‘Overwhelming’ support for family after crash More than $25,000 raised in 24 hours for mom, daughter severely hurt in Christmas Day wreck

By Rashah McChesney Peninsula Clarion

To contribute:

Well-wishers have donated more than $25,000 in 24 hours to an Anchor Point woman and her 11-year-old daughter who were hospitalized with life-threatening injuries following a Christmas Day wreck near Anchor Point.

Mathany Christine Satterwhite, a pregnant 29-year-old woman, and her daughter Angelica Haakenson were both flown to Anchorage for medical treatment after Satterwhite’s truck broke down on the side of the Sterling Highway as the two headed home from a Christmas dinner.

Another Anchor Point resident, Nathan Sargeant, had stopped in front of Satterwhite’s truck to jump-start it when a third vehicle slid into them.

Satterwhite, standing in front of the truck connecting jumper cables, was thrown into the ditch

by the impact. Angelica, however, was pinned between the truck and Sargaents van. She had to be extricated, suffering multiple spinal fractures and ultimately loosing both of her legs above the knee during an emergency surgery a few hours later, said her aunt Emily Haakenson.

The driver of the vehicle that collided with the

two stopped vehicles was another Anchor Point man, Larry Pyatt. He and Sargaent suffered minor injuries in the crash, according to an Alaska State Troopers report.

As word of the accident spread, family members set up accounts for donations and friends began organizing art auctions and charity events to benefit the two. More than 350 people donated $26,400 in 24-hours on a GoFundMe donation page that Emily Haakenson set up. Angelica’s goofy grin dominates the page, which has been shared more than 1400 times.

“Thousands of people have come forward offering what they can to contribute to (Angelica’s) recovery,” Emily Haakenson wrote in a message. “Whether it’s a prayer, well wishes, lodging, food, rides, plane tickets, donations, or one of the many, many other ways people have offered to help, we cannot express enough how See WRECK, page A-2

hen the Funny River wildfire broke out on May 19, the wind-driven blaze threatened thousands of homes between Funny River and Tustumena Lake. It took several million dollars and nearly 800 personnel to contain the northern and western edges of the blaze and steer it further into the wildlife refuge, away from local communities.

All-told, the fire consumed nearly 200,000 acres of Kenai National Wildlife Refuge land.

For some residents of the Kenai Peninsula, the looming threat was a wake-up call, a reminder that living near the 1.92 million acre Kenai National Wildlife Refuge requires heightened fireawareness.

“People kind of know it in the back of their minds, but I think there’s still a sense of ‘this isn’t going to happen to me,’ said Kenai Peninsula Borough Health and Safety Officer Brad Nel-

son. “But sometimes it does happen to you.”

The Funny River Wildfire wasn’t the first wildfire to threaten Kenai Peninsula residents.

A lighting-sparked fire burned several thousand acres on the Southern Peninsula in 2005. Another in 2007 burned about 50,0000 acres and nearly 200 structures. In 2009, the Shanta Creek Wildfire started on the Kenai Peninsula Wild-

fires refuge and it burned more than 13,000 acres.

The population continues to grow on the Kenai Peninsula — up from about 25,000 in 1980 to nearly 60,000 in 2010, according to U.S. Census Bureau data. The fire season, and dangers associated with it, arrives at about the same time every year and for some of those new to the area, the fires come as a surprise, others are prepared. “We’ve seen

people prepared to bug out at a moment’s notice,” Nelson said. “They’ve got their clothes and important belongings in one spot, ready to be taken quickly.”

The borough’s Rapid Notify Self Registration for emergency notifications, an automated phone alert system for emergency notifications, saw a rush of new users during the fire.

Lawmakers call on Walker to reign-in budget Governor faces $3.5 billion budget deficit, dropping oil prices in current fiscal year

By DAN JOLING Associated Press

ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Alaska’s legislative leaders are calling in Gov. Bill Walker to immediately address budget worries brought on by the falling price of oil.

Legislative leaders called for a hiring freeze in all departments, limits on state employee travel and an accounting of spending through the fiscal year’s first six months to deter-

mine if agencies have resources that could be reduced.

In a letter dated Tuesday, Senate President-elect Kevin Meyer, House Speaker Mike Chenault and the co-chairmen of the House and Senate finance committees said the most critical issue before the Legislature is Alaska’s long-range financial outlook.

“The immediate concerns of a $3 billion deficit and our ability to protect the state’s credit rating from damage and dete-

rioration will take center stage when the Legislature convenes in January,” they wrote.

Walker spokeswoman Grace Jang said by email Friday that Walker appreciated the letter and shared a concern for action. Walker and his budget team have been in almost daily meetings, she said.

“He will ask commissioners, state employees and the public to weigh in on where we should make cuts,” Jang said.

Walker on Dec. 15 submitted

a stripped-down capital budget as a starting point for addressing the bleak revenue forecast.

The state is projecting a $3.5-billion budget deficit for the current fiscal year, which ends June 30, amid lower-thanexpected oil prices. The state project a $3.2-billion hole for 2016 even at the levels laid out in reduced budget submissions.

Walker’s operating budget, required to be submitted by Dec. 15, was prepared by his predecessor, former Gov. Sean

Parnell, and Walker has not endorsed it. After collecting suggestions from the public, he plans to submit revised spending plans by Feb. 18.

The legislative leaders called for changes to be made sooner.

“Once the gavel falls on January 20, we have 90 days for consideration of the people’s business,” they wrote. “Both Houses of the Legislature consider the fiscal crisis as our top priority.”

Kenai shelter closing drop-off kennels

By Ian Foley Peninsula Clarion

The Kenai Animal Shelter’s after hours drop-off kennels will no longer be available for use as of December 31.

The outdoor kennels, which have been available for over a decade, allow people to dropoff stray or unwanted cats and dogs when the shelter is closed.

The kennels are being removed because people have provided insufficient information about the animals. Also, weather conditions could be dangerous to animals left outside.

According to information released by the City of Kenai, the shelter took in 326 animals in 2013 from the after hours dropoff kennels alone. Currently, there are three kennels for dogs and two for cats.

Kenai Animal Control Officer Stacie Mallette said that the kennels were originally intended as a last resort for when someone needed to put an animal in a kennel quickly. However, she said that it has become an easy way for people to get rid of a pet.

“The drop-offs are very handy, but they aren’t being used effectively,” Mallette said.

Mallette said that when people leave animals in the after hour kennels, they rarely leave information about the pets, which makes adopting them out to a suitable family more difficult.

If provided with information such as the animal’s age, temperament and health, Mallette said that the shelter could place the animal in a family more easily.

“The more information we have on an animal, the quicker we can adopt it out,” Mallette said.

When no information is provided, the shelter doesn’t know if an animal is unwanted or a stray. If there is no information, the shelter brings the animal in and keeps it at the facility it for 72 hours before adopting it out in case an owner claims it.

Another reason for the kennel’s closure is to prevent animals being exposed to dangerSee SHELTER, page A-2

. . . Fire Continued from page A-1

Before the Funny River Fire, more than 800 were registered to use the system. That number tripled during the Funny River Fire when more than 2,600 people registered to receive alerts, according to the borough’s office of emergency management.

Many of the people who registered were from outside of the Funny River community.

“The Funny River area saw this back with (the) Shanta Creek (fire), so they’re pretty well prepared. What has joined is that Kasilof and highway area where the communities are growing rapidly,” Nelson said.

The proximity of the fire put the danger that the forefront of some people’s minds.

“We’ve had people firewising their property,” he said.

“We saw people clearing trees, getting leaves out of their rain gutters — which is just tinder waiting to happen — getting logs away from their homes, getting bushes scaled back.”

Some called Central Emergency Services to make sure their properties were easier to find.

“In some cases, their houses are not on the map system.

They’re off the beaten path. It looks like a game trail and it’s a driveway to their house,” Nelson said.

thankful we are.”

The volume of donations has been overwhelming, Emily Haakenson said.

Both Satterwhite and her unborn baby survived. Angelica Haakenson underwent another surgery Saturday afternoon to clean up her amputations.

“The accident happened at about 6 (p.m.) on Christmas night. When she was finally medevaced to Providence (hospital in Anchorage) it was midnight or 1 a.m.,” Emily Haakenson said.

“They had to wait a little bit for her to stabilize before they could get her into surgery and they had to perform surgery as soon as they could to get her legs off, because they were so damaged. But they had to keep the surgery as short as possible and they left them open. Today, they’re going in and cleaning them up because there’s a lot of debris in there.”

The young girl has woken up from her Saturday surgery and Satterwhite has been able to walk, according to a Facebook community called “Mathany and Angelica Updates” that has been set up for the two. “(Angelica) has woken up a few times,” Emily Haakenson said. “She’s been heavily sedated. I think the longest she’s been awake is 20 minutes.”

The young Chapman Elementary School student cannot speak as she has a breathing tube, but she did motion for a pen and paper upon waking.

“Her first questions were, how did it happen and how is my mom?” Emily Haakenson said. “Even when she was told about her legs, her main concern was making sure that her mom was OK. One thing that was great to see was one of the messages that she wrote to her stepmom, asking her if she’s OK. She wants to make sure that her mom and her stepmom and her dad, who are there, are OK.” The girl then asked to see her friends and cousins.

Two artists, Homer-based Chelsea Horn and Soldotnabased Karrie Hill, are auctioning their work via Facebook to donate to Angelica Haakenson’s recovery. Thus far, nearly $1400 has been offered for their pieces.

As the attention pours in, family members have shown the girl some of the messages sent by well-wishers.

“She wants to know that people are contacting her mother as well,” Emily Haakenson said. “She wants to know that her mom is being thought of also.”

On May 25, when a strong south wind pushed the fire toward the community of Funny River and Steve McClure’s property, his family learned the lesson of preparedness firsthand.

The McClure’s five-acre property on Killey Street borders the Kenai River. On that warm, windy day, it became a battleground for CES firefighters who faced a wall of flames several hundred feet high as they stood at the back of the property. Cars, trucks and trailers laden with belongings streamed from the area as firefighters attempted to keep the fire from jumping the Kenai River and pushing into Sterling.

Firefighters moved McClure’s furniture, cleared brush and prepared to make a stand in one of the outbuildings on his property before the whole area was doused in flame retardant foam. Black Hawk helicopters scooped water from the nearby river, wetting everything down and chasing errant flames. Ultimately the McClure property — and every other home on the cul-de-sac was saved.

It was a close call for McClure.

“It’s a really helpless feeling. You’re worried about going out there and checking on your stuff. You don’t know what’s going on,” he said. “I went out there that morning and tried to get out what I could. That’s kind of hard too. What do you take? What do you leave?”

While the McClure family lived on the property full time, they now live on Robinson Loop and use their Funny River property primarily for McClure’s guiding business.

Despite the close call with the Funny River blaze, McClure said the family hasn’t changed much on the Funny River prop-

ous elements. While there is a sign that states animals should not be left when temperatures are sub-zero, Mallette said that people commonly ignore it.

“We’ve had people leave animals out there at 10, 15, 20 below,” she said.

Marianne Clark, an Animal Control Officer at the Soldotna Animal Control, said the Soldotna facility used to have after hours drop-off kennels, but closed them down many years ago. She said one of the reasons Soldotna no longer uses after hour kennels was because children started playing in them

erty except what he leaves there during the summers.

“Guidebooks, fishing equipment. I’d leave whatever it took to get going in the summer time,” he said. “After that, I wouldn’t leave them out there now.”

For Erik and Catherine Huebsch, the wildfire was a visitor they’d expected for a long time at the Bear Creek cabin.

“We knew it was going to happen,” he said. “We had 2 million acres of fuel around us up there and we were expecting a fire. We were the only property owners out there that had our own pump and hose and sprinkler setup and I had it running before any of the fire crews showed up.”

The Bear Creek subdivision is a remote-access area on the northern shore of Tustumena

Lake and the Huebschs, who live on Kalifornsky Beach Road, took a boat out to their property and spent days working to protect it from the looming flames. The wildfire got within one-quarter mile of their home.

“The whole area really needed to burn,” Erik Huebsch said. “It had been practically 100 years since it burned and that’s sort of the natural way of things.”

The couple learned to protect their property following the 2004 Glacier Creek Fire. It burned more than 6,000 acres and came within four miles of their property. The experience made a huge difference in how they treated the property.

“We put a lot of effort into putting the firewise treatment out there,” he said. “We thinned

and once a child was accidentally locked inside a kennel.

Clark said that there are many reasons people use after hour drop-off kennels, but she believes one of the biggest is to avoid paying the fees associated with giving up a pet.

According to its website, the Soldotna Animal Control charges up to $25 to drop-off an animal. Mallette said that Kenai’s Animal Shelter charges up to $15.

Mallette said that people also might be ashamed about bringing an animal to the shelter.

“A lot of people are scared to (come inside the Animal Shelter) and say they’re giving up their dog, but you need to,” Mallette said. “It’s OK if you have to give up your dog, just

give us some information.”

during the Funny River fire, Huebsch said, was that their pumps needed constant attention.

“There’s kind of a weird thing that was happening here to not only our pump system but the fire crew also,” he said.

“There’s this algae in the lake and ... the more the wind would blow, the more algae would get stirred up and the intakes on the pump would clog. It was just a struggle to keep everything functioning.”

Several people in the Funny River community said the wildfire made them rethink a decade-old discussion the community had on building a bridge over the Kenai River and connecting the area to Sterling.

“That’s what I reflect on from the fire,” McClure said.

“That’s the biggest thing. When we had the fire, I think about that bridge and think, ‘man it would be a lot easier if there was a bridge there.’”

