Azle’s future

Spring Football at Azle High School

Priorities discussed at annual workshop BY CARLA NOAH STUTSMAN From economic development to infrastructure and drainage and from facilities to staffing and beautification, members of the Azle city council and key city staff brainstormed about priorities and possibilities during a workshop Saturday, April 25. For more than six hours, city leaders hashed out details, set goals and priorities and learned about the challenges associated with paying for everything that needs to be done. Following a presentation by City Manager Craig Lemin, council members and staff identified their own priorities for the city, which were then calculated using a point system to come up with the following consensus: 1. expand tax base via economic deDevon Dorris, Hornet head football coach, watches a play during spring drills.

West hand-crafts leather, silver

Troy West makes one-of-a-kind saddles.

Azle’s Troy West has received high kudos for his leather skills. He won Will Rogers Cowboy Award for Saddlemaker from the Academy of Western Artists. He received his award before a full house at the 19th Annual Academy of Western Artists Will Rogers Awards, held in the Grand Ballroom at the Sheraton Hotel in Irving in March. West, who lives and works in Azle, has been building custom saddles for more than 35 years. The craftsman says he loves to create unique, one-of-a-kind pieces, whether it be a saddle or a hand-crafted silver buckle. West says his main priority is to build saddles that fit the horse and are comfortable to the rider. He achieves this by hand-crafting each saddle tree from start to finish in his saddle shop in Azle. After a perfect fit in the tree, he strives for the highest standards of beauty through quality materials and workmanship. In addition to making his own saddle trees, Troy also creates all his own custom silver for each saddle as well as oneof-a-kind buckle sets. Troy West Saddles can be found online at www.troywestsaddles.com.

This Week in Azle History

This yearling alligator was spotted Monday, May 4, near the West Fork of the Trinity River between the Eagle Mountain Lake spillway and Lake Worth. A TRWD spokesperson said the critters are native to that area but stressed that there have been no sightings in Eagle Mountain Lake.

At Silver Creek Elementary, P.E. teacher Trey Shearer led students, teachers, parents, and community members through a 5K (3.1 miles) and 1-mile fun run around the campus. Over 150 runners participated. First place trophies were awarded to the fastest kids: Gavin Dean and Madison Yunger in the 5K and Braden Decoopman and Autumn Dan-

Coach Shearer said, “It was an awesome event at the best school in the state! It’s an honor and blessing to be the coach here at Silver Creek and to be part of the Azle ISD.” He added that he hopes the 5K and fun run will become part of the field day annually –

Azle News

Open Letter to the Good Citizens of Azle Dear Friends and Neighbors, Please don’t be deceived by a Dallas businessman’s false attacks on our local water board. As a resident of Azle and a local Tarrant Regional Water District board member, I am asking for your help to stop a ruthless Dallas businessman (Monty Bennett) from taking control of our Tarrant Regional Water District. Bennett is spending millions to fund phony lawsuits against TRWD and to fund FALSE attacks on two of our outstanding local board members (Marty Leonard and Jim Lane) who are up for election this May. This Dallas businessman’s agenda is clear— he is trying to take over control of our local water supply with his own puppet slate of water board candidates; and he wants to stop a critical TRWD water pipeline project from East Texas. (This project is needed to put more water into Eagle Mountain Lake and other local lakes so our region’s water supply can keep up with local population growth.) Recently too, the press has pulled the curtain back on Bennett’s agenda by reporting that one of his Dallas financed puppet candidates (Mary Kelleher, who was elected in 2013) is now under investigation by the Texas Ethics Commission for not reporting an estimated half million dollars in secret funding from Bennett. Bennett has also been recently investigated by the Tarrant County DA for taking Kelleher on an all expense paid out-of-state trip with him to New Orleans. Additionally, Kelleher is the only board member in TRWD history to be PUBLICLY-CENSURED. Kelleher was censured last year by the TRWD Board for making false statements before the Fort Worth City Council. The truth is TRWD’s elected board has been a strong steward of taxpayer money. Our water district’s 2-penny tax rate has been flat for over 15 years! Furthermore, thanks to TRWD’s nationally acclaimed water conservation and wetlands water recycling projects, we have saved local taxpayers millions of dollars — all while helping our local communities have water during the current sustained drought. Also, thanks to TRWD’s leadership (under Jim Lane and Marty Leonard) and with the help of County Commissioner JD Johnson, State Rep. Charlie Geren, and others— TRWD stopped another Dallas developer from commercializing pristine undeveloped land around Eagle Mountain Lake. This land is now dedicated as Eagle Mountain Park and it, as well as our Trinity Trails system, is cared for by TRWD in partnership with nonprofit groups. So, the next time you get a FALSE attack mailer by one of Dallas businessman Monty Bennett’s puppet slate of candidates, or receive one of their ugly and misleading robo-phone calls— please join with me, and your other Azle neighbors listed below in making sure this Dallas businessman does not succeed. Instead, please vote, and encourage your family and friends, to vote for keeping control of our local water supply in local hands by re-electing Marty Leonard and Jim Lane to the Tarrant Regional Water District Board in the upcoming May 9th election. Sincerely, Jack Stevens

