I Some things to consider<lb />
The life and times of Coretta Scott King were fondly remembered Friday by a variety of people, including<lb />
Memorial held in Hendrix<lb />
CLAYTON BAUMAN<lb />
STAFF WRITER<lb />
ECU students, faculty and<lb />
area officials gathered in remem-<lb />
brance of the life and work of<lb />
Coretta Scott King Friday rriorn-<lb />
ing in Hendrix Theater.<lb />
The near hour-long ceremony<lb />
began with a Microsoft Power<lb />
Point presentation. The presenta-<lb />
tion included famous voice clips<lb />
of King complete with famous<lb />
pictures of the civil rights activist.<lb />
"Today we assemble to remem-<lb />
ber the first lady of the civil rights<lb />
movement said Taffye Benson<lb />
Clayton, assistant to the Provost<lb />
EEOADA Compliance Officer.<lb />
Clayton played a key role in the<lb />
presentation taking place.<lb />
Dr. Marilyn Sheerer, dean<lb />
of the College of Education and<lb />
interim vice chancellor for insti-<lb />
tutional advancement, provided<lb />
opening remarks.<lb />
"She and Dr. King had<lb />
such power in their words<lb />
said Sheerer.<lb />
"She knew who she was and<lb />
understood her purpose in life<lb />
M. Cole Jones, president of the<lb />
Student Government Association,<lb />
introduced the keynote speaker.<lb />
The keynote speaker was<lb />
Congressman G.K. Butterfield of<lb />
the first district. The representa-<lb />
tive had recently returned from<lb />
King's funeral.<lb />
"It's good to be back and see<lb />
all of you said Butterfield.<lb />
"When you talk about Dr.<lb />
Martin Luther King, Jr out of<lb />
necessity, you must talk about<lb />
his wife and life mate Coretta<lb />
Scott King<lb />
The congressman went on<lb />
to talk about many historic<lb />
moments of the civil rights era,<lb />
namely the passage of the equal<lb />
voting rights.act. He emphasized<lb />
its historic significance and<lb />
Coretta's motivating demeanor.<lb />
"Coretta Scott King was key<lb />
in motivating Martin Luther<lb />
King, Jr in his endeavor for equal<lb />
voting rights sail) Butterfield.<lb />
He went on to discuss how<lb />
the first district is one of the<lb />
poorest in the country.<lb />
"We have a lot of work to do<lb />
in eastern North Carolina. We've<lb />
made tremendous progress. We<lb />
have work to do<lb />
The congressman cited Presi-<lb />
dent Bush as part of the reason,<lb />
emphasizingthehugesumofmoney<lb />
that is spent in Iraq every week.<lb />
"The president refuses to talk<lb />
about tax cuts Butterfield said.<lb />
The congressman was followed<lb />
by the ECU Gospel Ensemble,<lb />
who provided a spirited and soul-<lb />
ful selection fitting for the event.<lb />
A personal reflection was then<lb />
provided by Regina Twine, presi-<lb />
Congressman G.K. Butterfield.<lb />
dent of the Black Student Union.<lb />
She discussed that despite<lb />
her age, she can still appreciate<lb />
Coretta Scott King.<lb />
"I am not too young to under-<lb />
stand the mark Coretta Scott<lb />
King made. We, as a young gen-<lb />
eration, need to take up the torch<lb />
for peace said Twine.<lb />
Following Twine was Dr. Glen<lb />
Gilbert, dean of the College of<lb />
Health and Human Performance,<lb />
with closing remarks.<lb />
"Clearly Coretta Scott King was<lb />
a woman of courage said Gilbert.<lb />
Dr. Gilbert discussed some of<lb />
the more personal moments in<lb />
Mrs. King's life, such as how Dr.<lb />
King had to wait six months for<lb />
Coretta to accept his proposal.<lb />
The presentation thereafter<lb />
concluded with refreshments<lb />

2 CLAIRE MURPHY<lb />
 STAFF WRITER<lb />
It is very important to many<lb />
college students to maintain a<lb />
healthy lifestyle while living<lb />
away from home. We all know<lb />
you need fruits and vegetables,<lb />
but when it comes to the holiday<lb />
of chocolates and fancy dinners,<lb />
what can you do instead of going<lb />
on a candy binge? Simply having<lb />
chocolate covered strawberries,<lb />
cherries or bananas is better for<lb />
you than chocolate covered cara-<lb />
mel or marshmallows.<lb />
Eating healthy seems to be<lb />
difficult when your mom isn't<lb />
making you do it, but it is a<lb />
crucial way of life. A balanced<lb />
diet gives you'energy, helps you<lb />
concentrate, helps maintain<lb />
healthy weight and reduces your<lb />
risk of many diseases such as<lb />
type-two diabetes, obesity and<lb />
some cancers. Keep portion sizes<lb />
small and don't go overboard<lb />
with the fried food. Grilled and<lb />
baked options are a much better<lb />
choice.<lb />
When it comes to going<lb />
out on a dinner date with<lb />
your valentine, go for a salad<lb />
with grilled chicken and a<lb />
diet soda. You can get full and<lb />
not fat. It's a dream come true.<lb />
Fish is also packed with<lb />
vitamins and minerals. Even if<lb />
you think it tastes like wet sand,<lb />
I find that ketchup can fix almost<lb />
any problem (unless you are in<lb />
need of hair gel, then forget I<lb />
mentioned it). If you have to<lb />
get the chicken fingers, go with<lb />
broccoli instead of fries and water<lb />
instead of sweat tea.<lb />
This is the time of year when<lb />
everyone wants to shed some<lb />
baggage, so why not start feel-<lb />
ing hotter and healthier while<lb />
having fun with the one you<lb />
love?<lb />
Take a jog instead of a nap<lb />
and drink skim milk instead<lb />
of whole. Even if you don't see<lb />
physical results immediately, you<lb />
will feel on top of the world.<lb />

STAFF WRITER<lb />
The ECU Student Govern-<lb />
ment Association held their<lb />
15th meeting in the Mendenhall<lb />
multi-purpose room yesterday.<lb />
Many important issues were<lb />
discussed and recognized by all<lb />
of the senators. Four new sena-<lb />
tors were officially sworn in at<lb />
the beginning of the meeting.<lb />
There were many opportu-<lb />
nities to ask questions. Several<lb />
people took advantage of this<lb />
time. There are a lot of issues<lb />
being processed that I had no<lb />
idea were happening here.<lb />
Dr. Al Smith was one of the<lb />
first speakers and discussed<lb />
the "pirate connection This<lb />
idea proposed a way for ECU<lb />
to retain more students from<lb />
their freshman year until gradu-<lb />
atloxu Ine answei seemed to<lb />
simply be to "get the students<lb />
more involved said Dr. Smith.<lb />
Steps have been taken to send<lb />
out information about all of<lb />
the organizations on campus<lb />
to upcoming freshmen. It was<lb />
also suggested to send this<lb />
information to all undergrads<lb />
and transfer students. Any<lb />
ideas can be given to Dr. Smith<lb />
at his office in room 214 in<lb />
Mendenhall.<lb />
One of the main proposals<lb />
of the evening was the idea of<lb />
providing free music download-<lb />
ing for ECU students. ITCSand<lb />
Campus Living have already<lb />
met and are excited to try a<lb />
Ruckus pilot starting after spring<lb />
break. Ruckus is an online music<lb />
library with more than 1.5 mil-<lb />
lion songs available. It will be<lb />
available for free to students<lb />
living on campus and for $10<lb />
per semester for off-campus stu-<lb />
dents. There will also be a movie<lb />
subscription that will only be<lb />
available on campus for $15<lb />
per semester. The movies you<lb />
can download are full sxieen<lb />
with good quality. Ruckus is<lb />
compatible with almost all<lb />
portable players except for<lb />
the iPod. This is because of<lb />
iPod's strict policy with Apple.<lb />
Most of you know that ECU<lb />
uses Apple products and pro-<lb />
vides a discount on il'ods. It<lb />
was mentioned at the meeting<lb />
that it is very possible for the<lb />
school to do the same thing<lb />
with other devices in the future<lb />
to enhance the convenience<lb />
of Ruckus. There will also be a<lb />
faculty music subscription avail-<lb />
able for $5.99 a month frorri any<lb />
location. Subscriptions have to<lb />
be updated regularly and must<lb />
be canceled if you do not want<lb />
it anymore, are graduating or are<lb />
not returning to ECU.<lb />
If there is an organization<lb />
that you are a part of that you<lb />
know is not represented by SGA,<lb />
you can go to 109 Mendenhall<lb />
and make sure your group is<lb />
included.<lb />

Last Saturday night, the ECU<lb />
Folk and Country Dancers and<lb />
the Folk and Arts Society of<lb />
Greenville sponsored a contra<lb />
dancing event, which included<lb />
a potluck dinner, concert, begin-<lb />
ner's lesson and a two-hour long<lb />
dance session. The event was held<lb />
at the Willis Building in down-<lb />
town Greenville and was one of<lb />
six bi-monthly contra sessions to<lb />
be held this spring. The contra<lb />
dances, which are one of several<lb />
types of dances put on by these<lb />
two organizations, are held on<lb />
the second Saturday and fourth<lb />
Friday of each month and have<lb />
been taking place throughout<lb />
the year.<lb />
Contra dancing derives from<lb />
English and Scottish country<lb />
dancing and holds some resem-<lb />
blance to American square danc-<lb />
ing. The basic structure of the<lb />
dance calls for two parallel lines<lb />
of participants, requiring that<lb />
one be accompanied by a part-<lb />
ner. Participants move through<lb />
the lines with their partners and<lb />
follow a simple dance sequence,<lb />
repeating with a new set of part-<lb />
ners every rotation. This repeti-<lb />
tion allows for each participant<lb />
to dance with every individual<lb />
in both lines and, essentially,<lb />
every individual in the room. The<lb />

Enron proceedings underway<lb />
as the blame is examined<lb />
Who is responsible?<lb />
LEE SCHWARZ<lb />
STAFF WRITER<lb />
Surely four years after the<lb />
second largest corporate account-<lb />
ing scandal in Corporate Ameri-<lb />
can history, nearly everyone<lb />
has at least heard of Enron.<lb />
What a shame Enron's fall from<lb />
power was. Enron was founded<lb />
in 1985 in Houston, Texas and<lb />
looked to potentially be placed<lb />
on the prestigious Dow Jones<lb />
30, which is comprised of the 30<lb />
largest companies in America.<lb />
However, through the use<lb />
of offshore entities, which are<lb />
subsidies that a company places<lb />
out in other companies to avoid<lb />
taxation - there are more than<lb />
60 countries in the world that<lb />
charge little or no corporate taxes<lb />
on foreign subsidies - Enron hid<lb />
its losses from mis-management<lb />
of the business. Enron's stock<lb />
price climbed as high as $90 per<lb />
share in August 2000 based upon<lb />
inaccurate earnings which failed<lb />
to reflect losing entities. Former<lb />
Enron CFO Andrew Fastow was<lb />
in charge of creating these vir-<lb />
tual "dummy" companies. New<lb />
accounting legislation called the<lb />
Sarbanes-Oxley act was passed in<lb />
2002 to impose tighter regulation<lb />
on accounting and to crack down<lb />
on white-collar crimes.<lb />
Former CEO Ken Lay is<lb />
charged with using insider trad-<lb />
ing, which occurs when a cor-<lb />
porate officer uses non-public<lb />
information in stock trades for<lb />
his own benefit, to make $70 mil-<lb />
lion. The Insiiier Trading Act 135<lb />
of 1998 in addition to the SEC act<lb />
of 1934, strictly prohibits these<lb />
practices as part of the sweeping<lb />

Nearly two feet of snow falls on<lb />
N.C. mountains, border towns<lb />
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) - A weekend<lb />
snowstorm brought nearly two feet<lb />
of snow to the mountains of western<lb />
North Carolina by Monday morning,<lb />
with a few more inches expected<lb />
before the weather system dissipated,<lb />
probably by the end of the day.<lb />
In Buncombe County, western North<lb />
Carolina's biggest city, Asheville,<lb />
got only an inch of accumulation by<lb />
Monday morning, according to the<lb />
National Weather Service in Greer,<lb />
S.C. Much more fell in the nearby<lb />
higher elevations, with 24 inches<lb />
reported near Banner Elk.<lb />
Glade Mountain, eight miles north of<lb />
the Haywood County town of Canton,<lb />
reported 18 inches, and even towns<lb />
near Asheville in Buncombe County<lb />
got their fair share 9.5 inches in<lb />
Weaverville and 7 inches in Candler,<lb />
meteorologist John Tomko said.<lb />
The state Highway Patrol reported no<lb />
fatal incidents on slippery mountain<lb />
roads as of Monday morning. No<lb />
significant power outages were<lb />
reported by Progress Energy and<lb />
Duke Power as of Monday morning.<lb />
With snow continuing along the<lb />
Tennessee border and another<lb />
couple of inches of accumulation<lb />
in the forecast, the Greer office was<lb />
preparing another winter weather<lb />
advisory at mid-morning, Tomko<lb />
said.<lb />
In the state's southwestern mountains,<lb />
Robbinsville got 20 inches of snow.<lb />
Heavy snow with drifts to six feet<lb />
deep closed the Cherohala Skyway<lb />
a scenic route from the Tennessee<lb />
border to U.S. Highway 129 near<lb />

