“To use the 30 years of experience that I have and the hard lessons, the bumps and the bruises, to maybe set them up for a bit more success,” Randall said.

His students say they appreciate his genuine sense of care, asking them to share positive life experiences at the start of each class. They also appreciate the “real world” lessons he offers.

“A few weeks ago, we learned everything there is to know about credit,” exclaimed one sophomore. “Now I feel like I’m not going to fail with my first credit card!”

WATCH: Active shooter training at Palmer church Alaskans participate in a church security and intruder awareness training through Point Blank Firearms and Self Defense.
The training is called “church security and intruder awareness training,” and is the brainchild of a lifelong Alaskan and former police officer named Donna Anthony. Anthony is the CEO of Point Blank Firearms and Self Defense Training.

“You can sit there and show a video for an active shooter — like most companies do for 30 minutes — but that’s not enough training,” she said. “You’ve got to hand them the tools and the knowledge and the resources of what to do if something happens.”

Anthony says she was injured in the line of duty while working as a police officer, and she decided to apply her knowledge to help others learn how to defend themselves.

Jill Black participated in Saturday’s training. She is involved with a local group called Well-Armed Women, and she spends time training with firearms at shooting ranges – in large part to protect her family in case they’re involved in an active shooter situation.

The Contaminated Sites Program is making improvements to the Contaminated Sites Illegal Drug Manufacturing Sites web page (http://dec.alaska.gov/spar/csp/meth-lab/).

In order to make the information useful to the public we’d like some input from you.

Currently included on this webpage is a list of vendors that provide sampling and decontamination equipment for illegal methamphetamine manufacturing sites found at http://dec.alaska.gov/spar/csp/meth-lab/equipment-vendors.

In the past year, there has been an increase in calls from the public requesting information on contractors and/or consultants who can perform sampling and decontamination work after methamphetamine use inside a structure. To address this need, we are offering to list those businesses which specialize in sampling or decontamination services, in addition to the vendors that provide sampling and decontamination equipment.

If you would like your business to be listed as providing sampling or decontamination services, please contact Mossy Mead, DEC Environmental Program Technician, at mossy.mead@alaska.gov or 907-465-5390.

“Preliminary investigation has revealed the driver of the passenger car pulled in front of a northbound dump truck,” troopers wrote in the dispatch Tuesday.

Troopers spokesman Tim DeSpain said Wednesday morning that injuries to both drivers were still being evaluated.

He said the driver of the dump truck attempted to stop and collided with the car, causing both vehicles to spin. The dump truck rolled over on its side, DeSpain said, causing the driver to be entrapped and partially ejected. The driver was extricated by emergency personnel and flown by air ambulance to an Anchorage hospital for care.
 
 
 
 
By Derek Minemyer: Anchorage Assembly ordinance could change legal tobacco purchasing age to 21
Young Choi, owner of Blazing Smokes tobacco shops in Anchorage, says implementing Tobacco 21 would not only affect municipal tax revenues — it would reduce his opportunity to hire younger employees.

“I’m going to lose the labor pool of the 19 and 20 year olds,” Choi said. “And that’s kind of sad, because this is a great job for college students.”

But Choi says his biggest concern is how the city of Anchorage would make up the tax revenue lost when 19 and 20 year olds stop purchasing tobacco products.

“If that tax revenue isn’t coming in, where is the city going to get it from?” Choi asked.
