In the news ConocoPhillips heralds first oil at Alaska petroleum reserve ANCHORAGE (AP) — ConocoPhillips Alaska has reached a milestone at the first drill site on federal leases within the National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska. The company announced Tuesday that it has produced its oil at the Greater Mooses Tooth No. 1 drill site. Production began Friday. The site is a satellite of the Alpine Field. Oil will be processed through existing facilities at Alpine. Construction at the site began in 2017 and at its peak over two winters created 700 jobs, according to ConocoPhillips Alaska. The site has a nearly 12acre drilling pad. Production plans call for nine initial wells with capacity for 33 wells. Peak gross production is estimated at 25,000 to 30,000 barrels of oil per day. The company estimates construction and drilling expenses at about $725 million.
Boaters find dead bear cubs tied to weight in Alaska waters ANCHORAGE (AP) — Two men boating in Prince William Sound in southern Alaska found a pair of dead bear cubs tied to a concrete weight. Peter Montesano and Paul Wunnicke saw something strange floating in Squaw Bay while on their boating trip Saturday, the Anchorage Daily News reported Sunday. Montesano, an Anchorage physician, moved his Sea Dory boat closer to the floating mass, seeing something furry. “And then we said, wait a second — those are two pairs of hind legs,” Montesano said. The men found two dead black bear cubs each tied by the neck to a weight made out of a milk jug filled with concrete. One of the bears had a bullet hole in a leg, they said. The carcasses seemed somewhat fresh. They hadn’t been heavily picked at by birds or scavengers. “They didn’t look bloated; they weren’t all ballooned up,” Montesano said. The site seemed to be evidence of an intentional effort to dispose of the carcasses, Montesano said. Bear cubs are illegal to kill in Alaska in most circumstances. They took several photos of the scene, but didn’t bring See CUBS, page A13

Borough loses invocation lawsuit Superior Court rules policy violates the Alaska Constitution By MEGAN PACER Homer News
The Alaska Superior Court has ruled against the Kenai Peninsula Borough in a fight over its controversial invocation policy, finding that the policy violates the Alaska Constitution. In Hunt et al. v. Kenai Peninsula Borough, the Superior Court has ruled that the borough’s invocation policy violates the establishment clause, which refers to the mandate in the Constitution banning the government from establishing an official religion or favoring one religion or belief over another. The borough had claimed that a resolution passed by the borough assembly — which allows a chaplain serving the military, law enforcement agencies, fire departments, hospitals or other similar organizations to give invocations before Kenai Peninsula Borough Assembly meetings, as well as people Members of the Kenai Peninsula Borough Assembly hold a religious invocation during Tuesday night’s assembly meeting in Soldotna. The invocation was held after the Alaska Superior Court ruled the ritual violated the Alaska Constitution. (Photo by See COURT, page A13 Victoria Petersen/Peninsula Clarion)
Election Language takes center stage at Indigenous Peoples Day celebration results certified
By ALEX MCCARTHY Juneau Empire
Even as the son of a Tlingit icon, Walter Soboleff Jr. felt invisible at times as a teenager. As he performed in the dance group Yees Ku Oo at Monday’s Indigenous Peoples Day Celebration, Soboleff Jr. was far from invisible, as he announced the group’s entrance by loudly declaring, “Cast your eyes this way” in both Tlingit and English. Having this day officially recognized by the state for the past two years, he and others said Monday, has shined a light on Alaska Native cultures and languages. “Just by having an event like this, it’s heartwarming,” Soboleff Jr. said. “Just to say, ‘Hey, these people are here too.’” Prior to Monday’s celebration at Elizabeth Peratrovich Hall in Juneau, Soboleff said that he still doesn’t know as much of the Tlingit language as he would like to. He’s not alone, as the numbers of fluent Alaska Native speakers are The Yees Ku Oo Dancers perform on stage during Indigenous Peoples Day celebrations at dwindling. See DAY, page A13

Official election results from the Kenai Peninsula Borough’s municipal election were certified at Tuesday’s Borough Assembly meeting. There were no new upsets or victories on the central peninsula. With the influx of absentee ballots, however, some numbers changed. For Proposition 1, on the K-Selo bonds, slightly more votes came in for support of the bonds, but not enough to swing the vote. As it stands, 58 percent of voters did not support the proposition, which would have authorized $5.4 million in borough funds to help build a school in the village of Kachemak Selo. Kenai City Council results were close, but the 125 absentee ballots from Kenai didn’t change the final outcome. The council’s two elected members are Robert Peterkin II and Bob Molloy. Greg Madden officially holds nearly 50 percent of the vote in the four-way District 5 school board race.

The Nikiski Pool is closed until further notice due to a failing septic system. It could be awhile before programs and open swim are up and running again. Rachel Parra, recreation director for the North Peninsula Recreation Service Area, said she is working to get the pool back open as soon as possible. Right now, the Nikiski Pool is only open for showers, use of the fitness room and courts.

ANCHORAGE — A deadly helicopter crash in southeast Alaska was caused by the pilot’s choice to fly in poor weather and “self-induced pressure to complete the flight,” according to a federal investigative report. The National Transportation Safety Board has released its final report on the June 2016 crash near Skagway that killed 66-year-old Christopher Maggio, a longtime pilot for Temsco Helicopter Inc. Maggio had left a dogsledding camp on Denver Gla-
cier before he crashed into a mountainside about 2 miles northeast of the camp. The crash happened on the sixth of seven planned flights. Windy, foggy and snowy conditions canceled flights that morning, but weathered cleared enough that evening for Maggio to determined it was safe to fly, according to the report. The pilot experienced “a little bit” of icing on the third flight after two rounds of dropping off mushers and dogs at the Alaska Icefield Expeditions camp.

Major Hurricane Michael bearing down on Florida Panhandle By BRENDAN FARRINGTON and TAMARA LUSH Associated Press
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — A fast and furious Hurricane Michael sped toward the Florida Panhandle on Tuesday night with 120 mph winds and a potential storm surge of 13 feet, giving tens of thousands of people precious little time to get out or board up. Drawing energy from the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico, the storm strengthened rapidly into a potentially devastating Category 3 and was getting much better organized after nightfall. Forecasters said Michael could be near a very dangerous Category 4 by landfall, with further strengthening expected overnibght. It was expected to blow ashore around midday Wednesday near Panama City Beach, along a lightly populated stretch of fishing villages and whitesand spring-break beaches. While Florence took five days between the time it turned into a hurricane and the moment it rolled into the Carolinas, Michael gave Florida what amounted to two days’ notice. It developed into a hurricane on Monday, and by Tuesday, more than 180,000 people were under mandatory evacuation orders. “We don’t know if it’s going to wipe out our house or not,” Jason McDonald, of Panama City, said as he and his wife drove north into Alabama with their two children, ages 5 and 7. “We want to get them out of the way.” Coastal residents rushed to board up their homes and stock up on bottled water and other supplies. As of 8 p.m. EDT, Michael was 255 miles (410 kilometers) south of Panama City, speeding northward at 12 mph (19 kph). Hurricane-force winds extended outward 45 miles (75 kilometers) from its center.

