State to appeal setnet initiative By MOLLY DISCHNER Morris News Service-Alaska Alaska Journal of Commerce

The State of Alaska will appeal a state Superior Court decision that would permit a ballot initiative that could ban setnets in certain parts of the state. The Alaska Fisheries Conservation Alliance, or AFCA, filed a ballot initiative petition in 2013 seeking to ask voters whether to ban setnets in urban parts of the state, which would primarily impact Upper Cook Inlet setnetters. Lt. Gov. Mead Treadwell rejected the initiative in

January, based on a state Department of Law opinion asserting that it would be a prohibited resource appropriation not allowed under the Alaska Constitution. In July, however, Anchorage Superior Court Judge Catherine Easter overturned Treadwell’s decision, and ordered the lieutenant governor to certify the initiative and allow proponents to continue the process of gathering signatures to get the question on the 2016 ballot. The state will appeal Easter’s ruling. Department of Law Assistant Attorney General Cori Mills wrote in an Aug. 5 email that the state will appeal the deci-

In the news DNR opens bids for SW Cook Inlet exploration license C

The Alaska Department of Natural Resources will hold a sealed bid opening for a exploration license on 168,581 acres around the Iniskin Peninsula of Southwest Cook Inlet. The bid opening will take place in the Kuparuk Room of the Atwood Building, 550 W. 7th Ave., in Anchorage beginning at 9 a.m. Wednesday, according to a DNR media release. Staff at DNR decided to hold the sealed bid opening as it received, for the first time, competing proposals for the same exploration license area, according to the release. The state’s exploration program is designed to encourage exploration in areas where infrastructure has yet to be developed, according to the release.

Out but not down Despite kitchen closure, The Way Café still providing meals By KELLY SULLIVAN Peninsula Clarion

Correction

Kenai Peninsula Borough School District Superintendent Dr. Steve Atwater accepted the position as the University of Alaska Associate Vice President for K-12 Outreach Tuesday. Atwater publicly announced his resignation as KPBSD superintendent effective Dec. 1 at the Monday Board of Education meeting and the board approved it. “My main interest in the job is that more and more I’m drawn to state-level work,” Atwater said. “And this is a chance to affect the conversation and the activity with school districts across the state.” Dr. Dana Thomas, Vice President of UA Academic Affairs and Research, who will be Atwater’s supervisor, said he is looking forward to Atwater fill the position. “He brings real credibility to the position, very strong credibility because he has … been a very successful superintendent in two school districts,” Thomas said. Thomas said Atwater’s Doctorate in Education Leadership, good working relationship with the Alaska Department of Education and Early Development and the respect of the deans of the UA Schools of Education will also help Atwater to transition smoothly into the position. Atwater will be acting as a liaison to encourage productive partnerships with Alaska schools with the UA Schools of Education, the Alaska Department of Education and Early Development and the Alaska Legislature “to better prepare our students to become teachers and to have post secondary success,” Atwater said. “I think that the liaison between the university and the K-12 system needs to be tightened,” he said. “I’m really excited about trying to do that.” Atwater said his talks with UA Academic Affairs department about the position began in June. Prior to an executive session held before the Monday night board meeting where Atwater tendered his resignation, board members, except for board president Joe Arness were unaware the change was forthcoming, Atwater said.

After shutting the doors to a facility that previously prepared food for patrons out of the Kenai Merit Inn up until January 3 this year, The Way Café free meals program has adapted its operations to continue feeding those in need in the Central Kenai Peninsula. Café volunteer organizer, Yvonne Meek, now delivers perishable and non-perishable food items to families, who can then prepare the ingredients in their home. The groceries are purchased through monetary donations still consistently coming into the program from

community members, she said. The program is still run through the Kenai First Baptist Church, Meek said. Many of the café’s previous patrons have moved away from the area. The only way for them to receive meals now is through a delivery service. “Recently I received a check for $300 for The way cafe,” Meek said. “We still call ourselves that.” Meals now come in the form of a “box” which can be a square container or grocery bags, Meek said. About 187 “boxes” have been delivered since January, she said. Meek said word-of-mouth advertising drives the program.

Neighbors or friends will tell Meek when they know someone who is going hungry. Meek said she has a list of people she contacts regularly. Sometimes people are to shy to

ask for food, she said. Meek delivers anything that can be found at a grocery store. She said she purchases anything from frozen to fresh, meats, cheese, crackers, soups, See MEALS, page A-12

Police seek victims in serial rape case Anchorage man arrested, charged with 10 counts of sexual assault Anchorage police are searching for additional victims of a man they allege is a serial rapist. Clifford Lee, of Anchorage, was arrested and charged with 10 counts of First Degree sexual assault – penetration without consent. Under Alaska Statute, each charge can be punished by up to 99 years in prison, though there are several mitigating factors that define the range of im-

prisonment time. He was taken to the Anchorage Jail, where he is being held under a $750,000 performance bond, $500,000 cash or corporate appearance bond, and a court-approved third-party custodian as the conditions of his potential release, according to a media release. The arrest was made after five women reported being sexually assaulted by an unknown

man after accepting a ride from him, according to the APD release. Lee is suspected of using a stun gun to force some of the victims into allowing the assault, according to the release. Each of the suspects gave a general description of the same physically identifying features, the male was Asian and driving a dark-colored SUV; one victim was able to identify a home C

Banks criticized for poor planning WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal regulators have told the biggest banks in the U.S. that their plans for unwinding their operations in case of failure are inadequate to prevent the sort of financial disaster that struck in 2008 and led to a massive government bailout. The Federal Reserve and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. on Tuesday criticized as “not credible” the so-called “living wills” that the 11 largest banks were required to submit under the 2010 law overhauling financial regulation. The banks, with $50 billion or more in assets, include Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase, Citigroup and Morgan Stanley. The regulators said the banks’ plans make unrealistic assumptions about likely developments in case of failure. The regulators gave the banks until July 2015 to come up with improved plans or face possible stricter regulation.

had three sons. Helen left her nursing career and became a full-time stay at home mom and became an active volunteer in many community projects and services. After her husband passed away, she moved to Alaska at age 60 and started an exciting new life. She had a passion for gardening, nature, hiking, camping out, and exploring all parts of Alaska. She lived in Anchorage and became involved at the Mable T. Caverly Senior Center, later to become Board President and eventually the Executive Director. She joined the “Prospector’s Club” and there began many new friendships with other seniors who loved exploring many different parts of Alaska and eventually some foreign countries overseas. In the final years of her life when Helen went for drives in a car or walks around Heritage Place, she would look up at the tall spruce trees in amazement of their size and beauty. Up to the end, she would greet all people with a smile and grasp on their hand. She was compassionate and would console people at Heritage Place who were having a difficult day. She has a warm and positive spirit and always had time to listen to other people. How very fortunate we have all been to have shared in Helen’s life!

