05:14When morning comes in the middle of the night, it affects your entire day.
05:21To get a good night's sleep, try two-layer ambient CR.
05:24The first layer dissolves quickly to help you fall asleep.
05:27And unlike other sleep aids, a second dissolves slowly to help you stay asleep.
05:31When taking ambient CR, don't drive or operate machinery.
05:34Sleepwalking and eating or driving while not fully awake, with memory loss for the event,
05:38as well as abnormal behaviors such as being more outgoing or aggressive than normal,
05:42confusion, agitation, and hallucinations may occur.
05:45Don't take it with alcohol, as it may increase these behaviors.
05:47Allergic reactions such as shortness of breath, swelling of your tongue or throat may occur,
05:51and in rare cases may be fatal.
05:53Side effects may include next-day drowsiness, dizziness, and headache.
05:56In patients with depression, worsening of depression, including risk of suicide, may occur.
06:00If you experience any of these behaviors or reactions, contact your doctor immediately.
06:05Wake up ready for your day.
06:06Ask your health care provider for two-layer ambient CR.
06:11Thanks for nothing.
06:12The insurance company keeps giving us the runaround.

06:57Austin Mercadante is from Auburn, Alabama, a graduate student in ornithology.
07:03Yes, sir.
07:04That's an interesting selection. Why that?
07:07Uh, well, my favorite teacher is an undergrad.
07:09He studied birds, and so I kept taking classes with him, and then I started doing research with him.
07:14And now I'm kind of stuck in ornithology. Keep going.
07:17That's a serious study, serious subject.
07:20Yes, sir.
07:21You're also into wild and crazy things.

07:29And I've tried it. I've tried it three times with different types of milk.
07:33Uh, but . . .
07:34Skim, whole milk, chocolate. Which is easier?
07:36Uh, skim was closest. I failed all three times.
07:40You failed all three times?
07:41Yeah, if you throw up, you lose.
07:43Ah, okay. So there's money involved?
07:45Uh, no, not really. Just personal satisfaction.
07:48All righty. Diane Armstrong is from Alexandria, Virginia.

08:13I said, well, wherever you care to, Mr. President, but the photographers would appreciate it if you stood here.
08:19Ah, good. And he had a good sense of humor about that?
08:22He was wonderful.
08:23Yeah. Gary Bechtold is our champion.
08:26You were involved in a marathon race, and you had what I would consider to be an awkward moment. Tell the folks.
08:33Yeah, I was running Grandma's Marathon, which is along the north shore of Lake Superior.
08:36Right.
08:37And about a mile into the race, I passed someone running backwards, and I chuckled to myself, thought that was pretty amusing.
08:43Until he passed me at mile 24, as I was struggling in.
08:47Still running backwards?
08:48He was still running backwards when he finished.
08:50I'd call that embarrassing, all right. Pick up your signaling device, because you have command of the board, and you will make our next selection.

20:15Answer.
20:16Daily Double, all of you.
20:19We are running out of time.
20:21You deal with this Daily Double all by yourself,
20:23and you have a shade over 50% of Gary's total.
20:27I will wager 1,000.
20:30Okay, here is the clue.
20:32In a movable feast,
20:34this writer said that Ezra Pound
20:36taught him to distrust adjectives.
20:44Who is Jeffrey Hill?
20:47No, who is Ernest Hemingway?
20:49Oops.
20:50I have not heard of Jeffrey Hill.
20:52He's my advisor.
20:53Okay.
20:54Well, you're winding up at 9,800, Diane,
20:58with 1,200, and Gary, and even 20,000

21:12If you're taking eight extra-strength Tylenol a day,
21:15on the days that you have arthritis pain,
21:17you could end up taking four times the number of pills
21:19compared to Aleve.
21:20Choose Aleve, and you could start taking fewer pills.
21:23Just two Aleve have the strength
21:25to relieve arthritis pain all day.

25:06Go Jim Go!
25:37Great category, isn't it? The Internet.
25:39Diane, we'll start with you.
25:41You were in third place with $1,200, and you wrote down...
25:44What is a dash?
25:46You wrote down the correct response. Way to go.
25:49And your wager, $700, so you're at $1,900 now
25:52as we move to your left to Austin Mercadante.
25:56His response was...
25:58a slash instead, and that won't do it,
26:01so you'll lose money. How much?
26:04What is that, 4Z?
26:0642.
26:0842. Okay, you're at $9,758.
26:11I'm sure there is some significance to the 42,
26:14and it's not your age.
26:16Gary, over to you now, champ.
26:18You couldn't be caught today,
26:20and you couldn't come up with a correct response,
26:22so maybe it's just as well. Did you wager anything?
26:24No, so you remain at $20,000,
26:26and that gives you now a total of $42,001.
26:31Way to go.
26:33You're a repeat champion who gets to play again tomorrow.

29:48Vegas action, southern style.
29:52On your side, this is News Channel 3 First at 4.
29:58First at 4, there continues to be debate over the big mayoral debate
30:02that will be on News Channel 3 Saturday night at 7.
30:05Candidate Jerry Lawler says he and his lawyer plan on asking the judge to stop that debate.
30:10The reason surrounds last week's poll commissioned by News Channel 3 and the Commercial Appeal.
30:15All candidates were told that only the top four in the poll would be allowed in that debate.
30:21Thanks for joining us.
30:22For WREG News Channel 3 First at 4, I'm Alex Coleman.
30:26And I'm April Thompson.
30:27Lawler received 2% of the vote and came in 6th with more on the maneuverings that's going on.
30:33Here's News Channel 3's watchdog, Mike Matthews.
30:35Oh, it's like a chess match right now, April.
30:37Jerry Lawler says he's as serious about this as he's ever been.
30:40He is upset over the recent Mason-Dixon poll giving him 2% of the vote.
30:44Makes no sense to him, he says,
30:46especially after other polls, he says, showed him in much better position.
30:50The key here, though, is the candidate's debate on Saturday night.
30:53It is two hours of free television time, and that is a big deal for anybody in politics.
30:58In this case, Lawler says he's upset because it will give the perception that he's not a serious candidate.
31:04Lawler says the key is, in his opinion, to get people out to vote and have them ignore the poll results.
31:09I feel it does a big disservice to me and some of the other candidates
31:12in the fact that when a poll shows that I only have 2% of the vote,
31:17you know, that's poisoning the well, so to speak.
31:20I mean, a lot of the voters may say, well, you know, why waste our time to go vote for Jerry?
31:25He's only got 2% of the vote, he can't win.
31:28Jerry Lawler says he and his attorney will probably go to court tomorrow to file for an injunction.
31:32Now, Lawler and all the other candidates were told before the poll results were released
31:36that only the top four in the poll would be allowed on the debates.
31:39Lawler isn't the only one to talk about taking some court action to stop this, however.
31:43Coming up in less than an hour, I'll let you know who else is upset and what will happen this week.
31:48Reporting live, Mike Matthews, WRAG News Channel 3.
31:52Your voice, your vote. Early voting starts Friday for the special election.
31:57Again, we are hosting two debates. One is this Saturday from 7 until 9.
32:01The other is on October 14th, and we've invited the candidates who poll the highest
32:06in an independent poll conducted by Mason-Dixon Polling and Research.
32:10Those candidates are A.C. Horton, Carol Chumney, Myron Lowry, and Charles Carpenter.
