So if Russia, aka 'commies' sought to influence the election, and ostensibly further their interests (what other motive would they have?) with Trump and his ilk in power, doesn't that suggest that Putin perceives the American conservative cabal as more aligned with his 'commie' principles and agenda than the American liberals? Hmmm, ...and yet it's the conservatives that frequently label liberals as 'commies' and Marxists.

How have you established there to be a lie from Trump there? The first statement, "James Clapper, called Mr. Trump to tell him that the leak of the material did not come from U.S. agencies and that the intelligence community had made no judgment on the credibility of the claims," is G&M text, the only expressed source for which is Trump's Twitter post: “James Clapper called me yesterday to denounce the false and fictitious report that was illegally circulated. Made up, phony facts. Too bad!” So, it could be that the G&M are lying, since they provide no other source for their own statement. It could also be that James Clapper expressed himself differently to Trump than they did when speaking in an official manner, at some as-of-yet not cited (in this article) presentation.

Your heart is in the right place Rachel. But please do not be fooled by the Green Lobby into believing this is as easy as it sounds. It is not entirely driven by profit motivations. Wind and sun are intermittent and we have not yet created the needed electrical storage capacity to overcome their inherent limitations. And they are far from cheap. They need subsidies galore. That is why many jurisdictions are raising their electrical rates to end consumers who have to now pay more, much more, because Green is so expensive. Did you know that Germany for example, has had to open and reopen a lot of coal-generated electrical stations in the last few years? They are world leaders in Green, and even they are having big issues.

Perhaps Mr. Wohlforth sees the placement of the PFD check above school funding, troopers, and other government services for the available monies as appealing both to our self-interest and our better selves”. I see the placement of any Permanent Fund monies in front of any State services as greed, not as a reflection of “our better selves”. Perhaps it would be reflective of the personal self interest of a few but it would not be a reflection of our collective self interest. While I am for further reductions in the budget, I am against putting the PFD on a higher level than all other needs of government. I believe the PFD should come in dead last. Perhaps we could see some agreement in making a more reductions in our expenses if everyone had a stake in the outcome. My belief is that the PFD should end before any personal income tax is created to continue to support the payment of the PFD check. While it should “appeal to my self-interest”, I believe it is a terrible idea.

Oh, thought we were talking Trump and Clinton. One was gonna lose. Didn't matter which. Had Hillary won, would you have felt the same that Trump didn't get elected? The "jerk" will never get elected. The "jerk" is someone like a Libertarian, and we see how few want that. Trump and Clinton reflect what the majority of American voters want. Think of them as a mirror of Americans themselves. It's very simple what Americans want: give me everything at the expense of everyone else, protect me at your expense from my mistakes, and kill anyone who cause my unfounded fears. Basically, the spineless.

The Vatican can sponsor as many conferences as it likes addressing the issue of climate change. But when the most powerful nation on earth decides to elect someone who insists that climate change is a hoax perpetrated by the Chinese and then appoints the former CEO of Exxon Mobil to be his Secretary of State, I think we can assume say that no amount of pleading, coaxing, and cajoling from the Vatican will make much difference. Still, I suppose it's worth a try. I mean, what else can you do under the circumstances?

Not all suspect countries are on the travel ban list imposed by the Americans. That takes nothing away from the cold hard fact that these countries on the list richly deserve the stigma assigned to them. If Canada's political stance is one of being the more accommodating northern neighbour, we will find that currying favour has its own bilateral consequences with the American government.

“For over 15 years, She-Male Strokers has been one of the most popular t-girl series,” says Director Sammy Mancini. “I believe the popularity comes from shooting brand new girls as well as girls we’ve shot multiple times, and the fact there’s such a variety from t-girl next door to full-on busty pornstars, brunette to blonde (and everything in between), and a variety of sizes in the she-cock department. There’s something for everyone and fans are going to like at least a few, if not all the girls, on every DVD.”

Could you clarify, something for me? If a person is born with a penis and testes, it is male, right? And if a person is born with a vagina and a uteris, it is female, correct? As far as I know, the physical attributes each human is born with is not a matter of choice. After birth, humans have many years to make a decision as to what their sexuality will be or even may be born understanding what their sexuality will be at sexual maturity. Some may even identify as being a different sex than at birth. I agree that there are perhaps lesser or greater variations of bi-sexuality that permeate all human beings to a lesser or greater extent. The exploration and discovery about ourselves continues and will be either exciting or dreaded, depending on your views and experiences.

