resumes lightroilservice RTD solves uniondispute;

By Tim Esterdahl testerda@mscd.edu The approval of a union contract put the Regional Transportation District back in service April 10, sgnaling an end to the mass transportation oroblems of manv students.

Stndents had received support from the Metro administration conceming rnissed attendance as regional buses and hght rail were shut oown. @Metro reported in an e-mail April 3, that the Office of Academic Affairs acknowledged the strike wot d have an imDact on class attendance and that faculty shJdd discuss what could be done to accommodate sbrdents who were a-ffected.

Besides attendance, parking became an issue as many lots overllowed. The Auraria Parking and Transportation Service hied to help shrdentsby lowering the price of parking in the Tivoli Auraria Parking Structure down to $3.75 per day rather than the usual $5.

The sih-rationbegan on April 3 when members of the Amalgarnated Transit Union Local

1001voted to strike by a margin of 55 percenl At issue was a $1.80 per hour pay raise, which was dubbed the largestpay increasein the agency's history. RTD warted to phase it in over a three-year period, but the workers wanted it all at once.

"It's verv obviouslv a substantial and fair offer," said RTD spokeiman Scott Reed told the Rukv Mruntain News.

RTD changed the offer on April 7 gttitg workers $1,040 for the first year, which is up from rhe previously offered $780. This change will also mean thal at the end of the three years, the total increase will be $6,032, compared to the rejected $6,084. Simply puq the workers ap proved rnore money up fron! despite gesing lessmoney in the end.

Union workers voted to approve the new contract by 82 percent late April 7 and the l,t member RTD board of directon voted unanimously the next moming.

Along with the raise, RTD will pay $20 more to each employee's insurance plan.

RTD has 1,700 worken and provides 225,000routes per day.

Apples and grapesaid pears, oh mJr!

-

I spent the weekend in Pueblo, my hometown. On my way back to Denver I stopped at a Starbucks and picked up a hot Passion:TazoTea. Venti, of course.

"Holn- Comoesta?" asked the barista via intercom.

"Bien!" I responded.

Tmth be told I wasn't anything near bien. You see. for the better oart of three weeks.I've been romanticallvinvolved with r.lro"l bottl.. of NyQuil ulta l"yqot I have a cold I just can't shake. The coughing is amoying and unconhollable. The tea helps, though.

But I couldnt help but roll with the punches and with such an untypical greeting at the luppie coffee conglomerate, I had to give an rm-tlpical response. I'm pre6y sure the barista was expecting me to stutter and answer "fine." Or "I don't know."

Truth be told, the extent of my Spanishspeaking skills is about equal to the talent of Bushls skills winning the war in kaq.

But you ask, "Isn't your last narne Garcra?Ddn't you grow up m fueblo?" ,Sr'.

But when my great€reat€reat gnnd pa.renb move here from Mexico, Germann France, Italy and Yugoslavia they all wanted their family to be "Americans.'And no selfrespecting American would speak anything but English. So, they taught their children the language. Luckiln some of them also picked up bits and pieces of their parent's native tongue. But their children leamed Er€lish. And so did their childrerls children. And so did I. While I was growing up, the most "Mexican" thing I did was btt a pinnta and eat Grandma's green chili. Growing up, I de spised all things uMexican"---especiallymariachi bands.

The rest of my ethnic makeup took a back seat as well. It was easyfor my frmilies

NIC GARCT{ rwarcZ@tnruleda to dismisstheir own heritage and createnew taditions based on other ideas from other cultures. Especially in a place like Pueblo, a city that welcomed all imrnigrants during the early sdtder days. The Polish, the Irish, the ltalian, the Mexicans, the Spaniards, the Slavic all made Rreblo their home. So today my Slavicpuro" family eatstamales and my "Mexican" family eats lotic a-a sweetbread-at Christmas.

Perhaps Pueblo is the quintessential melting pot The American ideal: a blend ing of cultures, a place for everyone.

But I've been chealed. Instead of embracing a culhre that is rightfully rnine, I look down upon it. Dare I say: I hate it?

When I was a young lad, I asked my grandma to stop calling me itb. In middle school, I was asked to write an essayabout how oroud I was tn be a lathw. Or mavbe it rras lio* proud I was tobe a chitaw?' l,ike I know the difference. And in the end, I copped out and said I really liked Mexican food.

