CLOSING TIME BY NICKY DIAZ | COPY CHIEF

fter serving its customers for more than 60 years, Spec’s Records & Tapes – one of the few record stores left in South Florida – is closing its doors. For now, the last of the shop’s albums and DVDs line up the aisles along with bright yellow discount signs. However, once the inventory is liquidated, Spec’s will close on Jan. 28. According to an article reported by The Miami Herald, Chase Bank will take the place of the record store and its trademark neonletter sign later this year. Despite a change in ownership in 1998,

Spec’s managed to stay afloat when other record stores like Virgin Megastore couldn’t. Martin Spector created the original store – located where Einstein Bros Bagels is now found on U.S. 1 south from campus – in 1948. He then opened the present-day location in 1953. Although much has changed in the music industry since the ‘50s, not much has changed at Spec’s apart from the format of recorded music. The store, however, still sells vinyl. “It’s really sad, any record store closing is sad in my book no matter what kind,” said Lauren Reskin, owner of Sweat Records in Miami. “I definitely was a customer at Spec’s

since I could visit a record store back when I was a little kid.” Margot Winick, vice president of UM media relations, said the record store was a hot spot for UM students on Friday nights during the ‘80s. “It was the place to be,” said Winick, who worked at Spec’s for two years in the mid1980s while she attended UM. “I didn’t even mind taking the Friday night shifts, which ran until 11. My friends would go out, but they’d always cruise by and check out what was going on.” The store would also often host artists who were promoting their albums.

“There were always musicians in the store,” Winick said. “Back in the day, it was a really big deal when musicians would come and play while they were promoting their music.” According to an article reported by The Miami Herald, the Spec’s chain was eventually comprised of 80 stores in Florida and Puerto Rico. Sales exceeded $70 million in 1993. However, changes in the music industry have resulted in the demise of several record stores throughout the last decade – now including Spec’s. SEE SPEC’S, PAGE 5

ACADEMICS

Semesters off provide experience, perspective Application process facilitates time away BY ALEXANDER GONZALEZ ASSISTANT EDITOR

Instead of sitting in a classroom every day last semester, sophomore Emma Garrison closely observed the red pandas at the Prospect Park Zoo in New York City. She studied their cognitive problem-solving skills and learned about the effects GARRISON of environmental changes, such as the presence of a box or ball, on the pandas’ behavior. “I was an intern zoo keeper,” she said. “So essentially, a zoo keeper without the keys to the exhibits.” Garrison is one of many students who elect to take time away from their studies at the university for either a semester or a year. The university labels these cases “inactive” because the student is still registered with the university but not taking courses and has not yet finished the 120 credits required to graduate with a degree. Choosing to become inactive is usually for “continuing undergraduate, degreeseeking students who intend, and qualify, to re-enroll at the University of Miami after leaving the university for a designated period of time,” according to the inactive status notification form that stuJACOBSON dents must complete to begin the process. “I took a semester off because I needed some grounding,” she said. “I wasn’t entirely sure that I was planning on returning at that point.” Inactive students can return to UM after

their time off with all university-based scholarships intact, a registration appointment time to select courses, and the eligibility to live on campus. Inactive students are required to pay a nonrefundable $50 fee each semester they plan to be away to confirm their decision. Garrison, who did not find the process troublesome, was glad that she could turn to her academic advisor for assistance. “It’s not all that difficult,” she said. “I just met with my adviser and he helped me figure it out. In coming back, it was like I hadn’t left.” Garrison’s ease during the application was a welcome change after the difficulties she faced during her first year away at college in Miami. She decided to leave for a semester after having trouble adjusting. Other students, like sophomore Alyssa Jacobson, chose to take a semester off for “unforeseen circumstances.” Jacobson said that she felt there was no better course of action than becoming an inactive student. “I considered what would make me happy,” she said. “I was slightly concerned about being behind by taking a semester off so early in my collegiate career.” Despite their separate reasons for opting to become inactive, Jacobson and Garrison acquired experiences that would not have been possible during a consecutive, eight-semester track. The zoo offered Garrison a full-fledged job given her demonstrated commitment to the animals during her time as an intern. Jacobson interned with Stitch Fix, a San Francisco-based company that develops fashionrelated technology. Customers complete a style profile that a computer algorithm then sorts through, determining what merchandise to select for the user. Jacobson wrote branding and style tags that were sent with each garment. The work showed her that she wants to continue studying advertising and eventually pursue a career in advertising management. “Gaining this hands-on experience so early

