In the news Ketchikan couple charged in felony heroin, meth case KETCHIKAN — State prosecutors in Ketchikan have charged a local couple with possessing illegal drugs with an estimated street value of more than $250,000.

The Ketchikan Daily New reports 35-year-old Jason Simpson and 33-year-old Angelina McDonald face two felony counts of drug misconduct.

They are represented by the public defender’s office, which did not immediately respond to an email request for comment.

Alaska State Troopers say Simpson and McDonald were found last week in possession of 175 grams of heroin, valued at $175,000, and 121 grams of methamphetamine, with a street value of $80,000.

Investigators say they also recovered a digital scale covered in drug residue, heroin packaged for distribution and a large amount of cash.

Trooper spokeswoman Megan Peters declined to say where the arrest occurred, citing an ongoing investigation.

Author Jon Krakauer sues over adaptation of ‘Into the Wild’ BOULDER, Colo. — Author Jon Krakauer has filed suit over a musical adaptation of his 1996 book “Into the Wild.”

The Boulder Daily Camera reported Friday Krakauer originally agreed to let playwrights Nikos Tsakalakos and Janet Allard use his name and the book title but changed his mind because he objected to their script.

The lawsuit asks a judge to stop the playwrights from using his name and the title. His attorneys say the agreement allows him to withdraw his permission.

The lawsuit was filed Nov. 30 in state court in Boulder, where Krakauer lives.

The newspaper says the playwrights didn’t respond to requests for comment.

“Into the Wild” recounts Christopher McCandless’ death in the Alaska wilderness. Krakauer’s lawsuit also names the Christopher Johnson McCandless Memorial Foundation, which had also agreed to the adaptation.

Top House Dems raise prospect of impeachment, jail for Trump

By HOPE YEN Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Top House Democrats on Sunday raised the prospect of impeachment or almost-certain prison time for President Donald Trump if it’s proved that he directed illegal hushmoney payments to women, adding to the legal pressure on the president over the Russia investigation and other scandals.

“There’s a very real prospect that on the day Donald Trump leaves office, the Justice Department may indict him, that he may be the first president in quite some time to face the real prospect of jail time,” said Rep. Adam Schiff, the incoming chairman of the House intelligence

incoming chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, described the details in prosecutors’ filings Friday in the case of Trump’s former personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, as evidence that Trump was “at the center of a massive fraud.”

“They would be impeachable offenses,” Nadler said.

In the filings, prosecutors in New York for the first time link Trump to a federal crime of illegal payments to buy the silence of two women during the 2016 campaign.

Students work on dignity, kindness with Heritage Place residents

By VICTORIA PETERSEN Peninsula Clarion

On Friday, kindergartners from K-Beach Elementary School visited residents at Heritage Place, a continuing care facility for seniors and the disabled, for a Dignity Mission.

Dignity Missions offer the power to heal, Aud Walaszek, Heritage Place activities coordinator, said.

“We do a Dignity Mission with them so they can take this back with them to their school and their families and they can learn how to treat other people,” Walaszek said.

Friday’s Dignity Mission divided the students and residents into three separate groups. One group was working together to make Dignity Mission T-shirts, another group had residents reading to students and another had Residents from Heritage Place help kindergarten students make Dignity Mission T-shirts during See PLACE, page A3 a visit Friday in Soldotna.

Survivors, moms get tattoos for suicide prevention

By BEN HOHENSTATT Capital City Weekly

JUNEAU — People wearing hats and coats huddled and chatted, sending condensation from their breath and words into the air.

The small crowd was waiting for Taku Tattoo to open its doors at 10 a.m. and begin scheduling appointments for a suicide prevention tattoo special. For Friday, Nov. 30, business card-sized tattoos were $50 with half of the proceeds going toward Juneau Suicide Prevention Coalition.

“The response has been incredible,” said shop manager Amy Ridle.

Kathryn Beers was part of the morning crowd, and she planned to get “Be Kind ;” tattooed in honor of her friend’s deceased brother, Tommy Weeks.

“It’s a reminder to be kind to myself as well as others,” Beers said.

The semicolon included with the simple phrase is in reference to the punctuation mark’s status as a suicide prevention symbol. The mark shows that an author could have ended a

sentence, but chose instead to continue.

The planned tattoo is Beers’ second. She received her first in August.

Kenai bluff stabilization project moves forward

By VICTORIA PETERSEN Peninsula Clarion

A project seeking to stabilize Kenai’s bluff has seen development in the last month. On Nov. 16, a director’s report was finalized by the Alaska branch of the Army Corp of Engineers, a project partner with the City of Kenai. The report is a feasibility study.

“It looks to see if it makes sense and if the project is feasible,” Kenai City Manager Paul Ostrander said.

The objective of the project is to stall the 3-feet-peryear erosion on a 1-mile stretch of land starting from North Beach, past the senior center and ending where the original canneries were. The idea is to install a mile-long rock berm, using anchor rocks that would halt the erosion of the ground beneath Old Town Kenai.

This is the first of three milestones in a project the city has been tackling for more than 30 years. The most recent efforts to get the project completed began in 2011.

“It’s been a long effort,” Ostrander said.

Ostrander grew up in the area and said he’s seen the area erode over time.

“There are several buildings that used to be there that are now long gone,” he said.

Besides protecting current properties and buildings in Old Town Kenai, Ostrander said one reason the city is looking to stabilize the bluff is to increase investment opportunities in the historic district, which Ostrander said have been limited in the last few decades.

Now that the feasibility report has been finalized, efforts on the next milestone, the design phase, can begin.

The design phase can be tricky, Ostrander said, because federal funding is needed for the $1 million See BLUFF, page A2

High cost keeps earthquake insurance coverage down ANCHORAGE (AP) — With Alaska’s history of earthquakes, you might assume most homeowners have earthquake insurance.

That’s not the case, the Anchorage Daily News reported.

Only about 15 percent of Alaska homeowners buy earthquake insurance, according to an estimate provided by Lori Wing-Heier, director of the state’s Division of Insurance.

“It’s not a great number,” she said.

Lenders do not require earthquake insurance. It also carries a high price tag.

And after a major quake, like the magnitude 7.0 quake that shook southcentral Alaska on Nov. 30, homeowners may find that the damage is less than the deductible on their policy.

Deductibles vary but can be about 20 percent of the value of the dwelling, said Tracey Parrish, owner of Alaska Pacific Insurance

Agency.

“If your home is $100,000, people probably don’t have that ($20,000) sitting around,” she said.

