Mull it over

Life after the Dallas Stars: Strangis hits the stage, twice

By David Mullen

david@katytrailweekly.com After a 25-year career in radio and television with the Minnesota North Stars and the Dallas Stars hockey franchises, announcer Ralph Strangis abruptly decided that enough was enough. In 2015, Stars fans lost the voice that they had become very accustomed to, first as a color commentator and then a play-by-play man teamed with Daryl “Razor” Reaugh who together made Stars games a delight to watch and listen to.

Turns out Strangis had some things to do and one of those things was to become a college graduate.

“When I left I wasn’t really sure what I was going to do,” Strangis, 55, said. “I have

had a lot of interests over the years. I am a writer and have done some op-ed pieces for the Dallas Morning News. I decided to go back to college and get my undergraduate degree. I made the president’s list in the spring.”

In December, Strangis will walk

across the stage with a degree in training and development from the University of North Texas, which will allow him to continue his work in public speaking and corporate training.

“Hockey was great,” Strangis said, with the high energy cadence that made him a noted hockey announcer. “But it was sort of like Groundhog’s Day. I am living the same year every year.

Same team. Same city. Same people. Same airplane. Same results. I mean, you are up a little and down a little. I had 25 of the same years. I wanted to do something else. I still have a little juice left in me.”

In August, Strangis will take on a huge undertaking involving another stage.

Through his production

company ­— Senseless Productions — he will produce and star in a play called “Hospitality Suite” that will open at Gilley’s South Side Music Hall. “I always wanted to be in this play. I figured the best way to be in it was to produce it myself. I contacted (the playwright) Roger Rueff and I said ‘I want to produce your play.’ And he said ‘Who the hell are you?’

“I told him that I wanted to produce his show in Dallas,” Strangis said. “He said “When?’ I said ‘I don’t know.’

He said ‘Where?’ I said ‘I don’t know.’ And he said, ‘Well, get back to me when you do.’”

He approached Gilley’s about seven months ago with see MULL on page 3

you to establish a thirty-minute, three times weekly exercise program.

For those without restrictions, running and brisk walking are inexpensive ways to increase the heart rate and get the muscles moving. For those with knee or hip problems or those who are very overweight, consider water aerobics.

This does not require a gym membership, but if you have a pool or your apartment complex has a pool – youtube the aerobics routine and get at it!

Lastly, as the saying goes, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Take advantage of all preventative health measures available. Get yearly exams, prostate checks, pelvic examinations, breast exams, stool blood studies, colonoscopies, chest x-rays, etc. All of these measures have been proven to identify disease early – and early diagnosis always leads to better survival.

Take these three recommendations and there is a better chance that many of the common medical conditions can be avoided.

Using a strength of character — a trait that defines who we are — is even more rewarding than exercising a skill. Psychologists identified 24 character strengths — the positive parts of your personality that impact how you think, feel and behave and are the keys to you being your best self. Character strengths reflect the “real you” — who you are at your core.

In 1972 we started our first company with no plan to get back into project management and leasing. I was completing a large lease with an oil company when their head of real estate asked me if we could manage and lease their old CBD building. “We don’t have a management company” I told him.

Ready for a change?

By Turner Cavender turner@dallasfbbc.com

Do you wish you could change something about your life right now?

I’m here to argue Turner Cavender that change can happen in an instant.

I know this goes against popular thought.

Most people believe that change has to be worked at for months or even years. We expect to try and fail numerous times before we ultimately give up or succeed.

How many people do you know who struggle with their weight? They want to make a healthy change by getting in shape, but the change never seems to take hold.

Is there something in your life that you want to change? Do you have weight to lose?

Do you have high blood pressure? Do you have a pair of pants that you wish you could fit into?

What is keeping you from making a positive change in your life?

According to professional speaker and author, Tony Robbins, it’s the getting ready to change that takes time. In the end there’s a single instant when the change occurs. Robbins goes on to outline three specific beliefs that you must have in order to instantly create a lasting change.

Belief #1: Something must change.

Do you sort of want to get into shape, or do you absolutely have to lose the weight? Does dropping a few pounds sound nice, or is living another day in your current body unbearable? In order to make a lasting change you must be convinced that the time has come.

Belief #2: I must change it.

It is vital that you take full responsibility MULL cont'd from page 1 the idea of hosting his play.

