By SESHADRI KUMARFort Bend County non-prof-

it organizations have joined hands to create a data collec-tion and sharing system known as the Fort Bend County Col-laborative Information System (FBCCIS).

Fort Bend County Commis-siners Court recently autho-rized the Fort Bend County EMS Community Paramedic Program to submit a grant ap-plication to the George Founda-tion, in collaboration with other nonprofi ts and with Fort Bend County Social Services serving as the fi duciary agent.

This collaboration would al-low Fort Bend County organi-zations to share information in a database to help improve ef-fi ciency among service provid-ers and reduce duplication of

services. The objective of this col-

laborative is to improve the effi ciency and effectiveness of service delivery to county resi-dents. This collaborative cur-rently includes, but is not lim-ited to, non-profi t organizations that provide basic human needs services throughout Fort Bend County.

Collectively FBCCIS part-ners will share client data uti-lizing a software system en-titled “Caseworthy.”

Second Mile Mission Center, East Fort Bend Human Needs Ministry, Roenberg Richmond Helping Hands, Fort Bend Se-nior Meals on Wheels, and Katy Christian Ministries are among the initial collobarators in the project.

The George Foundation is

expected to announce the grant in May and in June a program coordinator will be hired. In August, back to school sup-plies event will be implemented through the collaborative data sharing system.

After the pilot testing of the program, the system will be further refi ned.

The computerized data col-lection platform captures client level information on the charac-teristics of individuals and fam-ilies and their needs, including basic human services and other social or medical needs.

Data sharing will allow col-laborative partners to determine the timeframe and frequency of services provided to those in need and a means for evaluat-

BIRDS OF FORT BEND. Cooper’s Hawk is a specialized hawk that can fl y at high speeds through heavily wooded areas. Short wings, a long tail, and fl ight agility allow this hawk to weave through wooded thickets at high speeds in pursuit of prey. The Cooper’s gives a new defi nition to the word hen-pecked. The male is smaller than the female and is quite solicitous. He builds the nest and pro-vides the female and chicks food while nesting. With other birds being the primary diet as well as the male being much smaller than the female, his caution is quite understandable. If one starts to stalk your feeders for other birds, simply remove the feeder for about 3 days.

The Sugar Land Skeeters is kicking off its second annual Kickball Classic March 28 at Constellation Field.

Companies and other groups are invited to register for the double-elimination tournament that benefi ts the Sugar Land Skeeters Foundation, which raises funds to help local dis-advantaged youth in the area.

Approximately $11,300 was raised in last year’s inaugural event.

“More than a dozen teams participated in last year’s event, helping to raise more money than we thought possible,” said Skeeters General Manager Chris Jones. “We hope to ex-ceed those numbers this year, as companies return and others

join us for a day of friendly and fun rivalry.”

Team registration is ongoing and sponsorships are still avail-able. Contact Kyle Dawson at [email protected] for details.

By BARBRA FULENWIDERAfter numerous ideas and ef-

forts by Missouri City to get more retail located on Texas Parkway, the key to making it happen may have fi nally been turned in the lock.

At Missouri City’s council meeting of Feb. 16, four council members voted in favor of sup-porting a resolution for relocating the Houston Community College (HCC) campus from Sienna to Texas Parkway.

Background information to council says the tracts of land ad-jacent to city hall would be where HCC will relocate to and that re-location is expected to be a sig-nifi cant catalyst for the economic vitality and redevelopment of one of Missouri City’s major thor-oughfares.

The resolution passed with yes votes from Mayor Allen Owen and Councilmen Don Smith, Jerry Wyatt, and Floyd Emery. Council Members Yolanda Ford and Chris Preston voted no and Mayor Pro Tem Robin Elackatt was ill so did not attend the meeting.

Joe Esch, Missouri City’s eco-nomic development director, told council, “Texas Parkway is a key element of our community and a long-standing goal of the city has been the upgrading of Texas Parkway. We are working with county to help with the relocation. We believe the relocation will be a signifi cant capital investment that will bring revitalization to Texas Parkway.

“The process is lengthy,” Esch explained, and said there are still a lot of steps to go through. “HCC is working to put the property next to city hall under contract.”

The economic development director went on to say that Mis-souri City supports the relocation and will work with all parties to make it occur. He said there are necessary changes that will have to be made to the Fort Bend TIRZ (Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone) where HCC is currently lo-cated. He said the city may have to help the county buy the existing property and building.

Esch said the city also wants to attract foundation money and if there’s a further need for more money, city council could consid-er an application up to $400,000. He said, “There’s an opportunity here for a $25 to $30 million capi-tal investment next to city hall. So far the HCC board has said they will take action to close on the property and move this forward. The new building plan would be combined with that. This is a great opportunity to see this level of capital improvement on Texas Parkway.”

