ECU Scholars go above and beyond<lb />
Resident<lb />
Service<lb />
Scholars pair up with<lb />
local children for a fun<lb />
day on campus<lb />
CLAIRE MURPHY<lb />
STAFF WRITER<lb />
The ECU Scholars hosted a<lb />
group of 30 Belvior Elementary<lb />
students last month for a fun day<lb />
on campus. The kids ranged in<lb />
age from kindergarten to second<lb />
grade. Each student was paired<lb />
with a Scholar or Honors student<lb />
as a partner for the academic<lb />
year. The Belvior children were<lb />
given school supplies, sweat-<lb />
shirts and Honors Program<lb />
stickers.<lb />
"We want these children to<lb />
become acquainted with ECU<lb />
and know the university is a<lb />
friendly place where they can<lb />
come to learn said Dr. Michael<lb />
Bassman, assistant vice chancel-<lb />
lor of the Honors Program.<lb />
The Scholars are going to<lb />
be tutoring the Belvior kids in<lb />
reading and writing. The ECU<lb />
students will also benefit from<lb />
this experience by interacting<lb />
with ethnically and culturally<lb />
diverse children.<lb />
"I also hope experiences like<lb />
see SCHOLARS page A3<lb />
Thanks to the ECU Scholars, children from Belvior Elementary are going to receive a helping hand this year in reading and writing.<lb />
Princeton Review questions changes to the GRE<lb />
Exams are always changing, but one source believes that the GRE changes may not benefit students<lb />
Changes could do more<lb />
harm than good<lb />
ELISA BIZZOTTO<lb />
STAFF WRITER<lb />
The GRE, or Graduate Record<lb />
Exam, is undergoing changes that<lb />
may not be in the best interests of<lb />
the students taking it. Educational<lb />
Testing Services, the organization<lb />
that administers the assessment,<lb />
claims that the changes being<lb />
made to the GRE will benefit<lb />
the students through increased<lb />
validity, accessibility and secu-<lb />
rity, and will help admissions<lb />
faculty to gain a better under-<lb />
standing of a student's abilities<lb />
through hisher performance on<lb />
the exam.<lb />
However, The Princeton<lb />
Review, who has been working in<lb />
accordance with ETS for 25 years,<lb />
feels as though the organization<lb />
may have ulterior motives.<lb />
Elizabeth Wands, National<lb />
Director of Graduate Programs<lb />
at The Princeton Review, feels<lb />
that the changes to the GRE are<lb />
not being made to better assist<lb />
the students taking the exam,<lb />
but rather to benefit ETS. Wands<lb />
believes that the changes are<lb />
financially motivated and stated<lb />
that in The Princeton Review's<lb />
experience with ETS, they have<lb />
only seen the organization make<lb />
changes when they have been<lb />
affected financially.<lb />
Primarily, Wands has made<lb />
such claims because she feels as<lb />
though the changes being made<lb />
are more of an inconvenience<lb />
to the students taking the exam<lb />
than anything else.<lb />
A significant change to<lb />
the exam is the frequency in<lb />
which it will be administered.<lb />
While the current GRE is offered<lb />
every day of the week with the<lb />
exception of Sundays, the new<lb />
format will be offered a mere<lb />
30 times a year. In addition to<lb />
decreasing the number of times<lb />
in which students have the<lb />
opportunity to take the assess-<lb />
1 ment, ETS is also increasing the<lb />
g cost of the exam.<lb />
2 The current GRE is<lb />
administered as an adaptive<lb />
exam which means that each<lb />
test complies with the abilities<lb />
of the test-taker and questions<lb />
vary according to a student's<lb />
performance. The new format<lb />
will consist of linear questions,<lb />
or questions that are the same<lb />
universally, therefore each ques-<lb />
tion will consist of the same<lb />
content in the same order on<lb />
every administered exam. Wands<lb />
acknowledged that this specific<lb />
change will save ETS a great deal<lb />
of money in that they will not<lb />
have to offer such a significant<lb />
pool of questions.<lb />
Another change being made to<lb />
the GRE is the section of "untried<lb />
questions" that are being added<lb />
to the exam. "Untried questions"<lb />
are those that have never before<lb />
been seen on a standard exam.<lb />
Wands believes that this change<lb />
in particular will be a disad-<lb />
vantage to both students and<lb />
admissions faculty. She claimed<lb />
that this will prove to be more<lb />
of a challenge for students when<lb />
preparing for the test and further,<lb />
admissions faculty will be unable<lb />
to compare student performances<lb />
on previous exams to those on<lb />
the revised formats.<lb />
A circumstance that may<lb />
have validated Wands' beliefs<lb />
about these changes has been<lb />
the delays to the revised exam.<lb />
Wands thinks that the delays<lb />
upon the administration of the<lb />
new exam are due to unsatisfac-<lb />
tory field results that ETS has<lb />
received. It is necessary that the<lb />
organization tests the revised<lb />
exam before it is finalized and<lb />
Wands remarked that ETS was<lb />
probably not as successful in<lb />
the field as they assumed they<lb />
would be.<lb />
Because of these changes<lb />
and others, Wands encourages<lb />
students who have the oppor-<lb />

Campus Living is now<lb />
recruiting for May 2006<lb />
CLAYTON BAUMAN<lb />
STAFF WRITER<lb />
Campus Living is currently<lb />
accepting applications for stu-<lb />
dents interested in becoming a<lb />
Resident Service Manager.<lb />
An informational session<lb />
held last Wednesday outlined all<lb />
of the responsibilities and. ben-<lb />
efits of becoming an RSM.<lb />
Among the leadership expe-<lb />
rience one can gain from the<lb />
job, other benefits include a<lb />
$550 stipend for nine months,<lb />
approximately $3,700 additional<lb />
summer pay, a furnished, air-<lb />
conditioned private room on<lb />
campus and a Pirate nine meal<lb />
per week plan.<lb />
In order to become an RSM,<lb />
 students must be a full time ECU<lb />
S student, either an MBA student<lb />
o with a Hospitality Management<lb />
 background or a rising senior in<lb />
Hospitality Management or be<lb />
an upper class Campus Living<lb />
employee. They also must have<lb />
lived in the residence halls at<lb />
least one semester and have a<lb />
clear judicial record. The students<lb />
cumulative GPA must be a mini-<lb />
mum of 2.5.<lb />
The position lasts for 12<lb />
months beginning May 15.<lb />
A Resident Service Man-<lb />
ager essentially has six posi-<lb />
tion responsibilities including<lb />
supervisor, office manager, team<lb />
member, administrator, trainer<lb />
and university representative.<lb />
Each of these holds their own<lb />
unique set of requirements.<lb />
Allison Walters, Resident<lb />
Service Manager for College<lb />
Hill, described the job as being<lb />
a manageable position in that<lb />
students can set their own sched-<lb />
ules to best benefit themselves.<lb />
Scheduling hours is as easy as log-<lb />
ging onto a scheduling database<lb />
and clicking a desired time slot.<lb />
"Summer actually helps<lb />
a lot more with everyday<lb />
responsibilities said Walters.<lb />
She described summer as<lb />
being a bit more difficult to<lb />
manage schedule-wise because<lb />
it plays out more like a fulltime<lb />
job, but it never got out of hand.<lb />
RSMs are also required to be<lb />
on call 10 days out of a month.<lb />
When on call, an RSM cannot<lb />
be more than approximately 10<lb />
minutes away from the office.<lb />
Students who are interested<lb />
can get more information regard-<lb />
ing the position by visiting the<lb />
Campus Living office at West<lb />
End Dining Hall. The deadline<lb />
for all applications is Feb. 28.<lb />

ACTOR'S DEATH AN ACCI-<lb />
DENT<lb />
The death of actor<lb />
Chris Penn last month was an<lb />
accident, the result of a deadly<lb />
heart condition he made worse<lb />
by taking a prescription cough<lb />
medicine, the Los Angeles<lb />
County Coroner's Office has<lb />
announced.<lb />
"There is absolutely no indi-<lb />
cation that this is anything<lb />
but an accident chief coroner<lb />
investigator Craig Harvey said<lb />
on Monday.<lb />
Penn, 40, younger brother of<lb />
Sean Penn, was found dead in<lb />
his Santa Monica, Calif condo-<lb />
minium on Jan. 24.<lb />
Chris Penn's heart was<lb />
enlarged and weakened by car-<lb />
diomyopathy, according to the<lb />
coroner's office. The "effects of<lb />
multiple medication intake" con-<lb />
tributed to Penn's death, accord-<lb />

coroner's office.<lb />
"We know he had several<lb />
prescriptions, including pro-<lb />
methazine with codeine, which<lb />
featured predominantly in his<lb />

Former McDowell County sheriff<lb />
candidate pleads guilty<lb />
HENDERSONVILLE, N.C. (AP) - A<lb />
former candidate for McDowell County<lb />
sheriff pleaded guilty to committing<lb />
illegal election activities during his<lb />
2002 campaign.<lb />
Adolph "Butch" Justice Jr. pleaded<lb />
guilty Monday to five misdemeanors<lb />
for illegal election conduct while<lb />
he was running for the sheriff's job,<lb />
District Attorney Jeff Hunt said.<lb />
A grand jury had issued five felony<lb />
indictments against Justice last<lb />
March, and Hunt said the case had<lb />
been scheduled for a court hearing<lb />
Monday.<lb />
Justice was the witness for some<lb />
absentee ballots in the election. It is<lb />
a crime to witness absentee ballots<lb />
in an election in which someone is a<lb />
candidate unless he is a near relative<lb />
of the voter. It is likewise a felony for<lb />
anyone not a near relative to possess<lb />
absentee ballots for delivery to a voter<lb />
or return to the board of elections.<lb />
House approves bill that<lb />
encourages breast-feeding<lb />
COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) - Less than a<lb />
year after a woman was asked not to<lb />
nurse her child in a Victoria's Secret<lb />
store in Mount Pleasant, the South<lb />
Carolina House on Tuesday gave key<lb />
approval to a bill that gives women<lb />
the right to breast-feed their children<lb />
in public without fear of being ordered<lb />
out of sight.<lb />
The bill easily received approval with<lb />
no floor debate.<lb />
It lets women breast-feed anywhere<lb />
they have the right to be and exempts<lb />
breast-feeding from indecent<lb />
exposure laws.<lb />
"There's no downside to breast-<lb />
feeding said the bill's sponsor, Rep.<lb />
Chip Limehouse, R-Charleston, who<lb />
added he was bottle-fed himself.<lb />
"Only good things can come out<lb />
of it<lb />
Breast-feeding advocates gathered<lb />
at the Statehouse earlier Tuesday to<lb />
urge the bill's passage.<lb />
Supporters included 2-year-old Julian<lb />
Larsen of Rock Hill, who wore a T-<lb />
shirt that said, "Breast Milk Does a<lb />
Toddler Good<lb />
Heather Pace of Lexington said she<lb />
hopes the bill makes breast-feeding<lb />
in public more acceptable. She said<lb />
other customers harassed her at a<lb />
restaurant while she tried to breast-<lb />
feed her son.<lb />
"It was a stressful situation Pace<lb />
said.<lb />
"I went to great lengths to be<lb />
discreet<lb />
Ucensed midwife Tavish Brinton said<lb />
she was ordered to leave her table at<lb />
a pizza restaurant in West Columbia<lb />
while breast-feeding, but she refused.<lb />
She said such situations discourage<lb />
mothers from breast-feeding, when<lb />
they should be encouraged.<lb />
"No one minds if a mother or father<lb />
gives a child a bottle said Brinton<lb />
of Leesville, who breast-fed her<lb />
three children.<lb />
"Everybody's got to get over it<lb />
Limehouse introduced the bill<lb />
after an incident last summer at a<lb />
Victoria's Secret lingerie store in<lb />
Mount Pleasant.<lb />
Lori Rueger said a store clerk told<lb />
her she could not breast-feed her<lb />
10-week-old daughter in a dressing<lb />
room and encouraged her to use<lb />
a public restroom in another store<lb />
instead, a setting nursing moms call<lb />
unsanitary and uncomfortable. The<lb />
incident prompted protests and mado<lb />
national news.<lb />
Teresa Hill, a nutritionist with the<lb />
state Department of Health and<lb />
Environmental Control, said the state<lb />
is trying to encourage more women<lb />
to breast-feed as part of its strategy<lb />
for controlling obesity statewide.<lb />
The Palmetto State ranks high in the<lb />
percentage of people who are obese<lb />
but near the bottom nationwide<lb />
in mothers who breast-feed their<lb />
children.<lb />
Studies show that breast-feeding<lb />
babies reduces their risk of becoming<lb />
obese later. It helps mothers return<lb />
to a pre-pregnancy weight. It also<lb />
improves a child's immunity system<lb />
and aids their development, Hill<lb />
said.<lb />
"We can make the healthiest choice<lb />
the easiest choice she said.<lb />
The bill still needs a third reading<lb />
in the House before it moves to the<lb />
state Senate.<lb />
Thirty-eight states have already<lb />
passed laws related to breast-feeding.<lb />
Of those, 31 states, including Gecqia<lb />
and North Carolina, allow mothers to<lb />
breast-feed in any public or private<lb />
location, according to the National<lb />
Conference of State Legislatures.<lb />

