Kenai airport to receive $1.2 million federal grant
In the news Anchorage man suspected of shooting into upstairs apartment ANCHORAGE — A south Anchorage woman didn’t call police when she heard an argument and a noise from the apartment below. She changed her mind a few hours later when she saw bullet holes. Police investigating Sunday night determined that a bullet had passed through her floor and into her ceiling. Officers checked the apartment below and found a man on a couch, a holster, empty liquor bottles and a shell casing. After obtaining a search warrant, they found a bullet hole in his ceiling and the gun that apparently made it. They took the man into custody on suspicion of assault, weapons misconduct, reckless endangerment and resisting arrest. A woman in the lower apartment said she had argued with the man, retreated into a bedroom and heard a shot.
Passengers in fatal airplane crash were from Michigan ANCHORAGE — Alaska State Troopers have released the names of two Michigan residents killed in a weekend small airplane crash on the Kenai Peninsula. Troopers say the passengers killed in the crash of the private plane Friday night have been tentatively identified as 42-year-old Michael John Timmer and 43-year-old Traci Pauline Timmer of Hopkins, Michigan. The pilot, 63-yearold Kem Sibbitt of Fairbanks also died. The Helio Courier airplane went down on land near Little Johnstone Lake, which is near Johnstone Bay about 30 miles southeast of Seward. All three bodies were recovered Saturday. The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the crash. — Associated Press

Lawmakers reject Wasilla as site for special session By Mark Thiessen Associated Press
ANCHORAGE — Alaska lawmakers have rejected Gov. Mike Dunleavy’s location of his hometown of Wasilla for a special session that starts next month. The Alaska Legislature will instead convene in Juneau on July 8 and then hold a majority of its meetings in Anchorage, House Speaker Bryce Edgmon, an independent from Dillingham, and Senate President Cathy Giessel, an Anchorage Republican, said in a joint statement. “The majority of legislators in both bodies considers it our right to determine the location and venue best equipped to conduct business on the governor’s special session call, while providing the most access to as many Alaskans possible,” the statement said. “Instead of convening in Wasilla, legislative leadership is attempting to retreat back to Juneau,” Dunleavy said in a statement, adding

Over the course of the summer, the Kenai Peninsula Food Bank will be presenting its Food For Thought series to help engage residents in learning more about food and nutrition. The short lectures last around 30 to 45 minutes, Greg Meyer, food bank executive director, said. The series also includes a free dinner in the bank’s Fireweed Diner. The series will cover topics related to food, like helping attendees decipher food labels, how to use beans and lentils for tasty meals or finding nutritious foods to give picky eaters.

come meet in Wasilla.” Dunleavy had called the session for Wasilla, home to his conservative base. Dunleavy said a change of location for the second special session this year would be good for lawmakers, who have not completed their work in five months in Juneau. Lawmakers from the region, the Matanuska-Sustina Borough, or the Mat-Su Valley as it’s known, touted the fact that unlike Juneau, Wasilla is on the state’s road system. Juneau is accessible by only plane or boats, but a majority of the state’s residents could drive to Wasilla. “The fact that legislative leadership plans to run away from the Mat-Su Valley back to their hiding places in Juneau is extremely illuminating,” said House Minority Leader Lance Pruitt, an Anchorage Republican. “The legislative leadership has already tried to have these conversations on the budget,
series’ goal is to bring awareness about healthier, local foods, and to help people use the commodities they have at home or at the food bank. “We’re trying to help people stretch their dollar, use local foods in their gardens or from farmers markets to eat a little bit healthier,” Meyer said. The series takes place 5 to 6 p.m. on Tuesdays, in conjunction with the Farmers Fresh Market, which is in the food bank parking lot from 3 to 6 p.m. on Tuesdays. Meyer said they planned it this way so locals could visit the farmers market and pick up healthy, local fruits and vegetables and apply what they learn in See FOOD, page A3

est System lands. The battle about the roadless rule has been going on for almost two decades, ever since it was established in 2001. “The Tongass is still considered the crown jewel of the national forest system: 500 miles, north to south, 70,000 inhabitants in 32 communities, but we still know there are wild bears, wolves, coyotes, whales, beavers everywhere you turn,” Rep. Sara Hannan, D-Juneau, said to the crowd. “Even in urban Juneau we say to our tourists, ‘Yeah, that’s another eagle, yeah, whatever,’ and we forget that in most of America seeing an eagle and a bear and a salmon is the thing of National Geographic on TV.” Tlingit activist and Women’s Earth and Climate Action Network (WECAN) member Wanda Culp spoke of the bond between Alaska Natives and traditional lands. “We are inseparable,” Culp said. Culp recounted her visit to the nation’s capital to voice her support of the roadless rule. “We hit 16 offices in two days, it was quite the experience,” Culp said during the rally. “We also did hit Lisa Murkowski’s office, who is telling everybody on the Hill that Alaskans are for weakening the roadless rule, voting it down. We were there literally fill-

ing everybody’s ears with the truth of the people. Not any corporation, not any industry and certainly not the State of Alaska who is infantile compared to us.” A handful of youth spelled out “NO ACTION” with painted picket signs, while others could be spotted at the back of the crowd. Deanna Hobbs, 21, was one of the Southeast Alaska Conservation Council staffers at the rally. In an interview, Hobbs echoed some of Culp’s concerns over the positions of Alaska’s elected officials. “They need to look at what the people actually care about because it’s not normal, everyday Alaskans that are trying to get the exception,” Hobbs said. “It’s the big
politicians that get money from the timber industries and there’s real people that are negatively affected. Not just regular city folk, but also indigenous people.” Sens. Dan Sullivan and Lisa Murkowski are both supportive of increasing resource development in Southeast. Sen. Sullivan told the Empire in March he supports making changes to the roadless rule, and Sen. Murkowski wrote an opinion piece in the Ketchikan Daily News with the same stance. Hobbs said expanding the logging industry could negatively impact other sectors of Alaska’s economy like tourism and fishing. “Those are negatively affected by mass logging,” Hobbs said. “I per-
sonally am very passionate about conservation and I’m not a big fan of logging in the first place.” One of the more rousing speeches came from former City and Borough of Juneau Assembly member Kate Troll, who touched on the role of the Tongass in combating climate change. As the largest remaining temperate rainforest and largest national forest in North America, she talked about the Tongass as a “carbon storer.” “For the sake of the climate crisis we’re in, we need to leave these carbon sinks in place, leave the roadless rule alone,” Troll said. “President Trump may not care about the state of our climate crisis, but we do. The Tongass is not Trump’s Tongass.”
burn ban includes burn barrels. Campfires are allowed but must be kept smaller than 3 feet high and 3 feet wide. “If you build a campfire remember to have plenty of water on site to suppress any embers that may escape your campfire enclosure,” the release said. “Individuals should check any fires they have lit in the past month
to ensure that they are completely out.” Fire crews are monitoring fire behavior and weather forecasts to minimize the disruption of traffic from smoke impacts along the Sterling Highway, the update said. Crews continued preparing for burnout operations Monday, focusing efforts north of the Homer Elec-
tric transmission line located several hundred feet north of the Sterling Highway. Over the next several days the weather is expected to be hot and dry, with shifting and variable wins.

posed largely of Democrats, rejected a full payout during the first special session of the year, in Juneau, while the Republican-led Senate was more closely divided in not advancing a full payout. Edgmon cited security concerns about the Wasilla location, earlier saying he received threatening phone calls and “angry, vitriolic” emails from people upset with lawmakers not approving the higher amount. He said many emails have come from the Matanuska-Susitna region. Edgmon and Giessel said funding the check was important, but the agenda for the special session should have also addressed longterm stability of the program. They also faulted the call for the session not including the capital budget, which needs to be finalized by the end of July. They said Alaska private sector businesses could be hurt if Alaska has to forfeit nearly $1 billion in federal highway and aviation projects because matching dollars would not be available if the capital budget isn’t approved.