The city’s support of the proj-ect may result in the move being a “major milestone.” Background information says that the city will continue to cooperate and support HCC in their effort to relocate the campus.

The resolution states that HCC wants to move its existing campus along Sienna Springs Boulevard to a location more convenient for HCC students, faculty and staff. It also states that Fort Bend County may buy a part of the Sienna cam-pus for a county annex building.

Further, it says that the county, HCC and Missouri City have been collaborating on a funding possi-bility, which would modify Rein-vestment Zone No. 3, where the Sienna campus is currently locat-ed, and facilitate funding for the county to buy the Sienna property.

Council Member Yolanda Ford asked what the city’s monetary participation might be, and Esch said, “Right now there’s no com-mitment of any city resources.” She then asked if the city had to give any funding in cash where that would come from. Esch said, “It’s our hope that the signifi cant capital investment we’ve made in the TIRZ would be suffi cient.”

Ford pointed out that HCC started out in a temporary build-ing on Cartwright Road in Mis-souri City, then moved to Sienna and now plans to move to Texas Parkway. Several times she asked that the city do its “due diligence” on this project. “What I’m look-ing for are the numbers when we go out to sell it to the community.

Stafford HCC never caused any kind of retail to happen along Murphy Road.”

Councilman Jerry Wyatt re-plied that the HCC location on Cartwright was a misnomer and was never intended to be a real service there. Mayor Allen Owen added that the city had the oppor-tunity to either get into HCC or Wharton junior college. “At that time HCC’s tax rate was seven cents per $100 valuation and Wharton’s was seventeen cents.”

Owen said at that time, Mis-souri City had an older popula-tion and the only classes held at the HCC Cartwright location were basic computer skills. Houston CC started in the Cartwright loca-tion because Missouri City citi-zens were paying taxes to HCC but had no college to show for it.

The mayor went on to say that “with the gracious working rela-tionship of Johnson Development, the city worked out a plan to put the campus where it is today. It was to be an open campus with multiple buildings.

“Unfortunately, the reality set in that Sienna people were send-ing their kids to four-year colleg-es. I don’t want to see that campus closed. I would rather move it. I think HCC owes us that because of the commitment we made when we started paying taxes for this campus. I’ve been pushing for it to be a school for medical techs and nurses. Stafford is a technical campus. We can make this work. It’s a great move,” Owen said.

“Don (Smith) has worked very hard on this,” Owen continued. “He’s our representative on the HCC committee. They (HCC) are going to move forward with it. We’re going to end up with a proj-ect next door to us with a town center concept and library next to the college. It’s what we’ve been talking about for years.”

Wyatt pointed out that “there are more people living in the Tex-as Parkway area than the whole of Stafford.”

Smith said he was trying to fi gure out what Ford’s urging of

One of the most beloved characters in American fi ction, Mark Twain’s Tom Sawyer, is playing at Fort Bend Theatre in The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, Feb. 13 – March 8, on Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 3 p.m. at 2815 N.

Houston Methodist Sugar Land Hospital’s Heart & Vas-cular Center offers the most advanced cardiac care pro-gram in the area – making it possible for residents to re-ceive advanced, sophisticated care close to home.

“We’ve built a comprehen-sive program that provides the same level of care and treatment a patient can expect from a medical center hospi-tal,” says B. Keith Ellis, M.D., board-certifi ed interventional cardiologist on staff at Hous-ton Methodist Sugar Land. “And we do so in an accessi-ble location that makes it easy for friends and family mem-bers to provide support while

a patient is being treated, and convenient for patients to re-turn to see their physician for follow-up care.”

The hospital’s Heart & Vas-cular Center provides a wide range of cardiology and car-diovascular surgical services, all performed by experienced, board-certifi ed specialists backed by the latest technol-ogy and state-of-the-art facili-ties.

Most importantly, the Heart & Vascular Center’s cardi-ologists, electrophysiologists, cardiovascular surgeons, car-diovascular anesthesiologists and other specialists take a collaborative, team approach to patient care – working in

concert to develop individual-ized treatment plans that can produce the best outcomes.

Heart & Vascular Center physicians specialize in:

•Cardiothoracic surgery – coronary bypass and valve re-pair procedures, including the most complex cases

•Interventional cardiology – invasive and non-invasive procedures, including coro-nary angioplasty, echocardio-grams, stress tests and more

•Radial artery approach to diagnostic imaging and coro-nary angioplasty. This tech-nique provides a safer alterna-tive to the traditional femoral artery (groin) access that also allows for early ambulation.

interventional procedures •Stroke prevention, hyper-

Heart & Vascular Center physicians often collaborate to provide hybrid coronary inter-vention for patients with dou-ble- or triple-vessel coronary artery disease. The hybrid approach includes both angio-plasty and minimally invasive bypass surgery performed in the same specially designed operating room, one after the other. Compared with the tra-ditional approach of perform-ing each procedure separately over the span of several days, the combined intervention is much less stressful on the pa-tient’s heart and often leads to quicker recoveries and less time in the hospital.

