THURSDAY MARCH 20. 1997 man EAST CAROLINA UNIVERSITY GREENVILLE. NORTH CAROLINA ECU Medical students meet their matches "Match Day" finally for fourth year students ANGELA KOENIC HEALTH ENVIIIOHVIENTAI ISSt ES s r r f w RIT t At Match Dav ceremonies across the country Wednesday approximately 16.000 foutth year medical students gathered to learn the fate of their next four years. Senior students at ECU'S School of Medicine gathered in Brody Auditorium to learn where they will complete their residencies. "This is a big day for them (students). It's like going from high school to college said Tom Former, director of the Medical Center News and Information Bureau. Dr. Ann Jobe. senior associate dean for the School of Medicine, agreed. Deadline for London summer program extended Students have until the end of March to apply JA.CQ1 EL1NI D. KK l.l.lIM "There's going to be a lot of energy in Brodv Auditorium as students find out where they're going Jobe said before the ceremony. "I liken it to getting married, only you don t know who's going to be at the end of the altar. Senior Cordi Rjwell was ecstatic when she received her placement at Pitt County Memorial Hospital. "It was my number one choice Rjwcll said. "Match is like the NBA Draft. You're finding out where you're going for the next four vears of your life After completing four vears of medical school, graduates must complete at least three years of residency in their specialty area. Residencies for certain specialties can take as many as nine vears to complete. Match Day is the dav when students across the country- receive their placements beginning at 12 p.m. eastern standatd time. "On May 9 at the university commence- ment they (students) become doctors but can't practice independentlv until after their residencies, jobe said. During students' senior years they submit applications to the institutions where the would like to complete their residencies. The applications are then reviewed b the contact- ed hospitals, who select which students will be interviewed. After the interviews, the panel of hospital officials ranks the students in order of prefer- ence to fill available residency positions. The students also rank the hospitals in which thev wouid like to work. They can rank as many as 15 schools. These rankings are sent to the National Resident Matching 1'rogram in Washington. D.C. where by computer the students are matched with hospitals. "The computer goes through potential matches and matches the highest program they (students) want and highest institutions that wanted them Jobe said. Tuesday was I n-Match Day. On this day students who had not been matched received a phone call notifying them of this. The unmatched students received a book listing all the programs with residency positions avail- able. The students then had to call the pro- grams and find a position for themselves. 1 his is known as the "scramble According to Jobe. the medical school holds career development sessions for students, helping them to plan their fourth year of med- ical school and information on preparing appli- cations and interviews. "The largest amount of help comes in the form of one-on-one counseling with advisers in the specialty areas students plan to pursue Jobe said. This vear 6H percent of students at ECl were placed at their first choice and K2 percent were placed at one of their top three choices. Fourth sear medical student I.onnie Lassiter gives credit to ECU for his success in placement. "I give a lot of credit to Fast Carolina Lassiter said.

T4MA found living in cava finds a home OCALA, Fla. (AP) � A 1-year-old who was forced to live in a cave after his rather lost his job and his mother kicked him out has found a home and a family willing to take care of him until he's able to live on his own. Cliff Mfclry had been surviving on handouts and whatever food he could find until his story attracted national attention. The couple who took Wfelty in over the weekend wants to remain anony- mous, but say they offered their help because it was the right thing to do. Jvelty will be staying in a one-bedroom apartment connected to the main house � an arrangement he's quite happy with. Afelty was whisked away to New York last week to tape an appearance on the Montel Williams show. He's also been offered movie deals and book con- tracts. Welty lived with his father for most of his life, but they both ended up liv- ing out ofa car after the man lost his job just before Thanksgiving. The fiither sent him to live with his mother, but the teen said he was kicked out after two weeks. Welty returned to Ocaia in January, but his father had left town and the only place he could think of going was a cave he played in years earlier.

WHO announces breakthrough in tuberculosis BERLIN (AP)-The globai tuberculosis epidemic is leveling off for the firsr time in decades because ofa new treatment strategy that haa trained health care workers to make sure patients take rheir medication, the World Health Organisation said today But Russia and other former Soviet bloc countries, which have yet to fully adopt the method, have seen a TB explosion in recent years that threatens alt of Europe, WHO officials said. Tuberculosis, the worid'a top infectious killer, is spread through coughing and sneeamg and can be highly contagious. Although effective and aflbttkbk drugs have been available since the 1930s, they generally must be taken for six to eight months. Many patients, eapecia in poorer countries, atop taking them as seen at they begin to feel better because of the inconvenience or to save money That slows thestranger TO prmstr�t resisted the initial drag onslaught �reproduce, making k harder, if not impossible, to cure later. The problem is becoming especially bad in eastern Europe, where TB �� had been on tie decline, WHO officials said. CHAPEL HILL (AP) - Wanted: Candid couples willing to open their sex lives to researchers seeking answers to the big question - how effective are condoms? Volunteers get 195 and all the free condoms they can use, but they must be willing to fill out a form every time they have sex. "Wry little is known about the efficiency of the latex condom said Mike Waugh, senior project director for Health Decisions, the Chapel Hill company conducting the six- month clinical trial. Vvaugh said condoms have been around so long they were exempted when the federal government began regulating contraceptives. "And while there is a certain amount of historical information, there is little in the way of clinical triab said Waugh. "What we are doing is trying to evaluate just how well condoms work, in terms of prevention of preg- nancy, when used as the only method of birth control said Dr. Michael Rosenberg, the study's principal investigator. Volunteers are being recruited in Seattle; Phoenix; Birmingham, Ala Memphis, Tenn and the Raleigh- Durham area. Rosenberg said 16S couples have signed up since canvassing for volun- teers began in September, he is looking for 200 more by April. The only comparable study used prostitutes as subjects, Rosenberg said. "I would say ours is the first major study of typical users he said. "Although prostitutes use condoms well and often and, of course, would be highly motivated to do so, they are not really your typical user Study participants must fill out forms after sex, describing how well the condom fit and noting any breaks or slippage. Besides providing free condoms and cash, Health Decisions also is offering the test subjects free Pap smears and free exams for sexually transmitted diseases. Preliminary results have been encouraging; said Rosenberg. "We have a well-motivated group, and the success rates are very very good, comparing favorably to oral contraceptives, he said. Traditionally, condoms have been attributed a 10 to 15 percent failure rate, but this study has so.far shown condoms work better than that Albanian insurgents threaten more unrest if president does not resign TIRANA, Albania (AP) - Insurgents who have taken over a dozen towns in southern Albania warned of more unrest and the speaker of Parliament said he feared a coup by former army officers and secret police if the president refuses to resign.