“And if they do, they may only have $5,000 worth of damage.”

The longer the time span between big earthquakes, the less likely people are to pay a premium for it, WingHeier said.

Earthquake insurance typically covers repairs such as cracking and may cover structures such as garages as well, said Janet Ruiz, a West Coast representative for the Insurance Information Institute, a trade group. It also usually insures personal property and may cover other costs.

John Lane and his family moved into an Eagle River home three months ago.

Their homeowner’s policy cost $1,300 to $1,500 and he could not justify spending another $1,000 for quake See QUAKE, page A2

publican campaign by playing to both his political and personal business interests.

Trump has denied wrongdoing and has compared the investigations to a “witch hunt.”

Nadler, D-N.Y., said it was too early to say whether Congress would pursue impeachment proceedings based on the illegal payments alone because lawmakers would need to weigh the gravity of the offense to justify “overturning” the 2016 election. Nadler and other lawmakers said Sunday they would await additional details from Mueller’s investigation into Russian election interference and possible coordination with the Trump campaign to determine the extent of Trump’s misconduct.

Regarding the illegal payments, “whether they are important enough to justify an impeachment is a different question, but certainly they’d be impeachable offenses because even though they were committed before the president became president, they were committed in the service of fraudulently obtaining the office,” Nadler said.

Mueller has not said when he will complete a report of any findings, and it isn’t clear

cost. The city has secured a $350,000 match for the grant they hope the federal government awards them in the next year.

“Getting funding for these projects is highly competitive,” Ostrander said. “We want to position ourselves to get funding as quickly as possible.”

Once the design phase is complete, the construction phase can begin, which Ostrander said has a price tag of approximately $24-40 million.

that any such report would be made available to Congress.

That would be up to the attorney general. Trump on Friday said he would nominate former Attorney General William Barr to the post to succeed Jeff Sessions.

Nadler indicated that Democrats, who will control the House in January, will step up their own investigations.

He said Congress, the Justice Department and the special counsel need to dig deeper into the allegations, which include questions about whether Trump lied about his business arrangements with Russians and about possible obstruction of justice.

“The new Congress will not try to shield the president,” he said. “We will try to get to the bottom of this, in order to serve the American people and to stop this massive conspiracy — this massive fraud on the American people.”

Schiff, D-Calif., also stressed a need to wait “until we see the full picture.” He has previously indicated his panel would seek to look into the Trump family’s business ties with Russia.

“I think we also need to see this as a part of a broader pattern of potential misconduct by the president, and it’s that broad pattern, I think, that will lead us to a conclusion about whether it rises to the level to warrant removal from

office,” Schiff said.

In the legal filings, the Justice Department stopped short of accusing Trump of directly committing a crime.

But it said Trump told Cohen to make illegal payments to porn actress Stormy Daniels and former Playboy model Karen McDougal, both of whom claimed to have had affairs with Trump more than a decade ago.

In separate filings, Mueller’s team detail how Cohen spoke to a Russian who “claimed to be a ‘trusted person’ in the Russian Federation who could offer the campaign ‘political synergy’ and ‘synergy on a government level.’” Cohen said he never followed up on that meeting.

Mueller’s team also said former campaign chairman Paul Manafort lied to them about his contacts with a Russian associate and Trump administration officials, including in 2018.

Republican Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida called the latest filings “relevant” in judging Trump’s fitness for office but said lawmakers need more information to render judgment. He also warned the White House about considering a pardon for Manafort, saying such a step could trigger congressional debate about limiting a president’s pardon powers.

Such a move would be “a terrible mistake,” Rubio said.

“Pardons should be used judiciously. They’re used for cases with extraordinary circumstances.”

Sen. Angus King, an independent from Maine and a member of the Senate intelligence committee, cautioned against a rush to impeachment, which he said citizens could interpret as “political revenge and a coup against the president.”

“The best way to solve a problem like this, to me, is elections,” King said. “I’m a conservative when it comes to impeachment. I think it’s a last resort and only when the evidence is clear of a really substantial legal violation.

We may get there, but we’re not there now.”

Democratic Sen. Chris Murphy of Connecticut urged Mueller to “show his cards soon” so that Congress can make a determination early next year on whether to act on impeachment.

“Let’s be clear: We have reached a new level in the investigation,” Murphy said.

“It’s important for Congress to get all of the underlying facts and data and evidence that the special counsel has.”

Nadler spoke on CNN’s “State of the Union,” Rubio was on CNN and ABC’s “This Week,” and Schiff appeared on CBS’ “Face the Nation.”

Murphy spoke on ABC, and King was on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

The Clarion previously reported that the city would cover a 35 percent share of the cost, with $6 million already secured from a $4 million state grant and $2 million in voterapproved bonds. The rest of the project would be funded by the Army Corps of Engineers. The city could apply for other grants or use more bonds to cover the other portions of their share of the bull.

residents and students playing icebreaker games together.

It’s the third year kindergartners from K-Beach Elementary have visited Heritage Place, April Kaufman, a kindergarten teacher from K-Beach Elementary, said on Friday.

“Throughout the school year we begin to practice how it looks, how it feels and how it sounds to be responsible, respectable and safe,” Kaufman said. “We model and role play it. When there are conflict and resolution opportunities we build that vocabulary in.”

Kaufman said she and her students love visiting Heritage Place.

“I love to see the sparkles

in the residents’ eyes, as well as the children and the parents,” Kaufman said. “We all get something from it.”

While visiting with residents at Heritage Place, the students get an opportunity to practice introducing themselves.

Lily, a student in Kaufman’s class, said she enjoyed introducing herself to the residents at Heritage Place.

“I felt joy and love when I said, ‘Hello, what’s your name?’” she said.

Another student, Neil, said he enjoyed the lessons he learned.

“I had a good time because I learned about kindness,” he said. “People were being nice.”

Students from several schools in the area are working together to interact with the residents at Heritage Place.

. . .Tattoo Continued from page A1

“I figured, what the hell, I’m not getting any younger,” Beers said. “When they say tattoos are addicting, they aren’t kidding.”

Her first tattoo, a depiction of fireweed, is also a personal symbol.

As a survivor of genderbased violence, Beers said she found the resilient plant inspirational and had it tattooed on the back of her ankle, where it could put down roots.

“No matter what you do, the fireweed comes back,” Beers said.

Jonathan Funk was one of the first-timers getting a tattoo. He was wearing a suicide prevention sweatshirt when he showed up to sign up for an appointment.

