A.D.E.E.D. had a H.R.F.P that went A.M.P.? W.T.F.? It was the fault of A.A.I.U.K.? What I want to know is whose idea was it to put the caps lock right above the shift key?


It is possible that is what is happening.  Look at the gradually increasing employment levels for women versus men.


Why did you spoil an otherwise excellent comment with a selfie up vote?  Cred shred.


Banker, excellent post!


"(See that little straw man argument? Is it any more valid than yours? I doubt you will answer truthfully)"
Apparently you have answered your own question. See how pre-conceived notions work?
My intention was to point out the spin of TCampbell24, nothing more.
"We still don't know if the story is true; "
No, but you want to believe it it, which guides your thought processes.
BTW- blaming me for making the work of the press more difficult is ludicrous. And you on the other hand, except every written word as gospel, I suppose? Censorship and liberals objecting to those with opposing views at times with violence, are clearly violating freedom of speech rights. Suspicion and finger pointing is rampant on both sides of the aisle. "Undisclosed sources" are at an all time high with accusations that never seem to pan out. Sorry, I see no reason to jump on board with any of them.


The Junction City Mental Health hospital mainly holds people deemed criminally insane. I don't think people want these folks in residential housing facilities or, god forbid, released.


Perhaps this latest case is a Muslim?  lol  But perhaps he had stopped at a bar on the way to the rally and was just drunk?

Yes much of white nationalism should fall under terrorism. Disgusting that anyone would go for such rubbish.  Not surprising though since so many voted for the town butcher to perform brain surgery.


If you don't live in Grant County, Pidgeon your condescending comment is just exactly what the folks in Grant County expect from folks in Lame County.


You know what "real tax fairness" is? No tax. How have you people become so brainwashed to think a tax needs to be instituted NOW! It's almost like some are hysterical about it. Know one thing: one it is here, we will never be able to get rid of it because there are too many Americans, carpetbaggers (such as the one-termer), and the socialist tools up here that are inured to the idea that everyone needs to be taxed.


Bismark my dear Bismark is a heavily populated area (With 71,167 people, Bismarck is the 2nd most populated city in the state of North Dakota) that the pipeline would have to cross numerous streams, and roadways.  The tribe's water intake is 70 miles away from this spot.
Lastly, is it because a lot of Black people live in Bismark, or the big American Indian population there?


Jemele Hill revisited the Trump family history. Fred Trump had Donald seek ways to remove blacks from his apartment building. Anyone watching Donald placing blame "on both sides" in the Charlottesville mayhem would reach the conclusion Trump is bigoted.


...that would not have been there if...


It's ironic people will say it's American to protest but un American to protest their protest.  You're right, they have every right to do what ever they want.  I have every right to disagree and turn my back to their protest, it's called democracy.


In recent years polling has transformed from data analysis into "push polling."  With "push polling," pollsters are aligned politically, and present polls to influence public opinion, not to reflect it.  As a result shocking election surprises are becoming much more frequent, including the Brexit result, election of Donald Trump, and Christy Clark's 2013 majority in BC, even though pollsters then claimed that the NDP had a 18% advantage.


I believe people should always pay to be rescued from something they chose to do.  If one is injured and taken to an ER, he is charged for that, right?  Why is this any different?  Actions have consequences.  In this country, many are entitled and think everything should be "free."


Sorry but THAT is an over simplistic statement of obvious ignorance!!! Please see my reply to Oregongal 2

To understand HOW you ended up this ignorant (that does NOT mean stupid)  please see:

Would not a Con Con give the citizens an opportunity to establish initiative, referendum and recall?


watching alaska die wrote:  "Regular citizens often lose their jobs in Alaska when the price of oil falls."

Care to prove that?  Got some numbers?  Don't forget to compare "oil patch" job loss numbers to that of state employees.  I think you're confusing lobbyists with state employees - what about all the folks at the libraries, museums or lugging tourists around on our ferries?  What is a "regular citizen"  -  those folks you claim rely on oil production for their life blood.   I go to the airport (ANC) and see all the folks that work in the oil patch going home to places like OK, CA, WA, AZ, OH and so forth.  Show some proof or just keep crying us a river :)


Just remember "fair" doesn't always mean "equal". It means "equitable". Based on risks, contribution etc.


good work, hpd, on identifying the suspects and effecting a quick and safe arrest.


Sounds like you're describing the Catholic teachings as-they-really-are.   As Catholics, to miss even one mass is to incur mortal sin.

Just yesterday I heard Radio Mother say to a caller that to attend a Baptist church is "to leave Christ."  Did she make that up?  Nope, it's clearly a part of official church teachings.

So before you diss the Mormons, be sure you know what Catholicism is and the many stone walls it has established.

True religion is always a surrender of the will, which means a surrender to the group.  This always involves sacrifice and standards.  True religion isn't "like, whatever."

As for the Mormons themselves, every one I've ever met has impressed me as sincere and well-integrated persons.

And as for my original point, by taking their religion seriously, the Mormons have a lot to teach Catholics about how to truly engage young people.


It's warming! no, wait, it's cooling. It's the hottest it's ever been. Wait, it cold like 1999 but it's warming and becoming hotter. It'll only get hotter and the polar bears are dying. Except their not because it's cold like it was 18 years ago. Everyone got it? Now stop driving and tear down your home. Only then can we stop the warming and become cooler like 1999


Some of these measures are not bad IF they are reciprocol and consistent across the agreement. And if the US drops it's subsidies to farmers or we can tariff to the extent of their subsidies, then it is hard to argue with dropping marketing boards. On huge problem, the effective subsidy given to US aircraft and defense firms via all that military spending they do and the way they dictate interoperability. The question is, does Trump want fair trade or just US dominance at the expense of fairness? Odds are the latter, but if he can be convinced of the former, a reasonable negotiated agreement is possible under these parameters.


Liberals are the laughing stock in all this. The issue was about illegal settlements not about a two-states solution...


They fail to follow rules of the road and endanger everyone around them. That's why I can't stand them, anyway.


Please tell me this is a joke...


Kinder Morgan wouldn't have gone to market this week trying to raise 1.75B unless they have some level of commitment that this project is going to be backed by the Feds. That being said, I don't trust JT as far as I can throw him ever since his cynical about face on electoral reform...


If I were Trump, after watching the Comey debacle during the election, the FBI certainly wouldn't be very high on my 'trusted advisors' list.

If I were Trump (and the majority of Democrats who denied every CIA report of WMD pre-Iraq War) looking back over 50 years of CIA assassination attempts, regime changes, 9/11 failures, etc. etc. I don't find them on my 'trusted advisors' list either.

In both cases, I see professional bureaucrats trying to protect their own rice bowls and those of their associates in the other 12? 14? 15? intelligence organizations who we have 'no need to know' about, but just need to send money to support.


Trump is very, very upset that Mueller is investigating his business connections to Russia. He's hiding something dirty.


More like time to remove the Senate President.   This was so pilau.


So I'll mark you down in the column of only supporting the cartoonish version of troops, got it.


Ack! Way too much fresh water.


He is an amazing Dr and people such as myself need him so those praying for jail time enjoy your health because trying to keep as much of the money you work your butt off for  is something everyone should be able to do. And why are people sonl worried about how much he earns? You could too if you spent half your life in school paying a dang fortune to learn how to save lives . I for one need him as do many others I've had the privilege to share stories with during long infusions . Long daily ordeals where he come and sits and visits with you every chance he gets between patients.  I'll bet most of those who comment have never filed Thier taxes perfectly.  And the charges are alleged not proven by the way.  This a kind  caring man aND I pray I'll be able to continue to treat with him.  He spares no exoense to keep us comfortable . And as for costsale mentioned...I see my insurance eobs and the bulk of the cost is the medications , the actual physician charges are normal standard fees .


Art….San Fran has built vertical and is as seismic as Alaska. I think you're a genius, but you can still  look at a picture of the Seattle and San Fran skylines  with Google to help clarify the error in your statement.  In fact LA just topped out with the tallest building in the West.


Conservatives do not believe the election was stolen because unlike liberals, who are easily stampeded off of any left leaning, group-think, ideological cliff, we come to our conclusions, and votes, based on independent thought and common sense reasoning.
BTW, Trump is not a true conservative, but at least we stopped the democrats; for now.


I am 100% behind the Public Transit Amount, but I think it should apply only to those making under $50,000 per year.


National Enquirer Paid to Kill Story of Playboy Model's Affair with Donald Trump

"A new report claims that owners of the tabloid newspaper National Enquirer paid a former Playboy model $150,000 in order to kill her story about an affair she had with Donald Trump.

Karen McDougal, the magazine’s Playmate of the Year for 1998, claimed to friends that she had a consensual romantic relationship with the 70-year-old businessman in 2006 — while he was married to his current wife Melania, according to the Wall Street Journal.

The affair lasted between 10 months to a year — and included a trip to the 2006 Miss Universe pageant where she was seated in the front row, her friend told the Journal."

"the Enquirer pulled what is known in the industry as a “catch and kill” on the story – buying the rights to the McDougal’s story forever without obliging to publish it"

Geez,
he's a Democrat/Liberal friend. If he ever voted in the elections he'd had voted for a Democrat. A Trojan Horse entering the US via Chucky's Lottery system migration.
Ige/Chin/Watson fights for terrorists/bad operatives to travel to the US and invites ALL unknown's to Hawaii with open arms and Aloha.
Don't tell, Hawaii won't ask.


