are varied and promise to be very entertaining.

TICKETS for the 2014 Miss Walters Pageant went on sale Saturday, March 22, 2014 and may be purchased from Lisa Mumford at Lager-burger’s Office before pageant day or at the door pageant evening. Ticket prices are $8.00 each and all seats are reserved.

Third and Hough were evacu-ated. There were at least 60 homes evacuated. The leak was between Oklahoma and Kansas in the alley.

City Crews were working

on the sewer line in the al-ley between Oklahoma and Kansas Street when, what the crew thought was a dead line ruptured, leaking at a high rate. The call went into the department at 9:15 a.m. Emergency procedures went into effect. Emergency crews from all over Cotton County began knocking on doors and getting folks out of their homes. Assistant Fire Chief Clarence Bivins said, “ Any-time you can hear that much gas coming out of a spot like that, it’s going up in the air and I’d rather take precau-tions and not have somebody a block over start their car and blow up,” “We had all kinds of different reactions from ‘I gotta finish my bath’ to ‘OMG can I grab my dogs’ it was just from panic to really unaware,” said Bivins. “ I’d

rather overdo it than underdo it and someone get hurt. As it worked out we didn’t have any problems,” Bivins said.

Randy Shoemaker lives just yards away from the leak, and he said crews were effec-tive during the not-so-routine morning. “Don’t be alarmed about it, just get your stuff and get out, that’s kinda what it was about.” “Within prob-ably an hour, they had eve-rybody out of there. It’s been back and forth here, people running over their gas meters and stuff but nothing to this extent,” said Shoemaker.

According to Bivins the reason it took 3 to 3.5 hours to get a crew to Walters to repair the line. “Overall I think it went really good. We all just worked together,” Bivins said. “The important thing is nobody got hurt and

our residents returned safely back in their homes..”

Work in the alleyway re-sumed and the Oklahoma Gas crew was working Thursday afternoon to replace the old metal pipe with plastic tub-ing to prevent another leak in that location. Thursday after-noon emergency crews could hang their hats for the day feeling a little more prepared for the next big emergency.

“It was excellent training for our guys for when the real-ly bad one does happen; we’re not out there running around in circles,” said Bivins.

City Manager John Shep-pard said they followed proce-dure, but in the future the city will be looking at excavation and emergency management procedures.

Polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Tuesday, April 1, for the City of Walters Municipal General Election and Shellie Hart, Secretary of the Cotton County Election Board, offered voters some tips on how to make their votes count.

Hart said that a valid marking---a filled-in box---is shown on posters at the polling place and inside the voting booths. If voters make mistakes marking their bal-lots, Hart said they should not try to correct those er-rors. Instead, voters should return the spoiled ballot to the Precinct Officials, who will destroy it and issue a new ballot to the voter.

Hart also urged voter to take their voter identification cards with them to the polls.

“Your voter identification card or a valid federal or state issued identification is required in order for you to cast a ballot on Election Day. Otherwise, a provisional bal-lot must be cast and it will be up to the County Election Board to decide whether the ballot will be allowed to be cast or not.”

Voters whose names are not found in the Precinct Registry, or a voter who disa-grees with the information shown in the Registry, may also need to cast a provisional

Registered voters in Cotton County who want to vote by mail absentee ballot in next Tuesday’s City of Walters Municipal General Election have missed the application deadline, County Election Board Secretary, Shellie Hart, said today.

“They aren’t out of luck, however,” Hart said.

Voters who want to cast absentee ballots still can do so at the County Election Board

office on Thursday, March 27 or Friday, March 28. A two-member, Bipartisan Ab-sentee Voting Board will be on duty both Thursday and Friday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. to assist absentee voters.

“In-person absentee voters fill out an application form when they get to the office. They are not required to give a reason for voting absentee,” Hart said. “They are required to swear that they have not

voted a regular mail absentee ballot and that they will not vote at their polling places on Election Day.”

According to Hart, the absentee voting board veri-fies a voter’s registration information and then issues the voter’s ballots. The voter marks the ballots in a voting booth and then puts them in the voting device. “It is very much like voting a precinct polling place,” said Hart.

Also be advised that the voter must present either their voter registration card or a federal or state issued picture id that shows the voter’s name as it appears on the registration with the county election board.

