Nine candidates from various industries and backgrounds are participating in the 10-week national campaign, which kicked off on Thursday, March 26, to raise funds and awareness for LLS and the fight against blood cancer. Since its inception in 1990, this event has gained an incredible amount of recognition in 39 U.S. states plus Puerto Rico. Each candidate is nominated by someone in his or her community and competes in honor of children who are local blood cancer survivors. "Throughout the 10 weeks of fund-raising, each candidate will host events and motivate their networks to raise money for blood cancer research," says Patricia Thomson, executive director of the North Texas chapter. Every dollar raised counts as a vote, and at the end of the fund-raising circuit, two contestants will be crowned the local Man & Woman of the Year Saturday, May 30, and go on to compete for national honors. This year's crop of friendly competitors include Dr. Larry Anderson, Stuart Boslow, Mia Caldwell, Kim Carter, Gina Cook, Keith Pearson, Erin Ragsdale, Imran Sheikh, and Saadia Sheikh. May the best man (and woman) win. Information, 972.996.5932, mwoy.org/ntx.

Linden Wilson D avid Yurman and his son Evan have spent years hunting down rare, one-of-a-kind stones at gem and mineral shows and excavations in far-flung corners of the globe for their signature twisted-cable jewelry. They've reserved the most prized and beautiful specimens for their private collections — until now. The Collector's Series' 22 limited-edition rings are set with the Yurmans' own stash of gems, each signed and numbered, including peach moonstone, purple sugilite and even meteorites. In the beginning. Over the last five years, Evan and I have been collecting unusual and unique gemstones from all over the world. Most of the stones we collect are simply due to the beauty of the stone — we don't necessarily have a design in mind. This particular collection was a perfect opportunity to showcase many of our favorite stones in our COLLECTED WORKS most iconic design — Albion. In a way, I feel like many of these stones were just waiting for this opportunity. A favorite? It's hard to choose, but one of the pieces I'm most proud of is our meteorite Albion surrounded by gray diamonds. The materials are so extraordinary, and the darkened setting creates a dynamic and mysterious look. More collaborations with Evan? Our design process is always about collaboration. In fact, we're working on a collection that will debut this fall that also utilizes unique gemstones in truly innovative settings. Albion from $1,450, at the David Yurman boutique, davidyurman.com. Rebecca Sherman NEW LOOK TRULUCK'S Truluck's, 2401 McKinney Ave., 214.220.2401, trulucks.com Truluck's vintage diner opened in 1998 in the old Fog City Diner space, its neon green sign glowing from McKinney Avenue. That structure has been replaced now with an elegant new two-story building, rising in the former parking lot of the original Fog City restaurant. On the ground level, the 90-seat Stone Crab Lounge glows with an onyx-illuminated bar, where in a charming nod to dark- paneled restaurants and supper clubs, there is live piano music nightly. Upstairs, the restaurant offers an impressive view of downtown Dallas, with vestiges of its previous '40s-style chophouse persona. Architect Frank King worked with Truluck's founder Stewart Sargent to ensure that even the cafe-style booths from Truluck's original Fog City Diner were brought over to the new restaurant, as well as light fixtures and sheets of onyx from the foyer. Being eco-friendly is important to the Houston-based owners, in both design and menu offerings. For instance, Truluck's famed Florida stone crabs are raised in their own fishery, on the Isle of Capri, just outside Naples, Florida. Less than 24 hours after the traps are harvested, fresh crab claws arrive at the table. The claws are never frozen, which means the medium (2 to 3 ounce), large (3 to 5 ounce) and jumbo (5 to 8 ounce) claws are only available in season, October through May. Only one claw is removed at a time, then the crab is returned to its ocean habitat, where it grows a new one, making this delicacy renewable, sustainable protein. Executive chef Manny Vera has been with the company since its Dallas opening, and chooses only fish that aren't overfished or on the red category list of the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC). Take the MSC-certified South Georgia Chilean seabass roasted with a miso glaze. The delicate, flaky white fish is served with crab-fried rice and a refreshing cucumber cilantro slaw. Another remarkable dish is the Cioppino: The fragrant tomato broth filled with mussels, tender shrimp, calamari, crab and fresh fish is topped with Parmesan crostini and perfectly sized for two. While seafood is the main course here, Truluck's also offers grass- fed beef, from tender filets to New York strip.
