ohs are a lot less secure for Alberta’s university professors. The Alberta provincial government has drafted a new policy paper which orders that province’s universities to begin dismantling the tenure system. Alberta is the first province to make such a move, according to the Canadian Association of Universities and Colleges. Tenure is a system that basically guarantees professors’ jobs. Once offered tenure by a university, it is almost impossible to be fired. This is seen by some as essential for professors to have academic freedom, so that they may be free to pursue controversial topics and not have to fear for their jobs. Under the new policy, universities have been ordered to renegotiate their collective agreements. The rlew agreements must give universities the ability to lay off professors if programs are chopped or if the university faces financial difficulties. Failure to create new agreements could result in government intervention, forcing the universities to act and possibly even telling them which programs to eliminate. Opponents, like Alberta Liberal advanced education critic Don Massey, are denouncing the policy as a serious threat to academic freedom and professors’ rights to freedom of speech. These opponents accuse Premier Ralph Klein’s Conservative government of having an anti-intellectual agenda. “The new right always mistrusts intellectuals,” Massey told T/te Globe & Mail’s Alberta Bureau. “It’s Ronald Reagan, George Bush and Barry Goldwater right here in Alberta.” Those who support the government policy say that the threat to academic freedom has been exaggerated. David Brown, senior policy analyst of the C.D. Howe Institute believes that the ability to lay off professors will make universities more flexible and adaptable to change. He also feels that theelimination of tenure may produce a more energetic work force in universities. Professors will not be the only ones to feel the sting of the new policy, however. Students are going to face a steep increase in tuition fees. The cap on tuition fees, set in 1989 at 12 per cent of institutions’ operating budgets, is being lifted to 20 per cent. That number will reach 30 per cent by the year 2000. International students will be particularfy hard hit. Under the policy, they will have to pay twice the fees paid by Canadian students, Originally, the government had aimed to make international students carry the full financial burden
of their education, They backed down in the face of intense opposition and accusations of xenopho-
for professors includes no student input and as such, may be badly lacking in any pertinent critique of teaching ability, an essential part of a professors job. Some opponents of letting students in on the process say that undergraduate students are not qualified to judge a professors research, and Codrington admits this. However, who except students is really qualified to judge a professors teaching skills, he asks.

Tenure is not currently under review by the province of Ontario. It is, however, under review right here at the University of Waterloo. Federation of Students President Steve Codrington and a number of grad students want to see some changes, and the sooner the better. Currently, the hiring process

Codrington wanted to make it clear that by talking with Axworthy, he and the other OUSA delegates were not condoning his proposals. He felt that neglecting to do so would be failing in his duties to the students. “We’ve got a responsibility to become involved.” The federal government is not planning on completely abandoning students. They are currently considering federally funded income-cent i ngent repayment loans but have not made any definite decisions about the form they will take. “There are many ways to arrange the details of such an approach.” The Federation of students is currently examining the issue. “We’ll be ready with our model sometime in November,” said Codrington. The issue of loans is very complicated, as if the government allows students to accrue too much debt, it may actually be more ex-

pensive to the government than the present system of cash transfer. It is possible that if students run up debt in the $20-30,000 range, the interest and the rate of default will be high enough to cause backfiring to occur. Another issue that requires close examination is how the provinces are spending the money they are currently receiving. There is definitely a tendency for the federal government to try and pass the blame to the provinces, but Codrington agrees “a lot ofthe transfer money is nor being spent on education.” Codrington warned that we have to be especially aware of how the provinces are spending when the federal cuts come down, in case the province then tries to take more out of its slimming education budget and blame it on the federal government. Overall, Codrington had good feeling about discussing the issue face to face with Axworthy. “It was very worthwhile.”

he struggle to preserve Clayoquot Sound, our last remaining tract of in tact temperate rainforest, has begun to symbolize fears worldwide about wildlife extinction and hopes to continue fragile ecosystems. On November 6, Valerie Langer and Garth Lcnz from the Friends of Clayoquot Sound in British Columbia will be presenting a slide show in Kitchener on the recent developments in the fight to save our rainforest. The presentation will take place at 3 o’clock p.m. at the Adult Recreation Centre, on the corner of Allen and King St. Clayoquot Sound on Vancouver Island is one of the largest remaining tracts of temperate rainforest in the world and the site of the largest act of civil disobedience in Canada’s history. The Friends of Clayoquot Sound have been actively working on preserving the 26,000 hectares of islands, valleys and inlets, which are the homes to numerous endangered species, for the past fifteen years. Clayoquot Sound contains trees up to 1500 years old and holds more biomass than any other ecosystem in the world. Presently, Clayoquot Sound is being clear cut by multiBecause no national logging companies. trees are left standing in a clear cut, the forests become fragmented, destroying bio-diversity, fish habitats and soil. Also, because this is an unsustainable and heavily mechanized method, clear cutting reduces forestry jobs and hurts our economy. In April of 1993, the British Columbia provincial government passed the decision to allow logging in 74 percent of the ancient forest. This decision followed shortly after the NDP government in B.C. invested $50 million in MacMillan Bloedel, the mainrnultinational logging company in Clayoquot Sound. The decision spurred action from many organizations world-wide, as well as mass civil disobedience in the Sound. People were charged up to $3000 for blocking roads and

protesting logging companies in the Sound. Over 8OOpeople were arrested in the Kennedy Bridge Blockade last summer, the largest blockade in Canadian history. Many organizations have been hard at work to inform the public of the effects of clear cutting and the critical situation on the West coast. However, it is hard for them to compete with the $9 million P campaigns finded by the provincial and federal govemments for the companies. The Western Canada Wilderness Committee (WCWC) has been active for the past two summers building witness trails on Vancouver Island in order to increase tourism and accessibility to the area. Last fall, the WCWC went on tour throughout Canada with a stump from a clear cut in Clayoquot Sound to raise public awareness.

spring, with the objective of creating an international boycott on clear cut Canadian wood. Scott Paper is among the companies that have recently been boycotting MacMillan Bloedel for their illegal and unsustainable logging practices. Kimberley-Clark UK cancelled their contract MacMillan with Bloedel as well last March. MacMillan Bloedel has been charged on over fifty lawsuits for illegal logging, including one account last April. Two weeks after the illegal cutting in Clayoquot Sound a demonstration broke out in Austria. MacMillan Bloedel has been receiving negative press in the United States as well, and many American paper companies are now stating their preference for non-clear cut wood. Protests have spread throughout Canada, including one at speaker’s corner in Kitchener last fall. Although national and international pressure is strong, the NDP government in British

The Mexican Election of the Chiapas
in the wake
Uprising.
T
he recent Mexican elections, of August 2 1, have yielded a new president who will not take office until December. This successor will fmd himself facing an increasingly turbulent and restless Mexico, in which uprisings such as the one which occurred in Chiapas will be quite common. What is the reason for this instability, and what should the newly elected president do to try and quash it? One of the greatest dangers in Mexican authority is that the president has too much power, and can become in danger of being out of touch with his constituents. This is certainly what happened in the case of Carlos Salinas de Gortari, who was the previous president of the country. The only thing that has saved Mexico from the economic and political crises which have plagued
other Central American countries is the fact that most of the people high up in the Mexican government were foreign educated, and therefore have the business acumen to deal on an international level.
The ruling party in Mexico is the Institutional Revolutionary Party power
(PRI), which has been in since 1928. Within the party itself there have been many acts of dissent, and in March, presidential candidate Luis Donald0 Colosio was murdered. The way the party remains strong is through the use by the foreign educated politicians oftheirpolitical connections to other countries to create things like the NAFTA agreement, which benefitted Mexico greatly. With money, the PRI is able to buy consent of industry, and subsequently of the individual population. Still, they only won 50.4 percent of the votes in the 1988 election, andmany people think that this was only achieved through electoral fraud. What this has to do with the Chiapas uprising is that the Chiapas uprising of last January is sympto-
9
matic of the mood of those individuals in Mexico who feel marginalized. No matter who is elected into office in Mexico, it seems, the poverty cycle of those living in rural areas, and even in Mexico city itself, does not change. Every so often, this unrest and dissent reaches a breaking point and an uprising occurs. The PRThas the ability simply to buy off whoever it is who is rebelling. They do this with grants and concessions to the industries who are being affected. These industries then aid in the quashing of the rebellion, and the people quickly lose solidarity and go back to their usual cycle of pov-
erty.

