UWM's symbol is easy to interpret, but I can't understand Parkside's. 1 asked several people, an they don't have a clue. — Dazed and Confused Good Question. We made a couple phone calls asking what the symbol was all about, and we agree - most people don't know. Dave Buchanan, director of public relations here at UW-Parkside, said the symbol represented trees and leaves. He also said that supposedly "UWP" can be seen within the symbol, but he could never see it him self. Neither could we. Dear Ranger Growl, The University's policy for keeping the campus open is clearly stated at the start of each snow season: in general the campus will be open unless an announcement to the contrary is made on local radio and television stations well before classes begin. I have no quarrel with this policy. But when the decision is made to keep the campus running, as was the case during the snowy period of January 26 and 27, the University has a responsibility to do what is necessary to keep the parking lots and walkways safe. At a minimum, this should mean that the walkways are shoveled, not once and perfunctorily, but often, if n eed be. This was not the case at the end of January. Walkways were awash in sloppy, slippery slush, making walking hazardous. A few people with shovels could have corrected this problem. But we had to wait for Nature to do the job the University should have done. If the University expects it to be business as usual during winter storms, it needs to do a better job of shoveling snow. — A Careful Treader Got a complaint?

Clarification in previous issue: Fund raising for the installation of the stain glass sculpture in main place occurred through the UW-Parkside foundation. UW-Parkside News Briefs Drop fee is lowered by $5 Before the end of the fall semester, the student senate voted on a resolution that supported lowering the Drop Fee, Transcript Fee, and the Graduation Fee to 2002 rates. More than 700 students signed postcards supporting the right students have to oversee any student fee that affects student interests. Through Wisconsin Statute 36.09(5) students were given the right to assist in the development of universities throughout the UW system. PSGA President Vik Sidhu announced during the first student Senate meeting of the year that the dropped three had decreased by five dollars down from $20 a credit, "...administration knows that we are here to address concerns and we will bring them up." SAC No longer holds ID's During an employee meeting January 19, it was decided that student workers would no longer hold ID's for equipment or for the usage of the Ranger Power Center located in the Sports Activity Center. Concerns included both the replacement cost of a RangerONE card as well as asking student to part with an ID that may be link to a line of credit. Any Students wishing to checkout equipment from the Issue Room will be only asked to display his or her ID long enough to record their full name. Available equipment supported by student fees includes: Tennis Racquet, Protective Eyewear, Medicine Ball, Jump Rope, Men's and Women's Basketballs, Volleyball, Soccer Ball, Bat mitten / Shuttle, Ping Pong Paddle, and Daily Use Master Locks. Speed bump on the bridge? A section of the floor of the Union Bridge compressed into a bump, eliciting contusion, concern, and laughter among people who saw the buckled bricks on the floor. UWParkside's engineering specialist, Jim Foertsch, said that the differential in temperature between the outside cold and the emperature inside the bridge caused the paver tiles to corn- Dress about 5/16 of an inch, creating the buckle. The paver iies are 1/2" deep, having no bearing on the structural sturdiness of the bridge. When they compressed, they piled on top of one another, creating the bump. The bump was fixed by cutting two 1/8" control joints the width of the bridge, which allowed the paver tiles to settle back into place. Foertsch said that this is just a surface problem, which will be further lossed over during spring break. The bridge is "safe for people to walk on," Foertsch said, "Nothing is going to fall own. You could drive a Mack truck on top of that bridge." The Ranger News February 14, 2004 Student Fees Allocated by Representative Government By Josh Langer and Todd Drangstveit Fees effect the life of every UW-Parkside student, whether you are an athlete, the member of an extracurricular club, a student who uses the Union, or just reads this paper. The Ranger News will examine fees and their uses in this four-part series. Part 1: The Segregated Fee The Student Segregated Fee is included in a student's bill under "Tuition & Fees." Full-time students pay $286 each semester for this tee, while parttime students pay proportional rates to the amount of credits they take. This year, 5,097 full- and part-time students paid fees in excess of $2.3 million dollars in the form of the Student Segregated Fee. These are monies that will fund Union programs, Student Activities, and the University's Athletics Program, along with campus organizations such as the UWParkside Activities Board (PAB) and The Ranger News. UW-Parkside students indirectly decide how to allocate these funds through their elected representatives in the Segregated University Fees Allocation Committee (SUFAC). SUFAC consists of nine members who write and apply policies concerning the Student Segregated Fee. Of these nine, the student body elects one individual during the Spring elections. That person is the "at large" member of SUFAC. Department SUFAC Allocations • 2003-2004' •2004-2005 Another member is the President Pro Tempore of the Student Senate, six are PSGA senators elected by their peers, and