Aflac Accident
Accident Advantage
Series A36000 (TX Only)
Accidents can happen at any time. You could suffer an accidental injury while you are working around the house or walking into work. Or your child may get injured at basketball practice. When an accident happens, it can be costly. Even with major medical insurance, there may be out-of-pocket expenses that you will have to pay. In the event of an unexpected injury, Aflac can help protect your personal finances. Aflac provides individuals and families affordable insurance that helps with expenses that may not be covered by major medical insurance. Aflac pays cash benefits directly to you (unless you specify otherwise), so you can use the cash for anything you want. Which means uncovered medical expenses will not break the bank if you are injured.

Jackson County legislators and County Executive Frank White Jr. remain at an impasse over the program that runs the county's anti-drug and anti-violence tax.
On Monday, legislators voted a second time to reject White's selection to run the Combat – Community-Backed Anti-Drug Tax – program. The tax, reauthorized by voters last fall, brings in $22 million a year for a wide variety of programs, including law enforcement, prosecutors, and drug-abuse prevention.
Two weeks ago, legislators voted unanimously to reject White's appointment of Teesha Miller to run program. Legislators said they didn't oppose Miller but said White shouldn't have changed the public process to select her. They said as elected officials they should have been involved, as had been outlined earlier. In particular, Legislator Dennis Waits, D-Independence, said it was out of line to omit County Prosecutor Jean Peters Baker, who took on a high-profile role in campaigning for the tax last fall.
Days later, White named Jaime Masters, the county's chief of health services, as the acting director of Combat.
Legislators say they're still frustrated. On Monday, Waits said Legislature Chair Scott Burnett, D-Kansas City, had asked that the sheriff, the county prosecutor and several legislators – all elected officials – be included in the new selection process. He again took issue with the idea of leaving those officials out of it.
"I don't think that's a good move," Waits said, and he made the motion for the Legislature to disapprove the Masters appointment.
Legislator Dan Tarwarter, D-Kansas City, agreed and seconded the motion.
"As I stated earlier, it's about the process," Tarwater said.
Legislator Crystal Williams expressed some misgivings about another vote of disapproval – "I don't really understand why we have to go to that extreme," she said – but said she found the interim appointment, circumventing the Legislature, more troubling than the process itself.
In the end, the vote Monday was unanimous, 8-0. White did not address legislators on the issue and said after the meeting it wasn't an issue to be worked out in the media. He said he didn't know what the next step is but said Masters, as chief of health services, still has overall supervision of Combat.

Open Road Films has released roundtable interviews with Jake Gyllenhaal, Rene Russo and Dan Gilroy in support of Nightcrawler, opening Oct. 31.
Written and directed by Gilroy, Nightcrawler is set in the nocturnal underbelly of contemporary Los Angeles. Gyllenhaal stars as Lou Bloom, a driven young man desperate for work who discovers the high-speed world of L.A. crime journalism. Finding a group of freelance camera crews who film crashes, fires, murder and other mayhem, Lou muscles into the cut-throat, dangerous realm of night crawling — where each police siren wail equals a possible windfall and victims are converted into dollars and cents. Aided by Rene Russo as Nina, a veteran of the blood-sport that is local TV news, Lou thrives. In the breakneck, ceaseless search for footage, he becomes the star of his own story.

