In the news Honduran migrant caravan arrives at Guatemala border OCOTOPEQUE, Honduras — Hundreds of Honduran migrants arrived at the Guatemalan border under a broiling sun Monday hoping to make it to new lives in the United States, far from the poverty and violence of their home nation. Singing the Honduran national anthem, praying and chanting, “Yes, we can,” the caravan estimated at around 1,600-strong insisted they would travel on through Guatemala and Mexico despite the insistence of Guatemalan authorities that the group would not be allowed to pass. “We have rights,” the migrants shouted. Keilin Umana, a 21year-old who is two months pregnant, said she was moved to migrate to save herself and her unborn child after she was threatened with death. “A letter arrived at my house saying I could not stay, that I had to leave, or else they were going to kill me,” said Umana, who is a nurse. “I was in hiding awhile,” she added. “It’s because I have this tattoo on my hand — it’s not a gang thing. Look, it’s the name of my father and mother.” Umana said she had been walking for four days. “We are not criminals — we are migrants,” she said.

California utilities shut off power amid wildfire concerns SAN FRANCISCO — Concerned about downed power lines sparking wildfires, two major California utilities took the rare step of cutting power to customers amid high winds — and another power provider was considering similar action. The move came as strong winds swept California, knocking down trees and power lines. One woman was killed when a tree fell onto her car. In Northern California, Pacific Gas & Electric for the first time began cutting power Sunday night to tens of thousands of customers after the National Weather Service warned of extreme fire danger across the state due to high winds, low humidity and dry vegetation. San Diego Gas & Electric followed suit Monday, turning off power to about 360 customers in foothill areas near Cleveland National Forest, where multiple blazes have scorched large swaths of land in recent years. SDG&E has pre-emptively shut off power to customers in the past, most recently in December when 14,000 customers went without power — many for four days.

Working to unite a community In a place as spread out as peninsula, public transportation presents a challenge By VICTORIA PETERSEN Peninsula Clarion

The Kenai Peninsula is nearly the size of West Virginia with small towns and unincorporated communities sprinkled throughout. Without a car or other means of transportation, it can be difficult for people to maintain employment, make it to appointments and get to school. That’s why several local entities are working to make it easier for people to get around. One of the newest programs is called BUMPS, or Basic Unified Multi-Path Service. The two-bus public transportation system is run by the Ninilchik Traditional Council. During a community transportation meeting hosted by Change 4 the Kenai, a coaltion working toward uniting the community, on Oct. 9, Ninilchik Village Tribe board director Jamie Leman said that BUMPS ridership is increasing. “We have over 16,000 passenger miles accumulated to date, which really isn’t that much,” Leman said. “There are quite a few riders from Homer who are stepping onboard. It’s a diverse group of people.” Leman said the schedule will remain the same until the tribe can get more funding. Tribal funds and Federal Transit Administration grants have made the program, and its potential growth, possible. The tribe applied for an FTA grant

of $551,000 to build garages, where they can house the buses in the winter months. BUMPS began operations in early 2018, the Clarion previously reported. There are two buses that run Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays through Ninilchik, Happy Valley, Anchor Point, Homer, Clam Gulch, Kasilof, Soldotna and Kenai. A one-way ticket is $7, and round trip is $10. The route is fixed, with stops in central locations in each commu-

nity, such as the Cheeky Moose in Anchor Point, the Soldotna Fred Meyer and the Kasilof post office. The system is open to the public and is ADA accessible. There are a few other programs available on the peninsula for those who do not have a vehicle. Central Area Rural Transit System, or CARTS, has been providing public transportation on the peninsula since the early 2000s. They do not operate

south of Kasilof, and suspended voucher services in Homer and weekend services on the central peninsula in 2017, the Clarion previously reported. For many on the peninsula, their job is not within walking distance of their home. The average Kenai Peninsula Borough resident who is 16 years old or older has an 18-minute commute, according to the U.S. Census American Community Survey estimates for 2012 to 2016.

The peninsula’s Independent Living Center is also working to help residents have easier access to public transit through a grant-funded voucher program. The Alaska Community Transit for Human Services grant from the Alaska Department of Transportation works to help the elderly and those with mobility issues. In the past, the voucher program has partnered with AAA Alaska Cab, which has a 23-vehicle See BUS, page A2

