7A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • TUESDAY, JANUARY 31, 2017 WORLD IN BRIEF because of the larger conversation about gender identity going on around the country. “For more than 100 years, the Boy Scouts of America, along with schools, youth sports and other youth organizations, have ulti- mately deferred to the information on an individual’s birth certifi- cate to determine eligibility for our single-gender programs,” the statement said. “However, that approach is no longer sufficient as communities and state laws are interpreting gender identity differ- ently, and these laws vary widely from state to state.” Associated Press Mosque shooting suspect in Canada known for far-right views QUEBEC CITY — The French Canadian university student charged with killing six Muslim men during evening prayers at a mosque was known for far-right, nationalist views and his support of the French rightist party led by Marine Le Pen. Alexandre Bissonnette was charged Monday with six counts of first-degree murder and five counts of attempted murder over the shooting rampage at a Quebec City mosque that Canada’s prime minister called an act of terrorism against Muslims. Bissonnette made a brief court appearance and did not enter a plea in the attack staged during evening prayers Sunday. Wearing a white prisoner jump suit, his hands and feet shackled, he stared down at the floor and fidgeted, but did not speak. The 27-year-old suspect, who has espoused support for Le Pen and U.S. President Donald Trump on his Facebook page, was known to those who monitor extremist groups in Quebec, said François Deschamps, an official with a refugee advocacy group. “It’s with pain and anger that we learn the identity of terrorist Alexandre Bissonnette, unfortunately known to many activists in Quebec for taking nationalist, pro-Le Pen and anti-feminist posi- tions at Laval University and on social media,” Deschamps wrote on the Facebook page of the group, Bienvenues aux Refugiés, or Welcome to Refugees. Boy Scouts will allow transgender children into programs DALLAS — A New Jersey woman whose son was asked to leave his Boy Scouts troop after leaders found out he’s transgen- New Indonesia tsunami network could add crucial minutes AP Photo/Mary Altaffer Cub Scouts watch a race during the second annual World Championship Pinewood Derby in New York’s Times Square in June. The Boy Scouts of America announced Monda that it will allow transgender children who identify as boys to enroll in its boys only programs. der said she has mixed emotions after the organization announced it will allow transgender children who identify as boys to enroll in its boys-only programs. The Boy Scouts of America made the announcement Monday. The organization said it made the decision to begin basing enrollment in its boys-only programs on the gender a child or par- ent lists on the application to become a scout. The Boy Scouts had previously held a policy that relied on the gender listed on a child’s birth certificate for those programs. The organization’s leadership considered Joe Maldonado’s case in Secaucus, New Jersey. The 8-year-old had been asked to leave his Scout troop after parents and leaders found out he is transgen- der. But the statement issued Monday said the change was made JAKARTA, Indonesia — Indonesia’s tsunami detection system, made up of seafloor sensors that communicate with transmitting buoys on the surface, has been rendered useless by vandals and lack of funding. Now Indonesian and U.S. scientists say they’ve devel- oped a way to dispense with the expensive buoys and possibly add crucial extra minutes of warning for vulnerable coastal cities. The prototype, nearly four years in the making, is designed for detection of so-called near-field tsunamis and has been tested off Padang on the western coast of Sumatra. It awaits a decision on government funding to connect it to disaster agencies on land. A tsunami triggered by a Dec. 26, 2004 earthquake in the Indian Ocean that killed or left missing nearly 230,000 people, a large share in Indonesia, raised the urgency of ensuring communities have the fastest possible warnings. But when a sizeable earthquake struck near the Mentawai islands 170 kilometers (106 miles) from Padang in March last year, none of the buoys in the area meant to transmit tsunami warnings were working. A disaster official said all of Indonesia’s 22 buoys, which cost several hundred thousand dollars each and are expen- sive to operate, were inoperable because of vandalism by boat crews or a lack of funds for maintenance. Lawsuit: For years, making hash oil was unregulated Continued from Page 1A He says the facility lacked adequate ventilation and exit