I still don’t know what to make of it. The white 1993 Ford Bronco traveled along the freeway with police cars and news teams and regular people in pursuit. People stopped to gawk and wave. One television news reader called it “a scene that could only happen in Southern California” but 1 was able to sit on the opposite coast and watch O.J. Simpson and Al Cowlings lead a low speed chase through those famous freeways. In fact, I could watch the Bronco on a half dozen channels, including ESPN and WGN — which split the screen so I could watch the unfolding drama without missing the Cubs game. It was one of those odd moments when millions of us were linked through the magic of modern technology — just like during the Gulf War. Sitting in my living room 3,000 miles away from the actual events, I had a better view than the people who stood behind the police barriers in Simpson’s neighborhood holding signs and chanting "Juice, Juice, Juice...” The crowds and the police and the media beat Simpson home. They were waiting in his house, along the road, in his yard — at least one police sniper was there disguised as a bush. The flock of television news helicopters hovering over the scene was so thick that they interfered with each other’s signals. They were so close to the ground that they drowned out'negotiations between Simpson and the police. Eventually Simpson, reportedly clutching photographs of his family, surrendered and that part of the show was over — though the national fascination continues. But why? Maybe this is the time for a vitriolic dissertation on the sickness that society breeds by elevating someone to demigod status because of talent or skill displayed on some play ing field or other. Or about the warping affect of the cult of celebrity. I mean, would a mechanic named Joe Smith have been allowed to schedule his surrender? Would Joe Smith have been allowed to stage that freeway melodrama? Whatever happened to news judgment? What was it about this case that justified the time and money and talent the went into covering what was, for the most part, an uneventful drive along a freeway? And what was all that talk about O.J. Simpson, Mr. Nice Guy? Isn’t he a man with a histoof spouse abuse? Isn’t that still a crime? y I’m not sure what the fascination with this stoty says about celebrity or journalism or the nation or me, but it makes me uneasy. O.J.’s long drive had the macabre appeal of a bloody car wreck or a public hanging. And there I sat, like a lab rat, transfixed by the story coming through the warm glow of the picture tube. b After Simpson surrendered, a doctor on CNN recommended that everyone get a ood night’s sleep and engage in only light exercise the next day because we were all liausted. We’d been through a trying experience, he reminded us. One reporter said, e* Simpson’s surrender, "Things, 1 think, will return to normal here shortly." 3 I wonder what he meant by normal.

and squeezed his left shoulder ... B. Rowe stated that A. Campbell told him that "any one who won’t come to me for information on me ain’t got the balls of a pig.’” Now, it wouldn’t be fair if Mr. Campbell didn’t have a chance to respond, so we asked him’about the allegations. “Mr. Rowe is playing political games. 1 have no further comment," he said. When told this, Rowe chuckled and said, “There is absolutely nothing political in what I’m doing. The rea son he did it is because I’m getting too close. What he’s doing may be legitimate, but if so, why didn’t he just give up the infor mation?”

The Jacksonville Way

0.J. the Blade

According to a recent report by People for the American Way, activities by the Religious Right have expanded all over the country at the grassroots level. A state-by state study identified activity by the conserv ative religious/political groups focusing on education, elections, legal activism and gay efforts. In Florida, there were 13 occurrences. Four of them were in Jacksonville. Now, some of them were a little dated, like Planned Parenthood’s lawsuit challenging the school system’s use of Teen Aid and Liberty and Justice for All’s attempt at ban ning The Autobiography of Malcolm X. The other two entries were just a little more recent. The first dealt with the American Family Association sponsoring AmeriFest, touted as a “God and Country Celebration.” Speakers included William Bennet, school principal Bishop Knox — who was suspendx ed for allow-

In the United States, only one thing could, and did, beat out game five of the NBA finals in television ratings — a superstar on the lam. Such was the case when the whole world stopped what they were doing and watched the so-called chase of O.J. “The Blade” Simpson. All of the media hype made us think, “What is all this doing to the value of O.J.'s football cards?" So we asked.

I8y Greg Larson fter watching Alex Rodriguez during his debut homestand with the Jacksonville Suns, 1 have only one question. How come this kid only batted .502 last year as a high school senior? And why weren’t the pitchers who got him out offered pro contracts or full college schol arships. Oops! I guess that’s two questions. Rodriguez is the shortstop out of Westminster High in South Florida. He was the first player taken in the 1993 baseball draft. He didn’t play last summer and signed last fall after a nasty contract hassle with the Seattle Mariners, finally eschewing an offer from the Miami Hurricanes. They say Rodriguez is the best high school prospect ever taken in the baseball draft and I fully believe that. This is an extremely special ballplayer, the best ballplayer the Jacksonville Suns have fielded in their 25-year Double-A Southern League exis tence. I say that after one homestand.

COMMENTARY

The

Clearing House Inc.

Nearly every woman knows an abortion story. By Victoria Donnelly

close friend visited recently, and we caught a few minutes of adult conversation while her new baby slept on a blanket at her feet. We had a cup of tea while our toddlers played outside, and talked, as we usually do. about everything from babies and husbands to our careers and the latest movie star gossip. It was just like any other afternoon we’d had together, and I can’t even remember how we got on the subject of abortion. But suddenly her voice caught, and her eyes blurred with tears, and she told me she’d had one, once, when she and her hus band were still just boyfriend and girl friend, living together in a tiny apartment in Pennsylvania. She told me all the horrible details: how, when she’d told her boyfriend about the pregnancy, he’d just assumed she’d have an abortion immediately; how hurt she’d been by that assumption, and how she’d forbidden her boyfriend to come with her to the clinic, and went with her sister instead. She talked about how upset and emotional she was for weeks afterward, even though she’d known from the start an abor-. tion was the only answer for her. Her boyfriend wasn’t ready for marriage yet, and she had barely enough money to get by herself. ITi A There was no other ptSIT choice, really, she told _____ me. But it was the worst L=—1-----day of her life. I put my arms around her, and we cried together. I’d known her for years; she knew everything there was to know about me, I thought. I thought I knew everything there was to know about her. I was wrong. It dawned on me, then, that as women most of us have abortion stories. Some are our own, and others are tales we’ve heard from friends or acquaintances. None of them are happy, and none are easy to relate. Al! are intensely personal. I guess it’s this last fact that’s made me oro-choice. As women, the stories belong to us. The decisions we make reflect our own circumstances and beliefs, the stuff that makes up the fabric of our lives. The choices must also be our own. I believe this, though like almost every ether mother I know, I can look at my own child and feel both sides of the issue. I believe it despite my own abortion story. When I was pregnant with my daughthere were early complications. I had a bladder disease and was scheduled for an