With this notice, we continue the CCP process for Washita and Optima Refuges, which we started with a notice of intent to prepare a CCP that appeared in the November 17, 1999, issue of the Federal Register (64 FR 62683). For more about the initiation of this process, see that notice. The Washita National Wildlife Refuge was established in 1961 by the authority of the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act (16 U.S.C. 661-667e) as a management overlay on Bureau of Reclamation lands and waters of Foss Reservoir, for conservation of its wildlife resource. Approximately 10 acres of land acquired through the use of Migratory Bird Conservation Stamp Act funds are to be used as an inviolate sanctuary, or for any other management purpose, for migratory birds (16 U.S.C. 715d [Migratory Bird Conservation Act]).
Comprised of the northern portion of Foss Reservoir, adjacent wetlands, uplands, and the Washita River corridor in western Oklahoma, the 8,075-acre Refuge is managed to provide habitat and food for migrating and wintering populations of geese and ducks in the Central Flyway, contributing to conservation of waterfowl resources. The Refuge has also been managed to provide a diversity of habitats for a wide range of migratory bird species, including the whooping crane (Federally listed as threatened and endangered species), neotropical migratory birds (i.e., birds that breed in the United States or Canada, but migrate to winter ranges in Mexico, Central America, South America, or the Caribbean Islands), and shorebirds. Deer, coyote, bobcat, badger, opossum, and other resident wildlife species thrive on the Refuge as well.
Management efforts at Washita Refuge focus on enhancing wetlands and uplands for migratory birds and other wildlife species.
The Optima National Wildlife Refuge was established in 1975 under the authority of the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (16 U.S.C. 661-667e, as amended), by agreement between the Department of the Interior and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. While the original purpose of the 4,333-acre Refuge was provision of wintering and resting habitat for migratory waterfowl of the Central Flyway, the Refuge provides little habitat for migratory waterfowl due to lower than anticipated water impoundment rates in the Optima Reservoir. The Optima Refuge is currently managed for resident wildlife and migratory birds. The lack of water has reduced the potential for waterfowl management. The Refuge provides an island of largely undisturbed habitat for migratory songbirds and resident species including white-tailed deer, coyote, Rio Grande turkey, and scaled quail.
The CCP Process
The National Wildlife Refuge System Administration Act of 1966, as amended by the National Wildlife Refuge System Improvement Act of 1997 (16 U.S.C. 668dd-668ee), requires us to develop a CCP for each national wildlife refuge. The purpose in developing a CCP is to provide refuge managers with a 15-year strategy for achieving refuge purposes and contributing toward the mission of the National Wildlife Refuge System, consistent with sound principles of fish and wildlife management, conservation, legal mandates, and our policies. In addition to outlining broad management direction on conserving wildlife and their habitats, plans identify wildlife-dependent recreational opportunities available to the public, including opportunities for hunting, fishing, wildlife observation, wildlife photography, and environmental education and interpretation. The National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 requires that Federal agencies analyze and report upon the potential effects of any major proposed actions and range of reasonable alternatives. The draft EA attached to the draft CCP satisfies this requirement.
CCP Alternatives and Our Proposed Action
Priority Issues
During the public scoping process with which we initiated work on this draft CCP, we, the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation, other partners, and the public raised several priority issues, which our draft CCP addresses. Priority issues included depredation of crops on farms adjacent to Washita Refuge by geese attracted to the Refuge, the need for more complete resource inventory of the biological resources of both Refuges, public pressure for additional recreational opportunities on the Refuges, and the difficulty of managing resources on Optima Refuge with no permanent staff on site. To address these priority issues, we developed and evaluated the following alternatives during the planning process.
Alternative 1, No Action, is current management, or what would occur on the Refuges if no management plans were implemented. Under Alternative 2, the Refuges would be operated at a custodial level; habitat management programs would cease and public access would be closed. Alternative 3 is the proposed action, and includes management actions and public uses that are considered to be the best feasible. Alternative 4 represents a maximum effort alternative, with intensive habitat management actions and maximized public use.
Habitat management activities: Under Alternative 1 Washita Refuge would continue to operate moist soil management areas, prescription fires, and farming for wildlife at the current levels. Under Alternative 1, habitat management on Optima Refuge would be limited to the current level of farming for wildlife and periodic clearing of firebreaks along the Refuge boundaries. Under Alternative 2, there would be no active habitat management at either Refuge. Under Alternative 3, the proposed action, habitat management would include development and implementation of an integrated pest management plan at both Refuges. Farming for wildlife would be continued at both Refuges, but would be comprehensively reviewed for appropriateness and effectiveness. Similarly, moist soil management would be continued at Washita Refuge. Both Refuges would establish annual goals for prairie restoration in areas previously altered by tillage or over-grazing. A program of salt cedar eradication and cottonwood establishment would be implemented at Optima Refuge. Under Alternative 4, habitat management programs at each Refuge would be maximized, and acreage of land farmed for wildlife or managed as moist soil units would be increased.
Public Use Opportunities: Under Alternative 1, No Action, the current Start Printed Page 52905levels of public use and visitor facility development would remain at each Refuge. Washita Refuge would continue to offer waterfowl and deer hunts and would maintain the Centennial Trail, and several other interpretive signs and visitor access parking areas. Optima Refuge would continue to offer upland game and deer archery hunts and passive recreation with extremely limited developed facilities. Under Alternative 2, both Refuges would be closed to the public. Under Alternative 3, the proposed action, Washita Refuge would evaluate additional hunt opportunities, develop a primitive hiking trail with interpretive signs, develop additional interpretive signage, and develop a visitor center on the Refuge administrative site. Optima Refuge would develop additional interpretive signage at existing parking areas. Curriculum materials and other educational and interpretive outreach resources would be developed and distributed to schools and other institutions in the towns surrounding each Refuge. Under Alternative 4, public use opportunities at both Refuges would be maximized. In addition to the programs and features proposed under Alternative 3, Washita NWR would develop additional vehicular access and parking areas, a canoe trail along the Washita River with parking at put-in and take-out points, and 5 miles of interpreted hiking trails. Optima NWR would develop two wildlife viewing platforms overlooking the Refuge and a marked hiking trail with interpretive signage.

