Fireworks may be purchased in the City of Branson from June 20 through July 10, however, they can only be discharged from 7 a.m. to midnight on July 3 and 4, unless not allowed by neighborhood homeowners associations. Fires and injury are two common results when fireworks are not used properly. “We encourage residents to follow instructions on the label of all the different types of fireworks. Fireworks should also never be held in the hand and safety glasses should always be used. It takes just seconds of ‘fun’ to lose an eye, cause burns or a traumatic injury,” said Branson Fire Chief Ted Martin. For children under the age of five, sparklers account for three-quarters of all fireworks injuries. Small children are fascinated by the bright sparks and often grab the wrong part, which can reach 1,800 degrees. ways be done under the close supervision of an adult • Never point fireworks at another person • Use fireworks only in a clear area outside away from buildings and vehicles • Never shoot fireworks in a metal or glass container • Light only one item at a time and move away quickly Branson Fire Chief Ted Martin. (FILE) Fireworks also cause thousands of fires each year across the nation. Lighters, matches and projectile type fireworks are the leading causes of fires during the Fourth of July holiday. A misguided bottle rocket, for example, could land on a roof and start a devastating fire. The Branson Fire Department offers these simple tips: • Always purchase fireworks from reliable fireworks stands that sell only Class C (common) or 1-4.G fireworks • • Follow label directions carefully and use common sense Fireworks activities should al• Always keep a water source close such as buckets of water or a garden hose to cool used fireworks completely and to extinguish any small fires. To date there are six permitted fireworks stands in Branson and three fireworks displays have been issued a permit by the fire department: July 3 Branson Landing – Fireworks show from a barge on Lake Taneycomo July 4 Chateau on the Lake Resort July 4 Treasure Lake Resort Fire department staff will be on-site at each of these events.

Our nurse Jennifer used her own ponytail holder to tie up the mother’s hair. EMTs and fire fighters helped give her privacy and clean up the area, so it was just a great group effort. So proud of our team!” July 1 - 2, 2020 • 3 The Labor and Delivery staff arrived to transport Ruiz and her baby safely to their room. Baby Paulo was checked out and was a perfect 8 lbs. 1 oz. and was 20 ½ inches long. “Everyone took amazing care of us even though our story was kind of crazy,” Ruiz says. “I’m so thankful for the staff and that Paulo is healthy due to the circumstances.” Paulo will join 2-year-old sister Lucy at home. Hospital staff says they’re just proud to be part of the family’s exciting – and very unusual – day. “I’ve been a nurse for 30 years, and we’ve never had a sidewalk story,” says Joyce Abernathy, RN. ”This one has a happy ending and we’re so happy to be part of Paulo’s life.

They clearly indicate a lack of understanding of how our government is supposed to be a government “of the people, by the people, and for the people”. “We, the people,” not “They, the people” are responsible for what happens in our country. Children need to be taught at an early age to accept personal responsibility as citizens for self and others. Without this teaching, people become like leeches, living off the lives of others. I have found that very few of the students I have taught knew the three branches of the government: executive, legislative, and judicial. They did not know that the Senate and House of Representatives make up Congress. They did not know that there are two Senators from each state and that Representatives are elected according to population based Pat Lamb. (FILE) Children need to see their parents go vote. Children need to hear their parents talk civilly about the candidates and their policies. Children need to understand that our founding fathers set up a government with checks and balances making the congressmen and congresswomen as responsible as the president for decisions that are made. on the census every ten years. Further, they did not know the meaning of checks and balances, a system set up by the founders of our country to make sure that no one branch of government has too much power. Had they known about the system of checks and balances, they would have known that the president cannot be solely blamed for mistakes nor can he solely take credit for successes. In fact, the president can do very little alone. Understanding this fact would make more people take greater consideration in the Senators and Representatives they vote for. Children need to be taught that all money coming from Washington, D.C., must first go there, and that taxpayers are the ones who send it there. They need to be told that they have a responsibility to send money to Washington, D.C. and not just think of what they can get from Washington, D.C. bransonglobe.com Train Up a Child: Children Need to Learn Personal Responsibility By Pat Lamb money goes to Washington and then comes back, it has dwindled a great deal due to the many expenses associated with counting, disbursement, etc. It would be of more personal value to keep it home in the first place. Unfortunately, many parents act as though they do not understand these facts. If parents and grandparents do not understand, how can they teach the children? Perhaps greater thought needs to be given before discussing our government in front of children. WE are the government. We govern through the people we elect. We have no right to say they are the government. We need to write letters, attend meetings held by our voted-in officials, and encourage our elected officials to govern as it was originally intended. Let’s make sure our children understand the truth about our country. If we start teaching our children about our government while they are young, perhaps they will know more when they grow up than one student I had who wrote in a paper about “President Busch”. (He knew more about Busch than he did about Bush!) (The comments on this page In fact, right now other countries are helping fund our government, making us indebted to them.