Navy plans test flights at landing<lb />
field site<lb />
PLYMOUTH, N.C. (AP) - The Navy<lb />
said it will conduct more flight tests<lb />
this week at a landing field site in<lb />
Washington and Beaufort counties<lb />
as it gathers more environmental<lb />
information as ordered by a federal<lb />
judge.<lb />
Flights Monday and Wednesday<lb />
will begin about 9 p.m. and last<lb />
about an hour. Flights on Tuesday<lb />
will start in the afternoon over the<lb />
Navy's preferred site for an outlying<lb />
landing field.<lb />
These flights are designed to collect<lb />
empirical data on aircraft noise levels<lb />
and responses of migratory waterfowl<lb />
to visual and-or noise stimuli from FA-<lb />
18 EF Super Hornet flight operations<lb />
a Navy statement said.<lb />
"Data collected will support the<lb />
assessment of potential impacts on<lb />
migratory waterfowl from construction<lb />
and operation of an OLF at sites near<lb />
migratory waterfowl populations and<lb />
to observe noise effects of jet aircraft<lb />
on waterfowl<lb />
The field would be used by jets<lb />
stationed at Oceana Naval Air Station<lb />
in Virginia Beach, Va and at Marine<lb />
Corps Air Station Cherry Point in<lb />
North Carolina. The planes would use<lb />
the strip to simulate night landings on<lb />
aircraft carriers.<lb />
More test flights and environmental<lb />
studies were conducted by the Navy<lb />
after a judge said the service hadn't<lb />
sufficiently studied the impact of the<lb />
field on a nearby wildlife refuge that<lb />
is the winter home for thousands of<lb />
geese and swans.<lb />
The Navy said it plans to complete<lb />
the new study in August.<lb />

Five agencies reviewing<lb />
classified evidence In White<lb />
House aide's case<lb />
WASHINGTON (AP) - Five government<lb />
agencies are reviewing classified<lb />
evidence that I. Lewis "Scooter"<lb />
Libby may want to use at his trial<lb />
to fight perjury and obstruction-of-<lb />
justice charges, according to a court<lb />
transcript made public Monday.<lb />
During a Feb. 3 hearing, Special<lb />
Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald told<lb />
a federal judge that the review of<lb />
classified materials is being done by<lb />
the CIA, National Security Council,<lb />

Helpful tips for making a<lb />

LAURA MORSCH<lb />
CAREERBUJLDER.COM WRITER<lb />
After four (or more) years of<lb />
college, that diploma is so close<lb />
you can taste it. And that means<lb />
a bitter reality: Ready or not, it's<lb />
time to find a job.<lb />
Fortunately for this year's<lb />
seniors, 62 percent of hiring<lb />
managers plan to recruit recent<lb />
college graduates in 2005, and 28<lb />
percent say they will be increas-<lb />
ing starting salaries over those<lb />
offered last year, according to a<lb />
recent survey by online job board<lb />
CareerBuilder.com.<lb />
Still, competition will be tight<lb />
for jobs in many industries, and<lb />
to get an edge on their classmates,<lb />
candidates should leverage every<lb />
advantage they have. Career-<lb />
Builder asked hiring managers for<lb />
the top five things they look for<lb />
when hiring new graduates. Here<lb />
are their answers, and some ways<lb />
college seniors can use them to<lb />
maximize their job search.<lb />
1. Relevant Experience<lb />
Twenty-eight percent of<lb />
hiring managers cited relevant<lb />
experience as their most impor-<lb />
tant factor in the hiring decision.<lb />
"Unfortunately, college gradu-<lb />
ates often underestimate the<lb />
experience they have through<lb />
internships, part-time jobs and<lb />
extracurricular activities said<lb />
Matt Ferguson, CareerBuilder's<lb />
CEO.<lb />
According to the Career-<lb />
Builder survey, 63 percent of<lb />
hiring managers say they con-<lb />
sider volunteer work to be rel-<lb />
evant experience. For students<lb />
without much direct experience,<lb />
a functional resume, which<lb />
highlights a student's abilities<lb />
rather than work history, Is a<lb />
good choicei<lb />
2. Professionalism During the<lb />
Interview<lb />
If new graduates want to be<lb />
treated as professionals, they<lb />
need to dress and act the part.<lb />

president.<lb />
The outcome of those reviews will<lb />
determine whether the case against<lb />
Ubby, Vice President Dick Cheney's<lb />
former chief of staff, gets bogged<lb />
down in a legal battle pitting the<lb />
government's desire to protect<lb />
national security secrets against a<lb />
defendant's right to a fair trial.<lb />
Ubby, 55, was indicted late last year<lb />
on charges that he lied about how he<lb />
learned CIA operative Valerie Plame's<lb />
identity and when he subsequently<lb />
told reporters.<lb />
Plame's identity was published<lb />
in July 2003 by columnist Robert<lb />
Novak after her husband, former<lb />
U.S. Ambassador Joseph Wilson,<lb />
accused the administration of twisting<lb />
intelligence about Iraq's efforts to buy<lb />
uranium "yellowcake" in Niger. The<lb />
year before, the CIA had sent Wilson<lb />
to Niger to determine the accuracy of<lb />
the uranium reports.<lb />
Ubby's trial is set for January 2007.<lb />
The case against Libby is on two<lb />
tracks one public, one secret. U.S.<lb />
District Judge Reggie B. Walton and<lb />
lawyers for both sides went into a<lb />
secret session after a public hearing<lb />
Feb. 3 to discuss classified evidence<lb />
that could play a role in the case.<lb />
Ga. woman who married<lb />
teenager gives birth to couple's<lb />
baby, lawyer says<lb />
ATLANTA (AP) - A woman accused of<lb />
molesting a 15-year-old boy she later<lb />
married gave birth to the couple's<lb />
child over the weekend, the woman's<lb />
lawyer said Monday.<lb />
Lisa Clark, 37, gave birth to a 7-<lb />
pourfd, 9-ounce boy Saturday, Daniel<lb />
Samrnons said.<lb />
The baby could be put in state<lb />
custody unless Clark can arrange the<lb />
necessary paperwork for a friend to<lb />
take temporary custody before Clark<lb />
is discharged from the hospital and<lb />
returned to jail, where she will be held<lb />
without bond, Samrnons said.<lb />
"Right now, she's struggling with the<lb />
trauma of having the child torn loose<lb />
from her arms and possibly placed<lb />
in foster care while she goes back to<lb />
jail Samrnons said in a telephone<lb />
interview.<lb />
Clark's teenage husband turned<lb />
up in Ohio earlier this month after<lb />
disappearing from a juvenile home in<lb />
Georgia. It was not immediately clear<lb />
where he was Monday.<lb />
District Attorney Lee Darragh did not<lb />
return calls seeking comment.<lb />
Aspokeswoman forGeorgia's Division<lb />
of Family and Children Services said<lb />
the agency was not currently involved<lb />
in the case.<lb />
Clark and the boy she is accused<lb />
of molesting married in November.<lb />
Georgia law allows children<lb />
regardless of age to wed if there is<lb />
a pregnancy.<lb />
Clark had been free on bond, but<lb />
was arrested again last week after<lb />
authorities said she had been<lb />
communicating with her husband in<lb />
violation of a condition of her release.<lb />
Arraignment was set for Feb. 24.<lb />
World<lb />
Saddam back In courtroom,<lb />
lashes out at Bush, Judge<lb />
BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) - Prosecutors<lb />
tried to link Saddam Hussein directly<lb />
to torture and executions, producing<lb />
documents with his orders and<lb />
handwriting and putting one of his<lb />
closest confidants on the stand<lb />
Monday.<lb />
The former Iraqi leader and his co-<lb />
defendants were forced to attend<lb />
the session. Saddam appeared in a<lb />
traditional Arab robe and bedroom<lb />
slippers instead of his usual crisp suit,<lb />
arguing vehemently with the judge<lb />
and shouting "Down with Bush as<lb />
he waved his finger.<lb />
His top co-defendant and half<lb />
brother, Barzan Ibrahim dressed<lb />
only in long underwear struggled<lb />
with guards as he was pulled into the<lb />
courtroom. Ibrahim, the former chief<lb />
of intelligence, then sat on the floor<lb />
with his back to the judge in protest<lb />
for much of the session.<lb />
The defendants have rejected<lb />
court-appointed attorneys named<lb />
to replace their own lawyers who<lb />
walked out of the trial last month,<lb />
and are demanding the removal of<lb />
chief judge Rouf Abdel-Rahman.<lb />
In Jordan, Saddam's chief defense<lb />
lawyer said there were no plans to<lb />
end the boycott and denounced the<lb />
court for forcing the former leader<lb />
to attend.<lb />
"This is a cheap attitude Khaled al-<lb />
Dulaimi told The Associated Press.<lb />
After the raucous start, prosecutors<lb />
made their strongest attempt yet to<lb />
prove Saddam's role in a wave of<lb />
arrests and executions that followed<lb />
a 1982 attempt on his life in the Shiite<lb />
village of Dujail.<lb />
Twenty-six prosecution witnesses<lb />
have testified since the Saddam<lb />
trial began Oct. 19, many providing<lb />
accounts of torture and imprisonment<lb />
in the crackdown, but they could not<lb />
directly pin them on Saddam.<lb />
Pro-Preval protests erupt In<lb />
Haitian capital; at least one dead<lb />
PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (AP) -<lb />
Supporters of Haitian presidential<lb />
candidate Rene Preval erected<lb />
smoldering roadblocks across the<lb />
capital and occupied a luxury hotel<lb />
Monday. At least one protester was<lb />
killed, but U.N. peacekeepers denied<lb />
witness accounts that they had shot<lb />
him.<lb />
As Port-au-Prince descended into<lb />
chaos, Preval returned to the capital<lb />
for the first time since Tuesday's<lb />
election. He was the clear winner<lb />
with about 90 percent of the votes<lb />
counted, but supporters claimed<lb />
electoral officials were tampering with<lb />
results to prevent him from getting the<lb />
majority he needs to avoid a runoff.<lb />
Barricades made of old tires were<lb />
ablaze across the capital, sending<lb />
plumes of acrid black smoke into the<lb />
sky. Protesters let only journalists and<lb />
Red Cross vehicles pass.<lb />
"If they don't give us the final results,<lb />
we're going to burn this country<lb />
down a protester screamed.<lb />
The election will replace an interim<lb />
government installed after President<lb />
Jean-Bertrand Aristide was ousted in<lb />
a bloody rebellion two years ago. A<lb />
popularly elected government with a<lb />
clear mandate from the voters is seen<lb />
as crucial to avoiding a political and<lb />
economic meltdown in the Western<lb />
Hemisphere's poorest nation. Gangs<lb />
have gone on kidnapping sprees,<lb />
and factories have closed for lack<lb />
of security.<lb />