The anti-government protests began after nearly every Albanian family lost money in shady invest- ment schemes that collapsed in January. In the south, the insurgent National Salvation Council warned of more unrest unless Berisha steps down. If he capitulates, they said, he would be replaced by a committee that includes insurgents. Parliament speaker Pjeter Arbnori said Tuesday the insistence by former army officers and secret police that Berisha resign by Thursday "threatened the constitu- tional order In Italy, authorities promised Tuesday to send back dozens of criminals blending in with the wave of Albanian refugees fleeing to Italy About 9,500 Albanians had crossed the Adriatic Sea to Italy as of Tuesday afternoon, Italian Interior Minister Giorgio Napolitano told the Senate, calling the flow "alarming and difficult to manage Another 3,500 others also have arrived in Greece, according to the U.N.

There will also be other ways for students to reduce costs slightly, such as cooking their own meals in the apartments, which are equipped for meal preparation. "My estimate for the total cost of the program is about $3,500, and that includes the other parts of the program McGowan said. "I recog- nize that that's a lot of money. I wish that there were some way to reduce that. But this program is London, and London is expensive Students interested in this pro- gram can contact McGowan at the International Affairs Office, Taylor in the English department, or Dr. Yuhang Shi in the political ccience department. They would also need to begin applying for their passport, I SIC, and financial aid as soon as possible. While this trip obviously will cost more than attending second sum- mer session at ECU, McGowan says she believes the enrichment offered makes the trip worthwhile. "London is a fantastic city McGowan said. "There's no better place to study the literature that has grown up around London, been written in London, than in London itself.

ECU, Gram. n�5M353 .�KMt�i.tMJ��3M oumcw JrVhat does it mean to be human? In the scope of possible answers there might be mentions of souls and divine creation or per- haps unique sets of genes derived from sexual reproduction. Until recently there was another Mssible answer which belonged only in the realm of science fiction�an answer which was mild- y startling and then we put the book down. With the recent cloning of Dolly the sheep and a monkey, the idea that a human's genes could e scientifically reproduced and replicated in the form of a clone is not far-fetched anymox. Resident Clinton has ordered a ban on federal funding for work leading to a human clone, but hat cannot stop speculation, fear or private research. The ban certainly won't stop people from asking fundamental questions about the ethics of science and what it means to be human. These are questions which even the slightest possibility of human cloning demands to be swered. Who doesn't remember the moment when they first heard the news about Dolly the eep? Did the news source draw the implications that the new science could have on humans did you slowly realize the repercussions of this latest scientific advance? The debate commenced. Rr some the news was as exhilarating as Neil Armstrong's first walk on the moon. Trekkies ndered what Saw Ttrt's writers would come up with next, now that the subject for several isodes was no longer fiction. Animal rights activists joined with human rights activists in blast- g the medical and scientific ethics of cloning animals, let atone humans. People began argu- in public and forums, questioning whether or not a human could ever be replicated. While occurred to some that God had been cut out of the creation process altogether and the nests stories no longer held water, others reasoned that God allowed for all scientific Advances. Immediately after the news was released, people asked unanswerable questions about fpptying the new technology to human beings. Would a clone have a personality identical to its original or could there be instances of a calm person and a wild clone? How could we use clones? liVhat tights would a cloned person have? Who would a clone identify as its family? The President rightfully sensed the confusion, fear and paranoia of a public whose thoughts turned to Frankenstein-type horrors. Understanding that concerns most immediate to this issue such as the ethics of animal cloning and the possible advances enabled by genetic testing of cloned animals needed to be carefully considered, the President enacted the ban and Senate hearings began. Sunday, during a hearing, a law professor raised an interesting question asking the Senate whether or not the first person to clone a human would be put in jaii or awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. Tf is ;s an important time; the findings from the hearings will affect-gov- erning it regulations and these regulations will affect the future of research. It's easy to fear new a- ances and the unknown, especially when the issue at hand has long been the subject of scary science fiction and The Twilight Zone. It is important to consider the research possibilities of these new advances. Scientists have told the hearing committee that research involving clones could result in further breakthroughs in the fields of genetics and in understanding more about terminal diseases. When deciding our position, the editors at TEC first oohed and ahhed over the possibilities of cloning. Then, we shied away from celebrating Dolly and her primate counterpart mostly because of serious ethical concerns for both the cloned animals and potential human clones. We decided that we reflected the general public in being uncertain and grateful for the scientists and politicians who, for the moment, are trying hard to come to a consensus and adopt regulations. Isn't that just like a human to want to control the unknown? Keith OOPER Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was truly a hero and civil rights giant whose accomplishments are being praised many yean after his assassination. King epitomized courage, persever- ance, and the determination to expose racism and discrimination that too often bear their ugly in America. Yet, King was silenced by assassins who wanted to turn Dr. King's dream into an abominable nightmare for mil- lions of politically and economically oppressed African-Americans around the country. Who lulled Dr. King? Did James Earl Ray act alone? Why has Ray been denied a trial? Wfell, I inter- viewed Dr. John Hope Franklin (renowned African-American histori- an) and sought answers to my ques- tions. Many Americans believe that James Earl Ray (near death) deserves a trial to test some of the conspiracy theories about King's assassination. Franklin agrees that Ray deserves a trial. Important information about the assassination has yet to be released. America is more technologically advanced than it was at the time of King's death. Laboratory testing (bal- listics, etc.) should uncover crucial evidence that may shed light on King's murder. When addressing the possibility that the murder was mas- terminded by more than one person. Franklin responded, "I don't know. I'm not satisfied with the way it was adjudicated. I don't think all the facts have come out It is evident that King's telephone had been wiretapped extensively. Moreover, the fact that King's electri- fying, vociferous speeches jolted the nation might suggest that govern- ment officials wanted to silence King. Nevertheless, King's family wants a- sense of closure. America should nor, have to wait until 2020 to receive the, shocking facts about the King nation. "I would say that knowing Ray's background, I'm amazed that he would pull this off alone. It seems to me that he had some assistance Franklin said. I sympathize with how the Kings are agonizing over the slaying of their ? beloved father, sutcsmun and civile rights warrior. Everyone responsible