A woman ended up in

jail after police discovered marijuana hidden inside of a children’s toy during a traffic stop.

Kristy Sheppard, 38, of Wewoka, was charged with driving under the influ-

ence, improper driving on a divided highway, no valid driver’s license, possession of a controlled and danger-ous substance and posses-sion of paraphernalia.

Recently, Seminole County Deputy Ashley Wooten was driving on Highway 59 and noticed a white SUV crossing the

centerline. Wooten pulled behind the vehicle and acti-vated the emergency lights and sirens.

According to Wooten’s incident report, before she reached the vehicle, both occupants jumped out.

Wooten advised Central Dispatch of her location then proceeded to get out

of her police unit when a female subject stated she was driving and there was something wrong with her left front tire.

She informed the two occupants to return to the vehicle for safety reasons. When Wooten approached the vehicle to speak with them, she allegedly smelled

a strong odor of burnt m a r i j u a n a and grape omitting from the vehicle.

W o o t e n went to the driver’s side and asked the driver for her license

and insurance information as well as the male subject’s identification.

He stated he did not have one, so Wooten took his name and birth date to verify his information and he was ID’d as Raymond Sheppard. The driver was identified as Kristy and both

Rhino Riders Routed to JailAngela Downing

City Editor A recent increase of

stolen Yamaha Rhino’s has officers on the lookout for them and the alleged thieves who stole them.

Israel Harjo, 19, of Wewoka and Trenton Akins, 21, of Wewoka, were arrested for receiving/possession/conceal ing stolen property. Harjo was also charged with posses-sion of a controlled and dangerous substance fol-lowing a traffic stop.

Just after 3 a.m. on Thursday, Aug. 18 Semi-nole County Deputy Matt Haley was driving east on Highway 270. As he passed Old Highway 270, he observed a green Yamaha Rhino at the inter-section. He noticed a head-light out on the Rhino and

that it began to drive on the shoulder.

A Yamaha Rhino is clas-sified as a recreational util-ity vehicle with two seats in the front and small truck bed in the back.

Haley stated in the report due to the high number of thefts of Rhinos

in the area and that it was early morning, he initiated a traffic stop.

Haley approached the driver and explained why he was being stopped. He asked both occupants for identification. They both told Haley they did not

Enviro CEO Provides Insight Into Timing

Of Announcement About Charter School

Two Area Banks Name New Presidents

(Editor’s note: The follow-ing is information provided by Paul Campbell, CEO of Enviro Systems, Inc., regarding the announce-ment made earlier this week about a new charter school in Seminole).

Q: Why are you trying to put a charter school in Seminole?

I work for a high tech aerospace manufacturer that is growing at a rapid rate and needs to add a significant amount of jobs in

the next few years. While most of our incred-

ible workforce are born and raised Okies, we still cannot find enough talent locally to support our growth and must seek employees out-side our area.

We were frustrated with hearing from potential employees that they would love to work for us, but didn’t want to live in this area because of the turmoil surrounding the local school system.

I think it’s important to point out that this has NOTHING to do with the teachers or professional educators. I have been impressed with their sophis-tication and passion. It has to do with the fact that we don’t have a united board that can work together and drive the educational improvements we need for our community.

So we began in earnest late last year to work with the local school districts.

We asked several key leaders within the school districts to work with us and unfortunately we could not get on the same page with the Seminole School District. We weren’t asking for a new facility on a site or pressuring for a central campus.

We don’t have a dog in that fight. We just wanted the board to unite, work together, and we would be there to support and help

What It Was, Was FootballSince football season

officially got underway this weekend across Seminole County, I figured we were due for a good football story.

No one tells a story quite like the late, great Andy Griffith, so I managed to find the transcript to one of his classic recordings released in 1953.

Sit back in your favorite chair and enjoy this home-spun tale of a country boy witnessing his first football game.

If you’re like me, you’ll “hear” Andy’s twangy voice and humorous inflections as you read along.

By Andy GriffithIt was back last October, I believe it was. We was a-goin’

t hold a tent service in this college town.And we got thar about dinnertime on Saturday and differ-

ent ones of us thought we ought to get us a mouthful to eat before that we set up the tent.

And so, we got down off of the truck and followed this little bunch of people through this small little bitty patch of woods.

And we come up on a big sign, says “Get somethin’ to eat here!’

And I went up and got me two hot dogs and a big Orange drink.

And before I could take ary mouthful of that food this whole raft of people come up around me and got me to where I couldn’t eat nothin’ up like and I dropped my big Orange drink. I did!

Well friends, they commenced to move and they wasn’t so much I could do except to move with ‘em.

Well, we commenced to go through all kinds of doors and gates and I don’t know what all, and I looked up over one of ‘em and it says “North Gate,” and we kept on a-goin’ through there, and pretty soon we come up on a young boy.

And he says “Ticket, please,” and I says. “Friend, I don’t have a ticket. I don’t even know where it is that I’m a-goin’.” I did!

Well he says “Come out as quick as you can.”And I says “Ill do ‘er. I’ll turn around the first chance I

get.”Well, we kept on a-movin’ through there and pretty soon

everyone got where it was that they was a-goin’ because they parted and I could see pretty good. I could!

And what I seen was this whole raft a people a-settin’ on these two banks and a-lookin’ at one another acrosst this purty little green cow pasture! Well, they was!

And somebody had took and drawed white lines all over it and drove posts in it and I don’t know what all!

And I looked down there and I seen five or six convicts a-runnin’ up and down and a-blowin’ whistles! They was!

And then I looked down there and I seen these pretty girls a-wearin’ these little bitty short dresses and a-dancin’ around, an so I set down and thought I’d see what it was that was a-gonna happen. I did!

And about the time I got set down good, I looked down there and I seen thirty or forty men come a-runnin’ out of one end of a great big outhouse down there! They did!

An everybody where I was a-settin’ got up and hollered!And about that time thirty or forty come a-runnin out of

the other end of that outhouse and the other bank full THEY got up and hollered!

An I asked this feller that was a-settin’ beside me, I says “Friend, what is it that they’re a-hollerin’ for?”

Well he whopped me on the back and he says, “Buddy, have a drink!”

Well, I says, “I believe I will have another big Orange.”An I got it and set back down. An when I got back down

there again, I seen that them men had got in two little bitty bunches down there.

They had real close together--and they voted! They did!They voted and elected one man apiece. And them two

men come out in the middle of that cow pasture and shook hands like they hadn’t seen one another in a long time.

And then a convict come over to where they was a-stan-din’ an he took out a quarter and they commenced to odd-man right there! They did!

Well, after a while I seen what it was that they was a-odd-mannin’ for.

It was that both bunches-full of them men wanted this funny-lookin’, little punkin to play with! They did, and I know friends that they couldn’t-a eat it cause they kicked it the whole evenin’ and it never busted!

But anyhow what I was a-tellin’ was that both bunches-full wanted that thang and one bunch got it an it made the other bunch just as mad as they could be and friends I seen that evenin’ the awfullest fight that I’d ever seen in my life! I did!

They would run at one another and kick one another and throw one another down and stomp on one another and grind their feet in one another and I don’t know what all!

And just as fast as one would get hurt they’d tote him off and run an othern on!

Well, they done that as long as I set there but pretty soon this boy that had said “ticket, please,” he come up to me and he says, “Friend, you’re gonna have to leave because it is that you don’t have a ticket.”

And I says “Well, alright” an I got up an left. An I don’t know, friends, until this day what it was that

they was a-doin’ down there, but I have studied about it, and I think its some kindly of a contest where they see which bunch-full of them men can take that punkin an run from one end of that cow pasture to the othern without either getting’ knocked down er steppin’ in somethin’!

Steve SaxonSeminole City Manager

I have offered an apol-ogy to every one of my city council members for the letter of support for the prospective charter school written on City of Seminole letterhead. The City Council did not approve this support letter.

I want also to apologize to the hard working teach-ers for any misunderstand-ing they took from the letter of support. The letter was intended to point out that our teachers are handcuffed by bureaucracy, tests, and funding. It was NOT intended to be an indictment of teacher performance.

I have several missions going at once. But, right now I have 3 on the top of my list.

1. Get a new school at a new location for Seminole Public Schools.

2. Save the current and future jobs. Especially those jobs located at our highest paying employer.

3. Get more housing in Seminole.

You will notice that I have neither listed charter school nor is it on any “list of things to do”.

If you care to know where I was coming from: About 3

years ago our local indus-tries had tours for all the teachers of Seminole. The mission was to reveal to teachers the job skills their students would be asked to perform.

We had great feedback from many teachers. Most had no idea their students would be asked to know those things on day one of a job. Many were moti-vated to make changes in the way they conducted their classroom instruction. Here is the PROBLEM. With so many state and federal mandates, tests, performance measures and reporting requirements there is almost NO room for anything that might be con-sidered “real world”.

Add to that the policy-crazed school board, disci-pline problems and no fund-ing and you get paralyzed teachers.

November 2015, these industries and many more came to the school board meeting and practically begged them to build a new school. The answer was basically, “Get Lost”.

Over the following weeks, individual meetings were held to convince school board members that the situation was getting critical. Most of the companies were

having trouble getting tal-ented employees and were desperate.

A new school at a new location was one of few things needed to recruit families. You guessed it; “GET LOST” was the effec-tive answer. Soon after those meetings the news-paper published the school board member saying about a prominent company, “watch those people in case anything goes missing.”

The companies could see this was going nowhere. Private industries don’t do “helpless”. They solve problems or they die. In this case they found a solution in a charter school.

They have taken dozens of community members on charter school tours and they feel this will help them recruit talented engineers to our community. The paper reported this last Decem-ber. Then again in March I believe with the Charter’s non-profit being established. The charter school shouldn’t have been a surprise.

I believe with all my heart that Seminole is an amaz-ing place. I have seen what happens when we all work together. But no matter what I apologize to the City Council and Teachers of Seminole for any angst my

letter caused.

What a way to start the season.

What a way to resume a long rivalry.

It took a goal-line stand by Wewoka to stop the Seminole Chieftains on fourth down and goal from the one yard-line with 28 seconds to go to preserve a 21-16 Tigers’ victory at Chieftain Stadium Friday night.

The two teams hadn’t played since 2007 and Wewoka hadn’t beaten Seminole since 1993.

“They just out-executed us down on the goal line,” Seminole Head Coach Mike Snyder said. “When you’re first and goal inside the five, you gotta score and we didn’t.”

Wewoka Head Coach Tommy Bare was able to

keep it in perspective, even though his body language as time ran out said other-wise.

“It was big, not doubt about it,” Bare said. “Big for this team and this town (Wewoka).

“Was it the greatest vic-tory of my career? I don’t know, but it ranks right up there.”

Bare had won only one other game in four tries when going against a Mike Snyder-coached team (in 2007) when Bare was head coach at Hugo.

The game, which lasted some three hours, was hard fought and close the whole way.

Seminole held an 8-7 lead after the first quarter and Wewoka led at halftime 15-8.

The Chieftains entered the fourth quarter leading 16-15, but the Tigers scored

with 8:26 remaining in the game when Kenan Loggins hit the end zone from five yards out.

The two-point conversion attempt failed and the Tigers had a 21-16 edge.

After the Chieftains’ next drive was snuffed out by a Tigers interception, Wewoka took over but couldn’t run out the clock and had to punt to Seminole with 4:37 left.

Seminole marched down the field as senior quar-terback Logan Long engi-neered the late drive.

Freshman running back Cameron Gunville ran for 10 yards to set up the Chief-tains with first and goal at Wewoka’s four yard-line with 1:49 remaining.

Seminole ran four running plays, but couldn’t punch the ball in. The last attempt, out of the “Pistol Offense,” with Gunville taking the snap

from center, was stopped cold by the Tigers.

Wewoka then ran out the clock and the victory was assured for the Tigers.

Penalties played a big part in the game. A per-sonal-foul facemask call against the Chieftains sustained Wewoka’s final touchdown drive.

And an earlier rough-ing-the-punter penalty against Seminole was key to another Tigers’ scoring drive.

Seminole was flagged seven times in the game for 50 yards and Wewoka was penalized 16 time for 98 yards.

Wewoka jumped out in front when quarterback Kaden Boswell hit Lovell Reynolds for a short touch-down pass to take a 7-0 lead.

Seminole came back and scored on Gunville’s run off

left tackle with 4:03 to go in the first quarter to take an 8-7 advantage.