from page A2<lb />
(KRT)  When "My Name<lb />
Is Earl" star Jaime Pressly traveled<lb />
to her native Kinston, N.C for<lb />
the holidays last December, she<lb />
didn't know exactly what kind of<lb />
reaction she'd elicit among the red-<lb />
state citizenry. After all, her sitcom<lb />
character Joy, a brassy blonde<lb />
bombshell, is married to Darnell<lb />
(aka Crab Man), a laid-back black<lb />
guy and, well, she was braced for<lb />
at least a little flak.<lb />
Instead, she was smothered<lb />
with enthusiastic inquiries about<lb />
her onscreen mate, played by<lb />
Eddie Steeples.<lb />
"Everywhere I went it was,<lb />
'Hey, where's Crab Man? Is he<lb />
coming to visit?' 'Oh, he's cool<lb />
'That's a good 'fro he's got going<lb />
she recalls. "Yeah, they just love<lb />
Crab Man<lb />
Similarly, Steeples says he<lb />
doesn't hear much feedback about<lb />
the interracial pairing from the<lb />
public. "To be honest he says, "I<lb />
usually get 'Man, she's hot, huh?<lb />
This matter-of-fact acceptance<lb />
comes as good news to television<lb />
writers and producers who are<lb />
shrugging off hoary concerns<lb />
about alienating viewers and<lb />
advertisers as they allow love to<lb />
bloom between characters of all<lb />
races and cultures. Of course,<lb />
anyone who has seen "I Love Lucy"<lb />
or "The Jeffersons" knows this isn't<lb />
exactly groundbreaking stuff, but<lb />
with Valentine's Day upon us, it's<lb />
worth noting that TV's portrait of<lb />
romance is, more than ever, one of<lb />
blended colors.<lb />
A highly compelling coupling<lb />
on the hit medical drama "Grey's<lb />
Anatomy" involves a black man<lb />
and an Asian woman. The critically<lb />
acclaimed sitcom "Scrubs" features<lb />
a marriage between a Latina and<lb />
a black man. On "ER which has<lb />
long been a monument to diver-<lb />
sity, a woman of Indian descent is<lb />
married to a black man.<lb />
And those are just a few exam-<lb />
ples involving key characters. Toss<lb />
in all the various and far-flung tan-<lb />
gential depictions and the interra-<lb />
cial canvas becomes even broader.<lb />
One of the most touching scenes<lb />
on "Lost" this season featured the<lb />
surprise reunion of Rose, a black<lb />
woman, and Bernard, her white<lb />
husband. On "Gilmore Girls the<lb />
Korean teen, Lane Kim, just went<lb />
through a messy breakup with<lb />
her white boyfriend. Meanwhile,<lb />
there's "Will &amp; Grace which<lb />
recently had Will planting a big<lb />
smooch on a black man played by<lb />
Taye Diggs.<lb />
Several industry observers<lb />
are applauding the trend. Lillian<lb />
Jackson, who writes a "Diversity<lb />
Detail" column for the publication<lb />
Television Week, spotlighted it as<lb />
one of TV's major "breakthroughs<lb />
or advances" of the 2005-06 season.<lb />
And Dr. Todd Boyd, a professor of<lb />
critical studies at the University<lb />
of Southern California's School of<lb />
Cinema-Television, said recently<lb />
in a interview with National Public<lb />
Radio that he thinks Hollywood<lb />
is being "more open-minded and<lb />
perhaps more progressive and will-<lb />
ing to represent things" differently<lb />
than they have in the past.<lb />
Of course, in the not-so-dis-<lb />
tant past, such onscreen couplings<lb />
occasionally stirred up markedly<lb />
different reactions. In 1999, for<lb />
example, Eriq La Salle, then one of<lb />
the main stars of "ER made head-<lb />
lines when he prodded producers<lb />
to end his character's interracial<lb />
romance with a white woman,<lb />
played by Alex Kingston, because<lb />
he was "not comfortable" with the<lb />
message it sent to black people. And<lb />
Aaron Sorkin, creator of "The West<lb />
Wing has spoken of the hate mail<lb />
he received when he introduced a<lb />
story line that had the president's<lb />
young white daughter kissing a black<lb />
presidential aide.<lb />
But 38 years after Captain<lb />
Kirk raised eyebrows by kissing<lb />
the sexy - and black - Lieuten-<lb />
ant Uhura on "Star Trek people<lb />
generally are making less of a fuss<lb />
about interracial relationships<lb />
on television and in real life. In<lb />
the past 20 years, the number of<lb />
interracial marriages has climbed<lb />
from fewer than 700,000 couples<lb />
to 1.7 million, according to<lb />
the U.S. Census Bureau. That<lb />
number is likely to rise because,<lb />
as sociologists point out, the<lb />
world is becoming more of a<lb />
melting pot, and young people<lb />
tend to be more blind to race<lb />
when it comes to relationships.<lb />
Wanting to be in tune with<lb />
what's going on in the real world,<lb />
television writers - along with their<lb />
feature-film counterparts - not only<lb />
have become less hesitant to cross<lb />
the color line, but they're mostly<lb />
handling interracial relationships<lb />
in an offhanded manner, refusing<lb />
to make race much of an issue.<lb />
On "Grey's Anatomy for exam-<lb />
ple, other differences between live-<lb />
in mates Cristina Yang (Sandra Oh)<lb />
and Preston Burke (Isaiah Washing-<lb />
ton) have been emphasized: He's<lb />
neat; she's messy; he's quietly arro-<lb />
gant; she's openly abrasive; he has a<lb />
sense of spirituality; she doesn't.<lb />
"It's incredibly encouraging<lb />
that our viewers haven't gotten<lb />
hung up on the race thing says<lb />
"Grey's Anatomy" creator Shonda<lb />
Rhimes, the only black woman<lb />

Interracial relationships have been<lb />
happening since the beginning of<lb />
mankind, and it's great to see tele-<lb />
vision becoming less conservative<lb />
when it comes to the subject<lb />
The "Grey's Anatomy"<lb />
approach is prevalent throughout<lb />
prime time. A recent episode of<lb />
"Supernatural" featured a sizzling<lb />
sex scene between one of the show's<lb />
white male leads and a black guest<lb />
star. Later, the characters acknowl-<lb />
edged that their hot-cold rela-<lb />
tionship had its pitfalls, but race<lb />
wasn't mentioned as one of them.<lb />
Similarly, Joy and Darnell occa-<lb />
sionally lock horns on "Earl but<lb />
skin color hasn't been a factor so<lb />
far. As for "ER producer David<lb />
Zabel recently told USA Today that<lb />
"we don't even talk about (race)<lb />
or consider that it's an interracial<lb />
relationship" when they deal with<lb />
characters played by Parminder<lb />
Nagra and Sharif Atkins.<lb />
While some consider this color-<lb />
blind treatment to be noble- a way<lb />
of normalizing such relationships<lb />
- others consider it to be a cop-out.<lb />
They insist that the medium is too<lb />
reluctant to wrestle with the chal-<lb />
lenges and complexities of such<lb />
unions.<lb />
"Face it, some writers are just<lb />
afraid of going there says Eric<lb />
Deggans, a media critic for the<lb />
St. Petersburg Times. "Taking on<lb />
cultural differences isn't easy, so<lb />
they simply make believe they<lb />
don't exist<lb />
Deggans, a black man, has<lb />
been married to a white woman<lb />
for nearly 15 years. He says that<lb />
even in the most cosmopolitan<lb />
of American cities, many citizens<lb />
remain race-conscious, and that<lb />
interracial couples continually<lb />
confront various forms of discrimi-<lb />
nation when in public andor when<lb />
families mingle.<lb />
"When 1 see shows that dwell<lb />
in a universe that doesn't actually<lb />
exist, it feels somewhat artificial<lb />
and it takes me out of the show<lb />
he says. "In the future, I'd like to see<lb />
producers take more chances and<lb />
take the blinders off. To me, that<lb />
would make for great drama<lb />
He might get his wish, because<lb />
TV has more interracial subject<lb />
matter on the way. Comedian<lb />
George Lopez recently struck a<lb />
deal with ABC to produce a sitcom<lb />
starring Lisa, Christina and Tanya<lb />
Vidal about an interracial family of<lb />
three adult sisters and their spouses.<lb />
Meanwhile, the forthcoming WB<lb />
drama "The Bedford Diaries" fea-<lb />
tures scenes of a black college<lb />
freshman struggling through a<lb />
relationship with a pregnant white<lb />
girl still in high school, and an FX<lb />
drama called "Thief" places Emmy-<lb />

marriage with a white woman.<lb />
Norman Morrill, creator and<lb />
executive producer of "Thief<lb />
says he wrote an interracial cou-<lb />
pling into the show long before<lb />
the current wave of diversified<lb />
unions hit the air. Asked why he<lb />
felt compelled to cross the color<lb />

lege students should invest in<lb />
a good, conservative business<lb />
suit and arrive at the interview<lb />
well-groomed and on time. Before<lb />
the interview, students should<lb />
have thoroughly researched<lb />
the company and prepared<lb />
answers to common interview<lb />
questions.<lb />
3. Fit Within the Company<lb />
Culture<lb />
Every company has its own<lb />
style, and hiring managers<lb />
want to be sure a candidate's<lb />
personality and work style will<lb />
blend seamlessly into the orga-<lb />
nization. Before the interview,<lb />
job seekers should visit the com-<lb />
pany's Web site to read up on<lb />
the organization's culture and<lb />
mission. New grads should also<lb />
try to talk to as many people as<lb />
possible who work for the com-<lb />
pany to try to get an insider's<lb />
perspective.<lb />
4. Education<lb />
Employers do consider where<lb />
a candidate went to school and<lb />
his or her degree, major and<lb />
GPA - so it's important to resist<lb />
slipping into senioritis. If stu-<lb />
dents have finished courses that<lb />
directly relate to the position,<lb />
they can include it on their<lb />
resume in a special "related<lb />
coursework" section.<lb />
5. Enthusiasm<lb />
New graduates should clearly<lb />
express their interest in the posi-<lb />
tion and convey the energy they<lb />
would bring to the job.<lb />
When college graduates<lb />
finally land that coveted first<lb />
job, it's important to recognize<lb />
that the first 90 days at work are<lb />
really an extended interview.<lb />
During this time, it's crucial to<lb />
make a positive, professional first<lb />
impression to management and<lb />
co-workers.<lb />
But because many new<lb />
graduates aren't accustomed to<lb />
a corporate environment, they<lb />
can make serious mistakes that<lb />
can cost them credibility or even<lb />
their jobs. According to hiring<lb />
managers, the biggest mistakes<lb />
new graduates make on their first<lb />
three months on board are:<lb />
 Coming in late for work<lb />
 Presenting negative atti-<lb />
tudes to co-workers and cus-<lb />
tomers<lb />
 Spending too much time on<lb />
personal business at the office<lb />

stock market reform following<lb />

Four years after these alle-<lb />
gations were made public, the<lb />
beginnings of the trial of these<lb />
officers begins. There is a pleth-<lb />
ora of criminal charges leveled<lb />
against Lay, his wife and former<lb />
CEO Jeffrey Skilling. In addition<lb />
to the criminal charges, the SEC<lb />
seeks to collect compensatory<lb />
damages as well as punitive dam-<lb />
ages against the accused. Both<lb />
officers could receive decades<lb />
in jail if convicted while paying<lb />
millions of dollars in fines<lb />
Several former officers have<lb />
already confessed and been<lb />
sentenced such as former Chief<lb />
Accounting Officer Richard<lb />
Causey, who received 10 years in<lb />
jail and forfeited $23.8 million.<lb />
He received a reduced sentence<lb />
in exchange for testifying against<lb />
Lay and Skilling. Lay continues to<lb />
perpetuate his innocence saying<lb />
"I think the primary reason for<lb />
Enron's collapse was Andy Fastow<lb />
and his little group of people and<lb />
what they did<lb />
Skilling has a similar mindset<lb />
saying "Quite frankly, there is<lb />
nothing I can come up with that I<lb />
would think I would do different<lb />
given the facts I had at the time<lb />
While who is to blame in<lb />
the management of the busi-<lb />
ness Enron is also used as an<lb />
example of stock trading gone<lb />
awry. During the late 1990s<lb />
during the "Tech Bubble" many<lb />
small internet companies were<lb />
trading for incredulously high<lb />
prices when in fact that had no<lb />
earnings to speak of.<lb />
"How can Amazon.com trade<lb />
for more than Ford and GM<lb />
combined? Amazon has never<lb />
made a dime. This does not<lb />
even make sense said Warren<lb />
Buffett, the second richest man<lb />
in the world.<lb />
Buffett was criticized at<lb />
length for his refusal to enter<lb />
the tech bubble, as he is notorious<lb />
for selecting low-tech companies,<lb />
but it seems that Buffett was<lb />
right about the tech bubble as he<lb />
emerged unscathed when many<lb />
Enron's stock price was grossly<lb />
inflated on false news but the<lb />
hype was promulgated by over-<lb />
eager and greedy investors who<lb />
wanted to make a quick buck. It<lb />
is unfortunate that stock prices<lb />
are decided more so on news and<lb />
demand than on actual perfor-<lb />
mance such as earnings growth,<lb />
asset management and efficiency.<lb />
Too many times are a stock's fun-<lb />
damentals overlooked in favor of<lb />
the sexy stock pick which may not<lb />
have substance or value.<lb />