This Old House' helps turn<lb />
dilapidated row house Into<lb />
family's new home<lb />
WASHINGTON (AP) - Ravaged by fire<lb />
and vacant for a decade, the brick row<lb />
house was an eyesore, its windows<lb />
nailed shut and its facade splotched<lb />
with peeling paint. Then a nonprofit<lb />
group and the gang from PBS' This<lb />
Old House" showed up.<lb />
Now, after a 3 12-month renovation,<lb />
the paint is gone and the brick has<lb />
been restored to its original orange-<lb />
reddish hue. Inside, hardwood floors,<lb />
a semicircular staircase and gleaming<lb />
kitchen appliances greet visitors.<lb />
District of Columbia Mayor Anthony A.<lb />
Williams and a gaggle of onlookers<lb />
gathered Tuesday to celebrate the<lb />
home's transformation and welcome<lb />
the new owners, who will buy the<lb />
three-bedroom, two-bath property for<lb />
$250,000 far below market value.<lb />
"A family has a home Williams said<lb />
as he cut a giant red ribbon.<lb />
"It's a great story<lb />
The 1870s row house, located a<lb />
block away from the Washington<lb />
Convention Center, is just one example<lb />
of the transformation occurring in<lb />
the city's rapidly gentrifying Shaw<lb />
neighborhood, where real estate<lb />
prices are soaring.<lb />
The rehabilitation was chronicled<lb />
by the PBS home makeover show<lb />
This Old House The eight episodes<lb />
featuring the home are airing through<lb />
April.<lb />
"It was one of the worst homes I've<lb />
seen said Norm Abram, the show's<lb />
master carpenter. "It was basically<lb />
a shell<lb />
Mi Casa, a D.Cbased nonprofit<lb />
group that buys city buildings at<lb />
below market rates and then sells<lb />
them to middle- and low-income<lb />
families, purchased the home for $1.<lb />
Williams said the home was sold to<lb />
Mi Casa as part of the district's Home<lb />
Again Initiative, in which the city takes<lb />
control of vacant and abandoned<lb />
properties and turns them over to<lb />
developers.<lb />
The program began in 2002 to target at<lb />
least 2,700 homes in neighborhoods<lb />
with the highest concentrations of<lb />
blight. So far, more than 100 homes<lb />
have been awarded to developers. At<lb />
least one-third must be sold to low-<lb />
and moderate-income families.<lb />
To be a truly healthy, vibrant city you<lb />
really need middle-income, lower-<lb />
moderate-income families Williams<lb />
said after the ribbon cutting.<lb />
That's what makes a real city<lb />
A family of six will move into the new<lb />

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes<lb />
deny breakup report<lb />
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Not true.<lb />
That was Tom Cruise and Katie<lb />
Holmes' response Tuesday to a<lb />
Valentine's Day report by Life &amp; Style<lb />
magazine claiming that the Hollywood<lb />
superstar and his pregnant paramour<lb />
have split up.<lb />
"It should be known that the story is<lb />
100 percent false Arnold Robinson,<lb />
a publicist for the couple, said in<lb />
a statement. "Mr. Cruise and Ms.<lb />
Holmes are still engaged and are<lb />
moving forward with their wedding<lb />
plans, as well as planning for the<lb />
arrival of their child<lb />
The Feb. 27 issue of the magazine,<lb />
which will be on news stands Friday,<lb />
says in a cover story that the public<lb />
pair "plan to keep up the charade of<lb />
their romance until after their baby's<lb />
birth this spring<lb />
Holmes, 27, and Cruise, 43, has been<lb />
engaged since June. They announced<lb />
her pregnancy in October.<lb />
"Despite the malicious fallacies put<lb />
forth by Life &amp; Style magazine, the<lb />
couple is looking forward to a long<lb />
and happy life together as a family<lb />
Robinson said.<lb />
A representative for the magazine<lb />

Iran says 135 swans died of bird<lb />
flu<lb />
TEHRAN, Iran (AP) - Iran on Tuesday<lb />
said 135 wild swans died of bird<lb />
flu in marshlands near the Caspian<lb />
Sea in the country's first case of<lb />
the spreading virus, and officials in<lb />
Germany and Austria said the virus<lb />
had apparently reached there as<lb />
well.<lb />
The disease's likely spread to three<lb />
new countries follows the recent<lb />
deaths of humans from the H5N1<lb />
strain of bird flu in Turkey and Iraq,<lb />
Iran's neighbors, and the march of<lb />
the disease into European countries<lb />
Greece and Italy.<lb />
Olympic officials in Italy said bird flu<lb />
posed no threat to the Turin Olympics,<lb />
but a Nigerian official warned that bird<lb />
flu was fast spreading in that country,<lb />
and a U.N. expert said the strain might<lb />
have surfaced in a second African<lb />
country.<lb />
Bird flu has killed at least 91 people<lb />

The cover of this year's Sports<lb />

Macpherson. "It was like a big<lb />

The cover was shot last summer<lb />
by fashion photographer Raphael<lb />
Mazzucco in the Bahamas.<lb />
Macpherson, 42, holds the record<lb />
for most SI covers - five. Because<lb />
Americans believe you can only<lb />

Macpherson hasn't been doing<lb />

ANOTHER SPLIT<lb />
In the sad world of irrecon-<lb />
cilable differences, Christian<lb />
Slater is seeking joint custody<lb />
of his 4-year-old daughter and<lb />
6-year-old son, The AP reported.<lb />
The actor and his estranged<lb />
wife, television producer Ryan<lb />
Haddon, will be dividing prop-<lb />
erty under the terms of a written<lb />
agreement. The couple married<lb />
in 2000. They separated on Jan.<lb />
1, 2004, according to newly filed<lb />
papers. Originally, the couple<lb />
filed papers saying they had sepa-<lb />
rated in January 2005. Slater's<lb />
screen credits include roles in<lb />
Heathers, Interview With the Vam-<lb />
pire: The Vampire Chronicles and<lb />
broken Arrow.<lb />
since 2003, according to the World<lb />
Health Organization. Almost all the<lb />
human deaths have been linked to<lb />
contact with infected poultry, but<lb />
experts fear the H5N1 virus could<lb />
mutate into a form that spreads easily<lb />
among people, possibly sparking a<lb />
pandemic.<lb />
Iran's official Islamic Republic<lb />
News Agency quoted the country's<lb />
Veterinary Organization as saying<lb />
that "international laboratory results"<lb />
confirmed the wild swans died from<lb />
bird flu. It did not name or give the<lb />
location of the laboratory.<lb />
Health Minister Kamaran Bagheri<lb />
Lankarani said on state-run television<lb />
that Iranian officials have killed all wild<lb />
birds in a three-mile radius around<lb />
where the virus was detected, about<lb />
200 miles northwest of the capital<lb />
Tehran.<lb />
Two dead swans in northern Germany<lb />
were found on the island of Ruegen,<lb />
and regional agriculture ministry<lb />
spokeswoman Iris Uellendahl said<lb />
a preliminary test showed they died<lb />
ofH5N1.<lb />
Agriculture Minister Horst Seehofer<lb />
ordered domestic poultry kept indoors<lb />
beginning Friday instead of Feb. 20 as<lb />
previously ordered. Samples from<lb />
the birds were being taken to a EU<lb />
laboratory in Britain for a definitive<lb />
test, Uellendahl said.<lb />
Two birds found dead in Austria<lb />
appear to also have been infected<lb />
with the H5N1 strain. Hans Seitinger,<lb />
a health official for Styria province,<lb />
said there was a 70 percent chance<lb />
that H5N1 had reached the country,<lb />
according to results from preliminary<lb />
tests carried out on samples from 21<lb />
birds. Samples have been sent for<lb />
confirmation to a lab in England.<lb />
Health officials in Italy said they<lb />
remained vigilant after a deadly strain<lb />
of the virus was detected in the south<lb />
of the country on Saturday.<lb />
Tests conducted on birds and poultry<lb />
in this northern region where the<lb />
Olympics are being held have all<lb />
come back negative, officials said.<lb />
On Saturday, Italy confirmed that six<lb />
wild swans found in the southern<lb />
regions of Sicily, Puglia and Calabria<lb />
tested positive for H5N1. The areas<lb />
are more than 600 miles from Turin.<lb />
The H5N1 strain was first confirmed<lb />
in Africa last week in fowl in three<lb />
states in northern Nigeria. It's now<lb />
suspected in five other states, raising<lb />
concern Nigeria is not taking the<lb />
necessary measures to combat the<lb />
disease.<lb />

(AP)  Brown University<lb />
junior Stuart Thompson jumped<lb />
at the chance to save $30 and<lb />
become a digital pioneer when<lb />
his school bookstore offered a<lb />
discounted, electronic version of<lb />
an American history textbook.<lb />
But after making the pur-<lb />
chase, he noticed a few things<lb />
amiss: He couldn't run a high-<lb />
light marker over key points or<lb />
jot notes in the margins, nor<lb />
could he curl up with the tome<lb />
without printing out the pages.<lb />
He won't rule out another<lb />
e-book, but he's not completely<lb />
sold, either.<lb />
So much for the belief that<lb />
this generation of youths is<lb />
comfortable with everything<lb />
digital: The publishing industry<lb />
has been talking about electronic<lb />
textbooks for a decade already,<lb />
but sales remain minuscule.<lb />
"If you're reading a 100-page<lb />
book, staring at the computer<lb />
that long - I don't think a lot of<lb />
people would find that a better<lb />
way to read said Thompson.<lb />
Of the 100 or so students<lb />
enrolled in the course where<lb />
Houghton Mifflin Cos A People<lb />
and a Nation is assigned, Thomp-<lb />
son was the only student to buy<lb />
the electronic version.<lb />
Brown is offering two other e-<lb />
textbooks this semester, but none<lb />
of the ISO students in those classes<lb />
have bought one, even at 35 percent<lb />
off the price of a new printed copy.<lb />
Students are going to have<lb />
to see more value in e-textbooks<lb />
before they take off, said Larry<lb />
Carr, Brown's director of book-<lb />
store and services.<lb />
For now, it is mostly a curiosity.<lb />
"Students are pretty conser-<lb />
vative when it comes to their<lb />
grades said David Serbun, direc-<lb />
tor of partnerships for Houghton<lb />
Mifflin's college division.<lb />
"Our research has indicated they<lb />
don't want to do anything that's<lb />
a lot different than their peers<lb />
Others, however, say the<lb />
publishers are the ones that are<lb />
conservative, doing little more<lb />
than adding some hyperlinks<lb />
and search capabilities. Tools<lb />
are available for note taking and<lb />
highlighting, but Thompson said<lb />
those are no substitute for mark-<lb />
ing up paper.<lb />
For the most part, e-books<lb />
are merely electronic representa-<lb />
tions of the printed pages.<lb />
"It's like taking a book and<lb />
 trying to turn it into a movie<lb />
just by trying to read pages said<lb />
Alexander Pereira, chief operat-<lb />
ing officer of Xplana Learning<lb />

C. Sidney Burrus, former dean of<lb />

Connecticut man stopped on<lb />
Interstate 95 was in jail Tuesday<lb />
after an investigation tied him<lb />
to a dead body discovered in a<lb />
Florida home, the North Caro-<lb />
lina highway patrol said.<lb />
Troopers who stopped a 1994<lb />
Chrysler Concord headed north<lb />
on 1-95 in Johnston County<lb />
Monday noticed blood on the<lb />
side of the vehicle and the driver's<lb />
hands and arms. The driver was<lb />
. arrested when he failed to produce<lb />
identification and gave troopers<lb />
a false name, patrol spokes-<lb />
man Lt. Everett Clendenin said.<lb />
The driver was later identi-<lb />
fied as Nunding Bartell, 28, of<lb />
Wallingford, Conn. He was being<lb />
held without bond as a fugitive<lb />
from justice from Connecticut,<lb />
Clendenin said in a prepared<lb />
statement. During an interview,<lb />
troopers got information that<lb />
led them to ask law officers in<lb />
Jacksonville, Fla to check on the<lb />
resident of a home there.<lb />
The sheriff's department<lb />
there "confirmed they located<lb />
a body at the residence and<lb />
requested that Bartell be held<lb />

this on campus will help spur addi-<lb />

Our View<lb />
A battle cry for a<lb />
new generation<lb />
He has inspired free Buddy Icons for your<lb />
AIM, T-shirts, underwear, techno remix<lb />
songs and even coffee mugs. There are<lb />
miscellaneous sound clips and videos<lb />
featuring his voice, yet very few people have<lb />
ever seen his face. On the Web site named<lb />
for him, you can find all of these things and<lb />
much more.<lb />
So who is this man of mystery? He is a<lb />
World of Warcraft hero. He is a phenom-<lb />
enon of the Internet. He is an obscure,<lb />
otherwise unremarkable, man. He is <lb />
Leeroy Jenkins.<lb />
For those of you who have not heard<lb />
his battle cry via e-mail or Web or seen<lb />
the video that inspired it all, allow me to<lb />
explain.<lb />
According to Wikipedia.org, Leeroy's<lb />
famous video emerged in 2005 among<lb />
other players of Blizzard Entertainment's<lb />
MMORPG World of Warcraft, and in August<lb />
2005, an article called The Ballad of Leeroy<lb />
Jenkins" in PC Gamer UK boosted his<lb />
notoriety immensely. The video itself you'll<lb />
have to watch, as it would take too long to<lb />
explain how awesome it is in this column.<lb />
But basically, Leeroy becomes the hero<lb />
among a group of "nerds" by defying their<lb />
strategic pre-battle plans and barging into<lb />
the fight with total disregard to his team-<lb />
mates. (His teammates, for the record, were<lb />
not just planning - they were even taking<lb />
the time to calculate survival percentages.)<lb />
Though some do play World of Warcraft and<lb />
other games that way, the majority of the<lb />
public has taken to Leeroy and the video,<lb />
which is two minutes and 50 seconds long<lb />
and has spread like underground wildfire.<lb />
It spread so quickly and became such a<lb />
big deal among gamers that on Nov. 16,<lb />
2005, Alex Trebek himself posed a Leeroy-<lb />
related clue to college students in a college<lb />
tournament edition of Jeopardy.<lb />
How did this happen? I do not have an<lb />
answer. The Internet is amazing and this<lb />
entire ordeal just goes to show you how<lb />
much is possible today. A little over half a<lb />
year ago, no one knew who Leeroy Jenkins<lb />
was, and today he's on my shirt. Check him<lb />
out for yourself at leeroyjenkins.net.<lb />

