New Funding Formula Could Threaten HP Schools R E A L E S TAT E

LAWMAKERS EYE CHANGES TO ROBIN HOOD RECAPTURE

Home of the month ideal for outdoor parties 25

By Joshua Baethge

Highland Park ISD officials fear the 85th Texas Legislature’s approach to education could mean bad news for Park Cities campuses.

As the biannual session got under way, school officials were communicating with state lawmakers and hoping to have their voices heard.

Potential changes on how the controversial Robin Hood law is applied could have a major impact to district funding, district leaders say.

Under the current formula, districts deemed property-rich, such as Highland Park, are forced to divert money to poorer districts.

Since 1994, HPISD has paid more than $1.2 billion to the state, including more than $80 million in 2016. While some of that money eventually flows back into the district, there is little to no local control over it.

The state’s recapture formula is based on a 1999 law that determines the amount wealthier districts owe based on property values. A new interpretation of that law last year concluded that the formula miscalculated how much wealthier districts owed. Under the

CONTENTS The Thing About Schools This month’s cover story focuses on schools, a topic that affects us all in one way or another.

Public education is difficult to write about because it involves two things that are most dear to our hearts: our kids and our wallets. Passions run high because we all agree that our community’s children deserve the best. We just don’t agree on exactly what that is.

One person’s innovative program is another’s example of wasted spending. Some say we should do less with more, while others contend that we can’t do enough with what we have.

It would be easy if we could simply defer to the experts. Alas, there is no consensus on who even has true expertise. Do we side with the educators or politicians? Or maybe we think we know better than both?

We are all concerned about where our tax dollars go. Often, that leads to debate over our responsibility to the “greater good” versus obligations to our own families.

The beauty of a free society is that we have the right to band together and embark on the path of our choosing. The downside is that if we choose wrong, nobody will save us from ourselves. The decisions we make today, good or bad, will have lasting consequences.

In this issue, we navigate these minefields carefully with a goal of presenting the issues as evenhandedly as possible, and hopefully we provided a few tidbits of information that may have made you think.

CONTINUED FROM 1 new interpretation, HPISD would actually keep significantly more money. However, that proposal would create a $100 million shortfall in state funding, motivating some lawmakers to call for a return to the previous formula.

“The Highland Park community is very supportive of all schools and students, but at a certain point, we have to look at what’s going on at the state level and say, ‘We need to support our public schools,’” HPISD chief of staff Jon Dahlander said.

Compounding uncertainty this session is the fact that shrinking budgets have left officials with less money to allocate, raising the specter of education cuts. The state sets funding at $5,414 per student, and allocates the money based on a district’s average daily attendance numbers.

HPISD is pushing to increase that amount to $5,415 per student, arguing that since 2008, property taxes have increased more than 44 percent, while education funding has increased less than 13 percent.

In order to maintain state-of–the art programs, Highland Park relies heavily on such outside organizations as Mad For Plaid. If the state doesn’t find a way to maintain or increase funding, Dahlander

“AT A C ERTAIN P O IN T, W E H AV E TO . . . SAY, ‘ W E N EED TO S U P P O RT O U R P UB L IC SC H O O LS . ’ ” J O N DAHL ANDE R worries that the district would have to ask the community to help even more.

“We are very fortunate to have Mad For Plaid,” Dahlander said. “So many people contribute to our schools.”

Lawmakers are again considering the possibility of school vouchers, which parents could use to help cover the cost of private schools. Some legislators have also advocated education savings accounts (ESAs), which would give families debit cards that could be used to cover tuition, school supplies, tutors, or even home school materials.

During a Feb. 5 televised debate, HP’s state senator Don Huffines advocated ESAs, contending they would foster competition, which he said, “made America great.”

“It’s what is going to make our school systems the best they can possibly be,” Huffines said.

Critics contend that the proposed voucher and ESA programs would not cover the cost of most private school tuition, but they would take much-needed funds away from local school districts.

“We fully support a parent’s decision to send their kids to private schools. That’s their right,” HPISD spokesperson David Hicks said. “What the problem comes down to is fewer tax dollars available to public schools. I don’t understand how you can create that system without taking money away from public schools.”

HPISD leaders hope that strength in numbers will help their cause.

In an unprecedented show of solidarity, superintendent Dr. Tom Trigg joined representatives from 60 other North Texas districts for a January press conference, urging legislatures to hear their concerns. The districts signed a formal resolution urging lawmakers to increase school funding, oppose vouchers, and ditch the new A-F grading system.

Schools from other regions across Texas have adopted similar measures.

“The resolution was an opportunity to go on record in terms of the legislative agenda for this session,” Dahlander said “Joining together to form a common legislative agenda

has not been done before.”

The grading system, which is based heavily on standardized test results, will formally go into effect in 2018. Every school in the state will be assigned a letter grade.

Schools districts worry that the grades will not accurately reflect their performance. In a show of hands, nearly every district representative at the press conference agreed that the grading system would eventually be used to divert money away from public schools to voucher programs.

Preliminary results were released last year, and while all Highland Park schools received an “A”, district officials still oppose the system.

“We are all for accountability. We hold ourselves very accountable and look at several indicators to determine the strength of the school district based on a number of factors,” Dahlander said. “We just think it’s very challenging to come up with a one size fits all strategy that accurately considers how a school is doing and boil it down to a single letter grade.”

The legislature probably won’t address the education issues until at least March.

HPISD officials plan to continue lobbying officials in person as well as via calls and emails.

“We are hopeful that our legislators will support us,” Dahlander said.

Leveling of Historical Homes Continues with Trammell Crow Estate Teardown

By Annie Wiles

People Newspapers Andy Beal, Dallas billionaire, banker, and economic advisor to President Donald Trump, is set to raze the 1912 C.D. Hill-designed Trammell Crow estate on Preston Road he purchased less than a year ago.

DFW Pre-Demolition and Estate Sales posted the news on Facebook Jan. 16 with details about property that will be sold off piecemeal before the teardown.

The Park Cities boast a number of historic homes designed by world-famous architects — a number that is rapidly decreasing as a generation of homeowners who share a distaste for “used homes,” a new vernacular for homes that already exist and which other people may have already lived in, move in to the neighborhood with cash to spend on teardowns and custom building.

David Preziosi, executive director of Preservation Dallas, says inflated property values are feeding this mentality.

“Lot values are increasing, but house values are decreasing,” he

C O U R T E SY P H O T O

said. “What’s starting to happen is ... people are buying the houses and lots for lot value, so basically the houses aren’t worth anything.”

In the last six months, the town of Highland Park has issued demolition permits to 15 homeowners. In the past five fiscal years, 157 demolitions were granted.

These permits can be found online. They are accepted once the seven code compliance regulations are confirmed and the $200 price tag paid, according to Highland Park Development Services Manager Kirk Smith.

Smith says the process is mod-

eled on University Park’s, which has similar pre-demolition inspection requirements, and, similarly, no regulations on what properties will be approved.

“The only thing we refer to is the state of Texas historical markers, and I don’t know that there are any in the Park Cities,” Smith said. “The town doesn’t have anything to stop any properties from getting torn down.”

“It’s unfortunate that that’s the situation over there,” Preziosi said, “because there really are — not as many any more, but there are still a lot of — historic places, [but] developers can make [more] money off the lot without the

house on it.”

The Trammell Crow estate is a high-profile example because of the astronomical price tag, and because of the Disney-castle wow-factor, but it is hardly the only famous home to earn the death sentence in recent history; another Hill-designed house just a few blocks down and a slew of O’Neil Fords, including the Penson house on Armstrong Avenue, have met the same fate.

