In the news DOC suspends some corrections programs for re-entry ANCHORAGE — Gov. Mike Dunleavy's administration is changing state Department of Corrections policies that some advocates say have helped people succeed when they're released from prison. Alaska Public Media reports the changes by the Republican governor's administration include removing a position focused specifically on inmate re-entry, discontinuing special access volunteer badges and suspending the 12-hour pass program that allowed some inmates to participate in community activities. Cathleen McLaughlin, director of the Partners Reentry Center in Anchorage, says programs like the ones that were suspended were developed to help people transition back into the community. She says she hopes the services will be properly reviewed before they're shelved. Department Commissioner Nancy Dahlstrom says the department will continue involving community members in programs.
Emmett says he’s being replaced on Alaska marijuana board JUNEAU — One of the industry representatives on the board that regulates Alaska’s legal marijuana industry says he’s being replaced. Brandon Emmett says Gov. Mike Dunleavy’s boards and commissions director told him Dunleavy was going “in another direction” and Emmett’s service was no longer needed. An email seeking comment was sent to a Dunleavy spokesman. The administration previously removed from the board Jeff Ankerfelt, who held the public safety seat. Emmett’s term was to expire March 1. He said was interested in continuing to serve. The law setting up the five-member Marijuana Control Board calls for up to two members who are actively involved in the industry though one of those seats could go to a member of the general public. The board has had two members involved in the industry. — Associated Press

Nikiski awaits LNG location decision By VICTORIA PETERSEN Peninsula Clarion
The timeline for the Alaska LNG project — a planned 806mile pipeline that would carry natural gas from the North Slope to a liquefaction plant and terminal in Nikiski — has not been affected by the federal government shutdown, but progress on the Alaska Stand Alone Pipeline has been halted due to the shutdown, according to a recent community update. “We’re waiting on a signed record of decision from both the Corps of Engineers and the Bureau of Land Management,” said Lisa Parker, Alaska Gasline Development Corporation’s stakeholder engagement manager, at the Jan. 15 Alaska LNG Advisory Committee meeting. “That has been affected by the shutdown. We don’t know when

we will receive those records of local permits that would be redecisions. Once we receive them, quired.” Parker also said the Federal the only outstanding issues with ASAP would be getting state Regulatory Commission is re-
questing more data for the Alaska LNG project. “We thought we received the last data request, however, our Christmas present on Dec. 26 was a note from FERC with 91 additional data requests,” Parker said. She said the majority of data requested is engineering related, and they won’t affect the draft environmental impact statement, which is set to be released by the end of February. Parker said they plan to respond to all of the data requests by June. As of last Tuesday, the project has received 1,655 data requests from FERC. All but 111 data requests have been responded to. Both Valdez and the Matanuska-Susitna Borough have expressed interest in housing the Alaska LNG project, but the likelihood of the Alaska See LNG, page A2
Loss of accreditation could put university’s school of education ‘years behind’ By ALEX MCCARTHY Juneau Empire
The University of Alaska Board of Regents met Friday, with the main goal of discussing how to be more efficient with its spending. The early portion of the meeting was dominated by another storyline — that of the
University of Alaska Anchorage’s School of Education losing its accreditation last week. The Council for Accreditation of Educator Programs (CAEP) revoked the School of Education’s accreditation, as the school failed to meet four of five key standards. Regent Dale Anderson said he was trying to remain calm
as he spoke to UAA Chancellor Cathy Sandeen at the meeting Friday, but his frustration was clear. “The incompetence of either the staff, faculty or administration to have four out of five problems in this accreditation search or analysis does not add up,” Anderson said. “We have to step back
and really make some changes.” The regents agreed to hold a listening session so students and their families could meet with regents about the situation. They’ll set a meeting for that soon. When a school loses its accreditation, the university is See LOSS, page A3
Loaded gun goes off in Soldotna coffee shop, injures woman By BRIAN MAZUREK Peninsula Clarion
A firearm was accidentally discharged inside a Soldotna coffee shop on Sunday and injured a 75-year-old woman, according to a statement from Lt. Duane Kant of the Soldotna Police Department. At 2:43 p.m. on Sunday, Soldotna police responded to a call regarding a firearm that had been discharged inside of a coffee shop. The incident took place at Kaladi Brothers Coffee on Kobuk Street in Soldotna. According to statements from Kant and a witness who was there at the time of the incident, a group of people were sitting at a table and passing a gun around among themselves under the table. The owner of the gun, a 76-year-old Kenai man, had reportedly purchased it recently and was showing it to his friends. While taking turns examining the gun, one person aimed it at the floor and pulled the trigger. Because the gun was loaded, it fired and impacted the metal base of the table. No one was struck directly by the bullet, but one woman was taken to the Central Peninsula HospiSee GUN, page A3
Furloughed workers prepare for 2nd missed paycheck By MOLLIE BARNES Juneau Empire
This Friday will be the second missed paycheck for federal workers furloughed due to the government shutdown, and Juneau residents are stepping up to help those affected locally. Some furloughed workers formed a support group for those without pay. And the Southeast Alaska Food Bank opened Monday for a special service offering 50 pounds of food to any federal worker who showed identification. “Money-wise, I’m almost Jerry Arizpe and his wife, Jordan, hold a 33-pound bag of food broke,” said Eric Adam, a fur- they picked up at the Southeast Alaska Food Bank on Monday. loughed U.S. Forest Service Arizpe is a U.S. Coast Guardsman at Station Juneau and is not administrative support special- currently receiving a paycheck because of the partial federal ist who helped form the support shutdown.

All active duty Coast Guard — which JEDC estimates at about 175 to 200 people — are also working without pay. As a GS-6 level employee, Eric Adam is on the low end of the pay grade for federal employees and doesn’t have a lot of savings. “People are hurting so badly,” Eric Adam said. “Some people said we’re having a paid vacation, but it ain’t no vacation to me.

It’s a public group on Facebook called “Juneau Feds Stand Together - Support Each Other” and anyone can join. The goal is to post resources and information, or simply to offer moral support. Eric Adam posted in the group Monday offering to bring boxes of food to workers who weren’t able to get out to the food bank because of snow. Darren Adams, the manager of the food bank, said the food bank will be open every Monday through the shutdown offering federal workers food from noon-4 p.m. They will probably do it for one week after the shutdown ends, too, See CHECK, page A2
Pinpointing when House majority Dunleavy prepares will be formed ‘pretty difficult’ for 1st State of State
By MOLLIE BARNES Juneau Empire
Monday marks the beginning of the second week of the new legislative session, and the House still remains unorganized without a majority or permanent leadership. “I’m in favor of a Republican-led majority,” Rep. Dave Talerico, R-Healy, said after a press conference Monday morning. He said House members were still having open communication on both sides of the aisle. The House has been largely at a standstill since gaveling in the first day of session Tuesday, although a temporary Speaker of the House was voted in, Rep. Neal FosSee HOUSE, page A3

JUNEAU — Alaska Gov. Mike Dunleavy was preparing for his first State of the State speech even though the House had yet to formally accept his request to deliver the address Tuesday before a joint session. The House lacks an organized majority, which means it is limited in what business it can take up until a permanent speaker is elected. Suddenly something as simple as taking up a governor’s request to deliver the speech — typically done without a hitch — is more complicated. Rep. Dave Talerico, a Republican leader, said there
have been discussions on the proper procedure for accepting Dunleavy’s request to give the speech Tuesday night. Republican Rep. Tammie Wilson said she expects those issues will be sorted out and looks forward to hearing from Dunleavy then. Leaders of the predominantly Democratic coalition that controlled the House the last two years planned to hold a press conference after the speech. Coalition press secretary Mike Mason said he was confident the speech would take place Tuesday but wasn’t sure what procedural steps would be taken to clear the See STATE, page A3

Frigid air, high winds sweep the Northeast By HOLLY RAMER Associated Press
CONCORD, N.H. — Falling temperatures replaced the weekend's falling snow Monday as bitter cold and gusty winds swept across the eastern United States. The National Weather Service had forecast that temperatures would be more than 20 degrees below normal across the Northeast, with wind gusts up to 30 mph and wind chills approaching minus 40 degrees Fahrenheitin northern New York and Vermont. Those wind gusts caused flight disruptions at LaGuardia Airport in New York City

while workers get back on their feet. They serviced 36 families in just the first hour and approximately 100 total families in the four hours they were open on Monday. Darren Adams said they estimate that they gave out around 3,600 pounds of food that will help about 350 people. “Over the years they’ve paid it forward so much in terms of getting food to us,” Darren Adams said. “When the shutdown happened and it wasn’t over in a day or two, the least we could do is try to help folks.” Federal workers in Juneau and across the country organize Feds Feed Families annually, to help distribute food to families over the summer who need help. “It’s ironic,” said Eric Adam. “We did Feds Feed Families but
on Monday and FlightAware reported hundreds of delayed flights. And after a few weather-related delays Sunday, Amtrak restored all scheduled service Monday. Atop the Northeast's highest mountain, the temperature fell to minus 23 degrees Monday morning and dropped to minus 31 later in the afternoon, according to the Facebook page for Mount Washington Observatory, in New Hampshire. Wind chills were hovering around minus 80. In New York, Coast Guard crews moved quickly to rescue a 21-year-old man left stranded on an island in the Navensink River after his small boat broke
down. The Coast Guard said two members waded through 34-degree water to bring the man to safety. The air temperature was 7 degrees with 30 mph wind. The weather contributed to multiple deaths over the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday weekend. In suburban Chicago, the temperature was about 14 degrees Sunday when a 12-yearold girl died after a snow fort collapsed on her. Police in Arlington Heights, Illinois, said Esther Jung had been playing with another girl outside Rothem Church. Their families began looking for them about an hour later and found them
under the snow. The younger girl survived. In Connecticut, a utility company subcontractor died Sunday after being struck by a falling tree while working on a power line in Middletown. Thousands of homes and businesses in Connecticut remained without power Monday afternoon as temperatures dropped below zero in some locations. "This is a reminder of the danger these men and women face on our behalf," Gov. Ned Lamont said in a tweet. "While many are still out there working today, please join me in acknowledging them and sending our thoughts to this person's family."

