Man wrecks city vehicle, injures two officers at Azle police station BY CARLA NOAH STUTSMAN A former employee of the Springtown Independent School District is held in the Tarrant County jail after he waged an attack on the Azle Police Department Saturday night, April 5. A police vehicle owned by the city was damaged and two offi cers were injured in the wake of the attack. Robert Rubin Garza III, 26, of the La Junta area, was charged with driving while intoxicated, a B misdemeanor; criminal mischief $1,500-20,000, a state jail felony; and three counts of assault on a public servant. Garza is held in lieu of $2,500 bond for the DWI charge; however, he is confi ned without bond for the criminal mischief and assault charges.

ed. Near him, Scheid, who had just started his shift, was placing his gear into the unit he would be driving. The offi cers heard a sudden, loud boom and ran around the corner of the building to see a green 1997 Ford Escort that had backed into the department’s unit 119, a Tahoe typically driven by the Corporal on each shift. Damage was obvious. Garza was behind the wheel of the Escort, attempting to restart the engine. When Kuenzle and Scheid approached the driver and told him to get out of the vehicle, he told them “No, I’m leaving.” When he realized his car was not going to start, Garza got out of the car, looked at the offi cers and said, “I did Just another night For Azle police offi cers Eric Scheid that on purpose.” Then Garza walked toward the offi and Alex Kuenzle, it was just another cers, who ordered him to stop and get shift change. on the ground.

Former AHS wrestler dies in Colorado Heard grew up in Azle area BY MARK K. CAMPBELL Dammion Heard, a Texas high school state wrestling champion who honed his skills in Azle, died in Colorado. The 20-year-old student-athlete at Western State University in Gunnison had just completed his freshman season. Heard was last seen on the campus Saturday, March 29. His body was discovered on Bureau of Land Management property about eight miles from Gunnison April 3. Heard’s death is still under investigation. Azle High School coach Chris Allen

said part of the reason for the success of some AHS wrestling athletes today is because of Dammion. “He was part of the original group of Azle wrestlers in Texas Select,” Allen said. “I’ve known him my whole time here.” Allen said they often saw each other at camps and clinics. Heard was a member of Azle’s national dual team that competed successfully in Fargo, North Dakota. The coach said Heard would encourage other athletes to come try wrestling. “He would work with them and encourage them,” Allen said. “Dammion was just that kind of kid.

“Despite all the success he had as a wrestler, he was always giving back to other wrestlers and youth wrestlers – doing anything asked to help another wrestler get better. That is an admirable trait not often seen by kids with his success.” After qualifying for the state UIL tournament as an alternate his freshman year as a Hornet, Heard moved to Keller where he attended Fossil Ridge. As a senior he won the state championship in the 113-pound class. Even after he moved, Allen said Heard returned to Azle to help instruct. From Keller, Heard headed to Gunnison where, at 125 pounds, he earned a starting berth as a true freshman. He posted a 10-12 record before a knee injury slowed his season. Western State University president Greg Waggonner said, “We are deeply saddened by the loss of Dammion. He was a valuable member of the Moun-

Funeral services are planned locally for Sunday, April 13. Allen summed the feelings of many with an online post: “Too talented, taken too soon. He worked too damn hard and earned everything he ever got, including a permanent place in our hearts.”

Because of some routine maintenance, Garza could not be kept in the Azle jail. He was transported to the Lake Worth jail instead, where he remained until Tuesday, April 8 when he was moved to the Tarrant County jail. The damage Azle Police Lt. Bill Russell said on Tuesday that an insurance estimator is due to assess the damage to PD unit 119. A dollar amount for the damage to the vehicle won’t be known until that happens, but it expected to be more than $1,500. Martinez is believed to have a sprained ankle, while Scheid’s hand and/or wrist are believed to be sprained, as well. Initial reports are they each of the officers will be off work at least one week. Depending upon how they heal, either could end up being off work longer. “Obviously, this was a troubled young man who was upset about something. When he happened upon the Azle Police Department, he decided to vent some of his frustrations, which resulted in a physical confron-

tation with our officers,” Russell said. “I’m very grateful that our officers sustained only minor injuries and no one was badly hurt in this incident.” Hatton said in almost nine years as a police officer, he’s never seen or heard of anything like what happened Saturday night. “For this to happen at the station, on our ground – it was a complete assault on our officers,” Hatton said. “Kuenzle and Ravenscroft were both off duty. It just goes to show that officers have to be on alert at all times.” The fallout Among the items found in Garza’s car was an ID badge for the Springtown Independent School District. SISD Superintendent Mike Kelley said April 8 that Garza is no longer employed by the district. “Our policy dictates very clearly what our actions will be in cases such as this,” Kelley said. “It’s a very simple decision-making path.” Kelley said Garza had been employed by the district in its maintenance and grounds department.

