| | | | | Dallas Extends Marriage Benefits to LGBTQ Employees A spouse is a spouse, regardless of genitalia, as far as Dallas' city code is concerned now. The City Council voted Wednesday morning to change its definition of spouse, clearing the way for same-sex spouses of civilian city employees to receive survivor pension benefits. more >> | | | | | | Thin Line Fest Might Be Denton's Best Music Festival by Matt Wood  It's still early going but already 2015 is shaping up to be a fascinating year for music festivals in North Texas. Much has changed in the past couple years, thanks in no small part to the recent hiatus of 35 Denton, which had led the way for local fests for several years. 35 Denton is set to return next month, but in its absence events like Oaktopia have continued to grow and flourish. And now there's a new dark horse in the running. more >> | | | Buffalo Black Made a Fan of Spike Lee Through Da Sweet Blood of Jesus Last spring, Dallas rapper Buffalo Black was scrolling Instagram on his phone when a post caught his eye. It was from noted director Spike Lee. He needed independent artists for his next film, Da Sweet Blood of Jesus, which was being financed through Kickstarter.

Simply put, she's grand, and her scenes and songs -- which constitute most of the film -- are worth treasuring. more >> | | | Five Reasons Why Fox's Empire Has Become a Breakout Hit Empire most certainly wasn't built in a day, but its reputation as a breakout hit has been made in virtually no time at all. Since the series debuted six weeks ago, every episode has drawn more viewers than the one before it.
