The OPP already has dedicated Highway patrol units and officers, at least in the GTA they do.
| 4 |
You are correct. In addition we shouldn't be using the OPP for enforcement for these issues, there should be special constables within the OPP (Highway Patrol if you will) whose sole purpose will be to enforce traffic laws and investigate, more efficiently, traffic mishaps

Just love republicans. For 8 years they complained about a president who took us from the worst recession to the dow being close to 20000. Now republicans are defending a new clown in chief when he shreds the constitution. Just imagine if Hillary was president an she did a tenth of what the Donald has done. Oh, thats right. Its Ok if you are republican. Just love the double standard. Enjoy republicans. Notice the Dow is down again this morning. Coincidence or part of a trend?

And not a thing you posted has ever resulted in impeachment of anyone, much less a President whose party controls the House and the Senate.
As far as the Emoluments clause is concerned, the Congress can pass legislation to approve anything that might violate that clause. It's right there in the Constitution!
"And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, WITHOUT THE CONSENT OF CONGRESS accept any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.”
The magic words there in CAPS mean that Congress gets to say what is okay if they want to. And they have done it after the fact, too!
And, as some commentator said recently, "No matter the size of his hands, he can still hold a pen!"
The Republicans are not going to kick him to the curb while he is meeting their agendas.
And even if they do, 'President' Pence is not going to become Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama!

Ah, insults and nonsense. Standard fare for Trump supporters.
The case against Trump is more than not liking him. The problems with this President are, in no particular order:
1) Utter incompetence.
2) Complete disdain for our governmental institutions.
3) Contempt for the restrictions on the Presidency, most obviously the Emoluments clause of the Constitution, as well as the developing obstruction of justice charges.
The man is a liar , crooked to the core, incompetent, and possibly insane or mentally incompetent. You are right that none of what I list in this sentence is enough to have him impeached - but 3) above will suffice. It takes time for the wheels of justice to grind, but grind they will, and Trump is already up to his arm in them. The rest will follow.
Oh - and who told you the "Russian collusion" thing was "debunked"? They lied to you.

Very true - to refuse to recognize that it is even any issue is simply irresponsible.

"I don't see any problem with a prosecutor being a friend of a potential witness."
That is truly an insane view. It is an inherent CONFLICT of interest and makes one wonder what was going on in the Deputy Attorney General Rosenstein's mind when he appointed Mueller. It was obvious to me, and should have been to him, that Mueller and Comey have a relationship far more intricate than simply that of their former association at the DOJ.

Yes, moon howler, I have the right to express my opinions on the Globe online - just as you have the right to post your continual contempt against people like the Prime Minister. Conrad Black is a convicted felon with minimal legal background. Those are facts. Having his column posted 6 times as if it were holy scripture is more than enough (that's my opinion.)

Why do you harass Black who has served his time? You feel you have the licence to express your intolerance from the safety and anonymity of the internet?

1.) I reject your notion of a necessary trade off between liberty and security. Our liberties ARE our security.
2. In any case, your insistence on background checks won't provide any additional security but will add a burden to law abiding gun buyers.
3. If you and your liberal friends want to investigate each other, fingerprint, give each other psychological tests, check on each other's no fly status or do all the other nutty things that liberals think will make yourselves safe from our freedoms go right ahead. Maybe you could start a little club and have meetings. But LEAVE ME AND MY LAW ABIDING GUN OWNING FRIENDS OUT!
Did you google my picture and now think I'm a young and dumb redhead? Think again!
4. Your invitation is sweet and I'm flattered but I don't date men I've met on the internet. ..... (If you are a U.S. Marine I might reconsider.)
| 10 |
Ronni: I have posted an alternative to the background check law created by SB941. Read it and let me know your opinion.
The balance between safety and liberty is a constant factor in virtually every law passed. We seldom see a law which provides either totall safety or total freedom (which would likely be the absence of any law relating to the activity).
I'm guessing I'd fall farther on the continuum of "gun laws" toward safety and you'd fall farther toward liberty. May I suggest that presenting one's opinion on the issue hardly qualifies an individual as a "little tyrant." If you'd ever enjoy discussing "gun laws" and the balance between safety and liberty in person, let me know. I'm guessing we'd have a lively discussion. I'm in the book, give me a call and let's have a cup of coffee, or a beer and that lively, but civil, conversation. regards, Gary Crum

Using your words differently:
What I think (or hope) the city is getting...is that in order to Attract more positive vibrancy downtown, it needs to be UNattractive to others. Eugene can't drive anyone away, but making it less attractive to stay is another story. From feedback I've read, the dog ban is working...good, I was for it. Those who hand out food, money, cheerful greetings to travelers are partly to blame for the 'crisis'. That friendliness and generosity attracts them...word spreads. Once upon a time, it was considered kindness and now? It's stupidity. (imo)
| 10 |
The city doesn't get it.
In order to attract more citizens, the city FIRST needs to drive out the bums. There seems to be a notion that the bums will automatically leave if citizens come downtown; a fantasy that was disproven by the recent "revitalization" of the city center. As businesses thrive, more bums accumulate.
This might be a good thing, but not in a vacuum.