This is dre reason whv. todav. I relish in tle gay culture. This is rhe rea.ion I forbid you to forget the fact lm a gay rnale. This

is why I bleed gliner and my heart beats techno music. This is why when someone tells me I'n too gay, I thank them. This is the reason whn my children-if I dare such a feat-will know they have two fathen. And their children will have three srandfathers.

And we will all be proud aboui itThis is ihe reasonI don't want the U.S. to be a melting pol bul rather, a fruit salad.

Pardon the puq and hang on, but I beg the question, what happens when you melt different types of shiny metal together (or anything for that mauer)? It turns into something hideous. Gray. No longer can you tell where one thing begins and another ends. The distinctive characteristicsthal once made some thing so wonderfirl is now forgotten.

Ahh, but a fruit salad ...

Well, not only is it easy on the eye and the tongue, but it creales something so rich,

Invesfigative reporter, Seymour Hersh of the Ncu Ymkn, rcvealed that, in the latter part of 2005, dre CIA and U.S. Special Operation Forces began reconnaiss:utce missions over Iran with spy planes, afrempting to establishweapons facilities for "precision (air) strikes and short{erm commando raids.n On April & Henh reported that the Air Force has mapped out sFategic bombings while other U.S. oftcers are nmning undercover intelligence missions in ban. According to Hersh, Iranian hesident Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's name has become synonymous with Hider in the White House.

The Bush Administration has been downplaying Hersh's reports, stating.that its policy of choice is diplomacy. At the same time, Bush has refirsed to join European countries in any discussions with ban pertaining to their nuclear prograrn Don't worry, friends, you aren't the only ones who ffnd diplomacy without negotiation and a whole lot of secrecv sketchv, I hate to say i! but there is a war brewing.

The "Iran Fteedom Support Act" has passed drough the Intemational Relatiors Committ€e. This resolution, sponsored by over 300 Democrats and Repu'blicans alike, statesthat Congressdesiresio "... hold the current regime in Iran accountable for ib threatening behavior and to support a hansition to democracy' tluough United Nations sanctions and ofering frrnding to "prode mocrary" resistancegroups (read: U.S. pug pets).

Condoleeza Rice has gone on a $75 million spending spree to ffnance propaganda to circulate inside of Iran and haq against the Iranian regime. Last month, the National Security shategy staled that Iran was the greatestthreat to the United States,the U.S. must protect ib interestsand "all elemenB of national power" will be used against han.

I ask you now, in the face of this blossoming calastrophe, to refuse to see the conflict through red, white and blue tjnted gft$ses.

Do not forget whom we will be attacking. According to the CId a majority of Iran's population is rmder the age of 25, and 40 percenl of Iranians are under the poverty level. When we begin sanctions,we will devastate a largely impoverished populauon, just as we did in Iraq. When we begin bomlrng, women and children will be our victims, just as they are in kaq.

The Intemational Atomic Enerry Agency, or IAEd has yet to ffnd evidence of a developing nuclear weapons program and intends to rnaintain investigations in ban making the development of secret nuclear weaponry largely impossible. There will be no nukes in lran, just tike lraq.

And, perhaps the most tragic part of it all, the banian people who have struggled to get by rmder a repressive theocracy and continuously rise up for change will only be met with more human righb abuses, devastation and oppressions;much like the victims of the kaqi military dictatorship.

The voiceless will be lost in the chaos of explosiors, the facelesswill hrm into body counb and, once again, the stuggle of the oppressedwill be thwarted by our stars and barsclad boys in the sand.

Strike seeffs

pointlesstoday I have always viewed strikes in the simples! most ideilistic terms possible: an example of The Lifrle Guy, spr,rred on by an injustice, standing up to The Man. Of course, like polo, space favel and retiremenl I have no penonal exoerience on which to base this viewpoint-I jist dont Iike The Man. I have never known anvone involved in a strike, never ac0:ally seen a stike and never thought I would ever be affected by a strike. eI always thought of srikes as something that happened back east,in cities like Cleve land and Piasburgh, where sons work at the sa.rneplace their fathers did.

