Once the smoke from the fireworks clears, settle in for Shark Week, which begins July 5. A mako shark some 60 miles off the coast of Port Aransas was bagged, tagged and released by Harte Research Center scientist Greg Stunz. Footage from the shark cam will be featured on “Monster Mako” on the Discovery Channel. Last year, the Texas A&M-Corpus Christi researcher starred in "Monster Hammerhead."

Co-authored by two local state elected officials, the bill allots Corpus Christi 2 percent of the Hotel Occupancy Tax for beach maintenance. Port Aransas’s 1 percent was doubled to 2 percent. Find out when the first checks arrive and how they will be spent.