Monica-gate and Whitewater-gate were focused on the same target subject...Bill Clinton. This switch would move from a special prosecutor investigating the Russians, without any links to Trump (based on Comey's testimony) and turning it into an investigation of Trump interfering in a different investigation (Flynn). It would be akin to Ken Starr moving from Whitewater-gate to investigating Al Gore.
| 4 |
generally, special prosecutors have been allowed to go wherever they wanted, as when Ken Starr veered off whitewater-gate onto monica-gate...a completely unrelated, and imho absurd investigation.

I don't know why you're defending the Fake News gadabout.
The truth might be bitter at times, but its much better than some sugar coated corporate lies.
The Iraq war is no small thing. Millions of people died and live in misery because of that war, and the world is still bleeding today because of it. The MSM sold that war. If they had any integrity they would have shut down in shame, but here they are, still churning out lies. If all he got right was the Iraq war, Alex Jones is still a million times more credible than the Fake News.

If Trump fires Mueller, the Special Counsel, we will all be in disarray regardless of party-- there will be no "can we all move on now"-- just Republicans and Democrats working to impeach Trump. His cabinet must be advising him not fire Mueller. The exception in Trump's cabinet who might advise firing Mueller is Steve Bannon-- who calls himself a Leninist who wants to see Trump bring chaos to America to make it over-- I think every other cabinet member would be for keeping Mueller.

DimmsLibs are in total DISARRAY!
POTUS Trump beat Crooked hiLIARy in a YUUUUUGE election and her supporters have not gotten over it.
I thank the Man in charge of Heaven everyday since Nov. 8, 2016 and will keep thanking him for the next 8 years...and I believe the GOP will prevail from there on.
Oh & btw...the DimmsLib WITCH HUNT will end in the most embarrassing manner...a whimper.

One of the big impediments to starting a "Coop" before the price of oil tanked was the high cost of retail space in Anchorage. That is no longer true. The old Carr's anchor store sits vacant at the "Sear's Mall" and the old Natural Pantry location (formerly a Safeway) sits vacant at the mall on Old Seward Hwy at 36th; Habitat will be leaving that mall this month too. The vacancy rate for commercial property in Anchorage is soaring and prices will soon be more affordable for start-ups (like a food coop). Perhaps it's time to start organizing?
| 4 |
What Anchorage really needs is a customer owned and operated food cooperative. Whole Foods is just another BIG corporation from out of state - we don't need any more big companies to ship our money outside, we have enough already.

Look up the term concomitance.
| 4 |
Although the usage may well be rather ancient, it seems the application of the title "Father" to secular priests in English speaking countries is a recent (couple of hundred years, max) innovation.
Regardless, the practice, whatever its age, does seem very strange given Jesus' "divine command" in Matthew 23:9--“Call no one on earth your father, you have but one Father in heaven.”
We certainly cherry pick the "divine commands" we choose to take seriously. At every mass, we hear the command to "take and eat" and "take and drink" but are content so very often to merely "take and eat." For the life of me, I don't understand why parishioners don't demand the chalice in parishes where it is not offered, and so often walk by the chalice where it is offered.

I haven't seen any individual who post on this thread on a regualar bases that aren't hypocrites. You can't stand by and watch the corrupt Obama administration operate and than turn around and condemn the Trump administration. Fact is our entire central government is being run by political hypocrites so anyone who supports a particular party are therefore hypocrites. I support a conservative style of governing that allows for the people to be individuals and live with less government in their personal lives. Democrats on the other hand support the collective where you think like everyone else or you will be labeled as an extreme radical.
| 10 |
What does giving Trump a pass on doing something that you essentially labeled a crime when Hillary did it have to do with undoing Obama-era policy? Are you telling me that such a task can't be completed by Trump without doing something that you labeled as criminal?
You're too funny.

I'm not at all surprised by this criticism from the US. This is an appalling laxity on the part of this Liberal govt. and a serious breach in Canadian and North American security. It seems that Young Trudeau is a pussy cat when it comes to the Chinese, but he makes the mistake that they are very different ball players now than they were in his father's day, when his dad could relax and enjoy the relationship. These are very clever and advantage-grabbing players today, always with another agenda in mind, way beyond the commercial.

