CLAIRE MURPHY<lb />
ASSISTANT NEWS EDITOR<lb />
Richard Tichich interviewed<lb />
ECU metal design professor and<lb />
author of The Art of Enameling<lb />
Linda Darty last Thursday in<lb />
Speight Auditorium.<lb />
Darty, a Florida native, got<lb />
her master's degree at ECU in fine<lb />
arts in 1989. She was a straight-<lb />
A high school student and had<lb />
never taken an art class before<lb />

Yearbook to make return<lb />
CLAYTON BAUMAN<lb />
STAFF WRITER <lb />
The pages of the student<lb />
yearbook, The Buccaneer, are<lb />
making a comeback in fall<lb />
2006 after well over a decade<lb />
of absence.<lb />
This past week, graduating<lb />
seniors were offered a chance<lb />
to have their photograph taken<lb />
for the yearbook at Mendenhall<lb />
and the Ledonia Wright Cul-<lb />
tural Center on campus.<lb />
The yearbook itself, subti-<lb />
tled, "A Rediscovered Treasure<lb />
seeks to provide students with<lb />
features that stretch from the<lb />
athletic side of ECU to featured<lb />
articles that list the top 10 ways<lb />
the Internet distracts college<lb />
students.<lb />
Chancellor Steve Mallard<lb />
was on hand as the first featured<lb />
time slot at the picture taking<lb />
session at Mendenhall.<lb />
"Many of us delight in<lb />
browsing through our old year-<lb />
books to see how young we once<lb />
were and how much everyone<lb />
else has changed. 1 am delighted<lb />
that ECU alumni will have that<lb />
opportunity, and I look forward<lb />
to perusing the revived Bucca-<lb />
neer said Ballard.<lb />
"So far so good said Gen-<lb />
evia Hill, assistant director of<lb />
Student EngagementMedia, on<lb />
the success of student picture<lb />
taking last Thursday.<lb />
"I would just encourage<lb />
everyone to take part in this<lb />
rediscovered treasure Hill said.<lb />
Also featured in the year-<lb />
book will be student organi-<lb />
zations. These organizations<lb />
range from student clubs to<lb />
fraternities and sororities.<lb />
Pending a reservation, pho-<lb />
tographs for groups will be<lb />
taking place through the first<lb />
week of April.<lb />
Students who have pic-<lb />
tures that they think would<lb />
be good material for the year-<lb />
book can submit them to<lb />
photos@buccaneer.ecu.edu.<lb />
The best photos will be featured<lb />
in the book.<lb />

DARTY<lb />
studies, where she received her<lb />
Bachelor of Arts in ceramics and<lb />
art education.<lb />
Linda Darty went to the Uni-<lb />
versity of Florida intending to get<lb />
a degree in psychology. After her<lb />
freshman year, she studied abroad<lb />
in Florence, Italy for six months,<lb />
which changed her life. She came<lb />
back to Florida and changed her<lb />
major to art. The trip to Italy was<lb />
her first time away from home,<lb />
first time in a plane and her first<lb />
time seeing snow. While in Flor-<lb />
ence, she only had class four days<lb />
a week, which gave her time to<lb />
travel the country on her own.<lb />
"Going to school in Italy was<lb />
one of my smartest decisions<lb />
Darty said during the interview<lb />
with Tichich. She highly recom-<lb />
mends international studies.<lb />
After graduating from the<lb />
University of Florida with degrees<lb />
in ceramics and art education,<lb />
she became a high school art<lb />
teacher in Florida for two years.<lb />
She did not want the job at first;<lb />
but soon fell in love with it.<lb />
"I am a teacher first and an<lb />
artist second said Darty.<lb />
During the summers when she<lb />
was not teaching, she went to Pen-<lb />
land School of Crafts in the moun-<lb />
tains of North Carolina to work on<lb />
her art. She earned a scholarship<lb />
there, paying her $50 a week to<lb />
wash dishes. After two summers<lb />
at Penland, she was offered a job, a<lb />
house, meals, a charge card and her<lb />
own studio there. It was a difficult<lb />
decision to leave the high school<lb />
where she was teaching, but she<lb />
opted Penland's offer as the best<lb />
decision.<lb />
Darty stayed at Penland for<lb />
seven years. It was at this time<lb />
that she changed her focus to<lb />
metals and enameling.<lb />
By definition, enameling is a<lb />
usually opaque, protective or dec-<lb />
orative coating baked on metal,<lb />
glass or ceramic ware that dries to<lb />
a glossy finish. It is mainly used<lb />
in powdered form, being fired in<lb />
a kiln at about 1,500 degrees. It<lb />
is very important to follow safety<lb />
precautions. Annealing kilns<lb />
used by bead makers are also<lb />
good for enameling.<lb />
Later in life, Linda Darty<lb />
married a man who was teach-<lb />
ing in Greenville and came here<lb />
for graduate school to get her<lb />
master's in metals.<lb />
Darty taught classes at the<lb />
Greenville Museum of Art to<lb />
several groups including chil-<lb />
dren, adults, the blind and even<lb />
prisoners.<lb />
The prisoners were not very<lb />
motivated, so Darty inspired<lb />
them to make something for<lb />
people in worse situations. They<lb />
ended up making presents for<lb />
the children in the Burn Unit<lb />
at the hospital and were really<lb />
excited by it.<lb />
Darty said, "It's more exciting<lb />
to see a student's finished work<lb />
than it is to see my own finished<lb />
work. That is how I knew 1 was<lb />
teacher more than a maker<lb />
Most of her work is dedicated<lb />
to people in her life because<lb />
when she creates something, it<lb />
is a reflection of different times<lb />
in her life.<lb />
"When I work, 1 make it kind<lb />
of like a journal Darty said.<lb />
In the future, Linda Darty<lb />
will be traveling to Nova Scotia,<lb />
where she has the opportunity to<lb />
travel while "riding the wave of<lb />
my book she said.<lb />
Darty is a very inspiring<lb />
expert in her field and is recog-<lb />
nized as such by most people<lb />
who have had the experience of<lb />
working with her.<lb />

SGA candidates respond to<lb />
questions on a few key issues<lb />
Candidates met at<lb />
Mendenhall for open<lb />
debate<lb />
CLAYTON BAUMAN<lb />
STAFF WRITER<lb />
The annual Student Govern-<lb />
ment Association election debate<lb />
took place this past Monday at<lb />
Mendenhall Student Center.<lb />
The debate was comprised of<lb />
a series of questions in a variety<lb />
of different formats issued to<lb />
hopeful ticket-one and -two<lb />
candidates.<lb />
The format consisted of a pre-<lb />
prepared question, followed by a<lb />
random question that each can-<lb />
didate drew from an envelope.<lb />
Finally, the audience provided<lb />
anonymous questions for the<lb />
candidates.<lb />
With two minutes provided<lb />
to speak about each of the<lb />
respective questions, candidates<lb />
addressed inquiries ranging from<lb />
how they seek to get students<lb />
more involved in SGA events and<lb />
actions to what type of tree they<lb />
would be and why.<lb />
The moderator, Laura Sweet,<lb />
ECU Ombudsman, began the<lb />
debate with a pre-prepared ques-<lb />
tion to the presidential candi-<lb />
dates. It asked how they plan to<lb />
address the concerns and ideas<lb />
students have.<lb />
"I think as exec members,<lb />
we do a lot of speaking and not<lb />
enough listening said ticket one<lb />
candidate, Ryan Wiggins.<lb />
He outlined plans for improv-<lb />
ing the already established SGA<lb />
Web site with a message board, as<lb />
well as hosting a monthly student<lb />
forum. The ticket also plans to<lb />
have surveys for students to make<lb />
their feelings known.<lb />
"Going up to the students<lb />
and being visible and accessible<lb />
is very, very important said M.<lb />
Cole Jones, current SGA presi-<lb />
dent, who is running for re-elec-<lb />
tion with ticket two.<lb />
He cited the creation of the<lb />
new SGA offices under his current<lb />
administration in Mendenhall<lb />
Student Center as an important<lb />
and accessible tool for students<lb />
to utilize in keeping in contact<lb />
with the happenings of student<lb />
government.<lb />
Ticket one would also like to<lb />
see TEC and WZMB utilized more<lb />
in the affairs of SGA with a page<lb />
set aside for info as well as on-air<lb />
time that would allow students to<lb />
call in and voice opinions.<lb />
The vice-president nomi-<lb />
nees, Sara Spuller of ticket one<lb />
and Dana White of ticket two,<lb />
addressed their pending role as<lb />
head of the Shipmates Program<lb />
as well as aspects of their office<lb />
they seek to enhance. Shipmates<lb />
is a leadership program aimed at<lb />
getting freshmen involved.<lb />
"Aim at nothing and you will<lb />
hit it every time said Spuller.<lb />
She wants the application<lb />
process to be less intimidating<lb />
to students. She also wants to<lb />
better encourage new students<lb />
to take part.<lb />
If she becomes vice-president,<lb />
she would like to see the roles of<lb />
class officers expanded.<lb />
"I think that everyone is<lb />
capable of being a leader when<lb />
given a chance said White, of<lb />
ticket two.<lb />
If she becomes vice-president,<lb />
she plans to increase freshman<lb />
awareness of the Shipmates Pro-<lb />
gram, strengthen the mentors<lb />
and student relationships, and<lb />
create a positive environment<lb />
to "increase student retention<lb />
within the Shipmate Program<lb />
The next question asked why<lb />
candidates were qualified for<lb />
their respective positions, and it<lb />
was addressed to the two treasury<lb />
candidates.<lb />
Charles Owens, of ticket one,<lb />
cited his experience as Co-Chair<lb />
of the Appropriations Commit-<lb />
tee for the Senate. This places<lb />
him in charge of senate finances<lb />
for funding of all organizations,<lb />
Greek and non-Greek.<lb />
He wants to work closely<lb />
with all student organizations<lb />
so that they may carry out all of<lb />
the events that they would like<lb />
to have. He feels this would be<lb />
the best way for them to increase<lb />
their numbers.<lb />
Chris Welch, of ticket two,<lb />
said, "Truly, the office of student<lb />
body treasurer should be filled by<lb />
an individual who is confident,<lb />
temperamental, one who is filled<lb />
with poise, integrity and deport-<lb />
ment<lb />
Welch discussed the oversee-<lb />
ing of treasury funds when he<lb />
was executive treasurer for his<lb />
fraternity. He cited his success<lb />
in his position with the bestowal<lb />
of an award of excellence by his<lb />
superiors in North Carolina.<lb />
The question for the secretary<lb />
candidates consisted of asking<lb />
how the newly-elected secretary<lb />
would plan to keep students<lb />
abreast of happenings, as well as<lb />
how he or she would plan to work<lb />
with student groups and keep<lb />
the community in the know of<lb />

