OXFORD, Ohio - A hot-shooting Youngstown State team pulled away in the second half to defeat Miami, 76-56, Sunday afternoon and end the RedHawks' three-game winning streak. Courtney Osborn led the team with 15 points. Miami falls to 3-2 on the season, while the Penguins improve to 4-0.
Tied at 25 after the RedHawks held YSU to 34.5 percent shooting (10-for-29) in the first half, the Penguins would shoot a blistering 63.6 percent (14-for-22), en route to scoring 51 points in the second half to come away with the victory.
Youngstown State opened an 8-2 lead to begin the contest. The RedHawks struggled to get their offense moving as they managed only eight points over the first 13 minutes. The Penguins built the advantage to 17-8 during that time. Osborn would get Miami going when she hit a three-pointer at the 6:44 mark. After YSU answered with a layup to make it 19-11, the 'Hawks would keep the Penguins scoreless over the next five minutes as they went on a 12-0 run to take a 23-19 lead. During the run Osborn had an old-fashioned three-point play, while Kirsten Olowinski and Jessica Rupright each put in layups. Youngstown State responded with a 6-0 run of its own to take the advantage back at 25-23, but Kelsey Simon closed the first half with a pair of free throws to send the game into the break tied at 25.
After a free throw from the Penguins began the second half, Osborn buried another three-pointer to put the RedHawks up 28-26 with 18:55 remaining in the game. Youngstown State would answer with a 19-6 run that gave it control at 45-34 at the 13:59 mark. The Penguins pushed the advantage to 52-39 before a layup from Rupright and a three-pointer from Osborn made it 52-44 with 9:23 to go. That would be as close as Miami could get as a 15-7 run put the game out of reach at 67-51 at the 4:05 mark. YSU hit several free throws down the stretch to finish off the 76-56 victory.
Miami finished the game with a 37.7 percent (20-for-53) shooting percentage. Youngstown State outrebounded the RedHawks, 40-27, and got a lot of its points from the line, finishing 20-for-27 (74.1 percent).
Osborn added four rebounds, four assists, four steals and a block to her 15 points. Olowinski finished with nine points, while Simon and Rupright each had eight.
Miami will hit the road for its next game as it travels to ninth-ranked Kentucky on Wednesday. The game will have a special start time of 11 a.m. due to an elementary school promotion the Wildcats are running. Tim Bray will have the call and an audio broadcast can be heard on Miami All-Access for those who have a subscription.

RALEIGH – Elon University's baseball team couldn't stand a little good fortune, giving away too much to North Carolina State.
The Wolfpack was there to take advantage Wednesday night, winning 8-6 at Doak Field.
"We played bad at the wrong time," second baseman / outfielder Sebastian Gomez said. "You can't give tams like N.C. State free bases. We didn't make plays we should have made. They helped us (earlier) and we didn't capitalize."
The Wolfpack (21-10) plated a pair of unearned runs in the bottom of the seventh to snap a 6-6 tie.
Elon (18-12) had a four-game winning streak end. The Phoenix did good work at times because it was only the third time that N.C. State gave up more than five runs and won this season.
But N.C. State, which has won five of its last six games, benefited from three Elon errors and five walks.
"That's a Top 25 team," Elon coach Mike Kennedy said. "You can't give them that many chances. … These are the innings, we preach to them, that we have to stay away from.
"I didn't think we played bad. But we played bad at the wrong times."
Jake Armstrong's infield single off reliever Andrew MacDonald's glove drove in the go-head run after Wolfpack batters reached on a pair of walks and an outfield error. Bryan Adametz followed with a sacrifice fly.
"That could be a double-play ball," Kennedy said of Armstrong's chopper. "We didn't glove it."
Elon's four-run seventh tied the game at 6-6, with the last three runs crossing the plate without the benefit of a hit after Quinn Bower's RBI double followed Chris King's lead-off double. Ryan Kinsella's fielder's choice grounder produced the tying run.
The Wolfpack made amends for last month's 24-12 loss at Elon.
"We were hungry," Armstrong said. "We didn't want another game like that. … It's always better when they give you free runs."
Grant Sasser (2-0) was the winning pitcher on relief. He struck out six of the 10 batters he faced in 2 2/3 innings.
The Wolfpack scored two of its four sixth-inning runs before Elon starter Jacob Baker recorded an out. An error, a single and a wild pitch set the stage for Armstrong's two-run single.
Grant Clyde drove in two more runs with a single off Elon reliever Jordan Darnell (0-1), who gave up a lead-off walk in the next inning before he was replaced.
Elon took a 2-0 lead in the top of the first, but the Phoenix lost outfielder Niko Fraser to another leg injury as he was beating out an infield single. Alex Swim's sacrifice fly and Gomez's two-out single drove in runs.

Hot off their show in Atlanta, Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers rolled into Nashville's Bridgestone Arena on Thursday night, giving Music City a heavy dose of the good ol' rock 'n roll.
Rock legend goes that David Crosby, Stephen Stills and Graham Nash discovered their unique vocal blend at a party at Cass Elliot's house in Laurel Canyon in July 1968 when Nash asked Stills and Crosby to sing a new song by Stills, "You Don't Have To Cry," with Nash improvising a second harmony. Forty-two years after that special day in the summer of '68, the legendary Rock & Roll Hall of Fame trio still creates that magic on stage. Opening with an electric "Woodstock," CSN bounded straightaway into "Military Madness" before slowing it down a bit for Crosby's funky "Long Time Gone." Neil Young's "Long May You Run" began the group's medley of covers, which included an arena-sized sing-a-long of the Rolling Stones' "Ruby Tuesday." Perhaps the highlight of the night was Nash and Crosby's transcendent reading of "Guinevere," but the double-encore of "Love the One You're With" and "Teach Your Children" wasn't too shabby either.
"How about that Crosby, Stills and Nash?" Tom asked as the band took the stage, the capacity crowd howling their approval. "Kings Highway" returned to the set on Thursday night while the one-two punch of "Running Man's Bible" and "I Should Have Known It" continues to be a deadly Mojo combination. And the anthemic "Don't Come Around Here No More" absolutely rocked Bridgestone Arena, which no doubt pleased producer Dave Stewart standing sidestage, a black hat and dark sunglasses barely disguising his wide grin.
On to Buffalo! Don't forget to check back often for more recaps, photos and videos!

