However, not all health officials agree with the recommen- dation. Infectious disease expert Dr. Chris Ohl of the School of Medicine is not con- vinced that the vaccine should be recom- mended for all freshmen. "Because con- tracting meningitis is so rare, it isn't a pub- lic health event Ohl said.

NOVEMBER 16, 1999 TODAY'S WEATHER Sunny, high of 56 and a low of 31 Great American Smokeout held in November American Cancer Society plays role in nationwide event Ashley Roberts STAFF WRITER The Great American Smokeout is a nation- wide event that takes place the first Thursday of November every year. "The Great American Smokeout was begun by the American Gancer Society (ACS) in 1971 in Randolph, Massachusetts said Jane H a Gancer Information Specialist for the ACS. "The people were asked to give up cigarettes for a day and to donate the money they would have bought cigarettes with, to a high school schol- arship fund According to the ACS, the first national Great American Smokeout was in 1977. It has been promoted by celebrities such as Sammy Davis Jr. and Natalie Cole. A survey in 1998 was done by the Ephilson Group Inc. on the awareness of the Great Ameri- can Smokeout. Results were that 74 percent of people surveyed had heard of this event, 19 per- cent participated and six percent gave up ciga- rettes for 24 hours. "The American Cancer Society is helping us with the Great American Smokeout by support- ing us with lots of materials and handouts said Dr. Betty Strab, associate dean of student devel- opment and director of health promotions. "They are a very important partner with us for the Smokeout. They are also providing us with a $10,000 grant for this process According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the main reasons that people smoke include to relax, to deal with an- ger, because they feel uncomfortable without a cigarette in their hand, it gives them a lift and it is part of an enjoyable, daily routine. Many smokers have a physiological addition. Most smokers have found that many of these reasons apply to them. "1 think many students smoke for weight loss Strab.said. "They like the image of smok- ing because it seems to be a connection to drink- ing. Some students, when asked about their smoking habits, responded that they only smoke when they drink "Smoking could cause people to not be in- terested in dating you because you could smell or taste bad said freshman Jessica Lassiter. "1 mean, who wants to kiss something that tastes like an ash tray "1 hear a lot of students say they light up because they are feeling anxiety said David Lollar, graduate student. According to the ACS, the main effects of smok- ing are cancer and heart disease. Smokers who have diabetes can experience reduced circulation. To- bacco accounts for one-third of cancer deaths in the U.S today. There is specifically increased risk in smokers in the areas of cervix, mouth, kidney and bladder cancer. "Smoking can cause bronchitis and infezema on long-term smokers said William Pryor, chair- man of the department of comparative medicine. "Also, smoking is a cause andor a promoter of lung cancer Heart disease and stroke are two other effects caused by smoking usually found in women. Last year, 34,000 worfrn'died from heart disease and 8,000 died from stroke. Each of these 42,000 deaths can be attributed to smoking. "I think teenagers today smoke because they see that their friends are doing it said Pryor. "They are also at an age when the adverse effects of smoking have no effect on them. They think their health will not be effected, which is not true When asked how much students spend on ciga- rettes, Strab said, "for the students who only smoke when they are drinking, I would think that they See SMOKE, page 2 College students at ECU and across the country face the decision to smoke or not smoke daily. The Great American Smokeout on the first Thursday of November works anually toward the goal of extingusihing the habit nationwide, (photos by Robin Vuchnich) University, United Way offer financial help to flood victims $330,000 available for students, staff Angela Harne STAFF WRITER The United Way and ECU are entering Phase II of their flood relief plan, which includes dis- tributing funds donated by ECU families and surrounding com- munities to those affected by the flood. According to Leslie Craigle, director of Marketing, grant money is available to assist stu- dents who incurred substantial flood damage during and after Hurricane Floyd. In order to ap- ply for this financial assistance, one must complete a "Phase II ECU Family Relief Fund-Student Application" form and provide documentation of their situa- tion. Completed forms and docu- mentation must be submitted to the Office of Student Financial Aid by Friday. Workshops for students and staff took place yesterday in the Wright Place from 3-6 p.m. An- other workshop will take place today in the Pat Draughon Room, 2nd Floor in the Ward Sports Medicine Building from 3- 6 p.m. According to Rose Mary Stelma, director of Financial Aid, ECU has $330,000 left from the half million dollars donated. "ECU has already distributed $170,000 from the $100 cash gifts given out at the Todd Relief Center Stelma said. Stelma said that when stu- dents fill out their applications and state their needs, United Way will review each application and decide the amount that should be given. "Amounts distributed will range from $0 to $2,000 Stelma said. "Students must bring their social security number, current address and phone number, the address of their floodeddam- aged residence, a copy of esti- mates for home repairs or re- placement of contents, a copy of vehicle repairs, a copy of docu- ment showing rent or monthly mortgage amounts, a copy of document showing amount of insurance deductibles and copies of or a list identifying assistance already received such as insur- ance claims paid, FEMA, Red Cross, SBA Loan offeredac- cepted, andor Phase I ECU fi- nancial aid grant amount Craigle said. If you are unable to attend workshops, applications for sup- port from Phase II are now avail- able in the Office of Financial Aid in the Old Cafeteria Complex and at the SGA Office in Men- denhall Student Center. "This grant will have no im- pact on other financial aid al- ready given to the student Stelma said. "The need is based solely on need and what the stu- dent has lost. Basic questions are on the form like 'did you own or rent your home? Was your car or possessions destroyed or dam- aged? Have you gotten any other assistance or applied for any?' The answers given will help de- termine the amount that will be granted. I recommend that stu- dents bring a letter of explana- tion of their losses and difficul- ties they have encountered or are going through now "We are suspecting about 100 students at the workshops Stelma said. "We are not exactly sure who still is in need, but these workshops will help us tap into those who still need help and support "These workshops will be very helpful said Laura Sweet, assistant dean of Student Life Dean of Students. "Students will be able to ask questions, apply for grants and get needed docu- ments copied According to Tonya Sanders of the United Way, grant money will be distributed sometime in December. "At the moment I am review- ing applications I have already received Sanders said. "So far I have received about 125 applica- tions from staff. I think that probably around 100 students will try to get grant money definitely not as many that went through Todd This writer can be contacted at aharne@studentmedia.ecu.edu Concerned citizens plead with university Web warns students about melanoma Angela Harne STAFF WRITER Stephen and Gail Fine are spreading the word about the dangers and health risks of melanoma, the deadly skin cancer. The Fines' son died at age 26 last year, and they do not want others to be at risk, but rather to be aware. Chancellor Eakin received a letter from the Fines asking ECU to spread the word about the dangers and the growing spread of melanoma. A Web site, http: www.skincheck.com, has been setup by the Fines to offer ad- ditional information about melanoma and its dangers. The site focuses on early detection of melanoma by self-examination of the skin while the disease is still thin and curable. Here are some facts on melanoma: 1. There is a fatal gap in melanoma education. In a 1996 survey, the Center for Disease Control found that 74 percent of individuals in the 18-24 age group had little or no knowledge of melanoma. 2. Among the 25-29 age group, melanoma is the most prevalent cancer. The inci- dence is increasing by nearly four percent every year, faster than any other type of can- cer. An average of one in ev- ery 75 students in any cam- pus community will develop melanoma during their lives. 3. Melanoma is the easi- est of all cancers to spot at the earliest stages by simple self- examination, when it is al- most guaranteed curable by painless removal in a dermatologist's office. Wait- ing allows it to invade inter- nally, transforming it into one of the most malignant and incurable of all cancers. According to the Fines, in- formation at their site is from the American Academy of Dermatology (ADD), Na- tional Cancer Institute (NCI) and other reliable sources. Both AAD and NCI have added links to the site. "There is no request for contributions and no adver- tising at our site the Fines said. "The Fund is a non- profit service organization and there is no hidden agenda "Our son would likely be alive today if he had received this kind of information about the disease, which is much more prevalent and se- rious than most people real- ize the Fines said.

