In the news Officials warn of weak ice in Lower Kuskokwim River BETHEL — Winter weather is slow to arrive along the Lower Kuskokwim River, with open water complicating Thanksgiving holiday travels.

KYUK reports that section of the Kuskokwim is facing another late freezeup. Bethel Search and Rescue officials say the river is still not safe for travel.

Officials say weak, irregular ice has formed in the river and multiple open holes remain. Numerous tundra lakes in the area also remain open.

Officials recommend that people setting nets or going ice fishing walk with an ice pick and check the ice before each step.

Search and Rescue officials also often recommend people wear life jackets or float coats when going out on the ice during freeze-up.

People line up in Fairbanks for Costco opening FAIRBANKS — Fairbanks shoppers lined up early Tuesday morning to check out the new Costco warehouse store when it opened for business.

The Fairbanks Daily News-Miner reports people started showing up more than an hour before the doors opened. The new store fills a void left by the closure of Sam’s Club in January.

Dave DeLany was among the early arrivals.

He dressed warmly to wait in line, but got there early enough to wait in the entryway.

The two big items on his list?

Pumpkin pie and rotisserie chicken.

Men’s recovery home moves closer to reality Freedom House receives anonymous $250,000 donation

By VICTORIA PETERSEN Peninsula Clarion

Jennifer Waller said she was completely shocked when a local husband and wife came into her office at Freedom House earlier this week and offered to donate the $250,000 needed for Freedom House to purchase a home for the men’s installment of the Freedom House mission.

Waller is the founder of Freedom House, a faith-based women’s recovery home. Since August, she’s been actively pursuing funding and resources to create a recovery home for men. She said she’s been applying for grants and fundraising, and was even getting ready to take out a loan this week for the purchase of Soldotna home that Waller envisioned as the men’s Freedom House location.

“This was the time,” Waller said. ”We literally have men dying on the streets of overdoses.”

Waller said the purchase of the home should be wrapping up in the next couple of weeks, and she anticipates renovations to begin next month. She said she is hoping for an early 2019 opening.

The Kenai National Wildlife Refuge is open for Christmas tree-cutting from Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, Nov. 22, through Christmas Day, Tuesday, Dec. 25, according to a Tuesday press release.

With a limit of one per household, trees are free and may not be taller than 20 feet.

Residents can cut a tree anywhere on the refuge land, except anywhere within 150 feet of a road, lake, stream, trail, campground or picnic area.

The refuge asks that people cut the stumps as close to the ground as possible, with hand tools. No trees can be cut at the Refuge Headquarters or Visitor Center and along Ski Hill Road. Questions and additional information can be directed to the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge office, 907- The Kenai National Wildlife Refuge is open for Christmas tree-cutting from Thanksgiving to Christmas.

Pebble launches postelection outreach campaign ANCHORAGE (AP) — The company behind a proposed copper and gold mine near a major salmon fishery in southwest Alaska has launched a new marketing campaign after voters defeated a ballot measure aimed at protecting salmon habitat and elected a Republican governor.

The proposed Pebble Mine in the Bristol Bay region still faces opposition and regulatory hurdles, but Pebble Limited Partnership is seeking to reach out to residents, KTVATV reported Monday.

Freezer Food Series trades Davidson considers her political future darkness for daylight

By JEFF HELMINIAK Peninsula Clarion

The Freezer Food Series has come out of the darkness and into the light.

Last year’s maiden voyage of the running, biking and skiing races at Tsalteshi Trails was held at 6 p.m. on Wednesdays.

This year, the series moves to 2 p.m. Sundays.

“By making it happen during daylight we’re making it warmer and we’re hoping there’s more interest,” said Jordan Chilson, a board member of the Tsalteshi Trails Association. “It won’t be happening in the freezing cold and darkness.”

The goal of the series is to See FOOD, page A14

BETHEL (AP) — Alaska Lt. Gov. Valerie Davidson said she hasn’t ruled anything out about continuing her political career when the new administration enters office next month.

While on a trip to Bethel last week, Davidson told KYUK-AM that becoming governor was a high school ambition, noting that she still has time to possibly pursue that career goal at a later date.

“If I’m interested in running for governor, if that’s going to be a four-year time frame, whether that’s eight years or 12 years, I have time,” Davidson said. “I’m 51, so I’m going to kind of see what that is.”

She will leave office when Republican Gov.-elect Mike Dunleavy becomes Alaska’s top elected official Dec. 3.

“People have asked me, you know, what are you going to do next, and my immediate plan is I am going to sleep,” Davidson said. “I’m probably going to enjoy my first full night of sleep that I’ve had in about four years.”

Before leaving, Davidson expects her next couple of weeks to be consumed by certifying election results.

Fire victims’ families urged to give DNA

By KATHLEEN RONAYNE Associated Press

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Authorities are using a powerful tool in their effort to identify the scores of people killed by the wildfire that ripped through Northern California: rapid DNA testing that produces results in just two hours.

The system can analyze DNA from bone fragments or other remains, then match it to genetic material provided by relatives of the missing. But the technology depends on people coming forward to give a DNA sample via a cheek swab, and so far, there are not nearly as many volunteers as authorities had hoped for.

As of Tuesday, nearly two weeks after the inferno devastated the town of Paradise and surrounding areas, the number of confirmed dead stood at 79, and the sheriff’s list of those unaccounted for had about 700 names.

But only about 60 people had provided samples to popup labs at the Butte County Sheriff’s office in Oroville and an old Sears building in Chico, where the Federal Emergency Management Agency set up a disaster relief center, said Annette Mattern, a spokeswoman for ANDE, the Longmont, Colorado, company that is donating the technology.

“We need hundreds,” Mattern said. “We need a big enough sample for us to make a positive ID on these and to also give a better idea of how many losses there actually are.”

Confusion and conflicting information, the inability of relatives to travel to Northern California and mistrust of the government may be contributing to the low number.

Tara Quinones hadn’t heard anything from her uncle, David Marbury, for eight days before she drove north from the San Francisco Bay Area to give a sample Friday. A worker used a small tool to scrape her cheek, took three swabs of skin and asked her detailed questions about who she was looking for

In this Nov. 15 file photo, investigators recover human remains at a home burned in the Camp Fire in Magalia, Calif. (AP Photo/John Locher, File)

and their relationship.

The uncle’s landlord confirmed his house burned down with his vehicle still in the garage, but Quinones had no idea if any remains were found.

Marbury’s name keeps going on and off the ever-changing list of the missing.

“I did it just to be proactive,” Quinones said Monday. “This is the one way I could contribute to helping find my uncle.”

Some of those who have given DNA came forward, like Quinones, after learning about the identification effort in their desperate search for a loved one, others after the sheriff’s office called to say that remains that probably belonged to a family member had been found.

Mattern declined to say Tuesday how many victims ANDE’s technology has helped identify. Sheriff Kory Honea’s office did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

The fire was 70 percent contained Tuesday. Rain in the forecast for Wednesday through Thanksgiving weekend could aid in fighting the fire but could also bring flash floods and complicate efforts to recover remains.

Once DNA is extracted from the remains, it is placed in a vial that goes into a black machine that looks like a bulky computer printer. It takes just two hours to process the material and get a DNA profile; traditional methods can take days or weeks. If a relative’s DNA is already in the system, a match will pop up right away.

Mattern said it has been surprisingly easy to get DNA from remains, despite the devastating damage done by the flames.

“We went in with pretty measured expectations, we didn’t know what we were walking into,” she said. “We have a tremendous database now of the victims of the fire.”

Ruth Dickover, director of the forensic science graduate program at the University of California-Davis, said that scientists have long been able to extract DNA from bone — a process that involves pulverizing the bone — but things can become more complicated if the remains of multiple people are mixed together.

“What’s left may not give you a nice beautiful profile,” she said.

ANDE won a contract in

2009 to do research and development for federal agencies, and the company’s technology has been used in pilot programs for several years. Over the summer, it won FBI approval for use in accredited labs. Law enforcement agencies in Utah, New York and Miami have used the technology, as has the military.

This is the first time ANDE has helped identify victims after a natural disaster. The company has donated seven machines and about a dozen workers to the effort.

Sarah Warren drove an hour and a half from Redding on Monday to report her uncle, Devan Ruel, as missing. The sheriff’s office gave her a number to call about missing people, and when she called, she was told authorities would contact her if they needed her DNA, she said.

She said no one told her about the collection desk at the old Sears, so she returned home without providing one.

“I could have done that so easily, just to be safe,” she said.

Warren hadn’t talked to Ruel in about eight years and said the family did not have an address for him.

Edna Yuteve McConnell

July 3, 1939 - November 13, 2018

Long-time resident, E. Yuteve McConnell (Butch), 79 years old, passed away November 13, peacefully at home midst her family and beloved loyal companion “Moejo”, in Kenai, Alaska. She was born in Spokane, WA to George Malcolm and Anna May Lemley on July 3, 1939. She married Austin Dwight McConnell (Moe) in Albuquerque, NM on June 28, 1964, after a long distant year-long courtship. His mother told him to drive back and marry that girl, so he bought a station wagon, drove to WA from NM, picked up Yuteve and her life in Washington. They lived all over the country and landed in Alaska, where Moe started working in 1973 on the North Slope. They would retire to the Kenai Peninsula, where he bought and built her a home, everything in it was for her, a home she filled with love, and the rest is history!!

