New Res Hall Questions Answered

WEST HAVEN—The talk of the campus at the mo-ment seems to be the new residence hall that has been under construction since the end of the last academic year. With room selection looming on the horizon, it only seems appropriate that the concerns and rumors be addressed. Thanks to the Office of Residential Life, I can attempt to accomplish this task.

Whenever I talk about the new residence hall, all I want to know is if it is still on schedule. Well rest assured, it is and parts are even ahead of schedule! This means that all of us who are interested in living there next year don’t have to worry about being able to move in on time.

Although there is still no name for the new resi-dence hall, Dean Johnson is asking for student ideas! If you have any good ideas please e-mail her at [email protected]. If you would like to stick to “tra-dition,” think of something t h a t b e g i n s with a B!

will also have two bath-rooms regardless of if there are six or four people living in the suite. There are two vanity sinks separate from the bathrooms. Each room will feature a full kitchen with a stove and refrigera-tor. The living room and

kitchen were designed us-ing open floor plans.

There will be a sustain-ability-themed floor in the new residence hall. For more information about what this includes, you can

Hollywood Celebrates Award Boom

Well its 2009, and with that comes new year’s resolutions, longer days, the inauguration of Presi-dent Barack Obama, and a month-long boom of award shows honoring the greatest films and television shows of the past year, and the ac-tors, writers, directors, and composers that have con-tributed to their success.

The biggest nominations this year are films like The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Slumdog Million-aire, Doubt, Frost/Nixon, and Milk. Actresses Ange-lina Jolie, Meryl Streep,

Anne Hathway, Kate Win-slet are nominated numer-ous times for Best Lead Ac-tress, Brad Pitt, Sean Penn, and Mickey Rourke have grabbed equal nominations

for Best Lead Actor, and Heath Ledger has ruled the top spot for Best Supporting Actor. Acclaimed Directors David Fincher, Darren Ar-ronsofky, Gus Van Sant,

and Danny Boyle have filled the Best Director seat for many of these award shows, and the top films have been nominated for their composed and constructed soundtracks to boot, spotlighting the works of Al-exandere Desplat, A.R Rahman, and Danny Elfman. Popular television shows like The Of-

fice, 30 Rock, House, Mad Men, and Brothers & Sis-ters filled up the nomina-tions for Best TV Comedy/

Campus Events, Etc.The Charger Bulletin | February 4, 2009

New Hall Squared. That’s what the new building should be called. But just my opinion, though everyone on campus was able to send in their thoughts on a temporary name for the new dorm. It’s great that the students had the ability to offer their opinions and hopefully something innovative will come from it.

Well we all hoped for it and we got it—a snow day! Snow, rain, and ice plagued campus and in return we didn’t have to go to classes. Or did we? Many people experienced the true awesomeness of Tegrity; quite a few professors recorded their lectures anyways and posted it in Blackboard. For the profes-sors that don’t use the technolo-gy, here’s a good example of how you can torture the students.

Whoa! The library has Macs! That’s a pretty nice upgrade see-ing as most of the Macs were in rooms that have limited availabil-ity.

We were warned about the siren testing, but man was it annoying! Maybe even worse than the fire alarms (didn’t think there was such a thing, did you?). But at least we can take solace in knowing we have a sys-tem that could wake even the drunkest kid on a Thursday night.

Good luck with this whole “Go Green” thing. It’s almost a joke to me having been here for four years and seeing the fights my friends have had to put up just trying to get basic recycling on this campus. What about all the plastic food services uses? And how about the heat that blasts while we’re not on campus? These

old buildings have absolutely no insulation, the faucets

drip, roofs leak—how can we sus-

tain without a s u s t a i n a b l e infrastructure? I’ve visited a few campuses in the past few months and we are quite a few centuries be-hind on going green.

Positives NegativesA weekly recap of the positives & negatives at UNH

By Dan Osipovitch

Letter to the Editor:In response to the Charger Battery “Negatives” last week.

In response to Letter to the Editor.

