Lysistrata's title character, played by Jr. Catherine Apilado, agreed that "a lot of [Lysistrata] is about sex;' but like many of life's aspects there are multiple levels, . "The story is timeless," said Apilado, "Because there have been wars since the beginning of time." The play, which takes place in 2411 A.D. amid warring sectors of the population, is about the struggle of women to end the continuous warring of men because they are fed up with the fighting and death. Lysistrata, whose own father died in battle, organizes the women and "tells them that they need to give up sex in order to stop the .men from fighting," said Apilado, who characterizes Lysistrata as "A temptress" with a bizarre twist of "Southern Belle" and "ditzy Valley Girl." Toprepare for the role Apilado was specifically instructed to envision Hollywood screen legends Sophia Loren and Vivian Leigh, who's best known for her portrayal of Scarlet O'Hara in Gone With the Wind. "It's a very visual show in terms of costumes and colors;' said Apilado, which includes fire-eating, outrageous hair, a sexually suggestive stage, and skimpy wardrobes, which Apilado admitted can be "a little challenging" to deal with. She also said that there are "some interesting visual effects that you'll have to come to see." Comedy in the play comes by way of the situations that various characters get placed into and the ad-libbing encouraged by the play's director, Dale Calandra, who also co-wrote the adaptation, which is based off an original play composed by Greek playwright Aristophanse in 411 B.C. The ad-libbing promises to keep the performances Continued on pag, 3 The RangerFest: A spring open house at Parkslde Tyrone A Payton Co-opinion Page Editor I thas been 3 years since Parkside has had a Spring Open House for the student population, but Saturday, April 21st, the school will rekindle this event and christen it the RangerFest. "The RangerFest is about school spirit here at Parkside;' said UW-Parkside Admissions Counselor Johnrae' Stevenson. The gala spectacle starts at noon and lasts until 4 p.m., and it will showcase interactive sites for the student population beginning in the Union Bizarre and stretching across the campus main level to Main Place. Some of the student club sponsored highlights will be the meringue and salsa dance demonstration displayed by Latinos Unidos and the scavenger hunt made possible by the Black Student Union to coax RangerFest participants to explore all the sites.

Plus, Kiss FM is bringing along their infamous Kiss PM Cash Kube, where it could be an early tax return bonus for some students, as they are trapped in the box with the chance to sweep up some extra dough that is flying around inside. A possible even bigger bonus for all participants is the trip for one lucky individual and a guest to Times Square and the MTV Studios for a free tour sponsored by Time Warner Cable. These are probably some of the grandest features at RangerFest, but there is plenty more sites to mention. The Information Services will construct an Internet cafe, where students can enjoy coffee with their computer web browsing. Not to forget, the Peer Health Educators will be mixing up some mocktails, non-alcoholic beverages, for those festivalgoers who want to come off their coffee kick. Also, the Theater of Empowerment will be practicing their thespian skills with a special performance on a series of different conflict scenarios. Other facilities that will be there are the Nursing Programs blood pressure testing exhibit and the Geology Departments interactive display on water. Admissions Counselor Nicole Sturino best put the RangerFest when she said, "We want to showcase the physical beauty of the campus, showcase our programs and our people, and show what we offer." Well, all of these interactive sites will be at RangerFest for all participants to capitalize on each site's experience, and these are just the beginning of what RangerFest has to offer. The sex play is coming continued. fresh. The ad-libbing already occurring during rehearsals "Is really funny" according to Apilado, "It's different every night." She also counts her opportunity to work with the play's writer as very rewarding because "You !l.etto know their every vision' and "you know exactly what's going on." No! There is no nudity. The play's sexually related content should not shock viewers because "Wenever go too far" said Apilado, Calandra would not allow it. "It is very sexual, but it's fun at the same time" according to Apilado, "There's a lot of innuendos," but nothing graphic. "[Lysistrata's] goal is peace" said Apilado, who points out that "withholding sex from the men" is a means of achieving her goal. Sex is just one aspect of the play but it is not the main point.

This doesn't mean you should skip the spicy enchilada special at your favorite Mexican restaurant (if you don't have one then you should go find one!) but you certainly can't be faulted for looking a little more at the long view. Give yourself time to put your feet up and toss around some worst-case scenarios- ever if it's just for grins.

I haven't met an Aquarian yet who doesn't love to pop a bright, stupid balloon- its Just part of the .whole package. However, while puncturmg the dreams of morons is such a satisfying sport, it is not always the correct course of action. Sometimes it's better to...just. ..walk ...away.

In between moments that make each day annoying there are those precious seconds when you stretch JOur arms, breathe dee\" an know, that whatever you re about to embark on is going to work. The most promise lies particularly in the more (ahem) carnal areas. Libra September2~tober22 It's spring-get outside! Grab a book, a bottle of wine, your syringes or whatever it is you play with and get in the sunshine! Then again, I'm being US centric; if the weather is crap where you are just drink more heavily and it will all be good. Scorpio October 23-November 21 Break out the pots, pans and those strange little kiteben gad gets- its time to go Iron Chef baby! You can do a lot in a kitchen, even if you don't know a whisk from baster, a half pound of fresh chervil from an ounce of tripe. When you're cooking you can focus and let the worries just drift away. Food you cook often tastes better and you can certainly impress those around you with a home-cooked meal. (We're talking MAJOR bonus P9ints .here guys) SagIttarIUs November 22-December 21 We all want to make massive changes in our lives (well, MOST of us do, the rest are just insane) and its always hard to admit that things Just won't happen overnight. Even the best plastic surgery takes weeks to fully heal, so don't think that anything will happen overnight. Take your time, be committed to what you want to achieve and don't think about the end goal. You'll get all bent out of shape that xou haven't reached your goal if you worry day to day- and unless you're trymg to get into shape for an Olympic gymnastics team that's probably not what you really want. Aries March 21-April19 So much information, so little time, so much of a headache. Let's be honest- the information overload is getting insane of late. Take some time to stop absorbing every little bit of news, data and other April 19, 2001 stuff around you. I'm not encouraging you to embrace ignorance, but look where It got our President! Also- the next time someone asks what your best interpersonal skill is, remember not to say' "emotional blackmail." Taurus April 2Q-Mary 20 . Send in the clowns. Seriously. Add an extra dash of humor to your life in the weeks to come and you'll benefit greatly. Things are usually crappy m everyone else's life, so if you can make people laugh they'll love you for it. Don't feel that you have to go the class clown route, but if you feel the urgerock and roll. Gemini May 21-June 21 You know that a little imagination in life is good,but you don't have to go whole-hog on it. Many things in life you CAN take on a certain amount of faith without having to wrestle with it. You know that if you put a hamster in the microwave you'll get a big, wet pop- you don't have to test that theory. While that might be a tad extreme, you get the idea. Cancer June 22-July 22 You're quick, bright and you know what you're after. In a crowd of people, you stand out with your smooth moves and decisive actions. People sway before your opinions and tremble at your rage. You're also susceptible to flattery and need to watch out for that this month. Leo July 23-August 22 The opinions of others will always be something of a thorn . in your side. You can try to patiently walk someone through the logic of your ideas but if they don't want to list~ you might as well be trying to explain foreign politics to our new President. Instead, just relax- the odds are that the person you're arguing with will have something bad happen to them soon enough. Take some time to dip your toes in the water. Virgo August 23-September 22 Did you swing around likea ballerina on crarik last month? Did you take life by the short hairs .and make it dance? Oh well, there goes YOUR chance.

The prospective candidates presented themselves to all Circle K members present and were subject to any questions they wished to ask. Then two representatives from each club voted. It was at this convention that current Parkside Circle K president, Nathan Hunter, was elected to be the new Lt. Governor for the southeastern Wisconsin area.

