By MICHAEL ARMSTRONG Homer News
The Kenai Grand Jury last month indicted a Ninilchik man for three counts of attempted murder stemming from an incident that happened at the Ninilchik American Legion parking lot in mid-December. In the indictment filed Dec. 19, 2018, the grand jury alleged that Ramonne E. Kirksey, 38, pulled the trigger on a .22 pistol three times while the weapon was pointed at Samuel Mireles while Mireles was trying to help two women Kirksey had confronted. The pistol did not fire and Mireles and the women were not injured. According to an affidavit by Alaska State Trooper Kevin Gill, Kirksey admitted pulling the trigger three times, but believed the safety was activated. The indictment charged Kirksey with a count of first-degree attempted murder for each pull of the trigger. Kirksey also was charged with first-degree assault, thirddegree assault, and third-degree misconduct involving weapons for being a felon in possession of a firearm (those are all felonies) and misdemeanor counts of second-degree stalking and two counts of fourth-degree assault. According to Trooper Gill’s affidavit, at about 9:05 p.m. Dec. 13, a woman called 911 reporting that Kirksey had approached her car parked at the Ninilchik American Legion. The woman spoke with Gill, and while on the phone with Gill, said Kirksey left. Another woman in the car had called Mireles for help to escort them home, Gill wrote. Kirksey then returned and confronted Mireles and left again. Troopers responded after Kirksey had left the second time. When Mireles showed up, he told Gill that Kirksey was “spitting up a storm.” Mireles told Kirksey to leave, according to the affidavit. Kirksey went back to his car, reached inside and grabbed something, and then said “all right, do something.” Mireles told troopers he went into his own car, and that when he tried to guide the women in the other car away, Kirksey blocked the cars with his own vehicle. Mireles told Kirksey to get away, and reported to Gill that Kirksey then came up to the driver’s side window, open about 3 inches, pointed a pistol at him and pulled it three times. Mireles said he heard the See MURDER, page A3

into question Thursday in a letter from a Washington business owner. John Quick, Gov. Mike Dunleavy’s choice for Department of Administration commissioner, listed on his resume and stated during a Tuesday confirmation hearing that he owned a Washington business called Anthem Coffee & Tea/ Elements Frozen Yogurt. One of the registered owners of Anthem Coffee & Tea/ Elements Frozen Yogurt, Janie Reynolds, wrote a letter to the Alaska Senate Joint Finance and State Affairs Committee stating that Quick never had any ownership in the business.

Reynolds denied each time, she wrote in the letter. “After many months of promises to organize and bring structure to our company, we fired him in June 2012,” Reynolds wrote in the letter. “John never had any percentage of ownership.

Further assessments have found little damage to Kenai Peninsula infrastructure after the 7.0 magnitude earthquake rumbled Southcentral Alaska on Nov. 30 last year. Kenai Peninsula Borough Emergency Manager Dan Nelson said all borough buildings have been deemed safe to occupy.

Soldotna City Council rejected an ordinance that would prohibit the use of hand-held electronic devices, like cellphones, while driving in school zones and on school property. At Wednesday night’s meeting, the ordinance failed with a 5 to 1 vote. Council member Jordan Chilson, the sole ‘yes’ vote, introduced the ordinance as a response to House Bill 333, which gave cities the ability to regulate the use of cellphones while operating a motor vehicle in active school zones and on school property. “This is kind of an issue at the high school level,” Chilson said. “They do deal with some high school students texting while driving, but it was not nearly as much of an issue as it
was at an elementary level with parents coming and sitting in these pick up lines and not necessarily putting their eyes above the wheel while moseying forward.” Other council members agreed that it is an issue, but cited a lack of ability to enforce the proposed ordinance. “I don’t see the need for another ordinance to tell people they can’t do this when they probably know by common sense that they shouldn’t be doing it,” council member Paul Whitney said. “They’re just going to continue doing it.” Several schools throughout the district have addressed the issue by putting up bright signage warning against cellphone use. Council members said the signage and further action from the school district to educate against these types of See CELL, page A3
Dunleavy picks shake up board regulating marijuana By BECKY BOHRER The Associated Press
The board that regulates Alaska’s legal marijuana industry could be shifting right, with appointments by Republican Gov. Mike Dunleavy of a marijuana critic and a law enforcement officer who
would like to revisit onsite use rules. Dunleavy’s appointments of Vivian Stiver and Lt. Christopher Jaime are subject to legislative confirmation. Stiver replaces Brandon Emmett, an industry representative on the Marijuana Control Board. Jaime, an
Alaska Wildlife Trooper from Soldotna who also has worked as an Alaska State Trooper, replaces Sitka Police Chief Jeff Ankerfelt. Ankerfelt was appointed by former Gov. Bill Walker but had not yet been confirmed. The law establishing the
Sea lion bites fisherman, tries to drag him into sea By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ANCHORAGE — A sea lion lunged onto a fishing boat off the Aleutian Islands last weekend, biting a crew member on the leg and trying to pull him into the water, officials said. It marked the third time since 2017 that Steller sea lions have bitten fishermen from the community of Sand Point on their legs. Crew members on the boat Sunday afternoon when the latest attack happened took the man to a medical clinic, where he was treated for his injuries and released, Sand Point police officer David Anderson told the Anchor-
age Daily News. The newspaper reported that the crew member was helping pull up a net when the sea lion lurched up the stern ramp of the boat and bit him, attempting to drag him into the water. The newspaper said it could not immediately reach the injured man for comment Wednesday. Such attacks by sea lions are unusual, but not unheard of in recent years. In early 2018, a sea lion bit a woman in the knee as she swam in the San Francisco Bay. That followed at least two other attacks on swimmers in the San Francisco Bay in late 2017. In one of those, a sea lion bit a man’s groin area and in the other,
a sea lion bit a man’s arm. In Sand Point, a fisherman was attacked by a sea lion last fall, suffering similar injuries as the man in the Sunday attack, Anderson said. In another Sand Point attack in January 2017, a fisherman was bitten on the calf while he worked on a boat. He reported the animal tried to drag him into the water. Sand Point Harbor Master Richard Kochuten Sr. said he has no idea why sea lions have bitten people in his community. He said, however, that it’s far more common for sea lions to get on boats to grab a fish and then go back into the water without harming anyone.
five-member board calls for up to two members who are actively involved in the industry though one of those seats could go to a member of the general public. Nicholas Miller retains an industry seat. There is also a public health seat, held by Loren
Jones, and a rural seat, held by Mark Springer. Ankerfelt voted with Emmett and Miller last month in approving rules for allowing onsite use of marijuana at authorized stores. Dunleavy spokesman Matt Shuckerow has said the recent decision See BOARD, page A2
Kenai man accused of stealing laptop, truck By BRIAN MAZUREK Peninsula Clarion
A Kenai man has been charged with stealing a laptop from Walmart and a pickup truck, according to a Jan. 18 affidavit filed by the Kenai police. Jacob Darrell Snyder, 24, allegedly went to the Walmart in Kenai on Jan. 13 and took a laptop from the store without purchasing it by cutting the security cable. According to the affidavit, the loss prevention supervisor at Walmart reported to police that Snyder then returned to Walmart on Jan. 17 in a distinct pickup. The vehicle was described as a green Ford F-150 with its passenger window busted out and taped over,
and which was reported stolen on Jan.17, according to the affidavit. An officer identified the pickup in the Kenai Safeway parking lot on Jan. 18, which matched the description given. The officer confronted Snyder, who was driving the truck at the time, and questioned him about the vehicle theft and the laptop theft. According to the affidavit, Snyder claimed that he bought the truck for $200 but would not give the name of the individual who sold it to him. After further questioning, Snyder requested to speak with an attorney. Snyder faces one charge of first-degree vehicle theft, a class C felony, and one charge of second-degree theft, also a class C felony.