That is. until last week As a nondriving resident of Boulder, completely dependent upon public transporhtion, the strike last week by the Amalgamated TransitlJnion Iocal l00l left rne debilitared- and more than a little upsel Wbile couch surffng in Capitol llill, and thumbing (truice) my way down U.S. 36, I $ewe4 not so silentln about what I zuddenly felt to be the incredible injustice of labor unions.

I couldnt believe these drivers and mechanics would just leave me-a ta.npayer, who irlly embraces the idea of public bansportation--{tranded lust because they wanted. in the words of one shiker. "a litde bit more money."

Don't we all want a litle bit more money? These days, some of us would be happy with a job. After years guarding against the inlluences of The Man, I now found myself ' dangerously to s;.li''g u/ith him, "16ss The centemiece of the i.rnion's table of gripes was tire fact that some high-level minagem had received large raises in their annual salary in the last year, while union wages had remained static.

They do not hesitate to make up socalled "facts" to advance their oppressiveagenda-Now, Gov. Bill Owens, who is hrming more liberal every day, has signed a bill banning smoking in most public olacesin Colorado.

To set the record st'aight, I am not a smoker. I have never had a cigarette in my entire life and I don't plan to start smoking, either. I have no agenda. I simply see a government intent on trivializing our freedoms statewioe. and hurting businesses This is-another one of those issues that have to do with the leftist idea that the govemment knows what s better for us than we do. The antisrnoking brigade believes nonsmokers should not have to be around smoke, based upon the alleged honors of SecondHand Smoke,or SHS,so they create restrictive laws punishing smokers and businesses.which will certainlv suffer becauseof this. They hil to comprehend the fact that nonsmokers can choose whetler or not to go into establishmentsthat allow smoking.

Realistically speaking there aren't many

places in this countrv where we have to worry about smoking. it is prohibited at shop ping venues, stadiums, churches, schools, fast-foodjoints and rnost restaumnts,just to name a few.

I also question just how hazardous Second Fland Smoke is.

I didnt rethink my degree track or anything, but I did divide the total of the raises by \7n, the number of rmion members who were on stike. which gave me $72.18 per member. I then multtplied this by three, the number of years in the contract being negotiated. I came up with a gmnd total of $216.54per member. Thar's $33.46lessthan the $250 bonus RTD offered union memben in the contract they voted to strike over.

This means RTD offered union members more money than it gave its top three mana8ers.

' Re: lrlike Donelek

Mike Danelek needs to take care with what appears in his most recent column on Nazism, as it would certainly not passmue ter as an essavfor a historv course. kr dre ffrst place, there are several strange historicd assertions. While both Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union were unspeakably evil regimes, they were separated by more than "tivial difierences."

The Nazi ideology revolved aroud an anti-modem mythology of the German ook, wiftr ib emphasis on racial purity and the elimination ofJews, while Stalin's terror emerged from his own paranoia and was much rnore in the vein of what one might call totalihxiarfsm. Moreover. that the Nazis included "Socialist" in their narne indicatesnothing more than Hitlefs willingness to play semantic games. Nazi ideology had very litde to do with economic planning save for some vague ideas about corporatism, and ffrms like I.G. Farben, Siemens and lt(rupp never fell under *re conbol of the Nazi shre, 6ough they did certainly wort with it German Soddisb are remembered for their stancein l93i| againstHitler, and especially for their refixal to grant him unfeitered power rmder the Enabling Act when all other partieg induding the Catha lic Cenne, acceded. Sodalists, trade uniqr ise and others from the Gerrnan left soon and found themselvesin the ffrst of the Nazi camPs,

Danelek righdy describes Saddam Hussein's regime as brutal, but to insist that it was a "theocracy" is to mizunderstand it, and Hussein, completeln and to continue to reinforce the misleading idea that Hussein and Bin Laden were comrades of a sort han is a tue theocracv. for examole. and Saudi Arabia is not far irehind, though one is Shi'ite and one Walrhabist. There were no clerics sewing as the ultimate authority in kaq, for religion (as we now see only too well) was far too volatile to be used as the sole tool for political control. Husseirl along with the Assads in Syria, was one of the few remaining dictators left from the much more secularminded and technocratic pan-Arab r4ovement that followed on the lead of the Fglptian Nasseritesin the late l950s. The Ba'arh Parw was Hussein's vehicle in that purpose. Hussein's Sunni followers relied more on a cofirmon senseof ethnic identity than on religious afFliation for their unity. After all, it was Sund Arabs who persecuted Sunni Kurds in lraq!

