IRONWOOD — Andy and Halley Borseth shot nine-under-par 62 to win the 19th annual Gogebic Community College Basketball Golf Classic two-person scramble held Saturday at the Gogebic Country Club.
Eight-two golfers participated in men's, women's and mixed divisions. The Borseth duo captured the mixed division title, while Jim Milakovich and Joe Matrella shot 67 to win the men's division, and Nancy Dalpiaz and Nancy Levra captured the women's division with a 78.
"We were fortunate to have decent weather for our event. We had a nice turnout of golfers which allowed us to have five different flight winners," said men's basketball coach and athletic director Dennis Mackey.
"This is a major fundraising event for our men's and women's basketball program. Coach Stephanie Justinak and I extend a grateful thank you to the businesses and individuals who sponsored holes and donated prizes, the volunteer workers, and the golfers who helped make this another fun and successful day at the golf course," Mackey said.

Once you're 40, counting calories is key: Nearly every major chronic disease — including heart disease and many forms of cancer — is linked to weight gain," says nutritionist Christine Gerbstadt, MD, a spokesperson for the American Dietetic Association. "But you also need to focus on optimal nutrition." One way to do that is to combine foods; experts believe that putting good-for-you foods together is even healthier than eating them solo. "We're learning more about food synergy, the idea that the whole meal is greater than the sum of its parts," says Dave Grotto, RD, author of 101 Foods That Could Save Your Life. "The disease-fighting actions of one food may enhance nutrients in the other and vice versa." Add these 10 multitaskers to your shopping cart today.
Whole Grains The high fiber and satiating properties of these foods (brown rice, kasha, dark bread, quinoa, whole-grain cereal) make them ideal for keeping your weight down. In fact, when Harvard researchers followed over 74,000 nurses ages 38 to 63 for 12 years, they found that those who ate more whole grains consistently weighed less than those who didn't. And women with the highest fiber intake were 50 percent less likely to gain a major amount of weight in midlife. Studies have linked diets high in whole grains with a lower risk of type 2 diabetes, heart disease and colorectal cancer. Whole grains are digested slowly and steadily, and experts believe this helps control blood sugar, diabetes and insulin levels. Because insulin may promote the growth of tumors, the thinking is that lower levels reduce the chance that colon cancer will develop. Whole grains also contain fiber, vitamin E and plant sterols (substances that bind to cholesterol in the digestive tract, which prevents them from being absorbed), all of which work to lower LDL, the "bad" cholesterol that clogs arteries. Finally, whole grains are rich in antioxidants and phytochemicals, which essentially act like bodyguards, protecting cells from free-radical damage that can trigger disease and signs of aging.
Recently, scientists at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst examined samples of both dairy and soy yogurts for properties that keep diabetes and hypertension in check, including enzymes that help control blood sugar levels. Of all the yogurts tested, blueberry soy yogurt packed the most punch. While blueberry got top honors, plain soy yogurt was also a standout, containing the highest levels of disease-fighting antioxidants. (Plain soy yogurt is also lower in added sugar, so toss some fresh blueberries into that serving of plain yogurt and enjoy a calorie savings.) What's more, one six-ounce container can provide up to 30 percent of the recommended daily intake of bone-strengthening calcium. "The protein in yogurt also makes it satisfying, so you eat less overall," Gerbstadt says. Protein stays in your stomach longer and takes longer to digest, leaving you feeling fuller longer. Eating protein (versus the same amount of fat or carbohydrate) also produces a greater thermogenic effect, a transient jump in metabolism.
Eating one ounce of these hunger-satisfying nuts provides you with about 12 percent of your daily recommended fiber intake. Scientists at the School of Public Health at Loma Linda University found that when people were asked to eat an additional 320 calories from almonds every day for six months, their average body weight increased by only three quarters of a pound. The researchers believe that the way that almonds were digested and absorbed by the body led to the study subjects eating less of other foods without realizing it. (If they had truly added 320 calories a day from foods other than almonds, they would have gained an average of 21 pounds.) Almonds are also extremely heart healthy: A recent study in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association of 41- to 54-year-olds found that when they consumed 20 percent of their total daily calories from plain, unsalted almonds for four weeks, their blood levels of the antioxidant vitamin E increased while their total cholesterol and triglycerides decreased. Not only that, but their LDL, or "bad," cholesterol levels dropped while their HDL, or "good," cholesterol levels rose.
Eat three cups of black beans a week and you'll reduce your risk of heart disease and colon cancer. A review of the diets of more than 4,500 people ages 40 to 59 found that those who consumed the most vegetable protein had the lowest blood pressure. And research from the National Cancer Institute found that people over 35 who eat the most beans have the lowest risk of developing precancerous colorectal polyps. Beans are also a useful weight-management tool: One cup provides 12 grams of fiber, with just 180 calories and 14 grams of satiating, metabolism-boosting protein. Black beans are probably the most ubiquitous type — available in many restaurants and delis — but you can easily substitute your own favorite bean and get the weight-loss and disease-proofing benefits.
Salad offers weight watchers a satisfying twofer: It's high in fiber and big on volume, so you feel fuller longer. That explains why Pennsylvania State University researchers found that women consumed 12 percent fewer calories overall when they ate a large salad (three cups' worth) prior to having a pasta meal. "Salads that contain lettuce and other raw vegetables are an easy way to boost your intake of low-calorie, nutrient-rich vegetables," Gerbstadt says. "It's one of the most important dietary changes you can make over 40." Fitting in at least five servings of produce daily helps to maintain heart health, memory function, vision and bone density.
What doesn't it prevent? The March 2006 issue of the Journal of Nutrition devoted an entire section to 35 separate studies linking garlic to a reduction in cancer, Alzheimer's disease, high blood pressure, inflammation and heart disease. And garlic packs just five calories per teaspoon.
At just 30 calories per cup, most yellow squash is full of key nutrients for midlife women. It's high in vitamin A, which has been linked to improved immune function and a reduced risk of both skin and lung cancers. It's also full of lutein, a phytochemical believed to prevent age-related vision loss.
A cup of whole unprocessed soybeans delivers eight grams of fiber (over 30 percent of the recommended daily intake) for just 240 calories. Edamame is also high in protein — it has 20 grams per cup — which makes it satisfying and a metabolism booster. It can also help you fight osteoporosis. A study done in China involving 200 postmenopausal women found that those who ate 80 milligrams of soy isoflavones per day (a little less than what you get in one cup of edamame) showed a significant increase in hipbone density.
Weighing in at 15 calories and one gram of fiber per cup, 94 percent fat-free (butterless) microwave popcorn is one of the best pound-paring foods around. Do the math: The typical six-cup bag delivers nearly 25 percent of the recommended daily intake of fiber for about 200 calories or less. Popcorn is a whole grain, and corn has the highest level of antioxidants of any grain or vegetable.
A shake or two provides intense flavor but adds zero calories. Cayenne also contains capsaicin, which has been shown to boost calorie burning. All that heat is good for your heart too. A study of animals found that capsaicin prevented the oxidation of LDL cholesterol. Oxidation is the process that leads to hardening of the arteries and, eventually, heart disease.

