Student Risks Arrest at Women’s March on Washington

Yvonne de los Santos Contributing Writer

Ph.D student Ann “Lori” Hartness was at a Starbucks at nine in the morning using a Sharpie to tattoo the number to a lawyer on her forearm.

“In case I get arrested,” Hartness, 55, said. The grandmother of two promised her husband and father that she would do the opposite.

“I did not call my dad this morning. He’s so sure I’m going to die or get arrested.”

Her dad feared the worst since the night before, he told her that more than 200 protesters were arrested for vandalizing and setting fires in the nation’s capitol as an attempt to disrupt Donald Trump’s inauguration. Her husband, Stephen, 66, shared Hartness’ sense of preparation.

“My husband asked me if everyone had his number in case I needed bail money,” Hartness said.

Organizers from Unite Women who partnered with the Women’s March group posted a protest guide on their website in case of being placed under arrest. Along with the advice to use a Sharpie to write the number of the National Lawyer’s Guild on an arm or leg, protesters were also encouraged to bring Maalox in case of exposure to tear gas.

As Hartness marched down Inde-

pendence Avenue, protesters gazed at her black and white shirt. All said, “I love your shirt.”

Printed with a black cat with claws out, it reads as a response to Trump’s 2005 recorded brag about grabbing women by their genitals: “Pussies Against Trump. You Can’t Grab This!”

Hartness said the reason she was marching was because of Trump’s threats to build a wall and to eliminate Obamacare, which hits close to home. Not leaving anything to chance, Hartness texted her son-inlaw, Franklin Vazquez on Jan. 5 that she could help him pay $725, the cost to be a U.S. citizen.

“I have money for you before the inauguration to get squared away,” Hartness said in a text Vazquez.

Although both of his sisters were born in the U.S., Vazquez was not.

He was born in Mexico when his parents, both U.S. citizens, returned to their native land for a small time to be with his grandparents before returning back to America. He just assumed growing up that he was already a citizen until he found out he wasn’t. Then there was the issue of choosing to feed the family with the money he earned or saving it for himself to become a citizen. Trump’s election as president motivated Hart-

ness to get involved in her daughter, Krystal Lesniak’s, marriage because she feared Krystal stood a chance of raising the 28-year-old couple’s two children alone based on Trump’s threat to deport undocumented immigrants. Today, Vazquez is a citizen.

Hartness’ concern of Trump as president grew more after his threat to repeal Obamacare, which allows individuals health care despite preexisting conditions. Hartness’ son, Thomas Elliott, 34, suffers from hydrocephalus, a condition rendering his brain to secrete cerebral fluid excessively since he was in utero. He also has Asperger’s syndrome. Considered “high functioning” in the autistic spectrum, Elliott is able to volunteer at his local non-profit thrift store. But recently, he’s told Hartness he wants to try to work.

“If he works, he will qualify for Obamacare since he is currently on Medicaid and receives SSI,” Hartness said.

As a disabled adult, Supplemental Security Insurance (SSI) allows Elliott benefits to meet his basic needs of clothing, food and shelter based on his lack of income. However, if he decides to work he will not qualify for SSI. If his attempts to become more independent backfires without a job and Trump repeals Obamacare without a similar replacement, Thomas can stand a chance of not having any insurance if the qualifications to be insured is denied based on his preexisting conditions.

There are hundreds of thousands of other mothers like Hartness who advanced on Independence Avenue where it was reported by NBC news

that the massive turn out forced a change of plans. The original route was from the National Mall to the White House, but organizers were forced to redirect from the National Monument to the White House to make room for the estimated 500,000 that came out, double than what was expected.

Marching with the Resisters, African-American Lashawn Baines, 42, a stay-at-home grandmother and mother of two, joined the national group to gain Trump’s attention to minority communities who have been victimized by the police that developed movements such as "Black Lives Matter."

“I’m here to fight racism. We can’t go back. We need to continue going forward,” Baines said, who flew in from Fresno, California.

Her husband, Oliver, is currently the only sitting African-American serving District 3 on the city council, where he served with the Fresno Police Department for 12 years.

Standing at just 4-foot-9, Hartness continued marching with other groups. She was towered by taller protesters like sophomore Anthony Fiore, 20, a student at Virginia Commonwealth University who is majoring in costume design.

"I’m standing in solidarity with women and the country as a whole against Donald Trump. For myself I’m most concerned about LGBT rights which may be overturned.

I’m aware of the massive threat to women’s health care that the Trump presidency proposes. I’m hoping that this [march] will show our leaders, especially the representatives that could

really affect the most change, how the country is feeling,” Fiore said.

Even taller is 6-foot-1 Abraham Ruiz, 32, a native of Los Angeles, now living in D.C. “I brought family from Atlanta to walk too. As a son of immigrant Mexicans, as a gay Latino, the fight continues for our rights; citizen rights, gay rights, women’s rights. We cannot afford to go back in time and take 10 steps back. All of us here realize that we all have power,” Ruiz said.

The Washington Post reported that over a million marchers in D.C. and sister cities from Los Angeles to Miami, and around the world including London, Paris and Melbourne protested against Trump’s rise to the highest office in America. President Trump’s inauguration turnout was tiny in size compared to the supporters at the Women’s March.

Hartness said at this point she isn’t reaching out to Trump anymore. She doesn’t think the worldwide support from the march will matter to him.

Trump’s White House website removed the links to LGBT, Climate Change, Civil Rights and Disabilities the day of his inauguration. Although archiving these websites for a new vision was common practice with past administrations when the transition of power begins, it has not been replaced by Trump.

“Trump believes what Trump believes. This [march] wasn’t for Trump.

There are other legislators. The House and Senate have people in it that are reasonable. I want for my government and all parts of government to know that Trump isn’t qualified for the job as president," Hartness said.

Donald Trump Sworn into Office

Morgan Engelhardt News Editor

On Jan. 20, Donald Trump was officially sworn into office as the President of the United States. Thousands of people took over the capitol in the rain to watch him take this presidential oath.

President Trump did not waste any time getting to business with a stern inauguration speech and rhetoric of the division within America and how the “elite” of Washington, D.C. had shut out the people. He promised that his arrival into the White House

would change that. The main focus of his speech was to “make America first again,” which was in sync with the slogan of his “Make America Great Again” campaign.

“We are transferring power from Washington, D.C. and giving it back to you, the people,” President Trump said.

He also thanked former President Barack Obama for his guidance during his transition into The White House.