He talked a friend Kit Hussey into directing and convinced friends Gary Walters, Brent Crable and Khalid Beard to appear in the “Hospitality Suite” cast with him. Strangis also had to hire a stage manager, a technical support person and an event manager. The public showings will be on five weekend nights on Aug. 19-20 and Aug. 25-27 at 8 p.m. “It is a million moving pieces, but we

in making the change. Sure, others may assist you, but in the end you are the one who is going to make it happen. You have to need this change enough to make it your personal mission—no one else will do it for you.

Belief #3: I can change it.

Don’t let past failures get in your way. The truth is that you do amazing things when you put your mind to it. Believe that you are capable of losing weight or making any other positive change in your life.

Why do most people fail to make lasting change? They leave it up to willpower. This works for awhile, but you’ll always revert back to what’s comfortable. The solution?

Change what you’re comfortable with.

You’ve probably heard that humans are motivated by two things: 1) to avoid pain and 2) to gain pleasure. When you want to change a behavior pattern the key is to associate pain with the behavior that you don’t want and pleasure with the behavior that you do want.

You know that you want to lose weight and that to do so you need to quit eating comfort food late at night. You also know that you need to start exercising on a regular basis. Up until this point your brain is trained to associate pleasure with eating comfort food late at night and to associate pain with exercise.

It’s time to retrain your brain to feel good about exercise and to feel bad about eating late at night. Think about all of the negative things about being overweight and connect these unpleasant thoughts to your late night snack.

Now think about all of the wonderful things about being in shape and connect these pleasant thoughts to exercise.

You are capable of making a big change in your life. Start by emailing me.

Remember, change can happen in an instant.

Turner Cavender, CPT, is owner of Dallas Fit Body Boot Camp and world renowned online personal trainer at cavendercoaching.com. “Remember J.A.M.O.D.I., Just a matter of doing it.”

are doing it,” Strangis said.

“Because I don’t have a theater … I mean, I don’t have anything,” Strangis said. “I don’t have any costumes. I don’t have any props. I don’t have any lights. Audio equipment.

Chairs. So everything has to be acquired or traded or paid for.

That was the only way I figured out I could make this work.” A number of businesses have supported Strangis’ efforts and the actually opening of the play will feature a marketing/networking event for sponsors on Aug. 18.

Selling tickets has provided another challenge. ”We are configuring the room the way that we want it, because Gilley’s really isn’t a theater,” Strangis said. “I had to learn the ticketing business.”

A comedy with dramatic overtones, the play revolves around three industrial lubricant salesmen trying to win the big account by hosting a hospitality party. The play was adapted into a movie titled “The Big Kahuna” with Kevin Spacey and Danny Devito. Strangis plays

the Spacey role. “There’s a lot in it,” Strangis said. “I love the script. It is really good.”

As busy as Strangis is these days, thoughts went back to his previous hectic life with the Stars. “There is stuff you miss and stuff that you are glad you aren’t doing anymore. I don’t miss the four games in six nights with the travel and getting in at 3 a.m.

Even though I love to travel, I am glad that is behind me. But I really miss the kids. I miss the players. I miss the young

people in the office. I miss the interaction. But I get some of that at school.

“I have traded some texts with some of the guys,” Strangis said. “[Stars players] Jamie [Benn] the other day and Tyler [Seguin] sent me a text. I pay attention to them [Stars] out of the corner of my eye. Twenty five years it was all about them. Now, it is all about me. I’ve got plenty to do.” Strangis stays in touch with current Stars play-byplay man Dave Strader — who

he worked with years ago and is battling cancer — but said he doesn’t talk to Reaugh.

Strangis still lives in Dallas in a one-bedroom apartment — with his jeep and his bicycle nearby — along the Katy Trail. “I get to do what I want to do,” Strangis said.

I try to think outside the box, combining flexible thinking with my analytical skills. I look for opportunities to solve problems in my volunteer work, as well as when I’m coaching people on stress management or weight loss.

Your Stars this Week The coming week will see many individuals scrambling to complete projects ahead of schedule, as the promise of greater rewards hangs before them like the proverbial carrot on a stick. Indeed, there is much to be gained by those who are willing to buckle down and complete their work ahead of schedule, but some may be envisioning far greater benefits and prizes than are actually available to them — no matter how quickly they work or how early they complete assignments. Some may simply fall prey to the false notion that faster is better, and their imagined gains are likely to be just that — imagined. Others will understand that potential rewards can indeed be increased, but that they may, in some cases, not be worth the increase in labor that would be needed. It's all a matter of balance — as usual.