Really? Every nation wealthy enough that we'd want to live there, every major trading nation, every developed democracy, every nation with high health statistics, they have all determined that health care is too important to be left to the free market. Nations as diverse as Ireland, Israel, Japan, Australia, France, Canada and Chile. So obviously, free market competition is not the "only way to go".


Unfortunately Bob, it is a zero sum game to politicians and their corporate donors.

There's not enough jobs to go around and flooding this country with immigrants (legal or illegal) is going to lead to a bad outcome.

In a perfect world where politicians actually cared about regular people and actually cared about the country, I would agree 100% with you.  Sadly, we live in a world (and a country) where the politicians are out to increase corporate profits at the expense of everyone else.  And immigration is one of the ways they accomplish that goal.


They used to be honest and say that women cannot be ordained because women are inferior to men. See, for example, Aquinas' Summa Theologica,  Supplement, q39 art 1, on the question, "Whether the female sex is an impediment to receiving Orders?" He says, "Since it is not possible in the female sex to signify eminence of degree, for a woman is in the state of subjection, it follows that she cannot receive the sacrament of Orders". That, FC, is sexism in a nutshell. Now, they say that this argument is invalid, but in fact, it is still trotted out. They call it "complementarity" and "ontological differences", but it's still just "women are inferior to men".

"Liberal, secular, atheistic humanism" has nothing to do with it. It's sexism, pure and simple. As I said, they used to be open about it, now they are just as sexist, but pretend they aren't.


They also work for those of us that don't want it in our neighborhoods. Sorry if you can't always have everything you want. We don't get everything we want either.Get over it. Sorry to burst your bubble but not everyone thinks like you or wants what you want.  How about a little tolerance for those that don't agree with you. You expect us to tolerate what you want.  You may have won the vote but it was no by much. That means that almost half of the State doesn't agree with you. You got what you wanted now leave those of us that don't want it alone.


Nothing will happen now until the results of next month's election are known.

My money is on Mayor Nenshi. Ken King is about as maladroit as it gets when it comes to playing politics in the full glare of an election campaign.


Golf Digest has even dubbed Trump "Golfer in Chief."

Your definition of a "normal healthy male" is a bit different than mine.


LEAFS MAKE THE PLAYOFFS GREAT AGAIN!!!


How did you do, you ask?  As a troll, A+.


Another hit piece on Trump...how refreshing.


SSBNs on deterrent patrols are meant to be untraceable, no surprise that they wouldn't necessarily detect each other. Up until that incident the forces involved were likely just counting on the likelihood of a collision as being nil. There has been some limited open source reporting that US-UK-France have since de-conflicted their nuclear deterrent operations by designating large patrol areas.


If you are angry with Trump then send a message by not vacationing in the USA, avoiding business travel there and not purchasing US made products or agricultural produce.  Stop cross border shopping immediately.
The message will be clearly delivered to him within 60 days. Whining about him online is useless.


Mr. Scaramucci will soon discover what House and Senate have learned, that they simply cannot escape President Trump's presence and actions, let alone his Tweets.


A "construction audit" on HART encompasses scope of the construction process from solicitation of bids to final payment. Not just looking for cost recoveries or overbilling but also provide process improvement recommendations for the project management team.
The job of a construction audit is to provide independent and objective assurance that HART money is handled properly.


Typical liberal and probably Liberal drivel. Kingwell sees Trump and even Karl Rove as a threat to rational thought, but Justin Trudeau's endless parade of lies: the Harper government went into defict even before the 2008-09 recession, it only balanced the budget in election years, and most outrageously, it campaigned on a headscarf ban in the 2015 election, don't disturb him at all.


The USA has, "by far," the world's largest cyber-army, and, years ago, clumsily made public that the USA government was developing "tools" and had full plans and intentions to hire people to use fake puppet accounts to "manipulate social media," to shill the USA government's viewpoints, and to discredit its opponents.

Homeland security is a joke. This woman is not a threat to our country...  this is an example of the folly of Trump and the Republican Party which has no respect for refugees, visitors, and immigrants.


Better a fickle friend than the alternative.


I agree, who needs daylight anywhere at 11:00 pm?


Of course there are better ones. But who wants to endure the character assassination and groveling for money that getting elected demands?


Law and Order in South Africa or Zimbabwe? What is that? There is no such thing.


I watched these ceremonies and all I can say is that I hope nobody from other countries was watching. Horrible, embarrassing and try hard. Topped off with a PM who can't name all our provinces and territories .


It's deaths per kilowatt of energy produced - so the statistics I quote would not change if nuclear were more widespread.  NASA has also proven that nuclear has saved millions of lives since 1970 - due to decreased air pollution - and millions more live will be saved if we more widely adopt nuclear.  As for cancers, in the worst nuclear disaster ever - Chernobyl - the UN estimates that only 49 people died - mainly those poor souls who were sent to cleanup high-level waste with nothing but a shovel and a lead blanket.  The UN also estimates that up to 4,000 people have died or will die prematurely.  I'm not minimizing this tragedy.  However, even under this worst-case scenario, the damage was limited.

Workers also fall off of wind turbines and roofs installing wind turbines and die or are hurt - do these tragedies not count in your view?

Though, I'm guessing - despite nearly all evidence to the contrary - you'll still be irrationally afraid of nuclear.  "Wow" indeed ...


"(BTW - you named George Bush twice; personal vendetta or referring to the father and the son ...)."

Personal vendetta. I like broccoli.

If Putin did everything he's accused of, he must have invented (and secretly uses) a time-stretching machine 24 hours simply not enough. Must be 168, or similar in a day's work.


Good one, muckamuck.  The little guy/gal is getting sillier by the minute.  Must be all the Kool-aid.


If you find drugs and abusing animals fun, you apparently don't get it.  Your comparisons are extremely lacking.

"We want to see budget cuts," said Curtis Thayer, the head of the chamber. If the price of oil rises enough, he added: "We're out of a problem."

Yea, if, if, if...and if I could get Scarlett Johannson to hang out with me for a weekend she'd know how cool I was and we'd be an item...

Good grief, this is example number 2,118 of why conservatives cannot govern. Yea, lets just wait around and do nothing until oil prices rise...great plan you got there, chamber.

And Alaska can do without greedy con artists like small business owner Athena Fulton. If her aversion to paying a small tax to maintain basic services is so great, hopefully she'll fold up shop and move someplace with lower taxes...which leaves her the option of only three other states. Of course none of them have a PFD program so maybe Athena can start a campaign that says if government doesn't gives her free money every year it means they think small-business jobs don't matter and resource development is bad.


Bill and Hillary Clinton’s 2015 tax return shows that while they did have a nearly $700,000 capital loss carried over from a prior year, they took a deduction of only $3,000 for that loss. The first page also confirms that the Clintons received a $3,000 deduction for their capital loss and the returns show they paid $3,236,975 in federal income taxes that year. The Clintons paid a 35.7% tax rate: $40 million total taxes over the last 7 years.

This is far different than Donald Trump's $916 million loss in 1995 that enables him to pay no taxes for 18 years. In 1995, while Trump was hemorrhaging money, the economy under President Clinton was booming. The stock market rose 33.5%.

The real issue here is not his taxes. The real issue is this self-described smart businessman destroyed almost a BILLION dollars of wealth because he is incompetent. And he brought many others down with him including employees, subcontractors and investors. Trump is a freeloading deadbeat pure and simple.


I think it's perfectly fine to keep doing what you're doing! Just remember that actions speak louder than words. So as long as you as a person behave in a way that's agreeable with your community, you and your choice of words should be appreciated.


Cowards.


And yet no plans for rapid transit over the new Massey Bridge.


Let me explain as simply as I  can, so you can understand. Not everyone will want to use rail and there will always be people who will want or need to use cars. Take a sales representative who is on the road all day. Rail is an alternative for people who can leave the car at home until they get home and avoid sitting in traffic for hours. As for jobs, if someone is making $80,000 or $100,000 a year in town and you think it's easy to find a job like that anywhere else on Oahu? It's okay for someone making minimum wage or possibly mid range wage, but for the professionals it's not a realistic option. You make it sound like it's no problem when it is a problem. Don't you think that everyone would want to work closer to where they live if they could? Of course. It just makes sense that if you only have to travel 15 minutes for a job versus driving one or more hours you would take the job closer to home, if everything was equal.


the em investigation quotes blumenthal as asking hillary if 'the admin had decided on a change of regime in libya yet'. and then gaddhafi was overthrown. and i know from a woman who's son was in italy that the soldiers were told to 'stand down' instead of intervening to save the americans. we know clinton lied about the cause of the attack (the man that had the anti-moslim video enraged the maniacs), and i believe the men were killed because they knew too much.


Good grief...so when I worked in a nursing home....this was not allowed. Patients having sex come on! This isn't about age, or anything else. Elderly gentleman, who have mental and physical issues, are not thinking rationally, same with women. This is all fine for now, until the day comes a frisky elderly man thinks a lady is interested and he attempts to get with her, and Gramma has a fit and calls the family and sues the place for all they are worth.  Not a place for a nursing home. Assisted living, thats different,  As clearly most of those folks are capable of living by themselves to a degree. Nursing home, you do not, your in there because you cannot think the way you used too, and or you have disabilities that prevent you from doing so. Instead of promoting this, think about your elderly mother or grandmother or Father. You find out they are being allowed to sleep with the men in the place while the nurses giggle and close the door. Not cool, and not what you do with the elderly.


How is the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) “nonpartisan”...? Contradiction in terms....?


