STATE FAIR OF TEXAS
‘Heavenly Deep-Fried Brownies’ a delicious gift
By Shari Goldstein Stern stern.shari@gmail.com
If you’re a State Fair food enthusiast, an extreme chocaholic, one who can eat the decadent favorite candy any time, night or day, you may have missed this phenomenon: chocolate at the Fair is scarce. Not to say it isn’t there, but aside from ice cream nut bars, the Toffee Queen, some fudge inside a building and, of course, Abel Gonzales’ deep fried concoction surprises (Always a hit. His cult following loves our King: chocolate around every corner.) So, knowing some fried food purists are looking for chocolate and want the two combined, here is some good news that’s been there forever
right under our noses. The Garza family has been crowded at their four booths since 1983. The thriving business is owned by an equally thriving family, which always makes a difference. With four locations, a few of the chefs’ offerings are breakfast tacos, deep fried arroz con pollo, pulled pork nachos, deep fried chocolate tres leche cake, Nathan’s hot dogs — the oh-so-favorite dogs from Coney Island, and the star of the show — “Heavenly deep-fried brownies.” The name says it all. The brownie has that perfect deepfried crust that’s not greasy. The texture of the brownie is everything you want a brownie to be, which is a surprise after all it’s been through.

Current initiatives will cause negative effect
By Naïma Jeannette @naimajeannette
Environmental regulations are taking a hard hit in this current administration. All of the progress we’ve made to protect our ecological systems are being overturned. With an intense amount of news these days, these regulation rollbacks have hardly received any attention. The oil and gas companies have been sucNaïma Jeannette cessfully lobbying their initiatives to leaders in the current administration, such as head of the Environmental Protection Agency Scott Pruitt. The New York Times put together a comprehensive list of overturned rules, rollbacks in progress, and rollbacks in limbo. Here’s a quick list of only some of the rollbacks that relate to our everyday life here in Dallas. This column isn’t big enough for all of them! • Keystone XL Pipeline. The pipeline was stopped momentarily but the company reapplied for the permit to build and it was approved by the current administration. The pipeline connects Canadian and North Dakotan crude oil to Nebraska where it would connect with existing pipelines to deliver the oil to be processed in refineries in Texas and Louisiana. • Dakota Access Pipeline. Remember all the drama on social media and news regarding the protests for the Standing Rock Sioux tribe’s cultural grounds that the pipeline would run through? On June 1, after the current administration fast tracked it’s completion, Texas-based company Energy Transfer Partners, had oil flowing. A federal judge has ordered a new environmental review. • Following the BP Gulf oil spill, tougher regulations were put in place to protect our oceans from future catastrophes. These are being rolled back. A repeal on offshore oil and gas drilling in the Atlantic and Arctic oceans has made more locations available for drilling. Scientists are scrambling to determine what effect an oil spill will have on extremely cold climates and possibilities for clean up. • Remember when National Parks stopped selling plastic bottles to lead the charge in cleaning up environmental lands and discourage the use of onetime use plastic? Well, plastic bottle companies have lobbied hard and the
National Parks Service has relaxed their stance. • The current administration repealed a rule regulating royalties for oil, gas and coal which made sure companies were paying fair royalties to the government for resources extracted from federal or tribal land. • Green Climate Fund. The current president has stopped payment to the Green Climate Fund, a United Nations program that helps developing nations adapt to climate change. Might I remind you of the 80/20 rule: 20 percent of the world’s population creates the pollution and environmental damage that effects the other 80 percent. We create the mess and others with less means have to deal with it. • Paris Agreement. We’ve heard our current president talk about removing the U.S. from the international agreement to lessen the CO2 in our atmosphere to keep the average global temperature from rising another two degrees Celsius. The international community forges on without us. • Fracking on public land. The rule never went into place because it is tied up in litigation, but the current administration is proposing to rescind the rule that would prevent fracking on public land. We’ve seen in the North Texas area the damage fracking has had on our environment and infrastructure. • The status of 10 national monuments and 12 protected marine areas are under review. Changing their status will threaten the resources and ecology of the now-protected wild spaces. The list continues on and is quite heart-wrenching. Big oil, gas, coal and plastic companies are lobbying hard to support the growth of their industries at all costs. Instead of leading the world in a change of how we conduct business while also taking into account environmental degradation, we are doubling down on our polluting ways. Some of these rollbacks will cause irreversible damage and at the very least set us back. We are not the greatest nation in the world if we can’t come together to create a viable economy that utilizes sustainable resources to protect the future or our country and the world for thousands of years to come. Let’s be in this for the long game. Less rollbacks and more forward motion. Tell your representatives today. Naïma Jeannette is a freelance writer, teacher and conservationist.