“Many people don’t realize that Houston Methodist Sugar Land is the only institution in the area to have 24-hours-a-day, seven-days-a-week cov-erage with both interventional cardiologists and cardiac sur-geons,” says Uttam Tripathy, M.D., board-certifi ed car-

diothoracic surgeon on staff at Houston Methodist Sugar Land. “When a patient pres-ents here, we are prepared to respond immediately to pro-vide the proper care any time of the day or night.”

In fact, Houston Methodist Sugar Land is an accredited Chest Pain Center – a designa-tion earned from the National Society of Chest Pain Centers that is reserved for hospitals that demonstrate the highest level of expertise in treating heart attack patients. Heart at-tack patients brought to Hous-ton Methodist Sugar Land are typically treated in the hos-pital’s modern Cath Lab in less than an hour after arrival, which is well below the na-tional standard of 90 minutes.

The center’s heart team, a multidisciplinary group that oversees care, meets regularly to discuss complex cases and develop individualized plans for patients.

“The collaborative ap-proach here is a real benefi t to patients, because our phy-sicians share information and ideas and really work as a team to ensure that we are giv-ing patients the best possible opportunity for a successful outcome,” says Jennifer Paz-derny, Heart & Vascular Cen-ter nurse navigator. “Our heart team puts in a lot of extra time to review and discuss cases, but the end result is defi nitely

worth it.”Once patients enter the pro-

gram, the Heart & Vascular Center provides a care “navi-gator” who assists in pre-opand post-op education andsupport, helping patients andtheir family members under-stand their individual proce-dures and answering questionsas needed.

It’s not uncommon for Houston Methodist SugarLand physicians to hear frompatients who don’t realize thatthe Heart & Vascular Centerregularly handles even themost complex cardiac surger-ies and other procedures.

“We continue to bring theservices once only available inthe medical center to Fort Bendand surrounding counties,”says Dr. Ellis. “We have anexcellent team of experienced, knowledgeable physicians andthe best facilities and technol-ogy, so it’s a natural evolutionthat provides a great deal of value to our patients.”

By SESHADRI KUMARKathryn Lynn Wingo, ex-

wife of former Sugar Land Mayor David G. Wallace, has fi led a counter-petition to Wallace’s petition to modify/reduce or terminate spousal maintenance.

Wallace and Wingo entered into an agreement incident to Final Decree of Divorce on Sept. 9, 2013. Part of the agreement was Wallace’s obli-gation to pay alimony, pursu-ant to the agreed upon terms.

The language clearly speci-fi es it as “contractual alimo-ny.”

In spite of the clear lan-guage of underlying facts that at no time did the court order alimony as per applicable stat-ute, Wallace has fi led “a com-pletely baseless and frivolous petition,” according to Wingo.

Wingo’s attorney fi led her answer on Feb. 13 at the 328th district court in Fort Bend County.

Wallace’s petition has no merit because the alimony is-sue is contractual, not court ordered. The court cannot re-duce, or terminate the terms of the agreed, contractual alimo-ny, Wingo said in her answer.

Because Kathy Wingo had to hire counsel to defend the “baseless petition” and will in

the future incur attorney’s fees and expenses, she is entitled to recover the cost from Wal-lace, she said.

Wallace in his petition said he had no means of paying the alimony, (after resigning from Wallace Bajjali Devel-opment Partners.)

Meanwhile, Wallace him-self has fi led a response to the lawsuit fi led by the receiver for Kaleta Capital Manage-ment vs Wallace, Biz Radio and others in the U.S. federal court, where Wallace has de-faulted in paying the settle-ment amount of $1.5 million. Wallace generally denied ev-ery allegation made by the re-ceiver Thomas L. Taylor.

Addie Heyliger says she is running for Fort Bend ISD School Board Member Posi-tion 6 with the sole purpose to become an advocate for educational excellence in Fort Bend County.

The district’s reputation for great schools lured Addie to the county 13 years ago.

As the proud parent of sons Milton and Alex (who are enrolled in Fort Bend schools), Addie is actively involved in her children’s education and can often be seen on their cam-puses supporting the schools. She’s a parent who knows and understands the needs for exceptional schools.

Addie has an extensive track record for dedication and com-munity leadership. Not only is she a United Way Young Leader, but she also supports a nonprofi t’s STEM Academy to promote STEM-related studies for area youth.