Cheney's got a gun and he is shooting<lb />
The world reacts to<lb />
the second shot heard<lb />
'round the world<lb />
GARY MCCABE<lb />
j BITTER BOULEVARD<lb />
What could possibly have been<lb />
running through Vice President<lb />
Dick Cheney's mind just seconds<lb />
after his errant shotgun blast<lb />
struck 78-year-old Harry Whit-<lb />
tington in the face, propelling<lb />
him to the Texas soil beneath him?<lb />
Was it concern for Whittington, a<lb />
Texas lawyer with strong political<lb />
ties to the Republican Party? Was he<lb />
worried about the attacks from the<lb />
media and the Democratic Party<lb />
that were surely soon to follow?<lb />
Or maybe - just maybe - was he<lb />
thinking to himself, "Great, where<lb />
am I supposed to buy lime out<lb />
here in the middle of nowhere?"<lb />
I know what was running though my<lb />
mind when I heard about the second<lb />
"shot heard 'round the world<lb />
I sure as hell wasn't sur-<lb />
prised to hear that it happened.<lb />
Quite frankly, 1 was surprised<lb />
to hear that it was an accident.<lb />
All I had heard was that he had<lb />
shot a man and, instantly, my<lb />
brain conjured up the image of<lb />
Cheney standing over the body<lb />
of an animal rights protester<lb />
with a smoking gun in his hand,<lb />
specks of blood on his brow and<lb />
a maniacal smile creeping across<lb />
his bulbous face.<lb />
I'm not saying that Cheney is<lb />
some sort of blood-thirsty mon-<lb />
ster. What I am saying, though, is<lb />
that had he been vice president of<lb />
the United States in 1804 instead<lb />
of 2006, not only would Cheney<lb />
have killed Alexander Hamilton<lb />
in a duel, he would have gone after<lb />
Hamilton's wife, kids and mistress<lb />
after he was finished. I'm being<lb />
honest - that's the impression I've<lb />
gotten about Cheney over the years.<lb />
Whether you like him or<lb />
not, there's no denying that<lb />
Cheney is a very intense<lb />
and frightening individual.<lb />
For those who haven't been fol-<lb />
lowing the story thus far, here<lb />
is a quick recap before 1 con-<lb />
tinue. On Saturday afternoon,<lb />
Cheney was quail hunting on<lb />
a privately owned Texas ranch<lb />
with a select group of friends<lb />
and was accompanied by his<lb />
ever-present Secret Service agents<lb />
and traveling medical squad.<lb />
Cheney set his sights on a quail<lb />
as it flew past him. He followed<lb />
the bird and whipped around<lb />
to send the creature to "birdie<lb />
heaven" only to send a round<lb />
of birdshot into th" face, neck<lb />
and chest of Whittington, who<lb />
had apparently broken the line<lb />
without alerting Cheney of his<lb />
position.<lb />
From then on, 1 would<lb />
assume the 78-year-old man went<lb />
down like a sack of tomatoes<lb />
(a sack of potatoes is so cliche.)<lb />
Lucky for Whittington, our vice<lb />
president can't go out to get his<lb />
morning paper without his mobile<lb />
EMS squad. They quickly began<lb />
treating the non-quail and rushed<lb />
him to a hospital. It has to be the first<lb />
time anyone's been thankful that<lb />
the second most powerful man alive<lb />
can't go for a leisurely walk without<lb />
fear of a life-ending heart attack.<lb />
Unconfirmed reports say that<lb />
Cheney was immediately apolo-<lb />
getic, showing great concern for<lb />
Whittington. It's a pretty major<lb />
thing for Cheney to apologize. I<lb />
may be wrong, but I don't think<lb />
Cheney has apologized once<lb />
during his entire scandal-ridden<lb />
tenure as vice president. Halibur-<lb />
ton? The war in Iraq? The CIA<lb />
leak? He didn't even consider<lb />
apologizing or taking responsi-<lb />
bility. But he shoots one man in<lb />
the throat and he's all apologies.<lb />
I guess he is human after all.<lb />
What happened in the 12 hours or<lb />
so after the shooting is unknown.<lb />
We know that no one alerted<lb />
the press and that someone may<lb />
or may not have informed the<lb />
White House. The news broke<lb />
when the owner of the ranch<lb />
released the information on<lb />
his Web site. Cheney's where-<lb />
abouts were unknown. Maybe he<lb />
was sitting vigil. Maybe he was<lb />
sleeping one off. Who knows?<lb />
Once the story hit the media,<lb />
it took a strange path. At first,<lb />
there was outrage and shock<lb />
that you would expect but when<lb />
it was reported that Whitting-<lb />
ton was in good shape and on<lb />
track to make a full recovery, it<lb />
became funny and fodder for<lb />
jokes, most of which centered on<lb />
the vice president's first name<lb />
and where Whittington was shot<lb />
(the face.) How crass  Even<lb />
President Bush planned to coun-<lb />
ter the bad PR by laughing it off.<lb />
But the laughter stopped on Tuesday.<lb />
All of the sudden it wasn't<lb />
so funny when news broke that<lb />
Whittington had suffered a heart<lb />
attack and had birdshot lodged<lb />
in his heart. He was rushed to<lb />
intensive care that evening.<lb />
So just as the American people<lb />
were rallying around the Repub-<lb />
lican party after Bush's stirring<lb />
State of the Union Address (oops,<lb />
sarcasm doesn't translate to print)<lb />
the administration goes and<lb />
shoots itself in the throat, en foot,<lb />
again and creates a new disaster<lb />
for themselves. Could things get<lb />
any worse for Bush and Cheney?<lb />
I'm sure it can. From the minute I<lb />
heard about this, I've been secretly<lb />
hoping that it would come out<lb />
that Whittington was going to<lb />
testify before Congress and this<lb />
was Cheney's way of shutting<lb />
him up. That would be awesome.<lb />
In reality, the worst thing that could<lb />
happen for the administration<lb />
is if Whittington dies. Actually,<lb />
they should count their blessings<lb />
that he didn't kick it on Saturday<lb />
- the elderly are notoriously fragile<lb />
human beings.<lb />
One time, I walked past an<lb />
older gentleman and the wind<lb />
from my body actually shattered<lb />
his hip. I felt awful for months.<lb />
All joking aside, this is an awful<lb />
story. AU the speculation and rumors<lb />
still boil down to the fact that this<lb />
was an accident and a terrible<lb />
tragedy. Cheney is currently being<lb />
crucified by the media and at press<lb />
time, hasn't publicly spoken of the<lb />
incident. Instead, Cheney has been<lb />
sitting bedside with Whittington<lb />
and his family, ensuring that he gets<lb />
the best care possible. That's much<lb />
more important at this time.<lb />
There is a lesson to be learned<lb />
from this though and I hope that<lb />
Cheney gets the message that<lb />
there are repercussions for your<lb />
actions. Cheney has had a cava-<lb />
lier attitude from the moment<lb />
he stepped into the White House<lb />
and even though he'll never<lb />
admit it, he's made his share of<lb />
mistakes because of it.<lb />
This is his Ghost of Christmas<lb />
Past, Present and Future in one hefty<lb />
dose. At press time, Whittington<lb />
was in stable condition. For every-<lb />
one's sake - especially Vice Presi-<lb />
dent Cheney's - let's hope it stays<lb />
that way. Otherwise, it'll be a long<lb />
three years until he's out of office.<lb />
And for the record, killing animals<lb />
for sport is inhumane and because<lb />
quails can't fight back, you all got<lb />
what you deserve.<lb />

Dear Editor:<lb />
This letter is written in response<lb />
to Daniel Brock's opinion column<lb />
entitled, "Abolish Black History<lb />
Month In his argument for the<lb />
dissolution of Black History Month,<lb />
Mr. Brock states, "If Black people<lb />
want to continue their march<lb />
toward equality, they need to wake<lb />
up and realize that Black History<lb />
Month is holding them back  if<lb />
they choose to remain shackled<lb />
to this antiquated tradition it will<lb />
only serve to keep up the walls of<lb />
segregation, separation and racism,<lb />
to facilitate the feelings of ill will<lb />
and animosity He continues,<lb />
"Black people, in their struggle for<lb />
equality and social justice, must<lb />
take responsibility and pride in<lb />
their culture that goes beyond the<lb />
superficial celebrations of memo-<lb />
rial services and parades. They<lb />
must, as a people, work to reduce<lb />
the behaviors and attitudes that<lb />
perpetuate negative stereotypes<lb />
What is curious about Mr.<lb />
Brock's statements is that he<lb />
seemingly portrays a unified<lb />
America and a unified front for<lb />
the abolishment of racism. He<lb />
starts, "We need to move for-<lb />
ward But in his rhetoric which I<lb />
have cited, he separates blacks and<lb />
places the burden of educating<lb />
this same America and its citizens<lb />
upon the blacks, for it seems to be<lb />
his belief that the fault of rampant<lb />
I<lb />
inequality which plagues our<lb />
schools and America lies with<lb />
black people. If we are to be truly<lb />
unified, does that burden not rest<lb />
with all of us?<lb />
This past year, I taught the<lb />
state's curriculum for eighth<lb />
grade history, which is a course<lb />
specifically on North Carolina<lb />
history. Buried in the back of the<lb />
book, beyond the Revolutionary<lb />
War and the Civil War, is the<lb />
chapter impossible to reach in a<lb />
year, which concerns the impact<lb />
four N.C. A&amp;T students made on<lb />
the Civil Rights Movement. These<lb />
four gentlemen protested three<lb />
years prior to the lunch counter<lb />
sit-in directed by Dr. King and<lb />
the SCLC and their achievements<lb />
were relegated to the nether<lb />
regions of a textbook.<lb />
Nowhere in this text are the<lb />
Wilmington Race Riots of 1898<lb />
mentioned, during which the<lb />
whites of Wilmington, lead by<lb />
Colonel Alfred Waddell, a former<lb />
U.S. Congressman and Confeder-<lb />
ate veteran, overthrew the black<lb />
businesses and killed upward of<lb />
100 black men, women and chil-<lb />
dren. It was during this time that<lb />
the only black daily newspaper in<lb />
the United States, The Daily Record,<lb />
was burned. This was omitted<lb />
from North Carolina's proud his-<lb />
tory. So were the non-violent Civil<lb />
Rights demonstrations that later<lb />
I<lb />
took place in nearby Sanford, N.C.<lb />
It also wasn't mentioned in the<lb />
N.C. history text that the entire<lb />
North Carolina congressional<lb />
delegation opposed the Voting<lb />
Rights Act of 1965. Curious, I<lb />
thought it was our state's history.<lb />
So where are students sup-<lb />
posed to learn of this history? The<lb />
glaring omissions from our history<lb />
books is reminiscent of the hush-<lb />
hush cover up of Nazi Germany's<lb />
death camps that ensued following<lb />
the collapse of Hitler's Third Reich<lb />
and continues today in many<lb />
parts of Europe. No one wants to<lb />
reflect on the atrocities inflicted<lb />
on blacks as a result of their color.<lb />
And without Black History Month,<lb />
most of what we as Americans<lb />
have learned about blacks has no<lb />
place in our schools' curricula.<lb />
Mr. Brock also suggests that "as<lb />
a gesture of good will and intent"<lb />
that Columbus Day be renamed<lb />
George Washington Carver Day,<lb />
since Mr. Carver "gave us the<lb />
modern day manna of peanut<lb />
butter" (this being the absolute<lb />
least of George Washington Carv-<lb />
er's achievements). And, had Mr.<lb />
Brock truly had an awareness of<lb />
black history, he would be aware<lb />
that the U.S. Congress has already<lb />
announced Jan. 1,1946, as George<lb />
Washington Carver Day.<lb />
Thanks,<lb />