The sole topic for the special session is to determine the amount of this year’s oil fund check to residents, a politically divisive issue that has been simmering for years and is nearing a boiling point. The checks have been smaller for the past three years as political leaders struggling with a budget deficit strayed from a formula in state law for calculating them. If the law is followed as Dunleavy wants, this year’s check will be about $3,000. The House, controlled by a bipartisan majority com-

What others say
Dems’ free college would be a free-for-all Among the panoply of giveaways
promised by this election cycle’s field of Democrats is free college. At least 15 candidates are all in and chances are that number will increase. In April, Liz Warren tweeted, “I’m calling for universal free college and the cancellation of student loan debt for more than 95% of Americans. This is the kind of big, structural change we need to make sure our kids have opportunity in this country.” The Warren suite of free college and debt forgiveness would be paid for by the Ultra-Millionaire Wealth Tax, as would many of her other initiatives. Frontrunner Joe Biden has come out for two years of free college, saying in May, “Send everybody to a community college for free, cutting in half the cost of their four-year education.” Biden’s plan may fluctuate if his polling does and he has taken several positions on the issue over the years. Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont introduced legislation called the College for All Act in 2017. It would have made college free for families making less than $125,000 a year. “If we can give a trillion dollars in tax breaks to people who don’t need it, we can make public colleges and universities tuition-free all over this country, and that’s a very high priority for me,” he said earlier this year. During a CNN town hall in March, Cory Booker (D-N.J.) declared, “We are going to go towards a system of debt-free college, free community college, and make sure that certain professions, like teachers — if you’re willing to teach or be a school professional, especially in communities like Orangeburg or Newark, we are going to forgive your debt.” In March, Sen. Kamala Harris, (D-Calif.), along with dozens of members of Congress reintroduced the Debt-Free College Act. “Students in America should be able to go to college to further their careers without going deep into a financial hole,” she said in a press release. Pete Buttigieg has come out against free college tuition and Beto O’Rourke has held out supporting it wholeheartedly but has teased a preference for a two-year college supplement. Not surprisingly none of the free college initiatives will actually be free for the taxpayers who will ultimately pay the bill. Also, the recipients of most of this Democratic goodwill will be Americans who need it least. Middle-class and somewhat wealthy students will benefit the most. Also, what is to incentivize a student who receives free college to take courses or embark on a major that would be financially fruitful without the instant pressure of needing to address the expense of the education? Indeed, what will incentivize students to finish a degree or certificate at all? Further, if college is free, enrollment numbers will skyrocket and more graduates will be spat out into the workforce with near-identical resumes. That will certainly drive down wages and reduce the prospect of employment at all for many. Free college will not be free for the taxpayer and will be a disservice for most students, most of whom may want the handout, but don’t need it. — The Boston Herald, June 18

Get politicians out of the workplace A laska V oices R ich M oniak “Our constitution requires an annual budgeting process, period.” That succinct statement by Attorney General Kevin Clarkson is the defense in a funding dispute between Gov. Mike Dunleavy and the Legislature. It involves $30 million of FY 2020 education money appropriated in this year’s budget. Forward funding, Dunleavy has argued, interferes with his line item veto power. But don’t be fooled. The power grab is really his. In the name of making government less expensive and more efficient, it’s one of the ways he’s compounding the problem by interfering with people trying to do their job. We ought to be wary every time politicians act like they’re defending the constitution. It’s often discarded when it doesn’t suit their ideological agenda. Such is the case with the residency requirements in Dunleavy’s proposal to pay out the portion of the Alaska Permanent Fund dividend that was reduced the past three years. And his failure to fill a vacant Superior Court seat within the 45-day deadline defined in the constitution. Related to the question of forward funding was Dunleavy’s proposal in January to cut $20 million in education from the current year budget. He had a constitutional duty to allocate those funds to the districts, and should have done so in a timely manner. Instead, the attempt to pull it back created uncertain-
ty for managers across the state. That’s largely what lawmakers were trying to prevent by forward funding part of the education budget for FY 2020. These disputes aren’t about the constitution, or improving government. It’s about Dunleavy wanting absolute control of the budget so he can cut it to the bone. That’s the primary objective behind his administrative order establishing statewide consolidation of procurement personnel and functions. The stated one is to eliminate redundancies in purchases, improve the implementation of best practices, streamline procurement enforcing policies and improve efficiencies. Like all efforts to reform government, staff reduction is touted as one the anticipated benefits. This isn’t a novel concept. Starting in 2005, it was supposed to help solve the procurement problems at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). How bad was it? According to the Journalism Initiative of the Carnegie and Knight Foundations, DHS’s “reputation for procurement incompetence became so established that even contracts that were handled effectively were routinely cited as examples of mismanagement.” A major contributor to the DHS failures was Vice President Al Gore’s “Reinvent Government” initiative in 1993. It was supposed to make “the entire federal government less expensive.” Many of the procurement reforms it identified were signed into law in the Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act of 1994 and Federal Acquisition Reform Act of 1995. Decentralization was the driving philosophy behind Gore’s plan. Delegating authority and responsibility to lowerlevel employees was supposed to eliminate micromanagement and put decision makers closer to their work. But spread-
ing out the workforce wasn’t compatible with staffing reductions that were also implemented to reduce the overall size of government. And it proved to one of the primary culprits for the procurement mess at DHS. That ought to be a warning to Dunleavy that consolidation isn’t as simple as it sounds. DHS had to staff up, not down, to fix the problem. But the story doesn’t end there. “Congressional watchdogs continue to find failures in how DHS spends billions of taxpayer dollars on its major acquisition purchases,” Rep. Scott Perry, R-Pennsylvania, said 10 years after the department began consolidating its procurement activities. So here we go again. He introduced the “DHS Acquisition Accountability and Efficiency Act” in 2015. Sooner or later, a new governor will conclude Dunleavy’s consolidated procurement approach isn’t working well enough. Instead of doing real work, government managers will be directed to spend an enormous amount of money churning out new studies and reorganization plans that in the long run accomplish little or nothing at all. That’s a form of government waste that needs no further explanation. The moral here is that some level of government inefficiency is inherently part of all governmental functions. Selectively adhering to the constitution won’t change that. Neither will the obsession with downsizing, rightsizing and otherwise reforming it with directions from the top. The problem is less about the people doing their jobs than the ivory tower politicians telling them how it should be done.

