	The Osage County Sheriff&amp;#39;s Office is making changes to its mailing system in an effort to keep things more secure at the jail.

	&amp;nbsp;

	With the new mailing system, each letter must be sent to &amp;quot;Osage County Jail, PO Box 591 Longview, Tx 75606.&amp;quot;That mail will then be sent electronically to the Osage County Jail.

			<description><![CDATA[
	Elder Care&amp;#39;s Cool Room Project is designed to offer relief to seniors in our community who do not have air conditioning in their homes during the hottest months of the year. Windo unit air conditioners are available for then to use for 3 years to those who qualify.

	&amp;nbsp;

	Appearing on COMMUNITY CONNECTION, Michael Colaw with Elder Care said, &amp;quot;With the harshest part of summer upon us, we are down to just one window unit air conditioner for a qualified senior. We are asking for donations of window units or just the money for us to buy them.&amp;quot;&amp;nbsp;

	&amp;nbsp;

	To qualify, seniors must have one room in their house with a door that can be shut, allowing for that room to be &amp;ldquo;The Cool Room.&amp;rdquo; The room must have a window near a 110-volt capacity outlet. It is not the intent of the project to cool an entire house but to provide a safe &amp;ldquo;Cool Room&amp;rdquo; during the deadly heat of summer days. Qualified individuals must be senior citizens, age 60 or older. If you or someone you know is qualified to benefit from this project, please call us at (918) 336-8500.

			<description><![CDATA[
	Coffeyville firefighters rescued a dog from the Verdigris River on Wednesday night after locating the animal clinging to the riverbank downstream from the city&amp;#39;s water treatment plant.

	Emergency crews responded to a report of a dog in distress on River Road below the city&amp;#39;s water treatment plant at about 8 p.m. July 1. Firefighters launched the department&amp;#39;s rescue boat and found the dog about 50 yards downstream, where it was holding onto the riverbank.

	During the rescue, the frightened dog bit one of the firefighters, causing minor superficial injuries. Despite the bite, firefighters safely brought the dog aboard the rescue boat.

	The dog was turned over to the Coffeyville Police Department, which transported it to Coffeyville Friends of Animals for care.

	No additional information about the dog&amp;#39;s condition or how it ended up in the river was immediately available.

			<title><![CDATA[Thursday Area Lake Levels]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[
	Water levels at lakes across northeastern Oklahoma remain well above normal, but are receding as the Independence Day holiday weekend approaches.

	As of Thursday morning, Hulah Lake stands more than 12 feet above its normal level, while Copan Lake is just over 11 feet above normal. The Corps of Engineers continues to limit releases from both reservoirs because of flooding concerns along the Caney River downstream.

	Other area lakes also remain elevated following recent heavy rainfall, but are slowing falling.

	In Osage County, Birch Lake is 4.5 feet above normal, while Skiatook Lake remains 2 feet above its typical level. Keystone Lake is 17.75 feet above normal, and Kaw Lake is just under 17 feet above normal.

	In Nowata and Rogers counties, Oologah Lake remains more than 15 feet above normal.

	Water levels are falling at Grand Lake, a popular holiday destination. As of Thursday morning, the reservoir is more than 5.5 feet above its normal elevation.

	The elevated lake levels come as thousands of boaters, campers and anglers are expected to visit Oklahoma lakes during the Independence Day holiday. Visitors are encouraged to use caution, as high water levels can create stronger currents, floating debris and other hazards.