to replace Ankerfelt was not based on prior policy positions. Shuckerow, in an email Wednesday, said it’s no secret that Stiver “holds a certain skepticism for legal marijuana use,” which he said other Alaskans share. He said Dunleavy believes she will help bring a valuable perspective to the board. Dunleavy’s administration recognizes legal marijuana “is the law of the land, and will do their part to enforce the law, but also want to give concerned Alaskans — as the law intended — a voice in the decision-making process,” Shuckerow wrote. Stiver was involved in a failed 2017 effort to ban

a verbal agreement with the Reynolds family in 2011. Quick wrote that he and the Reynolds family created Anthem Coffee & Tea/Elements Frozen Yogurt. “As the businesses grew, it became clear that the verbal agreement I entered into was not going to materialize into a written agreement,” Quick wrote in his letter. “After numerous negotiations with the Reynolds family and much heartache for me and my family, we parted ways.” Along with his letter, Quick attached scans of newspaper articles about him and Bryan Reynolds (Jamie’s son) starting the business. Dunleavy Press Secretary Matt Shuckerow provided the letter and a brief statement to media members. “We are looking forward to Commissioner Quick’s confirmation and his continued work on behalf of Alaskans,” Shuckerow said in the statement.

marijuana operations in Fairbanks. The Fairbanks area has become a prominent growing region for the legal industry. Alaskans voted to legalize so-called recreational use of marijuana in 2014, and Stiver said she can’t change that. But she said she can contribute to efforts to move forward in a responsible way. Education is important, she said. “There are aspects of legalization that aren’t so good, right? I mean, that just can’t be denied,” she said. “So I want to contribute what I can, the best that I can that people have knowledge, our youth have knowledge, they understand what can happen.” Emmett, who said he is serving on the board through February, when his term expires, called Stiver an “abject prohibitionist” who has fought the industry. “I don’t think she repre-
sents the general public in Alaska and certainly not the majority of the public in Fairbanks,” said Emmett, who is from Fairbanks. He added later: “This isn’t just me throwing stones because I’m unhappy about losing my seat.” Jaime said he wants to educate himself on issues facing the board. He said respecting the wishes of the people is important but sensible regulations also are needed. “We already opened the door, now we need to regulate it and go slow,” he said. He and Stiver expressed concern about onsite use. Jaime said the issue should be revisited if possible. Stiver said she wants to learn more about how the board reached its decision. The proposed rules for allowing onsite use of marijuana at authorized stores
were sent to the Department of Law for further review and must yet be finalized. Once they are, interested businesses would have to apply for a special onsite use endorsement and devise plans that would meet ventilation and other standards and pass muster with the board. Chris Lindsey, senior legislative counsel with the Marijuana Policy Project, has said Alaska would have the first regulatory framework for onsite use at the state level. Cary Carrigan, executive director of the Alaska Marijuana Industry Association, said he hopes onsite use moves forward. He said the industry has proven itself to be responsible and answerable to the public. “Every time something has come up to that needed to be addressed by the industry, we have done so,” he said.
tions, property management, retirement and benefits programs, information and telecommunications systems, and more. Tuesday’s hearing was not to confirm Quick, but was to do an interview with him on the record. The members of the joint committee wrote up a report afterward, but the committee members do not make recommendations, Sen. Bert Stedman, R-Sitka (chair of the Senate Finance Committee) said after the meeting. The House and Senate must both approve of a designee to confirm them as commissioner. During Tuesday’s confirmation hearing in front of the joint committee, senators asked him a variety of questions about his resume and his experience as a business owner. Quick was most recently the Kenai Borough’s chief of staff. Sen. Bill Wielechowski, DAnchorage, asked two questions about Quick’s resume. The final one was specifically about Anthem Coffee & Tea, asking when Quick sold the company and to whom he sold it. “That was in 2014, I believe,” Quick said, taking a few moments to recall the exact
year. “The other party’s a private party and probably doesn’t want to be spoken about in a public setting. It’s a friend from high school.” Reynolds stated in her letter that she and Larry (her husband) have always been the only owners of the company. Reynolds wrote that the private party Quick spoke of is “fictitious.” In his letter, Quick wrote that he was incorrect when he said 2014 at the hearing. He said he should have clarified to Wielechowski that he parted ways with the company instead of accepting Wielechowski’s terminology that he sold the company. Quick’s resume also lists him as an owner or co-owner of three other businesses. One is the Guild Co-Working Space, based in Tacoma, Washington. The Washington State Department of Revenue lists that business as We Are Guild LLC, with Quick co-owning it with Jacob Moroshan. Another business on his resume is an e-commerce supplement-selling company called Island Vibrance. The website islandvibrance.com no longer exists, but posts from public relations firm PRReach
in 2015 state that the company sold vitamins and minerals. Another entry on his resume is as a business platform owner on Amazon.com. Wielechowski specifically asked about that job, probing for what the business was and how many people worked under Quick. “We had proprietary supplements, whether it be vitamins or other things of that nature and we, at the time, were one of the top-selling supplements companies on Amazon,” Quick said in response. Sen. Scott Kawasaki, DFairbanks, asked Quick how his experience as a small business owner would help him. Kawasaki pointed out that the Department of Administration is a tall task, having a budget of $340 million and overseeing a number of other smaller divisions. “I think part of the experience of starting a business and owning a business is figuring out how to do it on the ground running,” Quick said as part of his response. “That experience, I think, lends itself to, ‘What does it look like to become a small business owner and entrepreneur?’”

Penny Lee Lopez
Charles Preston Johnson
May 6, 1949 - January 16, 2019
February 12, 1935 - January 12, 2019
Penny Lee Lopez (née Hansen) passed peacefully into eternity Wednesday, January 16, 2019 with family at her side in Anchorage, Alaska. Penny was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. Mom was born to Earl Hansen and Mable Hansen (née Rodriguez) on May 6, 1949 in the quaint coastal community of San Luis Obispo, California. Although a transplant to Alaska, mom never abandoned her love for her birthstate. Mom frequently shared stories with her children and grandchildren of her her devoted love for her mother and father and experiences from her childhood growing up in California. Mom’s family had property that overlooked the Pacific ocean where her father planted strawberries and peas. Mom recalled, with very fond memory, how she, her father, and mother would often visit their land and spend Sundays eating picnics in the breeze. Later in her young life, mom would meet a handsome young man also from San Luis Obispo- Jerry Lopez. The two fell madly in love and then married, eventually moving their family to Anchorage, Alaska as a result of Dad’s reassignment with the U.S. Army National Guard. Mom and Dad loved Alaska where they raised their modest family of four children. Later, Mom and Dad moved south to the Kenai Peninsula where they adored the quiet seclusion and small-town atmosphere where they could raise JL, the youngest of the four children. An avid dog lover, mom cared for her kids (dogs) as if they were her own children and these kids always knew they were well loved and part of the family. Mom loved her family deeply and they were always on her mind. She also was very devoted to The Lord, faith and scriptures and could be found, on any given day either listening to scriptures or singing hymns. She was truly a daughter of God. Mom is survived by her children: Christina Fowler of Georgia; Cherri Barrick (Mark Barrick) of Boise, ID; Christopher Lopez (Priscilla Jones-Lopez) of Herriman, UT and Jerry Lopez (Jazmin Lopez) of Kenai, AK; seventeen grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren. Mom once again takes her place at Dad Jerry’s side. May The Lord bless you both as you make your journey together into eternal realms where darkness is forever banished by the light of love and where oceans of peace and sweet tranquility surround you. Services will be held on Saturday Jan 26th at 11am at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, 159 Marydale Soldotna, AK 99669.