Silver Creek PE teacher secures physical fitness grant n sIlVEr, FROM PAGE ONE.

Shearer faced off against coaches from Cesar Chavez Elementary School, Central Elementary School and West Elementary School, all selected by Project Fit America for the competition. With assistance from Baylor University Head Men’s Basketball Coach Scott Drew and Texas A&M Head Men’s Basketball Coach Billy Kennedy, each local PE coach was asked to make a custom pizza, using a protein, vegetable and cheese

of their choice and a full suite of LG provided appliances The dishes were judged by an expert panel that included college and professional basketball legend Clyde Drexler, LG Electronics USA Head of Marketing Dave VanderWaal, and James Music from the culinary school at the Art Institute of Dallas. Shearer gives credit where credit is due. “It was an awesome, exciting event that was such a wonderful and humbling thing to be a part of,” Shearer said. “To be

chosen as the sole winner out of 800 PE teachers is truly a blessing from God, and only because of God.” Shearer said winning the grant on college basketball’s grandest stage and bringing home the prize for the school and district he loves so much was a great feeling. “I mean, hey – how many people can say that legendary Hall of Famer Clyde Drexler hit them up for diet and workout advice?” Shearer quipped. “It was truly a wonderful experience. It’s one of those moments

in life where God is telling you that you are exactly where He wants you to be, doing exactly what He wants you to do. I am so thankful to Project Fit America and LG for this amazing opportunity and blessing for me, Silver Creek, and Azle ISD.” “Trey has exemplified what it means to Do Game Day Right,” said William Cho, president and CEO of LG Electronics USA. “Silver Creek Elementary School is more than deserving of this grant. With LG, it’s all possible, and we’re pleased to be able to help students be-

come more active for years to come.” The Four Final schools were selected through a grant process implemented by Project Fit America, which reviewed dozens of entries from schools in the North Texas area. While Silver Creek Elementary School will receive the LG Project Fit grant, all four schools will receive a variety of LG products including computer monitors, HDTVs, and refrigerators. “After reading and reviewing the applications from each of

these schools, it was clear they were all deserving of the LG physical fitness grant and each would serve as an excellent model and pilot school for the North Texas region,” said Stacey Cook, executive director at Project Fit America. “Each school’s application reflected its commitment to its students and their health. They were all great sports at the LG Coaches’ Cook-Off, and we’re looking forward to the groundbreaking at Silver Creek Elementary School later this year.”

APD promotes duo to Corporal by carla noah stutsman Two Azle police officers – David Poe and J.D. Ravenscroft – were promoted to the rank of Corporal and began serving in that capacity April 6. Poe was born in Indianapolis, Indiana, but got to Texas as fast as he could. Most of his school years were spent in the Keller ISD, where he graduated. Poe has been with the Azle Police Department since February 2008. For the past threeplus years, he has served as a detective in the department’s criminal investigation division. Poe is married and he and his wife are the parents of two young daughters. Ironically, Poe says his best friend since their sophomore

year in Keller ISD is Azle PD Corporal Zach Hatton. Hatton recently left his fulltime position with the department in order to serve as copastor at Lake Worth Baptist Church; however, he retained his rank and continues to serve as a reserve Corporal and as the department’s Public Information Officer. In a sense, Poe is filling his best friend’s former position. The promotion means Poe will be going “back to the streets.” While it will be drastically different from the job he’s been doing for the past several years, he’s looking forward to brushing up on his skills and being a positive leader for other of-

ficers. “I’m very thankful for the position I’ve been in and for the knowledge I’ve gained as a detective,” Poe said. “I think that knowledge will be beneficial in my new position.” Ravenscroft grew up in the tiny town of Lawn – yes, it’s in Texas, about 20 miles south of Abilene. He attended the police academy at Tarleton State University in Stephenville and became a police officer in 1998. Ravenscroft began his career as a deputy with the Callahan County Sheriff’s Office and then served with the Johnson County Sheriff’s Office before working for a private contractor as an International Police

