Agriculture Commissioner hopeful touts taxes, regulations, two-party system

Posted on by

During his recent campaign stop in Marshall, Libertarian Party nominee for Texas Agriculture Commissioner Rocky Palmquist said hes tired of taxes, regulations and the two-party systems promises, which is why he decided to run for office.

I got into this race for the mere fact that the two-party system, which I like to call bipolar politics, says the same thing over and over again every four years, said Palmquist, a farmer, rancher and independent horticultural consultant from Bastrop County.

And it doesnt matter whether its the Democrat or the Republic, its the same coin, its just two different sides of it, he said.

So, somebody had to step up and say weve been regulated enough or taxed enough. Were tired of the agricultural department agency looking over our shoulders. Were tired of having to pay $125 to grow a flower, Palmquist said.

Were tired of the school lunch programs and school breakfast programs that have been infiltrated by the feds ... mandatory lunches. And not only is it the lunch, theyre about to be serving breakfast and supper, too, all across the state year round, he said..

Palmquist believes that since the agriculture department is the agency that will administer that, the first thing he would do, if elected into office, is start looking at how many programs are unfunded mandates imposed by the federal government.

What I think we need to do is have somebody thats got the guts to tell them OK, you want us to do this wheres the money because were not going to take it out of the taxpayers pockets in the state of Texas anymore, Palmquist said.

The federal governmen, according to Palmquists opinion, has no idea what Texas needs.

They have no way of knowing. So what we have to do, we have to get in there, get the offices leveled out, Palmquist said. We need some top-down job attrition. We need cuts in the school lunch program, breakfast program, supper program not additions. The money is already there; we dont need it.

In addition to the lunch programs, he also wants to take a look at giant corporations that are impacting the agriculture industry such as Monsanto and ADM (Archer Daniels Midland).

Postcard from Norway's Magical Lofoten Islands A Biodiversity Hotspot to Rival the Amazon

Posted on by

The view from the M/S Lofoten on the journey from Bod to Svolvaer in Norway, Sept. 8, 2014. Please click to enlarge. (Photo: Tom Yulsman)

Greetings from Norways spectacular Lofoten Islands,one of the crown jewels of our planets biodiversity: an environment above the Arctic Circle where coral reefs actually thrive, seabirds by the millions roost, and Orcas, humpbacks, and sperm wales not to mention humans feast on teeming stocks of fish.

This biodiversity has been described as an Arctic Amazon rainforest and Great Barrier Reef all in one.

Im here to help lead a field trip thats part of a climate change communication course organized by a colleague atOslo and Akershus University Collegeof Applied Sciences.Ill have more to say about this special place in coming days. In the meantime, I thought Id post this ImaGeo postcard.

I photographed the scene up top as our Hurtigruten ship, the M/S Lofoten, was steaming out into Vestfjorden, a wide bight of water separating the Lofoten archipelago from the Salten district of Norway. (For a map, click here.)

The ship, built in 1964, is worth commenting on. Shes still got the original engine, which according to the crew may be distinguished in a remarkable way: among engines for which records have been kept, the M/S Lofotens may well be the longest operating engine on Earth 300,000 hours in all.

Moreover, as shes plied the waters between Bergen in the south and Kirkenes in the north, shestraveled a distance equivalent to the moon and back eight times,according to Tommy Edvardsen, Chief Officer of the ship. (Thats him at the helm in the photo at right.)

Im writing this from the town of Svolvaer, where Ill be staying for the next few days while Im helping with the course. When I get a chance, Ill share some of what Ive learned about this remarkable place, along with more photographs. So I hope youll check back for more.

Part-time residents of Little Bay Islands want answers on resettlement

Posted on by

For years, the residents of Little Bay Islands have had the issue of resettlement looming over their heads.

Little Bay Islands has had the cloud of resettlement looming for a while. A group known as Friends of Little Bay Islands is now seeking answers from government about what happens to them in the event resettlement eventually happens. TC Media photo

The topic has divided the community on more than one occasion. Advocates for the plan to resettle have made sure the issue has been brought up, and votes have been taken and failed when too many residents opposed leaving their homes.

However, when the provincial government announced the available settlement for relocation was going up significantly in last years budget, talks of leaving Little Bay Islands came to life again.

The talks werent just among those who call the community home, however. People like Christina Pelley also raised the topic.

Pelley and her family own a home on Little Bay Islands, but their permanent residence is in Springdale.

We wanted a summer home, somewhere we could go and spend time with the kids, she said. So we found a place on Little Bay Islands, and decided to buy it.

The Pelleys bought the home in 2012, and have enjoyed summer there.

My husband works during the summer, so usually its just me and the kids who go out and spend some time there, she said. The rural atmosphere where her children could play freely and safely was a drawing card.

Christina and her husband have been concerned by the ongoing talk of resettling through the governments community relocation policy.