While some residents worked to make their homes and properties safer, Nelson said human nature is such that as memories of the Funny River Fire fade so too will the zeal for fire safety and alertness.

“What I’m expecting is that as the population grows ... those new people are going to be taken by surprise the next time this happens because it’s inevitably going to happen again. We have vast swaths of areas that have not burned in a long time and keeping that in mind and always being prepared is necessary. It’s not just wildland fires you have to be aware of. It’s earthquake danger, flood danger, locusts, brimstone, just being ready is always a good thing.”

When firefighters and smokejumpers again landed on the shores of the subdivision, the Huebschs had their own property soaked and were ready to help.

“They dumped thousands of pounds of gear and equipment on the beach that was brought in by the refuge landing craft,” he said. “Catherine was running our four-wheeler and trailer, hauling it all out and spreading it around for the whole crew.”

The Kenai Animal Shelter’s after hours drop-off kennels will be closed later this month.

Shelter employees said the drop-off allowed people to leave animals in freezing temperatures, despite signs warning them against doing so. There is a fee of $15 to give up a pet to the city’s animal shelter.

Obituary Patricia Ann Lavelle Lawlor Patricia Ann Lavelle Lawlor, 86, died Sunday, Dec. 21, 2014 in Anchorage.

A celebration of life mass is planned for July.

Patricia Ann Lavelle was born Feb. 16, 1928 in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, to Michael and Winifred (Murrin) Lavelle. After high school, she attended the Mercy Hospital School of Nursing In Davenport, Iowa. She was named Iowa School Nurse of the Year in 1949. After graduating from nursing school, she worked for the Veterans Administration in St. Louis, and earned her private pilot’s license. After St. Louis, she became a partner in the Wilton Nursing Home in Wilton, Iowa.

While vacationing in Alaska she fell in love with the land and a farmer named Joseph Lawlor. In 1954 they married and moved outside of Fairbanks, where they homesteaded a piece of land at the end of what is now Lawlor Road. They raised nine children in the cabin they constructed. Patricia worked as an emergency room nurse at St Joseph’s Hospital in Fairbanks.

She also worked as a school nurse at Joy Elementary School and then as public health nurse.

In the mid 1970s the family moved to southern California where she worked for the San Bernardino County Health Department. She also spearheaded the California/Hawaii Elks Major Project program to get all preschool children in the state vision-tested before kindergarten.

Patricia and Joe returned to Alaska in 1986 and served as volunteers at St. Mary’s Catholic School in the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta. After St. Mary’s closed, she continued with the Jesuit Volunteer Corps in the Anchorage area. In 1988, she and Joe made their home in Homer, where they lived for many years.

After her husband died she moved to Soldotna in 2006.

The last years of her life were dedicated to reopening the family gold mine near Circle Hot Springs, and arguing politics with her family. She will be remembered for her wicked sense of humor.

Her survivors include: daughters, Maureen and Ann Lawlor, Sheila Gallagher and Ellen Lawlor Krsnak; and sons, Michael, John, Tim, Thomas and Patrick Lawlor and their families, which include 14 grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.

She was preceded in death by her parents; husband; and sisters, Rita, Winifred, Pauline, and Geraldine.

Arrangements were cared for by the Anchorage Funeral Home. Please visit Patricia’s obituary and online guestbook at www.AlaskanFuneral.com.

Charlene Frances Paight-Smith Charlene Frances Paight-Smith, 57, of Ninilchik, passed peacefully, after battling cancer, at Central Peninsula Hospital in Soldotna on Thursday, Dec. 18, 2014.

A celebration of life and potlatch will be 3 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 24, 2015 at the Ninilchik Fairgrounds. Shannon Bentley will officiate.

Charlene was born Aug. 29, 1957 in Yuba City, California.

Charlene, aka Charlie, grew up in Del Mar/San Diego, California, and also lived in Arizona, Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Missouri. She obtained her AA in psychological counseling so she could help those in recovery. She was an award winning (amateur and professional) jewelry designer/artist and owner of “The Frances~Rose” (Alaskan Gifts & Jewelry). Her work is known worldwide. Pottery, candle-making, and writing were some of her other passions, but enlightening people and sharing the love of Jesus was her biggest passion of all.

Charlene had a gift of being able to love the unlovable whether they wanted her to or not. She just never gave up on

them! She helped and gave freely to those in need, no matter the need, even when she herself had very little to give. She always said, “You cannot be blessed unless you bless others.” Kind of a “pay-it-forward” if you will. Her love was the purest unconditional, non-judgmental kind of love and anyone who knew her, however little or long, knows this to be true. People of all walks of life, from all over the states and the world would come into the shop or her booth and say, “I don’t know why I am here, but I felt I had to come.” This happened often, and she always took this as a sign they were in need of a hug and some spiritual intervention or introduction. She never missed the opportunity to invite them in for a cup of coffee and just listened. Then she would share a related experience of her own and share how her faith and beliefs have helped her through. She helped people find hope and taught all of us that you don’t have to be perfect to know and love Jesus. She lived humbly, loved everyone and gave often. Charlene touched the lives of everyone she met.

This world is a better place for having had her in it, if only for a blink of an eternal eye.

She was preceded in death by daughter, Roxanne Herndon; parents, Victor J. and Frances N. Rocco; brother, Robert S. Bentley.

She is survived by her loving husband, Tad Smith; daughter and son-in-law, Joleen and Dustin Holt; son, Lewis Herndon; sisters, Vicki Jo Rocco, Kari and Tammy Rocco, LaVerna Manning, Laura Bentley; spiritual sister, Peggy Murphy; brothers, Richard Rocco, David Ellsworth, Bill Elliott; mother and husband, Laura Trunnell-Lee and Jim Lee; daughter-in-law, Mary Fairall-Herndon; grandchildren, Cody, EmmaLew, Daniel and Audry Herndon; uncle and pastor, Shannon Bentley; and many friends and customers.

In lieu of flowers, the family is accepting contributions toward a memorial gazebo. For more info, please contact Joleen Holt at 907-398-2469 or on Facebook where an address will be posted.

For 2015, resolve to be a better community member With the New Year just a few days away, many of us are contemplating resolutions. Setting goals in your personal and professional life are important, and we hope you’re able to stick with them. But we’d also like to encourage civic-mindedness in 2015, and with that in mind, here are some other things we encourage Kenai Peninsula residents to resolve: — Vote. The election calendar is much lighter this year than in 2014. The city of Soldotna will hold a special election Feb. 3 to decide whether to form a charter commission to write a home-rule charter, and to elect commission members. City and borough elections are the first Tuesday in October. Seats on the borough assembly, board of education and city councils will be on the ballot.

A proposition regarding sales tax collected on groceries will be on the ballot; additional measures may qualify for the ballot, too.

— Attend a public meeting. Or several. All too often, it seems people show up for meetings only to complain after a decision has been made. Meanwhile, there are plenty of good seats available at most public meetings.

There are plenty of public meetings in addition to city council, school board and assembly meetings — service area boards, Fish and Game advisory committees, city commissions, legislative town hall sessions, just to name a few. These are the bodies that influence policy or make decisions that hit closest to home. Be there to keep an eye on the decision-making process. It’s much more effective than complaining after a measure has been passed.

—Submit public comment. As many public meetings as there are, there are even more councils, committees and agencies looking for input on everything from fishing regulations to budget priorities to pending legislation.

Chances are that someone is looking for feedback on a topic with which you are familiar. Share your opinion.

Public officials frequently make decisions based on input from just the few people most passionate about an issue.

The vast majority of Alaskans are silent on most issues.

We’re fortunate to live in a place where government officials are accessible and responsive. Take advantage of that access to help shape public policy.

— Last, but certainly not least, volunteer. There may be no greater way to contribute to the community in which you live than to share your time and talent. Volunteer opportunities abound on the central Kenai Peninsula. Commitments can be as little as an hour or two here and there, or as involved as joining the board of a non-profit organization. Every contribution helps. Participate in a community clean-up day, read to children at a school (you don’t have to have kids that go there), help at a water station for a local race, walk dogs at the animal shelter, help organize a community-wide event, spend a day helping at the food bank, drive patients to cancer treatment sessions, coach a youth sport (you don’t have to have a kid to be involved in that one, either), get involved in your church, spend a few days swinging a hammer on a Habitat for Humanity house — there’s plenty to do, and many hands make light work.

We wish everyone a healthy and prosperous 2015. And we encourage everyone to take the time to make our community healthy and prosperous in the year ahead, too.

Midwestern govs build credentials for 2016

By THOMAS BEAUMONT Associated Press

MADISON, Wis. — One group of potential candidates for president probably won’t be shuffling off to Iowa, New Hampshire or other early campaign spots in the new year. They’ll be hunkered down in statehouses across the Midwest, pushing bills through their legislatures.

Few outside their home states will notice, but these governors and their policies could wind up in the national campaign picture.

Scott Walker of Wisconsin, Mike Pence of Indiana, Rick Snyder of Michigan and John Kasich of Ohio were all elected after Republicans began taking political control of the middle of the country back in 2010. Since then, they have offered a glimpse of what some conservative policies would look like if put into wider effect.

Should any of these governors join the race for the White House, their state records would become their chief qualification for higher office and might provide some distance from partisan battles in Washington. The governors could also benefit from being in a region rich with swing states.

“All those governors have stories of success to tell and stories about crisis management,” said veteran Republican presidential strategist Charlie Black.

Here’s a look at what the four Midwestern governors are planning in 2015, and how they would be positioned to seek the presidency.

Mike Pence, Indiana Pence, a former congressman and a popular figure among social conservatives, is working to reshape the state’s public education system. The goal is to allow virtually any child to attend any school, public or private, with public money.

Indiana’s school-choice initiative — the nation’s most extensive — was begun by Pence’s Republican predecessor, Mitch Daniels. Pence is pushing to expand it this year by lifting income caps for families seeking state money to send their children to a private school.

Pence also wants to allow more parents in five pilot counties to choose their children’s preschool. And he wants the Legislature to increase money for charter schools, which are publicly funded but operate outside the normal public education system.

Since Indiana’s school choice system went into effect in 2011, almost 5 percent of Indiana students are using vouchers to attend private schools or charter schools.

Critics argue that the effort is siphoning off needed money from public schools.

But conservatives insist the competition is good for families and spurs education improvement overall.

If he runs, Pence’s education record

AP News Extra would be a popular talking point, especially in Iowa, site of the first presidential caucuses, which is a hotbed of home schooling.

And Pence, 58, has other credentials. He is highly regarded by the Christian right, having been an outspoken evangelical on a radio show he hosted during his time in the U.S. House.

Rick Snyder, Michigan Snyder may already have the flashiest record of any Midwestern governor, but his achievements are also the trickiest to tout in a Republican presidential primary.

Snyder pushed his state’s financially wrecked metropolis, Detroit, into federal bankruptcy court, a task that some people thought would take years, if it could be done at all. A year and a half later, the city emerged with a lighter debt burden, though still facing many difficulties.

That feat alone would give Snyder, a former computer company executive, unrivaled credibility as a turnaround artist. But to seal the Detroit deal, he had to commit $195 million in state money, making him a target for anti-spending conservatives in a national campaign.

Otherwise, he’s been shaking up taxes, eliminating the state’s corporate tax and proposing to raise others, like the fuel tax, to fix the state’s crumbling roads. In the coming session, he’ll try to expand technical education to help fill more than 70,000 openings for skilled jobs.

Snyder’s willingness to stray from conservative orthodoxy — he expanded Medicaid despite his party’s stand against President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul — would make him suspect to the GOP’s right wing. But bottom-line Republicans could be impressed by the 300,000 privatesector jobs created on Snyder’s watch, an unemployment rate that dropped from 11.3 percent to 6.7 percent and a right-to-work law that made union membership optional.

Should he run, Snyder might join the “practical” candidates in the GOP field, such as New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush.

“He’s got a phenomenal record in a very difficult state,” said fellow Republican Gov. Terry Branstad of Iowa.

Scott Walker, Wisconsin Already renowned by conservatives for his willingness to challenge organized labor, Walker is setting out to beef up his conservative record on both fiscal and social policy.

Walker is calling on his GOP-controlled Legislature to reduce income and property taxes. He’s also condemned Wisconsin’s adoption of Common Core school standards. Though once popular on the right, the standards are now shunned as government overreach.

Walker’s legislative agenda for 2015 includes another conservative favorite: requiring recipients of food stamps and unemployment benefits to pass a drug test.

So far, he has resisted a more ambitious plan by leading Republican lawmakers to pass right-to-work legislation, which could trigger a fierce union backlash and possibly add weeks to the legislative session.

His coolness toward this pro-business priority is unlikely to cost him in a national campaign, though, because of his success in stripping his state’s public-employee unions of most of their bargaining powers soon after taking office.

John Kasich, Ohio Kasich made his mark in the U.S. House as a fiscal hawk while serving as chairman of the House Budget Committee. And while he has also confronted organized labor, he is known more as a social moderate and a spending-control crusader.

The former Ohio congressman has said he will keep trying to reduce the state’s income tax toward its elimination and enact job training. He plans to test a national message advocating a federal balanced budget amendment before making a decision on whether to run in 2016.

Among conservatives, he’ll also get credit for trying to strip public employee unions’ bargaining rights to reduce pressure on the budget, but voters later repealed his legislation through a referendum.

Should he run, Kasich could join Bush in the center of the GOP field.

“I don’t think you’ll see him jetting off to Iowa or New Hampshire very soon,” said Kasich confidant Doug Preisse. “But some will say the balanced budget amendment is a different way of seizing the national spotlight.”