for that man's death should be "bull- whipped" and imprisoned for life. King might be silenced, but his mes- sage will incessantly resonate in hearts of Americans until the "land the free, home of the brave" honors the Biblical command of Isaiah and "let the oppressed go free "0 THF FD.ITOR Critic responds to ipei Scholarly sites not only credible ones lb the Editor, I am writing in response to an arti- cle by David Boraks in TEC's Tuesday, March 4 issue. The article, titled "Check for credibility before you cite a site warned about unreliable web sites and listed tips for choosing the best ones. Borak interviewed Frank Moiinek, a librarian at Davidson College. Moiinek insisted that sites which aren't associated with any gov- ernment or research group are not wor- thy of study or citation. Upon reading this article I ques- tioned the criteria that makes up a legitimate site. Moiinek mentions that web sites should pass the "usual tests" to determine if they are irrefutable. Does this indicate that these tests (however many there are) vary among sites among sites and are not routine? As a researcher, I am very capable of distinguishing trash from well- thought-out concepts. This assump- tion that students are not able to "sift the good from the bad" (assuming there's a difference) underestimates us. Like most of us, I have been ana- lyzing facts on research papers for years; if the data is doubtful, I reflect that in my report. Why should students rely solely on material gathered in "scholarly jour- nals as Moiinek suggests? Is the brain capacity of those researchers larger than that of mine or yours? Absolutely not. (When Fred Smith, an average col- lege student, developed the Federal Express system, his professor laughed at him.) It is important to recognized all individual sites as potentially bene- ficial. If we are limited to those that are authorized (by the chosen ones), than well restrict ourselves to the good ol' card catalog again. I feel like the extensive advantages in accumulating knowledge that the WWW offers to me are being hindered. Giselle Santiago Researcher R.T.R lb the Editor, I am writing in response to the let- ter "Manager responds to critic" that was printed in the March 6 edition of TEC I am the critic to whom Mr. Edwards responded, and I'd like to have a chance to answer some of his accusations. First of all, Paul, I never received the letter you say you sent directly to me. I have no control over, nor can I respond to, something I have never seen. Secondly, I can understand why you would be upset with what I said in my Feb. 25 Scream at the MM column, enti- tled "You get what you pay for down- town I expected it. Criticism is often a hard thing to take, especially if much of it is true. But I didn't actually set out in my article to attack you, your club or the bands you manage. What I wanted to do was tell those readers of TEC, who had complained to me about how bad the musk scene in Greenville is, that they should stop complaining and do something to change it. Namely, that they should take their money away from Greenville and stop supporting the mediocre choice that is provided for us here. In fact, you seem to agree with me, Paul. In your letter you state that your band, "hope that, by example, other bands will develop here and make this the thriving music scene that ir has the potential to be That means that the music scene here isn't thriving now, it only has the potential to be, which is exactly my point. Thank you for mak- ing it so clearly. But seriously, I find it hard to take any of your opinions at face value. You manage several local bands and you have a prominent nightclub in Greenville. In fact, much of your letter reads like an advertisement for both. You are paid to like the local music scene. You would be hurt financially if people took their money elsewhere, like I suggest they da Therefore, your opinion is unfairly biased. I, on the other hand, am not paid to like or dislike the local musk scene, nor does my paycheck depend on its success or nilure. And no guilt trip from you, nor infantile attacks involv- ing fast food and toilet paper; are going to change my mind. However, I am open to having a dia- logue with you about it. Your idea of having an open forum on WZMB sounds great. Anything to further bet- ter communication and create possibil- ittcs is always welcome. Since it was your idea, why don't you set up a time with WZMB that is convenient for you and I will be there. In the meantime, I suggest .that we ask all the reading public who are inter- ested in joining this debate, to contact one or both of us and tell us what they think. I can be reached at The East QmMm and I believe, Paul, you can be reached at Peasant's Cafe. Don't be shy, people, let Paul and Skippy know how you fed.

Fr Q SophQ JrQ Srrj Phone number Topic(s) about which I would like to write. lb the Editor, I would like to address Mr. Richard White and the article he wrote which appeared in TEC on Thursday, February 27, 1997.1 know everyone has an opinion, but to be as misguided and uneducated as he is a shame. Now, I am guessing when I say that Mr. White is Caucasian, but am not guessing when I say he knows nothing about ebonies. Instead of criticizing articles, he should read up on the topics and be educated when he dares to bash it or call it ridiculous. Just to touch briefly on the homo- sexual topk, Mr. White, are you say- ing that we Christians should hate people who choose to date their same sex? If this is so, let us put the shoe on the other foot. Let's say you were the "sinner wouldn't you coo be ral- lying for the rights of homosexuals? I'm sure you would be. As for the part where Mr. Gabriel Johnson says that "we all have homosexual tenden- cies I just don't read that far between the lines to see this. I find your information untrust- worthy and biased. It is because of people like yourself that hate begins. People like you, Mr. White, can justi- fy why Rodney King was beaten half to death. What kind of world are you living in when you think that beating an unarmed black man is "the police doing their job?" No, that is the Klan doing their job. I do, however, think that you are right about one thing and one thing onfy, most black people do think that whites are racist. I bet you don't even know why. You probably just think that it is all made up. Please allow me to tell you � hy we feel this way. Look on our very own East Carolina University campus and the situation with the ECU Housekeepers Association. Can V ou justify a supervisor call a worker a nigger? I bet that is OK, huh? Well, let me make it plain for you, no human being should be treated like trash, no matter what job they do. Blacks arc always looked upon as being "evil" and wrong The only rea- son I think Nicky Nichols said this to this black person was because she thought she wculd get away with it just like most white people do with any other wrong-doing to a black per- son. I, as an African-American female. will not sec that happen. I think the worker should receive a public apolo- gy from Ms. Nichols. Vfe were taught to feel ashamed because we aren't white. If you do nor feel this is so, please look at the news. All there ever is on the news about black people is the negative aspects, not very often the positive. Why is that, you ask? This nation could not stand for .African- Americans to rise so they keep us divided, the poor, the middle class and the upper middle class. The media does not come to our neigh- borhood unless there is a crime or a drug bust. If that does not convince you, Mr. White, nothing will. In closing, I would like to ask the people that agree with Mr. White to please put aside some of the things you were taught about black people and our history and see things as they are and not what someone dresses it up to be. I would also like to add sup- port the ECU Housekeeper!7 Association, you owe it to them.

