	MyWestTexas.com - Kel Seliger begins race for senate seat
		Just like Bivins did two years ago, Seliger officially kicked off his election bid in Howard County, showing respect for the newest member of the district and at the same time serving a warning to the other candidates in the race that the former mayor of Amarillo will be a most formidable candidate.

		Seliger, who recently gave up his place on the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission to run for state senate, is also well-versed in school finance and other education issues; however, he warns no one is just going to Austin and wave a magic wand to improve Texas' school situation.

		Lake Seliger was formerly considered to be the principal source;but that distinction is now given to a small spring issuing beneath a chapel (57° 15' N.; 32° 30' E.) in the midst of a large marsh to the west of Seliger.
		The stream first traverses several small lakes, all having the same level, and, after its confluence with the Runa, enters Lake Volga.
		The gradual elevation of the whole of northern Russia and Siberia, and the consequent draining of the marshes, is one of these deeper-seated, ampler causes; another is the desiccation of the lakes all over the northern hemisphere.