operation the week the home pregnancy test sent me to my obstetrician, elated and worried at once. The pregnancy was con firmed, the operation canceled, and the doctor hurried me out of his office, barely taking time to tell me about vitamins or medications I was taking, or answering any of the myriad of questions posed in my head. I figured out later 1 was just a tough case he wanted to wash his hands of. He was right; 1 was a tough case. My joy at the conception of the child my husband and I so desperately wanted seemed to disintegrate each day, as my disease wors ened. 1 was in constant pain, barely able to get more than an hour’s sleep at night. I couldn’t go to the bathroom without agony; I couldn’t walk without discomfort. A second obstetrician I went to indicated I might be better off ter minating the pregnancy and trying again after my next bladder opera tion. I remember crying on my husband’s shoulder one night, and realizing I just couldn’t stand the pain anymore. 1 was miser able; I was ready to have an abortion. My story, of course, ended happily. 1 picked one last obstetrician out of the yellow pages, tried one last shot before the inevitable. U This doctor took my history, then told me ffilS) IJ he’d do whatever it took to see me through the pregnancy. And he did. When I look at my daughter today, almost four years old, it’s impossible to even imagine life without her. As a parent, I have a new awareness of the loss each abortion represents. But I have an even greater empathy with women who, for their own reasons, make the decision to have one. And I applaud President Clinton’s decision to sign into legislation a bill enacting penalties against some abortion protesters who would use violence or coercion against women seek ing abortions and the medical personnel who provide them. 1 applaud Congress' decision to stop protesters from blocking access to abortion clinics. If I’d needed to walk through those doors, how much more horrible would it have been to have strangers condemning me, waving signs in front of my face, maybe screaming obscenities? And what about my friend, I wonder; did she have to endure that, too? As women, we all have abortion stories to tell. And there is no joy in the telling.

officers during a mandated four-hour training course to show how they can make a difference. The victim had never called police, but her neighbors had. When officers arrived she appeared ^m’ Sa’^ nothing was wrong and didn't file a complaint. The officers didn't file a complaint — or a report — either. Now the state mandates that officers file reports on domestic violence calls even when no one is arrested. In the case of the woman who was killed at her party, evidence of domestic violence before her death would have helped prosecutors build a case against her killer. “So reports are helpful. [They] help j prosecute,” Senterfeit said. Officers are also required to help victims seek medical attention if it’s needed. They must attempt to get a written statement from the vic tim, describe any injuries and expla,n why when no arrest is made. OfficerS are also required to tell victims about the nearest shelter and the programs that it offers. They must provide victims with a pamphlet on domestic violence descuv mg options such as injunctions for P'0-

tection, a state attorney card, a case information card and a Help for Crime Victims card. If there’s an immediate need for safety, officers can take victims of abuse to a shelter: Hubbard House, Quigley House or Betty Griffin House.’ Hubbard House serves Duval and Nassau Counties. Quigley House serves Clay County. Betty Griffin House serves St. John’s County. But the main improvement for domes tic violence victims has been the state mandated pro-arrest policy. “In years past, [officers] may have told the batterer to leave for the night,” Senterfeit said. That’s changed. “If they have probable cause, then they’re going to make that arrest,” .yo Florida is still not as pro-active as some states. According to Myrtice Craig, educational director of Hubbard House, many states mandate arrests in domestic violence cases. Florida leaves the deci sion up to the individual officer. “It does not mandate that an officer make the arrest. There’s still some discretion," Senterfeit said. Stacey Klein, a counselor at Hubbard House who moved from Boston a few months ago, said that Massachusetts’ mandatory arrest policy works well

because there is a “clear-cut domestic violence training” program. During basic training, Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office officers spend 16 hours on domestic violence. Every year, they

must attend a four hour class. The JSO also offers voluntary courses — 40 hours of training over a two week period. Captain Frank Mackesy of the JSO chairs the Domestic Violence Intervention Project. The goals of the project include protecting battered women, stopping vio lence, resolving cases in court, imposing and enforcing legal sanctions on abusers and stopping the practice of victim blam ing. Mackesy said the project was

Mackesy said the JSO does not think the mandatory arrest practice is neces sarily good. “We don’t want people going to jail when they don’t deserve to go to jail," he said. Still, according to Mackesy, the JSO is one of five agencies in the state that has fully complied with the state’s new domestic violence statutes. “If there’s one area that we’re one of the leaders in the state,” he said, “it’s proba bly domestic violence."

But some other people who deal with the problem believe there is still room for improvement. Sheila Spivey, a counselor with four years’ experience at Hubbard House, said there are officers who go beyond the call of duty and that, overall, the JSO and State Attorney’s office are doing a “fairly good job.” But she thinks more training might make further improve ments. “I think both [the JSO and the prosecutors] have a need for more sensi tive training," she said. “I think they have a lot of discretion.” Spivey believes that the pro-arrest pol icy is not clearly defined, so officers often arrest both people. For example, the victim might have bruises all over her body and the abuser might have a scratch. If he accuses her of scratching him, many officers will arrest her. “[They need] sensitive training to know sometimes women fight back to protect themselves,” Spivey said. She said when clothes are concealing the marks of abuse on a victim, a sensitive officer would know there still might be probable cause to arrest. One of the worst reactions officers have to domestic violence calls, according to Spivey, is telling the victim that if she calls again FOLIO WEEKLY JUNE 28. 1994 <I>

they will arrest both her and the abuser. This, understandably, makes the victim reluctant to call again. Spivey blames that reaction on guidelines that are “not that clear.” Spivey thinks some officers, knowing they’re in a violent situation, want to get out as soon as possible. The officers are ' “concerned with what’s going on right here and right now,” Spivey said, not about abuse that my have happened ) before. Klein agrees. She said many of her clients say they have had bad experi ences with the police. Officers might ask a victim, as soon as they arrive, if she plans to prosecute. Being scared, the vic tim might act indecisive or say she won’t i press charges. That’s when some offi cers tell her they can’t help her. “Police don’t always respond they way we want them to," Klein said.

