After almost 300 years of autocratic Spanish rule, Mexico declared war on the Spanish colonial government on September 15, 1810. On October 30, the rebels routed the Spaniards in the Battle of Monte de las Cruces, however the insurgents were wary of the massive Spanish army occupying Mexico City, and took up defensive positions on the Calderon River. The rebels were not up to the task and the Spaniards crushed the rebel army and executed its commanding General Hidalgo.

The rebellion ground on inconclusively for the next ten years, but in 1821 Spanish General Agustin de Iturbide, disgruntled over his lack of promotion, switched sides and allied himself and most of his army with the revolution. From all over the country rebels flocked to join Iturbide’s swelling command.

Realizing the insurgents had become too powerful, government rulers in Madrid, Spain bowed to the inevitable and signed the Treaty of Cordoba, Buy Amoxil recognizing Mexican Independence and Iturbide as the head of the government.

Longview’s Maude Cobb Convention Center cialis pharmacy online saw throngs of locals from around East Texas come to celebrate this independence. Sponsors of the event include Texas Bank and Trust, Jose Sanchez, Attorney at Law and Lulac of Gregg County.

Precinct 2 Commissioner Bill McGinnis will be presented with the Award for Juvenile Impact during the 87th Annual County Judges and Commissioners Association Conference in Corpus Christi on October 8.
Commissioner McGinnis was nominated for the award after coordinating efforts to refurbish unclaimed bicycles and redistribute them to needy youths in the community. In April, 2009, with the approval of the Smith County Commissioners Court, he delivered over a dozen bicycles to Henry Marsh Bell Lodge # 1371 in Whitehouse. For the past fifteen years, the lodge has received donated bikes and refurbished them to give to children in need.

The bikes donated by Smith County had been recovered by the Smith County Sheriff’s Department, but never reclaimed. As part of the countywide clean-up effort, they were identified by the clean-up committee as surplus.

“I’m very proud to have won this award. When the bikes came to my attention through my wife Lynn and her Smith County Clean-up Committee, cialis for I immediately thought of the program at Henry Marsh Bell Lodge.” Commissioner McGinnis said. “But, above and beyond any award my peers may give me, I have the greater reward of knowing that some needy kids will have lots of fun Buy Amoxil Online without prescription on those bikes.”

Do you have days you don’t look forward to? Or do you have days you dread with every fiber of your being?
Recently, I heard someone quote a favorite Bible passage in a way that has me thinking about my days ahead in a fresh light. He said, “This is the day the Lord hath made, we will rejoice and be glad in it.”
(Psalms 118:24)

I concede that every day is ordered by the Lord. And if the purchase antibiotics online Lord — who is good, who is Love — made each day, then every day must surely have something good about it.

I came across a compelling quote that was attributed to Muhammad Ali: “Don’t count the days, make the days cialis for count.” And that is exactly what I would like to do this week. I want to make the most of every hour of each day.

I love that Paul tells us, “Now is the day….” And I love the line in The Lord’s Prayer that says, “Give us this day our daily bread.” This day — today — the Lord is going to give us everything we need to survive. That’s comforting!

The Children of Israel learned to trust that day by day manna would be supplied to them. And they were instructed to pick up only the manna they needed for each day. They didn’t need to worry about gathering and saving bread for tomorrow because tomorrow there would be new bread for them to eat.

Do you find it hard to trust that the Lord will give you whatever you need each day? Oh but you can!
No doubt every day will make its demands of us — some more than others. But we have God’s promise of daily bread.

Have a fabulous day, my friends, and may you make each and every day the best it can be. God will help you!

Here’s another reason to work on enjoying your family time:

2. Your family time is short–so make some happy memories!

Your kids are only going to be with you for a few years, so make the most of it. I have joined many of you who look back and cialis 2.5mg price agree those years passed too quickly. Psalm 90 says God is from everlasting to everlasting. Even if you get to live 70 years, that’s just a snap of the finger compared to God’s eternity.
James writes: “What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.” (James 4:14) Turn to the person next to you and say, “You don’t have very long to live.” Say, “Time is running out.” Say, “You’d better live for God and live for your family.” It’s obvious how much I love music because I want to use another music illustration.

Wayne Watson is a Christian songwriter and artist. He wrote a song about how quickly our kids grow up and move away. I mentioned in the first message in this series that husbands and wives had better focus on loving each other because one day it will be just the two of you.

The song speaks to that as well. The title of the song is, “Water colored ponies.” It’s one of my very Cipro favorites and I usually cry when I hear it. Treasure your family time. Invest it wisely. Manage your time as a gift from God. Enjoy your family time.

Are you living for this time, or are you living for eternity? The third chapter of Ecclesiastes is all about time. It says, “To every season, there is a time. A time to be born, a time to die…” it goes on and on and was even a song recorded by the Byrds in the 1960s. But the most important verse in that chapter is Ecclesiastes 3:11: “He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end.”

God has placed eternity in our hearts. In other words, we have the ability to know there is an eternity–that this life is not all there is. You should invest plenty of time in your family. But understand the very best thing you can do with your time is to invest in eternity. Psalm 90:12 says, “teach us to number our days aright.” That means there is a right way to number your days and a wrong way to number your days. If you live to be 70 that means you’ll have about 25,000 days. When we are born, we start numbering them, day 1, day 2, day 3 etc.

God numbers them differently and so should we. When we are born, He numbers them, 25,000; 24,999, 24,998…The thing is, we don’t ever know where the count down is at any moment. 10, 9, 8, 7, 6,…when we get to zero we expect something to happen. It’s not the end, it’s the beginning of the flight of the Space Shuttle, or it’s the beginning of the New Year in Times Square.

When your countdown gets to the end, what’s going to happen to you? You are running out of time. Have you invested time to get to know your Creator? Is your life anchored in the One who created time and who is not bound by time? If you don’t know Him, today is the perfect time to trust Him.

Winter annual weeds stand out like a sore thumb, especially when your warm season lawn grass is dormant. They can invade many areas within your landscape, especially those sites where the turf density has been reduced and bare soil exists. Therefore, making sure you go into the winter months with a healthy, buy doxycycline online dense turfgrass is your best defense against these winter pests. Another approach is to use a pre-emergent herbicide to control them. Winter annual weeds germinate in the late summer/early fall season. They will live during the winter and mature in the spring, then die. These are plants that come back each year from seed. Examples of winter annual weeds include: annual ryegrass, annual bluegrass, rescue grass, bur-clover, name brand cialis chickweed, henbit, and mustard weeds. Control of these weeds can be accomplished, but applications of the correct pre-emergent herbicide have to be made at the proper time. Early to mid-September is an ideal time to apply pre-emerge herbicides in Northeast Texas.

Remember, you are controlling germinating seeds—so this pre-emergent herbicide needs to be applied prior to germination. If you are working with a lawn care company, visit with them about their approach to these pests—sometimes they use products that will control the weeds prior to or just after germination.

It is always good to have communication between you and the company you are working with. Please make sure you read the labels on all pesticides and calibrate your spreader/sprayer.

If you have had major disease problems in your lawn, especially the dreaded disease take-all patch that has given many homeowners major headaches. I would not apply herbicides. Apply the correct fall fertilization, irrigate when needed and mow at the correct height. A fungicide application for take-all patch applied late September could be beneficial for reducing disease problems.
