Wise may refer to:
Texas /ˈtɛksəs/ (Spanish: Texas or Tejas [ˈtexas]) is a state in the United States of America. It is the second most populous and second largest state by area in the US. Geographically located in the south central part of the country, Texas shares an international border with Mexico to the south and borders the states of New Mexico to the west, Oklahoma to the north, Arkansas to the northeast, and Louisiana to the east. Texas has an area of 268,820 square miles (696,200 km2) and a growing population of over 27.5 million residents (July 2015).
Houston is the largest city in Texas and the fourth-largest in the United States, while San Antonio is the second largest in the state and seventh largest in the United States. Dallas–Fort Worth and Greater Houston are the fourth and fifth largest United States metropolitan statistical areas, respectively. Other major cities include Austin (the state capital) and El Paso. Texas is nicknamed the Lone Star State to signify Texas as a former independent republic, and as a reminder of the state's struggle for independence from Mexico. The "Lone Star" can be found on the Texan state flag and on the Texan state seal. The origin of the state name, Texas, is from the word, "Tejas", which means 'friends' in the Caddo language.

Chased a long-track supercell from the Clay/Jack county lines southeast into Denton County on the afternoon of April 11. Witnessed a rotating wall cloud southeast of Newport before the storm became outflow dominant. Got chased by a horrifying hail core on 380 until I let it hit me near Krum. The full chase log is available on our website at http://texasstormchasers.com/chases/2016-storm-chases/april-11-2016/

Nothing special, just a little video of the coon we caught today using Dp traps with tiny white marshmallows and cheap dry cat food as bait.
This is a little video I put together while trapping on a friends 26 acre place just a little west of Springtown, Tx. The back of his place has a large wash out with a small year round creek. This is the second check with now a total of 24 trap nights. After today I have nineteen different sets out including one snare. Out of the five coon caught, two were released because they were too young. The only other catch so far was a large possum. Only one other trap was disturbed requiring remake where the pan had been uncovered.

Summary of the August 4, 2016 Weatherford College Board of Trustees meeting: The Weatherford College Board of Trustees adopted a proposed 2016 tax rate of 12.019 cents per $100 valuation during their monthly meeting Thursday afternoon. A maintenance and operations rate of 11.376 cents and a debt service rate of 0.643 cents comprise the total rate. The proposed total rate is slightly higher than the current rate of 11.364 cents, but remains lower than the effective rate of 12.0876. The effective rate is the tax rate needed to bring in the same amount of property tax revenue as the previous year. The slight increase is a result of a decrease in certified property values adopted by the Parker County Appraisal District for 2016. WC President Dr. Kevin Eaton said the tax rate will result in ...