pact statement coming at the end of February will identify a location for the Alaska LNG project. All of the work that has gone into identifying facilities and infrastructure would need to be replicated in those communities. The Alaska LNG project thus far has already cost tens of millions of dollars, Parker said.
“The draft (environmental impact statement) will identify a location for a liquefaction plant facility, which 99 percent of me says will be Nikiski,” Parker said. “Will there be people that challenge that and say we want it in other places?

now it’s families feed feds.” Two TSA agents were picking up boxes of food on Monday. Both said they were not allowed to speak as federal workers on the record. “[The food] does make a difference,” one said. “It’s hard because I’ve never had to do it before.” She said the donated food helps to offset costs, so money can go toward other things like rent. About 15 Coast Guard members were helping distribute food on their day off. They were mostly active duty, so they’re still working without pay. Several of them were a part of different organizations: the Chief Petty Officers Association, the Chief Worn Officer Association and Junior Officer Association. “This is our real first standup, the biggest effort that we’ve had [since the shutdown],” said Quy Nguyen, president of the Chief Petty Officer Association
Juneau Chapter. “Helping our own right now is our focus.” CPOA Member Matthew Schofield said the CPOA formed a service where Coast Guard members can request and receive essentials like baby wipes and food. He said this was the best way for the public to help donate since the Coast Guard has rules restricting members from taking donations directly from the public. Right now he said the pool of money for this service is about $2,000 with money from the CPOA, the CWOA and the JOA. “There’s a lot of camaraderie,” Nguyen said. “We work well together and we’re really members helping members.” The Coast Guard groups also plan to take part in an event Friday that Eric Adam is organizing. The event is tentatively scheduled for Friday afternoon at the Juneau Arts and Culture Center from 4-6 p.m. to provide information and services to fed-
eral workers who are struggling without paychecks. Bobbie Jo Skibo is another furloughed federal worker. She said they are in the process of planning it and anyone who is interested in helping plan the event can come to a meeting at noon Tuesday at Sacred Grounds coffee shop. They’ve invited legislators and the governor, and are hoping to have live music and food. “It’s been a cathartic thing for us because we feel so helpless,” she said. “If we’re back to work on Friday, the event will still go on, it will just be a celebration that we got through this.” Eric Adam is just glad to finally be coming together as a community to help. “I’m in bad shape, but I don’t care; I’m here to help people,” said Eric Adam. “You’ve got to give it away to get it. It all comes back to you.”

Witnesses said that the gun owner believed that the gun was not loaded, and reportedly told police that it went off while it was in his holster. No criminal charges have been filed, and the investigation is still ongoing, but the incident
did prompt discussion about firearm safety and responsible gun ownership. “Obviously, we would like to see folks handling their firearms in a place other than a business that’s open for business.” Kant told Anchorage Daily News, which also reported on the incident. Kant added that part of responsible gun ownership is handling all firearms as if they are always loaded. Management at Kaladi Brothers indicated they were unavailable for comment on the situation at this time.
program who are graduating this spring. Sandeen also said they’re working with other universities to make sure students who transfer are able to have their credits transfer over. “This is a wake-up call,” Sandeen said, “and it’s only going to make us better.” Meanwhile, the University of Alaska Southeast is poised to undergo its own accreditation process. As part of its regular cycle of retaining its accreditation, UAS is hosting the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities (NWCCU) in April. UAS has been accredited since 1983, and the NWCCU’s accreditation includes all UAS campuses (in Juneau, Ketchikan and Sitka). The public can comment on UAS’ qualifications before March 22 by mailing NWCCU at 8060 165th Avenue NE, Suite 100, Redmond, WA 98052. University of Alaska System President Jim Johnsen said university leaders are doing what they can to make sure they spend their money efficiently. He ran through a half-hour presentation about various ways to save costs.
Most involved technological solutions to streamline operations. Other ways included reducing facility operating costs and sharing resources. “There are things on this list that are achievable but have been plaguing us for many years,” regent Karen Perdue said during the meeting. “Hopefully with the increased collaboration across the system we can tackle these issues at last. This will only make our institution stronger.” One other avenue toward saving money — one that affects each campus — is cutting personnel. Johnsen showed that since 2014, the university has cut 15 percent of its employees. UAS has been hit even worse than that, UAS spokesperson Keni Campbell said in an email. Campbell said UAS has lost 22 percent of its employees since 2014. That’s 143 employees, according to Johnsen’s presentation. The university’s budget has shrunk in recent years, as the Alaska Legislature cuts costs. Lawmakers approved a $10 million funding increase in 2017, the first such rise since 2014. Regents and other
university officials have said that increase was helpful but insufficient to keep the University of Alaska competitive with other institutions across the country. During his report at Friday’s meeting, Johnsen said he and other university officials have met twice with Gov. Mike Dunleavy’s administration, three times with Office of Management and Budget Director Donna Arduin. Johnsen said he was appreciative that Dunleavy had taken the time to listen to university administrators. The Dunleavy administration is expected to make “significant” changes to Gov. Bill Walker’s final budget, Johnsen said. Dunleavy’s initial budget proposal included a $1.6 billion deficit, and Johnsen said people in his office will be keeping a close eye on what goes on at the Capitol. Johnsen said they’re also trying to meet with lawmakers, but quipped that it’s difficult to tell which legislators are the most important ones to talk with because the House of Representatives still hadn’t figured out its leadership as of Friday.
chorage, noted that not having a budget from the governor was making it more difficult for members to have discussions about forming the majority. “In a normal organizational year, it’s easier to draw team lines based on budget priorities,” Kopp said. The House expects to see Gov. Mike Dunleavy’s new budget proposal on Feb. 13, said Rep. Tammie Wilson, RNorth Pole. She said Monday
they expect it will be dramatically different in comparison to the way budgets have been presented in the past. “The budget is the No. 1 thing we are sent here to do,” Kopp said. “The caution flag is up among members. It’s hard to comment on something we haven’t seen.” Talerico announced the House will hold a series of informational meetings this week at the Capitol that he hopes will help to move for-
ward with business and clear a pathway for a majority organizaton to be formed quickly. The last two years, the House has been led by a largely Democratic House Majority Coalition. But a Republican and independent who had caucused with the House Majority Coalition lost re-election bids in November. Currently there’s 20 Republicans caucusing, which is not enough to form a majority in the 40-member House.

no longer allowed to recommend students to the state for licensure. Teachers must have a license from the state to teach in public schools. Alaska was having a hard enough time keeping teachers even before this. Nearly two-thirds of all teacher and administrative school positions are hired from out of state each year, according to data from the university. The university has made strides in recent years to try to turn this trend around, and aims to have 90 percent of Alaska’s new teacher hires be University of Alaska graduates. As Anderson pointed out during the meeting, the loss of accreditation “puts us years behind” in that goal specifically. University officials and Department of Education and Early Development (DEED) officials are set to meet soon to talk about coming up with a long-term solution to the problem. DEED announced Friday that it would accept a recommendation for licensure for students in the UAA

way for that. The Senate has already accepted Dunleavy’s request, and Senate President Cathy Giessel said she expected the House would be there. “The governor is planning as if he will be giving his State of the State speech tomorrow,” Dunleavy spokesman Matt Shuckerow said Monday. Monday’s House floor session was canceled. Dunleavy, a Republican former state senator, campaigned on reducing state spending, repealing a sprawling criminal justice overhaul and paying residents a full dividend from the state’s oil wealth fund after three years of reduced payouts. Dunleavy has said he would work to ensure that spending matches revenues, which he said have been calculated at $3.2 billion. Legislators are eager for details. “We have heard that there’s going to be some transformational new approaches on delivery of state services. We’re all anxious to see what that looks like,” said Republican Rep. Chuck Kopp, adding that a fiscally sustainable, responsible budget is important.

