Can’t read the sign? Wondering whose people’s deaths the pink flag remembers? A close-up after the jump.

So the cherry blossoms are in bloom, along with the magnolias and some other flowering trees of whose name I have no knowledge. Another picture after the jump!
An Important Cause to Support for Gays and Their Allies
April 22nd, 2009 by D. Evan MulvihillSo, this might just get national attention and I can still pre-empt the Daily Sun, so here’s something my friend Chris Donohoe send to me. Chris is a really nice guy, and — sorry dude — we’ve pretty much known he was gay since freshman year. In any case, he is a gay man of faith and that’s something that the religious group he was involved with couldn’t learn to tolerate:
Tomorrow (Thursday, April 23) an article will run in the Cornell Daily Sun. It will showcase the following information.
At the beginning of this academic year I (Chris Donohoe) was asked to step down from my leadership position with a religious organization (Chi Alpha Christian Fellowship) on campus after coming out of the closet. Although the university is taking aggressive action to address this injustice, it is time for the LGBT community and its allies to unite.
VideOkay: Student Trustee Mash-Up
April 15th, 2009 by D. Evan MulvihillGreetings, fellow Cornellian! I come to you with the news that you too have the power to vote for the undergraduate student-elected trustee, one among 64 powerful persons who control Cornell’s destiny. Mostly by consulting with Miss Cleo. The Cornell Daily Sun went down and did the normal journalistic thing of taking video at a debate sponsored by none other than themselves, but I decided to make a mash-up video of the budding politicians’ uncannily uniform rhetoric. It would’ve been longer and better, but my video editing program was being a total [expletive for female genitalia] and lost my work not once, not twice, but thrice. Voting for the Student-elected Trustee ends tomorrow at 8am, but you can enjoy this little guy anytime:

Snap of the Day: In Which the Arts Quad Becometh Art
April 11th, 2009 by D. Evan Mulvihill
ART QUAD.
WTF? Oh, it’s art! Land art, to be precise. I asked a guy who was unloading the bagfuls of hay stuff into big heaps, and he said that it was:
Follow me on Twitter!
April 10th, 2009 by D. Evan MulvihillHey y’all! I’m allll up in the Twittertubes right now (username: CornellWatch), tweeting up a STORM. Sort of. My first tweet was an intro, and my second was about how the inner workings of our HTML are unraveling before our very eyes — help? Click here and follow me!
Plugs for Stuff I’m Doing
April 9th, 2009 by D. Evan MulvihillOn this lovely Thursday night (tonight, that is) at 8pm, I’m bringing the folks at IVY — that Ithaca College-produced show that Cornellians love to hate — to Willard Straight Hall’s Memorial Room for a sneak preview of their second season, which debuts April 14th. Come meet the people who pretend to be people who are supposed to represent you, Cornellian, in some approximate fashion. Yeah.
Another thing I’m working on is called Sneuth, which stands for snoop and sleuth (and maybe snark) all put into one clunky yet surprisingly cool-sounding neologism. Our first project is Alternatournell, an alternate look at Cornell in video form as above. Check it out, and tell prospective freshman about it PLEASE. The first installment will be out Monday. Even if you don’t like the video content (it’s jerky at times :/ ), Get Low is involved. TO THE WINDOWWW. TO THE WALLLL.
