Republicans don’t have a soul to fight for

October 20, 2020

first_imgCategories: Letters to the Editor, OpinionWhile reading a political article in the paper the other day, a line jumped right out at me. This article described recent Republican Party infighting and contained the line in question, “the fight for the party’s soul.” Is this a joke? It should be obvious to even the most casual observer that today’s Republican Party has long since sold out its very soul. Judging by their behavior lately, I think it’s safe to speculate just who bought their soul and where it might now reside. They can fight over it all they want, but it won’t do them any good.If their soul is where I think it is, there’s absolutely no chance that they’ll ever get it back. David MorganSchroon LakeMore from The Daily Gazette:EDITORIAL: Beware of voter intimidationEDITORIAL: Urgent: Today is the last day to complete the censusEDITORIAL: Thruway tax unfair to working motoristsCuomo calls for clarity on administering vaccineEDITORIAL: Find a way to get family members into nursing homeslast_img read more

Further wolf protection is wrong for U.S.

October 20, 2020

first_imgCategories: Letters to the Editor, OpinionIn the March 18 letter to the editor, Jacqueline de Witt pleaded for [continued] federal protection of wolves to help them spread into New York. She indicated that this is needed to “perfect the ecological order.” In the western United States the reintroduction of wolves has decimated elk herds, taking hunting opportunities away from a wide variety of humans, from professional guides to lower income individuals for whom a freezer full of elk meat (or lack thereof) has a substantial economic impact. Federal protections continued long after wolf numbers far exceeded the reintroduction targets. Further spread of wolves will further decimate game animal populations.Human hunting is regulated by seasons and limits designed by wildlife biologists to maintain healthy herds. Wolves are not regulated, and unlike humans, wolves feast when new calves or fawns are born. Omitting a description of canine hunting, does anyone claim that a wolf kill is ever as humane as a well placed gun shot?Wolves avoid human contact in proportion to the threat that humans pose. Predatory attacks on people were once common in Europe and have happened sporadically in North America. “Child lifting” by wolves is still a problem in India. Protected wolves will be emboldened and risks to our rural margins will increase.I must ask Ms. de Witt: in a world with many hungry humans, is your aesthetic sense of ecological order so important that we should ignore those risks and squander a fully sustainable supply of organic, free-range protein to canine predators?Norman PerazzoGlenvilleMore from The Daily Gazette:EDITORIAL: Beware of voter intimidationEDITORIAL: Thruway tax unfair to working motoristsEDITORIAL: Find a way to get family members into nursing homesEDITORIAL: Urgent: Today is the last day to complete the censusFoss: Should main downtown branch of the Schenectady County Public Library reopen?last_img read more

Pentagon looking to provide up to 100,000 body bags for civilians in virus outbreak

October 19, 2020

first_imgThe Pentagon is looking to provide up to 100,000 body bags for use by civilian authorities as the coronavirus outbreak worsens in the United States with a high death toll expected in coming weeks.The Federal Emergency Management Agency has requested 100,000 such bags to the US Department of Defense, a Pentagon official told Reuters on Wednesday.The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) is working with the current contractor on additional capacity, the official said. Topics : The initial delivery will come from DLA stocks as the contractor ramps up production, according to the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity. The DLA does not yet have a specific delivery date request from FEMA, but the agency wants the bags as soon as they are ready.Bloomberg had reported earlier that the Pentagon was looking at buying more body bags and that it will draw some initially from a stockpile of 50,000 that it maintains.A FEMA spokesman cited by Bloomberg said that the agency was making “prudent” plans for future needs, which included preparations for “mortuary contingencies” from US states.The Troop Support unit of DLA is responsible for managing the Pentagon’s stockpile of the green nylon, 94-inch by 38-inch body bags, which are normally used in war zones.center_img The development comes as the United States is looking at an increasing number of deaths from the coronavirus outbreak, with Reuters’ tally showing more than 4,500 deaths and over 200,000 infections in the country.President Donald Trump and his top healthcare advisers urged Americans to follow strict social distancing measures ahead of a “tough two weeks” that could see at least 100,000 deaths from the coronavirus.last_img read more

COVID-19: Jakarta’s trash output decreases as residents stay at home

October 19, 2020

first_img“The policy of working, studying and worshipping at home has caused a reduction in waste, especially from commercial sources such as hotels, malls, restaurants and tourist destinations,” Andono said.He advised residents to keep reducing, sorting and recycling waste while in self-quarantine.Furthermore, he encouraged residents to practice the eco-friendly waste management.“We have to know and be aware of what we are consuming. If it produces excess waste, we should choose other options,” he said. Topics : Jakarta’s daily trash output has decreased by over 40 percent ever since local residents began working and studying from home to curb the spread of COVID-19, the city’s environment agency announced Thursday.In a statement on Thursday, Jakarta Environment Agency head Andono Warih said the amount of trash sent to the Bantar Gebang landfill in Bekasi, West Java, had decreased to around 620 tons daily in the two weeks since the stay-at-home instruction was announced on March 16. According to a Bekasi Environment Agency report in January, the Bantar Gebang landfill received approximately 1,500 tons of trash each day.last_img read more
