24-HOUR LIBRARY PROVES SUCCESSFUL by Jordan Richison Staff Writer

A campaign promise to have the Max Chambers Library on campus open 24 hours has turned into a reality for UCOSA President Jason Hines. Tuesday at the weekly UCOSA meeting, Hines announced to a standingroom-only crowd that the library experiment was a major success. The 24-hour trial run took place during finals week to see how students would respond to extended library hours. Hines said he was pleased how students took full advantage of it during the week. Jennifer O'Brien, a junior advertising major, was just one of many students who took advantage of the extended library hours. She said that she used the library every night of finals. "The 24-hour library was an amazing alternative. It gave students somewhere to study and hang out without having to cram local 24-hour restaurants," O'Brien said. The success of the 24-hour library period comes after the massive ice storm during finals week that caused major trouble for many UCO students. Knowing that people braved the weather and still showed up made the experiment that much more impressive. Hines was also very appreciative of the hard work the library workers and volunteers put in during the week. He said their efforts to work late in the night helped make the 24-hour library a success. "We are very thankful for

As a thank you to all the library staff who helped, out during the week, Hines declared January 14, 2008 as Library appreciation day at

UCO. Hines hopes to write a bill that would keep the library open even later. His plan is to extend the library hours from 11 p.m. to 2:00 a.m. He said that he wants to do this without having to use student activity fe&s. Passing this bill

is one of Hines major goals of the semester. Besides the extended library hours, Hines also mentioned that cafeteria hours were extended through UCOSA as a benefit to students. The bill, passed last semester, will keep the caf-

eteria open around the clock, from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Hines also saidhe is looking forward to UCO hosting the upcoming Oklahoma Student Government Association Spring conference February 28. The OSGA conference is a gathering of delegates from

all of the state's higher education institutions. The OSGA gathers to make resolutions that communicate to the State Legislature the issues that must be addressed to help college students. Hines said

Republican presidential hopeful former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney goes over notes before his Michigan primary victory speech in Southfield, Mich., Tuesday, Jan. 15, 2008. by Nelson Solomon Staff Writer

Mitt Romney and Sen. Hillary Clinton won the primaries in Michigan yesterday, in the latest primary competi-

tion of the 2008 presidential race. "Tonight marks the beginning of a comeback -- a comeback for America," the former Massachusetts governor said in his victory speech.

With 100 percent of sites reporting, Romney won the Republican contest by 39 percent, followed by Arizona Sen. John McCain at 30 percent, while Clinton won the Democratic contest with

a strong lead at 55 percent well ahead of her opponents, according to CNN's Election Center. Uncommitted voters ranked second highest in the Democratic contest, following Clinton's lead at 39 percent, according to CNN. Huckabee came in third in the Republican race at 16 percent while Ron Paul polled at 6 percent. Fred Thompson had 4 percent and Rudy Giuliani was at 3 percent. Some political analysts said Michigan was a must-win for Romney, who finished second in Iowa and New Hampshire, according to an online CNN article. Romney, who won the overshadowed Wyoming caucuses, is a Michigan native and his father was governor of the state in the 1960s. Forty-one percent of people who voted in the GOP primary said Romney's Michigan ties were important to them, according to exit polls, the article reported. Associate political science professor Loren Gatch commented on the uniqueness of this round of primaries:

by Alex Gambill This week President Bush met with leaders in the Middle East to talk about what else, but stability and oil. We are or going to experience a likely recession according to Alan Greenspan, former Chairman of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Now Bush is groveling to the Saudis to lower the price of oil while CEOs of American oil companies are making record salaries and their companies make record profits. . President Bush can hold King Abdulah's hand in public as he did in Crawfor, Tex., in April 2005, but the king's oil minister Ali al-Naimi said they will not put an influx of oil on the market that would lower the price just yet. Why is he waiting until his last year as president to solve the oil crisis? With the recent presidential debates and primaries, candidates from both sides have been emphasizing the economy, energy and our disastrous occupation of Iraq. There is speculation that with a recession the consumption of oil will decrease. I've seen the prices triple during Bush's presidency and for the most part, Americans keep on driving so Kudos to you Mr. Oilman with your bloated pockets. However, it's nice to see