What Others Say
Death sentence is political retaliation How serious is China about putting
Canada in its place over the Huawei affair? In the words of legal scholar Donald Clarke, it’sdeadly serious — quite literally. That’s the only conclusion that can be drawn in the wake of the death sentence pronounced with extraordinary haste on a Canadian citizen convicted of drug smuggling in China. Everything we know about the case points to this most recent development being yet another escalation by China in its campaign of retaliation for Canada’s arrest of a senior executive of telecom giant Huawei in Vancouver as a result of an extradition request by U.S. authorities. Almost immediately after the executive, Meng Wanzhou, was arrested the Chinese arbitrarily detained two Canadians on suspicion of endangering China’s national security, without presenting any evidence of such crimes. Now a Chinese court has passed a death sentence on another Canadian, Robert Schellenberg, whose case has been slowly wending its way through the judicial system there for more than four years. There had been no publicity around that case, but now that Canada and China are locked in their bitter dispute over the arrest of Meng, it has been vaulted into the public eye. Schellenberg was sentenced to 15 years in prison in November, but at the end of December a Chinese court sent his case back for retrial. The customary legal delays magically vanished; within mere hours this week Schellenberg had his new trial and the harshest possible sentence was pronounced: death. Unusually, foreign journalists were invited to witness the process, presumably to get the word out and make a point. And in the context of the dispute between Beijing and Ottawa, that message is unmistakable: China will do whatever it takes to push back against the arrest of one of its citizens and the threat to Huawei, its premier international tech champion, legal niceties be damned. That includes holding the threat of execution over a Canadian citizen, presumably as another bargaining chip for an eventual negotiated settlement of the dispute. In short, concludes Clarke, an expert on Chinese law, in the online national security journal Lawfare, it all reinforces the message that “China views the holding of human hostages as an acceptable way to conduct diplomacy.” This at least has the merits of dropping all pretense about legality and due process, as was the completely over-the-top commentary published last week by China’s ambassador to Canada, Lu Shaye. In the Hill Times, he cut to the chase and blamed “Western egotism and white supremacy” for criticism about the detention of the two Canadians seized in clear retaliation for the arrest of Meng. Unlike Meng, who had a public hearing before being released on bail to the comfort of her Vancouver home, they languish in Chinese jails without clear charges or regular access to legal and consular help. Yet, according to the Chinese ambassador’slogic, only “white supremacy” can explain the push-back against their detention. Right from the start of this sorry affair, it’s been clear that Canada is caught between two giants — the United States, whose justice department’s case against Meng is frankly questionable, and China, which sees all this as a test of political and economic strength, not a legal issue of right and wrong. Canada has no choice but to honour its extradition treaty with Washington and let the case take its course in Canadian courts.Meng will get all the advantages of due process, something the Canadians detained in China will not enjoy. Eventually, though, the cases will likely be resolved as part of a new understanding on trade issues between Washington and Beijing. In the meantime, the true nature of China’s thoroughly politicized legal system is being laid bare for all to see. — The Toronto Star, Jan. 14
News and Politics
Sen. Elizabeth Warren: Shutdown is Trump’s fault By STEVE LeBLANC Associated Press
BOSTON (AP) — Sen. Elizabeth Warren ramped up her criticism of President Donald Trump on Monday faulting him for the partial federal government during remarks at the 49th annual Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Breakfast in Boston. “As we speak, our government is shut down for one reason: So that the president of the United States can fund a monument to hate and division along our southern border,” the Massachusetts Democrat said during a 10-minute speech. “This is the old divide-and-conquer strategy. The goal is to turn hardworking people against other hardworking people. The intent is to promote fear and hatred.” During the event, Warren also responded to Trump’s offer to Democrats on Saturday to open the government in exchange for temporary protections for young immigrants brought to the country illegally as children and those fleeing disaster zones. Warren said Trump must open the government immediately. “If the president wants to negotiate over immigration reform, I’m all for it,” Warren said after the speech. “But open the government and open it now.” Warren, who is exploring a possible run
for president next year, used the speech in part to call for a constitutional amendment guaranteeing the right to vote saying “people of color have been systematically denied” that right. “It would guarantee the right to vote to every American citizen and make sure that that vote is counted. Right now there is no constitutional right,” Warren said after her speech. “It would help protect and give us grounds for pushing back when localities undercut the right of people to vote.” Warren also said that “the days when our criminal justice system grinds up black people and destroys communities of color must come to an end.” Warren was one of a number of public officials who spoke at the breakfast. During his comments, Republican Gov. Charlie Baker reflected on the importance of faith in the civil rights movement. He said that faith played a particularly important role for King, calling King’s entire life “a leap of faith.” “Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase,” Baker said, adding that King wanted to use faith to help individuals “see ourselves in each other.” Also speaking at the breakfast was newly elected Democratic U.S. Rep. Ayanna Pressley, first black woman elected to rep-
resent Massachusetts in Congress. Pressley, who has harshly criticized Trump, suggested she didn’t want to focus on his administration during the event. “I came here today to not lift up and to talk anymore about the oppressor and their oppressive structures because they get enough oxygen every day,” she said. “Instead I came here to salute, to celebrate, to lift up, to recognize, and to affirm the resilience, the intellect, the courage, the beauty, the tolerance of the oppressed.” Pressley said she wanted in particular to celebrate black women like Coretta Scott King and her mother. She described them and other black women as the preservers of democracy and the “truth tellers and the justice-seekers.” “Black women, we are claiming our time, we are shaking the table in the corridors of power,” she said. Democratic Boston Mayor Martin Walsh talked in part about the role Boston played in the life of Martin Luther King Jr. — who received his doctorate from Boston University, and met his future wife, Coretta Scott King, a graduate from the New England Conservatory of Music, during his time in Boston. The city is planning a memorial to honor the civil rights icons on the historic Boston Common.
Trump lawyer walks back comments about Moscow project WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump’s lawyer Rudy Giuliani on Monday walked back comments he made about discussions Trump had with his former personal attorney about a real estate project in Moscow during the presidential election campaign. Trump’s former attorney, Michael Cohen, has pleaded guilty to lying to Congress in 2017 by saying he had abandoned the Trump Tower project in January 2016 even though prosecutors say he actually pursued it into June. Giuliani suggested in a TV interview Sunday that Trump remembers conversations with Cohen about the project “up to as far as October, November,” or right up until the election. That extends the timeline for the Russian business deal well beyond what the president has publicly acknowledged. Giuliani said Monday in a three-sen-
tence statement that his comments “did not represent the actual timing or circumstances of any discussions.” He said his comments were “hypothetical” and “not based on conversations” he had with the president. He concluded by saying the Moscow project “was in the earliest stage and did not advance beyond a free non-binding letter of intent.” The changing timeline is relevant in light of the special counsel’s investigation into Russian interference in the election and ties to the Trump campaign. For Trump, Giuliani plays the role more of spokesman than attorney, unleashing public attacks on investigators while throwing out wild accusations designed to muddle the narrative of the probe. But at times, he has gone too far or has flat-out misspoken, leading to a series of clarifications while triggering more legal questions
for his client. This was the second time within the past week that Giuliani has walked back comments from the previous day. On Thursday, he issued a statement aimed at clarifying a TV interview from the night before in which he appeared to leave open the possibility of collusion between Russia and members of Trump’s presidential campaign. In the statement, he said “there was no collusion by President Trump in any way, shape or form” and that he had “no knowledge of any collusion by any of the thousands of people who worked on the campaign.” That was an apparent reversal from Wednesday’s television appearance in which he said, “I never said there was no collusion between the campaign or between people in the campaign.” He had previously denied any collusion.
list of his accomplishments in that short period of time is immense. Certainly, no person is perfect, however, in my experience of “paying attention,” Mayor Pierce consistently prioritizes his decisions on the basis of what is best for all the people of the borough as opposed to his opposition’s desire to grow and inflate borough government. Here’s just one example: the past KPB administration and assembly asked citizens to pay $5 million for a new heating system for the KPB building on Binkley Street (The massive Lowe’s building only cost $4.2M and it came with a heating system)! Mr. Pierce opposed the proposition while his op-
ponents during the campaign supported it. Smart KPB voters resoundingly said “No.” Once elected, Mayor Pierce fixed the problem for only $160,000 — a 97 percent difference. And yet, the “grow government” opposition consistently challenges Mayor Pierce’s pro-citizens decisions. I applaud Mayor Pierce for his courage and proven leadership. I hope you will join me in thanking him by calling his office at 714-2150, or email him atcp@kpb.us, or in person at the KPB Assembly meetings.
Letters to the Editor Kudos Mayor Pierce The previous borough mayor once warned citizens to “pay attention” to what the KPB assembly and administration does. At the time, he was most likely referring to the Anadromous Waters Ordinance that did ultimately rob property rights from owners to access and use their own private property. They justified this through unverified, embellished and manipulated (aka “fake”) science. By looking at the past borough leadership, we can look at the present with a discerning assessment and appreciation. Current Mayor Charlie Pierce has been in office just over a year, but the