Moe was the love of her life; they were best friends through thick and thin. They raised children, camped, he taught her how to fish, how to drive a car and a boat, she taught him how to love and relax. Taking their children across country to travel and explore, to Mexico often for scuba diving during December, to Yellow Stone park, or boating and waterskiing. They travelled all over the USA for Moe’s work (her favorite city, New York), won dance competitions, she was always by his side. They shared commonalities like cooking great meals, solid entertainers, working hard for their family, and sharing love and laughter. There will always be memories shared from coast-to-coast of “Butch & Moe”. The loss of 2 adult children shed light on how solid their foundation was, built from love and dedication.

Yuteve was a dedicated fulltime mother when her children were at home and loyal wife. She was a manager and wine connoisseur for Brown Jug in Anchorage, Alaska in the 80’s, a bartender at the Rainbow bar in Kenai, Alaska the 2000’s, her favorite job!!! A mother of 7 children, in addition her and Moe raised their 2 grandchildren, Brittnay and Shanija Walters. She showed each child unconditional love, understanding and always had great advice; “always wear clean underwear”, “never give up” and “roll with the punches”.

A protective mother, yet encouraged independence and resilience. Allowing each to explore their own world, never interrupting their lives. She was never one to pick her children’s friends, treated them like her own children.

Gov.-elect Mike Dunleavy has previously voiced support for allowing the mine to work through the federal permitting process.

Gov. Bill Walker had requested earlier this year that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers halt an environmental review of the mine, arguing that its feasibility was not yet outlined.

“We’re very encouraged by

the election of the governorelect and of the results from the ballot measure campaign, really as a validation that Alaska has process, a fair process for reviewing projects,” Heatwole said.

The ballot measure rejected earlier this month would have set new state permitting standards for fish and wildlife habitat protections. Critics said it was far-reaching and could have a negative effect on development.

Pebble is asking people across the state to share their thoughts about the mine through a survey, and it’s planning to select four people to take the survey on a tour of the proposed site.

The Army Corps of Engineers is expected to publish a draft environmental impact statement on the project in January.

What Others Say

Alaska’s mental health treatment system is broken There can be no doubt that Alaska’s mental health care system is in crisis, struggling to cope with some of the greatest gaps in capacity and coverage in decades. At the state’s flagship Alaska Psychiatric Institute, almost half the rooms are empty, a problem that has persisted for several years. The consequences are tremendous, and damaging at both the personal and societal scales. And although Alaska is facing a host of pressing issues — a substantial budget deficit, the future of the Permanent Fund dividend and nation-highest rates of domestic violence and sexual assault — the state’s mental health services may be the most glaring, broken system facing Alaska. Gov.-elect Mike Dunleavy and the Legislature should make addressing it a top priority.

It’s not as though this is a new problem for the state. For years, the ADN’s reporters and columnist Charles Wohlforth have examined the breakdowns and failures that have led us to where we are today. But despite the acknowledged severity of the issues, which led to the September resignations of major figures charged with overseeing the state’s system, there has been little progress made — in fact, it’s easy to make the argument that things are worse now than at any point in recent memory. At least a half-dozen patients committed to the state’s care for mental health issues were sent to prison because of capacity problems at API. When patient treatment begins to resemble the “warehousing” model of asylums, there can be no denying that serious problems exist and must be addressed immediately.

So what has caused the degradation of Alaska’s mental health services? There are many factors, but two primary ones standout: organizational and managerial failures, as well as tight budgets. Although the state has tried to address organizational issues, most recently through the aforementioned resignations, there is little to show for the periodic shakeups: API’s issues have persisted for years. Also, the past two decades have seen atrophy in Alaska’s community mental health services, which has the compounding effect of increasing the burden on API, as well as on hospitals and other care facilities not designed for chronic mental health treatment.

The failures within Alaska’s mental health care system are not only distressing with regard to our goal of helping those in need of services to maintain their health and dignity, they are tremendously costly to our state. Facilities such as hospitals and prisons, which have neither the capacity nor the mission to provide chronic, long-term mental health care, are being pressed into service. The halfoperative API can’t come near addressing the mental health needs of Anchorage’s population, much less the many remote communities without such services. As a result, those with unaddressed mental health issues often experience homelessness, and some are the perpetrators and victims of crimes. They are more likely to abuse substances because of their unmet health needs. All of these factors drive other major, expensive problems our state is struggling to address.

What can and should be done to turn things around?

The Alaska Mental Health Trust has a role to play.

Although the group does not have the resources to stand up community mental health services on its own, it can and should be the intermediary between the state and potential providers, identifying the roadblocks that have caused the failure of community services and working with state policymakers to address them.

For its part, the state must do everything in its power to get API running at full capacity. The facility has 80 beds; at last count, only 45 were occupied because of staff shortages. Incoming Gov. Mike Dunleavy and his Commissioner of Health and Social Services should make it a top priority to make sure the facility is fully staffed and that previous safety issues have been addressed, issuing an emergency declaration if necessary. In the longer term, the state must work to facilitate the expansion of community mental health services, so that patients can receive treatment in their home communities and be supported by those who love and care for them.

It is a moral imperative that we do better for Alaskans in need of mental health services. Our system is broken, and we have been reaping the consequences. We have felt their tremendous toll on all of our communities. We can abide the status quo no longer.

Thanksgiving reality and fantasy

Little is known about the first Thanksgiving Day, so we can only speculate about what really happened. What we do know is that the feast probably wasn’t eaten in November, but was most likely a party to celebrate the fall harvest, which would mean it probably took place in late September and lasted about three days. Then, as now, we can surmise that late September was the start of the retailer’s Yuletide marketing season, and we can assume that the three days included the actual Thanksgiving feast on Thursday. Then there was Black Friday, so named because retailers count on the shopping rush on that day to see their ledger sheets for the year go into the black. So the colonists traipsed on down to the Walmart Plymouth Rock to get the great doorbuster deals. Saturday, of course, was Cyber Saturday. Or was it Monday?

The exact day is lost in history. That plus the fact that Al Gore hadn’t invented the internet yet.

The pilgrims were giving thanks and were joined by the Indian tribes that were here first and had made them feel welcome. There was none of that nativist talk describing the Mayflower as part of a “caravan” menacing those who were already here. None of their leaders bellowing “build the wall!” to protect this country from those gang members and rapists who surely were with them, simply because they were outsiders or had different-color skin or talked a different language or were

just, well, different.

None of that, possibly because there was no country.

Comedian Stan Freberg once suggested that the menu was supposed to include stuffed eagle, and that the turkey Bob Franken was supposed to be the decorative centerpiece. But someone messed up, and the rest is history, as told by Stan Freberg.

It’s doubtful that anybody gets bent out of shape by that bit of Freberg humor, although the superpatriots a generation ago were incensed. However, ultraconservatives of this era have moved on. An issue that consumes them these days is immigration. Interesting that it wasn’t such a preoccupation nearly 400 years ago, but we’ve badly regressed since. Back then, the colonists — those first “huddled masses yearning to be free” — were welcomed by the hometowners. These days, newcomers are decidedly unwelcome, at least by haters.

Look no further than their chief instigator Donald Trump. (I’ll let you insert your own turkey jokes here. I won’t do it. This is a high-class operation.) Every chance he gets, he cackles (sorry, I couldn’t help myself) about the “invasion” of “rapists,” “murderers” and “drug dealers” marching to our borders, threatening the way of

life for America. No Statue of Liberty for them, particularly if they come from “shthole” countries. We’ve replaced many of our traditions.

Who could have possibly imagined that we’d develop such a mercenary near-holiday as Black Friday. Who could have conceived that the welcome for the Europeans back then would degenerate into the tribalism we witness today? “Tribalism” in modern times is synonymous with “bigotry.” It’s many of those white European ancestors who are screaming the loudest, insisting we preserve their culture or, put another way, “Make America Great Again” with voter suppression and other ways to deny full democracy to all our citizens, including Native Americans.

Who knew that generations later, the indigenous ones would be banished to desolate reservations, or ridiculed by sports teams, like the Washington football franchise? For that matter, who could possibly fantasize in our wildest dreams that we’d so degenerate that we could elect a professional bigot to lead us?

Let’s face it, though: Donald Trump has enhanced that great tradition, the bitter argument over politics at the Thanksgiving dinner that leads to mashed potato and stuffing fights. For the record, folks, those food items should be eaten, not thrown. But hey — that’s progress, pilgrim. Or what passes for it.

Ohio Democrat says she won’t challenge Pelosi for speaker

By KEVIN FREKING Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Democratic Rep. Marcia Fudge, the top potential rival to Nancy Pelosi for House speaker, dropped out of the running Tuesday, delivering a blow to efforts to topple the California Democrat.

Fudge announced her decision just as Pelosi said she was naming the Ohio congresswoman as incoming chair of a newly revived elections subcommittee that will delve into voting rights access, a top priority of the new Democratic majority. The move also came the same day Fudge faced questions over her past support for a man now suspected of stabbing his ex-wife.

Her consideration to run for speaker, Fudge said, was in part to “ensure diversity, equity and inclusion at all levels of the House.” She was “now confident that we will move forward together,” she said in a statement.

As a former chairwoman of the influential Congressional Black Caucus, Fudge noted she was assured by Pelosi assured that black women, in particular, “will have a seat at the decision-making table.”

Pelosi’s move to revive the elections subcommittee of the House Administration Committee is an example of the reach of the leader’s office to dole out plum assignments to lawmakers — or withhold them — as she works to shore up votes to become speaker.

Pelosi said Fudge has been a “driving force in our voter protection efforts” and in — Anchorage Daily News, Nov. 18 her new position the congresswoman will

“play a critical role in our Democratic Majority’s efforts to ensure access to the ballot box for all Americans.”

Pelosi kick-started the committee that had been dormant for the past few years under the GOP majority and handed the gavel to Fudge.

