Kander invites Missourians to review the 2015 Legislative Session through the Missouri Channel Memorial Day is for Honoring, Remembering Memorial Day is often called and thought of as the unofficial start to summer. However, Memorial Day is not about barbecues and lounging by the pool, it is about honoring the sacrifices brave men and women have made in the name of freedom. As a veteran myself I always appreciate the messages and thanks on Veteran’s Day; however, Memorial Day has a special reverence. These are the brave soldiers who never returned home to hug their family. These fine citizens we honor and remember today are the elite, the best of the best. They paid the ultimate price to ensure you and I had the freedoms we so enjoy. I have long enjoyed this poem and feel it sums up what a veteran is and what they do for each of us: “It is the veteran, Not the preacher, Who has given us freedom of religion. It is the veteran, Not the reporter, Who has given us freedom of the press. It is the veteran, Not the poet, Who has given us freedom of speech. It is the veteran, Not the campus organizer, Who has given us freedom to assemble. It is the veteran, Not the lawyer, Who has given us the right to a fair trial. It is the veteran, Not the politician, Who has given us the right to vote. It is the veteran, Who Salutes the Flag, It is the veteran, Who serves Under the Flag.” I do hope you will take a moment to remember and honor those who have so selflessly given their lives for us, not only this Memorial Day weekend, but every day. As always, I appreciate it when groups from around Missouri and from our community back home come to visit me at the Capitol. If you would like to arrange a time to come and visit me in Jefferson City, or if you ever have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact my Capitol office at (573) 751-1882.

Defending the Rule of Law

Missouri Secretary of State Jason Kander today encouraged Missourians to review the General Assembly’s work in the 2015 legislative session by visiting www.TheMissouriChannel. com. Debate from every day of the 2015 legislative session is available for both the Missouri House

of Representatives and the Missouri Senate. “The Missouri Channel gives Missourians an opportunity to review what transpired in our legislature over the course of the 2015 legislative session,” Kander said. “This resource has been a meaningful step toward more open and accountable

government in our state, but I encourage the General Assembly to go further by streaming video of all floor debate and committee hearings next session, as many other states have done.” The Missouri Channel increases the transparency and accessibility of state government by making

recordings of legislative debate available online, and was launched by Kander shortly after taking office. Debate from the 2015, 2014 and 2013 legislative sessions is available online at www. TheMissouriChannel.com, which is updated regularly each spring when the General Assembly meets.

WP Bank offers 7 tips for improving your credit score In recognition of American Housing Month, West Plains Bank and Trust Company is reminding consumers of the critical impact credit scores can have on housing. “An important step to finding a home, whether you’re renting or buying, is ensuring that you have a good credit history,” said David M.

of West Plains Bank and Trust Company. “A strong credit score will grant you access to better loans and as a result, better homes.

This week we scored a major victory for the rule of law when a federal judge upheld a lower court’s order to stop implementation of President Obama’s executive amnesty. This is the latest development in a court case filed by 26 states to halt President Obama’s actions which would prevent illegal immigrants from being deported. The Obama administration has shown a clear disregard for the rule of law, the separation of powers laid out in the Constitution, and the rights guaranteed to American citizens. The president said 22 times that executive action on immigration was outside the scope of his authority, and even said, “We’ve got a government designed by the Founders so that there’d be checks and balances.” Article I of the Constitution clearly states that Congress has legislative powers, not the president, and I am not standing idly by while this president attempts to shred the Constitution. In addition to fighting the immigration action in the House of Representatives with legislation, including the Executive Amnesty Prevention Act, I also signed on to a brief to challenge the president’s action on immigration in court. The courts handed the American taxpayers a win when they kept President Obama from implementing his overreaching action on immigration, but this is just one of many instances where the administration has gone too far. From selectively deciding which portions of Obamacare to enforce, to attempting to regulate personal property with the Waters of the United States rule, to considering limiting access to hunting ammunition, our constitutional battles are far from over. There is still a lot of work to do during President Obama’s final 20 The June meeting of the months in office to hold this president and his administration Howell County Democrats accountable to the American people.