“It’s ... an opportunity to make money,” Preziosi said. “If you look at the Penson house, which just sold last December, they ... tore down the house and now they’re marking it for $1 million more than they bought it for.”

There are no preservation districts in the Park Cities, so while an organization like Preservation Dallas can put Highland Park buildings on its Most Endangered Historic Places list, it can’t legally protect a building; nor do the Park Cities have any legal recourse to landmark houses, so the only efforts to preserve old buildings are elective.

The Park Cities Historic and Preservation Society (PCHPS), whose stated mission is “to preserve, protect, and promote the historic, architectural, cultural,

and aesthetic attributes and traditions of the Park Cities,” has appealed to local authorities to address residents’ concerns about preservation.

“We are saddened to see so many existing properties in our community not restored and instead replaced,” PCHPS President Kendall Jennings said. “Unfortunately, there is no legal action PCHPS can take in order to prevent property owners that wish to tear down and build new structures.”

Jennings said she personally spoke with Highland Park and University Park officials, who declined to issue a statement except to say that they were operating within Texas’ property rights laws.

“Unless they enact an ordinance that enables property owners or groups to landmark,” Preziosi said, “there’s nothing that can be done.”

Competitive property values are a hallmark of the Park Cities, and homeowners seek to increase their value by updating, renovating, or rebuilding. But when all the history has been erased and paved over, preservationists worry that in terms of true value, the Park Cities are at a loss.

UP Aims to Bury Snider Plaza Parking Problem

By William Taylor

People Newspapers

“[ UNDERGRO UND] SEEMS TO BE WH E R E PARKI NG IS G O I NG TH E SE DAYS I N U NI V E RSIT Y PA R K . ” ROB B I E C OR D E R About a half-acre on Haynie Avenue could offer at least a partial solution to parking challenges at Snider Plaza, University Park officials say.

To provide parking for employees of Snider Plaza businesses, the city would replace the vacant apartment buildings on the 22,500-square-foot site with an underground garage.

“That seems to be where parking is going these days in University Park,” City Manager Robbie Corder said.

Corder envisions having attractive open space above ground with one or more levels of parking below.

“The city has struggled for years with trying to provide adequate parking in the Snider Plaza retail area,” Corder said.

The City Council on Jan. 17 tentatively agreed to purchase two and a half lots from SPC Hillcrest LP for $3.25 million and put down $50,000 in earnest money.

The purchase contract includes a 60-day inspection period — twice the typical length — to give city officials time to meet with the Commercial-Retail Advisory Committee and the SMU

Land Sale Reserve Committee, Corder told council members.

City staff would also meet with Snider Plaza merchants and property owners about the project and the potential for their employees to use the new parking, he said. “Meeting with those groups will be important toward the success of that goal.”

Those meetings will also help city staff determine whether to propose charging Snider Plaza employees to park in the garage and how large a garage to propose, Corder said.

Underground parking costs about $25,000 to $30,000 a spot and the proposed property could accommodate about 50 parking spaces per level, he said.

City staff proposes paying for the land purchase and garage construction with money collected from the sale of rights of way during the development of the President George W. Bush Center, the complex at SMU that includes the presidential library and museum.

There’s about $15 million in the SMU Land Sale Reserve, Corder said.

Under the land purchase agreement, SPC Hillcrest would be responsible for demolition and removal of the existing buildings, while the city would handle replatting of the lots at 3432 and 3428 Haynie and half the lot at 3424 Haynie into one property.

There’s no timetable yet for building the garage, but Corder said he hopes it would mirror the Park Plaza construction schedule.

The nearby Park Plaza development, which will replace the old Chase Bank building at Hillcrest and Daniel with a six-floor tower featuring office, restaurant, and retail spaces, is expected to have 490 underground parking spots, according to uptexas.org.

DANCE FOR KIDNEY CANCER RESEARCH

By William Taylor People Newspapers

Merlinda Chelette wasn’t expected to still be here, much less planning a fundraising party at the Dallas Country Club.

But four years after a stage IV kidney cancer diagnosis, she is serving as co-chair for Rock the Cure for Kidney Cancer, a new event organizers hope will become an annual affair.

“For some reason God has allowed me to live longer than the average kidney cancer patient,” said Chelette, who has had two back surgeries, a kidney removed, and three rounds of high-dose radiation since her diagnosis in August 2012.

The four-year survival rate for those diagnosed with stage IV kidney cancer — meaning the disease has spread to other parts of the body — is only 10 percent, according to the Cancer Treatment Centers of America. The five-year survival rate is 8 percent.

But researchers at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center’s Harold C. Simmons Comprehensive Cancer Center are working to improve those rates, and all proceeds from Rock the Cure on Feb. 25 will go toward

that effort.

The Kidney Cancer Program, formalized in 2013, involves more than 20 physicians and 40-plus other scientists, according to utsouthwestern.edu.

Chelette, of Arlington, serves on the Patient Council Board at UT Southwestern and volunteers weekly at Simmons.

Wanting to do more to increase kidney cancer awareness and raise research dollars, she used an online support group at smartpatients.com to connect with kidney cancer patient Ralph Knapp, of Virginia Beach, Virginia.

Knapp and his wife, Brenda, raised more than $300,000 to fund a clinical trial at the Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore and UT Southwestern and founded the nonprofit Kidney Cancer Coalition, according to the coalition’s website beatkc.org.

The coalition sponsored its first Rock the Cure event last year in Virginia Beach, raising more than $100,000 for cancer research.

The Dallas event will include dinner, dancing, and an auction.

The Big Daddy Band will perform and Dallas’ Aaron Aryanpur, 2012’s Funniest Comic in Texas, will emcee.

Aryanpur, who lost his father to cancer last year, is filling in for comedian Larry Garza, of San Antonio. Garza had to withdraw because of complications related to his own battle with kidney cancer, Chelette said.

“Many of the people involved with this event have some relation to kidney cancer,” she said.

Outdoorsman Joe Bird, husband of Rock the Cure co-chair Anita Bird, of Hawkins, is a stage IV kidney cancer survivor.

On beatkc.org, Chelette describes how the first hint of her illness emerged as persistent lower back pain.

“Thinking that I had pulled a muscle while working as an ER nurse, I ignored this pain,” she said. But as the pain increased, she sought care and learned she had a tumor on her right kidney and the cancer had spread to her second lumbar vertebra.

“As my husband and I drove home with the news of cancer, I looked at my wonderful husband of 24 years realizing all our dreams of growing old together had vanished,” she said. “My future looked bleak and my dreams were shattered.”

Still a cancer patient, her future remains uncertain.

Special Contributor The Dallas String Quartet is grappling with a bit of an identity problem.

Its name conjures visions of the traditional foursome that it has long been, performing renowned classical music compositions for guests at elegant galas, weddings, and even for Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama.

But the quartet is also building a solid reputation as a rock act.

Backed by a drummer, guitarist, and keyboard player, the group wows crowds at concert venues throughout Texas — and, increasingly, across the nation — by plugging in their violins, viola, and cello and delivering high-energy covers of pop and hardrock chart-toppers.

The quartet has performed selections from its unlikely repertoire —­which includes Guns N’ Roses’ “Sweet Child O’ Mine,” Bon Jovi’s “Livin’ On A Prayer,” Adele’s “Hello,” and Daft Punk’s “Get Lucky” — ­ at such large venues as AT&T Stadium, House of Blues Dallas, and AT&T Center in San Antonio.

In February, the group played at Uptown Theater in Grand Prairie and at the Cedarburg Performing Arts Center in Wisconsin.

The quartet, which took the stage at

“I don’t know if it will benefit me, but hopefully the people who come after me,” Chelette said.