I have Muslim friends? They live here in the states. They are part of the 900,000,000 that don't want Sharia to be law of the land. What about the 900,000,000 (50%) that want it to be law of the land? Your reality is only focused on the ones you know. What about the ones in the other countries living in this type of reality? Note I have not written anything to offend just putting out the facts. Do we let in the ones that want Sharia in and deal with it? I guess so? It's America.

You and I have no idea how long this will go on, but all the investigations are completely under the control of Republicans right now. So you might as well blame the Easter Bunny or Santa Claus, and you'd be just as accurate as you are blaming liberals.

lol, no, he was not elected by most of America, only by a minority. He lost the popular vote by almost 3 million. And a self made billionaire? Where do you get this from? He is just a poor little rich kid who was given lots by his parents. So no way he was a self made billionaire. Finally we don't know how much he is worth because he is too chicken to release his tax returns.

The person you bad mouth has been elected to POTUS by most of America and he's a self made billionaire. You on the other hand are saddled with immense college debt and probably are classified as one of the natives with no known local address. Who's the real monkey now? LOL

"There are two sides to every story..."
Yes, but if the "other" side is included, sometimes it appears there's really not much of a story. Or, the story takes off in a direction that was entirely unintended by the media outlet. Yikes! When you have an agenda--even if it's "champion for truth and justice!"--this may be "inconvenient."
Why does it seem so difficult for the Globe and Mail to run stories about the "other side" (oh, heck ANY side in addition to the alleged "victim"s side) in the unending series of sexual assault? I want to read more comments from spokespeople (or whistleblowers) in police departments. I want to read comments from prosecutors; a judge or two. Nope. Not much--unless its an obvious bow to the "victims." And I certainly would like to see a history of conviction rates in Philadelphia since their "model" of 3rd party oversight came into use. Same, up or down? Call the D.A.'s office in Philly, somebody. And if the media can't reach him, tell us why.

Given the rank partisanship in Congress, for which Republicans are equally if not more responsible than Democrats, you really think a congressional investigation would be more objective and efficient? Just look at Rep. Nunes' actions earlier this spring.
| 4 |
What I honestly know is special counsel or prosecutor presumes a crime has been committed and someone is guilty. They have no intentions on proving something was legal, only that something was criminal and illegal. Anything slightly questionable, which could be just about anything, will be view as a full blown scandal by the Trump hating Liberals and the media. A congressional investigation would search more for the truth and the facts.

This whole thing is only a problem because Hillary lost, if she won, no one would be talking about it, that's the hilarious thing.

"A person is guilty of assault in the fourth degree – the least serious assault offense under Oregon law – if he: intentionally, knowingly or recklessly causes physical injury to another, or. as a result of criminal negligence, causes physical injury to another with a deadly or dangerous weapon."
I don't see any broken vases in that charge.
"Notwithstanding subsection (2) of this section, assault in the fourth degree is a Class C felony if the person commits the crime of assault in the fourth degree and:
(a) The assault is committed in the immediate presence of, or is witnessed by, the person’s or the victim’s minor child or stepchild or a minor child residing within the household of the person or victim;"

Oh motley, it is highly unlikely that he hit his wife. If there had been a real physical assault, the charge would be much more severe. No, almost certainly this was a yelling match with maybe a flower vase knocked over.

Ah, there is the rub... is all expression an "expression of hatred"?
I have been very vocal against M103 - am I a 'hater'?
Is the next deranged person, or simpleton who decides to lob a slur, going to be persuaded by a "parliamentary motion"?
One needs to think about shoving all these "statistics" and 'motions' in our face, the ensuing resentment is only natural.

No, I don't, Gruhcho, but it stands to reason that an increased atmosphere of hate towards a particular group, ends up in an increased number of hate incidents ... as has happened.

en, you give a good summary of your views. Regarding the Kansas situation, information is insufficient for conclusion. To judge the efficacy of tax cuts on business, one must know the time scales involved in the situation. It would several years before any significant growth would be noticed. Also of crucial importance in judging the situation is the evaluation of other factors co-operative with the tax cut that affect the Kansas economy. The opinion piece ignores such issues. For those like you who have pre-existing beliefs regarding tax cuts, analysis is unnecessary and facts are irrelevant.
| 4 |
This short essay, within its size limit, provided the essentials:
Sam Brownback drastically cut taxes.
State revenues plummeted as a direct result. (You know, you lower taxes with no economic benefit, and revenue shrinks equal to the tax cut.)
Schools became drastically unfunded as tax cuts produced no new revenue from the promised economic growth.
The Kansas Republican legislature decided to raise taxes to fund schools.
Brownback vetoed the tax hike.
The legislature overrode Brownback's veto.
The upshot: supply side stimulus such as tax cuts have never worked to increase revenue through economic stimulus, because in most cases tax cuts don't produce more stimulus than the revenues they eliminate. Never have, never will. Their only purpose as Republicans use them is to transfer money to the already rich, who don't spend it, therefor no stimulus.
This isn't biased, since economics has no party; this is the historical record of supply-side economics, which is a bait-and-switch swindle.