MILWAUKEE -- A video posted on Facebook shows a Milwaukee police officer hitting a drunk driving suspect in the head while making an arrest.
The video was shot near Water Street in downtown Milwaukee. It was posted to Facebook Thursday evening, April 12th. It shows an officer holding a suspect to the ground during an arrest. The officer yells at the man to stop resisting -- and then strikes him at least twice in the head.
Late Friday afternoon, April 13th, the Milwaukee Police Department issued the following statement in relation to the incident:
- "Milwaukee police officers made an arrest of a suspected drunken driver Thursday night, April 12 at about 11 p.m. in the 200 block of E. Juneau Ave. The suspect, Jeffrey R. Strasser (4-29-1972), was cited for Operating a Vehicle While Intoxicated. The matter is under review for additional charges. A police sergeant observed a reckless driver at Water St. & Juneau Ave. operating a 2008 Lamborghini in a manner that posed a danger to the public in the Water Street area. The sergeant, in a marked police squad, activated his red lights and siren and attempted to stop the vehicle. Strasser refused to stop. Strasser was observed operating with no headlamps, disregarding a stop sign and endangering the public safety by operating the vehicle in a manner that forced other vehicles to take evasive action to avoid collision. As Strasser pulled into a parking lot, he nearly struck multiple pedestrians and uniformed police officers. Strasser eventually stopped and refused to exit the vehicle. Strasser was taken to the ground as officers removed him. One officer delivered focused strikes to gain compliance and control as Strasser was resisting attempts to place handcuffs on him. During the booking process, the 6'0, 200-pound suspect, in response to direct police questioning, stated he was not injured, had no complaint of pain and did not require medical attention. Strasser was placed under arrest and about 90 minutes after the traffic stop, was still more than twice the legal limit with a Blood Alcohol Content of .19. Strasser has a prior OWI conviction from 1999."
FOX6 News spoke with the head of the Fire and Police Commission, Mike Tobin, about the incident. Tobin would not go on camera but indicated he was aware of the video.
Tobin says as of right now, the Commission has not received any citizen complaints about the video. But he says Milwaukee police are examining the incident and the video. The Commission is also monitoring the police examination.
FOX6 News has also reached out to the man who posted the video on Facebook. He has not replied.
IMPORTANT: FOX6 News has blurred the faces of everyone in the video because no complaint has been filed in this incident.

Ashley Greene: I'll Miss My 'Twilight' Family
Ashley Greene talked to HollywoodLife.com about what she'll miss the most now that she's finished with the 'Twilight' saga.
Though Kristen Stewart may be eager to move on from vampires, Ashley Greene is sad to leave her Twilight character, Alice Cullen, behind. "She's probably one of the easiest characters I've ever had to play because I related to her on a lot of levels and I got to go to work everyday and be quirky and cheerful and happy," Ashley told HollywoodLife.com last night at the Young Hollywood Awards.
"She didn't really have a lot of sorrow and pain and wasn't too difficult," the YHA host continued. "I'll miss having that ease and being so comfortable with the character… and of course, the interaction with the rest of the cast."
After working so closely together over the course of four films, Ashley says that cast started to feel more like family than co-workers. "We kept saying it was kind of like high school because we kept going away for a couple months and coming back," she explains. "But the nice thing is that it's the end of the saga, but it's not the end of our friendship."
Are you excited to see Breaking Dawn Part 2?

text: Call From Consumer; Porcelain Tile So this guy calls me out of the blue,guess he saw my floorsavior site. Had 1,000 sf of 12x 12 porcelain tile installed over a slab that had an epoxy coating which was supposedly ground off.I'm not sure but I think he is kinda anal about the tile sticking. I found out through questioning the installer first set tile on the epoxy coating. Of course that didn't work so well. Plus he was not back coating the tiles.Then the installer pulls the tiles and grinds off all the coating. Sets tile, checks tile and the Ultraflex # 2 is still damp the next day.The consumer freaks out and pulls 1,000 sf of tile off the floor because he says the thinset is still damp underneath. Calls numerous tile people from around town and the Mapei rep.The Mapei rep says the tile is sufficiently bonded. Yet a water drop test says the slabs surface still is not free of epoxy as it does not penetrate into the surface within a couple minutes.Even in two to three days the guy says he can pop off a tile with just a screwdriver and a hammer. And the setting compound is still damp in the center.He now believes there is some sort of moisture issue with the slab. By now he has probably called the TCA. ha haI'm going there to do some F-2170 tests and look at the surface of the slab to see if it has been polished by the grinding and check csp. What do you think it is?.