School board focuses on student safety By VICTORIA PETERSEN Peninsula Clarion

The number of students being assessed as suicide risks is seeing an uptick in Kenai Peninsula schools During Monday’s Kenai Peninsula Borough School District Board of Education work session on school safety, assistant superintendent of instruction John O’Brien presented data regarding students who may be experiencing childhood trauma and adverse childhood experiences. As of Monday, 45 students have been given suicide threat assessments this year. O’Brien said last year, the school district received 140 threat assessments, the highest number ever. Also as of Monday morning, there were 60 referrals to the Office of Children’s Services so far this year. “The mental health of our students is very important,” O’Brien said. Clayton Holland of Pupil Services, which works with special education in the district, continued the presentation fo-

cusing on the topic of bullying. “School climate and culture impacts bullying on students,” Holland said at Monday’s work session. The district uses threat assessments for students who may be of concern. “It could be a direct threat, a threat on social media or some unusual behavior occurring,” Holland said. Holland said a safety tip line is in the works. The line would potentially cover bullying, suicide, threats to facilities and other threats to student safety. Assistant superintendent Dave Jones gave an overview of the district’s emergency plans. “It’s important for people to know and understand our emergency guidelines and processes,” Jones said. He said it’s important for parents to keep contact information current with the school district, in case of an emergency. Last week, three schools in Soldotna went in to stay put mode after a person of concern was roaming the areas near the schools. Unlike a lockdown,

stay put mode means the unlocked doors in the facility become locked, and a security guard will man the door until there is no longer a threat. The board then discussed the possibility of removing opencampus lunch hours in select schools as an extra security measure. “How secure do you want your buildings?” the district

planning and operations director David May said. “I just want to ensure, before any arbitrary decisions are done, that we include student council input for anything that’s going to change, literally, the culture of many of our schools, especially our high schools,” school board member Mike Illg said. “I don’t think (open-campus

lunches) are necessarily a benefit of being able to come and go. I think it’s part of their development, to make connections, responsibility. There’s a lot more going on with an open-campus than just going out and getting a sandwich.” The board also discussed the possibility of implementing key cards to control who has access to district facilities.

New school board members sworn in By VICTORIA PETERSEN Peninsula Clarion

Newly elected school board members were sworn in during a special Kenai Peninsula Borough School District Board of Education meeting Monday morning. Greg Madden and Mike Illg, who had previously served on the school board, gave their oath of office. Matthew Morse, who won the District 2 school board seat in Kenai, was not present. Madden won over 15-year school board

incumbent Marty Anderson in a highly contentious four-way race. The school board also welcomed their new student representatives, Tanis Lorring of Soldotna High School and Joseph Yourkoski of Nikiski High School. Lorring was selected as the school board representative. Yourkoski was chosen to represent the Board of Education Information Committee. Both students were selected at the Sept. 11 districtwide student Mike Illg and Greg Madden are sworn in to the Kenai Peninsula Borough School District Board of Education on Monday in Soldotna.

fleet, including six accessible minivans. The program has existed for 21 years on the central peninsula and has served 544 riders in the last four years, according to the grant application. In Homer, the program has been around for 18 years and has served 270 riders in the last four years. Two separate grant applications must be submitted for the central peninsula and the Homer area. The central peninsula and Homer grant are asking for the same amount of money as last year, which was $90,000 for the central peninsula and $50,000 for Homer. Last year, the central peninsula received only $45,000 and Homer received the total $50,000 requested. Both grants require a smaller match in rider fees. Joyanna Geisler, the executive director of the Independent Living Center, said at the Oct. 9 meeting that the grant application is a competitive process statewide. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Historically, both projects have been funded even though Homer competes against central peninsula,â&#x20AC;? Geisler said. The grants must be supported by the areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s governmental agency, which is the Kenai Peninsula Borough Assembly. Geisler said sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to local governments get more involved in area public transit. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What many of us have been talking about is having municipality and local governments having some skin in the game,â&#x20AC;? Geisler said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They can have some roles and responsibilities for planning or contribution of resources, whether thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s staffing resources or actual money spent. â&#x20AC;Ś In my opinion, the borough and local governments have some responsibility for planning for that and assisting in getting services delivered.â&#x20AC;? The Independent Living Center grant applications will be sent to the Borough Assembly to be considered for support later this month.

Angeles Peralta Poage 1929-2018

Longtime Kenai resident, Mrs. Angeles Peralta Poage, 89, died Friday, Oct. 12, 2018 at the Kenai Senior Center in Kenai. A Memorial Mass will be held at 12:30 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 20, 2018 at Our Lady of The Angels Catholic Church, 225 South Spruce Ave – Kenai. Reception will follow services at the Kenai Senior Center at 2:00 p.m. Angeles was born Sept. 1, 1929 in Carmen, Cebu, Philippines. She moved to Alaska in November of 1969. She first lived in Nikiski and then Kenai up until the present. Angie was a member Our Lady of The Angels Catholic Church in Kenai. She volunteered at the Kenai Senior Center and loved playing pinnacle and bingo. The family wrote, “One of the special qualities is how she could make someone smile on a bad day and her smile could brighten someone’s day. We have lots of memories of her, she always had a way of bringing our family together and just how she was always happy and cheerful and always loved to lend a helping hand.” She was preceded in death by her husband, Floyd Poage, Sr.; step-son, Smokey Poage; daughter, Maria Peralta Poage; siblings, Manuel A. Peralta; Raymundo A. Peralta, Jr. Constancio A. Peralta, FE P. Suelto and Constancia P. Lazaro.

