OUSA referendum postponed at -UT by Ken Imprint

stuff

After recently calling a referendum on membership in the Ontario Undergraduate Student Alliance (OUSA), the University of Toronto Student’s Administrative Council (SAC) has decided not only to postpone the referendum, but also to temporarily suspend their OUSA membership. While the pending referendum had been much anticipated by various anti-OUSAfactions at Uoff, SAC now feels that policy differences between SAC and OUSA must be

worked out before the referendum is held. Problems arose between SAC and OUSA in August when SAC complained about their under-represent&ion on the OUSA general assembly, which is run on a representation by population model. While SAC was paying fees commensurate with their population, they felt under-represented on the assembly because of that body’s maximum delegate ceiling. ff UofT’s membership was tieighted to the same scale as the other member schools, they would have more delegates on the general assembly than allowed for by the ceiling. SAC President Ed de Gale

says this is not acceptable to UofT. “OUSA has proved itself to be a rem&ably dynamic and progressive student lobby group,” de Gale said. “But we’re (SAC) not willing to marginalize our representation within any group.” SAC would rather not have made the decision to postpone the referendum, but felt pressured by time constraints to deal with the representation problem first, said de Gale. OUSA’s opposition at UofT, however, doesn’t believe the representation issue to be the real reason for the referendum postponement. According to the Ontario Pub-

lose it,” said OPIRG-T coordinator Andrea Calver. The “no” campaign was well organized, with committees on all three campuses, says Calver, who believes the representation issue to be a front allowing SAC to cancel the referendum. “lrregardless of procedural questions, we should still go to referendum and solve the OUSA problem once and for all,” she said. Ed de Gale doesn’t see the antiOUSA factions at Uoff as a threat, however, calling them a.“vocal minority.” “The dissenters on this campus are primarily made up of OFSers who no longer have and OFS to adhere to,” he said, referring to the former Ontario Federation of Students, whose tuition policy had been demanding zero tuition.

the allega-

tions of circumventing the referendum and called his opposition “a highly ideologically entrenched group of mourners for OFS.” Regardless of their differences, both SAC and OPIRG-T believe UofT will rejoinOUSAwithin weeks, after the representation issue has been dealt with. For now, SAC plans to deal with OUSA as a separate entity and the referendum wili not be held. OUSA will settle with UofT soon, says Calver, and “Uoff wil! be back in OUSA having circumvented a referendum process.” While the planned referendum will not occur, de Gale says there will be a referendum on OUSA at UofT in the future. The next possible date for the referendum would be in March of I 994.

“You talked about how important training is, but with the raising of university tuition fees by 40 per cent and the cut of government grants, how do you expect us to get to university and get the better training we need?,” asked high school student Carrie Carscadden, as quoted in The &be and Mail, September 22. While the increase in tuition was not a decision made by the federal government, the Ontario government claims that it has been forced to raise fees due to a reduc-

But Campbell insists that loans are not a long-term solution EO the problem of increasing post secondary costs: reducing the deficit is, as she has insisted throughout her term as Prime Minister and during her present campaign.

However a few areas of controversy have occurred around Campus Fest.

Nobody was laughing and there were a few groans,” said Fit.

’ Postcard campaign launched against book Students across Canada are taking action to stop taxation on books. The Students Association of Mount Royal College (SAMRC) in Calgary is initiating a campaign to flood the Prime Minister with postcards demanding to stop GST on books. According to the University of Calgary’s student newspaper, TheGauntlet, SAMRC’s target is to have 2000 postcards sent to PM Kim Campbell asking that the GST, the first federal tax to apply to reading material, be removed from books. IO 000 cards have been printed and are on their way to all post-secondary institutions across Caigary. UW VPUA Sharon Flood says she “hopes the campaign works and the MP’s get the point that taxation on books is not appropriate.*’ Flood thinks the campaign is a good idea and that a campaign of a similar nature at UW is something to consider.

should be stopped. Another group, the Don’t Tax Reading Coalition, is also launching a major campaign asking students to raise the book taxation issue with their local candidates. “Students have been hit hard by the new reading tax,” said Coalition Chairperson Jacqueline Hushion. “Students spend a large percentage of their limited incomes on reading materials. Students aren’t free to opt out of book purchases -- as many Canadians unfortunately have done -- without harming their education.” According to the Don’t Tax Reading Coaliton, “in the first year of GST book sales dropped I5%, before stabilizing at levels 10-l 2% lower than before the GST.” According to Arlene Klapman, Codirector of the UW Bookstore,“text book sales are not growing generally and sales are quite flat, due partly to tfie GST and economic times”. The bookstore, unlike most university bookstores tries to compensate for the added GST expense by offering a discount on texts.

New co-op -- continuous placement by Sandy Atwal Imprint stqff The University of Waterloo, known primarily for its cooperative education system and its computer facilities, is about to unite the two by streamlining its co-op placement method with a new on-line system. Currently, students may expect to wait up to four months, in a worst case scenario, for a job placement. However, the cooperative education

University

and career services department decided last winter to replace the old “batch system” with the current, more efficient “continuous placement” method. Rather than grouping students together for interviews, rankings and placements, which normally takes four to five weeks, the new computerized system is designed to be more responsive, more efficient and more flexible by posting job offers, and placements in a continuous flow prior to the students work term.

This target, set both last year and this year at 3700 students, isthe number

enrollment figures are up across the province as more OAC students apply to Ontario’s universities. Unfortunately, the supply may not be able to meet the demand. Presently, Uw’s first-year enrolment is 3,778 students, an increase of 246 since last year. UW’s undergraduate population presently stands at 13,800 full-time students in total. Some Ontario universities faced even larger increases. McMaster University received 410 more first year students than their I992 enrollment of 3,455. Insufficient residence spaced forced some students to stay in a high class hotel in downtown Hamilton. The increase comes as more high school students recognize university as a requirement for today’s workplace. Resurrection Catho’lic Secondary School guidance counsellor Tim lowenberger has noticed a definite increase in the number of students who are completing their OACs with the aim of applying to university. “Students are beginning to realize that the new economy demands those skills,” commented Lowenberger. High school students admit that employment is the motivating factor behind applying for university. “I have more chances of getting a good job if I go to university,” said Resurrection QAC student Sue G hasemi. “It’s necessary for the job I want,” added Rick Temporao, another Resurrection student. The reality however, is that some students may not have the opportunity to enrol in the post secondary institution of their choice. According to UW registrar Ken tevigne, 3778 first year students enUniversity

Having reached its enrolment target, UW plans to remain fixed at that level, regardless of possible heightened demand.

This could potentially shorten the recruiting time to one week If an organization has a job to offer students, the information will be posted on-line on Monday or Wednesday. It can then be reached by students on the computer information network. After interviews have been conducted, the students are ranked by the prospective employer. The UW co-op office then makes the offer to the student who has 24 hours to respond. Although most of the placement process will be computerized, the student

his or her resume via system. However, the continuous placement system allows students to tailor their resumes, accentuating different aspects of them rather than attempting to attract varied employers with the same resume. ^ According to jim Wilson, director of cooperative education and career services, the streamlined computerized system is a natural response to both larger industries who are downsizing and to the increase in the involvement of smaller business that are getting involved in the cooperative system and can’t wait four months to the new computerized

see if a student is available. The new system should help avoid the type of placement problems that the university has experienced in the past few years such as having up to 250 students who were not placed, yet not having all the positions advertised by employers filled. Although the program is already in progress, the new online system is scheduled to be fully operational in january. New computer outlets will be placed in various location all over the campus, including the Davis Centre and Dana Porter libraries.

“In this economy, it is not to our advantage to increase enrolment,” stated Ken Lavigne. As a result, entrance requirements for Ontario universities are rising, and the optimism of Ontario high school students is on the decline. “Students are starting to realize that school is a serious business, but many are discovering it too late,” said Lowenberger.

Women frustrated by PoliSci faculty at U. Vie by Maya

Hamis

Imprint stagf The split of the sexes continues to grow in the political science department at the University of Victoria. Problems started back in March, 1992, when the political science department formed a committee to discuss both the barriers denying women full participation in the department, and the changes needed to improve the situation. They are commonly known as the Chilly Climate Committee. Their preliminary report called for changes to curriculum, class environment, funding of women scholars, hiring practices and for an end to subtle harassment and everyday hostility experienced by women in the department This sparked an angry response from several male faculty members of the department. “Women who organize against discrimintion are often targets for further discrimination,“warned the Chilly

Climate Committee report. In retaliation of the report, eight tenured male faculty members, including the chair of the department, Jeremy Wilson, submitted a rebuttal to the Climate Committees’s report The men claimed that there had already been efforts made by the department to move towards gender equality and denounced the committee’sallegations of harassment and hostility. “It is our belief that there have been no incidents whatsoever of the behaviours described,” stated the political science faculty, as quoted by the McGill Tribune. “If this matter is not resolved, either by way of the presentation of credible evidence or by means of your apology and retraction, then it will be necessary for us to take further steps to protect our reputations.” In the first attempt to resolve the conflict, the university’s vice-president of academics commissioned a university investigation committee to explore the issue. This commission asked for

bg Awey Peters Fed BComm Chair

the faculty members to re-send the letter to the professor involved and recommended the continuation of the work performed by the Chilly Climate Committee. The suggestions were rejected by the male faculty before the Climate Committee members had an opportunity to comment on them. In a final effort to resolve the issue, U. Vie. appointed an external committee consisting of a former British Columbia Justice, a University of Saskatchewan law professor, and the chair of the Saskatchewan Labour Relations Board to investigate the situation. The committee has until November to create its report. This decision has satisfied the tenured male staff, but the Climate Committee have boycotted the procedures, in protest of the fact that they were not consulted on the formation of the external committee’s terms of agreement

Teaching the Educated to Read! 9 The main cause of student drop-out is stress stress over not having assignments finished, stress over not staying “caught-up” with the class, and stress over the realization that just staying “caughtup” isn’t going to be good enough. 1993 was the worst year in history for students getting jobs right out of college, and this next year looks even worse. It isn’t always the smartest students who get the best grades, but it is always the best readers - the ones who can get the most out of their books on their own. Simply getting through your reading assignments will only give you the minimum that your professor requires to pass you. Just passing your courses isn’t going to be good enough any more, In fact, having a diploma or a degree only aIlows you the opportunities of furthering your education with a more competitive group of fellow graduates. The ’90s will continue to be a decade filled with the most rapid change ever seen in history. Only those who are able to adapt to those changes will be able to remain competitive.

Back in the summer, here in the Imprint office, we were wondering just what we’d have to print in order to trigger that inevitable deluge of letters to the editor. But beyond our little Arts rating guide giving the top five stories we’d have to run to trigger that same deluge, which we were goingto run until Daryi Novakcame through with a nasty letter attacking then News Editor jeff Warner for his opinion piece on breasts, not much has realty happened. We have not been swamped by letters from irate, “ideologically entrenched” students. In fact, we have barely gotten our toes wet. So let’s, now, recap what might have been: Top five stories we’d have to run to get a letter to the editor: I. Scurrilous opinion piece attacking campus cops for being incompetent at stopping bike thefts outside the campus centre. 2. Article exposing prostitution ringoperating on campus. 3. Reviews of bands you’ve never heard of before. 4. Questionable opinion piece on the inherent sexuality of breasts. 5. Borderline ridiculous column on dehumanization of frosh week activities, engineers in particular. And thanks to the three, or thereabouts, thinking people on campus, we actually received one letter over each of numbers 4 and 5. So, I wilt now excuse those three people from what I am about to write. You are ali a bunch of fuckingapathetic losers. Do you not have any opinions? Do I have to stoop to preaching and lecturing you into expressing yourself? You must all have been conditioned really well by your frosh week leaders to not think for your$eives. How do you get through classes? I can just see ail the profs out there going crazy because everytime they ask a question the entire lecture hail looks the other way. is there nobody out there?

Welt, now that we’ve weeded out the weak from the strong with that little pause, what do you think? Does university life realty promote free thought and discussion of ideas retevant to the very existence of our civilization? Or do you ail just want your job after you graduate? What’s it ail about then, eh? Will someone write in and at least tell me to get off my high horse and inform me that my column, too, is a toad of cerebral jelio?

