...moneymaking dreams (as in Chris Moneymaker, the unknown online player who inspired many a poker habit by capturing the $2.5 million World Series of Poker prize in 2003). But for women, there's the added appeal of having a great time while smashing through a gender barrier. "When you beat guys, it's a rush," says Gloria Tsang, 32, a Los Angeles nurse who took up poker three years ago. "I can play with these boys. I can hang with them...
Mike Wallace, 87, honed his style in the 1950s on Night Beat, where the host, cigarette smoke swirling in the air, grilled the guest on a dimly lit set. In 1968, he joined a new show called 60 Minutes, and helped change TV journalism forever.

...guest appearances are also less impressive than they should be given such a pedigree of talent. Talib’s rhymes on reminisce-fest “Old School” is decent, but the sunny beat feels more appropriate to a Kweli album and the prominent hook feels sorely out of place on a Doom album. Atlanta legend Cee-Lo, who lends his Southern-fried crooning to “Benzi Box,” has stolen tracks from the likes of Jay-Z and Outkast with his ridiculous flow, and his rapping skills are sorely missed here...
