I have reference materials from the late 80's (when I finally took lessons and learned to fly).  The son of a friend is possibly interested in flying.  Some of this material would still be useful for a new student, yes?

Obviously the airspace designations have changed as well as the weather briefings/information and some avonics, but airplanes still fly the same and basic weather information is still the same, yes?

"Freshman Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass) introduced a sweeping criminal justice reform resolution this week that calls for decriminalizing consensual sex work, abolishing cash bail and solitary confinement, and shrinking the overall jail and prison population among a slate of other policies."

Apparently pressley is focused on the number of people in prison rather than any consideration of those convicts having committed crimes and been, ya know, convicted.  I wonder if pressley has ever considered that many of the people in her district are victims of crimes. 

she even managed to throw in violation of our constitutional rights:  "(vii) reducing gun violence by regulating manufacturers, limiting firearm production and sales, including a permanent ban on assault-type weapons, a mass gun buyback program,".  pressley apparently doesn't care about violence and can't acknowledge that people commit crimes, not devices.

The more impeachment shi^H^Htuff spews forth from the democrats, the more stocks are rising.  Don't they realize they are helping the rich get richer?

Brookline Massachusetts is the first MA city/town to ban natural gas and oil in new buildings.  The ban requires new buildings and major rehabs to go all electric.

"In the end, this moves us away from a future that is reliant on fossil fuels"

It is left as an exercise for the reader to list at least a couple of a fallacies with this ban...

What's the bottomline difference between these terms, especially wrt relationships between countries?

Don Cherry has been fired for "divisive" remarks, calling immigrants "you people" (oh the horror) and berating immigrants for not honoring Canadian veterns.

The NHL and Rogers Sportsnet can pound sand. 

yup - that was the headline of an opinion piece in the Boston Herald today (Wednesday).

The writer is Joyce Ferriabough Bolling, someone who bleed liberal liberal liberal all the time.

She laments about the cost of eye drops, she cries about the cost of prescription medicine, she decries "big pharma" getting sky-high profits, she complains that a company has the audicity to discontinue production of a cancer drug (calling it "unconscionable" - I guess she'd be ok with forcing the company to continue production)

Not once does she consider how much it costs to develop and produce medicine.  Not   one   single   time.


Not once
