Ocean container rates on the eastbound Trans-Pacific are falling by double digits in a surprise move from China carriers ahead of new US port fees. The ship tax, which begins next week, charges China-owned or operated ships $80 per net tonnage for each voyage to the U.S. and could cost major players like Cosco and OOCL as much as $2.1 billion in 2026. Autonomous trucking company Kodiak AI just debuted on the NASDAQ after successfully combining with Ares Acquisition Corporation II, resulting in a $2.5 billion valuation for the newly public company. Kodiak secured more than $275 million in funding through this de-SPAC transaction, which CEO Don Burnette noted marks an inflection point for the industry as self-driving technology matures toward commercial deployment. Additionally, the Senate confirmed David Fink, a former Pan Am Railways president and fifth-generation railroader, to lead the Federal Railroad Administration. President Trump nominated Fink, stating he would "deliver the FRA into a new era of safety and technological innovation". Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
On January 23, 1959, ten hikers embarked on a wilderness hiking/skiing expedition into the Ural Mountains in the Eastern Soviet Union. Most of the hikers were students at Sverdlovsk's Ural Polytechnic Institute (UPI). One of the hikers began to feel ill and left the group early, but when the remaining nine hikers did not return to the Institute by February 20, searchers began looking for them. Their horrific discovery persists as one of the great mysteries of the northern wilderness. ___________ For More Stories of Murder and Mystery ___________________ https://youtu.be/7Fv52Bf8yfY ___________________ Join the Last Frontier Club's Free Tier ______ Robin Barefield lives in the wilderness on Kodiak Island, where she and her husband own a remote lodge.

A family moved to a small Alaska village because the parents believed it would be a safe environment where they could raise their children. Then, the unthinkable happened. Eleven-year-old Mandy Lemaire only had to walk a short distance to her girlfriend's house, but when she didn't arrive, the entire village began searching for her. ___________________ ___________________ https://youtu.be/7Fv52Bf8yfY ___________________ Join the Last Frontier Club's Free Tier ______ Robin Barefield lives in the wilderness on Kodiak Island, where she and her husband own a remote lodge.

Interview with Claudia Tornquist, CEO & Chris Taylor, Chairman of Kodiak CopperOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/kodiak-copper-tsxvkdk-maiden-resource-reveals-300m-tonnes-at-bc-copper-project-7337Recording date: 9th September 2025Kodiak Copper Corp is positioned for a significant catalyst with its maiden resource estimate due in Q4 2025, marking a crucial inflection point for the copper-gold porphyry explorer. Led by President and CEO Claudia Tornquist with Chairman Chris Taylor, the company has systematically consolidated a mining district in southern British Columbia through six years of disciplined exploration, completing 90,000 meters of drilling across seven mineralized zones.The initial resource phase, released in June 2025, delivered approximately 300 million tons at grades of 0.42% copper equivalent for indicated resources and 0.33% for inferred resources across four zones. The completion of the full maiden resource incorporating the remaining three zones will provide comprehensive visibility into the project's scale potential. Recent drilling has identified particularly attractive high-grade intersections near surface, including 27 meters at 1.62% copper, which could serve as starter pits for future mining operations.Management acknowledges the strategic reality of large-scale porphyry development, with Tornquist noting that "I don't think there's a single porphyry project that was developed by the junior who did the initial exploration. Very likely at some stage a major will take interest." This positions Kodiak as an acquisition target rather than an operator, typical for projects requiring substantial capital investment.The company trades at a significant valuation discount to comparable peers, with management identifying similar companies at $300-400 million market capitalizations representing five to six times Kodiak's current valuation. The dual copper-gold exposure provides additional value, particularly with gold representing 25% of project value and trading well above the $2,600 per ounce used in resource calculations.Beyond the flagship MPD project, Kodiak owns the undeveloped Mohave copper-molybdenum project in Arizona, providing portfolio optionality. With adequate financing from a recent Canaccord round and clear development milestones ahead, Kodiak offers leveraged exposure to the copper supply shortage while maintaining strong M&A potential.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/kodiak-copper-corpSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
A ghost ship is an adrift vessel with no living passengers or crew aboard. Sometimes, we know why the ship was abandoned or what tragedy occurred to the passengers and crew, but other times, we are left to guess what happened aboard the vessel during the last few hours and minutes when the crew inexplicably abandoned the ship or died aboard it.

This week, we return to the subject of autonomous trucking with a SPAC target that already logged months of its trucks operating autonomously in an industrial setting with rollouts on public highways and defense applications inbound. That company is Kodiak, which announced a $2.6 billion combination with Ares Acquisition Corporation II (NYSE:AACT) in April. Kodiak CEO Don Burnette joins us to explain how the company has sought to blaze a trail to commercialization for the company while burning a fraction of the R&D cash that some of its peers have to get to this same point. Don explains how the company has looked to apply that same capital efficiency to the structure of its SPAC combination and what opportunities he sees on the other side of the company's drive into the public markets.
This week we hear about the latest rocket launch from the Kodiak Island spaceport, a "plus-up" underway at Coast Guard Base Kodiak, more than 50 dead shearwaters found near Kodiak beaches, brown bears are wreaking havoc at the landfill, the Alutiiq Museum's annual meeting, and KIBSD school district staff prepare for the new school year.

