Medicaid dental cuts a pain to some ANCHORAGE — Budget vetoes by Alaska Gov. Mike Dunleavy eliminated Medicaid dental coverage for adults — a $27 million cut that is having an impact.

KTUU reports that Michael Shelden had plans to get dentures after having all his teeth pulled following years of dental pain. The plan fell through after the governor’s veto, and Shelden said he can’t afford the $2,000 down payment to proceed with his plan.

“I cried,” he said. “I wake up and I cry at night.”

Now, he is only eating soft food such as soup and baked potatoes.

The Alaska Dental Society calls the budget cut disappointing, saying the coverage aims to treat problems before they reach costly proportions.

“By treating cavities and gum disease early Medicaid recipients are able to avoid more costly treatment or if the cavity reaches the stage of causing an infection possibly a trip to an ER,” the group said.

While announcing his budget vetoes in June, Dunleavy said his goal of restoring a full dividend payment to Alaskans from the Alaska Permanent Fund could help them pay for some affected services.

“This budget touches practically every Alaskan,” he said at the time. “It’s not necessarily going to be easy, we never said it would be, but we do believe that in some of these cases a full statutory PFD could mitigate some of the issues.”

Shelden said he was already counting on a full dividend to help pay for rent, food and other expenses.

14 cities in state have officers with records ANCHORAGE — At least 14 cities in Alaska have employed police officers whose criminal records should have prevented them from being hired under state law, the Anchorage Daily News and ProPublica reported Saturday.

The news organizations said they found more than 34 officers who should have been ineligible for these jobs. In all but three cases, the police hires were never reported by the city governments to the state’s Department of Public Safety, as See news, Page A3

‘Reverse sweep,’ capital budget bill OK’d

By Ben Hohenstatt Juneau Empire

A 19-0 Senate vote Saturday could mean big things for the state’s financial picture depending on what the House and Gov. Mike Dunleavy do next.

The Senate approved Senate Bill 2002, which funds the capital budget and includes “reverse sweep” language. The sweep is an

annual bookkeeping oddity in which hundreds of millions of dollars in various state accounts are “swept” into the Constitutional Budget Reserve.

Typically, a “reverse sweep” moves the money back into the original accounts, but the Legislature did not approve a reverse sweep when it sent a bill to the governor.

“This bill is a do-over, it’s a reset if you will,” said Sen. Natasha von Imhof,

R-Anchorage. “I urge a ‘yes’ vote on this bill.”

Her fellow senators did exactly that.

The House Finance Committee voted Saturday to move the bill out of committee, which sets up Sunday as a likely date of a vote. The House is set to adjourn at 1 p.m., and the Senate at 2 p.m.

Every meeting and session held Saturday primarily focused on the

reverse sweep aspect of the bill.

Sen. Bill Wielechowski, D-Anchorage, said on the Senate floor Saturday the impacts of that weren’t fully understood at the time.

Historically, funds that provide college scholarships and subsidize electricity have not been swept, but the Dunleavy administration is examining See sweep, Page A3

Skill sets proudly displayed Disability Pride Celebration on Saturday draws a big crowd

By Brian Mazurek Peninsula Clarion

Just because someone is in a wheelchair doesn’t mean they can’t compete in a good old-fashioned cake walk. This Saturday, more than a hundred central peninsula residents turned out to show off their pride and support for their disabled friends and family during the second annual Disability Pride Celebration in Soldotna Creek Park. Organizers Nikki Marcano, from Frontier Community Services, and Maggie Winston, of the Independent Living Center,

hosted the event. Winston said that attendance in just the first hour had tripled from the previous year.

Winston and Marcano said that a number of local businesses and organizations donated their services for the day and helped make it a success, including Geneva Woods Medical Supplies, Snappy Turtle Photobooths, Consumer Direct, Riverside Assisted Living, The Kenai Peninsula Borough School District, Coca Cola, the Peninsula Points on Prevention Coalition, Hope Community Resources and the local Zumba group.

As local band Hot Mess took the

stage to play some classic rock ‘n’ roll, kids and adults alike spent the day enjoying games and activities.

The priority for the organizers was to make everything as accessible as possible, and volunteers were stationed at each activity to assist anyone who needed a little help. There was a slip-and-slide equipped with inflatable pool toys, a face-painting booth manned

8 years for drug, moneylaundering scheme

A longtime Soldotna bookstore has joined forces with a revamped natural foods market to prove that businesses can be environmentally friendly and successful.

Soldotna’s River City Books and speciality store Lucy’s Market recently moved to a new spot — just down the road from Walgreens, alongside Kenai River Brewing — that houses a building designed for environmental sustainability.

River City has been around for decades — it will be celebrating its 20-year anniversary next month — as a favorite spot for local bibliophiles. When the store’s lease at its previous location on East Redoubt next door to the Fred Meyer went unrenewed, it was time to look for a new home, owner Peggy Mullen said.

A man from Maryland is dead and his child is in critical condition after a floatplane accident near the mouth of Tutka Bay, across Kachemak Bay from Homer, on Friday morning.

Joseph Patanella, 57, was found dead on arrival to South Peninsula Hospital just before noon Friday, according to Alaska State Troopers and SPH Spokesperson Derotha Ferraro. He, his wife and his three children were aboard the de Havilland DHC-2 Beaver floatplane along with an adult male relative when it suffered an unknown accident while trying to take off near Tutka Bay. Petty Officer Amanda Norcross with the U.S. Coast Guard 17th District said representatives of Tutka Bay Lodge reported the accident to the Coast Guard. The family was staying at the lodge as guests, the Associated Press reported.

“Initial reports, they stated that the aircraft was conducting a departure in the middle of the (Tutka) bay,” Norcross said.

The plane then “aborted the takeoff,” she said, and never actually left the water, according to what was reported to the Coast Guard.

Alaska State Troopers responded along with members of the Homer Volunteer Fire Department in the trooper patrol vessel Augustine and removed the six passengers and pilot from the plane. Once transported back to the Homer Harbor, they were all taken to South Peninsula Hospital by ambulances from

Rows of artisian cheeses sit on display in Lucy’s Market in Soldotna.

She decided to relocate to land that was once a farm for the Mullen family, which then turned it into a laundromat business and then a horse pasture for her sister. The plot of land went unused for years and was overgrown with birch and willow trees.

Now, the once-empty plot features a storefront with a sleek look new.

With large, white letters adorning its side, the building faces traffic at the Kenai Spur and Sterling highways — giving passersby an invitation to step in.

“Even though we’re not directly on the highway, we’re directly visible,” said Kelsey Shields, owner of Lucy’s See relocate, Page A2

A Sterling man has been sentenced to eight years in prison for his role in a drug and money laundering conspiracy, according to a Friday press release from the U.S. District Attorney’s Office.

Mark Norman Hanes, 52, was sentenced to eight years in prison followed by three years of supervised release for his role in distributing methamphetamine and heroin throughout Southcentral Alaska. Documents filed in the case between mid-2014 and Jan. 14, 2015 show that individuals in Anchorage supplied Hanes with the drugs, driving to meet him near his home in Sterling on at least two occasions to deliver product.

Payment for those drugs would then be made through deposits into bank accounts connected to See prison, Page A3

Fairbanks printmaker melds mediums in wood, paint

By Erin McGroarty Associated Press

FAIRBANKS — Local Fairbanks artist and printmaker Sara Tabbert was not an artistic kid, she said. But one wouldn’t guess that by taking a look around her 20-by-20-foot cabin studio tucked away in the black spruce forests of Goldstream Valley. Painted wood panels and framed prints line the walls, two print presses wait ready for new material and a worktable coated in wood carving tools stands to one side of the room.

“I was not the typical story of the kid who always did art,” Tabbert said with a laugh. “I played violin and was pretty involved with that, and then, about half way through college, I kind of hit a point where I didn’t like what I was doing.”

In the midst of change with a hint of indecision, Tabbert returned to Fairbanks where her passion for printmaking sprang to life after an unexpected drawing class at the University of Alaska Fairbanks.

“I was not particularly good at it, but it was the most interesting and the most challenging thing I’d ever done,” she said. “I ran into printmaking fairly soon after that and when I went back to the college I was attending, I fairly quickly fell into the print shop.”

Tabbert said she was immediately drawn to the process of printmaking.

“I also feel that with printmaking

Printmaking artist Sara Tabbert poses in her studio in Fairbanks on July 12.

Tabbert says she was not an artistic kid. Her passion for printmaking came after a drawing class at the University of Alaska Fairbanks.

there’s that element of surprise where you’re doing something to this thing,” she said, gesturing to a wood block. “And then you print it, and this is your piece of work — and until you go through that process of running the print, you’re never sure sometimes it’s a really great surprise.”

Many of her prints depict micro views of nature, often at a point of transition.

“I’m really interested at looking closely and looking carefully,” Tabbert said. “I think a lot of things I also am looking at are things where the natural world is working

on itself. The peeled bark, the piece of wood that’s in a lake and decaying, the alder that’s infested with fungus. There’s something about that transition or transformation of one thing or another.”

Tabbert was born and raised in Fairbanks but left to attend college and to begin her career as an artist before returning to her hometown in 2000.

Since then she’s made a name for herself as a locally renowned printmaker, but only in the past few years has she expanded her practice to include actual wood pieces.

For Tabbert, while she’s not a

huge fan of painting, her carved and painted wood panels are more akin to printmaking.

“I would definitely still call myself a printmaker, in that all of the work that I do has kind of grown out of that,” she said. “I’ve been doing a lot more work lately that has to do just with wood rather than printing on paper … relief carved pieces. They look a lot like a block print. Same style, same carving tools, a lot of the technique is the same. People really respond to the texture and the tactile quality of that.”

The process begins similarly to how a print would be born a carved wood block. But instead of coating in ink before running through the press with a sheet of paper, Tabbert paints the wood directly. The result is a vibrant, multidimensional piece with intriguing texture as if the tree bark depicted in the painting were coming to life.

“I am not a painter. If you give me a paint brush and a blank canvas, it will be a disaster,” Tabbert said with a laugh. “But there was something about it, that is enough like a print at least in having an element of graphic structure where I seem to be able to figure it out.”

But with the arts falling prey to Gov. Mike Dunleavy’s collection of more than $444 million in operating budget vetoes, Tabbert sees the interconnection of Alaska’s art world under more threat than she can remember.

“I’m really worried,” Tabbert said.

Nikiski firefighter Stephen Hartley steps up to the plate during the third annual Guns and Hoses charity baseball game Friday at Coral Seymour Memorial Park in Kenai. Local law enforcement and firefighters went head-to-head Friday night to raise money for the Nikiski Children’s Fund. The firefighters from Nikiski and Kenai put up a valiant effort, but the boys in blue ultimately won the game 6-5. Bailey Epperheimer, executive director for the Nikiski Children’s Fund, said that they were able to raise over $1,800 on Friday night, the most amount of money raised by the nonprofit from a single event.

Market. “It’s a lot safer getting in and out than the last place we were at.

“I actually expected the opposite, I expected Wednesdays to be slow … that hasn’t been the case, thankfully, for us.”

Although the spot is just a stone’s throw away from the store’s old location, the new store building has gotten some major upgrades.

Mullen said was tired of operating out of someone else’s building and “using imagination to fix it up,” and she wanted to build an environmentally responsible site.

So she asked around for the best environmental architect.

“The name that kept floating to the top was a gal in Anchorage named Petra Sattler Smith,” Mullen said, referring to the owner of Lumen Design in Anchorage. “If I was going to build something new, I wanted to do it properly.”

The building features large windows that allow plenty of sunlight in, an indoor ventilation system that circulates air efficiently and LED lighting on the ceiling. There are 23 panels installed by Anchorage Solar on the southwest side of the

building that soak up energy from the sun, with additional panels on the roof.

In a spring report, Anchorage Solar reported that the panels could see a carbon offset of more than 200,000 pounds over 30 years.

Mullen said that carbon footprint of the business was something she wanted to limit as much as possible.

“If you’ve lived in Alaska for a while, and have paid attention, you’ve noticed the changes,” she said.

Mullen said the amount of energy harvested by the solar panels is enough to break even on the store energy bill. The long summer days supply enough solar energy to power the business for the winter season, she said.

Mullen said a “buyback” power meter attached to the back of the building has shown that River City Books is providing more power than it uses.

“Our last bill, we were not paying anything,” Mullen said. “In fact, we’re building to our January drop.”

Mullen was the first owner of Lucy’s Market, which was originally named Gourmet Garden. It was later retooled as Totally Radish by another local business owner, before Shields took over just over a year ago.

“Kelsey has just made it

leaps and bounds better,” Mullen said. “She is really smart and capable of doing a good job.”

As majority owner of Lucy’s Market, Shields said her floor space has tripled in size with the move.

“I love it so far,” she said.

“We’re in an incredible building. I have a great landlord (Mullens) and I’m very thankful for that. It seems really well received by the public.”

The market/bakery, whose title Shields said comes from a pet name her father gave her as a child, has emerged as a unique spot that caters to people looking for a natural foods selection. Shields said she got her start in the wholesale baking business at a younger age, creating muffins and cookies and selling them to various local coffee carts.

