The scene outside of the Tarrant County Convention Center was typical — friends and family posing for pictures; flowers and balloons being given as congratulatory gifts; kids squirming in their dress clothes.

Thank you for sharing!
As anyone who has broken a New Year’s resolution on Jan. 2 can attest, it is much easier to set goals than it is to reach them.

Northwest Campus Gets Creative with Earth Day
Although NASA’s Kepler Space Telescope has identified more than 2,300 potential planet candidates outside of our solar system, this earth is still the only place we know of that sustains life.
