In the news Marathon Petroleum acquires outstanding shares of Andeavor KENAI — Marathon Petroleum Corp. says it has finished acquiring all outstanding shares of Andeavor, the company formerly known as Tesoro. Kenai radio station KSRM reports Marathon and Andeavor in April entered into a $23.3 billion merger agreement. Andeavor operates refineries in California, Minnesota, New Mexico, North Dakota, Texas, Utah, Washington and Alaska. Andeavor’s Kenai Refinery processes up to 72,000 barrels of oil per day. The refinery has 225 full time employees on staff. Marathon acquired the Kenai Refinery in the merger. The refinery produces gasoline, jet fuel, diesel fuel, heating oil and heavy fuel oils, propane and asphalt. The refinery receives crude oil double-hulled tankers through Cook Inlet and by pipeline from the Kenai Peninsula and Cook Inlet.

Alaska marijuana tax revenue remains above $1M in September JUNEAU — Marijuana tax collections in Alaska dipped slightly in September but still totaled about $1.5 million. Figures released by the state Revenue Department Thursday show tax revenue of $1.48 million in September, compared to $1.54 million in August, which remains the high. Cultivators pay the tax, which is imposed when marijuana is sold or transferred from a licensed grow facility to a retail marijuana shop or product manufacturing facility. The state says monthly tax revenue fell below $1 million in just one month this year. — Associated Press

District begins budget talks Anchor

Point oil, gas leases possible

By VICTORIA PETERSEN Peninsula Clarion

The Kenai Peninsula Borough School District is already breaking ground on their upcoming budget development — and is getting the community involved. Superintendent Sean Dusek and Assistant Superintendent Dave Jones spoke schools across the district via a live teleconference Tuesday evening. The meeting was open to staff, parents and anyone in the public interested in getting involved. Dusek and Jones outlined how the district budget works, budget development processes and areas of financial concern. The district has two major sources of revenue coming from the borough and the state. Jones said in the fiscal year 2018, the district received 35.75 percent of their revenue from the borough and 63.24 percent from the state. The rest of the revenue, just over 1 percent, comes from federal sources and other means. Enrollment has been con-

sistently declining since 2010, Dusek said during the video presentation. “Enrollment is the cornerstone of funding for our budget,” he said.

As of Oct. 1, the district serves approximately 8,644 students, not counting parttime students. With fewer students enrolled, the district could receive less funding from

the state in the future. Dusek said the district is noticing more and more students choosing to be homeschooled, either through the See SCHOOL, page A2

Analysis: How mines would be permitted under Ballot Measure 1 By KEVIN GULLUFSEN Juneau Empire

Ballot Measure 1 provides for building on fish habitat in Alaska in three tracks: major, minor and general permits. The measure will appear on the statewide ballot Nov. 6, and changes how the Alaska permits everything from ATV stream crossing to mines. In the third part of a series looking at the measure’s legal language, the Juneau Empire is parsing the most controversial permitting process: major permits. A major permit would apply to construction or water use with the potential to s ignificantly affect fish habitat. Any development that has the potential to harm salmon would trigger a major permit. This permitting track would apply to most large projects on fish habitat in Alaska. Things like boat launches, ATV stream crossing and recreational suction dredging would

Legislature’s new ethics law extends to private discussions By JAMES BROOKS Juneau Empire

Alaska lawmakers passed a tougher ethics law than they thought. In a meeting Thursday afternoon, the Legislature’s select committee on legislative ethics approved a legal opinion that says a new conflict-of-interest law covers discussions behind closed doors, not just public debate. The vote was 8-1, with Rep. Lora Reinbold, R-Eagle River, in opposition. “I just think this is going to put the entire legislative body in knots,” Reinbold said. This spring, lawmakers voted 24-15 in the House and 13-6

in the Senate to approve House Bill 44 from Rep. Jason Grenn, I-Anchorage. The bill requires lawmakers to declare if they or their families are financially affected by legislation under discussion. The conflict has to be worth at least $10,000. That conflict must be revealed in committee discussions, and if the legislation comes to the floor of the House or Senate, the lawmaker has to declare a conflict there and request to be excused from voting. Their fellow lawmakers can force them to vote anyway — in the Senate, the objection of Members of the House Majority Caucus speak to each other at only one lawmaker is needed to the Capitol on Wednesday, Feb. 7, 2018. Next year, lawmakers force them to vote. will be required to operate under a new conflict-of-interest law. See LAW, page A3 (Michael Penn/Juneau Empire file)

Lower Kenai Peninsula residents have a chance to learn about proposed oil and gas leases on Kenai Peninsula Borough land in the Anchor Point area at an upcoming Anchor Point Advisory Planning Commission meeting At the Oct. 23 Kenai Peninsula Borough Assembly meeting, the assembly introduced an ordinance to lease parcels in the Anchor Point area to Hilcorp for oil and gas subsurface rights. Assembly member Willy Dunne, who represents Anchor Point and other parts of the lower Kenai Peninsula, pulled the ordinance from the consent agenda for further discussion. It will be on the table for discussion at Anchor Point’s planning commission meeting at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 7, at the Anchor Point Chamber of Commerce. Ordinance 2018-34 would lease oil and gas rights at a minimum 12.5 percent royalty. One of the lease sites is near Chapman Elementary School on land now used as a solid waste and recycling transfer site. Called the Sea View Pad, the proposed Hilcorp well site is on land off the Old Sterling Highway. “I wanted to let folks know, especially folks down in the Anchor Point area, that there is borough code that requires that leases such as this would not include surface entry,” Dunne said at the meeting. “It’s sub surface only, even though the lease language does make reference to surface activities. One of the concerns I heard from people was that perhaps we need to negotiate a better deal on this.” In a follow-up interview, Dunne said borough Mayor Charlie Pierce told him he would like to negotiate a better royalty percentage. Dunne said he’s received See LEASE, page A3

State offers drinking water after toxic substance found JUNEAU (AP) — The state is offering safe drinking water to households in a southeast Alaska town after a toxic substance was discovered in groundwater. A dozen private wells in Gustavus qualified to receive shipped-in jugs of water from the state following the discovery of a chemical compound known as PFAS, Alaska’s Energy Desk reported Wednesday. The substance is found in See WATER, page A2

suggesting that PFAS might be more hazardous than previously thought. Exposure to the compound has been linked to an increased risk of cancer and the compound can affect development in children. The state Department of Transportation tested wells over the summer near the Gustavus airport.