Florida Gov. Rick Scott warned it was a “monstrous hurricane,” and his Democratic opponent for the Senate, Sen. Bill Nelson, said a “wall of water” could cause destruction along the Panhandle. “Don’t think that you can ride this out if you’re in a low-lying area,” Nelson said on CNN. But some officials were worried by what they weren’t seeing — a rush of evacuees. “I am not seeing the level of traffic on the roadways that I would expect when we’ve called for the evacuation of 75 percent of this county,” Bay County Sheriff Tommy Ford said. Aja Kemp, 36, planned to stay in her mobile home in Crawfordville. She worked all night stocking shelves at a big-box store that was closing later Tuesday, then got to work securing her yard.
Kemp said the bill totaled over $800 when she and her family fled Hurricane Irma’s uncertain path last year. “I just can’t bring myself to spend that much money,” she said. “We’ve got supplies to last us a week. Plenty of water. I made sure we’ve got clean clothes. We got everything tied down.” In the dangerously exposed coastal town of Apalachicola, population 2,500, Sally Crown planned to go home and hunker down with her two dogs. “We’ve been through this before,” she said. “This might be really bad and serious. But in my experience, it’s always blown way out of proportion.” Mandatory evacuation orders went into effect in Panama City Beach and other low-lying areas in the storm’s path. That included Pensacola Beach but not in Pensacola itself, a city of about 54,000.
Forecasters said parts of the Panhandle and Florida’s marshy, lightly populated Big Bend area — the crook of Florida’s elbow — could see 9 to 13 feet (2.7 to 4 meters) of storm surge. About 20 miles (32 kilometers) in from the coast, in Tallahassee, the state capital, people rushed to fill their gas tanks and grab supplies. Many gas stations in Tallahassee had run out of fuel, including the Quick ‘N’ Save, which was also stripped clean of bottled water and down to about two dozen bags of ice. Tallahassee Mayor Andrew Gillum, Florida’s Democratic nominee for governor, helped people fill sandbags. Several people were taken by van from coastal Wakulla County to Tallahassee’s Leon County to the north. Wakulla County’s shelters are not considered reliable against storms stronger than a Category 2.

What Others Say
Where lawmakers failed on net neutrality, California steps in Trying to protect an open internet
state by state, rather than by federal law, is a daunting and unwieldy goal. Unfortunately, it’s also entirely necessary, given that the Trump administration and Congress are more than happy to let internet providers restrict what we — the American people — can see and access online. Just on Sunday, the U.S, Justice Department sued to stop California from requiring “net neutrality,” the concept of protecting full and equal access to the internet. It’s a sad day — and a threat to our democracy — when the federal government goes to bat for those who would squelch the free flow of information. Why is this a big worry? President Donald Trump and his administration have been all about attacking independent news sources and trying to reshape the media into a lapdog that supports all the president’s policies. As much as the internet has been abused by bogus web and social media sites, an independent internet is an important part of maintaining an informed citizenry. Getting rid of net neutrality also means you might pay more for such things as streaming movies from particular sites. You might also suddenly find you can’t go into competition with an established webbased company with your own web-based start-up because you don’t have the deep pockets to pay for fast internet speeds. Last year, the Federal Communications Commission pulled back Obama-era rules to protect internet access. Several states, including Washington, Oregon and Vermont, have enacted some protections in response. But a bill California Gov. Jerry Brown signed on Sunday gives that state the nation’s toughest laws protecting internet freedom. Average Americans have come to assume that the internet is a level playing field where they can go wherever they want. But the big internet service providers see an opportunity to make huge profits by speeding up connection speeds for companies willing to pay a premium while slowing down speeds for those who don’t pay. That would put corporate entities in the position of deciding who gets information at what speed. Many valued voices on the internet could be throttled out of existence. ... Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan and 22 other state attorneys general earlier this year filed a lawsuit in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit to overturn to FCC decision. Arguments in the lawsuit have been scheduled for February. At the time of the filing, Madigan said the repeal of net neutrality would allow internet service providers to block or slow access to some content and charge consumers to access certain sites. Telecommunication companies say they dread the thought of having to contend with a patchwork of internet access laws from state to state. No doubt. But the solution is not the wholesale dispensing with net neutrality. Rather, the companies should be leading the charge for a free and open internet. Net neutrality is one of many issues in which states suddenly find themselves having to take an activist stance on national policies so as to protect their residents. States also are stepping up on immigration, LGBTQ and environmental issues. They have been forced to do so by an administration and Congress that are failing to meet the needs and heed the wishes of average Americans. — Chicago Sun-Times, Oct. 1

The country’s road ruts
”Country roads, take me home, To the place I belong, West Virginia, mountain mama, Take me home, country roads.” If John Denver were to write that song these days, its lyrics might become “Trump country roads.” After all, Donald Trump won West Virginia by a margin of more than 42 percentage points over Hillary Clinton. And West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin’s “mountain mama” didn’t raise no fool. Sen. Manchin is fighting for his political life, doing whatever he can to make sure the state’s voters don’t take him home from Washington, D.C., and replace him with a member of Trump’s party. It’s one of those tacky little games they play in Congress and, for that matter, in legislative bodies everywhere. When facing a really tough issue, particularly during a campaign, a member will tell his party leaders: “I’ll be with you if you absolutely need me, but if you don’t, then I’ll avoid making the unpopular decision and go with the politically expedient one. No sense endangering my re-election chances for nothing.” Manchin waited to commit until after it was clear Brett Kavanaugh would have the senator majority votes necessary to be confirmed. Therefore he didn’t have to make that dangerous choice between antagonizing his party or antagonizing a huge chunk of West Virginia’s fanatic pro-Trump majority. By the way, recent polling shows Joe Manchin leading his GOP opponent by about 9 points, and he probably didn’t harm himself by supporting Kavanaugh.
Heidi Heitkamp is another story. She’s a Senate Democrat running to save her skin in North Dakota, which Trump won by whomping Hillary Clinton by a more than 32 percentage point margin. Unlike Bob Franken Manchin, Heitkamp is badly trailing in her race, by about 12 percentage points. Also, unlike Manchin, Heitkamp decided to vote her conscience, and she declared ahead of time that she would oppose Kavanaugh. That could doom her chances, but she did it. Hers also was a wasted effort, because Republican leader Mitch McConnell was able to make Judge Brett Kavanaugh into Justice Kavanaugh, finally pulling off the ultraconservative takeover of the Supreme Court that should last for decades. The hard-right-wing Supremes outnumber the hard-left 5-4, although on the right there is a bloc within a bloc — two justices, Clarence Thomas and now Brett Kavanaugh, who have been charged with sexual improprieties. Already there is hand-wringing about the credibility of the nation’s highest rung in our judicial system, where legal disputes can go to be ultimately decided. The damage will become apparent over time. But here in D.C., we avoid such farsighted thinking and focus on immediate results.
We are preoccupied with what effects the bizzaro developments might have in the short run, specifically the midterm elections less than a month from now. Never mind that the ludicrous conduct of almost everyone involved has further eroded the already crumbling credibility of our institutions. It’s all about who can take advantage of the fallout. Pick your poison. There are plausible scenarios on both sides: Either the Brett Kavanaugh snit storm benefited the GOP Trumpsters by inflaming their passions over their perceived unfairness of uncorroborated accusations against him. That would include many men who are feeling mighty exposed these days. It’s a feeling of vulnerability that was deftly exploited by Trump and his gang. Or, it will push the buttons of the antis, particularly women who have embraced the grievances accumulated over eons of sexual oppression. This really becomes a question of turnout. Who will show up on Election Day? Will those who were loudly demonstrating during the Kavanaugh debacle appear at the polls next month? Will they be outnumbered? Will all of this really make a difference, or will we and they be distracted by some other government fiasco or outrage? Let’s face it, the Democrats as an organized party are easily befuddled. Donald Trump is a master befuddler. What’s yet to be seen is if he can be stopped before he takes the country further down the road to disaster.

