Dunleavy sworn in as governor Peninsula By BECKY BOHRER Associated Press
JUNEAU — Alaska Gov. Mike Dunleavy was sworn into office Monday, taking his oath in a school gym in the western Alaska city of Kotzebue after poor weather forced a change in plans the morning of the ceremony. Dunleavy, a former teacher and school administrator who lived for years in Kotzebue, praised those who pulled together the “fantastic” ceremony on short notice. In rural Alaska, he said, “you make things work.” Dunleavy had planned to be sworn in in the tiny Inupiat Eskimo community of Noorvik, which he said was chosen because it’s his wife Rose’s hometown and the two have fond memories of the years they spent living in rural Alaska. He even initially planned to fly into Kotzebue and make a Mike Dunleavy, left, is sworn into office as Alaska’s governor by Superior Court Judge Paul 65-mile trek by snowmobile to Roetman in Kotzebue on Monday.

reports minimal quake damage By VICTORIA PETERSEN Peninsula Clarion
The Kenai Peninsula sustained minor damage and no life-threatening injuries after Friday’s 7.0 magnitude earthquake. In a statement released Monday, Kenai Peninsula Borough Mayor Charlie Pierce said the peninsula experienced damage to roads, especially in Nikiski along the Kenai Spur Highway. Some borough buildings and schools had minimal damage, but most of the immediate issues were resolved on Friday, See QUAKE, page A3
NYSE, Nasdaq to close Wednesday to honor Bush NEW YORK — Major U.S. stock markets will close Wednesday in honor of former President George H.W. Bush, who died Friday at 94. The New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq said over the weekend that they will close trading Wednesday in observance of a national day of mourning for Bush. The federal government will also be closed. The NYSE also said it will display the U.S. flag that flies above the New York Stock Exchange at half-staff in honor of the former president. U.S. traders also observed a moment of silence before markets opened on Monday in honor of Bush. The last time U.S. markets closed outside of a holiday was on two consecutive days in late October 2012 because of Hurricane Sandy. The last closure due to the death of a U.S. president was Jan. 2, 2007, when the markets observed a national day of mourning for President Gerald R. Ford. — Associated Press

Homer man releases Kenai River aerial photography book By JEFF HELMINIAK Peninsula Clarion
From a Homer man’s passion for flying comes a book for those passionate about the Kenai River. Last weekend, Ian Reid of Eagle Eye Gallery in Homer
released “The Kenai River: An Aerial Perspective.” The 110-page book has extensive aerial shots of the Kenai River, starting with its exit from Kenai Lake and ending with the river’s mouth teeming with dipnetters. While Reid said he under-
stands why people are so passionate about the Kenai River, he does not hide the fact that this book does not come from that same passion. “I’m inspired that people are challenged to get out there and enjoy the wilderness and nature through fishing, hiking and
hunting,” Reid said. “Those are healthy things. “But for me, it’s a means to generate income from flying. How do we justify our hobbies? We’re always trying to find a way to do that.” Reid came to the United States from New Zealand in
1977. He married Linda Reid, who is originally from California. While working at a Texas ranch from 1992 through 1994, he did photography and game counting from a helicopter and became hooked on flying. But how to pay for it? Reid See PHOTOG, page A3
Celebrating Hanukkah with latkes Habits change month after plastic bag ban By VICTORIA PETERSEN Peninsula Clarion
Hanukkah, which began Sunday, is an eight-day event celebrating the rededication of the Second Temple in Jerusalem during the second century B.C., when the Maccabees claimed victory over the Syrian army. Jewish congregations across the world light candles, exchange gifts and played dreidel, which is a four-sided spinning top game, to celebrate Sunday night. An important tradition of the holiday is eating fried food, which pays homage to the day’s worth of oil that miraculously See LATKES, page A2

A month after banning singleuse plastic bags in Soldotna, consumers and retailers throughout the community have adjusted to the change. “In my personal interactions with people, trying to gauge the reaction when I’m out and about, I haven’t sensed that anyone was in crisis or having a tough time figuring it out,” said Soldotna City Manager Stephanie Queen. “It’s going okay. We’ll continue to be flexible, keep track of ques-
tions and address them as they come up.” Under the ordinance, stores may offer paper bags for free or for an additional price at the discretion of the business. Not all plastic bags are banned, though. Bags used to purchase bulk or produce items, contain dampness or leaks, like with frozen foods or flowers, or used to protect prepared and baked goods are still allowed. Also newspaper, laundry, dry cleaning bags and garbage bags are still allowed. See BAG, page A2

kept the menorah of the Jewish Maccabees lit for eight days inside the rededicated temple. On the central peninsula, the Briat Elohim congregation gathered at the home of members Carma and Dylan Shay, where the group sang songs, lit the first two candles of their menorahs and had a potluck-style dinner featuring kugel, a Jewish noodle dish, hummus, salads, stews and most importantly latkes. Latkes, a fried potato pancake, were the star of the show. Nikiski resident Gary Superman was a founding member of the congregation in the early