violence case to stay away from the other — which seems to put the batterer and the victim on the same moral plain. The practice, the task force report said, sends the wrong message. It makes bat terers’ actions seem justifiable. Spivey said not following through on permanent injunctions is the main prob lem in the State Attorney’s office. If the victim fails to show up at the hearing, she must go through the whole process again and take a temporary injunction. If a victim shows up on her court date to gain the permanent injunction and the abuser doesn’t, the judge can issue another temporary injunction and set another court date. “It really depends upon the judge.” Spivey said. “They can go ahead and give her the injunction if he does not appear, if he doesn’t appear they gener ally go ahead and give it to her if he’s

Paying More For Your Wedding Dress Doesn't Make It Better ...and THAT'S A FACT! when the victim doesn’t want to. In fact, the decision to drop or try a case is at the discretion of the prosecutor. Senterfeit said prosecutors look at the evidence and determine if the case is strong enough to be winnable. On the positive side, Senterfeit said that, as suggested by the task force, pros ecutors attempt “speedy trials as opposed to letting them linger on and on.” There is a victim advocate in the state attorney’s office, another task force recommendation, to assist victims of family violence. “There is not as much of that going on now as we want in the future,” Senterfeit said. As is the case with so many public safety issues, police officers are the front line in the battle against domestic vio lence. How well they do their job often determines how well the rest of the sys tem works. And it seems that they are getting better at their job. “To me, the police officers have been allies — not always. Over the years — they’re learning more about it,” Craig said. “They’re more sensitive.” “I’m sure they [officers] are some what frustrated by the entire system,” Senterfeit said. “Sometimes 1 think they’re thinking they’re the only ones experiencing that.

Overall, the JSO has been good about training police offi cers and making them comply with Florida statutes.” “I think the JSO has done real well. ... We have a real good program in

Domestic violence is a crime that often remains in the shadows because its victims are often ashamed. lttin8 on a couch, hands shaking, '©T7 she looked beaten down. Instead iK&Aof looking people in the eye, she O. Jlooked evetywhere else. When ttaar she spoke, her lips quivered. But what she said was if an earthquake split the world in two and she was left hanging onto one edge, she could handle it. Her wounds might make you think she had already been through something that catastrophic. On her forehead, there was a deep dent that looked like it could have been made by a baseball. On and around her elbows, there were white blotches where healthy skin used to be. Her legs were covered by jeans, but she said they had similar scars, only larger. The day she arrived at the shelter with two suit cases and three children, her six-year-old daughter had told her to wear pants because her legs looked so ugly. By the time they got to the shelter, blood had soaked through her jeans. She’s short, but she isn’t a small woman. She said she used to be heavier, but her boyfriend told her she was fat, so she lost some weight. Her boyfriend used to tell her a lot of things. The day he told her he was going to kill her and her children was the day she left for the shelter. About four months into their eight-month relationship, the man who sparked her heart began beating her. He slapped her. He threw hot coffee in her face. He tried to control who she saw and where she went. He prevented her from attending her final class to get her RN degree. She contacted the police twice. Both times, the response was far from pleasing. The first time, “1 had to call the police five times. It took them 30 or 45 minutes to get there,” the victim said. Her boyfriend punched her hard enough to cut a gash down her forehead, left her lip bleeding and her shirt soaked with blood. Then he remained in her apartment while Jhe ran to a pay phone to call the police. When they arrived, the abuser darted.

“[The police officers] asked, ‘Did you call the police? Do you need assistance?”' While her head and mouth dripped blood “he asked me a stupid sarcastic question like that.” The officers asked if she wanted medical assistance, but she was too scared to go. “I knew he was gone, but I didn’t know where he had gone to.” “I gave them a picture of him and they looked for him. 1 guess they looked for him — they left my house, and they came back and said they didn’t see him.” Later she found out he was right across the street, watching through a friend's living room win dow. One officer gave her his number and name and told her if her abuser came back, or if she needed any help, to contact him. “1 knew if I call this officer he can help me.” She called the officer, leaving several mes sages over a period of a week. When he returned her calls at a friend’s house, he had no idea who she was. “So 1 just left that alone.” ~~Tor a while, she tried to pacify her ■■boyfriend by spending time with him, H doing things he liked. At the same time she started spending more time away from him. About three months later, she rented another apartment, attempting to sever ties with him. What she had hoped would be their last meeting became a con frontation that could have cost her her life.

"Whem he sped up 0 seed, Tm not gomg through thns no more" and D jumped out of the car." “This last time I was just wanting to talk to him and get some information from him to get my furniture moved and he wouldn't accept ‘No’,” she said. As she sat in her car outside of her old apartment, he tried to rip the door off. He put a knife to her throat and forced her into the passenger seat. At first she refused but hearing the screams of her three children reminded her that she couldn’t risk their safety. He drove off yelling that they were going to live together. On the way to her new apartment, he saw a police car. When he knew she had seen it, he accelerated and turned onto a side street. “When he sped up 1 said, Tm not going through this no more' and I jumped out of the car.” He slammed the car to a halt and the children jumped out. The woman sent her oldest child, the six-year-old, to get the police. She sat on the curb with battered knees and arms. Then she saw her abuser running towards her. “So 1 jumped up and started running towards the police, too.”

