Yes, its that time of year again that we get see the children going door to door in our neighborhood showing off those great costumes.

Aflac Increases Benefits to policyholders with no increase in premium
Aflac recently made some significant enhancements to some of their policies. They extended coverage of children on the family plans to age 26 with no increase in premium. Health care reform was intended to ensure all Americans are protected by major medical insurance. Because Aflac is not major medical insurance, most aspects of the reform do not apply to our policies, including covering dependent children up to age 26 under a parent’s major medical policy.
As an added benefit, Aflac is voluntarily expanding coverage for dependent children on new and existing family policies to age 26 regardless of marital, IRS or student status requirements for dependents outlined in the policy. The change is effective October 1, 2010, and applies to losses that occur on or after October 1, 2010.
No action is required for policyholders whose children are covered under the current terms of their policies: Coverage automatically extends to age 26, with no increase in premium.
No action is required for policyholders with family coverage who have children under age 26 who were covered, but had lost coverage due to previous dependent rules: Coverage will be automatically extended to age 26, with no increase in premium.
For family coverage policies that require underwriting, policyholders with children who were never covered must apply for the children to be added to the policy and these children must pass underwriting to be added to the policies. If eligible, coverage will be extended to age 26, with no increase in premium.
Aflac continues to set the pace in offering their policyholders comprehensive benefit coverage while holding down the cost to policyholders.

Labor Day Travel: How to Avoid Traffic Jams
Well Labor Day is almost here. If you are one of the millions of drivers planning to travel this weekend, please take your time, be careful and come home safe. Click on the title to view an article from the Wall Street Journal.
Looks like we are having an active Hurricane Season this year. Those traveling to the coast of North Carolina and up to New England, keep a watch out the Hurricane Earl.
Personally, I'm looking forward to the cooler weather. It's been a hot summer.

Tampa Bay and Yankee fans loose a legend, "The Boss" George Steinbrenner
I was personally saddened to hear the news that George Steinbrenner had died at age 80. Most people associate Steinbrenner as a fierce competitor when it came to winning baseball games. His winning style helped to catapult the New York Yankees to several World Series victories. Steinbrenner's penchant for making headlines was priceless for New York's competing tabloids, which gleefully turned over their back pages to chronicle the latest fired manager or free agent signing.
What most people don’t know was the generosity this man showed to many groups in the Tampa Bay Area. As quoted in the St. Petersburg Times July 14th; He left a remarkable public legacy. Look around, and his fingerprints are all over the Tampa Bay area: the Florida State Fair, the Port of Tampa, and Steinbrenner Field, where the Yankees train in spring. The Tampa Bay Rays, Tampa Bay Downs, middle school sports programs, Boys and Girls Clubs. Lights at Little League fields, a pediatric emergency center at St. Joseph's Hospital, children's concerts by the Florida Orchestra.
Steinbrenner opened his checkbook for charities that help kids from the poorest neighborhoods and for scholarships for children of police officers killed in the line of duty.

Rotary Club of Safety Harbor Relay for Life
I want to thank the Rotary Club of Safety Harbor, my Team Members and all the very generous people and businesses that contributed to our cause to fight Cancer. Many thanks to my team members and friends that assisted me at Relay throughout the 18 hour Relay marathon. Even my Grandson Christopher Kemp worked with his Grandmother Betty Taylor, and made a vehicle and named it "Rescue a Cure for Cancer". He participated in the Relay for Life Road to Recovery Parade. He made his Grandpa real proud.
The Rotary Club of Safety Harbor 2010 Relay for Life Team played a major role in the overall performance of the 2010 Inaugural Safety Harbor Relay for Life. Announced at the Relay by the American Cancer Society, total contributions from all teams exceeded $52,000.00 over a plan of $35,000.00. Fantastic job everyone!!! These dollars will help in the fight against Cancer

Happy News
I received an email about this website on Happy News. It doesn’t matter if you get your news from television, radio, internet, or if you’re one of the few that still read the newspaper – one thing they all have in common is that the news is overwhelmingly negative. Oil slicks, terrorist attacks, crimes – it’s all just so depressing. But we have a choice!
