Prince George’scrime levels hit35-year lowFall echoes national trend; onlyburglaries have increased since ’05
BY DARREN BOTELHOStaff writer
Although burglaries remain aproblem, crime in PrinceGeorge’s County is the lowest ithas been in 35 years, a mile-stone police officials chalk up toincreased safety programs,more patrolling officers and achange in county strategy.
The drop-off mirrors anational trend of decreasedcrime, criminology expertssaid. But county police empha-sized the local change has beenin part brought on by a concen-trated effort to pinpoint prob-
lematic areas in the region. At an awards ceremony last
Wednesday, County ExecutiveJack Johnson presented procla-mations commemorating acountywide drop in crime from2005 figures. In every areaexcept burglaries, crimedropped at least 25 percent —county burglary rates haveincreased by 2 percent since2005, said District 1 Comman-der Maj. Daniel Dusseau, whooversees county police in Col-lege Park.

Activists work tobuild city coalitions
BY DANA CETRONEStaff writer
Despite recent disagree-ments and points of contentionbetween the university and thecity of College Park, studentactivists still hope to benefitfrom a positive relationshipwith the city.
Mike Martin, an alumnusand former chairman of theMaryland state chapter of theSierra Club — a grassrootsenvironmentalist organizationthat advocates preservationand eco-friendly policies —spoke last night to more than30 students in the Stamp Stu-dent Union. Throughout histalk, he told students how hesucceeded in affecting sustain-
able change as a studentactivist by reaching out to keystakeholders, including thecity.
Student activists said theyhope their own coalition build-ing with the city will help themachieve their environmentalgoals for both the universityand the surrounding area.
“We’re talking to the city tosee where they stand on EastCampus and their own reloca-tion needs,” said Matt Dernoga,campaign coordinator for UMDfor Clean Energy, who is acolumnist at The Diamond-back. “They can have someleverage with the council repre-sentative [to the university]

Just one week into thespring semester, downtownCollege Park has suffered itsfirst restaurant casualty:Chicken Rico.
Known for serving tradi-tional Peruvian food like polloa la brasa — commonlyknown as Peruvian chicken— as well as chicken friedrice, fried plantains andyucca, Chicken Rico offeredunique choices in an area sat-urated with fried chicken andbuffalo wing eateries.
But the beloved restaurantshut its doors for good Sun-day, and a moving van pickedup Chicken Rico’s brightlycolored tables, chairs andcouches. Now, all thatremains inside are the muddyboot prints made by thosewho hastily removed the fur-niture Sunday night.
Chicken Rico’s ownerscould not be reached for com-ment.
“That’s too bad,” the city’sDirector of Planning TerrySchum said upon hearing thenews. Schum said she wouldoften hold night meetings atChicken Rico and have therestaurant cater events.
While the reason forChicken Rico’s departureremains unclear, Schum saidthat restaurants in the areaoften struggle with highrents.
“Unfortunately, in thesetimes businesses sometimeshave trouble making the highrents, and if they’re unable tonegotiate other terms withtheir landlord, they have togo,” she said.
Representatives fromGreenhill Capital Corpora-tion, which owns TerrapinStation, the stretch of storesthat housed Chicken Rico andincludes Vito’s Pizzeria andWata-Wing, declined to com-ment.

Compromise keeps Hoff Theater open on weekends,but alternatives continue to threaten landmark’s future
BY AMANDA PINOStaff writer
After Stamp officials said last semester that theHoff Theater would likely end its run as an inde-pendent theater by January 2010, a compromisemeasure is keeping the campus landmark afloat —for now.
Movies now play Thursday through Saturday atjust $3 for students and at newly standardizedtimes. Although this abbreviated schedule is adownsized version of last semester’s, Stamp Stu-dent Union officials previously considered shut-ting down the theater entirely to rent the space outto university-based groups seven days a week.With the change in plans, student groups can rentthe space for their own functions all day Sunday
through Wednesday.“It was never going to be closed,” student union
director Gretchen Metzelaars said. “We just talkedabout operating it differently, and that’s what we’redoing.”
Metzelaars noted that the theater struggled tocompete against multiplexes and Netflix, failing tobreak even for the past several years. The unprof-itable on-campus theater cost the student union$233,000 a year to operate and was given $150,000 instudent activity fees.
The Hoff’s drain on the university’s resourcesbecame especially clear when the student unionfaced major losses after renewing the UniversityBook Center’s contract with Barnes and Noble for