What Others Say

Point Thomson shows resource past, future Progress in gas development at the long-

dormant Point Thomson fields is heartening to see. For decades, the resource-rich area hung in limbo as producers opted not to develop their leases. But recent years saw a thawing in the prospects for Point Thomson, as the state and producers settled a lawsuit over the undeveloped leases and work began in earnest to move toward production. It’s a win for the state and oil companies both. The plan for Point Thomson will see the field producing 10,000 barrels per day of natural gas condensate, which will be a welcome addition to the oil that flows through the trans-Alaska oil pipeline. More portentous in terms of the state’s energy future, the site will also process 200,000 cubic feet of natural gas per day — an amount producers say can be easily ramped up if plans for a liquefied natural gas pipeline continue to go forward. Point Thomson is what oil and gas regulars sometimes refer to as an “elephant” field, and the descriptor is apt. Such fields have giant conventional deposits of relatively easy-to-harvest oil and gas, and not surprisingly, few are left untapped. Point Thomson is the last such field in Alaska, and it represents both the past of Alaska oil and gas development and its future. The field is representative of the state’s past development because of its status as a huge conventional deposit. Prudhoe Bay was another such field, and oil and gas deposits of its nature are generally less expensive to develop and have long production lives in which they provide profits to developers and tax revenue to the state. The state’s resource development is in the process of transitioning from this model to one where producers chase smaller pools of oil where extraction can be more difficult due to geological factors or the nature of the oil being sought. Point Thomson, though, is also representative of the state’s resource future due to its abundant natural gas. Producers say the field will be the cornerstone of the Alaska LNG pipeline currently under study by the state and a group including ExxonMobil, BP, Conoco Phillips, and TransCanada. Such a line is unlikely to fully replace the revenue slowly bleeding from the trans-Alaska oil pipeline as Prudhoe Bay matures, but ExxonMobil officials estimate state revenues from the line would be in the vicinity of $3 billion to $4 billion for the state — money sorely needed as oil production starts to dwindle. The development at Point Thomson comes at a momentous time for the state, and one at which our transition from one oil and gas economic paradigm to another is coming into sharper focus. We hope that efforts to smooth that transition go forward as planned, and that the development of areas like Point Thomson allow the state to continue on solid economic footing for decades to come.

High tech, low standards

So much has happened so quickly that it’s high time to reflect on the technological marvels that change our lives at blinding speed. Of course, the blur of progress leaves little time to actually reflect, but let’s not take for granted how what was once science fiction suddenly has become commonplace. Does anybody even ponder how profound it is that the Internet made it so easy to create a Sarah Palin channel -- where those who are willing to pay the price can watch all-Sarahall-the-time? Setting aside your preference for NO-Sarah-all-the-time, it still is amazing how easy it is to set up a television outlet for her rants, or for anybody who can draw an audience. Is that progress or what? Think of the possibilities: How about a National Security channel, where we can play along in the game of exposing our intelligence leaders and their continuous stream of lies. CIA Director John Brennan is the latest breakout star now that he’s owned up to his spooks’ secretly hacking into the computers of Senate investigators. The Senate Intelligence Committee was compiling a report on U.S. torture, a seamy record made worse by false claims that the tactics helped prevent terrorist attacks. When confronted in March with charges that his people had broken into the Senate files, Brennan told NBC’s Andrea Mitchell that “nothing could be further

None of these high-tech outrages would have been possible just a few short years ago. We’ve accepted the trade-off, sacrificing any semblance of privacy for convenience. The very same GPS, for instance, that charts our every move, also means our every move gets us where we want to go. And how fulfilling it is when the female voice announces, “You have arrived!” I always want to shout: “Thank heaven. I’ve worked so hard.” It’s like at checkout, when the clerk asks if I want my parking ticket stamped: “Do you want validation?” “Oh, yes,” I exclaim. “We all need validation.” But I digress. As for our gadgets, we are forever refining them. Maybe we can tweak the voices on our devices so the directions are customized. We could have Ted Cruz guidance where every turn is to the right, and if we don’t get where he wants to go, he shuts down the car. Hillary Clinton can be the one providing directions to her presidential coronation, but her talk would cost $200,000. Actually, those of us in Washington wouldn’t need the GPS, because with all the gridlock we never get anywhere. That’s the sad commentary about all our progress: We’re not making any.

Hospital killing shows safety gap By MICHAEL RUBINKAM Associated Press

AP News Extra

When a man opened fire at a hospital outside Philadelphia, fatally shooting his caseworker and wounding his psychiatrist, the doctor saved his own life and probably the lives of others by pulling out a gun and shooting the patient. If Dr. Lee Silverman’s decision to arm himself at the office was unusual, the violence that erupted at Mercy Fitzgerald Hospital served as yet another illustration of the hazards mental health professionals face on the job — and, experts say, the need for hospitals to do more to protect them. Nurses, social workers, aides and other Fairbanks Daily News-Miner, mental health providers are at far greater risk Aug. 3 of assault than workers as a whole, an occupational hazard at the best of times and one that’s been made worse by a persistent lack of funding for mental health services, the loss of E-mail: thousands of inpatient psychiatric beds and news@peninsulaclarion.com the increasing use of hospitals to temporarily house criminals with mental illness.

from the truth. ... We wouldn’t do that.” As we now know, what was furthest from the truth was his denial. His peeps did do that, and now he’s apologized ... for getting caught. He’s not the only Bob Franken master of deceit. On March 12, 2013,James Clapper, director of national intelligence, testified at an open congressional hearing. Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., asked him whether the National Security Agency collects “any type of data at all on millions or hundreds of millions of Americans.” His response: “No, sir, ... not wittingly.” Thanks to Edward Snowden, we know he was lying like a rug or, as he put it in an interview with Andrea Mitchell, the “least untruthful” he could be. Among the questions all this raises is, How come Andrea is in the middle of all this? We’re longtime friends; she’s a nice person. But she seems to have some shady associates. Also, why is Edward Snowden hiding out in Russia for exposing all their subterfuge and massive intrusions into our personal lives, while the perpetrators hold on to their jobs back here in D.C.

department at Temple University School of Medicine, who has written about violence against mental health professionals. The great majority of people with mental illness are not violent, noted Gabriel Nathan, spokesman for Montgomery County Emergency Service, a private psychiatric hospital outside Philadelphia. “Unfortunately, as in all populations, there are outliers,” he said, “which is why it is important to be aware and alert.” A Department of Justice survey found 55,882 workplace violent crimes against psychiatrists, social workers and other mental health professionals from 2005 to 2009, making them four times as likely to be assaulted on the job as workers generally, according to statistics compiled by the U.S. Department of Justice. Independent experts said the number of assaults is almost certainly far higher because violent incidents are grossly underreported. That reluctance often stems from a belief among mental health providers that violent outbursts come with the territory, or a fear they’ll be blamed for provoking the attack or an unwillingness to turn in someone they’re trying to help. And health care administrators often discourage reporting, experts said. “No one wants bad publicity that potentially comes from workers reporting that they suffered” an assault, said University of Maryland professor Jane Lipscomb, who researches occupational injuries in health care. “That’s a huge barrier.” In the latest case of violence, authorities said Richard Plotts, 49, shot and

killed his caseworker, 53-year-old Theresa Hunt, and wounded Silverman during a July 24 appointment at Mercy Fitzgerald Hospital outside Philadelphia. Silverman, who was grazed in the temple and thumb, crouched behind a chair, pulled out his own gun and fired several shots at Plotts, authorities said. Plotts has been charged with murder. The psychiatrist has not spoken publicly about the shooting, but prosecutors have said he regularly carried a weapon for protection. No one answered the door at Silverman’s home Friday. A picture evidently drawn by his child and posted on the front door depicted him with a bandaged head and thumb. “My dad is a hero,” it said. The exchange of gunfire occurred on the third floor of the hospital’s Wellness Center. Authorities have said there were no surveillance cameras in the doctor’s office or the waiting area outside nor does the center have metal detectors. A Mercy spokeswoman said the hospital, which has a policy prohibiting employees from carrying guns, is reviewing its security procedures. Mental health workers typically receive training on how to recognize when a patient might be about to become violent, and on verbal de-escalation techniques aimed at preventing it. Some hospitals also train staff in self-defense. Mental health professionals are often especially vulnerable to injury because their first impulse is to help, said Dr. Michael Privitera, a psychiatrist at the University of Rochester Medical Center in New York state. “There is this conflict in your thinking right away,” said Privitera, editor of a book on workplace violence in mental health facilities. “What you’re trained to do is to try to help the person. To make it click in your mind — that you are under threat now — it takes a while.” In rare cases, attacks are fatal. Twenty people in health care support occupations, a category that includes psychiatric workers, were killed on the job from 2005 to 2009, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Moroccan to swim from Alaska to Russia

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — A 27-year-old man is headed to the Bering Strait as part of his goal to be the first Moroccan to swim between every continent. Hassan Baraka plans to swim three miles from Little Diomede Island, Alaska, to Big Diomede Island, Russia, Thursday. However, he said during a practice swim in Anchorage Monday that the Russian government hadn’t yet given permission for him to come as hore. There is a backup plan if he doesn’t get the OK. Instead, he’ll swim to Little Diomede from the international dateline. Previous swims have taken him from Morocco to Spain and the Bosporus Strait, separating Europe from Asia. The swim is intended to bring awareness to coastal issues, and he wants to show the world that borders don’t have to divide people.