|Director of Athletics
|Lone Rock, Wis.
|Alma Mater:
|Graduating Year:
NCAA Documents and Reports
Shawn Eichorst was named the University of Nebraska's 14th Director of Athletics on Oct. 4, 2012, by Chancellor Harvey Perlman. Eichorst leads a tradition-rich athletic program of 24 intercollegiate teams, 600-plus student-athletes and more than 300 full-time employees. Nebraska is a world-class academic institution with one of the finest athletic programs in all of college sports.
Eichorst has made nearly 300 public appearances describing his primary mission to lead Nebraska Athletics in providing Husker student-athletes with the resources and support they need to be successful in academics, athletics and life. Eichorst's philosophy is to ensure that the health, safety and welfare of student-athletes is at the heart of every action taken and every decision made.
He serves on the Chancellor's Senior Administrative Team and regularly meets with campus administrators and deans. Eichorst's monthly radio show and Connecting on Campus column promote the university's academic successes, along with the academic, athletic and community achievements of all Husker student-athletes.
Eichorst was the first Director of Athletics to visit the Big Ten Conference-based Committee on Institutional Cooperation (CIC) at its Champaign, Ill., headquarters. The CIC is a highly successful academic-based consortium of 15 schools, including all 14 in the Big Ten Conference. Nebraska is leading the Big Ten and the CIC in several areas, including the Digital Humanities and head injury research.
On Dec. 4, 2014, Eichorst announced the hiring of Mike Riley as the Huskers' new head football coach. One of the most respected coaches in the profession, Riley was a highly sought-after coach and the hire was highly praised by prominent members of the media, the coaching fraternity, Riley's former players and current and former Nebraska student-athletes.
The overwhelmingly positive reaction to the high-profile hiring spoke not only to Riley's reputation, but also to Eichorst's ability to look beyond traditional measures by which coaches are judged and find an ideal cultural fit to lead the tradition-rich Nebraska football program. Eichorst secured one of the finest football minds in the world, a teacher of young men and a positive-thinking leader who will represent Nebraska Athletics in a first-class manner while reflecting the department's core values of Integrity, Trust, Respect, Teamwork and Loyalty.
Under Eichorst's watch, Nebraska extended its nation-leading total of CoSIDA Academic All-Americans to 314, including seven in 2013-14. Nebraska also increased its nation-leading total to 17 NCAA Top Ten Award winners, as Mary Weatherholt (women's tennis) earned the honor in 2014. In 2013-14, a total of 279 Huskers were honored at the Student-Athlete Recognition Banquet, with 123 earning their undergraduate degrees and the Big Ten Conference honored 208 Husker student-athletes with Academic All-Big Ten awards, an increase of 20 from 2012-13.
In 2013-14, Nebraska became one of only two NCAA institutions, and the first Big Ten program in history to qualify for a bowl game or NCAA postseason play in each of the following sports: football, volleyball and women's soccer in the fall; men's and women's basketball in the winter; and baseball and softball in the spring.
The Huskers performed well with 15 of Nebraska's 24 sports qualifying for bowl/NCAA postseason action. In the fall, the football team defeated Georgia in the Jan. 1 Gator Bowl; volleyball advanced to the NCAA Elite Eight; and soccer won the Big Ten regular-season title as well as the postseason tournament and defeated Southeastern Louisiana in Lincoln in the NCAA first round. The women's basketball team won the Big Ten Conference Tournament and won an NCAA Tournament game for the second-straight year. The men's basketball team made its first appearance in the NCAA Tournament in 16 years, marking the third time that both the men's and women's programs qualified for the NCAA Basketball Tournament in the same year and the first since 1997-98. Softball tied for the Big Ten regular-season championship, then went on to win an NCAA Regional and advance to a Super Regional for the second straight year, taking eventual national runner-up Alabama to the wire. The baseball team played for the Big Ten title for the second straight year and defeated Binghamton (New York) in the NCAA Stillwater Regional.
Eight other Husker teams competed in NCAA postseason action in 2013-14. The women's bowling team was the NCAA runner-up; women's rifle finished fifth in the NCAA; women's gymnastics advanced to the NCAA Super Six; men's gymnastics placed eighth at the national meet; wrestling finished 11th nationally; men's track and field placed 17th indoors and 12th outdoors; and women's track and field placed 19th at the NCAA Outdoor Championships.
Nebraska coaches were recognized for their efforts with Tim Miles (men's basketball) and John Walker (women's soccer) earning national coach-of-the-year honors. Four Husker coaches earned Big Ten Conference coach-of-the-year honors, including Miles, Walker, Rhonda Revelle (softball) and Connie Yori (women's basketball).
Nebraska's fan support is unparalleled in college athletics. In fact, in 2013-14 with approximately 19,000 new season ticket holders across three new and/or expanded facilities, top 15 national rankings for average attendance were reached across six sports, including football, volleyball, men's and women's basketball, baseball and softball. Thanks to our loyal fans, three sports have consecutive home sellout streaks in place, including football (340), volleyball regular season (188) and men's basketball (32 including the 2014-15 season).
Under Eichorst's direction, Nebraska continues to focus on improving its facilities and the game-day atmosphere at every venue, including a $12.3 million upgrade of its wireless networks in and around Memorial Stadium completed in 2014. It is the largest wireless network system installation at a college stadium in history. The upgrade includes a new sound system, IPTV system installation and smartphone applications.
In the summer of 2013, Memorial Stadium expansion increased capacity while adding the innovative Nebraska Athletic Performance Laboratory (NAPL) inside East Stadium next to the Center for Brain, Biology and Behavior (CB3). The men's and women's basketball teams became the primary tenants at Pinnacle Bank Arena, and the renovated Devaney Center became the home for Husker volleyball, wrestling and the men's and women's gymnastics programs.
In the spring of 2015, the world-class, $20.4 million Nebraska Soccer and Tennis Complex, located just north of the Devaney Center and Innovation Campus, will be completed. The facilities will rank among the best in the Big Ten and nation.
Eichorst came to Nebraska after serving as Director of Athletics at Miami in 2011 and 2012. During his tenure, he helped grow the academic reputation of an already sterling program with NCAA Top 10 recognition in Academic Progress Rates (APR) for five programs – football, baseball, men's diving, women's cross country and women's golf. A total of $19 million in student-athlete support was generated in 2011-12, the Hurricane Club grew to more than 5,000 nationwide, and $14.2 million in capital gifts was raised to support the Center for Athletic Excellence.
Eichorst hired legendary men's basketball coach Jim Larrañaga, who led Miami to the NIT second round in his first season and the NCAA Sweet 16 in his second. The women's basketball program posted its highest national ranking in school history (No. 5) and advanced to the NCAA second round. The women's tennis team advanced to the NCAA Elite Eight for the fourth straight season, and the baseball team made its 40th consecutive NCAA appearance. The women's soccer team posted the first NCAA Tournament win in history, and the volleyball team made its third straight NCAA Tournament trip.
Before heading to Miami, Eichorst was the Deputy Athletics Director at Wisconsin. He was the Chief Operating Officer and oversaw the day-to-day operations (23 intercollegiate programs, 850 student-athletes, 320 full-time employees) under Director of Athletics and former Husker Barry Alvarez. Eichorst was involved in the design and planning of a new ice hockey and swimming facility, and the Student-Athlete Performance Center at Camp Randall Stadium.
From 2004 to 2006, Eichorst served as the Senior Associate Athletics Director for Administration at South Carolina, overseeing the department's daily operations as well as the football and baseball programs under legendary coaches Lou Holtz, Steve Spurrier and Ray Tanner, respectively. The football team was bowl-eligible each season, and the baseball team competed in the 2004 College World Series. Additionally, he coordinated and supervised multi-million dollar facility projects, including a football training facility.
From 1999 to 2003, Eichorst served as the Director of Athletics at Wisconsin-Whitewater, which produced four top 10 percent finishes in the NACDA Directors Cup, one NCAA team title, two NCAA runner-up finishes and five individual national champions. The program also featured 11 CoSIDA Academic All-America selections, seven NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship winners and 74 All-Americans.
A native of Lone Rock, Wis., Eichorst was an all-conference defensive back, three-time letterwinner and 1990 football team captain for Wisconsin-Whitewater. He graduated magna cum laude in business from UW-Whitewater in 1990 and earned a law degree from Marquette in 1995. He practiced law in Milwaukee until 1999. He is a past member of the NCAA Division I Student-Athlete Reinstatement Committee and the State Bar of Wisconsin Board of Governors. He previously served as an assistant adjunct professor of law at Marquette Law School, where he taught classes in sports law. He serves on the Marquette University National Sports Law Institute Board of Advisors. In 2006, Marquette awarded Eichorst the Sports Law Alumnus of the Year award. He also is a graduate of the Sports Management Institute and serves on its Executive Committee.
Eichorst and his wife Kristin have three sons: Jack, Joseph and Bennett.