“It became more and more apparent that a lot of people have poor selection of options around here,” Shields said. “So we try to satisfy that market.”

Lucy’s also offers a good selection of gluten-free and vegan options, as well as artisanal cheeses. Even though she sells somewhat specialized products, Shields said she tries to cater to “hopefully everyone.”

“I’d say people who generally consider themselves

“I came back here, I won’t say on a whim, but I definitely came back to Fairbanks to give it a try and see if I can make a career as an artist in Fairbanks, and it’s exceeded my expectations. I am concerned both with the hit on the university and the Alaska State Council on the Arts, those are the two things that I looked at when I came back. I thought those were two good indications that this is a state that takes the arts seriously.”

For now, Tabbert said she will continue to create art and support her fellow artists in the hopes that those who pull the purse strings for the state of Alaska will recognize the importance of the arts and restore vital funding for organizations, museums and communities as a whole.

“There’s a lot that we have yet to see,” Tabbert said, hopeful. “But I would hate to have to advise the next generation of artists that maybe this isn’t the right place.”

Ultimately, for Tabbert, the draw to art revolves around the ability to communicate through imagery.

“I am somewhat of a reserved person. I’m not someone who’s particularly effusive or outgoing,” Tabbert said. “But I think my visual work is a way that I can talk to people. This is another avenue of communication and I can point people in the direction of things I think are interesting or important, and it’s also a way to open up a conversation or a dialogue.”

foodies,” she said. “We have a strangely diverse customer base that we offer items to.”

Shields said her business focuses on artisanal and gourmet cheeses, which can only be sourced from Outside businesses that create handmade, smallbatch cheese. Lucy’s also features a cured meat selection, hard-to-find grocery items, sandwiches, soups, salads and fresh baked bread loaves.

Patanella’s wife was flown to Providence Medical Center in Anchorage with two of their children, one of whom troopers said is in critical condition. The third child was treated and released from the hospital, according to Ferraro. The plane’s pilot, Engjell Berisha, was also treated and released.

The adult male relative was injured in the accident and remains in stable condition at the hospital, Ferraro said in an email.

Chris Fischer, a Homer resident, was riding his bike on the Homer Spit at the time when local ambulances responded. He said he and others heard sirens while they were on the back side of the Homer Harbor, and saw ambulances staging near the harbor’s load and launch ramp.

“We figured something bad must have happened,” Fischer said.

Fischer said he waited at a bench near the ramp, and later saw a boat come in carrying passengers from the plane.

“All of a sudden there was a rush of activity,” he said. “…

A boat came tearing in (to the harbor).”

Fischer said he saw at least five people taken off the boat

and transported away by ambulance.

“It was an impressive display from the first responders,” he said.

The de Havilland Beaver is owned by Rust’s Flying Service in Anchorage. The company provides flying tours, bear viewing and transportation for fishing trips, and is the “oldest and largest seaplane operator” on Anchorage’s Lake Hood, according to its website.

Rust’s Flying Service has suspended operations in the wake of the accident and is cooperating with authorities, a spokeswoman for the company told the Associated Press.

Tutka Bay Lodge and Rust’s Flying Service put out a joint press release on Friday, in which they said they are “devastated” by the fatality, the Associated Press reported. The companies are “focusing on helping guests, family, workers and first responders,” the Associated Press reported.

An investigation into the accident is ongoing, according to troopers. The National Transportation Safety Board is also investigating.

This is the second small aircraft accident in the Homer area in a month. A private Piper PA32 carrying five people crashed into a lagoon near the Seldovia Airport on July 6. No one was injured in that crash.

Not only did people with disabilities get the chance to have fun with the rest of the community, they also had the opportunity to show off their entrepreneurial skills. Eleven-year-old Cece Strongheart spent the day selling the knits she creates for her business, Autistically Artistic.

Strongheart is autistic and started knitting hats and scarves back in October. On Saturday, she had a dozen or so of her creations on display.

Strongheart learned the craft from her mom, Ann, and uses a loom to make her products.

“She took to it quickly and now she’s knitting all the time,” Ann Strongheart said. “Watching TV, at the dinner table, I can hardly get her to put it down.”

Strongheart obtained some guidance in her new business venture from Heidi Lieb-Williams,

who is also autistic and has been the owner of Puzzled With Purpose in Anchorage since 2015.

Lieb-Williams came down from Anchorage to sell some of her own artwork as well as the crafts of her friends, including paintings, handbags and skirts sewn together from neckties.

When she is not busy running her business, Lieb-Williams travels the country as an advocate and public speaker for the autistic and disabled community. Lieb-Williams also won this year’s Alaska Miss Amazing, a pageant for women and girls with disabilities. At 44 years old, Lieb-Williams said that part of her mission is to normalize the idea of autistic or disabled people being just as much a part of society as everyone else.

“People often associate autism more with children than adults, but we get old, too, and want to contribute,” Lieb-Williams said. “And even if we can only do 80% of what a job requires, we will do that 80% better than anybody.”

Many remain on the job.

more wide ranging sweeps.

“The consequences of not reversing that sweep are pretty stunning and not what many anticipated,” Wielechowski said.

Sen. Lora Reinbold, R-Eagle River, was an ardent voice against voting for the bill, but she did ultimately vote for it.

“I just got a copy of this bill hours ago, and I do not understand the implications,” Reinbold. “This is a big, important bill for me to understand. I am asking for a recess until my amendments are read.”

She said the bill was put together through backdoor meetings, which led to Sen. John Coghill calling for a point of order, and saying the meetings were public and transparent.

Reinbold said that’s debatable.

Other senators agreed the bill’s contents were created in the public eye and noted it was similar to a bill passed by the Legislature months ago.

“There is no subversive or secretive issues in this bill,” said Sen. Bert Stedman, R-Sitka.

However, that capital budget failed to secure the super majority of votes needed to draw from the CBR. In addition to the “reverse sweep” the bill includes additional funding for projects, switches the capital budget’s

the larger money-laundering conspiracy.

During a search of Hanes’ property, law enforcement found about 1 pound of methamphetamine and about a half-pound of heroin in a safe in his bedroom.

The safe also contained more than $5,000 in cash, a loaded Glock handgun and an envelope containing a U-Haul magnetic security card and two keys, according to the release. Written on the outside of the envelope was

funding source to the CBR rather than the general fund and would provide about $250 million in “head room” for expenses that may be incurred by natural disasters such as wildfires or earthquakes.

“We’re not going to let our cities burn because we’re too tight not to have any head room,” Stedman said.

During the House Finance Committee meeting held after the Senate vote, there were questions about whether $250 million is a typical amount of head room.

Legislative Finance Director David Teal said over the years, the amount of head room has been anywhere from between $100 million and $500 million.

Rep. Kelly Merrick, R-Eagle River, noted the similarities between the bill passed by the Senate and a bill that previously fell short of the number of votes needed to draw from the CBR. She asked why she and other lawmakers were called back to Juneau to vote on legislation that failed.

Rep. Jennifer Johnston, R-Anchorage, committee co-chair, said in light of concerns about the sweep, it’s hoped the bill passes.

Rep. Colleen Sullivan-Leonard, R-Wasilla, wasn’t a fan of the tactic.

She said she’s “mad as heck” about being away from her hometown to be in Juneau considering a bill that isn’t a compromise.

“It’s moving backwards,” Sullivan-Leonard said.

“Casey, Emergency Only!”

Located in the storage locker was more methamphetamine and heroin as well as $148,000 in cash.

Hanes was not present at the time of the search. Hanes had traveled to Mexico a week before the search and remained there until his arrest in September of 2017.

In January of 2015, Hanes possessed more than 400 doses of methamphetamine and more than 2,000 doses of heroin.

The FBI Safe Streets Task Force and IRS Criminal Investigations conducted the investigation and the case was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Kyle Reardon.

What others say

Lawmakers must stand against hate

W

e’re not big believers in public officials being responsible for all the bad things other public officials say or do. It’s become a too-common political weapon to ask lawmakers to condemn members of their own party, even for behavior that’s not representative of anything more than one person’s poor decision. But sometimes that behavior is so troubling that our leaders need to stand up and say something.

So it was Sunday when President Donald Trump tweeted a bigoted attack on four Democratic Congresswomen of color, telling Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts and Rashida Tlaib of Michigan to “go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came.”

This despite three of the four women being born in the United States, and the other, Omar, being a U.S. citizen.

“Go back where you came from” is among the worst of racist tropes. It divides us by ethnicity and skin color. It says that even if someone is a citizen or legal immigrant, they are not part of the rest of us. That runs contrary to who we should be as Americans, and if Donald Trump didn’t know it when he typed the words, he surely did later when people responded with appropriate outrage. But the same president who referred to Haiti and African nations as “(expletive) countries” and said African visitors would never “go back to their huts” once again doubled down on his racism.

It’s dangerous, destructive behavior, and at the least every Republican lawmaker in Congress should declare as much about their president’s outburst. That includes North Carolina’s most senior leaders, Sens. Richard Burr and Thom Tillis.

We know this isn’t easy politically, especially for Tillis, who is running for reelection and faces a Republican primary challenger in a race to see who can embrace the president more fully. Tillis, of course, has a history of comically wavering on Trump — standing up then backing down on issues that include the Mueller investigation and the president’s declaration of a national emergency at the southern border.

North Carolina’s lawmakers, however, are far from the only Republicans to struggle with Trump’s troubling tendencies. A handful have dared to step forward and criticize the president, only to equivocate when everyone else takes a step back. Most have instead decided that any criticism of Trump — be it for policy or problematic behavior — is not worth the heat that follows.

The result is that the Republican Party is firmly Donald Trump’s party now. It’s the party where insults and other ugliness are just being “rough around the edges.” It’s the party where locking legal migrants in crowded, unhealthy cages is acceptable immigration policy. It’s the party where it’s OK to say racist things so long as the next jobs report is encouraging.

If you don’t believe it, listen to the meekness today from Republicans, including those who represent our state. Instead of standing up for who we should be, they’re bowing to the worst of who we are.

Alaska Supreme Court ruling on sex offender registry won’t make Alaska less safe A

s a former prosecutor, I am writing to offer my thoughts about the opinion of the Alaska Supreme Court in John Doe v. State of Alaska, Supreme Court No. S16748.

On June 14, the Supreme Court issued a decision that preserves the Alaska Sex Offender Registry Act (ASORA). The court denied John Doe’s request to be released from his requirement to register as a sex offender because he had been convicted for a sex crime in another state. The court also denied his request to declare the ASORA unconstitutional.

ASORA still exists, and recently, there were 3,531 entries on the list. A wide range of crimes require registration, from murder in the course of a sexual offense to distributing indecent material to minors, known as “sexting.”

ASORA continues to require the Department of Public Safety to maintain a central registry of sex offenders which is accessible to the public. It is worth noting that sex offenders are not required to register until they are released from prison, which means they are in our communities.

The Supreme Court, through its opinion in John Doe, established a right for sex offenders to file a separate civil lawsuit for removal from the

The opportunity for sex offenders to have a chance at removal from the registry strikes an appropriate balance between the need to protect the public and the principle of reformation.

registry. In order to be removed, sex offenders will have to prove they no longer pose a risk to the public. The Supreme Court noted that a majority of states already provide sex offenders with the right to these types of hearings. The Supreme Court acknowledged that the superior court will have to develop the individualized risk assessment hearings, with input from the parties and expert witnesses. Even though the opinion did not specifically address whether victims will have the right to participate in the hearings, I hope the superior court will provide that right to victims.

Chief Justice Joel Bolger and Justice Craig Stowers raised genuine concerns about the opinion in their dissenting opinion. I share many of their concerns and I am concerned the superior court is already overwhelmed by its caseload. I anticipate many sex offenders will seek to be removed from the registry, which will stress the

limited resources of the Alaska Court System and the Department of Law. Ultimately, I do not believe that the Supreme Court’s opinion in John Doe makes Alaska less safe. Rather, sex offenders now have significant incentive to rehabilitate themselves in order to have a chance at removal from the registry. The opportunity for sex offenders to have a chance at removal from the registry strikes an appropriate balance between the need to protect the public and the principle of reformation.

Mueller’s testimony poses risk for Trump, Democrats

By Lisa Mascaro and Mary Clare Jalonick Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Robert Mueller’s testimony before Congress will depend not so much on what he says, but that he’s even saying it at all.

For Democrats, the special counsel’s appearance Wednesday creates a moment many have been waiting for: Mueller finally speaking out, piercing the public consciousness about President Donald Trump’s response to the Russia investigation and whether anything should be done about it.

The political stakes are high for Trump, but also for Democrats, who have spent the past two years pushing toward this day. As public attention has drifted and views have hardened, Democrats are counting on Americans hearing what most have not likely read — the stunning findings of Mueller’s 448-page report .

“Let us listen, let us see where the facts will take us,” said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. “And then, we’ll see what happens after that.”

Yet there’s a real possibility that Mueller may not bring clarity.

It took months to negotiate his appearance before Congress and he has been reluctant to speak beyond what he and his team wrote. Few bombshells are expected. As the House Judiciary Committee and the House Intelligence Committee gavel in, the buttoned-down prosecutor, once envisioned as a trusted last word, may deliver just-thefacts responses that leave more questions than answers.