Gustavus resident Kelly McLaughlin said she learned of the testing and persuaded the state to test her well. The results last month showed the well contained twice as much of the contaminant as the federal government advises for health. “You don’t think the water you’ve been drinking and assume is safe is poison,” McLaughlin said. “That’s not a thought that crossed my mind ever. I wasn’t prepared for the results to be that bad.” The state Department of Transportation plans to bring

in an engineer to develop some long-term solutions. Gustavus is a city of 550 on the north shore of Icy Passage. The city is 48 miles (77 kilometers) northwest of Juneau. It is surrounded by Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve on three sides. “This was nobody’s fault. As far as I know, nobody knew how bad these chemicals were,” McLaughlin said. “Nobody knew how far they would travel. The DOT did not intentionally poison the people in Gustavus. But it happened.”

council said it’s time for the district to dip further into their savings account. Another group member suggested Costco come to the peninsula, which would provide jobs and drive more families to the area. One parent asked how the borough could market the Kenai Peninsula as a place to live. “For people who work remotely, if you could work anywhere in the world, why not work here?” The parent said to the group. Dusek said the district has begun the process with the Kenai Peninsula Borough School District Education Board and borough administration towards creating a budget for the fiscal year 2020. He also said there will be many more opportunities in the coming months for the public to weigh in on the budget.

to supporting the school district, from 3 percent to 3.5 percent. Parents and teachers at the Kenai site council said marketing the increase as a way to support student activities like sports, might be the key to winning over voters who would generally oppose a tax increase. Parents and staff at the site council agreed the district couldn’t afford to lose activities and sports programs. Kenai Central principal Alan Fields, who facilitated the site council discussion, said potential cuts to these programs would only increase issues with district funding and enrollment. “I think graduation rates would go down and people would actually move,” Fields said.

of statewide distance-learning education programs may be one reason the district is seeing a decline in enrollment. Other factors brought up as reasons for declining enrollments were the local economy and the closure and suspension of area projects and industry. The group suggested a potential policy that would require students to enroll in their area’s home-school program, which would be the district’s Connections program for peninsula students. The idea for the policy is the district wouldn’t lose any student headcount to out-of-area programs. Other ideas from the group included revisiting a tax increase initiative that failed to get off the ground earlier this summer. The increase would bring the general borough sales tax, which is dedicated

The House used to have the same rule, but the passage of House Concurrent Resolution 1 this spring changed the hurdle. Now, 10 members of the 40-person House must object in order for the conflicted lawmaker to vote. In January, the Legislature will operate under these new rules for the first time, and the ethics committee had some questions for legislative lawyers about how to implement them. As attorney Megan Wallace said, the new restrictions apply beyond committee hearings: They cover even the closeddoor discussions of the majority and minority caucuses in the House and Senate. “Accordingly, if the caucus meeting is a ‌ ‘private informal meeting to discuss and deliberate on political strategy,’ ‌ the legislator will be prohibited from exerting ‘official influence or advocating for the bill in the caucus meeting,â€? Wallace wrote in a memo explaining the law’s application. Reinbold asked Wallace several hypothetical situations, attempting to discern what might constitute a conflict of interest and what might not. Reinbold’s spouse is a ConocoPhillips employee, and under a strict interpretation of the law, she might be required to declare a conflict of interest if the Legislature were discussing changes to the state’s oil tax.

of the law, all legislators could be subject to disclosure requirements, given that they receive Permanent Fund Dividends and benefit from state services funded by oil taxes. Wallace said determining conflicts must be done on a case-by-case basis, based on the individual and the particular bill. “You only know from looking at the bill itself ‌ whether that test is met,â€? she said. “My recommendation would be that if a legislator or someone else has these issues presented, then they should give the office a call and have a more specific discussion,â€? she added later in the meeting. Reinbold said she finds the matter “incredibly troublingâ€? and that it could violate the First Amendment rights of lawmakers. Joyce Anderson, a public member of the ethics committee, identified a loophole in the legislation: Lawmakers do not have to declare a conflict of interest if they testify in front of a committee, only if they are a member of a committee. Members of the committee said they cannot change the new law on their own. They can only interpret its language. Any changes would be up to lawmakers themselves, once the session begins in January. Wallace said the consequences of violating the law are likely to be limited. “Failure isn’t going to stop ‌ legislation from moving forward,â€? she said. “From a legal perspective, a violation of the ethics act won’t render the legislation itself invalid.â€?

What Others Say

What we lost at Tree of Life She lived 97 years, only to be gunned down in her synagogue. That was the unfair end to the life that Rose Mallinger lived with energy, love and joy. While the enormity of Saturday’s mass shooting at Tree of Life is most easily comprehended in numbers and turns of phrase — 11 dead in what has been described as the most horrific attack on the American Jewish community in U.S. history — that doesn’t begin to articulate the loss rippling across the victims’ families, professions and communities. The victims had gifts to give, like Ms. Mallinger’s love and wisdom for her family, and they enriched the world in ways that should be celebrated and remembered. Consider the sharp mind, healing hand and compassionate heart of Jerry Rabinowitz, a family physician who could make everything better. The field of medicine, so often criticized for bureaucracy these days, will be poorer without his human touch. Think of Joyce Fienberg, a research specialist at the University of Pittsburgh’s Learning Research and Development Center from 1983 to 2008. Who knows how many schools, teachers and students benefited from her insights or how her work may influence the field of education for years to come? Ponder the resilience modeled by David and Cecil Rosenthal, two brothers with intellectual disabilities who lived full lives in a world often unkind to people who are different. Consider the cumulative effect of the many kindnesses of Daniel Stein and Irving Younger, who served as youth baseball coaches and held various roles at the synagogue. Mr. Younger often greeted congregants and bid them welcome. Vibrant communities and well-run organizations rely on volunteers like these. How precious the example of Bernice and Sylvan Simon, a married couple whose love spanned more than six decades; of Richard Gottfried, a dentist who married a Catholic woman and volunteered his services to a free clinic run by Catholic Charities; and of Melvin Wax, whose spirituality defied an ever-more-secular world. Bill Cartiff, a friend of Mr. Wax, said that going to synagogue “was as important to him as breakfast to most people.” Only by knowing a little about the victims is it possible to fathom all that was stolen by one man with crazy ideas about Jews and refugees. If people filled with hate got to know the people they’ve come to hate, there might be more peace in the world. Who could hate Ms. Mallinger or the Rosenthals? Mr. Cartiff asked, “How do we move from here?” The lives the 11 lived — filled with joy, civic-mindedness and compassion for others — are pointing the way.

Why I support Peter Micciche

Of the candidates for Senate District O, Peter Micciche scores highest using my evaluation criteria: (1) Experience. Peter demonstrated a hard work ethic, trustworthiness and competence as he worked his way up from an entry-level job at a notable oil company to become the managing executive of a large industrial plant. Peter is also a commercial fisherman since 1994 and knows the excitement of a good season and the disappointment of a bad one. Peter started his political career as a Soldotna councilor and then was twice elected as its mayor. (2) Integrity. In corporate life, integrity is mandatory to rise to senior plant executive level. This progression attests to Peter’s integrity and acumen, which has continued through his public service career. Peter has been transparent about his career in the oil and gas industry, and I have never observed that he allowed his professional occupation to alter his decisions as a lawmaker. (3) Effectiveness. The very first complaint I hear from people after a legislative session in Juneau is that they never get anything done. In my experience in the Kenai Borough Assembly, I under-

V oices of the

P eninsula W ayne O gle stand that it is difficult for the public to completely understand the hard work that a public servant undergoes to effect change on behalf of their constituency. I cannot imagine a legislator without any government or corporate experience attempting to be effective when blindly entering the Senate level. Peter is a leader in the Senate. He and his Senate colleagues were able to beat back 13 attempts by the governor and the House majority to impose tax increases last year. No doubt, if it were not for Peter and the Senate, we would be paying some form of income tax. Eighteen out of the 20 senators (including Peter) voted for the crime bill, SB 91. They all took a lot of criticism for this comprehensive bill that was very disappointing overall. Fair enough. Impressive, was that Peter rec-

ognized SB 91’s failures, and has led the charge to pass legislation that amended many of its shortfalls. He is committed to improve the bill. Peter always works hard to hear the differing perspectives on issues and then uses his experience to get things done. Sen. Micciche is a very effective legislator who can point to real accomplishments that he has achieved on behalf of his constituents. With any political servant who has such a varied constituency, there are few that can say they are 100 percent pleased. I do not agree with the state government intruding into businesses and imposing a smoking ban. While I understand there may be those that do not like smoking, they are free to go to other establishments that prohibit smoking. Despite his support for that bill, I overwhelmingly endorse Peter and am thankful for the vast majority of his hard work and decisions in Juneau. Peter Micciche is the only candidate who has the experience, effectiveness and integrity that we need in the Alaska Senate. Wayne Ogle is president of the Kenai Borough Assembly and lives in Nikiski.