I bring that out when YOU start playing your "obey the magisterium without thought or question" tape. You don't like it when I say that you take Adolf Eichmann as your role model. Perhaps you would prefer that I compare you to Stalinists of the 1930s, who obeyed the Party Line, also without thought or question. In either case, your attitude is wrong, if for no other reason than abdicating your responsibility to make moral decisions is sinful -- the sin being sloth.

Coalition governments actually do work because they rely on cooperation, not confrontation (which is inherently counter-productive). They are historically unpopular in North America because we have, unlike Europeans, been conditioned to believe they are weak, when in fact the opposite is true ... anyone who has brought up children knows that confrontation encourages aggression. Your prejudices are showing.

I am used to moving on after a disappointing election. Living in Vermont, I usually vote democratic, but since in such a small state we get to know candidates, sometimes I (we) vote for the republican. But republicans here are republicans: balanced budgets and spending, eliminating inane regulations. But this time is different. I could quickly accept Reagan, Bush I, even Bush II and Nixon -- because I then felt they were basically good people. But with Donald, I feel uncertain, not knowing what the barrages of tweets might mean, what agenda if any is at work, fearing that DT wants actually to hurt people. Sometimes I think President Trump is like the uncle Donny who graces every family, who says mean-spirited things, and whom the rest of the family ignores: "It's just Uncle Donny." But then I recall he is the elected president and then I can't get used to all the bluster and lies. Rather, I feel much shame whenever someone from elsewhere asks me what is happening here. MSW, good piece!

` == Nude beach & controversy == In using the terms I have used in writing and revising this part of this article, I have sought to improve the article for the widest reading audience. I do believe the words I chose when writing this part do serve that end better than some of the changes another keeps making. All opinions are of equal value in Wikipedia, including this part of the article about a legal controversy, even if I feel that I bring to the table both an English degree and a Juris Doctor. I have learned in my experience that some legal terms (e.g., ``upheld`` being misunderstood understood to mean ``held up,” rather than being more correctly understood as an action more akin to ``approving`` a lower court’s decision) can be confusing to all levels of readers, intelligent well-educated readers and average readers alike. Yet, on the other hand, one does not want to completely avoid the use the accurate legal terms for those readers who understand and appreciate their use. This is why I have used parentheses and the like to clarify or expand upon some terms.`

Oh good, an unemotional expert in all things biology and ecology. I've been hoping to run into one of you. Perhaps you can share some of your knowledge, experience, and wisdom. What happens to wolf fecundity rates when you start killing off members of a wolf pack? Then there is that whole lack of an incest taboo in wolves when numbers are low. Won't that hurt genetic diversity? What do packs and pack-members in adjacent ranges do when one wipes out neighboring competitors? If there is an overabundance of ungulates, and no control by predators, what limits their population growth? What's all this hooey about ecological niches anyway? Can killing an entire wolf pack really "almost immediately" boost a caribou population in danger of extinction? What if the wolves aren't providing the bulk of the predatory pressure? Or is wolf/caribou interactions the only variable controlling caribou population size? I patiently await your response, and look forward to learning something.

