The Amazing Kreskin makes 2017 predictions By David Mullen With a new year upon us that includes a change in administration in the White House, worldwide political discourse and unsettling threats from other countries, what can we expect in the coming years? Ask mentalist and prognosticator The Amazing Kreskin. He is not too shy to tell you what he is thinking. Born George Joseph Kresge in Montclair, N.J. 81 years ago, The Amazing Kreskin (now his legally changed name) has been
appearing on television and other media outlets since the 1970s. He has been on NBC’s “The Tonight Show” 61 times. He has made more than 1,000 university appearances in North America. He has been credited with correctly forecasting the last four presidential elections, including 2016. But he is a pundit, not a psychic. “We have gone through, I think, one of the best sideshow election campaigns since Barnum & Bailey Circus,” Kreskin said. “It started crazy in that I have never revealed to my audience

who I thought would win. I sealed it.” NBC, during an appearance on the Jimmy Fallon show in 2015, locked
up Kreskin’s prediction of a Donald Trump presidency only to open up the envelope the day after election night. “I really don’t want to get into it [presidential prognostication],” Kreskin said. “But there are pictures of me with Trump on the Internet. I have been in his home, doing private parties, what have you.” He has also performed for former president Bill Clinton. Although Kreskin is highly sought after by national and international news sources for his point-of-view

Family reunited in senior living community By Lauren Witt Seven years ago, then 71-year-old Kenneth Henneberger and his younger sister, 69-year-old Kay Crawford, decided that the timing was right for them to talk with their mother Kathleen about moving into a senior living community, as she had experienced several falls. Based on the recommendation of Kenneth and Kay’s younger sister, Elaine, and the hospital from which Kathleen was discharged, they chose Presbyterian Village North (PVN) in Dallas to provide the care she needed. Kathleen moved into assisted living in Joyce Hall at that time. Little did both Kenneth and Kay know that they would be making a similar decision for themselves in 2016. Kay and her husband Noble, along with Kenneth and his wife Sally, decided to sell their homes and move to PVN also.

Two adult children and their spouses recently moved into Presbyterian Village North, where their 91-year-old mother has been living for the past seven years. Based on what they had learned about PVN as a result of visiting Kathleen, all agreed that PVN was the
place to be, and it would include the bonus of being able to live closer to Kathleen and spend more quality time with
her. They all felt that it was time to forgo home ownership

Mull It Over
Can the Cowboys stay in state? By David Mullen As I revisit my preseason National Football League predictions for 2016 chronicled in this column, I must say that I did pretty well despite a topsy-turvy season. In the American Football Conference, I picked the Kansas City Chiefs and the Pittsburgh Steelers to secure the top spots along with division winners Houston Texans and New England Patriots. Not bad, as those were the four teams that ultimately won their divisions. Just substitute New England for Pittsburgh in the seeding and it was a clean sweep. I picked the wildcards as the Oakland Raiders (correct!) and the Cincinnati Bengals (incorrect!). The Bengals continue to meow and not roar, and this season the Miami Dolphins snuck into the final wild card spot by a (wet) nose. And I also correctly predicted that the Denver Broncos — defending Super Bowl champions — would not make the playoffs. They didn’t. In the National Football Conference, my selections were not as stellar. I picked the division winners to be the Green Bay Packers and Seattle Seahawks (correct!), the New York Giants (secured a wild card spot) and the Carolina Panthers (shut out of the playoffs after going 15-1 last season), with the wild cards teams being the Minnesota Vikings and Arizona Cardinals, neither of which made the playoffs. In looking back, it seems like I left off one team that rose to prominence in 2016. The Dallas Cowboys. Count me among those that didn’t believe the Cowboys had a shot at the playoffs when Tony Romo went down in the third preseason game. But Dak Prescott showed the poise of a veteran leader, despite the fact that rookie quarterbacks rarely, if ever, have success in the NFL. Rookie running back Ezekiel Elliott is probably the NFL’s MVP this season and is a “must-watch” player every time he gets his hands on the football. Their superior play means that the road to Super Bowl LI in Houston must go through Arlington. They have not only earned a bye week, but time off to rest up. In the final game of the season, Romo teased fans by putting together a well-executed scoring drive that served notice that he is ready if needed. Season-long backup quarterback Mark Sanchez proved that he cannot play in this league.

