by Ausage Fausia, Samoa News Reporter

The American Samoa Boxing Association (ASBA) boxing team competing in bouts in Samoa last week returned home on Sunday after an outstanding perfor-mance, according to coach and trainer Toleafoa Henry Tavake.

The team included the two Tanoa’s brothers, George Jr and his younger brother Keach, together with Riley Tuala who had his first professional fight during the event.

Both Keach and Tuala lost their fights by points, while George Jr won his fight against Fifita Tapusoa of Samoa in the middleweight division.

During yesterday’s interview with Toleafoa, who is also the president of the ASBA, he said that despite Tuala’s and Tanoa’s losses, both of them showed skill and turned in great performances against their oppo-nents from Samoa.

“Keach was really good during the whole three rounds of his bout, he’s really active and he domi-nated the first two rounds with good, clean shots. As a coach and trainer, I’m confident that Keach is now ready to compete in international tournaments around the Pacific,” Toleafoa said.

Despite the age difference between Keach, 15 years old and his 18-year old opponent from Samoa, Toleafoa said that the Judges should look at the other side and give Keach the win, because he was active throughout the whole fight. George Jr won his fight against Tapusoa, who is one of the best Samoan fighters and represented Samoa in Oceania and Pacific tourna-ments in the past years.

According to Toleafoa, George Jr dominated the whole fight with his speed and power, which gave him the win in a unanimous decision.

“George is moving up with his skills and I believe he will win his fights in the future,” said Toleafoa.

George lost his previous two fights on points during the XV Pacific Games in PNG in July and during the World Championships in Australia last September.

Toleafoa was George’s coach during the Pacific Games, while Mapu Jamias coached him during the World Championships.

While Tuala lost his first professional fight against Bubba Tuigamala of New Zealand, Toleafoa said that Tuala was really active during his first pro-fight last week, and he’s confident that he will doing much better during his next fight in Samoa next month.

“Tuigamala is a really good fighter, he’s smart and strong, but Tuala gave him a hard fight last Saturday in Apia, He (Tuala) almost knocked down Tuigamala during their fight, so I believe that Tuala can do much better when he fights again next month in Samoa,” said Toleafoa.

Bubba, is best known for being the son of legendary All Black Vaaiga “Inga” Tuigamala and runs his own boxing gym in Apia.

In an interview via-email with Bubba, he told Samoa News he opened up a boxing gym in Samoa because there are many young people there who need a place to go to train and exercise.

Tuigamala told Samoa News that his father is helping him open the gym, and he hopes to recruit more young people to get involved in boxing, and be flag carriers for Samoa in the Pacific and around the world.

The ASBA is looking at sending a team of 6 local boxers to compete in Samoa on January 23, 2016, during Joseph Parker’s first fight in Samoa next year, and the team will include Alapati “The Heat Man” A’asa, who lost his first title fight to Hemi Ahio in New Zealand last month.

BRIEFS

Jordan grabs 24 rebounds,

Clippers beat Blazers 10

LOS ANGELES (AP) — The way the Portland Trail Blazers kept fouling DeAndre Jordan down the stretch in a feeble attempt to rally from a double-digit deficit was enough to turn anyone’s stomach — Damian Lillard notwithstanding.

Portland sent Jordan to the free throw line nine times in the final 3:51, and the Clippers’ center missed 10 of 18. But it didn’t help the cold-shooting Blazers, who finished at 37.9 percent as Los Angeles beat them 102-87 on Monday night.

Jordan had a season-high 24 rebounds to go with 18 points, and Blake Griffin scored 23 to help the Clippers win their third in a row. The 34 free throw attempts by Jordan was a Clippers record.

“That just means more practice,” he said. “It gets boring. And it makes me miss my reservations after the game. But other than that, it’s the same.”

Lillard, who leads Portland with a 25.4 scoring average, left the game because of abdominal pain with 10:13 remaining in the third quarter and the Blazers trailing 53-51. He finished with seven points and no assists in 17 minutes.