If this is you then you may have an opportunity of a life time to acquire that business. Leading investment firms seek “C” level executives who have the vision, passion and determination to grow a company through acquisitions, integration and internal growth. The letter “C” stands for chief. They are the most powerful and influential members of an organization. These executives set the company’s long-term strategy and vision. This includes CEO (chief executive officer), COO (chief operating officer or 2nd in command), CFO (chief financial officer) and other “C” level executives. Some people become confused between a CEO and a president. The president is below a CEO and is oriented towards company employees and micro decisions. The president implements policy and strategies to make the CEO’s vision reality. As a “C” level executive, you have an opportunity to own a company and aggressively build your true wealth. An investment firm will provide the required capital for you to acquire a company in your industry of expertise. You must be able to make an introduction of a company for an investment firm to acquire. Providing you qualify, you will be a “C” level executive or the CEO of the newly acquired company. If the acquisition progresses to completion and you do not qualify for a “C” level position then you will receive a generous fee for your efforts. July 1 - 2, 2020 • 7 Bob Hodgson (FILE) A qualified “C” level executive of the acquired company will have an opportunity to build your company in partnership with a leading investment firm. This is a great opportunity to build considerable personal wealth. If you choose to be the “C” level executive, you will need these qualifications: • 10 years of experience as “C” level executive in a profitable company with sales than $50M. • 20 years of industry experience. • • • Significant achievements during up & down cycles. Established network of industry contacts. Experience in defining and executing a strategic vision. There are approximately 3,000 investment firms available for this type of transaction. The role of an intermediary is to connect two parties who have not figured out that they need each other. An intermediary with first-hand knowledge of the investment firms would be able to facilitate this type of transaction according to the industry and company size.

Dept. of Conservation Bird populations are experiencing staggering declines, but there are simple things you can do to help them rebound. Helping birds also benefits our health and economy. Check out some ways you can help. One bright spot during recent quarantine days has been a renewed love and appreciation for birds. With less places to go and more time to spend, people have been rediscovering their own yards and neighboring parks and wild places. Experiencing the sights and sounds of avian life have been entertaining, edifying, and stress reducing. While our travels were curtailed, the birds spring migration was still on schedule. Migrating songbirds from exotic locations were passing through with bold colors and What might have gone unnoticed in all this birdwatching, was that there are less birds around today than 50 years ago. Significantly less. According to a recent study in the journal Science, there are nearly three billion less birds in North America since 1970. That’s almost a 30% decline. And close to a third less birds in our backyards, grasslands, and forests. Less warblers, sparrows, and finches. songs. The research used citizen bird counts like the North American Breeding Bird Survey and Audubon’s Christmas Bird Counts as well as over a decade of data from NEXRAD weather radar stations. One surprising note was the loss of abundance across nearly every habitat and the inclusion of many common species, those neighborhood dwellers and feeder visitors. Some of the major causes for these declines include loss of habitat-places where birds feed, nest, and rest on their journeys, toxic pesticides, cats, and window collisions. The good news is that once problems are identified, solutions can be applied. Past conservation SEE BIRDS, PAGE 14 July 1 - 2, 2020 • 13 Evening Grosbeak.