Many will find themselves gravitating toward certain others. This can, in itself, bring with it many important benefits, not the least of which is an increase in creative output. There are dangers associated with this kind of commingling, however, and one must be careful not to lose touch with one's unique sense of purpose.

It happens: we come across a home so well-preserved, so architecturally significant, we almost want to throw a Prom for her. That home is 5350 South Dentwood Drive, right across from former Dallas mayor Laura Miller and former Texas state representative Steve Wolens in the honeypot of Old Preston Hollow.

The Grady Vaughn house was built by the Texas oilman himself but became the family residence of the late Dallas developer Allan Zidell in 1971. It is one of the most significant midcentury masterpieces not just in Dallas, but in the country. Built like a fortress with maple studs, the home sits on an unusually lush wooded and

waterfront-ed 1.36 acres at 5350 South Dentwood Drive.

In 1951, when Dallas was still learning to embrace the midcentury modern design movement, oilman Grady Vaughn commissioned architect Robert Goodwin of Goodwin & Cavitt to design his waterfront dream home in what we now know as the honeypot of Preston Hollow.

From a recent talk with Grady Vaughn Jr., I gathered the sprawling 9,500-plussquare-foot home (it has nine-and-a-half bathrooms) was designed to serpentine throughout the lush property, meandering alongside a pond on the Straight Branch tributary, weaving through and around original trees. Buildings developed for their sites have an inherent connection, and you feel it intensely walking around the Vaughn House setting.

Midcentury architecture was noteworthy for open floor plans, introduced through post-and-beam construction, and inviting the outdoors inside. The Vaughn House embraces these guidelines with ground-floor glass — and there is lots of it — sliding

This preserved home from 1971 is located at 5350 South Dentwood Drive in Preston Hollow. open as huge oversized doorways. Some sections are entire large, transparent walls, and smaller sections are actually window pocket doors. Think of large metal casement windows sliding out of sight for a perfect segue, a la the Camp House at Dallas Arboretum.

Also typical of midcentury modern design, Asian influences can be seen throughout the home, from cabinetry handles and pulls, to fireplace surrounds, to extra-deep pecky Cypress soffits, to privacy courtyards. As well, brass elements such as the (miles of) Terrazzo floor inlay and door hardware remind you how durable and beautiful it is.

Not a single inch of space was wasted and there is storage everywhere, whether it be hidden panels and doors or walls and walls and walls of built-ins.

For example, square wall panels in the dining room are really secured, felt-lined silver cabinets. The mistress side of the extensive master bath

holds myriad jewelry drawers (also securable) as well as custom designed shoe cabinets.

There are oceans of closets and pristine marble counters.

The fixtures are top of the line from the day. And the luxurious thoughtfulness in each room is unprecedented.

The Roman brick exterior of this mansion seamlessly incorporates planters, privacy courtyards, retaining walls, an outdoor kitchenette, and even a small boat dock. Considering all the topography and curves, the fact that each stone layer is placed so perfectly made my

OCD senses tingle. The giant “chapel” anchoring the front houses a staircase that is a work of art. I had opportunity to review the original drawings and Goodwin very specifically detailed every single facet of this project. I would imagine his carpenter had great job security.

Prior to Goodwin & Cavitt, there was Goodwin & Tatum, a prolific firm in 1930s and '40s Highland Park home design. Goodwin & Tatum’s style was much more traditional and the Vaughn House exhibits Goodwin’s career evolution.

Goodwin & Tatum’s most

iconic homes include the the Henry W. Strasberger (founder of one of Dallas’ oldest law firms) House (3500 Rock Creek Drive), 4417 Versalles Avenue (Flippen Park), and the ill-fated 4307 Armstrong Parkway.

5350 South Dentwood is being marketed by Alan Press and Mark Woodling of United Real Estate Group.

It is worth mentioning that O’Neil Ford’s 1957 masterpiece, the Haggerty House, is across the pond, sharing its lawn sculptures with waterfront neighbors.

Of note: Vaughn’s previous home is the Anton Korn design at 6676 Lakewood Boulevard, which Stephanie and Hunter Hunt now reside in while they restore the Ray Hubbard House at 6800 Lakewood Boulevard.

stephan@sardoneconstruction.com Now that I have a 10-month-old, I have to start adjusting my lifestyle and surroundings to become a safer environment for my little one.

