Why, you are wondering about now, would a self professed black bass “nut” and lure company owner spend time catfishing? FUN is the primary reason but GOOD EATS is another! John Barnes is the owner of Strike King Lure Company. Strike King has for the past forty years or so, been a leader in designing and producing lures for bass fishermen. If you turn to page 6 of their current catalog, you’ll see the entire page devoted to their line of catfish catching products that range from dip worms to dip baits to their “Huckleberry” that is actually a container for the Dynamite Paste with a hook built in. John Barnes has become a catfisherman. I know, I was there on that little lake yesterday when he “guided” me to some of the hottest catfish action I have experienced in a long time. “Look at that rascal bend the rod” he said as his fishing rod bowed heavily toward the lake’s surface and I scrambled for the net. The blue weighed about 10 pounds but he had caught a 35 pounder from the same spot a week earlier. John had rigged us up with his BBQ flavor Catfish Dynamite under floaters and we were fishing just out from the windward side of the lake. Catfish were holding in the cover of some lay down trees and brush and making quick forays out to hit our baits dangling under the floaters. “Bass fishing requires a great deal of finesse but this is the kind of non stop action that gets folks hooked on fishing. I love to take kids out for catfish, especially when they are biting like they are today. It makes fishermen out of them quickly.” he added. For about the past decade, Strike King has been producing catfish baits and Barnes has watched the sport of catfishing grow in a big way since he developed his first baits. “With all the interest generated by tournaments and John Barnes show off a feisty catfish that went for his Catfish Dynamite (BBQ flavor). Photo by Luke Clayton John Barnes, owner of Strike King Lure Co., rigs with some of his Catfish Dynamite. Photo by Luke Clayton more national coverage of the sport, catfishing has gained interest nationwide. I am very excited that we now have a national publication devoted to the sport: Catfish Gold Magazine. The thing that I enjoy most about catfish is the fact that they are usually pretty easy to catch, once you learn their seasonal patterns and know where to fish for them. Strike King has on its pro staff some “heavy hitter” bass pros such as Kevin VanDam, Denny Bruaer, Mark Davis Shaw Grigsby, and a host of others. Barnes says that many folks might be surprised to learn that the majority of bass pros he has become close friends with through the years also enjoy fishing for catfish. When you stop and think about it, what fisherman WOULDN’T enjoy fishing for catfish. Catfish are usually willing to take a bait, they pull hard and when dusted with cornmeal and dropped into a skillet of hot cooking oil, they’re tough to beat as table fare. The lake we were fishing also has a healthy population of black bass. Barnes personal One deal that’s right on the money. Get a Cool Cash rebate of up to $1,100 on a new Carrier Infinity System.

What would a day on the water with a basser be complete without dragging a jig through some heavy cover or working a spinnerbait over the top of a submerged grassbed. After we landed a big cooler full of blue and channel catfish for a big upcoming fish fry, Barnes handed me a bait casting rod rigged with a Strike King Spinnerbait and he began pitching a jig to heavy cover. In about 30 minutes of fishing, Barnes landed a couple of bass and I lost one that, as we say, “moved a lot of water”, obviously a nice size fish. During the last 30 minutes of our catfishing, we had put about 10 catfish in the cooler! Beginning to see why I and a whole bunch of bass fishermen also love to fish for catfish? The first ever prepared bait catfish tournament is scheduled for August 11 at Lake Texoma by Bass Pro Shop’s Big Cat Quest. Contestants can use only prepared baits and tournament owner Ken Freeman says first place will pay $10,000 and a total of $24,000 will paid out. Weigh in will be at the Choctaw Coliseum in Durant.