“I’m getting it because suicide is an issue that’s near and dear to my heart,” Funk said.

He declined to share more but said a semicolon tattoo was something he had been thinking of getting for a while, and the prevention event offered a great opportunity to get it.

When Funk returned to get his water color-inspired tattoo, he was joined by his mom, Pat Funk, who was there for support.

“He sold it,” she said. “I was

pretty hesitant. Who knows, I might be in here one of these days.”

That day had come for Theresa Hinchman and her daughter, Erica Ranney, who was visiting from Prince of Wales.

Each got matching butterfly tattoos that incorporated semicolons.

They were in memory of Hinchman’s daughter and Ranney’s sister, whom they lost to suicide.

“Since it’s for suicide prevention, I just wanted to be in town,” Ranney said.

Hinchman was pleased with her tattoo and after it was completed took cellphone photos of their matching ink.

“I love it,” she said.

Davina Cole also had her heart set on a semicolon design.

Cole’s semicolon was a selfdesigned piece that included elements of the Northwest art form formline based on input from Tlingit artist Wayne Price.

“I got excited about trying it out in formline,” Cole said. “I consider myself more of a dabbler.”

And she stressed the importance of the suicide prevention.

“Anything about suicide awareness is very important, especially in this town,” Cole said.

She said when people are lost to suicide, it’s often swept under the rug and not talked

about.

“That’s not how you deal with an epidemic,” Cole said.

Jan Reece, outreach coordinator for Juneau Suicide Prevention Coalition, said she was impressed with interest in the event.

Before 11 a.m. almost 20 people had already signed up to get tattoos, and nearly 70 people had expressed interest in doing so on Facebook.

“I don’t know when we’ll cut it off,” Ridle said. “We’re ready to stay late.”

The idea for the fundraiser and recognition of Survivor Day, which was Nov. 17, came from collaboration between Ridle and Juneau Suicide Prevention Coalition

employees, and it received a boost from other Juneau businesses.

Reece said the special event was supported by a baked goods donation from Pie in the Sky, lunch for the tattoo artists from Juneau Pizza and a flower arrangement from Martha’s Flowers & Gifts.

“I’m really impressed with the stories we’ve been able to share,” Reece said.

She was also pleased with what the community support will enable her organization to do.

“We’re going to use the funding to bring a documentary to the Gold Town the first of the year,” Reece said.

What Others Say

In fight between prosperity and climate action, prosperity wins ‘There is no Plan B because there is no Planet B,” Emmanuel Macron lectured Donald Trump — in English — when the American President withdrew from the Paris climate agreement last year. Well, apparently there is a Plan B after all. Mr. Macron stopped his fuel-tax increase after concluding that marginal carbon reductions aren’t worth kneecapping an economy and sacrificing his political career. Mr. Trump could have warned him.

The French President views stopping climate change as a grand legacy project, and he had hoped to use higher fuel taxes to discourage driving for the sake of slashing carbon emissions. It didn’t matter to him that French emissions already are very low on a per capita basis and further cuts to transport emissions would be extremely difficult to achieve. But this matters a great deal to lower-income rural voters whose use of cars for daily life and business was about to become much more expensive.

Those voters produced the yellow-vest movement — named for the safety gear they wear — that in turn has created a political crisis for Mr. Macron. What began as a few hundred thousand protesters scattered around the country became more than a million last weekend, including inexcusable rioting mobs in Paris.

Mr. Macron’s tax backtrack, which his government says is only for six months, might induce the protesters to return home. But the movement grew so large and garnered so much public sympathy that his entire economic-reform agenda is now in jeopardy. The fuel tax was not part of his election campaign.

Mr. Trump tried to warn the French leader, albeit indirectly. “No responsible leader can put the workers — and the people — of their country at this debilitating and tremendous disadvantage,” he said of the costs of the Paris climate deal when he announced America’s withdrawal last year. The point is that the public seems to understand better than progressive elites that the consequences of climate change, whatever they turn out to be, will be easier to confront the more prosperous the world is.

Ex-Trump fixer Michael Cohen portrayed as greedy opportunist

By JIM MUSTIAN and LARRY NEUMEISTER Associated Press

NEW YORK — For weeks, Michael Cohen sought to portray himself as a man who’d found his “true north” after years of shady business dealings and pit-bull loyalty to President Donald Trump.

Prosecutors offered a vastly different assessment Friday of the president’s former fixer, dismissing him as a duplicitous figure who badly misplayed his hand.

In a court filing ahead of Cohen’s sentencing next week, they assailed him as a greedy opportunist who rode Trump’s coattails to wealth and is now exaggerating his level of cooperation with investigators.

They said the “pattern of deception that permeated his professional life” was hidden from three dozen friends and relatives who wrote letters to the court hailing Cohen as “the true meaning of a ‘mensch,” a “consummate patriarch” and a selfless servant “whose manner and bearing is reminiscent of a more gracious era.”

“After cheating the IRS for years, lying to banks and to Congress, and seeking to criminally influence the Presidential election, Cohen’s decision to plead guilty rather than seek a pardon for his manifold crimes - does not make him a hero,” they wrote.

Cohen, 52, is facing the possibility of roughly four years in prison at a sentencing Dec. 12 for crimes that include tax evasion and helping to coordinate hush money payments to two women who claimed to have had affairs with Trump.

His lawyers said Cohen decided to plead guilty, cooperate with the special inquiry into Russian meddling in the 2016 elections and get sentenced quickly so he can put the case behind him and return to being a breadwinner for his wife of 24 years and their two college-age children.

Their campaign to portray him as a good person included collecting letters from longtime acquaintances telling how a — The Wall Street Journal, Dec. 4 teenage Cohen happened upon a misplaced wallet stuffed with over $1,000 and spent an hour searching for its rightful owner.

Or the day Cohen chauffeured a church choir to a cemetery. And when he paid for E-mail: the surgery of a housekeeper’s child who

couldn’t afford it.

“This is the true Michael,” wrote Randall D. Satin, a friend of Cohen’s for four decades.

Prosecutors told the judge they aren’t buying it.

“Now he seeks extraordinary leniency — a sentence of no jail time — based principally on his rose-colored view of the seriousness of the crimes; his claims to a sympathetic personal history; and his provision of certain information to law enforcement,” they wrote.

Cohen was a workaday attorney specializing in negligence and malpractice with a $75,000 salary in 2007 who caught Trump’s eye when he successfully fought the board of directors at a building where he lived when they sought to remove Trump’s name from it, prosecutors said.