“That’s what I want to try to do before I go home.”

nearly 200 events last year, has also previously served as the opening act for such big names as Kenny G, Chicago, and Air Supply.

Having released its fourth album last summer, Dallas String Quartet Electric has amassed a sizeable fan base via Spotify and Pandora, as well as on YouTube.

Nevertheless, violist and principal musician Ion Zanca said, “To be honest with you, [the name is] working a little bit against us.”

In January, the group performed in New York City as part of a showcase hosted by the American Association of Performing Arts Presenters, a trade organization whose members include agents who book acts at entertainment venues around the world.

Zanca said some industry pros at the event were a bit perplexed about how to promote the quartet’s electrified shows to prospective audiences.

“They’re afraid if they just say string quartet, people are gonna think of it as a classic string quartet.” That’s why, he said, “Lately, we’ve just been going by DSQ Electric just to get a little bit outside of the string quartet [stereotype].”

Born in Romania to musician parents, Zanca founded Dallas String Quartet a decade ago while majoring in music at SMU. Back then, he recruited a few classmates to

The group’s lineup of classically trained musicians has changed over the years and now features bassist Young Heo and violinists Tatiana Glava and Melissa Priller.

(Violinist and SMU alum Eleanor Dunbar also occasionally fills in.)

During college, Zanca performed with both the Irving and the Plano Symphony Orchestra and subbed with the Dallas Symphony Orchestra.

“I liked it, but after a while I just couldn’t see myself doing it completely [as a career] because I really wanted to experiment and try new things,” he said.

The turning point came in 2008, when the Dallas String Quartet performed at a local charity ball. “I just felt like we were furniture, just there to look pretty [but] no one could really tell what we were playing,” he said. “So I thought, ‘There has to be a way we can really be heard.’”

He ordered a customized electric viola and soon began utilizing other specialized equipment during performances.

“We try to be inventive and use [effects] pedals and sounds to imitate voices” found in pop, rock, and jazz songs, 36-year-old Zanca said. “It’s a cool process.”

These days, most of DSQ Electric’s performances are separated into two parts: an arrangement of classical pieces and a second act of pop and rock songs.

They’re also fond of mashing together tunes. In one arrangement, the music of Paganini morphs into the Gloria Gaynor disco anthem “I Will Survive.”

Audiences “are just fascinated” by DSQ Electric’s concept of incorporating two musical genres into a single show, Zanca said.

“The repertoire is so wide, literally from Bach to Bono, so ... there’s something for everybody.”

Priller, a recent SMU graduate, joined the quartet in 2013. She also teaches at the Dallas Academy of Music and Performing Arts.

The 23-year-old Chicago native said she prefers to crank out rock tunes on her violin, which she began playing as a toddler.

“I always thought I could do the classical thing, but ... my dream was to get into a more modern, contemporary electric-string group,” she explained.

The quartet’s repertoire “turns a lot of heads … and everyone always seems to have a positive response to it,” Priller said. “A lot of times people will say, ‘I like your version better than the original.’

That’s my favorite compliment.”

Sipping on GEM and Juice Best friends celebrate five years of ‘honestly organic’ business

By Amber Hamilton

Special Contributor Leslie Needleman and Mary Kathryn Bass continue to celebrate health and wellness five years after opening their first GEM Juice Bar in Dallas.

“Our product that we offer has grown, the community has grown, the classes have grown, the blog has grown,” Bass said. “It has all gone up.”

recipes, and drink the juices they made.

Needleman insisted the juice bar décor be modeled after Bass’ home because it was the perfect aura for the GEM, with bright yet inviting colors and furniture.

“We would have a juice club meet at my house, which is very colorful with lots of orange, pink, turquoise, and green,” Bass said.

The women wanted their business to be a place where people could learn how to be healthy while enjoying their food and drinks. The juice bar’s website offers a blog with a variety of recipes and health tips for anyone looking to live a healthier life.

The GEM also serves soups, salads, and smoothies, and offers an array of organic products and health counseling classes.

“We’re already different from everyone else,” Needleman said.

“The main difference is we are very authentic, and we do live this life, and the products that we have are approachable.”

The women work hard to make

the recipes healthy but also tasty.

They say it’s all about promoting authenticity, health, and happiness.

Needleman, who has almost 20 years of experience in marketing, said the product development is always fresh.

“It’s honestly organic,” she said.

“We work hard to make sure the products stay consistent. We have product development that’s ongoing to make things better. There’s a brand-new soup that speaks more toward eliminating things from [your] diet — the mushroom veggie power, a puree soup that is flying off the shelves.”

Needleman was a health counselor before the GEM opened and Bass suggested they use her motto at the juice bar: they say “the GEM is another way for you to have diamonds on your inside,” Needleman said.

C OM M U N I T Y

The Night After Christmas, and All through the Spring I like to travel on Christmas Day to see my grandchildren, when nobody’s in the airport except for skeletal crews.

As spring approaches, Christmas 2016 is finally over for me and American Eagle airlines. That would be American’s regional partner, Mesa Airlines, which is the only way to get to Lexington, Kentucky. Period. Zero competition. It’s cheaper to fly to New York or L.A. than to fly “the Eagle” to this small city on one of its two daily offerings.

The day dawned gorgeous with all the blizzards and extreme weather on the coasts, not in the middle of the country.

As expected, the plane was not full so I was upgraded, and it was only running 25 minutes late. I was anticipating a Christmas feast so I hadn’t brought food, although through the two and a half hours plus time change you only get pretzels, even in first class. Just as we were descending in a mid-afternoon fog, wheels down about to touch down, I sneaked on my phone to see a text from my parked daughter: “Where U? Peeps coming out w bags. Baby crying.”

As I was about to respond, suddenly the plane started ascending steeply and alarmingly fast. Cell phones went on all over the plane with zero

announcements from the cockpit. By now, the entire plane knew that despite fog, both pilots on United and Delta flights to Lexington had just landed. We were finally informed from the cockpit that we were going two hundred miles

north to Columbus, Ohio due to poor visibility. We would refuel and return, on a now four-hour flight at night, to DFW Airport. Chaos erupted. I joined the mutineers who refused to fly anywhere else with a guy who spoke broken English and an ashen co-pilot who looked maybe 14. Either these guys must not have been instrument-rated or it was their first flight on a slow airtraffic day to a sleepy airport.

Long story longer: we refused to spend Christmas night at a cheap airport hotel in Columbus to face a 5 a.m. flight through Charlotte the next morning. So after two hours of arguing, the harassed gate agent put 18 of us in cabs to Cincinnati, which was an hour from Lexington. I was appointed den mother to a college kid and a beleaguered woman from India who spoke no English and couldn’t get her cell phone to work. As I was calling my family who were trying to get me a room in Cincinnati, our cabbie took a detour to the Xavier college dorm; the kid had bribed him on the side.

Finally, after reuniting my new friend with her husband, I crawled into the last Uber in America still up at 9:30 p.m. on Christmas night, procured by

my miraculous family. He was from the Church of the Holy Ghost and witnessed to me for the last leg of this Odyssey. I was now desperate for an adult beverage, never mind the food.

I reached my family’s darkened drive close to 11 p.m., nearly 12 hours since I had arrived at DFW; about the time it would have taken me to drive to St. Louis from Dallas. My back was killing me and I only wanted my nightgown... which I couldn’t get. The airline had broken the zipper on the bag.