In the wake of Thursday night's stunning victory in Oklahoma City, the Nets all said it wouldn't matter if they couldn't follow with another victory against the Cavaliers in Brooklyn on Saturday night.
After a season full of missed opportunities, the Nets didn't let this one slip through their fingers. They rode a strong defensive effort to an 89-80 victory in front of a sellout crowd of 17,732 at Barclays Center to begin a four-game homestand with a win.
"It was very important to validate it," said Joe Johnson, whose buzzer-beater won Thursday's game. "We went in and beat a tough Oklahoma City team and came back home, didn't relax, and were able to pull this one out."
The Cavaliers were without star point guard Kyrie Irving, and the Nets (12-21) did exactly what they should have done, holding Cleveland (11-22) to 36.7-percent shooting from the field. They nearly shut the Cavs down completely, outside of 26 points from Dion Waiters.
"I thought we just did a good job of defending," said Paul Pierce, who scored 17 points and passed Allen Iverson for 19th on the NBA's all-time scoring list. "You've got to be able to close games out that are close, especially at home. … That's what the good teams do."
The Nets, who now have their second winning streak of the season, were led by Deron William's 21 points and six assists, while Andray Blatche came off the bench with 12 points and five rebounds in 20 minutes in his first game back after missing the previous four for personal reasons.
"To come back and help the team get a win and start a winning streak felt good," Blatche said.
The Nets got off to a hot start, thanks to a very productive first quarter from Reggie Evans. Starting in place of Kevin Garnett (rest), Evans had eight points and six rebounds while playing almost the entire quarter, helping the Nets to a 22-17 lead. The Nets eventually went into halftime with a 51-38 lead.
"The guys came out with the same effort and energy that they did in Oklahoma, and the result was the same," coach Jason Kidd said. "Reggie stepped up big, being able to start and control the boards for us. He was also aggressive in the first quarter making some shots. … He was a big plus."
The Nets managed to give the entire halftime advantage back in the third quarter, however, as a combination of dreadful shooting (they went 3-for-13 overall and 2-for-7 from behind the arc, including missing several wide-open looks) and the bigger Cavs frontline abusing them on the boards (they outrebounded the Nets 13-4 in the quarter) allowed Cleveland to begin the third with a 23-7 run. The Cavs took a 61-58 lead on a 3-pointer by Dellavedova with 1:51 remaining in the quarter.
But the Nets responded by ending the third with a run of their own. A Mirza Teletovic 3-pointer capped the scoring and gave the Nets back the lead at 67-65 heading into the final quarter. They finally put the game away by opening the fourth with a 9-2 run.
"We know we didn't play well in the third quarter, but we didn't drop or give up in that quarter," Andrei Kirilenko said. "[But] we just kept playing."

That Reminds Me - Ogden Nash
Just imagine yourself seated on a shadowy terrace,
And beside you is a girl who stirs you more strangely than a heiress.
It is a summer evening at its most superb,
And the moonlight reminds you that To Love is an active verb,
And the stars are twinkling like anything,
And a distant orchestra is playing some sentimental old Vienna thing,
And your hand clasps hers, which rests there without shrinking,
And after a silence fraught with romance you ask her what she is thinking,
And she starts and returns from the moon-washed distances to the shadowy veranda,
And says, Oh, I was wondering how many bamboo shoots a day it takes to feed a baby Giant Panda.
Or you stand with her on a hilltop and gaze on a winter sunset
And everything is as starkly beautiful as a page from Sigrid Undset,
And your arm goes round her waist and you make an avowal which for masterfully marshaled emotional content might have been a page of Ouida's or Thackeray's,
And after a silence fraught with romance she says, I forgot to order the limes for the Daiquiris.
Or in twilight drawing room you have just asked the most momentous of questions,
And after silence fraught with romance she says, I think this little table would look better where that little table is, but then where would that little table go, have you any suggestions?
And that's the way they go round hitting below our belts;
It isn't that nothing is sacred to them, it's just that at the Sacred Moment they are always thinking of something else.

Your Turn: Dec. 3
Similar ability
Re: "3 women first to pass Marine infantry course," Another View, Nov. 26:
As a retired member of our military I read William Saletan's article on the successful completion of infantry training by three female marines.
Congratulations to them! They are obviously physically strong and well motivated. Inclusion of women into all specialties in the military is a coming thing. In my opinion, it is largely politically motivated.
Many of our high-ranking officers want to be considered politically correct and will push hard to achieve this total equality of the genders. Physical standards will be lowered as this movement gains momentum in order to increase the number of women who successfully complete some of the more rigorous training some specialties require. A good example of that is the different standards applied to cadets at West Point — female cadets are not held to the same physical standards as the males.
However, there is one aspect to this issue that is never mentioned in articles like Mr. Saletan's. That is that at times in combat the lives of fellow soldiers depend on the upper body strength of their comrades.
The citations for the last three individuals awarded the Medal of Honor included the fact that all of them physically carried wounded comrades to safety. I hope that future female combat soldiers also have that ability.