PRIMARIES from page 1 "This primary is one of the most interesting competitive rounds that we've seen in a generation because both parties don't have an anointed frontrunner and there's no incumbent running," he said. With Vice President Dick Cheney known to be out of the race for years, the Republican field is fluid and open, Gatch said. Gatch pointed out that the competition on the Republican side is interesting as it reflects a weakening of the Republican Party coalition that has governed this country with success for the most part for the last 25- or 30 years. "The economic conservatives, the social conservatives and the national security conservatives, all of whom worked cohesively, are now finding candidates on the Republican side that correspond to their respective priorities," Gatch said. "There is no one candidate that represents an amalgamation of those three; maybe Romney, but he's got some

first for American politics," he said. Criminal justice senior John Flores disagrees with that assessment. Flores believes right now Clinton and Obama have a strong chance to win the primaries, but sees that in a negative light for the Democratic Party. "If Clinton or Obama

receive the Democratic nomination, neither one of them will win the general election due to being African American and female and a Republican candidate will become president," he said. Gatch noted that the Democratic side of the primaries is probably more interesting as there are two strong candidates who are struggling. "Their differences are not great, although they do try to accentuate their differences." As much as they try to highlight their differences, their differences are small compared to the Republican side, where Huckabee faces problems from economic conservatives who have problems with what he stands for, Gatch said. McCain, while gaining strength, also troubles the party regulars because he's taken some unorthodox views and he's got his own mind, according to Gatch. McCain worked with WisppnOn Sen.

"If momentum matters in these primary contests, particularly because they're frontloaded to the beginning of the year, then unfortunately these early races take on an added value. Gatch added that "there's been a gathering cloud of bad economic news which is going to cause the candidates to scramble to recalibrate their messages and focus their messages on possible remedies for an economic slowdown or even for a recession." "That's not something that was in the cards a few months ago, when people thought the election was going to be focused on the Iraq invasion," Gatch said. Next up are the caucuses in Nevada for both parties on Jan. 19. Republicans have their primary that same day in South Carolina, while Democrats hold their primary in the state on Jan. 26.

ARMY STRONG:

LAS VEGAS (AP) _ An angry judge doubled O.J. Simpson's bail to $250,000 on Wednesday for violating terms of his original bail by attempting to contact a codefendant in his armed robbery case. Simpson, clad in jail attire, grimaced as the amount was announced and meekly acknowledged that he understood. "I don't know Mr. Simpson what the heck you were thinking — or maybe that's the problem — you weren't," Clark County District Court Judge Jackie Glass told Simpson. "I don't know if it's just arrogance. I don't know if it's ignorance. But you've been locked up at the Clark County Detention Center since Friday because of arrogance or ignorance — or both." Glass said that the initial court order to not contact other defendants was clear and she warned that if anything else happened Simpson would be locked up. Simpson was picked up by his bail bondsman, Miguel Pereira of You Ring We Spring, in Florida on Friday and was brought back to Nevada on allegations he vio-

lated terms of his release. The district attorney charged that Simpson left an expletive-laced phone message Nov. 16, telling Pereira to tell co-defendant Clarence "C.J." Stewart how upset

"I don't know, Mr. Simpson, what the heck you were thinking — or maybe that's the problem — you weren't." District Court Judge Jackie Glass

Simpson was about testimony during their preliminary hearing. , "I just want, want C.J. to know that .:. I'm tired of this (expletive)," Simpson was quoted as saying. "Fed up with (expletives) changing what they told me. All right?" Pereira testified during the bail hearing but the recording was not played despite the prosecution's attempt to do so. Simpson attorney Yale Galanter immediately said that Simpson made the call and the judge did not allow the recording to be heard. Stewart and fellow codefendant Charles Ehrlich did not have to appear for the

hearing and remain free on bail. The three men pleaded not guilty Nov. 28 to kidnapping, armed robbery, assault with a deadly weapon, burglary, coercion and conspiracy charges. A kidnapping conviction could bring a life sentence with the possibility of parole. An armed robbery conviction carries mandatory prison time. Three other former codefendants have pleaded to lesser charges and testified against Simpson at a previous hearing. Simpson has denied any knowledge about guns being involved in the confrontation with memorabilia dealers Bruce Fromong and Alfred Beardsley. He has said he intended only to retrieve items that had been stolen from him by a former agent, including the suit he wore the day he was acquitted of murder in 1995 in the slayings of his wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ronald Goldman.