Though she’s just on the verge of walking, she is already managing to get into everything. The kitchen, specifically, has been her latest territory to explore, so let’s talk about ways we can avoid accidents.

First, you’ll want to do a deep clean of the entire space, not just surfaces but also throwing things out. There will need to be some rearranging as well; you know, sharp things up high, out of sight and cleaning products hidden far back somewhere out of reach. Maybe even consider buying some green cleaners anyway, so that when you clean the kitchen, fumes don’t make your child ill. (It’s better for you too!)

Now, you can wrap everything in pool noodles and duct tape every hole, but it’s not going to look nice or be very durable. You might as well start out strong to begin with.

Perhaps the most important thing to do is seal the kitchen cabinets appropriately. Prevent those little hands from digging through dangerous territory such as the knobs under the kitchen sink. There are several ways to do this, but the most effective is by using internal locking devices, like the Safety 1st ProGrade magnetic cabinet and drawer latches, which require no drill. That way, they are out of sight and still effective at keeping your child out of harm’s way.

Just in case the lock becomes faulty or the latch breaks on that one trouble drawer or cabinet, think about installing soft-close drawers and cabinets. This will help to avoid any little fingers getting smashed or any loud slamming

Baby proofing your home is a never-ending responsiblity. or damage of your nice cabinet doors.

Keep your knives and other sharp devices up high or stowed away so the child can’t get to them or see them. After all, they are shiny and Stephan Sardone reflective; they’re bound to catch a curious eye.

Almost everyone has a medicine cabinet, and I know most people have a liquor cabinet, so look at where they’re located and make sure these spots are not too accessible.

Kitchens have a lot of appliances, and with a lot of appliances come a lot of outlets. Either cover those up or install Legrand pop-out outlets, which are hidden but once pushed, they pop out for use. Also, when possible, put the appliance as far out of reach as possible. For

example, the microwave is something that can be properly mounted high above, somewhere possibly even framed by cabinets. Also, try putting a latch on your fridge and dishwasher and maybe even secure your trash can.

Again, kids love to be where the action is, and often that’s at mealtimes, so keeping those outlets and switches covered will avoid a lot of severe accidents. In fact, I recommend that you get the self-closing outlet covers that slide back into place when the outlet is not in use.

While you’re buying appliances, consider the glass-top stoves as there is no open-flame hazard and it’s likely to come with a warning light and burners set back further from the edge. You may also want to look into stove guards, which shield the children from reaching onto the hot stove.

Some quicker tips: use placemats instead of table cloths, even for those birthday parties.

Trust me. The kitchen can be fast-paced and slippery, so consider throwing down some slipproof rugs. These don’t have to be high-end or expensive; they just need to keep your kids from falling and getting seriously hurt. Keep refrigerator magnets up high so no choking takes place.

Though it may seem like a lot can go wrong, the primary concern is to be cautious in the kitchen. A lot of people will basically tell you every single thing in your house is a danger to your child. In reality, children are fragile and we just need to take precautions for the obvious and keep an eye out for the not so obvious. For now, these are great starting points for your baby-proof remodel.

dotty.griffith@yahoo.com Street’s Fine Chicken is a family affair. Literally. I mean it.

The May opening assuaged many in the Oak Lawn neighborhood who missed the home cooking served at the now closed Black-eyed Pea. In the same location, the new concept has Black-eyed Pea roots.

Street’s Fine Chicken is the brainchild of Pea Co-Founder Gene Street, long known as the king of chicken fried steak and his all-grown-up children.

Son Marco, a mini-me of his famous father, is the “Chickenteur,” i.e. managing partner and proprietor.

The management team includes siblings Dace, Mariel and Gene Jr.; also Gene’s nephew, Tony Street, who is executive chef. Tony is the longtime chef-owner of YO Ranch Steakhouse as well.

Son Penrod works the door when he’s not in classes at University of North Texas Dallas School of Law. Working with his family is “like herding cats,” Marco laughed. “So many personalities. But in many ways we’re all very similar.” So far, it’s made for “a super strong team,” he added. “My dad comes in once a week,” Marco said. “He’s the fire that keeps the water boiling at the right temperature. He’s so paranoid about us making a mistake.

Already, (his experience and guidance) have kept us from a lot of woes and problems that a lot of people unintentionally walk into.”

The Street family also collaborates on the multi-location concept, Liberty Burger. Marco promises there are more restaurant ideas ripening in the family brain trust.