AP News Analysis
Trump moves show him to be unreliable partner By LISA MASCARO AP Congressional Correspondent
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump’s abrupt decision against military strikes may have prevented open military conflict with Iran, but it also showed him anew to be an unpredictable, unreliable, partner at home and abroad. Trump won his job partly on his claims to be a great dealmaker. But the celebrity businessman-turned-president’s negotiating style — repeatedly pushing toward a brink only to pull back at the moment of action — leaves the U.S. lurching from crisis to crisis. On trade tariffs, immigration raids and now the standoff with Iran, his course reversals confound allies as well as adversaries, and his own party in Congress. As fallout from Trump’s actions reverberated around the globe on Monday, and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo jetted to the Middle East in search of a coalition of allies against Iran, the president offered a fresh round of equivocation, defending his decision not to attack Iran even while issuing new threats. “I think a lot of restraint has been shown by us. A lot of restraint. And that doesn’t mean we’re going to show it in the future, but I felt that we want to give him this chance,” Trump said. “We would love to be able to negotiate a deal if they want to. If they don’t want to that’s fine too.” His backing off on military strikes that were about to be launched in retaliation for the shootdown of an unmanned U.S. drone was just one of several recent tactical shifts by the White House on significant issues. Over the weekend, Trump changed course over immigration raids that had stoked fear among people and families living in the
country illegally. He postponed steep tariffs he had announced on Mexico earlier this month, giving immigration talks more time. The Iran standoff, however, is perhaps the most dangerous, as the two countries escalate rhetoric and actions that raise concerns in Congress and the world at large that Iran and the U.S. could stumble into broad military conflict. When lawmakers asked the president last week how he would be making his decision on Iran, he responded, “My gut.” While that decision not to order military strikes appears to have calmed tensions with Iran, at least somewhat, Trump’s messages leave uncertainty about next steps. “We’ve never seen anything like it,” said Rep. Tom Malinowski, D-N.J., a newly elected freshman who served as an assistant secretary of state in the Obama administration. “I’m glad that he changed his mind about the strike, made the right decision, but he made it in the worst possible way,” Malinowski said in an interview Monday. “I don’t think anyone has any clue what our policy is.” GOP defense hawks, including Rep. Liz Cheney of Wyoming, the former vice president’s daughter, warn against Trump’s approach, too. She told a radio host that “weakness is provocative” when it comes to confronting Iran and other adversaries. Other Republicans say Trump is merely keeping his options open as he pushes Iran to negotiate. That’s different, they say, from his predecessor, Barack Obama, who drew a red line against Syria, but then wavered against taking military action. Ohio GOP Rep. Mike Turner, a member of the Armed Services Committee, said in an interview Monday that Trump’s style
is more like one you’d see from a litigator trying to get an outcome in talks. “It sort of sends a signal to Iran that if you continue, do expect a military response,” he said. Trump’s shifting tactics have drawn mostly silence from U.S. allies across the globe, who have declined to publicly assess the president’s decision making or his “maximum pressure” campaign that is using economic sanctions in an effort to force Iran to the negotiating table over nuclear issues. The tensions with Iran come amid deepening divisions between the United States and its European allies over foreign policy and trade, with the allies appearing to talk past each other on a matter that all view as a crucial security issue. While European leaders have been careful not to criticize Trump’s actions, they’re also cool toward U.S. talk of building a global coalition against Iran. German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas told ZDF television over the weekend, “The strategy of maximum pressure can’t be the right one, because one of the consequences is that we are all talking about how serious the situation is, and that there is a danger of war.” Germany, France and Britain, as well as Russia and China, remain part of the nuclear deal that Trump abandoned last year as he tries to cut a new accord that would further curtail Iran’s nuclear capability. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, a close friend of the president, has welcomed Trump’s tough line toward Iran, including last year’s U.S. pullout from the nuclear deal. But the Israeli leader has said little in public during the recent crisis, apparently wary of being seen as pushing the U.S. toward war.

Nation/World Driver with record charged with 7 homicides in biker crash By MICHAEL CASEY Associated Press
CONCORD, N.H. — The driver of a pickup truck in a fiery collision on a rural New Hampshire highway that killed seven motorcyclists was charged Monday with seven counts of negligent homicide, and records show he was stopped on suspicion of drunken driving last month and in 2013. Volodymyr Zhukovskyy, 23, was arrested Monday morning at his home in West Springfield, Massachusetts, the New Hampshire attorney general’s office said. Zhukovskyy was questioned at the scene of Friday’s crash and allowed to return to Massachusetts, the National Transportation Safety Board has said. Zhukovskyy was handed over to New Hampshire authorities after a brief court appearance Monday in Springfield, Massachusetts. The 23-year-old looked down at his feet as he was led into the courtroom with his hands cuffed behind his back. Connecticut prosecutors say he was arrested May 11 in an East Windsor Walmart parking lot after failing a sobriety test. Officers had re-
sponded to a complaint about a man who was revving his truck engine and jumping up and down outside the vehicle. Additionally, Zhukovskyy was arrested on a drunken driving charge in 2013 in Westfield, Massachusetts, state motor vehicle records show. He was placed on probation for one year and had his license suspended for 210 days, The Westfield News reported. A man who answered the phone at the home of Zhukovskyy’s family and would identify himself only as his brother-in-law said Monday that the family is in shock and feeling the same pain as everyone else but couldn’t say whether the driver was right or wrong. Since the accident, the brother-in-law said, Zhukovskyy had remained in his room, not eaten and talked to no one. Defense attorney Donald Frank called Friday’s crash a “tragedy” but said it’s important to let the criminal justice system play out. Zhukovskyy’s pickup truck, towing a flatbed trailer, collided with a group of 10 motorcycles Friday on a twolane highway in the northern New Hampshire community

of Randolph, investigators said. The truck was traveling west when it struck the eastbound group of motorcycles. The victims were members or supporters of the Marine JarHeads, a New England motorcycle club that includes Marines and their spouses, and ranged in age from 42 to 62. Four were from New Hampshire, two from Massachusetts and one from Rhode Island. George Loring, a JarHeads member who lives in Hingham, Massachusetts, and was a few hundred yards from the crash, said Zhukovskyy has “got to live with it for the rest of his life.” “Everyone’s suffering so
much,” Loring said. “It’s so sad for the brothers and sisters who died. You can be angry at him, you can be whatever. I don’t know. I’m glad he’s been arrested.” Joseph Mazza, whose nephew Albert Mazza Jr. was killed in the crash, welcomed the arrest but called it a poor consolation for the loss of a loved one. “As long as he pays a price. He has caused lot of harm to a lot of families,” Mazza said from his Haverhill home. “If has a problem, he shouldn’t be on the road. If he is a bad actor, he doesn’t belong on the street. He caused enough of a tragedy. Enough is enough.”
Government moves migrant kids after AP exposes bad treatment By MARTHA MENDOZA and GARANCE BURKE Associated Press
The U.S. government has removed most of the children from a remote Border Patrol station in Texas following reports that more than 300 children were detained there, caring for each other with inadequate food, water and sanitation. Just 30 children remained at the facility near El Paso Monday, said Rep. Veronica Escobar after her office was briefed on the situation by an official with Customs and Border Protection. Attorneys who visited the Border Patrol station in Clint, Texas, last week said older children were trying to take care of infants and toddlers, The Associated Press first reported Thursday. They described a 4-year-old with matted hair who had gone without a shower for days, and hungry, inconsolable children struggling to soothe one another. Some had been locked for three weeks inside the facility, where 15 children were sick with the flu and another 10 were in medical quarantine.