'Juno,' one of the best movies of 2007 audience of any other character. It's important that Garner plays Vanessa as excellently as she does, since a less than superb performance would have ruined the movie, since so much of the thematic elements and the emotional response of the audience depends on Vanessa being such a dynamic character. The script is excellent. It's funny without relying on oneoff jokes. The humor of the movie taps into something fundamentally human and makes an otherwise harrowing journey bearable. There's very little to dislike about this movie. Just about everything in it is good. I would have liked to see more interactions between Juno and Bleeker in the middle of the movie, if only to highlight the relationship between them. Somewhere in the middle of the movie, Bleeker drops out for a while, and his return is pretty awkward. Maybe that's what the writers intended, but it doesn't help develop the relationship between the two. Also, Rainn Wilson's cameo as a drug store clerk is disappointingly brief. While an extra scene wouldn't have added much to the story, it still would have been. funny. "Juno" is an excellent movie. It's funny, human and poignant. It's a movie everyone should take the time to see.

by Justin Langston Senior Staff Writer

At this point, it seems almost routine to say Fox Searchlight Pictures has brought out another quirky, intelligent and poignant movie. Someone at that studio has a real eye for talent. However, the latest from the studio, "Juno," is probably the best movie from that studio and is one of the best movies released in the past year or so. "Juno" is about Juno Macguff (Ellen Page), sixteen year-old, still cute enough to be a pretentious high schooler that decides to sleep with her best friend Paulie Bleeker (Michael Cera) one night. A couple of months, and her weight in Sunny D later, Juno finds out she's pregnant from the encounter. Psychologically unable to get an abortion, Juno decides to find a loving couple that will adopt her unborn child, and she finds Mark (Jason Bateman) and Vanessa (Jennifer Garner), a mid-thirties childless yuppie couple to take the child. The writing, directing, acting and storytelling of "Juno" are all wonderful. It's a sweet tale of teenage pregnancy told with a sense of honesty, teenaged angst and love that is lacking with the typical Hollywood movie about teen pregnancy. Juno is eternally lovable. She's pretentious, but cute and young enough to get away with it, and has a real heart. Page plays Juno flawlessly, giving the character the emotional depth and honesty needed for such a story. The movie does an excel-

lent job of playing on the audience's perceptions. At the beginning, Vanessa seems obsessive and especially uptight, particularly when compared to her husband and Juno. Of -course, this is due more to her insecurity and own angst of not being able to have a child than any obsession with being a mother, as well as the audiences own perception of what's "cool" and acceptable. There's no actual change in the character, simply a change in the audience's perception. It's actually a rather unique

way of making a movie. The characters, with the exception of Juno herself, are all fairly static, but each character is different from how they were at the beginning, or at least perceived differently. The audience gets to see the characters as multi-faceted people rather than characters that exist solely for the reasons of the plot. Garner, who probably gives the best performance I've seen from her, really makes the movie as Vanessa. Next to Juno, Vanessa pulls the most emotion out of the

Pulitzer-winning photos on display by Jordan Richison Staff Writer

A picture says a thousand words and a new exhibit at the International Photography Hall of Fame brings that statement to life with some of the most iconic images of the past 65 years. "Capture the Moment: The Pulitzer Prize Photographs" is a collection of some of the most comprehensive display of Pulitzer Prize-winning photographs ever shown in the United States. The Pulitzer Prize for photography is given annually by Columbia University to distinguished photography. The photography prize is given in two categories each year — spot/breaking news and fea-

Lure. Each year, more than 2,000 entries are submitted and 90 judges serve on 20 juries and make three nominations for the 21 Pulitzer Prize categories. The exhibit features 138 award-winning images since 1942 through 2007, which includes many photos from historic moments that are instantly recognizable, especially war-related photos from around the world. Visitors to this exhibition will see the most extensive and dramatic traveling displays ever mounted at the museum. Photographic images, 3 ft. by 2.5 ft., are arranged chronologically, filling the entire IPHF gallery. Each