Mtrch 20. 1997 The East Carolinian Paul Taylor's company dances into Wright Auditorium ANDY Tl'RNER SFNIOH WKITFH Dance deity ftiul Taylor will bring his celebrated dance company, Taylor 2, to campus on Saturday. Fwr anyone interested in modern dance, Taylor 2 offers a great chance to see the work of the man many consider the king of modern dance. The event, part of the S. Rudolph Alexander Performing Arts Series, is scheduled to begin at 8 p.m. in Wright Auditorium. Advance tickets for the show are $12 for ECU faculty and staff, $7 for ECU students and youths, and $15 for the general public. All tick- ets are $15 at the door. Taylor 2 has received consider- able praise from critics and audi- ences since its inception in 1993. The company was formed to bring modern dance to smaller venues that could not accommodate Taylor's main dance company, which has played to audiences for more than 40 years. Reaching audiences that have not had much exposure to the modem dance "experience" is part of the company's goals. In accor- dance with this goal, the company completed a tour of six African nations in 1994 and taught 80 mas- ter classes throughout the New York City Public School System during the 1995- school year. Thirteen dancers make up Taylor 2. Linda Hodes, director of the Paul Taylor School, also serves as director of Taylor 2. Hodes has worked with Taylor for more than 30 years. Hodes has attempted to offer a wide array of Taylor's choreog- raphy. The company's repertoire comes from a number of Taylor's more popular works: Aureole, Duet, 3 Epitaph, Junction and Profiles, as well as Airs, Arden Court and Company B. Taylor has been a key figure in dance for four decades, racking up countless awards and praise. Newsweek calls him "the world's greatest living choreographer Taylor's awards include three Guggenheim Fellowships, a Mac- Arthur Foundation Fellowship and a National Medal of Arts. He's even been recognized as royalty; the French government elected Taylor to knighthood, giving him a "Chevalier de I'Ordrc des Arts et des Lettres" in 1969. Since then, the French government has promoted Taylor to the ranks of Officier and Commandeur. The wonderful work of this knight and dancer will be on dis- play Saturday night for your view- ing and listening pleasure. For additional information, call the Central Ticket Office at 328-4788 or at 328-4735 for hear- ing or speech impaired access. The Central Ticket Office is open Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. The Taylor 2 dance company will be appearing on campus in Wright Auditorium at 8 p.m. Saturday night PHOTO COURTESY OF THE S RUDOLPH ALEXANDER PERFORMING ARTS ERIES review Stern crushes all competition with his Private Parts JAY MYERS LIFESTYLE EDITOR �� I if you don't know who Howard Stern B by now, you must have been living inder a rock for the last 15 years. $tern refers to himself as the "King of All Media" and that title is truly Mot far off the mark. Besides being America's number one radio person- ality, Stern also conquered the Rational best-seller lists with not One, but two outrageous autobiogra- phies. Private Parts and Miss America. Those two feats would be amaz- ing accomplishments for most indi- viduals, but not for Stern. After the nationwide release of his new film. Private Parts (based on his first book), on March 7, Stern conquered yet another area of pop culture when the movie went to number one at the box office. As if that wasn't enough, 'he soundtrack to Private Parts went to number one on the record charts as well. Stern is having his cake and eating it, too. And the funniest thing about all of this is he deserves it. Stern is the quintessential American performer. He began his meteoric rise to the top by deciding to go against convention and just be himself. Along the way, good or bad, he has stayed true to that conviction. He has pulled no punches, has made no apologies, has hidden nothing about who he is. This unabashedly truthful point of view seems to work. Stern's explo- rations into lesbianism, his obsession about penis size and his painfully honest retellings of his personal life with his wife Alison have won him more fans than enemies in his long, illustrious career. There seems to be no stopping Stern, especially if he continues his exploration of self in greater and greater terms. That is what makes the new film so exciting and vibrant. Private Parts shows a Stern that few have known up to this point. To discuss the plot of the film is somewhat of a self- defeating process, so I'll try to sum up the premise and leave it at that. Stern meets a woman on an airplane who obviously is turned off by what little she knows of his public per- sona. During the course of the flight, Stern tells the woman (and, by default, the audience) his life story. In fact, my only complaint with the film is that the narrative ends in 1985. More than likely. Stern is sav- ing the next 12 years for a sequel. Finally, we all end up with a much greater understanding of (and I would say respect for) Stern and his genius. Although I can't tell you anything else about the plot without ruining 'the story for you, what I can tell you is that the performances in this film arc astounding. Stern handles his acting debut with aplomb, never causing that loss of belief that can often leave an audience bewildered. In fact. Stern is so compelling that it's a wonder that he never tried his "King of all Media" Howard Stern wows the world by sharing his most private part - his heart. Stern stars as himself with Mary McCormack playing his wife Alison.