Dunleavy may crash Alaska’s fragile economy

Mike Dunleavy didn’t give Alaska Federation of Natives attendees much to cheer about in mid-October (which seems an eternity away in politics). People did clap politely after his opening remarks, which included that his wife Rose and daughters are Alaska Native. Dunleavy should be proud of Rose. I like Rose. Everybody likes Rose. A ticket agent, Rose has warmly greeted Alaska Airlines passengers for years, including people flying home to Kotzebue. If I could vote for Rose, I would. But Rose is not on the Nov. 6 ballot. Dunleavy is. He’s way different from Rose, who grew up in Noorvik in the Kotzebue region, which conflicted over Dunleavy versus Mark Begich for governor. After all, Rose could be Alaska’s First Lady. That may sound promising, but Dun— Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Oct. 30 leavy’s voting record as state senator does not bode well for urban or rural Alaska.

Letters to the Editor:

A laska V oices J ohn C reed “Today more criminals are in our communities, committing more crime.” Dunleavy’s proposals don’t add up. He’s voted to slash education in Alaska, then contradicts himself by saying he’ll build expensive boarding schools in rural Alaska, drawing students from surrounding village schools. He claims he won’t cut your PFD, until soon enough there’s not enough money for any PFDs. He’ll disappear our reserves AND slash a shrinking budget that triggered Alaska’s long recession. Realtors and bankers should fear Dunleavy crashing an already fragile economy. While Begich got strong responses at AFN, Dunleavy repeatedly got stone silence. Maybe many Valley residents like that. Unlike Dunleavy, though, Begich acknowledged Gov. Bill Walker’s “amazing, courageous action” to drop out of the race, prompting Native leaders to heap praise on Walker. Dunleavy made Walker’s emotional

withdrawal all about Dunleavy, whose campaign called it “a bitter, partisan attack.” How is that bitter after Native leaders had just honored the governor so movingly? Dunleavy should have appealed to Walker voters at this crucial moment, not alienate them. The Northwest Arctic is pushing back on Dunleavy. “I’m not voting for governor because he has nice family members, or because we’re family,” Sandy ShroyerBeaver wrote on her Facebook page. “I want to vote for someone who treats all Alaskans equally.” Shroyer-Beaver was Northwest Arctic regional school board president for years and a board member when Dunleavy was superintendent. She helped end the Dunleavy-instigated practice of pushing out perfectly good teachers. Instead of answering to Alaskans, Dunleavy will be beholden to Outside corporate money, including his wealthy brother Francis Dunleavy in Texas. Outside dollars have been bankrolling independent Dunleavy advertising efforts, saturating Alaska with signage and media spots designed to overwhelm Begich. We’ll see if Outside corporate money can buy Alaska’s governor’s mansion. John Creed is emeritus professor of journalism after 30 years of teaching for the University of Alaska in Kotzebue.

Trump campaigns in hopes of unseating McCaskill A check of her record, however, shows that McCaskill votes with the president about half the time, though she has opposed him on some key issues, including his tax cuts and the recent confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. Trump said McCaskill’s Republican challenger Josh Hawley “will be a star.” It was Trump’s second rally in an 11stop, eight-state tour designed to boost Republican turnout. He will appear twice in Missouri, a state he won by nearly 19

percentage points. McCaskill is among a number of vulnerable Democrats running in red states. She is a top target for Republicans seeking to expand the party’s slim 51-49 edge in the U.S. Senate. McCaskill is pitching herself as a moderate as she seeks to hold onto her seat. She has sought to distance herself from “crazy Democrats” and said in an appearance on Fox News that she supports Trump’s efforts to secure the southern border.

Against monsters, light always wins As I write this, Halloween is just a day away and we are making preparations for the costumed horde to swoop in for all the “fun size” treats we have to offer in hopes to dissuade the “tricks” that are promised without them. Perhaps more than ever this year, I have seen adults in costumed glory for a number of weeks before the official Halloween designation. I was startled to see a woman a week ago wearing a bumblebee outfit striding across a gas station lot and thought to myself, “This isn’t even Walmart.” Monsters and superheroes, celebrities and politicians all make for cute and fun events, except when they spill over where they are not wanted. Do you remember monsters under your

V oices of F aith REV. STEPHEN BROWN bed at night? Or boogie men in your closet? I remember being terrified to let my leg out from under the covers lest a scaly, long-fingernailed hand grab it and snatch me out from my bed to be dragged underneath never to be heard from again. I never thought why the covers were such a safe haven from such things, but I suppose those things are just understood in the juvenile mind. Aren’t you glad that we grow up and the “monsters” leave us? Except when they don’t.

Too often, the monsters leave the dust bunny farms under our beds and take up residence between our ears. Mind monsters, you might say. They whisper fearful things to us, weakening our confidence and causing us to fear failure before we even try. You’ve heard the voice of a mind monster if you have ever heard something like, “You aren’t that smart,” or, “You always do the wrong thing.” The message may be a little different, but they all stem from the same place. They essentially are saying, “You are not enough.” Isn’t that what we really fear? The truth is, that through Christ, we are enough. When we have relationship with Jesus we can face the mind monsters and expose their

lying messages. Remember the monsters under the bed or in your closet? When your parents came into your room and turned on the LIGHT, they instantly disappeared. Light always wins. Sometimes a night light kept them at bay from then on. So it is with the monsters that live in our heads. When we shine the light of truth on them, those voices begin to fade. When we believe the truth, we have the ability to shut down the voices that tell us that we are not enough. Listen to this bright light of truth: Romans 8:31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?