It will not be easy for the Cowboys. The Detroit Lions, who have not won a championship game since 1957, must go to Seattle and face the Seahawks that have won their last nine playoff games at home. With Matthew Stafford battling a bad middle finger on his throwing hand, the Lions have been hampered on offense. I’ll take Seattle. The Giants have been the Cowboys only nemesis this season, but they must go into ice cold Green Bay to play the red hot Packers. New York has a couple of things going for them. They have a strong defense and quarterback Eli Manning has never lost a playoff game at Lambeau Field. But I picked the Packers in the beginning of the year and will stick with them for one more week. Oakland had a great year at 12-4, and then had a terrible break — literally — when MVP candidate quarterback Derek Carr went down to a broken leg. But they still have six other Pro Bowlers, and should have enough to beat the Houston Texans. And the Dolphins will be no match for the Steelers in Pittsburgh. So that sets up a Seattle at the upstart Atlanta Falcons on Saturday, Jan. 14 and the Packers coming to Jerry World on Sunday, Jan. 15. Oakland will go to New England for a rematch of the “Tuck Rule” game on Saturday night, Jan. 15 and Pittsburgh will visit Kansas City on Sunday, Jan. 15. The NFL is not giving whatever team that goes to New England any favors: the game starts at 8:15 p.m. EST. We will again assess the matchups when the future playoff games are set. But give it to the Cowboys. They did their job, played beyond many of our expectations and can enjoy home cooking for the month of January.

MOVIE TRAILER
Scorsese goes to epic proportions in ‘Silence’ By Chic DiCiccio When producers hand over $50 million bucks to fund an epic story about Catholicism and the mystery of faith set in 1637 Japan, it’s safe to say that filmmaker swings a pretty mean stick. When that filmmaker is Martin Scorsese and the movie is something he’s been working on for nearly 25 years, it goes without saying that interests will be piqued. “Silence” is a deeply thought provoking and beautifully shot journey (albeit a two hour and 41 minute one) about one’s faith and how far a person would go to stand up for it. It’s also a historical drama that brutally details religious persecution and the double edged sword that it wields. Even though “Silence” is set in the 1630s, the opening shot displays something that still occurs in certain places on Earth to this day: beheadings over “outlawed” religious beliefs. In this case, the Japanese Tokugawa regime is hunting down Japanese Christians and forcing them to denounce their faith or face torture and/or death. A Portuguese Jesuit priest, Father Cristavao Ferreira (Liam Neeson, pictured above), relays the details of this horrific movement via
KRESKIN cont'd from page 1 on politics, it is not his favorite subject. “I have nothing against politicians,” Kreskin said. “I just wish most of them would have been on the Titanic. But that is another story.” Kreskin feels people are becoming bored with politics and wants the U.S. to adopt a shortened campaign season like Canada and England, but predicts it will never happen and paraphrased Harry Truman’s Vice President Alben Barkley. “The thing that is wrong with the U.S. electoral scenario is that the day after a candidate is elected to office, they start working on their next campaign,” Kreskin said. “Do I think we will have a shortening [of the campaign season]? I say absolutely, positively ‘No!’ Not because of politics, but because of the extraordinarily lengthy election, the networks and the media have found out how much money they can make running with the campaign.” He feels that the length of the campaign coupled with the Internet has caused politicians and the media to dig up personal indiscretions of their opponents. “You can find more science fiction on the Internet than in the New York Public Library,” Kreskin quipped. “Other than that, things are good.” Kreskin covers a gambit of topics. He believes that we are in a war that no
living person will see the end of, even though he is not a doomsayer. “We are in a World War, it is just the nature of the war is different. When I was a little boy, we didn’t have satellite attacks here like we can expect now. Communication is so powerful you only need a few people to create mayhem. And if you study history — and no one studies history — the longest wars in history are religious wars. You are fighting power and ideology and that takes a lot longer to overcome. But we will survive.” He thinks that the movie industry is in crisis because of a lack of skilled writers and so many writers jumping to television. “I don’t think it will be this year,” Kreskin said, “but in a couple of years, we could see the return of double features.” He feels that many movies today are just too long, filled with special effects and violence at the expense of a quality plot line. Throughout the past six decades, Kreskin has had 20 books published, a television series and his own board game. And he doesn’t intend on slowing down. He figures he logged in 364 appearances around the world as late as 2015. “I am not a workaholic,” Kreskin said. “Rumors are that I was born in the 1880s. It’s not true! I just have a passion for my work.” And at 81 years old, The Amazing Kreskin will continue to tell his side of the story and how the story will turn out.