“We are grateful to President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama for their gracious aid through-

out this transition. They have been magnificent,” Presidenr Trump said.

The president ended his speech with the promise of making America proud, wealthy and safe again.

After his inauguration, President Trump was quick to sign his first executive order in the Oval Office. With the recent vote from Senate to repeal Obamacare, the president signed an order to help those who will be affected by the healthcare change. He also had two of his cabinet members approved by the Senate: retired Gen. James "Mad Dog" Mattis as his Defense Secretary and retired Gen. John

Kelly as his Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security.

However, with his low approval ratings with citizens, the day was marred with protest. Violence filled the streets of Washington, D.C. as hundreds of anti-Trump protesters rallied against the new president. Protesters set fires and broke windows.

At one point, demonstrators broke the window of a police van, according to CNN. Police officers wore riot gear and responded to the protests with tear gas, pepper spray and concussion grenades. Approximately 200 protesters

within the D.C. area were arrested and six officers have minor injuries.

D.C. Police expected an even higher turnout of protests on Jan. 21 during the Women’s March on Washington. The march was intended to send a message to the incoming administration that “women’s rights are human rights.” The president of Planned Parenthood, Cecile Richards, was in attendance.

'No, I Am Not a Terrorist' SaiJai Miller Contributing Writer On Jan. 18, the Student Activities Council hosted a seminar about Muslim culture called “No, I Am Not a Terrorist” featuring guest speaker and author Zohra Sarwari. The event allowed students to hear about issues in being negatively stereotyped or harassed in relation to being Muslim.

Sarwari shared her personal experiences of what it means to be Muslim and how the world perceives followers of Islam. She found stunning statistics years ago, from a Washington Post-ABC News poll stating 55 percent of Americans lack understanding of the Muslim religion and 48 percent have an unfavorable view of Muslims.

She believes that those statistics have increased recently and said this negative outlook heartened her to speak and educate the public about the Muslim community, both within the U.S. and internationally.

Throughout the seminar, Sarwari quoted the Quran and shared her interpretation of its passages. She explained religious dress of women, discussed states’ rights, the current political climate after the recent presidential election and First Amendment rights.

“We need to unite to make sure that our First Amendment rights in America are protected. This country belongs to all of us and we could live in peace if we all understood each other and we were all tolerant,” Sar-

wari said.

Sarwari then discussed the history of how various demographics have been treated within the U.S. Recently, Oregon has promoted legislation to make it illegal to wear a head scarf despite the fact that federally the U.S. protects freedom of religion through the First Amendment. She explained that in the comfort of their home, many Muslim women will wear nonreligious garments and clothing that any other woman would wear.

Sarwari explained three forms of religious dress that Muslim women wear when in public. The jilbab is a long dress where only the hands and face can be seen and is considered the desired dress code. The niqab follows the clothing choices of the wives of

the Prophet and is a more reserved attire where the wearers may feel closer to God. The last garment described was the hijab, commonly referred to as the head scarf, which is often worn with other different clothing items.

Another way to understand jilbabs, niqabs or hijabs is to compare them to the kippah or yarmulke Jewish men wear in the temple. Some men will only wear it during religious observances or at the temple, while other men will wear it outside of places of worship.

“Remember all men and women are created equal with the same needs and wants. Remember, at a basic level, we’re 98 percent the same and only two percent different. That two percent difference should not determine

how we live together,” Sarwari said.

The event was a way for attendees to learn more about different cultures and themselves. Jaiden Earle attended the event to gain cultural insight and found the engagement offered a more in-depth perspective from someone of the Muslim faith.

"We’re all different and need to be more open-minded of other cultures,” Earle said.

The president of the Muslim Student Association, Muhammed Rahman who was also present, encouraged the Monarch community to visit the Islamic Center to learn more about the organization.

Hot Topics With ODU Out

Rashad McDowell Contributing Writer

ODU Out hosted a monthly Hot Topics panel on Jan. 19 in the President's Dining Room located in the Webb Center. The panel was an opportunity for LGBT students to learn about resources available on campus and classes that they may not have heard of.

Dr. Vanesa Panfil from the Sociology and Criminal Justice department, Dr. Cathleen Rhodes from the English department and Joe Ritchie from the Safe Space Committee were invited to share information they had from their respective departments along with sharing personal experiences as LGBT faculty and staff. ODU Out Interim President SaiJai Miller and Interim Vice President Dean Cooper were in attendance as well.

Panfil talked about the research she conducts, which focuses on the LGBT community and the criminal

justice system. She elaborated on how she entered the field of research and how supportive the university is to our campus LGBT faculty and staff.

“Is everyone that works at ODU gay?” Panfil asked, quoting her mother who asked her this question after explaining how much queer research is done on campus.

Panfil expressed her belief that the school values their LGBT faculty and has been very supportive of her research and that of her colleagues.

Panfil teaches several queer themed classes in her department.

Rhodes introduced the students to the Gay Cultural Studies Program.

The program provides post doctorate positions for graduates to continue their research before moving on to permanent university employment. It also provides support to queer theme research being conducted by faculty and students on campus.

Rhodes talked about the Tidewater Queer History Project (THQP)

that she founded in 2015. THQP chronicles the experiences of LGBT people from prior generations and experiences are recorded and donated to the Perry Library.

“I call it having a foot in the community and a foot in the university,” Rhodes said of the THQP. She spoke about how the THQP discovered a gay newspaper from the '70s that operated in the Tidewater area. Students were shown a trailer Rhodes prepared for THQP and encouraged attendees to show the video to others. Rhodes teaches Queer Literature in the spring and Queer Studies in the fall, both of which view materials created by the TQHP. Ritchie informed students of the functions of the Safe Space Committee. The committee works with different organizations across campus, including the Office of Intercultural Relations, the Women’s Center and the Counseling Center to promote special events and provide support

Vision Board Party Inspires Students Erin Sudek Staff Writer

Students got a chance to set goals and get motivated while getting in touch with their creative side at the Vision Board Party held by the Women’s Center and SHS Health Promotion on Jan. 21 in the President's Dining Room in the Webb Center.

There was a small discussion on the purpose and importance of creating vision boards before students jumped in to make their own posters. Vision boards can be a useful tool that help clarify specific goals and maintain focus on attaining them. Any kind of board can be used to create and display different images that represent what you want to do.

“It's important for students to have a plan for after they graduate or during school or whatever is in their future,” Michelle Mondrey, a junior and member of Health Promotion, said.