Global Competency opens March 4 by Nelson Solomon Staff Writer The Centre for Global Competency, led jointly by the Division of Academic Affairs and the Division of Student Affairs, will have its grand opening on March 4, according to Dennis Dunham, director of the International Student Services office and the Centre. The centre will provide "the opportunity to connect UCO students to the world," according to Dunham. "A lot of our students are international students, and have had the experience, but we have the remaining students who have not had international experiences, and so we want to provide that for them," Dunham said. The centre will also provide a vehicle that will connect international students with non-international students a little bit more effectively, Dunham added. The group identifies Global Competency as "a transformational experience of character," that cultivates key characteristics in students like intellectual flexibility, multicultural awareness, creativity, a sense of service to the community, and many more. "We also allow students the opportunity to study abroad, and that's a part of our bigger picture, where we'll offer students something we call Global Certification," Dunham said. Students can earn Global Certification through an academic process which includes foreign language or a study abroad program and also a self-awareness part that involves a small paper, Dunhani said. "We are going to connect this certification to the community, basically expecting the community to recognize the certification as part of job consideration for the students involved," he said. Classes offered will allow students to be engaged more with international students. These classes will be confumed at the Transformational Fair, which will be held on Feb. 25 at UCO. "We'll be setting up partnerships with faculty, and it will be up to faculty to determine which classes will be offered," Dunham said. The Centre hopes that by March 4 the classes are set up, the certification process is in place and a couple of study abroad programs are set up, according to Dunham. Dunham pointed out that study abroad programs

PHOTO from page 4 photo is accompanied with text that tells the story behind each photograph. "The images in 'Capture the Moment' are a testament to the importance of photography in reporting world events," IPHF director Katie Sutton said. One of the more recognizable photos at the exhibit is Joe Rosenthal's 1945 World War II photograph of the raising of the flag over Mount Suribachi on Iwo Jima. Other noticeable images in the collection is Nathaniel Fein's shot of Babe Ruth at his number retirement by the Yankees and John Filo's 1970 photo of a girl crying out for help during the Kent State Massacre. The amazing thing about these photos is that these epic moments were captured by photojournalists doing their daily job. Many modestly claim they were simply at the right place at the right time. Robert H. Jackson's 1964 photo of Jack Ruby shooting Lee Harvey Oswald is a perfect example of that illustration. Jackson, then a

29-year-old photographer for the Dallas Times Herald, captured shooting of President Kennedy's alleged assassin at the exact time he was shot. The photo is one of the more indelible images in the collection. Two of the Pulitzer Prizewinning photographs were taken in Oklahoma. The 1952 winner shows racial tension being played out on the football field at an Oklahoma A&M game in 1951. The other image captured here in Oklahoma was taken by former UCO student Charles Porter of a firefighter holding Baylee Almon after the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building bombing in 1995. The well-known photograph has become oneâ&#x20AC;˘ of the symbolic images of the Oklahoma City Bombing. The exhibit runs until March 30 at 2100 N.E. 52nd St. inside the Science Museum of Oklahoma, formerly known as the Omniplex. For more information call (405) 4244055 or visit IPHF.org .

CANCER RESEARCHER DIES AT 74 by AP Writer BOSTON (AP) _ Dr. Judah Folkman, a groundbreaking researcher who worked to cut off cancer from its blood supply, curing the disease in mice and giving humans hope for a cure, has died. He was 74. Folkman died late Monday in Denver, said Elizabeth Andrews, a spokeswoman at Children's Hospital Boston, where Folkman was director of the vascular biology program. "I think he was one of the most important investigators of our time," said Dr. David Nathan, president emeritus of the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston. "Losing him is like watching a Roman candle go out." Robert Cooke, author of the book "Dr. Follcman's War: Angiogenesis and the Struggle to Defeat Cancer" said he died of an apparent heart attack. Folkman's research has led to 10 cancer drugs currently on the market that are helping more than 1.2 million patients worldwide, including Avastin and Thalomid. Dozens of other drugs based on his ideas are being developed. Folkman championed the idea that cancer needs a growing network of blood vessels to survive, and that blocking that process, called angiogenesis, will stop or even eliminate tumors. He was able to cure mice of the disease, and his work opened the door to a whole new line of treatment that has slowed the growth of cancer in humans. "Is it a cure? No, but his idea is to drive tumors into

Folkman, a groundbreaking cancer researcher whose work cured the disease in mice and gave hope for a cure in humans, died late Monday, Jan. 14, 2008. He was 74.

dormancy and for that, it works," Cooke said. "It's been turned into a disease like diabetes that can be managed."

