Medical student receives<lb />

HUANG<lb />
Long list of past<lb />
achievements win<lb />
her award<lb />
KRISTIN DAY<lb />
ASSISTANT NEWS EDITOR<lb />
Angela Chia-Mei Huang<lb />
became the first ECU student to<lb />
receive the Herbert W, Nickens<lb />
Medical Student Scholarship, a<lb />
$5,000 award from the Associa-<lb />
tion of American Medical Col-<lb />
leges offered to medical students.<lb />
Huang, a third-year-student<lb />
at the Brody School of Medicine,<lb />
said it's hard to identify one<lb />
project that won her the scholar-<lb />
ship, but she thinks it might be<lb />
due to the consistency of all her<lb />
past projects.<lb />
"I have always tried to con-<lb />
sider how to understand and<lb />
improve the lives of vulnerable<lb />
and marginalized populations<lb />
said Huang.<lb />
"I think it shows in the activi-<lb />
ties that I am interested in<lb />
Huang began showing inter-<lb />
est in the medical profession at<lb />
an early age. In high school, she<lb />
was active in her school's chapter<lb />
of the Red Cross Youth serving<lb />
as president of the organization<lb />
during her senior year. While<lb />
studying at Duke University,<lb />
Huang created the Duke Red<lb />
Cross, which she is still active in<lb />
at the university, because she said<lb />
she missed working with the Red<lb />
Cross Youth.<lb />
Huang received a Bachelor of<lb />
Science in biology and a Bachelor<lb />
of Arts in economics from Duke<lb />
and then earned her master's in<lb />
public health in maternal and<lb />
child health at UNC-Chapel Hill.<lb />
Between college and the master's<lb />
program, Huang worked in Wash-<lb />
ington, D.C. first as an intern<lb />
at Families USA, a non-profit<lb />
health care consumer advocacy<lb />
group and then as a performance<lb />
improvement analyst at the Hos-<lb />
pital for Sick Children.<lb />
These early experiences work-<lb />
ing in the nation's capital taught<lb />
her there were educated people in<lb />
the United States, not in political<lb />
office, who advocated on behalf<lb />
of all Americans.<lb />
"It proved to me that you<lb />
can dedicate your life to helping<lb />
others and make a difference<lb />
Huang said.<lb />
Her work with the hospital<lb />
also quickly proved to be edu-<lb />
cational to her personal prefer-<lb />
ences, where she learned she<lb />
would rather work directly with<lb />

Winter social, grand opening<lb />
McLellan Building draws crowd<lb />
Bowers shares his<lb />
vision for downtown<lb />
KRISTIN DAY<lb />
ASSISTANT NEWS EDITOR<lb />
Uptown Greenville's winter<lb />
social and grand opening of the<lb />
renovated Historic McLellan's<lb />
Building last night was complete<lb />
with free food, drinks, harp<lb />
music and promising prospects<lb />
for the city.<lb />
Greenville residents struggled<lb />
through crowds that packed each<lb />
new business of the building<lb />
including Via Cappuccino, the<lb />
Tipsy Teapot, Just Yoga and the<lb />
Uptown 409 Visual Arts Studio.<lb />
Eric Clark, president of<lb />
Uptown Greenville, said in the last<lb />
two years many businesses have<lb />
opened or began renovation which<lb />
contributes to improvement of the<lb />
area including the Pirate Radio<lb />
building, Evolve and Wavelength.<lb />
He said the Proctor Hotel is<lb />
also making a successful transi-<lb />
tion and Jefferson's is moving<lb />
into the Blount Harvey building.<lb />
City Hall is still under expansion<lb />
and renovation, and Senator Eliz-<lb />
abeth Dole is opening an office<lb />
on downtown Evans Street.<lb />
City Manager Wayne Bowers<lb />
said he's had a lot of experience<lb />
working in other uptown areas<lb />
and thinks Greenville will be<lb />
successful in completing renova-<lb />
tion projects.<lb />

'Dear American Soldiers'<lb />

GINGER VEREEN<lb />
STAFF WRITER<lb />
A campaign has begun<lb />
to spread throughout college<lb />
campuses across the United<lb />
States entitled "Dear Ameri-<lb />
can Soldier geared to allow<lb />
college students to thank<lb />
American soldiers fighting<lb />
overseas.<lb />
"Dear American Soldier<lb />
which began Christmas<lb />
morning, strives to get every<lb />
American to send one e-mail<lb />
to an American soldier. The<lb />
campaign also encourages<lb />
students to write letters of<lb />
appreciation to families of<lb />
fallen soldiers.<lb />
The idea for this cam-<lb />
paign was sparked when inde-<lb />
pendent filmmaker Aaron<lb />
Mighty, producer of the<lb />
Dear American Soldier film,<lb />
began the idea as a docu-<lb />
mentary which quickly led to<lb />
the idea of the letter writing<lb />
campaign that has just<lb />
recently begun to spread to the<lb />
college scene.<lb />
Alex Dougal, organizer of<lb />
media relations, agreed to work<lb />
with Mighty. On Christmas Eve,<lb />
Dougal sent press releases to<lb />
countless national newspapers.<lb />
These press releases encouraged<lb />
Americans to take a few minutes<lb />
on Chrtstmas morning to wiite a<lb />
simple thank you to a soldier.<lb />
The original goal was to<lb />
collect 1,000 ir-mails in<lb />
a month's time. On Christ-<lb />
mas morning they received<lb />
more than 500 e-mails<lb />
surpassing their expecta-<lb />
tions. The new goal has<lb />
been raised to top 5,000 in<lb />
a two month time period.<lb />
"We feel that college<lb />
students have really stepped<lb />
up to take time out of their<lb />
day to thank these soldiers.<lb />
Their simple letters.are and will<lb />
continue to be greatly appreci-<lb />
ated said Dougal.<lb />
The e-mails will be collected<lb />
over the course of the next<lb />
two months. Once received to<lb />
the "Dear American Soldier"<lb />
database, letters will take five to<lb />
seven days to reach the hands of<lb />
soldiers overseas.<lb />
Dougal has collected more<lb />
tt<lb />
Dear<lb />
Soldiers<lb />
To get Involved visit:<lb />
dearamerlcansoldlers.com<lb />
than 300 names and addresses<lb />
of soldiers overseas from<lb />
national newspapers. Dougal<lb />
and Mighty plan to collaborate<lb />
with many other letter-writing<lb />
organizations from all over the<lb />
country.<lb />
"Every letter that is sent is<lb />
greatly appreciated. We have<lb />
to let the troops know that the<lb />
whole country is behind them<lb />
Dougal said.<lb />
With the upcoming elec-<lb />
tions in Iraq thousands<lb />
of troops are being sent<lb />
overseas. They will be there for<lb />
at least six months or longer.<lb />
"These men and women are<lb />
away from their families, and<lb />
away from their friends. If one<lb />
e-mail can make a difference I<lb />
think America owes it to them<lb />
Dougal said.<lb />

City Manager Wayne Bowers talked about the importance of renovating downtown Greenville.<lb />
the country, the focus of the<lb />
community was downtown in the<lb />
mid 1900s, but after people could<lb />
afford to buy cars and move, they<lb />
left the inner city area.<lb />
Bowers said the good news for<lb />
Greenville is the people have real-<lb />
ized the need to build the uptown<lb />
area back to what it once was.<lb />
"People remember the great<lb />
downtowns said Bowers.<lb />
"The heart of the city is down-<lb />
town. If you have a defective<lb />
heart it's going to affect all the<lb />
other parts<lb />
Another reason Bowers said<lb />
the area is important is that it will<lb />
improve the tax base.<lb />
Bowers said the key to a suc-<lb />
cessful transition is patience and<lb />
a partnership between the gov-<lb />
ernment and private sector. He<lb />
said Mayor Don Parrott, the city<lb />
council and uptown Greenville<lb />
are committed to the plan.<lb />
Tony Breuer leased the space<lb />
for the visual arts studio and<lb />
shared an interest in all the new<lb />
businesses working together. He<lb />
said the event was a celebration of<lb />
the coming together of these four<lb />
places, what he called "a micro<lb />
community<lb />
The goal of his studio is to<lb />
create an environment where<lb />
artists will be able to come and<lb />
work together.<lb />
"When artists work together they<lb />
learn and they grow said Breuer.<lb />
Breuer said members of the<lb />
community would be abletogointo<lb />
the studio while the artists work.<lb />

Tuition increase in line<lb />
with other UNC institutions<lb />
Increases would benefit<lb />
faculty, students<lb />
JONATHAN CROCKER<lb />
STAFF WRITER<lb />
ECU'S proposed tuition<lb />
increase, geared toward improv-<lb />
ing faculty retention and com-<lb />
petitiveness, financial aid and<lb />
other student services is in line<lb />
with increases with universities<lb />
throughout the UNC system and<lb />
nation.<lb />
"Tuition is increasing across<lb />
the country said Chuck Hawkins,<lb />
interim vice chancellor of admin-<lb />
istration and finance.<lb />
"All UNC schools are pro-<lb />
posing a tuition increase of<lb />
10 - 15 percent<lb />
Hawkins said even with the<lb />
increase, ECU is still a bargain<lb />
for both in-state and out-of-<lb />
state students.<lb />
Hawkins said the increase<lb />
would allow ECU to improve<lb />
faculty retention and recruit-<lb />
ment with the largest part of the<lb />
increase going toward increasing<lb />
faculty salaries.<lb />
The proposed tuition increase<lb />
is $300 for the next academic<lb />
year and would generate $5.7<lb />
million. Thirty percent would go<lb />
toward student financial aid.<lb />
Academic advising is another<lb />
program that would receive<lb />
funding.<lb />
"This increase will not allow<lb />
more scholarships, however, it<lb />
will go toward need-based finan-<lb />
cial aid Hawkins said.<lb />
Hawkins said it is necessary to<lb />
raise the tuition to provide com-<lb />
petitive wages for teachers. Other<lb />
institutions are able to pay their<lb />
professors better wages and with<lb />
the increase, ECU will be able to<lb />
match those school systems.<lb />
If ECU does not undergo a<lb />
tuition increase, then it would be<lb />
limited as to how far it would be<lb />
able to excel.<lb />
"Without the proposed<lb />
increase, some programs already<lb />
scheduled to take place will have<lb />
to be cancelled Hawkins said.<lb />
With other UNC school sys-<lb />
tems also proposing tuition<lb />
increases, our proposal will likely<lb />
not affect students from attend-<lb />
ing ECU.<lb />
Aside from private donations,<lb />
tuition is a major part of how<lb />
universities are funded.<lb />
Hawkins said these increases<lb />
would benefit the school in<lb />
helping it to provide excellent<lb />
services to its students and the<lb />
community. With competitive<lb />
wages for teachers and more<lb />
financial aid available, ECU will<lb />
be more accessible to those who<lb />
may not have otherwise been able<lb />
to attend college.<lb />
Chad Hicks, senior account-<lb />
ing major, said he's glad this is<lb />
his last year at ECU.<lb />
"It seems like tuition is going<lb />
up every semester and before you<lb />
know it, school will simply be<lb />
unaffordable to those who do not<lb />
receive scholarships or financial<lb />
aid said Hicks.<lb />
Hicks said he feels the increase<lb />
may benefit the school and its<lb />
students and could be an overall<lb />