Political correchress, I'm a.baid, has ffnally gotten too far out of hand. Two weeks ago, in a move to make someone hrppy-ulthough I'm not sure exacdy who-City Call in St Paul, Mirm. removed the EasterBunny from its foyer. Apparendy, someone complained, saying they were offended by the EasterBnnny (or, more likely, the presenceoI the Easter Burury) at city hall. Offended! So, city offiaals did what any spineles organization does in them sihrations:thev folded like a card player with a bad hand,-and got dre offensive critter the hell outta there. What s next? Are they going to change the name of the city to just "Paul to avoid any religious connotation?"

Now, I have nothing agairst the whole separalion of church and state thing; in hct, I believe in it wholeheartedly. But let s face it the Easter Burury has about as much to do with Easter as Santa Claus has to do with Chrfmas, which is absolutely NOTHING! So what if someone is offended? l.et them be offended" that doesm'tmean I have to changp; it simply means someone-who is not me-is ofiended. Iike Dr. Phil sap, 'em, "eey/ve got to own yer feelings. Ov',n but don't expect others tew chaynge becuz of 'em." Tl4 by the way, is not an actual . quote, but it is something fm frirly sure the good doc sap on a daily b".is.

Take Howard Stem; for example. The selfproclaimed "King of All Mbdia" has been fined several times and for several thousand dollan, by 6e Federal Communications Commission-one of the most useless govemment organizations there is, if you ask me-because someone was offended bv what he had to say.

odal the bop who live at this olphanage are the furthest from the darnaged cbildren one rvould expect as a result of years of hunger, fear and the exploitation by adults.

Their stories vary. Most of the boys lost their parents to AIDS, some to Malaiia. Some fetched water for money, others ended up involved in prostituUon. Regardlessof the s0ory,the outcome is the same: .ur unexpectedly vivacious glow of excitement in the child's face, easy laughter and an eagemessto do well in school.

From an American penpective, this may be difficult to understand.

From the typical Western viewpoin! this drild cannot possbly be happy or excited. He has been wearing the same set of clothing for a year; he has no family; he has no toys. There are no child psychologistsor antidepressants.

In l98l the world saw is ffrst AIDS case.It was diagnosed in the United Statesand according to the Uganda AIDS Commission, the diseasewas detected in Uganda by 1982.

Years later, after AIDS had killed three of his brothers, his son and several nieces and nephews, Sam Mutabaazi, then a successfi:lbusinessmanin the capital city of KampalE saw an opporumity to help.

Mutabaazi said that while he rvas keeping his shop, he would see steet children, often one older grl or boy, uin charge of six other brothers.'

Mutabaazi began talking to the children and saw their situations as breeding grounds for the AIDS virus. Many of the children were lured into prostitution and some were using drugs.

"You are 13 years old. You are a girl. You don't have food to eat. What do you do if the temptation comes?" Mutabaazi said.

Years later, Mutabaazi had made philanthropic friends in Norway, Aushalia and America and had ffnally raised enough money to build an orphanage, which he called Dorcas ChiL dren's Home, named after his wife.

"The people have to be skong to survive in these otherwise dehumanizing conditions. They have developed a resilience which is otherwise unlnown in this part of the world," said Lucas Shamala, the visiting assistantprofessor of A-frican and African-American Studies a.tMetro.

Shamala grew up in Western Kenya, not far from Uga::da and said his humble background was probably similar !o those of the orphans.

The problem of orphans in Afiica is not a new one, Sha-

mala said. It begins with the lack of education about sexual maters and sometimes ends in a precariofrs'lifestyle without many resoruces. "(Africans) know that their reality rneans there axe many chances that one will die before seeing a doctor-that's just given," Shamalasaid.

In the event of a parends dearh, if the extended farnil)tis either not available or too Door to care for the dfldren left behind. thev are forced to survive on their own.

Buino j\frican is truly alone.

Grief is exper,ienceddifferendy in different cultures and Africans have a stong senseof community, Shamala said. They do not have to overcome grief on their own. While Americans are taught to deal with sorrow individually and inhospectively, Africans let their community share the burden. "ln Africa, griel like any other social challenge or joy is a shared phenomenon. The social support system is very high and widespread," Shamala said.