Queen said that several restaurants expressed concerns about their take-out containers. “They were trying to see if some plastics were still allowed in certain instances where food can spill and drip,” Queen said. “But I know a lot of restaurants are just going to stick with paper bags.” In the days leading up to the
ban’s enactment, the city handed out reusable plastic bags at key locations such as Safeway and Fred Meyer. “I’ve seen a lot of the reusable bags around town, which makes me glad that they got into people’s hands. We were really glad the stores were helping with that,” Queen said. “I’ve seen more people carrying their own bags.
I think people are changing their behavior and working it out.” Soldotna is joining several Alaskan communities in banning single-use plastic bags, including Wasilla, Palmer, Cordova and Bethel. Seward recently passed legislation to ban plastic bags and Homer will place the bag ban question on the ballot in Oct. 2019.
1980s and always made the Hanukkah latkes. After Superman died in November of 2016, his daughter Sarah Superman, took over her father’s job of providing latkes for the congregation’s annual holiday. Luckily, after years of watching and helping her father through the latke process, Sarah Superman is keeping the tradition alive and making it her own. The process, which Sarah Superman said takes about four hours, is repetitive. First, you have to peel the potatoes and onions, shred them, rinse them, and then shred and rinse them again, before preparing them to be fried in olive oil. She said she made them Friday and froze them until they were ready for Sunday. Sarah
Superman is vegan, so her recipe isn’t the same one her father used. “I don’t use the eggs,” Sarah Superman said. “I used flaxseed eggs I make. They are a little different than my dad’s, but I do use the same amount of potatoes and onions though.” She said she makes the flaxseed eggs by combining flax and water, which creates a gelatinous mixture that has the same binding effect as eggs. She said latkes and the donuts her mom makes for their own Hanukkah celebration are among her favorite holiday foods. Other guests at the party agreed. Members said they were grateful for Sarah Superman’s effort when it came to latke making. “They are delicious,” member Margaret Shallot said. “My latke
process is not as intense.” One member of the group even admitted to making latkes using a store-bought box mixture. The group was also divided on whether sour cream or applesauce was the best condiment to go with the potato pancake. Sarah Superman said she was team applesauce. Shallot said she liked to make an Alaska berry sauce to top her latkes. For Sarah Superman, the once-a-year opportunity to make latkes for her congregation brings her back to time spent with her father. “It’s the smell,” she said. “It’s nostalgic and brings back all those memories of my dad. I love my dad and I keep making them for him.”
The judge who swore Dunleavy in was on the plane with him, and Kevin Meyer, who was sworn in as lieutenant governor, was already in Kotzebue. Visibility began to improve late Monday morning amid lingering snow, meteorologist Jim Brader said. Dunleavy arrived in Noorvik later in the day for a community celebration. It is unusual, but not unprecedented, for an Alaska governor to be sworn in outside the capital city of Juneau, though Dunleavy’s ceremony was the first to take place above the Arctic Circle. In 2015, then-President Barack Obama visited Kotzebue to highlight climate change. Dunleavy said the ceremony could have taken place anywhere, and he knew weather this time of year could pose a risk in traveling. But he said he wanted to come. Rural Alaska “has a special place
in our heart,” he said. Under the state constitution, a governor’s term begins at noon on the first Monday in December. Dunleavy was sworn in around 11:40 a.m. Mark Jenkins, principal of Kotzebue Middle High School, the grade 6-12 school where the event was held, said it was a true team effort, with district staff and students among those who chipped in. As word of the event spread, people started coming to the school and officials weren’t sure how much space would be needed so they limited the students who could come to the roughly 175 in the high school. In the end, there was enough room, he said. He said the school is used to hosting events and joked about how things came together. “Hey, we had 90 minutes. Come on. We could have done it in 60,” he said. Dunleavy, a Republican for-
mer state senator, won office by defeating Democratic former U.S. Sen. Mark Begich in November. The incumbent, Gov. Bill Walker dropped his re-election bid in October, days after then-Lt. Gov. Byron Mallott resigned over what Walker described as an inappropriate overture to a woman. Walker, an independent, said he could not win a three-way race and offered qualified support for Begich. Dunleavy has said that he was in close contact with Walker about the response to the earthquake. Walker has said he did not expect the recovery to be affected by the transition in administrations. Walker and Lt. Gov. Valerie Davidson declined to attend the swearing in, to focus instead on helping reopen state facilities after the quake. Walker said he wished Dunleavy well.

But plans began to fall apart after a magnitude 7.0 earthquake struck Anchorage on Friday, causing widespread damage to roadways in Alaska’s largest city and surrounding areas. Dunleavy canceled the snowmobile trip and abbreviated his travel plans so he could focus on earthquake relief efforts, said Sarah Erkmann Ward, a spokeswoman for the transition team. He instead intended to fly straight to Noorvik on Monday from Anchorage on a chartered flight. Plans changed again when poor visibility at the small airport in Noorvik prompted Dunleavy’s plane to be diverted to Kotzebue, where supporters, unable to fly into Noorvik, were gathered, Ward said.

Ray Frank Murphy
August 27, 1931 - December 4, 2017 In memory of Ray Frank Murphy, who passed away a year ago today, on Decemeber 4th, 2017 in Anchorage, AK. He went peacefully in his sleep with his family nearby and his dogs, Sparky and Chaz, by his side. He was born to John E. and Rachael Murphy on August 27, 1931 in Tacoma, WA. He was the youngest of three children and loved his family very much, often recounting heart felt stories of his mother, whom he loved beyond words. He joined the Army in 1949 and was stationed at Wildwood in Kenai, AK. He was proud of his service to his country. While in the military, still in Kenai, he met, fell in love and married Rika Mann. They resided in North Kenai for many years where they built a life together raising children and enjoying grandchildren and great-grandchildren. After his honorable discharge, he was hired with the oil platform in Kenai where he worked hard and became a foreman training several others on the oil rigs. He retired from Amaco in the early 1980’s. He was a carpenter as well, and had a passion for building which enabled him to construct a home for Rika and himself on K-Beach Rd. in Kenai. Along with a “home away from home” in Chinitna Bay. He was a self-taught pilot and would fly there, as they loved to spend time in the bay, fishing, clam digging, moose hunting and spending summers with numerous family and friends. In 1990 he was devastated when his love, Rika, passed away. He remained in Kenai for the next few years, occasionally visiting Anchorage, where he met Patti Whitesell. The two hit it off and were inseparable, deciding to spend the rest of their lives together. They traveled to Florida in the winters and back to Alaska in the summers. They loved to travel, with their doggie companions, in their motorhome, visiting family and friends. He was happy building a life with Patty and her children. He continued his love of construction, remodeling their homes and teaching his trade to the children. Ray loved the Lord and regularly attended church until his health no longer permitted it and even then he would watch worship services on his television. His sister, Barbara remembers her brother being the youngest and therefore referring to him as “her baby”. She also remembers buying him his first car which he so desperately wanted. Some of his grandchildren will never forget him building an addition onto the North Kenai home and before he completed it letting it be their “own playhouse.” Other grandchildren remember wanting some of what Grandpa called his “candy” from his “Redman” bag and when he finally let them have a taste...well that cured that want! However all of the grandchildren remember Grandpa’s homemade waffles and what a treat it was when they were able to spend the night with Grandpa and Grammy and wake up to the special waffle breakfast. The past few years of his life he had many wonderful providers who cared for him and who he loved to share his stories with. Our family would like to thank each and every one of you! Ray is survived by sister, Barbara Harbert of Yuma, AZ; daughters, Virginia Hunter of Kenai, AK; Hazel Felton of Anchorage, AK; Debbie Floyd of Homosassa, FL; Tara Whitesell (Crystal Hartman) of Anchorage, AK; son Chuck Whitesell and grandchildren; George Hunter, Rika Blumhorst, Doris Hunter, Neil Hunter, Bernadine Atchison, Cathleen (Cookie) Pinkerton, Elizabeth (Libby)Atchison, Todd Smagge, Loren Smagge, Jimmy Smagge, Suzanne Jackson, Linsey Fox, Brenton Stanley, Danny Hartman, Jordan Hartman; many great-grandchildren, great-great grandchildren, nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents, John and Rachael Murphy; brother, George Murphy; his wife of 36 years, Rika Murphy; sons, George Hunter, Ralph Hunter and Gene Smagge; daughters, Laura Jean Carpenter and Mary Ellen (M.E.) Perrizo; grandchildren Tina Shelby, Doreen Harmon, Danielle Carpenter and Chrissy Hunter and his loving companion of 23 years Patti Whitesell; A Celebration and Memory of Life will be held next year in Kenai to spread his ashes and place him to rest in all of his favorite places. Arrangements were completed by The Cremation Society of Alaska.