Valentine's Day is another commercial attempt to<lb />

To the person who said they have lost faith in the<lb />
business professors at ECU, professors are not here to<lb />
hold your hand. They "show you the door You have<lb />
to "walk through the door" of knowledge. I think that<lb />
if you spent more time studying and less time ranting<lb />
about your professors, you might see the light. You<lb />
had better get in gear or the real world wilfeat you<lb />
alive, MBA or no MBA.<lb />
I am always willing to help out my friends and give<lb />
advice, but it is starting to affect my own life. I never<lb />
get advice when I need it and I always worry about<lb />
my friends. Am I being too much of a father figure<lb />
; and not a normal college student? Can I please get<lb />
some advice this time!<lb />
If you are frugal (not cheap), that means that you<lb />
have discipline and will be able to retire before most<lb />
everyone else. Reading that the average guy spends<lb />
$128 and the average female spends $74 makes me<lb />
sick and shows the disparity between genders and<lb />
j waste that show Valentine's Day as a bad cultural<lb />
 symbol.<lb />
They should film "Cops" in Greenville.<lb />
1 I have never heard of a single person who has been<lb />
hired because they were Greek. In fact, the frat guys<lb />
I know are a good two or three years behind in terms<lb />
of graduating. All being in a fraternity means is that<lb />
you have to have an organization behind you to feel<lb />
cool" and that you are most likely an alcoholic.<lb />
Please turn off the heat in the Speight Building<lb />
because every classroom is 900 degrees.<lb />
Daniel Brock should write all of the articles in TEC.<lb />
If you live in Umstead Hall and tip the pizza guy<lb />
$3 then you deserve a pat on the back. Entirely<lb />
too many Umstead residents tip stingily if at all.<lb />
Encourage your neighbors to tip the pizza guy $3.<lb />
Gas isn't cheap.<lb />
Can someone from TEC please do an article on a<lb />
band that people have actually heard of and would<lb />
like to see a live performance of. Like Fifth Gen-<lb />
eration, DJ. Williams or something other than a<lb />
"screamo" rock band. Thanks!<lb />
To the people who trash Nascar and thi nk it's a just a<lb />

Sunday. This is the best race of the year. Watch these<lb />

might get hooked like me and watch Speed Chan-<lb />

Why don't people turn down their cell phones in the<lb />
library? I'm trying to write a paper and I hear annoying<lb />
ringtones going off all the time. I completely under-<lb />
stand listening to music while you are in the library,<lb />
but don't turn the volume up so even a person who<lb />
is 20 feet away can hear every word. It's just blatant<lb />
disrespect for the rules and for everyone else there.<lb />
How does UNCW get Kanye West to perform at their<lb />
University? Better question, when was the last time ECU<lb />
had a big act like this on campus? What happened?<lb />
Daniel Brock, you nailed it with your article on the<lb />
ECU parking Gestapo. Well done.<lb />
I used to read the Pirate Rants in the mornings<lb />
to start my day off right with a few good laughs.<lb />
Nowadays, however, I read them just before bed. The<lb />
useless ramblings chock-full of boring, unoriginal<lb />
thoughts help me get to sleep fast! Thanks Ranters!<lb />
Icebreaker activities are so stupid. I hate them.<lb />
J Everyone's sitting there and it's tense and the last<lb />
' thing you want to talk about is an animal that<lb />
describes your personality that also has the same first<lb />
letter as your last name. Then you're worried about<lb />
sounding like an idiot, but someone says something<lb />
and your like, "At least I won't sound like that much<lb />
of an idiot There has got to be a better way to get<lb />
a group of people comfortable with each other.<lb />
Greenville's finest have once again identified the<lb />
town's most critical need. They sit out at University<lb />
Suites and give me seatbelt tickets and tickets for<lb />
being five minutes over in the two hour parking zone.<lb />
If you have a wife, girlfriend, mistress, hump buddy<lb />
or just a best friend girl, this is what you should have<lb />
done Tuesday. A) Buy or make a card (notebook paper<lb />
and red marker counts) B) Say "Happy Valentine's<lb />
Day" (Happy V-Day will do) C) Let her know you have<lb />
some form or love in her general direction ("I love<lb />
you" is gold here!) and finally  D) If she gives you<lb />
; something, freaking acknowledge it with a heartfelt<lb />
kiss. (A hugembrace will suffice). Any questions? OK,<lb />
there should be no excuses for next year! I know this<lb />
day is marked as a lame one, but roll with it. It really<lb />
is simply expected.<lb />
When the person helping you with homework is using<lb />
the simplest terms and you still don't get it, you need<lb />
help. Help not with the work but with your brain.<lb />
Who is this Kanye West? His name is spelled K-a-n-<lb />
y-e. Can someone please get it right for once?<lb />
My roommate is transferring because he says North<lb />
Carolina smells bad.<lb />
To whoever wrote the "Frat Facts what were you<lb />

Why is it that all guys really want to do is see breasts<lb />
and not care about the person. I am a straight guy<lb />
and I really want to know the person before seeing<lb />
anything under the clothing. All the guys need to<lb />
grow and realize that a female will like you better if<lb />
you look her in the eyes not her chest.<lb />
I don't know who has heard about it, but there is a<lb />
group trying to get the statue of a Confederate soldier<lb />
in front of the courthouse downtown removed. I<lb />
think that is crazy. It is a part of our history and is there<lb />
to honor the soldiers who bravely fought in the war.<lb />
There should not be any talk about removing it at all!<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 />

Imagine a biology e-book<lb />
showing video of DNA's double<lb />
helix coming to life, rather than<lb />
the two-dimensional illustra-<lb />
tion typically found in printed<lb />
books.<lb />
Or think of a math book<lb />
with a built-in calculator or<lb />
spreadsheet so students can<lb />
try out formulas as they read.<lb />
Waterloo Maple Incs Maplesof t,<lb />
for instance, is now making<lb />
completely digital an advanced<lb />
mathematical textbook that used<lb />
to come with a CD.<lb />
Lewis Mandell, a University<lb />
of Buffalo professor who writes<lb />
and publishes his own e-text-<lb />
book, said he's able to update his<lb />
finance books more frequently.<lb />
"The investment world is<lb />
changing on a weekly basis he<lb />
said. "Tax rates change every year<lb />
Publishers say that demand<lb />
for digital-only editions<lb />
and features aren't strong.<lb />
More importantly, profes-<lb />
sors are demanding consistency<lb />
with the printed versions so<lb />
page numbers match and read-<lb />
ings are easier to assign, said<lb />
Sandi Kirshner, chief market-<lb />
ing officer for Pearson PLC's<lb />
higher education group.<lb />
Perhaps that'll change as<lb />
e-book sales continue to grow,<lb />
but publishers say there's not<lb />
much incentive when e-books<lb />
remain in the single digits as<lb />
a percentage of printed books.<lb />
Their biggest selling point for<lb />
now is price, and even there, pub-<lb />
lishers say they feel constrained.<lb />
"A lot of people's perceptions<lb />
is that e-books, that can't cost<lb />
publishers anything said Ginny<lb />
Moffat, vice president for course<lb />
content delivery at McGraw-Hill<lb />
Cos Higher Education unit.<lb />
"Most of the publisher's cost<lb />
is not in paper, printing and<lb />
binding. Most of it is in editorial,<lb />
reviewing content, making sure<lb />
it's accurate<lb />
Yet with students spending<lb />
hundreds of dollars a semester<lb />
on books, they are looking for<lb />
deep savings on something they<lb />
wouldn't be able to sell back at<lb />
the end of the term.<lb />
Even the 35 percent mark-<lb />
down for e-books at Brown is only<lb />
slightly less than the 25 percent<lb />
discount for used printed copies.<lb />
And e-books come with addi-<lb />
tional restrictions: They are<lb />
encrypted to prevent sharing, and<lb />
the ones from Thomson Corp.<lb />
are even designed to expire in a<lb />
year and prevent printing more<lb />
than 100 pages a week, said Jeff<lb />
Cohen, advertising and promo-<lb />
tions manager for MBS Textbook<lb />
Exchange Inc which distributes<lb />
e-books from several publishers.<lb />
Publishers say they are will-<lb />
ing to accept lower margins<lb />
on e-books for now while they<lb />
figure out the technology and<lb />
learn more about the market, but<lb />
some say the current discounts<lb />
can't last forever.<lb />
Another challenge is getting<lb />
students to even know about the<lb />
e-book option.<lb />
MBS started a pilot last fall<lb />
where e-books from several pub-<lb />
lishers are sold in bookstores of 10<lb />
universities, so students wouldn't<lb />
have to know to go to a publish-<lb />
er's Web site to buy them. Brown<lb />
and about 40 additional schools<lb />
joined the program last month.<lb />
Cards are placed next to<lb />
the printed books on shelves.<lb />
Students grab one, pay for it at<lb />
the register and use the code on<lb />
it to activate and download the<lb />
e-book.<lb />
E-books are also popular at<lb />
predominantly online colleges<lb />
like Kaplan University, said<lb />
David Harpool, Kaplan's chief<lb />
operating officer for academics.<lb />
"They've chosen this format<lb />
for learning he said.<lb />
"They are so used to doing<lb />
everything else online<lb />
But Kirshner believes it could<lb />
take as many as 10 more years for<lb />
e-books to become as common-<lb />
place as print. Then again, she<lb />
made that prediction a decade<lb />
ago, she said, "and those 10 years<lb />
have come and gone<lb />
"I personally might have<lb />
thought that this change would<lb />
be happening sooner and faster<lb />
than it is, but there's no doubt it<lb />
is happening<lb />
GHE from page A1<lb />
tunity to take the GRE in its<lb />
current format to register<lb />
before the changes are applied.<lb />
She feels that while the revised<lb />
format may not be impossible<lb />
compared to the current, it<lb />
will be significantly different<lb />
and it would be a lot more<lb />
convenient for students to<lb />
take advantage of the delay.<lb />
The Princeton Review will<lb />
be available to assist students in<lb />
preparation for the revised GRE<lb />
format in the summer of 2007.<lb />

Relay for Life coming in April<lb />
It's time to sign up to<lb />
walk for a cure<lb />
RACHEL KING<lb />
NEWS EDITOR<lb />
On April 28, the friends and<lb />
family of cancer survivors and<lb />
cancer victims will gather at<lb />
South Central High School in<lb />
Winterville in honor of those<lb />
who have suffered from the<lb />
disease. Beginning at 6 p.m<lb />
participants in the American<lb />
Cancer Society's Relay for Life<lb />
will begin to walk, and they will<lb />
walk until 6 p.m. the next day to<lb />
raise money for the ACS.<lb />
"The Relay for Life is a fun-<lb />
filled overnight event designed<lb />
to celebrate survivorship and<lb />
raise money to help the American<lb />
Cancer Society save lives, help<lb />
those who have been touched by<lb />
cancer, and empower individuals<lb />
to fight back against this disease.<lb />
During the event, teams of people<lb />
gather at schools, fairgrounds, or<lb />
parks and take turns walking or<lb />
running laps. Each team keeps<lb />
at least one team member on the<lb />
track at all times according to the<lb />
Pitt County Relay for Life Web site.<lb />
"Relay is much more than a<lb />
walk around a track. It is a time<lb />
to remember those lost to cancer<lb />
and celebrate those who have<lb />
survived. It is a night for people<lb />
who have shared the same experi-<lb />
ence to comfort and console one<lb />
another<lb />
"This year will be bigger than<lb />
ever; we have traditionally held<lb />
this event at the fairgrounds, but<lb />
we have now moved to the high<lb />
school to accommodate over 400<lb />
survivors and thousands of par-<lb />
ticipants said Kelly Wheeler,<lb />
chairperson for ECU'S represen-<lb />
tation at the Relay for Life.<lb />
The event will be huge, with<lb />
many, many teams forming to<lb />
walk for all 24 hours without stop-<lb />
ping, because, as Wheeler put it,<lb />
"cancer doesn't stop All it takes to<lb />
form a team is five willing friends<lb />
and signing up at the next meeting.<lb />
"The reality is, one in three<lb />
people will be diagnosed with<lb />
cancer every day Wheeler said.<lb />
"That's you and two people<lb />
beside you in a line at Wal-Mart,<lb />
or at the grocery store. It will<lb />
and has affected people without<lb />
cause, reason, or purpose<lb />
The next meeting for the<lb />
ECU team will be March 8 at<lb />
7 p.m. at St. James Methodist<lb />
Church off of Fifth Street.<lb />

Vice President Dick Cheney accepts blame for hunting accident<lb />
(KRT) WASHINGTON<lb />
Breaking four days of silence, an<lb />
obviously shaken Vice President<lb />
Dick Cheney accepted blame<lb />
Wednesday for shooting his<lb />
hunting companion last week-<lb />
end, said alcohol wasn't involved<lb />
and defended his handling of the<lb />
incident.<lb />
Speaking with uncharacter-<lb />
istic emotion, Cheney recalled<lb />
his horror when he realized that<lb />
he had wounded lawyer Harry<lb />
Whittington while hunting Sat-<lb />
urday in South Texas. Cheney<lb />
spoke publicly about the incident<lb />
for the first time about an hour<lb />
after Whittington's doctors had<lb />
predicted a full recovery for the<lb />
78-year-old Austin man.<lb />
"The image of him falling is<lb />
something I'll never be able to get<lb />
out of my mind. I fired and there<lb />
was Harry falling Cheney told<lb />
Fox News. "It was, I would have<lb />
to say, one of the worst days of<lb />
my life<lb />
Cheney said he ran over to<lb />
the bleeding victim and told<lb />
him, "Harry, I had no idea you<lb />
were there He said Whittington<lb />
didn't respond.<lb />
While speculation on the<lb />
Web and elsewhere has focused<lb />
on the possibility that alcohol<lb />
may have been a factor, the vice<lb />
president ruled that out. He said<lb />
he'd had a beer at lunch - four<lb />
or five hours before the incident<lb />
- but wasn't under the influence<lb />
of alcohol at the time of shoot-<lb />
ing.<lb />
The other members of the<lb />
hunting party were Pamela Wille-<lb />
ford, the U.S. ambassador to Swit-<lb />
zerland; Katharine Armstrong,<lb />
a ranch owner and Cheney's<lb />
host; and Sara Armstrong Hixon,<lb />
Armstrong's sister.<lb />
"Nobody was drinking,<lb />
nobody was under the influ-<lb />
ence Cheney said.<lb />
While he was contrite about<lb />
the shooting, he expressed<lb />
no regrets about his failure to<lb />
acknowledge the incident pub-<lb />
licly until about 18 hours later.<lb />
The first public notice came<lb />
Sunday afternoon, when Arm-<lb />
strong called a local newspaper.<lb />
"I thought that was the right<lb />
call.  I still do Cheney said.<lb />
"I'm comfortable with the way<lb />
we did it<lb />
Although some administra-<lb />
tion officials initially had sug-<lb />
gested that Whittington was<lb />
at least partly to blame for the<lb />
shooting by failing to make his<lb />
presence known, Cheney took<lb />
full responsibility in the televi-<lb />
sion interview.<lb />
"It's not Harry's fault. You<lb />
can't blame anybody else he<lb />
said. "I'm the guy who pulled the<lb />
trigger and shot my friend<lb />
In Texas, a hospital spokes-<lb />
man said Whittington was "doing<lb />
extremely well" after a mild<lb />
heart attack Tuesday that doctors<lb />
blamed on a birdshot pellet that<lb />
lodged in his heart.<lb />
Peter Banko, a spokesman<lb />
for Christus Spohn Hospital<lb />
Corpus Christi-Memorial, said<lb />
Whittington "wonders what<lb />
all the hoopla is about" and<lb />
considers the controversy sur-<lb />
rounding his wounds "much ado<lb />

