Budget headed to governor’s desk PFD payout amount remains unsettled By Alex McCarthy Juneau Empire
When Darren Henry and his wife, Jessica, considered purchasing Trinity Greenhouse from the longtime owners, they had no background in horticulture, besides a love of personal gardening and keeping a well-manicured lawn. Now, in the greenhouse’s 43rd year in business and the Henrys’ second season as the owners, they’re continuing to grow the business. Darren Henry grew up on the peninsula and was family friends with the previous greenhouse owners. In 2016, they brought him on as a full-time employee to learn the ropes. “It was to make sure I understood what I was getting myself into, because it’s a big job and a handful to run this business,” he said. “We decided it was a

CLARION The Alaska Legislature approved the smallest state budget in more than a decade, and there’s still a chance that the governor could ask lawmakers to take more from it. By a unanimous vote of the Alaska Senate on Monday, the Legislature’s budget went to Gov. Mike Dunleavy’s desk for final approval. Sen. Bert Stedman, R-Sitka, told media members Monday that he expects the governor will sign off on the budget as a whole, but could use his veto power to reject portions of the budget. The state must finalize a budget by the end of the fiscal year June 30 to avoid a government shutdown July 1. The $4.4 billion budget is $190 million lower than last year’s budget, accord-

ing to a release from the Senate Majority. That’s about a billion dollars less than Dunleavy’s proposed cuts.
Among the major cuts is a sizable one to the Alaska Marine Highway System — about a $40 million reduction that
will cut service down this winter. The budget also cuts more than $100 million from the Department See DESK, page A2

Heightened bacteria levels found at Kenai Beach of Environmental Conservation issued a warning Thursday about Kenai North Beach, The Anchorage Daily News reported Saturday. Samples taken June 4 showed elevated levels of

Kenai Fjords celebrates renovated visitor center By KAT SORENSEN Peninsula Clarion
Encompassing more than 600,000 acres, the Kenai Fjords National Park covers a lot of land, ice and sea. The latest renovations to the park’s visitor center near the Seward harbor promises to bring the beauty of the vast park closer to home. “The park is such a dynamic place with wildlife, glaciers, landscapes and a deep cultural story,” said Kenai Fjords National Park Chief of Interpretation and Education Shauna Potocky. “There is a lot to be amazed and inspired by.”

ANCHORAGE — A bear attacked and injured a hunter near Galena. The hunter and was flown to a hospital by the Alaska Air National Guard. The guard in a release says soldiers responded Monday at the request of Alaska State Troopers. The Rescue Coordination Center dispatched a helicopter and fixedwing HC-130 aircraft that carried a Guardian Angel rescue team. Alaska Rescue Coordination Center deputy director Maj. Andrew Williams says the team parachuted from the HC130 and hiked to the injured person. Williams says blood and plasma provided by Providence Alaska Medical Center was critical to the rescue. The victim was flown to Galena, Joint Base Elmendorf Richardson, and finally, Providence Hospital.
GLENNALLEN — A 35-year-old Alaska Army National Guard soldier from Fort Greely died when he fell into the Copper River while dipnetting for salmon. Alaska State Troopers say the body of Sgt. 1st Class Russell Hepler was recovered. Alaska Army National Guard officials say Hepler was a full-time soldier in the 49th Missile Defense Battalion’s military police company at Fort Greely. Troopers in Glennallen took a call shortly before 1 a.m. Saturday that Hepler had fallen into the river, known for its fast current, cold water and silty composition. The river annually attracts hundreds of fishermen seeking sockeye and king salmon with longhandle dipnets. Hepler’s body was recovered by fishermen in a boat. Before joining the Alaska Army National Guard, Hepler was in the Florida Army National Guard from 2001 to 2004.

Lightning from two days of thunderstorms last week sparked eight fires on the Kenai Peninsula, with six of them active on Kenai National Wildlife Refuge lands, a Monday press release from the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge, said. The Coal Creek Fire is burning northwest of Tustumena Lake and is nearly 14 acres in size. It started burning Friday where the Funny River burn is. The release said the fire is 40% contained with progress being made on the ground. The Swan Lake Fire moved south on Sunday, growing to 1,746 acres in size, and is being closely monitored. It’s burning near the 2017 East Fork Fire. The East Fork Fire scar, Sterling Fuel Break and natural barriers provide numerous fuel breaks between the fire and local communities and the Sterling Highway, the press release said. Smoke can be expected and visible from eastern Soldotna, Sterling and possibly the Anchorage hillsides. Use caution when driving on affected roads, especially in the vicinity of Mile 68 and eastward on the Sterling Highway. The Kenai Peninsula Borough is collaborating with the Division of Forestry and the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge during the wildfire season to support structural response, evacuation and reentry, communications and public information coordination, according to a Monday press release from the borough. Residents can find the most updated information at kpboem.com, akfireinfo.com and on the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge Facebook page.

Police charge 3 additional people in woman’s killing ANCHORAGE (AP) — Police have arrested and charged three additional people in the killing of an Anchorage woman, authorities said. Caleb Leyland, 19, and two juveniles have been charged in connection with the June 2 death of 19-year-old Cynthia Hoffman, The Anchorage Daily News reported Sunday. Denali Brehmer, 18, and 16-year-old Kayden McIntosh were previously charged with first-degree murder, police said. Leyland, who told police he provided Brehmer and McIntosh with a vehicle, faces charges of firstdegree murder and first-degree conspiracy to commit murder, authorities said.
Leyland also told officers that he, McIntosh, Brehmer and the male and female juveniles agreed to kill Hoffman near Thunderbird Falls in the Chugiak area, 27 miles northeast of Anchorage. The male juvenile said McIntosh and Brehmer came to his house June 2 and told him they “had shot Hoffman and killed her,” police said. Investigators found Hoffman’s body June 4 in the Eklutna River where Brehmer told authorities the killing occurred after they told Hoffman they were going for a hike. Hoffman’s feet were duct taped together, police records said. See CHARGE, page A3

of Health and Social Services, Stedman said on the floor Monday. Stedman said that Dunleavy might cut more from the Department of Health and Social Services budget, but was going to wait and see what eventually does come from the governor. He joked that he hoped the governor might throw in a little extra money for ferries. “I’d like him to add to the marine highway, but he can’t add,” Stedman said. Senate dodges vote on dividend amount The budget does not include an Alaska Permanent Fund dividend, which has been the biggest sticking point of the session for legislators. Last week, the Senate was just one vote short of approving a $3,000 PFD in the budget. Ten senators voted for the full dividend, when 11 votes were needed. Sen. Mike Shower, RWasilla, would have been that 11th vote if he had been there. But Shower, who also works as a pilot for FedEx, had used up all of his personal leave from work to stay in Juneau for the 121-day session, he said in an interview Monday. He said he was able to extend his leave even more through part of special session, but said his job might have been in jeopardy if he had taken more time off. So he was gone for a few days last week, and the timing worked out where one of those days was for a $3,000 dividend.

The samples taken at Kenai North Beach contained 139 units per 100 millilitres of enterococci bacteria, almost four times higher than what is considered safe for direct contact, officials said. The safe threshold for fish and shellfish harvesting for raw consumption is no
more than 14 units per millilitre. Seafood harvested from the area should be rinsed with clean water and cooked to a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit, officials said. Bacteria levels were normal in water samples
taken from nearby South Kenai Beach, Warren Ames Bridge and Kenai River Gull Rookeries 1 and 2, officials said. The environmental conservation agency tests the water at those locations weekly from May through September, officials said.
“It was almost soulcrushing, to be honest,” Shower said Monday. Shower acknowledged that the Alaska House — in which the House Majority has repeatedly proposed having a smaller dividend — probably wouldn’t have agreed with a $3,000 dividend, but he was still “beyond frustrated” to have missed a chance to vote for it. Shower was in attendance Monday, and voted in favor of having a revote on the bill (Senate Bill 1002) that included a $3,000 dividend. The vote failed, though, as the Senate was split 10-10. Eleven votes were needed. Sen. Elvi Gray-Jackson, D-Anchorage, voted in favor of SB 1002 last week. During Monday’s vote, however, Gray-Jackson voted against reconsidering the bill. Gray-Jackson
declined an interview request following the floor session. What’s next? Stedman said it’s “very, very, very, very unlikely” that the Legislature reaches an agreement on the PFD by the end of this special session, which ends Friday. Shower agreed, saying there just isn’t enough time to draft a new bill, introduce it and have it pass both the House and Senate by Friday. Sen. Natasha von Imhof, co-chair of the Senate Finance Committee, told reporters Monday that, “I think it’s very important to address the permanent fund outside the operating budget, which I think Sen. Stedman was successfully able to do.” The Alaska House introduced a resolution this week to form a working group that would examine
what to do with the permanent fund in the long term. After much debate — and by an 11-9 margin — the Senate agreed to form the working group, which will include four members from each body to meet and then make recommendations to the Legislature on how to proceed with a formula or solution to provide a dividend while still maintaining government services. There is not a timeline on when the group will meet or introduce recommendations. The House has not yet named its members, but Senate President Cathy Giessel appointed Sens. Stedman, Click Bishop, Shelley Hughes and Donny Olson. When the Senate voted on whether to propose a $3,000 dividend, Bishop and Stedman voted no, while Hughes and Olson voted yes.

