Ine East Carolina University Greenville, N C 10 pases School's in for additional 9 days Current calendar to go from 141 to 150 days by '97 Amy L Royster Assistant News Editor ECU's academic calendar faces a nine day increase after the UNC system's Board of Governors endorsed a recom- mendation that all 16 universities in the system lengthen their academic calendar to at least 150 days. The recommendation made by UNC system President C. D. Spangler was approved by the Board of Governors last Friday. The mandate forces universities to add days until the fall and spring se- mesters total 150 academic days. Univer- sities must comply by the fall semester 1997. According to Vice Chancellor of Academic Affairs Dr. Richard Ringeisen. the faculty senate which controls the calendar will convene early in the fall semester to discuss the most prudent way to add the days. ECU currently operates on a calendar of 141 days. Before the mandate, the calendar committee had already planned for 143 days for the 1997-1998 school year. Ringeisen said he believes this will alle- viate a little of the burden of adding days. "The faculty senate forms the cal- endar committee Ringeisen said. "There is a student seat on the committee and we have asked Angie Nix (SGA president) to help us find a student for the commit- tee Nix said Chancellor Richard Eakin assured her that the university would seek broadly based input from students. The student on the committee will be either Nix or someone appointed by Nix. "It is important to me that a stu- dent who will stay on top of this get in- volved Nix said. "1 want outof-state stu- dents to know that we will try not to shorten their vacations home too much Ringeisen said in the past there have been some problems getting a student to attend committee meetings, but given the task at hand, he feels there will be no problem obtaining student input University of North Carolina Asso- ciation of Student Governments (UNCASG) President John Dervin said that since 1989. members of the legisla- ture have looked at lengthening the aca- demic calendar. Dervin said that this put pressure on Spangler to recommend the increase. "My concern is that the recommen- dation is being done over the summer when students can not get involved Dervin said. "It is going to have a huge affect on the schools. Where you are prob- ably going to lose is vacation days. I am concerned that this is happening very quickly Ringeisen said that until the faculty senate's calendar committee meets there is no set plan of action. "We have no predetermined way to add the days Ringeisen said. "There is little room to sneculate as to where the days will come from because there are only a few options Ringeisen said although there has been no formal discussion concerning the mandate yet, he and Eakin have dis- cussed potential concerns such as the cost of a longer academic year. Ringeisen said students on campus for nine more days will need longer meal plans and extended use of the residence halls. " Most of us think there will be added cost at lengthening the school year Ringeisen said. "We will have to meet the cost and figure out how to do that" Library to open before August This newly constructed space the North Carolina Collection.

University Attorney Ben Irons said that after receiving news of the alleged abuses, the university au- ditor. Brenda R. Mills, investigated. 'The auditor) makes sure that our financial transactions are handled appropriately Irons said. But in monitoring those activities. it's often necessary to monitor work-related activities, which relate to those financial activities SGA President Angie Nix said the auditor's findings of the tran- sit system were finalized at the end of June. However, these findings were not presented in last Thursday's Board of Trustees meeting. Jordan Whichard, a member of the Board of Trustees, said the Board did not receive a full report on the transit issue. As a result of recent develop- ments, the university plans to take the management of the transit sys- tem out of the hands of the students and place a full-time staff member in charge of the transit system. According to Dr. Al Matthews, vice chancellor for student life, the transit system began their search for a full time staff member to oversee operations before the investigation began. The misuse of university re- sources and student fees has been reported to the State Bureau of In- vestigation. "Anytime that state funds are misused, it has to be reported Irons said. So far, the SBI has not gotten involved, and the investigation and any disciplinary actions resulting from it have remained within the university. "Restitution is being required. That matter has been handled in ac- cordance with the student disciplin- ary process Irons said. Irons confirmed that two of the students who held management po- sitions last year have siqpe gradu- ated. The interim student manager now holding the transit manage- ment position will manage the sys- tem until a staff member is ap- pointed in the fall. Auditor's Findings & Recommendations Findings Use of transit vehicles for unauthorized personal trips Little supervision offered to daily operations Recommendations Enforcing law (GS. 14-27) that prohibits personal use of state issued property Full-time staff person to advise daily operations Student fees used to purchase alcohol for social functions Enforcing guidelines for use of student fees Current Manager inappropriately charged $470.44 to transit budget Manager should pay that amount in restitution The above are only highlights.

During Freshman Orientation, the investigation of local nightclubs, which were believed to be targeting orientation students, resulted in sev- eral citations. According to Blair Carr, the Greenville Police Department's po- lice attorney, after the GPD received criminal intelligence that some downtown nightclubs were pin- pointing freshman orientation stu- dents as potential patrons, an un- dercover operation was planned for Sunday evening June 23. "The clubs were either advertis- ing or making it be known by word- of-mouth that underage students could enter clubs and be served Carr said. Carr declined to say where the criminal intelligence originated from or who, if anyone, tipped off the po- lice. During the undercover opera- tion, two anonymous underage people purchased alcohol from the Elbo Room located on Cotanche Street. Carr said that after they pur- chased malt alcohol, they took it to a remote corner of the Elbo Room and discarded the beverage. An un- dercover officer observed the sale in order to testify to the transaction. The owner of the Elbo Room, Kirby Bryson, was cited with four violations of aiding and abetting the sale of alcohol to persons under the age of 21 and aiding and abetting the giving away of alcohol to per- sons under 21. The bartenders, Ann Bryant and Karen Combs, were also cited for selling alcohol to a person under the age of 21. Carr said the bartenders were in violation of chap- ter 18 B of the general statutes, which prohibits the sale of alcohol to underage people. Bryson said he could not com- ment on the situation at this time. "My lawyer has advised me not to speak about the citations right nov Bryson said. According to Carr there was beer sitting on a counter which was given to patrons without an em- ployee checking anyone's identifica- tion. Carr said everyone cited was given a court date where they will have the chance to plead. If the cases go to trial and the bartenders are convicted, they could face a . maximum jail sentence of one year � as well as a fine. Carr said the investigation was � not targeted towards the Elbo Room specifically. She also said that the Attic and the Brig were other clubs which were not open that night. "There was no club targeted Carr said.

