He told lawmakers prirarely that he would notbow to Democratic pressure on his tax<ut plan. "lam not wonied about my legacy," he told rhem,according to two participants in the privatemeeting. Afterward, he met in the Vhire Houseresidence with House Soeaker Dennis Hastert.

DENVER (AP) - Colorado officials aredetermined to create high-speed Internetaccess for all counties, even if they don't wantIt,

It may take years to fulfill Gov. Bill Owens'dream of wiring counties which has beendubbed the "&anpole Project" because of thestalklike line drawings of fiber optics and thegangly copper, cable and wireless connectionsrequired,

lhe proiect was de.signed to provide a{inancial incentive for private telephonecompanies to run high-speed fiber optic linesto rural county seats that were largely ignored.

It provides the last-mile link forgovernments, homes and offices to the otherpan of Owens' vision, the Muhi-Use NenrorkProlect to link every county sert to sulteagencies as pan of a step toward e-Swernment.

In all, 36 of 63 counties are panicipating.The program, approved by the Legislature

in 1999, has not been without its problems.Delays in getting fiber optic cable and

upgrading switching stations on the supplyside were complicated by problems on theother end, such as convincing counties it wasin their best interest to ioin.

So hr, the project is about a yeu behind.Ihe latat plan calls for the first hookups to becomplete'by July 1. Particigans say therealready have been so many setbacks theyopect it to-be later in the year. The sratepredicts it will ake four years to complete it.

The program already has cost $4.8 million.This par, Owens is asking for $5 million moreto kecp it going. Pmgram managers predictthe iinal sute cost could reach $30 million.

Park County officials refused topanicipate, calling the program a Trojan horse,said Flo Raiuno, director of the ColoradoRural Development Council.

"They said this is going n bring growth,we don't want gowth, go away. Vho are we totell them they're nuts?" she asked.

Gary Ashida, vice president of OteroJunior College, agreed to help link ciry andcounty offices in Bent, Prowers, Baca, Kiowa,Cron'ley and Otero counties. He expecs to beone of the first to connect. Other coundesready to panicipate include El Paso, Pueblo,and Mesa.

into the o(pertise offered by metro areahospiuls for consultations and training.

The plan is pan of Owens' bigger goal ofhelping control growth by encouraging bigcompanies to take businesses to places rhatneed the jobs and growth, and away from theFront Range which enjoyed the bulk of theeconomic boom.

"rfflhen you talk about economicdevelopment for communities outside theFront Range, companies want to know abouthigh-speed Internet connections. Until thatoccurs, nothing else can be seriouslydiscussed," said Dick Vadhams, Owens'

spoKesman.Bob Brooks, director of the sute

Department of Local Affairs, said the state ishoping recalcitrant counties will see the savingsand economic benefits of the program andeventually join.

Raitano said Eagle Count,v was reluctantbecause Vail has upgraded many o[ its phoneconnections. She said that view is shortsightedbecause other county residents will be left out,along with those in smaller counties whichcannot participate at all.

"This will put adisadvantage. Ve are

communities to do things they do not want todo. Those pmple need to tell those oftcialswhat they want," Raiuno said.

I had to do something loathsomethis week. Something I find mpelfneeding to do at least a couple times ayear. Something I find not onlyaltogether unpleasant and stressful, butusually expensive as well,

No, I didn't go to the dentist. Ihad to call the phone company.

Bv phone company I mean, ofcourse, Qwest, since, like most Coloradans, I don't havemuch choice about my phone service provider.According to Qwest, they've really improved their serviceso I guess this lack of competition isn't really a problemto customers like you and me.

In fact, founh quaner earnings at Qwest are up 44percent, so they must be doing something right. Right?

Maybe. Maybre I lust have really bad luck in thetelecommunications department. Or maybe, in the landof limited options, the one choice of sewice providers isking. In any case, I found myself pressing "1" for "service

and repairs" this week.vhy did I have to call the phone company this week,

oq more specifically, why did I have to call the phonecomapany again? Because they cannot seem, no matterhow hard I try to convince them, to just provide theservice for which I pav dearly.