the Chugiak area. According to their accounts, Hoffman started panicking after she was bound. At that point, Brehmer originally told detectives, McIntosh took the gun from her hand and shot Hoffman in the head with it before pushing the 19-year-old’s body into
the Eklutna River. Hoffman’s father, Timothy, told the Daily News on Saturday that his daughter met Brehmer when they were both students at Service High School. Cynthia Hoffman had described Brehmer as her “best friend,” he said. He said a developmen-
tal disability that caused his daughter to operate intellectually at about a seventh-grade level had made her vulnerable. “Her disability just made her want to have friends,” Timothy Hoffman said. “That’s all she wanted, was just to be her friend.”
munity to come visit and see the changes. For visitors, this is a great way to learn about the park. If they don’t make it to Exit Glacier or don’t have a chance to go to the outer coast, we’ve tried to bring those resources to them in the visitor’s center.” The exhibits in the renovated visitor’s center cover the spectrum of the park, from a life-size humpback whale statue in front of the building to a chance to ex-
perience the smells of Kenai Fjords National Park. “We have exhibits here that engage the senses, the sights and the sounds of Kenai Fjords,” said Park Ranger Griffin Plush during a tour of the new facilities Saturday. “They transport people out into the fjordal part of the park … cover the early history of Kenai Fjords and there are different notes and opportunities to start dialogues, start conversations to really
bring people into the park and engage more.” The visitor center also highlights the cultural history of the land. There were representatives from multiple Alaska Native villages and corporations with ancestral ties to the area at the grand opening. “What’s being done by the park is amazing and it gives us peace of mind to see all that can come and enjoy while having the land be protected, watched over and taken care of for future
generations. Our tradition, our culture, everything is protected now,” said First Chief of Nanwalek Village John Kvasnikoff during the ceremony. Now that the visitor center is renovated and open, Potocky said she hopes it will become a resource for the community, visitors and students for years to come. The theater, which shows a movie detailing the park throughout the summer, will be converted into a distance educa-
tion space in the off season and can be converted into a studio space. “One of my goals is to start hosting First Fridays in the theater… so we’re looking at that for next year,” Potocky said. “I also hope that eventually we can open for special events during the winter to support the community.” The Kenai Fjords National Park Visitor Center is free and open to the public daily during the summer from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.
week during the peak growing season. The two have also ramped up social media presence — increasing web traffic, Darren said. “It gives customers the option to shop at a local business and not a big box store,” he said.
The greenhouse sells an abundance of flowers, including more than 65 varieties of roses, vegetable plants, herbs, shrubs, trees and flower baskets. Employees make the potting soil onsite — using a special machine that mixes together the raw ingredients. Henry said almost all of the greenhouses plants are grown from seed. Residents looking for rhubarb or berry plants can also find them at Trinity. The greenhouses’ bestselling items are their flower baskets. Henry said Trinity starts taking reservations for the baskets in March. He said some residents have been reserving the baskets for more than 10 years. “We really encourage people to call us in early March,” he said. “I only have so many hooks to grow on.”
Despite their peak season being in spring and early summer, Trinity Greenhouse is a year-round operation. Henry said everything gets buttoned down in November, though plant work is happening all year and one employee is kept on to maintain the greenhouse. “This is our peak season. This is when people think about us, but it’s a yearround operation,” he said. “We got to take care of all that stock, ordering for the next season, going to trade shows — there’s no off season for us.” During peak season, in the spring and summer months, the greenhouse employs 18 people, mostly young people and high school students, Darren said. “I think its important people know we’re a local business and we employ
a lot of people here in the community,” he said. “It’s a super fun and wholesome work environment and you get to work with plants.” Darren worked in publishing and distributing for 20 years before working at Trinity. Jessica, who also owns Shorty’s Coffee in Kenai, previously worked in law enforcement. They’re enjoying the change of pace that comes with running the greenhouse. “I’d much rather be dealing with the public here than working at the DMV, where everyone is grumpy and no one wants to be there,” he said. “When people walk into Trinity, they’re happy to be here. They want to be here. It’s a place they look forward to coming. We’re committed to making this a destination for people.” Jessica encouraged residents to watch their Facebook
and Instagram posts to see what’s new and available at the greenhouse. The greenhouse stays open to the public until the end of September, and hours and days of operation will be reduced as the summer goes on. In June the greenhouse is open seven days a week, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Saturday and noon to 5 p.m. on Sundays. Even when the greenhouse closes its doors in the winter, community members who might need something, should give the office a call. “If somebody needs potting soil, or needs help with a plant or needs some aloe — I get a lot of calls in the winter for aloe vera, people burning themselves cooking or that kind of thing. If somebody needs something just call the office and if we can help them, we will take care of you,” Darren said.

A welcome, if delayed, relief package for Texas Can you hear us now?
The Trump administration’s outrageous delays in making available more than $12 billion in storm-recovery funds — about $4.3 billion of the total is for Texas — have finally been dealt with. The House on Monday approved a Senate bill that sets a 90-day countdown for the administration to formally invite states such as Texas to submit spending plans for the money. That will kick-start the release of the funds. That means flood recovery funds approved by Congress just months after Hurricane Harvey hit in 2017 will get to Texas in 2020. That’s astoundingly tardy, and yet even getting that much grease in the gears took — quite literally — an act of Congress. When Texas Land Commissioner George P. Bush began raising hell with the administration over the delays early this year, folks at Housing and Urban Development, which administers the funds, and the Office of Management of Budget, which approves all new rules, seemed anything but fazed. At that time, aides to both Sen. Ted Cruz and Sen. John Cornyn told the editorial board that they had also been hammering at the administration to add a sense of urgency. None of that got far. Instead, what worked was individual members of Congress decided to cross party lines and introduce legislation that would force the administration’s hand. Cornyn teamed with Sen. Joe Manchin, the West Virginia Democrat, on a bill to require the disbursement of the funds. A similar bill was authored in the House by a gaggle of members of Congress, including Rep. Lizzie Fletcher, D-Houston. Neither bill passed, but Cornyn and others managed to include its basic provisions in a larger disaster funding bill that did. Now all that’s required is President Donald Trump’s signature, which he’s expected to give. Congratulations to Cornyn, Manchin and the House members who made it so. Perhaps there’s a lesson about dealing with the president: Talk is cheap, but legislation can produce results. As we await the presidential signature, we note that many questions have been left unanswered. Why was the administration so slow? HUD officials told the editorial board earlier this year that because the funds were being spent in new ways — on preventing future flood damage rather than repairing damage from previous floods — new rules were needed. Congress was right to change the focus of these funds, but HUD should never have allowed the simple change to slow things down so profoundly. Others worried that the real reason for the delays flowed from the president’s bitter reaction to Puerto Rico and the recovery it so badly needs in the wake of Hurricane Maria. Absent proof, we’ll pray that the latter feud played no role in the delays. And either way, the intricacies of Team Trump’s machinations can be the subject for a debate another day. The welcome news this week is that Congress intervened in a way that should pay dividends for Texas, and fairly soon. — The Houston Chronicle, June 4

