Football picks and dynasty disasters

Elias Hajjar and Elias Hajjar • August 27, 2002

The National Football League has had many dynasties throughout the course of its existence, starting with the Green Bay Packers of the 60s and ending with the Dallas Cowboys of the 90s. But that was the old NFL. Will the "new" NFL ever see another dynasty like the Pittsburgh Steelers of the 70s or the San Francisco 49ers of the 80s again? No way.

COLUMBUS, Ohio _ On Tuesday, Ohio State seemed like a team in disarray. On Saturday, it looked like a juggernaut. After a tumultuous week filled with suspensions, an arrest and a starter quitting the team, the 12th-ranked Buckeyes performed almost flawlessly in their season opener in the Pigskin Classic.

Greek Sneak Peek

Hushed conversations filled the air, while dozens of young women filled the seats of the University Center's second floor lobby. The crowd waited expectantly as the doors of the Ballroom opened for the official kick-off event of sorority recruitment - the Greek Sneak Peek Party.

‘One-Hour Photo’

Jami Bernard , New York Daily News and Jami Bernard , New York Daily News • August 27, 2002

Robin Williams continues the reconstruction of Robin Williams in "One Hour Photo," playing a lonely stalker who looks as washed-out as some of the photos he develops. Of his recent against-type roles, including those in "Death to Smoochy" and "Insomnia," Williams' performance in this smart, arty little indie is by far the creepiest.

A campus mourns

May 7, 2002

Sept. 19, 2001 Issue Thousands filled Northern Kentucky University's plaza to attend a ceremony the day after the tragedy of 9-11. The crowd was orderly and eerily silent as administrators spoke, students sangs and speakers declared their resolve to remain united.

University partnerships diverse, wide-reaching

Jordan Kellogg • May 2, 2002

While students attend class, study and work, university officials are building links, or partnerships, with businesses and other organizations that they hope will enhance educational opportunities here. Some partnerships that NKU is involved in are more visible than others.

Pub crawl ads don’t belong in student papers

May 2, 2002

Dear Editor, It was disconcerting to turn the pages of The Northerner on April 24 to find that our student newspaper accepts advertisement monies to promote a pub crawl. For those of you who do not know what a pub crawl is, just take the name apart, and it speaks for itself.