Rather than galvanizing public

opinion and the questions of impeachment, Mueller’s reluctant appearance may become just another chapter in the Trump era that won’t be closed until the 2020 election.

Trump tried to project a lack of interest, claiming he will not tune in to Wednesday’s hourslong hearings and saying Democrats are “just playing games.”

“I won’t be watching Mueller,” he told reporters.

The nation, though, will likely pay attention.

Mueller’s appearance comes more than two years since the start of the Russia investigation, an extraordinary moment in Trump’s presidency when, after Trump had fired FBI Director James Comey, his Justice Department appointed Mueller to take over the inquiry into election interference and the potential role that Trump and his winning 2016 campaign may have played.

Mueller spoke publicly only once, saying his team’s report, released in April, should speak for itself.

The report found that while there was no evidence the campaign colluded with Russia to swing the election, Trump could not be cleared of trying to obstruct the investigation. But Mueller believed he couldn’t be indicted in part because of a Justice Department opinion against prosecuting a sitting president.

The special counsel’s team appeared to punt the question to Congress to decide next steps. More than 80 House Democrats now say there should be impeachment proceedings, and it’s likely that Mueller’s testimony increases that number.

“Let us listen, let us see where the facts will take us. And then, we’ll see what happens after that.”

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi

But time has a way of changing the political dynamic.

While Mueller’s testimony was once envisioned as a crystalizing event, a Watergate-style moment to uncover truths, public attention has drifted in the months since the report was released.

Trump, a master at changing the subject, has easily shifted the public’s attention to his racist attacks on four women of color in Congress.

“Timing matters,” said Julian E. Zelizer, a professor of history and public affairs at Princeton University. He and others who favor opening impeachment proceedings say Mueller should have testified months ago.

A June poll by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research found 31% of Americans said they didn’t know enough to say whether Mueller’s report had completely cleared Trump of coordination with Russia and 30% didn’t know whether it had not completely cleared Trump of obstruction. A CNN poll found that just 3% said they had read the whole report.

Democrats are counting on Mueller’s presence to capture public attention in ways the report alone has been unable to do, with some comparing it to the movie version of the book.

“I do think that the contents of the report are so significant, and so damning, that when Mr. Mueller

brings them to life, and actually tells the American people … it will have an impact,” said Rep. David Cicilline, D-R.I., a member of the House Judiciary Committee.

“This will be really the first opportunity for the American people to hear directly from Mr. Mueller about what he found about Russian interference in the American presidential election and efforts by the president to impede, undermine or stop the investigation,” he said.

It’s not lost on Democrats that they are brushing up against a narrative already set, by Trump’s claims of no collusion or obstruction, and Attorney General William Barr’s own framing of the report before its public release with his stamp of no wrongdoing.

“There are still millions of people who think, absurdly, that there is no evidence of presidential obstruction or collusion in the report,” said Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., a member of the House Judiciary Committee and also a professor of constitutional law. He said Trump and Barr have left a “fog of propaganda” hanging over the country. “We just want to clear the fog,” he said.

Congress has oversight of the executive branch, and lawmakers on the committees plan to delve into key areas of the report where Trump interfered with the investigation. Democrats often note that obstruction was included in

the articles of impeachment against President Richard Nixon.

One focus will be on the conversations Trump had with the former White House counsel, Don McGahn, first as the president tried to fire Mueller over the Russia probe, and later to direct the lawyer to deny that he had ordered for Mueller be dismissed.

There will be questions about potential witness tampering, and the suggestions of a presidential pardon for Trump’s former campaign manager, Paul Manafort, and conversations with Trump’s former personal attorney, Michael Cohen. Both men are now in custody, serving sentences on other charges.

At the same time, Republicans will likely try to turn the tables, casting doubt on the Russia investigation and its origins during the Obama administration.

But Mueller, 74, who hews to standards of an earlier era, is not expected to stray beyond the document his team produced.

Aides to lawmakers say they have been reviewing his past congressional appearances and are expecting one-word answers and few surprises.

That could lead to an unfulfilling conclusion for Democrats, and others, who are hoping Mueller’s testimony will bring some resolution.

The top Republican on the Judiciary Committee, Rep. Doug Collins of Georgia, said the hearing will be “like an old TV show that you watched years ago. … After a few minutes you could quote what the characters could say, and nothing is new anymore.”

“Frankly, the American people have moved on,” Collins said.

75th anniversary of plot to kill Hitler marked in Germany BERLIN — German Chancellor Angela Merkel has urged Europeans to confront populism, nationalism, racism and anti-Semitism as she paid tribute to the Nazi resistance in her own country.

Speaking Saturday at a solemn ceremony marking the anniversary of the failed attempt to kill Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler, Merkel said the courage and sacrifice of the conspirator should serve as an example to people today.

“They put humanity over their own human lives,” she told the crowd at the site where plot leader Col. Claus von Stauffenberg and others were executed.

Von Stauffenberg tried to kill Hitler with a briefcase bomb on July 20, 1944, during a meeting at his headquarters in what was then East Prussia. Hitler escaped the full force of the blast when someone moved the briefcase next to a table leg, deflecting much of the explosive force. The plot crumbled when news spread that Hitler had survived. Von Stauffenberg and his fellow plotters were executed within hours. Merkel took the occasion to pay tribute to all who stood up against the Nazis in different ways, including people who hid Jews to save them from the death camps, the Jews who rose up in the Warsaw Ghetto to attack their Nazi captors in 1943, the Polish fighters of the 1944 Warsaw Uprising and other partisans who fought against the German occupiers and others.

British Airways, Lufthansa suspend flights

LONDON — British Airways and Lufthansa both said Saturday they were suspending flights to Cairo for unspecified reasons related to safety and security.

The British carrier said it was canceling flights to the Egyptian capital for a week. The German airline said normal operations would resume Sunday.

Both carriers delivered two-sentence statements via email.

British Airways attributed its cancellations to what it called its constant review of security arrangements at all airports, calling them “a precaution to allow for further assessment.”

Lufthansa said it was suspending its flights as a precaution, mentioning “safety” but not “security” as its concern.

Company spokespeople would not elaborate on what motivated the suspensions.

They come as Britain weighs its response to Iran’s seizure Friday of a British-flagged oil tanker in the Strait of Hormuz and rising tensions stemming from U.S. sanctions’ effect on Iran’s economy and oil exports.

Monsoon flooding death toll climbs to 164

GAUHATI, India — The death toll in monsoon flooding in South Asia has climbed past 160 as millions of people and animals continue to face the brunt in three countries, officials said Saturday. At least 90 people have died in Nepal and 62 in northeastern India’s Assam state over the past week. A dozen have been killed in flooding in Bangladesh.

Shiv Kumar, a government official in Assam, said 10 rare one-horned rhinos have died in Kaziranga National Park since the Brahmaputra River burst its banks, flooding the reserve.

Today in History Today is Sunday, July 21, the 202nd day of 2019. There are 163 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On July 21, 1969, Apollo 11 astronauts Neil Armstrong and Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin blasted off from the moon aboard the ascent stage of the lunar module for docking with the command module.

On this date: In 1861, during the Civil War, the first Battle of Bull Run was fought at Manassas, Virginia, resulting in a Confederate victory.

In 1925, the so-called “Monkey Trial” ended in Dayton, Tennessee, with John T. Scopes found guilty of violating state law for teaching Darwin’s Theory of Evolution. (The conviction was later overturned on a technicality.)

In 1944, American forces landed on Guam during World War II, capturing it from the Japanese some three weeks later. The Democratic National Convention in Chicago nominated Sen. Harry S. Truman to be vice president.

In 1955, during a summit in Geneva, President Dwight D. Eisenhower presented his “open skies” proposal under which the U.S. and the Soviet Union would trade information on each other’s military facilities and allow aerial reconnaissance. (The Soviets rejected the proposal.)

In 1980, draft registration began in the United States for 19- and 20-yearold men.

In 1990, a benefit concert took place in Germany at the site of the fallen Berlin Wall; the concert, which drew some 200,000 people, was headlined by Roger Waters, a founder of Pink Floyd. (The concert ended with the collapse of a mock Berlin Wall made of styrofoam.)

In 1994, Britain’s Labor Party elected Tony Blair its new leader, succeeding the late John Smith.

In 1999, Navy divers found and recovered the bodies of John F. Kennedy Jr., his wife, Carolyn, and sister-in-law, Lauren Bessette (bih-SEHT’), in the wreckage of Kennedy’s plane in the Atlantic Ocean off Martha’s Vineyard.

In 2000, Special Counsel John C. Danforth concluded “with 100 percent certainty” that the federal government was innocent of wrongdoing in the siege that killed 80 members of the Branch Davidian compound near Waco, Texas, in 1993.

In 2011, the 30-year-old space shuttle program ended as Atlantis landed at Cape Canaveral, Florida, after the 135th shuttle flight.

In 2008, former Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic (RA’-doh-van KA’-ra-jich), one of the world’s top war crimes fugitives, was arrested in a Belgrade suburb by Serbian security forces. (He was sentenced by a U.N. court in 2019 to life imprisonment after being convicted of genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes.)

In 2017, White House press secretary Sean Spicer abruptly quit over President Donald Trump’s decision to name financier Anthony Scaramucci as the new White House communications director. Scaramucci announced from the White House briefing room that Sarah Huckabee Sanders, who had been Spicer’s deputy, would take over for Spicer. (Scaramucci was fired on July 31 after 11 days on the job; he had used vulgar language to insult White House aides during a phone call to a reporter.)

Ten years ago: The Senate voted to terminate further production of the Air Force’s topline F-22 fighter jets. Prosecutors in Cambridge, Massachusetts, dropped a disorderly conduct charge against prominent black scholar Henry Louis Gates Jr., who was arrested by a white officer at his home near Harvard University after a report of a break-in. Taco Bell mascot Gidget the Chihuahua died in Santa Clarita, California, at 15.

Five years ago: President Barack Obama ordered employment protection for gay and transgender employees who worked for the federal government or for companies holding federal contracts, telling advocates at a White House signing ceremony he embraced the “irrefutable rightness of your cause.” Pro-Moscow separatists, bowing to international pressure, agreed to turn over flight data recorders from the downed Malaysia Airlines plane four days after it plunged into eastern Ukraine.

One year ago: Reacting to the disclosure that his former lawyer had secretly taped their discussion about a potential payment for a former Playboy model, President Donald Trump called such taping “totally unheard of & perhaps illegal,” but added that he “did nothing wrong.” A store employee was shot and killed when a gunman who was being chased by police ran into a busy Los Angeles supermarket, where he held hostages for about three hours before handcuffing himself and surrendering; police determined that the employee, Melyda Corado, had been hit by a bullet fired by a police officer during an exchange of fire with the suspect.

Dangerous heat wave ‘brutal’ High temperatures, humidity are gripping half much of the U.S.

By Jennifer Peltz Associated Press

NEW YORK — Americans from Texas to Maine sweated out a steamy Saturday as a heat wave canceled events from festivals to horse races, chased baseball fans out of their seats and pushed New York City to order steps to avoid straining the electrical system.

The National Weather Service said “a dangerous heat wave” sent temperatures into the 90s, with high humidity that made it feel considerably hotter. It was expected to stay warm at night, in the upper 70s to low 80s, with more heat on the way Sunday for the East Coast.

“It’s brutal,” Jeffrey Glickman said as he paused during a run in Washington.

The 37-year-old got out early to try to escape the worst of the heat but still planned to cut his route short on an already 90-degree morning.

“You just have to power through it the best you can,” he said.

Many people in areas facing excessive heat this weekend have no air conditioning, and cities opened shelters

for people to cool off. With record- or near-record-high temperatures at night when many air conditioned places are closed, the weather can become especially dangerous for people who don’t get a chance to cool down, experts say. The risks are greater for young children, the elderly and the sick.

Over three days in July 1995, more than 700 people died during a heat wave in Chicago as temperatures rose above 97 degrees. Many of the dead were poor, elderly and lived alone.

While the Midwest will get some relief Sunday as a cold front brings storms and lower temperatures, the East won’t be so lucky until Monday, the weather service warned. The heat will be the worst from the Carolinas to Maine.

In Norwich, Connecticut, Larry Konecny watched as one of his workers a couple of stories up in a boom lift cleaned the outside of an office building. The pair had no choice but to work in 90-degree heat and stifling humidity because the job needed to be done when office workers were away, Konecny said.

“He’s pressure-washing, so the water is splashing. So at least there’s some degree of refreshment,” he said.

New York City authorities canceled a Times Square commemoration of the

1969 moon landing and an outdoor festival featuring soccer star Megan Rapinoe, musician John Legend and “Daily Show” host Trevor Noah.

Still, Megan Vallerie ran 5 miles in Brooklyn’s Prospect Park.

“It’s not the day to be out here. I should have been up much earlier,” she said Saturday morning. “You’ve got to take your time and drink a lot of water and survive, not enjoy. That’s the goal.”

The city also directed owners of many office buildings to set thermostats no lower than 78 degrees through Sunday to reduce strain on the electrical grid.