Rabbi cites Jesus in prayer for synagogue victims with Pence By ZEKE MILLER and DAVID EGGERT Associated Press

WASHINGTON — A rabbi invited to pray at a Michigan campaign stop with Vice President Mike Pence on Monday referenced “Jesus the Messiah” at the event. Rabbi Loren Jacobs of Messianic congregation Shema Yisrael offered prayers for the victims of the Pittsburgh synagogue massacre. Messianic Jews follow Jewish law but believe that Jesus is the Messiah. The major denominations of Judaism reject Messianic Judaism as a form of Judaism, and Jacobs’ participation was condemned by Jews on social media. A Pence aide told The Associated Press that Jacobs was invited to pray at the event in suburban Detroit’s Waterford Township by GOP congressional candidate Lena Epstein and said Pence did not know who he was when he invited Jacobs back onstage to offer another a prayer for the victims, their families and the nation. As Pence stood next to him, Jacobs ended his prayer by saying, “in the name of Jesus.” The aide was not authorized to discuss the situation publicly and spoke on the condition of anonymity. “He was not invited by the VP’s office to speak on behalf of

the Jewish community,” the aide said. Epstein, who is Jewish, said in a statement that she invited Jacobs’ prayer “because we must unite as a nation — while embracing our religious differences — in the aftermath of Pennsylvania.” She said anyone attacking her or Pence over the prayer is “guilty of nothing short of religious intolerance and should be ashamed. This was an effort at unity, yet some are trying to create needless division to suit their political goals.” Detroit-area Rabbi Jason Miller said on Facebook that there are at least 60 rabbis on a directory of Michigan rabbis and “yet the only rabbi they could find to offer a prayer for the 11 Jewish victims in Pittsburgh at the Mike Pence rally was a local Jews for Jesus rabbi? That’s pathetic!” Jordan Acker, a Jewish lawyer who is running for the University of Michigan Board of Regents as a Democrat, criticized Epstein on Twitter. He said she was “deeply insensitive for bringing a group on stage whose entire mission is to convert Jews,” days after the worst instance of anti-Semitic violence in American history. Epstein is running against Democrat Haley Stevens for a House seat opening with the retirement of Republican Rep. Dave Trott.

Ritchie makes mark on faceoffs Strong acadmics give Bears forward plenty of options in choosing college By JEFF HELMINIAK Peninsula Clarion

Kenai River Brown Bears forward Logan Ritchie, 19, excels in both the classroom and the faceoff circle, and that’s brought him an opportunity to try and get to the next level with the Kenai River Brown Bears of the North American Hockey League. Ritchie caught the attention of Bears head coach Josh Petrich for great play with the St. Louis Blues AAA program and lights-out work in the classroom. “We wanted to go out and get leaders that are excited to be here and want to win,” Petrich said. Petrich called Ritchie and his parents, Christina and Mike Ritchie of O’Fallon, Missouri, and expressed interest in signing Ritchie to a tender. A

f I had a choice, every afternoon would be like this afternoon. I’m sitting on a bench on my front lawn and the sun is shining. It’s a beautifully brisk day, with crunchy leaves all over the ground. The dog I’m watching for a friend is enjoying rolling among them, filling the winter air with the sounds of fall. It’s November and there is snow on the mountains, but leaves in the grass. It’s the best of both seasons. So, if someone asked me, “Do you want tomorrow’s weather to be just like today?” I’d say “Yes” without hesitation. Or if they asked me, “Do you want it to rain tomorrow, from morning to night?” I’d say “No” without a second guess. And if they told me that if I didn’t choose “Yes” or “No” on either question they’d let someone else decide for me, I’d be sure to make my vote known. Maybe that’s a little too obvious. I’m trying to muster up an analogy about voting this Election Day. Is it working? Yeah, I didn’t think so either, but I find it easier to talk about the weather than politics nowadays. See, the thing is my brain has been in a bit of a fog lately. I spent three days traveling back to Alaska after visiting my parents in New Jersey by going through four airports, two hotels, many hours spent in layovers and a lot of granola bars. It wasn’t an easy trip, but I’ve learned that most things to do with Alaska aren’t easy. Seeing that latest blockbuster movie? Get ready for a two-hour drive. Need to heat the living room? Get out the axe and start splitting wood! Want to visit those hot springs your friend recommended? Find a dogsled and start mushing. A lot of times in this state, you have to work a little bit harder for things. Take skiing, for example. A group of my friends are getting antsy for these hybrid days to disappear under piles of snow so they can get up into the mountains and ski. Backcountry skiing, from my remedial understanding, involves hiking up a mountain with skis on your back and an avalanche beacon in your pocket (a shovel somewhere too!) in search of something exhilarating. It sounds like an exhausting and dangerous uphill battle — anything but easy. In true Alaska fashion, though, my buddies are counting down the days to get out there. And me? I’m finding it hard to wrap my head around a task that difficult. I’ll stick to some simpler

PALMER — As the Soldotna Stars tried to close out Palmer in the fourth game Thursday afternoon, the Moose put together a run. The Stars had held a five-point lead, but suddenly faced a four-point deficit. In the end, Soldotna prevailed in an openinground match at the Northern Lights Conference tournament at Colony High School in Palmer to earn a second-straight Class 4A state berth. The Stars were able to cement a spot at state after just one game because the five-team conference gets three state berths. Soldotna used a Bailey Leach service ace and a pair of Aliann Schmidt kills late to cement a 3-1 win over the Moose. Leach collected back-toback aces early in the fourth game to give Soldotna the 11-6 lead, and added another ace late to push SoHi ahead 22-21. “I thought our serving gave them some trouble,” Soldotna head coach Shelia Kupferschmid said after the win. “We’ve worked on that most of the end of the year. It really paid off for us.” Kupferschmid said senior Kodi McGillivray was also a key for the Stars. “She had an awesome match today,” Kupferschmid said. “Defensively, she had some nice plays.

tender gives a squad exclusive NAHL rights to a player and removes his name from the draft. Rather than exciting, Ritchie called the initial call interesting. O’Fallon is just 45 minutes outside of St. Louis and moving to the Kenai Peninsula would be quite a change. “Josh said a lot of guys end up coming up here from big cities and liking it,” Ritchie said. “I’ve done a lot of traveling with my family and it’s always to places that are away from cities and more outdoorsy. It seemed like me, and it’s been a pretty easy transition moving up here.” Ritchie said he was working out at the gym this week and drove home to his billet parents, Michell and Terry Stanislav Dosek and Mason Salquist of the Janesville (Wisconsin) Jets and Johnston of Firehouse BBQ fame.

North Pole goaltender Moses Halbert made one mistake early, then stayed perfect the rest of the night. Halbert stood tall in net for the Patriots, stopping 40 of 41 shots Thursday night at the Kenai Multi-Purpose Facility to lead North Pole to an 8-1 win over Kenai Central at the Peninsula Ice Challenge tournament. “Amazing,” said Patriots head coach Edward Halbert. “Just getting the whole team to play from the beginning to the end with intensity. It wasn’t perfect, but they had intensity.” At the Soldotna Regional Sports Complex, the Chugiak Mustangs prevailed 6-1 over the Soldotna Stars. The tournament continues today with a 4:30 p.m. matchup between Soldotna and North Pole at the Sports Complex, and a 7:30 p.m. game between Kenai and Chugiak in Kenai.