Domestic vioBence from the victim's pointof view. By lllena Armstrong Her abuser saw the officer, ran to her car and drove around the corner. When the officer arrived, she explained what was hap pening and he drove off in pursuit of her abuser. Another officer came and took the woman and her children to her car. Her abuser had crashed it into a stop sign. “He intentionally ran my car into the stop sign,” she said. “I know he did.” One officer entertained her kids with the police car’s lights while the other handled the papetwork. “One of the officers ... he was nice, he took care of me,” the woman said. “The other one, he was just noncha lant.” The report he filed dealt with the car wreck, but not the rest of the incident. The report listed her as the driver. “I found out he didn't put my boyfriend down as the driver of the car because he said he didn’t see him as the driver of the car,” she said. “How could you have put me as the driver of the car when 1 was in the middle of the street? “1 had told [the officer] that he pulled a knife on me and they didn't write an assault charge. All they wrote was a hit and run report. ... All he said was ‘Write it as a hit and run.' I remember him saying that.” She said the officers didn’t ask her if she needed medical attention even though her knees and elbows were bloody and she had trouble standing. The doctors she saw the next day said she could have died from the jump. Three days later, when she tried to get her car out of the police impound, she ran into more trouble. Officers at the impound asked if she had been the driver. When she said no, they said wouldn’t release the car unless the driver turned himself in. “1 was kind of disgusted and I was hurt so I started crying.” The next day, her abuser called, threat ening to kill the woman and her children. She told him she would call the police. He said he wasn’t scared of the police and to have them waiting when he came. That's when she called Victims Services, which directed her to a shelter. Victims Services also suggested that she file an injunction. She went to the state attorney’s office and filled out the paperwork. She said the woman from Victims Services was “very nice” and helpful. However, the woman assisting her with the process didn’t tell her she could get the injunction that day. “They didn’t ask me if I wanted to stay or not. After 1 finished signing all my paper work, she said, ‘That’s it.' She didn’t tell me that if 1 stayed there I could get the tempo rary injunction. All she said was to make sure to appear on my court date [for the permanent injunction] ... 1 would have stayed.” Now this woman is attempting to get her life back in kilter. “1 hope to go back to my apartment and find me a full-time job and go to school at night and finish my RN.” That earthquake she talked about did rip her world in two. Instead of just hanging onto the edge, she’s trying to pull the pieces back together.

It's been called a basketball action film, but it's also about two men, Tupac Shakur (from Poetic Justice) and Leon (from Cool Runnings), using the game to work through their internal conflicts. Rated R. ACE VENTURA: PET DETECTIVE. Jim Carrey (from Fox's In Living Color) stars as Ace Ventura, an uncon ventional pet detective who's snooping for the Miami Dolphins’ missing mascot, Snowflake.

Billy Crystal, Daniel Stern and Jack Palance return for the sequel and Jon Lovitz joins the cast as Crystal's Godfather-quoting brother. Palance plays the brother of the deceased trail-boss Curly.

Woody Harrelson and Kiefer Sutherland star as Sonny and Pepper, two modernday rodeo cowboys from New Mexico who venture to New York City to complete a nearly impossible task. When their friend Nacho (Joaquin Martinez) vanishes in New York, the duo decides to face the craziness of the Big Apple and find their buddy. The result is a wild action-comedy. Rated PG-13.

isn't. This is the Spike Lee movie he says you can take your kids to. But don’t be fooled, Disney it ain’t. Crooklyn focuses on a black family living in the ghet tos during the ‘70s, particularly the 10-year-old Troy. This film is a refreshing look at inner city life for both kids and adults. Rated PG-13. THE CROW. It was during the filming of this movie that Brandon Lee was accidentally killed. Lee stars as a returned-from-the-dead ticked-off fella who is after the man who killed his girlfriend and him. Lots of action and head-banging music in this one. Rated R THE ENDLESS SUMMER II. Surf’s up, dude —again. This time around, California surfers Robert ‘'Wingnut'' Weaver and Patrick O'Connell are surfing waves from Oahu’s North Shore to a man-made surfing park in Texas. Through a surfing journey that takes them to places like Australia, South Africa, Costa Rica, Bali, Fiji, Alaska and France, Weaver and O'Connel discov er the international allure of surfing — a bond that bridges cultural gaps between them and the friends they make along the way. Rated PG. THE FAVOR Two women plus three guys add up to a lot of fun in this outrageous romantic comedy. Starring Elizabeth McGovern. Brad Pitt and Ken Wahl. Rated R THE FLINTSTONES. Yabba, dabba, doo1 Fred Barney, Wilma and Betty are all featured in this fea ture film based on the hit cartoon series. Only this time around, it's got a few twists.

A movie that pleads as eloquently for tolerance and compassion as it inveighs against discrimination, Philadelphia is much stronger on character than plot, especially when it comes to the courtroom scenes. Hanks is terrific in an Oscar-winning role, but Denzel Washington is every bit as convincing and appealing. Pretty obvious in its message, Philadelphia is nonetheless heartfelt and effective. Most definitely, it is a movie for today. Rated PG-13.

SCHINDLER’S LIST. ***** Perhaps the most powerful film ever made as well as one of the very best. Shooting in striking black-and-white, director Stephen Spielberg turns to the Holocaust for his mas terpiece It’s the true story of Oskar Schindler (Liam Neeson), a Nazi war profiteer who eventually saved the lives of more than 1,100 Jews at the risk of his own. Epic in scope but intimate and personal in its characterizations, Schindler’s List is an unforgettable movie experience. The subject is most important, and Spielberg renders it masterfully. An Oscar-winner for the Best Film category among many others. Rated R. SERIAL MOM. THo movie is written and directed by John Waters, which just about says it all. The creator of Pink Flamingo and Hairspray this time weaves a typical nonsense tale about a murderous mommy (Kathleen Turner) whose respectable family, including Sam Waterson and Ricki Lake, thinks she's the next best thing to Donna Reed or Florence Henderson. Gleefully skewering traditional middle-class values, Waters has a grand time snickering and sniggering at his own jokes. Occasionally the movie is genuinely funny, like Kathleen Turner, but mostly it plays like a protracted segment of Beavis and Butt-head. SPEED. No, this isn't another drug movie. It is another in the long line of adrenaline pumping action flicks that always seem to generate so much interest during the summer months. This time around, Keanu Reeves plays Jack Traven, an LAPD cop who’s pulling SWAT team detail when he get trapped on a runaway bus that will explode if it slows beyond 50 mph.

Facial Cosmetic Surgery Today by R. Gregory Smith, IVLD. Facial Plastic Surgeon

PLUMPING OUT WRINKLES The appearance of so-called “expression lines" on the face is not reason enough to consider a face-lift. All that is usually needed to plump out these wrinkles and folds are injections of collagen. This natural protein is produced by all ani mals to cushion and support their skin. The facial plastic surgeon uses a highly purified version derived from cow hides to replace the collagen in and underneath the skin lost to sun exposure or the passage of time. By injecting collagen just beneath the skin's surface, the surgeon is able to fill in frown marks between brows, wrinkles around the mouth and eyes, and deep lines that angle from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth (postlabial folds). For further information concerning face lifting, cosmetic or functional nasal surgery, cosmetic eye lid surgery, dermabrasion, chemical face peels or hair transplantation, please call one of the num bers listed below.

or its first hour and a half, Wolf is a topnotch thriller, an adult horror film that is , intelligent, imaginative, and witty. Only towards the end, ironical ly as the filmmakers try to introduce the most unusual twists and turns, do the plot and the action grow pre dictable and illogical. Up till that point, however, Wolf is a howling success. Though the word is never used, the movie is indeed about a were wolf. Horror movie fans need not fear one of their genre’s favorite monsters being turned into a dull metaphor by the mainstream, high brow boys. No, this creature sprouts hair, grows fangs and howls at the moon. On the human side, it is true, he is also an independent and tal ented individual threatened by the blank oppression of the corporate business world. However, his roots are solidly in older myths, according to which a person can really become (not merely act like) an ani mal. Jack has that wild look in his eyes again.