Boswell scored on a five-yard run in the second quarter to give Wewoka its halftime lead.

Seminole recovered a Wewoka fumble in the third quarter and went ahead on sophomore Jamon Dennis’ two-yard touchdown run with 3:57 left in the third quarter.

“I’m so proud of our kids. We suited up 31 players for the game and they had 60 or so, but our team played hard and never gave up.”

Snyder singled out Wewoka’s quarterback (Boswell) for his fine play.

“They athletic ability really showed,” Snyder said. “It was a tough loss to say the least, but we’ll just have to regroup and move on.”

Seminole was hurt by two injuries on defense.

Preston Flynt suffered an ankle injury in the first half and didn’t return and fresh-man Cepado Wilkins went out with a knee injury in the third quarter.

Leg cramps hampered both teams.

A New NameFor Durant?

Oklahoma City Thunder fans were understandably upset when Kevin Durant announced his decision to sign with the Golden State Warriors on July 4, going so far as to even burn his jersey.

One fan, though, decided to take even more drastic action this week. Ryan Nazari of Edmond, Oklahoma created a Change.org petition asking for 1,000 online signatures to try to get the city of Durant, Oklahoma, changed to West-brook, Oklahoma, in honor of guard? Russell Westbrook, who signed a contract exten-sion with the Thunder earlier this month.

In an attempt to muster up support for the cause, Nazari wrote:

“Ladies and gentlemen, the great state of Oklahoma

has been betrayed. As many of you know, Kevin Durant has left our state, torn out our hearts, and left our beloved Oklahoma City Thunder in depleted shape.

“All of this after even being offered a cabinet position for the State of Oklahoma. It is because of this heinous action that I believe the State of Oklahoma has a responsibil-ity to change the name of the City of Durant to Westbrook, the man who is loyal, whom we believe in, and who will lead our team to glory.

“Yes, it is understood that the city Durant was not named after the evil Kevin Durant, but it is just another hideous reminder of what happened to our community.”

As of 10:10 p.m. ET Thurs-day, the petition was just 45

Making New Friends With GracieSnuggle time -- every

morning -- I love having snuggle time with Gracie! But that snuggle time gets some of her smell on me. Hopefully the people in my life can’t smell her but for sure other dogs can. We all know that dogs have a keen sense of smell, even the snub-nose dogs like Grace.

So yesterday when I was walking around Mag-nolia Lake, I met a new four legged friend who had taken her human out for a walk. Sophie was sniffing every tall blade of grass and every light pole checking who might have wandered by earlier in the morning.

As I approached these two (dog and human) I said, “Hello.”

That was all it took. Sophie’s head was up, she was giving me the eye - was I friend or foe? Then when I put the back of my hand down where she could smell me, I proceeded to get the sniff over. I’m certain that she could smell Gracie on me and our friendship began.

But the interesting thing is so did a conversation with Sophie’s human. A conver-sation of struggles and joys, a story of life itself. Prayers were shared by two people who at one side of the lake

were strangers, but now were friends -- all because we were introduced by a dog.

That conversation, that moment of real, deep shar-ing was the highlight of my day. All because of a

dog which I sometimes am reminded jokingly is God spelled backwards. But this time, this time I do believe it was God that brought us together, that moment, that day for whatever reason.

May you too be blessed with the surprise of a God moment, because you never know how that intro-duction will occur!

How Can We Teach People to be Good?A Good Education

—by Chris Stinnett Robert Coles is a psy-

chiatrist, Pulitzer Prize-win-ning author and emeritus professor at Harvard. One of his many books is titled, “The Moral Education of

Children,” and includes a story of a brilliant young coed at Harvard. The young woman was trying to work her way through Harvard by cleaning the rooms of her fellow students and she was shocked by their cruelty and crudity toward her.

In disgust, she quit her job

and started to quit Harvard. In an interview with Coles, she raged against the elite students who assumed intelligence granted them exemption from morals. She asked Coles a critical ques-tion: “How do you teach people to be good?”

Kevin Ryan wrote a brief history of moral education in America and showed that for almost 300 years, the goal of public education was to train young people to be moral beings: to reject lying, cheating, stealing, to embrace self-discipline, honor, integrity, fairness, cooperation and, yes, sexual purity.

Because most morality is based in religious teach-ing, Ryan concluded that the diverse religious atmo-sphere of the U.S. after World War 2 made it inevi-table that a shared morality be replaced by competing

values or none at all. So today, most public schools would be horrified at the suggestion that they teach morals—while they carefully leave a vacuum of values.

Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God. But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God’s holy people (Ephesians 5:1-3 NIV).

So now the kiddos are going back to school after summer vacation and they are applying themselves to English, history, mathemat-ics, chemistry and so on. But how do you teach people to be good? And how will young people learn to live

like human beings instead of the violent and promis-cuous animals they see in the movies? Well, there is really only One who can teach us what is good, isn’t there? And for young people to learn goodness, they must hear the words from Scripture, but also see the example in their parents.

How can we teach people to be good? Only by being good for ourselves, so that our words will carry weight.

Education is important, but no society can survive by producing well-educated thugs. While students are headed back to school to learn skills, they also need to head to the church build-ing to learn what it means to be a human being. And all around them they need examples of honor, integrity and goodness to show them how the words take on life every day. That’s a good education.

A Religious EditorialBy Chris StinnettBy Chris Stinnett

Making the Decision to Become a ChristianEven though Jesus did

not have sins to repent of, he was baptized, being immersed in the Jordan River, by John the Baptist to be an example for us. As John preached to the people to repent and be baptized, people were “assured of the pardon of their sins, and their baptism sealed to them a gracious and pleadable discharge from the guilt of sin,” as Matthew Henry dis-cussed it from the chapter of Luke. Henry’s commentar-ies, published in 1710, are still revered today and are readily accessible online.

At 19, I attended a revival and remember submitting to a Christian life and couldn’t wait to seal my fate in this decision by being baptized. It was weeks away and I waited anxiously, praying nothing would happen to me before I made public my decision.

An employee at the Blue Bell office while my future husband was in Viet Nam, I would later share with him and anybody who listen to me, my convictions. Before I was totally immersed in the baptistery at an Oklahoma City church campground on Sooner Road, I gave my testimony to an audience of over a thousand. I felt this important step in my life would better prepare me also for my future as a wife and mother.

Forty-nine years later, I still remember that day when

my sins were washed away. Now, I realize that expe-riencing a public baptism strengthens new Christians at the beginning of their newly committed lives. If they just repent and aren’t baptized, it becomes easier to slip back into the old ways. (I know there are exceptions, as was the thief on the cross and others whose circum-stances made baptism in water impossible.) After all, just seeing one go to the altar does not necessarily reveal a heart-change. It’s when they are baptized that friends, family, and church members witness their intentions and celebrate with them.

I know of baptisms taking place (besides in churches) at lakes, rivers, backyard swimming pools and even in bathtubs.

Every time I witness bap-tisms, I imagine angels in heaven singing with excite-ment for the new souls saved. Being a Sunday School teacher for many years, I know God’s miracle of a heart-change can occur

not only in church services but in the classroom as well. As I discuss the significance of Jesus as our role model, I try to make the Bible sto-ries come alive and relate them to their lives. It is an awesome responsibility for teachers to be soul-winners, but their classrooms allow students to discuss and ask questions on a more personal basis. (If they do surrender their lives to Christ, of course the pastor should be notified to talk to the student and schedule a baptism. Some churches offer new convert classes to youth and adults to help them with Bible studies on the beginners’ level.)

It is amazing that some people doubt that a miracu-lous transformation takes place in people’s lives when they truly and honestly surrender their hearts to God. They will still make mistakes and stumble at times on their way in life, but they can get up, “dust themselves off” repent and ask for forgiveness because

God now “has their back.” Unbelievers like to think, then, that these Christians are hypocrites, but don’t understand that God grants forgiveness and gives grace if we continually pray and stay connected with Him. We strive to make the most in this temporary world that is a testing ground for the next life—Eternity.

If this sounds like gibber-ish to you, think about this: If my Christian faith gives me hope, peace, strength, kind-ness, patience, compas-sion, and humility, in a world of confusing uncertainty, why not believe? I have never seen an alternative to what my faith in God offers. After all, He created the whole universe in perfect order, from a magnificent solar system to the intricate pattern of each individual snowflake.

It remains a joy to keep learning about God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. Making that decision to become a Christian and then making it public through baptism remains the most impor-tant decisions I have ever made.

…And Then What Happened?What Happened?

Making History in Oklahoma National GuardThe Oklahoma Army

National Guard (OKARNG) made history this month with the promotion of the first African American to achieve the rank of Chief Warrant Officer 5 (CW5), the highest Warrant Officer rank.

Tampa, Florida, native, CW5 Melvin Murphy, now a resident of Moore, Oklahoma, celebrated his achievement among a room full of family, friends and colleagues, both past and present, and spoke honorably about being the first of his race within the OKARNG to reach CW5.

“That’s a position I do not take lightly,” Murphy said. “I want to be that inspiration to the subordi-nates and actually be that individual that they can look at me and say, ‘If CW5 Murphy can do it, I can do it as well.’”

Wearing his new rank for the first time, Murphy stood in front of the room to address his loved ones, leadership and peers. He spoke with pride and admiration, at times with a shaky voice in attempt to hold back his tears as he personally thanked individuals responsible for helping him get to the posi-tion he is in now.

In an interview with

Murphy, he mentioned a few in particular, including God, his family and CW4 (Ret.) David C. Credell, who mentored Murphy and encouraged him to become a Warrant Officer.

“I’m a Christian man, so it always goes God first,” Murphy said. “Mainly, my support comes from my family. I think quite a bit of folks have something to do with me getting here.”

The word “achievement” isn’t one to use casually in Murphy’s scenario. Accord-ing to the state command chief warrant officer for Oklahoma, Chief War-rant Officer 5 Christopher Rau, only one out of 100 Warrant Officer Candidate graduates attain the rank of CW5.

“One must be properly prepared through military and civilian education, show great potential to serve with increased responsibility, but then stars must align and luck and timing does come into play,” Rau said.

Warrant Officers are considered master-level technical experts, combat leaders, trainers and advi-sors. In the United States Army, many Warrant Offi-cers are pilots for rotary or fixed-wing aircraft.

In Murphy’s case, he is

the subject matter expert of any and all things logis-tics and supply. More spe-cifically, he is the full-time Consolidated Property Book Officer (PBO) in the OKARNG’s Joint Force Headquarters’ (JFHQ) logistics section. His duties include supervising PBOs throughout the state and property book manag-ers, a crucial position that ensures the readiness of the force.

“Chief Murphy is one of the most professional Soldiers I have met,” Lt. Col. Steven Stanford said, supervisory logistics management specialist, JFHQ logistics section. “His willingness to assist, train and mentor Soldiers has greatly increased the

readiness throughout all levels of the organization.”

Murphy’s military journey began when he enlisted Active Duty Army in 1986. Shortly after basic and supply training, Murphy was stationed at Fort Bliss, Texas, before serving as a supply clerk in South Korea for one year. When he returned from Korea, he was stationed at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, where he would later join the OKARNG.

Murphy stayed enlisted for ten years until commis-sioning as a Warrant Offi-cer in 1996. He served as the PBO in the OKARNG’s 45th Infantry Brigade Combat Team, where he deployed to Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom.

Shedding Truth on Self-Braking CarsAugust 24, 2016 – New

test results from AAA reveal that automatic emergency braking sys-tems – the safety tech-nology that will soon be standard equipment on 99 percent of vehicles – vary widely in design and per-formance.

“AAA found that two-thirds of Americans famil-iar with the technology believe that automatic emergency braking sys-tems are designed to avoid crashes without driver intervention,” said Chuck Mai, spokesman for AAA Oklahoma. “The reality is that today’s systems vary greatly in performance, and many are not designed to stop a moving car.”

All the systems tested by AAA are designed to apply the brakes when a driver fails to engage. However, those that are designed to prevent crashes reduced vehicle speeds by nearly twice that of those designed to lessen crash severity.

While any reduction in speed offers a significant safety benefit to drivers, AAA warns that automatic braking systems are not all designed to prevent collisions and urges con-sumers to fully understand system limitations before getting behind the wheel.

One type of crash that automatic emergency braking systems are designed to help drivers avoid is rear-end collisions. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says rear-end collisions account for nearly one-third of all traffic crashes. These crashes took 1,966 lives in 2014 and injured 521,668 more.

