Students starting the semester on an academic warning or probation have one semester in which to pull their GPA up sufficiently, get back in good academic standing and avoid suspen- sion. Dorothy Muller, Dean of Undergraduate Studies, says it is important for students to be informed about what the standards are that determine good academic standing, academic warning, proba- tion and suspension. "lb be in good academic standing, a student with 31 or fewer hours must have a 1.75 or better. A student with 32 or more hours must have a 2.0 to be in good academic standing. Students who are not in good acad- emic standing are placed on warning Muller said. Muller explained that these stan- dards are new ones, which have been adopted but are not yet being enforced. "While we are studying the impact of the new standards, students are not suspr ded under the new standards, they are placed on warning. They are suspended under the old standards Muller said. The old standards require lower GPA's and are different for each classi- fication from freshman through senior. Freshmen are required to have a 1.35, sophomores a 1.60, juniors a 1.80, and seniors need a 1.90 GPA. "A number ot years ago, when the new standards were proposed, the committee believed that it was inap- propriate to tell students that they were okay when they had a 1.35 or a 1.6, or even a 1.8. (The committee felt) that the students really needed to know that grades are important from the beginning Muller said. Students who are placed on acade- mic warning, probation, or suspension are not left on their own to return to satisfactory academic standing. "We have for several years now been working with students placed on warning and students placed on pro- bation to try to provide assistance that they might need in making progress toward graduation Muller said. That assistance includes an Academic Enhancement Conference, held a week before classes start and required for all those on warning or probation, and optional workshops held throughout the semester. ftt that conference, every student got a letter telling him or her what his or her situation is, and what grades the student must earn either to avoid pro- bation or suspension Muller said, and continued, "we have workshops on career selection, we have work- shops on test taking, note taking, and also opportunities for students to sit down and talk to someone individual- ly With the exception of the confer- ence, all of the resources available to the students are voluntary, and Muller stressed that it is up to the student to take respon- sibility for their academic success or failure. If they do not pull their GPA up to an accept- able standard, they are suspended. "If students fail to meet the crite- ria for staying in school while they are on probation, then they are suspend- ed. A student who is suspended the first time is suspended for a semester. If they come back in and don't get their grades back where they are sup- posed to be, then they are suspended for two semesters. The third suspen- sion is indefinite�the student can only come in the summer Muller said. Muller said that the purpose of a suspension is to give the student a chance to resolve whatever problems led to their academic difficulties in the first place, whether they are finan- cial, personal, or lack of time manage- ment or studv skills. "A student who has been suspend- ed comes back en probation. During that semester on probation, they must improve his or her academic standing to where it should be, or the student is suspended again Muller said. In addition to the services available to students to help them get off pro- bation, there are policies in place that help students keep their grades up, such as the grade replacement policy. This policy allows students to repeat any 1000 or 2000 level course in which they received a D or F and can be used up to three times. If the class is passed the second time, the failing grade is not used in computing the GPA, but only the second grade. Muller stressed that the grade replacement form, which must be turned in to the registrar's office in order to make use of this opportunity, must be turned m by the last day of the add period If the form is not turned in on time, the student cannot replace the grade. While, primary responsibility for arty student's grades rests with the student, there are services available to help anyone who � having trouble. These services are there to be utilized by those who are trying to get out of probation or suspension, or those try- ing to avoid it. Student store managers need suggestions Student ideas for products and appearai welcome AMY L.ROYSTER ASSISTANT NEWS EDITOR This spring, the Student Store plans to offer new items and programs as well as traditional merchandise. Store manager Winda Scarborough said that while the Student Store will continue to offer text books, school supplies, apparel, computers, comput- er software, caps and gowns, apparel, beauty aids, class rings and nursing pins, new wearing apparel items will be available. "W; are trying to look for a lot of new items as far as wearing apparel Scarborough said. "Jake Jacobs is our new assistant manager who will be doing the apparel buying He has a lot of new ideas A coffee club, another new idea, started when dinning services and the Student Store joined forces. Scarborough said that after purchasing a specific amount of coffee from any campus dinning facility, students may receive a discount on reading books. Similarly, students whose reading book purchases total a set amount may receive discounted coffee. Scarborough said the Student Store also offers special event t-shirts for organizations and departments on campus. "If any student has ideas for t- shirts, we are open to suggestions Scarborough said. Other responsibilities of the stu- dent store include offering course packs and maintaining vending machines on campus. The store regularly offers a dis- count rack in the wearing apparel sec- tion which offers at least 30 percent off selected items and accepts cash, checks, Visa and Mastercard. The Student Store employs 25 full-time and 25 part-time students. "We like to have student employ- ees because it gives diem the oppor- tunity to work on campus dose to classes and to give the rest of the staff their input on what students �aht Scarborough said: All profits realized by the Student Store are used for student scholar- ships. Scarborough said many stu- dents may not understand they are helping other students by patronizing the Student Store. "Students cast give us ideas for things they want to see in the store Scarborough said. "Our main purpose is service. ECU student store names assistant manager AMY L.