“How is it possible that you both were unaware of the inhumane conditions for children, especially tender-age children at the Clint Station?” asked Escobar in a letter sent Friday to U.S. Customs and Border Protection acting commissioner John Sanders and U.S. Border Patrol chief Carla Provost. She asked to be informed by the end of this week what steps they’re taking to end “these humanitarian abuses.” Lawmakers from both parties decried the situation last week. Border Patrol officials have not responded to AP’s
questions about the conditions at the Clint facility, but in an emailed statement Monday they said: “Our short-term holding facilities were not designed to hold vulnerable populations and we urgently need additional humanitarian funding to manage this crisis.” Although it’s unclear where all the children held at Clint have been moved, Escobar said some were sent to another facility on the north side of El Paso called Border Patrol Station 1. Escobar said it’s a temporary site with roll-out mattresses, showers, medical facilities and air conditioning.
But Clara Long, an attorney who interviewed children at Border Patrol Station 1 last week, said conditions were not necessarily better there. “One boy I spoke with said his family didn’t get mattresses or blankets for the first two nights and he and his mom came down with a fever,” said Long, a senior researcher with Human Rights Watch. “He said there were no toothbrushes, and it was very, very cold.” Vice President Mike Pence, asked about the unsafe, unsanitary conditions for the children on Meet The Press on Sunday, said “it’s totally unacceptable” adding that he hopes Congress will allocate more resources to border security. Long and a group of lawyers inspected the facilities because they are involved in the Flores settlement, a Clinton-era legal agreement that governs detention conditions for migrant children and families. The lawyers negotiated access to the facility with officials and say Border Patrol knew the dates of their visit three weeks in advance.
Sudan’s military sidesteps proposal for civilian rule

KHARTOUM, Sudan — Sudan’s military rulers refused to agree on Monday to the Ethiopian proposal for a power-sharing agreement with the country’s pro-democracy movement, a top general said, in comments that could worsen a volatile standoff with the protesters. Ethiopia has led diplomatic efforts to bring the military and protest leaders back to the negotiating table, after a deadly crackdown by security forces
killed at least 128 people across the country earlier this month, according to protest organizers. Sudanese authorities offered a lower toll of 61 deaths. Protest leaders, represented by the coalition Forces for Declaration of Freedom and Change, had accepted the Ethiopian initiative the day before. It centered on forming a transitional government — a so-called “sovereign council” — with a civilian majority to rule Sudan, over two months after the protesters forced the military to remove the autocrat Omar al-Bashir from power.
Around the World
But on Monday, the powerful deputy head of the military council, Gen. Mohammed Hamdan Dagalo, said the mission of the Ethiopian envoy, Mahmoud Dirir, was to pave the way for resuming talks with the FDFC, “not to offer proposals for solutions.” “The mission of the Ethiopian mediator was limited to prepare the parties for negotiations. We did not agree on shares in the sovereign council. We do not accept prescriptions,” he said. Dagalo, better known as Hemedti , said the ruling military council did not oppose civilian participation in the future sovereign council — or that the FDFC might form the government. He added that the transitional legislative body “should be (formed) through elections.” He also said the military council decided to release all detained rebels, to pave the way for peace talks with rebel groups in the provinces. Dagalo is the leader of the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, which grew out of the notorious Janjaweed militias. The RSF led a vio-
lent campaign against insurgents in Darfur — and now stands accused of involvement in protester deaths in Sudan’s main cities. In a press conference on Sunday, the military council had said the previous deals with the protest leaders were invalid, given the changes on the ground in Sudan since talks collapsed in May. A spokesman for the council, Gen. Shams Eddin Kabashi, said: “The circumstances in which we reached such understandings … are not the same.” Previously, both sides had agreed on an interim legislative body and Cabinet formed by the protesters. They had still not reached agreement on the extent of the military’s role in the planned sovereign council, which would guide the nation throughout the threeyear transition period, when security forces launched the deadly clampdown on June 3. The movement has since tried different tactics — including a short-lived nationwide strike, and nighttime marches to keep up pressure on the military.
ORLANDO, Fla. — A Florida woman’s effort to protect herself from domestic violence has become a flashpoint in the debate over gun rights and victims’ safety. Courtney Irby gave her estranged husband’s guns to police after he was charged with domestic violenceaggravated battery, only to find herself arrested for theft. Now a Florida lawmaker and gun safety advocates are championing her cause, asking a state attorney on Monday drop the charges, while gun rights advocates want her prosecuted. Courtney Irby spent six days in jail on charges of armed burglary and grand theft after she retrieved the assault rifle and handgun from her husband’s apartment and gave them to the Lakeland Police. Joseph Irby was spending one day in jail at the time, accused of ramming into her car after a June 14 divorce hearing. After her husband’s arrest, Courtney Irby petitioned for a temporary injunction for protection, which was granted. Federal law prohibits people under a domestic violence restraining order from possessing guns, but it’s up to local law enforcement to enforce it, according to the Giffords Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence. Courtney Irby told police that she believed he wouldn’t turn in his guns himself, so she took action. According to her arrest report, she said she entered her husband’s apartment through a locked door without his permission and took the guns to a police station. “So you’re telling me you committed an armed burglary?” the officer asked her. “Yes, I am but he wasn’t going to turn them in so I am doing it,” the officer said she responded. Democratic State Rep. Anna Eskamani of Orlando tweeted that it’s “ridiculous” to arrest a woman in this kind of situation. She sent a letter Monday to State Attorney Brian Haas asking that Irby not be prosecuted. She cited research showing the presence of a gun in a domestic violence situation makes it five times more likely a woman will be murdered. “Ms. Irby was seeking help from the Lakeland Police Department and taking action to protect herself and her children,” Eskamani wrote. “Prosecuting Ms. Irby sets a scary precedent that if someone seeks help to escape abuse, they will be punished for it.” While federal law prohibits people under domestic violence restraining orders and convicted of domestic violence from possessing guns, local law enforcement and prosecutors don’t have the tools they need to enforce those restrictions, Eskamani said in her letter to the state attorney. “These loopholes are major contributors to the deadly relationship between domestic violence and firearms,” Eskamani said. Joseph Irby’s charges involve an altercation that began with a shouting match after the divorce hearing. According to his arrest report, they both got into their cars and then he used his vehicle to strike her back bumper several times, running her off the road. Courtney Irby told a responding officer that “she feared for her life,” his arrest report said. As Joseph Irby was being placed into a patrol car, he called her “a man hater,” the arrest report said. In requesting that she be released on bond, Courtney Irby’s attorney argued that she didn’t commit theft since she didn’t take the guns for her personal use and didn’t benefit by taking them.
Trump signs order imposing sanctions on Iran supreme leader WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Monday targeting Iran’s supreme leader and his associates with financial sanctions, the latest action the U.S. has taken to discourage Tehran from developing nuclear weapons and supporting militant groups. The sanctions follow Iran’s downing of a more than $100 million U.S. surveillance drone over the Strait of Hormuz. Trump pulled back from the brink of retaliatory military strikes on Iran last week, but is continuing his pressure campaign against the nation. “These measures represent a strong and proportionate response to Iran’s increasingly provocative actions,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office. “We will continue to increase pressure on Tehran until the regime abandons its dangerous activities and its aspirations, including the pursuit of nuclear weapons, increased enrichment of uranium, development of ballistic missiles, engagement and support for terrorism, fueling of foreign conflicts and belligerent acts directed against the United States and its allies.” Trump pulled the U.S. out of the nuclear pact that world powers made with Tehran in 2015. Other nations stayed in the deal, which eased sanctions on Iran in exchange for curbing its nuclear program. Trump called it a one-sided deal in Iran’s favor and re-imposed sanctions but says he wants to negotiate a different deal. Iran, which calls the sanctions “economic terrorism,” has thus far shown no interest in negotiating. The latest round of sanctions denies Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and senior military figures access to financial resources and blocks their access to any financial assets they have under U.S. jurisdiction. “For people who say these are just symbolic, that’s not the case at all,” Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said. “We’ve literally locked up tens and tens of billions of dollars.” Trump said the new sanctions are not only in response to the downing of the drone. The U.S. has blamed Iran for attacks on two oil tankers this month near the Strait of Hormuz. Citing those episodes and intelligence about other Iranian threats, the U.S. has sent an aircraft carrier to the Persian Gulf region and deployed additional troops alongside the tens of thousands already there. All this has raised fears that a miscalculation or further rise in tensions could push the U.S. and Iran into an open conflict 40 years after Tehran’s Islamic Revolution. — The Associated Press