She has held numerous lead-ership roles in all of her service organizations. Addie is an ac-tive member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.; The Links, Inc.; and the Missouri City Baptist Church. She has previ-ously served as a board member for the Gulf Coast Warriors or-

Part 1 crimes in Sugar Land decreased 12.75 percent last year while the City’s fi ve-year trend shows an overall decrease of more than 26 percent. The results were included in the Sugar Land Police Department’s 2014 Annual Report and placed Sugar Land’s crime rate at a 20-year historic low.

Last year, Sugar Land was named the third safest city in Texas and the 19th safest city in the nation, a distinction based on an analysis of FBI crime statistics.

Part 1 crimes include assault, auto theft, burglary, homicide, theft, robbery and auto burglary.

The most recent Part 1 data shows Sugar Land’s overall crime rate is nearly 45 percent and 35 percent below the state and national averages, respectively. The City’s violent crime rate compares even better at more than 71 percent and 69 percent below the state and national averages, respectively.

Vehicle burglaries have long been an SLPD focus, one that resulted in a 38 percent decrease last year and a drop of more than 46 percent since 2010.

Criminal investigations in Sugar Land continue to yield posi-tive results. More than 62 percent of violent crimes were cleared, compared to the state and national averages of 45 percent and 48 percent, respectively.

Sugar Land Police Chief Doug Brinkley credits a strong police presence, community partnerships, public education, a commit-ment to technology, training and departmental leadership for Sugar Land’s low crime rate.

“Despite these strong results, we will remain proactive and continue our focus on past priorities,” said Brinkley. “This will include continued resources such as a special impact team to ad-dress burglaries and educational efforts intended to ensure our citizens remain safe.”

Priorities during 2015 will include:•residential, commercial and vehicle burglaries;•a focus on safe streets and intersections; and•working toward the possible development of a public safety

training facility. “We are committed to providing exceptional public safety

services and taking a leadership role in building community part-nerships,” said Brinkley. “It’s important for us to stay connected to the community, which enables us to work together to create a safe environment to live and work.”

Stuart Jackson, a home and business owner in Fort Bend ISD for more than 20 years is run-ning for Fort Bend Independent School District Trustee Posi-tion #6 because he believes his experience within the business community and within FBISD is needed to empower parents with more local control.

Jackson, a second generation Eagle Scout is actively involved in his community, coaching baseball and football teams, offi ciating at swimming meets and volunteering at his chil-dren’s schools. All three of his children were born and raised in Fort Bend County and are being educated within the exemplary FBISD school system. His el-dest daughter is attending the Global Studies Academy at Cle-ments High School, his middle daughter is attending the GT Academy at Quail Valley Middle School and his son is attending Baines Middle School in Sienna Plantation.

He was elected to serve as vice president of his local municipal utility district and is currently sitting on a FBISD organized academic committee. Through his volunteer efforts he has effected positive changes within his community and wish-es to continue these efforts as a trustee of FBISD.

The cornerstone to Jackson’s platform is the empowerment of parents through predictable policies and more local decision-making. He recognizes that deci-sions made at the board level in a district as economically and eth-nically diverse as FBISD, may be marginally effective and fi scally unsound at some campuses, and therefore he will support the empowerment of local school administrations and teachers, to engage parents and students when determining the optimal programs for their school.

Jackson has a degree in En-gineering and has worked in more than 25 countries during his career. He owns a successful software company with offi ces in Sugar Land. As a small business owner he knows the need to plan long-term and constantly adjust as changes in the economy dic-tate. He would like to bring this type of continuous monitoring and refi nement to FBISD, and knows that the result would be more cost-effective planning and less disruptive policy changes.

Jackson’s policies are de-signed to empower parents and educators with the ability to design programs and curricu-lum that challenges all students within the district to achieve their dreams. He expects his policies would result in a more challenging educational system that would ultimately lead to a more fi scally sound, responsive and safe learning environment for all students.

As a trustee, Jackson will openly engage with educators, parents, tax payers, business owners and students in open and honest discussions on all mat-ters related to the betterment of our school district. Visit www.votestuartjackson.com

The collaborative project will specify eligibility re-quirements of the partners providing assistance, elimi-nating repetitive research and the frustration of unsuccessful referrals.

The collaboration will also lay the foundation for a net-work that will coordinate and provide specialized services, such as: school supplies/back-packs for children, job search assistance for parents, or food for the elderly on a county-wide basis.

This will eliminate con-fusion for families seeking services, avoid duplication of services to, and provide a streamlined process for indi-viduals, churches, businesses and others wishing to donate supplies and assist in their dis-tribution to those in need.

The coordinated network of specialized service providers will facilitate the delivery of services in an effi cient and ef-fective manner.