January 16. 1997 The East Carolinian Crime prevention team patrols campus Police escorts, "blue lights promote safety Am en Hassan SUFK WRITER The Crime Prevention team within the ECU Police Department will be offering the same services this semester that have been utilized by students in the past. Through the use of escorts, surveys and regular patrolling the department is making an effort to ensure the safety of all students. "We are in the process of prioritizing the placement of blue light phones crime pre- vention officer Sergeant Davis said. The blue light phones which have emergency buttons are located throughout campus. "When a button is pressed by a student in trouble, the police department is able to dis- patch an officer to the exact location said Officer McDaniel, patrol officer. "The blue light phones enable a student to get help even if he or she can't talk or is being chased by someone. When the student presses many blue light phones wc can often check their path if they are being chased The depart- ment is working on mapping future blue light placement through five years from now. In addition to the blue light phones, the department is taking lighting surveys two nights a week. "We are sending police officers on patrol so that they can check if there are any light outs Davis said. "Officers also look out for dark areas where lighting may be need- ed, since these areas are obviously more recog- nizable at night rather than during the day. We haven't seen any potential problems in badly lit areas, but we're still making sure, in light of the recent incidents on campus. Since the downtown areas are already well lit, we are just reporting random light outages Police officers are on regular patrol at night and especially at peak times. According to Davis, these peak times vary but are mainly around the time when there are more students moving around on campus. "Our main goal is to be visible, when patrolling on campus Davis said. "We are aiways looking for new ideas and challenges to make the campus a more secure place Another form of patrol that the ECU police department uses is bike patrol. Officers are able to maneuver through campus on bikes rather that patrol cars in order to react faster in a situation. McDaniel feels bike patrol is more of a supplement to car patrol. "It is easier to ask students questions while being on a bike, and since a lot of students ride bikes anyway, we have something in common with them McDaniel commented. "I personally think that bike patrol ;s ten times more quick than trying to get through campus traffic in a car Davis said. "However, because of the inclement weather we can't have them riding in twenty degree weather The Police Department is open twenty- four hours a day and is located on 10th street. Nonemergencv inquiries can be directed to 328-4827 for the Main Campus or 816-3863 for the School of Medicine. Student health expands services "Health Bandits" out to promote well-being am en a Hassan STAFF WRITER This semester the Student Health Service department will be offering a variety of familiar programs along with a few new ones which will provide students with needed services, edu- cating them in the process. "Everything is pretty much set up as a doctors clinic with basically the same services as last year" said Heather Zophy, Health Education Coordinator. "We offer information on alcohol, sexually transmitted dis- eases, dating, eating disorders, contra- ceptives, and other topics of concern The Students Health Service, a part of the Division of Student Life, is a department that consists of a direc- tor, a clinical director, physicians, mental health personnel, pharmacists, health educators, registered nurse, lab technologists, x-ray technologists, nursing assistants, and other staff. All enrolled students can take advantage of this service if the department has the required, recorded report of their medical history and immunizations. The department has an urgent care facility for students in need of emer- gency care, an allergy clinic, col- poscopyandroscopy clinics, a mental health clinic, and x-ray services. Physical therapy services arc also offered, as well as HP and AIDS referrals. "An assertive marketing approach that we are using this semester are the Health Bandits Zophy stated. The "Health Bandits which consist of some Health Services staff dressed in scrubs, stethoscopes, and Band- Aids, will be in front of the Students Stores and on campus. "Their goal is to make students more aware of health issues by asking them questions and giving the win- ners "goody bags' filled with items such as ibuprofen and antibiotic oint- ment. "The students seem to enjoy being approached said one of a group of health bandits. "They are mostly curious and are receptive to us, especially when they receive their prizes Students should be on the look out for the Health Bandits on campus all semester. Tours of the Student Health Service can be given by request to classes or to students on an individual basis. Student Health Service is open from 8 am to 5 p.m. on Monday through Friday and 9 am to noon on Saturdays and Sundays. Pharmacists are available to take prescriptions from Monday through Fridays at 8 am to 5 p.m. only. Students can obtain medicine from the pharmacy at a reduced cost which can be purchased by check or cash.

January 16. 1997 The East Carolinian ur Inspired veteranarian turns writer in North Carolina mountains HENDERSONV1LLE, N.C. (AP) - He was a successful Veterinarian, and one day he was standing on his back deck, gazing at the land before him and thinking about this and all the other things his career had afforded him. "I suddenly realized it had been months since I had been out there Dr. Brad Swift said, "and I thought, 'there to something wrong with this picture - I don't enjoy it faecause I spend so much of my time trying to pay for it Today, Swift is a writer living in Flat Rock. His articles have been published in Hope, The Utne Reader, Yoga Journal and other magazines. He also has a pair of books in different stages of production. "It was a fairly radical switch Swift confessed. "I imagined myself at the end of my life and I asked myself if I didn't go for being a writer, would I regret it? When I was leally honest with myself, the answer was yes It wasn't that Swift was tired of cats and dcgs. More precisely, it was a feeling that told him his life was about something other than what he was doing. "There are many different ways of expressing one's life purpose Swift explained. "Being a vet was one way, but for me the purpose led in a different direction Life's purpose - the thing deep within you that you want to pursue, whether you know what it is or not - is cen- tral to Swift's work. It has led him, with his wife Ann, to establish the Life on Purpose Foundation, based in Flat Rock. "Our purpose is broken down into two parts Swift explained. "One is to promote public awareness of service- oriented individuals and organizations who unselfishly contribute their time to others by being of service. "The other purpose he continued, "is to educate peo- ple in what's available by determining your life purpose and living consistent with it The foundation highlights service-oriented folks because Swift believes that service is an element of most people's life purpose. And beyond writing, mostly about Cople of service, Swift believes the purpose of his life is Iping people as they search for theirs. "I've seen people who have spent years of their life searching out in the world for their life purpose he said, "having to look out there someplace, and I don t think that's where it is "I think where you get that is from within yourself, and k's not so much a matter of finding it as it is creating it. You make it up, and try it out for a while, and see if it makes a difference in your life and the life of others Having a positive effect on others, Swift believes, is a good indication that you're on the right track. "One of the fundamental aspects of what it is to be a human being is to want to make a contribution to other human beings he said. "For me, that equates to being of service. When you identify your way of being of service, you're very close to what your life purpose is But being of service, and being a coach for people experimenting with their own version of sitting on the back porch ami wondering whether it's worth it, does not make Swift a guru. In fact, he cringes at the label. "I don't let anyone call me that, even in jest he said. "I'm just as fallible as anybody. I'm not a teacher. I don't have all the answers, but I do have a way of working with somebody that makes a difference when they are willing to look with me - what I commonly call "being coachable Swift also wants to help children explore their dreams and find purpose. It has become another focus for the Life on Purpose Foundation. "The Kids on Purpose project came out of a conversa- tion I had with my daughter, Amber, about what she wants to be. There are a lot of other kids out there that have equally great dreams Amber is 4, and her current dreams include becoming a singer or a ballerina. Her photo, in a dance costume, graces the signs on several bubble-gun machines placed in local businesses for the benefit of the foundation. The project's goal is to provide support - coaching, seed money, and guidance - for people between 6 and 18 years old, to help them determine what their dreams are and to be able to fulfill them. "It doesn't take much money at a critical time to say 'Yes, you can do what you want to do, and here's some help Swift observed. He also offers workshops to organizations around the country. The next one is in February, at a meeting of the Minnesota veterinary Association. How does he feel about returning to face an audience of former colleagues? "I'm scared to death he said. It looks like he will have to live with those kinds of fears. Swift's foundation is gaining increasing attention, primarily through his freelance writing for magazines. The pieces have drawn inquiries from as far sway as Israel. Additionally, his new book, "The Human Being Service Manual: Designing a Life of Purpose and Service is expected to be released soon.