In partnership with the Automobile Club of South-ern California’s Automotive Research Center, AAA evaluated five 2016 model-year vehicles equipped with automatic emergency braking systems for perfor-mance within system limi-tations and in real-world driving scenarios that were designed to push the tech-nology’s limits.

Systems were tested and compared based on the capabilities and limita-tions stated in the owner’s

manuals and grouped into two categories -- those designed to slow or stop the vehicle enough to prevent crashes, and those designed to slow the vehicle to lessen crash severity.

After more than 70 trials, tests reveal:

In terms of overall speed reduction, the sys-tems designed to prevent crashes reduced vehicle speeds by twice that of systems that are designed to only lessen crash sever-ity (79 percent speed reduction vs. 40 percent speed reduction).

With speed differen-tials of less than 30 mph, systems designed to pre-vent crashes successfully avoided collisions in 60 percent of test scenarios.

Surprisingly, the sys-tems designed to only lessen crash severity were able to completely avoid crashes in nearly 33 per-cent of test scenarios.

When pushed beyond stated system limitations and proposed federal requirements, the variation among systems became more pronounced.

When traveling at 45 mph and approaching a static vehicle, the sys-tems designed to prevent crashes reduced speeds by 74 percent overall and avoided crashes in 40 per-cent of scenarios. In con-trast, systems designed to lessen crash severity were only able to reduce vehicle speed by 9 percent overall.

“Automatic emergency braking systems have the potential to drastically reduce the risk of injury from a crash,” said Mai. “When traveling at 30 mph, a speed reduction of just 10 mph can reduce the energy of crash impact by more than 50 percent.”

Twenty-two automakers representing 99 percent of vehicle sales have com-mitted to making automatic emergency braking sys-tems standard on all new vehicles by 2022.

The U.S. Department of Transportation said this voluntary agreement will make the safety feature available on new cars up to three years sooner than

could be achieved through the formal regulatory pro-cess. Currently, 10 percent of new vehicles have auto-matic emergency braking as standard equipment, and more than half of new vehicles offer the feature as an option.

In addition to the inde-pendent testing, AAA surveyed U.S. drivers to understand consumer purchase habits and level of trust in automatic emer-gency braking systems. Results reveal:

Nearly 40 percent of U.S. drivers want auto-matic brakes on their next vehicle. Men are more likely to want them in their next vehicle (42 percent) than female drivers (35 percent). Two out of five U.S. drivers trust auto-matic brakes to work.

Drivers who currently own a vehicle equipped with an automatic emer-gency braking system are more likely to trust it to work (71 percent) com-pared to drivers that have not experienced the tech-nology (41 percent).

“When shopping for a new vehicle, AAA recom-mends considering one equipped with an auto-matic emergency braking system,” said Mai. “How-ever, with the prolifera-tion of vehicle technology, it’s more important than ever for drivers to fully understand their vehicle’s capabilities and limita-tions before driving off the dealer lot.”

AAA’s testing of auto-matic emergency braking systems was conducted on a closed course at the Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, California. Using instrumented vehicles and a state-of the-art robotic “soft car” that allowed for collisions without vehicle damage, AAA collected vehicle separation, speed and deceleration data in a variety of crash scenarios designed to mirror real-world driving conditions.

The testing was designed to build on previous testing by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. For additional information, visit NewsRoom.AAA.com.

AAA is North America’s largest motoring, leisure

travel and safety advocacy organization with more than 56 million members. A not-for-profit, fully tax-paying organization, AAA Oklahoma provides its 394,000 Oklahoma mem-bers with emergency road-side assistance and auto travel services.

God, Guns, and Survival, Deep in the Heart of the Dust Bowl

On Hardscrabble Life in the Oklahoma PanhandleBy Rae Meadows

Cimarron County is at the westernmost edge of the Oklahoma Panhandle, bor-dered by Kansas, Colorado, New Mexico and Texas. It is out there. The sheer vastness of the space is dislocating, the wind inces-sant, the beauty of the landscape stark. This is High Plains country, where temperatures can drop 50 degrees in a day, and it rains an average of only 18 inches a year. In the 1930s, Cimarron County was the epicenter of the Dust Bowl. Today it’s the least populous

county in Oklahoma, with almost one square mile for every person. As its tourist brochure says: Still not a stoplight in the county!

Boise (rhymes with choice) City is the county seat and the largest town in the county with 1,168 people. It’s an isolated town—a five-hour drive from Oklahoma City—hun-kered beneath a giant sky, amidst a shifting pallet of never-ending buffalo grass. It sits at the intersection of five small highways, the busiest of which is US Highway 287, part of the Ports-to-Plains trade cor-ridor that stretches from Laredo, Texas, to Denver. Semi-trucks roll through town all day long. There are nine churches, and the only bar is the VFW, surrounded on three sides by hay bales and horse corrals. Busi-nesses in town are closed from noon to one for lunch.

Pam’s Variety has been here since 1979 and sells quilting supplies, Tinker Bell figurines, vacuums, shov-

els. A table in front displays bridal registry items—a blender, a cake cover, the board game Balderdash—for Dagan and Dustin, one of two sheriff’s deputies. “I know everyone in town,” says Deanna Frances, who stops by Pam’s. She is from here, and her parents are still going strong at 95 and 102.

But Boise City is chang-ing. Many of the storefronts in the center of town are empty. Cimarron Memorial Hospital no longer performs surgery or delivers babies. The familiar narrative of small town America: jobs drying up, young people leaving, aging population—holds true in Boise City. Agriculture and ranching are still the largest industries but family farms and ranches have dwindled. There is fierce pride here, devotion to the land, loyalty to com-munity. But underneath runs a current of anxiety, a heels-in-the-dirt resistance to change, a fear that Boise City will lose itself. The pop-ulation, about 70 percent white and 28 percent His-panic, is in steady decline, but the Hispanic population is growing, which causes unease among long-time residents.

The playwright Lynn Not-tage has called nostalgia “a disease many white Ameri-can have” and in Boise City it is crippling. Nostalgia for how it was—or how it is remembered—fuels a desire to hold the line, to halt what many residents see as a slide into an America they want no part of.

Immigrants, legal and ille-gal, work at the smelly, dirty, difficult jobs at the feed lots and dairies on the outskirts of town, where thousands of sad-looking cows are crowded into lots thick with mud and manure. The issue in Boise City is not that immigrants take jobs from residents—no one wants the jobs they take—but the fear that they are a threat to the cultural homogeneity, to the traditional idea of what life is like here. Boise City is warm and welcoming to visitors, as long as you’re not looking to stay. It’s a town that refuses to let go of its belief in itself, unwilling to accept that what it once was is no longer. And there might be its undoing.

Guymon, in adjacent Texas County, is the larg-est town in the Panhandle. Its population, over 12,000, almost doubled since 1996 when the Seaboard pork processing plant and hog farms opened. Over half the residents are now Hispanic, and at Guymon High School its close to 70 percent. Growth has brought prob-lems, including a bigger city crime rate and a ballooning number of emergency room visits, not to mention the putrid odor from hog pro-duction. But Guymon is a town that is thriving, boast-ing an arts center, soccer fields, swimming pools, a film festival, a YMCA, cul-tural events, even a drive-in movie theater. Guymon cultivates openness to newcomers. From the city’s web page: “Change often is what signals growth, and Guymon has both growth and change. But what you see today is a healthy town with a very young popula-tion. The future is bright for this town and its citizens, both those who have been here for many generations and for those who are put-ting down new roots in the Oklahoma Panhandle.”

In Boise City, people shake their heads about what has happened to Guymon. To many, the trade-offs that come along with growth do not seem worth it. “In Guymon, immi-grants who can’t read open food at the supermarket to taste it,” Jody Risley, who runs the Cimarron Heritage Center says. “You have to make sure the seal’s not

broke.” Boise City insists on staying exactly as it is, or more accurately, as it was.

“Out here the word liberal is thrown around like an epithet. It drives me nuts, though I consider myself a conservative,” C.F. David says, leaning back in his battered office chair. David, 70, is the editor, publisher and owner of the Boise City News. Cimarron County, he says, is home to extreme right-wing conservatism. David is the town gadfly, and doesn’t shy away from writing about topics that rile his neighbors. “A river running through the com-munity is the Tea Party, which in Cimarron County is radical. It’s the John Birch Society, been here at least 60 years.” In the 2012 presi-dential election more than 90 percent of the county voted Republican, trailing only two counties in Idaho, and three in nearby north-west Texas. (Cruz won the county in the 2016 Repub-lican primary.) Even the militant sovereign citizen movement, which believes the US government is ille-gitimate—Oklahoma City bombing conspirator Terry Nichols was a member—has solid footing here. “I’m not a big fan of the presi-dent,” David says, “but lots of things he gets blamed for I don’t think he did.”

God-and-gun patriotism, distrust of government, economic fragility, lack of agency, remoteness—it’s a potent, anger-stoking mix.

The social hub of Boise City is the Rockin’ A Café. Lined with dusty pick-ups outside, it offers chicken-fried steak and big glorious country breakfasts. Guns are welcome. Signs cover the walls: “Evil is found in the heart of man not in the weapon in his hand”; “You can have my gun when I run out of bullets”; “Mind your manners or you’ll get the boot”; “Security is pro-vided by Jesus and Smith & Wesson”; “In God we trust. Everyone else pays cash.”

LeLayne Tapp, 25, has been a server here for four years. In her denim shorts and turquoise cowboy boots, she greets everyone by name and charms the rotating cast of cowboys and sunburned men in work clothes at the large center table. They all order the daily special: a hamburger patty, mashed potatoes, green beans and chocolate cake hidden under whipped cream, which comes out first. At 3:00 p.m. each day, the old timers come in and claim the table.

Mark Axtell has owned the Rockin’ A for five years. He and his wife also own the mortuary, whose busi-ness has sagged with the shrinking population. “We’ve buried 2,500 people in 30 years of the mortuary,” he says. In those 30 years the population of the county has dropped by about as many people—half its resi-dents—with little rebound.

In addition to running the mortuary, he gets to the cafe at 4:30 am to cook, and daughter Remington, 22, who has two young children of her own, is the manager. (If there was any question about Axtell’s position on guns, his son is named Colt). His wife makes the crowd-pleasing green chili cheese sauce for the enchi-lada special. He needs help at the café, and one of his two servers, Laura Torres, is leaving. “I can’t get help,” he says. “No one wants to work. Because they’re living off our taxes. Or else I’m getting applications from people I would never hire.”

The few people coming in to town, he says, are less than desirable, are look-ing for handouts. The word “welfare” is uttered with contempt by Axtell, part of the right-wing rhetoric com-monly heard around here. There is a palpable through-line of self-reliance that

runs from the early home-steaders, through those who stuck it out during the Dust Bowl and subsequent droughts, to those hanging on today.

“A farmer dies mid-field everyone brings combines over to finish the field,” Axtell says. “We look out for each other’s kids. You can’t pay for that.” He spits his chewing tobacco juice into a cup. “I wouldn’t even want to visit New York City!” he says with a laugh.

Sheriff Leon Apple, 47, laconic and genial, looks as you might imagine, with a mustache that extends down to his chin. He jokes he should have put on his cowboy hat. His office is strapped for resources—they need new vehicles, he would like a third deputy, and they have to send everything downstate for forensics. But he is devoted to his job. “I have a big heart for the people,” he says. “I’m from here. I know life here.”

He says crime is higher now and he notices a dif-ference in attitude, a sense of entitlement from younger residents, newer residents. His office deals with mari-juana coming in from other states, a growing meth problem. (When C.F. David hears this he says, “Holy Christ. Someone’s finally admitting it.”)

One of Sheriff Apple’s deputies, Dustin Cox—of the wedding registry table at Pam’s Variety—is cherub-cheeked and affable, exceedingly polite. He cooks meals for inmates at the jail, which is housed in the courthouse above the Sheriff’s office. The one cur-rent female inmate is locked up for burglary, receiving stolen property and break-ing and entering.

In 2013, members of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, a polygamist sect that splintered from the Mormon Church, arrived in Boise City. “At first there was not a problem,” the Sheriff says. Two Barlow brothers came, then six other brothers followed. They bought a building downtown, some houses. There was one family, George Barlow, 52, and his wife Virginia, 48, and their children. George had been mayor of Colorado City, Ari-zona, the infamous enclave of Warren Jeffs, “President and Prophet, Seer and Rev-elator” of the FLDS church, who is now serving life for felony child sexual assault.