Christians try to reinterpret the failed literal text of the bible, such as the heavens being an iron sheet pierced with holes, meant literally, as a metaphorical explanation of lights in the night sky, and the Garden of Eden Creation myth, borrowed during the Babylonian captivity, as a metaphorical explanation for Cosmology, Astronomy, Geology, and Evolution.
Understanding a metaphor does not mean that you agree it is an accurate model of reality. One persons metaphor is another persons lie. The Old Testament Bible text was meant literally by the ancient Hebrews who composed it, not metaphorically. Issac Asimov wrote extensively about that.
Another way to view it is as a failed model. Newtonian Mechanics explained a lot, but not precession of the perihelion of mercury's orbit, or gravitational lensing. The scientific model is not objective reality, any more than a metaphor is. You have to admit where the model / metaphor fails and look more closely.
Get that beam out of your eye.

Yes how wonderful for you, But could you understand a metaphor in the bible about your own life? i think NOT.

How many times did you stop to eat and take care of other necessities? You would make one 30 to 40 minute refueling stop in a Tesla Model S or X.
Just curious..What kind of gas engine vehicle gets 500 mile range? Here's the real deal. Gas engine vehicles put 5 lbs of sulfur dioxide into the air we breathe for every gallon used at idle. We must change whether we like it or not. What's not to like? Cleaner, faster, safer, cheaper. There's no good to come of taking the oil in the earth (its there to lube the earth in its rapid movement through time and space, not to make texas oilmen and arab sheiks rich), burning it in our cars and putting it into the air in the form of poison.
Where do you think the cancers are coming from? Cell phones and nuclear releases? Sure. But what is the real culprit? Could it be 700 million internal combustion engines trudging around every day?
Keep it up and we go extinct. Sooner than later.

I actually used the term "new-left" because this is not a classical liberal position. Before Trudeau, it wasn't a large-L Liberal position either. Neither Chretien nor Martin nor Dion (who was fired shortly after denying that there was any chance of a Canada-China free trade agreement) would have allowed the sale of any security/military corporations to China. None of them would have refrained from criticizing the human rights abuses in China either. Yet Trudeau does all of these things as well as take money for the Liberal Party and his father's foundation from known Chinese Communists and is pushing for a free-trade agreement. Read any article about Trudeau in China in the Star or on the CBC website. Listen to what Trudeau himself says about China or Cuba. Brutal repression is ignored and the people who do it are "admired," even "love their people." If you disagree with that, that's good. I challenge you to ask a left-leaning person tomorrow what they think about China...

Interesting.
You argue that there is something inimical to "the Left" w/o defining it. You provide no examples of 'the Left', but use prejudice to make a case. You rely on a talking point about Harper, as if this proved anything about the Right wing as a whole. How? In your last paragraph you use a straw man rather than a fair summary of the "New Left" and use a tired myth that progressive politics features "anything goes." Actually, no, it doesn't. Not everything is relative. I don't know anyone who says that, or that there is "no better or worse form of government." You take the "world leader" quote out of context, and one can support any policy that is good for the planet regardless of who offers it. Doesn't mean China is supported in anything else.
Rather than "confusing things," I'm pointing out to you that you are being unfair. There are a lot of fallacies in your posts. My counter to your post is that when ANY group gets power, it stifles dissent etc--that's what PEOPLE do.

And meanwhile, Ganot just lost his big savior for this year and next as Alberts has crossed Ganot off his list but left The Beach on it. But then again, Ganot fans are good at making excuses for losing. Only recruiting news is a 2019 grad that is going to be available after Ganot's contract ends.

I would guess they did read the story and they are commenting on the underlying issue not the symptom. The symptom is that people are willing to pay for private care which allows doctors to double-bill, the issue is that there is a lack of resources made available in our public system (which causes two year waiting lists which could be a death sentence).
If you only address the symptom, so you somehow stop the use of private care in Canada the issue still exists. So people either live in a bubble and stay on the list with many dying or they are free to move and just buy the care in another country (possibly at a higher fee and definitely more when you factor in travel and stay). Rather than try to address the symptom, fix the system causing it.
George and Athelene I would argue are correctly identifying the issue, emwatcher stopped short of critical thinking.

Try reading the story. It's about double billing, i.e., cheating.

Our learned commentators dropped any pretence of impartiality early on, with the line: "This default pricing system will come into effect only if a province isn’t showing its own leadership..." So now we are to believe that differing political opinions on taxation are considered a failure of leadership? Curious view point.

