<script>

    // OVERVIEW OF HOW ADS WORK:
    // Ads have gone through a few iterations on dmn, the most recent work attempting to bring sanity back to the situation.
    // There are three primary facets of ads: Normal On-The-Fly Ads, Roadblock-Ready Ads, and Prebidding Ads
    //
    // Normal On-The-Fly Ads, is the ability to support building and rendering google dfp ads at any point in a page's lifecycle.
    // Things like ajax based rendering, feed loads, or building ads with JS though directly get an ad from Google for that slot.
    //
    // Roadblock-Ready Ads, is the ability to target all ads on first page load with a specific set of ads for a campaign takeover.
    // An example would be the Superbowl, if the NFL wanted to render a Superbowl ad in every slot on the page we need to support that
    // with what is called "roadblock" ads. Google requires all of these ads to be built in the <head> and to be requested in their
    // single Page Load request they make.
    //
    // Prebidding Ads, is the ability to allow bidders at the Prebid.js auction to bid on rendering in a slot on the page. This results
    // in more ad revenue than a standard google ad. For this to work all ads must be defined and then sent to Prebid.js to auction
    // them, then returned winner information appended to the ad before Google renders it.
    //
    // Given this, the general order of operations for ads is:
    //   1. Define all ads that would appear on first page load for the page
    //   2. Define bidders for the ads that will appear on first page load too
    //   3. Make sure Google is setup to render all first page load ads in a single request
    //   4. Send the ad info to auction with an async callback when completed
    //   5. Additionally set a max timeout before we quit waiting for action to complete
    //   6. Apply prebid callback data to ads and call "display" before the page finishes loaded
    //   7. Google takes all ad data and returns ads, supporting potentially both Roadblocks and Prebid
    //   8. Disable single page load request for Google ads
    //   9. All remaining and dynamic ads created at any point then individually make calls to render without Auction

<p>Apparently there is a $10 billion "rainy day" fund in Texas. Well, that rainy day has come, and that fund should be used to cover costs associated with Hurricane Harvey in all affected cities, including Dallas. Taxpayers should not be charged until this rainy day fund is depleted.</p><p><em>Betsy Whitfill, Dallas/Lakewood</em></p><p><b>Learn from Houston</b></p><p>Re: "Houston's sprawl left drainage grid obsolete," Wednesday news story.</p><p>I would encourage each reader of <em>The Dallas Morning News</em> to take a moment and reread this article concerning Houston's shortage of new water reservoirs and a failure to adequately improve the Buffalo Bayou outlet. Developers have blocked the construction of an additional large reservoir. Who gains except a few wealthy and connected developers, who probably have bought elected officials through campaign donations or extensive lobbying?</p><p>The cost to Houston and to the nation for the cleanup from this event will be born by all, but the rewards for inadequate preparation and uncontrolled suburban expansion enrich a few. Local control makes for a good bumper sticker, but without dispassionate oversight and regulations that look into the future instead of one focused on present gain and enrichment, we are all doomed to repeated events like we have seen this week and will continue to pay the cost.</p>

<p><em>C. Stephen Young, Arlington</em></p><p><b>Proof of global warming</b></p><p>Two important observations that should come out of Hurricane Harvey may not receive the attention they deserve. One is that the models used to predict the extremely complex weather patterns of Harvey have been quite accurate. This suggests that the models used to forecast the consequences and causes of global warming may also be valid, as a majority of climate scientist claim.</p><p>Next, while there will be no definitive proof that the recent severe weather that has been experienced globally has been caused by global warming, it certainly has to be strongly considered as one of the most likely explanations. The administration must stop its policies that exacerbate the climate problem and support those that will help combat and prepare the nation for what is the most existential problem facing the world.</p><p><em>David Schriftman, Murphy</em></p><p><b>Accept the science</b></p>

<p>Again we see the power and horrors of nature at its worst in Houston. Why are 1-in-500-years weather events occurring about one in one year when so many, including our leaders, doubt the existence of climate change?</p><p>Yes, weather changes each day, but the changes in the extremes, the highest, lowest, wettest and driest should not all occur in one lifetime. Climate change is real and the sooner this is accepted, the sooner some world of science can start to work on solutions.</p><p>Prayers should be given for those suffering and for guidance. Balance is needed by many, at many levels.</p><p><em>Dennis Fitzgerald, Melbourne, Australia</em></p><p><b>Republicans have a choice</b></p><p>The Republican Party needs to make a decision: Spend a relatively small amount of money now to reduce pollution and change energy sources to mitigate climate change or spend a large sum of money every hurricane season to repair and rebuild storm-ravaged towns and cities, such as Houston.</p>
<div id="dfp-injection--506319c991b7279ca9d5" class="dfp sponsor-break inline-ad js-inline-ad js-ad js-ad-dynamic" data-ad-config='{"id":"dfp-injection--506319c991b7279ca9d5","sizes":"[[300,250]]","position":"PositionLazy","pageType":"article","collapse":true,"init":true,"responsive":[["992","480","[[300,250]]"],["0","0","[[300,250]]"]]}' ></div>
<p>Knowing how shortsighted the GOP has been on practically every issue, I can imagine what their choice will be.</p><p><em>Mark Bauer, Colleyville</em></p><p><b>New Jersey hasn't forgotten</b></p><p>I would like to present the view of a New Jersey resident on approving federal funding relief in light of the Hurricane Harvey disaster.</p><p>My heart goes out to the Texans who are suffering from this disaster. As a fellow American, I am urging my senators and congressmen from New Jersey to immediately, without any delay, approve all necessary funding to help with both the short- and long-term implications of Harvey. They will do what is necessary to get my fellow Americans in Houston, and the rest of Texas, back on their feet.</p><p>But that is not to say that I have forgotten how the entire Texas legislative contingent, save for one, let New Jersey and New York down when we were the ones in need. Hurricane Sandy devastated our region and we were the ones in need of help from our fellow Americans in Texas.</p>
<div id="dfp-injection--3eb78f4a14d5e1afeb50" class="dfp sponsor-break inline-ad js-inline-ad js-ad js-ad-dynamic" data-ad-config='{"id":"dfp-injection--3eb78f4a14d5e1afeb50","sizes":"[[300,250]]","position":"PositionLazy","pageType":"article","collapse":true,"init":true,"responsive":[["992","480","[[300,250]]"],["0","0","[[300,250]]"]]}' ></div>
<p>We in New Jersey will not allow our memory of that failure affect our choice now. We will do the right thing to provide you with all the help you need.</p><p>I simply want you to know the pain of your decisions not to help us in our moment of need has not dissipated.</p><p><em>Paul Russoniello, Haddonfield, N.J.</em></p><p><b>Just like Dunkirk</b></p><p>I am so pleased to see the outpouring of help for the flood victims from Harvey. The boat owners from Louisiana and Texas traveling to Houston to snatch people from flooded houses makes me proud.</p><p>I am reminded of the people of the United Kingdom who took their personal boats to rescue the trapped British soldiers from death at Dunkirk. They just did it. They knew there were people in trouble and danger and they took the risk to help. And so did the people of Texas and Louisiana. They went to the aid of people needing help and I wish I could have done the same.</p>