Liaison Officer training officers in Iraq. Upon his return to America, Ravenscroft was an Azle police officer for two-and-a-half years before he was requested to go back to Callahan County to serve as Chief Deputy. But when the Sheriff of Callahan County did not win reelection, Ravenscroft knew he wanted to come back to Azle. His wife, who has family in the area, was in favor of the move, as well. His prior supervisory experience will be a plus in his new job as corporal. “This department is progressing, and I want to be part of that,” Ravenscroft. Ravenscroft and Poe will fill

AHS Indoor Drumline wows judges in College Station n ahs, FROM PAGE ONE.

of the state championship in the Scholastic Open class at Reed Arena in College Station April 5 at the Texas Color Guard Circuit Championships. Calling it a perfect ending to an incredible season, Kearns said he encouraged his students to go into the competition with a particular mindset. “Let’s make tonight about this wonderful show that’s impacting people to the point of tears,” he told them. “If we do that, the scores will take care of themselves, and we’ll be hard to beat.” He was right. With a score of 91.825, the AHS Indoor Drumline beat out six other finalists for the state win. Falling in place behind the Azle group were percussion powerhouses Pasadena Memorial, Lake Travis, Cy-Fair, Clearbrook, Boswell, and Morton Ranch High Schools, respectively. With steam still rising from its newly acquired state trophy, thoughts are already turning to next year – which means raising funds for a return trip to Dayton, Ohio and the World Championships. Positive, constant feedback from competition judges – some of whom are also judges for the World Championships – as well as other directors is

unanimous, and it’s encouraging, Kearns said. “They can’t believe we’re not taking this show to Worlds,” he said. “And they encourage us to get back there next year because they say we are obviously a legitimate competitor.” In fact, one judge commented that the Azle Indoor Drumline is on the verge of becoming one of “THE” best groups in the nation and said he can’t wait to be there and watch it happen. The buzz is also apparent at the students’ level. “These kids are almost celebrities among other groups who look up to them,” Kearns said. “They performed for the entire student body and faculty Friday before the competition, and got a great response from them, as well.” Kearns says he’s already feeling very confident that next year will be another very strong year for the AHS Indoor Drumline program.

He thinks it will be just as good – and possibly even better – than this year. The AHS Drumline will be looking at several fundraising opportunities during the upcoming year. Right now, they’re eyeing taking bids from area businesses that would like to showcase the Drumline’s state trophy for a week. If you’re interesting in putting up some green for a chance to host that trophy for a week in your business, call Azle High School at 817-4445555 and ask to be transferred to the band hall. Members of the 2014 AHS Indoor Drumline include: Tyler Adams, Lydia Bazan, Noel Brownback, Shelbi Burgett, Kyle Buss, Austin Choate, Savannah Crabtree, Josh Dang, Kyle Davis, Sadie Dickman, Garrett Gibbons, Ashley Green, Megan Hughes, Katie Jobe, Robbie Jobe, Ava Judd, and Gabriela Martinez.

Report it: You could save a child’s life by carla noah stutsman April is Child Abuse Prevention Month, and the Parker County Child Protective Services board is dedicated to bringing awareness to and prevention of the tragedy of child abuse and neglect that many children live with every day. To that end, board member Angie Childers delivered boxes of supplies – pencils, pens and armbands – for students to the Azle ISD Thursday, April 3. “Reporting child abuse and neglect can be the difference between life or death for a defenseless child,” Childers said. “We believe that students and teachers can be a first line of defense in recognizing and reporting abuse.” Reporting has the power to prevent child abuse, change the outcome for abused children and to strengthen our community, Childers continued. In Texas alone, 40,249 cases of child abuse were confirmed in 2013 and 156 children died as a result of child abuse. If you see signs or symptoms of child abuse or neglect, please call 800-252-5400 and report what you see. You can also report child abuse and/or neglect online at www. txabusehotline.org. The Parker County Child Protective Services board will host “Saddle Up for Kids,” its annual Celebrity Chuck Wagon Dinner, May 1 at the Parker County Sheriff’s Posse Rodeo Grounds.

Savage earns Eagle rank Thomas Lawson Savage earned the rank of Eagle Scout in January 2014. The Eagle Court of Honor was held in Savage’s honor at Azle First United Methodist Church Sunday, March 23. Savage, a member of Troop 243, earned 25 merit badges as well as the Brotherhood of the Order of the Arrow and God and Life religious medal. He also attended the National Youth Leadership Training and participated in an 80-mile backpacking trek at Philmont Scout Ranch in New Mexico. Savage’s Eagle service project was a “Back to School” event held in August 2013 at Azle FUMC that provided backpacks, school supplies and clothing to the Azle community.

