Dozens attend vigil for Texas shooting victims

Dozens of mourners have attended a vigil for the four slain and four wounded in two Dallas-area shootings that are being blamed on one man.

Dallas County Jail records show Erbie Bowser was being held Sunday on $6.5 million bond on three counts of capital murder and two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

Police allege Bowser on Wednesday fatally shot his girlfriend and her daughter in Dallas, then drove to DeSoto and killed his estranged wife, Zina Bowser, and her daughter. Two youths at each home were also wounded.

Family and friends gathered Saturday outside the DeSoto home where Zina Bowser and her daughter were killed to light candles and remember the victims.

Health Insurance And You: Finding The Information You Need ...

It is very risky to live without health insurance. If you break your leg or have a serious illness, you could end up with massive medical bills. Having a proper health insurance policy is key to keeping yourself healthy, so read on to find tips which will help you secure the coverage you need for a great price.

When choosing health insurance, it is important to know what your coverage will encompass. It is vital to have extra coverage if it turns out that you are not able to return to work for a considerable amount of time.

Open Enrollment

If an open enrollment period is available to you, take advantage of it by reassessing your requirements in a health insurance policy. Perhaps your situation has changed and your policy is no longer adequate. Open enrollment offers you the ability to change vision and dental coverage, too, if you have that option.

If you, or any of your family members, have vision issues, then it is a good idea to get optical insurance. Some of your visits and eye care purchases, such as glasses or contacts, will be covered. Vision insurance isn?t mandatory, so some people spend less cash by not having this kind of coverage.

Hints If you are a recent college graduate and you are looking into health insurance, there are a couple of options for you to consider. If you are employed by a large enough business, you are probably eligible for company provided coverage.

Expect health insurance policies to have hidden loopholes within the fine print. Make sure you read the policy thoroughly, so there are no surprises about what it doesn?t cover. Be prepared to pay for some things that will not be covered, such as some medications or procedures.

When your health insurer telephones you during the insurance application process, do not volunteer any extra information. Answer only the questions they ask you directly, and keep your answers focused and short to offer nothing more than the specific answer. By volunteering extraneous details, it is likely that they will note them in your file and possibly increase your policy costs or deny coverage altogether depending on the information you provided.

Health Insurance Policy

Hints When open enrollment time comes, review your health insurance plans and needs. As your medical needs and family dynamics change, your health insurance should be adjusted to meet those needs.

Unforeseen circumstances make having a health insurance policy essential. You could contract a disease or get hit by a car anytime. These tips will help you to decide on the correct health insurance policy for you and your family, at the right price.

Lightning strikes spark more Washington wildfires

MALAGA, Wash. -- A Chelan County community just now recovering from a fast-moving wildfire is being threatened once again.

A weekend lightning storm sparked more than 60 new fires in Washington, and the largest of them is now forcing evacuations in a community near Malaga.

Firefighter Roy Varney's crew is standing guard in case the Mile Post 10 fire makes a run at any area homes. They're safe for now, but that could change in a moment's notice.

"Prevention is the name of the game," Varney said.

Don Kasel and his wife were able to safely get out of the area Saturday night. They grabbed their family photos and their two dogs when it looked like the entire ridge was burning.

"We've got a mess out here," Kasel said. "We're evacuated right now. A level three, the highest evacuation that they have."

The fire is threatening roughly 80 homes, and Kasel is grateful for the men and women who have stepped up to fight it.

"It's just amazing the people that are parked in our driveway," he said. "There's three fire trucks."

Nearly an hour's drive away in the town of Cashmere, a helicopter spent Sunday dropping water on what appears to be another spot fire caused by lightning.

Varney said the half-inch of rain that fell with the thunder storms isn't enough to help prevent the fire from spreading further.

"It's enough rain to soak the grass," he said. "When sun comes out, the grass dries like that. Two hours later you're right back to where you were before the rain."

The Mile Post 10 fire has burned 5,226 acres so far.

Austin Snyder: Florida teen killed after ATV hits tree in Colorado

A 14-year-old Volusia County boy who was killed in an all-terrain vehicle crash in Colorado will be remembered during a service next week in DeLand.

Austin Michael Snyder, 14, of DeLeon Springs, died in Ouray County, Colo. while on vacation after his all-terrain vehicle struck a tree Aug. 2.

He attended St. Barnabas Episcopal School in DeLand, his obituary said.

A celebration of Austin's life will be held at 5:30 p.m. Monday at St. Barnabas Episcopal Church in the Harwood Center.

"The family encourages attendees to wear purple,'' his obituary says.

A funeral service was held on Wednesday at Canyon View Baptist Church, Montrose, Colo. interment followed at Dallas Park Cemetery in Ridgway, Colo.

He was visiting family members in Montrose, Colo. at the time of the crash.

The Montrose Daily Press said he was riding in a group of five when the crash occurred.

A cousin saw Austin hit a bump in the road, authorities said.

"Unfortunately, just beyond the bump where he came down, he had to negotiate a right-hand curve. He was unable to negotiate the curve," Ouray County Undersheriff BB Burk is quoted as saying.

After his ATV hit a tree, he was thrown from the vehicle and into another tree, Burk told the Montrose Daily Press.

The newspaper said his grandfather and legal guardian? Greg Snyder ? was in the group Austin was riding in.

Greg and Carolyn Snyder adopted Austin in 2008 after the death of Austin's father, Justin Snyder, in 2005.

Justin Snyder died March 14, 2005 after he stepped out of a moving truck in Montana for unknown reasons and was hit or run over by the truck, according to an Associated Press report.

The younger Snyder sustained severe internal injuries, lost consciousness and was pronounced dead by the time a rescue helicopter arrived, the Montrose Daily Press said.

The boy's obituary said he "lived life to the fullest."

"He particularly loved the outdoors, sports, and, above all, spending time with family and friends," it said.