Anna’s Hummingbird gets banded in Homer

O

ct. 17, 2018, will be one for the record books. The day began like many others, dealing with an injured bald eagle that needed transport to Bird Treatment and Learning Center in Anchorage for evaluation and, hopefully, rehabilitation. After wrestling 10 pounds of muscle-bound male eagle into a pet carrier for transport, I turned my truck south and headed for Homer. In August, I wrote about my trip to Idaho to get certified for banding hummingbirds. So I was glad to apply my new skill set as there was a report of two Anna’s Hummingbirds at a private residence in Homer. It didn’t take long after arriving to find the hummingbird. He intermittently sang from his alder perch when not scolding me for messing with “his” feeder. I let him get comfortable with the setup of his feeder hanging inside my trap for about 20 minutes while I prepped the rest of my banding equipment. When I sprung the trap on This hatching-year male Anna’s Hummingbird was banded in Homer on Oct. 17. This is the him, he only seemed slightly westernmost banding record for this species in North America. (Photo by Aaron Lang) concerned, even resuming his

R efuge N otebook T odd E skelin feeding inside the trap. He was far from happy when I actually got ahold of him and he jacked his little wings out and up as hard as he could. When I folded them in place next to his body to keep him safe, it almost felt as if I were going to break something. After placing the leg band on his right leg and taking several measurements, I concluded it was an immature male Anna’s Hummingbird born sometime this summer. But where did it come from? Anna’s supposedly do not breed here yet, but for the past five years or so they have shown up regularly in Homer and Seward in late fall. With an additional permit, I was allowed to collect one tail feather that will grow back in two or three weeks. That tail feather will be part of a study being conducted by Jessica

Pollock from Boise State University. She is looking at the proportion of several stable isotopes to determine where the bird was when that feather was grown. Unfortunately, this male Anna’s had just replaced its tail while here in Homer so the isotope signature will be from Homer rather than helping to unravel the mystery of his birthplace. All is not lost, however, as this will give us the isotopic profile for Homer. If future sampled birds with retained juvenile feathers have that same signature, we will know that Anna’s breeding range has now reached Southcentral Alaska. I initially believed this was the all-time northernmost banding record for the species, with Cordova being the other banding location in Alaska. I was quickly corrected that this record was the farthest west, but Cordova is actually farther north than Homer, so Cordova still has that claim. A quick glance at the map and you’ll see that the city of See REFUGE, page A7

Kenai is less than a mile north of Cordova, so Cordova has Homer beat by a long shot. It was also quite a diverse day for me birdwise. I handled both the bald eagle, which is arguably the largest bird on the peninsula at roughly 4,500 grams, and Anna’s Hummingbird, which is 1,000 times smaller at 4.7 grams. I am still struck by the power in that little wing as he held it up not wanting me to close it next to his body. How do they have so much strength holding

their wings out? I’ve banded thousands of birds, but I have never felt that kind of power on the upstroke, only on the downstroke. A little digging and it totally makes sense. We all know about the breast muscles in birds, also called the pectoralis major, which is what we like to eat in chickens, turkeys, grouse and waterfowl. The pectorals are big and powerful, pulling the wings down and providing lift. But directly underneath that muscle, separated by a thin membrane, is the supracoracoideus muscle. It is the shiny little muscle that peels out when you breast out a chicken and is

sold as chicken tenders. It has a large tendon at the forward end that forms a unique rope-andpulley system. From the breast side of the bird, the tendon wraps over the shoulder blades and out the top of the wing. When contracted, this muscle pulls the wing on the upstroke and allows birds to hold the wing in place while soaring. In most birds, the supracoracoideus is about one-fifth the size of the pectoralis muscle. In hummingbirds, however, their supracoracoideus is half the size of the pectoralis because they are tasked with much more than just upstroke recovery. Hummingbirds can back up,

hover and perform aerobatic maneuvers that other birds cannot. So the pound-for-pound strength of this 4-gram bird holding its wing up was not a figment of my imagination, but rather the result of a sophisticated mechanism giving them superior maneuverability.

Mullens leads 49ers past Raiders SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) — Nick Mullens got several hundred congratulatory text messages, a phone call from Brett Favre and his Twitter account verified. Delivering the most productive game by a quarterback in his NFL debut since the merger leads to many accolades. Mullens threw for 262 yards and three touchdowns and the San Francisco 49ers thoroughly dominated the Battle of the Bay, beating the Oakland Raiders 34-3 on Thursday night. The former undrafted free agent out of Favre’s alma mater Southern Mississippi finished 16 for 22 in place of the injured C.J. Beathard and had a 151.9 passer rating, the highest for a quarterback with at least 15 at-

tempts in an NFL debut since the 1970 merger. “I think I’m here for a reason. This is my opportunity to prove that I can play,� Mullens said. “Today’s thing was just attack your job and worry about what matters. What mattered most tonight was the team and how we played.� The Niners (2-7) couldn’t have played much better in snapping a six-game losing streak and winning for just the second time in two years without Jimmy Garoppolo at quarterback. Mullens threw TD passes to Pierre Garcon and Kendrick Bourne on the opening two drives and connected on a 71yard one-handed catch-and-run play to George Kittle to set up a

third TD pass to Kittle. Raheem Mostert added a 52-yard TD run and the defense generated eight sacks for the first time since 2009. But the story of the game was Mullens, got rid of the ball quickly and took advantages of several breakdowns in coverage for big plays, including the 24yard TD pass to a wide-open Garcon on the opening drive. “It was cool that he didn’t change under the big lights and these circumstances,� cornerback Richard Sherman said. “We’re not really surprised. We’ve seen him do it in practice. He plays with a lot of confidence.� With Garoppolo out for the season and Beathard having lost nine of 10 career starts, the in-

evitable question will be whether Mullens will take over as starter for the next game Nov. 12 against the New York Giants. “We’ll definitely consider it,� coach Kyle Shanahan said. “I’m definitely not thinking about it right now. Our whole team played very well. They definitely did.� The Raiders (1-7) clearly didn’t, losing for the fourth straight time, getting outscored by 85 points during the skid. “I know it’s not looking pretty right now,� coach Jon Gruden said. “I’ve heard a lot of negativity over the last six, seven months and rightfully so. But we’re going to build a championship football team here.�

Anyone can vote early, whether in-person, through the mail, online or even through a fax machine (for me, another difficult task would be finding a fax machine). Early voting started in Alaska on Oct. 22, which means you can walk into your local election office and cast your ballot. You’ll even get a cool sticker for your water bottle.

Today in History Today is Friday, Nov. 2, the 306th day of 2018. There are 59 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Nov. 2, 1976, former Georgia Gov. Jimmy Carter became the first candidate from the Deep South since the Civil War to be elected president as he defeated incumbent Gerald R. Ford. On this date: In 1783, General George Washington issued his Farewell Address to the Army near Princeton, New Jersey. In 1889, North Dakota and South Dakota became the 39th and 40th states with the signing of proclamations by President Benjamin Harrison. In 1917, British Foreign Secretary Arthur Balfour issued a declaration expressing support for a “national home� for the Jews in Palestine. In 1930, Haile Selassie (HY’-lee sehl-AH’-see) was crowned emperor of Ethiopia. In 1947, Howard Hughes piloted his huge wooden flying boat, the Hughes H-4 Hercules (derisively dubbed the “Spruce Goose� by detractors), on its only flight, which lasted about a minute over Long Beach Harbor in California. In 1948, President Harry S. Truman surprised the experts by winning a narrow upset over Republican challenger Thomas E. Dewey. In 1950, playwright George Bernard Shaw, 94, died in Ayot St. Lawrence, Hertfordshire, England. In 1959, game show contestant Charles Van Doren admitted to a House subcommittee that he’d been given questions and answers in advance when he appeared on the N-B-C T-V program “TwentyOne.� In 1986, kidnappers in Lebanon released American hospital administrator David Jacobsen after holding him for 17 months. In 1992, movie producer Hal Roach died in Los Angeles at age 100. In 1994, a jury in Pensacola, Florida, convicted Paul Hill of murder for the shotgun slayings of an abortion provider and his bodyguard; Hill was executed in September 2003. In 2000, American astronaut Bill Shepherd and two Russian cosmonauts, Yuri Gidzenko and Sergei Krikalev, became the first residents of the international space station. Ten years ago: Barack Obama and John McCain uncorked massive get-out-the-vote operations in more than a dozen battleground states the Sunday before Election Day. Obama’s grandmother, Madelyn Payne Dunham, died in Honolulu at age 86. Paula Radcliffe defended her title at the New York City Marathon to become the second woman to win the race three times; Marilson Gomes dos Santos of Brazil won the men’s race for the second time in three years. Five years ago: Gunmen abducted and killed French radio journalists Ghislaine Dupont and Claude Verlon in northern Mali, grabbing the pair as they left the home of a rebel leader. One year ago: President Donald Trump tapped Jerome Powell to replace Janet Yellen as Federal Reserve chair at the end of her term in February. Authorities in Los Angeles and New York said they had opened new investigations prompted by sexual misconduct allegations against Harvey Weinstein. Twitter reported that a customer support worker who was on his or her last day on the job had deactivated President Donald Trump’s Twitter account for a few minutes, resulting in an error message that the user “does not exist.� Today’s Birthdays: Singer Jay Black (Jay and the Americans) is 80.