in my college studies was completely beneficial,” she said. “As many students realize during their sophomore and even junior years that they want to change majors, which can require extra classes, I was able to confirm that I actually enjoy what I plan to do for the rest of my life.” Garrison’s time with the zoo confirmed her commitment to the study of biology and reminded her why she wanted to attend college. “The semester off was definitely not a loss,” she said. “I think it was totally worth it, considering the experience and mental stability it gave me.” Universities like Northeastern University have adopted Garrison and Jacobson’s situation as a formal aspect of their curricula. Named cooperative education or “co-op” for short, Northeastern, for example, has a century-long tradition that integrates a career-related experience and connects students to more than 2,200 companies in Boston and various international options. For the 2010-2011 academic year, 6,788 Northeastern students participated in a co-op experience out of a total class size of 15,905 full-time undergraduates. According to an article in Forbes, co-op programs in various schools pay students an average of $11,000 to $18,000 after six months of employment in a co-op. Garrison’s internship was not paid, while Jacobson signed a nondisclosure agreement with Stitch Fix and was unable to comment. Frits Bingham, an assistant director at the Toppel Career Center, believes that this plan helps certain UM students, but the university’s curriculum is not designed with a co-op experience. “For some students, it’s a great opportunity,” he said. “It’s somewhat of an interest for students, but employers know that the university is not a coop school.” While the university labeled Jacobson as inactive, she felt that she was anything but inactive. “Interning allows students to access the real-world knowledge and experience that college classes can sometimes lack,” she said.

Online enrollment program increases in popularity MOOCs could replace introductory courses BY ALYSHA KHAN ONLINE EDITOR

An admission to Princeton University is no longer necessary to enroll in its courses thanks to the recent explosion of massive open online courses, or MOOCs. MOOCs are free online classes that are taught by professors from universities around the world. Enrollment in these classes varies from a couple hundred to a couple thousand students. The classes typically last several weeks, with a video lecture followed by discussions and assignments. “You have this great captive audience that is really interested in what you have to present,” said Jennifer Taylor, the lead science teacher at the University of Miami Global Academy and the instructor for the MOOC on biology launched by the academy. Sophomore Ana Gil used iTunes U, an

application that features 500,000 free lectures, in high school to help improve her French. “I used iTunes U in high school to reinforce what I was learning,” she said. The term MOOC was coined in 2008, but the concept took off in 2012 when two professors at Stanford University launched Coursera, a website that offered free college classes. According to an article reported in The New York Times, Coursera now has more than two million students enrolled and offers more than 200 classes in a wide range of topics. While Coursera is the most popular, other schools and institutions are quickly following in its footsteps. Alberto Cairo, a professor of graphic design in the School of Communication, taught a six-week MOOC this past fall semester titled introduction to infographics and data visualization. The class was sponsored by the Knight Center for Journalism in the Americas. “It was an enriching experience,” he

said. “The MOOC was tailored to journalists but we also had scientists, healthcare people, business people, PR people and others.” Cairo had previously taught online classes for universities in Spain and the United States but not at the scale of a MOOC, which often has thousands of students. “I want to do this as an experiment with the platform, with the experience,” Cairo said. The course was so popular that the Knight Center had to cap enrollment at 5,000 students, and is now offering the course again. At the end of November, UMGA launched the first MOOC geared specifically toward high school students. UMGA is the official online middle and high school of the University of Miami. According to Craig Wilson, the head of UMGA, the class was a “rarity in the MOOC sphere” because the majority of MOOCs are at the college level and above. The academy’s MOOC was a review for the SAT II biology subject test. “I really wanted to provide something that would be of real service to the students,” Jan. 17 - Jan. 20, 2013

Taylor said. For Taylor, one of the main benefits of a MOOC is its ability to reach a wide audience. “We are able to help a lot of students in this format,” she said. “They could get high quality prep from their home.” Cairo believes that a MOOC can replace most introductory classes but is not an adequate substitute for a higher-level course. “A MOOC can give you foundations but only that much,” he said.