Bush throwing out the first pitch and a national anthem that featured a bald eagle flying through the stadium the city of Milwaukee was finally able to' enjoy opening day at MillerPark on April 6. The Brewersbeat the Cincinnati Reds 5-4 in front of 42,024 spectators. The game was won on an eighth-inning home run by Richie Sexson, making the game even more memorable. As Brewers Manager Davey Lopes told the Journal Sentinel, "Youreally couldn't write a better script. ' Miller Park will serve as the cornerstone of the Brewers rebuilding process, with several restaurants, stores and other attractions. Much has been said about the retractable roof, which means no more .rain delays, something fans will appreciate. All of these features will help to generate necessary funds for the small-market Brewers, enabling them to compete with teams such as the New YorkYankees. According to University of Wisconsin-Parkside student Chris Peters, his first impression of Miller Park was one of amazement. "I couldn't believe how big that £Iace was," said Peters. The roof will be great when they get the leaks fixed. Still, it's good to know that the games will be played no matter what the weather is like." The first thing fans will notice when they enter the stadium is that the majority of the seats are located behind home plate and along both baselines. "Miller'Park is so much more fan friendly than County Stadium," said Peters. "Everything is designed to focus your attention on the game." While Miller Park offers the fans a variety of attractions some of the die-hard Brewer fans will miss County Stadium. "Nothing will ever replace Bernie Brewers chalet and the beer barrel in the outfield," said Peters.

They-have their informative kindergarten teacher, Ms. Keane, who treats all of her students with a healthy dose of knowledge. There is also Sara Bellum, who is the intellectual secretary to the Mayor, and who is obviously smarter than the puny, senile Mayor is. The distinct name choices are evident of how McCracken wants even these mature female heroines to be in the eyes of the youth; as strongly independent, capable of their own skills, and bright among all things. Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup are truly ideal role models for today's youth, as little boys will grow up respecting their female friends, and girls will understand that they too 'can become brilliant and reach eminence in the big world awaiting them. Even older "kids" can learn a lesson or two in how to respect one another and enjoy each other's company from these youngsters. Who knows, the Powerpuff Girls could even cure the cooties in the playground. the I?resent children of today and into the latter part of generation X. It's also more than one gender that is in love with these tykes, for these kids have guys and gals across America under their charm. The producer, Genndy Tartakovsky, creator of Cartoon Network's infamous Dexter's Laboratory, saw a revolution of cartoons in PPG. The girls do battle with a colorful array of supervillians from the intellectually mad monkey, Mojo Jojo, to the hillbilly hick furrball, Fuzzy Lumpkins, to the androgynous, demonic evil entity, "Him:' and even topple gigantic, despicable monsters that tower above the Townsville skyscrapers. By outsmartmg these grownup spawn of wickedness, the PPG save Townsville time after time, while still attending school, being creative, laughing with other children, helping in the community, and being responsible and respecting children to their surrogate father figure. Not only do they have the Professor as a father figure; they also have ment. Particularly, the capitalizing efforts of the Cartoon Network have popularized three little eight-year-olds into colossal superstars. From reality to fantasy, women in society have gone from French war hero, Joan of Are, to U.S. women's rights activist, Susan B.Anthony, to the phenomenal Powerpuff Girls (PPG). With sugar, spice, and every thing nice, and the accidental addition of the experimental chemical X, Professor Utonium of the fictional cartoon city of Townsville gave birth to Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup. Together with their new dynamic powers from chemical X and the general sweetness provided by the former ingredients, Professor Utonium created the perfect little girls. The cartoon concocted by its true professor, cartoonist, Craig McCracken, has taken the market world by storm. The three tiny titans have seemingly appealed to a span of generations from are becoming the embodiment of these role models.

The bench players also stepped up, such as Darvin Ham and Scott Williams. The Bucks are known as a unpredictable, and most of all a good team. Last week the Bucks were second in scoring, third in free throw I?ercentage, fifth in three point percentage and seventh in field Sports Reporter L ast year when Travis Best of the Indiana Pacers hit that three pointer that knocked the Milwaukee Bucks out of the first round of playoffs, it must have gotten to those Bucks. This year the Bucks not only are in the playoffs again, but have won the Central Division title for the first time in over 15 years. Since the start of the 2000- 2001 NBA season the Bucks were even favored to win the Eastern Conference. The reason why the Bucks were favored is because Alonzo Mourning of the Miami Heat was side1ine with a kidney disordered (now Mourning is back to playing), New York Knicks were too small, and the Indiana Pacers not only lost Coach Bird, but also lost three starters, and veteran Chris Mullin. Unfortunately, for the Bucks, they started this season sloppy. Their record into the start of the season was 3-9. Then the Bucks started to get scoring from Glenn Robinson (Big Dog) Robinson, Ray goal percentage. The Bucks are one of the few teams in the NBA that don't turn the ball over. .In a phone interview John Ehlenbeck, Public Relations Intern for the Milwaukee Bucks said,"The last time the Bucks won a Central Division title was in the. 1985-1986season." The Bucks seem to just be on the winning track. Of course, for the Bucks to advance far into the playoffs, they need the "Big Three" to step up with huge scoring. The Big Three are Ray Allen, Sam Cassell, and Glenn Robinson. Already this year the Big Three have pushed the Bucks past the 42-win mark for the first time since 1991. They even account for 60 percent of Bucksi scoring. Sam Cassell is averaging 18 points a game, ranking eighth in assists (7.6), ana 15th in shooting percentage (48.5 percent). Cassell also recorded his career high game with 40 points. Ray Allen is one of the NBA's pure shooters and he's great at the three's. His career high game is 42 points. Glenn Robinson just does everything. His career high game is 45 points. Ehlenbeck said, "Yeah, the Big Three will be a huge factor in the playoffs. The Bucks need these guys to win games." Ehlenbeck then stated, "The Bucks have had tremendous help from the bench. When one of the Big Three is injured, the bench steps up. These three need to step up as well as the bench." Regular season of the NBA came to an end this week, now it's time to watch those Bucks, hopefully, bringing a NBA Championship to the state of Wisconsin. "We don't know ticket prices yet because it varies, but the playoffs start April 21. The Bucks could flay either Saturday, April2 or Sunday, April 22, " said Ehlenbeck. From left to right: Ray Allen, Sam Cassell, and Glenn Robinson of the Milwaukee Bucks (#2 s~) are poised. to take on the Orlando Magic (#7 seed) in the first round round of the 2001 NBA Playoffs.

Easterling was charged last Friday witfi beating a custodian and robbery. According to the Kenosha News Easterling, 22, was arrested for allegedly stealing pizzas from a gas station in Ifie early morning hours of April 4. While Easterlin15 was m jail police found evidence linkin!,l him to the attack of the custodian. Easterling is accused of wearing a mask like the one in the movie "Scream'" du.ring the attack on the custodian and allegedly trying to break into an Automated Teller Machine in the Student Union. If convicted Easterling could face up to 77 years in prison and $60,000 in fines. Dean of Students Steve McLaughlin said that there is going to be a student discipli- nary hearing al the University when the police reports are fin- ished. Easterling could face sus- pension or expulsion. A suspen- sion would mean that he would not be admitted into the Univ_ersity for 2 years. An expul- s10n would be for an indefirute amount of lime. The student would have to appeal in order to return to the University. According to the Kenosha News, campus police found the ATM broken into on the morn- ing of April 2. The custodian was found shortly alter in a restroom with his feet bound and arms tied behind his back with black plastic straps. The custodian told police that he was cleaning when two people wearing "Scream• maslcs entered and put a gun to his head. The two men ordered him to get on the floor and told him that if he wasn't quiet, they would kill him. An officer received an anonymous tip that Easterling might have been involved. A roommate showed the police a bag that Easterling had given him. The officers found a "Screrun" mask and black plastic tics. The custodian, who has asked to remain anonymous, was taken to a nearby hospital, where he received stitches in his ear and was released.

