Also included, are “updates on implementation of marijuana establishment licensing, ongoing and proposed regulations projects, and other matters that may come before it,” the notice said.

By Kyle Hopkins: How Alaska non-profits spend your donations from ‘Giving Tuesday’
You can search for recent 990s by using free online watchdog services such as Guidestar or Charity Navigator. Both services require registration but there is no fee for research.

To learn more about a given non-profit:
1. Sign up for the service using your email address.
2. Look for an immediate email asking you to verify your registration.
3. Go the Guidestar or Charity Navigator home page and enter the name of the charity in the search bar.
4. Click “show forms 990” (Guidestar) or “click to view” (Charity Navigator) to see the charity’s most recent tax filings.
5. Go to page 10 of the 990 form and look at Row 25, “Total Functional Expenses.” This row shows you how the non-profit is spending its money. You can divide column B (program expenses) by column A (total expenses) and multiply by 100 to see the percentage that the charity is spending directly on services and programs.

It’s not a fast or efficient process, but it provides a level of detail on local non-profits that is not readily available through the Pick Click Give or state consumer protection division web sites.

By JACOB MANN Frontiersman.com: Midshipman returns home to speak to Naval Academy hopefuls
On one of his stops, he met with Laelle Robinson, a junior at Wasilla High School.

“She’s in a good spot right now, but there’s always room to improve,” Farmland said.

Robinson comes from a military family. She also used to be home schooled. Farmland talked with her for a while to go over what it takes to qualify. He also gave her advice on how to become more competitive and how to stand out more in her application process. He noted that she was in extracurricular activities, which is a good notch in her belt. Robinson is currently in Wasilla High School’s Junior Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (JROTC) program. Although it isn’t required to be in JROTC prior to joining the academy, it does help introduce young people into the military way of life and will certainly be useful when they decide to enroll.

There is a clear indication that the individual has a deterioration of intellectual faculties, a physical impairment or medical condition that makes them unable to meet their own needs or to seek help without assistance.

Barlow says because Keith lived alone, had a driver’s license and control of his own finances, the department doesn’t categorize him as an individual who meets Silver Alert criteria.

The Aumavae family says they disagree and believes his diagnosis of multiple personality disorder and schizophrenia should count.