FAST FACTS Here are some quick facts about recycling on campus the Recyle 2.0 initiative:

RECYCLE 2.0 The Recycle 2.0 initiative will focus on adding recycling bins so that all parts of campus are covered. With standardized labels on the bins and an educational website to clarify any recycling questions, the program aims to increase the amount of material recycled at UM.

THE FACTS

Waste Management is the company in charge of providing waste disposal and recycling services in the city of Coral Gables. The recycling rate is the proportion of outgoing waste that gets recycled as opposed to incinerated or dumped in a landfill. UM’s recycling rate typically ranges from 15 to 20 percent. Among others, the outdoor bins with blue tops that read “Bottles and cans only” are currently mislabeled because all receptacles on campus are part of a single-stream recycling system. Single-stream recycling means that all papers, plastics, metals and other recyclables are mixed during the collection and processing stages instead of being sorted by material.

GREEN U

Sign confusion leads to recycling revamp Recycle 2.0 to pave way for new Green U efforts BY LYSSA GOLDBERG ASSISTANT EDITOR

Sophomore Lindsey Bergholz peers out of her dorm room window, which overlooks a trash dumpster outside of Pearson Residential College. To her dismay, she sees pre-sorted recyclables that have been tossed into the dumpster along with the rest of the trash. She has noticed this problem several times since she moved into her dorm. “Right now there are tons of cardboard boxes in there that I saw people put in the dumpster from a pre-sorted bin of cardboard,” Bergholz said. Bergholz’s concern about the recycling process at UM is representative of many students’ sentiments on campus. Junior Abigail Haddock said it also seems that some students just do not seem to care about proper recycling habits. “I actually just took out all of my recycling from the UV and saw recycling bags with banana peels, which are compostable not recyclable,” Haddock said. “The bins were filled to the top and had edible garbage, which everyone knows is not recyclable.” Student concerns may stem from a widespread lack of awareness about recycling procedures on the Coral Gables campus, according to Energy and Conservation Organization (ECO) Agency Chair Jae Shrader. “There is a lack of education and awareness of waste diversion, recycling practices, and what can be recycled,” Shrader said. “I hear the story all the time: ‘I heard, saw, know that things we recycle here at UM don’t even get recycled. They get thrown away,’ and I want to say, ‘Yes, it might be true, but not for the reason you think.’” Waste Management is the company in charge of providing waste disposal and recycling services in the city of Coral Gables. Recycling bags must contain less than approximately 10 percent contamination – anything that is not accepted as recyclable – in order for Waste Management to accept them, according to Sustainability Coordinator Ian McKeown. In other words, bins that contain too much garbage will not be recycled. “Let’s say you throw out a container of pizza ... ultimately Waste Management is selling all these things and they have to be able to sort it,” McKeown said. “So if the cardboard is soaked with grease, the pizza box would obviously be recyclable, but if it’s soaked, they can’t sell it and that’s the problem.” UNICCO janitorial workers are responsible for determining contamination levels before taking the bags to either the recycling dumpster or the trash dumpster. It is important for students and faculty members to know what can be recycled in order to prevent contamination and ensure that recyclables reach the Waste Management facilities, according to McKeown. Understanding waste management practices

