This proposed project is not a good idea and has no business being suggested for the rural area of Eklutna. There are many reasons why, but quite simply there are no utilities, save electricity, adequate road access, and no access to transportation. Also, a "work camp" of this nature is not permissible under zoning codes. Legislators and local authorities just need to do their jobs and apply common sense.

What's up with T&M Towing? They hired a repeat rapist as a tow truck driver? Gee, don't you feel safe calling for a tow on a deserted road from them? I'm not saying ex-cons shouldn't be given a second or even a third chance. However, there are certain jobs that just don't fit certain criminals. An embezzler won't be hired at a bank or investment firm, a drunk driver wouldn't be hired as a taxi driver and a rapist shouldn't be hired for any job where he might be alone with a woman.

It can be a mess, I agree. My wife had her purse stolen from a grocery store. It took months to get everything squared away. We belong to a membership store known for bulk-quantity common household items. Despite the fact their membership card has the member's picture on it, the thief made off with thousands of dollars by purchasing tires and other auto parts with my wife's stolen checks and then returning them for cash at a different location. The thief was stopped only when a clerk called my wife because a check had the wrong date on it. The store's security officer was not pleased when we told him all this. Then, a Colorado DMV clerk wanted to re-issue my wife's driver's license with the exact same ID number, despite the fact we reported the license as stolen. My wife said "no way". We had to get the police report, but DMV agreed to issue her license with a new number. The thief got caught, and the membership store had her prosecuted for fraud, and so the thief is now in prison.

All wishful thinking based on expectations of what PERSON might do and how the economy might react. last year the US economy grew at 1.6% - a little below the average pace of the last cycle.

Given the complexity of this issue I think this has been a thoughtful process with a reasonable outcome. PERSON's well written letter closes this chapter and points the way to a more positive future. One beneficial result is that many people have learned more about Oregon's history, good and bad, and particularly that of Deady. For those whose interest in Deady and Oregon history has been whetted I enthusiastically recommend his two-volume diary edited by PERSON. It's my belief that this whole drawn-out Deady renaming issue was at least partly the result of a misunderstanding of history. Apparently the Black Student Task Force students were misled in to believing that Deady had been a member of the Knights of the Golden Circle, a KKK-style organization active in Lane County during the Civil War era. Had this been true he would have qualified for denaming. While Deady was a powerful supporter of slavery he would never have joined the violent lawless KGC.

I'm reposting because I left off some pretty important qualifying words in my last sentence (it was late): <<What makes you think I didn't think about it? I've read it several times in the past, and PERSON (whoops, misspelled his name above) PERSON is always worth considering; he's extremely well versed in history and Catholic everything. PERSON doesn't contest that human life begins at conception. He contests that human life at conception is a person.>> You may think the distinction between life and personhood is "absurd on its face," but that is an opinion by no means definitive. Again, PERSON doesn't argue that a conceptus isn't human life, so your scientific argument is moot. By the way, I disagree with PERSON that abortion isn't a religious issue. But it's also a health issue. And it's also an issue about bodily autonomy. "Pro-abortion types" is propagandistic bunk. Most pro-choice supporters concede that abortion is morally charged.

Some Anglicans have been meeting together for decades with some Orthodox. Ditto some Anglicans and Old Catholics, some Anglicans and Catholics, some Anglicans and Lutherans.

The Orthodox women deacons are what Latin Rite Catholics call sisters - they are not in orders. The rank and file don't have a say in whether women are ordained in Orthodoxy.

The problem with something like sewage is there is no way to have more than 1 so eventually you get a monopoly and BOOM exploitation. So we trust the government to do the job rather than privates. Problem they are human too. I believe the USA problem is a matter of size. The USA is just to large to actually service its population. The further your money travels the less it will help you. Eg. If you pay taxes or buy multi-national goods that go to Washington the likelihood that it will help you as a person are zero. However if you tax spend money at a local mom and pop store the likelihood that that money will return help you and your community and build YOUR bridge is VERY large.

With a $2-3 Billion per year deficit and current $2-3 Billion replenishment of the Earnings Reserve (or direct funnel to General Fund as proposed by SB 26 and the Budget) our 'savings' could last 10-13 years. This action would allow for plenty of time to make meaningful cuts like reducing our 54 school districts into 25-30 regions; eliminating 6+ month empty/vacant positions; reducing out-going step allocations to incoming employee levels; forming a state bank that holds the general, reserve and in-department emergency funds, allowing for self-bonding of projects and increasing those funds ... there have been many excellent suggestions. It's not that no one's sharing ideas, it's that not many people are listening. The best solution for Alaskans is for the legislature to NOT pass the budget, with the PF restructuring inside of it, and NOT pass the Income Tax and NOT pass the PF Restructuring and PASS the cash tax credit elimination without increasing THOSE taxes.

Superb article. As a teacher, I coached various school teams over several decades. I also coached soccer (recreational) for 10 years. A perennial problem with soccer was that most kids wanted to be The Striker and score goals. Kids who were out-of-shape often preferred defence or keeper. Usually we had a willing goalie but he/she became demoralized unless they had competent defenders. Decisions about positioning and play time belong with the coaches. We did not mind if parents provided some initial suggestions and info on their kid's prior experiences, etc but at some point parents need to trust in the judgement and the fairness of the coaches. Another thing: it's wonderful to have supportive parents who cheer the team on. It is not helpful to have parents who criticize the referee's decisions or make comments about opposing players. It certainly is not helpful when a parent micro-manages their kid's play and continually instructs them to move up, run faster, attack the ball, etc.