Last week I read that a sign here at the Beckerman Cen-ter “disgusted” the writer of the Charger Battery. The sign in-dicates that “instruc-tors reserve the right to refuse admittance to class to any person for any reason.” I just want to clarify that the intention of this poli-cy is simply to protect

both the instructor and the participants. Oc-casions can occur that may make it neces-sary to refuse admit-tance into a class but those occasions would absolutely never be discriminatory in na-ture. Our policies and guidelines have been developed in order to protect the best com-mon interest of the

students and members of the Beckerman Center. Should any-one ever feel we have acted discriminatory or disrespectful in anyway I strongly en-courage them to con-tact me directly.

-Mike Schneider, Director of Campus Recreation

Mike,Thank you very

much for responding, I enjoy getting feed-back from people who read my column. Now please keep in mind that it is an opinion-ated column, not an "article" per se. This said, there is some en-tertainment value and I'm quite well known for my sarcasm and my exaggerations. However, I do believe that I did not take it out of context, as there is no context that it is in. I do agree that you need to be broad in certain aspects but that the point can be made a little better. I really was taken aback

when I read the piece that said "any one for any reason." It leaves room for misinterpre-tation, which is the point I was trying to make. While I'm not a policy writer, I do feel there are better ways to express this point. For example, "Our instructors re-serve the right to re-fuse admittance while respecting the campus discrimination poli-cies." Or something such as "Our instruc-tors reserve the right to refuse admittance on the premise of promoting safety and health while minimiz-ing distraction and disturbance." The way

the words are written seem politically incor-rect to me, and again it is my own opinion. I do feel, however, that it is a fair judgment. I greatly appreciate your feedback and I hope you realize that I'm not "targeting" any person or policy, but just trying to relate my observations and opin-ions. My main goal is to start dialogue on campus, hence my sometimes harsh as-sessments. Thank you for contacting me and feel free to contact me again in the future.

Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow on Monday, Feb. 2.

ASSOCIATED PRESS

–––––––––––––––––

According to the United States military, four U.S. soldiers are dead after two aircraft crashed in Northern Iraq early Monday, Jan. 26.

Very little details about the crash have

Aircraft Crash Leaves Four Soldiers Dead

been released. Major Jose Lopez, a U.S. military spokesman, said that the cause of the crash is still under investigation.

This is not the first time an incident like this has occurred. Last September, sev-en soldiers stationed in Iraq were killed in a helicopter crash.

These accidents in-evitably raise the U.S. military death toll in Iraq, which has just reached 4,236 this week. However, the Associated Press claims that the major-ity of casualties are the result of “hostile action,” as opposed to accidents. Hostility in Iraq is also responsi-

ble for 31,004 injured U.S. servicemen.

The situation in Iraq is likely to change in the near future, as President Obama has already issued orders for key military of-ficials to devise plans for U.S. combat troop withdrawal from the area over the next 16 months.

Phelps acknowledges photo using marijua-na pipe

Michael Phelps is unbeatable in the water. On dry land, he keeps running into trouble.

Phelps has embarrassed himself again after a triumphant Olympics, this time getting his picture snapped as he inhaled from a marijuana pipe. The photo wound up in a British tabloid Sunday, forcing Phelps to publicly apologize and his handlers to deal with sponsors who are surely none too pleased about the swimmer's choices away from the pool.

"I engaged in behavior which was regret-table and demonstrated bad judgment," Phelps said in the statement released by one of his agents. "I'm 23 years old and despite the suc-cesses I've had in the pool, I acted in a youthful and inappropriate way, not in a manner people have come to expect from me. For this, I am sorry. I promise my fans and the public it will not happen again."

It all sounded so familiar, with good rea-son. After the 2004 Athens Games, an under-age Phelps was arrested for drunken driving, pleaded guilty and apologized to his fans, say-ing he wouldn't make the same mistake again.

This was different, to be sure, but it could have the same damaging impact on Phelps' image and reputation, which were riding high after he won a record eight gold medals at the Beijing Games.