“But then reports started coming in of following young girls,” the Sheriff says. “There is a fear that more will come and purchase more land.”

Jody Risley describes George and Virginia, who volunteered at the Heri-tage Center, as kind, soft-spoken, hard-working and always willing to help out. The Barlow brothers offer construction and remod-eling services; they are carpenters, electricians, mechanics. Risley hired them to fix a leaky roof on the Heritage Center, which, she says, “started the rift” with tradesmen in town. “They didn’t want the competition, didn’t want the town to change.” She says that while the Barlows were working on the roof—it was August and hot—one of the sons went up the ladder to take them water. Someone took a photo as evidence of child labor. “Well you start pushing for a child labor crackdown in Cimarron County you’ll be in trouble,” Risley says. “Parents have kids on the tractors.”

The investigation didn’t go anywhere but the divide grew, which C.F. David called “a low rumble around town.” George Barlow told a reporter from The Okla-homan that they don’t par-ticipate in polygamy, don’t believe in child marriage

and any sexual abuse of children that occurred was not in line with teachings of their faith. He said they came to Oklahoma for work.

“Everybody started stir-ring crap,” C.F. David says. “Fear of a compound. Sto-ries of following kids around town. The thing is, you go anywhere in this town you’re following somebody.” He says there were a lot of rumors, a lot of Internet research. He wrote two edi-torials urging acceptance.

In July of 2014, the sim-mering tensions around the newcomers culminated in a town meeting at a local ban-quet hall. “It was packed,” Risley said. “They had that meeting to make them leave town. They were going to run them out.”

Gary Engels, who works as an investigator for the prosecutor’s office in Mojave County, Arizona, where Colorado City is located, and Sam Brower, a Utah private investigator, came to answer questions. “My feeling is the money being made here is going to enrich the FLDS leader-ship, including Warren Jeff’s commissary in Texas state prison,” Brower said.

Engels told the crowd that Boise City, where land is remote and cheap, would be an easy place for the group to establish a strong-hold, as they had done in Eldorado, TX. Both Brower and Engels said recent developments in Boise City are a pattern they’ve seen sect members follow before in other parts of the country.

Jennifer Adee, 33, said her three-year-old daughter had participated in a local beauty pageant and one of the brothers had sat in the audience taking notes. “Why would he do that unless he’s going to use it to go after our kids? I’m not judging him on his religion. If he wants to practice the way he prac-tices, that’s fine. But I’m not going to let my child be a victim, and I’m not going to let anybody else’s child be a victim.” There was loud applause.

None of the Barlows was in attendance. “If one of those guys would have been there they would have strung him up with a rope,” Risley says.

From the posts on Face-book following the meeting, it appeared tensions were still high. Lisa Vermillion wrote, “They will be first in line at your welfare office. They give nothing back to the community they live adjacent to.” Jay Whizzle: “What do they want to do to these folks? Chase them out of town with torches and pitchforks?” Rhonda Stadler: “WOW!!! I sure don’t want them here!”

C.F. David called the town hall meeting a low point for Boise City. Some of the brothers stayed, others left. Risley says that George and Virginia went down into Texas because they felt Boise City had become unsafe for their children.

The landscape changes sharply when you drive to the northwestern corner of Cimarron County, out to Black Mesa, the high-est point in Oklahoma. Flat grassland gives way to hills with cottonwoods and cacti, wild sunflowers and soap-weeds, buttes, and rocky hills. You might see elk, deer, antelope, bullsnakes, big horn sheep, wild don-

keys, prairie dogs, and dinosaur tracks, believed to have been made by an allo-saurus.

Kenton is a town of 20 ranchers and retirees, perched in this rugged ter-rain of mesas and panoramic plains. Sheriff Apple’s family has ranched here for gen-erations. Cindy Apple, the sheriff’s wife, says she likes to get out to Kenton, out to the ranch. “Boise City is a little too hectic,” she says with a laugh.

Cows graze on thousands of acres of protein-rich native grasses, on land leased from the government. To have a chance to make money out here you need 30 acres for every cow. But family ranch-ing in Cimarron County has become increasingly fraught. Gone are the days when ranchers paid low land lease rates set by state officials. In 1982, a court ruling required the Commissioners of the Land Office (CLO) to enact an open bidding system to generate the largest pos-sible return on the land. The ranchers fought back by refusing to bid against their neighbors.

But in 2005, wealthy Phoenix developer James Parker, who C.F. David describes as “swarthy, in a jogging suit, expensive sneakers and bling around his neck” came to town with his son and entered into a bidding war for land—he paid $9 per acre, the ranch-ers had been paying $1.50-$2.50—winning a lease for four parcels totaling more than 24,000 acres. The Sheriff’s father, Bob Apple, had to be restrained after he lost land to Parker. The auc-tion was so hostile that police had to escort the Parkers out afterward.

Once he had the ranch, the younger Parker claimed angry locals cut his fences, made threats, sabotaged his windmills and fired shots over the heads of ranch workers. “I’ve never seen anything like it. They sure think it’s Wyatt Earp or something,” he told The Oklahoman in 2011. The CLO claimed Parker allowed cattle to roam on the property of neighbors, overgrazed land, and refused to make lease payments after a land swap. A series of suits and countersuits ensued, and, in the end, Parker lost, and then he left.

There will be other Park-ers, other out-of-towners, other cattle corporations—they can’t all be run out of Cimarron County. Some ranchers have taken out second mortgages, while some have given up, unable to compete with big corpora-tions for land. It’s a struggle for family ranchers who have stayed, and they live in fear of the land lease auction. “The future of this industry is really sad,” fourth-generation Kenton rancher George Col-lins says in the documentary Lone Man’s Land. “I think ranching like we do it in this country is a dying breed.” The wistful longing for how it was, of course, powerless to change how it is.

The Territory of Kansas was created in 1854 with its boundary set at the 37th parallel. When Texas came into the union, being a slave state, it couldn’t extend its sovereignty north all the way to Kansas, because that would include land deemed free-state territory by the Missouri Compromise.

That left a narrow strip of land 34 miles wide, 168 miles long between Kansas and Texas, the Cherokee Outlet and the Territory of New Mexico, known as No Man’s Land. There was no law, no organized government, prior to 1890 when it was annexed to the Oklahoma Territory, and became what is now the Panhandle. No Man’s Land drew squatters from heavily mortgaged farmlands in western Kansas, cattle ranchers, and outlaws.

In 1906, at age 21, C.F. David’s father traveled from Missouri by rail in a cattle car lined with plywood, filled

with everything he owned: a mule, horse, bicycle, wagon, and supplies with which to survive on the prairie. At Guymon, he unloaded and traveled three days to arrive on the land he was to home-stead in Cimarron County. He lived in a tent while he built his dugout house. The government had come through and drilled a well every ten miles or so. “He dug in the frozen earth by measuring off and then gath-ering buffalo and cow chips, laying them in the outline of his home-to-be and setting them afire. As the fire burned out and the ground thawed, he’d dig out and start over with another layer of chips.”

Two years later, Boise City was founded by developers who promoted the town as an elegant, tree-lined city with paved streets, busi-nesses, and railroad service. (Boise is from the French “les bois” meaning woods.) They sold 3,000 lots to buyers who discovered, upon their arrival, that Boise City was bogus—there was no bucolic town, there wasn’t anything. The developers went to prison for fraud. But enough people decided to stay anyway, joining the home-steaders already there, and Boise City was incorporated in 1925.

From 1909 to 1929, during the frenzied wheat boom, farmers ripped out 32 million acres of prairie sod in the Great Plains. In the 1920s, they switched to the more efficient, but shallow-slicing disc plow, which left topsoil vulnerable to the wind. On the Panhandle, farming sub marginal lands led to soil ero-sion, and falling crop prices and high machinery costs meant that farmers needed to cultivate more and more land to produce enough to meet their payments. And then came the severe drought, nearly a decade long, and the result was what became known as the Dust Bowl, one of the worst environmental disasters in US history. With-out the root system of grass as an anchor, winds picked up exposed topsoil, creating massive rolling dust storms some 10,000 feet in the air.

Despite the migrant exodus from Oklahoma and other states, most of the people of Boise City stuck it out. It lost less than 10 per-cent of its population in what became known as the Dirty Thirties. Even in those brutal years, going on government relief was seen as shameful. People got by however they could.

“We would have left if we had any money,” Mabry Foreman, 92, says with a grin. His family farmed a quarter section (160 acres) near Boise City and stayed on through the Dust Bowl. “We were poor but so was everyone else,” he says. They had no electricity or water, but they had a garden and cows, which sustained them. In those years his father’s asthma left him too ill to work so Mabry and his brother took over the farm when they were ten and eleven years old. They got up at five to work and got to school at nine.

The Dust Bowl is an essential part of Boise City’s history. Most residents, their parents or their grandparents lived through it. Grit, in every sense, is part of the town mythology.

The Cimarron Heritage Center in Boise City, an impressive and thorough compound containing, among other things, a museum of Dust Bowl arti-facts and history, a dinosaur exhibit, a windmill, a dugout house moved piece-by-painstaking-piece from its original site, Mrs. Opal Cox’s exhaustive button collection, and Cimmy, a 65-foot-long, 18,000-pound steel bronto-saurus.

Jody Risley, 57, who has been the director for 20 years, is passionate about her role as keeper of history. In addition to running the center and raising money, she records stories of the Dust Bowl from those who

lived through it. The Heritage Center is often empty. “I’ve had to chase out bums and hitchhikers who come in and hang out all day when it’s cold or rainy. They stretch right out on the couch,” she says. But despite the sparse visitors, she acknowledges that most folks have a sense of history from their own family stories.

“Mom’s mad they always go to the same sources for the Dust Bowl,” Bonnie Miller says, as she cuts back sage from around a county event board. “She has tons of stories!” Miller, fine-featured with bright eyes, is a retired schoolteacher and now an EMT. She grew up one of eleven. Two of her siblings have died of cancer and her youngest brother was killed in a combine accident. When she was younger she moved to Texas for a while to work in a hotel but her dad called her back for help with harvest and she stayed. Her mother is 86 and still lives out near Kenton—she ran the post office for 30 years—where Bonnie grew up learning to can ketchup and make bis-cuits for the cowboys, and the best way to de-feather a chicken—tail feathers and wings first after the scald or they’re never coming out.

Farms in the region now engage in “no-till” agricul-ture—stubble is deliber-ately left standing in fields to reduce the amount of farmland exposed to wind. Experts say the Dust Bowl can’t happen again, at least not to the same magnitude, but some here aren’t so sure. When it’s dry, wind can strip away an inch of topsoil in as little as 24 hours, soil taken centuries to form. “People always ask if it can happen again. Yes it can,” Jody Risley says. Grasshoppers thrive in hot dry weather, and during the Dust Bowl plague-like swarms descended on the Panhandle destroying what meager crops remained. “What the sun left, the grass-hoppers took,” President Franklin D. Roosevelt once said during a fireside chat. “The grasshoppers were so thick on the road this year you could hear them under the tires,” Risley says.

LeLayne Tapp at the Rockin’ A shows photos on her phone from a dust storm they had last year. It’s strange to see it in color, eerie, the dust light like ashy snow, the sunlight a dark orange. Despite the recent rain, someone from the Department of Agriculture leans over his booth to say they can’t truly call it the end of the current drought, which has lasted for four years, until two or three more good seasons.

In Cimarron County, 30 percent of the agricul-tural land is part of the government’s Conservation Reserve Program that pays “rent” in exchange for farm-ers removing environmen-tally sensitive land from agri-cultural production and plant-ing grasses. Farmers sign ten- to fifteen-year contracts, and they must pay fees and return rent payments to have their land released early.

“Now they’re breaking the sod again,” Risley says. Farmers are cultivating land released from the CRP. “This part of the country doesn’t take much rain to go from gray to green. But this year things actually grew. The co-op broke all records with wheat because there was rain and no hail.”

Each growing season feels precarious, a nail-biting watch of the sky. Everything hinges on a few inches of rain. Farmers are gamblers, and this year, at least, they have come out on top. “This year is beautiful because there’s been rain,” Pam Carson of Pam’s Variety says.

Boise City has survived its fraudulent beginning, years of dust storms and crop fail-ures, even being bombed: in 1943 a B-17 bomber crew from the Dalhart Army Air Base dropped six bombs on the town square, mistaking the lights for their training

target. But the future of Boise City is wobbly. Extinction by attrition is a looming possi-bility. With the huge tractors used now, and land fallow in the CRP, farms don’t need the people they once did. Family ranchers have a tenu-ous hold on grazing land, uncertain if their children will have anything to take over.