about what provisions he’llsupport. He also has somefinancial pull as well as politi-cal pull.”
UMD for Clean Energy isadvocating to make theupcoming East Campus the“most ambitious green devel-opment,” and is still collabo-rating with the city on anenergy loan fund — a pool ofmoney to be loaned out to cityresidents to make environ-mentally friendly upgrades intheir homes. Some studentactivists also went to Annapo-lis to meet with state legisla-tors about legalizing the loanprogram.
This sort of grassrootsadvocacy and coalition build-ing works, Martin said.
During his time as a stu-
dent, Martin struggled withthe university’s attempt tobuild a road through aforested area that is nowoccupied by Comcast Centerand to relocate greenhousesto wetlands in the same area.
Martin said it was throughreaching out to the city andother stakeholders like theSierra Club and the US ArmyCorps of Engineers that hisSierra Student Coalition wasable to prevent the universityfrom tampering with the wet-lands.
Some UMD for CleanEnergy members said thisstory mirrored their continu-ing outreach to the city inregards to the East Campusdevelopment and the StudentSustainability Committee’sprogress in saving theWooded Hillock from devel-opment.
“It doesn’t take an awful lot
to create change or pressurethe university,” Martin said.“We were able to change thephysical makeup of the cam-pus and change the course ofthe university.”
During his fight for thewetlands, Martin and otherstudent activists worked withthe city, who sued the univer-sity over the issue but lost.
Martin said city officialshelped put them in contactwith stakeholders andattracted the attention of for-mer Gov. Parris Glendening,who helped them put pres-sure on the university byappealing to university Presi-dent Dan Mote.
Martin was also a part of aSustainability committeeunder Facilities Manage-ment, whose issues he andother committee membersbrought to the attention ofthe university community.
“We reworked the Sustain-ability committee to beresponsible to the commu-nity, which made a difference
in the long run for the cam-pus,” Martin said.

county soared. During that year, the county
saw 161 homicides and 15,188auto thefts — in 2009, therewere 92 homicides and 6,106auto thefts in the county —according to police statistics.Dusseau said police buckleddown on crime by targetingneighborhoods where certaincriminal activities would hap-pen regularly.
This police work was neces-sary, he said, to prevent “fiveincidents from becoming 10.”
Crime prevention is not anovel idea, Dusseau said.
“I have a meeting every dayabout crime patterns,” Dusseausaid. “People who do certaintypes of crimes, like burglary, doit multiple times. … If we see apattern we move additionalresources to the area, sometimesfrom other parts of the county.”
Most recently resourceswere reallocated to District 1,which had 20 or more patrollingofficers from all over the countydriving the College Park streetsfollowing a rash of break-insthis past winter break.
But District 1, which includesCollege Park, led the county indecreased auto thefts, whichcriminal justice and criminol-ogy professor Charles Wellfordsaid could be attributed to sev-eral factors.
In the last few years, Wellfordsaid, police have been enforc-ing laws to keep early morningcommuters from warming their
car in the driveway while theyget ready for work, inviting car-jackers to drive away with theirvehicle. When patrolling offi-cers find an unattended car run-ning they issue a warning first,then a fine for a second offense.
“Increased enforcement hasstepped up in the last couple ofyears, and there has been adecrease in the number of stolenvehicles in Prince George’sCounty,” Wellford said.
He added other factors,including a relative stabilizationof the drug trade, less fightingbetween drug dealers and anaging generation of criminalswho pose less of a threat havealso attributed to the drop incrime rate, though it is unclearby how much.
“Research says all of thosereasons play a factor, but tryingto provide a precise estimate ofwhat all of those things havecontributed has not beenachieved,” Wellford said.“Nationally, crime rates havedeclined for whatever reason.”
Although crime rates havedecreased across the board,police are still receiving thesame number of emergencycalls, Dusseau said.
“Police in the county receive182,000 calls for service peryear, which is not down from2005,” he said. “But crime isdown, so that means people arecalling the police for things theywouldn’t have before. ... In thisday and age, people will call thepolice for anything. But weencourage that.”

$1.4 million less than pastagreements.
Operating the Hoff for apartial week will allow thestudent union to spend$30,000 to $40,000 less on thetheater, Metzelaars said.
Students were relieved tohear the decades-old Hoffwas not gone for good.
“It’s a good compromise,”junior criminology and crimi-nal justice major RobertElzein said. “I think it wouldbe a good idea to keep itaround for people who don’tgo out drinking at night, and
would rather just stay in andwatch a movie.”
Others liked that studentgroups now had an opportu-nity to utilize the space ondays when the theater wouldsometimes show films to anempty auditorium.
“I think it’s probably betterthis way, so that students areable to take advantage of hav-ing a nice stage,” sophomorecommunication major AngelSchlogel said. “I know we’vehad theatrical groups per-form in upstairs rooms inStamp, and I think it’s betterto use a theater for that.”
The Hoff’s student employ-ees said the new schedule willhelp bring in more people to
see movies. Thursday through Satur-
day were the theater’s high-est grossing days, and theHoff has also restricted showtimes to the popular 5 p.m.,7:30 p.m., and 10 p.m. slots.
One employee, who askedto remain anonymous becausehe wasn’t sure if student unionemployees were authorized totalk to the press, said hethinks the changes are goingto be a success.
“We’re keeping costs lowand showing more recentmovies,” he said. “We’ve onlybeen open one weekend thissemester, but I noticed a lotmore people came out.”
Although Metzelaars said
she has accepted that Hoffwill never be a profit-makingventure, she hopes the the-ater will finally break even.
But, Metzelaars said, shecouldn’t promise that allow-ing the Hoff Theater toremain open for movies, evenon a more limited schedule,would be a risk-free gamble.
If students continue toleave the theater empty andopt instead for rentals or see-ing movies at off-campusmovie theaters, the Hoffmight still be in danger ofbeing shut down in thefuture.
“We continue to questionwhether movies are still aviable piece [of the student
union], whether studentswatch them here when theyhave RedBox or can justdownload them onto theircomputers,” Metzelaars said.“We watch everything in the
Union very closely, like theTerpZone and the theater, tomake sure people wantthem.”