The turn of events comes as Democratic lawmakers are on Thanksgiving recess ahead of a closed-door vote next week on new leadership.

Democrats are expected to vote Pelosi as their nominee for speaker, but it’s unclear if she has enough support from her ranks when the full House votes in January.

Pelosi’s bid was boosted Tuesday by praise from former President Barack Obama.

Obama said when history is written, Pelosi will be remembered as “one of the most effective legislative leaders that this country has ever seen.” He called her an “extraordinary partner” during his presidency.

“Nancy is not always the best on a cable show, or with the quick soundbite or what have you, but her skill, tenacity, toughness, vision is remarkable,” Obama said on “The Axe Files” podcast.

At least 16 Democrats have signed on to a letter in favor of new leadership, and several incoming freshmen lawmakers have said they won’t vote for Pelosi.

But Pelosi has several weeks over the holiday season to listen to lawmakers and may be able to shore up her support.

Earlier Tuesday, Fudge came under scrutiny for her past support of Lance Ma-

son. She had been among several officials who wrote letters of support over recent years for Mason, a former county judge and state senator who pleaded guilty in 2015 to beating Aisha Fraser Mason so badly that her face required reconstructive surgery.

Fraser Mason, a schoolteacher and mother, was fatally stabbed Saturday.

Lance Mason is a suspect in the slaying and is likely to be charged, authorities said Monday.

Police said in court documents the exjudge was fleeing the scene of the homicide when he slammed his SUV into a patrol cruiser.

Fudge said in a statement Tuesday that her efforts to vouch for Lance Mason three years ago were based on “the person I knew for almost 30 years.”

“The person who committed these crimes is not the Lance Mason familiar to me. They were horrific crimes, and I condemn them,” Fudge said. “I and everyone who knew Aisha are mourning her loss.”

Dozens of letters were written on Mason’s behalf between his August 2014 arrest for the first attack on Fraser Mason and when his disciplinary case went before the Ohio Supreme Court in October 2017. Judge, who worked with Mason, and prominent lawyers were among those who wrote in support of Mason. Cleveland 19 News tweeted a copy of a letter Fudge wrote to the local prosecutor.

“Lance accepts full responsibility for his actions and has assured me that something like this will never happen again,” Fudge wrote in the letter.

US judge stalls enforcement of Trump asylum restrictions

Pentagon says troops at US border to cost about $210 million

By NOMAAN MERCHANT Associated Press

By ROBERT BURNS AP National Security Writer

HOUSTON — A judge has ordered the U.S. government not to enforce a ban on asylum for people who cross the southern border illegally, another court setback for the Trump administration’s efforts to impose new immigration restrictions without congressional approval.

U.S. District Judge Jon Tigar agreed Monday with legal groups that immediately sued after President Donald Trump issued a Nov. 9 proclamation saying anyone who crossed the southern border between official ports of entry would be ineligible for asylum. The administration argued that caravans of migrants approaching the southern border made the new restrictions immediately necessary.

“Whatever the scope of the President’s authority, he may not rewrite the immigration laws to impose a condition that Congress has expressly forbidden,” said Tigar, a nominee of former President Barack Obama.

Trump stopped family separations at the border earlier this year after a global outcry, but it was a federal judge who ruled the administration had to reuni-

WASHINGTON — Using thousands of military troops to help secure the Southwest border will cost an estimated $210 million under current plans, the Pentagon told Congress on Tuesday, even as questions arose about the scope and duration of the controversial mission.

The total includes $72 million for approximately 5,900 active-duty troops providing support to Customs and Border Protection, plus $138 million so far for 2,100 National Guard troops who have been performing a separate border mission since April, according to a report sent to Congress on Tuesday but not released by the Pentagon.

A copy of the report was obtained by The Associated Press.

After the AP published its story the Pentagon released a statement confirming the active-duty portion of the deployments is estimated at $72 million. It did not mention the $138 million in National Guard costs.

The total would grow beyond the current combined estimate of $210 million if the active-duty mission is extended beyond the current completion date of Dec. 15. Officials said

fy the families. Another judge rejected the administration’s request to try to detain migrant families in long-term facilities.

Monday’s ruling remains in effect for one month, barring an appeal. In limiting asylum, Trump used the same powers he used to impose a travel ban —

the third try was ultimately upheld by the Supreme Court.

A joint statement by Homeland Security and the Justice Department said the Supreme Court had already shown the president had the legal right to restrict asylum.

“Our asylum system is bro-

ken, and it is being abused by tens of thousands of meritless claims every year,” the departments said. “We look forward to continuing to defend the Executive Branch’s legitimate and well-reasoned exercise of its authority to address the crisis at our southern border.”

Congress to probe Ivanka Trump’s email use WASHINGTON (AP) — Republicans and Democrats on Capitol Hill will be scrutinizing Ivanka Trump’s personal email use in the White House in light of new revelations that she sent hundreds of messages about government business from that account last year.

On Tuesday, the Republican chairmen of Senate and House oversight committees — as well as a top House Democrat who will be wielding a gavel when his party takes power in January — called for the White

House to provide more information about the email account and the nature of the messages President Donald Trump’s daughter exchanged.

The moves renewed Republican-led congressional probes that had languished since last year when reports by Politico revealed that Ivanka Trump’s husband, Jared Kushner, and other White House officials had been using private email for government purposes in possible violation of the Presidential Records Act and other federal

record-keeping laws.

The issue resurfaced this week when The Washington Post reported that the president’s daughter, while a top White House adviser, sent hundreds of emails about government business from a personal email account last year.

The emails were sent to White House aides, Cabinet members and Ivanka Trump’s assistants, many in violation of public records rules, according to The Post.

The report prompted Sen.

Ron Johnson, who chairs the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs committee, and Rep. Trey Gowdy, the outgoing chair of the House Oversight and Government Reform committee, to send letters to the White House requesting a written response and briefing.

They are asking for the White House to provide an accounting of the official emails exchanged on Ivanka Trump’s personal account and to certify that the emails had been preserved according with federal law.

Gov’t questions unfair student loan practices

By KEN SWEET AP Business Writer

NEW YORK — One of the nation’s largest student loan servicing companies may have driven tens of thousands of borrowers struggling with their debts into higher-cost repayment plans.

That’s the finding of a Department of Education audit of practices at Navient Corp., the nation’s third-largest student loan servicing company.

The conclusions of the 2017 audit, which until now have been kept from the public and were obtained by The Associated Press, appear to support federal and state lawsuits that accuse Navient of boosting its profits by steering some borrowers into the high-cost plans without discussing options that would have been less costly in the long run.

The education department has not shared the audit’s findings with the plaintiffs in the lawsuits. In fact, even while knowing of its conclusions, the department repeatedly argued that state and other federal authorities do not have jurisdiction over Navient’s business practices.

“The existence of this audit

makes the Department of Education’s position all the more disturbing,” said Aaron Ament, president of the National Student Legal Defense Network, who worked for the Department of Education under President Barack Obama.

The AP received a copy of the audit and other documents from the office of Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Massachusetts, who has been a vocal critic of Navient and has publicly supported the lawsuits against the company as well as questioning the policies of the Department of Education, currently run by President Trump’s Secretary of Education, Betsy DeVos. Warren is considered a potential presidential candidate in 2020.

Navient disputed the audit’s conclusions in its response to the Department of Education and has denied the allegations in the lawsuits. One point the company makes in its defense is that its contract with the education department doesn’t require its customer service representatives to mention all options available to the borrower.

“This (audit), when viewed as a whole, as well as dozens of other audits and reviews, show that Navient overwhelmingly performs in accordance with

please join us for our annual

Introduction to Christmas Friday & Sat, Nov. 23 & 24, (10-6)

program rules while consistently helping borrowers choose the right options for their circumstances,” said Paul Hartwick, a company spokesman.

However, the five states suing Navient — Illinois, Pennsylvania, Washington, California and Mississippi — say the behavior breaks their laws regarding consumer protection.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau says in its own lawsuit the practices are unfair, deceptive and abusive and break federal consumer protection laws.

Of the five states that filed lawsuits against Navient, Washington, Illinois and Pennsylvania said they were aware that an audit existed, but did not receive copies from the Department of Education. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau declined to comment on whether it had a copy of the report.

The Department of Education said withholding the report was intentional, repeating the argument it has made in court

and in public that only it has jurisdiction over student loan servicing issues, through its Federal Student Aid division, or FSA, which oversees student loans.

“FSA performed the review as part of its own contract oversight, not for the benefit of other agencies,” said Liz Hill, a Department of Education spokeswoman.

When student borrowers run into difficulties making payments, they can be offered forbearance, which allows them to delay payments for a set period of time. But under a forbearance plan, in most instances, the loan continues to accumulate interest and becomes a more expensive option in the long run.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau alleges in its lawsuit against Navient that between 2010 and 2015 Navient’s behavior added nearly $4 billion in interest to student borrowers’ loans through the overuse of forbearance. It is a figure that Navient disputes.

an extension appeared likely but had not yet been agreed upon.

The Pentagon also was working on a potential adjustment to the mission that would give the active-duty troops who are operating in Texas, Arizona and California the authority to defend Customs and Border Protection personnel if necessary. The troops, who include military police, are currently authorized to defend themselves.

About 2,800 of the activeduty troops are in South Texas, far from the main migrant caravan in Tijuana, Mexico, south of California. The movement of the Central American migrants into Mexico in October was the stated reason that President Donald Trump ordered the military to provide support for Customs and Border Protection.

Trump, who called the migrant caravan an “invasion,” has been accused by critics, including some retired military officers, of using the military deployment as a political tool in the run-up to the Nov. 6 midterm elections.

