The Oberlin Review · York, PA
Last weekend men’s basketball kicked off their season, competing in the third annual Oberlin Tip-Off Classic, the team’s season-opening tournament. The Yeomen won their first game against Hiram College on Friday night but fell to York College of Pennsylvania in the championship game on Saturday. The tournament was a much-anticipated opening number for a young team, a chance to try out new roster combinations and for the majority-underclassmen roster to gain experience before their conference season. The Yeomen dominated their game against the Terriers, leading the whole 40 minutes en route to a 77–58 final score. Second-year Noah Kim broke out offensively, notching a career-high 19 points and 4 rebounds, while fellow second-year Augustus Donohue also performed well, scoring 15 points, all via 3-pointers. The club also showed up defensively, led by second-year Sam Kamenko, the Yeomen pressured Hiram’s top shooters and established a fast and aggressive style of play.

Nearby: Conowingo, MDCONOWINGO — Fifteen people representing the Maryland Forest Service and The Nature Conservancy worked together Tuesday to conduct a controlled burn of 18 acres of land known as The Serpentine Barrens along Old Conowingo Road.Chase McLean was the Fire Boss for this operation.“Based on the immediate fire effects, it appears that we were able to meet our ecological objectives for the burn, although the real results won’t show until next growing season,” McLean said. “Everyone remained safe and we did not have any incidents during the operation. Fire plays a vital role in the Serpentine Barrens ecosystem, and this burn will help us to enhance and maintain the health and resilience of this unique site.”Deborah Landau, director of ecological restoration for The Nature Conservancy, was also happy with the results.“The burn was 18 acres, took about four hours, and was a complete success,” Landau said.

Nearby: Denver, PADemocrats received the message loud and clear from the midterm elections that Americans want results, not “shallow litmus tests,” as Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro put it at a conference in Denver this week. But it was evident that Democrats, who gathered at a summit on the way forward as they take control of the House and Senate next year, are still working out just how to achieve those results while President Trump is still in the White House. Shapiro helped Democrats flip four House seats in his state, and he spoke after an election that delivered decisive majorities to Democrats in the Senate and the House. He said voters had rejected “chaos” and “corruption” and are demanding results-focused governance. Shapiro urged congressional Democrats to focus on lowering costs, building affordable housing, protecting consumers and expanding economic opportunity — and not on ideological fights.

Nearby: Baltimore, MDOn November 1, 1864, Maryland ended slavery by its own hand. The Emancipation Proclamation had passed over the state because it applied only to Confederate territory and Maryland was a Union state. It took a new state constitution, narrowly approved with the help of soldiers’ ballots, to free roughly 87,000 enslaved Marylanders. Some of the freed people celebrated that day. Many others had to build a life from nothing. I think about those people when I’m standing over a stove. I grew up in Baltimore watching my grandmother cook from scratch in a small kitchen. I learned there that quality ingredients are the foundation of great food. Over a career of more than 35 years, I have added a second lesson to the first: ingredients carry history too. I’ve said many times before that moving forward requires reaching back, and that you have to know your history before you can go on. Enslaved cooks in Maryland worked with what they were handed and what they could secretly grow.
