Beware of these COMICAL CAMPAIGNS

TELLING IT LIKE IT IS!

For the past 6 election cycles we have had in my estimation, a flurry of Office seekers of nonConsequential candidates and Campaign's, people who are making mockery of our (Black) political prowess and involvement. These Individuals in my earnest opinion are running SHADOW AND COVERT SIGN CAMPAIGNS, as well as FACEBOOK, and INSTAGRAM Social Media Campaigns with History or Body of Work, they have NO content, NO Engagement of the Issues, NO points of reference, NO sweat equity, and NO following, they are repeatedly running for office under NEW Slogans, New Positions sought after, New Districts or Offices and even NEW faces but the same OLD BROKE REFERENCE AND REPRESENTATION, it is High time that we STOP these Unpolished, Unproven, and Unprepared. In Summation it's enough that we have ENOUGH PISS POOR REPRESENTAION IN PUBLIC OFFICE / REPRESENTATION already and can ill afford to take on WATER from Meaningless and UNQUALIFIED glory seekers, only to become (in their minds) Elected

officials (really Elected VIP's) who seek to be above us and NOT Represent us the Constituent's. BEWARE OF THESE POLITICAL GRANDSTANDERS. This NOTE is the opinion and observation of Darryl E. Blair Sr (Personally) and is an entertaining article for thought.

COMICAL CAMPAIGNS.

Congratulations, CityLab, for your participation in making the world a healthier place!

As the school year continues, students are thriving in Dallas ISD’s newly renovated facilities, advanced scholastic programs, and flexible learning opportunities!

Students and staff are excited to continue the school year.

Athletic Highlights

About Aunt Bette’s Food Pantry: St. Philip’s established a food pantry on its campus over a decade ago in an effort to expand its hunger programming outreach to include more families and children. The establishment of Our Community Pantry in 2015, was a direct result of an unprecedented collaboration between city, corporate, and non-profit entities, including St. Philip’s, North Texas Food Bank, In the City for Good, and the City of Dallas. This collaboration provided an opportunity to revolutionize the way Hunger is addressed in South Dallas, and beyond.

pantry continued to serve clients and provide emergency pick-up options to neighbors in need by pivoting from client-choice shopping to a drive-thru with pre-packaged groceries. Recently, the Community Pantry returned to the client-choice model, allowing shoppers to select their favorite items, much like a grocery store, and currently serves over 850 households, 1,750 individuals, and distributes 700,000 pounds of food annually!

The pantry is located at 1502 Pennsylvania Avenue, adjacent to St. Philip’s campus.

The second iteration of this biennial event will include presentations from key ambassadors and stakeholders of Aunt Bette’s Community Pantry; an unveiling of its expansion plans; and a live cooking demonstration and tasting led by Los Angeles-based Chef Gabrielle McBay, an alumnae of St. Philip’s. Aunt Bette’s currently serves over 850 South Dallas households. All clients in attendance and in the week following will receive recipe cards for the dishes served at the tasting, the chefs’ selected food items, and Aunt Bette’s reusable tote.

in the restaurant and hospitality industries. She began at an early age with, “Linda’s Dessert Express”, where a strong passion for the restaurant business began. Mrs. Linda’s interest in the restaurant business didn’t stop at ownership; her experiences have led her to fulfill her ‘Dream” of becoming Henderson Chicken’s franchisor. Currently, Henderson Chicken has numerous franchises located throughout Texas, Louisiana and The Caribbean.

Mrs. Linda’s appreciation for her community has led to partnerships holding summer camps for youths

golfers, outstanding citizens, and future leaders of America.

As a teacher and mentor, Lee’s ability to nurture and motivate people through the sport of golf, in cities across the nation, has been extremely satisfying. Since 1986, thousands of boys and girls have gone through the Roaring Lambs golf program providing the opportunity to acquire the ability and desire to play golf in high school, graduate with honors from high school, and receive scholarships to play collegiate golf.

“It’s like a dream come true” were the remarks coming from Gladys Lee two weeks ago when she was recommended and officially approved to become the first African American female AIA golf Representative.

For over twenty-nine years, Gladys has been committed to improving the lives of people of all ages through the game of golf. The Roaring Lambs International Junior Golf Academy, a nonprofit 501(c)3 charitable organization established in 1986; a community-based organization focused on meeting the needs of multi-cultural adolescents ages five to eighteen, whose backgrounds are economically and socially diverse. Her commitment is to teach and promote golf to encourage women and adolescents to strive to be the highest caliber golfers in their class, while providing constructive outlets for anyone, regardless of race, creed, color or religion. Lee founded the program in 1986 in the Dallas/Fort Worth metropolitan area, and currently there are chapters based in Phoenix, Arizona; Detroit, Michigan; and Atlanta, Georgia. As a LPGA professional, her mission is to continue expanding the Roaring Lambs Junior Golf Academy nationally, and training students who desire to learn golf whether they aspire to be players, teachers, golf course managers or merchandisers.

