Maybe it.'s coincidence. Maybe
it signals that spring is in the air.
Or maybe it's just a sign from God,
I don't know. Either way you look
at it, tl}ough, the world is becom-
ing a better place because two of
the best albums of the year were
released on back-to-back Tuesdays
in March.
Sting's
"Ten
Summoner's
Tales" is a bit of a change of pace
from 1991 's "The Soul Cages,"
which while great, was a bit of an
emotional downer. "TST" features
a Sting that has lightened up a lot,
and songs that are on par with The
Police's best work.
Pegged by some as Mr. Serious,
Sting proves he has a sense of
humor on songs like "Saint
already delicious cake. What mat-
Augustine In Hell" and "Epilogue
(Nothing 'Bout
Me),"
where he ex-
tends an invitation to critics to

than Sting.

Listen to the sing-song charm of
"Seven Days" and the sheer beau•
ty of "Fields Of Gold" and "Shape
Of My Heart," which are buoyed
by guitarist Dominic Miller's
tasteful playing.
So many music reviewers ·at-
tempt to delve into what Sting's
songs really mean. Fortunately, the
Buoniconti
songs on "TST" allow for personal
interpretation. Save the scalpel for
someone else and enjoy them for

The humor exhibited here,

though, is just the frosting on an
Lollapalooza tour, "Stain" finds
LC a lot heavier and ·a lot more
focused.
· New bassist Doug . Wimbish
(replacing the departed Muzz Skill-
ings) has added to this heaviness
with his amazing playing. The· 13
songs on "Stain" are very tight and
less preachy than earlier work,
though still with an eye on social
issues.
"Stain" was produced by Ron
Saint Germain, who has previous-
ly worked with Soundgarden and
Sonic Youth. His .•
input on the
album proves to be very valuable,
and he could easily become the next

One of the best tracks on the
album is the funk-inflected "Bi,"
which does a wickedly humorous
take on bisexuality:
"Everybody loves. you when
you're bi."
uGo
Away,"
"Auslander,"
"Postman,'' and "This I,,itUe
Pig"
are L<:::
at their haxd_core
best, with
the latter song ccmtaining some
tricky drumming by Will Calhoun.
"Leave It Alone," the first
single, and "Nothingness,"
a
haunting ballad, are my two
favorites on "Stain." The vocals
on "Nothingness'' were recorded
outside, where Corey Glover sang
into_
a satellite dish, which produc-
ed a strange doubling effect on his
voice when he moved his head dif-
ferent ways.
LC's secret weapon, however, is
guitarist Vernon l{eid. Reid plays
superbly, and is one of a select few
guitarists who . knows how to get
. the most out of their instrument.

The Academy of Motion Picture
Arts and Sciences is getting ready
for its 65th annual ceremony.This
big popularity contest will take
place on March 29th. and Oscars
will be awarded to the best perfor-
mances of the past year·. This year
will be different, however, because
we have been overrun with what
are called "art house" films which
were never released nationwide.
Since the nominations were an-
nounced, some of them are com-
ing out of hiding.
Let's start with the·best picture
.category. Picking up nine nomina-
tions is "Howard's End." T.his
film stars last years winner for best
actor Anthony Hopkins and Em-
ma Thompson ("Dead Again").
Did anyone see this? Okay, maybe
a few people did. I don't doubt the
quality of this film, but I don't
think it will walk away with the
Oscar even with a powerful lead
like Hopkins.
The next nominee that wasn't
seen by too many ·people is "The
Crying
Game."
Getting
six
nominations, "The Crying Game"
stars people I've never heard of.
I'll
agree with my fellow film critic
who said that it won't win best
picture.
The third nominee· in this
category is the very boring_-and
overrated western "Unforgiven."
The Academy gave director Clint
Eastwood's film nine nominations.
I don't think; and I know there are
some people who will disagree with

me
(I
won't. mention any· names),
"Unforgiven will win best picture.
I would like to think that. the
Academy will have the sense to give
the Oscar to a film that doesn't put
.it's aud_ience to sleep.
The two nominees that, in my
opinion, have the best chance of
winning the best picture Oscar are
"A Few Good Men" and "Scent
of a Woman." My pick is '' A Few
Good Men." Don't get me wrong,
I really liked "Scent of a Woman"
but it was very long, and some
parts could've been left out.
''A Few Good fyfen" had.strong
performances by• everyone involv-
ed. and a solid plot. .
•
• Four out of the five nomineesfor
best actor come from movies that
the majority of people have seen.
The choice is simple. Al Pacino
.won the Golden Globe in this·
category ·and I think he will win
here.
As for the other nominees:
Robert Downey
IL
("Chaplin")
did a ~ood job as the legendary
ent.ertamer but I don't think it was
an Oscar winnine performance.
Clint Eastwood ("Unforgiven")
~oesn'_t seem to put a lot of feeling
mto his role and in my-opinion,
can't comoete with someone like
.
.
Pacino.
Denzel Washington
("Malcolm
X")
is definitely Oscar
material and will probably be
Pacino's primary competition.
I have never heard of -Stephen
Rea ("The Crying Game") and I
didn't see the movie so regarding
his performance, your guess is as
good as mine.

like to question the . Academy
about ...
·First, • why 'wasn't Rob .. Reiner

Instead of worrying about how
.
much.sun to get in a.day,
.or
cat-
ching up with friends from home,
•
some Mafist College students spent
much of their spring breaks help-
ing Jess. fortunate people.
•
Marina Emery-Arras, 21, from
Branford; Conn.,· spent lier spring
break' in the Dominican Republic
with·
a:
group from her church.
Emery-Arras· ·said
•
they went
there for two reasons. One was to
supply funds and build a church
for the people, and the other reason
was "to experience. the
_
Hfe. that
tney have down there"..
.
.
. .

•
'She
was Just one of'·severaf
students. who spent spring break

.
•
Herday started with breakfast at
J:3(fa;m,;then she spent the after~
nqons working at the· site doing
things such as mixing the concrete
for the foundation of a new
•
church.
.

.

