Second City makes light of election drivel By Shari Goldstein Stern So it’s Nov. 9. The intriguing presidential election is over. A decision of universal, mass proportion was made yesterday and reported in the wee hours of the morning. The winner is either the first woman president, or the first layman, with no experience in political office. Regardless of which camp you support, the results will be a victory for some and shocking to the rest. In town to parody the often-comical, always surprising recent campaign events will be The Second City (SC) presenting “Unelectable You,” billed as a “Completely Unbiased Political Revue” for one night only Tuesday, Nov.

Barack Obama as he empties his desk for the new guy or gal’s hairspray or lipstick. Co-sponsored by Slate Magazine and directed by Matt Hovde, the show promises to spotlight the scandals, political news and “electable” candidates, who have entertained while delivering a series of colorful debates, in a style befitting the comedy troupe. The two-hour show satirizes the election process, as so many voters would like to do, and with a captive audience. SC presents a combination of sketches, improvisational performance (improv), music and multi-media that feature both candidates,

If you’ve seen a lot of theater in Dallas, there’s a good chance you’ve seen Julie Johnson on stage. The award-winning, spirited redhead has been a standout in everything she’s performed locally, from Fraulein Schneider in the Dallas Theater Center’s 2011 production of “Cabaret” to Theatre Three’s “Dirty Blonde,” in which she played Mae West. She wowed audiences as the Godmother in “The Plexiglass Slipper” at Lyric Stage, where she starred in “Hello Dolly,” as well. Local credits also include a concert version of “Sweeney Todd” at the Morton Meyerson Symphony Center. Now, there’s a “little show” starring Johnson that’s been making its way across the country to Dallas, “A Closer Walk With Patsy Cline.” The musical will be presented by the Plaza Theatre and Mark Bell, at the Plaza Theatre in Garland Nov. 11 - 20. The show follows Cline’s life and career from her hometown in Winchester, Va. to the Grand Ole Opry, Las Vegas and
Carnegie Hall. The star dominated country, blues, pop and gospel charts all at once during the 1950s and early 1960s, making her the epitome of a “crossover” artist. “Closer” showcases her memorable, sometimes mainstream songs like “Walkin’ After Midnight,” “Sweet Dreams,” “I Fall to Pieces,” “Crazy,” “She’s Got You,” “Seven Lonely Days” and “A Closer Walk with Thee.” Johnson is a country western music (C&W) fan, along with being a lifetime admirer of Cline. Her interest in the singer started early. “I had Photo by Bill McQuillen heard her on the radio as a kid, but Dallas actress Julie Johnson stars as Patsy Cline became really aware of her from the for two weekends in November. scenes in [the feature films] ‘Coal Miners Daughter’ and then ‘Sweet Dreams,’” she said. theater.

nce upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore — While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. “Tis some visitor,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber door — Only this, and nothing more.” Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December, And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor.
Eagerly I wished the morrow — vainly I had sought to borrow From my books surcease of sorrow — sorrow for the lost Lenore — For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels named Lenore — Nameless here for evermore. And the silken sad uncertain rustling of each purple curtain Thrilled me — filled me with fantastic terrors never felt before; So that now, to still the beating of my heart, I stood repeating `’Tis some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door – Some late visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door; This it is, and nothing more.”
Presently my soul grew stronger; hesitating then no longer, ”Sir,” said I, “or Madam, truly your forgiveness I implore; But the fact is I was napping, and so gently you came rapping, And so faintly you came tapping, tapping at my chamber door, That I scarce was sure I heard you” — here I opened wide the door — Darkness there and nothing more. Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing, Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before; But the silence was unbroken, and the darkness gave no token, And the only word there spoken was the whispered word, “Lenore!” This I whispered, and an echo murmured back the word, “Lenore!” Merely this and nothing more.
Back into the chamber turning, all my soul within me burning, Soon again I heard a tapping somewhat louder than before. ”Surely,” said I, “surely that is something at my window lattice; Let me see then, what thereat is, and this mystery explore — Let my heart be still a moment and this mystery explore; — ’Tis the wind and nothing more!” Open here I flung the shutter, when, with many a flirt and flutter, In there stepped a stately raven of the saintly days of yore. Not the least obeisance made he; not a minute stopped or stayed he; But, with mien of lord or lady, perched above my chamber