For the heavier smokers, I would probably say ten dollars or more , "I probably spend around three dollars a week on cigarettes said Freshman Whitney Boone. When Jane H. was asked if she smoked, she said, "I am not allowed to give out that information, but I can say that 1 have never known anyone of the ACS to smoke. Most everyone that works at the Cancer Information Center has had their life touched by cancer one way or another According to the ACS, those of you smoking "light" cigarettes who think that you cannot be affected by cancer, think again. According to a fax from the ACS, in reality, the difference in nicotine content across cigarette types is not significant. "Light" and regular ciga- rettes offer similar amounts of nico- tine to the smoker. Smokers who switch to "light" cigarettes, may simply smoke harder and longer on the "light" cigarettes. They do this in order to achieve the same impact and level of nicotine they would obtain from a regular cigarette. According to 1997 data provided by the ACS, there were no signifi- cant differences in the nicotine con- tent of full flavor, "light" or "ultra- light" cigarettes. Whether a ciga- rette is classified as full flavor, "light" or "ultra-light it is likely to contain similar amounts of nico- tine. For the average smoker, a "light" cigarette delivers moderate to high doses of nicotine, sufficient enough to cause and maintain heavy dependence. "As someone who smoked for a number of years, the best thing I ever did for my health was quit Pepsi recycling program lessens wildlife hazards ECU vending works with soft drink giant Angela Harne STAFF WRITER Despite some past com- plaints, Pepsi is helping the the university. Pepsi has been working with ECU in recycling s'x-pack carri- ers ever since the soft drink com- pany became the main vendor a year ago. According to David Santa Ana, stockroom manager of Stu- dent Stores, ECU collects the ring carriers and Pepsi does the rest of the work. "We don't have a vender that accepts ring carriers Santa Ana said. "So we collect them and Pepsi takes them to their vendors that recycle the packs. I really support this program. Even though we aren't really a part of it, since Pepsi does all of the work, It is still great plus it helps the wildlife and environ- ment. Ring carriers bring many hazards to animals and the world. Littering weakens the envi- ronment, and it has been shown that carriers have killed animals by trapping them their wings, necks or fins This program was first imple- mented in September 1997. The North Carolina Vending Association (NCVA) and the National Automatic Merchandising Assn. (NAMA) began the recycling program of six-pack ring carriers. "We are very proud to be offer- ing this program said John Jack- son, President of NCVA of Vermil- lion Food Services in Kinston. "It will have a positive effect on com- munities in NC, while proving NCVA's commitment to the envi- ronment The program plan was for par- ticipants to collect and store the six- pack rings that package cans of soft drinks and water. Vending distribu- tors will pick up the boxes of six- pack rings and hold them until ITW Hi-Cone returns them to its plant in Itasca, 111 for recycling. The used rings were to be recycled into new rings, creating a closed-loop recy- cling program. "We are extremely excited to bring this program that they can use to increase their own company in- volvement in offering our mem- bers a program that they can use to increase their own company involvement in the community, while increasing awareness of en- vironmental issues at the sartie time said Chana Alford, em- ployee of InfoMarketing. "Every- one can win with this program According to Alford, distribu- tors include VSA Inc Greensboro and Vendor's Supply Salisbury. The operators involved are All Brands Vending Co Ashevllle, Carolina Food Services Corp Charlotte, Central Carolina Vending Corp Biscoe, Gallins Vending Co Winston-Salem, Golden Ray Food Services Inc Ashevllle, Horse Shoe Vending, Mid-South Food Service, Aber- deen, Northwest Food Service, N. Wilkesboro, Piedmont Vending, Hickory and Vermillion Food Ser- vice in Kinston. Alford claimed that ECU was involved in the program in 1997, but according to Santa Ana, ECU did not join until Pepsi became the primary vendor of the univer- sity.

"When trying to main- tain good health practices, smoking was incompatible with the things I was trying to do from a health standpoint According to a survey conducted by the Epsilon Group, Inc after the ACS's 22nd annual Great American Smoke-out In 1998, smoking hab- its have dramatically changed since the inception of the ACS's Great American Smoke-out. Reports show the number of smokers has dropped from 54.1 million to 48 million. About 75 percent of the adult popu- lation are non-smokers. SGA BRIEFS Meeting called to order. SGA President Cliff Webster an- nounced that N.C. university tu- itions are said to increase $1,500 over the next five years. ODK Honors Society had planned on bringing local elemen- tary children who were victims of the flood to the Rec. Center. How- ever school counselors felt that it would be a strain on the children. As a result, ODK Honors Society is sponsoring a program, "T's and Tales which will collect books and t-shirts for local elementary schools that lost everything in the flood from now until Friday, December 3. Tamika Morris, Robert Nicks, Armstead Galiber, Dana Butry, Amanda Murer, John Flanagan and Rebecca Rey were welcomed into the 1999 Academic Integrity Board. Representative Christy Lynch reported that last Wednesday's SGA booth at the Wright Place was very successful and they received ten applications.

Although the number of early applicants has hit a new high at 1,367, mi- nority students comprise only 15 percent of the rjool�about a S percent drop from last year. ; Director of Undergraduate Admissions Ghristoph Guttentag said the final numbers may vary slightly, but it seems that the most notable decrease came in the number of Latino applicants, Which fell from S3 to 30. Last year, the admis- sions office boasted the highest number of over- all Latino applicants ever�a 10 percent jump from the year before. ; Meanwhile, the numbers of Asian-American aTid Native-American applicants slid from 137 to 111 and from 13 to seven, respectively. Only the number of black applicants went up, from 44 to 51. ' "In some sense, last year was an aberration, certainly in terms of the number of Latino appli- cants Guttentag said. "What we're seeing is pretty typical to what we've seen in past years Beyond that, he could not explain the drop in the number of minority students applying for early decision. Guttentag said he doubts the Class of 2004 will ultimately reflect the early decision pool. "We've had very nice successes over the last several years, both for minorities applying to and matriculating at Duke Guttentag said. "The early decision pool is always a lower percentage of stu- dents of color than the regular decision process I'm hesitant to draw any conclusions about minority presence in the applicant pool from the early decision group But Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education William Chafe said the decrease will require fur- ther analysis. "It is a surprising and disturbing drop, if it means anything over time Chafe said. Trinity senior Rudy Spaulding, co-coordinator of Mi Gente, speculated about possible reasons for the lack of diversity in early decision pools. "For the most part, I think only real die-hard Duke fans, like people who have family members who are Duke alumni or people with a real pas- sion for Duke, are the only types of people who apply early said Spaulding, who also works in the admissions office. "And unfortunately, many students of color do not fall into those catego- ries Trinity senior Damani Sims, president of the Black Student Alliance, said he thinks many mi- nority applicants need to consider financial aid when they decide where-and when-to apply. " Duke University's tuition rate alone is enough to give qualified prospective minority stu- dents second thoughts about attending such an institution he said. "The early .decision pro- cess locks one into matriculation to a particular school without receiving pertinent information about financial aid, so prospective students choose to wait and see what other schools will offer them Michigan State U.�Nine homemade bombs were found outside of Philips Residence Hall at Michigan State University last week. Three of the bombs ex- ploded some time between Tuesday and Thursday but did not injure anyone, MSU Police Detective Tony Willis said. Willis explained that the bombs were allegedly con- structed with household chemicals in 20-ounce plas- tic Gatorade bottles. A Philips resident discovered the bombs in the courtyard between Philips and the connecting Snyder Residence Hall, and a staff member then informed MSU Police of the explosives. The police arrived at the scene early Wednesday morning with the Michigan State Police bomb squad, which operates out of Lansing. MSU Police evacuated residents living in the basement and the first floor of Philips whose rooms were adjacent to the courtyard. Willis said police have no suspects, but he ex- plained that MSU Police will first focus their investi- gation on Philips residents and expand from there. In addition to determining what chemicals were used to make the bombs, police are attempting to iden- tify a suspect by using fingerprints found on the bottles. Any suspect found guilty of making the bombs could be charged with a felony offense of possession and creation of an explosive device, which carries a minimum sentence of four years in prison. Mohamad Pedram, who lives on the second floor of Philips near the courtyard, said the bombs were "pretty loud, like gunshots Philips resident Ashley Dehr said the idea that the bombs were placed in the courtyard, where many stu- dents often play football, concerns her. "It doesn't make us feel safe Dehr'said. "It makes us have to be more careful a Willis said yesterday's discovery is not connected to any prior incidents at Philips. "This is pretty much a random incident he said. Willis said many reporters have been asking whether the bombs were linked to the riots that oc- curred in March when the MSU men's basketball team lost to Duke University in the semifinals of the NCAA men's basketball tournament. He said the incidents are not related. "Right now, it seems to be a college prank Willis said. An event you won't want to miss Live Your Dream!

A Galveston County, Texas, school board is asking the justices to overturn a lower court ruling that said student-led prayers over the public-address system at football games violate the constitutionally required separation of church and state. "The school district is not causing prayer or endors- ing prayer if it leaves to the student the choice of what to say school district lawyer Lisa A. Brown said after the nation's highest court granted review. "There's a long tradition in many states of having this pre-game ceremony of having a moment of reflection before the game begins But the Rev. Barry Lynn of Americans United for Separation of Church and State contended such prayers at officially sponsored school events violate the Con- stitution. "The school's giving you the microphone; it will sound like an officially sanctioned religious statement, and that's what has no place at a high school football game Lynn said. The Supreme Court's decision, expected by late June, could help clarify the jumbled state of the law surround- ing school prayer. The justices' last major school-prayer ruling, in 1992, barred clergy-led prayers at public school gradu- ation ceremonies. "The Constitution forbids the state to exact religious conformity from a student as the price of attending her own high school graduation the court said then. The ruling was viewed by many as a strong reaffir- mation of the highest court's 1962 decision banning organized, officially sponsored prayers from public schools. But in 1993, the justices let stand a federal appeals court ruling in a Texas case that allowed student-Ujd prayers at graduations. That ruling, which also applii s to Louisiana and Mississippi, conflicts with anothtr federal appeals court decision barring student-leid graduation prayers in nine Western states. Monday's case comes from an area of the country where some people joke that football is almost a rel i gion. Four students and their parents sued the Santa Fe Independent School District in 1995, seeking to end student-led prayers over the public-address system at home football games in the Houston suburb. .