P.S. The TRWD election is a plurality election. In this year’s election, two TRWD Board positions are up for election and voters will have the opportunity to vote for two of the five TRWD candidates on the ballot. Please note Dallas businessman Monty Bennett and his associates recruited the first 3 candidates on the ballot and that Marty Leonard is #4 on the ballot and Jim Lane is #5 on the ballot.

In fact, Lemin told the council every single item on the list is a priority. Economic development Economic Development Director Caitlin Glenn told council members she wants to create as much “buzz” as possible about the city – and she wasn’t necessarily referencing the Azle Hornets. “It’s getting people talking about Azle – whether that’s in person or on social media,” Glenn said. “Our citizens should be our biggest promoters.” She’s also looking for every speaking engagement she can get to help spread the word about Azle. Glenn is spearheading the city’s co-sponsorship of the upcoming Azle Main Street Arts Festival and Tour along with the Azle Area Chamber of Commerce. “The Arts Festival begins June 5 – the same evening as the first Music in the Park event,” Glenn said. “We’re hoping to co-promote the two events.” She also addressed the lack of retail space in Azle, where just

The most recent true-up is a bill for $126,956, which is due Budget and finance in May. Council and staff discussed Explaining that TRWD’s

charges are not based on the amount of water the city uses, but on the amount of water TRWD budgets the city to use. “Basically we’re not selling enough water – but it’s because we’re following the water restrictions imposed by TRWD,” Lemin told the council. “Our water revenue dropped 25 percent, and the true-up charge reflects that. “Up until the housing bubble, the utility fund was our solid foundation, but now it’s a challenge,” Lemin added. Lemin said he may propose the city hire a rate specialist to analyze water rates in the near future. The kind of calculation necessary for that task is beyond what city staff is capable of, he said. In the golf course fund, revenue is down about 3.1 percent from last year, largely attributable to a 15.3 percent drop in annual pass sales.

2015-16 budget As always, preparing a budget presents challenges, and at the top of the list are salaries and benefits for city employees. It’s been a few years since those employees received both a “step” raise and a cost-ofliving adjustment or “COLA.” In two of those recent years, employees received a one-time payment in lieu of a raise – similar to a bonus. The idea behind the one-time payment is to let employees know they are appreciated even when the budget cannot sustain an increase that continues year after year. In fiscal 2013-14 and again in 2014-15, employees did receive a step increase, but no

Photo by Carla Noah Stutsman Capital improvements Lemin provided some history about capital improvements the city has accomplished in the recent past and gave some estimates for projects coming up. 1. Parks The city has invested $1,125,093 in its parks, including the construction of Central Park. The city’s parks board recently completed its Five-Year Master Plan, which included improvements to Ash Creek Park, Central Park, Dusk Park, Shady Grove Park, and Melanie Park at an estimated total cost of $1,160,000. A splash pad proposed for Central Park is estimated to cost $170,000; Lemin recommended paying for that project out of the city’s fund balance if council decides to move forward with it. 2. Streets Since 2002, the city has 28 new subdivision streets totaling 4.71 miles. The Denver Trail extension and bridge project was completed at a cost of $4,992,066 – Tarrant County covered $2.2 million. With funds generated by bonds and the city’s street maintenance sales tax, 61 streets have been reclaimed and 22 streets were overlaid for a total of 25.1 miles of improved city street at a cost of $4,274,588. In all, 30.41 miles of streets in Azle have been constructed, reclaimed, or overlaid at a total cost of $9,266,654. That number excludes the cost of new subdivision streets, which are funded by the subdivision developer. That leaves 42 streets totaling 10.8 miles that still need to be reclaimed or overlaid, Lemin said. The estimated cost to complete all of them at today’s prices is about $2.8 million. 3. Utilities The city has completed 19 capital projects to its utility system since 2003. At a total cost of $23,133,726, increased water and wastewater treatment capacities provided by those projects are expected to meet the needs of the city for the next 20 years. Utility projects that need to be done include the replacement of existing cast iron water lines at an estimated cost of $1.2 million; upgrade water meters to an automated system to eliminate 640 staff hours each month for manual meter reading at an estimated cost of $1.1 million; and purchase and install a raw water pump backup system at an estimated cost of $720,000. 4. Drainage Since 2008, 14 drainage projects, including seven original “hot spots,” have been completed, Lemin informed the council. Twelve projects were funded with Stormwater funds including $525,000 in sevenyear tax notes for a total cost of $1,634,993. Two projects were funded with Community Development Block Grant funds totaling $331,052. The total cost for those drainage projects, including the “hot spot” design was $1,952,626. Lemin provided council with a list of 22 locations within the city that still experience drainage problems, especially in heavy rains. 5. Facilities