Project ACT Plus to ensure<lb />
increased qualified teachers<lb />
New program launched<lb />
to attract math,<lb />
science teachers<lb />
AMBER PAYNE<lb />
STAFF WRITER<lb />
ECU'S College of Education<lb />
changed the route of entry to a<lb />
program with greater require-<lb />
ments designed to put better-<lb />
educated teachers into math and<lb />
science classrooms.<lb />
Formerly, programs such as<lb />
NC Teach and Project ACT desig-<lb />
nated requirements for teachers,<lb />
but members of ECU's faculty<lb />
felt these requirements did not<lb />
demand enough from prospec-<lb />
tive educational instructors.<lb />
ParmaLee Hawk, former direc-<lb />
tor of teacher education, was on<lb />
the committee that started Proj-<lb />
ect ACT.<lb />
"We need better quality<lb />
teachers in our school system<lb />
said Hawk.<lb />
Ann Bullock with the college<lb />
of education came up with an<lb />
idea on how to ensure quality<lb />
teachers within the school system<lb />
with a program titled Project<lb />
ACT Plus.<lb />
The program, geared toward<lb />
math and science teachers, entails<lb />
the same requirements as Project<lb />
ACT, but teachers must have cer-<lb />
tified training in their course of<lb />
teaching.<lb />
"There is a critical shortage<lb />
in math and science teachers<lb />
said Bullock.<lb />
Bullock said not only do they<lb />
want to place more teachers in<lb />
the schools, but also "to place<lb />
more qualified teachers<lb />
Programs have been set<lb />
up in Johnston and Onslow<lb />
counties and at ECU for lateral<lb />
teachers to gain experience in<lb />
teaching, but the coursework<lb />
can be completed online. The<lb />
program involves teachers<lb />
from all over the state includ-<lb />
ing Raleigh, Durham and<lb />
surrounding cities. Each teacher<lb />
will need 18 - 24 hours of math<lb />
and science coursework and<lb />
the cost ranges between $2,500<lb />
and $3,000.<lb />
Bullock has funded Project<lb />
ACT Plus through financial assis-<lb />
tance. The Karen and Christopher<lb />
Payne Foundation is a non-profit<lb />
organization that gives money<lb />
for educational purposes. They<lb />
granted Bullock $10,000 to start<lb />
the program. Progress Energy is<lb />
another large contributor.<lb />
"it is important for each child<lb />
to have a good teacher Bullock<lb />
said.<lb />
"Project ACT Plus will help<lb />
provide more quality teachers in<lb />
areas of math and science<lb />
NC Teach was the original<lb />
program that recruits, prepares<lb />
and supports mid-career profes-<lb />
sionals as they enter the teaching<lb />
profession. English, science, social<lb />
studies and mathematics are the<lb />
subject areas NC Teach provides<lb />
within the high schools.<lb />

Principal admits selling<lb />
equipment to pay for cocaine<lb />
HILLSBOROUGH, NC - A former<lb />
middle school principal acknowledged<lb />
Monday that he stole electronic<lb />
equipment from the school so that<lb />
he could sell them for money to fuel<lb />
his cocaine habit.<lb />
Grant O. Norfleet, 34, of Greensboro,<lb />
had been charged with embezzlement<lb />
for failing to return the equipment he<lb />
checked out from Guy B. Phillips<lb />
Middle School in the Chapel Hill-<lb />
Carrboro school system. He pleaded<lb />
guilty in Orange County District Court<lb />
to misdemeanor larceny, a lesser<lb />
charge.<lb />
He received a 30-day suspended<lb />
sentence and was placed on one<lb />
year of unsupervised probation. He<lb />
also was ordered to perform 72<lb />
hours of community service, to pay<lb />
restitution to the Chapel Hill-Carrboro<lb />
school district and to stay off school<lb />
property for one year.<lb />
Norfleet was principal of Phillips<lb />
Middle School for about three<lb />
years before resigning abruptly in<lb />
May. Norfleet said he left Phillips to<lb />
participate in a 28-day treatment<lb />
program for cocaine addiction.<lb />
The embezzlement charge arose<lb />
when a district employee found<lb />
receipts in Norfleet's old desk that<lb />
showed he had pawned a laptop<lb />
computer, a television and a VCR in<lb />
Greensboro. According to police, the<lb />
items were valued at $1,550.<lb />
Norfleet's final paycheck with the<lb />
district was docked to cover part of<lb />
the cost of the stolen items, said Kim<lb />
Hoke, school spokeswoman.<lb />
Norfleet was apologetic in court<lb />
Monday and said he valued his<lb />
career with the school district.<lb />
"I had 14 really good years in<lb />
education and one really bad year<lb />
he said. "I succumbed to a lot of the<lb />
stresses that administrators face on<lb />

3-year-old assaulted at day care<lb />
CHAPEL HILL, NC - Police have<lb />
found evidence that a 3-year-old girl<lb />
was sexually assaulted and juvenile<lb />
petitions have been filed against<lb />
three young boys, authorities said.<lb />
The mother of the girl reported to<lb />
Chapel Hill police Jan. 5 that she<lb />
thought her child had been sexually<lb />
assaulted while at the Wilson Day<lb />
Care Center, an in-home child-care<lb />
center.<lb />
The girl was examined at UNC<lb />
Hospitals, and police found evidence<lb />
she had been assaulted, said Jane<lb />
Cousins, police spokeswoman.<lb />
Juvenile petitions for attempted first-<lb />
degree rape were issued against<lb />
three boys, two 11-year-olds and a<lb />
12-year-old. The operator of the day-<lb />
care center, Etta Doris Wilson, 67,<lb />
was charged with contributing to the<lb />
delinquency of a minor.<lb />
Wilson is scheduled to appear Feb.<lb />
7 in Orange County District Court.<lb />
Wilson's license to operate a day care<lb />
was suspended Jan. 14 pending an<lb />
investigation, according to the state<lb />
Division of Child Development.<lb />
Wilson, who has been running her<lb />
day care for about 15 years, said none<lb />
of the children involved in the incident<lb />
were enrolled in her day care.<lb />
She said she was watching the 3-<lb />
year-old for a family friend. The two<lb />
11-year-old boys are relatives of hers<lb />
and the 12-year-old is their friend,<lb />
she said.<lb />

Larceny Is the number one crime on<lb />
campus and It can take less than<lb />
five seconds to occur. Never leave<lb />
your personal Items unattended<lb />
for any period of time. Do not carry<lb />

and only carry as many as you need.<lb />
Also, consider not endorsing your<lb />
credit cards. If there Is no signature<lb />

