As an avid reader of Boyd Street since its inception, I was thrilled when asked to be the Editor-in-Chief of Boyd Street/Main Street Magazine. I’m a small-town girl who went to college at the University of Oklahoma, then loved Norman so much I decided to stick around. I’ve been a resident here over 10 years now, and I’m happy to say this town keeps getting better. That’s why one of my goals as Editor-in-Chief is to focus on the aspects of Norman that make it such a great place to live, go to college and work in. With first-rate events like the Norman Music Festival and Medieval Fair, fabulous restaurants, world-class museums such as the Fred Jones Jr. Museum of Art and the Sam Noble Oklahoma Museum of Natural History, as well as community happenings like the 2nd Friday Circuit of Art, there’s always somewhere to go and something to do. So keep your eye on Boyd Street, and we’ll let you know what’s up.

Fall Gaming PreviewAs the summer drifts into the comfort of fall, we’ll take a brief look ahead to some of the biggest releases coming down the pipe in the rest of 2012.Borderlands 2 (U.S. Release: Sept. 18) On the surface, Borderlands 2 seems to be the same sort of RPG/shooter hybrid that its predecessor was, but improved by leaps and bounds. The combat has been refined, the role-playing elements have been improved and the story is considerably more fleshed out. Like the first Borderlands, it doesn’t take itself too seriously, plus it’ll be a good co-op game for those of us who have gaming friends. Get your guns ready to go back to Pandora.

Assassin’s Creed III (U.S. Release: October 30) I’ve always enjoyed the Assassin’s Creed series, but after three straight games running around the Mediterranean as Ezio Auditore, it’s nice to get a change of scenery and perspective. Playing as a half-English, half-Mohawk assassin, the player stabs and sprints his way through the Eastern Seaboard, with the American Revolution going on in the background, and even taking a ship up and down the coast to give the Redcoats something to worry about. This game looks like one you shouldn’t pass up.

Halo 4 (U.S. Release: November 6) A new trilogy begins in the Master Chief saga. 343 Industries is taking over the franchise in Bungie’s place, as they did with Halo: Reach, but so far, it seems to be a formidable addition to the franchise. Thought to be dead, he and Cortana return, this time investigating the mysterious Forerunners. The single-player is implementing more in the way of mystery and exploration than its predecessors, and the multiplayer appears to be as solid as ever. It remains to be seen how it will all turn out, but it doesn’t seem like it would be a disappointment.

Far Cry 3 (U.S. Release: December 4)Tropical vacations always seem like such a fun time ... at least until lunatics kidnap you and your friends and you have to fight for survival. Far Cry 3 has more in common with the series’ first game than the second one, in which the main character is trapped in a tropical archipelago as war explodes all around him. This game is an interesting sandbox, open-world shooter that looks to be a nice change of pace, particularly given how many first-person shooters get released in a given year. Far Cry 3 is worth looking into, though.

>> While we’re on the subject of apocalypses, let’s take a look at the beginning of the Fallout series. Set in an alternate universe where society never progressed beyond 1950s culture, and the U.S. and China started a nuclear war in 2077, Fallout involves someone leaving their vault for the first time since the war to try to repair their water supply. While journeying through post-nuclear southern California, you’ll encounter mutants, raiders, cult leaders and various shout outs to movies, TV shows and the like. While Fallout and Fallout 2 kept Interplay afloat, Fallout 3 and New Vegas were created by different companies, though the legacy remains. After all, if your game’s on display at the Smithsonian, you’re doing something right.

Retro Review // Fallout 1997

ReviewDarksiders II Action

>> Welcome to the apocalypse. Quite literally, in fact. This follow-up to the 2010 cult classic chronicles the quest of Death, one of the Four Horsemen, to clear his brother’s name for allegedly starting the atpocalypse in the first game. The game is certainly vivid in its imagery and presentation, and the combat flows very well through most of the game. That said, the game is pretty buggy, and it lacks the concise nature of the first game: there’s plenty of content to play through, but it’s all spread far too thin over a game that didn’t need to be this long. Overall, the game is a worthwhile expenditure, but it can’t get out of the shadow of its predecessor.

Greek CornerTweet your thoughts @boydstreet

By DelilahGehringer

Being GreekGetting caught up in all the glitter, rhinestones and pageantry of sorority life was something I never thought would happen to me. The rich heritage of Greek life was never founded on superficialities.

Character, academics and volunteerism were the staples which I was raised on. It made logical sense to me, after talking to many Greek alumni about how their sorority or fraternity had brought out all those good aspects of them, to go Greek. Knowing that my friendships were based on centuries of other women’s friendships was such an awe-inspiring idea.