the last is an appointee of the PSGA president. These nine UW-Parkside students decide how the student body's fees will be spent. Recently SUFAC has overhauled its funding of organizations, changing the way monies are allocated to clubs, for twro reasons: efficiency and planning. The University has plans to expand. Keep posted to this series for more information on the proposed Union expansion. Next issue we will explore the intricacies and particularities of the Student Segregated Fee and SUFAC's difficult job of appropriating these funds to best meet the needs of the student body. PAB Throws Down Casino Nite UW-Parkside students were encouraged to do something that is usually frowned upon in an academic environment on Thursday, January 29. They were encouraged to gamble. Every UW-Parkside student was invited to attend the third annual Casino Nite, held in Union Square. There was no cost for the event. Admission was allowed for all students with a valid RangerOne card. About 200 people attended the event, which was sponsored by the Parkside Activities Board (PAB), with a little help from their friends over at 101.7 FM W1PZ. T he event was hosted by Casino Party Specialists - "The Aces of Gaming Entertainment." Each student was given $500 in chips. Dealers taught students the basics in blackjack, craps, Pai Gow Poker, Caribbean Stud Poker, Let it Ride Poker, Three Card Poker, Red Dog, and Mini Baccarat. At the end of the night, students cashed in their chips for raffle tickets, which cost $200 dollars in chips apiece. The PAB chose several prizes for the raffle, including a DVD player, a portable CD player, a cordless phone, and a CD rack that lights up. But the real attraction of Casino Nite is not money or prizes. In the words of blackjack dealer David, "Winning here isn't as fun as winning at a real casino. But losing here is not so bad." Games were not the only option for entertainment. Caricaturist Kevin Berg scribbled with frenzy for the entirety of the event, which lasted from 7-10. There was a palm reader, mysteriously hidden behind partitions; and food and lemonade. PAB president Miranda Flouston, vice president Randy West, August Marie Wagner Richardson, and other members of the Parkside Activities Board organized this extravaganza. It was a lot of fun, and no one lost a mortgage. Eric Bates and Carl Miller of WTPZ provided tunes. Check out their shows on Saturday from Noon - 7 p.m. Bates' show is called Unleashed, and Miller, a.k.a. DJ C-Styles, plays the Variety Show. Page 5 The Ranger News February 14, 2004 Who trwy itllo Beat Around the Bush? On February 17, Wisconsin holds its primaries. Anyone can vote who is 18 or older, an American citizen, and is not in prison or on probation for a felony offense. To vote, a person must be registered. A person can register if she has been living at an address for at least 10 days. She can either register with the municipal clerk of her city, or register at her polling place; but be forewarned: this second option will probably greatly increase time spent at the polling place. To register to vote, one needs a picture l.D. Do not be intimidated by the process of voting. It is relatively easy, and one simply need find out what ward he lives in to vote. If you are not registered on the day of the primaries, you can still vote, just go to the polling place of your ward. General Wesley Clark (Ret.) www.clark04.com This former Army general graduated first in his class at West Point. He earned a Rhodes scholarship to study at Oxford and won a Silver Star in Vietnam. He commanded the Allied Forces in Kosovo, defeating Slobodan Milosevic's forces from the air, without a single Allied death. "Wes Clark's 10 Pledges" to Americans, available at his website, promises the withdrawal of troops from Iraq; maintenance of a superior military; yet reserving decisive military action only as a last resort. Governor Howard Dean www.deanforamerica.com Vermont's Governor Dean was a physician before entering politics. He served in the Vermont house of representatives before being elected to lieutenant-governor in 1986. With the death of Gov. Richard Snelling in 1991, Dean became governor, an office he has aeld ever since. This moderate cites his tight fiscal record as proof for his ability to run the country. Senator John Edwards www.johnedwards2004.com Senator Edwards, an attorney, entered politics when ie defeated an incumbent U.S. Senator, winning one of South Carolina's seats. This relatively unknown presidential hopeful is nown for standing up for the little guy. His career as a lawyer panned 20 years of litigation fighting for higher insurance company ettlements for victims. Senator John Kerry www.johnkeriy.com Senator Kerry was awarded the Silver Star, Bronze Star with Combat V, and three Purple Hearts for his service in Vietnam. He has been a U.S. Senator since 1984. Senator Kerry 's primary concern is the economy and creating three million new jobs in his first 500 days in office, but he also lists among his top issues making college more affordable. Congressman Dennis Kucinich www.kucinich.us This candidate lists as his number one priority the creation of a universal health care system with a single payer (i.e. the federal government), in order so that every American has access to health care and pharmaceuticals. His campaign symbol is a light bulb, because while mayor of Cleveland in the late 1970s, he resisted the takeover of the city's power company, saving residents hundreds of millions of dollars. , W EXPOSE TO «7U SEEEf SXVJDT t l iEOE r STUDYABROAD INFORMATION SESSIONS Thursdays at 12 :00 noon p.m. Library Room 269/271 Feb. 26, March 11, March 18th & March 25th The Center