While global warming may be real and it may indeed be caused by man, but carbon taxes are a scam. It is a general revenue producing take that will never reduce carbon emissions. It is the biggest scam ever perpetrated on man and the tax payers needs to know this fact.

My understanding from this story, is that the man was an American, traveling in Munich. Taking assumptions one step further, likely a low-life drifter with a criminal history--sleeping in his father's basement in Ft Collins. ...But the AssocPress and DP coverage leaves those details wide open for individualized readers' creative interpretation.

Would agree but you ignore the reality that the Freedom Caucus has pushed extremism to the point that *moderation* is still too far to the right - it is no centrism - and why Democrats have difficulties doing what you call for. Suggestion - we need adults; not partisan teenagers.

As you point out, the Atlanta election is a long-shot still for the Democrat, although the candidate's strength there is an encouraging sign. (For the record, I was a Republican for the first 60 years of my life. Now I am registered as an Independent). The most hopeful recent sign for the future wellbeing of the US, actually, may be that moderate Republicans in Kansas joined with Democrats in the legislature there to undo some of the catastrophic economic policies that Brownback initiated. Trump's proposals are similar, and would be as bad for the US as Brownback's have been for Kansas. A push to moderation among the GOP would help neutralize some of Trump's most potentially harmful proposals. There may be some hope for the country IF (and it's a huge IF) some Democrats would also drop some of their extreme positions and become more moderate, along with a desperately needed increase in the numbers of moderate Republicans. This country may not survive the current extremes.

It will be interesting to find out a bit more about the shooter. Is he part of American terrorism? Is he a member of the NRA and thought we were under attack? Is he a Muslim terrorist? Good thing this country has the second amendment. Why didn't the other players have guns?

It's the coward Repubs that want to walk around with a gun on their hip to reinforce their manhood. Obama has been the best President since Eisenhower.
| 52 |
To help focus the minds of Democrats on the drawbacks of embracing such a policy of unrestrained bellicosity, Republicans might wish to fund the installation of signage on busses, railway trains, highway billboards, newspapers, magazines &c. depicting a Democrat donkey and the question “APPOMATTOX COURTHOUSE ???” in stark white letters rising out of a lake of blood and islands of spent ammunition cartridges.
Meanwhile one recalls a tuneful ditty that was quite popular 75 years ago: “Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition.”
Bottom line: we the people made a terrible mistake in 2008 and again in 2012. And now the time has come when we cannot escape paying for those mistakes. It seems fitting to recall what Obama himself reminded everyone on so many occasions, “elections have consequences”.

Perhaps if he has stuck with running a province, instead of telling the rest of Canada what he thinks is wrong with them, he might have been respected to the degree that you suggest.
But he didn't, and he did, and he isn't.
Wall is just another failed Conservative who puts his broken ideology ahead of his constituents, and Canadians can look forward to eliminating one more tired Conservative government in the next provincial election.

Perhaps by today's standards they are behind.
There was no kindergarten when I attended public school at first grade and started learning my letters. We even had corporal punishment.
And we didn't become proficient in reading until the fourth grade. We had a lot of catching up to do with the private school kids.
But that's OK I had realised that I should stay here for college and have eventually done well in graduate school. No harm done...
With preschool we need to focus on negative consquences. No harm in principle in trying to accelerate academic training. In fact the fade-out that's been studied in the short-term at third or fourth grade was attributed to poor first, second, and third grade education.
Bad consequences in the long term, however, to not waiting for critical stages of brain development and trying too hard at academic learning in preschool programs. Personality and emotional problems are annecdotally reported - difficult research problem.
| 4 |
You might be surprised Allie, to learn that Kindergarten for five year-olds is only mandatory in 15 states and has only been mandatory in Hawaii since 2014 when Abercrombie signed the law. Many states still do half day Kindergarten. Hawaii was always ahead of that curve offering full-day programs. In Hawaii, public school kindergarten programs introduce literacy and numeracy. What we've found is that kids who aren't well on the way to reading fluently by the end of grade one, have a deficit that his really hard to repair later on and in some cases, they never catch up.

" ... a semi-automatic rifle (one trigger pull, one shot) is not that much more dangerous than a semi-auto pistol or revolver (one trigger pull, one shot) - or even a bolt-action rifle."
Wrong.
A revolver is much more difficult for the non-expert to reload quickly than a semiautomatic and most bolt-action rifles (like my Model 70 Winchester) repeat fire more slowly than a semiautomatic and must be reloaded bullet-by-bullet rather than by exchanging magazines.
| 4 |
Well, I don't think it's coming to that - we're both exaggerating here. Semi-automatic rifles have been around for a long-time, and I don't requite my kid to take his gun to baseball practice. I would also contend that in the wrong hands, a semi-automatic rifle (one trigger pull, one shot) is not that much more dangerous than a semi-auto pistol or revolver (one trigger pull, one shot) - or even a bolt-action rifle.

