4B Board exploring ideas for a vocational technology building at NCTC-Bowie
By BARBARA GREEN
Could a new industrial technology center be in North Central Texas College-Bowie’s future?
The Bowie 4B Economic Development Sales Corporation board is gathering information on a possible project that would in turn be presented to the city council and public for consideration.
Janis Crawley, executive director for the 4B board, said at its last meeting on May 23 the directors voted to retain Bundy, Young, Sims and Potter Architects, the same company that designed the new 10,000 square-foot Information Technology Center that opened in March at the Gainesville campus.
Staff from the architectural firm met with the 4B to discuss the possibilities of using the same blueprint on the Bowie campus property, which Crawley said could save a lot of money.

The Garden Guy surfed the web and stumbled across a photo you most likely have never seen. It featured three Proven Winners National Plants of the Year in a wonderful combination.
The flowers were the Safari Dusk Jamesbrittenia or South African phlox which is the ‘Annual of the Year.’ The combo also featured Supertunia Hoopla Vivid Orchid the ‘Petunia of the Year’ and Heart to Heart Chinook the ‘Caladium of the Year.’

Food is supposed to bring people together.
It sits at the center of our holidays, church potlucks, birthday parties, first dates, family reunions and late-night kitchen conversations. In Texas especially, I feel like feeding people is one of the purest forms of love we know. We celebrate with casseroles, comfort with pies, and gather around smoked meats and shared desserts.
Food is hospitality. Food is belonging.
But for some people, food is also calculation.
Before the appetizers even arrive, some of us are already scanning ingredients, evaluating risk, rehearsing questions, and trying to determine whether asking those questions is about to make everyone at the table uncomfortable.