His inept plumber’s helpers, Gordon Liddy and Howard Hunt, later transferred to the Committee for the Re-election of the President (CREEP) and went on to greater black-bag blunders at the Watergate complex. Three years later, Nixon was waving byebye from his helicopter. “Whether I’m going to be able to sit down and put to paper those events, it’s cH still" very h:,rd hard to ------ - well, -----write about," Krogh told me. “I’m still very ashamed about them.” After a brief prison stint and five ------ofotdisbarment, years disbarment,Krogh \rognwon wonreadmisreaumission in 1980 and now specializes in civil lawWhen ' .....to practice, Krogh■ was reinstated Justice Hugh Rosellini wrote that “unlike a

"Quite a place." "1 know how difficult it is to play Las war, made an official undercover agent and given an authentic government badge. And Vegas,” said Nixon.

I just try to reach them in my own way.” The president nodded his agreement to this. The conversation then took an odd turn. Elvis said: “The Beatles, I think, are kind of anti-American. They come over here. Make a lot of money. And then went back to England. And they said some anti-American stuff when they got back." I didn’t have a clue what Elvis was refer ring to ... From the look of surprise on the President’s face... he [didn’t either]. Later, when Presley mentioned he had been studying “Communist brainwashing for over ten years now.” even the sometimes enigmatic Nixon began to stare. The meeting ended later with a hug by Elvis and an awk ward pat on the shoulder by Nixon. History thus was made. “It was a wonderful moment,” Krogh said. “I don’t know how it translates today.” When Krogh sent me a copy of the book, he included his card. Perfect. I hurried down to the bar. Shorty wasn't there. “Give this to him when he comes in," I told the bar tender. On the back of Egil Krogh’s card, I wrote: “Shorty; What's this you’re spreading about me, Dick and Elvis? You could be big!" although not from Nixon, sued Tell me I don’t help people.

H t’s clean, bright and new. The freshI ness reflects the enthusiasm and I desire to please of the people who LI greet and serve you at this just opened Chinese restaurant on Southside Boulevard. For many months, 1 m sure most people like myself thought that the extension to the Mervyn’s building there on Southside just up from the Avenues Mall was to enlarge Mervyn’s. As it turns out, it was lease space to house various businesses and one is the new Peking Restaurant. On the night of my visit they were just two weeks old but seemed to be doing pretty well for an early-in-the-week night. The appetizer selection offered some traditional and some unusual. The four we selected got mixed reviews. The shrimp toast had a nice flavor but the shrimp were minced to the point of being just flavor and not any discernible texture. The crab Rangoon was better, with the wonton skins folded around a creamy crabmeat center and fried. The regular fried wonton were good but the hot and spicy Chinese cabbage was the best of the four. Pieces of hearts of bok choy had been pickled in vinegar peppers and Chinese spices. Served cold

bright color. Your first taste will confirm what your eyes said. The entrees here are very good. The mu shu pork is the best I’ve had in Jacksonville and probably the best in a number of years. The Chinese pancakes with this dish were very thin, as they should be, and the mixture of shred ded vegetables, pork and scrambled eggs were stir fried perfect lyThe Empress Trio was probably the least favorite at the table but still an excellent sweet and sour Hunan style dish. Shrimp, pork and chicken were thick battered and fried crispy. The stir fried vegetables on this dish included baby corn and broccoli in the Hunan sauce. This entree was marked “spicy” but I found that all of their “hot" dishes were actually very mild. Even the Chinese mustard served with the appetizers was toned way down lor American tastes. Next visit I’ll ask them to spice for me just like they would for a fam ily member. If you enjoy a little bit of table side show business with your dinner, then order the Double Delight. This combina tion of flank steak and scallops has been cooked with a hoisin sauce and vegeta bles in the kitchen and then is ceremoni ously placed on a super heated meta! plat ter at your table to create much sizzling and steam so everyone looks your way and wonders what you’re having. All good fun and a very tasty dish. For those who like Chinese styled duck dishes, be sure to try the Treasure L>tick Shanghai Style. The crispy fried . duck has been placed in a brown sauce and vegetables to produce an excellent combination. And for you lo mein lovers, the Peking does very good and reason ably priced lo mein dishes. My House Mix LYded chicken, pork, shrimp and vegflavor and’ thouSh a touch drY had s'ea

OYSTERS ON THE HALF-SHELL FETTUCCINE ALFREDO

I first your column on coni doms seemed long overduer-i, a $oncise rebuttal to the Christian right’s disinformation camPa*gn a^?Ut how H,V supposedly can readily pass through “pores” in \ 1 latex condoms. Too bad it took you only a few paragraphs to lapse into the kind of tired, false propaganda about abstinence” and “high-risk partners that would fit quite com fortably alongside the vitriolic big otry in the pages of the Washington Times. You point out that the 5-micron “intrinsic pores” scare is based on the latex in rubber gloves, not con doms, and you point out the vast dif ferences in manufacture of the two. Good. You cite studies about cor rect, consistent use of condoms, a distinction in the anticondom, anti sex troops never make while making the rounds of talk shows. Fine. But why skip the biggest hole in the “porous latex theory”? HIV isn’t some free-ranging microscopic bug; it’s an intracellular virus, and it’s these cells that would somehow have to squeeze through those fabled 5-micron holes. And then, for you, it’s back to the same old idea that “only bad people get AIDS”; and for the self-satisfied schmucks behind Cecil Adams, bad people are evidently those who have sex outside the confines of a hetero sexual monogamous marriage con£ : tract. “If you’re a gay male and in a • high-risk group to start with, at least stay away from IV drug users ?! It must be quite reassuring to think of ail queer men inherently diseased and of all drug users as inherently self-destructive. Too bad that s a crock. The queer men who have made safe sex a consistent part of their sexual lives and the IV drug users who make a point of cleaning and not sharing their works are exercising a hell of a lot more self restraint and self-protection a the idiots who think they’re immune because they’re not in a high-risK

