• Journey to an OC Tourney

  As of today, it’s only 85 days until college basketball starts…not that anyone is counting, ahem. But in case you are, rejoice! The inaugural Anaheim Classic college basketball tournament is set for November 22, 23, and 25 of this year. Twelve games of bracketed, idiosyncratic collegiate ball will be hosted by the Anaheim Convention Center, with eight teams from all over the country. University of California, Irvine will be the sole Big West representative; CSU Fullerton is set for next yea

• Ask a Mexican Invades...Bulgaria?!

  In a way. Long Beach State journalism professor Christopher Karadjov also writes a weekly column for a Bulgarian newspaper about life in the States. In October, he wrote about my ¡Ask a Mexican! column to good feedback from his Bulgarian readership (whom, no doubt, are predisposed to like Mexicans since they upset Mexico in the 1994 FIFA World Cup). He shared this information with me yesterday, when I spoke to his senior seminar on opinion-writing at Long Beach State. As to what Karadjov actual

• On The Wall: Shape Up

  Edwin Abbott's 1884 cult classic sci-fi novella Flatland follows a (literal) square, a humble citizen of the 2D world that gives the story its name. Mr Square is stunned to discover the spheres and pyramids of the third dimension (or Spaceland), and the story ends with the square as a heretic, imagining still more possible dimensions. Al Held had a lot in common with that square; he began his career with resolutely 2D work in the traditional, abstract expressionist mold, but as the decades passe

• Jim Gilchrist to Speak at Long Beach State Today--Students, Please Go

  The Southern California progressive community is abuzz with word that Minuteman Project founder Jim Gilchrist and his anti-illegals pal, Ted Hayes, will "lecture" at Long Beach State today. "The topic is to inform students and the general public on the Racist Agenda of the La Raza at the national, college, and high school level," says the press release put out by the Conservative Student Union, which doesn't even have a location for what will surely be an afternoon of laughs.

  ​Rick Berry's a lot of things. Some of these things include jazz trumpeter (currently in the Hollywood Canteen Swing Band), political candidate (he ran for Long Beach city council) and gardener (he's got a killer backyard garden). But to the rest of the world, he's got a new title that is pretty darn spiffy--marketing manager for the Long Beach Symphony Orchestra. If you're like me, you're wondering why a jazzman is getting in bed with classical music. I just had to ask.1. Tell the people a li
