On Saturday, Dec. 4, 2004 at
Edinburg High School, the road to
Texas Music Education Association
All-State continued for brillant Band
students from across the Rio Grande
Valley.
Stretching from Brownsville to
Roma, band students who had
advanced to the Pre Area TMEA
auditions participated in a highly
competitive and grueling audition.
Only the best the Valley has to
offer would advance to the Area
"level auditions to be held at Alice
High School in Alice, Texas on
Jan. 8, 2005.
Fifty Roma High School band
students were among the best to
advance from the West Zone
District Auditions. A face-off
between band students from the
West Zone and East Zone was in
the balance.
The Roma ISD is proud to
announce that 36 fine musicians
from the Mighty Gladiator Band
have advanced to Area auditions in
Alice in January 2005. This
achievement will get these students
one step closer to TMEA All-State.
A Roma ISD spokesman
emphasized, "On behalf of the
Roma ISD Band Department, we
would like to congratulate all
participants and their parents. These
students have displayed the
commitment and perseverance that
will make them productive citizens
and leaders in our society. We
commend these students for their
commitment to excellence."

Businesses in some Texas
counties, including Starr
County, have until Feb. 8, 2005
to file applications for low-interest
disaster loans from the U.S. Small
Business Administration (SBA).
The SBA's Economic Injury
Disaster Loans are available for
businesses dependent on farmers and
ranchers sustaining crop losses due
to excessive rain, flash flooding,
flooding, hail, and high winds that
occurred on April 4.
Farmers and ranchers are not
eligible for these SBA loans.
Businesses in the following
counties are eligible to apply;
Starr. Brooks, Duval, Hidalgo,
Jim Hogg, Jim Wells, Kenedy,
Kleberg.
Applications and further
information can be obtained by
calling the SBA toll-free at 1-800-
366-6303 or TDD 817-267-4688
for the hearing impaired.
These loans are intended to assist
businesses in offsetting working
capital losses which they suffered as
a result of the severe weather
reducing the crop income of the area
farmers and ranchers. Small
businesses claiming to have been
physically injured by the disaster
are not eligible.
Persons seeking more
information are encouraged to visit
SBA's website at
www.sba.gov/disaster.
According to the Texas Beef
Council, a number of national and
state programs were utilized in
November 2004 in an effort to
increase public demand for beef.
TBC Studies EU's
Potential for Beef
The Texas Beef Council studied
the European Union beef market in
November. TBC's goal was to
determine if the EU offered enough
value to encourage a Texas produce!
to become certified to produce for
that market. The EU market is 3.5
times larger than Japan, but it bans
all beef that is not certified as non-
hormone treated.
Certification audits can be costly
for producers. "In today's market
climate, (the EU is) probably
minimally rewarding at this time,"
said Dan Dierschke, TBC chairman.
But he added in times of lower
prices, the EU could be "much
more advantageous" for Texas
producers.
10,000 Walkers Carry
Beef's Logo
The beef checkoff participated in
the American Heart Association's
Heart Walk Nov. 6 in Houston. It
presented 10,000 walkers with t-
shirts imprinted with the Texas
Beef Council's logo and the Internet
address to TBC's searchable recipe
web site, txbeef.org. The
checkoff also provided samples of
healthy 95 percent lean ground beef
burgers and goodie bags with beef
nutrition tips and recipes.
Promoting Healthy, Low-
Fat Beef Tanialei
Healthier ways to make San
Antonio's traditional Christmas
tamales were the focus of recent
adult community classes in the
Alamo City. The Texas Beef
Council and San Antonio registered
dietitian Lisa Johnson showed
participants how shredded beef can
make great low-fat holiday tamales.
The classes were part of the San
Antonio Fit City initiative.
From Russia to Texas for
l*eT
Seven Russian chefs visited
Texas in early November as guests
of the beef checkoff program. They
visited Texas restaurants to learn
new concepts in preparing, serving
and menuing beef items.
The checkoff programs
emphasized underutilized cuts like
brisket and shoulder roasts to the
chefs. These cuts sell at a lower
cost than steaks but still provide
high customer value. The chefs also
visited Dudley Brothers Hereford
Ranch at Comanche as guests ol
the Texas Beef Council and the
U.S. Meat Export Federation.
Anger is seldom without argu-
ment but seldom with a good
one.