burns occur at home, according to the American Burn Association. And not all burns are the result of fire or flames. Hot liquids, such as soup, coffee, tea or tap water can cause serious burn injuries. In the last two years, more than 75 people have been admitted to Parkland’s burn unit for injuries caused by hot soup. Of those, 87 percent were children. So eat your soup. Just don’t spill it, or it will be “No soup for you!”

Sharing economy options abound By Joe Ruzicka
joe.c.ruzicka@gmail.com By now you have probably seen those lime green colored bikes parked around town for rent. Or maybe the ones with bright orange or bright yellow tires where you can hop on for a $1 and ride to the grocery store and back. V bikes, Lime bikes, and SPIN bikes are all hoping you pick their shiny asset and take them for a spin. They contain a GPS chip and require the user to have an app for the rental. If you ride sparingly, renting one is much cheaper and probably more convenient than owning your own bike. It’s just that the bikes appear to be left in some of the strangest places around town — like next to a dumpster at the hotel. Some of you have probably rented a room on Airbnb.com. Airbnb allows owners to rent full homes, suites, rooms or even just nights on their couch for a fraction of the cost of a hotel room. Airbnb, along with the ubiquitous Uber, is the poster child of the sharing economy. The idea that someone can make money renting an asset that would otherwise be dormant has changed the way our economy works. The sharing economy is all about collaborative consumption. In a sharing economy, individuals can rent or borrow assets owned by someone else for their own personal use. The assets borrowed are

normally something that is either expensive or Joe Ruzicka something that is not used frequently. Examples of great sharing economy niches include renting luxury cars, getting a cheap place to stay in midtown Manhattan, and avoiding $30-a-day parking fees at the airport by having just a regular dude take you in his car to the terminal. I think one of the key elements of how the sharing economy has changed our consumption is how we think about owning stuff. In the sharing economy, we don’t need to own so much because we can easily rent it. The ability to rent something luxurious for only a small amount of time has opened up the spectrum of opportunities. For instance, if you don’t own a Maserati but need to rent one for prom, just check out Toru.com. But this begs the question: do I really need a car 24 hours a day, seven days a week? Maybe not. If I can rent a car for just when I need it — such as trips to the grocery store — then why would I have a monthly car payment, insurance and maintenance fees for that one hour trip?

To be clear, we have had some form of the sharing economy for quite some time. Sharecropping, where a tenant farmer uses some of his crop as payment for renting the land he grew the crops on, has been around for centuries. Cooperative gins have been a staple of the Texas cotton industry for many decades. Cotton farmers belonging to a cooperative gin were able to benefit from a commonly owned gin and the difficult task it performs. Ginning cotton on your own would have been at best a chore and certainly not economically feasible for an individual. But this collaboration has taken off in the 21st Century and maybe even gone a little too far. AirPnP allows you to find the closest restroom, no kidding, when the need arises. Campinginmygarden.com rents out microplots for people to drop a tent on and camp in peace next to vegetables. On fiverr.com, you can pick any number of freelance artists to write, provide graphic design or even build a website for your project or company. In fact, I outsourced this article to fiverr.com. I was too busy checking out all my new sharing apps and I didn’t have time to write this week. How did they do? Joe Ruzicka is a retired Naval Aviator and F-14 Tomcat RIO.