“I’m pretty sure it was something I ate,” said Lillard, who had an omelet at the team hotel after the morning shootaround. “I didn’t feel sick when we came out there, but when I went through warmups, I started to feel a little bit sick and I was pretty messed up. I had never felt like that.

“As soon as the game started, I just felt dead,” he added. “I had no energy and I just felt weak. I tried to play through it, just to see if I would be able to get myself going. But I wasn’t comfortable turning and running in different directions with that stomach pain. I thought I was going to throw up on the court.”

Lillard has started all 264 regular-season games the Blazers have played since the fourth-year veteran guard entered the NBA. That streak is in danger of ending Tuesday night against Dallas if his ailment doesn’t subside.

“If I’m good enough to go, then I’m going to play,” he said. “But I know I can’t go out there the way I was tonight. Hopefully I’ll be ready.”

Griffin, who began the day with an NBA-best .548 field goal percentage, made eight of 19 shots and grabbed eight boards. Chris Paul had 10 points and six assists in 24 minutes, exiting in the third quarter because of a strained rib muscle.

Griffin’s 450 points are the most by a Clippers player through the first 18 games of a season since the franchise relocated from San Diego to Los Angeles in 1984-85.

The Clippers barely outrebounded Portland 55-54, the first time in 18 games this season that they had the advantage in that department — although they have finished on even terms three times.

Maurice Harkless led Portland with 15 points. Shooting guard C.J. McCollum, who entered second on the team with a 20.4 scoring average, missed eight of his first nine shots and finished 4 for 15 with 12 points and 10 assists.

Meyers Leonard trimmed the Clippers’ lead to 77-70 on an 11-footer with 9:12 to play, but Los Angeles went on a 15-6 run to pull ahead 92-76 with 4 1/2 minutes remaining. J.J. Redick capped the rally with his fourth and final 3-pointer.

McCollum hit a 3 from the top of the key with 2 seconds left in the first half, pulling the Blazers into a 49-all tie.

Harkless, the fourth player off the Portland bench, led the Blazers with 11 points in the half — all during a 21-3 surge that turned a 13-point deficit into a 42-37 lead with 3:34 left in the second quarter.

Los Angeles opened the game with a 19-4 run that included seven points and six rebounds by Jordan, the franchise’s career rebounding leader. The Clippers are 16-8 in the regular season when he grabs at least 20.

TIP-INS

Trail Blazers: Lillard, in the first season of a five-year, $120 million contract extension, has led Portland in scoring in 15 of its first 18 games. ... C Chris Kaman, who spent his first eight NBA seasons with the Clippers, didn’t play because of a sprained right ankle. ... The Blazers finished a five-game stretch in which they played the Clippers and Lakers twice each. ... The Blazers go into December with a 7-11 record, compared to their 13-4 mark last season. They have won more than 50 games in each of the last two seasons. ... Portland is 0-8 when trailing after three quarters.

Clippers: Redick has made a career-high 11 field goals in a game on four occasions, and three of those times he did it against Portland. He was 5 for 14 in this one. ... The Clippers recalled G C.J. Wilcox and F Branden Dawson from the Bakersfield Jam of the D-League. Both were on the inactive list.

SuSpECT IN plaNNEd parENThOOd aTTaCk makES 1ST appEaraNCE

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) — The man accused in the shooting rampage at a Colorado Planned Parenthood clinic made his first court appearance Monday and learned that he will face first-degree murder charges in the deaths of three people killed in the standoff with police.

Speaking in a raspy voice, Robert Lewis Dear appeared via a video hookup from the El Paso County Jail, where he has been held since surrendering after Friday’s five-hour siege.

The white-bearded suspect wore a padded vest with black straps that authorities described as a standard-issue “safety smock.” He gazed downward during most of the hearing. Victims’ relatives watched from a courtroom.

When asked by Chief District Judge Gilbert Martinez if he understood his rights, Dear replied, “no questions.”

Public defender Daniel King, who represented Colorado the-ater shooter James Holmes, stood beside Dear and will act as his attorney. The suspect is expected to be formally charged on Dec. 9.