·
.
.The
cemerit was mixed-rilanual-
.
ly, and the workers had to use
.buckets
and shovels
•
to mix and
spread the cement.
.
•
"We. didn't have. the
·
conve-
niences.· that-people here
·have,"
Emrey-Arras said.
,
.
Even though
.
the work
.
was
demanding, she saidshe would love
to do it again some day ....
..
While Eqi.ery-Arras helped out
others with her church from home,
'other
Marislstudents went
Ori
a
trip
with the Campus.Mini~try_for;a,f~w
days during spring break.·
Rob Ryan, a freshman from
Roselle, N,J., was one of the seven
students ,vho went with the Cam-
pus Ministry to Lawrence,
,Mass.,
·
for four·days over·break;
"I felt like my spring break
would be more meaningful if I did
.
something
f
of<ithei people," Ryan
said.
•
•
•
He described his experience as
"one of those unexplainable things
.that gave· .you a good feeling in-
side," and he also said it was an ex-
perience that "opened your eyes a
lot'~.
Ryan said he ,vas informed that
Lawrence
has
"the
highest
unemployment rate on the eastern
seaboard".
There were many small tasks to
be done on their short trip such as
shoveling· snow, cooking at the
shelter .and watching children.
Jami Fregosi, a sophomore from
Lyndon Center, Vt., said she wat-
ched the children most of the time.
She said she found out about the
trip a few.weeks before break and
she dropped everything to go.
"I had wanted
to
go since I
•.•
heard aoout it-on my tour before
I came here," she said.
fregosi said it was a great ex-
perience and that she would
"definitely" do it again.
Dave Whitehead, a sophmore
from Ardsley, N. Y., went because
he is a member of Campus Ministry
and Brother Michael said he would
enjoy it.
"It
felt good to do something
nice, even if it ,vas my spring break
-
where I should have been in
Aruba or Cancun," Whitehead
said.
"I
learned a lot about myself,
and
I think everyone got to learn

.President
Licari loses
appeal against Rinehart
by
JOHN

The

its decision that there is insufficient
evidence to prove allegations of
wrongful campaigning by Student

President Nella.
Licari had made her latest and
final
·appeal
to
the Judicial Board and
Chief Justice Michele Bafuma
found that the charges could not be
sustained.
Licari charged Rinehart and his
supporters with ripping down cam-
paign posters and repladng them
with their own. There was also a
claim of solicitation of votes within
50-feet of a place of polling.
Rinehart anci his supporters were
also blamed for hanging pro-
Rinehart banners at a Marist
Hockey Game. Rinehart, a co-
captain of the hockey team, has
stated that Licari had equal oppor-
tunity to campaign at the game.
The Senate reached the same
conclusion of this matter, saying in
a report that the sporting event was
open to all and gave equal oppor-
tunity for anyone to campaign.

understands that the outcome of

"It's very difficull to get ac1ual

tactics," Licari said.
After April 19 Kent Rinehart will
be in office acting as Studenl Body
President and Licari said she will
apply for an appoin1ed position on

lbe upas planned
by
JUSTIN SEREMET
Staff Writer
Despite the extreme winter
weather of the past Jew weeks,
Marist's plans for construction of
new townhouses remain intact, ac-
cording.to Mark Sullivan, executive
vice president.
The large amount of snow and
rain of the winter has caused a
month delay in the construction,
said Sullivan,
but the new
townhouses will be up by the begin-
ning of next semester as planned.
"There will be no problem get-
ting it done," he said. "Despite the
weather, it will be ready by
September."
Although the construction seems
small at the moment, the ap-
pearance should be quite different
by September.
"The bulk of the work will be
during the summer," Sullivan said.
"That's when most of the loud ac-
tivity will take place."
The new townhouses, which will
be located behind the Benoit and
Gregory houses and to the right of
Gregory, will include 18 suites for
eight
students in each. Gregory
and
Benoit will stay.
"We've made modifications in
the plans so that they will remain
where they are," he said.
About a week after students have
left for summer break, Pizza Galli
contractors of Vermont will begin
phase two of the construction. This
includes destroying the Cham-
pagnat parking lot and the building
of the new resident hall and student
center.
"The old Champagnat parking
lot will appear rugged for a while,"
Sullivan said. "The new parking lot
will be where the tennis courts us-
ed to be."
The construction will continue
through the 1993-94 school year
and should be completed by the
time students return for the fall
semester 1994.
"The current parking lot will be
transformed into a visually attrac-
tive park," he said. "By September
1994, the new resident halls will be
up as well."
Also be.ginning this summer is
the widening of Route 9, which will
include tearing down the homes
across from Marist.
"It's a two-year project that will
see a number of improvements
such as lighting, walkways, and
some really nice landscaping. It will
also dramatically change campus
entrances."
It seemed definite that Skinners
would be torn down completely,
but Sullivan said that it may still be
up in September, at least partially.
"The state 1s definitely tearing
down the part of Skinners that
blocks its plans, but Skinners may
decide
to
keep
the back portion
open... It may be open, it may
not."

Staff _Writer
The arrival of the 1993 East-
West Center Asia-Pacific Film
Tour not only brought five award-
winning
foreign
films
to
Poughk~epsie, but the opportuni-
ty for Marist and Vassar Colleges
to work together.
All the films were brought from
the Hawaii International Film
Festival and films from China,
Japan, Korea, New Zealand, and
the Philippines were represented.
The March 22-26 stop in
Poughkeepsie was the tours only
stop in New York State.
Through an organizational and
financial collaboration, Marist and
Vassar co-sponsored the event -
an opportunity which the two col-
leges often do not have.

opportunity to collaborate
with Marist and to get to know the

the number of suspects.
•
Richard was in Washington late
last night to disclose her findings
to
federal sheriff officials when she
was gunned down.
Alsace Lorraine, a 23-year-old
international studies major from
the Falkland Islands, is being held
without bail at the Newridge Coun-
ty jail in Sommerset, Va., for his
alleged connection in the explosion
that rocked lower Manhattan more
than one month ago, and the native
Vermonter's murder.
A United States citizen under
political asylum, Lorraine was ar-
rested in his East Patman, N.J.,
home late last night after reports
•
linking him to the blast and
shooting were confirmed by fami-
ly members.
The four other individuals ch_arg-
ed with allegedly placing ari ex-
plosive device in one of the Trade
Center's building's sub-basement
neither confirmed nor denied Lor-
raine's participation.
.
As stated in the Federal Report
For Unearthing Criminal Ter-
rorism (FRUCT) and eyewitness
accounts, the four initial suspects
purchased a potato knish from
Lorraine outside the Trade Center
complex at approximately 12:10
p.m. on Feb.26 - eight minutes
before the deadly blast rocked the
twin skyscrapers.
The contents of the knish are still
under investigation, although some
high-ranking officials and federal
forensics specialists believe that an
advanced detonating device may
have been hidden between layers of
mashed potato and mustard.
Lorraine was unavailable for
comment.
However, Lorraine's attorney,
April Fooles, of Grand Falls, N.Y.,
argues that it was in fact "a hot dog
with the works" which has placed
his client under the "blistering
scrutiny of the Western media."