Black, nominated by House Democrats at a closed caucus Tuesday, said he believes he can win the House's top post, even though Democrats have only 59 votes, two short of a majority. "I am a serious candidate for speaker of the House Black said after the caucus. "This is more than do-able But Brubaker, an Asheboro Republican seeking his second term, said he was not worried about his chances. "This is simply another case of wishful thinking on the part of the Democrats Brubaker said. "House Republicans are united and will stick together. I enjoyed the support of conservative Democrats last time and I look forward to receiving it again Several Democrats had started maneuvering for the speaker's post even before the Nov. 5 elections. But instead of gaining a majority in the 120-member House, which they lost in 1994, Democrats only increased their number from 52 to 59. RALEIGH (AP) - A legislative commission studying changes to the state's fishing laws has delayed any action until at least Feb. 10, nearly two weeks after the Legislature opens its session. Among the proposals it will consid- er at that meeting is a compromise by Rep. David Redwine, D-Brunswick, that would let fishing piers and boats that cater to tourists buy group licens- es. That would allow tourists to fish the coastal waters without buying an individual license. No license is needed to fish along the coast now, but a committee studying the state's dwindling fish supplies has recommended requiring recreational fishermen to buy licens- es. The legislative commission heard from pier operators, boat owners, recreational fishermen and commer- cial fishermen Tuesday as it contin- ued a public hearing on a 155-page list of reforms. Lawmakers said they want to take action, but need to spend more time on the recommendations, which took the N.C. Moratorium Steering Committee two years to develop. GREENSBORO (AP) - A verdict eluded jurors on their first day of try- ing to decide whether to make ABC Inc. pay Food lion as much as $1.9 billion in damages for a hidden cam- era story. The jury deliberated 5 hours Tuesday before telling U.S. District Court Judge Carlton Tilley they wanted to go home. Earlier, the jury sent out a note asking for a list of agreements, called stipulations, between each side. Tilley responded with a note that the jury needed to be specific about what they wanted and there was no further exchange between the jury and judge. ABC's 'PrimeTime Live" aired a report Nov. 5, 1992, that accused Food Lion of selling old meat, bleach- ing spoiled meat to kill odor and sell- ing cheese gnawed by rats. Food Lion denied the allegations, but didn't file a libel suit. The grocery chain's attorneys said nothing in the 43 hours of ABC video- tape backed up the allegations made in the report. But Tilley told jurors they were to assume the report was true. RALEIGH (AP) - The parents of a 9-year-old girl whose intestines were pulled out when she was caught in the open drain of a wading pool say a record settlement will allow their daughter to have a financially secure future The family of Vfelerie Lakey will receive $30.9 million after announc- ing a settlement Tuesday with the Wisconsin company that made the pool drain covers. "What we were trying to accom- plish is to have things set up so that Valerie's health care would be taken care of, so that she wouldn't have to be on public aid the rest of her life, and so she could get a job she wanted, without worrying about whether insurance would cover her or not said David Lakey, Valerie's father. Valerie and her family agreed not to pursue punitive damages against Sta-Rite Industries. On Monday, the jury awarded the Lakeys $25 million in compensatory damages for the 1993 accident. The settlement means that Sta-Rite Industries will not appeal the jury's decision. Social worker cross-examined by prosecutor in Wallace trial CHARLOTTE (AP) - Answering questions from the prosecutor, a social worker who investigated convicted serial killer Henry Louis Wallace's upbringing admitted that much of her information came from the defendant himself. Wallace, 31, was convicted last week of raping and strangling nine Chadott- women from 1992 to 1994. He face the death penalty or life in prison. Defense attorneys are asking the jury to spare his life in the sentencing phase now taking place. On Monday, social worker Carmeta Albarus answered friendly questions posed by public defender Isabel Day. She portrayed Wallace as a man warped at an early age by an abu- sive mother and absentee father who is now controlled by violent sexual compulsions. However, Mecklenburg County Assistant District Attorney Marsha Goodenow challenged some of the conclusions Albarus wrote in her 42- page report on Wallace. The social worker acknowledged that much of the information she had about Wallace's early childhood - including allegations of bearings and sexual molestation - came from Wallace. . si at) "MS i a 1 � 4 T.j h t j 3 mo � �� a S3 � I JaT SfB WE ALL KNOW RACISM IS WRONG.

A freshman from Statesviile, NC, Home says that being part of the team means practicing harder, being tougher mentally, and valuing a win a lot more. A a member of the Amateur Athletic Union and a participant in seven national tournaments throughout her career, Home feels that the strength of the team lies mostly within the hands of Coach Anne Donovan. "Coach Donovan is by far the best coach around Home said. "We all have . not only a good coachathlete relationship, but also a coachathlete friendship. She understands each of us because everything we are experiencing as athletes, she has experienced, too Teammate Nicole Mamula, who is playing Pirate ball for the first time this year, agrees that the team has the best to look up to. "Coach Donovan is a tough coach but a good coach. She pushes us hard to be the best we can be Mamula said. Mamula is a junior college player who began her career at Winthrop University, which is part of the Big South Conference. The day after she signed her letter of intent, the coach was fired. She then went on to play for Frederick Junior College, in Frederick, MD, where she led the team to an overall record of 29-3. She was named Kodak Junior College Ail-American (the top ten "Coach Donovan is a tough coach but a good coach. She pushes us hard to be the best we can be Nicole Mamula ECU woman's basketball teammember junior college players in the country are awarded the honor) as she ied the country in three-point field goals. A communications major from Laurel, MD, Mamula feels that her father has influenced her winning spirit and attitude. "My father is who I looked up to for every- thing in my life. He is truly a great person to fol- low behind Mamula said. Freshman Melanie Gillem, who is focusing mostly of defense this season, says that if she could thank one person for their support and encouragement throughout her experiences as a player, it would definitely be her mom. "My mom has always pushed me to be strong and do my best because she had always dreamed of playing college basketball herself Gillem said. "She is so supportive of me. When 1 was in high school, she missed only one of my games Gillem chose to come to ECU because she liked the location and the people of the Pirate communi- ty. She says that playing ball here is completely different from her past experiences as an athlete because for the first time ever, she has to compete against her teammates for a starting position. "At first, all of the new faces were really intimidating Gillem said. "But now we are all very close and we work together well Coming from Roseboro, NC, freshman Danielle Melvin chose ECU because she felt that this is where she will best be able to make a statement about her love for the sport and her talent out on the court. With an older sister who plays basketball for NC State, Melvin says her parents have inspired a legend of basketball for their whole family. "Words cannot explain how much support, good advice, and confidence they have given me Melvin said. As a member of a high school team that claimed victory at the State Championship her sophomore year, Melvin says that playing college basketball is different from playing in high school because her role on the team is so specif- ic now. "In high school, I could basically do what I wanted out on the court. Here, everyone on the team has a specific job. I contribute mostly to the offense and getting in for rebounds Melvin said. Melvin hopes to establish a place on the team for herself this year, and improving more and more each day comes first on her list of priori- ties. After struggling with several injuries includ- ing a broken leg, junior college player Jen Cox transferred to ECU after spending two years at Vanderbuilt. According to her, playing basketball is like having a job. "It takes a lot of concentration and discipline to get all of my studying done, but playing bas- ketball is the main reason why I am here Cox said. Cox agrees with her teammates that Coach Donovan is one of the best of coaches around. "You couldn't ask for a better coach Cox said. "She is very intense and she expects a lot out of us. That is the kind of guidance we need to be the best Other first year Pirate players Include Ashanta Sellers from Largo, MD, and Chrissy White from New Bern, NC. Before each game, the team meets for a pregame meal. It is at this time that the girls have the opportunity to relax together and get focused to take their places on the court. As their season continues, there are many challenges that still lie before the girls. The Lady Pirates will be on the road tomorrow as they play George Mason in another conference battle.