<p>My wife and I will have to be content with our donation to the Salvation Army and the Red Cross.</p><p><em>George Pich, Denton</em></p><p><b>Vote against Texas congressmen</b></p><p>Sam Houston was born at Timber Ridge, Va. Thus, a historical connection exists between my state of Virginia and Texas. I use this connection as a basis, perhaps somewhat tenuous, for presuming to make a recommendation to my Texas "cousins" as they now struggle with the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey.</p><p>Specifically, vote against each and every member of the Texas congressional delegation who, a few years ago, voted against federal aid for the Northeast after the disaster of Sandy. Sen. Ted Cruz heads that list.</p><p>Cruz has now explained that he voted against the Sandy relief bill because it contained $50 billion of "pork." The problem with that explanation is that it's not true, pure and simple. The Sandy relief bill paid not only for humanitarian aid but also for aid to various components of infrastructure, which was, in the long run, as important to the region as was the more immediate humanitarian aid.</p>
<div id="dfp-injection--1ac1b1fa6f49a5ea44d8" class="dfp sponsor-break inline-ad js-inline-ad js-ad js-ad-dynamic" data-ad-config='{"id":"dfp-injection--1ac1b1fa6f49a5ea44d8","sizes":"[[300,250]]","position":"PositionLazy","pageType":"article","collapse":true,"init":true,"responsive":[["992","480","[[300,250]]"],["0","0","[[300,250]]"]]}' ></div>
<p>In my opinion, Cruz is nothing more than a political opportunist, hungry for headlines and for power. Integrity and patriotism seem to mean nothing to him and his henchmen. Texans deserve better. We all deserve better.</p><p><em>Robert Adams, North Chesterfield, Va.</em></p><p><b>Taxpayers will bear the burden</b></p><p>As a former Houston resident/homeowner, my heart goes out to those impacted by the torrential rains; their lives will be altered for years.</p><p>My years in Houston convinced me that this metro area of around 6 million is largely built on a huge flood plain and the entire area has been an unfortunate experiment of what happens when the flood plain maps are toyed with and building and other regulations are close to non-existent.</p><p>Apparently, many residents have not purchased flood insurance and the National Flood Insurance Program is already nearing the free-market equivalency of bankruptcy.</p>
<div id="dfp-injection--f2a3969b71fba8974d68" class="dfp sponsor-break inline-ad js-inline-ad js-ad js-ad-dynamic" data-ad-config='{"id":"dfp-injection--f2a3969b71fba8974d68","sizes":"[[300,250]]","position":"PositionLazy","pageType":"article","collapse":true,"init":true,"responsive":[["992","480","[[300,250]]"],["0","0","[[300,250]]"]]}' ></div>
<p>Yet, we taxpayers will now be called upon to add to the national debt for what should be a personal responsibility and certainly not more than the responsibility of the state of Texas, many of whose elected leaders voted against aid to the victims of Hurricane Sandy in New Jersey and New York.</p><p>As taxpayers, we need to ask ourselves whether we need to continue to bail out over many generations those who need to rebuild homes along an ocean coast, an earthquake fault, in a wildfire-prone area, et al.</p><p><em>John W. Thomas, Fort Collins, Colo.</em></p><p><b>Picture of the year</b></p><p>Your front page picture on Monday of the Houston SWAT officer carrying the mother and baby summed up the total rescue efforts of many of Hurricane Harvey victims. The photographer should be photographer of the year and the picture, picture of the year.</p><p>Kudos to your photographer (Louis DeLuca) and please nominate this one for picture of the year.</p>

<p><em>Martha Callaway, Dallas</em></p><p><b>Texans of the Year</b></p><p>I would like to nominate the first responders and especially the citizen rescuers like the Cajun Navy and the Good Ol' Boys Navy that have given so much of themselves to help others after Hurricane Harvey.