Stalkers on campus do not go unpunished 1i - l,i. drpsses inaDDroDriate student behav University judicia -system tightens stance on violators "Jacqueline D. Keilum "Staff Writer The relatively new law against stalking was used in a case at N.C. rrState to convict a graduate student iwho had repeatedly harassed three female students. The case at N.C. State, which ended in a misdemeanor conviction on Friday, June 28, was one of the few times the law has been used. ECU does have its own resources available to help anyone who has a problem with a suspected stalker. Many students go to the campus police with reports of being stalked. Others go straight to the dean of student's office, which handles the ju- dicial process on campus. Associate Dean of Students Karen Boyd said that ECU'S judicial system exists to keep troublemakers off campus, without having to resort to outside agencies. She used a worst- case scenario, murder, as an example. "It would take a year for that to go to trial. But we don't want that person on our campus. We have the right to not have that person on our campus Boyd said. The advantage of a college hav- ing its own juuicial system is that it allows quicker measures than those of the outside court system in sus- pending a person from the campus. "The ECU judicial system ad- dresses inappropriate student behav- ior, and it addresses it timely Boyd said. However, the case at State shows that stalkers can be tenacious. The stalker was suspended twice and each time he said he would stop the stalk- ing. When he continued the illegal behavior, he was expelled. Even after the expulsion, he harassed the three students. Boyd said that stalking can oftentimes be hard to prove.

But the storm's destruction may be most painful for the state's farm- ers, where estimated losses from 10 southeastern counties total $154.7 million, state officials said. Bertha's rainfall contributed to the rupture of a hog waste lagoon in Craven County between New Bern and Vanceboro. Officials said 1.8 mil- lion gallons of waste flowed toward the Neuse River from Cecil Rhodes' hog farm late Friday or early Satur- day. Tommy McLamb, a federal agri- cultural specialist, said there was a 25 percent to 85 percent loss on tobacco and 30 percent to 90 percent loss for corn among the affected counties. "Brunswick and Onslow counties are the two worst counties McLamb said. "Craven and Lenoir counties were also hard hit" Bertha caused at least $4 million damage in South Carolina as it brushed past the state, insurance in- dustry officials said. There were no damage estimates from the other states in Bertha's path, from Virginia to New Jersey, but damage was mini- mal compared to North Carolina. Hunt on Monday declared a state of disaster in 15 counties - Beaufort, Brunswick, Carteret, Craven, Duplin, Hyde, Jones, Lenoir, Martin, New Hanover, Onslow, Pamlico, Pender, Pitt and Washington - as a first step in the process of getting federal aid to repair damage. At North Topsail Beach, Onslow County Sheriff Ed Brown said loot- ers have tried to come to the island by boat and state patrols are trying to prevent anyone from coming ashore by water. The National Guard sent 60 military police officers to help protect property after a re- quest by the town administrator. Property own- ers and long-term renters were ex- pected to be al- lowed to return to their homes in North Topsail Beach beginning today. A ban on pri- vate vehicles in the town's north sec- tion meant that property owners would have to take buses. Meanwhile, an unidentified man died Saturday morning at a home just off the island because the power went out to his lung machine, Brown said, raising Bertha's death toll in North Carolina to two and 10 deaths over- all. Hunt promised to rally state de- partments - Transportation, National Guard and Corrections - to provide equipment and labor the residents said they needed for the clean-up. An additional 300 inmates were ordered sent Monday to the hardest hit areas. At a meeting earlier in the day with several mayors at the Emerald Isle Town Hall, Hunt ordered immedi- ate suspension of state burning rules. Hunt also said the state coastal management rules would be eased to allow residents to rebuild docks and piers ripped up by the storm. No fees would be charged, he said. The Ameri- can Red Cross expanded meal service due to extensive power outages in some counties, and said centers in Jacksonville, New Bern and Holly Ridge would be open "Brunswick and Onslow counties are the two worst counties.

At Topsail, motorcycles were de- posited by the surge on the side of the roadway, as were washers and dry- ers in the garage areas of condos. One car was carried across the road and dumped in a ditch. The garage doors of most houses were knocked out by the surge. No specific dollar amounts of damage were available here, said county commissioner Tony Padgett "When the dunes went, it was all over with he said. Residents were allowed on the beach to check their belongings late Sunday. But they were shuttled in school activity buses because the road was undermined and repairs crews needed room to work. In two places along N.C. 1568, the storm surge washed the roadway away from bridges. At Emerald Isle, town administra- tor Pete Allen said damage was ex- pected to be double the initial $24 million estimate. Some homes showed obvious scars, such as missing roofs and blown-out basement walls. But there also was water damage inside many houses, Allen said. Gone for good is the $6 million a day that businesses lost because of evacuations, according to the North Carolina Division of Travel and Tour- ism in Raleigh. The losses were espe- cially high because the storm came during one of the busiest times of the year at the beach.

