Denver Rescue Mission volunteer finds new outlook on life

By Melanie J. Rice mrice20@msudenver.edu

Denver Rescue Mission volunteer and program participant Michael Lyons says his service there has changed his perspective on life.

Lyons, originally from Detroit, lives at the mission and is a participant in its New Life Program. As part of the program, he serves in the kitchen and coordinates volunteers at the mission’s new Lawrence Street Community Center — a facility that some in Denver’s Ballpark Neighborhood didn’t want to see open.

People crowded the center Sunday morning, some ate breakfast and chatted with friends while others slept on the floor.

It was just 10 degrees outside and the center served 789 breakfasts.

Meanwhile, Lyons was hard at work in the kitchen where volunteers helped prepare and serve food. Lyons helps keep those volunteers plugged in, but that’s not all he does.

Chef Robert Harrison said, “He stays busy, and that’s the key thing to do here, is to stay busy.” Harrison said it’s important for those at the mission to focus on getting it together, rather than thinking about their former way of life.

Lyons said his days start at 3:30 a.m. and often don’t end until after 9 p.m. He assists with food preparation, serving food and

cleans up after meals. More than that, he contributes to a sense of community for the center’s patrons and volunteers.

A woman who declined to give her name had just finished eating. She quietly bused dirty dishes from the table to make room for others and said, “Actually, he allows us to connect with one another. He brings a sense of peace.”

“He himself connects with people on different levels. He’s actually an inspiration,” she said.

Lyons said he’d struggled with addiction for 10–12 years, but has been clean for 15 months.

He said when he arrived at the mission two months ago, he was greeted by a man at the front door who said he didn’t look like he belonged there.

But, Lyons said, “Who’s to say who belongs and who doesn’t?”

Lyons said his service and experience at the mission has impacted not only the lives of others, but his own life.

“I’ve gone through points in my life where I’ve given up on myself,” Lyons said.

“I’ve tried to humble myself and appreciate things again, but it never hit me until I got here.”

He said for the first time in his life, he has begun to evaluate things.

Though Lyons said he wouldn’t change most of his past experiences, he wished he could take back the pain and anguish he

caused his family.

Lyons said he was formerly a financially successful entrepreneur, but drugs and drinking took him down a different path.

“I was always under the impression that I had to make money to be successful. My definition of success was money,” Lyons said.

“It was simple.”

“But in the last two months, I’ve never been paid a single cent. I’m happier than I’ve ever been in my entire life,” he said.

Lyons said the men in the programs at

the mission are like family to each other.

“No one can make it through this world on their own,” he said. “I don’t care who you are. Everybody needs a support group for different areas in life.”

Lyons plans to transfer to the mission’s Star Program, and is considering attending the fire fighting academy so he will have free time to do something to give back. He said his three-to-five-year plan includes opening a foundation for underprivileged, inner city kids.

More Information The Denver Rescue Mission accepts donations of food, clothing and household goods seven days a week.

Volunteers prepare and serve three meals daily at the Lawrence Street Community Center, and other locations.

A story of a lonely college student

By Pacific Obadiah pobadiah@msudenver.edu I was looking forward to seeing all my friends who returned home from college. Instead, I spent almost all of winter break slowly sinking into my chair.

I’m only a semester into college, but already I’m finding that I’ve had considerably less time to socialize and be with friends. Instead, I’ve found myself

staring at screens killing time while waiting for school to start or waiting for my next shift at work.

For a somewhat introverted writer, the idea of sitting at home and dedicating time to my craft seemed like heaven. Instead, I was lonely and longing for human interaction.

Perhaps it’s the fact that most of Metro’s students live far away and commute to campus, or maybe it’s the drastic differences in schedules, but I’ve struggled to branch out and meet new people.

Although many of my high school friends attend Metro, I never see them, let alone talk to them.

Cumulatively, this is leaving me feeling pretty lonely.

A recent Vice article “Why Millions of Men Lose Friends in Their Twenties“

by Kevin EG Perry talks about a similar issue. Perry interviewed a

collection of men ranging from 19 to 30 years old.

Each account tells a similar story: people slowly drift away from their friends and shift their attention to careers, or they have a group of friends, yet still report feeling lonely due to shallow relationships. According to the World Health Organization, this loneliness leaves men more vulnerable to anxiety, depression, and suicide.

Unfortunately, loneliness is beginning to affect more people.

Last March, Time published “Why Loneliness May Be the Next Big Public-Health Issue,“ written by Justin Worland.

In his article, Worland details a study done by Brigham Young University researchers, which found that loneliness can raise the risk of death by 26 percent.