Soon afterward, he was hired at the Trump Organization as a special counsel to Trump, earning $500,000 annually.

Reporters came to know him as an armtwisting advocate for Trump.

“If somebody does something Mr. Trump doesn’t like, I do everything in my power to resolve it to Mr. Trump’s benefit,” Cohen once told ABC News. “If you do something wrong, I’m going to come at you, grab you by the neck and I’m not going to let you go until I’m finished.”

Prosecutors, in their sentencing papers, cited one snarling exchange with a Daily Beast reporter.

“I will make sure that you and I meet one day while we’re in the courthouse.

And I will take you for every penny you still don’t have. And I will come after your (employer) and everybody else that you possibly know,” Cohen said.

On the side, Cohen invested in New York City’s taxi industry and in real estate and made high-interest loans to people in the cab business.

He has pleaded guilty to failing to report $4 million in income to the IRS from those businesses.

During the presidential campaign, Cohen worked with executives at the company that owns the National Enquirer to pay the former Playboy model, Karen McDougal, and the adult film actress Stormy Daniels not to talk to reporters about alleged sexual encounters with Trump, who says the af-

fairs never happened.

Cohen told prosecutors Trump directed him to make the payments.

After Trump’s election, Cohen left the Trump Organization and tried to cash in on his connections.

Big companies hired him to offer “insight and access” to the administration.

Those companies included AT&T, which paid Cohen $50,000 a month and the pharmaceutical giant Novartis, which paid Cohen $1.2 million.

Prosecutors haven’t charged Cohen with doing anything criminal in connection with those deals, but they singled out the work as “hollow,” saying he did minimal work.

After federal authorities raided his office earlier this year, Cohen’s loyalty to Trump faded. He told ABC News that his family and country came first.

In a court filing last week, Cohen’s lawyers said he had decided to “re-point his internal compass true north toward a productive, ethical and thoroughly law abiding life.”

“He could have fought the government and continued to hold to the party line, positioning himself perhaps for a pardon or clemency, but, instead - for himself, his family, and his country - he took personal responsibility for his own wrongdoing and contributed, and is prepared to continue to contribute, to an investigation that he views as thoroughly legitimate and vital,” they wrote.

In their filing Friday, prosecutors said Cohen acted out of self-interest.

“Any suggestion by Cohen that his meetings with law enforcement reflect a selfless and unprompted about-face are overstated,” the wrote.

In a separate court filing, special counsel Robert Mueller’s office had a more kind view of Cohen’s cooperation, saying he had provided useful information about attempts by Russian intermediaries to influence Trump, as well as other matters.

New York prosecutors said that while Cohen was helpful, he had declined to sign a formal cooperation agreement, which would have required him to confess any other crimes he might have committed.

Cohen, they wrote, wasn’t willing to do so.

They suggested only a slight reduction in his sentence for his cooperation.

Pence aide out of running for Trump chief of staff

By ZEKE MILLER Associated Press

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump’s top pick to replace chief of staff John Kelly, Nick Ayers, is no longer expected to fill the role.

Ayers, who is chief of staff to Vice President Mike Pence, was seen as the favorite for the job when Trump announced Saturday that Kelly would leave around year’s end. But a White House official said Sunday that Trump and Ayers could not reach agreement on Ayers’ length of service and that he would instead assist the president from outside the administration.

Ayers confirmed the decision in a tweet Sunday, thanking Trump and Pence for

giving him the opportunity to work in the White House. “I will be departing at the end of the year but will work with the #MAGA team to advance the cause,” he said.

It was not immediately clear whether Trump had a new favorite for the post. The official was not authorized to discuss the personnel issue by name and spoke on condition of anonymity.

Ayers and Trump had discussed the job for months. The new hire was to be key to a West Wing reshuffling to shift focus toward the 2020 re-election campaign and the challenge of governing with Democrats in control of the House.

Trump wants his next chief of staff to hold the job through the 2020 election, the official said. Ayers, who has young triplets, had long planned to leave the ad-

ministration at the end of the year, and had only agreed to serve in an interim basis through next spring.

Ayers will run a pro-Trump super PAC, according to a person familiar with his plans who was not authorized to discuss them by name.

Trump said Saturday that he expected to announce a replacement for Kelly in a day or two.

With Ayers out of the running, Trump is considering four candidates for the post, including Office of Management and Budget director Mick Mulvaney, according to a person familiar with the president’s thinking. Also emerging as a candidate is Rep. Mark Meadows, a North Carolina Republican and the chairman of the House Freedom Caucus.

Comey: FBI probe of Russia initially looked at 4 Americans

By ERIC TUCKER, CHAD DAY and MARY CLARE JALONICK Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The FBI’s counterintelligence investigation into potential ties between the Trump campaign and Russia initially focused on four Americans and whether they were connected to Russian efforts to interfere in the 2016 presidential election, former FBI Director James Comey told lawmakers during hours of closed-door questioning.

Comey did not identify the Americans but said President Donald Trump, then the Republican candidate, was not among them.

He also told the House Judiciary Committee that, contrary to Trump’s claims, he was “not friends in any social sense” with special counsel Robert Mueller, who is now leading the Russia investigation. Trump has repeatedly portrayed the men as exceptionally close as part of a long-running effort to undermine the investigation and paint the lead figures in the probe as united against him.

“I admire the heck out of the man, but I don’t know his phone number, I’ve never been to his house, I don’t know his children’s names,” said Comey, who added that he had “never hugged or kissed the man” despite the president’s insistence otherwise.

“A relief to my wife,” he deadpanned.

The committee released a transcript of the interview on Saturday, just 24 hours after privately grilling the fired FBI chief about investigative decisions related to Hillary Clinton’s email server and Trump’s campaign and potential ties to Russia. Comey largely dodged

Around the World Think tank: Russia emerges as world’s No. 2 arms producer HELSINKI — A Swedish think tank said Monday that Russia has emerged as the world’s second-largest arms producer after the United States. Russia surpassed Britain, which had held that spot since 2002 and remains Western Europe’s No. 1 arms maker.

The Stockholm International Peace Research Institute said in its annual report on the world’s 100 biggest armaments groups that the combined arms sales of Russian companies amounted to $37.7 billion in 2017, an 8.5 percent rise from a year earlier. Russia’s sales accounted for 9.5 percent of a worldwide total of $398.2 billion.

The report includes both domestic and foreign sales around the globe, but doesn’t include Chinese companies because of unreliable statistics, the institute said.