Custody fight: Mom reportedly<lb />
poses as Dad in abduction case<lb />
ROANOKE RAPIDS, N.C. (AP) - A<lb />
woman accused of abducting her<lb />
two young children from their father,<lb />
then dressing like a man so she<lb />
could assume his identity, agreed<lb />
Monday to return to Arizona where<lb />
she faces kidnapping charges,<lb />
authorities said.<lb />
Shellie White, 30, was taken into<lb />
custody Friday in Roanoke Rapids,<lb />
where police said she and a woman<lb />
lived together as the children's father<lb />
and mother. It's an accusation that<lb />
White denies, saying she has never<lb />
hidden her identity.<lb />
"I never knew I was on the run<lb />
White's arrest came more than two<lb />
years after she was charged with<lb />
custodial interference in the children's<lb />
disappearance, the U.S. Marshals<lb />
Service said. Her ex-husband, Ernest<lb />
Kames, had custody of the children at<lb />
the time and learned Friday that they<lb />
had been found.<lb />
The U.S. Marshals Service, in a news<lb />
release, said White "radically changed<lb />
her appearance to that of a man and<lb />
assumed many aliases including her<lb />
ex-husband's.<lb />
"She even went so far as to tell her<lb />
children, aged 3 and 5 at the time, that<lb />
she was their father the Marshals<lb />
Service said.<lb />
"When she was arrested, the children,<lb />
now aged 6 and 8, asked why they<lb />
were arresting their Daddy<lb />
"I just want to take my babies back<lb />
home. They need to be with their<lb />
family<lb />
Outrage over alleged Duke lacrosse<lb />
rape spurs early morning rally<lb />
DURHAM, N.C. (AP) - Protesters upset<lb />
with Duke University's response to<lb />
allegations that an exotic dancer was<lb />
raped and beaten by members of<lb />
the school's lacrosse team marched<lb />
Sunday to the home of the university's<lb />
provost, where they said the school<lb />
needs to do more to protect the<lb />
community.<lb />
This is an extremely serious crime,<lb />
if it happened Provost Peter Lange<lb />
told a group of about 60 protesters<lb />
outside his home. "We don't know<lb />
the facts of what happened in the<lb />
house. We have allegations The<lb />
only people who have the means<lb />
to discover what happened in that<lb />
house are the police<lb />
Police in Durham are investigating<lb />
the March 14 assault alleged to have<lb />
occurred at a house near Duke's<lb />
East Campus. The dancer, a student<lb />
at N.C. Central University, has told<lb />
police she was hired to perform at<lb />
a small bachelor party, but instead<lb />
found herself at a party with dozens<lb />
of men where she was pulled into<lb />
a bathroom, sexually assaulted,<lb />
sodomized and beaten.<lb />
Marchers then went to the nearby<lb />
home of Lange, who after about 10<lb />
minutes emerged in a Duke T-shirt<lb />
and baseball hat to speak with the<lb />
protesters.<lb />
Authorities took DNA samples last<lb />
week from 46 members of the<lb />
Duke lacrosse team, but no arrests<lb />
have been made. Police said team<lb />
members have refused to cooperate<lb />
with their investigation; players have<lb />
told school administrators the woman<lb />
was not assaulted.<lb />
One person accused Duke<lb />
of protecting the lacrosse team,<lb />
while others noted that the alleged<lb />
attackers are white men and the<lb />
victim is a black woman. In an<lb />
interview published Friday by The<lb />
News &amp; Observer of Raleigh, the<lb />
alleged victim said her assailants<lb />
shouted racial slurs at her.<lb />
Over the weekend, Duke President<lb />
Richard Brodhead issued a statement<lb />
that "physical coercion and sexual<lb />
assault are unacceptable in any<lb />
setting and have no place at Duke"<lb />
but reiterated the school's position<lb />
that the facts of the case are in<lb />
dispute<lb />

The late Dana Reeve hosts PBS<lb />
documentary on mind and body<lb />
connection<lb />
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) - Dana Reeve<lb />
would be alive only about three<lb />
more months when she taped an<lb />
introduction to the two-hour PBS<lb />
documentary The New Medicine<lb />
The widow of paralyzed "Superman"<lb />
actor Christopher Reeve was battling<lb />
lung cancer diagnosed last summer,<lb />
but was upbeat that late November<lb />
day of the taping.<lb />
"She was very hopeful at that point<lb />
that she would survive director<lb />
Muffie Meyer recalled. "She was<lb />
buying Christmas presents for her son<lb />
that day, and really had a tremendous<lb />
amount of energy. She seemed<lb />
wonderful, and very, very grounded<lb />
and strong<lb />
In her introduction to the first segment<lb />
of The New Medicine Reeve tells<lb />
viewers: "Your emotional state has<lb />
a tremendous amount to do with<lb />
sickness, health and well-being. For<lb />
years, my husband and I lived on, and<lb />
because of, hope. Hope continues<lb />
to give me the mental strength to<lb />
carry on<lb />
Because she didn't live in New York<lb />
City, she said she was practicing<lb />
tl'is mixed approach "privately  at<lb />
home<lb />
The New Medicine though, almost<lb />
consciously avoids a New Age tone.<lb />
There are a few shots of yoga classes<lb />
and one segment in which scientists<lb />
study the brain waves of a Buddhist<lb />
monk as he meditates.<lb />
There are no magic crystals, no<lb />
"cancer diets" or trips to Mexico for<lb />
treatments outlawed in the United<lb />
States. Just a sincere effort to find<lb />
something, anything, that will lead to<lb />
a better quality of life for patients.<lb />
Boxer pleads guilty in death of<lb />
sports writer<lb />
LOS ANGELES (AP) - James Butler, a<lb />
boxer who fought under the nickname<lb />
"The Harlem Hammer pleaded<lb />
guilty to voluntary manslaughter and<lb />
arson Monday in the 2004 death of<lb />
a freelance sports writer.<lb />
Butler will be sentenced to 29 years,<lb />
four months in prison by Superior<lb />
Court Judge Michael Pastor on<lb />
April 5, according to Deputy Public<lb />
Defender Jack Keenan.<lb />
The 32-year-old fighter entered his<lb />
plea as jury selection was set to<lb />
begin in his trial for the killing of Sam<lb />
Kellerman, who was the brother of<lb />
boxing expert Max Kellerman, an<lb />
ESPN Radio show host in New York.<lb />
"I think it's a fair resolution of the<lb />
case Keenan said.<lb />
"He's always been sorry for what he<lb />
did, and in the end he thought of Sam<lb />
Kellerman as a friend<lb />
Butler faced about 34 years in<lb />
prison had he gone to trial and been<lb />
convicted of murder, Keenan said.<lb />
Kellerman's body was found in his<lb />
Hollywood apartment on Oct. 17,<lb />
2004, although authorities believe<lb />
he had been killed five days earlier.<lb />
He had been bludgeoned around the<lb />
head about 30 times while sitting at<lb />
his desktop computer, police said. A<lb />
hammer was found near Kellerman's<lb />
body, his car was missing and his<lb />
apartment was set on fire, police<lb />
said.<lb />
Sam Kellerman was a freelance writer<lb />
who covered pro boxing. He and<lb />
Butler were friends and the boxer<lb />
had been staying at Kellerman's<lb />
apartment since late September,<lb />
police said.<lb />
Butler has a pro record of 20-5. He<lb />
is best known for sucker-punching<lb />
opponent Richard Grant in November<lb />
2001 after losing a charity bout.<lb />
Butler has been in custody since his<lb />
arrest three days after the Kellerman<lb />
killing.<lb />
International<lb />
Suicide bomber kills dozens at<lb />
recruiting center; Shiltes cut off<lb />
political talks<lb />
BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) - New violence<lb />
flared Monday in northern Iraq with<lb />
40 dead in a suicide bombing, while<lb />
Shiite leaders cut off political talks<lb />
and denounced the United States<lb />
over a weekend raid that they said<lb />
killed worshippers in a mosque.<lb />
Although the United States said no<lb />
mosque was attacked, Shiites blamed<lb />
the military for killing 22 people<lb />
Sunday. Jawad al-Maliki, a lawmaker<lb />
from the United Iraqi Alliance, said the<lb />
Shiite bloc had canceled Monday's<lb />
session of negotiations to form a new<lb />
government because of the raid.<lb />
"I will personally supervise, and we<lb />
will learn who was responsible. Those<lb />
who are behind this attack must be<lb />
brought to the justice and punished<lb />
Taiabani said.<lb />
Later, gunmen kidnapped 16<lb />
employees of an Iraqi trading<lb />
company, an Interior Ministry<lb />
official said. The men arrived at the<lb />
headquarters of the Saeed import<lb />
and export company in four civilian<lb />
cars and appeared to rifle through<lb />
papers and computers before driving<lb />
away with the employees, Lt. Col.<lb />
Falah al-Mohammadawi said.<lb />
In an audiotape broadcast Monday,<lb />
Saddam's fugitive chief deputy<lb />
purportedly called for Arab leaders to<lb />
back Iraq's Sunni-backed insurgency.<lb />
The tape, which Al-Jazeera television<lb />
said was made by Izzat Ibrahim al-<lb />
Douri, appeared to be an address to<lb />
the Arab League summit in Khartoum,<lb />
Sudan, this week.<lb />
The voice said the Sunni-led<lb />
insurgency was "the sole legitimate<lb />
representative of the Iraqi people<lb />
It was impossible to determine the<lb />
tape's authenticity.<lb />
Al-Douri had been Revolutionary<lb />
Command Council vice chairman<lb />
and a longtime Saddam confidant.<lb />
From shining shoes to fighting<lb />
for civil rights: a Chinese<lb />
campaigner's story<lb />
DAQING, China (AP) - Li Jian managed<lb />
a factory, shined shoes, and sold toys.<lb />
Now he's a civil rights campaigner.<lb />
Since last fall, the Chinese, now 41, has<lb />
been advising farmers in Dongzhou,<lb />
on the southeast coast, in their fight<lb />
to keep farmland requisitioned for a<lb />
power project.<lb />
When the villagers barricaded<lb />
themselves inside the village and<lb />
police shot at them on Dec. 6, Li<lb />
mobilized.<lb />
He left his home in the northern port<lb />
of Dalian and traveled 1,000 miles to<lb />
find the village still in fear more than<lb />
two weeks later. Many villagers were<lb />
under arrest, he said. By his count<lb />
three had been killed, eight injured<lb />
and 30 were missing.<lb />
After Li posted his report on the<lb />
Internet, police visited his home and<lb />
threatened to evict him.<lb />
Raised in the northern oil city of<lb />
Daqing, Li started out working for<lb />
the state petroleum company, Then,<lb />
when the government made tropical<lb />
Hainan island a laboratory for free-<lb />
market reforms, he headed there.<lb />
His activities and the occasional<lb />
visits from police sometimes produce<lb />
friction between him and his wife. They<lb />
live chiefly off her earnings, though he<lb />
said last year he received "some<lb />
money" from overseas democracy<lb />
campaigners.<lb />
"All rights have to be struggled for.<lb />
They're not heaven-bestowed Li<lb />
said.<lb />
"China's got a long road ahead<lb />