I feel ihat there should be more opportunities for discussion am~ classmates about these issues said Liz Jordan, a UW-P sophomore. ____ Ju_lie Thompson __ During the Ja,,i weekend in March, several UW-P students and faculty members converged al Riverbend Nature Center to discuss issues related to race, and lo hopefully learn more about their fellow UW-P students. The second annual Talking OJ/or Retreat was orgaru7.ed by Eng- lish Department Senior Lecturer, Chris Christie and UW-P seruor and PSGA Ptesident, Joseph Rucker with help from Christie's Ethnic Studies 290/490 students. Although some retreat attendees arrived with feelings of anxiety about being filmed while others arrived with questions about race., Chris Christie's biggest concern was that the group would be too timid to dlscuss such powerful issues. But when all was said and done, the overall reaction to the weekend's events was positive. 'The retreat was a welcome forum to interact with people of other ethnic h,,ckgrounds said UW-P senior, Ray Sanchez. "I learned a lot. We each had a totally different outlook.

Its members have been planning the whole year to get the chance to sponsor their club and their Asian ethnicity this April, which is Asian Awareness month here at Parkside. Most of the planned events are still left for the end of this month, but students may have already caught a glimpse of Asian culture when a vendor shop was set up in Upper Main Place from Tuesday, April 3 to Thursday, April 5. The vendor shop was decorated with numerous items including cell phone cases, eyeglass pouches, pillow cases, bool< bags, colorful stuffed snake, turtle, and lizanl ornaments, and numerous other sacks, satchels, packs, and pUr'..CS. For those three days, PAO representatives manned the vendor booth, as they sold over $500 in native goods that were manufactured m Thailand by Laotian workers, acco~ to PAO president Ymg Vang. t;'.ach of these products were 1,cautifully adorned as many of the pouches and bags were garnished with "pansdaos, an Asian form of embroidery," said Pakou Vang, one of Parkside's new student senators in the Parkside Student Government Association. On Wednesday, the booth operators gave a surprise as many dressed up in Hmong clothes. Pakou said these clothes "basically consist of a shirt, a _blouse, some jewelry, and_ c~m bags of Laotian design. The vendor shop is just the beginning of more upconung events. On Thursday, April 19th, an Asian comedy troop called Stir Talking Color continued munching on homemade brownies and cookies. Bickham came equipped with plastic cups and multi-colored oeads. Each f>articipant was asked to place the appropriate colored bead into a plastic cup depending on the partic• 1pant's answer. For example, if the participant's physician is white, he or she placed a white bead in their cup. If the partici· pant's physician is Asian, he or she placed a tan bead in their cup. At the end of the exercise, all participants examined their beads to determine if the participant Includes pwple of d iver.;¢ l>~unds into their lives. The Theatre of Empower• ment, led by Communication Department Professor, Jonathan Shailor, ended the evening with students re-enacting events from their past that involved racial discrimination. It was a painful, eye-opening experi• encc for most. -When we were forced to act out, or see someone else act out the 1'31'1 of a bigot, although it was hard to do and see, it was necessary so we could see issues from the black view• point" Struebing stated.

The rest of us would try to determine what the subject was trying to convey, which helped give us an insight we dian't fiave, but it also gave us, as su~ jects, an insight into how others perceived us." Unfortunately, although Rucker and Christie made numerous attempts to attract students, the number of partici• pants was low. "I was let down and so was Chris Christie. This type of retreat is critical. It opens up a whole new avenue ol Jeamm17, and is a powedul ex~riencc,' stated Rucker. Also, Friday, April 20th, the PAO will be sponsoring a dance in the Union Square from 9:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m. On Monday, April 23rd, there will al.so be a social located in the Den from 12:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m., but the month isn't done yet An Asian ethnic dancer, SeulGhcz'.:s reaction to the low turnout was similar, '1he group was small, and some of us were less represented than others as far as numbers went, but the messages were clear, and we proved that the silence could be broken. I'd really like to see this kind of retreat become more well established, a venue that allows barriers to be crossed even briefly." Yet, despite low turnout, Christie wasn' t deterred as she carried out a final exercise. She instructed participants to divide according to race and then to prepare a list of questions that each wanted to ask the other race, an exercise she called, "fishbowl".

It seemed that the majority of the staff was getting into this new Red Bull cnergy ilrink. You may have seen the com- mercials w,th its clever cartoon illustrations and clipping catch phrase, "Red Bull gives you wii- ,ngs!" Well, it seems from wordof-mouth, my Brcwmasters facility has found a new adrenaline zapped resource to keep them catapulted into a state of readiness, because the Red Bull epidemic spread fast. That Fnday, two weeks ago, was the day Red Bull eradicated my physical and mental health for the entire nij;ht spanning into the next evening. Around 7 p.m., 1 chugged the cylindrical Junkie drinlcand waited to see if my patience would be rewarded. Unbeknownst to me, Red Bull was about to take me on a day and a half of pure roller coaster insanity. This silver and blue can dispenses a shade of tan liquid that is similar to a real bull's hide. This liquid tastes like smashed Skittles, but unfortunately is over• powered in its .after taste by the carbonic acid. It states on the can that this elixir will increase endurance and reaction speed, but is not intended for the caffeine sensitive. lhat was the catch live. After alL like most college students, I enjoy the regular cup of coffee. Well, Red Bull is a far shot from your ordinary coffee. Heck, I'd consider ii a galaxy away from a simple espresso shot. This liquid crack kept me ' up forever. 1 call it liquid crack, because of its unfortunate side effects. My hypersensitivity to caffeine was evoked by this strange concoction. I fowtd myselI completing homework that was due wecl<s away from this tl.me of ron~umpliun and cleaning my room more thoroughly than a French maid.

They expressed an interest in working on more projects with the Parkside Communi'}'. Outreach Club (PCOC).

Put your spare hours to good use by becoming a sexual assault health advocate. Advocates go through train- ing to become more eaucated about sexual assault. There are five 3-hour training sessions required to be an advocate. In these sessions, volunteers are taught how to help assault victims, their families and friends. Future advocates learn the emotions behind assault, what the victim is feeling, the procedures they will go through in the examination room, and some of the legal procedures the family can follow to prosecute the offender. When an advocate is called, they go to the hospital after someone has been raped, molested, or sexually assaulted and act as an advocate". Advocates help family mem- bers cope with what their loved one is going through and explain to tfiem what Ifie vic- tim will be going through when at the hospital. Advocates also help explain to family members fhe emotions they and the victim may feel, and that what they are feeling is normal. Having an advocate at the hospital tielps the victim and their family to feel that they are not alone. Advocates are there for support, to answer questions on the procedures the victim goes through, and help them learn to cope. One example would be that many victims recoil when touched by fa.mlly members after being assaulted. Advocates are there to explain to them that this is a normal reaction and is not because of anything they did. When on call, advocates have a phone with them for a 12-hour period. Shifts range from morning, night or all day. They are allowed to sleep during the 12 hours. The requirement is just to be able to drop everything and get to where they are needed. There are monthly meetings to catch up and refresh on what is happening. April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month. There will be a peace walk on April 29th, details are still in the making on where it will be held. There will be bands, a Walk for Peace and speakers. To find out more, visit the Womyn's Center on campus. You may also call Moira Kalichman at 399-0625 and le.ive a message. If you or anyone you know has been assaulted and wants help, or just wants to talk, call the assault hotline at 637-7233. i"he one -th,n9 B<>.-f vv,o,v-'s- u+: 1;;y be\\ dc,e5vi't do ; 14 ee r' 1-\; s f0"+5 vf'.

Inside the marooned vehicle were Glorianna Daggy, 79, and Rose Bruno, 88. The students, Joseph Donnerbauer and David Place, both Parkside j0l;igers, waded through the chilly water to pull the women out of the car. "I didn't have a choice" said Place. After three trips to get the women, their walkers, and a blanket from the back of the vehicle, the two students wrapped the ladies in the blanket and offered the shirts off their backs to keep the women's feetwarm. The women had been stranded on the flooded bridge for approximately an hour, and claimed they saw three other cars come down to the bridge and turn back. -"I figured any decent person would have came out and helped:' remarked Donnerbauer. "You'd think a person would have some feelings inside." As Donnerbauer comforted the ailing victims, Place ran to dial 911. Fortunately Joseph KickIer and his family were approximately 100 yards away. Fickler was completely unaware of the ladies' distress call,but when Placepleaded for help, Fickler and his wife, Julie, and his daughter and son, Stephanie and Christopher, Peek under the covers The Ranger News exposed Sarah Olsen Co-Editor~in-Chief All work and no play makes for a boring newspaper. As you can see from the r.hoto, the staff found time to 'play" after conferences and seminars while in San FranCISco. "I think my favorite part of the trip was getting to ~ee our staff in an 'out of office SItuation" says Design Manager Pete Forchette. "And who could forget Aunt Charlie's, the drag queen show?" That's right, a drag queen show. I had the rare op,Bortunity to compete in the 'Queen for a Night" contest and managed to come in a close second. "I learned- never to' mix drag S1ueenswith Raspberry Stoley said Christine Agaiby, advertising manager. "All you get is a severe hangover and some interesting photos" (look inside for photos from the show). The conference was a unique experience for the staff not only because they were able to learn a great deal of informationabout the newspaper business, but because they had the opportuni ty to learn more about each other.