Many different kinds of art supplies and materials were provided for students. Various poster boards of all sizes, bulletin boards, colored pencils, ribbons and tons of glitter were just a few of the many materials that enabled students to use their imagination in making a unique board that represented themselves.

Students scattered across the room and began working on top of tables and on the floor, passing around supplies and cutting pictures from magazines. Music added to the relaxed environment that encouraged creativity and expression.

Lunch and refreshments were also provided to those who attended. Participants took home a party favor as well, which were glass cups filled with candy.

Students had a wide range of different goals and ideas, but everyone came for the same reason: to promote their own success by aligning them-

selves to reach their goals.

“I came to this party to help myself actually see my visions for 2017 in order to make it easier and better.

Making this vision board has definitely been helpful,” freshmen Mary Williams said.

Students gained confidence and support at the vision board party learning new ways to concentrate on their future. For many, it relieved stress and gave them an opportunity to connect with their artistic abilities.

“I wanted to map out my goals and get a clear vision of where I plan on going and what things I plan on accomplishing,” sophomore Kie’Auntae Parsons said. "Actually putting it down on paper feels good.”

Making goals concrete through vision boards is a great way to start thinking about plans for the future and in promoting health and wellness, especially at the start of a new semester.

The committee also provides ally training to faculty, staff and students who want to better understand the LGBT community. Ritchie was the only staff member on the panel and co-chairs the committee outside of his duties in the Student Success Center.

The rest of the panel became more informal after the panelists spoke about their areas of expertise and provided resource information. Students asked questions about topics ranging from how to deal with complaints against staff to how to seek housing on the Spectrum Floor, LGBT centric housing on campus.

Inauguration Day:

The Religious Response Justin L.C. Ross Contributing Writer A time of transition has arrived for our nation with the presidency of Barack Obama ending and many Americans across the country, Monarchs included, are experiencing feelings of apprehension for the unforeseeable future. In this time of fear, however, an instance of unity and renewed hope in our future took place on campus on Jan. 19. Representatives from many cultures and faiths, including several denominations of Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism and Judaism, took the initiative to offer words of needed encouragement from their spiritual faith perspectives to an audience of intrigued Monarchs gathered together on Kaufman Mall.

“This event was made up of people of all faiths coming together to pray for this country, with this transition,” Father George Prado said, representing the Catholic faith.

This was indeed the case as the event progressed from the symposium structured around the

@maceandcrown

Monarch Creed, which States: “Make personal and academic integrity fundamental in all my endeavors.

Offer service to the University and the Community.

Nurture a climate of care, concern, and civility to others.

Accept responsibility for all my actions.

Respect the dignity, rights, and property for all people.

Commit to the ongoing pursuit of intellectual and personal development.

Heighten my awareness of individual and cultural similarities and differences.”

The sincerity of the message was refreshing to all present, especially after an emotionally charged presidential election, which has left many people with a feeling of divisiveness and hostility, instead of friendship and brotherhood as Americans.

Attendees were inspired by the message of hope that was delivered with such simplicity and conviction. The program ended with each faith offering a prayer for our country, for themselves and for each other.

Fatima Rivera Contributing Writer Being new to ODU can be a major adjustment for students who aren’t from Hampton Roads, or even for those who simply haven’t explored everything our campus has to offer. For those that have been here for awhile, perhaps you may need to find some new things to do. Luckily, our campus has many locations where anyone can go to relax or hang out, whether it be to enjoy an unusually warm spring day or just to forget the stress of classes.

Best Places to Relax: Whitehurst Beach: Although it is located on the further side of campus, Whitehurst Beach runs along the Elizabeth River, which gives it a relaxing vibe that comes with a great view.

There’s plenty of tables and benches at Whitehurst for you to relax at with a book or while having a picnic, and a pier that allows you to walk down and dip your feet in the water. There is also a volleyball court with sand and the Ranger Course Challenge, which was recently built and designed to be an outdoor gym alternative. There’s even a dog park right next door where residents and students with pets on campus can go. With all of this right

next to the water, it’s a good spot to relax after a long day, hang out with friends or even de-stress yourself with visiting dogs.

Rogers Hall Pier: Located next to the Rogers East complex, the pier is a small setting next to the river. It provides a place for you to sit and reflect on whatever problems that you have running through your mind. It’s also is a nice place to sit and relax with friends on a breezy day.

Brock Commons: The semi-stage located at the side of the village is a well-known place that anyone can hang out at throughout the day. The steps provide space for skating, performing, sketching, reading and everything else in-between. Beside the bridge is a fountain that can provide relaxing scenery and changes colors at night to provide a fun, party-like atmosphere.

Best Places for a First Date: Perfectly Frank: This upbeat restaurant is the perfect spot for a casual first date that falls within a college student’s budget. The theme is something akin to an ’80s throwback vibe with an open grill, a bar counter and milkshakes that come in many flavors. The place also has candy bars

@maceandcrown

and desserts that you can take on the go when you finish your meal.

Baron & Ellin Gordon Art Galleries: Located in The Village, the Galleries are a good place to go if you’re going for the somewhat-cliché art museum date. It features professionals and ODU alumni artists that have become well known both nationally and internationally. The theme changes occasionally, so there’s a wide range of artwork that is shown throughout the year. There’s no entrance fee for those with an ODU ID, so it’s an easy, free date for any ODU student.

Pho 79: Pho 79 is a Vietnamese restaurant in Ghent, located a few minutes from campus. The menu prices are fair and they serve a wide variety of dishes, including pho soup and bubble tea. The staff is friendly to clients and they have set up two large TVs that play sporting events to provide a casual atmosphere. Not only can it be great for a first date, but it’s also just a great place to eat out with friends before a night out in town.

Whether you’re looking for a study break, date-night spots or simply trying to find something new, these places are a great start in making the most of life on campus.

‘A Series of Unfortunate Events’ The Series We Deserved All Along Fatima Rivera Contributing Writer Like other Netflix originals, “A Series of Unfortunate Events” has proven to be an instant hit, which is something we’ve come to expect from the streaming media service. Based on the bestselling books that came out in the late ‘90s and early 2000s, the show captures every aspect and intricate details from author Lemony Snicket’s novels. The accuracy in scenery to the portrayal of the characters will not disappoint both old and new fans alike.

The children’s story, being documented by Snicket (Patrick Warburton), tells the story through a series of flashbacks and paused scenes allowing Snicket to explain every situation, further driving the plot of the story.