loan officer.” West Plains Bank and Trust Company suggests the following tips to improve your creditworthiness: 1. Request a copy of your credit score report – and make sure it is correct. Your credit report illustrates your credit performance, and it needs to be accurate so that you can apply for other loans – such as a mortgage. Everyone is entitled to receive a free copy of his or her credit report annually from each of the three credit reporting agencies, but you must go through the Federal Trade Commission’s website at www.annualcreditreport. com, or call 1-877-322-8228. Note that you may have to pay for the numerical credit score itself. 2. Set up automatic bill pay. Payment history makes up 32 percent of your VantageScore credit score and 35 percent of your FICO credit score. The longer you pay your bills on time, the better your score. Avoid missed payments by setting as many of your bills to automatic pay as possible. 3. Build credit through renting. VantageScore’s scoring model, created by the three major credit bureaus, will now weigh rent and utility payment records. This will allow it to score as many as 35 million people who previously couldn’t get a credit score. (Rental payments can be reported to credit bureaus at the discretion of the landlord.) 4. Keep balances low on credit cards and ‘revolving credit.’ Racking up big balances can hurt your scores, regardless of whether you pay your bills in full each month. You often can increase your scores by limiting your charges to 30

percent or less of a card's limit. 5. Apply for and open new credit accounts only as needed. Keep this in mind the next time a retailer offers you 10 percent off if you open an account. However, if you need a new line of credit, don’t jump at the first appealing offer; compare rates and fees offered through mail solicitation, on the Internet or at your local bank. 6. Don’t close old, paid off accounts. According to FICO, closing accounts can never help your score and can in fact damage it. 7. Talk to credit counselors if you’re in trouble. Using legitimate, non-profit credit counseling can help you manage your debt and won’t hurt your credit score. For more information on debt management, contact the National Foundation for Consumer Credit (www. nfcc.org). In addition to local decision-making, Gohn said West Plains Bank and Trust Company customers also have the option to choose local servicing for their home loans. “Questions or business related to your loan will be handled by your local banker, not someone on the other end of an 800 number,” he said. West Plains Bank and Trust Company opened its doors to customers in 1883, making it the oldest continually operating business in the area. With more than 132 years of service to the local region, total assets of West Plains Bank and Trust Company have grown to more than $340 million with six locations.

Schwien awarded scholarship

College Express will put area residents on 'fast track' for fall enrollment Missouri State UniversityWest Plains will host a College Express fall semester enrollment program beginning at 6 p.m. Tuesday, June 23, at the Lybyer Technology Center. The event will give area residents who are considering taking classes this fall the opportunity to “get on the fast track for fall enrollment,” university officials said. “The goal of College Express is to streamline the admission and registration information processes into

a single event,” said Dr. Angela Totty, dean of student services. “This allows all those interested in attending Missouri State-West Plains to optimize the time spent on these preliminary processes. Those attending will have the opportunity to visit the campus, learn more about the benefits of higher education, talk to faculty members and advisers, preview academic programs, apply for admission, begin the financial aid application process, discuss student housing options, learn more

about academic services and student life, and reserve a time to schedule classes either through a one-onone visit with an adviser from the Advisement and Academic Coaching Center for Empowering Student Success (AACCESS) or an upcoming STudent Advising and Registration (STAR) Orientation session. Information about the university’s Evening College also will be available, officials said. The Evening College gives students the opportunity to complete

one of four different degree programs during evening hours by following a routinized schedule of classes required for each degree. Degrees include the Associate of Arts in General Studies, the Associate of Science in Business, the Associate of Science in Nursing (LPN-to-RN bridge program) and the Associate of Applied Science in Child and Family Development. “The appeal for College Express is to assist those who may have other obligations which restrict their time availability,” Totty said. “We want to make

the time spent at College Express valuable through a condensed program.” Complimentary pizza and soft drinks will be provided, and prizes will be given away throughout the evening. Missouri State-West Plains is a teaching and learning institution providing quality postsecondary educational opportunities to the communities it serves. Missouri State-West Plains offers associate degrees and credit and non-credit courses and serves as a delivery site for bachelor’s and master’s degrees offered by Missouri State University in Springfield, Mo. Pre-registration for the College Express program is encouraged. To do so, call the Missouri StateWest Plains admissions office at 417-255-7955 or toll free at 1-888-4667897. For more information about the campus, visit wp.missouristate.edu.

