goodbye, good times:
graduating editors say
fond
farewell
It
is safe to say,
looking
back; we def-
initely
did not know what we were get-
ting ourselves into.
As
long
as we have been at Marist
,
The Circle has been a part of our lives.
For four years we have spent every
Tuesday evening, sometimes extending
well into Wednesday morning
,
in
Lowell Thomas 211.
When we showed up to the Activities
Fair way
back
in Fall of 2002
,
we
signed up to join the campus paper. We
had no
idea how that small act would
come to shape the next four years.
We signed
up
to help with the
l
ayout
of the paper, and less than a month later
found ourselves Co-Editors of the News·
section
.
Forget that we were freshman;
forget that we were stil
I
trying to get
settled into our new surroundings
,
we
were basically thrown right in.
Ha
l
fway through sophomore year
when the editor-in-chief and
managing
editor stepped down
,
we were asked to
fill their
roles
and it is safe to say we
were definitely overwhelmed.
From
that point on, the past two-and-a-half
years ha"ve been a whirlwind.
We admit there are many perks to
being the editors of a school. Like get-
ting

Dennis Murray's home every year, and

pressconferences
when
Hillary
Clinton makes a

,
or
having
the ability to
secure press passes to every concert on
campus. However
,
trying to know what
is going on throughout Marlst campus
at all times can
be
a very,
demanding
task.
It is,
essentially impossib
l
e.
This is why we owe a tremendously
huge
thank
you to our entire staff of edi-
tors, both past and pre
s
ent and all those
who have
helped
us along the way.

on Wednesday mornings.
We have tried our best to serve the
Maris! campus and community and
thank you for your support as well as

and change over the past four years and
have been

The idea of college is cool.
We

tepid hometowns.

incredible things
about

and the uni-verse,
and be
introduced
to people,
culture
,
and ways of
life pre-
viously
unimaginable
.
Here's where things get
ugly.
College costs a crap-ton
of money.
There are some
smart kids out there who
could definitely cut
it
here.
But
the dumb/uninspired
ones
with rich parents
made it
instead, thanks
to an SAT prep

The first step is knowledge of

This column gives but a brief
look into the horrors that inno-
cent men, women, and children
are
forced to endure. There is
a
weahh of knowledge on websites
like
iablolish.com

savedarfur.org,
and

lionvoicesfordarfur.org, and oth-
ers, you
can
donate money to be
used for relief efforts in Sudan.
Be sure to do research before
donating to make certain that the
charities you choose
are

