Volume 60, Edition 48, Monday, April 10, 2023 World Quantum Day is this Friday, April 14, 2023. Are you prepared? ***** With Texas Instrument’s $30 billion expansion, we’ve had a few citizens reach out to us about the history of the TI and Howe ISD boundary dispute from many years ago. We did some research and found an excellent article published by Lana Rideout in a May 13, 1982 Howe Enterprise edition about the very subject. We’re republishing it on page 10. ***** Let this serve as “Notice of General Election” for May 6, 2023. What a crazy period in the history of Howe, Texas. Also notice the “Notice of Possible Quorum” for Thursday night for the candidate forum. ***** Howe’s Howe? Howe Podcast 101 released their final edition last week on YouTube after 60 episodes. It may not have drawn the ratings of the final episode of MASH, or even the ATeam, however, Jake Roberts, Lucas Mitchell, and behind-the-scenes cohorts Noah Riley, Thomas Roberson, and rare special guest Mahlon Walker have made their way into the Howe podcast history books.

and how our tax rate is determined. I have been on the board for nine years and I am seeking another term to provide continuity and experience to the ever-changing landscape of public education.

In what school or district activities have you been involved?

What particular skills or experiences qualify you to serve as a school board member? Nine years of board experience, with five of those as board president, coupled with what we have accomplished in that time frame should more than qualify for serving again. A few of the things we have done: Acquired the land, passed a bond and built Summit Hill Elementary, instituted a district police department, implemented many new safety and security measures, renovated and updated the High School, Middle School and Intermediate School buildings, provided a new agriculture project center, renovated Bulldog Stadium including artificial turf on the playing field and resurfaced track, we provide an electronic device (iPad/ Laptop) for each student in the district, navigated a public health crisis which included a shutdown of school facilities, maintained high rankings in all state evaluated areas and kept a competitive staff compensation plan in place all while experiencing historic growth in our enrollment. How long have you lived in this school district?

There are very few school or district activities that I have not been involved in some form or fashion. I am not only a 1989 graduate of Howe High School, but I have had a child in the district continuously for the last 23 years. My wife, Paula, is also a graduate of Howe High School as are three of my four children with the fourth being a freshman, we have been involved in many extracurricular activities in our district for many years. What is your position on the ISD following CDC guidelines as an absolute standard for health decisions for students/employees? Guidelines are important and should be followed. I am not educated in public health and safety, therefore when seeking information I am glad that we have a public entity that provides information and ways to deal with those issues. How should the sensitive topics of sexual orientation and gender be handled? The evolution of our society makes these topics less sensitive each day, like it or not, these are matters that are addressed daily. As our student population grows so does the frequency of (Continued on page 3)

all issues, these should be dealt with in a manner that respects both the individual and the group as a whole. With strong and compassionate leaders in our district we strive to be considerate, sensitive and provide empathy and understanding while always keeping the best interest of the entire student population at the forefront. Where do you see Howe ISD in 10 years? Our district will continue to grow. We have reached historic enrollment levels and will continue to do so over the foreseeable future. While I see infrastructure retarding the short-term growth that will eventually be in place and more and more people will move to the area. While we have adequate space at the moment, several new school sites will eventually be required. What is a major strength of which Howe ISD can be proud? Howe ISD has strength in its leadership. The administration and teachers here are top notch. It has always been a priority to attract and retain high quality individuals to the district. We have been able to provide a competitive compensation plan for our area, adequate facilities and quality learning tools. This has been done while managing the tax rate and responsible spending of state allocated funds.

What is a major weakness that must be a priority for Howe ISD to address? While I am not aware of a “major weakness”, there are priorities. First is the aforementioned staff, retention and attraction of high quality teachers and administrators in a tight market should always be a priority. Second, the safety and security of students and staff should always be paramount. The expansion of the police force and their presence on each campus along with safety procedures and other safety elements will continue to be of the upmost importance. If elected, what would you hope would be key accomplishments of the board during your years of service? My hope would be that if elected, I would be able to continue serving the district with experience and leadership. I would also hope that we would be able to maintain a high financial rating with the state and continue to grade high in all academic areas. I would like to continue to be able to retain staff and keep the compensation level competitive. By keeping high quality staff, our students will continue to thrive, and we should be able to meet more of our long-term educational goals. As our area grows we will certainly face more challenges, and I hope that we will be able to face these challenges with both wisdom and a vision of excellence for our students.