Angiogenesis inhibitors also have shown success in treating not just cancer but other diseases, including

arthritis and diseases of the eye, heart and skin. "Dr. Judah Folkman is recognized by all as the father of angiogenesis research," Dr. John Niederhuber, director of the National Cancer Institute, said in a statement. "He never wavered in his passionate belief that the growth of new blood vessels was a critical factor to the process of cancer development and progression. ... His contributions are legendary." Folkman's research dates to the 1960s when he worked at the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Md., as a lieutenant in the Navy. He and a colleague, working with rabbits and mice, noticed that cancerous tumors stopped growing when removed from a body, then started growing again when implanted in another animal. "That was the clue that set him off," Cooke said. "He reasoned there was some barrier that stopped those tumors from growing. And after years of banging his head against the wall he realized that it was the blood supply." In the 1990s, Folkman's lab discovered two natural compounds, endostatin and angiostatin, that appeared to be cancer fighters, shrinking and eliminating tumors in mice. Folkman carried on his work in relative anonymity until a May 1998 front-page story in the Sunday New York Times, in which Dr. James Watson, the Nobel laureate and co-discoverer of the shape of DNA, was quoted as saying, "Judah is going to cure cancer in two years." "That set off a fuss, and

many of his colleagues were all upset because it was too radical an idea, they said it can't be all that simple," Cooke said. Folkman himself played down Watson's proclamation. "I don't think angiogenesis inhibitors will be the cure for cancer. But I do think that they will make cancer more survivable and controllable, especially in conjunction with radiation, chemotherapy, and other treatments," he wrote in Scientific American in October 1998. His discoveries prompted pharmaceutical companies to pursue research in the area, and some drugs have suc-

fellow researchers all over the world, Cooke said. "Not only was he a brilliant scientist, he's always been the most amazingly kind and generous man," Mandell said. Moses Judah Folkman was born in Cleveland, the son of a rabbi. His father made frequent trips to the hospital to comfort the ill, and it was during these trips that Folkman decided he wanted to become a doctor. He earned a medical degree in 1957 from Harvard Medical School, where he helped design one of the first implantable heart pacemakers.

"I think he was one of the most important investigators of our time." Dr. David Nathan

ceeded in extending the lives of patients with advanced cancer. "The work that he has done is now the basis of billions of dollars of research around the world," said Dr. Jim Mandell, the president and CEO of Children's Hospital Boston, who has known Folkman for three decades. Folkman's peers remembered him Tuesday as a doctor with an insatiable thirst for knowledge who never forgot that patients came first. He spent hours a day taking telephone calls and answering beeps from patients and

While in the Navy, Folkman also played a pivotal role in the development of devices placed under the skin that slowly time-released drugs, often used these days for birth control. Survivors include his wife, Paula, daughters Laura and Marjorie, and one grandchild. Memorial and funeral arrangements are pending.

Mitt Romney won the Michigan primary of the U.S. presidential elections and critics of the Republican Party say that the nation is looking at a party divided.

N D O M

On the Democratic side, Hillary Clinton's tears in New Hampshire have raised discussions about whether or not it's acceptable to cry at work.

Even during informal discussion sessions at the food court about elections, there is a clash of opinions. College students at UCO are as divided about the U.S. presidential candidates as the results of the three primaries already in the books. The general consensus is that there is a lot of talk about "change," and little specifics about what the "change" might be. The young citizens of the United States are very aware the candidates tailor their speech according to what they think voters want to hear. But in other countries, often, it is the other way around. "They will say what you don't want to hear and make sure that you listen," said a Nursing major from Kenya. The Kenyans students at UCO are distraught over the political upheaval that has taken

over the African nation after the country's recent elections, which are highly disputed. Former Mr. UCO International and Graphic Design graduate, Stephen Ondiek, updates his Facebook status to protest against what's happening in Kenya. The latest grieves the death of his close friend, Alvin Ndaga, who died during the Kenyan post-election violence. The Kenyan elections were openly rigged and it is very obvious that Mwai Kibaki wasn't really popular to begin with. Koki Muli, executive director of the Institute ror Education and Democracy, told the press she suspected the counting of the presidential ballots was deliberately delayed. Speculations also examine the possibility of thousands of votes being added overnight

ANDRO I DTA I NMENT

JUSTIN LANGSTON Its that time of year again. It's still cold and miserable outside, but the holiday season is finally over and enough time has passed for critics like myself to arbitrarily decide, based purely on subjective opinion, what was Game of the Year. Bear in mind, that unlike other publications or opinions, this Game of the Year is entirely objective.