Twins pitchers combine on no-hitter

Smith, Metz shut down Dimond By JEFF HELMINIAK Peninsula Clarion
There was no dogpile, no ice-speckled Gatorade shower. In fact, the only ice involved at all in the postgame “celebration” of the Post 20 Twins’ no-hitter vs. Dimond on Sunday at Coral Seymour Memorial Park was wrapped around the right knee of starting pitcher Logan Smith. The personality of a team comes from the top, and the Twins were mostly business Sunday, even after Smith and Harrison Metz combined to baffle the Lynx. “What can I say?” said Lance Coz, Twins general manager for the past 44 years, while sitting next to the dugout. “It was a great ballgame.” The Twins won their sixth straight game by taking the Lynx 5-0 in the league contest and 11-8 in the nonleague contest. The no-hitter was the first for the Twins since Joey Becher mystified Chugiak in July 2016. Post 20 improves to 4-2 in the league and 7-4 overall, while Dimond drops to 6-3 and 9-6. Twins coach Robb Quelland said having Coz in the dugout is a reminder of the Twins’ history of success, which includes four state championships, and how the Twins attained that success. Post 20 has always brought together players
from multiple high schools, with the team this year formed by Soldotna, Homer and Kenai Central. That means the coaching staff works hard to keep the emphasis on the team, not the individual. “For the last 2 1-2 to three weeks, we’ve really been stressing that individual team stats are not as important as the team win,” Quelland said. “We stress that to get these three schools to come together as a team.” To get the no-hitter took two pitchers who could not have had more different days emotionally. Smith, the starter, had soaring highs and crushing lows. Metz, the reliever, was as steady as the sun, blue skies and pleasant breeze permeating the field. After graduating from SoHi in 2018, Smith did not play baseball at all for a school this season, choosing to work and help Quelland coach at Soldotna High School. The tall right-hander always had bad knees from his history as a catcher. In April, he was lunging off first base while coaching when his right kneecap dislocated, slipping toward his fibula. “I didn’t think I would be able to play this season,” Smith said of his third tour with the Twins. Smith gradually got into shape, with the knee holding up. Wednesday, he