tror* Ientmern a>t*i>o nal (262) 595-2701 February 14, 2004 HEALTH & By Emily Rasbornik Thank you to all who have sent in questions! You sure have been keeping me busy. The questions / h ave been receiving have been more about healthy sex lives than exercising. With that said I want to let you know I am not promoting these types of lifestyles. I am simply answering the questions that I receive. J will keep the write-ins anonymous unless their permission is received. Here we go, keep an open mind. FIND #1 "Are condoms still good after they have been in a car freezing in subzero temperatures ail winter?" I asked the experts from Planned Parenthood ^Federation of America at www.teenwire.com., and I found condoms should be stored in a cool, dry place. Long exposure to air, heat, and light makes them more breakable. If condoms can't be stored in those temperatures I think it would be safe to say condoms are not good to use if they have been hidden in your glove box in frozen temperatures. As I was researching this question, 1 wondered if you thawed it out and saved it for a later date (pun totally intended) if it would be safe to use, but again I would have to conclude no. The editors from teenwire said that carrying condoms with you is a great idea but if you've had the same condom in your purse, wallet, or glove compartment for while, it's a good idea to exchange it for a new one because it can get to warm or cold and they tend to tear and rip more easily and frequently and then they do not reduce the risk of sexually transmitted infections or are not effective as a form of birth control. They did say you could store them in the refrigerator to prevent them from being damaged, but definitely don't use them past the expiration date regardless of where they are stored. FIND #2 "The Sunday night Sex Show talks a lot about anal sex. I have always thought that anal sex was a bad thing to do because the anus wasn't made for sex. It was made for pooping. So is it bad to have anal sex?" Is it bad to have anal sex? Hun? This seems like a moral dilemma, but T think T understood what you meant. The reason some people aren't so sure if anal sex is healthy or have a bad connotation with it is because in the past it was illegal to have anal sex in some states. Not because it was wrong, but because it spreads sickness more quickly than vaginal sex. Your right, that anus was not meant for sex, its prime function is to excrete feces...that's what it was made to do. it is made for excretion. The skin is tighter and tiny tears can occur from the penetration, tears you may not even know are there. Diseases and sickness can spread more quickly, which is why aids and other disease is more predominant in the gay lifestyle. Yes, diseases and sickness can also occur from vaginal sex; but the risk of tiny cuts is lower because skin type is different, it's more elastic. Anal sex tends to need more lube and needs to be done slower. Those are the health risks; it's up to you to decide if you're up for it or not. Also keep in mind The Sunday Night Sex Show only airs certain calls and can make it seem like a lot of people have anal sex to get the ratings. According to my source, www.sex-health, org. 35% of heterosexuals and 50% of the gay community practice anal sex.

U Page 7 e » Time For Tea? f By Alexander Wasnicwskj We are living in a period of time where our actions are of the utmost importance. I'm sure that the generations that fought in the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, WWI, and WWII thought that each was the war to end all wars. They probably thought that their actions would determine whether or not the human race would survive; however, things have changed. Technology has advanced and, as a whole, we have lagged far behind. We (or better put, the powers that be) now hold the capability to end life with the simple push of a button. We (the American populace) have willingly entered into WWIII, and as a whole we aren't even aware of it. Meanwhile we talk, we debate, and we attack those who are different from us. Many people in America believe that racism is dead, that there is no longer a distinction between classes. We forget history, we forget the lessons vvc should have learned from history lest our fate is to repeat it. We neglect to understand the reasons our standardized education system is useless; we neglect to truly see even with all this information in hand. We arc now paralyzed as a whole, incapable of action, incapable of self-reflection and examination. We speak of making the world a better place; however, our only solutions have been to drop bombs. We have forgotten the real lessons of WWII, that it was the war to end all wars. Sadly, the victims of Hiroshima and Nagasaki may have died for no reason largely because they have taught our nation nothing. As a whole, we have failed to grasp the overwhelming patterns that are occurring. The mass transfer of arms and training from the U.S. (that our economy is so dependent upon), into areas of the world such as Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, Central America, Iran, Iraq, Columbia, Uzbekistan, etc... We fail to sec (or comprehend) what is right in front of our eyes, that we have largely created our own problems. Donald Rumsficld's handshake with the vile dictator of Iraq on December 20, 1983, virtually assured us that vvc would eventually invade Iraq to recover the WMD we had transferred to them (businessmen don't really use the kiss of death, they shake hands). We search for solutions, and we have greatly limited our own civil liberties in the process. We have forgotten, or simply don't care what Mr. Franklin said about those who would