how those decisions affect both my kids and others. I want to help to make those decisions to benefit kids and parents. What particular skills or experiences qualify you to serve as a school board member? I’ve worked in the insurance industry for 27 years, I handle serious auto accidents with fatalities to total fire losses, where a family can/would lose everything they own. Obviously, these losses are life changing events that take great communication, empathy, patience, and expertise. I feel those experiences along with normal life hiccups would allow me to provide excellent insight to our school board. How long have you lived in this school district? I’ve lived in Howe School District since May 2003. In what school or district activities have you been involved? I’ve been lucky enough for my kids to be involved in various activities (boys) from football, basketball, baseball and track along with band, theatre and FFA. Although I would not be an official member of these activities, my heart is a part of each and support both my kids and any others competing. I was a part of the committee that helped pass the bond for Summit Hill

Elementary and expansion of the current middle school. What is your position on the ISD following CDC guidelines as an absolute standard for health decisions for students/employees? I’m thrilled that Covid/Coronavirus pandemic is largely behind us. As noted earlier I have four kids, keeping all four on track with assignments/ schoolwork while also maintaining a full-time job and working from home was not an easy task for my wife and I! I hate that many students missed the needed in person interaction with teachers along with other activities including sports and UIL; however, the health of both students and employees is of the utmost importance. How should the sensitive topics of sexual orientation and gender be handled? I believe that these are things that should be taught and discussed at home, not necessarily in a school setting. As our “little” school grows changes might need to be made. Where do you see Howe ISD in 10 years? Howe ISD is growing now and with the completion of the new TI Plant, GlobiTech expansion along with planned communities in Howe, Sherman, and Dorchester our school system is going to grow exponentially.

Murphy (Continued from page 3)

With proper planning Howe will be a thriving healthy school system. What is a major strength of which Howe ISD can be proud? I see the major strength is support. I believe the community stands behind the school and administration and you see that in the seats of sporting events and all other activities. I believe the community is proud of the school and what the school stands for. I am certainly proud to be a Bulldog. What is a major weakness that must be a priority for Howe ISD to address?

Since I’m not currently a part of planning and implementation I would not dare throw mud at anyone for anything—for I’m bright enough to recognize that each decision must consider both the good and bad and not every decision will be good! If elected, what would you hope would be key accomplishments of the board during your years of service? Planning and implementation will be key to success. As previously noted, our school system will continue to grow. The need to study successful larger schools, plan, and work to implement the needed changes.

Tibbets (Continued from page 1)

will come over my next 3 year term and more.

How should the sensitive topics of sexual orientation and gender be handled?

What particular skills or experiences qualify you to serve as a school board member?

Sensitive topics of a personal nature, regardless of what they are, should be handled at home. I believe all students and staff should be treated with equal respect and opportunity.

I have the experience of serving as an HISD School Board Trustee for the last 2.5 years.

Where do you see Howe ISD in 10 years?

How long have you lived in this school district? I was born and raised in Howe and have lived here for 33 years. In what school or district activities have you been involved? In the six years that my children have been in school I have volunteered for different school events, most recently as a DJ for a middle school dance. I have also been a coach and Area Director for the local soccer association. What is your position on the ISD following CDC guidelines as an absolute standard for health decisions for students/employees? I believe that guidelines are just that and it is the responsibility of school leadership to review them and determine if they fit the district’s needs. If they do then they should be adopted and if not they should be reworked to find a way to best protect the health and safety of the students and staff.

In 10 years I see Howe ISD much the same, but a little larger and hopefully with soccer teams at both the middle and high school levels. What is a major strength of which Howe ISD can be proud? A major strength that Howe ISD has is the support and care it gives the students and staff. Also, we can be proud that our current school board works together for the betterment of the district and not to fulfill personal agendas. What is a major weakness that must be a priority for Howe ISD to address? A weakness for Howe to address is the same that many school districts face: getting kids caught up to where they would be had the COVID-19 shutdown not happened. I know that the district is working on this at this time and have faith that great strides will be made. (Continued on page 5)

If re-elected I would hope the board continues to be a guiding force in any changes the district faces and that we continue to work together to be the leaders this town elected us to be.