He was born Feb. 12, 1935 in Steubenville, Ohio. He was an Army Staff Sargent who served 8 years in The Korean War. In 1969 he moved to Alaska living in Nikiski. Chuck worked 21 years as a FAAS Tug Boat Operator and Barge. He retired at the age of 55 from FAAS. Chuck loved hunting, fishing, and various other things. The family wrote, “Chuck was a longtime resident of Nikiski. He was a very well liked friend. He leaves behind Chuck Ceders, Becky and Stosh Puch, and Jerry Peterson Daryl Moore. He was a great father and grandfather and will be greatly missed. His stories will be missed. Always kept all the kids, and grandkids entertained.” He was preceded in death by his wife, Mary (Betty) Johnson; son, David P. Johnson and parents Ann and Charlie Johnson.

gun click but not fire. Kirksey then drove away, hitting a snowbank on his way out. Troopers also got a 911 call from an American Legion employee who saw the incident. He said he heard someone yelling “Put down that gun” and “Quit pointing that gun at me.” Gill interviewed the two women. They said they had been at the American Legion and leaving when Kirksey pulled up in his older model Oldsmobile. He drove around the parking lot and followed them. They said they drove to an area by the building that had cameras there. Kirksey got out and tried to open the locked doors of their car, calling them profane names. Both women told Gill that Kirksey’s actions made them fearful. The women knew Kirksey from previous encounters. Gill and two other troopers later talked to Kirksey at his Ninilchik home. He said he had gone to the American Legion to confront one of the women and drove around the parking lot following them. Gill said Kirksey admitted the women “probably” did not want to stop
driving and agreed he was “kind of” trying to force them into stopping. He said his actions were not “gentleman like.” He said he pulled a gun because we was “hurt” and “f—-ed up.” After denying he had a gun, he later showed troopers a Beretta Model U22 .22LR caliber handgun. Kirksey said he got the gun from a friend he could only name as “a big Indian dude.” Gill wrote that Kirksey said he had not put a magazine in the gun when he went back to confront the women and Mireles, but then changed his story and said he had put a magazine in the gun. Kirksey believed the safety was on when he fired the Beretta at Mireles, he told troopers. Kirksey told troopers he regretted his actions and was ashamed of himself. In his affidavit, Gill wrote that a records check showed Kirksey had felony convictions out of Kansas. Kirksey told troopers he had been convicted of robbery, and completed his parole in March 2011. According to online Alaska court records, Kirksey has a prior 2016 conviction in Alaska for failure to stop at the direction of an officer. In that case he was ordered to complete 40 hours of community work service.

cancer. According to the lawsuit, Brown received her diagnosis on May 24, 2018 and notified Pierce on June 13, 2018, after being approved for intermittent medical leave. In the court documents, Brown alleges that Pierce’s response to the news about her diagnosis included inappropriate comments that implied her diagnosis was “not a big deal.” Brown also claims that in the months after notifying Pierce and the borough about her diagnosis, Pierce excluded her from meetings pertaining to her job, publicly humiliated her, and rescheduled her performance evaluation on dates when Brown had ap-
proved medical leave, according to court documents. Brown alleges that the discrimination culminated in a meeting with Pierce’s chief of staff on Sept. 28, 2018, and that she had been lied to about the purpose of the meeting. After arriving, Brown alleges, the chief of staff and the borough attorney told her that the meeting had actually been called at the direction of the mayor — who had ordered them to meet and notify Brown that she was terminated, effective immediately. Brown was the director of human resources for the borough from 2012 to 2018, and Pierce was elected as borough mayor in November of 2017. The mayor’s office did not respond to requests for comments on the lawsuit.

months. Nelson said after the earthquake there were a lot of little things that were fixed right away, such as cracks in borough-maintained roads. In the city of Kenai, City Manager Paul Ostrander said there was little to report after damage assessments. The Kenai dock was slightly damaged along with an inactive well house, and the building surrounding the well house, which has now partially subsided, Ostrander said. The city also experienced a water main break in one of the city’s neighborhoods, which occurred a week or so after the earthquake and was fixed shortly

Nelson said there were a lot of scattered incidents to homes in the borough, but that the state will handle the federal assistance process for residents. “If you think you have damage you can report it,” Nelson said. “It’s a fairly simple to process to get started on.” Nelson said now is a good time for residents to evaluate their own home emergency plans. “It’s a really good time to look at any plans you have for an emergency,” Nelson said. “Just in case the next big earthquake is a little further south.”

What Others Say
Goodell’s bad call Three days after referees blew a blatant pass interference call and robbed the New Orleans Saints of a return trip to the Super Bowl, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has said nothing publicly. A league official admitted to Coach Sean Payton almost immediately Sunday night that the officiating crew blew the call on the goal line that would have set the Saints up to run down the clock and make a winning score. At his post-game press conference, Coach Payton said NFL senior vice president of officiating Alberto Riveron called to admit the costly error at the end of regulation in the NFC Championship against the Rams. “Just getting off the phone with the league office, they blew the call,” Coach Payton said. Every Saints fan already knew that, but it was important for the NFL to acknowledge it. There’s been nothing since, though. Come out of hiding, Mr. Goodell. We don’t need you to tell us what we all saw. We need you to tell us what you’re going to do about it. If you’re not going to invoke Rule 17 to undo the damage, and you clearly are not, we need to know why. Section 2, Article 1, of Rule 17 seems made for this situation: “The Commissioner has the sole authority to investigate and take appropriate disciplinary and/or corrective measures if any club action, non-participant interference, or calamity occurs in an NFL game which the Commissioner deems so extraordinarily unfair or outside the accepted tactics encountered in professional football that such action has a major effect on the result of the game.” If this isn’t “extraordinarily unfair,” what is? Will this officiating crew be disciplined? These refs are responsible for possibly the worst no-call in NFL history. They have decided who is in the Super Bowl. How can they continue to call games? How can any team feel comfortable with them? And what about Rams cornerback Nickell Robey-Coleman? He admits the whole thing. “Oh, hell yeah, that was PI,” he told The Washington Post. “I just know I got there before the ball got there. And I whacked his ass.” He actually seems proud of himself. Why should he get to play in the Super Bowl after essentially admitting he targeted Saints receiver Tommylee Lewis? What about the NFL’s claims to be concerned about reducing head injuries? What about the future? What is the NFL going to do to make sure no other team is the victim of such egregious referee ineptitude? And what about the ramifications beyond the game itself? That no-call cost Saints’ players tens of thousands of dollars they would have earned in the Super Bowl. It cost New Orleans businesses the money giddy fans would have spent after the game Sunday night and beyond. It cost our community the economic and emotional high that comes from having your team in the Super Bowl. Saints fans long ago gave up on Roger Goodell being fair, so our expectations aren’t high. Mr. Goodell was selfrighteous when he handed down severe punishments for the Saints’ bounty scandal in 2012, including suspending Sean Payton for a full season. “We are all accountable and responsible for player health and safety and the integrity of the game,” Mr. Goodell said in a statement then. “We will not tolerate conduct or a culture that undermines those priorities. No one is above the game or the rules that govern it. Respect for the game and the people who participate in it will not be compromised.” What about now, Mr. Goodell? What about the integrity of the NFC Championship and the Super Bowl? We’re waiting to hear from you.
In defense of the MAGA hat
The fundamental offense of the Covington Catholic High School kids wasn’t so much allegedly mobbing, mocking or getting in the face of an American Indian drummer at the Lincoln Memorial. It was wearing red Make America Great Again hats. That was the actual, incontestable conduct that created the predicate for the presumption of guilt and all the rest of the grief they’ve been subjected to since. For much of progressive America, if you are wearing the hat, you are suiting up for Team Racist. You are marking yourself out as a bigot and a goon. Your individuality doesn’t matter anymore, only the cap. The entire Covington incident might have played out differently if the kids had been wearing red Washington Nationals caps. The imbroglio might not have gotten any attention at all. Even if it did, progressives taking a critical view of the students might have been more inclined to view them as immature teenagers rather than totems of hate. As an analysis at Vox noted of the Covington incident, “The hats extinguished pretty much any benefit of the doubt a liberal observer might have given these kids.” Exactly. Alyssa Milano notoriously tweeted, “The red MAGA hat is the new white hood.” Which would be close to an apt analogy if people donned MAGA hats to carry out hideously violent crimes against African-Americans and other people uncongenial to them. In a similar vein, TV writer and pro-
be incumbent on adults to realize, much though they hate Donald Trump, that not everyone who supports him or wears his political paraphernalia is a hater. But it is the adults who take the childishly reductive view of this question. When Jamie Lee Curtis regretted her snap condemnation of the students, journalist Victoria Brownworth tweeted at the actress her disappointment: “DID YOU MISS THE MAGA HATS?” This is why very little outrage has been directed at the venomous, freakishly antigay, openly racist Black Hebrews who berated and taunted the students. They weren’t wearing MAGA hats. And this is why much of the left didn’t want to relent in the campaign against the students, even after exculpatory video emerged. It wasn’t just that many progressives still took a hostile view of events; they knew for a fact that the kids — at least some of them — had worn MAGA caps. And what else was there to know? For them, this rendered the Covington students simply political and social symbols to be crushed underfoot. Never mind that each of them was a teenage kid who — even if you think he has bad taste or noxious political views now — has a lifetime ahead of him to grow and change. They wore the hats, and can never be forgiven.
the Totenkopf. This is, to put it mildly, an uncharitable view of their fellow citizens, who voted by the tens of millions for the guy who invented the red cap. It speaks to the marketing genius of Donald Trump that he managed to create not just a potent piece of campaign memorabilia, but a cultural marker that will forever be associated with this period of our national life. The MAGA hat denotes support for him, yes, but also a certain boldness and unwillingness to be bullied that isn’t merely symbolic — people occasionally get assaulted for doing nothing other than wearing the caps. And why not, if the cap symbolizes only one thing for the left? As Commonweal magazine columnist Mollie O’Reilly wrote of the Covington controversy, “You don’t let your kid wear a MAGA hat and then act offended when they get taken for a racist.” Well, there’s the minor detail that your Rich Lowry can be reached via email at kid might not be remotely racist.