As Place took the garments back to the women to help keep them warm, Fickler and his familyraced their vehicle over to a nearby gas station to dial 911. After Somers rescue squad members arrived on the scene to escort the two ladies to Aurora Healthcare center, the Pickler family offeredthe two heroes a seatin their car to try to warm them up. The two women are home safe today and say they hold the highest respect for the two student heroes that carne to their aid. "Parkside joggers Joseph Donnerbauer (left) and Davey Place (right) stand on the bridge where the rescue took place. Newspaper staff creates legacy for journalists Sarah Olsen Co-Editor-in-Chief The staff of The Ranger News returned from the National College Newspaper Convention Sunday, March 25th prepared to toss tradition and custom out the window. Armed with enthusiasm and newly acquired knowledge, the staff is working to transform The Ranger into the true voice of the student body by ushering in a new legacy of journahsm at Parkside. The first order of business to be performed upon returning to Parkside was to shock the reporters at the regular Monday meeting. "1 told the reporters that the newspaper sucks, but we now have the ability to change 'that" says Sarah Olsen, co-editor-inchief. "We did not know how to properly run a newspaper· before, but that is not the case anymore." Staff members are busy sharing the knowledge they learned at the conference and training a team to take over the newspaper next year. Attendants of the regular Monday meetings are taking part in seminars designed to help writers become better journalists. The reporters are learning basic journalism skills such as how to write a better headline and how to get a good interview, with more information on the way. In addition to implementing new training techniques, the staff has been restructured and new positions have been created. The staff is recruiting journalists, investigative reporters, cartoonists, political analysts, design and layout managers, and opinion essayists who are willing to be innovative and take risks. The most obvious change to the newspaper is apparent in the new layout designed by Forchette. "In order to be able to compete with other newspapers, the design needed to become more innovative, daring, original, and fun" says Porchette, who attended several seminars where he was Continued on page 5 .~-~- ..........

ByBrenda Dunham One night Christine, Sarah, and I went for dessert at Mel's Diner. Our waiter asked where we were from, and when I responded with "We're from Wisconsin" he laughed and repeated "Wes-KONsin?!" Apparently, we all have accents - ken ya imagen that, eh? Westarted taking notice of our Canadian accents and quickly became the butts of our own jokes. I, however, won the award for "Most Predominant WesKON-sin Accent." Don't ya know that San Francisco doesn't have cows, unless it is a statue in front of Hard Rock Cafe? Just to warn you if you go to San Francisco don't be asking for a Tyme machine. People will think ya're literally nuts. San Franciscans don't have bubblers, they drink from water fountains. They also don't have soda, they drink pop. If'n ya ken remember the lingo you'll be better off than us, and maybe you won't even be laughed at. As ya can imagen its good to be horne were the way I talk doesn't stand out so much. However I'll have to be putting my cote (coat) and boo-uts (boots) back on. The Walking Germ By Dan White b Unfortunately, I ended ul?, emg "the walking germ' because I caught a cold due to the change ill the climate. Although 1was sick for a good portion of the trip I did manage to attend the seminars. I also managed to give a cold to another member of the group and who knows how many other people! I learned many keys to maintaining the funds of the newspaper, successful advertising strategies, and to not blow your nose with hotel Kleenex (it really hurts after too many blows!) Hopefully, the techniques I learned will keep the newspaper healthy - unlike myself! "When in Rome, do as the Romans" By Pete Forchette During the normal school day, it is not uncommon for people to hear me quote a song, poem, or movie. But while in San Francisco, I found myself saying a quote in particular more than any other - "While in Rome, do as the Romans." Now, don't get carried away, as I certainly didn't, I assure you. But one can't help but notice how different things are away from Keno-where (Kenosha). One of the very first things that struck me as odd was the ride from the airport in San Francisco to our hotel downtown. We were graciously escorted by our taxi cab driver, first tluough a red and blue gang war zone, and then past a popular transsexual prostitution comer. Now, you Just can't find those kind of things in your backyard around here .: The next morning I awoke to the hustle and bustle of the city life below me. Hills made of buildings and houses dictated the movements of all the sports cars, buses, and trolleys that crawled along its alleys. The wildlife we encountered along the- way later that week also made me stop and think. The waiter at the Hard Rock Cafe got us all "rowdy," a metallic robot man was passing out candy to strangers for spare change. And who could forget about Aunt Charlie, the eccentric, cross-dressing drag queen? -- So, as you can see I had plenty of reasons for blurting out my quote of quotes during my adventure ill Rome, I mean San Francisco. And in case you were wondering, no, I didn't leave my heart there. The Bitch By Sarah Olsen Sometimes in life we are forced to assume a role that is not our usual disposition. While in San Francisco, I became "The Bitch" of the group - not to my group, just to those who got in my way. The first time my temper was tested was when we arrived in St. Louis for a layover. After a quick bite to eat, we headed to the ticket counter ready to embark on our connecting flight to the golden city. Imagine our surprise when the snippy flight attendant announced, "Your plane already left." Immediately my hand flew to my hip and my inner bitch was unleashed. "What do you mean our plane left? We still have at least one minute before the .plane is supposed to depart!" Needless to say, we are not seasoned travelers and this experience has laught us a valuable lesson regarding time management. After an extended layover, and an impossibly long flight, we finally arrived at the hotel, 6 a.m, Wisconsin time, 4 a.m. San Francisco time. We trudged to the counter, ready to welcome some Holiday Inn hospitality. The gentleman at the counter punched our names into the counter and promptly announced, "We do not have your rooms anymore." Now, I am not normally a horrible person, but our little friend at the counter would swear otherwise. "What do you mean we don't have a room?" I asked, as a deadly caIm settled over the lobby. I'm not sure what happened next, but according to first-hand accounts, my eyes glowed red, my head spun in circles on my neck, and the man at the counter suddenly found two available rooms. Tour Guide Barbie By Christine Agaiby "Rise and shine everybody, we have a busy day ahead of us and we can t just waste the day in bed now, can we?" You may think it's easy_ always being the peppy, energetic one, but maybe you should try waking up four crab-asses used to sleeping in until afternoon class. On the agenda for the first day, we started with breakfast at Ghiradelli Square where I forced scalding posh coffee down their tluoats. I wanted lively group members at the meetings, not sleep)' ones. After the morning conferences we had lunch in Chinatown where I forced them to eat crab rangoons. No one was going to be Jicky about trying new foo on this trip; I didn't care if ther were allergic to shellfish. then quickly ushered them into the trolley headed towards Fisherman's Wharf where we utilized brief photo opportunities. I had something truly special planned for the evening. We sang and danced, mingling with the best of the locals at Aunt Charlie's, a drag queen hot spot. All this and more, packed into one exhausting day. Besides planning every detail of the trip, I was also responsible for translating for the WesKon-sinite, soothing the germ, taming the Roman, and calming the bitch._ As you can see, we truly did succeed in doing it all on this trip and still made it to all our meetings without a problem. I hope you've all enjoyed reading about our wonderful experience and have found the trip 'to be as fascinating as we did. It was great having you along as you ventured through our grand voyage to San Francisco. B'bye now. B'bye, B'bye. B'bye, now. B'bye. Are they lone yet. ..are thJ::Jlkne? Goo ,my cheeks are . . g me. I really can't smile this much anymore. Can I take a break now? Just a little break? Great. WHAT'S ON YOUR RESUME?