Voters must also reside in the municipal or school district holding the election to be eligible to vote.

Contact the County Elec-tion Board, located on the first floor of the Cotton County Courthouse, Room 2, for more information. The telephone number is 580-875-3403.

Polls will be open Tuesday, April 1, for the City of Walters Municipal General Election

ballot. A provisional ballot is sealed in a special envelope and counted after Election Day if the voter’s information can be verified by the County Election Board.

Hart said that voters who want to get through the line quickly should vote at mid-morning or mid-afternoon, because those usually are the

two slowest periods for voting during the day.

Hart also reminded voters that they must reside inside the valid school district or municipal ward to be eligible to vote in those elections.

“Anyone who is eligible and in line at the polling place at 7 p.m. on Tuesday will be entitled to vote,” she added.

Thank You To Lawton Rebekah Lodge #87

The Walters Community Food Pantry (WCFP) would like to thank the Lawton Rebekah Lodge #87 for their generous financial gift. The WCFP has been operating since November 2011 and is solely supported by local churches, businesses and giving people. The food pantry is run completely by volunteers and there are no paid staff.

Oklahoma, March 24- Av-erage retail gasoline prices in Oklahoma have fallen 1.3 cents per gallon in the past week, averaging $3.36/g yesterday, according to Gas-Buddy’s daily survey of 2,294 gas outlets in Oklahoma. This compares with the national average that has not moved in the last week to $3.51/g, according to gasoline price website GasBuddy.com.

Including the change in gas prices in Oklahoma dur-ing the past week, prices yesterday were 6.6 cents per gallon lower than the same day one year ago and are 10.0 cents per gallon higher than

Oklahoma Weekly Gas Price Update and Outlooka month ago. The national average has increased 10.2 cents per gallon during the last month and stands 13.0 cents per gallon lower than this day one year ago.

“As I expected, the panic at the pump slowed consider-ably in the last week, with the national barely grinding out an increase in the last week, “ said GasBuddy.com Senior Petroleum Analyst Patrick DeHaan. “A cooling in oil pric-es during the previous week heavily influenced last week’s quieter increase. While oil prices haven’t moved much higher, we are starting to see more chatter about refinery

incidents as more of them finish maintenance and get back online, and this can lead to spikes in gasoline prices if several refineries see unex-pected outages or longer than normal return to production times, so motorists should be vigilant that while I don’t expect prices across the na-tion to spike significantly, it’s a risk that’s on the table, “ DeHaan said.

US-70 will be closed to through traffic east of SH-36 near Grandfield in Tillman County from Tuesday, March

GasBuddy, the online Community that gives people control over how much they spend at the pump, released today an updated version of its popular mobile app for iPhone and Android. The update allows drivers to find and report gas prices based on cash and credit in markets that commonly price gas dif-ferently for each payment method.

“With credit card compa-nies charging 2 to 3 percent of the price per gallon, some gas stations in places like California, New York and Florida are choosing to pass the savings onto customers that pay by cash,” said Jason Toews, co-founder of Gas-Buddy. “Total savings often range from 5 to 15 cents per gallon when drivers use cash instead of credit.”

New Feature Allows Drivers to Save Even More on Gas

Additional markets with gas stations that commonly price gas differently based on payment method include: New Jersey, Michigan, Wash-ington, Connecticut, South Carolina, Massachusetts, Maryland, Nevada, Oregon and Washington DC. The cash/credit report feature of the GasBuddy mobile app is now available to drivers in all of these markets.

“With more than 8,600 gas stations offering cash/credit pricing, this new feature will give drivers more flex-ibility and more purchasing options when it comes to finding a deal,” said Toews. “We don’t see gas prices drop-ping anytime soon, especially as refineries switch over to more expensive summer for-mulas. This upgrade to the GasBuddy app is just in time

to help drivers save money on their spring break or summer road trips.”

Drivers can find cash and credit prices in their area by searching for gas stations using the iPhone or Android app. A ‘cash’ icon will appear next to the gas price when a cash discount is available.

The GasBuddy mobile app update also includes a refreshed design to save driv-ers time finding and report-ing gas prices. In addition to faster screen load time, users can save time by:

•Reporting prices as cor-rect or not with one click;

•Spotting where they are in relation to the station without having to leave the app; and

•Adding favorite stations by clicking the heart icon at the top of the station page.

ada. In addition, GasBuddy offers a free smartphone app which has been downloaded over 25 million times to help motorists find the lowest gasoline prices in their area.

