A steady job, if you please (78 percent rank it highest). And the No. 1 thing young men want in a mate? Similar ideas about raising children (62 percent). Men prioritizing the kids and women, the checkbook? No, read on and think about the world they live in.

ABORTION: Writer misses on analogy

I have these questions for Dr. George W. Rodkey; what would you know of the events of Ferguson, Mo.? First that it would concern a young African-American teen who purportedly was unarmed and supposedly surrendered to white police officers before he was shot and killed. Second of the resulting riots in which a number of businesses were damaged or destroyed. Third, the rioters being met by a militarized police force. Police officers killing pet dogs, cats or kittens does not typically cause riots. Such actions fall into an entirely different category, plus the public reaction to police officers killing their or their neighbor’s pets is going to be entirely different from cop’s shooting a fellow human being. With reference to Ferguson, there is a significant question as to whether Michael Brown was justifiably killed or not. Also, whether his surviving family has a right to civil justice in this case, or not.

Ms. Geyer-Sylvia is president and CEO of Blue Cross of Idaho, a former client of mine. Read her piece closely and you'll see that it is essentially an advertisement touting her company and open enrollment this fall. It appears that the ACA has been good for Ms. Geyer-Sylvia's company. As she aptly points out, 2014 enrollment was so good that Idaho ranks No. 3 in the nation per capita for enrollees. We should all be pleased, right?

Excellent letter from Mr. Hollingsworth re: abortion but followed by a rather puzzling response from Beatrus Steele on Sept. 19.

Ms. Steele’s response in effect was that the following point was just as valid: Kill them because one might be a Hitler.

RAINBOW: Pot of gold suggestions

I believe we can express dislike for something without vitriol, so I appreciated reading Glen Rothrock’s recent thoughtful letter regarding the Rainbow sculpture. His conclusion, like mine, is that there is nothing very attractive about our Rainbow, yet he mentions that the artist has another installation in Albuquerque which he describes as being “really cool.” The artist has had successes elsewhere, and was not necessarily a bad choice by our Arts Commission. Mr. Rothrock also compliments the Arts Commission on the installation of the Allium sculpture in the park, which, I agree, is really impressive.

The forthcoming celebration of the 225th anniversary of the Judiciary Act of 1789, virtually unrivaled as a statutory cornerstone of American Constitutionalism, shines a light on a law enacted by the First Congress that created the federal judiciary and provided an indispensable tool for the maintenance of the republic and constitutional uniformity. The old statute, challenged and cursed by its opponents at various points along our historical arc, provided for federal judicial review of state laws and court decisions. Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes was right when he wrote that the Union would be imperiled if the Supreme Court lacked authority to declare state acts unconstitutional.

As presented, the proposed curriculum seems to be inadequate for preparing students for technical or science degrees. English arts literature is the predominant factor in the outline while composition, science and history are mentioned in a bland note in the final paragraph of English arts. Additionally, students and the nation would be better served if required reading included “Edward Gibbon - The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire,” in lieu of “Classic Myths and Stories” from around the world. The United States system of government was patterned after the ancient Roman Empire, and this and future generations should try to avoid Rome’s mistakes.

RAINBOW: Structure not befitting Cd'A

Ever since Rainbow was installed, my wife and I thought that we were the only ones in Coeur d’Alene who thought the structure was ugly and absolutely did not fit North Idaho.

My wife calls the structure (we hesitate to call it art or a sculpture), the “steel slingshots.” Walking up to the slingshots from downtown, with the new park, Tubbs Hill and the lake in the background, it hardly extends a warm welcome, but rather a shudder and an ugh!

TRAPPING: Time to reform methods

After reading the “My Turn” article on Friday, Sept. 5th., Idaho Fish and Games’ policy states that trappers may legally kill your dog when you use trails on public land. This really is a major problem as our dogs have been tortured and killed in these kill traps. As I understand it, there are Kill traps and Injure traps that take off body parts and then there are traps that simply catch the animals. Catch traps would allow us to release our pets, or kids, or endangered species animals, without serious damage. This would be a very simple solution and allow the people to once again enjoy our beautiful trails and back country.

