He also doesn't have the resources that the Mayor does (internal numbers) to come up with an ultimate plan, but he's very open to discuss various options that we DO have.

Consider these basic facts: 1. An income tax would take $200 million from Alaska families per year. 2. $800 million in secret corporate welfare payments is made to Big Oil per year. 3. $7 billion dollars of our oil is taken per year, at current prices, tax free. 4. If oil prices rise a little bit, then $11 billion dollars of our oil will be taken annually, tax free. Every single legislator that votes to impose an income tax is voting against Alaska families, and against common sense. The corruption in this state seems to have no bounds.	00	not toxic

Some thing is not right here. Rogers is still beating profit expectations and rewarding their shareholders. I can only surmise that their performance can be attributed to their underhanded practices at confusing customers with their purposely designed bundled service plans and questionable customer retention strategies. Rogers' goal is to squeeze as much money out of their customers and deliver as little value as possible, which is admirable from a business fundamentals point of view but the lack of competition in Canada in this space means that Rogers can screw with their customers quite a bit with minimal negative effect (only lost 18k TV subscribers!!!). I can only hope for a new global model to come along that will punish Rogers for all the wrongs to its customer base.	00	not toxic

To be fair to Mr. Jenkins the Alaska State Constitution reads: "All income from the permanent fund shall be deposited in the general fund unless otherwise provided by law. [Amended 1976]. The clause "unless otherwise provided by law" was the amendment that allowed for the Statute that sets up the 50% payout from the Permanent Fund Earnings. The other 50% of the Earnings has not been used to date to pay for government expenses. So how can anyone argue that the Governor had to take half the dividend to pay for State expenses when they haven't been using half the funds that were already available ? No, the People's half is not enshrined in the Constitution, but in the AK Constitution it does say that the Resources of this State shall be used for the Maximum Benefit of the People. (paraphrased) This is the mandate that is fulfilled in the Permanent Fund Dividend. And, no, it doesn't say that the Dividend can't be touched without a vote of the People, but if We the People are sharehold	00	not toxic

Continuing to LG: For reasons such as these it would be advisable to make a further distinction, not just between "small-t tradition" and "Large-T Tradition," but also between "Deep Large-T Tradition" and "Shallow Large-T Tradition." As for your "I don't believe Jesus could err," etc., right, given the faith in Jesus such as the Christian church professes, so that allowing that the Jesus of faith could err would be a kind of contradiction in terms. By contrast, the historical Jesus most certainly could err, and seems to have done so on at least one important matter, viz. the apocalyptic timetable. And it is that fallible Jesus who provided the data from which a small number of first-century Christians constructed their respective portraits, without themselves necessarily understanding all the implications of their work. And we should note that the Holy Spirit did not demand uniformity, but allowed for such limited understanding to be the seed of much subsequent fruitful discourse.	00	not toxic

If Warsaw Uprising Polish resistance fighters could build working STEN-like submachine guns under the watchful eyes of the Nazis over 70 years ago, then I suppose even a Hawaii-born shade tree gunsmith could do at least as well. As I've pointed out (in vain) to six readers here who staunchly support the fantasy that an official prohibition of firearms can always be equated with increased safety for all, then our major U.S. prisons should all be havens of tranquility, with little or no chance of murder, physical assault, intimidation or rape. But are they? For those who care about such things, there was a celebrated case of an American prison inmate who managed to build himself an electrically primed and repeating handgun using homemade metallic cartridges, all while under the supervision of prison staff.

"Michelle Obama's staff consisted of 18 employees who got paid nearly $1.5 million in salary in 2010, according to the administration's Annual Report to Congress on White House Staff." So a 'First Husband's' staff should be of equal size. At those salaries, he might be able to have access to quite a few 'interns' to meet his needs.

Consider these basic facts: 1. An income tax would take $200 million from Alaska families per year. 2. $800 million in secret corporate welfare payments is made to Big Oil per year. 3. $7 billion dollars of our oil is taken per year, at current prices, tax free. 4. If oil prices rise a little bit, then $11 billion dollars of our oil will be taken annually, tax free. Every single legislator that votes to impose an income tax is voting against Alaska families, and against common sense. The corruption in this state seems to have no bounds.

Some thing is not right here. Rogers is still beating profit expectations and rewarding their shareholders. I can only surmise that their performance can be attributed to their underhanded practices at confusing customers with their purposely designed bundled service plans and questionable customer retention strategies. Rogers' goal is to squeeze as much money out of their customers and deliver as little value as possible, which is admirable from a business fundamentals point of view but the lack of competition in Canada in this space means that Rogers can screw with their customers quite a bit with minimal negative effect (only lost 18k TV subscribers!!!). I can only hope for a new global model to come along that will punish Rogers for all the wrongs to its customer base.

To be fair to Mr. Jenkins the Alaska State Constitution reads: "All income from the permanent fund shall be deposited in the general fund unless otherwise provided by law. [Amended 1976]. The clause "unless otherwise provided by law" was the amendment that allowed for the Statute that sets up the 50% payout from the Permanent Fund Earnings. The other 50% of the Earnings has not been used to date to pay for government expenses. So how can anyone argue that the Governor had to take half the dividend to pay for State expenses when they haven't been using half the funds that were already available ? No, the People's half is not enshrined in the Constitution, but in the AK Constitution it does say that the Resources of this State shall be used for the Maximum Benefit of the People. (paraphrased) This is the mandate that is fulfilled in the Permanent Fund Dividend. And, no, it doesn't say that the Dividend can't be touched without a vote of the People, but if We the People are sharehold

Continuing to LG: For reasons such as these it would be advisable to make a further distinction, not just between "small-t tradition" and "Large-T Tradition," but also between "Deep Large-T Tradition" and "Shallow Large-T Tradition." As for your "I don't believe Jesus could err," etc., right, given the faith in Jesus such as the Christian church professes, so that allowing that the Jesus of faith could err would be a kind of contradiction in terms. By contrast, the historical Jesus most certainly could err, and seems to have done so on at least one important matter, viz. the apocalyptic timetable. And it is that fallible Jesus who provided the data from which a small number of first-century Christians constructed their respective portraits, without themselves necessarily understanding all the implications of their work. And we should note that the Holy Spirit did not demand uniformity, but allowed for such limited understanding to be the seed of much subsequent fruitful discourse.

If Warsaw Uprising Polish resistance fighters could build working STEN-like submachine guns under the watchful eyes of the Nazis over 70 years ago, then I suppose even a Hawaii-born shade tree gunsmith could do at least as well. As I've pointed out (in vain) to six readers here who staunchly support the fantasy that an official prohibition of firearms can always be equated with increased safety for all, then our major U.S. prisons should all be havens of tranquility, with little or no chance of murder, physical assault, intimidation or rape. But are they? For those who care about such things, there was a celebrated case of an American prison inmate who managed to build himself an electrically primed and repeating handgun using homemade metallic cartridges, all while under the supervision of prison staff. I would guess had he been so inclined, a prison-made late medieval style longsword (as popularized by Aragorn, son of Arathorn in the LotR movies) would have been child's play too.

Once the N-line opens, that will be my closer service (although even then I rarely have occasion to go downtown now that I'm retired). Kinda makes me wonder why they bothered with the B-Line to Westminister Station at all though, if the G-Line is gonna cover 2/3rds of those stops anyway? If we're talking 2040+ before any more of it gets built, seems like just focusing on the G-line and getting it done sooner would have made more sense.

Peskov said the investigation was an internal matter for the United States which Russia was not involved in, but was following with interest from afar. ---- In the words of Sun Tzu (Art of War): "When the enemy is in the process of destroying himself, stay out of his way."