the tables on Mars, knocking him

"I was shocked when he went

tunning him with a right/left com-

"I'm trying to get him to snap
his punches, to put something
behind it," said Cimino. "He's

Cimino. "He couldn't get anyone

.
During ihe previous weeks, some
students at Marist have claimed
that a high rate of HIV infection
has caused donated units of blood
to be rejected by the Red· Cross.
This is completely untrue. Ac-
cording to Dr. David Ciavarella,
director of Hudson Valley Blood
Services in Valhalla, the incidence
of blood units being positive for
HIV in this area is less than 0.015
percent, or fewer than 12 ·donors
out of 80,000 each year.
Rumors supplied to those spread
at Marist were circulated at
Kingston high schools last year and
at Scarsdale high schools earlier
this year. In both cases, the rumors
were founded on fear of the infec-
tion, not any basis of fact.
At the last blood drive at Marist,
119 people donated blood. Twen-
ty people were rejected prior to
donating. These people could have
been taking something as simple as
an antihistamine.
They could have traveled to an
area of high-disease risk, or they
could have been slightly anemic
themselves. They were not rejected
because of suspected high risks of
HIV at Marist College.
Another blood drive is schedul-
ed for April 14. Donations are
needed from 135 to 150 people.
There is no risk of contracting an
infection from donating.,
Please consider your choice of
donating based on facts and not on
fear.

We are college students, are we

Outraged
Editor:
I am appalled by the treatment
of squirrels on this campus. I, as
well as my fellow quadrapeds, are
tired of being kicked around as se-
cond class citizens. We deserve
some. respect.
This blatant disregard for our
well-being is demonstrated by the
photo and story that ran in the Feb.
11 issue that displayed the charred
remains of one of my brethren.
He was not "crispy," as sug-
gested· by Mr. Martin, his name
was Ed, and he. deserves some
dignity.
He was simply chasing a nut that
fell down the pipe until he got
stuck. His death was a tragedy that
shocked the entire community.
How dare The Circle make light of
that fatal incid~nt.
Christopher V. DeRobertis
Clinton • and abortion
Editor:
This nation -has elected a pro-
abortion president. Two days after
William's Clinton's inauguration,
he signed _ an executive order
facilitating information about and
access to abortions.
Mr. Clinton was educated at a
Catholic primary school and
Georgetown University, also an
alleged Catholic institution.
Clinton thanked the church for
supporting his candidacy. Some of
us who are Catholic gaped at his
feig~ed gratitude.
The "American"
Catholic
church leader provided no specific
moral direction ·about the matter of
voting for pro-abortion candidates.
The political prelates did not
make this declaration of moral
theology. This sin of omission will
surely contribute to God's imma-
nent wrath.
Let us pray and do penance this
Lent as we wait the Lord's
chastisement.

Being a waiter. may not sound
like a glamorous job
to
most, but
for Scott DeFalco it was the chance
of a lifetime, and he flew across the
country to do it.
•
DeFalco didn't serve food to or-
dinary people in an ordinary
eatery, rather he played the part of
a waiter in the major motion pic-
ture,
"Silver,"
which stars Sharon
·scott
Defalco seoiac
Stone and is due out this summer.
Defalco, a 22-year-old senior
from Vernon, N.J., has also ap-
peared on such soaps as "The
Young and The Restless," "Santa
Barbara," and "The Bold and The
Beautiful."
DeFalco said he will be heading
out to Los Angeles in.June to pur-
sue a full-time acting career.

On

to

they ended up talking the. entire.

After expressing a serious in-
•
terest in acting, the producer of-
fered DeFalco a T.V. production
internship during the summer bet-
ween his soohomore and junior
year, and Defalco said he took the
internship without any hesitation.
"I was delivering scripts, going
to the editing booth, and watching
them film scenes, when one day so-
meone took me aside and had me
read a scene. Well, they loved it,
and it lead to

DeFalco.

DeFalco

described himself as
"confident," but not cocky, and
said he was sure he would be able
to accomplish what he wanted with
his acting career.
•
Defalco added th.at he hoped to
land a permanent role on a soap
opera and thought he'd definitely
get one before he turns 25.
But leaving the area and moving
to California won't be an easy ad-
justment for DeFalco.
"I'm going to miss Marist and
my friends and family, who are the
most important things in my life.
Fortunately, I've got 100 percent
support from both," said Defalco.
DeFalco said Al Pacino and
Robert DeNiro were his favorite
actors, admitted to being a huge
fan of horror movies and said his
all time favorite films are "The Ex-
orcist,"
"The
Godfather," and
"Fletch."

DeFalco.

The proposed budget cuts deep-

Two groups,

adviser to the U.S. delegation at the

Dr. Ovin
Lehman
He also pursued a successful
business career, beginning in the
economics department at Lehman
Brothers in 1947, but put business
aside in 1975 to become New
York's Parks Commissioner.
Lehman is extremely active in the
fight for fair employment for the
handicapped.
Besides
being
chairperson of the Governor's
Committee, he is also a member of
the President's Committee on the
Emolovment of the Handicapped.
"This year marks the 20th an-
niversary of special services at
Marist," Kopec said. "Havini
Lehman. at Commencement is a
good way to acknowledge the con-
tribution the college has made in
educational . opportunities
for
students in the program."
Lehman, who will receive an
honorary Doctor of Humane Let-
ters degree, served as a trustee of
Marist College from 1964 to 1972
and was given the Marist College
Presidents Award for his service.