The group worked daily from<lb />
8 a.m. - 5 p.m. through the<lb />
week of March 12 - 17. They<lb />
left on Saturday, March 11 and<lb />
returned on Saturday, March 18.<lb />
According to Jessica Gagne,<lb />
student engagement specialist of<lb />
the Volunteer Center, some of the<lb />
neighborhoods in the hurricane<lb />
stricken areas haven't received<lb />
much reconstruction help.<lb />
"Most of the stuff looked<lb />
exactly the same as it did<lb />
on our first trip down there,<lb />
which was a few months after<lb />
the hurricane happened said<lb />
Michaelina Antahades, sopho-<lb />
more public relations major.<lb />
Antahades, who planned<lb />
to make it an SGA incentive,<lb />
heavily planned the trip. After<lb />
expressing interest to Gagne<lb />
about the trip, she sent out an<lb />
e-mail to all SGA members to<lb />
see who would be interested.<lb />
Out of the SGA members,<lb />
about 10 people showed interest.<lb />
According to Gagne, the center<lb />
initially thought that only eight<lb />
people would be allowed to attend.<lb />
From that point, those<lb />
people informed others<lb />
about the opportunity and<lb />
the list of participants grew.<lb />
A few participants, such<lb />
as Brian Monroe, heard<lb />
about the trip through their<lb />
church. Monroe is a member<lb />
of Oakmont Baptist Church.<lb />
The students had to pay a<lb />
small fee of $30 to attend, which<lb />
included the gas cost as well as<lb />
money for snacks. North Caro-<lb />
lina Baptist Men group spon-<lb />
sored the rest of the trip costs.<lb />
The males stayed at the<lb />
National Guard Amory and<lb />
the females used the Pass Road<lb />
Baptist Church for housing<lb />
during the stay in Gulfport.<lb />
This was a great opportu-<lb />
nity for students who wanted<lb />
to visit the hurricane stricken<lb />
areas to help out but didn't<lb />
have the resources to do so.<lb />
"I thought it was really cool<lb />
when three guys from Duke<lb />
University just spontaneously<lb />
went down there to help out. I<lb />
wanted tobut 1 didn't have the<lb />
resources to do so said Monroe.<lb />
The ECU group that partici-<lb />
pated in helping a community in<lb />
need is one of the many college<lb />
groups who take part in these<lb />
types of things during spring break.<lb />
These trips are known as Alterna-<lb />
tive Spring Break Trips (ASB).<lb />

The better driver?<lb />
(KRT)Do you know what<lb />
she's thinking over there in the<lb />
shotgun seat while you're doing<lb />
battle on the expressways? Well,<lb />
for one thing, she may well be<lb />
thinking she could do a better<lb />
job of driving than you are.<lb />
A survey conducted for the<lb />
Chrysler Group found that<lb />
about 25 percent of women<lb />
think they are better drivers<lb />
than their significant others.<lb />
Those women probably are<lb />
the ones who practically run<lb />
you off the road by scream-<lb />
ing, "Oh, my God in traf-<lb />
fic, causing you to empty your<lb />
bladder while wildly looking<lb />
for whatever road obstacle you<lb />
thought she saw and you didn't.<lb />
Almost 50 percent of women<lb />
say they are equally as skilled at<lb />
driving as their significant others.<lb />
Sixty-eight percent of the<lb />
men thought they are better driv-<lb />
ers than their significant others.<lb />

student government actions.<lb />
Sarah Riggs, of ticket one,<lb />
cited her experience as Director<lb />
of Public Relations for Student<lb />
Government this past year and<lb />
her efforts at keeping students<lb />
informed of new events and<lb />
policies.<lb />
Riggs has plans to bring back<lb />
an older way of keeping students<lb />
informed called, "What's-Up-<lb />
Wednesdays It consists of a table<lb />
that is set up in Wright Plaza.<lb />
Here, students can speak with<lb />
SGA representatives about ques-<lb />
tions and concerns.<lb />
"The new SGA offices are a<lb />
wonderful tool to lending stu-<lb />
dents up front accessibility to stu-<lb />
dent government said Riggs.<lb />
She says she will maintain<lb />
active record files, as well an<lb />
archive file, so that students with<lb />
any inquiries will have access to<lb />
information.<lb />
Ticket two candidate Keri<lb />
Brockett said, "I think this is one<lb />
of the great opportunities that<lb />
student government has been<lb />
able to establish<lb />
Brockett feels strongly about<lb />
being in the public eye in getting<lb />
students involved with govern-<lb />
ment happenings, saying, "We<lb />
need to be seen, and we need to<lb />
be acceptable<lb />
One way she wants to do this<lb />
is to have "Talk-It-Tuesday" to<lb />
collaborate with "Taco Tuesday<lb />
With this, she hopes to have a<lb />
student representative provide<lb />
information to students while<lb />
they eat and allow for open dis-<lb />
cussion as well.<lb />
She cited the progress that her<lb />
ticket presidential running mate,<lb />
Jones, has made with the creation<lb />
of the SGA Web site, among other<lb />
things. She wants to add even<lb />
more to that.<lb />
Brockett would also like to<lb />
see mass emails sent out that<lb />
highlight happenings with SGA,<lb />
but doesn't seek to overburden<lb />
students with too much informa-<lb />
tion. The highlights will link to<lb />
more information.<lb />
The decision ultimately goes<lb />
to the students, who will have the<lb />
rest of Wednesday to vote, from<lb />
9 a.m. to 5 p.m. by logging onto<lb />
their OneStop account and click-<lb />
ing the voting tab at the bottom<lb />
of the screen.<lb />
As for which tree each of the<lb />
presidential candidates would<lb />
liken himself to, both candidates<lb />
selected the Oak tree, noting its<lb />

My Random Column<lb />
Is spring here?<lb />
It does look like it is going to be warm<lb />
this weekend, but is that just another<lb />
April Fools joke?<lb />
We are so close to the end that it<lb />
is making everything fly by even faster.<lb />
Papers, tests, quizzes and reports all due<lb />
in the coming weeks, and time is now<lb />
more limited then ever.<lb />
All-nighters and caffeine are the talk<lb />
of campus as the semester draws to<lb />
a close and becomes more and more<lb />
busy. The teachers who have waited<lb />
and pushed assignments back are not<lb />
asking for more than students are able<lb />
to easily handle with all of their other<lb />
obligations.<lb />
So as you enjoy the warm weather<lb />
this weekend, remember it is a taste of<lb />
summer. Just a hint of the time when<lb />
we will be free from the excruciating<lb />
responsibilities of 15 hours of class and<lb />
an exhausting job. Maybe is it just an<lb />
allusion to life after college for some and<lb />
a new year closer to real life for others.<lb />
Either way, it is going to be a beautiful<lb />
weekend. Just a small chance of rain but<lb />
as of now, nothing major on the forecast.<lb />
It's just enough to torture us to believe<lb />
in that day when we will soon be done<lb />
and moving on from these classes that<lb />
we are finishing.<lb />
Good luck this week; from what I<lb />
have heard, it is a tough one for most!<lb />