your credit card has been stolen,<lb />
notify the company and the police<lb />

During graduate school,<lb />
Huang helped coordinate the<lb />
School of Public Health's annual<lb />
Minority Health Conference,<lb />
serving as a moderator at the<lb />
conference's meetings. Addition-<lb />
ally, Huang had the opportunity<lb />
to travel to Africa to evaluate an<lb />
HIVAIDS mitigation program for<lb />
children orphaned by AIDS.<lb />
"Working with Save the Chil-<lb />
dren in Malawi was one of the<lb />
most eye-opening experiences of<lb />
my life Huang said.<lb />
"it made me realize how<lb />
much we take for granted even<lb />
the most basic necessities of our<lb />
lives everyday<lb />
Huang also created a Web site<lb />
concerning international issues<lb />
with women and aging. From<lb />
this, she took an opportunity to<lb />
give a presentation at the U.N.<lb />
Second World Assembly on Aging<lb />
in Spain as a representative of<lb />
UNC and the Gray Panthers, an<lb />
organization of intergeneration<lb />
activists. Adding to her long<lb />
list of accomplishments, Huang<lb />
also received a North Carolina<lb />
Schweitzer fellowship while in<lb />
graduate school.<lb />
"It was a great opportunity to<lb />
work closely with a transitional<lb />
homeless program in Durham and<lb />
to help in identifying their health<lb />
education needs Huang said.<lb />
in her first year of medical<lb />
school, Huang served as diver-<lb />
sity representative to her class<lb />
where she initiated the first cul-<lb />
tural competency book club,<lb />
which involved both faculty<lb />
members and students. Huang<lb />
convinced the publisher of<lb />
one of the books they read to<lb />
donate SO books to the club.<lb />
Twenty-eight-year-old Huang<lb />
heard about the Nickens scholar-<lb />
ship through a listserv from the<lb />
school of medicine. As a require-<lb />
ment, a dean from the nominee's<lb />
home school must nominate the<lb />
student. She said Dean Randall<lb />
Renegar nominated her with help<lb />
from Virginia Hardy.<lb />
Huang said she will use the<lb />
money to pay for tuition, but<lb />
there is a group of medical stu-<lb />
dents throughout the country,<lb />
including herself, who are raising<lb />
money to travel to Kenya and<lb />
work in clinics this summer.<lb />
Currently, Huang is in Cabar-<lb />
rus County for her Family Medi-<lb />
cine rotation. Six, eight-week rota-<lb />
tions are required of all third year<lb />
medical students. Huang said she<lb />
has not yet decided which medical<lb />
field she'd like to enter into once<lb />
she graduates, but she is strongly<lb />
considering either pediatrics or<lb />
child and adolescent psychiatry.<lb />
She got married in December<lb />
and said she and her husband<lb />
are very interested in volun-<lb />
teering in developing countries.<lb />
Huang grew up as one of three<lb />
children to immigrant parents<lb />
from Taipei, Taiwan. She said her<lb />
parents worked seven days a week<lb />
in a Chinese restaurant with no<lb />
health insurance and grew up in<lb />
lower middle-income housing.<lb />
"My privilege has been that<lb />
my parents really emphasized the<lb />
Importance of education to me<lb />
and my brothers Huang said.<lb />
"I believe education is a tre-<lb />
mendous gift and a responsibil-<lb />
ity. I have tried to use my educa-<lb />
tion to help others<lb />
Huang said the desire to help<lb />
others is also what made her want<lb />
to go to medical school. She felt<lb />
medicine would give her the<lb />
skills to help. The scholarship is<lb />
another accomplishment added<lb />
on to all her previous successes<lb />
I<lb />
that will help her become a doctor.<lb />
"If anything, I feel completely<lb />
honored and humbled by receiv-<lb />
ing this award Huang said.<lb />
"Dr. Nickens was a remark-<lb />
able man and I can only hope to<lb />
lead a life with as much passion<lb />
and determination<lb />
According to the AAMC Web<lb />
site for the Nickens Scholar-<lb />
ships award, this program was<lb />
designed to assist medical schools<lb />
in achieving their diversity objec-<lb />
tives and eliminating health<lb />
care inconsistencies. Five $5,000<lb />
scholarships are given to students<lb />
entering their third-year of medi-<lb />
cal school. These students must<lb />
demonstrate leadership efforts to<lb />
eliminate inequalities in medical<lb />
education and health care.<lb />
Juan Amador of the AAMC<lb />
said they are currently solic-<lb />
iting nominations for the<lb />
2005 awards. The deadline<lb />
for nominations is April 1.<lb />

In the Aug. 18-26, 2003 protest,<lb />
nearly two dozen prisoners tried to<lb />
hang or strangle themselves with<lb />
clothing and other items in their<lb />
cells, demonstrating "self-injurious<lb />
behavior the U.S. Southern Command<lb />
in Miami said in a statement. Ten<lb />
detainees made a mass attempt on<lb />
Aug. 22 alone.<lb />
Last year, there were 110 self-harm<lb />
incidents, Sumpter said.<lb />
The 23 prisoners were in steel mesh<lb />
cells and they can talk to neighbors.<lb />
It would not have been possible to<lb />
pass notes, and they are allowed to<lb />
exercise only one at a time.<lb />
Only two of the 23 were considered<lb />
suicide attempts - requiring<lb />
hospitalization and psychiatric<lb />
treatment. Officials said they<lb />
differentiated between a suicide<lb />
attempt in which a detainee could<lb />
have died without intervention, and a<lb />
"gesture" aimed at getting attention.<lb />

BAGHDAD, Iraq - A videotape<lb />

by gunmen in Baghdad pleading for<lb />
his life and appealing to Arab rulers,<lb />
including Libyan leader Moammar<lb />
Gadhafi, to intercede to spare his<lb />
life.<lb />
Roy Hallums, 56, was seized Nov. 1<lb />
along with Robert Tarongoy of the<lb />
Philippines during an armed assault<lb />
on their compound in Baghdad's<lb />
Mansour district. The two were<lb />
working for a Saudi company that<lb />
does catering for the Iraqi army. Both<lb />
are missing.<lb />
On the tape, Hallums, with a rifle<lb />
pointed at his head, stated his<lb />
name and said, "I have worked with<lb />
American forces<lb />
"I am please asking for help because<lb />
my life is in danger because it's been<lb />

he said. "I'm not asking for any help<lb />
from President Bush because I know<lb />
of his selfishness and unconcern for<lb />
those who've been pushed into this<lb />
hellhole<lb />
Hallums, speaking slowly, said he<lb />
was asking for help from "Arab<lb />
rulers especially President Moammar<lb />
Gadhafi because he's known for<lb />
helping those who are suffering<lb />
"I also ask that Arab leaders help me<lb />
in this situation so I can be released<lb />
as quickly as possible from this<lb />
definite end he added. "I would<lb />
remember this favor for the rest of my<lb />
life should my life remain and I ask my<lb />

Stampede of people<lb />
at Hindu procession kills 150<lb />
BOMBAY, India - Thousands of<lb />
Hindus panicked during a religious<lb />
procession in western India on<lb />
Tuesday, triggering a stampede that<lb />
killed at least 150 people, a local official<lb />
said. Many more people were injured.<lb />
Accounts differed as to what caused<lb />
the stampede, which happened near<lb />
the village of Wai, some 150 miles<lb />
south of Bombay, in Satara district.<lb />
Sharad Jadhav, Satara's second-<lb />
highest official, said overcrowding<lb />
caused the stampede, but police said<lb />
it was triggered by a fire.<lb />
"A fire caused by a short circuit in<lb />
a makeshift shop near the temple<lb />
created panic among the pilgrims.<lb />
Some tried to flee the area, starting<lb />
the stampede said K.K. Pathak, the<lb />
inspector-general of police in the<lb />
region. The situation grew worse<lb />
when a narrow path leading to<lb />
the temple became jammed with<lb />
pilgrims.<lb />
Jadhav said he'd been told by officials<lb />
at the scene that 150 people were killed.<lb />
More than 300,000 people are<lb />
reported to have gathered for the<lb />
Hindu festival, said A.D. Ingle, deputy<lb />
superintendent of police in the area.<lb />

WEDNESDAY January 26, 2005<lb />
Our View<lb />
Experts say having a<lb />
degree is not enough<lb />
It seems that many of us have been told at<lb />
some point, "you need to go to college so you<lb />
can get a good job<lb />
While college graduates do have more of an<lb />
advantage in the job market than those without<lb />
(people with undergraduate degrees make<lb />
almost twice as much as those with only high<lb />
school degrees), many experts conclude that<lb />
this is simply not enough.<lb />
Upon graduation, many undergraduates are<lb />
faced with what authors Alexandra Robbins<lb />
and Abby Wilner call a "quarterlife crisis" in their<lb />
book, Quarterlife Crisis: the Unique Challenges<lb />
of Life in Your Twenties.<lb />
Symptoms of the quarterlife crisis are not being<lb />
able to find a job in your desired field, stress<lb />
due to increased finances (i.e. student loans)<lb />
and even moving back in with mom and dad<lb />
(more than 60 percent of college graduates end<lb />
up living at home for at least a year).<lb />
Bill Coplin, author of Ten Things Employers<lb />
Want You to Learn in College, notes in a recent<lb />
Knight Ridder Newspapers column that "the<lb />
key to career success is to have a strong work<lb />
ethic and the skills employers want: oral and<lb />
written communication, people, research, com-<lb />
puter application, number crunching, analytical<lb />
and problem-solving skills<lb />
Coplin adds that universities don't adequately<lb />
prepare students for the real world and it is<lb />
up to the students themselves to obtain these<lb />
necessary skills.<lb />
TEC agrees with Coplin that it is never too early<lb />
to start preparing for your future. Start gaining<lb />
valuable life experiences by getting a part-time<lb />
job or spending a semester overseas. Talk with<lb />
your adviser or department secretary about<lb />
what internships and independent studies may<lb />
be offered in the upcoming semester.<lb />
There are also many campus organizations<lb />
like Student Government Association, Student<lb />
Union, etc. that need volunteers and can give<lb />
you the opportunity to gain leadership experi-<lb />