My sources include my larger than Texas ego, a superiority complex and my unwavering and foolish belief that I am right. This column is brought to readers by being pretentious. Game of the Year for Playstation 3: "Uncharted: Drake's Fortune." Granted, it's really the only exclusive game I've played on the system, so it gets the award by default, but like everything else Naughty Dog has put out in the past several years, Uncharted is excellent. The game is something like a good "Tomb Raider," with an everyman, Indian Jonesstyle lead with Nathan Drake, which is something kind of new for video games. It's probably the best game on the Playstation 3 and a game everyone should check out. Game of the Year for X-

Box 360: "Mass Effect." Honestly, I almost thought this would get Game of the Year, but then I remembered something. One game was better. "Mass Effect" redefines how RPGs are played and perceived. It's sci-fi roleplaying with tons of replay value. The game is stunning, with excellent game play and new ways of looking at the genre. Even on my third play through, the game is still fresh, since I'm playing it a completely different way than I did the past two times. Game of the Year for Wii: "Super Mario Galaxy." I'll just say it: "Super Mario Sunshine" was just disappointing. Galaxy makes up for it by taking everything that was awesome about "Super Mario Sunshine," dropping everything that was broken, and taking cues from "Super

Mario Brothers 3" and the seminal "Super Mario 64" putting it all together and making an awesome game. "Galaxy" features some of the most well designed worlds of any Mario game, as well as some of the coolest traps in video games. Non-exclusive Game of the Year: "Assassin's Creed." "Mass Effect" revolutionized RPGs and "Assassin's Creed" revolutionized platforming. "Assassin's Creed" is easily the best platformer of the year, better even than "Super Mario Galaxy." The game is wonderful to control, has a deep story, and makes running around the city GTA-style more fun than it has ever been. It has deep, swashbuckling combat, great controls and moments where the player probably can't help but say "I'm Batman."

to the ballots since the votes in the Kenyan presidential elections exceed the results of local elections by a huge margin. News says Kenyans are seeking refuge in neighboring Uganda to escape the chaos that has taken over the country and the uncertain, political future of the nation. Another country still teetering on the edge ofthe political crisis is Pakistan. Bhutto's Dec. 27 assassination left many people shocked. The violence that followed thereafter had Pakistani students at UCO angry and worried. , "People have gone nuts! I talked to my mom and dad on the phone and they said there was chaos everywhere, they are looking for anything to break or set on fire. Protests, not just in Rawalpindi and Islamabad, but all over," said Hissan Haqqani, graduate stu-

dent in Human Resource and Wellness Management, soon after the incident. A threeday mourning period was announced and the country closed down. Contradictory reports about the cause of Bhutto's death followed in the aftermath. Finally, Musharraf gave in to international pressure and allowed British detectives to investigate her death. At this point, the postponement of the Pakistani elections from Jan. 8 to Feb. 18 comes as no surprise. Young Pakistanis are apathetic toward Pakistan's democratic procedure. They shrug and say it doesn't matter. Finance undergraduate, Umar Ali, said, "The elections will take place, but it won't be fair. It's never fair anyway."

Handheld Game of the Year: "Final Fantasy Tactics: the . Lion's War." Granted, it's 10 years old now, but that doesn't stop FFT from being one of the deepest, most innovative and challenging turn14ased tactical RPG ever made. lit ias everything the original Playstation release had, plus improvements, which include a story that makes sense now. Now, if only they could fix unit movement. Now that we're done with the console GotYs, which is kind of a silver medal, it's time to get down to the real Game of the Year. This year, it was pretty hard. Every game on this list, as well as a few others I didn't mention, is all runners for the gold. However, one game really deserves it more than anything. Game of the Year Gold Medal: "Portal." It says something about a game when it's worth beating the final boss just to hear that awesome credits song "Still

Alive." "Portal" is easily the best game of the year. Innocuously tucked in the "Orange Box" with more anticipated games like "Half Life 2: Episode 2" and "Team Fortress 2," Portal turned out to be the best. It has some of the most mind-bending puzzles in video games, along with some of the darkest humor in a game since "Maniac Mansion." The game is as close to flawless as I've ever seen, as even the brevity of it doesn't actually detract from how incredibly awesome it is, since that just means that final song is closer than ever. That game will screw with players, mess with heads and endear itself to the gaming community. It's also accessible for nearly everyone and extremely easy to play.