Two of Stern's cronies, Fred Norris and Robin Quivers, also turn in strikingly hon- est performances, with Norris often acting as a comedic scene-stealer. However, all of this pales in compari- son to what is truly the most astound aspect of this film. It is a love story. No, really. In fact, it's a great love story. I can't go into details, but suffice to say that Stern's disclosure of his private iife with his wife Alison (won- derfully portrayed by Mary McCormack), is often brutally hon- est and the Sterns have had to weather some really bad times during their stormy but passionate relation- ship. Despite the many exploitative moments in which Stern talks about sex, drugs, sex, rock n' roll and sex, it is the on-screen passion between Stern and McCormack, the story of Stern's relationship with Alison, that truly lights up the screen. For those of you who love Howard Stern, if you haven't already gone to see Private Parts - go now. For those of you who haven't made up your mind whether you hate Stern or not, and even for those of you who have, I would encourage you to give this film a shot. You may be as surprised as I was to find out that Stern's most private part is not his genitalia, but instead his heart. CD reviews Medeski, Martin andU2 Wood Shack-manPOP John Davis STU'K WK1TKR Derek T. Halle SF.NIOR WRITER "What's on the menu for this evening, sir?" A little of the old play-by-play perhaps. Let's see, track one starts off with a little jazz bass accompanied by some sort of fusion. The drums are a sheer complement. Oh, did I mention that we're lis- tening to Medeski, Martin and Wood, which is probably one of the fastest growing movements on the alterna- tive radio chart today? It's very hard to go into detail about the meanings to these tracks because there aren't any vocals. It's all one big phat jam. Enjoy the groove. The second song on Shack-man is called "Think It sounds like some- thing Phish would do, but due to the area of musical instruments that they're working with, it sounds a bit more concentrated. The band is composed of drums, upright bass and keyboards. It's hard to believe how huge the sound is with such a closely knit organization. 1 guess it all works out before the end. The third track on the record is the most impressive. "Dracula to be precise, is the name and the sound. Not spooky, but seductive to the extreme. It opens with a breath from the upright bass. A lonely breath indeed. Thank you Chris Wood. The next track is a bit upbeat. It's called "Bubblehouse" and has a groove, like the rest, which shows just the right amount of repetition. However, when the music gets tighter, it gets faster and faster, and the band just runs away. One of the most exciting aspects of MMW is how well the notes are accented. This is due to the impecca- ble timing of drummer Billy Martin. This kid knows his high-hat well enough to cut time rather than split it. You wouldn't believe the array of percussion that surrounds his drum- set. We're talking pots and pans, peo- ple. After researching the Web while listening to the album, I got stuck on another song, "Spy Kiss 1 don't know- exactly where this one is coming from (or any of them for that matter), but what I do know is that it's infectious, addictive, and powerful. The rhythm and soul will leave you checking the album cover for skin color. White boys with soul? In every band, there usually comes a leader, someone who shines above the rest in songwriting glory. Not in this band, baby. Each member has his own style and becomes the music himself. However, when you're talking melody, you're talking about John Medeski, a freakshow keyboard player who found his groove in this New York band. His ability to overplay in some spots is amazing. Only his streaks of silence are better. For instance, when the other two seem to be doing their thing, he refrains with a hush of musical sustain. This, in SEE MMW. PAGE !0 Shortly after the release of Battle and Hum, U2's tribute to rock n' roll, the band was crucified by the American media for being "pretentious The sincerity and activism which had won them their large fan base in the '80s was the same sincerity and activism that had led the ever-fickle music media to denigrate them. Realizing that they were at a philosophical and musical crossroads, the band retreated from the public eye for three years. During that time they began to explore the "dark side" of rock n' roll - the lifestyle of toxic rock stars, the plas- ticity of electronic music. .After spend- ing over a year in Berlin, the band pre- sented the music world with Achtung Baby, the first album in their new musi- cal journey to become adventurers in the fast-paced arena of electronic music. Trie album garnered much crit- ical acclaim and five singles from that album dominated both European and American charts. The band embarked on a mam- moth, three-year-long world tour in which they explored and exploited their new image and sound. They recorded their follow-up to Athtung Baby while on tour, and influenced by the music and moods of central Europe at the time, they named it Zooropa. This record was not nearly as popular as Achtung Baby (it sold a measly seven mil- lion copies), but it furthered V2 in their exploration of electronic music. Now, four years after the release of Zooropa, U2 are back, with the latest chapter in their bizarre odyssey. Although the album is called POP, don't let it fool you. There is very little bubblegum on the record, with the possible exception of the album's first single, "Discotheque Rather, the album has more rock n' roll on it than anything since liar, and despite their claims to rock star insincerity, they're actually still the same sincere, earnest U2. (They're being insincere about the fact that they are insincere. Isn't it iron- ic? Don't you think?) While most bands were exploring and riding the coattails of the grunge movement, 112 have been reaching into their inner computers and finding techno-coated treats for themselves and their fans. But the music here more truly deserves the label "alternative" than any second-rate copy of punk (Green Day) or ska (No Doubt). Unlike most, U2 are daring to make music that is either all or none of the above - not quite rock, not quite pop, not quite techno. The album opens with "Discotheque a faux-techno dance number that resembles David Bowie's "John I'm only Dancing" in theme. This is actually a fairly strong track, but it is the weakest song on the album. The energy and emotion that U2 are so good at expressing don't show up until the second song, "Do You reel Loved a screaming industrial-pop song that sets up the mood and theme of the album. Edge's guitar wizardry is evi- dent and powerful.