OURVIEW OPINION COLUMN Fear of death controls minds Demonsthenes OPINION WRITER J Christianity is the product of the fear of death. In �; fact, all religions are a product of the fear of death, ; including science. Why do you think science and reli- gion have these constant battles over topics like evolu- tion? We are all just trying to find out where we all started. Religion works on the premise of belief and faith, things that allow the pious to feel secure in the knowl- edge of where they began and where they are heading when the party is over. The best religions, however, are the ones which allow a certain amount of flexibility in thought and acknowledge the fact that there is no right answer. These are mostly eastern beliefs since the hypo- critical western ideal of worship leaves little room for flexibility. Science views death and says, "Hey, I'm gonna beat you The constant drive in this brave new world to perfect the human body and make it last forever makes me sick. Stop worrying about how to make your life longer and start worrying about how to make every infinitesimally small moment you have in this para- dise meaningful. The biggest problem with science, and the reason for its battle with immortality, is that it tells you that when you die the chemicals in your body just stop working and you simply decay back to the basic ele- ments from which you were made. There is no notion of afterlife because the afterlife cannot be measured. This explanation, as a rule, does not make people fun- damentally happier and thus people fear death. In this universe, everything comes back onto itself. It must do so in order to create an absolute balance. There is no love without hate, there is no health with- out illness and there is no life without death. Death is the culmination of a life lived and should be embraced as a part of the natural order of events. Whether you belief in reincarnation, heaven and hell or the universal mind fire, just know that you have to believe and know that you cannot fear death. Hope, love and passion are the only things which make this life worthwhile so revel in their luminescence while you can and do not fear, until we meet again. This writer can be contacted demonsthenes@studentmedia.ecu.edu. at OPINION COLUMN Joyner Library still inadequate Marvelle Sullivan OPINION WRITER ECU possesses many attributes. We have a great rec- reation facility, a fairly centralized campus and a con- venient location. There is one thing, though, that is severely inadequate�our library. Admittedly, the remodeled Joyner Library is very nice looking, but the outside appearance is not the prob- lem. In the first place, most universities the size of ECU . have more than one general library on campus. While it is strange that one of the largest universi- ties in the state has only one library (music and medi- cal libraries aside), it is absolutely appalling that ECU'S sole library is not open 24 hours a day. For example, it is embarrassing that the library closes at 8 p.m. on Fri- days. To be sure, there isn't a mad dash to the books on Friday evening for most, but out of 18,000 students, there is probably enough of a demand to keep the place open. If you can get over the fact that hours are insane, it's almost impossible to overcome the perils of com- ing and leaving there. Of course, there are only about eight metered parking places to fight over if you do not live on campus. You could walk to and from the library, but at night, the lighting is so bad around the mall and the back area, that it really has the potential to be quite dangerous. It's hard enough to motivate yourself to actually go, but to have to worry about park- ing and dangerous unlighted areas too? That's really � asking too much. i ' � As if the situation isn't bad enough, then there is the actual quality of our library with which to con- tend. Honestly, there is not an incredible amount of books, reference material or anything relative to what this university should have to offer. The library seems huge and filled with books, but that's mainly because it's laid out very poorly. Basically, it's an illusion�the material is either scarce or non-existent. Then, to add insult to injury, students are soon go- ing to be required to pay for each page they print out. Last time I checked, that should fall under "student fees Here is an idea: Why doesn't the university take the ridiculous Sonic Plaza�with the sounds, the wa- terfall, the steam and the midnight jack-in-the-box� and cash it in for some books and paper? You know, the stuff that we are at this university for anyway. I know that ECU isn't the academic center of the country, but that doesn't mean that the one general library that is here should have limited hours, limited access and even more limited resources. There is no excuse for it because the funds are definitely available, or the Sonic Plaza wouldn't exist. The library is a fundamental aspect of any univer- sity. Joyner Library's inadequacy is a hard-and-fast in- dicator of the general academic climate at this univer- sity. Improving the overall academic image of this school is presently an administrative goal. To accomplish this, upgrading the library by increasing hours, accesses and resources is a step in the right direction in order to be taken seriously in the future. The present condition just serves to discourage students' frequent use of a place that is designed to enhance the overall academic expe- rience. 777s writer can be msullivan@studentmedia.ecu.edu. contacted at The East Carolinian editon9studentmeclia.ecu.edu UUEN ANIMALS ATTRACT. -the mnNC- wing o? -mm ?Jm0 mo m j&Ct � Mil d �aft k y Hurricane Floyd affected everyone at ECU. The damage wreaked by the storm and the flood that followed left many with tattered lives. Relief for those affected is still needed by many members of the staff and stu- dents. Monetary relief is available from many sources. While FEMA and other agencies have been taxed severely by victims of Floyd, other means of relief are willing to take on people that need help. For relief, some in the ECU community can look to the university itself i for help. The United Way and ECU have teamed up to form the ECU Fam- ily Relief Fund. Phase I of the relief fund was implemented at Todd Dining Hall earlier this semester. Students were able to get immediate relief in the form of money and books to replace those the flood ruined. Phase II will cover the more serious losses people have had to face since the water tore through the city. It will help people to get back on their feet in a more permanent manner, helping to replace major facets of life, like cars and homes. The ECU Family Relief Fund was set up to aid those in the community affected by the hurricane. ECU families and private citizens in the Greenville area have donated over half a million dollars for the cause; $330,000 of this is left. The money will be available to both students and staff mem- bers who were hurt by the flood. While a large share of the relief comes from the government and other sources, the fund's money comes expressly from eastern NC. Not many people in this region escaped Floyd's fury. If the storm did not reach them, the floods did. For North Carolinians to give this kind of money to others when they, themselves are still struggling to make ends meet is not only generous, it is heroic. It is commendable that the university and those affected by the flood are able to turn around and give back to those who were worse off. LETTER TO THE EDITOR Not all student politicians out for money money. If elected as SGA president (something I have wanted to do for nearly two years), I would love to serve my constituents taking the altruistic attitude that I have. I feel that politics is a field in which each person has a different mentality toward his or her office. Mr. Webster has a certain mentality�one with which some ECU students disagree. I encourage ALL 18,200 of ECU'S students to vote in the next election and then, maybe, someone would be representing you with whom you would not find fault. Dear Editor, I was quite disturbed to read the letter from Dustin Bennett in the 111199 edition of TEC. I agree with Mr. Bennett on points that SGA is "an extracurricular activity and a service but I felt like he was implying that many collegiate politicians take Mr. Webster's view that the job of president does not yield enough pay. I understand that $400 is nearly a month's sal- ary for many students who are working too hard to even think about extracurricular activities like SGA Many members of the ECU community must work in order to supplement their college education and I com- mend these individuals, as this is a very difficult life to lead. Again, however, I want the university to know that not ALL campus leaders are only "in it" for the Michael C. Aho Sophomore Special education OPINION COLUMN Pokemon takes over American market Ryan Kennemur OPINION WRITER Don't attempt to adjust your tele- vision screens, kiddies. The color and contrast are both at the optimal lev- els. That yellow blob with the light- ning bolt tail that screams random Japanese words is supposed to be there and the worst thing is, it doesn't look like it's going anywhere soon. Pokemon, or "pocket monster has been taking the country by storm for the past year and a half. The idea is that these little monsters are found in egg form, then hatched and trained to fight other Pokemon, all the while mutating into super mon- sters that are unbeatable. To chil- dren, this entire concept appears to be incredibly addictive. To me, it seems like the most explosive and ingenious idea in the past 20 years The Japanese have continually beaten the collective snot out of America in the children entertain- ment industry over the past 15 years. Think about it. What have the Japa- nese given us, toy-wise? Those little keychain babies that die, Furbys, and basically every video game system on the market all come to mind. And what do we have to combat these imported wonders? Can you say Milton Bradley? Indeed, the Japanese have a "Mo- nopoly" over our "Sorry" children's entertainment, and it "Boggles" the mind why we never want to take a "Risk" and make something worth the "Toys backward R Us" shelves, but I guess that's just "Life Nintendo of America (motto: Squash you like bug) has really got- ten a hold of a good thing with this whole Pokemon phenomenon. It seems to have more staying power than "Tickle-Me-Elmo "Tickle-Me- Cookie Monster and "Stay-the- Hell-Away-From-Me-Oscar the Grouch First came the Gameboy game, which is its top selling game of all time after just over a year of release. The game actually does some good things according to some studies. It teaches kids good decision making skills and hand-eye coordination. And instead of killing your oppos- ing monster, you merely stun them. It's like violence with just one calo- rie. On the other hand, those guys overseas are not all into teaching our kids right from wrong. Not when it's their pockets that are desperately in need ot precious, precious yen. They introduced the game in two differ- ent versions, red and blue (with an- other coming soon). The only differ- ence between the two games is that they have different monsters to fight, but the layout of the game and char- acters remain the same. So instead of buying one game for little Timmy, we have to buy them the same game twice. Genius. Next comes the card game. Oh God, the card game. I worked at a summer camp last year and let me tell you something. Kids would rather resort to capital punishment than have their Pokemon cards taken away. The idea of the game is based on all the other trendy "Magic- ish" card games out there where you are pitted against an opponent with a deck of cards with random mon- sters on it. If your card is stronger, then you win their cards. This teaches children a good lesson in gambling, I think. But then again, who cares when you can just get your parents to buy more at the dime store? There's also marketing galore that crosses over to just about every facet of our daily life, acter doing nondescript Pokemon things. All of this in conjunction with the daily cartoon show and the movie that brought in more than $30 million last weekend alone�classifies a phe- nomenon in my book. My best ad- vice: move to Singapore. They'd cane those critters quicker than you could say Pikac. This writer can be contacted at rdennemur@studentmedia.ecu.edu. OPINION COLUMN Bad people make good seem even better Christie Marra OPINION WRITER I believe that a vast majority of people in the world fall under two cat- egories�the good and the bad. It seems that for each good person we meet there are always at least two bad ones. I'm not sure why this is. Maybe it's someone's way of mak- ing us keep our feet on the ground and not be too trusting of others, like a defense mechanism of sorts. Per- haps, it's just that there are so few of the good ones around anymore. I guess that all of those bad people make you realize how truly lucky you are to know some genuinely nice people�for Instance, when you wait on those people in a restaurant cheap enough to leave $1 tip on a $30 meal. Yes, those people really do exist and some of them are probably reading this right now. You see, that table makes you ap- preciate those that leave you $10 af- ter their $30 meal even more. No, I'm not going to complain about cheap people or lousy tippers; instead I'm going to thank the numerous bad, cheap, mean, rude, demeaning dregs of society. First, I'd like to thank the noisy people who live downstairs from me. I appreciate the way you blare what you call music when I have a big Spanish four exam the next morning. Also, I really love those nights when you make it your mission to not let me get a restful, undisturbed night of sleep. If it was not for you guys, I wouldn't be half as grateful as I am for the quiet next-door neighbors. You have made me aware of the fact that one can actually function on two hours of sleep. I am indebted to the rude cash- iers at a major discount store chain (I won't name any names but it's the one with the grocery store). On days when I have no choice I have to go in and wait two years in line only to have someone feel it's part of their job to act as though helping any cus- tomer is far worse than sliding down razor blades into a pool of iodine. If it were not for your "friendly" per- sonalities any past, pleasant shopping experiences anywhere wouldn't have been quite as pleasurable An even bigger note of thanks for what you did on those days when 1 would have seen nuclear annihilation as the perfect ending to a less than perfect day. A much overdue note of recogni- tion goes to any rude professor or teacher I have had through my never- ending education. All of you make weekends and holidays some of the greatest times on earth. For your un- forgiving attendance policies, and the fact that you dropped my grade a let- ter because I was on my deathbed� thanks. Also, the way you embar- rassed me in front of the class when I got the answer wrong made me thor- oughly enjoy your class and teach- ing style. It's teachers like you who make me truly adore those who are flexible and will cut me just a little slack. Someone once said, "Little friends may prove great friends That per- son was so right in their thinking. I imagine he knew a few genuinely caring people with no ulterior mo- tives. Any of you mentioned have affected a part of my life more than you realize. To those I forgot, I'm sure there's someone out there who would . like to thank you for something.