A free lunch was also served. In total, 167 Azle parents and children benefi ted from this event that totaled more than 300 hours of community service by more than 30 volunteers. Savage is currently ranked number one in his senior class at Azle High School. He is an active member of his church youth group and youth choir. He has served as the Azle High School Swim Team Captain for three years and was a regional qualifi er for four years. Thomas Lawson “TJ” Savage is a member of the Savage earns Eagle Scout. AHS Improv Troupe, a member of the National Honor Society, tor Ted Cruz and an appointis an AP Scholar with Distinc- ment to attend the United States tion, and a commended Nation- Naval Academy at Annapolis, Maryland as part of the Class al Merit Scholar.

UTSA and Azle Pride

New badges represent a new direction for Azle Police Department BY CARLA NOAH STUTSMAN Azle Chief of Police Randy Reed says the new badges his offi cers are wearing represent a new chapter for the Azle Police Department. “The new badge design is one of the last pieces in a rebranding of the department,” Reed said. “The rebranding effort shows we are looking toward the future while recognizing the past.” Patrol vehicles and uniforms have already undergone redesigns, Reed said. The new badges actually cost less per badge than the ones worn by April offi cers since the

late 1980s, when then-Azle Police Chief Ted Garber incorporated badges from the Garland Police Department, where he had previously served. Those badges were an “offthe-shelf” design, whereas the new badges are custom designed and only worn by one other agency in the nation, Reed explained. The department formed a committee to study badge designs, and after the selection was narrowed down, samples were obtained before the committee made its fi nal choice. “All this came about because

the offi cers have been asking for it,” Reed said. “They wanted a new image.” Eventually, a long hoped-for new facility will fi nalize the rebranding effort, Reed said. “ We have f i v e a n d 10-year plans in place for our technology and information-gathering systems that will also improve the department and its efficiency,” Reed said. At least one of the “old” badges will be presented to the Azle Historical Museum where it can be preserved for historic

purposes, Reed said. The Azle Crime Control and Prevention District provided the funding for one badge per officer. Off-duty badges as well as off-duty cases will be paid for by individual offi cers should they choose to purchase them.

New One Small Step AHS scholarship created

Regional A Champions

Former students pitch in to help a new graduate by mark k. campbell Seven Azle High School graduates have created a new academic scholarship. Called One Small Step, one senior from the Class of 2014 will receive $1,000. Tyler Stevens, One Small Step’s communication director, said there’s a reason it’s called One Small Step. “It was chosen because at one point in our lives, we were all crawling...until the day we decided to take one small step forward,” he noted. AHS grads from the Classes of 2009, 2010, and 2011 contributed to the fund. The former Hornets attended the University of

Texas at San Antonio, UT-Austin, the University of North Texas, and Tarleton State University. To apply for the scholarship, hopefuls submit a 500-character paragraph describing current and future goals and pair that with a 60-second video of “What Drives You.” Applications will be judged on creativity, talent, and “personability.” All videos will be accepted through the One Small Step Facebook page at www.facebook. com/onesmallstepscholarship. Find application tips at the group’s Twitter site, @OSSscholarship. For more information on One Small Step, contact Stevens at tylercolestevens@gmail.com.

District track meet begins at Little Elm HS

Little Elm HS was again the site of the annual District 5-4A track meet. The two-day event was not concluded by press time – see our Facebook or Twitter sites for updates. Competing on day one were hurdler Bailey Uptmore (above right) and district champ discus thrower, Tyler Shemberger. Joining him as a regional qualifer: pole vaulters Sarah Hall and Brooke Smith and discus standouts Katy O’Dell and Maddie Parkison. Photos by Mark K. Campbell

Ladies the team to beat in Region I ball By MARK K. CAMPBELL The Lady Hornet softball team keeps going one direction – up. With a 4-1 road win at Denton Guyer – a 20-win squad – Azle (24-4, 10-0) continued its march to the upper reaches of the Texas Girls Coaches Association 4A poll. Now Azle is No. 8 and the highest ranked Region I team in the state. One more victory (results were not available at press time) secured a playoff spot with three games remaining in 5-4A action. The Lady Hornets hit the ball at Guyer but didn’t score until the sixth inning. Sam Bradley got half of Azle’s RBI while Raelyn Temper and Bailee Carter batted in teammates, too. Carter’s blow was a triple. Temple, who scored twice, swatted a two-bagger and Sarah Brown also doubled. Rebekah Teel joined Carter and Temple with a pair of hits. Starting pitcher Makenzi Harris went the distance, mystifying Lady Wildcats by striking out 15 of them. The Guyer run in the sixth was unearned. The Lady Hornets have one remaining home game. That clash against Denton is Senior Night April 18. Looming bigger before then is an April 11 game against Brewer, still state-ranked like Raelyn Temple fires a ball in from the outfield fence. Azle. The teams play in White Azle is unbeaten in 5-4A play. Photo by Mark K. Campbell Settlement at 6:30 p.m.