The city’s new fire station at 900 Lakeview Drive was completed in December 2012 at a total cost of $4,286,857; the animal shelter was expanded for $712,829. Looking ahead, city officials hope to begin construction on a new 16,000 square foot city hall sometime during the 2016-17 fiscal year. The estimated cost for such a facility is $3.9 million. Construction on a 14,000 square foot police station estimated to cost $4.2 million could begin sometime in 2018. Summary The total cost of capital improvement projects the city hopes to address in the foreseeable future is $14.98 million. However, cost estimates for drainage projects are not yet available. Compare that with the $40,477,785 invested into the city’s parks, streets, utilities, drainage and facilities in the past 15 or so years and it looks like the city has crested the hilltop.

The Choice is Clear! 4

YES

The incumbents are content to transact business behind closed doors. Craig and Michele will demand transparency and a full public accounting of all financial transactions and budgets online.

YES

The incumbents use the board to prop up their friends, purchasing land at nearly twice its appraised value, costing taxpayers millions. Craig and Michele will put a stop to cronyism.

YES

Currently the TRWD spends more of their discretionary fund on economic development than on providing water. Craig and Michele believe in returning the focus to providing water.

Breastraunts and chestraunts: God Bless America!

o, I won a $50 gift card to an eatery called Twin Peaks. I had no idea where a Twin Peaks was, but I’m not going to turn down $50 worth of food. Come to find out, Twin Peaks has nothing to do with the ground-breaking TV series of the early 1990’s. The clue that it was different came when it was referred to as a “breastraunt.” Twin Peaks is like a jacked up Hooters. They both serve dude-friendly food, drink, and, uh, in Twin Peaks’ case, offer “scenic views” – it’s not called Twin Peaks for nothing. The chain, which began in Dallas in 2005, calls itself a “sports lodge” and is packed with big screen TVs. They serve not only draft beer but food

made from scratch that is “endowed in generous portions.” There’s a reason Twin Peaks is referred to as a breastraunt. The waitresses are adorned in teeny outfits – halters and short-shorts with bare midriffs in between – and possess playful, “girl next door personalities.” You might be astonished to know that the Bride is not crazy about going to Twin Peaks. ME: It’s $50 worth of free food! BRIDE: It’s a breastraunt! ME: Free food! I’ll just eat, alternating my gaze between your beautiful brown eyes and “savory venison chili.” BRIDE: Uh-huh. In 2014, breastraunts were the biggest growing chains in the food industry.

And now here comes one for the ladies: Tallywackers, a Hooters/Twin Peaks aimed to entice female diners. (If you are a country person, you know what a ON YOUR t a l l y w a c k e r MARK is.) Called a Mark K. Campbell “guy candy eatery,” the restaurant will open a Dallas site soon – they’re shooting for Mothers’ Day. ME: Mom, where to you want to go for your Mother’s Day meal? HER: Is that Tallywackers open?

ME: Mom! BRIDE: Not so funny now, huh? The owner of Tallywackers said he plans on having men of all kinds of physiques as waiters because ladies like different kinds of male eye candy. (Guys are much easier to cater to as Hooters and Twin Peaks figured out quickly.) Tallywacker waiters won’t be shirtless because of health regulations, but they’ll be wearing tight red t-shirts and snazzy underpants at the “chestraunt.” At both places, expect heaving bosoms and fit young ‘uns bringing you your cheese sticks and sweet tea. Naturally, plenty of folks will see this sort of dining option as the continuing decline of the Western world. I don’t know if a preacher has ever said the word “tallywacker” from the pulpit, but I can imagine the titters

from the congregation if one should. I’m pretty sure a suggestion for a church small group to meet at Twin Peaks or Tallywackers would not be well received. Breastraunts and chestraunts also throw conservatives into a conundrum. While abhorring the concept, won’t the “free market sort everything out?” How ‘bout our America?! What a country! I have solved my problem. I’m headed to Twin Peaks with a giant $50 to-go order. I’ll wear my tight red shirt just like the Tallywackers dudes – the only difference is that all my shirts are tight these days. Mark K. Campbell is the News editor and has only been to a Hooter’s once – back when he was a firefighter, of course.