Dear, 57, is accused of fatally shooting a university police officer who responded to the attack, as well as an Iraq war vet-eran and a mother of two inside the clinic. Nine other people were wounded.

After Monday’s hearing, District Attorney Dan May said Dear could face other charges, but he did not elaborate.

Late Monday, the husband of Jennifer Markovsky, a woman who was killed in the assault, released a statement recalling how she read to their two children and helped them with their home-work. “We will miss her; her cooking, crafting and adventurous spirit,” Paul Markovsky wrote.

EQuIpmENT ThEFT

Police investigate equipment theft at Hilo nonprofit group HILO, Hawaii (AP) — Police are investigating the theft of thousands of dollars’ worth of equipment from a Hilo nonprofit organization that employs adults with disabilities.

The Hawaii Tribune-Herald reports employment training man-ager Charmaine Ka-ipo discovered the theft when she arrived at the Arc Of Hilo on Friday morning.

Ka-ipo says surveillance video shows the theft of equipment worth an estimated total of more than $4,800, including a 2013 Carson utility trailer with the license plate number 745 HYZ.

The trailer contained three orange and silver weed trimmers, a 15-gallon poison sprayer, five green Ryobi Echo backpack blowers, a red Shindaiwa 18-inch chain saw, a black and red Honda 21-inch lawnmower and an orange Stihl hedger.

Police Maj. Sam Thomas called the theft “disgusting.” Anyone with information is asked to contact authorities.

Judge: State underfunded Department of Hawaiian Home Lands

HONOLULU (AP) — A judge says the state has to appropriate millions of dollars more to fund the Department of Hawaiian Homelands adequately for the first time since at least 1992.

The Honolulu Star-Advertiser reports First Circuit Judge Jean-nette Castagnetti ruled the state violated its constitutional duty to appropriately fund the department, impacting staffing and Native Home Lands Trust beneficiaries.

Hawaii is obligated to budget about $18.4 million more this year for the department.

Friday’s ruling was issued about eight years after the nonprofit Native Hawaiian Legal Corporation filed the lawsuit on behalf of six Native Hawaiians. Plaintiff Kelii Ioane Jr. applied for a home-stead lease in 1981 and has been waiting on an agricultural or pas-toral lot ever since.

Attorney General Doug Chin says the state will consider an appeal.

Volunteers take mile-long lei to Paris

WAILUKU, Hawaii (AP) — A mile-long lei is in Paris after as many as 200 volunteers spent five days weaving together 250 pounds of ti leaves and orchids.

The fatal Nov. 13 terrorist attacks on the city prompted Nalu’s South Shore Grill, Hawaiian Paddle Sports and the Cynthia Rose Foundation to launch the lei project.

United Airlines volunteered to ship the lei and paid for a plane ticket.

Organizers plan to take sections of the lei to memorial sites at the Bataclan concert hall, Le Carillon cafe and bar, and Stade de France stadium.

EUGENE, Ore. (AP) — If bad things tend to happen in threes as many believe, Oregon coach Dana Altman can only hope his team has gotten letting big leads nearly slip away out of its system.

Dillon Brooks had 21 points and 10 rebounds and the 15th-ranked Ducks staved off a late rally by Fresno State for a 78-73 victory Monday night.

“That’s the third time we’ve had a double-digit lead and we let them back in, not fin-ishing the game,” Altman said, pointing to similar wins over Baylor and Valparaiso. “I’d like to finish games stronger.”

Chris Boucher and Elgin Cook added 14 points each for the Ducks (6-0), who led 70-52 with 6:35 to play before Mar-velle Harris scored 13 points in a 16-2 run by the Bulldogs (5-1) that cut the deficit to four.

A driving layup by Brooks put Oregon up 74-68 with 1:20 left, and the Ducks held on by making four of six free throws in the final 45 seconds.

It was the second double-double of the season and fourth of his career for Brooks, a soph-omore who had 13 points and six rebounds in the second half.

“He did make some big plays there,” Altman said. “You have to have somebody make some plays and he definitely did that down the stretch.”