Three months and many phone calls and letters later, my new suitcase arrived. I would not settle for the $63 Chris from customer relations told me American Eagle would be happy to refund me, a valued customer, for the portion of my flight that had been diverted. Then the customer relations got mixed up and wrote a letter saying they were sorry they couldn’t give me funds for my (non-existent) son’s broken headphones. For all of this I finally got 25,000 miles, which I’m using now to book on American Eagle for a summer trip back to Kentucky.

This time, I will show up at the airport with food, lots of books, a little pillow, and low expectations.

RECORD SEVEN HPHS BAND MEMBERS EARN ALL-STATE HONORS

By Mac McCann

Special Contributor

“EV ERY B ODY ’ S BEEN WOR K I NG S O H A R D, I T M A KE S T H E PE R S ON TO YO U R RIG HT WOR K H A RDE R AND T HE P ER S O N TO YOUR LEFT WO RK H A R D ER . ” JACKS O N SM IT H A record seven Highland Park High School students were selected to the Texas All-State band, the highest honor band members can achieve.

After rehearsing for three days with nationally recognized conductors, the All-State band performed Feb. 11 at the Texas Music Educators Association (TMEA) All-State Convention in San Antonio.

C O U R T E SY H P I S D

Back Row: Band director Reagan Brumley, Aaron Pathak, Grace Zhao, and Charlie Conner; Front Row: Jackson Smith, Peter Davies, Abby Justine, and Madison Triplett.

“It’s such a big deal,” said director Reagan Brumley, who has led the HPHS band since 2011.

“I’m floored by how the kids have stepped up to that challenge.”

While making all-state is an individual honor, junior Jackson Smith, a trumpet player, said it was more than that.

“More than me, I think this is a reflection of how well the band is

doing,” he said. “Everybody’s been working so hard, it makes the person to your right work harder and the person to your left work harder. It’s a huge domino [effect] and it showed with a record number of state players.”

Last year, only freshman Peter Davies, an oboe player, made the all-state band. He earned the honor again as a sophomore, but this

time was joined by clarinetists Abby Justine, a senior, and Aaron Pathak, a junior, as well as sophomores Charlie Conner, Madison Triplett, and Grace Zhao, who play the euphonium, the bassoon, and the oboe, respectively.

In addition to setting a school record, the Highlander Band placed more students on the allstate band than any other 5A

school in Area D, which covers most of Dallas, Waco, Temple, College Station, north Austin, and the Tyler area.

Students practiced for months before their auditions in December and January.

“It speaks to their level of commitment,” Brumley said. “These kids are amazing. They really are.”

The students credit Brumley as their inspiration.

“Aside from just being our band director, he’s really a big mentor in our lives,” said Triplett, who added that she had “been dreaming about this [honor] since I started [band] in the seventh grade.”

Justine described the entire experience as “surreal.”

“It’s great to see how supportive, not only our teachers and staff here are, but around the community and around HPISD, they’re all just extremely, so extremely supportive. Even when I didn’t believe in myself, I know they believed in me,” she said. “It’s like all these six years I’ve been doing band, I never would’ve thought, at the end of the road, the very last year, I would’ve made it. It’s insane.”

Alt Philanthropy

Teens tap indie music to support causes

By Meredith Carey

Special Contributor At first glance, heading backstage, Caitlin Ferguson and Ramisha Sattar look like two average high school students hoping to get a glimpse of their favorite bands.

A second look reveals the duo shaking up the Dallas music scene, with 20 young writers, photographers, and artists in tow.

Ferguson and Sattar are the founders of Alt Philanthropy. They interview and photograph popular and up-and-coming pop and indie bands. Those bands sign some merchandise for Ferguson and Sattar to sell on their website. The sale runs alongside the band’s interview, and the proceeds are donated to a charity of the artist’s choice.

“We met at a concert in Seattle and became really good friends quickly. We both just have such a big passion for music,” Ferguson said. “We started out with really small bands, using Spotify to find new music and emailing them to see if they’d be interested in working with us.”

Ferguson, a Highland Park High School senior, and Sattar, a Plano West senior, have grown to interview such bands as Mowglis, Bad Suns, and Great Good Fine Ok, all of whom have more than 500,000 monthly

“ONCE THE BAND AND THE CREW NOTICE WE’RE TAKING IT SERIOUSLY, THEY DO THE SAME.” CA IT LI N FE RGUS ON

listens on Spotify. The proceeds of signed T-shirts, Polaroids, and pins designed by Sattar have gone to the likes of Hungry for Music, Save the Children, and Planned Parenthood.

“Interviewing Declan McKenna was my best experience so far,” Sattar said. “Most of the time, it’s a bit uncomfortable when the bands and managers first realize we’re in high school. But with Declan, he’s 17, and so are we. The things he talked about, his sense of humor, it was just really easy to talk to him.”

Sattar and Ferguson, and many of their contributors, are younger than 21.

“A lot of times, we look like a bunch of teenage girls just trying to get backstage,” Ferguson said. “They think it’s a scam. We

K E LS E Y K R U Z I C H

Sattar (left) and HPHS senior Ferguson partner with bands to help worthy causes.

have to make sure we’re taking it really seriously, and once the band and the crew notice we’re taking it seriously, they do the same.”

For the most part, social media has been the driving factor behind Alt Philanthropy’s growth. Sattar, who also contributes her illustrations to Rookie Magazine, an online art magazine for teens, attributes their Twitter success to bands’ rabid fan bases.

“A lot of these artists have a strong following so when they post about us, and our T-shirts and stuff, the fans will follow us,” Sattar said. “Plus, the music scene in Dallas is pretty close, so you see people around that know people and know you and will help follow and promote you.”

So far, Alt Philanthropy has raised a few hundred dollars, but Ferguson and Sattar have plans to grow their project far beyond Dallas as many of their contributors graduate from high school. Ferguson is heading to Nashville for college, while Sattar is staying in North Texas.

“We know people going to school all over the place,” Ferguson said. “So we’re looking forward to opening more branches, having access to more artists, and getting our name out even more.”

Mission of Kindness ESD fourth-grader starts blanket drive for homeless

By Joshua Baethge

People Newspapers As the temperature was starting to drop on a weekday afternoon in early January, something outside the car caught the attention of 10-yearold Jonty Welberry.

“I saw people on the streets freezing,” Jonty said. “I thought of donating blankets for them to stay warm on the streets and in the shelters.”

He asked his mom, Melissa Aston-Welberry, how they could do this. After a brief discussion, they settled on donating blankets through the Salvation Army.

Jonty emailed his fourthgrade classmates at Episcopal School of Dallas, and asked if they would like to help. The idea was to collect a large number of blankets and then donate them a few weeks later.

Mother nature had other ideas. Two days after the plan was hatched, snow descended on North Texas, accompanied by near-record cold temperatures.

“He really wanted to do

The following morning, Jonty, his brother Darby, and his sister Milli went to the

Salvation Army and donated 15 blankets. That was only the beginning.

The other fourth-graders continued gathering more and more blankets, and within two weeks they had more than 80.

“I thought we would only get 20 or 30,” Jonty said.

Around 20 children assembled on a Saturday morning to personally deliver blankets to people at the Salvation Army.

Jonty said the recipients were happy and grateful. He recalled a young girl who was thrilled to get her very own princess blanket. The experience made him think about how lucky he has been.

“I have so much and they don’t even have a roof over their head,” Jonty said.

Aston-Welberry described the experience as both heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time.

“They say that homeless people often feel invisible, that no one cares. For them to see that a 10-year-old is thinking about them and does care gives them a little bit of comfort, even though it’s not going to completely change their situation.”

According to ESD Communications Coordinator Emma England, school officials were not even aware of the initiative until it was well underway.

“One of ESD’s founding tenets is service,” England said.