The researchers focused on two types of loneliness: Subjective

“loneliness leaves men more vulnerable to anxiety, depression, and suicide. ”

loneliness, and objective loneliness. Subjective loneliness refers to individuals who had social connections, but felt lonely, whereas objective loneliness refers to those with little to no social interaction and living alone.

Worland points out that individuals who report loneliness, yet report happiness, are actually at a greater risk than individuals with subjective loneliness.

College is time when people buckle down, focus on themselves and starting their careers.

Though, with all the health risk that comes alongside this vehement focus, perhaps we all need to take some time and talk to the people around us.

Not only is social interaction a good way to grow as a person, but it will help lower stress, and lower one’s risk of death. Try joining a club, connecting with classmates, and spending less time staring at the screen.

When militants become terrorists

By Sterling Stowe slenways@msudenver.edu In 2012 Dwight Hammond Jr. and his son Steven were convicted of arson for setting fires on public land.

Dwight Hammond was sentenced to three months in prison and his son received one year.

In early 2015 an appeals court overturned the original sentence on the basis that the Hammonds had to serve the mandatory minimum. Both were issued a new

sentence of five years minus the time they had already served.

In December of 2015 the case attracted a group that has been deemed a militia by some and terrorists by others. After a large group of around 300 protesters marched through Burns, Oregon another group of armed individuals advanced 30 miles south to occupy the headquarters of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge.

What is interesting is not whether the Hammonds are guilty or being punished unjustly, but how the government is responding and what it says about institutionalized racism in our country.

The occupying group has said they are willing and prepared to stay for years or until the

government releases Hammond and his son. The building they occupied was empty at the time and no one was injured during the occupation, but Ryan Bundy of the group has said that they’re willing to kill and be killed if necessary according to reports from the Oregonian.

The Oregonian also interviewed some locals who were sympathetic to the Hammonds and believed that the occupying group may have a point but still stood against their extremism.

The response from authorities has so far been minimal with the federal government taking a supporting role and local authorities only asking the occupying group to leave peacefully and return to their families.

“Just because the occupying group is a bunch of white guys pretending to be patriots doesn’t mean we have to believe them.”

Considering an armed group has taken over a federal building and are planning to stay there until their demands are met and they are willing to kill and be killed, authorities have been surprisingly understanding.

If we change the story just one bit and add in that the occupying group is muslim I dare speculate that we would have already commenced the drone strikes and be moving on to a full takeover.

The definition of terrorism according to the Merriam Webster dictionary is, “The use of violent acts to frighten the people in an area as a way of trying to achieve a political goal.”

Just because the occupying group is a bunch of white guys pretending to be patriots doesn’t mean we have to believe them. We should call this occupying group what they are and treat them as such. Terrorists.

A chat with the devil’s advocate

By Pacific Obadiah pobadiah@msudenver.edu Jonathan Zungre is an aspiring video game developer based out of New York. His game, “Lie to the Devil”, made headlines last year due to its controversial nature.

The Met had an opportunity to correspond with Zungre to talk about what got him into game development and learn what he’s been doing since the release of his game.

Zungre, who graduated from New York University Tisch School of the Arts, has returned as an adjunct professor in addition to making games for Scholastic.

“I like making games for kids,”says Zungre. “That, and I needed a steady job.”

Zungre wasn’t always a game developer.

For a while, he was a video game journalist.

When he was covering major events, such as the Electronic Entertainment Expo or the Game Developer’s Conference, he found himself wandering off to hear talks of game design.

“I think in general that there were games that I wanted to exist and I didn’t think they were going to get made unless I made them.”

So Zungre started making games. Along the way, he started to understand a few things.

“For making games, the most important thing is just to make something everyday,” says Zungre. “If you do that, I think it would be hard to stop you from achieving whatever you want.”

Zungre also realized that some people get lucky, whether they’re a good artist and get hired by a big company or they’re an indie developer, while others never make it.

“If you succeed, it doesn’t mean you’re good,” says Zungre. “If you fail, it doesn’t mean you’re bad. Just do the work, pursue the things in your heart and let success and failure do their own thing. They don’t mean anything anyway.”

Zungre was a part of the first year’s game center, and “Lie to the Devil” was Zungre’s thesis game. The game begins with a player sitting down at a computer, with two boxes in front of them. The computer begins to ask them questions, but these questions quickly become probing as the computer starts to ask things such as, “Are you a good person? Does the pain of others make you feel good or bad?”