I've had an interesting week.<lb />
Some might say I've gotten more in<lb />
touch with my feminine side, but<lb />
I honestly feel more like I've had<lb />
to play the role of a big brother.<lb />
To begin with, I was assigned<lb />
to do a story for the paper about<lb />
two girls who felt they had been<lb />
unjustly charged by an apart-<lb />
ment complex. While I can't go<lb />
into great detail about the situa-<lb />
tion what, I can say is these two<lb />
young women, sisters actually,<lb />
have become very untrusting of<lb />
people. They had even been the<lb />
viotims of robbery and a fire.<lb />
When they moved into their new<lb />
apartment, they installed several<lb />
locks and even an alarm system<lb />
because they still felt unsafe.<lb />
On the night of the same day<lb />
that I interviewed the sisters, I<lb />
went to see the movie V for Ven-<lb />
detta with some friends of mine.<lb />
When I got back to the dorm,<lb />
after having a lengthy discus-<lb />
sion on the issues the movie<lb />
discussed with a friend of mine,<lb />
I found a young lady crying her<lb />
heart out in front of one of the<lb />
dorm rooms. When I asked her<lb />
what was wrong, she said her<lb />
boyfriend was cheating on her<lb />
pretty much as we spoke.<lb />
I almost walked away, but I<lb />
could not just leave her there to<lb />
cry and suffer. I took her outside<lb />
to get her away from the door.<lb />
She said she would drive home,<lb />
but in my experience driving<lb />
and crying don't mix very well.<lb />
I honestly thought that if she<lb />
had left in that state, she might<lb />
have been in an accident. I asked<lb />
her if she had someone she could<lb />
call, so she called her roommate,<lb />
told her what happened, and she<lb />
said that she would arrive in a<lb />
few minutes.<lb />
I took the upset young woman<lb />
to the dorm's lobby to wait inside<lb />
for her roommate. She could not<lb />
understand why he would cheat<lb />
on her. So I asked her, "Have you<lb />
ever cheated on him?" "No<lb />
she said. "Then you're the better<lb />
person I said.<lb />
Now my memory is not the<lb />
greatest in the world, but I think<lb />
what I told her was something like:<lb />
"Judging by the way you're<lb />
acting I can see that you really<lb />
care about this guy, that you're<lb />
a very trusting, loving, good<lb />
person. You can't let this guy or<lb />
people like him get to you. Take<lb />
it from me, there's a shortage of<lb />
people like you in this world.<lb />
Don't let him change you<lb />
There were times before and<lb />
after I said this that I tried to<lb />
take her boyfriend's cell phone<lb />
away so I could throw it in the<lb />
trash or the river. Why? Because<lb />
guys like that make me sick, and,<lb />
just like I'm starting to feel about<lb />
President Bush, I'm tired of them<lb />
representing me.<lb />
When I told a few of my<lb />
friends about it, the reply was<lb />
pretty much the same:<lb />
"That's not right. No one<lb />
deserves to be treated like that<lb />
Again, I wonder why most of<lb />
us, including me, are still single.<lb />
As far as I'm concerned, this<lb />
guy didn't care about what hap-<lb />
pened or could have happened<lb />
to this young woman. This<lb />
makes him a disgusting excuse<lb />
for a person in my eyes. I feel<lb />
it is always my responsibility as<lb />
a man  no, as a person  to<lb />
look out for and protect others<lb />
when they can't do it themselves.<lb />
While I do feel good about help-<lb />
ing the young woman, I just hope<lb />
that she dropped that guy like<lb />
spiking a football.<lb />
Unfortunately, this situation<lb />
is a common occurrence here on<lb />
campus and in our society. I've<lb />
heard stories about the same situa-<lb />
tion several times over the years, but<lb />
this is one of the few if only times<lb />
I've actually been able to do some-<lb />
thing about it. Maybe I saved the<lb />
image of men in this young wom-<lb />
an's eyes, or maybe I didn't. Either<lb />
way, I would still do what I did.<lb />
Frankly, I think some guys<lb />
don't realize just how lucky they<lb />
are or how good they have it.<lb />
They have somebody who cares<lb />
about them beyond just being<lb />
friends, and yet they don't seem<lb />
to care who they hurt if some-<lb />
thing "better" comes along.<lb />
It is because of guys like the<lb />
one from this weekend that 1<lb />
have trouble talking to women,<lb />
mostly because I feel that they<lb />
make assumptions about me<lb />
that coincide with guys like<lb />
that. Then again, sometimes I<lb />
see women go after guys and not<lb />
make those assumptions only to<lb />
get hurt in the end. The excuse is<lb />
always the same, too. "It was an<lb />
accident Accidents can be pre-<lb />
vented; it just takes a little effort,<lb />
such as keeping your pants on.<lb />
All I can say at this point is<lb />
that if someone cheats on you,<lb />
then that person obviously didn't<lb />
care enough about you to begin<lb />
with. If they do want you to take<lb />
them back, wait until they beg<lb />
for it. Then remember this: Trust<lb />
is easily lost, and must be "earned<lb />
back with time. That's why I think<lb />
it is better to try and never loose it.<lb />
In My Opinion<lb />
(KRT)  The speed at which<lb />
virtually all the major players in<lb />
the new economy have entered<lb />
the video-on-demand market<lb />
begs a simple question: Will U.S.<lb />
consumers pay for something a<lb />
savvy competitor probably will<lb />
offer for free? The answer should<lb />
be obvious.<lb />
Some of the country's'top<lb />
business minds obviously are<lb />
convinced that providing on-<lb />
demand television and video<lb />
programming to America's on-<lb />
the-run society is a potential<lb />
gold mine. You almost need an<lb />
official scorekeeper to keep track<lb />
of what's in play.<lb />
Apple is teaming up with ABC<lb />
and NBC Universal to offer prime<lb />
time, late night and classic TV<lb />
shows, online, on demand, for<lb />
$1.99 per pop through its online<lb />
iTunes store. NBC is offering<lb />
on-demand programming via<lb />
DirectTV. The selling point here:<lb />
the cost is only 99 cents per show,<lb />
and there are no commercials.<lb />
Google will offer current<lb />
CBS television shows, classic TV<lb />
shows, movies, NBA basketball<lb />
games and other content, which<lb />
consumers can download to<lb />
a computer or portable video<lb />
player. Prices will range from<lb />
$1.99 to $3.95.<lb />
CBS itself plans to sell pro-<lb />
grams through Comcast, but<lb />
initially only in markets where<lb />
they own TV stations. The shows<lb />
will include commercials, but<lb />
will cost just 99 cents.<lb />
Starz Entertainment Group<lb />
is offering a $9.95 monthly<lb />
subscription service allowing<lb />
consumers to download movies<lb />
to their television sets, computers<lb />
or hand-held devices. The list of<lb />
providers grows almost daily.<lb />
On-demand programming<lb />
is not entirely new. What is<lb />
new is some of the technology.<lb />
Consumers already pay for the<lb />
movies they want, when they<lb />
want them, from retailers like<lb />
Blockbuster, through the mail,<lb />
from their cable providers, and<lb />
when they're in hotel rooms.<lb />
Our analysis indicates that when<lb />
movies can be downloaded in<lb />
digital form, they probably can<lb />
be sold for $4 to $6 less than<lb />
DVDs currently cost, while still<lb />
enabling the movie studios to<lb />
earn the same profit. While this<lb />
may hurt Blockbuster and other<lb />
retailers, it will provide consum-<lb />
ers with a new option.<lb />
Television is different. We<lb />
are accustomed to spending<lb />
our money to view first-run<lb />
films in movie theaters or to<lb />
purchase newly released DVDs.<lb />
For more than half a century,<lb />
however, advertising supported<lb />
TV programming has come to<lb />
us free-of-charge. It is unclear<lb />
how many consumers will pay<lb />
for something they've always<lb />
gotten for free.<lb />
Moreover, the opportunity<lb />
to make this model work is clos-<lb />
ing. An alternative already is in<lb />
the market and gaining momen-<lb />
tum: personal video recorders<lb />
(PVRs).<lb />
Consumers can get on-<lb />
demand access to all TV pro-<lb />
gramming through PVRs, such as<lb />
TiVo, or with devices that cable<lb />
operators and satellite providers<lb />
sell and install. PVRs already are<lb />
in more than 9 percent of all U.S.<lb />
households and are growing at<lb />
approximately 32 percent per<lb />
year. If most of the consumers<lb />
Apple, Google and the broadcast<lb />
networks are targeting already<lb />
can capture and play back all of<lb />
the programs they want, with no<lb />
added charges, why would they<lb />
pay additional money for a more<lb />
limited selection?<lb />
All this begs the question of<lb />
why the networks have chosen<lb />
the Apple model when they<lb />
could be pursuing an approach<lb />
that would protect their bottom<lb />
line and that of their studio<lb />
collaborators, as well as provide<lb />
more consumer choice than even<lb />
PVRs.<lb />
If the networks were to make<lb />
all original content available<lb />
on-demand, for free, through<lb />
cable operators (utilizing existing<lb />
"Video on Demand" technol-<lb />
ogy) there would be something<lb />
for everyone. By streaming the<lb />
programming on-demand they<lb />
could include advertising that<lb />
consumers couldn't skip. By<lb />
making the programming avail-<lb />
able only during the season in<lb />
which it is aired, they could<lb />
maintain studio syndication<lb />
revenues.<lb />
Such on-demand services,<lb />
similar to those offered to cable<lb />
subscribers by HBO, CineMax,<lb />
and Showtime, would be free to<lb />
the consumer and would have<lb />
more content, better features,<lb />
and be available to more homes<lb />
sooner.<lb />
Television programming is<lb />
not the same as music or film.<lb />
The challenge for the televi-<lb />
sion networks is to look beyond<lb />
Apple and Google, embrace their<lb />
own roots, and work with the<lb />
cable industry to create a free<lb />
to the consumer, advertising<lb />
supported, on-demand model.<lb />
This would meet both consumer<lb />
needs and have the potential to<lb />
produce significant profits.<lb />

Facebook is awesome if only because it reminds<lb />
people when your birthday is so you feel really special<lb />
when a million people wish you happy birthday. I<lb />
know I've been one to trash it on occasion because it<lb />
has been the instrument of my procrastination, but<lb />
maybe it's not so bad. Thanks Facebook!<lb />
ECU makes a deal with an online music company,<lb />
and suddenly there's "editorials" (two in a row!) on<lb />
how Apple and iTunes are more evil than Hitler.<lb />
Why not just print an eight page Microsoft ad and<lb />
get it over with?<lb />
To the ignorant individual who doesn't want ECU<lb />
to allow anymore students from Maryland and New<lb />
Jersey, you're doing an excellent job of representing<lb />
"southern hospitality I must say. And in case you<lb />
haven't noticed, our university wouldn't be what it is<lb />
without all of this out of state tuition rolling it. Maybe<lb />
you need to appreciate the northerners.<lb />
To the person who wrote the rant the other day about<lb />
people hating ECU: I am transferring, but that still<lb />
does not change the fact that I have to stay here<lb />
until the end of the semester and that I hate every<lb />
day of It.<lb />

screw me over with my insurance company now! I<lb />
need your help!<lb />

Mr. Weather please make up your mind!<lb />
For the CDFR class girl who had the courage to tell<lb />
the "talkers" to shut it up: Way to go! I'm so sick of<lb />
people who come to class and talk talk talk. Take it<lb />
nome please or at least outside the class!<lb />
Pull your pants up. You look like an idiot. By the way,<lb />
I prefer paper over plastic. I may hire you based off<lb />
your resume. Yeah, right.<lb />
Is it really that necessary to instant message me while<lb />
we are on the phone together?<lb />
There needs to be a trash can at the bridge at the<lb />
bottom of college hill or I will continuously throw<lb />
my empty cans In the bushes.<lb />
To the guy who found my Onecard after I lost it,<lb />
tracked me down, and made sure to get it to me<lb />
- thank you. It's things like that, that completely<lb />
renew my faith in people in general.<lb />
How about you get your own apartment and quit<lb />
staying at ours?<lb />
I congratulate thee, ECU, for selling a bottle of (tap)<lb />
water to us for $1.17 when the retail price (found<lb />
online) is only 58 cents and a case is $4.98. You've<lb />
outsmarted us all.<lb />
My friend is bragging in her away message that six of<lb />
her rants are being published in the next TEC. Seri-<lb />
ously, who cares? And seriously, who does that?<lb />
If you're trying to get rid of Greek life, you're doing a<lb />
great job. It's pretty horrible that the person who is<lb />

Thanks to the DJ who played my favorite Eminem<lb />
song for me even though it was 80s night. It made<lb />

Is it wrong that I don't always just want to hang out<lb />
with one person 247? I mean, I have a life and other<lb />
friends beyond you. Why is that so hard for you to<lb />
understand?<lb />
Rule of thumb: You are not supposed to run any sort<lb />
of a rant about anything relating to the SGA elec-<lb />
tion. (Especially one that attacks one of the running<lb />
candidates). Oh and your coverage of our meetings<lb />
this year has sucked.<lb />
Am I the only one who doesn't care about Fifth<lb />
Street being changed to Martin Luther King Blvd.?<lb />
They could change it to Whitepeoplesuck Ave. and<lb />
it wouldn't stop me from driving on it!<lb />
I never said that some future teachers didn't drink<lb />
responsibly. A lot of us don't drink at all. I am talk-<lb />
ing about the ones that say they stayed out until 3<lb />
a.m. and they BS all of their work at the very last<lb />
minute. Teaching is a job in which we are molding<lb />
and shaping young minds, and I think that if you are<lb />
going to have a job working with children, you need<lb />
to genuinely care about them.<lb />
Here's my vote for SGA elections. 1 vote we take down<lb />
the tacky banners hanging from the trees in the mall.<lb />
I absolutely, positively cannot stand and truly hate TEC.<lb />
If you are in a car with a key in the ignition, you<lb />
are supposed to have a seat belt on. Drivers Ed 101.<lb />
I learned that when I was 15. Get over it and quit<lb />
complaining about something that is your fault!<lb />
M. Cole Jones Higher One<lb />
Ryan Wiggins isn't any better<lb />
I love how I am not one of those tanning bed addicts<lb />
and never really go out in the sun at all, and yet I'm<lb />
the one being cut on for stupid skin cancer. Does<lb />
that make sense to you? Be warned tanning addicts.<lb />
It hurts like hell!<lb />
It costs 50 cents to call someone who cares. You only<lb />
gave me 25 cents. Cheapskate!<lb />
Maybe if TEC posted your picture beside your rant<lb />
you would think twice before making ignorant<lb />
comments.<lb />