Letter from the Editor
To catch a thief By Nancy Black OK. I probably shouldn’t have done it. But I did! I caught a burglar the other night outside my back door. Nancy Black He was walking down the long, narrow pathway toward the front of our complex. I knew he didn’t live in our building so I said to him, “Who the [bad word] are you? “Who the [bad word] are you?!” he shouted back. “I live here!” I screamed at him. “I do, too,” he said as he tried to walk past me. “No you don’t!” I said as I grabbed him by his backpack. I guess my fierce
As condensed by the author in 1867 for his public readings. Presented here in seven weekly installments with original illustrations by John Leech. I have endeavoured in this Ghostly little book, to raise the Ghost of an Idea, which shall not put my readers out of humour with themselves, with each other, with the season, or with me. May it haunt their houses pleasantly, and no one wish to lay it. Their faithful Friend and Servant, C. D. December, 1843. STAVE ONE. MARLEY’S GHOST MARLEY was dead, to begin with. There is no doubt whatever about that. The register of his burial was signed by the clergyman, the clerk, the undertaker, and the chief mourner. Scrooge signed it. And Scrooge's name was good upon 'Change for anything he chose to put his hand to. Old Marley was as dead as a door-nail. Scrooge knew he was dead? Of course he did. How could it be otherwise? Scrooge and he were partners for I don't know how many years. Scrooge was his sole executor, his sole administrator, his sole assign, his sole residuary legatee, his sole friend, his sole mourner. Scrooge never painted out old Marley's name,
motherly instincts kicked in because there I was, all 120 pounds of me, screaming at the top of my lungs while holding on to this total stranger. I’m screaming, I’m holding on to him and I’m calling 911 all at the same time. The guy finally broke free from my grasp and pushed past me toward the street. The police arrived within minutes. The officers got his description and searched the area but the bad guy was nowhere to be found. They did suggest that the next time I see someone suspicious I should not take matters into my own hands. I should go back inside, lock the door and then call 911. I will, indeed, heed that advice in the future. however. There it yet stood, years afterwards, above the warehouse door, – Scrooge and Marley. The firm was known as Scrooge and Marley. Sometimes people new to the business called Scrooge Scrooge, and sometimes Marley. He answered to both names. It was all the same to him. Oh! But he was a tight-fisted hand at the grindstone, was Scrooge! a squeezing, wrenching grasping, scraping, clutching, covetous old sinner! External heat and cold had little influence on him. No warmth could warm, no cold could chill him. No wind that blew was bitterer than he, no falling snow was more intent upon its purpose, no pelting rain less open to entreaty. Foul weather didn't know where to have him. The heaviest rain and snow and hail and sleet could boast of the advantage over him in only one respect — they often "came down" handsomely, and Scrooge never did. Nobody ever stopped him in the street to say, with gladsome looks, "My dear Scrooge, how are you? When will you come to see me?" No beggars implored him to bestow a trifle, no children asked him what it was o'clock, no man or woman ever once in all his life inquired the way to such and such a place, of Scrooge. Even the blindmen's dogs appeared to know him; and when they saw him coming on, would tug their owners into doorways and up courts; and then would wag their tails as though they said, "No eye at all is better than an evil eye, dark master!" But what did Scrooge care! It was the very thing he liked. To edge his way along the crowded paths of life, warning all human sympathy to keep its distance, was what the knowing ones call "nuts" to Scrooge. Once upon a time of all the good days in the year, upon a Christmas eve old Scrooge sat busy in his counting-house. It was cold, bleak biting, foggy weather; and the city clocks had only just gone three, but it was quite dark already. The door of Scrooge's counting-house was open, that he might keep his eye upon his clerk, who, in a dismal little cell beyond, a sort of tank, was copying letters. Scrooge had a very small fire, but the clerk's fire was so very much smaller that it looked like one coal. But he couldn't replenish it, for Scrooge kept the coal-box in his own room; and so surely as the clerk came in with the shovel the master predicted that it would be necessary for them to part. Where-

