Speaker Ryan Meets Ringgold Middle School’s 8th Romualdo Lozano, Jr. Awarded with Local Leaders Grade A Team Wins in Tournament Selective College Scholarship

On February 22, as part of his tour of the Rio Grande Valley, Speaker Ryan met with and listened to nearly a dozen local leaders from throughout the Rio Grande Valley region of Texas to learn more about the challenges they face in their communities along the southern border.

The speaker made clear that Congress is committed to securing the border by providing law enforcement professionals the tools and support they need to stop the flow of illegal immigration. He also recognized the importance of partnering with local communities to develop effective border security measures and solutions for crossborder trade.

The local leaders expressed their appreciation for Speaker Ryan and the congressional delegation spending time in South Texas to truly understand the complex set of issues involved with border security, especially as it relates to those communities closest to our southern border. They also encouraged the delegation to pursue economic policies that would lead to mutually beneficial relations between the United States and Mexico.

To that end, Speaker Ryan reaffirmed his commitment to modernizing trade agreements with our neighbors, and he highlighted the House Republican plan for tax reform, which would help level the playing field so that American job creators can compete with the rest of the

world.

Judge Eloy Vera of Starr County “I appreciate Speaker Ryan coming to the Rio Grande Valley and seeing first-hand the people and lands on the front lines of the border security debate. It was clear to me he came here to learn, listen and cut through the rhetoric, and I look forward to our community working with him and our congressional delegation in the months ahead.”

Ringgold Middle School’s 8th Grade A team showed off their amazing talent in Basketball at Veterans Middle School. The tournament was an all-day event and RMS did not put their guard down at all. They managed to defeat all 3 teams. They defeated Roma Middle School 24-6, they defeated Grulla Middle School 18-16, and Veterans Middle School 14-13.

Rio Grande City High School congratulates Romualdo Lozano, Jr. for being awarded the CAMP (College Assistance Migrant Program) scholarship at St. Edward’s University. Romualdo is one of thirty five students who will be receiving the four year scholarship that will cover all costs. CAMP students are welcomed to St. Edward’s University with a supportive team dedicated in helping them succeed from the very beginning. Romualdo will be double majoring in Computer Science and Graphic Design. He is the son of Romualdo & Adriana Lozano.

Ya cuatro años de llorar mi ausencia Mamita querida. Ya no estoy presente, Dios a querido llevarme junto a el. Te veo todos los días, en cualquier rincón de la casa estoy junto a ustedes. Piensa que solo mi cuerpo esta lejos, mi corazón y mi presencia esta con ustedes. Siente mi presencia y háblame, yo te escucho Mamita.

Se que mi partida fue muy repentina. Mamita quiero que le des consuelo a mi Papito, no tuve tiempo de despedirme y el también llora. Mientras tus lagrimas rueden por tus mejillas yo no tengo calma, entiende Mamita, era hora de mi partida. Cuanto me duele cuando me buscas tras los cristales y esperas aun mi llegada. Sigo teniendo vida, solo mi cuerpo se aparto de mis seres queridos. Cuando piensen en mi imaginen que estoy de viaje, que un día estaré en sus brazos nuevamente y me podrán dar todos los besos que ahora extrañan y que yo necesito. Mamita cuida a Papito y a mis hermanos, ellos también te necesitan. Ya no me llores, déjame descansar, recuerda que siempre estarás en mi corazón.

Se celebrara una misa el Domingo 19 de Marzo del 2017 a las 9:45 a.m. en la Iglesia Holy Family Church en Los Saenz, Texas Te amamos por toda la eternidad departe de tu familia

students into critical national security jobs, through existing programs and the awarding of competitive funding.

“Our military is strongest when it can recruit from a broad talent pool that reflects our whole diverse society,” said Congressman Henry Cuellar. “We need STEM talent to tackle 21st century security challenges, and students in largely Hispanic communities like my district are ready to fill those jobs – if given the chance to succeed. I fought to include this funding and language in the bill because it is in the best interest of both our national security and our local students.”

The Congressman also secured other major national security allocations in the final bill, including funding for National Guard programs to conduct surveillance over the southern border and fight international drug trafficking.

Roma Middle School 8th Grade and Alto Bonito Elementary Congratulate 7th Grade Girls District Champions All of Their U.I.L. Students

Congratulations to the Roma Middle School 8th Grade Girls A and 7th Grade Girls B Basketball Team on their District Championship!

DPS Urges Drivers to Practice Safety During Spring Break The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) is reminding Texans that Spring Break represents a break from school and work – but not safety. In expectation of increased highway traffic, the department is urging drivers to obey all traffic laws and use extra caution when driving during the weeks of Spring Break.

“DPS is calling on all drivers to do their part to keep Texas roadways safe for travelers during the busy spring vacation season,” said DPS Director Steven McCraw.