DanCe from page A1<lb />
heavy person-to-person involve-<lb />
ment reflects the basic function<lb />
of the dance, which is to promote<lb />
a communal atmosphere that is<lb />
friendly and welcoming.<lb />
Roger Rulifson, ECU biology<lb />
professor, described contra danc-<lb />
ing as a means of gathering and,<lb />
especially years ago, a way for<lb />
young people to court each other<lb />
and participate in a fun activity<lb />
that provided an atmosphere for<lb />
being intimate in a legitimate<lb />
manner.<lb />
The dance movements<lb />
involved in contra dancing<lb />
include dos-a-dos and swing,<lb />
hence the square dance com-<lb />
parison.<lb />
The dance is accompanied<lb />
by live music, which can vary<lb />
between events, but usually con-<lb />
sists of some form of old-time,<lb />
$180<lb />
Per<lb />
Month<lb />
This coupon good lor<lb />
Celtic or blue grass according to<lb />
ECU Folk and Country Dancers<lb />
president, Leanne Smith. Smith<lb />
confessed that she has even<lb />
contra danced to jazz music and<lb />
that as long as the music has a<lb />
beat, it can be applied to contra<lb />
dancing.<lb />
What is known as a caller is<lb />
also customary at contra dances<lb />
and is similar to a guide by whom<lb />
heshe teaches the dance move-<lb />
ments to participants before<lb />
the music begins? The caller<lb />
continues to guide participants<lb />
throughout the dance and may<lb />
or may not cease teaching if the<lb />
participants seem to have learned<lb />
the movements.<lb />
Individuals of all differ-<lb />
ent ages and from all different<lb />
backgrounds are drawn to the<lb />
dance, and newcomers and<lb />
experts alike take part. Actu-<lb />
ally, those who are unfamiliar<lb />
with the dance are welcomed<lb />
and expected as there are intro-<lb />
ductory sessions almost always<lb />
held before a contra dance.<lb />
Contra dancing is espe-<lb />
cially popular in New<lb />
England, where it was initially<lb />
brought to the country, but has<lb />
gained a significant following<lb />
throughout the U.S. Rulifson<lb />
let on that the Triangle area of<lb />
N.C. is host to many contra<lb />
dancing activities and that contra<lb />
cruises have just recently been<lb />
created in which the theme of<lb />
the cruise would be everything<lb />
contra.<lb />
According to Smith, contra<lb />
dancing has been an activity at<lb />
ECU since the 1970s and while<lb />
it is somewhat underground, the<lb />
events have grown in popularity<lb />
over the years. Different callers<lb />
and musicians are featured at<lb />
the bi-monthly events, and the<lb />
organizations are able to work<lb />
with regional bands in addition<lb />
to the local musicians.<lb />
Smith encourages students<lb />
to participate in the events and<lb />
welcomes all regardless of their<lb />
familiarity with the dances.<lb />
The next contra dance will take<lb />
place Friday, Feb. 24 at the Willis<lb />
Building.<lb />

TUESDAY February 14,2006<lb />
Our View<lb />
Valentine's Day:<lb />
What does it really<lb />
mean?<lb />
Everyone has their own little rituals for Valen-<lb />
tine's Day. If you are in a long-term relationship,<lb />
you and your significant other may trade Hall-<lb />
mark Kissing Bears each year or write love-filled<lb />
poems. If you are in a new relationship you may<lb />
have big, expensive plans for this romantic<lb />
day. Sometimes those who are single have<lb />
elaborate Valentine's Day plans of their own. No<lb />
matter who you are or what kind of plans you<lb />
have for February 14, it is important to remem-<lb />
ber why this day even exists and what message<lb />
we should all be sending to each other.<lb />
There are many possible creation legends<lb />
when it comes to the day that we affection-<lb />
ately call St. Valentine's Day. According to<lb />
The History Channel, the first of these legends<lb />
suggests that St. Valentine was a third century<lb />
Roman priest who lived during a time when<lb />
Claudius II decided that single men made<lb />
much stronger soldiers and forbid his soldiers<lb />
to marry. Valentine, who did not agree with this<lb />
decree, performed marriages for young lovers<lb />
in secret, thus making him the saint of love.<lb />
Another possibility is that Valentine was killed<lb />
for helping Christians escape from Roman<lb />
prisons where the Christians were being beaten<lb />
and tortured, allowing them to be reunited<lb />
with their loved ones. In another legend, St.<lb />
Valentine was in prison, where he fell in love<lb />
with a prison guard's daughter with whom he<lb />
wrote love notes that he signed "From your<lb />
Valentine Whether one of these legends is<lb />
the true origin or if the truth is still unknown,<lb />
the moral of the story remains the same - love<lb />
will overcome all.<lb />
That statement can apply in many different<lb />
situations and in many different types of rela-<lb />
tionships - love between friends, love between<lb />
girls, love between guys, love between family<lb />
members and love between lovers. This<lb />
Valentine's Day, remember and cherish all of<lb />
the love in your life.<lb />

Opinion Columnist<lb />
Park it right there, Mister or not<lb />
Night time apparently<lb />
not the right time<lb />
DANIEL BROCK<lb />
OPINION COLUMNIST<lb />
Why is it that every time I see<lb />
an ECU vehicle with "Parking and<lb />
Transportation" slapped on the<lb />
side, I hear the theme from Jaws?<lb />
Parking and Transportation vehicles<lb />
slowly circle the campus looking<lb />
I for their prey, and when they spot<lb />
an illegally parked car they make a<lb />
bee-line for it. The flashing light on<lb />
top of the PStT vehicles cuts through<lb />
1 the air like a shark fin through the<lb />
water, and the perilously parked<lb />
automobile is left with a ticket that<lb />
generally ranges between $5-$35.<lb />
The Fourth Reich, as the ECU<lb />
Department of Parking and Trans-<lb />
portation is sometimes affection-<lb />
ately referred to, rules automobile<lb />
activity on campus with an iron<lb />
fist. Ticketing first and asking<lb />
questions  well, never, the Park-<lb />
ing Gestapo roams the campus<lb />
seeking those they may devour.<lb />
Commandant Mike VanDerven<lb />
rules the "Axel of Evil" from his<lb />
palatial offices on 10th Street,<lb />
dispatching his Parking Control<lb />
Officers across campus like they<lb />
were Black Riders issuing forth<lb />
from the gates of Mordor. They<lb />
administer their citations with an<lb />
insidious glee that stokes the fire of<lb />
hate in their souls. Alright, they're<lb />
just doing their job, but they do<lb />
seem to take a certain perverse<lb />
pleasure in it. The foot soldiers<lb />
are professionally uniformed and<lb />
outfitted with high tech ticket<lb />
dispensers. Such well-dressed<lb />
henchmen lead me to envision<lb />
VanDerven sitting in a high-<lb />
backed leather chair, sporting a<lb />
monocle, a riding crop and a uni-<lb />
form festooned with iron crosses.<lb />
The ECU Department of Park-<lb />
ing and Transportation Services<lb />
does not beat around the bush,<lb />
and if you park around the bush<lb />
(or most any other place on<lb />
campus) you're more than likely<lb />
going to get ticketed or towed.<lb />
There are no excuses and no<lb />
tolerance in the Department of<lb />
P flt T. It doesn't matter if your<lb />
dog was still in the car, or your<lb />
baby was in the backseat. If you<lb />
infringe on their domain, thou<lb />
shalt surely be towed.<lb />
I'm not saying these people<lb />
take themselves too seriously,<lb />
but after reading the Parking and<lb />
Transportation Ordinance, one gets<lb />
the feeling that the fine people at<lb />
P&amp;T think it is a divinely inspired<lb />
document. There are 17 articles<lb />
and 42 fineable offenses in the<lb />
P&amp;T Ordinance (my favorite is 42-<lb />
Trick Riding of Bicycles). As points<lb />
of reference, there were seven<lb />
articles in the original American<lb />
Constitution and a mere 10 Com-<lb />
mandments. However, the P&amp;T<lb />
Ordinance is a complex document<lb />
containing sub-sections and para-<lb />
graphs as well as the main Articles<lb />
with such menacing titles as "Pun-<lb />
ishment" and "Enforcement<lb />
P&amp;T does have a Citations<lb />
Appeals Board where one can<lb />
grovel before them in hopes of<lb />
reducing their citation or (laugh-<lb />
ably) request a total annulment.<lb />
The Citation Board of Appeals<lb />
makes the Spanish Inquisition<lb />
seem lame. You can go before<lb />
them with your hat in your hand<lb />
if you would like, but they might<lb />
ticket you for that too.<lb />
Enforcing rules and regula-<lb />
tions is what the people at the<lb />
P&amp;T do best in their vigilant<lb />
quest to rid the campus of per-<lb />
verse parking. Now I realize that<lb />
these rules are legitimate and are<lb />
sponsored by the university, but<lb />
the Parking Control officers are<lb />
certainly some of the most zeal-<lb />
ous ECU employees in the execu-<lb />
tion of their responsibilities.<lb />
Perhaps we should spend some of<lb />
the parking budget on additional<lb />
security measures. After all,<lb />
people deserve to be safe when<lb />
they walk to their illegally parked<lb />
vehicles in the dead of night.<lb />
Speaking of the dead of<lb />
night, after 6 p.m. parking offi-<lb />
cials should cut the public some<lb />
slack. The incident that sparked<lb />
this little diatribe occurred last<lb />
Wednesday night. I had a 6:30<lb />
p.m. class which, in my typi-<lb />
cal fashion, I was running late<lb />
for. I generally park in a spot in<lb />
between Austin and Rawl for this<lb />
class, but to my chagrin, all the<lb />
spaces were taken. I whipped my<lb />
car into a space behind Speight<lb />
and bounded off for class. Joy-<lb />
ously, I was released from class<lb />
early so I made my way back to my<lb />
vehicle (which I will not describe<lb />
in this piece for fear of retribution.<lb />
P&amp;T have eyes everywhere) under<lb />
the lights of campus. Upon reach-<lb />
ing my uh, "Festiva I saw the<lb />
familiar tan envelope under my<lb />
windshield wiper and knew that<lb />
1 had been busted. The drum roll<lb />
started as I opened the envelope<lb />
to see what the damage would be.<lb />
Sadly it was a $35 ticket, which as<lb />
of print time I have yet to pay.<lb />
A $35 fine for parking on<lb />
campus for a night class is absurd.<lb />
I'm not really interested in walk-<lb />
ing to class and getting mugged<lb />
on my way home, but P&amp;T is<lb />
throwing students to the wolves.<lb />
The same debacle is reenacted far<lb />
too often at the library. The regu-<lb />
lar parking lot, perhaps, should<lb />
be monitored after dark due to<lb />
the fact that it facilitates traffic<lb />
to both Joyner and the SRC.<lb />
However, the metered parking<lb />
should be complimentary. At that<lb />
time of night students are just<lb />
trying to augment their minds<lb />
or bodies, and isn't college really<lb />
about self improvement?<lb />
A mind worried with thoughts<lb />
of parking tickets and meter<lb />
times cannot fully concentrate<lb />
on the work at hand, and in turn<lb />
performance suffers. There is a<lb />
correlation between the meddling<lb />
P&amp;T and poor grades at ECU.<lb />
That is correct. I am holding Mike<lb />
Vanderven and his minions per-<lb />
sonally responsible for a myriad of<lb />
academic troubles here at ECU.<lb />
People may disgustedly tell<lb />
me to get a parking permit, but I<lb />
ask, have we not paid enough fees<lb />
and fines here at ECU already?<lb />
Free, campus-wide after-dark<lb />
parking should seriously be con-<lb />
sidered. Personal safety and con-<lb />
tinued academic success hang in<lb />
the balance. After all, good grades<lb />
are my ticket out of here. Assum-<lb />
ing, that is, that I don't have a<lb />
hold tag due to my actual ticket.<lb />
In My Opinion<lb />
(KRT)  In the 19th and early<lb />
20th centuries when, for politi-<lb />
cal or economic reasons, one left<lb />
one's homeland for somewhere<lb />
else, there was finality in the<lb />
journey. People landing on Ellis<lb />
Island, for example, had a one-<lb />
way ticket. Their future lay in the<lb />
land in front of them. The land<lb />
behind them was history - an<lb />
ever-fading memory.<lb />
Nowadays, immigrants have it<lb />
both ways. They move, mostly for<lb />
economic reasons, to new lands,<lb />
but remain strongly connected to<lb />
their homelands. Cheap airfares,<lb />
telephones and the Internet keep<lb />
them tethered to the moth-<lb />
erlands that bore them. They<lb />
are psychologically bifurcated<lb />
between the old and the new.<lb />
Modern transport and commu-<lb />
nications play a role in the duality of<lb />
today's immigrants, whether they<lb />
have moved from North Africa to<lb />
Europe or from El Salvador to the<lb />
United States. Today's immigrant<lb />
assimilates slowly, or not at all.<lb />
I can speak to this as an immi-<lb />
grant myself. Asl was born in Africa<lb />
and lived in England, there is that<lb />
part of me that is not totally Ameri-<lb />
can. After 40 years of living here and<lb />
endeavoring to absorb an American<lb />
viewpoint, I still find myself with<lb />
an outsider's perspective. And I<lb />
launched into Americanism vigor-<lb />
ously: I signed up at my draft board<lb />
before I was called, and I avoided<lb />
the company of other expatriates.<lb />
Yet, I follow British politics as<lb />
keenly as I follow American poli-<lb />
tics. And I spend hours reading the<lb />
news from Africa on the Internet. If<lb />
English were not my first language,<lb />
if I had come with a family, and if I<lb />
had been welcomed into an expa-<lb />
triate community would be that<lb />
much less American than I am.<lb />
Since the bizarre global protests<lb />
against the depiction of the Prophet<lb />
Muhammad in a Danish newspa-<lb />
per, people have been asking why<lb />
Muslims who have migrated to new<lb />
lands have not assimilated. Well,<lb />
they have moved physically but<lb />
not spiritually or psychologically.<lb />
Pakistanis in Britain fly back to<lb />
the Subcontinent regularly and<lb />
speak to their own communities<lb />
by telephone almost daily.<lb />
The British Pakistanis live in<lb />
the shadow of their mosques, that<lb />
forever will be for them a corner<lb />
of Pakistan in Britain. While they<lb />
enjoy the benefits of Britain's<lb />
welfare society, they treasure<lb />
their alien status: the continu-<lb />
ation of the life and values that<lb />
they failed to leave behind.<lb />
The same goes for Muslim<lb />
immigrants to Belgium, Denmark,<lb />
France, and even faraway New<lb />
Zealand. They live not in those<lb />
countries but in a virtual caliph-<lb />
ate, made possible by technology<lb />
and the tolerance of their hosts.<lb />
The larger the immigrant<lb />
community, the more self-suf-<lb />
ficient and the less pressure to<lb />
assimilate. It is as true in the<lb />
United States as it is in Europe.<lb />
Do you think that the Soma-<lb />
lis living in Maine will be New<lb />
Englanders in one or two gen-<lb />
erations? It has not happened to<lb />
Moroccans living in France, or<lb />
Turks living in Germany. The<lb />
famous American melting pot<lb />
may no longer be on the boil.<lb />
As if language and custom<lb />
are not barriers enough to a new<lb />
identity and way of life, the bind-<lb />
ing absolutism of Islam cauter-<lb />
izes its immigrants against new<lb />
values, loyalties and possibilities.<lb />
When I became an American<lb />
dtizen-andl wanted to be an Amer-<lb />
ican because America was someplace<lb />
special that I wanted to be part of -<lb />
my friends celebrated and presented<lb />
me with a flag that had flown over<lb />
the Capitol. I was glad of my accep-<lb />
tance as a full-blooded American<lb />
and just a little sad at what seemed<lb />
like a rejection of my British past.<lb />
This thing of being an immi-<lb />
grant is not that easy, even when<lb />
you are prepared to bid adieu to<lb />
the culture that formed you. There<lb />
are no more one-way tickets.<lb />
Pirate Rant<lb />
Valentine's Day is so overrated.<lb />
I didn't know most guys wanted another mother,<lb />
not a girlfriend. Hey buddy, when you get your nerve<lb />
back give me a call.<lb />
Is it mandatory for a guy to dump his girlfriend right<lb />
before Valentine's Day? Is it really that torturous of a<lb />
holiday? If losing the person most important to me<lb />
two years in a row is due to this holiday, I will just<lb />
cross it off my calendar in the future!<lb />