Ex-Trump lawyer Michael Cohen to comply with Senate subpoena By MICHAEL R. SISAK and ERIC TUCKER Associated Press
WASHINGTON — A Senate committee investigating Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election has subpoenaed President Donald Trump’s former personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, and Cohen intends to comply with the interview demand next month, his attorney said Thursday. The development comes one day after Cohen postponed his public testimony to a House committee. Lanny Davis, a lawyer for Cohen, disclosed the subpoena from the Senate intelligence committee in a one-sentence statement. He later said the two sides — NOLA.com/The Times-Picayune, Jan. 23 had agreed on a Feb. 12 interview. Cohen, the president’s onetime fixer, is set to begin a three-year prison sentence in March.

Feb. 7 appearance before the House Committee on Oversight and Reform on the advice of his legal team, citing ongoing cooperation in special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation and threats against his family. Trump, along with his attorney Rudy Giuliani, has publicly urged the Justice Department to investigate Cohen’s father-in-law , insinuating that Cohen’s relative was part of some unspecified criminal activity. “If he wants to criticize Cohen, he can,” Davis said. “Obviously, picking on his family publicly is a way of silencing him or intimidating him. And certainly he has engendered great fear in his extended family, which is why we postponed it.” In an interview Thursday, Davis said the House should take an immediate vote on censuring Trump “as a step before an impeachment investigation,” and he pushed for a criminal investigation of Giuliani involving allegations of obstruction, witness intimidation and witness tampering. The decision to postpone the House interview pushed back the chance of a public airing on additional details of Co-
hen’s relationship with Trump, including hush-money payments that Cohen has admitted helping arrange for two women who say they had sex with the president. Trump has denied the allegation. Democrats have suggested they may subpoena Cohen to compel his testimony and the committee’s chairman, Democratic Rep. Elijah Cummings of Maryland, said Cohen could be brought from prison to appear before Congress. “We will get his testimony,” Cummings said. Cohen pleaded guilty in November to lying to the Senate intelligence committee about his role in a Trump business proposal in Moscow, acknowledging that he misled lawmakers by saying he had abandoned the project in January 2016 when he actually continued pursuing it for months after that and deep into the presidential campaign. He has also pleaded guilty to campaign finance violations for his involvement in payments to a former Playboy model and porn actress who had alleged affairs with Trump. CNN was first to report the existence of the subpoena.

Nation/World Police say Florida bank attack was random act By TERRY SPENCER and JENNIFER KAY Associated Press
SEBRING, Fla. — Investigators have found no obvious reason why a man accused of fatally shooting five women picked a small-town bank in Florida as the place to carry out his attack, authorities said Thursday. Zephen Xaver’s attack did not appear to be part of a robbery, and he had no apparent connection to the SunTrust branch or the four employees and one customer who were killed, police said. There was also no evidence that Wednesday’s attack was planned, although a former girlfriend said Xaver often talked of killing people. “We believe it was a random act,” Sebring Police Chief Karl Hoglund said Thursday at a news conference. “Aside from perhaps driving by and seeing it was a bank, we have no known evidence that he targeted this bank for any particular reason.” That randomness hit Carol Davis, who manages the hair salon and spa next door, hard. If the gunman had driven 10 seconds farther, just one more driveway, the victims would have been her, her staff and her customers. “He could have come here. He could have gone anywhere.
It could happen anywhere,” she said. Xaver, 21, was charged Thursday with five counts of premeditated murder. Just months ago, he moved from northern Indiana to Sebring, about 80 miles southeast of Tampa. He had recently quit his job as a prison guard trainee. From police and witness accounts, he entered the bank about 12:30 p.m. Wednesday when the five women were alone. The bank sits apart along U.S. 27, a busy four-lane highway that connects south and central Florida, passing mostly through farms and small towns like Sebring, a tourist and retirement city of 10,000 known internationally for an annual endurance auto race that draws some of the world’s top drivers. The victims were found lying face down, their bodies surrounded by shell casings, according to court documents. Six minutes after the attack began, Xaver called 911 and told dispatchers that he had killed everyone inside, Hoglund said. Victor Sparks told the Highlands News-Sun he walked up to the bank and found the door locked. He peered inside and saw people lying on the floor while someone walked around and between them. As he turned away, he heard gunfire and called 911. Davis said she looked out her window and saw police officers

everywhere, many carrying rifles. “I have never seen stuff like that except in the movies.” Xaver refused to surrender and would not allow officers to reach the victims, Hoglund said. After more than an hour of negotiations, the chief ordered a SWAT team in. They used an armored vehicle to break through the front doors. Xaver was found in a back office. By then, all the victims were dead, the chief said. Hoglund identified three victims: customer Cynthia Watson, 65, and two employees: 55-year-old Marisol Lopez and 38-year-old Ana Pinon Willliams, a mother of seven. Tim Williams said his sister-
in-law was a devout Christian “and family to everyone she knew.” She had recently started working at the bank, and she quickly came to love the job and her co-workers, he said. “We do not know what was going on in the mind of the individual who committed this atrocious act, but we do know he was influenced by the darkness in this world,” Williams said. “We will not try to understand the darkness, but with God’s help we will overcome it.” Lopez’s family posted a note on their door asking not to be disturbed. The Associated Press could find no contact information for Watson’s family.
Senate rejects rival Dem, GOP plans for reopening government

WASHINGTON — A splintered Senate swatted down competing Democratic and Republican plans for ending the 34-day partial government shutdown on Thursday, leaving President Donald Trump and Congress with no obvious formula for halting the longestever closure of federal agencies and the mounting damage it is inflicting around the country. The twin setbacks triggered a swirl of bipartisan activity, unseen for weeks, aimed at re-
solving the vitriolic stalemate, if only temporarily. A day before 800,000 federal workers faced a second payday with no paychecks, senators seemed to have had enough of the standoff and had decided it was time to seek a way out. A parade of senators from both parties took to the Senate floor to advocate reopening agencies for three weeks while bargainers seek a solution. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., dashed to the office of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., to explore potential next steps. “We’re talking,” Schumer
told reporters, one of the most encouraging statements either side has made since the shutdown began Dec. 22. At the White House, Trump told reporters he’d support a “reasonable” compromise but suggested he’d want it to include a “pro-rated down payment for the wall,” which he did not describe. He said he has “other alternatives” for getting wall funding, an apparent reference to his disputed claim that he could declare a national emergency and fund its construction using other programs in the federal budget. It was initially unclear whether the flurry of activity would produce results. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., whose relationship with Trump seems to have soured by the day, told reporters a “big” down payment would not be “a reasonable agreement.” Asked if she knew how much money Trump meant, Pelosi said, “I don’t know if he knows what he’s talking about.” In an embarrassment to Trump that could weaken his position whenever negotiations get serious, the Democratic proposal got two more votes than the GOP plan. There were six Republican defectors, including freshman Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, who’s clashed
periodically with the president. For most of Thursday, both parties in conflicting ways to showed their sympathy for unpaid federal workers while yielding no ground in their fight over Trump’s demand to build a border wall with Mexico. The Senate first rejected a Republican plan reopening government through September and giving Trump the $5.7 billion he’s demanded for building segments of that wall, a project that he’d long promised Mexico would finance. The 50-47 vote for the measure fell 10 shy of the 60 votes needed to succeed. Minutes later, senators voted 52-44 for a Democratic alternative that sought to open padlocked agencies through Feb. 8 with no wall money. That was eight votes short. It was aimed at giving bargainers time to seek an accord while getting paychecks to government workers who are either working wihout pay or being forced to stay home. Flustered lawmakers said Thursday’s votes could be a reality check that would prod the start of talks. Throughout, the two sides have issued mutually exclusive demands that have blocked negotiations from even starting: Trump has refused to reopen government until Congress gives him the wall money,
Deadly California fire caused by homeowner equipment By DON THOMPSON Associated Press
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — In a long-awaited report, state investigators said Thursday that a 2017 wildfire that killed 22 people in Northern California wine country was caused by a private electrical system, not equipment belonging to embattled Pacific Gas & Electric Corp. The state firefighting agency concluded that the blaze started next to a residence. It did not find any violations of state law. “I eliminated all other causes for the Tubbs Fire, with the exception of an electrical caused fire originating from an unknown event affecting privately owned conductor or equipment,” CalFire Battalion Chief John Martinez wrote in his report. Some details about the property, including its owner and address, were blacked out of the report. It said the Napa County property about 3 miles (5 kilometers) north of Calistoga was built in 1946 on about 10.5 acres (4.2 hectares) with a wine cellar, pool and several outbuildings. PG&E said in a Jan. 2 court filing that it believed a handyman performing unlicensed

