Five candidates will be on the ballot for the special election Jan. 6 to fill
the Texas House District 17 seat being
vacated by Tim Kleinschmidt.
Lockhart Republican John Cyrier
this week announced his candidacy
for the seat, and the Secretary of

Landmark watering hole

Templin Saloon re-opens
By DAVE MUNDY
A long dry spell came to an end in

Gonzales Friday, and rain had nothing to
do with it.
The Templin Saloon and St. Paul Pizzeria celebrated its grand re-opening
by selling its first mixed drink to Tony
Hanzalik Jr., the son of the last owner of
the landmark Gonzales watering-hole on
St. Paul St.
While the saloon, which closed in 1999
Gonzales
following the passing of Anton Tony
Hanzalik, was long known as the place to
hang out, drink beer and play dominos,
its been even longer since liquor was last
sold there.
Its been a long dry spell, noted
Hanzalik, who said the last time mixed
drinks were served on the premises was
the end of prohibition in 1933.

Warning issued on
IRS phone scam

Gonzales County residents should be wary of

attempted phone scams
during the holiday season,
and Sheriff Glenn Sachtleben is warning the public
that a particularly aggressive scam appears to have
returned to the area.
The Gonzales County
Sheriff s Office has gotten
numerous calls regarding
phone calls to citizens from
someone purporting to be
from the Internal Revenue
Service. The caller usually
Gonzales Co.
identifies himself as agent
so-and-so from the IRS
and immediately starts with
this is the last call you receive etc., a news release
from the Sheriff s Department notes.
DO NOT respond to
these calls with money or
information about you or
your family. They are a renewed use of a scam that
has been around for some
time and it is just that a
SCAM.

expect and deserve, Kolkhorst said. As State Senator,
my goals will be simple. Im
going to work hard to protect and preserve the rights

freedom, jobs and prosperity and my intention is to
keep our state strong and
free for our children and

Want better candidates? Start funding them now
How often do we repeat the

phrase Vote the bums out!
and then turn right around and
elect the same bums to office?
Its one of the oddities of American politics: the publics approval
rating of Congress hovers near
10 percent yet 95 percent of
the time, incumbents seeking reelection win easily.
Its particularly frustrating for
voters such as we grassroots/
Tea Party types: well find a solid
conservative candidate, someone
who embraces fiscal conservatism, social responsibility and has
a solid grasp on how the Constitution is designed to LIMIT government, not establish it.
And no matter how enthusiastically we embrace that candidate, he or she gets drummed.
We wind up having to cast a vote
in the general election which is
effectively voting for the lesser of
two evils.
It boils down to, more often
than not, a matter of money. Incumbents have it, challengers do
not.
Thats something one political
consultant is hoping to change.
So at this point its very obvi-

ous to everyone that the hold
your nose and vote for them
anyway and then hold their feet
to the fire approach is an utter failure, says Brett Rogers of
Dickinson. The only solution is
to replace them. Thats it. Thats
all you have.
Rogers was one of the advisors
to the U.S. Senate primary campaign of Dwayne Stovall last year,
and also aided in the Congressional campaign of Larry Smith.
He says the problem is that
many grassroots-candidate supporters dont take into account is
that modern campaigns involve a
whole lot more than just speaking
to the Rotary Club and knocking
on a few doors. Those $10 and
$20 contributions you make are
welcome, but its almost insignifi-
cant compared to the amount of

cash an incumbent can raise.
All too often, he says, people
looking for a reform candidate
to unseat an incumbent dont get
involved in the race until its almost over and thats what has
to change.
Find and fund the right challenger starting right now so
that you can have the representation you need, he says. If you remove yourself from the process of
finding and funding a challenger
because youre concerned that
you might get burned in choosing a replacement, then youve
already chosen for the incumbent
to be re-elected.
What Rogers has proposed is
that individuals commit to setting aside $25 a month for use in
supporting a grass-roots reform
candidate even before any candidates have been announced.
We pay money every month
for frivolous things Netflix,
lotto tickets, Starbucks ... so ask
yourself: whats freedom worth?
Rogers asks. Candidates need
enough money to market themselves and convince a majority of
voters that they will listen to US,
and not to special interests, when

in office.
What if you start saving money and set aside $25 monthly so
that you can give to the right
grassroots candidate later? he
asks. If you do youll save your
own money until youre ready to
help the right candidate win elections.
It doesnt sound like a whole
lot of money for an individual,
but the math adds up real quick.
An individual can raise $300 to
donate to the campaign of a solid
challenger. If just 350 people save
that in one year, they can raise
$105,000 and that can give a
grassroots candidate in a congressional district or state district
a fighting chance.
Dave Brat (in Virginia) beat
Eric Cantor, and he did it with
just $100,000, Rogers notes. We
must boost our candidates to a
level that voters take their candidacy seriously.
As someone who recently ran
a district-wide campaign for the
State Board of Education on a
total of about $5,000, I can tell
you from first-hand experience
the need for the cash. Todays
news media does not carry out