Some people just don't understand the concept of a<lb />
little goes along way, or less is more for that matter,<lb />
at least not in the decorating sense of it.<lb />
Satires of the Holocaust are extremely more disre-<lb />
spectful than Sabres of the prophet Mohammed. The<lb />
death of six million people is not equivalent to mis-<lb />
representing a holy figure. Iran is taking this too far!<lb />
Equality means that everyone should be treated the<lb />
same. Is giving minorities things that the majority<lb />
does not nave equality? That sounds like the complete<lb />
definition of inequality.<lb />
As a white person, I am excluded from many types of<lb />
financial aid that goes to people who are in far better<lb />
situations than me. Is this equality? Should not two<lb />
people competing for the same aid he judged on their<lb />
financial situation rather than their race?<lb />
Does anyone get the crap shocked out of them when<lb />
they touch stuff on campus?<lb />
Newsflash! Cologne does not cover up stank! Take<lb />

So I've got a little situation. There are these two girls<lb />
who are roommates and I'm crazy about botn of<lb />
them, but I don't know which one to pursue. They are<lb />
both unique but also very similar, what should I do?<lb />
My suitemate has rage attacks and blames them on<lb />
being pregnant. It's not my fault you got knocked up,<lb />
don't take it out on me when your hormones act up.<lb />
I hate finance!<lb />
Of North America's 50 largest corporations, 43 are<lb />
headed by fraternity men and sorority women. Seven<lb />
out of 10 people listed in the Who's Who are Greek.<lb />
Eighty-five percent of Fortune 500 executives belong<lb />
to a fraternity or sorority. Forty of 47 Supreme Court<lb />
Justices since 1910 were fraternity men. Seventy-six<lb />
percent of all Congressmen and Senators belong<lb />
to a fraternity or sorority. Every U.S. President and<lb />
Vice-President, except two in each office, born since<lb />
the first social fraternity was founded in 1825, and<lb />
three Canadian Prime Ministers,<lb />
have been members of a fraternity.<lb />
OK, Kayne West compares himself to Jesus because<lb />
he struggles like Jesus struggled? Has he read that<lb />
whole chapter about Jesus dying on the cross or being<lb />
whipped to near death? Oh unless, of course, he means<lb />
when Jesus said, "Caesar doesn't care about black<lb />
people which then made his album sales skyrocket<lb />
Why is it that on Sundays when we want to bowl in<lb />
Mendenhall, we have to wait for people who don't<lb />
even go to ECU to finish bowling? This past Sunday<lb />
there were a bunch of middle schoolers in there!<lb />
We hear students often complain, "We pay your<lb />
salary Newsflash, if you pay in-state tuition, taxes<lb />
or alumni pay 80 percent of your salary. Effectively,<lb />
you're on welfare. So justify our investment in you.<lb />
Why do some of these RAs take their jobs so seri-<lb />
ously? Who is going to tell on them when they give<lb />
me a warning instead of writing me up. You guys are<lb />
there to keep us safe, not try to kick us out. Instead<lb />
of coming up to my room because someone let my<lb />
guest in and writing me up, pay attention to the two<lb />
sketch guys standing outside of mv building at 2 a.m.<lb />
with a Gatorade cap Keeping the door open trying to<lb />
follow me to my room!<lb />
Why does Campus Living have to bribe us with prizes<lb />
to stay on campus? Maybe because it's cheaper to<lb />
live off campus, no restrictions, no RAs and maybe<lb />
because you feel like you are 18 instead of six!<lb />

Would you prefer to walk? That allegedly empty<lb />
Safe Ride van (not that you can actually tell since<lb />
the windows are tinted) is very necessary at 11 a.m.<lb />
and any other time of day to transport bus drivers<lb />
between the Transit garage and campus so they can<lb />
get to the hubs. So byv'another great way ECU spends<lb />
those tuition dollars" you mean spending a negligible<lb />
amount of tuition on transporting a few drivers to<lb />
a bus system that gets thousands of people to class<lb />
every day? What a novel idea! The buses certainly<lb />
won t dnve themselves.<lb />

grammatically correct you nimrod - as long as you<lb />
are writing in a medium such as news or sports jour-<lb />

English term papers, just not recommended. You<lb />
have a college education and haven't been taught<lb />
that yet? Sad.<lb />

View from both sides: Guys vs. Gals<lb />
A view of Valentine's Day rarely heard<lb />
t,i <lb />
AARON BORREGO<lb />
STAFF WRITER<lb />
It has recently come to my attention that this<lb />
week we will be celebrating Valentine's Day and all<lb />
of the splendor it has to offer. I am personally look-<lb />
ing forward to this year's incarnation of the love<lb />
fest because I will be looking forward to spending<lb />
that time with a certain pack of ladies. I'm just<lb />
joshing you guys, it is more like a herd O' ladies.<lb />
Do we need special days to remind us that we<lb />
can say or do something nice for one another when<lb />
we could just do things any or every day for no<lb />
reason. I don't know, it is just a suggestion and may<lb />
make things a little nicer around here. However, I<lb />
won't hold my breath long enough to see it catch<lb />
on, I will only hope.<lb />
There is something very nice and magical about<lb />
this time of the year, whether you have someone to<lb />
spend this day with or not. It makes you appreciate<lb />
everything that your significant other does for you.<lb />
It is one of the few days when you can tell someone<lb />
how much you care about them.<lb />
I will try to show what men think about this<lb />
day from three perspectives: the single guy, the<lb />
semi-married guy and the married guy. Hopefully,<lb />
this article will provide some insight into what men<lb />
truly think of this day. Well, here it goes, straight<lb />
from the horse's mouth.<lb />
The single guy I asked about Valentine's Day was<lb />
Austin Tew. When asked about what he thought of<lb />
the event he remarked, "It's nothing to me because<lb />
I don't have a girlfriend to spend it with<lb />
Tew went further on to implicate that it is a<lb />
"buy chocolate and go to the movies" type of day.<lb />

A day for love or franchise?<lb />
TOMEKA STEELE<lb />
SENIOR WRITER<lb />
How can we miss the coming of the infamous<lb />
"day for lovers" or Valentine's Day? We can't - it is<lb />
everywhere. It's in your e-mail in the form of a virus.<lb />
It's in Wal-Mart with red bears and roses smother-<lb />
ing you at the automatic doors. It's in the yard with<lb />
raffles and drawings for dinners for two and carna-<lb />
tions. It's enveloping Wright Place with red boxes<lb />
of candy and balloons. It's supposed to be a day of<lb />
love, but most people hate Valentine's Day.<lb />
I dislike Valentine's Day for many reasons. For<lb />
one, it's all about businesses making money. It's the<lb />
day for the selling of flowers, candy, cards, balloons<lb />
and jewelry. This is mostly because it's considered<lb />
a woman's holiday. At least, that's what every guy<lb />
I asked said. Most guys could care less whether or<lb />
not their girlfriend gets them anything.<lb />
"It's a made-up holiday just to make money,<lb />
and you don't need just one day to tell someone<lb />
you love them said Stephen Reed, senior exercise<lb />
physiology major.<lb />
I think everyone knows this holiday is more<lb />
about businesses making money than about love.<lb />
Love should be shown every day, not just one day<lb />
of the year. I'd rather get a card on a random day<lb />
for no reason at all than it strictly being reserved<lb />
for Valentine's Day, which would make the gesture<lb />
seem somewhat forced.<lb />
Valentine's Day also has the capacity to make<lb />
someone who is single feel like an outcast. People<lb />
are always asking what you got for Valentine's Day<lb />
like it's Christmas or something, like if you didn't<lb />
receive some bouquet of rare night-blooming jas-<lb />

Getting stupid with Cupid<lb />
Hitting the bulls-eye with<lb />
an interview<lb />
DANIEL BROCK<lb />
STAFF WRITER<lb />
It's Valentine's Day, and love<lb />
is in the air. Someone must be<lb />
held responsible for that debacle.<lb />
In a TEC exclusive, I imagined<lb />
tracking down the Longbows-<lb />
man of Love, Cupid himself, to<lb />
get the facts on breaking hearts,<lb />
making love and Bon Jovi.<lb />
I met Cupid at a bar on the<lb />
outskirts of Sandusky, Ohio. He<lb />
asked me to wager on a game of<lb />
darts. Fancying myself some-<lb />
thing of a marksman, I agreed. I<lb />
quickly found myself down $75.<lb />
We sat down for some hard liquor<lb />
and hard questions, and by the<lb />
time we were finished, we'd had<lb />
enough of both.<lb />
TEC: Could you put some more<lb />
clothes on before we start the<lb />
interview?<lb />
Cupid: Play it as it lies, baby.<lb />
TEC: Fair enough. How do you<lb />
keep your youthful appearance?<lb />
Cupid: It's actually a rare genetic<lb />
condition known as GCD, Gary<lb />
Coleman Disease.<lb />
TEC: Whatchu talkin' bout,<lb />
Willis?<lb />
Cupid: That's not funny.<lb />
TEC: You're right. Moving on,<lb />
what possessed you to start<lb />
shooting people with arrows,<lb />
thus causing them fall into this<lb />
accursed thing called "love"?<lb />
Cupid: Well, when I was seven<lb />
I got a Nerf bow and arrow. My<lb />
mother (Roman goddess of love,<lb />
Venus) said I'd shoot my eye out,<lb />
which I nearly did. We got sick of<lb />
saying "You're it" when someone<lb />
got shot. To spice it up a little, we<lb />
worked up some magic so that<lb />
when you got shot, you'd fall in<lb />
love with a girl and get cooties.<lb />
In college, we used it for other<lb />
purposes  if you catch my drift.<lb />
TEC: You injected yourself?<lb />
Cupid: Who do I look like, Jose<lb />
Canseco?<lb />
TEC: Not even close.<lb />
Cupid: I might have poked<lb />
myself a time or two.<lb />
TEC: You had a highly publi-<lb />
cized romance with the Roman<lb />
socialite Psyche. Can you tell me<lb />
about that?<lb />
Cupid: Psyche? More like Psycho.<lb />
She was insane. She literally<lb />
loved me to death. I actually<lb />
had to bring that chick back to<lb />
life. A decision I, and my bank<lb />
account, regret on a daily basis.<lb />
TEC: Indeed. It was an odd pre-<lb />
nup. She wasn't allowed to look<lb />
at you, but apparently she was<lb />
entitled to half of your net worth?<lb />
Cupid: Seemed like a good idea<lb />
at the time.<lb />
TEC: Love hurts.<lb />
Cupid: So does alimony.<lb />
TEC: Name the top three archers<lb />
of all-time.<lb />
Cupid: Cupid, Cupid and let me<lb />
see Cupid.<lb />
TEC: Robin Hood and Legolas<lb />
don't make the list?<lb />
Cupid: Are you familiar with<lb />
the phrase, "You couldn't hit the<lb />
broad side of a barn?" Yeah, well<lb />
that was about Robin Hood. As<lb />
for Legolas, he's a fairy.<lb />
TEC: Actually, he's an elf.<lb />
Cupid: Whatever.<lb />
TEC: Finish this quote, "Shot<lb />
through the heart and you're to<lb />
blame<lb />
Cupid: Says who?<lb />
TEC: Uh, Bon Jovi.<lb />
Cupid: Figures.<lb />
TEC: People have said many<lb />
things about love: love stinks,<lb />
love bites, love can keep us<lb />
together. What does Cupid say<lb />
about love?<lb />
Cupid: If loving you is wrong,<lb />
how much will it cost me to be<lb />
right?<lb />
TEC: Any final thoughts?<lb />
Cupid: Love is a battlefield, and<lb />
I'm packin' heat.<lb />