Village policing plan bad idea for rural Alaska A laska V oices R ichard L. B urton I followed the recent visit to Alaska by U.S. Attorney General William Barr with great interest but was disappointed that the main thing that seemed to come out of his meetings in Alaska was for Barr to declare an “emergency” in rural Alaska law enforcement. This puts Alaska’s rural villages on a similar footing as the border with Mexico. In the case of the southern border, President Donald Trump declared an emergency, to divert money to build a wall, even if Congress does not approve. In Alaska, I recently learned of a plan by Gov. Mike Dunleavy, in effect, to declare an emergency and, with little or no notice to the Alaska Legislature, to pave the way for a federal takeover of rural law enforcement and to militarize village policing. In both cases, the chief executive officer came up with a bad idea that is not going to work, rather than developing a meaningful plan for effectively dealing with the situation over the long term. The governor’s plan is to patrol Alaska villages with the Alaska State Defense Force. The ASDF, also known as the state militia, is a quasi-military organization made up of volunteers with no police training, who must follow federal
rules and regulations designed for the National Guard. The governor has apparently now given orders to his staff to draft operational plans for the militia to begin police duty in remote villages that were mentioned during Barr’s visit. Normally, police officers in Alaska are required to be certified by the Alaska Police Standards Council, as having proper training and qualifications. In this instance, the Commissioner of Public Safety will instead give members of the militia authority as special police officers. This is allowed under state law in AS 18.65.010, but only if the commissioner determines that the special officers have adequate police training. I don’t believe any such determination has been made or could be made. There has been a lot of effort put into addressing rural public safety by many people over many years. The best idea to date has been the Village Public Safety Officer. The VPSO program puts trained public safety officers in remote villages, who work closely with, and under the oversight of, Alaska State Troopers. VPSOs are often village residents with knowledge of, and support of, the community. But the VPSO program has suffered from lack of state funding, and no federal funding at all. Both the State of Alaska and the federal government have a moral, and in my opinion legal, responsibility for public safety in rural villages. The federal government has designated over 200 tribes in Alaska, mostly in rural villages, and the feds should participate more in fund-
ing the Department of Public Safety to enhance the ability of the Alaska State Troopers to provide adequate staffing, training and oversight to the VPSO program. Instead of declaring emergencies, as a first step we need a group tasked to assess the situation and do a thorough problem analysis and review of the current statutes and regulations. This should include the Department of Interior (Bureau of Indian Affairs), Department of Justice (FBI and U.S. attorneys), an appropriate State of Alaska representatives, and a cross section of rural communities and governments. I would invite Congress (Sen. Lisa Murkowski’s office, for example), and the Alaska Legislature. Public safety should not be a partisan issue. Let’s show Washington, D.C., that in Alaska we can get things done on a bipartisan basis, for the good of all. I have 40 years of experience with law enforcement in Alaska, even going back before Alaska became a state. I can tell you the governor’s plan encouraging a federal takeover of village policing is simply a bad idea for rural Alaska. During all of this time I never add any contact from the Bureau of Indian Affairs. Why? At one time the FBI stated they were going to start investigating crime in the villages but that never came to pass. Richard L. Burton was the commissioner of the State of Alaska Department of Public Safety from 1991-1995, and from 1975-1979. He resides in Ketchikan.

House Dems make deal to see Mueller files on Trump By MARY CLARE JALONICK and LISA MASCARO Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The House expects to receive the first files of underlying evidence from Robert Mueller’s report soon, after a sudden shift by the Justice Department as Democrats weigh impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump. It’s unclear if the deal, announced just moments before the start of a Judiciary Committee hearing with Watergate star witness John Dean, will ultimately be enough for Democrats who have called for the full, unredacted report and underlying documentation from the special counsel’s work. But it signaled the first real breakthrough in the standoff over the report and came at the start of a week of ramped-up action by the House in the Trump-Russia probe. Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., the chairman of the committee, said the Justice Department will provide some of Mueller’s “most important files” and all members of the committee will be able to view them. He said the files will include those used to assess whether Trump obstructed justice. In response to the agreement, Nadler said the panel will not vote to hold Attorney General William Barr in criminal contempt, for now. But the House will still vote on a resolution Tuesday that would empower the committee to file a civil lawsuit for the materials, if Democrats decide to do so. That was the expected outcome even before the deal, as Democrats
have shifted their strategy toward lawsuits and away from criminal contempt. Criminal contempt would be referred to the Justice Department, where it would certainly be rejected. And Democrats have been encouraged by some early wins in court as Trump has broadly fought congressional oversight. Nadler said in his statement that he would give the Justice Department some time to comply. “If the Department proceeds in good faith and we are able to obtain everything that we need, then there will be no need to take further steps,” Nadler said in a statement. “If important information is held back, then we will have no choice but to enforce our subpoena in court and consider other remedies.” The sudden turn of events came ahead of a pivotal week for House Democrats, who are torn over whether to move forward with impeachment proceedings and searching for ways to focus public attention on Trump’s actions. Dean, a White House counsel under Richard Nixon who helped bring down his presidency, testified Monday that Mueller has provided Congress with a “road map” for investigating Trump. He said he saw parallels between Mueller’s findings regarding Trump and those of congressional investigators looking into Nixon’s administration decades ago. He pointed to the way the presidents used their pardon power in an attempt to influence witness testimony, and their efforts to seize control of the investigation and
direct the efforts of prosecutors. Trump, apparently watching the televised hearing, tweeted, “Can’t believe they are bringing in John Dean, the disgraced Nixon White House Counsel.” He added his oft-repeated claim, “No Collusion - No Obstruction!” At times, Dean, who said he last appeared before Congress in 1974, was forced to fend off attacks from committee Republicans. The top Republican on the committee, Rep. Doug Collins of Georgia, dismissed Dean as a “godfather” figure. Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, criticized Dean’s work and noted he pleaded guilty after Watergate. And Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida, a Trump ally, derided his appearance as a Capitol Hill version of “That ’70s Show.” In addition to Dean, two former U.S. attorneys who served during the Obama administration, Barbara McQuade and Joyce Vance, also testified before the committee. Both have become regulars on cable news shows, analyzing developments in the Mueller investigation and offering criticism on Twitter of the president’s conduct. The Justice Department said it was pleased the House committee had “agreed to set aside its contempt resolution and is returning to the traditional accommodation process.” The department “remains committed to appropriately accommodating Congress’s legitimate interests related to the Special Counsel’s Investigation and will continue to do so provided the previously voted-upon resolution does not advance,” spokesperson Kerri Kupec said in a statement.

Nation/World Helicopter crashes on roof of NYC skyscraper By JIM MUSTIAN Associated Press
NEW YORK — A helicopter crash-landed on the roof of a rain-shrouded midtown Manhattan skyscraper Monday, killing the pilot and briefly triggering memories of 9/11, even though it appeared to be an accident unrelated to terrorism. The crash near Times Square and Trump Tower shook the 750-foot-tall AXA Equitable building and forced office workers to flee on elevators and down stairs. Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who spoke to reporters at the scene, said the impact caused a fire, but it was under control. The pilot was believed to be the only one aboard, and there were no other reports of injuries, authorities said. It was not immediately clear what caused the crash, or why the Agusta A109E was flying in tightly controlled airspace in midtown Manhattan. A flight restriction in effect since President Donald Trump took office bans aircraft from flying below 3,000 feet within a 1-mile radius of Trump Tower, which is less