“By always driving sober, obeying traffic laws and keeping your attention on the road, Texans can decrease their chances of being involved in a life-threatening situation or crash.”

In addition, DPS Troopers and local law enforcement in the coastal areas of Texas will be enhancing enforcement efforts during Spring Break, watching for speeders, drunk drivers and seatbelt violators.

DPS offers the following tips for safe travel during the Spring Break holiday: •Slow down – especially in bad weather, construction areas, heavy traffic and unfamiliar areas.

•Eliminate distractions while driving, including the usage of mobile devices.

•Buckle up everyone in the vehicle – it’s the law.

•Don’t drive fatigued, and allow plenty of time to reach your destination.

•Make sure your vehicle is properly maintained before your trip begins.

•Slow down or move over for

tow trucks, as well as police, fire, EMS and Texas Department of Transportation vehicles stopped on the side of the road with emergency lights activated – it’s the law. Also, show the same courtesy to fellow drivers stopped along the road.

Alto Bonito Elementary would like to congratulate all of their U.I.L. students. These participants worked extremely hard all year and brought back many trophies and ribbons. A special thanks to all of the coaches for working with these students and preparing them for their events. Pictured are this year’s U.I.L. students and coaches. Also pictured, are Mr. Rene Pena, Principal and Ms. Laura Garza, Asst. Principal.

Congratulations once again, and Go Roadrunners!

On February 10, Alto Bonito Elementary had its annual Jump Rope for Heart event. This event helps kids raise awareness of the importance of keeping a healthy life-style for their own well-being. Students are able to improve their jump rope skills, help kids with special hearts, and learn how to care for their own heart.

This year, with the help and generosity of the students, staff, and community, Alto Bonito Elementary was able to raise a little over $3,662.90 to donate to the American Heart Association.

This year’s goal was $2,500 and they clearly made the effort to surpass this.

Special awards were presented to the top donors in each grade

level, and the top 3 were given the chance to choose one of the coaches to pie in the face!

A special thanks to the coaches, Mr. Demetrio Bazan and Mrs. Jesseca Carrera for organizing the event. It was a tremendous success!

Colima has cat-claw thorns and is aromatic Impressive g i a n t swallowtail butterflies are part of our diverse tamaulipan ecosystem that we all enjoy seeing.

Their host plant is lime prickly ash or colima, as it’s better known here in the Valley. A host plant is the plant on which a butterfly’s caterpillars feed and we must have both host plants, for larvae, and nectar plants, for adults, if we want to have butterflies.

such as white-winged doves build their nests on colima branches.

Of special note is the fact that, as I indicated at the beginning of this article, giant swallowtail butterflies lay their eggs on colima. The eggs hatch and very distinctive caterpillars emerge and eat the leaves. The caterpillars look like bird droppings, that is, feces. The reason for such an appearance is that birds which like to eat caterpillars may not want to eat another bird’s droppings. It’s a survival strategy that, while not perfect, helps.

Colima, a member of the citrus family, is a distinctive and essential part of the diverse flora in the Valley. Enjoy its interesting features but beware of the thorns.

through a patch of colima bushes!

Colima has small thorns which are very sharp and curved like cat’s claws. They can painfully grab onto you.

Other features are also interesting. The plant is evergreen: it always has green leaves although during the winter or during droughts the leaves have a yellow-green tinge. The flowers are tiny and come in loose clusters in the spring after the growth of new leaves begins. Colima is a monoecious species, that is, it has male and female flowers on different plants. If you want seeds, you have to have two plants.

Lots of birds eat colima seeds and deer browse the leaves, which are 15 percent crude protein. Birds

Colima is usually seen as a bush The “prickly” part of the name but can grow to be a small tree is worth noting. Don’t ever run

over 25 feet tall. It has pinnately compound leaves which means that they have a row of leaflets on both sides of a central stem and an additional leaflet at the tip. Each leaflet has tiny, blunt teeth along its margins.

The central stem of the leaf, called the rachis, has narrow flattened wings on its sides between the leaflets. That’s distinctive and makes colima fairly easy to identify, especially if you also crush a leaflet and sniff the aroma it has, which is like lime or citrus. The aroma accounts for the name “lime prickly ash.”

Running on a variety of surfaces instead of sticking to just one surface may help runners reduce their risk of injury. Officials with the USA Track and Field’s Sports Medicine and Science Committee recommend that runners vary their runs so they run on pavement, trails and tracks. While it helps to run on various surfaces, researchers do not believe one particular surface is better than another. In fact, while running on asphalt has long been assumed to increase injury risk because of the presumption that harder surfaces produce greater impact forces on the body, a 2008 study from researchers at the Hannover Medical School Department of Plastic, Hand and Reconstructive Surgery in Germany found that running on asphalt surfaces decreased midportion tendinopathy risk while running on sand surfaces increased that risk tenfold.