Way too many of them are false doctrines, unsupportable by logic, science, psychology or any other credible evidence. But that's what cults do, don't they?
| 5 |
The Church's teachings on sexuality are not dogmas, they're doctrines. All the dogmatic statements are contained in the Creed(s). Dogmas cannot be changed or deleted, though they may be enlarged. Doctrines (for example, the teachings on sexuality), on the other hand, may be enlarged, changed, or even suppressed. God is far less hung up on sex than His creatures, it seems.

This year, House Republicans voted to rescind an Obama administration rule that heightened scrutiny of mentally impaired people who seek to purchase a firearm. Critics of the rule, mostly Republicans, said it would strip law-abiding citizens of their constitutional rights. Among those who voted to end the rule: House Majority Whip Steve Scalise. He was among those in Wednesday’s shooting.

Yes, and that was an investigation by a special counsel that started as a fishing expedition about Whitewater and wound up with Clinton's sex life. Republicans should take note just how wide a special counsel's investigation can range, even with them dragging their feet all the way.

Agreed. Clinton was impeached for lying about his affair, not for the affair itself.

On this I disagree, but hope I'm wrong. It won't be a great fight.
It'll either be a boring fight in which they avoid each other, or more likely, a really quick one once Floyd figures out Conor's weak spots and jabs away. Floyd wins it in 2!
| 4 |
Great fight! Boxing rules means Floyd likely wins, but Conor will do some real damage in the process. Floyd holds a lot, but he will not be able to hold this guy who will easily use various methods to remove Floyd as easily as removing a fly. Boxers usually do not have anywhere near the conditioning that these guys have, who engage is real fights that are brutal. Floyd is 41, and is well into his retirement. Conor is in prime shape always and is 100% legit and tougher than nails. The boxing establishment/refs will not let Floyd lose unless it is a 2 out of 3 setup. Boxing is run by the mob, and is a joke. MMA is run by the rules of combat and their fights are clean and are real. No set ups, no fake winners. 99% of the time they get it right. I pick Conner will beat the hell out of Floyd, who will hold on for his life. Floyd is smart, he has seen everything, but not these guys. MMA fighters keep coming and never run and hide or hold. Conner wins it in 9!

When you consider that sitting government could have less than 33% popular vote, and that Trudeau reneged on electoral reform that he was part of his platform (where is accountability here?!), we better have Senate blocking 'out there' legislation of run-away politicking.
| 4 |
I'm quite shocked actually whenever the issue of the Senate blocking or refusing to pass legislation for a protracted period comes up, by the number of posters who seem to side comfortably with the Senate over the elected members of Parliament who sit in the House, and who answer directly to the citizenry.
The only thing I can come up with to account for such an odd reversal of democratic allegiance, is that for a significant subset of the population, democracy isn't actually a concept they're particularly comfortable with...how else can one explain a willingness to turn over to unaccountable representatives, the power to govern unattached to the power of removal by the citizens being governed.

Recruiting in the OIA is rare and not sustainable, look where Mililani finished just 1 yr after their so called recruits graduated, 7th place in the OIA. The ILH on the otherhand have eyes all around this island scouting the youth leagues and lining up their future rosters. Leilehua won a title 10yrs ago and were never seen again, Mililani wont win another state title for 10 more years. Kahuku is the only one consistant from the OIA. The playing field will never be even but the ILH is trying to make you think it is.
| 4 |
OIA schools recruit too. Last year's Kapolei QB lived in Ewa Beach (Campbell HS District) but played at Kapolei (under June Jones). The family moved to Alabama. When Mililani won the championship, I heard they had a number of geographic exception on their team.

The truth hurts for you, sunshine? I suppose it must be lekker being her private secretary!
And instead of your attacks on me, maybe you might like to actually address the bulldust above which says in about 1850 words what should have been said in a paragraph or even a sentence. Basically, 'we couldn't give a continental stuff about the people that voted for us, we only care about our party '. Mind you, judging from your pathetic effort of a response to me, did you perhaps write the original article yourself?
You might also want to tell me why I shouldn't consider your boss 'self-serving'? If ever there was an example of 'self-serving' it's the rubbish she 'wrote'. Too sh*t scared of losing her lekker job as a minister than actually addressing the reason why the opposition have asked for a secret ballot in the first place, namely that your party has been captured and anyone that voted against their crookery would be thrown out by the Zuptas?
You disgust me.
| 75 |
Self-serving? Where is your evidence for this? You don't have to do a lot of research to find out how much she has given, still continues to give and will continue to give to better the lives of South Africans of all races. What have you done?
Responsible and accountable South Africans don't have to be in power to make a difference in this country?
Where is your input other than making a loud noise like an empty can?
Address the points raised in this article like what some of the comments here addressed. Don't go for the person because you know anything about her and if you did, you would realise that you don't have and most importantly have not demonstrated the integrity that she carries in her smallest finger. All that your comment does is to bring your "person" and the resultant contributions or lack thereof into the debate.
This is a public forum and inasmuch as her ipinions are in the public and should be responded to, so are yours.
So, here is a mirror, now self-reflect!