Although this Mexican election was thought important in the wake of the Chiapas uprising, through a view of history we can see that nothing much has really

STUDENT VILLAGE ACCOMMODATION Live on campus during the winter or spring tern7 ...
Awey Peters Sr. Ufflcer of Internal Affairs
W
e’d like to give you a financial update this week, as promised during Christine Dewhurst’s election campaign last February. Here’s where the money matters stand as of August 3 1, 1994, according to the accounting wizardry of our VP Operations and Finance. The Feds are a non-profit corporation. The annual Budget of the Federation of Students is balanced so that Fed fees paid by students each term tind the Student Government expenses, and the profits made by our businesses cover their own expenses,and then supplement student government activities. Despite the fact decreased traf-
fic flow in the Campus Centre has reduced sales in all businesses, we’re in decent shape. Check out thesenumbers from the Spring term: The Used Book Store made $20,025 over the summer, compared to $2 1,127 in the same time last year. Even in its temporary location, the UBS is still a booming business. Plans for the future include updated equipment to provide more efficient service, as well as the continuation of exporting books through a U.S. company. Nebraska Book Co. buys texts that may not be used here at UW, but are good elsewhere in North America. That means the UBS will still buy your old texts even if a UW prof won’t use them. The Campus Shop lost $13,839, compared to a loss of $ I6,6 17 last year. There’s hope that the new location in the Student Centre will help Campus Shop sales -- as well as a reminder to students that the Campus Shop in the CC is a Federation business, unlike the
Uw store down at South Campus
Hall. In the new building, the Campus Shop will be expanding in the area of group
orders,
will offer
a
greater selection of casual wear, and will have a new pricing strategy to benefit UW students. Fed Hall lost $99,302 over the summer term, compared to a loss of $7 1,153 last year. This is due in part to having fewer students on campus this past summer, and the fact that new night clubs in Kitchener are posing stiff competition for Fed Hall. Not to worry though, losing cash over the summer is standard fare for Fed, since we make it back over the rest of the year. The Music Source lost $5,793 by the end of August, compared to a loss last year of $5,207. Other music stores in town pose stiff competition for the Music Source. In the newly renovated Student Centre, the Music Source will be included in our brand new convenience store. The focus of the Music Source will be on custom orders with a 2 day turnaround, as well as used CDs, The new convenience store will mean one-stop shopping for pop, juice, chocolate bars and snacks, newspapers, magazines, stationery, greeting cards, dry goods and a Post Office. The Bombshelter lost $9,449, whereas last year the Bomber made $11,650 over the summer. With the expanded patio, and the new quiet pub planned for the Student Centre, the Bomber should be in fine shape for the Spring. The Graphix Factory lost $11,718 compared to a loss of $8,300

L
ast week, Ralph Klein, the Conservative premier of Alberta took a bold step in initiating a plan to remove one of the most hallowed (hollowed?) institutions of universities - tenure. For years, tenure has been revered as a protector of academic freedom. The most popular line of reasoning argues that giving a professor a permanent job, with only a very slim chance of being removed from that job, allows said professor to pursue
research without fear of being told to stop for what we may term “political reasons.” Thus, the professor can pursue an inquiry with which her or his superiors don’t agree, without
I’ear of reprisal,
The problem, of course, is that some professors can also use tenure as an opportunity to slack off without being held accountable for their unproductiveness. Eliminating tenure, however, would not mean an end to academic freedom. If anything, it would eliminate the problem of lazy professors with few bad side effects. Allow me to explain. At a university where tenure was abolished, and a professor was slacking off, the elimination of tenure would allow the university to fire him or her, Great.
However, what if that professor was fired for political reasons? Well, first let us estiblish that such an act would not go unnoticed. As Rushton has demonstrated, the public at large rarely remains unaware of the controversial work that professors conduct. Even ifthe work wasn’t asinteresting as Rushton’s, at the very least the academic community would be well aware of an incident where a professor was let go for reasons unrelated to the research itself. If the professor truly thinks he or she was dismissed unfairly, they’re hardly going to let it pass without making a fuss about it. Now if this happens, two events will occur. First of all, a university that investigates the incident fessor’s research
and feels that the pro-
was valid and was fired unfairly will snatch up the professor. Universities generally do like to have clever professors. Second of all, the academic community both inside and out of the offending university will become aware that this is not a university to try and get ajob at. Why work at a place where one’s research is subject to the whims of one’s superiors? These two events will conspire to create a situation where the university will either correct the error of its ways to save its reputation and keep attracting professors, or suffer the judgement of students and other universities and end up severely damaging its reputation. In the long run, the university wili completely 1oseits credibility if it chooses this last course of action. Because universities act as self-interestedagents in this case,market forces will conspire to ensure that academic freedom . will be respected whether tenure,is there to institutionalize it or not. I am we11 aware
that this brief
and
analysis doesn’t do justice to the debate; however, I think it’s clear that it’s time to rethink tenure. It may well turn out that tenure is an idea whose time crude whole
has passed.

Tuition doesn’t pay for research To the Editor, The article by Tan Lim (“Tuition Fees: What Are Students Paying For?“, October 14,1994) questions the extent that tuition contributes to the cost of research at the University of Waterloo. The basic belief is that tuition not only covers the direct costs of teaching but also some of the hidden costs of research and that if this is not true now, it will be true if tuition is doubled. I think this is an appropriate question for discussion, and it is difficult to argue that students should not be informed of how tuition is being used. However, there are additional facts that are relevant to this discussion and a few statements that need to be corrected. The teaching loads in the Dcpartment of Physics as stated are not correct. The actual load varies from three to five courses per year per faculty member depending on additional duties (research and administration). No one teaches just “2 courses and a laboratory.” These loads involve teaching a very large number of students because of the large average class size of first and second year courses. In the article, the salaries of regular faculty are compared to those of sessionals; however, faculty members have many other duties besides teaching and research that are not shared by sessionals, who admittedly are poorly paid. These include curriculum design and course preparation, graduate supervision, supervision of undergraduate research projects, design
became.
of undergraduate laboratory experiments, student counselling, departmental administration, etc. Extensive use of sessionals, even if enough could be found, would result in an institution much more like 2 high school with a greatly curtailed graduate program and much less student-faculty contact. In addition, some research is a necessary part of undergraduate teaching since it is a major impetus for faculty to remain current and up-to-date in their teaching. It is very difficult to accurately separate the cost of teaching from that of research.A different approach is to compare tuition at private universities and colleges in the United States. Public institutions are subsidised as are all universities here. Most small, private colleges conduct no serious research, so all the costs should be associated with teaching. At major research universities, the university pays for only that part of each faculty member’s salary, usually 75% but even less at many schools, that is viewed as being associated with teaching. The remainder is covered from research grants. In addition, the universities collect overhead charges ofapproximately 50% on all research grants and contracts. Tuition at private schools, which should more accurately reflect the actual cost of teaching, is still $12,000-$18,000 per year. In addition, endowments, several of which are in excess of one billion dollars, are a major source of revenue for private institutions. I think that it would be a disaster for Canada if tuition is ever raised to the level that it fully covers all the expenses of teaching. Good arguments can be made that society benefits when everyone can afford a university education, but

tuition would have to increase several-fold before it pays for research. James Chair

Weird walk through the park Tu the Editor, It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon; leaves were scattered all over the grass as children ran gaily through them, creating a whirlwind of colour as sounds of their laughter soared through the air. However, as I was walking along over the golden carpet of leaves, all I could feel was the sad, heavy feeling in my heart. It was as if all the beauty around me was filtered away by my sadness, and everything that reached my eyes seemed cold and grey. How different everything seemed from just a few hours before. I had been taking a walk with my boyfriend on the very same path when we came across this man, his arms heavily laden with groceries. He was barely able to take a few steps without having to lay down his bags to take a rest. Seeing his difficulty, my boyfriend and I offered to help him carry his bags. As we were walking with him towards his home at the other end of the park, I noticed that he started to feel somewhat uneasy and as soon as we reached his home, he left us in a great hurry. I was puzzled; I could not understand why he seemed so anxious to get away from us. It was only later that I realised what was making him so uncomfortable: fear. Fear of two students enjoying a Saturday afternoon stroll in the park. I do not blame the man for his trepidation; from all the horror stories and negative images that we are bombarded with, the man had every reason to be afraid. Everyday, the media hurls out stories of violence, of racism, of innocent vic-

tims terrorised by crime. These are the images that stick to our minds, casting shadows over any displays of love, compassion and kindness that we may come upon. I believe the time has come for each of us to reach into ourselves, and to examine the wall of suspicion and distrust that has been built. Only once we have learned to see past this barrier may we be able to open up our view of the world and see the hope and promise that exists around us. And maybe then we will be able to truly appreciate a beautiful autumn walk in the park. Camline

To the Editur, On Tuesday, October 25th, the Federation of Students attempted to hold the Annual General Meeting for the corporation. To meet quorum, there must be 50 undergraduate students in attendance. One might think that with anundergraduate pop\llation of 16,000 it would not be c’ifficult to reach this level of participation. The Federation of Students understands that those we represent are very busy with mid-terms, however, we have a certain mand.lte that must be recognized. Democracy is an active process. We are accountable to you and we want you to keep us in check. The student population voted for us and as a result we work for and with you. We need to know what you want but unless you go to such meetings we have little indication of what you think of our performance. Please take the time to care where your money is going. The Annual General Meeting has been rescheduled for Wednesday November Zndat 7:OOp.m. in the Great Hall of the Campus Centre. Let’s make this thing work!