Today in History Today is Tuesday, Oct. 16, the 289th day of 2018. There are 76 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Oct. 16, 1793, during the French Revolution, Marie Antoinette, the queen of France, was beheaded. On this date: In 1758, American lexicographer Noah Webster was born in Hartford, Connecticut. In 1859, radical abolitionist John Brown led a group of 21 men in a raid on Harpers Ferry in western Virginia. (Ten of Brown’s men were killed and five escaped. Brown and six followers were captured; all were executed.) In 1916, Planned Parenthood had its beginnings as Margaret Sanger and her sister, Ethel Byrne, opened the first birth control clinic in Brooklyn, New York. (The clinic ended up being raided by police and Sanger was arrested.) In 1934, Chinese Communists, under siege by the Nationalists, began their “long march” lasting a year from southeastern to northwestern China. In 1962, the Cuban missile crisis began as President John F. Kennedy was informed that reconnaissance photographs had revealed the presence of missile bases in Cuba. In 1968, American athletes Tommie Smith and John Carlos sparked controversy at the Mexico City Olympics by giving “black power” salutes during a victory ceremony after they’d won gold and bronze medals in the 200-meter race. In 1978, the College of Cardinals of the Roman Catholic Church chose Cardinal Karol Wojtyla (voy-TEE’wah) to be the new pope; he took the name John Paul II. In 1987, a 58-1/2-hour drama in Midland, Texas, ended happily as rescuers freed Jessica McClure, an 18-month-old girl trapped in a narrow, abandoned well. In 1991, a deadly shooting rampage took place in Killeen, Texas, as a gunman opened fire at a Luby’s Cafeteria, killing 23 people before taking his own life. In 1995, a vast throng of black men gathered in Washington, D.C. for the “Million Man March” led by Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan. In 1997, in the first known case in the United States, a Georgia woman gave birth after being implanted with previously frozen eggs. In 2001, twelve Senate offices were closed as hundreds of staffers underwent anthrax tests. Ten years ago: A volatile Wall Street pulled off another stunning U-turn, transforming a 380-point loss for the Dow Jones industrial average into a 401-point gain. Five years ago: Congress passed and sent to President Barack Obama for his signature legislation to avoid a threatened U.S. default and end the partial, 16-day government shutdown. A Lao Airlines turboprop crashed as it approached Pakse Airport in southern Laos; all 49 people on board were killed. The Los Angeles Dodgers beat St. Louis 6-4, trimming the Cardinals’ lead to 3-2 in the NL championship series. The Detroit Tigers beat the Boston Red Sox 7-3 to even the AL championship series at 2-all. One year ago: Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, who had been captured and held by the Taliban for five years after walking away from his post in Afghanistan, pleaded guilty to desertion and endangering his comrades. (A military judge later decided not to send him to prison.) A New Jersey man, Ahmad Khan Rahimi, was convicted of planting two pressure-cooker bombs on New York City streets, including one that injured 30 people; prosecutors said Rahimi considered himself “a soldier in a holy war against Americans.” Today’s Birthdays: Actress Angela Lansbury is 93. Actor Peter Bowles is 82. Actor-producer Tony Anthony is 81. Actor Barry Corbin is 78. Sportscaster Tim McCarver is 77. Rock musician C.F. Turner (Bachman-Turner Overdrive) is 75.