settled on aerial photography. “I had to start getting interested in it as soon as I realized I wanted to fly,” Reid said of photography. “We had six kids and I couldn’t afford an expensive hobby.” Reid started learning to fly a helicopter in 1996 while living in New York state and immediately started an aerial photography business. “The East Coast is just phenomenal during fall season,” he said. “To see it from the air was quite compelling. “I wanted to develop a business that would allow me to do more of that.” In 2000, the family headed north to Eagle River with three vehicles and two trailers, one hauling a helicopter. “We were debating moving back to New Zealand or staying in the U.S., so we compromised and moved to Alaska,” Reid said. Reid’s father had been a commercial fisherman. So it took just three years for the family to move to Homer. “After shooting the peninsula initially in 2001 it just became apparent, seeing Homer on a good day, that this would be a nice place to move the family to,” he said.
He has been earning his living flying and taking photographs ever since. “People are intrigued how that is possible,” said a chuckling Reid, who also has expanded into flight instruction in the past two years. Reid said customers will commission photographs, or he will shoot something interesting and see if he can find a buyer. Over 18 years, he has accumulated 100,000 aerial photos of the peninsula. People would always ask him for a collection of photos on, say, the Kenai River, but until technological advancements in the last few years, Reid had no way of delivering that collection. On-demand printing, technology that made book layout easier, and ebooks changed the equation. On-demand printing means that a book is not printed until it is purchased. Though the Kenai River book was “released” at the Kenai Fine Arts Guild Arts and Craft Fair, Reid said that as of the middle of last week, there were only three or four books actually in print — one of those, of course, having been purchased by his daughter. “Until I can justify a print run from what interest there is for the book, I’m reluctant to commit to that financially,” he said. “For now, it’s going to be a collector’s edition, meaning

it’s going to be a limited edition unless we go to a print run.” The down side is on-demand printing is more expensive. The list price for the book is $159.99, while the ebook is $39.99. Another advantage, though, is on-demand printing allows Reid to get more books out quickly. If the Kenai River book goes well, he said he’d like to release two more books by this summer — one on the areas around Kachemak Bay and one on various communities and features around the Kenai Peninsula. This is all just a way of making more money from aerial photography. “There’s a few different pieces to the puzzle,” Reid said. “I’m hoping that this is one of them, where we can offer a collection as opposed to just an image.” Reid’s passion for flying shows he is obviously transfixed with how the earth’s features look from the air. For that reason, he doesn’t dress up the Kenai River book with a narrative. He lets the photos of the 82 river miles speak for themselves. “If a picture is worth a thousand words, we probably have a million words in there,” he said. From the photos, a narrative does emerge, from the turquoise beauty of the upper river shot during fall, to the fishermen at places like Bing’s Landing and the Russian River, to the upper and lower Killey River and Moose River dumping muddy water into the river, to the charred remains of a forest fire stopping just short of homes on the Kenai Keys, to the river flowing through the cities of Sterling, Kenai and Soldotna, to commercial fishing boats staged near the
mouth, to dipnetters on the shore and in boats flocking to that same mouth. “Everybody has a different interest in the river, and they overlap somewhat contentiously at times,” Reid said. “Activity from one end of the river to the other is just so drastically different.” With the exceptions of the mountains surrounding the upper river, the land around the Kenai River is very flat. Reid said this allows aerial photography to give a perspective otherwise not possible. “Even for the locals to get their head around where the river is and which way it is going, is challenging,” he said. “I think people find an aerial perspective helpful to explain to others where they are, where they’ve been or where they’re going.” Although the cover was shot in 2002 by Reid’s son, Lin, all of the other images are from 2016 and later. Reid has no idea how long he spent on the photography. “If I think about that hard enough, it doesn’t become very financially feasible to continue,” he said. Reid said that the investment in time and dollars is the reason something that seems to make so much sense — a comprehensive aerial photography book on the Kenai River — has never been done until now. The book can be accessed by going to blurb.com and searching for “The Kenai River.” There is a preview of the book on blurb.com and at eagleeyegallery.com. Reid said those interested in the book can contact him at 907-299-7765 and order from him. Also, the book will be sold at Trustworthy Hardware in Soldotna within the next few weeks.