OMC donates Laparoscopic equipment to South Central Career Center How to Compare and Locate Senior Housing Options Dear Savvy Senior, Can you go over the different types of housing options available to seniors, and recommend some good resources for locating and choosing one? I need to find a place for my elderly mother, and could use some help. Searching Daughter Dear Searching, There’s a wide array of housing options available to seniors, but what’s appropriate for your mom will depend on her needs and financial situation. Here’s a rundown of the different levels of senior housing and some resources to help you search. Independent living: If your mom is in relatively good health and is self-sufficient, “independent living communities” are a good place to start. Typically available to people over age 55, this type of senior housing is usually apartments or town homes that are fully functional. In addition, many of these communities also offer amenities such as meals served in a common dining area, housekeeping, transportation and a variety of social activities. To locate this type of housing, contact your Area Agency on Aging (call 800-677-1116 to get your local number), or use online services like newlifestyles.com and caring.com. Most of these communities are privatepay only, and run anywhere from $1,000 to over $4,000 per month. If that’s too expensive, another option is “senior apartments,” which are often subsidized by HUD for lower income seniors. You can locate these through your local housing authority or online at hud.gov – click on “Find Rental Assistance.” Assisted living: If your mom needs some help with daily living activities, an “assisted living facility” is another option. These facilities provide personal care (like bathing, dressing, eating, going to the bathroom) as needed, as well as meals, housekeeping, transportation, social activities and medication management. Many facilities also offer special care units for residents with dementia. Costs typically run between $2,000 to $5,000 or more per month. Most resident’s pay for assisted living from personal funds, and some have long-term care insurance policies. But, some states now have voucher plans that let you use Medicaid money. Another similar, but less expensive option to look into is “board and care homes.” These offer many of the same services as assisted living facilities but in a much smaller home setting. Your Area Aging Agency is again a good resource for finding these facilities, as are the previously listed senior housing locater websites. And for help choosing a facility, the Assisted Living Federation of America offers an excellent guide at alfa.org/checklist. Nursing homes: If your mom needs ongoing medical and personal care, a “nursing home,” which provides 24hour skilled nursing care, is the next option. To find a good one, use Medicare’s nursing home compare tool at medicare.gov/nursinghomecompare. But be aware that nursing home care is very expensive, costing anywhere between $4,500 and $11,000 per month depending on location. Most residents pay from either personal funds, a long-term care insurance policy, or through Medicaid after their savings are depleted. Continuing-care retirement communities (CCRC’s): If your mom has the financial resources, a “CCRC” is another excellent option that provides all levels of housing (independent living, assisted living and skilled nursing home care) in one convenient location. But, these communities typically require a hefty entrance fee that can range from $20,000 to $500,000 or more, plus ongoing monthly service fees that vary from around $1,000 to over $5,000. For more information see carf.org/aging. Need Help? Consider hiring an aging life care expert (aginglifecare. org) who can evaluate your mom’s situation, and find appropriate housing for a fee – usually between $300 and $800. Or, you can use a senior-care advising service like A Place for Mom (aplaceformom.com, 866-344-8005) for free. (They get paid from the senior living facilities in their network.) Some other helpful resources include the National Clearinghouse for Long-Term Care Information (longtermcare.gov), and your State Health Insurance Assistance Program (shiptalk.org), which provides free counseling. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O. Box 5443, Norman, OK 73070, or visit SavvySenior.org. Jim Miller is a contributor to the NBC Today show and author of “The Savvy Senior” book.

Broadway. June’s mobile food pantry is being sponsored by Stewart-Morrison Redi-Mix, the Unitarian Universalist Church of West Plains, and the Lelia Heuer Foundation. Those eligible to apply for this assistance include area families with children ages birth through 18 who live within Howell County. This includes the communities of West Plains, Willow Springs and Mountain View. Previously, the criteria only included families who lived within the boundaries of the West Plains R-7 School District or surrounding rural school districts. Students enrolled at Missouri State UniversityWest Plains and the South Central Career Center also are eligible, organizers said, provided they meet income guidelines. Missouri State students must present their student identification cards in person, as well as a current class schedule; they may not send them with a family member. Families will receive only one voucher per family. Those who apply should bring the following documentation to the prequalification: A photo ID, proof of income, proof of Howell County residency, names and ages of children, and a telephone number.