I'm having another problem with my voice mail. It'snoncxistent. Vhen people call me they don't get myvoice mail, just a busy signal. I called them a few daysago. They promised that it would be fixed in twobusiness days.

k's now going on day three. My dilemma? Should I callthem again, taking the risk that some double service orderwill funher delay and complicate my already malfunctioningservice. Or do I wait around a few more days, supplicant tothe only phone service provider with whom I can attain

shared voice mail.In the last five months, I have had four separate

problems with my voice mail, completely lost the ability to

receive calls on my wireless phone, and had at Ieast one

...maybesome

I'm servingkarmic

The Qwest for competent service

sentence for allthose crank phone

calls I made as a kid

billing eror I have spent literally hours on the phone

waiting on hold, pushing buttons, and explaining, and re'

explaining, since there is no consistency in customer servic€care, my many phone woes.

It is, howeveq (next to the actual lack of seemingcompetentcy), the varied and ridiculous excuses that make me

the craziest.I moved last September and asked that my wireless service

transfer to my new address. My home phone and wirelessphone share voice mail, a service I find helpful and needed. I

was told that'there would be no problem ransferring thissen'ice. and like a narve child, I believed,

In all fairness, I must say that the voice mail might haveworked. I couldn't tell though because anyone who called myphone lrzs told that it ras no longer in service. Instead ofcorrecting the problem, my Qwest customer service

representative (about the founh or fifth one I spoke to) told methat my phone was outdated (it was a year and a half old) andthat I needed to purchase a new phone from QwestMeanwhile, they were still billing me for service.

'i(ihen I got my new phone it worked, but, no big surprisehere, the voice mail didn't,

I really started to think I might be the problem. Perhapsthere's some weird magnetic abnormality that I possess thatcauses my phone to go on the blink. 0r maybe I'm servrngsome karmic sentence for all those crank phone calls I rnade asa kid. But then I started sharing my pain with others. I foundout I am not alonee,

Tales of horrible billing errors, months of waiting forservice, dropped wireless calls came pouring out of my friendsand cow'orkers n'ith litt-le urging. Just among my office coworkers, the testimonials of personal angst with Qwest took upa good portion of an evening.

"My phone calls are dropped constantl,v," said one woman,complaining of her wireless phone, She added, "and mv voicemail, oh my God, sometimes I don't get it for da1's."

"We u'ent for three months without a phone at my newhouse," said Paul.

All this personal hardship via the hands of Qwest hasbrought us in the office all closer togetheq though. \[e'reforming a support group (please turn your phone off beforejoining us, please.)

The worst complaint I've heard came from a woman who,like me, had her home and wireless service with Qwest. Shedecided to cancel her home service and use her cell phoneinstead, Vhen she received her bill she discovered a strangechuge of $75. "Vhat's this?" she asked. She was toid that sinceshe suned her home and wireless senice at the same rime itwas considered a "new" service to iust have a wireless account.Hence, the $75 service charge.

V'ow, $75 to continue a service already functioning? Nowonder their earnings are up 44 percent.

HB 1192 to give Metro State local controlDear Editor,The worst position to be in when you're the third

largest college in the state of Colorado, have a studentpopulation comprised of mainly non-traditional students,are a nationally recognized leader in on-line courses, andare centrally located in the hean of a metropolitan citysteeped in cultural diversity is to be directly governed by aboard of trustees that are also responsible for three othersmall, rural, traditional colleges. However, that is exactlywhere Metropolitan State College of Denver is stuck. VhenMetro was created in 1965, I'm sure the idea ofgrouping itwith Mesa, Adams, and Vestern seemed like a good idea,but as Dylan said, "these times they are a changing."

