Bush to coordinate the transition of the base to civilian use, is working to create new jobs by turning the base into a self-sufficient business and research center.  Market Lubbock Inc. has worked with the LRRA since the base closed to bring companies from around the country to Reese.  The Texas Tech University Institute of Environmental and Human Health is already headquartered there, as is the Reese Campus of South Plains College.  For more information, or for a tour of Reese Center, call 806 885 6592.</p> </blockquote> </td> <td BGCOLOR="#000000" width="15">  </td> <td ALIGN="center" BGCOLOR="#99CCFF" VALIGN="TOP" rowspan="6" width="150" height="100%"> <table WIDTH="100%" BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="2" CELLSPACING="0" id="table2"> <tr> <td bgcolor="#99CCFF" height="20" align="center" width="150">  </td> </tr> <tr> <td bgcolor="#000099" height="20" align="center" width="150">  </td> </tr> <tr> <td bgcolor="#FFFFFF" height="150" align="center" width="150"> <p>  </td> </tr> <tr> <td bgcolor="#000099" height="20" align="center" width="150">  </td> </tr> <tr> <td bgcolor="#FFFFFF" height="20" align="center" width="150">  <center> <form method="get" action="http://www.google.com/custom" target="google_window"> <table bgcolor="#ffffff"> <tr><td align="center" height="32" width="150"> <br/> <input type="text" name="q" size="18" maxlength="255" value=""></input> </td></tr> <tr><td align="center" width="150"> <input type="submit" name="sa" value="Google Search"></input> <input type="hidden" name="client" value="pub-6116290428025371"></input> <input type="hidden" name="forid" value="1"></input> <input type="hidden" name="ie" value="ISO-8859-1"></input> <input type="hidden" name="oe" value="ISO-8859-1"></input> <input type="hidden" name="safe" value="active"></input> <input type="hidden" name="cof" value="GALT:#008000;GL:1;DIV:#336699;VLC:663399;AH:center;BGC:FFFFFF;LBGC:000000;ALC:0000FF;LC:0000FF;T:000000;GFNT:0000FF;GIMP:0000FF;LH:90;LW:486;L:http://www.lubbocktv.com/lubbockhospitality.jpg;S:http://www.lubbockhospitality.com;FORID:1;"></input> <input type="hidden" name="hl" value="en"></input> </td></tr></table> </form> </center>  </td> </tr> <tr> <td bgcolor="#000099" height="20" align="center" width="150">  </td> </tr> <tr> <td BGCOLOR="#000099" height="20" align="center" width="150">  </td> </tr> <tr><td BGCOLOR="#99CCFF" align="center" height="40" width="150">  </td></tr> </table>  </td> <td ALIGN="center" BGCOLOR="#000000" VALIGN="TOP" width="17">  </td></tr> <tr> <td BGCOLOR="#000000" VALIGN="top" width="15">  </td> <td VALIGN="top" bgcolor="#000000" width="15">  </td> <td BGCOLOR="#000000" width="15">  </td> <td ALIGN="center" BGCOLOR="#000000" VALIGN="TOP" width="17">  </td></tr> <tr> <td BGCOLOR="#000000" VALIGN="top" width="15">  </td> <td VALIGN="top" bgcolor="#000000" width="15">  </td> <td BGCOLOR="#000000" width="15">  </td> <td ALIGN="center" BGCOLOR="#000000" VALIGN="TOP" width="17">  </td></tr> <tr> <td BGCOLOR="#000000" VALIGN="top" width="15"> <br> </td> <td VALIGN="top" bgcolor="#000000" width="15">  </td> <td BGCOLOR="#000000" width="15">   </td> <td ALIGN="center" BGCOLOR="#000000" VALIGN="TOP" width="17">   </td></tr> <tr> <td BGCOLOR="#000000" rowspan="3" width="15">   </td> <td VALIGN="top" bgcolor="#000000" width="15" height="0" rowspan="2">  </td> <td BGCOLOR="#000000" width="15">   </td> <td BGCOLOR="#000000" ALIGN="center" VALIGN="BOTTOM" width="15" rowspan="2">   </td> </tr> <tr> <td bgcolor="#99CCFF" width="590" align="center" height="150"> <blockquote> <hr> </blockquote> <p align="center"><b>| <a target="_self" href="../apartments">Apartments</a> | <a href="../realestate">Real Estate</a> | <a href="../schools">Schools</a> | <a target="_self" href="../Information">Information</a> | <a target="_self" href="../parks">Parks</a> | <a target="_self" href="../movies">Movies</a> | <a href="../tv">TV</a> |<br>| <a href="../map">Map</a> | <a target="_self" href="../calendar">Event Calendars</a> | <a target="_self" href="../guest">Guest book</a> | <a target="_self" href="../news">News</a> | <a target="_self" href="../weather">Weather</a> | <a target="_self" href="../sports">Sports</a> |<br>| <a target="_self" href="../suggest3146">Suggest A Site</a> | <a target="_blank" href="../badlink">Report A Bad Link</a> |<br>| <a target="_self" href="../marketing">Advertise</a> | <a target="_self" href="../contact">Contact</a> |</b></p> </td> <td BGCOLOR="#000000" width="15">  </td> </tr> <tr> <td bgcolor="#000000" width="149" align="center"> <p> <font face="Arial Rounded MT Bold" size="2" color="#FFFFFF"> <a style="color: #FFFFFF;