Sen. Dianne Feinstein, a California Democrat, said Tuesday the Pentagon’s cost report shows the mission was a “charade.”

Ex-MSU president charged with lying to police about Nassar

By DAVID EGGERT Associated Press

LANSING, Mich. — ExMichigan State University President Lou Anna Simon was charged Tuesday with lying to police during an investigation of the handling of serial sexual abuser Larry Nassar — the third current or former campus official other than Nassar to face criminal charges in the scandal.

Simon, who stepped down under pressure in January, spoke with state police investigators on May 1. She is accused of making two false and misleading statements — that she was unaware of the nature of a sexual misconduct complaint that sparked the school’s 2014 Title IX probe of Nassar, and that she only knew a sports medicine doctor, not Nassar himself, was under investigation at that time.

If convicted of two felony and two misdemeanor counts of lying to a peace officer, the 71-year-old Simon faces up to four years in prison. The Mason resident is scheduled to be arraigned on Monday in Eaton County near Lansing.

One of her attorneys, Lee

Silver, called the charges “completely baseless” and said he had not seen a “shred of evidence” to support them.

“In my opinion, the real crime here is that these charges are even being brought,” he said. “We are confident that when we have our day in court, Dr. Simon will be exonerated and these charges will be proven to have no merit.”

University spokeswoman Emily Guerrant said Simon, who stayed on at MSU to do research while preparing for a return to teaching, is taking an immediate unpaid leave of absence from her $750,000-ayear job “to focus on her legal situation.”

The charges were filed by special independent counsel Bill Forsyth, who was appointed by Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette to investigate Michigan State’s handling of Nassar. Forsyth declined comment.

Simon is the fifth person to be criminally charged in the wake of Nassar’s convictions for molesting young female athletes under the guise of treatment. Numerous other people have lost their jobs or have been sued.

Backlash at Chinese university

By DAKE KANG Associated Press

BEIJING — A Chinese university’s plan to conduct a blanket search of student and staff electronic devices has come under fire, illustrating the limits of the population’s tolerance for surveillance and raising the prospect that tactics used on Muslim minorities may be creeping into the rest of the country.

The Guilin University of Electronic Technology is reconsidering a search of cellphones, computers, external hard disks and USB drives after a copy of the order leaked online and triggered such an intense backlash that it drew rare criticism in state-run newspapers.

Searches of electronics are common in Xinjiang in China’s far west, a heavily Muslim region that has been turned into a virtual police state to tamp down unrest. They are unheard of in most other areas, including where the school is located in the southern Guangxi region, a popular tourist destination known for spectacular scenery, not violence or terrorism.

That’s why the planned checks worry some.

“Xinjiang has emerged as China’s surveillance laboratory,” said James Leibold, a scholar of Chinese ethnic poli-

tics and national identity at La Trobe University in Australia.

“It is unsurprising that some of the methods first pioneered in China’s west are now being rolled out in other regions.”

Under President Xi Jinping, the government has in recent years tried to tighten controls over what the public sees and says online and stepped up political oversight of universities.

Sometimes, these measures have run into a new generation of Chinese accustomed to greater freedoms, sparking public outcry and occasionally government retreat.

The leaked notice in Guilin warned that hostile domestic groups and foreign powers are “wantonly spreading illicit and illegal videos” through the internet. It said the search for violent, terrorist, reactionary and obscene content, which was to be conducted this month, was necessary to resist and combat extremist recordings that it called mentally harmful.

The order triggered a public uproar last week.

Posts on China’s Weibo microblogging site with hashtags on schools checking electronic devices were viewed nearly 80 million times. Users voiced privacy concerns, comparing the measure to computer chips inserted in brains and the George Orwell novel “1984.”

In this photo a computer screen shows the leaked online post from Guilin University of Electronic Technology warning of “hostile domestic and foreign powers” that were “wantonly spreading illicit and illegal videos” through the internet in Beijing, China. (AP Photo/Ng Han Guan)

Then came critical editorials in state-run publications saying the notice could violate Chinese constitutional protection of the right to communicate freely and have those communications remain confidential.

“If colleges and universities check the phones, computers, and hard disks of teachers and students, they’re suspected of infringing on communication freedom and privacy,” said an editorial in the Beijing Youth Daily. “Those responsible at the school should be held accountable, as they had a great negative impact on the school’s image.”

Administrators told another state-owned publication, “The Paper,” that the search had not yet been carried out, and that they were considering reducing its scope. University and local education ministry officials referred questions to a media office, which did not answer repeated phone calls.

Weibo, while not a government body, ran into hot water in April when it said it would censor content related to gay issues on its microblog. The company backpedaled under intense criticism, including from state-run publications.

Possible Russian president of Interpol raises alarm in West

By ANGELA CHARLTON and DANICA KIRKA Associated Press

LONDON — Interpol is facing a pivotal — some say possibly fatal — moment in its history as members decide whether to hand its presidency to a man who represents Vladimir Putin’s Russia.

Kremlin critics fear they could soon face arrest wherever they go. Western governments worry that Russia could use the post to undermine the rule of law.

Interpol, which elects a new president Wednesday , has weathered many challenges in its 95 years. While Hollywood has portrayed it as a hive of swashbuckling agents, in reality it’s an organization sometimes tangled in red tape and clashing geopolitical interests.

Nazis took it over in the 1930s, and authoritarian governments have long tried to use it to hunt down fugitive dissenters.

But the latest storm of criticism comes at an exceptional time — just as Russia is trying to expand its global clout and as some powerful countries are questioning whether they need multilateral organizations like Interpol at all.

Interpol’s general assembly is choosing the agency’s new president at a meeting in Dubai where the front-runner is Alexander Prokopchuk, a general in Russia’s Interior Ministry who is currently an Interpol vice

president. Interpol’s interim president, South Korea’s Kim Jong Yang, is also seeking the post.

Two prominent Kremlin critics warned Tuesday that electing a high-placed Russian would undermine the international law enforcement agency and politicize police cooperation across borders.

Bill Browder, who runs an investment fund that had once operated in Moscow, and oligarch-turned-dissident Mikhail Khodorkovsky told reporters in London that Putin has tried to use Interpol to hunt down critics such as themselves. Having a Russian lead the agency could intensify such efforts to silence dissent, they said.

Activists argue that the organization needs to increase recent efforts at muscular reform, and this won’t happen if Prokopchuk becomes president, because of his ties to Putin.

“It was his government that organized a terrorist attack in the U.K. using chemical weapons in Salisbury. It was his government that shot down MH17, killing 298 innocent individuals. It was his government that cheated and hacked in elections in the United States and Europe,” Browder said of Putin.

“To put his representative in charge of the most important international crime-fighting organization is like putting the mafia in charge.”

To Moscow, the complaints are all part of a Western-led

campaign to weaken a resurgent Russia.

Russia denies accusations of foreign interference and announced new charges against Browder this week in a longrunning legal battle against him. Russian Interior Ministry spokesman Irina Volk accused critics Tuesday of running a “campaign to discredit” Prokopchuk, calling him a respected professional.

Browder has pressed for sanctions against Russian officials charged with human rights abuses after his former lawyer died in custody. Khodorkovsky, a former oil tycoon, spent a decade in prison after exhibiting political ambitions. Both said their places in the public eye would make them poor targets for abuse, adding that they were motivated to speak out because many other campaigners who are less well-known would be silenced if governments are allowed to export repression.

The White House came out Tuesday against the election of Prokopchuk, with National Security Council spokesman Garrett Marquis saying that “the Russian government abuses Interpol’s processes to harass its political opponents.” He said the U.S. “strongly endorses” Kim.

Around the World European zoos to send critically endangered rhinos to Rwanda DVUR KRALOVE, Czech Republic — Wildlife parks in three European countries on Tuesday announced they are joining forces to send critically endangered eastern black rhinos back to their natural habitat in Rwanda, where the entire rhino population was wiped out during the genocide in the 1990s.

Three female and two male rhinos from the Dvur Kralove zoo in the Czech Republic, Flamingo Land in Britain and Ree Park Safari in Denmark will first meet in the Czech park to get used to each other and get ready for their transport to the Akagera National Park in eastern Rwanda in May or June.

It will be the biggest single transport of rhinos from Europe to Africa, officials said.

There are only about 900 of the subspecies remaining in the world, 90 of them in 22 European zoos.

“Rwanda is a country that suffered a lot in the past but it’s a safe place now,” Dvur Kralove director Premysl Rabas said on Tuesday.

His zoo has 16 eastern black rhinos, the largest group in Europe.

“Horrible things took place (in Rwanda) in the 1990s,” Rabas said. “And (they) had an impact on the animals.”

More than 500,000 people were killed in the genocide by Hutu extremists against the Tutsi minority and Hutu moderates in 1994.

The conflict also devastated the entire population of lions in Rwanda. A separate effort is underway to restore their presence in the country.

The five rhinos that will inhabit a peninsula of some 3,000 hectares will initially be kept separate from 18 eastern black rhinos that were transported to a different part of the park several months ago from South Africa.

Once both groups settle there, they will be allowed to interbreed.

“Their genetic variability will widen by that,” Rabas said.

His zoo has successfully returned four rhinos to neighboring Tanzania in recent years, and five have since been born there.

WHO says Iraq river pollution toxic to fish BAGHDAD — The World Health Organizations said Tuesday that laboratory tests completed after a shocking fish die-off in Iraq’s Euphrates River show the water is contaminated with high levels of bacteria, heavy metals, and ammonia.

Fishermen were stunned to find that hundreds of tons of carp had died suddenly in their river cages earlier this month in a discovery that stirred national anxieties about water pollution. Carp is a staple of the Iraqi diet.