Bigger problem
When Ronald Reagan was president, he signed the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 giving amnesty and legal status to 3 million illegal immigrants. This was in exchange for increased border security and penalties for knowingly hiring illegal immigrants.
Those solutions weren't enforced or didn't work and 27 years later we have the same problem, but now with 11 million illegal immigrants.
Yet the proposed solution is the same. More border security and the use of things like e-Verify to determine U.S. citizenship.
Why should we again give relief with no hope of federal enforcement of our borders or laws?

Re: "The other half," Your Turn, Nov. 25:
I am responding to Ms. Hooge's opinion that conservatives are clueless and lacking in compassion toward people on Medicaid.
If a person has a job where they can't take sick leave why did they make an appointment in the first place? If they can't or couldn't make their appointment, why can't they at least call or reschedule? This might allow another Medicaid patient to utilize that time slot.
This isn't about conservatives lacking compassion or "not getting it." It's about expecting the minority of Medicaid patients who are irresponsible to start using some common sense and common courtesy so that all Medicaid patients can benefit.

Confessions of A Jam Cruise Maven
In case you havent been paying attention or didnt get the memo, Jam Cruise is the best thing going. My aunt, a travel agent in Connecticut, asked me the other day how our cruise went and if our sales were down due to the economy, as she was having grave difficulty selling travel packages. Um, sorry to burst your bubble Pris, but our 2800 passenger event sold out over the summer.
Jam Cruise 7, on board the MSC Orchestra, set sail at capacity on January 4, 2009 for 5 days headed for paradise. We returned to Ft Lauderdale different people.
Every year, I come home and people ask, So, how was it?? It was the best yet. The thing is that I say that every year. And its true. We have built this next level specialness (yes thats a real quote) that you HAVE to experience for yourself.
Craig Klein, trombone player for Bonerama, sent me an email on Facebook, I'm not sure, but I think it changed my life. Theres no question, Craig!
Day and night, sun and fun with your favorite jambands all on a luxury cruise line. The musicianship is over the top, the friendships that are made last a lifetime, the occurrence itself is the most unique out there. Working 20 hours a day for 5 days in a row doesnt even seem like work because I have mastered how to have fun as well. People came up to me, hey Julie (my alias on board is Julie McCoy from The Love Boat), I saw you rocking the f**k out at the New Deal last night. AWESOME. Hellllooooo, how could I NOT?
I have worked as the marketing director of Cloud 9 Adventures selling Jam Cruise to the masses for 6 years. At some point, the market has been saturated. You all KNOW what Jam Cruise is and are curious about it. The best marketing tools we have are our passengers. Just ask ANYONE who has come on before, they will convince you to join them.
Now, I know we are in a recession; its a tough time for everyone. But there needs to one luxury you allow yourself. Jam Cruise seems to be that pleasurable expense for people. I am honored, thrilled, excited and so much more. Not just because that means I get to keep my job, but also because I KNOW HOW GREAT THIS EVENT IS. People come up to me all week long on board and thank me for all my hard work while they have the time of their lives. Obviously, I graciously respond, but honestly, I usually say to them, I know, isnt Jam Cruise the COOLEST?
My brother-in law, Brian, came on for the first time. He and my husband Peter had a conversation about the fluidity of Jam Cruiseif you want to see a show, see a show. If you want to take a nap, take a nap. If you want to swim in the pool, swim in the pool. If you want to skip dinner and drink, you can do that too. If you want to go up to someone youve never met before and start a conversation, its encouraged. Life is so structured, Jam Cruise is truly about what you want to, when you want to do it. Its a true vacation from the confines of our daily lives. Most of us are grown-ups now: have 9-5 jobs, kids, responsibilities, bills to pay, places to be, demands to meet. But on Jam Cruise, you can let go and be whoever you want to be. The biggest freaks I find on board are accountants, lawyers, and others with time consuming, high-pressured jobs. On Jam Cruise, you are FREE.
Now lets touch on the cross-pollination that the musicians experience. Over the years, a lot of the bands have played together, wanted to play together or just wished they could hang out all day and catch up with each other. Theyll get to a festival and miss each other by two hours, or they play the day after, or when they DO catch each other, one band has to leave to drive 10 hours to the next gig. On Jam Cruise, those restrictions dont exist. Bands decide to go on tour together, future albums are made, new heights are reached, and inspirational moments are common. Numerous times, I saw artists from different bands eating lunch or having a drink together. I had to go up to them and say, You two dont get to do this often, do you? I spend so much time with all of them as bands that I want to sit there and listen to the individuals get to know each other better. Instead, I make that comment, smile big, and let them be, knowing that I had a big part in bringing them together.
So my column wouldnt be complete with a photo gallery and captions so here you go:
Editor's note: Here are some of Annabel's Jam Cruise images, which she has passed along this month to give a sense of her perspective on the events…
Now, I probably shouldnt be posting this publically, but its too great not to. Here, Joe Russo and Darren Shearer are reacting when I told him what was really in those hot tubs after 5 days of hippies and not being serviced.
Heres to Jam Cruise 7 the best yet. And heres to Jam Cruise 8 the best yet-to be. We are already hundreds deep in pre-books for our 2010 adventure. Please take my word, take your friends words, take the musicians words, come on Jam Cruise at least once. www.jamcruise.com will give you all the details. Until next time…