its responsibility to inform the
public, especially in down-ballot
statewide races like the SBOE
and judgeships. Advertising is
the only way to reach voters, and
if you aint got the cash, you cant
advertise.
Believe me, the establishment
looks down on you when youre
not a moneyed candidate.
Everyone measures the credibility of a campaign by the money
it raises, Rogers says. It doesnt
have to compete dollar for dollar, but enough has to be raised to
reach and earn the trust of a winning majority.
Many conservatives feel betrayed by the actions of incumbents such as Sen. John Cornyn.
Rogers says if we want a change,
we cant wait until the next election day to get active.
For everyone who got on the
bus that ran us over, its OUR JOB
to find the challengers and fund
them to replace the jerks who did
this to us, he says. You cannot
throw the bums out unless you
get behind and wholeheartedly
support better candidates in the
primary.
Cruz maneuvering was

to support Constitution
A week ago, as the Senate prepared to
leave for their weekend, Texas Senator
Ted Cruz along with Senator Mike Lee
(R-UT) and Jeff Sessions (R-AL) created an uproar with their parliamentery
manuevering. Many GOP senators were
angered and joined Democrats in vilifying Cruz. So what really?
The facts are these. Democrat Sen.
Harry Reid (D-NV) worked hard to
prevent a vote on President Obamas illegal executive amnesty. He was trying
to protect President Obamas executive
amnesty for roughly five million people
here illegally, ignoring overwhelmingly
will of voters in November. This amnesty
was done by executive fiat, directly contrary to federal immigration law and to
the Constitution. The law prohibits issuing work authorizations to those here
illegally, and the Constitution prohibits
the president from ignoring federal laws
passed by Congress.
No president can defy federal law or
the Constitution. In Texas sport terms,
all teams must go 10 yards for a first
down, and not choose to go only 5 yards
because they want to. You cant change
rules or laws arbitrarily. Congress had

to respond to this constitutional crisis.

The showdown came when the House
passed the so-called CRomnibus bill,
funding the federal government to the
tune of $1.1 trillion. The Senate quickly
took it up, but Cruz and his allies wanted a simple up or down vote on defunding executive amnesty to publicly show
the will of the people and the defiance
of the President.
Republican leadership said there
would be a likely vote, but Reid apparently changed his mind to protect
Obama. Cruz and allies used the Senate
rules to try to force the vote, but Reid
forced the Senate to come back Saturday to move forward a series of Obama
nominations.
Some critics have accused Cruz of facilitating these Obama nominations by
fighting amnesty, but its highly likely
Reid would have done the exact same
thing on Monday and Tuesday, with the
very same result.
According to sources in D.C., Reid accepted Cruz offer to take up the CRomnibus along with a vote on amnesty
early on Saturday, but the other Senate Democrats vetoed his agreement.
Finally, late Saturday night, Cruz and
his allies forced a vote on the constitutionality of executive amnesty. Had they
waited until Monday, Reid could have
held the floor and blocked the vote, and
the American people would not know
who stood where on Obamas unconstitutional actions.
As a result, every single Senate Democrat is now on the record in support
of President Obamas illegal amnesty,
and the voters can see it. Also, 22 of 45
Republicans voted in support of Cruz
constitutional point of order but unfortunately 23 GOP senators will need
to explain their vote to the folks back
home, including Senator Cornyn of
Texas.
Americans voters representatives
in D.C. must defend the document
that keeps us freethe Constitution.
Obamas amnesty was illegal and our
representatives must not be silent. Today Obama ignores this law, tomorrow
it is another law. Rather than attacking
Senator Cruz, we should honor him as
an American hero for doing his part to
save our republic.
Feinsteins witch hunt