NOME (AP) — A Nome woman, initially given a citation for killing a musk ox out of season, said she acted to protect her dog. The citation issued to Diana Adams after the July 17 incident was later reduced to a written warning. Beth Ipsen, a spokeswoman for the Alaska State Troopers, said this was done after consultation between the wildlife troopers, local district attorney’s office and the state Department of Fish and Game. Ipsen said that marks the end of the case. On the morning of the incident, Adams found a herd of musk ox in Icy View and called 911 after trying to chase them away. She later found them in her backyard. “There was a musk ox off to my left. It was eating. I walked over; I yelled at it. It stopped, it looked at me and then it went back to eating,” Adams said. She put three slugs into her shotgun and a round of birdshot as warning shot, she said. She fired a warning shot and

kept yelling. She said when she saw one walk to her dog pen, and dip its head in the way she’s seen them do in the past before they attack, she shot it. Adams reported the incident and began processing the meat, which was donated to a local senior center. She said she previously had been told by the city, Fish and Game and a state trooper that it is permissible to kill a musk ox to protect dogs. But she said she was told after the shooting that this was not a case involving defense of life and property. “I was told that the pen itself did not constitute property under the defense of life and property regulations. I was told that a garden area or landscaping did not constitute protection of property. I didn’t read the regs that way,” she said. There should be greater clarity around what constitutes a defense of life and property case, she said. Days after the citation was issued, a dog in town was killed by a musk ox and a chain-link pen destroyed.

Around the World After truce, Israel and Hamas to negotiate new Gaza border deal, reconstruction GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip — The outlines of a solution for battered, blockaded Gaza are emerging after Tuesday’s tentative Israel-Hamas cease-fire: Norway is organizing a donor conference and Western-backed Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas aims to oversee rebuilding and reassert his authority in the territory, lost to Hamas in 2007. Forces loyal to Abbas would be deployed at Gaza’s crossings to encourage Israel and Egypt to lift the closure they imposed after the Hamas takeover. Indirect Israel-Hamas talks in Cairo are to tackle the details. The hope is that promises of a better life for Gazans will coax compromise and avert what had been looking like a fight to the finish. The gaps remain wide, especially between Israel and Hamas. Israel says it has inflicted a painful blow to Hamas’ military capabilities in the monthlong fighting and wants to make sure the group cannot re-arm if border restrictions are eased.

Residents huddle in dark, chilly bomb shelter as fighting closes in on major city DONETSK, Ukraine — For the people huddled in a dank and chilly bomb shelter Tuesday, the question of who was responsible was less important than the fact of their misery. Two journalists from The Associated Press joined Donetsk residents who spent the night in the shelter as fighting between government forces and separatist insurgents closed in on the outskirts of the largest rebel-held city. The rebels accuse Ukrainian forces of conducting a brutal bombing campaign against Donetsk; the government denies using artillery against residential neighborhoods. Either way, many Donetsk residents have been spending their nights underground in the hopes that they’ll be safer. The people wrapping themselves in blankets Tuesday said it mattered little who was responsible for the bombing. Some glumly read newspapers to pass the time, and one read a poem she wrote about her neighborhood’s ordeal. “Bombs and rockets; how much more can we take?” Galina Dudkina recited. “Empty streets, the cries of dogs, the meowing of cats that were left behind.”

Cuba rejects ‘covert’ US program that sought to groom new political activists WASHINGTON — The Cuban government on Tuesday called on Washington to halt hostile “covert” operations against it in the wake of the recent disclosure that an Obama administration program secretly sent young Latin Americans to Cuba on politically motivated missions.A top Cuban diplomatic official, Josefina Vidal, said an Associated Press investigation this week reveals that the U.S. government “has not desisted in its hostile and interventionist plans against Cuba, which seek to create destabilizing situations to provoke changes in our political order.” Vidal demanded the U.S. “cease, once and for all, all its subversive, illegal and covert actions against Cuba” in a statement emailed to The Associated Press. She noted the U.S. government has “shamelessly acknowledged” running the program.The project, funded and overseen by the U.S. Agency for International Development, deployed nearly a dozen young people from Latin America to Cuba to recruit political activists under the guise of health and civic projects. AP’s investigation found the operation put the foreigners in danger not long after an American contractor was arrested in the communist island nation for doing secretive work. — The Associated Press

Nation 13 hurt in NYC bus crash By VERENA DOBNIK Associated Press

NEW YORK — A traffic accident involving two doubledecker tour buses in the city’s Theater District on Tuesday afternoon sent shattered glass flying and injured 13 people, three of them seriously. None of the injuries was believed to be life-threatening, the Fire Department of New York said. The accident occurred around 47th Street and Seventh Avenue in Manhattan, an area of Times Square usually teeming with tourists near the TKTS discount Broadway tickets booth and the Hershey’s Chocolate World store. It shut down a stretch of Seventh Avenue. At least eight people, including several bus passengers, were treated at the scene, city officials said.

One of the buses crashed into a light pole, causing it to topple, witnesses said. “It sounded like something was falling from really high,” said Josh Price, visiting the city from Lafayette, New Jersey. The glass in the front of the bus was shattered, and glass was strewn on the pavement. Price said the scene was initially chaotic, with people running around trying to help. He said he saw one person on the ground holding his leg and bleeding. Rose Cantillon was visiting the city from Ireland and was nearby. “I was sitting on a bench, and I turned around and heard screaming, and I ran,” she said. The cause of the accident was under investigation. Telephone calls to the tour bus companies seeking comment were not immediately returned Tuesday.

Obama: $33B in commitments for Africa By JULIE PACE AP White House Correspondent

WASHINGTON — Seeking to strengthen America’s financial foothold in Africa, President Barack Obama announced $33 billion in commitments Tuesday aimed at shifting U.S. ties with Africa beyond humanitarian aid and toward more equal economic partnerships. The bulk of the commitments came from private-sector companies, including Coca-Cola and General Electric, underscoring Africa’s growing appeal to businesses. The continent is home to six of the world’s fastest-growing economies and a rapidly expanding middle class with increased spending power. Yet Obama noted that U.S. trade with the entire African continent is about the same as its trade ties with Brazil and that just about one percent of U.S. exports go to sub-Saharan Africa. “We’ve got to do better, much better,” he said during closing remarks at a daylong session that brought together U.S. and African politicians and business leaders. “I want Africans buying more American products and I want Americans buying more African products.” The U.S. is hardly alone in

seeing economic potential in Africa, with China, Europe and India moving aggressively to tap into Africa’s growing markets. China in particular is hungry for oil, coal and other resources and is eager to develop the roads, bridges and ports needed to pull them out of Africa. “We also realize we have some catching up to do,” said Michael Bloomberg, the former New York mayor and billionaire businessman who opened the summit Tuesday. “We are letting Europe and China go faster than the U.S.” Obama has sought to cast the U.S. as a better partner for African nations than China, arguing that his administration has a long-term interest in the continent’s success and is not simply seeking to extract resources for its own purposes. “The United States is determined to be a partner in Africa’s success,” he said. “We don’t look to Africa simply for its natural resources. We recognize Africa for its greatest resource, which is its people, their talents and their potential.” The business forum is part of an unprecedented three-day summit underway in Washington, with nearly 50 African heads of state in attendance.