THE MIAMI HURRICANE

Jan. 17 - Jan. 20, 2013

at UM is also of importance. Waste is collected in trash receptacles with black bags, while recyclables are collected in clear bags. This helps UNICCO workers look through the translucent bag and determine contamination levels, McKeown said. “Usually people who don’t know this get confused because, when you see a cart outside and someone’s throwing trash and recycling into the same cart, you’re going to think that it’s all going to trash,” McKeown said. Though The Miami Hurricane contacted UNICCO corporate representatives for the story several times, they were unavailable for comment at the time of publication. Sifting for solutions To help clarify all of the confusion that exists, McKeown and Green U will begin implementing the Recycling 2.0 program. Updates will include new bins with standardized labels. “Many of the recycling receptacles are oddly labeled and confuse people,” sophomore Grace Slawski said. “There is no continuity in our recycling system, so it misleads people.” According to sophomore Andrew Stoquart, Sustainable U engaged in a Recycle Bin Photo Hunt last semester to gauge the differences among the bins. The group found more than 10 different types around campus. “UM’s system is not user-friendly in the least,” said Stoquart, who serves as the group’s vice president. “There needs to be a systematic, consistent recycling system in place.” The Recycle 2.0 program aims to fix these problems. “I want to make sure every classroom has one, that every common space looks the same, every dorm, every office has a similar set up,” McKeown said. For example, in Richter Library, the goal is to put a recycling bin next to each trash can. “The idea is that you can recycle just as easily, instead of looking around and finding tons of trash cans and no recycling bins,” McKeown said. “We’re trying to make everything convenient.” Recycling bins will be labeled with images that illustrate what can and cannot be recycled through UM’s single-stream recycling system. “Single stream basically means you can take newspapers, phone books, soft cover books, magazines, glass, tons of other stuff like junk mail, shampoo bottles, aerosol cans like hairspray, cardboard, and all those things can go in the same bin and get sorted,” McKeown said. UM has been engaged in single-steam recycling since 2009, but still not everyone on campus is aware of this. Sophomore Maneet Tewani said he did not know that all sorts of recyclables could be placed in the outdoor recycling bins with the blue tops. “It says bottles and cans only, so how would we know that?” Tewani said. “They could maybe post it online, like on Blackboard or something, to get the word around.”

Raising recycling awareness In order for Recycle 2.0 to be effective, proper steps must be taken to inform the campus. The program’s publicity campaign includes an educational video and website. The campus can access the website by scanning QR codes, which will be on the recycling bins. The website will have an FAQ section and will track the school’s recycling rate, which is the proportion of outgoing waste that gets recycled as opposed to incinerated or dumped in a landfill. The Coral Gables campus currently recycles between 15 and 20 percent of what is thrown out, according to McKeown, and he hopes for that number to increase with all of these changes. “There’s going to be a big push surrounding the Recycle 2.0 update,” he said. “How long that takes, it’s going to be a little while, but hopefully throughout the spring we’ll start seeing a lot of transformation.” Beyond Sustainability, other departments involved in the change include Campus Planning and Facilities. UNICCO may also have to update its current practices to meet the requirements of the Recycle 2.0 program. Although the involvement of so many groups means the process will take more time, McKeown has faith in the final outcome. “A lot of the time people think they can’t make a difference or wonder what’s the point of recycling, but we have thousands of people recycling every day, and it does make a difference,” he said.

Spec’s closes down after more than 60 years SPEC’S FROM PAGE 1

Since the launch of iTunes just over a decade ago, MP3s have taken over the music industry. Physical album sales have shown a steady decline while digital downloads are increasing. In 2012, CD sales dropped 13 percent while digital albums increased by 14 percent and digital tracks by 5 percent, according to The Nielsen Company and Billboard’s 2012 Music Industry Report. However, the report also states that “physical is still the dominant album format.” Although CDs may not be disappearing anytime soon, record stores seem to be falling off the charts. Apart from digital downloads, shoppers can also buy their music in small sections of big-name retail outlets, like Best Buy and Target. There is no need for consumers to find a local record store anymore. “It’s sad that record stores are closing because even though there’s iTunes, I like to get my favorite artists’ CDs the

day they come out and listen to them in the car,” junior Kerstin Schmitt said. “I think it shows that the music industry is becoming completely digital and artists have had to change the way they record and promote their music.” Some consumers choose to stream their music through sites like Spotify, which hurts musicians. Before the digital age, artists relied on CD sales for revenue, but things have changed in the past decade. Illegal downloading sites like Napster altered the mindset of consumers. “This revenue stream has been greatly reduced by illegal file sharing and the mindset that music should be free,” said Serona Elton, an associate professor at UM as well as the program director for music business and entertainment industries. “Therefore, musicians are looking to other revenue streams to make up for the shortfall.” Record companies and musicians are now relying on touring, merchandise, and the licensing of songs or recordings for films, TV shows and video games.