group. I guess it’s called the Straight Dope for a reason: it’s heterosexist — and stupid. — P.B. Great letter, P. In more than 20 years of writing this column it’s the first defense I’ve gotten of IV drug use, which to be honest I did think of as “inherently self-destructive.” But 1 did not say “queer men" were “inher ently diseased” and you are vulgar to sug gest that 1 did. I said they were in a highrisk group, which no one seriously dis putes, and that while condoms significantly reduce the risk of infection, no one should think they will render you immune to AIDS. Discretion in your choice of sexual part ners is a sound strategy regardless of your sexual orientation. That said, by all means use condoms as well. As for the substantive issue you raise, it’s true “the transmission of HIV by genital fluids most probably occurs through virusinfected cells since they can be present in larger numbers than free virus in the body fluids” (Jay Levy, “Pathogenesis of Human immunodeficiency Virus Infection,” Microbiological Reviews, March 1993). But it would be wrong to construe this to mean that HIV is transmitted only by cells. When I spoke to Dr. Levy he readily conceded that HIV may be transmitted by free virus as well. He did add that the viscosity of semen may hinder the passage of virus through the latex barrier. We could debate the technical stuff all day. My point is this: for whatever reason — pores, improper use, etc. — real-world research shows condoms don’t offer 100 percent protection against AIDS. Maybe not, say the AIDS experts, but if you tell people that, they'll use it as an excuse not to use condoms. To which 1 reply: the arguably greater danger is that they’ll use condoms the way some weight watchers use Diet Coke - as an excuse to continue dangerous behavior (e.g., promiscuous sex, not gay sex per se). A friend of mine who died of AIDS attributed his illness to a wild weekend he'd once had. It is hardly antisex to wish he’d stayed home.

Is there something you need to get straight? Cecil Adams can deliver the Straight Dope on any topic. Write Cecil Adams, 9456 Phillips Hwy., Ste. Il, Jacksonville, FL 32256.

• In May, Jams Von Arx, 41, who had been on probation for child molestation i Wausau, Wis., was jailed after he refused court-ordered sex therapy designed to induce interest in adult erotic images. He argued that such therapy is unconstitutional because it requires him to masturbate, which is against his religion. Family Values • In Toronto in March, Sajid Rhatti, 23, and his 20-year-old wife brawled over whether Katey Sagal, who plays Peg Bundy on the Married with Children tv show, is prettier than Christina Applegate, who plays her daughter. First, the wife slashed Rhatti in the groin with a wine bottle as they scuf fled, but she dressed his wounds and the couple sat down again to watch another episode of the show. Moments later, the brawl erupted again, and Rhatti, who suf fered a broken arm and shoulder, stabbed his wife in the chest, back and legs before they implored neighbors to call an ambu lance. » In March, elementary-school teacher Myra Obasi, 29, of Shreveport, La., was brought, bleeding from the eyes, to Parkland Memorial Hospital in Dallas by her two sisters, who eventually were charged with having gouged out Obasi’s eyes with their fingers because they thought she was possessed by the spirit of her father. Detectives were unable to ques tion Obasi for several hours because she refused to stop chanting, “Thank you, Jesus.’’ • At least eight times during the past nine months in the United States, people have been charged by police with imprisoning other family members at home, either as punishment or to subdue them. Among them were a Boulder, Colo., woman who locked her mother and aunt in the base ment to free up some time for herself on Mother's Day, and a couple in Rudd Iowa who tied the wife’s mother, 73, inside a cage in their yard in November (wind chill: minus-8 degrees) while they went to a movie. Also, 12 children in five incidents were found locked up alone over the Christmas holidays in England • William and Hermita Doyle'were placed on probation in Waynesville, Mo in December after pleading guilty to allowing their three een-age daughters to dance Robert m'o an Army base in S‘-

• In August, Yvonne Kottle, 24, tested oosi tive for drugs shortly before a judicial hea ‘ mg in Philadelphia and fled the court' house. An hour later, her judge Arthur' Kafnssen, spotted her in a nearby park “ nd

kicked Kafrissen mthe Sand^ h‘er ‘hen shouting, “Don’t hurt my moS’^Yd ^>;,naSense.y-hS respect were sentenceTto six yeare^h Wife in April for having their dauohT* ln Prison and 14, take photograph *3

having sex. The husband, who ViX

Navy, said he wanted to take the photos with him during sea duty.

Multiculturalism • In Cairo, Egypt.in January, seven Muslim fundamentalist lawyers filed a lawsuit to force the happily married Professor Nasr Abu Zeid and his wife to divorce because Zeid had written alleged heresies that dis qualified him from marriage to a Muslim woman. According to the lawyers, any Muslim has the power to petition to end such a marriage. However, a civil affairs judge ruled shortly afterward for Zeid. • In November, the family of Sarasota stu dent Wayne Camp-Bell convinced school officials to hand over to them a videotape they had made of him misbehaving in class and which they had intended to use to justi fy Camp-Bell’s punishment. According to the family, which is American Indian, being photographed takes the person’s soul away, and a ritual is necessary to restore it. » According to recently released figures from the Department of Justice of India, 4,785 women were killed by their husbands in 1992 for insufficient dowries, an increase ) of about 350 percent since 1986. The fig- \ ures may be low since at least some such murders are competently disguised as acci dents. • In December, the Juma Indians of the western Amazon Rainforest sent word to neighboring tribes that they needed a virile man to mate with one of the three remain ing fertile women in order to perpetuate the tribe. There were 300 Jumas in 1940, but massacres by loggers reduced the popula tion, and the last young male was recently killed by a panther. ° In January of this, the Year of the Dog, the city of Beijing prohibited its citizens from owning dogs, even though many peo ple still tty to hide dogs in their homes. Recently, a park opened north of the city to rent dogs for patrons to walk at a price of about 23 cents for 10 minutes. In April, Feng Quantang filed a lawsuit in Shenyang, China, asking for damages from the govern ment because inspectors allegedly beat his illegal dog to death in front of him. In January in Riga, Latvia, five “con trollers ’ from the local bus company beat a 33-year-old man named Smits to death because he could not produce a ticket dur ing his bus ride and thus was presumed to be riding illegally. According to local P°>ice, controllers routinely give beatings to

Least Competent Person • As reported in the University of Arizona student newspaper’s Police Beat column of May 4, a 19-year-old student filed a charge against a fellow student for theft of his fake *r.‘??na driver’s license. The complainant aid he loaned the man the card, but after it was confiscated at a local club, the borrowih r«!iASL d t0 reimburse the complain311* the $40 he paid for it.