Riccio said places like his pizzeriaand Chicken Rico are able to givepersonal touches that chains like

Cars slipped and slid down cityroads Saturday morning in the sec-ond biggest snowfall of the seasonas drivers complained of danger-ous conditions and poorly-plowedroads.
“The roads were icy and danger-ous — [Authorities] should havetaken measures to prevent it espe-cially with all of the campus activityfrom make-up finals,” senior gov-ernment and politics major SharonGoldsmith said.
Many students drove to the uni-versity Saturday to take make-upfinal exams. Snow continued toplague these students whose origi-nal fall semester exams were can-celed due to a snowstorm inDecember that left the city and uni-versity under two feet of snow.
Sophomore French majorJulianne McAndrews drove to theuniversity Saturday for sororityrecruitment, an event that alsobrought many students to theroads in the snowy weather. McAn-drews said both the universityroads and city roads were hard tonavigate.
“I’m from Connecticut, and I was
shocked to see how slow they wereto clean up the snow,” McAndrewssaid. “I don’t understand how thearea can be so unprepared. It hap-pens every year.”
The city’s Director of PublicWorks Bob Stumpff said the city isnot responsible for all of the roadsin the area, with many falling undercounty and state jurisdiction. Partsof Greenbelt and Paint BranchParkway are the responsibility ofPrince George’s County and thestate is in charge of Route 1. Theuniversity is responsible forgrooming its own roads.
Stumpff also said the situationbecomes complicated as the countyand state do not want the city clear-ing their roads.
The city had every snowplow outby 10 a.m. and worked through theday to ensure all streets would beopen and clear by early Sunday,Stumpff said.
Saturday night into Sundaymorning, some streets, includingRoute 1, did still have snow onthem, but the city streets werecleared, Stumpff said.
“We felt we did a good job,”Stumpff said. “If students expectevery street to be cleared an hourlater, it won’t — we’re just not
geared to do that.” Students, however, were still
concerned and worried as theybraved the weather to drivethrough the city. Goldsmith saidthe going was slow and the snowon the roads made it hard to drive.
“Walking down Route 1, driversdidn’t seem to have much controlat all over their cars, it was terrify-ing,” Goldsmith said. “I’m lucky tohave an SUV, but it still took me 15minutes to get from Stamp [Stu-dent Union] to my house, and I hadvery little control the whole way.”
Senior kinesiology major SarahWenzel said she “fish-tailed in firstgear at least four times” while driv-ing from the campus to her houseon College Avenue.
And it was not just a journey totake a final or get to the university.
That was only half the battle asstudents faced the roads again totravel back home. In what wouldnormally be a few-minute trip toher sorority house on Frat Row,Goldsmith struggled to make itback from the university.
“It was the longest 15 minutes ofmy life driving home,” Goldsmithsaid.
Although many students complained about the lack of salters and snow plows on roads, some university employees,such as this one, removed snow from sidewalks on the campus Saturday night. JACLYN BOROWSKI/THE DIAMONDBACK

Letting it snowUniversity students bemoan the slow response to first
heavy snowfall of the semester
I ’m walking up Campus Drivetoward the Stamp StudentUnion. I hear a voice behind meexclaim, “Hey, excuse me, can I
ask you a question?” Knowing full wellwhat it is, I say sure.
“Are those solar panels on yourbackpack?”
Why yes, they are.“Wow, what do they power?” Small electronics like my cell phone
and my iPod. “That is so cool!” Yes, it’s pretty awesome.Ever since I won a solar powered
backpack on Earth Day in 2008, thishas happened to me a few times a day,everywhere I go.
My backpack comes with a ton ofadapters for all sorts of different elec-tronic devices to hook up to the panels,as well as a lithium ion battery to storethe energy for later use. You can find iton www.VoltaicSystems.com for $250.
There have definitely been somememorable moments:
One time a friend of mine was takento the emergency room, and when Iwent to the hospital, the doctorsstopped while treating him to ask meabout the backpack. Good thing hesurvived.
Another time I was at a youth envi-ronmental summit with 12,000 activistsand was getting stopped every 30 sec-onds to the contempt of my friends.
When I table at the First Look Fairfor the environmental group I’m in, Ijust sit the backpack on the table anddraw the unsuspecting freshmen in. It’s
like shooting fish in a barrel with abazooka.
The best was the prank I pulled on afriend who gripes all the time that I wonthe backpack instead of him (he wasright behind me in line for the raffle).
The following year, I had the organiz-ers of the raffle for the 2009 Earth Daysend him a fake e-mail announcing Ihad won another backpack for the sec-ond year in a row, the odds of whichwere a large, made-up number. Whenasked if I would share, I was quoted assaying “God gave me two shoulders fora reason.” He flipped.
There is actually an argument to bemade here. If ordinary college studentsare so intrigued by this technology on abackpack, imagine what would happenif a few kids in each school around thecountry won these backpacks throughessay contests.
Our education system is trying totackle a major challenge: getting kids
interested in fields such as math, sci-ence and engineering. Our main short-coming has been a failure to make itcool and make it resonate. If we showkids at a young age how renewableenergy technologies can apply tocharging their iPods and their cellphones, they’ll be hooked.
Alas, this backpack came too late forme. My high school scared me awayfrom math and science ate my lunch (Ididn’t know frogs like peanut butter).But until our schools decide to use myidea to save the children, I’m the onlygame in town. The guy who won lastyear doesn’t count.
So yes, if you see a guy walking infront of you and you think you see solarpanels, they are. Yes, it’s pretty awe-some. Try it.