The past year brought us such literary talents as jay Wright. Rafael Campo. Margaret Randall. Michael Collier and Allan Curganus. I 'nfortunately, all good things must come to an end (at least temporarily). On Monday, March 24, the Writers Reading Series closes out its year with one final talent - Sue Standing. Standing is a scholar in African lit- erature and contemporary American poetry Her poetry weaves a multicul- tural slant by incorporating her many travels to Africa and India, and she is noted for her collaboration with other artists. These collaborations have resulted in the natural combination of poetry with music and the visual arts. For example. Standing performed a poetry reading with a piano accompa- niment by David Froom at Columbia University in New York City and at the Coracoran Gallery of Art in Washington, DC. She has done such performances w ith several other musi- cians in a ariet of venues, proving that poetry can indeed be musical. When simply glancing at her accomplishments, her energy is evi- dent. She is currently the Director of the Creative Writing Program at Wheaton College in Norton, Mass served on the advisory board for the literary magazine. Agttr, and published several articles and books. Her most recent col- lection of poetry, entitled Gravida, was chosen as the win- ner of the 1993 Four Way Books award. Standing's efforts have not gone unnoticed by her colleagues. She has earned many other awards and recog- nitions, including a Whiting Foundation Travel Grant to West .Africa, a Hewlett-Mellon Grant and a Fulbright Grant for travel and study in India. As for the critical community, it has Sue Standing repeatedly praised Standing's writing abilities. The Boston Globe cites Standing's work as being filled with "precision of image and rhythm and Publishers li'eetly praised Standing for her skills in writing "metaphorical poems that are lovely and original Now the Greenville communitv has the opportunity to meet and hear Standing in person. There will be a Meet the Writer event at 3 p.m. in the Greenviile Museum of Art. located at 802 South Evans Street. The reading will be at 7 p.m. in the Willis Building on 300 East 1st Street. A reception and book sale is to follow. Standing's appearance marks the final event for the Writers Reading Series until the next academic year, so don't miss out.

As a result of alcohol's use and abuse on campuses throughout the nation, it has been responsible for, or related to: � 70 percent of violent behavior on campuses; � 41 percent of academic problems; and � 28 percent of students who drop out of school. With this in mind, it is important to address a tew misconceptions people have concerning the use and abuse of alcohol � Alcohol improves my mood, which alters my mental state. It is true that small amounts of alcohol reduce "self-focused attention" in some people. However, heavy drink- ing typically leads ro unpredictable and uncontrollable emotions. If some- one is very angry and drinks to relax, a more likely outcome will be increased anger and all of the undesirable behav- iors which typically follow. Alcohol allows me to perform better. It may seem that you are perform- ing better. Yet for most people, heavy drinking has a detrimental effect on judgment, coordination and reaction time. Any amount of alcohol in your blood leads to impairment in driving. As testimony to this, the use and abuse of alcohol is related to approximately half of all traffic fatalities. Alcohol makes me feel peat. The short term effects of alcohol are often remembered at the expense of long term effects. Short term effects, like the euphoria that is often experienced, are usually pleasurable. Long term effects, such as hangovers, dangerous behavior or impulsive sexu- al behavior, are mostly negative, how- ever. The implications concerning the long term effects are significant since, for example, alcohol has been related to 60 percent of all sexually transmit- ted diseases. If I eat something or drink coffee, it will sober me up. Once alcohol is in your bloodstream there is nothing that can be eaten or taken to speed up the body's ability to metabolize it. What chemicals like caf- feine do instead is help to create wide- awake drunk people. The use and abuse of alcohol for many people progresses into alco- holism (recently termed "alcohol dependency" because of its classifica- tion as a disease. Alcohol dependency is a disease which is generally charac- terized in the following ways: Loss of control- At times a person has no control over how much they drink after they start. Often people who are alcohol dependent go to par- ties intending to have a few drinks and end up drinking quite a bit more. � Continued use despite negative consequences - For example, someone who is alcohol dependent might con- tinue abusing alcohol after they had received a ticket for driving while impaired. Distortion in thinking, especially denial - Many times those with alcohol dependency think that their alcohol consumption is OK and deny that they have a problem. � High tolerance - People who have a dependency on alcohol usually have to drink several beers or drinks in order to get a buzz. People who have any or all of the previous characteristics may have an alcohol use and abuse problem. Since one of the characteristics is distorted thinking, it is much more difficult to take an introspective look at one's self. Often times the best way to address this question is to simply ask a friend. A real friend will be honest about something this serious. Often the family and friends of an alcohol dependent person are affected by this problem, too. It is estimated that one out of every eight adolescents under the age of 18 is growing up in a family with parental alcoholisrn. Everyone has the potential to become dependent on alcohol, but children of alcoholics are four times more likely to have the disease. Family members are often perplexed at how to deal with the problems of an alcohol dependent relative. It is important that those fam- ily members get help for themselves also. Alcoholics Anonymous (1-800- 333-2294) sponsors Al-Anon, a free-ef- charge program that can benefit those affected by a relative's dependency on alcohol, whether or not the family member who actually has the depen- dency seeks help from the program For more information on any of these topics, please call the Student Health Service at 328-6784.

March 20. 1997 lifestyle The East Carolinian U2 continued from page 7 mark of, he instead turns his guitar into a source for all sorts of beeps and whines and fuzzy chainsaw sounds. "Mofo is one of U2's best songs ever, and even though it sports a techno facade that makes the Prodigy seem like wet blankets, it is classic V2. The lyrics set the tone for the whole album, and the tone is classic Bono: "Lookin' for to save my soul Lookin in the place srhere no flowers grow Lookin' for to fill that God shaped hole Bono has never been shy about depressing his Christianity in his lyrics, but here it comes out in full force, like never before. While this album is not as reverent or worshipful as 1982's Ortofxr. it is more focused on Christianity and matters of the soul. In "Mofo Bono describes it as "Looking for the baby Jesus under the trash It seems that. after ten years, he still hasn't found what he's looking for. "If God Will Send His Angels Down is a ballad reminiscent to t)ne and is sure to get heavy airplay. Here Bono combines his search for faith with another of his favorite themes,the broken relationship: "What's that you say to me Does love light up your Christmas tree? The next minute vou're blowing a fuse And the C artoon Network turns into the news This is followed by three of the most rocking songs IJ2 ever wrote, "Staring at the Sun "Last Night on Earth and "Gone "Staring at the Sun" explores the intentional blindness of denial, while "Ust Night on Earth" is another love song in the "l-ove is Blindness" stvle with a very catchy cho- rus. "Gone" is a screaming protest against all of this rock star stuff that Bono has been pretending to like for the past seven years: "Goodbye you can keep this suit of lights I'll be up with the sun "Miami" is a very trip-hop critique of Florida's own mecca of bourgeois excess. "The Playboy Mansion" has U2 turning gospel music into political satire, in which they take a stab at American pop culture of recent years: "If Coke is a mystery And Michael Jackson history If O.J. is more than a drink And a Big Mac is bigger than you think The album's final three tracks arc all gems. "If You Wear That Vfervet Dress" is a gorgeous serenade to a forbidden love: "We've been here before last time you scratched at my door The moon was naked and cold I was like a two year old Who just wanted more Bono must have had Frank Sinatra in his CD player while the band was recording this one; his voice is seven ways smooth. "Please" is almost like the morning after, with its drunken drum pattern and hangover guitars. Or perhaps Bono is singing to himself here: "Your catholic blues Your convent shoes Your stick on tattoos Now they're making the news Your sermon on the mount From the boot of your car "Wake Up Dead Man" is actually a leftover from jooropa, but its inclusion on the end of POP is very appropriate. Here the band segues into a solid rock song that evokes more confusion and frustration than Kurt Cobain could have dreamed about. Bono's frustration is more with God, though. "Wake Up" is simultaneously a cry for help and a Job- like protest. In the end, Bono's beleaguered dis- cotheque character finds himself in the same palace he started, but with possi- bly a prayer and a hope of some kind of resurrection. The band members themselves have definitely enacted a resurrection of their own, proving once again that they can produce quality material and still remain relevant to the culture of the dav. And POP Well, yes. it really is a deep, moving, inspiring record, a tour- dc-force for the band. But don't let that discourage you. It still sounds good played loud at a party. 1 M.is�rtifd �L fc A� Harris Teeter Your Neighborhood Food Market H-�vUS SALE STARTS WED MARCH 19th HARRIS TEETER COUPON I HARRIS TEETER COUPON HARRISTEETERJXUPON WtthThi Coupon 73S.� T OOu KS-WSjm Karris Ibtt�r Macaroni 8t Or!