The WHO said the river pollution was toxic for fish but posed no threat to humans. The agency said it tested water samples in its Amman laboratory in response to a request by Iraq’s Ministry of Health and Environment.

It said it was conducting a second investigation to see whether a viral infection killed the fish.

Today in History Today is Wednesday, Nov. 21, the 325th day of 2018. There are 40 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Nov. 21, 1980, 87 people died in a fire at the MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada.

On this date: In 1789, North Carolina became the 12th state to ratify the U.S. Constitution.

In 1922, Rebecca L. Felton, a Georgia Democrat, was sworn in as the first woman to serve in the U.S. Senate; her term, the result of an interim appointment, ended the following day as Walter F. George, the winner of a special election, took office.

In 1927, picketing strikers at the Columbine Mine in northern Colorado were fired on by state police; six miners were killed.

In 1931, the Universal horror film “Frankenstein,” starring Boris Karloff as the monster and Colin Clive as his creator, was first released.

In 1967, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Air Quality Act. In 1969, the Senate voted down the Supreme Court nomination of Clement F. Haynsworth, 55-45, the first such rejection since 1930.

In 1979, a mob attacked the U-S Embassy in Islamabad, Pakistan, killing two Americans.

In 1985, U.S. Navy intelligence analyst Jonathan Jay Pollard was arrested, accused of spying for Israel. (Pollard later pleaded guilty to espionage and was sentenced to life in prison; he was released on parole on Nov. 20, 2015.)

In 1992, a three-day tornado outbreak that struck 13 states began in the Houston area before spreading to the Midwest and eastern U.S.; 26 people were killed. Sen. Bob Packwood, R-Ore., issued an apology but refused to discuss allegations that he’d made unwelcome sexual advances toward ten women over the years. (Faced with a threat of expulsion, Packwood ended up resigning from the Senate in 1995.)

In 1995, Balkan leaders meeting in Dayton, Ohio, initialed a peace plan to end three and a-half years of ethnic fighting in Bosnia-Herzegovina.

In 1997, U.N. arms inspectors returned to Iraq after Saddam Hussein’s three-week standoff with the United Nations over the presence of Americans on the team.

In 2001, Ottilie (AH’-tih-lee) Lundgren, a 94-year-old resident of Oxford, Conn., died of inhalation anthrax; she was the apparent last victim of a series of anthrax attacks carried out through the mail system.

Ten years ago: Wall Street staged a comeback, with the major indexes jumping more than 5 percent and the Dow Jones industrials surging nearly 500 points. Somali pirates released a hijacked Greek-owned tanker, MV Genius, with all 19 crew members safe and the oil cargo intact after payment of a ransom. (The ship had been seized almost two months earlier.) Madonna and Guy Ritchie were granted a preliminary decree of divorce by a London court.

Five years ago: Sweeping aside a century of precedent, Democrats took a chunk out of the Senate’s hallowed filibuster tradition, clearing the way for speedy confirmation of controversial appointments made by President Barack Obama; Republicans warned Democrats would regret their actions once political fortunes were reversed and they could no longer block appointments made by a GOP president. Fifty-four people were killed in a supermaket roof collapse in Riga, Latvia. Three women were freed after being held captive 30 years in a south London home.

One year ago: President Donald Trump, who’d been silent for more than a week about the sexual assault allegations against Alabama Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore, discounted those allegations and said voters must not support Moore’s “liberal” rival. Former teen pop idol David Cassidy, star of the 1970s sitcom “The Partridge Family,” died at the age of 67; he’d announced earlier in the year that he had been diagnosed with dementia. Zimbabwe’s 93-year-old president Robert Mugabe resigned; he was facing impeachment proceedings and had been placed under house arrest by the military.

How times change 1937 TO 2018 I was born on a small farm at the end of the Depression in 1937. My first memories are sitting in a high chair beside a big black coal-wood stove that Dad put corn cobs in first to start it.

First memories of eating anything was Mom’s warm biscuits with butter and jam. Pancakes and bacon.

Fried chicken and mashed potatoes.

Dad’s oatmeal. Popcorn with butter and bacon grease on it. Mom’s cakes and cookies and her canned peaches with cream and sugar. Dad would fix him a big bowl of peaches and share them with me. So good!

I remember Mom scrubbing the worn-out kitchen linoleum on her hands and knees every Saturday.

Washing clothes on Monday and ironing on Tuesday. The smell of roast beef in a cast iron Dutch oven cooking all day in the old cook stove oven.

Oh, and yes, her wonderful chicken noodle soup with REAL homemade egg noodles. Homemade bread with real butter that melted into the bread because the bread was still warm.

The smell of fresh sheets on the bed after wash day. Wash day Monday was not over until the beds were made after washing, hanging out the laundry in all kinds of weather, bringing in the clothes that were sometimes frozen stiff and drying them in the kitchen. They smelled so good! All the new soaps and powders and detergents of this modern era cannot replicate the smell of freshoff-the-line clothes. And how good I slept tucked into fresh-smelling bed clothes.

The Ice man!! Yes he was real in my day!! We looked forward to him driving in the driveway, getting out of his “ice truck” with a ice pick in hand. He was not murdering monster; he was the ice man that delivered ice to the ice box located in the kitchen. His big, old wicked-looking ice tongs pinched the big block of ice as he carried it into the house to place in the bottom of the ice box to keep the milk, cream and butter from spoiling. On hot summer days he came twice a week, but most of the time he came once a week. As kids, we would line up by the ice truck and wait for him to hack off a big sliver of ice and hand it to us to slurp and lick on. Our biggest regret was he only came in the summertime.

Oh my goodness, what a treat! He See ANNIE, page A8

Great glazed chicken is possible, thanks to a beer can

By AMERICA’S TEST KITCHEN

Most glazed roast chicken recipes offer some variation on these instructions: Roast a chicken as you would normally, painting on a sweet glaze 15 to 30 minutes before the bird is done.

It sounds simple, but following these recipes actually turns up a host of troubles, as the problems inherent in roasting chicken (dry breast meat, flabby skin, big deposits of fat under the skin) are compounded by the problems of a glaze (won’t stick to the meat, burns in patches, introduces moisture to already flabby skin).

Yet we know that great glazed chicken is possible. We set out to develop a method for evenly glazed roast chicken with crisp skin and moist, tender meat.

Short of installing meat hooks or a rotisserie in the oven, what could we do? A vertical roaster, which cooks chicken standing up, was possible, but did who wants another gadget in the kitchen? Then we remembered a simpler alternative, found right in the fridge: a beer can.

We’ve had great success placing a beer can in the chicken cavity and standing it upright on the grill, which allows heat to circulate freely so that the bird cooks evenly from all sides.

Why not bring this popular technique from the barbecue circuit into your oven?

GLAZED ROAST CHICKEN Servings: 4-6 Start to finish: 2 1/2 hours For best results, use a 16-ounce can of beer. Don’t use a 12-ounce can, as it will not support the chicken’s weight.

Make sure it is made from safe, fireproof materials, too, and avoid shrinkwrapped plastic labels.

A vertical poultry roaster can be used in place of the beer can, but we recommend using only a model that can be placed in a roasting pan. Taste your marmalade before using it; if it is overly sweet, reduce the amount of maple syrup by 2 tablespoons.

For the chicken: Place chicken, breast side down, on cutting board.

Using tip of sharp knife, make four 1-inch incisions along back of chicken. Using your fingers, gently loosen skin covering breast and thighs. Using metal skewer, poke 15 to 20 holes in fat deposits on top of breast and thighs. Tuck wings behind back.

Chicken: Combine salt, pepper, and baking 1 (6- to 7-pound) whole chicken, powder in bowl. Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Sprinkle salt mixture giblets discarded evenly all over chicken. Rub mix2 1/2 teaspoons salt ture in with your hands, coating en1 teaspoon pepper tire surface evenly. Transfer chicken, 1 teaspoon baking powder breast side up, to wire rack set in 1 (16-ounce) can beer rimmed baking sheet and refrigerate, Glaze: uncovered, for at least 30 minutes or up to 1 hour. Meanwhile, adjust oven 1 teaspoon cornstarch rack to lowest position and heat oven 1/2 cup maple syrup to 325 F. 1/2 cup orange marmalade Open beer can and pour out (or 1/4 cup cider vinegar drink) about half of liquid. Place can 2 tablespoons unsalted butter in middle of roasting pan and spray 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard lightly with vegetable oil spray. Slide 1 teaspoon pepper chicken over can so drumsticks reach

down to bottom of can, chicken stands upright, and breast is perpendicular to bottom of pan. Roast chicken until skin starts to turn golden and breast registers 140 F, 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours.

Carefully remove pan from oven and increase oven temperature to 500 F. For the glaze: While chicken cooks, stir cornstarch and 1 tablespoon water in bowl until no lumps remain. Bring maple syrup, marmalade, vinegar, butter, mustard, and pepper to simmer in medium saucepan over mediumlow heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced to 3/4 cup, 6 to 8 minutes. Slowly whisk in cornstarch mixture; return to simmer and cook for 1 minute. Remove saucepan from heat.

When oven temperature reaches 500 F, pour 1 1/2 cups water into roasting pan and return pan to oven.

Roast until chicken skin is evenly browned and crispy, breast registers 160 F, and thighs register 175 F, 24 to 30 minutes. (Check chicken halfway

through roasting; if top is becoming too dark, place 7-inch square piece of aluminum foil over neck and wingtips of chicken and continue to roast. If pan begins to smoke and sizzle, add additional 1/2 cup water to pan.)

Brush chicken with 1/4 cup glaze and continue to roast until browned and sticky, about 5 minutes longer.

