up our state capital, hotel or parade, don't blame it on Trump. I didn't vote for him but he knows America is headed towards disaster will these radicals who said they are planning exactly that.

Yes, radio of the mind was a much more imaginative and involved pastime. Like you, I feel the EWEB site needs to be fully explored as the new CH. I want to know why it WOULDN'T work. And I've often heard from some on the Council it would be desirable to connect downtown with the river front. Seems like it would go a long way toward accomplishing that. Perhaps rerouting street access may be necessary, but there are no "cheap" alternatives. As the editorial says - let's learn from past mistakes and get on with it. I don't like being negative or over critical. I realize that the council positions are basically volunteer in nature (like the legislature) and I appreciate people's willingness to take it on.

What Trump has done is given voice to people who had no outlet. They had no outlet because the squealing press wouldn't give them one and now they are reacting to the loss of their dominance. Trump is not what we are accustomed to seeing in a politician. But what the never-trumpers are reacting to is the envelope rather than the core which is what the Trump supporters are connected to. While his critics spend their time on personality quirks and tweets that he tortures them with, those who voted for Trump are fixed on his actions/accomplishments. Trump has his opposition in disarray, focused on the trivial while he actually spends his time on the substantial.

Trumptard alert !

Youtube is my go-to for figuring things out.... and my Dewalt cordless is a delight.

Sadly, Mel from Eckville, you have not been hitting you mark for a very long time now. Perhaps it's time you tried a different shtick from that of "stereotypical lefty".

Uh, go double check that timeline of yours and get back to me... yes he was... and nope, don't even work in the DOE (like you the "insider").

Whose fault is it then? Are the responsible politicians not a reflection of the voters?

Gun deaths ? Oh smug holier than thou Canadian it was Canada where Muslims were killed in a mosque in Quebec in Justin's Canada not in Trump's USA so much for smugness

No surprise here. McCain once again showing his globalist loyalties keeping alive the Obamacare fascist agenda.

The assumptions underlying the research I've seen are wide of the mark.

Yes he should run for president!!!

You got that right!

The Liberals are just proving their reputation as a tax-and-spend government. God alone knows why people voted them in.

Dictionary definition: Militia 1.(a) org., any military force... Either you are too ignorant or stupid to read the first dictionary definition. The only "Well-regulated Militia" legally existing in the U.S. is those under the Department of Defense. Your definition only applies to those white supremacist private militia created by your fellow racists and bigots under Posse Comitatus idiocy roaming the nation to intimidate government employees and scared citizens. The current examples sitting in jail in Oregon. A "Well-regulated Militia" has been in existence for most of the history of the nation without any need for civilian weaponry to defend it. The only need for civilian weapons is for hunting or protection; therefore all should be licensed and registered with full background checks before ownership like any other threat to other citizens in the wrong hands.

Fundamentally destroyed their lives? What regulations exactly interfere with your day-to-day living? And how dare he be responsible for more than 60,000 more Alaskans having access to health care that did not before? It's true that it took awhile to turn the Great Recession around, global economic collapse is a b&tch, but we've had over 70 consecutive months of job growth. And we are pretty much out of the two unfunded wars that W started, which caused the debt to explode, and the budget deficit is much smaller than when Obama took office. Deficits cause debt. Republican presidents starting with Reagan almost without exception raise the deficit, Dems lower it.

The fact of the matter is that you do not have any idea that they claim for office expenses in their home, have huge deductions for their car and home expenses, i.e. heating, cooling, storage of files, telephone and internet costs etc .; in addition they use family members as office workers, and they have the ability not only to use the RRSP and TFSA mechanisms to save tax payments, but they also benefit from deferring income by placing it in passive investment accounts whereby money can be withdrawn as dividends, taxed at lower levels. And by the way they can claim no salary but withdraw corporate dividends taxed at half the rate the average middle class person pays. OOPS forgot how even their car insurance and licence plates and entertainment expenses are corporate deductions. The average person simply does not know what is going on and the small business person, while complaining about the horrendous tax system and public expenditures never divulge their own benefits.

"hadn't been out hunting it..." he said! but he was at a far enough distance away that he couldn't identify it, so the first thing that entered his feeble mind was... KILL IT!!!! why was he carrying a rifle large enough to kill a buffalo? afraid of bear? they are asleep. why did he shoot it from a distance that he couldn't tell what he was shooting at? why did he shoot at all? if he is so ignorant to do something like this, he probably would have taken a shot at a human being also.

No, it is not correct. The Court told him that he had to act in accordance with law - in particular the relevant sections of the Constitution, the supreme law of our land. He chose to ignore both the law and the Court. As a result, he was charged with and convicted of contempt.

Saullie: You again? Oh please stop making things up. My commenting on your preaching and lack of hockey insights has nothing to do with the a Holy Sacrament or religion on here. Once again, as you always do, you are distorting the truth for your own self-preservation. I never went there, you brought it up sport. Besides how do you know, I don't know anything 'bout Holy Mass? Again, Stop making things up!