Nightmare on Main Street, Dallas
Rangers season never took hold
david@katytrailweekly.com Mercifully, it is over. The 2017 season of the Texas Rangers was doomed from the start. They came out of spring training with many questions marks and very few answers. They got off to a slow start while the division rival Houston Astros rocketed to first place and never looked back. Despite teasing fans into thinking that a late rush to the second wild card spot in the American League was a possibility, they could never gain any momentum. Despite finishing in last place in 2014, this may have been the most disappointing season this decade. And the future looks hazy at best. There are just too many issues on this team as it exists, starting with pitching. The Rangers came into the season thinking their bullpen would be an asset. They couldn’t have been more wrong. Closer Sam Dyson was totally ineffective and was shipped off to the San Francisco Giants in June after a 1-6 start. Dyson was just part of the problem. The bullpen let nearly four of every 10 inherited runners score. That was the worst percentage in baseball. Jake Diekman started the season battling ulcerative colitis. The bullpen would have been better if he could have pitched all season. Pitchers like Tony Barnette, who allowed one in every two inherited runners to score, were ineffective. Starter, now ace, Cole Hamels missed two months in May and June. Yu Darvish couldn’t pick up the slack and was ultimately traded to the playoff-bound Los Angeles Dodgers at the trading deadline in July. They had gambled and lost on Tyson Ross, ultimately releasing him in September. Coming into next season, it will be Hamels, Martin Perez, possibly Andrew Cashner (who is free agent eligible) and a number of unfilled spots in the starting rotation. Hard to believe that this team actually won 10 games in a row in May. But that streak barely put a dent in Houston’s lead. Elvis Andrus had a banner year. But that was offset by Rougned Odor, who despite 30 home runs had the worst OPS (on-base plus slugging percentage) in the league. Robinson Chirinos emerged as a solid backstop, but only after former all-star catcher Jonathan Lucroy mysteriously lost his power stroke.
MLB
Rougned Odor had the worst OPS in the AL in 2017. Joey Gallo hit 41 home runs. But he was only given the chance to play in part because of Mike Napoli’s woeful .193 batting average. Outfielder Delino DeShields played with intensity, but that was only when given the opportunity because of an injury to Carlos Gomez. Adrian Beltre, beginning his 21st season next year, remains the team leader. But calf injuries forced him to miss more than one third of the season. When he is not on the field, it shows. The Rangers look rudderless. They run into outs and make questionable defensive decisions. In 2017, the Rangers hitters had too many strikeouts. Their pitchers gave up too many walks. Despite those issues and a 78-84 record, manager Jeff Banister was given a contract extension. The Rangers don’t expect to make wholesale changes this off-season, but they need to. The division is getting better. Houston is building a dynasty. The Oakland Athletics are young and getting stronger. And expect the Seattle Mariners and Los Angeles Angels to continue to spend money to try and improve. If the Rangers come into the 2018 season as they did in 2017 by overrating their talent and not being prepared for the inevitable injuries, expect another disappointing — and losing — season.

And while you won’t be able to obtain anything and everything from Maven, its lineup of EVs, compacts, sedans and SUVs is about as all-encompassing as one app will probably deliver. With rental rates beginning at just $8/hour, it should be cheap enough — even for those with six-figure student loans (or pickups!). Of course, in addition to the hourly rental option, you’re also welcome to rent via Maven for a week or a month. We like the idea of a Suburban for airport pickups, but we also like the concept of a vacation Suburban allowing us to skip the airport entirely. In a consumer environment defined less by what we drive and more by what we eat (the press event was held at Wolfgang Puck’s Source restaurant in downtown D.C.), the time would seem prime for ride sharing, especially in congested urban areas.