Set net ban based on conservation The initiative to ban set nets in urban areas of Alaska is an environmental issue.

It is about protecting fish stocks and other sea animals from an outdated, harmful type of fishing gear. Set nets are simply a wall of death.

Eight other states have voted to eliminate or enacted stringent limitations on these set nets after witnessing the environmental and ecological damage these nets cause. Set nets are notorious for snagging unintended victims or “by-catch.” Anything that passes near these nets can get tangled, including species that are threatened or in decline, such as our precious Kenai king salmon that have seen a dangerous drop in numbers. In fact, set nets have the highest rate of by-catch of any fishing method allowed in our state waters, meaning that their impact on ecosystems is very damaging.

Opponents of this initiative will argue that the proposed set net ban is about trading 2,300 set net-caught kings for 157 sport-caught kings and losing out on the money from a profitable commercial industry. The math is faulty.

Kenai King salmon populations have declined by 80 percent over the last decade and the set net fishery has contributed to their dwindling population with increasing rates of Kenai king salmon by-catch.

Both the sport and the set net fisheries have endured forced closures over the last three years due to alarmingly low Kenai king escapement numbers.

Sport fisheries also endure strict and enforced gear limitations throughout the C

have significantly lower rates of by-catch kings and are more environmentally responsible. The drift net fleet in Cook Inlet does a remarkable job at keeping by-catch levels low.

In Washington and Oregon, fishing permit buyback programs have ensured that fishery management decisions do not adversely impact the economic wellbeing of the community. Alaska has plenty of options — we just need to be progressive and forward thinking.

We all agree that commercial fishing is an economic engine in our state, and no one wants to see the end of this way of life in Alaska, which is exactly why we need measures like the urban commercial set net ban to protect fish populations and make sure they stay healthy and abundant for future generations. If we hope to continue this profitable and meaningful industry in the future, we need to be responsible stewards of our resources.

Any species in jeopardy must be protected, or we will see the demise of our natural salmon runs just like in the Pacific Northwest. The heart of this initiative is conservation, and we need to start now before it’s too late. This initiative would only affect set nets in Alaska’s urban areas.

Rural, subsistence, and personal dipnetting would not be affected.

Our children and grandchildren might not fish with the same methods that we use now, but at least they will be fishing.

season, yet the set net industry has done nothing different. In commercial efforts to catch sockeye and boost the bottom line, the plight of Alaska’s kings have been ignored. It’s time for Alaskans to take notice and take action.

The economic argument about set-net versus sport-caught kings bottoms out when you consider this: no amount of money will buy back Alaska’s wild Kenai king salmon once they are gone for good.

Alaskans can’t make money off a resource that has disappeared.

We need to let the kings get to their natural streams to spawn and rebuild a healthy population. If that requires stricter limiting on king fishing for all user groups for several years, I am all for taking those measures.

Many set net supporters say that the end of set nets will be the end of commercial fishing in Cook Inlet. That is not true.

In reality, set nets are just one method of harvest. Those reds now caught by set nets will still be harvested by other commercial means. That decision regarding gear type will be up to the Board of Fisheries There Joe Connors is the president of the Alasare plenty of other harvest options that ka Fisheries Conservation Alliance.

NYC officer mourned at funeral as tensions linger

By JONATHAN LEMIRE and MIKE BALSAMO Associated Press

NEW YORK — Thousands of police officers from across the nation packed a church and spilled onto streets Saturday to honor Officer Rafael Ramos as a devoted family man, aspiring chaplain and hero, though an air of unrest surrounding his ambush shooting was not completely pushed aside.

While mourners inside the church applauded politely as Mayor Bill de Blasio spoke, hundreds of officers outside turned their backs on him in a show of disrespect for what they see as his support for antipolice protesters.

The rush of officers far and wide to New York for Ramos’ funeral reminded some of the bond after the Sept. 11 attacks and Superstorm Sandy. Vice President Joe Biden promised that the “incredibly diverse city can and will show the nation

how to bridge any divide.”

Still, tensions were evident when officers turned away from giant screens showing de Blasio, who has been harshly criticized

by New York Police Department union officials as a contributor to a climate of mistrust that preceded the killings of Ramos and his partner, Wenjian Liu. Sgt. Myron Joseph of the New Rochelle Police Department said he and fellow officers turned their backs spontaneously to “support our brothers in the NYPD.” In a statement, de Blasio’s spokesman said: “The Ramos and Liu families, our police department and our city are dealing with an unconscionable tragedy.

Our sole focus is unifying this city and honoring the lives of our two police officers.”

The NYPD said through its public relations office that it had no comment.

In his eulogy, de Blasio said hearts citywide were broken after the Dec. 20 shootings.

“All of this city is grieving and grieving for so many rea-

sons,” de Blasio said. “But the most personal is that we’ve lost such a good man, and the family is in such pain.”

Gov. Andrew Cuomo praised the sea of blue mourners for their professionalism at recent rallies over police conduct when protesters insulted them, and Biden spoke passionately about the effects of the officers’ deaths.

“When an assassin’s bullet targeted two officers, it targeted this city and it touched the soul of an entire nation,” the vice president said.

Police union officials in contentious contract negotiations with the city have faulted de Blasio for showing sympathy to protesters angry over the police deaths of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, and Eric Garner on Staten Island.

At a hospital after the officers’ slayings, the police union’s president, Patrick Lynch, and others turned their backs on de Blasio. Lynch said the mayor had “blood on his hands.”

After the funeral, Lynch and de Blasio exchanged nods as they exited the church. Lynch refused to answer reporters’ questions about officers turning their backs.

Weeks before the shooting, Lynch had suggested officers sign a petition requesting that the mayor not attend their funerals were they to die in the line of duty.

Soon after taking office this year, de Blasio dropped the city’s opposition to a judge’s finding that the police department discriminated against minorities with its anti-crime stop-and-frisk tactics.

But since last week’s shootings, de Blasio has stood firmly by police, calling on demonstrators to temporarily halt protests and praising the department after it arrested several men charged with threatening police.

The killings shook the city and put an end to large-scale local protests criticizing police over the high-profile, in-custody deaths.

When the Ramos family arrived at church Saturday, the el-

der son — wearing his father’s NYPD jacket — was hugged by a police officer.

Ramos, a 40-year-old married father of two, was studying to become a pastor and kept Bible study books in his locker, his commanding officer said.

Police Commissioner William Bratton said Ramos had been made honorary chaplain of the police precinct where he had worked.

Bratton said in his eulogy that Ramos and Liu would be “partners for all time.” Speaking to Ramos’ children, he said: “We are here because your dad was assassinated. It’s a different word than ‘murdered.’ It makes the crime intentional and symbolic. Your dad was assassinated because he represented something.”

Officer Dustin Lindaman of the Waterloo Police Department flew from Iowa to attend the funeral.

“He’s one of our brothers, and when this happens, it affects everyone in law enforcement — it absolutely affects

everyone,” he said.

A block from the church, retired NYPD Officer John Mangan held a sign that read: “God Bless the NYPD. Dump de Blasio.”

“If the mayor really wanted to do the right thing, he would have gotten into an NYPD car and rode around Bed Stuy and see the difficult jobs these cops do every day,” Mangan said.

After the officers’ deaths, the gunman, Ismaaiyl Brinsley killed himself. Police said he was troubled and had shot and wounded an ex-girlfriend in Baltimore earlier that day.

In online posts shortly before the attack, Brinsley referenced the killings of Brown and Garner, both of whom were black, by white police officers.

Ramos and Liu were the first officers to die in the line of duty in New York since 2011. Funeral plans for Liu haven’t been announced.

They have both been posthumously promoted to first-grade detective.

Death penalty states unmoved by botched execution

McALESTER, Okla. — Oklahoma’s last execution went so badly that the state tried to cancel it before it was over.

With the inmate writhing while the lethal drugs seeped into his body, his executioners drew the viewing gallery curtains, concealing what the warden later described as “a bloody mess.”

The botched execution of Clayton Lockett in April and other troubling ones this year in Ohio and Arizona gave capital punishment opponents a flicker of hope that areas of the country that most enthusiastically support the death penalty might have a change of heart. They didn’t.

Although Gov. Mary Fallin suspended further executions

so that Lockett’s death and Oklahoma’s methods could be reviewed, the state held what amounted to a ribbon-cutting ceremony for its overhauled death chamber only months later and is scheduled to resume killing inmates in midJanuary. And rather than causing states to question whether capital punishment is just or worth the risk of subjecting someone to a potentially agonizing death, the prolonged executions and problems states have had securing lethal injection drugs have led them to explore new, old and more efficient ways of killing, including gassing inmates.

“I think we had a little flash of hope that it would help our cause, but all it did was generate a lot of conversation about it,” said Lydia Polley, a longtime

member of the Oklahoma Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty. “It just led to people thinking of better ways to kill them.”

Lockett’s execution did little to dampen support for the death penalty in conservative Oklahoma, which has killed more inmates than any state except Texas since the 1976 reinstatement of the death penalty. In October, officials gave tours of the renovated execution unit at the Oklahoma State Penitentiary, which got a $104,000 overhaul after Lockett’s death and now stands in sharp contrast to the rest of the 106-year-old facility.

Oklahoma’s Republican-led House conducted a study on the use of nitrogen gas to execute inmates and is expected to consider legislation early next year that would make Oklahoma the first state to adopt hypoxia by gas —

the forced deprivation of oxygen — as a legal execution method.

Other conservative states also are exploring alternatives to lethal injection because of the problems securing the drugs. U.S. states have had to buy made-to-order execution drugs from compounding pharmacies in recent years because the pharmaceutical companies they used to buy their drugs from refuse to sell them for lethal injections.

Tennessee passed a law this year to reinstate the electric chair if it can’t get lethal injection drugs and Utah is consid-

ering bringing back the firing squad.

Oklahoma has executed 194 inmates since its 1907 statehood, including one by hanging, 82 by electrocution and 111 by lethal injection, according to state records. But the death penalty was common long before. U.S. District Judge Isaac Parker earned a reputation as the “Hanging Judge” of the old West and presided over certain crimes committed in Indian territory.

“To me it’s a reflection of our frontier culture,” said Oklahoma historian Bob Blackburn.

“Violence is a part of frontier culture, and vigilante justice has always been a strong element of our history.”

Ralph Shortey, a Republican state senator from Oklahoma City who is pushing for Oklahoma to adopt alternative execution methods to lethal injection, estimates that 90 percent of his constituents support the death penalty, despite what happened to Lockett.

“The average Oklahoman is saying he got exactly what he deserves,” Shortey said. “A lot of people think they should sufSee , page A-6

Yes-We-Can president faces twilight of maybes Botched

By JULIE PACE and NANCY BENAC Associated Press

WASHINGTON — It was supposed to be a joke. “Are you still president?” comedian Stephen Colbert asked Barack Obama earlier this month.

But the question seemed to speak to growing weariness with the president and skepticism that anything will change in Washington during his final two years in office. Democrats already are checking out Obama’s potential successors.

Emboldened Republicans are trying to push aside his agenda in favor of their own.

At times this year, Obama seemed ready to move on as well. He rebelled against the White House security “bubble,” telling his Secret Service detail to give him more space. He chafed at being sidelined by his party during midterm elections and having to adjust his agenda to fit the political interests of vulnerable Democrats who lost anyway.

Yet the election that was a disaster for the president’s party may have had a rejuvenating effect on Obama. The morning after the midterms, Obama told senior aides, “If I see you moping, you will answer to me.”

People close to Obama say he is energized at not having to

worry about helping — or hurting — Democrats in another congressional election on his watch. He has become more comfortable with his executive powers, moving unilaterally on immigration, Internet neutrality and climate change in the last two months. And he sees legacy-building opportunities on the international stage, from an elusive nuclear deal with Iran to normalizing relations with Cuba after a half-century freeze.

“He gained some clarity for the next two years that is liberating,” said Jay Carney, Obama’s former press secretary.

Still, pillars of Obama’s second-term agenda — gun control, raising the federal minimum wage, universal pre-school— seem destined to stand unfulfilled. Wrapping up the Iraq and Afghanistan wars isn’t turning out to be nearly the tidy success story Obama once envisioned. Even supporters say one of the president’s top remaining priorities may have to be simply preventing Republicans from dismantling his earlier accomplishments, including the health care law.

The Yes-We-Can man is entering a twilight of maybes, his presidency still driven by high ambitions but his power

to achieve them running out.

Before the midterm election results arrived, Obama’s advisers say, the president realized he would finish his presidency with Republicans running Capitol Hill. He concluded the status quo would mean more gridlock.

Indeed, 2014 had been another year of fits and starts for a White House that has struggled to find its footing in Obama’s second term.

The feeble HealthCare.gov website stabilized, but scandal enveloped the Department of Veterans Affairs. Syria got rid of its chemical weapons, but a violent extremist group pulled the U.S. back into military conflict in the Middle East. The unemployment rate fell, but so did Obama’s approval ratings — to the lowest levels of his presidency.

Nearly two dozen White House officials, former Obama aides, presidential historians and political analysts discussed Obama’s standing as he closes his sixth year in office, some on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to publicly discuss their conversations with the president or his top advisers.

For much of the year, Obama appeared to struggle with the realization that his political standing had slipped.

He publicly complained about criticism of his foreign policy by pundits in Washington and New York. Despite pleas from his party to stay out of November’s elections, he said his policies were indeed on the ballot. He desperately looked for ways to break free of the confines of the White House.