1 John 1:3“We proclaim to you what

we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellow-ship with us. And our fellow-ship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ,”

Aren’t you looking forward to the fellowship that awaits us in heaven? Indeed, as we reflect on the fellowship that we enjoy by virtue of the cross of Christ, we find that it is a fellowship we cannot and should not keep to ourselves. We need to invite our friends to be part of this wonderful fellowship.

The person God uses to invite others to the fellow-ship is one who is willing to share how God has touched their life.

God doesn’t necessarily use the knowledgeable person, or the talented person, or even the pious person, but will always use the willing person.

Here are the top five rea-sons people do not reach out to others:

1. “I don’t know enough.”A hurting neighbor doesn’t

care how much you know, they just want to know how much you care. God doesn’t necessarily use the knowl-edgeable ones, but He always uses the willing ones.

2. “I’m not an evangelist.”After surveying 10,000

“Fellowship”people, the Institute for American Church Growth concluded that 79% began attending church after receiv-ing an invitation from a friend or relative. Only 6% were at-tracted by the pastor, 5% by the Sunday school and 0.5% by an evangelistic crusade.

3. “I don’t know any non-Christians.”

You know more than you think. I do not know if you knew this but the number of unchurched people is growing every year. In his book, Surprising Insights from the Unchurched, Tom Rainer tells us that only 41% of Americans attend church services on a typical weekend. Each new generation becomes increasingly unchurched. Slightly over one half (51%) of the builder generation (born before 1946) attends church, but only 41% of the boomers (born 1946-1964) and 34% of the busters (born 1965-1976) attend church. The younger generation, the bridgers (born 1977-1994), indicates that only 30% attend church.

4. “I don’t want to appear to be ’pushy.’”

In one survey of non-church attenders, it was revealed that 65% said they would respond favorably to an invitation from a friend. 15% said they would respond

favorably to an invitation from a stranger!

5. “My walk with God isn’t all it should be.”

The Bible tells us that if we will seek to share our faith with others, our walk with God is strengthened.

“I pray that you may be active in sharing your faith, so that you will have a full understanding of every good thing we have in Christ.” You don’t have to be a spiritual giant in order to share your faith. You just have to be willing.

Do you love your fellow-ship? Are you proud of your church? Are you aware of how many people stand in need of the love and comfort you can share with them? Each of us who have accepted the invitation to know intimate fellowship with God through faith in Christ is part of a fellowship of faith, which is commissioned by our Lord to invite others to know the fel-lowship we enjoy and share. As we celebrate that which has made our salvation from sin and our fellowship with the Savior possible may we commit ourselves before God to reach out to a lost world. The question is are you will-ing.

The Calvary Baptist ChurchPastor Phillip Beard

Oklahoma City, Monday, March 17,2014— The Ameri-can Red Cross announced its new Flood App to help save lives and reduce losses from floods and flash floods.

This free app gives iPhone, iPad and Android smart phone users instant access to local and real-time informa-tion, so they know what to do before, during and after a flood. The content is available in English and Spanish based on the user’s language set-tings on their mobile device. The app includes location-based, audible NOAA flood and flash flood watches and warnings – even if the app is closed.

“Floods are the most com-mon natural disaster in the United States, and people can use the Red Cross app to create emergency plans so all household members know what to do if flooding threatens,” said Janienne Bella, Central and Western Oklahoma Region CEO. “The audible alerts in the app can save lives - even when users are away from a radio or TV.”

Other features of the app include:

• One-touch “I’m safe” messaging that allows users to send a message letting family and friends know that they are out of harm’s way;

• Preloaded content that gives users instant access to critical action steps, even without mobile connectivity;

• Toolkit with flashlight, strobe light and audible alarm to let others know where you are;

• Locations of open Red Cross shelters;

• Real-time recovery re-sources for returning home and cleaning up; and

• Badges users can earn through interactive quizzes and share on social networks.

The new Red Cross Flood App is being released during National Flood Safety Aware-ness Week, which runs from March 16-22.

“National Flood Safety Awareness Week is the per-fect time to download the app and to start preparing,” added Bella.

