Pedestrian death spurs investigation of the crosswalk timing Tbe Metropolitan

As the result of the fatal pedestrian/car accident at the intersection of Colfax Avenue and Lipan Street, an investigation is being conducted by the city of 路Denver regarding crosswajk timing 'The investigation will take about two weeks," Tracy Weiler, staff traffic sign engineer for the city of Denver said. Weiler said the intersection signal timing was set in 1995 and the department would be happy to investigate. RTD commuters and pedestrians on the scene expressed concern at how little time there was to cross Colfax Avenue.

''I'd rather not cross here. It's too dangerous and there is just not enough time," said Martin Pere-z, a 26-year-old Community College of Denver student. "I get stuck in the median most of the time." According to Weiler, traffic crosswalk times are set by measuring the distance from curl> to curl> and dividing that number by four feet per second, which is the average time it takes for a person to walk four feet. "The lead time at all crysswalks in Denver is a minimum of four seconds, that's when you see the little white guy. When he actually starts flashing is when the timing begins," she said. The signal to cross Colfax Avenue has a four second lead time

with a 15 second walk time for a total of 19 seconds. Lipan St. has a 10 second lead time with a 35 second walk time. Weiler said whenever the department receives a call or complaint it is standard for the intersection to be investigated and that a written report will be documented and a copy sent to the caller. "If the measurement is wrong, it is a slam-Ounk and we'll change the timing right away. We will also check into the leftlane turn signal timing. There are ways to make it a little safer for pedestrians," Weiler said.

sooner we get your orders, the sooner we can begin the search for used books. When we know what books are going to be used for more than one term, students get the best return when they sell them back. If we don't have the necessary order information, the best we can do is offer students a price that is set by a used book distributor based on supply and demand at other campuses. More importantly, we won't have as many used books for our students next semester.

I I

Early orders avoid the problem of out of stock textbooks. This year we have the Y2K bug to worry about. Although publishers assured us they are on track, they were not certain about binderies or shipping companies. If we can get all our orders in early, we can avoid those potential problems.

She developed programs to help small towns create community centers and projects to give teens in small towns something to do besides get into trouble. Trent discussed the risks of becoming an activist in America. She said her activism has made her unpopular with the Government and the FBI. As a result of an intensive FBI investigation during the seventies, which led to a grand jury indictment of Trent, she and her son had to move from Illinois to California. The charges turned out to be trivial, but as a result Trent learned that when people take a stand against powerful individuals, the risks are immense. Nevertheless, she continued with her activism helping those who don't have a voice to be heard.

SGA vice president calls it quits after five months, applications being taken to fill the open position By lmtiaz Hopkins Tbe Metropolitan

Ftve months after taking office, Chuck Dugan, vice president of administration and finance with the Student Government Assembly is resigning. "It has become frustrating," Dugan said. This comes one week after he submitted a letter to The Metropolitan stating that he will resign Dec. 31. Dugan said the letter came from his heart. In the letter, he said that his heart and soul were no longer in his actions as a vice president.

"I've grown a lot and I've done what I can," he said. Dugan said that he was disappointed in the direction that SGA was heading. He also felt that SGA y.ras making some unhealthy financial decisions. The letter echoes that he felt SGA was not taking its business seriously. "They don't want to be held accountable for their actions," Dugan said. SGA president Jennifer Darnell said that Dugan's position was a lot to handle and hard to balance, and you have to be passionate about it.

"He's really good in his position," Darnell said. ''This is a bump in the road and we will overcome." SGA is now taking applications to fill this position. Darnell said that the applicants. will go through the interview process and when she finds the right one she will get feedback from the other members. "I will not appoint someone until I have feedback from everyone," Darnell said. Interested students should stop by the Student Government office in Tivoli 307.

Because the newspapers were all taken, many people did not get their weekly news, information and opinion pieces.. For example, there was a story about the Colorado State Legislature's new measurements of Metro's academic success. They could hurt the college financially. There was a story about a man who was killed in an accident at Colfax Avenue and Lipan Street. This story provided students with information about the dangerous intersection.