Another way you can help is by
lobbying

ernment. Write a letter, send an

Sexual Dysfunction afflicting younger age group
By
ALEXANDER TINGEY
Co-Health
Editor
Tum on any television and
you'll quickly realize that med-
ications aimed at treating erectile
dysfunction focus their advertis-
ing on a generally more mature
client base. However, the compa-
nies who manufacture the drugs
Cialis, Levitra, and Viagra may
want to rethink their advertising
strategy as recent studies have
begun to reveal an alarming
trend of sexual dysfunction
among younger men, a report
filed on Tuesday by ABC news
indicated.
The study began with 234 col-
lege-aged
males in downtown
Chicago after
Dr. Najah S.
Musacchio,
a
fellow
at
Children's Memorial
Hospital
in
Chicago
,
realized the
relative
lack of research in the field and
tailored the project to patients
whom
she
might
encounter in
her practice. Thirty of the partic-
ipants
involved in the study told
researchers that they had experi-
enced erectile dysfunction, and
25
percent of the study
reported
having lost
an
erection while
putting a condom on.
Dr.
Rufus Green Jr.
an
urolo-
gist at St. Paul's
medical
center
in Dallas, TX estimated that "in
the United States
today,
10-20
million men experience com-
plete erectile dysfunction (and)
another
10
million experience
partial
erectile dysfunction with
the majority of these men over
the age of 65
.
" While ED can be
caused by either psychological
or physiological factors, it is
important
to
differentiate
between the two. Most cases of
ED are
caused
by physiological
factors such
as
inadequate vascu-
lar
contfaction which
leads
to an
inability
to trap blood.
A
number
of outside factors
also influence the onset of ED in
men.
Smokers
and
heavy
drinkers are often among the first
men
of
their age group
to
experi-
ence significant ED. Some pre-
scription and illicit drugs can
also alter
an
individual's ability
to maintain
an erection. Among
the
psychological
facto~s
,
depression and stress seem
to be
the most commonly reported by
participants in
Dr.
Musacchio's
study.
The
report
is worth considering
because while
the
findings point
to a problem not usually associ-
ated with young
men,
they suffer
more from ED than
people
might
think. Estimates
range
that
between
25
and
30
percent of the
college age maJe
population
has
experienced one
form
of ED or
another and are not uncommon.
However,
Dr.
Irwin Goldstein,
a Boston-based urologist special-
izing in sexual medicine said that
if we were to examine the flip
side of
the
coin, "the
prevalence
of sexual dysfunction among
females
is
nearly
30
percent."
Of the males who reported
experiencing ED, none had spo-
ken to their primary health care
provider
.
Musacchio was con-
cerned because ED often
leads
to
other problems such as
depres-
sion, anxiety, and decreased sex-
ual
satisfaction.
Among the 234
participants
,
an
odd demographic started appear-
ing
as Dr.
Musacchio continued
her survey. A fair sized popula-
tion of participants who
had
not
reported any signs of ED told cli-
nicians that they
had
taken ED
medications in hopes of improv-
ing their sexual performance,
However,
as ABC news
illus-
trated through
an
interview with
Dr.
Ira
Sharlip, a clinical profes-
sor of urology at
the
University
of California at
San
Francisco,
healthy
young
men
using drugs
to enhance sexual performance
might
find
themselves
disap-
pointed.
"You cannot
make
a superman
out of a normal
man,"
Sharlip
said.
"If
a young
man is
having
normal erections, taking one
of
the meds will
not do
anything.
You can't
have more than
a
100
percent erection."
New study reveals large imbalance of fast foods items
By
KATE RUPPAR
Staff Writer
also from city
to
city
within the
same nation.
Hungary,
a large hot wings and
fries order had
19
grams or
more
of trans fats, versus
5.5
grams for
wings and fried potato wedges in
New York.
But in Germany,
Russia
,
Denmark and Scotland
,
the same meal has less than a
gram.
One of the great ideas behind
the fast-food industry is that
they're identical all over the
world
,
or
so
we think. A new
report on fast-food chains,
in
particular KFC and McDonald's,
shows that the french fries and
chicken served in the United
States contain much more artery-
clogging trans
·
fat than those
served in the rest of the world.
Not only can remarkably wide
variations in trans fat be found
fro9,1
one country to pno~er, but
Researchers say that the differ-
ence has to do with the type of
oil used for frying
,
and the prob-
lem
is partially hydrogenated
vegetable oil, which is high in
trans fats.
At a New York City
McDonald's, a
large
fries and
chicken nuggets combo meal
was found to contain
I 0.2
grams
of trans fat, compared with 0.33
grams in Denmark, and about
3
grams in Spain
,
Russia and the
Czech Rcputilic.
A large order of french fries at
a New York City McDonald's
contained
30
percent more trans
fat than it would at an Atlanta
McDonald's
,
Partially hydrogenated
veg~
etable oil is cooking oil that has

The appeal to restau-
rants
is that the oil can be used
over and over for frying,
it
does
not spoil, and it's a money saver.
By
switching
to
oils such as
canola,
com,
olive or soy, trans
fats can
be
eliminated, as seen in
Denmark with a
2004
law allow-
ing only miniscule amounts of
trans fat
in
food. Unfortunately

Ever since the birth of the
Internet in the early 90s our soci-
ety has been undergoing rapid
growth in how we communicate.
Now with online social networks
like Facebook and Myspace
peo-
p
l
e have adapted to a form of
comm
u
nication that is both con
-
troversial and ground-breaking.
As a Harva
r
d senior Mark
Zuckerberg devoted most of his
college nights to creating the
foundation for what would be
Facebook.
Facebook, unlike
Myspace, was originally created
so that Ivory League students
could interact with one another.
Soon, Zuckerberg expanded and
now Facebook has begun rival-
ing the massive international net-
work of Myspace.
Myspace is represented in aver
I
00 countries and is the most
popu
l
ar social network in the
wo
r
ld to date.
Both Myspace
and Facebook are enormous