Harris, who didn’t score until the 12:04 mark of the second half, led Fresno State with 18 points, while Paul Watson added 11 and Torren Jones had 10 points and 11 rebounds.

The Bulldogs won the rebounding battle 41-32 behind Jones and Karachi Edo, who had nine rebounds and 10 points.

Freshman Tyler Dorsey, Oregon’s leading scorer at 15.2 points per game, finished with 12.

Altman pointed to two areas of concern heading into

Ore-gon’s first road game: too many turnovers (17) and not enough defense after Fresno State shot 50.0 percent in the second half and scored 48 points.

“Our ball-handling’s got to improve tremendously,” Altman said. “Defensively the second half was not good. We give up a lot of easy baskets.”

The Ducks scored the game’s first 11 points, went up by as many as 14 and took a 37-25 halftime lead. The Ducks did most of the damage from inside the 3-point arc (9 of 10) and at the free throw line, outscoring the Bulldogs 13-5.

Fresno State, meanwhile, missed its first six shots from the field, shot 29.0 percent (9 of 31) and saw its top two scorers, Harris and Cezar Guerrero, held scoreless for the first 20 minutes.

The senior guards came in averaging 20.2 and 13.2 points per game, respectively.

“You like to think you’re going to start most games better than we did tonight, but we fought some adversity,” Fresno State coach Rodney Terry said. “We let our offense affect our defense in the first seven min-utes of the game.”

TakING OFFENSE

Oregon cooled off in the second half, shooting 39.4 per-cent from the field to finish 24 of 55 (43.6 percent). Much to Altman’s dismay, the Ducks went “hunting for shots” instead of running the offensive set he called from the sideline. “If I don’t recognize what we’re run-ning, our percentages are really bad,” he said. “When I had a little idea of what we’re trying to accomplish, our percentages go way up, but we’ve got a lot of wasted possessions where I’ve got no idea what we’re trying to do.”

mISSEd OppOrTuNITIES

After finally finding some offensive flow behind Harris

late in the second half to close within four points, the Bull-dogs couldn’t draw any closer. Part of the reason was several late turnovers, as Fresno State finished with 18, more than its opponent for the first time in six games. “”We didn’t get the execution we wanted late in the second half,” Terry said. “Nev-ertheless, I can live with those kinds of mistakes because guys are going hard.”

TIp-INS

Fresno State: Harris, the preseason choice for Mountain West Conference player of the year, needed one point to crack the Bulldog’s all-time top 10 in scoring. After going scoreless in the first half, he finished with 18 to rank 10th with 1,425, one behind Tod Bernard in ninth place, in 107 career games. ... The Bulldogs fell to 2-10 all-time against Oregon. They last time they beat the Ducks, who have won the last five meetings, was in 1995. ... Fresno State hasn’t beaten a Top 25 team on the road since 2000.

Oregon: The Ducks are 40-2 against nonconference oppo-nents since moving into Mat-thew Knight Arena five years ago. ...

The 6-0 start is Oregon’s second in the last nine years. The Ducks started 13-0 two sea-sons ago.

Brooks’ big game leads No.

Missouri governor, Rams own

-er meet day before NFL meet

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon met with Rams owner Stan Kroenke Monday, the day before an NFL owners meeting in Dallas where teams will discuss putting a franchise in Los Angeles. Nixon spokeswoman Channing Ansley confirmed the meeting at Rams Park but declined to comment fur-ther. Owners of the St. Louis Rams, San Diego Chargers and Oak-land Raiders are all exploring moves to Los Angeles. Members of a task force appointed by Nixon have been working for months to develop a counterproposal to Kroenke’s efforts to move the Rams, but there’s been little or no contact between Nixon and Kroenke until Monday. The governor and Kroenke met the same day law-makers blasted plans for a new stadium during a House Budget Committee hearing in Jefferson City.

Nixon’s push for a new stadium has frustrated some law-makers, who either want a say in the matter or want such a plan to go to a vote of the people. For almost an hour Monday, lawmakers questioned Administration Commissioner Doug Nelson about the finances of the proposal and the potential impact on the state’s credit rating if the Legislature refuses to budget money to pay off debt for a new stadium. Nelson answered few of their questions. He said he’s never met with task force member Dave Peacock, said it’s unclear whether lawmaker refusal to pay off stadium debt would hurt Missouri’s high credit rating and questioned whether the Rams will move.

