Why is secrecy required? This seems important for Alaskans to be able to review. There is a reason the law says we should be aware the financial health of important utilities in our state. Public comments are due today (10/28)! rca.alaska.gov/RCAWeb/Docke...

“The filings also state that both GCI Liberty & Malone have asked for a waiver that would allow them to keep their financial documents confidential.

Under state law & regulation, those documents would ordinarily be available for public inspection as part of regulators' approval process.” #alaskasky

A morning glory vine grows on a wrought iron railing. Green heart shaped leaves contrast with deep purple trumpet shaped flowers.

Who knew those gorgeous paintings of mums were based on real flowers? #flowers

Red chrysanthemum poms stand out against a background of green and red foliage. Yellow petals stand out against red in the center of each blossom.

#Pottery people, I need your thoughts. This strange bubble (?) formed during the glaze firing (cone 5 electric kiln) at my community studio. This was sea mix clay with Mayco brown engobe. Three layers of Mayco Sea and Sand glaze with a light flux rim. No hint of bubble after bisque firing (cone 04).

A brown ceramic mug lays on its side on a metal surface. A dime sized wart protrudes from the smooth surface of the mug body.