By:John Shelly Ask anyone why they hunt, and 9 out of 10 will tell you it’s because they enjoy it. In fact, maybe 10 out of 10 since hardly anyone actually hunts anymore for the sole purpose of providing a food source. Even the lucky few that make their living hunting will tell you they do what they do because they enjoy it. Think for a moment about why you enjoy hunting. Is it the challenge of matching wits and skills with a big whitetail buck? Is it the sounds of the woods coming alive at daybreak? Is the fragrance of the blossoms from a wild plumb thicket that fills the air on a morning spring turkey hunt? What does it for you? What’s it all about? What makes a hunt enjoyable for you might not appeal at all to the next guy but that’s not the point. Well, actually, that is the point! The point is, that you should do what makes you happy and not feel like you have to do what others around you are doing to have an enjoyable hunt. For me, it doesn’t have to be about harvesting an animal every time I go to the woods. If that were the case, I’d be disappointed more times than not. But I enjoy just going hunting. Taking a nice animal is just a bonus, but it sure isn’t necessary for me to have considered the hunt a success. . I enjoy sitting in a tree stand and just watching the game come and go from a feeder or pass on a nearby trail. When my hunting pro- gressed to the point that I realized I didn’t have to kill an animal every time I went to the woods, I began to learn a lot more about the game I was hunting. You’d be surprised how much you can learn about an animal’s characteristics and habits by just watching them around a feeder. You learn what the subtle little body movements mean and what they signal to you that is about to happen. You hear sounds that you never recognized before. You begin to recognize individual animals. And in time, you can even see the animals mature over several hunting seasons. I enjoy taking pictures and video from the stand and sharing with my friends and hunting partners. Regardless of what else I might or might not need, my bow and my camera go to the stand with me every time. If you ever thought hunting a trophy whitetail was not enough of a challenge, try throwing video into the mix! But I do it because I enjoy it – not because I think it’s something I have to do. I enjoy bringing others into the sport and teaching them the “ropes”. As a hunting outfitter, I have the opportunity to meet many hunters that are relatively new to this game and it’s refreshing to me to see them so eager to learn and see them become consumed with the pleasure of this sport. . And hunting with my kids! Wow! Some of the best times I’ve ever spent hunting have been with my children. For me, this is a BBQ With Team Spirit pleasure that can’t be matched. Being there with them when they harvested their first deer was something that I’ll remember even when they’ve long forgotten it. The smile on their faces and the excitement in their voices is a trophy that no mount on the wall can c o m p a r e w i t h . Don’t get the idea that I don’t still get excited when I harvest a mature buck, a fine doe, or a long beard gobbler. All these things still excite me as much as the day I did it for the first time, but I’ve learned that I don’t have to harvest an animal to enjoy a successful hunt. A successful hunt for me is one that I got to go on. When I get to watch the animals in the woods, the hunt was a success. When I hear a turkey gobble from the roost, the hunt was a success. When I get to see the sun rising through the trees and it warms my face, the hunt was a success. . Hunting should be fun. It should be something that you enjoy. It should be something that you can’t wait to do again. When it becomes such an obsession that you can’t have a good time unless you harvest an animal, then it quits being fun and starts being a job! And I already have all the jobs I want. It doesn’t always have to be about harvesting an animal or getting good footage on video. Sometimes it’s okay just to go to the woods for the sake of being in the woods. Sometimes it’s okay just to lean against a tree and take a nap in the warm mid-day sun. It’s okay to take your kids and watch them soak up all the things that make this sport the thing we all enjoy so much. It’s okay to just have fun. For me, that’s what it’s all about! (NAPSI)-Many sports fans have taken to tailgating in their own backyard--firing up the barbecue grill for their at-home tailgate party. That doesn't mean, however, that team spirit has to suffer. Decorating items include everything from collegiate pennant flags, banners and canopies with team logos, to food and drink products that declare team loyalty. Here are tips to help you have a safe, easy and fun at-home tailgate party: • Start barbecuing low 'n' slow cooking foods like brisket or ribs early in the day so they'll be ready to eat when you are. But grill colorful assorted veggies, corn on the cob or burgers after guests arrive so they can enjoy the tantalizing aroma. • For a simple but sensational dessert, place a sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil on the grill, split bananas lengthwise and place on foil. Sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon, dot with butter and cook over medium-low heat. Serve over ice cream. • For self-serve drinks, fill a plastic kiddie pool with drinks and ice. • Extend the team spirit by displaying hand towels and soaps in team colors in your bathrooms. • Rent a TV projector to broadcast the game outdoors. Use a wall of the house as a screen-or hang a large white sheet to project against. Or if you really love backyard entertaining, invest in an outdoor TV set that is made to withstand the weather and can easily be cleaned with a garden hose. • Before the fire gets going, put down a Collegiate Grill Pad-a fun and practical way to show support for a favorite team and attract guests' attention. The pad acts as a barrier to protect decks, patios and porches from the inevitable spills, drippings, grease splatters and errant sparks that could leave unsightly stains or even damage or destroy these expensive surfaces. There are more than 80 officially licensed, full-color team logos from colleges and universities across the country, and more are being added all the time. The pads make an affordable and unique gift for students, parents and alumni. You can find them in most stores that sell grills and barbecue accessories and in college bookstores. You can find available logos and locate a dealer at www.grillpad.com. Many sports fans are firing up the barbecue grill for an athome tailgate party.

