In 2013 Marble said:
“When you look at life expectancy, there are problems in the black race. Sickle-cell anemia is something that comes up. Diabetes is something that’s prevalent in the genetic makeup, and you just can’t help it. Although I’ve got to say,” she continued at the time.
“I’ve never had better barbecue and better chicken and ate better in my life than when you go down South and you, I mean, I love it. Everybody loves it.”
There are plenty of genetic markers that influence each and every racial and ethnic segment of the population of Earth... Why did the Senator single out African Americans?
And, WHY would he be tossed from his den for asking an honest question?

What you're talking about is hate and unfounded fear, period, no matter how much you try to claim it isn't so. The TFW program has existed for decades mostly for seasonal, low-paying work in agriculture and fishing and a few other areas and it mostly achieved its goals in that very limited form. Harper expanded that to an extreme level and unnecessarily. This has since been corrected by the new government. This article has nothing to do with the TFW program. The article is addressing the prejudice and discrimination that does in fact exist, most predominantly among the "I want my country back" tribe, to which you apparently belong. | 00 | not toxic |

This entire episode stands in stark contrast to the successful effort by Astrid Lobo Gajiwala to draft the the bishops’ “Gender Policy of the Church of India” (2010). Of course, she has always stated publicly that the policy was just a start. Christine Schenk interviewed her for Global Sisters in 2015: http://globalsistersreport.org/equality/india-truly-outstanding-road-map-creating-gender-equality-24091
Fascinating, because while the policy was a breakthrough, the bishops just had to put their own stamp on it, replacing the commonsense language of the women with "feminine genius," not guaranteeing equal representation where it was written in, etc. | 00 | not toxic |

Thanks, Mr. Havelock, for pointing out that Alaskans own our state's resource wealth and the Permanent Fund in common. It's a problem that many residents are unaware of Alaska's history, unique Owner State model and shareholder rights. Now, the Legislature and Governor are railroading Alaskans toward a specific fix for the budget problem - all their plans involve changing the Fund and PFD without public consent. We must not allow this THEFT of the Peoples' money. Take the PFD OFF the table. NO POMV without a public vote. Then, the legislators will be more motivated to consider the many options for a solutions (like government reform, taxes, selling and leasing assets, using Fund earnings by public consent) and survey Alaskans for what we services we want and how we want to pay for them. Visit and share this website for the Permanent Fund Defenders and join the fight to protect the PFD. www.pfdak.com STOP THE RAID | 00 | not toxic |

Bob, there is an Adventism mindset of it being the final stop, therefore the only one, for modeling life. You have described what I concluded many years ago that there are countless ways to conduct life, all legitimate, outside of this one version.
Adventism promotes the myth that it is the holder of the final solution for personal and universal history. When I was a pastor I watched parents in tears because their child had adopted a different life. Their last resort was to pray them back into the "Truth" so they would see them in heaven.
I have no animas toward Adventism. My choice to opt out was not out of anger, or a result of "backsliding," but a conscious intellectual judgment. Hell doesn't await anyone (or their children) who follow their, mind, heart and conscience. | 00 | not toxic |
Mr. Wohlforth's commentary appears to suggest that Alaska Natives are nothing but poor innocent victims of a racist justice system. His tone is extremely patronizing and I wonder if he is playing the "white man's burden" role here. This is the old Kipling concept that white man like him, must take care of the poor natives who cannot take care of themselves. Bit old fashioned however gallant, Mr. Wohlforth. Nearly all native inmates I encountered at ACC West, knew wholly that they did wrong. Funny thing about native people are that they are extremely honest folks, even when they did wrong. More then any other ethnic groups I have run into, including my fellow Asian Americans, native people stand out in their honesty in acknowledging that they did wrong. Few who claims innocence, are those coming in from probation violations and some of them got just cause to be unhappy, being violated for petty violations. Maybe that is where Mr. Wohlforth should take a look at. | 11 | toxic |

I have a real problem with the Canadian government presuming to speak for its citizens, who strongly disapprove of land grabbing anywhere, yet tell Israel, and the world listening, that we approve of its blatant occupation and outright theft of land in Palestine. Clearly, Israel never has had any intention of two states, of allowing the Palestinians to think they have any right to keeping their own state, but every intention of 'settling' Israelis there. We have an old and long history of land-grabbing by the English in Canada and, other than the most crass business leaders, would never set our seal on any state intent on stealing land anywhere. | 00 | not toxic |
I feel your frustration Broncos country, I'm defiantly with you guys, when as a team you can't run the ball against the worst run defense in the league, it defiantly going to be a long season. At quarterback Trevor needs to get better, but your offensive coordinator has to have more plays in his arsenal than we saw today. I saw 2 may 3 screens the whole game, and when they were called it was in obvious passing situations.
This will be a long season unless John Elway makes a move or 2 to get some OL help:

"Americans are questioning the value of their global leadership, so countries like Canada have to be prepared to step."
Step how? Step where? The missing word would appear to be either "up" or "in."
I beg to differ. No, Canada does NOT need to spend $62 billion additional dollars. Whatever spending is done should be allocated to defend and safeguard Canadians here, at home. Any military money spent in the Middle East or Africa is wasted. Buy the jets, build the ships, beef up cyber defense and help prevent radicalization that endangers Canadians right here. That's it, that's all.
Americans are slow to learn: it's taken them close to 70 years to finally "question the value of their global [military] leadership"--or whatever else you might want to call it (and plenty of words come to mind.) Let's learn some lessons from them, Canada. | 00 | not toxic |