The app is the latest in the series of Red Cross emer-gency preparedness apps that put lifesaving information right in the hands of people whenever and wherever they need it. The expert advice in Red Cross apps, which also includes apps for First Aid, tornadoes, hurricanes, wild-fires, earthquakes and other services, has been used to help save lives during disasters and medical emergencies.

Red Cross apps have been downloaded on nearly 4 mil-lion mobile devices.

The Flood App, along with the others, can be found in the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store for Android by searching for American Red Cross or by going to red-cross.org/mobileapps. Apps can help prepare people for disasters, but they are not a substitute for training. Red Cross First Aid and CPR/AED training empowers people to know how to respond to emergencies in case advanced medical help is delayed. Peo-ple can visit redcross.org/takeaclass for course informa-tion and to register.

The Red Cross responds to nearly 70,000 disasters each year and helps people get ready to respond to emer-gencies by providing these preparedness apps for free. The Red Cross needs the help of the public to continue this lifesaving effort. People can make a donation to the Red Cross by going to redcross.org, texting REDCROSS to 90999 or by calling 1-800-RED-CROSS.

Precious Words of WisdomBy: LaOna Gonzales

First Christian ChurchWalters,Oklahoma

Pastor: Jeff Hooser

Have you ever stopped to think of how important your words are? Did you know that there are ears listening to what you say or don’t say? What comes out of your mouth is the most important factor of whether you are a winner or a loser.

Heaven is listening to us just as Hell is listening to the words that we speak. When we speak the Word of God we are made over-comers of eve-rything that is against God. If we speak negative words then all of Hell is listening to us, and they will react. Their god is the devil, and he comes to steal, kill, and destroy.(John 10:10)

If you’ll remember when the devil tried to take over Heaven, and tried to set him-self up higher than God he had begun to look upon his own beauty, and not the One Who had created him. He had the big idea that he was greater than God Almighty. Well, he

Prior to Jesus’ crucifixion He was on trial before Pilate the governor and was asked the following: “Then Pilate said to him, “So you are a king?” Jesus answered, “You say that I am a king. For this purpose I was born and for this purpose I have come into the world—to bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth listens to my voice.” Pilate said to him, “What is truth?” John 18:37–38 (ESV)

Many people today are asking the same question that Pilate did all those years ago, “What is truth?” Of course, in our progressive society the trend is to believe that there is no such thing as absolute truth, instead the common belief is that truth is “rela-tive”. What does that mean? Well, “relative truth” is truth that is true at only one time and at one place. It’s true to some people and not to others. It’s true now but it may not have been true in the past and it may not be again in the future, it’s always subject to

The Importance Of The Word Of God

got his come-uppance when God got through with him.

Did you know that through the Blood of Jesus, and by the power of the Holy Ghost that you can give him a similar treatment to what God gave him? The Bible says in James 4:7, “Submit yourselves there-fore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.(KJV) Now, if you’ll notice, there are 3 steps here. The first two steps are for you: Submit to God and Resist the devil. Then the third step is the devil’s part…..he will flee from you. It doesn’t say that he will flee from Jesus. He’s already been put down by Jesus!

We have to stand up to him, in the Name of Jesus, and quote the Word of God to him! Then he won’t only flee, he’ll run like a train going down the track at a high rate of speed. He can’t handle it when we put the Word on him, by the power and authority given

to us to overcome him and all of Hell with him.

You see, he knows he’s al-ready been whipped, but we have to know that we can whip him out of our lives, because God is our Father, and He has given us the same authority that Jesus was given. And that authority is in the Name of Jesus, and our speaking the Word of God!

Jesus tells us in John 6:63b, “the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.”(KJV) Assur-edly, they are life, because He tells us in John 14:6, “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”(KJV) Jesus died upon the cross, but just as He had told His disciples: “I will arise on the third day; He did!” And, He is alive forevermore. He, also, told us that if we would give up our lives for Him and the Kingdom of Heaven that we would live forever with Him.

That is one of the greatest promises that He could have ever given to all mankind.

But, once again, that is a choice that we have been given: either choose life or death. God in His wis-dom gave man the choice of whether we would follow after the Son, or follow after the fallen angel, the devil. But, I like what Joshua told us in Joshua 24:15, “And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom ye will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”(KJV)

We need to follow after the example that Jesus gave, and speak the words that He spoke. Then, what comes out of our mouths will defeat the devil every time. Just as the elderly generation used to tell their children: You’re known by the words that you speak, whether the truth or a lie.