For nine years, she has lived the sport day in and day out to become one of the Lady Rrates' most valuable players in her senior year at ECU. Rost played four years of varsity softbali for her high school before walking on to the Lady Pirate team as a college freshman. She said playing sports at a Division I level has been the highlight of her college career. "I have really benefited from being an athlete at ECU Rost said. "1 have enjoyed die discipline and good work ethic that I have devel- oped through such a strict lifestyle Rost is especially excited about this season. Under the direction of new Head Coach Tracey Kee and in having the opporruniry to work with an "extremely enthusiastic team Rost has been able to enjoy the sport in a whole new way "This season is a tot different, but it is a positive different. Coach Kee is young, so she is able to relate to us weW. She's got what it takes to win, and she is passing that on to us Rost said. Rost said that on the field, Kee is all business, but off the field, she is a good friend. "I am so excited to end play for Coach Kee because I have the ulti- mate respect for her as not only a coach, but also a former player Rost said. Rost said that in her opinion, this reason marks the start of a turning point in the history of Lady Pirate Softball. The team has focused most- ly on pulling together and making the adjustments necessary to combine ths veterans and the rookies into one talented group. Already 29 games into the season, the Lady Pirates eminent- ly hold an 18-11 record overall and a 4-0 Big South Conference record. Coming to ECU from Richmond, Rost will be graduating in May with a degree in marketing. She will return home after graduation and is thinking of going into sales. Rost has two older sisters who also played softbali in high school. With one sister studying at Virginia Tech and the other pursuing a degree at Radford University, Rost chose to come to ECU so she could go some- where different and sail be a part of a Division! softbali team. Rost has played third base throughout her entire career as a Lady Pirate. In 199$, she was named to the AU-Toumament Team in the Lady Pirate Classic and was also the recipient of the Golden Gtove in the 1995 East Carolina Round Robin. The highlight of Boat's career came about tot year at the Big South Conferer�eChsmpionship.ECUhsd just entered the conference and had yet co make a statement about the strength of the program. In beating almost all of the teams at the tourna- ment and finishing as the runner up, the Ladv Pirates were able to gain the respect thst they deserved. As for this season, the team's ulti- mate goal is to win the conference SEE PAGE 13 chtriime looks to regroup after fwrtechnioai loss Qq jf team places eighth in Fripp Island tournament; PORT MILL, S.C. (AP) - Now that theyve put themselves in position for the winningest season in franchise history, the Charlotte Hornets dont want to undo it with foul tempers. . 7 The Homers tot weekend began a stretch in which they play 11 of their last If games against teams with losing records. On paper at least, it looked like a perfect scenario for a club that is gpHing under first-year coach Dave Cowens attd has already surpassed last season's victory total. 7 But Charlotte has begun the sesson-ending stretch by losing two of three, its worst span in more than a month, and the Hornets punctuated cheir latest tot by bem called fof27 personat fours and five technicals. � "I'm mx discouraged Cowens said. "I thmk it's goodjrhe guys got upset. But I want them to quit talking and get back to the game i The Hornets built a 16-point lead against Utah earty in the second quarter Monday night before spending much of the restof the nightbickenng withthe dffcrts and trying tooutmusde the Jstz. tfe matched Chssfotre's physical rjkw and rallied for I MJvfctory.