“WE (GOD) created man from a quintcssence (gentle extraction) of clay; *** WE then placed him as a drop (of sperm) in a place ofrest firmly fixed (i.e. the womb); *** Then WE have fashioned the drop into something which clings (leech-like); then of that thing which clings WE fashioned a chewed lump (of flesh); then WE made out of that chewed lump bones (skeleton) and clothed the bones with (intact) flesh; then WE caused him to grow and come into being and attain the defjnitive (human) form. Blessed be ALLAH (tiOD) The Best to create!” - Qur’anic verses [23: 12- 141 by Sameh E. Rehan special to Imprint From the beginning of humankind GOD sent Prophets to convey HIS REVELATlON and to invite people to the path of TRUE PEACE and OBEDIENCE to ONE TRUE GOD. This is Islam. This message was conveyed to successive generations of humans through different Prophets, all inviting humankind to the same path. However, all earlier messages or rcvelations from GOD were distorted by people of later generations. As a result, pure revelation from GOD was polluted with myths, superstitions, idol worship, and irrational philosophical ideologies. Human history is a chronicle of human’s drift between light and darkness, but GOD out of HIS Abundant Love for humankind has not forsaken us. When humankind was in the depths of the Dark Ages, GOD sent HIS final Messengcr, Prophet Muhammad (may peace and blessings of GOD be upon Him) to redeem humanity. The revelation to Prophet
Muhammad, The Qur’an, represents the ultimate and permanent source of guidance for humankind. The foregoing research into the correlation between the Qur’an and Modern Science has yielded astonishing results. In short, there is a perfect agreement between the statements in the Qur’an reported over 1400 years ago and present day scientific facts. It then becomes clear to all that the Messenger who came with these facts brought to us the knowledge from GOD. The Qur’an mentions precise mechanisms and describes clearly-defined stages in human reproduction, without providing a single statement marred by inaccuracy. Everything in the Qur’an is explained in simple terms which arc easily understandable to humans and in strict accordance with what was to be discovered much later on! Tn a video-taped lecture that was held at the University of Toronto few years ago, three non-Muslim professors of Anatomy talked (after many years of careful studies) about Embryology in the Qur’an. These Professors were Dr. M. Johnson @he Chair ofthe Anatomy Dept., Memorial College, Philadelphia), Dr. T. Persaud (the Chair of the Anatomy Dept., U. of Manitoba), and Dr. K. Moore (the Associate Dean of Basic Sciences, Faculty of Medicine, U. of Toronto). The non-Muslim Professors admitted that the sequential order and the precisely defined description of the various stages of human development, mentioned in the Qur’an, are in full agreement with contemporary embryological observations.

Imprint,
by Martin Settle special to Imprint I can’t recall the exact wording ofthe sign -- it said something to the effect of “put in any Del Monte or Aylmer brands and Nabisco will match your donation to the Waterloo Regional Food Bank.” I’m sure that the Food Bank was quite pleased with the arrangement, and I cannot deny that it will be of great service to many in the community. However, Nabisco’s methods bear striking similarities to “first world” aid policies, and they are not commendable. At the surface level, Nabisco’s intentions appear to be simply to provide assistance in the community. The design of their “assistance program” however has been carefully thought out to ensure the greatest possible returns to the company. is set up to encourage consumers to purchase Nabisco products -- simply out of a desire to be of greater assistance to those in need. A portion of Nabisco’s potential costs are therefore borne by the profit gained from the consumers’ original purchase. It would certainly be absurd to suggest that the entire cost of Nabisco’s donation could be recovered from the profit from consumers’ purchase of an equivalent amount of goods. That would require a 100% profit for Nabisco -- a level that (I at least hope) is not the reality. But what shopper would buy just one can of food to give away? It is more likely that one can would be bought to give away, and three or four more to take home. - This is not to men-

tion that the next time that shopper notices those brand names they will be associated with a “good” company. Advertising doesn’t get much more effective. How does this all relate to international aid? LikeNabisco, Canadaand mostother “first world” nations have followed “aid” policies of self-interest. Canada is well known for sending Canadian made tractors whose parts ma.y only be purchased from Canada. Th;is is not a singular example. Our nation has also offered to assist in building hyldroelectric dams and CANDU reactors - providing of course that they be designed, built, and maintained by Canadian engineers. The World Bank structural adjustment programs (which demand production of export commodities) may be the most damaging of all these policies - the result of which has been a well documented net flow of economic wealth from the South to the North. This is not aid, The Christian tradition demands an alternative policy. From the Hebrew’s freedom - giving jubilee, through to the early Christian communes described in Acts, the Christian call is to the sharing of wealth and of mutu’al assistance. One of the clearest messages of ail comes from the Gospel of Thomas, a noncanonical text from the first century AD: “Jesus said ‘if you have money do not lend it out at interest, but rather give it to someone from whom you will not get it back.“’ Foreign aid would be a very different thing if we paid attention to that call.

Sun team Sunrayce
by Derricl~ Jewlal special to Imprint
A
fter Waterloo’s performance in Sunrayce I back in 1990, when we were running among the respectable for most of the race, the future looked bright for our solar car designers. But somewhere along the way, our team of engineers went terribly wrong, revamping a semi-successful car into a downright loser. In the last race, Sunrayce II, we finished second last (only if you count the car that didn’t run at all as being behind us...), putting pressure on the current Midnight Sun Team to recapture past respectability. The first Sunrayce was held in July of 1990. Contestants travelled in solar powered cars from Walt Disney World in Lake Buena Vista, Florida, to Warren, Michigan, the site of General Motor’s Technical Center. The major sponsor of the competition, General Motors, invited universities fromacross North America to submit solar car proposals for the race, the purpose being to further research in the field of energy conversion and solar power. In April 1989, GM notified Waterloo of its place as one of 32 institution5 chosen to compete in GM SUNRAYCE. Some notable entrants were University of Michigan, who placed first, Caltech, and Stanford. The Midnight Sun was Waterloo’s largest student project to date, with a budget of well over $100,000. Each of the competitors received $5,000 from GM, $2,000 from the U.S. Department of Energy, and a lead car and an equipment vehicle from GM’s Chevrolet Motor Division. All subsequent. fund raising was done by the teams involved. Some of the generous contributors to the Waterloo team included Atlantic Packaging Products Ltd., Atlas Alloys, Energy Mines and Resources Canada, Mr, Gas Limited, Northern Telecom, ORTEC International, PowerPlex, SKF Bearings, University of Waterloo, and Waterloo Engineers in Toronto (WET). However, some schools were more successful than others at raising money.The University of Michigan, for example, had a budget of $1.2 million. For the 1993 race, 3 Michigan students took a year off to raise $2 million dollars. The Midnight Sun was designed by mechanical engineering students and supervised by professors Alfred Brunger and Steve Lambert. The team manager was mechanical engineering student Marc Gagnon. He and three other students were initially looking for a fourth year project, and had planned on doing something connected with Formula SAE or the Shell Fuelathon. When the possibility of working on a solar car arose they couldn’t refuse the challenge. Members of the team were able to apply previous experience gained through the Shell Fuelathon and the Formula SAE. The design of the body was essentially that of an aircraft wing, with a triangular frame, two wheels in front for steering, with the drive wheel in rear, The control systems and power network were designed and built by senior systems design and electrical engineering students. The cockpit was designed by a senior kinesiology student, and the result was an impressive vehicle. The car’s curb weight was 200 kg, and had a top speed of 85 km/h, with a solar array output of 1000 Watts. The car could accommodate an 80 kg driver,

Their results were highly commendable considering this was their first competition. Surprisingly, the world renowned University of Ottawa’s engineering department’s team came in 26th place, eclipsing their previous standard of 28th. The University of Waterloo stood in last place. Sunrayce III is set for June 95, running from Kansas City, Iowa, to near Denver Colorado. The race will be run on some of the most challenging terrain yet, with parts of the course running through the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. This has posed some new problems for the car to overcome, and special software is being designed to calculate the optimal race strategy to employ. Currently, the design of the Midnight Sun III is complete, and the final optimkations are under way. The present goal is to have the prototype complete by Christmas. For those interested in seeing the latest developments in the Midnight Sun Project, the Kitchener Auto Show this weekend at Bingeman Park will have a Midnight Sun exhibit. As always, volunteers are welcome to contribute their time or money to the project. Inquires can be made at the Midnight Sun office, E2- 1307G, or email midsun@zeus. Sunrayce III is looming on the horizon, with the opportunity for the Midnight Sun team to build on their past experience. It is clear that the design of a solar car is not a trivial exercise, and takes a lot of planning and hard work by a team comqked of students with various skills. Naturally, work on the 95 car is in full swing, with less than a year left until race day. Best of luck 10 our team, who have had their share of bad luck in the past.