See you

t’s only a little more than a month from now that all eligible Canadian voters will be catted upon to fulfill their function in Canada’s representative democracy. The jury is still out on the question of whether or not Canada actpatiy is a democracy, and, if this is the case, whom it represents. Typically, given the blundering stupidity of the present federal governing party, one would expect a large protest vote to be scattered among the Bloc, Greens, Libertarians, Rhinos, and the three other parties that became fixtures in the House of Clowns long before my birth certificate was issued. Typically, this would be the case. However, ! suspect that ail the media and most of the common rabble vented a good part of their “protest vote” anger (ast October 26 when the egos of Brian Mulroney and Quebec politicians forced us to the ballot boxes to decide how much more independentthat province should become. Nonetheless, Joe Muck is still stuck in an unsatisfying or dead-end job, worried about keeping it, is a stave to plastic debt and not quite ready to “roll the dice” to find out if electing a third party might improve his tot. A repetition of the Ontario experiment on a federal scale would certainty be a boon for manufacturers of bicycle helmets, but general governing competence is quite a different question. But now that I mention it, the Liberals and Tories haven’t exactly perfected the art of governing, have they ? Maybe Bob’s just screwing Ontarians from an unfamiliar angle, with the result beingthat it doesn’t quite feel right yet. But don’t worry, we’ll get used to it - we always do. Sure, we whine an awful lot about the state of the state, but somehow always manage a smile as they’re screwing us over, I used to argue that no one needs a degree in political science to realize that the government is an institution structured and dedicated maintaining and increasing its power. rather than some simple collection of ideologies that may do right or may do wrong.

iti February iation) proved me wrong back in 1990, about this time of the year too, if memory serves. Ontarians are one voting block that wilt excercise more caution this time around instead of saying “well, why don’t we give this well-meaning guy a chance? After all, things can’t get any worse.” I thought Canadians were too smart to believe that crap, but apparantly not. In hindsight, I suppose I should have looked at other societal indications, such as the fact that reiigiousity is stilt prevelant in Canada. As tong as people fantasize about the existence of omniscient and omnipotent entities without logically addressing the question of free will, the lot of us wilt keep wipingshit off our faces. Actually, religiousity might work in favour of some type of movement to overthrow the government. Didn’t the faithful embark on a couple god-sanctioned massacres in biblical times? There were stonings, saltings, drownings . , . all godsanctioned methods for the faithful to rid themselves of heretics, that we can stilt use today, for politicians. Now all I have to do is find a way to convince people that god is telling his army to rid the country of politicians because. . . -- I know! - because they have to prepare for the second coming. Brilliant! This piece is only two-thirds done, and I’ve already got a huge number of people to carry out my cause in the name of god, as soon as I figure out how to talk to them ail when they’re praying for guidance. Whoa! How did I get around to ragging on religion in the middle of a piece about the federal election? Must be the drugs . . . alcohol, nicotine . . mdo I pay my taxes or what? Anyhow, down to business. No need to continue visions of an equitable society, when October 26 wilt render us a Liberal minority government. Then the fun begins. Why, Dave? How do you figure on that? Well, if you’re really interested.. * (applause) it’s like this. Approximately fifty per cent of voters reside in Ontario and Quebec, meaning that they’re important voters. About three peopie in Ontario will vote NDP, with the vast majority going to the Grits, Tories, and Presto! l

okay,

Manning, in that order. The province of Quebec just granted full voting rights to women a little more than forty years ago, so real Quebec males won’t probably go for the idea of a female Prime Minister. That kind of voting isn’t politically correct, but neither is the real world. Further, Quebec only grasped the idea of separating (Roman Catholic) church and state thirty-some years ago, leading me to believe many Quebeckers might be suspicious of a divorcee’s integrity. .So the Quebecvote will bespiit bythe Bloc Quebecois and Liberals, with the PC’s bumbling along in third. The Grits and Reformers will be competing for the Prairie and Atlantic vote, and residents of “Hongcouver,” as it is now nicknamed, won’t really care who is elected since they’re ail overjoyed by the fact that their province seems to be hiring more people than it’s laying off. Where do the NDP fit in? Well, they’ll scrape up votes in a few ridings here and there, but won’t entirely disappear. The fun I was speaking of a couple hundred words ago was the circus sideshow Canadian politics wiii become with a minority government. The actual government has a tenuous existence, an “instantly nonexistent” quality that manifests itself when the movers and shakers screw up, as Joe Clark so quickly demonstrated. The government, minority or not, wants to hold onto power. So do the other two parties, the support of which at least one is required for the government to be effective against the opposition. Sure, the two smaller parties can defeat the government on a budget or money bill, thereby forcing the government out to the polls, but this means they also have to extract their fingers from the power pie. And no one likes to wittingly relinquish power. i hate to admit it, but in a minority government situation, someone with Mukoney’s wheeling and dealing ability is needed, or we’ll be back in the voting booth by February. Hmmmm. Well, at least we can look forward to a day off work in February. Dave

Get a grip; a hat!

it’s

To the Editor, It is a shame when the lack of a suitable editorial subject reduces our otherwise laudable Imprint editor to sweeping generalisations and misinformed allegations regarding a faculty which does not quite fit his model of the ultimate student experience. We are referring, of course, to Ken Bryson’s senseless dissection of Engineering and of Frosh Week, in particular, which appeared in September i 7th issue of the Imprint. To suggest that outfitting frosh with yellow helmets robs them of their individuality is ridiculous by its very inference that the frosh themselves are mindless shills, incapable of an original thought. Furthermore, the short-sighredness ofthese comments completely ignores the fact that there is undeniable pride and a definite sense of community found in Engineering. We challenge any other faculty on campus to show a comparable level of involvement and spirit. These are definitely not byproducts of the mass homogenisation of a group of colourless non-individuals but rather they are the benefits ,pf the melding of the talents and aptitudes of many interesting and sentient students. By attaching clearly stereotypical images to Engineering as a whole, Ken Btyson inadvertently proved his mind to be impregnably closed. One has only to look at the initiative taken over the summer by A-Society’s VP-Internal, Piyush

Bhatnapar, in organising a thoughtful and well publiciseci discussion on the topics of racism, sexism and homophobia to see that attitudes within Engineering are changing. We, as engineering students, were hoping to usher in a new era of understanding and cooperation between students of different academic backgrounds. However, if this type of moronic and unmitigated faculty-bashing is to continue spewing forth from the bowels of the supposedly “entightened” among us, then there is little hope for the future. Smarten up. Kim Jones, VP-External, EngSoc-I3 Marc Risdafe, Editor in Chief, The Iron Warrior P.S. We hate to p&k nits but the.dye used during frost-r week was purple, not orange. Good journalism is usually founded on a solid grasp of the obvious.

Feds not envirofriendly To the editor= Whaahoo!!! FREE STUFF!!! On Wed. Sept 22, tents wet-e set up outside of the Campus Centre, sheltering corporations with their freebies for U of W students. The atmosphere was festive as students stocked up on a month’s supply

of pop tarts and tampons. I’ll admit it, I joined in. Why not with the price of tampons being what it is? “Why not?” is exactly the question I asked myself when I walked past the “Waterloo Recycles” booth. Posters with the slogan “The Dump Starts Here” were free, as well as brochures about Uw’s WATgreen program. The posters showed a picture of a guy coming home from the mall with a bunch of stuff (he had to pay for his stuff); the message was that all this stuff would end up in the landfill. The brochure claims that WATgreen and UW students can work together to “transform the campus into a sustainable ecosystem”. So if Waterloo is so environmentally friendly, why does it support such an unsustainable event? Unsustainable for two reasons: tonnes of garbage is produced and a consumer attitude is encouraged. Some may argue that Campus Fest residue is recyclable. True, at the end of the day I saw Feds and Fest staff bundling the large cardboard boxes. But what about all the smaller boxes that went home with the students, and all the Coke bottles that ended up in the Campus Centre garbages? Besides, recycling is not the environmental answer. It is last on the 3R’s -- it should be used only after reduction and reusing have been exhausted. In our society, recycling serves only as a pacifier so that people don’t feel guilty enough to really do something. If we want the world to house future generations, our consumerism needs to stop. We need an entire lifestyle and attitude change (a paradigm shift to put it in ‘90’s terms). A lifestyle of heavy duty consumption is linear, non-sustainble - the

end will come sooner or later. Dave MC Dougall, the Fed man behind the event, claims to be a man of minimal consumerism. When I asked him why the corporations were here he said “FREE STUFF!“. These two notions do not go together. The Feds feel that they are pleasing the students by providing them with a party atmosphere and consumables. But how happy are we really? We can go to class one day full of sugar and caffiene. This is a superficial happiness. When 1 asked Dave whether the feds had considered the environmental implications of such an event he said that while making the decision to invite the corporations, his stomach went “eeuch” at the thought of the garbage. Obviously not “eeuch” enough to make the right decision. Because of his political situation, Dave feels the need to please all the people all the time. He tried to please me by citing examples of Federation environmental stewardship; he tried even harder to please the consuming masses by providing them with garbage. What is the answer to this mess? How can we act responsibly? Campus environmental organizations can petition that this sort of event is not held on campus. The Federation of Students can start to be accountable in their decision making. Most importantly, however, is what we the student can do. We need to realize the seriousness of our environmental situation and lead minimal consumerist lifestyles. We need to decide that we want our future to stand on a high quality of life, not a pile of pop tart boxes.

If you are a frosh, by now you will have realized that most of your first year classes that are not directed towards your major, introductory classes, are boring bullshit. Having attended a few of these introductory bul!shit classes, I can tell you that they are a waste of time. Required, but a waste of time. They are meant to appeal to everyone, and in doing so, interest no one. There is an idea, however misguided, behind this type of mandatory crap, and that is the idea of equality. We should all have the same kind of background, so that none of us are discriminated against blah blah blah. Of all the ideas which lefties cling to like flies on shit, it is the idea of equality. People should be treated equally, we are all equal, equality is good. Rarely do we find a reasonable account of what this really means. In the world we live in, people are not equal; not in any respect. Some are tall, some short, some fat, some thin, some smart, some not so smart. Of all the ideas which lefties shun like children to broccoli, it is the idea of discrimination. Discrimination is bad. If you discriminate, you are bad. Discrimination is like sexism and racism. When I am deciding where to eat, I discriminate. When I decide who to befriend, I am discriminating. When I eventually marry someone, I hope to be rather discriminating. If I own a business, and I am hiring someone, I am going to discriminate (amongst other things) between who is qualified, and who is not. This same type of discrimination should be applied to schools and classes. There is currently a (very successful) movement to destreani schools in Ontario. Spearheaded by the NDP, this movement is away from the basic/general/advanced streams into one

The main problem (there are many, but we’ll limit ourselves to two) with this kind of approach is two-fold. First of all, the students who are either more interested in a specific topic, or who find the work particularly interesting, are not atowed to pursue thier interests at a rate commensurate with their ability. They must wait for ther rest of the class, and at this point will probably get bored and decide not to work as hard as they might. Secondly, the struggling student who does not find that he or she can keep up with the rest of the class, and needs extra help, may become discouraged, and decide not to work as hard as they might. 1rocked at English, and I sucked at math. I would read ahead in English class, try not to miss a thing, and my outside interests were cultivated, which I suppose was an indirect result of my English class being incredibly boring. I did not find myself tried. ldid not find myself interested in the class (although, and this is important, I later found the works fascinating) and the works inside the class were boring. On the other hand, I found myself disinterested in mathematics. I found the class boring because I didn’t get the questions I had answered. 1 could average in the high seventies, but this still seemed odd, that I would do so much more work in this class, yet so tittle in another. The point being, that a general “equal” system does not serve the student It is a disservice to the student who requires extra help, and to the student who’s special interested cannot be cultivated, because there is some equal middle ground that has to be appeased. Equality is not necessarily a good thing. Treating unequal things equally can lead to undesirable outcomes. Likewise, discrimination, can lead to positive results. The suggested compromise is a high school composed of the equivalent of first year classes. God’ forbid.

Note: This article is written for those people who have faced the threat of nonexistence seriously. Only they will understand. You are on a hill side during exams, finding rest from this hectic race they call education. There is a slight breeze and you are lying beside the fence which keeps this solaced p<+k apart from the railroad and the rushing trains. Down the track about a mile or two there is a bridge you know all too well, where the cars fly by and you can see their blue, white and red hoods as you lie peacefully on the hill. You hear a sound. You look around and see two squirrels chasing each other; their dexterity fascinates you as you pluck a piece of grass and place it between your teeth a la Huckleberry Finn in the sun. In your estrangement you have grown attached to the earth. Although you hate it, you never want to leave the soil - you wish to be like the Phoenix, rising from the ashes.’ Suddenly h torrent rips through you. Beyond words &nd rain you jump on your bike to get away. Through the streets and aching of existence you rfde, and as you ride “it” calls you and grips the skin on your face. You make it to the corner of your s)reet and pay no heed to

the stop sign so bold and clever. You rush for your keys, only one key will fit the lock. You go to the basement, close yourself in the bathroom I even though the house is empry. The water from the tap is freezing and you throw it on your face to escape this desert. You wash and wash but “it” doesn’t leave. It laughs from the mirror and so you smash it in the tub. You scream, “Give me some fucking relief!” You face *‘it” alone. You are jealous of Jesus, even jealous of Judas because they knew what they were here for. You wish that woman with the silk-blond hair could have saved you. The rye is a temptation; and so is every other diversion. You want to fuck, dance and take up sewing - actually you just want something you can lose yourself in. You look in the tub and see the shattered “it” mingling with your blood. You know “it” will never leave you, and you accept that as the price for being human. You begin to clean up the mess and prepare a story for your mother as she gets home. For there is always tomorrow and you still have the prescription from that so-called doctor. You .head up to your room. Read your poetry books and psafms.