Two topics in this entry -- skip down for PT listeners' fond memories of the Cleveland Orchestra. First, the project Yo-Yo Ma talked about on the show today.
His new CD is a collection of collaborations with his musical friends. But Yo-Yo is going interactive online, too. He's recorded a simple, spare solo cello version of the old canon "Dona Nobis Pacem." He's inviting everyone to download that track, record a collaboration with him, and post it online. Entries are due December 31. Yo-Yo will pick his favorite, and that person will get to record with Yo-Yo Ma in person.
You can hear all the submissions right here.
I'm a little surprised that only 41 folks have posted collaborations so far...get yours in, you have a decent shot to record with Yo-Yo.
To collaborate with Yo-Yo, start here, and follow the directions.
All week, we've been playing recent concert highlights from the Cleveland Orchestra (named this month among the top ten orchestras in the world by Gramophone magazine, btw.)
I asked PT listeners to send memories of Cleveland Orchestra concerts and recordings, and the response has been amazing. Here's a sampling.
Mark Brill, San Antonio, TX:
You requested favorite memories about the Cleveland Orchestra. Here's mine:
When I was at Oberlin College in the 1980s, the Cleveland Orchestra played at Finney Chapel in Oberlin twice a year. (I don't know if they still do that). I believe it was in 1984 when they played at on a VERY hot September evening. They sweated through the first half, all dressed in formal attire. During intermission, Christoph von Dohnanyi came out and asked it would be OK if the musicians took off their coats for the second half, to which the audience, mostly latter-day hippies in shorts and tye-dies, enthusiastically cheered and applauded. The orchestra then came out in shirt sleeves and gave the most resounding performance of Schubert 9th, one which is still legendary on campus to this day. After that, we always hoped for more shirt-sleeve performances.
Mary Shields, Fairbanks, AK:
In 1990, I was invited to the Cleveland Museum of Natural History to help with Balto Days, the celebration of the sled dog famous for delivering diphtheria serum to Nome, Ak in 1925. I am a dog musher in Alaska. After a day of festivities at the Museum, my hostess Jonas Stokes, treated me to a concert at Servrens Hall, The CS performing Beethoven's 9th Symphony. We had seats in the third row and I was thrilled with the excitement. When they got to the Ode to Joy, the entire audience stood up and my heart was about to burst. Never had I heard such joyful music. Thank you CS. I'm still singing along with you.
Robert Kunath, Jacksonville, IL:
I grew up in Euclid, Ohio, a suburb of Cleveland. The Orchestra has a wonderful music education program and almost all of the area elementary schools take their students to children's concerts at Severance Hall. I was 10 years old in 1968, when Mrs. Fry's 5th-grade class went to its Cleveland Orchestra children's concert. We had been told that we would hear part of Beethoven's 5th Symphony, so my father had given me an old mono LP of Beethoven's 5th and 8th symphonies with Toscanini and the NBC Symphony. I liked the 5th a lot, and I was excited about hearing it played. We only got the first movement, of course, but I vividly recall the electric tension of the performance (this was the Cleveland Orchestra at the height of the Szell years, of course). The conductor was in furious motion, and as soon as I got home from the concert, I put the Toscanini 5th on my dime-store record player, seized a pencil off the living-room desk, and began to conduct the performance. And that's where it all began: now I'm 50, I own close to 2,000 classical recordings, and, though I haven't lived in the Cleveland area since leaving for college in 1976, I've probably heard more than 50 of their concerts since that day in 1968.
But I never did hear the Orchestra under Szell, who died in 1970. Some years ago, I wondered who the frizzy-haired, third-string assistant conductor had been who had conducted the children's concert I heard. I checked an old Cleveland Orchestra personnel listing from the late 1960s, and I'm dead certain it was the "Kulas Foundation Apprentice Conductor": James Levine. That's a pretty heady combination for one's first classical concert: Beethoven, Levine, and Cleveland. No wonder I was hooked for life!
Warm congratulations to the Cleveland Orchestra on its 90th birthday, and, God willing, I hope to be in Severance Hall in December 2018, when they turn 100.
Richard Humber, Ithaca, NY:
In this week celebrating the Cleveland Orchestra, I have to recommend the most astonishing piece performed by George Szell & CO in what was, I believe his last concert in the US: William Walton's Variations on a Theme by Paul Hindemith is a GORGEOUS piece recorded on a disc with Hindemith pieces (I don't have the info at hand at this moment). The recording's ending has nothing to do with the magic that Szell worked in the Seattle Opera House with it -- and I have never again heard anything so sonically astonishing in my entire life (I was a grad student back then, and am 61 now). My friend and I looked at each other with open mouths and wide eyes in response to such virtuosity as transitions of a single chord from one section to another at the softest possible volume without hearing any attacks, nothing more than a shift in the timbre, and then the entire orchestra together subsiding in volume with excruciating (for the winds!) slowness to a volume where you were straining to know if they were still playing, and STILL able to hear every instrument from the top piccolo down to the bottom tuba. Unbelievable and unforgettable. Most of your audience will have never been exposed to this work, but it is Walton at his very best and in completely world class form!
Flora Gutierrez, Albuquerque, NM:
Alice Chalifoux was the principal harpist for the Cleveland Orchestra for over 40 years and also its first female member. The only recording of her as a soloist with the orchestra is of the Debussy Dances and she used to tell the story that the recording was done on the first take and only a short time after a cast was removed to mend a broken hand. Miss Chalifoux died July of 2008 at the age of 100. Many of her former students hold positions in orchestras around the world.
During the summer of 1971 I was working with the evening maintenance crew at Wolf Trap Park for the Performing Arts just outside Washington, DC--it was its first season. It was a wonderful summer job for a classical music-besotted college junior, despite the overnight trash runs and restroom cleanup disasters. A definite perk was being able to be on hand for the performances (we were "on call" and required to be near the theatre) each evening. A concert by the Cleveland Orchestra under Pierre Boulez remains an absolutely riveting memory for me: Debussy's "Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun" and "La Mer," plus Stravinsky's "Song of the Nightingale" and Bartok's "Miraculous Mandarin" suite. The control exerted by Boulez and the orchestra in each perfomance was revelatory to me, and truly opened my ears even more to music I had just begun to learn about. Even in the twilight outdoor setting--with buzzing cicadas and chirping birds all around--the sound from the orchestra (plus the music shed's subtle sound system) was a model of clarity and concision. It was fascinating to hear oceans and avalanches of sound emanating from the orchestra, while Boulez gave out the only most subtle of gestures compared with many windmilling conductors I had seen up that point. He made the music simultaneously subtle, scientific, and very expressive--through his rehearsals, I'm sure--and the effect of this unusual conductor employing such economy of motion in eliciting the players' exquisite execution of this challenging music suggested his complete confidence in the Cleveland Orchestra and its wide array of capabilities in all kinds of music. I recall that evening, still, with awe and amazement.