You have to be careful what you ask for<lb />
Responding to readers<lb />
at my own risk<lb />
RACHEL LANDEN<lb />
STAFF WRITER<lb />
As 1 prepare to write these words, 1<lb />
am already feeling a pang of remorse. I<lb />
can hear my dad's voice echoing in my<lb />
head, telling me never to argue with<lb />
idiots - they drag you down to their<lb />
level, then beat you with experience.<lb />
Still, I am choosing to lay it on the<lb />
line and say, at my own risk, what I<lb />
am thinking and feeling. I'm sure I<lb />
will be lambasted by some for what is<lb />
to follow but I know for a fact that if<lb />
I write another column in my typical<lb />
style, I will definitely be attacked by<lb />
some angry and bitter critics.<lb />
It is these same people who insist<lb />
that 1 have no opinion and fail to<lb />
write about anything of importance.<lb />
The funny thing is, week after week, I<lb />
thought I was doing the exact opposite<lb />
of what they accuse me.<lb />
By writing about family, friends,<lb />
the collegiate experience and daily<lb />
positive affirmations, 1 felt that I was<lb />
focusing on themes that resound with<lb />
all of us. Not everyone is interested in<lb />
or informed enough about politics,<lb />
religion, social issues and the like to<lb />
understand or appreciate discussion<lb />
on these topics. There is certainly a<lb />
need for such dialogue and I'm glad<lb />
that TEC encourages it by printing the<lb />
thoughtful opinions of Tony McKee<lb />
and Peter Kalajian.<lb />
However, writing in that manner<lb />
is not what I was asked to'do. In fact,<lb />
I was requested to avoid tackling simi-<lb />
lar issues in a manner akin to theirs.<lb />
Instead, my job is to write something<lb />
more lighthearted and entertaining,<lb />
so maybe labeling it as an opinion is<lb />
something of a misnomer. Perhaps my<lb />
column should be moved to the page<lb />
with the crossword puzzle and the<lb />
comic strips. I wouldn't be offended by<lb />
this change, just as long as my words<lb />
continue to appear in the newspaper.<lb />
After all, for better or for worse, they<lb />
do have a place in our student publi-<lb />
cation.<lb />
Even so, I am not nearly arrogant<lb />
or egotistical enough to believe that<lb />
other students at ECU could not do a V<lb />
better job than I at writing a weekly<lb />
column. It is not a matter of whether or<lb />
not they could offer something better<lb />
- the fact is that no one is offering.<lb />
Maybe the critics shouldn't be passing<lb />
judgment on me, but instead, should<lb />
be going after the students who can do<lb />
but simply choose not to.<lb />
In my opinion, it is a far worse<lb />
crime to be idle and waste your expert<lb />
talents and skills than it is to present<lb />
your own small contribution with what<lb />
humble resources you might have.<lb />
Consider this: The school of<lb />
communication at ECU continues to<lb />
rapidly grow in numbers but I have yet<lb />
to witness its effect on TEC As editor<lb />
of special sections - those pages and<lb />
inserts that are published periodically<lb />
-1 have a difficult time recruiting writ-<lb />
ers to author several articles during a<lb />
semester.<lb />
Just this week, the features editor<lb />
informed me that she would do her best<lb />
to help me recruit some staff members<lb />
to write each one of the eight articles<lb />
that I need to assign. She warned me,<lb />
however, that this would not be an easy<lb />
task as she often struggles to fill just her<lb />
section each week.<lb />
Where are the communication<lb />
majors when we need them? Most of<lb />
them aren't at the newspaper and I<lb />
can't understand why. Music majors<lb />
practice their instruments, theater<lb />
majors rehearse their lines and chem-<lb />
istry majors perform labs. Doesn't it<lb />
stand to reason that many communica-<lb />
tion majors, especially those concen-<lb />
trating in print journalism, should be<lb />
writing or editing?<lb />
The academic part of college<lb />
isn't just about attending classes.<lb />
Gaining experience and practice in<lb />
your area of interest seems just as<lb />
essential. That's what,I'm trying to do,<lb />
while simultaneously providing an<lb />
outlet for my thoughts on a page that<lb />
1 hope other students will read and<lb />
relate to.<lb />
If there are others out there who<lb />
wish to do the same, then I encour-<lb />
age them to do so. I don't write these<lb />
columns because of some illusions of<lb />
grandeur that cause me to believe that<lb />
I'm the most talented writer at ECU.<lb />
I just know I enjoy this, and because<lb />
I have made the effort, I deserve the<lb />
chance to find my successes, even<lb />
amidst my failures.<lb />
Sir Thomas Foxwell Buxton said<lb />
"with ordinary talent and extraor-<lb />
dinary perseverance, all things are<lb />
attainable<lb />
I'd like to believe this is true but I<lb />
don't actually know if one can even<lb />
win over her critics. Maybe no amount<lb />
of talent or perseverance could achieve<lb />
such a result but perhaps I can spark a<lb />
little bit of understanding. If not, then<lb />
oh well. I tried. And that's more than I<lb />
can say for some.<lb />
Letter to the Editor<lb />
Dear Editor,<lb />
1 am writing in response to an arti-<lb />
cle published Jan. 20 entitled "Southern<lb />
Living written by Trevor Worden. I<lb />
sincerely hope that Mr. Worden is not a<lb />
history major, as that would cause me to<lb />
question the integrity of what 1 believe<lb />
to be an exceptional department at this<lb />
university.<lb />
What immediately caught my eye<lb />
about Mr. Worden's piece was the<lb />
fourth sentence in the article: "Despite<lb />
 the invasion of so many unwanted<lb />
Northerners, a lot of the South has still<lb />
been able to maintain its small-town<lb />
simple living vibe This is a very curi-<lb />
ous remark, for two sentences before,<lb />
Mr. Worden states that "Southernj<lb />
people are friendlier" than Northern<lb />
people. Obviously, he means that<lb />
Southern people are "friendlier" only<lb />
to other Southern people.<lb />
As for Mr. Worden's shockingly<lb />
erroneous recount of the Civil War,<lb />
Southern people were by no means<lb />
being told what they could or could not<lb />
do. A nation decided-a nation includes<lb />
every geographical segment, including<lb />
the North and South - to forbid some-<lb />
thing that never should have plagued<lb />
it to begin with: slavery. Frankly, I<lb />
am dismayed and disappointed at the<lb />
way Mr. Worden breezily testifies that<lb />
Southerners "bought others" for labor<lb />
purposes and that the laws prohibit-<lb />
ing such actions were "unfounded<lb />
and impossible No person should be<lb />
permitted to "buy" any other person,<lb />
regardless of the reason.<lb />
The Civil War was certainly not<lb />
fought exclusively in the South as Mr.<lb />
Worden claims. What about the battle<lb />
of Gettysburg in Pennsylvania? Or<lb />
Harper's Ferry in Northeastern West<lb />
Virginia? Or Antietam in Maryland<lb />
(I'm sure Mr. Worden knows that this<lb />
is referred to as the Battle of Sharpsburg<lb />
in the South. The South named its<lb />
battles after cities or towns, the North<lb />
after the nearest river or creek)? The<lb />
citizens and the land of those commu-<lb />
nities suffered equally as much as those<lb />
in the South. This still is no justifica-<lb />
tion for the War.<lb />
In all of the history courses that<lb />
I have taken, including an excellent<lb />
American history course here at ECU,<lb />
never was I taught about "how cruel<lb />
the Yankees treated the poor Southern-<lb />
ers The "poor Southerners"? What<lb />
about the slaves? In all of Mr. Worden's<lb />
"research he refuses to acknowledge<lb />
that slaves may have been mistreated.<lb />
To the contrary, Mr. Worden's writing<lb />
suggests that slavery is and was not only<lb />
acceptable, but humane.<lb />
In Mr. Worden's view, I am an<lb />
"unwanted Northerner along with<lb />
thousands of other ECU students.<lb />
According to Mr. Worden, I "push<lb />
prices higher" and make unemploy-<lb />
ment go "through the roof But what<lb />
would happen if each of us "unwanted<lb />
northerners" removed our "unwanted"<lb />
selves from the South? We and our<lb />
families pay four times as much tuition,<lb />
we buy food, clothing and pay taxes.<lb />
And, by doing so, we help local busi-<lb />
nesses and merchants stay in business.<lb />
Finally, we bring diversity to ECU and<lb />
Greenville. I'm sure Mr. Worden would<lb />
like to eliminate all of this.<lb />
Like it or not, Mr. Worden, Greenville<lb />
isn't a city made of people who belong<lb />
here (according to you, people born<lb />
in the South) and people who don't<lb />
(people born in the North). Greenville,<lb />
and the South as a whole, is a wonder-<lb />
ful blend of many different people. The<lb />
United States is precisely that - united.<lb />
The segregation between the North and<lb />
South that you apparently long for is<lb />
what the Civil War sought to end. So<lb />
cringe away at my "nasal accent" and<lb />
look at me through your myopic and<lb />
judgmental eyes. Just because I wasn't<lb />
raised to eat collard greens - as you<lb />
weren't raised to drive in the snow<lb />
- does not mean that you and I don't<lb />
share a common purpose for ECU, our<lb />
country and the world today.<lb />
The simple facts are these -<lb />
No human being, Mr. Worden<lb />
included, would enjoy being bought or<lb />
sold. "Northerners" and "Southern-<lb />
ers" should be terms used to identify<lb />
places of origin, not to breed Intoler-<lb />
ance and contempt. Urban develop-<lb />
ment has occurred in every corner<lb />
of the country, and the development<lb />
of the South occurred because of<lb />
Southern people, Northern people,<lb />
Canadians, Mexicans, Europeans,<lb />
Asians and well, the world. For some<lb />
reason, however, Southern people<lb />
seem to have held on to (or created, I<lb />
am not sure which) a resentment and<lb />
anger toward Northern people simply<lb />
for the sake of resentment. The Civil<lb />
War and slavery (as it existed then)<lb />
ended long ago, but resentment should<lb />
end as well.<lb />
1 offer a hand of friendship to Mr.<lb />
Worden. Let's make ECU a better place<lb />
for everyone, regardless of where we<lb />
come from or where we call home.<lb />