I turn 20 today. Yessir, yourstruly is leaving the teensbehind (finally) and moving onto the beginning of her third
decade here on this wonderful worldof ours.
Birthdays are a good time. Theymean cake and presents and partiesand family and friends and the oneday a year that belongs to you —unless you’re a twin, in which caseyou have to share. And if you’re atriplet, well, don’t even bother. But asyou get older, they also mean realiz-ing you’re getting older. There’s thatfaint voice in your head that keepsreminding you that you ain’t gettingany younger; you should be out therehaving adventures, making moves,curing cancer, doing something.
I don’t know when birthdays aresupposed to become a day of mourn-ing instead of celebration. Most of us
probably haven’t hit it yet, but I’vealready had twinges: heading back tohigh school football games, trollingthe mall, watching Olympic gymnas-tics, looking at R. Kelly’s girlfriends.
When I think of the number 20, Istart to get a little panicky. After all,20 years is a long time, and whathave I done with it? Taylor Swiftbecame more popular than Jesus.Joan of Arc led the French army tovictory, heard the call of God, got aking crowned, was sold to the Eng-lish, was burned at the stake and setherself on the path to sainthood, allby age 19. And don’t even get mestarted on Stewie Griffin. Let’s justsay that kid is going places.
Have I done anything that incredi-ble? Have any of us? Probably not.We don’t need to. You don’t have tobe a star to make your corner of theworld a little brighter. But I still don’t
want to turn 30 and look back andsee an empty decade.
My grandfather was diagnosedwith stage 4 pancreatic cancer inOctober. He was given days or maybeweeks to live. He made it threemonths, and in those three monthshe was given a second chance toreconnect with his family, makeamends for bad memories and createmore good ones. I thank God for itand for the lesson it imparted: Don’twait until your time is up to startusing it like you should. Stop lookingtoward tomorrow and wishing for
yesterday, and start living for today.Sometimes today is all you’ve got.
You’ve probably heard this sayingspoken by my man Abe Lincoln, butI’ll tell it anyway: “In the end, it’s notthe years in your life that count, butthe life in your years.” It’s the people,the places, the good times and bad,that make a life. We’ve been given agift — as corny as it sounds, let’s notforget to take the wrapping off.
We’ve got two options: Stop timefrom advancing or view its passageas an accomplishment, a point ofpride. How do we do this? By livinglife as we want to live it, as we envi-sioned living it back when we werekids. I’ll start today.

Birthdays: The dawn of a new age
The fracas about the Wooded Hillock has consumed parts of this univer-sity community for about a year — and with news Thursday that thesite may yet be saved with the university’s purchase of The WashingtonPost Company’s College Park plant site, the controversy might only
now be coming to a head. Yet, even as new issues arise, we would be remiss tonot recognize the current situation as already being a major victory for adminis-tration-student relations.
Few issues have garnered such strong student support.Both the Student Government Association and the GraduateStudent Government have overwhelmingly passed resolu-tions in support of saving the hillock, in addition to studentgroups that have been vocal since news broke last year thatthe proposed East Campus development threatened the 22.4acre forest.
Yet for a long time, it seemed the university would eschewthese strained voices coming from the student populace,instead pushing forward with the $900 million project thatwould wipe out the hillock with 38 acres of new development.
Administrators may have had their reasons for building over the hillock site,and indeed those reasons could very well have been justified. And even now, thedeal could fall through, leaving nothing but pavement and environmentalistsshedding silent tears outside the newest College Park Wendy’s location.
But no matter what happens from now on, we should look at the univer-sity’s attempt as a mark of good faith by administrators to legitimize thevoices of students.
It’s no secret that the relationship between many students and the adminis-tration is strained, and probably much of that is by design: Student activists in
particular often find themselves naturally averse to any and all things proposedby the administration.
But this year, many of the loudest activist voices were joined by students whohave become disconcerted with the back-and-forth over the hillock, added to theever-present flow of student criticism about things like budget transparency. Theadministration has, in this instance, shown that it is listening. It’s safe to say thatthe university has thrown students a bone.
We apologize for the following pun, but we’re not out of thewoods yet.
Despite the university’s new efforts to avoid building overthe hillock site, student leaders are still frustrated becausethey were barred from the discussion about buying the oldPost plant. To some, this shows yet another instance wherethe university has acted on the behalf of students withoutworking with students and is another demonstration of thedisconnect between university officials and student leaders.
But to simply dismiss the university’s pending acquisitionof the site as a halfhearted attempt to silence student critics
would be missing the point. Yes, the relationship between administrators and student leaders could
improve, as it always could. But in this instance at least, the university was will-ing to get creative and reorganize an almost-billion-dollar project, in no smallpart because of the views of students. We consider the olive branch extended, ifonly for a moment.
The administration and students here have had somewhat of a rocky year, butcredit should be given where it is due. To call this gesture an insignificant onewould be a case of not seeing the forest through all the trees.