Azle gets big win over Guyer Hornet baseball coach Anthony Barron said Azle (8-131, 3-5) needed to have a good second half for a chance at a playoff berth. That effort began with a plus when AHS gave Guyer just its second loss of 5-4A play, 8-2. Barron said, “It was one of those games where everything went right for us.” Azle trailed 1-0 but tallied four runs in the top of the third. Logan Woody got hit by a pitch then Dalton Cole doubled. That was followed by a homer from Trey Ramos.

The scoring continued when Trevor Boiles walked then Tommy Kay doubled him home. “We never let up,” Barron said after gaining the lead. Kay pitched six innings and got the win with a frame of relief from Zach Tucker. Ramos scored twice and had a pair of stolen bases. Also collecting RBI: Jesse Salisbury and Trent Walcott. Barron said, “This keeps us in the hunt for the playoffs. The team is playing well and with a sense of urgency.”

With rounds of 83 on day one and an 81 over the next outing, her tally of 164 was good for sixth place overall – just two strokes from a regional spot, coach Eddy Prather said. “She really did a great job,” the coach said. As a team, the Lady Hornets

Grubbs will compete again in a national tourney in May. Gilbert, Ariosa, and Grubbs were All-American. Harley Stringer finished second with a big OT win over a Azle’s district golf team: (l-r) Miranda Davis, Alison Pargirl from Minnesota. is, Jessica Simants, and Brianna Elder.

On bearing down on a really big anniversary

y 40th wedding anniversary is on the horizon. (I know what you’re thinking: “No way a guy who looks like that photo over there could possibly be married 40 years! Sixty, maybe…” Actually, the anniversary isn’t until the summer of 2015, but at my age, you round up all numbers just in case.) Anyway, the Bride and I don’t always agree about things. Well, almost nothing, really. After Jesus, Kincaid’s, and Kauai, the list peters out. I believe in marking major life events and being married for 40 years – I’m assuming it will happen – qualifies. While a return trip to Kauai hasn’t been ruled out, we have different ideas about personal dream destinations. The Bride is a photographer and a lover of wide open spaces.

She is determined to get to Alaska where the light is supposed to be wonderful, the colors spellbinding, and the wilderness begging to be shot – either with a camera or a gun. All I can think is that Alaska is the bear capital of the earth. As someone who has a premonition of his death and that it will come – somehow – via a bear, Alaska is about the last place I want to visit. Previous columns have detailed the reason why bears are most evil creatures on the planet: Humans can’t out-run them, out-swim them, or outclimb them. That doesn’t leave much in the way of escape. Shooting bears just makes them mad – almost as angry as spraying “bear repellent” at them which probably works better than “shark repellent” – unless you get the hard-to-find Bat Shark Repellent (Bat utility belt extra) that was taken off the market back in the mid-60’s or so. That stuff

worked great! Supposedly, if you give bears fair warning by singing ditties as you march along the tundra, they will let you be. I don’t believe doesn’t ON YOUR that; that actually MARK alert the bears you are Mark K. Campbell that near? BEAR 1: (paws over ears) What’s that god-awful noise? BEAR 2: Sounds like someone singing – or trying to sing – Air Supply. BEAR 1: Score! Lunch! There are two more problems with Alaska. The Bride wants to cruise there. I’m not great on the water,

something that has curiously come with old age. On the ship, there’s all that bobbing and weaving and rolling and, eventually, barfing. No scenery is lovely if your head is buried in a bucket. Plus, cruises don’t exactly have the greatest reputations. They are even worse disease infested areas than day care centers. And what if we lost power and became adrift in the cold Alaskan waters with all that rolling and rocking while the horizon filled with wild-eyed, smiling bears swimming rapidly toward the listing boat…no thanks. The other major Alaskan problem – aside from it being cold all the time – is mosquitoes. My Uncle Billy was stationed there during WW II and he said they are gigantic beasts that you can literally hear flying from afar as they swarm upon any poor sucker who dares to disembark the still-bobbing ocean liner.