March 8, 2001 Go ahead and spoil yourself with Chaco/at Lynn Garcia Staff Reporter C hoco/at, nominated for Best Picture, takes place in a small French village. Almost everyone in the community is religious and does not allow themselves to enjoy the pleasures of life. The mayor, Comte de Reynaud (Alfred Molina), literally runs the village. The young priest has to have his sermon looked at and approved before he preaches it to the village people. It's almost as if the mayor is God. Vianne Rocher (Juliette Binoche) and her daughter, Anouk arrive in the village and open a chocolate shop just in time for Lent. They are immediately looked down upon since they do not attend church and are tempting people during such a sacred time. Vianne keeps her chin up and befriends her landlady, Armande Voizen (Judi Dench), who feels as if she is all alone in the world. Armande's daughter will not speak to her or allow her to see her grandson. Vianne tries her best to keep her business afloat. She gives out free sampies and soon the customers return for more. In the meantime some river rats arrive and the mayor tries to run them out of town. Vianne hires Roux to do some handy work around the shop. This doesn't sit well with the Mayor and he comes up with a plan to get rid of Vianne. Comte de Reynaud gets sick of everyone spoiling themselves with chocolate so he writes a sermon telling the village people that Vianne is Satan and that her sweet treat is like the forbidden fruit. Will the community listen and not return to Vianne's shop or will the people continue to indulge in the chocolate? I strongly suggest seeing this film. Itis absolutely fantastic. The performances are superb and the story is thoroughly enjoyable. I hope that the film is recognized and takes at least one Oscar home. Kenosha native, Mark Ruffalo, stars in award-nominated You Can Count on Me Tyrone A. Payton Staff Reporter Kenosha native, Mark Ruffalo, got his first Significant movie recognition in this winter's You Can Count on Me. Viewers might recognize Ruffalo from UPN's "The Beat." He has currently been preoccupied with his recent fame from his portrayal of Terry, a easy come-easy go charmer who visits his older sister to reflect upon his current dead-end life. His sister, Sammy, played by Laura Linney, IS a divorced mother with a son of 8 who is involved with a man who doesn't excite her, Bob, and a new boss she can't stand to work with on any level. Linney; was honored for her portrayal of Sammy this year, as she was norrunated for Best Actress by the Academy of Motion Pictures. The story opens up with the audience being introduced to Sammy and Terry's parents, as they are heading home in the middle of a rainstorm. Then the audience is immediately introduced to Sammy and Terry, as we see them at their parents' funeral from the crash they encountered with a semi that night. The beginning is a little flat to start with, but then the movie fast forwards to the children when they are older and on their own. Terry has been leading a reckless life and decides to rekindle his relationship with his sister, Sammy, and her son, lems with her new boss, played by Matthew Broderick, though. Broderick is in constant disturbance over he authority that Sammy has over him with the workers on her side. It seems as ifthese tow can't agree upon anything, but out of their pent up range must have ignited a spark between them. Soon Sammy is having an affair with her boss, and both her and Terry are back to reliving their old lives when they were wild teens. The rekindling of these siblings brings back their rowdy behavior, but also awakens them to their respective dependence on each other. They fill the void in each other's lives where there is no happiness. In the end, Laura Linney and Mark Ruffalo, In a scene from You each comes to this concluCan Count on Me.

Choco/at is nominated for Best Picture and tells the story of a young woman whose enchanted sweets awaken passion In a staid French village. Rush is a triumph and another Oscar nominee Tyrone A. Payton Staff Reporter Quills is the latest feature starring Geoffrey Rush, in which he pulled off another stellar performance to his prior award-winning act in Shine. As you may recall, Rush was awarded best actor back in 1998 when the controversial subtraction of Leonardo DiCaprio was left off the voting roster. This year he is nominated again -for his portrayal of the Marquis de Sade, the late 18th century, French, pornographic author. The movie features other phenomenal displays of acting by Joaquin Phoenix as the Abbey Cloutier, Kate WirISlet as the laundry wench, Madeline, and Michael Caine as the officer of corrections, Corrder. Caine, who was last year's winner of Best Supporting Actor for Cider House Rules, Wmslet, who was nominated for her 1998 performance ill Titanic, and Phoenix, who IS up for Best Supporting Actor this year for Gladiator, assure the movie of an excellence in quality of acting. The story takes place in late 18th century France under the rule of dictator, Napolean Bonaparte. When his advisors inform him of the peddling of pornograp~y that is goin~ on his country s streets, he is infuriated and determined to silence the author of these crude works, the Marquis de Sade. The Marquis, on the other hand, has been confined to an asylum already for a few years before N apolean discovered his ways of corruption. He has secretly distributed his work through the chambermaid, Madefine; played by WInslet, by hiding his documents with his pick up of his daily linens. Now, the Abbey Cloutier of the asylum, portrayed by Phoenix, has hospitably catered to the Marquis for the entirety of his stay. He has always been aware of the Marquis' past hobby of writing his filth, but he has been ignorant of the Marquis' latest covert productions of his pornography. When Napoleon sends the renowned Corrder, a supreme corrections officer, played by Caine, to intercept the coalillOn of the Marquis and Madeline, Cloutier is distraught over "!" friends' betrayal. The MarqUIS went behind Cloutier's back SO he could distribute his work. This leaves the abbey with the regretful job of stril'ping. the Marquis of all of his writing utensils.

Rodriguez was hired as a visiting assistant professor and was offered a tenure-track position, which he declined. Rodriguez chose Princeton because, . "it was a great opporturuty to work with some of the leading academics in [his] field and teach in the broad area of southwestern United States history." In addition to teaching classes, he plans to do research in the area of social movements and civil rights in both the southwest and among Mexican Americans on the Midwestern frontier. Jerry Greenfield, chair of the History department, said "I was happy for him - Princeton is one of the finest universities in the nation, so it was a great opportunity for Professor Rodriguez." Parkside interviewed Rodriguez in September 2000, and he joined the University in January 2001. He was hired to focus on the United States civil rights history and on the Mexican American history component in particular. The history department is currently looking for a replacement to fill the position left vacant by Rodriguez. "We returned to the search after Professor Rodriguez let us know that he had the Princeton offer. The search committee already has had candidates [and] ... We hope to have a positive response within a few weeks"said Greenfield. Rodriguez is a Mexican American who was born in Wisconsin, and settled in southeastern Wisconsin. He graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee with a bachelor's degree in History. He received both his Master and Ph.D. degrees from Northwestern University. Rodriguez is presently attending law school at the University of WisconsinMadison, where he plans to graduate in 2001 with a Juris Doctorate. - Staff Reporter A t the end of the 2000- 01 school year, Marc Rodriguez , visiting assistantprofessor of History will be leaving Parkside and ;tar\ing his new job as ~ assistantprofessor In the History del'artment at Princeton Umverstty.