popular with college and high
school students today and act as
a major forum for communica-
tion.
The massive amount of
profiles o

whenever it was time to go to

"He later sent me a message

Molina,

being used by all age groups
from Iceland to Japan. Iwata is
an international stude

and uses
Myspace to keep in touch with
her friends abroad.
''Being an international stu-
dent, it
'
s easy to kCep in touch
with a lot of my friends who are

ed in USA and Austra

said Iwata.
Facebook and Myspace are
becoming, if not already
,
an
inte-
weekly.
According to Pulse, on the
week of April 24 "1025 photos"
were uploaded at Marist April
27.

According to
Pul

gone up

4
points in the past
week. So as it turns out there is
good chance not many Marist
st

dents will read tlus.
Myspace has even been used
by a great number of bands and
mode
l
ing agencies as a fonn of
publicity. Matt Taylor, bassist of
Motion
City
Soundtrack,
be
l
ieves that band profiles
"make the band more accessible"
to the fans and give easy access
to tour schedules and general
information.
These systems have begun to
play such
a
big part in our lives
that older users have began using
them ,as a source for busi

Marist College senior Eddie

Googled his name
ana the first thing that was dis-

He immediately decided to

"I

The idea of using online social

Water Polo earns seven seed; awaits Stanford
By DAVID HOCHMAN
Staff Writer
All sport fans know about
Selection Sunday, but May
I
was
Selection Monday. The Marist
water polo team gathered with
coaches, administrators, and a
few curious onlookers to find out
its seed for the upcoming NCAA
tournament.
To say excitement filled the
atmosphere would be a huge
understatement.
The women
screamed and cheered as CSTV
displayed the name Marist as one
of the five automatic bids in next
weekend's tournament.
When the first contest, the one
seed vs, the eight seed game, was
announced
,
more cheers and
applause filled the Cabaret from
the team and their supporters
because it meant that the Red
Foxes would not
be
playing
the
top seed in the Country.
About a minute later, the chan-
nel
announced Marist earned the
seventh seed, and would
be
fac-
ing the second-seeded Stanford
Cardinals in the opening round
on May 12. Head Coach Andrew
Silva said this seed was a result
of respect for the program.
"We knew there was a possibil-
ity
[of
being number seven,}"
Silva said after the announce-
ment and a
team
meeting.
"It
speaks very
highly
of our team
that the championship committee
felt we were deserving of a high-
er seed."
Just minutes after the
announcement he told his team,
"This shows just how much they
respect you."
Even President Dennis Murray
attended
the
selection party. His
words for the team spoke of how
highly-regarded
Marist
is
becoming in the country and
what the school can expect in
future years.
"One of the greatest schools
here on the east coast will be
playing one of the great schools
from the west coast,
"
he said.
"And it looks like our best years
are ahead of us."
If the best years are still ahead
of the program, the future is
looking bright. However,. the
ladies know there is business to
attend to this season. They are
not sitting back and enjoyingjust
being
in the tournament. From
what freshman leading goal scor-
er, Katelin McCahill, said, they
will be focused on their game in
California.
"It's an
honor
to
play such a
great team with a great history,"
she said. "But coach isn't
letting
our minds wander. We have a
tough week of practice ahead of
us. And what we've done all year
works, so we're going to keep
doing what we've been doing."
MAAC Tournament MVP
Elizabeth Davis said this may be
a difficult task
due
to the timing
of the tournament. Finals will
take place before the team jets
off and the women on the team
will have plenty on their minds.
"We just have to keep in mind
what we're there for,
"
Davis
said. "It's going to be hard with
everything else going on, but this
is a once
in
a lifetime opportuni-
ty, and we have to take advantage
ofit.
"
Davis
,
CA and the campus of
UC-Davi
s,
await this squad from
the east. While almost every stu-
dent on campus will have already
left school for the summer
,
these
women will be playing their
hearts out and showing why they
garnered the respect they did.