impressive number of letters for a
week.
The SGA sent out approximatly
100 letters for a week while the
Financial Aid office posted
\32
let-
ters in the first ·day.
Christine McCormick, director
of the Financial'Aid office had a
quick remedy to the time consum-
ing task of writing
a
letter and put-
ting it in the mail.
For three days a computer was
set up in Donnelly Hall in front of
the Security office and it contain-
ed eight different form letters ad-
dressed to Governor Cuomo.·
All
the students had to do was
type in their name and address. .
"Students don't have alot of
time," McCormick said, "it makes
it easier for them with their busy .
schedules.''
The Finacial Aid Office got 100
letters a day, .for three days, mak-
ing for a heavy mail bag.
At the same time the SGA was
sponsoring a phone campaign
which got approximatly 200 callers.
The SGA set up phones and
handed out calling lists of state
legislators.
"Because of all of these cuts,
people are pushed away from
private schools to more crowded
public schools," Licari said.
Governor Cuomo's budget cuts
have yet to passed.
But, if the budget does get ap-
proved Apri\
1,
next fal\'s incom-
ming freshrrieh'.ai-e the ones who
will feel the brunt of the cuts.
"Private colleges just don't have
the resources to deal with the
Governor's budget," McCormick
said, "it's going to be harder for
families to decide where to send
their children."
An example of this was printed
in a memorandum from Dennis
Murray to the Marist community.
A
freshman next year with a gross
family income of $40,000 would be
eligible for $465 in TAP awards.
That cut equals $845 less than
this years award. Compared
to
a
student comming to Marist with a
gross family income of $20,000 is
eligible to get $3,375 in TAP
awards, $200 less than this year's
award.
With Bundy Aid, independent
schools get money for every student
it graduates.
In the Governor's budget, Marist
would just get $361,168, $30,097
less _than this year.

Competing at the NoviceJunior

Towson, MD, March 11-14, the

But the different scenery did not
provide the idealconditions.
Competing in a hotel room. was
crowded, Bibb said, because of the
limited amount of

"That's.one

Jason LaScolea, a junior from
Bath, N.Y., said some students will·
probably take time

regardless of a switch.
"I don't mind Spring Break be-
ing in April; but it's a long haul,"
LaScolea said. "Students are going

.
VanderHeyden said his concern
was ,vith education and the number
of days students spent in class.
"Ultimately,. it's up to me,"
vanderHeyden said. ''I have to be
concerned that we have enough
days and contact hours or we have
a problem in Albany."
Of course, not all students have
complaints about the change in
schedule, like Ryan Smirh. Smith,
a junior from Ansonia, Conn., said
he has no problem with the possi-
ble switch.

Spring? It must be. The snow is melting ~nd the runners are running.
The men's outdoor track team began its season at the U.S. Military
Academy Open in West Point, NY.
According to Head Coach Pete Colaizzo, the whole team ran a great
first meet:
•
•
•
Junior Brian Ordway ran in the 3,000-meter steeP.lechase for the first
time in his life.
•
Despite Ordway's inexperience in the event, he placed fourth with a
time of 10:03.3. The time ,vould have been good for fourth in last year's
Northeast Conference Championships.
•
•
•
• .
For the past two years, Colaizzo has been looking for an event designed
for Ordway's talents and said he believes the steeplechase is the answer.
Due to.the blizzard during spring break, sophomore Darren Ranft has
riot been able to practice at all for his event~the triple jump.
The setback did not stop Ranft, who finished in sixth place; leaping
41-feet, two-inches'-his personal best.
•
According to Colaizzo, Ranft. had one good jump out of six.
Juniors Marty Feeney and Andy Baird, and freshmen Josh Wood and
Reid Rose all set personal best times in the 5,000-meter run.
• Colaizzo said all his runners ran together passing each other all the time.
"They reeded of each other," Colaizzo said ..
The women's team also ran their first meet of the spring season at
West Point.
According to Head Coach Phil Kelly, the womeri trained very hard
Thursday and were worn out for Saturday's meet.
Colleen Carson ran 5:11.00 in the 1500-meter run. The freshman is
expected to get under five minutes by the end of the season.
Fellow freshman Theresa Hickey ran her best race of the year in the
1500.
Senior Kristy Ryan had two personal best races at West Point.
Kelly said Ryan ran a solid race despite the lack of practice. Current-
ly, the senior h'as an intern.ship in New York City which prevents her

Cagei-s fall tOMount in NEC final, 82-61
by
J.W. STEWART

Staff Writer
The women's basketball team,
after crushing arch-rival Fairleigh
Dickinson 81-67 in the Northeast
Conference semifinals on March
12, lost to Mount St. Mary's in.the
NEC Championship Game two
·days
later by an 82-61 margin.
The
championship
game·,
originally scheduled for that Satur-
day, was cancelled because of the
blizzard. The team (19-10) said the
one-day layoff adversely affected
them.
"l
•
think everyone was tired
because
of
the snow day," said
Charlene Fields. "I think hanging·
around the hotel for one day and
wanting. to get home had an ef-
fect."
Not affected by the snow day,
apparently,
·was
·the
Mount.
The Mountaineers, participants
in three of the last four NEC
Finals, shot a sizzling 48% and
played a tremendous defensive
game against the Foxes en route to
winning the coriference tournament
for the first time.
•
"They did throw
a:
full-court
press on us but we should've got-
ten through it," said Lori Keys.
"In
the FDU
game, we were hit-
ting shots - boom,
• boom, boom. ''
-
Cindy Carroll,
"We just killed ourselves."
• "They put us in a hole early and
.
,ve
certainly didn't help ourselves
•
withail the turnovers," said Fields,
the NEC's Player of the Year.
Despite turning the ball over 16
times in the first half, Marist only
trailed 37-26 at the break. The Red
Foxes lost the game at the start of
the second half when the Moun-
taineers busted out on a 17-0 run
over the opening five minutes.
'.'In the FDU game, we were hit-
tinf;shots_:_boom, boom; boom,"
said.Cindy Carroll.
«But
against
Mount St. Mary's, that's what they
did to us."
.
Carroll scored a team-high 16
points, Fields had 15 and Keys add-
ed 11 and. 10 boards. Fields and
Keys were named to the All-
Tournament ,Team.
.
"We ran into a team that was so
damn hot that we couldn't get any
stops,". said Head Coach Ken
Babineau, who won his first
playoff· game in his seven-year
career. "I don't think anyone could
•
have beaten them on that day."
The Mount's defense also dogg-
ed Fields,
.
Carroll and Melissa
Hauser all game long, making the
trio work extra-hard just
to
get
.
open
..
"A lot of the shots
I
took,
I
had
to come off screens," said Carroll.
"lt
might've caused some of us to
be frustrated."
The Foxes
s:ormed
their way in-
to
the finals with a resounding
•
14-point victory over FDU, com-
pleting a three-game season sweep
of the Knights.
Keys led the charge with 19
points, Carroll hit for 18 and Fields
netted 13.
"It
was
a
great feeling beating
them by that much," said Keys.
-'~That
proves it (beating FDU twice
·i!l•:·the
regular season) wasn't a
'f)u)<e:"
Neither was the season.
•• '.•jWe
were overachievers," said
Babineau. "We showed a lot of
basketball maturity at a very young
age."
Ttie Tennessee factor
The Marist hockey team was
supposed to be.heading to Knox-
ville, Tenn. next week to par-
ticipate in
·a
national tournam_ent,
however their
'trip
\vas
cancelled
due to a lack of teams.
·There
was a mixed reaction on
•
whether or not the cancellation af-
fected the team's play against
Siena .
Mannebach said the loss might
•
have made the
team
play soft.
Corriveau. believed Tennessee
was in the back of their minds but
was not a factor in the playoff
game.
•
Parling shots
The Marist hockey team had a
lot of poteniial to
repeat.
The team
was skating in the right
path
with
the IO-game unbeaten streak,
however when the club began
to
lose its focus, things began to fall
apart.
It is tough to tell whether or not
this team will have the same poten-
tial
after
losing
six
players to
graduation.
Whatever the case, next year's
team must improve its mentality or
next
season
could be another big
disappointment.