If you are looking for'an alternative to the usual spring break vacation, Kitty Hawk Kites is the place for you. As it sounds by its name, they do offer kite frying but the fun doesn't stop there. They offer a range of activities from hang gliding to kayak- ing to sailing. Kitty Hawk Kites is known for hang gliding as they offer the world's largest hang gliding school. More than 200,000 people have taken lessons and they have an annual sign up rate of 10,000 to 15,000 people who want to take lessons. But if you're more inclined to staying down to the ground, then they offer a number of watersports from windsurfing, sailing and kayak- ing. Through kayaking, the sights of the Atlantic Ocean and Albemarle Sound can be seen or Jockey's Ridge State Park which hosts the East Coast's largest dune that rises 85 feet above sea level. And of course the Wright Brothers Memorial, which is a tourists delight, is another favorite attraction. The President of Kitty Hawk Kites, John Harris, founded Kitty Hawk Kites in 1974, and the busi- ness has been thriving ever since. Harris fell in love with .he sport of hang gliding and wanted to share it with others. "I fell in love with the concept of hang glidingwith their portability, their being your own personal wings Harris said. So if you have ever wanted to be one with the birds in flight, without sitting in an enclosed space then hang gliding is your sport. "You don't need an airport or a pilot or fuel; all you need is to get to the top of a hill or mountain Harris said. "Hang gliding brought a whole new dimension to flight If you're interested there are a number of ways they can be reached. By the Internet their site is - www.kittyhawk.comkittyhawk or by e-mail at information@khkinfo.pdial.inter- path.net Their phone number is 919-441- 4127 and the address is RO. Box 1839, 3933N S. Croatan Highway at Jockey's Ridge, Nags Head, NC 27959. When Harris began this business he had one thought in mind when it came to hang gliding. �OSS.

That's right, it's time for the young '97 college baseball season to crank up, and young is the adjective to describe ECU head baseball coach Gary Ovcrton's club. Last season the Pirates started off strong by handled nationally ranked programs like Tennessee and Kentucky at the beginning of the sea- son but seemed to sputter towards the end of the season with heat break- ing conference losses. The Bucs return a lot of experienced personnel but only have two to show for senior leadership. The Pirates will return sophomore second baseman Travis Thompson as well as much improved catcher junior Tim Flaherty. Flaherty will come into the '97 season with .252 batting average from '96 as well as the man with the power, leading the Bucs with eight homers last sea- son. The rest of the infield will be new faces for the starting line up. Sophomore Jason Howard and fresh- man Jimmy Forrest will compete for first base which was vacated by the move of Randy Rigsby to the outfield. Junior transfer Ryan Massino will fill a gap at the shortstop and give the Bucs some added power to the line up. Finally Raleigh native and Louisburg JC stand out Matt Williams will play third base for the Pirates. The outfield will show the most experience for Ovcrton's club with all three positions filled by experienced players. Rigsby will make the move from first base to center field to fill the void left by former Pirate captain Jason Head. Left field will be manned once again by Steve Salargo. The Wilson native had an outstanding freshman season and looks to improve in 97. Last, but certainly not least at right field will be the speedster Antaine Jones. Jones, the sophomore from Stella, NC, showed that he was a threat at the plate batting .297 and was every pitchers nightmare as a threat to steal on any given pitch. The Pirate pitching staff is extremely young and has no definite rotation as of yet, but look for Brian Fields and Kevin Fulchcr to start off strong for ECU. Fultcher comes off of a solid finish to the '96 season and Fields a proven performer as a transfer out of NC State. The Pirates will start the season on a road trip to Charleston, SC for a bat- tle with the Citadel on February 7. HEROES ARE HERE TOO!

January 16, 1997 lifestyle The East Carolinian The Anonymous 4 will be bringing their vocal chanting talents to Wright Auditorium Saturday evening. PHOTO COURTESY Of S. BUOOIPH AUXAWKR raffOTMWB ART SERIES Medieval vocalists sing at Wright ANDY TURNER SENIOR WRITER Are you ready for the Anonymous 4 to get medieval on your ass? Not a twisted tribute to Tarantino or Pulp Fiction, the Anonymous 4 are actually four women who have won international critical and commercial success with their recordings and per- formances of medieval chants. The group will perform Saturday night at Wright Auditorium on the ECU cam- pus. The event, part of the S. Rudolph .Alexander Performing An Series, is slated to begin at 8 p.m. Ruth Cunningham, Marsha Genensky, Susan Hellauer and Johanna Maria Rose formed in 1986 to experiment with the sound of medieval chant and polyphony as sung by higher voices. Anonymous 4 takes its name from an anonymous 13th century Englishman who, as a student in Paris, wrote about the vocal polyphony then being performed at the Cathedral of Notre Dame. The group combines musical, liter- ary and historical scholarship with 20th century performing intuition to create programs that interweave music with poetry and narrative. The '90s has brought incredible success to the four women. Their first album, An English Ijidymass, was named Classical Disc of the Year for 1993 by CD Review. So far, it has sold more than 150,000 copies worldwide. Their sophomore effort. On Yoolis Night, topped the Billboard classical chart within two months of its release. On Yoolis Night was awarded the prestigious French Diapason d'Or award. Lace's Illusion, the group's third album, has sold more than 100,000 copies world- wide. The success of the Anonymous 4 has taken the group across the United States and Europe. They have played at festivals in Germany, France, England and Spain. Their concerts in Attic swings tonight with Nut Zippers Jay Myers LIFESTYLE EDITOR If you're not already familiar with Squirrel Nut Zippers, chances are you will be soon. Why? Because this Chapel Hill band is coming to our very own Attic nightclub tonight. Usually the music scene in the Emerald City caters to roots rock and beach music fans, but tonight is differ- ent. Tonight Greenville goes back in time to an era where everything was cool, classy, smoky, and jazzy. Squirrel Nut Zippers play a wicked combina- tion of swing, jazz, big band, dixieland and bop music. And this sound seems to be garnering some national attention. Not only have they enticed us younguns to discover the joys of our grandparents' old 78 rpm records, but they have also tugged on the ears of the old timers as well. After the release of their first album, The Inevitable Squirrel Nut Zippers, the band appeared on Late Night with Conan O'Brien and National Public Radio even did a piece about them in which one bandmember said, "Right now we're just at the point of not quite making it Without a doubt, they certainly "made it" after the release of their sophomore effort. Hot, last year. Selling out dates all over the United States, Squirrel Nut Zippers still seem to have plenty of time for their fellow Carolinians and tend to play several times a year here, as well. I've seen them three times and I can guarantee you that you'll have a good time if you go to the Attic tonight. These kids play everything from banjo to sax- ophone to an upright bass in order to make sure that their sound is authentic to that once heard in the hippest clubs and music halls of the '20s, '30s and '40s. It all works perfectly. Yet none of the instrumentation compares with the angelic voice of Miss Katharine Whalen, banjo player and sometime lead singer. All the comparisons'that are drawn between Whalen and jazz great Billie Holiday are deserved, and Whalen also includes an equal dose of Betty Boop as an influence in her broad range of vocal stylings. Whalen's smoky, dreamy, drop-everything-and-listen vocal presence seems to speak from a different era. This is not to sav that the rest of the band is the United States often sell out and require re-engagements. Cunningham, Genensky, Hellauer and Rose have also been featured on numerous national radio programs, including National Public Radio's Weekend Edition and Performance Today and Garrison Keillor's A Prairie Home Companion. Advance tickets for the event are available for $15 to die public $12 for ECU faculty and staff and $7 for ECU students and youths. All tickets will be $15 at the door. rbr more information, call the Central Ticket Office at 328-4788 or 1-800-ECU-ARTS . rbr deaf or speech impaired access call 328-4736. The tick- et office is open 8:30 am to 6 p.m lacking. Far from it, actually. Having lost a mem- ber since Inevitable (bet that guy's kicking him- self now), the now six member group includes three other proficient vocalists, Tom Maxwell, Ken Mosher and James Mathus, all of whom are competent, high-energy musicians as well. Joining Squirrel Nut Zippers as an opening act will be The Blue Rags from Boone, NC who were recently signed to the alternative label Sub Pop records. (Rumor has it that Afghan Whigs' lead singer Greg Dulli caught their act and rec- ommended that they be signed.) The Blue Rags play ragtime jazz, so their sound will work in per- fect coordination with Squirrel Nut Zippers. All in all, this should be a great evening. So prepare yourself for the show tonight. Go to Dapper Dan's downtown and buy an old tux or evening dress, get some cigars from Onix, and get ready to dance your ass off, old school style. Bands like these don't come to Greenville often, so you should jump on the chance to see them. Who knows, if enough people show up, we might get a chance to have more of a diverse musical choice here. But only if people go tonight. The tickets are $7.50 and are available at CD Alley and East Coast Music & Video. See ya there. The Attic goes back in time tonight vAm tha Squirrel Nut Zippers hit the stage.

