News >> National News | Blogs Dallas Fudges Numbers to Put HUD Money in Favored Pockets by Jim Schutze From this rag and that bit of bone, a picture emerges of what Dallas has really been doing with hundreds of millions of dollars in federal housing money all these years. It's not a portrait of theft or castles in Spain, but it's not a pretty picture. more >> New York Times Can't Help Itself, Strains to Tie Oak Cliff Rejuvenation to JFK Murder We get the impulse. The easiest way to dive into a story about Oak Cliff, especially if you've never spent more than a few days there, is to talk about November 1963. Failing that, you can talk about crime, making it seem as if people who cross the Trinity heading south are taking their lives into their hands. more >> Music >> Top Picks Baring Teeth Elevate Local Metal to New Heights by Jezy J. Gray What if I told you that the most sonically adventurous outfit in DFW music is a death metal band? If you've ever caught a live performance from Baring Teeth, you wouldn't be surprised. more >> 10 Amazing Musical Performances from The Jon Stewart Show Back before he was the host of The Daily Show -- back even before Josh Hartnett chopped off his fingers and stabbed him in the eye in The Faculty -- Jon Stewart was the host of his own eponymous show. It aired for almost two years, first in a half-hour version on MTV, and then an hour-long version in syndication. more >> Restaurants >> San Salvaje Serves up Dinner and a Show by Scott Reitz I've been served whole fish at plenty of restaurants, but I've never had one land on my table like the red snapper that greeted me at San Salvaje recently. Picture a sizable fish cut from belly to back with the head and tail still attached. more >> The Dallas Farmers Market's Extreme Makeover Is Almost Complete Foodies in Dallas have long lamented the problems of the Dallas Farmers Market. A lack of consistent local vendors and general disinterest from the city of Dallas resulted in a lackluster farmer's market that did not accurately represent the bounty produced by local farmers. In many cases, it just wasn't profitable for farmers to make the trip to Downtown. more >> Movies >> Showtimes Brendan Gleeson Shines as an Irish Priest in Crisis in Calvary by Amy Nicholson In Calvary, Brendan Gleeson plays a Catholic priest who plods through a rustic Irish village that's more brutal than beautiful. The beach is gray, the waves are choppy and the wind whips his cassock as though every step were a fight against nature. more >> Culinary Mash-Up The Hundred Foot Journey Is Tasty Enough Lasse Hallström has become an expert at making mom-jeans movies, nonthreatening pictures in which headstrong women find love just when they think it's too late (Once Around), take the upper hand with their cheating husbands (Something to Talk About) and turn small, French villages topsy-turvy by opening chocolate shops (Chocolat). But the tragedy and the glory of mom jeans is that they're kind of comfy, at least when they're well engineered. more >> Arts >> Five Best Affordable Women's Clothing Boutiques in Dallas by Lauren Smart A well-run boutique needs a welcoming atmosphere, trendy clothes, and pristine changing rooms. Oh, and booze. more >> Dogfight's Sweetness, Energy and Vocals Lift it Above the Cliche At WaterTower Theatre, time shifts to 1964 in San Francisco.