It took a horrible murder for Alaska to revise its statutes for the criminally insane from some of the most lenient sentencing laws in the country to the strictest laws in the U.S. for the insanity defense. On the night of May 3, 1982, one veteran Anchorage police officer was quoted as saying, “This has got to be one of the grisliest nights I've ever seen.” Within an hour, seven people lost their lives. Three died in the Black Bull bar in the Muldoon section of Anchorage, and the other four were shot in Russian Jack Springs Park in East Anchorage. At first, investigators wondered if the two crime scenes were connected, but they soon learned nothing linked the two horrific events. Sources Ice Cold Killers Season Two, Episode One: Blood Red Sun.

When a fifty-two-year-old traveling nurse disappeared in Anchorage in 2001, the authorities showed little interest, and the Anchorage Police Department said they did not have available detectives to investigate the case.

En verano hay campamentos de todo tipo, pero en Mollina y Alameda, dos localidades malagueñas, hay uno muy especial, un campamento de flamenco. Del 21 al 26 de julio 70 afortunados, 70 alumnos han recibido clases de teórica, tecnica, compás y coreografía. Hablamos con Luis Guillermo Cortés, el director del campamento.Además, la realidad lleva tiempo recordándonos que lo que nos parecía muy lejano o muy improbable cada vez lo es menos, y lo importante que es estar preparados para prevenir y afrontar situaciones de riesgo. Y seguramente eso es lo que hay detrás del boom que están experimentando las escuelas de supervivencia. Cursos para aprender habilidades básicas y técnicas de primeros auxilios que pueden servirnos mucho más de lo que pensamos en nuestra vida cotidiana. El interés es tal que muchos de estos cursos tienen ya lista de espera para este verano, como los que imparte Kodiak, una escuela de supervivencia de Jacacharlamos con Jokin Pallarés, Director técnico y fundador de esta escuela.

Paring Down: Realistic minimalism to live more intentionally
Here's what went down on our 3-week road trip to Alaska, insight into our new life in Kodiak, and what we've decluttered since we arrived!

In this one, I talk to Katie Ringsmuth. She's the Alaska State Historian, the Deputy State Historic Preservation Officer and the creator of the NN Cannery History Project, a seven-year effort to preserve and interpret the stories of the people who powered one of Alaska's most historic salmon canneries. For Katie, this story is personal. She grew up around the NN Cannery in South Naknek, where her dad worked for decades, eventually becoming the last superintendent of the Alaska Packers' Association. He started in 1964 as a young college graduate in Kodiak, doing whatever odd jobs needed doing — from sorting crab to running the entire operation at the NN Cannery. Under his leadership, the cannery shifted away from the rigid, old-school model of command-and-control superintendents — “Tony Soprano–style,” as Katie puts it — and toward something more humane. He created housing for families, hired women and built a workplace that people returned to year after year. The NN Cannery History Project is more than just about the processing plant, it's about preserving its historical importance and honoring its workers. The cannery itself was a cultural crossroads with a workforce that included Alaska Native peoples, Scandinavians, Italians, Japanese, Chinese, and Filipino laborers. Canned food revolutionized how people ate. It made it possible to preserve and transport perishable foods across vast distances, reshaping global diets and economies — and the NN Cannery was a key player in that transformation. Originally built as a saltery in 1897, the NN Cannery went on to produce more canned salmon than any other cannery in the state. Katie's work on the NN Cannery History Project ultimately led to the site being listed on the National Register of Historic Places, a recognition that underscores its national significance. Throughout the project, Katie explores how Alaska fits into the global history of canned food and how preservation — both of fish and of stories — can change the way we understand place, labor and legacy.

On the morning of October 7, 2010, Lisa Donlon dialed 911 and told the dispatcher she had just shot and killed her husband. When the police arrived at the twenty-foot by twenty-foot, one-room shed where Lisa lived with her husband, Jason, and their three young sons, they found Jason lying in bed on his stomach. Lisa had shot him once in the head and five times in the back. She claimed she'd killed him in self-defense while he slept. Her two youngest sons were present in the cabin when their mother murdered their father. Lisa's body showed signs of abuse, and she told a horrific story about the torture she'd endured at the hands of her husband, Jason. Still, people asked the age-old question. Instead of killing Jason, why didn't she take her children and leave? Sources Bottaro, Angelica. “How to recognize and end the cycle of abuse.” June 8, 2022. Verywell health.