So, as you can see, I’m not an Alaska guy. And the bride is far from crazy about my choice, New York City. Not that we’ve ever been, but, to me, NYC is a magical place filled with great history, artists of every sort, museums, and is the pulse of the planet. The Bride could not imagine a worse place: crowded, murderers and muggers and Travis Bickles everywhere, loud, full of rude people, and, very likely, stinky. I think Manhattan and she thinks Taxi Driver. Alaska versus New York. Since one of the keys to staying married 40 years (well, in Aug. 2015) is compromise, I suppose we’ll end up in Kansas City – I wonder how the bear situation is up there? Mark K. Campbell is the News editor and, yes, he referenced the 1966 film Batman: The Movie starring the only real Batman, Adam West.

Eco-friendly ideas for Earth Day

ince Earth Day is a time to be kinder to the planet, here are 11 painless suggestions to make our globe a better place. 1. Switch to reusable bags – insulated bags offer more choices. 2. Walk or bike to work if possible – a plus is that you’ll get some exercise. 3. Plant a garden – and water carefully.

4. Buy local goods – foods are fresher and you support nearby merchants/growers. 5. Unplug TVs and computers or use a special powerstrip that shuts down “phantom” power use. 6. Buy e-books and read online – cancel magazine subscriptions and go electronic. 7. Conserve water – shorter showers save money. 8. Buy secondhand goods – including clothing, furniture and appliances.

9. Save energy – dry clothes on a line or adjust your thermostat a few degrees. 10. Carry your own cup everywhere – it’ll lower the waste of disposable containers. 11. Use cloth diapers – it’s less trash in landfills. The first Earth Day was celebrated in 1970 as a reaction to a massive California oil spill witnessed by a Wisconsin senator, Gaylord Nelson. All Earth Days are April 22.

Columnist met unexpected notables in San Antonio

hope that readers of this column will forgive me for telling a personal story this week. When I attended the Texas State Historical Association convention in San Antonio early in March, I had some unusual encounters. Attending with me was Judy Carson, whose friendship goes back to TCU days as well as our both teaching in the same junior high school in Diamond Hill. We lost our husbands a month apart. I think Judy's son worried about the two of us on our own. (He didn't know how many conventions I've attended, mostly alone.) Anyway, her son Chris sent directions and maps so we wouldn't get lost and told us of restaurants where we “must” eat. On Thursday at noon we took a taxi to Mi Tierra restaurant. I was worried about getting a taxi after lunch because I had to be back at the TSHA booth in the book exhibits to sign copies of the newly-released paperback of my Arsenal of Defense. The restaurant called a taxi for us, and we sat out front to

wait. No taxi. A gentleman wearing a white apron, who obviously worked at Mi Tierra, said he would go in and tell them to call again. In a few minutes he came out. Still no taxi. “I'll be happy to take you back to your hotel,” he said. “Oh, no,” I said, “surely our taxi will be here soon.” He stood around talking to an elderly man with a hook for his right hand. Still no taxi. The man with the apron offered again to take us, and we agreed, but I asked, “Are you sure you won't get in trouble for leaving your job?” “I'm the boss,” he said. Along with the one-armed man, we climbed into a big, new SUV. Then we heard the driver's story. His name was Jorge (George) Cortez, and in 1941 Pete and Cruz Cortez opened a small cafe at San Antonio's already famous Mercado (Market). Since then it has expanded so much that Cortez owns an entire block, and the cafe is world

famous. It is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. George said that his family is descended from Hernando Cortez who conquered Mexico from 1519 to 1521. Obviously, the conquisPAGES FROM tador fathered WESTERN some children he was in HISTORY while the New World. George, of J’Nell L. Pate course, introduced us to the man with the steel right hand to whom he was giving a ride. The man was Jesse Trevino, an artist.

(which I looked up on the Internet later) is his 50 by 8 foot mural honoring Jose Antonio Navarro at the Casa Navarro State Historic Site. I also learned that the Bexar County Commissioner's Court recently honored Trevino with their highest accolade, the Hidalgo Award, for his service to the community as an artist. Two of his works are in the Smithsonian Art Museum's permanent collection in Washington, D. C. Trevino was born in Monterrey, Mexico and came to San Antonio in 1948. On a scholarship he studied art at the Art Student's League in New York, but while there he was drafted for the Vietnam war. A booby trap blasted his right arm. He had to teach himself to paint with his left hand. Folks in San Antonio currently have a goal to raise a million dollars for Trevino's latest project, a 140-foot veteran's memorial, a derrick-like object with enormous dog tags hanging down. It will be erected in Elmendorf Lake. After meeting two such distin-

At the Alamo gift shop Judy and I each purchased a little book, Sleuthing the Alamo written by Texan James Crisp, who teaches at North Carolina State University. We met Crisp the evening before at the Witte Museum and struck up mutual acquaintances. (He grew up in Henrietta, Texas.) Luckily, we found Crisp Friday evening at a reception before our TSHA dinner at the Menger Hotel, and he autographed our books. Oh, by the way, a former student of mine, Patricia Ritchie, who now teaches Texas History in the Keller ISD, won an education, best teacher award of $5,000 from TSHA.