“WE (GOD) shall show them (the unbelievers) OUR Signs in the farthest horizons and in themselves until it becomes clear to them that This (The Qur’an) is the Truth. .*.” -translation of the meaning of part of the Qur’anic verse [4 I :53]

Islam and Modem Science: The Creation of the Universe by

Sameh E. Rehan

RELIGION and SCIENCE havealways been considered to be twin sisters by ISLAM. Even today, at a time when science has taken great strides, they still continue to be associated. Furthermore, certain scientific data are used for the better understanding of the Qur’anic text. In a century where, for many, scientific truth has dealt a deathblow to religious belief, it is precisely the discoveries of science that highlighted the supernatural character of certain aspects of the Islamic Revelation. Dr. Maurice Bucaille (an eminent French surgeon, scientist, scholar, and author of ‘The Bible, The Qur’an, and Science’) studied the Holy Qur’an thoroughly after learning the Arabic language. His final conclusion of this study, which lasted ten years, is that the statements about scientific phenomena in the Holy Qur’an are perfectly in conformity with modern sciences. In this article, part of Dr. Bucaille’s study about the creation of the universe in the Qur’an will be presented. There are absolutely fundamental data concerning the existence of an initial gaseous mass which is unique and whose elements, although at first fused together, subsequently became separated. This notion is expressed in the Holy Qur’an: (l)“And GOD turned to heaven when it was smoke ..I’ [4 I : I I]. (2)“Do not the unbelievers see that the heavens and the earth wer$ joined together, then WE (GOD) clove them asunder?” [2 I :30]. The separation process resulted in the formation of multiple worlds, a notion which crops up dozens of times in the Holy Qur’an, once it has formed the first verse in the first

Imprint

- driven

chapter: “Praise be to GOD, the LORD of the worlds” [ I : I]. All this is in perfect agreement with modern ideas on the existence of primary nebula and the process of seconctary separation of the elements that had formed the initial unique mass. This separation resulted in the formation of galaxies and then, when these divided, of stars from which the planets were to be born. The expansion of the universe is the most imposing discovery of modern science. Today it is a firmly established concept and the only debate centres around the way this is taking place. The following Qur’anic verse, where GOD is speaking, may perhaps be compared with modern ideas: “The heaven, WE (GOD) built it with Power. Verily, WE are expanding It” [5 I :4T]. In a lecture given by Dr. Bucaille on this same subject at the Commonwealth Institute in London, he stated: ‘How could a man living fourteen hundred years ago have made corrections to the existing description to such an extent that He eliminated scientifically inaccurate material and, on His own initiative, made statements that science has only in the present day been able to verify? This hypothesis is completely untenable.’ This article is excerpted from the Islamic brochures ‘The Qur’an and Modern Science’ and ‘The Developing Human .. according to the Qur’an, the Hadith (the recorded sayings of the Prophet Muhammad), and Modern Embryology’ published by ‘Dawah to the People’ (USA branch) 1992.

special to Imprint In thesetimes of”intelligent”cameras, electronic games and coffeemakers, it seems strange that at some point many computer scientists thought that computers would never be able to perform nontrivial tasks. Even today, many people are still unaware ofwhat computers can and cannot do. It is sometimes amusing to see a scientist’s face light up with surprise when shown some computer tools that have been available for over a decade (like computer graphics, symbolic mathematics, etc.), and their disillusionment when told that computers still can’t efficiently perform some apparently simple tasks (simple for a computer) like finding the optimal route to be followed by a courier delivering packages all over the city. The history of computer chess is plagued by similar under-and overstatements put forward by laypeopleand experts alike. Though chess is an ideal problem to attack computers with. Its aims are clearly defined (to play good chess) and its advancement can be easily measured (player ranking). Computer chess may give a down to earth perspective on what is and is not currently possible with a computer and how much effort it may take to achieve a specific goal in computer development

History

of Computer

Chess

In 1950, the first computer chess program was written by Alan Turing, a British researcher who pioneered the field of digital computers. At the time, Turing had to settle for a simulation of the execution of his program with pencil and paper. Turing’s program was a terrible player, but it served its main purpose well: it showed that computers can play chess. In the same year, Claude Shannon plotted a plan of action for computers to eventually be programmed to play good chess. Given the exceedingly low speed of computers in the I 950 it was not clear whether computers would ever be able to beat humans even in games as simple as checkers. In 1958, a chess program beat a human player for the first time. The human player, a secretary of the team of programmers who had never played chess before, was taught how to play just an hour before the game, and was beaten by the chess program. As unremarkable as this feat may seem today, it served to show that knowledge could be embedded into a chess program (about an hourtraining worth of knowledge, to be precise). After this victory, some of the first programmers of chess playing computers predicted that before the sixties were over a computer chess program would be the chess world champion. At the end of the sixties, Spassky was the world chess champion and computer programs played at the level of an average high school chess player. This encouraged some to claim that computers would never be able to perform

any intelligent task, not to mention obtaining the world chess championship title! However, the prediction was made anew in the seventies, on this occasion involving a bet between David Levy, a British chess master (chess players are classified by the International Federation of Chess according to their per-

From the current status of computer chess it is safe to say that I994 will be the earliest time for which another match between the human world chess champion and Deep Thought may be arranged and possibly won by DT, if not even later. As a colleague of the auironithor says -half cally, halfseriously-“At times it seems that all that we have achieved in 40 years of computer chess research is to drop the prediction time from ‘sometime in the next decade’ to ‘in the next three years’.” Are these three year predictions founded?

How do computers

(and

play chess?

A computer can play chess, simply bygenerating moves at random, checking if they are valid according to the rules of chess, and playing any one of them. Of course, such a computer weld be a fairly bad player. $ This approach has been tried, just out of scientific curiosity, and the chess programs resulting from this scheme were usually beaten in less than five moves. (In chess jargon, a move is a pair of “plays,” meaning the move of the player with the white chessmen together with the black reply. One play or half a move is either the white or black play/reply). Once it has been established that a computer can play chess the question is if it is possible for a computer to play good chess. In principle, it is possible to design a computer program that considers all possible consequences of its moves until the very end of the game is reached and then chases the optimal strategy. The optimal strategy will be one that, regardless of which moves are selected by the opponent, always finds a winning sequence of moves. As an example we have tic-tat-toe where the optimal strategy always attains.a tie or a victory. Regardless of the action taken by the opponent, a good tic-tat-toe player is able to choose a drawing or winning response. In other words, when such a hypothetical computer is considering its move, it would try every possible legal move,

In I 950 Claude Shannon proposed two basic strategies for restricting the number of possibifities to be considered. Both of these strategies, with minor modifications, are still used today by competent and incompetent chessprograms alike. The so-called “Shannon type A strategy” considers all possible moves up to certain number of plays at which point some criteria is applied to choose the best possible of the moves considered based upon the positions attained at the end of the search. The idea is that, since it is not possible to try all the possible responses and counter-responses until the game is finished, the computer restricts the number of plays or the depth of the search to a number that allows it to produce a reply in a reasonable amount of time. It is rather interesting to note that human chess players too, look ahead only a limited number of plays until some satisfactory position is achieved. Of course, the computer needs some method to evaluate the positions reached after the sequence of plays is considered and to select the best sequence among them. For the evaluation of a position, an evolucttion fin&n assigns a number to each position according to characteristics which are known to give an advantage to the player -like material or positional advantage, development, etc. If after a sequence of moves the computer has more chessmen on the board and a strong attack, the position is assigned a large positive integer, whereas, if after said sequence the situation is exactly the opposite, the negation of the number previously mentioned is assigned. The Theory of Games, originally developed by Morgensten and Von Neumann, gives us a way of selecting the best sequence among all the moves tried and evaluated. Van Neumann and Morgensten realized that agame can be seen as a tree of positions and possible moves, namely a tree rooted in the current position with each branch repree4 Nal senting each of the possible legal moves, and leading to new nodes in the tree which are the resulting positions after each move; where

and for each of these it would consider

again

all the possible replies that the opponent may play, and then all possible replies that the computer may play at this time, and so on. After this analysis is completed the computer chooses the sequence of moves that forces a win regardless of what the opponent plays. Such a computer would play “perfect chess.” This approach is not practically feasible, since the number of possibilities that need to be explored is astroI OA44 nomically large -approximately (the number of particles in the universe is estimated to be IO”23). The quest for the optimal move among the astronomical number of possibilities is approximated by means of restricting the number of possibilities or moves to be considered -the size of the search space.

branches are added and so on (See Figure I). At any given-node,-the player to move chooses that move -a branch of the tree-which maximizes the gain of that player (or equivalently, minimize its opponent’s gain). A system derived from this method is called a “mini-max strategy.” Whether or not a move maximizes a player’s gain can be determined by applying the evaluation function to the resulting position. In this situation,

formance. Titles ar$ then granted appropriately, among them lntem&ional Master (IM), Grand Master (GM), and World Champion. Mr. Levy is an IM.), and John McCarthy, a distinguished researcher in Artificial Intelligence (the field dedicated to the study and devetopment of computers that can perform tasks deemed to involve intelligent reasoning), The bet, of more modest intentions, claimed that by 1978, a computer would be able to beat Mr. Levy in a chess match, In 1978, the best chess program at the time (CHESS 4.7) was beaten by D. Levy in a best-of-five match played in Toronto with a score of 3 wins for the human, a draw, and a win for CHESS 4.7. Not only had Mr. Levy beaten the computer, he also pocketed, according to the terms of the bet, a sum exceeding a thousand pounds. If the purpose of the bet was to make researchers think twice before predicting a victory, then this bet barely served it; In spite of the failed l958I968 and I968- I 978 predictions, computer chess experts forecasted again thatacomputer would obtain the world chess championship during the next ten years! Their logic was that after all, there is a long path from average high school level to extracting one game from an International Chess Master -the game lost by Mr. Levy. Furthermore, by this time, almost nobody doubted that computers might be able to perform some intelligent tasks, though perhaps by different means and ways than those used by humans. But yet again, I988 came around and still the chess champion was human. The next year, the Deep Thought (DT) chess computer easily beat IM Levy. DT was (and still is) the strongest chess computer ever built DT fares among the top one hundred players in the world. Predictions come, predictions go. DT’s developers claimed that the world title was now a mere three years away from the Deep Thought computer. An exhibition match played in I989

his/her move according

to the

newly obtained scores for all positions at this level of the tree. Eventually, a score will be assigned to the positions at the level just below the starting position of the tree+ The computerthen simply selects that move leading to the position with the best evaluation score. Even the fastest computers to date cannot go beyond a depth of ten play on the average game tree. This is due to the exponential increase in the number of moves to be considered with each subsequent level considered. A search using a type A strategy to a depth of ten play requires the study of half a quadrillion moves on the average. (At the beginning or near the end of the game or in other specialized positions, computers do reach a 20 play depth or

more.) In principle, keeping the tree in memory would be an ideal to strive for, and as the game proceeds the search would deepen, with unused branches being disposed of. In practice, the tree is so large that it is not possible to store it in memory, and the computer is forced to recalculate the whole tree at each move. If at the starting position the computer is looking ahead ten plays, the last move to be considered is the fifth move. Afterthe computer and its opponent make a move, the computer will now look ahead up to move six, and so on. The second strategy, attributed also to Shannon, is the so-called type B strategy, which limits the number of moves that are considered at each level. A move generator determines a set of reasonably good replies for each given position. A typical move generator chases approximately eight possible moves for each position. Furthermore, the number of levels of the tree is not predetermined. In general, a minimum depth of plays are examined and furthermore, if the position is found to be unstable -say a position in the middle of a sequence of captures, or a check on the kingthe position is

When the resulting position is examined by the computer, it is selected for it’s material ad&age, despite that in the next move, the queen may be captured by, say, a pawn, resulting in a net loss for player A. Interestingly, a deep search is not effective if only a few moves are selected at every position. For this reason, programs running in high speed computers tend to be of class A, whereas programs running on microprocessor architectures use strategy B.