The smooth path is not always the best one

just returned from an amazing mission trip to Ukraine with the Singing Men of Texas. I don’t just toss that word “amazing” out lightly. We took a team of 170 people from across the state of Texas and did a concert/preaching tour across western Ukraine. Between April 22-30, we sang 12 concerts in eight cities to a combined audience of over 14,000 and saw over 7,700 registered decisions for Christ. Yeah, that kind of amazing. If you’ve read my column for any length of time, you know that I find inspiration everywhere. It doesn’t take much to get my “ponder-er” going. I’ll probably be sharing some reflec-

tions from this trip over the next several weeks – not in any kind of sequential series – just as I think of spiritual applications from some traveling observations. One of the things I noticed on this LIFE MATTERS trip is that some burdens Gerry Lewis are almost universal, at least in developed nations. One of the universal burdens is road

construction. One day we traveled three hours by bus to drive 80 miles to a concert. Did you catch that? Three hours to go 80 miles! I’m pretty sure this was the worst paved road I have ever seen. After the concert, we got back on the bus and made the return trip! Six hours on 160 miles of really bad road! Sounds like the beginnings of a Ukrainian Country Song by Blake Sheltonskov. In the city of Kiev, I found another section of road under construction. This one was a cobblestone street in front of the Cathedral of Saint Andrew. The cathedral was constructed from 1744-1767. I looked at the way the new cobblestones were laid out waiting for the

cement grouting process and thought, “Oh, my goodness! This little section is going to take forever. Wouldn’t it be better to just put down some asphalt pavement?” Then I found out the age of the street they were replacing. The previous cobblestones had only lasted 300 years! Can you imagine 300 year old asphalt? Holy potholes! Certainly it would be much more “efficient” to put down asphalt. It could probably be done in a day or two. But it’s hard to argue with the “effectiveness” of cobblestones. It might take longer. It might slow the driving speed a bit. But it also allows for a more deliberate and thoughtful pace, taking in the beauty of the trip, rather

than simply rushing to the destination. Efficiency that is not the servant of effectiveness is highly overrated. Sometimes God puts some speed bumps in the road to call us to greater focus and effectiveness. Our lives matter so much to God that the experience of the journey matters as much as the pace at which we move toward our destination. Corrie ten Boom said, “When God sends us on rocky paths, He gives us strong shoes.” Maybe that was His purpose in the first place.

Over 100 movies, TV shows made from Zane Grey books

n last week's column I wrote about Western novel writer Zane Grey. I mentioned that he sold three early books to the movies at $25,000 each. He sold many more for much more. This week I want to concentrate on his connection to the movies. Movies still were in their infancy in 1919. Producers with a small crew rented a warehouse and filmed a story. Zane Grey decided he could do that himself and make more money from a book. In 1919 he began Zane Grey Productions, but took in a partner named Ben H. Hampton who actually hired the crew, actors and did the filming. Grey visited sometimes during filming, but spent his time mostly in writing and fishing. After only three or four movies, Grey bought out Hampton and then sold the entire film company to a man named Jesse Lasky who knew a great deal about films. Lasky had produced the very first movie that was made in Hollywood, The Squaw Man. Eventually Lasky and his partners expanded

THE

into Paramount Pictures and enlarged a studio where Zane Grey had rented space when he made his own movies. Obviously, Grey had “connections,” as the expression goes, with the owners of the company. As a result, Paramount produced at least two films a year from a Zane Grey book. Sometimes they turned out five of his novels into Western movies in one year. The first ones were during the silent film days. Then after talkies came in, Paramount remade some of the same movies into the new technology. Gary Cooper starred in one of the first talkies. Other famous Western actors were Richard Allen and Randolph Scott, the latter starring in over 20 Zane Grey book-inspired movies. A story that Grey's biographer Frank Gruber learned while interviewing Randolph Scott proved interesting. In 1933 Paramount was remaking an earlier movie. An actress who starred in many Zane Grey movies was Gail Patrick, who played the mother of a little girl in a film entitled To the Last Man. In a party scene the little three-

year-old girl's pony was supposed to arrive, be slapped on its rump by the little girl, and then walk off the set. The actors rehearsed it that way. However, when the cameras did the actual take PAGES FROM of the scene, WESTERN things changed. The pony arHISTORY rived all right; J’Nell L. Pate the little girl slapped it. The pony, though, raised up its rear and began kicking the tables, knocking dishes all over the place. The camera kept rolling. The girl, still in character, but ad-libbing, told the pony it was behaving badly and ordered it to leave the party! When the scene ended, everyone applauded. The director, Henry Ha-