The reporters did not have to go into detail and make the scene of the accident something to be'gloating about. It is sad to realize that our student newspaper does not have the decency or

class to report on a tragedy without turning it into a gory article. In the future, we ask the reporters and editors to have a little more consideration for victims and the family of the victims when reporting a story.

Golden Key Honor society worth striving for On Nov. 19, the Metro chapter of Golden Key National Honor Society will be holding their annual induction ceremony. The myth about Golden Key is that it tends to be an elitist organization, however I have found that the opposite is true. During the past few months I have had the opportunity to get to know the organization and what its philosophy is all about. Golden Key not only promotes excellence in academics, but also in community involvement. During the fall semester, focus is maintained on community

building with participation in programs like Habitat on Humanity, 9Cares, Colorado Shares and the Colorado AIDS Walk. During the spring the organization focuses on activities that promote academics. This is when scholarships are awarded and conferenct! are held. I recently attended a cookout sponsored by the chapter, titled "What's cookin' at Golden Key." This was an excellent opportunity to get to know exceptional students and faculty members around campus. I also had the opportunity to discuss Golden Key with

Chapter Consultant, Liane Soukup, and the Assistant Director of Chapter Development, Sandy Reinsch. To be eligible for Golden Key, you must be in the top 15 percent of your class and have junior or senior status. Membership is by invitation only and benefits include academic recognition, career assistance and leadership opportunities. In my opinion, Golden Key is definitely worth striving for. - jennifer Darnell SCA President

Students at Auraria can de-stress, relax and rejuvenate in free yoga classes. Offered as part of an outreach program by the Student Health Center, the classes are part of Healthy Moves for Ftall 1999, a program offering a form of relaxation exercise once a week, said Llnda Wilkins-Pierce, health educator. Hatha yoga is what most Westerners think of when they hear the word yoga. The physical postures or asanas of hatha yoga are just a small part of yoga. The asanas are a good place to begin, said Pat Hansen who has taught yoga at Metro for 20 years. Hansen started the hatha yoga class with Tadasana, or mountain pose, a seemingly simple standing pose. She first had the students bring their awareness to their feet. Then she worked upward, centering and aligning the body. Realigning the body readjusts the attitude, which is a posture of the mind, she said. "The weight of the body belongs over the arch," she said, "be conscious of it all day, at the bank standing in line, at the store and waiting for the bus." Too m1,1ch weight on the heels creates an imbalance, contributing to TMJ. TMJ is a common jaw problem caused when the jaw muscles tighten in an effort to correct the imbalance, she said. just practicing Tadasana faithfully, she said, can help problems as diverse as fallen arches,

bunions, bad knees, headaches, digestion and elimination. Yoga develops our prana, a Sanskrit word for "life force," Hansen said. There is no Western word for prana, but it is the same as the Chinese chi. Prana, she said is not molecular or atomic, but a force beyond that. The breath controls the flow of prana through the body. The mind controls the body, but the breath controls the mind, she said. Movement in the postures is coordinated with the breath. Hansen urged the students to breathe all the way down to the tips of their toes, but through the nose only. Mouth-breathing increases mucus, over-stimulates the adrenal glands and By Annie Prevost causes weight gain, she said. As the students learned Cobra pose, which is done on the stomach, Hansen explained that they were toning their organs and glands from the inside out, squeezing out toxins stored in the tissues. Practicing yoga empowers a person to learn how to care for his/her body and mind, said