The state responds to the Fort Hood shooting

Fort Hood soldier brought a civilian semiautomatic pistol to the sprawling military post 60 miles north of the Capitol city on April 2 and opened fire, killing three fellow service members and wounding 16 others before turning the .45-caliber weapon on himself. The suspect, Specialist Ivan Lopez, 34, died of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound reportedly after a female military police officer confronted him. Gov. Rick Perry, in a statement released the day of the shooting, said, “Today, Fort Hood was once again stricken by tragedy. As Texans, our first priority must be caring for the victims and their families. Fort Hood has proven its resilience before and will again. Texas will support those efforts in any way we can, with any resources necessary. The thoughts and prayers of all Texans are with everyone affected by this trag-

Few answers can be found in the days immediately after such a tragedy, but we pledge to as-

Movie Man

Wednesday, April 9, 2014

It’s shield vs. S.H.I.E.L.D. in Captain America 2 So far, so good for the recent spate of Marvel superhero movies. They are on a Pixar-esque run. Of course, even Pixar petered out (thank you Cars 2 [2011, Movie Man No. 934, a 4]). But it’s still clear sailing for Marvel – the second Captain America movie is pretty good. About the film For decades, Marvel and DC, were the Ford/Chevy rivals of the comic book business. Devotees of each defended their preferences fervently. Now, DC, despite the success of the Batman series and the most recent Superman, Man of Steel (2012, MM #1040, 7), is anxious to enjoy some Avengers (2012, MM #981, 8) stratosphere success with their corral of superheroes. And those gears are in motion. On the horizon is a meeting/teaming of Superman and Batman set for May 6, 2016 (mark your calendars now). The Man of Steel Superman is back in Henry Cavill as well as the same Lois Lane (Amy Adams), Perry White (Laurence Fishburne) and Martha Kent (Diane Lane). The updating comes with Batman (the hubbub over Ben Affl eck donning the cape has fi nally settled down) and a new Alfred (Jeremy Irons). Not to mention DC is beginning to drop in some lower tier heroes, taking a page from Marvel’s movie universe book. The still-untitled DC movie also stars Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot). Other rumors are rampant: Denzel Washington as Green Lantern, Nightwing (Batman’s sidekick), and the villain Doomsday. The Marvel plan began showcasing less popular characters to great success. After introducing the DC crew above (and certainly some surprises to boot), next will come DC’s

version of the Avengers super team, The Justice League of America. Like the Avengers, the JLA was a squad that regularly changed. That movie is penPlucky Bucky ciled in for 2017.

And it happens a third time. Cap deduces that all these fellows wish him ill. After a comic book-appropriate wisecrack, there’s a mighty fi ght in the close quarters of a glass elevator. It’s perfectly done. What doesn’t work (spoiler) The fi ght scenes go on too long. They all begin great but go on and on. Since the movie is a heinie-testing 136 minutes, a few cuts would’ve been nice. The plot gets bogged down and is pretty ridiculous in tying the master conspiracy together. Black Widow’s Rogue trick near the conclusion seemed like a cheat, somehow. The Marvel effort of introducing so many characters gets pushed a little here with the cameo appearance of Agent 13 (Emily VanCamp); she’ll likely be Cap’s future girlfriend in the third movie. But it’s getting hard to keep track of the heroes these days.

as Marvel’s other comics and is actually more of an Old School espionage thriller than a superhero fantasy. Next up Rio 2, looks like more of the same which is not a good thing (2011, MM #926, 4) and Draft Day looks like a snorer. So the Movie Man will likely decide between the surprise success of God’s Not Dead (Christians speaking with their pocketbooks) and The Grand Budapest Hotel (another bigger than expected hit). He’s really treading water until Spider-Man 2 on May 2.