Dry ASSISTANT FEATURES EDITOR America is considered a melting pot for different cultures. As Americans, we are the product of the customs and tradi- tions we have been exposed to over the years. The Hispanic heritage is one culture a number of individuals call their own, and it is captivating many Americans through the mediums of media, authentic cuisine, culture and language. Over the years, more people from Hispanic descent have been coming to the States, bringing with them the "flavor" of their respective countries. Americans can find a restaurant and dine on authentic Spanish cuisine easily, or turn on the radio and hear traditionally Latin beats from artists who, at many times, are not Hispanic. According to Dr. Dale Knickerbocker, an associate Span- ish professor, Latin sounds have been present in some of the music we have been listening to for many years. "Many years ago, Anglo musicians incorporated Spanish rhythms into their own music, allowing the Latins to come forth with their music Knickerbocker said. Since we have already had a taste of these rhythms, it's not so far-fetched to love the sounds that are being produced by today's popular Hispanic artists such as Big Punisher, Jennifer Lopez, Marc Anthony, Selena, Fat Joe and Enrique lglesias.

A number of consumer products are equipped with instruc- tions and warnings to accommodate both English and Spanish speakers, while businesses announce their bilingualism with signs stating "se habla espanol" (we speak Spanish). According to Knickerbocker, more businesses will hire bilin- gual employees in order to attract more Hispanic clientele. One prime example of the need for a bigger Spanish-speaking work force occurred during Hurricane Floyd. "A lot of the staff and faculty spent time during the flood with the American Red Cross as interpreters Knickerbocker said. Students are making an effort to learn more about the lan- guage and the culture. According to senior Quintin Gillus, the Spanish language is so smooth it captivated him, making him want to learn more about it. He found it to be a very relaxed culture. "The Spanish culture Is accepting and open to people from other cultures Gilfus said. "And once you learn the language you can use it right away because of the growing population here Here in Greenville, the Hispanic population has grown over the years.

Research team measures flood's psychological effects on students NDSU team's findings assists victims Nina M. Dry ASSISTANT FEATURES EDITOR Although almost a month has gone by since Hurricane Floyd bull- dozed through Greenville, the ef- fects of the storm are still being felt by many people in North Carolina. With all the trauma that has oc- curred lately, many people from all over the country have been doing what they can to assist North Caro- lina residents. Recently, a hurricane research team from North Dakota State University visited ECU to of- fer testing and treatment in post- disaster adjustment. Clinical psychologist and North Dakota State University psychology professor, Dr. Kit O'Neill, headed the research with the assistance of two second-year graduate students. Their interest in this particular type of research came from dealing with a situation like the flood damage caused by Floyd. "North Dakota had a major flood in 1997 said O'Neill.

One part of the testing included collecting in- formation from people. "We provided them with activi- ties designed to assist them with recovery from the flood O'Neill said. For example, the team had the participants fill out questionnaires and write about flood related expe- riences and how they are recover- ing. "This has been beneficial for people who are recovering from di- sasters O'Neill said. Another part of the testing dealt with saliva samples that were taken. According to O'Neill, this is done in order to measure the amount of cortisol, a stress-related hormone, that is in a person's system.

According to Mary Pipher, author of "Reviving Ophelia: Saving the Selves of Adoles- cent Girls young women may have it much worse. Young women's difficul- ties with developing their values, and this leads to more problems in the future. Instead of getting their values - from parents and elders, they get them from magazines and peers that tell them how to dress, how much to weigh, how to talk and tell them to be sexually active at an early age. Pipher reports around five case studies per topic, naming them after the girl's first name and age. Her topics range from drug and alcohol abuse to rape; from; ; divorce to clothing choices and from depression to eat: � ; ing disorders. All of these things contribute to what she calls "girl poisoning the Idea that the environ-1 ment and society turn young women into overdepen � dent and self-absorbed adults.

It's an eye-opening epiphany of the terrors of growing up female in the teenage years. The only problem with the book is that it repeats itself in its metaphors a little too often, so it can feel like you're reading the same chapter over again and again.

There's Jesus said Shenika Wright in a poem she read during the play "After the Storm In the aftermath of Hurricane Floyd, the Thespians for Diversity reached out to the commu- nity to offer hope and consolation to those affected by the flood. "After the Storm is a play about a woman who goes through many trials and tribulations, only to gain peace at the end said Dr. Reginald Watson, an assis- tant professor in the English department, who helped the Thespians for Diversity put on this play. After writing "Storm author Rudy Peele asked the Thespians for Diversity to help her put on the produc- tion. "The play is a way for people to deal with the after- Floyd blues, uplift some spirits and give people some hope Watson said. Wright read an opening poem she had written to go along with the play after one of the Thespians sang "Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen The play begins with a woman who is raising three children of her own who has just experienced the death of her mother. Her troubles multiply as she moves from place to place and from job to job. Eventually, her baby girl dies. But no matter what she loses, her faith in God stays strong. "It was really an uplifting play because it clearly showed that God can bring you out of any storm and any situation said student Kristen Brown, who at- tended the play. Wright said the Thespians for Diversity have been working on the production for about a month and a half now. "The meaning behind the play is that no matter what we go through, we will always come out of it even- tually Wright said. All proceeds from Tuesday's play went to benefit the flood victims and can goods were collected as well. There will be another performance at 7 p.m on Dec. S at Martin Community College.

Dayne delivers record run to become No. 1 Now he's the Greatest Dayne. Ron Dayne broke the major-college career rushing record Saturday on a 31-yard run with 4:32 left in the second quarter of No. 9 Wisconsin's 41-3 win over Iowa. The run gave Dayne 6,288 rushing yards in his career, breaking the record of 6,279 set just last year by Texas' Ricky Williams.