fore the clerk put on his white comforter, and tried to warm himself at the candle; in which effort, not being a man of a strong imagination, he failed. "A merry Christmas, uncle! May God save you!" cried a cheerful voice. It was the voice of Scrooge's nephew, who came upon him so quickly that this was the first intimation Scrooge had of his approach. "Bah!" said Scrooge; "humbug!" "Christmas a humbug, uncle! You don't mean that, I am sure?" "I do. Out upon merry Christmas! What's Christmas time to you but a time for paying bills without money; a time for finding yourself a year older, and not an hour richer; a time for balancing your books and having every item in 'em through a round dozen of months presented dead against you? If I had my will, every idiot who goes about with 'Merry Christmas' on his lips should be boiled with his own pudding, and buried with a stake of holly through his heart. He should!" "Uncle!" "Nephew, keep Christmas in your own way, and let me keep it in mine." "Keep it! But you don't keep it." "Let me leave it alone, then. Much good may it do you! Much good it has ever done you!" "There are many things from which I might have derived good, by which I have not profited, I dare say, Christmas among the rest. But I am sure I have always thought of Christmas time, when it has come round — apart from the veneration due to its sacred origin, if anything belonging to it call be apart from that, — as a good time; a kind, forgiving, charitable, pleasant time; the

Mull It Over
Outlook bleak for Mavericks By David Mullen The 2016-17 National Basketball Association season begins this week and runs through June when a champion is finally crowned. For the Dallas Mavericks and their fans, this season will seem like an eternity as the team enters with little talent, little team chemistry and very little chance of advancing to the playoffs. Even a .500 regular season in the Western Conference seems like the type of long shot that Dirk Nowitzki used to make with regularity. Despite another revamped line-up, the Mavericks still must depend upon the 38-year-old Nowitzki for scoring. Big man Andrew Bogut is more of a defensive player and injury prone, and free agent acquisition Harrison Barnes is $94 million richer despite averaging 10 points per game in his career. Coach Rick Carlisle can be a miracle worker, and will try to get the most out of a backcourt featuring Deron Williams and Wesley Matthews. Justin Anderson will provide a spark off of the bench and at his age is a star in waiting. In general, there is just not much to get excited about with the Dallas squad this year, unless one is a fan that likes solid competition. That is one thing that the Mavericks will have plenty of this season. The Golden State Warriors come off of a record 73-win regular season, signed superstar Kevin Durant and still might not be the best team in the conference. They are smaller than last year and must make sure that there are enough shots to go around for Durant, reigning MVP Steph Curry and shooting guard Klay Thompson. San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich enters his 21st year with a team packed with stars. Kawhi Leonard and Lamarcus Aldridge make a powerful front court. Leonard will be a league MVP very soon. And together, the two of them make guard Tony Parker look younger. The Portland Trailblazers surprised some teams last year, but now teams know what to expect. Guards Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum come to play every night. Not like the Los Angeles Clippers, which is a team loaded with talent in Chris Paul, Blake Griffin and DeAndre “The Missed Free Throw Highlight Reel” Jordan, but lacking in heart. As long as the Oklahoma City Thunder

Pressure will be on Dirk Nowitzki's scoring ability this season. has Russell Westbrook and the Houston Rockets have James Harden, they will continue to give the Mavericks fits. Add an improved Utah Jazz team and a healthy Memphis Grizzlies team, and it just seems improbable that the Mavericks can compete for a playoff spot this year. But remember, two games over .500 got them in last year. In the Eastern Conference, it is about the “haves,” the “wannabes” and the “havenots.” Of course, LeBron “King” James reigns supreme over the basketball world and there is little reason to think that his Cleveland Cavaliers won’t be dominant this season. They are already improved over a championship season with a healthy Kyrie Irving. The Toronto Raptors showed great potential in winning 56 games last season, but then Demar Derozan had a poor playoff run. He and Kyle Lowry still make for an intriguing backcourt. The youthful Detroit Pistons and defensive-minded Boston Celtics seem to be on the way up, but can anyone compete with Cleveland? I don’t think so. Teams like the New York Knicks, Philadelphia 76ers and Brooklyn Nets will continue their futility. In the end, James and the Cavaliers will face the Spurs in the NBA Finals, with James becoming the toast of the town for one more year. As for the Mavericks and their loyal group of fans that shell out thousands of dollars a year on tickets, it will be a season to sit back, watch and wait.