of CIA was a travesty
The Senate Intelligence Committee

spent roughly $50 million on its investigation into the CIA and apparently couldnt
find Michael Haydens phone number.
The committee portrays Gen. Hayden,
the former CIA director, as a liar who
deceived Congress about the agencys interrogation program, yet the committee
couldnt be bothered to interview him.
Thats because the committee, led by
California Democrat Dianne Feinstein,
didnt bother to interview anyone. The
committee didnt want to include anything that might significantly complicate
its cartoonish depiction of a CIA that misled everyone so it could maintain a secret
prison system for the hell of it.
The Feinstein report scores some
points. It makes plain that the CIA program wasnt adequately controlled, especially at the beginning, that it went too far,
and that the agency became too invested
in defending it.
But the thrust of the report is devoted
to the proposition that torture, or harsh
interrogation, never works. This is important to critics of the CIA program because
they are almost never willing to say that
torture is wrong and that we should never
do it -- even if it sometimes works and potentially saves lives. They lack the moral
conviction to make their case solely on
principle.
Even though its executive summary
runs more than 500 pages, the report
lacks basic context, specifically an account of the post-Sept. 11 environment in
which nearly everyone expected another
attack and wanted to do everything possible to avoid it. This is why the likes of
the impeccably liberal Jay Rockefeller,
vice chairman of the Senate Intelligence
Committee, could say after we captured
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed in 2003 that
we should be very, very tough with him.
The harsh methods that the CIA adGeorge Rodriguez is host on RagingE- opted dont, in isolation, shock the conlephantsRadio.com and South Texas science. Theres nothing, for instance,

about throwing someone up against a

flexible wall, grabbing and shaking him,
keeping him in a tight space or slapping
him that is clearly out of bounds.
It is cumulatively, over an extended period -- as with Abu Zubaydah -- that the
methods take on a different complexion.
Reasonable people can disagree about
whether we went over the line of what we
should do to anyone in any circumstance.
But in making a totalist case against the
CIA program, the Feinstein report implausibly asserts that it had no benefits
whatsoever.
It points out, as though it settles something, that terrorists lied when they were
subjected to coercive interrogations. Of
course, terrorists also lied when they
werent subjected to coercive interrogations. The standard shouldnt be if the CIA
program produced 100 percent truthfulness, but whether it produced intelligence
that otherwise wouldnt have been available as quickly or at all.
The overall contention of the report is
that we would have achieved the same results in the war on terror with less information, rather than more. Not only does
that defy common sense, it is a bet no one
would have been willing to make in 2002.
Nor would anyone have guessed 10
years ago that it would be considered
more in keeping with American values
to assassinate people from drones rather
than capture them and ask them questions under duress.

news@gonzalescannon.com
STOCKDALE A
22-year-old Nixon woman
was killed Dec. 14 in a
highway accident between
Nixon and Stockdale.
Department of Public
Safety investigators said
a 2010 Ford Focus being
driven by Whitney Mitchell, 22, of Nixon, was eastbound on Highway 87 at

around 6:09 a.m. Her vehicle crossed into the westbound lanes and struck a
tanker trailer being towed
by a 2014 Mack semi tractor being driven by Kenneth Sliz, 37, of San Antonio.
Letters to
DPS spokesman Trooper

Anthony Flores said the
impact caused Mitchells
vehicle to catch fire. She
was pronounced dead at
the scene by Wilson County precinct 3 Justice of the
Peace Jim Burdette.
Investigators said the
truck driver suffered no injuries in the accident.
the Editor
Were all in the same boat: end the hate
Dear Editor,
We are all, sons and daughters, brothers
and sisters of the One.
Not one of us, Human Beings, is any better, nor special, nor smarter than the other.
The color of our outer skin makes no
difference.
Whether we like it or not, we are all sons
and daughters, brothers and sisters, while
in the physical on this intolerant and hatefilled planet. We are all the color red inside.
When a human being bleeds, either
from a war, or senseless street violence, red
blood covers Mother Earth.
Human beings have a very nasty habit of
LABELING another fellow human being,
which essentially leads to forgetting that

we are all, sons and daughters, brothers
and sisters.
LOVE, is the only thing that KILLS an
angry man.
The current dysfunctional mentality
state of mankinds way of thinking is jeopardizing all human life on earth.
All Human Beings are in the same boat,
and all together, were sinking and sinking
fast.
Hell awaits all mankind, unless we
drastically change our destructive way of
thinking.

SCAM: Old tactic re-surfaces

This is the time of the year when many

people are hit with scammers. Be particularly careful with any request for payment
for any purpose other than routine payments that you regularly make.
The IRS, Social Security, banks, lending
institutions and other reputable firms dealing with finances do not call wanting money, particularly money in the fashion of
credit card draws, or pre-paid debit cards
sent to some distant address.
The Gonzales County Sheriff s Office
would like to wish everyone a very Merry
Christmas and a safe and productive new
year.
The local scam appears to be a variant
of one which appeared nationally in April,
prompting a warning from the IRS.
The IRS will always send taxpayers a
written notification of any tax due via the
U.S. mail, the agency noted in a news release in conjunction with the April 15 filing
date earlier this year. The IRS never asks for
credit card, debit card or prepaid card information over the telephone.
For more information or to report a
scam, go to www.irs.gov and type scam
in the search box.
The IRS notes that recent immigrants
and illegal immigrants are frequently targeted. Potential victims are threatened
with deportation, arrest, having their utilities shut off, or having their drivers licenses revoked. Callers are frequently insulting
or hostile, apparently to scare their potential victims.
Potential victims may be told they are
entitled to big refunds, or that they owe
money that must be paid immediately to
the IRS. When unsuccessful the first time,
sometimes phone scammers call back trying a new strategy.
Other characteristics of this scam include:
Scammers use fake names and IRS