Inspection reports from peanut plant varied widelyBLAKELY, Ga.—A Georgia health inspector who toured the peanut butter plant now at the center of a national salmonella outbreak noted only two minor violations in October. Less than three months later, federal inspectors found roaches, mold, a leaking roof and other sanitation problems.

Food safety experts say the lapse is a major concern and shows state inspectors are spread thin and might need more training on how to spot unsanitary conditions.

"It's surprising to me that that many major deficiencies were observed at one time, and none of these were picked up previously," said Michael Doyle, head of the food safety center at the University of Georgia.

In October, state inspector Donna Adams noted only two violations in her report on the Peanut Corp. of America plant: tote contain-ers with butter residue and "black buildup" and "mildew and possibly some static dust on ceil-ing of butter storage room."

No samples of the finished product were taken for salmonella testing during the Octo-ber inspection, despite a push by the state to check for the bacteria after a salmonella out-break was traced to another Georgia peanut butter plant in 2007.

Gabriel peeled back the wrapping paper to find the sur-prise of his young life — his father, an Army mechanic back in Ne-vada on leave from his second tour in Iraq.

couple treated open air diners to a 15-min-ute naked parade in Singapore, triggering both embarrassment and applause for a scene almost unheard of in the conservative city-state.

Pub manager Ter-ence Chia told the Straits Times newspa-per he saw the couple taking off their clothes Saturday night at a staircase in a block of flats in Holland Vil-lage, known for its popular nightspots.

"Then, clothes in hand, they coolly walked in their flip-flops toward the mar-ket," he said, adding when the couple did a U-turn a sea of spec-

tators was ready and poised with cameras.

"There were more than 200 people and everyone was taking pictures," the newspa-per Wednesday quoted Chia as saying. "Even women were busy clicking and people were cheering, whis-tling and applauding like crazy."

Police said the couple, a Caucasian man and an ethnic Chinese woman in their 20s, had been arrested and released on bail. If convicted under Singapore law, they could face a fine of maximum fine of S$2000 ($1,330), up to 3 months in jail, or both.

A KIMBERLY HARMON PHOTOProgress is made on the new residence hall as room selection nears for resident students.

con’t from page 1

check it out in the Housing Selection Packet available on-line through Black-board. There is also a recycling room on the first floor to encour-age more recycling among the students here on campus. Each floor’s study lounge/common room will be equipped with flat screen televisions. Corner rooms on higher levels will also get wonderful views.

The building is also LEED Certified. This is something that always seems to be brought up but nev-

er really explained. In trying to do some research on it, I dis-covered that LEED stands for Leadership in Energy & Environ-mental Design which is through the United States Green Building Council (USGBC). From the USGBC web site, “LEED cer-tification provides independent, third-party verification that a building project is environmentally re-sponsible, profitable

and a healthy place to live and work.” If you are interested on do-ing further research into what it means to be LEED Certified, you can visit the US-GBC website at www.usgbc.org and click LEED at the top.

The final biggest question I have heard regarding the new res-idence hall is the ad-ditional cost to live in it. On top of the nor-mal housing fee that we all pay, it will cost an additional $600 per semester if you choose to live in an apartment with single bedrooms or an additional $300

per semester if you choose to live in an apartment with double bedrooms. This has been voted on by the Board of Governors and is official.

Now here is a little information on room selection this year! Everything will be done online. Every student is enrolled in the Office of Residen-tial Life under My Or-ganizations. By click-ing on this link you can then click on the

documents link to ac-cess the Room Selec-tion 2009-2010 folder. In this is everything you will need to regis-ter for your room this year. It is a very easy to read and uses nice examples throughout. If you have any ques-tions after reading it, feel free to call the Of-fice of Residential Life at extension 7076.

Patty Christiano, the Director of Resi-dential Life, sent an e-mail to every un-dergraduate student regarding information sessions coming up in the next couple of weeks. I highly sug-

gest you attend one of these sessions if you have questions.