The Point at C. C. Young – C. C. Young, a premier, non-profit senior living community in Dallas, will host an outdoor movie night and chili dinner featuring “On The Town,” a 1949 musical about three sailors looking for fun and romance. RSVPs required. 5 p.m.
Carol cont'd from page 2 to open their shut-up hearts freely, and to think of people below them as if they really were fellow-travellers to the grave, and not another race of creatures bound on other journeys. And therefore, uncle, though it has never put a scrap of gold or silver in my pocket, I believe that it has done me good, and will do me good; and I say, God bless it!" The clerk in the tank involuntarily applauded. "Let me hear another sound from you," said Scrooge, "and you'll keep your Christmas by losing your situation! You're quite a powerful speaker, sir," he added, turning to his nephew. "I wonder why you don't go into Parliament." "Don't be angry, uncle. Come! Dine with us to-morrow." Scrooge said that he would see him — yes, indeed he did. He went the whole length of the expression, and said that he
would see him in that extremity first. "But why?" cried Scrooge's nephew. "Why?" "Why did you get married?" "Because I fell in love." "Because you fell in love!" growled Scrooge, as if that were the only one thing in the world more ridiculous than a merry Christmas. "Good afternoon!" "Nay, uncle, but you never came to see me before that happened. Why give it as a reason for no coming now?" "Good afternoon." "I want nothing from you; I ask nothing of you; why cannot we be friends?" "Good afternoon." "I am sorry, with all my heart, to find you so resolute. We have never had any quarrel, to which I have been a party. But I have made the trial in homage to Christmas, and I'll keep my Christmas humor to the last. So a Merry Christmas, uncle!" "Good afternoon!" "And a Happy New Year!"
"Good afternoon!" His nephew left the room without an angry word, notwithstanding. The clerk, in letting Scrooge's nephew out, had let two other people in. They were portly gentlemen, pleasant to behold, and now stood, with their hats off, in Scrooge's office. They had books and papers in their hands, and bowed to him. "Scrooge and Marley's, I believe," said one of the gentlemen, referring to his list. "Have I the pleasure of addressing Mr.
Scrooge, or Mr. Marley?" "Mr. Marley has been dead these seven years. He died seven years ago, this very night." "At this festive season of the year, Mr. Scrooge," said the gentleman, taking up a pen, "it is more than usually desirable that we should make some slight provision for the poor and destitute, who suffer greatly at the present time. Many thousands are in want of common necessaries; hundreds of thousands are in want of common comforts, air." "Are there no prisons?" "Plenty of prisons. But under the impression that they scarcely furnish Christian cheer of mind or body to the unoffending multitude, a few of us are endeavoring to raise a fund to buy the poor some meat and drink, and means of warmth. We choose this time, because it is a time, of all others, when Want is keenly felt, and Abundance rejoices. What shall I put you down for?"
"Nothing!" "You wish to be anonymous?" "I wish to be left alone. Since you ask me what I wish, gentlemen, that is my answer. I don't make merry myself at Christmas, and I can't afford to make idle people merry. I help to support the prisons and the workhouses, — they cost enough, — and those who are badly off must go there." "Many can't go there; and many would rather die." "If they would rather die, they had better do it, and decrease the surplus population." At length the hour of shutting up the counting-house arrived. With an ill-will Scrooge, dismounting from his stool, tacitly admitted the fact to the expectant clerk in the Tank, who instantly snuffed his candle out, and put on his hat. "You'll want all day tomorrow, I suppose?" "If quite convenient, sir." "It is not convenient, and
it's not fair. If I was to stop half a crown for it, you'd think yourself mightily ill-used, I'll be bound?" "Yes, sir." "And yet you don't think me ill-used, when I pay a day's wages for no work." "It's only once a year, sir." "A poor excuse for picking a man's pocket every twentyfifth of December! But I suppose you must have the whole day. Be here all the earlier next morning." The clerk promised that he would; and Scrooge walked out with a growl. The office was closed in a twinkling, and the clerk, with the long ends of his white comforter dangling below his waist (for he boasted no great-coat), went down a slide, at the end of a lane of boys, twenty times, in honor of its being Christmas eve, and then ran home as hard as he could pelt, to play at blindman's-buff.