LeBron scores 51

Cleveland Cavaliers LeBron James (23) shoots a 3pointer over Memphis Grizzlies' Mike Miller (33) in the second half of an NBA basketball game Tuesday, Jan. 15, 2008, in Memphis, Tenn. James scored a seasonhigh 51 points in the Cavaliers' 132-124 overtime victory.

execute on the offensive end. We make plays, and we make big plays." It was the fourth time the league's leading-scorer has reached 50 points in his career. James made 18 of 28 shots and had nine assists and eight rebounds as the Cavaliers handed the Grizzlies their fifth straight loss. James' career high is 56 points against Toronto in March 2005. The 51 points matched the best scoring performance in the NBA this season. Denver's Allen Iverson had 51 against the Lakers on Dec. 5. "LeBron is fantastic," Memphis coach Marc lavaroni said. "I think he's got more passing ability than Magic (Johnson) because he can put it on a dime and with zip. It's a function of his ability to score. He allows people to get free. He's 6-foot-9, and he can see." In other NBA games Tuesday night, it was: New York 105, Washington 93; Detroit 103, Toronto 89; Atlanta 104, Denver 93; Orlando 102, Chicago 88; Philadelphia 111, Houston 107; Golden State 105, Minnesota 98; and the Los Angeles Clippers 97, Phoenix 90. Rudy Gay scored 30 for the Grizzlies, and reserve Juan Carlos Navarro went 6for-10 from 3-point range on his way to 26 points. Mike Conley had a career-high 20 points, and added seven assists. "Once again, it's a tough game to get over, losing these game by a couple of possessions," Conley said. "I thought we fought hard. We got the game back into overtime. We started off overtime pretty well, but they just kept fighting back at us and got the ball to bounce their way a couple of times." ,

by AP Writer LeBron James has made a habit this season of saving his best effort for the fourth quarter when the game is on the line. James scored a seasonhigh 51 points, including 25 in the fourth quarter and overtime, to lead the Cleveland Cavaliers to a 132-124 victory over the Memphis Grizzlies on Tuesday night.

He leads the league in scoring average in the fourth quarter with 9.4 points. Down the stretch in both regulation and overtime, Cleveland had him running the show. In addition to the 25 points in the final two frames, James had four assists. "We have a fourth-quarter team right now that's playing really gooabasketball,1%14mes said.

The Mitchell Report leaves as many questions as answers by AP Writer WASHINGTON (AP) _ George Mitchell's work on steroids in baseball is complete. Everyone else has plenty left to do, from Congress and the Attorney General to Bud Selig and Donald Fehr. Lawmakers want the Justice Department to investigate whether Miguel Tejada, the 2002 AL MVP, lied to federal authorities. Selig will determine whether Barry Bonds' San Francisco Giants should be punished for failing to report concerns about the home run king's personal trainer. The commissioner and union leader Fehr will meet for further talks about Mitchell's recommendations for improving baseball's drug program. And Selig vowed to look into the exponential increase in requests by major leaguers to be allowed to use stimulants used to treat Attention Deficit Disorder and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee that addressed each of those issues Tuesday plans to hold a Feb. 13 hearing that promises to be far more riveting, featuring Roger Clemens and his former personal trainer, Brian McNamee, who has said he injected the star pitcher with steroids and human growth hormone. Clemens has denied the allegations repeatedly and filed a defamation lawsuit. "Our work here is definitely not done," said Tom Davis, a Virginia Republican who chaired the same panel's 2005 hearing on steroids. "I think Mr. Clemens would want to come here and clear his name," Davis said after the hearing. "I think he has an opportunity to come up here and raise his right hand under oath."