Pirates top Cincinnati JL in the whole country t Team regains winning form Stephen Schramm SPORTS EDITOR Before the 1999 sea- son began, Head Coach Steve Logan stressed one thing to his team: not losing two games in a row. Following the team's first loss to Southern Miss, the Pi- rates whipped Tulane 52-7. With the team's loss to UAB last week, Logan saw the need to respond with a victory over Cincinnati. "We made a big, big, big issue preseason about not losing two games in a row Logan said. "Both times that we lost, we've responded and gotten a victory The Bearcats came Bobby Russell) into Greenville with the nation's strongest punt de- fense. On the Bearcats first punt, ECU's Keith Stokes took it back 94 yards for the opening score. The Bearcats came in having allowed only three sacks all season. By game's end, the Bearcats' quarter- backs had been sacked three more times and hit on almost every play. "I thought we played with a lot of heart today said quarterback David Garrard. "It was just a great showing by our offense The win gave the Pirates eight wins on the season. "An eight win season is extraordinary, by any measure Logan said. "There won't be but IS, 18 teams Richard Alston carries the ball against Cincinnati, (photo by in the whole country that win eight games. It's an ac- complishment, and I'm very proud for the kids The win combined with UAB's loss earlier in the day assured the Pirates of a top three finish in C-USA and a bowl bid. "Getting to a bowl game, I don't care what school you're at, is just big- ger than big Logan said. "It's a goal for every pro- gram, that starts out every August. Everybody's talking about going to a bowl game The Pirates opened up a 31-9 lead at halftime. The offensive outburst began following the game's open- ing drive, when the Pirates forced the Bearcats to punt. Stokes received the punt inside the ECU 10-yard line. He hit a seam in the Bearcat punt coverage, faked out the punter and easily scored. "Once I caught the ball, my blockers did a real good job Stokes said. "There was a big hole in the middle, and it was me and the kicker, and I knew the kicker wasn't going to tackle me Coming into the game, the Bearcats had only al- lowed 19 yards on punt returns all year. "Our punt return team took that real personal, to come out there with a big challenge, and we came up to the challenge today real well Stokes said. Stokes broke Tommy Bullock's single game punt- return yardage record, gaining 148 return yards. See PIRATES, page'9 Pernell Griffin, left, is rumored to be one of the better trash talk- ers on the Pirate squad, (photo by Bobby Russell) back, talking trash is part of the job. The game within the game Stephen Schramm SPORTS EDITOR Football is a game dictated by physical strength and detailed strategy. Fans see passes and blocks, cut- backs and tackles; but what most fans don't realize is that there Is an underlying mental aspect to the game. During the course of a game, players try to throw opponents off their game any way they can. Whether it be with a late hit or a celebration after a crushing tackle, players will try to gain any advan- tage they can. Both methods are illegal in college football and will be greeted with a flag. However, there is one thing that players can do on the field to get into another player's mind that does not warrant a penalty and can go unnoticed by coaches and offi- cials; trash talk. "It can get you hyped. It can get the crowd going because the other team's frustrated said running back Jamie Wilson. Trash talk has been around as long as football. Whether coaches like it or not, almost every team does It. ECU is no different. "Sometimes, I've got to say what I've got to say said linebacker Pernell Griffin. "Ifs just part of the game The Pirates don't claim to be among the loudest mouths in college football, but they will talk when provoked. �We're pretty laid back said cornerback Kevin Monroe. "We don't necessarily talk trash unless they start it with us "I talk only if the guy says something first said flanker, LaMont Chappell. "If they think their good or say something conceded in the paper, then I may go out there and start talking, to see if I can get them out of their game a little bit For players at certain positions, such as running "I get hit on every play, so I'll tell them to 'bring it or talk about their mama every once in a while. Nothing really dirty, but I like to keep stuff going Wilson said. Some teams talk worse than others. "Houston, they were pretty bad Wilson said. "They talk a lot of junk. Their (defensive backs) were kind of small so they had to do something to try and get our mind off the game. Southern Miss, they talked a lot of junk since they beat us. They were like, Thanks for the Liberty Bowl tickets While the Pirates claim not to be too big on talk- ing junk, certain members of the team can jaw with anyone. "Rashon Burns, he talks trash to everybody, he's always out there trying to get something started Wilson said. Bums tries to keep his oratory confined to the practice field. "I really do talk a lot in practice, because what happens in that is that, you get your defensive guys that prepare you for the game each week, you get them fired up and they want to show you up. It makes you play harder and, in actuality, it makes me a better player'Bums said. Burns does not claim to be among the best talk- ers in games. "Game wise, I try to keep it toned Bums said. "I try to let whatever I do speak for Itself Another Pirate has gained a reputation for being able to get into the heads of opponents. "I think Pernell Griffin can do it with the best of them Monroe said. "Ifs like, 'I'm coming back! You'll see me every- day, I'll be in your nightmares Griffin said. And what do opponents say to Griffin, the Pi- rates' leading tackier? "There really haven't been too many people talk- ing Griffin said. This writer can be contacted at sportsffitudentmedia.ecu.edu. Stokes has helped the Pirates to an 11.5 yard per punt return average.(photo by Bobby Russell) Stokes provides spark for offense Return man key to season's success Stephen Schramm SPORTS EDITOR As an offensive coordinator in 1990, Steve,(,ogan begged then Head Coach Bill Lewis for a return man�a player whose only job was returning kicks. Lewis obliged and gave Logan a scholarship. Logan then found his man in junior college transfer Dion Johnson. Johnson had a productive career in the purple and gold as a return man and a wide receiver. Last year, Logan found himself in the same situa- tion, scouring the junior college ranks for a quick fix to a kick return game that lacked punch. "We got Dion Johnson in 1990 and he impacted our program, and I was trying to recreate the magic, again with the same attitude Since Johnson, few junior college transfers have played for the Pirates. "We've really divorced ourselves from junior col- lege recruiting over the last five or six years Logan said. "We've done really zero Just like he did in 1990, Logan found his man. This time it was Georgia Military College's Keith Stokes. Stokes, from Dothan, Ala. ran back six punts for touchdowns last season. � "He was extraordinary in junior college, But he's about five-foot-six, and that's why we got him Lo- gan said. "But he can play the game with the big boys Stokes has proven that he can indeed play with the big boys. "Keith is an impact football player Logan said.

Cincinnati finally broke into the end zone with a I a Da r is Vann touchdown catch in the second quarter. The Pirates had trouble in their past two games run- ning the ball. Against Houston and UAB, the Pirates rushed for 76 yards on the ground. Against Cincinnati, the Pirates racked up 244 yards on 45 carries. Junior Leonard Henry got the start at the running back slot for ECU. Henry started ahead of fellow junior Wilson. "He played a great game Wilson said, who rushed for 87 yards on IS carries. "He went out and ran hard, he just got his opportunity and took advantage of it Henry was the Pirates' leading rusher on the day, gaining 95 yards on 16 carries. Cruising 48-19 late in the fourth quarter, Logan was playing his second and third units, when the Bearcats made it interesting. A Robert Cooper one-yard touchdown run made the score 48-26. Following an onside kick, Vann scored on a touchdown pass from David Bertucci to make It 48-32. Mays scored the two point conversion to cut the East Carolina lead to 14 with under a minute to go.

Wicked Wednesday Mercury Cinema: Shakespeare In Love 7:30pm Hendrix SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE R) Romantic comedy set in London in the late 16th century: Young playwright William Shakespeare struggles with his latest work "Romeo and Ethel the Pirate's Daughter A great fan of Shakespeare's plays is young, wealthy Viola who is about to be married to the cold- hearted Lord Wessex, but constantly dreams of becoming an actress. Women were not allowed to act on stage at that time (female roles were played by men, too), but dressed up as a boy, Viola successfully auditions for the part of Romeo. Soon she and William are caught in a forbidden romance that provides rich inspiration for his play. SOUTH PARK (R) South Park is a quiet and peaceful place until the latest Terrance and Philip movie comes out. Once all the kids see it, all hell breaks loose, as the parents try to find a way to stop their kids from saying all the naughty words coming out of their mouths. The parents blame Terrance and Philip, place them under Citizen's Arrest, and declare ware on their home country, Canada. It is up to the kids to save the world from Satan and keep Terrance and Philip from being executed.

TheFountainhead recognizes this year's best Halloween party Patrick McMahon StaffWriltr Many of you may have seen me last week, handing out fliers advertising our Halloween Party of the Year Contest here at the Foun- tainhead. But judging from the response, maybe you didn't. Anyway, I acquired some inside information on the good parties, took my trusty camera in hand and set out Halloween weekend in search of the most outra- geous parties. The contes- tants had a chance to win a $20 gift certificate to CD Al- ley, who was gracious enough to sponsor the con- test. I set out for my friend's house Friday night to check and see what they had heard of. I couldn't get into the parking lot without being surrounded by people. Over- whelmed by the immense crowd, I had to see where all these people were coming from. It took me 10 minutes to reach the apartment of the eventual winner. There had to be at least 200 people there! I looked all around for the guys throwing the party, but to my sheer amazement and joy it was a group of girls that had the cajones to break some laws conducting this party. It was wild and out of hand, just the way I like it. They really took their apart- ment complex to a new level. The proud hosts of the party and winners of our Halloween Party of the Year were none other than Lauren Behrends, Wendy Snyder, Misty Ash and Tania Hit' sHH y JM BuL' E&r Bff3 ft �jfl That's what he gets for washing down Jim Beam with Texas Pete. Cruse of apartment 28 in Player's Club. Honorable mentions go to apartments 105 and 128 for the prodigious outpour- ings of people and beer, and also to the perpetrator of that really stupid act that re- sulted in a couple of people going to the hospital. I'm not going to mention any names and most likely the only people who know what I am talking about were the ones involved. Hey man, I hope you get back what you lost, but jeez, what were you thinking? You could have killed somebody! Best of luck in all you guys' recovery. Second place goes to Theta Chi's late night on Saturday night. Unfortu- nately, I wasn't able to at- tend, so I sent my photogra- pher instead. Judging by his pictures and stories, it must have a sight to see. The weekend went off without a hitch and I would like to thank Gil at CD Al- ley for his great assistance in sponsoring us. You really set it off. Thanks to everyone who participated, and start looking for our future con- tests. .