badge numbers. They generally use common names and surnames to identify
themselves.
Scammers may be able to recite the
last four digits of a victims Social Security
number.
Scammers spoof the IRS toll-free number on caller ID to make it appear that its
the IRS calling.
Scammers sometimes send bogus IRS
emails to some victims to support their bogus calls.
Victims hear background noise of other
calls being conducted to mimic a call site.
After threatening victims with jail time
or drivers license revocation, scammers
hang up and others soon call back pretending to be from the local police or DMV, and
the caller ID supports their claim.
If you get a phone call from someone
claiming to be from the IRS, heres what
you should do:
If you know you owe taxes or you
think you might owe taxes, call the IRS at
1.800.829.1040. The IRS employees at that
line can help you with a payment issue, if
there really is such an issue.
If you know you dont owe taxes or have
no reason to think that you owe any taxes
(for example, youve never received a bill
or the caller made some bogus threats as
described above), then call and report the
incident to the Treasury Inspector General
for Tax Administration at 1.800.366.4484.
You can file a complaint using the FTC
Complaint Assistant; choose Other and
then Imposter Scams. If the complaint
involves someone impersonating the IRS,
include the words IRS Telephone Scam in
the notes.
Taxpayers should be aware that there
are other unrelated scams (such as a lottery sweepstakes) and solicitations (such
as debt relief) that fraudulently claim to be
from the IRS.

Christ is fully God but He is also fully human

In our last article we emphasized the full Deity of
Christ. By that, we meant
that the same person that
was born in Bethlehem two
thousand years ago as Jesus
of Nazareth existed before
His human birth. From all
eternity He was and is the
infinite, eternal, and unchangeable God. As one
of the early church creeds
put it, He is very God of
very God. This time we
will show that Jesus is also
fully man. The eternal Son
of God became man. This
may stretch our finite human intellect. We may
search for words in how to
explain such a mystery, yet
we dare not deny it, as it is
the very plain teaching of
Holy Scripture. The best and
safest thing for me to do is to
primarily let the Scripture
speak for itself. We read the
following statement regarding His taking on humanity,
Who, being in the form of
God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God,
but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of
a bondservant, and coming
in the likeness of men. And
being found in appearance
as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to

the point of death, even the

death of the cross. (Philippians 2:6-8)
Notice also that this section of Scripture is quick to
point to His death on the
cross. Because man had
sinned, man must pay and
make satisfaction to God
for his sin. Yet no mere
man could successfully bear
sin and reconcile sinners to
God. What finite man could
never do, the God/Man has
done. He became man to
suffer and die in the place
of sinners. Christ is two
natures in one person: He is
at once both fully God and
fully human. Many other
Biblical texts point to the
humanity of our Lord. The
gospel of John begins with
the wonderful truth of the
pre-existence of Christ. In
the beginning was the Word,
and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God. He
was in the beginning with
God. (John 1:1-2) Further
into the chapter we have
the very clear statement re-
garding the humanity of the

Word, And the Word became flesh and dwelt among
us. (John 1:14) Perhaps no
statement is stronger than
Hebrews 2:17, Therefore,
in all things He had to be
made like His brethren, that
He might be a merciful and
faithful High Priest in things
pertaining to God, to make
propitiation for the sins of
the people.
As a human Jesus was
born in the same way that all
humans are born. He grew
and learned in childhood
just as other children. And
the child grew and became
strong, filled with wisdom;
and the favor of God was
upon Him. (Luke 2:40) Jesus became tired just as we

do. Jesus therefore, being
wearied from His journey,
sat thus by the well. (John
4:6) He became thirsty
when upon the cross. I
thirst. (John 19:28) We also
read of Jesus being hungry.
(Matthew 4:2) When Jesus
died upon the cross it was a
very real death. His human
body ceased to function and
have life in it, just as ours will
when we die. When Jesus
was raised from the dead
he was raised to a physical
body. To be sure it was a
body now made perfect and
free from all weakness, disease, or death. Yet it was and

is at present a real body. After His resurrection He said,

See My hands and feet, that
it is I Myself, handle Me, and
see; for a spirit has not flesh
and bones as you see that I
have. (Luke 24:39) Having
taken on humanity upon
coming to this earth, so He
continues as both God and
Man.
It is often rightly pointed
out that Jesus was without
sin. Certainly, this is gloriously true. He could not
save us from sin if He were
a mere sinner as we are.
However, His being without
sin in no way means that
He does not have a human
nature. Sin does not have
to exist in order for humanity to be present. Christ did

not take on fallen human nature, as some have wrongly
stated. Our glorious Savior
took on human nature as it
was meant to be. It is not
difficult to see that Adam
was fully human before He
transgressed. Interestingly,
Adam is called the first man,
and Christ is called the second man. See (I Corinthians 15:46-47) Christ came
as sinless perfect man. As
you celebrate this Christmas make sure you think
Biblically about the Savior.
He is both God and Man.
Worship Him in all of His
glory.