Metro~ . Women advance to RMAC tournament NcMlnbel 5, 1999

1be Metropolitan 15

By Nick Gamer 7be Metropolitan

The situation is the same, but the setting will be different. The Metro women's soccer team is back in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference tournament for the second year in a row. They finished the regular season with a 13-6, 8-4 RMAC record. The Roadrunners squeaked into the RMAC tournament as the third seed. Instead of traveling to Grand Junction like last year, the Roadrunners will be closer to home. They will travel to nearby Regis and will be able to have most of their fans at the game. '1JI the parents said that we had to win Sunday," said senior midfielder Kari Pierce. "If we didn't win, most of the parents could not make it down to Fort Lewis, so it would have been us versus them and their rans." Al Regis, the Roadrunners will not have to worry about traveling for six hours in a van to Grand Junction. "We knew what we had to do, and that was win this game," said junior midfielder Janice Annstrong. ''This game was more important than the last time we played them because we didn't want to have to drive back down there this weekend. ~wanted either us or Regis to host." Metro will open the RMAC tournament against Fort Lewis Nov. 5 at 1:30 p.m. The Roadrunners faced them just a week ago and won in overtime, 2-1. The winning goal was an own goal, with credit given to Pierce, in the extra period. , With the victory, the Roadrunners avenged a 2-1 loss earlier in the season to Fort Lewis at the Auraria Fields. "There was more on the line for us this time," said coach Ed Montojo. "We wanted to make a statement to them (Fort Lewis) early on." Both teams have highly explosive offenses, boasting four of the RMAC's top 10 scoring ~

leaders.

·,

Fort Lewis is lead by Carisa Bradford, who leads the conference with 36 total points. The Roadrunners counter with the trio of Pierce, Armstrong and senior Tarena O'Neill. The three have combined to score 80 points, the most for any scoring trio in the conference. On defense, Fort Lewis and Metro have two of the best keepers in the RMAC. For the Roadrunners, senior goalkeeper Kelly Johannes was the best in the conference during the regular season. She allowed 14 goals past her all season, recorded 40 saves and h;td a conference low 1.06 goals against average. The Skyhawks' goalkeeper is the third best in the RMAC. Charlori Cotter has recorded 102 saves in the regular season, four shutouts and a 1.41 goals against average. This will be a game of who can outscore the other team, which is something the Roadrunners can do. If the Roadrunners pass Fort Lewis, they will meet up with Regis in the championship game. In Regis' case, they hope that Fort Lewis can beat Metro. The Rangers have dominated Skyhawks all season, winning both games convincingly 3-1 and 4-1. The Rangers don't want to face Metro in the championship game because in both

Sportsbrieft "Metro Madness" hits campus Nov. 9 Meeting the Metro men's and women's basketball teams, winning $10,000 and eating free food is one way you could spend Nov. 9. Nov. 9 is the day the Roadrunners are hosting "Metro Madness" in the Auraria Events Center. The event, from 12:15 p.m. to 1 p.m., will include free food, contests and prizes, including a shot at Sl0,000. ' Free food will be served from the concession stand in the Auraria Events Center after the contests, which include the 'J\irplane Tos.s" and "Pick-a-spot-shot." Both offer cash prizes, $20 for the ''.ljrplane Tos.s" and Sl0,000 for the "Pick-a-spot-shot." The name of one "Metro Madnes.s" attendant will be drawn to participate in the "Pick-a-spotshot" contest. That person can choose one spot on the court to shoot from. If the first basket is made, then from the very same spot the person must make the basket at the other end of the court. If the contestant makes both shots, the $10,000 is theirs, said Brent Rhodes, development and marketing director for the Athletics Department.

Student Athletes honored by department Four Metro athletes recently received Athlete-of-the-Month honors from the Athletics Department. Seniors Kari Pierce and Jared Zanon were named the Athletes-of-the-Month for September. Pierce has 11 goals, 13 assists and 35 points this season. Both the assists and points are a team high. Zanon also leads the men's team in two offensive categories. His-seven goals and 18 points are a team best. ?.anon has four assists on the season. Senior Chris Brink and freshman Edouard von Herberstein earned the athlete honors from the Athletics Department for October. Brink leads the Roadrunner volleyball team with 18 solo blocks and 91 total. ~he also has 299 kills on the season, which is second on the team. Von Herberstein qualified for the NCAA Nationals in the 200 butterfly in the Roadrunners' first meet of the season. He also finished first in the 1650 freestyle at the Colorado State University Early Bird Invitational with a time of 16:41.80.

"If we do win the RMAC and advance on to the NCAA, it's bittersweet," Armstrong said. "But anytime you can beat Regis, that is very bittersweet." For Pierce, it would be disappointing to walk away from Regis without the RMAC title. "Everyone knows that we have the ability to win," Pierce said '~d if we lose, we know that we lost it ourselves. We need to play like we know how to."
