Remembering Zahra Era

It is my sad duty to inform you that our friend, Zahra Era, has passed away this morning. For most of us, we remember Zahra during our time in JAC. She would hang out with us from time to time too. To my best memory, she always had love for "the Riordan boys" of JAC. 

Not too much is known of what she was sick of but she was in and out of the hospital a lot for the last few weeks. She had troubles breathing this morning and was rushed to the hospital. Unfortunately she was pronounced "dead" upon arrival. 

JAC contacted me of all arrangements. Michelle (Munch) and the rest of the older JAC staff and YC's and the Era family would love to have us present at Zahra's memorial and/or funeral. 

The memorial will be held this Thursday and Friday at Cypress (near Lucky Chances) from 4-9PM. The funeral will be at St. Paul of the Shipwreck this Saturday at 10:30AM. 

Please contact me for any more information and hopefully some of us can get together for Zahra.

From Chester French:

It's 5am and we're sitting in our tour bus with the lights dimmed finalizing mixes while we write this email and invite you to finally check out the first new music we've released since 2007. First, we'd like to thank you for helping us get this far. We started Chester French in 2003, during our freshman year of college, and the past six years have been a remarkable journey.

On April 21, we'll be releasing our full-length debut album, "Love the Future," a record that we began more than four years ago. We hope that with that release we'll be able to convert millions of music fans into Chester French supporters. But you've been with us from the start, so we wanted to give you a special gift today: a totally free full-length album. Welcome to "Jacques Jams, Vol. 1: Endurance."

Last year DJ Clinton Sparks came to us with an offer to make a Chester French mixtape. While we appreciated his enthusiasm (and peerless physique), we wanted "Love the Future" to be the World's first taste of CF. A few months ago, though, we caved to Clinton's relentless advances and agreed to work on a project with him, but only if it would be more than a mixtape. Since then we've had an amazingly fun time making the free album that you're about to experience.

"Jacques Jams, Vol. 1: Endurance" is a chronicle of the past six years of our lives. It tells our story, from the gymnasiums of Harvard to the hills of Hollywood. Unlike "Love the Future," which we've written, arranged, performed, produced, and engineered by ourselves, "Jacques Jams" features a collection of new, original music that we created in the hills of Massachusetts and then invited some of our favorite artists to grace.

As young artists, we couldn't be more grateful for this opporunity to collaborate with legends like Jermaine Dupri, Diddy, Pharrell, Pusha, Talib Kweli, Bun B., The Mad Rapper, Kardinal Offishall, N.O.R.E, and Jadakiss as well as younger friends like Janelle Monae, Cassie, Wale, Solange, Lady Gaga, and Mickey Factz. All of these fantastic artists have been more than generous with their creativity and hard work, so we owe them an enormous debt. Clinton Sparks, above all, has tirelessly guided us toward success and endurance, a tall order with obnoxious perfectionists like us! We'd also like to thank Clinton's manager, Daouda Leonard, for his endless help and beautifully manicured beard.

Now CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD "Jacques Jams, Vol. 1: Endurance."

The next month will be pivotal as we put out "Love the Future" through Star Trak / Interscope records. We hope that you will continue to tell all of your friends and family about our music and movement. Consider yourself an ambassador of our VIP Concierge Service, which anyone can join for free at www.chesterfrench.com . Please encourage everyone you meet to visit our site and join. Every single new supporter truly takes us one step closer to sustaining our touring and recording. As always, we love to hear from you so respond to this email or write to chester@chesterfrench.com any time with any ideas you might have for how we can better spread the word!

Love the future,

"He's one of the most breathtaking rookies I've seen in person -- ever..."

I always check out Page 2 on ESPN.com and this time Bill Simmons aka the Sports Guy talks about how great Randolph is and how absurd how the Warriors don't give him more playing time. Looks like even people outside the Bay Area pay attention to Randolph. Good read.