What Others Say

‘Journalism matters. Now more than ever’ “Journalism matters. Now more than ever.” This is the 78th year National Newspaper Week has been celebrated. With each year comes a theme and the above quote represents the theme for 2018. Sadly, we could not agree more. The Index-Journal was born in 1919, just 22 years before the annual week celebrating newspapers was launched, the result of a merger between two newspapers that served the Greenwood community. In our nearly 100 years of service, first to greater Greenwood and now to an expanded community referred to as the Lakelands, we have certainly taken our share of hits and lumps along with others in our chosen profession, but not so much to the level as we witness nowadays. This is not a “woe is us” cry, an effort to seek out anyone’s sympathy. Trust us, as long as there have been newspapers — any news medium, for that matter — there have been critics. As the saying goes, you can’t satisfy everyone all of the time, and we certainly recognize that where one is pleased another is not. And we even recognize that the news business has changed dramatically through the ages. Bias in newspapers has existed in the past and, yes, there are newspapers, radio programs, TV broadcasts, podcasts, websites, bloggers and more that produce opinion veiled as objective reporting. We could dig up material in our own archives that no doubt reflects a reporting bias of one sort or another. Sad examples committed by this and other newspapers years ago, especially in the South, reflect racial bias. No one is or should be claiming purity. With that said, however, we know and will defend this newspaper’s overall history of doing what it should, which is to make every effort to fairly and accurately report on the community it serves. As we have admitted in this space before, we absolutely do get the news wrong sometimes. We are human, and we are also quick to admit and correct our errors. Those mistakes are not purposeful or part of some larger scheme, if you will. To borrow a current pet phrase, there is no collusion. No, we are simply a small group of reporters and editors dedicated to committing journalism. … But we are not about covering the goings on within Washington’s Beltways. We are not about unearthing the next Watergate anymore than we were ever involved in any sort of clandestine plot to unseat a Lakelands high school principal a dozen years ago. Much of what we do is simply report and inform. We believe that to be our reason to exist — to mirror as best we can all facets of the community and be vigilant watchdogs on behalf of taxpayers. If in doing so we somehow build more civic and community involvement, so be it. That is not bias; that is our being a part of the community we serve and in which we live. … Absolutely we do weigh in on matters affecting the community. … We do our due diligence, however, to separate opinion from fact. … After all, would the purveyors of fake news, would the enemy of the people gladly report on local litter cleanup campaigns, cat cafe gatherings, nonprofits’ fundraisers and the like? — Index-Journal of Greenwood (South Carolina), Oct. 7

Why would anyone vote for Democrats?

Given what the Trump administration is saying are record achievements for a president at this stage in office, why would anyone consider voting for Democrats in the upcoming midterm elections? Writing in The Washington Examiner, Paul Bedard lists 289 accomplishments of the Trump administration, beginning with the obvious one, the economy: “They include 173 major wins, such as adding more than 4 million jobs, and another 116 smaller victories, some with outsize importance, such as the 83 percent one-year increase in arrests of MS-13 gang members.” They also include two justices now on the Supreme Court and 82 other federal judges confirmed to lower courts. As the White House has touted, unemployment in all demographics is the lowest it has been since 1969. Despite a recent blip in the stock market, portfolios have grown fatter since Trump became president. An analysis in The Wall Street Journal predicts economic growth is likely to continue “for years.” Other positives include updated trade deals with Mexico and Canada that will produce benefits for American manufacturers and workers far more than the old NAFTA deal ever did. Consumer confidence reached an 18year high in September, according to Lynn Franco, director of Economic Indicators at The Conference Board, which conducts the Conference Board Consumer Confidence Index(R).

Top this off with the successfully negotiated release of Pastor Andrew Brunson from a Turkish prison and a more realistic foreign policy in confronting America’s enemies. According to Cal Thomas Gallup’s weekly tracking poll, for the week of Oct. 7, the president’s approval rating jumped a percentage point, from 42 percent to 43 percent. His disapproval rating holds at 53 percent, though that number is down three percentage points from the week of Sept. 16. Rasmussen, which tends to be more favorable toward Republicans, puts the president’s approval at 51 percent. That is higher than President Obama achieved at a similar point in his presidency. Presidential polling does not necessarily forecast voter behavior in state and local races, though one Quinnipiac University Poll shows that Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) has a nine-point likely voter lead over his opponent Rep. Beto O’Rourke (D-Texas). In view of Republican successes, including tax cuts and the booming economy, what Democratic policies would produce results better than these? Other than spite for the president, why would voters elect candidates who want to return to a past where things were far different?

Do people who didn’t have jobs during the previous administration want to embrace policies that kept them unemployed? Do businesses once prevented from hiring people because of regulations now wish to have regulations re-imposed and to lay off workers they recently hired? By what logic do some people wish to return to the recent past, including a recent past that includes Republican presidents who cannot lay claim to the type of successes President Trump is enjoying? Perhaps most amazing is the president’s growing approval among African-American voters, whose votes he is openly campaigning for as evidenced by rapper Kanye West’s endorsement and the president’s reciprocal embrace. USA Today reported on a new Rasmussen poll that shows “approval rating among African Americans is at 36 percent, nearly double his support at this time last year.” Despite the NAACP’s hostility toward the president, African-American voters seem focused more on results than symbolism. Polls have been wrong in the past -- take the 2016 election as the latest example -- but the president has begun touting his record while campaigning for candidates. That record appears to be resonating with voters, at least in some states. Never has the Ronald Reagan question “Are you better off than you were four years ago” seemed more relevant. Never has the answer appeared more obvious. (Readers may email Cal Thomas at tcaeditors@tribpub.com.)