Pierce said in his statement. “This week we will continue structural evaluations to be sure that none of the buildings have any further issues to be sure and keep our students and residents safe,” Pierce said in the statement. Pegge Erkeneff, communications liaison with the school district, said the district’s facilities received minimal damage. “We don’t plan to close any schools; we feel confident that schools are safe, or they wouldn’t be open,” Superintendent Sean Dusek said in a statement. “The two-hour delay start on Monday was weather-related, not from the earthquake.” Borough maintenance fixed a minor leak in the Kenai Central High School heating system. The school remained in session. Nikiski Middle/High School was released early on Friday following the earthquake because of a loss of water pressure caused by a power outage. A minor water leak in the heating system was also patched. Tebughna School in Tyonek suffered a substantial loss of ceiling tiles in the gym, which caused an early release on Friday. Hope School was released early on Friday, following a water and propane gas leak. Paul Banks Elementary and West Homer Elementary had gas leaks at their boilers, which were isolated, patched and repaired. The schools remained in session. Chapman School in Ninilchik also reported a minor gas leak, which was repaired, Erkeneff said.
Erkeneff said most of the damage at borough schools was addressed on Friday. “All damage except the ceiling damage was either repaired or patched by the end of the day,” Erkeneff said. “Permanent repairs for temporary patches will be completed within the next few weeks.” She said several schools have minor cracking and will be looked over by borough maintenance and a structural engineer, which will take several weeks. Jack Blackwell is the superintendent for the State Parks Department in the Kenai Peninsula and Prince William Sound area. He said the Eagle Rock Boat Launch access road, in between Kenai and Soldotna, was damaged by a landslide, triggered by the earthquake. “Half of the hill slid into the wetlands below,” Blackwell said. “We were closed for the season so there were no vehicles or people in the area.” He said the State Parks Department engineers will look over the damaged road and assess further damage. Mayor Pierce said the borough will continue to improve emergency response in the case of another similar event in the future. Pierce said residents can help by being prepared, keeping emergency supplies at home, vehicles fueled and helping each other during times of emergency. If residents see any significant damage to property, including their own, reach out to www.kpb.us/emergency or call 262-4910. The borough encourages residents to take photos or videos of any damage or losses. Additional assistance from the state may become available.
Today in History Today is Tuesday, Dec. 4, the 338th day of 2018. There are 27 days left in the year. Today’s Highlights in History: On Dec. 4, 1783, Gen. George Washington bade farewell to his Continental Army officers at Fraunces Tavern in New York. On this date: In 1619, a group of settlers from Bristol, England, arrived at Berkeley Hundred in present-day Charles City County, Virginia, where they held a service thanking God for their safe arrival. In 1867, the National Grange of the Order of Patrons of Husbandry, also known as The Grange, was founded in Washington, D.C., to promote the interests of farmers. In 1875, William Marcy Tweed, the “Boss” of New York City’s Tammany Hall political organization, escaped from jail and fled the country. In 1918, President Woodrow Wilson left Washington on a trip to France to attend the Versailles (vehr-SY’) Peace Conference. In 1942, during World War II, U.S. bombers struck the Italian mainland for the first time with a raid on Naples. President Franklin D. Roosevelt ordered the dismantling of the Works Progress Administration, which had been created to provide jobs during the Depression. In 1945, the Senate approved U.S. participation in the United Nations by a vote of 65-7. In 1965, the United States launched Gemini 7 with Air Force Lt. Col. Frank Borman and Navy Cmdr. James A. Lovell aboard on a two-week mission. (While Gemini 7 was in orbit, its sister ship, Gemini 6A, was launched on Dec. 15 on a one-day mission; the two spacecraft were able to rendezvous within a foot of each other.) In 1978, San Francisco got its first female mayor as City Supervisor Dianne Feinstein (FYN’-styn) was named to replace the assassinated George Moscone (mahs-KOH’-nee). In 1991, Associated Press correspondent Terry Anderson, the longest held of the Western hostages in Lebanon, was released after nearly seven years in captivity. The original Pan American World Airways ceased operations. In 1995, the first NATO troops landed in the Balkans to begin setting up a peace mission that brought American soldiers into the middle of the Bosnian conflict. In 1996, the Mars Pathfinder lifted off from Cape Canaveral and began speeding toward the red planet on a 310 million-mile odyssey. (It arrived on Mars in July 1997.) In 2000, in a pair of legal setbacks for Al Gore, a Florida state judge refused to overturn George W. Bush’s certified victory in Florida and the U.S. Supreme Court set aside a ruling that had allowed manual recounts. Ten years ago: U.S. automakers drew fresh skepticism from lawmakers during a Senate Banking Committee hearing over their pleas for an expanded $34 billion rescue package they said was needed for them to survive. For the first time, an NFL game was broadcast live in 3-D to theaters in Boston, New York and Los Angeles. (Although the telecast was marred by technical glitches, fans were mostly forgiving as they watched the San Diego Chargers beat the Oakland Raiders 34-7.) Five years ago: A senior commander in the militant group Hezbollah, Hassan al-Laqis, was shot dead outside his home in Lebanon, the latest in a series of attacks against the Iranian-backed organization, which accused Israel of the attack. Oscar De La Hoya was selected for induction into the International Boxing Hall of Fame; two of his contemporaries in the modern era -- Puerto Rican star Felix “Tito” Trinidad and Joe Calzaghe of Wales -- were also selected. One year ago: Declaring that “public lands will once again be for public use,” President Donald Trump scaled back two sprawling national monuments in Utah; it was the first time in a half century that a president had undone that type of land protection. The Supreme Court allowed the Trump administration to fully enforce a ban on travel to the United States by residents of six mostly Muslim countries. Trump formally endorsed Republican Roy Moore in the Alabama Senate race, looking past sexual misconduct allegations against the GOP candidate. Today’s Birthdays: Game show host Wink Martindale is 85.

What Others Say
Trump’s asylum policies flout law, common decency Parents and children who have walked 1,000 miles to ask for asylum are not breaking United States laws by crossing the border, no matter what President Donald Trump says. Trump’s administration, on the other hand, has repeatedly ignored or flouted the laws that Congress has enacted on immigration, which explains why Trump keeps losing in court. Rather than tear gassing children, the administration should do its job by providing the personnel and space required to process asylum claims as set out by law. Instead the administration is intentionally creating backups of asylum seekers at the border. The backups started before Trump’s pre-election warnings of a dangerous invading caravan. (Never mind that many of the invaders were outfitted in diapers or flip-flops.) In late September, the Department of Homeland Security’s Office of Inspector General reported that limiting the volume of asylum-seekers at ports of entry had fueled an increase in illegal border crossings. Of course, none other than former Attorney General Jeff Sessions and DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen had encouraged adult asylum seekers to cross at ports of entry to avoid prosecution and separation from their children. Parents blocked by backlogs at ports of entry were more likely to cross illegally, the IG explains, exacerbating the humanitarian crisis of family separations spawned by Sessions’ “zero tolerance” policy. The law allows even those who have crossed illegally to seek asylum once they’re here. There’s no guarantee that asylum will be granted. Sessions made it even harder to win asylum by excluding victims of domestic violence from consideration. But immigrants are guaranteed the chance to seek asylum through a process enshrined in law. Our asylum laws are rooted in post-World War II responses to the shameful rejection by this country and others of refugees from the Holocaust. Common sense and common decency tell us that only those fleeing genuinely desperate circumstances would leave their homes on foot for a 1,000 mileplus trek with young children in tow. But now immigrants fleeing the criminal gangs that Trump has repeatedly evoked are damned, under his law-defying policies, if they follow the rules and damned if they don’t.
George H.W. Bush: Man of character
I first met the man who would become America’s 41st president in 1968. He was a Houston congressman and I was a young reporter for a local TV and radio station. My first impression was how kind he was to this “kid,” who had just moved to Texas from the Washington, D.C., area and was just starting to learn the “language,” like “fixing to go” and “y’all.” Everyone who worked for George H.W. Bush, or knew him, has a story to tell. I have several. Mr. Bush was a letter writer like none other. I think I have an almost complete collection of his notes and letters, some typed, some handwritten, from every position he held in public life. These include congressman, Republican National Committee chairman, chief liaison officer to the People’s Republic of China, U.N. ambassador, CIA director, vice president and president. When he became president, I wrote him a congratulatory note and he responded on White House stationery. I later told him I was keeping the letter “just in case you amount to something.” He laughed. One time we were scheduled to meet at Walker’s Point, the Bush family compound in Kennebunkport, Maine, where they had vacationed for decades. Mr. Bush had to cancel due to an unexpected visit from an ambassador. Apparently concerned that my feelings would be hurt, he instructed an aid to get a phone number where he could call me. I gave him a payphone number at a local hardware store (this was before cell-