than a half-mile from the crash site. The crash happened around 2 p.m., when clouds obscured the roof of the building. It occurred close to both Rockefeller Center and Times Square and sent rescue vehicles swarming to the building. The response immediately evoked memories of the Sept. 11 attacks. “If you’re a New Yorker, you have a level of PTSD, right, from 9/11. And I remember that morning all too well. So as soon as you hear an aircraft hit a building, I think my mind goes where every New Yorker’s mind goes,” Cuomo said. Videos posted by on-
lookers showed emergency vehicles in the street, but no obvious damage to the skyscraper. Pedro Rodriguez, a pastry line cook at Le Bernardin, a well-known restaurant in the building, said workers got an announcement telling everyone to exit, and he later heard from people around him that there was a fire on the roof. The evacuation was not chaotic, Rodriguez said, but he was rattled because he immediately thought of the Sept. 11 attacks. “It’s scary when something like this happens,” he said. Alex Jacobs was work-
ing on the seventh floor when he heard bells and an announcement to evacuate. He and his colleagues — who had not heard or felt an impact — used stairs to a fire exit. “It’s really unfortunate. I Just hope everyone’s OK,” he said. Trump tweeted from Washington that he had been briefed on the crash and that his administration was ready to help if needed. Cuomo’s office said the president and governor had spoken. The Federal Aviation Administration said the National Transportation Safety Board would oversee an investigation. Lance Koonce, a lawyer who works a block south, heard a loud sound he thought could be a lowflying helicopter. From his 21st-story window, he looked up and saw smoke. “I couldn’t tell if the smoke preceded the helicopter coming over, or if it was from the helicopter crashing into the building,” he said. He was not worried for his own safety, but was thinking about the safety of the people in the helicopter and those on the street below.
Dallas crane collapse victim identified as 29-year-old woman By JAKE BLEIBERG and CLARICE SILBER Associated Press
DALLAS — Authorities have identified 29-year-old Kiersten Symone Smith as the woman who was killed when a crane fell on a Dallas apartment building Sunday amid severe thunderstorms that also uprooted mature trees and left thousands without power across the city. Smith was pronounced dead at a hospital, according to the Dallas County Medical Examiners’ office, after the construction crane smashed into a five-story building near downtown destroying peoples’ apartments and reducing parts of an adjacent parking garage to a pile of concrete and mangled cars. The cause of Smith’s death has not been determined. Dallas Fire-Rescue spokesman Jason Evans could not provide an update on the condition of the five people injured in the collapse. Smith was a resident of the apartment building, her sister, Toni Smith, told The Associated Press in a brief interview Monday. Toni
Smith referred other questions to attorney Jonathan Cox, who said he could not immediately provide answers but that the family intends to issue a statement. The crane fell around 2 p.m. as storms ripped across parts of Oklahoma and Texas, bringing high winds, heavy rain and hail that flooded streets and caused power outages. Wind gusts up to 71 mph were measured at Dallas Love Field airport, said National Weather Service meteorologist Patricia Sanchez. Heavy rain and winds up to 80 mph also cut through the Austin area, blowing down tree branches and gas station canopies, said meteorologist Bob Fogarty. Sanchez said a crew was going out Monday to determine the intensity of a reported tornado that damaged houses in Copperas Cove, located about 75 miles north of Austin. A city fire official said about 200 homes were damaged and three of those are uninhabitable. “The sun was out, and then all of a sudden a wind came in, it got dark, the

lights went off, and once the lights got off then the wind started blowing,” Copperas Cove resident Erasmus Julien told the Killeen Daily Herald. Oncor, Texas’ largest electricity provider, said early Monday that their crews were working around-the-clock to restore electricity in the DallasFort Worth area. The company said that at the peak more than 350,000 of their customers were without power, and more than 130,000 have since had it restored.
As of late Monday morning, almost 500 traffic signals were inoperable across Dallas, and about 170 were flashing red lights, according to the city. At the Elan City Lights building damaged by the crane, fire crews were escorting evacuated residents back inside to retrieve their possessions, as city workers and Occupational Safety and Health Administration officials ponder how to remove the crane embedded in the structure’s east side.
Ex-Boston slugger David Ortiz shot at Dominican Republic bar By MARTÍN JOSÉ ADAMES ALCÁNTARA and MICHAEL WEISSENSTEIN Associated Press
SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic — A U.S. medical team arrived in the Dominican Republic on Monday to airlift David Ortiz to Boston after the former Red Sox slugger affectionately known as Big Papi was ambushed by a gunman at a bar in his native country, authorities said. The 43-year-old retired athlete was in stable condition in intensive care at a Santo Domingo hospital after doctors removed his gallbladder and part of his intestine, according to his spokesman, Leo López. He said Ortiz’s liver was also damaged in the shooting Sunday night. Ortiz is one of the most beloved figures in sports history in the Dominican Republic and Boston, a fearsome power hitter with a ready smile. He led the Red Sox to three World Series championships, was a 10-time All-Star and hit 541 home runs. Dozens of fans crowded

the hospital, causing a traffic jam. In the U.S., fans prayed for his recovery and wished him well, with New England Patriots star Julian Edelman assuring him on Instagram: “Papi, all of New England has your back.” The Red Sox offered “all available resources” and sent an aircraft to bring him back to Boston. “He’s on the Mount Rushmore of Boston sports,” said Eddie Romero, the team’s assistant general manager.
A specially equipped plane was expected to take Ortiz to the U.S. late Monday, said Luis José López Mena, a spokesman for Las Américas airport. Ortiz was at the Dial Bar and Lounge in Santo Domingo on Sunday night when a gunman approached from behind and shot him at close range in the torso, authorities said. The gunman was not immediately identified or arrested, and the motive for the shooting was under investigation, with authorities
trying to determine whether Ortiz was the target. The operator of the motorcycle that was carrying the gunman was captured and beaten by a crowd of people at the bar, authorities said. Eliezer Salvador, who was at the scene, said the gunman said nothing, just fired once. Salvador then drove a wounded Ortiz to the hospital, telling reporters they had a brief conversation in the car as he urged the baseball great to stay calm and breathe. “Do you have any problems with anyone?” Salvador recalled asking him, to which Ortiz replied: “No, my brother, I’ve never wronged anyone.” Salvador held up Ortiz’s bloody belongings for reporters, along with some of his jewelry. He also apologized for hitting several cars while rushing to the hospital: “That wrongdoing was justified.” Ortiz’s father, Leo, said he had no idea why someone would have shot at his son. “He is resting,” the elder Ortiz said. “Big Papi will be around for a long time.”
Around the World Officials say 95 dead in new ethnic massacre in central Mali BAMAKO, Mali — Unknown assailants killed at least 95 people in a central Mali village overnight, government officials said Monday, the latest massacre in a growing ethnic conflict driven by fear and suspicion over alleged ties to extremist groups once limited to the West African country’s north. There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack on the ethnic Dogon village, though tensions have been high since an ethnic Dogon militia was accused of carrying out a massacre in an ethnic Peuhl village in March that left at least 157 dead. The killings highlight the Malian security forces’ inability to contain the spreading extremism by fighters linked to the Islamic State organization and al-Qaida and the growing danger of frightened communities arming themselves. Nineteen people were missing after the Dogon village of Sobame Da was attacked around 3 a.m. on Monday, said Interior Security ministry spokesman Amadou Sangho. Homes were burned and animals slaughtered, the government said. The village is in the commune of Sangha, the heart of the Dogon militia blamed for the March attack that has been the deadliest so far. Some Peuhl leaders had vowed to carry out reprisal attacks for the March bloodshed that was blamed on the Dogon militia known as Dan Na Ambassagou. Militia leader Youssouf Toloba has denied his fighters were involved. On Monday a prominent group representing the Peuhl community, Tabital Pulaaku, issued a statement blaming the “cycle of violence” on the absence of state authority and impunity for perpetrators of attacks. “The insecurity and the large-scale massacres exploited by terrorist groups are the seeds of a total and lasting destabilization of the region,” the statement said. Mali has long battled Islamic extremism in its far north, with a French-led military intervention dispersing jihadists from the region’s major towns. The extremists have infiltrated communities much further south in recent years, stoking animosity between ethnic groups in the more populated region. The Peuhl are accused of working alongside jihadists from the Islamic State of Greater Sahara organization to attack Dogon villages and prevent residents from cultivating their land. In turn, the Peuhl have alleged that the Dogons are collaborating with Mali’s military though there is no conclusive sign of state support. But the groups have not been evenly matched. Human Rights Watch says the Dan Na Ambassagou militia has been behind violence that resulted in much higher death tolls. This is due in part to the sophistication of their weapons. The latest act of “unspeakable barbarism,” however, is a reminder that in this conflict there is no good side and bad side, the head of the United Nations peacekeeping mission, Mahamat Saleh Annadif, said in a statement: “Everyone is responsible.” The violence in central Mali is characterized by “killings, enforced disappearances and burning of villages on an appalling scale,” Amnesty International said Monday. The U.N. Security Council’s meeting this month on Mali to discuss the renewal of what has become the world’s deadliest active U.N. peacekeeping mission should focus on the protection of civilians, the rights group added. Mali’s president has vowed to extinguish the Dan Na Ambassagou militia, though the massacre in March in Ogossagou has led some once-demobilized fighters to take up arms again. Rural bands of hunters have “become paramilitary groups equipped with weapons of war,” arguing that they need to defend their communities if Malian security forces can’t, Jean-Herve Jezequel with the International Crisis Group wrote after the March massacre.
Court rejects challenge to regulation of gun silencers WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court rejected a challenge to federal regulation of gun silencers Monday, just days after a gunman used one in a shooting rampage that killed 12 people in Virginia. The justices did not comment in turning away appeals from two Kansas men who were convicted of violating federal law regulating silencers. The men argued that the constitutional right “to keep and bear arms” includes silencers. The court’s action in the silencer cases was among dozens of orders in pending appeals, including decisions to add an international child custody dispute and four other cases to next term’s docket. The justices also will hear cases dealing with a death row inmate in Arizona, racial discrimination claims against Comcast by an African American owned media company, environmental cleanup at a Superfund site in Montana and a dispute between Intel Corp. and a retired Intel engineer. The court also rejected an appeal from a Yemeni man who has been held at the Guantanamo Bay naval base for more than 17 years. But Justice Stephen Breyer said “it is past time” for the court to decide whether indefinite detention at the U.S. Navy base in Cuba is legal. In the silencer cases, Kansas and seven other states joined in a court filing urging justices to hear the appeals. The states said the court should affirm that the Second Amendment protects “silencers and other firearms accessories.” The other states are: Arkansas, Idaho, Louisiana, Montana, South Carolina, Texas and Utah. President Donald Trump’s administration asked the court to stay out of the case and leave the convictions in place. Shane Cox, owner of a military surplus store, was convicted of making and transferring an unregistered silencer, and customer Jeremy Kettler was convicted of possessing one, all in violation of the 85-year-old National Firearms Act. Both men were sentenced to probation. — The Associated Press