The measure came after a power outage related to an equipment failure, not heat, caused a roughly five-hour blackout July 13 that affected a 40-block stretch of Manhattan, including Times Square and Rockefeller Center.

Storms have knocked out power to hundreds of thousands of people in parts of Michigan and Wisconsin, heightening the misery.

Strong wind and rain were expected to persist Saturday night and into Sunday in the Midwest and Central Plains.

In Philadelphia, several hundred people were evacuated from a retirement community due to a partial power outage, though it wasn’t immediately clear

whether the problem was heat related. Residents were taken to a nearby shelter, and police said some went to a hospital for evaluation.

In Chicago, heat nixed several outdoor events, including a 5k run in Grant Park and a morning workout at Millennium Park.

It hit 94 degrees by first pitch at the San Diego Padres-Chicago Cubs game at Wrigley Field, but some fans didn’t want to stay away, largely watching from shaded concourses as the Cubs won 6-5.

“We’re sticking to water and not having beer. It’s helping a little bit,” said Jaclyn Jendrisak of St. Louis.

In New Jersey, operators of the Monmouth Park horse racing track canceled six races and pushed back others, including the $1 million Haskell Invitational, until early evening. Maximum Security, the horse that crossed the finish line first in this year’s Kentucky Derby and then was disqualified, headlines the Haskell field.

Animal rights activists protested outside the New Jersey Shore track, where temperatures hit the high 90s.

The track set up misting fans in the paddock and saddling areas for the 14-race card, shortened post parades before the race to limit track time for the horses and hosed them down after they ran.

50 years after the ‘giant leap’

By Marcia Dunn Associated Press

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — A moonstruck nation celebrated the 50th anniversary of Apollo 11’s “giant leap”

by Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin at parties, races, ball games and concerts Saturday, toasting with Tang and gobbling MoonPies.

At NASA’s Kennedy Space Center, Aldrin showed Vice President Mike Pence the launch pad where he flew to the moon in 1969. At the same time halfway around the world, an American and two other astronauts blasted into space on a Russian rocket. And in Armstrong’s hometown of Wapakoneta, Ohio, nearly 2,000 runners competed in “Run to the Moon” races.

“Apollo 11 is the only event in the 20th century that stands a chance of being widely remembered in the 30th century,” the vice president said.

Wapakoneta 10K runner Robert Rocco, 54, a retired Air Force officer from Centerville, Ohio, called the moon landing by Armstrong and Aldrin “perhaps the most historic event in my lifetime, maybe in anybody’s lifetime.”

At the Museum of Flight in Seattle, Gilda Warden sat on a bench and gazed in awe at the Apollo 11 command module, Columbia, on display. “It’s like entering the Sistine Chapel and seeing the ceiling. You want to just sit there and take it in,” said Warden, 63, a psychiatric nurse from Tacoma, Washington.

On July 20, 1969, Armstrong and Aldrin undocked from Columbia in lunar orbit and then descended in the lunar module Eagle to the Sea of Tranquility. The Eagle landed with just 17 seconds of fuel to spare. Six hours later, Armstrong was the first to step onto the lunar surface, proclaiming for the ages: “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” It was humanity’s first footsteps on another world.

In a speech at Kennedy, Pence paid tribute to Armstrong, Aldrin and command module pilot Michael Collins — if they’re not heroes, “then there are no heroes” — as well as the 400,000 Americans who worked tirelessly to get them to the moon.

Visitors pose for photos beside a portrait of Neil Armstrong at the Armstrong Air and Space Museum as visitors commemorated the 50th anniversary of the first moon landing Saturday in Wapakoneta, Ohio.

Aldrin, 89, grabbed the right hand of Neil Armstrong’s older son, Rick, at Pence’s mention of heroes.

He then stood and saluted, and received a standing ovation. Armstrong died in 2012. Collins, 88, did not attend the Florida ceremony.

But Apollo 17’s Harrison Schmitt, the next-to-last man to walk on the moon in 1972, was there.

Pence reiterated the Trump administration’s goal of sending American astronauts back to the moon within five years and eventually on to Mars. He said this next generation of astronauts will spend weeks and months on the lunar surface, not just days and hours like the 12 Apollo moonwalkers did. Alongside the stage was the newly completed Orion capsule that will fly to the moon and back, on a test flight without a crew, in another year or two.

NASA had other celebrations going on Saturday, most notably at Johnson Space Center in Houston, home to Mission Control; the U.S. Space and Rocket Center next door to Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, where the Saturn V moon rockets were born; and the Smithsonian Institution’s National Air and Space Museum in Washington.

And where better to celebrate than Apollo, Pennsylvania — located in Armstrong County not far from Moon Township and the town of Mars. The historical society revived the annual moon-landing celebration in honor of the

big 50. All of the Apollo astronauts have long been honorary citizens of Apollo, the society’s Alan Morgan said.

At New York’s Yankee Stadium, former space shuttle astronaut Mike Massimino threw out the ceremonial first pitch to former pitcher Jack Aker, who was on the mound when the July 20, 1969, baseball game was interrupted to announce that the Eagle had landed. Armstrong and Aldrin were “A1, No. 1, higher than major league,” Aker recalled Saturday. “It’s a mutual feeling,” Massimino agreed.

Across the country in Seattle, Tim Turner was first in line Saturday to see Columbia, the mother ship piloted

by Collins as Armstrong and Aldrin moonwalked.

“Good grief! It’s still amazing, the No. 1 feat of the 20th century, if not all of modern history, that first time there,” said Turner, 57, a computer programmer from Poulsbo, Washington.

As he waited to get in to see Columbia, Craig Smith, 58, a veterinarian from Tacoma, Washington, recalled thinking as a boy: “‘Dang! Seriously? A dude on the moon?’ I thought that was nifty.”

Clocks all over counted down to the exact moment of the Eagle’s landing on the moon — 4:17 p.m. EDT — and Armstrong’s momentous step onto the lunar surface at 10:56 p.m. EDT. The powdered orange drink Tang was back in vogue for the toasts, along with marshmallow and chocolate

MoonPies, including a 55-pound, 45,000-calorie MoonPie at Kennedy’s One Giant Leap bash.

About 100 visitors and staff at the American Space Museum in Titusville, across the Indian River from Kennedy, cheered and lifted plastic champagne glasses of Tang at the moment of touchdown.

“This is what we’re here for, to share the American space experience,” explained executive director Karan Conklin, who led the toast.

For the late night-crowd, “first step” concerts were on tap at the Kennedy Center in Washington, outside in the shadow of a replica Saturn V rocket in Huntsville, and other sweltering locales.

A real rocket lit up the night sky in Kazakhstan.

Blasting off aboard a Russian Soyuz rocket in 100-degree heat, American Andrew Morgan, Italian Luca Parmitano and Russian Alexander Skvortsov flew to the International Space Station. Only Skvortsov was alive at the time of Apollo 11. The three already living on the space station also were born long after the moon landings.

The crew deliberately modeled its mission patch after Apollo 11’s: no astronaut names included to show the universal nature of space flight. Morgan explained in a NASA interview that Apollo 11, and now his flight, represents “an accomplishment of the world and not one single country.”

All transactions conducted in a safe, secure, discreet and confidential manner.

Twins hunt division title

By Name Peninsula Clarion

After a 6-3 loss to Service on Friday, a 4-2 loss to Ketchikan on Saturday and a 14-1 victory over Ketchikan on Saturday, the American Legion Post 20 Twins still will win the American Division if they can beat South at 11 a.m.

Sunday on the final day of the regular season.

The Twins are now 12-5 in the league and 20-11-1 overall. South is 13-4 in the league, but if the Twins win, they have a 2-0 record against South in league play. Palmer is 11-5, but the Twins also

own the tiebreaker there.

In the seeding for the state tournament, however, the division title would mean nothing because teams are seeded based solely on their record. The National Division has teams with better records, so Twins coach Robb Quelland said his team could end up anywhere from the No. 4 seed to the No. 7 seed.

“We just came out flat in the first two games,” Quelland said. “We didn’t play our best baseball, like we have the past two weeks.

We faced really good pitching in both games.”

Errors were costly in the

loss to Service, which finishes 6-12 in the league.

Harold Ochea got the start and gave up five runs in 3 2-3 innings, but just one run was earned. Ochea yielded two hits and four walks, while striking out one.

Relievers Chris Jaime, Jeremy Kupferschmid and Davey Belger combined to hold Service to one hit and one run the rest of the way, but the Twins could not dig out of the hole.

Post 20 managed just four hits in the game, with Mose Hayes collecting two and David Michael and Seth Adkins each getting a hit.

Sam Maudsley went five strong innings for Service, giving up an unearned run on four hits while walking three and striking out four.

Andrew Jaidinger pitched the final two innings, giving up two unearned runs and no hits, while walking five and striking out three.

Hutton Stiles had a pair of hits for Service.

In the 4-2 loss to Ketchikan, Liam Kiffer went 5 1-3 innings for the Kings, giving up two runs — one earned — on five hits. Wyatt Barajas finished with 1 2-3 innings of See twins, Page B2

Bike boom persists at Tsalteshi

By Jeff Helminiak Peninsula Clarion

It’s not about the bikes, though they are lighter and perform better and more consistenly than ever before.

It’s also not about the trails, though Tsalteshi Trails are getting enough cachet that it’s no longer rare to see outof-state riders there.

No, the reason mountain biking at Tsalteshi has grown from one event that drew 10 riders in 2012 to weekly races — one which drew over 90 riders — that stretch from the end of June to early October is the people.

“Did I expect this?” asked Kenai’s Mike Crawford, who organized that first race in 2012. “Not at all.

“It just shows a small group of people in a small community can make quite a difference.”

And also that the small group can attract a larger group of like-minded followers. Mark Beeson, president of the Tsalteshi Trails Association and also the co-owner of Beemuns Variety, has been organizing the bike races since 2015.

He has seen numbers spike to 91 in the first race this year,

86 in the second race and 68 in the third race on Thursday.

“The biggest thing is it’s a really good group of people who come out for the races,” Beeson said. “Everybody is super encouraging.

“Everybody thinks bike racing is serious, Tour de France stuff. But really, this is a lot more like a 5K run.

People are just coming out to do their best.”

Kenai’s Matt Brown may be more familiar to area sports fans as a motor sports enthusiast, but he is in his second year of doing the Soldotna Cycle Series thanks to going on a health kick.

“It’s horribly painful, but it’s fun,” Brown said.

He only made it to three of the bike races last year, but this year his goal is every bike race and every Salmon Run Series.

Brown broke a chain this week and wrecked last week, but the group keeps him coming back.

“Everyone is great out here,” he said. “They give everybody encouragement, whether you are fast or slow.”

Brown also gave Beeson credit for spending extra time See BIKE, Page B4

The Millennium Square rugby pitch used for the Kenai Dipnet Fest Rugby 10’s Tourney, hosted by Kenai Wolfpack, is a short walk from three things.

First is the Kenai bluff and its magnificent view of the studious dip netters, the artful mouth of the Kenai River and the looming Chigmit Mountains beyond.

Second is the Back Door Lounge.

Third is a field of tents. “ It ’s a g re at at m o sphere,” said Eagle River’s Kevin Hein, 26, of the JBER

Arctic Legion Militar y Rugby Club. “I can’t think of a better way to spend a Saturday afternoon.”

With so many treats available on three sides of the pitch, one might think the rugby tournament could get lost in the mix.

Talk with players like Hein, though, and it’s apparent most of the action at the 9th annual event was on the field.

The Kenai Dipnet Fest is a highly social event that allows players to join other teams, and Hein’s intent was to play with as many teams and in as many See rugby, Page B3

The result of the Peninsula Oilers game at the ChugiakEagle River Chinooks was too late to be included in the Sunday edition of the Peninsula Clarion.

The Oilers and Chinooks were tied at 2 in the 12th inning as the Clarion went to press. The result is available on peninsulaclarion.com.

Peninsula and ChugiakEagle River are locked in a battle for the final playoff spot in the Top of the World Series.

The Chinooks are 11-23 and one game ahead of the Oilers at 12-26.

The Bucs lead the league at 25-11, while the Mat-Su Miners are next three games back at 21-13 and the Pilots are five games back at 19-15.

The Oilers now play the final five games of the regular season at home against the Bucs. The Oilers play at Coral

Seymour Memorial Park on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 6 p.m., and Sunday at 2 p.m.

The game against the Chinooks was the last in a nine-game road trip. The Oilers won the first game of the trip, but then lost seven straight.

The Chinooks have nine games remaining — four against the Miners, four against the Pilots and one against the Bucs. Five are at home, while the other four are on the road.

Friday, Mat-Su needed five pitchers to do it, but the Miners staff put together a shutout on the mound.

The Miners blanked the Peninsula Oilers 5-0 at Hermon Brothers Field in Palmer.

Randy Abshier earned the win on the mound, allowing a pair of hits and fanning five See oilers, Page B2

Unity Run sees all 1st-time winners

By Jeff Helminiak Peninsula Clarion

The 15th annual Rotary Unity Run had four first-time winners Saturday at Tsalteshi Trails.