Remember we love you and are praying for you at the Open Door Church of God, where GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME!!!

Truth Is A Person

change. It is also subject to the perspective of people. Is it just me, or does that sound ridiculous to you? You may have heard someone say, “What is true for you may not be true for me”. This is the essence of “relativism” and it prevents people from facing the fact that there is a source of absolute truth in the universe.

Why would seeming rea-sonable people believe in a ridiculous concept like “rela-tive truth”? Well, it allows them to make up their own truth and belief system—one that they feel is right for them. They don’t have to subject themselves to a rigid absolute that may make them feel uncomfortable or insist that they change the way they think. They do not have to search for genuine truth, they can just make it up as they go. Choosing to believe lies like this is just what fallen people do that reject God, and unfortunately even a few that call themselves Christians.

On the other hand, “abso-lute truth” says that whatever is true at one time and at one place is true at all time’s and at all places. What is true for one person is true for all per-son’s. Truth is true whether we believe it or not. Truth is discovered or it is revealed, it is not invented by a culture or by religious people. This is the kind of truth that Jesus was referring to when He was talking to Pilate. The Bible makes it clear that there is only one source of absolute truth and that is the Word of God. It is the standard of truth and any idea or way of thinking that is contrary to it is a lie by definition. Believing this fact is becoming more and more unpopular by the day.

Most genuine Christians would acknowledge that the Word of God is the source of absolute truth, but we tend to focus on the concepts and the principles in the Bible rather than focusing on the Person who was the Word of God made flesh (John 1:14).

You see, it is possible to know the Scriptures backwards and forwards, but still not know the One who is the Truth. We can become an “expert” on the Bible, but never have a relationship with the One the Bible is pointing us to (there are many such people in seminaries). Jesus said, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” John 14:6 (ESV) Truth is not a set of idealogical concepts to live your life by. Truth is a living Person. Jesus Christ is the embodiment of Truth. To truly know and love the Truth is to know Jesus for yourself—not just informa-tion about Him. We do this by spending time with Him. We devote part of each day to focusing our complete at-tention on Him and allowing Him to reveal Himself to us through His Word. It is in these times that we learn to hear His voice more clearly and develop a love for the Truth. There is a promise in the Bible to those who seek to find God who is the source of truth in Jeremiah 29:13, “You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart.” (ESV)

Psalm 5:12 (KJV) For thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.

ports struggling blood centers abroad.

Donors with OBI provide every drop of blood needed by patients in Comanche County Memorial, Southwestern Medical Center, Reynolds Army Community Hospital, US Public Health Service Lawton Indian Hospital and some 140 other medical facilities across the state. One in every seven people entering a hospital will need blood. There is no substitute for human blood, and it has a limited time for use. That is why some 600 donors are needed each day, according

to OBI.Of those eligible to donate

blood in the U.S., only about ten percent actually do. Each donation can save as many as three lives. Donations can be made every 56 days.

Appointment to donate are not required but can be made by calling 877-340-8777 or visiting obi.org.

Starting this month, tor-nado risk ramps up

OKLAHOMA – Oklahoma sees an average of about 55 tornadoes per year, according to the National Weather Serv-ice. Strong winds, hail and other acts of nature can cause major damage – or even de-struction – for homeowners.

Although there is no fool-proof method for safeguard-ing your home and your fam-ily from severe weather, there are some precautions that will help minimize a potential tornado’s negative effects. The Oklahoma Association of REALTORS® (OAR) is of-fering tips for preparing your home for tornado season.

“As Oklahomans living in Tornado Alley, we all know severe weather is something we have to take very seri-ously, especially following last year’s heartbreaking storm season,” said Mary Terry, OAR president. “Any home may be subject to a storm’s effects, but there are a few tips and tricks we can all incorporate to help minimize

Oklahoma Association of Realtors® Offers Tips For Preparing Your Home For Severe WeatherOklahoma Association of REALTORS® offers tips for preparing your home for severe weather

property damage this spring.”OAR is offering tips for

homeowners to get their homes in order before the se-vere weather hits this season:

Have a good roof over your head. High winds, heavy rains and hail can create a “perfect storm” for your roof. Make sure your roof is in good repair and there are no loose shingles to minimize potential water leaks. Roofs should be replaced about every 20 years, so if you’re in the market for a new roof, consider an impact-resistant option.