Proof of Howell County residency does not apply to Missouri State-West Plains or South Central Career Center students, organizers said. Volunteers will verify documentation of those seeking assistance at the prequalification and give vouchers for the date of the truck delivery. Only people receiving vouchers will receive food from the truck during the June delivery, organizers stressed, adding vouchers must be received every month for truck delivery. The Ozarks Food Harvest Mobile Food Pantry provides food and grocery products for up to 250 qualifying families each month. The first delivery arrived April 13, 2010. The next prequalification date is July 1, 2015. Organizers said it is hoped community agencies and groups will sponsor successive months for $1,000 per month. In addition to this month’s sponsor, the following community organizations, businesses and individuals have sponsored previous months or are planning to sponsor future months: Salvation Army, Colton Johnson, Victory Family Worship Center, Grace Community Church, Burton Creek Medical Clinic, Christos House, Sunrise Rotary, Noon Rotary, First Church of God, Kiwanis Club, First Christian Church, the Girl Scouts, West Plains Ba Hai group, Dale and Jan Rickert, West

The Lelia Heuer Foundation of Springfield sponsored the first six months of the food distribution and

later granted requests to sponsor an additional 24 months. More sponsors are needed to ensure the project continues without interruption. The mobile pantry is designed not to duplicate, but instead supplement services already being provided by area food banks, organizers said, adding volunteers are needed for prequalification dates, as well as distribution dates.

MDC: Taney County angler catches record striped bass Lawrence Dillman breaks state-record by catching 65 pound, 2 ounce striped bass at Bull Shoals Lake Lawrence Dillman of Rockaway Beach became the most recent record-breaking angler in

Missouri when he hooked a giant striped bass on Bull Shoals Lake using a rod and reel. The new “pole

and line” record striped bass caught by Dillman on May 21 weighed 65 pounds, 2 ounces with a

length of 49 ¾ inches and a girth of 36 inches. Dillman used 20-pound test line and a chub minnow to catch the

Quality hay should be entered in Ozark Empire Fair Hay Show; deadline for entering hay show is July 10 Individuals that are proud of the hay they put up in late April and early May should consider entering the 2015 Ozark Empire Fair Hay Show. "The show is an excellent opportunity to show that hay produced in this part of the state is as good as it is anywhere," said Eldon Cole, livestock specialist, University of Missouri Extension. The hay show was started 30 years ago as an educational effort to familiarize farmers with the objective form of determining hay quality: a laboratory test. "Many folks still feel that the best test of hay is to smell, look and feel," said Cole.

With that in mind, the hay show incorporated both methods in the final evaluation. Sixty percent of the final score is based on the lab test for relative feed value. Forty percent is subjective critique by the judge for aroma, color, purity and condition of the hay. The deadline for entering the hay in the show is July 10. The hay must be grown in Missouri and harvested in 2015. Classes are set up to legumes, cool-season grass, warm-season grass, grasslegume mix, and summer/ winter annual grass. Either small rectangular or large hay packages will be accepted. High moisture, wrapped bales are not

accepted at the Ozark Empire Fair but may be entered in the Missouri State Fair. Sampling the hay must be done by an extension specialist with the University of Missouri. The entry fee is $21, which covers the cost of the lab analysis. One bale from the lot tested will need to be taken to the Ozark Empire Fair for the final judging on July 30. The Ozark Empire Fair and Missouri State Fair hay shows only provide educational information on proper evaluation measures, and they can be helpful marketing opportunities to sell the hay. In addition to the above shows in 2014, two

Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) staff verified the record-weight fish using a certified scale at the MDC Shepherd of the Hills Hatchery in Taney County. “Once the fish was on the line, I knew I had a decent one, but I didn’t at all think it was a striped bass,” Dillman said. “I thought it was a spoonbill or something else. But when I got him to the bank I knew I had something

amazing!” The longtime angler said the fish is now at Bass Pro in Springfield getting mounted. Dillman said he fishes every day and he doesn’t plan on stopping any time soon. “I’ve caught bigger fish in the ocean, but this fish is the biggest fresh-water fish I have ever caught.” Missouri state-record fish are recognized in two categories: pole-and-line and alternative methods. Alternative methods include: throwlines, trotlines, limb lines, bank lines, jug lines, spearfishing, snagging, snaring, gigging, grabbing, archery, and atlatl. Conservation makes Missouri a great place to fish. For more information on state-record fish, visit the MDC website at mdc. mo.gov/fishing/staterecord-fish.