You can also feel free to contact me, the Residential Rela-tions Committee Head from the USGA. I can be reached through e-mail at [email protected] and also through www.ChargerVoice.com. I’ll find the an-swers to any ques-tions.

Inside the New Res Hall RECSports Makes Changes for Spring

Semester

WEST HAVEN—Welcome back to another semester of school, work, and RECSports! Season Three registration is up and running, so be sure to get your teams together and sign up. On that note, here’s a quick reminder of the sports offered in Sea-son Three: 5 v 5 bas-ketball, dodge ball, floor hockey, and whiffleball.

Joining a team and participating in REC-Sports is a wonderful opportunity for stu-dents, but these REC-Sports activities are really only the begin-ning to what RECS-ports has to offer.

In past semesters, there has been a con-tinuous racquetball ladder. The ladder was a semester- and even a year-long competition of sorts in which the object was to move up in the ranking by win-ning matches. With this tournament-

style play in mind, RECSports is excited to introduce more weekend activities this semester, includ-ing tournaments. In fact there will be a rac-quetball tournament on Saturday, Feb. 21. Registration will be the day of starting at 11 a.m. and ending at noon. Following the racquetball tourna-ment there will be a free throw contest on Saturday, Feb. 28.

With all these new activities outside of regular season play it could be difficult to keep track of what’s going on in RECS-ports. So if you are ever unsure of what’s going on and when it’s happening, be sure to check out our web site(http://www.ne-whaven.edu/Charger-REC). The website is updated regularly and new pages have re-cently been added. On the RECSports page of the ChargerREC website is a whole new photo gallery page with a hundred pictures from Sea-sons One and Two.

For those RECSports team managers out there, the Manager’s Manual is now avail-able online as well as all the other forms and rules for playing in the league sports. Coming in the next few weeks will be a page with up-to-date standings on all the currently active sports. If you want or need any information on any of the activities offered by RECSports all you have to do is check out our website, which is available 24/7 from any computer with internet access. So please use this in-valuable resource.

RECSports has a lot to offer from re-turning league sports to new weekend tour-naments, but the pro-gram is always look-ing to grow. With that in mind there is now a RECSports survey on-line for comments and suggestions. So let us know what you want in our survey.

Be sure to have fun with RECSports this semester!

EditorialsThe Charger Bulletin | February 4, 2009

Zack RosenAssistant Editor

Complaining Is...Well...Necessary!There are so many

people who complain about the way things are, or should be, but don’t complain to the right people. Have a problem with the way your professor is talk-ing to people in class? You complain to your friends, not the dean. Having a problem with the former vend-ing machines in Max-cy Hall being replaced with park benches? You complain to your roommates instead of submitting a request on Charger Voice. Mad at something that President Obama is thinking of signing into law? You com-plain in a blog post in-stead of writing your representatives and senators.

The worst part about this misdirected complaining is that it

has always been this way. For as long as I can remember, people

all around me com-plain that things aren’t the way they want. And then they stop right there!

I’m far from per-fect, and I certainly do my fair share of com-plaining to the wrong people. But most of you know that I am pretty good at com-plaining, especially for positive change.

So this week’s edito-rial is going to be a nice little tutorial for all of you.

Step One: Identify. Figure out exactly what is pissing you off, and put it into words. For me, it’s the replacement of vend-ing machines for park benches in Maxcy. (They didn’t even re-place with THREE benches, as there were three vending ma-chines. Psh. Rip-off.)

Step Two: Coor-dinate. Decide who would be the best per-son to ultimately com-plain to. So, in my ex-ample, that would be somebody in facilities here at UNH. (Read up, guys!)

Step Three: Vent. Find some friends and peers, and complain to them about it first. Unfortunately, this

is where most of us will stop. (Bitching, bitching, bitching, vent, vent, vent. Okay, what’s the next step?)

Step Four: Get backup and reinforce-ments. You don’t want to be the only one to be vocal about the problem. Nobody will care if you are. Get some friends to sign a petition, write editori-als and letters to the editor at The Charger Bulletin, or find some faculty/staff members here who agree with you. (“Reinforcements have arrived.” Any-one else remember the “Worms” games?)