Campus Confessions:<lb />
I like to pick my ear and feed the ear<lb />
wax to my girlfriend's cat. I think the<lb />
cat likes this more than I do.<lb />
I hate it when people touch my<lb />
thumbs. I hate it to the point of<lb />
becoming very violent.<lb />
Lying is better than telling the truth.<lb />
It's always easier.<lb />
I haven't told anyone, but I made<lb />
out with my cousin the last time she<lb />
visited. Look, she was really hot.<lb />
My confession is that campus<lb />
confessions are for morons. Does<lb />
that make me a moron?<lb />
I hate fried green tomatoes and my<lb />
mom thinks they are my favorite. I<lb />
don't tell her because I'm afraid it<lb />
would break her heart after all these<lb />
years.<lb />
I had a nice rotation of three girls and<lb />
everything was going fine, but now<lb />
somehow I lost them all. Life sucks<lb />
I skip class to have sex with my girlfriend.<lb />
I can't stop spending money. I've<lb />
maxed out all four of my credit cards<lb />
and I still keep buying things.<lb />
There Is this really hot guy in my<lb />
history class who I've kind of been<lb />
following around campus. Does that<lb />
qualify as stalking?<lb />
When people say dumb things in<lb />
class, I want to just smack them. Shut<lb />
up, you sound stupid, but I guess the<lb />
truth is that you really are.<lb />
When I'm walking through Wright<lb />
Place listening to my mp3 player, I'm<lb />
secretly rocking out to "Like a Virgin<lb />
And I'm a guy.<lb />
I haven't shaved my legs in three<lb />
weeks. What? It's cold out.<lb />
When my roommate is not in our room<lb />
I bite my toenails and look at porn.<lb />
I listen to my mp3 player on my way<lb />
to class because I'm tired of having<lb />
to say hello to people who I don't<lb />
even like.<lb />
Last weekend I consumed more<lb />
alcohol than I thought was humanly<lb />
possible.<lb />
I've been seeing this guy for about<lb />
two weeks, so does it count as<lb />
"cheating" if I'm sleeping with his<lb />
roommate?<lb />
I hooked up in the stairwell of my dorm.<lb />
I'm under 21, but managed to sneak<lb />
into 519.<lb />
I've always wanted to hook up on one<lb />
of the slinky buses.<lb />
There's no stopping curiosity<lb />
Recipe:<lb />
Grilled Sour Cherry Pta<lb />
3 cups all-purpose flour<lb />
12 cup sugar<lb />
1 teaspoon baking powder<lb />
3 tablespoons cold butter<lb />
3 eggs, lightly beaten<lb />
1 cup water<lb />
12 cup champagne or vinegar<lb />
1 cup pitted Bing cherries<lb />
3 cups thin pastry cream<lb />
34 cup cherry preserves<lb />
In the bowl of a food processor fitted<lb />
with a metal blade, combine the<lb />
flour, sugar and baking powder. Cut<lb />
in the butter. Pulse until butter is well<lb />
distributed and the mixture resembles a<lb />
coarse meal. Add eggs and pulse again<lb />
until dough clumps together. Gather the<lb />
dough into a ball. Divide dough and<lb />
wrap in waxed paper. Chill for one hour.<lb />
Add water and vinegar to a<lb />
medium pot. Add cherries and<lb />
cook until cherries are soft. Drain.<lb />
Heat up grill. Butter a 10-inch round<lb />
cake pan. Roll dough into a circle and<lb />
transfer to cake pan. Pinch edges to<lb />
form a crust, like that of a pan pizza.<lb />
Fill dough with pastry cream. Spread<lb />
cherry preserves and cherries. Race<lb />
pie on pizza on pizza stone on grill.<lb />
Cook until dough is crispy and brown,<lb />
about one hour.<lb />
Pastry Cream:<lb />
1 quart whole milk<lb />
1 vanilla bean, split<lb />
10 large egg yolks<lb />
1 cup granulated sugar<lb />
34 cup comstarch<lb />
In a 2-quart saucepan, combine the<lb />
milk and vanilla bean and bring to a<lb />
boil. Turn off heat immediately and<lb />
keep warm while you whisk the yolks.<lb />
In a medium bowl, combine the yolks,<lb />
sugar, and comstarch and whisk until<lb />
thoroughly combined. While whisking,<lb />
slowly add the warm milk mixture into<lb />
the yolks and then transfer this back<lb />
into the saucepan over medium heat.<lb />
Whisk constantly bring the custard<lb />
to a boil; it should begin to thicken<lb />
immediately. Whisk for three minutes.<lb />
Pour through a fine-mesh strainer into<lb />
a clean bowl and use a rubber spatula<lb />
to push everything through. Place a<lb />
sheet of plastic wrap directly on the<lb />
surface of the custard to prevent a<lb />
skin from forming.<lb />
Curious George goes to<lb />
the movies<lb />
SCOTTY WILLIAMS<lb />
SENIOR WRITER <lb />
As a young boy, this reviewer<lb />
was a huge fan of the Curious<lb />
George books. The little monkey<lb />
who often got into crazy situa-<lb />
tions because of his crazy curios-<lb />
ity became the material for con-<lb />
stant page-turners about going to<lb />
the circus, going to school and<lb />
watching television. Anything<lb />
became an adventure for the<lb />
curious little monkey.<lb />
Thus, when an advertise-<lb />
ment proclaimed that Curious<lb />
George's adventures would be<lb />
hitting the big screen, you can<lb />
guess it, Scotty was curious.<lb />
So when all the parents shuf-<lb />
fled their toddlers and little ones<lb />
into the theater and fed them<lb />
popcorn and prepared for the<lb />
movie, a high anticipation set in.<lb />
Normally, this makes for major<lb />
disappointment. Not so here.<lb />
For children who have not<lb />
read the books (because let's<lb />
admit it, Curious George was the<lb />
product of a generation before this<lb />
one) it's still entirely entertaining.<lb />
There are a lot of things<lb />
that go right in this movie. Will<lb />
Ferrell's comedy is often lost on<lb />
people and sometimes his humor<lb />
can absolutely rub someone the<lb />
wrong way. As the Man in the<lb />
Yellow Hat (known as Ted for<lb />
this movie) Ferrell finds a place<lb />
where his humor works and even<lb />
is appropriate at times.<lb />
The music of this movie is<lb />
done by Jack Johnson and fits the<lb />
movie perfectly.<lb />
When making an animated<lb />
movie, the trouble is the audience.<lb />
You're trying to entertain both<lb />
the child and the adult who come<lb />
from two different sets of values<lb />
and two different ideas of what<lb />
is funny. This movie manages to<lb />
make adults and children laugh<lb />
at the same things and the same<lb />
situations. It avoids being full of<lb />
childish, slapstick humor and<lb />
embraces a humor that's in the<lb />
middle.<lb />
One of the wonderful things<lb />
about this movie is the magic.<lb />
The point of the movie is letting<lb />
your curiosity guide you, and<lb />
the journey of following curios-<lb />
ity is magic. Watching Curious<lb />
George follow things and bask<lb />
in the subtle joy of discovery on<lb />
the screen is enough to make you<lb />
smile throughout.<lb />
There are a few times when<lb />
you don't smile because of the<lb />
well-voiced villain played by<lb />
David Cross. Cross has been in<lb />
some very humorous movies (he<lb />
was the wheelchair-bound man<lb />
in Scary Movie 2) and his voice<lb />
talents here show that he has the<lb />
potential to be a very good villain<lb />
in a live-action movie down the<lb />
The Man in the Yellow Hat, known as Ted in the movie, carries his curious monkey, George, away from danger.<lb />
road. He's got a kind of sarcastic<lb />
humor that will make you despise<lb />
him at certain points, but that's<lb />
exactly what you should get out<lb />
of a movie villain.<lb />
The producers and screenwrit-<lb />
ers of this movie deserve one major<lb />
credit - they don't let George talk.<lb />
The legacy of the silent monkey<lb />
could have been ruined by giving<lb />
him a voice. (Then again, what<lb />
would George say? Would he be<lb />
articulate or childish? It's too<lb />
much to ponder.)<lb />
By not letting George talk,<lb />
so much more is invested in his<lb />
facial expressions and nonverbal<lb />
gestures that even a change of the<lb />
face is enough to invoke laughter.<lb />
So it's actually a bonus.<lb />
Consider it a major victory<lb />
for the authors of the Curious<lb />
George books (H.A. and Margaret<lb />
Ray) because children who flock<lb />
to see this movie will squeal<lb />
with delight at the books, and<lb />
they will be introduced to<lb />
something that previous genera-<lb />
tions loved as children and con-<lb />
tinue to love as adults. For that,<lb />
the movie has succeeded. It's so<lb />
humorous and light-hearted that<lb />
you have to leave the theater with<lb />
a smile.<lb />

Dance, Dance: Not just kid's game<lb />
The guilty pleasure of<lb />
guilty pleasures<lb />
SCOTTY WILLIAMS<lb />
SENIOR WRITER<lb />
I'll admit it. I'm big enough<lb />
to come out and say it. I've<lb />
held it in for so long. In social<lb />
situations, I know that I have<lb />
shunned it and ridiculed it and<lb />
put it down, but in private, I<lb />
embrace it. Here it comes.<lb />
I am addicted to Dance,<lb />
Dance Revolution.<lb />
Since it came on the scene<lb />
in 1998 in Japan, DDR as people<lb />
call it, has become infectious.<lb />
All over the nation, people<lb />
stay In their houses and step to<lb />
the arrows, some for exercise<lb />
and some for the sheer fun<lb />
of it. To be such a great party<lb />
game, most parties would break<lb />
up when someone showed<lb />
up with a dance pad because<lb />
of the weird social wall that<lb />
has come up around it. Being<lb />
cool is not mentioned in the<lb />
same sentence as Dance, Dance<lb />
Revolution. Perhaps this little<lb />
article will shed some light<lb />
on it and change a few minds.<lb />
For those of you with no<lb />
DDR enthusiast friends, the<lb />
game is simple. Using a dance<lb />
pad on the floor, you step to<lb />
the arrows as they appear on<lb />
the screen, usually following<lb />
the beat of a chosen song. You<lb />
get points for making it at the<lb />
right times, being on beat and<lb />
doing it consecutively. Doing it<lb />
right on high levels can make<lb />
you break a decent sweat. To be<lb />
perfectly honest, it can be quite<lb />
aerobic. Many games in the<lb />
DDR franchise include a work-<lb />
out mode that keeps track of<lb />
time spent and calories burned.<lb />
People who play it on a constant<lb />
basis have lost weight.<lb />
One knock on DDR is that<lb />
the music is a catalog list of<lb />
The Elected: 'Sun, Sun, Sun'<lb />
Dance, Dance Revolution started as an arcade game, but it can<lb />
now be found in homes across the country on game systems.<lb />
'Salute Your Shorts'<lb />
camper offers impressive<lb />
solo project<lb />
house bands and techno music.<lb />
You'll see some cover songs (my<lb />
game actually has a cover of the<lb />
Doobie Brothers' "Long Train<lb />
Running"), but for the most<lb />
part, it's stuff that you have to<lb />
get used to because you might<lb />
not like it in the beginning. In<lb />
the end, it grows on you.<lb />
DDR, in general, grows on<lb />
you because its appeal is mini-<lb />
mal right off the bat. It's not<lb />
something you see and say, "I<lb />
have to do that<lb />
It's the kind of game every-<lb />
one insults until they see<lb />
someone dancing, then they<lb />
have to do it once the song is<lb />
over. Before long, everyone<lb />
loves it.<lb />
I know this because I got the<lb />
fever myself. I watched a room-<lb />
mate do it and then I had to do<lb />
it, and after investing around<lb />
$70 for the game and the dance<lb />
pad, it became an obsession. It's<lb />
not the kind of game you pick<lb />
up and do a couple of songs and<lb />
then leave alone. You stay on<lb />
that pad for hours as a time and<lb />
can't stop until you're dripping<lb />
with sweat and your feet hurt<lb />
too much.<lb />
So if you'd like to get re-<lb />
acquainted with artists Dirty<lb />
Vegas or the Crystal Method,<lb />
you're in luck. If you want to<lb />
get some exercise, buy the pad<lb />
and step like you mean it. Most<lb />
importantly, don't worry if<lb />
someone else makes fun of you,<lb />
because it's actually a lot more<lb />
fun than they recognized they<lb />
were to watch you do it, they'd<lb />
catch the fever too.<lb />

