THE WOMEN’S FUND The Women’s Fund at Austin Community Foundation was founded in 2004 to focus on the needs of women and children in Central Texas. At the time, there was a lack of philanthropic support targeting the specific needs of women and children and no comprehensive data set tracking their well-being in our community. Since then, Women’s Fund investors have granted over $1.4 million to more than 60 local nonprofit programs, and in 2015, the Women’s Fund issued its first report, Stronger Women, Better Austin: A Status Report on Women & Children in Central Texas.

Annual NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebooks Every fall since 1950, the New Mexico Geological Society (NMGS) has held an annual Fall Field Conference that explores some region of New Mexico (or surrounding states). Always well attended, these conferences provide a guidebook to participants. Besides detailed road logs, the guidebooks contain many well written, edited, and peer-reviewed geoscience papers. These books have set the national standard for geologic guidebooks and are an essential geologic reference for anyone working in or around New Mexico. Free Downloads NMGS has decided to make peer-reviewed papers from our Fall Field Conference guidebooks available for free download. Non-members will have access to guidebook papers two years after publication. Members have access to all papers. This is in keeping with our mission of promoting interest, research, and cooperation regarding geology in New Mexico. However, guidebook sales represent a significant proportion of our operating budget. Therefore, only research papers are available for download. Road logs, mini-papers, maps, stratigraphic charts, and other selected content are available only in the printed guidebooks.

Holmes [email protected] Department of Biology Baylor University Waco, Texas Introduction This document has been produced to serve as a quick guide to the identification of milkweeds (Asclepias spp.) in Texas. For the species listed in Table 1 below, basic information such as range (in this case county distribution), habitat, and key identification characteristics accompany a photograph of each species. This information comes from a variety of sources that includes the Manual of the Vascular Flora of Texas, Biota of North America Project, knowledge of the authors, and various other publications (cited in the text). All photographs are used with permission and are fully credited to the copyright holder and/or originator. Other items, but in particular scientific publications, traditionally do not require permissions, but only citations to the author(s) if used for scientific and/or nonprofit purposes. Names, both common and scientific, follow those in USDA NRCS (2015). When identifying milkweeds in the field, attention should be focused on the distinguishing characteristics listed for each species.

Top-Industries-Texas-Panhandle
TOP INDUSTRIES of Amarillo & the Texas Panhandle Amarillo’s assets extend far beyond its agricultural commodities and vast land resources. The Texas Panhandle’s economy encompasses a diverse group of industries, from livestock and food technologies to renewable energy and logistics. Each industry helps maintain the region’s, as well as Amarillo’s, economic health. Here’s a look at the top industries of the Texas Panhandle. In the late 1980s, the Amarillo area faced paltry business conditions and limited employment opportunities for area residents. At that time, the unemployment rate was higher than the national average and consumer activity was in a state of decline. Fast forward 30 years, and Amarillo touts an unemployment rate lower than the national average and a diverse industry list. National reports consistently list Amarillo as one of the “Best Cities to Start a Business.” NUMBER OF BUSINESSES (2016) AMARILLO POTTER COUNTY RANDALL COUNTY 10,108 7,044 4,615 businesses businesses businesses 102,970 person labor force TOP 5 LEADING INDUSTRIES BY JOB IN POTTER COUNTY 1 MANUFACTURING 2 RETAIL 3 PROFESSIONAL, 4 HEALTHCARE & 5 ACCOMMODATION & SCIENTIFIC & SOCIAL SERVICES FOOD SERVICES TECHNICAL SERVICE TOP 5 LEADING INDUSTRIES BY JOB IN RANDALL COUNTY 1 RETAIL 2 EDUCATION 3 HEALTHCARE & 4 ACCOMMODATION & 5 OTHER SERVICES SOCIAL SERVICES FOOD SERVICES (Repair, Personal Care, Laundry, Religious, etc.) MAJOR INDUSTRIES OF THE TEXAS PANHANDLE Amarillo is one of the top areas for generating wind energy, with Texas being the largest producer of wind power in the country.

February 2021 Historical Winter Storm Event South-Central Texas
Austin/San Antonio Weather Forecast Office WEATHER EVENT SUMMARY February 2021 Historical Winter Storm Event South-Central Texas 10-18 February 2021 A Snow-Covered Texas. GeoColor satellite image from the morning of 15 February, 2021. February 2021 South Central Texas Historical Winter Storm Event South-Central Texas Winter Storm Event February 10-18, 2021 Event Summary Overview An unprecedented and historical eight-day period of winter weather occurred between 10 February and 18 February across South-Central Texas. The first push of arctic air arrived in the area on 10 February, with the cold air dropping temperatures into the 20s and 30s across most of the area. The first of several frozen precipitation events occurred on the morning of 11 February where up to 0.75 inches of freezing rain accumulated on surfaces in Llano and Burnet Counties and 0.25-0.50 inches of freezing rain accumulated across the Austin metropolitan area with lesser amounts in portions of the Hill Country and New Braunfels area. For several days, the cold air mass remained in place across South-Central Texas, but a much colder air mass remained stationary across the Northern Plains. This record-breaking arctic air was able to finally move south into the region late on 14 February and into 15 February as a strong upper level low-pressure system moved through the Southern Plains. As this system moved through the region, snow began to fall and temperatures quickly fell into the single digits and teens. Most areas of South-Central Texas picked up at least an inch of snow with the highest amounts seen from Del Rio and Eagle Pass extending to the northeast into the Austin and San Antonio areas.
