Thanks for the feedback. I have lived (as European) for 2 years in Texas (close to airport Dallas-FW) in a typical suburb. Nice people there but unbelievable naive, as if their religion stopped them to think logically. One example, we have no children and our neighbours one day invited us to their church, they told us the pastor would talk openly about love/sex, so we asked why they invited us, and then it became clear that they thought that we did not know how to get children!! They were serious. We had some good laughs about this back at home. So yeah, this religious indoctrination is very strong in Texas. Of course, they also voted Republican, and if you asked why, you never were getting a clear answer. Probably it was a community-driven (from church) decision. 2 years was enough, great adventure, but we felt like aliens over there.

Healthcare Providers Called to Become COVID-19 Vaccinators
By: Steven E Zimmerman
Tags: Vaccination, Covid, El Paso, Texas

EL PASO, Texas — The City of El Paso Department of Public Health (DPH) encourages local healthcare providers to join the fight against COVID-19 by becoming COVID-19 vaccine providers.

DPH is calling on all local healthcare providers, including pharmacies, to become COVID-19 dispensing sites by enrolling with the Texas Department of State Health Services as a COVID-19 vaccine provider and receive vaccine allocations on a regular basis.

“It is only through community-wide participation by our fellow healthcare providers that we will successfully make vaccine widely available and easily accessible to all El Paso City-County residents within our own neighborhoods,” said Public Health Director Angela Mora.

Mora said the simple enrollment process does require providers to have an active National Provider Identifier (NPI)/Texas Provider Identifier (TPI) number. Providers will be asked to follow all recommendations by the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices and report vaccine usage.

Dallas Businesses Not Staying Safety Compliant as Businesses Reopen In Texas
By: America'S Fire Shield
Tags: Small Business, Dallas, Covid 19, Emergency, Texas

As Dallas becomes one of the first cities to reopen businesses across the country, it’s failing protocol measures. On May 1’st Dallas opened up it’s restaurants. On May 5th, Texas Governor Greg Abbott announced reopening of salons, barber shops, and gyms for May 18th even as Corona virus cases in Texas peaked. Although cases are on the decline, it doesn’t mean Dallas is in the clear yet.

Dallas Fire Extinguisher Inspections On The Rise

From America’s Fire Shield’s experience, we’ve seen an immense amount of fire extinguisher service calls. As businesses got shut down in March, we saw business owners call in last minute due to an increased number of fire extinguisher inspections. Since then most business owners have been preoccupied with how to keep their business afloat. As businesses reopen, we’ll see an increased level of businesses failing to keep up with protocol.

Most importantly, health compliance should be of the highest concern for anyone in the public. Mark Cuban’s test alone shows that many of the CDC Corona Virus guidance isn’t being met.

That Giant Sucking Sound
By: Tim Moore
Tags: Change, Florida, Demographics, Politics, Texas

Those of you old enough to remember Ross Perot’s two runs for President in 1992 and 1996 will remember him ceaselessly saying that we would hear a “giant sucking sound” as Mexico hoovered American jobs as a result of NAFTA.

We can debate whether he was right or wrong about that forecast, but for the last 20 years we have heard a new giant sucking sound as a handful of states hoover the inhabitants of another handful of states: as states like Texas, Arizona, Florida, Utah, Idaho, North Carolina, and Tennessee attract people from states like California, NY, NJ, CT, and Illinois.

The MSM has more or less ignored this story, but it is getting harder and harder to ignore as it accelerates.

At an anecdotal level, the past few months has seen a cavalcade of famous people and companies leaving California, for instance. Joe Rogan and Elon Musk have moved their families to Austin. Ben Shapiro has moved his family and his company to Nashville. Tesla and Oracle are moving to Austin. HP Enterprises is moving to Houston. The country’s largest commercial real estate company — CBRE — moved to Dallas. And the beat goes on. . . .