"Most stalkers are very bright Boyd said. The convicted stalker at N.C. State was a Chinese graduate student enrolled as a doctoral candidate in nuclear engineering.

As well as the addi- tion of group study rooms, faculty study rooms will also increase in number from 22 to 76, and graduate carrels will rise from 40 to 200. "Just having the elementary facili- ties for people to use is a step forward Marks said. With the completion of the addi- tion and the renovations to the origi- nal building nearly underway, the state Department of Transportation is also expected to begin construction of a new library entrance on Aug. 1. The new them. "It's a conference, and they are able to tell their side of the story and have it considered Boyd said. Boyd said that sometimes a for- mal warning to back off was enough, and required no extra measures. But if an individual continues stalking and pleads not guilty to charges brought against him or her, they have the right to a hearing before a student honor board. This board would be composed of five to seven students. There are stu- dents in the attorney general and pub- lic defender positions, and witnesses may be called. The student is given a minimum of 72 hours to prepare, and either the accused or the university can ask for an extension of up to a week if they have a valid reason. Boyd said that often there is a public perception that stalking is not a serious crime. While it is true that no one is hurt by a few phone calls, a stalker can disrupt one's life. "You're never alone. That's what stalking means, Boyd said, and that can be very significant to the victim of a stalker. road access will circle from an enrance on Lawrence Street in front of the li- brary back out onto Cotanche Street Marks said that the changes will be a nice surprise for students return- ing in the fall.

This year students can also look forward to losing nine days of vacation. Nine days, count them, nine days that students can kiss good-bye are coming out of our vacation time start- ing the fall of 1997. There is no point in kicking and screaming because with the Board of Governors meeting last Friday and en- dorsing President Spangler's recommendation to lengthen the academic calendar at all UNC system schools to 150 days, the recommendation has become a mandate. Now, the only question is where are those nine days going to come from? Fall break, when freshman are mak- ing their first trips home to see mom and dad; Christmas break, when students rest up for a new semester, or spring break? These are all vacations that nobody wants to shorten. Any way you look at it, this does not look good. There will be a student seat on the faculty senate's calendar committee which will either be held by SGA President Angie Nix or an appointee of Nix. Let's hope that the student who is included in the committee takes his or her position very seriously. One student may be all the other thousands of us have to make sure everyone else on the faculty senate's committee hears our voices. From a financial standpoint, there are effects from this mandate on our wallets that should not go unmen- tioned. There will be added costs to stretching the school year. Students should have very real concerns about the cost of meal plans and residence halls that will be ef- fected by this mandate. Adding nine days to meal plans and to time in the residence halls is bound to be a costly issue. This could be just another factor in the ever-rising cost of a college education. Students deserve fair representation, especially when we are most directly effected by adding days to the calen- dar. If students make one phone call this year to univer- sity officials to voice their opinions, let it be about the calendar. Students who would like to express concerns are en- couraged to contact our SGA representatives at 3284726. Brandon Waddell Editor-in-Chief Celeste Wilson, Production Manager Randall Rozzell.

That's the bottom line -Bob Dole, Today Show, July 1 Jennifer Hunt Opinion Columnist At a New York deli, in a prime time interview and on other avenues on the campaign trail: There's Bob Dole, asserting that he will bring a new moderation to the Republican Party's stand on abortion. In recent weeks, the candidate announced that there will be no anti-abortion "litmus test" for judicial nominees and prom- ised to consider a running mate who supports abortion rights. In Dole's 35 years in Congress, he voted for almost every restriction on abortion that came before the leg islative body, including a proposal in the '80s to add a constitutional amendment banning abortion. He opposed a bill to protect clinics from anti-abortion blockades. He said he would have signed a bill, vetoed early this year by President Clinton, to ban �i late-term abortion procedure. He cosponsored recent legislation that would sharply reduce funding for in- ternational family planning. Douglas Johnson, director of fed- eral legislation for the National Right to Life Committee, praises Dole's con- sistency. "His National Right to Life Committee voting record is 94 percent over 30 years Johnson said. "That's a very strong record Dole now de- clines to campaign on his record as a hard anti-abortionist as it has irked many right-to-life advocates. Though Bob Dole's votes against abortion have been consistent, he appears uncomfortable when speak- Dole's voting record speaks loudly ing about the issue. Indeed, his most recent campaign announcements, p"0- fessing "a decent regard for those who disagreed" with him, seem less a plea for tolerance than a hope that con- tentious debate can be avoided alto- gether. Dole's rare statements on abor- tion tend to leave the issue's moral complexities unexplored. Over the years, he seems to have followed the abortion policy advice of late Repub- lican Party Chair Lee Atwater: Pick a position, any position, and stick with it. Dole says that he still supports and endorses "a human life amend- ment to the Constitution an amend- ment that would outlaw the vast ma- jority of abortions and could make illegal certain methods of birth con- trol such as the IUD and the contro- versial "morning after" pill. Dole also opposes using tax dollars to pay for abortions-in other words, no Medic- aid money and promises to end fed- eral grants for organizations that "ad- vocate abortion Like George Bush before him, Dole says he would support three ex- ceptions to a constitutional abortion ban- for rape, incest and to save the life of a women in danger. This has rattled the most dedicated anti-abor- tion advocates, who believe that once an exception is made for rape and in- cest other exceptions become easier to accept such as those for fetal de- formity. It is worth noting that the heat Dole is now taking for his excep- tions is greater than the exceptions' real-world impact Only 1 percent of the 1.48 million abortions performed annually are a result of rape or incest or are necessary to save the life of a woman, according to the Alan Guttmacher Institute, a New York re- search organization. Dole's voting record speaks loudly and it is likely that if he is elected president in the fall he will keep his anti-abortion stance. I be- lieve that what a woman chooses to do to her body is her own right and I am firmly pro-choice. I have difficulty siding with a candidate who is strongly pro-life, because I feel that it would risk the right to abortion if he were elected. Abortion should not be a government issue. I do not believe an abortion should ever be used as a form of birth control, and I realize it is abused at times. Ultimately, I feel that if a baby is unwanted and a woman is not capable of taking care of herself for nine months while the baby is growing in- side her or after it is born, then an abortion, along with adoption should be options for her.