US stocks climb after US suspends tariffs on Mexican goods By DAMIAN J. TROISE and ALEX VEIGA AP Business Writers
Technology companies and banks helped power stocks higher on Wall Street Monday as investors welcomed news that the U.S. and Mexico averted a trade war and potentially damaging tariffs. The latest gains extend the market’s winning streak to a fifth day. That follows the strongest week for stocks since November in what has been a marked turnaround for the market after escalating trade tensions fueled a turbulent skid in May. Some of those trade jitters eased a bit Monday, at least in regard to the trade spat between the U.S. and Mexico. President Donald Trump suspended plans to impose tariffs on Mexican goods after the countries struck a deal on immigration. The dispute threatened to raise costs for American companies and consumers and expand a global trade war that already includes China. During an interview with CNBC, Trump said Monday that he expects to meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping at the Group of 20 summit in Japan later this month. That may have given investors some cause for optimism in the dispute between Washington and Beijing, though Trump noted that an additional wave of U.S. tariffs on Chinese goods will go into effect if the Xi refuses to meet at the summit. “Relief in trade tensions, in terms of Mexico, and hope for relief in trade tensions with China seem to be helping the market today,” said Willie Delwiche, investment strategist at Baird.
The S&P 500 index gained 13.39 points, or 0.5%, to 2,886.73. The benchmark index rose 4.4% last week, its best weekly performance of 2019. It’s now about 2% below its record set on April 30. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 78.74 points, or 0.3%, to 26,062.68. The Nasdaq composite climbed 81.07 points, or 1.1%, to 7,823.17. The Russel 2000 index of smaller companies gained 9.17 points, or 0.6%, to 1,523.56. Stock indexes in Europe finished broadly higher. The latest gains build on the market’s momentum from last week, when a lackluster U.S. jobs report appeared to increase the odds that the Federal Reserve will have to cut interest rates in coming months. Last week, Federal Reserve Chairman Jay Powell held out the possibility that the central bank will soon cut rates to protect the economic recovery from any damage resulting from the Trump administration’s multiple trade disputes. Many analysts think the Fed will cut rates more than once before year’s end, perhaps beginning in July. “We have essentially, over five trading days, undone the preceding 19 days’ worth of weakness,” Delwiche noted. Other market indicators still signal that investors are worried about the potential for an economic slowdown, however. The yield on the 10year Treasury note remains sharply lower from where it was at the beginning of May, before the Trump administration’s tariff threats escalated trade conflicts with China and Mexico.

FARMINGTON, Conn. — Announcing a merger that will see United Technologies Corp. move its headquarters to the Boston area from the state it has called home for nine decades, the chief executive offered assurances Monday that the new company will have a presence in Connecticut “for years to come.” But the symbolism of the move cut deeply in Connecticut, a state that is sensitive about its reputation as a place to do business following the departure of other companies including General Electric, which relocated from Fairfield to Boston. Finger-pointing began at the Statehouse soon after Farmington-based UTC said Sunday that it would merge with Raytheon Co., based in Waltham, Massachusetts, to create a massive aerospace and defense company named Raytheon Technologies Corp. Connecticut Republicans, long the minority party in the Democrat-controlled Legislature, seized on the news to renew criticism of the state’s high taxes and state government’s problems with deficits and debt. They also said recently passed legislation that created paid family medical leave and a higher minimum wage would place more burdens on businesses. “It’s not a proud moment,” said Deputy House Republican leader Vincent Candelora. Democratic leaders downplayed the announcement and noted the bulk of the company’s jobs will stay in the state. “It’s a matter of Boston being a magnet of all kinds,” Senate Majority Leader Martin Looney said. “I think if we were looking at a move to Springfield, Worcester, or Chicopee we would have more reason to be concerned or to be self-reflective.” Looney noted Massachusetts has many of the same policies Connecticut is pursuing, including paid family medical leave and a scheduled $15 per hour minimum wage. Nearly all of the 19,000 Connecticut employees of United Technologies and its subsidiaries will remain in the state, while about 100 top executives and other workers will move to the new headquarters.