Step Five: Com-plain! Come on, we were all born with this amazing talent. Write a letter, fill out a Char-ger Voice complaint, or make a phone call or office visit! (Char-

ger Voice can be found online at www.Char-gerVoice.com.)

Do I think that the vending machines will be replaced in Max-cy Hall? Not really. Park benches are, of course, more aestheti-cally pleasing. But I can rest easy knowing that I at least filled out a Charger Voice com-plaint! Maybe in the next few weeks I’ll go a step further and give facilities a call or e-mail. But even if my ultimate goal is a failure, I at least tried. And now, with this handy–dandy Zack’s Complaint Guide, you can too!

If something is bothering you on this campus–anything at all–all you have to do is click the “Post a Concern” link on the left and fill out

the form. Our USGA President, Louis Es-wood III, will do his job and look into the matter for you. You appointed him for a reason, and he will gladly use his position to better the student body. If you don’t complain, he can’t help you. You need to help yourself first. So make sure you have an idea of what you need, and things will get done. In the words of politician, educa-tor, and author Shir-ley Chisholm, “you don't make progress by standing on the sidelines, whimper-ing and complaining. You make progress by implementing ideas.” Implement your ideas by complaining about things you disagree with. It’s your right -- and prerogative.

AN AP/WINSLOW TOWNSON PHOTO

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kurt Warner reacts after a turnover near the end of the NFL Super Bowl XLIII football game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Sunday, Feb. 1, 2009, in Tampa, Fla. The Steelers won 27-23.

Steelers Rally to Beat Cardinals 27-23

TAMPA—The win-ning play of the Super Bowl was right out of a schoolyard.

Scamble right, scramble left, find someone open.

The perfect un-scripted ending to a game of improbable swings.

Their Steel Cur-tain shredded, Ben Roethlisberger and Santonio Holmes im-provised the 6-yard touchdown with 35 seconds left that gave the Pittsburgh Steel-ers a record-setting sixth Super Bowl vic-tory, 27-23 over the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday night.

"Great players step up in big-time games to make plays," said Holmes, the game's MVP. He said he told Roethlisberger that he "wanted to be the guy to make the plays for this team."

And he was.Holmes grabbed

the ball with both arms stretched fully above his head in the back right corner of the end zone, his toes barely dragging in-bounds. He fell, sat up and cradled the ball like the prize it was.

This thriller cer-tainly matched last year's upset of the New England Patriots by the New York Gi-ants that ended with Plaxico Burress' TD catch — with 35 sec-onds left, too.

But this one was even wilder. With the last tension-packed seconds ticking away, a kneeling Roeth-lisberger held coach Mike Tomlin's hand as Kurt Warner led one last, but futile, drive.

"These guys just don't blink," Tomlin

said. "They deliver. It's never going to be pretty or perfect, if you will, but they have a great deal of resolve."

The Steelers (15-4), winning their sec-ond Super Bowl in

touchdown 100 per-cent," Holmes said, even though it had to withstand a video re-view. "My feet never left the ground. All I did was stand up on my toes and extended my hands."

Warner hit All-Pro receiver Larry Fitzgerald in stride for a 64-yard touchdown and the lead. Already owning a slew of postseason receiv-ing marks this year, Fitzgerald sped down the middle of the field, watching himself out-run the Steelers on the huge video screen.

Fitzgerald could only watch from the sideline as Roethlis-berger engineered a 78-yard drive to win it in what resembled Heinz Field South. With waves of twirl-ing Terrible Towels turning Raymond James Stadium into a black-and-gold tab-leau — Steelers fans supporting their be-loved team, the econ-omy be damned — Pittsburgh's offense rescued the title.

The stunning swings overshadowed Pittsburgh linebacker James Harrison's re-cord 100-yard inter-ception return for a touchdown to end the first half. That looked like the signature play until the final quar-ter, when both teams shook off apparent knockout punches to throw haymakers of their own.