C. C. YOUNG
Senior living community has a broad service ministry with many no cost/low cost programs for people in need, on and off their campus.
By Sally Blanton
sallyblanton455@gmail.com Each week, Katy Trail Weekly will feature a charity that is doing remarkable work in Dallas, a city known for philanthropy and generosity.
QW hat is your facility like?
A Our campus is located on 20 wooded
acres north of White Rock Lake and is a beautiful green space. There are three buildings for Independent Living, an Assisted Living building, a Memory Care building and two mid-rise buildings for Long and Short-Term Healthcare. In the middle of the campus is our Central Park and home to The Point & Pavilion, which is our Center for Arts and Education.
QW hat is your mission or highest
purpose? Our mission is “to foster premier environments where every life at every age is valued and enriched.” We were founded because of one minister’s response to help one of his parishioners. Rev. Christopher Conley Young started raising money to help seniors in 1917.
A
Q H ow many people are served each year?
A We serve approximately 450 residents
on the C. C. Young campus and 55 residents at our affordable housing Umphress Terrace location in Pleasant Grove. Additionally, we are licensed to provide home healthcare, hospice and home services in 13 counties in the DFW metroplex.
QW hat percentage amount actually reaches those in need? Last year, 78 cents out of every dollar went to support benevolence.
A
QW hat are your critical needs now, be-
sides money donations? We are setting up a food pantry at our Pleasant Grove location. Many times, a new resident arrives on campus with almost nothing — no furniture, no food or cleaning supplies — items we all take for granted.
A
QW hat upcoming fundraisers are on the
calendar? Wrap It Up Luncheon, Friday, Nov. 10 at Brook Hollow Golf Club. Ticket price is $175.
Q H ow many volunteers do you utilize?
A We have more than 3,000 volunteers on our campus every year.
QW hat do you think is the most import-
ant thing you do for the community? C. C. Young provides tremendous service and community outreach: almost all of our programs in The Point are free or very low cost; we provide our meals for seniors in need at no cost via our C. C. Young Caresprogram; and our Community Services Team helps us reach out to those who are unable to join us on campus.

QW hat is the Benevolence Fund?

RESTAURANT REVIEW
Lower-priced options are plenty
By Sara Newberry If you’re looking for a fancy meal that’s going to set you back a healthy chunk of change, you’ll find lots of options in Dallas. From Flora Street Cafe to Fearing’s to Abacus to The Mansion, Dallas has its fair share of superior high-priced options. What is more of a challenge, though, is finding a meal at a lower price that is not fast food. But there are choices for those of us who prefer not to drive through at lunch or dinner, but also don’t want to lose our appetites when we see the prices on the menu. Here are some of my favorite lunch and dinner deals around town, none of which will set you back more than $10 per person. More often than not, if I’m hungry and don’t want to spend a lot of money I head to one of the various taquerias nearby. Most offer tacos for less than $2 each or tortas for

less than $8 each. Tacos la Banqueta, El Atoron and Taqueria Pinocho are all excellent options that will fill you up for not very much cash. Try the pastor (marinated pork) or the suadero (slow-cooked beef). My favorite sandwich option is Roll ’N’ Go on Greenville Avenue. The menu is packed with options under $10 — the most expensive dish is $10.99 — but my favorite is the banh mi or wrap special. Already a deal at $4.25 each, the three sandwiches or wraps for $10 special is too good to pass up. The other deal I can’t resist is three egg rolls for $1. An 8-inch sandwich loaded with meat and vegetables AND three egg rolls for less than $5? Sign me up. High Fives offers a selection of various sandwiches, including a superb French Dip and a gooey, satisfying grilled cheese. They are normally priced between $6 and $10, except from 4 - 7 p.m. Monday to Friday (and all evening on Tuesday), when they are all $5. Add a side of tater tots or tempura okra for $4. (They also offer a half sandwich & side, soup or salad deal all the time for $7.) Cane Rosso is known for creating authentic Naples-style pizza, and six years since the first location opened in Deep Ellum, have become the go-to pizza place for many Dallas residents. At $11 to $16 each, they are not necessarily expensive relative to their quality. But imagine getting one of those perfectly cooked pizzas for $5? You can! During Happy Hour (Monday Wednesday, from 5 to 7 p.m.) you can get a full-size Margherita or Emma pizza for $5. That’s as cheap as a fast food pizza, but these are pizzas you don’t have to resign yourself to eating. Snider Plaza denizen Food from
Galilee has outlasted most other local Middle Eastern restaurants, and one visit will show you why. All sandwiches — falafel, gyros, kafta kebab, shawarma — are $5.45 at lunch and $6.45 at dinner. A side of fries or rice is less than $3; a salad will run you a little more. I’ve never had a less-than-excellent meal there. If you haven’t tried Food from Galilee, check it out: there’s a reason they’ve been in business for more than a decade. The granddaddy of local dining deals is the famous El Fenix Wednesday enchilada special. While the price has gone up steadily over the years, it is still a deal that is too good not to take advantage of from time to time. A cheese enchilada dinner, regularly $8.79, is $5.99 all day on Wednesdays. That includes chips and salsa, which I can’t resist filling up on before my enchiladas arrive. (Go with a friend and share a bowl of queso or guacamole and you’re right at about $10 each.)