Attorneys general: Ballot Measure 1 is bad law As former attorneys general, and Alaskans fortunate enough to call this great state home, we urge Alaskans to vote “No” on Ballot Measure 1. The citizens who drafted our state constitution understood that the protection of our natural resources was of the utmost importance, but they also acknowledged that a state with an abundance of natural resources, yet thinly populated and with little connectivity in terms of a road system, would have to rely on the responsible development. This principle is best expressed in Article VIII, Section 1 of our constitution, which states that “[i]t is the policy of the State to encourage the settlement of its land and the development of its resources by making them available for maximum use consistent with the public interest.” Ballot Measure 1 disrupts this balance to the detriment of all Alaskans. The Alaska Supreme Court recently ruled that the initiative could remain on the ballot, but only after striking its unconstitutional sections. However, even after striking the most onerous provisions, the court observed that “viewed as a whole,” it was apparent that Ballot Measure 1 would create a broad new definition of what is protected fish habitat and make Alaska’s “fish habitat protection statutes significantly more restrictive.” For example, Ballot Measure 1 contains, according to the Alaska Supreme Court, “a plethora of undefined terms.” For landown-

force a landowner to pay for an expensive habitat study to prove that fish will not be impacted by a planned improvement. Worse, Ballot Measure 1 changes the penalties from civil to criminal for property owners who fail to secure the required permits. Failure to seek a permit for even minor construction activity in a river flood plain, which encompasses huge areas of Alaska, will make individual Alaskans, workers on municipal projects, and business owners criminals under our laws. We are not alone in expressing grave doubts. We join dozens of groups and organizations in opposing this Ballot Measure. Contractors, regional and village native corporations, labor unions, resource development and energy companies, and responsible Alaskans are rightfully concerned that another significant project may never be built in this state if the initiative passes — and this would certainly be true for rural Alaska as well. Ballot Measure 1 is a bad law. It has not been subject to public comment, hearings, or review by regulators or independent scientists. Alaska deserves better than Ballot Measure 1, and we urge Alaskan voters to reject this fatally flawed measure when they vote on November 6.

ers trying to comply with the law, this is a step in the wrong direction — and this is just as true for an entity seeking to develop a large mine as it is for land owners wishing to install a culvert on their property. It also radically expands the opportunity for legal challenges to granted permits, allowing anyone to challenge a permit in court resulting in costly delays and endless litigation. Under current laws and regulations, studies are required to determine whether a body of water contains certain kinds of fish. If Ballot Measure 1 passes, this flips, and all waters in the state will be assumed to be fish habitat until proved otherwise. This has the potential to create a legal quagmire for property owners, especially private citizens. Thousands of Alaskans have riverfront or lake front property, and there are many improvements to property that might impact — Craig Richards, John Burns, Michael a body of water, such as a stream, running Geraghty, Dave Marquez, Dan Sullivan via on private property.

Maple Leafs stay hot, beat Kings By The Associated Press

TORONTO — Garret Sparks made 33 saves in a surprise start, Kasperi Kapanen scored twice and the Toronto Maple Leafs beat the Los Angeles Kings 4-1 Monday night for their fifth straight win. Patrick Marleau and Mitch Marner also scored to help Toronto win for the sixth time in seven games. Auston Matthews and Jake Gardiner each added two assists. Ilya Kovalchuk scored for the Kings, who have lost four of six (2-3-1). Jack Campbell stopped 21 shots for Los Angeles. Maple Leafs coach Mike Babcock announced Sparks as the game’s starter ahead of No. 1 goalie Frederik Andersen after the morning skate.

Drouin scored twice, Tomas Plekanec had a goal in his 1,000th game, and Montreal beat winless Detroit. Tomas Tatar, Brendan Gallagher, Charles Hudon and Paul Byron also scored for the Canadiens. With Carey Price still out with the flu, backup goalie Antti Niemi stopped 25 shots for his second consecutive victory. Andreas Athanasiou had two goals and Thomas Vanek also scored for the rebuilding Wings, who are 0-4-2 for their worst start in franchise history. Jimmy Howard gave up five goals on 20 shots before being replaced by Jonathan Bernier in the second period. Bernier finished with 13 saves. The Red Wings, who were coming off an 8-2 loss to Boston, have now allowed an NHL-worst 29 goals over six games.

PREDATORS 4, WILD 2 NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Ryan Johansen and P.K. Subban each had two assists, and Nashville won for the fifth time in six games.

Ben Bishop made 21 saves while CANADIENS 7, losing in regulation against RED WINGS 3 Ottawa for the first time (9MONTREAL — Jonathan 1-4) in his career.

Furlong scores 1st college TD Staff report Peninsula Clarion

On the same Saturday that the Soldotna football program was winning its seventhstraight state title, one of the most legendary players to come out of the program was making his mark at the college level. Brenner Furlong, a 2018 graduate of SoHi, blocked a punt and recovered the ball for his first college touchdown for Dakota State University in

Madison, South Dakota. Furlong’s big play came with 3:53 left in the second quarter and gave Dakota State a 17-14 lead over Presentation (South Dakota). The Trojans would not lose the lead the rest of the game and ended a six-game losing streak. Furlong, 6-foot-0 and 185 pounds, also plays running back for Dakota State and carried the ball three times for 4 yards in that game. Furlong won the Alaska Gatorade Player of the Year award as a junior at SoHi.

