Alaska: Deer, Tasers, Moose Among Issues Addressed at Anchorage Board of Game Meeting - The Alaska Board of Game (BOG) met March 26-30 in Anchorage and adopted numerous proposals. Of particular interest to Alaskans are deer harvest reporting changes, a statewide restriction on the use of tasers for taking of game, and Kenai Peninsula moose hunt restrictions.

The BOG passed a proposal requiring deer hunters to report their hunting efforts by turning in deer harvest report cards or reporting online rather than responding to a deer harvest survey. This decision represents a significant change for Alaska’s deer hunters and unifies the policy for all areas of the state where deer harvest occurs. Online harvest reporting, in particular, can improve deer management by providing ADF&G biologists more complete and accurate harvest data in a timely manner. Similar reporting requirements are already in place for other big game species such as moose, caribou, sheep, and black bear.

The Board of Game also passed a statewide proposal prohibiting the use of Electronic Control Devices (ECD) for the taking of game, except under a permit issued by ADF&G.

There has been recent media attention on ECD use on wildlife, particularly on bears and moose, and subsequent public and wildlife safety concerns relating to this use. The department recognized the lack of authority to regulate the use of ECDs on wildlife and brought the concern to the Board of Game. Restricting the use of ECD technology will reduce the risk of improper or unethical use on wildlife by the public or other agency personnel who are unfamiliar with the potential effects and hazards. This change does not impact other legal uses of these devices by the general public for the purpose of personal protection, or their use by law enforcement in human restraint. - More...

National: Report Shows U.S. Fishery Managers Are On Track to End Overfishing; Adoption of catch limits, accountability measures intended to rebuild fish populations and sustain fisheries – On the 35th anniversary of the passage of the nation’s primary fisheries law, the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (MSA), the Marine Fish Conservation Network issued a report showing that U.S. fishery managers are making significant progress toward the goal of ending overfishing through the adoption of annual catch limits and accountability measures. However, overfishing continued on one out of five fish stocks assessed in 2010, underscoring the need for cautious optimism.

The new report updates a 2007 status review of fisheries, which found many cases of chronic overfishing that continued year after year. Overfishing continues in regions where fishery managers have failed to heed scientific advice and keep fishing within sustainable limits. The result is depleted fish populations, declining catches, lower revenues and hardship for fishermen in some of the nation’s most historic fisheries, such as New England’s cod fishery. Catch limits and accountability measures are intended to prevent that from happening in the future.

“Ending overfishing has been a goal of the Magnuson-Stevens Act since its passage in 1976. With the establishment of a system of catch limits and accountability measures in all U.S. fisheries, fishery managers are poised to finally make good on that promise,” said Bruce Stedman, Executive Director of the Network. - More...

Alaska: DPS Commissioner Extends Studded Tire Deadline – Department of Public Safety Commissioner Joseph Masters issued an emergency order to extend the studded-tire deadline on Alaska roads south of 60 degrees north latitude from April 15 to May 1. The extension makes May 1 the deadline for all Alaska roads.

The order extends the studded-tire season due to poor road conditions and adverse weather patterns that are projected for the near future. - More...

Alaska Science: Bringing the world to a standstill By NED ROZELL - On a fine June day about 100 years ago, in a green mountain valley where the Aleutians stick to the rest of Alaska, the world fell apart.

Bringing the world to a standstill

Earthquakes swayed the alders and spruce. A mountain shook, groaned, and collapsed in on itself, its former summit swallowing rock and dust until it became a giant, steaming pit. About six miles away, hot ash began spewing from the ground in a colossal geyser. During an eruption that lasted three days, one of the most vibrant landscapes in Alaska in 1912 became the gray badlands known as the Valley of 10,000 Smokes.

The great eruption that created the valley came from a smallish clump of rocks called Novarupta. Nowhere near as grand as the nearby Mount Katmai (the mountain that lost its top), Novarupta spewed an ash cloud 20 miles into the atmosphere, belching 100 times more ash than did Mount St. Helens. Though few people know its name, Novarupta was responsible for the largest eruption of the 20th century.

In the wake of the 2010 eruption of the Iceland volcano, Eyjafjallajökull, that paralyzed air travel around Europe and the North Atlantic, Rebecca Anne Welchman took a look at what might happen if Novarupta happened today.

Welchman is a graduate student from Devon, England who became enchanted with volcanoes at the age of 13 when she traveled with her family to Hawaii. There, she saw the ocean quenching molten rock and the hook was set. More recently, she hiked with volcanologist John Eichelberger on his annual summer filed trip to the Valley of 10,000 Smokes. It was like throwing dry pallets on a bonfire. - More...

Race director Fred Jorgensen said: “This is a great way to kick off the running season with a good run followed by pancakes and prizes for just about every participant.”

The Sourdough Stampede mile race was won by 8 year old Morgan Elerding. The youngest milers were 2 year old Liam Woodward and Jack Styles. This annual event is popular with kids and parents.

The 5K race was won by Greg Singstad. Leigh Woodward finished first for women. - More...

photoPOW: Prince of Wales Island Marathon May 28th - Just like those diligent postal carriers, Bill Harney of Ketchikan recently measured the Prince of Wales Island Marathon course, enduring many varied and at times damp samplings of island weather in a single day.   The following day, however, brought sunlight and gentle breezes for the second measurement of the course.