other revenue sources, it is only a matter of time before the Permanent Fund itself will be in jeopardy. A modest income tax, based on one’s federal return, would be a cost-effective way to generate additional revenues. Children and retired folks with limited income would not be greatly affected. In addition, a significant amount of wage money leaves the state in the pockets of relatively highly paid non-residents in the petroleum and other industries. These wages go untaxed in Alaska, leaving behind underfunded local infrastructure used by all of us. None of us like taxes, yet all of us should realize the local and state services that we need must be paid for. Paul Seaton’s proposal on the income tax is the right position for fiscal responsibility, which in the end is the job of the legislature and benefits all Alaskans.
Micciche right on crime
Seaton makes sense on taxes Nobody likes paying taxes. Alaskans have been blessed with oil wealth that has allowed us to repeal the income tax we had 40 years ago. (Yes we used to have one). And every resident has benefitted from our low tax policy. The Permanent Fund Dividend has been a meaningful stimulant to local economies all across the state, and especially meaningful to lower income families and children. The Republican Party has taken a page from the populist playbook and accused Paul Seaton of trying to “steal” everyone’s Permanent Fund Dividend. Nothing could be further from the truth. Paul Seaton recognizes that in order to have government function you need sufficient revenues (with the exception of the Feds). The legislature has done what is politically possible to cut the budget. Without
AP News Brief Taylor Swift makes politics personal with endorsement NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Taylor Swift’s first big jump into politics might have gained her some extra haters, but her endorsement in a competitive midterm U.S. Senate race isn’t likely to result in a massive backlash against the countrysinger-turned-pop-star, observers say. Republicans now have some bad blood with the star after a surprise endorsement on Instagram Sunday night for Tennessee Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Phil Bredesen and an argument against Republican candidate Marsha Blackburn.
— Philemon D. Morris, former mayor of Kachemak City Republicans and President Donald Trump have already rebuked her for the endorsement, but the Swifties closed ranks in support of her and many others have applauded her for speaking out. “She weighs every word carefully, but she has to because few artists receive more scrutiny than she does,” said Beverly Keel, chair of the department of recording industry at Middle Tennessee State University. “People will analyze every single word.” Accompanied by a Polaroid-looking selfie, Swift acknowledged being reluctant to publicly voice her opinions in the past. But she says things are different in recent years, a possible reference to when she went to court last year to testify against a radio DJ who she says groped her.
As a person who is deeply active in my community and concerned about crime, I know where Peter Micciche stands. As the head of Crime Stoppers for many years, I have gotten tremendous support from our senator. What I don’t know is where his opponent stands or what his ideas are to reduce crime. He is yet to sit down with Peter Micciche in a debate and let us hear his ideas. Peter Micciche’s opponent wants our vote, but how does he propose to reduce crime? It may be that he doesn’t have any ideas. I know Peter is an effective lawmaker and has a plan to repeal SB 91 and craft strong crime legislation. I know his history of being actively involved in our community. And I know who is getting my vote on Nov. 6. — Ed Beddow, Soldotna
Blackburn’s voting record, Swift wrote, “appalls and terrifies me,” noting Blackburn’s votes against equal pay for women and the Reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act. Trump, who has campaigned for Blackburn, dismissed Swift’s opinion of the candidate, saying Swift “doesn’t know anything about her. And let’s say that I like Taylor’s music about 25 percent less now, OK?” She’s not the first artist to endorse Bredesen, a former Tennessee governor who has been helped in his current campaign by four-time Grammy-winner Jason Isbell and rocker Ben Folds. Country artists have weighed in on other state races, including country duo Brothers Osborne playing at a campaign event for Karl Dean, a Democratic candidate for governor.
UN’s Nikki Haley to leave in latest Trump shake-up
Peninsula Clarion | Wednesday, October 10, 2018 | A5
By ZEKE MILLER, DEB RIECHMANN and JONATHAN LEMIRE Associated Press
WASHINGTON — In the latest shake-up for President Donald Trump’s turbulent administration, U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley abruptly announced Tuesday she is resigning at the end of the year, raising fresh questions about the Trump team and about the outspoken diplomat’s own political ambitions. The news blindsided some key U.S. allies and many congressional Republicans involved in foreign policy matters. And it came less than a month before congressional elections, thwarting White House efforts to project an image of stability, with the loss of one of the highest-profile women in the administration at a time when women’s votes are being vigorously pursued. But Haley, the former South Carolina governor, has often been an unpredictable and independent force in the Trump administration. At times she has offered strikingly different perspectives on world events from her more isolationistminded boss. A smiling Haley announced her decision at an Oval Office meeting alongside the president, bringing up her own political prospects

even as she underscored her continued support for Trump. Without prompting from reporters, she said she had no plans to run for president “in 2020” and would campaign for Trump. Haley, who is 46 and not personally wealthy, hinted in her resignation letter to Trump that she is headed to the private sector. “I have given everything
I’ve got these last eight years,” she said, referring to her six years as governor as well as her time at the U.N. “And I do think it’s good to rotate in other people who can put that same energy and power into it.” Trump was asked why the announcement was made now since Haley is staying until the end of the year. Instead of answering di-
rectly, he recounted how she has had to work on tough issues, such as Iran and North Korea. White House officials had sought to put a hold on Trump’s record-setting turnover in the run-up to the Nov. 6 elections, with aides being asked months ago to step down or commit to stay through Election Day to avoid adding to a sense of turmoil.
States agree on plan to manage overtaxed Colorado River By DAN ELLIOTT Associated Press
DENVER — Seven U.S. states in the Southwest that depend on the overtaxed Colorado River have reached tentative agreements on how to manage the waterway amid an unprecedented drought, officials said Tuesday. The announcement was a long-awaited step toward preserving the river, which supports 40 million people and 6,300 square miles (16,300 square kilometers) of farmland in the U.S. and Mexico. “We have, after many years of discussion and negotiation, a real milestone,” said James Eklund, a water lawyer who represents Colorado in the interstate negotiations on the river. A nearly two-decade-long drought has drained the river’s two largest reservoirs, Lake
Mead and Lake Powell, to alarmingly low levels. The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, which manages major reservoirs across the West, says the chances of a shortfall in Lake Mead are 57 percent by 2020. The reservoir has never fallen low enough to trigger a shortage before. If it happens, mandatory cutbacks would hit Arizona, Nevada and Mexico first. The drought contingency plans announced Tuesday are not designed to prevent a shortage in the river system, but to manage and minimize the effects. The two major components of the plans cover the Upper Basin, where most of the water originates as Rocky Mountain snowfall, and the Lower Basin, which consumes more of the water because it has more people and more farms.
Colorado, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming are in the Upper Basin. Arizona, California and Nevada are in the Lower Basin. The Lower Basin plan is detailed and specific, but the Upper Basin plan outlines what steps the states would take if
things get worse, said Karen Kwon, Colorado’s assistant attorney general. It will likely be next year before all seven states and the U.S. government approve the plans, Kwon said. Mexico agreed last year to participate in drought planning.
Officials: Power lines ignited fatal California fire SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Two sagging Pacific Gas & Electric power lines made contact, sparked and ignited a Northern California wildfire last year that killed four people and injured a firefighter, officials said Tuesday. The finding adds to the growing financial liability of PG&E over wildfires in the state. Its equipment has been blamed for starting 13 wildfires last year and the utility has told shareholders it expects to pay more than $2.5 billion in damages. The California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection said Tuesday that strong winds in Yuba County, near Sacramento, caused the lines to touch, creating an electrical arc that sent molten material onto dry vegetation last October. The wildfire swept through Northern California during the state’s deadliest and costliest
wildfire season, when blazes killed 44 people and destroyed more than 5,000 homes. The fire scorched 15 square miles (39 square kilometers) and destroyed 264 structures. Cal Fire investigators found no negligence on the part of PG&E. Nonetheless, California law compels utilities to pay for damages from wildfires if their equipment caused the blazes — even if the utilities weren’t negligent. PG&E spent millions of dollars in an 11th hour lobbying effort at the end of the California legislative session in a failed attempt to change the law to reduce its financial liability. State officials say insured damages alone topped $9 billion and PG&E could be liable for much of it. Insurance companies have filed dozens of lawsuits calling for PG&E to reimburse them for settling claims from policyholders.