Stopthe Whitewash

INVISIBLETHREAT

Is the health

by Daryl WmRG

by Dava m.?cuy WZWZG The

Vohmteer

Whitewash campaign was in England to protest the unnecessary bleaching of paper products. When the chlorine, which is used to bleach or clean out the mill, clings to oxygen and benzene molecules, it produces a by-product called 2,3,7,8 TCDD, more commonly known as dioxin. Mixed with other chemicals found in the mill, the chlorine also produces other harmful toxins, like furans, but dioxin is the deadliest of the by-products. One drop of dioxin spilled into an Olympic sized swimming pool is enough to kill a guinea pig. Dioxin is released into the environment when mills dump waste from the bleaching process into nearby lakes, rivers or oceans. People who receive their drinking water from these places invariably ingest some of these toxins. The now white paper product also harbours dioxin residue in its fibres. There are many reasons to be alarmed. This toxin, alone and/or in conjunction with other synthetic toxins, causes cancer, mutations, deformities and death in all types of wildlife; humans are also victims. Studies indicate that children born to mothers who eat Great Lakes fish weigh less on average. In later years they may perform poorly on mental tests, such as memory. This could affect their reading abilities. The World Health Organization reports that chlorine based toxins, that includes dioxin, are responsible for a large part of human cancer. So how safe is the diaper and tampon you use? The governments of Canada and the U.S. have known about the harmful effects of dioxin since the early 1980s. Why did they not do something about it sooner? The answer is simple. The paper industry is the backbone of Canada’s economy. Canadians consume about 250 kgs of paper per capita per year. Women spend $2 billion a year on these products in North America alone! And, as stated in a leaked U.S. paper industry document in 1987, if consumers were made aware of the dangers of dioxin, their (the paper industry’s) sales would plunge. The horror does not stop there! Since tongue depressors, bandages and dental floss are considered medical devices, they are subjected to rigorous sanitation standards. Sanitary pads are not considered medical, or cosmetic. Feminine hygiene products are not considered at all, and are not subjected to government sanitation laws. They are subject to the safety standards of the company alone. So, a maxi pad made byJohnson and Johnson in England is allowed I 000 bacteria counts per item , and the same one made in Malaysia was allowed 7 700 bacteria counts per item. On top of all this is the huge waste problem. Not only are diapers and sanitary products over packaged, they take up precious room in our landfill sites. Flushing tampons down the toilet is not the solution either. They clog waste treatment plants, which costs thousands of dollars to clean out. Some places, like Victoria, Montreal and Halifax, dump the waste, and tampons, directly into the ocean or river. Women may purchase 100% of these seemingly innocent products, but the majority know nothing about them. The WPIRG Stop the Whitewash Workgroup calls for the removal of all chlorine based compounds in all stages of production for pulp and paper products. The group focuses on the harmful effects of bleaching paper white, as well as the mismanagement in production and use of tampons, maxi pads and diapers. Whitewash also teaches viable alternatives to the conventions of diapers, tampons and maxi pads.

The debate over Extremely-LowFrequency magnetic radiation fields and their effect on the human body has gone on for decades. Two types of fields are associated with electricity - magnetic fields and electric fields. Magnetic fields are produced whenever there is a current flowing in a conductor, for instance, a high voltage power line, or a power cord for appliances. Although people can readily shield themselves from electric fields, ELF magnetic fields pass through most substances. In late 1992, pare& ih East York called for measurements to be taken at Bennington Heights Public School. Their demand had been prompted by an article on power lines by author Paul Brodeur, ‘Currents of Death: Power lines, Computer Terminals, and the Attempt to Cover Up Their Threat to Your Health” and a I992 Swedish epidemiological study. The Swedish study which was “based on the population comprised of everyone who have lived on a property located within 300 meters from any of the 220 and 400 kV power lines in Sweden during the period from 1960 through 1985” concluded that “the

being

corn-promised

results provide support for the hypothesis that exposure to magnetic fields increases the risk of cancer. This is most evident in childhood leukemia.” Their ftndings also concluded that relative risk increased above 2 milligauss (unit of measurement of magnetic field strength). In January I 993, levels of 8 - I 0 milligauss were measured in the kindergarten room of Bennington Heights Public School and 6 milligauss in the library which was in a portable at the south end. As a result of an independent study, the East York Board of Education recommended permanent closure of the kindergarten room and movement of two portables to the north end of the school. “The Board moved with speed and concern,” said Leslie Waters, CoPresident of Bennington Heights Home and School. Concern over ELF magnetic fields in Waterloo stems back to 1987. In August I987 and December 1988, two sets of measurements were taken at Mary Johnston Public School which is beside a hydro corridor. The measurements were taken in the kindergarten room at the north end, the music room, the corridors, and the office. The main entranceway (closest to the hydro lines} showed measurements of IO and I6

milligauss. “lfonearsumes that children spend most of their time inside the classrooms while they are in school, it seems that measurements should be conducted in all classrooms. We need to know the magnetic field strength in all classrooms which should be below 2 milligauss,” said retired UW chemistry professor Dr. Hari Sharma. Dr. Sharma, who was consulted in the Bennington Heights public school case, has offered to do measurements at no cost to the Waterloo Board of Education. In 1989, the Waterloo County Board of Education decided there was no need to monitor electromagnetic radiation in schools. Because scientific studies continue to indicate that there are deleterious health effects associated with ELF magnetic fields, in March 1993, the Committee for a Safe Environment in Schools requested Mary Johnston Public School be remeasured. The request was turned down. On May 3, I993 the Committee for a Safe Environment in Schools made a presentation to the Management Committee of the Waterloo Board of Education. They proposed that there be a remeasurement of Mary Johnston in all classrooms by an independent researcher, and that a longitudinal study

be conducted monitoring Mary Johnston and other schools tlwoughout the Board. The Management Committee of the Board refused to act on the recommendation and instead called for a report from staff - staff who had already publicly declared that there is no reason for concern. On June 7, 1993 the staff repoF was presented. Staff recommended that no action be taken because they felt there is not enough conclusive etidence on the harmful effects of ELF magnetic fields and that the type of measurements used to determine magnetic field strength is not effective. At this same meeting, WPIRG chailenged the interpretation of the scientifc data presented in the staff report. But despite this challenge, the Management Committee voted to take no action until they receive some direction by senior levels of government. The WPIRG Radiation Workgroup will continue to work on this issue with local parents. Possible plans include conducting a study of local schools, compiling more information on recent research, and initiating an educational campaign to inform the public.

Promise and disappointmentwere the order of the day again last Saturday for the Waterloo Warrior football team. Despite getting their offence on track, running up 336 yards in a 22-5 win over the York Yeomen, the team lost starting tailback Mike Son with a season-ending knee injury. Sefore leaving the game late in the first half, Son rambled I I6 yards on 12 carries, Waterloo’s first post-Chartier I 00-yard rushing performance, and helped Waterloo build a 2 I - I half-time lead. The win evens Waterloo’s record at I -I, while York drops to O-2 on the season and O-33 since October I, 1988. That’s right, the Yeomen are noti coholders of Waterloo’s infamous consecutive loss streak. York will try to avoid breaking that record torn&-row when they travel to Windsor to play the O-2 Lancers. Waterloo heads down to London to play the I - I Western Mustnngs, 3 I 7 losers to the 2-O Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawks. The Toronto Varsity Blues share first place in the OUAA with the Hawks after thrashing Windsor 63-2 I at Varsity Stadium. The I- I Guelph Gryphons beat the l-l McMaster Marauders 26- 12. Behind the inspired running of Son, the Warrior offence finally blossomed against York This, combined with a couple of big plays, helped UW build a 21- I half-time lead. This lead should have been even more, as Waterloo moved the ball at will on their first two possessions of

the game, only to fumble it awaiat York’s=1 7 and I O-yard lines. After Gory Delaney conceded a single on a wide field goal attempt by York’s Vie Cattalano, Waterloo got back on track with a 75-yard drive that took less than three minutes at the end of the first quarter. The drive was keyed by a 52-yard run by Son, who took an option pitch from Bennet, swept left through the line, and cut back to the middle with a pretty piece of openfield running. The drive was capped off by a I O-yard option run by Bennet late in the first quarter put Waterloo ahead 7-l. Midway through the second quarter, safety Taiy Williams preyed upon a long out-pattern pass from rookie quarterback Mattfurner, stepping in front of York’s Jeremy Acton to pick it off and streak

Chased out of the pocket to his left, the southpaw stepped up between two defenders and launched a perfect %I-yard spiral to Adrian Thorne on the fly for another score. Bennet’s passing faltered in the second half, but his running ability, along with that of Son’s replacement at tailback Jarret Smith and fullback Mike Mallot, sealed the victory. Smith filled in admirably with 8

rushes for 47 yards in the second half. Bennet ran 5 times for 54 yards and Mallot chipped in with 52 yards on I2 rushesThe defence clamped down on York as well, allowing only 94 yards in the second half, 220 on the game. Four of York’s five points came on a pair of second-half safeties conceded by punter Rick Guenther.

The final score overshadowed another brilliant performance by York tailback Leonard Jean-Pierre, who ran 2 I times for I 27 yards. This followed a I67-yard performance versus McMaster the weekend before that earned him OUAA player of the week honours. Uw’s stingy secondary kept Turner at bay.

Tuesday night at the brand-spanking new Waterloo Recreation Complexafforded local hockey fans a chance to glimpse the future of the Toronto Maple Leafs, in the form of a preseason game between the St. John’s Maple Leafs and the Rochester Americans, farm club of the Buffalo Sabres. The game, which ended as a 5-5 overtime tie, had moments of sheer excitement, but even longer stretches of poorly played, dull hockey. It was obvious that the majority of these players were juniors fighting for spots on their first pro club, and Bill Watters, assistant GM of the Toronto club, confirmed this. “Most of these guys are going back to their junior clubs,” Watters said. “Maybe three or four will stay.”

He stressed that the Leafs first round picks would likely remain, but the more impressive players, like Swede Daniel Jardomyr, Seattle forward Ola Kjenstad, and Brantford Smoke star Alex Kurminsky needed more junior training. Present NHL head of pro scouting and former head coach of the Toronto Maple Leafs Tom Watt discussed the origins and status of many of the baby Leafs. Most are Canadian boys playing on US college teams, but he would prefer if they would play in Canada. Watt, who also coached the University of Toronto varsity hockey program for IS years, lauded Canada’s universities for allowing players wirh major junior experience to play on their teams, something US colleges do no allow. This enables players to get an education, as well as play hockey, which

A coach,*’ he said, leaving no doubt of his real desires. European scout Anders Hedberg and new goaltending coach Rick Wamsley provided insight as to the players in Tuesday’s game, but Wamsley let it be known that he would rather be playing. “You miss the competitiveness. Being in the room with the guys, But it’s been easier (the transition to coaching) because-the last few years I haven’t been playing so much.” Rick also discussed the status of Damian Rhodes, rookie Leaf goali+, saying “He’s done everything he can at the minor league level.

The game itself was poorly advertised, and consequently poorly attended. Roughly 1,500 fans attended the 3,500-seat complex, new home of the Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawks. Local hockey aficionados said they might go to Laurier games, just because the arena is so good. The best part of the game was the youngfans, notably my seatmates Lance (age seven) and Travis (age six), who were very excited and vocal. They were hoping for autographs, goals, and fights, all of which were found in the match. Hopefully .some of the players in the game will make “The Show,” and Lance and Travis will be there to see them.

On Sunday morning, less than a day after their 3 l-7 loss at the hands of the Laurier Golden Hawks, Haylor was on the phone to Warrior head coach Dave “Tuffy” Knight asking for film of Waterloo’s 22-5 win over York. “The Mustangs are going to be all

out

fired up for this game,” says Knight, whose Warriors head down the 40 I tomorrow for a 2 p.m. game at UWO’s j. W. Little Stadium. If Waterloo hopes to dominate on the ground again, as they did while rushing for 260 yards versus York, they’ll have to make do without tailback Mike Son, who sustairied a season-ending knee injury. Fullback Mike Mallot and rookie tailback jarret Smith wifl have to fill the void. Mallot rushed six times for 87 yards against Toronto, including a 5 I -yard run.

Waterloo’s defence will have to contend with another strong running game. FullbackTim Tindale, I99 I’s Hec Crighton trophy winner as the CIAU’s most valuable player, totalled I 26 yards on 20 carries against WLU. The Mustangs may be without starting quarterback Eric Ursic, who had to leave last Saturday’s game against Laurier with an ankle sprain. As of Wednesday, he was listed as day-today. Fourth-year player Warren Goldie is Ursic’s back-up.