Compared: Garmin and Samsung Bring New Features to Fitness Bands Everybody talks about self-driving cars and flying drones. But 2014’s biggest tech story may be much less dramatic: fitness wristbands. About 17 million of us will buy them this year. It really is something new up your sleeve. These bands — the Jawbone UP, the various Fitbits, and so on — really aren’t so much about technology as psychology. They monitor your activity and display your fitness progress on your smartphone. They move fitness from your brain’s back burner to a front burner. You get one, and then you make a habit of parking a little farther away. Or taking the stairs. Or you walk a few blocks instead of driving. And you feel better about yourself. Most of these bands also track your sleep, which is amazing, since that third of your life is probably a big mystery box. You don’t have any idea how many times you wake briefly each night, or how much time you spend in deep sleep vs. light sleep. All the bands so far have one drawback or another. The UP band has a sharp endcap that catches on clothing and scratches huggers. The Fitbit Force was recalled for causing skin rashes. The Nike Fuelband team was just pretty much disbanded. Garmin VivofitThe Garmin Vivofit’s headline feature is so important, brilliant, and useful that it nearly offsets all of its failings: The battery lasts for a year. Not seven days, like the UP or the Fitbit. Not three days, like the Samsung. A whole year. That’s important. A fitness tracker is no good if you don’t use it. And having to remove your band and hunt for its USB cable and charge it is a good way to lose your enthusiasm. The Vivofit is also waterproof. You can swim with it, shower with it. This, too, is important — again, because you can wear it all the time. The other great Garmin goodie is the clasp mechanism. The Vivofit is a rubber strap (choice of colors) that overlaps itself and holds tight with pegs and holes. They snap together securely and easily. (Fitbit has never quite mastered the clasp.) The Vivofit has a screen, which is terrific — press a button to view steps taken, miles walked, calories burned, the time, the date, and so on. The screen offers a simple motivational feature: a bright red bar that grows longer when you’ve been sitting still. Getting up and walking around for just a couple of minutes resets it to zero; in the meantime, it’s an incredible reminder of just what a slug you’ve become. The Garmin works with wireless heart-rate monitors, too, of the sort that you strap around your chest while you work out. And unlike other fitness bands, it adjusts your steps-taken goal. If you keep exceeding it, the band sets the goal a little higher. If you never make it, the goal resets lower, so you don’t get discouraged. It’s really good. Now, to get that astonishing battery life, Garmin made a few compromises. First, the screen doesn’t light up. It’s something like the E Ink of the Kindle ebook readers: You can see it only when there’s light in the room. Outdoors, the screen looks fantastic. The one time it’s a liability is when you’re going to bed. To indicate that you’re going to sleep (all bands make you do this), you have to hold down the button until the screen says SLEEP. But if you’ve already shut off the light, or if you’re coming to bed after your partner is asleep — well, you can see the problem. Actually, you can’t see it. That’s the problem. The band doesn’t vibrate, either. Its rivals can give you a little buzz to wake you at a certain time, or to celebrate when you’ve reached your goal. That, too, is a power-saving step, and it’s a huge bummer. I’d rather have six-month battery life and a vibration feature. Like all good fitness bands, the Garmin transmits the latest data to your phone wirelessly, via low-power Bluetooth. The UP and Fitbit bands, however, send this data automatically when you open the corresponding app on your phone. Not the Garmin; you have to hold down the band’s button until the screen says SYNC. That, too, is meant to save battery. One-year life, remember? I wish the Vivofit’s phone app were better. It’s homely and sparse. Right there on the app’s home screen, you should be able to see the graphs of both your activity and your sleep. Instead, you have to tap Details to view your night’s sleep — just silly. You also have to tap Details if you want to see any other day’s records (like yesterday’s). One reason fitness bands work so well is that you can also opt to see the sleep and activity records of your friends and family, if they own the same brand. You know — fitness through humiliation. The Vivofit offers something like this, too, but of course it’s a small player at this point, and you’ll have a hard time finding anyone who has the same band. The Vivofit also comes with a tiny receiver that plugs into your computer by USB so that you can upload your fitness data even if you don’t have a smartphone. That’s smart. Samsung Gear FitIt seems clear that if anyone is going to build a successful smartwatch, it’ll have to include health features. I thought for sure that Samsung’s amazing-looking Gear Fit watch ($200) would be The One. And it’s a touchscreen. Incredibly responsive. You swipe to view the different icons for the watch’s functions. Once you’ve paired your Gear Fit to your smartphone, those functions include the usual step counter and sleep tracker, a Find My Phone app, a stopwatch, a timer, and a remote control for your phone’s music playback. And, as a smartwatch, the Gear Fit also shows you when your phone is receiving a call, email, text message, or Facebook/Twitter update. The Gear Fit even has a heart-rate monitor built into the underside. How’s that for health tracking? Once you start using the Gear Fit, though, you realize that it’s classic Samsung: brilliant, cutting-edge, world-beating hardware — dragged down by weak software and a feeling that nobody was in the design driver’s seat. For starters, this is the only fitness band that requires a certain brand of phone: certain Samsung Galaxy phones and tablets. No other Android phones, no iPhones (and, of course, no Windows phones). That, clearly, is someone’s idea of a marketing move, but it’s self-defeating. This is also the only fitness band that isn’t always tracking your activity. I can’t believe I’m about to type this, but it’s true: Each time you begin walking, you have to wake up the watch with a button-press, scroll to the Pedometer app and tap it, and then tap Start. What? That’s insane. Nobody’s going to bother with all that. You should get step credit all the time. You shouldn’t have to fill out a Form 1040 every time you get up from your desk. Other buttons on the Gear Fit tell it that you’re about to start running, riding your bike, or hiking. Each activity lets you set up time, distance, or calorie goals; in the running mode, the watch tells you to go faster or slower, based on your heart rate. That’s kind of cool. The biking mode uses your phone’s GPS to know how far you’ve biked, so it doesn’t work for stationary bikes. The screen is stunning and colorful — indoors. In the sun, it’s a slab of shiny black. There’s a High Brightness mode, but it’s still no match for sunshine — and, anyway, it turns itself off after five minutes. Since the screen is shaped like a stick of gum, you might wonder: Does the text appear horizontally or vertically? That’s up to you. The vertical orientation lets you hold your arm comfortably. It works great for big, simple text like your step count. Text messages and email subject lines, however, appear with only one or two words on a line, which looks silly. If you opt for horizontal orientation instead, you have to twist your arm like a contortionist to read it. The phone apps are also typical Samsung: confusing. You use one app for changing the watch’s settings and a second app, called S Health, for looking at your uploaded health information. S Health, furthermore, doesn’t show your sleep data until you download a separate sub-app. Even then, you have to open up three different sub-apps to see your health data: one each for steps, sleep, and heart rate. There’s no single dashboard. And now, a public-service message: I had an awful first night wearing the Gear Fit. It kept buzzing me awake with every email, message, and social-media update. That’s before I noticed the “Do not disturb” option. It’s hidden in the Sleep app and is available only when you’ve turned on “I’m sleeping” mode. The watch’s screen, which is very bright in the dark, also woke me a couple of times. That’s because it’s designed to pop on when you move your wrist up to your face, saving you the trouble of pressing the Wake button when you want to look at the screen. You’ll want to turn that option off, though — both because of the nighttime thing, and because even when you’re awake and upright, it works only sometimes. Note, too, that the watch alerts you for every single email or none at all. There’s no way to choose a list of important people whose messages you care about. Samsung offers other smartwatches, by the way, like the Gear 2 and the Gear Neo. They offer many of the same functions. And they let you install new apps, which the Gear Fit does not. They are, however, big, heavy, full-blown watches. Every time I review a recent Samsung product, I wind up smacking my forehead. The convoluted software, the half-baked features that don’t really work, the featuritis…. You don’t need a professional critic to spot these weaknesses. You could do it. Your kid could do it. All Samsung has to do is hire (and trust) one former designer from Apple or the new Microsoft, and boom: No more dumb, murky designs. In the meantime, the Garmin and the Samsung represent a fine snapshot of this moment in fitness-tech time. They’re breakthroughs, in battery life and screen design, respectively, but they’re still works in progress. Fitness bands are improving year by year — but at this point, they’re not so much MacBook Airs as Apple II’s.