The 5-kilometer winners were a pair who attended Kenai Central High School as freshmen. Samuel Roberts took the overall win at 20 minutes, 29 seconds, while Summer Foster was the first woman, and fourth overall, at 23:15.

The 10-kilometer race saw Kenai’s Sean Goff cross first at 46:37 and Sterling’s Sondra Stonecipher take the top

women’s spot, and fifth overall, at 59:41.

The race is put on by the Kenai River Rotary of Soldotna, in conjunction with the Tsalteshi Trails Association. It features 10K, 5K and 1-mile courses, although nobody opted for the shortest option on a cool but bright day that was perfect for running. The 5K race had 38 runners, while 11 turned out for the 10K. For Stonecipher, the run was part of the big summer that already included the Mount Marathon Race in Seward on July 4.

“I was using this as a

training run for Resurrection Pass,” she said.

Unfortunately for Stonecipher and others who have trained hard for the 50- and 100-mile races on the Resurrection Pass trails, the event announced on its website Thursday that the races, scheduled for Aug. 9 and 10, have been canceled due to smoke from the Swan Lake Fire.

Stonecipher had done the Angel Creek 50 miler last year in the Interior and did backto-back 20-mile training runs at Tsalteshi on Tuesday and See Run, Page B2

Peninsula Clarion

Lowry builds 4-shot lead at British Open PORTRUSH, Northern Ireland (AP) — The noise was unlike anything Shane Lowry had ever heard on a golf course, no surprise at the first British Open in these parts in 68 years and an Irishman atop the leaderboard at Royal Portrush.

Lowry didn’t get rattled Saturday. He only got better.

Two straight birdies around the turn to take the lead. Three straight birdies near the end to pull away.

An 8-under 63 for his lowest round in a major. A stunning back nine that gave him the 54-hole record in the British Open. A four-shot lead going into the final round.

Walking off the 17th tee, Lowry turned to his caddie and said, “We might never have a day like this on the golf course again, so let’s enjoy this.”

“Honestly, that’s the most incredible day I’ve ever had on the golf course,” Lowry said. “I just can’t believe what it was like.”

It can get a lot better, starting with his name etched on the base of that silver claret jug.

Lowry wasn’t willing to look that far ahead, not with a forecast so dire the R&A moved up the starting times Sunday in an effort to avoid

the worst of the heavy rain and 35 mph gusts in the forecast.

“There’s no point in saying to go out and enjoy myself tomorrow because it’s going to be a very stressful and very difficult day,” Lowry said. “I’m going to take the bad shots on the chin and I’m going to take the good shots and try to capitalize on that. I’m just going to be myself and play my game and see where it leaves me.”

He took a big step with a 30 on the back nine to break away from the pack for a four-shot lead over Tommy Fleetwood, who had a bogey-free 66 and still lost ground. J.B. Holmes, who shared the 36-hole lead with Lowry, couldn’t keep up. No one could.

Holmes had two straight bogeys on the back nine, didn’t make as many putts as the opening two rounds, but otherwise was solid for a 69.

“It wasn’t like it was terrible,” Holmes said. “But when you’re playing with a guy making everything, it feels like you shot a million.”

The return of golf’s oldest championship to Northern Ireland no longer had favorite son Rory McIlroy. Lowry filled the void just fine.

Pacquiao earns close win over Thurman LAS VEGAS (AP) — From his first-round knockdown punches to his tenacious 12th-round finish, Manny Pacquiao gave yet another one-sided thrashing to Father Time.

Keith Thurman was a whole lot tougher to beat, but the 40-year-old Filipino senator managed to win that vote as well.

Pacquiao floored Thurman early and persevered late to an exciting split-decision victory Saturday night, adding a third straight win to his late-career resurgence.

Pacquiao (62-7-2) dropped his previously unbeaten opponent with a combination late in the first round, and the PacMan dominated the opening rounds with a combination of flair and power that recalled the incredible prime of the only eight-division champion in boxing history.

Thurman (29-1) showed remarkable tenacity in rallying through the middle rounds, repeatedly testing Pacquiao’s chin with big shots. Neither fighter managed another knockdown, but they pushed relentlessly in front of a sellout crowd at the MGM Grand Garden that repeatedly chanted Pacquiao’s name from the moment he reached the ring.

“It was fun,” Pacquiao said.

“My opponent is a good fighter and boxer. He was strong. ... I think he did his best, and I did my best. I think we made the fans happy tonight because it

over four innings. Abshier, who hit 87 pitches, didn’t allow the Oilers to cash in on any of their six walks.

The pitching staff combined to allow only four hits and strike out nine. Evan Floyd worked two in nings, and fanned three. Owen Lamon, Grant Sloan and Jacob McNairy pitched an inning each.

Twins From Page B1

scoreless and hitless ball.

Logan Smith started for the Twins and gave up four runs — two earned — on five hits. Harrison Metz closed with a scoreless innings.

Smith led the offense with two hits, while David Michael, Seth Adkins and Tanner Ussing added hits.

Metz went all five innings in the second game as the

was a good fight.”

Two judges scored the bout 115-112 for Pacquiao, while Glenn Feldman scored it 114-113 for Thurman. The Associated Press also scored it 115-112 for Pacquiao.

“I knew it was close,” Thurman said. “He had the momentum because he got the knockdown in Round 1. ... I wish I had a little bit more output to go toe to toe. My conditioning, my output was just behind Manny Pacquiao’s tonight. Tonight was a blessing and a lesson.”

Pacquiao appeared to be declining as recently as two years ago, when he lost a listless decision to Jeff Horn. But while his political career flourished, Pacquiao also revived his ring career with solid backto-back victories over Lucas Matthysse and Adrien Broner.

Thurman represented another major step up in competition, but Pacquiao’s strong start quieted any speculation that he would suddenly look old in a matchup with an elite welterweight champion.

Thurman’s effort was impressive on paper: He landed slightly more punches than the famously active Pacquiao, and his 192 power punches landed were the most by any Pacquiao opponent in his 43 fights that were tracked by CompuBox. But Pacquiao had a dominant jab, and he outworked Thurman in the 12th round, throwing 56 punches to win the round on two judges’ cards.

Five different Miners finished with two hits each in the win. Sam Thompson finished with two hits and two RBIs. Justin Kirby had two hits and scored twice.

Aaron Walters had a run, hit and RBI. Coby Boulware and Kody Huff added two hits and an RBI each.

Bobby Goodloe collected two of the Oilers four hits in the game.

Jeremiah Bartz of the Frontiersman contributed to this report.

Twins won 14-1 and enacted the mercy rule. Metz gave up a run on three hits.

The Twins got to Ketchikan starter James Nordlund for 11 runs on seven hits in just two innings.

Ussing was 2 for 3 with two runs, while Metz was 2 for 4 with three runs. Jeremy Kupferschmid and Michael each had a hit, two runs and two RBIs. Davey Belger had a hit and two runs, while Mose Hayes added the other hit.

Run From Page B1

Wednesday to get ready for the Res Pass Ultras, which said it will be back next year.

She has been doing the Unity Run for years, going back to when it was on the paved bike path between Kenai and Soldotna, and was happy to get a win.

“It feels great,” she said.

“I wasn’t expecting it at all.

Sometimes, it’s all about who shows up.”

Goff used his past experience at Tsalteshi to secure the men’s win. Tsalteshi is known for its rugged hills that can break a runner down, and Goff was running there for only the third time this summer.

“I’ve run here in the past, so I know when the hills are coming,” he said. “I just slowed down and caught by breath a bit.”

Goff even had enough

energy to catch a group of 5-kilometer runners right at the finish line.

“It was just a challenge, a little trick I used, to keep me going,” he said. “I was close to Supermaning it (at the finish line), because my legs were pretty dead.”

Foster, who will be a sophomore at Kenai Central this year, was on Kenai’s state champion cross-country squad as a freshman. Her new coach suggested the race so she showed up.

“I just wanted to do a race, but this wasn’t my best,” she said. “This was just kind of a fun run.”

While Foster said she wasn’t going all out Saturday, she did mention she has trained a lot for the upcoming season.

Roberts won’t be joining her on the trails because he is moving with his family to California this week. He may or may not make the Salmon Run Series on Wednesday, but if Saturday was his swan song at Tsalteshi he goes out

a winner.

“After the first lap, I wasn’t sure,” he said of his victory.

“I took three steps down the wrong trail and had to backtrack.”

Rachel Nash, the past president of the Kenai River Rotary Club of Soldotna, said the event serves as the main fundraiser for the group, with Central Peninsula Hospital and State Farm Nancy Field serving as main sponsors.

This is the third year Kenai River Rotary Club of Soldotna has held the event at Tsalteshi Trails.

Rotary is an international service-based organization, but does plenty of projects here in the community.

Kenai River Rotary Club of Soldotna has a bunch of projects, like maintaining ARC Lake, Books for Babies at Kenai Peninsula College, a Guatemalan literacy program, a reusable bag bin at Fred Meyer and the Soldotna Safeway, and mental health firstaid training at the Soldotna

library.

Kathy Heindl, who took over as president July 1, said other projects are memorial benches for the Kasilof Historical Society and a tree-planting at Swiftwater Park.

The group meets Tuesdays at 6:30 p.m. at Siam Noodles, for those who are interested.

games as possible.

“I do this every tournament,” he said. “Everyone else finds it very weird.

“It’s a social tournament. It’s not competitive or for prize money. It’s for the love of the game, so I play as much as possible.”

Hein, originally from Chicago, started playing rugby seven years ago at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse. He said the sport perfectly fits his love of team sports and tough competition.

“You need to expend everything you’ve got,” Hein said. “It takes the whole team.

“In 15’s, there’s no Tom Brady or Peyton Manning.

It takes everybody and that takes so much out of you.”

That’s why Hein plays ever y game he can at social tournaments. When the tournaments get more serious, he said he’ll be in condition for that.

“Recovery is very important,” Hein said.

He recovers with ice baths, massage, a weekly trip to the chiropract o r a n d by s m o k i n g marijuana.

“It’s all about getting as many minutes as possible,” he said.

Taku Ngwenya, 32, of Dallas agrees. He also was trying to play in every game he could at the tournament.

Rugby has always played a special role in Ngwenya’s life because his father is from South Africa. The 1995 Rugby World Cup was held in South Africa and Nelson Mandela used the event, which South Africa won, as a major step in reconciliation between white and black South Africans.

“Since then, I’ve been devoted to rugby,” Ngwenya said.

Ngwenya played in three World Cups for the USA Eagles, the national team.

After playing in the World

Cup in 2007, he went to play professionally in France and returned and retired about six months ago. He came to Alaska for a tournament at the Alaska Mountain Rugby Grounds in Anchorage last weekend and has enjoyed taking in the splendors of Alaska, as well as the growth of rugby.

“The growth is amazing,” he said, mar veling at the 10 teams that showed up for a tournament in a small town in Alaska. “When I left for France, it was nothing like this.

“I made a career of this.

Hopefully, some of these kids can do the same.”

It may be a little late for Soldotna’s Jason Fitzgerald, 40, to make a career of rugby, but his story does show that starting the sport late works.

Fitzgerald, who has retired from the military, got started in the game four years ago when his son Deagan, now 11, joined a touch league.

Fitzgerald got hooked on the game fast and joined the Marine Corps team.

Eventually, he played in three tournaments with the Stars Rugby 7s. “ There are times in other sports where people’s anger gets the better of them,” Fitzgerald said. “Out here on the pitch, everybody is battling hard with big hits, but you’re able to finish the game and have a beer together.”

Fitzgerald’s presence in the center of the pitch was important as the Wolfpack pulled off a big 17-5 win over the Bird Creek Barbarians on Saturday.

Dan Balmer, president of the Wolfpack, said the last victory for his club was two years ago, but that came with three really good players from another team helping out.

The Wolfpack are traditionally undermanned — Saturday they had just 11 players — but they didn’t use players from other teams in the victory over

the Barbarians.

Ben Mohr of Soldotna had two tries in the victory, while Austin Danielson had one. Both are former Barbarians players.

The men’s title match saw the Manu Bears defeat Arctic Legion 21-0. Both Arctic Legion and Manu Bears had won two tourney titles coming into this year, so Manu now has the most titles in tourney history.

On the women’s side, the Touring in Training Side from the Midwest also picked up a third tournament title by defeating the Fairbanks Ravens.

The Touring in Training Side has come up for three of the four years the women’s tournament has been held.

Guerrero Jr. hits 1st grand slam, Blue Jays triumph DETROIT (AP) — Vladimir Guerrero Jr. hit his first career grand slam, a 441-foot drive toward the bushes at Comerica Park that helped the Toronto Blue Jays rally for a 7-5 victory over the Detroit Tigers on Saturday night.

Guerrero’s home run erased a 5-1 deficit in the fifth, and Brandon Drury added a two-run shot an inning later to put Toronto ahead.

Niko Goodrum and John Hicks went deep for the Tigers, who are 7-33 since the start of June.

Goodrum’s two-run homer in the second gave Detroit a 3-1 lead, but a 59-minute rain delay in the fourth knocked out both starting pitchers.