The Athena soccer team lost both of their games last weekend, to Brock and to CIAU champions taurier, both by a 1-O score. The Athenas host Western on Saturday and Windsor on Sunday, both games at Columbia Field at 3 p.m. Dhoto

This year’s varsity women’s tennis team consists of eight players. Kati Afkhami, Renee Kasta, Plargo Metcalfe, Teresa Kindree, and Janet Tseng have stayed on from last year. The team is also fortunate to have Jennifer Patriquin and Manju Sekhri back, both players returning from havm ing last played during the 199 I season. Also, newcomer Stephanie Salbach has been added to the roster. Head coach Kristyn Klopp admit-

ted that she had a hard time selecting a team, since many promising new players as well as veterans came out this year. After only one week of combined tryouts and training, the tennis Athenas were set to play in a Laurier-hosted tournament last weekend. They were up against Laurier and the historically strong second-ranked York Yeowomen. On Friday, versus Laurier, UW number-one seed Afkami and second seed Salbach played some exciting singles matches, with both players ousting

their opponents in three tough sets. The rest of the singles matches were won easily, while the three doubles teams were also successful, leading to a sweep of 9-O against the Golden Hawks at the end of the day. The next day, the Athenas faced York with two top-seeded players missing from our team. Although everyone gave it their best shot, York prevailed with another sweeping score of 9-0, this time with us on the “love” side. The UW team is training hard this week to prepare for Queen’s University’s visit to Waterloo this Saturday.

Warrior Kickmeisters toGoldenChickensand by Nicholas Mew Impint sports Warrior soccer head coach Dave Benning, confident the Warriors will be in the playoffs this year, guided his team to two wins last weekend, against cross-street rivals Wilfrid laurier and the Brock Badgers. The undefeated Warriors (2-O-I) go into two home games this weekend against Western and Windsor. Last season, Waterloo eliminated Windsor in the playoffs, only to lose to Western, so these games promise to be vengeful events as teams hope to redeem themselves. On September 18, the Warriors squared off against the Brock Badgers, who had lost only one player since last season. Waterloo appeared to be a different team since last game, as passes were crisper, and the onfield communication was much improved. Brock scored first at the 25-minute mark, as the Warrior backline was caught upfield, giving the Badgers a threeL on-two.

UW’s Everton Barnes Keeper Abdel Plummer dove for it, but during Waterloo’S 2 missed on the short side Saturday. of the 22-yard blast. Benning subsequently reminded his players to watch their assignments, in no uncertain terms. Waterloo took the game to Brock at this point. having several excellent chances. A free kick just outside the box cleared the wall and the Badger in net had to make a diving save. Another

shot from the corner of the box crossed the net and just missed the far post as the Warriors pressed. Just before the half, the Warrior keeper stopped a well tagged free kick, and Waterloo moved it up quickly. A free kick from the resulting play ended in a shot barely over the net, but one could tell the Warriors would put one in soon. Sure enough, five minutes before the half, co-captain Jason Pither hit the crossbar with a 30-yard free kick, but the . rebound was decisively headed in by Chris Brown to tie the score. The second half saw Waterloo really pressure Brock, who started to panic and make mistakes. Both sides had some excellent chances, however, including two sure goals against the Warriors, the first. . a breakaway stopped by

well but was injured thanks to a mid-air collision with the f3rock keeper as he aggressively challenged for an air ball. Sunday’s game against the Golden Chickens had less scoring, but much more spirit, as there was obvious animosity between the two teams. Hard tackles and rough play were the order of the day, causing yellow cards to be handed out to Chris Brown and Shawn Tagger-t, the latter one card away from a suspension:Chances were few, as neither team allowed the other to get near the net. Nonetheless, new keeper Mike Radencichi earned a shutout, stopping everything that came his way, and leaving it to the rest of the team to score for the win. Veteran forward Alex Adachi provided the only offense, scoring a beautiful goal early in the second half. Adachi was sent ahead with the ball, facing two defenders and the keeper. Everyone converged on the ball and it squirted loose and out of the keepers reach near the edge of the box. Breaking clear of the pile with determination, Adachi found himself with the ball and an empty net, which didn’t stay empty for long.

The Warriors look better with each game, but there is still a lot of work to be done. Benning, a very vocal “hands-on” type of coach, was unhappy at various times during both games, due to lackadaisical play by Warriors who were floating. These players were told “You wanna play, you gotta move,” and undoubtedly they will be put through their paces in practice. After Sunday’s game, the coach took the players well out of earshot, and gave them a good tongue lashing, to remind them how to play. Pending the outcome of this weekend’s games, Waterloo could be ranked nationally in the top ten for the first time in 25 years. Currently, Waterloo is a point back of West division-leading Guelph, who is ranked tenth nationally. MeMaster, one point back of Waterloo, is ranked ninth. Waterloo’s five points have come in only three games. They will be tested against some formidable opponents in Western and Windsor, but the team is sure to perform well under Benning. Hopefully, fan attendance will increase to provide the kickmeisters some much-needed vocal support.

Rugby Rugby can be a very frustrating game. One need only have witnessed the Waterloo Warriors’ season-opener versus Western to be assured of this faa On a day in which the conditions were perfect for rugby and in which both Warrior sides played very good rugby, both the Varsity and Junior Varsity sides fell just short of opening their respective seasons on a winning note. From the opening whistle of the varsity game, Waterloo, decked out in their new 25th anniversary jerseys, showed that they had come to play aggressive and entertaining rugby. At the four-minute mark, after applying relentless pressure on the Western goal-line, Waterloo was rewarded with a penalty from about 30 yards out. Simon Lewis calmly stroked the kick through to give Waterloo the 3-O lead. From the ensuing kickoff Western broached the Waterloo half for the first time in the game. Unfortunately the Warriors conceded a penalty almost immediately and quickly the teams were once again level. For the next I5 minutes, Waterloo once again provided the bulk of the entertaining rugby with Simon Lewis running his back line or kicking the ball upfield to gain an attacking position. After I8 minutes Waterloo was awarded two penalties in the space of six minutes, the second of which Simon Lewis put through from forty yards out, putting his side up 6-3 after 22 minutes. During this whole stretch, the ‘Stangs were quite content to play their characteristic brand of boring, conservative rugby by kicking everything in sight in order to relieve the relentless pressure from our boys in black and gold. Then it happened -- quite possibly the best try this rugby fan has seen scored in his four years of watching OUAA rugby. At the 24-minute mark, Waterloo ran the ball out to the wing on what appeared to be a relatively

Warriors innocuous play. However, winger Stelios Nikolakakis, finding a little room on the outside, took the ball up the side line about 20 yards before giving it back inside to Steve Keith, supporting in the outside centre position. Keith then proceeded to show why he will be key to the success of the Warriors this season. Cutting inside to avoid the oncoming defenders, he proceeded to make an incisive run into heart of the Western defence. Thirty yards later, on the Western 22-yard line, the five points were a foregone conclusion. With the support of our far more mobile pack in the form of Randy Martin and Dale ‘RoboProp’ Finlay, Waterloo scored the first try of the game. Simon Lewis missed the convert, but Waterloo was up I 1-3. It was becoming clearer all the time who the better team was. However, a minute later, Waterloo made the first of two mental errors that ultimately cost them the win. Firstly, they failed to retreat the required ten yards from a penalty for offsides IS yards out which then became a penalty 5 yards from their goal-line. The Western lock forward then took the ball over fairly easily for the try which was converted. This made the score at half time, Waterloo I I-Western IO. That try, coupled with the loss of Steve Keith to a knee injury, seemed to demoralize the Warriors somewhat as they came out very flat for the first IO minutes of the se;eond half. In this period, Western was able to add to their lead through a penaIry and a converted try. This try also was the result of a mental lapse, which Western opportunistically took advantage of. This seemed to vrnke Waterloo UP. Led by man-of-the-match, eighth man Anthony Beaty who was all over the field throughout the game, the Warriors mounted a spirited comeback attempt At I4 minutes, Simon Lewis added three more points to his personal points tally of I2 for the match, after some good running by the backs forced Western to concede a penalty. With seven minutes remaining in

outplay the match, and with Waterloo about 45 yards out, the ball was spun quickly to Lewis at flyhalf. He had a play on, called 23 skidoo, a fake 2-3 switch with the ball going to the blindside winger coming in between the first centre and the flyhalf. Veteran speedster josh Windsor made full use of a beautifully executed play to gain about 30 yards before spreading the ball out wide. In the ensuing ruck, Western, once again due to extreme pressure, conceded another penalty. Lewis again converted the kick, bringing the Warriors to within three points of their opponents at 17-20. It was however, not to be. With five minutes left, Western added three more points making the score 23-l 7, the way it ended up when the final whistle blew. Despite relentless pressure, Waterloo was not able to break through the solid Western defence in the last 5 minutes. Unfortunately, at times rugby games aren’t decided on the basis of who plays the better brand of rugby. Western made fewer mistakes on the day and despite being totally uncreative and, quite frankly, boring, came away with the win. Despite the loss, the Warriors can take heart from the fact that they clearly dominated the game and that it was only the first of the season. With some more practice to iron out the mistakes they made, the Warriors should be a force to contend with this season in UUAA rugby. The junior Varsity game was basically a repeat of the previous game. Waterloo ptayed the exciting, attacking rugby white Western just relieved pressure with the kicking game. When they did deign to run the ball to their backs, the Waterloo defence completely stifled them with hard aggressive tackling. The first I5 minutes were uneventful score-wise, but Waterloo put on quite a display of attacking rugby. Jeff Naylor, one of ten rookies on the JVs this year showed that he will be hard to keep off the varsity side with some good runs at winger. At the I 3-minute mark, Western

UWO opened the scoring with a converted try, after Waterloo conceded a free kick for foot-up in the strum about 20 yards from the goal-line. There was no more scoring until three minutes from time. It all started with an excellent kick for touch by Eric Ciezar that took Waterloo down to the Western twoyard line. Shawn Johnstone won the jine out with a gooh leap and Waterloo was off and running. Western managed to hold them out and won the strum in the process but promptly conceded a penalty five yards out The Waterloo pack, rather unimaginatively, ran the ball right at the Western pack and gave up the ball to

Western in a set strum. Wily second-year scrumhalf Gerard Lynch, having given his opposing number fits up to that point, really embarrassed him by stealing the ball from under his nose and dotting it down for the try to pull Waterloo back to within two. Flyhalf Steve Goodacre converted to even the score at the half. The second half saw Waterloo make several substitutions in order to allow some rookies to get a taste of university rugby. These substitutions probably cost us the game but only because the Warriors lacked the experience to finish off good attacking play.

The Athena and Warrior cross country teams were in high spirits as they began their trek to the I 9th annual Western Invitational Cross Country Meet in London. The skies were clear with an ambient temperature of 20 degrees, a perfect day for a mea contrary to the weather forecast The meet took place at the picturesque Thames Valley Golf Club, with its rolling hills and beautiful foliage. The course, a fwe-kilometre loop, was as tough as the usual Ontario competition was joined by teams from the United States: Eastern Michigan, Central Michigan, Detroit Mercy, Buffalo, Saginaw Valley, and Syracuse. The Warriors were represented by a strong team led by Jason Gregoire, who placed ninth individually in a field of I28 runners. Gregoire crossed the finish line with a fantastic time of 33:03. A new addition to the team, Hans Reiss, was the second Warrior to finish, placing 19th in the field. Filling the rest of the top five were Mike Ready, Scott McDonald, and Jim Mylet placing 84th, 85t.h, and 87th respertively. Roundingouttheteam were Denis Paradine, Paul Godkin, and Jonathan Cressman, who all faced the hills fearlessly. “Who was that Judith LeRoy!”

was the fearful question posed by all Queen’s and Western runners as she flew by. Yes, our own Judith LeRoy ran a fantastic race to place 12th individually in a field of I25 runners. LeRoy finished the race in a hurry in a time of I 9~06, beating last year’s time by almost two and a half minutes. Sarah Brown also put in a tough race, placing 25th just 30 seconds behind the speedy LeRoy. The third runner for the Athenas, Sherry Carter, placed 37th in the field hot on the heels of LeRoy and Brown. Julia Norman and rookie Sarah Thompson both proved that they were tougher than the hills as they crossed the finish line in 62nd and 79th place respectively. Wrapping it up for the Athenas were Louise Touesnard and Cindy Koo who put in a good figk showing that no hill is too steep. Good work, girls. Coaches Brent McFarlane, John Swarbrick, and Gary Wilson were kept busy running all over the course cheering on alt the runners. Fortunately, no one sustained any injuries or cramped muscles as a result of our efforts which gave Kevin, our trainer, ample time to be part of our busy cheering section. On Saturday, September 25 (tomorrow), the Warriors and Athenas will be running at Quen’s University in Kingston. Good luck to all members of the cross country team and -0 Judith, go get those gals from Queen’s!

As teams are realigned, players move, and new cities are added, change is the word of the day for the upcoming National Hockey League season, which begins on Tuesday, October 5. For those of you who haven’t been paying attention, the NHLadded two teams to begin play this season, the Florida Panthers, based in Miami, and the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim. While neither team will make the playoffs, they will not be as pitiful as the Ottawa Senators were last year, and Ottawa will be greatly improved in this year’s campaign.