got their tax increase, but didn’t deliver on spending cuts. He also took heat for nominating David Souter to the Supreme Court. Souter was sold to him as a conservative by Chief of Staff John Sununu, but he turned out to rule with the court’s liberal wing. Still, he gave conservatives Clarence Thomas, a solid constitutional originalist. As president, Mr. Bush brought just the right attitude to the collapse of the Soviet Union, warning Americans they should not engage in triumphalism over the collapse of the communist regime (many celebrated anyway) and the end of the Cold War because of the uncertainty of what might follow. He also ordered the military to oust Saddam Hussein’s forces after they had invaded Kuwait, a highly successful operation. Any epitaph on the life of George H.W. Bush must include at least three words: character, honor and integrity. From his service in World War II, to his political career and post-presidency, not to mention his faithfulness to Barbara, his wife of 73 years. Perhaps one of the reasons he seems so attractive is his contrast with the current bitter and corrosive political climate. We are not likely to see his kind again, but we will have his memory and example to recall when considering the definition of the word gentleman.

Congress seeks 2-week extension to avert government shutdown By MATTHEW DALY and CATHERINE LUCEY Associated Press
— The (Kentucky) Lexington Herald-Leader, WASHINGTON — Congressional Nov. 27 leaders introduced a two-week funding bill
Letters to the Editor:
phones had become ubiquitous) and he called to apologize. Our last meeting was two years ago at Walker’s Point and this time he didn’t cancel. My youngest daughter was with me. We were told Cal Thomas that the president sometimes appeared to doze off, but that he was listening. We had a wonderful visit, recalling Houston days. He asked questions and seemed lucid and interested in talking politics and world events. On one visit to the Oval Office when he was president, he sat behind the desk and I sat in a chair next to him. When I showed his son, the 43rd president, that picture some years later, he motioned me over to the same desk, we sat down and the picture was replicated. I have both hanging in my office. Mr. Bush was not a favorite of conservatives, who believed he would be the third term of his predecessor, Ronald Reagan. When he promised a “kinder, gentler nation,” some thought he was being critical of Reagan. In fact, a case could be made that it wasn’t Reagan who was unkind and ungentle, but his critics. Mr. Bush faltered when he broke his “read my lips, no new taxes” pledge in exchange for a promise by congressional Democrats to cut spending. The Democrats
Monday to avert a partial government shutdown over President Donald Trump’s border wall, as business in the Capitol came to a standstill for ceremonies honoring former President George H.W. Bush. The stopgap measure would keep the government funded through Dec. 21, two weeks after a Friday deadline when funding for a portion of the government, including the Department of Homeland Security, is set to expire. The measure comes as Trump kept up pressure Monday on congressional Democrats to fund his promised border wall and threatened other actions to deter illegal immigration as negotiations continue. “We would save Billions of Dollars if the Democrats would give us the votes to build the Wall,” Trump tweeted without evidence Monday. “Either way, people will NOT be allowed into our Country illegally! We will close the entire Southern Border if necessary.” House leaders canceled roll call votes this week for ceremonies honoring Bush, who died Friday, meaning an extension will be needed to avert a funding lapse. While Democrats prefer a one-week extension, they signaled they would not object to a two-week delay. Trump made clear over the weekend he would agree to a short-term funding extension to allow for ceremonies honoring Bush.
Democrats have little interest in providing the $5 billion Trump wants for the southern border, and with the party set to take control of the House in the new year, opposition to the wall has hardened. Even some Republicans balk at spending more than the $1.6 billion for fencing and other security improvements already provided. But Trump has signaled he’s ready to fight for the money as one of the last big-ticket items of the GOP-led Congress before Democrats take over the House following a decisive victory in the midterm elections. The president invited the top Democratic leaders, Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York and Rep. Nancy Pelosi of California, to the White House for a meeting Tuesday, but Democrats asked to postpone it because of Bush’s funeral. The meeting has been tentatively rescheduled for Dec. 11, said a White House official who was not authorized to speak publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity. Trump told reporters on Air Force One on Saturday he would be willing to sign a two-week funding extension. “I would absolutely consider it and probably give it,” he told reporters. Schumer has suggested one option would be for Trump to accept the Senate’s $1.6 billion bipartisan border security package, along with the remaining $1.3 billion from the current fiscal year that has not yet been spent. The country shouldn’t have to endure a shutdown over “Trump’s temper tantrum,” Schumer said last week.
While Trump has pushed Democrats to build the wall, Schumer and Pelosi face growing pressure from the party’s liberal wing to block it. A group of border-state House Democrats sent Schumer a letter last week expressing opposition to any funding for the wall, which they said would separate local communities and antagonize Mexico. Rep. Henry Cuellar, D-Texas, called the wall “a 14th-century solution to a 21stcentury problem” and suggested that money would be better spent on more Border Patrol officers, technology and equipment. Rep. Vicente Gonzalez, D-Texas, said, “We need all hands on deck to oppose frivolous border wall spending proposals. That includes Leader Schumer.” Besides the funding bill, Congress is considering a sweeping criminal justice package with sentencing reforms, a farm bill that’s a top priority of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and other items before they adjourn for the year. The Kentucky Republican told reporters over the weekend that it’s up to Trump “to do a deal with the Democrats.” He said, “I think that’s the path to getting a signature and avoiding a government shutdown.” Nearly three-quarters of the federal government has been funded for the fiscal year that runs through Sept. 30, 2019, but a stalemate remains over wall funding and several remaining federal agencies, including the Justice and State departments. Federal funding for those agencies is set to expire at midnight Friday.