Obama is realistically optimistic about what he can get done over the next two years, advisers say. He wants to try tax reform and sees opportunities to accelerate growth and job creation with the economy on firmer footing. Aides have reached out to historians and political scientists to solicit ideas for Obama’s next State of the Union address.

Yet the president is forging ahead as something of an isolated figure. Congressional Democrats are increasingly willing to go against him. And in the West Wing, Obama’s tight inner circle of loyal advisers keeps shrinking.

The trio of political gurus who helped direct his presidential campaigns — David Axelrod, Robert Gibbs and David Plouffe — have moved on.

And former chief of staff Rahm Emanuel is now the mayor of Chicago. Other longtime aides are eyeing exits. Bringing in fresh talent is getting harder.

Obama is trying to branch out. He started keeping his version of a bucket list: the names of authors, business leaders, innovators and others he wants to bring to the White House for a private lunch or dinner. Those who have visited include inventor and business tycoon Elon Musk, historian Doris Kearns Goodwin and AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson, a major Republican donor.

Signs that Obama’s presidency is closing are all around.

Within weeks, the race to replace him will begin in earnest. Democrats are lining up to endorse Hillary Rodham Clinton, though she’s yet to declare her candidacy.

People close to Obama say he is weighing what he’ll do when he leaves the White House. He is studying the paths predecessors have taken and has expressed interest in both domestic and international issues. He is already imagining life with fewer restrictions.

Asked in a New Yorker interview earlier this year whether he would want to be a judge, Obama said that sounded a bit “too monastic.” “Particularly after having spent six years and what will be eight years in this bubble, I think I need to get outside a little bit more.”

fer even more than they do.

They think the lethal injection is too easy for them.”

Oklahoma prison officials say they’ve secured the drugs they need to execute the next four inmates — the first is scheduled for Jan. 15 — unless a federal appeals court stands in their way.

The inmates are trying to stop their executions, arguing that the state would essentially be experimenting on them by injecting them with unproven and untested drugs and violating the constitutional ban on cruel and unusual punishment.

“Just because you say you’ve renovated the execution chamber, doesn’t mean a judge will be satisfied that you’ve identified the problems and have a strong guarantee they won’t happen again,” said Richard Dieter, the director of the Death Penalty Information Center, a Washington-based advocacy group that opposes capital punishment.

“They may be optimistic about being able to go forward, but I think there are still a lot of questions out there.”

Food hubs link eaters with locally farmed food

By LISA RATHKE Associated Press

BURLINGTON, Vt. — Move over farmers’ markets.

More than 300 food hubs around the country are also providing small farms another outlet to sell locally raised food to consumers.

There’s no one model for a food hub — it depends on the market, the location and what it is grown in that area. Some collect food from farms and dole it out to customers in weekly deliveries. Other hubs help consumers, restaurants, colleges and institutions to source food online. But producers, consumers and experts all say food hubs have an important thing in common: it’s an efficient way to get locally raised food to those clamoring for it.

“We’ve seen in the last few years in particular as local and region food systems have grown and become not only larger but kind of more sophisticated that there has been a need for sort of the logistics of moving food from the field to the consumers. And food hubs kind of fill that space,” said Doug O’Brien, deputy undersecretary for rural development for the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The agency spent about $25 million from 2009-2013 supporting food hubs.

The number of food hubs has doubled over the last six years, and many are in urban areas, with the Northeast leading the way. Some operate as nonprofits, others are for-profit or producer-consumer cooperatives. Some are modeled after CSAs, or community supported agriculture, where consumers pay up front for food throughout the season.

That’s how the Intervale Food Hub in Burlington, Vermont, works, with 30 farms, 15 specialty producers and 1,100 members who pick up their weekly bundles at various sites around the city. The venture started in 2008 with just 192 members and 24 farms.

Legal secretary Betsy Bourbeau says the food hub’s deliveries to her place of work are more convenient than shopping at farmers’ markets and cuts down time at the store.

“I spend much less time looking at grocery sales, clipping coupons, driving around town and finding parking. I just bring home my food on Wednesday and figure out what to make,” said Bourbeau, 50, who gets produce, bread, cheese, eggs and specialty items for about $38.50 a week — less than she would spend at a farmers’ market.

For farmers, food hubs provide distribution, marketing and, in some cases, processing and storage.

Predicting what will sell at a farmers’ market is a challenge, according to Ray Tyler of Rosecreek Farms in Selmer, Tennessee. By getting involved

with the Bring It Food Hub in Memphis, Tyler can plan ahead for the next growing season, when the hub plans to double its membership to 400.

“Basically instead of us spending all this time on marketing, we can now spend more time doing what we love to do and that is growing great food,” he said.

The emerging business model can be challenging, says Bring It Food Hub operations manager Alex Greene, because you have to cater to customers and be flexible with farmers, whose product is at the mercy of weather. Food hub lead-

ers need “a sense of the end product” and have to learn the logistics, plus “managing the website, the online credit card system and other technical matters,” Greene said.

To that end, the University of Vermont is starting what it says is the nation’s first Food Hub Management Certificate Program.

“Many food hubs are upand-coming businesses with staff who need further training or experience,” Cynthia Belliveau, dean of Continuing and Distance Education, said in a news release. “High-quality staffing is one of the greatest

challenges food hubs face, and it’s also a key contributing factor to their success.”

One of the two farmers’ markets that Josephine and Randy Alexander of Tubby Creek Farm in Ashland, Mississippi, had planned on selling at fell through this year, but they were able to sell extra produce to the food hub. The Alexanders are currently planning ahead for their next season’s food hub offerings — carrots, salad turnips and lettuce mix. “It simplifies it a little bit for us and that way we can do more of those things that we do really well, in targeted way,” she said.

US mission in Havana to become embassy amid thaw

By PETER ORSI Associated Press

HAVANA — A half-century after Washington severed relations with Cuba, the United States’ seven-story mission looms over Havana’s seaside Malecon boulevard as the largest diplomatic outpost in the country.

Cuban guards stand at close intervals on the street outside, and islanders line up by the thousands each year for a shot at a coveted visa.

The gleaming U.S. Interests Section suddenly is poised to become an even more important presence in Cuba as the two countries negotiate the first phase of their historic detente — transforming the complex into a full embassy that would reflect the Obama administration’s hopes of new influence on the communist island.

Roberta Jacobson, assistant U.S. secretary of state for Western Hemisphere affairs, will

be the highest known U.S. administration official to visit in decades when she comes next month for annual talks on migration that will now also focus on the details of re-establishing full diplomatic relations.

The discussions are expected to cover expanding staffing in the two countries’ interests sections and letting diplomats travel outside their respective capitals without having to ask permission.

Also part of the reopening of the embassy: symbolic measures such as raising the American flag on the Malecon.

“Opening an embassy is a symbolic gesture, but symbols are really important,” John Caulfield, who was Interests Section chief from 2011 to 2014, said by phone from Jacksonville, Florida, where he retired.

“This is a pretty powerful symbol by our president that we want to have a more normal relationship with Cuba despite

the fact that we have the obvious differences,” he added.

Cuba’s interests section is a stately manor in Washington’s Adams Morgan neighborhood. It, too, stands to become an embassy.

Diplomats say privately that Washington hopes to boost staffing in Havana, currently at about 50 Americans and 300 Cuban workers, as more American travelers and trade delegates are expected to come here under new rules to be set by the White House softening the U.S. trade embargo on Cuba.

An agreement could also ease or scrap rules that require U.S. diplomats to channel all requests through Cuba’s Foreign Ministry; the diplomats would be able to deal directly with at least some other branches of government.

The U.S. Interests Section has often been a flashpoint for conflict, and its decades of hybrid status reflect the dysfunctional relationship between the two

deeply intertwined countries.

The building first opened as an embassy in 1953, the same year Fidel Castro launched an ill-fated assault on a barracks that is considered the onset of the Cuban Revolution.

Eight years later, with Castro then in power, the countries broke ties and Switzerland stepped in to safeguard both the embassy and the ambassador’s residence, a sprawling, immaculately groomed estate in Havana’s finest neighborhood.

After the break, Washington was without a presence in Cuba until 1977, when the interests sections were opened under President Jimmy Carter. The missions technically operate under the aegis of the “protecting power” Switzerland.

Cuba later built the adjacent “Anti-Imperialist Plaza,” which has hosted nationalist rallies where Castro gave long speeches railing against Washington, and concerts demanding the

return of the Cuban intelligence agents whom the U.S. freed last week as part of the detente.

Huge marches streamed past the Interests Section in 2000 to demand the return of the young Cuban rafter Elian Gonzalez.

On the wall of a conference room in the mission hangs the bronze head of an eagle that topped the nearby USS Maine monument until it was ripped down in a 1961 anti-Yankee protest following the failed Bay of Pigs invasion. The wings and body sit in a musty Cuban museum storage room awaiting a possible reunion with the head on the day that Havana and Washington become friends.

In 2006, U.S. diplomats installed an electronic billboard that scrolled messages extolling democracy and human rights to Cubans on the street below. An outraged Cuban government erected dozens of black flags to obscure the signs.

“The consequence of that

was, for years, they did not allow us to import lightbulbs,” Caulfield recalled with a chuckle.

The U.S. Interests Section is closely watched by cameras and guards on both sides, a function of both the longtime tensions and general increased security at American diplomatic missions following 9/11. Cuban police make pedestrians cross the street to use another sidewalk, and no parking is allowed.

Some neighbors say they love living nearby: Nobody ever gets robbed, and the employees and visa-seekers support local private businesses that were allowed to open under President Raul Castro’s economic reforms of recent years.

“Because the whole area is so well guarded, it’s very safe,” said Pedro Hernandez, 73, who runs a modest snack bar out of his home. “There are no problems with crime of any kind, and that’s very good for us.”

Wanted extremist leader surrenders in Somalia

By ABDI GULED Associated Press

NAIROBI, Kenya — A leader with the Islamic extremist group al-Shabab, who had a $3 million bounty on his head, surrendered in Somalia, a Somali intelligence official said Saturday.

Zakariya Ismail Ahmed Hersi surrendered to Somali police in the Gedo region, said

the intelligence officer, who insisted on anonymity because he is not authorized to speak to the press.

Hersi may have surrendered because he fell out with those loyal to Ahmed Abdi Godane, al-Shabab’s top leader who was killed in a U.S. airstrike earlier this year, the officer said.

Hersi was one of seven top al-Shabab officials whom the Obama administration offered

a total $33 million in rewards for information leading to their capture in 2012. It is not clear if the reward will be paid out for Hersi because he surrendered.

Despite major setbacks in 2014, al-Shabab remains a threat in Somalia and the East African region. The group has carried out many terror attacks in Somalia and some in neighboring countries including Ke-

nya, whose armies are part of the African Union troops bolstering Somalia’s weak U.N.backed government.

On Christmas day al-Shabab launched an attack at the African Union base in Mogadishu.

Nine people died, including three African Union soldiers, in the attack on the complex, which also houses U.N. offices and western embassies.

Al-Shabab said the attack was

aimed at a Christmas party and was in retaliation for the killing of the group’s leader Godane.

Al-Shabab also claimed that 14 soldiers were killed but the group often exaggerates the number of people it kills.

Al-Shabab is waging an Islamic insurgency against Somalia’s government that is attempting to rebuild the country after decades of conflict.

Al-Shabab controlled much of Mogadishu during the years 2007 to 2011, but was pushed out of Somalia’s capital and other major cities by African Union forces. The United States and the U.N. warn that political infighting in Somalia is putting at risk the security gains. The federal government remains weak and wields little power outside the capital Mogadishu.

N. Korea uses racial slur against Obama over hack

By HYUNG-JIN KIM Associated Press

SEOUL, South Korea — North Korea blamed its recent Internet outage on the United States on Saturday and hurled racially charged insults at President Barack Obama over the hacking row involving the movie “The Interview.”

North Korea’s powerful National Defense Commission, which is headed by country leader Kim Jong Un and is the nation’s top governing body, said Obama was behind the release of the comedy that depicts Kim’s assassination.

The commission described the movie as illegal, dishonest and reactionary.

“Obama always goes reckless in words and deeds like a

monkey in a tropical forest,” an unidentified spokesman at the commission’s Policy Department said in a statement carried by the country’s official Korean Central News Agency.

The White House’s National Security Council declined to comment Saturday.

North Korea has denied involvement in a crippling cyberattack on Sony Pictures but has expressed fury over the comedy.

Sony Pictures initially called off the release of the film, citing threats of terror attacks against U.S. movie theaters.

Obama criticized Sony’s decision, and the movie opened this past week.

It wasn’t the first time North Korea has used crude insults against Obama and other top

U.S. and South Korean officials.

Earlier this year, North Korea called U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry a wolf with a “hideous” lantern jaw and South Korean President Park Geun-hye a prostitute.

In May, the North’s official news agency published a dispatch saying Obama has the “shape of a monkey.”

A State Department spokeswoman at the time called the North Korean dispatch “offensive and ridiculous and absurd.”

In the latest incident, the North Korean defense commission also blamed Washington for intermittent outages of North Korean websites this past week.

The outages happened after Obama blamed the Sony hack on North Korea and promised to respond “in a place and time and manner that we choose.”

The U.S. government has declined to say whether it was behind the Internet shutdown cant’s personnel management in North Korea.

According to the North philosophy and three profesKorean commission’s spokessional references.

Under Alaska statute, the joint board is required to submit a list of qualified nominees to the governor, who can ask for additional canddiates and must eventually select a commissioner.

The governor’s selection must then be confirmed by the Legislature.