Pirate Rant<lb />
I would really like it if TEC<lb />
would only run classified ads from<lb />
local businesses and students. I'm<lb />
already bombarded enough with<lb />
ads for car insurance, bartending<lb />
and spring break vacations.<lb />
Do you know many other<lb />
states will not accept a North<lb />
Carolina driver's license as a form<lb />
of valid identification?<lb />
We need a Chinese food place<lb />
on campus. I'm so tired of pizza<lb />
and burgers.<lb />
Don't you love it when some-<lb />
body is given fancy new equip-<lb />
ment just because he broke his,<lb />
while people who take care of<lb />
things get jack?<lb />
Why can't professors stick to<lb />
testing us on materials presented<lb />
in class? Why should we even<lb />
bother to go to class when all the<lb />
professor is going to talk about is<lb />
his family problems?<lb />
Yesterday I was so bored I<lb />
signed up for Pirate Singles -<lb />
10 spams, zero girls.<lb />
It's hilarious how a half-inch<lb />
to an inch of snow cripples this<lb />
area, when kids up north are used<lb />
to going to school in a foot of snow.<lb />
I'm about to strangle the local<lb />
meteorologists. How about at<lb />
least getting the forecast some-<lb />
what close? Don't tell me it's<lb />
going to be 47 degrees and sunny<lb />
when it's really 31 and cloudy.<lb />
Although Ben Roethlisberger<lb />
went how ever many games with-<lb />
out a loss, at the end, he is still<lb />
a rookie.<lb />
How come the forks at the<lb />
Wright Place don't have a plastic<lb />
covering on them anymore?<lb />
Why is it called Spring Break<lb />
when it is scheduled for March<lb />
13 - 20, which is the last week<lb />
of winter?<lb />
Why is it that those friends<lb />
that don't have a car assume that<lb />
you don't have anything else to<lb />
do but drive them around? And<lb />
then they don't ever give you gas<lb />
money for your assistance.<lb />
Weathermen are so useless.<lb />
On a day with 20 percent chance<lb />
of snow, we get an inch. On a<lb />
day with 100 percent chance, we<lb />
get none.<lb />
Just like last semester, I buy all<lb />
my required books and I have yet<lb />
to use a single one.<lb />
If you hate your major so<lb />
much, why not change it? No<lb />
one wants to listen to you whine<lb />
and complain about how hard it<lb />
is when they are working their<lb />
butt off and enjoying it.<lb />
When I read the Pirate Rant<lb />
and responses to opinion articles,<lb />
I believe that most of the people<lb />
submitting these comments have<lb />
a concern of the world around<lb />
them. But it's the clueless masses<lb />
of ECU that are totally oblivious<lb />
to our criticizing observations<lb />
and grievances.<lb />
I would just like to give tre-<lb />
mendous props to Tony McKee<lb />
for his article on Michael Moore's<lb />
hypocrisy. It was great and I agree<lb />
completely. Rock on, Republicans.<lb />
Hey, Tony McKee - The only<lb />
thing you're raving about is die-<lb />
hard Republicanism. To listen<lb />
to you, the Democrats should<lb />
be fired from the Congress and<lb />
Senate, and Bush ought to be<lb />
His Eminence, the Holy Father<lb />
of Americans. Does that sound<lb />
logical to you? Or have you no<lb />
thoughts of your own on this<lb />
matter? And I'm a Republican.<lb />
1 think the article on the<lb />
South in Thursday's features sec-<lb />
tion was horrible. Yeah, people<lb />
in the South are real friendly<lb />
- that is, only if you are from<lb />
the South.<lb />
Last time I checked, we are<lb />
in the South and some hunting<lb />
seasons are still in. Camouflage<lb />
is very much part of most South-<lb />
erners' wardrobe, so I am guess-<lb />
ing whoever made the comment<lb />
about "wearing hunting gear to<lb />
class" is not from around here.<lb />

"American Idol" season three competitors celebrate the victory<lb />
of Fantasia Barrino at the end of last season with tears and<lb />
confetti. Season four is rumored to bring heavy competition.<lb />
Popular reality show<lb />
hopes to capitalize<lb />
on success<lb />
KYLE BILLINGS<lb />
STAFF WRITER<lb />
Simon Cowell, Paula Abdul<lb />
and Randy Jackson are back and<lb />
one of the most popular shows<lb />
on television attempts to make<lb />
it four times the charm. The trio<lb />
is back for more on the reality<lb />
show where their opinions decide<lb />
the fate of thousands who are<lb />
competing to win the coveted<lb />
record contract they have always<lb />
dreamed of. Kelly Clarkson,<lb />
Ruben Studdard and Fantasia Bar-<lb />
rino have adorned the crown that<lb />
is "American Idol" Champion,<lb />
and the journey begins anew to<lb />
find out who is next.<lb />
With continued success,<lb />
changes to engage seem needed.<lb />
The show corrects flaws in the<lb />
process to limit potential lack of<lb />
interest. An older population now<lb />
has the chance to shine with the<lb />
age limit being extended from<lb />
24 to 28. Out of the finalists<lb />
that make it to Hollywood, this<lb />
time 24 get to move on instead<lb />
of the previous 32 standard.<lb />
Maybe the most creative changes<lb />
needed would be newer insults<lb />
Simon could use on the numer-<lb />
ous contestants who will try<lb />
out lacking the star quality of<lb />
past contestants.<lb />
Celebrity judges are common<lb />
within the mainframe of the<lb />
show, and this year's lineup aims<lb />
to impress. This past week you<lb />
may have seen Mark McGrath<lb />
sitting alongside the trio that<lb />
is Cowell, Abdul and Jackson.<lb />
The special guest roster includes<lb />
names like Kenny Loggins, Gene<lb />
Simmons and LL CoolJ.<lb />
While many consider this<lb />
reality show one of many, its<lb />
influence on the music industry<lb />
is undeniable, wielding sing-<lb />
ers like Kelly Clarkson (anyone<lb />
heard the song 'Breakaway'?),<lb />
Clay Aiken and William Hung.<lb />
All of the winners were awarded<lb />
record contracts, as well as many<lb />
of those that faired well. The<lb />
lone exception is William Hung,<lb />
a civil engineering student at<lb />
UC Berkeley, who failed to "make<lb />
it to Hollywood yet still man-<lb />
aged to score his own record<lb />
deal for his inspirational inter-<lb />
pretation of Ricky Martin's hit,<lb />
"She Bangs Kelly Clarkson's<lb />
album Breakaway is now sixth on<lb />
the Billboard 200 album charts,<lb />
as last year's winner Fantasia<lb />
Barrino's debut album Free<lb />
Yourself is 26th and has<lb />
already gained certified<lb />
platinum status.<lb />
People from North Carolina<lb />
might hold the "American Idol"<lb />
competition in a more valued<lb />
light, since they might actually<lb />
know the next big contestant<lb />
personally. Clay Aiken wowed<lb />
the audiences in the second<lb />
"American Idol" season, creat-<lb />
ing a legion of "Clay Maniacs<lb />
which he can attribute to his<lb />
Raleigh upbringing. Fantasia Bar-<lb />
rino of High Point, NC, won last<lb />
year's contest with her soulful<lb />
voice and charismatic person-<lb />
ality. In fact, North Carolina<lb />
is home to the only university<lb />
that offers classes on "Ameri-<lb />
can Idol UNC-Charlotte now<lb />
offers three credits for the class<lb />
"Examining American Idol<lb />
through Musical Critique<lb />
"American Idol" has won its way<lb />
into the hearts of North Carolin-<lb />
ians right up there with sweet tea<lb />
and barbeque.<lb />
The show hopes to capitalize<lb />
and expand on the 25 million<lb />
people on average who tuned<lb />
in to see last year's weekly Idol<lb />
programs. ECU students are not<lb />
excluded from that fan base.<lb />

DANIELLE WIGGINS<lb />
STAFF WRITER<lb />
Behind the scenes songwriter<lb />
and breakout recording artist<lb />
has advanced to number four on<lb />
the Billboard charts with debut<lb />
album Get Lifted. The music<lb />
industry is not a foreign art to<lb />
this legend. He has played piano<lb />
for Lauryn Hill's "Everything is<lb />
Everything" and teamed up to<lb />
co-write two songs off of Kanye<lb />
West's album, College Dropout.<lb />
Big names in Hollywood includ-<lb />
ing Jay-Z, Janet Jackson, Britney<lb />
Spears and Alicia Keys were<lb />
eager to include Legend on their<lb />
Grammy winning albums. With<lb />
his soulful, gospel background,<lb />
Legend has rapidly become one<lb />
of the hottest sought out artists<lb />
in the music business. Fans went<lb />
insane for his debut single<lb />
"Used to Love You" produced<lb />
by Kanye West. "Used to Love<lb />
You" bumped up to popular top<lb />
10 music charts. Currently, his<lb />
second single, "Ordinary People<lb />
has persuaded those who have<lb />
not already purchased the album<lb />
to do so.<lb />

Who knew this Ohio<lb />
native would live up to his<lb />
name? He has indeed come a<lb />
long way from selling bootleg<lb />
albums of his work off the streets<lb />
to hitting the top of almost every<lb />
music video chart. Legend has<lb />
a unique, classic sound which<lb />
we all will watch and anticipate<lb />
whether this artist will really<lb />
follow music legends such as<lb />
Smokey Robinson, Stevie Wonder<lb />
and Aretha Franklin. We can<lb />
compare this artist to Anthony<lb />
Hamilton or even a male Alicia<lb />
Keys, but no one can quite reach<lb />
his sophisticated sound and<lb />
music style.<lb />