Nation Shutdown goes on as offer doesn’t budge Democrats

WASHINGTON -- Thirtyone days into the partial government shutdown, Democrats and Republicans appeared no closer to ending the impasse than when it began, with President Donald Trump lashing out at his opponents after they dismissed a plan he’d billed as a compromise. Trump on Sunday branded House Speaker Nancy Pelosi a “radical” and said she was acting “irrationally.” The president also tried to fend off criticism from the right, as conservatives accused him of embracing “amnesty” for immigrants in the country illegally.
Trump offered on Saturday to temporarily extend protections for young immigrants brought to the country illegally as children and those fleeing disaster zones in exchange for $5.7 billion for his border wall. But Democrats said the threeyear proposal didn’t go nearly far enough. “No, Amnesty is not a part of my offer,” Trump tweeted Sunday, noting that he’d offered temporary, three-year extensions -- not permanent relief. But he added: “Amnesty will be used only on a much bigger deal, whether on immigration or something else.” The criticism from both sides underscored Trump’s boxed
in-position as he tries to win at least some Democratic buy-in without alienating his base. With hundreds of thousands of federal workers set to face another federal pay period without paychecks, the issue passed to the Senate, where Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has agreed to bring Trump’s proposal to the floor this week. Democrats say there’s little chance the measure will reach the 60-vote threshold usually required to advance legislation in the Senate. Republicans have a 53-47 majority, which means they need at least some Democrats to vote in favor. McConnell has long tried to avoid votes on legislation that
is unlikely to become law. And the Kentucky Republican has said for weeks that he has no interest in “show votes” aimed only at forcing members to take sides after Trump rejected the Senate’s earlier bipartisan bill to avert the shutdown. What’s unclear is how McConnell will bring Trump’s plan forward -- or when voting will begin. The Republican leader is a well-known architect of complicated legislative maneuvers. One question is whether he would allow a broader immigration debate with amendments to Trump’s plan on the Senate floor. McConnell spokesman David Popp said Sunday, “When we have (a plan) we will be sure to let everyone know.” One key Republican, Sen. James Lankford of Oklahoma, said that he and other lawmakers had been encouraging the White House to put an offer on the table -- any offer -- to get both sides talking. “Get something out there the president can say, ‘I can support this,’ and it has elements from both sides, put it on the table, then open it up for debate,” Lankford said on ABC’s “This Week.” “The vote this week in the Senate is not to pass the bill, it is to open up and say ‘Can we debate this? Can we amend it? Can we make changes?’” Lankford said. “Let’s find a way to be able to get the government open because there are elements in this that are clearly elements that have been supported by Democrats strongly in the past.”
Kamala Harris opens 2020 presidential bid By JUANA SUMMERS Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Kamala Harris, a first-term senator and former California attorney general known for her rigorous questioning of President Donald Trump’s nominees, entered the Democratic presidential race on Monday. Vowing to “bring our voices together,” Harris would be the first woman to hold the presidency and the second African-American if she succeeds. Harris, who grew up in Oakland, California, and is a daughter of parents from Jamaica and India, is one of the earliest high-profile Democrats to join what is expected to be a crowded field. She made her long anticipated announcement on ABC’s “Good Morning America.” “I am running for president of the United States,” she said. “And I’m very excited about it.” The 54-year old portrayed herself as a fighter for justice, decency and equality in a video distributed by her campaign as she announced her bid. “They’re the values we as Americans cherish, and they’re
all on the line now,” Harris says in the video . “The future of our country depends on you and millions of others lifting our voices to fight for our American values.” On ABC, she cited her years as a prosecutor in asserting: “My entire career has been focused on keeping people safe. It is probably one of the things that motivates me more than anything else.” Harris launched her presidential bid as the nation observes what would have been the 90th birthday of the slain civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. The timing was a clear signal that the California senator— who has joked that she had a “stroller’s-eye view” of the civil rights movement because her parents wheeled her and her sister Maya to protests — sees herself as another leader in that fight. She abandoned the formality of launching an exploratory committee, instead going all in on a presidential bid. She plans a formal campaign launch in Oakland on Jan. 27. The campaign will be based in Baltimore, with a second office in Oakland.

Harris joins what is expected to be a wide-open race for the Democratic presidential nomination. There’s no apparent front-runner at this early stage and Harris will face off against several Senate colleagues. Sens. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and Kirsten Gillibrand of New York have both launched exploratory committees. Sens. Cory Booker of New Jersey, Sherrod Brown of Ohio and Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota are also looking at the race. If Booker enters the race, he and Harris could face a fierce competition for support from

Teen in confrontation with Native American: I didn’t provoke

DETROIT — The student who stared and smiled at an elderly Native American protester drumming in his face outside the Lincoln Memorial as his schoolmates chanted and laughed says he did nothing to provoke the man in the videotaped confrontation and was only trying to calm the situation. The student identified himself in an email statement Sunday evening as junior Nick Sandmann of Covington Catholic High School in a northern Kentucky suburb of Cincinnati. An official working with the
family confirmed Sandmann’s identity, speaking on condition of anonymity because the source didn’t want to distract from the statement. Videos posted of the confrontation drew wide criticism on social media. “I am being called every name in the book, including a racist, and I will not stand for this mob-like character assassination of my family’s name,” wrote Sandmann, who added that he and his parents have received death threats since video of Friday’s confrontation emerged. Both Sandmann and Nathan Phillips say they were trying to defuse tensions that were rising among three groups on a day Washington hosted both the
March for Life and the Indigenous Peoples March. But video of Sandmann standing very close to Phillips, staring and at times smiling at him as Phillips sang and played a drum, gave many who watched it a different impression. Other students appeared to be laughing at the drummer; and at least one could be seen on video doing a tomahawk chop. The dueling accounts emerged Sunday as the nation picked apart footage from dozens of cellphones that recorded the incident on Friday in Washington amid an increasingly divided political climate fueled by a partial government shutdown over immigration policy. Phillips had approached Sandmann, but well before that, both his group and Sandmann’s, which had taken part in the antiabortion rally, were confronted by a third group that appeared to be affiliated with the Black Hebrew Israelite movement. Videos show members of the religious group yelling disparaging and profane insults at the students, who taunt them in return. Video also shows the Native Americans being insulted by the small religious group. Sandmann wrote that the students were called “racists,” ‘’bigots,” ‘’white crackers”
and “incest kids” by the third group. He said a teacher chaperone gave the students permission to begin their school chants “to counter the hateful things that were being shouted at our group.” One of those chants, however, is what led Phillips and Marcus Frejo, a member of the Pawnee and Seminole tribes, to approach the youths. It was a haka — a war dance of New Zealand’s indigenous Maori culture, made famous by the country’s national rugby team. Frejo, who is also known as Chief Quese Imc, told the AP in a phone interview that he felt the students were mocking the dance. Phillips, an activist described by the Indian Country Today website as an Omaha elder and Vietnam War veteran, said in an interview with The Associated Press that he was trying to keep peace between the high school students and the religious group. He said he heard people chanting “Build that wall” or yelling, “Go back to the reservation.” At one point, he said, he sought to ascend to the Lincoln statue and “pray for our country.” Some students backed off, but one student wouldn’t let him move, he added.

