There’s ice skating, ballet/performances and holiday films. It sounds like there’s a little something for [...]

The Hilton-America Hotel, downtown is helping some of our area’s homeless with their eco-friendly initiative. I toured the kitchen and loading dock yesterday…to discover that what I thought was a PLASTIC to-go box…was not plastic at all. I couldn’t believe it! Check it out.

The Gulf Coast Regional Blood Center had to rebuild their Mobile Operations Complex after a fire destroyed the original warehouse back in 2005.
The new facility isn’t “just a new building…” it has environmentally friendly features. Examples: Dual flush toilets – why did it take so long for this concept to hit the streets? [...]

I shot this story on MLK Day (2009) and was pleasantly surprised at the outcome of this mural. A local clinic in North Houston (Yale near Crosstimbers) agreed to let volunteers paint on the side of the brick building to honor Dr. King and newly sworn in, President Obama.

I also want to take a moment [...]

How exciting!! I have never seen USA citizens as motivated, politically, as the past few months. Today, KPRC was exclusive in setting up a phone bank to help Houstonians with any last minute voting questions. Members from The League of Women Voters volunteered their time to answer the phones. Laura Blackburn, the President of the Houston Chapter [...]