NLC All-Conference correction The Northern Lights Conference all-conference information for utility player printed in Sunday’s Peninsula Clarion sports section was incorrect. Zack Hanson of Soldotna is

the first-teamer, Kaden McKibben of Kenai Central is the second-teamer and Kobe Sherman of Eagle River earned honoroable mention. The Clarion regrets the error.

Brewers shut out Dodgers LOS ANGELES (AP) — A veteran starter, an intimidating bullpen and a twice-demoted shortstop who is suddenly flashing power helped the Milwaukee Brewers take a 2-1 lead in the NL Championship Series. Jhoulys Chacin combined with four relievers on a fivehitter and Orlando Arcia hit a two-run homer in a 4-0 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Monday. Los Angeles loaded the bases against Jeremy Jeffress in the ninth inning, but the struggling closer shut the door. He struck out Yasmani Grandal and pinch-hitter Brian Dozier to complete Milwaukee’s third shutout in six playoff games this year. “Our guys that we’re giving the ball to at the start of the game, they’re doing a heck of a job, man. And they’re setting the tone, really,” Milwaukee manager Craig Counsell said. Game 4 in the best-of-sev-

Ryan Braun had an early RBI double off rookie Walker Buehler, who struck out eight in seven innings. Travis Shaw tripled and scored on a wild pitch in the sixth. Arcia connected for his third postseason homer in the seventh. Chacin scattered three hits over 5 1/3 innings before giving way to Corey Knebel, who worked 1 2/3 perfect innings and struck out his last four batters. With a runner on second and the Brewers nursing a 2-0 lead, Knebel got Manny Machado to ground out before whiffing Cody Bellinger to end the sixth. The right-hander then fanned Yasiel Puig, Grandal and Enrique Hernandez in the seventh. Joakim Soria retired Chris Taylor on a foul popup for the first out of the eighth. Josh Had-

er, who didn’t pitch in Game 2 after tossing three scoreless innings in the opener, needed only eight pitches to strike out pinch-hitters David Freese and Matt Kemp to end the eighth. Hader rarely pitches on consecutive days, but his light workload Monday could give Counsell some options. “We’re playing to win the series, not just games. Obviously with Josh doing not as much tonight, there’s lots of possibilities there going forward,” Counsell said. Justin Turner singled and Machado doubled to start the ninth for Los Angeles. Bellinger popped out and slammed his bat before Puig drew a walk, but Counsell stayed with Jeffress, who settled down and came through. Milwaukee’s vaunted bullpen delivered after the Dodgers hit .333 and scored eight of their nine runs against Brewers relievers during the first two games in Milwaukee, both de-

cided by one run. The Dodgers also came up empty against Chacin with the bases loaded in the second, when Buehler took a called third strike to end the inning. “We had the right guys in those moments and we just didn’t execute,” manager Dave Roberts said. “We were 0 for 10 with runners in scoring position.” The Brewers became the first visiting team to pitch a postseason shutout at Dodger Stadium since the Philadelphia Phillies in Game 1 of the 1983 NLCS. Los Angeles had gone 50 consecutive home playoff games without being blanked, the second-longest streak in major league history behind 61 straight for the Boston Red Sox, according to STATS. The 1905 New York Giants and 1966 Orioles are the only other teams to toss three shutouts in their first six games of a postseason, STATS said.

Packers top 49ers on late field goal By GENARO C. ARMAS AP Sports Writer

GREEN BAY, Wis. — A pick, a beneficial penalty and a game-winning kick. Quite a final minute for the Green Bay Packers. Mason Crosby kicked a 27yard field goal as time expired to cap an 81-yard drive set up by Kevin King’s interception with 1:07 left, and the Packers outlasted the San Francisco 49ers for a 33-30 win on Monday night. The final drive was extended after 49ers cornerback Richard Sherman was flagged for illegal contact on third-and-15 that wiped out a sack of Aaron Rodgers with 43 seconds left. Rodgers rushed up the middle for a 21-yard gain on the next play. The two-time NFL

MVP completed two more passes for 19 yards to set up Crosby’s game-winner for Green Bay (3-2-1). The veteran kicker was perfect a week after missing four field goals in a loss at Detroit. “It’s very appropriate, what he went through last week, (for) the team to stick with him,” Rodgers said. “And then he responded.” Rodgers threw for 425 yards and two scores, both to Adams. The second came with 1:55 left from 16 yards to tie the score at 30. C.J. Beathard passed for 245 yards and two long touchdowns to speedy receiver Marquise Goodwin for the 49ers (1-5). For a while it looked like the 49ers might hold on for their first victory since quarterback Jimmy