MOVIE TRAILER
‘Mark Felt: The Man Who Brought Down The White House’ fails
By Chic DiCiccio @chiccywood
If anything, “Mark Felt: The Man Who Brought Down The White House” has the clunkiest title of any movie released in 2017. The wordy title makes sense for this overly talky docudrama that seems more like pieced together dramatized sequences from a History Channel documentary. It also has some highly questionable and unfortunate casting decisions that don’t seem to make much sense. While Liam Neeson is a fine actor, he’s an odd choice to play Mark Felt, the FBI agent who is more well known as Bob Woodward’s Deep Throat informant. He looks the part; stoic, focused and unfazed by the chaos of Watergate, but he never once loses his Irish brogue. That and the paint-by-numbers plot and direction keep the suspense out of this wannabe political potboiler. Director/writer Peter Landesman does expect you to know your history and drops you into Mark Felt’s life just months prior to the 1972 Watergate burglary. Felt’s position as J. Edgar Hoover’s second in command gets cloudy when Hoover dies and the Nixon White House appoints L. Patrick Gray (Marton Csokas, always playing shady people) as the acting FBI Director. Once the Watergate break in occurs, Felt is put in between the needs of the
investigation and White House obstruction. Since Felt realizes that there is nowhere for him to turn internally, he reaches out to Time Magazine writer Sandy Smith (Bruce Greenwood) in an effort to put pressure on the White House. This leads to Felt’s informant status with the Washington Post’s Bob Woodward (Julian Morris) and the eventual downfall of the Nixon White House. While “Mark Felt” is highly informative, it has little to no suspense. Characters come and go and either directly threaten Felt or hint at it, but the paranoia and fear that Felt is feeling never comes through the screen. Even the underground parking garage meetings with he and Woodward are unimaginative when they should be loaded with paranoid thrills. They are so poorly conceived that you will wish you were watching Robert Redford and Hal Holbrook instead. One of the better aspects of “Mark Felt” is the bevy of talented character actors. Most notably, Tom Sizemore makes a welcome return to being a menacing creep and Michael C. Hall channels serial killer Dexter into the lawyer sleaze of John Dean. Josh Lucas and Tony Goldwyn get most of the supporting screen time, but the former is limited to looking perpetually outraged and the latter is overly emotional. There’s little effort in getting to know Felt and
his unique family situation, which features his wife, Audrey (Diane Lane), and his missing daughter. Felt fears that his daughter ran off and joined a counter-culture group or, at worst, the terrorist organization The Weather Underground. Since Felt himself is investigating (quite dubiously, also glossed over) the bombings perpetrated by that group, it should be problematic for him. Alas, it’s barely covered. While he’s not poor in the movie, Liam Neeson feels a bit miscast. Again, he doesn’t quite ditch his natural accent and when he becomes particularly outraged, it comes through far too much and is a distraction. It is refreshing to see him in a role that doesn’t involve him snapping necks and he does keep “Mark Felt” from feeling like a TV movie. The majority of the problems with “Mark Felt” fall on the shoulders of Landesman, who seemed to think his info-heavy screenplay would work by simply putting the camera down and telling his actors to talk. This story, while compelling and loaded with potential, requires flair and skill to create tension. This film has G-Men and government officials doing unbelievably shady stuff and it cannot hold a candle to the suspense of loud typewriters in the vastly superior “All The President’s Men.” With better direction, “Mark Felt: The Man Who

Brought Down The White House” could have been a fine historical thriller. Instead, it’s a history lesson with too many storylines told at an exceptionally boring clip. If you’re going to cram that much info into 104 minutes, it simply must be more entertaining than this.