Carson Daniels signs to play baseball in Missouri

Carson Daniels answers questions from reporters from KTEN and KXII TV on Thursday afternoon at Howe High School. Staff photo. Carson Daniels, a 4-year starter in baseball and football was surrounded by friends and family on Thursday afternoon at Howe High School as he penned his letter of intent to play baseball at Westminster College in Missouri. “I’ve been dreaming about this since I was a kid. Just to be able to have this experience and be able to go somewhere that I believe fits me well is definitely a blessing,” said Daniels. Daniels said during is sophomore year he felt like the summer that he had led him to get interest from schools. After visiting the Westminster campus and getting a contact from their program, he felt like it was the best fit for him. “I love the history that they have up there,” said Daniels. “The facilities are fantastic and they have a young coaching staff that really loves the game. I feel like we're both ready to get after it.” Daniels praised his Howe coaches for

preparing him in his journey and says they have created a special bond. “Both coaches that I had and assistant coaches definitely have given me the right mindset to play this game and I can’t thank them enough for how much they have done for me.” Howe Athletic Director and Head Football Coach Lance Bryan said, “Every single one of these is really special because I know how hard these kids work. As soon as I came in, Carson was one of the guys that was definitely one of the hardest workers we had and he really put in a lot of time and effort to get to this point and it’s really nice to see him realize his dream and for it all come to fruition.” Daniels had pictures made with parents, grandparents, baseball teammates, friends, and coaches, and former coaches.

Lady Bulldogs fall to Bells, Gunter

It was “Youth Night” at the Howe Lady Bulldogs softball game Monday night. Photo by Alexa Brunner. The Howe Lady Bulldogs (10-15, 2-7) lost two games last week to two teams. Howe went toe-to-toe with Gunter on Friday, but came up short, 9-6. Howe lost to district-leading Bells on Tuesday, 11-2 on Howe Youth Softball night as the youngsters got to meet and greet the high school players. Howe freshman Riley McCollum was hit pretty hard on Tuesday for the first time this season as Bells had 10 singles and four extra base hits, and added four walks to get to their 11 runs. McCollum did strike out seven hitters, in her seven innings of work. The Snapp girls went 6-for-7 in the game as Kamry was 3-for-4 with a run scored and a triple while older sister Emery went 3-for-3. McCollum also had two hits. The Lady Panthers got a quick 3-0 lead in the first and led 8-2 after the third. On Friday, Howe again found themselves down 3-0 after the top of the first inning, but battled back and took the lead over Gunter in the bottom of the second. The Lady Bulldogs led 6-3 headed to the fourth inning, but couldn’t hold the lead as Gunter put up three unanswered runs in each of the seventh and eighth innings. McCollum rebounded nicely from Tuesday and pitched all eight innings, allowing four earned runs on eight hits. She walked three and struck out eight. Jocee McCullar led Howe with three hits, a run scored, and an RBI.

Both pitchers got bullpen help also as Carson Daniels pitched a shutout inning Tuesday and Landon Throm pitched a shutout inning Friday.

Howe-Sherman tax dispute settled Originally published by Lana Rideout in Vol. XVII, No. 46, May 13, 1982, of the Howe Enterprise.

ments to continue “in perpetuity” because of the tax revenue it would lose each year off the TI property.

School board trustees for Howe and Sherman have reached an agreement on a dispute over a 1965 contract between the two school districts concerning tax money from property owned by Texas Instruments.

Former Howe Supt. Arthur Boyle said last year the school district had sold $1,175,000 in bonds to cover student growth since 1965—growth caused in part, he said, by the proximity of the TI plant. He said Howe’s bonded indebtedness consumes about one-third of its local money.

Representatives of both school districts signed the agreement in 15th District Court Tuesday, May 4, after Howe and Sherman school officials called special meetings to accept the terms. The agreement calls for Sherman to pay Howe $20,000 a year for ten years, beginning in 1983. After 1992, Sherman will keep all taxes that it collects from the TI property. In 1965 Sherman ISD agreed to make payments to Howe ISD each year based on enrollment ratios from the two districts. In exchange, Howe allowed the Sherman ISD to annex property on Hwy. 75 into the Sherman district. However, the duration of the contract was not specified. When Texas Instruments first made plans to relocate in Grayson County, they understood the land they were interested in was in the Sherman school district and made tax negotiations with the Sherman school board. When it was learned that the land was actually in Howe school district, it was feared that TI would not come. In order to benefit Grayson County as a whole, the two boards made the agreement to allow Sherman to annex the land. In Feb. 1981, dispute began between the two schools when Sherman questioned the validity of the contract and Howe threatened to sue if the payments were discontinued. Sherman felt the payments should halt after Howe paid off its bond indebtedness which was $60,000 before TI announced its move to Sherman. But Howe was already considering adding about $500,000 because of the expected increase with the plant’s location near the town. Howe school officials wanted the pay-

Present Howe Supt. Dr. Howard Tucker said the Howe School Board was united in its agreement to accept the new contract although they were not entirely pleased (because of the eventual loss of this source of income). “Our lawyer (Earl Luna of Dallas) recommended it. He said the wording of the previous contract would make it hard to enforce. Accepting the new contract was the best thing to do for Howe.”