Valentine's Day is a day for<lb />
lovers everywhere. Guys usu-<lb />
ally have a dinner date planned,<lb />
whether it is out in a restaurant<lb />
or something quiet and special<lb />
at home. Girls are anxious to<lb />
see what their significant other<lb />
has planned and may even have<lb />
plans of their own. Clothes,<lb />
flowers, candy, cards, candles<lb />
and jewelry are all basic gifts to<lb />
give and receive on Valentine's<lb />
Day. This tradition has been long<lb />
lasting, and while there are many<lb />
out there who love and anticipate<lb />
this day of love, some still ques-<lb />

"1 don't understand why so<lb />
many people get into Valentine's<lb />
Day. Even if you do have some-<lb />
one, why is there one specific day<lb />

you should express that all of<lb />
the time, so I don't really plan<lb />

While it's not for everyone<lb />
(even those who have a lover),<lb />
this day you will find most flo-<lb />

Attention ECU Sophomores<lb />
If you have earned 45-60 hours and at least 30 of them were<lb />
completed at ECU (not counting Math 0001 or 0045),<lb />
you are required to respond to the<lb />
Sophomore Survey<lb />
before you can pre-register for either<lb />
Summer or Fall 2006 courses.<lb />
If your earned credit hours fall within these limits you will receive a<lb />
message at your ECU Exchange email address asking you to participate<lb />
in the survey, and your record will be "tagged" so that you cannot register<lb />
until you have responded to it. If you do not receive the email notice, it<lb />
means that the survey and registration restriction does not apply to you.<lb />
When you are taking the survey, as soon as you submit your responses<lb />
the "tag" will be removed from your record so that you can pre-register.<lb />
Registration staff can verify that your responses were received and that the<lb />
tag was removed.<lb />
Note: Although we really want your feedback to the survey questions,<lb />
you may choose to opt out by submitting a blank form. Opting out will<lb />
also remove the sophomore survey tag that would prevent you from<lb />
pre-registering.<lb />
The survey period is March 2 - April 24. During that period you can<lb />
complete the survey by going to the ECU "One-Stop" web site, entering<lb />
your ECU Exchange email userid and password to sign on, and clicking on<lb />
"Sophomore Survey" in the box labeled "Surveys You can also access the<lb />
"One-Stop" from:<lb />
Mendenhall Computer Lab, Wright Place Cafeteria, the Austin Building,<lb />
and Joyner Library East.<lb />
For this survey you are emailed an announcement on March 2. Later you<lb />
are sent an email reminder, and then a postcard, if you have not responded<lb />
to the survey.<lb />
Please respond to the survey as soon as possible after the survey opens on<lb />
March 2 and certainly before sophomore pre-registration begins on March<lb />
23. This will also help you avoid delays during pre-registration when the<lb />
workload on ECU computers is at a peak. All remaining tags for this<lb />
survey will be removed from student records on April 25, the day after<lb />
the survey closes.<lb />

It seems that many people share the sentiment of<lb />
a commercialized holiday created by the Hallmark<lb />
Card people working together with the Easter Bunny.<lb />
Then I asked John Keefe, a guy in a serious relation-<lb />
ship, what his thoughts were about the special day.<lb />
"It is about celebrating the relationship and trying<lb />
to expand into new areas all the time said Keefe.<lb />
That is one great way to look at the day, as an<lb />
event to get one another closer in the effort to grow<lb />
together or at least trying something new.<lb />
Now, why don't we hear what the married guy has<lb />
to say about the day? I asked my father about what<lb />
Valentine's Day meant to him. He stated, "Over the<lb />
years it has meant to me how much love I have for<lb />
your mother and also how much love she has for me<lb />
This profound statement is no more evident in<lb />
the recent celebration of my parents' silver anniver-<lb />
sary - something I will hope to strive toward and be<lb />
a part of one day. One day ladies, one day.<lb />
For now, I will take the lesson of their enduring<lb />
love and selfless sacrifices for each other as a big<lb />
lesson on what growing up and finding someone<lb />
special to share time with is all about. In my case,<lb />
it might be finding someone who is great enough<lb />
of a person to put up with my shenanigans. I bid<lb />
everyone a sincere Happy Valentine's Day and hope<lb />
it all works out for you and your endeavors. Guys,<lb />
try doing something unique.<lb />

holiday, you are still accustomed to receiving and<lb />
giving a gift. Let's not kid ourselves, we all love gifts,<lb />
but we shouldn't base whether we had a good day<lb />
or not on the fact that we got a gift. We should be<lb />
happy to have at least one person who loves us <lb />
not just on Valentine's Day but every day - whether<lb />
it's a parent, boyfriend, girlfriend or friend.<lb />
Being single on Valentine's Day can be extremely<lb />
depressing if you choose to sit and wallow in the<lb />
fact that no one has realized your wonderful per-<lb />
sonality and attributes yet. I've spent a Valentine's<lb />
Day or two wondering what it was that I was miss-<lb />
ing or lacking, then I got over it. Valentine's Day<lb />
isn't just for lovers it's for friends and family too.<lb />
I had to figure that out for myself.<lb />
My mom and dad each send me a bouquet of<lb />
flowers. Dad sends roses and mom sends wild flow-<lb />
ers. My friends, who are also single, call me and we<lb />
talk for hours or have some kind of girl's night in.<lb />
So even though Valentine's Day is about making<lb />
money, it's a gentle reminder that no one is prom-<lb />
ised tomorrow and rather than just showing our<lb />
love one day a year, we should show it every day.<lb />

Gifts<lb />
from page A5<lb />
cates, jewelry, iPod accessories, video games, bath<lb />
stuff, magazine subscriptions and DVDs. While it's<lb />
great that many can afford these gifts, remember<lb />
it's not the price that counts. What does a gift like<lb />
this say? Will your boyfriendgirlfriend love you<lb />
more if you buy them pricey things? Does the gift<lb />
truly represent how you feel? Store-bought gifts<lb />
are nice, but keep in mind that you don't have to<lb />
spend tons of money to let someone know how you<lb />
feel. Around days like this, stores raise prices and<lb />
customers become greedy when they are shopping;<lb />
they want the last box of chocolates or the only<lb />
pink teddy bear left in town. If you don't want to<lb />
be caught in that crowd, hopefully you've finished<lb />
your shopping and already have plans.<lb />
"I like things that come from the heart. You<lb />
can't buy true love, so thoughtful gifts mean<lb />
the most to me. Homemade cards are the best<lb />
and the gifts that have been thought out and are<lb />
personalized really make me feel like someone<lb />
cares said Lallie Jones, sophomore art major.<lb />
Roses and chocolates are favorites, but nothing<lb />
can replace a sweet card. Bring out the markers, scis-<lb />
sors and glue and express your feelings through art<lb />
or simply print a cute card from the Internet, both<lb />
are free and easy ways to begin the gift. There are<lb />
tons of ideas online and in magazines that can help<lb />
create that perfect gift. Valentine's Day seems to be<lb />
keeping up with the pace of technology, so creating<lb />
CDs has been extremely popular over the past few<lb />
years. If heshe likes poetry, gathering some love<lb />
poems and creating a small book would be ideal.<lb />
Valentine's Day has a long history, but seems to<lb />
have evolved over time and has become a day that<lb />
makes people stress and not really focus on the main<lb />
idea. Express your true feelings this year the right way.<lb />
It's not the gift's cost, but the thought that matters.<lb />
One of the most popular gifts on Valentine's<lb />
Day is a dozen roses. Their beauty and fragrance<lb />
make them a traditional gift, and the red ones are a<lb />
symbol of love. Whether you get a dozen or a single<lb />
rose, they convey the depth of your feelings.<lb />
Nothing melts one's heart like chocolate.<lb />
Truffles, milk, dark or nutty, none of them last long,<lb />
but the memory will last a lifetime. Valentine's Day<lb />
gifts reflect your thoughtfulness and express your<lb />
feelings, so be sure to demonstrate them in the right<lb />
way on this very special day.<lb />

Strength and Conditioning<lb />
take championship<lb />
ECU'S Strength and Conditioning<lb />
staff, under the direction of second-<lb />
year coach Mike Golden, practiced<lb />
what they preach on a daily basis<lb />
by capturing the mixed men's team<lb />
division title at the 100 percent Raw<lb />
World Powerlifting Championships<lb />
at the Beyond Fitness Gym over the<lb />
weekend. The squad, which competes<lb />
under the team name "ECU Pirate<lb />
Factory accumulated the highest<lb />
number of total points based on<lb />
individual performances throughout<lb />
the competition, which included three<lb />
basis lifts - the squat, bench press<lb />
and dead lift. Individual champions,<lb />
competing in different weight and<lb />
age divisions, were determined by<lb />
the highest combined sum of each<lb />
of the three lifts. Each competitor<lb />
was allowed three attempts at each<lb />
event with the heaviest successful lift<lb />
counting toward each athlete's total.<lb />
Golden was one of six ECU Pirate<lb />
Factory first-place winners, joining<lb />
Danny Wheel (Director of Olympic<lb />
Sports), Nate Barnes (strength and<lb />
conditioning graduate assistant),<lb />
Jason Spruill (intern), Mike Yartin<lb />
(intern) and Kevin "Twitch" Ferelli<lb />
(equipment room) in the champion's<lb />
circle. In addition, weight room<lb />
volunteers John Fisher and Bill<lb />
Simmons earned second-place<lb />
finishes. Golden also cited assistant<lb />
coach Michelle Clayton-Boswell, who<lb />
is currently ranked third nationally<lb />
in the Olympic Lifting category,<lb />
for her contributions assisting<lb />
ECU Pirate Factory's preparation<lb />
and development efforts. The 100<lb />
percent Raw Powerlifting Federation<lb />
is drug-free and prohibits the use of<lb />
supportive lifting suits, knee or wrist<lb />
wraps in its competitions.<lb />
Harrell And Quick earn Weekly<lb />
C-USA accolades<lb />
For their efforts in leading ECU<lb />
to a perfect 5-0 weekend record<lb />
and the FAU Worth Invitational title,<lb />
senior Ashley Quick and junior Keli<lb />
Harrell were named Conference<lb />
USA Hitter and Co-Pitcher of the<lb />
Week, respectively. Harrell shares<lb />
her honor with Houston sophomore<lb />
Angel Shamblin, who one-hit No. 22<lb />
Oregon in her first start of the season.<lb />
Quick, who delivered two game-<lb />
winning hits, and Harrell, who was<lb />
3-0 in the circle with 21 strikeouts,<lb />
were instrumental in leading the<lb />
Pirates to the championship. Quick<lb />
batted .455 (5-for-11) with five RBIs<lb />
helping lead the Pirates to the FAU<lb />
Worth Invitational championship. The<lb />
senior delivered two game-winning<lb />
hits during the Pirates' 5-0 start to the<lb />
season. Quick had the lone RBI in a 1 -<lb />
0 victory over FAU and also delivered<lb />
a two-run, seventh-inning double in a<lb />
3-1 victory over Purdue. Harrell went<lb />
3-0 with complete game victories<lb />
over Bethune-Cookman, Purdue<lb />
and South Carolina on the weekend<lb />
en route to earning MVP honors at<lb />
the FAU Worth Invitational. The junior<lb />
fanned 21 batters in 21 innings<lb />
pitched, surpassing the 500 career<lb />
strikeout mark. She is only the ninth<lb />
player in C-USA history to achieve<lb />
that feat. Harrell shares the Pitcher<lb />
of the Week honor with Shamblin,<lb />
who limited No. 22 Oregon to just<lb />
one hit as she opened her season<lb />
with a complete-game shutout at .<lb />
the WilsonDeMarini Invitational, The<lb />
sophomore fanned eight Ducks in<lb />
her seven innings of work and carried<lb />
a perfect game into the fifth inning<lb />
before allowing a walk.<lb />
Shortt agrees to plead guilty In<lb />
steroids case<lb />
A doctor accused of writing<lb />
illegal steroid prescriptions to football<lb />
players has agreed to plead guilty to<lb />
one federal conspiracy charge as<lb />
part of a plea agreement, according<lb />
to court documents. Alternative<lb />
medicine physician James Shortt,<lb />
59, will plead guilty to one count of<lb />
conspiracy to distribute anabolic<lb />
steroids and human growth hormone.<lb />
In exchange, prosecutors will drop<lb />
42 similar counts against the West<lb />
Columbia doctor, according to<lb />
papers filed Monday in U.S. District<lb />
Court in South Carolina. Shortt faces<lb />
up to five years in prison and a<lb />
$250,000 fine. A spokeswoman for<lb />
U.S. Attorney Johnny Gasser said<lb />
in these types of cases, sentencing<lb />
usually occurs two or three months<lb />
after the plea agreement has been<lb />
reached. Shortt has been free on<lb />
bond since he was indicted last<lb />
September. The indictment didn't<lb />
specify who received the drugs Shortt<lb />
prescribed but a person familiar<lb />
with the indictment said they were<lb />
current and former members of the<lb />
Carolina Panthers, bodybuilders and<lb />
at least one police officer. The source<lb />
spoke to The Associated Press on<lb />
the condition of anonymity because<lb />
the investigation was ongoing and<lb />
did not name players. Last week,<lb />
U.S. District Court Chief Judge Joe<lb />
Anderson said he would allow some<lb />
parts of Shortt's interview on HBO's<lb />
"CostasNow" program to be shown<lb />
to jurors. In the interview, Shortt said<lb />
he treated about 18 NFL players with<lb />
anabolic steroids or human growth<lb />
hormones.<lb />
Pirates squeeze series from Terrapins<lb />
Billy Godwin starts ECU<lb />
career with two wins<lb />
BRENT WYNNE<lb />
SENIOR WRITER<lb />
It all happened so fast. After<lb />
Adam Hodges hit a sacrifice fly to<lb />
knot the rubber match between<lb />
Maryland and ECU at four in the<lb />
bottom of the ninth, ECU Head<lb />
Coach Billy Godwin proved he<lb />
belonged at the Division One<lb />
level.<lb />
On the very next pitch, he<lb />
gave sophomore shortstop Dale<lb />
Mollenhauer the sign for the<lb />
squeeze play and it was executed<lb />
to perfection, as the lefty laid<lb />
down a perfect bunt to bring<lb />
home Stephen Batts for the<lb />
game and series winner Sunday<lb />
afternoon at Clark-LeClair<lb />
stadium.<lb />
"I just thought the momen-<lb />
tum right there was on our side<lb />
said Godwin.<lb />
"To react quickly on the first<lb />
pitch is a thing I've done in the<lb />
past. I just thought it was the<lb />
right call<lb />
Maryland Head Coach Terry<lb />
Rupp sure didn't think it was<lb />
the right call. However, the call<lb />
he disagreed with was the one<lb />
made by home plate umpire Larry<lb />
Howard. It looked as if Terrapin<lb />
catcher Chad Durakis had the<lb />
plate fully blocked, but Batts<lb />
apparently found an open spot<lb />
and slid in safe.<lb />
The Diamond Bucs opened<lb />
the series with a 6-1 win and it<lb />