Around the Nation Gecko butt-dials ‘bazillion’ times from Hawaii seal hospital HONOLULU (AP) — If you got incessant phone calls last week from a hospital that cares for Hawaiian monk seals, you were butt-dialed. Or, more specifically, foot-dialed. By a gecko. Marine mammal veterinarian Claire Simeone was at lunch when she got a call from Ke Kai Ola, the Big Island hospital where she’s director. There was silence on the other end. Nine more silent calls followed. Fearing a seal emergency, she rushed back. She wasn’t the only one getting calls, and people started asking why the hospital was calling non-stop. Trying figure out why a “bazillion” calls were made from one line, she called the phone company and a rep tried to talk her through finding a possible line on the fritz. She walked into a lab and found the culprit. The gecko was perched on a phone, making calls to everyone in the recent call history with “HIS TINY GECKO FEET,” she wrote in a Twitter thread the next day, detailing the saga. Social media delighted in the tale and some people offered jokes about a certain company’s gecko calling to save you money on your car insurance. After discovering the mystery caller, Simeone caught the gecko and put it outside on a plant, she said Tuesday.
Wisconsin man gets 22 years for trying to induce miscarriage APPLETON, Wis. — A Wisconsin man has been sentenced to 22 years in prison after being convicted of spiking his pregnant girlfriend’s drink with an abortion-inducing drug. Forty-five-year-old Manishkumar Patel was convicted in August of attempted first-degree intentional homicide of an unborn child. His girlfriend never drank the spiked beverage, but miscarried weeks later. Patel was sentenced Tuesday in Outagamie County. The former Kaukauna man had been on the run since he was charged in 2007 and forfeited a $750,000 bond. He was arrested in January 2017 in New York. Patel said in court he didn’t want another child because he was afraid the child would have the same medical problems as his son. But he said he realized that even if the child had medical issues, the child still would have had a life. — Associated Press
Today in History Today is Wednesday, Oct. 10, the 283rd day of 2018. There are 82 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Oct. 10, 1973, Vice President Spiro T. Agnew, accused of accepting bribes, pleaded no contest to one count of federal income tax evasion, and resigned his office. On this date: In 1845, the U.S. Naval Academy was established in Annapolis, Maryland. In 1911, Chinese revolutionaries launched an uprising which led to the collapse of the Qing (or Manchu) Dynasty and the establishment of the Republic of China. In 1913, the Panama Canal was effectively completed as President Woodrow Wilson sent a signal from the White House by telegraph, setting off explosives that destroyed a section of the Gamboa dike. In 1938, Nazi Germany completed its annexation of Czechoslovakia’s Sudetenland (soo-DAYT’-uhn-land). In 1943, Chiang Kai-shek took the oath of office as president of China. In 1957, President Dwight D.

World Brazil candidate accused of spreading fake news By MAURICIO SAVARESE Associated Press
SAO PAULO — The runoff race for Brazil’s presidency is heating up with a battle over fake news. The center-left contender on Tuesday accused his far-right rival’s campaign of defaming him with false stories on social media and messaging apps. Independent fact checkers say Fernando Haddad has been targeted by a wave of false allegations, some accusing him of planning to shut down churches and distribute textbooks teaching children to be gay. He blamed his adversary, Jair Bolsonaro, of planting or failing to condemn the falsehoods. “The lies come from him (Bolsonaro), so he will not accept any ethical commitment.
He will continue to slander, insult,” Haddad said. He said his campaign had managed to have 33 videos removed from social media sites. “One had 3 million views when it was removed. We try to stop it, but people watch them.” Haddad on Monday asked Bolsonaro to jointly sign a commitment against spreading fake news before the Oct. 28 runoff, but Bolsonaro rejected the idea, calling Haddad “a scoundrel” in a Twitter post. Haddad said Tuesday the refusal was “a proof of dishonesty” and said his adversary “is profiting from these lies.” Bolsonaro, a former army captain, won Sunday’s first round of voting with 46 percent. Former Sao Paulo Mayor Haddad, who was hand-picked by jailed former President

US student detained in Israel for alleged boycott support By ISABEL DEBRE Associated Press
JERUSALEM — In a groundbreaking case, Israel has detained an American graduate student at its international airport for the past week, accusing her of supporting a Palestinianled boycott campaign against the Jewish state. The case highlights Israel’s concerns about the boycott movement and the great efforts it has made to stop it. The grassroots campaign has made significant inroads in recent years, particularly among university students and millennials. Lara Alqasem, a 22-year-old U.S. citizen with Palestinian grandparents, landed at BenGurion Airport last Tuesday with a valid student visa. But she was barred from entering the country and ordered deported, based on suspicions she is a boycott supporter.
An Israeli court has ordered that she remain in custody while she appeals. The weeklong detention is the longest anyone has been held in a boycott-related case, and it was not immediately clear on Tuesday when a final decision would be made. In the meantime, she has been spending her days in a closed area with little access to a telephone, no internet and a bed that was infested with bedbugs, according to people who have spoken to her. Alqasem, from the Fort Lauderdale suburb of Southwest Ranches, Florida, is a former president of the University of Florida chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine. The group is a branch of the BDS movement, whose name comes from its calls for boycotts, divestment and sanctions against Israel. BDS supporters say that in urging businesses, artists and

universities to sever ties with Israel, they are using nonviolent means to resist unjust policies toward Palestinians. Israel says the movement masks its motives to delegitimize or destroy the Jewish state. “Lara served as president of a chapter of one of the most ex-
treme and hate-filled anti-Israel BDS groups in the U.S.,” said Strategic Affairs Minister Gilad Erdan, who spearheads the Israeli government’s efforts against the boycott. “Israel will not allow entry to those who work to harm the country, whatever their excuse.”
Beijing has no intention of using “competitive devaluation,” said a foreign ministry spokesman, Lu Kang. A U.S. official told reporters in Washington the Trump administration is concerned about the weakening yuan. The official spoke on condition of anonymity ahead of Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin’s trip to Indonesia for meetings of the International Monetary Fund and World Bank. The tightly controlled yuan has lost almost 10 percent of its value against the dollar this year. That prompted suggestions Beijing might weaken the currency to help exporters that face punitive U.S. tariffs of up to 25 percent. However, the decline also threatens to damage the Chinese economy by encouraging capital to flow out of the world’s second-largest economy, increasing borrowing costs at a time when communist leaders are trying to shore up cooling growth. The central bank intervened in August and tightened controls to discourage speculative trading.
Man with hammer hacks Algeria statue of bare-breasted woman ALGIERS, Algeria — A man with a hammer on Tuesday attacked and damaged a statue of a bare-breasted woman, an emblem of the eastern city of Setif, in the latest in a series of such attacks. Setif communications director Mohamed Touiri said that a Salafist, someone who adheres to a conservative brand of Islam, disfigured the face, breasts and arm of the statue, which is the centerpiece of a fountain in the heart of the city nearly 300 kilometers (185 miles) east of Algiers, the capital. The suspect was detained and will undergo a mental exam, he said. Culture Minister Azzedine Mihoubi, who is from Setif, suggested in a tweet that the culprit was the same man who damaged the statue last year. The colonial-era statue is the work of French sculptor Francis Saint Vidal, dating to 1889.
Merkel talks with Palestinian leader after Israel visit JERUSALEM — German Chancellor Angela Merkel has spoken with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas by telephone days after saying she would push him to return to negotiations with Israel. Neither leader indicated Tuesday that they discussed a renewal of peace talks, but both voiced support for a two-state solution to the conflict. Last week, Merkel said after joint governmental meetings in Israel that she would tell Abbas to return to the negotiating table. — The Associated Press

COOKING ON DEADLINE: Cauliflower Tots
‘G rannie ’ A nnie B erg
Memories of Costco The State Of Alaska sends residents who have lived here for one year a check that was at one time an overflow of money from the oil companies. It has always been welcomed in our house hold and used wisely! This story was suggested by Bob who has a vivid imagination and a memory for fine details. There is an article written by Susan Dunsmore in this year’s October Alaska Magazine that reminded Bob of the first time we visited Costco. She suggested that if you are looking for a boyfriend for the winter, try Costco. She says you can tell a lot of the man by what he has in his cart. It is a hilarious story — you should read it. The year of our first trek to Costco was about 1987. We lived in a small one-bedroom cabin. We received our permanent fund checks at the same time Bob’s son, Mugs, age 9, was coming to visit us. With much discussion we decided while we were in Anchorage picking Mugs up, we should go to Costco for some much need items. We picked Mugs up at the airport our 1962-3 (?) LTD Ford and stopped at Costco. I took a big cart and Bob and Mugs took one. We headed off to pick up a “few” needed items. I do not know who broke the rule first, but it was like a big dam burst. The few items grew bigger and bigger in our carts. I wanted 50 pounds of flour, and 25 pounds of sugar and all the cooking supplies that go with it. AND I needed canisters! Big canisters! We got some clothing, and for some reason Bob and Mugs found the candy isle. Big bags of candy, nuts, candy bars and a large sack of gummy worms found there way into the cart. We wheeled our overflowing baskets up to the cashier, loaded our “bounty” back in the carts and out to the car. Opened the trunk See ANNIE, page A8