(If glaze starts to stiffen, return to low heat to soften.) Carefully remove pan from oven; transfer chicken, still on can, to carving board; and brush with 1/4 cup glaze. Let chicken rest for 20 minutes.

While chicken rests, strain juices from pan through fine-mesh strainer into fat -separator; let liquid settle for 5 minutes. Whisk 1/2 cup defatted juices into remaining 1/4 cup glaze in saucepan and set over low heat. Using 2 large wads of paper towels, carefully transfer chicken from can to carving board. Carve chicken, adding any accumulated juices to sauce. Serve, passing sauce separately.

Because we had Betsy the milk cow, and fresh eggs from the chicken house, we had cream and eggs for the custard mom would make for the ice cream. We certainly had to be patient and wait and wait for the final product. We earned it too — Dad made us take turns turning the crank, no matter our age. If we were not cranking fast enough he would place his hand over ours and help crank. I think we appreciated that wonderful fresh ice cream even better. Dad always had a grin and a comment or two about how he loved ice cream and made a big party out of it. We all got a lick off the beaters after the ice cream was done, but Dad finished it!!

Sunday night Dad would tell Mom, “You just sit still Loretta, I will fix supper.” He would get out the big cast iron skillet and the big dish pan. He put bacon grease and sometimes lard in the skillet and plop on the lid, wait for the first pop of a kernel, and then he would gently shake it until he heard no more popping.

He poured it into the dish pan and popped one or two more skillets of corn. Then, in most important details, as if he invented the recipe for the butter for the corn, he put in a very generous amount of real butter and bacon grease into the skillet. He let the butter “slightly brown” and poured it over the popped corn, as someone stirred it around. The last thing he did before we could eat any of it was generously salt it and scoop out big cereal bowls for each of us. Mom got the first bowl. On the table were big red delicious apples, freshly washed that someone — usually ME — fetched out of the basement. They were picked from Grandpa and Grandma’s cherry-apple orchard about a mile from our farm, and stored in the basement coal room for the winter.

That was our Sunday night supper. Dad grew to corn and was very proud of his crops.

Sunday dinner after church was fried chicken that we had caught and beheaded and plucked the feathers the day before.

It was washed and cut up and “rested” in the ice box until the preparations for Sunday dinner. Mom fried her chicken in bacon grease and lard or butter. Of course it was very very good.

Mashed potatoes did not get mashed by an electric beater; we had a potato masher that took skill to get the potatoes smooth and buttery.

Mom’s gravy was excellent. Chicken grease dripping, flour stirred into until just right, then she added milk and cream and stirred and stirred until it was gravy. Salt and pepper was added and pour into a big bowl. It was the last thing that went on the table before we all sat down to eat. We had our appointed places.

Uncle Guy, when he lived with us, sat at one end of the table and Dad at the other end. We made sure the biscuits were placed at Uncle Guy’s end. Dad passed everything else as Uncle Guy took two biscuits, split them and waited for the gravy to be passed. I am sure you have heard me say that Uncle guy would wait until everyone was through with the dinner and then stutter a little, asking Mom if he could have the last biscuit. Mom would nod and he would reach for the last of the gravy. He ate it like it was his last meal on earth and it was his dessert.

Thinking back on memories of the past, people of my age have seen many things that have changed for the better — (sometimes!!). I would never in my wildest dreams thought I would see everyone walking around with a phone in their hand — including me! Airplanes had propellers; now they are jets.

During World War II the jets flew over our house from Cheyenne to Denver and we would pile out of the house or barn, stand in the yard and wave at the formation flying over. It was the hit of our day.

Chicken was fried chicken — no chicken fingers in those days! I never ate a taco or a burrito until the ’60s. Mom never made a taco or a burrito. We never heard of yogurt. Potato chips we plain and no off-the-wall flavors. We drank buttermilk, almost daily. Healthy food was food on the table, and we were thankful we had food on the table. Fat or lard is what she cooked with — not oil. Oil was for the tractors and automobiles.

Never heard of cooking on a grill, but we understood what cooking and eating around a campfire was. Water came out of the cistern and had to be hauled in by a water truck every two weeks. We never ever let the faucet run — ever!! BECAUSE Mom or Dad would holler at you!! That was a waste of water! We drank milk in place of water most of the time. Water in bottles — well, I buy water in bottles all the time now!!

Fresh pineapple, nope — that came in a can. We have access to wonderful fresh fruits now. Apples and oranges were a delicious item you got in your stocking at Christmas. Bananas, before they were carefully shipped, were not in good shape by the time they got to the grocery store. We bought meat from the meat man standing at the counter, who was ready to pick up what you wanted and wrap and tie the package with twine. I saw Mom and Dad trade popcorn and beans at the little locally owned market. My grandparents traded eggs and chickens, and during Thanksgiving turkeys, for groceries.

Now we HAVE to talk about cattle and horse feed. Oats and grains were to feed the animals. Seeds were for the birds. Now we have that in breakfast bars.

The whole family sat at the table at 6 o’clock every night. We said a blessing and passed food in bowls to each other. We HAD to take a little of everything. We HAD to clean our plate. We did not make choices as far as food at the table. That was what was available at the time, and you had better eat that because it would be a long time before the next meal. AND if you did not clean your plate — you did not get any of Mom’s wonderful desserts.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING, EVERYONE. I am thankful I have my family is here and that we can come together as a family. So many families are scattered and fractured. Most of all, I am thankful to have been born and raised in this wonderful UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. It gets a little more precious every day.

This recipes is most delicious, and I am proud to say it was compiled and invented by my daughter Gail.

PUMPKIN BARS The shortbread crust: Place in medium bowl: 2 cups of flour 1 teaspoon sugar 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 cube of chilled butter, cut into small cubes.

Cut in the butter with pastry cutter. Or use your hand and rub the butter in.

Mix until butter resembles small even pieces.

Press into a 9- by 13-inch pan. I used two 8- by 8-inch foil pans and divided evenly with a measuring cup. Press evenly into pan and up the sides. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes until lightly brown. Take out and let cool slightly.

While shortbread is baking mix: One 8-ounce package of cream cheese with one teaspoon sugar Warm to room temp.

Spread on slightly warm crust.

Pour the following over: In a bowl mix: 15 ounces of pumpkin 2 eggs 1/2 cup canned milk 1/2 cup brown sugar Add a splash of vanilla.

Mix well and pour onto the crust and cream cheese.

Bake 350 degrees until pumpkin is set — about 30 minutes.

BOB’S MOM’S FRUIT CAKE

1 tablespoon dark molasses Add: 2 cups flour 1 1/2 cups unsweetened applesauce 1 teaspoon soda Pinch of salt Add all your favorite spices: 1 tablespoon cinnamon 1 teaspoon each of cloves, allspice 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg Mix thoroughly.

Stir into the fruit mixture and make sure all fruit and nuts are coated. If you think you have to much batter, add more fruit such as dates, apricots and nuts a small amount at a time. I use Craisins in place of raisins. You can use half currents in place of raisins also.

One year, I could not find dates anywhere — so I used chopped prunes. Everyone raved about it. They gave the cake a rich flavor.

So now I make one cake with prunes and one cake with dates. No one knows the difference.

Absolutely NO citron of any kind. It ruins that cake.

Bake at 305 degrees for one hour in 8- by 8-inch pans – or use 2 loaf pans, and bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes. I find that the 8 x 8 pans are much easier for cutting the cake in squares for serving, in place of slicing.

After the cakes is baked, take it out of oven and let set for 20 minutes. Turn out cake onto a sheet of plastic wrap — pour 1/4 cup of dark rum, or I prefer apricot brandy over top. Wrap the cake up in the plastic and place back in the pan. Let it set for three days and pour more brandy over. Let set for a week and pour brandy over until ready to serve at Christmas.

I have decorated the square tops with halves of red or green cherries. Brush the top with a very small amount Karo syrup first.

Enjoy!! And share.

I modified this because I put in the things that we like into the great cake.

Prepare the fruit: MY MOM’S CRANBERRY SALAD Chop into bite-sized pieces: This is so good. I eat leftovers for breakfast.

2 cups dates 1 package fresh cranberries, picked over and washed 2 cups dry or candied pineapple Grind and place in large serving dish.

2 cups dehydrated apricots Add 1 cup of sugar over top and let set for 2 hours.

2 cups chopped walnuts Prepare 1 package of orange or raspberry or strawberry Jello 1 cup of chopped pecans with 1 cup of boiling water. Stir to dissolve completely and pour 1 cup of raisins over cranberries.

1 cup of candied red cherries (You can put one cup of green I like orange Jello but others are good also. cherries in also. I do not use them, but add on more cup of red Set aside to cool and add while the Jello is still not set: cherries.)

1 cup of crushed pineapple well drained Place in large bowl and pour 1/2 cup of dark rum or apricot 1 cup finely diced celery brandy over top and let soak covered for 24 hours.

1 cup of crushed walnuts To finish the cake Stir into the cranberry-Jello mixture and refrigerate until set.

In a small bowl, cream until fluffy: Prepare this the day before so it will be set. Serve with or with1/3 cup butter out a dollop of mayonnaise or a dollop of whipped cream on top.

1 cup brown sugar Enjoy as much as I do.

The secret to this applesauce cake is cider and dried apples

By AMERICA’S TEST KITCHEN

Applesauce cakes don’t have a singular definition; they run the gamut from dense, chunky fruitcakes to gummy “health” cakes without much flavor. We wanted a moist and tender cake that actually tasted like apples.

To achieve the loose, rustic crumb that’s best suited to a snack cake, we used the simple quick-bread mixing method, mixing the wet ingredients separately and then gently adding the dry ingredients by hand.

