Life lost in the rubble. Houses of those in New Orleans were engulfed by the mass flooding. Everything but the roofs were underwater. Some fled to higher ground and waited for help while others laid trapped and buried under the mass heap of destroyed buildings. Due to lack of room, many of the injured were placed under bridges on makeshift beds. Once some of the water had receded, residents grew weary. With limited help, people began to fall.

Getting cut from a sport that you have been playing your entire life is not an easy thing to deal with, especially if it's your freshman year of high school. With a decade of experience under his belt, Eric Vaniman had been cut from the one sport he loved more than any other, baseball.

Pullman, WA- On Tuesday February 10, 2009 eight students started their campaign for a presidential and vice president spot on the Associated Students of Washington State University or ASWSU.
Presidential and Vice Presidential Candidates for this years election are Jake Bredstrand and Molly Aigner; Derick En’Wezoh and Jay Hendrickson; Ryan Mulenga and Sarah Driscoll; and Anthony Smith and Amy Hancock.
Tuesday’s debate was regarding the Greek System at WSU’s campus. The meeting was help at Kappa Alpha Theta Sorority at 7 pm. The topic that the candidates had to debate was the safety issues on Greek Row.
More specifically the candidates discussed lighting on the sidewalks, support from police and overall assistance on Greek Row and College Hill.
Junior neuroscience major and student regent, Derick En’Wezoh, said, “If elected, Jay Hendrickson and I will empower students with the resources they need to achieve their aspirations at WSU.”
Director of Administration and Academic Affairs, Sarah Driscoll, said that it should be the city of Pullman’s responsibility to take care of the problems that College Hill have, such as the lighting, cracked sidewalks, and poor lighting.
“I agree with Sarah Driscoll’s view in that Greek Affairs should assist in keeping the city accountable,” said En’Wezoh. “College hill, on an infrastructure level, hasn’t been properly cared for and maintained by the city.”
Junior finance major, Mike Calderbank, attended the meeting on Tuesday. “The questions they asked really allowed the candidates to express how they feel on several different topics that are very serious towards the Greek community,” he said.
On Wednesday, February 11, 2009, WSU’s newspaper, “The Daily Evergreen,” published an article discussing how the first debate went. Much of the article discussed that the candidates talked too much about experience and not about what they're actual plans were.
“The Greek Debate was our first debate,” En’Wezoh said. “It served as an opportunity for the candidates to truly introduce themselves to the students.”
“Although they stated that the debates were more personal than anything,” Calderbank said. “I feel that that is a good thing because it is experience that makes someone a good leader.”
A primary vote will be taken on Feb. 24, 2009.

Executive Order
An Executive Order issued on the morning of Feb. 10, 2009, by Gregory J. Heep, Pulltown Mayor, prohibits firearms on all property owned by the city.
The order follows the shooting on Memorial Day weekend that left three people injured.
“The city’s parks, community centers and events are safer without guns," Heep said. "We can’t wait for another incident, another innocent victim."
The order doesn't mean that the city will arrest people for violating the policy but instead fined for the violation. The first offense is $500; second $5,000; third $10,000.
A public hearing was held in City Hall later in the evening to allow Pulltown citizens to comment on the Mayor's choice of issuing the Executive order. 500 people attended the meeting.
Keri Calendar, 29, West Pulltown, brought a picture of her hand gun and held it up during the meeting. “I have the right to protect myself, whether it’s at home or in public," Calendar said. "Any sort of ban restricts my constitutional rights."
Comments that argued both sides were brought up by the community.
Carla Worthingham, 36, whose daughter was blinded by a drive-by shooting last June, stood for the issuing of the Executive Order. “It’s madness to bring guns to public gathering places," Witgubgham said. "It only invites disaster."
The city of Pulltown has been working very hard to reduce gun violence. Heep has already urged lawmakers in other cities to ban assault weapons, close the gun show loophole that allows criminals to buy weapons without background checks, deny guns to anyone who has been involuntarily committed to a mental health facility and require trigger locks and safe storage of firearms.
In the state Legislature, representatives and senators requested that state Attorney General, Rob McKenna presents an informal legal opinion for Heep's executive order.

Three 6 Mafia Concert
Pullman WA- Oscar award-winning rap group performs at Washington State University this Saturday in front of a sold-out crowd in the CUB Ballroom.
Junior Communications major Shayna Cole is one of the many students who waited in line on the first day tickets went on sale and within two days the tickets sold out. “I love Three 6 Mafia’s music. I can’t wait to see them in concert,” she said.
The Student Entertainment Board’s Concerts Programmer, Christian Kollgaard, knew that it would be a high selling concert. Kollgaard thought that he would bring something new to the table. He said he knew that students would like Three 6 Mafia because they are a popular group amongst the student body.
Junior Communications major Nico Clairmont also enjoys listening to Three 6 Mafia. He bought two tickets for him and his girlfriend. “Three 6 Mafia has some dope beats. Me and my buddies listen to their music when we pre-funk for parties,” he said. “Their music is also good for those long car rides back to the west side.”
Three 6 Mafia consists of two rappers, DJ Paul and Juicy J. Opening for Three 6 Mafia are rap artists Dirty Nasty and Andrea Legacy. Students might be most familiar with Dirt Nasty and Andre Legacy’s songs “1980” and “My Dick.”
To get Three 6 Mafia to campus the Student Entertainment Board paid $25,000 and another $5,000 for Dirt Nasty and Andre Legacy. With cost of the concert being so high the Student Entertainment Board needs to make sure everything runs smoothly.
With the 1400 people attending the concert, the Student Entertainment Board plans on hiring a crowd management staff or CMS to make sure everything is in line.
There will not be any bag searches or pat downs because it goes against CMS policies.
“CMS will be more on the look out for paraphernalia in the crowd,” Kollgaard said.
Three 6 Mafia’s recent achievement was their American Music Award for Rap/Hip-Hop music group. Some of their popular songs were “Stay Fly,” and “Lolli Lolli (Pop Dat Body),” (which won the award).
“I’ve been to a ton of concerts and I’m looking forward to adding Three 6 Mafia to the list,” Clairmont said. “When my roommates told me that they were coming to campus I as so stoked and I knew I had to get tickets.”
We hope that there will not be any problems and things go smoothly, said Kollgaard. He hopes that the concert will be filled with high energy and that everyone enjoys the Student Entertainment Board’s choice of groups.