Around the Nation TSA screener sick-outs hit 10 percent over holiday weekend The percentage of TSA airport screeners missing work has hit 10 percent as the partial government shutdown stretches into its fifth week. The Transportation Security Administration said Monday that Sunday’s absence rate compared to 3.1 percent on the comparable Sunday a year ago. The workers who screen passengers and their bags face missing another paycheck if the shutdown doesn’t end early this week. According to TSA, many of them say the financial hardship is preventing them from reporting to work. TSA says the national average waiting time in airport checkpoint lines is within the normal limit of 30 minutes, but there are longer lines at some airports. The agency has dispatched extra screeners to airports in Atlanta, LaGuardia Airport in New York, and Newark, New Jersey. A TSA spokesman said other airports might also be getting additional help. Sunday’s 10 percent absence rate indicates that more than 3,000 airport screeners missed work. TSA has 51,000 screeners, and a spokesman said that about 33,000 work on any given day. That topped the previous high of 8 percent on Saturday. With fewer screeners, TSA closed one of its security checkpoints at Baltimore/Washington airport over the weekend, reopened it, but closed it again Monday afternoon, according to an airport spokeswoman. A checkpoint at Houston’s Bush Intercontinental Airport remained closed. An airport spokesman said lines were relatively short at the other six checkpoints. TSA appeared to be managing the high sick-out rate as well as could be expected. The agency said that on Sunday it screened 1.78 million passengers, and only 6.9 percent — roughly 120,000 people — had to wait 15 minutes or longer to get through security. No figures were yet available for Monday, but websites or spokespeople for several major airports including Dallas-Fort Worth and Chicago’s O’Hare reported normal security lines and few problems. Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, which had some of the longest lines in the country last week, reported waits of 15 to 30 minutes at domestictravel checkpoints Monday. Los Angeles International Airport showed most lines under 20 minutes. TSA got a break from bad weather: Storms in the Midwest and Northeast led airlines to cancel more than 4,400 flights over the three-day weekend, which reduced the number of passengers to screen. A few airports — San Francisco’s being the largest — conduct screening with government-approved private contractors, not TSA. A long government shutdown and more TSA sick-outs could lead other airports to consider going private, although that hasn’t happened yet. The holiday honoring Martin Luther King Jr. is not as busy for travel as many other three-day weekends. However, inconvenience could become a crisis for the travel industry the longer the shutdown lasts — and there are few signs of movement by President Donald Trump or congressional Democrats to break the stalemate over border-wall spending that is causing the shutdown. “Presidents’ Day weekend is much bigger, and then spring break and Easter— those are really important,” said Savanthi Syth, an airline analyst for Raymond James. Presidents’ Day is Feb. 18, and Syth said if the shutdown drags into next month it could cause some passengers to cancel travel plans.
Teachers union: Los Angeles strike to go into 6th school day LOS ANGELES — Teachers in the nation’s second-largest school district are expected to strike for a sixth school day Tuesday as talks between Los Angeles Unified and United Teachers Los Angeles continue. The union said Monday that teachers are due back at picket lines Tuesday morning even if an agreement is reached Monday, saying it takes time to mobilize a ratification vote of a deal. Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti remained upbeat as he mediated the fifth day of marathon negotiations at City Hall on Monday. “The parties are still at the table, and I am optimistic that we have the momentum to take those final steps toward bringing our teachers and young people back into their classrooms,” he said in a statement. Tens of thousands of educators walked off the job and onto picket lines Jan. 14 for the first time in 30 years. The union and LA Unified School District are at odds over issues including salary, class size and support staff. Teachers have complained about overcrowded classrooms where students sit on window sills or on the floor.
Notre Dame to cover up murals of Columbus in the New World SOUTH BEND, Ind. — The University of Notre Dame will cover murals in a campus building that depict Christopher Columbus in America, the school’s president said, following criticism that the images depict Native Americans in stereotypical submissive poses before white European explorers. The 12 murals created in the 1880s by Luis Gregori were intended to encourage immigrants who had come to the U.S. during a period of anti-Catholic sentiment. But they conceal another side of Columbus: the exploitation and repression of Native Americans , said the Rev. John Jenkins, president of Notre Dame. It is a “darker side of this story, a side we must acknowledge,” Jenkins said in a letter Sunday. The murals in the Catholic university’s Main Building are painted directly on walls. Jenkins said they will be covered, although they still could be occasionally displayed. A permanent display of photos of the paintings will be created elsewhere with an explanation of their context. “We wish to preserve artistic works originally intended to celebrate immigrant Catholics who were marginalized at the time in society, but do so in a way that avoids unintentionally marginalizing others,” Jenkins said. In 2017, more than 300 students, employees and Notre Dame alumni signed a letter in the campus newspaper that called for the removal of the murals. The president of the Native American Student Association praised Jenkins’ decision. “This is a good step towards acknowledging the full humanity of those native people who have come before us,” said Marcus Winchester-Jones of Dowagiac, Michigan. But Notre Dame law student Grant Strobl said the decision was disappointing. — The Associated Press

World Islamic State group targets US in Syria By BASSEM MROUE Associated Press
BEIRUT — An Islamic State suicide bomber targeted a joint convoy of U.S. and allied Kurdish forces in northern Syria on Monday, marking the second attack against U.S. troops in less than a week and further highlighting the dangers surrounding U.S. plans to withdraw forces after a declaration that the extremist group had been defeated. The attack happened on a checkpoint on the edge of the town of Shaddadeh in the Hassakeh province, on a road used by local Kurdish fighters and the U.S.-led coalition fighting IS militants near the Iraqi border. U.S. military Col. Sean Ryan said there were no casualties among the U.S.-led coalition members. “We can confirm a combined U.S. and Syrian partner force convoy was involved” in the suicide bomb attack, he said. “We will continue to review the situation and provide updates as appropriate,” he added. Monday’s bombing came days after a suicide attack killed 19 people, including two U.S. service members and two American civilians, in the northern Syrian town of Manbij. That bombing, outside a popular restaurant frequented by American
troops, was the deadliest assault on U.S. troops in Syria since American forces moved into the country in 2015. The extremist group claimed both attacks in statements carried by its Aamaq news agency. IS has been driven from virtually all the territory it once held in Syria and Iraq but continues to carry out attacks in both countries. The Kurdish Hawar news agency, based in northern Syria, said Monday’s blast targeted a Syrian Kurdish checkpoint as a coalition convoy was passing near Shaddadeh. It said two Kurdish fighters were lightly wounded in the blast. A video it posted showed smoke rising from a vehicle on a desert road. Another video released by the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights showed smoke rising from what appeared to be an armored vehicle belonging to the Syrian Kurdish militia in flames. Coalition armored vehicles and ambulances could be seen on the road. The Observatory said the blast killed five people and wounded others. In a Dec. 19 tweet announcing the withdrawal from Syria, President Donald Trump declared, “We have defeated ISIS in Syria, my only reason for being there during the Trump
Taliban attack Afghan military base, killing 12

Presidency.” He said the troops would begin coming home “now.” That plan triggered immediate pushback from military leaders and led to the resignation of Defense Secretary Jim Mattis. Over the past month, Trump and others have appeared to adjust the timeline, and U.S. officials have suggested it will likely take several months to safely withdraw the approximately 2,000 U.S. troops from Syria. Sen. Lindsey Graham, a leading voice on foreign policy and close ally of the president, said during a visit Saturday to Turkey that an American withdrawal from Syria that had not been thought through would lead to “chaos” and “an Iraq on
steroids.” Graham urged Trump not to get out without a plan and said IS has not yet been destroyed in Syria. The office of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said he and Trump spoke by phone early Monday about Manbij, and that Erdogan told Trump that Turkey is “ready to take over the security” of the town “without losing time.” The fate of the Syrian town, controlled by U.S.-backed Syrian Kurdish fighters whom Turkey considers terrorists, has been a source of tension between Ankara and Washington. Turkey insists on the withdrawal of the Syrian Kurdish militia, which drove IS from Manbij in 2016.
China’s 2018 economic growth sinks to 3-decade low

BEIJING — China’s 2018 economic growth fell to a three-decade low, adding to pressure on Beijing to settle a tariff war with Washington. The world’s second-largest economy expanded by 6.6 percent over a year earlier, down from 2017’s 6.9 percent, official data showed Monday. Growth in the three months ending in December dipped to 6.4 percent — the lowest quarterly level since the 2008 global crisis — from the previous quarter’s 6.5 percent. Communist leaders are trying to steer China to slower, more self-sustaining growth
based on consumer spending instead of trade and investment. But the deceleration has been sharper than expected, prompting Beijing to step up government spending and order banks to lend more to shore up growth and avoid politically dangerous job losses. “Growth will remain under pressure,” said Louis Kuijs of Oxford Economics in a report. “Key risks are the ongoing trade tension with the U.S. and that credit growth does not recover.” Exports held up through most of 2018 despite President Donald Trump’s tariff hikes on Chinese imports in a fight over Beijing’s technology ambitions. But they contracted in
December as the penalties began to depress U.S. demand. Economic growth in 2018 was the lowest since 1990’s 3.9 percent in the aftermath of the violent crackdown on pro-democracy protests centered on Beijing’s Tiananmen Square. Growth in investment, retail spending and factory activity all declined, the National Bureau of Statistics reported. The impact of U.S. tariffs was limited, but China faces pressure from growing global support for import controls, volatile financial markets and declining investment spending, said the bureau commissioner, Ning Jizhe. “Downward pressure on the economy is increasing,” said Ning at a news conference. Still, he added later, “the Chinese economy’s resilience and ability to resist shocks and the long-term trend of stability will not change.” The slowdown is adding to pressure on President Xi Jinping’s government to settle its costly dispute with Washington. The two sides have imposed tariff hikes of up to 25 percent on tens of billions of dollars of each other’s goods in the fight over U.S. complaints Beijing steals or pressures companies to hand over technology. Washington is
pressing China to roll back plans for state-led industry development that its trading partners say violate its market-opening obligations. That dispute has rattled Chinese consumers that Beijing is counting on to drive growth. Some are cutting spending, which might worsen the downturn. In a possible sign of progress, Beijing announced Friday its top trade envoy, Vice Premier Liu He, will visit Washington for talks Jan. 3031. Business groups and economists said a decision by Liu and his American counterpart, Robert Lighthizer, to get directly involved would suggest earlier talks by lower-level officials made progress. Trump said Saturday that trade relations with China were “going very well” and “a deal could very well happen.” Forecasters expect Chinese growth to bottom out this year as Beijing’s stimulus efforts gain traction. However, they have pushed back the time frame for that due to weakening exports. Government-led spending on public works construction “is shaping up to be the engine for 2019,” Iris Pang of ING said in a report. “However, non-infrastructure business activities will be dismal this year. And debt will grow.”
Venezuela quells soldiers’ revolt, top court blasts congress By FABIOLA SANCHEZ Associated Press
CARACAS, Venezuela — Venezuela plunged deeper into turmoil on Monday as security forces put down a pre-dawn uprising by national guardsmen that triggered violent street protests and the Supreme Court moved to undercut the opposition-controlled congress’ defiant new leadership. Socialist party chief Diosdado Cabello said 27 guardsmen were arrested and more could be detained as the investigation unfolds. The mutiny struck at a time when opposition leaders have regained momentum in their efforts to oust President Nicolas Maduro. They have calling for a nationwide demonstration Wednesday, urging Venezuelans — especially members of the armed forces — to abandon Maduro. The uprising triggered protests in a poor neighborhood just a few miles (kilometers) from Venezuela’s presidential palace. It was dispersed with tear gas as residents set fire to a barricade of trash and chanted demands that Maduro leave power. The military said in a state-
ment said that it had recovered all the weapons and captured those involved in what it described as “treasonous” acts motivated by “obscure interests tied to the far right.” It said at around 2:50 a.m. (06:50 GMT), a small group of guardsmen took captive a captain in charge of a police station in western Caracas and then moved across the capital in two military trucks to the poor neighborhood of Petare, where they stole a cache of weapons from another outpost. Officials said 25 soldiers were quickly caught at the National Guard outpost 3 kilometers (2 miles) from the Miraflores presidential palace, and two more arrests were made at another location. A few hours earlier, a group of heavily armed national guardsmen published a series of videos on social media saying they won’t recognize Maduro’s government, which has come under increasing domestic and international pressure over a newly begun second term that the opposition-controlled congress and many nations consider illegitimate. In one of the videos, a man identifying himself as 3rd Sgt. Alexander Bandres Figueroa,