In the beginning of theschool year, the StudentGovernment Associationand the Residence Hall
Association set goals to increasetheir collaboration. After all, thetwo organizations have influenceover nearly every aspect of stu-dent life on the campus, and col-laboration would only serve tohelp improve the lives of the26,000 undergraduate students.
This goal has been set before byprevious administrations of bothorganizations, but this year we areproud to say we have taken posi-tive, tangible steps toward agreater level of teamwork, settingthe groundwork for future collabo-ration on important initiatives.
For the first time since the 2005- 2006 academic year, the SGApresident has appointed an RHArepresentative to serve on theCommittee for the Review of Stu-dent Fees.
It is vital to have proper studentrepresentation on this committee,especially this spring, as the com-mittee reviews fee proposals fromthe Departments of Dining Ser-vices, Resident Life, FacilitiesManagement, and TransportationServices. These departments thataffect both resident and com-muter students.
The decision to include an RHArepresentative allows for the mostappropriate insight into the com-plex and important job of settingstudent fees.
But the collaboration doesn’tstop there. In the wake of the dev-astating earthquake that struckHaiti, we are proud of how stu-dents have joined together to helpin any way they can. Groups suchas University of Maryland Stu-dents Helping Haiti have shownwhat we are able to accomplishwhen we come together.
In that light, the SGA and RHAare working with Dining Servicesto hold a dining points drive. Since2007, Dining Services has allowedfor philanthropic meal point drivesas long as they are endorsed bythe RHA.
For the first time ever, the SGAand the RHA will be workingtogether to run this drive with pro-ceeds benefiting earthquake vic-tims in Haiti.
The one-day drive is set to takeplace on Feb. 12, exactly onemonth after the initial earthquakeas part of the campus-wide Heartsfor Haiti Week. Students on diningplans will be able to donate theirpoints as part of the larger effortto pull our collective resources tohelp Haiti. To keep up to date onother ambitious Haiti-relatedrelief projects at the university, besure to check out http://www.face-book.com/UMDhelpingHaiti.
As we look forward to the rest ofthe semester, we will continue col-laborating to ensure your voice isheard and you are properly repre-sented in all areas of this university.Recent events have shown thechange we can implement when wecome together. And that’s exactlywhat we intend to continue doing.

Born today, you enjoy spend-ing time with friends andfamily members, but your
most valuable time is often spentby yourself, thinking about theworld around you and coming upwith one idea after another thatcan benefit you, those around youand the world at large. Because ofthis, your physical surroundingsare keenly important to you, foryou cannot do your best thinkingjust anywhere. You cherish timespent in the home, and you arelikely to surround yourself withcomfort rather than signs of sta-tus or accomplishment. That oldarmchair is far more important toyou than any new trend in interiordesign.
You don’t always share yourfeelings with those around you —and this includes family members,close friends and even your mate.It’s not so much that you are se-cretive, but rather self-protective.
Also born on this date are Far-rah Fawcett, actress; Ayn Rand,author; Christie Brinkley, model;Shakira, singer; James Joyce, au-thor; Tommy Smothers, entertain-er; Jascha Heifetz, violinist.

“The Album Leaf is a bandthat dangerously walks theline between beautyand boredom. Theband — or, moreaccurately, itsleader JimmyLaValle — haslong been con-cerned with theconstruction ofquiet sound-scapes where thedrums are ever-pres-ent but non-obtrusive,the occasional vocals are mono-tone and act as another instru-ment, and the idea of distortionshould never, ever be mentioned.On his latest, A Chorus of Story-tellers, LaValle doesn’t try to domuch to change his formula.”— Jon WolperRATING: 3 stars out of 5
NNEKA, CONCRETE JUNGLE
“A pop artist seeminglyhas to be part of the

ual effects of thegenre’s label. Although
Concrete Jungle is Nneka’s firstU.S. release, the album is actual-ly a compilation of her besttracks that are already out over-seas, where she is a critical dar-ling.”— Zack BermanRATING: 4 stars out of 5

REVIEW | LIL WAYNE
The Rebirth of rock’s ruinsLil Wayne’s latest is a copy-cat effort of rock music’s worst
BY ALEX RUSHSenior staf f writer
Despite plenty of lyrics indicat-ing a progressive state of mind,most of Lil Wayne’s overall compo-sitions on Rebirth — his latest stu-dio album — utilize played out mu-sical clichés.
The album, on which the self-de-scribed “best rapper alive” em-braces rock music, has been in theworks for a while. It has had aseemingly endless number ofchanges to its release date sinceWayne announced its concept lastyear. So although Wayne had plentyof time to work on Rebirth and craftan innovative hip-hop-rock hybrid,he ended up falling back on mostlyweak impersonations of emo-punk,grunge, blues rock, ’90s-style alter-native rock and nu metal.
But the worse part is, Lil Waynetries to mask his strained, raspyvoice with Auto-Tune.
It’s clear Lil Wayne is not a singerin the traditional sense — he’s defi-nitely not going to bust some oper-atic, Freddy Mercury-esque notes.But even those who have to straintheir throats to hit notes (thinkBruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan) cancommunicate melody and emotionin a thrillingly unorthodox manner.Unfortunately, Lil Wayne’s manipu-lated vocals sound forced, like abad acting job.
Take “Paradice” for an example.Wayne sounds like Eddie Vedderwith his nuts in a vice when hesings gag-inducing, overdone linessuch as “Sun don’t shine forever/And everything that glitter ain’tgold.” However, he does redeemhimself a bit when he calms downand decides to rap more introspec-tive verses, such as “Call me crazy,I’ve been called worse/ It’s like Ihave it all, but what’s it all worth?”
And on “The Price is Wrong,”Wayne throws a temper tantrumabout a break-up with a high schoolgirlfriend. His extreme teenageangst would even seem out of placeat a Starting Line show in New Jer-sey in 2001.
Other album duds include “OneWay Trip,” which is ruined by aNickelback-meets-Lifehouse-typechorus and unmemorable verses,and “Prom Queen,” dragged down
by a dull tempo, unnecessarily dis-torted guitars and content straightfrom a 1990s teen movie.
But for all of Wayne’s wackness,the Martian spits a few rhymes thatare out of this world.
He consistently refers to Re-birth’s theme of a musical and per-sonal transformation. On “Drop theWorld,” the most traditional hip-hop track of the LP, Wayne kicksraps that are strong enough to in-spire frustrated workers go onstrike. He proclaims he will “pickup the world and drop it on yourf–––ing head” and “all thisbulls–––t made me strong.”
On the opening track, the seem-ingly Black Keys-influenced“American Star,” Wayne raps about
overcoming obstacles. Lyrics suchas “Born and raised in the U.S.A./By way of New Orleans where thekillas stay” and “My ancestors wereslaves in the U.S.A./ But not today”show that Wayne accepts his roughupbringing and is ready to musical-ly motivate.
He gets even more political on“Ground Zero,” which contains ele-ments of 1980s punk and new wave.The Clash would be proud ofWayne’s rant raps about govern-ment corruption, though perhapsnot as proud of the pseudo-Englishaction he takes on for part of thesong. Wayne continues to an-
nounce his reach for new heightswith lyrics such as “May I be any-thing but grounded” and “I don’teven know which cloud I’m on.”

