“April has been busy here
at The Seasons,” Martinez said.
“We had an Easter egg hunt and hid over 200 eggs in the building,” she added. “There were lots of winners and everyone got an Easter egg prize. The residents talked about their first Eas-ter hunt, it was a really nice time of sharing and fun.”
“Three residents had birthdays this month, so we have been cooking every week with lots of goodies for the residents to take back to their apartments,” she said. “A daughter of one of the residents came to show us how to make homemade lotion, which worked really well.”
“We have taken the bus out on a few trips, to Dairy

CallToday!Q: We’ve had some very
sunny days lately. Has there ever been a day when there were no clouds at all over the United States?
A: The short answer is probably no, but no one really knows for sure, says Brent McRoberts of Texas A&M University. Modern weather records only go back about 100 years, so if there were cloudless days in the U.S. before then, it would not have been re-corded. “This very question has been asked before,” he says. “The National Center for Atmospheric Research has some of the top weather
people in the world, and their best guess is that it’s probably impossible for the entire U.S. to have a cloud-less day. Modern satellite images have been in use since the early 1970s and they provide us with the best overall pictures of the U.S., but the best answer appears to be a ‘no.’ “
Q: Why are there no cloudless days over the U.S.?
A: The sheer size of the country is one reason. With more land mass, there’s a greater chance that some-place you will have some clouds and storms, McRob-erts adds. “But adding to that is a constant flow of weather systems moving across the U.S., and these almost always have clouds somehow associated with them,” he explains. “This ap-
plies to the continental U.S., but especially is true with Alaska and Hawaii, where either rain or snow is al-most a daily occurrence, and of course, you won’t have sunny days in those condi-tions. So it’s safe to say that somewhere in the U.S. at any given time, there are storms of some type, meaning the chance of a cloudless day across America is probably near zero.”

State Comptroller Susan Combs reminds Texans of the May 24 through May 26 sales tax holiday for certain energy efficient household appliances.
The annual state sales tax holiday applies to “Energy Star” qualified air condi-tioners priced at $6,000 or less, refrigerators priced at $2,000 or less, ceiling fans, fluorescent light bulbs, dish-washers, dehumidifiers and clothes washers. Clothes dryers do not qualify.
“Shoppers can save mon-ey up front by not having to pay sales tax when buying appliances during the holi-day weekend and the energy efficient products can help reduce utility bill costs,” Combs said.

Texas Workforce Com-mission on May 16 report-ed Texas employers added 64,100 jobs in April for a total of 348,000 season-ally adjusted non-farm jobs added over the year.
And, Texas’ unemploy-ment rate fell to 5.2% in April, down from 5.5% in March and down from 6.4 % a year ago.
“April was a robust month for Texas job growth. The unemployment rate contin-ues to fall and we posted the highest monthly job growth in well over three years,” said Texas Work-force Com-mission Chairman Andres Alcantar.
In April, employment in professional and business services grew by 20,100 po-sitions, the largest monthly increase ever recorded for that industry, and eight of the 11 major industries in Texas experienced positive growth, the agency reported.
Nelson Wayne Hooper, 72, of Perryton, passed peacefully on Wednesday, May 14, 2014.
Wayne Hooper was born on Aug. 5, 1941 to Parvin and Lenora Hooper in Perryton. He married Mary-Ann Wilson on May 14, 1965. He went home to his beautiful bride for their 49th Anniversary.
In his life he accom-plished many things. He left Perryton in 1959 to serve in the U.S. Air Force as a computer techni-cian in the 305th Bomb Wing and on the B-58 Hustler Bomber. He was one of many volunteers who helped compile “The Wheatheart of the Plains History Marches On” book. He erected and built the flag pole at Whigham Park and cut out the Rang-er symbols on the old gate at the entrance of Ranger Field. He was involved in a group of first responders called REACT. Wayne also worked at PISD in the maintenance department and at the police station as a dispatcher.
In 1981, he moved the family to Waka so he could work at the Farmland In-dustries Ammonia Ter-minal, where he worked for over 30 years until retirement as an engineer, electrician, handy man and
plant operator. He was a big part of the Waka Indepen-dent School Districts school board as a trustee. He was a volunteer with the Waka Fire Department, keeping it going, putting out fires, weather watching and chas-ing tornados.
In his later years, once again in Perryton, Wayne helped with the preparation and set up of the American Veterans Traveling Tribute Wall, also, comprising a list of veterans who were killed in action in foreign wars in a one-hundred twenty mile radius around Perryton. He played a big role walking and tirelessly working at the Ochiltree County Cemetery updating records with his wife; charting where all the Veterans were laid to rest and making the metal flag holders that help beautify the cemetery on Memorial Day. He was a member of the American Legion and arranged and did many Vet-erans Flag Presentations with the Honor Guard. He was also a member of the Elks Lodge.
Wayne was always a will-ing soul who helped people in their times of need and he got much enjoyment out of sharing his life and talents with others, never asking for anything in return. He loved to fix and refurbish bicycles for children on his street
and also many that were donated to Toys for Tots. He patched and repaired the ceiling of the indoor gun range. He was the funniest man. He loved to tell jokes and share stories with any-one who would listen. He will be sorely missed.
Wayne was preceded in death by his father Parvin, his wife Mary-Ann and one infant son. He is sur-vived by his mother, Le-nora Hooper of Conway Springs, Kansas; and his sister Judy Leatherman and her husband Larry of Erie, Colorado. His son, Payne Hooper and wife Josephine of Perryton; his daughter, Lori Borst and her husband Ted of Perryton; his grand-daughter Kaleb Hooper of Perryton; his grandsons Zayne Hooper, Aaron Borst and Coy Borst, all of Perryton, and grandson Josiah Borst of Bertram Texas.
Celebration of Life Cer-emony to be held Sunday, June 1, at 2 p.m. at the Ochiltree County Cem-etery. In lieu of viewing, there will be a memorial book at Boxwell Broth-ers in Perryton from May 29th-31st. All are wel-come to attend.
The family request me-morials to Perryton Honor Guard, V.F.W. or American Legion.

