- Irish slip to No. 3; Panthers continue to climb (By Eric Chanowich and Eric Sendelbach )
Unbeaten teams fell faster than George Bush's public approval ratings, serving up the most exciting weekend yet this season. Of course, it was exciting for everyone except Notre Dame, Virginia Tech, Georgia or North Carolina State who all tumbled from the ranks of the unbeaten.

The air was brisk and spirits were high as Breen-Philips and Walsh went head to head in Sunday's first round women's interhall playoff action.

Inside
- Wellstone remembered (Meghanne Downes Assistant News Editor)
In the divided Senate, senators argue their positions and make deals. At the end of the day the most stubborn are victorious. A plane crash brought agreement. On Oct. 25, friends and enemies, Democrats and Republicans, halted campaigning and offered their condolences for a Senator from Minnesota and his family.
Viewpoint
- Outsider's perspective yields a new appreciation for Notre Dame (Joe Lordi senior)
Sometimes it takes another perspective to help you see outside your immediate condition. And sometimes that alternative perspective can provide with you with an appreciation that you should have had the entire time. That is exactly what happened to me this past weekend when two of my friends from back home came to visit Notre Dame.
- No shame in loss to Boston College (Jackie Ramirez freshman)
As a Notre Dame student, I am a huge fan and proud supporter of athletics. I found the caption to the photo depicting Ryan Grant under Brian Kronk's "From Green to Blue" article yesterday to be troublesome. The phrase "hangs his head in shame" had me outraged from the time I saw it. I don't think he's hanging his head in shame at all.
- U.S. interests should not be subordinate to U.N.'s (Padraic H. McDermott junior)
The ongoing debate over confronting Iraq on its repeated violations of United Nations resolutions is being conducted dishonestly by European champions of "multilateralism." The nations of Europe and their sycophants around the world accuse the United States of taking a "unilateral stance," of abandoning multilateral decision-making and seeking to impose its will on the world. What these critics fail to acknowledge is that the United States is doing what nation-states have always been expected to do: pursue their own policies, in their own self-interest.

Scene
- Amos hits the mark (By DAVID HARTWIG Scene Music Critic)
Famous or infamous? The verdict is still out, but Tori Amos definitely has a thing for concept albums. The latest in a 14-year career, Scarlet's Walk, finally hits a mark that she definitely has fallen short of on recent records. This album follows the path of a female heroine, Scarlet, on a journey through every state in the U.S., focusing on the histories from pre-1492 through the European conquest of this country.
- Pavement gets rediscovered (By DANIEL MCSWAIN Scene Music Critic)
Unrealized and sometimes violently explosive talent has a habit of striking when least expected. Nineteen ninety-two can't really be remembered as the high point of a lot of things. Most will remember nothing more than the halcyon days of middle school, the Gulf War, Generation X and puberty. It was during this time that the band Pavement released Slanted & Enchanted. It was good. People liked it. People also liked Crystal Pepsi.
- Santana doesn't live up to legene (By EMILY TUMBRINK Scene Music Critic)
With all due respect to Carlos Santana, one of the few guitar players who deserves legendary status, Shaman, his latest release, possesses very little to be admired. Pairing with Arista's hit-making producer Clive Davis, Santana has successfully created a record that sounds exactly like every other pop record on the market.
- Album tries to replicate festival (By JULIE BENDER Assistant Scene Editor)
The month was June. The place, Tennessee. There were 70,000 people who traveled from all over the country, an excruciatingly hot sun and no showers. Like recent Woodstock concerts, such an event would seem a breeding ground for riots and violence. This peaceful gathering defied all, however. The love of pure music soothed everything over.