Miles Marston, from between the faceoff circles just 80 seconds into the game to put Kenai up 1-0. From there on out, however, nothing got by Halbert, who was a perfect 30 for 30 through the second and third periods. “We could not get a bounce to go our way,” said Kenai head coach Jacob Newton. “We raid-

ed them, and we just could not finish.” Kenai goalie Carson Koppes made 27 saves on 34 shots before being pulled in the third period for Jackson Cross, who stopped two of three. In all, seven different players scored for North Pole, including four skaters who earned their first career goals for the Patriots — Dylan Storey, Hunter Matteson, Cody Benjamin and Devon Clark. Benjamin netted two goals for North Pole. After Kenai’s opening strike,

the Patriots tied it up 4:35 later on a one-on-one rush down the ice by Daniel Crutcher, then took the lead 33 seconds later on a slapshot from over 20 feet out by Storey. Mistakes by Kenai led to three penalties in the opening period, and North Pole capitalized as Mason Wilbur tacked on a power play goal with 3:28 left in the period to give the Patriots a 3-1 edge after one. North Pole scored with 5:48 left in the second period to go up 4-1 as Matteson cleaned up

a rebound in the crease. Chugiak 6, Soldotna 1 The Mustangs received a hat trick from Luke Momblow in topping the Stars in the first round of the Peninsula Ice Challenge on Thursday.

WADA president turns criticism to US leagues LONDON (AP) — Facing increased criticism over Russia’s reinstatement, World Anti-Doping Agency president Craig Reedie responded to one of his harshest detractors by pointing out that the major American sports leagues routinely ignore international guidelines. Reedie, speaking in an interview with The Associated Press on Thursday at a WADA event, again defended the plan to rehabilitate Russia following a three-year ban for corrupting sporting events, including the 2014 Sochi Olympics, by covering up doping. Critics, including U.S. Anti-Doping Agency chief executive Travis Tygart, have said Reedie’s objectivity has been compromised because he is also a member of the International Olympic Committee and that he should leave one of the positions. “He should be aware that the rest of the world

is asking questions about why he spends quite so much time criticizing the organization who is actually doing almost everything he wants done as opposed to looking after his own backyard,” Reedie said. “They have their own rules,” Reedie added. “They have a completely different system of agreement on how the sport is conducted. I just think I would like USADA or somebody in the United States ... to go and speak to the players’ unions and suggest to them that the whole development of clean sport would set a very good example if that could be done in the United States.” Reedie said he has tried to persuade NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell to get football subject to the WADA code. “The league is actually answerable to the owners,” Reedie said of the teams. “There is a general belief in the United States that instead of sanction-

ing maybe you should try the rehabilitation you know as a principle. I don’t think that’s necessarily wrong. But harmonization with the rest of the world is difficult if that’s your priority.” Reedie was speaking a day after an event in Washington where Olympic athletes joined the acting White House drug czar and anti-doping officials from seven other countries in calling on the WADA to reform its governance. “They’ve been saying roughly this for the last two and half years,” Reedie said. “It’s repetitive.” Reedie has another year to go in his second three-year term as WADA president. His tenure began in 2013. The WADA presidency rotates between representatives of governments and sporting bodies. The agency gets half of its funding from governments around the world and the other half from the Olympic movement.

Despite WADA investigators finding that a state-sponsored doping program was run from Moscow, the Russians haven’t had to accept the full findings before being readmitted to the antidoping agency, which allows them to test athletes again. When Russia was suspended, international sports federations were unable to schedule events in the country. But on Thursday, the amateur boxing association chose Russia to host the 2019 Women’s World Championships — the country’s first worlds event since the national anti-doping agency was reinstated in September. The whole saga, Reedie said, has taken a toll on his home life and he added that he did not enjoy reading newspaper articles calling for his resignation. “I don’t think,” Reedie said, “the world gets better by me not being there.”

Biles becomes first woman to win 4 all-around world titles By WILL GRAVES AP Sports Writer

DOHA, Qatar — Simone Biles attempted to smile but her eyes betrayed her. She was angry, paying little attention to the gold medal around her neck, the one that made history. Yes, winning never gets old. It’s just not why she does this. The challenge whenever the greatest gymnast of her and any other generation steps onto the floor isn’t to impress the judges so much as to meet her own impossibly high standards. The one that keeps nudging the 21-year-old to propel herself and her sport forward. And for two hours Thursday, for the first time in a long time, the momentum slowed. At least in the eyes of Biles, who didn’t exactly sound like someone who had just become the first woman to win four world all-around championships, a feat she pulled off despite a handful of uncharacteristic errors to beat Japan’s Mai Murakami

and American teammate Morgan Hurd by more than 1.6 points. It’s a sizable margin for nearly everyone else, but not for Biles. Battling a kidney stone that she insists is manageable, she sat down her vault in the first rotation, came off the beam on her third and stepped out of bounds on floor exercise. “It’s not the gymnast that I am, to go out there and kind of bomb a meet like this,” said Biles after posting an allaround score of 57.491. “Even though I won, I wish it were a little bit different.” Only it wasn’t, a testament to the massive difficulty Biles packs into each event. What she’s doing on floor exercise is as hard as anything the men can come up with. The vault — the one that will carry her name when code of points is updated — is so tough no other woman even attempts it in competition. Doing anything else would be “boring” as her coach Laurent Landi put it. Yet Biles doesn’t use the remarkably high start values of her routines as

an excuse when she doesn’t hit them. There is no grading on a curve, at least not in her head. Biles jokingly asked Landi if she needed an 18 — a score not currently possible in gymnastics — heading into her floor exercise to catch Murakami. The deficit was actually 13.308 points, totally doable. Biles briefly thought about toning down her boundary pushing set for something a bit easier just to make sure she won. The internal wavering was fleeting. “I would never,” Biles said. Playing it safe simply isn’t her style. While her right foot did slip into the red out of bounds during her first tumbling pass, it hardly mattered. Her score of 15.000 was more than enough to rocket past Murakami and Hurd, the 2017 world champion. “It’s absolutely insane that she fell twice and won,” Hurd said. “I have no words.” Neither did Biles, at least not any positive ones. Most meets with Biles typically