...Commissioner Continued from page A-1

The Board of Fisheries and the Board of Game will hold a joint board meeting to develop a list of qualified people for the position, according to a Friday media release.

Notice of that meeting has not yet been given.

Roland Maw, executive director of the United Cook Inlet Drift Association and Kenai Peninsula resident said the position required submission of a resume, a letter of interest, a statement of the applicant’s Reach Rashah McChesney resource management philoso- at rashah.mcchesney@peninphy, a statement of the appli- sulaclarion.com

man, “the U.S., a big country, started disturbing the Internet operation of major media of the DPRK, not knowing shame like children playing tag.”

DPRK refers to the North’s official name, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea.

The commission said the movie was the result of a hostile U.S. policy toward North Korea, and threatened the U.S. with unspecified consequences.

North Korea and the U.S. remain technically in a state of war because the 1950-53 Korean War ended with an armistice, not a peace treaty. The rivals also are locked in an international standoff over North Korea’s nuclear and missile programs and its alleged human rights abuses.

A United Nations commission accuses North Korea of a wide array of crimes against humanity, including murder, enslavement, torture, imprisonment and rape.

The U.S. stations about 28,500 troops in South Korea as deterrence against North Korean aggression.

Syria ‘ready to participate’ in Moscow peace talks

By ALBERT AJI and DIAA HADID Associated Press

DAMASCUS — Syrian state-run TV said Saturday that the government is prepared to take part in peace talks hosted by Russia next month, but the unnamed foreign ministry official it cited suggested the scope of the negotiations would be limited to “preliminary” talks meant to pave the way for a conference in Syria itself.

The official was quoted as saying the government was “ready to participate in preparatory, advisory meetings in Moscow” that would “answer the aspirations of Syrians to find an exit from the crisis.”

Russia’s Foreign Ministry had said Thursday that it hoped to host peace talks after Jan. 20 between the Syrian government and its fractured

opposition. The nearly fouryear conflict has claimed over 200,000 lives, displaced a third of Syria’s population, and nurtured an extremist group, the Islamic State, which now rules over vast swaths of Syria and neighboring Iraq.

Russia is a staunch ally of Syrian President Bashar Assad. The Western-backed Syrian opposition has insisted that any negotiated settlement include the formation of a transitional governing body with full executive powers, a demand rejected by Assad’s government.Hadi Bahra, the head of the Syrian National Coalition, the main Westernbacked opposition group, said it had not yet made a decision on the talks.

“We can’t give a response to something that’s still hanging in the air,” Bahra said.

“There are no invitations, and what are they inviting us to? Is there a negotiations framework? Who will come?

What is the aim?”

Season preview: A changing of the guard?

3A basketball squads Nikiski, Seward and Homer hope to mix it up in Southcentral Conference

By JOEY KLECKA Peninsula Clarion

In Class 3A high school hoops competition, most seasons see a regular heirarchy of a top team or two, a middle mix of contenders and one or two bottom rung squads.

With three teams out of seven in the Southcentral conference earning a ticket to the “big dance” in March, it doesn’t leave a lot of room for that middle group to step up and snatch a spot at state.

That’s why this year’s Southcentral conference tournament in Homer is once again expected to be wild as every basketball team looks for glory in either the championship game or the crucial third-place matchup.

The general consensus among coaches points to ACS and Grace Christian as the favorites on both the boys and girls side, but lurking in the shadows is a middle group consisting

S outhcentral P review of Seward, Homer, Nikiski and Cordova, any of which could jump up and surprise folks.

The following is a closer look at the Peninsula teams: HOMER MARINERS The Homer girls have already gotten off to a hot start this year by toppling 4A school Soldotna on the opening day of the Kenai River Challenge tournament in mid-December.

First-year head coach Chad Felice may not have known before the game that the Homer girls don’t often beat their bigger rivals to the north, but he soon found out after the game.

“Just watching these girls go out

and play like a team, that’s the big deal to me,” Felice said after the game.

Felice took on the head position for the Homer girls this year after coaching in New York state for 12 years as a middle-school coach and varsity assistant in Port Byron.

“It’s similar in size to Homer, and I’ve watched tape of other teams, but that’s about all we have in common,” Felice said.

Felice hails from the hoops-crazy region near Syracuse, home of the NCAA-champion college team, so he knows a little about the culture of the sport. Felice said winning the conference tourney on the Mariners’ home court would be a nice state sendoff.

“Winning regions at home would be pretty special,” he said. “We want to finish atop the league, go to state and make some noise.”

Felice said one of the early strengths See SCC, page B-4

A change in course Kenai, SoHi ready to attack bulk of prep hoops season with renewed vigor and diverse rosters

By JOEY KLECKA Peninsula Clarion

The history between Kenai Central and Soldotna is long and filled with memories, but the two basketball teams that represent the schools may need a refresher course regarding the rivalry.

The two Peninsula teams in the Northern Lights Conference could hardly be more different entering the 2014-15 season. On one hand, Kenai returns both head coaches on the boys and girls side, as well as most of its starting lineups from a year ago. On the other hand, Soldotna features a revamped lineup as well as two different faces at the head coaching spot from a year ago.

The Kardinals return boys coach Ken Felchle and girls coach Stacia Rustad, while the Stars will see a familiar face return to prominence and a new one start a new era.

Former longtime SoHi girls coach Mark Tuter takes over the boys varsity with aspirations of returning as a state contender and a region champion, while former Skyview girls coach Kyle McFall takes over the reigns for Doug Blossom in his first year in the Stars organization.

The ability for the Stars and the Kards to load up against conference opponents Colony, Wasilla, Palmer and Kodiak will be tested this year. With Anchorage teams getting a large chunk of attention concerning state championship favorites, the Northern Lights conference has slowly and quietly become

N orthern L ights P review one of the hotbeds for talented basketball teams. The Colony Knights and Wasilla Warriors have both made runs in the 4A state tournament in recent years, while Soldotna’s famous moment came in the 2009 boys title game, an overtime loss to Dimond.

Felchle tabbed Colony as the favorite to win the Northern Lights Conference, with Kodiak also getting a nod.

“Up in camp this summer, I don’t think I’ve ever seen them that good and that deep,” Felchle said. “They will be the favorite in the region.”

The past four state champions on the girls side have come from the Northern Lights conference, and Rustad believes that the Wasilla girls — winners of three straight state titles from 2011 to 2013 – will be back up to par after a down season a year ago.

“I think (coach) Jeannie (Hebert-Truax) has them back up and running,” Rustad said.

4A state championship final.

Tuter, although seeing his first action as a boys head coach, is by no means new to the school. Tuter coached the Soldotna girls for close to 20 years — including a state title in 1993 — prior to taking a back seat as an assistant for the boys a few years ago.

Tuter said the biggest difference between coaching boys and girls comes not in how they play, but how they react on the bench.

“It’s still coaching but there’s a big difference in how you relate to them and deal with them,” Tuter said.

Dealing with the SoHi boys may be an easier task this year. Of

the 13 listed varsity members, 12 are upperclassmen.

“We’re an explosive team,” Tuter described.

Senior Nate Spence, a fouryear player for the team, said with such a prominent number of seniors taking up the starting lineup, the drive to win is overwhelming.

“I think one thing that feels different is being a senior,” Spence said after the Stars’ season opener against CIA on Dec. 13. “You have a bigger sense of urgency.

We have seven seniors, I think, so the whole team is feeling that.”

Tuter added that if outside shots are not falling, there are

players who can get points from down low in the post, players such as Joe Weltzin — a 6-foot3 senior from Washington — and senior Drew Fowler.

Spence and Weltzin have combined as a dynamic duo in early season action, while seniors Brooks Furlong, Hunter Phillips, Matt Trammell and juniors Dylan Kuntz and Drew Gibbs have added crucial depth.

The lone player from Skyview that made the varsity squad is senior Tim Duke, who played a big role in the Stars’ win over Palmer on the second day of the Al Howard tournament. Duke adds speed See NLC, page B-4

Kentucky reigns over Louisville

By The Associated Press

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Tyler Ulis shook off a bloody cut by his right eye to score 12 key second-half points and lead top-ranked Kentucky to a hardfought 58-50 victory over No. 4 Louisville on Saturday.

An inadvertent elbow by Louisville’s Chris Jones in the first half left Ulis with two thin bandages. He hit two big 3-pointers to give the Wildcats (13-0) a cushion in this showdown between unbeaten Bluegrass State rivals.

Fellow freshmen Karl-Anthony Towns, Devin Booker and Trey Lyles joined in to help stake Kentucky to a 50-38 lead with 4:43 left.

Gordon benched

By TOM WITHERS AP Sports Writer

CLEVELAND (AP) — Josh Gordon will end his troubled season just as it began — suspended.

The Browns’ enigmatic wide receiver was suspended Saturday for missing a team walkthrough and will miss the finale in Baltimore. Gordon, who led the NFL in yards receiving last season, served a 10-game suspension for repeated drug violations earlier this year.

A person familiar with the situation said Gordon was suspended for not showing up at a walk-through in Berea before the team flew to Baltimore. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the team has not disclosed the reason for Gordon’s punishment.

Pigskin Pick’Em: Final week brings uncertainty Sultan of Sides goes into final week of regular season with nerves, looks forward to playoffs

By NOLAN ROSE For the Peninsula Clarion

The Sultan of Sides hoped to find a winning week under the Christmas tree, but found a big box of average instead. An 8-8 effort last week moves our season record to 127-109-4. The column still sits at a positive 54% mark with only sixteen games remaining. Some of you may be wondering, “How does that translate to dollars”?

Let me tell you, had the loyal Peninsula Clarion faithful wagered $110 on every single NFL game this season, using this column as your pigskin compass, you would have won $710 through the first 16 weeks (assuming a 10% juice on all contests). Not enough to take the family on a Hawaiian vacation, but close enough to buy a shiny new TV to watch this year’s Super Bowl.

Of course, with a great week 17, we could ensure that TV was a plasma screen and add an inch or two for our viewing pleasure. Admittedly though, the final week of the year is always the hardest to predict. Will teams eliminated from the playoffs lose on purpose for draft considerations? Will teams that have already clinched their playoff seed rest starters? Will Peyton Manning show more signs of rapid aging?

Cleveland Browns @ BALTIMORE RAVENS -10 The Cleveland Browns waited longer than usual to remember that they’re still the Cleveland Browns. Cleveland sported a flattering 7-4 mark after 11 games, but in typical Browns fashion the club hasn’t won a game since. Adding insult to fandom, the Johnny Manziel experiment quickly exploded with the ferocity of an atom bomb. Both Manziel and season opening starter Brian Hoyer will be sidelined this week with injuries, leaving untested practice squad rookie Conner Shaw under center. Baltimore needs a victory over the Browns and a San Diego Chargers loss to qualify for the postseason. After last week’s meltdown in Houston I’m not sure the Ravens deserve to get in. Ravens win 20-9

tion). The most likely outcome will leave the Cowboys with the three seed and home field advantage for the Wild Card round.

I’m not sure what’s more offensive to Native American groups, the Redskins name or the team’s play on the field. Can somebody please end the Robert Griffin trial period? I’m certain Dallas will look to bench Tony Romo and DeMarco Murray at some point if the opportunity arises, but in a battle of Cowboys and Indians, history tells us to favor the Cowboy. Cowboys win 34-17

INDIANAPOLIS COLTS @ Tennessee Titans +7 If the struggling Colts were facing anyone other than the Titans I would fade the horseshoe. Andrew Luck has mysteriously evolved into a turnover machine in the second half of the season. Undoubtedly, a completely non-existent rushing attacked has aided Luck’s struggles, but the decline in play still has to have a sobering effect on the franchises ownership (did you catch what I did there?). The Titans are awful. I’m not certain the Soldotna Stars football team couldn’t beat these jokers. Colts win 30-17

JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS @ Houston Texans -9.5 The Jungle kittens, led by the motivational mastermind Gus Bradley, have turned into a scrappy bunch late in the year. Fresh off a 21-13 dismantling of the aforementioned Tennessee Titans, Jacksonville will look to end their season on a two game winning streak and capture their first road victory in over two seasons when they visit the Houston Texans this Sunday.

Houston has J.J. Watt. Watt eats Jungle Kittens for breakfast. Jacksonville doesn’t have the chops to pull off the upset, but I expect this contest to remain competitive.

Texans win 21-14

SAN DIEGO CHARGERS @ Kansas City Chiefs -3

season collapse is fast approaching!

Manning has shown chinks in his armor in recent weeks. Surely, the increasingly cold weather has aided Manning’s regression. While the weather is unlikely to warm up, the Oakland Raiders should be a much more hospitable opponent for the greatest passing AARP member of all time. The Raiders have been competitive late in the year, but this is a game the Raiders really need to lose. Broncos win 35-9

Arizona Cardinals @ SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS -6 The Desert Bats late season swoon continued last week when the Cardinals were crushed 35-6 by the Seattle Seahawks. Arizona, a team with championship aspirations just a few weeks ago, needs a win to avoid falling all the way to the sixth seed in the NFC. For the 49ers, this contest marks the end of an era. Insane, but excellent football coach, Jim Harbaugh will likely be fired at season’s end. As a Seahawks fan I have to admit that I’m saddened by this reality.

Hating Harbaugh was fun and there’s no denying the Seattle/San Francisco rivalry won’t be the same without the embattled 49ers coach. I’m about to do something I never thought I’d do. I’m rooting for the 49ers and Jim Harbaugh to get a win. 49ers win 27-10

St. Louis Rams @ SEATTLE SEAHAWKS -12.5 I expect Seattle to come out a little tight knowing that a win equals home field advantage throughout the NFC playoffs, but ultimately the hottest team in the NFL will pull away from a bewildered Rams team.