League

heads

south

for the winter

Expansion, and the move of the Minnesota North Stars to Dallas’ Reunion Arena, was the impetus behind the NHL’s realignment of teams and the renaming of the divisions and conferences. Gone are the history-rich names Smythe, Norris, Patrick, Adams, Campbelt, and Wales, replaced with the logical and understandable Pacific, Central, Atlantic, Northeast, West and East monikers. These names are similar to the National Basketball Association, NH1 commissioner Gary Bettman’s old stomping grounds. Hockey purists are upset over the name changes, but the league was acting in the interests of selling the game in the States, especially the south. The new set-up wiIi see the Western Conference with two less teams than the Eastern Conference, so you can bet your OSAP that the NHL’s next expansion will be to the south and west in the US, to exploit untapped markets, and increase the popularity of the game.

Conference

play

important

Realignment will see more emphasis on divisional and conference play, so Leafs-Habs games will still be few, and the tickets hard to obtain. Regular season contests will be more important, every game within the conference having meaning. The playoff format has also been changed, to ensure that the best teams in each conference

make the second season, and also to cut down on some of the ludicrous travel involved in the NHL playoffs. More when the playoffs start. The League has also decided to continue its experiment with neutral site games. Fans in several non-NHL cities will be treated to some regular season games that count in the standings. This year’s cities include Halifax, Hamilton, Phoenix, Orlando, Sacramento, Saskatoon, Cleveland, and Minneapolis. Some of these cities are being pacified by the NHL, notably Hamilton, while others are being felt out for future reference.

And the winner

is. . .

So who will win it all this year? As much as many in this area would like to see it, Toronto is not likely to advance as far as they did last season, and neither is Stanley Cup Champion Montreal. Look to Detroit, Pittsburgh, Vancouver, and the New York Rangers to win their divisions, and advance through the ranks to fight for the cup. Here’s a team-by-team preview of what you can expect for the upcoming season, arranged by conference and division, in order of predicted finish

Central Division Western Conference I. Detroit Red Wings - Look out for this team. They are bigger, tougher, and have more scoring punch than ever before. Coach Scatty Bowman, the winningest coach in NHL history, will whip this team into Cup-winning shape in no time. Yzerman, Fedorov, and Primeau provide depth up the middle, while the wings are stacked with Ciccarelli, Prober-t, Sheppard, Burr and Drake. A full season of Paul Coffey on defence will provide the forwards with all the breakaways and scoring chances they can handle. The only question marks are goaltending, and the lack of a true defensive defenceman. Mark Howe is just too old, 2. Winnipeg jets - They begged to be moved from the Smythe (now Pacific), and here they are in the Central (old Norris). Last year’s superior crop of jets rookies, led by flying Finn Teemu Selanne, should get better, and they will be followed by more outstanding hockey frosh, almost

entirely Europeans. Provided Essensa is strong in net and their defence corps holds out, they will take second in the Central. Their major problem now is Phil Housley, who wants out. Watch for a big trade and a career year for Phil. Hopefu Iiy, the Jets will deal for defence. 3. Toronto Maple leafs - The Chosen Ones. Potvin’s paid, but his backup is suspect. The team is aging, so rookies are bound to crack the lineup, especially forwards Alexel Kudashov and Thomas Kucharcik. If they can play all season Ii ke they did in the playoffs, anything is possible, but over 84 games it will be tough. Gilmour wilt still carry the weight of the team on most nights, and Andreychuk will have his best year if he gets to stand in the crease while Dougie dances. Let’s see what magic Cliff Fletcher (nominated for sainthood) can do this year. 4. Chicago Blackhawks - They still have a strong team, but it won’t be enough in the Central. Larmer wants to be traded, and this further weakens an already slim front line. Belfour will remain the number one goalie, but he will have to face more shots this year as the blueline is made of rookies and oldsters. 5. Dallas Stars - It’s a shame that this team will introduce hockey to Texas. Andy Moog is their new number one goalie, backing an average defence. A few of their players can produce, notably Modano and Gagner, but they’re still not going to get very far. Support in Dallas has been strong for the team, certainly better than the North Stars saw in Minnesota their last few years. 6. St. Louis Blues - Lets’s face it. All this team has is Brett Hull, Craig Janney, and goalie Curtis Joseph. Beyond that, holes are everywhere. The playoffs are not a possibility this year, barring a major trade and/or outstanding play by the Sutter boys and Brendan Shanahan, the NHL’s version of Baby Huey.

Pacific Western

Division Conference

I. Vancouver Canucks - Even without Nedved, who wants a new contract, and Anatoli Semenov,

gone to the Pond in Anaheim, these boys will take the Pacific. They have a well-balanced team, with speed, strength, and character players. Pave1 Bure is the flashiest player on the ice, but he’s only one part of a solid forward unit. Do not underestimate the contributions of Cliff Ronning, MurrayCraven,and Geoff CourtnaIl. Vancouver will benefit from playing the Sharks and Ducks six times each. 2. Los Angeles Kings - Cretzky operating at 70 per cent is still better than most players on their best days, assisted by steroids. The Kings traded McSorley for promising Pittsburgh forward Shawn McEachern to reduce the age of the forwards, and his development along with their young backline of Zhitnik, Blake, and Sydor, could see the Kings give Vancouver a run for the Pacific. A healthy Gretzky is crucial, but they have depth and great speed up front. Dave Taylor is back for his 17th season.

3. Calgary

Flames - Al Maclnnis and Gary Suter are still the best I-2 punch in hockey on defence. Behind them are some capable workmanlike players, and some good netminding. But, apart from Fleury, Nieuwendyk, and Roberts, they don’t have any threatening game breakers. 4. Edmonton/Hamilton/Houston Oilers Who knows where they’ll be next year. This season, they’ll only be fourth in the Pacificbecause the Sharks and Ducks will be worse. A lot of depth and experience lieft in the offseason, and so this year will ice a lot of rookies with no one to guide them. It will be ugly.

5. San Jose Sharks-They will be better than last year, under a 34-year-old novice coach, but don’t expect miracles. jimmy Waite, Jeff Not-ton and lgor Larionov are now Sharks, and will help make the team competitive. 4. Anaheim Mighty Ducks Disney knows how to market,

Northeast Division Eastern Conference I. Pittsburgh Penguins - The best team in the strongest division in hockey. Their ptayoff toss to the Islanders will not be repeated. Trottier’s out of retirement to play, McSorley’s been acquired from LA., and they have more forwards than they know what to do with. Lemieux’s health is a question mark, but they stilt have jagr, Tocchet, Francis, and Stevens. They strike fear in opponents with their defence, especially Ulf “I break knees for fun” Samuel sson and brry Murphy. 2. Quebec

Nordiques

- Another team of young, skilled forwards who can only get better. If Valeri Kamensky, the Russian Gretzky, can avoid injury and Martin Gelinas fulfils his potential, there will be nine power forwards who can score at will. Goaltending is very thin, resting on the shoulders of Stephane Fiset. Steve Duchesne wants to be traded, so the Nords will likely get another defenceman or goalie for him.

3. Buffalo Sabres - Picking up Craig Simpson makes their forward unit stronger, and he should clog up the

crease a la Andreychukfor the fire-city swords. Fuhr reported 25 pounds overweight (surprise!), so some younger goalies will have to play until he can fit into his pads. All they need is some experienced defence, and they’re laughing. Mogilny will miss the first four to six weeks with a broken leg.

4. Boston

I. New York Rangers - The injuries to Messier and Leetch last year were a killer to this team, and the health of both will see a resurgence of the Blueshirts. All positions are strong, but one wonders how new coach “Iron” Mike Keenan and Mark Messier will get along. Lots of miles left in Mike Gartner and super-pest Esa Tikkanen, with enough youth to provide the legs.

- Netminding with Casey is a question, as is the status of Cam Neely. They have very little depth at any position, even with promising youngsters Juneau and Heinze. Oates has no one to set up anymore, so he’ll have to score.

5. Montreal

2. New Jersey Devits - Quietly, management has put together a great team ready to explode, but the Devils are stitl very enigmatical. A return to form bv lohn MacLean. Bernie Nicholls, and %phane Richer -will see this team go far in the Atlantic. The defence is aging, but sophomore Scott Niedermayer should stabilize the blue-line.

6. Hartford

Whalers - Because of the strength of this division, Hartford and Ottawa might not see the playoffs for years. A few good kids, like Sanderson, Cassets, and Nylander are up front, but the defence is negligible. Rookies will be rushed into the lineup to try to stop the bleeding, like the Leafs used to do.

7. Ottawa Senators - On paper, they don’t look that bad, except in net. If wunderkinds Alexei Yashin and Alexandre Daigle are as good as they’re touted, this team could be interesting. Al Secord is trying a comeback with the Sens, and Olympic boatsman Hank Lammens is on board as a defenceman.

This is yet another exciting term in Campus Recreation with a number of classes underway now and the same enthusiastic “Pick it up” logo in the air. It is the second time for me working as a Publicity Coordinator for CR and I’m lookingforward to keeping you informed about many of the aspects of our programs offered, such as important dates, statistics, tournament results, special highlights and much much more.

3. New York Islanders - The onceproud Islanders are getting that pride back, thanks to Pierre Turgeon. However, the Isles’ success rests with Hextall, the only proven goalie, and the condition of fragile Pat Flatley and Steve Thomas. They overachieved tast year, but it bui,lt up their confidence.

- The best

Witness the first 20 minutes of the second frame. Western managed to cross into the Warrior half of the field twice and on those occasions only due to kicks. ‘i”9le Waterloo pack, far smaller but more mobile, tan the Western pack ragged. Rookie flankers Jarrod French and Milan Popovic were especially impressive, seeming always to find their way to the site of a breakdown in play first The Waterloo front-row also did a fine job of holding their own against far larger opponents and hooker Hoi Leung managed to win all but two of the put-ins from the set strums.

The Waterloo defence was outstanding with Steve Goodacre and Shane Pearson tackling especially effectively at flyhalf and first centre respectively. Fullback Daryl Purdy also had a very good game using his patented huge fake pass to make some Western backs look silty, and handling some nerve-wracking up-and-unders quite calmly. Eventually Western managed to creep back into the game and scored via two penalties to make the final score a close 13-7.

titled debut, I was hoping to hear more selections from the new release. Such songs as “Darkness And Doubt” and “Pull Me Down” would have been great to see live. Regardless, it was still a great performance. Hats off to the Skydiggers for the length of their show and the kick-ass encore. Great versions of Bad Company’s “Feel Like Makin’ Love” and the Elvis standard “Mystery Train.” It was one hell of a good night for music. It seems that aside from lead vocals and bopping around the stage, Andy Maize is also a bouncer at Fed. Midway through the last song of the night he joined the crowd to break up a fight. Call me silly, but isn’t that somebody else’s job?

I have to admit that I went into the that the Skydiggers at Fed Hall would be like seeing M&y Friivous headline at the CNE Grandstand. Having seen the Skydiggers at the smallest of small bars (The Maryhill Commercial Tavern) I thought that the Fed show would lack the enthusiasm found in a tiny, tightly packed, smoky countryside tavern. What could be better than seeing the Skydiggers perform while practically sitting on stage with Andy, Peter, Josh and company? I was delighted to find thatthe Skydiggers have ample enthusiasm to rock the cavernous depths of Fed Hall. It felt just like sitting in that smoky little bar of a

The band ran through a few mainstays of their live set that have just been recorded for their latest release just Over This Motintoin. Both “80 Odd Hours” and the title track were great to hear live even though they are not entirely new songs. A great slow song from the new release, “She Comes Into My Room,” was .given a great run-through. This song rivals the best of the slow numbers from their previous albums and hopefully will be their new release’s next single. Other highlights from the show included “Monday Morning,” “Accusa-

Last Saturday night turned out to be one of those nostalgic feel-good evenings. FiftyFour-Forty was honouring UW with a visit (their third KW concert in less than a year; they’d played Fed Hall and Stages last year).

Opening for the Skydiggers was our very own Waterloo storyteller Scott Deneau. His solo acoustic set drew mainly from his independently released CD Autumn Moon. If you enjoyed his performance I’d strongly recommend picking up his CD. Likened to Harry Chapin for his storytelling, Scott’s live performance highlighted his own unique storytellingabilities. In front of a receptive crowd Scott opened up with a superb version of “The Raven.” Scott’s enthusiastic set ran through a number of other tunes from his release including “Fists Of Rage,” ‘* I Write The Bible,” and my personal favourite *‘Bradley Bradey.” Scott also treated the crowd to an excellent new number entitled “Birds And Mountain.” it was a fine showing by one of K-W’s many talented musicians.