electrical work started the wine country fire. In that filing, it identified the owner of the Napa County compound as Ann Zink. The utility said it provided electricity to Zink’s property by a line that connected to a service riser but that Zink had a private system to carry power to other buildings as well as equipment such as a water pump and water storage tank. PG&E said it had no responsibility to maintain or inspect the private system. Zink, 91, told The San Francisco Chronicle in 2017 that
Around the World
her house was unoccupied at the time of the fire and she was at her other home in Riverside County when the blaze began. The Tubbs Fire was one of more than 170 that torched the state in October 2017. It destroyed more than 5,600 structures over more than 57 square miles (148 sq. kilometers) in Sonoma and Napa counties. PG&E previously said it plans to file for bankruptcy protection next week, citing billions of dollars in potential damages from lawsuits linking its equipment to other deadly blazes for
which it has been determined to be at fault. The company said in a statement that despite Thursday’s finding, PG&E “still faces extensive litigation, significant potential liabilities and a deteriorating financial situation.” Gov. Gavin Newson said it’s up to PG&E to decide whether to move ahead with a planned bankruptcy given that more than half of its expected damages stemmed from the 2017 Tubbs Fire. He said his goal is not to rescue PG&E but to make sure victims are made whole, that the state has “safe, reliable and affordable service” and that rate payers “are not paying the price of the neglect” that has been established in past wildfires. Newsom also said he doubts the report will end litigation related to the wildfire. Michael Kelly, an attorney for victims of the fire, said the findings wouldn’t have much effect on the lawsuits he has filed. “We’re going to stick by our guns,” Kelly said, adding that there are still questions about why PG&E didn’t cut power to the area despite a high fire danger. He said there is also evidence that contradicts the findings of state fire investigators.
KINSHASA, Congo — Opposition leader Felix Tshisekedi was sworn in as Congo’s president Thursday, marking the country’s first peaceful transfer of power since independence from Belgium nearly 60 years ago, and immediately announced plans for the release of all political prisoners. The 55-year-old Tshisekedi succeeds Joseph Kabila, the strongman who governed the largely impoverished and corruption-riddled Central African country for 18 years before stepping down under pressure. “We are committed to building a modern, peaceful, democratic and caring state for every citizen,” the new president said, “a state that will guarantee the happiness of all.” He called on the troubled nation to engage in a new battle, one for “the well-bring for each citizen of this beautiful country.” Kabila watched from behind mirrored sunglasses as the extraordinary scene of an opposition figure becoming president unfolded. When Kabila left the dais, some in the crowd booed. Tshisekedi also called for national reconciliation in the wake of the disputed Dec. 30 election. The balloting was marked by allegations of large-scale fraud and suspicions of a backroom deal by Kabila to install Tshisekedi over another opposition candidate who according to leaked electoral data was the real winner. But many Congolese appeared satisfied just to see Kabila go and relieved to witness a peaceful change of power in a politically repressive country with a history of violent coups. Supporters of Tshisekedi stormed the People’s Palace, which houses the legislature, for a glimpse of the inauguration.
Amnesty says Egypt detained 113 in 2018 for their views CAIRO — Amnesty International said Thursday that Egyptian authorities detained at least 113 people in 2018 for peacefully expressing their views, saying the country has become more dangerous than at any time in recent history for anyone openly criticizing the government. In a statement, the London-based rights group said those who dared criticize the government in 2018 were sent to prison, often held in solitary confinement or subjected to forced disappearances. “Today, it is more dangerous to openly criticize the government in Egypt than at any other time in the country’s recent history,” said Najia Bounaim, Amnesty’s North Africa Campaigns Director. “Those living under President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi have experienced an unprecedented assault that has seen those who peacefully express their views treated as criminals,” Bounaim said. Those detained, it added, faced charges that included “membership of terrorist groups” — Egyptian government parlance for the outlawed Muslim Brotherhood group — and “disseminating false news” in “unfair” trials. — The Associated Press

Pope in Panama blasts corruption, walls, prays for Venezuela

PANAMA CITY — Pope Francis insisted Thursday that public officials live simply, honestly and transparently as he opened a visit to a Central America that has been rife with corruption scandals and is now coping with political upheaval in nearby Venezuela.
Francis didn’t mention the Venezuela crisis during his first remarks in Panama after a meeting with President Juan Carlos Varela at the presidential palace. But his spokesman said he was following the situation closely, was praying for the Venezuelan people and supported “all efforts that help save the population from further suffering.” Francis stuck to his script in Panama, celebrating the country’s place as bridge between oceans and cultures and holding up the region’s newest saint, slain Salvadoran Archbishop Oscar Romero, as a model for a humble church that accompanies the poor. He welcomed tens of thousands of young people to World Youth Day, the Catholic Church’s big youth rally, and urged them to be builders of bridges of encounter, not “builders of walls that sow fear and look to divide and box people in,” a clear reference to the proposed U.S.-Mexico border wall. But he warned that those same young people are increasingly demanding that public officials live lives that are coherent with the jobs entrusted to them, and build a “culture of greater transparency” between the public and private sectors. “They call upon them to live in simplicity and transparency, with a clear sense of responsibility for others and for our world,” Francis told Varela and other Panamanian leaders. “To lead a life that demonstrates that public service is a synonym of honesty and justice, and opposed to all forms
of corruption.” Transparency International estimates that as much as 1 percent of Panama’s GDP, approximately US$600 million, may have been lost to various corruption schemes during the presidency of Ricardo Martinelli, who governed Panama from 2009 to 2014. Martinelli was extradited to Panama last year from the United States to face political espionage and embezzlement charges. In addition, two of Martinelli’s sons have been detained in the U.S. and are being sought on corruption charges in Panama. They are suspected of receiving more than $50 million in “undue payments” from Brazilian construction giant Odebrecht, which is at the center of one of the largest graft scandals in history. Odebrecht has acknowledged paying nearly $800 million dollars in bribes in a dozen Latin American nations in return for favors and works contracts. That includes at least $59 million in Panama, although authorities say the real figure is likely much higher. In addition to the Martinelli sons, the scandal has already implicated former government ministers under the elder Martinelli as well as people linked to the party of the current president, Varela. The Martinelli family has denied involvement by the sons in the bribery scandal and alleges persecution by political foes. The former president also
denies any wrongdoing and says he is being targeted politically. Francis’ visit is taking place against the backdrop of both the turmoil in Venezuela and the ongoing migrant standoff in the United States, where the government is partly shut down over President Donald Trump’s demand for congressional funding for a wall at the U.S.-Mexico border. History’s first Latin American pope, who was born to Italian immigrants to Argentina, has made the plight of migrants a cornerstone of his papacy and denounced how fear of migrants was driving populist and nationalist sentiment across the globe. Speaking Thursday to Central American bishops, Francis urged church institutions from dioceses down to individual parishes to welcome and integrate migrants and serve as models for the rest of society to overcome fears of foreigners. And he urged them to look to Romero as inspiration for being a humble church that listens to the poor and accompanies them as a father accompanies his children. Francis said that young people today have few opportunities and face dangerous, difficult challenges, citing “domestic violence, the killing of women - our continent is experiencing a plague in this regard - armed gangs and criminals, drug trafficking, the sexual exploitation of minors and young people, and so on.” Francis has frequently urged young