So just a few weeks before my freshman year, I went through formal sorority recruitment and came out on the other side as a new member. The sorority I got a bid from was a group of the type of women that I had looked up to -- they were pretty, involved and as far as I could tell, genuinely cared for one another. I was excited to stand side-by-side with them in both work and play.

Yet, soon after I became a new member, I became entranced by anything that could be emblazoned with Greek letters. Slowly but surely, I became more focused on how I packaged myself as a sorority girl than on the great values my sisterhood was founded upon. Without a word said directly to me, I began thinking that I was not a “real sorority girl” if I did not wear Nike shorts and oversized t-shirts.

Since college is rumored to be the time when people develop who they are as a person, I thought this was just the road I was supposed to take. I should look like everyone and be like everyone else because they just look so happy.

What I came to find out is that they were becoming themselves. When I tried to copy everyone else’s style, I lost track of who I really was as an individual. Somehow, I still thought I was a great representation of my sorority. I mean, I dressed the part, and I would tell everyone about how much I loved my sisters. I even volunteered for lots of things! What is wrong with that? Nothing, I thought.

Until one day I woke up. I realized that I had founded my entire identity into trying to become the perfect sorority woman. The perfect sorority woman is not someone who runs around constantly blabbering on and on and on about how much they love their Greek life. The perfect sorority woman is not someone who always wears Lilly Pulitzer or Polo. The perfect sorority woman is not someone who is based on trivial things.

That is because those things are not what makes a sorority woman. Those aspects are neither bad nor good, unless someone idolizes them like I did. The things that define us are our character, our absolute and honest love for each other and how we treat people. When I embraced the fact that my values, not my outfit, was what made me a sorority girl, my experience was so much more enriching. Then, my eyes were opened to seeing more than a girl walking down the street in another sorority’s letters, but a woman who had values and principles that have been shared for centuries.

How do you embrace Greek culture and stay true to yourself?

Fun Facts about Greek life at OU:

. The all Greek GPA is 3.2, compared to an all campus GPA of 3.0.

. 66 fraternity/sorority members are presidents/chairs of other organizations.

. Fraternity/sorority members hold 1,321 executive officer positions on campus.

. Fraternity/sorority members receive more than 5,500 honors and awards annually.

. Members perform more than 8500 Individual community service hours and 20,000 group community service hours annually.

Music By MelGuapo

KOSU BRINGS LOCAL BACK TO RADIO“Public radio station partners with The Spy to create more uniquely Oklahoma experiences on-air” – Associated Press

Usually, when the letters O, S and U appear together—in that particular order—I lose interest. (This is only partially true. Stillwater isn’t a bad place to party, and they’ve got a hell of a music scene.)

Now is no time for trash talking, however. If anything, it’s time for a little humility in Norman, because Stillwater has done something for the state of Oklahoma that could potentially change the face of modern radio across the country.

Here are the facts.

KOSU is the NPR station out of Stillwater that serves Oklahoma City at 91.7FM, Tulsa at 107.5FM and Stillwater at 88.3FM. From my own personal experiences, 91.7 is (now was, as you will come to find out) the place for classical music. If you know Mel Guapo, then you know that Mel Guapo loves classical music. Soon, however, the classical music programming will be no more—or at least much less—because KOSU is joining forces with the local-centric Oklahoma City online music station, The Spy FM.

From the KOSU/The Spy press release:“The Spy has done a tremendous job of tapping into the pulse of the community to provide a vibrant venue for music genres that are completely underserved in our state,” said Kelly Burley, KOSU Director. “Through our partnership, we look forward to amplifying what The Spy does best as we create more uniquely Oklahoma experiences for public radio listeners.”

What does this mean?

It means that DJs from your own communities, playing music written and recorded by bands from your own neighborhoods, will be bringing REAL radio back to the airwaves.

If you’re a local musician, send your demos to The Oklahoma Rock Show ([email protected]). Maybe they’ll play them and maybe they won’t, but it’s best to get as much feedback as possible as soon as possible. And you can listen in and hear the kind of music other people in the state are making (airs Thursdays, from 7-9pm, on KOSU/The Spy FM at 91.7FM in Oklahoma City/Norman, or online at thespyfm.com).Maybe you’re not a musician at all. Maybe you’re just a music lover, and you’re a connoisseur of the obscure. Well, if that’s you, then let me ask you this question: what is more perfectly obscure than the Oklahoma music scene? Listen to The Oklahoma Rock Show to learn how deep the Oklahoma music scene really goes.