After a crowdfunding campaign and a number of benefit shows, Goodbye Blue Monday successfully raised the $7000 it needed to pay back fines owed to the city.
In a post on Facebook on March 23, the owner, Steve Trimboli, expressed his appreciation for the support, noting: "Thank you for your magic. We have reached our goal."
While its immediate troubles are over, there are other problems that loom on the horizon. In particular, a rumored doubling in the rent threatens to create further financial difficulties. However, Trimboli was optimistic about the long-term success of the business, citing the quality of the current management. "I think it'll be ok," Trimboli observed. "Sunday, who's running the place is a great kid and loves the place. That's what's most important."
Goodbye Blue Monday is a lone success story, standing in the face of a larger trend of local music businesses closing in Manhattan and Brooklyn. In October of 2013, the Back Fence in Greenwich Village closed after 68 years in business, due to a pending increase in rent. That same month, the Living Room in the Lower East Side closed due to financial difficulties (though a re-opening is planned for Williamsburg). In April of 2013, record store Bleecker Bob's (also in Greenwich Village) closed its doors after the building was sold to a frozen yogurt establishment. In August, Bar 4 in Park Slope closed due to "financial realities".
This past week, A Gathering of the Tribes, a renowned Lower East Side gallery, launched a last ditch effort to avoid eviction.

According to an April 20, 2012 MMWR report by the Centers for Disease Control, 2011 was the worst year for measles infections in 15 years.
In an average year, 60 measles cases are reported. In 2011, 222 cases were reported. No cases were reported in Columbus or Ohio.
More than 90% of cases were imported. Most cases resulted from Americans traveling internationally. Parents who travel, especially to Europe, can bring this disease home to their children or friends.
Measles is a vaccine preventable disease. The vaccine, MMR, has often been shunned by parents who believe false information that vaccinations cause autism.
The disease is particularly harmful to children and pregnant women. In children, 1 of 10 will get an ear infection and 1 of 20 will develop pneumonia. Up to 1 to 2 children of 1,000 infected will die from measles.
Columbus Public Health offers MMR vaccinations for children and adults. For more information, visit the Columbus Public Health website.