Motley Crue: Red, White &amp; Crue Tour explodes<lb />
Sex, drugs, rock and<lb />
roll coming to a town<lb />
near you<lb />
GARY MCCABE<lb />
STAFF WRITER<lb />
If you were to ask an average<lb />
college student who Motley Crue<lb />
was, odds are that you would<lb />
hear about fist fights, arrests,<lb />
reality shows and sex tapes<lb />
before you would hear about<lb />
the band's actual music. If you<lb />
ask somebody who came of age<lb />
in the 1980s though, you'd hear<lb />
a completely different answer,<lb />
probably a very positive one<lb />
with a lot of curse words and<lb />
enthusiasm.<lb />
In the 1980s, people liked<lb />
their metal loud and their hair<lb />
big. And no band was louder or<lb />
had bigger hair than Motley Crue.<lb />
Motley Crue was formed in 1981<lb />
by Nikki Sixx, who recruited<lb />
members from other bands based<lb />
in the Los Angeles area.<lb />
The original lineup consisted<lb />
of Sixx playing bass, Mick Mars<lb />
playing lead guitar with Tommy<lb />
Lee on drums and Vince Neil<lb />
as the lead singer. When the<lb />
ensemble was complete, a friend<lb />
keenly observed, "What a motley<lb />
looking crue With this, Motley<lb />
Crue was born.<lb />
The band released their<lb />
first album Too Fast For Love<lb />
in November of 1981 on their<lb />
own Leathur Records label. The<lb />
album began a musical<lb />
movement In Los Angeles<lb />
which would later lead to the<lb />
creation of bands like Bon Jovi<lb />
and Guns N' Roses. The sound<lb />
of the band at the time was best<lb />
described by VII1 .com, saying the<lb />
band had a knack for creating<lb />
fists-in-the-air anthems that<lb />
didn't require a high IO on the<lb />
part of the listener, although<lb />
they did know how to play loud<lb />
and dumb<lb />
After signing to Electra Records<lb />
in 1982, the band released a string<lb />
of hit albums with Shout At The<lb />
Devil in 1983, Theatre of Tain in<lb />
1985 and Girls, Girls, Girls in 1987.<lb />
While on their way to selling 40<lb />
million records worldwide, the<lb />
band also set new standards for<lb />
rock and roll excess.<lb />
The band indulged in the<lb />
usual rock star fare - hard drugs,<lb />
alcohol and women. It's a wonder<lb />
that the members of the band are<lb />
alive to tell their story, which they<lb />
did in their 2001 autobiography<lb />
The Dirt, although it's through<lb />
pure luck that they are.<lb />
In 1985 Neil was involved<lb />
in a horrific car accident, which<lb />
killed a passenger in his car,<lb />
This legendary rock band<lb />
has stood the test of time and<lb />
embarks on the 2005 tour.<lb />
Hanoi Rocks drummer, Razzle.<lb />
Three years later, Sixx overdosed<lb />
on heroin and physically died<lb />
but was brought back by an<lb />
adrenaline shot to the heart.<lb />
Following that, members of<lb />
the band hit rehab and came<lb />
out with Dr. Feelgood, their first<lb />
chart-topping album.<lb />
However, their success would<lb />
come crashing down. With the<lb />
advent of Nirvana and grunge<lb />
music, "hair metal" was no longer<lb />
hip and in 1992, Neil was kicked<lb />
out of the band. Although Neil<lb />
would return to the band in<lb />
1996, their work in the 1990s<lb />
was overshadowed by their lives<lb />
offstage and the band never again<lb />
reached their level of success<lb />
from the 1980s.<lb />
Tommy Lee became a<lb />
lightning rod in the press after<lb />
his 'bathing suit only' wedding<lb />
to "Baywatch" beauty Pamela<lb />
Anderson. The public's curios-<lb />
ity turned into a feeding frenzy<lb />
after a honeymoon sex tape<lb />
surfaced, which the couple<lb />
unsuccessfully tried to block.<lb />
The video can now easily be<lb />
found on the Internet. Lee was<lb />
arrested in 1998 on charges of<lb />
spousal abuse, child abuse and<lb />
a firearms violation.<lb />
Vince Neil has also managed<lb />
to stay in the news in one way or<lb />
the other. A sex tape of Neil and<lb />
porno-star Janine surfaced shortly<lb />
after Lee's. Recently Neil has<lb />
been in the spotlight following<lb />
appearances on two reality<lb />
television shows: "The Surreal<lb />
Life" and "Remaking Vince<lb />
Nell The latter shows Neil<lb />
undergoing a series of<lb />
reconstructive surgery while<lb />
working with a personal trainer<lb />
to 'remake Vince Nell' into the<lb />
Vince Neil of old. Recently, he<lb />
was married for a fourth time,<lb />
with M.C. Hammer, whom<lb />
he met on "The Surreal Life<lb />
performing the service.<lb />
It's been more than six years<lb />
since a fistfight between Neil<lb />
and Lee broke out and the band<lb />
hasn't performed together since.<lb />

Until now. Due to overwhelming<lb />
demand from fans, the group has<lb />
decided to put aside their differ-<lb />
ences and play together again. In<lb />
late 2004, the group was holed<lb />
up in a recording studio doing<lb />
a handful of new songs for an<lb />

The first great<lb />
album of 2005<lb />
Unwritten Law is more<lb />
than a one-hit wonder<lb />
TREVOR KIRKINDALL<lb />
STAFF WRITER<lb />
Southern California's pop-<lb />
punk outfit Unwritten Law has<lb />
gained a bit of attention over<lb />
the past few years. Their success<lb />
grew into the mainstream in<lb />
2002 with their hit song "Seein'<lb />
Red" from the album, Elva. This<lb />
was their breakthrough album<lb />
with Lava Records which sold<lb />
more than 400,000 albums. The<lb />
follow up was From Music in High<lb />
Places, an album comprised of<lb />
mostly acoustic tracks, which<lb />
was released in 2003.<lb />
They have seen fame rise<lb />
up right in front of their faces<lb />
over the past few years. They<lb />
performed on the Warped Tour<lb />
for a short jaunt before being<lb />
kicked off when front man Scott<lb />
Russo started a fistfight after<lb />
throwing a mattress out a four-<lb />
story window. Russo seems to be<lb />
filling the shoes of yesterday's<lb />
bad boy rock stars like GG Allin,<lb />
Johnny Rotten and Axl Rose.<lb />
- y<lb />
.� 41<lb />
111 'I<lb />
Unwritten Law's single "Save<lb />
Me" is now playin on local<lb />
rock stations.<lb />
Finally, after their recent suc-<lb />
cess, Unwritten Law will return<lb />
to the mainstream on Feb. 1,<lb />
with their new album Here's to<lb />
the Mourning. Having never even<lb />
heard of this band before, I was<lb />
able to listen to the cuts from<lb />
this album with an unbiased<lb />
opinion. The five cuts from this<lb />
album that I was able to listen to<lb />
were a pleasant surprise.<lb />
Unwritten Law enlisted the<lb />
help of some very well respected<lb />
individuals in the music world.<lb />
Here's to the Mourning was pro-<lb />
duced by Sean Beavan, who<lb />
has previously worked with<lb />
Nine Inch Nails and Marilyn<lb />
Manson. Beavan's sound is not<lb />
very characteristic to the style<lb />
that most punk bands strive to<lb />
model themselves after. This is<lb />
a very bold move for the band<lb />
to take. They also brought Josh<lb />
Abraham onboard for some<lb />
additional producing. Abraham's<lb />
credits include Velvet Revolver<lb />
and Staind.<lb />
Beavan's signature sound is<lb />
present throughout the songs<lb />
included on this album. The<lb />
intro to the song "Get Up" has<lb />
Nine Inch Nails written all over<lb />
it. This track, my favorite track<lb />
among the samples I heard, starts<lb />
with a Nine Inch Nails style intro<lb />
that moves Into a sound I have<lb />
not heard any other poppunk<lb />
outfit try before. Russo's voice<lb />
contains the defining character-<lb />
istics of a poppunk group, but at<lb />
times he starts to sound a little<lb />
like John Bush from Anthrax.<lb />
Underneath Russo, we can hear<lb />
the rest of the band grinding<lb />
out a pulsating beat that sounds<lb />
more like a hard rock band than<lb />

a punk band. Is this really a<lb />
punk band or is Unwritten Law<lb />
changing their style away from<lb />
the SoCal skating scene to con-<lb />
form more to the likes of Velvet<lb />
Revolver?<lb />
The lead off track from this<lb />
album is "Save Me It first hit<lb />
radio stations on Dec. 7,2004 and<lb />
has quickly climbed the modern<lb />
rock charts since its release. The<lb />
band enlisted the writing talents<lb />
of tunesmith Linda Perry. The<lb />
lyrics in this song show off the<lb />
band's dark side. Yet another<lb />
powerfully driven track which<lb />
was wonderfully written, and<lb />
brilliantly produced.<lb />
Having never listened to this<lb />
band before, it is difficult to know<lb />
what to expect from Unwritten<lb />
Law. It is easy to be completely<lb />
blown away by the power that is<lb />
evident on this album. That is,<lb />
the presence of mastermind Sean<lb />
Beaven at work. The songs from<lb />
the new album are quite simple,<lb />
but they move seamlessly from<lb />
beginning to end. Listeners are<lb />
found wanting more, but alas,<lb />
all must wait until Feb. 1.<lb />
There are some older songs<lb />
from Unwritten Law before they<lb />
were signed to a major label,<lb />
floating around. There is a clear<lb />
difference between the songs<lb />
found on the albums of the<lb />
late 1990s and the ones found<lb />
on Here's to the Mourning. Let's<lb />
hope that Unwritten Law is not<lb />
the next band to fall into the<lb />
trap that destroyed some of the<lb />
great bands of the past where the<lb />
creative process was overrun by<lb />
the producer (remember Yoko<lb />
and The Beatles?). For now, we<lb />
have a great album in Here's to<lb />
the Mourning, and we shouldn't<lb />
let nightmarish thoughts like<lb />
that ruin the fact that this album<lb />
does, indeed, rock.<lb />