DOTTY’S TRUE TEXAS CUISINE
Unique sweet potato casserole By Dotty Griffith
taste 1 cup tiny marshmallows
Nothing says fall more than sweet potato casserole. Del Frisco’s chef David Holben calls this version “Manhattan style.” Must be the red vermouth. Except for the marshmallows, Holben, is on target when he says, “This ain’t your mamma’s sweet potato casserole.”
Heat oven to 350 F. Butter a 2-quart casserole. Pierce sweet potatoes in several places with a fork and place in single layer on a shallow roasting pan. Roast sweet potatoes for 45 minutes to an hour until soft. Let cool enough to handle. Cut the potatoes in half. Scoop the roasted sweet potatoes into a large mixing bowl. Add butter, sugar, maple and vanilla extracts, bourbon, vermouth, egg, salt and pepper. Using an electric mixer on low speed, blend for 2 to 3 minutes until smooth. Place in prepared casserole dish and top with marshmallows. Bake for 15 minutes until hot and marshmallows are golden brown. Makes 6 to 8 servings.

wald.world@yahoo.com Is it time for “truth and reconciliation” in America? Most Americans who know what this is, think this is a process that took place in South Africa after the end of apartheid. But a truth and reconciliation process has recently completed in Canada, without any American news coverage I know about. In Canada the indigenous peoples, mainly concentrated in the western provinces of the country, have been discriminated against since the early days of British settlement. They were viewed mainly as sellers of animal furs to the Hudson Bay Company, and otherwise viewed as savages to be contained on reservations and in need of rehabilitation to the British, then later Canadian, way of life. In short, the indigenous peoples of Canada have always been considered second class citizens … until relatively recently. A process of truth and reconciliation to address this societal problem began in Canada in 2007 with a significant report published in 2014 outlining 94 recommendations to make the indigenous peoples of the country equal citizens. These peoples are now referred to as First Nations peoples, reflecting their place as the original occupiers of the
land. Today a resurgence of interest in First Nations cultures is taking place as members of the various tribes of the First Nations peoples are re-learning their cultural dances, languages and ways of life … things that they were intentionally stripped of by prior political powers in Canada. As Canada celebrates its 150th birthday, the recommendations of the truth and reconciliation process are being examined three years after their publication … and First Nations cultural sites are being developed to promote the culture. In Saskatoon, Saskatchewan Province, Canada, the local University of Saskatchewan recently opened a beautiful new cultural center for studying First Nations culture. And a half-hour outside Saskatoon, the Wanuskewin Heritage Park, is a protected nature reserve devoted to preserving the First Nations culture. At the site of Wanuskewin, indigenous peoples would congregate during the harsh Canadian winter months in a valley along the North Saskatchewan River to gain protection from the winter winds. It is here that buffalo jumps were performed … indigenous peoples enticing buffalos to chase them until the buffalos fell off a cliff into the river where their remains were able to be used for food and hides to build teepees and clothing.

YOUR STARS THIS WEEK by Stella Wilder
The coming week is likely to see many individuals recognize opportunities to make a new start in some regard. This doesn't mean, of course, that they will take advantage of it! Indeed, those who are eager for a change must acknowledge that there will be a good deal of hard work required to implement that change, and to make it permanent -- especially if there are others affected, either directly or indirectly. Everyone must remember that he or she is not, despite any sense of autonomy, entirely alone -- and what he or she will decide to do this week will no doubt affect someone else, somewhere, to some degree. Not only logistics must be addressed, but what others may think or do as a result of any perceived change must be acknowledged as well. Of course, this can be avoided by embracing the status quo -- but that's not an option for everyone this week. This is a good week for overcoming distance -- either through open communication or by way of vehicular assistance. Those who choose to travel the open road in order to make desired changes will have to prepare thoroughly, of course, and ready themselves for the surprises that will no doubt pop up along the way. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) You'll want to share new information with those closest to you as soon as you receive it this week. Delays can prove hazardous. (Oct. 8-Oct. 22) — Your own needs and desires may clash this week, and you may find yourself wishing you
could be in two places at once. A loved one helps you sort things out. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) You will have to take a more proactive stance throughout the week, as you help reduce friction between two warring factions. (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) — You'll want others to come to you with ideas and suggestions, but what is really in it for them? Make it clear that you will make it worth their while. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) You'll have a story to tell this week when all is said and done — but don't be premature in the telling of it. Final details matter! (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) — You may be stopped in your tracks at least once this week by someone you never expected to encounter. This helps you prepare for future surprises. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) You may have to beg someone to make concessions for you after you realize that the current state of affairs is not for you. Be honest. (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) — You may not appreciate another's attempts to take advantage of you this week, but you'll soon be ready to face a likely challenge any time it arises. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) You're pushed to the limit today by one who doesn't understand how busy your duties make you, but there may be no remedy for this just now. (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) — You may

