Radio program to educate on GLBT community, issues

·

Bloomington has long been a city known for its cultural diversity and artistic endeavors. Recently, these two traits combined for the creation of WFHB-FM's newest talk radio program "bloomingOUT," a radio program based on Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender issues.

Bush asks for wider anti-terrorism powers

·

WASHINGTON -- President Bush told Congress Wednesday to "untie the hands" of law enforcement officials and arm them with wider legal powers to combat terrorists, saying the groups that struck America two years ago are wounded but still dangerous.

Gaps still remain in security

·

WASHINGTON -- When a man recently stowed away in a cargo plane from New York to Dallas by shipping himself in a wooden crate, it raised questions about transportation security nearly two years after terrorists turned jetliners into missiles.


Nothing 'Special' about Identity's special features

·

An updated version of The Ten Little Indians, Identity combines the classic story line with a psychological thriller edge. When heavy rain floods the roads, 11 strangers are stranded at a motel in the middle of nowhere. One by one, people start dying, and a guessing game of whodunit proceeds.

BOOM! Madden '04 impacts market again

·

When EA Sports' "Madden 2004" came out, it had a lot to live up to. Players expected all their favorite features of the previous Madden titles, but with all the advancements we as video game players have grown to love from our favorite sports game.

We wanted the funk, and we got the funk

·

I of all people, am certainly not the most qualified to be reviewing a show by George Clinton & Parliament/Funkadelic. What knowledge I had of Clinton and Co. going into the show was this: P-Funk recorded the dope-ass likes of "Give Up the Funk (Tear the Roof of The Sucker)," "Flash Light" and "Atomic Dog" during the mid-to-late '70s and early '80s.


Easy does it for hardcore gamers

·

Nearly all of us have memories of gathering around an NES with friends when we were younger to play the hottest new games; classics like "Super Mario Bros.," "Contra" and "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles."


'Love' means having to be on a chain gang

·

Certainly, it takes only one listen to The Raveonettes to make the connection between the Danish rock duo and '80s alt-rock faves The Jesus and Mary Chain. Upon further examination, they implement guitars so awash in sheer noise that this may as well be the 21st-century version of Phil Spector's wall of sound.



'Rebel music from musicians not 'own'

·

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, whose name spurs from the Marlon Brando/Lee Marvin '50s biker pic, The Wild One, seems to have come into its own with Take Them On, On Your Own -- the band's second album. Many of my contemporaries wrote B.R.M.C. off as nothing more than a bunch of Jesus and Mary Chain rip-offs following its self-titled debut three years ago. Having never heard that record, I can't really speculate.


Sequel of same 'calibur' as predecessor

·

The weapon-based 3-D fighting of the "Soul Calibur/Blade" series has achieved an almost legendary status among gamers, largely because of the second entry, "Soul Calibur," and its exclusive release for Sega's short-lived Dreamcast console.



This 'noise' lacks personal punch

·

"You warned me that I wasn't ready for this," growls Shaun Lopez on the opening line to his band's debut single, "Bonethrower." When the debut is produced by nu-metal kingpin Fred Durst and mixed by rock veteran Andy Wallace, expectations for the release should be high.


Funny Man

·

Over the past 20 years, Bear's Place has seen its fair share of great comedians come and go, and as the school year begins, you can expect no less from the weekly "Comedy Caravan."


'Desperado' times call for 'Desperado' sequels

·

Being an avid fan of both Desperado and its multi-faceted director Robert Rodriguez, I very much wanted to walk into the theater and be blown out of my seat by Once Upon a Time in Mexico. Alas, it just wasn't meant to be.

Daddy's got a brand new bag

·

Matchstick Men is a movie that not everyone will enjoy, but if you like it, you'll love it. Dry, wry and dead-on funny, Ridley Scott's new film is a slippery little gem of a con artist movie.

Zevon's farewell album carried by The Wind

·

Some would say Warren Zevon was a prophet, a street-wise poet always ahead of his time, who seemed to know just as much regarding his own fate as he did the ways of the world. Others speak of an artist cashing in on the most cliched angle in the business.