BACCHUS is not here to preach who should and shouldn’t drink and how much they should drink; they simply promote responsible drinking. The effects of alcohol are as varied as the people that consume it. There are several depending factors: your sex (men have a higher alcohol tolerance than women for the same weight categories), whether or not you have eaten (eating high-protein foods such as cheese and meat will slow down the absorption of alcohol into your system), how fast you drink, if you sip or chug, how many drinks you have in an hour and if the alcohol has a chance to build up in your bloodstream, What type of beverage you are drinking (alcohol diluted with water will slow absorption into the circulatory system) and what type of mood you are in (if you are tired or upset alcohol will have a stronger affect on you) also alter its effects. As you can see, the effect of alcohol are varied. Experience is the only teacher, but you don’t want to learn the hard way. Alcoholics are not only the vagrants that you see on Queen Street in Toronto or the winos in television; they are sometimes the people around you. One in five Canadian families experience problems related to alcohol, whether family or friends. There are three basic types of drinkers. There is the social drinker. They drink slowly, know when to stop drinking, respect nondrinkers, know and respect all of the laws governing the consumption of alcohol and impaired driving. They are essentially a responsible drinker. The second type of drinker is the problem drinker. They typically drink to get drunk, try to solve their problems with drink, their mood and or personality changes and they drink when they shouldn’t (before work or class). This type of drinker exhibits some signs of alcoholism and should seek help. Finally, there is the alcoholic; they have a drinking problem. They spend lots of time thinking about and planning to get drunk and keep bottles hidden for pick-me-ups. They deny that they have a drinking problem, and they often drink alone without consciously knowing how much they have drunk. They sometimes have blackouts and after their hangover they might experience withdrawal symptoms. The running joke connected to alcohol is that the first stage is denial, but it is obvious that there are many problems that precede this.
Sadly,
denial
is the

sign
that people notice, but sometimes it is already too late; the problem has already manifested itself. People joke about being an “alkie” or hitting the bottle too often. For some it seems to be a status symbol: how much you can
drink before you puke. This little survey might provoke you to think about how much alcohol you really are consuming and what your reasons are: - you have a relative who is an alcoholic - you do not respect alcohol as a drug - you use alcohol to solve life’s problems - you go to school or work intoxicated - you have been physically hurt because you were intoxicated - you do something under the influence that you wouldn’t normally - you frequently drink to the state of intoxication - you have financial difficulties as a result of your drinking - you have destroyed property or harmed others as a result of your intoxicated state I you drink to build your self-confidence - you had a complete loss of memory as a result of your drinking - you drink in the mornings - you drink alone - you have a drink to relieve a hangover There are many opinions for “sobering up” quickly: drink lots of water to flush out the alcohol, take a cold shower, drink black coffee or go for a jog are all common theories for sobering up quickly. All they leave you with is a hydrated, clean, fit, awake drunk. . When someone has had too much and has passed out, monitor their breathing and put them in the recovery position, also known as the BACCHUS position. The only way for someone to sober up is to let the body process the alcohol, and this takes time. Now that we’ve identified how alcohol will affect you, the types of drinkers and the characteristics of someone who has a drinking problem, here are some tips on being a responsible drinker: For any gathering, make sure you don’t have the primary focus on alcohol. Realize that not everyone drinks and respect that right. Set a limit to how many drinks you will be consuming and drink slowly. Eat while you drink; it decreases the rate that alcohol is absorbed into your bloodstream. Measure the amount of alcohol you are

putting into your drinks, so you can stick to your limit. Remember that the right to drink is limited by society and governing laws like those concerning drinking and driving. Many prescription and non-prescription drugs have adverse side effects when mixed with alcohol; be aware of any such side effects before you start drinking. Finally remember that alcohol is a drug and must be used with respect.

The only person who has to accept the responsibilities of your actions after consuming alcohol is you. You have the right to not be pressured into drinking and you have the right not to drink. Respect alcohol as a drug. The key to responsible drinking :is to make your own decisions and stick to them; don’t let the crowd or your friends make the decision: they don’t have to live with the consequences.
Demystifying BACCHUS by Meg special
W
Gordon to Imprint
hy do all of my friends laugh when I mention a BACCHUS meeting I have to go to or an article I have to write? The widespread misconception of BACCHUS is that they, the members, do not consume alcohol. This is untrue. Some of the members drink and some don’t, but the decision is a personal one and has no basis on the fact that they are associated with BACCHUS. I drink, sometimes in large quantities, but this part of me existed before BACCHUS and continues now. I’m simply more GduGatod about how alcohol affects my body and how to be a responsible drinker. This does not necessarily mean that T am always a responsible drinker, it just means I know how to be one. During Frosh week there is immense pressure to drink. It seems as if there is no
other option because the awkwardness of meeting complete strangers seems to be erased with a few drinks. Alcohol also eases up your tongue so getting to know people in the of Frosh week is also “evening activities” significantly easier. It is as fact that alcohol

part of social it is a
choice. If you should choose to accept this responsibility you must also be prepared to deal with the consequences. Under the influence of alcohol judgement becomes cloudy or non-existent, and the price for irresponsible behaviour and its consequences is steep. My friends like to think that my involvement in BACCHLJS and the fact that 1 drink is an oxymoron; I drink and I’m involved in BACCHUS. No one at BACCHUS seems to have a problem with it. I’m generally a responsible drinker and I agree with all of BACCHUS’ philosophies. The choice to drink is a personal one and if you so choose, you must also take responsibility for your actions. The choice is also there to not drink, although very few people choose it, Think before you drink and drink responsibly. That’s what BACCHUS stands for, they are not antialcohol and do not preach that alcohol is evil, wrong or bad.

ACCHUS does not preach, they do not look down their noses at those who drink and the people on BACCHUS are not anti-alcohol. B.A.C.C.H.U.S. (Boost Alcohol Consciousness Cbncerning the Health of University Students) encourages the moderation of the use of alcohol and respects the choice of abstinence. To dcmonstratc the various aspects of life that alcohol can affect, BACCHUS presents Alcohol Awareness Week, running from October 3 1 to Novembcr 3. The theme of Monday, October 3 1, is alcohol and rclationships; be it with friends, family, co-workers, boyfriends or girlfriends. In the Campus Centre you can sign a contract for life, talk about sex and alcohol with Captain Condom and check out the Women’s Centre Booth. There will also be a giant poster compiled from cards that you, the student body, will fill out detailing the best or worst alcohol experience you’ve ever had. Anonymity is optional and you can learn from others experience. Alcohol and Health will be presented in the Campus Centre on Tuesday November 1. If all works out you can come and enjoy an alternative high with spaceball and if you don’t know what that is, come get strapped in

and spin until you hurl. There will also be a six-foot liver in the Campus Centre with info about what alcohol does to your health and organs. The BACCHUS manoeuvre will be taught so you can save a drunk friend’s life. Is alcohol draining your wallet? In the Campus Centre on Wednesday November 2 there will be a variation on the old theme of a jelly bean count. Beer boxes and a ten foot beer bottle are being substituted for the jelly beans and jar. Take a guess and see how much alcohol is burning a hole through your savings. Also see ifyou can balance your books and your beer. Drinking and Driving will be presented on Thursday November 3 with display from M.A.D.D. (Mothers Against Drunk Driving), The Waterloo Regional Police, among others. Grab some candy from a body bag, unused of course, for the “Don’t be a sucker in a Bag” event. Events all week run from 10:OO am to 2:30 pm and are held in the Campus Centre. In Fed Hall on Thursday November 3 to Saturday November 5 there will be “Mocktails” (cocktails C,H,OH-free) at our Mocktail Bar for only $1 SO! That’s it? That’s it!

Warriors get re-match against Golden Hawks after smashing York By Kimberly Moser Imprint sports Saturday was a great day to be a football fan, as the Warriors crushed the York Yeomen 3114. Waterloo will now meet the Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawks in f the semi-finals tomorrow at the Skydome for a 1 p.m. start. The Warriors took on the Hapless Yeomen Saturday in their last game of the regular season. This game would decide the fate of Waterloo in the playoffs. From the start of the game the Warriors dominated. Combine that with the University of Toronto’s win over the McMaster Marauders Saturday, and the Warriors finish third in the OUAA right behind Laurier and Wcstem. The entire Warrior team played outstandingly on Saturday. In particular, the punting team had an amazing turnaround from last week.