But the data is even more eye-opening. In the last 9 years (2010–2019), NY has lost 1.4 million people, California 900,000, Illinois 870,000, and NJ 490,000 NET. And Florida has gained 1.2 million, Texas 1.1 million, North Carolina 500,000, and Arizona 450,000 NET.

California and NY lost 0.95% of their entire population NET in 2019 alone!!!

That’s not just a lot of people, it is a mind-numbing wealth transfer. I read somewhere that over $19 billion of wealth has left NY and moved to Florida alone in the past decade.

That giant sucking sound is the sound of holes being burst in the budgets of these losing states. The dirty little secret of these states is that the top 1% of the earners pay about 50% of state taxes, and the top 10% close to all.

Why are people leaving? High taxes, school systems that rank near the bottom in the country, broken infrastructure, an inability to generate middle class jobs, the highest inequality in the country, and cities that are toilets.

Other than that, they are Edens!

People are moving to states with little or no income tax, good schools, new infrastructure, abundant middle class job generation, and the lowest inequality in the country. Florida, which now has 5 million more people than NY, spends 50% as much as NY and ranks vastly higher than NY in every statistical measure of quality of life that exists.

And all the anecdotal evidence points to this trend having supercharged in 2020. . . It will be interesting to see the data as it is reported by demographers next year.

Just sayin’. . . .

Here’s a podcast with former Governor Mike Huckabee, as we talk about many subjects, one of which is this migration:

Hers To Live For (Poem)
By: The Stormy Poet
Tags: Nature, Poetry, Poem, Texas, Poets On Medium

(My Poem About Texas)

I live for her cotton filled skies.

My existence is made worthy by the field’s hazy glow.

I honor the hawk’s trail in her heavens

and the spicy fire ants that tunnel below.

My hometown is her son she raised with pride.

So technically, we’re relatives by a blood that’s red, white, and blue.

My friends and family are also her grandsons and daughters that reside.

It’s due to this very fact that, in my heart, integrity and pride brew.

It has a heart colored white.

It has five points that it boasts of.

It is size, beauty, folks, morale, and might.

That’s from the dusty panhandle to the hurricane’s coast.

The hustle and bustle of the city

are Austin, Houston, San Antonio, and Dallas.

The skylines they boast, silhouetting the dark, make me giddy.

If she is a kingdom, each of them is a palace.

The laid-back and country life are here, too.

Soak up a beer in Laredo, Hill County, or Navarro.

A lasso’s whirl challenges you from Ft. Worth and Prairie View.

The scorpion dares you with its tail, in El Paso.

My niece compliments her soft blue bed of bloom.

It’s no different than countless tykes throughout past centuries.

She generated the smiles of the photos in her room.

My heart is warmed daily with such memories.

She nurtured my woman, to a divine being.

At both of our youths, we trotted her wildlife, with shoes not needed.

Our commotion and mischief sent the squirrel a-fleeing.

But, our presence is what the dragonfly pleaded.

I live for the rays that churn her skies.

The flashes are as the sun, followed by a vicious roar.

Deep within the anvil’s core, the ice of hell resides.

Any shelter is made cratered by its pour.

I live for her people’s pleasant power.

It’s one that no flag or enmity can destroy.

It’s a brotherhood and sisterhood our state showers.

To the rest of the world, may we spread a Texas kind of joy.

With the pristine glory, she yields,

there’re too many reasons to count why we’re blessed natives.

It’s an awesomeness the Maker empowered her to wield.

Never deny me your being Texas.

Never deny me your reasons to live.

From the Soul,

James Avery Odessa Texas
By: Jewelry Store Directory
Tags: James Avery Odessa, James Avery, Texas, Odessa Texas, Jewelry

In the summer of 1954, James Avery began his jewelry company in a two-car garage with a capital of around $250. He designed a small workbench and then purchased a few hand tools and pieces of silver and copper. It was his passion to make jewelry that had meaning for him and his clients, as well as long-lasting appeal.

In 1957, he mailed his first catalog of Christian jewelry. It was 16 pages long and featured 39 pieces, all handmade. He has employed his first employee, Fred Garcia, this year.