Nation/World Bush saluted as ‘gentle soul,’ ‘great man’ By CALVIN WOODWARD, LAURIE KELLMAN and ASHRAF KHALIL Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The nation’s capital embraced George H.W. Bush in death Monday with solemn ceremony and high tributes to his service and decency, as the remains of the 41st president took their place in the Capitol rotunda for three days of mourning and praise by the political elite and everyday citizens alike. With Bush’s casket atop the Lincoln Catafalque, first used for Abraham Lincoln’s 1865 funeral, dignitaries came forward to honor the Texan whose efforts for his country extended three quarters of a century from World War II through his final years as an advocate for volunteerism and relief for people displaced by natural disaster. President from 1989 to 1993, Bush died Friday at age 94. In an invocation opening Monday evening’s ceremony, the U.S. House chaplain, the Rev. Patrick J Conroy, praised Bush’s commitment to public service, from Navy pilot to congressman, U.N. ambassador, envoy to China and then CIA director before being elected vice president and then president. “Here lies a great man,” said Rep. Paul Ryan, the House

ments. Democratic Rep. Nancy Pelosi, past and incoming House speaker, exchanged a warm hug with George W. Bush and came away dabbing her face. Bush himself seemed to be holding back tears. Pelosi and Chuck Schumer, the Senate Democratic leader, placed wreaths in the short ceremony before the rotunda was to
be opened to the public. It was to remain open overnight. Sent off from Texas with a 21-gun salute, Bush’s casket was carried to Joint Base Andrews outside the capital city aboard an aircraft that often serves as Air Force One and designated “Special Air Mission 41” in honor of Bush’s place on the chronological list of presidents.
Violent protests in France reveal a hard-to-heal fracture By ELAINE GANLEY Associated Press
PARIS — A grassroots protest movement in France has ballooned and radicalized, unleashing anger that devastated the heart of Paris in weekend riots and revealed a fracture in the country between the haves and have-nots. Tough talk by unpopular President Emmanuel Macron, who has been roundly blamed for the chaos, isn’t likely to mend the growing sense of social injustice. Discontent about the rising cost of living among the “little people,” as many protesters call themselves, had been growing, along with a sense of marginalization. The approach of Macron’s fuel tax increases in January, meant to wean the French off fossil fuels, has caused things to snap. The weekend violence in Paris, in which more than 130 people were injured and over 400 were arrested, was the worst in the country in decades, officials have said. The protesters say they want to level a playing field that they believe is tipped in favor of the elite and well-off city dwellers. The fuel tax “was the spark,” said Thierry Paul Valette, a Paris protest coordinator, in an interview. “If it hadn’t been
MEXICO CITY — Mexico’s newly inaugurated president kicked off his first Monday in office with something not seen in recent history — a news conference and a pledge to hold one every working day of his six-year term to keep the people informed. Two days after taking the oath as the first leftist president in decades of technocrats, Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador made good on his promise to govern as a common man and end decades of secrecy, heavy security and luxury enjoyed by past presidents. His workday began at 7 a.m. with a gathering of more than 100 reporters, photographers and TV cameramen all trained on the new leader, his gray hair slightly ruffled as he answered questions. “Isn’t that a change that I am here, informing you?” Lopez Obrador asked. While past presidents have rarely held news conferences, Lopez Obrador promised to do so on a near-daily basis, much as he did when he was mayor of Mexico City from 2000-2005. “He didn’t hit the ground running, he hit the ground flying,”
RALEIGH, N.C. — A report of a possible gunman at William Peace University’s downtown Raleigh campus prompted the school to tell people to shelter in place Monday. But authorities later gave the all-clear, saying police determined there never was a threat. Students hid together in rooms until they were told it was safe to leave after a tense two hours on the campus of the small, private liberal arts college. In a tweet, the school initially said a gunman was reportedly on his way to the campus. Raleigh police were called to investigate and the school said they conducted a thorough investigation and found no such threat. “At no time was campus safety compromised,” university president Brian Ralph said in a statement afterward. However, all remaining classes for the day were canceled except for online courses at the university’s school for professional studies. Hours earlier, while authorities investigated, helicopters circled above the school as campus alarms could be heard across the street. Officers could be seen walking around campus. “We were in class and the sirens started going off and we all assumed it was a drill,” said Tori Harrell, a 21-year-old senior. But she said their teacher informed them that it wasn’t a drill. “We threw a big cabinet in front of the door and hid behind the desk” at the front of the room where the teacher does lectures, she said. She said it was a tense two hours of sheltering in place. “We were all really scared. We were calling our parents,” she said, adding a lot of people were crying .She said there was little information for the first 20 minutes or so but after that she felt like the school did an adequate job of communicating. William Peace, which is affiliated with the Presbyterian Church, is located just north of the North Carolina government complex, which includes the Legislature. Shanice Frazier, a junior, said she was arriving for class when she heard the alarms go off and a friend texted her to find a place to hide. She also said she got an alert from the university warning of a possible gunman. She said she tried to get into several buildings but they were locked so she walked across the street to the outskirts of a shopping center to wait. She said she had done drills before in high school for an active gunman so she was trying to keep calm. Standing at the edge of campus near where about 12 police cars were parked, student John Everett said he returned from lunch off campus to the alarm. “Everything was fine. Me and my friend, we went to a 30-minute lunch and when we got back, cops are everywhere,” the senior said. He said he never got a campus alert but later heard there was a possible threat. Everett said he talked to a professor who was sheltering in a small office with 20 students. “It’s alarming because we’ve never heard this before. In my four years here, nothing ever happened. Not one fight.”

(that), it would have been something else.” “People want fair fiscal justice. They want social justice,” he added, as well as improved purchasing power. Members of the nationwide movement call themselves the “yellow vests,” after the fluorescent safety clothing that all French motorists are obliged to keep in their cars. “It’s clear the position of President Emmanuel Macron is untenable … contempt for a France that suffers and con-
tempt for a France that’s not doing well,” Valette said. The Yellow Vest movement has no leaders but is trying to organize and choose legitimate representatives to negotiate with the government. An attempt to meet last week with Prime Minister Edouard Philippe failed. Reports that another rendezvous announced for Tuesday was canceled by the protesters could not be immediately confirmed. The movement, which organized on social media in Oc-
tober, was initially made up of retirees, the self-employed, artisans and others having a hard time making ends meet, often from rural France and in their 30s and 40s, said Sorbonne sociologist Jean-Francois Amadieu, an expert in social movements. As the government braces for a fourth weekend of protests, discontent spread Monday to ambulance workers and some high schools with students upset about scholastic reforms.
Mexico’s ‘common man’ president pledges end to secrecy By MARIA VERZA and MARK STEVENSON Associated Press
Around the World
said Federico Estevez, a political science professor at the Autonomous Technological Institute of Mexico, who was impressed by the president’s ability to improvise and speak for hours on end without using a teleprompter. Estevez compared Lopez Obrador’s start to the early days of U.S. President Franklin Roosevelt, minus the fireside chats. “It’s very similar. And (Lopez Obrador) is going to build his party into a generational force, and the opposition is going to remain a minority for God knows how long.” On Monday, Lopez Obrador tackled a case that cast a long shadow over the previous government, signing a presidential decree creating a truth commission to investigate the 2014 disappearance of 43 students in an apparent massacre. He then posed with parents of the missing young people, who displayed photos of their loved ones. Prosecutors have said the students from a teachers college in southern Guerrero state were killed by a drug gang and their bodies incinerated in a massive fire. But conclusive evidence has never been found or presented, leading the students’ parents on a frustrating, painful four-year quest for the truth.