addressing the “people of Venezuela,” urges his compatriots to take to the streets to show support for their rebellion. “You asked to take to the streets to defend the constitution, well here we are,” he said in a video shot at night in which several heavily armed men and a national guard truck can be seen in the background. “You wanted us to light the fuse, so we did. We need your support,” he added. At daybreak in the adjacent neighborhood of Cotiza, a group of shirtless young men,
some with their faces covered, built a barricade across the street with a burning car, heavy sewer grates and a large chunk of concrete. An angry group of women shouted that they have lived for too long without running water and tear gas fired by security forces choked their children. “Freedom! Freedom!” they chanted. “Maduro has to go!” “We must defend our homeland,” Maria Fernanda Rodriguez, a 36-year-old manicurist, told The Associated Press, her eyes welling from the tear gas.
KABUL, Afghanistan — A Taliban assault on a military base and police training center in a province just outside the Afghan capital on Monday killed at least 12 people and wounded more than 30, officials said. Salem Asgherkhail, head of the area’s public health department, said most of those killed in the attack in Maidan Wardak province were military personnel. Some of the wounded were taken to local hospitals for treatment while the more serious cases were sent to the capital, Kabul. Nasrat Rahimi, deputy spokesman for the interior minister, said a suicide car bomber struck the base before insurgents opened fire. Sharifullah Hotak, a provincial council member, said four attackers took part in the assault after the bombing, all of whom were killed in the ensuing gunbattle. Hotak said it was a training base for new recruits from the area. The Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack in a statement to the media. The Taliban, who now hold sway in almost half of Afghanistan, carry out attacks on a daily basis, mainly targeting the beleaguered security forces. The violence comes amid stepped-up efforts by the United States to find a negotiated end to the 17-year war.
Accidental blast in Yemen kills 5 demining specialists SANAA, Yemen — Five foreign demining specialists were killed in an accidental explosion in Yemen while transporting mines and explosives to be destroyed, their employer said Monday. The MASAM Demining Project said the two South Africans, a Croatian, a Bosnian and a Kosovar were killed Sunday while transporting the material in the central Marib province to a remote location where it could be safely detonated. It said a British national was wounded. The project, part of the Saudi King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center, began last year and seeks to remove unexploded ordnance from Yemen, where a Saudiled coalition has been at war with Iran-aligned Houthi rebels since 2015. MASAM says the experts “lost their lives while attempting to bring safety and security to the Yemeni people, and their service to mankind will not be forgotten.” U.N. envoy Martin Griffiths meanwhile arrived in the capital, Sanaa, on an unannounced visit on Monday to discuss the situation in and around the coastal city of Hodeida, where Yemen’s warring parties agreed to a cease-fire last month. The two sides also agreed to a prisoner exchange last month that has yet to take place. Also under discussion will be disagreements between Yemen’s Houthi rebels, who hold Hodeida, and Retired Dutch Maj. Gen. Patrick Cammaert, who is heading a U.N. mission charged with monitoring the cease-fire. The mission plans to send additional observers into Yemen and wants to secure their safety, especially after a U.N.-marked armored vehicle in Cammaert’s convoy was hit with a round of small arms fire last week. — The Associated Press

Thompson hits 1st 10 from 3, Warriors cruise By The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Klay Thompson set an NBA record by making his first 10 attempts from 3-point range, scoring 44 points as the Golden State Warriors beat the short-handed Los Angeles Lakers 130-111 on Monday night to match a season high with their eighth consecutive victory. Thompson finished 10 of 11 from beyond the arc and the two-time defending champions won their seventh straight road game. The star guard had 23 points in the third quarter, connecting on seven 3s as the Warriors stretched their lead to 36 points. He finally missed from deep late in the period.

Harden, selected Western Conference player of the week earlier in the day, finished with 37 points — giving him 20 straight games with at least 30. Embiid’s 24 first-half points helped Philadelphia to a 65-50 halftime lead, and he punctuated an entertaining opening 24 minutes by pinning Harden’s layup attempt with 7.5 seconds left for a crowdpleasing block. The duo had to be separated with 38.7 seconds left in the half, with each being issued a technical, after Harden took exception to Embiid’s foul on him.

CORTINA D’AMPEZZO, Italy — A passing of the torch moment. A generational transformation marked by a veteran’s tears and the unbridled joy of youth. Call it what you want, it seemed like destiny played a role when Mikaela Shiffrin won what could very well turn out to be Lindsey Vonn’s last race. In the space of about a half hour on Sunday, Vonn broke down emotionally after she failed to finish a World Cup super-G on knees so worn down that she describes them as “bone on bone,” then Shiffrin came down nine racers later and won her first speed race at the premier stop on the women’s circuit. Shortly after the normally reserved Shiffrin unleashed an unusual hands-over-her-head celebration, Vonn announced that she was considering moving up her retirement. “As a fan of ski racing and as an American, if Lindsey’s not there it’s awesome to see another American girl
on top,” said retired U.S. racer Daron Rahlves, who was in attendance. “But I know it’s burning inside for Lindsey.” After collecting herself, the 34-year-old Vonn went over and embraced the 23-year-old Shiffrin, who was standing in the leader’s box. “I just told her, ‘Congratulations and awesome skiing. It was a well-earned victory today,’” Vonn said. Not too long ago, it was a moment that Shiffrin could only have dreamed of. “When I was younger she was someone I looked up to like crazy,” Shiffrin said. “I was doing book reports on her. I was one of those fans.” Lately, Shiffrin has had a front-row seat to observe Vonn’s perseverance. At Shiffrin’s first world championships in Schladming, Austria, she watched as Vonn tumbled head first into one of the ugliest and most damaging crashes of her career — the one that eventually kept Vonn out of the 2014 Sochi Olympics. Shiffrin, by then an Olympic champion like her idol,
was also there when Vonn, 33 at the time, won a bronze in the downhill at last year’s Pyeongchang Games, becoming the oldest female medalist in Olympic history for Alpine skiing. “The speed that she has is just in her — more speed than everyone else — it lives in her bones,” Shiffrin said. “Managing that with the injuries that she’s had and the mentality she always has to push 1,000 percent ... I’ve always been watching that.” While Vonn returned this weekend from a left knee injury — she hyperextended it and sprained a ligament in November — her right knee is permanently damaged from previous crashes . She has also suffered fractures near her left knee, broken her ankle, sliced her right thumb, had a concussion and more. Vonn was planning on retiring in December but her results this past weekend — her best finish in three races was ninth — prompted her to consider leaving the sport earlier. “There’s only so much I can handle and I might have reached my maximum,” Vonn said Sunday.
Coyle pushes Wild past Golden Knights By The Associated Press
LAS VEGAS — Charlie Coyle scored his second game-winning goal of the season with 5:31 remaining to lift the Minnesota Wild past the Vegas Golden Knights 4-2 on Monday. With the win, the Wild moved past Colorado and Vancouver into the top wild-card slot in the Western Conference. Minnesota takes on Colorado on Wednesday, the final game before the All-Star break for both teams. With the puck loose in front of the net, Jared Spurgeon sent a perfect pass to Coyle, who beat Vegas goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury with a high shot that put the Wild in front. Marcos Foligno, Eric Staal and Mikko Koivu also scored for the Wild.
Devan Dubnyk made 30 saves and has stopped 64 of 67 shots in his last three games. Alex Tuch and Max Pacioretty scored for the Golden Knights. Fleury made 18 saves for Vegas. The loss kept Vegas in third place in the Pacific Division, behind first-place Calgary and San Jose.
Anze Kopitar and Tyler Toffoli each had a goal and an assist, while Brendan Leipsic had two assists. Drew Doughty also scored for Los Angeles, which has won three of its last five. Mackenzie MacEachern, Oskar Sundqvist and Ryan O’Reilly scored for St. Louis. Jordan Binnington made 25 saves.