“To see it take hold in the Lower School and start so young is awesome.”

Jonty has been at ESD since first grade. He plays for multiple soccer teams and loves math because “it can take you anywhere in the brain and outside in the world.”

He plans to continue finding ways to, in his words, help “change the world.” He hopes to help run a food drive and clothing drive, as well as volunteer in a soup kitchen.

“The fact that a 10-year-old is thinking about other people and not just himself — that’s what I’m really proud about,” Aston-Welberry said. “Obviously you can’t change everyone’s lives, but it’s kind of a step in the right direction.”

SCOTS ENTER BASEBALL SEASON WITH MANY NEW FACES

By Todd Jorgenson Sports Editor

Highland Park is accustomed to considerable roster turnover.

But even by HP standards, this season’s baseball squad will have a lot of new faces.

Such inexperience on the varsity stage will lead to plenty of question marks as the Scots take the field this spring. In fact, head coach Travis Yoder doesn’t recall a roster with so many newcomers during his time with the program.

Yet he doesn’t necessarily consider that a bad thing.

“Going into the season last year, we had a lot of questions and we answered those,” Yoder said.

“That’s kind of the same situation we’re facing this year.”

Indeed, HP surprised many outsiders when it cruised to a District 10-6A title last year, and pushed eventual state champion Jesuit to three games in a thrilling regional quarterfinal playoff series.

Thanks to graduation, however, William Adair, Kage Forrest, and Grayson Jones are

“ WE ’LL F IN D A WAY TO W IN G A M E S . T H AT ’ S TH E S C OT T IE WAY.” K AG E F O RR E ST the only returnees who saw significant playing time on that squad. Adair will move into the role of ace on the mound in addition to playing shortstop, while Forrest should be the everyday first baseman. Most spots will be up for grabs during scrimmages and early-season tournaments.

“The competition is fierce because there are so many people who want playing time,” Yoder said.

Once again, there will be a heavy dose of talent from the HP football team, which won a state title in December. Among

The Scots aim to clear the playoff hurdle with a new district alignment. the gridiron standouts shifting to the diamond are Michael Clarke, J.D. Beverly, John Hoover, Jackson Dugger, and Babe Walker.

“They’re coming over with a sense of winning. It only can help,” Yoder said. “They bring an aggression from football that we welcome on the baseball field.”

The Scots hope to find the right combination of players to

push them past the third round of the playoffs. They’ve lost in the regional quarterfinals in each of the past four years, which is both a great achievement and a growing burden.

Without a lot of power in the lineup, HP likely will look to be aggressive on the bases, and rely on sharp defense and pitching to win close games.

The Scots will be tested by

C H R I S M C G AT H E Y

a tough nondistrict schedule and a District 15-5A alignment that includes Forney, Mesquite Poteet, and Wylie East.

“Having the success we had last year is a motivator. You don’t need to have a lot of Division I players or returning starters,” Forrest said. “I know we’ll have good pitching, and we’ll find a way to win games. That’s the Scottie way.”

It’s common for the Highland Park football and lacrosse programs to share plenty of athletes. This year, they’d like to share season-ending results, too.

A handful of members of HP’s team that won a Class 5A Division I state title on the gridiron in December will look to duplicate that feat this spring in lacrosse.

Motivation certainly won’t be an issue after the top-ranked Scots were upset by Jesuit in the Texas High School Lacrosse League state championship game last May. It was their only loss to a team in their own state all season.

“I don’t mind that we lost,” said longtime HP head coach Derek Thomson. “I thought we let down our community a little bit in terms of

how we competed. We got punched in the mouth and didn’t respond well.”

HP remains the most decorated program in the state, with seven state titles to its credit. And after finishing 17-2 a year ago, there are plenty of returnees to reload for another run at a crown, even if last year’s finish — the first loss ever in a title game for the Scots — still stings.

“We’ll learn from it,” Thomson said. “We set the bar very high. The kids know what we expect.”

The Scots have consistently been among the top teams in Texas for the past two decades, and have become a valuable recruiting source for top college programs on the East Coast.

So despite the loss of 13 seniors from last season, and five of 10 starters, Thomson said HP’s depth among its incoming junior and senior classes is probably the best he’s had.

The Scots should be especially strong on offense. Among the top players are Owen Seebold, Max Holsomback, and Connor Stone on the attack; Parker Alexander, Paxton Alexander, Jack Kozmetsky, John House, and Kyle Massimilian in the midfield; and Cade Saustad, Chris Walker, and Robert Gilley on defense. Trent Stillman and freshman Doak Walker will compete for the goaltending job.

“I would put our starting 10 against anybody in the state,” Thomson said. “But just because you put on the jersey and the helmet doesn’t mean you’re going to win.”

The schedule includes a trip to Durham, North Carolina, in March to play three games against East Coast powerhouses, and a late-season rematch against Jesuit on April 21. The state tournament will be May 13-14 in Houston.

FAITH PRESBYTERIAN OFFERS TRANQUIL TRANSITIONS

T. Boone Pickens Hospice and Palliative Care Center opens

The park-like setting of the center more resembles a resort than a medical facility.

Maria Adolphs

Special Contributor Caring for a loved one and ensuring their remaining time is comfortable and meaningful can be a challenge for the whole family. The T. Boone Pickens Hospice and Palliative Care Center, which opened Feb. 15, aims to meet that challenge in an innovative and holistic way.

The center is the latest addition to Faith Presbyterian Hospice and Presbyterian Communities and Services, a faithbased, not-for-profit foundation. The care center offers a stand-alone inpatient hospice as an alternative to in-home hospice, nursing facilities, and hospitals. It will also provide transitional care for patients who wish to return home for hospice care.

The 53,388-square-foot center is lo-

cated on a 9.3-acre campus at Merit Drive and Churchill Way in North Dallas. The park-like setting more resembles a resort than a medical facility. Meandering paved paths lead to meditative gardens, seating areas, and an outdoor amphitheater for lectures, events, and memorial services.

The center has 36 suites, which overlook a 5-acre lake and a fountain. Patients’ beds can easily be moved outdoors. In addition to round-the-clock medical care and support, patients have access to massage and music therapy.

Other amenities accommodate the entire family, including sleeping areas, kitchenettes, laundry facilities, playrooms for children and teens, patient and family education, and bereavement support. The center will serve an estimated 1,200 patients and their families each year.

Plans to build the center have been

C O U R T E SY T. B O O N E P I C K E N S H O S P I C E A N D PA L L I AT I V E C A R E C E N T E R

in the works since 2008. The idea came about after former Presbyterian Communities and Services CEO Godwin Dixon experienced a difficult time with his mother’s care. Unable to control symptoms from her brain cancer at home, Dixon searched for hospice care in Dallas.

He found the only options were skilled nursing facilities or hospitals.

T. Boone Pickens, for whom the center is named, provided the lead gift of $18.4 million to get the project started.

The foundation has raised $42 million of the $43 million goal, with help from many donors including the Harold Simmons Foundation and the Hamon Charitable Foundation. Recent donations of more than $2.8 million were received from four Dallas families in January: $1 million from Sammye and Mike Myers, $344,500 from Charlotte Test (in addition to her previous

$2.5 million donation), $1 million from the family of the late Don Hodges, and $500,000 from Margot and Ross Perot.

“Each donor has a unique connection to the center,” foundation spokesman Scott Tims said. “Some have had a personal experience with Faith Presbyterian Hospice, some have been affected by poor end-of-life experiences of a loved one and want to see others have a more positive experience, while others have been longtime supporters as volunteers, donors, or board members.”