knock about “Silence,” it’s the decision by Scorsese to cast non-Portuguese actors in the main roles. Even critics of Mel Gibson’s “The Passion of The Christ” cannot deny that the use of Aramaic, Latin and Hebrew added to the realism of the film and the lack of that here tends to take you out of the movie at times. This is not due to a lack of effort from Andrew Garfield and Adam Driver. Driver is extremely underused and seems to be the only actor interested in speaking in English with a Portuguese-tinged accent. He disappears from the film and, if there is a lull, it’s until he reappears. Andrew Garfield uses a Latin accent, only meriting slight distraction, but his commitment to such a brutal, physical role is commendable. His spiritual conflict is written all over his dirt-stained
face, but there is sometimes too much melodrama and Garfield is guilty of “overacting.” It’s a fine performance that sometimes goes a bit too over the top. As with every Scorsese film, “Silence” is masterfully shot and edited. The Taiwan locale is both gorgeous and punishing with its tempestuous climate. There is rarely any music and, other than a few shots, Scorsese avoids any of his patented camera moves. “Silence” doesn’t preach or tell you how to feel. It brings up one of mankind’s most unanswerable questions: How can a God that proclaims to love us so allow His followers to face such brutality? This movie doesn’t pretend to know the answer to that question and forces everyone, regardless of their faith or lack thereof, to think about humanity’s true purpose.
Tenor Michael Fabiano to hold exclusive recital By Suzanne Calvin The Robert E. and Jean Ann Titus Art Song Recital Series will feature the magnetic tenor Michael Fabiano in an exclusive recital produced by The Dallas Opera. The performance will take place on Sunday, Jan. 22 at 2 p.m. in Dallas City Performance Hall (a 749-seat venue located at 2520 Flora Street — across the street from the Winspear Opera House — in the Arts District, Dallas, 75201). Additional support for the 2017 recital is provided by Rebecca and Michael Baker. Tickets are now on sale for $15 and $25 and may be purchased at dallasopera.org or by contacting The Dallas Opera Ticket/ Patron Services office at 214-443-1000. “Michael Fabiano is one of the most captivating tenors of our day and we are proud to bring this stellar performer to North Texas,” Dallas Opera’s Keith Cerny, the Kern Wildenthal general director and CEO, said. “The Titus family recognizes the importance of presenting uniquely talented singers to our community to enrich our artistic experiences. We are so grateful for their generous support of these important recitals, which offer an intimate setting to appreciate these tremendous talents. This is the fourth in
the series, which has included tenor Ian Bostridge in 2014, Matthew Polenzani in 2015, and legendary mezzo-soprano Frederica von Stade last January,” Cerny added. Fabiano is considered one of the greatest tenors in the world today. He recently made his critically acclaimed debut at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden where The Sunday Times, U.K. described that he held audiences “spellbound.” He is the first singer ever to be awarded the prestigious Beverly Sills Artist Award and the Richard Tucker Award in the same year, 2014. A member of the Metropolitan Opera Guild Artists’ Council, Fabiano has graced many of the world’s most important stages and venues, and performed in many of the leading opera houses. He has recorded extensively, despite his demanding stage schedule, and his role debuts are becoming legendary. Fabiano “is increasingly one of the great operatic tenors of our day, diving into both familiar and off-beat repertoire and delivering it with fluency and ringing power. In the absence of an opera house stage, sets or costumes, Fabiano simply conjured up a world of theatrical intensity and let it fly,”