A strong support system is what Mutabaazi creatad when he founded the Dorcas Children's Home. Its sense of community is overwhelrning.

"We are one,' said Peter, an orphan now in his fffth year of primary school. "We love each other.'

All-Americon boy

By Joe \gu1-en.

Actor B.D. Wong shared his experience as a gay AsianAmerican actor Thursday in the Trvoli Tumhalle at Auraria.

Wong is known for his roles on "law & Order: Special Victims Unit and "O2." This is one of many stops on his tour of college cirmpures. He arrived dressed in all black and sooke about the model minoriw mvth and how it affecled his career. uThe model minoriw mvth is the misconceotion thal specifically,Asian-American'people are perfecti he said.

"Of all the ethnic minorities, we have the fewest pmblems and racism does not a.ffectus. Furthermore ... we all have good jobs, we all have good incomes and we are generally science and math driven individuals. AII of us."

Growing up, Wong was attracted to the field of acting, but his parents had different ideas. . "[t) boiled down to med school, law school (or) acting," he said. "Those were my choices. Med school and law school were their choices, acting was my choice."

As a freshman in high school, he acted in his ffrst play.

He credits his drama teacher for instJlling in him the passion for acting.

During a tyout at a community thea.ter, he had his sights set on being a lead in one of the two plals being casL He ended up geting a part as a stereotypical bucktooth Chinese character. he said. "I had "For me, it was a huge rude thought of myself as this All-American l.id ... when (*re director) made that connection and he said 'I see this as you,' it totally freaked me out" Th6 dtector asked him if he felt like he was a black actor who was cast in a mammy role. When Wong said yes, he was recast as a winged monkey in "The Wizard of Oz." Early in his career,he found difficulties in ffnding diverse roles, often being pigeorrholed in stereotypical porlayals.

'Those parc (induded) the toubled Chinarovrn teenage gang rnember, the generic, nuln mean Asian waiter at a restaurairg and my penonal favorite, the wacky foreigr t':. exchangostrdent ? he said. , He said the mvth is the r€ason Asian-Americarx have few roles on elevision and fflrr.

sion and fflms and popular culture," he said. "Our ability to eqrress or.uselvesin those characterswould allow people to see that we're all alike. Even that fr-rndamentalthing has not yet existed in my career or my life as a consumer."

Even on the set of "Law and Order: Special Mctims Unit " he said the roles are stereotypical, as lie plays a doctor andJoel de la Fuentes,the other Asian American actor on the show, plays the computer guy.

One of the big issuesamong Asian American a.tors is whether or not to speak with an accent at an audition. Even when thev do whaithev feel is their best work he said there is one qu'estionthat is isked.

'Invariably, nine times out of 10, strll to this day, you will be asked, 'That is grea! can you do it with an accent?'" he said.

When he signed on to star as the lead on the Broadway play "M. Bufrerlly,' he said it changed rnany of the bad feelings he had about being Asian American. During the run of the play he met his eventual life partner, ftchieJackson.

The traioof them wanted to have children, so they got a surrogate mother,Jaclson's sister'seggs and Wong's "forensic evidence," as he called iL The twin boys, Boaz Dov and Jaclson Foo, were born three months premafure. Boaz Dov died shordy afur his birth while his brother stuggled to stay alive.

During this period, Wong began sending e-mails to his friends asking for their prayers. Soon, the modest email list grew to nearly 1,000 addresses.A publisher approached him and asked if he wanted to write a book about the e mails. Wong agreed and created "Following Foo: The Elechonic Adven[res of the Ches&rutMan." The book also meant that he was coming out after years of covering it up witr his "Asian American blankel" He said it was libera.tingto ffnally show the world who he really wils.

College is the time when s0rdmb are discovering themselves,Wong said- He called for more dialogue and discus sion on rmiversity camp$es, because it is the key to activisn and self-awaieness.'TblsinspirFd& and sef<dscovery is something he didn't get when he was in college.

theAlorm Thedorkknights of emoSound Savesthe Duy answer fans' prayers with retur:n to early sound

By Sarah Cont'ay sconwq6@mscd.edu Savesthe Day is known for being inno vative, emotional, fferce and fl:ll of ballsy, graphic, lpical assertion.They're the talented NewJersey poppunk quaxiet who writes songs about peeling bark skin, digging out eyesand using bodes to catch blood in, but in a semi-romantic, deeply emo6onal, frustrated sort of way.