Tsitsipas topples Agut to reach Australian semis By HOWARD FENDRICH AP Tennis Writer
MELBOURNE, Australia — Lest anyone get the idea that Stefanos Tsitsipas’ upset of Roger Federer was a fluke, the 20-year-old from Greece followed it up by beating No. 22 seed Roberto Bautista Agut 7-5, 4-6, 6-4, 7-6 (2) at the Australian Open on Tuesday to become the youngest Grand Slam semifinalist since 2007.
“That was a great win. It got people’s attention,” Tsitsipas said about his fourth-round stunner against two-time defending champion Federer on Sunday. “My biggest challenge was to stay concentrated, stay focused,” in order to show that the previous victory “didn’t happen accidentally.” Cheered on by a loud, flagwaving contingent of Greek fans inside and outside Rod Laver Arena, Tsitsipas again dis-
played his varied skill set, with 22 aces, 30 more winners than unforced errors (68-38) and a nose for getting to the net. He was down a break in both the first and third sets before turning them around against Bautista Agut, whose run to the quarterfinals included victories over Andy Murray, a three-time major champion, and Marin Cilic, the 2014 U.S. Open champion and the runner-up to Federer at Melbourne Park a
year ago. “Well, he’s a good player, no? He’s very complete. He has a good forehand and backhand. He’s serving well,” Bautista Agut said about Tsitsipas. “I think he knows the game. He knows how to play.” Now the 14th-seeded Tsitsipas gets to continue the best showing of his career, one that marks him as perhaps the sport’s next big thing. And make no mistake about
it: He is a millennial, through and through, even promoting his 27,000-follower YouTube channel during his on-court interview. “Guys,” he told the crowd, “if you haven’t subscribed, please subscribe.” No man as young as Tsitsipas had been this far at any Grand Slam tournament since Novak Djokovic at the 2007 U.S. Open or at the Australian See OPEN, page A8

. . . Open Continued from page A7
Open since Andy Roddick in 2003. “It all feels like a fairy tale, almost. I’m just living the dream, living what I’ve been working hard for,” said Tsitsipas, who dropped his racket, fell on his back and covered his face with his hands at match’s end. “I mean, I feel a bit emotional but not too much because I know I worked hard to get
here.” Seated in his courtside guest box were his parents and two siblings, along with Patrick Mouratoglou, who is Serena Williams’ coach and serves as a mentor to Tsitsipas. Now they’ll turn their attention to his next opponent, either 17-time major champion Rafael Nadal or another up-andcoming member of the sport’s new generation, 21-year-old American Frances Tiafoe. Nadal and Tiafoe were scheduled to play their quarterfinal Tuesday night.
Sports Briefs Rockets trade Anthony to Chicago MILWAUKEE — Carmelo Anthony is going to Chicago, albeit only on paper. Where he’s going next remains unclear. A person with direct knowledge of the matter said the Houston Rockets are trading Anthony and an undisclosed amount of cash to the Bulls in a deal that is expected to be completed Tuesday. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Monday because the trade still needs league approval. When that comes — the only reason why it didn’t happen Monday is because the NBA office was closed to commemorate the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. holiday — Anthony will have a new team, though still won’t be back on the floor. The Bulls have no plans to play Anthony and will look to either trade him before the Feb. 7 deadline or ultimately waive him and make him a free agent. The trade ends a short-lived saga in Houston for Anthony, who averaged 13.4 points in 10 games with the Rockets. He has not played since Nov. 8. Anthony was traded by Oklahoma City to Atlanta in July, a move that preceded the Hawks releasing him to sign with the Rockets. The Bulls, technically, will be Anthony’s fourth franchise in seven months, with likely one more to come before long. “We just had to see how things worked out,” Rockets coach Mike D’Antoni said in November when the team said it was parting ways with Anthony. “And the way we play probably wasn’t conducive to his game, and he was trying to make the necessary sacrifices and it wasn’t fair to him as a Hall of Fame player to play in a way that wasn’t good for him, wasn’t good for us. It just wasn’t a fit.”
Officiating helps determine champions
T
he last thing the NFL would ever want is for an officiating mistake to decide the Super Bowl. On Sunday, the league might have made enough errors to determine both teams that will play in the championship game in two weeks. The most egregious gaffe came in the NFC title game in New Orleans. The Saints were in position to put away the Rams when Tommylee Lewis blatantly was interfered with inside the Los Angeles 5-yard line by cornerback Nickell Robey-Coleman. Not only did Robey-Coleman hit Lewis early, he did so helmet to helmet. Next weekend, we’ll hear about Robey-Coleman being fined for the collision — even though, incredibly, no flag was thrown. “Came to the sideline, looked at the football gods and was like, ‘Thank you,’” RobeyColeman said. “I got away with one tonight.” Such a big one that it kept the Rams alive. Instead of a first down and the chance to run down the clock before making a field goal, or score a touchdown for a bigger lead, the Saints wound up with Wil Lutz’s 31-yard kick. That made it 23-20 with 1:41 left in regulation, plenty of time for the Rams to march to Greg Zuerlein’s tying 48-yard field goal. “Greg The Leg” won it with a 57-yarder in OT. His heroics almost certainly never would

Reid challenged, and replay indicated far more evidence the ground helped Hogan make the catch than the previous review showed Edelman whiffed on the ball. No matter. The catch was upheld, and six plays later, Sony Michel scored a touchdown. Chiefs linebacker Dee Ford also went offside on the Patriots’ final drive in regulation, negating an interception by Charvarius Ward that could have clinched a win. But there was little controversy there. The league has been under heavy scrutiny and drawn massive criticism about its officiating in the last few years. The perception is that the NFL needs full-time officials, which might help somewhat, and in part is being done. However, the deeper issues are too many rules and tangents to those rules; points of emphasis that get hammered in, then seemingly are discarded; and officials who struggle to keep up with the speed of the sport. The league prizes experience, but when one of its most experienced crews blows a call so blatant that even the perpetrator acknowledges he caught a break, the storm of protest will rage. Rightly so.
More sex abuse claims hit South Korean skating
Pats overcome obstacles to make Super Bowl
SEOUL, South Korea — More South Korean female skaters are accusing their coaches of sexually abusing them, a group representing the athletes disclosed Monday following claims by two-time Olympic champion Shim Suk-hee that her former coach had repeatedly raped her. The announcement came amid a growing #MeToo movement in South Korea’s elite sports scene, which has been notorious for a brutal training culture and highly hierarchical relationships between coaches and athletes. In addition to Shim, female athletes in judo, taekwondo and wrestling have also accused their male coaches of sexually abusing them. Members of the country’s silver medal-winning Olympic curling team, cheered as the Garlic Girls for their hometown’s famed produce, have accused their former coaches of verbal abuse and holding back prize money. In a news conference at South Korea’s parliament, a group called Solidarity for Young Skaters said five other skaters had been sexually abused by their coaches. The group didn’t reveal any names, citing privacy worries. Lawmaker Sohn Hye-won, who appeared in the same news conference, said one of the alleged victims said she was repeatedly groped as a teen by a coach while training at the Korea National Sport University, a powerhouse in producing Olympic athletes. The skater said the unidentified coach would forcibly hug and kiss her and verbally abused her after she rejected his advances, Sohn said.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Tom Brady smiled his way through the week leading up to Sunday’s AFC championship game, mostly brushing aside questions about being an underdog for one of the few times during the Patriots’ unprecedented run of titles. But when Rex Burkhead crossed the goal line for a 2-yard touchdown to give New England a 37-31 overtime win over the Kansas City Chiefs, Brady let joy alter his usual coy demeanor. He ripped off his helmet and leapt wildly in the air as
his teammates rushed the field around him. The Patriots were heading back to another Super Bowl. It will mark their third straight appearance for the Patriots and ninth overall for Brady, who again will be chasing a record sixth ring. A victory over the NFC champion Los Angeles Rams would also put an emphatic stamp on what may have been the Patriots’ toughest road to a Super Bowl since Brady and Bill Belichick earned their first ring together in 2001. “The odds were stacked against us. It hasn’t been that way in a while and it certainly was this year,” Brady said.
The obstacles that Brady referred to occurred both on and off the field for this latest incarnation of the Patriots. The offseason saw the departure of several key players from last year’s team that came up short in a Super Bowl loss to Philadelphia. Receiver Brandin Cooks was traded to the Rams and cornerback Malcolm Butler, running back Dion Lewis, receiver Danny Amendola, and offensive linemen Nate Solder and Cam Fleming all left in free agency. Then came news that stalwart receiver Julian Edelman would be suspended for the first four games of the regular season for violating the league’s
policy on performance enhancers. It helped contribute to a surprise 1-2 start and the first — albeit small — signs of age for the 41-year-old Brady. New England took a chance and traded for receiver Josh Gordon after Cleveland decided it was time to part ways with him. His arrival helped calm things and contributed to six consecutive victories. But questions returned after a lopsided Week 10 loss at Tennessee that exposed vulnerabilities on both sides of the ball. The Patriots won their next two, but then suffered a fluky last-second loss at Miami.

