...Black people can be the most conservative, the most discriminating," says West. "Especially among ourselves. It wasn't white people who said all black men have to wear baggy jeans." Bougie is a common African-American term for middle class; it is not used kindly. West--who has a habit of beginning sentences with the preamble, "Rappers say this all the time," as if he were not one of the world's most popular rappers but a kid deconstructing one--is quite bougie...
...DIED. RICHARD DOLL, 92, one of the first scientists to link cigarette smoking to lung cancer; in Oxford, England. The epidemiologist's 1949 findings, based on patient surveys at 20 hospitals in London, showed smoking to be the one habit consistent among the disparate population, leading to more definitive studies. Last year he published the final report in a half-century-long study by a group of British doctors, finding that continual smoking reduced life expectancy by 10 years, but that stopping, even late in life, could significantly improve...

...then the Baltimore Symphony came calling. Alsop was seen as new blood and a new direction: she's only 48, young for a conductor at this level. She's funny and approachable--she has a habit of chatting informally to audiences from the podium--and she has been known to moonlight (on the violin) with a swing band. She can handle the warhorses of the repertoire--she just recorded Brahms' Symphony No. 1 with the London Philharmonic--but she also champions living American composers like Philip Glass. She can even be heard, on occasion, to utter the phrase way cool...