Speaker wantshighway fund for
transportation onlyAUSTIN—House Speaker
Joe Straus on May 14 saidthe Texas House of Repre-sentatives would propose abudget next year that uses allof the money in the statehighway fund for transpor-tation instead of sendingchunks of it to other stateagencies.
Taxes and fees such as thegas tax and fees on drivers’licenses go into the statehighway fund to pay fortransportation, but for al-most 80 years, Straus ex-plained, some of that moneyhas helped fund agenciesthat are not directly relatedto transportation.
Using the state highwayfund exclusively for trans-portation would increasefunding for roads by about$1.3 billion over two years,Straus, R-San Antonio, added.
“This approach will makethe state budget even morestraightforward, just as tax-payers expect. It will alsoprovide needed transporta-tion revenue — without atax increase — as Texas con-tinues to grow twice as fastas the rest of the country,”Straus said.Panel votes to impeach
The Texas House SelectCommittee on Transparencyon May 12 met in closed ses-sion and voted 7-1 to im-peach University of TexasBoard of Regents memberWallace L. Hall Jr. of Dallas.
A report cited during thecommittee’s open sessionalleges Hall, who was ap-pointed by Gov. Rick Perryin February 2011, “abusedthe powers of his office andmay have broken the law inhis campaign to force theUT Regents to vote to fireUT President Bill Powers.”
May 21 and May 22 meet-ings are scheduled for thecommittee to further con-sider and possibly take ac-tion on the issue.Children are focus of
workSpeaker Straus on May 15
announced nine appointeesto the House Select Com-mittee on Child Protection,a panel charged with study-ing abuse and neglect fatali-ties in Texas and makingrecommendations to protectchildren.
The panel will work withpublic members of the Pro-tect our Kids Commissioncreated by the Legislature in2013 to study the rate ofchild abuse and neglect fa-talities and to recommendstrategies to prevent and re-duce them.
“I am confident that thiscommittee will providemeaningful recommenda-tions to improve outcomesfor Texas children,” Straus said.
State Rep. Dawnna Dukes,D-Austin, will chair the panel.Members include Reps. CindyBurkett, R-Sunnyvale; TonyDale, R-Cedar Park; JessicaFarrar, D-Houston; JamesFrank, R-Wichita Falls;John Frullo, R-Lubbock;Bobby Guerra, D-Mission;Toni Rose, D-Dallas; andJ.D. Sheffield, R-Gatesville.
Early voting periodbegins
Texas Secretary of StateNandita Berry on May 15published a reminder to vot-ers that early voting for theMay 27 Primary RunoffElection begins on May 19and runs through May 23.
GOP RecommendationsOn Tuesday, May 27 Texas voters will once again
go to the polls to determine which individuals will bethe nominees for the Republican and Democrat par-ties in a runoff election. The winners of those raceswill appear on the General Election ballot on Tues-day, November 4.
If the past is any indication of the future, the Re-publican nominees in Texas will win the General Elec-tion. That is why it is so important for voters to care-fully cast their ballot in the Republican Primary Run-off Election.
Early voting for the primaries started Monday, May19 and continues through Friday, May 23. Local vot-ers can mark their ballots on those days from 8:30am to 5 p.m., including the lunch hour, at the CountyClerk’s office on the second floor of the courthouse.
Since the elevators to the second floor are notworking an auxiliary early voting booths have beenset up on the first floor. The Tax Assessor-Collector’soffice (where you buy vehicle registration) will be ableto accept voter’s ballots,
In the election cycle, this is the time that voters’patience draws thin. After a party primary election anda municipal election for the school board and hospi-tal board, voters feel that they have done their duty.
Make an effort to go to the polls, either during EarlyVoting or on Election Day. Runoff elections are im-portant to determine the leaders of this state in thefuture.
There are four contested races that will appear onthe Republican ballot. Below are the recommenda-tions made to voters.
Lt. GovernorDavid Dewhurst has been the Lt. Gov. of Texas
since he was elected to the post in 2002. Before that,Dewhurst was elected to serve as the Texas LandCommissioner in 1999.
Before he was elected to public office, Dewhurstserved as an officer in the U. S. Air Force, an agentwith the Central Intelligence Agency and worked inthe U. S State Department. In 1981, he founded Fal-con Seaboard, a Houston based energy and invest-ment company.
Dewhurst has served well as the leader of theTexas Senate. He has brought the body throughtough budget negotiations and maintained a balancedbudget for this state.
Dewhurst has the legislative experience to dealwith the twists and turns of the Texas Senate.
Voters should give their approval to Dewhurst.Attorney General
Dan Branch is a social conservative. Branch sayshe is running for Texas Attorney General to defendthe Constitution and protect the Texas Miracle fromWashington’s overreach.
Since 2003, Branch has served in the TexasHouse, where he led the way in balancing six straightbudgets without raising taxes, passing the largest taxcut in Texas history, and championing landmark pro-life legislation. These efforts have made the LoneStar State leading the nation in job creation.
Branch should be the choice for Attorney General.Commissioner of Agriculture
Tommy Merritt is a former State Representativeand a small business owner. He also served as Di-rector for the Gregg County Appraisal District and onthe Sabine River Authority.
Merritt plans to use the Commission to help with thewater shortage in the state and appraisal reform to keepTexas agriculture competitive. He should get your vote.
Railroad CommissionerRyan Sitton is an easy choice. A mechanical en-
gineer out of Texas A&M, Sitton is the CEO and co-founder of an oil-and-gas engineering consulting firmbased in Pasadena. While Sitton, 39, plans to puthis company into a blind trust if elected, his businessexperience leaves him with eyes open to the prob-lems that the industry faces every day. Whether ad-vocating for better long-term planning or simply im-proving the Railroad Commission website, Sittondemonstrates a working knowledge of on-the-groundissues. Voters need to vote for Sitton.
Once they arrive, voters are handed a ballot thathas many names they have never heard of before.That is why the U. S. Supreme Court ruled manyyears ago that voters can take any printed materialthey want to the polling place. Clip and save theseand other recommendations for voting in the run offprimary election.