thaway, later very famous, saw the filmed scene the next day and told the executives about the little girl and suggested they sign her to a long-term contract. She had the makings of a real child star. The movie executives didn't listen, however. Not long after that Twentieth Century Fox studio signed the girl to a long-term contract. Of course, has everyone guessed? She was Shirley Temple. To make it even worse for Paramount, it needed her back for another role and had to pay Twentieth Century Fox $30,000 to borrow her – a lot of money then. Shirley Temple earned millions of dollars for Twentieth Century Fox in the coming years. Other actors besides the ones mentioned who played in movies made from Zane Grey's books were: Richard Dix, Wallace Beery, Harry Carey, William Powell, Jack Holt, Jack LaRue, Billie Dove, Fay Wray, Lili Damita, Jean Arthur, Buster Crabbe, Robert Young and Warner Baxter. The later director of the classic Gone With the Wind, Victor Fleming, directed several

of the earlier Zane Grey Westerns at Paramount. Henry Hathaway directed a dozen Zane Grey movies at the same studio. Grey didn't get himself too involved in the production of movies made from his books, but during the 1920s he added a clause to the contract that it had to be filmed in the actual locations he described in his novels. Actually, Grey's wife, Lina (Dolly), negotiated his contracts and even had his power of attorney to sign them. She was an excellent businesswoman. Concerning Grey's movie and television success, 112 films, two television episodes and a TV series were based, some loosely, on Grey's work. The TV series, Zane Grey's Western Theatre ran for five years with 145 episodes. I'm sure I saw a lot of them many years ago and didn't realize they came from Zane Grey books. Retired history professor J’Nell Pate of Azle has authored several books, many of which are on sale in the lobby of the Azle News.

House, Senate produce disparate versions of tax relief

districts. Straus said the House “looks forward to a productive conversation with the Senate about how best to deliver results on this issue and the many others that matter to our economy and to Texas families.” Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, on the other hand, praised the Senate’s preliminary approval of Senate Bill 1760 authored by Freshman Sen. Brandon Creighton, R-Conroe. “Sen. Creighton’s bill gives homeowners the ability to hold local government accountable for the demands they place on taxpayers,” Patrick said, and called the measure “another step in an overall plan to reduce property taxes for homeowners and businesses.” SB 1760 would, if adopted by the House in its present form: • Remove the requirement that taxpayers due a refund have to apply for it; • Increase the interest rate on refunds due to taxpayers to 9.5

egislation approved by the House and Senate last week reveal widely differing views on how to bring about tax relief to Texans in fiscal years 2016 and 2017. Speaker Joe Straus lauded the preliminary approval of House Bill 31, legislation to reduce the state sales tax from 6.25 percent to 5.95 percent, resulting in a $2.66 billion revenue decrease, and House Bill 32, legislation cutting the franchise tax paid by many businesses by 25 percent and resulting in a statewide revenue decrease of $2.56 billion. Both bills were written by House Ways and Means Chair Dennis Bonnen, R-Angleton, along with several members credited as coauthors. The bills, in combination, are intended to provide a form of tax relief that would be insulated from the powers of local taxing entities and appraisal

Even more gut-wrenching: Further investigation has now revealed that Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake made the statement to Police Commissioner Anthony Batts – and I'll quote her in verbatim – “This is only property, let them loot.” Overshadowing that discomfiture by the mayor, scores of police officers were seriously injured by projectiles thrown

by these malcontents already knowing that they had free reign to harm the officers. Just five days later, State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby – without even a grand jury hearing – arbitrarily charged all six police officers with felony homicide with high bail. During the news conference, Ms. Mosby, with her rhetoric and gross improprieties with pernicious

political Democratic back dealings, sounded more like a modern day political activist – aka Joan Baez – than a prosecuting attorney. The new paradigm in America now is: Lady Justice has taken off her blindfold for a hiatus until the next election, the insane have taken over the insane asylum, and the new modern Baltimore police shield

will have Freddie Gray's face emblazoned in the middle of it. And to further put a shiv into America's righteous folks’ ribs, the new political correctness for the thugs who want to plant you graveyard dead, is no longer “thugs” but “poor misguided youths.” Joseph Bryan Fort Worth

More disconcerting in this national news item is that it has now been confirmed that the mayor had ordered the police and fire commissioners to have their officers to “stand down.”

While the final price tag is significantly more than the $400,000 original estimate, the scope of work has also changed significantly, Smith said. “That was before we added the restroom renovation and drainage projects,” he said. Smith – monitoring a weather forecast that predicts rain for a full week – said construction on the new competition gym and career and technology education center at Azle High School

are in full swing, but have obviously experienced delays due to recent rainfall. Currently, Buford-Thompson Company projects a completion date of Aug. 21 for the CTE Center; Sept. 15 is when the gym should be completed. Those dates were given to Smith almost two weeks ago – before the latest weather forecast. “They had hoped to be in the dry by now, and they’re not, but they’re not far from it” Smith said. “Once they’re dried in, they have a plan to make up time.” In the big scheme of things, the current CTE Center completion date is only six days behind its original completion date of Aug. 15, Smith reminded.

