Imagine it: a candidate with the same initials and last name as the president of the United States, and a candidate whose initials are SMS. But, once the votes were in and the ballots counted, the final tally on Monday's election didn't even seem interesting. Candidate Jeff Carter, in something of an upset, spoiled current SGA President Mark Seaman's re-election bid with a 774-to-429 rout. Carter's share of the 1,203 votes cast for president amounted to approximately 64 percent of the vote. (For more election results, see story below.)

In Italia e in Europa c'è un po' di confusione sul genere musicale che suonate. Nei negozi specializzati, i vostri dischi sono spesso collocati nel rock o il Southern o addirittura il Country Rock. So perfettamente che alle band non piace etichettare la propria musica, quindi mi pedonerai se ti pongo questa domanda: la vosta musica è ottima ma in che genere rientra? Michael : Ciao Gianluca. La nostra musica ha sempre avuto molte influenze diverse, a causa del fatto che abbiamo avuto così tanti compositori, tutti diversi tra loro.