54,000, while Ludwig Fieldsits 6,000 for soccer games,and a significant amount lessfor lacrosse.
“[I] definitely like Byrd100 times more than Lud-wig,” attackman Ryan Youngsaid. “I think a lot of peoplecame to Maryland because ofbeing able to play at Byrd.It’s just a perk of being aTerp.”
Players noted the lacrossehistory of Byrd Stadium,which was home to the 1973and 1975 Terp national cham-pionship teams as well asnumerous All-Americans,adds to the excitement ofplaying there.
Byrd Stadium has alsohosted historic games andfinal fours, including the1995 and 1997 national title
games, in which the Terpslost before crowds of morethan 25,000 people.
“I think just the legacy ofByrd, being around so longand having a tradition behindMaryland lacrosse [makes itmore exciting],” goalkeeperBrian Phipps said. “Thewhole aura of the football sta-dium, the huge stadium, justgives it a whole new level ofintensity.”
The prospect of having alarger crowd isn’t missed bythe Terps, who said they feedoff the fans’ energy.
“It’s just a bigger stagewhen you play at Byrd, soeveryone gets more excitedfor the games,” Young said.
“It’s probably intimidatingfor some schools to come inand see the huge stadium,”Phipps said. “And it gives usmore of a sense of prideknowing it’s our home field.”
The Terps enter this sea-
son with their usual heavyshare of expectations and areranked preseason No. 8 byInside Lacrosse.
The team is hoping torebound from an up-and-down campaign a year ago,and it starts with winning athome.
The Terps have a lighthome schedule, with five reg-ular season games sched-uled. They will host the ACCTournament, which includestwo rounds, in April.
“We can’t wait to get backin there and start it up,” saidPhipps, a senior captain.“We’re coming into Byrd,and our goal is to be unde-feated at home. Right now,it’s our home turf. We missedit last year, so this year we’regonna have to come in andplay well at home and defendour turf.”

today.”The Terps (14-6, 4-2 ACC)
showed that grit rallyingfrom an 11-point second-halfdeficit to take the lead inwhat was by far their worstoffensive showing of theACC season. But in a game inwhich the teams combined toshoot just 33 percent whilecommitting 47 turnovers, theTerps couldn’t close out thecomeback win that would’vekept them alone atop the con-ference standings.
Clemson hit just two fieldgoals — including a key 3-pointer by forward TrevorBooker — in the final fiveminutes, but they saltedaway the win at the foul lineby the holding the Terpsscoreless in the final 4:06.
“We’re going to have moreof those games coming up,”guard Eric Hayes said.“We’re going to have a toughgame at Florida State [onThursday], so this is some-thing we can learn from.”
The Terps, who were comingoff two of their most lopsided
home conference wins in Com-cast Center history, haven’tplayed too many tight gamesthis season. As Williamspointed out, they were playingtoo well in winning six of sevengames before Sunday to thinkabout grinding.
The final margin againstClemson became nine whenforward Landon Milbournefouled Booker 90 feet fromthe basket in the closing sec-
onds. Booker went on to hit apair of free throws. TheTerps’ lone ACC gamedecided by fewer points wasan 85-83 overtime defeat atWake Forest on Jan. 12.
But on a night whenVasquez and Milbourne com-bined to shoot 4-for-19, stay-ing within striking distanceproved an accomplishment.
Williams said he expectedhis team would have to shootwell to have a shot against aTigers squad that has beennationally ranked for muchof the season.
They didn’t and missed a bigchance to steal a road win.
But playing in a confer-ence in which every teamhas at least two wins and twolosses, it’s likely they’ll haveother chances.
“Today, we didn’t play aswell,” Williams said. “I lookat it as we were able to stay inthere not playing well, andwe had an opportunity to winit at the end of the game,which is the positive for us.That’s what we’ll go for andmake corrections on why wedidn’t play better.”