Obama was hosting the leaders at a White House dinner Tuesday night. About 100 U.S. companies were represented at Tuesday’s conference. Vice President Joe Biden and Secretary of State John Kerry also addressed the attendees, as did former President Bill Clinton, who declared that the U.S. has “only barely scratched the surface” of Africa’s economic potential. In conjunction with the meeting, U.S. companies announced $14 billion in investments for Africa. Among them: a $5 billion investment from Coca-Cola to fund manufacturing lines and production equipment; $2 billion investment from GE by 2018; $200 million in investments across Africa by Marriott, and a $66 million commitment by IBM to provide technology services to Ghana’s

Fidelity Bank. The White House also touted another $12 billion in new commitments for Obama’s Power Africa initiative from the private sector, World Bank and the government of Sweden. Obama announced the Power Africa initiative last summer, setting a goal of expanding electricity access to at least 20 million new households and commercial entities. The president said that with the new financial commitments, he was boosting that goal to 60 million homes and businesses. Obama also announced $7 billion in new government financing to promote U.S. exports to and investments in Africa. That includes $3 billion in financing from the U.S. ExportImport Bank aimed at supporting American exports to Africa over the next two years.

US terrorism database doubled in recent years By EILEEN SULLIVAN Associated Press

WASHINGTON — A U.S. government database of known or suspected terrorists doubled in size in recent years, according to newly released government figures. The growth is the result of intelligence agencies submitting names more often after a near-miss attack in 2009. There were 1.1 million people in the database at the end of 2013, according to the National Counterterrorism Center, which maintains the information. About 550,000 people were listed in the database in March 2010. The Terrorist Identities Datamart Environment, or TIDE, is a huge, classified database of

people who are known terrorists, are suspected of having ties to terrorism or in some cases are related to or are associates of known or suspected terrorists. It feeds to smaller lists that restrict people’s abilities to travel on commercial airliners to or within the U.S. The government does not need evidence linking someone to terrorism in order for the person to be included in the database. This is among the reasons the database and subsequent terror watch lists have been criticized by privacy advocates. An online publication, The Intercept, on Tuesday reported that 40 percent of people on the terrorism watch list — which is a subset of names in the TIDE database — were not affiliated

with any recognized terrorist organization. The publication cited what it said were classified government documents from one year ago it obtained from a source in the intelligence community, raising the possibility that someone other than former NSA analyst Edward Snowden was improperly disclosing classified information. Snowden fled to Russia in June 2013, roughly two months before the date stamp on the newly disclosed documents. The Intercept was founded by journalists with whom Snowden shared classified materials last year. The growth of the Terrorist Identities Datamart Environment is a result of the government’s response to a failed at-

tempt to blow up a commercial airliner over Detroit on Christmas Day in 2009. The terror operative’s name was included in the database before the attack but not on a list that would have prevented him from boarding a U.S.-bound flight. Since then, the government lowered the standards for placing someone on the no-fly list, and intelligence agencies have become more diligent about submitting names to the TIDE database. Of the 1.1 million people in the TIDE database, 25,000 are U.S. citizens or legal permanent residents, the National Counterterrorism Center said. The database was created after the September 2001 terror attacks after it became clear that the government’s terror

Ex-cop charged with homicide By M.L. JOHNSON Associated Press

KENOSHA, Wis. — A former Wisconsin police officer killed a 19-year-old college student from Oregon during a choking game that went too far, hid her body in a suitcase she brought to their sex date and then kept her body in his refrigerator for months, according to a criminal complaint filed Tuesday. Steven Zelich, 52, of West Allis, was charged with firstdegree intentional homicide — the Wisconsin equivalent of murder — in the 2012 death of Jenny Gamez from Cottage Grove, Oregon. Zelich also is a suspect in the death of a Farmington, Minnesota, woman. The women’s bodies were found in June in suitcases left along a rural highway about an hour southwest of Milwaukee. According to court records and testimony, Zelich told investigators that he met the women online, killed them accidentally during dates for sex and hid their bodies until they began to smell. Then he dumped them on the roadside, where they were found by highway workers mowing grass. Kenosha County District Attorney Robert Zapf said he chose to charge Zelich with the most severe crime possible because he didn’t believe the deaths were accidents. “Killing two women over the span of 15 months under the

circumstances in which the defendant acknowledged, by gagging them with a ball gag in the mouth, ropes around the neck, hands tied behind their back, blindfold over their face. He may call that accidental. I call it murder,” Zapf said. Zelich’s attorney, Jonathan Smith, said Zapf would have to prove that his client meant to kill the women, and that could be more difficult if they died during consensual sex. He also noted no homicide charges have been filed yet in the Minnesota woman’s death. “The fact of the matter is, he’s charged with the death of one individual in Kenosha County, at this point, and that’s the death that we’re going to focus on,” Smith said. The punishment for conviction on a first-degree intentional homicide charge is life in prison. According to a criminal complaint filed Tuesday, Zelich met Gamez online and invited her to Wisconsin. He picked her up at the airport in Milwaukee, and they drove to hotel in Kenosha, where they spent several days together. Zelich told investigators they played a sexual game in which he would choke Gamez. On the last day, he lost control and choked Gamez until she died, the complaint said. Zelich told investigators he put Gamez’s body in her suitcase and took it back to his apartment in the Milwaukee suburb of West Allis. He kept

‘The fact of the matter is, he’s charged with the death of one individual in Kenosha County, at this point, and that’s the death that we’re going to focus on.’ — Jonathan Smith, Zelich’s attorney her body in his refrigerator until he brought the body of Laura Simonson, 37, home in November, the complaint said. He later put both bodies in suitcases that he kept in the trunk of his car until the weather warmed and they began to smell. Simonson died in similar circumstances. According to court documents, Zelich met her online and set up a date for sex at a Rochester, Minnesota, hotel. He told investigators he killed her there while playing the same choking game that led to Gamez’s death. Zapf said Simonson’s death proved crucial to breaking the case. Police quickly identified Zelich as a suspect in Simonson’s disappearance, and surveillance video from the hotel showed the two had checked in together but only he left. Investigators who interviewed Zelich in March took a DNA sample that later matched DNA

taken from ropes used to bind Gamez. West Allis police had searched Zelich’s apartment in January but did not find the bodies. Zapf said Tuesday that by March, the bodies were in the trunk of Zelich’s car. Zelich worked for the West Allis police department from February 1989 until his resignation in August 2001, following an internal investigation that found he stalked women while on duty and used his position to get access to their personal information. His resignation allowed him to avoid discipline and pass state background checks for a private security officer’s license. He was working as a licensed private security officer when he was arrested June 25, the same day detectives wearing hazmat suits removed large, brown bags of evidence and a refrigerator from his apartment.

watch list was ineffective. The watch list was once maintained in a Rolodex and in paper notebooks, according to edited photographs provided by the National Counterterrorism Center. Other terror watch lists derived from the TIDE database have also grown. As of November 2013, the Terrorist Screening Database consisted of 700,000 people, according to a government official. The official spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the sensitive numbers. Questions about the watch list surfaced in a recent civil lawsuit out of Virginia challenging the constitutionality of the no-fly list. The government disclosed that there were 1.5 million nominations to the

watch list over the last five years. Weeks later, a government official explained that a “nomination” meant new names as well as changes or updates to existing names on the list, and the figure in the court document should not have been interpreted to mean that 1.5 million people had been added to the watch list in the last five years, as The Associated Press reported July 18. In August 2013, there were more than 73,000 people affiliated with al-Qaida in Iraq on the terror watch list, according to a document marked “secret,” obtained by The Intercept. That al-Qaida affiliate represented the largest group of people associated with a known terrorist group on the watch list at the time.

