We live 4 miles out of town between old and new villages. Ice out was the reason they built the new village to begin with, but indians don't enjoy living like white people and prefer the sense of family they find in their old village and I don't blame them either.

Did you do the boat from dawson? Actually, the river is great; reason we like the place. All borders should be like the one 10 miles upriver from eagle. I don't see all the problems with Canada everyone talks about; more moose on their side of border too.

Re: Strong winds from Russia and eastward currents began pushing pack ice toward Barrow...

Tell the Russkies to stop those winds and currents or we shoot the dog!

Okay, slowly put down the cup and step away...

Or we kill Cliff!

Don't you eat that yellow snow where the Huskys' go!

Was it the 80's they shut the old cracker down? Man o' man, time does fly!

If you leave the Oly at home, you have less women chasing you...but they are sober, and, in much better shape...there coming!

The phrase "threat to life and property" suggests that some Alaskan Congressman is going to slip through a billion-dollar program for the Corps of Engineers to deal with ivus.

Good question, no good hits on the dictionaries.

I've checked Ivus, Ivu, eyface, Ivice, eyice..

I suspect the spelling is a mix of a dialect with a misspelling,...maybe 'ice' as the suffix, a- on the front, away from perhaps

The article makes use of both 'ivu' and 'ivus'.

Maybe somebody remarked, Eh! u seen that big eyeview down by the beach,..man what a huge eyeview!

That is the Homer Spit. A naturally formed strip of land not much wider than the road.

As for the "refinery" at the Slope, I believe it was shut down in the mid-80's.

Both BP and ConocoPhillips each operate small facilities producing diesel. BP's is in Prudhoe Bay and supplies fuel for the eastern side of the North Slope. ConocoPhillips is in Kuparuk and supplies fuel for the western side including a pipeline across the Coleville River to Alpine.

I should have just searched for myself. Didn't see the "ivu." Pass me another beer, eh?

It's George Bush's fault.