The Hornets (42-24 hew won 27of38, putting them on course to surpass the Sfrvictory mark for the first time in the franchise'snine years and moving them into sixth place in the Eastern Conference playoff race. Rule changes keen coming in Winston Cup series DARLINGTON, SJC (AP) - That slippery advantage Thunderbirds had for a couple of weeks on NASCAR tracks turned out to be just dust in the wind tun- nel After running competing models through its annual wind-tunnel tests, NASCAR has taken away the aerodynamic change it gave the Fords two weeks ago. . The latest alteration raises the front air dam on the Thunderbird by the one- eighth inch - the same amount NASCAR allowed Ford to lower the dam prior to the March 9 race at Atlanta Motor Speedway The sanctioning body also told the Ford teams to tower the rear spoiler by a quarter-inch, beginning with Sunday's TranSouth Financial 400 at Darlington Rflccwttv The change was announced five days after Dale Jarrett overpowered the fteld in a Thunderbird during the Primestar 500 at Atlanta. The victory was the second straight for Ford. Chevrolet Monte Cartes, driven by Jeff Gordon, won the first two races of 1997. "I'm surprised because when they (NASCAR) had cars in the tunnel before, they sat down and really worked through things and looked at all the numbers and looked at the impact of them, and it took them several weeks to make a decision said Don Miller, co-owner and general manager of Penskc South Racing which fields Fords for Rusty Wallace. "Now, three days later, theyVe made another rule change, Milter said. "When they were dealing with the Chevrotets, it took three or four weeks to reach a decision . , . , NASCAR impounded three cars after the Atlanta race, including Jarrett s Ford, the Monte Carlo of defending series champion and current runnerup Terry Labonte and the Fbntiac Grand Prix of Morgan Shepherd, who was third ac Atlanta. ANTHONY STANFILL STAFf WHITES White most students packed then- bags and headed out of town for spring break, ECU's golf team had business to take care of The Pirates spent the first three days of their break, Mar. 7-9, in Fripp Island, S.C. They were just one of the 19 teams participating in the Ben HoganFripp Island Intercoitegftte Tournament. The Pirates placed eighth overall in the tournament. At one time the Pirates were three shots away from first, but some high scores on the last day sent the Pirates down to eighth. Toledo University eventually rook top honors, winning the tournament. Marc Miller was the Pirates' best finisher, placing sixth overall individu- ally Milter shot a 73, 72 and 73 over the three days. Head Coach Kevin Williams says Miller continues to play well. "Marc Milter has been his consis- tent serf all year Williams said. Kevin MBter was another Pirate who played wett at Fripp Island. Milter shot a 73,72 and 75, and finished 12th overall, individually. "Kevin Miller really stepped it up Williams said. "He had his best tour- nament of the year, which 1 was glad to see. I think well continue to see good things our of rum Thes�r�C�thl1irares who mate the trig we RSstfe Creech, St?s� Satterry and Daniel Griffis. "What's hurting us right now is that Creech, our best player coming into the spring, is in a slump right now Williams said. "We're just not deep enough to cover him. We just need more consistency out of our three to five man. That is what's real- ly hurting us However, the Pirates are very opti- mistic about thek next match. It's the PepsiBradford Creek Classic played on the Pirates' home turf at Bradford Creek Golf Course, in Greenvine. "I'm looking forward to playing at home because Bradford Creek is a dif- ferent style of golf course. This works to our obvious advantage, since we play here so often Wfflissns said. There aw 24 very competitive teams playing in the tournament, including tot year's winner, USC Aiken. The players who will take to the green for the Phwes will be M. Nfiller, K. Miller, Sarteriy, Shane Robinson and Daniel Griffis. Even though Williams is starting three freshmen for the first time, he stSI � thinks they have a good chance of J winning.

Skaters compete for title � LAUSANNE, Switzerland (AP) - By their jumping alone, it was nearly impossible to distinguish world champion Jbdd Eldredge from European champion Alexei Urmanov from Russian national champion Itya Kulik. What made the difference in the short program Wednesday at the World Figure Skating Championships - the most highly technical display in figure skating history - was, quite simply, ele- gance. Urmanov, Eldredge and Kulik, 1- 2-3 in the short, all landed the diffi- cult triple axel-triple toe combina- tions with ease. But then, so did at least six other skaters. This is how far men's skating has progressed in just one year, only two men hit the jump in the 19 worlds. But Urmanov's classical lines, unshakable even in a rock music program, and easily flowing move- ments defied by the slightest hint of hip-gyrating playfulness in the step sequence gave him the edge. The decision was close. Urmanov had four first-place marks, Eldredge three and Kulik two. The edge went to artistry: eight 5.9s for Urmanov's presentation. Eldredge, in second place, scored eight 5.8s. This may prove to be artistry's last stand as the men pile jumps into their arsenals in figure skating's equivalent of the arms race. Clean routine after clean rou- tine, skaters ranked as low as ninth in the short program affirmed they would attempt the quad in the long program Thursday. Urmanov, Kulik and Canadian champion Elvis Stojko all hit them in competition earlier this month and another half dozen skaters have been practicing them. Only Eldredge will enter the battle of the quads unarmed. "I'll flat out say it right now. No Eldredge said. Eldredge of Bloomfield Hills, Mich is counting on high-rotating triple jumps, style and dizzying fixed-axis spins to stay in con- tention for the title. Spins never looked so good as in Eldredge's short program. Rotating fast, faster, Eldredge dissolved into a whirling haze that in a cartoon world would have certainly have drilled through the ice and out of view. "Performance-wise, he was excellent. But technically, that's the best program I've seen him do said coach Richard Callaghan. The short program is worth just one-third the total score, leaving the game wide open for at least the top three skaters. "I'm going to come out fighting for the gold medal. And of course there will be quad in the program Urmanov said. Kulik, fourth in Europeans, rebounded with an arm swinging depiction of Faust that included a difficult compass-spinning step sequence that sprang directly into a double axel, two required elements fused into one. "If my quad is good of course I will try the combination Kulik said. But unless one of the top three makes a major mistake, even fourth- ranked Stojko will have a tough time breaking the ceiling even with his technical superiority. He is the only skater to hit a quad-triple in competition, and plans to try it on Thursday. His jumps were spot-on in the short, and he knew it, practically inviting the audience to applaud with broad grin and wide-armed gesture after each jump nailed. But he was clearly disappointed by his artistic marks in the short, which included two 5.6s for his program depicting the super comic book hero Rocketeer. "I was kind of wondering where they were coming from he said. "My spins were on, artistry was on, and jumpwisc I was on Softball continued from page 11 tournament and advance to the NCAA Championships, which will be held in early May. "It's going to take all 17 of us to win and reach our goals Rost said. Rost has raised her batting aver- age to .360 and is currently on a hit- ting streak with two homers, two doubles, and a triple in the last nine games. As she put it, "this year has been one of her better ones Rost said that as she graduates, she sees the program gaining more respect and moving on to the next level to possibly being a top 25 team in the near future. "What I will miss the most about playing softball is playing on a team with 17 other athletes Rost said. "Great friendships have been built in the past four years, and saving good-bye is going to be a hard thing to do Tht cMt Cwotaitfl RINGGOLD TOWERS Now Taking Leases for 1 bedroom, 2 bedroom & Efficiency Apartments.