Available regular Ani Difranco The Mhng, University of Guelph September IS, 1993

by Greg Newton speciat to Imprint At odds against the offensive lighting, mediocre sound, and a battery of Budwieser neon at UofG’s Bullring, singer/songwriter Ani {AH-nee) Difranco thoroughly entertained and empowered a full house, leaving eighteen songs worth of personal politics, anecdotes and music in our heads. Sponsored by the womens task forceTakeBackThe NightJniabruptly started the night and caught me off balance with my favorite song, “Fourth ofjuly.” So abruptly, in fact, she left her dexterous Toronto side kick drummer Andy Stochansky still fiddling with his sticks. Playing the song with the verses in a different order, a pause in the middle to pick a hair off her breast, and with Andy joining in half way through, established the show to be in traditional Ani style: casual, unpretentious and entertaining. For those not familiar with Ani, she’s originally from Buffalo and now resides in New Yorker City. Now age 22, she’s about to release her fifth album. Through brilliantly written Iyrits, in a folky acoustic-punk music style, Ani challenges people on their assumptions at every level, lefties included. While her music is angry and confrontational in its honesty, her astage prescence is witty and charming. Soon into the set, Ani and Andy picked up West African style drums and thumped out a rythmical version of “Not So Soft,” one of her poetry pieces that’s become a tradition on each of her albums. Andy’s presence, while adding to the set musically, changed the flavour of her usually so!0 pzrforman& somehow distaniing the aidience from her intensely dynamic character, making it more impersonal. Still, it was fucking great. Under a glaring flood Iight, Ani appeased the crowds’ demand sto see her hair, and she revealed her lime and pea jello coloured mop. Exciting. She inte*acts a lot with her audience -- a bit of a rarity for most gigs -- by telling anecdotes and silly jokes, very apropriate to some of the goofy comments from the audience. Sniffling and feverish, she muttered later that she almost cancelledthe show, which would have been her first ever. It’s incredible what meaningful employment can do

here at prices to a person’s sense of duty! It is so refreshing to hear and feel politics in music that boot you in the ass, shut you up and empower you to speak out. Music that you know, somewhere, is helping a woman through her day -- precisly what Ani hopes for in her music. She has struck a powerful combination of music and lyrics that allow her to reach huge numbers of people in an undogmatic, strikingly honest way, expressing her challenges to people and institutions. Being signed on to her own label, Righteous Records, enables Ani to maintain total control over her production decisions, and she dosen’t compromise on the content of her material. Other record companies have offered her contracts, but unwill-

Fight,” my favourite song-- I was swingin’ in my chair and tappin’my shoes and grinning to the sound of her strong+ versatile voice and the dancing rythyms that she’s fingering too damn fast to see. Ani has clearly struck a powerful relationship between her and her guitar. Ignoring the huge and distracting “Available here at regular beer prices” sign over her head, she bangs out percussive pluckings and stummings, using the guitar for everything it’s worth. A guitar which, undoubtedly, has sold its soul .to the devil to become a permanent part of her. She even wears black tape around her fingers when she plays it I would too; her guitar bites! Soon they broke into new material, including a self-described “pissy little I hate everyone song,” similar in style to most of her material, but still enjoyable. Making a slightly stage-conscious someone-scr;ltching-their-fingernails-along-the-blackboard kind of face, she makes yet another tuning change, progressively working towards ever loopier tunings. In our discussion, Ani expressed concern over the trendiness of politics in music: the fashionably left, the hip-tobe-gay, the people “who don’t give deep thought to the other side of the tracks....” Ani talks about those who allude to just enough to pacify people, “like Michael Jackson’s ‘it doesn’t matter if you’re black or white.’ Yes, it does. Has he thought about this? Is there a verse to that song, or just a chorus?‘* Ani states simply that it’s just not in her to sell out, and I believe her. She’s had too many opportunities already. If Ani’s lyrics were any less striking and serious, it would be hard to catch their significance in light of her sillyness and highly entertaining chatter between songs, and soTtimes in the middle of them. I think my confusion after the show was appropriate: lofty rythms and rythms loitering in my head, an empowered feeling of musical and political inspiration, and a very conscious feeling of how fucked our species can be...particularily my gender.

ing to sell her body and her skills in the interest of a success, she’s refused. Her lyrics about real life -- sexual discrimination in the music industry, the power struggles in relationships, her bi-sexuality, a women’s reality of crossing a parking lot at night -- puts her, of course, in a controversial position. Ani’s excellent song “Blood In the Board (bored) Room” off her fourth album “Puddle Dive,” which describes her menstruating on a record company’s lovely chairs, rarely gets played. This puzzles her. Menstruation, it would appear, is the eighth unspeakable word of the mainstream media. In a conversation with Ani after the show, she explained that she’ll be releasing a compilation of her favorite tracks -- spiced up with Andy and cellos and things -- off her first two albums, (which presently contain only her and her guitar}, and take up twice as much room in her car as the new one witl. Her fifth album, probably entitled “Out of Range,” will hopefully be released in January. By the fourth song -- “Willing to

Another Imprint

near-bdusive

to appear with Redd Kross Federution Hall Tuesday, October 5th

by Dawn Brenner special to Xmpint On Tuesday, October 5th (not this coming Tuesday, but the following one), Waterloo’s Federation Hall will be home to one of the more exciting double-bills in recent memory as it plays host to Montreal’s Doughboys and Los Angeles’ Redd Kross. (Look for our feature on Redd Kross next week QS the lead-up slowly gathers momentum.) The Doughboys played on campus previously a couple of years ago and if that show or their newest record Crush are any insight, then their coming performance shapes up to be one of great anticipation. With that in mind, Imprint was blessed with the oppor-

ready tunity to interview none other than schizo Doughboys guitarist Jonathan Cummins himself. Formed back in I987 in Montreal by John Kastner (formerly of the Asexuals), the Doughboys debut found immediate fandom with a coterie of depressed Husker IX worshippers. Their depression stemmed from the fact that I 987 was the year the Huskers dissolved, but before any of their diehard followers had the chance to start slashing theSr wrists, out of nowhere came the Doughboys to carry the torch. To quote fans of both groups, the upstart Montrealers represented “hope.” Their first album rel+ses were all exhilarating pop-drenched Black Flag styled crushers, and all independently released: Whatever (1987), on Montreal’s now-defunct Pipeline label; Home Again ( I988), Happy Accidents ( I990), and the When Up Turns To Down EP ( I992), all on Los Angeles’ Restless Records. But the Doughboys rep grew

larger and larger more as a live act, as they’d regularly perform over 200 gigs a year. Last year the Doughboys -- with a now solidified line-up of guitarists/vocalists Cummins and Kastner, bassist Peter Arscnault, and drummer Paul Newman -- finally received a major league world-wide record deal with A&M. Their latest album, Crush, has been receiving a ton of praise and the album’s lead-single; “Shine,” is a Sloan-like pop gem that’s receiving lots of airplay. The first thing I wanted to get out of tl he way from Jonath: an “Widdalee” Cummi ns was just what, precise lY* the catalyst of his un Usual nickname is.

Being a rigorous touring band, I wanted to find out what the Doughboys have been up to between the release of Crush and the start of their latest tour which began last weekend in Montreal, Nobody fucks “We’ve just come back from the massive Reading Festival in England, actually,” he responds. “There were two stages...there was the gargantuan, humongous stage which was headlined by New Order, and there smaller stage. We was a were...(whispering) on the smaller stage. But we played with the best bands, Big Star, Swervedriver, Skyscraper... “This week we’re going to play the Halifax Pop Explosion which should be really great. We’re presently touring with Redd Kross and we’ll de play-

with the Doughboys.

pilation Something’s Gone WrongAgoin.) T-he Doughboys latest single, “Shine,” is a potential smashola and has a co-writer credit given to the British band Mega City Four’s guitarist Wiz. How’d he ever get involved? “Wiz is a really good friend of ours. We originally met him because he was a huge fan of the band from the first couple of times we went over to England. On one tour there he actually took some time off from his band so he could be our guitar technician. He really wanted to hang out with us and we really enjoy hanging out with him. “He and John (Kustier) are really tight friends, and he came over to Montreal for a while just to visit. He had the time of his life -- so much so that I thought he was going to move over here -- and he and john were just jamming in the kitchen one day and came up with these amazing songs.

“Shine” was one of them and we asked Wiz if we could use it and he said ‘of course.’ They wrote so many good ones that I think Mega City Four are even going to use one that both of them collaborated on for their next album. “Funny thing is, our next singleslash-video is going to be “Fix Me” which is another of Wiz’s contributions written with John and myself.” That new song, “Fix Me,” is one of many Cummins compositions that deals with one of his deeper and more prevalentthemes, that being alienation. Since he’s a native of Toronto, I wondered if his being a non-French speaking Anglophone in Montreal might’ve been a large factor in this theme. “Not at all,” Cummins answers directly. “It’s more of a generational thing, not being understood, things like that. It’s like those Gap ads or whatever, things like that which in no way reflect what life is like for me or most twenty year olds. I can’t really relate to those experiences where the TV set in no fashion mirrors real life, or just mirrors the lives of people that you’ve got absolutely nothing in common with.” How then does Cummins reconcile the heavy rotation that “Shine’s” been receiving on the nations so-called music station? “I don’t have much respect for videos. They’re just paid advertisements and not really entertainment or art as far as I’m concerned. They’re just commercials. But if they want to play our commercial over and over...well, great, so long as the song is representative of us, which I believe “Shine” is. I understand MuchMusic’s playing the shit out of it, so...1 mean, I’d much rather young people listen to us than, say, .38 Special or something.” I’ll raise a toast to that. So in closing, what else’s on the horizon? “We’re scheduled to be on the Ralph Benmurgai show. It should be really funny.” Good grief. Best that you catch ‘em at Fed first, to find out what a Doughboys show is really like.

First off, let’s understand that Rymes With Orange are showmen; they put on an energetic show and expect the audience to return the favour. Well, as RWO bounced, climbed, and stammered through the opening songs of their Wednesday night set, it seemed as if the audience wasn’t really there. And they weren’t They were quite obliviously there to

RWO did, at times, evoke within me images of a grunged out version of early REM, with their crashing harmonies bolstering jangling wah guitar. Most times, though, they evoke a strong response with their quirky activity (climbing everything there is to climb within reach of the stage) and mix of standard pop bridges and breaks, musical nips and tucks which held together their in-song diversity. But the thing is, they do it well. They do it all well. They’ve been compared to fellow port city artists Sloan (okay, just because RWO is from Vancouver and Sloan from Halifax..) with regards

to their sound and growing popularity, but I think a Spinal Tap comparison is more appropriate. Not only are RWO a crowd pleasing bunch ofguys, but they can also put on a classy show. With the perfect mixture of rock cockiness and self irony, RWO lived out their show as a spectacle to be experienced, even managing to induce the crowd into singing out a chorus they’d likely never heard before and probably had no idea what they should be actualy singing. And the crowd did respond in the end. They did realize the opportunity they had to enjoy a band on the verge ofgrowing into a national presence. By the time RWO launched in their final, most popular song, “Itchycoo park,” (with a bit of “Marvin” thrown in) they managed to bring the crowd on board and milked the opportunity to the extreme. With the longest, brightest final cord/light show since Triumph last played the Gardens, RWO left the stage with a vengeance. Perhaps they knew that their next gig in KW would bring them in as headliners, as the best thing to come out of western Canada since the Guess Who (or Bryan Adams but not Art Bergman, he’s not big enough). Perhaps they didn’t. But they sure made it seem that way, which is half the trick in the entertainment industry. Not only is RWO musically adept and inspiring, but they can put on a show, which is more than can be said for many an aspiring new band.

into a coma, the music stops and in bounce staccato guitars and O’Riordan’s mystifying chants. I could not make it to Kingswood this summer to see them live. They were scheduled to play our very own Fed Hall (supporting The The), but seems money has had the upper hand lately. First The The ditched us for loaded Depeche Mode. And ‘ergo the Berries. Nowthe Berries have dumped the Suede-heads, Oct. 19, for daddy big bucks Duran Duran. But hey, everyone eise is doing it, so why can’t they?