The challenge lay in adding more apple flavor. Simply increasing the applesauce made for a gummy cake, and fresh apples added too much moisture. But two other sources worked well: apple cider and dried apples.

When reduced to a syrup, the apple cider contributed a pleasing sweetness and a slight tang without excess moisture.

And dried apples—plumped in the cider while it was reducing—gave our cake even more apple flavor.

We liked the textural contrast provided by a simple sprinkling of spiced granulated sugar over the cake before baking. This cake is very moist, so it’s best to err on the side of overbaked when testing its doneness. We prefer the rich flavor of cider, but you can substitute apple juice.

APPLESAUCE SNACK CAKE Servings: 9 Start to finish: 1 hour (plus up to 2 hours to cool) 1 cup apple cider 3/4 cup dried apples, cut into 1/2-inch pieces 1 cup unsweetened applesauce, room temperature 2/3 cup (4 2/3 ounces) sugar 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves 1 1/2 cups (7 1/2 ounces) allpurpose flour 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 large egg, room temperature 1/2 teaspoon salt 8 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 325 F. Make foil sling for 8-inch square baking pan by folding 2 long sheets of aluminum foil so each is 8 inches wide. Lay sheets of foil in pan perpendicular to each other, with extra foil hanging over edges of pan. Push foil into corners and up sides of pan, smoothing foil flush to pan.

Combine cider and dried apples in small saucepan and simmer over medium heat until liquid evaporates and mixture appears dry, about 15 minutes.

Let mixture cool completely, then process with applesauce in food processor until smooth, 20 to 30 seconds.

Whisk sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves together in bowl; set aside 2 tablespoons mixture for topping. Whisk flour and baking soda together in second bowl.

Whisk egg and salt together in large bowl. Whisk in sugar mixture until well combined and light-colored, about 20 seconds. Whisk in melted butter in 3 additions, whisking after each addition until incorporated.

Whisk in applesauce mixture

and vanilla. Using rubber spatula, fold in flour mixture until just combined.

Transfer batter to prepared pan and smooth top with rubber spatula. Gently tap pan on counter to settle batter. Sprinkle reserved sugar mixture evenly over top. Bake until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes, rotating pan halfway through baking. Let cake cool completely in pan on wire rack, 1 to 2 hours.

Using foil overhang, lift cake from pan. Serve. (Cake can be stored at room temperature for up to 2 days.)

Celebrate the food processor by making a nice bowl of hummus

By AMERICA’S TEST KITCHEN

When the food processor was introduced in the 1970s, it suddenly made difficult or timeconsuming recipes so much easier. The fast blades combine ingredients in just seconds.

Hummus is a perfect example— this creamy spread is made with pureed chickpeas, tahini (which is like peanut butter but is made from sesame seeds), lemon juice, and spices.

Before the food processor, you had to beat these ingredients by hand. It was tough work turning chickpeas (a member of the bean family) into a smooth puree. The food processor makes hummus, and many other recipes, much easier and faster to prepare. Talk about a tasty invention.

Use baby carrots, slices of cucumber, whole cherry toma-

toes, crackers or pita chips. Follow this recipe with your kids.

HUMMUS Servings 6 (Makes about 1 1/2 cups) Prep Time: 10 minutes Cook Time: 5 minutes Prepare Ingredients: 1/4 cup water 2 tablespoons lemon juice, squeezed from 1 lemon 2 tablespoons tahini (stirred well before measuring) 2 tablespoons extra- virgin olive oil 1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas 1 garlic clove, peeled 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin Gather Cooking Equipment: Liquid measuring cup Spoon Colander Can opener Food processor

Rubber spatula Small bowl Start Cooking: In liquid measuring cup, stir together water, lemon juice, tahini, and oil.

Set colander in sink. Open can of chickpeas and pour into colander. Rinse chickpeas with cold water and shake colander to drain well.

Transfer chickpeas to food processor. Add garlic, salt, and cumin to food processor and lock lid into place. Process mixture for 10 seconds.

Stop food processor, remove lid, and scrape down sides of bowl with rubber spatula. Lock lid back into place and process until mixture is coarsely ground, about 5 seconds.

With processor running, slowly pour water mixture through feed tube until mixture is smooth, about 1 minute.

Stop food processor. Carefully remove food processor blade (ask an adult for help).

Transfer hummus to small bowl. Serve. (Leftover hummus can be refrigerated for up to 5 days. Before serving, stir in 1 tablespoon warm water to loosen hummus.)

The Dipping Life Don’t have a can of chickpeas in the pantry? You can turn plain yogurt, preferably thicker Greek- style yogurt, into a super-fast dip. (Whatever you do, no raspberry yogurt, please!)

Here are some ideas to get you started, but feel free to add flavors as you like.

— Greek Yogurt Dip: In small bowl, stir together 1 cup plain Greek yogurt, 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint, 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil, and pinch salt.

Soldotna wins at Nikiski’s senior night

By JEFF HELMINIAK Peninsula Clarion

Soldotna coach Neldon Gardner looked at the four forfeits his team would be giving up Tuesday night in a dual meet at Nikiski and had some news for his assistant coaches.

“Coach, if we don’t wrestle really well tonight, we’re going to get beat,” Gardner said he told his assistants before the match.

The Stars proceeded to wrestle really well and top the Bulldogs 45-34 on a night when Nikiski honored seniors Aaron Hack, Dustin Mullins, Justin Cox and Malcolm Yerkes.

For Gardner, it was a goodnews, bad-news situation. The reason the Stars had to deal with so many forfeits is because about eight wrestlers were ineligible based on grades. The wrestlers have through this week to get those grades up or their season is over.

“We’re hoping to get all of them back, or at least most of them back, going into regions and state,” Gardner said.

The coach said that Blaine

Hayes came through in a big way, starting the night off with a 9-4 decision over Simon Grenier at 140. With the energy of senior night, the lights off and a lone spotlight on the wrestlers, the Stars could have been in trouble if the Bulldogs got the momentum.

“Hayes hasn’t won a lot, but he put a real effort out,” Gardner said. “Things could have went the other way, but he got the ball rolling in the right direction.”

After that, Gardner pinpointed a pair of matches where the wrestlers had already beaten and lost to each other this season. At 171, Soldotna’s Sean Babitt pinned Caileb Payne, and at 112, Soldotna’s Logan Craig pinned Jaryn Zoda.

“The kids that wrestled tonight were top notch,” Gardner said.

Soldotna also received pins from Brayde Wolfe at 145, Brennan Werner at 215, Aaron Faletoi at 285 and Gideon Hutchison at 130.

Nikiski coach Adam Anders gave credit to Soldotna for coming in and wrestling well.

“I’m always proud of my guys,” Anders said. “We had certain opportunities tonight, but they wrestled great.”

Anders liked the way Koleman McCaughey (160) looked in recording a pin and the way Chase Olsen (130) wrestled in notching a major decision.

As for the seniors, Cox and Yerkes received forfeits, Hack did not wrestle and Mullins took a loss.

“It’s been so much fun and an honor coaching them over the years,” Anders said. “It’s been great seeing them come up through the program and I’m excited to see what the future holds for them.”

Tuesday Soldotna 45, Nikiski 34 140 — Blaine Hayes, Sol, dec. Simon Grenier, 9-4; 145 — Brayde Wolfe, Sol, p. Mason Payne, 3:32; 152 — Brian Kuhr, Sol, won by forfeit; 160 — Koleman McCaughey, Nik, p. Aiden Willets, 1:01; 171 — Sean Babitt, Sol, p.

Homer skaters topple Kenai

By JOEY KLECKA Peninsula Clarion

Fans that came expecting another shootout between Homer and Kenai Central like last Friday’s 7-5 score at the End of the Road Shootout tournament were left disappointed Tuesday night.

The Homer Mariners were not, as they skated off with a 12-2 Railbelt Conference victory over the Kardinals at the Kenai Multi-Purpose Facillity.

Homer (1-0 conference, 3-31 overall) iced its first conference contest of the season early with a six-goal outburst in the first period, including two power-play strikes.

“Before the game the message I gave the guys was we’re supposed to be a pretty darn good team,” said Homer head coach Steve Nevak.

The Mariners were led by junior Tyler Gilliland, who netted four goals himself. Gilliland said Homer’s strategy didn’t change much from Friday.

“We just shot a lot more,” he said. “Good positioning … the freshman and sophomores are really stepping up.”

The Mariners also got a hat trick from Alden Ross and two goals each from Ethan Pitzman and Aiden Arno. Pitzman, just four days removed from scoring six on Kenai, spent more time Tuesday directing Homer’s offensive attack as the junior skater had four assists to go with his pair of scoring strikes.

Kenai head coach Jacob Newton said the team was aware of Pitzman’s stealth, but he was more concerned with their finishing.

“It’s amazing to see such a lopsided score in such an even game,” Newton said. “Homer was able to finish out their opportunities and we couldn’t.”

Kenai (0-1 conference, 0-7 overall) got goals from Jacob Begich and Jordan Knudsen, and started Jackson Cross in goal but finished with Carson

‘Before the game the message I gave the guys was we’re supposed to be a pretty darn good team.’

— Steve Nevak, Homer hockey coach Koppes for the final two periods. Cross stopped 9 of 15 shots and Koppes warded off 17 of 23.

Homer outscored Kenai 6-0 in the first period but held a much less lopsided 15-10 shots advantage in the period.

The Mariners netted four more goals in the second but outshot Kenai 17-6.

Pitzman picked up where he left off Friday by scoring the first goal of the night just 22 seconds into the contest. Gilliland then added to the lead midway through the period on a crash to the net, and Isaiah Nevak made it 3-0 less than two minutes later.