Well, not fat, not really. That is to say, I'm not obese. "You're not fat!" he asserts, with a tone warning that he does not want to hear me run down the usual list of fatty assets. His anger is the typical response to my whining; it is typical of all men who hear a woman make this famous assertion. The answer is formulaic and expected. So, why do women say it if we know they are going to answer with the prescribed reply? Iam not attempting to make myself the center of attention, and Iam definitely not fishing for compliments. I am well aware that anyone skilled in basic manners is not going to tell me I'm fat to my face, even if they think I really am. It is not to fulfill my ego. I do not want you to tell me that I am skinny, nor do.I want you to tell me that I am perfect, because I'm not. Ibelieve that many men think a compliment is the motive behind our claim, that our egos are so pitiful they need to be stroked at least once an hour. I can not defend all women, but I can assure you that my ego is not as needy and pathetic as to actually announce to any person that I am grossly fat, in hopes of a reflexive compliment in return. Perhaps, as you read this, you are rolling your eyes, wondering at the audacity of someone who would complain about something so seerrungly trivial in comparison to a larger social issue such as world hunger. Let me assure you that this is not trivial to me or to most other typical women. I am constantly submerged in thin ima~es, slogans are sublimated With attacks on my selfesteem, and the forced competition to look better than the next woman is fierce. A large part of my life has been consumed with this incessant worry; in fact, a large portion of my day is devoted to mentally berating myself for my numerous bodily flaws. The path to finding the truth about why Ibelieve Iam fat is a difficult and treacherous one. It is wrought by media representations, distorted by self-perception, and clouded with painful memories. It seems an insurmountable task to explicate the pain that is invisible to society, the double-standard that is acceptable in everyday media, and the shame that is a constant source of confusion to me. You may not understand the pressure that a woman feels continuously harassing her throughout a typical day. As a woman, I am taught to be uneasy about my appearance. On any given_ morning, I wake up to hear an announcer on the radio touting the newest product on the diet market a miracle weight· loss pill. He explains the logic for using the miracle diet (thinner thighs, a flat, firm, stomach, a shapelier butt) and finishes with an acute observation - "If your diet hasn't worked for you yet, what makes you think it ever will?" The television is on as my usual morning routine is rehearsed. Cover Girl reminds me, the target audience, to use their concealer if Iwant to be an "ea.sy,,, h,reezy, beautiful cover girl, L oreal encourages me to beautify "Because I'm worth .it," and Maybelline whispers if Iwasn't born with it, at least they can help . ("Maybe she's born with it. Maybe it's Maybelline"). My breakfast is a healthy and nutritional shake, courtesy of Slim-Fast. While I thumb through a woman's magazine, an article leaps out of the page encouraging me to accept my body the way it is. Opposite the article is an ad picturing an impossibly skinny woman and a gorgeous man staring lovingly down at her. All this is bother me. Why indeed? Inthe grand scheme of the universe, my body weight is not important. It will not land me a good job, provide me with lots of money, or secure my personal _happiness - or will it? In my experience, beauty and figure are many times the inducement for all these things. Are women valuable to the Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition because they have a charming personality and a sharp sense of wit? Does the "fat girl" you personally know have dates every weekend and men who value her intellect over her appearance? How many times have you overheard a male telling his friends he would never go out with a certain girl because IIshe exceeds his maximum weight limit?" For women, the relationship between money ana appearance is undeniable. On weekends, I work as a cocktail waitress at a trendy nightclub.

If Iam not careful, all the terrible things that "fat girls" go through will Soon become my fate. I may seem vain in the sense that Iseem preoccupied with my physical appearance. Vanity, however, suggests a certain satisfaction with one's appearance, the belief that perfection has been achieved. r could not be any farther away from this in my mind. It is the rare occasion when Ihave looked in the mirror and have not had a ready insult na~ging at the edge of my conscience. If my claim is not for vanity, for a compliment, or for an expected answer, then it is for two entirely different purposes. On the most basic level, itis a weak plea for understanding, for empathy in its simplest form. Iwant someone to relate to my self-loathing, a person who knows what it is like to be unhappy with the reflection in the mirror. If you simply answer with "You're not fat," then Iknow you don't understand. Ask me to explain myself, let me sniffle on your shoulder as I explain my deficiencies, or tell me that you understand what it is like not to live up to a certain image. Explain to me that you know why I think I'm fat but that you don't agree. Secondly, I am pleading with you to stop buying into the mediated images of feminine perfection. I need you to realize that although the skinniest model may be attractive, so is the healthiest of "real" women. Allow yourself to appreciate the feminine body in it.s various forms, not just the Image that is repeated in every commercial, ad, and music video. Tell the woman in your life that you think she is beautiful to you, not because she has the thinnest, longest legs, not because her butt can fit in the palm of your hand, and not because her six-pack rivals that of your own. Tell her that she is perfect because she was made just they way you warited.

The second purpose was to give undergraduates students the opportunity to work on projects with the ITPC business partners. This lab was a joint project between the University and Snap-On Tools, SC Johnson Wax and Harley Davidson. The idea originated from Cory Mason, an alumni of Parkside, who is director of Information Services at Harley Division. Dirk Baldwin, Associate Professor of Information Systems, says, "I think the ITPC Jab is an important symbol of a strong partnership between Harley Division, Johnson Wax, Snap-on, and UW-Parkside. The relationship allows students to work with professors and IS professionals to develop problem solving, leadership, teamwork and design skills." He also went on to say, "The relationship also allows the students to use some of the latest equipment used in industry. I think it is an exciting opportunity for UW-Parkside that distinguishes us from many other universities. " When asked about the success of the lab, Professor Baldwin said, "I think this lab is very successful, but we are just starting." He also indicated that the long-term overall success of the lab is based on short-term goals, such as each individual project and semester, and long-term goals. "However, we have project goals each year and sub-goals each semester. At least along some dimensions we canmeasure our success by comparing progress to our project goals. On a longer-term basis, we will measure success through our relationships with the partners, the number of MIS and computer science students using the lab, the number of new MIS and computer science students in the program, and the placement of March 8, 2001 our students in full time jobs." This lab is different from a standard lab due to the fact it is only used, for special projects and contains software that is not available in other labs, such as Visual Studio, Oracle and Business Objects. Secondly, it is set up in more of a conference format so that students can work on projects ill teams. The main emphasis is partnership. For example, students enrolled in the Database Management Systems class can use the lab for extra credit projects. . Currently, mostly MIS students use this lab and an occasional computer science student who is working on a project with Professor Baldwin. One of the plans to improve the lab includes more The Information Technology Practice Center, sponsored by Harley Davidson, Snap.()n com put e r s , Tools, and Johnson Professionals, gives MIS and IS students hands-on experience.

Inside the marooned vehicle were Glorianna Daggy, 79, and Rose Bruno, 88. The students, Joseph Donnerbauer and David Place, both Parkside j0l;igers, waded through the chilly water to pull the women out of the car. "I didn't have a choice" said Place. After three trips to get the women, their walkers, and a blanket from the back of the vehicle, the two students wrapped the ladies in the blanket and offered the shirts off their backs to keep the women's feetwarm. The women had been stranded on the flooded bridge for approximately an hour, and claimed they saw three other cars come down to the bridge and turn back. -"I figured any decent person would have came out and helped:' remarked Donnerbauer. "You'd think a person would have some feelings inside." As Donnerbauer comforted the ailing victims, Place ran to dial 911. Fortunately Joseph KickIer and his family were approximately 100 yards away. Fickler was completely unaware of the ladies' distress call,but when Placepleaded for help, Fickler and his wife, Julie, and his daughter and son, Stephanie and Christopher, Peek under the covers The Ranger News exposed Sarah Olsen Co-Editor~in-Chief All work and no play makes for a boring newspaper. As you can see from the r.hoto, the staff found time to 'play" after conferences and seminars while in San FranCISco. "I think my favorite part of the trip was getting to ~ee our staff in an 'out of office SItuation" says Design Manager Pete Forchette. "And who could forget Aunt Charlie's, the drag queen show?" That's right, a drag queen show. I had the rare op,Bortunity to compete in the 'Queen for a Night" contest and managed to come in a close second. "I learned- never to' mix drag S1ueenswith Raspberry Stoley said Christine Agaiby, advertising manager. "All you get is a severe hangover and some interesting photos" (look inside for photos from the show). The conference was a unique experience for the staff not only because they were able to learn a great deal of informationabout the newspaper business, but because they had the opportuni ty to learn more about each other.

Pete Forchette, Sarah Olsen, and Christine Agalby. gladly gave up their jackets and outer winter clothing. As Place took the garments back to the women to help keep them warm, Fickler and his familyraced their vehicle over to a nearby gas station to dial 911. After Somers rescue squad members arrived on the scene to escort the two ladies to Aurora Healthcare center, the Pickler family offeredthe two heroes a seatin their car to try to warm them up. The two women are home safe today and say they hold the highest respect for the two student heroes that carne to their aid.