Saves the Dav owned the East Coast emo scene after pcklng up where Lifetime left ofr in 1997 and quickly became a staple in the CD collectitns of most punk-rockJov-

ing twenty-qomethings.

Their rnusic mixed snappybeaa and choppy basslines with tw#ellh+ eed.nqarbid-Iydcs"which typicalioverlypop other bands within the same genre.

In 2003, Savesthe Pay went from being on top of the world to being in the middle of what Vagraat Records described as, 'a shit-storm of the higheit order." They were signed to DreamWorks Records, had sold a career total of over half a million albums and had toured with Blink-182, Weezer, Face to Face. Green Dav and Dashboard Confessional.They had'just released 1n Reverie, lJ:leXfourth frrll-length album and ffrst major label release,when shortly thereafter DreamWorks went belly-up, and their contract was gobbled up by the Univenal Music Group.

"We battled some pretty serious demons getring these songs together,' singer Chris Conlev said in a statâ&#x201A;Źment oosted on the

Vaerant records Website about their new aibirn SoundtheAlarm. "W e spentlast year without a label while dealing with penonnel changes, building a shrdio, and trying to write and record an entire album-I was fflled with frustration and anger."

Instead of calling it quits, the band channeled that frustration by retuming to its earlier style of fasu punk chord progressions and enthusiasticvocals on their mosr recenr release,Soundtfu Alarm.

This comes as a gift and a relief to those Iong{ime fans who had their hopes shattered by In Reoeriz,the most controversial release of Saves the Day's career. It introduced a new side of Conley-the whiney, unmotivated, immatlre side-which left a bad taste in the mouths of the early Saves the Day fans, ryho knew the band was capable 1 of more, ' Fomrnately for ihe band, its fans nere lenient u'hen it came to igroring a mediocre album, and it managed to maintain a certain level of respect from the general punkrock public.

In support of ,SoznltheAlarm. Savesthe Day is currently hitting the pavement with Moneen, Circa Survive and Down to Earth Approach. Their live shows deliver music in its puest form: no frills, no flames,just straighrforward, good ol' fashioned rock and roll.

The band's current line-up features Conley on vocals and rhlthm guitar, David Soloway on lead guitar, drummer Pete Parada (formerly of Face to Face) and its most recent addition, bassist Manny Carrero (formerly of Glassjaw)In appreciation of its hue ''til death

fans," the band recorded a limited edition EP of acoustic re-workings of older songs tided,,Bng Susions:Vol.'|, available exclusively at the showson thls tour.

Along with a special version of the original Savesthe Day fan favorite Jodie,' Btq Sessionsfeatures acoustic versions of uSellMy Old Clothes,I'm off to Heaven,' "My Sweet Frachre," "You Vandal," "Certain Tragedy," "In My Waking Life," and "Freakish.'

lndie-rockers marked 2fi)3 as the year of The Unicoms.

The Canadian pop darlings rose to underground stardom b+ hind such anthems as Jellybones," "I Was Bom (a Unicom)" and "Tuff GhosL" They took catchy hooks and morbid lyrics to new heights, never repeating a theme and never sounding stale. The Uniiorns refirsed to follow a versechorus-versesong struchffe, and their songs rarely strayed beyond three minutes. It was the world's most concise prog-rock.

Sadln The Unicorns had the lifespan of a ma$y. They broke up before the rest of the music world caught on.

Forhrnately, Unicoms' singer and songwriter Nick Diamonds, and drummer J'aime Tambeur stayed together to form Islands.

Upon listening to their debut album Return to the Sea, its clear the two were the important part of their former band.

Islands come acrossas a mix between The Unicoms and Paul Simon. The opening track, .Swans (Life After Death)," is instandy more organic and nairral than anlthing Diamonds wrote in the

pasl Gone are the sub-three minute recordings and most of the Pac Man $mthesizers. Ftrll compositions loaded r,rith acoustic guitars and a full array of percussion replace them. A good listen will even reveal the occasional chorus.

