This weekend, cities and towns across America will sound off with countless fireworks and musical salutes. Meanwhile... in Bricktown (OKC), Conductor Joel Levine will lead the Oklahoma City Philharmonic through a public performance intended to add a little 'pops' to this year's “Red, White and Boom” celebration. The Oklahoma Gazette's Joe Wertz tells us more.

We continue our series of interviews as part of the national series, Five Farms: Stories from American Farm Families. Our focus this week is on how farmers nurture their crops to maturity. I took a trip to Sun Berry Orchard in eastern Oklahoma County on a day when the high temperature hovered near 100 degrees. I sat down at a picnic table outside the orchard¹s farm store with owner, Rick Dye, who spends his days and years nurturing the blackberries that are the hallmark of his operation.



The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality's (AHRQ) annual release of State-by-State quality data continues to give States mixed reviews for the quality of care they provide. As in previous years, AHRQ's 2008 State Snapshots show that no State does well or poorly on all quality measures. Find out how Oklahoma did in the 2008 State Snapshotes. Those snapshots provide State-specific health care quality information, including strengths, weaknesses and opportunities for improvement.

This week on Indian Times, its tribal election time for the Seminole Nation of Oklahoma. With the very well-known E. Kelly Haney stepping down as chief, a total of six candidates have thrown their caps in the ring. We hear from three of those candidates going in alphabetical order: Willis Deatherage, Leonard Harjo and Terry Spencer. All three men have a history of working for their tribe, as well as in the business and education fields. The election will take place on July 11th, there are several polling places, one will be in the Glorieta Baptist Church in Oklahoma City, another in the Haikey Chapel in Tulsa, and of course there will be places to cast your vote in and around Seminole. For a complete list call Alvina Wallace at 405-382-2324.