There is no question that cauliflower has been having a long, popular moment. I was already a cauliflower fan, even a cauliflower lover, mostly favoring sliced and broken chunks of cauliflower tossed with a generous amount of olive oil, sprinkled with a liberal amount of salt, and roasted to a deep caramelized brown in a fairly high oven. My family can eat a baking sheet of that before dinner even hits the table. But geez, once people started realizing you could “rice” cauliflower — e.g., chop it into tiny rice-sized pieces — it blossomed into a true “thing.” It can be used in stir fries, pizza crusts, risottos, meatloaves — anywhere reg-
ular rice might appear, cauliflower is edging its way in. Now, cauliflower is taking over your tater tot! The same general concept — finely chopped and cooked cauliflower bits — is showing up in the form of caulitots. To start with, these are just plain delicious. (The cheese does not hurt.) Second, they are just plain fun. Third, if you are among those parents wondering how to get more vegetables into your kids’ bellies, you may have found a go-to solution. You might even want to enlist a kid or two to help you form the tots. Here are some variations I’m going to try adding to the tots in the future: minced chives, chopped parsley, a pinch of garlic powder, or chili powder or paprika. But if you make them just as

Pasta loaded with tender bites of sausage, kale and beans By AMERICA’S TEST KITCHEN
We had our hearts set on a onepot pasta loaded with tender bites of browned sausage, hearty kale, and creamy cannellini beans. To streamline the recipe, rather than boil the pasta separately or remove the sausage from the pot once it had browned, we built flavor in layers, allowing the addition of each component to form a creamy sauce that tied the dish together. After browning the sausage, we added chopped onion and a can of cannellini beans and cooked them alongside the meat. Some of the beans broke down, creating an effortlessly creamy sauce, and those that held their shape absorbed lots of meaty taste. To boost the sausage’s robust seasoning, we stirred in minced garlic, fennel seeds, oregano, and red pepper flakes, blooming their flavors in the hearty base. When it came to the pasta, orecchiette’s ear-like shape promised to trap the sauce without getting too entwined with the kale. We added the orecchiette along with both water and chicken broth and brought the mixture to a simmer. Incorporating the chopped kale in stages worked best, as adding it all at
once caused the pasta to cook unevenly by forming an unwanted insulating barrier around the orecchiette. Plus, the longer-cooked kale blended into the sauce, while the kale added later contributed nice texture. Our finished dish boasted perfectly al dente pasta with plenty of flavor—an ideal weeknight dinner. You can substitute 8 ounces of other pasta shapes for the orecchiette; however, the cup amounts will vary as follows: 2 1/2 cups for ziti, penne, and campanelle; 3 cups for medium shells; and 3 1/4 cups for farfalle.

Stout beer adds richness to this gingerbread bundt cake By AMERICA’S TEST KITCHEN
In our opinion, gingerbread is only worth eating if its flavor is unmistakably bold and spicy. For our gingerbread bundt cake, the standard liquid combination of mild molasses and water seemed lackluster. Robust molasses had more presence in our scaled-up cake, and we replaced the water with stout for a deeper flavor profile. The beer gave the cake a malty tang that tasters loved. Powdered ginger provided a spicy kick, and a little cinnamon and allspice contributed warm notes. Blooming the spices in melted butter—a technique the test kitchen uses for savory spiced dishes—intensified their flavor, but tasters still wanted more ginger. A bit of grated fresh ginger added another layer of heat that the

and pushed and shoved as much goodies as we possible could and still be able Continued from page A7 to shut the trunk lid We opened the back door and started packing things into the back seat. Higher and higher it grew. Bob is good at packing things into small spaces. The 50 pounds of flour went in the middle of the back seat, and the 25 pounds of sugar beside it. He then packed all that was left in the carts around the flour and sugar. The floor of the car was filled up, and the last thing was a coffee pot I wanted. That went onto the floor in the passenger front seat, so I could fit my feet beside it. Well, the ONE thing we forgot was where Mugs was going to sit!! He solved that by climbing over the mound of groceries in the back seat and perched on the 50 pounds of lour! He towered above us in the front seat. We all laughed at the big stash topped by Mugs! The LTD looked like an overloaded freight train. The nose of the car high in the air and the back almost dragging on the ground, BUT we did not care — we had Mugs and a car load of “stuff we needed?” Our trip home was uneventful and so much fun. Mugs, being a good sport, never complained about his perch! After unloading the car and relieving it of its load, we packed every nook and cranny and cupboards full of our Costco stash into the cabin. We were happy and all set for the winter. A few days later we went to the circus that was in town at the Sports Arena. I had only seen a few circuses in my life and we wanted to take Mugs. So we found our seat in the very middle of the arena about four flights up. We were surrounded by lots of happy people who jabbered and talked as much as we did. We spotted daughter, Gail, and her then young son, Arleigh, age 3, way across the arena on the other side. I waved and waved, until they saw us. Just them Areligh started crying, screaming and sobbing. I looked at Bob and started to say he must be scared of the elephants. To my horror, I looked at Bob with gummy worms sticking out of his ears, nose and mouth! AND Mugs had done the same sitting behind me, only he had twice as many sticking out of his mouth, nose and ears! They were waiting for me to see them! I could not believe my eyes — sitting in the middle of a bunch of people we slightly knew, with a grinning grown man and a crazy kid with gummy worms stuck everywhere. They laughed so loud at my reaction they lost most of the gummy worms and ate the rest. It was then that I realized that Arleigh MUST have seen his Grandma setting next to a man and a boy with worms sticking out all over! Arleigh cried so hard Gail had to take him home. I KNOW that is what happened to him! I was sure! Gail told me, NO, that was not the reason; he indeed was scared of the elephants. I am still not sure. So this is the end of my story about our trip to Costco and the gummy worms. I never pass a bag of those disgusting things without smiling a little. AND you will NEVER get me to eat one! Bob and I laughed at this memory that will be forever stashed in our memory bank. This was proof read and approved by Bob! Thanks Bob!

The trick to getting velvety pumpkin soup is canned pumpkin By AMERICA’S TEST KITCHEN
This velvety pumpkin soup is surprisingly easy and fast thanks to canned pumpkin. The trick is getting rich, balanced pumpkin flavor out of a can. We started by creating a deeply flavorful base for our soup by softening onion and then adding cumin, coriander, and nutmeg, which gave us a warm-spiced flavor that paired well with pumpkin. Maple syrup was the ideal sweetener, adding depth and enhancing the nuttiness of the soup without overwhelming it with sweetness. A combination of vegetable broth and water gave the soup a subtle savory backbone, and just a half cup of half-andhalf gave us an ideal creamy texture. Briefly simmering the pumpkin in the flavorful liquid allowed the flavors to meld and cooked off the tinny flavor of the canned pumpkin; we then pureed the soup to a silky consistency. Be sure to buy pure canned pumpkin, not pumpkin pie filling, which has sugar and spices added. Crumbled blue cheese and toasted, chopped walnuts make nice garnishes to this soup.
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg 3 cups vegetable broth, plus extra as needed 2 cups water 1 (15-ounce) can unsweetened pumpkin puree 1/4 cup maple syrup 1/2 cup half-and-half Salt and pepper Melt butter in Dutch oven over medium heat.