letters to Fathers Sebastiao Rodrigues (Andrew Garfield) and Francisco Garrpe (Adam Driver). Ferreira’s missionary work has been halted and, now, rumors have spread back to Portugal regarding his potential apostasy. Since Rodrigues and Garrpe were schooled by Ferreira, they refuse to believe he would denounce his faith and ask to travel to Japan in an effort to learn the truth. They are guided there by Kichijiro (Yosuke Kubozuka), himself an exiled Japanese Christian and Scorsese’s very own version of Judas. Once arriving in Japan, Rodrigues and Garrpe are hidden in a small village of practicing Christians. Eventually, they are forced to split up, leave the village, and a lost, alone Rodrigues is inevitably captured by an inquisitor, Inoue (Issei Ogata). The violence and torture that consumes a portion of “Silence” isn’t necessarily graphic, but it is unsettling. Scorsese and his cinematographer Rodrigo Prieto don’t shirk away from it, but they don’t revel in it. As with those ordering the torture, they and screenwriter Jay Cocks are more interested in the psychological anguish that comes along with it more than the physical pain. If there is something to

Kenneth and Kay are the oldest of six siblings. “It is absolutely wonderful to all live on the same campus,” Kay said. “We don’t have to drive when we want to visit each other, just a quick walk and we are at each other’s door or at the health care services building where our mother resides. “There’s plenty to do here as well since the activity calendar is so full. We have what feels like endless options for what we could potentially do with our day. We’ll take a look when the calendar comes out and pick activities we would like to do by ourselves or as a family. “Mother stays busy as well. When we pick her up for special events or just drop by to visit, she is never sitting in her room. She is either in the dining room socializing or in a class participating in various activities. It’s heartwarming to see she is thriving despite some previous setbacks in her health. Just the

other day we picked her up and took her to a social hour with a pianist, as we knew she’d enjoy the live classical entertainment.” Since initially moving into Joyce Hall, Kathleen has moved into health care services, where she receives more one-on-one care. The Hennebergers moved into their brand new independent living residence on the fourth floor of Martins Landing in late September, and the Crawfords moved into their brand new independent living residence on the first floor of Martins Landing in the middle of October. Sally and Elaine started planning a family event right away. In October, Kathleen turned 91 years old, so a birthday party was scheduled in an event space at PVN where all available family members gathered and enjoyed a surprise birthday party. Twenty different family members including her children, grandchildren, greatgrandchildren and cousins came to celebrate her special day. “It was so easy. All we

had to do was book a large lounge in Martins Landing and coordinate with health care services team to have her come over for the party,” Sally said. “We all have peace of mind knowing she is safe here with us, and that if anything were to happen we have immediate access to medical staff and resources. Now we understand why Kathleen has enjoyed living here for seven years. It is a wonderful community, very peaceful and full of amiable residents and team members who are welcoming.” Both the Hennebergers and the Crawfords agree that life has been simpler and happier since moving to PVN and being reunited on one campus. They share memories, experiences, visits from each other’s families, meals and more. “It is a true joy seeing families come together to live on our campus knowing that ample quality time and new memories are made possible through Presbyterian Village North’s efforts,” Ron Kelly, executive director of Presbyterian Village North, said.
Your Stars this Week by Stella Wilder
The coming week will see many new doors opened and numerous individuals marching forward to claim what is theirs, each making a choice that can reap rewards for some time to come. However, with each door that opens, another will close. This means that even as one takes advantage of a new opportunity, he or she must also bid farewell to something that is no longer viable or productive. It could be a job, a hobby, a home, a relationship — it could be anything, in fact, from the sublime to the ridiculous! It is essential that all be ready for this kind of transition, as shifting from the old and outdated to the shiny and new offers unmatched potential to those who choose to bid farewell to the past in favor of the future. Many decisions may, indirectly at least, involve the prospect of travel. Even a simple decision to pursue a new job or explore a new relationship may well offer the chance to pack up and head off to new horizons — in some cases, this is where the excitement really lies. Soon, even the most peripatetic may be putting down roots in a new place. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) Reach out to a friend early in the week, and the two of you may enjoy many new adventures in the days that follow. (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) – You may be tempted to make changes in and around the home, but try not to dedicate
the whole week to such matters. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) Tracking another's progress doesn't mean that you will make any of your own. You must focus more on the task at hand! (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) – A loved one will come to you with a puzzle early in the week. You may have to set a few things aside if you want to help in the most effective way possible. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) You and a friend have been making some big plans, and you may finally be able to set them in motion — slowly at first. (March 6-March 20) – You'll want to dedicate a good portion of your week to a project you've been putting off for too long. You are prepared and well equipped. ARIES (March 21-April 4) You're tempted to go it alone, but a little voice inside your head tells you to reach out to a friend. You won't regret it. (April 5-April 19) – You may have to reveal a little more about yourself than you had planned, but the payoff should be considerable in the end. TAURUS (April 20-May 5) You're after something that may not be available just yet, but it's good to go through the motions — at least for now. (May 6-May 20) – Someone will send you a
message that has you charting a different course later in the week. Is this something with a future? GEMINI (May 21-June 6) Someone close to you may balk at your suggestions, and you had better find out why. There's something going on you need to know about. (June 7-June 20) – You may be getting information from so many sources that you don't know whom to listen to, but an ally will make him- or herself known very soon. CANCER (June 21-July 7) Send out feelers early in the week, and you should get precisely what you want later on. Give things time to develop, and don't be in a hurry. (July 8-July 22) – You're in need of a little assistance of a kind that doesn't come along every day. Be ready to move as soon as it becomes available. LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) You may not have to spend much time examining a problem to know how to solve it, but the actual solving may take longer than expected. (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) – Any way you look at it, the situation you find yourself in is both good and bad, but you can certainly accentuate the good! VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) You'll be able to bring a special