Maybe it.'s coincidence. Maybe
it signals that spring is in the air.
Or maybe it's just a sign from God,
I don't know. Either way you look
at it, tl}ough, the world is becom-
ing a better place because two of
the best albums of the year were
released on back-to-back Tuesdays
in March.
Sting's
"Ten
Summoner's
Tales" is a bit of a change of pace
from 1991 's "The Soul Cages,"
which while great, was a bit of an
emotional downer. "TST" features
a Sting that has lightened up a lot,
and songs that are on par with The
Police's best work.
Pegged by some as Mr. Serious,
Sting proves he has a sense of
humor on songs like "Saint
already delicious cake. What mat-
Augustine In Hell" and "Epilogue
(Nothing 'Bout
Me),"
where he ex-
tends an invitation to critics to

Listen to the sing-song charm of
"Seven Days" and the sheer beau•
ty of "Fields Of Gold" and "Shape
Of My Heart," which are buoyed
by guitarist Dominic Miller's
tasteful playing.
So many music reviewers ·at-
tempt to delve into what Sting's
songs really mean. Fortunately, the
Buoniconti
songs on "TST" allow for personal
interpretation. Save the scalpel for
someone else and enjoy them for

The humor exhibited here,

though, is just the frosting on an
Lollapalooza tour, "Stain" finds
LC a lot heavier and ·a lot more
focused.
· New bassist Doug . Wimbish
(replacing the departed Muzz Skill-
ings) has added to this heaviness
with his amazing playing. The· 13
songs on "Stain" are very tight and
less preachy than earlier work,
though still with an eye on social
issues.
"Stain" was produced by Ron
Saint Germain, who has previous-
ly worked with Soundgarden and
Sonic Youth. His .•
input on the
album proves to be very valuable,
and he could easily become the next

One of the best tracks on the
album is the funk-inflected "Bi,"
which does a wickedly humorous
take on bisexuality:
"Everybody loves. you when
you're bi."
uGo
Away,"
"Auslander,"
"Postman,'' and "This I,,itUe
Pig"
are L<:::
at their haxd_core
best, with
the latter song ccmtaining some
tricky drumming by Will Calhoun.
"Leave It Alone," the first
single, and "Nothingness,"
a
haunting ballad, are my two
favorites on "Stain." The vocals
on "Nothingness'' were recorded
outside, where Corey Glover sang
into_
a satellite dish, which produc-
ed a strange doubling effect on his
voice when he moved his head dif-
ferent ways.
LC's secret weapon, however, is
guitarist Vernon l{eid. Reid plays
superbly, and is one of a select few
guitarists who . knows how to get
. the most out of their instrument.

The Academy of Motion Picture
Arts and Sciences is getting ready
for its 65th annual ceremony.This
big popularity contest will take
place on March 29th. and Oscars
will be awarded to the best perfor-
mances of the past year·. This year
will be different, however, because
we have been overrun with what
are called "art house" films which
were never released nationwide.
Since the nominations were an-
nounced, some of them are com-
ing out of hiding.
Let's start with the·best picture
.category. Picking up nine nomina-
tions is "Howard's End." T.his
film stars last years winner for best
actor Anthony Hopkins and Em-
ma Thompson ("Dead Again").
Did anyone see this? Okay, maybe
a few people did. I don't doubt the
quality of this film, but I don't
think it will walk away with the
Oscar even with a powerful lead
like Hopkins.
The next nominee that wasn't
seen by too many ·people is "The
Crying
Game."
Getting
six
nominations, "The Crying Game"
stars people I've never heard of.
I'll
agree with my fellow film critic
who said that it won't win best
picture.
The third nominee· in this
category is the very boring_-and
overrated western "Unforgiven."
The Academy gave director Clint
Eastwood's film nine nominations.
I don't think; and I know there are
some people who will disagree with

me
(I
won't. mention any· names),
"Unforgiven will win best picture.
I would like to think that. the
Academy will have the sense to give
the Oscar to a film that doesn't put
.it's aud_ience to sleep.
The two nominees that, in my
opinion, have the best chance of
winning the best picture Oscar are
"A Few Good Men" and "Scent
of a Woman." My pick is '' A Few
Good Men." Don't get me wrong,
I really liked "Scent of a Woman"
but it was very long, and some
parts could've been left out.
''A Few Good fyfen" had.strong
performances by• everyone involv-
ed. and a solid plot. .
•
• Four out of the five nomineesfor
best actor come from movies that
the majority of people have seen.
The choice is simple. Al Pacino
.won the Golden Globe in this·
category ·and I think he will win
here.
As for the other nominees:
Robert Downey
IL
("Chaplin")
did a ~ood job as the legendary
ent.ertamer but I don't think it was
an Oscar winnine performance.
Clint Eastwood ("Unforgiven")
~oesn'_t seem to put a lot of feeling
mto his role and in my-opinion,
can't comoete with someone like
.
.
Pacino.
Denzel Washington
("Malcolm
X")
is definitely Oscar
material and will probably be
Pacino's primary competition.
I have never heard of -Stephen
Rea ("The Crying Game") and I
didn't see the movie so regarding
his performance, your guess is as
good as mine.

about ...
·First, • why 'wasn't Rob .. Reiner

While Eqi.ery-Arras helped out
others with her church from home,
'other
Marislstudents went
Ori
a
trip
with the Campus.Mini~try_for;a,f~w
days during spring break.·
Rob Ryan, a freshman from
Roselle, N,J., was one of the seven
students ,vho went with the Cam-
pus Ministry to Lawrence,
,Mass.,
·
for four·days over·break;
"I felt like my spring break
would be more meaningful if I did
.
something
f
of<ithei people," Ryan
said.