Boy fatally stabbed By COREY WILLIAMS and PRIYA SRIDHAR Associated Press

KENTWOOD, Mich. — A 9-year-old boy was repeatedly stabbed in the back by a 12-year-old boy at a playground, then ran screaming to his western Michigan home and collapsed bleeding on his porch, witnesses and police said Tuesday. Michael Conner Verkerke died at a hospital shortly after the Monday evening attack in Kentwood, outside Grand Rapids. Witnesses said the 12-year-old boy went to a nearby home after the stabbing, called 911 and calmly turned himself in, then tried to flag down officers when they arrived. The 12-year-old pleaded not guilty to a murder charge in juvenile court Tuesday afternoon, according to his attorney. He was ordered held in a juvenile detention center until a hearing next week. Barb Poelman told The Associated Press she was sitting on her deck in the Pinebrook Village mobile home park when “we heard the kids run across the front ... screaming. He (Michael) ran with the kids that were with him.” She said the boy’s mother was distraught, pleading for help as she lay on the grass outside the family’s home. “She was screaming, ‘Where is the ambulance?’ while her boy was laying on the porch bleeding,” Poelman said. “The kids, I thought they were just playing.” Witnesses told investigators that four children were playing when one of them, for unknown reasons, pulled a knife and stabbed the boy. Glen Stacy, who lives nearby, told The Grand Rapids Press that the older boy approached him after the attack and asked to use his phone. He said the boy called 911 to report the attack and turn himself in.

Afghan soldier kills US general, wounds 15 By ROBERT BURNS and RAHIM FAIEZ and LOLITA C. BALDOR Associated Press

KABUL, Afghanistan — An American major general was shot to death Tuesday in one of the bloodiest insider attacks of the long Afghanistan war when a gunman dressed as an Afghan soldier turned on allied troops, wounding about 15 including a German general and two Afghan generals. The American officer was Maj. Gen. Harold Greene, a U.S. official said. An engineer by training, Greene was on his first deployment to a war zone and was involved in preparing Afghan forces for the time when U.S.-coalition troops leave at the end of this year. He was the deputy commanding general, Combined Security Transition Command-Afghanistan. Greene was the highestranked American officer killed in combat in the nation’s post9/11 wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and the highest-ranked officer killed in combat since

1970 in the Vietnam War. Five major generals were killed in Vietnam, the last Maj. Gen. John Albert Dillard whose helicopter was shot down. The attack at Marshal Fahim National Defense University underscored the tensions that persist as the U.S. combat role winds down in Afghanistan — and it wasn’t the only assault by an Afghan ally on coalition forces on Tuesday. In eastern Paktia province, an Afghan police guard exchanged fire with NATO troops near the governor’s office, provincial police said. The guard was killed in the gunfight. It wasn’t clear if the two incidents were linked, and police said they were investigating. Early indications suggested the Afghan gunman who killed the American general was inside a building and fired indiscriminately from a window at the people gathered outside, the U.S. official said. There was no indication that Greene was specifically targeted, said the official who identified Greene. The official was not authorized to speak publicly by name about the incident and

Mark Jacobson, a former NATO deputy civilian representative to Afghanistan and now a senior adviser at the private Truman National Security Project, said the threat of Afghan troops turning their guns of their American partners is a serious problem. “Any sort of insider attack, no matter who the victim is, is going to have an impact on the morale of soldiers,” Jacobson said, adding that when a higher-ranking officer is killed, “you might see a wider impact on morale.” Foreign aid workers, contractors, journalists and other civilians in Afghanistan are increasingly becoming targets of violence as the U.S.-led military coalition continues a withdrawal to be complete by the end of the year. Afghan President Hamid Karzai condemned Tuesday’s attack as “cowardly.”

Migrants clash in France as camp tensions soar BY ELAINE GANLEY Associated Press

PARIS — Migrants flowing into Europe in unprecedented numbers are causing a tense summer in France, as clashes break out among asylum-seekers in overcrowded camps and police fire tear gas to quell the chaos. Sudanese and Eritreans battled in the heat in France’s port city of Calais, frustrations rising as the Africans jockey for space while trying to sneak into Britain — the dream destination some 30 kilometers (20 miles) away. British police were on site in Calais trying to make sure they

don’t cross over. Their French counterparts fired tear gas Tuesday to break up the latest of three battles that left 51 injured, one seriously, the Calais prefecture said. Migrants fleeing poverty and war in Africa and the Middle East arrive in Calais with hopes of crossing the channel on a ferry or on trucks laden with cargo. Their numbers in the city at the edge of the English Channel have swelled to up to 1,300, overwhelming the city, aid agencies and police. Up to 40 extra riot police were brought into Calais to start duty Tuesday night, bringing the number of police officers to 600, the city said.

“There are migrants who arrive each day and each day some who succeed in getting to Britain,” said Deputy Mayor Philippe Mignonet, in charge of security. He refused to say how many migrants outsmart the scanners, CO2 detectors and other technology used on trucks and planted through the Channel Tunnel. “Calais has been taken hostage,” Mignonet said, blaming in part a Franco-British cooperation accord that he says puts the brunt of the burden on Calais. Like other officials, the deputy mayor complains that the British police presence effectively extends Britain’s border to France.

Most migrants in Calais start the European portion of their treacherous Mediterranean journeys in Italy, arriving on boats in the island of Lampedusa. Last year, total arrivals in Italy tallied 42,000 — which was already surpassed by spring.

With the year far from over, over 60,000 migrants have arrived on Italian shores. Overwhelmed, Italy is increasingly waiving European rules to fingerprint migrants, allowing them to move on. Those looking to go to Britain often

end up in Calais. Britain is seen by many migrants as Europe’s Shangri-La, with a more humane treatment of migrants than continental neighbors like France, where there are only 22,000 living units for some 60,000 asylum seekers.

Russian tourists stranded abroad as crisis deepens By LAURA MILLS Associated Press

MOSCOW — Last week, tens of thousands of Russians sunning themselves on Italian beaches and Turkish resorts received an unpleasant surprise: their tour companies had gone bust, stranding them and forcing them to pay double for a ticket to get home. The bankruptcy is the fifth among major Russian tour companies in less than two months — a sign that cracks are appearing in Russia’s economy after a months-long conflict in eastern Ukraine and an escalating stand-off with the West. It’s not just sanctioned Russian billionaires who are feeling the pinch now — uncertainty over the future has caused the currency to drop, hurting the average Russian’s ability to travel abroad and buy imported goods. And as new sanctions by the U.S. and the European Union start to bite, companies worry about a looming recession and a future without access to the West’s massive financial markets. “The more tense the geopolitical situation, the more expensive (foreign) currency will be,” said Konstantin Sonin, an economist at Moscow’s Higher School of Economics. “And with sanctions, it becomes harder for financial institutions to give credit, and there will be fewer business projects and

fewer goods being produced. Income and salaries drop and consumption doesn’t increase.” The U.S. and the EU have accused Russia, which annexed Ukraine’s Crimean Peninsula in March, of fomenting tensions in eastern Ukraine by supplying arms and expertise to a proMoscow insurgency, and have imposed asset freezes and loan bans on a score of individuals and companies. Tour operators, some of whom are among the nation’s oldest, say they have experienced an unprecedented slump in demand, which they blame on the bad political climate and the depreciation of the ruble, which has lost up to 10 percent against the dollar since January. The closure of one tour operator alone, Labirint, has left over 20,000 people abroad without a return ticket and affected another 40,000 who had already bought travel packages, tourism officials said. The low-cost airline Dobrolyot, which was sanctioned by the EU because it services the Black Sea region of Crimea annexed by Russia, has temporarily cancelled all flights. Companies also blamed the collapse in tourism on Moscow’s request that members of the security service, interior ministry, and military report where they travel to. The move, which authorities justified as an attempt to keep government employees out of any country

that has an extradition agreement with the U.S., has discouraged trips abroad among the several million people who work in those sectors. Until the recent troubles in Russia’s budget tourism industry, the direct casualties of Western sanctions had been few and far between — and rich. Gennady Timchenko, an oligarch with an estimated fortune of

$14.2 billion who as a longtime friend of President Vladimir Putin was hit with U.S. sanctions, said Sunday he could no longer fly his private jet because it was serviced by American company Gulfstream. Though other companies could in theory service the plane, he told Russian news agency ITAR TASS they would not have the right replacement parts for maintenance.