Logano dominates race day at Michigan By NOAH TRISTER AP Sports Writer
BROOKLYN, Mich. — Joey Logano won the pole in qualifying and then led for more than threequarters of the actual race. It was an impressive display, but all that could have gone for naught if he hadn’t been sharp on one final restart. Logano won his second NASCAR Cup Series race of the season, holding off Kurt Busch and Martin Truex Jr. in overtime Monday at Michigan International Speedway. Logano was trying to
hold on to a dwindling lead over Truex and Busch with five laps remaining, but around that time, Erik Jones went onto the grass, bringing out the caution flag that forced overtime. “As the leader, you’re like, ‘Ohhhh.’ Right?” Logano said. “But the race fan part of me is like, ‘Heck yeah, this is going to be a great race for everyone to watch.’” Logano and Truex were up front on the restart, along with Kurt and Kyle Busch, and Logano pulled ahead in his No. 22 Ford. “He jumped the restart by over a car length,” Truex said. “I don’t
Oilers end road trip with win Staff report Peninsula Clarion
The Peninsula Oilers wrapped up a season-opening, five-game road trip in the Alaska Baseball League with an overpowering 11-4 win Monday night over the Chugiak/ Eagle River Chinooks at Lee Jordan Field in Chugiak. The Chinooks led 3-0 after five innings but the Oilers rallied with five runs in the top of the sixth to take a lead that only grew from there. The win boosted the Oilers’ 2019 record to 2-3 overall, while the Chinooks dropped to 1-3. After an off day today, the Oilers return for their home opener Wednesday at 7 p.m. against the Chinooks at Coral Seymour Memorial Ballpark. Monday in Chugiak, the Oilers slugged 18 base hits to the Chinooks’ five. Jaden Fein, Giancarlo Servin, Victor Carlino and Kenai Central grad Paul Steffensen each knocked out three hits to lead the team. Steffensen improved his ABL batting average to .318 through the first five games of his ABL career. On the mound, Jonathan Carlos started for the Oilers and lasted four innings before being pulled with no outs in the fifth. Carlos gave up three runs (one earned) on one hit and two walks but struck out five. Jake Adams and Drew Thorpe made relief appearances, with Adams giving up a run on one hit and four walks in two innings, and Thorpe pitching three shutout frames with three hits, two walks and two strikeouts. The Chinooks struck first in the bottom of the fifth on a triple by Mason Corbett, scoring a run that initially reached on error. After Adams relieved Carlos on the mound, the Chinooks added an another run on an RBI groundout from Paddy McKermitt, then tacked on another on a single by Haden Keller to grab a 3-0 edge. The Oilers came back in the top of the sixth, batting around to take the lead. Peninsula started by loading the bases with no outs on three straight singles by Camden Vasquez, Fein and Bobby Goodloe, and Servin came through with a one-out RBI single, then was followed by Calvin Farris’ game-tying tworun single, knotting it up at 3-all. Servin scored the go-ahead run on a throwing error by the Chinooks to make it 4-3, and Carlino roped an RBI single into right field to add to the lead. The Oilers piled on in the top of the ninth with three more runs on four hits, including an RBI single by Steffensen and a run-scoring triple by Carlino. The Oilers had chances to score early in the game, but they fell through. In the top of See BALL, page A8
Twins split with Wolves Staff report Peninsula Clarion
The Post 20 Twins split a Sunday doubleheader with the Eagle River Wolves at Coral Seymour Memorial Ballpark. The Twins won the first game 8-2 before dropping the second, nonleague, game 8-1. The results left the squad with a 1-1 league record and 1-3 overall. In Sunday’s opener, Jeremy Kupferschmid and Harold Ochea combined to pitch a gem against Eagle River. Kupferschmid gave up two runs on five hits and three walks over four innings of work, striking out one along the way. Ochea entered in relief and tossed three scoreless frames with just two hits and two walks allowed, whiffing two. David Michael and Mose Hayes both hit 2 for 4 to lead the Twins, with Hayes knocking in two runs. Seth Adkins, Jacob Boze, Tanner Ussing and Logan Smith all finished See TWINS, page A8
know. I guess they don’t enforce those rules anymore. We’ll have to remember that for next time.” Logano, not surprisingly, had a different view. “I was able to see it right in front of me. I hit it when I got there,” Logano said. “I had a good start though, wasn’t it? That was a good one. That one felt good.” NASCAR said it reviews all restarts and did not find anything problematic with this one. It was the third win in a row for Ford at MIS. This was the 100th race at Michigan for NASCAR’s top series.
The race was held Monday after being rained out Sunday. Logano won the first stage but had to pit toward the end of the second. Austin Dillon won that stage. It was a dominant visit to MIS for Logano, who led a track-record 163 laps in the race. The previous mark of 162 was set in 1989 by Rusty Wallace — although Logano’s race was extended by the overtime. The race was scheduled for 200 laps and 400 miles. After lap 191, Logano had a lead of 1.302 seconds. Truex had cut that to 0.153 after lap 195, and Kurt Busch was right there
too — but that all became moot because of the last caution. “I really wanted it to go green at the end with Truex,” Busch said. “I was going to push him straight through the 22.” Logano won for the 23rd time in his career and took over the points lead from Kyle Busch. Kurt Busch finished second Monday, followed by Truex, Daniel Suarez and Kyle Busch. “You don’t have days like that, that are so close to perfect. That doesn’t happen very often in our sport,” said Logano, the defending series champion.
On the roads again Dixon, Wedeking, Osland, Kimball get Tri-The-Kenai race victories By JOEY KLECKA Peninsula Clarion
Construction on Gas Well and Kalifornsky Beach roads is finished, so let the bikers reign again! Most cyclists competing in Sunday’s Tri-The-Kenai Triathlon were happy to see the road leg return after two years away. The 2017 race didn’t run and the 2018 version had cyclists tearing up the Tsalteshi Trails in lieu of using the roads, which were unable to be used in the annual race due to the installation of the intersection lights at Gas Well and K-Beach roads. But Sunday in the staging area at Skyview Middle School, racers were generally pleased to be back on the pavement. “I’m not a mountain biker,” said intermediate women’s runner-up Linda Barnack. “I am not a technical rider.” “I didn’t like that at all,” said men’s intermediate winner Adam Dixon, who in 2018 completed his first TriThe-Kenai on the trail course. “I had to get a rental bike. I’d never ridden a mountain bike before.” Many of the top finishers were selfdescribed road bikers, naturally, but the road segment was a return to tradition for the race. Dixon celebrated his 51st birthday with a victory in the adult men’s intermediate race, which consisted of a 1,000-yard swim (20 laps in the Skyview pool), a 20-mile ride (two laps of the race route) and a 10-kilometer run on the Tsalteshi Trails. Dixon won the race in 2 hours, 6 minutes, 8 seconds, almost three minutes ahead of men’s runner-up Jon Iannaccone of Kenai, who finished in 2:09:00. Homer’s Dan Miotke took third in 2:10:54. Katra Wedeking of Girdwood won the women’s intermediate race in 2:27:21, beating Anchorage’s Linda Barnack by 1 minute, 37 seconds. In the sprint triathlons, which measure half the distance of the intermediate races, the men’s race went to Tyler Osland 1:02:14, while the women’s sprint event went to Anchorage’s Jenny Kimball in 1:06:45. Sterling’s Morgan Aldridge finished second in 1:09:44. In the youth races, Kaytlin McAnnelly of Soldotna won the girls event in 35:41, beating out Kenai athletes Emily Moss and Madison McDonald. Murphy Kimball won the boy’s race in 27:59, ahead of Jack and Chase Laker of Kasilof. The adult relay race was won by Diminishing Returns from Kenai, while the youth relay victory was won by Hypersonic Nines of Soldotna.

In the men’s intermediate race, Dixon came out of the pool running third or fourth, but relied on a strong cycling leg to take the lead and pull out as big a lead as he could leading up to the run leg. “Mile three (of the run), I looked behind me, there’s all these switchbacks and I could see him,” Dixon said. “I figured he’d catch me, because my (run) time wasn’t all that good. “The bike is where I excel.” Dixon lives in Homer in the summers and winters in Mexico, and has plenty of triathlon experience under his belt. He said he has several more planned this summer, including triathlons in Campeche, Mexico, and Waco, Texas.

Warriors survive to win Game 5 By BRIAN MAHONEY AP Basketball Writer
TORONTO — The Golden State Warriors aren’t letting go of the NBA title just yet. With Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson shooting and Draymond Green swatting, the champions found a way to win even after a gut-wrenching loss. Curry scored 31 points, Thompson added 26 and they led a season-saving surge long after Kevin Durant was injured
again to give the Warriors a 106-105 victory over the Toronto Raptors on Monday night in Game 5 of the NBA Finals. Devastated by the loss of Durant, the All-Stars that the Warriors had left made sure there was celebration along with their sadness, pulling out what Green thought had to be the greatest win during their run to five straight NBA Finals. “When you’re down six with a couple minutes to go in an elimination for these guys
to win a championship, we could have thrown in the towel. We could have folded, but we didn’t,” Green said. “I said it before: I’ve never seen this group fold. And that stands true still.” Curry and Thompson, nicknamed the Splash Brothers, combined for three straight 3-pointers in the closing minutes after Toronto had taken a six-point lead with under 3½ minutes remaining in front of a raucous, red-shirted crowd.
“Even going down six with three minutes left, their ball, we didn’t panic,” Thompson said. “We just do what we do.” The Warriors lost Durant barely a quarter after getting him back but got the win, cutting Toronto’s lead to 3-2 and sending the series back to Oracle Arena for Game 6 on Thursday. Kawhi Leonard scored 26 points for the Raptors but couldn’t get the final shot, which went to Kyle Lowry and was blocked by Green.