“Tuffy” Knight in reference to the teams’ play this weekend. “The only thing I wasn’t satisfied with was that we had too many penalties, 18 is just too many.” Waterloo will now face its arch-rival Golden Hawks in a sudden death semi-final tomorrow. This is the second time in less than two weeks that these teams will face each other, and the Warriors have a very good idea of what to expect. “They’re going to throw the ball a lot,” said Knight. “1 think they’re going to try and run the bail more as well. We’d like to try and keep their offense off the field if we could. We’d like to control the ball a little better and we want to play the special teams much better than we did before.” “There will not be a lot of changes but we will spend a lot of time on our punting team because we think that did us in pretty good last time.” This is the first time in two years the Warriors have made the playoffs, and the first time in many years that they have had a good shot at going farther than first round. Many of the fifth year players have been waiting for a long time for this to happen, and are understandably excited and hopeful. “I’m going to have a smile on my face
this whole week,” said cornerback Gory Delaney, a stand-out on defense all year and a consistent return man for the Warriors. “I t’s been five years and I’ve waited for this moment forever. I’m going to make sure 1 fulfill the whole thing. I want to go all the way, I don’t just want to be there!” On Saturday the Warriors dominated from the opening kick-off, scoring on their very first drive. After four quick passes to Rick Shea, and Adrian Thorne, quarterback Steve Bennet saw a wide open Gord Fawcett in the end-zone and connected on the first of Waterloo’s five touchdowns. At the half time mark, the Warriors had a commanding 25- 13 led and would never let the Yeomen get close. The game was also a fantastic one for many of the Warriors. Slotback Gord Fawcett had one of his best games this season, directing the special teams to near perfection and snagging two important touchdowns. Fawcett collected an unbelievable 111 yards on only six catches, earning him this week’s Athlete of the Week honours. One of his touchdowns came on a brilliant faked field goal by the special team unit. Arek Biggos threw a great pass to Fawcett who finished it off for the score. Fawcett, another fifth year player, understands what it is going to take for the Warriors to win against L,aurier tomorrow. “We can’t have any more screw-ups,” said Fawcett. “We’ve got to play pictureperfect football. And I think ifwe do, we have a good shot at going somewhere. I think we can play man-to-man with anybody.” Full back Mike Mallet led the team in rushing with 156 yards. His longest run came on a tough 67-yarder that eventually led to a Mike Son two yard touchdown plunge. Adrian Thorne and Colin Alie had Waterloo’s other touchdowns on Saturday. Steve Bennet was having a good game Saturday before having to leave in the second half with a slight knee injury. He completed 10 of 14 passes for 172 yards. Bennet’s fill-in, Patrick German, continued the assault on the Yeomen defense as he connected on nine of 11 passes for 88 yards. Waterloo had a total of 518 yards of -offense in the game, the best this season.

Athena hockey begins OWIAA playoffs by Judy special
Sahr to the
Imprint
This past Sunday at Toronto’s Lamport Stadium the Waterloo Varsity Field Hockey team played the final two games of their regular season. In the first game, the Athenas were evenly matched against the Queen’s Golden Gales. With an early goal by Leanne Dietrich, the Athenas managed to hold on to a l-0 victory, thanks to exceptional play by both offensive and defensive sides.
Later that afternoon Waterloo captured a 2-O decision against a struggling McGill squad. Linda Mowat and Leanne Dietrich led the way by adding a single each, while goaltender Yolanda Lewczuk played exceptionally well in net, earning her second shutout for the day. These two victories fur the; nationally 8th ranked Athenas concluded a successf%l season. They will hopefully also propel them through the OWIAA championships being held th:is weekend in Ottawa. Good Luck.

The varsity Warri0 f both ors were the first to finish unbeaten, outlasting the GoldenHawks 16-g iunior -- d in a scrappy game that t&first broke down into a two minute melee at one point in the second half. Fortunately, cooler heads prevailed and rugby was allowed to rule the day. The game started well for the Warriors: wing Jeff Naylor scor1’11’1 ing the opening try when the game was only five minutes old. After winning a strum on the near side of the field, the ball moved neatly out through the backs to Naylor, who turned on his speed and beat his opposite number to the corner for the score. Flyhalf Steve Goodacre made the convert, giving the Warriors a 7-O lead.

It looked as though the Warrior players took the game for granted, given their record and after such an explosive start. The second half began with a more inspired Waterloo team who put some early pressure on Laurier in their own end. All that would come ofit, however, was aGoodacre penalty stroke, increasing the Warriors lead to ten, 13-3.

Confidence is high that Waterloo will be able to produce a duplicate of last season’s upset win over Queen’s and bring the OUAA championship game to the Columbia fields. The junior varsity Warriors also saw only one try come their way, as they held on to best Laurier 14-6, in the second game of the day.

The teams travelled to Grand Bend for a gruelling three day ordeal among the towering mountains of sand along the Absauble river. The mission: to squeeze as many hills as possible into a 72 hour period, thereby toughing the team for the OA/ OWIAA championships next weekend. For those who have never been to a hill camp before, it is nearly impossible to imagine the kind of pain one experiences going up and down piles of sand that would make even the toughest runner wince. In fact, a‘ world class sprinter who participated in the camp for the first time seta new record -- he threw up five times in one three-hour workout! The only person who seemed unfazed by these monster hills was Daren “Kangaroo” Raoux who bounded up and down with enough energy to fuel a small jet!

After doing two workouts Saturday the team was primed for the buffet they would devour at Pizza Delight. And devour they did! The team seemed to regain much of the energy that was sucked into the sand upon the mere sight of food. Not a single tray of desserts bound for the buffet made it intact past our tables. After dinner, the team banded together for an inspirational meeting. We discussed our mission -- to demolish the other teams at the OU/OWIAA championships in Kingston next Saturday. Both teamshave an excellent chance to go to the CIAU championships in London this year.If conquering The Hill won’t do just that, I don’t know what will! The third day of the camp put to rest the assumption that “it can’t be that bad!” rookie Philip Joyce made on the van ride up. It was that bad. After over an hour warm-up run through the bush where (thank%liy) no one got lost this time, the workout began. The team participated in a series of relays on The Hill where viewers were treated to a number of gracetil face-plants from runners barrelling down The Hill at out of control speeds. Just when we thought that we couldn’t possibly do more, The Beast was introduced. This is a hor-
ror beyond explanation. Suffice to say it involved over two hundred chinnies and a very large hill. At last the team headed home, feeling a great senseof accomplishment and (just a little) fatigued. Many thanks go out to trainer Kevin Blake and coachesBrent Mc Farlane, John Swarbrick and Don Peterson. Although they only got to watch us run the hills, I’m sure they felt our pain. This was evident by the satisfied smiles on their faces. Congratulations to all survivors of the hill camp: Athenas Sherry carter, Sara Dillabaugh, Lise Guevremont, Judith Leroy, Denise Thody, Tracy Tremble, Cheryl Turner and Trish Wolcott and Warriors Phil Demsey, Jason Gregoire, Phil Joyce, Brett Kilty, Daren Raoux, Paul Sudlow, Kelly Slough and Chris Watson. An excellent effort was put forth from everyone, which will certainly show at the OU/OWJAA championships. And remember guys... asBrent said, don’t bother telling anyone about what we went through, because they won’t believe any of it!

Killing Joke The Upera Howe Monday, October 24 by Sandy Atwall Imprint staff
E
verything about Jaz Coleman screams intensity. From his furrowed eyebrows above his searching, burrowing eyes, to his indomitable stage presence, to his work as frontman for Killing Joke, which itself ranges from unyieldingly passionate to unwaveringly tempestuous. Coleman and his entourage, guitarist cxtrodinaire Geordie Walker and bassist Youth havefunncllcd this intensity into a band that has made some of the most influcntial music in the post-punk era - if that means anything anymore Despite the mainstream press’ statements to the contrary, this is not the original lineup. Notably absent is drummer Big Paui (who is currentIy pursuing a career with The Orb.) Killing Joke has also added a keyboardist, originally Jaz Coleman’s post. Change, however, is part of Killing Joke’s nature. The breakup and reformation of Killing Joke and its line-up changes have been a fact of life for the band. Despite these changes, this latest incarnation ofthe band kicked off its North American tour in Toronto with a blazing show of force. Touring in support oftheir new albumPandemonium, which iseven more industrial and anthemic than their previous album, Killing Joke demonstrated that the band’s reputation for fierce live performances is in no danger of being damaged. Arriving on stage just after eleven o’clock, Youth walked on wearing a kilt and a shaman-esque
headdress complete with deer antlers. Odd, but he was outdone by Jaz Coleman, who chose a long black shirt and his customary black face paint. He would have looked like a demented catholic priest had it not been for the black jester’s cap he sported. Opening with “Communion,” Jaz set the mood for the whole show, stressing a semi-religious, semisacreligious tone for the night. Throughout the night, the band opted not to deafen the crowd with a sonic assault, (which they easily could have) but rather stress a musical excellence uncommon in bands that produce music as powerful as Killing Joke. If there was any doubt as to the crowd’s willingness to be converted to the Killing Joke faith, that doubt died when the band broke into their second song, “Whiteout.” A semi-techno juggernaut, the audience members simultaneously went insane when the opening riffs blazed out of Geordie’s guitar. The insanity continuued on to the next song, “Wardance” and was not quelled in any way by the arrival of a fire-eater who, sadly, stayed only for that one song. The band’s set list was focused very highly on the very old and the very new. Of the frftecn songs performed, eight were from the new album, and four were from their first album. Ofthe in-between songs, “Love like Blood,” “ Kings and Queens,” “Pssyche,” “Pssyche” was undoubtedly the high point, An early single never released on an album, “Pssyche” represents the early Killing Joke at their most fascinating and mo:t devastating. It also contains one of their best lines, “Dodge the bullets or carry the gun, the choice is yours.”