The collapse of major tourism companies could be the first sign that Russia, which is reeling from months of market volatility an estimated withdrawal by investors of $75 billion in funds, could be at the start of a lengthy recession. In July, the International Monetary Fund slashed its forecast for 2014 from 1.3 percent to 0.2 percent.

Any attempt by Moscow to fighting back against the sanctions is also likely to come at a high cost to Russian consumers and investors. Russia has banned a range of fruit and vegetable imports from Poland, in what Polish government officials said was retaliation for its support of the latest round of EU sanctions. Shares in Russia’s state airliner, Aeroflot, were trading down almost 6 percent Tuesday after leading business daily Vedomosti cited anonymous government officials as saying they were considering closing the airspace over Siberia to European flights heading to Asia. The move, allegedly in retaliation for the EU sanctions on Dobrolyot, would deprive Aeroflot of payments it receives from European airlines for the right to use Russian airspace. The government had no comment on the report, but Putin said Tuesday he had ordered officials to develop measures in response to Western sanctions. He did not elaborate. Though the Russian government is in relatively good shape financially, with little public debt, its budget will be strained this year as revenue drops from state-owned companies and new burdens of infrastructure and pensions come to bear in Crimea.

Spurs sign Hammon as 1st female NBA coach JON KRAWCZYNSKI AP Basketball Writer

As a 5-foot-6 point guard, decorated WNBA veteran Becky Hammon has never had the experience of shattering a backboard with a dunk. She’s busting through the glass ceiling instead. The San Antonio Spurs hired Hammon as an assistant coach on Tuesday, making her the first fulltime, paid female assistant on an NBA coaching staff. When Hammon retires from her 16-year WNBA career at the end of the San Antonio Stars’ season, she will immediately move to the staff of the defending NBA champions, working with the

revered Gregg Popovich on scouting, game-planning and the day-today grind of practice like no woman has ever done before. “Nothing in my life has really ever been easy. I’ve always been someone who did it uphill,” Hammon said. “I’m up for challenges. I’m up for being outside the box, making tough decisions and challenges. ... And I’m a little bit of an adrenaline junkie. Throw those all in there and this was the perfect challenge and opportunity.” That makes her fit right in with the Spurs, an organization with a reputation for bold decisions. Popovich and general manager R.C. Buford have long been at the forefront of the league’s international

influx and earlier this summer hired European coaching legend Ettore Messina as an assistant. During the 2001-02 season, Cleveland Cavaliers coach John Lucas brought Lisa Boyer into the team’s practices and some games. Boyer, now an assistant at South Carolina, was not paid by the Cavaliers and did not travel with the team, but did work with the players and coaches that season. “I very much look forward to the addition of Becky Hammon to our staff,” Popovich said in a statement released by the team. “Having observed her working with our team this past season, I’m confident her basketball IQ, work ethic and interpersonal skills will be a great ben-

efit to the Spurs.” But Popovich and Buford were not available in person and Hammon had the spotlight entirely to herself. “Congratulations to Becky on today’s announcement,” Boyer said in a statement. “It’s a great thing for her and for the NBA. I am still so thankful to John Lucas for giving me the opportunity to work with his NBA team during my time with the Cleveland Rockers. His staff and players welcomed me as a coach, and it was an incredible experience for me to spend that season with them.” Last season, Hammon attended Spurs practices, film sessions and sat behind the bench at home game after suffering a torn ACL that kept her from playing.

Reds take care of Indians in rout

Cincinnati victory overshadowed by strange 7th-inning play The Associated Press

CLEVELAND (AP) — Johnny Cueto threw his fourth complete game of the season, and the Cincinnati Reds, aided by a bizarre play in which a Cleveland runner was fooled by a second ball on the field, defeated the Indians 9-2 on Tuesday night. The Indians, trying to mount a comeback in the seventh, had a rally squelched after an errant warmup pitch from Cincinnati’s bullpen came on the field. Yan Gomes’ double cut the lead to 6-2 and moved David Murphy to third as a ball thrown by reliever Jumbo Diaz rolled behind second base. Murphy mistakenly thought that ball was live and edged off third. He was tagged out after the ball that was in play

was thrown to Santiago. Cincinnati broke a 10-game losing streak at Cleveland. Cueto (13-6), who hasn’t lost since July 2, allowed two runs in winning his fifth straight decision. Ramon Santiago hit a threerun homer in the second off Josh Tomlin (5-8) to break a 1-all tie for his first home run since Aug. 16 last season. METS 6, NATIONALS 1 WASHINGTON (AP) — Zack Wheeler allowed one run in 6 2-3 innings to win his fourth consecutive decision, and Daniel Murphy’s two-run single helped the New York Mets beat NL Eastleading Washington. Wheeler (7-8) gave up seven hits and allowed a run on a wild pitch. He is 4-0 with a 1.59 ERA in seven appearances since June

30.

In the second and third, Washington accumulated three hits and four walks off Wheeler but scored only once. The Mets scored a run in each of the first two innings off Gio Gonzalez (6-8), with David Wright and Wheeler delivering RBI singles. In all, Gonzalez was charged with four runs and six hits over six-plus innings.

MARLINS 6, PIRATES 3 PITTSBURGH (AP) — Adeiny Hechavarria had two hits and drove in a run during a decisive five-run rally in the eighth inning to help Miami beat Pittsburgh. Hechavarria’s RBI single made it 4-2 after Marcell Ozuna and Jarrod Saltalamacchia drew bases-loaded walks from Justin Wilson to force home the tying and go-ahead runs. Christian Yelich capped the inning with a

run-scoring double. Giancarlo Stanton and Garrett Jones also had two hits for Miami.

TIGERS 4, YANKEES 3, 12 innings NEW YORK (AP) — David See MLB, page A-11

MIAMI (AP) — The former clinic owner accused of selling performance-enhancing drugs to Alex Rodriguez has agreed to plead guilty in what prosecutors called a wide-ranging conspiracy to distribute steroids to both major league ballplayers and high school athletes. The charges filed Tuesday against former Biogenesis of America owner Anthony Bosch and six others marked one of the biggest salvos yet in a case that has dragged on for nearly two years. The case has sparked lawsuits, mudslinging and suspensions against numerous major leaguers, including Rodriguez. Also charged was Yuri Sucart, 52, a cousin of Rodriguez who the New York Yankees third baseman has said provided him with steroids from 2000 to 2003 when he played for the Texas Rangers. Sucart and the others are accused of acting as recruiters, setting up meetings between the athletes and Bosch, who introduced himself as “Dr. T,” authorities said. Professional athletes paid up to $12,000 a month for the drugs provided by Biogenesis, while high schoolers paid up to $600 a month. All the clients were promised that the substances would not be found through drug testing, prosecutors said. “He is not a doctor,” Mark R. Trouville, chief of the Miami Drug Enforcement Administration office, said of Bosch. “He is a drug dealer.” U.S. Attorney Wifredo A. Ferrer said Bosch did not have a medical license, making what happened all the more dangerous. “As with many drug cases, these defendants were motivated by one thing — by money,” Ferrer said. Major League Baseball was not part of the criminal investigation and declined comment. No athletes were charged nor named in court documents, and it is unclear how many may have been in-