Blake Soper. You may remember<lb />
that the second season of the<lb />
show revolved around his char-<lb />
acter, Ronnie Pinsky.<lb />
Now, almost 15 years later,<lb />
Sennett has come a long way<lb />
since Camp Anawanna.<lb />
While Sennett plays guitar<lb />
for and occasionally sings in<lb />
Rilo Kiley, vocalist Jenny Lewis is<lb />
more often credited as the focal<lb />
point of the group, but this year<lb />
both have released their own<lb />
solo projects. Lewis teamed up<lb />
with the Watson Twins for her<lb />
new album Rabbit Fur Coat and<lb />
Sennett is trying his hand at<lb />
fronting a band of his own under<lb />
the moniker The Elected.<lb />
Sun, S'un, Sun, The Elected's<lb />
new album, is a great showcase<lb />
of Sennett's songwriting ability.<lb />
He pushes his music in a more<lb />
traditional singersongwriter<lb />
fashion, and the result is a fan-<lb />
tastic, addicting album.<lb />
If I had to compare this album<lb />
to something, I'd say it most<lb />
closely resembles Bright Eyes' I'm<lb />

MARK ROMANO<lb />
STAFF WRITER<lb />
Giving Mellowdrone's<lb />
upcoming debut record, Box,<lb />
a listen, I was first dizzied by<lb />
ambient synthesizers and heavily<lb />
reverberating drums on the first<lb />
track, "C'mon Try A Little Bit<lb />
which was only setting the stage<lb />
for the journey of music that lay<lb />
ahead. The band can effortlessly<lb />
switch from spacey jams to indus-<lb />
trial dance music without losing<lb />
any momentum.<lb />
The second track, "Oh My<lb />
contrasts with the opener with a<lb />
catchy dance beat and lame key-<lb />
board. The band has a generally<lb />
catchy sound, but it is sarcastic<lb />
in a way. Dark and cynical lyrics<lb />
brew beneath the polished sur-<lb />
face to add a bit of dark humor<lb />
to the music. Most of the songs<lb />
aren't very original in arrange-<lb />
ment. Lead singer and songwriter<lb />
Jonathan Bates intentionally used<lb />
common chord progressions as a<lb />
base, but makes up for it by creat-<lb />
ing an incredible mix of instru-<lb />
ments and sounds. It's one of<lb />
those albums that has too much<lb />
to absorb at once. The music takes<lb />
a while to grow on you, but it<lb />
is worth it because there are so<lb />
many nuances and layers - every<lb />
time you listen, you hear some-<lb />
thing you didn't notice before.<lb />
Masterful stereo producing<lb />
makes the album a joy to listen<lb />
to with headphones. The album<lb />
was produced by Tony Berg, who<lb />
has also worked with the likes of<lb />
Beck and X.<lb />
The album has a definite<lb />
consistency, but has more mood<lb />
swings than a menstrual princess.<lb />
From the punch-drunk lovesick<lb />
sing along, "Fk It Man" to a<lb />
suicide of "Limb From Limb<lb />
the band manages to keep an<lb />
original and steady sound while<lb />
exploring different parts of the<lb />
musical spectrum.<lb />
Mellowdrone has recently<lb />
toured with a former member<lb />
of The Smiths, The Killers (who<lb />
they seem to emulate at times,<lb />
but surpass in talent), Phantom<lb />
Planet and Secret Machines. You<lb />
can get a preview of Box (to be<lb />
released March 7) on the band's<lb />
Web site, mellowdrone.com, and<lb />
on myspace.commellowdrone<lb />
(add them as a friend while<lb />
you're at it).<lb />
Other highlights of the album<lb />
include "And Repeat which is a<lb />
mockery of formulaic music<lb />
production, complete with hand<lb />
claps, a recycled chord progres-<lb />
sion and fantastic vocal harmo-<lb />
nies. "Amazing" takes the soul<lb />
of underground 1960s rock and<lb />
smelts it with modern technolo-<lb />
gies and studio tricks.<lb />
On the surface, a lot of the<lb />
album tracks are similar, making<lb />
it a good album to pop in for a few<lb />
tracks, but as mentioned before,<lb />
the intense layering of the pro-<lb />
duction sets each song apart from<lb />
the others for a dedicated fan.<lb />

'One Tree Hill: Volume 2' .<lb />
CD proves it's more than<lb />
a TV show soundtrack<lb />
AARON BORREQO<lb />
STAFF WRITER<lb />
HiL-i-<lb />
Hello, one and all. It is time to<lb />
review another album. However,<lb />
before 1 begin to review this<lb />
album, One Tree Hill: Volume 2, I<lb />
will briefly touch up on a subject<lb />
I not only feel strongly about,<lb />
but I also hope everyone read-<lb />
ing this pays serious attention to.<lb />
This topic is<lb />
breast cancer and<lb />
it affects too many<lb />
women, and<lb />
men<lb />
for that<lb />
matter.<lb />
This ties<lb />
into the<lb />
album and<lb />
the show<lb />
in a very<lb />
unique way.<lb />
It is very posi<lb />
tive of the<lb />
networks for<lb />
doing such 1<lb />
acts, even if it is to<lb />
appeal to younger view-<lb />
ers in order to get ratings.<lb />
On "One Tree Hill a mother<lb />
and a daughter character reunited<lb />
after the mother revealed that<lb />
she was battling breast cancer.<lb />
In the show's storyline, these<lb />
two women began working<lb />
on a compilation CD to ben-<lb />
efit the National Breast Cancer<lb />
Foundation Inc. (NBCF). This<lb />
album was to be called Friends<lb />
with Benefit.<lb />
It's such a rare case that a<lb />
fictitious album actually became<lb />
a reality, all with the intent to<lb />
educate young viewers about<lb />
early detection and benefit the<lb />
NBCF. The NBCF is a nonprofit,<lb />
charitable foundation that pro-<lb />
vides breast cancer education<lb />
and funding for mammograms<lb />
for women.<lb />
Nationalbreastcancer.org is<lb />
a Web site where you can find<lb />
out more about this foundation.<lb />
Advise the women in our life to<lb />
get a mammogram around age<lb />
35, because this is a detectable<lb />
disease and can be dealt with<lb />
accordingly. With that being<lb />
said, let us take a gander at the<lb />
album itself.<lb />
This album boasts tracks<lb />
from bands such as Audioslave,<lb />
Nada Surf, Gavin DeGraw, Citi-<lb />
zen Cope, Fall Out Boy and<lb />
Jimmy Eat World among others.<lb />
The album has a song called<lb />
"The Mixed Tape" by Jack's Man-<lb />
nequin. I enjoyed everything<lb />
about this song. This is to be<lb />
the first song and video off this<lb />
soundtrack.<lb />
Audioslave is normally a safe<lb />
bet to produce quality music, and<lb />
their song "Be Yourself" doesn't<lb />
disappoint. The majority of the<lb />
songs posses a certain aura of<lb />
made-for-TV sound,<lb />
but oddly<lb />
enough, I still<lb />
found<lb />
myself<lb />
wanting<lb />
to listen to<lb />
these songs.<lb />
I a m<lb />
normally<lb />
not one to<lb />
I like main<lb />
stream,<lb />
pop-laced or<lb />
 made-for-TV<lb />
songs, but these<lb />
are quite differ-<lb />
ent in that they are<lb />
written so well and<lb />
the music isn't disposable.<lb />
The songs can be melancholy,<lb />
but normally pick up during<lb />
parts of the song or completely<lb />
change the tempo after the<lb />
beginning of the track.<lb />
The overall feel of the album<lb />
is very peaceful and easy to listen<lb />
to. The songs are very unique<lb />
in their fluidity and flow into<lb />
the album's tone. I was very<lb />
impressed with the underlying<lb />
message trying to appeal to<lb />
younger people.<lb />
In particular, females are<lb />
the show's target audience, but<lb />
don't let the message of early<lb />
breast cancer detection fall upon<lb />
deaf ears.<lb />
In summation: the album<lb />
gets a grade of A for easy lis-<lb />
tening, great bands and great<lb />
writing in the songs themselves.<lb />
The show is about to start selling<lb />
T-shirts of this album to further<lb />
benefit NBCF. Enjoy, to all who<lb />
venture to listen or watch the<lb />
show. Peace out and as always,<lb />
be good to each other.<lb />

Wide Awake, It's Morning, released<lb />
early in 2005. It is the perfect music<lb />
to wake up to and start your day off<lb />
with, and the tracks flow in and out<lb />
seamlessly and cohesively to bring<lb />
together an album you won't want<lb />
to turn off.<lb />
Sun, Sun, Sun has all the mak-<lb />
ings of a great folk-rock album:<lb />
great rhythm guitar, infectious<lb />
melodies, vibrant vocals and catchy<lb />
lyrics that maintain an introspec-<lb />
tive, personal feel without overdo-<lb />
ing it.<lb />
Vocally, Sennett's deep whis-<lb />
per-to-falsetto delivery and strong<lb />
back-up harmonies suit the music<lb />
he plays perfectly and if you're<lb />
a fan of any Rilo Kiley albums,<lb />
this shouldn't be too much of<lb />
a departure from his familiar<lb />
style (think Rilo tracks like "Rip-<lb />
chord "Small Figures in a Vast<lb />
Expanse" and "Rest of My Life<lb />
where Sennett takes the mic).<lb />
The album flows so perfectly<lb />
that I recommend starting off lis-<lb />
tening to the entire album all the<lb />
way through. If I had to choose,<lb />
though, I'd say my favorite track<lb />
is the intimate song "It Was Love<lb />
which features Jenny Lewis on<lb />
back-up vocals. Other tracks to<lb />
look out for include the title track<lb />
"Sun, Sun, Sun" and "Fireflies in a<lb />
Steel Mill<lb />
Fortunately, the album is<lb />
not going unnoticed. It reached<lb />
number 27 on the College Musk<lb />
Journal's Radio 200 chart in its<lb />
first week, making it the third<lb />
highesi debut for that week, not<lb />
to mention that Jenny Lewis'<lb />
album Rabbit Fur Coat, released the<lb />
same week was almost 100 spots<lb />
behind it, debuting at number 117.<lb />
Overall, Sun, Sun, Sun gets a<lb />
B from me. Right now, it is one<lb />
of my favorite releases of the year<lb />
and by far the most unexpectedly<lb />
pleasant album I've come across.<lb />
I wouldn't be surprised to see it<lb />
make a few end-of-year charts, but<lb />
we have a while to go and a lot<lb />
more to listen to until then.<lb />