Mr. Pawn man knows why I'm there: he's got what I need. The lights were dimmed by Utilities, the pho lcon- nected. Mr. Bill needs Mr. Money and Mr. Pawn is the fat middleman push- ing my broke boat upriver. Most everyone 1 know has ven- tured into a pawn shop since they've been in college and all of them had their justifications. Either the al- mighty financial aid check didn't come through or they blew their wad down- town in some slap-happy bender. Ev- eryone has a reason for going to a pawn shop. Who can blame a univer- sity student? See, when things get jammed and ends aren't meeting, the "instant cash loan" is very enticing. Just putting the words "instant" and "cash" to- gether makes rent seem that much more attainable. The problem is that the relationship between bills and money appears like such a black and white issue. You pay, you stay, but what did you have to do to make the bread, huh? Therein lies the moral and ethical fabric that binds us to survival. It's not the price you named for Mr. Pawn, but the price you pay at home in the dark, looking for old watches.

He starts saying to himself. "I'm on my own now So, with this self-inflicted burden comes the idea that he has to do whatever he can to make it. Unfortunately, this usually means hocking everything he ever owned. The mind starts to obscure the ability to reason when he is hard-up for cash. What once was priceless and held youthful memories, now has a new value in the land of Mr. Pawn man. Your roommate's short on the phone bill because of calls to his gii. friend in Jersey? Maybe you bounced a check at Teeter. Holy psycotropics, Phish is at Walnut Creek! Boom! You find yourself raiding a once-impressive CD collection for Neil Young. Got it! Then it's off to the pawn shop where they always love your business. It's a real simple operation. You bring your stuff to them, they give you half what it's worth and then sell it for double or triple. Meanwhile, the debt's not getting any lighter, but hey, the man says everybody's happy. He got his. which is all of yours, and you are left with two piles of nothing but good old squat that's collecting inter- est Why do it? A Pawn shop dealer is nothing more than a watered down shylock. a racketeer. He trades short- term relief for all your dreams and memories. Going into a pit like that already means that you're in the hole: why keep on digging? Do your soul a favor and ban pawn shops. It's a capi- talist business based on the poor's in- ability to shake a debt Fact is, bills are like skin, they're not going any- where struggle harder. I've pretty much pawned off the first 22 years of my life to take care of petty things. To me, the man is like a crack dealer, always making it so easy to want what you think you need to get. Maybe if 1 had just been a little smarter up until now I would have seen my other options. The alternative is called being frugal. Most every stu- dent can apply and get financial aid. Be wise with that cash. Pinch every- where you can so you don't have to go to the Man for a hand. The whole prob- lem with being a capitalist nation is that most of us are giving up the capi- tal. The pawn-man just likes to watch us sell it all away. His wallet just keeps getting fatter and we keep getting screwed harder. So next time you think about hocking your dead grandfather's purple heart realize that street price never outreaches sentimental value. Letters to the Editor Greeks support proposa "Newspapers are the most high-tech product on the market � scannable, portable and reasonable in price To the Editor: On May 11,1996. a fire killed five innocent students at the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity house at UNC-Chapel Hill. This tragic accident could have been prevented. Most fraternity and sorority houses are old houses and do not have current safety devices (i.e. sprinklers). On some college cam- puses, namely East Carolina Univer- sity and UNC-Chapel Hill, the Creek houses are not on university property and will not receive assistance for sprinklers from the Board of Gover- nors. The young men and women in these organizations have realized the importance of safety in our chapter houses. To protect our members, we wish to install sprinkler systems throughout our houses. As much as we would like to do this, and soon will be forced to do this, our chapters cannot afford to undertake this project. Senator Beverly Purdue has in- troduced a special provision to the North Carolina Senate budget that would establish a one million dollar revolving loan account for fraternities and sororities to install sprinkler sys- tems in their houses. This would be a ten-year loan, not a donation or grant. These sprinkler systems can save lives. If the Phi Gamma Delta house had sprinklers, the five children of this state that were killed would have most probably lived. Fraternities and sororities raise billions of dollars and volunteer mil- lions of hours every year for innumer- able charities across the nation and the state of North Carolina. These organizations make a difference and are worthy of the support of our citi- zens and state legislators. The time for sprinklers is now, the way is Senator Purdue's provision. 1 desperately urge the N.C. General Assembly to support this worthy cause.