The collaborative will hire one full time program coordi-nator to coordinate data col-lection, identify duplication of services, interact with partner staff, and coordinate cross-agency events.

The FBCCIS will address the utilization and coordina-tion of social services pro-vision to residents in need, within Fort Bend County.

The collaborative will for-malize and enhance existing referral networks, providing better background informa-tion, and tracking services provision to families seeking assistance from the various collaborative partners.

The collaborative will in-clude all residents of Fort Bend County who have re-quested services from FBC-CIS partners.

Data shared among part-ners will include but is not limited to: name (fi rst and last), gender, address, .zip code, date of birth, social se-curity number; names, gen-

ders, and ages of household members; date of last service; type of services provided; any special needs I issues, veteran status; household income; and an ongoing assessment of ser-vices needed. All partners will sign a statement of confi denti-ality and clients will be asked to sign a statement to release information to partnering or-ganizations.

Fort Bend County Social Services will be the lead agen-cy and fi duciary agent for the grant.

An executive committee composed of all Executive Directors or CEOs of the col-laborative agencies and part-nering organizations will be responsible for the planning and implementation of this project.

The executive committee has met several times prior to the writing of this grant to de-velop this system.

The program coordinator for this project (new position) will report to the Director of Fort Bend County Social Services;and will work close-ly with all partners to coordi-nate the implementation of the Fort Bend County Collabora-tive Information System.

Each partner is suitable for this project because the part-ners have mutual goals and shared values in providing for basic human needs to the resi-dents of Fort Bend County.

The partners have worked hand in hand to meet the needs of Fort Bend County residents over many years. In instances when the needs of clients can-not be met completely by one organization, another partner can step in.

The organizations have of-ten joined together to ensure the successful outcome of cli-ents served.

The partner organizations have maintained open and frequent communication, es-tablished formal and informal communications among ad-ministrators, while front line staff have developed mutual respect for one another to ac-complish their shared goals and outcomes.

Stuart Jackson

Jenny Bailey

Incumbent Jenny Bailey has filed for re-election to tPosition 6 of FBISD board of trustees. Two others, Stuart Jackson and Addie Heyligs, have also fi led for the same position.

For Position 2 of the board, incumbent Grayle James is the only candidate who has fi led so far.

Following are the excerpts of the candidates’ position on why they are seeking election to the school board, in the contested race.

Fort Bend ISD Board Sec-retary Jenny Bailey has fi led for re-election to retain her Position 6 seat in the upcoming May 9th election.

“What a difference a first term can make in FBISD,” Bailey asserted. “Three years ago I stated that our district needed to bring in new lead-ership, promote effi cient use of resources, and improve employee morale.”

Consequently, the Board ap-proved the hiring of Dr. Charles Dupre as the new superinten-dent in 2013. “He brought in a new leadership team that has presented fresh ideas focused on student achievement and facility improvements,” Bailey said. “The community and employees have responded positively to his hiring.”

Bailey cited several ac-complishments during her fi rst term, which included saving nearly $10 million by suspend-ing the iAchieve Program, ap-proving a pay raise to teachers and staff, conducting an em-ployee survey about working conditions, and switching the

employee healthcare provider to Aetna.

She also approved a policy that allows high school stu-dents to continue in a fi ne arts or sports program without negatively hurting their GPAs. Other accomplishments were eliminating the unsuccessful K-6 initiative and supporting the $484 million bond refer-endum that was approved by 75 percent of the voters in the district.

“I desire to be re-elected so I can continue to promote the positive changes occurring in FBISD,” Bailey said. “Prog-ress is good. Let’s keep the forward momentum going.”

Jenny and her husband, Bob, have two sons enrolled in FBISD schools, and they have lived in Missouri City for al-most 17 years.

The election for the FBISD Board of Trustees is Saturday, May 9. Early voting is April 27 through May 5.

State of the Economy2014 was mostly a year of more of the same. Interest rates remained low, unemploy-ment fell, and debt continued to rise. While it does appear that the economy continues to grow, a prolonged recession in energy could spell trouble for an economy that still needs the stimulus of low interest rates. Following is a summary of four major components of the US economy:

EmploymentThe unemployment rate

reached a new fi ve-year low of 5.6 percent in December. This is the fi rst time since the fi nancial crisis in 2008 that unemployment has fallen be-low 6 percent.

Of some concern is that a large portion of the gains in employment have been due to the boom in the energy sector. The fi ve largest oil and gas producing states account for all of the country’s employ-ment growth since 2010. If energy prices remain at low levels for an extended period, the unemployment rate will likely tick up, unless the rest of the economy can pick up the slack.

