Print article JUNEAU A dispute over anti-COVID policy in the Alaska Senate appeared to reach resolution Monday, but another arose in the state House on the same day that two more people tested positive for COVID-19 in the Alaska State Capitol. Sen. Lora Reinbold, R-Eagle River, wore a CDC-compliant facemask Monday in the Capitol, ending a weeklong dispute that saw her removed from committee hearings and told to leave the floor of the Alaska Senate. Reinbold had previously declined to provide proof of a negative COVID test and wear a mask that follows the Capitol’s rules. “What you’re seeing this morning is the Senate organization is 100% compliant on following the rules of the COVID-19 mitigation policy,” said Senate President Peter Micciche, R-Soldotna, as he left the Senate chambers next to Reinbold.

Researchers Study How Autistic People Communicate Virtually by Angela Mohan on March 16, 2021 at 3:12 PM
Autistic people prefer to communicate using the internet instead of in-person.
Researchers from Drexel University s A.J. Drexel Autism Institute collected and reviewed published research about how autistic youth and adults use the internet to communicate and provide a framework for understanding contributions, gaps and opportunities in online autistic communities.
Lead author Elizabeth McGhee Hassrick, PhD, an assistant professor in the Autism Institute, and her co-authors cast a wide net searching across five databases that list studies investigating how autistic people use the internet to communicate. Filtering for specific criteria, they read 32 articles, collected their most important findings and looked for patterns.
I think we can all admit to saying something we wish we had not said during an argument or fight with someone. When you are in an argument your emotions seemingly take over and some of us tend to do what we refer to 'go below the belt'.