willingly sacrifice their liberties for security. We march on, forward - progress can only come about through conflict, or so it is said. Survival of the fittest, dialectical indeed. Yet we are not that naive, we realize troubles arc ahead; therefore, we remain vigilant. We remain divided. We remain so involved in our daily lives, our quest to earn our fair share of that elusive pie, The Ranger News February 14, 2004 that we have neglected our most important obligation as citizens of the United States. That is, simply put the preservation of our union, the preservation of the sanctity and all that is special about America. This war in Iraq is wrong, rationalize it however you may. Yet while you are doing so, make sure not to look that recruiter squarely in the eyes. He is looking for people willing to become cannon fodder, remember this because this is America and wc arc always concerned about equality, women can also die on the front lines for a war in which vvc arc only pawns. Just sign on the line, we'll educate you on the way the real world works, just sign on the line and hand over ail you are to Uncle Sam, he'll take care of you, check his track records. This is a war for much more than oil. This is a war for no less than the preservation of The Empire, or as George Herbert Walker Bush put it so eloquently on September 11, 1991, the New World Order. All of a sudden America is concerned about those who would violate international standards of human rights; however, wc cannot even afford these same rights to detainees in Camp X-ray (US citizens included), nor the Native Americans, African Americans in our prison system, the women of our own society, the Wobblics, the Sudanese, Libyans, Japanese, Philippinos. Shall I continue or have I made my point? The hypocrisy is indeed sickening. The problem here isn't Saddam Hussein, Osama Bin Laden, WMD, Qadaffi, Columbian coco farmers, and it definitely isn't the nation of Islam. We have seen the enemy, and it is ourselves, or as Cynthia McKinney feared, we may have already become that which we so abhor. We can tell ourselves, O.K...we'11 simply vote Bush out of office, yet who will lake his place? Power does not willingly hand itself over, it must be wrested from its firm grasp. Another politician will be all too willing to take his place and continue on with the agenda set forth by the corporate oligarchy and the ''fortunate few" who truly run this show. I'm trying to be optimistic here (OK maybe not), but forces far beyond our proletarian imaginations arc working against us, the WTO, IMF, the World Bank, structural adjustment policies, international corporations, and if you please, the Bildcrbergs, Skull and Bones, the Trilateral Commission, the Council on Foreign Relations, this is what the people of the world and of America are up against Step out of line, en masse, raise your voices, be "unpatriotic," FEMA is waiting to show us that the Third Reich was simply the beginning. Is there hope? The answer is no. I am simply a liberal wacko, in a nice simple box. I'll just close the lid, and go back to life in the good old US of A. Just let me know when it's lime for tea again. What is the Patriot Act? How does it affect you? lTte Patriot Act is a revised national surveillance law that expands the government's authority to spy on its own citizens, while reducing checks and balances on those powers like judicial oversight, public accountability, and the ability to challenge government searches in court. Do you mind that the government can look through all your personal records without any probable cause? This legislation is being highly criticized for its ideology of reverting back to the McCarthyism era of spying on American citizens. The Patriot Act destroys all the accomplishments that wc obtained during the Civil Rights Era of the 60's and 70's. We, the students, are putting together a gathering where students can learn more about the legislation and how it may affect their lives. The student forum is taking place on February 16 from 3:30 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. at the library's Overlook Lounge (2nd Floor). Come learn more and voice your opinion. University Sports Super Bowl Turns Into Offensive Showdown The New England Patriots and Carolina Panthers were supposed to have a defensive battle in Super Bowl XXXVIII. The two lived up to that hype for almost the entire game, before the fourth quarter when both teams had offensive explosions. In the first quarter, both teams failed to score a point. Carolina barely gained a yard in the opening period. The Patriots had the best chance to score on an Adam Vinatieri 31 -yard field goal that was wide right. The punters were getting their best work out of the season. The Ranger News During the second quarter both offenses showed signs of life when the Patriots put up 14 points and the Panthers scored 10. Tom Brady threw two touchdowns, and Jake Delhomme threw one. John Kasay rounded out the scoring with a 50-yard field goal to end the halt. The defense of both teams took over again in the third quarter. Both teams failed to score in the quarter, and it looked as if the game was going to have a boring conclusion with both teams having a difficult time moving the ball. Then all of a sudden the game took a wild and exciting turn in the fourth quarter. The offensive power of both teams came through and the defense for both teams looked helpless. The Patriots scored 17 points in the quarter and the Panthers scored 19. The most exciting score of the game for the Panthers came on an 85-yard pass play when Jake Delhomme complet- PHOTO EXHIBIT & MOVIE Movie: Tuesday & Wednesday 8:00 PM, Union Cinema FREE!