threw a bullpen session in Anchorage for a few college coaches and hit 87 mph with his fastball. The arsenal of pitches felt so good Smith is optimistic about playing for a college next season. He also had a rare boast for a friend. “I’m not gonna lie,” Smith said. “Two days ago, I told a buddy I was going to throw a no-hitter today. “I didn’t think it was going to happen, but it happened.” The first four innings went as planned, with Dimond having trouble getting any type of a read on Smith. “Logan pitched a great game,” Dimond coach Dan Montagna said. “He’s an accomplished pitcher. Give him credit. We’re young, and this is what happens sometimes.” In the bottom of the fourth inning, Smith came to the plate and everything changed. He twisted to foul an offering from Dimond starter Miah Enicx down the third-base line, dislocating the kneecap and leaving Smith on the ground yelling in pain. The kneecap popped back in on its own and Smith walked around, flexing the knee constantly, before returning to the plate to work a walk. “That’s just leadership and maturity,” Quelland said of the oldest player on the team. “We call him Father Time. “It would have been easy for him to roll over and sit in the dugout, but he’s the team leader, so he finished
that at-bat.” Not only that, but Smith returned to the mound in the top of the fifth. He walked the first batter he faced, obviously favoring the right leg, before Quelland pulled him. “I told coach I wanted another inning,” Smith said. “I walked the first guy and I knew what I needed to change. But he pulled me because he was looking out for me.” Smith was sore after the game, but with better braces and leg exercises, both Quelland and Smith are confident he can play out the season. Enter Metz, who also is in his third year with the Twins and will be a junior at Homer High School. No-hitter in progress. Team leader handing the ball off after writhing in pain in the dirt the inning before. It’s enough to make someone nervous. Just not Metz. “He’s not that big but pitches like somebody with a much bigger stature,” Quelland said of the righthander. Metz began mowing down Dimond batters — recording five of nine outs on strikeouts and allowing just one runner on an error — as if he had no idea a nohitter was going on. That’s because he had no idea a no-hitter was going on until a reporter told him after the game. “I just went up there throwing strikes,” Metz said. “I didn’t know we had
Oilers win Sunday, lose Monday Staff report Peninsula Clarion
The Peninsula Oilers defeated the Chugiak-Eagle River Chinooks 5-2 Sunday at Lee Jordan Field in Chugiak before dropping a 6-5 decision Monday. The Oilers started the road trip with four straight losses to the Mat-Su Miners by a combined score of 28-14. Peninsula was able to right the ship with a 6-5 victory over the Chinooks on Saturday and the win Sunday, but Monday means a .500 trip is no longer possible. The Oilers stop in Anchorage to play the Bucs at 7 p.m. today before taking Wednesday off and hosting the Anchorage Glacier Pilots at 7 p.m. Thursday. The Oilers are 7-11 in the Alaska Baseball League and stand in fourth place, 5.5 games behind the Anchorage Bucs. The Chinooks are
6-11, a half game behind the Oilers, in last place. Behind a 4 for 5 day from Ethan Patrick at the plate, the Oilers twice came back from one-run deficits to win Sunday. The Chinooks got to Oilers starter Eric Reardon for a run in the bottom of the second before Peninsula tied it in the fourth when an error by the Chinooks third baseman allowed Skyler Messinger to score. Chugiak-Eagle River came right back in the bottom of the fourth to take a 2-1 lead. Reardon would leave after six innings, giving up two runs — one earned — on two hits while walking four and striking out three. The Oilers were able to have success against the Chinooks bullpen after starter Tyler O’Clair departed after five innings. O’Clair yielded four hits and the unearned run.
In the seventh, the Oilers took a 3-2 lead on losing pitcher Brian Cardone. With runners on first and third and two outs, Patrick came through with a clutch double to score Connor McCord and Calvin Farris. That would be enough for the Oilers bullpen, as Steven Ordorica, Farris and McCord each pitched an inning of scoreless relief, with Ordorica registering the win and McCord notching the save. Peninsula added insurance runs in the eighth and ninth innings. In the eighth inning, Connor McCord singled in Camden Vasquez. In the ninth, Patrick reached on another double and was singled in by Travis Bohall. Cardone gave up two runs on four hits in 1 2-3 innings, while fellow reliever Corbin Barker also gave up two runs on four hits. McCord was 2 for 4 for the Oilers, while Farris
was 2 for 5. Vasquez, John Mackay, Drew Thorpe and Bohall added hits in the Oilers’ 12-hit attack. Mason Corbett was 2 for 2 for the Chinooks. Monday’s game went back and forth. The Oilers led 1-0 after one inning and 3-2 after two innings. The Chinooks came back to lead 4-3 after four, the Oilers tied it in the top of the sixth, then Chugiak tacked on runs in the seventh and eighth for a 6-4 lead. Patrick started the ninth for the Oilers with a double, then McCord singled him in, but the rally stopped there. Heath Olive took the loss, giving up two runs — one earned — in two innings. Tyler Wynkoop earned the win for Chugiak-Eagle River, while Daniel Freeman got the save. McCord was 3 for 4 for the Oilers, while Travis Bohall was 2 for 3 and Vasquez was 2 for 5.
that going.” Believable? “Oh, 100 percent,” Smith said. “He’s definitely the type who wouldn’t know what was happening.” Metz’s ability to focus on the moment and worry about nothing else — he also laid down a successful safety squeeze in the game — is why Smith felt good about the no-hitter’s chances. That, and Metz’s totally nasty curveball. “I was pretty confident we would get it,” Smith said. But no no-hitter comes without its drama — well, in this case, additional drama — and that moment came in the top of the seventh, when Dimond cleanup man Eric Galosich lofted a ball to short right-center field. Right fielder Tanner Ussing ranged to his right and made the diving catch. Ussing had told Smith before the game he’d be diving for balls that day, and did just that when it mattered most. “When it went up in the air, it was in the back of my mind that this could be the no-hitter,” Smith said. “He came through and caught it.” The last two outs came via strikeout and a cushy fly to center field, sparking the business-handshake-heavy “celebration.” On offense, the Twins continued to manufacture runs, scoring five times on just three hits. They even survived the seven strikeouts of crafty Dimond lefty Enicz, who went the distance and gave up five runs
— just three earned. “We get on, get over and get in,” Metz said. “We’re using small ball — stealing and bunting a lot.” David Michael, Mose Hayes and Davey Belger had hits for the Twins, while Jeremy Kupferschmid, Michael and Hayes had runs, and Ussing, Belger and Metz had RBIs. In the 11-8 nonconference win, Post 20 scratched out all its runs on just four hits, taking advantage of six Dimond errors. The Twins made five errors. ”We committed more errors than were noted,” Quelland said. “It was a typical summer game after eating and after both teams had a hard game before the nonconference game.” Quelland did see some things he liked, particularly on the mound. Seth Adkins went two innings and gave up three runs — two earned — on two hits, Ussing went three innings and gave up five runs — two earned — on three hits, and Davey Belger went two scoreless innings, yielding two hits. On offense, Kupferschmid was 2 for 2 with two RBIs and a run, Metz had a hit and a run, and Michael had a hit. Chris Jaime and Jacob Boze each scored twice for the Twins. The Twins now travel to Kodiak for two games Thursday and two games Friday. “We’re feeling pretty good,” Smith said. “We need a couple of timely hits and we’ll be about the best team out there.”
Area athletes fare well at skyrace Staff report Peninsula Clarion
Taylor Ostrander, a 2012 graduate of Kenai Central High School, headed up several impressive performances by athletes with Kenai Peninsula connections at the Broken Arrow Skyrace, a series of races held Friday through Sunday in Squaw Valley, California. Ostrander, now of Boise, Idaho, competed in the 11-kilometer race Saturday and took second among women and 11th overall. She was clocked at 1 hour, 5 minutes and 36 seconds, while winner Jennifer Schmidt of Davis, California, won at 1:04:34. The race starts at 6,200 feet above sea level
and eventually reaches a height of 7,500 feet above sea level. There is a total of about 2,200 feet of elevation gain and loss. There were 226 finishers in the race. Ostrander attended Willamette University in Salem, Oregon, and made appearances in eight NCAA Division III national championships there — four in crosscountry and four in the 3,000-meter steeplechase in outdoor track and field. Denali Strabel, a 2008 graduate of Seward High School, finished fifth among women and 26th overall in the 26-kilometer race, which was held Sunday. Strabel, now of Anchorage, finished in 2:34:05 to become one of See RACE, page A8

five women to break the previous course record. The victory went to Lindsay Webster of Ontario, Canada, in 2:22:35. The race also starts at 6,200 feet above sea level and tops out at 8,800 feet above sea level. There is 5,000 feet of elevation gain and loss. Strabel is a perennial contender in the Mount Marathon Race, held July 4 in Seward up and down the 3,022-foot peak overlooking town. She has finished in the top five the past four years, achieving her best time and place in 2018, when she was second in 52:00. Boise’s Conor Deal, who played for the Kenai River Brown Bears for three seasons from 2011 to 2014, finished 21st overall and 17th among men in the 26-kilometer race. Deal clocked in at 2:32:33, while Andrew Douglas of Edinburgh, Great Britain, took the win by nearly 10 minutes at 1:56:31. Deal also had his best place and time at Mount Marathon last year, taking 18th in 51:08. There were 424 finishers in the 26-kilometer race. In its fourth edition, the Broken Arrow Skyrace totaled 1,500 competitors across all the races. There also was a vertical kilometer Friday and a 52K, which was two laps of the 26K, Saturday. The Broken Arrow event is growing in numbers and international prestige, having bumped up from 500 competitors in 2017.
Italy to host 2026 Winter Games LAUSANNE, Switzerland (AP) — Riding a wave of widespread Italian enthusiasm to be an Olympic host, Milan and Cortina d’Ampezzo won the vote Monday to stage the 2026 Winter Games. International Olympic Committee members voted 47-34 for the long-favored Milan-Cortina bid over Stockholm-Are from Sweden that also included a bobsled track in Latvia. Milan-Cortina’s jubilant delegation broke into chants of “Italia! Italia!” when the result was announced, giving the Alpine nation a second Winter Games in 20 years. “I’m really emotional,” Italian Olympic president Giovanni Malago said, close to tears at the winner’s news conference. “It’s a very important result, not only for me but the whole country.” Italy will get a third Winter Games, after Turin hosted in 2006 and ski resort Cortina staged in 1956. Sweden never hosted the Winter Games and was sent to an eighth loss in bidding in the past 41 years. A lack of enthusiasm for the project in Sweden — rating 28% below the Italians in the IOC’s own polls — was a decisive factor.

US women topple Spain REIMS, France — Spain tested the United States like no other team at the Women’s World Cup. The U.S. looked disorganized at times facing Spain’s aggressive and physical style before pulling out a 2-1 victory Monday night. It could have been just what the Americans needed: France is waiting. Megan Rapinoe converted a pair of penalty kicks to set up the United States’ much-anticipated quarterfinal rendezvous with the hosts. The tense match was knotted at 1 until Rapinoe’s second penalty put the defending champions ahead in the 75th minute.