Andy Cates skippered the trip. He said he had 24 anglers who fished hard in water holding at 75 degrees. He also noted the approach of spring in the islands.
We had an awesome show on jumping humpback whales, he remarked to dock reporter Bill Roecker.
Valene Garrison fished with her hubby John Whitley. The couple are from Half Moon Bay. Valenes weighed 257.2 pounds and won first place. She said it fought for 35 minutes and took her around the boat twice. It was her second cow and best fish ever.
A salami mackerel on a 10/0 Mustad 7691 hook proved fatal to the tuna, and she pulled it in with 130-pound Blackwater fluorocarbon, 130-pound Line One spectra backing on an Accurate ATD 50 topless reel and a Calstar 760 H rod.
John Dixon of Redondo Beach roped a 237 and a 232-pound tuna, his first cows ever. He said they came on mackerel baited on 9/0 7691 hooks on 130-pound Seaguar Premier fluorocarbon and 130-pound Tuffline spectra on an Accurate ATD 50 reel and a Phenix 3X seven-foot rod. They bigger one won second place and came aboard in 35 minutes, said Dixon.
Martin Papa Gomez of El Monte won third place for his 227.4-pounder. His 14-year-old daughter Monica was there to see it all. She said she was surprised to see that tuna had red blood and not blue, as she has assumed was common to all fish.
Gomez got his winner with a salami on a 9/0 Mustad 7691 hook. He used 130-pound pink Yo-Zuri leader, 130-pound blue Izorline and 130-pound Line One spectra on a Penn 50 reel and a Calstar 7465 H rod.
Richard Karron on Florida caught a 226.8-pounder. He wasnt available for interview.
Greg Winfree had to fly home early, and wasnt at the dock, but he caught three cows: 205, 209 and 209 pounds.
Chris Minnick of Pasadena took a 208.6 and a 199.4-pound tuna. He said he used mackerel on a 10/0 Gamakatsu hook on 130-pound Seaguar Premier fluorocarbon and 130-pound Line One spectra, with an Accurate ATD 50 reel and a super Seeker 2 x 4 rod. Chris said his fish came to the boat in 15 minutes.
Ben Kita of LA has numerous 300-pound tuna to his credit, all on the Rooster. On this trip he produced a 206.4-pounder, it was discovered at the end of the weigh-in.

According to information provided at HowStuffWorks, a spy plane such as the ones the United States employs works by catching stray transmissions, such as email and telephone calls, processes them and sends them back to the officers at base to be used. This information is captured with dishes and antennas equipped on the plane.Continue Reading
One model of spy plane is the EP-3E, which is equipped with a radome, a device that interacts with radar waves while transparent to them. Inside of the radome is the radar antennae, which is what interacts with radar frequencies. Most of the plane's other equipment is classified, giving the public very little other information about it.
Twelve planes created by Lockheed-Martin were converted into spy planes in the 1990s. These planes were made into EP-3E planes to replace aging models that could not be used in modern situations. These planes are hefty vehicles, equipped with a crew of over 20 and pulled through the air by four propellers. Each of these planes is equipped with the information retrieval equipment needed for the on-board crew to interpret and send back data to their home airfield. Although they are larger planes than jets or single-manned planes, they do not come equipped with weaponry.Learn more about Military

Hi all my fans. It's been quite a while since I last posted, but I haven't had any wins as of yet this month to share with you all. I get down when I don't win and have been entering like mad over the last few weeks so I'm hoping I'll get a win very soon.
I have been very fortunate over the last couple of years to win some amazing prizes, but I do get slightly annoyed when I see the same people winning all the time. But hey, everyone has a chance and it's all down to luck.
I've also been really busy over the last few months helping administer a FB competition page and website. The links can be found on my page and both sites have UK competitions that are Free to Enter. Some good news is that we will be featured very soon on another Blog site so hopefully will get some more traffic coming our way. Competitions 4 Free Free Competitions
On another note, don't forget to check to see if your a winner using Google Social Search.
It's simple to use and you can use it to search specific terms like "winner janet jackson" "congratulations annie lennox" etc. You can search FB, Twitter, Google and more to see if you've won and search by date or relevence. I found a win last month using this that I hadn't been emailed about.
Til next time, good luck!!
Leanne x
My name is Leanne Abel. Welcome to my world of comping. I started entering competitions in March 2012 after reading a feature in the newspaper about people who win lots of prizes. I decided to give it a go, and with nothing to lose I set off on my journey and have never looked back! I have won some great prizes during this time including £1000 from Capital FM, a £550 Mountain Bike, KitchenAid Mixer, Dishwasher and lots of smaller wins like Dvd's, Kitchenware and Jewellery. I hope you enjoy!