Those wishing to avoid reaching advertisers without a message should use the browse function. The call is only $1.95 per minute. Follow the computer’s instruc tions. You have 60 seconds to leave your name, phone number and a brief message. RECORDING A GREETING: Everyone who purchases a print ad in FOLIO WEEKLY will be mailed a postcard with two (2) five digit numbers. One number will be the Voice Mail Box code to be printed in the magazine, and the other will be his/her personal password into the ELIGIBLES system. To record an outgoing message that will inspire a caller to respond, the advertiser may call a special FREE# which will be sent along with the personal access code. RETRIEVING A MESSAGE: To retrieve messages left for them, the advertiser will call the 1-9DO-77-FOLIO number and, you guessed it, follow the instructions. You will have the option of repeating the message you just heard, deleting the message, or going on to the next message without deleting any. The computer is “user friendly.” Just go slowly the first few times and it works great! The cost is $1.95 per minute.

You must have a touch tone phone to use this system. Mobile phones don’t access the system very well. We suggest the messages be checked twice weekly, perhaps Friday and Tuesday.

Street S dieted that the rich will ge richer and the poor get ■ pitchier And Coyote Mooncompost, a local x Tarot card reader, foresaw that Iraqi terrorists would conspire with UFOs to hold everyone at the Super Bowl hostage next January. Personally, I detest the notion that it's only the nasty predictions that are interesting. In that spirit, I make the following forecasts: The number of homeless Aries will decrease dramati cally in the next month, as will the number of dreamhomeless Aries. TAURUS (APR. 20-MAY. 20): My mom bequeathed to me a set of impeccable social instincts, the fundamental rule of which is: Never go on any adventure where you're the most interesting per son. Blessed by my innate drive to remain entertained at all costs, I’ve developed a fondness for going to par ties where I’m the least interesting per son. It's humbling, nerve-wracking, but highly educational. I recommend this practice to everyone, and especially to you now. It's downright hazardous for you to be a know-it-all these days. Yawn not, Taurus! The moment you do, you'll know you're in the wrong place at the wrong time.

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20): In the Star Trek universe, the Ferengi are a humanoid species that has a special tal ent for making a profit. Now, as I try to motivate you to meditate harder on the bottom line, I thought you could benefit from learning a few of the Ferengi Rules of Acquisition. Rule of Acquisition #13: Anything worth doing is worth doing for money. #20: When the customer is seating turn up the heat. #59: Free advice is seldom cheap. #60: Never use credit where your words will do. #76: Every once a while, declare peace. It confuses the hell out of your enemies. #33: It never hurts to suck up to the boss. CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22): i must confess that i have a fuzzy self-image, i often don t seem to know exactly who or what i am. Sometimes i think i'm so »• hat n° one can compete. Some times i think i'm so lousy i might as well give up. Often i even neglect to capitalize the word “i." You may have suite red from a similar fate, fellow 5'^‘?(?l®nan',but ,ucki|y you’re in a perfect rS?!9lca -p*?ase t0 f‘x that. muL iin9.' 2° know for certain about Aral Cancerians in gennannio il?, weJ®. exPort at geltinq esoeciX hand8’ Thls skil1 wil1 come FraSonVtrom d.y ?ow as we make the transition from i to I. H LEO (JULY 21 -Aim tr mance artist Linda Montano once^a/p

Whatever you call It, It'll be out to |unrh this week. Which is good news forvou! you want to try things It doesn't think you can or should do. LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT.22): I hate tn admit it, but love is not always enouoh Sometimes you need love and clever insights. On rare occasions you need love, clever insights, naive couraoe and a little bit of trickery. This is one of those rare occasions. Take a moment riaht now to shush the weepy dialogue you keep having with yourself about what’s fair and what you deserve. Save all that mental energy for the work of fightinn like hell for your fair share. Oh and while you’re fighting like hell, don't for get to be as tricky as Ghandi, as lovino as Einstein, and as thoughtful as the Marx Brothers.

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV.21V Scientists in Paris have determined that the world’s clocks are slightly off. By international decree, an extra second will be added to all our lives at 8:00 p m EDT on June 30. It seems like a little thing at first glance, an amusing sound bite to chew on over your morning caf feine. But to those who have the eyes to see, I offer it as a wild card, a declara tion of amnesty, a burst of total free dom. Any trance you want broken, break it during this hiccup in time. Any window of opportunity you've been wait ing to open, fling it wide. SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21): Your upcoming subterranean journeys may entail strenuous slithers through dank, dark, tight spots. Suggested preparations: Study up on spelunking, archeology, plumbing and digging for buried treasure. Eat lots of carrots to enhance your night vision. Practice your snake imitations and overcome your fear of creepy crawly things. Read Thomas Moore's Care of the Soul or Carl Jung on the “shadow." (An intro ductory text like Man and His Symbols would suffice). And get yourself in the mood to fantasize obsessively about lost keys and missing links.

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19): You should closely monitor the behavior of the number seven. I have reason to believe it's involved in your current inconveniences. I theorize that seven has been trying to call attention to itsell in an irritating manner so that you will be forced to tune in to helpful influences you’ve been overlooking. I would even go so far to say that seven is both the cause of and the cure for your itch. Be especially alert for sevens that are hanging around the color green or the letter “F." Perk up your intuition anytime seven appears in the presence of hors es, boxcars, salt or ointment. AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18): As the local country music station says, you can P put ut y° your ur boots in the oven> oven, but that dont make them biscuits. As the t-shirt I saw at the cafe yesterday says, put perfume on a mangy dog from hell and you’ve got a sweet-smelling mangy dog ,rom hell. As Bob Dylan (or was it Eddie Redder?) once sang, to live outside the law y°u must be honest. How does this all apply to you? Let me sum iiit up UP by quoting the uy quuuny niu little tituo voice -to whispered night: -Tell whispered in in my my ear ear last last night: “Ten Aquarius to beware of rubber checks, ,B- PSr “..a 9erS ars,’ plastic P|as.li0 people, Pe0Ple; dirty laun' dry and mud pies in the sky."