Job Title MAINTENANCE MECHANIC workintexas.com Posting ID 15892699 Location Denison Posting Close Date 06/13/23 Posting Link https:// bit.ly/3ZNXcI0 Description A local company is looking for a MAINTENANCE MECHANIC who will be responsible for maintaining and repairing all types of machinery used in the facility. This position requires a High School Diploma or Equivalent, and a minimum of 3 years of related experience.

Job Title COMMUNITY RESPONSE ADVOCATE workintexas.com Posting ID 15926582 Location Sherman Posting Close Date 07/05/23 Posting Link https:// bit.ly/3ZJIF05 Description A local company is looking for a COMMUNITY RESPONSE ADVOCATE who will provide direct services to survivors of family violence and/or sexual assault and their families. Provide a range of services to residential and non-residential clients. Must be able to exercise discretion and independent judgment. Must work flexible schedule due to on-call situations. This position requires 2 years at College or a Technical or Vocational School, and a minimum of 1 year of related experience.

Tucker added that the Howe board is putting the TI money into a building fund and hope to use only the interest in order to set up a perpetual fund which will cover the loss of the TI payments ten years from now. (He said this would depend on the economic situation and the desires of the future board members). He added that TI has been a tremendous asset to Sherman, Howe, and Grayson County. He felt the settlement will help avoid any hard feelings between the two school districts. Sherman School Board President Darold Adami said, “This settlement is in the best interest of the (Sherman) school district and the taxpayers of this district.” The more than $100,000 paid to Howe by Sherman in the past 16 years is less than 10 percent of the tax money Texas Instruments has paid to the Sherman district, according to Tucker. Former Supt. Boyle said last year that Howe had voted the extra bonds on the assumption that the payments from Sherman would continue. The agreement was the result of many months of negotiations between attorneys for both districts.

Peggy’s Porch (Continued from page 1)

put the clothes? What if we ran out of clothes? What if no one helped? Well, there was a leader at Solomon’s Porch who spoke words of encouragement and inspiration over this God-given dream. Others right here in this room encouraged Jackie…both in word and in deed.. to pursue it, and for that, this community and surrounding communities will be forever grateful. Jackie called my brother and me (Doug Richardson and Mary Martha Richardson Stewart) and asked if we would allow her to name this ministry Peggy’s Porch in honor of our Mom. Of course, we wholeheartedly agreed, because for those of you who were blessed to know Peggy Richardson, you know that she lived a life dedicated to honoring the Lord, she was one that put the needs of others above her own, she was one that gave generously… even if she didn’t have much, she was the one that encouraged and spoke (and wrote in countless personal notes and cards) God’s words to others. She was affectionately named “The Cookie Lady,” because when someone would move into the neighborhood, she was the first one to drop by with cookies and a warm welcome. She was a stalwart prayer warrior and a woman who truly lived her faith in Jesus Christ and personally could testify to the faithfulness of God. That’s why the hymn, Great is thy faithfulness, was one of her favorites. Over the past decade, God has shown

Himself time and time again, through the lives, the hands, the feet and the generosity of many present in this room today. Because of your donations of time, resources, money and clothes, we have been able to serve over 500 people a year; that’s 5000+ people over the past ten years. One friend of the Porch donated a sink, one a toilet. A local doctor built beautiful shoe racks for us. A couple donated a storage unit to store donations. Local high school and college youth groups…one from as far away as Wichita Falls…came to donate their time. As did the Girl Scouts, the Boy Scouts, the Howe High School Cheerleaders and National Honor Society. Great Days of Service did clean up at the porch one year. A young 8 year old walked up to Jackie one day in church and gave her $1 and some change for the porch. One Eagle Scout built the donation bin across the alley from the Porch and another built the porch on the Porch! The local librarian, in partnership with school administrators and counselors, created a Christmas Store one year with clothes, accessories and home goods from Peggy’s Porch so that Elementary and Middle School kids who did not have the means to buy gifts for their family could choose what they wanted…at no cost to them. Our gratitude to the City of Howe is overflowing. We are so very thankful for the use of the building and all you and your staff have done to give us a “home.” The Howe Enterprise has been so supportive, and the volunteers have made all of this possible. Some of you have been with us for