NC. die someday hopes to be a thoroughly mtkss member ofsocietj. Christmas break is over and the students of ECU are faced with another semester of attending classes, writing papers, taking tests and stressing out. Everyone knows this is the longest stretch of the year. What can we do to avoid a total nervous breakdown in the face of all this stress? I suggest attending a few of the produc- tions scheduled to complete the 1996-97 ECU Playhouse season. Three big shows are planned for the second semester: Dance '91, SubUrbia, and Lysistrata. This combination of dance, drama, and comedy is sure to give you that necessary break from the rigors of col- lege life. 1 he first production this semester, Dance '91, follows in the tradition of past dance the- atre productions from the department of the- atre and dance. Faculty and guest artists choreograph original pieces which are then brought to life by the dancers on stage. Add to the dancers' movements a complex light- ing arrangement, beautiful costumes, and music that will keep you humming days after the show is over and you have a theatrical experience that is not to be missed. Dance '91 will be performed Thursday, Feb. 6, through Tuesday, Feb. 11. Eric Bogosian's SubUrbia is the next show this semester. SubUrbia is a complex show dealing with the lives of several young people trying to survive in the '90s. There is hardly a controversial topic not dealt with in the course of this production, but Bogosian does so in a completely new way. He looks at these topics - sex, drugs, depression, alcohol and more - from a "Generation X" point of view. Too many people forget or refuse to accept that today's youth are living in dangerous times, with seriously disturbing problems to face. Bogosian tackles these issues and forces us to see what happens to our children when they start spending more time out of the home than in it. This show does contain harsh language and mature content. SubUrbia will be performed Thursday, Feb. 27, through Tuesdav, March 4. The final play in the ECU Playhouse 1996-97 season is Aristophanes' classic battle of the sexes, Lysistrata. Set during the Peloponnesian War, Lysistrata is the story of the Athenian women's struggle to put an end SEE EYE.

You may not know who he is, but you have definite- ly heard of his magazine, Hustler. Larry Ffynt began publishing Hustler as a promotional gimmick for his string of strip clubs in Ohio. The raw and raunchy magazine caught national attention after it published nude pho- tos of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, the former First Lady. Hustler's sales con- tinued to boom throughout the early 70s, making Flynt into a multi-mil- lionaire almost overnight. And that is why people hate Larry Flynt. He is an obnoxious, opinionat- ed, larger-than-life, no apologies porn publisher with tons of money. He has been in and out of court in defense of his right to publish because many peo- ple believe him to be the lowest form of human life possible - a scum king. That's where the new film, Tie People vs. Larry Ffynt, comes in. In this new movie, directed by Milos Forman (One Flev Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Amadeus) and produced by Oliver Stone (Platoon, Born on the Fourth of July, JFK, Natural Born Killers, Nixon), Woody Harrelson portrays Larry Frynt and his struggle to be the emperor of sleaze in America. Although many people are disgusted by the trash that Flynt produces and feel him to be below redemption, it still must be remembered that Flynt is an American citizen, and as such he is guaranteed certain rights within the law. The right to freedom of speech is one of those. Although the film portrays (with painful clarity) FTynt's drug addiction, sexual promiscuity, physical handicap, and mental illness, the main focus of the narative is on an individual's right to speak his mind without fear of cen- sorship from the government. As icon- oclastic as Flynt is, he truly believes in the rights of American citizens, so much so that he took his battle to the Supreme Court. Flynt is an unusual American hero (and I'm not sure if that is even the right word to be used in conjunction with him), but his life makes for an extremely entertaining and thought-provoking piece of film.

PHOTO COURTESY OF COLUMBIA PICTURES Joining Woody Harrelson in the film are Hole lead singer and widow of Kurt Cobain, Courtney Love, as Flynt's wife Althca Lcasurc; Woody's real-life brother Brett as Flynt's broth- er Jimmy; and Love's current boyfriend Edward Norton as Flynt's attorney Alan Isaacman. The always bizarre writeractor Crispin Glover shows up as Frynt flunkie Arlo, as well. Several interesting cameos show up, too. Look for Frynt himself as Judge Morrissey, the man behind the bench on Flynt's first court confrontation, and James Carville, the senior political advisor to President Clinton, as anti- pom crusader Simon Lcis. Love is amazingly good in the film as the stripper turned wife turned publisher turned drug addict, Althca. The love shared between Leasure and Flynt is vibrant, dedicated, honest and, of course, weird, and Harrelson and Love give it all the spark it needs to ignite the screer Love shows a true connection with the character of Althca and if any more parts come up that require a drug-addled slut with more than half a brain, I suggest she snatch them up - she's perfect. No really, she does do a good job. The best performance in the film, however, comes from Harrelson. Looking and sounding nothing like Flynt in real life, Harrelson becomes Frynt on the big screen. He is as manic, garrulous, and wacko as Frynt has ever been, which gives the film its creepy yet tantalizing feel. As for the film itself, I would highly recommend it. If you're going for tital- lation, you'll get it. If you're going for intelligent discourse, it's there, too. If you're looking for slice-of-life stuff, here it is. This movie has it all. And it's a damn fine story, as well. As stupid and disgusting as this film had the potential to be, it is a compliment to Forman and his crew that turned out to be such a masterpiece. And I don't use that word lightly Also playing in rotation right now on the A&E cable channel is a biogra- phy of Larry Ffynt, which tells you some details that the film leaves out.