start the same. She drills the vault — where she is the reigning Olympic champion — and then spends the next three rotations simply padding her lead to margins that look like typos. Not this time. Attempting “the Biles” — a roundoff, half-twist onto the table, front double full off typically done by men — her left arm barely touched the table, causing her to under-rotate. She landed and promptly sat down, her score of 14.533 placing her in third. Known for getting angry with herself after mistakes, she responded with her significantly improved uneven bars set and executed her doubletwisting double-somersault dismount to move slightly in front of Hurd halfway through. Then things got weird. Biles came off the beam early, hopped back up then grabbed the 4-inch piece of wood moments later when she had trouble landing a front flip, a sequence she struggled with during qualifying. It was a stunning

sequence, not just to Biles but to the group that has been chasing her for the better part of decade. Given what looked like an opening, Murakami — the first Japanese woman to win a world all-around medal in nine years — kept it real. “Instead of expecting I can win, I felt like, ‘oh, Biles can fall,’” Murakami said. Hurd had a chance to catch her good friend but wobbled twice during her own beam set, leaving the 17-yearold in a “rage” as she headed to floor while also leaving Biles in the lead, where she is the Olympic champion. While Hurd put together what U.S. high performance coordinator Tom Forster called “the best routine I’ve ever seen her do” it wasn’t quite enough to slide past Murakami. Still, Biles stepped onto the floor facing external pressure for the first time in a long time. She came through but her emotions on the medal stand tilted more toward disappointment than joy.

. . . Ritchie

Lubos Bartecko convinced Ritchie and his linemates to get into the gym. Ritchie said he noticed the difference immediately when the season started. He put up 23 goals and 13 assists in 36 games last season with the 18U team after just three goals and four assists in 30 games during the previous season. What really stood out to Petrich about the 5-foot-11, 190-pound player was faceoffs. “He’s one of the best I’ve ever coached,” Petrich said, adding that Ritchie is winning almost two-thirds of his faceoffs this season. Ritchie said he hates losing at anything and that serves him well at faceoffs. “I just go in there and have a plan in my head not to let the other guy beat me,” Ritchie said. His first preference is always to win the puck clean, but if he is having trouble with his opponent, he’s always willing to tie up and let his wings come in and try to help. Ritchie said his goal is to earn a Division I scholarship by improving as a two-way center. He’d like to keep improving on defense and get quicker with his skating. Petrich said Ritchie needs more lower body strength to develop an extra step as a skater. Thus far, Ritchie had three goals and four assists in 16 games. He’s happy he chose the Kenai Peninsula to do those things. “I love playing in front of the fans here,” Ritchie said. “At AAA, you’re playing in front of parents. It’s 100 fans compared to over 1,000 here. Playing in front of them is awesome.”

the car. “I love it here,” said Ritchie, adding he’s the type of guy who’d rather be in a jacket and sweatpants than trying to deal with extreme heat. “I looked up at the sky and there were stars galore. I’m not used to seeing that.” Ritchie has one season left of junior eligibility after this season. He graduated from high school with a grade-point average of over 4.0 and also was over 30 on the ACT. Petrich said those type of academics open up all the Division I schools to Ritchie. “You’ll go to the Showcase and see the hard schools to get into have sheets full of X’s because of the grades,” Petrich said. “That’s what’s exciting about him. He’s done the work to make all the schools available to him.” Ritchie started excelling in school way before he excelled in hockey. In elementary school, he said his parents would always make him complete homework before playing outside or watching television. That skill for organizing his time served him well as he started working his way up through the Blues program and spending more and more time practicing. Although he started skating at 3 and playing with teams when he was 5, Ritchie did not make a AAA team until he was 16. He said coach Michael Berra helped him develop more and more skill. Then, before last season, his coach and former NHL player

Series preview: Brown Bears vs. Blues By JEFF HELMINIAK Peninsula Clarion

The Kenai River Brown Bears and Springfield (Illinois) Jr. Blues will be looking to snap out of recent funks when they meet Friday and Saturday at 7:30 p.m. at the Soldotna Regional Sports Complex in North American Hockey League play. The Bears, who start a seven-game homestand, are 8-7-01, good for fourth place with 17 points in a tight Midwest Division. Fairbanks is third with 18 points, Janesville (Wisconsin) is second with 19 points and the Minnesota Magicians are in first with 24 points. Springfield is in fifth with 13 points. The Brown Bears had been in first place in the Midwest

before hitting a 1-4-0-1 rough patch. Last weekend, Kenai River lost 3-1 and 5-2 to the Corpus Christi (Texas) IceRays in what head coach Josh Petrich called the team’s worst performance of the season. “Last weekend was the first time I looked out there and said, ‘Wow. We’re not playing well,’” Petrich said. “Through success comes contentment. Elite teams don’t do that. They don’t take the weekend off.” The big question now is how the team responds, especially returning to home ice. “Last week we got punched in the face,” Petrich said. “We’re going to find out who really wants it and who doesn’t.” Springfield is on a fourgame losing streak. In late Sep-

tember, the Bears played at the Blues and won 3-2 in overtime before losing 3-2. Petrich said Jr. Blues forward Brandon Puricelli leads the team with 10 goals and presents problems when he is on the ice. The coach added fellow forward Nikita Kozyrev finds the big sheet at the sports complex to his liking. Forward Zach Krajnik of Eagle River leads the Bears with 15 points, but after that three of the next four leading scorers for the team are defensemen. Markuss Komuls and JJ Boucher each have 13 points, while Connor Scahill has nine. Forward Michael Spethmann has 12 and leads the team with seven goals. “It’s great for those three,

but it’s a concerning piece for our forwards,” Petrich said. “It shows the defensemen are doing a good job getting pucks to the net, but obviously the forwards aren’t getting to the net and scoring.” Petrich said special teams also will be a key to the series. The Bears are second in the league on the power play, while the Jr. Blues are 17th. On the penalty kill, Springfield is 10th and Kenai River is 22nd. “Special teams is such a big part of our game right now,” Petrich said. Bears notes: Metalizing Inc. is the VIP on Friday, while Saturday will have fans judging pumpkins carved by the Bears and a Skate with the Bears after the game.

Police reports n On Aug. 4, Alaska Wildlife Troopers began an investigation of a commercial fishing violation in Seward. Investigation resulted in mandatory court appearance citations being issued to Anatoly Reutov, 39, of Sterling, and Irmil Reutov, 40, of Homer, for violations of individual fish quota reporting requirements, which carries a maximum fine of $3,000. Both defendants were given court dates of Oct. 30. n On Oct. 13 at 10:53 a.m., Alaska State Troopers received a report from concerned family members that Kathy Vancleve, 58, of Anchorage, might be deceased in her RV. Troopers responded to Vancleve’s property in Ninilchik and located the RV. A person inside the RV was not cooperative and Southern State Emergency Response Team (SERT) was activated and responded. Attempts to make verbal contact with the occupant of the RV continued to be unsuccessful. A search warrant was obtained for the RV, and it was subsequently searched. A highly intoxicated man was located inside the RV. A deceased