We'd order the Sea Mon- key Kit through the ads in our comic books and follow the in- structions with scientific preci- sion. But every new packet of powdered Sea Monkey eggs we bought remained inert in the bottom of our aquariums. And that's too bad, because the little buggers looked so cute in the ads. There was Dad with his briefcase and pipe, Mom in her apron, little Billy with his catcher's mitt, and sister Sue, complete with freckles and pig- tails. They were all pink and mostly naked, a wholesome nud- ist nuclear family in miniature. You could almost imagine them living next door, if it weren't for the fins and tiny webbed hands. Plus, the ads told us, you could make them do tricks. In their confining aquarium prison, the Sea Monkeys would turn loops, swim in circles, and per- form amazing feats of underwa- ter acrobatics, all at your com- mand Watch the fun as Mom and little Billy cower in abject fear and compulsively follow the orders of their finless, gro- tesquely large human master!

That was Blackfoot Sunday night at the Attic. Technical glitches, personal errors and a less than stellar crowd allowed the band to show their true colors as they still managed to turn out an excellent show. The night opened with the Corey Stevens Band. Now I am by no means a huge fan of the blues, but this trio got on stage and played the best live blues I've ever heard. After a couple of rousing instrumentals and straight-forward blues songs, I was loving every minute. But around 9 p.m. the blues train left the station to make room for Blackfoot and after about half an hour, the lights went down and the sounds of a train pulling out of station shook the Attic. Remembering last year's show I -as expecting a surge of people and a pretty rough crowd, so I was very surprised to look around and see the Attic nowhere near its capacity.

Something called Lollapalooza or some crazy thing Photo courtesy Lollapalooza CD Reviews R.L Burnside A Ass Pocket of Whiskey Jay Myers Assistant Lifestyle Editor R.L. Burnside is a veteran blues artist fr"n the hill country of north- ern Mississippi. So what's he doing on the Matador label, a record com- pany known mostly for their punk and indie bands? And why is the album sporting a cover by Derek Hess, an artist whose most significant claim to fame is creating unique poster art for bands such as The Jesus Lizard and Boss Hog? The reason behind this seemingly opposed pairing is Jon Spencer, the leader of The Jon Spencer Blues Ex- plosion and erstwhile member of Boss Hog (with his wife Cristina Martinez). On The Blues Explosion's last tour, Spencer decided to take along one of his favorite, yet underrated, perform- ers as an opening act That person was R.L. Burnside and over the months that they toured together a friendship developed, much like the Rolling Stones (whom Spen- cer much admires) and their relation- ship with Muddy Waters. Spencer and Burnside respected each other enough that they decided to record an album together, and the result is the blazing .4 Ass Pocket of Whiskey. Spencer and Burnside work ex- ceptionally well together, especially considering the fact that their musi- cal styles at first seem so different. Spencer evolved out of the DC and New York punk scenes and first came to prominence with the irreverent outfit. Pussy Galore. It is only relatively recently that Spencer has taken up a keen interest in the blues and combined its ele- ments into hisimusic. Even now, most of The Blues Explosion's and Boss Hog's sound is derived from punk in- fluences rather than the blues. Buwiside, on the other hand, works frim a traditional style of blues found almost exclusively in the hills of northern Mississippi. Definitely dif- ferent from the sound found in the Mississippi Delta, Burnside's blues were passed down to him from the '50s blues legend Fred McDowell. Although his normal raw, stripped-down, churning sound has been augmented and punched up by The Blues Explosion on Ass Pocket, Burnside is definitely still in charge of the music. Except for a few inci- dental noises, like making a cawing sound of a crow and asking for "40 nickeis for a bag of potato chips Spencer himself keeps his mouth shut and lets Burnside take full control of his band.

Colonel Nafffan Sterling (Denzel Washington), to 'determine if Captain Karen Walden (Me'i Ryan) deserves the posthumous honor of being the first women ever in tfe. history to receive the medal of honor for her performance in combat.

What starts off as a routine assignment for Did Walden act courageously as a leader and save the lives of several soldiers, or did she give under pressure and bring about her own death? the film is an achievement in itself when considering her co-star, and the film's main protagonist, is Denzel Washington. Washington fleshes out a man who suffers not only from the dirty politics of a military he's dedi- cated his life to, but also the haunt- ing memory of a fatal mistake he made himself in the Gulf War. Washington's physical being almost seems to be crumbling as his character increas- ingly grows distant from his family and slowly drinks his ghosts away. Courage Under Fire is a perfect role for Washington, who is slowly tearing away at the racial barrier in- herent within mainstream Hollywood films.