O le tele o fa’aiuga o loo faia e le feterale o loo a’afia ai Amerika Samoa, e aunoa ma le fesiligia o se finagalo o le atunu’u, o se tasi lea o mataupu na taua e le afioga i le Maoputasi ia Mauga Tasi Asuega i luma o le Fonotaga a le Kapeneta i le vaiaso na te’a nei, na soalaupule i ai ta’ita’i o le atunu’u i se latou fonotaga sa faia i le tolu vaiaso talu ai.

O le autu o le fonotaga a ta’ita’i o le atunu’u e pei ona saunoa le Failautusi o le Ofisa o Mataupu Tau Samoa i luma o le kapeneta, o le tau sailiina lea o se auala e fofo ai fa’afitauli ua maitauina le alia’e soo mai i le va feagai o Amerika Samoa ma le malo feterale, i lo latou faia o fa’aiuga e aunoa ma le fesiligia o se finagalo o Amerika Samoa.

Na faailoa e Mauga i luma o le Kapeneta e fa’apea, o le isi auala e mafai ona foia le alia’e soo mai pea o tulaga le manuia nei mai le malo feterale, o le taumafai lea o Fa’atonusili o Matag-aluega eseese a le malo o loo galulue fa’atasi ma Ofisa o le Feterale i mataupu e manuia ai Amerika Samoa i le lumana’i, e fautua i sui o le feterale ina ia tuu muamua le avanoa e talata-lanoa ai ta’ita’i o le atunu’u ma itumalo eseese, i le sailiina lea o le tofa ma se faaiuga e tasi i ai Amerika Samoa uma, ina ia mafai ai e le malo feterale ona latou silafia lagona ma manatu o loo finagalo i ai Amerika Samoa.

Mo se fa’ata’ita’iga e pei ona saunoa Mauga, o le fonotaga a le Komisi o Faiga Faiva a le Pase-fika lea na talimalo ai Amerika Samoa i le masina o Oketopa talu ai.

“O le isi lea avanoa lelei mo Amerika Samoa ma ona ta’ita’i e fa’asoa ai o latou finagalo i mataupu o loo a’afia ai o tatou ogasami ma faiga faiva, peita’i e le’i maua e o tatou tagata se avanoa e talanoa atu ai, ona e puupuu le taimi na logoina mai ai le atunu’u,” o le saunoaga lea a Mauga.

“O avanoa faapea, o avanoa lelei ia mo Amerika Samoa ma ona tagatanu’u, e fa’aleo ai o latou manatu e uiga i ni mataupu e ono aafia ai lo tatou lumana’i, ina ia silafia e le malo feterale le mafua’aga e ala ai ona tete’e pe lagolagoina fo’i e Amerika Samoa se mataupu,” o le isi lea saunoaga a Mauga.

“O mataupu taua faapenei e pei o mataupu sa talanoaina i le Fonotaga a le Komisi o Faiga Faiva a le Pasefika, o ni mataupu e le gata e taua,

ae ma’ale’ale fo’i mo le atunu’u, e tatau fo’i ona tu’u atu le avanoa i le atunu’u e fa’asoa ma soa-laupule ai o latou finagalo, ina ia maua se tasi ma mafai ai ona fa’asoa ao faafofoga sui o le feterale,” o le saunoaga lea a Mauga.

Na tu’ua le malo e lana afioga le sa’o Tuiteleleapaga Peseta Fue Ioane i le aso 30 Oketopa, 2015 i lona aiga i Iliili, ma ua atoa ai le 86 tausaga o lona soifua. O ona toe sauniga sa fa’atautaia lea i le Malumalu O le Koluse Pa’ia i Leone, ia Novema 19, 2015 ma lagomau ai o ia i lona aiga i lea lava aso. Na soifua mai o ia i ona matua o Tuiteleleapaga Ioane Napo-leone ma Tulili Melea Aumavae i Leone ia Aperila 07, 1929 ma o ia sa atoa i ai le to’aono o le fanau a ona matua.