Before the LRT construction, I used to walk west on the north side of Eglinton toward Eglinton West Station. Countless times, cars turning from Eglinton onto the Allen would blow through red lights and almost hit pedestrians who were crossing legally at the base of the Allen. Even though this was occurring just 100 feet from a police station, I never saw any enforcement. Adjustments were made to the timing of the traffic lights, so the City was clearly aware there was a problem, but no one could be bothered to hand out tickets and demerit points to dangerous drivers. There were some occasions where arrests would have been appropriate. In the words of my hero, Donald Trump: sad! | 00 | not toxic |

While the decisions to remove children from homes may be justified, the failure on the part of OCS to actively work towards reunification and the flat refusal to place them with family in many cases is not. My own family member had a child taken into custody and OCS failed to follow up on names of family given to them 3 days afterwards or notify those individuals whose names were given to them by the parent - in violation of federal law. They refused to return phone calls or allow family visitation.
After only 6 months the primary goal was changed to adoption and from that point forward the main focus was on the foster parents. Any family member who tried for placement was told they didn't have a bond with the child or knowledge of his medical needs. Duh! They shut us out of his life and then used it against us.
It should be against the law for the bond with foster parents to be placed above the rights of the child to be with their bio family. Period. | 00 | not toxic |

"Astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, I observe that Saturn is in Leo. Horologically, I deduce that the time is approximately a quarter past three. Theologically, I can see that God is all powerful and that we are small and insignificant.

Need one read a sentence further after reading MSW's confession that he thinks a writer gains consolation by writing a piece that 'ignites controversy'?
"There are very few things in this life more gratifying to a columnist than to pen a sentence that ignites a controversy."
Wow.
Read no further.
A Catholic writer who lets his intellect "attach value" to such an end is in need of long term spiritual coaching, and should out of charity suspend his writing work for the division & heat and disunity it causes or contributes to.
Rather, I think a well-formed and properly tempered Catholic writer might gain some consolation from seeing people draw closer to Jesus Christ, amending their lives, increasing their self-gift to others, etc by reading one's work.
Yet an even higher disposition than this would be to have a "pure intention", that is, to produce a work for the principal reason of loving God!

The oil companies have been making record profits from Alaska for 40 years, and now that they are not making such profits from the sale of our oil , they are being gifted billions of dollars of " state " monies while they cut their labor force and slow down production.
They are still a very wealthy corporation , and no one is suggesting that we ask them to pay more to Alaska. What is needed, however, is a complete end to " credits "going to the oil companies while they are de-mobilizing, and downsizing their operations in the state.
We have a Republican Legislature that works for the oil companies, and against the best interest of the state's residents. They are asking the states residents to pay for all of the services that they are charged with providing, but continuing to fund the profit margin of a declining industry simply to maintain their personal wealth and please their oil cartel bosses.

On the matter of the University of Winnipeg's compulsory policy: As a student who graduated high school prior to the implementation of the provincial curriculum update (Ontario's Indigenous Education Strategy) that requires Ontario elementary and secondary schools to teach students about residential schools, treaties, and more, I had no knowledge of reconciliation before university.
If my university were to adopt a compulsory policy like the University of Winnipeg, students like myself, who missed out on any formal education about Indigenous culture and history, would benefit greatly by developing empathy and a better understanding of Canada's diversity. Students would also simply be educated on our country's history. That said, I'm curious as to why this article seems to easily deem the Winnipeg university's "too far"? | 00 | not toxic |

What you are seeing in the GOP today, generally, is what I consider to be the final stand of the Tea Party, Birthers and everyone else who has taken the party so far right, and kicked out those moderate "Ford" Republicans that still stuck around after they got decimated by the Reagan wave.
Literally, this election cycle is their Waterloo, as they now have a candidate that espouses their views and down-ticket candidates that are all on the same page - and they are all going to war with the liberals and moderates. What the Tea Party is about to find out is, upon the defeat of Trump, Ms. Stenger and others who espouse a racist, sexist, bigoted philosophy is that it will be an absolute defeat. That will, in turn, give more moderate voices in the Republican Party enough power to truly oust the Tea Party/Freedom Caucus/Sean Hannity/Breitbart pols from the mainstream and relegate their entire movement to the trash heap of political history. | 00 | not toxic |

McCarthy did the same thing to homosexuals and tried to ruin their reputations through exposure. It is interesting you mentioned Murrow. It was Murrow using television that destroyed McCarthy's reputation. It was the equal time offered by Murrow where McCarthy destroyed his own reputation. Instead of addressing a single one of Murrow's substantive allegations, McCarthy attacked Murrow. In some ways McCarthy was both made and destroyed by the new emerging medium of television.
I see prosecutorial abuse as more similar to McCarthy than I do regular politics. It is in criminal investigations and prosecutions that reputations are truly ruined. I'm much happier letting the voters decide what to make of HRC and her shenanigans at the State Dept. I cringe when Trump says she ought to be in jail.

In environmental terms, it is a huge mistake to extract and burn any fossil fuel, including methane. It is being done in many states because widespread fracking caused a glut of cheap methane. A carbon tax, such as the one described in this article, would help to address this.
New nuclear plants are problematic in the US. They are extraordinarily expensive and take so many years to permit, design, and build that they are not proving to be much help in climate terms. Also, the electricity they produce is too expensive for them to be economically viable.
Photovoltaic cells, by far the most common type of solar panel, use only common earth elements. Some thin-film solar cells use rare earth elements which are recycled at end of life.

Mark, there's been no published evidence in support of the AGW hypothesis. I can't cite negative (a lack of) evidence, that's the whole point; a lack of evidence. There's just nothing positive, no confirming observation.
Physics, and specifically thermodynamics, are evidence based sciences. If a person advances a hypothesis, they're required to present a repeatable experiment that supports it, or at the very least repeatable observation of the natural world. That hasn't happened.
Can you cite a single published paper that has repeatably shown a causal relation between CO2 and temperature? No. You can't. None exist.