Raven cont'd from page 1 door — Perched upon a bust of Pallas just above my chamber door – Perched, and sat, and nothing more. Then the ebony bird beguiling my sad fancy into smiling, By the grave and stern decorum of the countenance it wore, ”Though thy crest be shorn and shaven, thou,” I said, “art sure no craven. Ghastly grim and ancient raven wandering from the nightly shore — Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night’s Plutonian shore!” Quoth the raven, “Nevermore.” Much I marvelled this ungainly fowl to hear discourse so plainly, Though its answer little meaning — little relevancy bore; For we cannot help agreeing that no living human being Ever yet was blessed with seeing bird above his chamber door — Bird or beast above the sculptured bust above his chamber door, With such name as ‘Nevermore.’ But the raven, sitting lonely on the placid bust, spoke only That one word, as if his soul in that one word he did outpour. Nothing further then he uttered — not a feather then he fluttered Till I scarcely more than muttered, “Other friends have flown before — On the morrow he will leave
me, as my hopes have flown before.” Then the bird said, “Nevermore.” Startled at the stillness broken by reply so aptly spoken, “Doubtless,” said I, “what it utters is its only stock and store, Caught from some unhappy master whom unmerciful Disaster Followed fast and followed faster till his songs one burden bore — Till the dirges of his hope that melancholy burden bore Of ‘Never-nevermore.’” But the raven still beguiling all my sad soul into smiling, Straight I wheeled a cushioned seat in front of bird and bust and door; Then, upon the velvet sinking, I betook myself to linking Fancy unto fancy, thinking what this ominous bird of yore — What this grim, ungainly, ghastly, gaunt, and ominous bird of yore Meant in croaking “Nevermore.”
Then, methought, the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer Swung by Seraphim whose footfalls tinkled on the tufted floor. “Wretch,” I cried, “thy God hath lent thee — by these angels he has sent thee Respite – respite and nepenthe from thy memories of Lenore! Quaff, oh quaff this kind nepenthe, and forget this lost Lenore!” Quoth the raven, “Nevermore.” “Prophet!” said I, “thing of evil! — prophet still, if bird or devil! — Whether tempter sent, or whether tempest tossed thee here ashore, Desolate yet all undaunted, on this desert land enchanted – On this home by horror haunted — tell me truly, I implore – Is there — is there balm in Gilead? — tell me — tell me, I implore!” Quoth the raven, “Nevermore.” “Prophet!” said I, “thing of evil! — prophet still, if bird or devil! By that Heaven that bends above us — by that
God we both adore — Tell this soul with sorrow laden if, within the distant Aidenn, It shall clasp a sainted maiden whom the angels name Lenore — Clasp a rare and radiant maiden, whom the angels name Lenore?” Quoth the raven, “Nevermore.” “Be that word our sign of parting, bird or fiend!’ I shrieked, upstarting “Get thee back into the tempest and the Night’s Plutonian shore! Leave no black plume as a token of that lie thy soul hath spoken! Leave my loneliness unbroken! — quit the bust above my door! Take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form from off my door!” Quoth the raven, “Nevermore.” And the raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door; And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon’s that is dreaming, And the lamp-light o’er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor Shall be lifted — nevermore!

Comedy cont'd from page 1 while showcasing the media circus. “We’re stuck with two of the least popular candidates in election history, and many people will be using this election not to vote for someone, but against,” SC representatives are saying. If you remember the Prime Time Players, SC can be loosely compared to their comedy team, when “Saturday Night Live” was funny. Names in comedy like Steve Carell and Stephen Colbert got their start with SC. What began as a cabaret theater in Chicago in 1959 grew to be far more than just that. SC has its own conservatory offering educational programs in the area of improv performance. Not only does the troupe entertain in regional theaters, colleges, performing arts centers and on tour, but operates a school of improvisation-based arts that enrolls more than 11,000 students a year. Alan Linic is a member of the cast who also teaches improv and writing. Serious coursework advances students through five levels. There’s homework and in-class performance with critique, and much more. Surprisingly, the “company” is a part of a company, in the business sense. The conservatory has a mission statement. It has a value statement

