00:00Hi.

00:10You got any of these?

00:11Ooh.

00:12Will this let the case fit my cell phone?

00:14It's not from Radio Shack.

00:15Yes, it will.

00:16Perfect.

00:17What about a long-life battery?

00:18A car adapter?

00:19A cordless computer mouse?

00:20An AC adapter for this?

00:21What have you got?

00:22Why are the speakers two will have one?

00:23Whatever you've got, wherever you got it,

00:25Radio Shack's got over 10,000 accessories to help it work better.

00:29Got any connectors?

00:31Parts, too.

00:32Great!

00:33Radio Shack.

00:34You've got questions, we've got answers.

00:36And right now, get a great deal on a universal remote.

00:39When my allergies became a problem,

00:41I thought a prescription was the answer.

00:43Instead, my allergist recommends Dimetap.

00:45Said an allergy study showed its antihistamine

00:47is even more effective than Seldane,

00:49a leading prescription.

00:50Ask your doctor.

00:51Doctors say Dimetap for good reason.

00:54This is my office.

00:56My phone, my calendar, and where I was supposed to be 10 minutes ago.

01:01I need relief.

01:04Ah, my Lincoln Town Car.

01:07Just what the doctor ordered.

01:09Its soothing comfort goes to work immediately.

01:11Delivering a feeling of unsurpassed luxury and peace of mind.

01:17You know, I'm amazed a car like this is available without a prescription.

01:24Come on and do it.

01:26You know there's really nothing to it.

01:28It's a lift that you get.

01:30It's a rhythm in your step.

01:32When you taste the lemon lime, your world comes alive.

01:35Cause it's cool and it's wonderful.

01:37And it's totally fine.

01:39It's every nothing.

01:41It's an up thing.

01:43It's every nothing.

01:44Does it every time.

01:46It's every nothing.

01:48Yeah, it's an up thing.

01:49It's clear and it's wonderful.

01:51And it's lemon and lime.

01:53It's every nothing.

01:54Nocomis.

02:04The fragrance that speaks to a woman's soul.

02:09Can you believe those Potterfields?

02:11What do you mean?

02:12What?

02:13They went to Disney World.

02:14Again?

02:15Yeah, for that 25th anniversary.

02:16When are they gonna realize they're not kids anymore?

02:19I don't know what's gotten into them.

02:21Still whooping it up like a couple of teenagers.

02:23Running around like they don't have a care in the world.

02:25It's ridiculous.

02:26What if we all acted that way?

02:31Come celebrate Disney World's 25th anniversary.

02:34Call 1-407-W-Disney.

02:35Say, Mickey.

02:36And remember the magic.

02:40His world was a place of mystery.

02:43His home was all he had ever known.

02:46Set the sails!

02:47His voyage became the greatest epic adventure of all time.

02:53I want you to defeat the Trojans.

02:56To become immortal.

02:57A warrior who defied the gods.

02:59I come to Troy!

03:00To face the world's greatest wonders.

03:03Put in the sails!

03:05Strongest passion.

03:06Forget.

03:07You are home now.

03:08And deadliest challenges.

03:15From Hallmark Entertainment, Robert Hallmey and Francis Ford Coppola.

03:46Made with titanium dioxide.

03:48So just one coat's all you need to cover.

03:50Three children.

03:51And you know how kids are.

03:53That's why it's guaranteed to take 15 years of scrubbing.

03:56You'll appreciate it.

03:57Love this low price.

03:58Why do you think they call us Lowe's?

04:00How many colors can you match?

04:02Over a million.

04:04How about this?

04:06When it comes to home improvement, Lowe's knows.

04:23If you wear ordinary contact lenses, your eyes may not be as comfortable as they could be.

04:28Irritating dirt and deposits build up.

04:30How about the free contacts?

04:31I was just getting there.

04:32But AccuView always gives you the comfort of fresh new lenses.

04:35The free contacts?

04:36Oh, right.

04:37Call Johnson & Johnson at 1-800-701-6100 and get a free trial pair of AccuView from your doctor.

04:43The contacts doctors prescribe most.

04:45Free is good.

08:44We wanted to find out the cost differences between gas and electric for two identical homes.

08:53Same size, same insulation, same everything.

08:56So we hired an independent testing company.

08:58The results may surprise you.

09:00Electricity proved to be cheaper than gas.

09:03Which proves all things being equal, gas isn't.

09:07To learn more about the advantages of electric over gas, call 1-800-990-APCO.

09:14Alabama Power, a Southern company.

36:12signed up members

36:13to help the county

36:14school district

36:14educate thousands

36:16of students.

36:17Caring what happens

36:18to them when they

36:18get there.

36:19And I think we can

36:20show that by giving

36:21them better buildings,

36:22better material.

36:23To that end,

36:24the group passed

36:24a resolution calling

36:25for a study of

36:26possible changes

36:27in the tax structure

36:28to better fund

36:29the county school district.

36:30Group organizers

36:31say the $13,000

36:32study project

36:34will be funded

36:35in part by

36:35the city of Mobile.

