Conservation controversy
When Jack Forest cleared the way to help make the 751-acre Wallace L. Forest Conservation Area in memory of his father a reality, he didn’t envision a battleground a quarter of a century later. The Bureau of Land Management, which has managed the site on east Lake Coeur d'Alene since 2003, has proposed a phased plan to selectively log 616 acres of the site to ease wildfire danger, improve existing non-motorized trails, build mountain bike trails on the steep 94-acre northwest corner of the area and add gravel parking spots. "The area needs to be thinned out and cleaned up — I'm not against that at all — but I've got mixed emotions about the bicycle part of it," Forest said. "When I sold part of it and donated part of it, bicycles never came up because they weren't popular at that time."

Denise worked all her life. Then she got ill – and the state pulled away the safety net
The Conservatives like to sell the public a promise: do “the right thing” – work hard, look after your family, pay your taxes – and in tough times, the welfare state will be there for you. But here’s a snapshot of what could happen to any one of us if bad luck hit. Denise, has been a nurse for the best part of 30 years, but since she became too ill to work, she’s been left to live without sickness benefits for five months and counting.

America vs. Russia: Will Missile Defense Help in a Global Nuclear War?
The intensity of relations between the United States and Russia has reached its zenith. That has led nuclear deterrence and missile defense to once again become a relevant subject of discussion, as they were during the Cold War. I have already discussed the countries’ balance of strategic nuclear forces in a separate series of articles covering land, undersea and air components. Now it's time to pay attention to their missile-defense system capabilities and assess whether they can—at this point or in the future—shift the strategic balance towards any party’s side.