His flashback method of recounting each person's take on the same story has been done before, most notably in Akira Kurosawa's 1951 master- piece, Rashomon. Still, he and film editor Steven Rosenblum effectively translate Patrick Sheane Duncan's script into a coherent, well-paced de- tective piece that only periodically slows down. Z w i c k mainly slips when he at- tempts to hu- manize the char- acter of Walden. While making Captain Walden a human being as well as a sol- dier is impor- tant, Zwiek's de- cision to do so by splicing in clips of Meg Ryan with her daughter proves to be more ama- teurish than impressive. Zwick should have left the humanizing of Walden's character to Meg Ryan, who turns in a lasting performance despite limited screen time. As Walden, Ryan has the difficult task of portraying several characters, depending on who's telling the story. When one soldier narrates how Walden was a leader with steel guts, Ryan sheds her cute persona and de- livers a warrior who has been trained to fight. When another soldier tells an alternate version, Ryan transforms Walden into a scared child who is not ready for the realities of war. Break- ing her stereotype of the typical, femi- nine love interest Ryan professionally conveys the extremities of Captain Walden without resorting to over-the- top antics. .

Summer cinema is not about Oscar-worthy films, which is probably why Courage L 'nder Fire ranks as this summer's most mature major release. The summer of '96 has given us sev- eral good films, but nothing really groundbreaking. While Courage Un- der Fire is not groundbreaking, it is still solid entertainment, and one of the few thought-provoking movies out among the summer blockbusters.

It seems there was a little problem with the lead guitarist's equipment and he spent most of the first few songs be- hind the amps trying to remedy the situation. "I don't care Medlocke re- marked, much to the pleasure of the crowd. "We'll stay and play all night until the thing works And with that they played on through songs such as "Road Fever" and "Wishing Well Soon "the thing" was fixed, and before the guitarist could take a breath of relief, he was in the spot- light The rest of the band took a rest as Blackfoot's guitarist often months did an amazing Eddie-Van-Halenesque solo. Keeping his guitar strap over one shoulder like a carry-on bag, he played over-handed, under-handed, and one- handed until the crowd roared with approval. After about an hour, Medlocke brought out a beautiful double-neck Gibson guitar and ripped through "Soldier Blue" and "Left Turn On A Red Light" Then, after Medlocke did a slide guitar solo, he announced that they were going to do a song his granddad, Shorty Medlocke, used to play. For now, they would do Shorty's version; later they would do their own. Then the band went into a mellow- groove version of their biggest hit, "Train, Train The crowd was ready for the Blackfoot version, but it wasn't quite time yet After a few more songs, in- cluding "After the Reign" off their latest CD, Medlocke started a little guitar doodle and said to the crowd, "I love to play this song. It goes likes this and slid right into "Highway Song" The crowd sang and pounded their feet to the bass drum so hard the floor shook. Apparently this made Medlocke a happy man because as the song ended he shouted, "One more time and the band went on a ex- tended jam session. Then it was time. The lights went out and a recording of Shorty playing harmonica blared through the loud- speakers. Just as the recording ended the band kicked into a crunching ver- sion of "Train, Train complete with crowd sing-a-long and blistering guitar leads. Then, instead of ending the song they went to a drum solo. A display of raw power at its best The drummer pounded away for a few minutes be- fore half-dropping, half-throwing one stick. But instead of picking up another he picked up a beer and drank with one hand while playing with the other. Using the empty bottle as a drum- stick, he grabbed another bottle with his other hand, drank half, and poured the rest on his kit Then with a bottle in each hand he played on - until one bottle broke. Undaunted, he grabbed a drumstick and played with one stick and one bottle. After the solo, the band left the stage with the audience yelling for more. As one of the Attic staff began playing a song over the loudspeaker, a roadie flashed him with a light and let him know the show wasn't quite over yet The band happily returned for yet another song before the Blackfoot train loaded up and moved on to another town.

If you don't open up this door, I'm gonna kick the motherfucker in Believe him, because if Ass Pocket is any indication of how Burnside is going to proceed now, then he will be blowing the doors of opportunity wide open.

But don't all ads work like that? Isn't the aw whole point of advertising to appeal to whatever inner drives we have as human beings, as capitalists, as Americans, to consume? Sure, adults are more sophisticated than kid's, but that doesn't make us any less susceptible to the consumption urge. If anything, we're more suscep- tible. We're the ones with the money, after all, and there's little better incentive to buy than a pock- etful of cash. As much as people talk about wanting more money, we all seem pretty hell-bent on getting rid of the stuff. Why else would we spend so much of it on so much worthless crap? Maybe it has something to do with the money itself. Sure, it's cqoI having a wad of bills in your wallet, but there's apparently something vaguely dissatisfying about slips of paper. Dollar bills, even in the larger increments, are rather insubstantial. They're small, and despite the dif- ferent guys painted on them, they all look pretty much alike. It's hard to get attached to something with so little personality, so little bulk. Oh, but the things we buy with money, those are a different story. We can buy a whole world of prod- ucts, items of such wildly varying size and appearance as houses pr automobiles or video tapes or Sea Monkeys. Things that are colorful, things we can give pet names to, things to give our lives some mean- ing. As concepts like religion and family begin to fracture, we need something else to fill the void left in our lives. And so we shop. � , There's something horribly sat- isfying about buying things, some primal urge that it massages. It gives vent to greed, it plugs the void it relieves boredom, and most impor- tantly, it gives us a feeling of con- trol. A feeling that we've got our lives in order, that with this new widget we've purchased, we'll be the captains of our destinies. It's a fleeting satisfaction, though, perhaps because we know it's false. The doodads we buy sel- dom work out as well as we envi- sion when we're standing in the store, and there's always a letdovyn. It's called buyer's remorse, and ps what no doubt propels us back into the store to buy some other wonder product with which to regain con- trol. It's all Sea Monkeys in the end, really. Houses, cars, portable GD players, hula hoops and fax ma- chines, they're all just Sea Monkeys. For all their bright packages and promises of great things, they end up lying there inert and frustrating and leaving us to despair for our inability to be happy. But that's a sick way to go about finding happiness. It's gov- erned by the same dark urges that made us want Sea Monkeys as kids, and is just about as successful. Very little fulfillment lies in becoming an aquatic dictator. So I guess it's divine providence that the only person I ever knew who managed to raise live Sea Men- keys was my Aunt Mildred. . But that story will have to wajt I feel a Sea Monkey binge coming on Continued next week. � ' Loliapalooza '96 is coming to Rockingham, NC on Saturday July 20 And WZMB has your ticket!