people to resist easy temptations of drug dealing and gang membership, and to especially avoid the lure of corruption. It is a message that will likely resonate with the youth of the region. Transparency International’s latest index of perceived corruption ranks the entire Central American region poorly, with the exception of Costa Rica. Panama ranked 96 out of 180 countries surveyed globally in 2017, better than many in the region including Nicaragua, El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala, but still far from clean. In Guatemala, President Jimmy Morales has hamstrung the U.N.sponsored International Commission against Impunity in Guatemala, which has pushed many high-profile investigations that have swept up politicians, public officials and businesspeople during its decade-plus of existence. In El Salvador, former President Mauricio Funes is wanted for alleged corruption and is currently a fugitive granted asylum with several family members in Nicaragua. Another expresident, Tony Saca, was sentenced in September to 10 years for embezzlement and money laundering. In Honduras, former President Porfirio Lobo’s wife has been suspected of diverting $700,000 in public funds and his brother accused of pocketing about $300,000 in government money. His son Fabio was sentenced in the United States to 24 years for drug trafficking.

Are you silly? T
here’s a whole book of vocabulary in the world of downhill skiing. There are hundreds of ways to describe snow, while I usually just refer to it as “pretty” or “not pretty.” It turns out that skis can be called planks, snowboards a plank and trips down the mountains are laps or runs, depending on which friends are recapping their days. Actually, while writing this I’m finding some insecurity lifting inside of me — am I using that right, planks? Fresh powder? Is it OK if I just call it snow? The vocabulary book is a metaphor, although I’m sure there’s a website or two that would help jump over the language barrier. Oh! There is some French involved too, but outside the realm of my college courses. Turns out I never really flexed my ability to read Albert Camus in his original language. I should’ve been studying skiing terms instead, like “piste.” I was familiar with the term “apres-ski” though, because it has been, and even as I delve deeper into the world of skiing will be, my favorite part. Then there is the catalog of gear and maps full of routes and places to ski that I can’t even begin to dig into here. After three days of skiing at Alyeska, the only thing I remember is Blueberry Hill because it brought me back to the hotel via a long, rolling hill. Anything else was strictly referred to as “the top,” “the bottom” or “no way can I ski down that.” I saw skis of all shapes and sizes, some plankier than others, but their specifications and names went in one ear and out the other, replaced with, “Oh wow, look! This lift just keeps going up and up. How old is that kid? She’s barely a toddler and up this high? And she’s going down that? WHAT!” Oh! And did I mention that if I want to get off Alyeska and away from lift tickets, I have to start worrying about avalanches? (They are known colloquially, like most things in skiing are, as an avy.) Oh gosh. There’s one term that I really latched onto as a beginner downhill skier, though. In the face of a lift that really triggered my fear of heights or a route that triggered my fear of bruises all over my body, I found myself saying, “I’m just gonna send it.” I stumbled onto the term when I friend said it offhandedly, and it just stuck. The term was popularized by a viral YouTube snowmachiner who asks, “Are you silly? I’m still going to send it.” And that’s what I sarcastically said repeatedly as I found myself right in the middle of trying to get better at skiing and being ridiculously afraid of whatever it is I was See BLUE, page A8

Young scorers lead way in NHL By JOSH DUBOW AP Sports Writer
SAN JOSE, Calif. — It is only fitting that Connor McDavid, Auston Matthews and Nathan MacKinnon are serving as captains for this weekend’s NHL All-Star game. The three high-scoring forwards are 23 or younger. They are part of a youth movement that is taking over the NHL and will be on center stage when the league’s best players gather at the Shark Tank for their annual midseason celebration. “It’s a young man’s league,” said Chicago forward Patrick Kane, now an elder statesman at age 30. “These guys come in and maybe in the past your prime was 26, 27 or 28. Now your prime is maybe 22, 23 or 24. It’s definitely become a younger man’s game. A lot of teams these days are expecting their young draft picks and younger kids to come in and help the team right away. You’ll see more of these young guys get a chance.” Scoring is on pace for its highest mark in more than two decades heading into the All-Star break, thanks in large part to some skilled youngsters who will be on display this weekend like the three AllStar captains along with the league’s leading scorer, 25-year-old Nikita Kucherov of Tampa Bay, and 25-year-old Calgary star Johnny Gaudreau. None of the league’s top six scorers heading into
the break has turned 26 and there are more All-Star skaters this weekend 22 and younger (11) than in their 30s (8). In all, 58 percent of the goals in the NHL this season have been scored by players 26 or younger. “That’s just the way the game is trending,” Matthews said. “It seems a lot younger now, a lot faster, more speed and more skill. A lot of younger guys are coming in and making an impact immediately. That wasn’t the case in years past but it’s kind of changing now. It’s pretty fun to see.” The league had long been looking to increase scoring by reducing the size of goalie pads, among other rules changes, and it seems to have finally materialized. Teams head into the break averaging 3.03 goals per game, which is on pace for the highestscoring season since the 3.14 in 1995-96, when Mario Lemieux and Wayne Gretzky were still among the league’s biggest stars. There’s still a long way to go to get back to the level of the go-go 1980s, which featured a singleseason team average of 4.01 goals per game in 1981-82 — the highest in the league since the end of World War II. But there has been an 18 percent increase in scoring since the post-expansion low of 2.57 goals per game for teams in 2003-04, before a lockout canceled the following season and led to rule changes. “The game’s being run by the twentysomethings
now,” Tampa Bay coach Jon Cooper said. “Players have a positive arrogance when they come into the league that they can do anything and they try it. That’s what makes them so good. They’re not sitting there saying this might not be the right thing to do in this situation. Players are trying it and that’s why you’re seeing what you’re seeing with the skill level in this game. These players are so good.” There was a big jump in the first year back in 2005-06 thanks to a crackdown on stick work and obstruction that led to more power plays. But scoring fell gradually in the ensuing years and was down to 2.67 three years ago before starting to rise again. An influx of young stars like McDavid, Matthews, Mathew Barzal of the New York Islanders and Vancouver rookie Elias Pettersson helped contribute to the 13 percent jump in scoring in a threeyear span. “I came in the league out of college and I was 22 or 23 and I was the youngest guy on the team,” Columbus 29-year-old forward Cam Atkinson said. “Now it’s unheard of if you don’t have two or three guys under the age of 20. It’s great for the sport. It’s a fast game and that’s what the fans want.” The surge hasn’t been limited to the youngsters. Washington’s Alex Ovechkin leads the NHL in goals with 37 at age 33 and was slated to be the fourth captain this weekend before deciding to stay home and rest.