* Q2 GDP up 3.0 pct vs prior est of 2.6 pct
* August ADP data shows biggest monthly increase in 5 months
* H&R Block down after bigger-than-expected quarterly loss
* Indexes up: Dow 0.01 pct, S&P 0.05 pct, Nasdaq 0.30 pct (Updates to open)
By Sruthi Shankar and Tanya Agrawal
Aug 30 (Reuters) - The S&P and the Dow opened little changed on Wednesday as investors focused on data that showed stronger-than-expected U.S. economic growth, helping offset worries over President Donald Trump's latest tweet on North Korea.
Gross domestic product increased at a 3.0 percent rate in the April-June period, the Commerce Department said in its second estimate.
The upward revision in the second-quarter data from the 2.6 percent pace reported last month reflected robust consumer spending as well as strong business investment.
Adding to the positive sentiment, a report from payroll processor ADP showed that U.S. private employers added 237,000 jobs in August for its biggest monthly increase in five months, above the 183,000 jobs expected by economists.
The strong data could strengthen the Federal Reserve's case for another rate hike this year.
Chances of a rate hike rose to 37 percent from 32 percent after the data, according to CME Group's FedWatch tool.
The ADP report comes ahead of the more comprehensive government payrolls data for August on Friday.
Investors are also keeping an eye out on the ongoing tensions between the United States and North Korea after Trump dismissed any diplomatic negotiations with North Korea, saying "talking is not the answer," a day after Pyongyang fired a ballistic missile over Japan.
The "U.S. has been talking to North Korea, and paying them extortion money, for 25 years. Talking is not the answer," Trump tweeted on Wednesday.
"We suspect the North Korea problem, although not yet causing a rush to exit will eventually take a negative toll on the markets," said Peter Cardillo, chief market economist at First Standard Financial.
Also on the radar is Trump's first speech specifically on tax policy later in the day. The speech, officials said, would be about "why" reforming the tax code was needed, not about "how" to reform it.

Jodhpur accommodation - Umaid Bhawan Palace
Umaid Bhawan Palace
Set in vast gardens and grounds the Umaid Bhawan Palace is a Jodhpur landmark that can be seen from miles around. It was the last of the great palaces to be built in India, a project created by the maharaja of Jodhpur to provide employment for his impoverished and drought stricken people for 15 years, from 1928-1943. Designed by the British Edwardian architect, Lanchester, and conceived on a massive scale, it is a combination of eastern Rajput and western Art Deco styles that flaunts power and luxury.
With 347 rooms this was one of the largest private residences in the world, and the ex-maharaja still retains his own private wing and grounds. Everything about the property represents grandeur and elegance, with large hallways, high ceilings and marble staircases that lead to 64 luxurious rooms and suites. Each has a view over the gardens and is Art Deco inspired, furnished with heavy brocades, thick rugs and period furniture, while having the latest modern amenities.
The wood panelled Trophy Bar and lovely colonnaded veranda are ideal for an aperitif before dinner. Indian and continental cuisine prepared to recipes from the royal kitchen is served in Risala, where life size portraits of the maharajas gaze down at diners, while international grilled dishes are taken al fresco at Sunset Pavillion. There are also many wonderful quiet spots for private dining.
Other facilities include both indoor and outdoor swimming pools, tennis courts, a health club and Jiva Spa.

Kristen Stewart may have been reading blogs between the "Twilight Saga: Eclipse" South Korea photocall and premiere because she made a much better effort second time around at the Premiere today in Seoul.
The star wore a black Prabal Gurung Fall 2010 long sleeved mini shimmering dress which was worn with a wide leather belt and Jimmy Choo 'Quiet' black open-toe sandals.
I really like this look, even though a pop of colour would have been welcomed.
She proves that she can look comfortable on the red carpet once the look suits her laid back/non-fussy style.
UK fans will be disappointed to know that Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner will not be attending the London premiere of the "Twilight Saga: Eclipse".
The lead stars of the hit teen vampire movies will instead send video messages to the red carpet event on July 1.
Ashley Greene, Kellan Lutz and Nikki Reed will attend the London premiere instead.

