The children were divided into categories with classes and activities designed to match academic levels and abilities. The wellness program is the most appealing to all campers with Ryan Taifane leading them in afternoon exercises just before their lunch. Sanerive & Tony were also instrumental in leading the youngest group of campers in their art classes, singing Samoan melodies, ula making and of course the meet with Polamalu. which was the highlight of the camp, Nellie and the rest of the Land Grant 4H crew are doing a marvelous job with all the happy campers in their care for three days - We love our camp, we are enjoying every minute of it, said Zynbad Tama. In this photo of the 5-8year old group, Rive is trying to show some of the campers how to color together. Togetherness is the emphasis here - for military family children, they miss their parents but turn to friends to fill that missing gap.

3 samoa news, Saturday, July 6, 2013 Page 3 Veukitau murder case bound over to High Court by Joyetter Feagaimaali i-luamanu Samoa News Reporter Detective Filemoni Amituana i of the Criminal Investigation Division told the court that Arthur Afa Christopher Blake struck Lopeti Kalala Veukitau with a crowbar right in front of Lopeti s seven year old son. The defendant is held in jail on a $500,000 bail, one of the highest ever set for a defendant in the territory s judicial history. A first degree murder charge is a felony which is punishable by death or life imprisonment without parole until 40 years of the sentence has been served. Lopeti, a father of four, is a Tongan National who migrated to the territory some time ago. This was heard during the Preliminary Examination Hearing held earlier this week, where District Court Judge John Ward found that there was probable cause to have this matter bound over to High Court. Blake is accused in the brutal murder of Lopeti two Sundays ago. Chief Assistant Attorney General in the criminal Division, Camille Philippe is the prosecutor in this matter while the defense attorney is Assistant Public Defender Karen Shelley. Det. Amituana i was the only witness called to the stand. He told the court that the seven year old son said he saw Blake striking his father. The wife of Lopeti also told the lead investigator that she was surprised when her son came running into the house covered with blood, yelling that the defendant had struck his dad. The Court also heard from Det. Amituana i, who said that Blake told him that he had planned to kill Lopeti a week earlier with a bush knife and was going to cut Lopeti into pieces, but something came up and he was unable to do it at the time. The Detective further told the court that at the scene, Lopeti was found lying in a large pool of blood with injuries to his head, including a large gash and a puncture wound. Court filings say that in the course of the investigation the defendant was located near an abandoned house not far from the scene of the crime. Defendant immediately told officers he knew officers were there to get him because of what happened earlier. CID Detectives noted that the defendant s clothes had blood stains all over them. Blake told the police during his questioning that Lopeti woke him up early that morning around 7:30a.m. asking him to fetch tapioca from the plantation for lunch. Court filings say that the defendant was very upset with Lopeti for waking him when he was tired, and asking him to do chores. Defendant said he asked Lopeti for a knife to get the tapioca, but defendant said the real reason he asked for the knife was to use it to cut up Lopeti. According to Det Amituana i, Blake said that instead of a bush knife, Lopeti gave him a butcher knife and he figured that he could not kill Lopeti with a butcher knife because it was too small; so he went for the crowbar near the [coconut] husk[s] with the intention of killing Lopeti. Amituana i alleges that Blake said once he grabbed the crowbar, he walked back to where Lopeti was bending down and swung the crowbar in a vertical motion, aiming at Lopeti s head. Blake further told the police that the first blow landed on Lopeti s head and when the victim fell to ground gasping for air, Blake struck him again on the left side of his body three or four times. The defendant said he realized Lopeti was still alive so he decided to finish Lopeti off by hitting him further on the head. According to the Detective, the defendant repeatedly struck Lopeti on the head, about nine or ten times. Defendant said he had been very upset and angry with Lopeti for treating him like a slave and making him do chores outside, while no one else had to. CID Detectives recovered the crowbar, which had blood stains, that had allegedly been used in the incident. During cross examination Assistant Public Karen Shelley asked Detective Amituana i if another detective was present during the interview, and the witness responded that he was accompanied by Detective Hes Sopoaga. Ms Shelley then questioned Det. Amituana i if the interview with the defendant was recorded, to which he replied no. The defendant s case is now before the High Court. Fono opens Monday, minus one senator by Fili Sagapolutele, Samoa News Correspondent Lawmakers return Monday for the 2nd Regular Session of the 33rd Legislature with the proposed final budget of fiscal year 2014 a priority that must be approved and signed into law by the governor before the start of the new fiscal year on Oct. 1, However, it will be a sad day for senators as one of the three senatorial seats of Maoputasi County is vacant, due to the passing of Sen. Fa agata Mano Fa agata last month. His funeral service is set for later next week. A family member told Samoa News yesterday that a short service for the late senator will be held at the LBJ chapel next Friday (July 12) around 7:30a.m. and then he will be