Big Ben and Holm-es struck the last blow, and when Warner fum-bled in the final sec-onds, the Cardinals' dream of winning their first NFL crown since 1947 were gone.

"I said it's now or never, I told the guys all the film study you

put in doesn't matter unless you do it now," Roethlisberger said. "I'm really proud of the way they respond-ed."

The Cardinals (12-8), playing in their first Super Bowl and

first championship game of any kind since 1948, lost their composure after Har-rison's heroics. They had three penalties to keep Pittsburgh's 79-yard drive going, a 16-play march that ended with Jeff Reed's 21-yard field goal for a 20-7 lead.

And they couldn't get Fitzgerald free un-til very late. But boy did he get free.

The All-Pro who already had set a post-season record for yards receiving and had five touchdowns in the playoffs was a nonen-tity until an 87-yard fourth-quarter drive he capped with a leap-ing 1-yard catch over Ike Taylor. He made four receptions on that series on which War-ner hit all eight passes for all the yards.

And then he struck swiftly for the

64-yarder that put Ar-izona within minutes of a remarkable vic-tory — a victory that never came because of the resilience of this Steelers team.

"I'm disappointed for our team," said

C a r -d i n a l s c o a c h K e n Whisen-h u n t , the of-fensive coordi-nator in P i t t s -b u r g h when the S t e e l -ers won the 2005 t i t l e . "This is a group of men that I'm v e r y p r o u d of. They p l a y e d v e r y

hard in circumstances where nobody be-lieved in them.

"We learned a lot about our team, it's just unfortunate it had to come out that way."

Pittsburgh looked like the offensive jug-gernaut to open the game, smoothly driv-ing 71 yards in eight plays. But the 72nd yard that would have given the Steelers a touchdown never came.

It looked like it had when Roethlisberger's short run was ruled a TD. Whisenhunt chal-lenged, and the score was overturned, leav-ing Tomlin his first difficult decision.

He took the points, Reed's 18-yard field goal, the shortest in a Super Bowl since 1976.

After forcing a punt, the Steelers kept

the ball the remainder of the first quarter — 11:28 in all, outgain-ing Arizona 140-13, getting seven first downs to one for the Cardinals. As Warner and the usually potent Cardinals' offense watched, frustrated, from the sideline, Pittsburgh plowed it in on Gary Russell's 1-yard run to make it 10-0.

When Arizona finally got the ball back, it knocked the Steelers off balance with short passes — and one huge play.

Warner, handed the NFL Man of the Year trophy just before kickoff, then hit An-quan Boldin streak-ing from left to right. He was upended at the Pittsburgh 1, and Warner's lob to Ben Patrick got Arizona on the board. It was the tight end's first touchdown this sea-son.

Arizona's defense then emulated the Steel Curtain with a big play. Bryan Rob-inson tipped Roeth-lisberger's pass high into the air and Kar-los Dansby corralled it at the Pittsburgh 34. The Cardinals got to the 1, then, perhaps jealous, the Steelers' D asserted itself — magnificently.

Harrison, the de-fensive player of the year, stepped in front of Boldin at the goal line, picked off War-ner's throw and be-gan a journey down the right sideline that ended as the longest play in Super Bowl history.

Harrison ran past or through most of the Cardinals, nearly stepped out of bounds at one point, and was dragged down by

Awards kicked off the rush on Jan. 8, which aired live on Vh1 from the Santa Monica Civic Au-ditorium. The event was sponsored by the Broadcast Film Crit-ics Association, and nominees and win-ners were compiled from groups of film critics. The Critics Choice Awards isn't really well regarded by most actors, as host Jason Alexan-der said, “This pres-tigious event where critics kiss the asses of the stars, whose asses they spend the rest of the year kick-ing to the curb.”

Anne Hathaway took the award for Best Lead Actress for her role in Ra-chel Getting Married, while Mickey Rourke won for Best Lead Actor (The Wrestler), and Slumdog picked up many awards and Best Film.