Infl ationThe infl ation rate for 2014

was 0.8 percent, the lowest measure since the defl ation (or falling prices) in 2009, due to the housing crisis. As you would expect from watching prices at the pump, energy prices fell last year, most of which occurred in the last three months. In con-trast, food prices were up 3.4 percent, which represents the largest increase since Febru-ary 2012.

One of the causes of low infl ation last year was the rise in the value of the dollar rela-tive to other world currencies. For example, the euro fell from $1.40 in early May 2014 to $1.12 in January 2015, or a 20 percent rise in the value of the US dollar. As the dol-lar strengthened, it became

cheaper for us to buy foreign goods and services.

Gross Domestic Product

Real GDP (or the value of the production of goods and services adjusted for infl a-tion) rose at an annual rate of 5 percent in the third quarter of 2014. This is the highest growth rate seen for the last fi ve years. One reason for this increase was higher federal government spending, which helped to offset declining growth rates in private invest-ments and exports.

DebtThe national debt of the US

government currently sits at a record $18.1 trillion, and will likely continue to grow with an estimated $468 billion defi -cit for 2015. The debt is man-ageable for now, due to very low interest rates, but if rates go up, the cost of paying inter-est on the debt would consume a larger portion of federal ex-penses.

Total debt, which includes households, businesses, and national/state/local govern-ment debt, rose to more than $59 trillion.

ConclusionWhile the economy appears

to be on track, there are po-tential clouds on the horizon due to the slack in oil and gas

State of the economy

prices and the growing supply of public debt. A prolonged recession in the energy sec-tor would have a signifi cant impact on the Greater Hous-ton Area and the entire US economy.

Dear constituents, Today I will be discussing

the progress we have made in the Texas House Appropria-tions Committee. We are off to a good start after the fi rst two weeks of hearings. The House Public Health Com-mittee also had its fi rst meet-ing. As a member of this crit-ically important committee that deals with the healthcare issues of all Texans, I will be working with my colleagues to enact legislation that will benefi t and support the peo-ple of Fort Bend County and Texas in general. However, my fi rst thought is to begin by thanking you, our constit-uents, friends and residents of Fort Bend County, for reading the third installment of our District 26 Chat.

House Appropriations Committee

The House Appropria-tions Committee is one of the most infl uential committees in the Texas legislature. We are Constitutionally respon-sible for setting the state’s balanced budget for the next two years, and it is truly a team effort to get everyone together and moving forward toward this goal. It is my per-sonal goal to make sure that throughout this budgetary process, we as a state contin-ue to be fi scally responsible while still funding the essen-tial pieces of our government and providing opportunities for and taking care of Texans.

The House Appropriations Committee is also broken down into four subcommit-tees and I have been appoint-ed to serve as Vice Chairman of the subcommittee that deals directly with Articles I, IV and V of budget.

Article I - General Government

We have begun discuss-ing the issues covering the

Employee Retirement System and the Texas Veterans Com-mission.

I have a strong commitment to improving the fi nancial standing of the state’s retire-ment program and maintain-ing health insurance benefi ts, both of which are vitally im-portant to state employees and retirees.

Although the fund is cur-rently out of balance, this is a fi xable issue that will most certainly have a robust con-versation. Along with this is-sue, we are also working on the Hazlewood Exemption for our veterans. Under this ex-emption, Texas colleges and universities waive tuition and fees for eligible veterans and in some instances the veteran’s children. I realize the impor-tance of this legislation, and also see the possible fi nancial implications it has on the state. I am working diligently to keep Hazlewood for our vet-erans, while still looking out for the fi nancial future of the state. We will approach this solution from a collaborative perspective that helps us both support our veterans and make sure that the state of Texas has the means to continue being fi scally responsible and fi nan-cially fl exible.

Article IV - Judiciary Article IV of the budget

deals directly with Texans’ ac-cess to justice. Texas Supreme Court Chief Justice Nathan Hecht came to the Capitol last

Wednesday and pressed for law makers to work on provid-ing better access to legal aid for veterans and also encour-aged the legislature to contin-ue working on truancy reform for students. Hecht maintained that “too often, servicemen and women return from duty to fi nd benefi ts delayed, fami-lies struggling, jobs scarce, homes in foreclosure and debt collectors at the door. These enemies at home can be as real a threat to a veteran’s survival as the enemies faced in the fi eld.” As a veteran, I person-ally understand this problem and am working diligently to support our veterans in every way I can. It is my strong be-lief that we need to do what we can for those who have risked their lives protecting us. I will be doing what I can to ensure that our veterans are taken care of for the foreseeable future. Article V- Public Safety and

Criminal Justice On Article V of the House

appropriations bill, we have begun discussing several rec-ommendations pertaining to border security. Before the committee, the Major General of the Texas Military Forces spoke about the Texas Na-tional Guard’s presence at the border. We will continue to work with the Department of Public Safety (DPS) and Texas Military Forces in our efforts to make our borders safe and secure for all Texas residents. While we have spent a consid-erable amount of money doing this, I will ensure that we will continue putting the safety of our residents fi rst.