Good morning, the sun is rising over the new world and today wearing the body shop Dreams Unlimited. Chile peppers, mmm. Me gustan pimientos. generally speaking, I'll throw a jalapeno into d*mn near anything, and throwing one into this perfume really does make it work for me.
Hi gang, missed you over the weekend! Congrats to Larimar on 4000 insightful, fun, intelligent and hilarious posts! And I missed congratulating Twolf last week on her huge posting milestone, what with all the site flakiness. You both do much to make this the wonderful place it is!

Science is not only compatible with spirituality, it is a profound source of spirituality. When we recognize our place in an immensity of light-years and in the passage of ages, when we grasp the intricacy, beauty, and subtlety of life, then that soaring feeling, that sense of elation and humility combined, is surely spiritual. ..Carl Sagan
A solitary snowflake for Jon. We, too, like iodine and jujy, have our should-be snow turning into rain.
While we did have some new white stuff on the ground yesterday evening, I went out and fetched the cold ingredient for a Scotch & Snow.
Plaisir, I almost applied a sample of Gardénia Pétale this morning because florals sweep me off my feet, but having read another thread's posts by Larimar and Hedonist, instead sprayed on En Avion extrait. It's outside my normal comfort zone, but my comfort zone has relaxed and expanded with the ever-lessening of life's stresses. I can't tell you, fragrant friends, how wonderful it is to arrive at a stage where it doesn't feel like life is demanding more of me than I'm prepared to give, that I have sufficient creative outlets to permit the mind to frolic, that I have purpose to my activities and little fear of unpleasant surprises. A spicier scent like En Avion can be observed for its artistry, even as its heat burns a little in my child-like nasal receptors.
Wishing all a low-stress week.

I was almost scent twins with you this morning, Evangeline, but I went with Coco edp instead, finishing up an old decant. This was never my style, and I didn't wear it back in the day, but it is such a beautiful fragrance I can't stop sniffing myself this morning. I always, when smelling this, hear ivory and cinnabar bangles sliding together on an arm, hear dice clicking together in a cup being shaken. For some reason its resiny quality evokes aural imagery.
Quarry, I'm glad things are in balance and that you are at peace. Very glad. xo
It's a hot and sunny beautiful day here, wind is blowing with a slight stiffness to the air - absolutely glorious. I was in a sh*tty mood yesterday (thus my absence) but things turned around I am greeting the day with positive thoughts, gratitude and hope. See how things turn around, sometimes?
I rarely wear this to work, but today I needed a little 'comfort' to go along with me throughout the day...and this stuff works like a charm:
Shalimar vintage Eau de Cologne layered with vintage Extrait/Parfum + Body Cream + Body Powder + Habit Rouge deodorant
I smell friggin gorgeous, my friends...GOR-GEOUS!
Lilybelle - nice to see you posting more regularly now, you were missed ((hugs))
Momma Quarry - a glass has been raised to your 'comfort zone' ((hugs))
Larimar - here's to 4,000 more posts! ((hugs))
Anyone need any hugs?

Good morning!
We've warmed up finally, it's 27F and snowing, I'm hoping we've seen the last of the sub zero temps.
Congratulations, Larimar, on your posting milestone, I always enjoy reading your posts!
Happy (late) Anniversary to the Quarry's, I hope you had a lovely day.
Wearing Pierre Balmain Jolie Madame this morning.
Wishing everyone a great day.
Thank you for the hug, Mike, and a big (((hug))) back. And you DO smell friggin' GORGEOUS!!
It's snowing here but it's not supposed to amount to much more than a messy PM commute.
I transferred the contents of my Enchanted Forest sample to an atomizer and sprayed it solely over clothing (I had previously decided I liked it more on paper than on skin.) Oh, no-- no way! The musk and amber combined with the blackcurrant in a way that didn't work at all for me. Off came the clothes and down the laundry chute right away. Hubby can try the sample next.
And now I'm in L'Artisan Fleur d'Oranger and considerably happier.
About my fragrance, anyway. I see clicking on "New Posts" is bringing up the Database Error notice.

Mike, you do smell gor-geous! I'll take a hug just for that!
Quarry, I'm very happy for you! Wonderful.
Larimar, congratulations!!! Keep 'em coming...
lilybelle, love your aural imagery of Coco edp.
Goodness, it's so very good to see everyone. I really need to try to be here more often.
Still scentless and off to work out soon, but have already chosen Chanel Bois des Isles for this afternoon.
I'm testing Naomi Goodsir Cuir Velours today. This started out wonderfully; a very rich, velvety leather with just tiny hints of the immortelle and tobacco peeking through. But, it has suddenly turned waaay powder-y. Not that I have anything against powder-y ... it's just not working for me too well.
Notes: leather, tobacco, rum, cistus labdanum, incense, immortelle
Happy Monday everyone!
I've trademarked the color bleu
SOTE is L'artisan mimosa pour moi. It's being discontinued but I have enough for my needs.
Quarry - Being able to enjoy the fruits of your labor is a wonderful place to be. So funny instead of taking time to smell the roses, you're taking time to smell your wrist...
Whitefluffy - That picture is stunning - it's like medicine. About this time of the year, when I haven't seen green for a while, that is the thing I start craving. Do you know where it was taken?
Speaking of medicinals - I could still smell the Black Musk from yesterday when I woke up this morning.
Weather is back to normal here also - 6 below F, but it's supposed to warm up again in a few days The warm-ups that hammer Southcentral AK from time to time in winter are called the Pineapple Express because they come straight up from Hawaii, bringing warm, moist air. On the satellite view it looks like a long white pipeline headed straight for us.
Seeing my fragrance-aholic dentist today. I hope he's wearing his Aramis. I'm going to surprise him and wear an oud, probably Creed's Royal Oud, a fairly mannered one. He's only been exposed to the perfume counter at Nordstrom's and Penney's.
Doing a happy dance!
Wearing my new Rive Gauche vintage parfum. The bottle was still sealed with the little plastic plug.
Oh, it smells so good!
Congratulations on the posting milestones to Twolf and Larimar!
And a belated Happy Anniversary to Quarry and Mr. Q
I tried all weekend to get on and was thwarted every darn time. GAH!
Today looks more like the Pacific Northwest (gray, damp, and foggy but not too cold) than the Great Plains in January. I don't have much to complain about, though, given the rather nice temperatures, but it would be nice to get actual *rain* instead of mist. Sigh.
I'm enjoying the comfort of Ava Luxe No. 23. I found myself wanting some florals with my sandalwood this morning.
Good evening!
lt has indeed turned wet & very windy again here today. This weather puts me in the mood for something dark & witchy, & so my SOTE is vintage Magie Noire. Mwahhahahahaaaaa!

