  • October 16, 2015 Daily Herald Chicago Cubs Like Their Options At
    October 16, 2015 Daily Herald Chicago Cubs like their options at top of rotation By Bruce Miles The Chicago Cubs figure they can't go wrong either way. Ten months ago, they signed left-hander Jon Lester to be their ace pitcher to start games like the opener of a championship series. Jake Arrieta, though, wasn't about to give up his title of staff ace, and he won 22 games during the regular season plus 2 more so far in the postseason. So what's a manager to do? Enjoy the best of both worlds, that's what. Cubs manager Joe Maddon announced Thursday that Lester will start Game 1 of the National League championship series Saturday with Arrieta going in Game 2. Really, it doesn't make all that much difference, as both will get two chances to help get the Cubs to the World Series. The real benefit may come from getting Arrieta an extra day of rest. "It kind of played out well," Maddon said. "I'm really comfortable with them both being starters in two games, possibly. That's what we're most comfortable with." Arrieta is far into uncharted territory as far as innings pitched goes. Including 2 starts in the postseason, he has thrown 243⅔ innings. His major-league best was 156⅔, set last year when he emerged as the ace of the Cubs' staff. In the postseason, Arrieta tossed a complete game last week in beating the Pittsburgh Pirates in the wild-card game. He looked somewhat mortal Monday in Game 3 of the division series, giving up 4 runs over 5⅔ innings.

    TUFTS UNIVERSITY EXPERIMENTAL COLLEGE SPRING 2017 COURSES ExCollege Signature Courses: Taught By Visiting Lecturers and Teaching Fellows EXP-0002-VS Losing It: Tales From Girlhood 1.0 credit, Letter-graded Wednesday, 6:00-8:30pm Simone de Beauvoir famously wrote, "One is not born, but rather becomes, a woman." If so, what does this process of becoming entail? And how do societal expectations determine what it means to come "of age" for the young girl? This course will examine works of literature, mythology, folklore, and film that depict the transition from girlhood into womanhood, paying particular attention to how differing backgrounds of race, class, sexuality, ability, and gender expression trouble a stable formula for becoming a woman. As we will find, female coming of age tales invoke a transformation that can be experienced as a loss or a death or an emergence— but one after which there is no return. Natalie Adler is currently a visiting assistant professor at Brown University in the Department of Comparative Literature and with the Pembroke Center for Teaching and Research on Women. She received her PhD in January 2016 in Comparative Literature from Brown. EXP-0005-GS Horror, Abjection, and You 1.0 credit, Letter-graded Mondays, 6:00-8:30pm What are you afraid of? What in our world is abject? After a year of creepy clowns, Zika, and rampant political fear-mongering, all of us have experienced horror on a number of levels. But how often do we think about horror's power to control us? This course will pair literature, film, advertisements, political speeches, and more with theories put forth by philosophers, psychologists, biologists, theologians, and political scientists in order to question what frightens us about our world, about our bodies, and about what lurks in the recesses of our collective psyche.