based on diversity and inclusion: “Fostering community with cultural sensitivity; Increasing access to our programs, scholarships and performances to underserved communities; Facilitating and engaging in dialogue across departments on empathy, equity, diversity and inclusion.” In other words, the Second City is far more than a comedy troupe. An estimated 400 employees work in SC’s brick and mortar in Chicago. It has a corporate arm that includes marketing, training, communications and other departments. The corporation has strict policies to filter out harassment, bigotry, racism and all intolerance from anyone, employees or audiences. At performances, anyone displaying those behaviors are removed from the theater. SC has an outreach program through which it serves universities, women’s shelters, gender studies classes, community organizations and groups and with improv and diversity programming. According to SC’s literature, “Classes include Master Diversity Workshops tailored for multicultural groups; Guest Artist Lectures with improv demo and performance; workshops that address gender, race and LGBTQ themes; and workshops for at-risk, alternative schools and underserved communities.” According to Linic, “Over the

years Second City has learned that we can write funnier, farther-reaching and more well-rounded work by including diverse voices of people with different backgrounds.” “Also, the cast and all employees make up an extremely collaborative environment. And when you surround yourself with other performers, you’re forced to grow. This is a team like I’ve never experienced,” Linic said. “In fact, one of the conservatories most popular programs is one in which a troupe goes into a corporate meeting and introduces humor as a tool to support communications, alleviate stress and encourage teamwork and collaboration. “Unelectable You” is almost entirely political satire and is focused on the current election. The writing is from both sides of the spectrum, and dares to examine, “This can’t be happening!” “A lot of people find the situation to be more scary than funny. They’re asking ‘what if?'” Finding humor is the best way to process the situation,” Linic said. “Unelectable You” will play at the Majestic Theater, 1925 Elm St., 75201 for one night only, Tuesday, Nov. 1 at 8 p.m. For information and ticket sales, go to http://bit.ly/2eARUuf.

Your Stars this Week The coming week will require many individuals to dig deep into their bags of tricks to come up with just the right thing to do under certain extraordinary circumstances that cannot be avoided. All will be using stores of energy heretofore overlooked, and many will have to employ a kind of inner resolve that is rarely tapped. Many realizations will be had, and many of these will have something to do with key relationships. Those who are already in love, for example, will find that the landscape is shifting and requires a new perspective. Those who are waiting for love to come calling may find that their heart's desire can soon be theirs, but only a change in behavior can make this so.

Metal can take the heat and keep ‘cool’ By Stephan Sardone
PAGE 9
ALONG THE GREEN trail
America’s palm oil crisis continues By Naima Montacer
stephan@sardoneconstruction.com This week, I’d like to talk about a versatile material that might be worth the investment: metal. Though this all-purpose commodity can be a bit pricey, it could be an appropriate leap, as it’s not only durable, easy to clean and functional, but it can take on just about any design taste. Throughout time, metal has gone from an accent material to the focal point of a home. You can place metal in just about any setting and mold it to fit the room’s needs. Not only can it stand alone, but it works well with other materials too, like different types of wood. It’s a great way to add depth, texture and uniqueness that will draw the eye. One of the most common ways people use metal in their homes is in the form of corrugated tin. This use can go one of two ways: tacky or tasteful. Try to minimize the use of this style in a way that makes a classy, edgy statement. For example, instead of covering an entire wall in corrugated tin, try using it as wainscoting in a powder room, under the bar, or maybe lining the base of a built-in buffet. This way, you’ve utilized the interesting material, keeping it delicate instead of going overboard. Metal can sharpen a kitchen’s look via backsplash, countertops, appliances and more. Options are endless for metal backsplashes, in particular. You can go for some stainless steel mosaics, steel matted tiles, maybe a blend of aluminum, glass and copper, or a galvanized metal backsplash made to look like zinc. These options look expensive and upscale. That last option can also be applied to countertops; galvanized metal as your kitchen counter surface creates a smooth, slick look while remaining durable and easy to wipe down. Not to mention, metal countertops are nonporous, heat-proof, with many patterns to choose from other than the plain monochromatic. Instead, choose a unique brush finish to give some dimension, and if you like the look of an integral sink (a sink that is almost seamlessly incorporated into the countertop), then a metal counter and sink would be a good way to go. Appliances are obviously a great way to incorporate “sleek and shiny” into your kitchen. Lately there’s been a trend of different colored metal appliances, such as charcoal or copper. It might be interesting to go with a stainless vent hood with brass details. The bathroom is another great place to go metal — not just for the hardware. Try some galvanized sheet metal for the shower walls, and if you want something more exciting, you might go with gray metallic fish scale tiles either in the shower or the sink area. If you’re not into fish scale tiles, consider something slightly different like a honeycomb design. That minimalist rule I mentioned earlier

