...sent a mass e-mail to our membership (pirating the list he once had access to as a Board member) pleading his case and calling for a proverbial "call to arms." This violation of the Student Handbook is an offense subject to the Ad Board. We hope not to resort to such retaliation, and have since sought counsel from the Dean of Students Office. It saddens us that so much time need be spent on such trivial matters when we should be furthering queer visibility and life on campus. The elections have since been nullified (with the consent...
Neutral, perhaps, but by no means dispassionate, as one saw, even in distant Karuizawa, a chic summer resort that found itself the host for curling competitions. Not far from the Pension England House Windsor, the town held its very own opening ceremonies, with its own parade of athletes, its own concert of bagpipers and Japanese drums. As the competition got under way, the Kazakoshi Park Arena--not unlike a high school gym--was filled with Japanese primary schoolchildren, old ladies blowing Piccolo Mini Cheer Horns and a crowd of Canadians crying, "Come on, button boy.

...recommended he be stripped of his prize. Rebagliati admitted to having smoked in the past, but he asserted that he had not sparked up since April 1997, claiming to have ingested the offending substance as secondhand smoke at a farewell party thrown by several friends in his home ski resort of Whistler, B.C., on Jan. 31.

Bloodied snow led to purple rage in Italy last week after an EA-6B U.S. Marine warplane threading through a mountain valley at treetop level severed a ski resort's lift cable, sending 20 people to their death. "The skies are not for the most powerful or for the most aggressive," the Rev. Lorenzo Casarotti told mourners in the Dolomite mountain village of CAVALESE. "They are for everyone." The Pentagon will pay each family $5,000 for burial costs, and the crew could face a court-martial. Residents and Italian officials said that earlier complaints about low-flying military planes...
This past November, I finally broke the restraints of my collegiate exile with a trip to Foxwoods Resort and Casino. I hit the blackjack tables, that corner of the casino where so many poor souls hand over their paychecks. I proceeded to employ a tactic whereby I doubled my bet every time that I lost a hand. This approach is derisively known as "chasing a loss," and based on the structure of the casino's betting limits, it is statistically guaranteed to bankrupt the player--unless that player is extraordinarily lucky. And lucky...