Hey y'all -
I'm now in Annick Goutal's Grand Amour, which has a pollen-y accord that reminds me very much of Chamade, and I believe the hyacinth is responsible for that ...no doubt about it, I'm so ready for spring.

DId not sleep at home last night -- too slippery to walk and stay for some miserable 7 hours and then come back -- have not taken a bath and wore yesterday's clothes. Oh well.... Came home finally and am enjoying the quiet.
JR, sort of creepy is your therapeutical -- if I see big green bugs like this, I might shriek.
Wore YSL's Yvresse today. Can still smell it, lovely. Glad to have Monday over with.

Let's start with some caveats. Principally: How strong the live stream will be from both Coachella weekends (available on the official site) depends on your equipment as much as the technical competence of festival organizers. Their crews already battle the elements to bring the action home. Don't battle back by having a lousy Internet connection and a shoddy laptop.
Also keep in mind that not everything will air, perhaps including some of these choices. Several top-tier names are apt to deny access.
And don't expect much – or anything – out of the Sahara dance tent. Apparently little was shown from there last year, so we aren't recommending many EDM stars.
Roughly 20 turns get broadcast each day. No telling which ones they will be, but if I were stuck home resting my feet, sipping tea with the A/C cranked, here's who I'd hope to see.
YYYs vocalist Karen O at Sydney's Big Day Out festival in January. Photo: Mark Metcalfe, Getty Images
Yeah Yeah Yeahs: Their fourth album, Mosquito, arrives between the fests, so expect a sizable handful of new bits. But there's also wildly colorful fashion to accompany the NYC trio's updated sound, and vocalist Karen O is among the most compulsively watchable figures of the past 10 years. Their hits should wow.
Blur: Only ardent Anglophiles and Brits waking up in the U.K. will care about the Stone Roses. But Blur's equally rare appearance should make for compelling viewing. The proper lineup, fronted by Damon Albarn (better known here via Gorillaz) hasn't played California since 1999; guitarist Graham Coxon had left when a mellower version played Indio in 2003. Never heard more than the woo-hoo of "Song 2"? This set should convince you of what fans have known for years: They always were better than Oasis.
Grinderman: Nick Cave's generous four appearances across both weekends are musts, but his Bad Seeds sets each Sunday may prove challenging to the uninitiated, depending on how much they pull from their tame new disc, Push the Sky Away. This snarling, darkly sexual side project with most of that band is how the Bad Seeds used to be: raw, unfiltered, riveting.
How to Destroy Angels: A question mark we'll know more about after Wednesday's preview in Pomona. Supposedly they come with full-scale spectacle, but will Trent Reznor permit the filming of his new outfit, including wife Mariqueen Maandig and frequent co-composer Atticus Ross? If so, will their atmospherics, demanding on record, have any impact online?
The Shouting Matches: Justin Vernon fuzzing and stomping it up, Black Keys-style, the exact opposite of the falsetto mood-rock he creates as Bon Iver. The best-kept secret of Coachella 2013.

Aluko's Career High in Blocks Leads Men's Basketball to Road Win
November 19, 2013
CONCORD, N.C. - Behind sophomore center Silvere Aluko's career-high seven blocked shots and sophomore forward David McNair's career-high fourteen rebounds, the Pfeiffer men's basketball team (2-2) defeated Barber Scotia College (0-1) Tuesday night.
"You have to take your hats off to Barber Scotia they made tough plays all night ," Pfeiffer coach Jeremy Currier said. "This was a great road win for us. I was really pleased with how we finished the game."
Freshmen guard Mike Smith led all scorers with 27 points on 10-15 shooting and recorded eight rebounds and six steals on the night. AJ Clark added 19 points and dished out a game-high seven assists. Armin Omanovic contributed eight points, four rebounds and two steals in 15 minutes of action and sophomore forward Joe Ledbetter added six points and ten rebounds on the night.
Pfeiffer dominated the rebounding battle with their 51 boards to Barber Scotia's 28. The Falcons had 21 offensive rebounds on the evening, highlighted by seven from Ledbetter.
"Our coaching staff has challenged the team to be relentless on the glass," said Currier. "For our players to respond with our best rebounding effort on the road is promising. David McNair and Joe Ledbetter made winning plays on the boards tonight. In both of our wins this season, David has had 10 or more rebounds."
Barber Scotia was led by Keyvon Jones 16 points and Carlos Benton's 14 points. Barber Scotia shot 43 percent from the field and 50 percent from the three point line. The Sabres cut the lead to six points with 8:45 in the second half, but was plagued by 16 turnovers that allowed the Falcons to pull away.
Pfeiffer returns to action in Merner Gymnasium on Monday November 25 against Bluefield State College at 7:30pm.