Stir in broth, water, pumpkin, and maple syrup, scraping up any browned bits, and bring to boil. Reduce to simmer and cook until flavors have melded, about 15 minutes. Working in batches, process soup in blender until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Return pureed soup to clean pot and stir in

Red Sox take care of Yanks By RONALD BLUM AP Baseball Writer
NEW YORK — Eduardo Nunez charged Gleyber Torres’ four-hopper toward third base and whipped the ball across the diamond. Steve Pearce stretched, falling on his chest for a sprawling catch. The umpire signaled: “Out!” The Boston Red Sox gathered around exhausted closer Craig Kimbrel, hugging and celebrating after the New York Yankees’ two-run rally in the ninth inning fell short. But wait! In 21st century baseball, the game doesn’t always end when it seems, hanging in limbo until umpires in a downtown Manhattan replay room agree. A Yankee Stadium crowd of 49,641 wondered and the Red Sox paused as they watched from the infield in suspended celebration, fixated on the center-field video board. After 63 seconds that felt like a lot longer, crew chief Mike Winters heard the decision, took off his headset, raised his right fist and made it official: The Red Sox beat the Yankees 4-3 Tuesday night to win the AL Division Series 3-1, setting up a postseason rematch with the World Series champion Astros. “I’ve been talking about them the whole season, so now we go,” said Red Sox rookie manager Alex Cora, Houston’s bench coach last year. “Best of
seven. They know me. I know them. It should be fun.” J.D. Martinez and the 108win Red Sox reached the AL Championship Series for the first time since Boston won the title in 2013. A year after losing to Houston in a four-game ALDS, the Red Sox open the best-of-seven matchup against the 103-win Astros on Saturday night at Fenway Park. Houston went 4-3 against Boston this year. “Awesome to clinch this one,” Red Sox reliever Matt Barnes said, “but we’ve got eight more.” A New Jersey native who grew up a Mets fan, Rick Porcello held the Yankees to one run over five innings for his first postseason win in 13 appearances. Barnes and Ryan Brasier followed with a perfect inning each to protect a 4-1 lead. Red Sox ace Chris Sale told Cora when he arrived at the ballpark that he wanted to pitch, and he followed with a 1-2-3 eighth in a rare relief appearance that extended the Yankees’ streak of consecutive outs to 11. New York had not put a leadoff runner on until Kimbrel, a seven-time All-Star closer, walked Aaron Judge on four pitches leading off the ninth. Didi Gregorius singled and Giancarlo Stanton struck out, Luke Voit walked on four pitches, and Kimbrel hit Neil Walker on a leg with his next pitch, forcing in a run that made it 4-2.

Kenai grad Dye stars for Marian Staff report Peninsula Clarion
Kenai golfer Max Dye posted the lowest round of the Marian University (Wisconsin) men’s team in the opening rounds of the Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference Championship held Sunday and Monday. Contested at the Whistling Straits Irish course in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, the first and second rounds of the championship tournament will be followed up in late April at the Stonebridge Country Club in Aurora, Illinois. Dye, a 2017 Kenai Central High grad, finished the two-

Dye sits 11 strokes behind the lead. Dye entered the weekend as the best Marian golfer with an average round score of 78.5 shots and a current low of 76. Dye’s weekend efforts in the NACC championships helped Marian to a fifth-place team standing among nine schools, with a combined over-par score of plus-80.

SoHi volleyball tops Homer Staff report Peninsula Clarion
The visiting Soldotna volleyball team defeated Homer 25-14, 25-17, 25-27 and 2520 on Tuesday in nonconference play. Both squads were coming off a full weekend of play at the Grizzly Invitational in Anchorage. “To beat a team on their floor coming off this weekend is nice,” said Soldotna coach Sheila Kupferschmid after improving to 12-2 overall. “The kids were a little tired and lacked some focus.” Aliann Schmidt led the
Stars with 18 kills, four aces and four blocks, while Brittani Blossom had 18 points won on her serve and five aces. Also for the Stars, Carsen Brown had 43 assists, Holleigh Jaime had 12 digs and Kodi McGillivray had nine kills. SoHi now turns its focus to hosting two games against Northern Lights Conference foe Wasilla — Thursday at 6 p.m. and Saturday at 12:30 p.m. Wasilla is 4-0 in the league, while the Stars are 5-1. These two matches will complete league play for Soldotna. Kupferschmid said another big event on the horizon
is a Pink Out match to benefit the Central Peninsula Health Foundation at SoHi on Oct. 25 vs. Kenai. Homer coach Sara Pennington also said her team was sluggish. “We started off pretty slow today,” Pennington told the Homer News. “But we just huddled up and said, hey, we need to be more aggressive, we need to take it to them and we just need to play as hard as we can, hustle as fast as we can. “And they did, and they did it very well.” In the final game, the Mariners had cut the gap to 24-20 when Pennington called an il-
legal timeout, giving the Stars a point and the match. “We were able to come back, and then, I’m just mad I lost it for them,” she said after falling to 5-3 in nontournament play with a second loss to Soldotna. “I take full responsibility because I know that they can hustle and they can get back every point like they did in that third game. … But I’m super proud of them. Their hustle was unbelievable — they were loud, they were positive, they never got down on themselves, and that’s how I hope they play the rest of the season.” Homer hosts Nikiski at 1:30 p.m. Saturday.
Koepka nabs PGA Tour player of year Award trophy as the PGA Tour player of the year. Koepka is the sixth player in the last six U.S. Open and PGA champion Brooks years to win the award, the longest streak of Koepka added to his trophy collection Tues- different winners since PGA Tour players beday when he picked up the Jack Nicklaus gan voting on the award in 1990. By DOUG FERGUSON AP Golf Writer
Along with winning two majors, Koepka said he was most proud of his attitude when he wasn’t playing. He missed four months at the start of the year recovering from a partially torn tendon in his left wrist but then made up for lost time in a big way.

Police reports n On Sept. 18 at 4:48 a.m., Kenai police were notified of a vehicle entering the ditch near the Warren Ames Bridge on Bridge Access Road. A second caller reported that the vehicle recovered onto the roadway, and the female driver appeared intoxicated. Officers located the vehicle traveling eastbound on the Kenai Spur Highway and attempted to stop it. The vehicle rolled near Kenai Central High School and again recovered onto the roadway. It continued to the area of the Kenai Spur Highway and Dogwood Road and again rolled, this time hitting a Homer Electric Association power pole. The driver, Danielle M. Anaruk, 20, of Soldotna, was arrested on charges of first-degree failure to stop at the direction of a peace officer, driving while intoxicated, driving in violation of an instruction permit, and minor operating a vehicle after consuming alcohol. Anaruk was taken to Wildwood Pretrial. n On Sept. 18 at 8:16 a.m., Kenai police received a REDDI (Report Every Dangerous Driver Immediately) report of

who are members of a religious organization with an “established presence” in the borough that meets regularly — was inclusive of all religious groups. In today’s ruling, the Superior Court rejected that claim. “The Resolution is inclusive of tax-exempt religious association(s) serving residents of the borough. It is not inclusive of every religious view or belief practiced by the residents of the Kenai Peninsula Borough,” the court decision states. “Plaintiffs Hunt, Fontana, and Boyer are all examples of borough residents whose religions values are excluded and disfavored by the Resolution.” Lance Hunt, an atheist, Iris Fontana, a member of The Satanic Temple, and Elise Boyer, a member of the small Jewish community in Homer, all applied to give invocations after