Can't Stop Won't Stop: A History of the Hip-Hop Generation by Jeff Chang
I finished Can't Stop Won't Stop (amazon; wikipedia) a couple of weeks ago. It's a hefty book, weighing in at 500+ pages and it's not a quick read like some of the mostly light fiction I've been burning through since, but I found it a compelling read.
I was looking for new books at an Eslite here in Taipei and saw this book. I'd heard of it before and I'd thought about getting it when I saw it at the Kepler's in Menlo Park a few months ago, but had too many unread books at the time. Now with too little to read and plenty of time, I picked it up without hesitation.
Given that it is a non-fiction history of art in a sub-culture for 30-some years, its a surprisingly smooth read. It's well-researched and all the various areas and stories are fit well into an overall story arc. It gave me a new and interesting perspective on the culture and socio-economic background that spawned this art.
The subtitle is important here: it's not a history of rap music or the history of hip hop culture (though the latter is closer), it's a history of the hip-hop generation. Hip hop, as defined in the book is the four arts of MCing, DJing, b boying and graffiti. If you're only looking for a history of the music, you'll find extra material here. There are also points of the book that delve into areas that are integral to the history of the people, but not of those arts, necessarily. For instance there is a chapter or two–many pages–about the LA riots following the Rodney King trial and the impact on the music is only discussed for a page or two.
There are a few points I feel like I should bring up is this: one is that I think the book's racist. Here's one example. The book makes the distinction in a few places that things can be pro-black without being anti-white. In most instances, this book is unflinchingly pro-black and that's fine. But when a book specifically uses the following nomenclature consistently, one has to wonder if it's also anti-white: Black, Latino, Korean, Asian, white. (Granted Korean is properly capitalized–can anyone find me a style manual that says the others should be as well?) Pro-everything-except-one-thing is sort of like being anti-the-one-remaining-thing in my book. If you pick every kid but one for a basketball team on a playground and tell each one that they're all great, some one would be sure to mention that you're not treating the last kid very well, even if you're just being pro-all-the-other-kids. There are other points in the book where there are many black characters that are described and talked about in great detail (as one may expect from a book about the history of a hip hop culture) while some groups of whites are painted with a pretty broad brush.
Another thing I found myself grumbling at while reading was that while most of the book was meticulously footnoted and referenced, there were some claims about the causes for such-and-such [1] that weren't referenced and, even if they weren't wrong–and I remember thinking at least one didn't agree with my understanding of economics–they certainly weren't self-evident. Obviously the book was well-researched and the claims may not have been furthering the overall story so I would have just left them out.
[1] I regret not having particular passages from the book to reference here.

I'm a white, lower-middle class guy who likes hip hop a lot. I also like Frank Ocean's music a lot. None of these facts qualify me to stroke my chin and ruminate on the 'revelation' that the singer has said his first love was a man. Still, it hasn't stopped large chunks of the media from whipping themselves into a frenzy about the FIRST GAY RAPPER. There are so many things wrong with that three word statement it's shocking.
Firstly, Ocean hasn't 'come out' at all. Sure he's said he was in love with a man and that they had what seems like a very intense relationship but he hasn't said he doesn't like women too. It's perfectly possible that Ocean is bi-sexual or that he had one intense same sex experience. It doesn't really matter when it comes to his music or our relationship to it.
Ocean makes brilliant tunes. He will, hopefully, continue to make brilliant tunes. To measure my interest in what arrangement of genitals he favours in a sexual partner you'd need to hijack the Large Hadron Collider, so microscopic is the toss I give. The only reason I agreed to write this piece is to unpick just how awful the press coverage of Ocean's quietly done blog post has been.
Almost every article I have read has been subtly judgemental and wildly presumptuous. Two honourable exceptions are this blog post by Eve Barlow and this article by Luke Turner of The Quietus. Outside of those nuanced and interesting responses, most of the commentary has been of the OMG! A BLACK GUY IS GAY variety. Just as gay men in football have a hard time because of the culture around them, it is certainly true that gay men in hip hop have had a hard time. So too, for that matter, have lesbian rappers.
But Ocean has not defined himself really and it is not our place to do so either. While it is certainly interesting to unpick why gay and bi-sexual lifestyles are not always as easily accepted in the hip hop community, it is totally untrue to suggest that Ocean, if he is indeed gay, is the first gay rapper. There are plenty of out gay men and women rhyming. Just because they may not have become mainstream stars does not mean they are unworthy of attention or credit.
One of the least enjoyable elements of hip hop is the culture of shouting NO HOMO and dropping rhymes that wish violence on gay people. It's also common for gay to be dropped as an insult in hip hop so often that it resembles the worst corner of a primary school playground. Witness Nas and Jay-Z's infamous beef where the former repeatedly pulled out rhymes with references to "dick-sucking lips" and puns on Jigga's record label name ("I rock hoes, y'all rock fellas…").
Hip hop has had an uncomfortable and often violently antagonistic relationship with homosexuality ever since its inception and it is striking that no openly gay rapper has reached huge star status yet. That said many other genres have yet to promote openly gay megastars.
It's commendable that Frank Ocean felt able to discuss his sexuality in an open way but he is not an emblem of anything but himself and he has not placed a label on himself. It is ultimately quite sad that his attraction to a man is such a huge story. Eazy-E died of AIDS and many in the hip hop community automatically assumed he was gay and operating on the down low. Why? Because the rap establishment bought heavily into the myth that AIDS was "the gay plague".
I'm happy if Frank Ocean is happy. That's the end of the matter. I do hope that his choice to discuss his experience with a man will encourage his sometime-colleagues in Odd Future to ditch some of their incredibly homophobic rhymes but it doesn't seem likely as the group's DJ, Syd The Kid, has been out about her lesbianism for a hell of a long time. Odd Future like to rattle cages and it's always hard to know what they think deep down. What I know for sure is that, ultimately, Frank Ocean's sex life is his business and no one else's. It's a shame I had to use 719 words before this sentence to make that point.

