The woman, Mavis Wanczyk, appeared at an afternoon news conference to claim her prize.
"I wanted to get this over and done with, and then everyone would leave me alone,"
Fat Chance....
Face...
Valerie Mahaffey (born June 16, 1953)[1] is an American character actress and producer. She won an Emmy Award for her work on Northern Exposure. She later won fame through her portrayal of extroverted and friendly but ultimately insane women on the television shows Wings, Desperate Housewives and Devious Maids.
Best facial expression I ever seen as she moves from happy to psycho in no time.
As of late 1980's, Mahaffey began acting in television comedies, like Newhart, Cheers, and Seinfeld. From 1992–93, she starred in the short-lived NBC sitcom The Powers That Be. She played Tracy Milford in the 1995 film National Lampoon's Senior Trip and Jan Kempster in the 1997 film Jungle 2 Jungle. In 1999, she had a recurring role on ER. .....
Milk...*
Dairy labels can be confusing by an endless array of product labels claiming various issues. The FDA stated that dairy products and meat from BST-treated cows are safe for human consumption.
The Council of the European Union (EU) decided to definitively ban possible use of recombinant bovine somatotrophin (rBST) in the European Union.
Some claims can't be supported such as
Hormone-free, the claim is misleading since all dairy products contain hormones.
No hormones added This label may also be misleading because the FDA requires that all commercially available fluid milk sold must be fortified with Vitamin D.
Made without the use of synthetic or artificial hormones All milk has hormones in it.
All Natural — According to the FDA, these terms may be used on fluid milk products as long as they don’t contain any artificial ingredients or added colors and flavors.
Our farmers pledge not to use artificial growth hormones.
Milk from cows not treated with rBST
No Hormones added, No Antibiotics.
So which to choose?... You be the judge. Just a thought.

Free Agent...
Kaepernick refused to stand for the national anthem as a protest against........ and is now without a team. The free agent once played in the Super Bowl but hasn't been signed by any football club.
Some critics say it's about his ability as a player. Others say he should have stood for the anthem.
The NAACP sent a letter to NFL commissioner about the situation, saying it's "no sheer coincidence" Kaepernick is unsigned.
Protest anything you want, but not standing for the National anthem is not a protest.
Realism...
Donald Trump will declare an end to nation building if elected president, replacing it with what aides described as “foreign policy realism” focused on destroying the Islamic State group and other extremist organizations.
In Ohio, Trump will argue that the United States needs to work with anyone who shares that mission, regardless of other ideological and strategic disagreements. Any country that wants to work with the U.S. to defeat “radical Islamic terrorism” will be a U.S. ally, he is expected to say.
August 15, 2016 PBS.
We are not nation-building again. We are killing terrorists.” President Trump announced an aggressive new approach to the 16-year-long war in Afghanistan. The speech included eight uses of the word “attack,” and only one use of “freedom” and “democracy.” Trump promised to bring more direct force, including American soldiers, to the unforgiving mountains and deserts of Central Asia.
Let us not break fragile countries and try to rebuild it. Not going to work.