TENOR cont'd from page 6 according to Joshua Kosman of the San Francisco Chronicle regarding a recent concert. “I’ve raved before about Michael Fabiano,” wrote critic Anne Midgette of The Washington Post earlier this month, “but I don’t know that I’ve ever heard him sing with the clarity and power he brought to the role of Jean (John the Baptist) on Sunday, his sound heroic and translucent, with no evident strain, culminating in a show-stopping performance of his aria.” The Titus Recital will include works by composers Franz Liszt, Henri Duparc, Giacomo Puccini and Amy Beach, and is a wonderful opportunity to experience this acclaimed 32-year-old star up close. “We are thrilled with the caliber of artists that the opera has brought to Dallas for this concert series.

Restaurant review
Little Greek Restaurant satisfies cravings By Sara Newberry There’s a phrase that one of my favorite fashion bloggers uses when an outfit is not necessarily offensive, but doesn’t break any new ground: she describes the look as “aggressively fine.” That’s the phrase that kept coming to mind during my visits to Little Greek Restaurant in Preston Hollow. The fast-casual chain has locations in five states: Florida, Arkansas, Kentucky, Georgia and, of course, Texas. Branches in Carrollton and Richardson preceded the Preston Hollow one. The menu features classic Greek favorites like souvlaki, gyros and spanakopita. Lesser known options like mousaka and pastitsio are also available. Spanakopita, or Greek spinach pie, is tasty, if a little bland. I wanted more feta and crisper phyllo, but it was generally okay. I did not like the hummus I tried: I prefer mine to be creamier, with more lemon and garlic in it. Falafel, however, was crunchy on the outside and moist and herbacious on the inside. I also really enjoyed the lamb souvlaki. The lamb was tender and perfectly cooked, with some charred bits from the grill. Gyro meat has more

Lamb Souvlaki at Little Greek Restaurant. flavor than those I’ve tried elsewhere. Gyro meat can be a little questionable at times — it can seem more like “meat” than actual meat — but this one seemed less “manufactured” than others I’ve tried. Mousaka was another menu option that can be best described as “fine.” It was slightly underseasoned, but was tasty enough. I’ll stick to the grilled options from now on. Most entrées are sided with Greek salad, which here is topped with a scoop of potato salad (apparently, it’s a Florida thing). The potato salad was my favorite part of the salad. The ingredients were fresh and crisp, but the
vinaigrette was too sweet for my taste. (The sweetness varied, though, ranging from cloying to subtle, from visit to visit.) Little Greek Restaurant is an ideal option if you’re craving Greek food, but don’t have time for a sit-down meal at a restaurant like Ziziki’s or Kostas Cafe. The food isn’t going to set the world on fire, but it’s all good enough to satisfy a craving. Little Greek Restaurant 9665 N. Central Expy.