It was the second time in three years Vinatieri had won a Super Bowl on a kick with less then ten seconds left.

Page 9 The Ranger News February 14,2004 Revenge of the Black Mamba: An Allegory Written By Bill J. Turner Edited By Tess Tobon Chapter I of VI A young biology student, attending the University of Wisconsin-Parkside was making his way home, traveling north on a-bike path. Having just crossed the county line road and nearing a horse farm with a new corral and good-looking, high, board fences, he was watching the many small animals - rabbits and squirrels mostly - that dart across the bike path. It was a beautiful September day, warm in the sunshine and cool in the shade of the tree-lined bike path. He began to hum, and then sing to himself that western folk tune; "Oh the buzzin' of the bees in the cigarette trees on that Big Rock Candy Mountain." As he was trying to remember the next line, a rabbit darted across the path in front of him - followed by the largest snake the student had ever seen outside of a zoo. He estimated seven to nine feet in length and approximately four inches in diameter at the mid section. The coloration was muted and dark - almost black, but with a dark olive green tone - more of an avocado shade that made him think: Mamba. Black Mamba. His brain, working like a fast computer, brought up on its screen all of the large snakes that he and his brother had studied, cataloged, and in a few instances had collected when they were boys. The snakes that they had been most interested in were constrictors or venomous; such as the Cobra family and the Mambas. He was sure that, due to the size and coloration of this beast, this would be a very dangerous task. He had already accepted what he must do. In his mind, considering his training and environmental background, he was left with no alternative. His mission, which he had accepted, was to capture this specimen alive, if at all possible, to determine its species, gender, and whether it had been tagged prior to release, or possibly, escape. His concern for the community surroundings were of paramount importance. He had handled reptiles, especially snakes, from about sixth grade on, both in class and out in the field. He had gained great respect for all snakes. However, these large poisonous snakes that are able to transmit a large quantity of venom are especially dangerous, due to their size and strength. In Sub-Saharan Africa, they have been known to attack Land Rovers crossing their territory. All of these thoughts flashed across his mind, similar to what he had read about near death trauma: the reports of lives flashing before eyes. He did not think that he was going to die. However, he realized that if he did not execute his plan close to perfection, he could die- here, on this bike path. This is a six-part, serialized short story.

Page 10 The Ranger News February 14, 2004 Define the Scene: "Emo" By George "DRU" Drury The purpose of the "Define the Scene" column is to shed some light onto the buzzwords that being tossed around by MTV, Rolling Stone, and any other media forum discussing the rising punk rock and indie music scene. This week's focus is on the dreaded "e" word, "EMO." History "Emo" is the most overused description in music media today, and due to its overuse, it's one of the most confusing labels in the music industry. The word started as a description of a style of hardcore punk known as "emocore." The traditional hardcore style was focused on national politics and rebelling against the system with its intensity lying within its anger. The focus of "emo" was on the personal politics with its intensity in honesty. "Emo" became the heart for the hardcore muscle, allowing fans to get even closer to musicians who, thanks to the nature of the scene, they were already close to. The hardcore scene placed musician and audience on the same level, the honesty of the "emo" sound allowed the fans to glimpse into the diaries and hearts of the bands they loved. The "emo" sound was brutally honest lyrics that were laid over melodic guitar lines. The vocalists couldn't always sing well, but that just served to convey the intense emotions even more. With the expansion of the Internet throughout the late 90's, the "emo" scene expanded as well. Live journals and chat rooms became home to "emo kids" trading the names of bands and helping each other in the same way the music helps each listener. The problem with the "emo" label is that bands don't want it, and journalists don't understand the meaning of it. Punk bands don't want it because it traps them into a style that might now always be relevant to their own lives. The confusion in the media stems from the belief that "emo" is purely short for emotional. Also, there is not a definitive sound onto which the label can be placed. So now, the "emo" label is sold as a fashion style and less as a form of musical expression. The largest problem with the name is that the most recognizable "emo" band is Dashboard Confessionals, and since they are an acoustic band, the media plays that aspect up as the designator for an "emo" band. The confusion now lies in the fact that avid TRL watchers begin to confuse the acoustic work of someone like John Mayer for genuine "emo" material. Suggested Listening To get a better grip on what "emo" really is, it's best to go