Junior Carolyn Helmers – singer and guitarist for alternative feminist band Testökra – and her bandmates have considered this new consumer mindset while preparing for the release of their music. Helmers said they plan on uploading music to Bandcamp, an online music store, as free downloads as well as releasing a physical copy of the songs, either as a tape or a CD. “We want to release our music online because anyone will be able to listen, anywhere in the world,” Helmers said. “It gets it out easy and fast.” Labels have also adapted to fit consumers’ needs. “Overall, a lot fewer people are actually buying their music,” said senior Heather Ellis, who is majoring in music business and entertainment industries at UM. “This has led to record companies to have to tap to other sources of income. To do this, they invented 360 deals.” 360 deals are a type of recording contract where the record label taps into revenue streams other than record sales. Although these deals are usually tailored Jan. 17 - Jan. 20, 2013

to the artist specifically, they tend to serve the company’s needs first, according to Ellis. MP3s and CDs aside, there is a silver lining: Total album sales were up for the first time since 2004, from 326.2 million in 2010 to 330.6 million in 2011, according to The Nielsen Company and Billboard’s 2011 Music Industry Report. “I think the future looks good, but I definitely think the industry’s changing,” Helmers said. “The industry is going through a makeover and bands have to adapt, but it’s not necessarily a bad thing.”

What do you think of gun control and why?

CLAYTON WANDISHIN JUNIOR “As far as gun control goes, I think it’s silly just because the people that gun control would be aimed at aren’t the ones that follow laws - criminals break the law whether they’re tough or strict.”

TAYLOR HARTLEIN FRESHMAN “Personally I think guns should be controlled because I don’t think it’s necessary for the common citizen to be able to have a gun.”

STAFF EDITORIAL

On Wednesday afternoon, President Barack Obama spoke about gun control at the White House. In his speech, he said that tougher gun laws needed to be created and enforced to keep “our children safe.” “In the days ahead, I intend to use whatever weight this office holds to make them a reality,” he said. “If there’s even one life that can be saved, then we’ve got an obligation to try.” In 2012, there were 16 mass shootings leaving more than 80 people dead. Some of these shootings happened in places where people shouldn’t fear for their lives – a mall, a funeral home, a movie theater and a school. Every week, there was one new shooting to report. There was one more body to count. There was one more family broken. In the midst of the tragedy, gun advocates and members of the National Rifle Association kept saying the infamous line, “Guns don’t kill people. People kill people.” That solves nothing.

Fortunately, Florida is one of the many states that decided to hold a buyback program where people who own guns could exchange them for cash, no questions asked. In late December, the Opa-Locka gun buyback program set a record after the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. More than 100 weapons were turned in. For every handgun, owners received up to $50 and for every rifle, owners received up to $100. The buyback program before that was held in June and only 58 guns were turned in. Some gun owners are obviously starting to realize that having a gun may not be as safe as one would hope. Though owning a gun may instill a sense of power, it also instills a sense of fear. At any given moment, your gun could end up in the wrong hands. Worse, your emotions could lead you to use your gun to make the wrong move. And there is no turning back from that. Fighting violence with violence has never been the answer.

The infamous saying “two wrongs don’t make a right” holds true in all cases, including the use of guns. In the U.S. Constitution, the Second Amendment states that everyone has the right to keep and bear arms. But the Second Amendment was also adopted in 1791, when guns took two minutes to reload and technology was practically nonexistent. In this day and age, the right to bear arms has given people the right to bear assault weapons. That was not what the Founding Fathers intended. Obama’s message is a step in the right direction. Stricter gun laws may not stop the nut cases or the serial killers, but a restriction is better than a limitless right. If states are moving gun owners to return their weapons, then Congress can move a country to a new state of mind – where the right to bear arms is not infringed upon, but the right to bear weapons is. Editorials represent the majority view of The Miami Hurricane editorial board.

Cost-cutting essential for avoiding postgraduate bankruptcy

CHRISTOPHER IVORY SENIOR COLUMNIST

Students need more than loans to pay for their overpriced degrees. The time is now to reduce tuition and stop bankrupting students before graduation. The cost of a college degree has increased more than 1,000 percent in the past 30 years. In 1999, $90 billion in student loans were outstanding. As of 2011, that balance was $550 billion – a 511 percent increase in a decade. That would be like paying $120,000 for a Honda Accord in 10

years. The numbers are equally frightening in graduate school. The average tuition and expenses for a veterinary degree at a private university has doubled in the last 10 years to more than $200,000. And 85 percent of law school graduates are facing an average debt load of $98,500. The problem is obvious: The cost of a college education is growing faster than we can pay for it. It is now the new debt sentence of virtual jail where