“We have hope that he will be more humane,” said Maria Martinez, the mother of one of the missing students. Referring to Lopez Obrador’s two previous failed presidential bids, she told him: “You set the example for us that he who perseveres will triumph eventually. You are a good example that one has to keep fighting.” Earlier, the new president arrived at Mexico City’s National Palace in the same white Volkswagen Jetta compact car he used before taking office Saturday. He has refused the military bodyguards used by past presidents and travels with a small staff of aides who provide security. He usually travels economy class.
“I feel safe, protected and supported by the Mexican people,” Lopez Obrador said. At 65, he is the oldest president in the last half-century — six of his eight predecessors were in their 40s when they took office — and he has displayed impressive stamina. Following a lengthy inauguration address on Saturday, he spent more than an hour and a half speaking in Mexico City’s main square, talking about government programs in granular detail: how concrete for roads would be mixed to maximize the use of local labor, and which animal and tree species would be best for agriculture and reforestation programs.
JERUSALEM — Israeli police on Sunday recommended indicting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on bribery charges related to a corruption case involving Israel’s telecom giant, prompting immediate calls for his resignation. Police say their investigation has established an evidentiary foundation to charge Netanyahu and his wife Sara with accepting bribes, fraud and breach of trust. The case revolves around suspicions that confidants of Netanyahu promoted regulations worth hundreds of millions of dollars to the Bezeq telecom company in exchange for positive coverage of the prime minister on Bezeq’s subsidiary news website, Walla. Police have already recommended indicting Netanyahu on corruption charges in two other cases. One involves accepting gifts from billionaire friends, and the second revolves around alleged offers of advantageous legislation for a newspaper in return for positive coverage. The prime minister has denied any wrongdoing, dismissing the accusations as a witch hunt orchestrated by the media. “The police recommendations regarding me and my wife don’t surprise anyone,” Netanyahu said in a statement. “These recommendations were decided upon and leaked even before the investigation began.” The Bezeq case, known as Case 4000, is the most serious of all those of which Netanyahu has been accused. Two of his top confidants have turned state witnesses and are believed to have provided police with incriminating evidence. Netanyahu held the government’s communications portfolio until last year and oversaw regulation in the field. Former journalists at the Walla news site have attested to being pressured to refrain from negative reporting of Netanyahu. Police say the investigation, which included the testimony of 60 witnesses, revealed that Netanyahu and Bezeq boss Shaul Elovitch engaged in a “bribe-based relationship.” From 2012 to 2017 the prime minister and his associates “blatantly intervened” on a near-daily basis in the Walla news site, using the connections with Elovitch to influence appointments there and to promote flattering articles and pictures while quelling critical stories of the prime minister and his family, police said. Police are also recommending charges be brought against Elovitch and members of his family. “The most serious bribery case yet leaves no room for doubt: a prime minister who is accused of the most serious offense for a public servant in the Israeli rule book cannot keep serving one minute longer,” said Tamar Zandberg, head of the dovish opposition Meretz party. “The prime minister has no moral mandate to keep his seat and must resign today. Israel must go to elections.” Other opposition figures, including opposition leader Tzipi Livni, quickly joined in the call for Netanyahu to resign. Netanyahu’s colleagues in the ruling Likud party have lined up behind up, attacking outgoing Police Commissioner Roni Alsheikh for releasing the recommendation on his last day on the job. The appointment of Alsheikh’s potential successor is being held up after a government-appointed committee rejected his candidacy. The other coalition partners have previously deferred bolting, saying they would await a formal decision by Israel’s attorney general to press charges. But the latest development further threatens the wobbly government, already weakened by the recent departure of Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman and his party. Netanyahu’s coalition currently enjoys only the slimmest of parliamentary majorities. — The Associated Press

Men’s friendship changes when one finds a new job one who initiated the fishing trips and visits to his family’s ranch? If not, it seems to me that he was doing his part in maintaining the friendship. It’s possible he may have met someone and be involved in a romance, or just busy. If you were the heavy lifter in your relationship, you should not expect him to change. I think it’s time YOU reached Abigail Van Buren out and checked in. DEAR ABBY: Lately I have been feeling torn between staying in my relationship or leaving. I have always maintained I was doing the right thing for my kids by staying with their father. He’s a good man, but he has always said he never wanted kids. At times he can be a really fun father, however, more often than not, he chooses not to do things with us. I don’t want my kids to miss out on a full and memorable childhood, but he is more focused on his own wants and needs. We have a family vacation trip planned with my family, and he has chosen not to go and instead take a week for himself to do what he wants to do. I want my kids to have a father who wants to be in
their lives and do things with them, but this doesn’t seem to be what he wants. I don’t know what to do. Help, please. -- WANTS WHAT’S BEST IN IDAHO DEAR WANTS: If your partner made clear that he didn’t want children, how is it that you had at least two with him? If you leave him so your children will have a father who wants to be in their lives, how do you plan to conjure one up? What you need to do is evaluate your options and not overreact. Discuss this with someone who is rational and unbiased. You didn’t list any of the positive traits this “good man” possesses. Be careful before making any rash decisions. No one’s perfect, and he may become more hands-on as the kids get older. Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