Ruby Virlee Bright

1920-2014
BRIGHT
Ruby Virlee Bright, 94,

of Gonzales, passed away
Monday, December 15,
2014. Ruby was born July
23, 1920 in Weddington,
N.C. to Henry Banks Stephens and Mary Minor
Kimbrell Stephens. She
married Eli Ray Bright, Jr.
on November 12, 1942 in
Lancaster County, South
Carolina. Ruby was a
member of Faith Family
Church, and had been a
member of the VFW Ladies Auxiliary.
Ruby met Eli Ray
Bright, Jr. while he was
stationed at Ft. Bragg,
N.C. training to go overseas and join our troops
fighting in WWII. After
a three month courtship,
they married and Ruby
was left behind as Eli
was sent to the European
Theatre. Ruby moved to
Gonzales with her infant
daughter in 1944. She
worked very hard to help
supplement the money
her husband sent back
every month for her and
their daughter while he
was still overseas. When
Eli returned, Ruby had
saved enough money
for them to open a caf
which they operated for a
while. Ruby went to work
for Gindlers Department
Store for many years. She
and Eli added three more
boys to their family and
Ruby continued to work
to provide for them. Ruby
was a frugal lady; she
raised her own chickens
for eggs and meat for the
table. She was an excellent
cook and though she was
overly careful in spending
a dime on herself, she was
generous with others. She
loved yard art; she would
buy metal yard chairs and
paint them festively. She
was very fond of pink flamingos and much to the
chagrin of her family; she
enjoyed sharing them as
well. Ruby loved animals;
she adored her dogs and
lovingly cared for them
just as she would if they
were one of her own children. She was mawmaw
to her grandchildren, they
adored her sense of humor and how she loved to
laugh. She led her family
by example in her strong
faith and love of attending
worship services. As she
got older, Ruby became
more dependant on family. Her children joyfully
accepted the opportunity to give back to their
mother who had given
them so much through
the years. Ruby enjoyed
being doted over by her
family, having her hair
and nails done regularly,
being near loved ones to
share her sense of humor
and zest for life. Even as
her age required more
and more assistance,
healthcare providers were
provided and Ruby chose
to make friends and enjoy the pampering rather
than wrestle for her independence. She loved her
caregivers as family and
it was always apparent
they loved her too. Her
life in the early days was
not easy, moving to new

surroundings with the
needs of an infant daughter, raising three boys and
caring for her husband,
hers was a life of willful
acceptance, as Mary the
mother of Jesus spoke in
Luke 1:38, Behold, I am
the servant of the Lord,
let it be to me according
to your Word. Ruby was
a servant to the Lord; she
lived, worked and loved
accordingly.
Ruby Virlee Stephens
Bright is survived by her

Lorene Emma Moseley

1930-2014
MOSELEY
Lorene Emma Moseley,

84, of Gonzales, passed
away Friday, December
19, 2014. Lorene was
born September 25, 1930
in Gonzales County to
Herman and Olga Rossow Knetig. She married
Truman Vaughn Moseley
on April 5, 1947 in Gonzales County. She was a
member of Wrightsboro
Baptist Church.
Lorene grew up in the
Monthalia area of Gonzales County. She actively
took care of her siblings
along with field work
including chopping cotton. After marrying Truman, she moved to the
Wrightsboro area of the
county and worked raising chickens for Tom Lester, Sr., along with caring
for her children. Lorene
was dedicated to her job
and committed to being
a good mother. She was
a wonderful cook and
baked a dewberry cobbler that was delicious if
not legendary. She taught
her children the personal
rewards of hard work and
the integrity that accompanies honesty. Lorene
truly never met a stranger; that was just her way,
she simply loved people.
Lorene took three of her
brothers children in to
her home to raise after his
wife had passed away. She
loved them as if they were
her own and generously
loved and cared for them.
Lorene was a strong, loving, forgiving woman
who believed in family.
She never tasted alcohol
of any form, didnt smoke
and to popular knowledge
she never cussed. She was
Nene and Granny Lorene
to her grandchildren and
Granny Rooster to her
great-grandchildren. She
was so very proud of her
family, she loved them so
completely and indeed
they were her world, her
sense of being and her
purpose. Lorene clearly
knew the verse in Corinthians 13, and she incorporated these words
in raising her family, . . .
these three remain: faith,
hope and love. But the
greatest of these is love.
Lorene Emma Moseley is survived by her
daughter and son-in-law,
Joyce and John Buckner of Lockhart, son and
daughter-in-law, Larry
Wayne and Donna Moseley of Luling, grandchildren, Chad Grantham
and his wife Mary, Cole