Newspaper staff creates legacy for journalists Sarah Olsen Co-Editor-in-Chief The staff of The Ranger News returned from the National College Newspaper Convention Sunday, March 25th prepared to toss tradition and custom out the window. Armed with enthusiasm and newly acquired knowledge, the staff is working to transform The Ranger into the true voice of the student body by ushering in a new legacy of journahsm at Parkside. The first order of business to be performed upon returning to Parkside was to shock the reporters at the regular Monday meeting. "1 told the reporters that the newspaper sucks, but we now have the ability to change 'that" says Sarah Olsen, co-editor-inchief. "We did not know how to properly run a newspaper· before, but that is not the case anymore." Staff members are busy sharing the knowledge they learned at the conference and training a team to take over the newspaper next year. Attendants of the regular Monday meetings are taking part in seminars designed to help writers become better journalists. The reporters are learning basic journalism skills such as how to write a better headline and how to get a good interview, with more information on the way. In addition to implementing new training techniques, the staff has been restructured and new positions have been created. The staff is recruiting journalists, investigative reporters, cartoonists, political analysts, design and layout managers, and opinion essayists who are willing to be innovative and take risks. The most obvious change to the newspaper is apparent in the new layout designed by Forchette. "In order to be able to compete with other newspapers, the design needed to become more innovative, daring, original, and fun" says Porchette, who attended several seminars where he was Continued on page 5 .~-~- ..........

ByBrenda Dunham One night Christine, Sarah, and I went for dessert at Mel's Diner. Our waiter asked where we were from, and when I responded with "We're from Wisconsin" he laughed and repeated "Wes-KONsin?!" Apparently, we all have accents - ken ya imagen that, eh? Westarted taking notice of our Canadian accents and quickly became the butts of our own jokes. I, however, won the award for "Most Predominant WesKON-sin Accent." Don't ya know that San Francisco doesn't have cows, unless it is a statue in front of Hard Rock Cafe? Just to warn you if you go to San Francisco don't be asking for a Tyme machine. People will think ya're literally nuts. San Franciscans don't have bubblers, they drink from water fountains. They also don't have soda, they drink pop. If'n ya ken remember the lingo you'll be better off than us, and maybe you won't even be laughed at. As ya can imagen its good to be horne were the way I talk doesn't stand out so much. However I'll have to be putting my cote (coat) and boo-uts (boots) back on. The Walking Germ By Dan White b Unfortunately, I ended ul?, emg "the walking germ' because I caught a cold due to the change ill the climate. Although 1was sick for a good portion of the trip I did manage to attend the seminars. I also managed to give a cold to another member of the group and who knows how many other people! I learned many keys to maintaining the funds of the newspaper, successful advertising strategies, and to not blow your nose with hotel Kleenex (it really hurts after too many blows!) Hopefully, the techniques I learned will keep the newspaper healthy - unlike myself! "When in Rome, do as the Romans" By Pete Forchette During the normal school day, it is not uncommon for people to hear me quote a song, poem, or movie. But while in San Francisco, I found myself saying a quote in particular more than any other - "While in Rome, do as the Romans." Now, don't get carried away, as I certainly didn't, I assure you. But one can't help but notice how different things are away from Keno-where (Kenosha). One of the very first things that struck me as odd was the ride from the airport in San Francisco to our hotel downtown. We were graciously escorted by our taxi cab driver, first tluough a red and blue gang war zone, and then past a popular transsexual prostitution comer. Now, you Just can't find those kind of things in your backyard around here .: The next morning I awoke to the hustle and bustle of the city life below me. Hills made of buildings and houses dictated the movements of all the sports cars, buses, and trolleys that crawled along its alleys. The wildlife we encountered along the- way later that week also made me stop and think. The waiter at the Hard Rock Cafe got us all "rowdy," a metallic robot man was passing out candy to strangers for spare change. And who could forget about Aunt Charlie, the eccentric, cross-dressing drag queen? -- So, as you can see I had plenty of reasons for blurting out my quote of quotes during my adventure ill Rome, I mean San Francisco. And in case you were wondering, no, I didn't leave my heart there. The Bitch By Sarah Olsen Sometimes in life we are forced to assume a role that is not our usual disposition. While in San Francisco, I became "The Bitch" of the group - not to my group, just to those who got in my way. The first time my temper was tested was when we arrived in St. Louis for a layover. After a quick bite to eat, we headed to the ticket counter ready to embark on our connecting flight to the golden city. Imagine our surprise when the snippy flight attendant announced, "Your plane already left." Immediately my hand flew to my hip and my inner bitch was unleashed. "What do you mean our plane left? We still have at least one minute before the .plane is supposed to depart!" Needless to say, we are not seasoned travelers and this experience has laught us a valuable lesson regarding time management. After an extended layover, and an impossibly long flight, we finally arrived at the hotel, 6 a.m, Wisconsin time, 4 a.m. San Francisco time. We trudged to the counter, ready to welcome some Holiday Inn hospitality. The gentleman at the counter punched our names into the counter and promptly announced, "We do not have your rooms anymore." Now, I am not normally a horrible person, but our little friend at the counter would swear otherwise. "What do you mean we don't have a room?" I asked, as a deadly caIm settled over the lobby. I'm not sure what happened next, but according to first-hand accounts, my eyes glowed red, my head spun in circles on my neck, and the man at the counter suddenly found two available rooms. Tour Guide Barbie By Christine Agaiby "Rise and shine everybody, we have a busy day ahead of us and we can t just waste the day in bed now, can we?" You may think it's easy_ always being the peppy, energetic one, but maybe you should try waking up four crab-asses used to sleeping in until afternoon class. On the agenda for the first day, we started with breakfast at Ghiradelli Square where I forced scalding posh coffee down their tluoats. I wanted lively group members at the meetings, not sleep)' ones. After the morning conferences we had lunch in Chinatown where I forced them to eat crab rangoons. No one was going to be Jicky about trying new foo on this trip; I didn't care if ther were allergic to shellfish. then quickly ushered them into the trolley headed towards Fisherman's Wharf where we utilized brief photo opportunities. I had something truly special planned for the evening. We sang and danced, mingling with the best of the locals at Aunt Charlie's, a drag queen hot spot. All this and more, packed into one exhausting day. Besides planning every detail of the trip, I was also responsible for translating for the WesKon-sinite, soothing the germ, taming the Roman, and calming the bitch._ As you can see, we truly did succeed in doing it all on this trip and still made it to all our meetings without a problem. I hope you've all enjoyed reading about our wonderful experience and have found the trip 'to be as fascinating as we did. It was great having you along as you ventured through our grand voyage to San Francisco. B'bye now. B'bye, B'bye. B'bye, now. B'bye. Are they lone yet. ..are thJ::Jlkne? Goo ,my cheeks are . . g me. I really can't smile this much anymore. Can I take a break now? Just a little break? Great. WHAT'S ON YOUR RESUME?