“The young people don’t come back here because there’s nothing to do,” Jody Risley says, echoing C.F. David: “Unless your dad owns 6,000 acres of ground, you’re going to leave.”

Laura Torres, 27, is a single mom to a four-year-old son, and she is leaving her jobs at the Images Salon and the Rockin’ A, leaving Boise City for the University of Kansas, a masters program in music therapy. Her goal is to be a music therapist at Seattle Children’s Hospital. “People are confused by what I’m going to do,” she says. “Therapy is unheard of here.” She has a distance about her, a determined for-ward-looking gaze. She has places to go.

The Patels have owned the squat, peach-painted Townsman Motel on the eastern edge of town for seven years. They arrived in Boise City via Chicago—where they had a conve-nience store—originally from Western India. They live in the apartment behind the check-in desk. Shital Patel, 44, is cheerful with a quick smile, a long braid down her back. She cleans the rooms each day, and her husband, a former software engineer in India, does build-ing maintenance. The Patels, practicing Hindus in the heart of Christian cattle country, mainly keep to themselves. Their son just started at Georgia Tech in aero-astro engineering, and their daughter attends a boarding school in Oklahoma City. The Patels’ children’s success is paramount, and they have sent them far from Boise City

to find it.The question of Boise

City’s survival is more than an economic one. They can’t keep those they want, can’t chase out all those they don’t. To uphold a way of life, they might watch it die out all together. Boise City remains authentically, stubbornly itself. They have survived before, and they believe they will continue to, they’ll grit their teeth and keep on, bolstered by the certainty of their belief that they belong to this land.

“If you moved here tomor-row, joined every club and community group, and died here 60 years from now, you would always be an outsider. There’s us, and then there’s you,” C.F. David says. “I moved away for 27 years and I felt that coming back. I went away. Sold my daddy’s farm. You don’t give up land. Espe-cially land your father broke out with a horse-drawn plow.”

At No Man’s Land Beef Jerky, owner Britt Smith is exuberant, pushing samples on whoever walks through the door. It’s a rare thriv-ing family business—Smith drives a Hummer—and they are expanding. Online orders come in from all over the country. He shows photos of his great-grandfather, who used to deliver ammunition to Billy the Kid, and of his grandfather ranching in the 1930s. “I think people live a long time here because they’re skinny,” he says. “And

there’s room to breathe.”Anywhere you turn in

Boise City there is the long view, the expanse of wide, flat grasslands ever shifting in color from green to gold. Wind goes from a whisper to a roar. Clouds are sparse one minute, billowy the next, and then gone altogether, the sky a mesmerizing blue. You can watch the rain moving across the plains, the dark flat light electrifying the green of the new wheat crop. Cows swish their tails and lazily graze on acres of grass. The landscape makes you feel both insignificant and mean-ingful, lost and grounded. It’s beautiful. The breathtaking wonder of all that space.

C.F. David has been trying to sell the struggling paper, which has been in existence since 1898. There’s not enough of an ad base and it costs too much to heat the old building they are in. He had a heart attack a couple years ago and suffers from panic attacks, which have hurt his ability to do investi-gative work. He wants to pen a YA novel, wants to write his memoirs for his children.

In the cavernous back room of the Boise City News office sits the old printing press, retired long ago. David rummages through the heavy letterpress blocks of lead type. “Make sure to wash your hands after you touch these,” he says. “That’s what brought down the Roman Empire!”

subjects were cleared of extraditable warrants.

Wooten asked both of the occupants if there was anything in the vehicle that she needed to know about. The police report states that both subjects stated “no” but Wooten noticed their demeanors were fidgety and nervous.

Wooten called Wewoka’s K9 officer, Jamie Breedlove to see if he was available to assist in the traffic stop, due to the alleged detection of marijuana in the vehicle. Breedlove, along with Semi-nole County Deputy Steffan Jasna arrived on scene a short time later.

According to the police report, Officers Wooten, Breedlove and Jasna asked the subjects again about the odor of marijuana.

Kristy allegedly stated to Wooten they had been smoking while driving down the road. She allegedly stated she flicked it out the window when they stopped. Raymond also allegedly admitted to smoking mari-juana.

Breedlove deployed his K9 partner, Dante, while the subjects where seated in the vehicle. The K9 report-edly had several positive alerts.

The Sheppards were asked to exit the vehicle, patted down by officers and asked to stand in front of Wooten’s vehicle while the K9 was deployed inside the vehicle. The K9 had positive indicators inside the vehicle.

Wooten reportedly asked Kristy what they had been smoking the marijuana in and she replied “cigar paper.” Wooten then asked her “like a Black and Mild cigar paper” and she replied “no, just a light brown cigar paper.”

Breedlove found a light brown cigar wrapped with a green leafy substance inside by the right rear pas-

senger side tire.Breedlove and Wooten

continued to search the vehicle and came across Raymond’s Oklahoma ID card, which he stated he did not have.

Wooten then found a child’s potato toy inside of Kristy’s purse containing a green leafy substance.

Wooten spoke to Kristy, who once again allegedly stated she had been smok-ing the blunt while driving down the road.

They were both given the horizontal gaze nys-tagmus and vertical gaze nystagmus and, according to reports, both had dilated pupils.

Wooten had Kristy turn around and placed her in handcuffs for driving under the influence. While walking to the police vehicle Wooten read her Implied Consent, which Kristy refused.

In Oklahoma when a driver receives an Oklahoma driver’s license, the license holder agrees to follow state traffic and safety laws. It is also an agreement promis-ing to adhere to the Implied Consent Law which requires submitting to chemical test-ing if suspected of a DUI.

According to Oklahoma law, if the subject refuses testing, the punishment is an arrest and charged with violating the law. The test must be taken within two hours of driving and you cannot refuse the test with-out penalty, such as auto-matic license suspension along with possible further penalties.

Raymond was arrested for public intoxication and both were taken to the Seminole County Jail.

The vehicle was left on the side of the road as requested by the Sheppards so that a family member could pick it up.

All evidence that was collected was taken to the sheriff’s office logged, pho-tographed and secured.

have it on them.Haley gathered their

names and birthdates. The driver was identified as Harjo.

Harjo stated to Haley that he had just gone to pick up his friend from work at the brick plant and they were driving home.

Haley requested assis-tance from the Seminole Police Department. Lieuten-ant Jason Null and Patrol-man Kyle Wheeler arrived on scene.

Haley returned to the Rhino and had Harjo step to the police unit and speak to him and perform a pat down to check for weapons.

Haley discovered a silver container in Harjo’s pocket. When Haley asked what it was, Harjo allegedly stated it was K2 that he had smoked.

Once again Haley asked where he was coming from and where he was headed.

Harjo replied he had just gone and picked up his friend from the brick plant and was going back to his house, located just up the road.

When Haley confronted him about the information he had received from Akins not working at the brick plant, Harjo changed his story and stated that he went to pick Akins up from his parents house because he was fighting with his mother and he stated he knows how that can be, so he went to get him away from there for awhile.

Haley placed Harjo in handcuffs but told him he

was not under arrest at that time, he just needed to sort out the stories.

Haley went back to the Rhino and asked Akins where they had come from and where they were headed. Akins stated that Harjo had just picked him up from a friend’s house and they were going to “chill” at Harjo’s house for the night.

Haley asked Akins about the chainsaw, edger and grinder in the bed of the Rhino. Akins allegedly stated he did not know any-thing about that since Harjo had just picked him up.

Haley contacted central dispatch again and had them run the serial numbers on the Rhino.

Dispatch notified him that the Rhino was reported stolen from a residence in Seminole County on Aug. 17.

Haley informed both Harjo and Akins that they were under arrest for pos-session of stolen property and Harjo would also be charged with possession of a controlled and dangerous substance.

Central dispatch con-tacted the owner of the Rhino and he arrived on scene to retrieve his miss-ing Rhino, however the owner stated to officers that the items in the bed of the Rhino were not his and that some of his items that were in it at the time it was stolen were missing.

The Rhino was released to Town and Country at the owner’s request for him to pick up when he got off work later.

drive their decision. The good news is, Varnum has been very receptive. The new Superintendent has been a breath of fresh air and the nonprofit I founded, Advance Rural Education, has put together a program for them.

We are raising a sig-nificant amount of money to pay for a new career pathway program, have connected them with educa-tional experts, and opened our world class facility to their teachers to use to help educate.

During our work we dis-covered that there could be an option to help the parents and students in the Semi-nole School District. That option was to charter our own school. We spent a lot of time researching the pros and cons and touring other schools in other states.

We became very inspired with the possibilities and the opportunities we could potentially provide to Semi-nole kids. In March of this year, we partnered with several other nonprofits and started to put together the plan and application.

When we submitted the application this week to the Seminole School District Superintendent, I told him my hope is that we could work together to find a solu-tion that was best for the students and parents of his district.

We remain optimistic that we can work out a solution that helps unite the com-munity and advance our local educational system in a way our students, parents, teachers and community deserve.

Q: Why submit your application on the day of the bond election?

The answer is quite simple. I did not want our efforts to become a politi-cal football with respect to the school bond. I did not want our project to be used by either “side” of this bond election.

If we announced before the bond, either side could have used our efforts as political leverage to further position their stance. If we waited until after the bond, the losing side could blame our school for the outcome. Therefore, the timing was very intentional.

We booked a meeting with Seminole School District Superintendent Mr. Gaches (by the way, we are an early fan of Mr. Gaches and he did not know the subject of our meeting beforehand) for 4pm, Tuesday, August 23rd. Too late for either side to use our efforts as leverage, and early enough, before the polls closed, to show we are not motivated by the outcome of this bond.

Whether the bond passed or was rejected, we were moving forward with this effort.

Obama Creates Ocean Reserve, Takes Heat For New Federal DecreesPresident Obama, with

the stroke of a pen, created the world’s largest ocean reserve on Friday off Hawaii, days after designating a massive federal monument in Maine – moves that have angered local lawmakers who accuse the president of disregarding the impact on residents.

Obama used a presiden-tial proclamation to expand the Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument off the coast of Hawaii by over 400,000 square miles. The preserve now stretches 582,578 square miles, the world’s largest marine pro-tected area.

“The expansion provides critical protections for more than 7,000 marine species ... [and] will allow scientists to monitor and explore the impacts of climate change on these fragile ecosys-tems,” the White House said in a statement, citing the support of Sen. Brian Schatz and “prominent Native Hawaiian leaders.”

But the decision drew sharp criticism from the fish-ing industry and even fellow Democrats, as it will drasti-cally expand the area where commercial fishing and drill-ing is banned.

Former Democratic Gov. George Ariyoshi said at a rally last month that it came down to the question of who actually owned the ocean.

“The ocean belongs to us,” Ariyoshi reportedly said. “We ought to be the ones who decide what kind of use to make of the ocean.”

Representatives from the fishing industry warn the move will increase prices and imports, The Honolulu Star Advertiser reported. All commercial extraction activities will be prohibited within the area, though non-commercial fishing is allowed by permit.

The regional council that manages U.S. waters in the Pacific Islands said the decision “serves a political

legacy” rather than a con-servation benefit.

“Closing 60 percent of Hawaii’s waters to commer-cial fishing, when science is telling us that it will not lead to more productive local fisheries, makes no sense,” said Edwin Ebiusi Jr., chair-man of the Western Pacific Regional Fishery Manage-ment Council. “Today is a sad day in the history of Hawaii’s fisheries and a negative blow to our local food security.”

The Pew Charitable Trusts, which supported the expansion, gave an idea of how big the area truly is, saying more than three Cal-ifornias could be squeezed into it:

According to the Star Advertiser, the idea was proposed to Obama by Native Hawaiian leaders, who argued the waters in the area contained sharks and large predatory fish that have been overfished in other areas and were in need of protection. The move has also been backed by environmentalists and some scientists.

Other Democrats praised Obama’s action, with Sen. Brian Schatz, D-Hawaii, calling it “one of the most important actions an Ameri-can president has ever taken for the health of the oceans.”

With the announcement, Obama will have created or expanded 26 national monuments. The admin-istration said Obama has protected more acreage through national monument designations than any other president.

Obama will travel to Midway Atoll, within the monument, on Thursday as part of a visit to Hawaii next week. His visit will come after he addresses leaders from the Pacific Island Con-ference of Leaders and the IUCN World Conservation Congress.