Seagoville Lions (1941) Club Says Thanks To All For A Successful Yard Sale Last Saturday The crowd started showing up Friday afternoon and was already on hand by 7:00 Saturday Morning with opening time scheduled for 8:00 A.M. Saturday. First item sold was a pair of Field Glasses, second was a bunch of Christmas decorations—-steady until about 1:30 P.M. Last item was a Smoke/Grill Cooker. Because so many donated items and came to the sale, the Seagoville Lions (1941) Club Yard Sale held last Saturday was a tremendous success that brought in twice the funds that had been projected. The sale was planned to be outside under the trees but due to weather forecast of showers, it was decided to set up inside the center and all day Friday was spent displaying and pricing items, pickup loads were still coming in at 7:00 A.M. Saturday. The club members want to thank each and everyone that had a part, donations, coming, buying, and helping and made it out to be a very successful event. A big thank you to Sarah Rogers, Mildred Thompson, Ruth Sorrells, and Lois Wooley, wives of members for keeping the items straight and taking care of the cashier job. Another big thank you to those, and what a surprise it was, to see so many bringing their old eye glasses. They will never know how much they were appreciated and how much help they will be to someone in need. It was also surprising as to how many different kinds of items were brought, such as end rolls of newspaper print, large plastic cow feed buckets, table and chair sets, computer desk and tables, large 8 foot hand carved western bench, two horses heads carved for the back rest, wheel chair, walkers, trowling motor, paintings, office supplies, hand and power tools, brand new pick up tires, cedar chest, bird houses, copier cabinet, dishes, Christmas decorations, odds and ends of all kinds, TVs, radios, all kinds of electric gadgets and so on and on. It was heard said that if WalMart didn’t have it, the Lions Yard Sale Did!!! Oh yes, gimmy caps by the hundreds. Again, A BIG, BIG Seagoville Thank You to all who helped in any way. It looked like at times that it was maybe a family reunion to see so much hugging going on when some would come and see so many long time friends. Not only was it a successful event, it was a great day for the many who came by and for the club members renewing old acquaintances. People came from all over as far as New Mexico, Rockwall, Royce City, North Dallas, Corsicana, Mesquite, Balch Springs, Forney, Fairfield, Crandall, Combine, and Seagoooooville. THANKS AGAIN!!!!! Page 5, The Suburbia News, August 2, 2007 E n t e r t a i n m e n t "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" Running time: 2 hours, 18 minutes MPAA rating: PG-13 Just so you know where I stand, I think "Prisoner of Azkaban" was the best Harry Potter film in the series, with "Goblet of Fire" coming a very close second. The first two films weren't that great, in my opinion. The latest film, "Order of the Phoenix" falls in the middle. It's not as weak as the first two, but nowhere as great as "Azkaban" and "Goblet." There's a lot to like about "Phoenix." The special effects are great; and all the performances, from the stars to the supporting cast, are spectacular. Daniel Radcliffe has really grown into a fine actor, and his portrayal of the young wizard in this film is his best yet. Also worth noting is the performance of Imelda Staunton as the smiling, torturing Dolores Umbridge. There is a scene where she punishes Potter that is chilling to watch. It reminded me of Laurence Olivier's torture scene in "Marathon Man." It was that intense. The biggest flaw in "Phoenix" can't be laid completely at the feet of the filmmakers. Some measure of blame rests with the novelist J.K. Rowling. The novel was nearly 900 pages long. In order to pack so much into a two-hour film, a lot of the book had to stripped away. The resulting film is a kind of Cliff's Notes version of the book. It also reveals that the plot of every Harry Potter book/movie is the same: A new year at Hogwarts and a new teacher who will turn out to be evil. Harry and Co. learn a new spell that will come in handy in the final act. Harry fights some version of Voldemort, only to be rescued in the end by someone. There may or may not be a quidditch match. Sound familiar? The choppy, episodic nature of the movie is its greatest flaw. "Phoenix" needed to be at least a halfhour longer so that certain events (like Harry's first kiss, and the death and aftermath of a major supporting character) could be given enough time for the characters (and us) to feel their emotional impact. Still, "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" is well worth your time. Despite its flaws, the performances and effects make it worth a trip to the mulitplex.