This incident and its reporting are leaving me with more questions than ansewrs. Unless I missed something, there is no mention of when the tests were run. It appears it was in Nome after the race, but how long after? This article states "high levels" of the drug were found (and high  is not defined). If so, was the drug administered just before the test (and after the race), or was it administered earlier in a very high dose to begin with? In the first case it would not have affected the dogs' performance, and in the second it would multiply the chance and severity of side effects (which don't seem to have appeared).
In any case I'm not sure Tramadol would be anyone's first choice for a "perfomance enhancing" drug, and drugs, KNOWING the dogs will be tested?


We the people of Ontario have failed ourselves and future generations when we elected the most incompetent politicians in Canadian history. We failed to see the complete folly of the Green Energy Act. We failed see the corruption. We failed see that their reckless spending is about to bankrupt us. We failed to see that social engineering merely masks our true problems driving industry away at break neck speed. Sorry Canada for our stupidity.


The US does not need or want more Hillary Clinton - hence the defeat in the last election.  The US needs something new and, in the absence of something both new and good, the voters went with new only and elected Trump.

I find Ms Renzetti's articles to be a 50-50 proposition most of the time but with this piece she basically encapsulated why so many people feel so disenfranchised and ignored.


Not before the oil companies pay their share, dude!


Thank you, Register Guard for bringing us stories like this.  They remind me how lucky I am to not live in Eugene.


I think a full day rental of a 2-axle truck is something like 100 bucks a day (at least, that's about what I rented it for when I moved last year). Full sized vans are even cheaper.


I hate to break this to you Mel, but there are no such things as witch's, at least in the modern cultural sense. You will never find one.


Hi again Bud:
Well, old buddy, the end is near, the feds have finally started to edge into the mortgage insurance restrictions they should have done a decade or more ago.  They need to go further, eventually killing government-backed insurance, taxing vacancies, limiting or taxing foreign buyers, etc., but it's a start.  Interest rates/mortgage rates are finally moving up, all of which will return us to sanity.  Yet, here you are, still defending the bubble.  Sorry if the final popping will cost you money, but I am sure you have taken enough off the table to be fine.  For the country, and especially the young, this will be very good.  Rich old folks already get more CPP than they have paid for, and free OAS.  They don't ALSO need to receive 2, 3 or 4 x the true value of their house from a young couple.    It is very disappointing that the seemingly otherwise reasonable Ms. Clark is so dense on this topic, or so completely in the back pocket of developers.  Dumbest policy in history!!


He wasn't dead at 8PM last night, when Jimbo wrote that comment.


I use the statewide voter database most workdays. Electoral campaigns study them intently and have done so for decades, because Alaska has sold that database for decades, as I imagine most states do, because lawmakers need (or want) their state's voter data for their reelection campaigns. This is nothing new. I remember being surprised when I first learned the state sold their dB, but now it seems normal. You can buy the fishing license dB from the state, too. For at least 13 yrs that I know of, geeks have been adding Big Data to the voter lists they bought from states. Corporations also use enhanced voter dBs--to sell stuff, ideas or plans. If I wanted to build a pipeline near you, I'd want to know your and your neighbors' party affiliation and voting frequency...to help me tailor the mailer I'm going to send to you. Such use is nothing new. What's new is social media and its ubiquitous voluntary secession of privacy. Was Zuckerberg right 1/10/10: privacy is dead; long live data?


I am sure that his experience in the Marine Corps will be valuable for this assignment.


No I am not..I am saying that the test for gender can't ignore a capacity for reproduction.

In the face of the very very very small numbers of hermaphroditic people (which some addlepates use to try to undo the binary genders) a penetrating and clarifying "test" is to ask of the two apparent "sexes" present, which is producing functioning sperm and which is producing functioning eggs.

There's NEVER been a case where a person with some hermaphroditic properties produces BOTH.

And so, from an intellectual point of view, this is a useful classifying question,  And it quiets all but the true addlepates.


My unnamed sources tell me that your investigation will result in revealing Democrat collusion with Russia, and that any meetings with Republicans were arranged by the Democrats and their accomplices in the Kremlin.

This court WILL treat Track Palin differently - because Governor Palin appointed the judge - David R. Wallace - in early 2009. Why do you think there were so many delays, resets, and continuances with the Criminal Court? How else could being Remanded Into Custody just be - disappeared? The Palin's KNEW this judge was at this court, and they'd get special treatment for Track there.


No surprises...Justin is simply built for success.  He's excelled in every endeavor he's undertaken including his school work, believe he was a 4.0 student as well.  He has been blessed with an amazing family and support network including amazing Coaches and Teaches who absolutely loaded with quality, high integrity, hard working people.   With all that he has going for him,  he is genuinely a great kid  who doesn't has his nose in the air and no, I'm not related, just proud as heck of this amazing young man who will excel in something more important than football which is life....though he is an amazing FB player.

Funny. Science just codifies the universe around us, but offers no explanation as to why? Admittedly religion is a collection of stories, but at least religion tries to help us get in touch with our spirituality - and God help us if we lose that.


Justice or all cheating wives. Of course husbands who cheat will still be treated as monsters. She cheated and even in death the courts allow her to cheat him again.

Yes, comedy shows are right up your level of intelligence 214. Do you lead your life and make decisions based on them.


They ignored our laws by sneaking in to the country.  Why should we expect that they would be so eager to adopt the laws regarding identification and traffic rules?


BMW is right on. Tesla already outsells the top of line BMW, Mercedes and Audi vehicles, and with the Model 3, threatens their entire offering.  That is why all of the leading car companies are accelerating  their plans to electrify their fleets. Electric charging is increasing available, with the number of charging stations rapidly expanding every year.  We have driven electric cars from Toronto to Florida for the last three years and have seen an explosion of charging station options, and typically only stop at every second or third high speed charging station along the way (the total charging time each day is around two hours).

Battery electric cars  are five times as energy efficient as gas, and three times as efficient as fuel cells. There can be no doubt that they are the way of the future.

it should be

No one expels LEGAL immigrants


CHARGE SICK PEOPLE MORE MONEY FOR HEALTH COVERAGE? The republicans have sunk so low as to be below ground. Guess that is where they have been, the past 8 years, or so. President Trump, draining the swamp will include MORE than just the liberals on the left. A good hard look, and swift kick, out the door is needed on the right, as well.


The favortism and bias towards Ganot is misplaced. SA said when lobbying to fire Nash that he should be fired for losing, even though Nash was a good man:
  "With the athletic department already cash-strapped, the obvious question from Hinshaw and Greenwood to Donovan is, "How can you afford to do it?"
   DONOVAN'S ANSWER is a simple question. "How can we afford NOT to do it?
   If UH were to keep Nash on, attendance revenue would not get better. It would get worse." So for Nash, losing and revenue were good reasons to fire him but not for Ganot.
"If he's done, as most of us expect, I'll miss Bob Nash the man and the legend. I won't miss the college head coach" And for Nash, his character wasn't important to being a head coach.


Handling jabs from gram:  She is just being gram;  she will get over it.  Do as suggested and don't let it weigh on you.


Dan and Cents, you probably have the most friendly administration,  to your concerns that you have witnessed in Alaska.If you don't know and don't act on it, you will lose out. Unless you are already lost out because you are over the hill and just want to whine about the past and and apply it to the present. Im over the hill so to speak, but I am inviting
 you to the fight for the future.


Time for Trudeau to go.  This is unacceptable.


We all need more adults in the room with Trump. I appreciate that you recognize there are folks in Trump's inner circle that would love to be somewhere else but are choosing to stay in order to be able to provide guidance to an outclassed and incompetent President.

The good General knows the true meaning of "keeping your enemy close".


Woo-hoo!!!  Best news I have heard in a while!  Praying this young man will prevail in his quest to (finally) achieve permanent resident status, as well. He has more than paid his debt to society and it is actually in the best interest of this country that he resume his role of being a great husband and a wonderful father and provider to his beautiful children without further delay.


0-5 49ers. I would leave too.


"I have zero financial interest in this project."

Bahahahahahaa. No one, and I mean no one, believes that.


Say what you will, Cassandra, but how will this end for the Liberals?


I can see what you mean by Pope Francis is actually undermining his own goal of making us believe there are real and important differences between male and female by putting down people who want to change their gender surgically because they feel that the opposite gender differences are ones they more comfortable with and this makes them feel they are in the wrong body of sorts.  If Pope Francis were to be willing to state there is no actual important difference other than the genders must have some physical differences to procreate then his critique of transgenders would be more sensible. His sexism makes him accidently more supportive of transgender's claim to have real reason to change their bodies.

That being said I have asked transgenders and when they explain why they feel they were born in the wrong gendered body, their answers always go back to false stereotypes.  Such as I am a man but I am a nurturer and emotional and creative or . . . .


This is one tough lady, anyway you look at it.


Congrats, at least in this post you didn't cry fascist and call for violence.


"Good luck finding corporate media that just reports the facts when it comes to Trump."

Oh, that is just too, too funny. Of course, where we should go for "the facts" about Trump is Breitbart or Infowars or, better yet, his Twitter feed, right, bav? I'm with you - why on earth should we believe the work of reporters who have their work rigorously fact-checked?


Your post just tells me that you still don't get it.  Of course celibacy has a lot to do with the sexual abuse crisis!  No wife of a priest who knew that another priest was abusing children would scream bloody murder both at her priest-husband and the local bishop...it would have ceased the moment it was identified.  Women would not have allowed the coverup from the beginning...many of the celibate male priest/bishops do not live in the real world as far as relationships are defined...and that includes the protection of children.  It may be unproven, but it is certainly likely and probably true.