Finding the mind-body connection Local pharmacist looks to adaptive yoga to help with healthcare By Natalie GeNtry Veronica Riera-Gilley, a licensed pharmacist, is passionate about sharing the tools of yoga to help people develop their mind body connection. “It is an important part of self-care and preventative medicine.” Riera-Gilley said. While the Springtown resident’s search for a way to help people strengthen their mental and physical health has been a purposeful mission, she began her yoga journey on a whim. “My grandfather passed away in 2008 before I began my journey into [the organization] Yoga and Mind-Body Medicine,” Riera-Gilley said. “He was confined to a bed the last two years of his life, and he wanted to reconnect with his body. “He asked me for ways to help, and I had nothing to offer him because there was no pathology and nothing that had a pharmaceutical fix,” she continued. Soon after that, she found what she was looking for. “I took a class at a gym and fell in love with it because I got so much relief in my spine after just once class,” Riera-Gilley said. “I had to learn more, so I started taking as many classes as possible and attending yoga conferences. “I discovered there was so much more to yoga than heated rooms and flowing postures,” she continued. “I never dreamed I’d be teaching yoga

patients in the community,” she said. “The mindfulness practices I learned from yoga gave me tools for helping patients realize how much influence they have over their conditions when they listen to their bodies.” Riera-Gilley said that human bodies are very intelligent, but people are disconnected from them and often cover up sympEast meets West While many people may toms of a problem with a pill before taking think that Yoga time to explore for Disabilities what the body and work as is trying to tell a pharmacist them. contradict one “I began to another with realize that the concepts of both patients Western mediand practitiocine contrastners have faith ing with Eastin the magic ern healing, bullet system Riera-Gilley where there is doesn’t see it a pill for evthat way. ery symptom, “Learning Riera-Gilley body awaresaid. “Because ness helped me of this, we ofrecover from Veronica riera-Gilley ten have a pasa serious low Licensed Pharmacist sive approach back injury to our health, without narcotand feel helpics or surgery,” Riera-Gilley said. “I had a rap- less when medications don’t pelling accident and fractured provide the results we expect.” several vertebrae. “Eventually, my personal Get to know your body Teaching body awareness practice of yoga was influencing how I counseled patients with the breath has become a in my professional pharmacy key part of Riera-Gilley’s papractice about lifestyle modi- tient counseling.

take charge of their health because it gives them a reference for the feedback their body gives them and it can reinforce their healthy habits. “For example, body awareness helps patients to eat better because they start to recognize how different foods make them feel,” Riera-Gilley said. “This in turn results in weight loss, stress reduction, improved mood, reductions in blood pressure and blood sugar, increased immunity, and decreased pain. “All of these benefits can add up to significantly reduced doses or eliminate the need for certain medications,” she continued. Riera-Gilley learned how to share the mind-body connection with everyone, and moved past the mindset that yoga must look a certain way and that patients’ health goals should match those mapped out by textbook standards. Mind-Body Solutions has made the benefits of yoga available to anyone, not just those with a strong flexible body, she said. “I wish that I had had this training before my grandfather passed away,” She said. “I didn’t know how to help him, especially with yoga, since he had no mobility. “I have learned how to be creative and see past the shape of a pose,” Riera-Gilley said. “I have learned not to dismiss

Mrs. Kuehner gave a statement, which was corroborated by a polygraph examination, describing very serious abuse and fearing for her life the day of the shooting. In deciding the case, it was appropriate for the grand jury to review all the

The committee is charged with examining the status of seawater and groundwater desalination in Texas, as well as ways that expanded use of desalinated water could help meet Texas’ needs. “Water continues to remain a top priority for Texas and for our community,” King said. “Looking at alternative solutions to address our future water needs is critical for ensuring a strong Texas economy.” During the 83rd Legislative Session, HB 4 was passed and signed into law by Governor Rick Perry.

“I now celebrate what patients can do rather than focus on what they can’t do,” she said. “This shift has greatly improved my patient counseling skills in the pharmacy. “I have more to offer patients now that I am not just focused on finding the right pill for the right symptom,” Riera-Gilley said. She said she has big plans to help bolster this concept within the healthcare community by creating a scholarship. “I am in the early stages of generating awareness about resources that offer to train healthcare professionals and yoga teachers,” Riera-Gilley said. “I would like to see the adaptive community in North Texas grow and I would like to see it benefit patients at the point of care with cooperation between yoga teachers and healthcare professionals in hospitals and outpatient clinics.” To reach this goal Riera-Gilley has chosen to participate in this year’s Kiss My Asana Yogathon to raise both funds and awareness for the organization. and was released from the Parker County Jail 30 minutes later.