•
He described his experience as
"one of those unexplainable things
.that gave· .you a good feeling in-
side," and he also said it was an ex-
perience that "opened your eyes a
lot'~.
Ryan said he ,vas informed that
Lawrence
has
"the
highest
unemployment rate on the eastern
seaboard".
There were many small tasks to
be done on their short trip such as
shoveling· snow, cooking at the
shelter .and watching children.
Jami Fregosi, a sophomore from
Lyndon Center, Vt., said she wat-
ched the children most of the time.
She said she found out about the
trip a few.weeks before break and
she dropped everything to go.
"I had wanted
to
go since I
•.•
heard aoout it-on my tour before
I came here," she said.
fregosi said it was a great ex-
perience and that she would
"definitely" do it again.
Dave Whitehead, a sophmore
from Ardsley, N. Y., went because
he is a member of Campus Ministry
and Brother Michael said he would
enjoy it.
"It

.President
Licari loses
appeal against Rinehart
by
JOHN
LLOYD

The

Senate and Executive

followed correct procedures with
its decision that there is insufficient
evidence to prove allegations of
wrongful campaigning by Student

President Nella.
Licari had made her latest and
final
·appeal
to
the Judicial Board and
Chief Justice Michele Bafuma
found that the charges could not be
sustained.
Licari charged Rinehart and his
supporters with ripping down cam-
paign posters and repladng them
with their own. There was also a
claim of solicitation of votes within
50-feet of a place of polling.
Rinehart anci his supporters were
also blamed for hanging pro-
Rinehart banners at a Marist
Hockey Game. Rinehart, a co-
captain of the hockey team, has
stated that Licari had equal oppor-
tunity to campaign at the game.
The Senate reached the same
conclusion of this matter, saying in
a report that the sporting event was
open to all and gave equal oppor-
tunity for anyone to campaign.

understands that the outcome of

"It's very difficull to get ac1ual

After April 19 Kent Rinehart will
be in office acting as Studenl Body
President and Licari said she will
apply for an appoin1ed position on
the Executive Board.
lbe upas planned
by
JUSTIN SEREMET
Staff Writer
Despite the extreme winter
weather of the past Jew weeks,
Marist's plans for construction of
new townhouses remain intact, ac-
cording.to Mark Sullivan, executive
vice president.
The large amount of snow and
rain of the winter has caused a
month delay in the construction,
said Sullivan,
but the new
townhouses will be up by the begin-
ning of next semester as planned.
"There will be no problem get-
ting it done," he said. "Despite the
weather, it will be ready by
September."
Although the construction seems
small at the moment, the ap-
pearance should be quite different
by September.
"The bulk of the work will be
during the summer," Sullivan said.
"That's when most of the loud ac-
tivity will take place."
The new townhouses, which will
be located behind the Benoit and
Gregory houses and to the right of
Gregory, will include 18 suites for
eight
students in each. Gregory
and
Benoit will stay.
"We've made modifications in
the plans so that they will remain
where they are," he said.
About a week after students have
left for summer break, Pizza Galli
contractors of Vermont will begin
phase two of the construction. This
includes destroying the Cham-
pagnat parking lot and the building
of the new resident hall and student
center.
"The old Champagnat parking
lot will appear rugged for a while,"
Sullivan said. "The new parking lot
will be where the tennis courts us-
ed to be."
The construction will continue
through the 1993-94 school year
and should be completed by the
time students return for the fall
semester 1994.
"The current parking lot will be
transformed into a visually attrac-
tive park," he said. "By September
1994, the new resident halls will be
up as well."
Also be.ginning this summer is
the widening of Route 9, which will
include tearing down the homes
across from Marist.
"It's a two-year project that will
see a number of improvements
such as lighting, walkways, and
some really nice landscaping. It will
also dramatically change campus
entrances."
It seemed definite that Skinners
would be torn down completely,
but Sullivan said that it may still be
up in September, at least partially.
"The state 1s definitely tearing
down the part of Skinners that
blocks its plans, but Skinners may
decide
to
keep
the back portion
open... It may be open, it may
not."

Staff _Writer
The arrival of the 1993 East-
West Center Asia-Pacific Film
Tour not only brought five award-
winning
foreign
films
to
Poughk~epsie, but the opportuni-
ty for Marist and Vassar Colleges
to work together.
All the films were brought from
the Hawaii International Film
Festival and films from China,
Japan, Korea, New Zealand, and
the Philippines were represented.
The March 22-26 stop in
Poughkeepsie was the tours only
stop in New York State.
Through an organizational and
financial collaboration, Marist and
Vassar co-sponsored the event -
an opportunity which the two col-
leges often do not have.

direct involvement, bringing to five
the number of suspects.
•
Richard was in Washington late
last night to disclose her findings
to
federal sheriff officials when she
was gunned down.
Alsace Lorraine, a 23-year-old
international studies major from
the Falkland Islands, is being held
without bail at the Newridge Coun-
ty jail in Sommerset, Va., for his
alleged connection in the explosion
that rocked lower Manhattan more
than one month ago, and the native
Vermonter's murder.
A United States citizen under
political asylum, Lorraine was ar-
rested in his East Patman, N.J.,
home late last night after reports
•
linking him to the blast and
shooting were confirmed by fami-
ly members.
The four other individuals ch_arg-
ed with allegedly placing ari ex-
plosive device in one of the Trade
Center's building's sub-basement
neither confirmed nor denied Lor-
raine's participation.
.
As stated in the Federal Report
For Unearthing Criminal Ter-
rorism (FRUCT) and eyewitness
accounts, the four initial suspects
purchased a potato knish from
Lorraine outside the Trade Center
complex at approximately 12:10
p.m. on Feb.26 - eight minutes
before the deadly blast rocked the
twin skyscrapers.
The contents of the knish are still
under investigation, although some
high-ranking officials and federal
forensics specialists believe that an
advanced detonating device may
have been hidden between layers of
mashed potato and mustard.
Lorraine was unavailable for
comment.
However, Lorraine's attorney,
April Fooles, of Grand Falls, N.Y.,
argues that it was in fact "a hot dog
with the works" which has placed
his client under the "blistering
scrutiny of the Western media."