Small savings add up! Betty Horton is the local representative for U.S. Health Advisors and is available to come to you anywhere to discuss your insurance needs.

Even though that dollar or two worth of cost savings may seem small today, little economies over time can add up to significant amounts of money. Whether you are saving for a dream vacation, that set of golf clubs or your child’s college education, there are lots of easy, painfree substitutions to help you hang on to more of your hard-earned cash. A great general guideline is to stick to the 30-Day Rule. If you get the feeling that a purchase might not be necessary, put it on a list and wait 30 days. If you still want it, buy it. You’ll be surprised at what you don’t end up buying. Mealtime offers plenty of opportunities to be creative on a budget. Pick up your pizza instead of getting it delivered and save delivery fee and tip. Making dinner can be an adventure – instead of going out to eat, challenge your family to make something out of what’s already in the pantry. When you do go out to eat, drink water instead of ordering that iced tea or soda. At an average of $2.50 a glass, you’ll save $100 (plus additional tax and tip) for every 40 times dining out just by making that healthy switch. Bring your own coffee and filtered water to the office. Not buying a $1.29 bottle of water a day means you can save almost $500 a year on water alone. Many low-cost entertainment choices exist. Changing cable to Netflix can save you a thousand or more dollars per year. Going to the movies before 5:00 pm. allows you to take advantage of discounted matinee prices. Look for free attractions in your city – many museums are free or offer free days, seek out

city-sponsored events in parks and rec centers, or find offers for historical neighborhood walks. Get to know which retailers offer food and beverage samplings and tastings. Shopping is key when it comes to controlling spending. Take advantage of post-holiday sales, i.e., buy chocolate candy the day after Valentine’s Day or Halloween. Unless your car specifically requires high octane gas, choose regular gas – your engine will perform just as well and you’ll save at the pumps. (Make sure and check your manufacturer’s specs before trying this one.) Repair shoes and clothing instead of replacing them. Buy non-perishable staples in bulk, on sale. Make a grocery list and stick to it. Use a basket instead of a cart and try to shop as fast as you can to avoid being distracted by unplanned purchases. Above all, don’t buy the tempting stuff hanging near the counter; they don’t save that space for the bargain items. Take care of the basics. Many financial institutions will allow you to preschedule bill payment online. Pay bills on time and keep track of your checking account to avoid late fees and NSF charges. Cancel that gym membership you’re not using. Turn off lights when you are not home and unplug appliances that use power, even when turned off. Review your home, auto and health insurance policies to make sure you are getting the right coverage at the right price. Make saving money a game, a contest with a wonderful prize that you alone can choose. Small savings really do add up!

Softball ladies roll; Area round next up by mark k. campbell Home runs and a perfect game spelled doom for Fort Worth Carter-Riverside in bidistrict play. Azle (25-2) scored early and often, run-ruling the Lady Eagles in two playoff games. At the AHS diamond April 30, Sarah Brown bashed a home run in the third inning and slugger Samantha Bradley cranked the first of her two dingers in the series. The Lady Hornets won the opener 10-0. The next day, in Fort Worth, Azle won the series when Makenzi Harris pitched a perfect game while striking out 10 hitters. The result was another 10-0 victory.

Baseball season over for Hornets The Azle High School baseball team got some solid pitching this season. But the bats never really came around and the Hornets missed the postseason. Coach Anthony Barron said, “Our pitching was outstanding this season. It’s tough getting beat by just one or a couple of runs.” That was the case several times in District 5-5A play – including a 2-0 loss at Boswell April 30. While Tommy Kay was strong on the mound – again – and so was reliever Landon Pyle, the AHS bats faltered, collecting just two hits over seven innings. Tyler Albers doubled and Trey Ramos singled for Azle’s only safeties.

Both Pioneer runs were unearned, thanks to five Hornet errors. In the season finale at home on Senior Night, the defense sputtered; AHS booted eight balls. That allowed Saginaw to score early and build a 7-0 lead after four innings en route to a 7-1 victory. Azle’s only run came in the bottom of the fifth when Kay singled home Donny Nay. AHS collected just four hits; the other two came from Albers – one a double. Barron said his team gave it all they had. “I am really proud of the way our guys battled every game,” he noted. “We made a run at the playoffs, but just came up a little short.”

Bradley pitched that first game and ran her record this year to 11-1. She was never retired in the series, going 4-for-4 with 2 walks, 5 RBI, and 4 runs scored. Bailee Carter was 4-for7 with 3 runs scored; Brown scored 4 times in the two games. Raelyn Temple also had 5 RBI, 4 in the first game where she doubled twice. Azle retained its No. 4 ranking in the Texas Girls Coaches Association’s 5A poll. Next up for AHS is Burleson Centennial; the Spartans spanked Fort Worth North Side 19-1. The teams will play at Kennedale High School.