CROMWELL, Conn. — Chez Reavie won the Travelers Championship for his second PGA Tour title and first in 11 years, closing with a 1-under 69 for a four-stroke victory over Keegan Bradley and Zack Sucher. The 37-year-old Reavie, also the 2008 Canadian Open winner, finished at 17-under 263 at TPC River Highlands a week after tying for third in the U.S. Open at Pebble Beach. Reavie took a six-stroke lead into the round after a shooting a 63 on Saturday. But Bradley chipped away and got within a stroke on the par-4 15th when he made a 7 1/2-foot birdie putt after Reavie missed an 11-footer. Reavie put the tournament away on the par-4 17th, making a 14-foot birdie putt, while Bradley three-putted for a double bogey.

Today in History Today is Tuesday, June 25, the 176th day of 2019. There are 189 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On June 25, 1950, war broke out in Korea as forces from the communist North invaded the South. On this date: In 1788, Virginia ratified the U.S. Constitution. In 1876, Lt. Col. Colonel George A. Custer and his 7th Cavalry were wiped out by Sioux and Cheyenne Indians in the Battle of the Little Bighorn in Montana. In 1910, President William Howard Taft signed the White-Slave Traffic Act, more popularly known as the Mann Act, which made it illegal to transport women across state lines for “immoral” purposes. In 1943, Congress passed, over President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s veto, the Smith-Connally Anti-Strike Act, which allowed the federal government to seize and operate privately owned war plants facing labor strikes. In 1947, “The Diary of a Young Girl,” the personal journal of Anne Frank, a German-born Jewish girl hiding with her family from the Nazis in Amsterdam during World War II, was first published. In 1962, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that recitation of a state-sponsored prayer in New York State public schools was unconstitutional. In 1967, the Beatles performed and recorded their new song “All You Need Is Love” during the closing segment of “Our World,” the first-ever live international telecast which was carried by satellite from 14 countries. In 1973, former White House Counsel John W. Dean began testifying before the Senate Watergate Committee, implicating top administration officials, including President Richard Nixon as well as himself, in the Watergate scandal and cover-up. In 1996, a truck bomb killed 19 Americans and injured hundreds at a U.S. military housing complex in Saudi Arabia. In 1998, the U.S. Supreme Court rejected a line-item veto law as unconstitutional, and ruled that HIV-infected people were protected by the Americans with Disabilities Act. In 2003, the Recording Industry Association of America threatened to sue hundreds of individual computer users who were illegally sharing music files online. In 2013, Democratic Texas State Senator Wendy Davis began a one-woman filibuster to block a GOP-led effort to impose stringent new abortion restrictions across the nation’s second-most populous state. (Republicans voted to end the filibuster minutes before midnight, sparking a chaotic scene with demonstrators who succeeded in forcing lawmakers to miss the deadline for passing the bill.) Ten years ago: Death claimed Michael Jackson, the “King of Pop,” in Los Angeles at age 50 and actress Farrah Fawcett in Santa Monica, California, at age 62. North Korea vowed to enlarge its atomic arsenal and warned of a “fire shower of nuclear retaliation” in the event of a U.S. attack, as the regime marked the 1950 outbreak of the Korean War. Five years ago: In an emphatic defense of privacy in the digital age, a unanimous Supreme Court ruled that police generally may not search the cellphones of people they arrest without first getting search warrants. Tim Lincecum (LIHN’-sih-kuhm) pitched his second no-hitter against the San Diego Padres in less than a year, allowing only one runner and leading the San Francisco Giants to a 4-0 win. The NFL agreed to remove a $675 million cap on damages from thousands of concussion-related claims after a federal judge questioned whether there would be enough money to cover as many as 20,000 retired players. One year ago: Facing rising costs from new tariffs, Harley-Davidson announced that it would begin shifting the production of motorcycles sold in Europe from the U.S. to factories overseas; President Donald Trump accused the company of waving a “White Flag” in the tariff dispute between the U.S. and the European Union. Britain’s Prince William arrived in Israel for the first-ever official visit there by a member of the British royal family, ending the monarchy’s mostly hands-off approach to one of the world’s most sensitive regions. Today’s Birthdays: Actress June Lockhart is 94. Civil rights activist James Meredith is 86. Author-activist Larry Kramer is 84. Rhythm and blues singer Eddie Floyd is 82. Actress Barbara Montgomery is 80. Actress Mary Beth Peil (peel) is 79. Basketball Hall of Famer Willis Reed is 77. Singer Carly Simon is 74.

Slide phone user is irritated by the pressure to upgrade is why so many feel compelled to buy one as soon as a new one is released. However, while that dreaded question may be posed in terms of when you plan to buy a new phone, I suspect what the askers really mean is, Abigail Van Buren “When are you going to make it easier for us to communicate with you?” If you shut your phone off and use it only when you wish to use it, you won’t be alone in the practice. While it may frustrate those who want immediate gratification, it will allow you to manage your time without unwelcome interruptions. DEAR ABBY: Last night my wife and I, both retired M.D.s, met our daughter “Jackie,” her wife, “Kelly,” and Jackie’s daughter for dinner at a restaurant to celebrate Jackie’s 50th birthday. Kelly had called a couple of weeks ago to invite us.

HHHHH Your creativity emerges when you’re chatting and brainstorming with several people. Your sense of humor emerges when you most want to deal with a financial matter involving a loved one or partner. Tonight: Enjoy the moment. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH You cannot deal with another person until you’ve processed a difficult situation that involves an authority figure. You could feel pressured by a loved one who clearly expresses what he or she wants and expects. Tonight: Be available. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Before you tackle a hassle that could come up, you might need to detach. When you look at the issue, your reactions might be off-kilter. Once in a while, you might need to slow down and respond to your feelings. Tonight: Make the most of the moment. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH Break through a problem; make the most of a moment of levity and cleverness. You might be amazed at how easily you can clear through a problem by relaxing and flowing. You seem to help others relax. Tonight: Go for adventure. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Let a loved one make a difference. You might judge that what he or she is doing is a little out of whack. You might not know what’s best or how to tell this person that you think he or she is off point. Tonight: Head home; enjoy a special dinner. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH You’ll probably express the more academic or serious facets of your personality. After seeking responses regarding a day-to-day problem, you might feel safer. You want to change the situation ASAP. You’ve waited a while to eliminate the problem. Tonight: Off doing errands. Catch up on another person’s news, too! PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH You see a financial matter far differently than a child or loved one does. You might not be as realistic as you think you are. You have a very idealistic side to your personality. Don’t let that impair your vision regarding finances. Tonight: Please note that fun doesn’t have to cost you.