Yeah, we talk about boxing a lot at "A Sporting View," but that's because it's the sweet science, baby. When you break it down, it's all you're looking for in sports. It's the oneon-one match up. It's Magic Johnson on Larry Bird. It's Reggie Jackson stepping in against Nolan Ryan. It's Bo Jackson and Brian Bosworth. And I'm not too hyped up on the Ultimate Fighting Championship stuff, folks ... sorry. At its best, it's a bar fight. At its worst - and this was typically the case when those jujitsu guys dominated -- it was two guys rolling around on the canvas. It may have been scientific, but it just wasn't sweet. Sure, they're getting their share of attention, but I doubt the sport is siphoning off as many fans from boxing as it is wrestling. Be that as it may, boxing needs a shot in the arm - something I've been carping about for a long time. Greedy promoters have led to an indigestible alphabet soup of councils and federations with watered down contenders and champions. To combat this, HBO Sports has taken the lead in trying to give us a story line again in boxing. Its promotion of the De La HoyaMayweather fight, with the weekly reality docudrama showing their training, definitely elevated the status of the fight in many people's eyes. And while they were down at the welterweights, HBO decided to stay and stake a claim. Rickey Hatton, Shane Mosley, Miguel Cotto -- in many respects, HBO hopes these guys will turn out to be the next gen- eration of Marvin Hagler, Sugar Ray Leonard and Tommy Hearns. Of course, it'd settle for another Arturo Gatti and Mickey Ward. And that's the other unsettling thing about HBO's latest storyline -- they won't let the old stars fade away. Nothing was harder to watch than Gatti, one of the most popular and exciting fighters of all-time, get his head handed to him by Alfonso Gomez -- a 17-3-2 fighter with only five knockouts going into the fight. It was the last fight on Gatti's HBO contract, and it was a sad display of going to the well too many times. And that's why it was even weirder watching Jim Lampley and Larry Merchant exclaiming gleefully that Oscar De La Hoya would be moving back to the welterweight division. Waiting in the wings, on the decided downward slope of his career, is Roy Jones Jr. He wants a piece of Felix "Tito" Trinidad. "If two people -- me and Tito -- want it to happen, then nobody is going to be able to stop it," Jones, 38, told media last month. "This would be a fight that could fill Madison Square Garden or Yankee Stadium." Would it really? Better yet, should it? (c) 2007 King Features Synd., Inc. How Much Fight Is Left in These Guys? Racing resumed again this past Saturday nigh, July 28th, at Thunderbird Speedway. Saturday night provided another good night of racing and some familiar faces back in victory lane. In the Southern Modified class, it was the # 82 of Max Eddie Thomas that was able to hold off the # 17 of Tommy Davis Jr. and the American National Bank, Town East Ford #1s of Ronny Sigman. In the SIMS Modified class, it was Tommy Davis Jr. winning for the 2nd time in the past 3 weeks as he held off the # 010 of Gary Blackwell, along with his younger brother Chris Davis in the # 98. Jay Edmonds won for the 3rd time this season in the Street Stock class, beating out the # 76 car of Steve Brown. In the Bomber class, the # 24 of Glen Pace took home the victory, while Trent Dorman took the checkered flag in the Mini Stock Class.