These 2007 file photos show former Senate majority leader George Mitchell, left, union head Donald Fehr, center, and MLB commissioner Bud Selig, right. Nearly three years ago, Selig and Fehr sat before Congress and were chastised for holes in baseball's drug-testing policy. They'll be back in front of that same House committee Tuesday, Jan. 15, 2008, along with the author of last month's Mitchell Report on steroids in the sport. Taking on baseball's steroids problem once again, Congress kept the fingerpointing and tough questioning to a minimum TueSday. Maybe that's because the people under the most scrutiny this time — Tejada, Bonds, Clemens — were nowhere to be seen. Selig and Fehr accepted responsibility for the sport's drug boom, and Mitchell defended his findings in the same wood-paneled House hearing room that hosted a far longer and far more contentious session three years ago. Overall, Selig and Fehr found a friendlier audience than they did on March 17, 2005, when they were chastised and grilled for a lax steroids program. That 11-hour hearing is best remembered for Mark McGwire's infamous and oft-repeated phrase, "I'm not here to talk about the past," and Rafael Palmeiro's finger-wagging denial of ste-

roid use only months before failing a drug test. Tuesday's 4-hour, 15-minute hearing exposed what might be the latest drugs abused by the sport's stars: Ritalin and Adderall, medications better known for treating hyperactive kids. According to data provided to the committee by MLB and the union, a copy of which was obtained by The Associated Press, there were 35 • "Therapeutic Use Exemptions" for drugs in 2006, of which 28 were for ADD and ADHD medications. In 2007, the exemptions skyrocketed to 111, of which 103 were for ADD and ADHD. "We don't want abuse. We don't want guys taking Adderall to supplant their need for amphetamines," twotime NL MVP Dale Murphy said in New York at a debate about performanc.e-enhancing drugs. One of Mitchell's recom-

mendations was that baseball needs an independent agency to handle drug testing, and the data about ADD drugs supports that, according to Dr. Gary Wadler, chairman of the committee that determines the World Anti-Doping Agency's banned-substances list. "This demands an explanation. There's something fundamentally wrong them going from 28 to 103," Wadler said. "If we had this percentage increase in the general population, it would be on the evening news as a national epidemic. It's an outrageous number." Added Wadler: "I'm the guy who made the issue three years ago about amphetamines, and baseball said they didn't have a problem with greenies." Baseball banned amphetamines in 2006, part of sweeping changes to the sport's drug policy after Congress

intervened. "I'm proud of the progress we've made. I never delude myself, because I know there's always more work to be done," Selig said afterward. "But when you think of where we were three years ago to where we are ... I appreciated the response from them today." In his opening statement, he vowed to do more, including testing top prospects before the amateur draft. He also reiterated a willingness to test for human growth hormone "when a valid, commercially available and practical test for HGH becomes reality, regardless of whether the test is based on blood or urine." Fehr, in turn, said the union has agreed to "allow players to be suspended for HGH use based on evidence other than a positive test." • He and Selig said they met in December to discuss

the Mitchell Report's recommendations and•plan to meet again. "I hope we have all of this completed before spring training," Selig said. Indiana Republican Mark Souder, meanwhile, suggested there be "extra testing" for players whose statistics show sudden improvement. "I would think that would be a reason," Selig said, an answer the union likely would not agree with. Committee chairman Henry Waxman brought up Bonds, asking the commissioner whether the Giants should have reported their concerns about Bonds' trainer, Greg Anderson, and the slugger's alleged steroid use to the commissioner's office. "Of course," Selig responded. Pressed by Waxman about whether Giants general manager Brian Sabean violated baseball rules by not doing so, Selig said: "It's a matter that I have under review," perhaps hinting that Sabean or other team officials could face discipline. Waxman began the hearing by announcing that he and Davis asked the Justice Department to look into Tejada's statements to committee staffers when questioned in connection to Palmeiro's perjury case. In 2005, Tejada and Palmeiro were teammates with the Baltimore Orioles. Tejada was traded to the Houston Astros last month. "Tejada told the committee that he never used illegal performance-enhancing drugs and that he had no knowledge of other players using or even talking about steroids," Waxman said. "Well, the Mitchell Report, however, directly contradicts key elements of Mr. Tejada's testimony."