Things are officially feeling like they did a year ago. That’s scary news for the rest of the NFL. Seahawks win 21-3

CINCINNATI BENGALS @ Pittsburgh Steelers -3.5

What a fun matchup to end the NFL regular season with! The Bengals visit the Steelers with the AFC North Division title up for grabs. Pittsburgh seems to be the trendy pick as a sleeper in the AFC, but I’m going the other way and siding with a Bengals team that finally got the prime time monkey off their back with a win over Denver last Sunday. Cincinnati has the type of run game that gives Pittsburgh fits. If the Bengals can control the clock and keep Big Ben Roethlisberger off the field expect Cincinnati to pull off Oakland Raiders @ the upset. Either way this game should be DENVER BRONCOS -14 decided by a late field goal. Bengals win The inevitable Peyton Manning post- 27-24.

East-leading Raptors snap Clippers’ home win streak

By The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Kyle Lowry scored 25 points and the Toronto Raptors’ reserves came up big in the fourth quarter of a 110-98 victory over the Clippers on Saturday, ending Los Angeles’ eight-game home winning streak.

Jonas Valanciunas had 22 points and 11 rebounds for the defending Atlantic Division champion Raptors, who entered the day with a one-game lead over Atlanta for the best record in the Eastern Conference.

Lowry shot 9 of 17, after averag-

and agility to the equation, which brings the Stars to a full house of talent.

Tuter said a top-two finish in the region is what the Stars are after this season, and Colony is still the top team to fight if they hope to do so.

“That’s a realistic goal for us,” Tuter said. “If the cards fall right and we get hot at the right time, we can do it.”

Tuter said he is still trying to establish an identity for the team, but for the time being believes that the Stars are a “running team.”

“I think we’re an aggressive team,” Tuter said. “I know we’re an athletic team.”

For those who think the Soldotna boys have changed over the offseason, one only needs to look at the Soldotna girls to get a sense of a real change-up.

Kyle McFall takes over for Doug Blossom as head coach, who oversaw two state tournament bids for SoHi in his term.

McFall won his debut with the team — a win over Cook Inlet Academy — but then saw the Stars drop a close matchup with Homer on the opening day of the Kenai River Challenge.

McFall explained that it has become a process of introducing a different style of play to the team, trying to get them to work in a motion offense, which relies on passing and screens.

“They’re picking it up, it’s just gonna take some time,” McFall said.

McFall is also working with a few players from his days as a coach at Skyview High, players such as seniors Hayley Ramsell and Joanne Glaves, and junior Jacy Rouse.

“They fit in nicely with the

ing 9.3 points and 27.5 percent from the field over his previous four games against the Clippers.

BULLS 107, PELICANS 100 CHICAGO (AP) — Jimmy Butler scored 33 points, Derrick Rose had 19 and Chicago beat New Orleans for its sixth consecutive victory.

The Bulls (21-9) also had three reserves score in double figures in their ninth win in 10 games. Aaron Brooks scored 13 points, and Taj Gibson added 12 points and 10 rebounds. Nikola Mirotic finished with 10 points.

team that was here already,” McFall said. “But it is a new group, and I’m excited about this group. They work really hard.”

Ramsell has already made an impact for the Stars, regularly becoming the team’s top scorer in the first few games of the new season, and standing at six feet tall, it’s not difficult to see why. Along with Ramsell, key members have included returning starter Haley Miller, Skylar Shaw and Kelsey Jackson, all seniors. Miller was a part of last year’s Soldotna team that finished fourth at the 4A state tournament.

McFall said that the volleyball team — which received former Skyview coach Sheila Kupferschmid as a coach this year — helped to mix things up and get any chemistry issues quickly out of the way.

It’s made his transition easier to SoHi that much easier.

“A lot of these girls know each other from volleyball, and have been a part of successful teams before,” he said.

KENAI KARDINALS Ken Felchle returns to lead the Kenai boys, and will be getting a helping hand on the bench with assistant coaches Jesse Settlemyer, Chris Hanson and Cary Calvert, all of whom hold previous head-coaching experience. Settlemyer made the jump as the last Skyview boys head coach, Hanson comes in with experience as the SoHi boys coach and Calvert comes in as a former Skyview girls coach.

“I got really lucky this year that Jesse was interested in coming to Kenai,” Felchle said.

“Every one of us has been a head coach on the Peninsula, and I am extremely lucky and fortunate to have them.

of the team is defense. With three players listed at 5-foot-11 or above (topped out by 6-foot senior Celeste Fairbanks), the Mariners aren’t exactly lacking on size or height. Fairbanks is one of three seniors on the team, along with Larson Fellows and Shelby Alexander.

While the defense is coming along nicely in the early going, Felice said the offense is a work in progress, as he has introduced in a new, up-tempo style.

“They’re not running anything that they’ve learned last year,” Felice said.

“It takes them a while to get comfortable with it, but when they run the fastbreak, they run it well.”

Juniors Madison Akers, Aurora Waclawski and sophomore Mariah Hendrickson ran portions of the new offense and contributed chunks of points in early tournament play.

Add to the mix junior Kayla Stafford — a transfer from Nikolaevsk — and the Homer girls seem to be on the right track. Stafford helped the Nikolaevsk girls team to state appearances the past three years, including a runner-up finish at the 1A tournament in 2013.

“We just hope to play good fundamental team basketball, and then get ready for regions,” Felice said about the end-of-year goals. “Regions is at home for us this year, which is a plus.”

The Homer boys are also getting a new coach in Nate Creel, who is taking over from Mark Casseri.

“We’re still just trying to play together,” Creel said. “Even though we have a lot of older guys on the team, for some of them it’s their first year playing.

We’re looking for that unity.”

Creel lived and graduated from Petersburg, a small town about 160 miles southeast of Juneau, and this season is his first in Homer.

“I really think we’ve got a shot,” Creel said. “We’ve got nine seniors this year, so it’s just until we can get a full team, we haven’t seen what we can do yet.”

Listed on the varsity roster are eight seniors and one freshman (guard Jordan Beachy), so the experience and maturity levels are not something that

Watson, who played New York its seventh straight loss.

“Having those coaches is like drawing the number one draft pick.”

Another reason why Felchle is feeling lucky is the fact that most of the team that went through last year’s campaign is back. Sophomore Josh Jackman and seniors Jonah Theisen and Austin McKee headline the offensive set with juniors Keith Ivy and Taylor Landry serving as power forwards. And if they need a bigger post presence, Felchle can add six-foot-4 junior Garrett Fitt into the mix.

With a steady rotation of ten players on the bench keeping the starters fresh, the Kards may be primed for a comeback year. There’s just one thing that Kenai may need to figure out.

“We’ve got to learn how to win, and sometimes that’s hard,” Felchle said. “You have to fight through the obstacles in your head, like, ‘Here we go again’.”

Felchle brought the Kenai boys to the 2012 state tournament, but the Kards have missed each of the last two years after struggling to rebuild from a loss of a number of key seniors. Felchle said in the past, he has laid out basic goals for the team, such as boxing out more efficiently, playing with purpose and improving every day.

“This year we’ve simplified it even more,” Felchle explained. “I have the kids rate themselves every day on two things. Mental effort and physical effort.”

With the kind of team that is returning, Felchle stated that team chemistry is not lacking in the slightest.

“It’s huge,” he said about the large number of returning players. “It’s huge in their cohesiveness, it’s huge in how they get along, how they play well together. We’re growing up as

Creel is concerned with.

The only thing that has had him worried early in the season are a few ankle injuries, sustained in practices.

But once the medical concerns are dealt with, Creel said the Mariners are capable of having a big season.

“It’s really exciting, especially for this group of seniors,” Creel said.

“They get to show the home fans what they can do.”

Also like the girls team, the Homer boys are not lacking vertical supremacy. Senior center Sheldon Hutt tops out at 6-foot-7, while seniors Ben Knisely and Patrick Rainwater are both listed at 6-foot-3.

Hutt is slated to be the team’s main post player, while seniors Brandon Beachy, Drew Brown, Filip Reutov and Kenneth Schneider will be directing the offense as forwards and guards.

NIKISKI BULLDOGS Last year, the Nikiski girls secured their first state berth since 2009 with a runner-up result at the region tournament, but fell out after two days with losses to Mt. Edgecumbe and Valdez.

“I look back at that state tournament, and I feel like we played well but didn’t shoot well,” said coach Scott Anderson. “We got matched up with teams that were playing really well, and I think the experience of being there was big.”

Anderson returns for his fourth year coaching the Nikiski girls, which is looking a bit different this season.

The only two players that got time as starters from last year’s state squad are senior Rachel Thompson and Allison Litke. Thompson is the only fulltime starter back from last year, as Litke started in about half of the games.

The rest of the players? Anderson said they are a mix of JV players and fresh faces.

“They’re all fairly athletic, not big, but fast, so I think a lot of it will come down to the belief on the girls part,” Anderson said. “Typically when they get along well, they’re going to have some success.”

Senior post player Chena Litzen, guard Haley Riddall and guard Ariana Parrish round out the rest of the current starting lineup.

a team together, and we’re getting better together.”

The Kenai girls may also be looking at a bounceback year.

After struggling to an 0-10 mark in conference play last year, the Kards opened this season with a 76-15 blowout of 1A opponent Lumen Christi in the tournament opener at the Kenai River Challenge in midDecember. The most important thing that victory established is Kenai’s confidence in being able to score.

“We have to learn to score,” said coach Stacia Rustad. “It’s something that we have not done the last two years, and hence why we have lost.

“We have not won many games because we cannot score.”

Since losing several standout players to graduation over the course of 2012 and 2013,

their belt just yet, the Bulldogs have already come up big early in the season, winning the Holland America tournament in Sitka in mid-December.

With three teams ending the tournament with a 2-1 record, the tiebreaker went to Nikiski, who allowed the least total points in the three games.

“I think that really showed a lot about who we are,” Anderson said.

The biggest thing that could have done is instill the confidence needed for such a young group of players.

Combined with the hunger incurred after going two-and-out at the state tournament last March, the Nikiski girls could be dangerous when spring break rolls around.

“I told the girls, I think we’re gonna play our best ball in March,” Anderson said. “I hope as the season goes along we can grow and be in position to compete well.”

Anderson added that he also is looking forward to competing against an old friend, former Nikiski coach Ward Romans. Romans took the head coaching position for the Grace girls team this year, but already holds an impressive resume of state championships with the Nikiski girls, winning eight titles from 1992 to 2006.

“Basically the Nikiski girls team went to state every year with him,” Anderson said. “He built up a really solid program, he’s a good friend of mine, and I kind of jokingly wish he was in a different region, so I didn’t have to play him.”

On the boys side, Nikiski is looking to snap a much longer state-less streak. The Bulldogs have not been to the big dance since 2002. That year also broke a long drought of not making state that went back to 1996.

“That’s the plan,” said coach Reid Kornstad about the Bulldogs’ postseason goals. “These guys are a quality bunch and they have a great chance.

“If we can shoot it well in key games, they’ll have a chance.”

The boys have gotten off to a decent start, going 2-2 in Sitka with wins against Craig and conference opponent Houston at the Holland American tournament. Kornstad said he felt good about the weekend, adding that after seeing the action from the sideline, he believes this current crop to be one of the most even teams that he’s ever coached.

the Kards have been able to rely on a stubborn defense to stay in conference games, but defense has only gotten Kenai so far.

It’s caused Rustad to make offensive production a point of emphasis in practice this year.

Rustad said she would like to see 45 to 50 points on the board every night.

“Our goal this year is to press for 32 minutes, and we have the personnel to do that,” Rustad said. “We want to generate offense from our run-and-jump.”

The two seniors on the team — Hannah Barcus and Allie Ostrander — both return as experienced leaders who can operate an offensive scheme. Supporting Barcus and Ostrander are juniors Hannah Drury, Alli Steinbeck, Alexis Baker and Sarah Every, and sophomore Abby Beck.

With the tallest player listed

“They are learning how to compete on the court,” Kornstad said. “They’re very competitve, but learning to compete with the skills they have. They have a good feel for the game, and have good chemistry amongst this group. I think we have several guys that could be in double figures on any given night.”

Sullivan Jackson and Brady Malston return as two starting seniors, and both are joined by senior bench players Ben Carstens, Garrett Dohse and Nico Castro. A supporting cast of juniors include Cade Anderson, Sam Taurianen, Luke Johnson, Javon Pamplin, Nathan Carstens and Hunter Holloway.

Kornstad said the little things are what count in important matchups during the season, and it has been the little things that the Bulldogs have been working on in practice.

“We have some goals that are related to shooting percentage and turnovers,” Kornstad said. “If we can get off enough shots in practice to raise our percentage to acceptable levels and hang onto the ball, we’re gonna be competitive.”

Nikiski opens its conference schedule at home with a Jan. 10 matchup with Homer.

SEWARD SEAHAWKS The other Peninsula team that earned a state berth at the 3A girls state tournament last spring have gotten off to a steady start in 2014.

The Seward girls topped Homer on the final day of the Kenai River Classic tournament, just two days after the Mariners pulled an upset on Soldotna.

If common opponents are to be studied, then it’s a sure sign that the Seahawks are looking for a fifth straight state berth.

“We’re hoping to get a unit together to make another run at it,” said coach Mark Clemens.