the tables on Mars, knocking him

"I was shocked when he went

Much like his mentor, Floyd

tunning him with a right/left com-
bination, and finally flattening him

"I'm trying to get him to snap
his punches, to put something
behind it," said Cimino. "He's

During ihe previous weeks, some
students at Marist have claimed
that a high rate of HIV infection
has caused donated units of blood
to be rejected by the Red· Cross.
This is completely untrue. Ac-
cording to Dr. David Ciavarella,
director of Hudson Valley Blood
Services in Valhalla, the incidence
of blood units being positive for
HIV in this area is less than 0.015
percent, or fewer than 12 ·donors
out of 80,000 each year.
Rumors supplied to those spread
at Marist were circulated at
Kingston high schools last year and
at Scarsdale high schools earlier
this year. In both cases, the rumors
were founded on fear of the infec-
tion, not any basis of fact.
At the last blood drive at Marist,
119 people donated blood. Twen-
ty people were rejected prior to
donating. These people could have
been taking something as simple as
an antihistamine.
They could have traveled to an
area of high-disease risk, or they
could have been slightly anemic
themselves. They were not rejected
because of suspected high risks of
HIV at Marist College.

Robert Baldwin, Senior
Outraged
Editor:
I am appalled by the treatment
of squirrels on this campus. I, as
well as my fellow quadrapeds, are
tired of being kicked around as se-
cond class citizens. We deserve
some. respect.
This blatant disregard for our
well-being is demonstrated by the
photo and story that ran in the Feb.
11 issue that displayed the charred
remains of one of my brethren.
He was not "crispy," as sug-
gested· by Mr. Martin, his name
was Ed, and he. deserves some
dignity.
He was simply chasing a nut that
fell down the pipe until he got
stuck. His death was a tragedy that
shocked the entire community.
How dare The Circle make light of
that fatal incid~nt.
Christopher V. DeRobertis
Clinton • and abortion
Editor:
This nation -has elected a pro-
abortion president. Two days after
William's Clinton's inauguration,
he signed _ an executive order
facilitating information about and
access to abortions.
Mr. Clinton was educated at a
Catholic primary school and
Georgetown University, also an
alleged Catholic institution.
Clinton thanked the church for
supporting his candidacy. Some of
us who are Catholic gaped at his
feig~ed gratitude.
The "American"
Catholic
church leader provided no specific
moral direction ·about the matter of
voting for pro-abortion candidates.
The political prelates did not
make this declaration of moral
theology. This sin of omission will
surely contribute to God's imma-
nent wrath.
Let us pray and do penance this
Lent as we wait the Lord's
chastisement.

Being a waiter. may not sound
like a glamorous job
to
most, but
for Scott DeFalco it was the chance
of a lifetime, and he flew across the
country to do it.
•
DeFalco didn't serve food to or-
dinary people in an ordinary
eatery, rather he played the part of
a waiter in the major motion pic-
ture,
"Silver,"
which stars Sharon
·scott
Defalco seoiac
Stone and is due out this summer.
Defalco, a 22-year-old senior
from Vernon, N.J., has also ap-
peared on such soaps as "The
Young and The Restless," "Santa
Barbara," and "The Bold and The
Beautiful."
DeFalco said he will be heading
out to Los Angeles in.June to pur-
sue a full-time acting career.

On

to

After expressing a serious in-
•
terest in acting, the producer of-
fered DeFalco a T.V. production
internship during the summer bet-
ween his soohomore and junior
year, and Defalco said he took the
internship without any hesitation.
"I was delivering scripts, going
to the editing booth, and watching
them film scenes, when one day so-
meone took me aside and had me
read a scene. Well, they loved it,
and it lead to

DeFalco

described himself as
"confident," but not cocky, and
said he was sure he would be able
to accomplish what he wanted with
his acting career.
•
Defalco added th.at he hoped to
land a permanent role on a soap
opera and thought he'd definitely
get one before he turns 25.
But leaving the area and moving
to California won't be an easy ad-
justment for DeFalco.
"I'm going to miss Marist and
my friends and family, who are the
most important things in my life.
Fortunately, I've got 100 percent
support from both," said Defalco.
DeFalco said Al Pacino and
Robert DeNiro were his favorite
actors, admitted to being a huge
fan of horror movies and said his
all time favorite films are "The Ex-
orcist,"
"The
Godfather," and
"Fletch."

DeFalco.
"Acting is something I've always

The proposed budget cuts deep-

Two groups,
the Student

and the Financial Aid Office, wrote

• The SGA letter campaign started
before spring break and lasted just
a week.
.
The phone campaign and the

after spirng break but they didn't
work in conjunction. -
The philosophy behind such let-

is to impress

One envelope

ed eight different form letters ad-
dressed to Governor Cuomo.·
All
the students had to do was
type in their name and address. .
"Students don't have alot of
time," McCormick said, "it makes
it easier for them with their busy .
schedules.''
The Finacial Aid Office got 100
letters a day, .for three days, mak-
ing for a heavy mail bag.
At the same time the SGA was
sponsoring a phone campaign
which got approximatly 200 callers.
The SGA set up phones and
handed out calling lists of state
legislators.
"Because of all of these cuts,
people are pushed away from
private schools to more crowded
public schools," Licari said.
Governor Cuomo's budget cuts
have yet to passed.
But, if the budget does get ap-
proved Apri\
1,
next fal\'s incom-
ming freshrrieh'.ai-e the ones who
will feel the brunt of the cuts.
"Private colleges just don't have
the resources to deal with the
Governor's budget," McCormick
said, "it's going to be harder for
families to decide where to send
their children."
An example of this was printed
in a memorandum from Dennis
Murray to the Marist community.
A
freshman next year with a gross
family income of $40,000 would be
eligible for $465 in TAP awards.
That cut equals $845 less than
this years award. Compared
to
a
student comming to Marist with a
gross family income of $20,000 is
eligible to get $3,375 in TAP
awards, $200 less than this year's
award.
With Bundy Aid, independent
schools get money for every student
it graduates.
In the Governor's budget, Marist
would just get $361,168, $30,097
less _than this year.

