'Naked Pictures' in the Taco Bell

By Jessica Halverson · Wednesday, June 18,2003 8:09 p.m.

Too bad Jack White decided to guest on this album, thereby lowering his IQ by association. Electric Six's mixture of neo-hair-metal stupidity ala Andrew W.K., but somehow worse, is an exercise in blandness. You wouldn't think an album attempting to be chock full of adrenaline could be this vanilla, but with lyrics like "Fire in the disco/Fire in the Taco Bell/Fire in the disco/Fire in the gates of hell," and barely-developed attempts at keyboard coolness, Fire is all smoke.

The End of College Sports?

By Alyson Brodsy and Kevin A Switaj · Sunday, June 15,2003 9:12 p.m.

For the past two decades, the Big East has been the center of college athletics in the northeast. From its beginnings as a way to bring basketball powers like Georgetown, Villanova and St. John's better competition in the 1970s through the conference's expansion and inclusion of football in the 1990s, the Big East has shaped college sports in a section of the country where they are normally an afterthought.

Hunting for orchids

Sunday, June 15,2003 9:10 p.m.

ANGOLA, Ind. -- Within earshot of Interstate 69 and the Indiana Toll Road lies some of the wildest land in northeast Indiana's Steuben County containing rare lady's-slipper orchids. The treasure is so beautiful and rare that some people have been known to risk the poison sumac-tangled, Massasauga rattlesnake-infested, soupy bogs where the orchids live. Orchids hold a special, unexplainable mystique in the imaginations of many who establish clubs and societies around this wonderful creature. People collect them, trade them, grow them and brag about the ones they have seen or have acquired.