routes, automatic sprinklers and gas detectors among other safety features. According to the suit, he was not given fire-retar- dant clothing or other pro- tective equipment and was not warned about the dangers posed by butane. Magley claims that Jason Oei, one of those named in the suit, consumed cannabis oil in a technique called “dab- bing” while William “Chris” West handled butane. Magley alleges Oei’s dabbing caused the explosion, which rocked the building on Oct. 19. West, too, was injured in the blast. Amy Margolis, a lawyer for the pair, declined to com- ment Monday. Risky business Making hash oil using butane can be dangerous. For years, the activity was unreg- ulated and underground, car- ried out by home producers who often misunderstand the risks. The gas, a cheap and flammable solvent, is used to extract tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC, from marijuana flow- ers and leaves. It can quickly fill an enclosed space, where some- thing as ordinary as a pilot light can ignite a fireball. The dangers led to a new state law that makes unli- censed production of mari- juana extracts a felony. The provision is intended to tar- get homemade butane hash oil operations and not com- mercial operations, which are regulated by the state. Clatsop County authorities launched a criminal investiga- tion into the explosion. That inquiry is pending. An official with Oregon Occupational Safety and Health Admin- istration, an agency whose mission is worker safety and health, said Monday that its investigation also is ongoing. License application Meanwhile, Oei and West are have applied for licenses to produce and process mar- ijuana for the recreational market, said Mark Pettinger, a spokesman of the Oregon Liquor Control Commission. Pettinger said the agency is not processing the appli- cation until outside agen- cies complete their investiga- tions. The outcome of those investigations could factor into whether the state issues a license, he said. Magley’s lawyer, Jonah Flynn, of Atlanta, Georgia, said Monday that his client suffered burns on his upper torso and that emergency workers arrived to find his skin “falling off.” The episode has caused Magley lasting trauma, his lawyer said. “He’s having a hard time,” he said. Flynn said Astoria Trading Co. is the parent com- pany of Higher Level Con- centrates, which at the time of the blast was on the Ore- gon Health Authority’s list of state-authorized marijuana processors. Flynn, a personal injury lawyer, also represented a Gresham man severely burned in a 2013 butane hash oil blast that killed his friend. That suit has been “resolved” and dismissed, Flynn said, adding that the terms of the resolution are confidential. Center: Patients usually stay at Bridge to Pathways for five to eight days Continued from Page 1A drugs or alcohol. After they detox, patients can move into Pathways — a 16-bed residential treatment program upstairs — or other residential or outpatient ther- apy, but there is no requirement. Many residential treatment pro- grams only accept private health insurance, often have high out- of-pocket costs, and do not offer a detox-only option. “It’s meeting the client where they’re at,” said Kim Krause, the administrator at Pathways. “A client may not be ready to enter residential. They may think that they just need to be detoxed and then they’ll be stable and then they’ll be able to re-engage at home and in an outpatient facility.” Krause said some patients may come into detox two or THE DAILY ASTORIAN T UESDAY E VENING A (2) (-) (-) (6) (-) (8) (9) (10) (12) (13) (-) (20) (-) (29) (30) (31) (32) (34) (35) (36) (38) (39) (43) (44) (45) (46) (47) (48) (49) (50) (51) (52) (53) (54) (56) (57) (58) (61) (63) (64) (65) (162) (2) (4) (5) (-) (7) (-) (3) (10) (12) (-) (13) (20) (22) (29) (30) (31) (32) (34) (35) (36) (38) (39) (43) (44) (45) (46) (47) (48) (49) (50) (51) (52) (53) (54) (56) (57) (58) (61) (63) (64) (65) (162) Elise assisted living community the ing with the grumpiness, the irritability, the yelling and the screaming, the tears, the sick.

The detox cen- ter is part of Columbia Com- munity Mental Health and backed by the Columbia Pacific LISTINGS Coordinated Care Organization, the umbrella for the Oregon Health Plan in Columbia, Clat- sop and Tillamook counties. “Anybody in recovery needs to do it as close to their home environment as possi- ble,” said Jay Yedziniak, the compliance officer at Colum- bia Community Mental Health. “And detox is an important part of that recovery for some people.” Evening listings TUESDAY J ANUARY 31 A - Charter Astoria/ Seaside - L - Charter Long Beach PM 6:30 7 PM 7:30 8 PM 8:30 9 PM 9:30 10 PM 10:30 11 PM 11:30 KATU News at 6 Jeopardy!