Na fa’aipoipo o ia i lana manamea o Rufo Seipepa Suiaunoa ma e to’a valu o la alo: Elizabeth Christina & Iupeli Sefo Mageo; Ruth Ellen; The-resa Anne; Fue Ioane Jr.; Lenaoso Herman Fue & Titoa’ana Tuile-fano, Lafogaleula Toetasi Fue & Louisa Fa’avaivai Te’o; Ioane Fue Titimagumagu [maliu] ma Palmarina [Pu’e] Apa. E to’a fitu o fanau a lana fanau. I lona soifuaga talavou, sa molimauina e ia le tele o ituaiga koleniga fa’amaligi sa faia a fitafita o taua mai le Iunaite Setete i na tausaga, ma sa avea lea ma mea sa matua filiga ai o ia e avea ma Maligi Koa.

Na soifua a’e o ia i Leone, ma sa fa’afailele o ia e lona tina Maulalo fa’atasi ma lona tausoga o Ana, lea e vavalalata lava le la’ua feso’ota’iga i lona olaga atoa. O ia fo’i o se tasi o sui fa’au’u o le vasega lona lua na fa’au’u mai le a’oga maua-luga Samoana a’o fa’aigoaina o le High School of American Samoa, ma o ia o se tama ta’alo o le au pasiketipolo muamua lava a le tatou malo i ana a’oga maualuluga, lea na fa’ailoa mai e masani ona malaga i Hawaii e fetaui ai ma ‘au malolosi a lea setete.

Na ulufale o ia i le US Marines i le tausaga 1951, ina ua fa’aosofia lona naunau i le fia avea ma fitafita a le Maligi ona o le matamata so’o i koleniga a le ‘au maligi sa faia i tatou laufanua, ma sa ia va’aia ai le malolosi fo’i o ia fitafita. Ina ua alu ese atu, sa ia ta’utino i lona aiga, ae maise o sui matutua o lona aiga, “Ou te toe fo’i mai i se aso e tausia le aiga.” Sa a’otauina o ia i le fanafana mamao ma sa avea ai o ia ma fitafita e tiute i Korea i le taimi o lea taua. Peita’i sa lavea o ia i lena taua, ae sa talo-saga o ia, e le fia alu i tua mai le militeri, e toe fa’afo’i o ia i le taua ona o lo’o manatu tele o ia i ana uo o lo’o tau pea i lea taimi atoa. I sana fa’amatalaga sa fa’amauina e le fanau, sa ia fa’ailoa ai, “O lena taimi e le’i i ai se to’alua ma se fanau, e pau i latou sa mau ai le agaga o uso a fitafita o lo’o tauina le taua, e le fia malolo ae tatau ona faia le auaunaga ia tutusa i matou uma ona maua lea o le manumalo.”

I se fa’amatalaga fa’amauina a le tina, e tusa ai ma fa’amaumauga a le fanau, sa fa’ailoa ai i le polokalama mo le tama peleina, “O Tuiteleleapaga Ioane, e mana’o lava ia fa’ataua lona avea ma Maligi, e la’ei mama i taimi uma, e fa’aatagia ai lana fa’ataua i lona tofi fitafita o le Maligi. E le gata i lea, ae matua taua ia te ia lona malosi a’ia’i ia fa’afetauia ma lona avea ai ma fitafita maligi a le Malo tele. E tamoe i taeao ma afiafi ta’itasi, ina ia mautinoa o lo’o malosi lona tino.”

Ona sa ia polomisi e toe taliu mai e tausia aiga, sa usita’ia e ia lana lea upu, ma o le taimi tonu fo’i i lea i lona olaga na toe taliu mai ai ma lona aiga atoa. I le tausaga e 1990 sa fa’ae’e loa ia te ia le suafa o lona aiga “Tuiteleleapaga”. E matua tautua fo’i o ia i lana Ekalesia Katoliko i Leone.