Jannetta Lingle, a registered nurse, will serve as director of clinical services. The center has 85 staff members, with plans to add up to 80 employees after the initial ramp-up period. About 80 volunteers will also be available to help patients and families. The hope is eventually to have 150 dedicated volunteers.

CAMP 43 FOCUSES ON LEADERSHIP

By William Taylor

People Newspapers Don’t count on meeting George W. Bush during Camp 43. Don’t count it out either.

The former president puts the free day camp for older teens on his schedule and likes to surprise participants if it works out, Sharon Brannon, education specialist for the George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum, said.

While there’s no guarantee of a presidential encounter, camp participants can count on meeting government and industry leaders, working on leadership skills, and roleplaying top decision makers during a national crisis simulation, she said.

“We want to help create informed citizens who are doing more and may evolve into government officials we can put our trust in,” Brannon said.

Camp 43: Leader of One, Leader of Many was conceived four years ago by the library’s education docents, who lead the program alongside the library’s education staff and with support of the George W. Bush Foundation.

“If you are really serious about leadership — if you are really serious about making an impact, not just in your personal life, but [in] the world — then this is the best camp to come to, because we are going to plant seeds that will grow,” Brannon said.

The first day, with “Leader of One” as the theme, focuses on personal values, principle-based decision making, goal setting, and planning. On day two, themed “Leader of Many,” students explore the challenges of leading others.

Day three, themed “Leader in Action,” involves working together on leadership projects such as an annual reunion of Camp 43 participants.

Along the way, the teens build lasting relationships with each other and with new mentors from business and government, Brannon said.

“ WE WANT TO HE LP C R E ATE I NFOR ME D C IT I ZE NS WHO A RE DOING MOR E AND MAY E VO LVE INTO GOVE R NME NT O FFIC I ALS WE CAN P UT O U R TRUST I N.” S HARON BR ANNON “As they look for internships and references, they are set up for success,” Brannon said.

Woodrow Wilson High School senior Lauren Mora described the camp as a beneficial experience, in feedback she gave the library.

“The guest speakers and their

accomplishments were amazing,” Mora said. “Hearing their real-world advice, and learning about their challenges and how they fought to overcome them, will absolutely help me when I enter the workforce.”

Camp 43 students also participate in the Situation Room Experience, which is not on the public tour.

In 2006, the president ordered a renovation and modernization of the White House Situation Room, and the Main Conference Room and the Secure Video Transmission Site were preserved and reinstalled at the George W. Bush and Ronald Reagan Presidential Libraries.

Both libraries run simulation experiences, allowing students to play the roles of cabinet members, news reporters, and other key leaders as a crisis simulation unfolds in real time.

Bobbi Gruner, public affairs and marketing manager at the Bush library, explained that tablet devices are used in detailing players’ roles and what information they may have.

“You have information that nobody else has,” Gruner said, adding that students must decide how or whether to share what they know.

The June camp is open to teens who will be high school juniors, seniors, or college freshmen in the fall.

Participation is limited to 24 students, chosen from applications that include three short essays and two letters of recommendation.

“We are not really looking for a straight-A student, but someone who has leadership potential that needs to be tapped into,” Brannon said.

The library primarily promotes Camp 43 to students at public, private, and charter schools across North Texas, but with the Internet and social media, word gets out across the country, Brannon said.

Last year, a participant came from Austin; two campers drove in each day from two hours away; and the camp would have had a participant from out of state except for a late cancellation.

“If you can get here and find a place to stay, you are welcome to come to the camp,” she said.

BETH AVERITT

A

faithful servant, loving wife, mother and grandmother, Mrs. Don V. Averitt (Beth) was called home by her Lord on January 27, 2017, due to complications from Alzheimer’s.

Beth, a fourth-generation Texan, was born in Greenville, Texas and reared in East Texas by her parents, Oline and L.F. Raynes, lifelong educators. She grew up in Commerce and communities surrounding her family homestead in East Texas. She graduated Valedictorian of her high school class, and attended East Texas State University, majoring in organ, piano and business. Beth married her high school sweetheart, Don V. Averitt, and moved to Dallas where she began her early career as a legal secretary with Mobil Oil Corporation.

Pausing her career to begin her family in the early 1960’s, she returned to work and developed her love for interior design, working with her husband, a real estate developer, on many commercial office and hotel projects.

She also enjoyed a position with her husband’s alma mater, Southern Methodist University, in the Cox School of Business. Beth continued her love of the Mustangs, during her sons’ educations by being active in the SMU Mother’s Club and Sigma Chi Mother’s Club and continued to don her red and blue at Ole Miss, supporting her daughter’s ADPi sorority chapter. She began attending SMU football games again in the new Ford Stadium and continued her support through one game in the 2016 season.

Beth was always active in support of her family, friends, church and philanthropic interests. She was proud of her association with her bridge club

which she enjoyed without interruption for over 50 years. She solidified lasting friendships with surviving original members, Dot Splawn, Helen Hammer, Wanda Holland, Lucy Bateman, and Carol Chiles. Beth was active in her children’s education, serving as home room mother, promoting musical and athletic programs and serving as president of PTA for all three of her children. She was active in the Methodist Church, first serving as an MYF leader with her husband, then active as a Sunday school teacher and later serving on the Board of the Highland Park United Methodist Church and North Texas Conference of United Methodist Women.

Beth served in leadership roles with many auxiliaries, serving as Treasurer of CPA Wives; President of Dallas Heritage Society and Ball Chairman of the Grand Heritage Ball, benefitting Old City Park; Dallas Southern Memorial Association President during the renovation and restoration of Arlington Hall and Lee Park; President of Les Femmes du Monde, President of the Dallas Theatre Center Guild; President of the Women’s Council of the Dallas Arboretum, during which time she began the planning for A Woman’s Garden; she served on the boards for many years of The Woman’s Board of the Dallas Opera and the Dallas Symphony Orchestra League. She was an active member of Highland Park United Methodist Church, Wesleyan Fellowship Class, the Dallas Woman’s Club, Marianne Scruggs Garden Club, Craig Class, Bent Tree Country Club, and The Park City Club.

She is survived by, her loving husband of 61 years, Don V. Averitt, son Don R. Averitt and wife Barbara, son Mark C. Averitt and wife Kendra and their daughter Greer, and daughter Susan Averitt Duvall and husband Dodd, and three grandchildren, Madelyn, Natalie and Reagan Duvall, all of Dallas, Texas. Family members also include brothers-in-law Michael Averitt, wife R.J. and daughter Angie, Gerald Averitt, wife Mary and sons Brian and Jonathan, and many nieces, nephews, and cousins.

The family received friends on Tuesday, January 31, at Sparkman Hillcrest, 7405 West Northwest Highway. Funeral services were held Wednesday, February 1, at Highland Park United Methodist Church Cox Chapel, 3300 Mockingbird Lane.

Donations may be made to A Women’s Garden at the Dallas Arboretum, 8525 Garland Road, 75218; Dallas Woman’s Club Erin Bain Jones Scholarship, 7100 Park Lane 75225; Center for Brain Health 2200 W. Mockingbird Lane, 75235, or the charity of your choice.

Why didn’t the Dallas Country Club want us to include them in this list, and why did we do it anyway?

The Dallas Country Club requested not to be included in this list or given their award, since they are “a private club and wish to remain that way.” However, since the community voted in overwhelming favor for the club, we defer to the wisdom of our readers.

Besides, we think the DCC would be lucky to get flooded by requests from all of you to join. Disagree?