The flagship Black-eyed Pea on Cedar Springs Road was famous for chicken fried steak, pot roast and meat loaf, as well as fried chicken and also country cooking-style vegetable dishes. Street’s Fine Chicken focuses on, well, chicken.

Marco Street.

What the Street family calls a “southern chicken house” features three types of chicken — fried, roasted and grilled — plus “griddled” instead of deep-fried chicken fried steak. Sides are modernized as well. Maple roasted Brussels sprouts and creamy brie mac and cheese have supplanted broccoli rice and yellow squash casseroles.

Executive Chef Tony Street has added French flair with brining and herb seasonings for the chicken. He’s also created innovative starters like Chicken Lollipops, smoked then fried chicken drumsticks rolled in a Grand Marnier Horseradish Molasses Sauce; Pimento Cheese Fritters and Srirachaspiked deviled eggs topped with shaved jalapeño.

Yes, of course you can still get a side of black-eyed peas and whipped potatoes with cream gravy.

If you’re still missing some of those Black-eyed Pea favorites, Marco said that “Throwback Thursdays” will

begin this fall. First up: chicken and dumplings, also chicken pot pie, the two most requested stars of the old menu.

A lover and student of the arts, Marco’s passion is reflected throughout the restaurant. Inside walls are decorated with close-ups of beautiful chickens and chicken scratch art “painted” by chickens from Salado using their feet. An exterior wall of the restaurant features a large mural of chicken-inspired spoofs of classics painted by students of Booker T. Washington High School, Marco’s alma mater. Think fowl play based on works by iconic artists Salvador Dali and Grant Wood.

Nobody’s more surprised than the Street kids about how this is working out. “Mariel and I swore we’d never go into the restaurant business,” Marco said. They grew up working in one of his restaurants somewhere. “Even on vacation, I’d have to work in someone else’s restaurant out of town,” Marco said.

No matter what they thought, the Street kids couldn’t ignore the business that’s in their blood, which undoubtedly runs cream gravy. Marco and Mariel still exclaim to each other at least once a week how surprised they are to have gone into the family business … as a family.

“But we love it. We wouldn’t want anything else.”

MOVIE TRAILER

Grass is greener for director Paul Greengrass in ‘Jason Bourne’

By Chic DiCiccio @chiccywood

In the almost ten years since the third installment in the Jason Bourne series, star Matt Damon has had a bit of a spotty career record. Until the box office and critical success of “The Martian,” he starred in some big budget movies that underperformed and underwhelmed. It only made sense for he and director Paul Greengrass to return to the Photos courtesy of Universal Pictures character that has yet to not Matt Damon returns as Jason Bourne. impress.

Thankfully, they’ve living day to day and staying off the stopped putting ominous sounding grid. These days, he has turned to words such as “ultimatum” or “subare knuckle boxing near Athens, premacy” in the title and are going Greece to make a living. His world with the simple, yet cool sounding is turned upside down when Nicky “Jason Bourne.” The time spent away Parsons (franchise regular Julia seems to have affected the memory Stiles) shows up and tells Jason there of the filmmakers as there are sever- is yet again something he doesn’t al “been there, done that” moments know about his past. in the story, but the action is fully Naturally, the CIA is all mind blowing thanks to the worldover this and the new director of class skill of Greengrass. cyber crime, Heather Lee (Alicia As usual, Jason Bourne Vikander), is assigned by CIA Director Robert Dewey (Tommy (Damon) is alone in the world,

Lee Jones) to lead what seems like the one thousandth “Find Jason Bourne” task force. Dewey brings in The Asset (Vincent Cassel), a trained assassin in the same mold as Jason, to facilitate putting Jason down once and for all.

There is a timely aspect to “Jason Bourne” as a layer of the story involves a social network corporation’s CEO, Aaron Kalloor (Riz Ahmed), and the issue of internet privacy.

Naturally, CIA Director Dewey and Aaron don’t see eye to eye on that pesky spying issue and both Jason’s and this storyline crash together at a tech conference in Las Vegas.

“Crash together” is not a metaphor. The final 45 minutes of “Jason Bourne” is the most breathtaking, pulse-pounding, and eye-popping series of events to occur in the entire film franchise. Production shut down the Las Vegas Strip for several hours a night for almost two weeks to create what isn’t so much a car chase sequence as the most hardcore movie demolition derby of all time.