train last year, but with more time to prepare this summer and with Dixon in his sights, he felt like the top step of the podium was a reality until the cycling leg. “I tried to stay with him for maybe two miles where I could see him, and all of a sudden he was totally gone,” Iannaccone said. “I never saw him again.” “I knew by mile three when I was leading, I felt pretty good,” Dixon added. In the women’s intermediate event, triathlon veterans Wedeking and Barnack staged a duel in the pool with several other female contenders, but both blazed through the transition area to escape ahead of the pack. That’s where Wedeking made her move. “She crushed the bike,” Barnack said. Wedeking, 45, said with dozens of triathlons under her belt, she knew how to tackle each leg. “I think the bike course is so fun because every time you climb, the downhills are so rewarding,” Wedeking said. “I crush a hill, then get an awesome reward.” Barnack, 32, ended up finishing in 2:28:58. “It’s hilly,” Barnack said of the course. “The bike course is hilly, the run course is hilly and sandy, and you’re just like, ‘Keep moving forward’.” Barnack said chasing Wedeking on the run leg turned into a challenge when she began receiving splits from volunteers at the aid stations. “There’s an aid station you pass by twice and on the first time, they said she was like five minutes ahead,” Barnack recounted. “The next time around they said three minutes, and I thought I can’t make that up.” In the sprint races — which is 500 yards of swimming, 10 miles of cycling and five kilometers of running — Osland proved his worth in the triathlon community. Osland is a newbie triathlete competing in just his second triathlon race ever, but pulled out the victory in 1:02:14, beating out a quartet of peninsula athletes. Kenai’s Jason Moore took second in 1:04:59, Soldotna’s Benjamin McGarry was third, Soldotna’s Kevin Lauver was fourth and Kasilof athlete Mark Laker rounded out the top five. “I kind of got interested last year with the mountain bike (leg),” Osland said. “I’m just borrowing gear, I don’t even have a bike here yet … I can’t even do a flip-turn in the pool.” Osland, a 2003 SoHi grad, works for Southcentral Communications and said racing triathlons are somewhat of a goal fulfilled for him, adding that he has felt the itch to compete in a triathlon for years, but finally took it up last year in the Tri-The-Kenai. “I didn’t do any of this stuff growing up,” Osland said. “I played hockey, and I surf … I cross-country skied when I was in seventh grade out here (at Tsalteshi), and I haven’t been back until last year.” Osland said between surfing worldwide in the summer months and snowboarding in the winter, triathlons are something he could use to stay ready and fit for his active lifestyle. “It’s a good motivator to push me throughout the summer to train,” he said. “It’s something to go for, it’s local.” 2019 Tri-The-Kenai Triathlon

with a hit each. The Wolves broke a scoreless game in the top of the third with a run scored on a wild pitch, but Post 20 responded in the bottom of the inning with three runs to take a 3-1 lead. Metz tied it up by scoring on an Eagle River error, and the Twins took the lead on an RBI single by Hayes. Eagle River got one back in the fourth inning on an RBI single by Chase McGraw, cutting the lead to 3-2, but that would be as close as the Wolves would get. A sac fly by David Michael in the bottom of the fourth added an insurance run, then the Twins scored two runs in each the fifth and sixth innings to distance themselves.

the fifth, Kenai’s Paul Steffensen doubled to put runners on the corners with one out, but a forceout at home on a hit by Carlino and a popout by Skyler Messinger erased the threat. Sunday, the Oilers lost a 4-2 game to the Anchorage Glacier Pilots. The Oilers led 2-0 but could not make it stand against the Pilots, which got a shutout 3 2/3 innings of relief from Anderson Needham and Peyton Carson. Needham gave up just three hits in 1 2/3 frames and Carson earned the save with two supreme innings, scattering two hits with three strikeouts. The Oilers pitching also shined

and a double, respectively. In the second game of the day, it was Eagle River’s pitching staff that sparkled. Damien Frederick pitched four scoreless innings to start for the Wolves, as the Twins could only get two hits and two walks off Frederick. Mason Piper tossed the final three frames with just one unearned run on two hits and four walks. Tanner Ussing got the start for the Twins and gave up four runs (three earned) on four hits and five walks, whiffing one. Boze went 2 2/3 in relief and gave up three earned runs on two hits and two walks. Michael went 2 for 4 to lead the Twins offense, while Metz and Davey Belger were the only other players to get base hits. Eagle River scored in the first, third and fifth innings to take a 4-0 lead. The Twins scored in the bottom of the fifth on an error by the shortstop that brought Chris Jaime home, cutting the gap to 4-1. in tossing a combined one-hitter, but was doomed by nine walks issued to Pilots batters. Brian Merken started for the Oilers but it was Giancarlo Servin taking the loss on the mound. Merken lasted 3 1/3 innings of no-hit ball, giving up two runs on three walks, and Servin entered to pitch 2 1/3 frames of no-hit ball, giving up two runs on six walks, while striking out two. Soldotna’s Joey Becher gave up the lone hit of the night for the Oilers, but kept runs off the board in 1 1/3 frames of relief, and Calvin Farris pitched the final inning perfectly. Drew Thorpe led the way on offense, hitting 3 for 4 with an RBI, and Camden Vasquez went 2 for 2. Peninsula took a 2-0 lead in the second inning on RBI singles from Victor Carlino and Thorpe.

Today in History Today is Tuesday, June 11, the 162nd day of 2019. There are 203 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On June 11, 2001, Timothy McVeigh, 33, was executed by injection at the federal prison in Terre Haute, Indiana, for the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing that killed 168 people. On this date: In 1770, Captain James Cook, commander of the British ship Endeavour, “discovered” the Great Barrier Reef off Australia by running onto it. In 1776, the Continental Congress formed a committee to draft a Declaration of Independence calling for freedom from Britain. In 1942, the United States and the Soviet Union signed a lendlease agreement to aid the Soviet war effort in World War II. In 1947, the government announced the end of sugar rationing for households and “institutional users” (e.g., restaurants and hotels) as of midnight. In 1955, in motor racing’s worst disaster, more than 80 people were killed during the 24 Hours of Le Mans in France when two of the cars collided and crashed into spectators. In 1962, three prisoners at Alcatraz in San Francisco Bay staged an escape, leaving the island on a makeshift raft; they were never found or heard from again. In 1970, the United States presence in Libya came to an end as the last detachment left Wheelus Air Base. (The anniversary of this event is celebrated as a holiday in Libya.) In 1978, Joseph Freeman Jr. became the first black priest ordained in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. In 1985, Karen Ann Quinlan, the comatose patient whose case prompted a historic right-to-die court decision, died in Morris Plains, New Jersey, at age 31. In 1986, the John Hughes comedy “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off,” starring Matthew Broderick, was released by Paramount Pictures. In 1987, Margaret Thatcher became the first British prime minister in 160 years to win a third consecutive term of office as her Conservatives held onto a reduced majority in Parliament. In 1993, the U.S. Supreme Court unanimously ruled that people who commit “hate crimes” motivated by bigotry may be sentenced to extra punishment; the court also ruled religious groups had a constitutional right to sacrifice animals in worship services. The Steven Spielberg science-fiction film “Jurassic Park” opened in wide release two days after its world premiere in Washington, D.C. Ten years ago: With swine flu reported in more than 70 nations, the World Health Organization declared the first global flu pandemic in 41 years. The NCAA placed Alabama’s football program and 15 other of the school’s athletic teams on three years’ probation for major violations due to misuse of free textbooks, stripping the Crimson Tide of 21 football wins over a three-year period. Five years ago: During a Capitol Hill hearing, Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel aggressively defended the secret prisoner exchange of five Taliban detainees for Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, telling Congress that the risks were too great and the situation too uncertain for the administration to tell lawmakers about the plan. Acclaimed actress and civil rights activist Ruby Dee, 91, died in New Rochelle, New York. One year ago: U.S. and North Korean officials met at a hotel in Singapore to negotiate on the eve of the first summit between a U.S. president and a North Korean leader. The Supreme Court ruled that states can target people who haven’t cast ballots in a while in efforts to purge their voting rolls. Today’s Birthdays: Former U.S. Rep. Charles B. Rangel, DN.Y., is 89. Comedian Johnny Brown is 82. International Motorsports Hall of Famer Jackie Stewart is 80. Singer Joey Dee is 79. Actor Roscoe Orman is 75. Actress Adrienne Barbeau is 74. Rock musician Frank Beard (ZZ Top) is 70. Animal rights activist Ingrid Newkirk is 70. Rock singer Donnie Van Zant is 67. Actor Peter Bergman is 66. Pro Football Hall of Famer Joe Montana is 63. Actor Hugh Laurie is 60. TV personality Mehmet Oz, M.D., is 59. Singer Gioia (JOY’-ah) Bruno (Expose) is 56. Rock musician Dan Lavery (Tonic) is 53. Country singer-songwriter Bruce Robison is 53. Actress Clare Carey is 52. Actor Peter Dinklage is 50. Country musician Smilin’ Jay McDowell is 50. Actor Lenny Jacobson is 45. Rock musician Tai Anderson (Third Day) is 43. Actor Joshua Jackson is 41. Americana musician Gabe Witcher (Punch Brothers) is 41. Christian rock musician Ryan Shrout is 39. Actor Shia LaBeouf (SHY’-uh luh-BUF’) is 33. Thought for Today: “People do not believe lies because they have to, but because they want to.” -- Malcolm Muggeridge, British author and commentator (1903-1990).