He was. of course, writing in a time when poets did this very odd thing with their poetry, a thing which, sadly is overlooked these days: they read their poems aloud. To audiences. These davs poets don't read their poetry- very often, or when they do, the readings go relatively unno- ticed, except by other poets of course. Most i people consider poetry a thing to be read quietly in lit- erature class and also a thing for intel- lectuals, a highbrow aspect of litera- ture that involves a good deal of mis- understanding and is not very much fun either. But, if Pope is right (and I might get into a bit of trouble with a few- professors if I say he wasn't), then perhaps poetry might be better understood when it is heard. Recentlv. there has been a bit of a renewed interest in poetry reading. Bill Movers produced the documen- tary The Ijngucige of Ije, which fea- tured modern poets reading their own work. The Nuyorcian Poets Cafe has been one of the many small groups of poets involved in bringing attention to performance poetry with their anthology entitled Aloud! Even in North Carolina poets are starting to make their voices known. Vheville. Chapel Hill and other cities have poetry teams that compete in cutthroat readings called "slams. .And just this past New Year's Eve, Raleigh held a poetry reading as a part of its First Night celebration, which featured some very brilliant poetry by Jonathan Williams. Jay Sullivan, and a fellow who was introduced as "Bvron Since this revival is gaining strength and speed, it is no wonder that Rhino records released this anthology, entitled In Their Own Voices: A Century of Recorded Poetry. The anthology consists of four CDs and a book which begins with Walt Whitman and moves right on up to modern poets such as Li-Young Lee. As the title suggests, the poets them- selves read their works. The set includes nearly eighty poets reading well over a hundred works. The variety in the set is wonderful and refreshing. Any student of litera- ture will have noticed the annoying tendency of anthologies to exclude certain types of poetry or certain poets, due to the bias of the editors. Whether because the producers of this set were very open-minded or because thev just wanted to have a good-sized boxed set, this anthology- ranges from the very popular poets (Ogden Nash, Robert Frost), to the talented but unconventional (Charles Bukowski, Leonard Cohen), to the brilliant but not-yet-famous (Li- Young Lee, Joseph Brodsky). The pleasant surprise of the inclu- sion of some of the 19th-century poets like Walt Whitman and William Butler Yeats is downright cool, espe- cially since it's pretty awe-aspiring to think about Whitman recording "America" on Edison's wax-record phonograph way back in the day. 1o hear Whitman reading one of his sig- nature pieces only two years before his death brings chill bumps to the skin, an experience similar to hearing John Lcnnon sing "Free as a Bird The performances themselves are fascinating. To hear the spooky way e.e. cummings reads "anyone lives in a prettv how town or to discover that Lawrence Ferlenghetti had a slight lisp, or to sense the frustration in Allen Ginsberg's voice when he reads his "America" all add new dimensions to the poems and the poets. There is alwavs the worry that hearing the poets read might take away from the poem and from the poet, but this is not the case. The emotion contained in Langston Hughes' "the Negro Speaks of Rivers" is even more pro- nounced when Hughes reads. The book included with the CDs is an added bonus. Anthology com- mentaries are oftentimes academic to a point of silliness, and the inane way boxed sets are presented is sometimes unbelievable. But this book is well done. It includes only a few of the obligatory essays, and they are all entertaining as well as informative. The book also includes an hysterical svnopsis of poetry terms and tools from the book Could be Verse: Anybody's Cuide to Poetry by John Timpane. The Guide is actually quite helpful (read the four definitions ot "irony" and see why Alanis Morrissette's song isn't ironic at all). 1 even picked up a few new vocabulary words myself (I'll never tell you which ones). The only problem 1 find with this anthology is the notable absence ot anything by T.S. Eliot, who has record- ed' his poems, and the obnoxious inclusion of fad-poet Maya Angelou. She reads about as insipidly as she writes, but the good thing is that this is on CD and 1 can program the track out of my player. Aside from these two (minor) flavs. The collection is teally well done, very informative and enjoyable. The people who put this thing togeth- er had their heads screwed on straight. which is a genuine relief because it could have been a disaster. But it isn't a disaster.

(919) 321-1700 Dale Williamson assistant lifestyle editor The Smashing Pumpkins have had mixed blessings late- ly. They started out in high gear with the release of their 1995 double CD album Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness, which climbed the charts and became a best- selling hit. . Trouble arose when the band became entangled in a situation that resulted in their keyboard player becoming a victim of a drug overdose. Jimmy Chamberlain, the band's drummer, had a struggling history with drug addiction and was believed cured. Unfortunately, Chamberlain eventually gave in to his addiction and was asked to leave Smashing Pumpkins for good, forcing a delay on the band's highly publicized tour. Time heals all wounds, and Smashing Pumpkins let time work its magic. They found a new drummer and began their tour. They were back in high gear. As if to prove that they are stronger than ever, Smashing Pumpkins recently released a CD box set that highlights their singles from Mellon Collie, but it also offers much, much more. Instead of filling their collec- tion with one top 40 hit after another, this box of joy, entitled The Aeroplane Flies High, is spiced with many b- sides as well as several tracks that are to be found no where else, making this a must for any die-hard Pumpkins fanatic. Tb be precise, the boxed see contains all the singles thus far released from Mellon CoOt, 28 b-sides not found on Mellon Collie, 12 of which were previously unreleased. Also included are five cover songs that are available only in this collection and a 44-page book filled with song lyrics and rare photos. All in all, this collection contains over 100 minutes of hard-to-find music. And if that isn't enough, the box itself is a sturdy, portable, compact case emblazoned with a hypnotizing black-and-white spiral design. . The project is the brain child of Smashing Pumpkins lead singer and mastermind Billy Corgan, along with assistance from Frank Olinsky, who also served as the col- lection's an director and designer. Judging from the qual- ity of tracks chosen for the collection and the appealing graphics included within the book, Corgan and company obviously saw this as a worthwhile effort. Tb use a Gen X expression, it reeks of effort. Anyone familiar with the Pumpkins sound knows that they flip-flop from mellow and mystical to hard-edged and distorted. Most of the tracks included tend to lean more toward the mellow sound, so those preferring a more rough than smooth sound may be disappointed. Still, several tracks exemplify the anger for which Smashing Pumpkins is famed. The Pumpkins' hit singles "Bullet with Butterfly Wings" and "Zero" are both here in their angered glory. But Corgan and company don't always express anger through loud, distorted guitar riffs or pounding drums, and, to be honest, it's not their anger that makes Smashing Pumpkins worth listening to. It's their willing- ness to experiment. , Songs like "The Boy" incorporate simple lyncal refrains ("I can't stop 1 can't breathe 1 can't think I'm in love again") with such an energetic and fun musical beat that one doesn't care if this innocent pop tune is from the same band renowned for such songs as "God" where Corgan bitterly sings, "God knows I'm helpless to speak on my own behalf God is as helpless as me caught in the negatives In many ways, the Smashing Pumpkins arc an enigma; you can't simply label them as one kind of band or anoth- er. It's hard to simplify any band that will do a cover of a Cars song ("You're all I've got tonight"), a tender, acoustic version of a song originally powered by heavy studio technology ("Tonight, Tonight") and a sound mix totaling over 25 distorted minutes of nothing but guitar riffs and feedback ("Pastichio Medley"). Despite a difficult year, the Smashing Pumpkins have managed to pull through and prove that they are still one of the music industry's greatest talents. If this new boxed sampling is any indication as to the Pumpkins' willingness to continue on their experimental track, then this is one band That is going to continue to fry high into the future of music.