There are many golf programs today that teach outstanding values and give adolescence the opportunity to develop, grow and focus on the commitment it takes to become future leaders, regardless of the sports or careers they choose. The opportunities Roaring Lambs Junior Golf Academy has provided for the past twentyfive years are expertly designed to train and assist young people to become competitive

In addition to years of experience and professional expertise, Lee has received numerous awards and special recognition. Prior to her golf aspirations and establishment of Roaring Lambs Junior Golf Academy, she worked for more than twenty years in the aerospace industry in a broad range of manufacturing operations such as shift manager, inventory control, procurement, and quality control for major aerospace manufacturers such as Lockheed Aircraft, Northrop Electronics, and Texas Instruments where she acquired valuable experience in human resources development and social services .

Subsequent to her corporate experience, Lee became a production coordinator for Dick Clark Productions (American Bandstand/ Miss Hollywood Pageant’s) in Burbank California where she was encouraged by Carrie Clark, who introduced her to the concept of “Golf is More Than a Game”, to follow her passion and aspire to new heights in golf.

Lee states “my greatest achievement’s and honor’s include playing golf three day’s with Byron Nelson’s wife ( Peggy) while Byron rode in a cart with us giving me one on one lesson’s critiquing my performance_ afterwards having lunch together. Second highlight was to have Tiger Woods recognize the Roaring Lambs as one of the Top Junior Golf Program’s in the U.S.A. which led to being featured on the NBC Tom Brokaw segment of “ Making A Difference”. Third spending three day’s with Dr. William Powell at Clearview “ America’s Golf Course” in Canton, Ohio. Fourth my Induction into the National Black Golf Hall of Fame in 2003, where I have served on the Board since 2006._ Receiving my LPGA Professional Golf Card and Professional Status has to be counted as one of my greatest achievements.”

Lee further states she is most proud of her position as the Head Golf Coach for both boy’s & girls at Estrella Foothills High School in Goodyear Arizona. It was The Athletic Director of Estrella that recommended her for the AIA position.

Lee has two children Kathy Hubbard and Byron Robinson, both of Dallas and for which she is truly thankful. She sincerely would like to thank all of her mentors such as LPGA co- founder Marilynn Smith, former USGA President Judy Bell, William Dickey, Founder and President of Bill Dickey Scholarship Association; and George Colebrook, President of Desert Mashie Golf Association, who has encouraged , prayed and continue in support of her dream…… Roaring Lambs International Junior Golf.

Rules Without a Ruling: Part I

prohibition of illegally intercepting or recording the electronic communications of the other party.

You cannot under any circumstances obtain electronic information by way of hacking, extortion, fraud, or any other illegal means. Even something as simple as logging into the other parties email and taking information is a surefire way to get both yourself and your attorney in serious trouble.

it. It will only backfire on you when the court divides the marital property. This includes what you would consider to be your separate property. A good rule of thumb is to treat everything like its community property until it is agreed or adjudicated that it’s not.

When you file for divorce in Dallas County Texas a set of orders come into effect. Neither you or your spouse need to file anything else or request that the orders, they simply exists because your divorce case exists. These orders are called Standing Orders, and they relate to children, pets, property, and the conduct of the parties to the suit.

The Dallas County Standing Orders are in effect automatically for every divorce suit and suit affecting the parent child relationship that is filed in Dallas County. Most of the orders are injunctions, meaning that they tell the parties to the suit what they are not allowed to do while the suit is in progress.

The first two sections deal with the children and pets related to the suit. As you could imagine, it orders that the parties refrain from fleeing with the kids to another state, talking negatively about the other party in front of the children, talking about the case in front of the kids, or harming or threatening to harm to family pet. These provisions are important as they help give the parties peace of mind during the stress of the suit.

Section three further concerns the conduct of the parties. It is more geared towards how the parties need to behave towards one another. For example, it prevents using vulgar or profane language with the other party. It also prohibits threatening or harassing the other party in any way, as well as prohibits parties from harming one another. The above injunctions are important and are usually obeyed without issue by anyone not wanting to tank their case. But there is another important and often overlooked provision, the

And finally, section four concerns how you are to treat property during a divorce. Once a divorce is active you cannot go and liquidate all the bank accounts, rack up a large amount of debt, sell your real estate, or damage or destroy your property. This is very important. Don’t do

In my experience many do not know about standing orders or that counties other than Dallas have them as well. They are an important part of a case, as they will provide you protections from the Court without request. Next week I will touch on the rest of the provisions in the Dallas standing orders. Provisions such as, insurance, party authorizations, and business records.