NebraskaReviewed By Daniel Kelly
Posted 12/09/13 05:25:19
It's nothing new to cite an upcoming Alexander Payne picture as worth anticipating, but "Nebraska" isn't quite the pure experience cinephiles have come to cherish. Payne is behind the lens for this excursion into a rural and forgotten pasture of modern American history, but the screenplay is credited to Bob Nelson, a notable detour given Payne's usual authorial presence. "Election, "Sideways" and "The Descendants" all succeeded on the back of their creator's controlled, touching and natural grasp of everyday drama; rendering "Nebraska" a strange anomaly. After viewing this restrained and masterful feature it's easy to understand why Payne agreed to helm; Nelson's story a near perfect fit for the director's sensibility. It also allows Payne another chance to exhibit his talents for casting and sustaining creative dynamism with actors, drawing wonderful turns from a bevy of thespians, most notably a feisty yet vulnerable Bruce Dern.Having received a letter from a company in Lincoln naming him as the winner of a $1,000,000 sweepstake, aged and alcohol dependant Woody Grant (Bruce Dern) is insistent upon collecting the dough. His wife (played sublimely by June Squibb) and kids are adamant it's a hoax, preventing Woody from making the journey, until younger son David (Will Forte) capitulates and agrees to take him. Saddling up for a weekend road-trip the pair venture into the heartland of Woody's youth, encountering faces and places from across the expanse of his lengthy life. Woody remains focused on retrieving the spoils, but for David the expedition gifts him insights into his ancestry that prove shocking, educational and illuminating.
Drenched in nostalgic black and white cinematography, "Nebraska" is a film about the past, setting out its stall early with the appearance of a dated Paramount logo. Nelson's screenplay provides viewers with a beautiful synergy of character, locale and experience in its exploration of one man's life, depicting a richly detailed tapestry of 20th century Americana in the process. Everything in the film's mise-en-scene (including its star) harks back to a bygone era, filling "Nebraska" with roving countryside, traditional printing presses, retro vehicles and a sense of male stoicism no longer fashionable. The feature finds particular interest in contrasting Dern and Forte's characters, charting clear differences between generational divides. One's a doer the other's a considerate talker, a notion explored both through comedy (the natives of Woody's home find it hysterical how long David takes to drive places) and drama. It's the latter that feels most rewarding come the film's end, as David slowly manages to fathom an understanding of his father's upbringing, finding small justifications for his drinking and churlish behaviour. "Nebraska" never feels the need to spell much out for the viewer, but measured acting and moments of gorgeous clarity provide ample windows into the souls of its characters.
Dern is mesmerizing, bringing distinguished physicality and tangible personality to the lead. Bit parts in films like "The Hole" and "Django Unchained" have formed the backbone of his recent filmography, but here at age 77, he still proves capable of carrying a heavy drama on his shoulders. Despite Woody's antagonistic and stubborn attitude, Dern manages to inject real weakness into the figure's frame, both through limping movements and a refusal to take full responsibility for his family's troubles. It's a turn that lends itself both gracefully to laughs and moments of introspective awe, Forte's solid work on the fringes helping to eke out all the pathos possible. Forte is a former SNL goofball more renowned for work on comedies like "MacGruber" and "That's My Boy", but here accelerates into sterling dramatic gear, measuredly supporting Dern's magnificent work without attempting to steal any thunder, It's a slight, skilled and very generous example of the craft.
Much of the feature unfolds in Woody's old stomping grounds, allowing Payne to cook a phenomenal community spirit into the production, trapping the whole experience in some sort of 70s wormhole. The film-maker bookends the feature in a more identifiably modern sphere, but the backwoods relatives, trashy boozers and scheming locals that populate "Nebraska" further cement its potential for reflection, rooting the narrative 30 years into the past. Of course the very catalyst for the story (the sweepstake, referred to as the "oldest trick in the book" by a bemused David) concocts a wistful agenda from the start, but the movie's style and engaging dramatic nuances are the real reason "Nebraska" develops into such a captivating work of retrospection. Maybe it's a love-letter to the evocative and tortured drama 1970s Hollywood became saturated with, or a throwback to Nelson's Midwestern heritage, but either way the movie is deeply affecting and faultlessly illustrated.The father/ son facet takes centre stage come the finish, but that's justifiable given the contributions made by Dern and Forte. With its enchanting musical score and striking photographic aesthetic, "Nebraska" is a convincing reminiscence on the surface alone, but Nelson's serene writing and the quality of performance underline it as one of 2013's most accomplished and distinctive cinematic journeys. Fans of Alexander Payne need not fear, this is another meaningful addition to his triumphant back catalogue. [A]

The most famous family of bears since, well, "The Three Bears" of Goldilocks fame, The Berenstain Bears made the first transition from print to screen in a series of primetime specials during the 70's. In 1985, Hanna-Barbera and its Australian subsidiary, Southern Star, adapted the popular children's book series into a weekly Saturday morning series for CBS which lasted 18 months from September 1985-March 1987. In 2003, the Bears returned in an all-new series produced by Canada's Nelvana for PBS, which might still be on the air on some PBS stations (check listings).
Following is a sample episode, "Too Much Birthday":
It's the best way I can think of to honor the memory of co-creator Jan Berenstain, who passed away over the weekend at 88 from a stroke.