During the Alaska Legislature’s most recent session, lawmakers passed a resolution declaring a linguistic emergency for Alaska Native languages, and Gov. Bill Walker signed an administrative order in September to officially declare the state of emergency. European and American governments worked for centuries to suppress Alaska Native languages and prevent children from speaking them in schools. Heather Gatti, who is the special assistant to Central Council of Tlingit and Haida Indian Tribes of Alaska President Richard (Chalyee Éesh) Peterson, said the state’s declaration had a twofold effect. “While it’s exciting to get that recognition that it’s an emergency, it’s still the realization that they’re in emergency,” Gatti said. “We can all be doing our part. Learning how to say ‘hello’ and ‘thank you’ in the language is still a way to make sure it’s surviving.” Those everyday phrases were key to Monday’s celebration, as language leaders took the stage and spoke to
a black Suburban near Mile 4 of the Kenai Spur Highway. Officers responded, and Amber L. Erickson, 32, of Kenai, was arrested on charges of driving under the influence, fourthdegree misconduct involving a controlled substance, and two counts of first-degree endangering the welfare of a child and was taken to Wildwood Pretrial. n On Sept. 17 at 8:49 p.m., the Kenai Police Department received a call on their administrative line regarding a male who was in the parking lot of a local business, trying to open car doors and punching windows. After investigation, Noah D. Price, 23, of Soldotna, was arrested for attempted first-degree vehicle theft and seconddegree criminal trespass and was taken to Wildwood Pretrial. n On Sept. 16 at 8:18 p.m., Kenai police responded to a local business to a report of a person being detained for theft. Officers arrived and contacted all parties. After investigation, Daniel K. Rankin, 39, of Sterling ,was arrested for thirddegree theft and fifth-degree misconduct involving weapons and was taken to Wildwood Pretrial.
n On Sept. 15 at 10:34 a.m., Kenai police officers were attempting to locate a subject who had an outstanding warrant. A short time later, Job Sallison, 34, of Kenai, was located and arrested on a Soldotna Alaska State Troopers $250 misdemeanor warrant for failure to appear for status hearing on the original charge of petition to revoke probation, technical violation, bail cash/APP. n On Sept. 13 at 11:06 p.m., Kenai police received a report of a suspicious vehicle at a house on Togiak Street. Officers responded, and investigation led to the arrest of Aaron, G. Troxell-Tom, 22, of Soldotna, on charges of first-degree criminal trespass, second-degree theft, tampering with physical evidence, and fourth-degree misconduct involving a controlled substance. Also arrested was James O. Segura, 43, of Kenai, on charges of first-degree criminal trespass and second-degree theft. Both Troxell-Tom and Segura were taken to Wildwood Pretrial. n On Sept. 12 at 3:22 p.m., Kenai police had contact with Jaycee C. Herrmann, 18, of Kenai, near Mile 14 of the Kenai Spur Highway. A routine
records check resulted in Herrmann being arrested for four outstanding Soldotna Alaska State Troopers warrants, total bail $20,000, on charges of felony failure to appear for status hearing on the original charges of second-degree theft, thirddegree, fourth-degree, and fifth-degree misconduct involving a controlled substance, and violating conditions of release, $5,000 bail; misdemeanor failure to appear for status hearing on original charges of fourthdegree and fifth-degree misconduct involving weapons and fourth-degree misconduct involving a controlled substance, $5,000 bail; misdemeanor failure to appear for status hearing on original charges of fifth-degree misconduct involving a controlled substance and violating conditions of release, $5,000 bail; and misdemeanor failure to appear for status hearing on original charges of fourth-degree misconduct involving a controlled substance and violating conditions of release, $5,000 bail. Herrmann was taken to Wildwood Pretrial on the warrants. n On Sept. 12 at 7:55 p.m., Kenai police made a routine traffic stop on the Bridge Ac-
cess Road near Childs Avenue. A routine records checks on the occupants resulted in William F. Cole, 34, of Anchorage, being arrested on an outstanding Anchorage Alaska State Troopers Justice System felony parole warrant on charges of second-degree burglary and second-degree escape, no bail. n On Sept. 11 at about 3:30 p.m., Kenai police were called to a business near Mile 10 of the Kenai Spur Highway regarding a previously trespassed female being on the premises. Officer response resulted in a summons to court for Amanda L. Richmond, 37, of Kenai, on a charge of second-degree criminal trespass. n On Sept. 11, as a result of an ongoing investigation into a burglary at a business on Main Street in Kenai, Jadon Galloway, 18, of Kenai, was arrested for second-degree burglary, second-degree theft, and thirddegree criminal mischief. Galloway was taken to Wildwood Pretrial. A 17-year-old juvenile was also arrested and taken to the Kenai Peninsula Youth Facility on related charges. n On Sept. 18 at 4:56 p.m., Alaska State Troopers responded to a three-vehicle collision
on Kalifornsky Beach Road near Poppy Lane. Investigation revealed that Justen Galley, 28, of Kenai, was driving a Dodge van northbound on Kalifornsky Beach Road, when he rear ended a stopped SUV. The SUV was pushed into the back of the stopped car in front of it. All vehicles sustained major damage. Two occupants reported minor injuries. Galley was issued a citation for failure to exercise due care to avoid a collision. n On Sept. 17 at about 9:20 a.m., Alaska State Troopers responded to a residence off Diane Street in Sterling, where Janae Ann Lafae, 58, of Sterling, was contacted and arrested on four outstanding warrants. Lafae was taken to Wildwood Pretrial Facility on $250 bail for four counts of failure to appear for arraignment on the original charge of violating probation. n n Sept. 19 at 1:19 a.m., Kenai Police contacted Amanda Kivi, 30, of Niksiki, at a business near Mile 10.5 of the Kenai Spur Highway. Kivi had previously been trespassed from the business and was arrested on a charge of seconddegree criminal trespass and taken to Wildwood Pretrial Facility.
the policy was established in 2016. All three were denied because they did not belong to official organizations with an established presence on the peninsula. “Plaintiffs allege that the invocation selection policy implemented through the Resolution violates the prohibition against the establishment of religion, denies them of their freedom of speech and freedom of association, and denies them of their entitlement to equal rights, opportunities, and protection,” the decision states. The Superior Court ruled only on the establishment clause issue, and did not reach a decision on the free speech, freedom of association and equal protection claims because it disposed of the issue by ruling that the invocation resolution violated the Alaska Constitution. A Homer man, Barrett Fletcher, started a chapter of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster in January to
test the borough’s invocation policy. When the borough assembly met in Homer on Sept. 18, Fletcher applied to deliver the invocation, but was denied because his chapter did not meet the resolution’s criteria. Fletcher was not part of the lawsuit. “Essentially I’m glad the court upheld the constitution and I hope the Assembly will just drop the whole thing rather than fan (further) controversy,” Fletcher said in a message to the Homer News. “But the First Lower Congregation of Pastafarians will likely continue to have the occasional meeting just because it turns out to be (as His Noodliness, The Great Flying Spaghetti Monster intended) kind of fun.” The borough assembly has for decades opened each meeting with a prayer from a member of the community, predominately Christian pastors. Those wishing to give invocations had to voluntarily sign up on a first come, first serve basis.
The invocation policy arose out of a larger discussion about the role of prayer at the public meetings. In 2016, borough residents started saying the invocations made them uncomfortable and suggested the borough do away with the practice entirely. An ordinance that would have eliminated the invocations was shot down before it could be introduced, so the assembly went in the other direction, deciding to let anyone from the community give one. In August 2016, Fontana gave an invocation before an assembly meeting that ended with the words “Hail Satan,” which sparked more community outcry and conversation. Eventually, assembly members came to a consensus on a policy to guide how invocations could be given before meetings, and adopted its new policy in October 2016. The policy restricted the ability to give an invocation to those who were members of an organization with an estab-
lished presence on the peninsula, that “regularly meet for the primary purpose of sharing a religious perspective,” according to the resolution that set up the policy. The borough has defended its policy based on the decision made in Town of Greece v. Galloway, a 2014 case in which the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that it did not violate the Constitution for government bodies to allow invocations before their meetings. But the Superior Court found the Greece policy did not have the restrictions of the borough resolution. “The court held that sectarian invocations are constitutional so long as a policy of nondiscrimination is maintained,” the Alaska Superior Court wrote of the Greece case in its decision. The Superior Court went on to find that “history and tradition support an inclusive invocation policy. Not one that is inclusive of “diverse religious association(s),” but rather one that is inclusive of every faith.
The Resolution at issue here excludes minority faiths from participating in the invocation practice.” The borough, represented by Anchorage-based attorney Kevin Clarkson, had filed for a partial summary judgment on three out of the four claims made by the plaintiffs. The plaintiffs, represented by Eric Glatt of the Alaska Civil Liberties Union, then filed their own motion for a summary judgment on all four of their claims. A summary judgment can be granted when neither party disagrees about the facts of the case. “The parties in this case agree that the material facts are not in dispute and the case should be resolved on summary judgment; they just disagree over the outcome,” the decision states.