Man plans to give girlfriend a ring without a proposal DEAR ABBY: My girlfriend, “Jane,” and I have been in love for three years. We’re both in our 30s. Jane and her daughter have lived with me long enough to know that I want to be a part of -- and contribute to -- the rest of their lives. Jane knows I never want to be married, but that I am committed to her. I know how to make sure she is taken care of in the event that I pass away, and I’m in the process of making that a reality. I would like to give her a special diamond. Is there a way to give her the moment she deserves without asking her to marry me?
-- SHE DESERVES BETTER DEAR SHE DESERVES BETTER: I doubt it. If Jane would like to be married and is open about your relationship, don’t be surprised if she tells you she would rather have a proposal and a wedding than a diamond and a legal document.
-- CALENDAR GIRL IN ILLINOIS DEAR CALENDAR GIRL: Why do I think there is more to this story than you have mentioned? Your husband may have done -- or not done -something that upset his parents, and this may be their passive-aggressive Abigail Van Buren way of punishing him. Do not “remind” them of the birthday. They are well aware of when it is. Instead, plan a celebration for him with some of his friends, and make the occasion a happy one with no mention of his parents.

ers want to hear the music. I was at a golf tournament recently, and we asked the DJs to turn the volume down because the players were still golfing. They did, but when players started coming in, the music got louder and louder until it was blasting. The more people who came in, the louder it got. Abby, how do you feel about this?
-- TOO LOUD IN NEW HAMPSHIRE DEAR TOO LOUD: This may happen because of the size of the room or the mood the musicians are attempting to create. However, unless music is being played in a dance club, increasing the volume to the point that attendees cannot comfortably carry on a conversation is intrusive.

Hints from Heloise
Rubes
this person and show it. Goodwill and honesty build an even stronger bond between you and this person. The end result could be surprising and totally unanticipated. Tonight: Order in. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Observe a tendency to go overboard in some area of your life. You might go out of your way to please someone, or you easily might go on a spending spree to ease some tension. Whatever you choose, you will have a tendency to go to extremes. Tonight: Ready to recycle and have some fun. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH Your spirit naturally encourages taking risks and having fun along the way. Remember that not every risk that feels good will pay off. In the near future, be more discerning. You could be surprised by what an expert might share with you. Tonight: Catch up on paperwork. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HH You might feel as though you want to take a back seat in a touchy situation. Before coming to a conclusion, listen more; however, don’t hesitate to ask a question or two. A close partner or loved one shares his or her perspective. You could be surprised by what this person says. Tonight: Nap, then decide. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Use the daylight hours to the max. You find a meeting to be significant and important to your wellbeing. You also discover how much support you have from your immediate circle regarding a new venture. Know that you can achieve this goal; however, a surprise also might be part of the journey. Tonight: Do not burn the midnight oil. Go to bed early. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH Your playful manner draws

the attention of others. Optimism surrounds a meeting at work or within your community. Your energy might not be stable, and you could be subject to highs and lows. Take a break if you need to; however, attempt to stay on course. Tonight: Celebrate a change of plans. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH Allow optimism to lead you, but follow through on details and reach out for more advice. If done well, your research could define the path to a successful project. Refuse to be corned by an assertive personality in your life. Tonight: A force to behold. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHHH One-on-one relating allows greater flow and insight. As a result, your perspective and plans could veer in a new direction. Use time as an ally. Your inner voice encourages you to step forward and take the lead. Tonight: Go with the good times. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Defer to a key person in your life. You might not agree, but the difference in opinions might not be as critical as you think it is. A friend has some important information or possibly a bit of gossip for you. Listen, then decide how significant the news is. Tonight: Leave stress behind. Hook up with a loved one. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Dig into work. Don’t allow distractions to play a role. You will note how much you accomplish in such a brief time. Clear out as much as you can. Your more playful side or personality emerges late in the day. Tonight: Say “yes” to an invitation. BORN TODAY Singer Steve Perry (1949), record producer DJ Jazzy Jeff (1965), actress Linda Blair (1959)
This sale is a GOOB? Dear Readers: Consumer sales tend to slip in January, and retailers may be looking for ways to entice you back into the store. One tactic to be aware of: the “GOING OUT OF BUSINESS” (GOOB) sale. According to the Federal Trade Commission (www.ftc.gov), if a store is truly going out of business, its affairs are probably being handled by a liquidation company. What does that mean? All bets are off. The store probably won’t accept its own gift cards, gift certificates, coupons or store credits, and once you buy something, it’s yours -- no refunds or exchanges. Percentage discounts will be based on the manufacturer’s suggested retail price, not the store’s current price. That’ll probably be higher. As always, continue to comparisonshop. Don’t let the pressure of a GOOB sale lure you into a deal you may not want. -- Heloise DEBT MANAGEMENT Dear Heloise: Debt management may be on everyone’s mind after the holiday spending season. Consider a debt management program, such as credit counseling. Here are some things a credit counselor can do: * Lower your monthly payment amount and your interest rate. * Combine all payments into one easy payment. * Provide you budgeting advice, including setting a budget. These agencies can help folks get out and stay out of debt, and their services usually are free and always confidential! -- Sherry N. in Chicago Thanks for your letter. Readers, check out www.credit.org for more hints. -- Heloise

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Tuesday, Jan. 22, 2019: This year, because of an openness to new ideas and the support of several close friends, you will be able to manifest more of what you desire. You might not even experience anxiety when heading in a new direction. If you’re single, a friendship could develop into a fairly intense romance. However, as you transform this tie, don’t lose sight of the friendship. If you’re attached, you and your partner make a strong team and will zero in on a major goal that you have as a couple. You will have reason to celebrate. VIRGO fusses to no end, which sometimes annoys you! The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 20-April 19) HHHH You naturally choose the correct action. Because you take a risk without hesitation, some people observing you might feel as though the wind is knocked out of their sails. However, they admire your clarity. You simply are sure of yourself and know what you’re doing. Your spontaneity works for you. Tonight: Do not push. Call it an early night. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH Once again, you’d prefer working from home. If possible, follow through on that thought. Because this need keeps rearing its head in your life, you also might want to consider developing a home-based business. Honor this desire; you might be much happier. Tonight: As you eye options, brainstorm with a dear friend. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH You might be taken aback by a close associate and his or her willingness to suddenly trust and take a leap of faith. You admire

Pets Cartoon library gets Marmaduke collection spanning 56 years By ERIC LAGATTA The Columbus Dispatch
COLUMBUS, Ohio — A Great Dane known for making mischief has a permanent home in Columbus. The Billy Ireland Cartoon Library & Museum has acquired more than 16,000 Marmaduke cartoons from 1954 to 2010. The cartoons are part of a collection that includes strip’s creator Brad Anderson’s original art, correspondence, fan mail, memorabilia and more. Anderson had no significant connection to Columbus but, before his death in 2015,
had been in contact with the library’s curators about housing his work at the venue, curator Jenny Robb said. The library, on the Ohio State University campus, also serves as an archive for the National Cartoonists Society, of which Anderson was a member. “My dad had said for a number of years that he wanted all his Marmadukes and all his collection of cartoons and other artifacts to go to the museum because he thought they did a wonderful job� said Christine Potchernick, one of Anderson’s four children. “He was very impressed with the museum.�

In addition to those cartoons, the collection obtained by the Billy Ireland includes Anderson’s early watercolor paintings from his undergraduate years at Syracuse University in New York and 3,000 of

Potchernick, who lives with her husband in Montgomery, Texas, is excited to see her father’s life work live on at the museum. “I just think so many people with dogs can relate to Marmaduke,� she said. “He thought comics were an important part of everyday life, and he always said, ‘If they give a little smile or chuckle, I’m happy.’�

In the meantime, Robb said, the public, upon request, can view any part of the collection in the library’s reading room. Some of it is already available as part of the Billy Ireland’s digital collection. Anderson, who grew up drawing cartoons in Jamestown, New York, created Mar-

Robb said the museum is grateful for the privilege of maintaining such a beloved strip. “Marmaduke is one of the most popular (comics) of the 20th century and beyond,� she said. “So many people who are pet owners can identify with it, and it has ... entertained people for decades.� The library is working to catalog and digitize the collection — a process that could take a