CIRCLE Mentoring Camp
August 16, 2013
FULDA FREE PRESS/Carol Schrieber
The mentors and mentees gathered together on Thursday afternoon before finishing their week of camp at the lake.
Mentors begin year with mentees
"Mentors are needed," Jessica Velasco said as the CIRCLE mentoring camp was held last week in Worthington. High school mentors were becoming acquainted with elementary children in need of good role models at the camp sponsored by the Nobles County Integration Collaborative.
"The high school students had a training in mid-July, to let them know what is expected and what they may encounter," Velasco said. Last week, the high school students met the youngsters in need of mentors, and began their program.
The camp began last Monday, and was held during the afternoons. Crafts, park and water activities and making new friends were among the activities during the week.
On Thursday, the high school and elementary students were paired off to be part of the CIRCLE mentoring program during this year. After the week's activities, "we were able to find out who has made connections with others, and pair them off," Velasco indicated.
Also on Thursday, CIRCLE of Courage awards were given to the youngsters "for doing something out of their comfort zone." Children may have helped someone else to be more comfortable and to talk, or may have had a smile on their face all week. For many reasons, the youngsters were given awards.
Mentors are asked to have contact, with at least a phone call, one time per week, and plan an outing one time each month. "They can do more if desired," Velasco encouraged. Additional large group activities will be scheduled, perhaps at Halloween and Christmas.
Elementary age students, first through fifth grade, are recommended by their teachers and/or counselors on the basis of attendance, self-esteem, grades and personal hygiene.
Mentors must be a junior or senior in high school and be a good role model. Mentors chose to do so for a variety of reasons. "To help someone," "to meet people," and "for the experience" were a few of those mentioned.
"We have to be able to connect with the child," said Maggie Sanchez, a second year mentor from Worthington. Having come 'full circle,' as one who was mentored as a child, Maggie is glad to be able to help youngsters. "We have to look for ways to be connected," she added.
Velasco has been an AmeriCorps Promise Fellow through the Minnesota Alliance with Youth. Jessica works with middle school and high school students at the Worthington Middle School and the Alternative Learning Center. She has been with the Nobles County Integration Collaborative (NCIC) for about two years.
NCIC is a collaborative effort between the schools in Nobles Country and the surrounding area. For more information about the CIRCLE mentoring program, contact Velasco.

Need some major help. Running a Dell XPS/Dimension 630i. It came with "SATA 2 RAID 0 With Dual 500GB Hard Drives." I have installed a new, third non-raided drive and installed Ubuntu on it.
So now I have Windows on the original hard drive and Ubuntu Linux on the new HD. When I get to the boot menu where I can select an OS, if I select windows I get an error: "No such drive, no such disk." Also, strangely in the first place, in order to even get to the bootloader menu I have had to disable ALL ports under the RAID config. Unless I do this, I will just get to a never-ending blinking cursor.
I have tried every conceivable CMOS config and nothing else works. Tried setting port 3 (the new HD w/ Ubuntu) to first hard disk boot priority. Tried disabling all other ports and enabling the Ubuntu HD port and vice versa.
Here's a pic of the error I get when I try to boot to Windows:
Also, please note that I can actually access all files from the raided Windows drive through Ubuntu.
(Someone suggested just reinstalling windows from installation CD. Agree?)

Pleasant dreams
Night before last:
An asylum inmate has finally been released with a bill of good health. After getting his life back together, he has joined the FBI as a detective. After receiving a task at investigating the murder of a woman, he finds that he must infiltrate a high-security asylum. With guards being posted at the entrance, he must find another way in. Dressed as a high-ranking nurse, he gains access to the place where they transport unconscious inmates inside. He lies down and safely is transported inside. While inside, the nurses begin to tie him up to his bed and the agent loses it, breaks free, and begin violently stabbing everyone to death multiple times in the throat.
Last night:
It is night time, and the entire area is filled with a thick, dark fog. The forested area is filled with deadwood and fallen leaves and branches. I see a small hill with a 1 foot tall black metal fence on top of it. On top of the fence are the outline of strange creatures I have never seen before. I climb up the hill only to find thousands of tombstones on the other side, all decrepit and wasting away...a gigantic cemetery for the dead. "Why is everything so dead?" I thought. "What happened here?" As I looked on, I then saw it...a large rectangular pool of water, and just beyond it, a broken down Washington monument.
Oh pleasant dreams...

My 7 year old has been receiving Ocupational Therapy since she was diagnosed at 3 and from day one therapists and teachers have tried to improve her fine motor skills. It's been almost 4 years of countless hours spent working on her writing with therapists at school and after school and with me at home. Still, she has so much difficulty that after writing her name she is exhausted and even thought there has been a lot of improvement, most of her writing is still illegible. Last year while I attended a conference I had the opportunity to meet a wonderful woman and advocate, the mom of a young man with CP as well as several adults who have motor skill challenges just like my daughter. They told me how they had gone through similar situations and how today none of them use a pen or pencil to write; they use a computer just like everyone else. They told me how frustrated they felt when they where expected to do something that they physically could not do and they made me realize not only the absurdity of my quest but the fact that I was missing what was most important: giving my daughter the tools so she could write. I learned a very valuable and hard lesson, my daughter's disability is natural for her. It is life long and she is not broken, she doesn't need fixing.
Assistive technology should be the first resource and not the last. Assistive technology is technology used to perform functions that might otherwise be difficult or impossible, it can include anything from a wheelchair to computer software.
If a child can learn to write, that is wonderful. But if a child's writing is illegible and handwriting is a frustrating task then it's time to move on to a computer. The earlier a child familiarizes himself with the technology that can help him write, the better.
Last year my daughter had to remain in a separate ESE (exceptional student education) classroom because she had "extensive needs." Today she is being included in a regular classroom thanks to technology. She uses a special keyboard with a tablet or a computer to do her work both in school and at home along with specialized software which enables her to write legibly and quickly. She can now keep up with regular classroom lessons and with her peers in the classroom.
There have been so many advances in technology and children and adults with physical, developmental or learning disabilities can take advantage of so many devices, tools, programs, etc. to help them write. There are a wide variety of computer models, tablets, keyboards, accessories and software including eye-gaze software for students with no hand/arm movement. Children with limited hand function may use a keyboard with large keys or a special mouse to operate a computer. Children who are blind may use software that reads text on the screen in a computer-generated voice. Children with low vision may use software that enlarges screen content. Children who are deaf may use a TTY (text telephone) and people with speech impairments may use a device that speaks out loud as they enter text via a keyboard.
Today instead of spending countless hours trying to hold a pencil correctly, my little girl works with her therapists to improve her keyboard skills and she has gone from hating writing to loving it, because now she has the right tools to succeed at it.

Trying to derive a trigonometric function, Wolfram Alpha and my textbook provide two different answers. Here is the function:
$$y = {\cot x\over (1+\csc x)}$$
First step using quotient rule results in :
$${dy\over dx}={-\csc^2x(1+\csc x) - \cot x(-\csc x \cot x)\over (1+\csc x)^2}$$
from there I broke it into a difference of derivatives:
$$={-\csc x(1+\csc x)\over (1+\csc x)^2}+{\cot x(\csc x \cot x)\over (1+\csc x)^2}$$
The solution provided by my text book says the solution is what the first rational expression in the previous difference simplifies to:
$$= {-\csc x\over 1+\csc x}$$
So, am I just missing how $\dfrac{\cot x(\csc x \cot x)}{ (1+\csc x)^2}$ goes to null?
Thanks for the help!

Ludovic Lefebvre has done as much as any chef to shape the last decade of Los Angeles food culture. He made coveted events out of pop-ups and almost single-handedly started the current anti-French dining trend by serving the most basic of dishes (grilled cheese, anyone?) and throwing together ingredients that normally wouldn't be seen together on the same menu page, let alone the same line (grilled cheese with ice cream, anyone?). His savory desserts have preceded those at Red Medicine, the snack-like influence of his petit fours can be seen at Maude, and his almost sadistic twists on meat courses inspired Animal.
So maybe it's fitting that Lefebvre has teamed up with the masters behind Animal, Vinny Dotolo and Jon Shook, in his latest culinary venture, Trois Mec ("three guys" in French). Together the team has created perhaps the most talked-about, slightly-mysterious restaurant there is in Los Angeles, which is still the hottest ticket in town a year later.
Yes, the hottest ticket in town. This isn't an ordinary reservation system, but rather an incredibly inconvenient pre-paid ticketing system that only Lefebvre could get away with. Seats consistently sell out within minutes of being released online every other Friday at exactly 8:00am, and stories of my meals there have always been countered with an incredulous "how did you get in?"
The fact that everything is pre-paid naturally means that you won't be selecting your items off a menu, although there are supplements and drink pairings that can be purchased the night of. Safe eaters won't be comfortable dining here, as the menu will change a few times between your purchase and reservation dates and the dishes tend to veer towards the wacky.
Have you ever tried ribeye with smoked peanut butter? It's wonderful, especially when topped with soubise, crispy shallots, and shrimp flakes. While the plating is not a work of art, it removes any temptation for the diner to nibble at each component separately, and thank goodness for that: the smoky, tangy, sweet, dark-tasting mishmash is undeniably delectable and one of a very small number of dishes etched permanently into my memory. It's strange, but you'd be hard-pressed to find a diner that didn't love it.
Vegetable dishes are a bit funky, too, often consisting of a potato "pulp" dish lathered in intense brown butter or a sheet of grilled savoy cabbage with miso flan and horseradish creme fraiche. The chef doesn't stray away from animal fats, and you can expect the "green" course to be plenty rich.
"Snacks" will always precede the meal, beginning with a buckwheat popcorn of sorts – miniature popped kernels with a zing of vinegar. Salt cod cream on sushi rice or an insanely cheddary gougère might be included in the parade of bites that both begin and end the meal. You might find miso or hay in your desserts, which seem to reflect the Ludo's whims more than any other course. You'll know that the chef has been in a particularly experimental mood lately when he looks in your returned bowl to see if you licked it clean or hardly touched the sweet course.
The pace is refreshingly quick, with the five-course menu clocking in at under 90 minutes, and the staff is very warm and receptive, greeting you with a "bonsoir" and addressing you by name throughout the meal. If you sit at the bar chances are you'll get to chat it up with the chef himself, a rarity in upscale dining, let alone when the man in charge is as famed as Lefebvre.
The secret is out about Trois Mec and the restaurant is going stronger than ever, both in terms of popularity and taste. And with the menu changing as frequently as it does, even past diners will be pounding the "refresh" button come 8:00 am on Friday.

Baseball Picks: Toronto Blue Jays vs. Texas Rangers Prediction: June 14th 2013
Baseball Picks: June 14th 2013
Toronto Blue Jays vs. Texas Rangers
Prediction: Texas -133
This is an unbelievable line considering the starting pitchers on the mound today. The Rangers will have Justin Grimm who has a 2.84 ERA in his 4 home starts this season. The Rangers are 7-4 overall in his 11 starts and they are 3-1 in his 4 home starts. He has the luxury of facing a Toronto team that is batting .241 over their past 7 games.
The Blue Jays will send Mark Buehrle to the mound for his 7th road start of the season. He is 0-3 in his 6 starts on the road with a 6.75 ERA. Buehrle has allowed 44 hits and 26 earned runs in 34.7 innings pitched away from home. He is facing a Rangers offense that has a .280 batting average at home and they are scoring 4.9 runs per game. Against left handed starters their numbers match their home record with a .271 batting average and 4.7 runs per game.
***Jimmy is ready to deliver an EASY MLB WINNER today. Featured is his 5* MLB Game of the Month as part of his 2-For-1 MLB Double Play! He is on a 41-30 (58%) run netting $1000 per game bettors a $10,590 profit!***