In his last months in of-fice, President George W.Bush warned, “Some seemto believe we should nego-tiate with terrorists and radi-cals, as if some ingeniousargument will persuadethem they have been wrongall along.
“We have heard this fool-ish delusion before.
“As Nazi tanks crossedinto Poland in 1939, anAmerican senator declared:‘Lord, if only I could havetalked to Hitler, all of thismight have been avoided.’
“We have an obligation tocall this what it is: the falsecomfort of appeasement,which has been repeatedlydiscredited by history.”
The Senator PresidentBush was referring to wasWilliam Borah of Idaho.But, both Barack Obamaand Hillary Clinton thoughtthey were the target of thoseremarks.
Obama has said in the pastthey he would negotiate,without preconditions, withIran, North Korea, Russiaand other terrorist states.That is the liberal mind set.
They firmly believe thatthere is no problem that can-not be overcome with nego-tiations. Just talk longenough and hard enough anda solution will be found isthe mantra.
In the real world that justdoes not work. Imagine ifTexas Gov. Rick Perry de-cided to negotiate with thedrug dealers who regularlycross the Mexican border.The basis of negotiation iscompromise, so what wouldGov. Perry offer?
If the drug lords only de-liver half their normal loadof poison, would he let theother half pass undeterred?What nonsense.
What about negotiatingwith terrorists. If the terror-ists promise to only blow uphalf as many people withtheir car bombs, would thatbe alright? What if they
Appeasementpromise to only make halfas many IEDs as in the past,would that be a successfulnegotiation?
What President Bush wasreferring to in his remarkswas the woeful series ofevents that preceded WorldWar II. In 1938 BritishPrime Minister NevilleChamberlain returned fromMunich, Germany after ne-gotiations with German dic-tator Adolph Hitler.
Chamberlain, to appeaseHitler, made a settlementthat Britain and Francewould not oppose the annex-ation of the Sudetenlandarea of Czechoslovakia.
When Chamberlain returnedto London he said, “...thesettlement of the Czechoslo-vakian problem, which hasnow been achieved is, in myview, only the prelude to alarger settlement in whichall Europe may find peace.This morning I had anothertalk with the German Chan-cellor, Herr Hitler, and hereis the paper which bears hisname upon it as well as mine(waves paper to the crowd -receiving loud cheers and“Hear Hears”). Some ofyou, perhaps, have alreadyheard what it contains but Iwould just like to read it to you...
‘“My good friends, for thesecond time in our history,a British Prime Minister hasreturned from Germanybringing peace with honor.I believe it is peace for ourtime.”
In a few short months Ger-man Panzer tanks rolled intoPoland and the most bloodyconflict the world had everseen began. That is what apolicy of appeasementbrings.
Just as she was celebrat-ing her 80th birthday, afriend received a jury-dutynotice. She called the clerk’soffice to remind them thatshe was exempt because ofher age.
“You need to come in andfill out the exemptionforms,” the clerk said.
“But I filled them out lastyear,” she replied.
“You have to fill them outevery year.”