the cell doors may only be opened with payments that cut through our pockets like a knife does through bread. Students are powerless in this situation. It is up to our government and administrators to tackle tuition and education debt. Even President Obama spoke of his loans at a rally at the University of Colorado Boulder. He said, “My wife and I paid more for our student loans than we paid for our mortgage each month when we first bought our small condo in Chicago.” The president has advocated that federal funding for schools that raise tuition should be reduced. But with even less federal funding to schools, such universities would be incentivized to raise tuition and stick students with the tab to make up for the loss. However, there are holistic micro-solutions that could immediately be put in place to collectively lower the magnanimous cost of tuition. Salary cuts and caps for certain college faculty is the step toward lowering the bill. In 2011, Gov. Rick Scott posted the salaries of employees at a few state universities. The report showed that more than 20 professors cashed in an annual salary exceeding $500,000. If the salaries were capped at $200,000, then the state would save

$7 million. This is hardly enough to see a change in the tuition bill, but it is a step in the right direction. Outsourcing courses would be equally beneficial. This is not to suggest we send students to Indonesia, but outsiders could be hired to teach courses at less than the usual per-credit-hour cost. Instead of a full-time instructor teaching Hip-Hop Dance 300, students could be taught at a local dance studio by a performance instructor. Fully digitizing the college experience is not possible, but offering more online classes is cheap, easy and saves the university the cost of a full-time professor. Besides, we’ve all taken a class or two that doesn’t require us being there, so why not take it from home? Each cost-cutting mechanism has its pros and cons, but something must be done immediately to curb the cost of education. If we do not change the current model of education economics, countless students will continue to be wrongfully imprisoned by student loans and forced to carry out the new debt sentence. Christopher Ivory is a second-year law student.

STORY BY KYLE RAMBO CONTRIBUTING EDGE WRITER

Road on Friday featuring EOS (Evolution Of Sound), The Kinected, and Pages & The Out of Hand Band. There will be free beer, music and other prizes. Founded by Jon Kowalsky, Studio120’s main goal is to promote local independent music. “To us, it’s all about getting great music to people and having fun,” Kowalsky said. Studio120 launched this past September and has established itself by involving well-known indie artists and connecting them with their fans. Kowalsky said the ultimate goal of Studio120 “is to help get music lovers all the best music from independent artists.” Kowalsky aims to build relationships with his artists as Studio120 continues to expand. “Our main objective is to help promote great independent music so that us music lovers can listen to songs other than ‘Call Me Maybe’ for the millionth time on the radio,” he said. Kowalsky also manages the band EOS and described them as “an awesome blend between Incu-

bus and Ben Harper.” Dewitt Clark, the lead vocalist for EOS, started writing songs back in 2009 and put his current band together shortly after. He said he is passionate about his work because the music is important to him on a personal level. “It gives me an outlet where I can really express what I’m feeling,” Clark said. He hopes his group’s creative efforts will help them find success. “The band’s going to take its own course, I just want us to play in front of more crowds,” he said. “Each member of our band knows where we can go with this, it’s just a matter of doing what’s necessary to get there.” Clark and EOS are looking forward to Studio120’s first show. “Of course, I’m excited about Friday’s show, I expect it to be packed and one heck of a show,” he said. The band is excited to play at Tobacco Road, describing it is as one of the top five venues the band has played at. “Tobacco Road is great because of the reputation they’ve created for themselves,” he said.

PROFILE

Connecticut native launches yacht-inspired clothing line BY ALEXANDER GONZALEZ ASSISTANT EDITOR

Before leaving his political science class, senior Chris Uscinski receives updates on his phone about his Connecticut-based yacht company, while checking the status of the next shipment of his clothing line. Uscinski, 22, developed Salt Pond Co. this past summer, offering preppy attire that is reminiscent of his experiences at the yacht harbor in Block Island, R.I. “The prototype of the shirts sold out,” he said. “I try to get into any business opportunities, if it works.” The clothing line currently has T-shirts in blue, white and yellow, and they are representative of the harbor’s nautical feel. Each shirt costs $20 and can be ordered through the company’s Facebook page. “The shirts have spread a lot by word of mouth,” he said. Uscinski manages Salt Pond with his business partner Sands Payne, who works from Block Island. Payne has worked about 20 years in retail, buying clothing and distributing them in his stores. Salt Pond is the first time he is developing a logo and brand that “is not specific to any region,” he said.