back to its roots. The following albums are defining moments in "emo" history. Rites of Spring - Rites of Spring Jawbreaker - 24 Hour Revenge Therapy Sunny Day Real Estate - Diary The Promise Ring - Nothing Feels Good Weezer - Pinkerton Jimmy Eat World - Clarity Dashboard Confessionals - The Swiss Army Romance These are just a few, but they will give you an idea of the sound and intensely honest lyrics of "emo" music. For more information on the "emo" sound scene and history, check out Andy Greenwald's book, Nothing Feels Good: Punk Rock. Teenagers, and Emo. Monster By Jim Burzelic Aileen Carol WTuornos (Charlize Theron) is a down-and-out prostitute who falls in love with the lonely Selby (Christina Ricci). With this new reason to continue struggling, Wuornos tries to fix her life, but becomes a victim of circumstance, driving her to murder. Gritty and visceral, writer/director Patty Jenkins weaves a compelling narrative that evokes pity, sympathy, and understanding while still condemning the murders. She unravels Aileen and shows us the what and why of her actions, what makes the monster and what monsters can make. Charlize Theron plays the lead role of Aileen, delivering a staggering performance. Aileen's story is a tragic one, where she realizes too late that she has gone too far. Theron's dedication to the character is so realistic that one forgets they are watching a major movie star and is enwrapped by her portrayal of a sad woman in dire straights. Christina Ricci is Selby, a young and naive lesbian who befriends Aileen. While she is Aileen's savior and reason for living, she turns a blind eye to the actions Aileen commits to take care of her. Ricci's performance is subtle and effective, playing an influential and vital role in Aileen's life as motivator, conscience, and instigator all at once. Monster is a great movie. Harsh and beautiful, it's a story of spit and vinegar that enthralls and compels. ...$25,100,000 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.

Zabler Stories of life, love, and loss; partial nudity among men and women clothed in ancient Greek attire, all cast in and around a 3,000 gallon pool. It may sound to you like the last fraternity toga party you attended, but in actuality it is a description of an upcoming theatre production here at UW-Parkside. The show is entitled Metamorphosis, and was written by Northwestern University Professor Mary Zimmerman. It is an award winning production that made its first appearance on Broadway a few years ago. Metamorphosis is a compilation of Ovid's classic Greek talcs, but with a modem twist. The language in the play has been transformed to our modern era, which adds a comical tone to some of the ancient stories. The most exciting part of it is that the entire performance is set in and around a fully operational pool. As the director, Professor Dean Yohnk, stated in an interview, "It was the first swimming pool built on Broadway...and God knows this is the first time a swimming pool is being built in our theatre!" The pool is being built in the Augie Wegner Studio Theatre by a very talented crew who has faced many challenges, as would be expected with a project of this magnitude. The pool measures 12x14x3 feci, has varying depths, a hidden tunnel and will hold roughly 3,000 gallons of water. It will be equipped with a pool pump and heater to keep the water bearable for the actors and any unlucky front row audience members. After inquiring as to why Dr. Yohnk decided to include the performance in this season's list of productions, he staled that, "It's our effort to do new and exciting works." Ironically, the play is a collection of ancient works performed in a "new and exciting" way. He said he likes this play because, "It deals with humanity at its best and at its worst, and I find that fascinating. I also like the diversity of it, parts arc very funny and parts of it arc very sad; it includes a wide range of emotions". Dr. Yohnk continued to explain that the pool is a very important aspect because the water plays a large role in the play, "It is a symbol of change and transformation throughout the play." Yet the presence of water adds a whole new challenge to acting, because the actors will have to perform most of the play cold and wet. Another challenge is that the furthest audience member will be seated only three rows away from the pool's side. Dr. Yohnk said that towels will be provided for audience members in case any water should become unintentionally airborne. All of the actors in this production have been presented with the challenge of having to play various roles in each of the different stories. Therefore, Dr. Yohnk has put together a cast that has the ability to be creative and diverse because the actors arc required to play between four to eight different characters. The director does add the disclaimer that the audience members should be aware that there is some partial nudity in the show, a scene of implicated incest, and lots of wet costumes (wet equals revealing). Why would anyone not want to see this show? Dr. Yohnk replied perfectly, "How often do you get to see a playin water?!" Metamorphosis will take place in the Augie Wegner Studio Theatre on February 27, 28; March 4 at 10:00 a.m.; March 5 & 6 at 7:30 p.m. and March 6 at 4:00 p.m. The show is being directed by Dean Yohnk.