Build a shelter. Building a storm shelter can not only help protect your family dur-ing a tornado, but it can also be a good investment for your home. In many cases, home-owners who have storm shel-ters professionally installed can see up to two-thirds re-turn on that investment. Also, be sure to check for available rebates on installation.

Brush up your landscap-ing. Flying debris caused by falling tree branches and

other vegetation can dam-age roofs, break through windows and even injure peo-ple. Throughout the spring months, make sure to cut back hedges and trim any heavy tree limbs that have potential to break under pressure.

Keep it all tied down. If possible, bring outdoor fur-niture inside or anchor it with ties to your home. This will not only minimize flying debris, but it will help protect your outdoor belongings from blowing away or sustaining heavy damage. If you have operating shutters, close and secure them in order to safeguard the shutters and your windows.

Have a game plan. As they say, there’s no outsmarting Mother Nature. No matter how many precautions home-owners take, damage to your home is possible. Make sure you have a plan in place for a safe, central location in your home where your fam-ily will meet in the event of severe weather and have a radio, first aid kit, cell phone charger, crucial medications and any other emergency items you may need on hand.

STILLWATER, Okla. – For many years, researchers around the globe have been searching for viable ways to produce biofuels.

This is true for Oklahoma State University Biobased Products and Energy Center (BioPEC) faculty members, who strive to enhance exist-ing, and develop new, biocon-version technologies. Hasan Atiyeh, assistant professor in biosystems and agricul-tural engineering, recently received a South Central Sun Grant Award to advance the development of a new hybrid conversion process.

“The hybrid gasification-syngas fermentation technol-ogy, when further developed, has the potential to provide 35 percent more biofuel from the same amount of biomass compared to other available conversion technologies,”

Researcher changing traditional biofuel processBy Sean Hubbard

he said. “For example, the use of the hybrid technology is expected to reduce the production cost of cellulosic ethanol by 16 cents per gal-lon compared to the sugar platform.”

Biorefineries have an op-portunity to save millions of dollars every year through this technology.

“If biofuel producers adopt the hybrid technology to pro-duce 25 percent of the man-dated 16 billion gallons per year of renewable transporta-tion fuels, a projected savings of more than $650 million per year can be achieved due to the use of 13.1 million tons less biomass with the hybrid technology,” he said.

It is not just producers who could greatly benefit, as establishing biorefiner-ies in both rural and urban environments will enhance

local economic development, provide employment and be a step toward a sustainable and secure energy supply.

With a biomass feedstock, such as switchgrass, redcedar or agricultural residues, and a daily consumption of 1,000 metric tons of biomass, ap-proximately 39 million gal-lons per year of ethanol would be produced.

“This would result in 100 direct jobs and about 500 indirect positions created or induced by this process, resulting in a very positive impact on Oklahoma’s rural economy,” he said. “In addi-tion, this technology has the potential to be applied to simi-lar microbial strains that can produce butanol and hexanol, which can be upgraded to diesel and jet fuels.”

The deadline to sign up for health insurance is March 31st! We’re sure you’re al-ready signed up - but what about your friends and fam-ily? We’ve compiled a list of the main reasons why they should get covered before March 31st.

Here’s why Oklahomans should get covered:

It’s affordable. Four out of every five people who have signed up have been eligible for financial assistance. See what you could save.

You won’t be turned away. No matter your age, your gender, or your previ-ous health issues, you’ll be offered good coverage at an affordable price. That’s why

March 31 is almost here! Are you covered?

when Oklahomans who’ve been uninsured for decades or been denied coverage because of pre-existing conditions find out they can buy an affordable plan, “they’re ecstatic.”

You can’t afford not to. Medical debt is the single largest cause of bankruptcy in the US. No one’s financial future should be destroyed by an accident or illness.

People with health insur-ance have better health out-comes than people without. Oklahoma is an unhealthy state. We can do better - by getting covered.

There’s a financial penalty for people who don’t sign up by March 31st. Which makes more sense: paying a fine, or

getting health insurance? (We’ll help you out: it’s the latter.)