of familiar chord progressions<lb />

Pirates to battle Couaars this weekend<lb />
ECU looks to take<lb />
second series of the<lb />
season<lb />
BRENT WYNNE<lb />
SENIOR WRITER<lb />
Fresh off a series win over<lb />
Maryland that featured a game<lb />
winning squeeze play in game<lb />
three from the Pirates, ECU<lb />
returns to action this weekend<lb />
to face the College of Charleston<lb />
in a three game set.<lb />
The Cougars swept their<lb />
opening series against High<lb />
Point last weekend, so the<lb />
Diamond Bucs will have an<lb />
opportunity to spoil their oppo-<lb />
nent's unblemished record.<lb />
It's hard to match the success<lb />
Charleston has had over the past<lb />
couple of seasons. Not only have<lb />
the Cougars won back-to-back<lb />
Southern Conference champion-<lb />
ships, they have also won more<lb />
games (95) over the past two<lb />
seasons than any other team in<lb />
conference history.<lb />
And wouldn't you guess,<lb />
they're the preseason favorite to<lb />
win the conference again.<lb />
While all may seem great on<lb />
the home front down in South<lb />
Carolina, Head Coach John<lb />
Pawlowski, now entering his<lb />
seventh season as the Cougars'<lb />
head man, knows that he has<lb />
some major holes to fill from last<lb />
year's squad.<lb />
"Someone asked me the other<lb />
day what my biggest concerns<lb />
were Pawlowski said in an inter-<lb />
view with CofCSports.com.<lb />
"I said, 'I only have seven<lb />
We lost our Friday night starter,<lb />
our Saturday starter, our Sunday<lb />
starter, our closer, our leadoff<lb />
hitter, three-hole hitter and four-<lb />
hole hitter. Other than that, I<lb />
have no concerns<lb />
College of Charleston's main<lb />
concern heading into the 2006<lb />
campaign was pitching. After<lb />
losing studs Ryan Edell, Reid<lb />
Price, Danny Gemma and Brett<lb />
Harker, who combined for 26<lb />
victories and 16 saves last season,<lb />
Pawlowski and the rest of his<lb />
coaches must now piece together<lb />
a new staff and hope for the<lb />
best.<lb />
This past weekend against<lb />
High Point, the Cougars got a first<lb />
s<lb />
Cet<lb />
the<lb />
A0-0<lb />
The Pirates will play their second home series of the year against the College of Charleston starting Friday at 3 p.m. at Clark-Leclair Stadium.<lb />
hand look at how the new staff is<lb />
shaping up.<lb />
After putting up an 8-1 record<lb />
with an 0.93 ERA and receiving<lb />
All-American honors in 2005,<lb />
junior college transfer Graham<lb />
Godfrey started his first game at<lb />
the division one level last Friday<lb />
against the Panthers. He did not<lb />
disappoint, going six innings,<lb />
while giving up three earned<lb />
runs and striking out nine.<lb />
Game two starter Nick<lb />
Chigges got knocked around<lb />
for 4.2 innings and got a no-<lb />
decision. Chigges was 4-1 with<lb />
a 5.20 ERA last season, but<lb />
those numbers mostly came as<lb />
bullpen work. Oklahoma State<lb />
transfer Quinn Monsma came<lb />
on in relief of Chigges and<lb />
picked up the win.<lb />
The best performance from a<lb />
Cougar hurler came from game<lb />
three starter Wes Braden. The<lb />
right-hander scattered five hits<lb />
and two earned runs over seven<lb />
solid innings of work to pick up<lb />
his first win of the season.<lb />
Relievers Josh McLaughlin,<lb />
Jeff Beliveau, Danny Meszaros<lb />
and Tim McCarty combined for<lb />
6.1 scoreless innings of relief for<lb />
the Cougars over the course of<lb />
the weekend series. The quartet<lb />
only surrendered four hits and<lb />
a single walk while striking out<lb />
nine.<lb />
Even though College of<lb />
Charleston lost key players from<lb />
last season's offense that helped<lb />
contribute to the 11 major offen-<lb />
sive school records set by the club,<lb />
the Cougars still have plenty of<lb />
options throughout their lineup<lb />
for the 2006 year.<lb />
All American Chris Campbell<lb />
and all-SoCon picks Phillip Coker<lb />
and Jess Easterling all return this<lb />
season.<lb />
Campbell hit .379 with 15<lb />
home runs and 87 RBI a year ago,<lb />
and he picked up right where he<lb />
left off, batting .462 this past<lb />
weekend against High Point with<lb />
six RBI and four runs scored.<lb />
 Coker hit .429 against the<lb />
Panthers in three games, scoring<lb />
five times and driving in two<lb />
while Easterling did some manly<lb />
work at the plate as well, hitting<lb />
a staggering .545 with one home<lb />
run and nine RBI.<lb />
Easterling's slugging percent-<lb />
age was a perfect 1.000.<lb />
Senior South Carolina trans-<lb />
fer Joey Friddle and Miami trans-<lb />
fer Alex Garabedian both had<lb />
stellar series as well, combining<lb />
for 10 hits, five doubles, a home<lb />
run and nine RBIs.<lb />
While High Point may not<lb />
have been the most formidable of<lb />
opponents, it has quickly become<lb />
evident that College of Charles-<lb />
ton does not rebuild.<lb />

OPINION<lb />
ERIC GILMORE<lb />
SENIOR WRITER<lb />
With all of the recent National<lb />
Signing Day hype wetting the<lb />
taste buds of college football fans<lb />
across the nation, basketball took<lb />
a brief backseat. But starting now<lb />
through early April, college bas-<lb />
ketball will be on the main stage<lb />
of sports fans everywhere.<lb />
Unexplainable upsets, bubble<lb />
teams clawing to survive and<lb />
around the clock media coverage<lb />
of Coach K's every thought<lb />
will dominate the head-<lb />
lines for the next two<lb />
months. And outside of<lb />
late fall, isn't March Mad-<lb />
ness the best month of the<lb />
sports calendar?<lb />
Unlike football, basketball<lb />
can consume fans for the entire<lb />
week. Instead of pre-game shows<lb />
leading to just one day of cover-<lb />
age, the Big Mondays and Throw-<lb />
down Thursdays don superb<lb />
match-ups consistently. Three,<lb />
maybe four quality games a night<lb />
hold hardcore fans hostage from<lb />
their wives.<lb />
So now into the heart of<lb />
February and the stretch run<lb />
of conference play, contenders<lb />
have separated themselves from<lb />
preseason pretenders. Teams<lb />
like Wake Forest have gone from<lb />
a Final Four threat to a squad<lb />
destined for the ACC cellar. To<lb />
the contrary, the University of<lb />
Florida has answered critics with<lb />
an unexpected resurgence.<lb />
Even though the cream has<lb />
risen to the top, the crystal ball<lb />
remains a bit hazy. For those who<lb />
like to fill out their brackets a<lb />
little early, here's four teams<lb />
that you can pencil (not pen)<lb />
in for the Final Four.<lb />
Texas Long horns<lb />
(22-3.10-1 Big 12)<lb />
Premier Point Guard:<lb />
Daniel Gibson<lb />
Veteran Leader:<lb />
P.J. Tucker<lb />
NBA Prospect:<lb />
LaMarcus Aldridge<lb />
Role Player:<lb />
Brad Buckman<lb />
Final Four lock:<lb />
The Longhorns were ranked<lb />
the Preseason's No. 3 team for<lb />
a reason - sheer talent. But the<lb />
Longhorns have yet to capital-<lb />
ize on the hype and assume the<lb />
top ranking. For that reason<lb />
alone, Texas remains Final Four<lb />
worthy.<lb />
Consider the NBA talent<lb />
compiled in Austin. The Long-<lb />
horns tout a potential No. 1 pick<lb />
in LaMarcus Aldridge and point<lb />
guard Daniel Gibson has made<lb />
Austin natives forget about T.J.<lb />
Ford. Add the increased matu-<lb />
rity level of former Enloe High<lb />
School standout P.J. Tucker, and<lb />
the team seems destined for Final<lb />
Four success.<lb />
Tucker (16.6 ppg, 9.3 rpg)<lb />
and Aldridge's (16.2 ppg, 9.3 rpg)<lb />
statistics are eerily similar despite<lb />
the five-inch differential between<lb />
the teammates. Eight Longhorns<lb />
are averaging over 15 minutes a<lb />
game, including two seniors who<lb />
were part of the 2003 team that<lb />
advanced to the Final Four.<lb />
No way:<lb />
The national media hasn't<lb />
recovered from the Longhorns'<lb />
back-to-back home embarrass-<lb />
ments during non-conference<lb />
play. A damaging 31-point loss<lb />
to Duke on Dec. 10 coupled with<lb />
a 17-point hiccup to Tennessee<lb />
severely dented the lore sur-<lb />
rounding Rick Barnes's squad.<lb />
' Excessive turnovers remain<lb />
a problem for the Longhorns,<lb />
who commit 14.4 per game. Also,<lb />
Tucker and Aldridge both will<lb />
have to veer from foul trouble.<lb />
The junior and sophomore have<lb />
been whistled for four or more<lb />
fouls in eight contests including<lb />
two of the team's three losses<lb />
respectively.<lb />
But the biggest knock on<lb />
the Longhorns are the lack of<lb />
close games. The nation's leader<lb />
in scoring margin has only two<lb />
games within a margin of-eight<lb />
points. Fortunately for Texas<lb />
fans, the Longhorns inched out<lb />
both games.<lb />
Memphis Tigers<lb />
(23-2. 9-0 C-USA)<lb />
Premier Point Guard:<lb />
Darius Washington, Jr.<lb />

Memphis has won 12 consec-<lb />

21. The only defeats have been to<lb />
soon-to-be No. 1 Duke and No.<lb />
6 Texas while wins over ranked<lb />
teams like UCLA, Gonzaga and<lb />
Tennessee shower the resume.<lb />
Who can argue with results?<lb />
The Tigers are long, athletic<lb />
and have yet to wilt to inferior<lb />
teams down the stretch. Despite<lb />
being in a nationally weak con-<lb />
ference, Memphis has beaten<lb />
every conference opponent, for<lb />
the exception of one, by a double-<lb />
digit margin.<lb />
The team has few flaws offen-<lb />
sively. John Calipari's squad<lb />
torches the nets for 83.3 points<lb />
per game, which ranks fifth<lb />
nationally. Rodney Carney (18.0<lb />
ppg) is arguably the most athletic<lb />
player in the nation and a lock<lb />
for a 2006 Lottery Pick. Darius<lb />
Washington, Jr who suffered<lb />
an off-season of full of ridicule<lb />
when he missed a foul shot that<lb />
would have secured an NCAA<lb />
Tournament invite, has avoided<lb />
a sophomore slump.<lb />
Calipari is a veteran coach<lb />
with a 1996 Final Four trip. The<lb />
ex-NBA coach is an excellent<lb />
recruiter, but at Memphis has<lb />
had trouble keeping his talent in<lb />
order. But this year he appears to<lb />
head a team with chemistry to<lb />
back up the potential.<lb />

The Canadian women have a combined 36 goals thus far.<lb />

There's no apologizing in<lb />
women's hockey.<lb />
Not when it really matters.<lb />
Not even when it's somewhat<lb />

Blame the Canadians for<lb />
that, if you must. They're<lb />

Yes it is, and yes it does.<lb />
Unfortunately, it only mat-<lb />

They will play in the gold<lb />
medal game Monday because<lb />
they always play in the gold<lb />
medal game. They beat each<lb />
other, but no one ever beats<lb />
them.<lb />
That's ever as in it has<lb />
never, ever, happened in 16<lb />

Wake Forest struggling to<lb />
figure out what's wrong<lb />
(AP)  Things sure were a lot<lb />
more fun forjustin Gray and Eric<lb />
Williams last year or any year, for<lb />
that matter.<lb />
The inside-outside tandem<lb />
from Skip Prosser's first recruit-<lb />
ing class thrived from the start at<lb />
Wake Forest. As freshmen, they<lb />
helped the Demon Deacons win<lb />
an Atlantic Coast Conference<lb />
regular-season title. Two years<lb />
later, they joined Ail-American<lb />
point guard Chris Paul to lead<lb />
Wake Forest to the program's first<lb />
No. 1 ranking.<lb />
As seniors this season, Gray<lb />
leads the team and ranks second<lb />
in the league with 19 points<lb />
per game, while Williams is<lb />
averaging almost 16 points and<lb />
nine rebounds. But Wake Forest<lb />
has won just one game in ACC<lb />
play, and a team that's won 20<lb />
games a year in four seasons<lb />
under Prosser is struggling to<lb />
stay eligible for the postseason<lb />
afterthought of the NIT.<lb />
How can a team with two all-<lb />
conference players be in the ACC<lb />
basement? Could the departure<lb />
of Paul to the NBA, where he's<lb />
the runaway favorite for rookie<lb />
of the year, make that much of a<lb />
difference?<lb />
"It's been a different experience,<lb />
I can tell you that Prosser said.<lb />
"The reality is we've been in most<lb />
of these games in the second half,<lb />
but we can't finish them. That's<lb />
very disconcerting, obviously<lb />
Whatever the reason, the<lb />
decline has been sudden and<lb />
steep. Wake Forest (13-12, 1-10<lb />
ACC) started the season ranked<lb />
18th and was picked to finish<lb />
third in the ACC. But since Jan.<lb />
1, the Demon Deacons have won<lb />
just three times. They are in last<lb />
place in the ACC, and headed<lb />
for their worst league season<lb />
since going 3-11 in 1990, which<lb />
also marked their last losing<lb />
season overall.<lb />
Their hopes of reaching a<lb />
sixth straight NCAA tourna-<lb />
ment are all but gone, and in<lb />
the rowdy section of students<lb />
wearing tie-dye yellow-and-<lb />
black T-shirts, there are a grow-<lb />
ing number of no-shows. With<lb />
five games to play - including<lb />
matchups with ranked oppo-<lb />
nents North Carolina, Boston<lb />
College and North Carolina<lb />
State - Wake needs at least two<lb />
wins to finish at least .500.<lb />
As Duke's fans put it during<lb />
Tuesday's 93-70 loss to the Blue<lb />
Devils: "If you're lucky, N-I-TP<lb />
"You know what? The only<lb />
thing we can do is keep fighting<lb />
said senior Trent Strickland, a<lb />
career reserve who has become a<lb />
starter this season. "If we're going<lb />
to go down, we're going down<lb />
with a swing. We're not just<lb />
going to sit there and let people<lb />
just trample on us. We're going to<lb />
get up and go fight back<lb />
Prosser, whose teams have<lb />
won at least 21 games in each of<lb />
the past nine seasons dating back<lb />
to his days at Xavier, has tried<lb />
variety in his search for a fix. He's<lb />
used eight different starting line-<lb />