Clemens said he is unsure of how the Southcentral conference will stack up this year, but he believes the road to the region title will go through ACS. “We’ll see what happens, but there’ll be good competition on an equal playing field,” Clemens said. “Last year, it was one powerhouse with all the other teams pretty even.”

With four seniors on the current

at 5-foot-8, the Kardinals are facing an uphill battle against powerhouse opponents Colony, Wasilla and Kodiak. But with returning players keeping up a staunch defense and improved offense, a rise to the occasion seems perfectly suited for the Kards.

“We will rely heavily on our seniors’ leadership,” Rustad said. “I think (Ostrander) is one of the best defenders in the state, regardless of her stature.

I think she can frustrate any guard in the state and cause them to have an off-night.

“Barcus is the player that does the little things for me and does the dirty work.”

Kenai will face the Homer Mariners on Tuesday, before diving into the bulk of its conference schedule with away games against Kodiak Jan. 2 and 3.

varsity roster that have been to the big dance every year, experience and maturity will be a big help. Maria Jackson, Tori Stallings, Jasmine Perea and Kiana Clemens represent the senior class. The four players step into the role recently vacated by graduated starters Ashley VonBorstol and Laura Kromrey.

Other key players such as juniors Jessica Honebein, Iris Anderson, and freshman Ayla Lipanskas add depth to an already stout lineup.

The Seward boys missed the cut to state last year with a region semifinal loss to Houston, but with three returning starters coming back this season, coach Curtis Berry is feeling confident of getting the team back to the state tournament.

“I feel good about our team, and I always will whether we win or lose,” Berry said. “I don’t have any qualms with what we’re doing right now. We just need to figure out a way to get points on the board.”

The current starting five on the roster include seniors Michael Wolfe, Michael Marshall and Alex Pahno, and juniors Paxson Berry and Ronnie Jackson. Coach Berry said he is tinkering with the offensive schemes, as the athleticism of the Seahawks often leads to fastbreak points but Berry said that will only go so far.

“I’m more focused on progressive goals, ones that we can measure, because I don’t feel that long term goals are that realistic if you don’t see how you’re getting to them,” Berry said.

“We don’t want to put it out there in the atmosphere and think by magic we can get there.”

Wolfe, Marshall and Pahno often lead the Seward offense with speed, outworking and outsprinting their opponents with dizzying moves, and Berry said sometimes that can work against them.

“We will play up-tempo the whole game,” Berry said. “Sometimes we out tempo ourselves, make turnovers that are costly, and we lose track of our patience.

“You have to be able to go hard without the ball, and make sure you’re in control with the ball.”

The Seahawks get rolling in their conference schedule with a Jan. 2 matchup against Cordova.

n the the something day of Christmas my true love gave to me, fortyfive cookies, twenty 1-hour photo Christmas cards, three recitals, and my muddled brain in a pear tree. (Disturbing.)

We have two weeks of Christmas vacation. If you have kids in school, this is what your schedule might look like. The first week is hustling like the rent is due. It consists of being thrown into whatever activity the people in your life can come up with.

Everyone wants to party. Bring cookies here. Do a potluck there. Make it rain candy everywhere. Donate your time for this. Buy a little gift for that. Attend everything that you can.

My son in preschool had his Christmas recital at private school, my daughter had her school recital in an auditorium, and then my son had an ice skating Christmas recital.

Let’s talk about that.

All the recitals were very adorable.

Fantastic job by everyone that worked hard on them. The truth about recitals as a parent is a rough, naked truth. I may have picked out my outfit a week prior or an hour prior, but you’ll never know. Have you ever sat behind the lady holding up her giant iPad so no one can see? It’s not fun. I can’t pick on her too much, because I was Sneezy McBeezy three rows back. I didn’t anticipate the yeti in front of me with animal hair all over their coat. It’s my fault, I should be living in a plastic bubble, but I don’t. Are you there God? It’s me, Zyrtec. Everybody give me a round of applause, I’m the smart mom that gave her preschooler chewing gum before he sang in the choir. At least he had fresh minty breath and then spit it out after the first song.

I bought a new tunic for my daughter’s recital, but since I’m an Oompa Loompa, I wore it as a dress. During her recital, I looked down and there was a giant hole in the middle. Maybe I missed that when my daughter was arguing with me to wear my black boots just minutes before we got in the car.

Hello, stomach flu! You started at 5 a.m. then left me crippled that entire afternoon until 4 p.m. where I stood alone like a creeper at the ice skating recital. Don’t worry, I did not touch anything.

I’m not complaining, they were all fantastic, I had a wonderful time, but there’s always a lot of real life happening this time of year. My favorite thing about recitals is they are usually predictable and planned.

For this time of year, that is a huge gift in itself. Bravo!

There is a diplomatic way to handle this time of year. People like to use the word, “stress”. That’s kind of a dirty word in my circle of people. It means your peace is gone and you’re a mess. So I turned the phrase. I’m not stressed, I’m “overwhelmed.” You can be pulled in a million directions and still be in a good mood.

When I was in college, with no kids, husband, or family life for some reason I was always stressed. My stomach would feel like a mix of irritable bowel syndrome and like I drank poison, so I’d take acid reflux pills, which back then looked like purple bees. Maybe they still do.

For the first time in about 12 years, I felt that way this morning. Measuring up your failures will do that to you. I always say, “If you look for disappointment in others, you will always find it.” It’s a way to remind myself to look for the best in people. But the same concept goes for myself. Only that’s not what this time of year is about.

It’s about where our souls can find rest. It’s about having faith in the peace that resides in your heart.

Here’s the thing: We have one week of Christmas vacation left. The first week is challenging and a little chaotic. This week that is left, try to find rest. Already my kids are getting used to being a full time family again. We remember that we have many cousins and shirt-tail cousins (we’re Alaskans after all). We’re not all being pulled in different directions for piano lessons, basketball games, the daily school grind, or whatever else we all do. It’s been nice.

In a crowded room, while decorating cookies at my busy in-laws’ house, my son wrapped his 5-year-old arms around me and whispered what I thought would be tattling on someone, but wasn’t, “Mom, you are super beautiful.” I woke up out of my haze and fell back to earth. This week I plan on doing nothing but love on my loved ones.

Happy New Years!

Learning for Life Studying pests in Alaska Here in Alaska we have relatively few pests on our farms and ranches. When I think about the weeds, diseases, and insects I had to manage as a research agronomist in Washington, Idaho, and New Zealand and compare that to our pest problems in Alaska, I know how lucky we are. However, every year about two new weeds are identified and there is always a new disease or insect pest reported.

The questions are, how do we keep these new pests from establishing and how do we manage the ones we have?

The UAF Cooperative Extension Service recently received a very useful grant to address this issue. The grant is coming from the National Institute of Food and Agriculture in their Crop Protection and Pest Management program. We will need input from all those who grow food, be it plant or animal, for us to accomplish the goals and objectives of the grant.

The grant will fund four part-time​people in Kenai, Palmer, Fairbanks, and Delta Junction, who will be tasked with the goal of visiting

Olsons celebrate 50th anniversary Norm and Mary Olson recently celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary.

They first met at the First Baptist Church of Holly, Michigan and were wed Nov. 28, 1964, the same year Norm enlisted in the Air Force.

Together they traveled around the world and retired to Michigan in 1984. Twenty years later they made their next move to Nikiski where they now reside. They have three children, eight grandchildren and a greatgrandchild due next year. They praise and thank God for the blessing of 50 happy years together.

every farm and ranch in Alaska over the next three summers. During these visits they will scout the fields, pastures and animals for pests, they will teach the owners how they do this, and they will provide information on how to report anything new that the owner may find at some future date.

In addition, the grant funds two part-time people to develop some training videos for managing our most important weeds, diseases and insects with integrated pest management strategies. And herein lies our problem: What are the most important weeds, diseases and insects? I have an opinion, as do many others and, no surprise, our opinions are different. We all understand that the worst pest in Fairbanks may not exist in Skagway or Bethel.

To try to resolve this conundrum, we would like anyone who grows crops or raises animals for food, or anyone who is in an agency that works with farmers and ranchers, to participate in a survey. This survey will let us know your main pest concerns and help us tailor our first year of outreach. The survey is straightforward, it does not take much time to fill out, and it will provide information we need to prioritize our pest management efforts. The survey can be accessed at http://bit.ly/akfarmpests.

We will be advertising this survey as best we can throughout Alaska. Do you know someone who produces food who does not have Internet access or get a newspaper? Let them know what

Norm and Mary Olson

the Cooperative Extension Service is trying to learn. Let them know there are computers that have Internet connections that can be used at their local library. This survey is a fundamental part of improving Alaska’s pest response and management.

As part of this project, we will be working with our new Extension veterinarian, Dr. Lisa Lunn, specifically for detecting external and internal pests of livestock. Students enrolled in the new UAF veterinarian program will be using our collections to practice identifying internal parasites. All the pest information will go into a large database that other organizations and agencies will contribute to as well. The database will be used to track trends, help prioritize which pests to focus on and assess the success of management programs. Not only will we learn where the pests are, but also where the pests are not.

Feline fame in cyberspace gives species a boost PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Cats these days aren’t associated with deities the way they were in ancient Egypt, but the Internet has gotten them a little closer. We adore Nora the piano-playing cat.

We chuckle as a comical feline named Maru leaps into cardboard boxes. We revel in Grumpy Cat’s permanently sour expression. And with millions watching videos of other kitties getting tongue baths from horses and playing peekaboo with their owners, cats have become online stars.

In the affections of Americans, cats often get short shrift compared with dogs. Some see cats as aloof, poor companions and indifferent to attention

that dogs enjoy. But with cats’ celebrity expanding, experts say cyberspace is aiding their plight.

“Social media has put pets front and center,” said Christie Keith, social media consultant for Maddie’s Fund, a California-based foundation that works to save pets’ lives. Social media, she said, “is revolutionizing how we help animals.”

The Internet has created a vast audience of potential adopters. To save pets’ lives, animal welfare organizations are reaching out to an audience addicted to cat videos. Shelters use social media to promote everything from adoption campaigns to free vaccinations, spaying and neutering.

Although there are no comprehensive nationwide statistics, recent studies of targeted communities and available data indicate increases in animal shelters releasing cats to owners or agencies such as rescues that guarantee adoption.

In one of the studies, conducted by the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, shelters and rescue organizations in six areas from Florida to Washington state supplied data from 2007 to 2011. Overall, the rates for dogs and cats released to people or agencies rose from 41 percent to 65 percent. Cats showed a whopping 111 percent boost.

Son’s text of ultrasound brings good news

M

iracles come at Christmastime, and I have yet another reason to believe this might be my best Christmas ever.

There is the good health news I reported on last week, and now my son has found out that, at the advanced age of 36, he will finally become a father.

Tommy and Thelma are ecstatic, although she is going through the sickness stage of pregnancy and might not be thinking very kindly of the experience right now. After they notified us from 2,000 miles away, I told them that the sickness, like everything else, will pass and that my wife will answer any questions this novice mother-to-be might have.

We found out their good news last week when we received a photo by text with no information accompanying it. It appeared to be an ultrasound image of a fetus, with the words

“Hello, Papa” superimposed over it. It took me a minute to realize that here was something good and not some goofy Internet meme.

“Papa” is what my son has called me from childhood, and it’s what my grandchildren have called me for the past couple of decades. It’s an all-purpose, two-generation honorific, as good as “Dad” and “Grandpa” and miles ahead of “Hey, Old-Timer.”

To reassure Tommy about how his life will change, I told him that I have found nothing better than my marriage, children and grandchildren. I can’t imagine any other way of living.

I have told him about the dream state I was in 36 years ago when my name was called in the fathers’ waiting room at the hospital. That was when men were relegated to a smoke-filled room instead of assisting in the birth, support-

ing the wife or holding her hand. Men were secondclass citizens there and, as I found out later, in divorce court and in matters of child custody.

I sat there with other men, inhaling secondhand smoke and reading second-hand magazines.

Glynn Moore When my name was finally called, I closed my magazine, stood up and walked briskly toward the birthing room.

Well, actually, I froze, and a nurse had to walk down long corridors to fetch me. They handed over a large bundle to me, and as I held those 10 pounds, 5 ounces, I gave thanks. The night before the scheduled C-section, you see,

DEAR ABBY: I was married to an incredible man for 32 years. He was quite a bit older and passed away a few months ago.

Along with a wonderful marriage, I also enjoyed the gracious family I married into: stepchildren, step-grandchildren and, in later years, step-greats. Although we rarely used the word “step,” everyone always understood how I was related to them.

My question is, now that my husband is gone, am I still their step-whatever, or did I lose that when my husband died?

We remain close.

DEAR STEPW H AT E V E R : Please accept my condolences for the loss of your husband.

Because your relationship with the family is a warm and close one, you shouldn’t Abigail Van Buren worry. I’m sure you will always be family to them. It’s only when relationships are strained that problems like the one you’re concerned about arise.

DEAR ABBY: While going through some old paperwork, I came across a bunch of pictures of my ex-girlfriend and me. Our relationship ended 10 years ago. She’s married and lives in another state.

Part of me says it’s time to get rid of at least some of them, but I’m not sure how to do it with respect to my ex and our past relationship. The other part of me wants to keep them, as they represent a happy time in my life and what I looked like back then.

My dilemma seems to be that these images still bring out strong emotions and memories even after all this time.

What do you suggest?

— PHOTO-FINISHED? DEAR PHOTO: If the memories and emotions are pleasant ones, hang onto the photos as souvenirs of happy times gone by. If you’re unable to do that, destroy them because time has marched on, and so did the lady in the pictures.

Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Contact Dear Abby at www.