Huawei spends loads on internal R & D efforts. It has a reputation of reverse-engineering foreign technologies from the get-go. Combined with cheap labour in China,it  makes companies like this a preferred supplier. $5 billion profit in the most current year!


No, Clapper lashed out at Trump first. The president is only responding to him.


He recovered and got most of his function back - one of the lucky ones.


It's no distortion. The article is real. Here is the source: https://www.leoweekly.com/2017/08/white-people/


I found a full story of this.  Turns out the dirt bag that "lost" Portis's money was a guy who worked for Stratton Oakmont...yanno, the bunch of crook wall street investors they made the movie The Wolf of Wall Street about.  The thief still lives in a multi million dollar mansion in Florida.

Can't say I blame Portis for how he feels.


Explain, when you have a few moments, how posting attacks on the Church's teachings and Catholics from the perspective of a total rejection of the Church's teachings in a purportedly Catholic venue is not trolling, and how it is not being disingenuous.

Father Reese presented a very thoughtful and thought-provoking idea, that the Church has a vital role in healing the nation.

How does attacks on the Church, the bishops, priests, and Catholics illuminate that idea?


When is a costume, or a participation in a festival, not a cultural expropriation? Is there any costume, or participation in any festival, that is not a cultural expropriation? Why stop at other racial, ethnic, language, or religious groupings? Ms. Renzetti does not provide any framework for answering these questions.

A 65 year old international traveler is invited by local people to dress up in their costumes. She feels uncomfortable. Is this cultural expropriation? A 13 year old birthday party centres on eight girls dressing up in 1980's fashion, and going out to eat together. Is this cultural expropriation? Is a man cross dressing in women's clothes cultural expropriation? Is miming or dressing up as harlequin cultural expropriation? A small boy love dressing up as a sailor. None of this is clear in Ms. Renzetti's fuzzy framework.

And, is dressing up as a dinosaur an expropriation of the interests of another species, or another statement of Humans at the top of the living scale?


CBC needs to be relegated to a world and local news agency. Keep that channel to appease the few who can't get their news elsewhere and scrap the rest of the money pit.

I'm offended they keep taking my money and would like it back.


when has he ever not given himself an A+?


Ah, poor Wavemaker, spouting off about things you know nothing about. Not that I have to, but let me fill you in on my world travels. My family staked in Chugiak in 1947 and has been there ever since. Sure, I grew up in teeny tiny Chugiak, but I've been to more countries than you could ever dream to visit. In my near decade in the Army, I was deployed twice to Iraq (06-07, 08-09) and Afghanistan once (11-12). I was stationed in Europe (the now closed Ledward Barracks in Schweinfurt, Germany) for 3 years, and while there traveled to more countries than you have fingers and toes. So before you show everyone what a buffoon you are, maybe, just maybe let go of your idiotic notion that everyone that grew up in a small town stays there.


General Mattis,  al-Qaeda terrorists are inspired by Islamic doctrine and history.  It is being taught in Mosques all over the world.  I don't appreciate you submitting to Muslims who would say telling the truth about the doctrine is blasphemy.  I voted for Trump to end this nonsense.


Click-bait or just lack of editorial oversight.


I'm old enough to remember when the Feds sprayed pot with Paraquat poison in a failed attempt to stop people from smoking pot. Now all of a sudden they care about our health!


I never said, and have never believed, that multi-story buildings necessarily degrade livability in a neighborhood. In fact, I've proposed them on several sites in the JWN.

What I do know, based on ample evidence, is that mindlessly increasing density can  have a major negative impact on sustainability and equitability.


Once legalized, cannabis will be a commercial product, which when sold legally, will have GST/HST, plus PST where applicable, plus, as in the case of alcohol and tobacco, an excise tax. Why is this so surprising?


I think you have it all wrong. The end result of Rosa Parks's courage -- and of the whole civil rights movement in general -- was not that from now on only black people could sit at the front of the bus, while the whites would be relegated to the back, but that  _anybody_  could sit anywhere they wanted to if a free seat was available. That's true "egalitarian society."  That's what MLK fought for, and that's what's morally right. Sending white people to the back of the bus -- or a concert venue -- is just as racist as it was to try to prevent Rosa Parks from sitting in the front, and white people have just as much right to REFUSE to move if ordered to do so as she did.


Reverting to second class will not change the structure of City government. It will still be the same Council-Manager government with the same City staff in the same positions.

Reverting to second class will not cause an election of a new City Council, despite what many people were told.  Under our WA Constitution, the people can only remove council members by recall, and this is not a recall vote.  So ultimately the State will not permit an election, because there will be no vacancies to fill.  So in January, the candidates elected this November will be seated with the remaining incumbents to serve out their full terms.

Reverting to second class will suspend the citizens' right to initiative and referendum. WA law only permits second class cities to hold advisory votes.  That is unquestionably a huge loss to the people.

I've been asking for a year, and I ask again: what are the *benefits* to the people?  What do you think you will change for the better?


We only need to think of Mr. Kadr and his $10 million dollar rights!


The police cant do much more than issue tickets for most crimes which is why they are so overwhelmed at the moment, they are just as frustrated as you are.  You want change, call your lawmakers in Juneau and have them repeal SB91, then you give the police what they need to lock these thugs up and not have to deal with them everyday.


This article looks mostly at economic factors, while neglecting how plain unpleasant the retail shopping experience has become at brick and mortar stores. The shelves are crowded with cheap Chinese junk. There are constant sales and discounts. Staff is unhelpful, or otherwise pressures you to buy service plans or apply for store credit. As for clothing, the same old recycled styles for years.

No wonder people would rather shop from the comfort of their sofas on a tablet or notebook. Shopping in person hasn't been exciting for years. In fact, it's totally exhausting for most of us. Good riddance.


While I partly agree with you, the UPX is going to have interesting by-products.

Weston is turning into a bedroom community with a spur of townhouse development surrounding Weston station. The St.Clair and Liberty Village stops that are part of Tory's Smart Track plan will most likely be serviced by UP. It's underused currently but has the potential to be highly used commuter rail. Amusingly, that would make getting to the airport more hassle than it's worth


He's 85.  He'll live the rest of his life sleeping on top of a giant pile of cash.  They should have tossed him 25 years ago and saved many women the humiliation of satisfying that fat pig or being fired.


So when an oke points an AK at you you're going to ask permission to unlock your one safe, remove your gun, unlock your second safe and find your ammo, load the weapon and then start a battle? Please!
And when your wife has her face shot off by some previously legal firearm, you're still happy with tens of thousands of legal firearms within an arms reach of criminals.
The number of crimes thwarted by private gun ownership vs the number of crimes committed by stolen private guns leaves your argument void.


No, that was Obama. All Obama did was talk and reduce military spending. Trump will take care of it.


Everyone needs to have a good read of the G+M article from late September about deteriorating access to gov't information. It is WORSE under Trudeau.
As if the numerous fiscal and policy failures weren't enough, the PM turns out to be more of a control thug than good ol' Steve, and that takes some doing!

 https://beta.theglobeandmail.com/news/politics/canadas-access-to-information-system-has-worsened-under-trudeau-government-report/article36407309/?ref=http://www.theglobeandmail.com&


In a democracy, highly trained MD's, Pediatricians, Specialists FRCPCs, Pediatric Psychiatrists and Family Physicians don't determine the laws, voters do.  Legalizing marijuana for recreational use was a clear part of the Liberal mandate for which they were elected.  The new legislation should allow people of majority age access to marijuana without restriction while educating them about the potential health risks.


So. How many of Trudeau's faithful Canadian Muslim citizens will stand up and fight antisemitism and racism with their Canadian Jewish citizens.


How true: You can't be charged with a hate crime for this you silly little man.

At worst,  you could be fired or your business could be harassed and sued into oblivion, but there's no way you can be charged with a hate crime.

Do try keeping some perspective.


I've worked all my life and never made it "rich," nor did I live on entitlements, Bradley.  Quick grasping at straws by blaming liberals.

I'd rather see the former House Speaker finish his life out in prison.  A lot of people that knew Hastert helped him cover up being a child sexual predator.  How sick is that?  Those same people sat by and said nothing while he oiled his way through Republican election after election, and then dared let him sit as House Speaker.


The news is late anyways!!!


If the only facts that you know regarding climate science is that the earth was much warmer some number of years ago, and that the worldwide climate fluctuates, please try and refrain from repeating it again. You know less than 1/10 of 1% of what there is to know on the subject, and parroting the most basic, and obvious facts while leaving out the other 99.9% of the story to try and prove your point does not make you look intelligent; quite the opposite actually.


I agree with your sentiment though. Leaving a dog is unforgivable. And in this case, taking a dog up that high without paying close attention to his condition, or being better prepared with booties - the owner should have taken greater care.


She's an amazing writer too. Just ask Michelle whose speeches Melania plagiarized.


anyone but Hawker


Well done lads, well done.


Or due to poor French language skills they went to locations where their employment prospects were better.  I was one of them. I was 12 years of age when my family moved to Montreal and left Quebec after high school.


And he doesn't seem to want many others to be free.


I am very clearly saying that interest rates are not driving the market despite what 90% of people (who don't understand mortgage rules at all) cling to in their arguments.


So, just another meaningless poll, that may or may not indicate something?


"These states are letting illegal aliens vote by the millions..."
Uh huh, sure they are.
Alt right fanfic is so predictable.


With a Democratic Party led by Governor Useless Ige, how can anyone expect ANY kind of coherent strategy for Hawaii, long or short term ?? The Democrats and Republicans in Hawaii are power hungry, self serving, selfish, morons who have failed in the private sector. AND they are expected to help Hawaii's business environment ?? CCccccmmmmmoooonnnn mmaaannnnnnn !!!