TEXT, PLEASE Dear Heloise: When I’m picking up my friends, I text them instead of calling them, honking the horn or ringing the doorbell. This will keep the dog quiet and the baby asleep. -- Devin W. in Pennsylvania TECH TALK: DRY EYE Dear Heloise: I just came from the eye doctor; here’s what she told me about my dry eyes: They can come from allergies, diabetes, meds and eyestrain. My diet, air pollution, how many candles on my birthday cake and my lifestyle all can contribute to dry eye. Also, I’ve read that technology is a leading cause of eyestrain. When I’m at the computer or on my phone, I’m blinking a lot less than avearge, which is about twice that. More time between blinks allows more time for eye fluid to evaporate. Talk to your eye doctor about eyestrain; mine recommended warm cloths on my eyes, some moisturizing drops and a short break every 15 minutes while working on the computer. -- Harry S. in New York TO BUY OR BYE-BYE? Dear Heloise: I buy a lot of items through those neighborhood “swap meet” apps. My most important questions: Where did you get this item, and what can you tell me about this item? If the person hesitates, I’ll feel uncomfortable about the transaction. Naturally, I don’t want to buy or trade for stolen merchandise. -- Julie W. in Texas

Jacqueline Bigar’s Stars HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Tuesday, June 25, 2019: This year, you often feel conflicted. You have the moody temperament of your sign, but if a cause is appealing, you become a proactive pioneer. If single, juggling these energies could confuse someone you date or meet this year. Try to be clearer. If you’re attached, you and your partner might not always be in sync, but you have some meaningful exchanges. Your mutual caring shows. For advice, avoid ARIES. 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 feel conflict between what you innately want to do and how you want to be perceived. A domestic matter or family member might need some attention. Don’t put this situation on the back burner. Tonight: On the way home, buy a card or some other token of affection. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH In order to have a slower day, you might want to cancel an appointment or two. You have a lot on your mind that needs handling or at least some thought. Make sure to think this issue through. Tonight: Make it early. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH You could be on your way to clearly expressing what you expect. A meeting could be particularly important for aligning your goals with another person’s. As a result, you’ll find that others will go along with your ideas far more easily. Tonight: Pay bills, then decide. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH You’re emotional; no one can deny what’s happening around you. You might feel pressured by all the responsibility that you carry. Lighten up; have a long-overdue conversation. If asked, another person will pitch in. Tonight: In the limelight. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH Beam in more of what you want. You’ll have a difficult time convincing someone that what you want is possible. The best way to prove your point is going off and manifesting what you want. Express your knowledge and belief in the power of manifesting. Tonight: For now, lie low. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

My wife and I pay the check when we meet Jackie and her family to eat, which is usually brunch on Sunday, but because Kelly invited us, we were unsure whether we should last night. (Our son gets upset if we offer to pay in similar circumstances.) My wife asked Kelly at the table if we could pay for our dinners. We had already presented Jackie with a birthday card with a check for $1,000 enclosed. Jackie texted us today, incensed that we did not pick up the check. Should we have? Jackie is a Ph.D. and makes a comfortable living. Her wife is an Ivy League graduate. -- BAFFLED IN THE SOUTH DEAR BAFFLED: Your daughter’s manners are appalling. Her wife invited you and your wife to the dinner, which made you HER guests. It was sweet (and generous) of your wife to ask if the two of you could pay for your meals -- in addition to the very generous gift you had given your daughter. If apologies are in order, the people who should receive them are you and your wife.

DEAR ABBY: My friends and family constantly ask me when I plan to get a new phone. I have a slide phone. I used to have a flip phone, which also drew the same questions. I am not a phone person. I have a land line at home with answering/messaging in place. I am sick of the questions about my phone. I don’t want a smartphone. I have my little phone for emergencies, not so everyone I know can reach me immediately. I wouldn’t dream of asking people when they are going to get a better TV, newer shoes, a more expensive car, a bigger house, a more expensive handbag. Why is it that people feel the need to shame me about my phone? It is to the point now that I may turn it off and turn it on only when I want to use it. It is becoming difficult for me to remain civil about this subject. I envision myself throwing it in the trash can next time someone asks. -- LIKE THE OLD DAYS DEAR LIKE THE OLD DAYS: Some people view having the latest model of cellphone as a status symbol, which

Invasive goldfish draw concern from wildlife officials The Associated Press
ANCHORAGE, Alaska — A murky pond in the middle of Anchorage has some unwanted guests. Cuddy Pond, near the city’s main library, is home to dozens of goldfish, The Anchorage Daily News reports . Wildlife officials say they likely were put there by pet owners who didn’t want to kill them. State officials classify goldfish as an invasive species. The aquarium pets are domesticated carp originally bred in China. Goldfish can carry diseases and bacteria that harm the ecosystem and other marine animals and among other
misplaced aquatic species causing damage in Alaska. “This is a real clear example here in the heart of Anchorage — here’s all these goldfish, over 150 of them I counted last week, swimming around,” said Krissy Dunker, an invasive species research biologist for the Alaska Department of Fish and Game. The department has increased efforts to investigate how invasions start, Dunker said, using sophisticated forensic technology in genetic sampling and water chemistry. Northern pike have decimated salmon and trout populations in southcentral Alaska and have cost mil-

lions to kill. Officials documented largemouth bass in Sand Lake, red-ear slider turtles in other Anchorage lakes and creeks and crayfish in Kodiak. State officials eradicated muskellunge from the Kenai Peninsula and worked with geneticists in Wisconsin and Minnesota to trace the fish back to the Midwest, Dunker said. Releasing non-native fish in Alaska can result in a criminal misdemeanour charge and a $10,000 fine because of the ecological and financial consequences. Fish and Game officials have been aware of the goldfish in Cuddy Pond since at least spring 2018. Gold-

fective, Dunker said. Officials would like to find out if the Cuddy Pond goldfish are reproducing and where they came from. The department also wants to collect reports of wildlife that looks out of place, Dunker said. “Obviously, those big, orange fish by the Loussac Library don’t look right,” she said. Goldfish are not the only unnatural wildlife occurrence at Cuddy Park. The park is home to flocks of ducks and geese. Some overwinter because people feed them over the pleas of the Anchorage Waterways Council, which says it harms birds.
Dunker says it’s more humane to euthanize unwanted pet fish than to release them into the wild, where they’re likely to starve in winter. “People think they’re doing something kind for the pet, but you’re actually causing it to suffer,” Dunker said. At least one Anchorage specialty fish store takes unwanted fish pets. “We will always take in fish, no questions asked,” said Cody Hall, a manager at Alaska Coral and Fish. The store tries to find unwanted fish new homes. “We’re sort of like the pound for fish tanks,” Hall said.

Meet Winter My name is Winter. I am a 6 month old female. I have lived with children but find them to be scary so I try to avoid them when possible. I like to ponce on things and sometimes play rough. I like to have my head, ears and back petted. I don’t mind being picked up when I want to.
fish also have been found in Jewel, Cheney and Taku lakes, though there’s no evidence they reproduced, Dunker said. A population was also found in Gustavus in southeast Alaska. Fish and Game employees used nets to sample goldfish from Cuddy Pond. The orange, white and red fish had grown as long as 10 inches (25.4 centimetres). A pathology lab bested them for parasites and disease. The department last year tried using electroshock equipment, which sends pulses through the water, to stun fish and make them easier to catch. The fish simply swam deeper and the equipment was not ef-

Meet Tank This boy has a sad story and all he wants is a new home where he will never have to be stuck on the end of a chain again. He can be submissive at times and he might be better in a home with no children. For the person living away from people he is going to be a great dog. He just gets overwhelmed and then he can act out. He really just wants someone to himself.