College Debate Team, now rank-

tn

Competing at the NoviceJunior
Varsity National Tournament in
Towson, MD, March 11-14, the
blizzard forced the debat~ competi-
tion to be held at the hotel.
"It

a junior varsity debater.

Greg Bibb, a novice debater
from Hershey,

agrees the ex~

perience was unique.
.
.
·'
But the different scenery did not
provide the idealconditions.
Competing in a hotel room. was
crowded, Bibb said, because of the
limited amount of
·space
for the
t,vo opposing teams and the
judges.

"That's.one

Jason LaScolea, a junior from
Bath, N.Y., said some students will·
probably take time

in March
regardless of a switch.
"I don't mind Spring Break be-
ing in April; but it's a long haul,"
LaScolea said. "Students are going

.
VanderHeyden said his concern
was ,vith education and the number
of days students spent in class.
"Ultimately,. it's up to me,"
vanderHeyden said. ''I have to be
concerned that we have enough
days and contact hours or we have
a problem in Albany."
Of course, not all students have
complaints about the change in
schedule, like Ryan Smirh. Smith,
a junior from Ansonia, Conn., said
he has no problem with the possi-
ble switch.

Spring? It must be. The snow is melting ~nd the runners are running.
The men's outdoor track team began its season at the U.S. Military
Academy Open in West Point, NY.
According to Head Coach Pete Colaizzo, the whole team ran a great
first meet:
•
•
•
Junior Brian Ordway ran in the 3,000-meter steeP.lechase for the first
time in his life.
•
Despite Ordway's inexperience in the event, he placed fourth with a
time of 10:03.3. The time ,vould have been good for fourth in last year's
Northeast Conference Championships.
•
•
•
• .
For the past two years, Colaizzo has been looking for an event designed
for Ordway's talents and said he believes the steeplechase is the answer.
Due to.the blizzard during spring break, sophomore Darren Ranft has
riot been able to practice at all for his event~the triple jump.
The setback did not stop Ranft, who finished in sixth place; leaping
41-feet, two-inches'-his personal best.
•
According to Colaizzo, Ranft. had one good jump out of six.
Juniors Marty Feeney and Andy Baird, and freshmen Josh Wood and
Reid Rose all set personal best times in the 5,000-meter run.
• Colaizzo said all his runners ran together passing each other all the time.
"They reeded of each other," Colaizzo said ..
The women's team also ran their first meet of the spring season at
West Point.
According to Head Coach Phil Kelly, the womeri trained very hard
Thursday and were worn out for Saturday's meet.
Colleen Carson ran 5:11.00 in the 1500-meter run. The freshman is
expected to get under five minutes by the end of the season.
Fellow freshman Theresa Hickey ran her best race of the year in the
1500.
Senior Kristy Ryan had two personal best races at West Point.
Kelly said Ryan ran a solid race despite the lack of practice. Current-
ly, the senior h'as an intern.ship in New York City which prevents her
from practicing during the week.

·days
later by an 82-61 margin.
The
championship
game·,
originally scheduled for that Satur-
day, was cancelled because of the
blizzard. The team (19-10) said the
one-day layoff adversely affected
them.
"l
•
think everyone was tired
because
of
the snow day," said
Charlene Fields. "I think hanging·
around the hotel for one day and
wanting. to get home had an ef-
fect."
Not affected by the snow day,
apparently,
·was
·the
Mount.
The Mountaineers, participants
in three of the last four NEC
Finals, shot a sizzling 48% and
played a tremendous defensive
game against the Foxes en route to
winning the coriference tournament
for the first time.
•
"They did throw
a:
full-court
press on us but we should've got-
ten through it," said Lori Keys.
"In
the FDU
game, we were hit-
ting shots - boom,
• boom, boom. ''
-
Cindy Carroll,
"We just killed ourselves."
• "They put us in a hole early and
.
,ve
certainly didn't help ourselves
•
withail the turnovers," said Fields,
the NEC's Player of the Year.
Despite turning the ball over 16
times in the first half, Marist only
trailed 37-26 at the break. The Red
Foxes lost the game at the start of
the second half when the Moun-
taineers busted out on a 17-0 run
over the opening five minutes.
'.'In the FDU game, we were hit-
tinf;shots_:_boom, boom; boom,"
said.Cindy Carroll.
«But
against
Mount St. Mary's, that's what they
did to us."
.
Carroll scored a team-high 16
points, Fields had 15 and Keys add-
ed 11 and. 10 boards. Fields and
Keys were named to the All-
Tournament ,Team.
.
"We ran into a team that was so
damn hot that we couldn't get any
stops,". said Head Coach Ken
Babineau, who won his first
playoff· game in his seven-year
career. "I don't think anyone could
•
have beaten them on that day."
The Mount's defense also dogg-
ed Fields,
.
Carroll and Melissa
Hauser all game long, making the
trio work extra-hard just
to
get
.
open
..
"A lot of the shots
I
took,
I
had
to come off screens," said Carroll.
"lt
might've caused some of us to
be frustrated."
The Foxes
s:ormed
their way in-
to
the finals with a resounding
•
14-point victory over FDU, com-
pleting a three-game season sweep
of the Knights.
Keys led the charge with 19
points, Carroll hit for 18 and Fields
netted 13.
"It
was
a
great feeling beating
them by that much," said Keys.
-'~That
proves it (beating FDU twice
·i!l•:·the
regular season) wasn't a
'f)u)<e:"
Neither was the season.
•• '.•jWe
were overachievers," said
Babineau. "We showed a lot of
basketball maturity at a very young
age."
Ttie Tennessee factor
The Marist hockey team was
supposed to be.heading to Knox-
ville, Tenn. next week to par-
ticipate in
·a
national tournam_ent,
however their
'trip
\vas
cancelled
due to a lack of teams.
·There
was a mixed reaction on
•
whether or not the cancellation af-
fected the team's play against
Siena .
Mannebach said the loss might
•
have made the
team
play soft.
Corriveau. believed Tennessee
was in the back of their minds but
was not a factor in the playoff
game.
•
Parling shots
The Marist hockey team had a
lot of poteniial to
repeat.
The team
was skating in the right
path
with
the IO-game unbeaten streak,
however when the club began
to
lose its focus, things began to fall
apart.
It is tough to tell whether or not
this team will have the same poten-
tial
after
losing
six
players to
graduation.
Whatever the case, next year's
team must improve its mentality or
next
season
could be another big
disappointment.