Oh, this band is a real gem! As far as I’m concerned, the Cranberries are one of the best new bands this year. Delores O’Riordan and Noel Hogan handle most of the music and song writing, as well as the singing. Noel’s backing vocals fade in and out around Delores’ lead, adding depth to the sound. Delores warbles and croons like Lisa, the lead singer from Dead Can Dance; and wails and whispers like Sinead, from the C&u era. What a coincidence, considering both of them are from Ireland. Mike Hogan is the bassist, and Fergal Lawlor plays drums and percussion. If you’re a CFNY listener, I’m sure you’ve already heard the Cranberries’ first two singles, the sorrowful Smithslike “Dreams,” and the staccato “Linger.” Musically the album is full of rich female vocals, violins, jangly guitars, and foreboding basslines. Another excellent track is “Sunday”. This one starts off slow, almost like a lullaby. just as you become lulled

The Family Cat have been around for a bit longer than anyone really suspects they have. This I know, because 1 actually first read about them in the NME in the same article which talked about another up-and-coming band called the Stone Roses. However, the Family Cat have outdone the Stone Roses by; A) Touring steadily for the past three years, including two stints at Glastonbury. B) Being more prolific than the Roses. Not much more prolific, however, because this release, called Furthest From the Sun, only marks the band’s second full length album. To be fair, though, in the past while they have been beset with problems with regards to proper conduct towards camera wielding members of the press (ie; that, although you did ask them not to take your picture, and they still did, it’s not really grounds for putting the boot in.) However all of the storm clouds have hopefully gone away, and the Family Cat can “Steamroller” right over us with their own particular brand of pulsating grinding art-rock. This is impressive in an age when the very word art-rock is grounds for breaking vinyl. When 1say art-rock, I don’t mean Brian Eno, Yes, or even Roxy Music. I mean a certain kind of hard rock that does not compromise on it’s approach to heavy Bolan riffing, but with intelligence, and flair, and more than a

modicum of humour. The lyrics are impressive too, but like Bob Dylan, if I were to quote them out of context, they would flounder like a fish out of water. So I’ll leave them be, .and let you discover that squashed under the heavy rolling steel of Steamroller, there lies a great paranoid set of words. Granted the album is a little uneven, veering to close to the edge of the fresh asphalt, towards pretentiousness on the song “Frog One,” and towards banal rock stupidity on a few others However, it’s still a better album than many which one could hear, and just for “Steamroller” alone, one might want to buy furthest From the Sun.

She was a violinist for a pop rocker turned folk rocker; he was the leader of an obscure Canadian pop band: together they’ve created and produced a fine little album of minimalist countryfolk-rock-pop. She is Lisa German0 and this is her first solo album, Happiness. And the title, when said with a tinge of irony and a lisp of optimism, says it all. “Happiness is like tv/on or off it’s up to me,” German0 sings, her voice airy as a chinook in March, and warm too. While her lyrics border between terse and rambling, the album holds together well enough to warrant a full listen before replaying the best tracks. Cut down to size, unlike many other new acts these days, Germano’s band sports the traditionalguitars-bassdrums and picks up a violin, mandolin, or accordion for effect, but that’s all. Highlighting the album is the track you might have heard on CFNY a few weeks ago; “You -make me want to wear dresses” comes from the Jane Sibery school of angstful and awkward, yet fresh and enjoyable singing. Alongside grinding violin, Germane’s voice works to calm and assure us into believing her desire to become more feminine in this postfeminist age. Perhaps fittingly, the least listenable track on Happiness could be interpreted as a feminist’s pop standard. Yes, “These boots are made for walkin’,” walks all over -Germane’s otherwise respectable album. Now it may be possible to find a decent version of this song somewhere in the world, but German0 drones out the chorus and stomps through the verses to such an extent that most all of the 4 minutes and 37 seconds is entirely dismal. Too bad for her, and us. This aside, Happiness is actually a happy sonic experience. Produced by

ex-Boy’s Brigade frontman turned renowned producer, Matcolm Burn, happiness satiates our need for melody, relaxation, and original sounds. German0 and Burn have created

ing seems an interesting, though limited endeavour. However, the full breadth of the music, the originality and wit become clear after a few careful listenings. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said of The Infotainment Scan. Although stylisticly similar to Code: Selfish, it lacks the energy and variety of its predecessor. The music is still as uncompromising as ever, the only problem is that the avenue they’re exploring this time seems to be a bit of a dead end. Hearing this Fall album is especially interesting in light of the rise of Pavement on this side of the Atlantic. Many critics have made the Fall/Pavement connection, which is not altogether irrelevant. The same experimentation, kinda-make-sense-lyricsand completely irreverent meld of sounds definitely connect the two. Although not a bad place to start, Pavement definitely have staked a musical claim independent of the Fall. Pavement are just one example of how the Fall remain a relevant mbsical force. Unfortunately,“The Infotainment Scan” isn’t a strong enough album to demonstrate that.

knew who Don Ross was. But of those lucky few who did, there was the unanimous cry that Don Ross is a guitar god! And it is true. The title of this album is no fluke, it sounds in most of the songs that he does play with three hands. The one song on the album that would make any self-righteous guitarist cry is “Hoover the Musical Dog” it is entirely instrumental, and in it he weaves four different melodies together that sounds as if there are two or three people playing the piece. Ross, however plays it entirely on his own. His style could be described as folk, but thatwould give an

There’s a couple bands on this thingthat I don’tcarefor, butsharkbait’s “Pissed” and Sugarsmack’s “Pissed Off’ are amazing, and Pigface’s live recording of “Suck” is surprisingly crisp. My lack of familiarity with many of the bands trigger urges to make references to other more well-known bands, such as “The Energy of Big Black” or “Primus-like guitar work” in order to describe their efforts. Compilations released by fiercely independent record labels such as this are usually the best kind because they’re trying to give all their artists some exposure. The other kind of compil&ion is the massmarketing of dance mix schlock, an evil virus that must be exterminated. A good all-round effort was put into this, and it shows. And that’s really all there is to say.

Their English accents scream out, and these Londoners scream louder adding their paraphernalia to the already over crowded 20th century.

Ttre cover art of this, the latest album from Kinky Machine, consists of a painted pig. It’s title is reminiscent of Jackson Pollock, and Kinky Machine take special care to thank Andy Warhol for the inspiration. An attraction to Modern Art perhaps? Listening to the album I’d say, without a doubt, a resounding YES. Kinky Machine are fresh, young and bold. And yes -- like the art they seek to praise -- they are pretentious. The group photo on the album sleeve attests to this. Kinky Machine want to tell you what they think of modern life: of women and their vanity in “Glittering Bullets,” (“So proud of your transparent skin / Cracked porcelin you broke everything”); of the capitalist power houses who control our money and our world in “Going Out With God”, (“He’s got his fingers in everything I He built the world from dust”); and about

of on the more technical aspects of his music as in “Kehewin”, and at other times more on the lyrics, and he uses relatively simpler rhythms like in his cover of Leo Kottke’s “Everybody Lies”. Don Ross does not have a distinct style, the only linking Factor between each of his songs is his use of acoustic guitar. His inspirations come from his travels to smalt towns across the country, or songs like “Sugar” and “A Child Must Grow” stem from his ties to the Canadian native community through his Micmac ancestory. Ross has some Celtic influences that surface in “Big Buck”, a piece he wrote for a score for a theatre production, and he has previously recorded and performed Celtic style music with his wife. Don Ross is someone you might have seen performing in schools, or you may have heard him on the CBC, but besides that, unless you live in nowheresville you might never get to see this native Torontonian perform due to his desire to keep a low profile. With his destinct almost indescribable style, it is almost easier to state what he is not. By no means is he hard, rude, or obnoxious. So if your preferece swings towards that taste, Don Ross is not for you. if what you enjoy is something that is a combination of folk, jazz, and Celtic music, then welcome to Don Ross’ world.

If you’ve seen those US-FM television commercials which detail the evolution of popular music, you’ve probably had a difficult time preventing yourselffrom continual!yvomiting. For the benefit of those of you who haven’t, they reckon that Elvis propelled the ‘SO’s, the Beatles owned the ‘60’s, Led Zeppelin the ‘70’s, and now the socalled “New Country Music,” (featuring the likes of Billy Ray Cyrus ?!?), is apparently ruling the ‘90’s. Besides begging the question of what ever happened to the ‘80’s, CISSFM’s whole convoluted premise is founded on some very nebulous assumptions. Okay, so lots of middleclass, white-bread non-record buyers all so cowered in fear of rap music that they ran out and made Garth Brooks a pop superstar. So what. These days, paranoia just doesn’t cut it as far as musical revolutions go. Country’s godfather, the late, great Hank Williams on the other hand, was the genuine article. Perhaps the greatest songwriter in the history of recorded American music, Williams was truly on the cutting edge, the jimi Hen&ix of his day, and the signpost without whom Presley, Holly, Dylan and much of today’s popular music -whether country or rock -- just wouldn’t be the same,

Polygram’s new Williams doubleCD release, the Health & Happiness Shows, is previously unreleased material from I949 which should be ofgreat interest to any Hank fanatic. The two discs features 8 twelve-minute syndicated radio shows Williams regularly performed on his rise to the top, plus a spanking little informative CD booklet. As far as musical documents go, the whole package is an invaluable goldmine. Each show commences with “Happy Rovin’ Cowboy” (the show’s theme-song), features a pitch from the show’s sponsor (a manufacturer of moonshine snake-oil, hence the “Health & Happiness” moniker), and concludes every time with “Sally Goodin’.” In between, Hank and the Drifting Cowboys play cooking live versions of many of his standards as well as more obscure material, and it’s all interspersed with Hank’s drawling Southern introductions. The numbers themselves range from the typical weepers (“Lovesick Blues, ” “I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry,” etc.), rave-ups (“Pan American,” etc.), and soulful spirituals (“Prodigal Son,” “I Saw The Light,” etc.). Nobody conveys the vast breadth of human emotions better than Hank Williams. The only complaint, and it’s a really minor quibble, would be on some of the early shows where Hank’s irascible wife Audrey accompanies him on vocal harmony. Truth is, her talent is marginal at best and all the more negligible in the company of a genius. Nevertheless, the whole album is tremendous. For those who have yet to be graced by the light of Hank Williams though, I’d suggest first settling on Polygram’s triple CD box-set The Original Singles ColleaionJlus. Beyond doubt, it’s one of the greatest artist retrospectives in the history of recorded music and a bargain at any price, so seek it out!!

“Anger is a very honest human emotion and if you can channel it into music, so much the better.” That quote, which is in the liner notes of this album, is a description of the song “Screaming For Vengeance” by long time Judas Priest lead vocalist Rob Halford. More appropriately, the quote could be the secret behind the phenomenal international success of the band. Judas Priest, the leather-studded juggernaut that progressed heavy metal to new limits in the late ‘70’s and early ‘80’s, commemorates their 20 years of existence with this teeming compilation Metul Works. The two-CD, 32-track set spans a great deal of the Priest discography, but wasn’t compiled as a greatest hits package. It is touted as a collection of hits, classics, and the band’s persona! favourites. Metal Works is comprised of pickings from earlier efforts and recent projects while the lion’s share of tracks were taken from the Judas Priest titans Hell Bent For leather, bitish Steel, Screaming For Vengeance, and Defi’enders Of The Faith. Early selections include the live version of “Victim of Changes”, the ferocious “Dissident Aggressor,” and the throat-ripping “Exciter”. Three tracks were taken from the 1978 LP HeI\ Bent For Leather: “Delivering The Goods,” “Before The Dawn,” and the title track, which became the customary show opener at Priest concerts with Halford entering center stage on his giant Harley Davidson. The British Steel (1980) cuts are “Metal Gods,” “The Rage,” and Priest classics “Breaking The Law,” and “Living After Midnight.” Screaming For vengeonce has the most tracks on the compilation, the six metal gems “B Ioodstone, ” “The Hellion,” “Electric Eye, ” “Devil’s Child,” “Screaming For

Vengeance,” and everyone’s favourite “‘You’ve Got Another Thing Coming.” Other highlights on MetuI Works include “Turbo Lover” from the album Turbo, “Heading Out To The Highway” from the live LP Priest ... Live!, “Ram It Down” and “Blood Red Skies” from the hardcore effort Ram It Down, and from their last album Painkiller, released in 1990, “Metal Meltdown,” “Night Crawler,” and the title track. An unforgivable oversight on the band’s part is the absence of “Love

Zhang Yimou seems to be the Chinese director getting all the press recently at a time where there is a lot more emphasis on Chinese cinema, ap well as Western films set in Asia or on Asian themes, like the Lover, Indochine, or now David Chronenberg’s M. terfry. In his first three films released in

Sexual politics: what newcomers need to know. Let’s face it, we are all newcomers, especially to a one-man cabaret performance like Norman Nawrocki’s “I Don’t Understand Women!“. In one hour, the audience is given a cash course in communication, comprehension, self-assertion, self and partner-protection, and survival in the ‘90’s. The show, designed to open up doors to sexuality, is geared toward anyone who wilt listen, take in the information, and use it. ’ Employing voices and costume changes, visual aids, slapstick, stereotypes, and testimonials, Norman Nawrocki portrays fourteen real and cartoon-like characters--from ‘sex experts’ to ‘well-know campus studs’--