The firm expanded and was integrated into James Avery Craftsman, Inc. in 1965. Two years later, with the aid of a modest loan from the Small Business Administration (SBA), the company’s headquarters was built on 20 acres in the heart of Texas Hill Country in Kerrville, not too far from the original garage.

James Avery Jewelry

Word traveled and people made their way to the craftsmen in the hills. Any one who has come will be welcomed directly and with cordial thanks. It was in this environment that deep and long-lasting consumer bonds formed, from which this business would expand and build for more than half a century.

James Avery Odessa Tx

In 2007, fifty-three years since the company was first formed, James Avery officially resigned as CEO and turned over the reins to his son, Chris.

James Avery Odessa

James Avery Handmade Jewelry is a vertically operated family-owned business now based in the heart of Texas Hill Country. We’re a multi-channel chain with 83 James Avery outlets in five continents. Our jewelry is now sold in more than 215 Dillard stores in Texas and 28 other states. Our jewelry is made in James Avery Odessa Tx workshops — one in Comfort, Fredericksburg, Hondo and Kerrville.

Texas woman killed her daughter, 2, with her boyfriend and faked her in a life-size doll

Escaped Tennessee prison inmates found in Florida after manhunt: cops

Tiaundra Christon sent a major search-and-rescue for her girl, Hazana Anderson, to the authorities. The girl’s body was dumped in a lake, wrapped in a bag, tied up with rope, and fastened by a heavy rock to help sink to the bottom, PEOPLE reports, but College Station police officers soon discovered the awful reality.

Christon made a plan with her boyfriend Kenny Hewett to inform officials that on October 28, 2018, her child was missing during a ride from Houston to a Walmart in College Station. The store’s surveillance video shows the mother pushing a stroller inside it with what seems to be Anderson. Sadly, though when Christon declared her missing, it was simply a life-size doll dressed in identical clothes to what the toddler was wearing.

Subject Missing After A Duck Hunting Trip On Lake Tawakoni
By: Chris Miles
Tags: Missing Hunter, Texas, Lake Tawakoni

Hunt County, Texas- A 57 year old male subject is still missing after an all day search of Lake Tawakoni.

Shortly after 1:00PM on Wednesday afternoon, Hunt County Sheriff’s Office received a call of a missing duck hunter who was hunting on Lake Tawakoni. Reports are the hunters personal effects were found on a dock located in the 2 mile marina, just off Highway 276, but the hunter and his boat were missing.

Texas State Game Wardens along with West Tawakoni Fire, Tawakoni South Fire & West Tawakoni Police Departments responded. Once making scene, first responders launched 3 boats and started a search of the lake. Officers were told the hunters phone, keys & wallet were found on the dock.

After a short search turned up nothing, more departments were called to the scene including, Hunt County Sheriff’s Office, Cash Fire & Rescue & East Tawakoni Fire departments.

Texas Department of Public Safety sent out a helicopter around 3:00PM. DPS helicopter 101 made scene and scanned the lake coves, attempting to locate the missing hunter & his Bass Tracker Boat, the search also came up empty.

As sunset approached, and all local departments still on scene, Hunt County received a phone call from a caller stating they believed they found the missing boat. Rescue crews responded in boats to the area of Holiday Shores In Van Zandt County to confirm that the boat the caller found was the missing hunters.

After Officers checked the TX Boat Numbers they were able to confirm that this was in fact the missing hunters boat. On board was a gun, decoys and a kayak that the hunter carried to hunt out of. The hunter himself was nowhere to be found.

The boat was pulled into shore and the search was called off. Texas State Game Wardens will resume the search on Thursday morning at sunrise.
A Pictorial History of Smallpox

Tags: Art, American Indians, Native Americans, Texas, Lakota

It has been two years since the Becoming Texas gallery opened at the Bullock Texas State History Museum. With the exhibition starting the story of Texas 16,000 years ago and ending with Mexican independence in 1821, there is no shortage of stories to tell about the many diverse peoples who made these lands home.

