A parade on Saturday through downtown Hanover featured pint-sized cars and men garbed in red fezzes, but it was only a prelude to the heated Shrine Maple Sugar Bowl that followed -- the annual football game between Vermont and New Hampshire high school students held at the College.

"Crash" is a determinedly challenging affair. It asks tough questions and refuses to provide easy answers. Exploring race relations in America with a sequence of altercations of every form -- white against black, Persian against Hispanic, black against Asian and every combination thereof -- "Crash" is often riveting and, at times, unsettling. While it does not approach the heights of Spike Lee's similarly-themed "Do the Right Thing" or Paul Thomas Anderson's fable of human interconnectedness "Magnolia," it is evocative and accomplished enough in its own right to merit a viewing.

Well, after all the rumors and big-time franchise names were thrown around like bags of ballpark peanuts up until mere hours before Major League Baseball's Trade Deadline this past Sunday at 4 p.m., the big story turned out to be Peter Gammons getting inducted into the Hall of Fame. The fact that the usual frenzy that encompasses Deadline Day was overshadowed by Hall of Fame inductions should be a telltale sign of unexciting stagnancy to even the layman.

First, I'd like to extend my congratulations to Mr. Belinsky for showing up to Concert for a Cause. I am glad he enjoyed the music. Concert for a Cause attempted to raise money for Doctors Without Borders to support their medical mission in the Sudan.

Anyone who watches television or movies can tell you that the one member of the American citizenry who remains a safe punchline (or punching bag, to be more accurate) is the American man. In fact, as the father figure becomes dumber, fatter, whiter, more outrageous and more laughable, a show's lasting power seems to grow or a movie's box-office take seems to balloon. Now, I personally do enjoy these shows and have even blown a considerable amount to get them on DVD, but they, along with many other sitcoms, comic strips and low-rent Hollywood comedies, are the culmination of nearly a quarter century of acceptable attacks on men. The worst part is that popular entertainment not only reflects acceptable values, but reinforces the notions of what is and is not acceptable.

Many students have seen the brightly colored "Consensual Sex is Hot" T-shirts around campus without knowing their origin, but this Friday, Consent Day will bring back to Dartmouth not only a stack of T-shirts, but also its message and spreading awareness again on Wesbter Avenue.

Everyone wants me to do it, and frankly I'd rather not! My teachers and mentors, my heroes and politicians, and now even the Rockefeller Center -- everyone keeps drumming the same message into my head. "Change the World" -- what a silly notion! And I really don't understand it. Have you seen it? It's really a wonderful thing, our world. Were I to concoct a slogan, I would probably pen something along the lines of "See the World" or "Explore the World." Here, I would maintain the cosmopolitan ethos, but change the impetus from something possibly dangerous to a thing more exciting -- like informing students of a world outside Hanover proper.

Karl Rove must be having a bad week. Not because of the Valerie Plame scandal, the allegations of ethically unsound behavior or even the danger to his job. No, I'm sure the real cause of Karl's sleepless nights is the debate about one of the nicknames our diminutive-bestowing president had given him. Not the flattering "Boy Genius," but the more graphic "Turd Blossom." Everyone else in the administration got cool names, since Condi is "Guru," Cheney is "Big Time" and Andy Card is the dangerous "Tangent Man." Even some dirty liberals have acquired cool monikers, like Barney "Saber Tooth" Frank and Maureen "The Cobra" Dowd. Apparently the only appropriately amusing nickname our president could devise for Ol' Karl involved potty humor.