Siemon Wezeman, a senior researcher at the institute, said Russian producers of arms and weapon systems have been on a significant growth path since 2011.

Exit polling indicates Peruvians vote to fight corruption

questions connected to the current Mueller-led probe, including whether his May 2017 firing

by Trump constituted obstruction of justice.

The Republican-led committee interviewed Comey as part of its investigation into FBI actions in 2016, a year when the bureau — in the heat of the presidential campaign — recommended against charges for Clinton and opened an investigation into Russian interference in the election.

The questioning largely centered on well-covered territory from a Justice Department inspector general report, Comey’s own book and interviews and hours of public testimony on Capitol Hill. But the former FBI

chief also used the occasion to take aim at Trump’s frequent barbs at the criminal justice system, saying “we have become numb to lying and attacks on the rule of law by the president,” as well as Trump’s contention that it should be a crime for subjects to “flip” and cooperate with investigators.

“It’s a shocking suggestion coming from any senior official, no less the president. It’s a critical and legitimate part of the entire justice system in the United States,” Comey said.

In offering some details of the investigation’s origins, Comey said it started in July 2016 with a look at “four Americans who had some connection to Mr. Trump” during

that summer and whether they were tied to “the Russian interference effort.” The campaign itself, he said, was not investigation at that time.

He did not identify the Americans, though Mueller’s investigation has made clear that by that time, there had already been outreach from Russian intermediaries to Trump associates — including a 2015 encounter revealed for the first time in a court filing Friday. Also by that time Democratic email accounts had been hacked by Russian intelligence and a Trump campaign foreign policy adviser, George Papadopoulos, had been told that Russians had “dirt” on Clinton in the form of stolen emails.

LIMA, Peru — Peruvian voters agreed to take on corruption Sunday, according to exit polls, as the South American nation struggles to end a scourge that has landed lawmakers, judges and even former presidents behind bars.

Voters overwhelmingly approved three of four questions on a referendum ballot that included measures to prohibit legislators from immediate re-election, create stricter campaign finance rules and reform a scandal-tainted council responsible for selecting judges, according to exit poll results from the firm Ipsos Peru.

Official vote results were not expected before early Monday.

“The referendum does not change everything,” President Martin Vizcarra said. “But it is the beginning of a change that we are looking for in Peru.”

Analysts caution that the referendum isn’t an end-all fix to reverse decades of deeply entrenched political misconduct.

“What this referendum is potentially giving the government and maybe even the political system is a little breathing room — a little burst of confidence and public trust that it can potentially use to get up and running,” said Steve Levitsky, a Harvard University political scientist.

In recent years Peru has been jolted by the Odebrecht corruption scandal that is toppling the careers of some of Latin America’s highest-ranking politicians. The Brazilian construction company has admitted to paying $800 million to officials throughout the region in exchange for lucrative public works contracts.

In Peru, the scandal has tainted the careers of nearly every former living president, with four ex-heads of state under investigation for ties to Odebrecht.

UK leader warns of ‘uncharted waters’ if Brexit deal nixed LONDON — With a crucial parliamentary vote on Brexit looming, British Prime Minister Theresa May warned lawmakers Sunday that they could take Britain into “uncharted waters” and trigger a general election if they reject the divorce deal she struck with the European Union.

May is fighting to save her unpopular Brexit plan and her job ahead of a showdown in Parliament on Tuesday, when lawmakers are widely expected to vote down the deal she negotiated with Brussels. Her Downing Street office insisted that the vote will go ahead despite speculation that the government may be forced to delay it.

A defeat in the vote could

see Britain crashing out of the EU on March 29, the date for Britain’s exit, with no deal in place — an outcome that could spell economic chaos.

In an interview with the Mail on Sunday, May said nixing her deal would “mean grave uncertainty for the nation with a very real risk of no Brexit or leaving the European Union with no deal.”

“When I say if this deal does not pass we would truly be in uncharted waters, I hope people understand this is what I genuinely believe and fear could happen,” she said.

May’s government does not have a majority in the House of Commons, and opposition parties — as well as many of May’s own Conservatives — have already said they will not back the divorce deal that May and EU leaders agreed on last

month.

Pro-Brexit lawmakers say the deal keeps Britain bound too closely to the EU, while pro-EU politicians say it erects barriers between the U.K. and its biggest trading partner and leaves many details of the future relationship undecided.

The main sticking point is a “backstop” provision in the Brexit agreement that aims to guarantee an open border between EU member Ireland and the U.K.’s Northern Ireland post-Brexit.

The temporary measure would keep Britain under EU customs rules, and is supposed to last until superseded by permanent new trade arrangements. But critics say it could leave Britain tied to the EU indefinitely, unable to strike new trade deals around the world.

Nobel peace winners demand action against sex abuse

By DAVID KEYTON Associated Press

OSLO, Norway — One of the winners of this year’s Nobel Peace Prize says the attention the prize has drawn to sexual violence against women in war zones must be followed by action against the abuses.

Dr. Denis Mukwege spoke Sunday at a news conference with Nadia Murad of Iraq, with whom he shared the $1 million prize. Mukwege was honored for his work helping sexually abused women at the hospital he founded in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Murad, a Yazidi, won for her advocacy for sex abuse victims after being kidnapped by Islamic State militants.

“What we see during armed conflicts is that women’s bodies become battlefields and this cannot be acceptable during our time,” Mukwege said,

speaking through a translator.

“We cannot only denounce it, we now need to act.”

Murad, 25, was one of an estimated 3,000 girls and women from Iraq’s Yazidi minority group who were kidnapped in 2014 by IS militants and sold into sexual slavery. She was raped, beaten and tortured before managing to escape three months later. After getting treatment in Germany, she chose to speak to the world about the horrors faced by Yazidi women, despite regardless of the heavy stigma in her culture surrounding rape.

She said Sunday it was difficult “for a girl, a woman, to rise up to say that these atrocities have happened.”

Mukwege, a 63-year-old surgeon, founded a hospital in the city of Bukavu and over the past 20 years has treated countless women who were raped amid fighting between armed

groups seeking to control of some the central African nation’s vast mineral wealth.

He expressed concern Sunday that new violence could be coming as Congo holds a general election this month.

“We think the conflict might blow up around this electoral period and women and children are always the first victims of such conflicts,” he said.

Along with preventing sexual violence, more effort is needed to attend to victims, Mukwege said.

“We need to realize that any woman who is a victim of sexual violence within her own country — such women should be allowed treatment and it’s not only medical treatment, also psychological treatment, judicial treatment,” he said.