What is Happening in Indonesia?
Indonesia is often in the news these days. Unfortunately, it is largely to report on negative developments: the violence in East Timor, separatist movements in Aceh and Irian Jaya, and demonstrations and bombings in Takarta. Such events are very much part of daily life in Indonesia today. But they also reflect a more fundamental shift that is taking place in Indonesian society, from an authoritarian Jakarta-based regime to a more open and decentralized democracy. For most Indonesians, there is no turning back. But it will also take time to build the institutions needed to support a more just and fair society. How far has Indonesia come?
And what lies ahead for the country with the fourth largest population in the world? Mark Baird, the World Bank's Country Director in Jakarta, will share with us his views on the current challenges facing Indonesia. He is well placed to do so, having closely followed events in Indonesia since 1984 and having lived in Jakarta during 1986-89 and again since 1999. As well as managing the World Bank program and advising the government of Indonesia, Baird is a frequent speaker and writer on economic developments in Indonesia.
Baird, a New Zealand citizen, graduated from the University of Canterbury with an M.A. (Hons) in Economics. During a 26-year career with the World Bank, he has worked as a country economist on India, Tanzania, Uganda, and Indonesia. Prior to his current assignment, Baird was Vice President of Strategy and Resource Management for the World Bank in Washington DC. He has also worked for the New Zealand Treasury, most recently as Economic Adviser from 1989-91. Mark Baird is also the father of CMC students Sarah '01 and Katie '04, and is the first speaker in the Athenaeum series featuring parents of CMC seniors.
The West Chooses Quantification
In The Measure of Reality, Alfred Crosby writes that Europeans of the late Middle Ages and Renaissance were ".... not the crudest and not the kindest imperialists, not the earliest and not the latest. They were unique in the degree of their success. They may retain that distinction forever, because it is unlikely that one division of the world's inhabitants will ever again enjoy such extreme advantages over all the rest." Crosby attributes those advantages in no small degree to the emergence of "a new model of reality" and a "utilization of habits of thought that would in time enable [Europeans] to advance swiftly in science and technology and, in the meantime, gave them decisively important administrative, commercial, navigational, industrial, and military skills."
In his Athenaeum lecture, the second of four in the Gould Center-sponsored series "How the West Grew Rich," Professor Crosby will discuss the epochal shift from the ancient qualitative mode to the modern quantitative one, and how that new mentalite made possible not only some extraordinaly scientific and technological advances, but also the bureaucracies and business practices by which the West learned to create, marshal, and manage its wealth.
Alfred Crosby, an internationally recognized specialist in the study of comparative cultures, is the author of many books and articles on a broad range of topics. For his Epidemic and Peace, 1918 (1976) he was awarded the Medical Writers' Association Award for Best Book on a Medical Subject for Laymen; his Ecological Imperialism: The Biological Expansion of Europe, 900-1900 (1986) brought him the Ralph Waldo Emerson Prize of the Phi Beta Kappa Society. Those and other of his books, which include The Columbian Exchange: Biological and Cultural Consequence of 1492 (1973) and The Measure of Reality: Quantification in Western Europe, 1250-1600 (1997), have been translated into as many as twelve languages. Crosby is Emeritus Professor of History and American Studies at Washington State University and the University of Texas.
Reading From His Poetry
Robert Pinsky, three-time Poet Laureate of the United States (1997-2000) and winner of a Pulitzer Prize believes that poetry is more alive in American culture than most Americans are willing to believe. "Oddly," he says, "poetry is probably more to the center of culture and more to the fringe of university English departments."
In order to discover how Americans feel about poetry and the poets who write it, Pinsky founded the Favorite Poem Project. The purpose of the Project is to create a video archive of ordinary- and above all, non-poet- Americans reading selections from their favorite poems. Much to Pinsky's surprise and delight, the Project has received over 12,000 entries since its inception in 1997.
Pinsky's books of poetry include An Explanation of America (1980), History of My Heart (1984), his Pulitzer Prize-winning work, The Figured Wheel: New and Collected Poems 1966-1996 (1996), and his latest collection, Jersey Rain (2000). His critical works, Poetry and the World (1988) and The Situation of Poetry (1978), have helped define the traditions and complexities of modern poetry.
Pinsky's translation of Dante's Inferno, The Inferno of Dante: A New Verse Translation (1996), has been hailed by critics as one of the most powerful modern verse translations in print and appeared on the bestseller lists of the Boston Globe and New York Newsday. Pinsky has also collaborated with Czeslaw Milosz in the translation of some of the 1980 Nobel Laureate's most important poems.
A former Stegner Fellow at Stanford University, Pinsky has taught at Berkeley, Wellesley, and now at Boston University. He is also a regular guest commentator on The Newshour with Jim Lehrer. He is the editor of the literary magazine Slate and is currently at work editing the Norton Anthology of Twentieth Century American Poetry.
Please join us to hear one of America's most important literary voices.
Podlich Distinguished Fellow
Deconstructing Darwin
David Hull is one of the leading philosophers of science of our time and the founder of the contemporary philosophy of biology. His philosophical insights into evolutionary theory have led him to the bold view that the principles of biology also apply to developments in history and to the history of science in particular. While studying the cultural history of science, Hull has argued convincingly against views that science and its findings are mere social constructions. Nevertheless, he has shown the ways that science itself can and should be studied scientifically, avoiding the blinders of "great men" accounts of historical development. How does Darwin himself appear under scrutiny of Hull's philosophy of cultural evolution? The Dressler Professor of Philosophy at Northwestern University, Hull is the author of numerous books including Science and Selection (Cambridge, 2001), Science as a Process: An Evolutionary Account of the Social and Conceptual Development of Science (1988) and Darwin and his Critics: The Reception of Darwin's Theory of Evolution by the Scientific Community (1973) (both from the University of Chicago Press), and The Philosophy of Biology (Oxford 1998). He has been president of the both the Philosophy of Science Association and the Society of Systematic Zoology. Professor Hull will be in residence at Claremont McKenna College until February 17 as a Podlich Distinguished Fellow. This year's Podlich program focuses on the implications of Darwin and evolution. The other fellows this year include Professors Michael Ghiselin of the California Academy of Sciences and Richard Lewontin of Harvard University (both also in residence in February) and Professor Dame Gillian Beer of Cambridge University (in residence in late March and April).
Russia's Stalled Transition
Ten years ago the Soviet Union ceased to exist. The new, post-Soviet Russia has borne out some of the hopes that were afoot a decade ago about a smooth "transition" from dictatorship to democracy and from a command economy to a market economy. But many hopes have not been fulfilled, and the accession to power of a new president, Vladimir Putin, has raised fears that Russia may revert to previous authoritarian ways.
Professor Timothy Colton will evaluate the new Russia's progress from several points of view, including those of the Russian people themselves, and assess the prospects for progress toward a liberal society and politics.
Professor Colton received his B.A. and M.A. degrees from University of Toronto and his Ph.D. from Harvard University. He is the Director of the Davis Center for Russian Studies (formerly Russian Research Center) at Harvard, and is the Morris and Anna Feldberg Professor of Government and Russian Studies at Harvard University.
Professor Colton is the author of several books including Transitional Citizens: Voters and What Influences Them in the New Russia (2000); Moscow: Governing the Socialist Metropolis (1996) (winner of award for best scholarly book in government and political science by the Association of American Publishers); and editor of Patterns in Post- Soviet Leadership (1995).
The Keck Center for International and Strategic Studies and the Marian Miner Cook Athenaeum are pleased to co-sponsor Professor Colton's visit to Claremont McKenna College.
Podlich Distinguished Fellow
Biologists and geneticists have been making great claims for the Human Genome Project to answer many if not all the mysteries of human life. Richard Lewontin, the Alexander Agassiz Research Professor of Biology at Harvard University and one of the leading geneticists of our time, has vigorously challenged these claims and attempted to show precisely what biology and evolutionary theory can and cannot explain. Attacking reductive misconceptions of genetic determinism, Lewontin has underscored the complex interractions of gene, organism, and environment in the development of life.
A brilliant scientist and writer, Lewontin has been called by Clifford Geertz "the Voltaire of the Age of the Absolute Gene." And Stephen Jay Gould has said "Lewontin is simply the smartest man I have ever met. His knowledge and broad humanistic perspective. . .give us the precious gift of access to his insights, his warnings, and his distinctive view of life." Lewontin's recent books include The Triple Helix (Harvard University Press 2000) and It Ain't Necessarily So: The Dream of the Human Genome and Other Illusions (2000). He is also the author of The Genetic Basis of Evolutionary Change (1974), Biology as Ideology: The Doctrine of DNA (1992), and The Dialectical Biologist (1985) (with Richard Levins). Professor Lewontin will be in residence at Claremont McKenna College until February 24th as a Podlich Distinguished Fellow. This year's other Podlich Fellows discussing the implications of "Darwin and Evolution" include Professors Michael Ghiselin of the California Academy of Sciences and David Hull of Northwestern University (also in residence in February) and Professor Dame Gillian Beer of Cambridge Univesity (in late March and April).