Friends of Peggy’s Porch celebrating ten years. Courtesy photo. the entire ten years! You have worked tirelessly sorting, folding, hanging and even washing clothes! You help out every Saturday and you give extra time when we have clean up days or change out the clothes in the Porch for the new season. Your gift of unwavering service does not go unnoticed and I want you to know how much you are appreciated and loved. Additionally, many of you in this room have donated beautiful clothes and accessories, money, hangers, trash bags, paper towels, toilet paper, paint, air conditioners, and more. Thanks to the overwhelming kindness and generosity of all of you and this community, a student was able to have a terrific suit for the prom. A middle school band student who needed black pants and a white shirt was able to find what she needed at the Porch, thanks to our middle school teachers. The elementary and middle school nurses and counselors are able to secure extra clothing for students in need, without embarrassing them. Students who cannot afford Bulldog swag were blessed when they found free t-shirts, shorts and athletic gear at the Porch. Families who suffer from the loss of a fire as well as foster parents who need clothes for a child placed in their care have

been blessed by this ministry. Men and women who were starting a new job but didn’t have the appropriate clothes were able to find just what they needed…at just the right time. Local groups going on mission trips have been able to take clothes from the porch; this ministry has extended into Mexico and South Texas as well as the Indian reservations of New Mexico. Single moms who came in to find baby clothes for an 18-month-old boy…were blessed because someone had just dropped off a bag full of clothes…for an 18 month old boy! How does all this happen? It happens when willing servants are the feet and hands of God here on earth. When communities come together to help each other and bless those who are less fortunate. Did we ever run out of clothes? No…because Great is God’s faithfulness and great is the faithfulness of all of you in this room, and many who could not be with us today. Please accept our deepest gratitude for all that you have done to make this ministry possible, and may we all continue to come together so that it is able to not just survive, but THRIVE in the years ahead. God bless you all and thank you for coming.

The angel said, “Jesus is not here, He is risen!” This is the time of year when Christians focus on the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Spring is a season of new life as His followers rememDr. Billy Holland ber how He suffered and shed His blood on the cross and after three days He arose victoriously from the grave. To be honest, holy week is not so much a jolly time of celebration but rather calls for serious meditation, humility, and being grateful for the precious gift of salvation. It is bittersweet because it’s never pleasant to imagine an innocent person being brutally tortured, but knowing that Jesus miraculously came back to life, is a demonstration of His infinite power and authority and why we are so filled with humility and joy. Jesus Christ demonstrated His passion by surrendering His life so that we could live. I admit I am an emotional person. I remember going to see the Passion movie when it was released, and I was deeply touched, to say the least. It’s not uncommon for me to shed a tear when I witness something that moves my soul and this was no exception. Recently, I was watching a story about the “Make-a-wish foundation” and how they provide a way for very sick children to experience a happy but most likely last request and I cried through the entire program. As the scenes of what Christ went through were presented, I wondered how anyone could watch this and not be convicted. I’m not ashamed to wear my feelings on my sleeve. I have no desire to hide behind a mask to pretend I’m not spiritually discerning. I often write about how easy it is to become calloused by the harshness of life and the danger of losing the sensitivity of our conscience. I think about the life of Jesus and the reason why He came to earth which is explained so clearly in the sixteenth verse of the third chapter of John. I think about how He was betrayed by those He trusted and was denied by His closest friends. The religious community rejected His message as did the political system along with the demands from the general population,

who eventually agreed to publicly execute Him for admitting He was the Son of God. Sadly, things have not changed that much. We know that Jesus existed, that He was an amazing teacher and had the power to demonstrate miracles, but it’s when He rose from the dead that proves He is truly the Messiah and sets Him apart from every other religion in the world. We notice that He was constantly approached by those in desperate need and it was His character to be concerned and compassionate. The world has always been filled with human suffering and He is always ready to respond with love and mercy. Being knowledgeable about the Bible is good but that does not necessarily mean that someone is following Christ. It is what they do with what they have learned that transforms emotions into spiritual obedience. When we see someone who needs help or even an encouraging word, what good does it do to just look at them with pity? Christ was always ministering to those who would reach out to Him by faith and two thousand years later He is still pouring out His grace and forgiveness to anyone that will call upon His name. As His followers, we have been called to focus our attention on becoming more like Him despite a troubled world that justifies walking over the wounded and being self-centered. His command to take up our cross includes letting go of our natural way of selfish thinking and willingly allowing Christ to be the hope of glory within us. The more we learn about His life, the more we realize that His love was more than words. As we meditate on His mission this week, His grace gives us a deeper understanding of who He is, and how He desires to live through us. The reverence and awareness of who Jesus is and why He came is heaven’s promise of eternal life, and it’s our responsibility to remain steadfast in our obedience to Him. Beyond the new clothes, the feasts, and the Easter festivities, may we give honor and worship to Christ that rescued us from being permanently separated from God. Dear friend, without being forgiven of our sins, we are carrying the weights and chains of misery and hopelessness. Come to Jesus today and He will set you free, save you, and be with you forever.