ast Wednesday, Toronto Concert venue Lee’s Palace played host to the newest sensation to come out of Manchester. This is the band Oasis, supposedly risen from the ashes. of the”“’ Stone Roses, and hailed by the British Press as the Second Coming itself. Two things become apparent about this statement. One, the British Music press is just a little too desperate for something new, and exciting in music. SeconcVy,

and
The sound throughout the show was near impeccable. Despite some skipped beats by the session drummer, the only other major audible screw up was the sudden toning down of Geordie’s guitar during “Exorcism” - easily one of the best tracks on the new release. As always, Jaz was more than willing to share his shattered view of the world with the audience. Before the band broke into Wardance, Jaz restated his oft-spoken belief that peacetime is simply an interruption in a constant state of war. Before “Exorcism,” he went into an extended tirade against the power of guilt, warning the audience that unless they did exorcise their guilt, they were asking for cancer. Such posturing reached its highlight during the aforementioned song, where Jaz poured water on the crowd. Whether the water was holy or not, I’m not sure, but his little piece ofmysticism was severly undermined by the fact that he was pouring it out of a Molson Canadian plastic beer cup instead of a chalice or some such artifact. However, no one ever accused Killing Joke of not having a sense of humour, and if Coleman’s shenanigans don’t always make sense, the band remains both musically and artistically fascinating. After “Love like Blood” (a crowd pleaser, to be sure) the ‘band left the stage, but returned for a powerful five song encore. Altogether, the show lasted almost eighty-five minutes, and could only have left the most jaded fans unsatisfied.

Lead guitarist Noel Gallagher plays his guitar with a still reverence, barely looking up at all, but instead building a bombastic wall of guitar that is barely pierced by brother Liam’s somewhat whiny singing. Their songs, although excellently played, are essentially rock songs- in the clas33ic early seventies sense. They are highly reminiscent of latter-day Faces, and especially of Ian Hunter’s Mott the Hoople, with just a smattering of Humble Pie, and spiced with late era Beatles flavouring, most noticeable in the choruses of many of their songs. They even ended their concert with a version of Lcnnon’s “I Am the Walrus”.

Tree, Parade, An April March Vuicano Club, Kitchener Tuesday October 18th
by Greg Imprint
K&chick staflf

here are certain shows that inadvertantly become a sort of measuring stick to show the state of the music scene today. Green Day playing the C.N.E. The huge crowds at the side stage of Lollapalooza. The large numbers of people at various local shows... And the tiny gatherings at others. For the latter catagory, one only needs to look at this Perfume Tree concert, and the disappointing number of people present at this gig. First on the bill were An April March, a once local band now relocated to Toronto, and on to what one would hope would be greener pastures. Compared to al1 of the excessively dull local bands out there who sound the same (stand up Turning Screws, The Longfellows, The Groove Daddies, The (now defunk-ed) Dervishes, and Quiverleg), who all get middling to large crowds, An April March are a more than welcome breath of fresh air. Why then was this gig deserted? Ok, it was a Tuesday night, in the middle of midterms, but surely a healthy music scene could support more than the thirty or so souls that were there. That, then, is the point here: the local music community is un-
healthy, and it needs bands like An April March, not afraid of doing different things. Currently pared down to a three piece, the band persevered to put on a fairly entertaining show consisting of a lot of new material that could use a little ironing out. Derivative at times they may be, but at

least they draw from a bit of an atypical pool of music (MBV and the Cocteaus, obviously), and their best moments suggest a band that could grab the same sort of demographic the Rose Chronicles have garnered. Great drumming, by the way. Next up were Toronto’s Pa-
rade, on tour currently with the headliners as they travel through Quebec and Ontario. The lead singer led off the show by slowly turning about while holding a large white cheesecloth banner, all to the strains of much feedback and noise that would make Toni Halliday proud. In fact, Toni’s now former band Curve are definitely big influences (big slabs of guitars and drum machines are prevalent), but the noise is tempered by some strong singing, and a certain artiness floats through it all. Topping it off were some interesting visuals in the form of four large T.V. monitors and couple of slide prqjectors behind the band, all of which were also used by Perfume Tree. One of the most undersung and sadly unknown bands in the country, they dragged the listeners in the club through the deep dark comers of the soul, assailing the crowd with a miasma of guitars and lights and pounding rhythms. They managed to coax a few up to the floor to dance by the end, and a few smiles from the two guitarists and one bassist (no drummer! brilliant!) suEeested that thev were satisfied ihat\; least a few oit there in the world enjoy their matetial. They show their influences without being mere copy-cat artists, and in the end play some very unique stuff. If you can, track their stuff down. So it ended, and the crowd quietly shuffled away. A bigger crowd next time? I for one am hoping that is the case.

started out three years ago when they won the semi-finals of a “Molson’s Canadian Rocks” contest. Rob Lulic still laughs at the fact that he had to place an add in a local music magazine to find a lead singer. Johnson was the singer who won the part. Since then, the drummer and bassist have been replaced several times. But the current lineup has been together for about a year and a half. Originally the band had trouble agreeing on the style of the music that they wanted the rest of the music world to hear. Lyndon Johnson, originally from Manchester England, played a large part in forming their identity which has been repeatedly compared with the Manchester sound. RWO is under the label Plum Records, but they control their own division called Citrus Soul. Lulic mentioned wanting to sign other independent bands in the future. The hour and a half set was a mix of great songs from Peel and from the new album. They made a great perforrnante really entertaining by playing different versions of their old hit singles.
For exaniple, “Marvin” was an extended mix that even included a cut from Duran Duran. This band from Vancouver is a fruitopian experience and they put on a great performance.

WRONG. The original Cult is back and they’ve definitely moved with the times. The band looked more like an ‘80’s new wave group than a bunch of classic rockers. Short hair, goatees, and not a belly to be seen anywhere among the five of them. The sound, too was totally rehashed. Maybe it was just the concert setting, but the bass and drums seemed a lot more prominent than I remember from their old albums. This gave the music, even the old songs, a harder, more intense rhythm. The guitars had a raw, unchained feel to them. The overall effect was more of a Deep-Purplemeets-Metallicasort ofthing. Their stage presence had most of the crowd actively involved in the party
onstage, and the band looked like they were really enjoying themselves. The band powered through an hour-and-a-half set of old classics interspersed with new songs before coming back for another half-dozen song encore set. Yes, new songs! They’re putting out a new album in the spring! Classic songs included Stuirwzy to the Stars, Call Me Dr. Music, E. 72. (Extra-Terrestrial /n&ligence), and I’m Burnin ’ Fur You. Of course the set was filled out with the band’s two die hard tunes, Godzilla (“Oh no! There goes Tokyo. Oh, no, Godzilla!“) and Dopl ‘I: Fear the Reaper. The latter, however, was performed with a sort of yeah-if-we-have-to-singthe-damn-song-again attitude, an attitude which seemed to parallel that of the audience. Definitely not riding on their former success, Blue Oyster Cult cranked out a few new tunes like I’d Like to See You in B/u& and Still Burnin ‘, songs which would seem to dictate a big comeback in store for the Cultists. The show was opened by the Road House Band, a regular staple at Lulu’s, followedup by T.O. Joker. God, did these guys have a attitude problem! I can’t honestly say I’ve ever heard a band APOLOGISE for playing their own music before.

Lines like “you listened to us, SO now we’ll play what you want to hear,” and “thanks for putting up with us”) isn’t really the best way to promote yourself. Apparently they were included in the 1993 Y-95 new talent album contest, “During,” the lead singer told us, “my heroin addiction...but I’m all right now.” Well...not from where we stand. It’s a shame really, because they did some really good cover tunes, Rush tunes in particular. They just didn’t have the attitude or energy to get the crowd really riled up for the main act. Their last song was a kick-ass cover of the Ramones’ “I Wanna Be Sedated”, that came out of a seemingly nowhere set, and disappeared into a half hour set changz They finally got up enough guts to make an impression, then they left. The audience was finally getting into a proper concert attitude, then it was over, leaving an overall impression of what-the-hell-was-that? If they could try to emulate that energy througout the rest of their set, they might become a band worth watching. Overall, Blue Oyster Cult was a big success, look for them fighting their way back into the limelight in the coming year.