With about 40,000 new cases being reported a day, Fauci, the government’s top infectious disease expert, said he “would not be surprised if we go up to 100,000 a day if this does not turn around.” “I am very concerned,” he told a hearing of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions committee. Infections are rising rapidly mostly in parts of the West and South, and Fauci and other public health experts said Americans everywhere will have to start following key recommendations if they want to get back to more normal activities like going to school. “We’ve got to get the message out that we are all in this together,” by wearing masks in public and keeping out of crowds, said Fauci, infectious disease chief at the National Institutes of Health. Connect the dots, he told senators: When and how school buildbransonglobe.com Fauci: US ‘going in wrong direction’ in coronavirus outbreak ings can reopen will vary depending on how widely the coronavirus is spreading locally. “I feel very strongly we need to do whatever we can to get the children back to school,” he said.

Waterfowl hunters and private landowner efforts to restore wetlands has helped bring an increase in ducks and geese. That’s good news for bird lovers who want to help our feathered friends. Helping birds and their habitats also helps us and ours with benefits to physical and mental health, water quality, home values, and tourism. As MDC’s State Ornithologist, Sarah Kendrick says, “Birds are awesome, bird populations are declining, and there’s ways you can help. There’s something everyone can do. There are 7 simple actions you can do to help them outlined at 3billionbirds.org.” We’ve highlighted three below. Simple Ways to Help Birds • Make Windows Safer, Day and Night: Break up reflections to cut down on window strikes with stickers, film, or screens on the outside of windows. • Reduce Lawn by Planting Native Species: The U.S. has 63 million acres of lawn. Native plants attract native insects, which provide the best food for birds and their young. • Watch Birds, Share What You See: Bird watchers are one of science’s most vital sources of data on how the ecological world is faring. Join monitoring efforts like Christmas and Backyard Bird Counts.

It’s not clear if that kind of broad-stroke testing would reduce spread of the coronavirus, CDC concluded. Instead, it urged colleges to focus on containing outbreaks and exposures as students return. Lawmakers also pressed for what Sen. Patty Murray of Washington, the committee’s top Democrat, called a national vaccine plan — to be sure the race for the COVID-19 vaccine ends with shots that really are safe, truly protect and are available to all Americans who want, one. “We can’t take for granted this process will be free of political influence,” Murray said. She cited how President Donald Trump promoted a malaria drug as a COVID-19 treatment that ultimately was found to be risky and ineffective. The Food and Drug Administration released guidelines Tuesday saying any vaccine that wins approval will have to be at 50% more effective than a dummy shot in the final, required testing. That’s less effective than many of today’s vaccines but independent experts say that would be a good start against the virus. FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn said vaccine makers also must test their shots in diverse populations, including minorities, the elderly, pregnant women and those with chronic health problems. “We will not cut corners in our decision-making,” Hahn told senators. About 15 vaccine candidates are in various stages of human testing worldwide but the largest studies -- including 30,000 people each -- needed to prove if a shot really protects are set to begin in July. First up is expected to be a vaccine created by the NIH and Moderna Inc., followed closely by an Oxford University candidate. At the same time, the Trump administration’s “Operation Warp Speed” aims to stockpile hundreds of millions of doses by year’s end, so they could rapidly start vaccinations if and when one is proven to work. Redfield said the CDC already is planning how to prioritize who is first in line for the scarce first doses and how they’ll be distributed. But a vaccine is at the very least many months away. For now, the committee’s leading Republican stressed wearing a mask -- and said Trump, who notoriously shuns them, needs to start because politics is getting in the way of protecting the American people. “The stakes are too high for the political debate about pro-Trump, anti-Trump masks to continue,” said Sen. Lamar Alexander of Tennessee, who chaired Tuesday’s hearing. Alexander said he had to self-quarantine after a staff member tested positive for the virus but that he personally was protected because his staffer was wearing a mask. “The president has plenty of admirers. They would follow his lead,” Alexander said. “The stakes are too high” to continue that fight.