After 30 years, husband says marriage isn’t what he wanted you better with him or without him, and what are your legal rights in the state in which you and this man live. (Not referring to him as your “husband” was not an oversight.) DEAR ABBY: I recently left my job and flew across the country Abigail Van Buren for an internship on a small farm to learn about sustainable farming. I have been here a week. I have met some awesome people and have been having some fun with them in my free time. However, I’m now having second thoughts. This is hard, physical labor, and my living conditions are a lot more rustic and communal than I was led to believe. There is no electricity in our quarters, and we cook our meals outside on a propane stove. Also, the internship is unpaid, and I’ll have to pay to take a summer class. While I feel I am benefiting from this experience, I miss my old job (which I can get back) and the more comfortable lifestyle. Do

past your feelings to enjoy the moment and those around you more often. Tonight: Hang out at a favorite haunt. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH Be aware of a sense of insecurity that could start to take over the moment and your feelings. You could find it difficult to proceed in certain moods. Simply flow with the moment. Tonight: Take a hard look at your finances. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH Even with a misunderstanding, you feel that you can make your point and gain. Someone is likely to lose his or her temper partway through a project. This person needs to clear the air. Listen and ask appropriate questions. Tonight: Doing your thing. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH You have certain expectations, but be honest with yourself; those expectations do not always get fulfilled. Go with the flow and observe without making a decision. You might find this process quite informative. Tonight: Make it early. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH Zero in on priorities and do not allow a friend to distract you. You have certain goals that need fulfilling. You will want to make these wishes real. A friendship plays a key role in the next few days. Tonight: All smiles. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH You naturally exude a takecharge attitude. You know what you want and where you are going. Be more open to a fast change that might leave you with very little control. You will come to an understanding about control in the near future. Tonight: A force to behold. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH Reach out for someone at a distance. You could feel that you need some feedback and a different perspective. You might find brainstorming with various people helpful. Tonight: How ‘bout a movie? PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH One-on-one relating could fluctuate far more than you realize. At times you might have the confidence of others and not even realize it. Listen to suggestions with open sincerity. Tonight: With a special person. BORN TODAY Football player Joe Montana (1956), talk show host Dr. Oz (1960), actor Hugh Laurie (1959)

SHOULD I CALL MAINTENANCE OR NOT? Dear Heloise: My apartment manager gave out some great advice: If you’re not sure whether you should call the maintenance person, go ahead and do it. A tiny water spot on the ceiling can lead to big, big problems. Sometimes, the manager said, if I don’t report a problem, I could actually be held responsible for any damage that accrues! Yikes! I inspect my apartment once a month. -- Janice B. in Oklahoma ALWAYS FOREVER Dear Heloise: I have to drive this point home to my kids: Everything you post on the internet -- every email, every text message, every instant message, every picture -- is out there FOREVER. Every blog, every online chat, every webcam video -- it’s out there forever, and it could come back to haunt them. -- Donald T. in Illinois Important reminder, Donald. Yes, all of the electronic communication is traceable. Don’t write something or take a picture of something you could regret. -- Heloise LETTER OF LAUGHTER Dear Heloise: I graduated from high school in 1946 and immediately enlisted in the U.S. Navy. Then I decided to go to our local junior college for two years. I took an English course, which is one of the smart things I did in life. Our teacher was one of the best. One of the first lessons we learned is as follows: “A preposition is a word one should NEVER end a sentence with!” -- Chuck S., Manitou Springs, Colo.

Jacqueline Bigar’s Stars HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Tuesday, June 11, 2019: This year, you seem far more open and creative, yet inordinately smooth and diplomatic. Others can’t help but respond positively to you. They feel as if they have no choice. Your charisma speaks. If you’re single, you meet people with ease. You charm draws in more than your share of wannabe admirers. Decide what type of relationship you desire, and then you will know who to choose. If you’re attached, the two of you can resolve any of your problems if you are willing. You know how to bring out the best in your significant other. You enjoy each other. You discover how politically correct LIBRA can be. Maintain a sense of humor and you will find that problems dissolve. The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH You might start out charming and willing to work with others in the morning. By evening, you could easily toss your hands in the air after a misunderstanding. You simply cannot resolve the problem right now. Tonight: Off doing your thing. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH You demonstrate a willingness to work with a close associate who often can be a troublemaker. You also might witness a greater ability to grow past stubborn opinions, which could imbue you with enthusiasm. Tonight: Know when to call it a night. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH You allow your creativity to emerge. Brainstorm with others; this will cause a change in your perspective. Communication might become confusing. Just decide if you want what is being offered. Tonight: Making the most of the moment. Be silly if you want. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Emotions could go from one extreme to another. You would be well advised not to make any decisions if you feel wishy-washy or still very moody. Sometimes stability comes from the knowledge that all will change. Tonight: Hang out. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH You will speak your mind despite the presence of a rigid personality that can make you uncomfortable. Get

you think I need to give this internship more time? -- ACROSS THE COUNTRY DEAR ACROSS: You signed on for the internship for a good reason -- to learn. Having done that, it will be not only educational but also character-building to see it through until the end of the summer. This isn’t forever, and the lessons you learn may last a lifetime. DEAR ABBY: My 15-year-old son has difficulty expressing himself and keeps things bottled up. You often advise people to seek counseling. Could you please advise me about how to begin that process and how to find the right fit and person for one’s individual needs? -- INVOLVED PARENT IN VIRGINIA DEAR PARENT: Start by asking your doctor to refer you to a specialist who works with adolescents. The company that provides your health insurance can also give you some referrals. After you and your son meet the candidates, it is simply a matter of choosing a therapist your son feels comfortable talking with.

DEAR ABBY: Just months before our 30th wedding anniversary, my husband told me he doesn’t love me and never wanted to marry me. I am beyond devastated. I feel I have wasted the best years of my life. We have two beautiful daughters who are my everything. When he revealed this news to me, it turned my life upside down. I don’t know how to process it or what to do. I have spent years begging him to be more affectionate and loving. I always assumed he just didn’t know how to show love. It never crossed my mind that he has never loved me. I feel naive, betrayed and robbed. -- HOPELESS IN THE MIDWEST DEAR HOPELESS: When your husband handed you that “bouquet,” was he angry or inebriated? It is hard to believe that a man would stay married for 30 years to someone he didn’t love and didn’t want to marry in the first place. (Shotgun weddings are long out of style.) Revisit that conversation with him, and if he tells you he meant what he said, you are justified in feeling the way you describe. The questions then become are

2nd horse in 2 days, 29th overall, dies at Santa Anita The Associated Press
ARCADIA, Calif. — A second horse in two days and 29th overall has died at Santa Anita, where management has chosen to continue racing for the rest of the current meet. Truffalino collapsed in the final stages of the third race on turf Sunday. A track spokesman says the 3-yearold filly died of a heart attack. She was trained by Hall of Famer Richard Mandella and was ridden by Joe Talamo. Truffalino had one win in six career starts and earnings of $53,602, according
to Equibase. A day earlier, Formal Dude pulled up in the 10th race and was vanned off the track after breaking down nearing the finish line. Tiago Pereira was aboard the favorite trained by Phil D’Amato. The 4-year-old gelding was winless in six career starts and had earnings of $15,127, according to Equibase. Formal Dude was euthanized. The California Horse Racing Board has recommended that the track suspend the remaining days of its meet, which is set to end June 23. However, Santa Anita management has cho-

sen to continue racing. The racing board doesn’t have the authority to suspend a race meet or remove race dates from a current meet without the approval of the track operator or without holding a public meeting that requires 10 days’ notice. The CHRB recommended that Santa Anita suspend racing but allow horses to continue training, believing it would provide the industry extra time to fully implement announced safety initiatives. “It is our understanding that Santa Anita management, after consultation with certain other industry

In providing Santa Anita 10 days’ notice, the CHRB may be able to shut down the track for the last three days of the meet. Santa Anita has enacted a series of reforms aimed at improving safety, but despite its efforts and a sixweek stretch in which no horses died at the Arcadia track, more deaths have occurred. “Either the rules aren’t strong enough or the rules