Trudeau thought he was getting a bright, financial guy in Morneau for finance minister. I have concerns on the cognitive abilities of Morneau given his inability to foresee problems with his tax changes. It is clear he inherited his business and wealth and seems like he wants to decrease mobility between income classes. i.e. protect his and Trudeau's wealth and punish the hardworking and risk takers.

a doctriniare evolutionist might hypthesize that an ample bosom at some stage of evolution denoted an ability to nurse children and, thereby, was an advantage to selection. Who knows? We do know that the male homo sapien (especially in Western Culture) considers such endowment to be titillating (again no pun intended). Personally, I've always been more impressed with a sound foundation in social science and an awareness of world affairs. Of course I'm 74. regards, Gary Crum

6. It is, but if we change it to the proposed system then we end up like Europe where all the same parties are entrenched (essentially no difference than it is for us now), and they simply create coalitions to subvert the will of the populace (they've already done that before in Canada) and get whatever they want to do themselves any way. Universal suffrage itself, is a problem. It's mob rule essentially, just less direct. Not everyone deserves to vote.

Building a Tertiary Sewage Treatment Plant in Victoria BC, to achieve the same result that already happens in the cold, turbulent, well oxygenated waters, is also inefficient and costly, but both the Federal and Provincial Government ordered the Regional District to build a plant. I pay more already in waste water treatment fees for the yet to be built tertiary sewage plant than I would as a premium for using an EV instead of a 7 litre / 100 km car to get around town. Both the USA and Canadian experts who reviewed the Victoria Primary Sewage treatment concluded that it does not affect Canadian waters, let alone Washington state waters and beaches. Ogden point, just a few km from Victoria's Primary Sewage treatment outfall, is one of the world's top diving destination spots, because of the health and diversity of the marine environment. That rating was granted by Rodale's Scuba Magazine, among others.

Of course science is irrelevant. God, a life after death, and morality are all not subject to a scientific analysis. Silliness such as alleging that the Church taught “the earth being the center of the universe”, which it did not, doesn’t change that. The Church is not making ignorant and vengeful pronouncements against anyone. The Church is in fact growing, not shrinking.

