Rounder brings light to folk traditions

By Ryan Whirty and Ryan Wirty · Thursday, June 27,2002 12 a.m.

Cambridge-based Rounder Records has always prided itself on presenting the widest variety of traditional folk and roots music in North America. That difficult but admirable goal is represented by two of the label's June releases: One a live, two-disc set from Cape Breton fiddle player Natalie MacMaster, the other a compilation of 1930s aluminum and acetate recordings of spirituals and work songs from a tiny enclave of African Americans in South Carolina.

Spacey's latest old 'News'

By Amy Oringer and Amy Orringer · Thursday, June 27,2002 12 a.m.

It is a shame that this movie dropped off the radar of many moviegoers this year. "The Shipping News" received several Oscar nominations, despite its lower profile on movie screens across the country. But after watching the DVD, I can understand why people didn't get too excited over the concept of this film.

Black rules 'Orange County'

By -Alec Toombs · Thursday, June 27,2002 12 a.m.

"Orange County" is the rare teen comedy that doesn't play dumb for its youthful audience. That's not to say it's an extraordinary cinematic achievement, but unlike many flicks of its ilk, it's genuinely funny, has solid acting and boasts equal parts humanity and humor. Relatively ignored upon its release this past January (traditionally a dumping ground for Hollywood crap), "Orange County" is well worth a look now that it's on DVD.

By Alyson Brodsy · Wednesday, June 26,2002 11:18 p.m.

IU President Myles Brand admitted he and IU trustees have held meetings in small groups to evade Indiana's open meetings laws, a plaintiff in a lawsuit against the University said. While having meetings to discuss such things as budget matters and the much-heated former IU basketball coach Bob Knight issues, Brand and the trustees feel they didn't break the law since the meetings didn't involve a majority of the nine trustees.

Students pay the price for activities

By J. Chris Carmichael · Wednesday, June 26,2002 11:09 p.m.

With just a cursory glance at a bursar bill, students will find a wide variety of enigmatic fees, including additional course fees, technology and health fees. One fee that students may find particularly confounding is the student activity fee, which, according to the Office of the Bursar, is appropriated down to the very last cent to no less than 13 different activities and services.

Fans pay their respects to baseball's Darryl Kile

By Alex Hickey · Wednesday, June 26,2002 10:53 p.m.

Sunday night's game at Wrigley Field was supposed to be another typical tilt between the St. Louis Cardinals and Chicago Cubs. A packed crowd would house a nearly even mixture of supporters of either club, with plenty of good-natured harassment ready for the opposition. The match-up on the mound would pit the Cubs' Jason Bere against the Cardinals' Darryl Kile. But in life, nothing is set in stone.