Pirates off to worst-ever<lb />
start in Conference USA<lb />
ERIC QILMORE<lb />
SENIOR WRITER<lb />
The Pirates are still trying<lb />
to find the right pieces to be<lb />
consistent in Conference USA.<lb />
The puzzle wasn't solved, as evi-<lb />
denced by ECU'S 72-64 bow to<lb />
a talented UAB team in front of<lb />
6,365 fans at Bartow Arena.<lb />
UAB guard Marvett McDon-<lb />
ald scored 15 of his 18 points in<lb />
the second half to notch the Blaz-<lb />
ers 13th win in 15 games. Starting<lb />
small forward Wen Mukubu and<lb />
sophomore guard Paul Delaney<lb />
scored 12 points apiece for UAB<lb />
(17-5, 7-2 C-USA). Freshman for-<lb />
ward Lawrence Kinnard added<lb />
10 points.<lb />
Corey Rouse dominated the<lb />
interior by notching 18 points<lb />
and adding 13 rebounds. The<lb />
senior tallied his 13th double-<lb />
double of the season on 8-for-ll<lb />
shooting. Freshman guard Sam<lb />
Hinnant connected on four treys<lb />
and a field goal for 14 points,<lb />
while Jeremy Ingram totaled 13.<lb />
ECU (7-15, 1-8 C-USA) led by<lb />
as many as six in the early going<lb />
as both teams struggled to find<lb />
the basket. However, UAB clawed<lb />
to a 28-25 halftime lead despite a<lb />
dismal 29.6 percent shooting.<lb />
"We didn't make any shots<lb />
said UAB Head Coach Mike<lb />
Anderson in a press release<lb />
according to UAB's Web site.<lb />
"I didn't think we were attack-<lb />
ing. We were tentative. We had<lb />
some guys come off the bench<lb />
and do some good things for us.<lb />
We had a lot of guys doing a lot<lb />
of things, and they gave us some<lb />
quality minutes and allowed us to<lb />
get the lead before halftime<lb />
UAB built a 10-point lead due<lb />
to seven consecutive points out<lb />
of the gates in the second frame.<lb />
The Blazers built up a 14-point<lb />
margin with 13:58 remaining,<lb />
but ECU, losers of eight of their<lb />
last nine games, showed flashes<lb />
of resiliency.<lb />
The Pirates pulled within<lb />
four points on four different<lb />
occasions, but couldn't manage<lb />
to inch closer. A Rouse dunk<lb />
brought ECU to within 52-48,<lb />
but McDonald's jumper and free<lb />
throws from UAB senior forward<lb />
Brandon Tobias sealed the Pirates'<lb />
fate.<lb />
ECU'S turnover bug-a-boo con-<lb />
tinued as the Pirates committed 26<lb />
unforced errors leading directly<lb />
to 32 Blazer points. Point guard<lb />
Courtney Captain and sophomore<lb />
Tom Hammonds were guilty of<lb />
five apiece, while two others com-<lb />
mitted four each.<lb />
Rouse and the Pirates domi-<lb />
nated the glass, out-rebounding<lb />
the guard-oriented Blazers by a<lb />
41-28 margin. However, the Pirates<lb />
early shooting woes and UAB con-<lb />
necting on 53.8 percent (14-for-26)<lb />
in the second half spelled doom.<lb />
ECU played without Japhet<lb />
McNeil and Jonathan Hart, who<lb />
remain suspended due to a vio-<lb />
lation of team policy. The sus-<lb />
pended players corribined for 20<lb />
starts and deprived Pirate Head<lb />
Coach Ricky Stokes of 27.4 and<lb />
16.7 minutes per game respec-<lb />
tively. Eight players combined<lb />
for double-digit minutes while<lb />
all eligible players entered the<lb />
game.<lb />
The Pirate loss continued<lb />
ECU'S sole possession of last place<lb />
in C-USA, while UAB remained<lb />
in third. The Pirates are one<lb />
game behind both Marshall and<lb />
Southern Mississippi.<lb />
ECU, which is off to its worst<lb />
start ever in five years of C-USA<lb />
play, will travel to Houston to<lb />
take on Rice. The midweek game<lb />
will be nationally televised on<lb />
CSTV Wednesday. Tip-off is<lb />
scheduled for 8:05 p.m.<lb />

Lady Pirates end week<lb />
in dramatic fashion<lb />
ECU falls to UAB in triple-OT thriller<lb />
JOSH FERNANDEZ<lb />
STAFF WRITER<lb />
The Lady Pirates lost a heartbreaker to UAB in triple-overtime.<lb />
The past week was just one of several bumps in<lb />
the road that is the 2005-06 season for the Lady<lb />
Pirates basketball team. Now sitting at middle<lb />
ground in the Conference USA standings with<lb />
only a handful of games left in the season and the<lb />
C-USA tournament fast approaching, it's in the<lb />
hands of the Lady Pirate players to shape how this<lb />
season ends.<lb />
In the three games played during the week of<lb />
Feb. 6 - 12, ECU (14-9, 6-6) picked up one substan-<lb />
tial 20-point victory over Memphis, but dropped a<lb />
couple later in the week.<lb />
ECU began the week with a trip to Houston to<lb />
take on Rice (11-12, 7-5). From the start, Rice out-<lb />
paced the Pirates and got out to an early 17-point<lb />
lead, 25-8.<lb />
After shooting 45 percent (13-of-29) during the<lb />
half to ECU'S 17 percent (6-of-36), the Owls entered<lb />
halftime leading comfortably, 48-23. They would<lb />
hold at least a 20-point lead until the final nine<lb />
minutes when Jessica Slack hit a three to put the<lb />
Pirates behind by 19.<lb />
The play jump-started a 14-2 Pirate-run, which<lb />
cut Rice's lead to seven. However, with only a<lb />
minute left on the game-clock, the only thing ECU<lb />
could do was foul and hope for missed attempts on<lb />
the part of Owl shooters.<lb />
Rice guard Latrice Elder, the primary target of<lb />
the late game fouls, came up big for the Owls by<lb />
connecting on 9-of-10 tries from the line, sealing<lb />
the 73-65 win for the home team. Rice's win can<lb />
largely be attributed to their bold performance at<lb />
the free-throw line, hitting 36-of-41 attempts, a<lb />
school record.<lb />
ECU's potent force of freshmen guards Jasmine<lb />
Young and LaCoya Terry each recorded a team-best<lb />
15 points with Slack adding 10. Terry also grabbed<lb />
a career-high seven boards.<lb />
Friday night, the Lady Pirates looked for<lb />
redemption at Williams Arena in Minges Coliseum<lb />
as they took on bottom-of-the-barrel Memphis<lb />
(3-19, 1-10).<lb />
Less than four minutes into the game, ECU had<lb />

America's gold standard: no price too high<lb />
(AP)  Americans are great at<lb />
sports the rest of the world can<lb />
barely afford.<lb />
Sure, it's not the most hon-<lb />
orable, most satisfying or even<lb />
the most cost-effective way to<lb />
become a Winter Olympics super-<lb />
power, but guess what?<lb />
It works.<lb />
And with an American TV<lb />
network still picking up the lion's<lb />
share of the Olympic tab and<lb />
exerting just as much influence<lb />
on the roster of sports included<lb />
in the games, that isn't going to<lb />
change anytime soon.<lb />
Through the close of play<lb />
Monday, two of the four golds<lb />
and four of the six medals<lb />
claimed by Americans at these<lb />
Olympics have been won by<lb />
snowboarders.<lb />
"This Gretchen Bleiler said<lb />
moments after nailing down the<lb />
silver half of another 1-2 U.S.<lb />
medals punch in the halfpipe, "is<lb />
absolutely unbelievable<lb />
That just might hold up over<lb />
the next two weeks as the over-<lb />
statement of these Olympics.<lb />
The only thing unbelievable<lb />
about what happened in halfpipe<lb />
Monday is that Norwegian Kjersti<lb />
Buass managed to wedge herself<lb />
between all the other Americans<lb />
- Hannah Teter (gold), Kelly<lb />
Clark (fourth) and Elena Hight<lb />
(sixth) - to steal the bronze.<lb />
Honestly now, who else did<lb />
Bleiler think was going to win?<lb />
Paulina Ligocka of Poland, a<lb />
country with one halfpipe venue,<lb />
and a square one at that?<lb />
Svetlana Vinogradova of<lb />
Russia, a country with two more<lb />
halfpipes than Lenin's Tomb?<lb />
Please.<lb />
"Medaling at the Olympics<lb />
Bleiler added, "has been a dream<lb />
of mine since I was a little girl<lb />
Good thing that Bleiler wasn't<lb />
born until 1981, Since snow-<lb />
boarding didn't became part of<lb />
the Winter Olympics until eight<lb />
years ago at Nagano. Before<lb />
becoming a shredder, Bleiler tried<lb />
swimming, diving, soccer and<lb />
then women's hockey, another<lb />
one of those sports that has<lb />
been the equivalent of an ATM<lb />
machine for a U.S. team looking<lb />
to cash in medals.<lb />
For all the fuss made over<lb />
the best-ever U.S. effort at Salt<lb />
Lake City four years ago, it's<lb />
worth noting that nearly half of<lb />
the haul - 16 of 34 medals - was<lb />
in sports that cost a lot to play<lb />