“I wanted the logo to encompass the marina at Block Island but be more general and apply to anywhere else,” Payne said. “The shirts are not so specific like a tourist’s.” Uscinski is grateful to have Payne at the company’s headquarters to help balance the pressure of two companies and schoolwork. “Payne is the dock owner’s son,” Uscinski said. “I needed a partner to help with retail. It can be hard to sometimes have a school life.” Salt Pond has sold more than 19 dozen shirts and will offer polo shirts, pants, belts and ties later this year, according to Payne and Uscinski. They also said they hope the shirts can be introduced to local retailers in Rhode Island and specialty stores. The duo hopes to expand the business along the East Coast. “It takes a lot of work, but I am ambitious when it comes to these opportunities,” he said. A Clinton Beach, Conn., native, Uscinski began exploring entrepreneurship when he was 16 years old, starting Boater’s Buddy, a yacht management company. Boater’s Buddy maintains yachts by providing interior and exterior cleaning, gas fillups, and linen and grocery services. The company has grown to include two more locations

MUSIC REVIEW

Timberlake suits up for comeback BY NICKY DIAZ COPY CHIEF

Seven years and five blockbusters later, Justin Timberlake is back in the game. After a dramatic three-day countdown on his official website, Timberlake released “Suit and Tie” – a preview of his upcoming third studio album, “The 20/20 Experience.” Although the song isn’t making much of a statement, people are still talking and that’s what counts. It may not be what fans expected after so much anticipation. But if I know JT like I think I do, it’ll get better. It seems like most artists today are releasing mediocre tracks to debut their albums. Maybe JT is just following the trend. The lyrics – written by Timberlake, Timbaland, Shawn Carter, J-Roc and James Fauntleroy – aren’t earth-shattering: “I can’t wait ‘til I get you on the floor, good-looking/Going out so hot just like an oven.” But JT’s vocals shine, as they always do. The slow, swanky beat reminds me of “What Goes Around … Comes Around” and “Cry Me A River” with a jazzy twist. The track won’t blow your mind, but you’ll definitely be rocking your body to it – see what I did there? Jay-Z is thrown on the track – quite liter10

ally … his verse seems out of place. It throws off the smooth R&B vibe Timberlake sets in the first three minutes of the song. But let’s get real, Jay-Z can’t ruin anything. Overall, it’s a great transition from “FutureSex/LoveSounds” to “The 20/20 Experience.” Expectations were set high and Timberlake delivered – or at least he tried. Based on the buzz that surrounded this track, it is safe to say that the singer is still a triple-threat. It’s impossible not to enjoy his dance beats and falsetto. Critics step aside because JT is back.

MEN’S BASKETBALL

Canes undefeated in ACC after 60-59 win over Eagles Miami to host Duke Wednesday BY PATRICK RILEY STAFF WRITER

ZACH BEEKER // STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER GETTING SOME AIR: Senior guard Durand Scott sinks a basket during the Canes’ 68-59 win over Maryland on Sunday. The win gave Miami a 3-0 record in the ACC.

Heading into the season, the expectations were high for the Hurricanes men’s basketball team. The team is certainly looking to live up to them. In what turned out to be a game that came down to the wire, the Canes were able to hold off the Boston College Eagles 60-59 to pick up their fourth ACC win and extend their winning streak to five. With North Carolina State losing to Maryland, the Canes now are first in the ACC, sporting a still-spotless 4-0 record. It certainly wasn’t pretty Sunday night at the Bank United Center when Miami (12-3, 3-0) beat Maryland 5447 to improve their ACC record to 3-0, but in the end the Hurricanes came through and the reward was the best start to league play since Miami joined the ACC in 2004-2005. Both teams struggled offensively, especially in the first half, with Miami leading 19-14 at halftime. The visiting Terps, who averaged 76.7 points per game (fourth in the ACC) coming into Sunday’s game, went 0-6 from beyond the arc while the Canes missed all four of their free throws and only had five assists in the first half. “When we went into halftime coach L told us that we were playing pretty much one-on-one basketball,” sophomore point guard Shane Larkin said. “We weren’t sharing the basketball and that’s a huge thing in basketball, to share the ball, get everybody involved. And I think in the second half we were just driving, kicking, feeding the bigs, cutting to the basket and when everybody started touching the ball we just had a better second half scoring the basketball.” Larkin left his mark on the game with 10 points, four rebounds, six assists and no turnovers, but it was timeJan. 17 - Jan. 20, 2013