From last to first. That’s been the defining theme for the rising Soldotna Stars hockey team in 2018, and they added another chapter to this season Thursday night at the Soldotna Regional Sports Complex. The Stars clinched the top seed out of the Railbelt Conference with a 3-2 overtime win over the Palmer Moose. Galen Brantley III tallied the game-winner with 4:21 left in the eight-minute extra period on the power play. Soldotna lifted its conference record to 8-1, meaning even a loss Friday night to Houston would leave them tied with Juneau (8-2), which has already completed its regular season. SoHi holds the tiebreaker over the Crimson Bears due to two
wins over Juneau. A win tonight over Houston would give SoHi the Railbelt title outright. Palmer (2-5) must rely on grabbing one of two at-large bids to state for the eightteam tournament, and is likely to do so. Palmer plays Kenai (1-7) tonight at 7 p.m. at the Kenai Multi-Purpose Facility. The loss for Palmer was big for Homer (5-3), as the Mariners got the help they needed to clinch the third and final spot out of the conference. SoHi head coach Indy Walton said the turnaround has been great for the team, which finished last in the former North Star Conference in 2017 with a 1-9 conference record, nearly opposite of SoHi’s current mark. “I really wanted us to win See PUCK, page A8
Rahm shoots 62, Woods fires a 70 By DOUG FERGUSON AP Golf Writer
SAN DIEGO — All the attention was on Tiger Woods and his 2019 debut. Just like the last two occasions, Jon Rahm delivered the best performance. In ideal conditions even by San Diego standards, Rahm opened with an eagle and kept going lower until he had a 10-under 62 on the North course at Torrey Pines, giving him a one-shot lead over Justin Rose after the opening round Thursday at the Farmers Insurance Open. “You play the South on the first day, you’re trying to survive,” Rahm said. “On the Tigers Woods hits out of a bunker on the sixth hole during the North, you’ve got to start under first round of the Farmer’s Insurance Open golf tournament on par to keep up. I kept the pedal the South Course at Torrey Pines Golf Course on Thursday in down.” San Diego, Calif. (AP Photo/Gregory Bull) Woods was on the tougher
South course, where he won his last major, the 2008 U.S. Open. He made three birdies on the back nine for a 70, which he thought could have been lower but found acceptable given that it was his first competition in nearly two months. “I probably could have shot something around 68 or 67 today pretty easily,” Woods said. “I hit a lot of good putts that were around the hole that just didn’t quite fall in. Overall, shooting a couple under par on the South course is not so bad, but now I’m forced to have to shoot a low one tomorrow just like most of the field did over there today.” Rahm’s highlight last year was beating Woods on Sunday in the Ryder Cup during a European victory in France. He ended the year by closing with a 65 to win Woods’ holiday
tournament in the Bahamas. They were on opposite ends of Torrey Pines, and the Spaniard made the most of being on the North course, which is 440 yards shorter and played just over two shots easier on average. He made two eagles on the back nine to go out in 29, and his only regret was missing a 7-foot birdie putt on his final hole that would have tied the North course record set 12 years ago by Brandt Snedeker, who was in his group. “I don’t think you ever tee up on any course at Torrey Pines expecting to shoot 10-under par,” said Rahm, who won at Torrey two years ago for his first PGA Tour title. Rose played in the group behind him, also opened with an eagle and did his best to keep up. He played bogey-free for a
63 and finished with a birdie. He played in the same group as Jordan Spieth (65) and Billy Horschel (66), a group that combined for 21 birdies and two eagles, a better-ball score of 59. “They told us our combined group was the lowest,” Spieth said. “I’m glad, because if there were lower than that, it means everybody went low.” Charles Howell III and Brandon Nagy had the lowest scores on the South at 66, and Nagy did that with three bogeys on his card. “You don’t see many days when you don’t have any wind,” Howell said. “The scores were a lot lower than I thought they would be.” Ninety-seven players in the 156-man field broke par. Even more unusual was that no one shot worse than 77.

about to do. Urban Dictionary says “sending it” means saying yes to something, having confidence in what you’re about to do and “just send it.” I think in a more spiritual environment, some would say that “send it” is my skiing mantra. I’m going to say it here, because I think that’s
hilarious. I’m still learning a lot of things about downhill skiing, but I’ve stomped down some of those initial insecurities and fears. Instead of being intimidated by a 4-year-old speeding past me down a slope, I’ve continued to learn something new and exciting because it’d be silly not to. We’re all just trying to send it, anyway.

James, Giannis named captains By TIM REYNOLDS AP Basketball Writer
LeBron James of the Los Angeles Lakers is a captain and an All-Star starter — again. Giannis Antetokounmpo of the Milwaukee Bucks will choose his own teammates as the other captain. And Hornets guard Kemba Walker is about to make his first All-Star start, on his home floor in Charlotte. While there were perhaps mild surprises, there were no real stunners during Thursday night’s unveiling of the starters for the NBA All-Star Game that will be played in Charlotte on Feb. 17. James and Antetokounmpo are captains, their perk for being the leading votegetters out of the Western and Eastern Conferences, and nine of this year’s 10 starters have been chosen to begin All-Star Games in the past. Walker is the lone exception,
and broke into a smile when realizing he was a pick. “It’s kind of surreal,” Walker told TNT during the broadcast to announce the starters. The starting guards from the East are Boston’s Kyrie Irving and Walker. The East frontcourt picks were Antetokounmpo, Toronto’s Kawhi Leonard and Philadelphia’s Joel Embiid. From the West, Stephen Curry and reigning NBA MVP James Harden were the picks at guard, with James, Golden State’s Kevin Durant and Oklahoma City’s Paul George getting the frontcourt spots. “I had a lot of doubt coming into my early career about just even being an elite point guard in this league,” Walker said. “So for me to become an AllStar for two straight years and then now to become an All-Star starter most definitely proves the doubters wrong. So this is an unbelievable moment in my career.”

this game,” Walton said. “I would’ve dressed myself if I had to.” Brantley III scored SoHi’s final two goals of the night — his first gave SoHi a 2-1 lead late in the second period on a power play, just 45 seconds after Palmer tied it on a Zach Nelius goal. On the overtime winner, Brantley III said one of his teammates (either Wyatt Medcoff or Braxton Urban) fed him the puck along the boards and Brantley simply tried to put it on net. “I was trying to put it off the far pad (of Palmer goalie Tiernan O’Rourke), trying to get a rebound,” Brantley said. “The goalie misplayed it and I got it through the five-hole.” The shot took a rebound
off the pads of O’Rourke and Brantley swooped in to throw it back, this time under O’Rourke’s legs. The play was preceded by a Palmer penalty with 5:11 to go in overtime, a cross-checking charge to Alex Nelius. It was the eighth penalty of the night by the Moose, something that Walton and Brantley both pointed to as a game changer. “Penalties kill you,” Brantley said. “That’s what hurt us last year, and we’ve been working on it.” The second period was particularly brutal for Palmer, which committed six penalties, including a 10-minute major. Walton added that SoHi’s puck control helped the team dictate the pace and tempo. “The team that controls time of possession usually will win the game,” Walton said. “You can even be outshot, but if you control the puck, you can win.”
Walton also credited O’Rourke on standing tall against the Stars, who pelted him with 61 shots on the night, including 26 in the second period. O’Rourke ended with 58 saves, while SoHi goalie Corbin Wirz finished with 34 saves. Soldotna took the first lead of the night late in the first period on a Gavin Haakenson goal. Haakenson scooped up a loose puck near the Palmer crease to break through first. The Moose answered back with 2:36 left in the second period soon after killing a SoHi power play. Noah Stoll knocked in the puck on a frenetic play at the net to tie it up. Brantley’s go-ahead goal came with 1:51 left in the second after going on the power play. Palmer tied it again with 11 minutes left in the game as Nelius scored on a rebound off Wirz, who had stopped a
shot from Luke Theisen. Homer 10, Houston 1 The host Homer hockey team notched a 10-1 victory over Houston on Thursday in Railbelt Conference hockey. Connor Roderick and Hunter Warren combined to make 22 saves on 23 shots for Homer. Thursday Stars 3, Moose 2, OT Palmer 0 1 1 0 —2 Soldotna 1 1 0 1 —3 First period — 1.

Warriors take 9th straight By The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Stephen Curry scored 38 points, local product Kevin Durant had 21 and the Golden State Warriors hammered the ball inside to beat the Washington Wizards 126-118 Thursday night for their season-high ninth consecutive victory. The two-time defending NBA champions put up 70 points in the paint after shooting 1 of 6 from the outside in the first quarter. Curry was at the forefront of Golden State’s drive-the-paint strategy as he made just two of his eight 3-point attempts and was 12 of 16 inside the arc. Durant, from nearby Suitland, Maryland, was 9 of 18 from the floor. Center DeMarcus Cousins had 17 points in 24 minutes in his third game with the Warriors since missing almost a full year with a ruptured left Achilles tendon. Cousins was a matchup

Westbrook finished with 23 points, 17 rebounds and 16 assists for the 119th triple-double of his career. The Thunder improved to 10-5 this season when he gets one. Paul George had 23 points and 11 rebounds, and Steven Adams added 20 points and 13 rebounds for Oklahoma City, which won its fourth straight.
20 apiece and the Portland Trail Blazers pulled away in the second half to hand the short-handed Suns their sixth straight loss. The Trail Blazers beat Phoenix for the ninth straight time. Portland has won four of five and eight of 11 overall. Devin Booker scored 27 points for the Suns, but only nine after the first quarter. Kelly Oubre Jr. added 18 on 6-of-18 shooting. Dragan Bender, forced into the starting center role due to injuries, had 17.
TIMBERWOLVES 120, LAKERS 105
LOS ANGELES — Karl-Anthony Towns had 27 points and 12 rebounds to help Minnesota beat Los Angeles. Andrew Wiggins added 23 points and Jerryd Bayless scored 16 off the bench for the Timberwolves, who have won three straight.