RED SOX 17, ORIOLES 6 BALTIMORE — Jackie Bradley Jr. hit a pair of three-run homers, Mookie Betts homered and had three RBIs, and Boston routed Baltimore with its most prolific offensive performance of the year.

Rafael Devers and Sandy Leon also went deep for the Red Sox. Bradley’s second home run of the game highlighted an eight-run fourth inning that turned a tie into a 13-5 runaway.

It was Boston’s highest-scoring outburst since a 19-3 rout of Baltimore last Sept. 26.

NATIONALS 5, BRAVES 3 ATLANTA — Aníbal Sánchez outpitched Mike Soroka and scored the go-ahead run in the fifth inning, Matt Adams homered and Washington beat Atlanta.

Second-place Washington pulled within 5½ games of the NL Eastleading Braves.

Sánchez (6-6) got a big assist in the bottom of the fifth when shortstop Trea Turner turned a bases-loaded double play. He allowed three runs and six hits.

ATHLETICS 5, TWINS 4 MINNEAPOLIS — Khris Davis lined a two-out, two-run single off the glove of diving first baseman Ehire Adrianza in the ninth inning and Oakland beat Minnesota.

The A’s won for the 21st time in 27 games. Miguel Sanó, Mitch Garver and Nelson Cruz all homered for the AL Central-leading Twins, who have lost five of six.

Minnesota reliever Taylor Rogers (2-2) retired the first two batters

in the ninth. But he then hit Mark Canha with a pitch and gave up a double to Ramón Laureano. Davis followed by going the other way, and Adrianza made a dive into the hole and tried to backhand the ball, but it deflected off his mitt and rolled into shallow right field.

WHITE SOX 2, RAYS 1 ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Yoán Moncada scored from first base on a single in the 11th inning and Chicago beat Tampa Bay. Moncada drew a walk off Adam Kolarek (3-3) to lead off the 11th, and sprinted around the bases when José Abreu punched a single into right field off Chaz Roe. Jace Fry (2-4) got the win in relief, and Alex Colomé pitched the 11th for his 21st save in 22 attempts.

YANKEES 11, ROCKIES 5 NEW YORK — Edwin Encarnación chased Anthony Senzatela with a two-run double in a five-run second inning, and New York beast Colorado for its fifth straight win.

New York went ahead when Aaron Judge doubled in a run on Senzatela’s 10th pitch and took a 9-0 lead by the fourth.

Encarnación added an RBI double in the seventh, and DJ LeMahieu raised his AL-leading average to .334 with three hits.

Nolan Arenado hit his 22nd homer as Colorado lost its sixth straight and for the 13th time in 15 games.

CUBS 6, PADRES 5 CHICAGO — Javier Báez hit a go-ahead, three-run homer and Cubs relievers combined for one-hit ball over the final four innings, lifting Chicago over San Diego.

Anthony Rizzo had two hits and drove in two runs and Robel Garcia added an RBI triple as NL Centralleading Chicago improved to 7-1 since the All-Star break.

Manny Machado hit a two-run shot for his 200th career homer and Fernando Tatis Jr. and Hunter Renfroe also connected for San Diego.

Jose Quintana (8-7) won his fourth straight start despite allowing five runs on eight hits and three homers in five innings. Closer Craig Kimbrel eaerned his sixth save.

San Diego starter Joey Lucchesi (7-5) allowed six runs on 10 hits in

4 1/3 innings.

METS 11, GIANTS 4 SAN FRANCISCO — Pete Alonso came off the bench and hit his 33rd home run, setting the Mets rookie record for RBIs as New York snapped San Francisco’s seven-game winning streak.

Dominic Smith, Jeff McNeil and Todd Frazier all went deep for the Mets. Walker Lockett (1-1) pitched five mostly sharp innings to earn his first major league victory.

Pablo Sandoval singled four times for the Giants. San Francisco (49-50) had won 14 of 16 and was attempting to get above .500 for the first time this season.

Alonso’s three-run homer off Derek Holland gave him 75 RBIs, one more than Darryl Strawberry had as a Mets rookie in 1983. Alonso already holds the franchise rookie records for home runs and extra-base hits.

Jeff Samardzija (7-8) allowed four runs and six hits in five innings.

Samardzija has lost all six career starts against the Mets.

REDS 3, CARDINALS 2 CINCINNATI — Yasiel Puig hit a game-tying double to end Miles Mikolas’ shutout bid, Josh VanMeter followed with his first major league home run and Cincinnati snapped a four-game losing streak with a win over St. Louis.

VanMeter and Eugenio Suarez each had two hits for the Reds.

Suarez led off the seventh with a walk and scored from first on a double into the left-center field gap by Puig.

Two pitches later, VanMeter hit a two-run homer into the Cincinnati bullpen down the right field line.

Mikolas (6-10) allowed six hits and three runs with two walks and four strikeouts. He also hit a batter.

Amir Garrett (4-1) pitched a perfect seventh in his first appearance since July 2 after coming off the disabled list on Saturday.

ROYALS 1, INDIANS 0 CLEVELAND — Hunter Dozier homered in the first inning and Jakob Junis pitched two-hit ball through six innings as Kansas City snapped Cleveland’s six-game win streak.

Dozier sent a 349-foot shot to right off Adam Plutko for his 15th home run. That run stood up as Junis and three relievers combined for a

three-hitter and the Royals’ fourth shutout of the season.

Junis (6-8) struck out seven and walked three before being removed after 94 pitches on a steamy evening with a heat index of 99 degrees at the first pitch. The right-hander did not allow a runner past second base.

Scott Barlow and Jake Diekman followed, while Ian Kennedy worked a perfect ninth for his 17th save.

Kansas City is 7-2 since the All-Star break, with Junis accounting for two of the victories.

Right-hander Plutko (3-2) worked a season-high seven innings, giving up two hits.

ASTROS 6, RANGERS 1 HOUSTON — José Urquidy threw seven dominant innings for his first major league win and Yuli Gurriel hit a three-run homer, sending Houston past Texas.

Making his third career start, Urquidy (1-0) held the Rangers to two baserunners — a homer by Shin-Soo Choo and an infield single

by Hunter Pence. The 24-year-old rookie right-hander from Mexico struck out nine.

Tony Kemp also homered as Houston won its fourth straight and handed Texas its sixth consecutive defeat.

PIRATES 5, PHILLIES 1 PITTSBURGH — Joe Musgrove scattered two hits over six innings, collected his first double of the season and scored on a textbook head-first slide to lead Pittsburgh over Philadelphia.

Musgrove (7-8) tied a season high with eight strikeouts, walked two and allowed only an unearned run in the sixth to win his third consecutive decision.

Starling Marte went 3 for 4 with a pair of doubles and an RBI, and Corey Dickerson added two doubles and an RBI as Pittsburgh won for just second time in eight games.

BREWERS 8, DIAMONDBACKS 3 PHOENIX — Mike Moustakas hit a three-run homer in the eighth and Milwaukee scored six runs after Zack Greinke left to beat Arizona.

Greinke, who also had a run-scoring double, allowed two runs and struck out nine in seven innings.

He moved into 29th on baseball’s

all-time strikeouts list, leaving with a 3-2 lead.

He was replaced by Andrew Chafin (0-2), who allowed an infield single and a walk to set the table for Moustakas’ 26th homer.

Keston Hiura had a two-run single in the ninth and Christian Yelich added a run-scoring double for his third hit.

Adrian Houser (3-4) allowed a hit in 1 1/3 innings and Eric Thames hit a solo homer for the Brewers, who have won four of five.

Greinke (2,548) passed No. 31 Tim Keefe (2,555) and No. 30 Jerry Koosman (2,556) on baseball’s all-time strikeouts list.

ANGELS 6, MARINERS 2 SEATTLE — David Fletcher singled home the tiebreaking run in the ninth inning, Mike Trout followed with a three-run homer and Los Angeles took advantage of a big mistake on defense by Seattle.

The Angels stopped a three-game skid.

With two outs in the ninth, the Mariners misplayed Luis Rengifo’s popup into an infield single that left runners at the corners. Fletcher’s single gave Los Angeles a 3-2 lead, and Trout connected off Roenis Elías (2-2) for his AL-leading 31st home run.

It was Rengifo who singled in the ninth Friday night for the Angels’ only hit, ending Mike Leake’s run at a perfect game.

DODGERS 10, MARLINS 6 LOS ANGELES — Matt Beaty broke an eighth-inning tie with a three-run homer and Los Angeles beat Miami after blowing a six-run lead.

Beaty’s drive to right-center on a changeup by Elieser Hernandez (1-4) bailed out the Dodgers’ bullpen and defense. Los Angeles led 6-0 through six innings after Clayton Kershaw had a season-high 10 strikeouts and allowed only two hits. Joc Pederson and Justin Turner provided the early lift on offense with home runs before the Marlins rallied to tie.

Miami took advantage of a Los Angeles bullpen that has struggled in middle relief and benefited from a pair of errors in a five-run eighth.

Starlin Castro homered in the seventh for the Marlins.

to open the trails to everybody.

Instead of just a 10K race, last year Beeson switched to 6K and 12k distances so more would race.

“One day I came out here by myself and got lost,” Brown said. “Mark Beeson spends a lot of time out on the course and does a great job.”

A big reason for the growth this year is the Tsalteshi Sprockets program, which started last year and teaches kids 16 and under how to mountain bike.

The brainchild of Jen Showalter, Jen Tabor and Amy Hogue, the program drew 45 last year and has about 70 riding this year. Showalter said there could have been more, but the number was capped because the program has

about 20 volunteer insructors.

In that first race that drew 91, 25 Sprockets raced, and 40 kids overall raced. If the kids ramble is included, that first night drew 99 riders.

Katie Tallent of Kenai got her sons Cooper TallentDarling and Sailor Tallent, both 11, involved in Sprockets last year. Katie also volunteers at the bike shack for the 10-night program.

Katie said the program keeps kids motivated and having fun by organizing riders into groups based on ability, with the chance to move up over time.

“It’s word of mouth,” Katie said of the popularity of the program. “After every class, the kids say, ‘This class was better than the last class.’”

Last summer, Cooper said he jumped at the opportunity to join the program because it was a chance to make new friends. The fun of the first

class quickly erased any nerves he had.

“I just like doing stuff all summer long and using all of my energy,” Cooper said.

Cooper finished second in the 6K race. Katie said that Tuesday classes preview the races for the riders, and also that Sprockets riders get to race for free.

“It gives you the skills to be prepared for the next race,” said Cooper, who has been riding his bike at least 5 miles a day for most of the summer.

Beeson, Brown, TallentDarling, Crawford and Thursday women’s winner Morgan Aldridge all agreed another factor keeping the Soldotna Cycle Series humming is Tsalteshi Trails.

“The versatility is amazing,” Brown said. “The hills are brutal. This was my first time doing singletrack. It was very frustrating and rough.”

riding the new singletrack at the Slikok Trails and the big downhills.

“The sled hill is my favorite,” he said of the large drop onto the soccer fields at Skyview Middle School.

More than just fresh riders are loving the trails. The system is on the go-to mountain biking database at trailforks.com.

“I tell people about the races all the time,” Aldridge said. “I’ll see people out here at lunch on trailforks and they won’t know about the races.”

Tsalteshi and Slikok combine to have about 7 miles of singletrack, with each trail system contributing about half to the amount.

Beeson said the Tsalteshi singletrack is designed to bypass the ski trails and thus can be ridden by everyone.

The Slikok singletrack has advancing levels of difficulty and has even veteran, advanced riders like Crawford stoked.

“They are spectacular,” he said.

The Slikok system, which lies to the south of Tsalteshi across Isaak Road, has come together fast.

Bill Holt, maintenance and development manager at

Tsalteshi, put in a one-mile multiuse loop in June 2017, then expanded the loops to 3 miles in June 2018. The Tsalteshi Trails Association then landed a Recreational Trails Program grant and the Slikok singletrack quickly followed.

“It happened fast because there was already an established and respected trails system,” Crawford said.

Since most of the singletrack went in after the freeze last fall, Crawford has organized Wednesday work groups to tidy up areas that lost form once the frost broke.

He said caring for the trails makes them even more fun to ride.

“The trails have actually become a mountain biking destination,” he said.

Slikok was supposed to take a longer time to happen, so it’s hard to know where mountain biking is headed now.

Crawford talks of dirt jumps, wooden features, pump tracks and some young riders getting good enough to earn college scholarships, but Beeson is keeping things simple.

“In terms of the Cycle Series, I want to keep it a good place, a good environment,” he said. “Obviously, it’s not

totally under my control, but I want to keep it a place where everyone can come out and participate.

“I don’t have goals beyond that.”

SET IN CONCRETE

Use your imagination to create easy, cheap-to-make planters from the material

By Holly Ramer

planters can be popped out of the molds.

I used a large cap from a container of laundry detergent for one of my inner molds, and was unable to remove it, probably because the surface had ridges and I didn’t get enough oil in them. I had much better luck placing a smooth plastic drinking cup inside a larger bowl. Overall, this method was fairly easy and I liked the smooth results and rounded shapes I produced.

Cost: 8 Ease: 7 Results: 8

Associated Press

CONCORD, N.H. — What’s the difference between cement and concrete? In my case, about $9, 55 pounds and a slightly sore back.

