Drum ensemble plays new beat

By Rebekah Rankin · Thursday, Nov. 14,2002 12:42 a.m.

Loud, overwhelming and powerful are the three words to sum up the first selection played by the Percussion Ensemble in Auer Hall Monday night. The ensemble, consisting mostly of drums and xylophones, was an awesome new sound. It was a different and fun type of concert compared to the sounds of a symphony band or orchestra that I was used to hearing.

Sanding the floor in our hearts

By Tom Whalen · Thursday, Nov. 14,2002 12:34 a.m.

Last weekend I downloaded a song. OK, so I pirate music -- get over it. I don't even know who sings the song, I only know the title: "You're the Best Around." You all know this song, and somewhere inside your head you're asking yourself, "How do I know that song?" It's the theme song from "The Karate Kid." The song that's played at the end during the tournament. "You're the Best Around." You know I'm right.

Sex wars: Domination

By Michael Tapscott · Thursday, Nov. 14,2002 12:33 a.m.

For a long time, I assumed that forming relationships was a completely arbitrary action. It was the outgrowth of being thrust into a situation with a certain person and dependent on how impressive you were to them. After four years in college, it has become abundantly clear to me that this is true.

By Abdullah AlShihri and Alan Fram · Thursday, Nov. 14,2002 12:31 a.m.

WASHINGTON -- The House voted emphatically Wednesday to create a Homeland Security Department, propelling President Bush nearer his goal of answering last year's terrorist attacks with the biggest restructuring of government in half a century. The 299-121 roll call -- and a pair of favorable procedural votes in the Democratic-run Senate -- signaled that lawmakers were ready to award a legislative triumph to a president whose hand was strengthened by Republican victories in last week's congressional elections.