Health insurance is re-quired to cover everything from newborn care to mental illness. If you’re insured, you’re better equipped to take on everything life throws at you. This means better peace of mind for everyone - your-self, your family, and your community.

But wait! There’s more:Not sure where to start?

OK Policy has some great resources available. Check out our health insurance mar-ketplace fact sheet, and click here to find more resources and information on health insurance in Oklahoma.

Time is running out. After March 31, with some excep-tions, health insurance en-rollment will be closed until November. Tell everyone to enroll now: it’s better for them, better for you, and bet-ter for Oklahoma. It’s time to get covered.

WALTERS BANK & TRUSTATM, Credit and Debit Cards:WHAT TO DO IF THEY’RE LOST OR STOLENMany people find it easy and convenient to use credit cards and ATM or debit cards.

Learn How to Limit Your Financial Loss:Report the loss or theft of your cards to the card issuers as quickly as possible. It’s a good idea to follow up your call with a letter. Include when you noticed your card missing, and the day you first reported it.

* Don’t carry your PIN in your wallet or purse or write it on your ATM or debit card.* Never write your PIN on the outside of a deposit slip, envelope, or other papers that could be easily lost or seen.* Periodically check your account activity. This is particularly important if you bank on line. Compare the current balance and recent withdrawals or transfers to those you’ve recorded, including your current ATM and debit card withdrawals and purchases and your recent checks. If you notice transactions you didn’t make, or if your balance has dropped suddenly without activity by you, immediately report the problem to your bank or card issuer.

“ADMISSION IS FREE”

STILLWATER, Okla. – For more than 30 years, Oklaho-mans who are engaged in the agricultural industry have been able to enhance their leadership skills through their participation in the Oklahoma Agricultural Lead-ership Program (OALP).

With the recent completion of OALP Class XVI, it is time begin accepting applications for individuals interested in becoming members of OALP Class XVII.

Since its inception in 1982, OALP has grown to 453 alum-ni. The program continues to grow and offer class members new and exciting opportuni-ties, said Edmond Bonjour, OALP director. The alumni are very supportive when the class visits their area of the state.

“Our overall goal for the OALP is to further develop emerging leaders for Okla-homa agriculture,” Bon-jour said. “We develop our leaders through a series of seminars and study tours over a 20-month period. We also expose participants to cutting-edge changes that are occurring in the agriculture industry and agri-business.”

OALP Class XVII now accepting applicationsBy Trisha Gedon

OALP has been recognized as one of Oklahoma’s top lead-ership programs for emerging agricultural leaders. The program is open to Oklahoma men and women between the ages of 25 and mid-40s to early 50s who are engaged in production agriculture or a related agricultural business.

Applications for OALP’s Class XVII are available online at http://oalp.okstate.edu. The deadline for submit-ting an application and letters of reference is May 1. Those interested are encouraged to apply early. The class size is limited to 30 participants.

Bonjour said the 20-month program consists of 10 three-day seminars and study tours within Oklahoma, one three-day seminar in north-ern Oklahoma and Kansas, a seven- to eight-day seminar in Pennsylvania and Wash-ington, D.C., and a two-week international experience near the end of the program. The first seminar is slated for August 2014.

Class members will have the opportunity to interact with knowledgeable indi-viduals who fill prominent leadership roles at the local,

state, regional, national and international levels.

“We have three basic ob-jectives in OALP. First, the program is designed to help potential leaders develop a deeper and fuller apprecia-tion of people,” Bonjour said. “While members of previous classes began the program with some leadership skills, they completed the class with an even broader understand-ing and appreciation of people throughout the United States and the world.”

The second objective of the program is designed to help potential leaders develop a better understanding of basic systems of economics and government. Many of the opportunities and problems facing agriculture today are economic in nature. In addi-tion, many of the solutions to economic problems and eco-nomic opportunities exist be-yond the borders of Oklahoma and beyond the boundaries of the United States.

The third objective is to help OALP participants uti-lize their understanding of people and their knowledge of systems of economics and government to solve problems

and exploit opportunities for the state’s agricultural industry.

OALP Class XVI recently returned from a two-week trip to South Africa.

For more information about OALP, please call Bon-jour at 405-744-8134, email at edmond.bonjour@okstate.edu or visit the OALP website at http://oalp.okstate.edu.