If you’re waiting with your light-up buzzer for a table at Mi Cocina, it is worth it. This Tex-Mex giant is a must for families looking to enjoy an evening out together. Kids will occupy themselves running around the fountain while mom and dad kick back a margarita (or if you’re really ambitious, a Mambo Taxi). Besides, there are more than a few shops or bars where you can sneak your buzzer in — not to mention Mi Cocina’s own hidden gem, Monkey Bar, where locals retreat to after dinner or to watch the game.

Jay has been around for 40 years, which has something to do with why the community trusts him with their designer dresses and couture gowns.

BEST PUBLIC OFFICIAL JIM HITZELBERGER HPISD Facilites Chair Jim Hitzelberger’s history with Highland Park ISD is much longer than his eight years of service on the board.

Hitzelberger, a 1974 Highland Park High School graduate, now lives right near his old elementary school (Hyer) with his wife Laurie Hitzelberger, principal of Highland Park Middle School/ McCulloch Intermediary School.

The Hitzelbergers attend Highland Park United Methodist Church; Jim has put three sons through Highland Park schools.

As facilities chair, he monitors and reports back to the board on the district’s buildings and the ongoing construction.

“I’m working with a bunch of great people and being involved with a lot of people that have the same ideas, the same commitment to volunteer,” Hitzelberger says. “I’m a big believer in civic responsibility.”

He says the board was working on the bond program for several years before it was voted on; one of the greatest facilities challenges he’s faced has been “the size and the enormity of the change.”

“There are mixed emotions. To tear down Hyer and put up a new Hyer – and I

Park Cities and graduating from Highland Park High School, he is extremely dedicated to honoring the community’s past while positioning our schools for success in the future.”

When Hitzelberger was elected to the board in 2009, he had already been active in the school district, serving on the finance committee, the facilities committee, and the superintendent search focus group. He also served as president of the Highland Park High School Alumni Association from 2004 to 2006.

Before his appointment as facilities chair, he also served as vice president of the board.

“There are hundreds of people who are more deserving of this award. Everyone who has volunteered for this community has done far more than I have,” Hitzelberger insists.

“This is not a one-person show, this is a community full of volunteers and people who are pulling for the same thing. That’s what makes our community unique.”

PLAN YOUR DAY

The Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden was the prize winner, but how could we not gush about all the great ideas our voters wrote in? Here we’ve incorporated some of the best ideas into four fun ways to spend your day out with friends and family.

FLOWERS & FRESH AIR It’s easy to while away a day at the Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden in any season.

Lunch or tea in the historic DeGolyer House will sustain you for traipsing through brilliant blooms, pumpkin patches, or enchanting holiday displays. Head over to White Rock Lake to soak up the sun or jump in the water with a kayak or paddleboard, and hit Highland Park Cafeteria for sweet treats on the way home.

NEIGHBORHOOD NATURE WALK Walking the Katy Trail is as much a social exercise as it is actual exercise; especially when you end up at the Katy Trail Ice House, the perfect spot to cool off with a beer, where you (and your dog) are sure to make friends. If you’ve got the kiddos, Highland Park Soda Fountain is an equally great place to stay cool — and retro — with a famous grilled cheese and oldfashioned float.

ARTS & IDEAS DOWNTOWN Hop on the trolley for a quick ride downtown, where you can get your culture fix in the arts district. Top it off with a food truck lunch or just lounge in the sun at Klyde Warren Park.

LOCAL PARK LARKS Why leave the neighborhood when there are so many places to play, bike, or pass a football on a sunny Sunday? From picnicking in Caruth Park to parading in Goar Park on the 4th of July to feeding the ducks on the banks of Turtle Creek, sometimes the most fun can be had close to home.

LUSCIOUS LAYERS Quinoa, Arugula, and Asparagus Layered Salad

A composed salad makes a stylish light lunch or dinner side dish.

Spring has arrived, and with it, the freshest flavors from local farms and growers. Just-harvested spring greens and tender vegetables now fill produce aisles and farmers markets, providing all the enticement I need in my kitchen to switch from winter’s hearty meals to lighter fare.

As I throw open the windows to savor springtime breezes, I’m inspired to celebrate the beauty of this new season with dear friends. I can hardly wait to set my table with pastel or floral placemats and table linens, sparkling glassware, fresh flowers, and a menu that signals spring is here! For a truly memorable celebration, moving the table outdoors on a gorgeous spring day takes advantage of nature’s spectacle of azaleas in bud and bloom, mid-season tulips, and cheerful pansies under a canopy of trees adorned in pale green leaves.

As I embrace this season of rebirth and renewal, my excitement naturally translates into my menus. I’ve always been a huge fan of composed salads, and this is the ideal time to feature them as a light lunch or dinner side dish. While tossed salads are perfectly delicious any time of year, an artistically arranged salad that thoughtfully showcases each ingredient evokes oohs and ahs from family and guests. That response is all the encouragement I need to create one-ofa-kind salads everyone will enjoy.

Composed salads present opportunities to serve healthy, seasonal ingredients in fresh, new ways. Blanched asparagus, broccoli, and cauliflower florets are extra enticing when artistically presented in a salad — a huge ad-

vantage when it comes to getting kids (and adults) to eat vegetables. Jicama, grated or sliced into matchsticks, provides a crunchy, slightly-sweet counterpoint to spicy arugula or radicchio, and the neutral color highlights adjacent layers of vibrant green and purple. One of my favorite, and under-utilized, salad ingredients is Belgian endive. Whether rose-colored or the more popular white, I like to slice it crosswise and add it to salads for small bursts of tartness. As a bonus, the further I slice into the endive, the more the slices resemble a rose. These can be the perfect garnish on top of a composed salad.

This spring, I’m taking my composed salads to new heights by stacking ingredients to showcase their colors and textures. We’ve all seen layered salads in upscale restaurants, but making them at home? It’s so easy! Starting with a set of 3-inch-high, round tubes or molds from a kitchenware store (I used Creo® Stax, which open with the flip of a lever), chop your favorite ingredients into small pieces so they’re easy to layer. Assemble the salads inside the molds, taking care to alternate colors and textures as you form layer after luscious layer, chill until ready to serve, then carefully remove the molds. It’s art on a plate!

• 2 3-inch-high stacking tubes or molds • 1 cup prepared quinoa • 1 cup arugula, rinsed, spin-dried, and coarsely chopped • 1 cup radicchio, rinsed, spin-dried, and thinly sliced • 1 ripe avocado, halved, pitted, and cut into small cubes • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed orange or lemon juice • 12 red mini-cherub tomatoes, rinsed and thinly sliced lengthwise • 1 cup iceberg lettuce, rinsed and thinly sliced • 8 asparagus spears, rinsed, trimmed, and steamed 1 minute • 4 yellow mini-cherub tomatoes, rinsed and halved lengthwise • Salad dressing of choice • Freshly ground black pepper Prepare the quinoa: • 1 tablespoon olive oil • 2 tablespoons green onion, rinsed and thinly sliced • 2 tablespoons celery, rinsed and diced • 1 cup quinoa, rinsed and drained in a fine sieve • 1 cup vegetable or chicken broth • Pinch of salt Early in the day, preheat a small saucepan over medium heat, add oil, and swirl to coat the bottom of the pan. Add onion and celery, and sauté until they begin to soften. Add broth and salt, bring the mixture to a boil, and stir in the rinsed quinoa. Cover, reduce the heat to medium-low, and simmer 15 minutes or until the liquid has been absorbed.

Fluff the quinoa with a fork and set it aside to cool. Quinoa can be made one day ahead, covered, and chilled overnight.

Place a tube on each salad plate, spoon half of the cooled quinoa in the bottom of each, and tamp it with your fingers to create the base. Add half of the arugula to each, tamp lightly, top each with half of the radicchio, and tamp lightly.