The series follows the story of the Baudelaire orphans, Violet (Malina Weissman), Klaus (Louis Hynes) and Sunny (Presley Smith). After their parents perish in a mysterious fire, the children are placed in the care of their “uncle,” Count Olaf. He becomes the main villain in the story and is played

by Neil Patrick Harris. When the children discover that Count Olaf is only after the enormous fortune left behind by their parents, they do everything they can to try to stop him.

Unfortunately, he escapes before the authorities can capture him.

Each episode finds the children

trying to escape the greedy clasp of Count Olaf. He disguises himself as a different person each time, fooling everyone in the story except for the children. Playing on the word “unfortunate” in the title, the cynical story consistently insists that it is a horrible tale to tell. The storyline doesn’t have a hard time keeping viewers on the edge of their seat with every episode.

The first season covers the first four

but to let younger viewers have some imagination as to what’s in the background.

There were concerns, however, about Warburton portraying Snicket due to his past films. He is wellknown for his comedic role as Kronk in “The Emperor’s New Groove,” which is a vastly different character than Snicket. Fortunately, Warburton nailed the role and was successful in giving his own flair to the author.

Another thing that has stood out to viewers is how the adults are portrayed throughout the series. They appear as incompetent, uncaring and even stupid, which infuriated many people. If anything, it sheds light on how many adults in real life treat children, such Courtesy Netflix as barely listening to them.

Donald Trump vs. Hollywood Kelsey Walker Arts & Entertainment Editor While there’s no doubt that the mainstream media played a role in the election of Donald Trump for president, those in Hollywood have never shied away from speaking their mind.

A day after the inauguration an estimated 8,000 protesters took to the streets in Park City, Utah on the third day of the Sundance Film Festival. Led by comedian Chelsea Handler, those among the crowd included John Legend, Charlize Theron, Kevin Bacon and Kristen Stewart. Legend held a Planned Parenthood sign reading, “We march for women’s rights.”

of America, it’s the most expensive thing we ever bought,” a shirtless, fictional Vladimir Putin said on the Jan. 21 episode of “Saturday Night Live.”

In December, Trump tweeted that “SNL” was “biased” and “totally unwatchable” following Alec Baldwin’s portrayal of the then President-elect in a skit that, coincidentally, mocked his use of Twitter.

He attempted to discredit Meryl Streep after her moving speech at the Golden Globes, calling her “over-rated” and further ranted on about the “dishonest media.”

It is often during periods of great civil unrest that artists of the world work tirelessly to express the voices of society. Despite his efforts to dis-

credit and silence Hollywood, the media and artists, Trump does not stand a chance. Actresses, comedians, painters, photographers, writers and others have already begun to use their platform to advocate human rights, and we can only expect to see more opposition over the next four years.

At this time, we must look to the artists of the world and mirror their courage and outspokenness. Even in the face of direct criticism from the president of the United States, the most powerful man in the world, they have not backed down.

Now, perhaps more than ever, we must remember that through activism and art, the voice of the people will never be silenced.

MONARCH STYLE Understanding French Style Kim Bering Staff Writer The French take style seriously. Although the typical Parisian façade exists through wearing a beret, a red striped shirt and a silk scarf, classic French style circulates around a few cardinal rules. Be simple, feminine and always très chic.

Coco Chanel, Yves Saint-Laurent, Brigitte Bardot and numerous other French fashion icons left an impermeable impression on the fashion world. Why are there so many fashionistas that come from France? Junior Moriah Morrison, an international studies student who traveled abroad to France, shared her observations on French style and why it stood out to her.

Morrison said that she found it to be, “more simple and clean cut.”

“I miss that. Everybody looked like a work of art.”

In order to achieve this, we must first understand the phrase, “less is more.” The French know that simplicity has a way of speaking volumes. Accessories are still existent, but they have a way of balancing lengths, colors and eclectic pieces. Whether they wear neutral colors with an occasional pop of a bright hue or a miniskirt for a night out, French women know how to balance their ensembles without too much extravagance.

“Even if they’re dressing up, they typically kept a balance,” Morrison said. “If they wore an exposing top, they would wear long pants.”

Another way of attaining the French style persona is to buy nicer quality pieces that are simple. That means we have to ditch Forever 21. Morrison noted that the French do not commonly break their bank on designer clothing. Rather, they shop middle of the road to buy nice quality pieces, along with some eclectic ones. Then it allows the items to be worn multiple times and for many various occasions.

Morrison also observed how even students dressed nicely for classes. No tennis shoes, hoodies or slouchy T-shirts. She noticed that almost everyone wore scarves or jackets, even when the weather did not permit one. They were primarily worn for fashion,

and were not dependent on weather. Not to say the French look like Vogue models on the regular, but even students always maintained a classy and collect ensemble.

What about colors? Overall, the French maintain a neutral color palette for multifunctional use. You can never go wrong with grays, blacks, nudes and whites. Former editor of Vogue, Carine Roitfeld, exemplifies this.

Commonly seen in neutrals and all black, Roitfeld is the epitome of a successful and chic French woman.

One last point to make: We need to comprehend what unspoken fashion is and how it is a key trait among these cultured Europeans. It exists though imperfect yet neat hair, expensive perfume that leaves a scent trail and cigarette smoke mixed with the pleasant aroma of fragrance.

Samar Youssef, a fabulous French fashion blogger of “Une libanaise à Paris,” uses smoking as a confident statement maker.

“I love the allure a smoking gives when we show up at a party,” Youssef said.

Now, what are a few key pieces to keep in your wardrobe to maintain that iconic French style? It’s simple. Get a few nice blouses, then find a pair or two of well-fitted jeans, preferably without rips. Flats come next, considering every French woman owns at least one pair of nice flats.

Then find a nice jacket or coat for style. Tousle your hair and spritz that perfume. Then, throw a designer bag over your shoulder to complete everything, and voila!

A classic French ensemble.

Dropkick Murphys

‘11 Short Stories of Pain & Glory’

Courtesy Born & Bred

There is no better cathartic release than good, loud rock music. Dropkick Murphys have always been a reassuring voice in times of trouble and this album is no different.

“11 Short Stories of Pain & Glory,” which dropped on Jan. 6, is everything a good rock album should be.

It’s brash, but collected. It’s an anthem for all badasses alike.