Swim into fabulous swimwear<lb />
The best bathing suits<lb />
in fashion<lb />
TOMEKASTEELE<lb />
SENIOR WRITER<lb />
The weather is changing and it's the perfect time to<lb />
start the hunt for the perfect bathing suit for the summer<lb />
heat. It can be a hassle finding a bathing suit<lb />
l that fits just right and has the perfect<lb />
f A. style, color and coverage. The prices of<lb />
J I swimsuits can range from minimal<lb />
 to pocket-breaking, and this makes<lb />
2 it even harder to find the one ideal<lb />
k ttk lor<lb />
m Ik rhere many different<lb />
JU  styles of swimsuits - the<lb />
 W one-piece, the bikini and<lb />
the tankini. It may have<lb />
a hint of old school to it<lb />
when it comes to style, but<lb />
the one piece bathing suit<lb />
is making a major come-<lb />
back. The newer styles are<lb />
racier and sexier with side<lb />
cut outs, plunging v-neck<lb />
lines, extravagant designs and<lb />
the use of metals and buckles to add flare.<lb />
A one-piece is good for those who don't want<lb />
to show too much but still want to look smoking hot.<lb />
Many one pieces come in control fabrics that help reduce<lb />
common swimsuit bulging. One-pieces are also very com-<lb />
fortable and less likely to float away on a belly flop or a<lb />
session of jumping ocean waves.<lb />
Bikinis are versatile and come in many different<lb />
shapes, colors and sizes. The bikini is essentially a two<lb />
piece bathing suit with a top and a bottom. The main<lb />
types of tops for bikinis are triangle, halter and the tube<lb />
top. Triangle tops are the most popular and work well<lb />
with women who have small- to<lb />
medium-sized busts. They can be<lb />
padded or unpadded. The halter<lb />
provides more structure for women<lb />
with a larger chest. The tube top is I<lb />
something different when it comes<lb />
to bikini tops.<lb />
The tops can either be tied with<lb />
strings or a clip. The different types of bottoms for biki-<lb />
nis are Brazilian, hipster, side tie, the hot short and the<lb />
boy short. Each of these bottoms has a different amount<lb />
of coverage. One gets the most stylish coverage from<lb />
the boy short. These boy shorts look like men's<lb />
underwear, but are more tailored to a woman's<lb />
bottom and hips. These boy shorts are the<lb />
newest fashion bottoms when it comes to<lb />
bikinis. The look is a little tougher, yet still<lb />
subtly sexy.<lb />
Guys have it made when it comes to<lb />
swimming trunks. Trunks come in all<lb />
shapes and sizes from shorter to cargo<lb />
lengths. For guys with a little more<lb />
gusto, there's also the infamous<lb />
Speedo. Most trunks for guys are<lb />
relatively inexpensive and come with<lb />
drawstrings to reduce those float away<lb />
trunk moments.<lb />
Tankinis are the new craze in swim-<lb />
suits. A tankini comes with the same bot-<lb />
toms as a bikini but the top is made more like<lb />
a tank top shirt. It covers most of the stomach<lb />
leaving a sliver of belly before the bottoms. Tankinis can<lb />
cover as much as the entire stomach or up to the mid-<lb />
stomach area. For women who want the bikini look but<lb />
still need a little something for coverage, a cover-up is a<lb />
great accessory. A cover-up is a piece of sheer material one<lb />
can wrap around the waist.<lb />
For Tnore affordable trunks and swimsuits, Old Navy<lb />
is a perfect place for a college budget and has an abun-<lb />
dance of different styles and fabrics. For high<lb />
fashion, Victoria's Secret online has more than<lb />
400 different styles of swimsuits and allows<lb />
customers to buy a different size bottom from<lb />
a top. This is a major plus from in-store buying.<lb />
Target has a fabulous line of affordable, fashion-<lb />
forward swimsuits by designer Isaac Mizrahi. For<lb />
exclusive designer swimsuits, Nordstrom has a great<lb />
selection, as does eBay.<lb />
"To make sure you don't run into someone with the<lb />
same swimsuit and to get a designer suit that is unique,<lb />
eBay is definitely a great place to look said senior apparel<lb />

TRUTH WRITER<lb />
1 must admit, this spring break<lb />
was the best ever. My friends and I<lb />
left our worries in Greenville and<lb />
went to the beach for a week. We<lb />
stayed in a big house right on the<lb />
beach and partied harder than<lb />
ever before. I don't think I had<lb />
one drink that was non-alcoholic<lb />
the whole time we were there.<lb />
Open the refrigerator and you<lb />
could find cases and cases, gallons<lb />
of liquor and all the other neces-<lb />
sary party supplies.<lb />
The house slept about IS<lb />
people, so with only 11 there,<lb />
we had more than enough space.<lb />
Jordan and I spent much time<lb />
together, as well as partying hard<lb />
with everyone else. We couldn't<lb />
have asked for better weather; it<lb />
was perfect for lying out. Drink-<lb />
ing by the fire we made on the<lb />
beach and lounging In the hot tub<lb />
were definitely my favorite things.<lb />
Needless to say, I was extremely<lb />
relaxed and worry-free.<lb />
The day before we left, Jordan<lb />
and I sat on the beach and talked for<lb />
hours. He admitted to me that he was<lb />
falling for me and could see us being<lb />
together for a long time. His openness<lb />
really scared me and the pressure 1 felt<lb />
to say it all back was unbelievable. 1<lb />
had to be honest; I could not make<lb />
myself say something that I really did<lb />
not feel. I explained to him that even<lb />
though I like him and really enjoy<lb />
hanging out with him, 1 was not ready<lb />
to take on another relationship. His<lb />
eyes dropped and his voice lowered.<lb />
I tried to explain everything and he<lb />
said he understood, but I could tell<lb />
he was not content with my response.<lb />
Later that night, 1 could not<lb />
clear my mind. 1 was not looking<lb />
for anything beyond platonic, so I<lb />
decided to do what the typical guy<lb />
would do  just end everything. I<lb />
did not want to hurt him by leading<lb />
him on, so I figured just getting out<lb />
would be easy. We left the beach on<lb />
Thursday, going our separate ways.<lb />
We talked right before we both left<lb />
and I could see how upset he was, but<lb />
I still agree that I did the right thing.<lb />
1 know that I can't go around<lb />
hurting others just because I can't let<lb />
my guard down and open back up to<lb />
another quite yet. Why does it seem<lb />
that guys can date girls without being<lb />
committed, but girls can't? Girls are<lb />
usually the clingy ones who just can't<lb />
let things go and the ones who want<lb />
more than the guy. I'm switching roles<lb />
for once.<lb />
I want to be on the other side of<lb />
the spectrum. I want to play the care-<lb />
free, I'll call you in a few days role. I'm<lb />
not doing this only for myself, but for<lb />
every girl who has been screwed over<lb />
by a guy. Watch out Greenville, I'm on<lb />
a mission to see things and act from a<lb />
guy's perspective. I want to play the<lb />
field, explore my options and enjoy<lb />
the single life.<lb />
I'm quite aware that there are good<lb />
guys out there who do not deserve<lb />
to meet me at this point in my life,<lb />
but also keep in mind that there are<lb />
many more guys who live up to all the<lb />
stereotypical traits. I know I can't kill<lb />
the double standard, but I will experi-<lb />
ence their lifestyle and just see where<lb />
it takes me.<lb />

Celebrity Profile: Vin Diesel<lb />
Not just an actor<lb />
SARAH CAMPBELL<lb />
STAFF WRITER<lb />
Vin Diesel is most well-<lb />
known for his portrayal of<lb />
action heroes in movies such<lb />
as The Fast and the Furious, The<lb />
Chronicles ofRiddkk and XXX;<lb />
however, behind his tough<lb />
guy mystique lies a man whose<lb />
talent reaches beyond the<lb />
depths of acting.<lb />
New York born and raised,<lb />
Diesel literally broke into his<lb />
first acting gig. At the age of<lb />
seven after breaking into the<lb />
Jane Street Theatre with the<lb />
intention to vandalize it with<lb />
some friends, he ran into the<lb />
woman who offered him his first<lb />
acting role.<lb />
His debut play was at the<lb />
Theatre of New City in the play<lb />
The Dinosaur Door. Through-<lb />
out his childhood, he contin-<lb />
ued acting in local theatres. In<lb />
high school, Diesel ventured<lb />
into the off-Broadway scene.<lb />
Diesel attended Hunter Col-<lb />
lege in New York, where he<lb />
intended to major in theatre, but<lb />
chose a more realistic major of<lb />
English so that he could Improve<lb />
his writing skills. To pay the bills,<lb />
he worked as a bouncer at some<lb />
of Manhattan's most popular<lb />
nightclubs; however, his true pas-<lb />
sion remained rooted in acting.<lb />
After three years of college,<lb />
Diesel dropped out in order to<lb />
go to Los Angeles hoping that<lb />
immersing himself in theatre<lb />
would help him make his own<lb />
film. However, he failed to find<lb />
work as an actor and had to take a<lb />
telemarketing job to cover his debt.<lb />
Later Diesel returned home<lb />
to New York discouraged and<lb />
disappointed, but his mother<lb />
encouraged him to follow his<lb />
dreams. He soon penned several<lb />
screenplays and turned them<lb />
into films in which he both<lb />
directed and acted.<lb />
Diesel was finally noticed<lb />
by the film industry when his<lb />
short film Multi-Facial debuted<lb />
at the 1995 Cannes Film Festival.<lb />
Multi-Facial was based on his<lb />
experiences growing up and his<lb />
perception of multiculturalism<lb />
and identity.<lb />
Two years later, in 1997, his<lb />
first full-length feature, Strays,<lb />
took the stage at the Sundance<lb />
Film Festival. Diesel wrote, co-<lb />
produced, directed and starred<lb />
in Strays, which was based on the<lb />
premise of male friendship.<lb />
 Although Strays was the more<lb />
successful of the two films, it<lb />
was Multi-Facial which won him<lb />
the approval of Steven Spielberg<lb />
and landed him in his first role<lb />
in a major motion picture as an<lb />
ill-fated private in Saving Private<lb />
Ryan.<lb />
Diesel went on to voice the<lb />
title character in the children's<lb />
film The Iron Giant before break-<lb />
ing into the stereotypical action<lb />
hero roles that he is most closely<lb />
linked to today.<lb />
After his first starring<lb />
role as a convict turned sur-<lb />
vivor in Pitch Black, Diesel<lb />
finally solidified himself as a<lb />

