From the first day through to the end, they behaved like true miners,” Saguillo said after finishing his shift at the Las Cuevas mine, where he and colleagues spent 28 days at a depth of 1,650 feet. In China, the rescue was promi- nently displayed on virtually all the major Chinese news Web sites. State television ran a segment on its evening broadcast, while the official news agency Xinhua carried an editorial praising the rescue: “For more than two months, the miners, families, citizens and the government all have created a miracle of life. The rescue reflects the shining moment of human nature.” China’s mining industry is considered by far the world’s deadli- est, with more than 2,600 coal miners killed last year in blasts Poets speak at Honors Convocation and other accidents. Those figures reflect a decrease from previous years as the government moved to improve safety by shutting down many illegal mines. The rescue was big news in South Korea, Japan, Germany, France and Poland, a coal mining country that has also suffered many tragic mining accidents. Clifford Aron, an American businessman who lives in Poland, said he was deeply moved by the heroism of the miners and the quality of Chile’s leaders. “The obvious contrast is with America,” said Aron, a 52-year- old Brooklyn native. “With Hurricane Katrina, the Bush administration was completely in- competent and out to lunch on the human tragedy. With the BP oil spill, the Obama approach was to punt over responsibility to BP. The Chileans have shown us what leadership and crisis management is all about. Lives were at stake and the whole machinery of government snapped into action.” He said the miners showed stun- ning resilience.

THE WEEKLY TOP TEN BY ANDY PAUL The Daily Mississippian reasons you’ll be OK with homosexuals in the military

“Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” was a Stupid Name 1 On Tuesday, a federal judge barred the U.S. military from enforcing the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy which has been in place for 17 years. Let’s be honest here, though, the judge didn’t get rid of this controversial bill because of its discriminatory policy — they did it because the name sucked. Every movement in America needs a good title, folks. Just look at the Tea Party, PETA and Scientology (it sounds like a real, sensible thing, but it’s not!). “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” sounds like a drinking game you play during a foam party at the Levee. I don’t know for sure, though, because I don’t get invited to such things. That One Person You Know is Gay, Trust Me 2National Coming Out Day was on Monday, but for some reason, a few at Ole Miss chose not to celebrate accordingly. Not surprising, since there’s a shiny new mascot to pick — I feel like we’re all in a wondrous mascot store lately, a wondrous, secondhand, Goodwill mascot store. Anyway, some people are still in the closet around here, and given the statistics you probably know at least one of them. Sorry, it’s just the truth. You’re alright with them now, so I sort of doubt it should change all that much if they were to come out. Blah Blah More Fashionable Blah I3 could go into that standard joke about how the gay and lesbian community would make the army look better, but I feel that’s been done about as much as an article justifying homosexuals in the military. Hey, don’t give me that look. You try doing this every week and see how you fare. And anyway, it’s a Thursday at Ole Miss, how good are you really looking after your midterms when compared to a man or woman in uniform? Ian McKellan is Gay 4Let that one sink in. I’ll give you a minute to do the Sudoku and get back to me. Done? Good. Yep, Gandalf is gay, and are you honestly going to tell Gandalf what he can and cannot do? I didn’t think so. Do ‘Em a Favor, Geez OK,5 so you aren’t alright with the whole “gay marriage” thing. You are Totes McGotes entitled to your opinion, and hey, given the current state of affairs, it seems like you are sort of winning that battle, legal-wise. But let’s be honest, if you don’t want gays in the military, you sort of just have it out for them. Look, you may not like them, but you got to hand it to ‘em: They know this, and still want to protect your pretty little head. I Don’t See You in Iraq Right Now That’s6 right, buddy. I know you aren’t defending your nation overseas because I can see you. Look to your left, I’m that guy cowering in the corner not defending America, either. If a gay guy wants to volunteer to get shot at abroad, more power to him. They’re way manlier than I’ll ever be. The World’s Going to End Soon, Anyway Look7 at the signs around you. The environment is going haywire, the economy is in the pits and Avatar made millions of extra dollars last month for eight extra minutes of clumsy, cliché (but so 3-D!) dialogue. I’m sure there’s at least one Bible verse I can distort to suit this theory, too. It’s time to probably kiss all this goodbye. With this lovely, eighth-grade goth kid mentality in mind, you might as well just go ahead and let them in the recruitment center.

You Just Don’t Care, Really Think8 about it for a second. Which is more important to you: the rights of gays in the military or how you can best plan your next “Save Colonel Reb” demonstration before Southern pride and tradition is destroyed forever and we completely forget that history ever happened?

And Hey, It’s In Your Best Interest Not to Care 9Speaking of forgetting, since Colonel Reb was removed, history seems to be fading from my memory. It’s just like everyone predicted in the Grove! With our beloved mascot gone, who is going to remember that the South got beat in the Civil War? Hard. I’m telling you, ignorance is bliss. Just keep saying that Colonel Reb is a generous old man who let poor minorities work the large amount of land he obtained morally, and it’s practically the truth! It’s, You Know, 2010 10Alright, so I’ve given nine other reasons why gays and lesbians in the military are okay. The point is, it’s the twenty-ﬁ rst century, my scaredy-cat friends, and it’s time to, you know, grow up. And if you can’t, well, they’re the ones with the guns and military training.