Pennington played<lb />
with torn rotator cuff<lb />
Jets quarterback Chad Pennington<lb />
has a torn right rotator cuff, an<lb />
injury he played with for the<lb />
final six games of the season<lb />
Pennington was hurt Nov. 7<lb />
against Buffalo after he was hit<lb />
hard following a scramble. An<lb />
initial MRI exam showed the<lb />
tear, but the team announced<lb />
Pennington had a strain. After<lb />
sitting out three weeks, Pennington<lb />
returned to play. Team doctor Elliot<lb />
Pellman revealed the extent of<lb />
the injury Tuesday. Pellman said<lb />
the team is hopeful Pennington<lb />
will be ready for the start of<lb />
training camp in July but made<lb />
no promises. He said Pennington<lb />
came back because there was<lb />
a minimal risk to damaging the<lb />
shoulder further. But it appeared<lb />
Pennington lost velocity on his<lb />
passes once he did return, and<lb />
coach Herman Edwards said<lb />
the franchise quarterback was<lb />
playing through pain A second<lb />
MRI following their 20-17 overtime<lb />
loss to Pittsburgh in the second<lb />
round of the playoffs showed<lb />
there was no additional damage.<lb />
Pennington will have surgery<lb />
shortly after the Super Bowl on<lb />
Feb. 6. Renowned specialist<lb />
James Andrews will perform<lb />
the surgery. The severity of the<lb />
injury is disconcerting, because<lb />
rotator cuff tears are uncommon<lb />
for quarterbacks. Pitchers are the<lb />
most likely athletes to sustain the<lb />
Injury, and many take up to a year<lb />
to fully recover. But quarterbacks<lb />
do not throw the ball as hard<lb />
and have fewer motions, so the<lb />
recovery time could take as few<lb />
as six months. In addition, the Jets<lb />
gave Pennington a $64 million,<lb />
seven-year contract extension<lb />
before the season started,<lb />
banking their future on him. The<lb />
Jets also are in the market for a<lb />
backup QB, since Quincy Carter is<lb />
a free agent and expected to look<lb />
for a starting job elsewhere.<lb />
Eagles sign Thomason<lb />
for Super Bowl<lb />
Tight end Jeff Thomason is<lb />
going to the Super Bowl with<lb />
the Philadelphia Eagles after<lb />
being out of the NFL the last two<lb />
seasons. Thomason signed with<lb />
the Eagles on Tuesday to replace<lb />
tight end Chad Lewis, who scored<lb />
two touchdowns but also injured<lb />
his foot in Philadelphia's 27-10<lb />
victory over Atlanta in the NFC<lb />
Championship Game. Lewis was<lb />
put on injured reserve to make<lb />
roster space. Thomason spent<lb />
three seasons with the Eagles but<lb />
hasn't played since 2002. Seven of<lb />
his 25 catches with Philadelphia<lb />
were touchdowns. L.J. Smith will<lb />
take Lewis' starting spot against<lb />
the New England Patriots in the<lb />
Super Bowl on Feb. 6. Seldom-<lb />
used Mike Bartrum is the Eagles'<lb />
other tight end. Thomason began<lb />
his career with Cincinnati in<lb />
1992 and played five seasons<lb />
in Green Bay, before coming to<lb />
Philadelphia in 2000. He has 67<lb />
receptions for 650 yards and 10<lb />
TDs in 10 seasons.<lb />
Crouch gets<lb />
another shot in NFL<lb />
Former Heisman winner Eric<lb />
Crouch signed with the Kansas<lb />
City Chiefs In another attempt<lb />
to make the NFL as a defensive<lb />
back. The Chiefs will look at<lb />
Crouch as a safety and plan to<lb />
send him to NFL Europe this<lb />
spring. Crouch, who won the<lb />
Heisman in 2001 at Nefcraska,<lb />
is committed to defense, Chiefs<lb />
coach Dick Vermeil said. In 2002<lb />
Crouch was a third-round draft<lb />
choice of the St. Louis Rams,<lb />
who wanted to use him as a<lb />
receiver, but he left the team in<lb />
training camp when he wasn't<lb />
given a chance at quarterback.<lb />
He later had a couple of trials<lb />
with the Green Bay Packers, once<lb />
as a quarterback and then as a<lb />
safety, but he was released before<lb />
training camp last season.<lb />
ECU'S recipe for success<lb />
Conference USA could<lb />
be answer for Pirates<lb />
ERIC QILMORE<lb />
STAFF WRITER<lb />
Don't jump. Not yet, at least.<lb />
I know for any fan or athlete that<lb />
very basketball loss feels like a<lb />
kick in the face after what trans-<lb />
pired during football season. But<lb />
why abandon ship now (or the<lb />
Greene Street Bridge)?<lb />
The Rowdy Dowdy's, Minges<lb />
Maniacs and Jungelites can't lose<lb />
their resiliency because athletic<lb />
director Terry Holland just may be<lb />
up to something. The funny part<lb />
is that he might not even know it.<lb />
Likening it to an old family<lb />
recipe, only a couple of athletic<lb />
directors have figured it out.<lb />
Are you ready to know how to<lb />
be successful in Division I-A?<lb />
Promise you won't tell? Shhh.<lb />
The secret recipe for success is<lb />
(drum roll): win Conference<lb />
USA.<lb />
Sure, it's been the goal of<lb />
every athletic team since offi-<lb />
cially joining the conference in<lb />
1997. But who's actually done it?<lb />
Baseball has been the exception,<lb />
but where is ECU baseball now?<lb />
They are consistently successful<lb />
in the national spotlight and on<lb />
the verge of opening a new $11<lb />
million dollar stadium.<lb />
Yeah, I said win C-USA, not<lb />
the Big East. Settle down. Before<lb />
you go Jim Mora crazy, think<lb />
about it. Doesn't it make sense to<lb />
dominate a predominately weaker<lb />
conference than to be mediocre<lb />
in a major conference?<lb />
Ask Boise State, Utah and<lb />
Louisville how they would have<lb />
done this past season in football<lb />
had they been in a BCS confer-<lb />
ence? They would have done<lb />
well (eight wins or so), but they<lb />
ECU has to start winning games and making postseason appearances in many athletic programs before leaving C-USA.<lb />
wouldn't be among the top 13<lb />
programs in the nation.<lb />
Florida State, Miami and<lb />
Virginia Tech did it for years in<lb />
football. Before the expansion of<lb />
the ACC, Florida State only had to<lb />
win their non-conference sched-<lb />
ule to all but assure themselves<lb />
a shot at the national champi-<lb />
onship game. Michael Vick's<lb />
Virginia Tech had to beat Miami<lb />
and vice versa when both teams<lb />
where in the Big East. If the goal is<lb />
to win, any fan would want their<lb />
team to play Rutgers and Temple<lb />
over Clemson and Georgia Tech<lb />
week in and week out.<lb />
Look at the college basket-<lb />
ball landscape. If Gonzaga was<lb />
in the Pacific 10, would they be<lb />
in the top 25? Southern Illinois<lb />
and Creighton are household<lb />
names now because they domi-<lb />
nate their weaker leagues. No<lb />
one knows where they are but<lb />
folks know these schools win<lb />
consistently.<lb />
C-USA has elevated teams to<lb />
new levels of status because they<lb />
won. South Florida is moving to<lb />
the Big East because they won<lb />
in football their brief years in<lb />
C-USA. UAB just went to a bowl<lb />
game for the first time and a<lb />
trip to the Sweet 16. Marquette<lb />
simply doesn't go to a Final Four<lb />
had they competed in the Big<lb />
East.<lb />
Louisville has a chance to<lb />
win that football national cham-<lb />
pionship next year in a watered<lb />
down Big East. Before the cre-<lb />

Brady will enter Super Bowl<lb />
with spotlight on McNabb<lb />
Pirates approach<lb />
winnable games<lb />
Brady is now an NFL record 8-0 in postseason play.<lb />
(KRT) PITTSBURGH � For<lb />
someone who has won two Super<lb />
Bowls in the last three years. New<lb />
England's Tom Brady strangely<lb />
gets overshadowed each week by<lb />
his opposing quarterback.<lb />
Two weeks ago, the head-<lb />
lines centered on Indianapolis'<lb />
Peyton Manning, the reign-<lb />
ing MVP who shattered NFL<lb />
records for touchdown passes and<lb />
passer rating.<lb />
Brady (a touchdown pass, a<lb />
touchdown run, no interceptions)<lb />
went on to outplay Manning (two<lb />
interceptions) in the Patriots' 20-<lb />
3 victory over Indianapolis in an<lb />
AFC second-round game.<lb />
Last week, the focus was on<lb />
Pittsburgh rookie phenom Ben<lb />
Roethlisberger, who had reeled off<lb />
14 straight victories as a starter.<lb />
But Brady (two touchdown<lb />
passes, no interceptions) outplayed<lb />
Roethlisberger (two touchdown<lb />
passes, three interceptions) in the<lb />
Patriots' 41-27 victory in Sunday<lb />
night's AFC championship game.<lb />
Now, the attention will shift to<lb />
Philadelphia quarterback Donovan<lb />
McNabb, who will make his Super<lb />
Bowl debut against the Patriots<lb />
after the Eagles snapped a string<lb />
of three straight losses in the NFC<lb />
championship by defeating Atlanta<lb />
27-10 on Sunday and advancing to<lb />
their first Super Bowl in 25 years.<lb />
Brady understands why the<lb />
limelight seems to shine on his<lb />
opposite number. His counter-<lb />
parts are still striving for what<lb />
he's accomplished.<lb />
"I said last week when we<lb />
were playing the Colts, I have had<lb />
more attention than anybody in<lb />
the league in the last three years<lb />
Brady said. "I'm definitely not<lb />
slighted for attention. We play<lb />
some great opponents.<lb />
"You talk about McNabb<lb />
because he's been the best player<lb />
on Philly's team for a long time<lb />
Brady, meanwhile, has been<lb />
the best player on New England's<lb />
team for four years. With another<lb />
MVP performance in the Super<lb />
Bowl on Feb. 6, he'll take his place<lb />
among the game's all-time greats,<lb />
including his boyhood hero, Joe<lb />
Montana, and other multi-cham-<lb />
pionship quarterbacks such as<lb />
Terry Bradshaw, Troy Aikman and<lb />
Bart Starr.<lb />
Brady, just 27 years old, has<lb />
won 31 of his last 33 starts. He is<lb />
8-0 in the postseason, and a Super<lb />
Bowl win would tie him with Starr<lb />
for the most consecutive playoff<lb />
wins at the start of a career.<lb />
In two playoff wins this<lb />
season, he completed an efficient<lb />
32 of 48 passes for 351 yards and<lb />
three touchdowns with no inter-<lb />
ceptions. In eight career postsea-<lb />
son games, Brady has completed<lb />
167 of 271 passes (62 percent) for<lb />
1,715 yards, nine touchdowns<lb />
and just three interceptions.<lb />
His postseason interception<lb />
rate of just 1.1 percent of his<lb />
passes is better than anybody who<lb />
has played the game.<lb />
"There's no other quarterback<lb />
I'd rather have Patriots coach<lb />
Bill Belichick said after Sunday<lb />
night's victory over Pittsburgh.<lb />
"He's smart and tough  and sees<lb />
things well on the field. I don't<lb />
think the magnitude of the game<lb />
or the crowd or noise or the situ-<lb />
ation bothers him.<lb />
"He does everything we ask<lb />
him to do, and that goes from<lb />
the first day of the offseason<lb />
program to the last day of the<lb />
regular season. Meetings, prac-<lb />
tice, walkthrough, games, film<lb />
sessions, you name it. He is right<lb />
there at the top of every (cat-<lb />
egory). I don't think you can ask<lb />
any more of a person than that<lb />
Brady tugged at his light<lb />
brown beard when asked to<lb />
explain his ability to play his best<lb />
in the biggest games.<lb />
"I prepare many weeks the<lb />
same way Brady said. "When<lb />
it gets to the playoffs, you take<lb />
your preparation to another<lb />
level. I watched every game Pitts-<lb />
burgh played this year. I went<lb />
over the call sheet five or six<lb />
times with my coach. That's<lb />
the type of attention to detail<lb />
you need.<lb />
"When you get in these games,<lb />
you better know where you're<lb />
looking at. I made one stupid<lb />
read. As I walked off the field, I<lb />
said we talked about that three<lb />
times but it still went to the wrong<lb />