36:37One prominent

36:38county employee

36:39says he would back

36:40an improved education

36:41funding plan.

36:41I have before

36:42in the past

36:43and I can't see

36:43why I wouldn't.

36:44I don't see anything

36:45more critical

36:45to the future

36:47of this community

36:47than properly

36:49supported schools.

36:50And organizers

36:51say that support

36:51can be measured

36:52in more signatures

36:53and in more dollars.

36:57Now just what

36:58specifically can be done

36:59to improve education

37:01funding for the county

37:02is still undecided.

37:04The group says

37:04that's one of their

37:05major concerns.

37:06Natalie?

37:07Great Andy, thank you.

37:08Hundreds of Mobile

37:08County school teachers

37:09will get a pay raise

37:10next year.

37:11The district is raising

37:12teachers' salaries

37:13to meet state requirements.

37:15About half of the district's

37:164,000 teachers

37:17will get a pay hike

37:18of up to 5%.

37:19The increases affect

37:20non-tenured teachers

37:21and those who have

37:22graduate degrees.

37:23The state will fund

37:24most of the increases

37:25but Barton Academy

37:26estimates it will cost

37:27the district about

37:28two million dollars

37:29over two years.

37:32The money's going to

37:34have to come from somewhere

37:35and unless the state

37:36funds at 100%,

37:37then we're going to

37:40have to take money

37:40from something else,

37:41from some program

37:42or some other event

37:45to pay the increase.

37:48The salary increases

37:49will be phased in

37:50over two years

37:51beginning next fall.

37:53As a whole,

37:54the state of Alabama

37:54ranks poorly

37:55in caring for its children.

37:57That according

37:58to the Kids Count

37:59data book.

38:00The book put out today

38:01by the Annie E. Casey

38:02Foundation reports

38:03on the well-being

38:04of children around

38:05the country.

38:06It looks at factors

38:06like teenage pregnancy,

38:08literacy, graduation rates

38:09and mortality rates.

38:11Alabama ranks close

38:12to the bottom

38:13of the list at 46.

38:15Florida is one below

38:16at 47 and Mississippi

38:17comes in almost dead

38:18last at 49.

38:19And in case you're

38:20wondering,

38:20according to the

38:21Kids Count data book,

38:22Louisiana comes in last.

38:23New Hampshire

38:24is considered the best.

38:26A local man

38:27is hospitalized tonight

38:28after a bizarre accident

38:30traps him underneath

38:31a two-story building.

38:32It happened on

38:33North Lafayette Street

38:34this afternoon.

38:35A construction crew

38:36was renovating

38:36a two-story apartment

38:37when it collapsed.

38:39One worker was partially

38:40pinned underneath

38:41the structure.

38:42His co-workers

38:43were able to pull him

38:44out from underneath

38:44the rubble

38:45before paramedics arrived.

38:49It looks like

38:50on his injuries,

38:51he's got some

38:51lower back injuries,

38:54our left ankle

38:56that may be fractured

38:57as well.

38:58His vitals were good,

38:59which is always

39:00a good sign.

39:00The victim is listed

39:03in stable condition

39:04at USA Medical Center.

39:06Topping our look

39:07at national news,

39:08one of the Republic

39:08of Texas separatists

39:10is dead in a gun battle

39:12with Texas officials.

39:13He's one of two men

39:14who escaped the compound

39:15last week.

39:16Officials say

39:17he'd been shooting

39:17at search dogs

39:18and a police helicopter

39:19and was killed

39:20when officers returned fire.

39:22The other man

39:23is still at large tonight.

39:25Timothy McVeigh's sister

39:26returns to the witness stand

39:28in this morning

39:29testifying against him

39:30in the Oklahoma City

39:31bombing trial.

39:32Jennifer McVeigh

39:33says her brother

39:33hated the government

39:34and told her

39:35of transporting

39:36half a ton of explosives.

39:39Good news

39:40for the tobacco industry,

39:41bad news

39:42for the anti-tobacco interest.

39:44In a Florida courtroom,

39:44the issue was

39:45whether a tobacco company

39:47was responsible

39:47for the cancer death

39:49of a lifelong smoker.

39:51And the answer,

39:52as Mark Strassman reports,

39:53was key at a time

39:55when hundreds of individuals

39:56and two dozen states

39:57are going after

39:58the industry in court.

40:00I understand

40:01that you have reached

40:01a verdict in this case.

40:03It's a huge win

40:04for R.J. Reynolds

40:05and a timely one

40:06for Big Tobacco

40:07under fire.

40:08Was there negligence

40:09on the part

40:10of the defendant,

40:11R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company,

40:13which was a legal cause

40:14of the death

40:15of the decedent,

40:16Gene Conner?

40:17No.

40:18R.J. Reynolds

40:19held not negligent

40:20for producing

40:21an unreasonably dangerous product

40:22or for causing

40:24the death of Gene Conner.

40:26R.J. Reynolds

40:27R.J. Reynolds

40:28Okay.