Nevak’s goal sparked a fourgoal explosion from Homer in a 3:16 span, which included two power-play scores by Homer, one from Gilliland and the other from Ross.

Crossword

Gamer kicked out of house shames dad on social media stand on his own two feet, he never will.

DEAR ABBY: After my father died, I found a box of letters my late brother sent to the family when he was in the U.S. Air Force. He would have been in his 20s at the time.

The letters mention girlfriends, the woman he did marry and the time spent in jail as a result of a botched Abigail Van Buren robbery. (It was very out-ofcharacter for him, by the way.) He had a dishonorable discharge. After all that, he started a new life and became an ideal father until his 40s when he decided to divorce his wife of many years.

The letters reveal a lot about him. I thought his children might like this insight to their father, but my younger brother thinks it would be a bad idea. If this was my father, I would like to have these personal letters. What do you think?

-- UNKNOWN IN THE MIDWEST DEAR UNKNOWN: I’m glad you asked. Your brother’s children are all adults now. Tell them

you found the letters and ask them if they would like you to share them. I’m betting the answer will be yes.

DEAR READERS: Tomorrow is Thanksgiving, and no Thanksgiving would be complete without sharing the traditional prayer penned by my dear late mother: Oh, Heavenly Father, We thank Thee for food and remember the hungry.

We thank Thee for health and remember the sick.

We thank Thee for friends and remember the friendless.

We thank Thee for freedom and remember the enslaved.

May these remembrances stir us to service.

That Thy gifts to us may be used for others.

Amen.

Have a safe and happy celebration, everyone!

-- Love, ABBY 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.

Hints from Heloise

A baby born today has a Sun in Scorpio and a Moon in Taurus.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Wednesday, Nov. 21, 2018: When you make a commitment this year, it is as good as done. Be careful, as you could become overburdened as a result. You might want to look at your daily life and ask yourself whether it is reasonable to have so much going on each day. If you are single, you’ll want to make time for some romance.

POUND CAKE Dear Heloise: How can I make pound cake a little more exciting? By itself, pound cake is somewhat dull.

-- Karen T., Crofton, Md. Karen, heat about 1/2 cup of preserves and 1 tablespoon of flavored liqueur in a small saucepan, and dribble it over a slice of pound cake. Or dribble some chocolate sauce over a slice, and add a few fresh raspberries on top. For other tasty icing recipes and a bunch of unique cake recipes, order my Heloise’s Cake Recipes by sending $3 and a long, self-addressed, stamped (71 cents) envelope to: Heloise/Cakes, P.O. Box 795001, San Antonio, TX 78279-5001. Or you can order it online at www.Heloise.com.

Don’t have a toothpick on hand to test your cake’s doneness? Use a piece of uncooked spaghetti. It’s long enough to go all the way to the bottom of the pan for deep cakes.

-- Heloise COOKING SPRAY HINT Dear Heloise: Every time a recipe calls for honey or corn syrup, I use my measuring cup and then have a hard time removing that sticky substance from the cup. Any hints to help me out?

-- Belinda T., Shelby, Mont.

Belinda, spray the inside of your measuring cup with cooking spray when measuring sticky things. It makes cleanup so much easier!

-- Heloise MAYONNAISE MAYHEM Dear Heloise: Maybe you can end an argument my husband and I have: How long should you keep mayonnaise if it’s refrigerated? I say it’s OK up to three months. He says it’s only good up to three weeks. Help!

-- Kaylee V., South Bend, Ind. Kaylee, mayonnaise and most salad dressings, unopened on the shelf, can keep two to three months. In the refrigerator, after the jar has been opened, it’s good to use six to eight weeks.

DEAR ABBY: My 23-year-old son does not want to work and spends all his time playing video games.

He’s obsessed with them. He disrespects my house -- and me -- by not cleaning his room.

I don’t know what to do. He’s my son, but he is a user and feels he’s entitled to live here. He pays no bills and blows all his money on gaming. He quits every job he has. I love him and kicked him out once, but he got on Facebook and told people what bad parents we are.

All he says is he wants to be happy. I think he’s out of touch with reality. He has no place to go if I kick him out. What do I do?

-- DAD WHO’S HAD IT IN OHIO DEAR DAD: Your son is an adult, even if he doesn’t act like one. Give him a deadline to find another place to crash -- perhaps with a roommate -- and be out of there. If he says he has no money, remember that he comes up with money to “blow.”

It will take backbone to stand your ground, but you must not make your decisions and live your life based on what your son will post about you on Facebook. People often vent and exaggerate on social media. Your son is living in an altered reality because you have allowed it. If he isn’t forced to

get as many community members out and active in the winter as possible. Last year, participants topped out at 18. Chilson said he’d be fine with that number again, but he’d also love to see more racers.

“Having it in the daylight will also give us more trail options,” Chilson said. “We’re hoping to host more events at the expanded Slikok trail system.”

The sequencing of running, biking and skiing will also have more structure this season. Sunday starts four weeks of running races.

(Jessie Wardarski/ Pittsburgh Post-Gazette via AP)

By CANDICE CHOI AP Food & Health Writer

NEW YORK — Health officials in the U.S. and Canada told people Tuesday to stop eating romaine lettuce because of a new E. coli outbreak.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration said it is working with officials in Canada on the outbreak, which has sickened 32 people in 11 states and 18 people in the Canadian provinces of Ontario and Quebec.

The strain identified is different than the one linked to romaine earlier this year but appears similar to last year’s outbreak linked to leafy greens.

FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb said the agency doesn’t have enough information to ask suppliers for a recall, but he suggested that supermarkets and restaurants should withdraw romaine until the source of the contamination can be identified. People are also being advised to throw out any romaine they have at home.

The contaminated lettuce is likely still on the market, Gottlieb told The Associated Press in a phone interview.

He said FDA wanted to issue a warning before people gathered for Thanksgiving meals, where the potential for exposure could increase.

“We did feel some pressure to draw conclusions as quickly

as we could,” he said.

In Canada, officials issued similar warnings to the two provinces where people were sickened. They said there was no evidence to suggest people in other parts of the country had been affected.

Most romaine sold this time of year is grown in California, Gottlieb said. The romaine lettuce linked to the E. coli outbreak earlier this year was from Yuma, Arizona. Tainted irrigation water appeared to be the source of that outbreak, which sickened about 200 people and killed five.

The FDA’s blanket warning

in the current outbreak is broader and more direct than the ones issued in the earlier outbreak, said Robert Whitaker, chief science officer for the Produce Marketing Association. In the earlier outbreak, the warnings about romaine from Yuma might have been confusing, he said.

Whitaker said the industry group told members they should cooperate with the FDA and stop supplying romaine lettuce, especially since people have been told to stop buying and eating it.

No deaths have been reported in the current outbreak, but 13 people in the U.S. and six in Canada have been hospitalized.

Chilson said he also took inspiration from the Salmon Run Series in wanting to help a local nonprofit. The series encourages donations to the Kenai Peninsula Food Bank with discounts. With a donation, each race is $5 for Tsalteshi Trails Association members and $10 for nonmembers. Without donation, the price jumps to $6 for members and $12 for nonmembers.

“We’re really trying to develop a relationship with the food bank,” Chilson said. “Greg Meyer, the new executive director, is excited to get his staff onboard.”

There will be registration at tsalteshi.org or starting at 1:30 p.m. Sundays. Race and course details will be released about five days before each race at Tsalteshi’s Facebook page.

ice cleats are strongly recommended.

Four weeks of biking follow, then four weeks of skiing after that. The ski races naturally lead into the big citizen races like Tour of Tsalteshi, Tour of Anchorage and Kachemak Ski Marathon.

Having the running races first also gives the trails time to get covered with snow.

“Last year, what we were doing each week was pretty haphazard,” Chilson said. “For the hardcore crowd wanting to ski or fat bike, they can block out that phase and continue doing it week after week.”

But more than hardcore racing, Chilson said the series is designed for participation.

“The whole idea is to do something fun outside, and have something in the winter to fill that gap,” he said.

Nicholas Conner began working in the auto glass industry in 1999, living in Texas and Montana, where his passion began. Born and raised in Alaska, Nicholas moved back in 2000 and worked in the auto glass industry for about a year in Anchorage. In 2001, Nicholas decided the peninsula could really benefit from a mobile auto glass service. He moved back to Soldotna in 2009, and became one of the first mobile glass installers to service the area with Nick’s Auto Glass Mobile Services Peninsula Wide.

To better serve his customers, he opened Nick’s Auto Glass on K-Beach Road in Soldotna in 2015. The large facility helped expand the amount of inventory held on hand to provide in-shop services in the cold and dark Alaskan winters.

Fluctuations in cost pertaining to tariff on auto glass products imported from China have impacted business.

Prices and cost have already increased 10 percent, and as of Jan. 1, 2019, will increase an additional 15 percent — making the tariff a 25 percent cost increase. Nick’s Auto Glass has been working to absorb the additional cost increase with the tariff expense, but has ultimately within the year seen market prices, auto glass products, and business cost increasing, and has had to implement the same tariff expenses within the cost.

After 20-plus years of experience providing qual-

Windshields are part of the structural integrity of a vehicle, and can affect the safety of people inside the vehicle.

Some vehicles today are equipped with air bag deployment and rollover sensors designed to work with the windshield in perfect condition. A damaged, cracked, or chipped windshield can create a hazard and risk safety when not replaced or repaired.

Windshields should be repaired or replaced if they are damaged, cracked, or chipped to prevent further damage to windshield and vehicles — or every two years. Nick’s Auto Glass has top-of-theline products for repairs and installations.