The monument was first

designated by President George W. Bush in 2006.

The announcement came after Obama used his executive authority to create the National Park Service’s newest national monument at Katahdin Woods and Waters in Maine. The new monument was created as part of the 100th anniver-sary of the creation of the National Park Service.

The White House said

the monument will protect 87,500 acres and will bol-ster the forest’s resilience against the impact of cli-mate change.

The monument’s cre-ation, though, was opposed by state lawmakers and critics who warn it will hinder efforts to rebuild a forest-based economy in the region.

“President Obama is once again taking unilateral

action against the will of the people, this time the citizens of rural Maine,” Republican Gov. Paul LePage said. “The Legislature passed a resolution opposing a National Monument in the North Woods, members of Maine’s Congressional delegation opposed it and local citizens voted against it repeatedly.”

The move also was opposed by Sen. Susan

Collins and Rep. Bruce Poli-quin, both Republicans.

“Our local job creators—not Washington bureau-crats—know best how to use our working forests and provide proper access for industries to create more jobs including those in the outdoor recreation busi-nesses, like snowmobiling, hunting, rafting, camping and so on,” Poliquin said in a statement.

OK Board Approves 349 More Emergency Teaching CertificatesBy Tim Willert

The state Board of Educa-tion on Thursday approved 349 more emergency teach-ing certificates, further proof Oklahoma’s teacher short-age shows no signs of letting up.

State schools Superin-tendent Joy Hofmeister and other education officials warned that public educa-tion will continue to suffer without a long-term solution that addresses pay raises for teachers.

“The quality of our stu-dents’ education is com-

promised, and the teacher shortage will not fix itself,” she said. “There is a cost to this crisis, and I believe it is our obligation to address. Either we pay now, or our kids pay later.”

Since May, the board has approved 730 emergency certificates, which are issued to school districts that lack qualified candidates to fill teaching vacancies.

“While that’s a nice stop gap for schools, it’s very concerning that we’re put-ting people in classrooms that have never had training as a teacher,” said Shawn

Hime, executive director of the Oklahoma State School Boards Association. “As a parent, that’s not really the expectation you have for your classroom teachers.”

By this time last year there were 1,000 teaching vacan-cies and the state Education Department had approved a total of 685 emergency cer-tificates, which are awarded to candidates with a bach-elor’s degree who are on a path to become certified in their field of need.

Since then, however, dis-tricts across the state have eliminated more than 1,500

teaching jobs and 1,300 support staff < positions because of funding cuts, according to an association survey released this week.

The latest number of vacancies reported by the association — 543 as of Aug. 1 — does not include positions filled by teachers holding 381 emergency cer-tificates issued by the board in May, June and July.

Special education, elementary, math, science and English are the most challenging areas to fill with certified teachers, according to the survey.

“The fact that we’ve elimi-nated 1,500 positions and still have over 500 openings tells you the teacher short-age in our state has grown from last year to this year,” Hime said. “It also shows that we have to step up and make sure we find a long-term funding solution for education that provides a competitive compensation for our teachers.”

OKC school districtOklahoma City Public

Schools requested 80 of the certificates issued Thursday. The state’s largest school district employs 149 teach-

ers with emergency cer-tificates and currently has 37 vacancies, spokesman Mark Myers said.

The district also employs 508 substitutes, 265 of which are certified teachers. Additionally, 179 first-year teachers and 24 second-year teachers worked for the district as of Aug. 1, the start of the 2016-17 school year.

Superintendent Aurora Lora has said it will be a chal-lenging year for a district that cut $30 million worth of posi-tions, services and programs.

Lora could not be reached for comment Thursday.

Medical Marijuana State Question May Not Make November BallotBy Randy Ellis

Attorney General Scott Pruitt announced Thursday he has submitted a revised ballot title for a state ques-tion on whether to legalize medical marijuana use, but indicated the late submis-sion of petition signatures is expected to prevent a November vote on the issue.

“I commend the attorneys in my office for their diligent work to complete this ballot title in an efficient manner, “ Pruitt said. “While my office has done its part by prepar-ing the ballot title well before the Sept 1 deadline, there are still steps remaining in order for the question to be placed on a ballot.”

One of the biggest obsta-cles that is expected to pre-vent State Question 788 from

being on the November ballot is a federal requirement that absentee ballots be sent out to members of the military and other overseas voters 45 days in advance of a federal election.

“We are dealing with pro-cesses established in both federal and state election law for initiatives proposed by the people that require specific procedures to be followed,” Pruitt said.

“Even with expedited efforts of both the Secretary of State’s office to count the signatures and my office to write the ballot title, the state is running up against deadlines imposed by this process.

It’s important for the people of Oklahoma to know, regardless of the substance of the state question, the

signatures were not submit-ted with enough time to allow this process to be played out completely.”

After the Attorney Gen-eral’s Office submits the substitute ballot title to the Secretary of State, it must be published and opponents must have ten business days to object to the ballot title based on the validity or number of signatures or a challenge to the ballot title, he noted.

The governor cannot issue the proclamation plac-ing the initiative petition on the ballot until the timeline for objections and protests has passed.

That can’t happen until well past the end of the day Friday, and Oklahoma Elec-tion Board Secretary Paul Ziriax has told Gov. Mary

Fallin that is the latest time he can receive a proclamation from her and still have time to prepare, test, print and mail ballots and meet all federal deadlines.

If the issue fails to make the November ballot but clears all other obstacles, it could be voted on during a special election or during the 2018 primary or general elec-tion, officials said.

Following is the ballot title submitted by Pruitt’s office:

Oklahoma medical mari-juana petition gets enough signatures to be examined for ballot

“BALLOT TITLE FOR STATE QUESTION NO. 788

This measure legalizes the licensed use, sale, and growth of marijuana in Okla-homa. There are no qualifying medical conditions identified.

Possession and use of mari-juana is authorized through a medical marijuana license that is valid for two years, rather than by prescription. An Oklahoma board certi-fied physician must recom-mend the license using the same accepted standards for recommending other medi-cations, and must sign the application for the license. The State Department of Health must issue a license to an applicant who:

• submits a valid applica-tion,

• is eighteen years or older, and

• is an Oklahoma resident.Applications for individu-

als under eighteen must be signed by two physicians and by a parent or legal guard-ian.

The Department also

issues seller, grower, packag-ing, transportation, research, and caregiver licenses to those who meet certain minimal requirements. A 7 percent state tax is imposed on retail sales of marijuana. Unlicensed possession by an individual who claims to have a medical condition is punish-able by a fine not exceeding $400.

Local government cannot use zoning laws to prevent the opening of a retail mari-juana store. This measure does not change federal law, which makes use, sale, and growth of marijuana illegal.

SHALL THE MEASURE BE APPROVED? FOR THE MEASURE - YES AGAINST THE MEASURE - NO A “YES” vote is a vote in favor of this measure. A “NO” vote is a vote against this measure.”

Enable Midstream Partners Names Executive Vice PresidentBy Adam Wilmoth

Enable Midstream Part-ners directors have named Craig Harris executive vice president and chief com-mercial officer, effective Sept. 6, the Oklahoma City-based pipeline company announced Thursday.

Harris previously served as senior vice president of business development and marketing at Houston-

based Columbia Pipeline Group Inc., where he was responsible for business development and marking strategy.

“I am pleased to wel-come Craig to the Enable team,” Enable CEO Rod Sailor said in a statement.

“He brings an impressive track record of success in a variety of roles at energy-related organizations and solid experience in leading

the development and imple-mentation of a successful commercial strategy.

His depth and breadth of experience will further strengthen our organiza-tional and commercial lead-ership, and we look forward to the many contributions he will bring to our vision of building the industry’s pre-ferred midstream provider.”

Before joining Columbia, Harris worked at El Paso

Corp. for 20 years and ear-lier worked in private equity as managing director at Alinda Capital Partners.

Harris holds a Bachelor of Science in mechanical engineering from Tennes-see Technological Univer-sity and a master’s degree in mechanical engineering from Vanderbilt University.

“I’m excited to join a com-pany that is continuing to grow its presence in some

of the country’s top plays,” Harris said in a statement. “Enable’s market- leading position in the SCOOP and STACK provides a strong gathering and processing base that is supported by a significant transportation network that reaches grow-ing market demand.”

Enable in July opened its Bradley II Plant, which can process up to 200 million cubic feet of natural gas per

day. The facility is in Grady County, where Enable’s pipeline infrastructure and processing facilities can support natural gas produc-tion in the Anadarko Basin’s SCOOP and STACK plays.

The $200 million Brad-ley II project opened just 14 months after Bradley I became operational. The first plant on the site also has a capacity of 200 million cubic feet per day.

Woman Copes With Anxiety

By Filtering Out Bad NewsDEAR ABBY: Clearly,

America is in a state of turmoil. I am horrified and ashamed of the senseless death occurring daily.

I deal with anxiety, par-ticularly regarding fear of death. As a result, the only thing I’ve found that I can do to cope with current events is to scan headlines, and ask my understanding husband for a synopsis of events that doesn’t include major triggers.

However, I feel seri-ous guilt that I may not be fully educating myself on recent events. Am I wrong to prioritize my mental well-being over the gravity of our country’s current situation? -- SERIOUS GUILT

DEAR SERIOUS GUILT:

Wrong? Absolutely not! According to The Journal of the American Medi-cal Association, 13 per-cent of Americans now use antidepressants to combat depression and anxiety. Our news media feed so many salacious details into our homes in the interest of high rat-ings that it’s a miracle the majority of Americans aren’t in need of them.

If you are getting the news you need to know, do not feel guilty for using your husband as a filter. You are only protecting yourself, and that’s not wrong. It’s HEALTHY.

**DEAR ABBY: I need

advice. I’m 23 and have been living with my boy-friend of almost two years. I have never been in a rela-tionship before this one, so I have little experience. I love him dearly, but every time there’s an issue between us, it always becomes my fault and I’m always the one to apologize. What should I do? -- INEXPERIENCED IN TAMPA

DEAR INEXPERI-ENCED: Even a stopped clock is right twice a day. You should not be forced into the role of perpetual peacekeeper by accepting the blame for everything,

and it won’t improve your relationship.

Because your boy-friend’s preferred method of solving disagreements is laying the blame on you, suggest the two of you get couples counseling. How-ever, if he refuses -- and he may -- you will then have to decide whether this is the way you want to spend the foreseeable future because things aren’t likely to change.

**DEAR ABBY: My sister-

in-law “Dani” and my brother have been married almost three years. I recently discov-ered that Dani has created a fake social media page. She posted some nude photos on it and acts like she’s single. I suspect she is getting paid to do live nude video chat-ting, too.

Abby, I’m shocked over this. I’m sure my brother would explode with rage and disappointment if he knew. They have two small daughters, which leaves me to wonder if she has consid-ered their embarrassment if they ever find out.

She’s a good person, so I don’t know why she would do this. I really need your advice. -- SHOCKED SISTER-IN-LAW IN THE SOUTH

DEAR S-I-L: It’s time to talk to Dani. Tell her what you have learned and ask her why she’s doing it. When you do, ask how she thinks your brother will react when he finds out -- if he doesn’t already know -- and how this could affect their daughters.

UN Agency: No Confirmed Zika Cases Linked to OlympicsTomer Singer, director

of reproductive endocrinol-ogy and infertility at Lenox Hill Hospital in NY, said the study “raises concerns about Zika becoming a sex-ually transmitted disease rather than just a virus that affects pregnant women.”

“We’re treating that as a priority”, said MRCU Direc-tor Bill Petrie, with work-ers treating the yards and areas around where preg-nant women live and work. “We’re investigating this rigorously”, Iwasaki said.

Mosquitoes capable of

transmitting the Zika virus have been found in a sev-enth county. The virus has to reproduce inside them in order to pass it on to some-one else.

The mother developed symptoms of Zika illness - rash, fever, headache, swollen joints - in week 26 of her pregnancy. Since the Zika outbreak began a year ago in Brazil, thousands of babies whose mothers were infected with Zika early in pregnancy have been born with a devastating birth defect known as microceph-

aly, in which the head and brain are abnormally small.

Zika in many countries has caused babies to be born with microcephaly, an abnormally small head and underdeveloped brain that can lead to death or a life-time of disability.

No one appears to have caught Zika at the Olym-pics, the World Health Organization said Thursday. “I don’t think large-scale epidemics are possible in the USA because of window screening and air condition-ing”, said Ira Longini, a pro-

fessor of biostatistics at UF and one of the lead authors of the study.