Administration and faculty have done a good job inmaking sure students don't see the shonage of teachersdue to an unequal distribution of state allocated funds thatsend millions (yes, millionsl) of dollars to the other threecolleges every yeu while Metro can\ retain or attract newprofessors. For example, Adams State receives $5,002 per

full-time student enrollment from the general fund, n'hileMetro State receives only 93,278 per student (based on199&1999 figures). How does the current Board ofTrusteesexplain the reason for the apparent financial discrepanc)'?Vell, aside from refusing to dirulge the equation they use

to diwl' up the funds beyond explaining that it is a complexformula, they maintain that these rural schools cost more to

run than Metro. They also insist that because Metro can run"efficiently" without additional resources, your money isbetter spent at the other instltutions. They stand firm thatnot only is the cost of living equal, but propeny values arethe same in Grand Junction, Gunnison, and Alamosa, asthey are in Denver and, therefore, Metro professors do notneed to be paid more than Mesa, Western, or Adams Stateprofessors. Yes, these people control your education-notto mention your tax dollars.

Thank to the NORED report, a independent studycommissioned by the Colorado Commission on HigherEducation to examine the existing system and recommendpossible options to enhance and improve higher educationin rhe state of Colorado, legislation has been drafted andsponsored by Rep. Nolbert Charez, D-Denveq in the StateHouse of Representatives (House Bill 1192) to give L{etroirs very own governing board. Vhat would the benefits be

to Metro should it receire its own governing board, besidesno longer having to grab our ankles at ererv board oftrustees meeting? \Ihen students, administration, andfaculty have complaints or concerns, they will no longerhave to stand in line behind three other colleges to havetheir voices heard. No longer will the governing board ofI etro be forced to compromise what is in the best interestof N{etro for the sake ofthe other three colleges when theirinterests are in direct conflict.

Gov. Bill Owens and the Republicans in the StateLegislature have been saying for years that schools shouldbe controlled locally, and I agree with them wholeheanedly.This bill gives them the opportunity to show how seriousrhey are on the subject. As with any legislation, the finalamended copy never looks like the original, however, the

legislators must keep their eyes focused on the mainpurpose of the bill which is to give lt{etro its independence.

This bill will be introduced into the House Education

Committee in the coming weeks and I think this is a

fantastic opponunity for students to show the Legislaturewhere they can put their student apathy. The Chair of theEducation Committee is Rep. Nancy Spence, R-Centennial,

and I cannot commend her enough for making every effortto learn students'views on this issue. She has been very

interested in hearing u'hat students think. She may bereached at:

The nomrnatron of former Sen.John Ashcroft to tlre position of attomey general is Eually astroubling. It is the anomey general who enforces the Freedom ofAcczu to Clinic Entrances Act. That is the law ttrar effecivelydetened clinic violence. Vhile in the U,S. Senate, Ashcrofr arguedagainst this very piece of legislation. Are we to believe that thisprson will vigorously enforce a law he worked so hard to block?

ltre issuance of the executive order that re-imposes the glohal"gag" rule must serve as a call to action for those of us who care aboutreprcductive righa.

rVe must remain vigilant. Tm often we feel that we cannotmake a difference, but must not give up. It is importaff that wheneleaed offrcials do not vote for choice that they hear from prorhoicepeople in our sate who do not agree.

Gag rule undercuts rights

Special Guest Commentary fi1*Ttrj#5p;x;:#insisted that the funds be held until kb. 15, gambling ttrat if Bushwere elected, he would re-impose the restriction before the fundswere relzued.

The global 'gag" rule bars international family planningorganiztions from seeking U.S. funds unles they declue tlrey willnot use their own funds to provide abonions or advocate for abonionlaws.

Our foes argue tha all thE want is to make certain ttut noneofour money is paying for abonions. They fail to mention that in thepast it has meant women may not wen be old dut abonion is a legaloption. They certainly never mention *ut it is contraception rhat isbeing stopped, not abonions. The very real consquence of thisaction is that there will be more abonions because fewer women willhave access to birth control.

The pohcy is simply not acceptable for those of us n{ro want

As NAXAL and others gathered to celebrare the 28thanniversary of Roe v. Wade, the U.S. Supreme Coun decision thatmade abonion safe and legal, our new President was reimpming theglobal "Erg" rule on international family planning programs.

lntemational family planning funds were appropriared thispast fall without the $obal "gag" rule, but antithoice lawmakers

families to be able to prevent unintended pregnancies. We believethat making contraception more accessible is what stops abonions,not denying people information and threatening to stop theirreproductive health care services,

Loretta Young-Gautier, the gallery's associate director, agrees,"lt's very impo(ant to

document cultures that arevanishing," Gautier said."(Borges is) the modern-day Edward S. Curtis."