A marathon course is measured and documented so as to maintain or gain its USATF certification.  All certified road race courses must be measured for accuracy.  Running a race on a certified course allows participants to compare their performances at the same distances on other certified courses.    It also brings prestige to the race event and allows the finishing times to be used as qualifying times for other races.

How does one measure a marathon course? Some of the basics are as follows. First a calibration course is carefully laid out and biked numerous times in order to accurately calibrate the bicycle being used to ride the course.  After that has been done, the course must be measured at least two times by the same rider, making multiple recordings of distances, on the same bicycle. The two sets of measurements must be within 0.08% of each other in order for the measurement of the course to be acceptable.  Also the bike is calibrated again after each ride and those figures affect the final measurements.  And temperature is a factor. - More...

letter KIC By Stephanie Rainwater - On my recent trip to Ketchikan, I was pleasantly surprised and delighted with all the new construction projects going on within the Ketchikan Indian Community (KIC).  Capital Project Manager Construction Trades Lead Adjunct, Charles Edwardson and KIC President Norman Arriola gave me a tour of KIC’s Southern Southeast Technical College, which will provide training skills for Southeast Alaska youth, Native and non-native.  Norman Arriola stated, “Tribal Council established a college endowment fund to assist students’ to further their education, this was set up in 2007.” Last year Charles Edwardson used his personal funds to travel to the Legislative Fly to secure state funding for this project, this proved to be a successful endeavor, the state’s contribution was half a million dollars and according to Charles there is more state funding to come.  Hat’s Off to Charles Edwardson! Good Job Housing department and Tribal Council! - More...

letterSEALASKA BILL NOT NECESSARY By Rebecca Knight - There is no credible justification for the Sealaska Lands Bill introduced again this week by Senator Murkowski. If enacted, the end result will be privatization of thousands of acres of cherished public lands including numerous so-called future sites, rights to several tidal, hydro and geothermal resources, use and access issues, and much more. That the corporation has been somehow prevented from making their final selections is the basic myth they perpetuate. - More...

letterHere We Go Again By Myla Poelstra Here we go again... it's payback time for Senator Murkowski. We all knew this was coming when Mr. Byron Mallot and Sen.

Endorsements from across the aisle by these two men who have traditionally supported Democrats foretold of the next round of legislation that was sure to follow. - More...

letter Abortion, Re-Cross Examination: Part Two By Rob Holston - This letter concludes my response to Laura Allen’s letter of March 24 re: abortion. You seem indignant that I cited Wikipedia as a source describing “viability”. Yet you offered no better definition and no source at all. I used this information in my letter, published March 7, 2011, because it seemed in complete agreement with what I had learned in my university classes in biology, anatomy and kinesiology. If you can site a source describing viability as an exact point of development along the continuum from conception to birth then you probably will find numerous pediatricians arguing that they can deliver babies with less weight, less gestation and less development who are viable. Indeed if any point is determined it will always be seen as arbitrary and the question will begged to be asked “Can viability exist 5 seconds before this chosen point? 5 minutes before? 5 hours? 5 weeks? - More...

letter COMMANDMENT By Justin Eckstein - Why is it that Muslims claim Moses was a a prophet and the 10 Commandments given to Moses by OUR HEAVENLY FATHER on Mount Sinai clearly gives OUR HEAVENLY FATHER's Commandment not to kill while they believe in killing those who will not convert, and killing for other various reasons under Sharia Law. - More...

The entire community is grateful for KIC and the economic impact we have region wide. Everyone it seems is aware of our positive activities and how we distribute our resources community wide -- everyone it seems but our own KIC membership, who are one of the most privileged tribes in the United States of America. - More...

Carl Gatto's bill to establish that all judicial actions within the State of Alaska will be conducted under the terms of the State of Alaska Constitution and the U.S. Constitution.

letter Public unions By Rex Barber - Today 04/04/11 on the corner of Tongass and Jefferson I saw something that broke my heart. A group of people supporting public unions. I'm sure every one of those people had the potential to be a great American. But instead they chose to act like a bunch of European cry babies, selling their souls both to government and Government unions. I'm all for a fair day's wage for a fair day's work,nbut what is fair about being forced to join a public union or risk losing your job? - More...

letter Opposition to Sealaska legislation is diverse By Judy Magnuson - Southeast Alaska has been held in a state of turmoil and uncertainty for more than two years. This is when the majority of the public found out about the proposed Sealaska Bill and the far reaching impacts of this legislation. Once the public found out, and the issue was brought up at city council meetings all over Southeast, it created opposition to this legislation that spans across the full spectrum of people, user groups and communities in our area. - More...

letter Sitka's Gift of Kazunoko By Jake Ingman - Japan is the major buyer of herring sac roe, called kazunoko. Kazunoko is traditionally eaten on New Year's Eve, often given as a gift. Kazunoko means many children and symbolizes fertility and family prosperity. In recent years, American fast food places have changed the taste of Japan s youth. Strong herring returns have produced more roe, while the demand in Japan has shrunk. Japan only wants half of this year's quota. Some see this as a reason to shut down this industry, but is that a good idea? - More...
