glacier_kittyJUNEAU, Alaska - A state Senate committee has advanced a bill that would exempt Alaska from daylight saving time.
The bill, from Sen. Anna MacKinnon, moved from the Senate State Affairs Committee on Tuesday.
It would exempt Alaska from the annual time change beginning in 2017. That means Alaska would be five hours behind the East Coast, instead of four hours behind, from about March to November.
MacKinnon told the committee that there are health impacts associated with changing the clocks each spring and fall, and she wants to help Alaskans avoid those. Those include increased rates of heart attacks, suicide and traffic accidents in the spring, she said
Good, I've always thought DST was pointless here. I hope it passes!!
Today's my brother's 23rd birthday..we're all getting old!! O_o Haha
Lots of things, probably..
1. How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you are?
2. If life is so short, why do we do so many things we don’t like and like so many things we don’t do?
3. What is the one thing you’d most like to change about the world?
4. If the average human life span was 40 years, how would you live your life differently?
5. Are you more worried about doing things right, or doing the right things?
6. If you could offer a newborn child only one piece of advice, what would it be?
7. What’s something you know you do differently than most people?
8. What one thing have you not done that you really want to do? What’s holding you back?
9. Are you holding onto something you need to let go of?
10. If you had to move to a state or country besides the one you currently live in, where would you move and why?
11. Why are you, you?
12. Which is worse, when a good friend moves away, or losing touch with a good friend who lives right near you?
13. What are you most grateful for?
14. Would you rather lose all of your old memories, or never be able to make new ones?
15. Has your greatest fear ever come true?
16. Do you remember that time 5 years ago when you were extremely upset? Does it really matter now?
17. What is your happiest childhood memory? What makes it so special?
18. Have you ever been with someone, said nothing, and walked away feeling like you just had the best conversation ever?
19. If you just won a million dollars, would you quit your job?
20. What is the difference between being alive and truly living?
21. What would you do differently if you knew nobody would judge you?
22. Decisions are being made right now. The question is: Are you making them for yourself, or are you letting others make them for you?

I already do lots of things that people judge me on and I don't care. They either like me or they don't :)