Id, new and tentative Rheostatics fans will be treated to a rare opportunity in the UW Humanities Theatre tonight, as the cult heroes pay their first visit to the K-W area since the release of their latest CD Intruducing Happiness. Instead of enduring the usual smoky, full-contact basement club crawl, Friday’s concert-goers will temporarilyown their own seat (and small document to prove it), be able to see and hear the band clearly, and given that the show starts at 8:OO P.M. have plenty of time for smoky libations later in the evening The Rheostatics have covered a lot of ground since the independent release of their first album Greatest Hits in 1987. After embarkIntroducing ing on several national and international tours and logging two more critically acclaimed records, Melville in 199 1 and Whale Music in 1992, the Rheostatics now find themselves on the roster ofthe major American label Sire Records with Introducing Happiness. Ever prolific, the band contrib-
uted about thirty minutes of music to a film adaptation of Canadian author Paul Quarrington’s novel Whale Music. After flattering Quarrington by naming one of their albums after his book, the band met him and were eventually asked to work on the soundtrack. The film, premiered at this year’s Toronto Film Festival, will feature unique material in addition to the teen pop cut “Claire” from their new album. A video for “Claire” was recently released, but even my intense love for the band can’t stop me from telling you that it’s apoorly

saw Quiz Show with my mother, and as soon as the cred its ended she exclaimed that Robert Redford must be a wonderful man. (She made the same comment about Spielberg at the end of Schindler’s List.) She said Quiz Show proved a movie could be effective without violence or car crashes. I rolled my eyes and replied “Didn’t we already know that?“, but she faked a coughing fit and pretended she couldn’t hear me. We then launched into a debate over a movie’s intent versus its craft, and let me tell you, things got pretty ugly. Our taxi driver was frightened--but my mother’s young and idealistic, she wants to change the world. What can you do? The argument I never quite articulated (lest she refuse to pay for the cab) was that craft is intent. No matter how ardently a filmmaker claims to love humanity, no matter how desperately his/her concern, if the film isn’t put together carefully, scrupulously, somebody’s lying. We needn’t salivate every time a flick aims a fraction higher than the lowest common denominator. As an audience, we deserve the very best. And we should always be treated as such, because ultimately, artistic quality is the most powerful message of any medium. It’s not that@& Show is assinine. Films about high-placedcorruption are, generically, invigorating, and Redford’s slick, antinostalgic look at late 1450’s TV is not an exception. Paul Attanasio’s script, inspired by former attorney Richard N. Good- 3-a 1 win* 9~s memoir,Kernemoering America: A Voicefrom fhe Sixties, makes Goodwin’s investigation of NBC and its popular quiz show, Twenty-One, suspenseful. Goodwin is first intrigued by the case when he learns a grand jury examined allegations of fraud by a one-time contestant, Herbert Stempel (John Turturro), and kept the findings secret. A ttanasio manages to create a drama out of Goodwin’s detective work, shady network executives’ manoeuverings, Stempel’s whiney frustration, and the ratings ascent of a dapper, genteel contestant, Charles Van Doren (Ralph Finnes). Rob Morrow, of Northern Exposure fame, gives Goodwin a thick Massachusetts accent and an integrity mixed with a personal ambi valence. The film plays up issues of classism and anti-Semitism in both the network’s behaviour and Goodwin’s own self-concept, so that as Goodwin sinks deeper into the duplicity of Twenty-One and its contestants, he is caught short by his own feelings about Van Doren--the

The vibrancy of the acting is universally impressive, profiting from two sleazy, hilarious, and finally chilling performances by David Paymer (the brother in Mr. Saturday Night) and Hank Azaria as producing partners; Christopher McDonald as the narcissistic emcee; leatheryfaced Paul Scofield as Van Doren Sr., the noble father Charles fears and envies; and filmmakers Martin Scorsese and

the enterprise. Though America in the 50’s had no idea the network kept grooming one contestant at the expense of another, fixing the game to cater to the ratings, we know, And even though we’re aware of Van Doren’s guilt, we can’t resist him either. Finnes reads his lines in a peculiarly mellow, lackadaisical way--words seem to linger on his tongue--and though we know when he’s lying, we’re almost taken in by his shy smile too. By contrast, Turturro’ s S tempel has frequent tantrums in a high, nasal voice, and continually invades others’ space. With a blacked-out tooth and a wardrobe that leaves him sitting around in his underwear bitching to his son, Stempel is repugnant. Yet he’s the one bringing these crooks

Body Count, the infamous band fronted by rapper Ice-T is back. Born Dead is the follow up to their controversial debut Body Count. For those who were asleep for this exciting episode in freedom of speech, Body Count is the album that contained the (now edited out and supposedly misunderstood) song “Cop Killer”. Unlike the predecessor, Born Dead is not marked for controversy, stupidity maybe, but not controversy. 1 once heard that people who swear a lot do so because they don’t have the vocabulary to express what they mean. If this is true then Tee-T must have a vocabulary the size of a Tesame seed. There

tal convolutions tune in to the revolution,” or “multitudes of thoughtless clones have reached a critical mass” should give you the idea. I have never known a band to have as many catchy harmonies as Bad Religion, and they didn’t disappoint me on this release. Songs like “Incomplete,” the title track “Stranger than fiction,” and “2lst Century Digital Boy”(formerlyappearing on the album Against the Grain, for those in the know) continue this legacy that the band has created for themselves. Other things I like about this album include: -the cool guitar and tempo switches on “Leave Mine to Me,” -the interesting perspectives in the lyrics for “The Handshake” -the different sounds of “Slumber” and “Inner Logic” -the vocals, as always, on every track -the fact that every song inspires thought, not just the urge to jump up and down with your friends -etc., etc., etc . .. . What I don’t like is the shortness of this and every other Bad Religion album: we clock in at a little over thirtyeight minutes, with fifteen songs. I’m not really complaining, howposse repeats the song title over and over again. Quite redundant even without the use of the vulgar language for emphasis. I can handle a few “tick this or fuck that” to get the point across. Anymore than that and it loses its effect, a valuable lesson that Ice-T needs to learn. It seems that this so called hardcore band have run out of ma-
terial. Body Count do their best to imitate the sound of established altemative acts, but the recycled beats and guitar tiffs don’t go very far. They do a pale imitation of Soundgarden with “Necessary Evil” and the song “Drive By” sounds

It’s customary for a record review to attempt to describe the sound of an album that is reviewed. Well, this album sounds like Bad Religion, only mbre so. It’s not easy to describe unless you’ve already heard the band. I could compare this release to former releases from the band, such as Recipe for Hate, NO Control, orGenerator, but there are as many differences as similarities. Tf you don’t like the band, you might say that all the songs sound the same, but I could say the same about any band that I don’t like. Since the band is gaining in popular media attention, I would recommend catching a listen to at least one tune by the band, or maybe go to see their upcoming show at The Warehouse in Toronto on November 24. I submit that you will find more than enough reasons to start your Bad Religion record collection. For the growing population that has access to the Internet and other information super-highway catchphrase delights, the band suggests that all e-mail be sent to Badreligion.com, and I know that Greg Gaffin has his own e-mail address that I’ve seen on newsgroups like alt.music.hardcore so you might want to take advan$ge of your account for something other than course work. Like the band says, “no Bad Religion song will make your life complete,” but a few of their albums add something to better CD collections everywhere. like a Ministry reject. Surprisingly the highlight of Born Dead is a traditional rendition of Jimi Hendrix’s “Hey Joe”. Although it is a fine song in its own right, its inclusion brings home the point about the Body Count having nothing new to offer. For one thing, the song is a cover tune and hardly an original version at that, For another, the song already appeared on a Hendrix tribute album and is therefore not new material. Burn Dead in short, is a boring second effort. Ice-T should have pulled the plug on Body Count before it came to this. One thing that it does prove, controversy sells records. This one isn’t all that different from the first effort except it lacks that one song. The one to provoke a reaction from police organizations across the nation. There is nothing as stirring this time around to create hype and make you want to own this. Body Count hasn’t changed,.- the music is the same it Just happens to sound stale the second lime around.