He was 98. Reiner’s assistant Judy Nagy said he died Monday night of natural causes at his home in Beverly Hills, California. He was one of show business’ bestliked men. The tall, bald Reiner was a welcome face on the small and silver screens: In Caesar’s 1950s troupe, as the snarling, toupee-wearing Alan Brady of “The Dick Van Dyke Show” and in such films as “The Russians Are Coming, the Russians Are Coming” and “It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World.” In recent years, he was part of the roguish gang in the “Ocean’s Eleven” movies starring George Clooney and appeared in documentaries including “Broadway: Beyond the Golden Age” and “If You’re Not in the Obit, Eat Breakfast.” Tributes poured in, with Van Dyke calling Reiner “kind, gentle, compassionate, empathetic and wise,” and Clooney saying he made “every room he walked into funnier, smarter, kinder.” Betty White described herself as privileged to work with Reiner and “heartbroken.” Steve Martin said goodbye to “my greatest mentor in movies and in life. Thank you, dear Carl.” Billy Crystal said “all of us in comedy have lost a giant,” and Sarah Silverman said ”his humanity was beyond compare.” Reiner directed such films as “Oh, God!” starring George Burns and John Denver; “All of Me,” with Martin and Lily Tomlin; and the 1970 comedy “Where’s Poppa?” His books include “Enter Laughing,” an autobiographical novel later adapted into a film and Broadway show; and “My Anecdotal Life,” a memoir published bransonglobe.com Carl Reiner, beloved creator of ‘Dick Van Dyke Show,’ dies in 2003. He recounted his childhood and creative journey in the 2013 book, “I Remember Me.” But many remember Reiner for “The Dick Van Dyke Show,” one of the most popular TV series of all time and a model of ensemble playing, physical comedy and timeless, good-natured wit. It starred Van Dyke as a television comedy writer working for a demanding, eccentric boss (Reiner) and living with his wife (Mary Tyler Moore in her first major TV role) and son. “The Van Dyke show is probably the most thrilling of my accomplishments because that was very, very personal,” Reiner once said. “It was about me and my wife, living in New Rochelle and working on the Sid Caesar show.” The pilot, written by Reiner, starred himself as Rob Petrie, and aired in July 1960. When the show was reworked (CBS executives worried Reiner would make the lead character seem too Jewish), Van Dyke was cast and the program ran from 1961 to 1966. One famous fan, Orson Welles, was SEE REINER, PAGE 17 ׉ 7cassandra://zahEUjm_0cCv-Zhp7N9Egh49j3RnqrRfb08yGR5-jM0{`^a, k~׉E bransonglobe.com ENTERTAINMENT • REINER Continued from page 16 known for rushing to his bedroom in the afternoon so he could be near a TV when the show was on. “Although it was a collaborative effort,” Van Dyke later wrote, ”everything about the show stemmed from his (Reiner’s) endlessly and enviably fascinating, funny, and fertile brain and trickled down to the rest of us.” The story line had Petrie as the head writer for “The Alan Brady Show,” a comedy-variety series not unlike “Your Show of Shows,” in which Reiner, as Brady, was the egocentric star. Petrie’s fellow writers were character actors Morey Amsterdam as Buddy Sorrell and Rose Marie as Sally Rogers. It was an early parody of the Caesar show, which would later be dramatized in the film “My Favorite Year” and Neil Simon’s play “Laughter on the 23rd Floor.” Besides acting in and producing the “Van Dyke” series, Reiner wrote or co-wrote dozens of episodes. Although the show was the best of good clean fun, it wasn’t clean enough for network censors. Reiner often battled network officials over the sleeping arrangements of Rob and his wife; the Petries slept in twin beds. He wanted them to sleep in a double bed. Reiner joined the classic comedy revue “Your Show of Shows” in 1950 after performing in Broadway plays. Much of Reiner’s early work came as a “second banana” — although, as Caesar once put it, “Such bananas don’t grow on trees.” He performed in sketches — satirizing everything from foreign films to rock ‘n’ roll — and added his talents to a writing team that included Brooks, Simon, Woody Allen and Larry Gelbart. “As second banana,” he told TV Guide, “I had a chance to do just about everything a performer can ever get to do. If it came off well, I got all the applause. If it didn’t, the show was blamed.” Reiner was the father of actor-director Rob Reiner, who starred as Archie Bunker’s son-in-law on “All in the Family” and directed “When Harry Met Sally...” Rob Reiner said in a tweet Tuesday that his “heart is hurting. He was my guiding light.” Carl Reiner was born in 1922, in New York City’s Bronx borough, one of two sons of Jewish immigrants. He grew up in a working-class neighborhood, where he learned to mimic voices and tell jokes. After high school, Reiner attended drama school, then joined a small theater group. He married his wife, Estelle, in 1943. Besides son Rob, the couple had another son, Lucas, a film director, and a daughter, Sylvia, a psychoanalyst and author. Estelle Reiner, who died in 2008, had a small role in Rob Reiner’s “When Harry Met Sally...” — as the woman who overhears Meg Ryan play-acting in a restaurant and says, “I’ll have what she’s having.” July 1 - 2, 2020 • 17 In this April 7, 2017 file photo, Carl Reiner, left, and his son Rob Reiner pose together following their hand and footprint ceremony at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Los Angeles.