After the bout of questioning, the computer has the player make a pet. They are allowed to choose between a cat or dog, the color of its fur, and get to name it. As soon as the player has finished creating their pet, the computer asks them how they want their pet to die. The only way to save the pet is to play Russian Roulette.

“Another big one was the idea of sacrifice,” says Zungre. “Are players capable of real world sacrifice? Will they risk something to save a character?”

Looking at the rest of Zungre’s portfolio, including his newer games for Scholastic, “Lie to the Devil” seems oddly dark, and out of place.

Zungre disagrees, saying a common thread in all of his games is consequences.

for the students’ return in a week, as well as the problems and stress it will bring.

Tivoli Station employees are making early preparations for the rush of students trying to buy their textbooks.

“We get lines that could stretch to the back of the wall,” said store employee Michael Gomez, gesturing to the end of the store several yards away from the cashiers.

Gomez also said the staff would be working hard to help students, especially with the textbook organization change from subject to author.

In the midst of these early preparations, most everyone is still keeping a level head.

Matt Godinez, an employee at the campus Dazbog coffee shop, isn’t worried about the rush of students they’ll receive in the first weeks.

“We basically just staff up,” said Godinez. “We’ve been through it before.”

5

This is probably most clearly seen in his game “Backer Rewards.”

Zungre’s site describes the game as “a short, metafiction, choose-your-ownadventure game about game developers. The choices the player makes decide the type of game they’re playing. Basically, players design the game as they’re playing it.”

The game starts off simply enough. The Acclaimed for developing “Lie to the Devil” and “Backer Rewards,” player is a backer for a Jonathan Zungre is still hard at work making games that stand out even Kickstarter game, and among the Indie genre.

The department, which usually sees a glut of student traffic once deadlines approach, is doing its best to get the word out about what needs to be submitted and when. Candelaria noted that students should have their files completed by the priority deadline, March 1st, to avoid any serious issues and headaches.

It’s understood that there will be moments of stress for students though.

S “David Bowie”

By Luis Bustos lbustos@msudenver.edu A record so sinister yet innocent David Bowie’s self titled 1967 debut paints the portrait of a rather grim world while appropriating the baroque pop of the late 60s.

Written and composed exclusively

by Bowie, the record was produced by Mike Vernon. At just 20-years-old, the English pop star released the record only to receive mixed reviews. By industry standards the album was a flop.

It crowned at #1 in New Zealand, but peaked at 67 in Australia. The lack of success for the record led Deram to drop Bowie from the label.

Opening the record with “Uncle Arthur,” the tongue-in-cheek song depicts the tale of 32-year-old “momma’s boy,” Arthur falling in love with “Sally.”

His flourishing romance wilts shortly after Arthur and Sally run away together.

“Round and round goes Arthur’s head, hasn’t eaten well for days little Sally may be lovely, but cooking leaves her in a maze.”

While the track may be entertaining to some, it’s evident to the listener that Bowie’s passion lies elsewhere on the record. The first track reeks of calculated

S “The Revenant”

compromise, symphonically as well as an honest lack of interest on Bowie’s behalf.

The next notable song on the album “Love You Till Tuesday” only furthers the impression that Bowie was being held hostage in the studio at the time of recording.

Not only does the record lack any innovation, but it lacks sex appeal as well. Bowie’s novice songwriting with the combination of failed sex appeal leaves the listener slightly uncomfortable and even a little bored.

Bowie sheds some of his industry chains by the sixth track. “We Are Hungry Men” emphasises imminent distress by shining light on the inevitability of Earth’s overpopulation. “I have prepared a document, legalizing mass abortion. We will turn a blind eye to infanticide” Lyrically, Bowie is uncut and comfortable but is still somewhat limited by simple pop production.

Track 6 marks the point in the record where Bowie takes a firm hold of the story he’s telling. This is evident by the passion he brings to an otherwise gloomy track.

Bowie’s songwriting does evolve significantly throughout the record. By track 12, Bowie’s lyrical and compositional ability shines brightly as he tells the story of Mary/Tommy: a crossdressing soldier who survived war. “People say that when the moon is full and all the stars have gone to bed, you can see her ghost but that’s a lie because the naughty woman isn’t dead.”

The self titled debut ultimately does leave the listener wanting more from Bowie, but just barely.

The obvious lack of passion early in the record is somewhat daunting, yet the evolution of Bowie depicts his untapped potential.

The weakest aspect of the record is without a doubt the production. Bowie’s lyrics mirror the opposite aesthetic the production conveys.

Regardless of the musical hindrance, Bowie’s lyrical and vocal performance removes any question in regards to his authentic talent.

