Texas Instruments said it won't pay a severance to former CEO Brian Crutcher, who resigned suddenly last week after violating the company's code of conduct. (David Woo/The Dallas Morning News) feaTured columnist: Mitch Schnurman TI’s CEO cashed out before he was forced out, but the spigot is turned off now Rich Templeton, the Texas Instruments chairman who returned to the company to again take the helm as president and CEO, said Crutcher's violations clashed with TI's ethics and core values. That may explain why Crutcher will not get a severance package. [TI executives who resign are typically offered a 12-month paid leave of absence in exchange for a noncompete, nonsolicitation agreement and a release of claims against the company](, the proxy said. During that one-year leave, the executive’s stock options continue to become exercisable and the restricted stock grants continue to vest. In Crutcher’s case, those awards represented a major windfall. Over 300,000 options would have been exercisable in January and nearly 51,000 shares would have vested that month. Together, they were worth over $20 million.

(Vernon Bryant / Staff Photographer) architecture critic: Mark Lamster With The Star in Frisco, the Dallas Cowboys build a football Oz In Frisco, Jerry Jones has built the Cowboys a genuine capital, a shimmering football Oz that emerges like a spectral vision from the blank canvas of North Texas nothingness. It is a miniature city, a 91-acre branded corporate headquarters and entertainment complex dedicated to football, consumption and — above all — profit. As at the team's AT&T Stadium in Arlington — a.k.a. Jerry World — the architectural language of The Star is unapologetically modern. It is a city of reflective surfaces, of glass and metal and white concrete that dazzles in the sun, and it is blessedly free of the kitschy, nostalgic elements common to sports design. "We talk about the past but we build for the future," a team representative told me. [This is not the warm, regionally inspired Texas modernism of reimagined vernacular forms and local materials](.