Reyes grew up traveling with his parents and
siblings to work picking
cotton in New Mexico,
cherries in Colorado and

sugar beet fields in Wyoming. He learned early in
life how to work hard and
the value of the wages he
earned. But it wasnt all
work in the early days, he
attended school, enjoyed
swimming in the Sabinal river with family and
friends on hot summer
days and peacefully communing with nature as
he fished the rivers, lakes
and streams of the Sabinal area, New Mexico,
Colorado and Wyoming.
He raised his family in
Gonzales and he worked
in maintenance for the
Gonzales High School for
many years. Working for
GISD was a good fit for
him; he enjoyed the work
and loved young people.
Reyes was a wonderful
provider for his wife and
children, he imparted the
same hard working values to his children and
taught them that working
for what they want makes

Privacy, atmosphere make The Heights inviting

Literature suggests that resident/
patient satisfaction with care is
closely linked to evironmental issues. For most people, a private
room provides a place away from
others and the ability to decorate and furnish the enviroment
with personal items. Interesting
research shows a link between recovery from illness with sunlight.
In some studies, patients who had
views of sun-bathed areas recovered at a 70% faster than those who
had views of walls or covered areas. The Heights of Gonzales offers
68 total small private rooms with
attached full baths and window
views.
We also have four large suites
which consist of 2 bedrooms, a
large bath, and a living room. All

bathrooms are large, giving ample
space for wheelchair bound residents to maneuver on their own.
Large, open living areas look out
onto the land around The Heights
with views of trees, open land, and
greenery.
We also have a Community
Room available for reservation. We
host regular meetings for Rotary
and bridge clubs and would love to
open our doors to more.
For more information, please
contact The Heights at (830) 6724530 and ask for Cindy Molina,
our Admissions and Marketing Director. She can also be reached via
email at admissions@theheightsgonzales.com.

Wildcats scratch out win against BCS Bears

By MARK LUBE
WAELDER Late
in the fourth quarter
of Monday afternoons
non-district game with
Brentwood Christian, the
Waelder Wildcats held a
47-39 lead and looked certain to add another win to
its tally.
However, the Bears
went on a 9-1 run to tie
the game at 48-48 before
the Cats got the winning basket with six seconds left and Brentwood
Christian missed a shot
at the buzzer, allowing to
Waelder to escape defeat,
50-48.
We survived and we
came out with the win,
Waelder head coach Brandon Howard said. We
need to be more consistent
on defense and offense.
Leads were exchanged
during the first quarter the Bears opened
things with a 2-0 lead and
later a 4-2 advantage after
Waelder got a game-tying
shot by Tracey Moore.
Waelder got a steal
from Caleb Ibarra and he
later got pass from Jeremy
Gonzales and hit a three
to give Waelder a 5-4 lead.
A little later, Gonzales
forced another turnover
and fed Keyshawn Fields
for a 7-6 lead and Gon-
zales sank a three to put

the Cats ahead 10-6. A
free throw by the Bears
brought them within 10-7
at the end of the quarter.
Brentwood Christian
started the second with
a triple by Aaron Garcia
that knotted the game at
10. Two buckets by Fields
and a three by Gonzales
pushed Waelder to seven
straight points.
The Bears ended the
half with a 5-2 run to cut
Waelders lead to 19-15.
Points from Fields and
Ibarra gave the Cats a 2618 lead in the third quarter.
Brentwood Christian
responded with a 10-0
run, led by a pair of threes

by Jordan Johnson, for the
lead.
Waelder
responded
with a 6-0 run, capped
by a triple from Ibarra
and then a layup following a steal fom him as
well. Brentwood Christian
battled to within 34-30 to
start the final period.
The Bears closed the gap
at the start but Waelder
held them at bay and the