HALLE SENIOR WRITER Oh yes, he shook you. And now he shakes you again. The notorious Snoop Doggy Dogg. a.k.a. Calvin Broadus. is back again with his most entertaining recording to date. Although his respectful days of being with the doctor brought him huge amounts of fame, the next step he took seems to be paying off. With a rags to riches success story nipping at his heels, it's hard for Snoop Dogg not to be overshadowed by his past. However, with no murder conviction in hand and a phat new Rolls Royce, the Dogg Fbund is back in business. Tha Doggfather opens up with a group of reporters talking, going from one extreme to the next. "Rapper Snoop Doggy Dogg seems to be spending more time in the courtroom than on the stage says one voice. It's almost as if he set the reporters up to take a fall the same way they set him up. As the album continues, it takes the tone of a more influential, more upbeat rhythm.

First take a heaping helping of Rusted Root. Then add a small portion of Blues Traveler and top with a touch of The Allman Brothers Band. Simmer on low for about six years and you get Law Of Nature. Of course, these aren't the real influences that made Law Of Nature what they are. When the band formed six years ago, no one knew who Blues Traveler and Rusted Root were. However, those are the bands that most resemble the roots rock ensem- ble of Law Of Nature on their second album. Afore. With a line-up of three guys and two girls, gie band can call on a large number of vocal arrangements, but opt instead to leave the singing to the two girls. The main singer is Jennifer Knight, but on a couple of songs bassist Karen Estill takes over the microphone. This has an effect much like the duo vocals of the Indigo Girls, SEE NATURE.

As far as the music goes, Law Of Nature doesn't experiment much. Instead they go for what they know. More is a collection of ten acoustic- based, upbeat and light-hearted songs that get better as the album progress- es. The first song, "Easiest Thing left me wondering if this wasn't anoth- er run-of-the-mill indie band that could rock but couldn't sing. Something about Knight's voice took a little getting used to. "Carolina the second song, prompted me to quickly change my mind. With music that bet- ter fit Knight's range, "Carolina" achieved the laid-back whimsical sound that the band seemed to be try- ing for. However, don't be fooled into thinking that Law Of Nature is just another acoustic hippie group that has one sound for ten songs. The band shows some different colors on the songs "What is This?" and "Better On Our Own Bringing in elements of funk, these songs call on Estill to sing her way through jammy, jazz-influ- enced songs that provide welcome contrast to Knight's peppy acoustical sound. Then on songs like "Train Song" and "More Knight contrasts herself while following the soaring and diving sound of the music. Together they weave a musical quilt that exudes har- mony. All in all, Law Of Nature seems to have their act together. The female vocals give them a sound that provides welcome change to the grunge-infest ed world of music today. The band' holds their own with extended jams on songs like "Sun" and "As Dark As You while remaining a tight unit throughout the album. The only prob lem with Law Of Nature is that they, are still on an independen label. Which means that if you plan to pickr this one up you may find yourself hav ing to special order it for now Hopefully, some smart label will pick them up soon.

On the record you'll hear Snoop make references to children and how they shouldn't walk down his path. He almost paints himself like the devil. This is rather cheesy. Everybody knows who he is, the message he sends, and the aura he presents. By adding something like this to his record, it diminishes his image in a few ways. It's almost as if his enemy is truly his conscience. There are over 20 songs on this album. It's impressive, but how long f It's TOURNAMENT TIME at Mendenhall Student Center!

A few guest appearances, such as Too Short on track ten, make the album more alive, and a equal amount of bizarre effects takes you out of the constant drag that is the Oogg ftund. Tha Doggfather does happen to include a track that is a bit out of the ordinary called "Freestyle Conversation And it is nothing but that. Not only does Snoop allow time for rhythmic patterns in a conversa- tional style, the man actually talks over the rhythm. He doesn't stop. It's almost like he laid his vocal track down in the studio first, after which the music was mixed in. This album seems to be a progres- sion from Snoop's last. First he was drinking "Gin and Juice now he's "Sippin' on some Cognac It's no doubt that the rap star has placed himself at the top of the charts. He presents himself in a way like no other. What Snoop gives to rap is a sense of stardom and a promise of a tomor- row. With music rapidly changing, it's hard to stay in the lead. Lucky for Snoop, he's a dog; he knows how to stay alert and keep his eyes open at all times.