The Golden Globes, with some choppy production work and awkward camera close-ups of the nominees, aired live on NBC Jan. 11 from the Beverly Hills Hilton Hotel. Expected wins were Heath Ledger for Best Supporting Ac-tor (The Dark Knight) and 30 Rock for Best Comedy Television series, but Colin Far-rell headed the big-gest upset when he won for Best Lead Actor (In Bruges). Kate Winslet was the star of the night, win-ning Best Support-ing Actress and Best Lead Actress, for The Reader and Revolu-tionary Road, respec-tively.

Award Season Honors Best in L.A.was in high spirits for the Screen Actor Guild Awards on Jan. 25 from the Shine Au-ditorium, an awards show where actors’ work is judged by their peers. It's an awards show where the actors, and ex-tended parties, are actually happy to be at-tending. The airing of the show was well-produced, and there were some surprising wins. Meryl Streep took the win for Best Lead Actress (Doubt) and Sean Penn won for Best Lead Actor (Milk). Both actors delivered some emo-tional and amusing ac-ceptance speeches at the podium. Slumdog won Best Film once

nounced. The event will take place later this month on Feb. 22 airing live from The Kodak Theatre in Hollywood and will be hosted by Hugh Jackman. The big-gest films of the year, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and Slumdog Million-aire, scored 13 and 10 nominations to-tal, respectively. The

makeup, and special effects. Best Lead Ac-tor will probably go to Sean Penn or Mickey Rourke, however I would love to see Brad Pitt finally win an award.

again and 30 Rock stars Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin contin-ued to sweep wins for best TV Comedy Se-ries. Happily, House's Hugh Laurie won for best male actor in a TV Drama show, “I actually had $100 on James Spader [Bos-ton Legal]. This is just not my night,” said Laurie during his acceptance speech.

Not too long be-fore the SAG Awards, the nominations for the 2009 Acad-

nominees for Best Lead Actress, Actor, Director, and such, followed suit with previous award shows for the most part.

Any kind of Oscar win predictions? Well, I'm sure Slumdog will take away an award for Best Film, howev-er, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button was so beautifully constructed that I'm sure it will be taking at least half of the awards it was nominated for, most notably for edit-

Justin Vernon’s revolutionary new project: Bon Iver (a French greeting for “good winter”) has put out it’s second of-ficial release since the critically acclaimed For Emma, Forever Ago put out by Jag-jaguwar in 2007.

The new release, an EP titled Blood Bank, has given Bon Iver a new opportunity to expand on his neo-folk style. His first al-bum had been record-ed and produced over three months solely by Vernon himself in a cottage in upstate Wisconsin with a few ancient instruments and some simple re-cording equipment, while battle a case of mononucleosis. Ver-non’s eccentric and in-depth personality has created a certain mystical aura around himself and his mu-sic. His fans fall for his music as much as they do for him.

Blood Bank fea-tures five new tracks that were not released with the For Emma, Forever Ago record out in early 2008. While the style is es-sentially the same, Vernon has started toying around with

Bon Iver Returns with Sophomore

Album“auto-tune.” Auto-tune is an audio pro-cessor created by Antares Audio Tech-nologies that uses phase vocoders to correct a pitch in an artist’s vocals. It is usually used to dis-guise artist’s vocal faults, but when over-dubbed and over-used it creates an interest-ing layering effect. Auto-tune has recent-ly become famous by the use of Kanye West on his single, “Love Lockdown.” Vernon explores the features of auto-tune on the track “Woods.”