volved. However, authorities said Bosch admitted to providing performance-enhancing drugs to 18 high schoolers. For now, Bosch has pleaded not guilty and his bond was set at $100,000. He faces up to 10 years in prison. “In terms of an agreement to cooperate and plead guilty, Bosch has agreed to do that,” Ferrer said. Michael McCann, director of the sports and entertainment law center at the University of New Hampshire School of Law, said it’s unlikely that the players involved in this scandal will face criminal charges, unless there’s any evidence that a player went beyond using drugs and into distributing them. “They could lose an endorsement contract because of a morals clause in their contract, but if that were to happen I think it would have already happened,” McCann said. “In terms of punishment from baseball, baseball has punished them.” The prosecution may have taken so long because investigators might have wanted to confirm the information they were getting from Bosch, even if he was cooperating, McCann said. “He’s not somebody with a great track record, there are reasons to doubt him in terms of his credibility,” he said. Joe Tacopina, a lawyer for Rodriguez, said the arrests Tuesday represent a degree of closure for Rodriguez and will enable him to focus on an eventual return to baseball. “It sort of reinforces the notion that Alex committed no crime, number one,” Tacopina said. “And number two, quite frankly, this really signified the beginning of the end of the whole Biogenesis saga and allows Alex to focus on the future going forward.” Rodriguez is currently serving a season-long suspension, the longest penalty in the sport’s history related to performance-enhancing drugs. He was the only one 14 players involved in the scandal to contest his penalty.

Bennett suspended from Bears camp, fined for scuffle BOURBONNAIS, Ill. (AP) — Tight end Martellus Bennett has been suspended indefinitely by the Bears after an altercation in practice the day before. General manager Phil Emery says the team “made a decision to fine and suspend Martellus Bennett for an undetermined length of time,” though he wouldn’t specify the amount of the fine. On Monday, Bennett was taken to the ground Monday with a grab to the shoulder by rookie cornerback Kyle Fuller. The play occurred during a full-pad scrimmage when players are not supposed to be taken to the ground. Bennett responded by getting up, grabbing the first-round draft pick and slamming him to the ground. Emery wouldn’t go into specifics about why the decision was made, saying only, “He was suspended for conduct detrimental to the team.”

Neither Emery nor coach Marc Trestman would characterize it as making an example of Bennett, who has been involved in several practice scrapes this training camp, and a few last year, as well. “I play hard, go hard every single day,” Bennett said Monday after practice. “I’m probably one of the most violent people on the field. That’s just my style of play. That’s how I play. I’m going to continue to play the way I play. That’s what I’m here for. “I’m not really here . everybody’s talking about friendships. Really, we’re all preparing for a championship. If we make friends along the way, that’s cool. But at the end of the day, I’m just trying to help the Bears win a championship and the do the job to the best of my ability.” When asked by reporters about the possibility of a fine, Benentt said, “I can afford it. I don’t see what he

can fine me for on that.” Bennett will not be with the team at camp until the suspension is lifted. “I’ll be talking with him today,” Trestman said. “We’ve got a plan and a process in place. We want to go through this process and when the time is right he’ll be back.” Fuller was not punished for the incident.

Modell grave marked

TOWSON, Md. (AP) — Police say charges have been filed against an Ohio man who is accused of urinating on the grave of former Baltimore Ravens owner Art Modell and posting a video of it on YouTube. Baltimore County Police said Tuesday that 61-year-old Paul S. Serbu of Franklin, Ohio, has been charged on a criminal summons with disorderly conduct in a cemetery, a misdemeanor. C

Serbu could face up to two years in jail and a $500 fine. Modell died in 2012 at age 87. He spent 43 years as an NFL owner, overseeing the Cleveland Browns from 1961 until he moved the team to Baltimore in 1996 to become the Ravens. Modell and his wife, Patricia, are buried at Druid Ridge Cemetery in Pikesville. A phone number for Serbu could not be found.

Giants still feeling good

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — Despite the sudden retirement of running back David Wilson, the New York Giants are confident that they have enough depth at the position. The 23-year-old Wilson announced his retirement on Monday because of neck and back injuries. “I feel for him,” said quarterback Eli Manning, whose brother Cooper had

his football career end because of a similar injury at the University of Mississippi. And his other older brother, Peyton, overcame spinal fusion surgery two years ago. “It’s a tough situation, but it could have been a lot worse. It’s a little bit scary, but he made the right decision by walking away. We’re all going to miss him, because he was going to be a big part of our offense.” And one Giants player, in particular, could relate to Wilson’s situation. Linebacker Jameel McClain, signed as a free agent from Baltimore in the offseason, suffered a similar injury to the one that ended Wilson’s career when McClain was with the Ravens in 2012. McClain suffered a bruised spinal cord and aggravated a long-standing case of spinal stenosis. At the time, McClain was told by Ravens’ doctors that he would never play football ever again.

its victory against San Francisco when video replay overturned a safe call at first base. With two outs in the ninth, Brewers closer Frankie Rodriguez walked Hunter Pence. Joe Panik then bounced to second baseman Rickie Weeks, who was shielded on the play by Pence before making the throw to first. Brewers managed Ron Roenicke challenged the safe call, and it was changed after a review of 3 minutes, 17 seconds.

PHILLIES 2, ASTROS 1, 15 innings PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Ryan Howard singled in the winning run with two outs in the bottom of the 15th inning to lift Philadelphia over Houston. The interleague matchup between teams with two of the four worst records in the majors lasted 5 hours, 5 minutes.

sion. “The State plans on appealing the Alaska superior court’s decision in the set-net ban initiative case (Alaska Fisheries Conservation Alliance v. State) once the final judgment is filed,” Mills wrote in an emailed statement. “Alaska’s Constitution requires sustainable and responsible allocation of our fish-

eries for the benefit of all Alaskans. The Alaska Constitution also prohibits use of the initiative process for appropriations, including appropriations of our resources. We believe the superior court erred in finding that the proposed ban on set-netting does not amount to an appropriation and look forward to presenting our arguments before the Alaska Supreme Court.” Unless a stay is granted, which requires a separate motion, the initiative process will continue moving forward, Mills

wrote in an email. Matt Singer, legal counsel for AFCA, said the case should not delay signature-collecting to get the proposed ban on the ballot. “I expect my client will proceed to collect signatures,” Singer said Aug. 5. AFCA has said it is targeting the 2016 ballot. The organization must collect about 30,000 signatures before the question can appear on the ballot.