That finale does make up for what somehow feels like an anti-climatic return for such an iconic

UNCLE BARKY’S BITES

Ailes is out at Fox News Channel

By Ed Bark

unclebarky@verizon.net The Art of the Denial has outpaced “The Art of the Deal” in the nearly three decades since the 1987 Donald Trump book became a big bestseller.

The two oddly dovetailed last week when Trump’s darkand-stormy acceptance speech as the Republican Party’s presidential nominee came on the same day as the forced resignation of Roger Ailes, who had headed Fox News Channel since its launch on Oct. 7, 1996.

21st Century Fox, owner of the network that’s both blamed and lauded for creating the polarized political climate for Trump, did the right thing in cutting the 76-yearold Ailes loose after allegations of sexual harassment against him piled up during an internal investigation triggered by former FNC anchor Gretchen Carlson’s Ed very pointed lawsuit.

Several of the network’s on-air personalities publicly came to Ailes’ defense before reportedly damning private accusations from star player Megyn Kelly served as a knockout punch.

Ailes has denied everything in a manner reminiscent of Bill Cosby after a parade of women came forward to implicate him. But here’s where the true Art of the Denial comes in. Rupert Murdoch, the 21st Century Fox executive chairman who temporarily will assume Ailes’ role of FNC chairman and CEO, lavished praise upon the vanquished

Roger Ailes.

in the official announcement released just a few hours before Trump took the stage at Cleveland’s Quicken Loans Arena. There was no mention at all of what led to Ailes’ demise. It was as if he suddenly awoke on the final day of the GOP convention and decided, “Ya know something, I’m kinda pooped. Let’s call it a day.”

“Roger Ailes has made a remarkable contribution to our company and our country,” Murdoch enBark thused. “Fox News has given voice to those who were ignored by the traditional networks and has been one of the great commercial success stories of modern media …

Roger has defied the odds. His grasp of policy and his ability to make profoundly important issues accessible to a broader audience stand in stark contrast to the self-serving elitism that characterizes far too much of the media.”

He’ll reportedly receive a $40 million parachute and be retained as an advisor. And if Ailes indeed fostered a womanizing “culture” at FNC that

spread beyond his alleged personal sexual advances, well, profits speak louder than some of what he allegedly told Carlson. Namely, “I think you and I should have had a sexual relationship a long time ago and then you’d be good and better and I’d be good and better. Sometimes problems are easier to solve that way.”

Ailes, who coined FNC’s “Far and Balanced” mantra, is not leaving a network in decline – at least ratings-wise.

FNC is drawing its biggest audiences yet during this election year. And even though CNN made some significant ratings gains nationally during the GOP convention, FNC also did better than four years ago in both total viewers and 25-to-54-year-olds (the main advertiser target audience for news programming). The network’s audience of 9.354 million total viewers during the featured Trump speech portion of coverage ranked well ahead of CNN’s 5.477 million and was more than twice the haul of the most-watched broadcast network (NBC with 4.587 million viewers).

But will FNC be the same without Ailes? Or does it in fact need to be purged of high-ranking lieutenants who allegedly looked the other way and then supposedly contributed to a cover up?

As a further example of how polarized things have become, FNC’s “Media Buzz” and CNN’s “Reliable Sources” were night and day last Sunday morning in their coverage of Ailes’ exit. Both programs see FOX on page 9

character. Yes, Jason Bourne is a spy and as the old saying goes “spies gonna spy,” but watching him buzz around from Greece to Berlin to London, looking at files on encrypted drives then systematically dispatching his pursuers is old hat at this point. Also, it wouldn’t hurt for one of the Bourne flicks to not play the CIA as villains every time out.

The simple fact is that Paul Greengrass can direct circles around nearly everyone in the movie business, even when he allows his editor (Christopher Rouse) go completely rogue and make what seems like a cut every half second. Also, if you thought that Greengrass had learned there is such a thing called a Steadicam, well, you are mistaken and those with queasy, motion sick-apt tummies may want to avoid this one.

Several actors in “Jason Bourne” seem to be going through the motions. Tommy Lee Jones can play slimy bureaucrat in his sleep and he seems less than convicted here. The last few years have been excellent for Alicia Vikander, but there’s no doubt that she’s been much, much better than the one-note, doggedly

Camping in New York City?

By Michael Wald

wald.world@yahoo.com National parks in New York City? Yes, there are 10. You probably already know one of them — the Statute of Liberty National Monument and nearby Ellis Island form a park. All are fascinating. On this centennial of the national park system, I thought we’d look at national parks in the Big Apple.