Here's the most logical explanation for you. The guy's a big-time Bernie supporter and hated Trump and all things Republican. Awhile back he bought a couple of guns, left Illinois, and headed to D.C. because he hates Trump and all Republicans/conservatives. Big time fan of Rachel Maddow, who also hates Trump and Republicans. He's been casing out areas around D.C. for some time now, living out of a gym bag and the Y.M.C.A. Today he saw some people practicing for the congressional baseball league. He stopped someone and asked if they were Dems or Repubs. Then he figured this was his best shot to destroy Trump & Company (in his own words). This is what you get when you've got the media and the Democrats programming people to assume all kinds of fictitious rumors about Trump and the GOP to be true. All of this should be laid at the feet of the newscasters, NYT, Wa Post, and of course the Democrats in congress who have known for months that there was no evidence or indication of collusion.

Every southern Democrat, those who supported segregation, voted against the 1964 Civil Rights bill and Strom Thrumond left the party. The only southern Democrat who supported it was Ralph Yarborough of Texas who supported all civil rights bills from 1957 to 1970 (including the Voting Rights Act of 1965). Sanders isn't a "D". He's an Independent. Try to pay attention. The KKK collapsed by 1870, disappearing for 50 years. The Republicans abandoned Reconstruction in 1876 and are now doing their best to void the 15th Amendment by sending Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach around the country to teach Republican officials how to keep blacks and Hispanics (and even students, the poor and women) from voting.
| 10 |
And this guy today was a hard core lefty supporting Sanders. Sanders is a D, D's founded the KKK. If you want to use bad logic at least have it cut both ways.

We must learn once again to differentiate between guilty and innocent. Between offensive action and defensive action.
Between good and bad.
In the false reality of this comment area, the collective intellect here has been clouded by bad formation, bad information, and secularity.
Many people here can't differentiate between anything any more: good, bad, male, female, love and unlove.

Komman, the fair thing to do is to just say no to the income tax on all free loading high income Alaskans BUT should set a income level cutoff for the PF dividend payout. This satisfies all the no income tax defenders who all say they will give up their PF dividend and the low/no earners who want their PF dividend and a income tax on high earners. A chicken in every pot; with an apology to the live chicken. What's not to like.
| 4 |
None of us has done anything to deserve the PFD. We all just get it free after establishing residence. It's a nice thing to have. If it becomes welfare for those who need it, then so be it. The needy are going to get assistance one way or another. I'd take a greater offense at people not willing to work getting my taxes. Let them keep their PFD checks.
If Alaska must have a tax, let it be reasonable and equitable. In other words, everyone pay their fair share, rich and poor alike. This means no income tax. Let there be a user or sales tax. That way, those who play, pay. If you have the money to spend, you pay tax, no exemptions, no shelters, fair and square.

E! Lester, considering a move anytime soon? Could use the space you occupy for some homeless family who were "willing" victims to the insane rise in costs of housing in Hawaii. Have you taken a look around your neighborhood lately? I think they call it "urban sprawl," or invasion of not only the carpetbaggers but the exotic Orient investors with lots of "american" money to spend...buying up America!
| 4 |
People move all the time to get a better job or for an education, Statistics show the average family moves every seven years. Supposedly we have 11 million illegal immigrants in the country who moved here to get a job, many paying smugglers to get them across the border. They left everything and everybody behind and they don't whine about it. They take crud jobs American and Native Hawaiians refuse to do. They better themselves and their communities, working and paying taxes.
.
Sorry if I don't cry for the Native Hawaiians who choose to stay instead of moving. It's their choice so they can live with it, complaining about the inconvenience of moving is both funny and sad.
.
Maybe the homeless count here is so high because some here prefer to be homeless to moving. In any event not everybody automatically deserves sympathy and charity because they make bad life choices. Like you said. NO TELL ME WHAT FO DO !

Perhaps we shouldn't blithely discard our traditions, and maybe there is a reason behind it? How would it affect our relationship with the Eastern Orthodox to depart from an apostolic tradition? I can see a young deacon with children who is widowed being permitted to remarry but I can see problems arising from a widowed (or a deacon with a declaration of nullity) dating parishioners. Things like this should be thought through.
| 4 |
A practice, to deserve to be continued, needs to serve a purpose. Perhaps this practice is a tradition that needs to be re-examined.