“We don’t know so much of the information that would help us understand the actual risk”, she said. In other recent Zika news, experts have wondered if the virus might sometimes be transmitted through blood transfusions, and a cluster of infections in Brazil seems to support that notion.

Partners of pregnant women are advised to use a condom to guard against sexual transmission during

pregnancy. The Arkansas Department of Health con-firmed Monday there are now 12 travel associated Zika virus cases in the state.

They applied the model to the continental United States after public-health authorities confirmed the first cases of local trans-mission in the country in Miami’s Wynwood neigh-borhood last month.

The Cayman Compass spoke with several pregnant women about their concerns over Zika, but none would go on the record. “The find-

ing may be important for women, not only pregnant women”, she said. In its latest update on Zika, WHO said so far there had been no cases although cases could still be reported.

The report, published online August 24 in the New England Journal of Medi-cine, involves a baby boy born in January to a woman in Sao Paulo, Brazil. In the meantime, she continues to work in London and Mr. Patel is able to get back and work at his law firm’s office there every five weeks.

SpaceX Dragon CRS-9 Cargo Ship Departs From ISS in SpaceThe SpaceX Dragon

CRS-9 cargo spacecraft is due to leave the Interna-tional Space Station (ISS) on Friday.

The SpaceX rocket Dragon cargo spacecraft was launched to the ISS on

a Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida on July 18.

The cargo ship delivered scientific research equip-ment with some 5,000 lbs (2,270 kg) of critical payload and was carrying an Inter-

national Docking Adapter (IDA), which will be used to convert a former Space Shuttle docking port for use by future US manned vehicles.

While Dragon was begin-ning her pursuit of the ISS, the first stage was complet-ing the second successful landing on the LZ-1 pad back at the Cape.

A few days later, Dragon entered the Station’s back yard and prepared to be caught by the Space Sta-tion Remote Manipulator System (SSRMS).

ISS Commander Jeff Wil-liams and Flight Engineer Dr. Kate Rubins – working in the Robotic Work Station (RWS) in the Cupola lab – extended the “big arm” toward Dragon’s grapple fixture, before carefully

translating the cargo-laden craft into Node-2 Harmony’s nadir port.

With the hatch opened later that day, the ISS crew began removing the array of supplies – totaling of 1,790 kg (3,946 lb) – inside the Dragon’s pressurized sec-tion.

In Dragon’s trunk section was a key payload that will help her big sister –Dragon 2 – dock with the ISS when the United States regains its domestic crew launch capability via theCommer-cial Crew Program (CCP) missions.

The International Docking Adapter (IDA) is a piece of hardware designed to con-vert the US Segment’s old Shuttle-era docking ports to a new docking system, thus allowing them to accept the

upcoming commercial crew vehicles which will all use the updated docking system design.

The CRS-9 Dragon pro-vided the ride uphill for IDA-2, allowing it to be removed from her trunk and installed during a robotics operation and via EVA-36 – conducted by Williams and Rubins.

To kick off the homecom-ing, the long sequence of events – that will ultimately lead to Dragon safely bob-bing the Pacific Ocean – began on Thursday with the unberthing of Dragon from the Node 2 Nadir CBM, via the release of 16 bolts around the CBM berthing collar on the ISS side, performed in four sets of four bolts to ensure even unloading on the CBM inter-face.

Dragon was then pulled away from the ISS via the use of the SSRMS.

Dragon was manou-vered to the release posi-tion approximately 30 feet below the ISS. She was left in this position for the night – known as the parking position.

Friday’s ops will begin with Dragon in the release position, ahead of the time for Dragon and the ISS to part ways.

Rubins, aided by Takuya Onishi of JAXA, will squeeze the trigger on the Rotational Hand Controller (RHC) on the RWS to release the snares holding the SSRMS Latching End Effector (LEE) to the Dragon Flight Releasable Grapple Fixture (FRGF) – effectively “letting go” of Dragon.


THE BLOOD OF GRACE

Without Blood there is no remission of sins, without the shedding blood we have no release

of freedom from all our sin. (Acts 10:43)

You see, the Re of Release stands for Refreshed. The lease part of Release stands for contract.

So we have been set free from the contract of sin & guilt and made Refreshed by the Blood of

Jesus Christ. So that old contract that kept us in bondage has been done away with by the new

contract of the Blood of Grace.

In Acts Chapter 20 verse 24 Paul plainly says that the Gospel we are to preach or testify to is

Grace!!! Jesus is the Gospel of Grace. The shedding of His blood has purged us from all sin, by the Blood of His Grace we are free,

forgiven, justifi ed, sanctifi ed, and glorifi ed, made

Holy by the Blood of Christ, God’s Grace.

Titus 2:11-14 plainly tells you this...That the Grace of God that brings Salvation “Has” appeared unto ALL men; teaching us that we

can deny all ungodliness and worldly lust. We can thru Christ Jesus live soberly, righteously

and godly in this present world. By looking to Jesus our Savior who Redeemed us by

His own Blood of Grace.

Remember Grace doesn’t give us a license to sin. Grace teaches us that we are forgiven, free and loved so we can live a righteous life even in an ungodly world. By the Blood of Jesus

Christ we are saved, healed, set free, forgiven, whole and full of peace. (Romans 10:9&10)

His name is Jesus, His title is Christ. His fi nished work is done “By” His Blood of Grace.

Amen

The people you have helped in the past will be eager to return the favor. Reconnect with former co-workers in order to find new opportunities. Revive old hobbies and activities and explore new interests. It’s time to spice up your life and try new things.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Someone else’s demands should not get in the way of your progress. Distance yourself from anyone trying to put pres-sure on you. Follow your heart and let your imagi-nation inspire you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- You need to take control of your life. Diplo-macy coupled with a stern demeanor will capture attention and help you get what you want. An opportunity will come via a former colleague.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Favors will be granted and options will be given to you. Don’t let your emotions or a stub-born attitude stand in your way. If you are proactive,

success will follow. SAGITTARIUS (Nov.

23-Dec. 21) -- Watch your step and don’t say some-thing that may be twisted or held against you. Mod-eration and keeping the peace should be your pri-orities if you want to avoid headaches.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Do your own thing. Explore your inner self. Live, learn and expe-rience life. Don’t feel com-pelled to help someone who is pressuring you into doing something question-able. Follow your intuition.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Show interest in the ones you love and dis-cuss emotional concerns or hardships that others face. Your attentiveness will be appreciated and will ensure that you get the same in return.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Visualize what you want and prepare to turn a project that interests you into something great. Don’t let someone’s self-ish attitude cause you to miss out on something that’s important to you.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Tackle a competitive challenge and see matters through to the end. Your

strength, courage and endurance will outmatch anyone who tries to mess with you. Do your own negotiating.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Plan a trip or set up a meeting that helps you take the next step toward a brighter future. Network-ing functions will lead to an interesting proposal. Romance is highlighted.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Don’t believe a smooth talker. Stick close to the people you know you can trust. Personal improvements will be your best bet. Don’t settle for less when you can have more.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Recognize and employ your ability to manipulate situations to meet your needs. You have more going for you than you realize. Add a little spice to your love life.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Emotions will mount if information is withheld. Get to the bottom of a situ-ation before it has time to escalate. Your desire and devotion will lead you to success.

Tuesday, August 30, 2016

Stick to the facts and be articulate when dealing with people who are nega-tive or critical. Trust in yourself and get involved in projects or pursuits that will help bring about posi-tive change. If you invest in something you enjoy doing, you will excel.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Arguing is a waste of time. If something isn’t working for you, you need to change it. Do what’s best for you and don’t look back. Forward motion will lead to your success.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Someone with clout will recognize your skill and talent. Procrastina-tion will lead to uncer-tainty. Don’t fear making a change. Life is about taking chances, not watch-ing it pass you by.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Participate in events that will encourage you to display what you have to offer. Collaborating with an interesting person will help you bypass someone else trying to outdo you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- You need a change. A short trip that could enlighten you regarding personal or professional situations is

August 28, 1931

Superior Judge Guy C. Cutlip granted a temporary restraining order to John D. Campbell and W.H. Franks when they filed an injunc-tion suit against the city school board to stop con-struction of the Independent school which the board has decided to rebuild and for which bids were received. Campbell’s statement to The Producer said.

“While this is in no way a split suit, we feel that the board has erred in asking for bids on the building with-out advertising the fact for the required time. Further, that a building that would have lasted many years was torn down and the district of the city is close enough for children to attend other schools of the city. With all this in mind, we do not think it necessary to spend some $5,000 in the construction of a new building.

Judge Cutlip met Sep-tember 7 as the date for the hearing on the case. James O. Seger, clerk of the school board gave The Producer this statement: “The schools of the city are full. That was clearly demonstrated last year. Now, with the new junior college added, they will be more crowded than ever. It would take two school trucks or buses to bring the 250 children at Indepen-dent to other schools. The upkeep on those would run near $3,500 a year. In less than two years time we will have more than paid for the new building.” Indepen-dent School was partially destroyed last summer by fire which originated from some unknown cause. There is $4,200 insurance on the structure which has been paid.

–oOo–First Lieutenant A.B. Ste-

phens, Seminole physician and surgeon, returned from Fort Sill where he has been on his two week tour of duty with the Oklahoma National Guard.

–oOo–“What are you going to

do Dr. Mitchell, if a group of girl students show up clad in the much maligned paja-mas and still others come in the no stocking mode?” a Producer reporter asked. “Well, son, now let’s don’t cross the bridge before we get to it. It may be that the girls don’t want to wear pajamas to school. Girls change their minds often and styles change even

oftener. Pajamas may be out of style by September 7; they came in about that suddenly. This is a minor matter and one which we have some women teachers in the school to deal with. They will make the girls see the common sense side of the whole thing.

–oOo–August 29, 1931

Six street salesmen for the Oklahoma News were arrested for disturbing the peace here. They gave their names as Ralph Nayfa, B.A. Short, Joe Butts, Leo Dunk-lin, Frank Selfa and John Donahoo, all of Oklahoma City. The salesman arrived in Seminole with the “home” edition which had been deliv-

ered earlier by regular carri-ers. The six salesmen were released after the Oklahoma News Office assured Semi-nole citizens that the office did not approve of such methods and they would not be repeated.

–oOo–Enrollment in Seminole

junior and high schools and in the new junior col-lege division will begin on Monday.

–oOo–J.C. Chadwick, city

funeral homeowner, was appointed supervisor of the city’s burial park at the council meeting. He prom-ised the cemetery would be kept in tip-top shape while he holds that position.

–oOo–J.W. Fowler, former Sem-

inole peace justice, was in county jail at Wewoka, where he had sent count-less prisoners, in default of $5,000 bond and facing charges of embezzling $6,700 of county funds.

Fowler, who has been a fugitive from justice for several months, telephoned Police Chief Jake Sims from Shawnee and gave himself up to officers. His bond was set by District Judge George C. Crump and his case will be heard on the docket at the next term of district court, the county attorney said. Fowler said he had been herding sheep in Montana.

encouraged. Don’t give in to temptation.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Take care of matters personally. No one else will do the job the way you want it done. A short trip will expand your professional options as well as your knowledge.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- You can make favorable changes in your relationships if you go the extra mile. Romantic plans will give you something to look forward to.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Don’t feel that you have to travel when you can get everything you need from the comfort of your home. You’ll avoid frustration, delays and unsavory encounters by staying put.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Slow down or you’ll miss a good deal. A chance to turn an idea into a moneymaking venture looks awesome. An update

to your appearance will boost your morale.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Don’t let your per-sonal life interfere with your work. Focus on what needs to be done if you want to get ahead. Think big and go after your goals.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- A challenge will turn out to be greater than anticipated. Think twice before you take on some-thing you will not be able to finish. Look out for your best interests.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- If you compromise a little, you will get a whole lot in return. Use your imagination to come up with solutions that will appease others and suit your needs. Think big.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Make plans to do things with the older or younger people in your life. A fun-filled event you can share with loved ones will bring you closer together.

River of Flooded Cars May be Headed North to OklahomaIn the wake of flooding in

Louisiana, AAA is warning motorists looking to pur-chase a used car to beware of flood-damaged vehicles for sale.

“We’ve seen this happen before,” said Chuck Mai, spokesman for AAA Okla-homa. “Water-damaged vehicles are moved quickly out of the flood zone, cleaned up and put into the used car market stream through private dealers, on resale sites like Craigslist and via auction houses.”