This isn't to say there aren't any hints of the musicians'past in Retum, sl'tch as "If There's a Will, There's a Whalebone,' which begins with Diamonds' hushed falsetto over eerie instnmentation before br:rsting into a dizzying array of bass, synthesizersand hip nop.

The morbid serse of humor remains, too.

There are sull plenty of songs about bones and death, and ids as lovable as ever.

A truly weak song is the only thing Islands lacks. There are a couple moments where the album drags along, such as the inskumental 'Tsuxiit' and .It,' but it makes up for it with brilliant songs like "Don't Call Me Whitren Bobby," "Rough Gem" and the aforementioned"If There's a Will, There's a Wha]ebone."

Islands succeedsin carrying on The Unicoms' brilliance, and in doing so has tumed .Relnrnto the Seatrttn one of the best albums of 2006. Hopefully, this band won't disappear so quickly.

Mash-up projech combine music from two different artisb. Many maslr.ups are corsidered to be illegal because the original artisb don't give their consent for the use of these songs.

Regisin RMAC

By Eric Lansing lansing@mscd.edu As of April 5, dre Meho baseball team 'in sat sixth place in the Rocky Motmtain Athletic Conference with a record of 88.

Regis sat in fffth place with a 43 RMAC record.

The hvo tea.rrs bafiled it out over the past weekend, not only for fifth place, but to take strides at moving up the RMAC ladder toward the playofis. Meho, which came into the weekend riding a fourâ&#x201A;Źame winning streak, went on the road against the Rangers of Regis and won iJree out of the four games.

The tbree RMAC wins moved the Roadrunners into that fffth position and now only

lay trro garnes back of fourthplace New Mexico Highlands.

"It was a good seriesfor usr" Meho head coach Vince Porrepo said. 'The day before, we had outstanding pitching and today was one of those dap that dre bas had to wake up. Anytime you c.m go onto the road and win a series against a good club like Regis,' you've done something."

Friday's game was moved to Sahrrday as p doubleheader due to inclement weather.

Despite the rain, Meho npirched" two complete game shutoub ag'ainstthe Rangers, 14 and 50.

Junior Braden Ham and senior Ryan Bright combined for eight hits (ail singles), no runs, one walk and eight shikeouts in 16 irnings of work. But the one guy who doesn't show up in that box score is sophe more catcher Reece Gorman, who called two games. *My pitching sta.ff is great and I love carching from all of the guys." Gorman said. uThat ffrst dav. we came out and we were ready to play."

Although he only went 2{or-7 and had two runs in the two games, Gorman takes

the leadership role by calling the perfect pitch and yelling at the defenseabout which base to throw the ball to.

"He is a big part of our program and we need him down the stretcl\" Porreco said on Gorman's great weekend, "It was the ffrst time he caught all four games (in a series) and he showed me something. He showed me some heart and some desire and did a greatjob behind the plate all weekend."

Game one's only run came in the fourth inning when Gorrnan doubled down the left ffeld line and was brought home on sophomoreJake Palmer's sacriffce fiy. Ham recorded his teamJeading ff:fth win of the season(S2) while Regisjunior pitcher Craig Deaver took the loss in a complete game with one run and a four*trikeout effort Game two saw a pitching duel between senior pitchers Bright and Mau Huff. Both took shutouts into the seventh inning when Meho scored ffrst and took a 1{ lead. After Palmer gave Meno that lead with his seventh homerun of season,Metro scored one run in the eighth inning and three more in the ninth.

Three Ranger erron led to the three

rrms in the ninth inning and they failed to put up any nrns in their half of. the ninth to ffnish the game at 5{. Games three and four were very much difrerent than those of Saturday as Mebo split with Regis by scores of &6 and lost the ffnale 65.

The ffrst urvogarnesprovided only three extra base hit, while game three smashed out 13with 1l doubles, a triple, and a homenrn. Serrior Randv Lashua came out with the hardest of the ext-a-base hit to get a tiple and his third homenrn in two weeks.

Lashua started the scoring as he hit a two-nm triple to right field. But Regis scored their ffrst runs of the series by putring up two runs in the botlom of the second when sophomore Peter Whailey doubled in a run and freshman Mke Benton singled in a run to even the scoring aJtwo apiece.

Metro then jumped back quickln putting up a three spot in the very next inning, which included T ashua's fulkount blast over the leftffeld wall.