Na tautua o ia i faigamalo uma e fa a Amerika Samoa, amata mai ia Kovana Pita Tali Coleman, Kovana AP Lutali ma Tauese Pita Sunia fa’apea fo’i ma Togiola Tulafono: na avea o ia ma Komesina o Leoleo, na avea o ia ma fa’atonu o le TAOA atoa ai ma le tele o Komiti fa’afoe e avea ai o ia ma totino.

“O ia o se tama e saua tele pe afai o le a e fa’ataute’e i se fa’atonuga tu’usa’o atu ia te oe e fa’atino. E le mafai ona e faia se fa’anoi i lea tama, e le faigofie ona e solituina lana fa’atonuga i so’o se taimi, e tatau ona usita’ia ana tulafono uma i totonu o le lotoifale o lona aiga,” o se molimau lea a le ali’i loia, Toetasi.

“Ua alu ma le fiafia le tama, i lana upu ia i matou le fanau, ua ou fiafia ou te alu, ua mae’a ona ou ola i se olaga sa ou mana’o ai i lo’u Atua, ua ia faia fo’i le tele o vavega i lo’u olaga, ma ua ia fa’ava’ai a’u i manuia mo outou le fanau.”

“O ia lava o le US Marine, ivi ma a’ano, e leai se mea e tasi o le tautoga fa’ale- Maligi o taua na te le fa’amalosia i lona soifuaga atoa.” O ana faailoga o lana auaunaga i lona Malo o Amerika Samoa e fitu peita’i o ona fa’ailoga patino mai le USMarine Corp e 24.

dEar aBBy: Today, Dec. 1, is World AIDS Day. With effective treatment, people with HIV can live

as long as those without HIV. Fear, shame and ignorance remain barriers to testing and treatment, which can be more deadly than HIV itself.

People with HIV who are in treatment need never develop advanced HIV (formerly full-blown AIDS). Please encourage your readers, regardless of age, gender or sexual orientation, to get tested, and if positive, to get treatment. HIV can affect anyone. -- MARY IN FREDERICK, MD.

dEar mary: I’m glad you wrote. Knowing one’s HIV status is extremely important because,

unlike in years past, the disease can be controlled. But in order to do that and not spread it to others, it is essential that sexually active individuals get tested. Readers, you can be a healthy HIV-positive person and control it IF you know you have it AND get treatment. Ask your doctor about being tested, if you have one. If you don’t have a doctor, contact your county health department about how to find testing and treatment in your community, or visit www.freehivtest.net for information about free tests in many areas across the nation and abroad.

dEar aBBy: I am retired, divorced and never had children. My two sisters have four adult children

between them. Their kids are all married and have children themselves.

Every Christmas there is a gift exchange, which I don’t attend because I stay in Florida during the winter. At this stage in my life, I dread the holiday because it is expected that I spend a minimum of $50 per person for two dozen people.

I own some properties I am desperately trying to prepare for the market. At my age, I no longer need or want anything. It has reached a point where the “preferred” gift is money, which isn’t the idea behind the Christmas holiday. How can I politely stop this habit? -- MRS. EBENEZER SCROOGE IN NEW HAMPSHIRE

dEar mrS. SCrOOGE: You politely stop the habit by telling your sisters in advance that you

are trying to prepare your properties for sale and money is limited. Therefore, you will be buying Christmas gifts only for your younger grandnieces and -nephews from now on (if you choose). Be sure to send the adults lovely holiday cards, however, so they know they are remembered.

dEar aBBy: Besides the usual snoring most wives tolerate, I have had to endure something

worse. At least once a week for the last few years, my husband will make a fist while asleep and swing it across the bed, striking me. The last time, it caused a tooth to chip, and frankly, it scares me to death.He is by no means violent when awake. Other than sleeping on the couch, what can I do? -- BLACK AND BLUE IN NEW JERSEY

dEar B aNd B: Before your husband causes you any more physical harm, schedule an

appoint-ment for him with a sleep disorder specialist. For both your sakes, please don’t put it off. Your doctor or medical insurance carrier should be able to refer you to one.