Sponsored by Student Leadership Selection Committee Page 12 The Ranger News February 14, 2004 By Emily Rasbornik I talked with my oldest sister about the white lies men and woman feed one another and she gave me an example of a guy who told his girlfriend he was going to the mail when he was really at his house playing video games with his friends. He told my sister he does this all the time. I guess I don't know what is so fun about lying. Why would anyone do this? Does society influence us to tell only part of the truth? Or is it that we should only tell the part of the truth that serves us? 1 know: if it makes us look bad or causes conflict we should keep it a secret. 1 happen to think dishonesty disconnects and creates walls in between people, especially in relationships. The truth may hurt sometimes, but it never wounds the way lies or half-truths can. I do admit, sometimes it's easier to tell half truths, but suppressing all the little untruths and avoiding confrontations, only divides us Suppressing truth limits our ability to love one another. Creating intimacy and closeness means being truthful. We all make mistakes...! mean we are human. Being humble about how you really feel on certain issues takes time. And there are certain ways of nicely and tactfully speaking the truth about how you feel. We should think about how things are said. Was the above guy his girlfriend would be sad or mad? Was he trying to avoid drama? Was he was trying to avoid hurting her feelings? Well, 1 happen to think he hurt them anyway. 1 wonder if it was worth the white lie. Does it come down to not wanting to deal with problems? Problems are a part of life. You can't avoid them. Even if you try to plan ahead, sooner or later a problem will arise. Some think they come in three's. 1 think we have problems in life to help us learn ways of dealing and helps to establish selfgrowth. •I0E S^KS: For the most part, I think that being honest can help relationship problems and create a deeper bond. If the guy who stayed and played video games told his girlfriend that he wanted to play video games with his friends and actually dealt with the fact that he felt bad or guilty about playing video games instead of spending time with her, it could have helped him feel better about hanging out. He could have simply asked her if that made her feel bad. And dealt with the problem. Another problem could have come up if the girlfriend was not willing to give him space, and that is a whole separate issue. But 1 could see her not trusting him and unable to give him space if he told white lies all the time, because she wouldn't know when to trust him...even if the issue is as small as playing video games with his friends. Knowing how to deepen your relationships is being aware of your feelings and knowing when and how to patiently, humbly, tell the Hruth of who you are. What an art. We love feedback! E-mail Emily Rasbornik at reaI757@yahoo.com or Henry Gaskins at uw_paperboy@yahoo.com. The Art of Honesty By Henry Gaskins Everything I have experienced when it comes to finding a relationship and dating in the past six months has lead me to think oppositely of the old cliche "honesty is the best policy." Hear me out on this one. Every time I tell a girl the truth, it turns her away. For instance, I w as having a flirty textmessage session with a girl the other night, and she asked what I wanted to do. I confessed what my real intentions were, and I haven't heard from her since. 1 w as close to talking my ex-girlfriend into coming back with me a couple months ago, and she asked me a critical question: "Is there anyone you know you would rather date?" I thought about it for a minute and told her the truth - that there was someone else 1 might have wanted to date, if the opportunity were to arise. At this point, 1 realized that there was no point in getting back together with my ex, and I believe this honesty was the straw that broke the camel's back on my last "real" relationship. One more exampl e of my fai 1 ed honesty: There was a girl I worked with once, in a galaxy far, far away. 1 wrote her a letter explaining my growing fondness of her and why 1 thought we might make a decent couple. (It is kind of corny, but it worked for Hugh Jackman in that timetravel Meg Ryan movie.) The girl read my letter and said, 'tHmm...I've never thought of that before." It was about three months before she communicated with me the same way she did before the letter. So what is it about raw honesty that drives women away? 1 think, possibly, women in general aren't used to guys who speak the truth in pickup lines. I've learned this can work for me or against me. "You're sexy and I want to take you home with me now" may be the truth, but I've never gotten a girl to go anywhere with me by using that approach. However, while speaking the truth candidly, with class, and usually about something the girl is interested in and comfortable talking about, I've noticed each of my possible relationships last at least ten minutes longer. I don't really know why girls haven't liked it when I've explained my honest intentions. I know most guys would love to know exactly what a girl wants (and when). And I always thought one of the most valuable traits girls look for in guys is honesty. But then again, 1 tell half of the girls 1 meet that 1 plan on walking around the planet after I graduate, which is a true intention of mine, and therefore I don't usually see marriage as a possible result of any relationship I