BY JONAS SHAFFERStaff writer
Once again, the ACC hasproven to be a powerhouse inwomen’s basketball. Whetherthat will help or hurt the Ter-rapin women’s basketballteam’s shot for a NCAA Tour-nament bid remains to be seen.
With all 12 teams ranked inthe top 100 of CollegeRPI.comcreator Jerry Palm’s latest Rat-ings Percentage Index (RPI)standings, the conference cur-rently ranks as the thirdstrongest in the nation. Andwhile the league doesn’t sportthe top-heavy might of the Big12, which has four teamsranked inside the RPI’s top 10,it could be poised to send asmany as seven teams to theNCAA Tournament for the firsttime since 2006.
Duke, Florida State, GeorgiaTech, North Carolina, N.C.State, Virginia and the Terpsall project as tournamentteams, according to Palm’s lat-est bracket projection, updatedlast Wednesday.
The Terps’ standing may bethe least sound of the group.With a middling RPI and aver-age strength of schedule, Palmhas the Terps as among thelast four teams in, a precariousposition for any bubble team.
They won’t have to wait longto see how they stack up. TheTerps kick off the last of theirseven conference games withhome contests against twolikely tournament-bound teamsin Georgia Tech and Virginia. If
they can sweep that homestand, the Terps (16-6, 3-4 ACC)may need only two wins in theremaining five games to securethe program’s seventh straighttournament appearance.
EXPERIENCE SHOWSThursday inside Cassell Col-
iseum, guard Lori Bjork andcenter Lynetta Kizer couldhardly miss.
The duo went a combined16-for-24 in a 60-44 dismantlingof Virginia Tech, accountingfor two-thirds of the team’stotal scoring in the Terps’ cru-cial conference victory. It did-n’t matter that they took almosthalf of the shots against theHokies because that night, likemost others in conference playthis season, the duo with themost experience on the teamcarried the Terps.
Not including Bjork andKizer, the team shot just 25percent from the field Thurs-day, a mark only slightly worsethan average for the team’sassortment of role players.While Bjork and Kizer — theonly two players on the rosterscoring in double digits in con-ference play — have combinedfor 55 percent shooting thisyear in the ACC, the rest of theteam is under 37 percent.When reserve forward TiannaHawkins’ 51 percent mark isexcluded, the rate drops to33.3 percent.
Other Terps have steppedup in other areas — guardJackie Nared had eightrebounds in just 19 minutes
against the Hokies, whileguard Dara Taylor led all play-ers with nine assists. But thefreshmen tandem combinedfor 3-for-11 shooting Thursday.
“We always talk about beready when your number’scalled,” coach Brenda Fresesaid. “You’ve got to be able tohave that within your team.”
SHELL SHUFFLEAfter more than a half-sea-
son of shuffling, the Terps mayhave finally found some consis-tency in their starting five.
The starting lineup of KimRodgers, Diandra Tchatch-ouang, Taylor, Bjork and Kizerthat Frese trotted out Sundayagainst Longwood became thefirst such outfit to start morethan three games in a row forthe Terps this season. Thelineup is 3-2 together.
Frese has experimentedwith bigger lineups in confer-ence play, including a three-for-ward look with Hawkins as astarter, but the diversity ofstarters has diminishedrecently as Rodgers hasworked her way back from ahand injury and the play ofTaylor as the team’s pointguard has improved.
“I think everybody under-stands that we can’t make themistakes that we were making[at the start of the season],”said Rodgers, who has started11 games this season. “We’reall really focused. We’re takingit seriously.”
“We’re going tohave more ofthose gamescoming up. We’regoing to have atough game atFlorida State [onThursday], sothis is somethingwe can learnfrom.”

