The Alaska
State Troopers' cold case investigator is opening up an unsolved murder
committed in Kodiak 28 years ago. Investigator Jim Stogsdill of Soldotna
announced the reopening on Friday.
From what
law enforcement could piece together, in the late afternoon of July 14th,
1982, fisherman Thomas Carbine (car-bine) got off the plane from Dillingham,
where he had been fishing for salmon. After dropping off his bags, he made his
way to the Beachcombers Bar on Mission Road, where he spent the night
reportedly buying rounds of drinks. The last time anyone claimed to seem him
alive was about 3:30 the next morning. Ten minutes later his lifeless body was
found on the ground between two parked cars, with his wallet and all his money
missing.
Stogsdill
reviewed the file and thinks the cold case could thaw. He said in an
announcement that somebody might have seen or heard something that could be
helpful in finding the killer. Stogsdill can be reached at the Soldotna
Troopers Post, 262-4453.

Non-profit organizations are an
integral part of life in Kodiak. They provide services that, many times, are
unavailable otherwise. Their use of volunteers helps to keep costs down. And
they know how to squeeze the most out of the least amount of money.
The Kodiak
Island Borough Assembly last week made the borough's annual contribution to a
number of local non-profits. KMXT's Maggie Wall has more.

Kodiak is
not only the most verdant place in Alaska - it's not called the Emerald Isle
for nothing - but it could also be the most green in that other way:
environmental consciousness. With the Terror Lake hydro-electric plant and the
one-year-old, 1.5-megawatt windmills overlooking town, Kodiak Electric
Association produces a huge portion of our electricity through sustainable
means.
In fact,
enough electricity is made from the windmills alone to entirely power at least
one of the fish plants on cannery row. John Whiddon runs Island Seafood, which
has entered into a marketing partnership with KEA promoting sustainability.