Track year over for Azle The 2015 track season officially ended in Lubbock May 1-2. Katy O’Dell and Brooke Smith turned in top performances, both bronzes. O’Dell threw the discus 115 feet, 3 inches and Smith pole vaulted 10-6. Ayden Thompson reached the finals in the 300 hurdles at the Texas Tech track; she finished eighth in 15.17 seconds. Kaylie Peters took eighth in high jump, clearing 5-2. Hornet hurdlers Conrad Reinhard and Trey Ramos missed the finals in their 110 and 300 distances, respectively. A top two finish was required to advance to state.

Avengers 2 not super-duper but still good fun As everyone on the planet expected, the Avengers sequel, Age of Ultron, dominated the world box office. In fact, that takeover began the week before when Ultron raked in millions overseas before its U.S. release. The question was: Would it be a record breaker? About the film Like Furious 7 (Movie Man No. 1134, a 5) enjoyed, no film is lined up for a while to stop the box office rampaging of Age of Ultron. The only release of any substance next week is Hot Pursuit (a ladies on the run comedy that looks been-there, done-that). On May 15, Mad Max: Fury Road arrives, but Ultron should still be raking it in (although both movies will do well that week). Things might get closer when Tomorrowland is released on May 22. (The trailer that showed before Ultron was excellent.) Still, Ultron could conceivably make it past San Andreas (May 29) and even Spy (June 5). For sure, the amazing Ultron will finally fall June 12 when Jurassic World hits screens. (It, too, has a fantastic new trailer.) The Movie Man’s pick as the No. 1 movie of the summer – along with every other human – Ultron will be well on its way past $1 billion by then, making it the 21st movie to achieve that high cotton. It will likely end up third all time, passing the first Avengers (2012, MM #581, 8) which is currently perched there with $1,518.6 billion. However, Ultron will really have to gear up to catch No. 2 – Titanic (1997, MM #212, 8) at $2,186.8 billion – and the No. 1 biggest moneymaker ever, Avatar – (2009, MM #856, 7) at $2,788.0 billion. The plot (spoilers) The Avengers attack a fortress and snatch the powerful Loki’s Staff. Back in their headquarters, Tony Stark (Robert Downey,

Jr.) convinces Bruce Banner (Mark Ruffalo) to help him build a super-intelligent robot army that can keep the peace. But one unique robot, Ultron (voiced by James Spader), quickly subdues Stark’s personal cyber-assistant, Jarvis (voiced by Paul Bettany), and figures out that the best way to save the world is to get rid of all the humans. The Avengers assemble, but, thanks to two evil human experiments – twins Quicksilver (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) and Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen) – the heroes are quickly defeated. They regroup and have to hurry because Ultron is almost through with a rig that will eradicate humanity. Getting help from Vision – who possesses Jarvis-like abilities times a thousand – a mighty battle takes place with the Avengers and some returning super-friends slugging it out. And one Avenger pays the ultimate price as the fight takes to the skies. What works Thankfully, Ultron keeps the same good humor that the original had. While DC loves their dark superheroes, these Marvel guys keep it light. There are lots of funny one-

liners and everybody gets to fire them off, often in the heat of battle. Especially witty is how Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner), in a discussion with a hesitant, nowfriendly Scarlet Witch during a battle, explains that, yes, he’s on the Avengers even though he only has a bow and arrow – pretty dinky compared to guys who can fly, sling mighty hammers, and turn big, green, and invincible. But Renner still fights. There’s much more Hawkeye this time, and that’s a good thing. Even a flirtation between Banner and Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) is tolerable and cute. Downey remains perfect as

Iron Man and Chris Hemsworth’s Thor look right (even if he’s hard to understand at times.) The fight scenes are many and sometimes too chaotic, but director Josh Whedon knows to cut to the wisecracks when it gets too dizzying. Best scene Sitting around and celebrating after recovering Loki’s Staff, the macho men eye Thor’s hammer. They say that the Norse god being the only

one who can lift the hammer must be some kind of trick. Every male Avenger takes a shot at budging Mjolnir but none can. Later, however, there’s a giant payoff on that scene that provides the best laugh in the film.

The rating Ultron is a solid 7. There’s just the usual cartoony violence that becomes numbing after a while. Summing up This second Avengers is down a notch from the first one, but is still fun enough to seek out. Certainly the third (and fourth) one – Infinity War, Part I and II – will be just as highly anticipated as Ultron was when I arrives May 4, 2018 and II May 3, 2019.

What doesn’t work The assault during the beginning of the movie contains some surprisingly poor computer generation. The Movie Man thought it was setting up a joke that a crappy video game had been created to honor the new Next up heroes. But, no, it was just weak Hot Pursuit. CG. (Thankfully, it gets better.) A chance for some great 3-D is really wasted. A couple of scenes are nice, but, without question, upgrading in theaters is not necessary.