Last season, the Terrapinmen’s lacrosse team con-stantly tried to establish itsidentity, striving to live up tothe lofty expectations set byan unexpected run to theNCAA Tournament quarterfi-nals the previous year.
Yet plagued by inconsis-tency, the Terps never could.
Through the up-and-downseason, they never had a win-ning streak longer than twogames or scored a signaturewin. Their regular seasonresults were mirrored bytheir postseason effort — theTerps overcame an unseededtournament berth to upsetNotre Dame 7-3, then lost toeventual national championSyracuse 11-6 in a deflatingend to a disappointing year.
“We lost games early andwe became disappointedbecause in our minds, in therankings, we weren’t sup-posed to lose,” coach DaveCottle said. “We started wor-rying about outside influencesand became distracted.”
The Terps will not have tocontend with that problemthis time around — the Terpsare No. 8 in the Nike/InsideLacrosse preseason mediapoll, the team’s least impres-sive preseason ranking innine years.
They plan to build off thebest parts of last season whileavoiding pitfalls that comefrom outside pressures.
“Being an underdog pumpsus up,” junior attackman RyanYoung said. “We have a littlechip on our shoulder. Thiskind of feels more like when Iwas a freshman, with a presea-son rank in the lower top 10. Itjust gives us a little attitude tostart the season, which is agood thing, always. We’re try-ing to prove people wrong.”
Their shot at success willrest largely on their upper-classmen.
For the first time in threeyears, the Terps have morejuniors and seniors thanfreshmen and sophomores,and Cottle said the team willrely on the veterans to give
the team the upper hand.That experience is most
clearly visible in the highlytouted attacking unit, espe-cially Young and fellow jun-iors Travis Reed and GrantCatalino, last year’s goals andassists leader, as well as sen-ior Will Yeatman, a transferwho came to the Terps lastseason.
All four were starters lastyear but were still establish-ing their roles on the team.
The Terps ended the sea-son ranked an underwhelm-ing 20th in the country inscoring offense with a goalper game average just barelyin the double digits, at 10scores per game.
To change that, Cottle saidhe plans to have all four play-ers on the field as much aspossible. He’ll also rotatethem into one of three mid-field spots to increase thepotency of the attack.
Another reason Cottle willrotate attackmen to the mid-field is the lack of experiencein that group, especially whencompared to the other, upper-classmen-laden units.
Senior Bryn Holmes willcontinue to take face-offs forthe team, but after losingthree important senior con-tributors in Dan Groot, JeffReynolds and Jeremy Siev-erts, most midfield positionsremain question marks.
“I think we have some num-bers,” Cottle said. “Our lookat it is we’re going to start offplaying nine to 12 kids onoffense, and those kids will allgive us something different,and hopefully somebody willtake advantage of that andtake control.”
The defense should pro-vide the midfield some sup-port on the back end.
Junior midfielders Max andBrett Schmidt, who are notrelated, both will return to thestarting lineup, and long poleBrian Farrell will make hisreturn from injury hiatus.The redshirt junior, whoplayed in only the first threegames of last season beforegoing down with an injury,specializes in feeding the ballup the field and will bring
back the transition game theTerps sorely lacked duringhis absence.
“He’s just the spark andenergy of the defense and hecan go play offense too,” sen-ior goalkeeper Brian Phippssaid. “So we’re going to havethat surprise factor this yearhaving him on defense andalso able to go and score onoffense, so it’s going to be alot of fun to have him back.”
Phipps, too, is returningfrom an injury, a torn ACL hesustained during the team’sfinal game of the year againstSyracuse when he jumped inthe air to protest a call andlanded awkwardly.
Yet despite missing the fallseason, he comes into theyear as the sole starter for thefirst time in his career.
He split time in the cagethe past two seasons with
Jason Carter before winningthe full starting job in thepostseason with a nine-saveperformance against NotreDame.
Still, while Phipps said asecure spot in the startinglineup is comforting, it hasn’tstopped his competitive drive.The sting of last year’s incon-sistent performance and dis-appointing finish remainfresh in his mind, and he willnot let his final year as a Terpend the same way.
“It’s frustrating when youalways come up short,”Phipps said. “But hopefullywe can resurrect it this year.At Maryland, you come hereto be the best.”

CLEMSON, S.C. — Withthe Terrapin men’s basketballteam in desperate need of anoffensive spark, guardGreivis Vasquez movedtoward the Clemson basketlate in Sunday’s game.
A basket would’ve made it aone-possession contest in thefinal two minutes. Instead,when Vasquez’s outstretchedleft arm sent Clemson’s Tan-ner Smith tumbling to thefloor, the senior star’s offen-sive foul became the Terps’26th turnover of the evening.
In a mistake-filled buthighly competitive contest,the play was one of the finalstraws in a disappointing 62-53 loss — and an informalwelcome to what this year’sACC has been.
For weeks, the conferenceschedule has been litteredwith low-scoring, close fin-ishes as teams have failed todifferentiate themselves fromthe parity-filled pack.
The Terps, by averagingmore than 80 points per gameand shooting nearly 48 per-cent en route to a 4-1 ACCstart, had been largelyimmune to the tests faced by
their conference brethren.They got a rude introduc-
tion to the less-than-beautifulbrand of basketball at a hos-tile Littlejohn Coliseum.
If the Terps hope to make a
run at a conference crown,especially this season, they’lllikely have to gut out someugly wins along the way.
“We didn’t shoot the ball atall like we’ve been shooting it,
and we were still there at theend of the game with achance, so that part wasgood,” coach Gary Williamssaid. “But just in terms of get-ting beat to the ball, you
know, all those little hustleplays, I thought Clemson hadthe edge today. We weredoing those things before

TERRAPIN MEN’S LACROSSESEASON PREVIEW
Terps justfine underthe radar
BY JAKOB ENGELKEStaf f writer
Sophomore attackmanJoe Cummings remembersgrowing up and watchingthe Terrapin men’s lacrosseteam play at Byrd Stadium.
He can remember theplayers running throughthe tunnel and touchingTestudo’s nose as theystormed the field in front ofthousands of fans.
He says it’s somethinghe’s wanted to do his wholelife.
“I grew up in the Mary-land area,” Cummings said.“That’s one of the images,growing up, I rememberseeing all the time and itwas pretty cool.”
Despite an impressivefreshman season, whichincluded 12 goals and a nodon the 2009 ACC All-Tourna-ment team, Cummings hasnever actually stepped foot onthe field at Byrd Stadium.
Instead, the Towsonnative has only played atneighboring Ludwig Field,traditionally home to themen’s and women’s soccerteams.
Ludwig Field became thelacrosse team’s home awayfrom home during the reno-vation of Tyser Tower andthe addition of 64 suites and440 mezzanine seats to thesouth side of the stadium.The Terps played all of theirhome games at LudwigField last season and four oftheir seven home gamesthere in 2008.
This year, the Terps willplay all their home games atByrd Stadium.
The two stadiums havetheir obvious dif ferences.Byrd Stadium can seat up to