(AP) — A Wisconsin family helped save a young bear that was struggling to breathe while swimming in a lake with its head caught in a plastic food container. Tricia and Brian Hurt and their son, Brady, were fishing Saturday on Marsh Miller Lake in western Wisconsin’s Chippewa County when they came across what they first thought was a swimming dog. They soon realized, though, that it was a young bear with a clear plastic cheese ball container stuck on its head. Their first attempt to pull the tub off the bear’s head failed, but another try was successful. They captured the rescue on video. “That was the thing I remember most, is that bear panting heavily, trying to get air. Can you imagine having that down in the water, it sealed it off so it couldn’t get fresh air into that jug?” said Brian Hurt. Tricia Hurt said if they had been two minutes sooner or later, they likely wouldn’t have come across the bear. “I should have bought a lottery ticket,” Brian Hurt said. “I probably would have better chances at winning the lottery ticket than stumbling across that poor bear.” The Hurts then went to a nearby resort, where some people had watched the rescue and told them the bear had been that way for at least a few days. Locals had been trying to figure out how get the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources to help it. Brian Hurt estimated the bear was a year old and likely still with it’s mother. They watched it all the way until it got to shore. “We heard it fall and collapse on shore so I knew it was safe at that point,” he said, speculating that the bear would have drowned if they hadn’t been there to help. Doorbell camera catches parking lot birth in Florida MARGATE, Fla. (AP) — This was not one of those delivery videos that some pregnant moms plan for. A Florida birthing center says an expectant mother was a few steps from entering the building but her baby couldn’t wait. She gave birth while standing up outside, with a midwife catching the baby and a doorbell camera catching all the action. The Miami Herald reports that Susan Anderson already felt the need to push as her husband drove them to the Natural Birthworks center in Margate. The RING video, shared on Facebook, shows what happened next. Anderson stands in a T-shirt, maternity shorts and flip-flops, with her husband supporting her and the midwife crouching just behind. “She’s OK, She’s OK,” Sandra Lovaina, tells two arriving officers. “It’s OK. I’m the midwife. She is going to have a baby.” And then a moment later, out she comes — a baby girl that Lovaina catches and passes between the legs to the mom. She cradles the girl they’ve named Julia against her chest, and says “sorry” before gasping in tears and smiles. “This momma had a super fast labor,” the center said on June 23. It said the video was being shared with permission, and both baby and mother are doing fine. Police reel in Louisiana man captured swimming in fish tank BOSSIER CITY, La. (AP) — Police in Louisiana were able to reel in a man captured on video swimming through a fish tank at a sporting goods store. Kevin Wise, 26, told KSLA-TV that he plunged into the indoor aquarium at a Bass Pro Shop in Bossier City last week to follow through on a promise he made to followers on the social media platform TikTok. “I said that if I got 2,000 likes I would jump in the tank,” Wise said. “I got way more than that and didn’t want to be a liar.” A video captured by shopper Treasure McGraw showed Wise swimming through the tank before climbing out and running from the store with wet clothes. “We heard a big splash and I thought it was one of the fish,” McGraw told the news outlet. “My fiancé was like ‘somebody is in the tank’ and we saw the guy swimming.” Bass Pro Shops filed a complaint with the Bossier City Police Department Friday, saying it cost them money to empty out the 13,000 gallon aquarium and clean it after Wise’s swim, KTAL-TV reported. bransonglobe.com Wise was charged with simple criminal damage to property and released with a citation to appear in court, police said. He told KSLA-TV he planned on continuing to make videos for his followers, but cautioned others against doing similar “spur of the moment” pranks. 3 injured when boat, humpback whale collide in Alaska waters JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) — Three people on a recreational boat were injured, one seriously, after it collided with a humpback whale, Monday.