Texas History Minute With springtime, Texans turn watchful eyes to the sky for rising storm clouds or sudden shifts in winds. Thought tornadoes Ken Bridges have occurred in all 50 states, Texas is part of the notorious “Tornado Alley” where the often-volatile mix of cool, dry air from the Rocky Mountains mixes with the warm, moist air from the Gulf of Mexico most commonly meet on the Great Plains to produce the violent storms. Tornadoes have been observed in Texas for centuries. In fact, “tornado” is a Spanish word originating from the early Spanish explorers who saw the deadly twisting winds on the early frontier. Though they have been observed as long as people have trod on Texas soil, one of the earliest recorded tornado deaths in Texas was from an April 1885 outbreak that killed 60 people in the Waco area. Tornadoes have been reported in every region of the state and have been reported in each of the Lower 48 states. Tornadoes are powerful, compact storms with swirling winds of up to 300 miles per hour. It is these intense winds in the more powerful tornadoes that produce the more unusual stories of straw being flung into trees intact or cars or even trains being lifted up and carried long distances. Most tornadoes have weak winds and never touch the ground, but they can intensify suddenly and without warning. Some tornadoes can travel over a hundred miles before dissipating. In fact, a 1947 tornado formed in the Panhandle and tore through Oklahoma before dissolving in Kansas, leaving 181 dead in its wake. Tornadoes can form at any time of day or night, they are most common in the late afternoon. However, tornadoes at night have often been the most terrifying. In the years before weather warnings, radio, or storm sirens, communities had no way of knowing if a violent storm was approaching during the night and no way to prepare. Near midnight on May 30, 1909, the town of Zephyr in Brown County was wrecked by a tornado that left 34 dead. One of the deadliest was in Goliad in May 1902. A tornado that day left 114 dead and nearly 300 injured. Equally as deadly was the disastrous May 11, 1953, tornado in Waco. The storm, measured at one-third of a mile wide, also claimed 114 lives and left nearly 600 injured as the tornado swept through the city, destroying 600 homes. In April 1927, a tornado in Rocksprings in South Texas destroyed all but 12 buildings in the city and killed 74. An April 1947 outbreak saw a tornado move from near Canadian to

Glazier and Higgins in the Panhandle before moving into Oklahoma, leaving 181 dead. One of the worst in Texas History struck Wichita Falls on the afternoon of April 10, 1979. The tornado formed northeast of Holliday in Archer County and raced to the city. The tornado was more than a mile wide as it wrecked a school and a shopping center in the south side of the city, leaving 42 dead and more than 1,700 injured. More than 3,000 homes were destroyed. What came to be called “Terrible Tuesday” haunted the city for years afterward. Tornadoes are most common in the span of April through June. In fact, each May will see an average of 100 tornadoes erupting in the state. If the conditions are right, they can appear any time during the year, from the Gulf Coast to West Texas. A February 1935 tornado hit the East Texas counties of Leon and Houston, leaving 12 dead in its wake. In January 1946, a deadly tornado hit rural Anderson County, leaving 15 dead. Since the end of World War II, technological advances have steadily improved understanding of how and when tornadoes form. Use of radar combined with observations of wind, humidity, and air pressure associated with storm activity greatly advanced weather forecasting techniques. Looking at the success of Air Force weathermen in issuing a tornado watch in 1948 to save lives, prompted the warning system to be adopted everywhere. By the late 1980s, extensive research into tornadoes and new radar systems prompted the National Weather Service to establish a system of Doppler radar towers to monitor the weather. By the mid-1990s, a network of improved Doppler radar sites had been set up across the nation, carefully scanning each storm and relaying that information to the media, to the public, and to government agencies. Better computer systems allowed forecasters to scan these storms for rotation that would indicate tornado formation. Meteorologists can now have a warning of up to 15 minutes that one may be forming. Because of these developments, better warning systems, and better storm shelters, fatalities from tornadoes have plummeted since the 1950s. Tornado drills have been regular features in schools across the South for decades. In spite of our advances in technology and more sophisticated warning systems, we are still at the mercy of nature. With each storm, neighbors would always come together and rebuild, determined not to let disaster be the end. Though tornadoes can appear with little warning, careful attention to weather forecasts, preparation, and modern technology can save lives.