Mustangs improve game Lady Mustangs edged by

Poth in first district game
despite setback to UCR
By MARK LUBE
By MARK LUBE
NIXON Mustangs head basketball coach Carlton McKinney has been

telling his team they can realize their
full potential and ability to get better in
every game.
The Mustangs have listened to his instruction but have yet to see the predictions manifest themselves on the court.
Until tonights game against Universal City Randolph,, .
Nixon-Smiley fell for the first time
this season to the Ro-Hawks, 67-58,
Friday night at Nixon-Smiley High
School Gymnasium.
It was a good game for us, McKinney said. I know we can be better and
that is what we have been telling the
kids.
Nixon-Smiley was down 54-36 going
into the fourth quarter but went on a
22-13 run to close down UCRs lead
to single digits by the fourth-quarter
buzzer.
We showed up during that last
quarter, McKinney said. I was proud
of how we fought. We need to focus on
doing that from start to finish. We will
use this game as a learning tool.
Universal City-Randolph scored the
games opening bucket and Nixon fired
back with a basket from Luis Limon,
a three-point play from Jordan Van
Auken and a jumper by Sam Moore,
for a 7-2 lead.
The Ro-Hawks countered with six
straight points and Moore reclaimed
the lead for the Mustangs when he
grabbed a steal and made a crowdpleasing dunk.

got baskets from Nick Pena and Treon
Fatheree.
Later, baskets from Jordan Williams
put the Ro-Hawks ahead 23-18 and
Nixon got within 23-20 at the end of
the frame on the basket by Jose Melendez.
In the second quarter, the Stangs
eventually forced a 29-29 game with
four points from Fatheree. Universal
City-Randolph ended the period with
nine straight points for a 38-29 halftime advantage.\
The Ro-Hawks started the third
quarter with an 8-4 run.
Moore and Limon made some free
throws down the stretch but the visitors closed out the quarter with two
straight baskets, ahead 54-36.
The Stangs turned up the heat in
the fourth quarter with a 10-2 run to
MUSTANGS IMPROVE Page B3
NIXON The Lady

Mustangs took a total of 39
free throws but made just
22 of them Friday night in
the district opener at home
against Poth.
The Lady Mustangs also
failed to hit some shots
and this helped allow the
Pirettes to pull away for a
57-46 win at Nixon-Smiley
High School Gymnasium.
This game was ours for
the taking, Lady Mustangs
first-year head coach Scott
Jones said. But we did not
convert some things. We
missed a lot of free throws
and countless putbacks. I
felt that was the difference
in the ball game.
Jones said he was pleased
with how the Lady Mustangs battled in the game.
Poth took a 10-3 lead after rallying from an early
deficit.
Nixon-Smiley battled to
finish the frame with an 1111 score as Tyhana Mejia
sank a couple of three, hit a
free throw and Celeste Arriage made a free throw.
In the second frame,
buckets by Aida Cruz and
Amanda Wauters put Poth
ahead 16-12.

Hunting group: keep Texas wildlife wild
By JENNY SANDERS
Texans for Saving Our Hunting Heritage
We have all heard the

stories. The so-called
hunter picks out a deer
on the Internet to kill
for its prized antlers.
The hunter flies in on his
corporate jet to a Texas
ranch, hops in a jeep and
drives up to a genetically
engineered trophy buck,
released from captivity as
little as 10 days prior. The
hunter shoots the deer,
loads up the antlers, gives
the meat to whoever will
take it and gets back on
his plane so he is home in
time for dinner.
With over four million wild deer in Texas,
how can we justify these
extreme factory farming
and put-and-take shooting practices? Hunters
and Texans agree, this is
not hunting.
Deer breeding in Texas is a cottage industry
backed by big dollars
and focused on producing the biggest antlers.

There are less than 1,300
deer breeders in the state,
and for the past decade,
they have spent millions
on lobbying efforts seeking more liberty with the
peoples deer. Despite
outcries from Texans and
hunters alike, the breeders have gone largely unopposed.
With the 84th Legislature commencing this
January, deer breeders
are expected to file bills
that will seek to further
deregulate their industry. Texans for Saving
Our Hunting Heritage
is a group of concerned
sportsmen and landowners formed to expose
practices that we believe
threaten the future of
hunting:
Cavalier use of drugs
and no safety net to protect human health
Extreme animal hus-
bandry practices that

are common in the deer
breeding industry lend
themselves to the use of
a long list of pharmaceuticals. Very few of the
commonly used drugs
are labeled for whitetailed deer. And unlike
the strict controls on
pharmaceutical administration and withdrawal
intervals in the livestock
industry, there is no recognized authority that
protects the consumer
from potential drug residues in liberated breeder
deer.
The 10-Day Rule:
Current law allows for
captive-raised deer to
be hunted just 11 days
after they are liberated
from captivity. This poses threats to food safety
because of unknown
pharmaceutical
withdrawal intervals in liberated breeder deer and
promotes a perception
of canned hunting that

most hunters and most
Texans cannot support.
Lack of Consumer
Protection and Disclosure. There is currently no requirement for
breeder deer to be clearly
and visibly marked upon
liberation into the wild.
No form of disclosure is
required to ensure that
the hunter is aware he
is hunting a pen-raised
deer. Hunters deserve
transparency regarding
the origin and potential
pharmaceutical history
of the deer they harvest.