Garoppolo was lost for the year in Week 3 with a torn ACL. Turnovers hurt them again — three more on Monday night, but none bigger than King’s pick at the Packers 10. “Very disappointed. We had a chance to win that game,” coach Kyle Shanahan said. “It hurts.” Then Rodgers went to work, aided by the penalty on Sherman, who was covering Davante Adams. Rodgers was 25 of 46. Adams had 10 catches for 132 yards, one of three Packers receivers to go over 100 yards. The Packers scored 10 points in the final 2 minutes, capped by Crosby’s fourth field goal of the night. “This week was a grind, it was one of the tougher weeks

of my career,” Crosby said about bouncing back from his awful game last week. It’s just what the Packers needed going into their bye week. The late flurry overshadowed another troubling start by the defense. The Packers had 17-7 lead when Rodgers connected with Davante Adams for a 9-yard touchdown with 1:58 left in the first quarter. Then San Francisco just brushed past Green Bay. Beathard connected with Goodwin for the 67-yard score down the middle of the field on the ensuing series. The 30-yard score came with 6:05 left in the second. Goodwin celebrated by mimicking a long jump in the end zone.

She refuses to exercise and flits from doctor to doctor trying different pills and homeopathic remedies. I’m in the military. I work full time and go to college full time. I take care of the cooking and cleaning around the house. She has gained a tremendous amount of weight, and I am no longer physically attracted to her.

Hints from Heloise

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Tuesday, Oct. 16, 2018: This year you open up to different ideas, slowly and with grace. Others who interact with you on a regular basis could find their ideas transforming as a result. Basic changes could occur around your home. Some of you might move; others may remodel or buy a new home. If you are single, you meet people with ease. However, settling into a relationship might not occur until the second half of 2019. If you are attached, the two of you often can be found together at home. You enjoy each other’s company. CAPRICORN is a realistic adviser. The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHH Your interactions with a higher-up remind you of the power and control others like to wield. You understand your inner power, and you refuse to become engaged in others’ issues. Go off, network and work on an important relationship. Tonight: Relating individually would be best. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH Information you receive forces you to reassess certain decisions. Though at first you might be upset, as you process, you’ll see the strength of this new position. An associate encourages you to move forward and not worry about what is next. Tonight: Catch up on a friend’s news. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH Your strength emerges when relating on a one-on-one level. You might agree with another person, and vice versa. You can bridge

a problem by accepting that not everyone thinks as you do. Do not sign off on any joint ventures right now. Tonight: A talk could be intense. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Others might not realize how challenging they really are. In fact, you cannot seem to make a decision without them. Your sense of humor kicks in, which helps lighten up the moment. Trust your creativity and ingenuity to come forward for you. Tonight: Let the fun begin. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH As charming as you are, some people will not respond as you might like. Someone who is into control games is unlikely to acquiesce to your graceful or engaging ways. Maintain a positive outlook and breeze past difficult, power-happy people. Tonight: A surprise greets you. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH One-on-one relating will be positive if you can escape the shackles of a control game. The only way to win is to become oblivious to the other party’s games. Your perception is likely to open up a conversation. You can only benefit from such a situation. Tonight: Let your hair down. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Your ability to tell it like it is emerges. You can say nearly anything to someone because of your verbal skills. People sometimes have strong reactions after they internalize the meaning of your words. You might want to prepare for this. Tonight: Happily nested at home. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH You might have difficulty identifying with others. You will see that there is an appropriate re-

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Your ability to bypass difficult people emerges. You might not like what you see. Not playing into others’ issues often forces them to look at themselves. This response might not occur immediately, but it will in time. Maintain a sense of humor. Tonight: Out and about. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Listen to what someone else is sharing and the possibilities that surround a certain decision. You might have more options in front of you than you realize. Investigate news with an eye to whether it is factual. Ask questions, if need be. Tonight: Go for more of what you want. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH Your unique approach and perception could make all the difference in how a difficult situation resolves itself. Right now your views might not be appreciated. Open up to new ideas and weigh the pros and cons -- at least to yourself. Tonight: Get a good night’s sleep. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH A meeting points you in the right direction and toward the right choices. Your ability to move forward without being distracted might be a challenge. Your mind tends to float from one topic to another. A friend means well, but might push you too hard. Tonight: Where the crowds are.