Living with children Q: My almost -3-year-old, when I begin to do something, will yell, “I WILL DO IT!” When it’s something he can do, John Rosemond fine, but if it’s not, then I just say, “No, Mommy will do it” and that’s the end of it. He also tells me, probably ten times a day, “No nap, Mommy! No nap!” When it’s naptime, however, he goes upstairs and gets in his little bed without a fight. Finally, when I tell him to do something, he’ll say, “Ummmm, no.” But then he turns right around and obeys. Should I make an issue of any of this? A: Not unless you want to begin creating a problem where one does not currently exist. Concerning your son’s harmless little displays of chutzpah, your great-grandmother would have said “Leave well enough alone,” and when it comes to children, your greatgrandmother is my role model. Older twos and threes are very imaginative and experimental. I’m thinking your son is simply experimenting with being oppositional and (at times) insolent, but in your most blessed case, it seems experimenting is as far as it’s going to go. If you respond to these declarations with consequences, you stand a good chance of making a mountain out of a molehill, in which case you may end up with a power struggle on your hands. You’ve done a great job of responding very matter-of-factly to his pretend rebellion and preventing it from going further than pretend. Keep up the good work. Q: My 14-month-old was taking baths just fine until about a month ago

when he became enraged because I wouldn’t let him stand up in the sink (which is where I’ve bathed him until now). Ever since then, he becomes hysterical when I take him to the sink or the tub. I’ve tried putting him in without water (with toys) in order to help him re-form a positive association, but no luck. We’ve gone to the local indoor pool twice now and he began to relax and splash around a little by the end of the second trip. I would love not to have to rely solely on sponge baths and showers with mom to get him clean. Should I cater to his fears and rest bath-time for now, or should I push the issue? A: Although it may look like it, this is not rebellion. Your son freaked when you wouldn’t let him out of the sink. This may have been the biggest emotional reaction he’s had to anything thus far in his short life, so it made a big impression, one that’s going to take time and patience to undo. In the meantime, it’s sponge baths and showers and baths with Mommy. When he’s comfortable going into the tub and being held in your arms (don’t turn on the water until you’re in there, and even then, turn it just past trickle), try getting out without him and seeing how he does. But give it at least a month before you make that attempt. Bottom line: this too, will pass. Family psychologist John Rosemond: parentguru.com, johnrosemond. com. John Rosemond has worked with families, children, and parents since 1971 in the field of family psychology. In 1971, John earned his masters in psychology from Western Illinois University and was elected to the Phi Kappa Phi National Honor Society.

The Patriot Pony Optics 101 By Derek Johnson TheDocuments.info Optics 101 Everything you’ve witnessed from January 20, 2017, to present day is a Covert Operation to restore the Republic. It’s all a Plan. In order to Trust the Plan. You have to learn the Plan. It’s been in planning for many, many years. Everything that “Biden,” the “Establishment,” and Media has done from January 20, 2017, is all a script and optics. Military took over in October 2016. Military Generals and Intelligence knows EVERYTHING. All of what you’re seeing, hearing, watching are all in Law and Order from January 20, 2017, to January 20, 2021. Once you learn those, you’ll be able to see every single Optic in every single “news” article from this day forward (an one’s from past) as those entities are completing their Treason Fraud Crimes Against Humanity TO THE WORLD as President Trump said: “The evidence and crimes will be shown to the public in FULL ACCORDANCE TO THE LAW.” Everything from November 3, 2020, is a Script YOU are watching being played out publicly due to: The Uniform Code of Military Justice (Military Law) The Constitution The Declaration of Independence Military Optics via Code Language Military Optics via Symbolism Military Regulations Marine Law of 1834 Executive Orders Presidential Emergency Active Documents (PEADs) Presidential Acts National Emergencies Maritime Law U.S. Codes U.S. Law How did President Trump know? How did President Trump, the Military, and his Administration know to write every key Executive Order from 2017 to 2021 with SPECIFIC DATES inside to be activated and enacted ON and AFTER November 3, 2020, and AFTER January 6, 2021?