New husband’s suspicions are troubling to his wife DEAR ABBY: I recently got married.

My husband goes through my purse, my papers, my jewelry, my clothes — and even my underwear. He says that as my husband he has the right to do that. He says I am wrong to object.

What are your thoughts on this? I feel like although I’m a wife, I am still a person and have a right to be respected.

How would you react?

— CONFUSED JANE IN THE SOUTH DEAR CONFUSED JANE: I would react by calmly asking my husband why he thought it was necessary to invade my privacy like that and if he thought I was unfaithful, and I’d tell him I regarded it as a threat to the marriage. I’m sure he would react the same way if you searched through his belongings and the history on his phone and computer.

What he is doing is a red flag. It’s an indication that he’s insecure and controlling, and spouses who behave that way have been known to escalate to domestic violence. Marriage counseling NOW might head it off. But if it doesn’t, you would be wise to consider ending the marriage before there are children involved.

Jaqueline Bigar’s Stars HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Sunday, Dec. 28, 2014: This year you have a lot of excitement in your life, especially involving your loved ones. You never know what you will walk into next, and for the most part, you like it that way. You have a tendency to withdraw and sometimes overanalyze situations. Don’t put yourself in a situation where you are not comfortable. If you are single, take your time getting to know someone. This person might be very different from what you think. If you are attached, the two of you can be argumentative. Understand that a fight is the surest way to put distance between you. ARIES can really make you angry!

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH You could be very content, yet at the same time feel rather restrained. You might find that a friend at a distance seems to be rather quiet once you start sharing. Find out why. Someone else is likely to let you know that he or she admires how you handle yourself.

Tonight: Out late.

This Week: Use Monday for meetings and running around.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH You’ll feel more restrained with a certain person than you normally do. What occurs will be much subtler than you might realize. In fact, you could miss out on the true symbolism of a conversation altogether. Later, you’ll have an unexpected realization. Tonight: A must show.

This Week: Think about your New Year’s resolutions.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH Focus on your friends, who often are far more indulgent of your whims than you might realize. One friend could act in a most unexpected way. You are likely to remember this person’s wild behavior for a while. A partner opens up. Tonight: A must appearance.

This Week: By midweek, a lot of confusion surrounds you.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Be willing to assume more responsibility right now. You will enjoy bringing others together, no matter what the excuse. Lighten up a bit more. A loved one could be very controlling. Know that you don’t need to react to that behavior. Tonight: Say “yes.”

This Week: Organize and prioritize your life on Monday.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Your spontaneity will take you down a new path, though you might feel somewhat restricted by a loved one. Break past your judgments, and new ideas will emerge. You know that you are your own biggest obstacle. Tonight: Dinner for two.

This Week: Take Monday off if you can.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH You could decide to let someone else take the lead on making plans. You know that this person will make choices that would please you. An unexpected conversation reveals a weakness in your bond. Don’t worry — it can be corrected. Tonight: Avoid a power play.

This Week: You might decide to go away for New Year’s Eve at the last minute.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH You have a way of getting what you want. Encourage others to make the final decision, and everyone will get more of what he or she wants. A family member could become demanding, and he or she might rain on your parade. Tonight: Have a long-overdue chat.

This Week: Resolve to deal with others’ pet peeves.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Your ability to read a situation correctly will emerge. You might be rethinking an awkward interaction that you had with a loved one. Understand what this person is feeling. Sometimes, it is as simple as asking a question. Tonight: Ever playful.

This Week: Focus on what must be done early.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH You are likely to be a little more stern or serious than you typically are. You could be weighing the pros and cons of continuing on the course you have chosen.

You might decide to take a creative leap in a different direction. Tonight: Don’t push so hard.

This Week: You have a lot to get done, so do it quickly.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Your smile is a sure-bet winner, and it frequently draws in what you want. You seem to be in conflict with a family member, or a situation at home could be irritating you. Go with the unexpected when dealing with this person or matter. Tonight: Order in.

This Week: Once you rest up Monday, you are ready for celebration again.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH You might seem rather ornery as you go out during the day. Whether you’re at the mall returning items or hanging out with a friend, you seem less than pleased.

A surprise might force you to revise your plans. Tonight: Don’t make a big fuss, please.

This Week: Make important calls Monday.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH You could become exhausted just by balancing your checkbook after the past few weeks. You tend to enjoy yourself wherever you are, as long as there are other people around. Curb a tendency to have things go your way. Tonight: Make it your treat.

This Week: Prepare yourself for some company.

Resume Tips - Whip Your Resume Into Shape Expert advice on how to do a resume correctly.

By Kristina Cowan So you’ve discovered the perfect gig with a higher salary, and you’re bent on shuffling your credentials to the hiring manager immediately, if not sooner. You’ve got the experience, education and skills that make you a star candidate.

One hurdle remains: how to do a resume appropriately.

Don’t fret-you can soon be on your way to crafting a stellar resume; just use the following key resume tips from career experts Brian Drum and Heather Heath.

Drum is president and CEO of New York City-based Drum Associates, Inc., a global executive search firm, and Heath, based in Minneapolis, is practice leader of sales and marketing for Hudson, a recruitment and talent management firm.

Expert Resume Tips on How to do a Resume 1. Be accurate and truthful. “A resume should not be embellished or exaggerated-it’s not an exercise in writing a novel. If there’s anything that is not correct or is misstated, it could be a reason for not hiring you,” Drum said.

2. Take two pages for your resume if necessary. Drum said once you have four or five years of experience, it often becomes very difficult to squeeze your career path all onto one page. Heath said she sees two-page resumes “all the time.” Most applicants should avoid three page resumes.

Resume Tip for Recent College Graduates: Stick to one page.

3. Use bullets with concise descriptions. Most resumes that use paragraphs aren’t looked at, Drum explained, so it’s best to use bullets, and keep them to a maximum of two lines a piece.

4. In most cases, list experience before education. If you’re a seasoned executive, it’s best to list your work experience first.

Resume Tip for Recent College Graduates: Put education up top.

5. Mind your keywords! Both Drum and Heath underscored the importance of including terms to help get your resume picked up through online searches. “We’re seeing more and more systems ranking people’s resumes based on how many keywords are being matched. ...

More people are putting more words on their resumes because they understand that tracking systems are keyword-driven,” Heath said.

6. List your contact information, particularly your cell phone number and e-mail address. Heath advises against listing your current work phone number. “I don’t think a potential employer would be impressed that you’re using company resources to find a job,” she said.

7. Use consistent formatting. Use the same size and type of font throughout your resume, such as 12-point Times New Roman. Offsetting your name in a slightly larger font is acceptable. If you cut and paste from various versions of your resume, be sure to align the text and eliminate formatting glitches.

8. Remember to double check your spelling. Heath suggests printing your resume, reading it and proofreading it to catch spelling and grammatical problems. It’s fine to use an automated spell-check, she said, but be wary of such systems introducing errors.

9. Bling on resumes is bad. Steer clear of using lots of large fonts in different colors, and of underscoring and bolding text for extra emphasis. Excessive use of bells and whistles distracts the reader and makes your resume look unprofessional.

10. No headshots, please. Pictures and resumes are like oil and water. If you have the urge, don’t give in.

At the end of the day, Heath said, “People need to remember when they’re sending their resume out they’re sending a version of themselves. ...

Make it a statement-a strong one.”

Happy New Year!

We Love a Parade!

Listen here to a 1931 recording of “I Love a Parade”: tinyurl.com/q8fcyn5

Showcasing California ‘Never on Sunday’

Themes through history

In 1893, New Year’s Day fell on a Sunday. Parade organizers did not want their event to conflict with church services, so it was decided that whenever Jan. 1 was on a Sunday, the parade would be moved to Jan. 2.

The story goes that organizers of the tournament have a deal with God: “We’ll never hold the parade on a Sunday, and he’ll never let it rain on the Rose Parade.”

However, it has rained 10 times during the 125 years of the Rose Parade.

In 1918, organizers of the parade announced the first theme: Patriotism.

Floats and other parade entrants designed their displays around this idea.

The theme for the 2015 parade is Inspiring Stories.

Which world events do you think inspired the following themes?

Kira Willey is a singer and songwriter whose latest album is “How to Be a Cloud: Yoga Songs for Kids Vol. 3.” She has designed a yoga program for kids. Her CD contains songs as well as tracks with Kira giving yoga instructions. A yoga booklet is included.

Kira grew up in Massachusetts and Connecticut. She began taking violin lessons when she was 5. She played in school orchestras and sang in the chorus all through high school. After earning her college degree in psychology, she learned to play the guitar, mandolin and ukulele.

Kira donates part of the profits of her CDs to KidsPeace, which helps kids in trouble. She also volunteers at yoga events at elementary schools and libraries. from The Mini Page © 2014 Universal Uclick

Samaje Perine

Oklahoma Sooners freshman running back Samaje Perine (sa-MAH-jay PEA-ryne) stood on the sidelines early in the fourth quarter of his team’s Nov. 21 game against the Kansas Jayhawks. He’d already had a busy day, rushing 32 times for 378 yards and five touchdowns.

When Sooners head coach Bob Stoops learned Samaje was just 30 yards shy of the Division I single-game rushing record, he had a decision to make: Pull his star out of the game, or go for the record. Stoops decided Samaje was too close not to try. Samaje ran the ball two more times, scampering 42 yards on the second carry to smash the record with 427 rushing yards.

Amazingly, the previous record had been set just one week before when Wisconsin Badgers running back Melvin Gordon rushed for 408 yards and four touchdowns against the Nebraska Cornhuskers. Gordon’s effort had broken the 15-year-old record of 406 yards set by Texas Christian University running back LaDanian Tomlinson.

You’ll need: • 1 pound lean ground beef • 1/4 cup parmesan cheese • 4 crackers (any kind), finely crushed • 1/4 cup spaghetti sauce • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning • 1/3 cup shredded mozzarella cheese What to do: • additional spaghetti sauce as desired 1. Combine ground beef, cracker crumbs, Italian seasoning, parmesan cheese and spaghetti sauce in a bowl.

2. Shape into 12 equal meatballs (approximately 2 tablespoons of mixture each).

3. Spray a shallow cooking pan with cooking spray and place meatballs 2 inches apart.

4. Press a clean finger into center of each meatball and place 1 teaspoon of mozzarella cheese deep in the hole.

5. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes or until meatballs are fully cooked.

6. Serve with additional spaghetti sauce on top of pasta noodles or in a hoagie roll as a sandwich. Makes 12 meatballs.

You will need an adult’s help with this recipe. from The Mini Page © 2014 Universal Uclick from The Mini Page © 2014 Universal Uclick

Parade Notes A new era

Competition

In 1920, motor-driven floats replaced horse-drawn entries completely. Seven years later, coverage of the parade was broadcast nationally over radio. Within a few more years, people could watch film of the parade in movie theaters all across the country during the first several weeks of the year. This made the parade more widely popular.

In 1951, just as color television was being introduced, the parade was shown on a network broadcast.

Today, nearly 700,000 spectators gather along the parade route to watch in person. About 80 million will watch on television in about 115 countries around the world.

Modern floats are mostly built by professional companies and take much of the year to construct. Many use computers and animation to make their floats come alive as they travel along the parade route.

Three judges select winners for 24 different awards each year. All of the surface materials have to be natural, such as flowers, bark, seaweed, fruits or nuts.

Grand Marshal Louis Zamperini 1917-2014

Grand marshals

About 900 volunteers wearing white suits and red neckties work to make sure that the parade goes smoothly each year. They guard floats overnight, explain the details of floats to spectators after the parade, and ride white scooters alongside the floats, guiding them through the parade route.

Look for the white-suiters as you watch the parade!

A Parade Scrapbook

During most years of the parade’s history, a grand marshal has been named as the honorary leader of the parade.

Sometimes a grand marshal is honored posthumously (PAHS-chuhmus-lee), or after his or her death.

In 2015, the grand marshal will be Louis Zamperini. Although he died in July 2014 at age 97, Mr. Zamperini will be honored for his service in World War II, during which he was a prisoner of war of the Japanese.

Mr. Zamperini also was an Olympic distance runner. He competed in the 1936 Olympics in Berlin, Germany. from The Mini Page © 2014 Universal Uclick

By the late 1800s, many Americans had moved from the East Coast and Midwest to Southern California. They wanted to share their warm, sunny “paradise” with everyone.

In 1890, members of the Valley Hunt Club in Pasadena organized a festival that included foot races, polo games, tug of war and other competitions. They called it the Tournament of Roses because of the fresh flowers that grew there, even during the winter.

To start the festivities, a parade was planned in which entrants decorated their horse-drawn carriages with thousands of flowers.

The 1891 Rose Parade featured the first musical entry, the Monrovia Town Band. from The Mini Page © 2014 Universal Uclick

Do you love a parade? Communities celebrate many different holidays with parades: July Fourth, Veterans Day, Memorial Day and others.

One parade that millions of people watch all over the world is the Rose Parade on New Year’s Day. This week, The Mini Page learns all about the Rose Parade in Pasadena, California.

Can you see the beautiful flowers used to make the different colors of this elephant?

The Hawaii All-State Marching Band was a colorful addition to the 2014 parade. Bands also participate in a three-day Bandfest before New Year’s Day.

The St. Augustine (Florida) High School Marching Band high-steps during the parade.

Many high school and college bands spend all year raising money to travel to the Rose Parade in Pasadena. Bands must be invited to march in the parade.

The Mini Page thanks the Tournament of Roses for help with this issue.

Thirty people who had received donated organs rode the float, and 12 donors walked alongside.