In a small bowl, toss the avocado with orange juice, divide it between the salads, top with sliced red tomatoes and a layer of iceberg lettuce, and tamp lightly.

Garnish the salads with asparagus spears and halved yellow tomatoes. Carefully remove the tubes or molds, drizzle with your favorite salad dressing, and season to taste.

The Camera is Rolling — You’re On!

Tom Barrett Optical

tombarrettoptical.com

STEPHANIE CASEY Hey you, yes you! What’s your show about? What’s the next development?

What I mean to say is — this is it! There is no dress rehearsal for life. What do you want to achieve? How do you want to affect the world around you — from your closest allies to the greater good?

In Zig Ziglar’s book, Over The Top, he writes, “Live like the camera is on and the mic is always rolling.” (For those of you born in the digital era, film and sound tape used to “roll” i.e. spool around reels as it was recording or playing).

This quote inspires me in a few ways, one being — go for it! There won’t be a “next time I’m 25 (or 30 or 50!), I’ll...”

Don’t wait to get healthier or learn to paint or apologize to that friend for, ya know, that thing you shouldn’t have said. Grab the reins and change your life now.

Another message of this quote is to always behave as if others can see and hear you. If you would feel awful if someone read an email or overheard a conversation you didn’t mean them to — just try not to put that stuff out into the world. If you wouldn’t say something to a person’s face, certainly don’t type it as a comment online. If you’d be mortified to watch a video of yourself behaving a certain way, don’t act that way. Look for the good in people and situations. Smile. Engage. Don’t prejudge. Spin your thoughts when you feel them veer the wrong way. In short, chase good.

“But there is so much evil and corruption in the world.” Is there? If you absorb lots of the most popular news, movies, television, and music, I can see why you might be weighed down by that heavy idea. However, most pop media is very unevenly slanted towards gossip, negativity, and violence. This is not the world most of us are lucky enough to live in. The majority of people just want to survive comfortably and hang out with loved ones. There is so much kindness, hilarity, creativity, and support all around us.

“ BE C O N S CIO US O F T H E PE O PL E YO U S PE N D T IME W IT H , T H E ME D IA YO U AB S O RB. ” STEPHA N IE CA S EY

Your camera is on — what is around you, in your immediate space? Start there. If you aren’t the type of person you want to be, begin making changes now. Be conscious of the people you spend time with, the media you absorb, the energies you place yourself in the middle of. We’re made up of what we ingest. What are you feeding your senses and mind? What are you putting out there for others to feed on? How do you want to feel? What do you want to do?

Make it happen — the stage is yours, my friend.

The Brow Awakening “BEAUTY SOMETIMES HURTS, BUT TYPICALLY IF IT DOES, IT’S WORTH IT!” MOLLY N OL AN

In my quest for perfect eyebrows I had a procedure done that is changing the lives of many who have lost brow hair due to age, Alopecia, Trichotillomania, or other reasons.

I feel fortunate to have naturally full eyebrows, but I have still always tried to tame them and fill them in with makeup in places hair was sparse. Age and over-tweezing have thinned them and made them a little unbalanced, so I’m always looking for a way to get back to my natural fullness and shape.

I wanted to try microblading so I could share my experience. While this technique is relatively new in the United States, it has been practiced in Asia for 25 years and in Europe for some time as well. I went to Robin Looper, owner of Highbrows Eye Couture (don’t you love that name?) in Preston Center to get the service, which she calls a “Brow Awakening”.

Microblading, a form of semipermanent makeup applied with a handheld tool made of microneedles, is a very precise technique. First, measurements are made with a special brow ruler to make distinct points so the arch and length are exact on both sides and to your liking. Time is spent making sure the shape compliments your face and preference, and color is

Molly Nolan’s microblading procedure enhanced her brows and defined her face.

M O L LY N O L A N carefully chosen to match your hair.

When applied, the microblade creates hair-like strokes as it deposits pigment.

The effects of this technique last 12 to 18 months, sometimes longer.

Robin did an extremely good job of matching the color to my already unusual hair color; so for that I was ecstatic. But I must say, it hurts like you wouldn’t believe. Thankfully a topical numbing cream is applied prior to the procedure, which helps immensely.

I needed more numbing cream, as I seem to be more sensitive, so for some it may not be as painful. I say this not to scare but to prepare. Beauty sometimes hurts, but typically if it does, it’s worth it!

After the initial session, brows are very heavy and dark, but they fade with time. In four weeks minor adjustments are made during a “perfecting” session, after which your brows are again very dark and heavy, but they calm into beautiful, realistic-looking brows. It’s hard to distinguish between real hairs and microblading.

Now I have even more time in the morning; I don’t have to fill in my brows with a pencil or other makeup and they stay in place without having to use product. They always look perfect. Plus, in the summer or during workouts I won’t have that fear that makeup will disappear with sweat or water, essentially taking my brows with it. While I probably didn’t need this procedure as much as others might, it has truly enhanced my brows and defined my face. I’ve found I don’t need nearly as much eye makeup and I feel like my eyebrows look like they did in my twenties. For those who have issues with their brows, no brows, or a tattooed brow, which unfortunately tends to create an unnatural line of color, this is the holy grail.

I also had a lash lift with Robin, which is basically a perm and tint for your lashes. The procedure makes lashes go up rather than going out, creating an instant eye lift! I have been able to wear less mascara, which has been awesome, and my lashes look longer and make my eyes look open and bright. If you normally rely on lash extensions or fake lashes, I certainly recommend a lash lift for a naturally beautiful lash. It lasts about 6-8 weeks.

Need a great mascara? Try L’Oreal’s Voluminous Feline. Don’t get noticed for bad brows and lashes, get noticed for gorgeous brows and amazing lashes!

Starting Strong in 2017

Business is booming for Allie Beth Allman & Associates.

The firm ended 2016 with over $1.6 billion in production, including the two largest residential sales in both Dallas and Texas history with Walnut Place and the Crow Estate. In 2016, Allie Beth Allman & Associates also joined two esteemed invitation-only organizations, Leading Real Estate Companies of the World and Luxury Portfolio. These organizations connect buyers and sellers throughout the world, with 128,000 sales associates in over 55 counties.

The DFW metro area and especially Dallas ended the year with the most single-family homes ever sold, over 100,000, a record. Premier residential broker Allie Beth Allman & Associates is not surprised.

“We are positioned smack dab in the middle of growth - people growth and job growth”, said Ms. Allman, one of Dallas’ best known entrepreneurs. She cited data showing Texas having the nation’s largest population jump in 2016 and DFW as the second-fastest growing metro area in the U.S. Already in 2017, the firm has 400+ listings totaling over $1 billion in volume. 250+ of those are over $1 million in price. A majority of these listings are in the firm’s key market areas, including the 118 active listings in the Park Cities and 52 in Preston Hollow. Other key market areas include Turtle Creek, Downtown and East Dallas.

What was once considered real estate wisdom – the ideal time to list your home for sale is the traditional spring selling season – is no longer true for North Texas homeowners.

“Year-over-year home sales for January and the current low inventory of homes available to purchase indicate there is no reason to wait until spring to list your home for sale,” says Mary Frances Burleson, president and CEO of Ebby Halliday Realtors. “The latest numbers from North Texas Real Estate Information Systems offer a compelling case for sellers who would like to get a head start on the competition.”

A few of the highlights from the NTREIS numbers for January 2017 vs. January 2016:

• The average sales price for a North Texas home rose 12 percent.

• The number of homes for sale was down 1.4 percent.

• Finally, the average time a home was on the market was down 7.7 percent to 48 days.