And that’s just one (although probably the best) example of the new shows that will be brought back to the airwaves. This is good, Oklahoma-grown radio.

KOSU will simulcast these shows from The Spy’s original online evening content:

Mondays at 8 p.m. - Freakbeat, with host Kenworth, who navigates the world of garage rock, psychedelic rock, art rock and early electronic.Thursdays at 7 p.m. - The Oklahoma Rock Show, featuring local bands from across the state with hosts Ryan LaCroix and Grace Gordon.Fridays at 7 p.m. - Juke Joint Revival, resurrecting rockabilly, hillbilly, rock and roll, jump blues and rhythm and blues with Juke Joint Jenni.Saturdays at 9 p.m. - SpyLab, a mix show of dance music ranging from house to dubstep to chill, hosted by internationally-renowned DJ and record producer Katie Wicks of Crystal Vision.Sunday at 10 a.m. - The Sunday Toaster Brunch with your host E-Roy, featuring two hours of the best reggae, dub, ska and 2tone.Tuesdays at 9 p.m. - The Night Shift with David Goad, two hours of goth.Fridays at 10 p.m. - The Blank Generation, one full hour devoted to punk.Tuesdays at 7 p.m. - You’re Welcome, Oklahoma’s only all-vinyl music show with Beau and Kellen.Friday nights at midnight – The Chrome Pony & Friends Radio Hour, an hour of weird.

By AngelaFusselman Off the CornerNew to NormanMassive Downtown is a new boutique and salon located on Main Street in the heart of Norman. All products in the store are made right here in Oklahoma, with everything from clothing to local handmade accessories. Massive Downtown grew from Kent Johnson’s Massive Graphics printing company, which has been a Norman business for over 25 years. Massive Downtown also consists of a stylish hair salon and Revo disc golf supplies and apparel. The Massive Downtown team looks forward to promoting local artists in giving them a place to sell their creations, all while keeping business here in our own Oklahoma economy.

Kent Johnson’s Doin’ Fine clothing company, which will be featured at Massive Downtown, sports some of the most fun and unique Oklahoma graphic shirts you can find. All their items are printed here in Norman, and the Massive Downtown team prides themselves on this fact. Doin’ Fine and Massive Downtown’s workers are able to connect with their customers and genuinely listen to their suggestions. By printing here in Norman the team has a quicker response for what the Doin’ Fine community enjoys. The Oklahoma charisma of the products really helps one have pride for our state while supporting our fellow Okies. Furthermore, Johnson is thrilled to share Revo disc golf supplies at Massive Downtown. He has been active in the disc golf community for years and was excited to make Revo a part of his store. Disc golf accessories, apparel and supplies are all available at Massive Downtown. Johnson can now share his passion of disc golf and his Doin’ Fine clothing all under one roof.

Artists all over the state are able to sell their items in Massive Downtown’s storefront. Some of the local items are beautiful handmade necklaces, earrings, vibrant decorative pillows, unique headbands and one-of-a-kind clothing. Telling the history of a handmade item to a potential customer is only half the fun of keeping with the local trend, and Massive Downtown can share those stories.

Cassie Neahring, Massive Downtown’s store manager, also hand-sews and repurposes vintage clothing to give an updated and chic look while keeping the original vintage feel. Keeping up with this year’s hot fall fashion item, she has turned outdated skirts into new, fun and trendy high-low hemmed skirts. Neahring has also been updating older dresses into must-have pieces. She works her magic on genuine older pieces and has a true passion for renewing clothing.

Running with the new craze of merging hair and fashion, Massive Downtown also boasts a hair salon run by Ashley Carman. She has been a licensed barber for over five years and is eager to manage the salon and be part of Massive Downtown’s family. It is a quaint four-chair boutique salon which offers cuts, colors, styles, blowouts and even facial waxing. They will be running a 20% off all hair services for all new clients through the month of September. The concept of salons and retail clothing merging is hitting big, and Massive Downtown doesn’t miss a beat.

The store’s soft opening was in the beginning of August and they are ready for their grand opening on September 14th in conjunction with the Norman Arts Council’s 2nd Friday Circuit of Art. They will have live music, specials, a disc golf basket drawing and art by Anthony Roberts, along with a limited run of his shirts. Roberts has done digital art for metal bands all over the world, and Massive Downtown is excited to show him some warm Okie support.