Some of those movies are awfully funny and become cult classics (the Evil Dead se- ries comes to mind), but most are just poor pieces of work haunted by weak premises, bad acting and even worse scripts. House on Haunted Hill is a re-make of a 1950s Vincent Price movie, which means it's like a � regular bad horror movie done up with new hip actors and neat special effects. But at least this movie doesn't start to putrefy until the last moments. Geoffrey Rush plays Steven Price, the owner of an amusement park and de- signer of rides that does a wonderful job of scaring the hell out of people. His wife, Famke Janseen, has an idea for throwing a Halloween party in a building that was once a sanitarium. Rush and Janseen have an interesting relationship: he's a sick piece of crap and she mar- ried him for the money, so you can imagine the rest. The guest list consists of five people who need money, and the premise of Stay away, but only because it sucks. (World Wide Web photo). the party is that all those who survive the night get 1 million dollars apiece. Re- maining guests get to divvy a dead guest's money among themselves. All five characters, Peter Gallagher, a doctor; Taye Diggs, former baseball player; Ali Larter, a secretary and Bridgette Wilson, a . former TV personality ac- cept their invitations. Chris Kattan, the owner of the house, is added to the list. Through the early stages of the movie, Rush thinks that he is in control of things happening in the house, which has a curious mind of its own. Kattan repeatedly tells the guests, "It's the house, were all gonna die And he's right to a point. The thing about this house is that the doctor who ran the sanitarium is a real nut job who thought it was fun to torture his patients. The doctor has some serious CD REIIEW What do they put in that sauce ? G-Loveandthe special sauce keep flavor Robbie Schwartz Staff Writer The innovators who mix folk, rap and blues to form their own sound have re- leased a fourth album called Philadelphonic. G. Love and Special Sauce have put together an album after two years in the studio that should appeal to the masses as a whole. Every tune on Philadelphonic evokes some type of feel- ing; the album does every- thing from making you want to get out of your seat and jam to helping you chill on the couch. Perhaps the best song on Philadelphonic is its second track called "Dreamin Sampling from the song Clarence Reid's "Clean Up Woman the tune combines a phat beat with a good mes- sage about never giving up on dreaming. Dedicating the song to his friend, Mario Bradley, and "to all the good people who had the courage to follow a personal dream G. Love reminds us that "dreams are like fish, you got to keep on reeling For the first time, G. Love reveals a little bit of a religious side with the song "Numbers The song has a spoken intro taken from Baird T. Spalding's Life and twitching problems, which come out during his appear- ances. He is the creepiest part of the movie. But for some reason, he disappears with- out a trace halfway through the film. The really bad stuff is in the basement, but I won't give it away. Once the base- ment scene is over, there's no point in staying; might as well just go home at that point. This mdvie has a lot of twists. An audience member might think that at least four different characters might be calling the shots in the house. Ghoulish parts abound, although most of them in- see THRILLER page4 Teaching of the Masters of the Far East. The song also re- fers to one of G. Love's greatest influences, Bob Dylan. Some points in the day there are times in which you just want to kick back and relax. For that, the album of- fers the slower tempo track "Relax which could easily be mistaken for a Pink Floyd track.

Help art students and yourself by supporting the Ceramics Guild Maura Buck Staff Writer ECU is known regionally and nationally for its strong fine arts program. The Ce- ramics Guild is one division of the program that includes students from the fine arts department who aspire to careers as ceramic artists. The purpose of this non- profit organization is to bring together groups of students that foster the same occupa- tional aspirations and intro- duce them to a number of at last week's Ceramics Guild unique experiences. This year, for example, some of the students will be attending a national confer- ence on ceramics in Colo- rado. The guild also spon- sored a ceramics convention earlier this semester. The group is committed to continually furthering the knowledge of its exclusive trade by bringing in the world's most renowned and well-respected artists, to col- lecting and sending funds to" a small number of students and holding national confer- ences around the country. To fund such beneficial ' experiences, the association participates in a number of sales every year, in- cluding a Christmas sale which will be held this year Dec. 2-4 in the first and second floor lobby of the Jenkins Building. Although the Ce- ramics Guild will be attending, representa- tives from the other schools within the fine arts program will be selling items varying -aj from ceramics and rings to silk scarves and wooden cutting boards, with prices ranging from $10-$100. "The strongest quality of the organiza- tion is getting in visit- ing artists said Meleya Rhodes, presi- dent of the Ceramics Guild and a ceramics major. "It introduces us to fine arts around the world Last year alone, the guild brought in artists from Ja- pan, Norway and Australia as well as various cities within the US. This enables students to make a number of contacts and enjoy new ideas along with a wealth of creativity from all over the world. Un- doubtedly, the entire point of the organization is to strive to better each member by offering once-in-a-lifc- time educational opportuni- ties that will forever influ- ence the individual's life and career. One way to aid the stu- dents involved is by visiting the sales they hold and pur- chasing goods they create. Quality pieces provide buy- ers a chance to benefit while helping fellow students go places to improve their knowledge of the trade. If you are a fine arts ma- jor in the division of ceram- ics, look for posters around the Jenkins Building for in- formation about meetings. The fee is $5 annually which gives members the privilege of participating in the sales and voting on which artists to bring in. Members are also able to re- quest money from various venues synonymous with the club to aid in paying for summer school classes. If you're only interested in collecting art, there is much to gain by supporting these young artists. This Christmas, pick up some- thing unusual and beautiful from the Ceramics Guild for that someone you care about while supporting our fabu- lous and remarkably creative art students.

The performances given by Rush and Janseen are the only ones worth mentioning because they were the only decent ones.

Philadelphonic is the group's first CD with pro- ducer T. Ray. Vocalist G. Love plays guitar and the harmonica. Jimi "Jazz" Prescott plays acoustic bass and Jeffrey Clemens is on the drums and percussion instruments. G.

Sound familiar? Doesn't it just seem like this is the best the filmmakers can offer us lately? Oh, sure, they have their Fight Club and their American Pie occasionally, but for the most part, we be- lieve it be nothing short of camel crap. Take for example the horror movie genre in the last few years. First there came Scream, a movie that didn't "reinvent" the horror movie, but pretty much "recycled" it. Then came the sequel, which instead of making you scared, it settled for just making you jump, much like its predecessor. I'm pretty sure that the third install- ment (due this Christmas) will not be much differentjust more beauti- ful faces to hack up. Then came the spinoffs, such as Urban Legend, I Know What You Did Last Summer, and StiU Know. I Have a Pretty Good Idea of What You '11 Be Doing Nfxt Summer will probably follow. All of these movies are just a little too hip for me, as if the ending credits should include the words "Tampax was there And these ridiculous ac- tion movies these days are, well, ridiculous. The best example that comes to mind is that recent movie with Cuba Gooding Jr. and Skeet "I wish I was Johnny Depp" Ulrich about fry cooks and nuclear weapons. You know, I'd rather watch Marilyn Manson show what he can do without those extra ribs than sit through something like that. We here at The Fountain- head, which is America's fa- vorite entertainment magazine (right?) believe that if movies are going to cost seven bucks to attend, they should be worth at least half that. No more movies with the stars of TV's Friends playing baseball with monkeys or passing up Gweneth Paltrow for somebody's mother. No more cops who play by their own rules, no more Van Damme. Just more Christopher Walken and Johnny Depp, thank you.