Borges began hisphotography with blackand white photosdocumenting rhe birth ofhis son. He took a fewphotography classes, rolearn how to develop thepictures. With somehesitation, he made thedecision to move from thefinanciallv secure field ofdentistry .. he was an

In 1998, he joined Amnesty Internarional topresent Enduing Spirit, an exhibit and bookcelebrating the 50th anniversary of the signing ofthe Universal Declaration of Human Righrs.

Borges discovered throughout his travelsacross the world, he kept running into the spiritualside of the tribes.ln Spirit ofplace the arrist spentmore than a month capturing images from Siberia,Mongolia, the Philippines and Ecuador

The spirituality was so heavily dominant as afixed structure rvithin the cultures, it couldn't be ignored.Having abandoned the Mormon religion at age 16, he beganto feel a connection rvith the Anirnist way oflife.

Rumor had it he used the collectedpennio from Good Stuff to buy a IJarleyDavidson.

"Some of the money for my scmter camefrom the pennies, but nu all of it. I used tothank people for contributing to the Hadeyfund, mai,k thafs how it got suned," uidDenna Hogland as he shufled around n thelirtle, white hut ner to Cricket Caroll, Caroll ishis girlftiend and the owner of the busines,Cood Stuff Together they sell food, drinks andsnach at 10th and Cunis beween the ArsBuilding, the library and Gntral Clasroom.

Metro student Luella tortll hadn t heardthe rumor altlrough she's been a Good Stuffcustomer for a couple ofyears,

"l come for cups of coffee, sandwichaand hotdogs. [Hogland] alwap has a smile fory'ou and if they're out of cream or sugar orsomething, they'll say it's on the hour," shesaid, as Hogland asked another customer ifshe was sulrng busy or just loafing around.

The ownen sold the businas to Caroll in19t99 after eight yean of working for them.

''Ihey didn t think I could do it at first. Ilove people drc tell me I cant," she said asshe bum@ into Hogland on her way to get ahotdog for one of the fl$tomers lining upduring the lunch rush.

"l'm thankful for the chance thE gaueme, selling me the businas. I don t think theykrow how much I appreciate it," stre said. -

Ho$and used to rvork as a campusgrouodskeeper and wouh stop at Good Stufto buy a burito and soda. One day he oferedCaroll help with the trash. He said she put upa fight and offered to at least buv him a drinkfor helping, but he refused and kept comingaround for ft)od and to help her with the trash.

"Vbll, before pu knerv it, when I wouldcome around she would be frlling out of thehut to come ta.lk to me. the rest is history" heuid lmking over to Caroll wittr a big smile asshe looked bac{< and nodded in ageement.

She rents tle space from the AurariaHigher Education Gnter and - since it'sgolernment property - she has to submit andwin brds to run Good Stuffpaying 18 percentof food sales or $700 per monrh- rvhichever isgreater.

she could place in the top three at nationals," Kennedy said."Ve're really shooting for top five. Thafs the realistic goal.

Lewton tends to agree with her coach."Conference, probably in the top three," ltwton said.

"Nationals, top five."It's that agreeing spirit, that single minded, goal oriented

attitude that Lewton and Kennedy share which makes theirrelationship both in and out of the pool a special one.

"l knew I'd have a much better senior year if Brian cameback to coach," kwton said, referring to the one-year breakKennedy took from the pool during her junior season. "He's

been a great friend. Ve're at the pool for three hours a day. I'd

hope that anyone who spends that much time with someoneelse would be impacted in a positive way both in performance

as well as in life."Kennedy shares Lewton's sentiments."lt's been a pleasure coaching these kids," Kennedy said.

"lt's really rewarding to know I've been able to help, not just

with their diving, but with their lives. I think I've helped themas people, you know?"