The hit single, “Blood,” is a unifying track. Bagpipes play alongside an equalizer with the harsh voices of the band. As they chant, “If you want blood / we’ll give you some,” the listener can’t help but feel included in whatever rampage the band is planning.

“11 Short Stories” centers not only around the good side of redemption, but also the bad side. The track “Rebels With a Cause” is a more empathetic track. The song is a sad look at how society treats those dealing with addictions or kids on the street. Lyrics such as, “Don’t be angry at the kids / be angry at the greed,” sum up the track.

“Paying My Way” captures the true essence of the album. The base, rock sound with the harmonica backbone gives way to an easy beat. As the group chants “I’m proud to be a fighter,” there’s just no better way to describe what the album is all about.

Dropkick Murphys aren’t shy when

it comes to politics. Solemn song “415-13” is a nod at the Boston Marathon bombing. A more aggressive track, “First Class Loser,” features a nameless bully and jerk one can’t help but compare to our new president.

Dropkick Murphys have the ability to take how they are feeling and turn it into a collected, well-layered piece of art. The Celtic-rock group are just people who have something to say and do what they need to make sure their message is heard. “11 Short Stories” reestablishes them as fabulous songwriters and even better story tellers.

Notable Tracks - “Paying My Way,” “Sandlot” and “4-15-13”

The XX ‘I See You’

Strange murmurs and indie-pop seem to easily describe the undefinable genre of The XX. The three members of the small band pack a punch with their emotional lyrics and cynical sound.

“I See You,” released on Jan. 13, gives the band a new, unguarded sound they have not shown before.

They have laid themselves out for consumption and it leaves an evocative undertone. The album is a collection of strange, yet inviting, noises.

Each song is sleek and has a new-wave millennial sound that enraptures the listener.

The tracks “Brave For You” and “Performance” showcase the heartbreak and honesty of the album.

Lead singer Romy Madley Croft croons about putting on a brave face

even during the hardest of times. She declares, “If I scream at the top of my lungs / will you hear what I don’t say?" on “Performance.”

Though neither Croft nor fellow lead singer, Oliver Sim, have any remarkable range, their consistent notes and pitches have the album sounding more like a conversation with the listener. Instead of singing to you, they are singing with you.

Hit single “On Hold” is one of the more upbeat songs off the album. It has the pop-synth vibe that is perfect for mainstream radio. The back and forth of Croft and Sim keep the song interesting, relatable and conversational.

The XX are a notoriously quiet band. They’re a bit dramatic and at times downright brooding, but

they’ve never been loud in terms of actual music. Lead track “Dangerous” changes all that by starting off with the piercing sound of horns. It quickly dissipates into a classic R&B sound but the horns keep up as a good backbone to the song.

Closing track “Test Me” is the perfect ending to the album. It starts with a simple piano and Croft carrying the vocals as she sings, “Test me / see if I will break.” Slowly, the song transforms into a dramatic mix of synth and bass. It’s one of the more in-depth tracks of the album, perhaps leaving the listener with the need to play the album over again.

Notable Tracks - “I Dare You,” “Performance,” and “Test Me.”

Run The Jewels ‘Run The Jewels 3’

Run The Jewels is one of those rare duos that seem to get better as they make more music. “Run The Jewels 3,” or “RTJ3,” has only shown strength and growth from the duo.

Killer Mike and EI-P have matured a lot since their last release in 2014. They’re more politically driven and now carry a cynical sound. The 14-track offering, released on Dec. 25, showcases their ability as wordsmiths in troubling times.

“RTJ3” is confident, perhaps even borderline arrogant, in the best way.

EI-P boasts, “We talk too loud, won’t remain in our places,” on “Everybody Stay Calm.”

Killer Mike spent a lot of the past couple of years being a political activist. He spent much of 2015 and early 2016 campaigning for Bernie Sanders. The results of the election obviously didn’t sit well with him as he raps, “He wore a bad toupee and a spray tan” on “Talk to Me.” “A Report to the Shareholders” is what really brings the album together.

“Not from the same part of town, but we both hear the same sound coming / and it sounds like war,” they rap.

It’s the ultimate warning of what’s to come.

“Thieves! (Screamed the Ghost)” keeps on with the political theme of

the album. “Can’t keep killing God’s children,” Killer Mike raps. The track is a Black Lives Matter anthem and even includes a vocal excerpt from Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. “RTJ3” is a callout for everyone not doing anything to help people who need it. The album is almost mocking in an “I told you so!” manner. The duo have a message, and it’s that everything is going to get pretty messy pretty fast if people don’t start paying attention.

Notable Tracks - “Talk to Me,” “Thieves! (Screamed the Ghost),” “A Report to the Shareholders/Kill Your Masters” and “Oh Mama.”

MONARCH MOVIE MINUTE Mind Blown

A Must See

Add to my Queue

TYLER PASSARGE STAFF WRITER Well, there goes 2 hours of my life

Straight to DVD

‘Anomalisia’

2015 | R | 90 min.

When watching a movie from Charlie Kaufman, viewers are submerged in a surrealist world of crisis and doubt in the self. In movies such as “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind,” characters dealt with issues like love and regret. In “Adaption,” the fear of mediocrity haunted Nicholas Cage’s character. Finally, in 2015’s “Anomalisia,” the audience is tasked to look through the eyes of a man going through a midlife crisis as well as disconnect from those around him.

Customer service representative, Michael Stone (David Thewlis), feels a deep depression that leaves him unable to connect with anyone around him. To Michael, everyone else in the

world (all voiced by Tom Noonan) just sounds the same. While on business in Cincinnati, Michael ends up transfixed with Lisa (Jennifer Jason Leigh) after being able to distinguish her voice.

Initially written by Kaufman as a sound play (a show made entirely of dialogue and sound effects), the story was eventually produced as a stopmotion animated movie after crowdfunding. The beautiful animation in the film allows viewers to experience the dim melancholy world of Michael in order to sympathize with the isolation he experiences day to day.

Aside from the unique visuals, the film also stands strong thanks to the

performances from Thewlis, Leigh and Noonan. Both the visuals and performances help give “Anomalisia” a raw and intimate feel that will leave the viewer mesmerized and enthralled. The film’s unconventional nature can be intense for some viewers, though, much like any Kaufman production.

With that being said, “Anomalisia” is an interesting and at times moving film about the beauty that comes with human connection, no matter how fleeting it may be.

This film is available on Amazon Prime.

‘I Am Not a Serial Killer’ 2016 | Unrated | 104 min.