If you want to hear what woman is thinking, if you want to hear what a woman sounds like today, listen to Jennifer Warnes.
-Leonard Cohen
What better way to celebrate Valentine's Day than spending an evening with Jennifer Warnes, contemporary pop and country singer/songwriter who "sings with a voice unlike any other-one of the purest in popular music."
Jennifer Warnes first received public notice when she became a regular on the television show "The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour" in 1967. In 1968 she played in the original cast of the Los Angeles production of the musical Hair. Warnes achieved perhaps her greatest critical success with "Famous Blue Raincoat," her 1986 tribute to Canadian poet, Leonard Cohen. This album remains a favorite among audiophiles and fans, who also remember Warnes for her string of hit movie themes.
In April of 1980, Jennifer's recording of "It Goes Like It Goes," from the film Norma Rae (1979), was awarded the "Best Original Song" prize at the annual Acadmey Awards presentation. It would be the first of four Oscar- nominated movie themes for Warnes, all but one of which would take the award. Her other Oscar awards include "Up Where We Belong," with Joe Cocker, from 1982's An Officer and a Gentleman; and "The Time of My Life," with Bill Medley, from 1987's Dirty Dancing. In addition to her three Academy Awards, Warnes has collected a pair of Grammys and a dozen chart hits, including three number ones and three top ten singles.
Warnes' successful career began early. She was offered her first recording contract at the age of seven (her father turned it down), and made her professional debut two years later when, wrapped in an American flag and accompanied by three hundred accordions, she sang "The Star Spangled Banner" at LA's Shrine Auditorium. By age fourteen, Jennifer was a member of Actors Equity and, after high school, was offered an opera scholarship to Immaculate Heart College. She opted instead to pursue a less conventional singing career.
Jennifer Warnes is busy these days putting finishing touches on her newest album. Please join the Athenaeum for a concert of acoustic music that will include the familiar as well as original songs from her new album.
F. Scott Fitzgerald and Hollywood
The year 1937 found F. Scott Fitzgerald destitute, drunk, and physically and creatively dissipated. Heavily in debt and despondent over a stormy marriage and the failing health of his wife Zelda, Fitzgerald approached his agent, Harold Ober, about writing for the movies. Ober came through with a six-month contract with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer at $1,000 a week. That summer, Fitzgerald set out for Hollywood, leaving behind Zelda, who had been committed to a sanitarium in 1936, and his daughter Scottie, for whom Fitzgerald's agent and Mrs. Ober had become surrogate parents. The windfall of the MGM deal enabled Fitzgerald to pay off most of his financial debts, but the writer never could meet what he saw to be his more important obligations. His efforts to aid in his wife's convalescence failed miserably, and horrific guilt over having squandered his talent troubled him for the remainder of his tragically short life. Fitzgerald died at age 44, believing himself a failure.
In his Athenaeum lecture, Barry Menikoff will discuss the travails and excesses of Fitzgerald's sojourn in Hollywood-his tentative efforts as a screenwriter, his tumultuous romance with movie columnist Sheilah Graham, and the genesis of his novel, The Love of the Last Tycoon, still incomplete when the author succumbed to a heart attack in Graham's apartment in December, 1940.
Barry Menikoff, Professor of English at the University of Hawaii, has written extensively on English and American literature of the 19th and 20th centuries. His recently published critical edition of Robert Louis Stevenson's Kidnapped; Or the Lad with the Silver Button (2001) is the first ever to be based on Stevenson's original manuscript. Menikoff is currently a Mayers Fellow at the Huntington Library.

The Athenaeum serves as a gathering place where ideas, inquiry, and fellowship bring students, faculty, staff, other scholars, and nationally prominent speakers together. Attendance at any event may be limited to persons associated with CMC, to the people who signed up for dinner, or to the maximum number of people allowed by fire regulations. On some occasions the speaker may address the group in another forum or the College may set up a video feed to handle an overflow crowd. House rules and common courtesy prohibit disruptive actions during an Athenaeum-sponsored address-no shouting, no signs, and no banners inside the building. The College has invited the guest speaker to address the audience-we ask that those who attend an Athenaeum-sponsored function come to hear what the speaker has to say. Time allowing, there will be a period set aside for questions. Students will have priority during this portion of the program. The Athenaeum has a dress code for all dinners. Please dress in an appropriate manner: no shorts; no jeans; no t-shirts.