Seagoville’s *only* Cheer & Tumbling Gym is making Seagoville proud. It is growing and busting at the seams!! TEXAS*EXPLOSION Texas Explosion is located at 714-A Simonds Road. The 2500 sq. ft. facility opened in Robert Henderson (who is suppose to be on a diet) sneaks in a bite of the 20 ft long Banana Split! January 2007, under the ownership of Leah (McCullough) Milligan. Since it’s opening, the gym has added to it’s staff a new *certified* award winning (state) tumbling/gymnastics coach. The gym has “Competitive” and “Show Cheerleading Teams”. The cheerleading and tumbling program is said to be the best in the area, already winning 1st and 3rd place trophies at NCA and Cheer Power competitions. The gym has classes for boys and girls on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. They provide open gym every Saturday and “Parents Night Out” once a month. Texas Explosion had it’s 2nd *Parents Night Out* which featured a 20 foot long banana split. There were approximately 81 people in attendance and fun was had by all. All the children were put on teams and they competed in relay games and contests. The orange team was the first place winners. The kids enjoyed a hot dog dinner, games, prizes, and last but not least the 20 foot banana split. The banana split had your usual toppings, but to everyone’s surprise, the whipping cream was topped with candied bugs. It was long, cold, beautiful, and delicious!

S by Charles E N Matilda Medicare Slashes Home Health Care Former New York City Mayor Ed Koch wrote an opinion piece recently that warns of the coming (or is it already here?) nightmare of home health care. It appears that the Medicare home health-care budget is being slashed so much that those of us who could easily stay in our homes if only we had a bit of I O R care each day are being shoved into nursing homes -- before we need to be there. They've slashed $410 million from the 2008 proposed budget with $9.68 billion to be cut over the coming five years. Meanwhile, the budget for nursing-home care has continually increased. It seems that the home health-care industry just doesn't have the lobbying clout that the big nursing-home industry does, nor the funds to maintain ac- N E tive campaigns to urge Congress to pay attention to the needs of millions of us. It's no wonder the nursing-home industry has more money. The opinion piece from Koch says that the cost of a home health-care visit is $109, while the cost of staying in a nursing home for one day is $499. A friend of mine is caught in this situation. She needed help at home, but there wasn't any. She had to sell her house and move into a Oct. 18, Flu Shots from 9 am to 12 noon Any volunteers would be very welcome, such as teaching crafts, line dancing or even story telling or any other type of entertainment. Volunteers do not have to be seniors. If you are 60 and not a member of the center come in and join us. If you have any questions please call Debra Hitt at S L I nursing home to get the daily living care she requires. But she isn't ill enough that she can't drive. So she has a specially outfitted van that she uses for her "escapes," but comes home at night to a nursing home. The nursinghome industry might have a lot of lobbying money, but we have something bigger -- we have voting clout. N E not personally answer reader questions.

