Guadalupe County temporarily lifts burn ban after recent rains

Cindy Aguirre-Herrera

(Guadalupe County) -Residents in Guadalupe County are getting a brief window to conduct outdoor burning. County leaders have temporarily lifted the burn ban – a bam that had just been extended days earlier.

The decision was made after recent rainfall improved ground moisture levels across the county. The temporary lift will remain in place through Sunday, March 15, 2026, with the burn ban scheduled to go back into effect on Monday, March 16.

County fire officials say the recent rains provided a short-term

reduction in wildfire risk, allowing residents limited time to address brush and vegetation.

During the temporary lift, residents are reminded to follow county burn rules:

· Fires must be attended at all times

· Only natural vegetation, such as brush or tree limbs, may be burned

· Burn piles must be at least 100 feet from structures

Officials say safety remains a priority and urges residents to use caution while burning.

Women, continued.

“Honestly, I wasn’t upset that I didn’t get called for a runner-up. I was very happy for the first runner up. She is my friend. Her name is Kimberly Patino. It was just such an emotional moment really because there’s so many deserving – so many wonderful young women sharing the stage an when they called my name, honestly, I was trying to not cry. If you look back on videos, you can see me put my head down for a second, but I just felt really honored and I was proud outside of myself – but I was also proud of the other women that represented themselves that day,” said Henley.

As the newly crowned Distinguished Young Woman of Seguin, Henley will spend the coming year representing the program throughout the community while promoting its mission of leadership, scholarship and service.

Henley says she hopes to use her title to make a meaningful impact in the community and continue building on the values the program represents.

“This coming year, I know for the Distinguished Woman last year – her name is Eleanor (Crettenden) and I know she goes and competes in state and we do a lot of the parades but I want to see maybe about doing some community service projects just to put DYW out there and to showcase to young women that hey this is something you can do,” said Henley.

As part of sharing awareness on the program, Henley encourages younger students to consider participating in the program in the future. She says the experience offers confidence, friendships and opportunities that extend far beyond the stage.

“I think it’s a great program. I made a lot of really great friends. It’s honestly very empowering, very inspiring just to share the whole experience with these outstanding young women and I highly encourage any young girl considering the program to just go for it,’ said Henley.

Henley was joined on stage by several other young ladies who were also recognized for their talents.

Kimberly Patino was named first runner-up, while Eva Sarmiento earned second runner-up honors and received the Scholastic award. Rylee Hyatt was selected as third runner-up and also captured the Spirit and Talent awards.

Program organizers says this year’s event showcased an impressive group of young women who demonstrated talent, academic excellence and leadership while competing for scholarship awards to support their future college goals.

The Distinguished Young Women program, formerly known as Junior Miss, has celebrated young women in the Seguin community for more than six decades, continuing its mission to empower participants and recognize their achievements both on and off the stage.

FDA Vaccine Chief Stepping Down Again

(Silver Spring, MD) -- The FDA says its vaccine chief will leave the agency next month. Dr. Vinay Prasad’s year-long tenure included a brief resignation last summer after disputes over a paused gene therapy shipment. He also sent a memo to FDA staff claiming COVID vaccines had killed children -- statements he did not back up with evidence. Several former FDA commissioners denounced those remarks. Prasad’s departure adds to a growing list of leadership changes across federal health agencies.

Study Forever Chemicals May Speed Up Aging In Middle Aged Men

(China) -- A new study shows middle aged men may age faster with exposure to specific forever chemicals. The study in the journal Frontiers in Aging shows researchers analyzed chemicals known as PFAS in the blood stream and chemical changes to DNA to see how quickly their cells were aging. Results show higher levels of two chemicals were associated with faster biological aging in men 50 to 64 but not in women. Researchers at Tong University in China says Midlife is a sensitive biological window where the body becomes more susceptible to age-related stressors, which could explain why that age group reacts stronger to chemical exposure.

Study: DST Has Effect On Working Dogs

(Toronto) -- Daylight Saving Time has documented health effects on humans, but it can also impact dogs. It can cause some house pets to wonder why their feeding schedule seems different at first, but it can also have a more significant effect on working dogs. Researchers at the University of Toronto looked at how Daylight Saving Time affected sled dogs. They found that the time switch led to an increase in activity before their handlers arrived, but the dogs got back to normal after one or two days.

Study: Overusing AI Can Give Workers ‘AI Brain Fry’

(Cambridge, MA) -- A new study suggests AI may be giving some workers what researchers are calling “brain fry.” The study published in the Harvard Business Review found that people constantly using multiple AI tools reported more decision fatigue and more errors. The study also found that AI can reduce burnout and create it. The study revealed that less brain fry was seen among employees whose managers were intentional with their AI use.