Metal can enhance an interior design. goes out the window if you have an outdoor shower area. Really go for the effect with corrugated tin or another form of metal as the shower walls themselves. While we’re on the topic Stephan Sardone of outdoors, think about installing metal fencing with wooden posts. It’s modern, clean, private and withstands the elements. Let’s take it back inside and look up — at the ceiling. Metal ceiling tiles are in, because they add texture, no matter what style you go for, whether it’s contemporary or antique. With simpler, clean-cut tile designs, it’ll take you more modern, but if you lean toward vintage, you might consider more dramatic embellishments. For rustic, try it in coordination with wood panel walls or exposed beams. Don’t forget that just because it’s metal doesn’t mean it has to be silver; for example, if you have a white-themed living room, go for white metal or something lighter to accent. Metal ceiling tiles are highly durable and last a long time, as they do not crack or rot, nor do they absorb moisture, which allows them to be more resistant to mold. I highly recommend metal as a material for all rooms, sometimes used sparingly, other times covering an entire wall. It all comes down to taste and preference. In the end, it’ll save you money and time on repairs, effort on cleaning and add major style points and value to your home. Stephan Sardone is owner of Sardone Construction and has been helping people improve their life by remodeling their home around their life.
I’ve avoided giving the update on this issue for a while now, mainly because the news isn’t good. I’d love to give a positive update on an environmental issue that reaches our daily lives, but it’s just getting worse. The palm oil crisis rages on. As Halloween candy ingestion increases, our awareness of the palm oil crisis should grow as well. In case you have missed what palm oil is, palm oil is found in more than 50 percent of products in the grocery store including cookies, crackers, milk, lotions, soaps and yes, candy. The semi solid oil is ideal for a variety of commercial uses such as providing products their “chewy” texture, and due to moderate amount of linoleic acid and antioxidants, palm oil keeps products stable for longer periods. With more than 30 different common names for palm oil, it can be very difficult to identify which products contain the oil. The cheap filler, palm oil, has not always been in our products. In the last 30 years palm oil production has increased to today about a third of all vegetable oil used worldwide is derived from oil palm trees. Eightyfive percent of all palm oil produced is exported from Indonesia and Malaysia. Palm oil plantations are created by slash and burning tropical rainforests, which destroys wildlife habitat and releases large amounts of carbon into the atmosphere contributing to climate change. The destruction of tropical rainforests also reduces the amount of plants taking in carbon
dioxide, which their presence would offset climate change. Naima Montacer Habitat destruction in favor of palm oil plantations has led to vast declines in orangutans, tigers and other endangered species. OK, so what’s the update? Malaysia had a rough year with unconventional hot dry weather related to the El Niño phenomenon. Palm oil yield in Malaysia is estimated to decline by 5.3 percent for 2016. But, forecasts for 2017 are showing a 5.6 percent increase for 2017. Just last week palm oil future prices surged to the highest in more than two years. The palm oil business in Malaysia rages on. Now, companies are expanding to other parts of the world, such as Africa. Liberia has become a new target location for palm oil plantations. The Guardian recently published their investigation into the palm oil debate focusing on Golden Veroleum Liberia (GVL). GVL is a palm oil company emphasizing their work in Liberia as bringing jobs and increasing the economy through oil palm plantations. Just as the land was destroyed in Indonesia, the same is being done in Liberia, without the entire community’s consent. Poverty is a driving issue that allows companies to exploit third world land. Still writhing from a civil war, Liberia is falling victim to this exploitation. We need to support nonprofits and companies that boost
local economic communities through sustainable development and not land destruction. And where are with sustainable palm oil? The same, it’s not really sustainable. The Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) is the only recognized certification for sustainable palm oil but is run by many of the palm oil companies. The RSPO sustainable certification process doesn’t cover some of the most critical environmental issues around destroying forests and peatlands. We need an independent third party certification process to accurately assess sustainability and until that exists, don’t believe the sustainable palm oil hype. Let’s make some movement on combating the palm oil industry. Industries follow consumers and if you don’t buy palm oil, companies will begin to feel the economic decline. Use #PalmOilFree to identify products that don’t have palm oil in them and help spread the word on social media about what palm oil is, why it’s important and what you can do every day to make a difference. A strong community presence will give more power to politicians to create regulations on our U.S. consumer companies to reduce their palm oil use or push for real sustainable action. This will pass change back to palm oil companies around the world. Individually we can come together to make a positive impact on the palm oil crisis. Choose your Halloween candy wisely.

