AFLAC insurance and AANR have an agreement that makes two insurance plans–one that covers accidents and one that provides supplemental cancer coverage–available to AANR members at special member savings.

Ban On Human Clothing?
|
Salem, Oregon, cartoonist Glen Bledsoe’s inspiration for his latest cartoon strip Nota Bene was inspired by his misreading of the recent House bill proposed by Representative Donna Nelson to ban human cloning. Bledsoe’s three previous strips were titled “Nude Anatomy,” “The Naked Hitchhiker” and “Skin Deep,” and thought Nelson had come around to his way of thinking and was inspired to create legislation that revealed the beauty of the human body. His latest cartoon is called “The Ban on Human Clothing.” Read Bledsoe’s cartoon.

Nude Sculpture Removed
|
A controversial nude sculpture was removed from a roundabout sculpture park in Loveland, Colorado. Residents were concerned about children viewing the sculpture that depicts two women and one man. Artist Kristin Kokkin wanted the sculpture to be “kind of a wheel so that the energy is flowing from all three of them and it really and truly is how humanity relies on support of people.” According to Jim Baldwin, of the Loveland Visual Arts Commission, there has been controversy about every nude that has been part of the collection. A poll on cbs4denver.com revealed that 71% of respondents felt the statue should not be removed.The 1,200 lb. bronze was moved in a flatbead truck across town at a cost of about $8,000.