Looking Ahead Next week, we will contin-

ue working in our appropria-tions subcommittee meetings and I look forward to continue creating a budget for the state of Texas. As I work on the Appropriations committee, I intend to bring a continued fo-cus on fi scal responsibility and fi nancial fl exibility to the state of Texas.

It is an honor to serve you in the Texas House...very best,

—Rick Miller

By BARBARA FULENWIDERThe 2015 Dodge Journey

Crossroad is a four-door cross-over with liftgate that features a rugged, capable look plus provides fi ve years of Siri-usXM traffi c and travel link service via Uconnect’s 8.4-inch touchscreen.

Leather seats with sport mesh inserts, 19-inch hyper black aluminum wheels, plati-num chrome accents on the front and rear fascias, lower side sills, roof rack and dark-tinted headlamps and tail lamps all work together to give the Crossroad a rugged appearance.

Dodge describes their Jour-ney Crossroad as the Swiss army knife of crossovers be-cause it comes with either a four- or six-cylinder engine, seats fi ve- or seven-passen-gers and has front or all-wheel drive, which features an on-demand system that provides added traction when needed, and enhanced fuel economy when not.

Along with the an 8.4-inch touchscreen, other Crossroad standard features include push-button start, heated steering wheel, available fold-fl at seats, second-row in-fl oor storage and front-passenger in-seat storage, the Journey is a true utility infi elder.

The 2015 Dodge Jour-ney is available in American Value Package (AVP), SE, SXT, Crossroad, Limited and R/T trim levels, and starts at a manufacturer’s suggested price of $19,995 (excluding $995 destination fee).

The Journey AVP, SE, SXT and Crossroad are pow-ered by a standard 2.4-liter 16-valve DOHC four-cylinder engine, which produces 173 horsepower and 166 lb.-ft. of torque, linked to a four-speed automatic transmission. This four-cylinder engine deliv-ers 26 miles per gallon on the highway.

The 3.6-liter V-6 engine, optional on SXT and Cross-road and standard on Limited and R/T models and all-wheel drive models, makes a best-in-class 283 horsepower and 260 lb.-ft. of torque and is mated to a six-speed automatic trans-mission. The Pentastar V-6 engine has been recognized as one of “Ward’s 10 Best Engines” for three years in a row. In addition to the pow-er it makes, it gets up to 25 mpg on the highway. Dodge backs its Journeys with a fi ve-year/100,000-mile limited powertrain warranty.

Inside the Dodge Journey Crossroad are levels of refi ne-ment that start with a one-piece soft-touch instrument. A standard Electronic Vehicle Information Center sits in the center of the gauge cluster, which has a backlit full-color display. The cushioned center console armrest hides a large center storage bin with a 12-volt outlet and USB port. The steering wheel includes cruise and radio controls.

Other standard features on the Journey Crossroad that are uncommon to other ve-hicles in its segment include a standard 4.3-inch Ucon-nect touchscreen radio, power heated and fold-away mirrors, seven air bags, dual-zone cli-mate control and illuminated cup holders. The Uconnect

touchscreen command center controls everything from navi-gation to voice-command mu-sic selections to the ability to check fuel prices. Four Ucon-nect models are available.

More standard equipment on all Dodge Journey models include multistage front pas-senger air bags, active head restraints, electronic stabil-ity control with all-speed traction control, electronic roll mitigation and brake as-sist, driver-side knee blocker air bag, side-curtain air bags covering all three rows, front seat-mounted side air bags, electronic stability control, traction control, four-wheel anti-lock brakes, electronic-roll mitigation, LATCH child seat anchor system and trailer-sway control are standard on all Dodge Journey models.

Options on the Crossroad include all-wheel drive, fl ex-ible seating group, power sun-roof; second-row integrated child booster seats; Uconnect voice command with Blue-tooth package, Uconnect web by Mopar, trailer tow prep group with four-pin connec-tor, engine block heater and Mopar all weather group. The Crossroad is between the SXT and Limited models.

I like the ride and size of the Dodge Journey Crossroad, the power the V6 provides and the roominess and thoughtful application of storage spaces. If you’re in the market for a crossover vehicle, defi nitely test drive the Journey Cross-road before you buy.

This McFarland is in Califor-nia but the moviemakers wanted to ensure that you get the point that this is a story of Americana. Work hard, obey your parents, go to school, and run fast when Coach tells you to do it, and you, too, will achieve the American Dream.