Though the two terms are often used interchangeably, cement is an ingredient in concrete, which also includes aggregates like sand, gravel or stone. I knew nothing about either product when I decided to try making some rustic/industrial planters suitable for small succulents. What I quickly discovered: This stuff is heavy. By far, the hardest part of this project was loading the materials into and out of my car.

I found tutorials online involving several types of molds filled with different products to create vessels in all kinds of shapes and sizes. I settled on three techniques, one using balloons to create round planters, one using plastic cups and bowls, and a third using a cardboard mold to make a faceted shape.

Though I only tried making planters, Pinterest led me to dozens more ideas, ranging from coasters and candle holders to bookends. Which is great, because with about 100 pounds of concrete and cement left over, I think lots of my friends and family will be getting chunks of concrete instead of lumps of coal in their Christmas stockings this year.

Here’s what I found, with each method rated from 1 to 10, with 10 indicating the least expensive, easiest and best results:

Balloons The creator of the website Artsy Pretty Plants has used concrete to make planters out of eggs, wine corks and even a sneaker, but I decided to try her tutorial for molding cement around a balloon. She recommends Rapid Set Cement All, which I found in a 25-pound box for about $15. That made this project the most expensive, but I found it the easiest to mix. I also liked the light color, and can envision using it for other projects.

This technique involves mixing the cement

Cardboard

Concrete planters can provide an industrial or rustic home for succulents and other small plants, and they’re inexpensive and fairly easy to make. Spherical planters can be fashioned by applying cement to balloons, and bowls and other plastic containers can be used as molds for smoother results. A cardboard template (top) was taped together to form the mold form an angular, geometric version.

with water and spreading it over half an inflated balloon set over a cup to hold it in place. Once dry, the process is repeated on the other side, leaving some of the balloon clear to form the opening of the planter. The balloon is later popped and removed.

I ran into a bit of trouble because the gloves I bought were too big, making it unwieldy to apply the cement evenly. While the multiple steps stretched this project out longer than the other methods, the cement set quickly.

The result was an intriguing shape and texture, definitely the most rustic of the three.

Cost: 6 Ease: 6 Results: 6

Bowls The Garden Therapy website includes instructions on making planters using plastic bowls, food storage containers, and odds and ends you might find in your recycling bin such as small plastic tubs or yogurt cups.

This method recommends topping or repair concrete. I used Quikrete Sand/Topping Mix, which cost about $6 for a 60-pound bag.

Vegetable oil is essential for oiling the molds. After being mixed with water, the concrete is poured into a mold, and then a second, smaller container filled with rocks or pebbles is set into it, to weigh it down.

Once the concrete hardens for 24 hours, the

Geometric, faceted shapes are popular in home decor, and I had high hopes for the tutorial I found at Gray House Studio , which features gorgeous furniture plans, tutorials and decorating projects.

This method required a bit of prep work: creating a mold out of cardboard. It was easy to put together and involved just taping together a series of triangles, but this would not be the method to use if you want to make a bunch of planters at the same time.

The recommended concrete, Quikrete Crack Resistant Pro Finish Concrete Mix, cost about $6 for 80 pounds, making this the most affordable technique. But, I found it harder to work with because it contained a lot of pebbles, and my finished product has some gaps where I didn’t completely fill the mold.

I also didn’t mix enough concrete to completely fill my mold, and had some trouble smoothing out the top, so my planter is not quite as even as the one featured in the tutorial. Marks from the tape I used on the mold also are evident, though it’s likely that I could sand the sides to minimize this. Overall, I am eager to try this method again using one of the other products, because I do like the modern shape it produces. I’d also like to just try filling the mold, without the smaller insert, to make a solid shape that could be used as a paperweight or bookend.

Gardeners, let’s praise the hoe

By Lee Reich Associated Press

Hopefully, I’ve caught you in time, before your weeds have grown lusty. I want you to consider the much maligned hoe.

Wait! Don’t stop reading. I know hoeing is the activity that (perhaps because they had to do it when they were young) makes too many adults give up gardening altogether. Hoeing was undoubtedly in Charles Dudley Warner’s mind when he wrote, over a hundred years ago in “My Summer in the Garden,” that what a gardener needs is “a cast-iron back with a hinge in it.”

But the bad rap that hoeing has among many people comes from using the wrong hoe in the wrong way at the wrong time. Gasoline- and electric-powered tillers have further eroded the art of the hoe.

In fact, hoeing can be a pleasant activity that does a better job of weed control than a tiller and leaves garden plants in better condition.

Save this one for the concrete The garden hoe that most people have hanging in their garages, and generally do not use, has a heavy rectangular blade that

is roughly 6 inches square and is mounted roughly perpendicularly to the handle.

I also own one of these rough hoes, but I do use mine — only for mixing concrete, a job for which this hoe is ideally suited. In the garden, people use this concrete hoe, as I’ll call it, with a chopping motion on large weeds. But we all know what happens when you chop the tops off dandelions or thistles: They grow right back and you get an achy back.

Better hoes To keep the garden weeded and the soil surface loose enough to let rainwater seep in, you want a more delicate hoe. The hoes I have in mind have small, sharp blades that are parallel to the soil surface when you grip the handle in a comfortable, upright stance. These hoes are relative newcomers to the garden scene, and include the scuffle hoe, colinear hoe, diamond hoe and — one of my favorites — the winged weeder.

None of these hoes that I am recommending requires a chopping motion or a cast-iron, hinged back. With blades that are sharp on both sides, these hoes cut through the soil on both the push and the pull strokes. Use them just this way, with the blade a hair beneath the

soil surface, as you walk backward as if you were using a sponge mop.

Newer on the scene is the “wire weeder.”

This one works best in loose soil that has been weeded by hand or hoe regularly. Under these conditions, the wire weeder is a joy to use; it’s like a stroll along your garden paths. Just walk along comfortably dragging the horizontal wire just beneath the soil surface. Sprouting weeds that you see and don’t see are uprooted to dry in the sun.

Use them correctly Using these hoes is so easy because you’re not moving a lot of soil. You’re cutting a slice just below the surface, and doing so with a sharp blade or a wire.

Not disrupting the soil also has future benefits. It leaves the roots of nearby garden plants unscathed. And buried within every soil are myriad dormant weed seeds just waiting to be awakened by light and air, which is what happens when rototilling or vigorous chopping with a concrete hoe brings buried weed seeds to the surface. The hoes I’m recommending hardly disturb the soil.

Timing is important. Any of these dainty hoes could slice the top off a large dandelion

Lee Reich / Associated Press

Used the right way at the right time, hoes are indispensable in the garden.The winged weeder (right) and the wire hoe are two of a few styles of hoe that are a pleasure to use as their sharp edges run along just beneath the surface of the ground.

plant, but what you’re really trying to do is attack young weeds. Small weeds do die when decapitated because their roots have not accumulated food reserves to re-sprout.

But you must hoe before weeds grow too lusty, and keep at it on a regular basis. That said, the activity is quick and pleasant.

Au pairs to get paid in class-action settlement

By Colleen Slevin Associated Press

DENVER — About 10,000 live-in childcare workers from around the world will share in a class-action settlement in a case that challenged whether they should be treated as employees entitled to minimum wage or members of the family learning about the United States while helping out at home.

U.S. District Judge Christine Arguello gave final approval to the $65.5 million deal Thursday during a hearing in Denver, saying the payments to au pairs who filed claims by the May deadline would average $3,500 each.

About 160,000 au pairs who came to the United States to work from 2009 to late 2018 under J-1 visas were identified as having the potential to receive money under the deal announced in January.

Notices were sent to nearly all of them, but about 10,000 filed claims by the May deadline.

About 40 percent of the deal will go to pay for administrative costs,

lawyers’ fees and other expenses.

Lawyers for Towards Justice, a nonprofit Denver law firm that filed the lawsuit in 2014, and the high-profile New York firm of Boies Schiller Flexner were not paid during the case.

The settlement also requires that 15 agencies authorized by the U.S. State Department to connect au pairs with families notify both parties going forward that au pairs can negotiate to be paid more than the minimum $195.75 a week required by the department. The minimum pay is based on the federal minimum wage of $7.25 for 45 hours of work minus a 40 percent deduction for room and board.

The agencies, the only ones that sponsored au pairs when the suit was filed, did not admit wrongdoing. One other company was later allowed to bring au pairs to the United States, but lawyers for the au pairs thought it was treating its au pairs more fairly, perhaps because of the pending lawsuit.

The lawsuit, brought by 11 au

pairs from Colombia, Australia, Germany, South Africa and Mexico, claimed the agencies colluded to keep their wages low, ignoring overtime and state minimum wage laws and treating the federal minimum wage for au pairs as the maximum they could earn.

In some cases, the lawsuit said, parents pushed the limits of their duties, requiring au pairs to do things like feed backyard chickens and help families move and not allowing them to eat with the family.

A handful of former au pairs submitted written comments to the court. Echoing allegations in the lawsuit, Alejandra Guadalupe Franyutti Ramirez of Queretaro, Mexico, said she was fired and given a short time to leave the country when she got sick soon after pushing back about her duties while serving as an au pair in Portola Valley, California.

Meanwhile, Eva Bein of Germany, described having a positive experience with her host family said she objected to the

settlement’s focus on pay, fearing it could hurt the cultural exchange mission.

She also said the deal should require sponsors to not only check on au pairs more often but remove host families who mistreat them, noting that agencies now act in the interest of the families who pay them fees to recruit au pairs.

The settlement comes amid a movement to protect the rights of domestic workers, who were originally excluded from federal labor protections. A handful of states have passed domestic worker bills of rights, and U.S. Sen. Kamala Harris and Rep. Pramilla Jayapal introduced a federal version this week.

The settlement did not address whether au pairs are entitled to higher minimum wages in states and cities that have set them above the federal minimum or whether families should be allowed to deduct room and board expenses, something that is generally not permitted when they are seen as a benefit to the employer. The

federal appeals court based in Boston is considering the wage issue in a case challenging Massachusetts’ inclusion of au pairs in its domestic bill of rights.

David Seligman, executive director of Towards Justice, said the settlement provides important reforms in the industry in addition to the payouts.

“The outcome reaffirms that everyone — including low-wage workers — has the right to a free and competitive marketplace,” he said.

The practice of having au pairs — French for “on par with” — developed in postwar Europe, where young people lived with families in other countries to learn a language in exchange for helping with childcare and some housework. In Europe, au pairs generally are limited to working 30 hours a week.

The concept came to the United States in 1986 when the State Department launched it as a cultural exchange program amid a growing demand for childcare.

Meet the newsroom: Homer Reporter Megan Pacer

By Kat Sorensen Peninsula Clarion

Megan Pacer has reported up and down the eastern Peninsula, starting as an Alaska journalist at the Peninsula Clarion before moving to the Homer News two years ago.

“At the Clarion, I was mainly the public safety reporter, covering crime, courts and breaking news. I was also the reporter covering the city of Soldotna, and did photography and design layout for the paper as well. Here at the Homer News, I’m the only full-time reporter,” Megan said.

As the sole reporter, Megan covers education, city government, local sports, crime and, sometimes, arts and entertainment.

She also handles the community announcements, obituaries, birth announcements and takes some of the photos in the Homer News.

“That’s pretty important because, without any one of the three people that work in this building, we just wouldn’t have a newspaper.

I feel a lot of people don’t realize there are only three employees at our office who work to put the Homer News together,” Megan said.

Megan doesn’t have a set schedule as a reporter, and spends her day where the stories take her.

“I don’t have a set 9-5 schedule so I start and end my days whenever the stories that I’m covering dictate. Sometimes it’s an early

morning to catch a boat across the bay, other times it’s late nights photographing a football game that goes into overtime or covering a city council meeting that goes late,” she said.

When she’s not working, Megan enjoys spending time with her cats, Moose and Bear, working on her photography business or finding new ways to be earth-friendly.

“This summer I started my first-ever compost and it feels great! One of my biggest interests is the death industry and learning about how we can all work to have a more eco-friendly death that helps the planet instead of hurting it,” she said. “Homer in particular is a great place to practice this as there several options for traditional burials.

Congratulations Jason!

We even have an artist who weaves ecofriendly caskets.”

This summer, she’s been enjoying the unseasonably warm weather through gardening and different trips through Alaska and Outside.

“Something that’s pretty important to me is staying in touch with friends and family.

Earlier this summer I took a long trip back home, rented a car, and made all around the Midwest to see most of the people who are most important to me,” she said. “Some of these are friends I’ve had since middle school. That felt amazing and was much needed. A real accomplish would be fitting in visits with the people I missed before the end of this year.”

When she does get the chance to visit her hometown in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, she’s in good company.

“The town where I grew up is home to a “humongous fungus.” Scientists discovered the homogenous fungus in the early 1990s, and at the time, it set the record for the largest single living organism. It stretches on under the ground for acres and weighs 440 tons, which is roughly equivalent to three blue whales,” Megan said. “Every year of my childhood, I helped celebrate this big mushroom by participating in the Crystal Falls, Michigan Humongous Fungus Festival, which still happens every year. I highly recommend it if you’re ever pay a visit to the Northwoods.”