As live recordings go, this one is well done; it is a very clear and sharp production as opposed to those disappointing live recordings that sound terrible and you wish you had never bought. This album was originally recorded December 29, 1993 at the Barrowlands in Glasgow, between then and now there’s been a lot of
mixing, with good results. This is a 14 trackdisc that includes memorable songs like “Peace in Our T i m e ” , “Wonder1 a n d ti , “Chance” and of course “In a Big Country” (which includes a really different guitar solo for the song). The album is divided into two parts, tracks l-6 are all slower and acoustic (unplugged if you will) and you can sing along with the crowd on these songs as you ca.n hear them clearly. Tracks 7-14 are of the electrified guitar version and this pretty much drowns out the background sound of the crowd. It really struck me as odd when I realized the age of the song In a Big Country, which was on Big Country’s incredible debut album, when I heard it at the Bomber on 80’s night. This song (which I iistened to pre-highschool) as with the others sound more vibrant then on album recordings, demonstra ting that Big Country is an excellent live rock band. Big Country has pretty much avoided the many music trends between the early 80’s to present, which is something to be said of a band from the UK. As pointed out by Steve Sutherland, editor of NME, “They aren’t fashioned at all. They are as real as can be and that still counts a lot.”

band out of Bristol, formed in 1992 by ex-members of the Blue Aero-
planesandtheMekong.Guitartiffs
Usually bands that are the “current darlings of the U.K. press” are over hyped, one-hit-wonder-nevershould have-been and never-willbe’s who just don’t deserve the glory the papers shower upon them. (Can you say Suede?) Nonetheless, I find myself for once agreeing with VOX, Q Magazine and yes, even the N.M.E. Strangelove is a brilliant new
send chills up the spine with memories of the Smiths and early R.E.M.. All in all its an exceptionally morbid and melancholic piece of work ranging from pleading anger to desolation. The lead-off single “Time For the Rest of Your Life’ is probably one of the best new tracks from a guitar based band that I’ve heard in quite a few years. Listening to it’s insightful lyrics one is drawn into vocalist Patrick Duffy’s shadowy world. Though they borrow a lot of ideas from mid-eighties pop/alternative to the late eighties/
by Greg Imprint
“Denial” is a reasonable leadoff single, but perhaps a more adventurous choice would have been the mellow acoustic number “Drugs Guns and Booze,” or even a spedup “Anna is a Speed Freak,” a song that cries out in vain to be played in

Probably a good indication of how interesting this album is would be the fact that I’ve had it for weeks, without having the time or the desire to sit down and listen to it. Either that or it’s an indication that my tastes don’t include Pure. Tn any case, the best way to describe this Vancouver band’s second effort would be, “Well, it’s there....and that’s about it.” Whereas their first effort contained some great singles (and the numerous videos for “Blast” were rather fun), almost none of the thirteen tracks on this album stick out as the next bin Pure hit.

1 double time. In fact, a lot of this album is quite mellow, treading into a sort of dreamy Smashing Pumpkins sort of mode.
early nineties shoegazer movement, this band seems to come away with something fresh and provoking. Angry screams of “I don ‘t want to die..” interspersed with an underlying anger at the inevitability of death are at the heart of this album. Other tracks like “All Because of You” and “Is There a Place?” tell sad, beautiful stories we can a31relate to. “No one will love yuu in a IO00 years, Nu me will know you in a 1000 years. This is killing me... ” Strangelove deserve all the credit they have been given and more. Watch for these lads to do great things. Pick this gem up and I am sure you will not regret it.
As for the faster tracks, “Spiders” comes off like a more interesting 54-40 circa the last album, with hammond organ whirling about mystically, while “What It Is” leads off the album with squalling guitar and Jordy’s as-per-usual somewhat heavy-handed moralistic words. And...+what else can I say? Well, in a live setting this band manages to transform the inherent dullness of their sound into something worth watching (see my review of their show at Phil’s a few weeks back.) And....the inside cover of this album reminds one quite a lot of the Check Your Head inside sleeve. And .. . .. .. y ‘know I’d really rather be listening to the new Orbital album, or really= many other more interesting albums that are out now, in this fall season of tons 0’ new releases. And, oh yes, buy it if you care, I suppose.

The first thing you’ll notice about this album is the name of some of the tracks. Three of them are named after characters on Quenton Tarantino’s Reservoir Dogs. After that, things get weird. There is virtually no consistency of style between the various songs here. “Trouble Come Down” is a mellow song, with mild vocals and a piano backing them up. “More ways than three” sounds like unrefined Soundgarden, lacking only fancy guitar-playing and Cornell’s distinctive vocals. “0” sounds like a Charde song, just with the drums mixed really loud. “Mr. Blue” is very experimental. It’s basically a rhythm track with weird little

Back together after a five year hiatus, David 3, Daniel Ash and Kevin Haskins offer up their newest masterpiece. Hot Trip to Heaven takes Love and Rockets in a new direction from their previous releases. The screaming and screeching of “Motorcycle” and the evil dance beats of “So Alive” have been replaced by something new. Love and Rockets have ventured out of their usual Goth music, post Bauhaus slumber and have embraced the ambient, trance music scene. Now, I will not pretend to be an expert on this genre of rave inspired music. Lack of credentials aside, I can say that I like what I hear. The collective minds of Love and Rockets have come up with a refreshing new sound on Hot Trip TO Heaven. Ambient dance music is no stranger to Love and Rockets. “Haunted When The Minutes Drag” hinted at the potential and now that ambient music is in vogue, Love and Rockets have grasped it fully for the new release. Mind you
noises mixes in. Some are guitar, some are keyboards, some I have no idea of their origin. The best song on the album is definitely “Willow”, a fairly blatant Pink Floyd rip-off. I like Pink Floyd, so this song which sounds exactly like them is actually listenable to more than once. If you’re thinking that this album sounds screwed up, you’re right. I think these guys should take some time and try to decide what direction they want to go in before another album. While Reservoir Dogs was a great film, making what essentially amounts to a concept album about that movie seems a little misdirected. Rather than trying to ride piggyback on someone else’s success, they should be concentrating on getting their own shit together. Frankly I think Tarantino should sue these morons, although I doubt he needs the royalties right now. They have skill but lack the focus to do anything with it at the moment. Iwouldn’t recommend buying this album, but I’d watch out for these guys in the future. this is not as ground breaking as some might have you believe. Lots of bands have done this before. Even so, it is new for Love and Rockets. There has always been a large Goth, dance element to their music and it is still there in limited capacity. What is new are the extended nature of the songs which come complete with long floating instrumental sections. Half the tracks clock in at over seven minutes! The fifteen minute opener “Body and Soul” is a spacey trip ofharmonica and washed out vocals, and there is more where that came from. “Be The Revolution” and “This Heaven” are both fine examples of the quality of tracks presented here. Hut Trip TO Heaven can be likened to an extended drug experience that fades in and out. Some songs bring to mind Pink Floyd while others evoke a My Bloody Valentine or Smashing Pumpkins feel. Transglobal Underground’s Natacha Atlas makes an appearance on a few tracks and the female vocals are a welcome addition to the mix. Love and Rockets have always carried on the trippy sound, but this takes it to their techno limit. This album should open up Love and Rockets to a whole new fan base. Perhaps the new fad on the rave scene will entail pale skin, black and lace clothing, silver jewellery and dyed jet black hair.
Imprint, Friday, October 28, 1994
by James Bussell Imprint Staff This album is comprised of a jumbled collection of styles, boring songs and incredibly stupid lyrics. And an incredibly small amount of creativity went into this waste of money. The cliches just keep coming. The lyrics, the interior artwork, even the cover, it’s all been done before, either by Palmer, or by others. I suppose the music is the main thing, so 1’11 skip right past the cover where a girl with lots of eye make-up and lipstick is kissing Palmer as he smirks at the camera (a girl with lots of make-up? Didn’t I see this in one of Palmers videos‘? Or was it two of Palmers videos? Or was it all of Palmers videos?). Tracks one and two are “Honey A” and “Honey B”, no doubt causing Palmer days of anxiety over what to name the album (personally, I think “Honey” is a brilliant compromise). Honey B is almost Calypso, with several complex rhythms going on simultaneously. Unfortunately, this leaves the song without focus. Fortunately you will not notice this as you will be riveted by the lyrics. “Huney bee, I’m yuur main devotee, let’s establish a cuhny. Honey bee, 1 he your comparzy, be with me, in this tree.” There are a few tracks that could get minor airplay on easy listening stations, such as “Love Takes Time” or “Know By Now.” They are simple, stupid, inoffensive, unoriginal and dull. They are the only potential singles. Nuno Bettencourt plays on some of the tracks. Needless to say, this does not help. As if “Honey” wasn’t complete crap already, making some of it sound like Extreme is even worse.

From the title of Lyle Lovett’s latest album you might think that his well known cynicism towards life and love may have been dissolved when he hooked up with Julia Roberts. However, in an interview he said that what he does is put together all the songs which go together under a particular theme, even though some may have been written a long time ago. So although most of the songs on the album deal with love its not that his outlook on the subject might have changed recently. It is an album which takes a few listens in order to get past the point of all the song’s sounding the same and I may not yet be at that point. But, the more I listen to it the more each song displays its individuality. The lyric3
are what
set
apart Lovett from most other artists. With song titles like “Fat Babies”, “Skinny Legs” and “Penguins” you get the idea that the songs aren’t
crappy
music.
So do I. For some reason I will never understand, Palmer does a song called “Wham Barn Boogie.” Thanks but no thanks. David Wilcox is moron enough. Anyway, if you liked “Simply Irresistible” and all the other songs that sounded like that, don’t buy this album. There is nothing like it here. If you didn’t like those songs, don’t buy this album. This is far worse.

just “Boy I really love you, you mean so much to me” type love songs. However, there does not seem to be the same wit and cynicism which I have heard in some of his other songs. Musically he has expanded from his original straight country sound This album is very stripped down to just aguitar,bass, drums and Lovett’s laid back but somehow always strained vocals. After a while this setup gets a bit boring with little distinction between the songs. It may still be to early to say whether or not I like this album, I like what I have heard from his previous albums better, but I guess the real test will be if I am still listening to it in a month, and right now that doesn’t seem very likely.