ups this season, including asking<lb />
three different players to take<lb />
on the point guards duties Paul<lb />
left behind when he departed<lb />
for the NBA after two seasons in<lb />
Winston-Salem.<lb />
Gray refuses to blame the<lb />
loss of Paul, his ex-roommate, for<lb />
Wake Forest's woes.<lb />
"That's what people do, make<lb />
excuses he said. "Nobody in our<lb />
locker room is making excuses at<lb />
all. We're like, 'Yeah, obviously<lb />
he's not here It's on us. It's on<lb />
us to make a play<lb />
Wake Forest has had its<lb />
chances. In January, a rally from<lb />
a 12-point second-half deficit was<lb />
wasted as the Demon Deacons<lb />
blew a five-point lead in the final<lb />
minute of regulation and lost<lb />
74-73 in overtime at Clemson.<lb />
Earlier this month, they lost at<lb />
Virginia 75-73 when J.R. Reyn-<lb />
olds hit a baseline shot with 3.8<lb />
seconds left.<lb />
Mike Gminski, a former Duke<lb />
star who played for 14 seasons<lb />
in the NBA career and is now<lb />
a television analyst, said the<lb />
Demon Deacons had a team in<lb />
the past few seasons that could<lb />
score enough points to overcome<lb />
their problems on defense.<lb />
But this season, after scoring<lb />
85 points a game last year to rank<lb />
second in the ACC, they're scor-<lb />
ing an average of just 74 points to<lb />
rank in the middle of the pack.<lb />
"I think this year people<lb />
looked and saw they have two all-<lb />
league performers back in a down<lb />
league, so even with point guard<lb />
being an issue they should be able<lb />
to compete Gminski said. "And<lb />
frankly, 1 think they have too<lb />
much talent to be 1-10<lb />
Kyle Visser, a 6-11 junior,<lb />
hasn't scored in double-figures<lb />
in 16 of the past 17 games. Chris<lb />
Ellis, a 6-9 senior who is a 3-<lb />
point specialist, is averaging five<lb />
points and has hit double-figures<lb />
just three times. Meanwhile,<lb />
junior walk-on Michael Drum<lb />
and freshmen Kevin Swinton<lb />
and Cameron Stanley are seeing<lb />
significant playing time.<lb />
The season has created plenty<lb />
of frustration for Wake Forest<lb />
fans. Attendance is listed at the<lb />
Joel Coliseum capacity of 14,665<lb />
for each home game, but there<lb />
have been empty seats and scat-<lb />
tered boos at recent games. And<lb />
there is plenty of angst in the for-<lb />
merly full student section, once<lb />
a source of pride for a private<lb />
school with the ACC's smallest<lb />
enrollment of 4,037.<lb />
"I could tell at the beginning<lb />
of the season we weren't going to<lb />
be as good said freshman Mark<lb />
Harbaugh, surrounded by empty<lb />
seats during last weekend's home<lb />
win against Charlotte. "But it<lb />
keeps getting more demoralizing<lb />
and I guess it's like a lost cause for<lb />
most students now. Everyone's<lb />
kind of given up<lb />
Everyone except the Demon<lb />
Deacons. For them, how they<lb />
finish will go a long way toward<lb />
determining what they'll take<lb />
from the season.<lb />
And in Gray's case, a career.<lb />
"I'm not happy about it, but like<lb />
I said, those games are behind us<lb />
now he said. "We're trying to start<lb />
a clean slate and sort of play for us.<lb />
"We don't want to be remem-<lb />
bered by getting blown out or not<lb />
playing with passion or heart. If<lb />
we're going to lose, we want to<lb />
play with heart and some passion<lb />

Calipari revoked slated starter<lb />
Jeremy Hunt from the team<lb />
during the preseason after the<lb />
senior guard was found to be<lb />
involved in an altercation on<lb />
Beale St. To combat the problem,<lb />
backup center Kareem Cooper<lb />
pled guilty on Tuesday to pos-<lb />
session of marijuana. Cooper sat<lb />
through a four-game suspension,<lb />
but scored 13 points and pulled<lb />
down 13 rebounds in a Tuesday<lb />
rout of Southern Miss.<lb />
Off the court problems aside,<lb />
the Tigers need to increase their<lb />
defensive intensity, already relin-<lb />
quishing 68.6 points per game.<lb />
Also, free throw shooting remains<lb />
suspect at a team-combined 68 per-<lb />
cent. Calipari's lack of depth at the<lb />
point also means keeping Wash-<lb />
ington, Jr. from developing foul<lb />
trouble. The Tigers seemed to have<lb />
ironed out the 3-point shooting<lb />
woes that hampered them through-<lb />
out the non-conference play.<lb />
Memphis' glaring weakness is<lb />
youth and inexperience. Starting<lb />
three freshmen, a sophomore and<lb />
a senior keeps experts skeptical<lb />
about a deep tournament run.<lb />
Can Carney's leadership provide<lb />
enough to dodge an upset scare? But<lb />
again, who can argue with results?<lb />

Final Four lock:<lb />
Lorenzo Romar's team still<lb />
wishes that current N.Y. Knick<lb />
Nate Robinson had decided to<lb />
stay in school for his senior<lb />
season. But last year's surprise<lb />
No. 1 seed still has enough talent<lb />
to get where Robinson couldn't<lb />
take them a season ago.<lb />
Despite the Huskies' struggles<lb />
in conference play, Washington<lb />
still boasts one of the top scorers<lb />
in the country in senior guard<lb />
Brandon Roy (19.2 ppg). How-<lb />
ever, Washington remains bal-<lb />
anced using a 10-man rotation,<lb />
all of which average double-digit<lb />
minutes. Washington is 12-0<lb />
when four or more players score<lb />
in double-digits this season.<lb />
The nation's third ranked<lb />
scoring team (83.4 ppg) gives<lb />
slower teams trouble because<lb />
of their willingness to run. The<lb />
Huskies like to expose their oppo-<lb />
nents' lack of depth by getting<lb />
them into foul trouble.<lb />
The Huskies were ranked as<lb />
high as No. 7 after winning their<lb />
first 10 games. After recently<lb />
dropping three straight road<lb />
contests, they quickly bounced<lb />
back with quality wins over USC<lb />
and UCLA. Consider that Wash-<lb />
ington has not lost to a ranked<lb />
opponent this season. They have<lb />
beaten then-No. 6 Gonzaga and<lb />
then-No. 11 and No. 13 UCLA<lb />
for a record of 3-0 against top-25<lb />
opponents. The schedule is light<lb />
down the stretch, which should<lb />
provide some momentum. With a<lb />
string of confidence, the Huskies'<lb />
up-tempo style and depth could<lb />
easily take them to Indianapolis.<lb />
No way:<lb />
Like Memphis, the Huskies<lb />
need to focus on improving on<lb />
the defensive end of the court.<lb />
Romar's club is giving up over<lb />
70 points per contest. In the five<lb />
losses, the Huskies have allowed<lb />
an average of 79.6points per game.<lb />
Washington has also been<lb />
suspect on the road, going only<lb />
2-3 away from home. The Hus-<lb />
kies' first 12 games were inside<lb />
the friendly confines of Bank<lb />
of America Arena. Because of<lb />
the Northwest location, having<lb />
extensive travel time could cause<lb />
jetlag should the team advance<lb />
deep in the tournament.<lb />
The most talented teams<lb />
don't always make it to the Final<lb />
Four. Washington is neither<lb />
the most talented nor even the<lb />
best squad in their conference.<lb />
However, a year removed from<lb />
an Elite Eight trip can't rule the<lb />
Huskies out. They do enough<lb />
necessary tools and players alike<lb />
to bust some brackets. But did the<lb />
Huskies lose too much?<lb />

Final Four lock:<lb />
Boston College has endured<lb />
through a rude awakening in<lb />
their first season in the ACC. But<lb />
Al Skinner and company are prob-<lb />
ably content in dodging the new-<lb />
age Big East. But as rude as some<lb />
ACC guests have been, the Golden<lb />
Eagles are building momentum.<lb />
Boston College are winners<lb />
of four straight, including three<lb />
ACC games to advance a game<lb />
behind second-place N.C. State.<lb />
Despite the record, the Golden<lb />
Eagles play to the level their<lb />
opponents, going 10-4 in single-<lb />
digit margins.<lb />
Craig Smith (16.8 ppg) and<lb />
Jared Dudley (16.7 ppg) combine<lb />
to give opponents' frontcourt<lb />
headaches. Both forwards stand<lb />
at 6-feet-7-inches and pound the<lb />
glass, which often translates to<lb />
zone defenses. Patience is a virtue<lb />
of an Al Skinner coached team. It<lb />
may cause too many close games,<lb />
but it translates to plenty of assists<lb />
and high percentage shots. The<lb />
Golden Eagles rank 10th and 18th<lb />
nationally in each category respec-<lb />
tively. If the other starters find the<lb />
bucket like the two frontcourt<lb />
stars, look out for the ACC rookies.<lb />
No way:<lb />
Unlike Washington, Boston<lb />
College is only 1-4 against ranked<lb />
opponents. Despite playing Duke<lb />
tough at home, the Golden Eagles<lb />
have only beaten then-No. 25<lb />
UNC. Losses to Maryland, Michi-<lb />
gan St. and Georgia Tech litter<lb />
the schedule and have kept the<lb />
team from a marquee win.<lb />
Louis Hinnant, a sporadic<lb />
point guard needs to stay within<lb />
Skinner's system. Because the<lb />
opponents figure in on both<lb />
Smith and Dudley, Hinnant and<lb />
Tyrese Rice will be forced to drain<lb />
perimeter shots. Because Skinner<lb />
prefers half-court games, free<lb />
throws loom large in late-game<lb />
situations. The team shoots a<lb />
combined 68 percent, while super-<lb />
stars Smith and Dudley shoot 66<lb />
and 70 percent respectively.<lb />
The team is smart with the<lb />
ball, but is it athletic enough to<lb />
run with higher-paced teams?<lb />
The jury is still out, but a couple<lb />
of perimeter shots could quickly<lb />
turn the Golden Eagles into con-<lb />
tenders. Will the shots fall all the<lb />
way to Indianapolis?<lb />

Don't ask anyone on the Ital-<lb />
ian team, because they're not<lb />
likely to have an answer. They<lb />
may not even know each other's<lb />
names.<lb />
The team was put together<lb />
two weeks before the Olympics<lb />
because Italy is the host country,<lb />
and it seemed like a nice gesture<lb />
to fill out the field. It didn't seem<lb />
so nice when the Italian women<lb />
were beaten 16-0 by Canada and<lb />
11-0 by Sweden only to rebound<lb />
and score a goal in their final 5-1<lb />
loss to Russia.<lb />
That's OK because Switzer-<lb />
land scored only one goal, too,<lb />
and Germany managed only two.<lb />
The fastest game on ice can<lb />
seem awfully slow when anyone<lb />
other than the world's two pow-<lb />
erhouses are playing. Even when<lb />
they are, the contests sometimes<lb />
disintegrate into special team<lb />
specials when overeager referees<lb />
blow the whistle for illegal body<lb />
checking anytime two players get<lb />
near one another.<lb />
The big celebration at the<lb />
hockey arena the other night<lb />
came when someone finally<lb />
scored a fluke goal on the Cana-<lb />
dians. The U.S. team had a big<lb />
scare, winning only by four goals<lb />
over Finland.<lb />
The most intrigue at wom-<lb />
en's hockey so far has come<lb />
off the ice, where U.S. coach<lb />
Ben Smith and the aging star<lb />
he dumped before the games,<lb />
Cammi Granato, aren't speaking<lb />
to each other. That could cause<lb />
problems because Granato is now<lb />
an analyst for NBC, but the net-<lb />
work decided to keep her in the<lb />
studio far away from the rink.<lb />
Good thing, because fighting<lb />
isn't allowed in theOlympicGames.<lb />
The domination by the Amer-<lb />
ican and Canadian teams since<lb />
women's hockey was admitted<lb />
to the Olympics eight years ago<lb />
in Nagano isn't all that surpris-<lb />
ing. Both have feeder systems<lb />
through junior hockey, and col-<lb />
leges with established programs<lb />
to send players through.<lb />
Other countries have been<lb />
reluctant to fully embrace the<lb />
idea of women playing hockey,<lb />
though there are some signs<lb />
that is finally changing. There<lb />
are more foreign players now at<lb />
American colleges, and they are<lb />
almost always the stars of their<lb />
national teams.<lb />
"Our sport hasn't always<lb />
been accepted by every nation<lb />
Canada coach Melody Davidson<lb />
said.<lb />
Those that are accepting it<lb />
don't seem to be catching up.<lb />
While other countries are field-<lb />
ing better teams than the ragtag<lb />
outfits that skated in Nagano, the<lb />
Canadians and Americans are<lb />
getting better at a faster pace.<lb />
In Canada, it would be like<lb />
Midgets playing against Pee Wee<lb />
league. The Canadian women<lb />
play at a level of 16 to-17-year-old<lb />
boys, while the other countries<lb />
are probably two age groups<lb />
below that.<lb />
"It is still a long way to go to<lb />
catch up to the United States and<lb />
Canada said Finnish defense-<lb />
man (woman, person?) Emma<lb />
Laaksonen. "I don't know if (it<lb />
can be done)<lb />
So far, they haven't come<lb />
close. The United States and<lb />
Canada outscored opponents<lb />
by a combined 54-4 in the pre-<lb />
liminary rounds, and they're not<lb />
expected to get much of a test in<lb />
Friday's semifinals. Both teams<lb />
are whopping favorites to win by<lb />
five or six goals against Sweden<lb />
and Finland before meeting in<lb />
their inevitable gold medal final.<lb />
Olympic officials canned<lb />
softball from the games for much<lb />
the same reason, largely the<lb />
American dominance. That isn't<lb />
likely to happen to women's<lb />
hockey because it fills 160 spots<lb />
and helps level the gender imbal-<lb />
ance in the Winter Games.<lb />
It looks good to have more<lb />
women in the Olympics, but<lb />
what really is the point if they<lb />
can't compete? Does a 16-0<lb />
hockey blowout really add to the<lb />
Olympic experience?<lb />
These are supposed to be the<lb />
best athletes in the world. Some<lb />
of them look like they're not even<lb />
the best on their block.<lb />
Here's a suggestion: Reduce<lb />
the field to four teams for the<lb />
2010 games in Vancouver and<lb />
let them play each other several<lb />
times.<lb />
The marginal teams will get<lb />
better, fans will get to see more of<lb />
the United States against Canada,<lb />
and almost everyone will go<lb />
home with a medal.<lb />
Better yet, the Canadians<lb />
will have nothing to apologize<lb />
about.<lb />