MacBook Air 11 with 4G/LTE?
I would really like to have a MacBook Air 11 (Retina, yeah right) with 4G/LTE built-in. So I can add it to my AT&T mobile share data plan for $10 a month and GO-FOR-IT!!!
Do you think this will happen ever? I am really not into carrying around my iPad, I only bring it with me when I know I am going to be watching SlingBox for like an hour+ on it. So, I am not really an iPad guy. I would tote my MacBook Air 11 LTE with me every where I go tho in a heartbeat, cause I just can't do that with my MacBook Pro 17.
So, does anybody have any Rumors on 4G/LTE being built-in on the next MacBook Air 11/13, or even Pro? But I would really wouldn't like to carry a Pro tho...
|Dec 29, 2012, 01:22 AM
If it hasn't happened yet, I don't think it's going to happen at all. Remember, the iPhone has a built-in WiFi hotspot for network sharing. So I think Apple's thoughts are that you'd just use your iPhone as a hotspot.
As an alternative, you can get USB dongles from Verizon or ATT that will give you coverage on your laptop. If you already have a share plan, I'd think you could add it to your plan. Also, there are dedicated mobile Wifi hotspots that are designed to be a mobile hotspot.
|Dec 29, 2012, 04:49 AM
It's already here. It's called an iPad.
2012 MBA 13, 2 Ghz i7, 8 GB RAM, 512 GB SSD; 2011 MBA 11, 1.8 Ghz i7, 4 GB RAM, 256 GB SSD; 2010 MB Pro 15, 2.66 Ghz i7, 8 GB RAM, 512 GB SSD; two iPad 3s and a mini, two iPhones and a bunch of iPods
|Dec 29, 2012, 05:12 AM
Two Reasons
So we are talking:
1. slow handshaking via wifi or even bluetooth, to jumpstart the internet connection
2. battery drain on your iPhone being in hotspot mode all the time to be ready
Two big reason for me.
I wanna be able to walk around at my nearest social club and:
sit at a table, pop the lid, type, close the lid
iPads suck heheh I'll just say it right now. Nah, Just depends what you want...
mines a TV right now that's it
I am a developer, I need Xcode and builds and typing...
ps I know there's some development environments for iOS etc

While ur waiting, u can always buy a USB cellular modem, somewhat easier than setting up a hotspot.
|Dec 29, 2012, 01:32 PM
Yeah true
|Jan 1, 2013, 01:11 PM
using the iphone as a hotspot sucks. its a great way to suck the battery life out of your phone in 20 minutes. adding the mac air to my verizon shared data plan would be ideal.
|Jan 1, 2013, 02:14 PM
You can also use USB to connect the iphone hotspot and charge your iphone at the same time off the MBA ( I can with the iPad or Razr). At least as easy as a USB cellular modem - leave hotspot on, WiFi and Bluetooth off and plug or unplug USB at will.
Just carry iphone, a USB cord, and MBA ......... sucks only the MBA battery .

I don't think it's gonna happen. They already have service with iPad and iPhone. I would add more possibility if They had LTE option on iPod touch. And I believe LTE on MacBook Air is pretty useless
|Jan 9, 2013, 01:27 AM
I use a mi-fi device, the battery is rated to last only 4 hours but mine seems to last at least 8.
|Jan 9, 2013, 04:08 PM
Using wifi, it turns on the wifi radio for 5 minutes and you have to toggle it off and on to connect after that. And it does crush the battery.
|Jan 27, 2013, 12:41 AM
I decided to go ahead because
After looking at the $699 models from MacConnection, I was in line to go ahead and get one for that price, I figured this is a pretty good deal, instead of waiting for Apple to release a new model with built in 4G/LTE
The reason why was because on the MacBook 11 1.6 GHz (2011) it has Bluetooth v4.0 and the iPhone 5 has Bluetooth v4.0, and I figure if I they both, just got a nice Bluetooth v4.0 connection for internet, with the new Low Energy spec (BLE), this should be a really clean connection.
So I am excited, but last minute Best Buy decided to drop in too, $100 more ($799) for the 1.7 64 GB with USB3, so I said forget it, ponied up and went down to Best Buy, I also decided to go with the 128 GB instead because I added up apps to 64GBs and that would go quick, you could do things tho with the USB 3 and flash drives which could work, I figured the 64GB 2011 with USB2 swapping flash drives would kinda suck.
So $899 + tax. They suckered me in yeah. But this is going to be really nice I think the Bluetooth v4.0 chips from the iPhone and Air should be really similar, so this will be it for 2 years I think, until a Natural 4G/LTE built-in.
Thanks all, laters...

For those talking about iPhone tethering, why not USB tether?
I know it's not the most ideal or sleek solution, but it DOES work and it DOES keep the iPhone charged. On my 13" MacBook Pro I'm able to tether with my iPhone for a solid 5 or 6 hours via USB while the iPhone remains at a 100% charge. (A couple weeks ago I had a meeting several hours away and my wife tagged along, and we switched on and off the driving but both used the MBP non-stop to surf the web and stuff, after about 5 and a half hours it was still online, though nearing dead! I do have a power inverter but I was curious to see how long the battery would last).
But with USB, you don't need to go out and buy any new devices, or worry about iPhone battery life. Also, bluetooth tethering will reduce battery drain quite a bit over Wi-Fi tethering if it just MUST be wireless.
There's also 4G/LTE USB dongles that are not too expensive. If I were going to buy something, I'd take that over a mobile hotspot box. At least, for my uses. My iPad and iPhone already have 3G/4G/LTE, and having something else with a battery to maintain on a trip would be a pain. I'd rather just stick a USB stick in.
Years ago I was 'tethering' with a PC card, a 3G modem. I had unlimited data for $10/month with AT&T, I'd take the SIM card out of my cellphone and stick it in the PC card. The PC card would send/receive text messages and phone calls too (you had to plug a headset into the card though for phone calls) and I'd be online and good to go! It doesn't work anymore though. First off, none of my laptops have a PC card slot anymore (Expresscard if anything). Secondly, it won't work with an iPhone data plan!
Apple did experiment with a 3G enabled MacBook Pro years ago. I'd like a 4G/LTE MacBook Pro if I could add it to my AT&T share plan for the same price as a tablet! ($10/mo.) If it cost any more than that I'd just tether, I'm cheap like that!
I dunno if we'll ever see it though. It's sort of a niche product. There's not a huge demand for folks that need internet on the go who also can't nab it wherever they are. Honestly, I use tethering most on the road when I have another driver. Occasionally if the internet goes down at home (I have a fairly unreliable ISP), but that's about it.

