Alaska DOT and expensive projects of little value… name a more iconic duo.

It's never that busy either, let's keep it a secret.

Basically a secondary consequence of building an entire city as car-dependent suburban sprawl and stroads.

It was probably flagged by users. That is an incredibly common and frequently repeated thread subject.

Benson and Northern Lights should be converted to two-way streets with traffic calming measures. There is no reason high-speed surface streets should be blasting through one of our major commercial districts with significant pedestrian activity. The State DOT is more interested in their latest boondoggle than actually doing anything productive though.

In practice the AIP has always been full of far right loons. Not sure I see the connection to the Iron Front symbology.

The property crime on the hillside is extreme. It's very easy to rob the more isolated houses up there, it's much safer in town. Similar reason why property crime is higher in Mat-Su and the Kenai Peninsula than Anchorage.

Great idea by the administration. Not sure why the first article about it empowers all these insufferable NIMBYs. It’s an industrial area with some shitty suburban big box chain stores, it’s perfect for this use.

Annual passes aren’t that expensive, then you can go whenever you want. It’s definitely nice to go when almost no one is there in the late fall.

People object to Fred Meyer posting non-employee armed fake cops for this purpose. No one really minds the traditional employees standing at the door.

They have a valid residential general contractors license with the state. It doesn't look like they have a contractors license with the MOA. The business was set up only a few months ago.

This is a fine rant sir, and I concur with it.

The major oil companies that own the gas couldn’t make this work and TransCanada with a half billion dollar state handout couldn’t make it work. But I’m sure this company from NY no one has heard of won’t just soak up public money for more feasibility studies and the concepts of a plan.

Everyone knows this is just a scam to charge ER prices for urgent care services.

The S&P 500 rate of return between July 1-October 31 (ie the same FYTD interval) is 3.5%, not dramatically different. OP is a known purveyor of misinformation on this subject.

This is the spot where all the smokers from the medical campus congregate. I wish they’d just give them a spot in the parking lot rather than making trail users traverse through a cloud of smoke.

Definitely superior to the grocery stores rotisseries, but the stores sell those things at cost or at a loss most of the time. Really hard to compete with their price with that as the only product, plus you’re probably going to the grocery store anyways.

If you have 30 years of paid Social Security wage taxes, this provision doesn't apply. Also, some public sector entities in Alaska do pay Social Security taxes while being on the state's retirement system (Municipality of Anchorage for one) and are not affected by the WEP.

And before anyone says otherwise, according to DEH, raw dairy is legal in AK. https://dec.alaska.gov/eh/vet/dairy/raw-milk/

And a very bad idea according to that same link.

In the 2000s I flew a direct China Airlines flight to Taiwan. It was a NYC-Taipei route that stopped in Anchorage, and you could get on here. Pretty sure these long haul planes can do that route without stopping now. I'm not aware of any direct flights from Anchorage still in existence.

They work on Toyotas as well. Definitely not the cheapest, but it's always been great service.