An ever-changing display of artifacts tells these stories, reinforces the idea that a better understanding of our history is always developing, and ensures there is always something new to experience in the gallery. Safely kept in archives, libraries, museums, and in private and family collections around the world, artifacts and primary source documents are the keys to our past that help us understand who we are today. These stories from our past also help us see that struggles people faced in the past are not dissimilar to ones we face today.

Thanks to the Houston Museum of Natural Science and Matthew Davila, a member of the Standing Rock Lakota Sioux Tribe, we had the tremendous honor of being able to display over the past two years a Lakota “winter count,” a pictorial calendar used to record a tribe’s most important events from year to year. For the Lakota, a year was marked from the first snowfall to the following year’s first snowfall. Upon the first snowfall, elders in each community would decide on one particular event that would serve as a historical reminder to be painted on the winter count hide to commemorate the year. The pictographs on the hide allowed history keepers to recall the event as it was shared from generation to generation. When a winter count had filled a hide, copies were often made to distribute the stories in order to guarantee the history of the tribe was well preserved.
Texas Reopening And What It Means For Local Businesses
By: America'S Fire Shield
Tags: Local Business, Fire, Emergency, Texas

Texas was amongst the first states to reopen businesses across the country. On May 1st many Dallas businesses opened up for almost full time hours. Although there are rules like having only 25% of the dining capacity, that was a bold move.

Governor Greg Abbott announced the second phase of reopenings will be started after mid-May where unessential businesses like barber shops, salons, and gyms can open up. The news came in early May when cases were still on the rise. Since then, corona cases in Texas have started to see a slowdown.

Although Texas is first and still in the early stages of reopening, it’s great to see a controlled reopening. With limitations on capacity and more cleaning requirements, many businesses are handling those standards

How to Fight Texas DWI Charges

There are numerous direct and collateral consequences if you are convicted of a DWI, which may include jail time, ignition interlock, driver’s license suspension, and many others. It can affect your career and family for years. Soyars & Morgan Law Dec 16, 2020·3 min read

The Texas Legislature has given many citizens no other choice but to set their case for trial and the majority of cases sitting on the jury trial docket in County Courts are DWI’s. Texas does not have the resources to prosecute so many cases, which means that if you are persistent and patient, you could take advantage of Texas’ DWI case overload. So be smart about your situation and make sure you act quickly — the best Texas DWI defense can be developed by taking advantage of the Administrative License Revocation Hearing (ARL).

While some DWI’s may be eligible for deferred adjudication in Texas, this plea may not be your best outcome. Any type of plea on a Texas DWI will mean the arrest will permanently be on your criminal record and can never be expunged.

If you’ve been arrested, you need an attorney that’s going to fight for you. You need the team at Soyars & Morgan Law!

The book has at its center the story of a cattle drive from South Texas on the Rio Grande to Montana by two ex-Texas Rangers, Captain Woodrow Call and Captain Augustus McCrae, in the late 1870’s (Gus mentions Custer’s Last Stand as a recent event (1876) in the book and the movie), among other subplots. But the real story of the book and the movie is about The West. Not the over-gloried West of old Hollywood and dime novels, but a West of unrelenting hardship. Dust and wind and lightening and dust storms and violence and utter loneliness and — Death. Always death at any time.

McMurtry tried to show the West as it was, not as we had romanticized it, and he succeeded. The book won the Pulitzer Prize in 1986 back when winning the Prize meant something, and the movie — all 6 hours and 6 minutes of it — was aired in 1989, winning the cast and production many awards.

Few movies have as many first-rate actors in it as this one: Robert Duvall, Tommy Lee Jones, Angelica Huston, Diane Lane, Robert Urich, Danny Glover, and great character actors like Steve Buscemi, Chris Cooper, and Frederic Forest. But not just a fine cast — a fine cast, almost all of whom delivered the best performance of heralded careers. And, oh, the cinematography and the score!