find yourself grappling with certain issues that you thought had been dealt with permanently some time ago. Did you drop the ball? PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) There are certain ways you'll have to do things this week, but on at least two occasions you'll have the freedom to improvise. (March 6-March 20) — Are you qualified to do what someone is expecting you to do? If the answer is no, you'll want to make that clear sooner rather than later! ARIES (March 21-April 4) What you see isn't likely to be what you get, at least during the first part of the week. It's your own expectations that are out of sync. (April 5-April 19) — You may have had difficulty when sounding others for information, but this week you should get what you need by asking simple, direct questions. TAURUS (April 20-May 5) You may have a run-in with someone who isn't willing to yield to your rational approach. You must prepare yourself for a fight. (May 6-May 20) — Giving another what he or she wants may be the answer on one or two occasions, but you don't want to make a habit out of it. You must know where to draw the line. GEMINI (May 21-June 6) You may feel quite far from someone who has helped you find your
Copyright 2017 United Feature Syndicate, Inc. center in the past, so it will be up to you this week to center yourself! (June 7-June 20) — You may find, after examining all contingencies, that you will be able to grant someone else a favor with little or no impact to your own carefully laid plans. CANCER (June 21-July 7) What goes on all around you this week will have you changing your mind again and again, but ultimately you may revert to your original thinking. (July 8-July 22) — Focus on what you know, and all things will align correctly this week. If you let yourself be drawn into something foreign, much may be overturned. LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) You can learn a great deal about someone new, provided you do what you can to see the world from his or her point of view. Don't impose your own! (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) — There is much you want to do this week, and much you have to do, so you'll want to spend your time as wisely as possible to satisfy your needs and desires. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) If you find yourself at cross-purposes with someone you work with, do what you can to ease tensions. Start by assuming he or she is right! (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) — You can't be afraid of environmental influences, and this week there are likely to be many. Do what you can to rid yourself of any false assumptions.

WINDING ROADS
joannholt@gmail.com Who could pass up a chance to play Texas rancher for a weekend? Not this writer! While I may have grown up in the city, many of my relatives back then still lived in rural areas. Some of my happiest memories are of playing Cowboys/ Cowgirls and Indians with our country cousins. Since joining the Texas Outdoor Writers Association (towa.org), my husband and I realized how much we had missed spending time outdoors. So we’ve been trying to make up for it the past few years! Favorite adventures since we joined TOWA have included hiking in Big Bend National Park and river rafting on the Rio Grande in the Big Bend area of far West Texas. We also enjoyed boating and bird-watching in Rockport/Fulton on Aransas Pass, as well as walking on the beach and fishing in Galveston. Last weekend we visited a 200-acre spread just outside Columbus in South Texas. There we were treated to a jam-packed weekend of true Westernstyle activities. Ranch owner Herman Brune, incoming President of TOWA, hosted the 2017 TOWA Fall Stampede. The two-day event featured sanctioned BBQ cook-offs. Some elaborate rigs and preparations by these modern-day Cowboy cooks such as Double Barrel BBQ were impressive. They have come a long way from the old Chuck Wagon cooks. Barbecue dishes that were judged included beans, wild game, chicken, ribs and brisket. The weekend’s activities also included two rodeos, clay pigeon shooting, music and dancing on the outdoor dance floor. We also did some off-road driving with Ram, Toyota and Nissan trucks; the perfect way to explore more of the scenic areas on the ranch. With an authentic looking Old Western Town on the premises, along with Shaw’s Bend Social Club (a country club for folks who don’t belong to a country club), a swimming pool and rodeo arena all located on the Brune Land & Cattle Company’s property, there’s no need to go into town. Shooting club members built the Old Western Town for their use. They built a saloon with a working (out of tune) piano, and a jail with a cell and a cot. They even dug a mine on the property. Once a month they hold Cowboy Action weekends where