Shy guy overcoming addiction flounders in the dating pool more likely the fact that you are afraid to interact with them. Start by talking to some of the women in your support meetings. They already know something about you and the strides you have made in overcoming your addiction. And involve yourself in activities you enjoy that are more so- Abigail Van Buren cial. It may help you to develop your “people skills” so you will feel less anxious in other social situations. But do not allow yourself to use the fact that you are lonely to destroy your sobriety because it would be a poor excuse. DEAR ABBY: I hate eating with my spouse because his table manners are awful. He sits with both elbows on the table, leans close to the dinner plate and uses his fingers to push his food onto his fork. He mashes everything on his plate together before he starts eating, smashes crackers in his soup, scrapes his spoon on the bottom of the bowl and slurps his liquids. He also licks his fingers.
He thinks he can modify these behaviors when he’s with others, but he lapses into them even when he’s with friends in a restaurant. Please help me. How can I get him to change? Must I tolerate it? I have tried constructive suggestions and gentle prodding with no success. Please respond in your column because he reads it daily -- while he eats. -- DISTRAUGHT SPOUSE IN COLUMBUS, OHIO DEAR DISTRAUGHT SPOUSE: Your husband must have many wonderful qualities if you married him knowing this is the way he consumes his food. Among them is an awareness that he should modify his eating habits when he’s with friends. Let him know that YOU are his BEST friend and you would like him to practice his “party manners” when he eats with you. If he’s reluctant, point out that he “lapses” when he’s socializing with others, and it isn’t pretty. It may motivate him to try harder.

Hints from Heloise
HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Friday, Jan. 25, 2019: This year, unusual opportunities land on your plate. Tap into your instincts regarding whether you need to jump on any risks. Always be aware of the ramifications. If single, continue dating. You will know when you meet the right person. If attached, you will enjoy all the banter and fun that seems to spontaneously link you with your significant other. Be willing to make an adjustment around a special person, but don’t add a major new responsibility to your life. The give-andtake needs to be about equal. LIBRA is easygoing. You can relax with them. The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 20-April 19) HHHH Do not lose your energy or focus. You make headway with ease and might clear out what has been a tedious issue. In fact, there is a strong possibility you will succeed in making a serious impression. Even in your wildest dreams, you could not imagine that kind of success. Tonight: Enjoy yourself. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH Your instinct to play it light and easy could save you from an intense confrontation. Remain sensitive and caring with a loved one who might be causing you to jump through hoops to achieve your long-term goals. Tonight: TGIF, so let the fun begin. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH You express yourself in an imaginative, unique manner. At the same time, you entice a loved one to come closer. You have so much energy that others cannot stay away, yet they also can’t catch up with you. They want to join in the fun. Tonight:
Rubes
Christen the weekend in style. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH You could feel pressured by what is happening around you. You might feel out of sorts because a certain loved one isn’t sharing more of him- or herself. You need to accept this person’s mood without taking it personally. The issue probably isn’t you! Tonight: Dancing the weekend in. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Your energy draws others toward you. You seem to have only good words for the moment and the people around you. Others sense your positive attitude and seek you out. You could easily warm the cockles of many hearts. Try to be discriminating and open in order to avoid hurting someone. Tonight: Wherever you are, the party breaks out. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH In the morning, you seem to feel more relaxed than you have for a while. Pressure could build to a high level if you are not careful, though. Curb wild spending as an outlet. You might be tempted, so deal with your stress effectively. Do fit in some exercise without buying a new membership to a different gym! Tonight: Indulge a little. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH You feel unusually attractive and dynamic, and others respond to you accordingly. Do not sit on negative feelings or you could experience a backfire. You might even lose your temper out of the blue. Remember to seek out both sides of a disagreement. Stay open, and everything will work out. Tonight: Make the most of the night. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH Know when to take a back seat. You could feel a lot better if you do not get involved in others’ issues.

You might not be welcomed in this arena anyway. Many of your thoughts are valid, but they might be best kept to yourself for now. Others do not want to share their problems at present. Tonight: Play it low-key. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Spontaneity comes into play. Friends seem to invigorate you and encourage you to be more adventurous. Be aware that a negative comment could put a pin in your balloon. Detach rather than react. Tonight: Let the fun begin. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH You could be out of sorts as you get past a problem that has been holding you back. Once you open up and discuss what is ailing you, the issue evaporates. Stay more in contact with your basic needs. In general, your choices for yourself are great. Tonight: In the spotlight. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Greet good news with a smile and a sense of excitement. You do not know what could be just around the corner, heading in your direction. You find a friendship unusually supportive when you hit a difficult situation. Tonight: You have reason to celebrate. Put on your dancing shoes. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Success stems from your willingness to have a one-on-one conversation with a key person in your life. Do not push the other party. Let this person discover his or her own rhythm. A friend expresses thoughts, and you might not like what you hear. Work on being diplomatic. Tonight: Dinner out at a favorite restaurant.

COCKROACH KILLER Dear Heloise: I read your article in the Orange County (Calif.) Register about cockroaches, and you don’t need all those ingredients. All you really need is the boric acid powder. This alone will kill cockroaches. -- Margaret A., Santa Ana, Calif. Margaret, you’re right. Boric acid is deadly for roaches, but it’s fairly safe when used correctly. Here are a few don’ts: * Don’t get boric acid in your nose, eyes or mouth. * Don’t let boric acid powder touch your kitchen counters or places where you prepare food. * Use only a thin layer of powder. * Don’t leave piles of boric acid. Be sure to apply in the right places: secluded nooks, under sinks, behind the toilet, under/behind stoves and refrigerators, etc. -- Heloise NEITHER LENDER NOR BORROWER BE? Dear Heloise: I agree with Gary in Fort Wayne, Ind., about lending things to anyone. One neighbor I have does not know the word “return.” I had to go ask for my cookie sheets back. When I had to go get my folding chairs, she had them in a closet. Now I have a list on my refrigerator of “Borrowed,” and I even put the date on it. That helps me. -- A Reader in North Dakota. Reader in North Dakota: That’s an excellent idea. This way, there is no misunderstanding or lost items. -- Heloise WARMING UP THE ENGINE Dear Heloise: Back in the day when cars used carburetors, it might have made sense to warm up the engine on a cold, snowy day, but not with the fuel-injected engines we now use. Just start the car and drive after you’ve cleared each window for better visibility. -- John N., Chickasha, Okla.

DEAR ABBY: I’m a 28-year-old male who has never had a girlfriend or a meaningful relationship. I’m welleducated, nice-looking and have a good sense of humor. But I get shy and nervous around the opposite sex. Compounding that, I seem to have a serious “resting face.” People assume I’m frustrated or angry/grumpy when it’s just my normal expression. I’m worried it makes me unapproachable or appear to be unpleasant. I have overcome addiction, attend daily support meetings and have almost a year of sobriety. I avoid bar/ club scenes where a lot of people my age socialize. I’m beginning to feel very alone and empty. I asked out a temp at my job, but she had a boyfriend and offered to set me up with a friend of hers. I declined because I was embarrassed. My friends tell me it’s a game of numbers, but it hurts being rejected all the time. I see beautiful, nice women with men who treat them badly, and I obsess over what’s wrong with me. My experience with women is limited. I’m not looking for a commitment, just some friends to share good times and laughter with. I’d love to have someone to spend time with before loneliness awakens previous bad habits. -- ABOUT TO GIVE UP IN CONNECTICUT DEAR ABOUT TO GIVE UP: I doubt your “resting face” is what keeps women away. It’s