Gull relatives

Mini Fact:

You Go, Gulls!

Terns are close relatives of gulls.

The mew gull has a greenish-yellow bill, a gray back and wings, and a white head. It lives around coastal shorelines, marshy grasslands and interior lakes.

Terns are generally smaller and slimmer than gulls.

Terns fly with their bills and heads pointed down. Gulls fly with their bills pointed forward.

Terns are Common tern more graceful than gulls. They are called “sea swallows.”

Terns eat only the fish they catch. They are not the scavengers that gulls are.

Pelicans are distant cousins of gulls.

They have long bills and sagging throats.

They are excellent fliers. Some fly hundreds of miles a day in search of food.

Pelicans eat mostly fish.

American white pelicans They use their throat pouches as nets. They can scoop up as much as two gallons of water.

Pelicans like to be together. They fly, roost, feed and breed in groups.

Pelicans can live long lives of up to 25 years. One pelican in a zoo lived to be 54 years old!

Feeding

Gulls usually follow the coastal shores in search of food.

Often they pick up an oyster or clam, fly up high, and drop the shell to the ground to smash it open.

Glaucous-winged gull Gulls catch much of their own food, such as fish, clams and worms. Larger gulls will eat animals such as rats and mice. Often, gulls eat the eggs and young of other birds, such as terns. You might have seen gulls eating picnic scraps or pieces of bread people have tossed into the air.

Many gulls follow farmers as they plow the fields. Gulls eat the worms, insects and mice the plows bring up. They will eat wheat and grain.

They also find food by scavenging, or eating dead fish and scraps. This ability to scavenge is why they have adjusted so well to dumps and waste sites.

Gulls help humans and the environment by cleaning up dead animals and garbage.

Gulls can drink salt water as well as fresh.

They have special glands in their heads to get rid of the extra salt.

Nesting

Most gulls build their nests on the ground near water. Some build nests on cliffs or in Laughing gulls trees. A few even build on rooftops and chimney stacks.

Both parents help hatch the eggs and feed the chicks. Females usually lay two or three eggs once a year.

After the breeding season, each mate goes its own way until it is again ready to breed.

Gulls often meet their Gull nest same mates and breed at the same nesting spot every year.

Gulls do not have nests when they are not breeding, but roost near food sources on offshore islands, sandbars or sheltered waters.

When we go to the beach or visit a harbor, we often see many “sea” gulls. There are about 45 different kinds of gulls. There are herring gulls, California gulls and ring-billed gulls, to name a few.

Even though gulls have webbed feet and can swim well, they rarely go far out to sea.

Many might follow boats in hopes of getting food, but most of these birds don’t fly out very far.

Gulls can also be found inland near rivers and lakes. The number of gulls is growing because many have discovered that garbage dumps are good sources of food!

Cook’s Corner

Waste and litter are a big problem in many cities.

City governments can help by providing recycling facilities and encouraging people to recycle. In some city districts in developing countries, waste is not collected. But materials such as cardboard and metal are valuable, so a lot of waste is recycled. Remember, it takes the same amount of energy to recycle 20 cans as it does to produce one new one. adapted with permission from “50 Things You Should Know

Girlfriend loves man and his dogs but draws the line at more

jeanne phillips Dear Abby furniture, and it’s a constant struggle to keep the place relatively clean from one day to the next, especially since I must also take care of my own house.

I’m a dog person, but three large dogs are already too much. I love the man, he is my best friend, and I love his dogs.

But I’m getting to the point where if he decides to have

DEAR GOING: I don’t think so. If he is truly kind, considerate and thoughtful, he will take into consideration that you are handling as much responsibility as you can shoulder and not insist on yet another litter. Because the last pregnancy was so hard on the female, it would be interesting to know what a veterinarian has to say about this. I’m wondering if your boyfriend may want to put her though this for money rather than love.

Jaqueline Bigar’s Stars HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Sunday, July 21, 2019: This year, you will experience many different people with various personalities. With some people, you could tumble into a power play. With others, communication flows.

If single, you could meet more than one person this year who you can relate to for a sustained period. Your biggest problem will be deciding who to relate to. You might date others until you become sure of yourself.

If you’re attached, the two of you need to avoid getting caught up in power plays and respect your different opinions. Express your sensitivity and relating will become easier.

PISCES understands your emotions, no matter how intense they might be.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult

ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHH Read between the lines to get to the bottom of what another person really wants from you. Your sensitivity comes to the rescue and allows what could be a difficult situation to flow into an easier one. Tonight: Wind down from the weekend.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH Friends surround you. As a result, others come toward you, and they would like to spend time with you. Confusion surrounds plans in the a.m., as people don’t agree on what to do. Remind them that it is the experience of togetherness that counts.

Tonight: Where you are, the party is.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Tension could evolve between you and an authority figure or older relative.

You would like to be fancy free, yet you feel you must meet another person’s request. Do not fight the inevitable. You will be happier.

Tonight: Up to the wee hours.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH Reach out for a friend or loved one at a distance. Some of you might opt to write a letter rather than call. Go off to the movies or a jam session where your mind cannot overthink. Tonight: Meet friends at a new restaurant.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH One-on-one relating is highlighted. How you feel in the company of another person could mark your plans and actions.

You will see another facet of this person. You cannot underestimate the importance of personal interactions in your life. Tonight: Be a duo.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Listen to a loved one even if you feel on some level that he or she is harping on you. You might need to acknowledge what this person is saying to get him or her to hush up. Tonight: Just don’t be alone.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHH You could have a project in mind, or perhaps a day trip. Though you are certainly a sign that enjoys companionship, you might opt to go alone. Much that is being said around you easily could annoy you at this point. Tonight: Get a good night’s sleep.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Do not underestimate your desirability and attractiveness. You have a lot to share, and share you will. You might, if single, meet someone of interest. Meanwhile, couples start to act like lovebirds. Tonight: Go for naughty.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHH You might be a sign that is not associated with being a homebody. Nevertheless, you can get into a few days at home. You might opt to invite a friend over. Be careful; a power play could ensue. Relax rather than being right. Tonight: Throw a spontaneous get-together.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Do not stand on ceremony. If there is someone you need to make amends with, call this person. The sense of relief that you gain will be well worth it. Do not be rigid about being right. Everyone has a different right. Tonight: Hang out.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH You might feel as if you are spending too much once you stop and eye the damages. Sometimes, money runs through your fingers as if it were water. Try to use more selfdiscipline. Tonight: Out with friends.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH You can be very emotional when pressured. Someone you look up to could be stubborn, difficult and possibly on the warpath. Try not to take his or her mood personally and continue being your own self. You could be amazed at what occurs. Tonight: Only what you want to do.

BORN TODAY Alexander the Great (356 B.C.), writer Ernest Hemingway (1899), comedian Robin Williams (1951)

DEAR ABBY: My father passed away a little over a year ago. Since then, I have started spending more time with my mother, and my husband does not like it. She is a huge help with our kids. On the day she gets them off the school bus, she will stay for dinner. Our kids love it when she’s here.

My husband now wants this to stop. He says it annoys him.

He gets angry when I talk to her on the phone, when I go to her house, when I help her with things — everything!

I am torn. I love my mother and don’t want my relationship with her to change. But every time I do anything with her, even have a quick conversation, my husband throws it in my face that I “put her before him.”

Please help me. I am not sure how much more of this I can

take.

— STUCK IN THE MIDDLE

DEAR STUCK: How often is your mother at your house, and how long does she stay after those dinners? How often did you interact with her before your father died? Have you been ignoring your husband in favor of interacting with your mom?

That he feels so encroached upon or threatened that he’s determined to alienate you from your widowed mother and is dictating how often you can visit or talk with her on the phone tells me he may be an extremely jealous and controlling person. This is such a red flag you should discuss it with a licensed marriage and family therapist. If he won’t agree to go with you, I urge you

Hints from Heloise How to handle a heated situation Dear Heloise: It’s hot in most parts of the country now, and the temperature inside a car is much hotter than that -- it’s deadly.

What should you do if you come across a DOG IN A HOT CAR when out and about?

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (www.PETA.org) has these hints: 1. Snap a picture or write down the license plate and make of the vehicle.

2. Tell the manager of the store or property. Have him page the owner.

3. Wait by the car and check on the dog.

4. When the owner comes out, politely but firmly tell the person about the dangers of leaving a dog in a hot car.

5. If the owner is a no-show, call 911. Let the police assist the dog.

Emily, dogs need a wet and soft nose; it helps them breathe and pick up scents more easily. Look online for any product labeled as “nose butter,” or a balm with “snout” in the name. Coconut oil is safe for a dog’s nose, but don’t use baby oil or medicated ointments.

Dry nose can arise from allergens, sunburn or dehydration. Or when the dog first wakes up, the nose could be dry.

If you observe these symptoms: fever, no energy, vomiting and dry eyes, along with the dry nose, get the dog to the veterinarian ASAP. — Heloise

Dear Heloise: I fill balloons with water to a tennis ball size, freeze them and fill a kiddie pool with them. Then, in go the drinks: bottles of beer, cans of pop and water bottles. This works well at a barbecue. When they melt completely, water-balloon fight!

We recycle all bottles and cans, and we dispose of the balloons safely, too: We cut the balloons into small pieces and put them in a bag that is sealed shut. Then we place the bag in the trash.

DEAR ABBY: My boyfriend and I have been together for a while. He is the kindest, most considerate and thoughtful man I’ve ever dated.

We do not officially live together but spend the majority of the week together, mostly at his house. He has three very large dogs we share the responsibility of caring for. They are not fixed, and he wants to have a litter of puppies (one of which he would keep). I strongly object for numerous reasons.

He has people willing to give them good homes, but the female (whom I am very attached to) had severe postpartum for more than a year after her last litter. His house is currently in the midst of an endless renovation, the dogs are always on the

Jacqueline Bigar’s Stars

ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH You might feel as if your efforts, especially toward the end of the day, will bring their just rewards.

A matter you have been subtly trying to work out might come to a conclusion earlier in the day. Tonight: Allow your feelings to guide you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH Trust your instincts and make important calls to touch base with key people in your life early on.

The results could be better than you

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHH You have been painfully aware of a monetary situation but have also made a decision not to head in a certain direction. You might rethink your decision today and decide to change gears. Tonight: Reach out for friends. Catch up on news.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH You might be feeling much more centered emotionally, but do not be surprised if a possessive facet of your personality emerges in the next 24 hours. Be willing to take a stand. Tonight: A must appearance.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Of late, you might have felt a little down. You will enjoy witnessing an innate upswing of mood and energy today or in the near future. You will feel able to take on a new project you have been eyeing.

Tonight: Schedule a little trip in the next few weeks.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH You can be remarkably restrained and self-disciplined. Nevertheless, you cannot always stay disciplined. If a dear friend or loved

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Defer to others at present. You have one person in your life who has an extremely loud voice.

Let this person have his or her way today. This person might not like the end results, but he or she might see some wisdom in allowing you to call the shots more often. Tonight: Out among crowds of people.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Your sensitivity levels are very high, and you do not even question them. Your creativity seems to have peaked or to be peaking. Go off and start manifesting some aspect of a dream you have not shared or manifested just yet.

Tonight: Do not sit on your duff; go for it.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21) HHHH You could defer to others, knowing full well when you have had enough and want to pull away.

The urge to free yourself and follow your whims seems rewarding late in the day. Tonight: Doing your thing.

Dear Readers: Today’s SOUND OFF is about the need to register animal abusers. — Heloise

Dear Heloise: Most companies have an annual job performance review, and as someone who conducts those reviews, I have a few suggestions.

Before you go in for your review: 1. Keep a list of all your successful tasks. Did you land a big sale? Did you create a new way of doing things or create something for your customers that improved sales or helped you reach a quota? Highlight your successes.

2. Be prepared to list your objectives and goals, and be able to explain why these are important goals to reach.

3. Don’t complain about co-workers or anything that places you in a negative light. Think in positive terms. If something went wrong, what did you learn from it?

4. If you have any concerns, be ready to discuss them honestly, but use caution in your words so that you are not blaming or shaming anyone.

Tonight: Do not be upset at some tension. This, too, will pass.

HHH Tap into your imagination to find the appropriate answer to make a situation involving a child or loved one work. You could surprise yourself with solutions as you delight others. Tonight: Up late.

hints from heloise Dear Heloise: There’s no excuse for animal cruelty, yet sadly, it seems to be on the increase.

It’s only reasonable that we make it compulsory for animal abusers to register on a national list — a central database where all that information is stored, with easy access for people and companies that need to check to see if someone is convicted of animal abuse.

“There are some cities, counties and states that have already enacted this requirement, but we need to make it a national law, along with longer prison terms and stiffer fines. We need to ensure that animal abusers are never allowed to own a pet again or to work around animals in any capacity.

This year, you eye situations from many different viewpoints as you look to make a decision. If single, you could lose an opportunity with this process to hook up with someone genuinely interesting. Allow more impulsiveness in your life. You cannot weigh the pros and cons of every situation. If you’re attached, you seem to empathize more with your sweetie as you understand him or her more and more. This thoughtfulness will draw you even closer together. ARIES can be pushy.