The ski machine was donated by The Bicycle Post. Probably the most publicized event of the week was scheduled for Wednesday night in the outdoot pool - yes, the outdoor pool - for the Polar Bear Party. The featured event was "A Dip with the Dean" where Dean Ron Speier bared his legs to lead others in braving the arc- tic waters in the pool. These chartered Polar Bear members earned a t-shirt, a chance to win a VCR, and some hot chocolate. Completing the week's events will be a mini-tournament tonight from 6-8 p.m. Tournament play will include basketball, rac- quetball. wallyball and a wheelchair basketball game. If you want to show off your hidden tal- ents or just get out and play to your heart's content, come to the Sports Courts area to sign up. A root beer "keg" party, complete with munchies, will be held at the Center Court juice bar during tournament play. And the event the entire community has been waiting for, the SRC open house, will be held from 2-4 p.m. on Sunday. This is designed to provide members of the Greenville commu- nity with an opportunity to see what the facil- ity is like. Refreshments will be provided and tours of the center will be conducted, so please come join the celebration at the Center �"�" Thsriday. Jinmry 16. 1997 opinion Th� East Carolinian oumew The long holiday break is over and you know what that means. The start up of class- es, the hassles of changing your schedule around and the joy of buying textbooks. Now if you haven't used up all your Christmas money it's a good thing because you'll need it for those books. As we all know at ECU you have two choices when it comes to buying books. You can go to UBE, or the student book- store. And with only two places to purchase these books, you can bet that you're not going to get a great deal on prices. We at TEC hear complaints that match our own of how the prices of books seem to be outrageous and what, is worse you don't see very much of that money come back into your pockets at the end of the semester when you sell the books back. The on campus bookstore will buy your book back at half of the original price you bought it for and then turn GUEST around and sell it back for three-fourths the original price. What this means is a 25 percent mark up. That may seem like a large mark up to the students, but the manager of the bookstore says that they barely break even because of overhead costs like bills and workers salaries. But don't blame it all on the bookstore. The publish- ers have some say so in what the prices are to be set at. While we understand the need for them to cover their costs, it seems to us that the students still shell out a large chunk of money for some books they may only use once during the semester. What would be nice is if the students had an alterna- tive to the book stores in which they could sell back their books and buy them for a price that was more feasible to them. UNC-Chapel Hill has a program similar to that. They have a place run by a student organization on cam- pus that sets up an area where students can set their own prices on books and other students can come in and buy those books if they want. That student would get most of the profit while rhe rest might go the organiza- tion. Now the program is much more detailed than this, but the idea does spark some interest. Nobody could say if the idea would fly here, but instead of complaining, a pro- gram could be set up to help combat these prices that seem to be out of the stu- dents reach. Nobody has extra money laying around these days, and most of us are penny pinch- ers. It seems ridiculous to pay the amount of money we do for books but isn't that what college is ail about? It teach- es us that life is one large dol- lar sign, and that nothing comes cheap. opinion! Eye of the Beholder Anthony SLAOE What is the meaning of ugly? wanders to things like cranberry sauce . . u t n A �I UII.r TkAn4i Kyvrk k�V rV Some of my colleagues and I were discussing what is "ugly this weekend. W: thought that ugly is an opinion. So, keep- ing that, in mind, wc decided to look it up in vfebster s New World dictionary- Third College Edition. The book has four definitions for ugh. . Each of the four uses words like unpleasant, aestheti- cally offensive and repulsive. Now, each of those "defining" words is just about as vague as the one in question. So, a lit- tle back-tracking was necessary. It was found that both of the previous editions of the same dictionary defined ugly as "the opposite of beauty Ahhh, well now everything was much clearer! In a boo of definitions, we got opinions. Granted, definitions are based on consensus of opinion . But what is the consensus on ugly? . . Certainty, we college students can come up with a bet- ter idea of what ugly is than the aforementioned. Now, I'm not going to lie and say that I have never said that so & so was ugly Judgmental as it is, it is sometimes unavoidable. But as I get elder, I start to realize that passing that kind of judgment is myopic and crass. (Boy, do you ever feel like life is just one big 12-step group?) So, how do wc come up with a definition for ugh that is not only politically correct, but has sound and fair reason behind it? Well, it has to be an objective term, but at the same time it has to be cut and dry. We don't want any gray matter here, that just wouldn t be fair. What about anything perceptual that induces immediate vomiting? No, no, too messy Okay, how about something that causes physiological, visceral, or psycholog- ical discomfort? Nah, too Freudian. Got it! Any animal, veg- etable, mineral, or sound that drives you to a point of delir- ium where you want to crawl back into your mothers womb? Nope, definitely way too Oedipal. This is sad. If I try to sit back and think of something ugly, my mind �� - �.� -Juce and Tommy, the grade school bully. Though both have points that make me "feel" a certain emotion that I associate with ugly, each still has facets that I could deem worthwhile. For example, my mom knows that I don't like cranberry sauce, so she does- n't bother asking me if I want some. Moreovei; Tommy may have tripped me a lot getting on the bus, but at least he's in jail now. So, when it comes to a few random things that I find "ugly" I have alternate feelings that make them not so "aesthetically offensive What is so troubling, is that I know this word exists, and so does a definition behind it. But, I can't seem to find the ideal example of it. Why is that? Maybe, and I'm just expos- tulating (SAT word), the word can appropriately be thought of as a passing of judgment. Judgment is defined in one way as "an opinion or estimate Ah, my point us coming to a head! What is an opinion? Opinion is defined as "a belief not based on absolute certainty or positive knowledge but on what seems true, valid, or probable to one's own mind There you have it! With a little bit of rea- soning and logic we find that "ugly" is a relative term. Meaning that it is no way based in fact. You cannot show someone something that is ugly. Point being, that I'm tired of everyone labeling some- thing in a negative way. The word ugh doesn't permeate a good feeling in the person who uses it, nor in the object of that harsh judgment. Now, I'm not some whacked-out hir pie looking for Utopia, I'm just sick of thinking that things arc ugly Because when I think ugly thoughts, I feel ugly, and I'm simply running out of the valium that gets my mind off the subject. . . Ultimately, I'd like to leave you with one last definition. Judgmental: "judgments considered to be lacking in tolep- ance, compassion, and objectivity So, what kind of human being are you? ' How does television convey the real meaning of Christmas? I was Christmas shopping, my self of course, looking for a Christmas album to get me into the spirit of the season. What I found changed mv entire out- look on Christmas, notr�rg. Ifeah, I found albums like Jire Cats and Grandma Got Runover by Reindeer, I even found one called The Cryptkeeper's Christmas where HBOs Cryptkeeper sangUsongs like "Deck the halls with parts of Charlie What happened to Christmas? When I was a child, I waited for each Christmas season with much anticipation. Christmas to me was the most magical thing on the earth. There were shows on television that weren't on any other time of the year like "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer "Frosty the snowman" and Twas the night before Christmas I would plop my little self down four feet from the television and gaze at the animated figures as they showed me what Christmas is really about. Or did they? Is Christmas based on a reindeer with a red nose and an island of misfit toys? Or is it based on a magic man made of snow that melts and becomes the spirit of Christmas? I don't think so. If tv-�- TV shows aren't about Christmas, then what are they about? Have you heard of people called "New Ager? New Agers are the people who made Star Trek and the people who put humans on a shelf with God, or just try to take God off the shelf. The real sin a New Agers is that they take their poisoned ideals and candy-coat them so one has no idea what they are doing. They have effectively taken the "Christ" out of Christmas, replaced it with the symblol of our Generation "X" and turned our sacred holiday into X-mas. How could we have let them take the birth of our Lord away from us? How did they do it? By attacking on all sides. First, they attack u� with TV Christmas specials and even create TV commercials implying Christmas is a sate of mind, not the birth of our savior. Then, they got on radio. There are several songs like "Here comes Santa Claus Then we got it where it.hurts: ele- mentary school education. Children sing "Jolly Old St. Nicholas It's funny when people can't say that there's Santa Claus on TV because it'll ruin the child's "ego but parents everywhere let those TV shows tell our kids that a deer, a snowman and a fat man in a red suit have taken the place of baby Jesus and Mary. The only Christmas special that I will let my children ever watch is "Merry Christmas Charlie Brown The characters in the show struggle to work together to put on a play about the birth of Christ. Along the way, they find out what the story is really about. Chuck felt sorry for the poor little Christmas tree because nobody would pick it, then everyone com- plains because the tree wasn't lavish enough. The main Christmas story kids should be learning is the one in Luke, Chapter 2- "And it came to pass in those day, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be taxed Have an opinion about current issues?
