The great State of Texas confirms this year's first case of dangerous viruses now spreading around the nation and worldwide.

It's no secret that Texans like to brag. But the saying "everything is bigger in Texas" doesn't just refer to big hats, big hair, and big attitudes. It has its roots in the state's enormous geographical area. Texas has a total area of 268,820 square miles (696,241 km²), ranking just behind Alaska in terms of size.

I am a dreamer and aromantic who has alway been guided by Venus, the planet of love and inner beauty 

Some say I’m the embodiment of balance and harmony within relationships with a gentle, persuasive charm and a keen sense of justice, while navigating through the nuances of partnership with grace and fairness in the hearts of those I love, always striving to create a partnership defined by mutual respect and understanding.

Republican MoRon Disaster is attracting negative KARMA as clumps of a 5K mile Florida seaweed blob hits the son of a beach.

As he toured 12 cities in three early-voting states, MoRon forgets about his state by turning his back on Florida, while he tries to make his case that he is the more conservative and idiotic alternative to the other bigger, fatter and just as dumb resident disaster.

The seaweed dangers are that it brings flesh-eating bacteria to The Sunshine State and that means less tourism dollars for the state of constant confusion.

HAPPY IN MEDIA

Valued, engagements seemingly abstract and appearing as subjective concepts are finally acquiring a new life significance.

I am a  multilingual media maestro who decades ago entered a newsroom for the first time and I can safely say now - what an awakening it was to be able to study the hyperlocal editorial process. I proceeded to remain engaged five days and 40 hours a week for 3 months. It was a crash course in Dr. Ken's Newswatch10.

Today, I'm still in touch with a couple of colleagues, now lifelong acquaintances, and some have become good old friends.

The New York City pounding rains that brought strong winds that pounded The Big Apple into the late-night hours have disappeared.

The National Weather Service issued warnings of wind gusts and considerable rainfall. Precipitation amounts were higher caused by thunderstorms, which developed throughout the night.

Although it does not officially arrive until Sunday, the birds outside my window may not have received a Mother Nature notification.