The green leafy herb looks somewhat like ground basil or mint.<lb />
Herbal high: Salvia?<lb />
Not a party drug and no<lb />
longer a secret<lb />
MEREDITH STEWART<lb />
SENIOR WRITER<lb />
Salvia Divinorum is one drug<lb />
of the next generation. Young<lb />
people, especially high school<lb />
students, are experimenting with<lb />
this drug that has always been<lb />
around, but not really exploited<lb />
until recently. This soft-leaved<lb />
green plant is native to Southern<lb />
Mexico and contains Salvinorin,<lb />
a powerful psychoactive chemi-<lb />
cal. Traditionally, this herb has<lb />
been used for healing, but in<lb />
the early 1990s, it became very<lb />
popular in the underground<lb />
psychedelic culture. Today, many<lb />
refer to Salvia Divinorum as<lb />
just Salvia, but slang terms are<lb />
"Mary's Herb "The Female" or<lb />
"Mint<lb />
Salvia is most commonly<lb />
smoked or chewed, and the effects<lb />
occur immediately. Within 20 to<lb />
45 seconds, you can feel the first<lb />
effects; the peak comes within<lb />
one to two minutes, and the<lb />
plateau lasts anywhere from five<lb />
to 10 minutes. The after effects<lb />
are no longer than 15 to 20<lb />
minutes.<lb />
The intense effects it pro-<lb />
vides leave such an impression<lb />
on people that in a 2004 study,<lb />
54.4 percent of people who tried<lb />
Salvia said they would definitely<lb />
do it again. Many have reported<lb />
to feel connected with a larger<lb />
"whole with a sense of profound<lb />
understanding as well as the<lb />
feeling that they were flying,<lb />
floating, twisting or turning after<lb />
using this legal herb.<lb />
Some people have experi-<lb />
enced multiple realities, visual<lb />
alterations, loss of physical coor-<lb />
dination and uncontrollable<lb />
laughter. Many try it because it<lb />
is legal, easy to access, not habit<lb />
forming, has a brief duration,<lb />
seldom leaves one with side-<lb />
effects and apparently cannot<lb />
lead to an overdose. Just as<lb />
with everything else, there are<lb />
some negative side effects. Most<lb />
people who have tried Salvia<lb />
have reported to experience<lb />
intense experiences with fear,<lb />
terror and panic, as well as exces-<lb />
sive perspiration. This potent<lb />
herb affects everyone a little<lb />
differently depending on their<lb />

"As long as one is in a comfort-<lb />
able place with trusted friends,<lb />
the intense high of Salvia seems<lb />
harmless. Although Salvia can<lb />
give the illusion of pain or heavy<lb />
pressure on the muscles, it is a<lb />
unique and fun substance that 1<lb />
would try again said Cyane Jones,<lb />
sophomore communication major.<lb />
Many people claim that noise<lb />
distractions will interfere with the<lb />
experience. When using Salvia,<lb />
watching television is annoying,<lb />
along with the sound of the radio,<lb />
but being with a few people in a<lb />
quiet or natural place is wonderful.<lb />
People are quick to judge this<lb />
legal drug just because it is some-<lb />
times marketed as a "legal can-<lb />
nabis substitute but the effects<lb />
that are produced by Salvia are<lb />
not generally perceived as those<lb />
created by marijuana.<lb />
Sore throat and lung irritation<lb />
have been reported after smoking<lb />
Salvia, but it is not considered to be<lb />
physically addicting or likely to cause<lb />
psychological dependence. There<lb />
appears not to be a tolerance level<lb />
for Salvia, so an experience can be<lb />
extended by simply smoking more.<lb />
It is recommended that one<lb />
does not operate heavy machin-<lb />
ery or drive while experiencing<lb />
Salvia. It's best to have someone<lb />
with you, in case you try to stand<lb />
up and move around because<lb />
coordination will be off and you<lb />
are likely to fall, so lying on the<lb />
floor is the safest place to be when<lb />
using Salvia. Whether you choose<lb />
to try it or not, remember to use<lb />
it in a safe, responsible matter in<lb />
a private place, and always keep<lb />
in mind that all drugs, legal or<lb />
otherwise, can be harmful to your<lb />
body and everything should be<lb />
used in moderation.<lb />

Fast Facts<lb />
Salvia Is legal In every state, except<lb />
for Louisiana.<lb />
The visionary effects are best<lb />
perceived by closing your eyes.<lb />
It seems that you cannot take a<lb />
fatal overdose.<lb />
Creates a distinct feeling of being In<lb />
a different world.<lb />

a comedic role while playing a<lb />

N.C. Indoor football team<lb />
cancels season<lb />
(AP) - The Carolina Ghostriders<lb />
indoor football team will not finish<lb />
its inaugural season because of<lb />
financial problems, the team owner<lb />
said. Robert W Boyd said he had tried<lb />
unsuccessfully to sell the team to the<lb />
American Indoor Football League before<lb />
deciding to shut down operations. The<lb />
Ghostriders are 0-4 this season, with an<lb />
average attendance of about 1,270 at<lb />
its two home games in Asheville. Earlier<lb />
this month, Boyd accused the team's<lb />
former general manager, David Dlx, in<lb />
a criminal complaint of embezzling at<lb />
least $2,000 from him and then leaving<lb />
behind unpaid bills. Ghostriders coach<lb />
Jim Terry said the league may create a<lb />
traveling team to play the Ghostriders'<lb />
remaining games.<lb />
Fan found guilty In 2004<lb />
brawl<lb />
The man accused of sparking<lb />
the brawl between players and fans<lb />
at The Palace of Auburn Hills in 2004<lb />
was convicted of assault Monday for<lb />
punching Ron Artest. John Green was<lb />
acquitted, however, of throwing a cup at<lb />
Artest - who was playing for the Pacers<lb />
at the time - before the forward charged<lb />
into the stands and began fighting with<lb />
Detroit Pistons fans. Green was the last<lb />
person with a case pending after the<lb />
brawl, one of the worst in U.S. sports<lb />
history. He faces up to 93 days in<lb />
jail and a $500 fine. Sentencing was<lb />
scheduled for May 1. The 41-year-old<lb />
contractor chewed gum and showed g<lb />
no emotion as the verdicts were read. "<lb />
Green and his attorney, Shawn Patrick<lb />
Smith, said afterward that they would<lb />
appeal on grounds that Artest was not<lb />
present for the trial.<lb />
Sampson, Indiana working to<lb />

(AP) - Oklahoma coach<lb />
Kelvin Sampson and Indiana were<lb />
completing contract details Tuesday<lb />
that would make him the Hoosiers'<lb />
next basketball coach, a person close<lb />
to the negotiations told The Associated<lb />
Press. Sampson's hiring would give the<lb />
Hoosiers a widely respected coach<lb />
and proven recruiter. He has been<lb />
successful in two major conferences -<lb />
the Pac-10 and Big 12, once served as<lb />
president of the National Association ot<lb />
Basketball Coaches and has coached<lb />
on five national teams. In 12 seasons<lb />
with the Sooners, Sampson went 279-<lb />
109 and led the Sooners to 12 straight<lb />
postseason appearances, including<lb />
their first Final Four trip in more than a<lb />
decade. His career record is 455-257<lb />
Sampson is one of six coaches with<lb />
20 or more wins each of the past nine<lb />
seasons. The others are Arizona's Lute<lb />
Olson (15), Kentucky's Tubby Smith (13),<lb />
Duke's Mike Krzyzewski (10), Syracuse's<lb />
Jim Boeheim (9) and Connecticut's Jim<lb />
Calhoun (9). But Sampson is also<lb />
leaving behind a program that is under<lb />
investigation. The NCAA is looking into<lb />
more than 550 impermissible phone<lb />
calls to recruits by Sampson and his<lb />
assistant coaches. Oklahoma officials<lb />
are scheduled to appear before an<lb />
NCAA panel in Utah on April 21.<lb />
Houston's Insurance claim on<lb />
Bagwell Is denied<lb />
An insurance claim filed by the<lb />
Houston Astros to recoup more than $15<lb />
million owed to injured first baseman<lb />
Jeff Bagwell has been denied. The<lb />
National League champions filed the<lb />
claim in January to recoup about $15.6<lb />
million of the $17 million Bagwell is<lb />
guaranteed this season in the final year<lb />
of his contract, arguing he is too hurt<lb />
to play because of a chronically injured<lb />
right shoulder The 37-year-old Bagwell<lb />
will begin the season on the disabled<lb />
list and acknowledged Saturday he<lb />
might never play again. But Ty Buthod, .<lb />
a partner for the Houston law firm <lb />
Baker Botts and an outside attorney<lb />
for Connecticut General Ufe Insurance<lb />
Company, said Monday that the Astros<lb />
were told a few weeks ago that their<lb />
claim would be denied. Buthod also<lb />
noted that Bagwell's position in the<lb />
contract was listed as "professional<lb />
baseball player-non-pitcher The<lb />
Astros, however, are not giving up.<lb />
Wayne Fisher, an attorney for the team,<lb />
said he would give the insurance<lb />
company two weeks to reconsider<lb />
Fisher said Dr. James Andrews in<lb />
Birmingham, Ala deemed on Jan. 12<lb />
that Bagwell was "totally disabled to<lb />
play baseball Bagwell, perhaps the<lb />
best hitter and most popular player in<lb />
franchise history, missed 115 games<lb />
last season following shoulder surgery<lb />
but returned in time to play for Houston<lb />
in the postseason. He was limited to<lb />
duty as a pinch hitter and designated<lb />
hitter in the Wortd Series against the<lb />
Chicago White Sox. He went 1-for-8 in<lb />
the Series with an RBI. Bagwell then<lb />
began the spring in a contentious<lb />
dispute with the club while he tried<lb />
to prove he could still play. He started<lb />
several spring games at first base,<lb />
but had to leave early in two of those<lb />
because of soreness in his shoulder.<lb />
He hit 519 with two RBI, but never had<lb />
to make a tough throw. Bagwell said<lb />
Saturday he will start the season on<lb />
the 15-day disabled list and consult<lb />
with a doctor to see if it would be<lb />
beneficial to remove bone spurs from<lb />
his shoulder.<lb />

ERIC GILMORE<lb />
SENIOR WRITER<lb />
Legendary football coach Lou<lb />
Holtz addressed his son's foot-<lb />
ball team following a bruising<lb />
140-minute practice session on<lb />
Monday afternoon. The moti-<lb />
vational giant inspired ECU'S<lb />
players with his distinctive lisp<lb />
and a trademark message.<lb />
"This football team is like a<lb />
tree said the former Notre Dame<lb />
head coach turned ESPN analyst.<lb />
"You're either growing or<lb />
you're dying<lb />
The elder Holtz continued by<lb />
praising the team's strong 2005<lb />
showing against West Virginia,<lb />
saying that W VU Head Coach Rich<lb />
Rodriguez personally told him<lb />
the Pirates were his toughest test.<lb />
With the pipe he smoked<lb />
through much of practice tucked<lb />
in his pocket, he continued by<lb />
promising that if the team contin-<lb />
ues to grow and wins its first five<lb />
games, then he'll influence ESPN<lb />
Gameday to visit Greenville.<lb />
Prior to Lou, Srs speech, Skip<lb />
Holtz stressed accountability<lb />
from his players both individu-<lb />
ally and as a collective unit. The<lb />
younger Holtz laughed at his<lb />
father's influence from observing<lb />
a single practice considering he's<lb />
been preaching the same message.<lb />
"You can keep on saying<lb />
something and saying something<lb />
as a parent, and all of a sudden<lb />
somebody at school or a guy<lb />
that plays in the NFL or (ECU<lb />
quarterback) James Pinkney says<lb />
something to my son, and it's<lb />
like, 'Dad, did you hear what he<lb />
said?' It's like, yeah, you've been<lb />
hearing that every day for the last<lb />
12 years said Skip Holtz.<lb />
What Skip has been reiterat-<lb />
ing throughout spring is that the<lb />
Pirates need to get more physical.<lb />
The message was delivered in the<lb />
form of full pads just three days<lb />
after the first official intra-squad<lb />
scrimmage.<lb />
"We're a long way away from<lb />
being a team Skip Holtz said.<lb />
"We're a little farther away<lb />
than I wanted to be, so we came out<lb />
and had a very physical practice<lb />
The second-year coach<lb />
praised many of the veterans,<lb />
but remains concerned with play-<lb />
ers who aren't giving maximum<lb />
efforts. The first depth chart will<lb />
be made public on Wednesday<lb />
afternoon. Immediately follow-<lb />
ing the release, the Pirates will<lb />
practice in shorts to prepare for<lb />
the second scrimmage on Friday.<lb />
Iiijuriis<lb />
Chris Johnson will miss the<lb />
rest of spring practice with a<lb />
neck injury. Dominique Lindsay<lb />
and Brandon Fractious have<lb />
alternated at the starting running<lb />
back slot in Johnson's absence.<lb />
Redshirt freshman Jeremy<lb />
Chambliss' shoulder was nicked<lb />
up during Friday's scrimmage.<lb />
Chambliss a big surprise from<lb />
the scout team, injury isn't too<lb />
severe. However, it could require<lb />
him to miss valuable practice time.<lb />