ART: Under the rainbow

The rainbow sculpture is the worst piece of sculpture in Coeur d’Alene. I think since the arts commission picked this piece we need to replace the arts commission with new people. Why they picked this sculpture when there is such rich history in this area that a piece of sculpture representing the area would have fit in better. Now the artist wants to charge the people of Coeur d’Alene more money to correct his sculpture is outrageous. If he represented it one way but built it a different way then he should be responsible for any cost to fix it.

Know the difference: Shia vs. Sunni

ISIL (Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant) is a Sunni jihadist group and an aggressive force in the Middle East. The Levant has been described as the "crossroads of western Asia, the eastern Mediterranean and northeast Africa, and the northwest of the Arabian plate." ISIL declared an Islamic "caliphate" in regions under its control in Iraq and Syria after it swept through much of the Sunni Arab heartland north of Baghdad in June and then stormed minority Christian and Yazidi Kurdish areas. However, the United States has blunted their movement with air strikes supporting Iraqi Security Forces, Kurds, and Shiite Militiamen. Of note, Mosul Dam was wrested from ISIL last August with a joint operation of air strikes and a task force of combined forces. Completed in 1984, the dam is once again controlled by the Iraqi government. It is located on the Tigris River upstream from Mosul, and supplies electricity to Mosul's 1.7 million residents. In case you missed it in high school, this area is called the Fertile Crescent, and is known as the cradle of civilization. You might know it as Mesopotamia.

CORE: Route to underachievement

Thank you for printing “What parents should know about Common Core,” submitted by Fred Woeller. Clearly, good people have worked hard to do good things for our children and our future. Despite those good intentions, Common Core, as described in the September 8 article, has serious flaws.

PRESIDENT: Need another IKE, FDR

I’ve been around since FDR. I had the pleasure of casting my first vote for “IKE.” These two Presidents, of two different parties, did more for America than any President I’ve seen since. They provided jobs — (not handouts) — and in so doing gave men and women a sense of dignity and pride.

She is also a naturally gifted singer with a face-sparkling smile. Her signature song as a Red Hot Mama is "If They Could See Me Now" from Sweet Charity. The lyrics about rising from difficult circumstances could be a metaphor of her life.

Stay healthy and comfortable hiking with alpaca socks

I love family hikes around Tubbs Hill and walking along Mineral Ridge with beautiful views of Lake Coeur d'Alene, while we stretch our legs and give the dogs a chance to take in all the smells around the area. Whenever I go for a hike, I always wear my trusty Alpaca socks. Some days we start out early in the brisk morning air, and hike until the sun rises and heats up the trail along with my feet. Luckily, my alpaca socks always adapt to the weather and keep my feet comfortable during our hikes.

Constitutional change going before the voters

On Nov. 4 Idaho voters will have an extraordinary opportunity. You will be asked to vote on a constitutional amendment proposed by the 2014 Idaho Legislature and approved by both the House and the Senate without a single dissenting vote. House Joint Resolution 2 (HJR 2) will amend the Idaho Constitution to confirm the Legislature's authority to review the rules proposed by state agencies each year. Of all the votes you will cast this November, voting "yes" on this constitutional amendment could well be the most important.

A neck injury, such as a pulled muscle or a stiff neck, is something we've all experienced. These little aches and pains often go away on their own, but sometimes the neck injury is more substantial.

This would suggest that the year over year increases may have peaked in July even if temporarily. After nearly 24 months of increases, there has to be some adjustment, yet prices are still increasing.

Despite our best efforts to locate her by driving all over town calling her name, my wife contacted the Rathdrum Police Department, and they said they would leave a message for the officer in charge of animal control, named Penny. With darkness descending, my wife and I went into prayer mode. This small dog went missing for three days and two nights before we finally got a call from Officer Penny who stated she had gotten a call from a lady down by Stub Meyer Park about a small dog that may be ours. We met Penny who then showed us to the woman’s home. We located our dog in some bushes in front of the lady’s house.

CHOCOLATE: Yes, Jesse's is terrific

In Sholeh Patrick’s recent column geared to chocolate-lovers, I was pleased that she recommended Chef Jesse’s chocolate eclairs at Kynrede Cafe in Hayden. In an area where chain restaurants are abundant and too many “chefs” may stir the pot, consistency of result can be a gamble. As the sole chef, Jesse Nachtwey not only creates fabulous desserts but his dinners are always delicious, as well! Talent, hard work and creativity are always on display at this family-owned gem of a restaurant!