transported to the Fono Guest Fale, for the state funeral set for 9a.m. Later, the late senator s coffin will be taken to the Fagatogo Methodist Church for the 2p.m. service, followed by the traditional Samoan overnight wake. He will be laid to rest the next day, following a final service at the Fagatogo Methodist Church. An official announcement from the family is expected next week. Meanwhile, lawmakers will convene at 10a.m. Monday in their respective chambers. The governor is only required by law to address the Fono in January to deliver his state of the territory address. It wasn t immediately clear yesterday if any new executive bills were expected to be sent to the Legislature for consideration during the next session. The only known new administration bill is the FY 2014 final budget proposal that lawmakers are very hopeful the governor will submit early, giving them time for a full review. The FY 2014 budget call letter went out last month directing all government agencies and departments to maintain budget ceilings under the fiscal year 2013 budget law of $ million including the FY 2013 supplemental of $5 million for the new fiscal year. As in previous budget proposals, the new administration wants all vacant positions omitted from the new fiscal year budget request. Expected to be sent to the Fono for confirmation is Malemo L. Tausaga as director of the Department of Administrative Services. Malemo, a former budget director in the Togiola Administration, was appointed Jun. 20 by Gov. Lolo Matalasi Moliga to head Administrative Services. There was no clear indication this week from the Governor s Office if two acting directors, who were rejected by the Fono in April, will be resubmitted this session. The rejected nominees are Pau Roy Ausage for the Department of Youth and Women s Affairs and Timothy Jones for the Territorial Energy Office. For bills sponsored by lawmakers, there is hope by advocates against domestic violence that the Fono will hold hearings and approve legislation that would criminalize human trafficking in the territory. The House bill is pending in committee.

4 Page 4 samoa news, Saturday, July 6, 2013 Walkin a Tight Rope If the second marriage is a success, the first one wasn t really a failure. Never trust an idea you come up with sitting down. A good day to all fine and loyal friends of Hawkeye. Here we are celebrating another Independence Day! Time really does fly when you are having fun! Hawkeye will soon embark on his onward journey towards his 70th birthday which he will not bother to celebrate. While Hawkeye has entered into the senior citizens role, he likes to think of himself as aging gracefully. Hawkeye has learned to eat the elephant a bite at a time and therefore has learned, and earned, a higher tolerance for BullS*#t! This in itself is a rather fine achievement leading in to the 70th year of his natural life. Hawkeye having embarked on his second trip at living when he was of the ripe and tender age of 52, Hawkeye considers himself as Born Again! Though not borne again as the religious populace sees it, Hawkeye did that his way also. While he did not stray from the tunnel, he did in fact enter the light. Over. Last Friday a week ago Hawkeye s cable service went out. This happened somewhere about 1:00 in the afternoon, or for those Nautical Vernacs, There was a power Pole replacement in operation and the power was off for a short while. The power was restored, but Hawkeyes Cable Service was not. Hawkeye called *611 and informed them of the problem. The person on the other end said, I will call you right back. While this never happened, and to make a long story short, this was repeated about 10 times with the same answer. This went on from Friday Afternoon, on June, 28th to the morning of July 01. Bottom line was sheer frustration on the part of Hawkeye and Sweet Leanor as this is how they while away their leisure hours. {Watching Re-Runs on Cable.} Now it is lucky that Hawk & Leanor have many DVD s in their collection at home and were able to substitute cable re-runs with re-runs of their own! Hawkeye watched some of his old Clint Eastwood collection and others that he happened to have. It was hardly any different watching Hawkeye s re-runs over that of the Cable Service Provider. Hawkeye is certain that when it comes to the time to pay his next Cable Bill, that there will be an offset on his bottom line to compensate for the loss of Cable service all during a weekend. While Hawkeye will not hold his breath, and will not pursue a phone call to the Customer Service Manager who is always in a meeting no matter whom you talk to. Now, what would make Hawkeye happy once again is to see the return of Fox News Live, and the return of HBO! It is about time that our citizens receive what we pay for! Over.. Other than that, Hawkeye and Sweet Leanor had a nice weekend. Hawkeye happened to read a few comments pertinent to the Stray Animal Situation. While Hawkeye will not apologize for anything said pertaining to that article, he certainly will never be guilty of associating Children of the Homo-sapien species with stray animals. Hawkeye happens to love both Chillen and Stray Animals, and therefore will not revisit the subject again. Re-read the article and this time read between the lines for its true intention. Do not throw rocks at stray animals, or chillen! Hawkeye is hopeful that one day soon we will see the stray animal population brought under control in such a manner that is considered to be Humane in nature. Hawkeye and Sweet Leanor are looking forward to watching all the nice parades in honor of our Independence Day celebrations. All that Hawkeye remembers is that we kicked some real ass in 1776 while earning the independence from the British. When George W. Bush rode through the Boston Common on an Ostrich, yelling: They is a