earlier in camp and was seen on<lb />
campus with crutches.<lb />

George Mason celebrates their first Final Four appearance in school history after their 86-84 overtime win over Connecticut.<lb />
11 reasons to love the 2006 NCAA Tournament<lb />
Not a single No. 1 seed<lb />
makes it to Indianapolis<lb />
OPINION<lb />
JOSH FERNANDEZ<lb />
STAFF WRITER<lb />
Don't deny it - you're abso-<lb />
lutely loving this year's NCAA<lb />
tournament. Sure, maybe you<lb />
lost some cash on your bracket,<lb />
but who didn't? Out of the three<lb />
million-plus brackets submit-<lb />
ted to ESPN.com's Tournament<lb />
Challenge, only four picked a<lb />
Final Four that includes Florida,<lb />
George Mason, LSU and UCLA.<lb />
And for once, the Final Four<lb />
consists of teams I'm glad to see<lb />
there. Whichever team wins, I'll<lb />
be happy knowing J.J. Redick is<lb />
shedding a tear thinking of what<lb />
could have been.<lb />
But I digress. I'm going to give<lb />
you 11 reasons as to why the '06<lb />
tourney is one for the ages. If<lb />
you're curious, by the way, the<lb />
"11" derives from the seeding<lb />
of the greatest Cinderfella ever,<lb />
George Mason, and its improb-<lb />
able run to the Final Four.<lb />
1. No number 1 seeds<lb />
Without a single No. 1 seed in<lb />
the Final Four, Dick Vitale is now<lb />
having a brain aneurism. This<lb />
phenomenon can only be attrib-<lb />
uted to the strong mid-major<lb />
and at-large schools that were<lb />
hungry to knock off a team like<lb />
Duke or UConn. Maybe these big-<lb />
name programs went home early<lb />
because they underestimated<lb />
their opponents. Maybe these<lb />
improbable teams are just that<lb />
good. Or maybe it was the selec-<lb />
tion committee under-seeding<lb />
these teams that were supposed<lb />
to lose? This is the first time since<lb />
1980 that no No. 1 seed was in<lb />
the Final Four.<lb />
2. The multitude of<lb />
upsets<lb />
Take a look at these names<lb />
- George Mason (obviously),<lb />
Northwestern State, Bradley,<lb />
Wichita State, Montana, Wiscon-<lb />
sin-Milwaukee, not to mention<lb />
the lesser upsets in between.<lb />
The stories that will remain long<lb />
after this tournament ends will<lb />
entertain people for a quite some<lb />
time. Jermaine Wallace's fade<lb />
away three at the buzzer sent<lb />
Iowa home and Northwestern<lb />
State to the next round; Kansas<lb />
struggled against Bradley all day,<lb />
same with Nevada's effort versus<lb />
Montana; Wisconsin-Milwau-<lb />
kee and Wichita State, for those<lb />
who knew, were predicted to<lb />
do well in the tournament, but<lb />
their namesakes said otherwise.<lb />
Regardless, they all upset a few<lb />
good teams and busted a lot of<lb />
brackets.<lb />
3. The repercussions of<lb />
certain losses<lb />
It's possible, if not likely, that<lb />
college basketball fans are going<lb />
to get anothendose of Adam Mor-<lb />
rison, the Gonzaga star forward<lb />
who, in all likelihood, would go<lb />
in the top 10 of the 2006 NBA<lb />
Draft. After the Zags heartbreak-<lb />
ing loss at the hands of UCLA,<lb />
"The 'Stache" is probably going<lb />
to make another run for the title<lb />
and a college degree as well. In<lb />
general, though, teams that lost<lb />
will surely be reevaluating their<lb />
approach to taking on these mid-<lb />
major schools since the name<lb />
on their jerseys won't guarantee<lb />
anything.<lb />
4. The "changing of the<lb />
guard"<lb />
I know it's a bit premature<lb />
to say, but I think the NCAA is<lb />
approaching a new era of sorts;<lb />
by that, 1 mean the teams we once<lb />
expected to do well and win year<lb />
in and year out, no matter what,<lb />
are going to have to expect a<lb />
tough game, every game. Obvi-<lb />
ously, there will be bad teams<lb />
- that's a given. But now that<lb />
high school kids are seeing these<lb />
small, almost unknown schools<lb />
beat the giants of the NCAA, they<lb />
may be more inclined to play for<lb />
them, leading to better teams all<lb />
around, which leads to<lb />
5. The effect on recruiting<lb />
Recruiting, in my opinion, is<lb />
going to become more difficult for<lb />
coaches, especially after what's<lb />
been going on the past few weeks.<lb />
Like I said above, high school<lb />
kids are watching mid-majors<lb />
win big games, and we all know<lb />
how superficial these kids are.<lb />
They've got to go to best school,<lb />
the one that's winning, the one<lb />
that did well in the tournament,<lb />
the one that will give them play-<lb />
ing time. Well, now that more<lb />
small schools are on the map and<lb />
will most likely be on national<lb />
television more often, it's safe<lb />
see NCAA page A9<lb />
A.J. Hawk flirted with the<lb />
idea of entering the NFL draft<lb />
following his junior year. The<lb />
Ohio State linebacker stuck<lb />
around for his senior season<lb />
and the decision should pay off<lb />
nicely for Hawk, who is regarded<lb />
as the top senior defensive<lb />
prospect in next month's NFL<lb />
Draft. Hawk leads a class that is<lb />
considered to be the best since<lb />
2000, when Lavar Arrington,<lb />
Brian Urlacher and Julian Pete-<lb />
son were selected.<lb />
Hawk led the Buckeyes in<lb />
tackles for the second straight<lb />
year in 2005 and was a first-team<lb />
All-America selection. At 6 feet 1<lb />
inch and 240 pounds, he has the<lb />
ideal size for an NFL middle line-<lb />
backer and his field vision was<lb />
nearly unparalleled. The 2005 Big<lb />
Ten Defensive Player of the Year<lb />
was tops among linebackers with<lb />
9.5 sacks and 16.5 tackles for a<lb />
loss. He could make a run at being<lb />
the fifth linebacker in the last six<lb />
years to win Defensive Rookie of<lb />
the Year. Seattle's Lofa Tatupu<lb />
won the award last season.<lb />
Including Hawk, the Big Ten<lb />
has four of the top 10 linebacker<lb />
prospects. Iowa's Chad Green-<lb />
way, Abdul Hodge and Hawk's<lb />
teammate in Columbus, Bobby<lb />
Carpenter, are all locks to be day<lb />
one draft picks. These four, along<lb />
with Florida State's Ernie Sims<lb />
and Alabama's Demeco Ryans, all<lb />
have a chance at being selected<lb />
in the first round. Hawk is a near<lb />
lock as a top 10 pick, with the<lb />
Packers, 49ers and Bills all show-<lb />
ing interest.<lb />
Greenway has drawn com-<lb />
parisons to Chicago's Urlacher,<lb />
even though he plays outside<lb />
linebacker. At 6 feet 4 inches and<lb />

