Flight seating tips for comfort and service
If hungry on board, sit near the galley which is forward in first class and aft in economy. Passengers near the galley are served first. For noise sensitivity, pick seats near or in front of the wings as jet noise travels back from engines toward the rear. Reservations for hotels are easy with Holiday Inn’s Holidex system to ensure a waiting room.

Pecans Growers Eye Texas Pecan Industry Growth
In 1919 Texas designated the pecan as the state tree. Professor J Benton Storey of Texas A&M and the Pecan Growers Association cite 178 580 acres of improved and 604 476 acres of native pecans in Texas with thinning of native groves to boost furniture quality. An orchard can yield about 2 000 pounds per acre annually at 15 years, with sun between tree shadows about 10 to 12 feet. Long term profits hinge on good management and patience.