Once again, it’s a script. Like watching a movie. You did not get to see all of the planning, pre-production, and operational strategies, you just get to see the final results. From 2017 to 2021, a lot of you thought that certain Trump Team Members, Staff, Administration, and Military ‘turned’ on him, but they didn’t, it was a part of the Operation, they’re called “White Hat Operatives.” Optics within optics. If you did not already know Law or follow along with the Laws being signed from 2017 to 2021, you were going to be blind and fall for the bait as you did with everything you witnessed from January 6 and January 20 to present day. Many of you need to look up the book “The Art of War” and read it. It’s one of the most popular books amongst Generals, Military Officers and Military period. Such as passages: ‘looking weak, when you’re strong; and strong, when you’re weak.” Or when you’re crossing a river… be sure to cross it “this kind of way…” etc. The Military via the Constitution, the UCMJ (Military Law), Military Regulations, Military Symbolizations / Symbolisms, Code Language, Optics, the Declaration of Independence, U.S. Codes, and Federal Law successfully wrote, activated, executed, and are executing to this day in and from Executive Orders: the Space Force, the Quantum Advisory Committee (The ‘Q’ aka The QAnoners (in which the mainstream left wing media call “Conspiracy Theories”), Maritime Law, National Emergencies, Election Fraud Committee, National Security Threats, the SCIF - Sensitive Compartmentalized Information Facility (TS/SCI = Top Security (clearance)/Special Compartmentalized Information), Activating all 3 line of defenses in the Country (Active Duty, National Guard, and Reserve components). For example, the night of the Election November 3, 2020; The Military - Pentagon / Generals / World Generals - and President Trump already knew Hillary’s campaign did not dump enough votes to win via cheating (in simple terms) with the Dominion electronic machines… therefore in May 2017, in his first few months, he signed this EO:

Military has its own law = the Uniform Code of Military Justice. The Constitution is the highest law in the land backed by the Military.

Presidential Advisory Commission on Election Integrity https:// www.federalregister.gov/documents/2017/05/16/2017-10003/establishment-of-pr esidential-advisory-commission-on-election-integrity

The Military came first in our Nation. The Military was created to make sure the Government did not get too radical. Hence why they stepped in. This did not just start recently. Our Country isn’t the Country you think it’s been.

I already know what you’d say if you read that last paragraph while in conversation with me… I used November 3, 2020, and Hillary was not the opponent… you’re 111% correct.

Admiralty Maritime Law explained: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYNukOeeDY

The Military and President Trump knew Hillary did not dump enough votes in 2016, therefore “Biden,” actually the Corporation, had to dump too many on November 3, 2020.

Military can act with or without the President, Congress, and Courts. The President has War Time Powers as written in the Constitution, 47 United States Code 606: 47 United States Code 606: https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/47/606 The United States Marines have their own Law within and under The UCMJ, called Marine Law of 1834. Each Branch has Regulations and Symbolizations. Donald Trump was approached by Military and World Generals to be the Leader aka the Frontman to and for the people of this brilliant, Biblical, Monumental, and Historical COVERT OPERATION in where the planning began in 2012. I know it’s a LOT of information… which is why I’m giving the bullet point facts to read first… then you (reading) need to set up a phone call with me or zoom or FaceTime and I can piece the blueprint together more in a flow versus having to read it straight on as you are. The most important items, if you didn’t know ANYTHING else… are these: 1. The Universal Code of Military Justice (Military Law) 2. Executive Orders (President Trumps) 3. Presidential and National Emergencies 4. Military Ops, Regs, Symbolism (Ex: Gold-Fringed Flag, National Guard activation, etc) 5. Optics Down below I show you a few examples of Optics, though, Optics happen every single day. Once you learn what happened from 2017-2021, you’ll be able to know what to look for in each news article, by applying the tools I’ve given you, you’ll start seeing the Optics, Symbols, and Code Languages every single day and tie them in.

Remember: Trump Roasting Hillary in public October 2016: https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=Bmvxx_YbDsM Everything he said in this video = he did. As lifelong statisticians, many liberal and left-wing professionals who admitted for the integrity of their field, numbers do not turn and straight line up (in a graph) the way they did. Also, states do not “call” their Election as did Arizona with 2% reporting “in.” As well as a few others that called theirs for “Biden” with percentages well under 50%. However, it really does not matter what they say or what you “saw” with the naked eye. The Military Intelligence Departments already knew. (Continue reading…)

Twitter—@rattletrap1776 If you’re talking/posting about “Biden” in present tense and Robert Kennedy in future… you’re in for a VERY RUDE awakening. Laws are revised or revoked, Orders are rescinded or mission accomplished. The Laws and Orders, current and active, outline a CLEAR Military Op & COG