they dress in elaborate costumes of their own design. They take on identities like Bad Bart, Miss Kitty, or other nom de plumes to help them stay in character for the experience. Brune explained how one scenario works during our tour of the Western town. While in the jail, the “outlaw” starts out lying on the cot in the locked cell. He then grabs a nearby broom handle, gets the key off the wall, opens the cell, runs to the window and starts shooting targets. This process is timed, and at the end of the evening, scores are calculated to determine the winner of the whole shooting match. Not sure that I would be interested in participating in the shooting event since I only shoot with cameras, but I would love to go out and take photos of the costumes. RV parking is available on the Shaw’s End property as well. However, most of us who attended last weekend’s event opted to stay at hotels in nearby Columbus or Schulenberg. Herman Brune, who lives on the ranch in the historic home built by his great-grandfather in 1886, was a rodeo bronc rider for many years. So hearing him announce the Junior Rodeo events Saturday afternoon (where kids aged 6-8 rode ponies, calves and even a burro) was a special treat. It was surprising to see how well some of these young cowboys and cowgirls can ride. Shaw’s Bend Social Club (facebook.com/ shawsbendsocialclub/) is a few miles outside Columbus, a historic town that’s worth a visit in its own right. We had great food at Nancy’s Steak House at a very reasonable price Friday night before heading to the ranch. Jo Ann Holt is a longtime journalist, now writing about cars, entertainment and travel.

Weatherly, is now nearly a match for it ratings-wise. Fox. All three of Fox’s freshmen series — “The Orville,” “Ghosted” and “The Gifted” — have performed fairly well in the early going. None will be blockbusters, but they’re holding their own in tough time slots against NFL football matchups on Sundays, Mondays and Thursdays. Fox’s more serious problem is with “Empire,” a one-time ratings monster that lately has been losing its Wednesday time slot among 18-to-49 year olds to both CBS’ “Survivor” and ABC’s “The Goldbergs.” Fox’s “The Exorcist,” barely into its second season, is being bludgeoned on Friday nights while network executive heads spin over whether to plug in yet another Gordon Ramsay cooking show in its place before the November
ratings “sweeps” start. NBC. The Peacock committed to a second season of its “Will & Grace” reboot long before launching its second coming this fall. It’s a good thing then, that the Nielsen numbers have been strong in an 8 p.m. Thursday slot while its 8:30 p.m. followup, Season 2 of Tina Fey’s “Great News,” has fallen off a ratings cliff. NBC’s contribution to the war effort, “The Brave,” looks to be losing the fight on Monday night after inheriting big lead-in audiences from “The Voice,” which is strong as ever. The jury is still out on Tuesday night’s “Law & Order True Crime: The Menendez Murders,” which benefits by airing after the Peacock’s “This Is Us,” still a hit in the early stages of its second season. Ed Bark, who runs the TV website unclebarky.com, is a past member of the national Peabody awards board.
BROWNIES cont'd from page 1 Dominique and Manuel Llaguno. During weekdays, Denise goes to work following her job as an assistant special education teacher in DISD. “We opened in 1983 and our first location was on Nimitz where we introduced fajitas to the Fair. We sold tamales, beef fajitas, tacos and nachos. Two of our popular dishes today are Picadillo Gorditas and pizza. Of course we sell soft drinks and beer,” Denise De La Cruz said. “Our booth inside the Tower Building has just about all of those items on the menu, along with air conditioning” she quipped. The owner, Trini Garza, is retired but serves in many community organizations full-time. The close-knit families have a plethora of day jobs from insurance to gift basket coordinator at Central Market. Other “day jobs” include more teachers, electricians, a librarian and other professions. When asked about their dad and why the business has succeeded, Denise said, “We are able to continue this tradition from what he taught us because of the importance of value with family and community.” “Thanks to my mother and father, we share strong family values. The Garza family is all about family, food, service and church,” Norma Garza said. “Our father has always provided us the spirit of giving and helping in the community.”