You might want to let it get you, too.

Maybe you might want to hear more about the American West from America’s finest living historian of the American Experience, HW Brands, as he talked with us about his book, Dreams of Eldorado: A History of the American West.
How to make Favors extra-special this season

Tags: Holiday Packages, Texas, Runner Tips, Holidays, Favor Delivery

For many Runners, the holidays bring a whole new meaning to the phrase “special delivery.”

Whether they’re dropping off dinner or doing a last-minute gift run, they go the extra mile to spread joy with every Favor during the holiday season — from suiting up like Santa (the original Runner) to including candy canes with every order.

We recently asked Runners across the state to share their most heartwarming holiday Favors and tips for making customers’ days merry and bright.

I usually run Favors during the holidays just to make the extra cash for Christmas presents! I love doing festive makeup, wearing jingle-bell jewelry, and [dressing up in] an ugly Christmas sweater and leggings! It’s so much fun! The tips are better, but honestly, I just love making people smile.

–Linda J., Houston I do little holiday-themed thank you notes that are taped to orders. I also do holiday memes featuring my amazing sidekick!

What Are the Benefits of Bankruptcy?
By: Corey Mills
Tags: Bankruptcy Attorneys, Bankruptcy, Bankruptcy Law, Lawyers, Texas

Many of the customers who come to the Law Office of Corey L. Mills for aid in filing bankruptcy have been living their life in poverty for so long that they can hardly recall what it’s like not paying huge amounts of money. You may have spent years or even decades seeing yourself slipping further and further into debt steadily, or rapidly.

Debt is a self-feeding problem; it’s a declining spiral: the more you owe, the more money your paycheck costs on interest payments, making it tougher for you to buy the stuff you need and want and making it more likely that you’re going to use your credit cards or take out a new loan. It can be incredibly hard to get out of debt, and the most prudent option for certain persons is to apply for bankruptcy. That is why a consultation with a bankruptcy attorney is critical.

Depending on whether you are qualified to file under U.S. Chapter 7 or Chapter 13. You could see the Bankruptcy Code discharging the debts in a matter of months, or it could take as much as five years. In this case, you will be secured by the compulsory stay as soon as you file your motion with the bankruptcy court, which is an order that prevents you from your creditors’ further actions.

Looking for a lawyer in Katy, Richmond, Copperfield, or Sugar Land for a bankruptcy case? Contact a Katy bankruptcy lawyer now for a free consultation to explore your options and get started on a plan for your case if you are tired of living in debt and are ready to make a new financial start!

Out of Range

Out of Range

by Sebastian Palomino on Pexels

West Texas land runs flat for a note

like a string unstruck

then rises into ridges

plucked by stratus clouds

feathering down like fingers,

and the mountains

are fists banging

They knock at you and you open up

to listen but too late,

after crescendo and sounds cascade

then fall off into canyons,

a mystery you just missed hearing,

the swell before the fade

A gorge is left in your ground

as you swallow the sound

of what you can’t hear,

and it’s a lump in the throat

You yearn to feel

what’s too hollow to touch:

whispers just out of your range

Your eyes tear as the dust dances

to wind whistling beyond your ears

It is a loss paramount

to a song you’ve forgotten,

and the mountains

are fists banging
Excerpt from The Endless Corridor at the End of the World: Louisiana Crossing
By: Rainer Blue
Tags: Covid 19, Texas, Mississippi, Masks, Louisiana

I pull into a little gas station in a little town in nowhere, Mississippi. Outside, a sign is posted, “No entry without masks”. Inside, no one is wearing masks, of course. Three obese women are buying lottery tickets and one stares at me. Their translucent skin is stretched across their legs and hangs off of their skulls. The entire store is full of nothing but garbage to eat. I fill my styrofoam cup with stale, watered-down American filter coffee and pay for the $1.16 cup with a credit card. American Express. The coffee is lukewarm and tastes like paper. I get back into the car and in a few minutes I’ve crossed into Louisiana. The sign says “Bienvenue en Louisiane”. Most of the towns are in French although no one speaks French here anymore. Maybe a few old people hidden in the swamps, the rest just “talk funny”. The Anglo-Americans were convinced good, upstanding, Real American citizens shouldn’t speak two languages and they had the Louisiana children beaten if they spoke French in school. “Our way is the Best Way. Our Way is the Only Way.” Protestants with dull, plain faces and long, white legs, marching across the continent- mistaking historical coincidence for divine providence and evident superiority. A repeating story across time.

