...this particular block, its approach to publicity--it's dropping $500 million this year on Xbox advertising--is a little different. The staff here can't wait to thrust a green-and-black Xbox into your hands, show off dozens of cool games--and loudly taunt the game spooks up the road. "Let's face it, Nintendo's system is for kids," says Robbie Bach, Xbox's gruff-voiced team leader. "We're for sophisticated gamers. I don't know any 30-year-olds who want a GameCube...
...Murphy should be demoted to the squirt league for his job in this game. Not only did he engage in the traditional ECAC practice of makeup calls, but his incessant use of the whistle denied almost any flow to these games. Moreover, when Jelenic went over to taunt Jonas and sophomore defenseman Aaron Kim came over to keep him in line, Murphy did the right thing by assessing Jelenic a misconduct, but he failed to give him a minor penalty. Therefore, Yale was rewarded by the sequence with a power play and the loss of a goon...

When Laetitia ventures outdoors, neighbors snub her, tough boys snatch her purse, children taunt her. Her own kids are tired of the sickness and don't like to help her anymore. "When I can't get up, they don't bring me food," she laments. One day local youths barged into her room, cursed her as a witch and a whore and beat...
...catchy title track, which opens the album, features the great chorus "And I've begun to hate the ceiling like I never loved the sky." The second track, "Taunt," a high-speed tune with only a few words, is more of a playful number. The epic "Daughter of the American Revolution" rounds off the album's quartet of songs. Throughout the album, Ensimismada remain listenable, without the off-the-wall sounds or unintelligible lyrics that affect too many student bands. B+ -Erik A. Beach