Q: YES! YES, YES, YES!!! Please write about Anthony Randolph! I've been telling people about him all year long. There's never been an NBA player with his size and skill set. Ever. He's a looong 6-foot-10, runs like a gazelle, has great hops, and can handle the ball. Love it. As an added bonus, he looks like he's constantly crying or really getting his feelings hurt. He's fascinating. I get genuinely giddy any time the Warriors are on, for him alone. Can you please let America know about Anthony Randolph?
-- Aaron, Chicago

SG: He's one of the most breathtaking rookies I've seen in person -- ever -- for all the reasons you just described. There has never been anyone quite like him. He's like a cross between Josh Smith and Lamar Odom, only if you fed him 10 Red Bulls and told him right before the game, "If you can make 10 things happen during the 10 minutes you play tonight, we will quadruple your salary and you will start for the rest of the season" ... and then he does just that, but the coach reneges on the promise so Anthony has a near-crying meltdown on the bench. That's every Anthony Randolph game. I caught him once and, in the span of two hours, he made three "MY GOD!" plays and broke down on the Warriors' bench because Nellie wouldn't put him back in, followed by an assistant consoling him through an entire timeout like Randolph was a third grader who got in trouble for something he didn't do, then had a meltdown and got kicked out of class. It was riveting. The odds of me missing another Clips-Warriors game for the next five years are 10,000-to-1.

One other thing: There hasn't been nearly enough made of how screwed up the Warriors are right now. Their front office and ownership situation is a world-class mess. Their coach has been in "I'm Keith Hernandez" Mode since the 2007 Dallas upset and looks like he's actively trying to get fired. They have two young players everyone loves -- Randolph and Monta Ellis -- only they've been antagonized to the degree that it might affect them long-term. In Randolph's case, how can a lottery team not play a talent like Randolph 35 minutes a game? What the hell is going on here??? For some reason, the only media member who seems to care is Tim Kawakami. I don't get it. If I were a Warriors fan, I would be organizing protests outside the arena complaining about Randolph's playing time. It's insane. Imagine if Chicago was 16-50 and played Derrick Rose 10 minutes a game. Would you think that was weird? You would, right? Welcome to Anthony Randolph's world. This is the single weirdest subplot of the 2008-09 season, narrowly edging Zaza Pachulia's bacne.

Strangely, I have a good feeling about this season for the Giants. Excellent pitching staff, but could use a big bat here and there. I actually think we have a decent chance in the West.

so i ran into this guy over the weekend and had a chance to chop it up wit him for a lil bit.. if you dont recognize him, it's Jason Hill of the 49ers.. pretty chill ass dood.. i was helpin him out as he was doin his lil autograph session.. i brought up the high school days when he played for Sacred Heart.. if you didn't know, he's class of '03.. i didnt even know.. anyways, he was sayin how high school was some dope ass days.. when i told him i went to riordan, he was playin around sayin "aww what?! get outta here.. i dont like riordan cats".. anytime some fan told him what bay area high school he/she went to, he was like "ohhh whaaat.. this guy went to riordan.. we dont like him".. then he told me how he talks to E. Wright every couple weeks and how he remembers them days when we had marquise and tofi and how they had "OOOoOo-deee-OOOoOo OoOOo-deee-yaaayyy" haha.. i found out J. Hill lives out in Sac in the offseason.. homie cant even get courtside seats at a kings game hahah.. told me how he got seated up in the nosebleeds.. anyways, i thought it was pretty coo to see a local athlete make it big time.. even tho sayin "im a receiver for the 49ers" isnt really sayin much nowadays.. hopefully they turn it around next season

Giants Starting Pitching: Lincecum, Johnson, Cain, Barry Zito and Jonathan Sanchez, unless Noah Lowry makes a quick comeback. <<< This is a very good looking squad on paper. All of our starters are proven Aces!!! With better batting this season, I believe that the Giants can win the NL West this year! BEAT LA!!


There will be no big moves for the Giants this Spring Training but come the trading deadline in July I believe that the Giants will make some good moves to acquire some decent batter as other teams will try to dump players for their salary.

GO GIANTS!

Essentials of a Sick Concert

Essentials
#1 Good Artist
#2 Cool Venue (small or big, don't matter)
#3 21+ only
#4 Bar/drinks available
#5 No assholes ruining it for you
#6 Lights off during the performance (stage lights are ok)

Extra Points
#7 Surprise guest(s)
#8 Unique stage/set
#9 Good view
#10 Weed

I thought #6 would be a given, but apparently not at USF (Lupe).

Add anything else if I'm missing something.

I've probably been to atleast a dozen concerts/shows... here's some of my experiences...