David Bowie January 8, 1947 to January 10, 2016

The Revenant, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, is an amazing work of art that is an enjoyable experience without being pleasant.

As a follow up to his critically acclaimed film “Birdman,” director and screenwriter Alejandro González Iñárritu takes us through the life of Hugh Glass as he struggles against the elements and society in his quest for revenge.

This film succeeds at showing us the terrifying intensity of the wilderness on multiple levels.

S “Black Star”

By Chris Bjork cbjork1@msudenver.edu The January 10th passing of David Bowie was tough news to swallow for fans and music lovers worldwide.

After an 18 month battle with cancer, Bowie passed just two days after his 69th birthday and the release of his 25th full length studio album.

Blackstar serves as a testament to how passionate and hardworking Bowie was, to make art that reflected the human condition unlike any other rock and roll musician before him.

Powerfully ambitious in its presentation, creative in its jazzy experimentation and perplexing in its subject matter, Blackstar is one of Bowie’s most ominous and emotive album.

The album kicks off with the song “Blackstar,” a ten minute single that showcases the album’s experimental jazz sound. The title track is as diverse as it is dark and creepy.

The intro starts off with a spacey and dissonant melody that is backed up with a bustling drum beat and some busy synth flourishes. It has an unsettling vibe to it and things take an even weirder turn when the lyrics come in.

Bowie sings of a “solitary candle in the villa of Ormen” where “on the day of execution only women kneel and smile.”

Following the moody attitude in the beginning, the song takes a cheerful transition where the melody of the vocals, the strings and the sax played by Donny McCaslin take a bright transformation until the dark theme returns.

The song “Lazarus” maintains a gloomy character where Bowie’s somber vocal harmonies are met with a descending three note call and response during the verse. The song takes time to build up in energy while the Sax and drums slowly start gaining momentum, providing the song with a lot of power.

On one side we have the violent, gruesome sequences of war, and animal attacks. On the other side, we see the intensity of nature and how simply surviving in the wild is a cruel and difficult task.

These two themes work very nicely alongside each other to give the viewer a sense of the grueling and exhausting life Glass led.

Tom Hardy plays well alongside DiCaprio, his performance adding a level of maliciousness to the mostly unfeeling forces of cruelty that torment Glass.

All of this culminates in a very nihilistic film and at the end of all this effort and madness, we are asked if it was worth it or not. While we cannot say, Glass seems to

The next track “Sue (Or In a Season of a Crime),” which features the Maria Schneider Orchestra is one of the jazziest and most experimental songs in the album. The accompaniment from the orchestra follows closely besides Bowie’s dramatic vocal crescendos, underlining the emotional content of the lyrics of a love story filled with heartbreak and betrayal.

The next song, “Girl Loves Me” is incredibly catchy and features arguably the best vocal cadences that Bowie has ever delivered.

“Dollar Days” begins with a beautiful, intertwined guitar and piano harmony, punctuated with some flowery Sax lines that carry the melody forward. It’s an emotionally potent track that is contrasted with some driving guitar chords towards the end with some crashing drums that give it an almost anthem like quality.

The final track “I can’t give everything away,” serves as a good conclusion to the album with some pulsing synth chords that wash over the chorus, balancing well with Bowie’s songwriting on war and inner peace.

There isn’t much to criticize with Blackstar. Occasionally Bowie’s voice can be a bit overpowering, like in the song “Tis a Pity She Was a Whore” where Bowie’s flashy vibrato becomes a bit trying.

On the whole, the album serves as one of the most compelling for Bowie and is a testament to a truly virtuosic timeless Rock and Roll musician.

have found his answer.

In the final moments of the film DiCaprio breaks what feels like a law and looks directly into the camera.

This shocking moment where our eyes meet, his tear stained and blood-soaked face, we must consider if his answer is good enough.

The film is, in the end, an exercise in suffering. It takes the audience into a dark place where the human tragedy is on full display.

No one wins, no one is happy, everything is comprised and good deeds, for the most part, don’t matter. I recommend this movie for someone looking for a work of art even if it does feel a bit drawn out by the end.

Late foul trouble results in Roadrunner loss

By Mike Tolbert mtolber3@msudenver.edu After a back-and-forth first half, Metro was outscored by 12 in the second in the 72-60 loss to Mesa State at the Auraria Event Center on Military Appreciation Day Jan 8.

The Roadrunners were led in scoring by sophomore guard Peter Moller with 12 points, tieing the game at 45 with 9:17 remaining in the game.