Apple could of course add cellular LTE support into the MacBook Air line, but they never will. They want you to buy an iPad instead. You are simply the modern victim of how a company operates today, in terms of product differentiation and maximizing profits.
|Jan 27, 2013, 09:01 AM
My iPhone Hotspot is on 24/7 - doesn't drain the battery unless someone is connected.
WiFi connections - Have to activate that screen in options for the WiFi to show up as it turns off the WiFi after X minutes of inactivity. When connected via this method, the battery drains fast (maybe 3-4 hours?).
USB connections - Just plug it in and you're on. No need to unlock the phone and dink around with settings (as long as you leave the hotspot on all the time like me). Negative is having to carry a cable with you.
Bluetooth - Haven't tried. Though I might now.
I use 5-80GB/month from tethering. It isn't that bad.
|Jan 27, 2013, 10:12 AM
Connect an iPhone with personal hotspot on through USB.
It charges while connected to LTE. Battery loss from the Air is minimal. No extra charges for a new device on your Verizon account. No schellping an iPad.
It's one extra cable connection. Handshake is instantaneous.
If you travel internationally, you are not stuck to the original provider, since you can swap out the nano SIM for you carrier of choice.
Given this, I'm not sure why a built in LTE makes any sense.
Note that almost all laptop makers (besides Apple) have abandoned this feature.
|Jan 27, 2013, 10:18 AM
Do not fark with your Mac if you don't know what you are doing.

I phone 5 is the only LTE phone that doesn't do simultaneous data and voice
|Jan 27, 2013, 11:11 AM
Do not fark with your Mac if you don't know what you are doing.
|Jan 27, 2013, 11:30 AM
But, again, on a GSM carrier it works fine. And that's still many of us, and almost everyone internationally.
|Jan 27, 2013, 12:05 PM
Yeah it does work on GSM.
But apple decided to disable it for CDMA which was yet another limitation on the device.
A bad decision
|Jan 27, 2013, 12:20 PM
It's a limitation of CDMA. CDMA cannot handle simultaneous voice and data, period. The iPhone 5 only has one radio. The reason LTE works on OTHER CDMA phones for simultaneous voice and data is that they use the same CDMA chip as before, but ADD an extra LTE chip. So on those phones, you can talk via the CDMA chip, and pull data via the LTE chip.
With the single radio though, it can't connect to both CDMA and LTE at the same time. Think of it like the radio in your car. Your one radio can't play two stations at the same time, you need a second radio. CDMA only comes in mono (like AM) so you need two radios to get both sides of the signal (voice and data) otherwise you only get one at a time. GSM is like Stereo FM, you can bring in two channels (voice and data) at once on one radio. Currently, LTE is data only, so it itself can't carry both channels (voice and data) you have to simultaneously connect with a voice radio.
The reason it works on GSM, is that LTE is based on the same frequencies as GSM. So it's already tuned to the same station. So it is two separate technologies working together, but they are on the same station so it can still pull both channels. (LTE Data and GSM voice) So it can pull data, and simultaneously connect with the tower and make a voice call or send/receive a text message.
If you need simultaneous voice/data on CDMA, you need a device with two radios. Apple says they couldn't make that happen in the form factor of the iPhone, while still making it a 'world phone'. (One that can operate on either CDMA or GSM networks, which is useful for CDMA users who travel outside the US, which is pretty much the only country still using the older CDMA technology). There are some other handsets that are a bit bigger and/or lack GSM capability, so they are able to fit two radios instead of just one.
So, the bottom line is, it's carrier limitation. It's not like Apple can just 'turn it on'. CDMA won't work alongside LTE, the radio itself has to change frequencies to move on to LTE, and change again to go back to CDMA. CDMA itself is unable to handle both data and voice, it's a limitation of the technology.
Unfortunately, the issue we have in the United States is that we are sometimes the first to adopt certain technologies. Even if they are invented elsewhere, we are often the first to deploy it on a big scale (at least for now). That means that we get the kinks figured out, then everyone ELSE starts fresh with that knowledge in mind. CDMA is a result of that. CDMA does have a longer signal range, but it has certain limitations (beyond just voice and data) that make GSM a better deal, which is why the near-entire rest of the world uses it. But, CDMA made sense in the large and not-so-dense US back when cellphones weren't smartphones! The cost of switching those carriers over to GSM would be tremendous, unless something happens like with telephone lines, where the federal government forced providers to 'share' their lines so a customer could have any telephone provider, even if it wasn't the one who ran the telephone wire down their road. If that happened, Verizon and Sprint could use GSM towers already in existance. But I don't see that happening, and it's not as necessary with cell providers as it was with terrestrial land lines years ago (companies would severely gouge people who had no choice in telephone providers, because they had to go with whoever ran the wire down the pole! There was no competition)

I've always believed that a mobile hot spot is the best solution when it comes to connecting non-smartphone portable devices to the internet. Your device is not stuck to one carrier and prices are cheaper. Plus, hot-spots aren't that expensive without contract so you can just activate the service in the months you'll really need it. The only benefit about built in data is that you spend almost no time connecting. That's great, but IMO the benefits outweigh the cost.
Edit: By hot-spots I mean a separate device meant only to be used as a hot spot not an iPhone using the "Personal Hotspot" feature.

