Salmon season opens with limit catches for just about everyone
A long-burning fuse reached salmon dynamite Sunday morning. The opening of the sport salmon season detonated with wide-open fishing mayhem and limit catches out of the Golden Gate. New state and federal regulations had delayed the opener for months. What took so long to arrive was resolved in minutes. On the Lovely Martha out of Fisherman’s Wharf, the first lines went in the ocean at 8:43 a.m. Within a minute, there were six hook-ups at once and it wouldn’t stop, a wild scene. By 10 a.m., the 25 anglers aboard had caught 50 salmon — that is, two-fish limits for all. The biggest salmon was a 24-pounder by Evan Mulcahy of San Francisco. “This is one hell of a way to start the season,” said Capt. Mike Rescino of the Lovely Martha. “A great way to start.” Capt. Joey Gallia of the New Easy Rider out of Berkeley and Capt. Sean Hodges of the Hog Heaven out of Sausalito were alongside Lovely Martha to first find the salmon. The location was outside … [Read more...] about Salmon season opens with limit catches for just about everyone
Trump associate met with Russian
MIAMI -- In late May 2016, Roger Stone -- the longtime confidant of Donald Trump -- slipped into his Jaguar and headed out to meet a man with a Make America Great Again hat and a viscous Russian accent. The man, who called himself Henry Greenberg, offered damaging information about Hillary Clinton, Trump's presumptive Democratic opponent in that fall's presidential election, according to Stone -- who spoke about the previously unreported incident in interviews with The Washington Post. Greenberg, who did not reveal the information he claimed to possess, wanted Trump to pay $2 million for the political dirt, Stone said. "You don't understand Donald Trump," Stone recalled saying before rejecting the offer at a restaurant in Sunny Isles, Fla. "He doesn't pay for anything." Later, Stone got a text message from Michael Caputo, a Trump campaign communications official who'd arranged the meeting after Greenberg had approached Caputo's Russian-immigrant business partner. "How crazy is the … [Read more...] about Trump associate met with Russian

For Missouri prisoners working with broken dogs, healing goes both ways
Jackie Rehwald Springfield News-Leader Published 4:42 p.m. UTC Jun 18, 2018 There's a different kind of rehabilitation happening inside Missouri's prisons — a program that offers even the most unruly repeat offenders another chance. The Puppies for Parole program takes hard-to-adopt dogs from rescue groups and pairs them with selected prisoners to be trained and socialized. The dogs often come from rough starts and abusive situations — much like the offenders who train the animals. Since the program began in 2010, more than 5,000 dogs have graduated from the program and been adopted into homes. A white and brown terrier mix named Abby was among them. Born deaf and blind in one eye, Abby had been adopted and returned to an animal rescue group twice before she was sentenced to do time at the prison in Licking. "She was too energetic, too high strung, bouncing off the walls," said Joel Hopkins, Abby's inmate trainer. "All she needed … [Read more...] about For Missouri prisoners working with broken dogs, healing goes both ways