PISCES (FEB.19- MAR. 20): Dream alert! Keep a pen and notebook by your mend her to you as alrLlks '° re“mbed. Why? Consider this: In 1858, after nuurs is rathor 12 hours is 'hink----- strenuous but unsuccessful efforts W hours would be suffSa»n}‘ A mere determine the structure of the benzene J; Pt 'or you to ring, the chemist Friedrich August whole set of more in n/ ?8 way lor Kekule finally discovered it in a Hash ~ ~1 more orioinat S „B’es,ln9 P(°b- when he dreamt of a snake biting its ongmal sins. own tail.

RAGE I

!rf©mato©[n) QJMerdgiss The growing importance of universal access to cable television. By Travis Charbeneau owever troubling the notion, video literacy skills and access to television programming may be more important right now to the health of the republic than conventional literacy skills and access to books and periodicals. Good schools, museums and libraries are already the budget-crunched province of cultural elitists. Daily newspa pers are vanishing. Television is where the majority of Americans get their information — or don’t get it, depending on the bite of their cable bill. This is a distinction that counts as we merge into the new information superhighway. America’s underclass is eroding still further as the information era picks up steam because the poor are not only an economic underclass, but an information under class. They not only can’t or won't read, they can’t afford cable tv, much less the “interactive, fiber optic, infinite bandwidth" telecommunications services of the near future. Even ostensibly middle class families can experience an information crunch when forced to dispense with frills. As opposed to say, housing, food or med ical costs, cable tv more and more risks falling into the frill category as it becomes more and more expensive. Despite re-regulation efforts, the real American national sport, channel surf ing, will continue to grow more pricey. Prior to the Cable TV Act of 1992, rates had already increased 56 percent since 1986, to the point where, basic cable eveiywhere was topping $20 per month - no HBO, TMC, DIS, ETC. While the (so far unrealized) 10 percent cut promised by the Act’s supporters would still be wel come news in the short term, the long term problem of information access can only widen along with information band width. The bandwidth or carrying capacity challenge is touted as all but solved thanks to new technologies like data compression and fiber optics. We hear (ad nauseam) of the information super highway carrying 500 channels and promising a host of two-way information services, interactive media and other wonderful innovation’s. But, somebody’s gotta pay for this. Such fine additions to the cable tv smorgasbord as the All Exotic Fish Aquarium Channel involve costs which must be passed on. And if you don’t like the monthly $30 ($50?, $200’), current policy says, “lump it”. Get out the rabbit ears. And, however middle class you may fancy yourself, welcome to the information under class Your decline and fall could come about with remarkable

ready. Your budget isn’t. Second, you find you really don’t have any more leisure time than before to pursue fine literature. You may have less. Instead of coming home to a living room full of kids happily stupefied by MTV, you come home to a living room full of kids screaming, “I want my MTV!” Third, civil war breaks out in the new Republic of Turkghizistanistanstan which has 32 nuclear submarines; your company has just announced a spasm of “down-sizing”; Dan Quayle was just on the car radio — something about, “I'm in charge here!” You dash home for the remote and punch up — The Young and the Clueless. Kenny discovers Babs in bed with a stuffed giraffe who is in fact her evil twin brother. You rudely dis cover how much broadcast networks have been ripping down their news departments since mergers of the ’80s and loss of market share to cable. Perhaps you'll overcome the ill effects of cable withdrawal. Maybe the kids (and you) will discover the delights of Tolstoy. Maybe you'll pick up a subscription to the single remaining daily paper in town. The fact remains that you’re still unwired in our ever-more wired world. And, while Tolstoy may help you in the sheer joy department, you’ll still be behind the curve as to what Generalissimo Quayle is doing about those rebel Turkghizistanistanstanian submarine captains. This might be the ideal world for • Thoreau, but in an era of accelerated change, citizenship is crippled when citi zens are denied ready access to at least a basic information package. The nation generally is put at global disadvantage if it tolerates an information underclass. We Tolstoy fans have poo-pooed televi sion forever, but the near future belongs to Ted Turner whether we like it or not. Further, truly judicious viewing of cable tv for just a year can easily provide the educational equivalent of a bachelor’s degree. It's repeatedly done so for me. (Of course, I was an English Lit major.) The ill-informed, miss-informed and video illiterati are America’s ball and chain as we run the great international hurdle race. Cable tv and its spin-offs, despite very real shortcomings, are the fastest remedial education technologies we’ve got. Or don’t got, depending in whether or not we can afford to pay for them. Can we afford not to? Just as the establishment of a permanent economic underclass has renewed demands for economic rights, the looming threat of a permanent information underclass increasingly demands information rights. Re-regulation efforts can be considered as implying such rights. Same with the techni cal carrying capacity of a fiber optic-based information infrastruc ture. Even the current mania for media mergers could conceiv ably be productive. But none of these developments will count for much without a basic information package, like basic cable tv, being regarded as an entitlement every bit as critical as a basic health care package. What'll it be? Limited but free access? Information vouchers? Brain Food Stamps? You can monitor the debate in the House Subcommittee on Telecommunications and Finance on C-SPAN. If you still have cable.

Your house, tv and YCtRl are still cable ready, Your budget osn’t, However maddDe dass you may ffaocy yourse^ welcome to the information underclass. Haybe you’ve stffl got the house and the car the college degree. What you don’t have is a due.

eaSAfter a particularly stirring end-of-the-month Come To Jesus Meeting with your checkbook, you might first try dropping HBO. Heck you can always rent that one movie a month HBO offers that’s’worth watching. And now you won’t have to suffer through R7/ and Ted’s Excellent Adventure III merely to justify paying the t a $12 Then you have to visit the dentist. That’s about all it .e blc Mavbe you’ve still got the house and the car and the col!opdegree and the new filling. What you don’t have is a clue. First vou may suffer the effete agonies of the information ■ l » ooinc cold turkey from 50 channels to maybe five. No )unk mtv A&E HTS, TDC or ESPN. No more surfing. No more "Jys^al clear reception. Your house, tv and VCR are still cable Folio