Black cats have never had it easy. In fact, they have long been considered bad luck and unfairly linked to witchcraft for centuries. With it being Friday the 13th, we think it's the perfect time to put some common assumptions about black cats to the test.
Black Cats Bring Bad Luck
False. In reality the color of a cat's coat has nothing to do with good or bad luck. And just for the record, in many other cultures, a black cat is a prized pet. In places like Japan and the British Isles, they're even thought to bring their pet parents good luck!
Black Cats Are Evil
False. Sure they may jump on the kitchen counter or use your favorite chair as a scratching post. And just maybe they even try to nibble your toes while you sleep. All cats can be playful. But evil? We think not.
Black Cats Are Often Unwanted
True. Ask any shelter or rescue worker and they will tell you—black cats are the hardest to get adopted. In fact, they are only half as likely to find homes as other cats. So, what's the problem? An unfairly earned reputation? Yep.
Black Cats Make Awesome Pets!
True. Black cats may get a bad rap, but really they're just as lovable as the next furry feline. So help us turn their luck around.Share this article with your friends, and consider adopting one of the cuties currently available at the ASPCA Adoption Center!
I have adopted 2 black cats. The first lived to 17 years of age and had a beautiful, loving temperament. So after he died, I adopted the second black cat. To my delight, he has a similarly loving and beautiful temperament. I have yet to meet a black cat I didn't like.
i have the sweetest cutest little black cat in the world so I am positive that the rumors are false! Unless u r a mouse!!!!!!
My lil rescue black is the sweetest kitty I've ever owned. The only "bad" about her is how she likes to be within 2ft of my feet, so I have to be careful I don't trip on her. Otherwise, she is quite the lovey who lays on laps, loves to be held, and is super blissed out when she gets to go outside (she's also learned to say "out" ;)). She's not usually too bad of a shedder, either!
We have a black cat that adopted us. It was just after Halloween last year, she showed up around home & seemed to want to stay. She was so loving & sweet. We fed her, she appeared to be starving. I immediately went out to buy cat food and brought her inside. We tried so hard to find her owners, using the local newspaper lost & found, posters in the neighborhood & Craigs list. It was so sad that no one was looking for this beautiful creature. As you can guess, we kept her and have never regretted 1 day since. She is beautiful, elegant and a wonderful loving pet. Please don't pass on black cats, I also have the "best" luck of most people I know!
Black cats were considered good luck by a lot of different Pagan faiths, thus in the eyes of early Christians they were "evil" and that's one of the reasons they got that nasty reputation.
History Fact: If so many cats hadn't been killed during the "witch" burning times the Black Plague probably would have never happened, or at least would have been far less devastating (cats would have killed the disease carrying rats.)
I have one cat who is mostly black and she's my baby, but my Mother's (rest her soul) cat was a black Bombay and she was the sweetest & most mellow cat I have ever met.
One trick I've heard of for getting black cats adopted in shelters is to give them a "fun" name to get people to notice them. The most popular is "Jellybean".
I have had three black cats and they have all been wonderful. In my opinion they have so much more personality than the others, and they love to talk to you. I have always looked for a black cat when adopting.
We have had our black cat for about 12 years and he is the sweetest baby ever, he is a big cat but has a cute itty bitty meow! He loves to be loved and will rub on you & he talks to me, we meow back & forth he is the only cat I've ever had do that.
I have two black cats that I have adopted and they are absolutely wonderful....one even LOVES to play fetch! It was this ridiculous superstition and the knowledge that it was harder to find homes for black cats that made me adopt them and I made sure my 11 year old son was fully aware of the reason why we would only be adopting adult black cats. I would love to have one more, but we can only have two pets in our apartment.
I have had 3 different black cats and they have all been lovable and playful. I am disappointed in people for adopting a kitten/cat because of the color of its fur. They all need a forever family. Please think of them as your next best friend.
I adopted my kitty cat from the Humane Society when she was 9 months old. Poor baby had been living in the shelter ever since she was a baby kitten; all her brothers and sisters had already been adopted. I guess people didn't want her bc she is a black kitty cat. Their loss, she is amazing. I hope that more people embrace these sweet pets and ignore all the BS about black cats and bad luck!

The best thing I can say about this item is that it is warm. However, the fit was very loose (and I sized down) and not suited for winter cycling. I have found myself using it for trail running where it is adequate. Not great - but adequate.

Great product for comuting with, it really helps with blocking out the cold air ad breathes decently, to prevent sweat build up. I wear this with glasses and it doesn't fog up while moving at all. The only thing preventing this from getting 5 stars would be the length, it would be nicer if it was cut longer to make it easier to tuck into a shirt or jersey to seal better and prevent drafts.

WILMINGTON — Beth Becka has had a recurring part in 'Matlock,' appeared opposite Jennifer Lopez in 'What to Expect When You're Expecting,' and mastered leading or supporting roles in theater productions from New York to California.
But now she's well into her second year as a Wilmington entrepreneur with her own startup business, and it's not an act.
"When we opened our doors," Becka remembers about the 2011 debut of her Insight School of Acting on Randall Parkway, "we had two teachers and 14 students. Today we have 7 teachers and over 70 students.
"By August, that number will be up to 90. With a zero marketing budget to start, we have relied heavily on word of mouth, our website and our Facebook page."
Word of mouth was not an issue. She's lived in Wilmington for 20 years now, working in film and theater, supporting the community and teaching at the University of North Carolina Wilmington.
"And with the way the film and television industry is booming here, (starting the school) was just a natural fit for me, and the market," Becka said. "We are unique in this market in that we are the only acting studio offering an on-going program of courses for the student to progress from a beginning level through to advanced-level courses."
Becka has deep roots not only in Southeastern North Carolina, but throughout the state.
Her master's in acting and directing is from the University of North Carolina-Greensboro, and her Wilmington credits include fundraising for local nonprofits - but always with one hand, or mainly both feet, in her trade: acting - whether performing, studying or teaching.
"An actor's life is, in part, about becoming a perpetual student, certainly of life, but also in training," Becka said. "As with anything that is to be done with excellence, it takes practice."
In fact, she has been in Oregon this summer refining her acting and teaching talent at the True Acting Institute.
Back in Wilmington this July, her business will be gearing up for numerous summer programs based on two of the key elements of her school's success.
One is on-camera classes, where students are taught to be more natural in front of the camera, learning relaxation, the moment before, in-the-moment delivery, and substitution. Becka promises students will be on-camera acting in every session.
The other is audition taping services. Becka said the audition process is one of the things that has changed in the film and television industry the most in recent years.
"Where we used to go to the casting directors' offices to audition live, in this digital age, almost all auditions are taped," she said. "One of the areas of real growth for us has been in offering this service."
Prior to starting the Insight school, Becka also got credit for some "home schooling."
Daughter Caitlin, now 25, has grown up around and in the Wilmington theatre scene, with leading roles with Opera House Theater Company, City Stage and Thalian Association. Caitlin is playing the role of Audrey in the upcoming Opera House production of "Little Shop of Horrors."
No longer a family affair, anyone can try Beth Becka's teachings, and her teaching staff. Here are some upcoming sessions for aspiring actors of all ages at the Insight School of Acting:
