  • Straight out of Hollis, Queens, Joseph “Run” Simmons and Darryl McDaniels (backed by Jason “Jam Master Jay” Mizell) turned the entire world on its ear with their literate rhymes, hard-edged delivery and social consciousness, paving the way for Public Enemy, N.W.A and everything that followed. The group’s signature sound—booming beats hitched to heavy-metal guitars—ignited hip-hop’s explosive chart domination.
  • At 17 she won an amateur-night competition at the Apollo Theater, and for the next six decades Fitzgerald was the voice of American jazz—first as a swing goddess, then as a bebop scat queen and finally as the smoothest interpreter of gold standards. Her classic albums devoted to such tunesmiths as George Gershwin, Cole Porter and Harold Arlen prove that the Great American Songbook is still required reading: Listening has never been easier.

  • With the Olympics only a month away, athletes cannot risk falling sick and are taking few chances.
  • "You don't really want to go sailing around in pollution and I've never sailed in a place that's more polluted than this," said Australian coach Euan McNicol, a former skiff world champion.
  • The most shocking story is that of Australian sailor Elise Rechichi, who swallowed water when she slipped on a boat ramp during a test event here in 2006. It took her 10 months to recover from severe gastric trauma that had her in and out of hospital.
  • "It's made us all reasonably wary of what's going on,"
  • But for many Olympic sailors it's what they can't see in the water that is their greatest concern.
  • Boats, bulldozers and the military have been deployed to remove the eyesore.
  • On Saturday, officials briefly claimed victory over the algae saying the course had been cleared.
  • But Qu Chun, the 2008 Olympic sailing competition manager said the bloom has not been totally wiped out, estimating that 2-5 percent of the course was still affected, down from nearly a third a week earlier.

  • A deadly toxin, arsenic is known for its ability to end life.
  • Since the 1990s, scientists have discovered about 20 species of bizarre bacteria that "breathe" arsenic.
  • They are typically found in environments where oxygen is scarce and have been forced to survive on whatever strange substance is easily available.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • "Just like you and I inhale oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide, these bugs breathe in Arsenic +3 and breathe out Arsenic +5,"
  • Arsenic +3 is the most poisonous form of the element, because it acts much like phosphorous.
  • Most life on Earth needs phosphorous to build the molecule adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which supplies cells with energy. Arsenic can substitute for phosphorous and upset the ATP molecule, essentially starving cells to death.
  • n the arsenic-rich, oxygen-poor waters of Mono Lake, Oremland and a team of researchers found that bacteria turn the lethal toxin to their advantage through photosynthesis.

12 Surefire Basketball Tips for the Off Season - What Should Players Do Between Seasons? - 0 views

  • The season is winding down. Routines change, friendships have grown, priorities change. As a player, what should you do now? When practice time comes and there is no practice, what do you do? When there are no games to prepare for, what do you do with your time? Here are a just a few thoughts I had as to how to recover and prepare for the next season. 1. Take 3 - 4 weeks to relax. It has been a long, physically and mentally draining season. If you want to improve, you have to give yourself a chance to recover. 2. Catch up and get ahead of your schoolwork. 3. Talk to your coach and evaluate your season. Talk about what you did well and what you did not. Determine the areas you need to improve on. Discuss the things you would like to do and how to accomplish them. 4. After taking a month off, start on your off-season workout program. The program should be about 75% skill work and 25% play. 5. Develop your shooting stroke. If you want to become a GREAT shooter and raise your percentage, it MUST happen during the off season. It's just TOO difficult to develop these skills and improve during the season. It must be done during the off season! 6. Start a strength training program. Your objective should be to gain strength from now until the end of the summer. 7. As you enter the summer, add more play to your workout. You should be at about 50% skill work, 50% play. Don't neglect your weight work. Great strength gains can be made during this period. 8. Go to camp. Learn form other coaches, play against different players. The more diverse your summer experience, the better player you will become. 9. When the summer is over, your routine changes. GET AHEAD in the classroom. Once the season starts, it is easy for your schoolwork to slip. 10. Change your workout routine to 25% skill, 75% play. 11. Switch you strength training routine to an endurance and strength maintenance routine. 12. A week before the season, take some time off. Get ready to go.