Dallas County District Attorney

I am Faith Johnson and I'm running for Dallas County District Attorney and I'm asking for your support.

One of the best ways to assess someone’s character and the quality of their output is to look at their past accomplishments, which I shared last week.

Another way is to hear from those who work around them day in and day out.

One of my proudest moments was when Michael Snipes, who was the first assistant district attorney working with me at the time, said, “For successfully prosecuting so many major cases, Faith Johnson is my Texan of the Year. To put it simply, when it comes to public servants, Judge Johnson is the best of us. No Texan has achieved more for

I was so humbled and honored to hear him say such wonderful words after so many years of pouring all I had into being smart on crime. I was also very humbled to hear The Dallas Morning News say of my previous work as the Dallas County District Attorney, “She's [Judge Faith Johnson] done an excellent job... She has promised a tough but fair pursuit of justice and has earned the community's trust.” And I’m hungry to do it again!

Please come see me at our DeSoto Campaign Headquarters at DeSoto Campaign Office 1223 E. Beltline Rd Ste 114 Desoto, TX 75115 and visit https://faithjohnsonforda.com/ for more information on me and my race for Dallas County District Attorney.

I’m asking for your vote on November 8, 2022 for Dallas County District Attorney. And please share with your friends and family. It’s going to take all of us to get Dallas County to where it needs to be!

A modern Fair Park in South Dallas means bigger shows, more entertainment and consistent local and tourist traffic flowing through our community. The upgrades will spur neighboring economic development. Visitor traffic will open opportunities for new venues in South Dallas that can flourish, driven by a fresh vision and streets flowing with people, activity and energy.

You pick em Sports Den “The Know It Alls”

Family, we took a loss in that Eagles game but w so they’re basically out of it now. The Eagles are actually trending to be a lock for the division title which is an automatic ticket to the playoffs. Based on their remaining schedule and momentum they have, they could easily win our division; leaving us fighting for a wildcard spot to get into the playoffs.

Most of us didn’t expect to still be in the playoff hunt when Dak went down and y’all know I’m right lol. Like most of Cowboys Nation, I was on that train thinking “THE SEASON IS OVER”. We came into the season losing some big pieces to our success last year. I was NOT a fan of giving up Amari Cooper, was not a fan of letting Gregory go, and was not a fan of losing Collins. Thru it all though, we made it through the storm an d now we 4-2.

Cooper Rush helped keep us stay in the hunt but even he said it’s our defense that’s been winning games. We are ranked #3 defense in the league. Our pass rush is lethal allowing our DBs to cover better. Our defense against the rush needs some work but I know we can clean that up. Eagles gameplanned us great with the style of offense the ran. They found a way to neutralize our best player and we didn’t have a counter for it. It was a learning experience so we’ll be prepared the next time while getting better in the process. Up until now, we’ve held opponents under 20pts a game, so all that was needed from the offense was a couple TDs.

Love him or hate him, Dak coming back will be great for the team. He’s 25-6 Vs the NFC East which means we are either winning our division to go to the playoffs or we are in the mix. There will be games that we need our qb to make a play and not just run the offense and that’s ALWAYS been the difference, and that’s where Dak comes in. I do believe that Rush opened his eyes and helped him understand that he doesn’t always have to be the one that makes a play. Trust your offense and don’t force anything. That 2019 Dak is who we want lol. The key to our offense is ball control and keeping the chains moving. We don’t have the offense to go deep all the time so we have to make sure we stay balanced with the run. That has been the key going back to last year. At the end of the day, recognize the team you have and play to their strengths. With our physical defense, I’d go into every game with that mentality. To win in the NFC, you gotta be physical. We are not a finesse team by any means and to be honest, I think these boys see that we gotta be physical now. Defense already there, we just need the offense to follow suit.

Bill Blair Legends understands the importance of organized sports. Youth participating in the Bill Blair Legends program will learn the importance of character, leadership, social skills, discipline, dedication of teamwork, building relations with teammates, but most important learn lifelong skills on and off the field.

Soon we plan to enhance William “Bill” Blair Jr. Park to better serve even more youth and families in the community. Our plans are to add batting and pitching areas, improved baseball diamonds, parking, restrooms and an area for vendors for future events at Bill Blair Park. By enhancing the park’s amenities, we would potentially help to fund events and bring needed revenue to the community.

Join us at the 9th Annual Bill Blair Day, this Saturday October

22, 2022, from 12-6pm. Also please sign up your youth 4-14 years of age for the Little League Legends Baseball program for the 2022-2023 season. This event, you won’t want to miss!