Murad said the psychological burden of her ordeal and her subsequent work is heavy.

waits for no one.

P eninsula C ollege A round C ampus is a good deal!

Although the JumpStart program has been in place since the early 1990s, many parents and high school students (including home-school students) don’t fully understand the ins and outs and advantages of participation for juniors and seniors.

JumpStart, thanks to the people of the Kenai Peninsula Borough, pays about 67 percent of regular tuition for classes at the college, and high school students (must be Kenai Peninsula residents) can receive dual high school and college credit for specific classes.

Students need to interact with their high school counselor to determine which classes are eligible for dual credit. The JumpStart tuition rate applies only to courses originating at KPC; it cannot be applied to courses taken at other UA campuses.

It is important for students and parents to understand that to be successful in JumpStart classes, students should be both academically and socially prepared for the challenges

they may face. If a student is not successful in a course, there are downstream implications that could affect future federal financial aid for college.

JumpStart students must complete placement tests in both English and math, submit all required paperwork and obtain all required signatures, and pay all tuition and fees by the end of the second week of classes. Spring semester begins Jan. 14, 2019.

For more information, call KRC Student Services at 2620330 or Counseling and Advising at 262-0383 or email iyinfo@alaska.edu.

Looking for a great winter diversion?

Not everyone is looking for another English, math or science course at KPC. Some lifelong learners are looking for classes where they can learn a new hobby or get in better shape. The Kenai River Campus will be offering a variety of spring semester classes that fall into this category.

This spring, learning to fly fish, playing finger-style guitar, making a modern qaspeq, practicing yoga and Pilates, are all possibilities. Details for these classes can be found at www.kpc.alaska.edu/academics/schedule/.

Dolphins shock Patriots on miracle play

By The Associated Press

Eds: Updates. Should stanbd. With AP Photos.

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — Kenyan Drake ran the last 52 yards as the Miami Dolphins scored on a pass and double lateral on the wild 69-yard final play Sunday to beat the New England Patriots 34-33.

It was the longest touchdown to win a game with no time remaining since the 1970 merger.

The Patriots were 16 seconds from clinching their 10th consecutive AFC East title when the Dolphins pulled off their stunner. Ryan Tannehill threw a 14-yard pass to Kenny Stills, who lateraled to DeVante Parker, who quickly lateraled to Drake . He found a seam and beat two Patriots to the corner of the end zone — defensive back J.C. Jackson and tight end Rob Gronkowski, who was on the field as part of New England’s prevent defense.

The Dolphins’ bench emptied as teammates mobbed Drake. Coach Adam Gase said his team had been practicing the play all year for such a situ-

ation.

“Those guys executed it as well as you could,” Gase said.

“When you practice it, you don’t really know how it’s going to turn out. Kenyan realized he had a lane and took it.”

Tom Brady threw for 358 yards and three scores, but the stunned Patriots (9-4) lost in Miami for the fifth time in their past six visits. The Dolphins (76) came from behind five times to help their slim wild-card chances.

CHIEFS 27, RAVENS 24, OT KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Harrison Butker atoned for a 43-yard miss as time expired with a 36yard field goal in overtime, and the Chiefs stopped the Ravens on fourth down to clinch a playoff spot.

The Chiefs (10-2) twice converted on fourth down before Patrick Mahomes threw a tying touchdown pass to Damien Williams with 53 seconds left. Moments later, Justin Houston strip-sacked Lamar Jackson to give Butker a chance to win the game for Kansas City in regulation.

He missed that one. He didn’t miss his second chance.

Bucks’ Brogdon keys victory over Toronto

By The Associated Press

TORONTO — Malcolm Brogdon hit tying and goahead 3-pointers in the final 67 seconds and the Milwaukee Bucks held on to beat the Toronto Raptors 104-99 on Sunday night.

Brogdon scored 18 points, Giannis Antetokounmpo had 19 points and matched a season high with 19 rebounds, and Brook Lopez had 19 points for the Bucks, the first team to beat Toronto twice this season.

Serge Ibaka scored 22 points and Kawhi Leonard had 20 for the Raptors, who have lost two straight, the second time this season they’ve suffered consecutive defeats. Toronto, which lost 106-105 at Brooklyn on Friday, dropped three straight from Nov. 12 to 16, losing at home to New Orleans and Detroit before an overtime defeat at Boston.

dle added 28 as New Orleans dealt Detroit its fourth straight loss.

Pelicans star Anthony Davis left with a right hip injury after a first-quarter collision with Blake Griffin. Davis returned early in the third quarter, but finished with only six points — three before the injury. He also had five blocks and nine rebounds.

SPURS 110, JAZZ 97 SAN ANTONIO (AP) — DeMar DeRozan had 26 points and eight rebounds and Rudy Gay added 23 points and 15 rebounds as San Antonio won its second straight after dropping four of five.

LaMarcus Aldridge scored 20 points for the Spurs.

HORNETS 119, KNICKS 107

NEW YORK — Kemba Walker scored 25 points and Jeremy Lamb added 19 to lead Charlotte past New York.

Tony Parker scored 16 points, Marvin Williams had 13 PELICANS 116, and Cody Zeller finished with PISTONS 108 12 as Charlotte led by as many DETROIT — Jrue Holiday as 28 points in a game it never scored 37 points and Julius Ran- trailed.

No. 7 Tennessee nips No. 1 Zags

By The Associated Press

PHOENIX — Admiral Schofield hit a 3-pointer with 24 seconds left and scored 25 of his 30 points in the second half, helping No. 7 Tennessee knock off top-ranked Gonzaga 76-73 in the Colangelo Classic on Sunday.

Tennessee (7-1) jumped on Gonzaga early and fought back from a nine-point, second-half deficit.

NO. 4 VIRGINIA 57, VCU 49 CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. — Kyle Guy scored 13 of his 15 points in the first half, and Ty Jerome had 11 of his 14 in the second for Virginia.

Guy , while Jerome put up 11 of his 14 after the break.

NO. 6 NEVADA 74, GRAND CANYON 66 PHOENIX — Jordan Carolina had 22 points and 14 rebounds, and Nevada used a late run to finally shake Grand Canyon in the Colangelo Classic.

Nevada (10-0) had a short turnaround after playing No. 20 Arizona State late Friday night and found itself in what felt like a home environment for Grand Canyon.

NO. 15 VIRGINIA TECH 81, SOUTH CAROLINA ST. 44 BLACKSBURG, Va. — Nickeil Alexander-Walker scored 19 points to lead Virginia Tech.