I disagree with the premise of this article. Drabinsky clearly had success in the theatre world. Was Vincent van Gogh unsuccessful because he lived on his brother's gifts and died penniless? Was Steve Jobs unsuccessful when he was fired from running Apple because the company didn't make enough profit, in spite of the products he created? Evaluating what a person produces normally transcends financial concerns.

They didn't prove that teacher was killed by a wolf...they said evidence pointed to wolves. I always thought it might be wild dogs. Dogs abused in the villages have been known to break free of their constraints and form packs. And they have a grudge against human beings.

R.S.L.- if you can find one - and I literally mean one- piece of actual evidence that supports your sexist and Leftist claim that she is victimized and despises her husband- that would just be swell. Thanks.

Yes, Nixon said that, but he was quoting Teddy Roosevelt. Nixon never had an original thought, you know that. Unless it was about some means of slithering through a crack in the Constitution.

Honolulu could face a similar legal battle if the council passes the island wide sit-lie ban.“They’re going to walk themselves right into a lawsuit if they pass that,” said Nickolas Kacprowski, an attorney at Alston Hunt Floyd and Ing. Still, Councilman Ernie Martin wrote that his bill is an answer to a homelessness problem that he said has “taken possession of public areas to the detriment of the tax paying general public.” It's like the City Council has forgotten that even homeless people are still citizens of the State of Hawaii and County of Honolulu and even as homeless, they still pay excise taxes on purchases they make; So at it's core definition, even the Homeless are part of "the General Public" at large. As to the City Council's answers to the homeless problem, neither they nor the Mayor have come up with any viable solutions; as what they have tried, has failed to garner much support from the homeless, who don't seem to want to use the shelters available. Total fail

Oh brother. First, this thing is nothing more than another Trump campaign flier. It panders to those that voted for him. Congress is NOT going to pass this. This is like those closeout sales that "slash" prices by first jacking up the price, then say they're being "slashed". What's gonna happen is the career politicians are going to whittle away the parts that will garner them the most votes at home, blow their horn that they saved their constituency, and Trump's going to point the finger at Congress and cry foul. You're still getting stiffed, just not as much as this, and they'll make it seem to their voters that it was the other guy and that they did the right thing.

From the article. "The government must therefore also encourage people to refrain from using legal pot until they are 25, when their brains are fully formed. Which will be tough, because by far the biggest cohort of pot users are people aged 18-25." Tha alone is reason enough NOT to legalize this stuff. Justin is a fool playing for popular support. A good leader, a strong leader sometimes takes the route that is not popular. He's no leader.

Agreed that firing into the air as a "warning shot" to a dog is a silly suggestion. But the shooter could have simply placed himself between the dog and the child.

"Svetovid, I think it's reasonable to include statements that seem ""ambiguous"" or subjective, if the surrounding text is clear that ""this is what the person/group believes"", and not ""this is substantiated, empirical fact"". Destiny, or karma, is an important concept in anthroposophy and Waldorf education. Whether the reality of karma can be objectively substantiated is not the subject of this article. "

Здравствуйте. Я нашел вас в списке возможных кандидатов на статус патрулирующего. У вас уже есть флаг автопатрулируемого, значит, вы понимаете требования к патрулированным версиям статей. Почему бы вам не стать патрулирующим? Из 814 тысяч статей досмотрено 736 тыс., из них в 97 тысячах имеются недосмотренные правки; еще 78 тысяч не досмотрено вообще. Из 127 тысяч файлов не проверено 67 тысяч - больше половины. На 781 тысячу участников (и это не считая анонимов!) всего 1186 патрулирующих, так что ваша, даже малейшая, помощь будет значимой! Патрулирование - не обязанность, а право, которое у вас отберут только за нарушения (вы можете не патрулировать хоть год). С уважением,

I doubt the reason there are few male teachers in elementary school has anything to do with pay as the gap between elementary school and secondary school wages is peanuts and since almost all teachers with experience earn more than a top 10% wage (average around $90,000, which is approximately $40,000 more than the average Cdn wage), they are already in the elite for pay. Rather, it is your second point that makes sense as most men don't want to be bothered with teaching basic concepts to younger students.

Looking @ the fourteen Board Members of our Provincial Crown one has to wonder about the provenance of some of them, one was rather hoping to see a Nobel in Physics, which of course would light up the Chief Engineer & indeed, cause the others to re-consider their own roles & whether they know what electricity actually is: also one has heard of 28 year olds without any serious qualifications making $180k, how could all this possibly be?

Seattle is a hateful place, much like Portland. Shocking they think this will raise any revenue; obviously very static thinking. Just how difficult is it for a wealthy person to move out of the Seattle city limits?