"It's ridiculous and em- barrassing Frances Moun- tain said Friday, moments before squatting on the courtroom floor alongside her ex-husband to choose first from a pile of dozens of stuffed toys. Maple the Bear was the first to go, as a few people in the gallery snickered. Frances and Harold Mountain divorced four months ago and, according to the divorce decree, were supposed to split their Beanie Baby collection, esti- mated to be worth between $2,500 and $5,000. But they failed to do so, and after Mountain filed a motion to get his share of the litter, the judge said he had had enough. "Because you folks can't solve it, it takes the services of a judge, a bailiff and a court reporter Family Court Judge Gerald Hardcastle told the ex- couple. Sunken seaplane found In LakeChamplain FERRISBURGH, Vt. (AP) The bottom of Lake Champlain is continuing to offer surprises to scientists using an underwater camera to map the bottom. Now it's a 50-year-old seaplane, sunk in about 200 feet of water, between Ferrisburgh and Westport, N.Y. "It's pretty strange said Arthur Cohn, director of the maritime museum, which is conducting an underwater survey of Lake Champlain. "We found 40 shipwrecks, but this is the first aircraft The single-engine sea- plane was found this sum- mer by a team of museum researchers. The plane was discov- ered lying upside down. With its wings and body still intact, the plane doesn't ap- pear to have crashed. Cohn thinks it sank while floating on the water. "It was in such good con- dition, we didn't know if it went down a week ago or years ago said Cohn. The museum contacted the Federal Aviation Admin- istration in Burlington and the New York State Police, hoping to trace the origin of the aircraft, a Republic Seabee, built in 1947. At first, police thought the plane might have been involved in some illicit activ- ity, namely drug smuggling, because its demise went tin- reported and its registration numbers didn't check out. But it was later deter- mined that the plane's regis- tration had not been re- newed since 1955, leading Cohn and others to believe that the craft went down not long after that. Given its age, police have ruled out foul play, Cohn said. There are no plans to recover the aircraft. "We believe there are people in the Champlain Valley who know about this incident said Cohn. "We hope they will come forward and help solve this mystery More previously un- known relics have been found at the lake bottom, also. "This summer, survey- ors also discovered 10 wooden boats mostly canal boats and other historic sail- ing vessels, dating back to the 19th century Cohn said. The lake survey project started in 19. Cohn ex- pects it will take another four years before researchers have surveyed the entire lake bottom. . � 111199 top 10 list :noui SHOume Thursday November 11 Backdoor: New Society of Anarchists Cat's Cradle: Mr. Bungle The Cellar: In Tune Enter- tainment Karaoke (10:00 PM) Peasant's Cafe: Chupacabra Sports PadSplash: In Tune Entertainment Karaoke (10:00 PM) Underwater Cafe: (Mug Nite) (World Wide Web photo).

FLHOR OF THE UIEEH : Hell Night '99 pounds Peasant's iWriterstopstosmeU Ithe sulphur Halloween at Peasant's � Patrick "scared of his own �shadow" McMahon "StaffWriter ? Oct. 31 signals the bring- �ing out of the of the de- mons, the spirits and the ?mystic followers of the 'night. Halloween is a time for the darker side of the 'world to reveal itself in all its �gory gory- Peasant's Cafe was the hallowed place �where many chose to spend this evil night, and those that attended the annual �Hell Night celebration of ametal were greeted with �outlandish sounds and fierce 'shows. It was a night to re- nicmber. The night featured four �bands who were equally Qualified in the crunch-and- go metal sounds that have "been absent from the Ameri- can landscape for so long. ,The place was packed from the get-go and the fans in at- vtendance eagerly awaited each song as if their very souls depended on it. The pure adrenaline that flowed through the air was some- thing to behold as numerous people sported the glassy .red eyes that only such a Jrush can produce. � The night opened up tear it up. with a bang as Mini Void rocked the night awake with their unique blend of hyper vocals and a full-on assault of sound. As someone who only dabbles in metal (COC and Godsmack are the only disks I have), they truly brought me in for the kill and thoroughly delivered without a hitch. Then came another vi- sual and sonic assault in UNSOUND. More like UN- GODLY. That's probably the only way I can describe their sound. Time after time, they used music to lure the listeners in and then blasted them back with more and more sound. The effect was like a giant hurri- cane blowing you back into a trampoline that bounced you back in for another gust of wind. Up next came the much- anticipated return of Dan Heath at drums for Kuttphat's performance. Af- ter a nine-month hiatus, Heath returned with a ven- geance. The bass and heavy, almost helicopter-like beat- ing of the drums were im- pressive. While not entirely drum-driven, the sound was kick-ass. The vocals were loud and aggressive and the accompaniment was rock- solid as well. The combina- tion of Heath and irrepress- ible vocals made this the band of the night. Well, they would have been if 7 Ton Diesel hadn't shown up. If you ever plan to see Ton Diesel perform live, do not, I repeat, do not wear ear plugs. You need to feel the music as well as hear it. Just make sure you are healthy and have no heart ailments because these guys will surely beat you to death with sound. Picture a 7-ton diesel engine and the pure and unadulterated noise it's capable of producing. With that image in mind, you can get a pretty close assump- tion as to the nature of the band's delightful show of ag- gressive sonic blasting. Attacking in full Hallow- een garb and displaying their love for pure noise, they pushed the crowd into a frenzy. I thought the owner of Peasant's was about to poop in his britches because everyone moved in a manner that reminded me of a riot. With devilish vocals and heavy bass and drums, these guys wanted to pulver- ize the joint into the ground with a sledgehammer and then run over everyone's heads with a John Deere lawnmower. Surprisingly, they did all this without making my qjrs bleed or giving me a head- ache from the music. If you missed Hell Night '99, you missed one hell of a show.

But judging from the response, maybe you didn't Anyway, I acquired some inside information on the good parties, took my trusty camera in hand and set out Halloween weekend in search of the most outra- geous parties. The contes- tants had a chance to win a $20 gift certificate to CD Al- ley, who was gracious enough to sponsor the con- test. I set out for my friend's house Friday night to check and see what they had heard of. I couldn't get into the parking lot without being surrounded by people. Over- whelmed by the immense crowd, I had to see where all these people were coming from. It took me 10 minutes to. reach the apartment of the eventual winner. There had to be at least 200 people there! I looked all around for the guys throwing the party, but to my sheer amazement and joy it was a group of girls that had the cajones to break some laws conducting this party. It was wild and out of hand, just the way I like it. They really took their apart- ment complex to a new level.

Now, their case, Southworth vs. Grebe, is headed for the U.S. Supreme Court. In the case, students Scott Southworth, Amy Schoepke and Keith Bannach � who have since graduated � claim that paying mandatory fees that go toward campus organi- zations that oppose their ideo- logical or political beliefs is a violation of their free-speech rights. Meanwhile, the univer- sity argues that in a college atmosphere of differing view- points, all campus groups are entitled to support. "In order to attend a public university, these students are forced to fund groups who advocate opposing beliefs. I very coercive u. polls on campus: u. of georgetown SHOULD STUDENTS BE ABU TO DECIDE HOW THEIR REG FEES ARE SPENT? Photo by Robert Tony, U. of California, Berkeley Some students might disagree, but the school has to guarantee freedom of speech to all and thus use the reg fees as they see fit Hsiang Chang, sophomore Students should support the right to free speech even if they don't person- ally agree with the views of certain groups. Jodie DeSantis, junior I believe that stu- dents'ideas, beliefs and efforts should be the onty thing that drives the agenda of the university. Kevin Preis, junior Students should have control over not only their living arrange- ments and classes, but their money aba think it's If they don't pay these funds, they can't graduate, they cant get their transcripts says Jordan Lorence, the students' attorney. So far, the law seems to be siding with the students, who have gotten four more UW students to join the plaintiff list. And in a landmark ruling in August 1998. the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit decided the school did not have a "vital policy interest" compelling enough to require a student to pay fees for groups with differing ideologies. Although the court's decision only applies to uni- versities in Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin, it will probably affect the reg- ulation of student fees at public universi- ties everywhere. Stay tuned. By Tony Tang, UCLA, Editorial Intern What do you think about the reg fee debate? Answer the poll question at vryyw.umaBa2ine.c0m or e-mail editor@umagazine.com My mistake! Shortly after learning that the Doppler Shift of the stars dated the universe at roughly 15 billion years, I ran into a campus preacher. He Informed me that the universe was but several thousand years old. Imagine that! All this time, Ph.D.s from the U. of California, Berkeley. and MIT have spent decades studying and quantifying galactic redshrft, radlotsotope dating, background radlaton andcarbon-14 dating � allfornothing! It turns out that a Anger-pointing Bible-thumper, with no more than an llth-grade education, has remained one step ahead of the country's nuclear physicists. But campus preachers have to realize that they're not trained scientists. In fact, they're trained In nothing but Mind belief. Campus preachers will never convert me, and I doubt they'll convert any other stu- dents. How Ironic that a preacher who would proudly shout the Christian con- cept, "narrow Is the path to salvation, would do so on a university campus � the very place least likely to endorse a narrow mind. College Is a place for us to tran- scend simple-mindedness � a trait so flamboyantly displayed by preachers. The campus preachers around the country, narrow themselves, represent the worst part of Christianity: they are loud, offensive, prejudiced, loud and loud. While the campus preachers will never be able to change me into an Irra- tional, thoughtless creature motivated only by a desire to avoid hell, they unde- niably serve a unique and desirable purpose on campuses around the country: entertainment. Students would ask them to leave but then what would they do In between classes? Andrew Knight, MIT, is the author of At Least in Hell the Christians Wont Harass Me. available on Amaton.com.

"It was unlike anything I'd ever seen says Ryan Salvatore, a sophomore and spectator at last year's balls-out celebration.

"I believe we can no longer tolerate the risks that It has come to pose to our students. I am simply not willing to wait until a student dies before taking preventive action says the big cheese at Princeton, president Harold Shapiro.