CHEAPER WIPER Dear Heloise: After many years of buying makeup-remover wipes, which are expensive, I found that baby wipes for sensitive skin work great, leave my face soft and cost a fraction of the price, with more product. I love your column in The Villages Daily Sun. -- Beverly H., The Villages, Fla. WAIT IT OUT Dear Heloise: Regarding the recent hint about pumping gas: I have seen many people open the vehicle door and get back inside while they are waiting for the pump to finish. People should never wait inside the vehicle. -- Rhona B., Silver Spring, Md. Rhona, how right you are. Static electricity can build up if someone is in contact with car upholstery, and gas fumes can then ignite the vehicle. It is highly unlikely that this would happen, but it is not worth the risk. Stand by the pump while gas is dispensing. -- Heloise EASY SQUEEZE Hello, Heloise: Many liquids come in bottles sealed with a foil/plastic disc that can be difficult to remove -- but there’s no need to! Especially for situations in which a controlled dispensing of the liquid is desired, I use a knife to carefully poke a small hole in the seal. This allows dispensing a small amount onto a cotton ball for home uses -for example, witch hazel, rubbing alcohol, hydrogen peroxide and nail-polish remover -- or a controlled pour from a large container into a narrow opening, such as the reservoirs for wiper fluid, antifreeze and motor oil under the hood of the car. -- Miz R.D. in Houston WRAP IT UP -- I’LL TAKE IT Dear Heloise: I save my mylar balloons to use as wrapping paper. They make great wrapping paper for small gifts like DVDs, phones, electronics, small books, scarves, etc. -- Margaret H., Fredericksburg, Va.

DEAR ABBY: I have been dating my boyfriend just over a year. We live and work together, which I enjoy. He, on the other hand, expressed from day one that all he asks for out of our relationship is “space.” I’m fine with that, but now it seems he needs more and more space. (An example: Spending nights at friends’ because they go out drinking on the weekends.) I have told him I think it’s selfish because weekends are the only free time both of us have together. And lately, it has become a few weekends out of the month. My friends and family think it’s bordering on inappropriate because when you’re in a relationship, you want to spend time with the person you love. I’m at a crossroads. Part of me understands where he’s coming from; another part of me thinks it’s a cop-out. I’m wondering if I should put up with it for now until we find separate jobs (if that will even solve the problem) or if I should kick him to the curb. Advice? -- MATTER OF SPACE IN FLORIDA DEAR MATTER OF SPACE: A man whose idea of a good time is going out drinking with his buddies to the point that he can’t make it home isn’t ready for an exclusive relationship.

Pets Veterinarians guard against opioid misuse By BRIAN MACQUARRIE The Boston Globe

BOSTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Dr. Virginia Sinnott has practiced veterinary medicine for 15 years, but guarding against opioid abuse by pet owners had rarely been part of her job. Until recently. In a sign of the desperation behind the drug epidemic, Sinnott and many other veterinarians believe that more pet owners are using their cats and dogs as a ploy to obtain opioids for themselves. The warning signs are often clear and ominous. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People become angry or enraged or belligerent far out of proportion to the level of pain

their dog or cat is experiencing,â&#x20AC;? said Sinnott, senior staff veterinarian in the emergency and critical care department at Angell Animal Medical Center in Boston. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re screaming and yelling and using swear wordsâ&#x20AC;? to demand painkillers that their pets do not need. The problem extends far beyond Angellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s busy hospitals in Jamaica Plain and Waltham. Last month, the Food and Drug Administration issued a warning to veterinarians about administering opioids, urging them to use pain-relief alternatives when possible and be vigilant for signs of misuse. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These drugs have potentially

serious risks, not just for the animal patients, but also because of their potential to lead to addiction, abuse, and overdose in humans who may divert them for their own use,â&#x20AC;? FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb wrote. Sinnott said she believes Angell stymies nearly all attempts to divert opioids from the hospital, but the experience has left her startled and saddened that the cri-

sis has penetrated one of the largest veterinary hospitals in North America. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the part that breaks your heart,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As much as this person is screaming at you, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re suffering themselves.â&#x20AC;? Angell and its 24/7 emergency service might be more vulnerable to attempts to divert opioids than private practices, where veterinarians build close relationships

with clients and their animals. But a 2016 study in Colorado, published in August by the American Journal of Public Health, showed broad concern. The study found that 44 percent of the veterinarians surveyed were aware of opioid misuse by a client or veterinary staff member. In a striking finding, 13 percent were aware that an animal owner had intentionally injured an ani-

mal or made it sick â&#x20AC;&#x201D; or made the pet seem hurt or ill â&#x20AC;&#x201D; in an effort to obtain opioids. Angell veterinarians said that they have not seen cases where animals have been intentionally injured but that three or four times a week they encounter pet owners who raise red flags for them, including knowing a suspiciously large amount of technical detail about opioids.

Meet Hoss Hoss is a young neutered male, probably only 1 or 2 years. He is from the Shelter so his past is mostly unknown, but we do know he is very friendly towards people. He will need a safe outdoor area to explore when the weather is nice. He might get along with other cats or dogs after a proper introduction period.