Troubled teenager John Wayne Cleaver (Max Records) lives his life under a code. Diagnosed by his therapist as a sociopath, John tries to keep his homicidal tendencies at bay under a strict set of rules. These rules, along with consistent work at his family’s morgue, aids John in trying to be a normal high schooler.

John’s control over his desires is put to the test when a string of grisly, animal-like murders begin to plague his small hometown. Things are only heightened when he suspects his elderly neighbor (Christopher Lloyd) might be involved in some way. For

John, curiosity begins to turn into obsession as he begins to uncover the bizarre revelations behind the string of killings.

Always clouded with a sense of dread, “I am not a Serial Killer” is a tense, creepy and at times humorous murder mystery. Much of the sarcastic charisma that bubbles throughout the movie comes from Max Records, who successfully carries the movie.

Through Records' character, the audience is hurled into the mind of a potential killer.

Director Billy O’Brien embarks with his audience through scenes

of effective and dark imagery that’s accompanied by an even more eerily effective score. This is a film that constantly finds itself subverting expectations, which only heighten the sense of danger. That danger in question is embodied by Christopher Lloyd, who delivers a bone-chilling performance.

Crafted with suspenseful directing and a gifted cast, “I Am Not a Serial Killer” is a tense and slow burn thriller that hooks in the viewer from minute one.

This film is available on Netflix.

‘Yoga Hosers’

2016 | PG-13 | 88 min.

When writer/director Kevin Smith first popped onto the scene with “Clerks” in 1994, he gave a new name to independent filmmakers. On shoestring budgets, Smith has consistently made successful cult movies, such as “Mall Rats” and “Chasing Amy” that resonate with audiences even to this day. That said, it’s almost baffling to imagine why he chose “Yoga Hosers” as the next title in his filmography.

Serving as a spin-off to Smith’s 2014 horror “Tusk,” the film follows the Colleens (Lily-Rose Depp and Harley Quinn Smith), two smartmouthed Canadian teenage girls.

Why Canadian, you may ask? So Smith can supplement his barebones script with tired Canadian jokes, like how Canadians tend to say “Aboot” and “Ehh” a lot.

When the girls aren’t practicing in their band or doing yoga, they are stuck working as clerks at a 7-Eleven knock-off store owned by one of the girl’s father. Trouble brews for the girls when they are tasked with fighting small bratwurst-shaped Canadian Nazis bent on world domination. No, really, that’s the actual plot to “Yoga Hosers.”

It’s obvious that Smith is trying to

go for B-level horror genre with his film, but his attempt at this kind of movie is both sad and embarrassing for a director of his notoriety. The film’s two leads (daughters of both director Smith and actor Johnny Depp) are charismatic and do what they can with the lackluster script. Whatever acting careers they have in the future will not come from their work here.

A low point in Kevin Smith’s career, “Yoga Hosers” is an unfocused mess of a film that goes out of its way to alienate its audience.

This film is available on Netflix.

49ers Outlast Lady Monarchs on Military Appreciation Day Harry Howard Jr. Sports Editor

On Miltary Appreciation Day at The Ted, the Lady Monarchs came up short against the first place Charlotte 49ers 86-75. Early in the fourth quarter, ODU cut the lead to 60-58 with 7:37 left and that was as close as they would get. Charlotte countered with an 8-0 run to regain control of the game and would lead by double figures until the final buzzer sounded.

"We fought hard, but we came

up short. We worked in practice all week on transition defense and the little things and again it was just a few things we didn't capitalize on or let them have possession back. We'll look back on film and say all we had to do was take care of the ball," ODU head coach Karen Barefoot said.

ODU (8-10, C-USA 3-4) shot just 39.7 percent from the field while Charlotte (14-6, C-USA 6-1) shot 47.5 percent from the field and were lights out from behind the arc shooting 50 percent.

Monarchs Lose

Heartbreaker Harry Howard Jr. Sports Editor

With the game clock winding down, Charlotte guard Jon Davis hit the game-winning jump shot with 0.2 seconds left on the clock to defeat the Monarchs 74-72. The game winner was suiting for a game that went back and forth throughout. There were 17 lead changes and 10 ties in the contest.

Davis led all scorers in the contest with 35 points shooting 11-19 from the field.

“Jon Davis was really good tonight.

I did think we played hard, we just made too many mistakes to overcome. We need to learn from this and we have to play smarter. This is a tough one,” ODU head coach Jeff Jones said.

Already without starting forward Brandan Stith, the Monarchs (11-8, Conference USA 4-3) lost another starter in guard Jordan Baker with 4:13 left in the first half. Baker was ejected after a battle for a loose ball turned shoving match with Char-

lotte's (9-9, Conference USA 3-4) Anthony Van Hook, and Andrien White who were also tossed from the game.

Before his ejection, Baker made 3 of 4 three-pointers.

Sophomore Ahmad Caver had one of his best games of his ODU career with 25 points, five assists, five rebounds, one block and a steal. Zoran Talley was the only other Monarch to reach double figures with 16 points and a career-high 12 rebounds.

The Monarchs season-long free throw woes continued as they were only able to make 2 of 5 free throws in the final 2:35. Talley had an opportunity to give ODU the lead with 29 seconds left. He was fouled and went to the free throw line but was only able to make 1-2 at the line.

Charlotte only held the lead for 6:54 of the game that the Monarchs have to be kicking themselves for losing. ODU edged out the 49ers in rebounding 43-26, second chance points 14-2 and bench points 22-12.

ODU will be back in action on Jan. 26 in another Conference USA matchup against Rice.

hood where he played first base for New York Military academy. In the 1980’s he owned a professional football team in the USFL before the league dissolved and in 2014, Trump attempted to buy the Buffalo Bills which may have stopped him from running for president.

“I’m glad I lost because if I bought the Buffalo Bills. I probably would not be running for president, which is much more important,” Trump said Sports Illustrated after a losing bid for the Bills.

Technology What the New President Means for Technology Ross Reelachart Technology Editor The arrival of a new president frequently heralds a shift in policy to go along with a shift in administration.

With President Trump taking office, the shift will be massive in all areas and the tech world is no exception.

From the mind of a businessman who hires other business people to push business-minded agendas, the new policies regarding the technology and communications world will be one that favors corporations and executives.