Hair, disc golf or fashion, Massive Downtown has it all. The store is welcoming and truly gets you excited about the local products and supporting our fellow Oklahomans. The Doin’ Fine clothing tag says it all, “Made in Oklahoma by Okies.” Make sure you are lookin’ fine with Doin’ Fine clothing by Kent Johnson, and stop by Massive Downtown today for your locally made jewelry and one-of-a-kind graphic tee.

Main Street goes local with new kid on the block, Massive Downtown.

Catch Coach Kay radio segments each Thursday at 8:30 am on KJ103FM in the

Morning with TJ, Janet and JRod.

Your new colorsCrimson and cream set the stage for a successful wardrobe at OU.

Welcome to Norman! If you haven’t already noticed by now, your two new fashion colors are crimson and cream!

For 117 years these two colors have become both infamous and synonymous with Norman. This city “bleeds” crimson year-round, and wherever you shop there will be no small selection of color-appropriate crimson and cream OU wear.

According to the University of Oklahoma website, Sooner colors have been crimson and cream since 1895 when Miss May Overstreet, the only female faculty member at the time, was asked to chair a committee to choose the school colors from a plethora of samples. The color committee, along with the student body, enthusiastically choose crimson and corn.

Imagine how different your wardrobe would look with crimson and CORN!

Thankfully, a hundred years ago, the local townspeople had difficulty adhering to the correct color spectrum in order to meet the demands for school pennants, banners and other decorative items. This supply and demand issue led to the gradual progression of the current official OU colors.

In recent years the colors red and white have sometimes been used interchangeably, though let it be known that Sooners know their reds, and ordinary red and ordinary white will not and does not suffice when it comes to the official crimson and cream!

The colors evolved to what are known officially today as PANTONE® 201 (crimson) and PANTONE® 468 (cream).

Year-round, but especially on game days, fans show off their Sooner spirit in crimson and cream. So, wherever you are from, you are welcome in Norman!

Remember you are in Oklahoma territory now and red, ahem, crimson, goes with everything. And, I do mean EVERYTHING! Wear it with plaid, with denim, with cowboy boots, with rhinestones and pearls!

If you’re short on the colors, head on out to any of our local shops and snag some good ol’ crimson and cream wear; dresses, shirts, skirts, ties, slippers, rain boots, belts and fine or costume jewelry. Remember another thing -- whether you are wearing crimson or cream or not, you’re in Norman now and all the wonderful citizens that comprise this special town will make a lasting impression on you.

An impression so lasting, so dear and so wonderful that whenever you move, wherever you go, no matter how far, or how long, it won’t matter because your heart will always be in Oklahoma, and you’ll always wear the colors.

And, I dare say Miss Overstreet must have known that the crimson at OU would always represent what we love about you best, your heart!

Welcome to Norman.

Is It Wrong?

You can follow chris Joseph on ...

@chrisjoseph1400 and listen to his show 360 Sports on Sports Talk 1400

from 5-7 p.M. Monday through Friday.

s I sat on my couch on the first Saturday of full college football action, watching the Ohio Bobcats take on the Penn State Nittany Lions, I was rooting for Ohio. I began to wonder,

why was I rooting for Ohio? Was it because of the trio of Oklahoma prep starts playing for the green and white (including two former Norman North stars, Tyler Tettleton and Beau Blakenship)? Was it because of everything that had happened with the whole Jerry Sandusky case? That and so much more.

The entire situation at Penn State has been one of the biggest scandals to hit college football, and many Penn State fans turned their backs on what a big issue it was to ask, “Why is our football team being punished?” They just don’t get it. This was more than about football and the team in blue and white. A team that put blue ribbons on their helmets and names on the back of their jerseys for the first time … all pitiful attempts to smooth things over. Now don’t get me wrong, I commend the young men that chose to stay in Happy Valley and play out their career, but shame on the fans that spouted hate and death threats to those who chose to leave the program to do what was best for themselves.

Justin Brown, now here at the University of Oklahoma, received death threats via Twitter, and then the classy fans of the Lions

turned their hat towards me and let me know how much they thought of guys who left their beloved program, how they turned their back on this team … just as the higher ups in the program turned their backs on the events that had been going on there for years.

So yes, I was cheering for Ohio and when the final buzzer sounded and the Bobcats had defeated Penn State, I felt no sorrow for the fans; no disrespect meant for the team and coaches who have a mountain to climb this entire year and for the foreseeable future, but it felt good to cheer for Ohio. Will Penn State ever get back to what it was at one point on the landscape of college football? Probably. However, it may not be for the next decade or so and I can only hope that the fans finally figure out that this was about more than football.

For now I will have no problem in admitting that I will be rooting for the fans of Penn State to suffer many more defeats so they can understand what the real issue is here.
