Entertainment News

By Rebecca Leffler | November 10, 2003

After complaints from conservatives, CBS honcho Les Moonves is shelving the network's "The Reagans." It'll go in that big underground room where Dick Cheney is hiding. Porn actress Mary Carey is one of three adult film stars hosting a new reality show "Can You Be a Pornstar?" Good news for Monica Lewinsky. Oscar-winning actor Paul Newman made a "generous" donation to the southeast Kansas town of Franklin, hit hard by a tornado in May.

Big Green defense looks to have its way with Cornell

By Elliot Olshansky | November 7, 2003

It's almost a week since the Big Green football team turned the Ivy League on its ear with a 30-16 upset win over Harvard at the Harvard Stadium Centennial Celebration, and it's a good bet that in Cambridge, Crimson fingers are still scratching Crimson heads trying to figure out exactly what happened to their previously undefeated Crimson team. The answer, however, is simple enough: Dartmouth's defense happened. Of course, it certainly doesn't hurt that Charlie Rittgers completed 17 passes for 344 yards and earned the Boston Globe Gold Helmet award for his effort against the Crimson.

Why Dean Was Right

By Nicholas E. Heyl | November 7, 2003

To the Editor: I have listened today to the firestorm created by Howard Dean's remark about appealing to the "guys who drive pickups with confederate flag decals on them." I am appalled not by Governor Dean's statement but by the ridiculous misinterpretations of the remark by right wing talk show hosts and the other Democratic candidates for president. I have known Howard Dean for most of my life and I can tell you without any doubt whatsoever that there isn't a more inclusive individual in American politics.

Virus strikes campus computer network

By Zachary Goldstein | November 7, 2003

A virus is plaguing the Dartmouth campus, but this time it's not pink eye. In this case, it's a computer virus called the Welchia worm, which has infected 2000 computers -- nearly half of all student computers on campus -- and is drastically slowing down the campus network. In response, Director of Computing Larry Levine sent out a campus-wide BlitzMail yesterday instructing students of the steps necessary to diagnose and, if necessary, treat their computers for the virus.

By Megan Spillane | November 7, 2003

Phi Delta Alpha will face a test of whether or not it can function as a full fraternity this Saturday when it will host its first registered open party since the house was derecognized over three years ago.

By Colin Campbell | November 6, 2003

During the Bush administration, both monetary and fiscal policy have been expansionary, and the growth in real output in the past quarter of more than seven percent indicates that these policies were effective.

Diversity may curb binge-drinking

By Jenna Farleigh | November 6, 2003

High-risk drinkers -- generally identified as white, male and underage -- tend to drink less on American college campuses if living among high numbers of non-white, female or older students, according to a recent study published in the American Journal of Public Health. The study, conducted by the Harvard School of Public Health, surveyed students from 114 colleges four times between 1993 and 2001.

Volleyball gets second Ivy win

By Ben Reed | November 6, 2003

Despite an often frustrating weekend for Big Green volleyball, the team was able to avert disaster by pulling out a Friday night five-set battle against the winless Columbia Lions (0-16, 0-8 Ivy) before suffering a straight-set shellacking to Cornell (18-3, 8-3) on Saturday. Dartmouth (8-13, 2-8 Ivy) entered the weekend eager for an opportunity to enjoy a victory before a home crowd -- something they have been unable to accomplish this season.

Community supports residents of local motel

By Daniel Preysman | November 6, 2003

As White River Junction's Maple Leaf Motel closes its aging doors today, the Upper Valley breathes a sigh of relief. Just over a month ago, the low-slung brick motel that crouches just next to Route 5 sparked a flurry of news reports after landlord Dana Whitney sent an eviction notice to the 17 families who had made permanent homes out of the motel.
