...future of the Pebble Mine is still up in the air. A ballot initiative designed in part to stop the mine failed at the polls last summer, but the project is only in its exploratory stages. Either way, Alaskans are beginning to realize that unchecked resource exploitation can't last forever. "There has to be an alternative view that we can help the community with an environmental economy," says Terry Hoefferle, executive director of Nunamta Aulukestai, an anti-Pebble group.

...Angel Stadium is good, but not great. It’s comfortable, but it doesn’t really have any unique quirkiness. At the ballpark’s main gate, the paving is laid out in a baseball diamond pattern and two giant Angels helmets flank either side. A welcoming statue of Gene Autry, the founder of the Angels sits outside, inviting fans with his signature smile and outstretched hand...