measure defines what effects are significant and what aren’t. Here’s a condensed description of projects with significant adverse effects: • Development that impairs or degrades habitat characteristics as defined the measure. That includes changing the stream temperature or seasonal flow regimes, bank and bed stability, habitat diversity, or the safe and timely passage of fish up and down streams. • Development that interferes with or prevents spawning, rearing or migration at any life stage, or increases conditions known to cause fish death. • Anything that lowers the capacity of anadromous waters to maintain aquatic diversity, productivity or stability, or impairs any additional criteria adapted by Fish and Game through regulation. If Fish and Game finds a project poses a risk of significant adverse effects, that triggers the major permitting track. Basically, it that track includes a few extra

steps developers must take to assure they are doing all they can to avoid harming fish. It doesn’t mean the permit will be denied, but it does lengthen the approval process and may make it more expensive for both the state and applicants. Once Fish and Game classifies a project as major, the first step is for the department to prepare a draft permit assessment. That would detail the extent and timing of the project, as well as its potential adverse effects. The assessment would look at what possible alternatives or modifications could be put in place to lessen harm to habitat. Ballot Measure 1 lists which changes applicants would have to consider first. An applicant would have to consider whether they can prevent adverse effects by moving the site, timing or management of the project. If the project can’t be done somewhere else, or at a different time, Ballot Measure 1 then allows applicants to look at whether or not they can minimize adverse

effects by limiting the project’s size or duration. If that’s not possible, permit applicants could look at how they could restore affected habitat after the life of the project. Fish and Game would then determine whether any of those alternatives would mitigate any, or at least some, habitat harm in a timely manner. This determination would be listed on the assessment. It basically signals whether or not Fish and Game plans to approve the project. Major permits will also require a bond, which would cover the cost of restoring fish habitat should a developer not follow its permit conditions. That cost would be listed in the draft assessment. A permit applicant would be required to pay for the work the assessment costs. This isn’t far from current practice, as permit applicants already pay the Habitat Division to help them design projects for the “proper protection of fish,” managers say. Once prepared, the major permit assessment gets posted online

and a 30-day public comment period opens. Comments are considered when drafting a final assessment, which also gets posted online. Fish and Game includes a permit determination — a rubber stamp or a denial — on the final assessment. A major permit could get approval if it does several things. It has hold a public comment period and post a bond for reclamation. Approval would only be granted if the alternatives or modifications applicants agree to are enforceable and mandatory. What it costs How much Ballot Measure 1 may slow permitting down, and how much more costly the process becomes, would depend partly on how the State of Alaska funds certain state agencies, and how much of that cost they pass on to permit applicants. Four state agencies have said the measure would cost a total of just over $3 million. In an FAQ provided to voters, Fish and Game said the annual cost increase would be about

$1,319,000 for at least five years. The Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities estimated they’d need about $953,900 annually to fund eight new full-time positions. That figure doesn’t include things like office furniture, supplies or phone and IT services, or the increase in project costs for delays or additional habitat surveys. The Department of Environmental Conservation said they’d need $282,600 annually, partly due to the measure making Division of Water permits more complex and broad. DEC would also need money for new training and more in-state travel, according to the FAQ. The Department of Law said they’d need to fund two additional full-time civil attorneys to perform legal work created by the initiative. They estimate Ballot Measure 1 would cost Law an additional $450,000 annually. A fifth state agency affected by the measure, Alaska Department of Natural Resources, said it does not anticipate any cost increase.

Mom’s peaceful death leads to sibling war over her house or the degree to which he is self-centered, I’m having trouble understanding his overreaction. Was he desperate for a place to stay for a year? I wish you had mentioned what your other brother thinks about this regrettable situation and whether he, too, was disowned. If he and your angry sibling are on speaking Abigail Van Buren terms, perhaps he can help to mend fences. And hold a good thought. Sometimes time heals these kinds of wounds, once grief lessens and people regain their perspective. DEAR ABBY: “Addicted in Kansas City” (Aug. 24) asked you for secular alternatives to Alcoholics Anonymous. There are parts of your response that I feel need clarification. First of all, AA doesn’t require lifetime attendance at meetings. AA doesn’t “require” anything. (The third tradition states the only requirement for membership is a desire to stop drinking.) Regular attendance at meetings is encouraged but certainly not a requirement.

Many people continue to go to meetings one or more times a week, while others stop or go only occasionally after a period of time. The other point is tougher -- and perhaps more subtle. AA encourages individuals trying to get sober to find a “God of their own understanding,” a Higher Power, SOMETHING bigger than themselves. Many agnostics and atheists get and stay sober in AA. AA is a spiritual program, not a religious one. This can be a difficult concept for people who are just coming in (and a great reason not to stay). That’s one of the reasons AA encourages anyone new to attend different meetings, if possible, and check out other groups. In many cities there are meetings expressly for atheists and other nonbelievers. -- SOBER AND HAPPY IN ATLANTA DEAR SOBER: Thank you for writing to clarify this. However, there are different programs (different strokes for different folks), which is why I also encourage anyone trying to achieve sobriety to research and explore the alternatives. 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.

PHONY PHONE CALLS Dear Heloise: Please tell your readers to be very careful if they get late-night phone calls from someone claiming to be their child or grandchild, weeping or sounding as though they are in a stressful situation. The caller tells you they need money to get out of a Mexican jail, or they’ve been in an accident and are injured, or their baby desperately needs an operation. This is just another scammer calling you, not a relative. DON’T send any money. Call family members first to see if the story is real. It usually isn’t! -- James and Casey D. in Boston James and Casey, we’ve received a number of letters mentioning this problem. For more information on what to do if you should happen to get a telephone call from a phony child or grandchild, go to www.fbi.gov and sign up for its email alerts. For email scams, please contact the Internet Crime Complaint Center at www.ic3.gov. -- Heloise RUB-A-DUB-DUB Dear Heloise: Here’s a nice hint to use on chilly mornings: While you’re taking a warm bath, put a tightly sealed jar or bottle of body lotion into the tub with you. When you get out, it will be nice and toasty warm for rubbing into your skin. -- Ava K., Park City, Kan. THREADING A NEEDLE Dear Heloise: As I get older, I find it very difficult to thread needles. Quite by accident I found that if I put the needles in a chunk of wax, that holds them firmly, and I can easily thread a needle. If necessary, I use a magnifying glass in the other hand. -- Cora P., Ashburn, Va. LETTER OF LAUGHTER Dear Heloise: My husband asked his brother what the difference was between “being good-looking” and “looking good.” His brother said, “I don’t know.” My husband replied, “The difference is 30 years and 40 pounds.” -- A Reader, via email

DEAR ABBY: My mom recently passed away at 91. She had a great life and went peacefully at home in bed during the night. I took charge of her medical care and finances after Dad died 10 years ago. After Mom’s funeral, my brother insisted he would move into her house while he remodeled it, which could tie up the house for a year. It made no sense to me. I am Mom’s executor, and I felt it was unfair to me and my other brother. When I said no, he got really angry, accused me of many mean, untrue things and announced that he disowned me. I responded that I love him and he will always be my brother, but it was his choice. The pain of losing my mom AND my brother has been awful. Now I’m working to sell the house, and he interferes and is mean every step of the way. But I have to move ahead and do my job. I don’t respond to anything negative he writes. Have you some advice on how to repair our relationship? Maybe if he saw it in print he would realize we are family and none of this is helpful to any of us. -- DOUBLE LOSS IN CALIFORNIA DEAR DOUBLE LOSS: Please accept my sympathy for the loss of your mother. If it’s any comfort, estate problems like you’re experiencing aren’t all that unusual. Not knowing your brother