"Prime Minister Justin Trudeau today announced support for a federal investment of $1.283 billion from the long-term Investing in Canada infrastructure plan to support the Réseau électrique métropolitain (REM) light rail network in Montréal, subject to necessary due diligence. Today's announcement will make it possible to finalize the financing of the project and meet the construction schedule of the Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec."

Trump admitted in Lester Holt's interview the reason why he fired Comey was because of the Russian investigation with his campaign: "And in fact when I decided to just do it, I said to myself, I said 'you know, this Russia thing with Trump and Russia is a made-up story, it's an excuse by the Democrats for having lost an election that they should have won'."

Pt. 2
This attitude---that women were somehow "mutilated men" was shockingly commonplace and remained so throughout the several centuries. It certainly was a teaching utilized against women in religious houses of formation preparing men for the priesthood.
--------------------------

These ideas were taught for almost 1500 years in seminaries. Women couldn't be priests, because they lacked the necessary part [male sex organ].
In our own world today, women were faced with the rulings of JP II.

Pt. 1
Benedict's sister, St. Scholastica and the Benedictine women did an exemplary job in running those hospitals, too.
In addition to Jerome and Aquinas, there were others---who had these ideas about women: Tertulian, Origen and others. Here is a comment by Galen [c. 217], a medical theorist, on the physical make-up of women:
"So too the woman is less perfect than the man in respect to the generative parts. For the parts were formed within her when she was still a fetus, but could not [develop] because of the defect in the heat emerge and project on the outside, and this, though making the animal itself that was being formed less perfect than one that is complete in all respects, provided no small advantage for the race; for there needs must be female. Indeed, you ought not to think our creator would purposely make half the whole race imperfect and, as it were, mutilated, unless there was to be some great advantage to such a mutilation."

No, Geoff, you mustn't trust politicians anywhere!! They need to be continually tested.
But obviously with this bunch of ANC trough-snouters here, it's more a question of trying to find an even slightly honest one.

There's this assumption you can trust politicians but in SA this is rarely the case and the DA is no different outside, maybe, the W Cape where the majorities are generally in place. What goes on in Gauteng is a joke!

Actually, RideSource is a service available to anyone with a qualifying disability, temporary or permanent, and who meets other qualifications, such as access to an existing LTD stop. You do pay for the service if you are not low-income qualified, but you are not required to be below an income threshold in order to use the service. Also: not only for medical transport, qualifying trips include personal grocery shopping, personal care errands, etc. People with disabilities should not have to be shut-ins just because their access is limited (not saying you're saying this, L2G, but it was my community experience with my temporary disability).
| 4 |
For clarity: RideSource can only be used if you are disabled or low income and have Medicaid. They are asking now if you have an automobile and if so why can't you drive question.
They then contract out to Oregon/Eugene taxi. Many of the folks I've talked to who use this service DO NOT WANT Eugene or Oregon taxi to transport. The drivers are very rude and sometimes act too strangely for many of us. It's a blessing to have.
Again: Only for medical transport. They also have another big bus/van that takes folks w/wheelchairs and/or people who need to go grocery shopping if you live in town only.

This is a vision?
Dissing your adversary as an old liar and trotting out platitudes doesn't qualify, Andy. And unsubstantiated allegations of partisan corruption isn't the "softer, more personable image that resonates with a broader public", it's the watered down American style attack so favoured by your predecessor.
And last I checked, a generation was 20 years, not 7 -- get a grip.
Want your numbers to stay at 30 - 34%? Keep up with the drivel. No one who hasn't already drunk the Kool-Aid will buy into this nonsense.

I picture the scene from Ace Ventura and understand why some women might feel uncomfortable. Forcing women to be in the company of male genitals at a spa is a bit much (no offence to the transgender lady but I would assume some women just aren't comfortable with mr. winky in that setting).
| 10 |
Honestly, this world is becoming crazy and too sensitive.
Hearing the women talk about this on CBC yesterday and talking about how they should have thought about this policy 10 years ago. This is obviously the first big issue this place has had. Its a small business, its not unreasonable that they didn't have any sort of policy about this. If they were a larger company then sure.
Now its up to the business how they want to deal with it. Ultimately they can quickly react and MAYBE alienate their larger customer base to be more, or they can do research and polls and figure out how what their customer base wants/is comfortable with.
My thing personally opinion is with the current infrastructure of public spaces such as public pools, with public change rooms, genitals should dictate what change room you go into. Especially in kid friendly spaces. At this time isn't shouldn't be a matter of where the trans person is more comfortable, especially at the sacrifice of others comfort.