TnHi Maal lesalai folma dick police ONLINE? VOUR COLLEGE MAY BE WATCHING IMAGINE GOING TO A COLLEGE WHERE EVERYTHING you did was monitored for good taste. Now add a computer to the hypothetical. What do you get? Acceptable Use Polices. Some schools are instituting these policies to limit how we use the Web and to make sure we act responsibly, ethically and lawfully � guess they don't trust us to do that on our own. The new emphasis on the dos and don'ts of comput- er use on campus stems from changing technologies. A few years ago, we couldn't download MP3s on the web. And we certainly couldn't view high-quality video or download large software programs instantly. Fast university connections have made it easy to down- load mondo files and hard to police � those pesky administrators can look over our shoulders in public places like computer labs and libraries, but it's almost impossible to keep an eye on us in our dorm rooms. But that's not stopping them � many campuses are squelching the download mania by limiting bandwidth. Leigh Chodos, a Boston U. senior and computer lab T.A says, "Our server limits downloads on our connection to 2MBs. which isn't large enough to download MP3s or large software programs Other common computer don'ts: e-mail spamming and viewing pages that might harass others. And the U. of Georgia takes an anti-entrepreneurial policy by forbidding advertising on personal pages hosted by the university.

You've spent 20 hours of the last week elbow deep in soap suds and cafeteria trays. You pick up your paycheck. It's peanuts. But hey, you're a college student Low-paying jobs are a pre-req, right? Thousands of students are proving that theory wrong every day. They've taken the bull by the horns and leapt on the back of today's booming . And while you're earning peanuts, they're feasting on some high-quality cashews. Some of them, anyway. Like any investment, stock trading is a risky business.

Sounds pretty ominous, but when you consider the lyrical content of Distance fo Here, Lives fourth LP. you realize the album actually has a massively positive message. Just ask Ed Kowalczyk, the bands eccentric and compassionate frontman. He says the new record is all about being more positive and loving � a message he says makes the new record unique and worthwhile, espe- cially to America's youth. "I think were on the cusp of being able to incarnate a powerful group of people who combine Intelligence, love and compassion for the world. But I think we need more and more art � even more rock 'n' roll - to create a soundtrack for moving on In love and In posltlvlty Not only does Kowalczyk talk the talk, but hell walk the walk with his upcoming tour which will bring his soundtrack of positive love vibes to college venues. "It's Important to us with this fall U.S. tour to reintegrate with our fans on a real basic level and that takes place In smaller venues he says.

Manson, who is the lead vixen of the post-industrial superband Garbage, will be the one singing Bond's theme song (with the help of an 83- piece orchestra they used to help record the track). Yet while being picked to croon the theme seems like the ultimate in golden opportunities. Manson insists it was more like destiny for her famed four piece. "We've always wanted to do a Bond theme, literally from the first day we came together, it was something we could do lustice to. A lot of it has to do with the sound of my voice - it's quite lower than some of the girls who have done Bond themes in the past - they have all had sort of girlie voices she says. "I also think the way the Bond songs are put together is sort of the same as the way we put songs together, in that you take something that is essentially tradi- tional with some technological and classical elements � something that seems very pop-oriented and easy to digest at the surface, but if you dig deeper, should you wish, there are sort of threads in a darker vein The video is already in circulation on MTV, and soon enough Garbage will also be in circulation via MTV as they ready to headline MTV's fall College Invasion Tour in support of last year's multi platinum album Version 2 0. "We wanted to come and tour the States before we quit this whole cycle, and we were tying to put a tour together at the same lime as MTV approached us to see if we would be interested ,n doing the Campus invasion. Seerng as how we have such a huge following in the schools around Amenca we thought it would make a really good package for our fans Manson says. The College Invasion Tour also includes Orange County rockers Lit (you know, those guys in the bowling videol and a free interactive daytime festival with booths where concert-goers watch videos, play Playstation games, try out to be part of The Real World cast o, even learn how to mix and sc-sc sc scratch records with lessons provid ed by a guest DJ. As hard as it is to believe, the College Invasion gig will be Garbage's first ever col- lege-oriented tour. -Sometimes these things just don't work out. Sometimes when we're touring, the colleges aren't in session or vice versa, and this is the first time it has ,ust sort of clicked for our schedule. It's great because we know that a groundswell of our support comes from the colleges and universities of America, and this seems like a great way to finish up the tour No kidding.

We're going to differ- ent colleges next year and he says that we should have sex before leaving for college to prove our love for each other. I'm not sure. What do you think? Do It or Don't?, soon-to-be- freshman at U. of Oregon Dump the creep! He's WAY out of line. Save yourself for someone who respects U and is less immature than trying to get U knocked up. � Liz, Whlttler College We've been dating for more than two years, and we've never had sex. In the fall, we'll be going to different colleges but we are still going to wait. We think it proves that we love each other by keeping our relationship alive over the distance instead of using the separation as an excuse for sex. It's easy to have sex but waiting really proves how much you care about each other. Why would sex prove your love? People have sex all the time for reasons other than love. If you really were in love you would know it and wouldn't need to prove it with sex. � Dan and Karri, U. of Louisville and Anbury College Don't do it! In fact, unless you two are going to the same college, break it off now, or at least agree to see other people. There are so many opportunities that you will miss out on because you're attached to someone who isn't at the same school. The missed opportunities and jealousy will tear the relationship apart. � Chris, U. of Cincinnati If I were you when your boyfriend made that statement, I would have slapped him in the head. You don't have to have sex to prove your love before you go to col lege or for any other reason! There are other ways to show your love for one another: send each other mushy letters or silly presents, talk on the phone or make a video of yourself telling your boyfriend how much you love him and miss him. There are so many alternatives, you just have to have a creative mind. Sex should be special, not a good-bye tactic, especially if you are both virgins. Do it when you feel it's right and for the right reasons, not because you're leaving for college. � Marcle Personally I think you should have sex with him. If you're going to different col leges, but you're planning on sticking together then you won't have many other chances to do it. And if you're planning on breaking up after senior year do it anyway, because if he sucks you won't feel quite as bad leaving him, and if he's good you can get a few pointers for when you go to college. � Emily. Bryn Mawr College Have you no respect for yourself? Having sex is not the way for you to prove your love to each other, even if you really want to and are completely ready for it. Based on the fact that you are questioning it at all suggests to me that you are not completely ready. If you were, you would have done it willingly already. If he wants to prove his love to you, he should respect your comfort zone, not pres- sure you into giving in to his carnal desires. � Adrian Breltenbach, Metropolitan State College of Denver MY FRIEND BOUGHT A TERM PAPER dear blabby, My friend and I are in the same English class and we had to write a paper for our final. I worked really hard and got a B- but my friend bought her paper off the Internet and got an A. Now she's bragging about how easy it is to get good grades. Should I rat on her? Honest Abe at New York U. Rat on her! You know very well the policy that we have here at NYU: no plagiarism You are doing no good keeping youi mouth shut, you are shaming yourself and your other classmates. Many profes sors grade on a curve and your friend could be throwing off the curve. Stand up for what is right! And remember that if you do, your grade might improve. You can always write an anonymous letter to the professor and drop it in their mailbox - Christian, New York U. It is your duty to find out where your friend got the paper and report it to the professor. Crime doesn't pay. Cheaters never win. Heshe who laughs last laughs best. You owe it to yourself. � Anonymous I don't think this problem is so much about honesty as it is about you wanting to receive praise for your honesty. You did the right thing � you wrote your own paper. Don't let your friend's laziness affect you so much. Relax, it'll all come back to your friend in the long run. Karma, baby. � Vlckl, Penn State U University Park ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS FOR AN UPCOMING ISSUE My girlfriend goes to college In another state so we talk on the phone all the time.

Maybe Jabba the Hut's stench started getting to them. Whatever the rea- son, Star Wars fanatics at MIT refused to confine the force to their dorm rooms any longer. Off they went, into the night, to deco- rate the famous MIT dome as R2 D2. Destructive? Heck no. These campus pranksters acted with the honor of a jedi warrior � not only did they leave police detailed instructions on dismantling the droid, they established an excellent arrest-avoidance technique by leaving a box of dough- nuts as well. Or maybe that was just a clever way to keep the cops busy while they groomed campus grounds into one of Queen Amidala's infamous hairstyles. Stopping Stop Day? U. of Kansas For one day each year, this rebel school puts on Stop Day. a one-day deal before finals week where everyone puts the stop on everything � from homework to tests. Unfortunately, we think the power may have gone to Kansas State Us head � there is actually talk of stopping stop day. With respect to the long-standing tradition, we have only two words for those whose toes are applying the brakes: Stop it. Do the Right Thing Davidson College Thirty bucks can buy a lot of things. But it certainly can't buy sophomore Kim Gardner's high moral code. The ethical optimist, after finding $30 in the street, taped a sign to the s walk where she found the dough, requesting the rightful owner to give her a call. Turns out. the rightful owner was just to her right � it was lost by the friend with whom she'd been walking at the time. In the future. we recommend a better use for Kims masking tape: to seal up her friend's pockets. Buggin' Out Kansas State U. And you , thought excess fat on your food was a pest? Try excess pest parts. That's right. Researchers at Kansas State U. have determined that the common bug zapper � you know, that buzzing, blue-lit thingamabob hanging directly over your family picnic table � can blow bug bits like wings, antennae, legs, eyes and innards up to six feet away. Sounds yummy, huh? Well, never fear. Microbiologist James Urban has some reassuring words for fretful pic- nickers: "I don't think it's as risky as unsafe sex or something like that Assuming no one tries to get busy with one. of course.