SENIOR WRITER<lb />
All in<lb />
favor of<lb />
making col-<lb />
lege basket-<lb />
ball games<lb />
20 minutes<lb />
instead of<lb />
40 minutes<lb />
long please<lb />
raise your<lb />
hand. Every<lb />
student's hand<lb />
should be in<lb />
the air right<lb />
now. I know Bill Herrion's is.<lb />
If games only lasted 20 min-<lb />
utes, his Pirates would boast a<lb />
better record than their 5 -13 mark.<lb />
This has been the main prob-<lb />
lem for the Pirates this season -<lb />
playing 40 minutes of basketball.<lb />
We have seen great things from<lb />
this team this season. Must we all<lb />
forget the opening game where<lb />
ECU dominated Peppedine?<lb />
Or how about wins against<lb />
Toledo and Oregon State?<lb />
But it's not the wins<lb />
that draw attention to a<lb />
program - it's the losses.<lb />
Some losses have been bad<lb />
(Gardner Webb 90 ECU 60).<lb />
Some losses have been ugly<lb />
(Louisville 92 ECU 41).<lb />
Some have just come<lb />
at the hands of better teams<lb />
(Cincinnati 84 ECU 78).<lb />
However, it's the most recent<lb />
losses that must drive Bill Herrion<lb />
crazy. Tied 30-30 at the half with<lb />
DePaul in Chicago, the Pirates lost<lb />
77 - 56 in a game where ECU was<lb />
outscored 47 to 26 in the second<lb />
half. The Pirates did very well in<lb />
the first half though, going into<lb />
the break with a seven-point lead.<lb />
It seems this team started out this<lb />
season with the trend of starting<lb />
each game flat and then warming<lb />
up as the game went out. Now they<lb />
come out of the gates well but can't<lb />
finish games. Just like in any sport,<lb />
if you can't finish, you can't win.<lb />
It's really easy to start giving<lb />
up on this team at this point in<lb />
the season - we all know by the<lb />
empty seats in Minges Coliseum<lb />
that some people already have.<lb />
But I say the season is just now<lb />
starting and there is no reason<lb />
this team can't make the Confer-<lb />
ence USA tournament.<lb />
Looking at the stretch the<lb />
Pirates have gone through in<lb />
their first six C-USA games,<lb />
who really can complain about<lb />
their winless start in conference<lb />
play? They battled but lost to a<lb />
good and underrated USF team.<lb />
Then came the run of NCAA<lb />
tournament teams from last<lb />
year. Charlotte, Cincinatti, UAB,<lb />
Louisville and DePaul. Looking at<lb />
the schedule pre-season, the best<lb />
anyone could hope for realisti-<lb />
cally was 2 - 4 in this stretch and<lb />
that was with a win against USF<lb />
and pulling off one upset out of<lb />
the next five games.<lb />
With those games out of the<lb />
way, the Pirates must look ahead<lb />
and forget everything that has<lb />
happened this season.<lb />
This same scenario happened<lb />
last year. The Pirates played the<lb />
stronger teams in the conference<lb />
at the beginning of the season<lb />
and everyone got down on them,<lb />
Then ECU played some weaker,<lb />
teams and they finally started<lb />
winning games. The pirates went,<lb />
on to make the conference tour-<lb />
nament as they finished 11th in<lb />
the conference.<lb />
The way I see it, there are seven<lb />
teams battling for the last five<lb />
spots in the conference tourna;<lb />
ment: ECU, USF, Houston, Tulanej<lb />
Southern Miss, TCU and the<lb />
Pirates next opponent, St. Louis.<lb />
It will take four wins to get<lb />
into the tournament. It must start<lb />
tonight with St. Louis. The Billikens<lb />
already have three wins, so hold-<lb />
ing a tiebreaker over them would<lb />
be huge if the Pirates needed it.<lb />
The next stretch of games<lb />
are a little more difficult.<lb />
Charlotte at home, at Mem-<lb />
phis, at TCU, back here for Mar-<lb />
quette, then back on the road for<lb />
UAB and TCU. If ECU can win just<lb />
one of these games, it would be<lb />
hopefully their second win.<lb />
With that win, the Pirates<lb />
are at home with two must<lb />
win games. Southern Miss<lb />
and Houston before finish-<lb />
ing the season at Tulane. Win<lb />
two of those games and you<lb />
have four wins on the season!<lb />
So how will the Pirates dd<lb />
this? They still need to shoot<lb />
better. JaPhet McNeil is doing a<lb />
good job at the point driving and<lb />
kicking out to open teammates,<lb />
When he does this, whoever getj<lb />
the ball has got to knock down<lb />
that jump shot. Moussa needs to<lb />
get aggressive and get to the foul<lb />
line. He is a decent free throw<lb />
shooter. Corey Rouse needs to be<lb />
the dominant Corey Rouse that<lb />
we have seen at times this season<lb />
And most importantly, Mike Coolj<lb />
needs to score, take smart shots<lb />
and take control of the ball game.<lb />
If all the above things happen<lb />
for 40 minutes over the next<lb />
stretch, pack your bags for the<lb />
conference tournament.<lb />

ation of C-USA, Louisville had<lb />
won at least nine football games<lb />
only four times since the pro-<lb />
gram started in 1912. Compara-<lb />
tively, ECU won nine games or<lb />
more nine times. ECU obvi-<lb />
ously has a richer tradition of<lb />
winning yet Louisville is poised<lb />
to be among the national<lb />
elite because they will be in a<lb />
weak conference.<lb />
Looking at the Pirates, it was<lb />
a matter of lost opportunity. The<lb />
football program is equivalent<lb />
to the kid who dominates the<lb />
recreation league at six years old,<lb />
but simply can't play in middle<lb />
school because his peers are more<lb />
athletic. Other schools won C-<lb />
USA and got more athletic. The<lb />
good news is that ECU can now<lb />
assert itself more than ever as<lb />
a new power in the revamped<lb />
alignment.<lb />
The basketball program is<lb />
hitting turbulence because it<lb />
tried to take off too quickly. The<lb />
hardwood Pirates have only been<lb />
to the NCAA tournament once,<lb />
in 1993, and they didn't even<lb />
have a winning season that year.<lb />
Unlike football, there is no tradi-<lb />
tion of winning in basketball.<lb />
Not in the Southern Conference,<lb />
not in the Colonial Athletic<lb />
Association or now in C-USA.<lb />
Look in the rafters at Wil-<lb />
liams Arena at Minges Col-<lb />
iseum lately. See anything?<lb />
Anybody? Didn't think so.<lb />
Since coming to Greenville,<lb />
Bill Herrion's task has been an<lb />
immense one. It's like his team<lb />
is trying to learn the fourth level<lb />
of a foreign language, but haven't<lb />
been taught the simple grammar.<lb />
Herrion can teach his team how<lb />
to win next year when the con-<lb />
ference loses its top five current<lb />
standings.<lb />
Maybe Holland understands<lb />
what athletic directors at schools<lb />
like Boston College, Mississippi<lb />
and N.C. State can't figure out.<lb />
In competition, there is a winner<lb />
and a loser, no matter what<lb />
conference you play in. And<lb />
when it boils down to it, win-<lb />
ning will consistently produce<lb />
positives in every aspect for your<lb />
athletic programs than being<lb />
mediocre and in an elite confer-<lb />
ence will.<lb />
The best way to win is to<lb />
find competition you know you<lb />
can beat.<lb />

place. Sometimes under pressure<lb />
you get flustered. You better make<lb />
the good plays, but you better not<lb />
make the mistakes, and that's what<lb />
we've done in the postseason <lb />
Brady also still plays with the<lb />
chip on his shoulder that comes<lb />
from being a sixth-round pick, the<lb />
199th player taken, in the 2000 draft<lb />
after a career at Michigan where<lb />
he had to battle for playing time<lb />
and thought about transferring.<lb />
"That isa big part of it he said.<lb />
"A lot of times I think, as a<lb />
player, when no one else believes<lb />
in you and no one else thinks<lb />
you are capable, you really have<lb />
to believe in yourself. Because<lb />
of that, you are trying to prove<lb />
things to yourself as a competitor<lb />
and as an athlete.<lb />
"From my standpoint, I am<lb />
always trying to prove to myself<lb />
that I am capable of leading a<lb />
team to a win, and capable of<lb />
doing everything the team asks<lb />
of me, and in this case, to beat<lb />
the best team in football on the<lb />
road in the most important game<lb />
of the year. So I am trying to<lb />
prove that stuff to myself, too. It<lb />
is not like you win and then you<lb />
say, "OK, well, I've done it<lb />