Oct. 16, Trip to Dallas Arboretum, Dallas Blooms W 1000 EAST MALLOY BRIDGE RD. SEAGOVILLE, TX 75159 ¥ On Aug. 11, 1856, a hurricane hits the Louisiana coast, killing more than 400 people when Isle Derniere is totally submerged by storm surges. A tidal wave carried off upward of 150 people, with some bodies ending up 6 miles away. The only survivors were those who were able to make it to a steamship moored at the island. ¥ On Aug. 8, 1907, the Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost passes its 15,000mile official trial with flying colors, showing off its seven-liter engine and four-speed overdrive gearbox. A total of 6,173 Silver Ghosts were produced. ¥ On Aug. 6, 1932, Richard Hollingshead Jr. first registers his patent for the drive-in movie theater. Hollingshead was awarded the patent in May 1933, though it was declared invalid in 1950. After the patent was revoked, thousands of drive-ins appeared on the American landscape, reaching a peak of 4,063 in 1958. ¥ On Aug. 9, 1949, author Jonathan Kellerman is born in New York City. His first novel, "When the Bough Breaks," was published in 1985. Kellerman currently has more than 20 million books in print. ¥ On Aug. 7, 1971, the Bee Gees top the charts for the first time with "How Can You Mend a Broken Heart." The Brothers Gibb went on to score more No. 1 hits than any group in history except the Beatles and the Supremes. ¥ On Aug. 12, 1985, a Japan Air Lines Boeing 747SR crashes into Mount Otsuka, 70 miles northwest of Tokyo. Twelve minutes into the flight, as the jumbo jet was approaching its cruising altitude, an explosion shook the aircraft and blew off part of the tail section. There were 524 people aboard, and all but four were dead by the time rescuers reached the remote crash site 12 hours later. ¥ On Aug. 10, 1993, a rare collision of three ships (two fuel barges and one phosphate freighter) in Tampa Bay, Florida, results in a spill of 336,000 gallons of fuel oil. Three thousand volunteers saved almost all of the native wildlife that was affected by the disaster. (c) 2007 King Features Synd., Inc.

Along with hiking, biking and swimming, eating together can provide unforgettable family moments. Take, for instance, the time one of my sons created his stupendous summer s'mores stack-up contest -- squishing those gooey, toasted marshmallows between milk chocolate and graham crackers and stacking them as high as they can go in 30 seconds. The highest stack wins! I never won, and it was probably because I never got past the chocolate. New tips and ideas come out of good memories. Here are a few to add to your campfire traditions: CAMPFIRE S'MORES HAND PROTECTORS When roasting marshmallows over a campfire, a disposable foil pie plate on each stick can provide some protection against the heat from the coals. Poke a hole in the middle of a large or small disposable foil pie plate and insert it onto the middle of a toasting stick. To identify one another's toasting sticks, children can decorate their pie plate with fun designs and their name or initials. Use non-toxic permanent paint pens. Or, simply poke holes into a large pie plate to create your favorite constellations that may be revealed through the firelight. Tip: After preparing a meal on a backyard grill, roast marshmallows over the coals just as you would do at a campfire. NEW CREATIONS Challenge one another to create your own recipe. To get you started, here are a couple of my favorite twists inspired by recipes from Hershey's. Peanut Butter S'mores -Spread a thin layer of peanut butter on half of a graham cracker, and top with half of a milkchocolate bar, a toasted marshmallow and half of a graham cracker. Vary it by adding banana slices. Apricot Coconut S'mores -Spread a thin layer of apricot jam on half of a cinnamon graham cracker. Add a sprinkle of coconut. Top with milk-chocolate bar, a toasted marshmallow and half of another cinnamon graham cracker. Black Forest S'mores -Spread a thin layer of cherry-pie filling on half of a chocolate graham cracker topped with a Hershey's Special Dark Semi-Sweet Chocolate bar, another layer of pie filling and a toasted marshmallow. *** Donna Erickson's new award-winning television series "Donna's Day" is airing on public television nationwide.

As I crossed the river I saw a herd of cattle ‘balled up’ next to the highway where they go under the road to get to the other side. All they had to do was go through the tunnel that was built just for them. There on horseback were Richard and Matt trying to coax them under the road. Even with the dogs trying to help the cattle were at a dead stand still. All of this reminded me of the way we are as Christians many times. You see, there was grass through the tunnel under the road. It was better for them on the other side than on this side of the road. Somehow all of these cows collaborated and decide not to go. The children of Israel in the Old Testament did the same thing. God took them from Egypt, the place of bondage, and led them to the edge of the promised land. All they had to do was go over. God opened the door but they decided that it was best for them not to go. They became stubborn and rebellious against what was best for them. For the next 40 years they wandered in the wilderness until all but Joshua and Caleb were dead. The original folks that had left Egypt were now in the grave and God raised up their children to go into the promised land. Christian friend is there something that God is dealing with you about in your life and you are refusing to go under the bridge or cross over the road?