Brave the links at Indian Trails Low fees ensure college students can play course Craig Perrott Assistant Sports Editor This is the fifth installment in j series of reviews of golf courses in the Greenville Pitt County area. ; If you're looking for an afford- able, non-difficult golf course, then Gnifton is the place for you. . The Indian Trails Country Club islocated about as far away from Greenville as you can get and still be in Pitt County. It took me about twenty minutes to get from there to Mendenhall. Just take Memorial Drive south towards Kinston, past Ayden until you see a Chevron sta- tion on the left hand side of the road. I Turn left off of Memorial Drive (wfiich has by now turned into High- way 11) and drive a couple of miles utftil you get to an intersection with residences on the left and the corn fiid from "The Field of Dreams" on tHe right. Turn right onto Kevin Costner drive Oust kidding, I don't kaow what the name of the road is) and Indian Trails is on the right. Look for the big teepee. If these directions are as bad as I think they are, please remember I was sedated, locked in the trunk of the car and dropped off at the big teepee. Call 1-800-830-4822 for more details. Yes, this number is toll free and is not the psychic friends net- work. Anvway, you can't beat the price at Indian Trails. After 4 o'clock it's $5 to walk nine and $10 to ride. You have got to like those nine-hole rates. As for the course itself, you get what you pay for. The greens are like putting in either the frozen tundra of Siberia or in the bottom of the Grand Canyon. The grass is twice as tall as it's supposed to be. That's where there is grass. The greens should be called "beiges" for their patches of tan dirt. Here's a tip for you: the back nine is in a lot better shape than the front. The fairways are in pretty good condition and are pretty straight on for the most part. There are a few standard dog legs, and some chal- lenging par threes. There is a big ravine lining the right side of the fair- way on the third hole which I like to call "the monster" because it eats up my balls. I wish they would design a course that caters to golfers who slice the ball, instead of ones with all these hook-friendly fairways. The bunkers are sparse, and even if you get in one (which I did. of course), it's no problem to get out because the lips aren't very high. In fact. I hit out of the bunker with a putter! Some of the greens are located on the crest of steep hills, so you have to put it on the money. Water haz- ards are not a problem though, and there is even a creek filled with rocks instead of water than runs through the course. That helps finding balls a lot easier and you can stay dry, too. Trees are not a factor either, as they stay out of the way of your shot and provide some pleasant shade along the cart path. They don't have a short-order grill like some other local courses, but a pack of nabs and a fountain Coke tasted mighty good after a round on the links. Rating: I had a hard time grad- ing this one. It's great as far as affordability and level of difficulty. In the convenience category, it's not great but it's not too bad. either. It all depends on how badly you want to play golf. I guess. The quality of the course is not up to par. so to speak, and neither is the food ser- vice. They're not wood status, but they're definitely not at the short iron level. After much debate. I give the Indian Trails Country Club at Grifton a John Daly zero iron because the quality is low to the ground but you can make your money go a long way.

Martial arts kicks up awards Rec Services ECU Tae Kwon Do (TKD) has done it again. In the past four years. ECU's Tae Kwon Do Club has won seven Collegiate National titles, over 60 ETF National titles, more than 20 North Carolina state titles, (putting five people on the N.C. State TKD team) and roughly 50 National Capitol Open titles. They also boast many state, regional and national awards including this year's ETF In- structor of the Year award given to Instructor Terrance Evins and also this year's ETF National Leader- ship award given to Instructor Chantel Sabus. Sara Wind brought home ECU's first silver medal at the Jun- ior National Tae Kwon Do tourna- ment held in Orlando. Fla June 24- 30. In the midst of over 5.000 com- petitors and over 20.000 spectators in the Orange County Convention Center. Wind weaved through the competition in her sparring divi- sion to lose in a close finals match that ended in a tiebreaker decision match by the judges. The Junior National Tae Kwon Do Tournament is for competitors 18 years and under and it is one of the top tournaments held every year. The only way to get to the tournament is by placing in the top three in the state in your division and then you earn a spot to be a part of your state team. Wind placed first in her divi- sion to make the N.C. TKD team. A select few of the competitors from the tournament are asked to come train with the Olympic Tae Kae Do team, who will compete at the year 2000 Olympic Games in Sidney, Australia. Wind, along with another ECU Tae Kwon Do member, Tabitha Clark (1994 ETF National Cham- pion), will both be participating in the exchange student program at Yunsei University in Seoul, Korea. Both will also be training in Tae Kwon Do in the homeland of this ancient 2000-year-old martial art. They hope to gain greater knowledge and to improve their skills so they can bring ECU Tae Kwon Do and ECU rec services more regional, state and national titles. Under the guidance and expe- rience of Master Byung S. Lee. Sa Bum Nim Terrance Evins (ECU's head instructor) and Sa Mae Chantel Sabus (senior instructor), the club hopes to continue its growth. Another growing martial arts club is Tae Shudo.