The fight for net neutrality will take a significant loss with the new administration, which seeks to guide whatever net neutrality rules the Democrat-led FCC attempted to set into place during the Obama administration. The incoming team reportedly wants to “remake” the FCC in a way that would strip it of its role to oversee competition and consumer protection. In other words, the new Republican-led FCC would be of the de-regulated kind that would let telecom companies

carve out non-competition agreements, throttle consumer internet speeds and generally charge customers more for less.

The digital world isn’t the only place that will see a major shift in policy under the new administration. The actual natural world will, as could be expected, be cast aside under and administration that also seeks to strip down environmental standards, including the Endangered Species Act. Granted, some of the issues lodged against the act are somewhat substantiated by its use in protecting species that are only endangered in a single area or state. On the other hand, it’s also disliked by oil and gas companies for not letting them drill and mine.

Most changes in policy are of the familiar deregulatory flavor. While there are arguments to be had regarding government overreach and states’ rights, it’s also reasonable to assume that a giant telecom company or an oil conglomerate will not have the consumers’ best interests in mind.

TECH IN A SEC CIA Releases Declassified Files Online for Browsing Nearly 50 years worth of declassified documents from the CIA are now freely available for viewing on the CIA website. Previously, CIA secrets more than 25 years old and of “historical” value were to be declassified in 1995 by order of former President Bill Clinton.

But the documents were only “available” at four computers in the National Archives. Now the online database CREST (CIA Records Search Tool) is usable by anyone with an internet connection.

Gabe Newell of Valve Answers All President of Valve Software Gabe Newell conducted a live “Ask Me Anything” on Reddit. He revealed that Valve is currently working on “fully-fledged single player games,” though he was coy in associating it with Valve’s Half-Life series. From most of the answers given, it seemed that Valve is currently focused on VR-centric games and an accessory called a “knuckles controller” for VR. Tesla to Invest in Gigafactory Electric car manufacturer Tesla announced that it will be investing $350 million in its Nevada “Gigafactory.” Tesla also plans to hire 500 workers in a move to ramp-up production on drivetrains for its new Model 3 electric car, which begins full production sometime in mid-2017. The Gigafactory is the center of Tesla’s battery production for its electric cars, which opened in 2016.

Japanese Manufacturers Standardize Super Toilets As Japan prepares to host the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, the nine companies that comprise Japan’s Sanitary Equipment Industry Association announced that they would be standardizing the buttons and icons on their high-tech toilets. The eight functions include lid control, flush size and bidet control. These functions will be in addition to other features that will be available to tourists and visitors during the games.

Nintendo: Next Console Detailed at Presentation to be shared. The Nintendo Switch will no longer feature region locking, meaning players will be able to buy and play games from outside the area the system was initially purchased in.

Nintendo also announced that their online services will become subscription-based later this year. According to Nintendo's website, there will be a free trial period beginning in March. Paid services will not begin until the fall. Players who subscribe will be able to voice chat with others through an external app and download an NES or SNES game once a month among other features. The subscription service will only affect Nintendo Switch’s online play. Those who want to play online on a Wii U or 3DS will still be able to play for free.

It will come packaged with two Joy-Con controllers. These controllers feature motion sensing so they can detect the location of your hands when placed in front of the controller. They also feature an “enhanced” vibration feature called HD Rumble.

Numerous games were announced during the presentation as well. “Xenoblade Chronicles 2” and “Fire Emblem Warriors” were two of the games previewed at the event, though no release dates were given. “Arms” is a fighting game using the Joy-Con controllers to try and land punches on your opponents. The game can

be played solo or split screen with a friend, but online capabilities are in the works. It is slated for a Spring 2017 launch.

“Splatoon 2,” the sequel to the hit Wii U title, will be coming to the Switch. It features more modes, weapons and maps. The game will be able to be played online or face to face with friends. It is slated for a Summer 2017 release.

The next Mario game will be “Super Mario Odyssey,” which takes Mario into the real world. The trailer shows him traveling around notable real world locations such as New York City. Mario’s cap is also noted to play a role in his journey. The game is slated for a Holiday 2017 release.

Outside of the games Nintendo is working on, there are 50 developers working on 80 games for the Switch.

SEGA announced they have plans to launch a game on Nintendo’s newest system. Bethseda has also announced that they plan to release “Skyrim” on the Switch. EA said that they were planning to release FIFA for the system and the game is being custom built for the console.

The Nintendo Switch will be sold for $299.99 at launch. It will come in two versions: all grey or grey with neon red and neon blue Joy-con controllers.

A new year brings on a whole world of new technology. The Consumer Electronics Show, which was held Jan. 3-8 in Las Vegas, brought many tech companies together to display the latest technological innovations. From kid-friendly technology to the latest computers, CES 2017 had it all.

The Rapael Smart Glove from Neofect is being launched as a rental for those looking to use it outside of hospitals, according to CNN. It’s a “high-tech rehab device” used for hand training.

Currently, the glove is only available to hospitals and rehab centers within Europe, the U.S. and Asia, but it can be rented for $99 a month alongside its Android tablet companion. By tracking the user’s play time and progress through an app, doctors and patients can see how the glove helps them. The app will also be made available for Android users without the glove.

For gamers, Retro-Bit is picking up off of the success from the re-release of the NES to launch a retro Game Boy, according to Gizmodo. The system looks

almost exactly like an old school Game Boy, but Retro-Bit’s version has two additional buttons below the A and B buttons. It will play all previous Game Boy, Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance games. The retro Game Boy launches in August with an $80 price tag.

Razer is planning a gigantic gaming laptop with three screens, according to TechRadar. “Each of the three displays is a 17.3 inch IGZO panel with 4K resolution,” TechRadar said. The laptop, dubbed "Project Valerie," doesn’t have many details released about it just yet. All that is known is that it’ll come equipped with a GeForce GTX 1080 graphics card and that it’s expected to be around 38 mm thick and 5.5 kg.

Project Valerie is only a concept right now, so there’s no information on a launch date just yet.

LEGO is working on creating new toys to help kids learn how to code, according to CNN. The LEGO Boost kit carries off of the success of other similar kits. This one allows kids to build models with the help of sensors and motors. Kids can build one of five models, and then move that model

around using the Move Hub packaged in the kit. An app, which is required for download, will allow kids to add voice recordings to their models and play with 60 coding activities. It will be released later this year for $160.

Samsung is trying to move on from their explosive Galaxy Note 7 and washing machine issues of 2016.