Alexander-Walker hit 8 of 11 shots, including three 3-pointers for the Hokies (8-1). Damani Applewhite led South Carolina State (2-9) with 10 points.

Shiffrin wins again ST. MORITZ, Switzerland (AP) — Mikaela Shiffrin won a World Cup event for the third time in eight days, beating Petra Vlhova in the head-to-head final of parallel slalom on Sunday.

Shiffrin trailed midway down the course after clipping a gate, but led her Slovakian opponent through the final three gates to win by 0.11 seconds.

The American star’s 48th career World Cup win — fourth on the women’s all-time list — was

her third straight after back-toback victories in the super-G speed discipline Saturday at St. Moritz and last Sunday at Lake Louise, Canada.

“I’m not unbeatable, no,” Shiffrin told Swiss broadcaster RTS after the race. “I was so excited after (Saturday’s win) it was a bit of a challenge to refocus.”

Still, Shiffrin does look unbeatable if she stays injury-free chasing a third straight seasonlong overall title.

The Ravens (7-6) marched across midfield as they tried to answer in overtime, but Ronnie Stanley’s holding penalty put them in a bind. Jackson was sacked by Houston and Dee Ford — and wound up leaving the game — and Robert Griffin III threw two incompletions to end it.

SAINTS 28, BUCCANEERS 14 TAMPA, Fla. — Drew Brees threw for one touchdown and ran another to help the Saints rally from an 11-point halftime deficit to clinch their second straight NFC South title.

Brees shrugged off a pair of turnovers to throw a 1-yard TD pass to Zach Line, then scored on a 1-yard sneak as the Saints (11-2) avenged a season-opening loss to the Bucs (5-8) and also rebounded from a defeat last week at Dallas.

BEARS 15, RAMS 6 CHICAGO — Eddie Goldman led a dominant defensive effort, and Chicago shut down Jared Goff and Los Angeles’ high-powered offense.

Today in History Today is Monday, Dec. 10, the 344th day of 2018. There are 21 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Dec. 10, 1964, Martin Luther King Jr. received his Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo, saying he accepted it “with an abiding faith in America and an audacious faith in the future of mankind.”

On this date: In 1817, Mississippi was admitted as the 20th state of the Union.

In 1869, women were granted the right to vote in the Wyoming Territory.

In 1898, a treaty was signed in Paris officially ending the SpanishAmerican War. In 1906, President Theodore Roosevelt became the first American to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for helping to mediate an end to the Russo-Japanese War. In 1931, Jane Addams became the first American woman to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize; the co-recipient was Nicholas Murray Butler.

In 1967, singer Otis Redding, 26, and six others were killed when their plane crashed into Wisconsin’s Lake Monona; one passenger, Ben Cauley, survived.

In 1987, President Ronald Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail S. Gorbachev concluded three days of summit talks in Washington. Violinist Jascha Heifetz died in Los Angeles at age 86.

In 1994, Yasser Arafat, Shimon Peres and Yitzhak Rabin received the Nobel Peace Prize, pledging to pursue their mission of healing the anguished Middle East.

In 1995, the first group of U-S Marines arrived in the Bosnian capital of Sarajevo to join NATO soldiers sent to enforce peace in former Yugoslavia.

In 1996, South African President Nelson Mandela signed the country’s new constitution into law during a ceremony in Sharpeville.

In 2005, former Senator Eugene McCarthy died in Washington, D.C., at age 89; actor-comedian Richard Pryor died in Encino, California, at age 65.

In 2007, suspended NFL star Michael Vick was sentenced by a federal judge in Richmond, Virginia, to 23 months in prison for bankrolling a dogfighting operation and killing dogs that underperformed (Vick served 19 months at Leavenworth). Former Vice President Al Gore accepted the Nobel Peace Prize with a call for humanity to rise up against a looming climate crisis and stop waging war on the environment.

Ten years ago: Defying calls for his resignation, Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich (blah-GOY’-uh-vich) showed up for work on his 52nd birthday despite charges he’d schemed to enrich himself by offering to sell President-elect Barack Obama’s Senate seat. The House approved a plan, 237-170, to speed $14 billion in loans to Detroit’s automakers. U.S. Special Forces killed six Afghan police in a case of mistaken identity by both sides after the police fired on the Americans during an operation against an insurgent commander.

Five years ago: South Africa held a memorial service for Nelson Mandela, during which U.S. President Barack Obama energized tens of thousands of spectators and nearly 100 visiting heads of state with a plea for the world to emulate “the last great liberator of the 20th century.” (The ceremony was marred by the presence of a sign-language interpreter who deaf advocates said was an impostor waving his arms around meaninglessly.) General Motors named product chief Mary Barra its new CEO, making her the first woman to run a U.S. car company.

One year ago: Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz suffered a torn ACL during the team’s win over the Rams; backup Nick Foles rallied the Eagles to a victory that secured the NFC East title.

(Foles and the Eagles would go on to win the Super Bowl.) Wearing a face mask, actor Rob Lowe live-streamed the evacuation of his family from one of the homes threatened by a massive Southern California wildfire.

Crossword

Wife resists giving support to man’s new career plan in your field, and it isn’t surprising you can’t find a comparable job in IT when the preference appears to be for hiring younger, cheaper workers.

Frankly, you are fortunate to have both an alternative and the initiative to start a handyman business.

Good handymen are hard to find, and your wife should Abigail Van Buren make the effort to support you in what could be a successful endeavor once it gets on its feet. That’s what partners in life are supposed to do, isn’t it?

DEAR ABBY: My boyfriend and I have been together for a couple of years. He has three siblings, all in their 20s, none married.

Today I received a group email from his mom addressed to him, his father, his grandmother, all three siblings and their boyfriends/girlfriends (including me) asking for Christmas wish lists. She wants to know what we would like for Christmas and would like all of us to “reply all” on the email so everyone

else will have ideas for Christmas presents.

I don’t know how to respond! I don’t want to appear greedy, but I do like the idea that she wants to get us all presents that we will like. Can you give me any suggestions on the best way to respond?

-- PERPLEXED IN ALABAMA DEAR PERPLEXED: Your boyfriend’s mother is a generous -- and sensible -- woman. She is soliciting ideas because she doesn’t want to waste her time or money buying something the recipient won’t like. Answer her question. Tell her what you would like, as long as it isn’t something that will break the bank. Your boyfriend can probably give you some hints about her budget. I suggest you talk to him about it.

Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Contact Dear Abby at www.

DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

To order “How to Write Letters for All Occasions,” send your name and mailing address, plus check or money order for $7 (U.S. funds) to: Dear Abby -- Letter Booklet, P.O. Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 610540447. Shipping and handling are included in the price.

Hints from Heloise

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Monday, Dec. 10, 2018: This year you open up to many new ideas. When dealing with finances, you feel comfortable with tried-andtrue thinking. If you are single, you alternate between a need for stability and a desire for freedom. Unless you are willing to accept someone who connects better with one side of you, you will find that making a match is challenging. If you are attached, your sweetie will find you interesting and quirky. Expand your life to involve your partner more frequently. AQUARIUS can talk you into nearly anything, The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH You express your ideas with clarity and power. Others respond accordingly. If one of these ideas takes off, you will need to take the lead. By the afternoon, you might have mixed feelings about committing to any additional responsibilities. Tonight: Make time for a special friend.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH Your gift of being able to look at the big picture marks your work and your relationships. As of late, you clearly want to go off on your own. After a morning of excellent communication and research, you decide to surrender to this urge. Tonight: Have a good time wherever you are.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Your serious mode is impressive. Those around you have confidence in you and your followthrough. You do best in one-on-one conversations. Later in the day, kick back and review a certain decision.

Rubes

You will see an alternate path. Tonight: You are capable of nearly anything.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH Your energy might be focused on someone else right now.

In the near future, you’ll want to shift your focus to your own needs and to what must be done. Get as many of your gifts in the mail as you possibly can. Tonight: Let a close friend know what is on your mind.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH You will be on top of your game for the next few days. Right now, you need as much rest as possible. Greet some quiet moments as great times to write out cards or do whatever knocks your socks off. Remain more sensitive to alternatives than you have been. Tonight: Lie low.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH You’ll want to be more involved in a group project. You seem to have been holding in your anger for a while. As a result, you easily could be triggered. At a certain point, you can’t exercise away hostility or dismiss hurt feelings. Tonight: Where the crowds are.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Be willing to take a stand, but make it OK for someone else to take center stage. You have a lot on your plate, especially with a situation that surrounds a child. Stay centered on your long-term goals, even if you don’t feel as if they are possible right now. Tonight: Till the wee hours.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH Keep reaching out for more of what you want. Detach from immediate problems and see if you can handle them with a different approach. Try to imagine what it would

By Leigh Rubin

Ziggy

be like to be the other parties in the situation; you will be more accepting as a result. Tonight: Follow the music.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH You ask for what you want, and you are likely to get just that. You might be too focused on a certain outcome and inadvertently keep pushing.

Finances are involved. Do not get uptight or resistant. Continue looking for a solution. Tonight: Get together with a fun friend.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Honor a decision you made a while ago. You tend to acknowledge your choices, but rarely seem to honor them. Reach out to someone who is instrumental to your personal life.

You might want to buy this person a card or a token of affection. Tonight: Head home early.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH You could be on top of your game, and you’ll use that energy for both work and fun. Communication is instrumental and could crack open a door for you to get a glimpse of how someone you care about views life.

Tonight: The only sin you can commit is to be alone.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Focus on your goals. Because of a meeting or a discussion with several friends, you could be tempted to head in a different direction. Your sense of limitation sometimes holds you back. Do not allow that to happen today. Join a friend on a fun adventure. Tonight: Get a good night’s sleep.

BORN TODAY Poet Emily Dickinson (1830), mathematician Ada Lovelace (1815), composer Olivier Messiaen (1908)

Careless driving `Dear Readers: Today’s SOUND OFF is about irresponsible drivers on our roads.

-- Heloise “Dear Heloise: We all have turn signals with our cars, so why is it some people don’t turn theirs on when they decide to make a turn, or turn it on just as they are about to turn? I realize driving is an “overlearned” experience, but a stop sign means ‘stop,’ not ‘slowly roll past the sign.’ Now, with the roads becoming icy in many states, it’s more important than ever to drive with care. With the holidays comes drinking, and the police are cracking down on drunken drivers. A DUI can kill your chances of getting a good job or a promotion, and it might land you in jail.

“Please remember: It’s not just a vehicle for transportation; it’s thousands of pounds of steel and rubber. Drive with caution.”

-- Elizabeth W., Norwood, Ohio FAST FACTS Dear Readers: Here are some supermarket hints: * Make a list of needed items and stick to it. * Buy often-used items in bulk, if you have the storage. * Don’t shop for grocery items when you’re hungry. * Organize your coupons and keep them in a separate envelope/or compartment in your purse or wallet.

-- Heloise LIMP CURLS Dear Heloise: My baby-fine hair is always “droopy.” I’d use a curling iron, but the volume and curl would just seem to slide out halfway through the morning. Then a hairdresser told me to first bend forward when drying my hair with a hair dryer, and get the roots dry while my hair is dangling toward the floor. Next, I use a very light blast of hair spray where I plan to curl my hair and use the curling iron after the hair spray dries. No more limp hair.

-- Karen B., Fairmont, W.Va.

Sudoku is a number-placing puzzle based on a 9x9 grid with several given numbers.

The object is to place the numbers 1 to 9 in the empty squares so that each row, each column and each 3x3 box contains the same number only once. The difficulty level of the Conceptis Sudoku increases from Monday to Friday.

DEAR ABBY: I am an older IT professional (58) who had a very successful career until a year ago. I was part of a major layoff at the company I worked at for many years. I have not been able to find a job in the IT field since.

Besides my skills and knowledge in IT, I’m an accomplished handyman with skills in most of the trades.

The issue is, my wife is insistent that I get another job in IT -- mostly for the benefits.

Older IT workers have a very hard time finding work in the field. I’d like to start a handyman company since I enjoy this kind of work. If I start a handyman business, my wife, for the first time, would have to go from being a part-time worker at her job to full time to provide us with benefits. This will cause a lot of strain on our marriage because she has made it clear she does not want to work full time.

I think she’s being selfish. I have provided her with a very nice lifestyle for many years and feel it’s time she step up and do her part. I’m not sure how to broach the subject without an argument ensuing. Help?

-- SWITCHING GEARS IN NEW YORK DEAR SWITCHING: Expect an argument and be prepared for it. You are not responsible for having been laid off. It seems there is plenty of ageism

The installers did an amazing job replacing my three bedroom windows.

It was set up as a two-day job, but they were able to get it done in one.

They worked through the rain and snow and made sure my house was spotless when they were done. Thank you for such a great job!