ly buckets by redshirt senior center Julian Gamble and clutch free throws by senior guard Trey McKinney Jones that sealed the deal down the stretch. Gamble would finish with eight points, nine rebounds and four blocks while McKinney Jones added 12 points, eight rebounds and a game-high seven assists. Senior center Kenny Kadji was the leading scorer for the Canes with 14, carrying the load offensively with fellow senior center Reggie Johnson still out with a broken thumb. The Canes’ defense was suffocating the Terps, at times holding them scoreless for stretches of four or five minutes. But both teams were physical in what Maryland head coach Mark Turgeon described as a “slugfest” and a “heavyweight fight.” Head coach Jim Larranaga, who earned his 500th career win eight days earlier against Georgia Tech, agreed. “It was a very physical, very aggressive game and it’s hard to score when guys [are] fighting you so hard, not leaving you any room to work,” he said. “You know, what players like is separation, space. If they don’t get that space, they’re not quite as comfortable. And both teams did a great job of playing that kind of defense.” In Maryland, the Canes have now beaten yet another quality opponent, adding to their already impressive resume: Miami ranks fifth in RPI (Ratings Percentage Index) according to ncaa.com and first in strength of schedule according to ESPN.com. The Hurricanes also received nine votes in the AP poll and eight in the USA TODAY poll. But even with the best ACC start in program history, Larranaga tries to keep his players grounded. “Basically it means we have 15 more games,” he said. “You know, it’s very, very early in the conference race. Anything can happen.” The team now has a week to prepare for No. 3 Duke, who the Hurricanes will take on in the BankUnited Center on Wednesday night. THE MIAMI HURRICANE

GRAPHIC BY MARIAH PRICE

Jan. 17 - Jan. 20, 2013

The Hurricanes women’s basketball season has reached its midpoint. There is certainly a different look to the 2012 squad, as superstar guards Shenise Johnson and Riquna Williams graduated last May and were drafted in the first round of the WNBA draft. However, coach Katie Meier’s club has not only remained competitive, but has actually been quite successful. The Canes currently sit at 12-4 on the season, including a 3-2 record in ACC play. The team has been in the top 25 a few different times, but is currently unranked, yet receiving votes after losing its last two games. Those defeats both came on the road by 20-plus points against ranked foes. Miami fell to No. 10 Maryland and followed that up with a loss to then-No. 18 Florida State three days later. Before the two-game losing streak, UM had won 10 of its last 11 games. That included a 3-0 start in ACC play, as the Canes knocked off North Carolina State, Clemson and Virginia, all at the BankUnited Center. The first two of those wins were by 20-plus. The highlight of the season so far was a victory against Penn State in the ACC-Big Ten Challenge on Nov. 29. The Lions came to the BUC ranked No. 6 in the nation, but fell 69-65 for the team’s first loss of the season. PSU is currently 13-2 and ranked No. 8 in both polls. The win over the Lions came just 11 days after Miami hosted Tennessee, arguably the most prestigious program in the sport. UM lost 79-67 after a valiant comeback attempt fell short, snapping a 41-game home winning streak. Miami is currently in a three-way tie with Florida State and Virginia for fourth place in the ACC and has a few big games remaining. That includes a pair of contests against No. 4 Duke, the only undefeated team in the country. The home game against the Blue Devils will be on Feb. 28 and is Miami’s last game at the BUC this season. Miami looks to be the fifth best team in the ACC, but with those games against Duke, UNC and FSU, the squad will have ample opportunity to improve its standing. From an individual standpoint, seniors Stefanie Yderstrom and Morgan Stroman have emerged as the team’s go-to players. Yderstrom, a 5-foot-8-inch guard, leads the team in points (13.3) and assists (2.6) per game. The Canes return to the BankUnited Center on Thursday to take on Georgia Tech beginning at 7:05 p.m.