Yeah, that was a little creepy, him saying "you're about due for a lesson in humility." Actually not a little creepy, a LOT creepy.


Thanks Nathan for shinning the light into one of those dark corners of how the legislature conducts the "public's business".  My cynical view of this last week of the regular session is that none of these hearings matter.  Nobody's listening in Juneau and nobody cares; the deals are already made as to what will and won't pass.  The only real legislative crafting is on the budget and finance related issues; and the public will never see what is happening behind all those locked close doors.
Makes one wish for a state constitutional convention to set up a bunch of dedicated funds (like education in Texas) and narrow legislative discretion.  Pretty sure we can come up with a decision app that's smarter then these 60 "representatives" and a computer accounting system that has some integrity.  How about a legislative monitoring committee populated with only public members.  Give it the power of the pen.


Nah, the Packers look too much like Leilehua...


The judge said don't buy it, people should drive slow especialy on winter season.


He lied. Resignation is the only honourable recourse. He can be forgiven if he resigns. If he stays ,he is a lying politician and a blemish on the whole Canadian military. Do everyone and yourself a favour, RESIGN.


Please read the past financials for this company. They have always been very strong and if it were not for a run on the bank, they would still be rolling in dough.


Let's pay our fair share (2%)  and yes let's protect our borders and people and lets respect and appreciate our neighbors the USA.


Eff the America hating Donkeys!


Distilled down, yes, that's your argument.


Canada will not remain in any top spot given the free speech chill and progressively fascist approach to stifling descent and differing opinions on campuses.

Universities campuses in my day were teeming with thought, breaking ground, open forums for controversial topics to be disseminated and discussed.  Now, they are almost Orwellian places of group think, fearful of offending or being punished for not thinking the "correct progressive way".

Jordan Peterson is the perfect example.  The Trudeau government pulled his funding after he refused to talk the "right way".

Justins Canada is not a fun place.


We must tear down the walls which separate People of Faith from one another.
Share Worship and Communion.
Eliminate Authoritarianism.


You're uninformed. He hasn't ADOPTED Russia. We jerked his passport and left him with no options. He'd like to come home...


Based on the sketchy information presented so far by anyone, no one should rush to judgement about anything.  They are safe.  No one has said the plane crashed or not.  Obviously taking off from Lake Hood, the plane was on skis.  The Kenai has frozen lakes covered with snow to land on.  The plane ELT was activated.  It could have been automatic or manually activated.   Don't jump to conclusions!  Obviously the pilot, if they fly again, will have a better ELT but wait for facts before judgement.


I speak for the Canada that is tired of bending over backwards for one malcontent province constantly seeking a handout.  So if I don't speak for you, you are obviously part of the parasites sucking on the government teat.


Dunno.   Given the record of recidivism through our legal/incarceration system, it could be argued that system makes people worse and not better.


I never suggested otherwise.


Correct - our family voted liberal in the last election - not the next if these proposals go through.


Paid protesters are a reality.


And a lot more are wearing them today than they did a few years ago. So what?

I've never understood the notion that special clothing makes one holier or more suited for ministry.  Habits for religious sisters are basically nothing more than an exercise in nostalgia. Other than that, they essentially serve the same purpose as a burka.


I was speaking more broadly. You don't think customers would realize the benefits of CLFs without government coercion?


Is this news? Anybody who has been paying attention knows that Trump lies, or simply gets it wrong, more often than not.

If Trump or one of his minions says something the reasonable conclusion is that it is a deliberate lie, an exaggeration, totally out of context, or simply made up.

Great plan.


Maybe Russia should change its national motto.

Maybe to something like: "Land of macho untrustworthy cheaters and manipulators, from the buff athlete to the buff shirtless guy in the Kremlin".

Just more Reefer Madness nonsense!
Those who are really trying to keep kids safe would FIRST use their efforts to keep them away from booze, tobacco and prescription drugs. Data direct from the  CDC shows that tobacco, alcohol and prescription drugs are far more dangerous than cannabis and directly cause over 650,000 deaths per year in the US each and every year.  This plus another 21,000 traffic fatalities directly caused by alcohol and pharmaceutical drug intoxication. The numbers continues to increase annually.

US CDC Figures on numbers of deaths per year in the USA:

*   Prescription Drugs: 237,485 + 5000 traffic fatalities
*   Tobacco: 390,323
*   Alcohol: 88,013 + 16,000 traffic fatalities
*   Cocaine: 4,906
*   Heroin: 3,365
*   Aspirin: 466
*   Acetaminophen (Tylenol):  179
*   Marijuana: 0, none, not a single fatal overdose in all medical history and almost no traffic problems

So, which is safer?????


That Telford and Butts are pulling the PM puppet strings is very concerning.  Instead of running the country, they should be on trial for gross negligence in the financial destabilization of Ontario.  They have moved on from negatively impacting hydro bills to negatively impacting national democratic principles.


I know of people who don't bother talking regularly with their advisers. In those cases, it is the clients' fault for low service.


If, as it does in Saudi Arabia and several other countries actual enforced civil law, Shariah  law includes death for being a homosexual, that rape can only be proven with the testimony of four (4) male witnesses, that it also takes the testimony of two women to equal the testimony of one man, that women are forbidden to drive, that female sexual mutilation is authorized, that being stoned to death is the punishment for adultery, that a woman cannot be out in public without a male relative,  etc. then Sharia law is totally incompatible with my values.

It is also in conflict with the US Constitution.

It is barbaric.

And that law is enforced in Saudi Arabia and Iran and by ISIS.

These are 13th century barbarians and it is reflected in their legal code and beliefs.


Sand spits were stationary and permanent structures till the advent of global warming. Damned SUV’s.


No - there was never in all recorded history a time when people thought the earth was flat. Hell the ancient Greek philosopher Erastosthenes calculated the circumference of the globe - and got an answer that was extremely close to the official answer today !

> and it was indeed inquisitive 'scientists'
I spoke against intuitive not inquisitive. And scientists only got further on those points AFTER philosophers invented the scientific method. Science could not exist before it's method was invented.

>didn't study Philosophy at University
Yes that is pretty obvious. So stop spreading opinions about a subject you clearly know nothing about.

>Did you AJ?
Yes, I did, as part of a tripple-major in English Lit, Philosphy and Computer Science. Philosophy made me a far better programmer than compsci ever did.

> but certainly this does not mean I am not logical nor that those who 'studied' Philosophy a
Actually that's exactly what it means. Do you know the 6 laws of logic ? One of them ?


Lol actually our increasing GDP is on the energy sector. Without immigrants we could actually focus on the skilled training of our own citizens. Immigration is way out of control and I'm not including the out of control illegal immigration or refugees. Japan has been going down the tubes due to the fact that there a few years ahead of us in the poor interest rate decisions and monetary policy that we seem to be following suit. Don't kid yourself thinking immigrants are a net positive to our debt or GDP.


state workers may be inept and unproductive but they are grossly overpaid.


"I sometimes wondered about the Marijuana control board."
.
So when the ballot measure said "Will create a Marijuana control board,...." you did what, exactly?


Excellent! The regulations are stifling the economy and part of the reason that the economy under the 0bama administration was so stagnant.


Now that the Trudeau's can't cozy up with the communist Fidel, junior has found a better replacement the communist Chinese.  He is going to be bitten hard in the backside on this one if he doesn't finesse our relationship with the USA and China especially if the US gets into a trade and/or currency war with China.  Trump is spoiling for a fight with China.


I always get a laugh out of these deniers who constantly harp about all the grant money the scientists are getting. It's all these greedy scientists getting grants in the hundreds of thousands of dollars to run their labs and pay their research teams' salaries who are the rapacious ones. Not the multi-billion dollar fossil fuel companies and their obscenely wealthy CEO's and shareholders who are willing to put humanity at risk to line their pockets with even more ill-gained lucre.


What economic theory is this based on?  What about the inflationary pressures from paying higher and higher costs for goods that Matson will pass on to us Hawaii rsdents to pay for these super overpaid low tech union jobs!


The Liberal leader and party should make Weed day as a national holiday to celebrate their  commitment to weeds and drugs. They should have their family members joined them to smoke some joints in front of Parliament building on that day.


This is pathetic.  This old vote whore is using tax dollars to legally buy votes.  No money for doctors, but lots and lots for teachers.  Why are we doing this when there is a huge over supply of teachers and a declining demand for them.  Time for the taxpayers of Ontario to rise up and strike against the teachers and their unions.


This guy is going out like the true American hero he is.

That has to be the longest winning strike in the nation.


There is already a bill in the House to allow for universal reciprocity for CCW.  The short on this, is if you have a CCW in 1 state, then it is good in all 50.  I can see that getting passed pretty quickly

The ANC will not improve after Zuma, it will continue downhill, no one really competent amongst what we have now, and greed is rampant, law and order no longer exists, the future? very bleak for all.


"If they have it, I say, give them their money back. But, this one is a totally different issue."

I don't see it as a separate issue.  Either there is a valid draw or there isn't.  If it's a valid drawing, the winner is entitled to his money (and really to the additional portion he was denied due to the criminal activity).  If the drawing wasn't valid, than the other players would be entitled to a refund (presuming proof of purchase) and the winner should be required to return the jackpot.

From the perspective of the honest players, the draw was random.  No one  knew what the selected numbers were, and so their odds weren't actually any different.  They had just as much likelihood of winning as any other game.  That weighs toward considering it a valid drawing.  As I said below, I just find it interesting that these two groups have taken opposing positions.