'Big Baby' and LSU Tigers are<lb />
wise beyond their years<lb />
KRT - The big guy known<lb />
as "Big Baby" has the broadest<lb />
shoulders and strongest arms<lb />
among Louisiana State's bas-<lb />
ketball players, but Glen Davis<lb />
discovered a new use for his<lb />
muscles and a new definition of<lb />
teammate when thousands of<lb />
Gulf Coast refugees converged<lb />
on Baton Rouge, La in August<lb />
after Hurricane Katrina battered<lb />
their lives.<lb />
As the players morphed into<lb />
MASH unit volunteers, Davis<lb />
became a human IV tree. Doc-<lb />
tors pumped medicine into the<lb />
injured while hanging bags of<lb />
intravenous fluids on Davis'<lb />
arms. One of those patients died<lb />
in front of the 20-year-old, who<lb />
cried as hard as he had since<lb />
earning his nickname a decade<lb />
earlier on .the football field.<lb />
"It really touched me as far as<lb />
my purpose in life to see a patient<lb />
sitting there and everything they<lb />
went through Davis said. "So it<lb />
really changed my life and gave<lb />
me a purpose to strive for<lb />
As if striving to win 20 games,<lb />
excel in the Southeastern Confer-<lb />
ence and advance to the NCAA<lb />
tournament weren't enough.<lb />
The Tigers (27-8) are the<lb />
youngest team headed to the<lb />
Final Four in Indianapolis, with<lb />
seven freshmen and only one<lb />
senior. Most of the players were<lb />
born in 1986, the last year LSU<lb />
reached the Final Four.<lb />
Many fans believe the Tigers<lb />
are precociously playing beyond<lb />
their years, but they were tough-<lb />
ened more by their preseason<lb />
observation of the storm ordeal<lb />
than the on-court schedule.<lb />
"That was one of the times<lb />
that the team began to really<lb />
pull together, because we<lb />
realized that at any point that<lb />
could have been our campus<lb />
that was hit freshman for-<lb />
ward Tyrus Thomas said. "We<lb />
helped out, and a couple of<lb />
us shared tears. It was an eye-<lb />
opening experience for us<lb />
Katrina devastated New<lb />
Orleans but spared Baton Rouge,<lb />
the state capital and home of<lb />
the state university. Players had<lb />
friends and family members<lb />
who suffered but were not seri-<lb />
ously harmed. Still, they took<lb />
the storm's assault personally,<lb />
perhaps more so since many of<lb />
the players are local.<lb />
Davis, Thomas, freshman<lb />
Garrett Temple, sophomore<lb />
David Fleshman and junior<lb />
Darnell Lazare are from Baton<lb />
Rouge. Freshman Tasmin Mitch-<lb />
ell is from Denham Springs, 10<lb />
miles away, and senior Darrel<lb />
Mitchell is from St. Martlnville,<lb />
45 miles away.<lb />
Some have known one<lb />
another since they were tod-<lb />
dlers, attended elementary<lb />
school together or began play-<lb />
ing together on AAU teams at 13.<lb />
Several share apartments now. t<lb />
"The care and concern that<lb />
these guys have for one another<lb />
because of how long they have<lb />
known each other and each<lb />
other's families and their back-<lb />
grounds, I think all of that makes<lb />
a difference LSU coach John<lb />
Brady said.<lb />
Davis said he and Thomas are<lb />
like kin, "brothers of a different<lb />
mother And there are occa-<lb />
sions, Brady said, when they act<lb />
like competitive siblings.<lb />
"If I put Glen Davis and<lb />
Tyrus Thomas on an oppos-<lb />
ing team, as close as they<lb />
are, it becomes like two<lb />
brothers in a fistfight Brady<lb />
said. "Our practice goes straight<lb />
to meltdown mode<lb />
After LSU beat Duke, Brady<lb />
said Gov. Kathleen Blanco tele-<lb />
phoned him to say what an<lb />
"enormous amount of pride<lb />
there has been for our team and<lb />
state. Louisiana needed a positive<lb />
image, and we're helping on that<lb />
in our little way<lb />
The Tigers might help a<lb />
little more with a win or two in<lb />
Indianapolis.<lb />
Davis cuts down his piece of the net after LSU's win over Texas.<lb />
NCAA from page A8<lb />
to say that the ACC, Big 10, Pac<lb />
10, Big East, SEC, Big XII, etc.<lb />
had better watch out - the Mis-<lb />
souri Valley, Colonial, and A-10<lb />
conferences are coming fast and<lb />
they're hungry.<lb />
6. It sharpens our bracket<lb />
ability<lb />
Now that essentially all of our<lb />
brackets are worth about as much<lb />
as a Billy Ripken rookie card, we<lb />
can use the valuable tool of hind-<lb />
sight to better our 2007 brackets.<lb />
Looking back, I, for example,<lb />
picked UConn, Texas, Ohio State,<lb />
and UCLA (still alive thank-<lb />
fully) to go to the Final Four.<lb />
Respectively, that is a number<lb />
one seed and three number twos.<lb />
Looking back on the seeds that<lb />
comprised the Final Fours of<lb />
the past decade, my guesses for<lb />
this year's bracket turned out to<lb />
suck, frankly (actually, my one<lb />
correct pick, UCLA, was positive<lb />
considering two-thirds of the<lb />
more than three million ESPN,<lb />
com submissions got the Final<lb />
Four completely wrong). Most<lb />
Final Fours have, at most, two<lb />
number ones and are peppered<lb />
with seeds other than twos and<lb />
threes. A lesson for the future<lb />
- diversify.<lb />
7. Mid majors earn more<lb />
dough<lb />
Getting in the "Big Dance"<lb />
is a great experience and oppor-<lb />
tunity in its own right; winning<lb />
a game (or more) in it is a whole<lb />
other story. According to Michi-<lb />
gan State sports information<lb />
director John Lewandowski, the<lb />
Spartans took home $1.2 million<lb />
for their 2001 Final Four appear-<lb />
ance. For a school like MSU,<lb />
one which has an endowment<lb />
of $1,325 billion, that figure is<lb />
chump change. But for George<lb />
Mason ($135 million), Montana<lb />
($8 million), or say East Caro-<lb />
lina ($70 million), that money<lb />
is quite valuable. Bottom line:<lb />
small schools are going to start<lb />
pulling in the big money with<lb />
these huge tournament wins,<lb />
leading to better recruits and<lb />
better programs.<lb />
8. The great games<lb />
"Impressive" doesn't do this<lb />
tournament justice; "amazing"<lb />
suits it much better. Down by<lb />
17 with less than nine minutes<lb />
left, 14-seeded Northwestern<lb />
State stormed back to cut Iowa's<lb />
lead to two. Then Jermaine Wil-<lb />
liams connected on a fade away<lb />
three-pointer with 0.5 seconds<lb />
remaining for the win over<lb />
the third-seeded Hawkeys. The<lb />
double-overtime thriller between<lb />
Boston College and Pacific was<lb />
one for the ages. Tennessee and<lb />
Winthrop put on a show. The<lb />
lead changed numerous times;<lb />
however, Chris Lofton's 19-foot<lb />
jumper from the corner with 0.4<lb />
seconds remaining sealed the<lb />
win for the Vols. Texas' stun-<lb />
ning win over West Virginia,<lb />
which saw Kevin Pittsnogle hit<lb />
a three with seconds left to take<lb />
the lead, only for Kenton Paulino<lb />
to hit a buzzer-beating three to<lb />
send the Longhorns to the next<lb />
round. I know I'm forgetting<lb />
some (the UConn and George<lb />
Mason game), but it's clear that<lb />
2006 had more thrills packed<lb />
into a single tourney than any<lb />
other in recent memory.<lb />
9. Much-needed NCAA<lb />
shakeup<lb />
The NCAA needed a jolt<lb />
- something that would, as the<lb />
title says, shakeup the status quo.<lb />
Like previously stated, there are<lb />
zero No. 1 seeds in the Final Four<lb />
and that, as a result, opens the<lb />
door to so many new possibilities<lb />
for the coming seasons. Future<lb />
schedules will be scrutinized<lb />
much more than in the past<lb />
because early season match-ups<lb />
with these "Cinderella" teams<lb />
that once were pushovers are<lb />
now big games. Keep in mind,<lb />
most big-name schools fre-<lb />
quently lose star players early to<lb />
the NBA. That fact makes them<lb />
more vulnerable since they're<lb />
using young, inexperienced<lb />
players that haven't yet been<lb />
under the huge pressure of the<lb />
tourney. Enter the mid-majors,<lb />
teams that commonly see their<lb />
players stay all four years and<lb />
graduate and are not expected<lb />
to win, which results in less pres-<lb />
sure on their player's shoulders.<lb />
These teams with experienced<lb />
and seasoned seniors and juniors<lb />
have an upper hand on the big-<lb />
name schools we once assumed<lb />
to win. Expect an even more<lb />
competitive NCAA and more<lb />
parity.<lb />
10. Next season<lb />
Next season should be a treat.<lb />
So many new stories will arise,<lb />
and 1 foresee much of the drama<lb />
from this year to carry over to<lb />
next season. For example, Duke,<lb />
Boston College, Villanova and<lb />
Memphis, teams that were sup-<lb />
posed to do great, did just that;<lb />
however, they couldn't last until<lb />
the end. How will they fare next<lb />
season after losing their inte-<lb />
gral players? Teams that were<lb />
rebuilding but surprised this<lb />
season, like Ohio State (expect-<lb />
ing 18-year-old, 7-footer Greg<lb />
Oden, widely considered to be<lb />
the best high school basketball<lb />
player in the United States) and<lb />
UNC (Tyler Hansborough will<lb />
be back after his astounding<lb />
freshman campaign), should be<lb />
great, if not the best in the NCAA<lb />
because of returning players and<lb />
incoming future stars. Then, of<lb />
course, there are the stories that<lb />
will materialize as the coming<lb />
months progress.<lb />
11. George Mason<lb />
Before this year, George<lb />
Mason had never won an NCAA<lb />
tournament game; they are the<lb />
lowest seed (since the 1986 64-<lb />
team expansion) to reach the<lb />
Final Four since No. 11 LSU in<lb />
1986; only 1,853 entries on ESPN,<lb />
com picked the Patriots to reach<lb />
the Final Four, which is a mere<lb />
.0006 of the three million-plus<lb />
total entries. George Mason beat<lb />
No. 6 MSU, No. 2 UNC, No. 7<lb />
Wichita State and No. 1 UConn<lb />
on its way to the Final Four. They<lb />
are the first true "outsider" to<lb />
crash the Final Four since Penn<lb />
and Indiana State both got there<lb />
in 1979. They are the ultimate<lb />
underdog and I'll tell you this<lb />
much - I'm rooting for "Mason<lb />
the team that on Sunday pulled<lb />
off the greatest upset in NCAA<lb />
history and could possibly accom-<lb />
plish one of the greatest team-<lb />
efforts in the history of sport.<lb />

235 pounds, he could be a perfect<lb />
fit as an outside backer in a 3-4<lb />

Hodge might be the best<lb />
athlete in the linebacker crop.<lb />
The Iowa middle man has been<lb />
a playmaker for the Hawkeyes<lb />
for the last four years. He led the<lb />
Hawkeye defense to the Big Ten<lb />
title in 2004 and had another<lb />
solid season in 2005 with a con-<lb />

also recorded 11 tackles for a loss,<lb />

recoveries and a sack.<lb />

Per<lb />
Month<lb />
This coupon good lor<lb />
a first-round prospect, with the<lb />
Giants at 25 or the Steelers at<lb />
32 possible homes. At 6 feet 3<lb />
inches and 235 pounds and a<lb />
40-time around 4.7, Carpenter<lb />
possesses all the tools teams are<lb />
looking for at outside linebacker.<lb />
While Greenway, Hodge and<lb />
Carpenter are day one locks,<lb />
Florida State's Sims should be the<lb />
second linebacker taken off the<lb />
board. He leads a strong ACC class<lb />
of linebackers, which includes<lb />
Maryland's D'Qwell Jackson,<lb />
Georgia Tech's Gerris Wilkinson,<lb />
Virginia's Kai Parham, N.C. State's<lb />
Oliver Hoyte and Stephen Tulloch<lb />
and Florida State's A.J. Nicholson,<lb />
who hails from Winston-Salem.<lb />
Maryland's William Kershaw,<lb />
from Raeford, N.C, is another<lb />
ACC prospect.<lb />
Although Jackson and Tulloch<lb />
were 1-2 in the ACC in tackles, it's<lb />
Sims' potential, athleticism and<lb />
ability to play behind the line that<lb />
has him rated so high. The Eagles,<lb />
who need an outside linebacker,<lb />
seem to be a strong option for Sims<lb />
with the 14th overall pick.<lb />
East Carolina's Chris Moore<lb />
led Conference USA in tackles<lb />
in 2004 and in tackles for a loss<lb />
in 2005 with 15, but it's UTEP's<lb />
Thomas Howard who is receiving<lb />
the NFL draft hype. Howard has<lb />
the prototypical NFL size for a<lb />
linebacker at 6 feet 3 inches and<lb />
240 pounds. Howard's 40-time of<lb />
4.42 impressed scouts at the com-<lb />
bine and his instincts made him a<lb />
great sideline-to-sideline player for<lb />
the Miners. ECU'S Richard Koonce<lb />
will probably not get drafted, but<lb />
should be signed post-draft and<lb />
brought into a camp.<lb />
This is the second part in<lb />
a series of draft previews. Next<lb />
week, I will preview the defensive<lb />
backs. The NFL Draft is April 28-29<lb />
in New York City.<lb />