Finding fresh falafel in Deep Ellum By Sara Newberry
dotty.griffith@yahoo.com Queso is so bueno. Little Woodrow’s smooth and cheesy dip is the topping for the neighborhood sports bar’s signature “Mile Wide Nachos.” The recipe calls for a bottle of beer so save one for the queso. As the folks at Little Woodrow’s like to say, “It’s smooth enough to sooth the late night munchies, and has just enough kick to keep the evening going. “ Here’s the recipe, just in time for another fall football weekend. “Sparky’s” Queso a la Little Woodrow’s 1 (5-pound) block Velveeta processed cheese product 1 (16- ounce) bottle Shiner Bock Beer 1 (28- ounce) can Rotel Original Diced Tomatoes and Green Chilies (undrained) 1 or 2 fresh jalapeno peppers, seeded and sliced 3 to 5 serrano peppers, sliced Milk as needed for desired consistency

If cheese starts to scorch, Dotty Griffith lower heat. Stir in diced tomatoes and green chilies, mixing until smooth. Add sliced fresh peppers to taste. If thinner consistency is desired, add milk as needed. Stir and heat through. Serve warm as a dip for tortilla chips or as a topping for nachos.

The versatile actress has also appeared on episodes of the daytime television series, “As the World Turns.” Also to her credit is the first national tour of “Memphis.” She earned a Drama Desk nomination for the off-Broadway premiere of the musical, “Das Barbecü.” In 2003, Johnson made her Carnegie Hall debut singing with the New York Pops Orchestra under the direction of Skitch Henderson. At Fort Worth’s Casa Manana, she has brought the role of Cline to eight productions, along with co-star Steve Barcus. “I had my first opportunity to play Patsy in this show in Richmond, Va. and spent hours and hours listening to her recordings, listening to every nuance, slide and yodel. Each time I do the show, I immerse myself in the recordings,” she said. The show features 26 Patsy Cline songs, along with scenes from her life and reminiscences of her first night at the Grand Ole Opry, her Carnegie Hall debut, recording in the studio

Johnson said, “We often have families with three generations sitting in the audience, and they all love it.” Both Patsy and the show have a universal appeal, even among those who aren’t C&W fans. Johnson has done the show in about 300 performances in Virginia, New York, Texas, Oklahoma, California and Florida. She said about the late artist, “She was taken from this life too soon and it is an honor to bring her spirit and her music
to people, some of whom will share stories after the show of meeting her, seeing her perform or of having relatives that were in her band.” Johnson talked about her band with pride and appreciation. Several members of the band have toured with Lee Ann Rimes for years. Kevin Bailey is currently touring with Charlie Pride. Jerry Matheny, Kerry Huckaba and Garrett Roper along with Bailey make up the band. “And my co-star Steve Barcus not only plays five
characters in the show, he also plays piano,” she added. The busy actress said, “My finest production to date is my wonderful son, Trey.” This production is sanctioned by the Patsy Cline Estate. “A Closer Walk with Patsy Cline” will be at the Plaza Theatre in Garland for five performances only — Nov. 11 at 7:30 p.m., Nov. 12 at 7:30 p.m., Nov. 13 at 2:30 p.m., Nov. 18 at 7:30 p.m. and Nov. 19 at 2:30 p.m. For tickets, visit garlandartsboxoffice.com or call 972-205-2790.