“Woods,” even disregarding the auto-tune, is an interesting song in its own right. Like most of his mu-sic, he avoids the traditional folk stan-dard format of intro, verse, chorus, verse, chorus, etc. “Woods” plays like a hymn. All vocals and with no chorus, he seems to lull the listener into a sense of safety and relaxation. With the only lyrics being, “I’m up in the woods/I’m down in my mind/I’m building a still/to slow down the time,” it really brings you right there with him.

solo, he plays live shows with several other musicians, who mainly provide per-cussion and vocal back up. With the amount of overdub-bing Vernon uses on most of his songs he invites much of his audience to partici-pate in singing with him during live per-formances. He would

even pass out lyrics to his songs before the show would start. In an interview with Pitchfork, Vernon de-scribed his dilemma. "I don't want to be the guy with an acoustic guitar singing songs, because that's boring for the most part. The song actually needs 80-500 people singing or whatever the vibe is of that room, it needs

that fight."The bottom line

is that with Bon Iver, Justin Vernon brings a new originality to the solo acoustic scene that it has desperately needed for some time. Although he is cur-rently on an overseas tour, make sure to check him out when he comes back to the states. He is definitely worth the wait.

Indie Artist ReleasesAnticipated New Album

I love a movie with a good trick ending. The Sixth Sense when you first realized that Bruce Willis’ charac-ter was dead. Righ-teous Kill when the main killer of the story switched before your eyes. Even The Village, when you first notice that the villag-ers are part of some psychological experi-ment. Many movies, and their directors, are capable of pull-ing off a trick ending without having the audience feel as if they have been left in a cloud of confusion. This is not the case in the latest horror flick, The Uninvited.

With a decent cast (Emily Brown-ing and Elizabeth Banks), many ex-pected The Uninvited to be 2009’s first de-cent horror movie. The previews made it seem as if Elizabeth Bank’s character, the

Twist Ending Kills Uninvited

house nurse Rachel, would be the primary killer and plot device. However, at the same time, there was the underlying notion of creepy, gore-infested characters that crept out from underneath beds. The Uninvited seemed incapable of choosing a genre to associate with, mak-ing it hard-to-follow from the get go.

There were some points of The Uninvit-ed that were relatively clever. Alex, the sister of Emily Browning’s character Anna, was creative, exciting, and funny on camera. The storyline was interest-ing: Anna, having sur-vived a fire that killed her mother, starts to see dead people that were involved in the subsequent investi-gation. She suspects Rachel, her father’s new love interest, and starts to compile a way to get rid of the new burden and bring herself some emotion-al peace.

The movie, up un-

til that point, is some-thing definitely worth seeing. You can scare your friends in the the-ater when the graphi-cally creepy ghosts jump out and you can laugh when some of the lines are just a little too cheesy. The Uninvited has every aspect of a great horror flick for thirteen-year-olds (think Scream) until the very end. It was almost the per-fect Halloween movie that would make you scream and laugh at the same time. Until the trick ending.

I will not spoil the trick ending here, but it is quite possibly the worst plot twist in horror film history. So when you go to see The Uninvited re-member that while the film is definitely worth seeing if you enjoy a good thriller/horror flick, the ending will have you cursing the line “I see dead peo-ple” all the way back to your dorm room.

Oprah’s only good when she’s fat

Oprah Winfrey’s magazine O sold 1.1 million copies of its January 2009 issue. The boom in sales is suggested to be re-lated to the extensive media coverage of her recent weight gain. According to Perez Hilton, this issue of the magazine was the best-selling issue in three years.

The reigning queen of daytime TV has had problems with her weight for as

long as she has been in the spotlight. The media has always kept a close eye on her weight, watching carefully now that she has gained 40 pounds over the course of four years.

Oprah appears on O’s January 2009 cov-er and in its feature story on her weight gain.

The talk show diva sure has a way of us-ing media attention to its fullest. But se-riously, why on earth does everyone care

what her body wants. Don’t mess with natural curves, O!Britney wants the kids-on the road…

TMZ has reported that Britney Spears is threaten-ing to cancel her upcoming tour if K-Fed’s lawyers won’t let her take her sons with her.

Preston and Jayden James to stay in three houses (located in New Jersey, New Or-leans, and Los Ange-les) while she tours in the surrounding areas. She reportedly also of-fered to pay K-Fed to live nearby the three locations so that he could be close to the boys as well.

Unfortunately, Brit and her father, Jamie, made the deal with-out notifying K-Fed’s lawyers who might put a stop to the whole plan.

should just stay fat since that’s obviously