Wherever I go the national parks never cease to live up to their great reputation. While many national parks attract a large number of visitors, the national parks of New York City aren’t super busy.

Only one national park in the New York City is suitable for camping out. The Gateway National Recreation Area is spread over multiple New York City boroughs and New Jersey. It consists of many refuges for local wildlife, mainly native birds and small animals. Its 27,000 acres are hard to summarize, Photo by Michael Wald so check it out online.

determined CIA agent she’s portraying here.

Oddly enough, the two most impressive performances are from the people who are almost doing a Marcel Marceau impersonation.

Vincent Cassel is fantastic as the no-nonsense hit man, even if he’s essentially a blunt instrument used to kill.

It was an intentional move to have Damon’s Bourne say as little as possible and it is inspired. It makes complete sense for this character to rarely speak as everyone he’s ever known either turns on him or is tragically killed. This is a top notch physical performance from Damon and he conveys all you need to know with his actions.

“Jason Bourne” is not the best in the series, but it is an entertaining action movie created with seemingly all practical special effects. It does leave the door open for Jason to return.

However, barring a serious change in the typical plot line or ramping up the action even further (which may not be possible), it may not be needed as it seems like the Jason Bourne train has entered the station.

BEAUTY cont'd from page 1 role in Baran’s beauty methods at Dallash. With Dallas’ societal pressures to look good and not a lot of healthy outlets to do so, Baran vowed to create something that delivers results organically.

“I’ve had a million spray tans that irritated my skin, and it’s hard to find that organic balance,” client Sara Daugherty said. “Kasia’s spray tan allowed me to not wear make up for a couple weeks, which gave my skin time to heal from previous blemishes. It also faded naturally, without splotches. My skin definitely

feels healthier for having done it.”

Baran chose Dallas because of the lack of competition, the potential for growth, and the needs of Dallas women. The shop’s location at Turtle Creek Village in Highland Park was perfect for her goals, she said, as the shopping center is catered toward women. With restaurants and other facilities dedicated to women’s beauty, health and wellness, her company fits right in.

Baran also pointed out that Texas is the only state with a specific certification for lash experts. There are two potential reasons for this, she said. Either it was voted in by

enough people who simply wanted to learn about lashes, or there has been enough bad work and accidents to where it was forced into the system to combat severe and detrimental mistakes.

Baran’s training and research has lead her to create her own balanced methods, which focus on safety, education, and quality results. In her opinion, Dallas has been scarce in professionals who get the training truly needed in order to be given access to people’s eyes. One false move, she said, could make someone go blind.

purport to look fairly and even-handedly at media performance and bias.

But Howard Kurtz, who previously hosted “Reliable Sources” on CNN before jumping to FNC, devoted all of three minutes of his one-hour program to the stunning Ailes downfall. On CNN, though, host Brian Stelter spent more than three-quarters of his one-hour show on Ailes, with one of his guests going so far to say that what he had built at FNC became a “cult” and “basically Scientology.” Somewhere there’s a happy, objective medium, but neither show came close to finding it.

In closing, let’s note that the Democrats also were neckdeep in The Art of Denial at the outset of their convention this week. At issue was the resignation of Democratic National Committee chairman Debbie Wasserman Schultz after internal emails posted by WikiLeaks showed the DNC to be highly partial to Hillary Clinton in her battle with Bernie Sanders for the Democratic presidential nomination. The DNC is supposed to be studiously neutral.

As with Ailes, no admissions or reasons were given for Wasserman Schultz’s resignation. And Hillary Clinton, in an interview on CBS’ “60 Minutes,” further strained credulity by telling Scott Pelley, “I don’t know anything, I don’t know anything about, uh, about these emails,” she said. “I haven’t followed it.”

places for both free and enslaved Africans.

No fee to enter this park.

Also nearby: the place where George Washington took his presidential oath of office, the Federal Hall National Memorial celebrates our first president and the beginnings of our country. Again, no admission fee.

Governor’s Island National Monument was an army base until 1966.

Now it is a center for art and culture, and a wonderful place to visit. Getting there is half the fun. Arriving by ferry either from Brooklyn or Manhattan, you’ll be transported back in history in a park setting away from the urban bustle. There is no fee for this park site. Let a park ranger give you all the details.

All of the national parks have their own websites with detailed information. Plan ahead, decide what to see. Whichever parks you choose you’re guaranteed to be enjoy it.