If you are single, you are likely to meet The One. When you meet this person, you will know immediately. If you are attached, you and your partner need to plan more fun times together. Go on dates more often. You can trust SCORPIO with a secret. 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) HHH Juggle your finances carefully. A decision could have implications beyond the obvious. You initially might look at the worst-case scenario and then decide to be reasonably indulgent. You are likely to see a situation from a more moderate point of view. Tonight: Out and about. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH Maximize the moment. You might have a special friend visiting. A loved one will notice how busy you are and retreat. Make sure this person is not being left out; ask if he or she would like to join you. Tonight: Whatever you choose is perfect. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHH You don’t need to explain why you need some time alone. Many of you will be doing holiday shopping. The intensity of a personal relationship could overwhelm you. Take some time and distance

yourself rather than create an uproar. Tonight: Nap, then decide. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Listen to a friend, as he or she gives you the scoop on what is happening with several friends and a get-together. A loved one could feel as if he or she isn’t included in this group. For your sake, do not allow this person to feel insecure. Tonight: Do what you love. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Others share with you as though you were their confidant. A problem could occur when more than one of these people are around, as there could be an undertone of jealousy. Support yourself in who you are. A loved one understands you well. Tonight: A force to behold. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Keep trying to get a hold of a friend. You care a lot about this person. Fill out cards and buy presents, especially for those at a distance. Recognize your limits. Invite friends to go caroling. Get into holiday music. Tonight: In the spirit of the moment. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH Continue to relate to close friends and loved ones directly. There is something about you that makes others want to be your sole focus. You give the gift of being present in the moment. Tonight: Spend some close time with a loved one. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH Touch base with several loved ones. Even if you are heading in different directions during the day, it doesn’t mean that you won’t be

able to get together later. You might be the force that brings loved ones together. Tonight: Enjoy a laid-back gathering. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHH You might be stuck in high gear trying to get as much done as possible. At some point, try to squeeze in a nap. A loved one will join you later in the day, as he or she wants to hang out with you, even if it means going shopping or finally getting a tree. Tonight: Celebrate life. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH You will want to spend some quality time with a special someone, but you have a lot to get done. Everyone is as busy as you are, and they probably would like to steal some time away with their loved ones, too. Tonight: When you feel tired, stop. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH You could be thinking that you should run some holiday errands, but you simply might need some time off from the hectic pace. Once you decide to lie low, you might want to screen your calls. Tonight: Curl up with a favorite book and play it low-key. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Hook up with a friend for lunch to visit and discuss your holiday plans and gift-giving arrangements. For you, most of the pleasure of the holidays comes from visiting with different friends, especially if they live out of town. Tonight: A hot toddy and some holiday fun.

TIPTOP SERVICE Hi, Heloise: I saw a recent letter in your column about tipping housekeeping staff. Maids at hotels and motels are among the lowest-paid and hardest-working women in the workforce. Many are single mothers supporting families and barely earning enough to make ends meet. When checking out, we always leave money on the pillow. -- E.S., Redondo Beach, Calif. Etiquette rules say to tip the housekeepers between $2 and $5 per day, since you may have different housekeepers. Tip daily, and leave the tip in a labeled envelope. -- Heloise CLASS ACT Dear Heloise: My parents owned a store. They instilled in us the importance of being attentive to the customer. Be kind and gracious. Four students from the high school senior class (as a class fundraiser) would come work in the store, and a percentage of the profits would go to the class. -- Jeannette F., Rochester, N.Y. P.S. I remember my father teaching one of the boys how to tie his necktie! Wonderful lessons learned! -- Heloise LABEL LOVER Dear Heloise: As a former illustrator and greeting card designer, I appreciate the artistic talent and work it takes to create beautiful cards. Therefore, I recycle the cards by using the illustrated card front cover as a gift label. I cut off the front card cover and write the “To” and “From” on it and attach it to the gift. -- A Reader, via email TEXT MANAGEMENT Dear Heloise: I like to hang on to my text messages. They are time- and datestamped, and I can look back on them to verify many things. -- Maria M. in Pennsylvania

DEAR ABBY: I thought I had a best friend. We got to know each other when we worked together for almost four years. He’s straight, I’m gay and we’re total opposites. However, he taught me how to fish and took me shooting at his family’s ranch; we would go to dinners/ lunches and go to the city. He’s a few years older than I am (he’s in his 30s). When I went to rehab for six weeks, he came to visit me. But when I celebrated my first year of sobriety a few months back, he never congratulated me. I found a new job almost a year ago, so we stopped seeing or contacting each other. Looking back, I was always the one asking to hang out and planning the days when we would do fun things together. I feel hurt that he hasn’t checked in with me, but I feel like my friendship should be valued and that friendships should be a two-way street. Am I being childish? Is it too late to reach out? It’s been six months with no contact. I thought I showed him how much I cared about our friendship. It would have meant a lot to me if he had reached out to see how I was doing. -- FRIENDLESS GUY IN CALIFORNIA DEAR FRIENDLESS GUY: The fact you no longer work together may have something to do with his silence -- out of sight, out of mind.

Pets Bomb dogs sweep stands for explosives before every WVU game By WILLIAM DEAN The Dominion Post
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Before 60,000 or more screaming fans fill the seats at Mountaineer Field to cheer the football team, to a trio of noses works hard to make sure Milan Puskar Stadium is safe for all. Ginger, a 7-year-old field golden retriever; Nina, a 2-year-old field golden Re-
triever; and Allie, a 6-year-old chocolate Lab, are explosive detection dogs with the WVU Police K-9 unit. The unit also has Riley, an 18-month German short-haired pointer, a narcotics dog. Before every home game at Mountaineer Field, the dogs spend 18 hours, starting at 6 a.m. the day before, sweeping the stadium for explosives, Lt. Josh Cook said.
Cook said a dog will work for about 15-20 minutes and then have a short rest while one of the others takes over. WVU Police Chief W.P. Chedester said the K-9 unit means a lot to the department. The unit was started in the early 2000s and went so well, it expanded. Now the department is asked to help other agencies and handles “all the big events� in

Morgantown, Chedester said. Cook said the canines and their handlers sweep before any event at the stadium or coliseum and the unit, the largest explosive K-9 unit in the state, has been asked to help with everything from political rallies to concerts. During a recent sweep of the WVU Coliseum before a woman’s basketball game, Nina, sniffing along the wall
between sections, around trash cans and anywhere Cook pointed, suddenly sat. That’s her signal that something isn’t right. Cook unhooked a tennis ball kept on his belt and tossed it to her. She’d found something hidden where a fire extinguisher is kept. “It’s just a game to her,� Cook said. The unit has never found a

Meet Julian Julian is a sweet boy who loves his people and other cats. Loves to zoom around the house playing with his cat friends. Not a fan of dogs but could get along with another dog who doesn’t get in his face. He likes to curl up in the cat tree for bedtime and purr the night away. He’s a happy boy who would be purrfect for any loving family. He will need a safe place to go outside once he has adapted and the warm cozy weather returns.

Detection dogs can smell 44 times better than humans, Cook said. The dogs are able to detect about 19,000 different combinations of explosives, Cook said.

Meet Bass This sweet little girl takes a while to get to know you. She is a climber and will need a secure yard. She needs a home where she will no longer have to be stuck at the end of a chain but rather have someone who is willing to be patient with her to help her gain confidence as a dog again. She is so sweet once she knows she can trust you.