Commin! And we is a runnin! This, as Hawkeye Recalls, was the beginning of the S%#t a-hittin da fan! All s well that ends well however as we seem to get along well with The Brits these days. We have Brits everywhere we look, especially if we happen to be looking in Britain! There is supposed to be a new addition to the royalty there at Buckinghorse palace in merry old England when her majesty gives birth sometime in July. It is a shame that the special child could not have been born on the American Independence Day! Folks, please do keep reading Hawkeye and interpetering it in a positive vein as it is intended. While we are at it, Hawkeye & Sweet Leanor will wish all of their friends and relatives in New Mehico, Pennsylvania, and Maryland, a happy fourth of July, especially his Nephew Gary, and his Wife Renee of Albuquerque New Mexico. Sister-in-law Marjorie, along with Fran & Jimmy Stribling. Hawkeye really should stop at that before he gets all emotional like, and cries in his Lambrusco! Until next week, keep the cows over their buckets and the chariots oiled and fueled up for the trip! Love and Hugs to all from Hawkeye & Sweet Leanor DMWR Director Dr. Ruth Matagi-Tofiga and Tisa Fa amuli, Alega resident and owner of Tisa s Barefoot Bar, who signed a Cooperative Agreement earlier this week which makes Alega Bay the newest member of the Community-based Fisheries Management Program. [photo courtesy of DMWR/ Afa Uikirifi] Alega Bay is newest member of Fisheries Management Program Tisa: we need to work together in order to survive By B. Chen, Samoa News Correspondent The Department of Marine and Wildlife Resources (DMWR) signed on Monday, July 1, a Cooperative Agreement with local businesswoman Tisa Fa amuli, making the eastside s Alega Bay the newest member of the Community-based Fisheries Management Program. The agreement was signed at the DMWR main office in Fagatogo by the Tisa s Barefoot Bar owner and DMWR Director Dr. Ruth Matagi-Tofiga. Over a telephone interview with Samoa News this week, Fa amuli said what drove her to sign the Co-op Agreement is her desire to work together with DMWR and the new administration, who seem to be proactive in the conservation and preservation of local marine resources. I know people understand that times are really tough right now and we need to do what we can to survive. We need to work together and find ways to protect the special and limited resources we have, she stated. According to Fa amuli, her life has been threatened numerous times by poachers and foreign fishermen who constantly fish around the waters in Alega. I am not a selfish person, Fa amuli said. It s not like I want to save all the fish in Alega for myself, but my livelihood and that of my family is dependent on the resources found on land and in water. If people continue to come in and take all of our marine resources away, what will be left for me and my family? These fishermen are starving and they are hungry. It s all about survival and we need to work together to find ways to protect what we have and ensure that everyone eats, without having to take from others. She concluded, The indigenous people of American Samoa need to step up and come together to work as a team in order to move forward. There are programs like the Communitybased Fisheries Management Program that are in place to help us progress towards better days. We the people are the government, and we need to work with the government if we want to become a stronger community. We need to take those extra steps and support all efforts that aim to benefit us and our children. In an correspondence to the Samoa News earlier this week, DMWR s Tepora Toliniu Lavata i explained that the Community-based Fisheries Management Program is a conservation regime that works closely with local village communities in co-managing their marine resources. Part of the Program includes the establishment of a Village Marine Protected Area (VMPA) to help replenish the marine resources. Various group meetings are held to disseminate information regarding the historical profile of the participating village s marine resources, the cultural significance, and changes - whatever they may be - that have led to its current state. The information is then compiled and recorded into the Village Fisheries Management Plan, which also outlines activities and responsibilities of the department and village communities, in their partnership, to resolve direct and indirect impacts on the coastal resources. Lavata i explained, As long as the village communities continue to participate and support the program, the department will conduct research, provide training sessions, and coordinate educational activities in further efforts to improve the state of their marine resources. Other villages that are currently a part of the Community-based Fisheries Management Program include: Aoa, Alofau, Amaua, Auto, Sa ilele, Masausi, Vatia, Poloa, Fagamalo, Matu u, and Faganeanea. Under the program, Lavata i pointed out, these communities have the authority to take action against any and all violators and trespassers of their Village Marine Protected Area, by prosecuting them under the law, based on rules and regulations that have been in place since (Continued on page 14) Osini Faleatasi Inc. reserves all rights. dba Samoa News is published Monday through Saturday, except for some local & federal holidays.

Ua latou matua ofo uma i le mana mamalu o le Atua. E pei ona tusia i le Eperu 11:6 A leai se faatuatua e le mafai ona fiafia mai o ia, aua e tatau i le alu atu i le Atua ona talitonu o loo soifua o ia, o ia foi na te tauia mai o e mai o e matua saili ia te ia. Na o Iesu lo tatou auala moni, e mafai ai mea lelei ma le matagofie lea na molimau mai le Mareko 9:29 Ua fetalai atu lea o ia ia te i latou, Ua na o le tatalo e mafai ai ona o ese o mea faapena.