Begich airs 1st TV ad against GOP’s Treadwell BECKY BOHRER Associated Press

JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) — U.S. Sen. Mark Begich’s campaign released a new TV ad Tuesday, seeking to draw a contrast between the Democrat and two of his Republican rivals on women’s issues as he looks to retain his seat in November. It is Begich’s first TV ad to include Republican Mead Treadwell, who is running against Dan Sullivan and Joe Miller for his party’s nomina-

She also said from time to time she will meet people who are not necessarily in a dire enough situation to receive aid, and she will take them off the list. “I try to be very discerning with this,” Meek said. “I want to use people’s money well.” Meek said the furthest she

tion in the Aug. 19 primary. The ad also singles out Sullivan, a former state attorney general and natural resources commissioner, who has been the presumed GOP front-runner and a favorite target in the last few months for the proBegich super PAC Put Alaska First. The TV spot, a companion to online ads and a new website from Begich, touches on the two Republican candidates’ anti-abortion positions and support for defunding Planned Parenthood. Begich supports a woman’s access to an abortion.

has delivered is Sterling, but people have gotten food supplies from the café as far out as Cooper Landing. She said one man who had been diagnosed with cancer and was commuting to Kenai for treatment was able to take a box back home with him. Meek said as long as she is able and as long as there are resources to do so, she will continue The Way Café. She also receives assistance from members of the First Baptist Church of Kenai with the deliveries. Meek said there will always be poor who need help. Meek said the best way to get in touch with The Way Café is to contact the First Baptist Church, or her-

packets, and once they are ready, the organization will have one year to collect the signatures. In the meantime, the issue will go to the state Supreme Court, where the record must first be established before briefs are filed or any activity occurs in the case. Singer said he expected the state Supreme Court to affirm Easter’s decision. Singer has said previously that the organization believed the initiative is not an appropriation, and that the public’s

right to weigh in on fish and wildlife management using the ballot initiative process should be interpreted broadly, with the appropriations limitation interpreted narrowly. The state’s decision was welcome news, however, for the groups who opposed the initiative. “We look forward to making our case to the Alaska Supreme Court,” Singer said Aug. 5. East Side setnetter Andy Hall said it was good news for him personally, and that he also

thought it was the right decision for the state. “You really don’t want to open the door to ballot box resource allocation,” Hall said Aug. 5. Hall said the initiative could be a disaster for the state, given its dependence on resource development and extraction. “We don’t want to compromise that,” he said.

time of year, which by definition is probably not one that (the board would) want,” Arness said. The general feeling of the board, Steve Atwater Arness said, is that if it moves forward with a search, it would be after Jan. 1, 2015. If that’s the decision, it will likely hire an interim. Arness said in discussing the opportunity with Atwater prior to the announcement, he encouraged him to take the position. “It was (a job) that he aspired to and will be very well-suited for,” Arness said. “And, yes, it puts (the district) in a bit of an awkward position, but we’ll figure it out.” As district superintendent, Atwater said he has gained experience that will help him in his new job. “I have a good understanding of how K-12 works … so that’s obviously a benefit,” he said. “The other benefit is that I have … very good relationships across the state with a lot of the important players, a lot of the important entities at the Legislative level and the Governor’s office and with other school districts so I think I can quickly gain trust those entities to affect change.” Atwater said working with dedicated educators, administrators and support staff in the district has been the highlight of leading KPBSD for the past five years. “We’re a great team of edu-

cators working very hard together,” he said. Improvements the district has made since Atwater became superintendent include: increased graduation rates, higher test scores and new curriculum. “But the other piece that I’m equally proud of is the behind the scenes piece that we’ve done,” he said. “We’ve made the district a more tightly aligned district in terms of standardizing some of the processes to make us stronger.” With KPBSD schools ranging in size and community culture, one of the biggest challenges as superintendent has been balancing that diversity. “We have a bit of everything so to properly have a district position to support each of those is a challenge and I think we do that very well,” he said. In his final months, Atwater said nothing new will be introduced, but the district will continue to work on new initiatives including the teacher evaluation system and emergency response training. While he is the district superintendent, Atwater said improvements made are due to the “good people” who work for the school district, the school board, students’ parents and stakeholders. “This is a great place to work,” he said. … “I’m leaving because I have an opportunity that I think will fit nicely with what’s next for me in my career.”

About leaving valuable things behind 1970’s August. Cooper Landing, Alaska

y husband at the time, Richard and I were going on a leisurely trip to Anchorage to do some school shopping for the 6 kids we had between us. We arranged a baby sitter, we packed for two days in Anchorage. We said goodbye to the kids, got in the car and smiled at the fact that we were just going to take our time through the mountains and stop for lunch at “Our Point of View” in Cooper Landing. This beautiful place was perched on the side of a mountain with a winding road that lead you to a wonderful large log restaurant. It had a huge fireplace in the middle of the room. It had great big windows over-looking Kenai Lake. The windows had wide ledges to put flowers and pretty things on. We took a table by the window and I parked my large tooled leather purse that we had bought in Mexico, on the ledge for safe keeping. (Remember those large leather purses with the long leather straps that you could put half a house in..then you slung it over your shoulder so you could pack all that stuff you did not need, around with you?) We had a wonderful meal and proceeded on our way to Anchorage. Just outside of Anchorage at Potters Marsh, a truck driver pulled up behind us and started blinking his lights at us. Well, in Alaska in those days, you pulled over to let them pass. We pulled over and he pulled in behind us!! The truck driver opened

I Grannie Annie

his door and jumped out with MY PURSE! I had not missed it!!!!! He too, was in the restaurant enjoying a meal and when my purse was discovered on the ledge, he offered to take it, follow us and give it back. He followed us about 75 miles through the mountains with its narrow and sometimes steep road, before he thought is was safe to pull us over. We offered him a reward and he refused it. I said thank you a thousand times! I had about $1,000 in cash in my purse and it was never touched! On our way back from Anchorage we stopped at “Our Point of View” and after a delightful meal we left a months worth of paid meals for the trucker driver that all the waitress’s knew.

In a Monday photo, Tony Timm, executive director of Centeral Iowa Shelter and Services, looks at a tomato plant in the garden with a new greenhouse at the shelter, in Des Moine.

Homeless shelter installs greenhouse DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — A homeless shelter in downtown Des Moines has installed a dome-shaped greenhouse that will enable the organization to grow vegetables year-round. Construction on the greenhouse at Central Iowa Shelter & Services finished over the weekend. It has been named Mulberry Farms and Food, the Des Moines Register reported (http:// dmreg.co/1nDbZ3G ). “The first part of it is growing the food,” said Tony Timm, the shelter’s executive director. “And then it’s teaching the clients how to harvest and prepare it.” The shelter will start training programs and allow people to attend classes in gardening, food production and sales. Officials hope those who live in the shelter’s housing will be able to use those skills to help find work in the restaurant or hospitality industries, or to develop some entrepreneurial skills to start their own business. Those being trained will be paid, which will allow them to develop a work history to show future employers. “It will give clients the chance to work within the community, get back on their feet and learn those skills,” Timm said. Inside of the greenhouse is a 3,000-gallon water pool which shelter officials say lettuce will likely be used to grow lettuce. Timm said he hopes other vegetables can be planted in the greenhouse by the end of the summer. Large, raised planters were installed last summer next to the greenhouse. They hold tomatoes, peppers and carrots, which are used in the shelter’s kitchen. Robert Garner, 54, said he enjoyed he enjoyed having access to fresh vegetables and liked having the gardens around.

f you’re into gardening, your yard is probably burgeoning with fresh herbs. And, if you don’t garden, supermarkets make fresh herbs available precut and packaged, or packed in soil-filled pots. There’s hardly a dish that can’t be enhanced with fresh herbs, whether the herb is placed on, in, or literally alongside food as nothing more than garnish. The herbs, or combinations of herbs, that add excitement and complex flavor to our foods is endless, and each of us has a preference. It can, however, be challenging to include fresh herbs on dishes that are roasted unless they are in some way protected from high cooking temperatures. And, in other instances, delicate herbs are best enjoyed in their raw state. The recipes today address both those issues, with a roasted chicken dish that is prepared with herbs that have been placed beneath the skin of chicken and for herb butter, created for use on grilled fresh corn. In addition, there’s a recipe for salad

dressing here, using fresh tarragon. Fresh herbs rock, but if you must substitute some of the fresh herbs with dried, the ratio is three parts fresh to one part dried. I’m often asked by people who dry their own herbs how long they will keep. The good news is that if herbs are kept completely dry and stored in a cool place, they won’t spoil – but they will definitely lose their vibrant color and strength after a year, or so. To test if dried herbs are still good to use, crumble some in your hand. If