(KRT)  Hannah Teter has spent her life trying<lb />
to keep up with her three snowboarding brothers.<lb />
On Monday, she quit following.<lb />
Teter, 19, won the gold medal in the halfpipe,<lb />
while her U.S. teammate, Gretchen Bleiler took the<lb />
silver. Only Norway's Kjersti Buaas prevented an<lb />
American sweep, stealing the bronze from defend-<lb />
ing Olympic champion Kelly Clark.<lb />
"(Hannah) was always the rag-tag little torn<lb />
girl, kind of following around and trying to keep<lb />
up with her older brothers and do her thing<lb />
said Amen Teter, who manages the professional<lb />
snowboarding careers of Hannah and brothers<lb />
Elijah and Abe.<lb />
"Hannah's always been about keeping up<lb />
with the boys. It shows. She's always like, T can<lb />
do that<lb />
Snowboarding has been the best news for the<lb />
U.S. Olympic team thus far. The U.S. won four of<lb />
the six medals awarded in the all-American sport.<lb />
Shaun White and Danny Kass won the gold and<lb />
the silver respectively Sunday, with Mason Aguirre<lb />
finishing fourth.<lb />
"We set some high goals U.S. coach Bud<lb />
Keene said.<lb />
"We wanted to sweep everything. Our actual<lb />
stated goals were two medals for men and two<lb />
medals for women, which is exactly what we got.<lb />
We're stoked about that<lb />
Riders get two trips down the chute in the<lb />
halfpipe final, with only their best score counting.<lb />
On Clark's final run, knowing she was in fourth<lb />
place, she went for broke with a go-big run. Clark<lb />
had the gold medal until losing her balance on the<lb />
landing of a 2 V4-spin jump at the end.<lb />
"She would have won with that run Keene<lb />
said.<lb />
Clark, who scored a 47.9 out of 50 to win the<lb />
gold in Salt Lake City in 2002, had a 41.1 on her<lb />
first run Monday. Buaas scored a 42 on her second<lb />
attempt for the bronze.<lb />
But Clark was the first to congratulate Teter<lb />
and Bleiler and stayed around to watch the flower<lb />
ceremony afterward.<lb />
"I really went for it said Clark, who was born<lb />
in Newport, R.I and now resides in Mammoth<lb />
Lakes, Calif. "I figured I might as well leave here<lb />
not regretting anything, and that's how I'm leav-<lb />
ing today. There was amazing riding thrown down<lb />
today. The people who are on the podium are the<lb />
people who should be on the podium  I'm so<lb />
happy for my friends<lb />
It was Teter's day from the start.<lb />
The Belmont, Vt native had the gold medal<lb />
won on her first run in the finals, with a frontside<lb />
900 scoring her a 44.6. But her victory lap was<lb />
even better.<lb />
Teter turned "Strive Roots" on her iPod and<lb />
put on a show.<lb />
Jumping into a crystal-clear blue sky, Teter hit<lb />
a frontside 540 followed by a frontside 900 to wow<lb />
an estimated crowd of 7,000 and the fudges. She<lb />
scored a 46.4.<lb />
"I was standing up there, and Gretchen went<lb />
and just threw down so hard, and I thought she<lb />
had me Teter said of Bleiler, who had her final<lb />

BdSBDdll from page A7<lb />
header with a 1-0 shutout, and after running out to<lb />
a 4-0 lead in game three, things were not looking<lb />
good for Purple Nation.<lb />
"We lost that first game 1-0 and won the second<lb />
game after being down 4-0 Godwin said.<lb />
"We could have packed it in and folded up at<lb />
that point, but they didn't. I was real proud of the<lb />
club from the standpoint of the character of our<lb />
players<lb />
Maryland pitchers held the Pirates scoreless for<lb />
IS innings straight dating back to game one, but<lb />
finally in the sixth inning of game three down<lb />
four runs, the bucs found their stride at the plate<lb />
again.<lb />
Freshman Drew Schieber singled to begin the<lb />
inning. After Mollenhauer struck out, Jay Mattox<lb />
stepped to the plate and delivered a two-run job,<lb />
cutting the Terrapin lead down to two. Jake Smith<lb />
later scored in the inning on a Jake Dean sac fly.<lb />
Shane Matthews, in his first start since the<lb />
first series of 2005, was shaky at times, going<lb />
4.2 innings, giving up four runs off of four hits<lb />
and two walks. Scott Andrews and Kevin Rhodes<lb />
combined to hold Maryland scoreless for the rest<lb />
of the game, allowing the Pirates to steal the game<lb />
in the ninth.<lb />
Rhodes was the beneficiary of the ninth inning<lb />
rally as he picked up his first win of 2006.<lb />
In game two, redshirt sophomore Dustin Sasser<lb />
was the hard luck loser as he dazzled the Terrapins<lb />
for seven innings only to watch Brett Tidball and<lb />
Brett Cecil one-up him as the Pirates fell 1-0.<lb />
Sasser, making his first start since undergo-<lb />
ing Tommy John Surgery at the end of the 2004<lb />
season, was very impressive, going 7.0 innings. The<lb />
southpaw surrendered only five hits while striking<lb />
out the same number.<lb />
"Dustin was great today Godwin said.<lb />
"I was certainly encouraged by that<lb />
The one run Maryland mustered was unearned<lb />
in the fifth inning, after freshman second baseman<lb />
Chris Buss committed an error that later lead to the<lb />
only run of the contest.<lb />
The story of game one was the pitching per-<lb />
formance of sophomore T.J. Hose. Hose struck<lb />
out eight and walked only one batter, leading the<lb />
Pirates to a 6-1 win to open the 2006 campaign.<lb />
The Maryland native had the Terrapins wishing<lb />
he were wearing red and black, as he pitched six<lb />
strong innings before giving way to freshman<lb />
Josh Dowdy.<lb />
Maryland looked as if they would get to super<lb />
sophomore in a big way as they began the fifth with<lb />
runners on second and third with no one out after<lb />
a throwing error by catcher Jake Smith.<lb />
Hose, however, showed the poise of a major<lb />
leaguer as he responded by striking out the next<lb />
three Terp hitters to end the fifth.<lb />
Infielder Stephen Batts was converted to out-<lb />
fielder just hours before game one, and he immedi-<lb />
ately made his presence felt, as he took a homerun<lb />
away from leadoff batter Steve Braun to open the<lb />
game. Batts then led the team at the plate on the<lb />
day, collecting three hits.<lb />
Adam Witter and Smith both homered for the<lb />
Pirates (2-1).<lb />

from page A7<lb />
(think freestyle skiing) and weren't even part of<lb />
the Olympic program as recently as 1988.<lb />
Sixteen nations were represented on the start<lb />
list for halfpipe, which says more about the tenacity<lb />
of an American entrepreneur named Jake Burton<lb />
than it does about the quality of the competition<lb />
worldwide. As a teenager in Vermont in the late<lb />
1960s, he figured there had to be a more entertain-<lb />
ing way to get down a mountain than strapping<lb />
on skis.<lb />
Burton didn't invent the snowboard. A rough<lb />
version, essentially two skis strapped together, was<lb />
around almost 100 years ago. When Burton started<lb />
shredding, it was on something called a "Snurfer a<lb />
board with a rope attached to the front that surfers<lb />
adopted to pass the time between days when it was<lb />
too cold to ride waves.<lb />
Convinced he was on the verge of the next big<lb />
thing, Burton moved into the barn on a farm in<lb />
Vermont, hired some friends, looked after the live-<lb />
stock to pay the rent and started manufacturing 50<lb />
snowboards a day. He sold 300 the first year.<lb />
"Some genius I was Burton laughed Monday,<lb />
about two hours before the U.S. women and plenty<lb />
of the other competitors zoomed down the halfpipe<lb />
on boards with his name writ large on the tips.<lb />
Back then, few ski resorts in the U.S. allowed<lb />
snowboarders on their slopes. First, they raised<lb />
liability questions and then what Burton called<lb />
"behavorial issues Lift operators weren't crazy<lb />
about long hair and baggy clothes, and they liked<lb />
the attitude least of all. But grudgingly, once the<lb />
people in charge figured out kids who accompa-<lb />
nied their parents would spend more money on<lb />
the slopes than on the video games in the arcade,<lb />
they started to come around.<lb />
Burton's sales more than doubled every year<lb />
for 15 straight years after that first one. His forays<lb />
into Europe went nearly as well, and Japan and<lb />
China are the latest frontier. As the number of<lb />
skiers continues to drop steadily, the number of<lb />
snowboarders has zoomed to the point where they<lb />
make up one-third of all the visitors to a ski resort<lb />
today. Almost overnight, as Burton likes to say,<lb />
shredders went from being a threat to the saviors<lb />
of the industry.<lb />
But worldwide popularity isn't the same thing<lb />
as worldwide competitiveness.<lb />
As the gold and silver medalists enlightened<lb />
and entertained a roomful of reporters with their<lb />
take on American dominance, "USA! Represent-<lb />
ing Bleiler called out at one point, or their taste<lb />
in music, "Communicate" was the song Teter played<lb />
on her iPod while shredding toward gold, "by a<lb />
band you probably never heard of, called Strive<lb />
Roots one of their coaches counted up the number<lb />
of first-rate halfpipe venues back in America. He<lb />
stopped at 20.<lb />
The only halfpipe back in Poland, on the other<lb />
hand, was constructed by a former engineer who<lb />
quit his job to become that nation's coach and<lb />
build it. His name is Wladyslaw Ligocki, and his<lb />

WOmen from page A7 SnOWbOardJIig from page A8<lb />
already pulled ahead to an 8-0<lb />
lead, but within a few more min-<lb />
utes, gained even more ground<lb />
and sat 16-points ahead, 22-6.<lb />
Memphis, however, wasn't<lb />
going to go home quietly; a for-<lb />
midable 23-15 run closed the gap<lb />
to eight as the score stood at 37-29<lb />
at halftime.<lb />
The second half began with<lb />
momentum still on the side of<lb />
the Tigers as they cut the lead<lb />
even thinner, reaching to within<lb />
five points of the Lady Pirates.<lb />
However, ECU tore off a 15-4<lb />
run lead by freshman forward<lb />
Jessica Honesty and Cherie Mills,<lb />
the night's leading scorer with<lb />
21 points accompanied by eight<lb />
boards.<lb />
The Lady Pirates were stingy<lb />
on defense from that point on,<lb />
holding the Tigers at bay and<lb />
allowing a mere 12 points in the<lb />
latter part of the second half.<lb />
ECU would never look back, win-<lb />
ning the game 74-54.<lb />
Capping off the week was a<lb />
seemingly normal game against<lb />
UAB (13-10, 6-6) that turned in<lb />
to one that Pirate fans don't see<lb />
on a regular basis.<lb />
Never parting by more than<lb />
six points but changing leads<lb />
17 times, the Pirates and Blaz-<lb />
ers fought until the final horn<lb />
- four times.<lb />
During regulation, the two<lb />
teams played on par with each<lb />
other, entering the half tied-up<lb />
at 38-38. Both teams scored 35<lb />
points in the second half, send-<lb />
ing the game to overtime with<lb />
the score at 73-73.<lb />
The first two overtime peri-<lb />
ods ended with both teams scor-<lb />
ing six and nine points in each<lb />
period respectively. Both teams<lb />
had a chance at the win in each<lb />
period; UAB's Crystal McFadden<lb />
missed a mid-range jumper in the<lb />
first period, ECU'S LaCoya Terry<lb />
hit the front of the rim on a six-<lb />
footer in the second.<lb />
In the third overtime period,<lb />
senior guard Ebonee Downey<lb />
came up big with 24 seconds to<lb />
go, hitting a three to tie the game<lb />
at 94-94. On the ensuing pos-<lb />
session, UAB's Carmen Guzman<lb />
drew a foul from Cherie Mills<lb />
with 0.6 seconds left to send her<lb />
to the free throw line for two<lb />
shots. She converted both and<lb />
sealed the win for the Blazers,<lb />
96-94.<lb />
Mills captured her 20th<lb />
double-double of the season in<lb />
the losing effort and was one<lb />
of four Pirates to reach double<lb />
figures. Senior LaToya Horton<lb />
grabbed a game-high 14 rebounds<lb />
and Terry reached a career-high<lb />
in assists with six.<lb />
The Lady Pirates are on the<lb />
road again this week. They travel<lb />
to El-Paso Friday to take on UTEP<lb />
(13-11, 5-7) and face Tulane (11-<lb />
10, 5-7) Sunday in New Orleans.<lb />
Only two games remain before<lb />
the C-USA tournament, both<lb />
of which will take place in<lb />
Greenville.<lb />

Bleiler's 43.4 on her final<lb />
run allowed her to leapfrog<lb />
Buaas. The Snowmass Village,<lb />
Colo resident, had been in<lb />
third place after Buaas surprised<lb />
even herself by knocking Clark<lb />
off the medal stand with the run<lb />
of her life.<lb />
"All of us were hoping for<lb />
a (U.S.) sweep said Bleiler,<lb />
who was kept out of the 2002<lb />
Olympics on a tiebreaker.<lb />
"But Kjersti stepped it up.<lb />
She rode an amazing race. She<lb />
deserves it. It's disappoint-<lb />
ing because Kelly and Elena<lb />
(Hight, who finished sixth) are<lb />
amazing riders, too   On any<lb />
given day, any of us could have<lb />
gotten on the podium<lb />
Buaas admitted she "never<lb />
thought it was possible" to pre-<lb />
vent an American sweep. The U.S.<lb />
team had the rest of the rider's<lb />
right where they wanted them.<lb />
"We definitely were in the<lb />
other teams' heads he said.<lb />
"When these girls come<lb />
rolling into a halfpipe compe-<lb />
tition, we're rolling in like a<lb />
freight train. It scares the crap<lb />