DR. LYON: Tribute to a great man

I went to Dr. Wilbur Lyon’s memorial Friday and saw a number of old friends and all of his family. I had the opportunity to know Bill and Joan, his wife, from 1966 to now. I have met some really good men in my time and if I had to rank them I believe I would place Bill at the top of the list. He set the bar for humility, sympathy, contributing to mankind, being a good family man, and just being a good guy.

JAIL: Tax and build it right

When it came to enlarging the county jail, they did not do it right the first time. Back in the ‘90s the voters approved a half-cent sales tax increase to enlarge the county jail. I voted for that as it seemed to be a good way to finance the project with little pain to the county residents. Building costs were lower and it was paid off quickly.

NESSE: Advocate for education funding

Why would a former teacher of gifted children and orchestra who is also an R.N. run for Idaho State Representative in a state that ranks low in education funding? Because she believes that the most beautiful state should also have the best schools to train and offer hope for prospective jobs and livelihoods of its citizens.

Positive dreams

Last night, while walking through the halls of my school, I noticed a small light coming from a slightly open door. Peeking into the room, I am greeted with the instantaneous laughter of 30 fourth-grade students, pointing at my half-naked body standing before them in only underwear, a neck tie and flip-flops. Looking down at the target of their amusement, I quickly attempt to cover my body with an anti-bully poster ripped from the wall and back out of the room as fast as I can.

What's smarter - paying off debts or investing?

It probably doesn't happen as much as you'd like, but from time to time, you have some extra disposable income. When this happens, how should you use the funds? Assuming you have adequate emergency savings - typically, three to six months' worth of living expenses - should you pay off debts, or fund your IRA or another investment account?

CORE: Opt out of SBAC testing

When the Idaho Department of Education embraced Common Core Standards and relinquished all decisions to the nationalized education program, Superintendent Luna told the public it was a great boost for Idaho students. Then the name was changed to Idaho Core Standards as educators and parents questioned the validity and reliability of the standards. Next the Idaho Department of Education contracted to be a lead state with Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium (SBAC) to develop electronic testing with imbedded data mining on students. Again we were told this was the method to create students capable and ready for career and college. As parents and educators questioned the need for expensive testing, security of data and loss of classroom teaching time, the name of the test was changed to ISAT2.

PHONES: Record police encounters

I might have missed this article (“I’m a cop” by Sunil Dutta) if it was in The Press. Seems to me to be very well written by somebody in the “business” today. The only flaw I see (and I agree with body and car cameras being used by the police) is that the police and prosecutors hardly ever let the public see their videos UNEDITED, but edited to their personal choices, and that may cause the public at large to distrust the police, and our court system(s).

Childhood Obesity Awareness Month: Take action

While childhood obesity rates are starting to level off for children and adolescents ages 2 to 19, obesity still remains high at approximately 17 percent for this age group, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Childhood obesity increases the risk for health problems such as Type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease, which were all once thought of as diseases that affected only adults. It may not be an easy fight, but childhood obesity can be prevented with prevailing collaborative efforts.

Cold laser treatment for neuropathy

Although nerve damage can be tricky to treat, some forms of the condition are easier to treat than others. Peripheral neuropathy caused by diseases such as multiple sclerosis, lupus, AIDS and cancer are the most difficult. However, a significant percentage of cases are due to more easily treatable causes such as vitamin deficiencies and compressed or trapped nerves. All of the above can be helped to a lesser or greater extent by applying a variety of treatment options; among the most useful of these are an improvement in diet, and receiving regular chiropractic care.

What helps indigestion, heartburn and reflux?

In the U.S., it is estimated that 60-70 million people suffer from digestive-related diseases. Of these, an estimated 75 percent continue to suffer their symptoms, even after being "treated" medically for them! Doctors are writing $114 million in acid-reducing medication prescriptions; that doesn't include over-the-counter sales. It's big business! What's worse is that taking acid-reducing medications to treat these issues can actually cause or contribute to many of the diseases we are suffering with today. Yet there are many remedies that actually fix the problem, not just cover them up.