Lack of Enforced
Habitat Requirements:
Deer breeders have used
political strong-arming
to exempt themselves
from the Texas Parks
and Wildlife Department
Stocking Policy,allowing
them to liberate captiveraised deer into any size
pasture,regardless
of
habitat availability.
Hunting is part of
the fabric of Texas. It is
about camaraderie, family values, conservation
and tradition. Texans for
Saving our Hunting Heritage calls on Texans and

Texas hunters to unite in
opposition to these practices that threaten the
perception and future of
our sport. Please join us
as we, Hunt Real. Hunt
Wild. Hunt Texas Proud.
Jenny Sanders is the executive director of Texans
for Saving Our Hunting
Heritage.

Let some fringe show your flash

By ANDREA SEGER
Co-Owner, Angels & Outlaws
Fringe is a super chic way to make

an everyday run of the mill outfit
come to life. Fringe has been one of
the best trending styles in 2014 and is
going to be even bigger in 2015, so if
your closet is lacking, lets hope Santa
left a little fringe under the tree for
you.
Fringy styles always bring to mind
the roaring twenties when flappers
rocked short fringe dresses with
heels and long multi strands of pearls
around their necks and feathers in
their hair. In old pictures the women
always looked fun, sophisticated, and
sexy all at the same time.
Today fringe can give you that same
look. However, moderation is the key
to pulling off the sexy, stylish look

these days. Fringe around the sleeves
of a lacy black shirt, or around the
bottom of a colorful cardigan paired
with leggings and boots is a great way
to add a little flash to your outfit.
While flappers are the first thing
I think of when I see fringe, it also
brings to mind cowboys in buckskin
suede leather fringe jackets and Indian princesses in leather fringe moccasins. Today you can look good in
the same suede fringe jacket or rock
your Minnetonka moccasin boots
with a pair of skinny jeans.
Fringe and leather go hand and
hand and will be trending high this
next year. Even accessories will be
all about the fringe. You can find
some amazing leather handbags with
fringe down the sides or spectacular
vintage style carpet bags laced with

tassels and fringe.
Necklaces and earrings will be embellished with bright colored fringed
and leather tassels. The looks you
can achieve with fringe this coming year are endless. Whether you
opt for a colorful lace and fringe
cardigan for a sophisticated, sexy
look like the flappers in the roaring
twenties, or you go with fringe boots
and leather fringe tassels attached to
your turquoise and pearl beads for a
great western tribal blend, you wont
go wrong flashing a little fringe.
A little fringe benefit might go a
long way to giving your wardrobe
the fun, sophisticated, sexy look that
had the flappers roaring in the twenties and looking fabulous while doing it.

AUSTIN The State of

Texas, 49 states and the
District of Columbia on
Monday announced the resolution of a multistate investigation into wireless carrier
T-Mobile USA, Inc. for its
role in the practice of unlawful cellphone cramming
the unlawful practice of
placing unauthorized thirdparty charges on mobile
phone accounts. Cramming
occurs when third-party
content providers enroll and
bill mobile phone customers
for their services such as
ringtones and recurring text
messages containing trivia
or horoscopes without the
customers knowledge or
consent.
Widely recognized as a
national leader in efforts to
end cramming, the Internet and Privacy team of the
Texas Attorney Generals Office served on the multistate
coalitions Executive Committee to investigate allegations that T-Mobiles billing
practices actually facilitated
unscrupulous content providers mobile cramming. In
addition to Texas, the Executive Committee team included attorneys general from
Vermont, Florida, Maryland,
Delaware, Washington and
Oregon.
Texas Attorney Generals
court-filed agreement with
T-Mobile
Under the agreement ne-
gotiated by Texas and the Executive Committee, T-Mobile agreed to settle the states
claims for a total nationwide
monetary value of at least
$90 million including $4.5
million to the Federal Communications Commission
and $18 million to the states.
Texas will receive nearly
$1.06 million in payment.
One third of Texass share
will reimburse the States legal fees, with the remaining
two-thirds of the funds disbursed as civil penalties pursuant to the Texas Deceptive
Trade Practices Act.
As part of this legal action, T-Mobile has agreed to
no longer bill for third-party
Premium Short Message
Services (PSMS) which led
to the unlawful cramming
and will be isolating other
third-party billing charges
on customer bills. In addition to allowing customers to
more clearly see the remaining third-party charges on
their bills, T-Mobile is also
implementing a new system
to ensure they obtain the express consent of customers
prior to a purchase, and will
also provide an electronic
receipt to customers upon
purchase.
The national agreement
also requires T-Mobile to
provide uncapped, nationwide restitution to compensate current and former
T-Mobile customers who
were improperly billed for
third-party content providers products and services.