With their new Chromebooks, users will be able to run apps from Google’s Play Store, according to CNN. The Chromebook Plus and Chromebook Pro will function as both tablets and laptops and they will feature stylus support. The Chromebook Plus launches in February with a $499 price tag and the Chromebook Pro will be released in the spring, though a price hasn’t been announced yet. In addition to their Chromebooks, Samsung announced their first gaming laptop, the Notebook Odyssey, among other products such as new TVs, washer and dryer sets and kitchen appliances.

These are just a few examples of the new products shown at this year’s event.

It’s clear that 2017 will be an innovative and great year for tech producers.

Audra Reigle Assistant Technology Editor Staying up late on Jan. 12 made the wait worthwhile as Nintendo held its presentation on the Nintendo Switch.

The presentation detailed the latest console, which was revealed in October. The 11 p.m. EST presentation provided viewers with information on the Nintendo Switch, new games and their developers.

The Nintendo Switch inherits concepts from each of Nintendo’s past systems. It acts as both a home system and a portable system. Games can be played in one of three ways. The first is the standard mode, which involves hooking it up to a television and playing the system like a typical console.

The second is “tabletop mode,” which allows the player to set the system up on a kickstand and play with the JoyCon controllers. The handheld mode has the Joy-Con controllers attached to the system to play games on the go.

It will have a battery life of 2 1/2 to 6 1/2 hours and can be played while charging.

The system will have a touch screen and Wi-Fi compatibility. Up to eight systems can be connected locally. It will also be compatible with amiibo figures. Players will be able to capture pictures to share on social media, and in the future, videos will also be able

Using Your Voice During Turbulent Times Zach Moeller Copy Editor No one can deny that we live in turbulent, uncertain times. After so much progress, the election of President Trump seems like a giant step backwards to many. A lot of minorities in the U.S. are scared that the progress they've fought to secure is going to be wiped away, and they are right to be worried. What people forget to remember, though, is that there is still hope.

In the face of potential oppression,

it is important to remember that resistance is crucial. Peaceful resistance can take any form from marching through the streets to making music.

Any form of expression is an acceptable way to fight what you believe is wrong.

Everyone is entitled to their own political opinion, and regardless of who you voted for, thank you for carrying out your civic duty by doing so.

With that being said, we as a people will not and can not allow bigotry and anger in our country. We are better than that.

Now is as great a time as ever to fight the changing tide in our nation.

As ways that we all thought were dead and gone start to re-emerge (white supremacy, racism, sexism etc.), it is important to band together and show that our country is one that will not tolerate hate and oppression.

Exercise your First Amendment right to free speech. It's one of the greatest gifts you can ask for. If you're an artist, create. If you're a writer, write. If you're a musician, make music. Not all forms of protest have to be traditional. Support journalists. We

Everything is blue, and there’s a chill in the air that makes it hard to breathe and renders her incapable of making a sound. Suspended in darkened space, she looks about desperately for the hands that dragged her into the wall, into this place, but finds nothing. The chill climbs up her arms and legs like snakes, making her whole body feel as though something is crawling on it. She’s kicking her legs and flailing her arms, trying to ease the creepy-crawly feel of her skin, when suddenly— “I see you.” The words are whis-

There is no need to "Make America Great Again." It is the mixture of many cultures and peoples in our land that have already made America great, and it is only going to get better.

I leave you with these reminders: If you are afraid, you are not alone. If you are upset with this shift of power, resist by any peaceful means. Times of turmoil create beautiful art, so contribute what you can. Lastly, remember that love trumps hate. Always.

are here to serve you. Read often from multiple news sources. Stay educated with political happenings. Don't let the passion we are feeling now die.

And, don't give in to fear.

As we have seen with the women's marches around our nation, there is strength in numbers and more importantly, there is an outpouring of love and support for all of our fellow citizens. To our black friends, we love you. To our Muslim friends, we love you. To our LGBT friends, we love you. America is a melting pot, and that's what makes our country great.

pered into her ear with that same icy croak, and it echoes about the space.

Danni tries to scream, but no sound comes out.

“Do you see me?”

Danni gasps as a terrifying figure materializes before her. Clothed in a thick black cloak, it’s the man she saw chopping firewood before she was pulled into the wall, only underneath his hood, his face is paler and the dead patches of his face are made uglier by the blue. She kicks and flails, and her face contorts as she tries and fails to scream as the figure glides towards her, his head cocked to the side and his jaw slacked and eyes dull and cloudy. When his face is merely inches from hers, Danni becomes paralyzed, frozen in place and unable to do anything more than dart her eyes across his hideous face. The

dead skin peeling off his face flaps in time with the thing’s breath, which is void of smell but so like death in its cold lifelessness that it’s impossible not to assign a certain foulness to it.

“See me,” the man slowly whispers. He raises a hand, which is streaked in blood, to caress Danni’s face. “Help—“ “Danni!”

The man stops suddenly, startled by a dim echo sounding far away.

A yellow light forms and builds in intensity, and the same thin elastic Danni was pulled into begins to appear and warp. Suddenly, a small, childlike hand breaks through.

“Danni, grab my hand! Quick!”

It’s Cat Pack’s voice. The floating dead man is gone, and Danni is able to reach out and grab onto Cat Pack’s hand. He pulls her through

the rubbery elastic and she pops out the other side onto the floor of her bedroom, unsettled but unscathed.

“Are you alright?” Cat Pack is staring down at her, breathing heavily and grasping his book tightly under one arm. Hesitantly, Danni nods, relishing in how easily air enters and leaves her lungs.

“How did you find me?” Danni asks, letting Cat Pack help her to her feet. “What was that? What just happened?”

“The ghost,” Cat Pack says simply, and holds up his book. “When you said the ghost didn’t come last night, I knew something was wrong.

Ghosts don’t break their patterns unless they’re up to something.”

“So that, that man, that thing—it was a ghost?”

“Mr. Lordsman,” Cat Pack says,

nodding. “He lived in this house a long time ago. Rumor has it that he used to lure people here and murder them, but one of his schemes went wrong, and that’s how he—“ “No offense but I really don’t want a history lesson,” Danni says, crawling away from the wall to sit on the floor by her bed.

“Are you sure you’re okay?”

“No, not really! I just . . .” Danni says. “Thank you for helping me. I think I just need some time to catch my breath.”

“Okay.” Cat Pack, for once, has lost the smug look on his face, and looks genuinely worried and a little shell-shocked.

“Has anything like this ever happened before?” asks Danni.

“Never,” Cat Pack replies.