3,000-gallon tank and trench leach field, was installed in 2002. “The septic system is in a state of failure and needs to be replaced,” Parra said. At Tuesday’s Borough Assembly meeting, an ordinance making $50,000 from the North Peninsula Recreation Service Area’s operating fund available for a new septic system was introduced in the agenda. According to the ordinance, the system has reached the end of its useful life and is malfunctioning, resulting in leaks on the ground’s surface and back-
ups into the facility. The North Peninsula Recreation Service Area board recommends completely replacing the existing septic system, which would cost around $50,000 and include engineering, a geotechnical investigation of soils, the demolition of the existing system, the construction of the new system, project administrative services and a site restoration that includes all of the affected areas, according to the ordinance. Public hearing for the ordinance will be at the Oct. 23 Borough Assembly meeting.

ment should have prompted the base manager to suspend the flights,” according to the report. The base manager told the pilot “to do what’s best,” the report states. The manager’s “failure to appropriately exercise operational control” might have been due to Maggio’s greater level of experience, Hodges wrote. The crash would not have occurred if the manager had shut down operations for the
day, Hodges wrote. On the return to Skagway during the sixth flight, the pilot likely encountered low-visibility conditions, leading him to attempt several departure routes north of the camp. He likely lost visual reference and flew into a mountain, according to the report. A U.S. Coast Guard helicopter accessed the crash site hours later, confirming Maggio died in the wreckage.
one had called him back yet. “I almost wish I had taken the weight with us as evidence,” Montesano said. Alaska State Troopers did not respond to the newspaper’s questions Sunday about the find or if the agency is investigating.
Montesano said he hopes that telling people about the cubs might prompt someone to come forward and give information to authorities. “I hope it will create some peer pressure for someone to do something right,” Montesano said.

CCTHITA organized the event, along with the Sealaska Corporation and Southeast Alaska Regional Health Consortium (SEARHC). A few of the speakers introduced themselves in multiple languages. Nancy Barnes, the leader of Yees Ku Oo, said her mother was fluent in the Tsimshian language Sm’algyax, but that she was punished for speaking it publicly. As a result, Barnes said, her mother didn’t teach her children much of the language to spare them from similar punishment. Now, Barnes and her niece (also named Nancy Barnes) attend a Sm’algyax language learners’ group every Saturday in an effort to discover the language and reclaim a key piece of their culture. “I didn’t understand that the languages were in a state of emergency,” the younger Barnes, 19, said. “Now that I get to experience everybody trying to learn and speak their language, it’s really important and it’s really empowering. When you see other people who know more of the language than you, it just makes me strive to want to know more.” A report from the Alaska Native Language Preserva-

While there are concerns about the survival of these languages, Monday’s event was still very much a celebration. The event hall was packed with people from all corners of the community. Tribal citizens Lyle James and Stephanie Masterman were the two keynote speakers at the event. James, who goes by his Tlingit name Xeetli.éesh, lives in Juneau and is one of the leaders of the Woosh.ji.een dance group. Masterman, whose Tlingit name is Saał’gín, lives in Seattle but is originally from Hoonah. She was recently elected as an Emerging Leader and is an artist, student and youth ambassador for the Seattle Tlingit & Haida Community Council. The older Barnes pointed out that there were many tribal citizens in the audience Monday, but people from all over the community were there. “I think it’s good to recognize all cultures and all our differences,” Barnes said. “It just makes us richer and better.”

Man learns he may have a son he never knew about it might be better to reach out to the woman you had the relationship with, tell her what the friend told you and ask her if it’s true. If she concealed the information from her son or from the man who raised him, possibly thinking the boy was his, it could be traumatic for everyone concerned. So, if you do decide to move forward Abigail Van Buren on this, explain that if it’s true, you think it might be in her son’s best interests to know. DEAR ABBY: My daughter, a widow, started going out with men she meets on dating websites last year. She has three children; the youngest is 10. She has a full-time job and doesn’t smoke, drink or use drugs. She goes out five to seven times a week. I have all the responsibility for the children’s care, school, church, laundry, cooking, etc. I’m feeling very overburdened. While I don’t mind doing all these things, I feel taken advantage of. Am I wrong or is it now normal for a mother to go out that much?
When she’s home, she’s constantly checking her texts and social media. Please advise. -- USED IN TEXAS DEAR USED: You are a caring, loving, responsible mother and grandmother. However, you are also an enabler. You are allowing yourself to be used. Your daughter appears to be immature and centered entirely on herself. It is NOT “normal” for a mother to be out socializing as often as your daughter is. To ignore her children in favor of social media to the extent that you described is neglectful. You are entitled to a life of your own, so stop doing your daughter’s job as much as you have been and start doing some things for yourself.

DEAR ABBY: I have been married for 27 years and have three wonderful kids. The youngest is 16. I recently found out I may have another son from a relationship prior to my marriage. The woman never notified me or asked for child support. I found out through someone else a couple of months ago and, thanks to social media, was able to find him and look at his picture. He looks exactly like I did 25 years ago. The problem is, when I mentioned it to my wife, she did not want to discuss the possibility. She acts like nothing happened and asked me not to bring it up again. What would you recommend in a situation like this? Should I say nothing and let it be, or risk ruining my marriage? -- VACILLATING IN VIRGINIA DEAR VACILLATING: I find it interesting that someone would know you possibly had another son all this time and didn’t say anything sooner. If it’s true, the young man might like to know, if only so he can have a complete familial medical history. I don’t see how establishing the truth could “ruin” your marriage unless your wife is selfcentered and immature. However, rather than suddenly appear out of nowhere with the news,

people that make this event successful — such as security, environmental services, pharmacy, support services, administration, food services, marketing, employee health and infection prevention. But, they all help us to have a
healthy community and we’re glad to do it. It was definitely busier this year, and it looks like we gave 100 more shots than last year. That’s a good thing,” she said. Ashley Carver has been a Kenai Peninsula College nursing student for about a month and volunteered for the DriveThru Clinic. “I’ve gotten pretty good at it and I haven’t had any com-
plaints so far, everyone is loving it,” said a busy Carver, who was reaching for another syringe. Stephanie Bias is a mom and a nursing student at KPC and one of the family owners of the Peninsula Center Mall. “I’ve wanted to be a nurse for a very long time. It’s been a long time coming I’ve been trying to get in for three years. It’s a highly competi-
tive, highly desired program and having it available locally is a great advantage. It’s cost effective, and I don’t have to leave my family or business,” said Bias. “I’m excited and thrilled to be here today it’s a chance for us to give back to the community,” added Roxanne — another one of the 10 students that administered nearly 400 vaccinations.

afternoons. They were very well attended and very educational for kids and their families,” said Festival coordinator Nancy Field of State Farm Insurance in Soldotna. Morgan Davie is young macramé artist who learned her skill after inheriting some glass fishing baubles from her husband’s grandfather.
“I needed to put them to use somewhere so started making macramé hangings for them and they turned into works of art so I kept knotting,” she laughed during an interview. At her booth Davie was selling plant and wall hangings, but said she can macramé anything. “I make room separators or curtains, doorways hangings — anything. I make up the patterns as I go, and they change and morph according to mood. I use cotton, but being here at the Fiber Festival I’m getting
excited about trying other locally grown fibers,” she said. Davie’s work is for sale and she has an Etsy page called keepitwavy. Karen Porter, a Fireweed Fiber Guild volunteer, said the guild is open to anyone who is interested — from the very beginner to masters who like to share. “We meet once a month every third Saturday at the Soldotna Library from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., and everyone is welcome. It’s a time when we get togeth-
er to sit, knit, spin or eat food. There’s no official meeting or agenda. We may brainstorm an event we want to plan, but for the most part it’s just a gathering. Some bring their spinning wheels, but mainly we inspire each other and have a lot of fun. And men are welcome too. Yes, it’s very therapeutic. My husband watches TV. I spin,” said Porter.