After awhile, I’ll be in Texas, a country in itself although still blanketed with the same, ugly shit that covers the nation and feeds the supposed tastes of its citizenary. After that, New Mexico, most of which looks like another planet. In these states I will drive though towns mostly of Spanish names, often filled with people of Mexican ancestry. Most of them will speak little Spanish- their grandparents also beaten in school for speaking the language of their own people. I pull into the Motel 6 parking lot and check-in. The extremely large, morbidly obese security guard is asleep in his chair. He also has no mask and I hope he doesn’t get Covid. A re-run of “Martin” from the 90s is blaring on the TV. The volume is up so loud the little box shakes everytime the laugh-track plays. A young man leans against the wall. I ask him a question but he doesn’t respond. He stares into his phone like a zombie. Outside is a street sweeper, compressing the cracked, aged pavement and sucking up anything different or obstructionist in its path. It passes by me and the ugly street is clean now. The lights from the nearby McDonalds and Wal-Mart blot out the stars.”

VLB Wishes the National Guard a Happy Birthday!
By: Texas Vlb
Tags: Veterans, National Guard, Happy Birthday, Texas

On December 13th, the Veterans Land Board recognizes the birthday of the National Guard. Originally the militia of the several states, the National Guard today has multiple missions and serves as a unique element of the United States military, responding to: “domestic emergencies, overseas combat missions, counterdrug efforts, reconstruction missions and more”, according to its own website.

The National Guard actually predates the birth of the United States by a long while! This is the 384th National Guard birthday, while America as a country is a mere fledgling of 244 years. In Massachusetts in 1636, the General Court required all men between the ages of 16 and 60 to create a standing Army for defense. The idea was simply to establish an Army of citizen-soldiers who could be called upon to fight when needed. Those units later became the state militia, then the National Guard, so they trace their ancestry all the way back to the 17th century.

Another fascinating fact is that the Air National Guard predates the Air Force, not formed until 1947. The oldest Air National Guard unit is the 102nd Rescue Squadron of the New York Air National Guard, formed in 1915, and the oldest continuously operating unit is the 109th Airlift Squadron of the Minnesota Air National Guard, organized in 1921.

The men and women of the Army and Air National Guards train regularly, generally two days a month with longer training annually. Guardsmen, once almost exclusively state-bound, however now can be activated for active duty with the regular military branches. Many have served abroad in active hot zones, and their families have experienced deployments similar to those of active-duty troops. Service for the Guard may not be a full-time job, but its demands require a lifestyle of commitment and sacrifice.

The Veterans Land Board salutes all Guardsmen, current and former, and congratulates them on the National Guard birthday today. Thank you for your service!

If you are a Veteran, thank you for your service. Click Here to Sign Up to stay informed on your benefits with the Texas Veterans Land Board.

(Poem) My Winter Flower
By: T.R. Savage
Tags: Poems On Medium, Yellow Roses, Winter Flower, Texas

Mid December, I look outside and I shiver

Stepped outside to drop off one of my deliveries

Cold breeze will stab you like a quiver in your rear

Cold air up your spine freeze your bladder to your liver

Nothing living can survive these cold Kentucky winters

Back in 99 got married to a pretty young lady

On Christmas day we got all legal, so says the state

Gotta be a special girl to love a long haul Trucker

Yet who else brings home Yellow Roses from Texas

My Lady, I love Thee, are you still my Winter Flower