In the ensuing possession, Mesa center Stephen Ryan scored a layup plus one after he stole the ball from senior guard Tony Dobbinson who drew his fifth foul while attempting to stop the fast break.

“Tony is the straw that stirs the drink,” head Coach Derrick Clark said. “He is a very difficult guy to guard. It was a big play when he lost the ball and got his fifth foul.

Obviously we’re much different without him on the floor because he creates his own shot. He is a guy you have to guard constantly.”

In foul trouble, Dobbinson sat the remainder of the game and finished with nine points and one assist.

Ryan went on to score his only 3-point play from behind the arc to put his team up 51-45.

“A guy like that who’s leading our conference in scoring, it’s going to be hard from keeping him to have two bad games,” Clark said.

The Mavericks would not relinquish its lead, led by Ryan who notched a game-high 27 points shooting 7-for-10 from the field and a perfect 12-for-12 at the line. He also tacked on two assists, two blocks and 13 rebounds, all defensive.

“He (Ryan) made his free throws, that’s what it was,” junior forward Andre Harris said. “We played pretty good defense, it just came down to free throws.”

Harris struggled at the line making just one of five but did score 11 points and a team high 10 rebounds. Harris sat the final two minutes when he drew his fifth foul against Ryan.

“I thought Andre was having some success in the game,” Clark said. “Without those two guys [Harris and Dobbinson], it was tough.”

The Mavericks held the Roadrunners to 31.1 percent shooting from the field while Mesa finished with a 45.7 shooting percentage. Although Metro struggled in scoring, the Roadrunners dominated on the boards out rebounding Mesa 4133 along with 12 second chance points.

With the loss, Metro sits at a 7-7 overall record, having beat Mesa State once already this season, 76-69 in Grand Junction.

Game 2, W 68-61 In the second game of the weekend, Moller scored a teamhigh for the second straight game notching 22 points and four rebounds in the 68-61 win over Westminster College at the Auraria Event Center Jan 9.

Metro got off to a slow pace managing only four points in the first nine minutes of play. The Roadrunners, who had gotten down by as many as 15 points in the first half, erased that deficit going on a 21-6 run in the final 8:29.

up, 29-28 at halftime.

The second half was evenly matched having eight lead changes between the two teams. Metro would eventually take the lead for good after Dobbinson hit a 3-pointer with 6:27 remaining.

The Runners would continue to keep a safe distance on the scoreboard down the stretch allowing only five points in the final six minutes.

“We desperately needed this win. Our guys knew that,” Clark

said. “The thing about the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference this particular year is that nobody’s really running away with it. If you get a win, you’re right back in contention.”

The Roadrunners are now one game above .500 at 8-7 (6-3 RMAC). Metro continues their home play against Colorado Christian Jan 15 and Colorado Mines Jan 16.

Since dropping the last two games against conference opponents, four Roadrunners scored in double digits in the 6242 rout over Westminster at the Auraria Event Center Jan. 9.

“It shows how much growth we’ve had in the past few games,” junior guard/forward Luisa Tago said. “It was really good to bounce back. We got a great team win, everyone was contributing and kept the intensity up.”

The tone was set early as Metro jumped out to an 11-3 lead, steered by sophomore center Hannah Stipanovich who scored six points and an assist during that stretch.

The Westminster defense struggled to keep up with the Roadrunners up-tempo offensive style of play throughout the first quarter. After a series of made layups and jumpers, Metro would take the 18-10 lead going into the second quarter.

The Griffins battled to pull within four after freshman guard Denise Gonzalez made a pair of 3-pointers in the final two minutes of the half.

The Runners took a 28-24 lead heading into halft ime.

The third period saw Metro

take complete control on both ends of the floor. They outscored the Griffins 18-7 in the quarter and tightened up on defense causing Westminster to go over five minutes without a point.

“We knew we had to get this win tonight,” sophomore guard Georgia Ohrdorf said. “We had been struggling the past few games. In the third quarters, we hadn’t come out very strong so that was our main focus today.

Just come out strong and play 40 minutes.”

Ohrdorf posted a doubledouble with 10 points and 11 rebounds.

With a score of 46-31, Metro took its 15 point lead into the fourth quarter and continued to dominate down the stretch. The Roadrunners held the Griffins to 30.2 percent shooting from the field and earned 12 points off turnovers.

Bench points were also a major factor led by sophomore forward Emily Hartegan with 10 points and six rebounds.

“Winning on our home floor is very important, especially because we have two home games next weekend as well,” Ohrdorf said.

“I think we did a really good job tonight, everyone came out strong and it was a good team win.”