It's that time of year again – much to the dismay of many BY MARK K. CAMPBELL Everybody doesn't like something. But lots of people don't like snakes. And, with spring here, the reptiles are joining us in celebrating the season. I was jogging on a dirt trail the other day listening to, coincidentally, Lynryd Skynyrd's “Gimme Three Steps” when I glanced to my right. There, stock-still, was a snake about three feet long. While I'm not mortified of snakes, some pundits believe that a full 33 percent of humanity has an “intense fear” of snakes while some have ophidiophobia, a true fear of snakes. Degrees of snake phobia vary; there are people out there who will never read this article because of the accompanying pictures. On my run, I just moseyed

over to the left, and the bull snake slithered off elsewhere to resume his hunt for a fat barditch rat. Texas snakes We have plenty of snakes in the Lone Star State. There are 68 species and 113 subspecies of the reptiles in Texas, according to Texas Parks and Wildlife. Almost all snakes are harmless to humans and eat a lot of pests. But some are not. Snakes will eat everything from a rabbit to an earthworm, from eggs to other snakes. There are four types of poisonous snakes in our state: rattlesnakes, cottonmouths, copperheads, and coral. Three to watch for… You aren't likely to see a corPLEASE SEE ALMOST, PAGE 2B.

You could spend many a year hunting down all the different kinds of snakes in Texas. Look up to see a rough green snake (above), which prefers to hide out in trees and bushes to catch food and avoid predators. The Texas rat snake (right) is one of the serpents you are most likely to see in this part of the state. They are formidable climbers and are sometimes found on the sides of brick walls.

Almost all snakes are good – but good luck convincing a large chunk of people that n ALMOST, FROM PAGE 1B.

al snake. And when you think you do, it's probably a non-venomous milk snake. Both snakes are banded with black, red, and yellow. Almost all Texans can recite the rhyme to tell the difference between the coral and milk snake: Red and yellow, Kill a fellow. Red and black, Venom lack. Still, for many people, they don't take the time to orate – they kill or flee. The milk snake's red band touches black. We have a ton of copperheads around here. Great at camouflage, they don't strike at prey but bite, so you have to almost stumble upon one to get fanged. That means watching where you sit when taking a break while hiking or being really careful when you flip over logs or boards. The cottonmouth is almost always around water. These black snakes are thick-bodied and can grow six feet long. When they feel threatened, they open their white “cotton” mouths wide and show their fangs. While cottonmouths eat frogs, fish, and small animals mostly, they can be aggressive if defending their home or when surprised. Also, a fact that can fuel nightmares: Cottonmouths can bite underwater. Anglers and swimmers need to keep an eye out for them. In Texas, there are many nonvenomous water snakes. There are some tricks to tell the difference between them and cottonmouths: • Regular water snakes have slender/flat heads while water moccasins have a thick/blocky head • Water snakes have slender bodies; moccasins are thick and

heavy • A water moccasin's neck is narrower than its head while a non-venomous water snake's neck is not distinct • The tail of a water snake is long and thin; a moccasin's is shorter and fat • The pupils of a water snake are round while a moccasin's are vertical (be careful if you get close enough to tell the difference) …then there’s rattlesnakes Rattlers get special attention in Texas. There are ten different species of them; only Arizona has more. If surprised, all rattlers will strike and deliver venom. Most are active at night, eating rats, rabbits, and vermin. Like other cold-blooded snakes, they like to lie in the sun in a place where they can also escape to when threatened – rock and wood piles, for instance. Because humans are huge, rattlers will try to get away when possible. But if trapped or stepped on, they'll strike. Almost every rattler bite – 99 percent – occurs below the knee and the great majority is on the ankles. Rattler fangs are long but they break easily. They seldom penetrate boots or even canvas tennis shoes. But if you get bitten, you need to get to the hospital pronto. Three species are especially more aggressive: the prairie, the Eastern timber (or canebrake), and the Western diamondback. The latter is responsible for most of the more serious cases of snakebite venom poisonings. All three snakes deliver venom that breaks down tissue and destroys blood; but the diamondback's venom is 33 percent more potent than other rattlers. Diamondbacks are the most numerous venomous snake in the western two-thirds of Texas.

Penrod said, “Simply put, look before you touch.” And, if you have a degree of ophidiophobia, keep in mind that if you go on a snake-killing mission, your fears might morph into musophobia – fear of mice and rats – when one of the rodents’ major eradicators is taken out of play. Most snakes are harmless and want nothing to do with humans. They are a vital part of our ecosystem. They should not be killed just because they're snakes. Besides, you'll never get them all and if word gets out you're the snake-killer...