McFarland, CA, circa 1987 is a small town in the mountains of California and is dominated by Hispanic farm workers who work at gathering the local pro-duce; hence the name “pickers.” Even the young children get up at 4:00 a.m, long before school opens, put in grueling hours in the fi elds for little pay, and then attend their individual schools in the McFarland school system.

Then along comes Coach Jim White (Kevin Costner), freshly fi red from a job in the Mid-West for abusive behavior toward one of his high school football play-ers. Coach White is referred to by his McFarland students as “White” or “Blanco” as he is a distinct minority and acts very “White.” The kids slowly warm up to the coach who is a fi sh out of water, but he needs the job so he and his wife (Maria Bello) and two daughters com-mit to hang in there and make the best of it. Coach White has anger issues and trouble getting along with the current McFar-land football coach so he ends up teaching PE, Physical Sci-ence, and coaching track/cross country.

The teenage boys want to know more about cross country; they can run fast for long dis-tances, but there has never been a cross-country running team at McFarland. Costner exhib-

its his patience and charm as the confl icted Coach White with that crooked smile and inviting eyes to woo the potential members of the team. Hands in his pocket or holding a clipboard in that aw-shucks demeanor that has served Costner, 60, for his entire career.

Coach explains to the audi-ence that the cross country team consists of seven members and they compete as a unit. And that includes Danny (Ramiro Ro-driquez), the slightly overweight and slower older Diaz brother. Running many miles on natural terrain; up and down steep hills is routine.

The cadre of actors who played

the seven runners are delightful, polite, and appropriately amiable. Just like Disney likes it. I thought about the legacy of Walt Disney and the seemingly hundreds of Disney movies gifted to us. This is a classic Disney movie. Sweet story (based on true events), no cussing or sex and a happy end-ing. Oops, I wasn’t supposed to tell you that. Oh come on, this is Disney. Let’s just say that this cross-country team has some suc-cess. The offi cial rating is PG, but it’s pretty darn close to a G. This is Disney-clean and feel-good from start to fi nish.

With more than 700 new homes sold in Riverstone last year, the Realtors who had the most sales in the Fort Bend de-velopment all saw double-digit sales by the close of 2014.

Kunal Seth with RE/MAX Fine Properties was the top-selling Realtor in Riverstone in 2014, selling 25 new homes throughout the year.

Following close behind was JoJo Tharayil with Excel Re-alty Co., who posted 21 sales in Riverstone during 2014. Stan-ley Mani of Stanley John, LLC, sold 20 new homes in River-stone last year and Babu Joseph with Philip Abraham and Com-pany was the development’s fourth-ranked Realtor, with 17 new-home sales in 2014.

“Realtors understand the perfect package that Riverstone offers buyers, with a prime Fort Bend location, elegant homes, top schools and impressive amenities,” said Trey Reichert, vice president and general man-ager of Riverstone.

“Realtors were involved with more than 80 percent of the new-home sales in River-stone last year and are an inte-gral part of our record-breaking success.”

Riverstone is the top-selling master-planned community in Texas for a second consecutive year. In addition, the develop-ment is ranked No. 4 among the nation’s top-selling com-munities by two independent research fi rms, John Burns Real Estate Consulting and

Robert Charles Lesser & Co. (RCLCO).

“Riverstone is the best com-munity in Texas,” said Seth.

“The excellent amenities, great schools and cultural diversity make this community feel en-gaged, functional and beauti-ful. These are just some of the reasons why our clients love to live in Riverstone.”

Nineteen builders offer de-signs in Riverstone, with pric-es from the $300,000s to the millions.

Residents enjoy highly re-garded Fort Bend schools and a prime location on Highway 6 between Highway 59 and the Fort Bend Parkway.

Riverstone also offers an array of amenities, including three pools, a fi tness center, dog park, playgrounds, trails, tennis, splash pad and a luxu-rious clubhouse. For more information on Riverstone, a project of The Johnson Devel-opment Corp., visit www.riv-erstone.com.

Kunal Seth with RE/MAX Fine Properties is the top-

selling Realtor in Riverstone for 2014.

ure out what Ford’s urging of more city due diligence meant. He said, “We can’t dictate the operations of anything. As far as the city is concerned, it makes good sense. The target demographics for HCC is in this area right here. It makes good sense to move it over here. The president of HCC feels very strongly about this because of the demographics in this area.

“I’d like to see what else the

city has to do or needs to do for due diligence. We are put-ting numbers together for the economic development stand-point. We can’t predict any-thing but it sure looks good,” Smith said.

Owen concluded that agen-da item by urging council to move ahead on it. “I don’t want HCC to sit down there with an empty building. We’ll end up with a county facility and no college and still be paying the taxes.” With that council voted to support HCC’s move to Texas Parkway.