AAA has some advice for would-be used car buyers:

Deal with reputable deal-ers.

Give the vehicle the sniff test: check for any musty or damp odors inside the vehicle.

New carpeting in a used car is a dead giveaway. Pull back carpeting and look for signs of mud, dirt and water stains.

Crawl down and look up under the dashboard to see if you can find any dirt or mud.

Have a qualified auto technician put the vehicle up on a lift to check for corrosion or other tell-tale

signs of water damage under the car. To find a good tech, check the list of AAA Approved Auto Repair shops at AAA.com/AAR.

Make sure all electronic components, windows and lights work properly.

Open the hood, trunk and doors and look for signs of corrosion, dirt or discoloration on the door frames, hinges and under the weather stripping. It’s difficult to clean all these surfaces and crevices thor-oughly.

Request a Carfax report on the vehicle. It may not

indicate the car has been in a flood but it will indicate where the vehicle came from which, combined with other factors, can be a red flag. AAA members receive discounts on Carfax reports – visit AAA.com/Carfax.

“Water that invades vehicles is damaging enough,” said Mai. “But dirty flood water contains all kinds of chemicals and can be highly corrosive. Plus, remember that in Oklahoma, once you buy a used car, it’s yours. There’s no Lemon Law on used vehicles.”

In my view, God invented baseball to provide a sanctuary from the fallen world of politics. I believe I’ve missed two tele-vised Red Sox games this year. To me, the seven-month major league season is the sporting equivalent of, say, “Downton Abbey” -- a complex, seemingly endless narrative filled with surprising events and unforgettable characters.

My earliest specific baseball memory is racing into the bathroom where the old man was shaving to tell him that the Giants’ Bobby Thompson had hit a miraculous ninth-inning home run to defeat the Brook-lyn Dodgers in a one-game playoff. At first, Dad thought I’d imagined it. That was 1951, for those of you keeping score at home. However, there are older home movies of me imitating the Dodgers’ Howie Schultz at age 3.

It follows that baseball is both too impor-tant and too trivial to lie about. Even if your name is Hillary Clinton. But hold that thought.

Some years ago, I overheard my wife explain to a bossy woman friend why she allowed me to watch ball games on TV.

It went something like this:“Well, if I told him he couldn’t, he’d do

it anyway. He doesn’t tell me what I can watch on TV. Also, my Daddy was a base-ball coach, so sometimes we watch games together. Do I ever get tired of it? Sure. But there are a lot worse habits a man can have. When Gene’s watching baseball, he’s home, he’s sober and he’s not out in some titty bar with the boys.”

Sorry fellows, but she’s taken. Having spent her childhood riding in school buses all over Arkansas and Oklahoma with wisecracking teenaged baseball players, Diane’s often the woman laughing when the others are gasping for breath.

In that she somewhat resembles, believe it or not, Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton. According to everybody who knew Hillary as a child, she was a passion-ate baseball fan. Her own father, a former Penn State football player, taught her early how not to swing like a girl.

At a 1994 White House picnic celebrating Ken Burns’ documentary film “Baseball,” Hillary surprised onlookers by stepping into the batting cage and smacking a couple of pitches. The Washington Post covered the event, mentioning in passing that she’d always been a Chicago Cubs and New York Yankees fan -- like many Chicagoans for whom hating the crosstown White Sox means loving their rivals. (That’s basically how I came to the Red Sox. As a National League kid in New Jersey, Yankee-hating was in my DNA. Also, Ted Williams.)

Indeed, a 1993 Post profile of Hill-ary quoted childhood friends saying that she’d been a walking encyclopedia of Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris lore -- this before word went out among the Washing-ton press clique that shaming her as the

World’s Biggest Liar was the solemn duty of every ambitious pundit.

Now normal human beings take a person’s word about these things. But our esteemed political press corps, as my friend Bob Somerby points out in a series of witheringly funny blog posts on this solemn topic, isn’t populated by normal people.

Information and facts, he writes, “no longer play a role in our discourse ... It’s narrative all the way down! The children select a preferred group tale. Then, they all start reciting.”

And so they have on the topic of Hill-ary Clinton, baseball fan. The fun began in 1999, when the then-First Lady was contemplating running for the U.S. Senate from New York. She made the mistake of going on the “Today” show and telling Katie Couric she’d always been a Yankees fan.

The host objected. Wasn’t she a Chica-goan and a Cubs fan?

“I am a Cubs fan,” Clinton said. “But I needed an American League team ... so as a young girl, I became very interested and enamored of the Yankees.”

Without bothering to check his own newspaper’s reporting on this critical issue, a Washington Post “Style” reporter wrote that “a sleepy-eyed nation collectively hurled” at the surprising claim.

The New York Times’ Kit Seelye dubbed it “a classic Clintonian gesture.”

And they were off to the races on the Sunday shows. Famous baseball fan George Will denounced what he called a “Clintonian lie, which is say, an optional lie and an embroidered lie.” He used the word “mendacity.” Jonathan Yardley pronounced it “a magnificent example of Clintonian vulgar-ity.” Ever obliging team player Doris Kearns Goodwin used the word “sacrilege.”

And so it’s gone throughout Hillary Clin-ton’s public life. To my knowledge, not one of these elaborately offended pundits has ever admitted error on this trivial, but telling theme. As recently as July 2016, New York Times columnist Gail Collins cited the trou-bling claim as evidence that Hillary Clinton is opaque and unknowable.

Examined closely, it’s amazing how many Hillary-the-liar claims follow a similar pattern. And they wonder why she’s iffy about holding press conferences.

(Arkansas Times columnist Gene Lyons is a National Magazine Award winner and co-author of “The Hunting of the President” (St. Martin’s Press, 2000). You can email Lyons at [email protected].)

There are many things, in today’s world, that are just too touchy to talk about. For instance: U.S. politics. Years ago I told you that I wouldn’t go there but there are so many funny things that happen daily that it is hard to keep that pledge. (insert big sigh here).

Our current presidential campaign is so huge that it even over shadowed the Olym-pics. Being an Olympic freaky fan, I just find that hard to believe. Then after think-ing rationally for perhaps 30 seconds, OK, I believe it.

But the US of A has won 84 Olympic medals; 28 Gold, 28 Silver and 28 Bronze. How about that for “spreading out the field.” There have been many highlights and will probably be a few more as, at this writing, the Olympics have a few days yet to run.

Some athletes just totally dominate their field and it pays off for them. Ursain Bolt is the fastest (known) human as he has proved several times in this Olympics and in the World games (which are hardly mentioned over here).

He is the most popular and recognized person in his whole country. There is one caveat to that; Jamaica’s population is about the size of Kansas. Physically Jamaica would fit inside Kansas more than one time but I wouldn’t wish Kansas onto anybody.

However, Bolt is also recognized world-wide and will be a celebrity wherever he goes because it isn’t everyday one gets to see the world’s fastest human. And he will be celebrated for a long time - until he loses a couple of races and then the next runner will be a mega-star.

Michael Phelps, of the USA, had to buy a new suitcase to get all his medals home. Rumor has it that he was not going to be allowed to board a US bound airplane as his new suitcase would set off alarms at the air-port. I shudder to think what it would be like for him if he had to return through Los Ange-les. Oh, if he and Simone Biles tried to board the same plane, it probably could not take off for all the weight of their combined medals. I understand that gold is very heavy.

But not everything was gold for the US athletes. The US runner competing against Bolt in the one hundred meter race came in second. A certain public figure would castigate him severely as a loser because of his failure. After all, he was two one hun-dredths of a second behind. Hmmp, maybe he shouldn’t even have run if he was going to be beaten by one zillionth of an inch - or a centimeter. (I am an American, we don’t speak metric like the rest of the world).

But seriously folks, I have enjoyed every minute I could watching the Olympics. To see the incredible things some of these athletes can do just blows what I have left of a mind. The U S men’s gymnasts did not score very well and sometimes looked like they had partied hard the night before, but they were amazing anyway. A teeny tiny Chinese girl gymnast li=looked as if she had springs on her feet. She could do a double twisting triple turning quadruple somersault and when she finally returned to Earth, she bounced back up for another flip. AND- she didn’t even win gold.

Watching any of the gymnastic events always got my heart pumping. Yessir, even the Russian gymnast were worth watching. Vladimir couldn’t provide as many ways to trade altered samples for their samples so some of them actually hadn’t taken drugs for at least a week, Performance enhancing drugs, that is. When the female Russian ath-letes had to shave before a race or flipping around on the bars or pommel, one may become suspicious.

But at this Olympics all the structors were not completed in time to provide the Russians with those magic doors they had at the Sochi games. Well, actually most of their athletes were banned and got in trouble because the officials got caught switching samples.

Ah yes, this from a country, which invaded another country and then said it was because the people of the invaded country wanted them to. Russians seem to follow only the rules they want to and then make up rules for them. Not a big fan of dictators.

But not even that could dim the joy of the rest of the world. Maybe part of it was the competing athletes and spectators did not have to deal with the total arrogance of the Russians. That may have been part but just getting together with the best in the world was a great reward for those participating. For us couch quarterbacks, we could cheer as loud as we wanted and cheer our athletes to vic-tory. OK, loud only if it wasn’t late at night.

The first order of business this week for this column is to congratulate the voters of Seminole who by an almost 80% total voted down the very ill-advised school bond mea-sure put before them. This should for all time stop any and all proposals to resurrect the old Seminole High School building and stop any thoughts of a central campus on the problematic old school grounds.

The stand out and appalling feature of this voting process has been the extreme amount of childish bully tactics, lying, deception, and threats exhibited by several individuals. It is sad as I write this column to see that this delinquency continues. Kids it is now time to put aside our differences, the citizens of Seminole have spoken and the task before us now is to work together.

There are three to four possible locations for a new high school that are at least on the table and being discussed by numerous civic and business leaders. To put it to rest, no the Harvey Road location is not one of them.

That is land that needs to be sold and the money put to work other places. I learned long time ago that Seminole is blessed to have a group of very capable civic and busi-ness leaders who will work out the difficul-ties Seminole faces, and they will do their work both in and out of the public eye. In the end Seminole is always better off, especially when everyone works together.

In other educational news the Oklahoma One Percent Sales Tax, also known as State Question 779, is now on the November 8, 2016, ballot in Oklahoma as an initiated con-stitutional amendment.

On the surface it all sounds good and promises $378 million in raises for teach-ers; $125 million for higher education: $50 million for grants: $50 million: for early child-hood programs and $20 million for vocation and technology education. On paper this all sounds like a move in the right direction. As of this year the State of Oklahoma has not given across-the-board raises in eight years, and despite all of the talk during the 2016 legislative session, the legislature did not pass a single bill providing funding for pay increases for teachers.

The O.E.A. has reported that “Educa-tion will receive a 4.1% cut next year – the largest cut in decades. Over the past three years, education has received a 10% cut.” We continue to lead the nation in cutting funding for education.

The Oklahoma State School Boards Association going into this year’s school year reported, “Oklahoma school districts are trying to fill more than 500 teaching vacancies as a new school year begins despite eliminating more than 1,500 teach-ing jobs since last school year, according to a new survey from the Oklahoma State School Boards Association.

School districts also have eliminated more than 1,300 support staff positions since last school year. That includes teach-ing assistants who helped schools deal with a difficult double whammy: inexperienced teachers and growing class sizes.

“People who have never trained a day as a teacher are now responsible for teaching elementary school students how to read and do math. We have high school students who can’t take Spanish because their school can’t find a teacher. We are hemorrhaging teachers to Texas, Arkansas and Kansas,” said Shawn Hime, executive director of the Oklahoma State School Boards Associa-tion.”

As I was gathering information for this observation of the proposed penny sales tax for education one nagging question continues to come to mind. As this proposal is written there is nothing keeping the Okla-homa Legislature from adding the sales tax funds to the top of the budget and then finding ways to siphon it off the bottom, they have done it in that past. As it stands today I would not vote for the penny sales tax edu-cation.

One alternative that I have a little experi-ence with is homeschooling and it is grow-ing in popularity in Oklahoma because of the huge number of resources. Over the next couple of years it is going to be interesting to see how large the homeschooling numbers grow along with several other options.

When it comes to education of our stu-dents in the State of Oklahoma we have a long way to go. It is going to take some seri-ous thought by the members of the legisla-ture and some are going to have their hands slapped along the way. I wonder how many still know how to be a carhop.