enter. So ma}'he my take on failed honesty is a bit skewed. Either way, I'm not too worried about it, because at least I know if I'm honest, they will never get the wrong idea. Page 13 The Ranger News February 14,2004 Alarm at UW-Parkside Campus Library Sounds Every Three Minutes or So J By Tracy Medek The scene: UW-Parkside library, Level /. Students diligently studying. Circulation and Reference Desk workers tending to their duties. There is a quiet hum of computers, a soft smattering of conversation, the flutter of pages being turned. Beyond this, serenity. Then a student decides to exit the premises, it's as if an ambulance, sirens blaring, sped through the library. The studen t, surprised and puzzled, reenters. Agai n, the alarm sounds. He empties the contents of his backpack onto the checkout counter, muttering things like, "I don't have anything, just a notebook and my cell phone." His story checks out, and off he goes, triggering the alarm once again. Students make exasperated noises; workers return to their tasks, eyes glazed over with the senselessness of it all. A teacher enters, clutching books he's about to return. The alarm welcom es him accordingly. The desk worker shrugs an apology, and checks in the books. As the professor leaves, carrying nothing, th e alarm bellows its farewell. A giggling toddler wobbles through the entrance, but the alarm puts and end to her joy. The child's mother, not far behind, hurries t o scoop up the now hysterical girl and dista nce the two from the cacophony. What can we conclude from all of this? Well that's easy: Everyone who uses the campus library is a dirty, rotten thief. The alarm doesn't lie. Morose - Valentine's Day Special §].: By: Kafie Katie the horoscope lady Please note: This week 's horoscopes will be given in song titles. The song listed below your sign is a sum up of your current love situation. It should be played throughout the week of February 14th to insure lots of lovin'for you - unless its a sad love song, in which case this song will be your only company when eating the box of chocolates you purchased for yourself. Aquarius "This Bitter Pill" by Dashboard Confessional. Actually, every Dashboard song makes you want to cry your eyes out - but singer, Chris Carraba, cries in this one right along with you. A broken heart is a terrible thing, but you'll be over it soon. Scorpio "I Believe in a Thing Called Love" by The Darkness. And you do too! Ain't love grand? (Note: If this song's reference to being in "LOVE", is too strong a word for you and your other - substitute "reeeeaily really like". I believe in a thing called reeeeaily really like- Sounds just as good.) Cancer "Pink Triangle" by Weezer. I'm sorry to be the one to inform you of this news, but your gender isn't quite appealing to the person you admire. Don't feel bad, you just didn't know is all. Libra "Austin Powers Theme" from the Austin Powers Soundtrack. You don't need no lyrics! You're feeling dandy with your situation, so skip down the sidewalk and whistle this theme wherever you go. Aries "Area Codes" by Ludacris. Face it: everybody wants you - and your popularity is not limited to the South-Eastern Wisconsin area. Oh no, friend. People in Florida and Texas kiss your picture at night. You're doing something right, so keep it up. Taurus "When I'm Sixty-Four" by The Beatles. You aren't quite sure if your love plans on sticking around forever, like they promised, and you need some reassurance. Bother them with questions using this template: "Will you still love me if ?" and fill in the blank space with an unappealing characteristic that comes with old age. Do this over and over, for this is the only way you can find out for sure. Sagittarius "My Best Friend's Girlfriend" by The Cars. Did your friend already called dibs on someone that you want? Just can't seem to shake the feeling that you two were meant to be? I see a love triangle forming. I advise that you create the biggest soap opera drama of all time! Or better yet, challenge them to a duel. Or if you'd like to keep it peaceful - opt to share. I'm sure there's enough love to go around. Gemini "Milkshake" by Keiis. You may be alone, but you've chosen this status. If you decide you'd like some company, well hey- you've got your pick. Because duh, your milkshake brings all the boys to the yard. Capricorn "Toxic" by Britney Spears. This either means you are so hot that you need a warning label, or (according to the music video), your significant other plans on going on an adventure to retrieve a poison he or she will use to kill you with. If your significant other decides to cany out the video scenario, make sure they plan on following every aspect of the video: being naked and wearing only jewels is a must. Pisces "Sex Machine" by James Brown. The title speaks for itself. Carry on. Virgo "f Don't Want To Wait" by Paula Cole. You g et the Dawson's Creek theme! This could be good or bad actually. Watch the next episode of Dawson's Creek: If Joey is with Pesci, love is coming your way. If she's with Dawson, you've got a long wait ahead. Leo "Please Don't Go Girl" by New Kids on the Block. Your beloved won't stay even if you beg them. It's the sad truth. Prepare for the lonely nights by adding your profile to every dating website you can fmd. People really do find love on the internet. Right? I think. Well, actually nevermind. What am I talking about? Just listen to the sons. Page 14 The Ranger News February 14, 2004 • Soring Break #1 Spring Break Vacations!