By

Staff Writer
The Red Foxes won their first
ever Metro Atlantic Athletic
Conference
(MAAC)
Championship
by
beating con-
ference foe, Wagner, for the
first
time in the program's history.
The women on the squad provid-
ed another
splash
of excitement
in
its final match of their season.
Players found it difficu
l
t to
explain just what occurred in the
water that
day. Of
course they
were all happy; anyone could see
that on their faces.
At
least one
young lady knew she was show-
ing everyone just how happy she
was.
"I smile a lot," said Elizabeth

Marist

sophomore
goalie who was

nament's
MVP. "And I
couldn't
stop smiling since Sunday, so
that must be
good."

stopped
18
shots against Iona on
Saturday to lead her team to a

She then made eight saves in the

After finishing his high school
tennis career, Greg Marks did
not think he was going to
be
back on the court.
However,
after taking one year
off
from the
game, Marks is happy to be play-
ing again and
seeki
n
g a Metro
Atlantic Athletic Confe
r
ence
(MAAC) title.
Marks played high school ten-
nis for Newburgh Free Academy
in Newburgh,
NY,
where he was
the ace on the squad. During his
time there, he led his team
IO
the
OClAA
Section
IX
Championship and was named to
the All-State Team as a New
York State quarterfina
l
ist.
Marks said that it was his older
brother that got him into the
game.
"I started playing when
I
was
four years old," he said
.
"My big
brother played so I wanted to do
things he did.
I
was always pret-
ty
fast, so
I
liked to chase all the
balls down and my brother
inspired me to keep p
l
aying."
However, once his
high
school
days were done, and he came to
Marist College, Marks decided
to hang up his racket and tehnis
shoes.
"I debated for
m
onths duri
n
g
my senior year of high school
whether or not to play in col-
lege," he said. "I finally decided
not to, coming to the conclusion
that I was a little burnt out, need-
ed a break from the game, and
wanted to enjoy co
ll
ege for what
it has to offer."
Without tennis, Marks, who is
often called "the Hammer" by
his close friends, stayed active as
a member of the Accounting
Club and in intramural
sports.
In
addition, Marks obtained a per-
fect 4.0 his first semester of col-
legc, making him a

Despite his accomplishments
,
Marks was still missing some-
thing in his life.
"During my freshman year,
I
realiz.ed how much
I
really love
the game and missed it so
m
u
ch," Marks said.
"I just
missed the atmosphere of com-
petition."
After his freshman year was
over, Marks decided that he
wanted back on the court. He
contacted Tim Smith, the coach
of the Marist tennis team, and
told him he would like a shot to
p
l
ay on the team. Marks tried
out and earned his spot on the
roster.
Marks described the process of
getting back on a tennis team and
earning a spot.
"It
was
a
pretty
long process of
ups and downs," he said.
"Coach Smith based his decis
i
on
on the individual tournament
resu
l
ts of our
fall
season and
how we did against each other
dur
i
ng practices day in and day
out. It took a while to solidify
my spot."
Marks talked about his feelings
of being back on the tennis court.
"I had such as blast," he said.
"They arc a great group of guys
and there is a big difference from
high school in the level of tennis
being played.
It
was
a little
weird getti
n
g used to playing
towards the bottom of a lineup,
but after all, each match is worth
the same. In reality, it was so
much
fun
just to get out and
compete again."
Marks mentioned that at first,
things were not go
i
ng as well as
he would have liked.
"During the year, I wasn't play-
ing my best, and things were
looking questionab
l
e for making
the
li
neup, but I kept fighting and
the team."
Marks was definitely a contrib-
utor to the team during their
recent MAAC Championship
run.
The Marist tennis team
competed

l
y going to try my
best to repeat my performance of
this
year's
MAAC
Championship match in the next
two years," he said.
"As
for the
team, we just have to work as
hard as possib
l
e throughout the
year and peak at the right time.
The team just has to encourage
each other and help each other
out in any way possible. After
being so close this year,
I
want at
least
one
MAAC
Championship."
"I want to improve as much as
po~sible to play higher in the
line
u
p," he said. "This summer,
I want to work on getting my
serve b
i
gger and more consis-
tent, improve my backhand, and
increase my stre
n
gth.
Despite
my laid-back personality, I am
probably one of the most com-
petitive people you will meet. I
want to win so badly, which is
why I run down every sing
l
e
ball, even if it's out of my reach."
However, Marks has just one
idea in his mind for next year.
"Manhattan is _going down," he
said.