IvICIV from page 8 Pendergrass, president of Tae Shudo, attended Rickson Gracie Jiu-Jitsu seminar in Charlotte June 22-23. The purpose of attending this seminar was to relate the knowledge and skills of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu that he would acquire back to Tae Shudo Club. As a second-degree brown belt, Thomas was delighted to see such in-depth analysis of ground fighting. All traditional styles of the martial arts address the four ranges of com- bat: kicking, punching, trapping and grappling. How well each style ad- dresses each range of combat is left to be argued. Since Tae Shudo itself is a pre- dominantly striking art, Thomas thought that it would only be ben- eficial to attend to see the world- renowned grappling style of Gracie Jui-Jitsu. During the seminar, Gracie taught defensive and offensive tech- niques, which addressed stand up, mount, guard, and cross mount po- sitions. Techniques that were em- phasized at the seminar included arm locks, chocks (with or without collar) and ankle locks. The Tae Shudo Club is cur- rently meeting at 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. Monday through Thursday. The club is looking forward to having a good year and will continue to train hard.

Irvin eludes jail time (AP) - Michael Irvin was sen- tenced Tuesday to four years probation and fined $10,000 after the Dallas Cowboys receiver pleaded no contest to a second-degree felony cocaine pos- session charge. State District Judge Manny Alvarez accepted the terms of a plea bargain worked out Monday. The pro- bation is considered deferred adjudi- cation, meaning the charge will be erased from his record if Irvin stays . out of trouble for four years. Alvarez warned Irvin that any vio- lation of his probation could trigger a sentence. "Then the full range of punish- ment is available to me the judge said. The judge also ordered Irvin to perform 800 hours of community ser- vice. The judge said the first one-third of Irvin's community service would be work such picking up roadside trash or helping at an AIDS resource center. Alvarez warned Irvin that should he violate the probation, he could be sentenced to up to 20 years in prison. "I want you to know and under- stand that four years of deferred adju- dication is not a cakewalk the judge said. Irvin appeared subdued at the hearing. His wife, Sandi, and two young daughters were with him in court for DISCOVER A LITTLE CORNER OF U the first time during the trial. . Alvarez ordered Irvin to submit to a drug evaluation within 45 days and to undergo court-approved psychologi- cal counseling. Although Irvin is likely to be pun- ished by the NFL, he's free to be in Austin for the opening of Cowboys training camp today. The NFL has been saying for months that it wouldn't rule on Irvin's eligibility until the trial concluded. On Monday, NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said Irvin's status "will be reviewed under the terms of our substance abuse policy Although it's possible Irvin's record could be cleansed of the charge, the NFL could decide that evidence and testimony from the trial is prob- able cause for a suspension. He could be kept off the field without pay from for four games to an entire season. He makes $102,647 per game. "Michael is glad to get this behind him and get back on with his life de- fense attorney Don Godwin said Mon- day. "He intends to get down to Austin to be part of the training camp and to help the Dallas Cowboys Lead prosecutor Mike Gillett said attorneys had been discussing a pos- sible plea "from indictment to today "I think the important thing is it's been disposed of in what 1 see as a positive manner for our office and for Mr. Irvin he said. While the timing of the decision keeps Irvin's football career on track, it also came amid testimony from top- less dancer Rachelle Smith, the prosecution's star witness. "Let's make sure, ladies and gentlemen, that everyone understands that Michael Irvin's plea of no contest was not as a result of the testimony of Rachelle Smith defense attorney Royce West said, adding that attorneys were prepared to cross-examine Smith Monday. The deal was sealed, West said, because prosecutors withdrew their demand that Irvin plead guilty and agree to five years' probation. "A plea of guilty may very well have (had) a significant impact on his ability to con- tinue to play ball West said. On Friday, Smith testified outside the jury's presence that Irvin claimed ownership of the drugs hours after a March 4 bust at an Irving motel net- ted 10.3 grams of cocaine, more than an ounce of marijuana and drug para- phernalia. She also said Irvin had threatened her on several occasions but the dis- trict attorney's office is not consider- ing filing witness-tampering charges. "It's a dead issue Gillett said. Smith is the girlfriend of Johnnie Hernandez, the ex-Dallas police officer accused of hiring a hitman to have Irvin killed, reportedly in retaliation for his threats against Smith. Also indicted after the motel raid were topless dancers Angela Beck and Jasmine Nabwangu, who were in the motel suite with Irvin. Alfredo Roberts, a former teammate of Irvin's, was present that night but not indicted. Beck and Nabwangu still face charges. across from the courthouses on the comer of Evans and Third street cJn a cafe setting, serving breakfast and luncn Monday - Friday 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. 757-1716 � 300 ��vans gtrwt � 767-1716 y Vv WE'VE GOT YOUR FAVORITE DC COMICS AND MORE!
