JAMES D. SCHULLATTORNEY AT LAW
The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) encourages Texans in allregions of the state to make preparations for winter weather as we enter thecold weather season. "While we've all heard the joke about Texas only having two seasons –hot and hotter – all Texans need to prepare now for the serious threats thatthe upcoming winter could bring," said DPS Director Steven McCraw."Every year, Texas faces the dangers of winter weather conditions, includingfreezing temperatures, ice, sleet, and even snow. Texans are urged to stayinformed about changing weather in their area and to take steps now to helpstay safe during the coming months." Texans should winterize their vehicles by checking the battery, wind-shield wipers (including appropriate freeze resistant-fluid), tire pressure, tiretread, fluid levels, and lubricate door and trunk locks to prevent freezing. Inaddition, here is a list of emergency supplies drivers can keep in their vehi-cle: • Blankets/sleeping bags, extra clothing, gloves and a hat. • Cell phone, radio, flashlight and extra batteries. • First-aid kit and pocket knife. • High calorie, non-perishable food and bottled water. • Bag of sand or cat litter to provide traction for tires. • Windshield scraper, tool kit, booster cables, tow rope and a shovel. DPS offers the following additional tips for staying safe during possiblewinter weather:
DPS Reminds Texans of Winter Weather Safety Tips • Monitor local weather broadcasts and follow up-to-the-minute weatherconditions, at http://www.weather.gov/. • Purchase an all-hazards weather radio for up-to-date warnings, watch-es, forecasts and other hazard information. • Sign up for your local emergency notification system. • Make sure your vehicle is properly maintained before any trip, and keepyour gas tank full. • On icy roads, drive slowly and increase distance required for stopping,and avoid using cruise control. • Watch for downed trees and power lines across roads. If power is out,treat all intersections as four-way stops. • Allow extra time when traveling in inclement weather. • Avoid traveling when sleet, freezing rain or snow is predicted, and mon-itor road conditions by visiting www.drivetexas.org or by calling 1-800-452-9292. • Insulate outside faucets and pipes near outer walls. • Make sure that furnaces, heaters, fireplaces and wood stoves are clean,well-ventilated and in good working condition. To prevent carbon monoxide poisoning, never operate generators andother fuel-powered devices inside a home or an enclosed space, such as agarage. The deadly odorless, colorless gas is produced any time a fossil fuelis burned, with sources including motor vehicle engines, generators and fuel-burning appliances or heating systems. Consider installing a carbon monox-ide detector. • Make arrangements for proper shelter and an emergency supply of foodand water for your pets and livestock. • Stock up on firewood and supplies, including canned goods and bottledwater. • If you will be away from home for a long period of time, set your ther-mostat to 55 degrees or higher and open cabinets under sinks. • Make sure you have inclement weather contact numbers for schools andwork. • Check on friends and family members whose health or age may putthem at greater risk from cold weather. During the winter season, residents can contact 2-1-1 Texas, the state'sfree 24-hour helpline, to check on possible community-established warmingcenters or related services in their area. No matter where you live in Texas,you can dial 2-1-1 or 877-541-7905 for community resources.

Foods to Feed Healthy Eyes
Like other parts of the body, the eyes thrive on nutritious foods. Research sug-gests that a healthy diet may help prevent several serious eye problems. Take a close look at these six tips for nutrient-packed foods and drinks that maydo eyes some good: 1. Corner some kale. This favorite is loaded with two antioxidants: zeaxanthinand lutein. They may be linked to a lower risk of cataracts a clouding of the eyeslens and age-related macular degeneration (AMD), which destroys central vision.These nutrients come from other dark green, leafy vegetables too, such as spinachand romaine lettuce. 2. Crunch on a carrot. The orange color in carrots is a clear clue that they’rehigh in beta-carotene, which may help slow the progress of AMD. Other orange-colored fruits and vegetables such as sweet potatoes, butternut squash and apricotsare also easy on the eyes. And beta-carotene has a bonus benefit: it may help main-tain good night vision. 3. Feast on fish. Certain fish such as salmon, albacore tuna and sardines are richin omega-3 fatty acids. These essential fats may help keep eyes healthy. Omega-3sare also available beyond the sea: think walnuts or chia seeds. 4. See the way to more citrus. The vitamin C in citrus fruits such as oranges andgrapefruit may help protect against cataracts and AMD. Other C-rich gems includecantaloupe, bell peppers, broccoli and strawberries. 5. Brew up some benefits. Green tea contains catechins. Those are plant com-pounds that may help lower the risk of cataracts and AMD. 6. Look for legumes. Peas, beans and other legumes contain a must-have min-eral: zinc. It may help protect eyes from the damaging effects of light. Another easyway to get zinc: snack on a handful of peanuts; they’re a legume too.

By adopting a mile of roadway or parkland, your group helps keep thecommunity litter-free and beautiful.
Participating individuals or groups self-monitor a city park or roadway,and plan clean-up efforts around the availability of the group.
Groups may plan monthly or quarterly clean-up events, or as the area dic-tates. City staff can provide limited supplies of trash bags, gloves, and vests,as needed.
Once a My Benbrook Mile location has been formally adopted, signagewill be erected recognizing the groups participating in the program.
For more information and to receive an assigned area for clean-up, con-tact Alex Busken at 817-249-6008 or email [email protected].