That help has played a major role in Lewton's vault to thetop of the Division II dMng ranks. In fact, Lewon shared what

she thought was the key to being successful at the collegiatelevel of diving.

"lt's all about motivation," Lewton said, "You needmotivation from your team and from pur coach. Brian's a Sreatmotivator. Somedmes, though, you just have to be consistentand motivate yoursell"

kwton admitted that it wasn't always easy moti%tingherself to make it to practice, though. She recalled those colddays when the last thing she wanted to do was get out of bed inthe morning and dive into a pool full of cold $ater. But it's

sacrifices like these that have made Cari whal she is today: a top'rank athlete.

Still, with as much attention as she as drawn of late, kwtonhas not let any of it go to her head, In fact, when asked abouther feelings on the record setting dive in December, kwtoncouldn't even remember what it was. Scores aren't really what'simportant to her anyway.

"!flhen I'm diving, more than competing against the otherdivers in the field, I'm competing against mpelf," Lewton said."When I'm preparing myself for a competition , I place myself inthat nationals situadon. I play it in my head. The announcingof my dive, the degree of difficulry I run through all of it."

kwton has been diving since her sophomore year in high

"3-meter is iust more fun to watch,' hwton said. "lCs a lotharder, too. There's a longer fall and there's more to do."

Regardless of which board she's leaping from, Irwton isconfident that she can compete with the best. Her scores reflecther skill, and her anitude towuds the spoft definitely suSSeststhe maturation of a young athlete. She's respected by her pers,touted by her coach and revered by diving fans throughoutDivision II competition. And iust think, she used to be afraid oflanding headfint.

From lhe 9ym lo fhe swimming PoolEric }lcConneltttc Ltegcnco

She was a gymnast at the age of three. All her life, she'dbeen nained to land on her feet.

But, a lot of handsprings and a few back flips later, thingshave changed.iust a litde bit. These days, when Metro seniordiver Cari Lewton finds herself executing even the most difiicultof divc, it's not her record-setting scores that still surprise her.

"l was scared to jump of a 3-meter board when I started,"Lewton said. "Vhen I Iirst went into diving it was hard for me.That whole head first thing iust wasn't natural. For a while I wasbasically doing gymnastics on a board, landing feet first."

There were no signs of fear when Lewton set a pool recordar Colorado College in early December. Her amazing 3-meterdiving score of 443.55 did nothing less than prove that she isone of the premier divers in Division II. Maybe iust slighdy lesamuing is the fact that rhe record she broke with thatperformance was her own, a very respectable 435.20 set twoseasons ago when she was a sophomore.

"She just has a desire to compete," said Mero diving coachBrian Kennedy. "She's very ta.lented. I think it's within hergrasp to be an All-American."

In the meantime, Lewon has a conference meet to preparefoq followed by nationals. Still, with as much physical ability asshe possesses, Lewton insiss that diving takes something morethan lust past gymnastics experience.

"l'd say diving is 70 percent mental," Lewton admined. "Theother 30 percent is actual ability. If you get up on the board andyou're not confident, it shows. Your scores will definitely reflectthat, too."

That confidence may be what was lacking in Lewton's earlycueer as a diver Even with her amazing physiul abiliry Lewtonfinished 20th at nationals as a freshman.* Then, lust one y€arlater, she finished fifth in the same competition.

"That's a pretry good jump," Kennedy said. "Twentieth tofifth in one year! She has the abiliry to compete with anyone.And she's very coachable, very responsive to feedback, Shedoesn't complain. Cari just comes in and does her work. She'sa great kid to have at practice."

It's qualities like these that make Lewton what coachKennedy would call a leader. She's well liked by all, she doeswhaCs asked of her, and she does it with passion. These are thevery things that champions are made of.

"Cari's at a point where, if she puts together a good meet,

"Now, he is setding into a roh and being aleading scorer and it doesn't matter that he s 18 or

Vhile we look uponcollege players today asbeing y'oung men because oftheir size, thev are rea.lly stillboys in matunw and thafshow Dunlap views the 19-