Best Big Venue Concert I've Ever Been to/Best Stage:
Glow in the Dark Tour: Kanye West, Rihanna, N.E.R.D. & Lupe Fiasco @ HP Pavillion in San Jose, April/June 2008: so nice I had to see it twice, and I'd probably go again if there was a third

Best Small Venue Concert I've Ever Been to/Best Surprise Guests:
Mos Def @ House of Blues in Hollywood, October 2004: surprise guests included Talib Kweli, Common, and Kanye w/ Will I Am playing the drums, and all of them performed on stage together during the whole show

Best Venue:
LA Sports Arena, November 2003: I forgot the name of the event but there was a rave inside the Arena and a hip-hop festival outside that featured DJ Q-Bert, Blackalicious, Talib Kweli (w/ Kanye when he was still only a producer), Big Boi of OutKast, and Nas.

Biggest Asshole Award: The 3 "E-Team" Bitches that wouldn't get off our friends' seats at the Lil Wayne concert @ Oakland Coliseum

Worst Concert Venue: Lupe Fiasco @ USF Memorial Gym... nothing against Lupe, he was good... just not a great experience... c'mon the lights were on and it felt like a high school dance.

Lets have a Scratching PARTY!!!

It's been a while fellas and well...I know that if I'm feeling this way, you guys feel the same. I've been having this itch (kinda like the one you get on your back that you can't scratch with your hands so you end up using a hangar to get to it but end up making yourself bleed from the hangar? wait....nvm.) But I've been having this itch to gamble. Soooooo...I was thinking, lets get a poker night on this weekend. Not a friendly game but a REAL game, no cents for blinds, dollars for blinds status. I can see it now Gordon and JR in a hand where Gordon flops a full house and somehow JR bluffs his way to making a straight flush and where the pot is $100 dollars big.

Anyone else down??? If not I'm just gonna watch the Notebook at home while I eat ice-cream and mashed potatoes in my bed.

Bosh to Warriors??

I like the idea of getting Bosh but this seems like way too much. But it could be worth it if they can lock him up to a long term deal agreement before the trade. What do you guys think?

ESPN: Five trades that should happen

1. Raptors send Chris Bosh to the Warriors for Andris Biedrins, Anthony Randolph, Ronny Turiaf, Marco Belinelli and a future No. 1 pick

Why should the Raptors do it?
Because the writing is on the wall in Toronto. I'm not sure how the Raptors are going to keep Bosh in 2010, and, no, I don't think adding Shawn Marion really helps in the long term. This deal would give them a ton of young talent to rebuild. And the fact that much of it has an international flavor only makes it sweeter for Raptors GM Bryan Colangelo.

Why should the Warriors do it?
You don't get the chance to add an All-Star big man every day. And with Monta Ellis and Corey Maggette, the Warriors would have the building blocks to be special again.

Will it happen?
The biggest question is whether the Warriors, the most dysfunctional franchise in the NBA, could keep Bosh. They would have enough talent to convince Bosh to stay, but their situation is so messed up that it's a big risk.

The second biggest question is whether the Raptors would do it. Colangelo has been pretty adamant that they won't deal Bosh at the deadline. But if they were able to get this much talent in return, he'd have to take a long look.

Lupe Fiasco @ USF Friday Feb. 20th

There's an app for that... "21"

Engadget: There's an app for that: Casinos on alert for card counters using iPhones

File under "It was only a matter of time": The Las Vegas Review-Journal reports that Nevada gaming authorities are warning casinos to be on the lookout for blackjack card counters getting an assist from their iPhones. While card counting itself is not banned in Nevada, the use of an assistive technology is a felony (!), and apps like Card Counter or A Blackjack Card Counter make it much easier for the math-impaired. ABCC's 'stealth mode,' which uses vibration to alert the user when the time is right for a big bet, is particularly head-achey for casino security.

Nevada casinos don't have any instances yet of gamblers being kicked out or arrested for iPhone use -- the initial warning was from California authorities, who spotted card-counter apps in use at a Northern California casino and thought it prudent to raise the alarm. The lure of easier blackjack winnings may be too tempting for some people to pass up, but the consequence of this iCheating may be that we all have to check our iPhones before heading to the blackjack tables.

Aside from the logistical challenges of an iPhone ban in casinos ("Sure, I don't need my phone, my family knows that I'll be here at the quarter slots for the next five hours"), this is a fascinating example of how the App Store is turning us all into denizens of the Matrix, with skills and information on demand and jacked in, literally at our fingertips. Need to level a bookshelf? Fine. Want to identify local birds? Done. Get your garage mojo in gear? Can do. Learn a language? Of course. Adding the ability to move money from the casino's pocket into yours with better odds than usual seems like a natural next step... and another 'disruptive technology' is going to come into conflict with a long-established, politically and economically powerful industry. Let's watch.