The sensors will detect which parking spaces are vacant, and this information will be combined with an app that shows drivers where the empty spaces are and can direct them towards one. The council says that drivers spend on average 15 minutes looking for a parking space in the West End. Serves them right for driving in a busy city centre.
The app runs on Apple and Android devices. Once the driver has parked their car, they can also use the app to pay for parking remotely. The system has been dubbed "Oyster card for cars" and it also reminds me of the London bike hire scheme, although clearly the big difference is that here you're paying during the times you aren't moving.
Westminster signed a three-year deal with parking technology company Smart Parking in November. The company will install 3,000 sensors at "paid-for" and disabled parking bays across the West End. If the trial proves successful then Westminster and London's other councils could extend the scheme across the city, with a further 7,000 sensors.
The deal follows a successful trial, where 189 sensors were installed in streets including Savile Row, Jermyn Street, and St John's Wood High Street. The SmartEye sensors are RFID-equipped and use infrared to detect when a vehicle is occupying the space.
I love this idea. Now, I know that parking apps get a bad rap on this site, not least from my editor Ms Ferraro who last March predicted imminent doom for cities if such apps become common: "In cities where driving is already treacherous, the idea that we're giving people more of a reason to look away from the road is, at best, discouraging."
I agree that road safety is a paramount concern for people whether they are driving in cities or rural areas, and I don't want to give people more ways to be distracted. The risks of pedestrians and cyclists getting injured must grow if drivers are distracted. But, in my view, these apps don't pose much of a risk as long as they're used responsibly.
I already use my phone while I'm driving. Okay, I need to qualify that statement before you get out the pitchforks and come to my house with the intention of burning it down. I already use my phone as a satnav while I'm driving. It's in a holster on my windscreen so I don't need to glance away from the road for longer than is absolutely necessary. I'm not constantly looking into my lap to use a satnav app while driving at 70mph.
Yes, sometimes I need to press a couple of buttons to change my destination, but I can do that quickly while I'm stuck in traffic or I can pull in somewhere. If it's not safe then I wait, and I'd use a smart parking app in exactly the same responsible way. In any case, I usually have someone else there who can press buttons and re-holster the phone.
I can see the apps would be risky if people don't have the phone securely attached and are constantly looking away from the road while they're driving. That's dangerous and should be punished. But the vast majority of drivers don't want to kill anyone and don't want to be killed; and so don't take stupid risks while they're behind the wheel. Most people would use a parking app in a way consistent with that "no killing principle.
We can't just ban these apps on the basis that some people will use them stupidly. If you do that you also have to ban all satnavs, all driving-related apps, and stop people having mobile phones in cars altogether in case they're tempted to use them. You could also make a good argument to ban other distractions like car radios, children, and people with irritating laughs.
Most people who use these apps will use them responsibly. If this does lead to carnage on the streets of the West End then I'll let you know.

Help with glow thing
Sorry if this is a stupid post but I wanna know anyway...
I bought a glow name when the store was up, and I read that we still have the glow names. When I went to see if it was the same, the right code for the glow was in, and when I checked one of my posts I didnt have the glow?
Is this a problem or am I jsut being stupid and not doing something right?
I think it is becuase these forums (Help and Feedback) and maybe some others, have been updated. This means they don't support Glowy names anymore. But if you go to another forum that hasn't been updated (e.g. the Monkey Island forum) you glow name will be in those posts. (I have one too, and it doesn't show here, but it does show in the MI discussion adn some others.)
But once they are all updated, the glow names will be compeltely gone :(
Matt is working on some kinks. Don't worry. ;)
I was just going to point out that there is no option in the usercp to turn your own glow off or change it's colour (I can't get rid of this awful red glow), but I presume Matt is already working on it. =)
You mean..I'm stuck with no no glow name for an ndefinite and possibly infinite ammount of time?
But with the RPG teaser in the control panel,and my love of RPG's..
I think LF is going to rock more than any other forum to date.:D
cole mine.
Okay... (i thought i was about a hundred time at the UserCP and didnt see it. phew.. i was alraedy worried.) then work on some kinks..
experiencing technical glow difficulties
Well lexx has glow....
I've tried turning it on in the user c
.. you have glow too sttct ..
*stares at glowy thing.*
err.. me not ..
*breaks down.*
*prepares to die.*
*stands up.*
NO! I have to go and find out whats going on!!

JC Penney Tries to Woo Back Core Customers
JC Penney appears to be reevaluating its low everyday prices strategy, adding more promotional sales and signs to show how much customers are saving.
Wlodarczyk says she shopped at the store for 30 years and bought everything from clothing to baby cribs from its now-deceased catalog. She no longer shops at JC Penney, however, because everything that once appealed to her -- the catalog, the sales and the brand names she valued -- are gone.
She now does most of her shopping online, shopping for home décor on Wayfair, Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN), and Kohl's websites and buys her clothes at Macy's, Chico's, Lord & Taylor, Coldwater Creek (NASDAQ:CWTR) and Kohl's.
"Clothing (at JC Penney) is now of a much lower quality with less variety, and they have 'gutted' their own labels that I once valued such as their Worthington and American Living lines. They apparently bought the Liz Claiborne label and now that is no longer of the same quality either," Wlodarczyk said in an email.
When she did visit her local store in New Jersey, the experience was disappointing. The store was undergoing construction, making it difficult for her to find clothes. Pricing was also an issue, as the cashier didn't realize what the appropriate price was.
"More than once, when I did try the new store layout and pricing, I had to point out to the cashier that the scanned price on my item was not the posted price," Wlodarczyk says.
She later received an email blast from Ron Johnson asking for feedback about the new JC Penney model. Wldoarczyk wrote to the company but never received a response.
"I realize that the revamp is aimed at bringing in younger people and I understand the need to do that. What I can't understand is how Mr. Johnson, who is supposedly such a savvy businessman, thought that taking a slash-and-burn approach with long-time loyal older customers would benefit the company."
Karen Rose worked at JC Penney when sales were the dominant force pulling in customers. Now Rose, 55, works for as a receptionist for a hospital in Fredericksburg, Virginia.
"Customers used coupons all the time. If they did not have one with them they would ask at the register if there were any extras they could use," Rose said in an interview, adding that there was never a time when the store wasn't running a sale or promotion. Sales associates were never told ahead of time when sales would be but they were told as soon as ads came out and flyers arrived in customers' mailboxes.
Rose used to shop at the store often but no longer does.
"I always found what I wanted at the store for myself or for my family. I miss not getting the flyers or the discounts," Rose said. "It keeps me from shopping there. I would probably wander through if I got promos in the mail. Who knows? I might buy a blouse or pair of pants."
In terms of wooing back former fans, it sounds like Johnson and his staff have a long way to go.