BC Hydro does not have the widespread infrastructure of back up gas or coal power plants that would make Reservoir Hydro more usable in British Columbia. BC Hydro has also been importing and exporting power during Peak and low demand times for decades. It was one of the first Hydro Electric utilities to do this it does  this to  California all the time. The Tragic Truth of Ontario's energy disaster is that their feeble  costly Solutions are in fact increasing greenhouse gas emissions notably.


Does Trump have the right to renege on a deal the US Government made? Is breaking a promise to an ally really in the United States' interests? Especially, a minor deal like this? We're talking about 1,250 refugees  that after "extreme vetting" may be only a few hundred. That's a few thousandths of 1% of the US population. You help Australia out of this jam and you can call on Australia later when you need a favour.

This is just further proof that Trump can't see the big picture.


Justin is more like Harper than Scheer could ever be.


I too questioned the reasoning to shoot down a test missile because like you said, "It will only make matters worse." What to do with a rogue State?

Did he have any evidence for this view? Economic models? I'm not being snarky; I'm genuinely curious, but unfortunately don't have the time for the interview.


Importing workers should only be allowed when the unemployment rate in a given area is below a certain point.  Why are we paying welfare to able bodied adults and importing workers?  I know of local kids who would drive up to Denali to work for the week and drive home on the their days off, or take a bus.  I also met a J-1 visa worker in a restaurant in Anchorage.  He was very nice, but I wondered if a local college kid or other young person was now unemployed because of him.


Looked at their books, have you? You just don't seem to get the fact that this is a small market team. The Monfort's spending is well in line with any other small market team. And if you really want to split hairs, The Rockies are quick to point out that the money used to build the party deck came from a capital construction fund and from a pool of funds belonging to the team and the Denver Metropolitan Stadium District that came from Aramark and RTD. Economics 101..


Seems like states in the same region are the ones that would benefit more from cross-state coverage.  None of those states even border each other.  In fact it would be hard to pick 6 states more spread out from each other.  Kinda defeats the purpose.


Oh? Well, if that is true, why didn't the Trump lawyers put forward those cases as evidence of the need for the ban?


Dan:
Another point I find amusing is he equates Trump with the government, when Trump hasn't even been elected to office yet.

 While I haven't been a Trump supporter, and still think he will be a huge mistake for the GOP, one that may take years to repair, he does seem to instill a lot of fear in the other side, and for that very reason alone, I am going to enjoy the show, it's been a hoot so far, and has all the earmarks of putting any SNL skit to shame.


Nobody should be surprised. Earlier this week the WH implied no and by the end of the week the Head Fool goes with the exact opposite. Rule of Law Administration... Yea right. More red meat for his fan club. So much winning!!!


I think we know just who will be crushed in this collision.


What were those horrific things going on at the DNC? You mean the devastating emails from Podesta claiming that Chelsea Clinton was spoiled?


Montreal, the big collapse...again!


Hmmm ... you think the first Muslim ban "is still in the works?"  Actually, it's not.  The administration did not appeal.  Probably because they couldn't win the case.

What about Muslim ban # 2 in your mind makes it more likely to prevail?  Did you read the decision?  I'm betting no.


Liberal thinking

Best to actually read the article before commenting.  The moniker 'Little Potato' is irritating coming as it does from a much smaller potato than the leader of the country.


#FakePresident


Bill in particular sets the tone for the entire special privileged lawyer based political arena. Disbarred or not he remains a lawyer in thought and action. He didn't get the nickname Slick Willy for selling used cars.  He is an indictment to the political and legal systems.  And he is a terrible golfer!  Now we have to contend with shenanigans of his better "lawyer" half.


See this is what makes me question what the rule of law actually means to anybody anymore. What law? What order? You really mean the one sided no justice when needed no mercy when needed law we see ripping this country down the drain? Surely nobody is defending what the sick mass our law books have become? Rule of the principles in the Declaration of Independence and Constitutions sure (you know the ones the courts are supposed to hold every law against but don't), but they surely can't mean the codified mess we pretend is law and order can they?


...could?????? lol  What do you think President-elect Trump thinks of selfie stick, gender bender, Marxist feminist, Commie loving Cuban and China patsies?? Not could.......WHEN!

In 2013 Obama asked Congress permission to do the same thing but the republicans said no. Repubs are so full of it and trump broke the law again.


You post crazy talk, twy. And calling me "Ericsnot" is so juvenile that it shows you aren't an adult. You are certainly among the worst posters on this forum.


Bellevue has so many expensive projects underway.  How to pay for it?  The Livability update for one.  I huge transfer of value from residents to developers with the city taking their cut, and they are calling it a Livability update, hah.

Right, so instead of proving your claim about the Hawaiian haters in this thread, you instead respond with the typical racist Hawaiian stereotypes about haoles.

I see racism in Hawaii because ignorant racists like you pretend that your blind hatred is something other than what it is.

The fact is I have said nothing different than the kanaka maoil who were arrested outside of the Na'i Aupuni convention, but the difference is, you can not stand hearing it from someone who you assume does not have the magic blood.

News flash. Every single person on this planet is indigenous. Get over yourself.


Crows or Ravens?


How was that comment uncivil? The censorship here is disgraceful.


go read what's he's having problems with. if you're a parent,  and you have a whiny child that is on your last nerve?  donald's behaving like that child .  and why would anyone expect anything different? that would be the definition of insanity... he's a spoiled pouty brat bully. has been , is  and  will be


Try finding it as an aboriginal or non-white over 50.


I agree this should not turn into a pre-emptive military strike.  But, you can bet your tail they have a plan.  I can guarantee you our air defense system is turned up to 11 right now.  And, this wouldn't be one of those boots-on-the-ground thing to lead the way.  Did you follow what happened in Desert Storm?  That was an air campaign that was carefully planned out and worked fantastic, minimizing US casualties.  Btw, my 35th Wild Weasels were second ones in to squash the Iraqi radar.  :-)

Anyway, we spend far more than any other country on our ability to kill, and it shows.  It's why I have so little fear of these supposed threats on the planet we have to supposedly attack.  They're nothing compared to our capabilities.

Kim might get lucky here or there if he goes full stupid and tries sending a strike our way.  But, that first will be his last.  Guaranteed.


Thanks for the correction guys. Worse than I thought.


Rail would help. I know I know. WIanae residents love their cars.


Too many people when times are bad is just as awful as too many people when times are good. There isn't a single reason CO needs to try to attract more people here...


Its going to be on Corps of Engineer land. How do all of these thousands of protestors hold down a job?


Not surprised.  While not all Americans have this attitude, such attitude is a lot more prevalent in the US than Canada.  Some in Canada have it but its very much a fringe view and not one any party could win on, whereas in the US it may not be the majority view but its large enough you can win on it.


I'd rather my employees show up to work after a wake n' bake than showing up hung over.
I'd rather see someone be reliant on marijuana to get through the day than be reliant on alcohol to get through the day.

All of this is moot, anyway, when you consider that legalization will hardly "encourage" anyone to do anything. The people who already smoke every day and buy it illegally are the real benefactors here. We are no longer forced to live a "criminal" lifestyle. I have friends working in public service who are ashamed to show their faces in local headshops because they don't want someone in the public seeing them in there. Yet there's no stigma attached to going out to a bar and getting so wasted that you end up in a hospital with alcohol poisoning, after assaulting someone for disagreeing with where you left your jacket.


And if she did, and used them to feed hungry children and support other charitable causes--including promoting women's rights--that's a bad thing why?


Another Trump Communications Staffer Is Out

This time it's the guy in charge of providing Trump with his ego boosting twice daily propaganda folders that have pictures of him looking 'powerful'.

The folder guy must have had a hard time finding enough pictures because now Trump has fired him.

 Bye, Happy News Folder Guy!

That's going to look so good on your resume.


> NYT appears to be making an effort.

...but NYT has again jumped the shark on the subject of this editorial:

New York Times completely wrong on Russia admitting doping conspiracy
 http://theduran.com/new-york-times-completely-wrong-russia-admitting-doping-scandal/


Tiona: You are trying to Scold the wrong person.   No Bleeding Hearts here for a serious DRUG DEALER and DRUG USER.  What about ALL of the people's lives this man has  DAMAGED and  RUINED by selling METH and HERON to them.  How many Homeless Addicts was he selling to????   Your statement of, "I think she has a chance to overcome the lawsuit she so desperately needs for her dad".  Hmmmmm, I suggest you be extremely careful with your statements because whats coming out of your mouth  is doing her more harm than good.    Now, you mentioned that Mr. Alison was a good friend of yours.  So, in a court of LAW under OATH, would you state that YOU did not know that he was a METH and HERON DEALER?  I am betting that YOU are a USER as well.

Read the Sign:  Mr. Alison's VICTIMS


Gives a whole new meaning to "happy meal".


Is there anything original from Hollywood this year?


some have been in the US for years and would not be considered genuine!


Doubling the Standard Deductions for single and married individuals will provide income savings to the majority of tax filers.  As for eliminating the deductions for Local and State taxes, this will affect rich taxpayers who itemize their deductions and are mostly residing in 6 states which have higher Local and State taxes.  Taxpayers in the other 44 states have been subsidizing rich taxpayers living in those 6 states by allowing them to decrease their Federal income taxes.


I don't see that Catholics should have difficulty with science's findings; if "compatibility" is not likely to occur, I don't believe that "contradiction" must.  Your example of an aged universe is a good example.  The anthropic argument that the universe's existence - its current age and other factors - make it uniquely suited to the development of mankind and, therefore, a suitable "project of a God" suggest that, rather than emptying faith of an idea of the uniqueness of humans, can serve to strengthen that belief.  Yes, in a theorized infinite multi-verse at least one of those must give rise to humanity, but that theory is less about science and more about philosophical cosmology. Science should give the faithful a sense of wonder.
I won't argue to support Christogenesis - whether the universe ends in fire or ice is, I think, inconsequential to a Divine plan for the individual.
I don't see that physical extinction is incompatible with Christianity.  Even Revelation talks about it.


Somehow CNN will have a Trump and Russia connection to this shooting.


DG: Once again, Mr. Trump is, as defined by his actions, IMO a sociopath and his sociopathic behaviors should surprise no one.  There are scores of links to articles addressing his sociopathic behaviors.  Simply put, the man is disturbed,  has been all his life, and shows no proclivity to act dikfferently.  He "is" what he "is" and, it's unrealistic to expect otherwise.  Gary Crum


Well, between you and I, only one of us has a degree in the subject and taught the subject at the university level.  That would be this "loon".

BTW - calling someone a "loon" when they correct transparently false statements you made is bad manners. On this page, it is also a clear violation of the posting standards (not that I imagine "Civil Comments" will enforce its own clear-cut requirements).


Really? Christy Clark has always been a card carrying member of the Federal Liberals. Her father was a bigwig in the original BC Liberal circles when that party still existed. Where exactly do you think all the Liberals in BC went when the coalition formed? Certainly not to the NDP so... what, did they just all cease interest in politics?


H.Nelsen ..Your vision of "dagger in the back" is a perfect example of the violent analogies so typical of conservatives.  Rarely have I seen a civil comment that explains their views without the injection of some kind of violent act.  Oh, "paved with dead bodies"?  Who thinks like that?


In her opening statement, Chair Yellen said “Core inflation…has been little changed in recent months at about 1-3/4 percent.” PCEPILFE, the US Fed’s preferred measure, was at 1.7% in January, unchanged from December. However, if one looks at a more current measure of inflation, the annualized three-month rate of change, it almost doubled from 1.1% in December to 1.9% in January. So the core inflation data really also support the case for an interest rate increase. The PCEPILFE inflation rate was lower or equal to the corresponding rate for CPIX, the Bank of Canada’s operational guide until this year, from June 2014 to September 2016. Since then it has been at the same level or higher. The US Fed’s preferred core inflation measure is now showing a higher inflation rate than that of any other preferred inflation measure of a G-7 central bank.


since comments are closed on Trudeau and his righteous lashing at Fox for bad reporting of fact article, I want to say that I wish justin would just shut his trap.  Stop acting so pious.  Grandstanding and acting will get him no where.  He is so embarrassing.

Hey justin, just do your job and protect Canadians and support us.  Stop acting and start doing something worthwhile while you can.


Never knew that was the cultural name  . . .


Can't resist this dirty punchline... A cock in a pit?


Canada absorbs three times as much CO2 as it emits.  Not that it matters.


People like you are why everything is so screwed up. Thinking everyone just needs to put their hand out and give away what others have worked hard for!! People like you and Eric are going to destroy our country!!!


So how did Stone know about the Clinton email leak BEFORE it happened?
http://www.cnn.com/2017/03/20/politics/kfile-roger-stone-wikileaks-claims/index.html


For example:  Take a drive some day down the Cape Shore road on the eastern side of Placentia Bay.  There are about a half dozen old outports between Placentia and St. Brides.  Not only are all of them at 50 to 200 m above sea level on steep hills or on top of cliffs above the shoreline, none of them have wharfs or fishing sheds remaining at the shoreline because they fished out of the government wharfs at Placentia or St. Brides since the 70s.  And of course most people living in these outports now have jobs in Placentia or St. Brides, or run their own businesses, or are retired older folks.  And they have no reason to move.

Again, if you would read the study you posted, it says that what is most at risk from rising sea levels are things at sea level -- wharfs and fishing sheds, breakwaters and beach roads.  It doesn't say outports are at risk because they aren't.  Some outports may be at risk, or maybe just their wharf if they still have one, while others are at no risk at all.


Thanks for the $$ data - insane !

And might the G&M - claiming to be Canada's leading daily - include all of Canada in its housing coverage ?! Last time I checked on the map there were - GASP - many other cities in which people live and work, quite happily, without trying to pay off million dollar mortgages.


99.9% of Canadian muslims have arrived in this country since the late 1960's and most since the 1990 and yet they have so so many grievances you'd think they were residential school survivors.  Islam seems to have a built in grievance and victim culture used to advance its political agenda. Muslims are not victims, they are 15% of the world's population, and form a majority in 55+ countries, restricting the rights of non muslims wherever their majority is strong enough to do so. They have conquered vast territories just as the European Christians did during the Colonial era.


It's really disturbing that Justin Trudeau did not ask President Trump if he knew where Emerson, Manitoba was.   There are a lot of people precariously travelling to safety there - to  that little, somewhat unprepared, kindly border Town.  Maybe the President could offer to compensate its inhabitants for their time and trouble.  He has caused a lot of unexpected problems for refugees and towns folk alike.  This probably seems minor to you Prime Minister.  But apparently so was Donald Trump a year ago.

PS  I cannot believe how insensitive and dispassionate all these writers sound.  You are for the most part, disappointing as is the Prime Minister; and a bit scary.


russia bought a compound and has operated it since 1972; it is located on 45 acres in maryland (according to msn).  the cold war ended in 1991. are these people just plain nuts? i don't get it. just plain don't get it.


I don't like how the word "racism" has come to be equated with "racial bias". Back in the civil rights era, there were plenty of racists. These were people with a willful ideological belief in the supremacy and separateness of the white race, and a political agenda to implement and perpetuate it through legal, political, and institutional means. While such racism as an ideological belief is surely not dead, I believe that it has greatly declined.

But today we are willing to call someone a "racist" when they have an unconscious racial bias. And indeed, the studies cited in the article show that that includes almost everybody. I believe that this is an unfortunate cheapening of the term "racist". I am not saying that we should not fight unconscious biases, only that there is a big difference between such biases and racism as a belief.


Yes people obsessed with LGBT sexuality and gender are sexual deviants!


Sorry, Greg, you are obviously very full of poop! Say no more.


Sadly, the post of the day, folks.


On the other hand, maybe the young guy was on his way to work and was harassed by these 4 men.  You never know till all the facts come out.


" compassionate liberal persuasion."

Like the overwhelming support of capitol punishment from the Right?
You can't get much more final than that form of punishment.
 One of the selling points from the right has always been a hardline approach to crime and incarceration, but nice twist though.


our legislators and courts should increase immigration quotas from the muslim countries of syria, libya, and somalia. increase funding for welfare assistance  including medical and housing for these poor downtrodden immigrants and then ask president trump for relief for our second priority the rail.

Radical Islamic terrorist attack?  Fits the M.O.


Yeah what kind of information ever comes out of those dang things anyways?


How so, hodad? Name them. The worst time we've been through was 2001 to 2008 in  the last 40 years. We've made progress since then. If you want I can give you sites to visit to verify. Warning, there will be no fox, breitbart, wnd or drudge. Do you accept anything else?


I've read state OCS yearly statistical reports, Kirk, and those statistics just don't support your so-called legal opinion that children are being abused.  Neglect perhaps, but abuse no.  I'd like to know if in any of your child welfare cases how many of your child clients were removed from their homes solely based on the fact of overcrowding minus abuse or neglect.  How many of your child clients did you bother to reunify with their families or did you even care about reunification?  Your legal job is to reunify not divide families.  And yes I agree, there's a lot of money to be made off the heads of children, especially in the legal profession like yours.


Get over yourself.


Eu vejo Putin de forma diferente desse jornalista. Vejo Putin líder dos países que sofrem sanções dos Estados Unidos, a  saber: Rússia, Irã e Coréia do Norte. O Irã sofre muito com as sanções que faz muito tempo os Estados Unidos impõe ao Irã. Desde a época do Ayatolá Khomeini que o Irã sofre as sanções dos Estados Unidos. Os Estados Unidos apoiou o Ayatolá Khomeini contra o Xá Reza Pahlevi e depois com a subida de Khomeini os Estados Unidos muda sua posição e começa a perseguir o Irã. Afinal, o que querem os Estados Unidos?

Amber,
- You are assuming that there are no Democrats would share my view, as I didn't mention my political affiliation.
- (Example) Those companies with the money trucks that go to businesses to pick up large volumes of cash. If they don't want to hire people who have been convicted of stealing money, based on your response, you would accuse them as being discriminatory? Or, lets say that I'm putting my entire life savings into a sandwich shop that has a 50/50 chance of success, you'd mandate that I hire former convicts? That should be my choice as I'm the one with everything on the line. That's not a Democrat/Republican view, that's a business owner's view. If you would want to do that, go for it! Maybe it works out, maybe they rob you blind, but it shouldn't be mandated.
- Where do you get your $65 billion number?
-I think you were angry while typing your response. Do you really think that the sole reason for homelessness is the failure of businesses to be willing to hire convicts?


Ruff, ruff.... franco poodle


What of the Lichen and the incessant swarms of insects? How do the locals and the Caribou contend with each? I hear the weather is causing a major reduction in Lichens, the Caribou's preferred food. I have thought, all my life in Alaska, that Caribou stayed on the move to get away from the insects. Am I wrong? Was that a child's thoughts?


15 years is too short. Many will work 30 years before they retire and then qualify for elderly housing.


"They no longer accept Pell Grants."

That would be surprising. Can you tell me more?


Poor Little Monty, always searching for validation.


One of the reasons why it is hard to get accurate buyer information, is that the information we do have is deliberately withheld.

It took an FOI from the Northshore News to get the BC Liberal government to release stats on the  number of foreign buyers in West and North Vancouver.

You have to ask yourself why, oh why does the government refuse to release information pertaining as to who buys real estate?

Just like the Feds for so many years, refused to release data regarding the number of immigrants via Quebec's Investor program who were packing their bags and heading  to Vancouver, and to a lesser extent Toronto.  As in almost all of them.

(Just because the BC Liberals wanted this not released.. 24% of the RE sales in West Vancouver were to foreign buyers before the implementation of the tax.).


Simply nonsense, Richard Tijerina. Your letter has absolutely no basis in fact. Sadly, the only thing it reveals is your own personal bias - that you don't care if your president is dishonest - as long as he is from a political party you support. Thankfully, most Americans, be they Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, or ?, do care if their president is honest. And thank God we still have a somewhat free and independent press in this country to call them on it when they are not.
By the way, if you want to be taken seriously, you ought to do some homework before writing a letter to the newspaper. Up until last year, the Dallas Morning News had not endorsed a Democrat for president in over 50 years.


No you wouldn't.


Did any of the teachers bother to explain the concept of "unconstitutional" to these students or were the teachers too busy encouraging the walkout.


First, I wouldn't be basting in the news just yet.  I have seen the manipulation of data from the Federal Government created by both parties.  I would wait a month or two for a detailed analysis by private economists to see if the Census Bureau changed the statistical collection/reporting criteria of the raw data.  Minor change in the definitions by the Census Bureau can create misinformation and make the data worthless for historic comparison.

Example of cooking the books: http://thefederalist.com/2014/04/15/obamas-census-bureau-officially-plans-to-cook-obamacares-books/


Pink - it is one thing to have a dress code that requires you to look neat and profession and another to specifically detail that you must at a minimum be wearing 2 - 4 inch heels, lipstick, mascara, eye liner, blush, and foundation which is what the British firm did.  In addition they also had requirement for nail polish and that nylons matched closely your skin tone so for example a white person could not wear black nylons only those with darker skin tones.

Then there is also the requirement to wear a skirt instead of dress pants which I have also seen.

They are looking at these in the UK since it appears there are one set of rules for men and another for women.  Men are not required to go to the expense of makeup and manicures so part of the review is that the rules cost women more to comply with which is considered an undue burden.


As a matter of fact yes I do.


Could it also mean she is not cut out for promotion?  She was also not promoted by chiefs before Kealoha...only Donahue promoted her to a division Major...Donahue also commanded CIU directly as chiefs before him.  She commanded finance, training and central receiving...all administration with Kaneohe...light policing needs and Kalihi with a bit heavier policing need.

If the commission thinks she is qualified, let time tell if they are right...instead of us punters. me being one of you all.


I'm so happy to read their whale hunt was successful! I wish they could have gotten three more as I'm sure they are very yummy. From what I've read the more rare a species is, the better it tastes. Little known fact, whale blubber is also a natural aphrodisiac, better than endangered rhino horn or tiger meat.


active: "Your link obviously disagreed with your conclusion"

It depends on your interpretation.


Last week we heard about how half of Ontario's students weren't making the grade on math and now this.  When is Wynne's government going to learn.  People earning $10/hour are partly to blame themselves. They should have made better life choices, got an education and put in the proverbial '10,000 hours' significantly increasing their value above $10/hour.  As for the government side on this, how about

1. reforming those math curricula,
2. holding students accountable through standardized testing,
3. implementing standardized tests for those teaching it along with licencing specific to teaching math,
4. implementing a Teaching College Admission Test (TCAT) modelled on the MCAT, LSAT, etc, to assure that new teachers know their stuff before we subsidize their time at teacher's college, and
5. working with the feds to revise EI so that it is truly insurance with premiums adjusted for individual risk factors (education, claims history, etc.).


You do know that the only thing Arpaio was guilty of is contempt........nothing else.


Was it the Alaska state legislators?


Indeed.


There is no question that the combination of marijuana and alcohol produces extremely impaired drivers. However, the evidence says that people who have used marijuana not combined with alcohol drive just as safely as people who are not under the influence of anything.
As for "No one should operate a vehicle while under the influence of any mind-altering substance", what about caffeine? For that matter, what about benzedrine? The US Air Force issues "go pills" that are primarily benzedrine to fighter pilots who are being sent on long missions. If it's good enough for a fighter pilot, it seems to me that it should be good enough for car drivers.


In the area of Alaska where I live, our Borough (county) has similar regulations with fines. We have a Compliance Officer and he moves very quickly, on reports of junky yards, garbage and unsafe health conditions such as septic tanks and junk cars.
First of all, no one here waits around for a yard to fill up with junk. The CO comes out photographs the violations and tickets the homeowner. If it is not corrected within ten days, they go to court and get a judgement with a court order. They can then go onto the property and removed whatever it is and dispose of it. A bill for that is added on to the fines which is then added onto the property tax bill. Eventually, if taxes are not paid in two years the property is seized and auctioned off. I may have skipped a legal step or two, but it does get taken care of. Part of it is nipping it in the "bud". Not sitting back and wat hing the pile get higher.
Neighbors will offer to help but if turned away it goes to the CO. We pay taxes for it


Oh for sure. They had me fooled all the way.


Just watched this story on KEZI.

It was right before their previously filmed story on "Vision Zero" which showed an LTD bus (Route 82 on the back) blow through a pedestrian red-light crossing out on 30th Avenue and clearly showed the lights as red.

The story was emphasizing driver awareness and speed to avoid all injuries and deaths under "Vision Zero".

Apparently LTD drivers have yet to get that memo.


Just in case anyone thinks that Trump would temper his attitude toward minorities after he becomes president, he will accommodate his supporters in order to maintain his popularity, and some of them are even more extreme than he is.


Absolutely nothing like the legalistic nightmare you produced for the Bill Clinton administration, is it Newt?

'Litigate, litigate, litigate,' ring any bells for you?

What a transparent and hypocritical political opportunist, you are, Newt.


Just  this year, over 250 people have died trying to illegally cross the border.

Many of them were Catholic.  Many of them believed your claims that everyone has a moral right to illegally enter the United States.

Your encouragement of illegal immigration is an encouragement to human traffickers, and has led to the deaths of thousands of people.   This isn't hyperbole, it's just the plain truth.

And stories like this one, a made-up tale about the U.S. having open borders until just this year, will contribute to more human trafficking, and more deaths.


Moneyed RCs!  No voices from, of, and by the poor.
They might well give a different view, and abortion wouldn't be number one priority.
Unfortunately, this gathering was traditional RC in that it is threatened by democracy and progressive ideas.
The attendees can afford to live in this bubble.
The Constantinian Catholic Church is alive and well.  The marriage of money & power.
The poor remain outside.  "Let them eat cake!"


No - I will be doing other things - this is more than President Trump - it is about our flag and country, this did not start this year, and as a life long Colorado resident - I have to say Jerry Jones has this whole issue correct - I do not pay to watch someone discredit the flag and country


Utter and complete bupkiss.
Weed prohibition is Federal law only.
Trudeau really gives an impression of trying to weasel on this promise.


Because he's not a lying, stealing, fraudulent, gutless person. You asked, I told you. Now that doesn't mean I'm thrilled with Trump but at least he's not a turd. :)


They better keep that expensive choo choo train elevated and not at ground level when it gets to down town area, like some people want or it will be a submarine on rails.

The article paints a picture of a market where new Vancouver housing developments are advertised first in venues in Shanghai and Beijing and Hong Kong, where the overseas money buys them up en masse before people who actually have jobs in Vancouver get a chance to try to buy one.

This has got to stop.

It is shocking how enfeebled Canadian politicians, from city hall to Ottawa, have shoved an entire generation of young adult Canadians into a big garbage bag, tossed them into a garbage truck, and scurried them off to the hinterlands so that greedy real estate industrialists can sell their dreams to the highest bidders overseas.

Hello, Justin Trudeau? How does it feel to be the one shoving young adult Canadians into garbage bags and discarding them, along with their culturally traditional Canadian dreams of buying a house from which to go back and forth to work?

Why are you not ending the Quebec investor immigrant program? Why are you expanding visas for ultra-rich foreigners?


But there is still lots of room for the churches to do more.  And speaking of OHA, an illegal race-based program, why aren't they pouring millions into native Hawaiian programs and projects?


Trudeau supplicates to known terrorists and at the same time is trying to limit free speech on the discussion of Islam.  Canadians, I hope you wake up before the next election in October 2019 and vote this globalist out of office.  Otherwise we can expect to see Canada become something similar to Sweden, France, Germany or the UK.


Another reminder.  Just how well did CSIS do on the "Air India" file, that was of course prior to the plane being downed and the baggage explosion in Japan.  The destruction of file material from on high!  Upon reflection do you have further comments?


Have you ever asked anyone how much they have to pay for their stand space to start with?  The Farmer's Market in FAI has a booth fee, a membership fee, and 10% of their sales, which go to the Market. If you don't know and won't bother asking, just quit. Geezus.

You've changed the focus of your comments from religion-based requests to gender-based requests.


Dave - read the law, it is clear. Here it is in case you have trouble finding it:

 "finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation ... suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate."


That is someone who is full of himself.