March 8, 2001 Go ahead and spoil yourself with Chaco/at Lynn Garcia Staff Reporter C hoco/at, nominated for Best Picture, takes place in a small French village. Almost everyone in the community is religious and does not allow themselves to enjoy the pleasures of life. The mayor, Comte de Reynaud (Alfred Molina), literally runs the village. The young priest has to have his sermon looked at and approved before he preaches it to the village people. It's almost as if the mayor is God. Vianne Rocher (Juliette Binoche) and her daughter, Anouk arrive in the village and open a chocolate shop just in time for Lent. They are immediately looked down upon since they do not attend church and are tempting people during such a sacred time. Vianne keeps her chin up and befriends her landlady, Armande Voizen (Judi Dench), who feels as if she is all alone in the world. Armande's daughter will not speak to her or allow her to see her grandson. Vianne tries her best to keep her business afloat. She gives out free sampies and soon the customers return for more. In the meantime some river rats arrive and the mayor tries to run them out of town. Vianne hires Roux to do some handy work around the shop. This doesn't sit well with the Mayor and he comes up with a plan to get rid of Vianne. Comte de Reynaud gets sick of everyone spoiling themselves with chocolate so he writes a sermon telling the village people that Vianne is Satan and that her sweet treat is like the forbidden fruit. Will the community listen and not return to Vianne's shop or will the people continue to indulge in the chocolate? I strongly suggest seeing this film. Itis absolutely fantastic. The performances are superb and the story is thoroughly enjoyable. I hope that the film is recognized and takes at least one Oscar home. Kenosha native, Mark Ruffalo, stars in award-nominated You Can Count on Me Tyrone A. Payton Staff Reporter Kenosha native, Mark Ruffalo, got his first Significant movie recognition in this winter's You Can Count on Me. Viewers might recognize Ruffalo from UPN's "The Beat." He has currently been preoccupied with his recent fame from his portrayal of Terry, a easy come-easy go charmer who visits his older sister to reflect upon his current dead-end life. His sister, Sammy, played by Laura Linney, IS a divorced mother with a son of 8 who is involved with a man who doesn't excite her, Bob, and a new boss she can't stand to work with on any level. Linney; was honored for her portrayal of Sammy this year, as she was norrunated for Best Actress by the Academy of Motion Pictures. The story opens up with the audience being introduced to Sammy and Terry's parents, as they are heading home in the middle of a rainstorm. Then the audience is immediately introduced to Sammy and Terry, as we see them at their parents' funeral from the crash they encountered with a semi that night. The beginning is a little flat to start with, but then the movie fast forwards to the children when they are older and on their own. Terry has been leading a reckless life and decides to rekindle his relationship with his sister, Sammy, and her son, lems with her new boss, played by Matthew Broderick, though. Broderick is in constant disturbance over he authority that Sammy has over him with the workers on her side. It seems as ifthese tow can't agree upon anything, but out of their pent up range must have ignited a spark between them. Soon Sammy is having an affair with her boss, and both her and Terry are back to reliving their old lives when they were wild teens. The rekindling of these siblings brings back their rowdy behavior, but also awakens them to their respective dependence on each other. They fill the void in each other's lives where there is no happiness. In the end, Laura Linney and Mark Ruffalo, In a scene from You each comes to this concluCan Count on Me.

Choco/at is nominated for Best Picture and tells the story of a young woman whose enchanted sweets awaken passion In a staid French village. Rush is a triumph and another Oscar nominee Tyrone A. Payton Staff Reporter Quills is the latest feature starring Geoffrey Rush, in which he pulled off another stellar performance to his prior award-winning act in Shine. As you may recall, Rush was awarded best actor back in 1998 when the controversial subtraction of Leonardo DiCaprio was left off the voting roster. This year he is nominated again -for his portrayal of the Marquis de Sade, the late 18th century, French, pornographic author. The movie features other phenomenal displays of acting by Joaquin Phoenix as the Abbey Cloutier, Kate WirISlet as the laundry wench, Madeline, and Michael Caine as the officer of corrections, Corrder. Caine, who was last year's winner of Best Supporting Actor for Cider House Rules, Wmslet, who was nominated for her 1998 performance ill Titanic, and Phoenix, who IS up for Best Supporting Actor this year for Gladiator, assure the movie of an excellence in quality of acting. The story takes place in late 18th century France under the rule of dictator, Napolean Bonaparte. When his advisors inform him of the peddling of pornograp~y that is goin~ on his country s streets, he is infuriated and determined to silence the author of these crude works, the Marquis de Sade. The Marquis, on the other hand, has been confined to an asylum already for a few years before N apolean discovered his ways of corruption. He has secretly distributed his work through the chambermaid, Madefine; played by WInslet, by hiding his documents with his pick up of his daily linens. Now, the Abbey Cloutier of the asylum, portrayed by Phoenix, has hospitably catered to the Marquis for the entirety of his stay. He has always been aware of the Marquis' past hobby of writing his filth, but he has been ignorant of the Marquis' latest covert productions of his pornography. When Napoleon sends the renowned Corrder, a supreme corrections officer, played by Caine, to intercept the coalillOn of the Marquis and Madeline, Cloutier is distraught over "!" friends' betrayal. The MarqUIS went behind Cloutier's back SO he could distribute his work. This leaves the abbey with the regretful job of stril'ping. the Marquis of all of his writing utensils.

Rodriguez was hired as a visiting assistant professor and was offered a tenure-track position, which he declined. Rodriguez chose Princeton because, . "it was a great opporturuty to work with some of the leading academics in [his] field and teach in the broad area of southwestern United States history." In addition to teaching classes, he plans to do research in the area of social movements and civil rights in both the southwest and among Mexican Americans on the Midwestern frontier. Jerry Greenfield, chair of the History department, said "I was happy for him - Princeton is one of the finest universities in the nation, so it was a great opportunity for Professor Rodriguez." Parkside interviewed Rodriguez in September 2000, and he joined the University in January 2001. He was hired to focus on the United States civil rights history and on the Mexican American history component in particular. The history department is currently looking for a replacement to fill the position left vacant by Rodriguez. "We returned to the search after Professor Rodriguez let us know that he had the Princeton offer. The search committee already has had candidates [and] ... We hope to have a positive response within a few weeks"said Greenfield. Rodriguez is a Mexican American who was born in Wisconsin, and settled in southeastern Wisconsin. He graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee with a bachelor's degree in History. He received both his Master and Ph.D. degrees from Northwestern University. Rodriguez is presently attending law school at the University of WisconsinMadison, where he plans to graduate in 2001 with a Juris Doctorate. - Staff Reporter A t the end of the 2000- 01 school year, Marc Rodriguez , visiting assistantprofessor of History will be leaving Parkside and ;tar\ing his new job as ~ assistantprofessor In the History del'artment at Princeton Umverstty.

Well, not fat, not really. That is to say, I'm not obese. "You're not fat!" he asserts, with a tone warning that he does not want to hear me run down the usual list of fatty assets. His anger is the typical response to my whining; it is typical of all men who hear a woman make this famous assertion. The answer is formulaic and expected. So, why do women say it if we know they are going to answer with the prescribed reply? Iam not attempting to make myself the center of attention, and Iam definitely not fishing for compliments. I am well aware that anyone skilled in basic manners is not going to tell me I'm fat to my face, even if they think I really am. It is not to fulfill my ego. I do not want you to tell me that I am skinny, nor do.I want you to tell me that I am perfect, because I'm not. Ibelieve that many men think a compliment is the motive behind our claim, that our egos are so pitiful they need to be stroked at least once an hour. I can not defend all women, but I can assure you that my ego is not as needy and pathetic as to actually announce to any person that I am grossly fat, in hopes of a reflexive compliment in return. Perhaps, as you read this, you are rolling your eyes, wondering at the audacity of someone who would complain about something so seerrungly trivial in comparison to a larger social issue such as world hunger. Let me assure you that this is not trivial to me or to most other typical women. I am constantly submerged in thin ima~es, slogans are sublimated With attacks on my selfesteem, and the forced competition to look better than the next woman is fierce. A large part of my life has been consumed with this incessant worry; in fact, a large portion of my day is devoted to mentally berating myself for my numerous bodily flaws. The path to finding the truth about why Ibelieve Iam fat is a difficult and treacherous one. It is wrought by media representations, distorted by self-perception, and clouded with painful memories. It seems an insurmountable task to explicate the pain that is invisible to society, the double-standard that is acceptable in everyday media, and the shame that is a constant source of confusion to me. You may not understand the pressure that a woman feels continuously harassing her throughout a typical day. As a woman, I am taught to be uneasy about my appearance. On any given_ morning, I wake up to hear an announcer on the radio touting the newest product on the diet market a miracle weight· loss pill. He explains the logic for using the miracle diet (thinner thighs, a flat, firm, stomach, a shapelier butt) and finishes with an acute observation - "If your diet hasn't worked for you yet, what makes you think it ever will?" The television is on as my usual morning routine is rehearsed. Cover Girl reminds me, the target audience, to use their concealer if Iwant to be an "ea.sy,,, h,reezy, beautiful cover girl, L oreal encourages me to beautify "Because I'm worth .it," and Maybelline whispers if Iwasn't born with it, at least they can help . ("Maybe she's born with it. Maybe it's Maybelline"). My breakfast is a healthy and nutritional shake, courtesy of Slim-Fast. While I thumb through a woman's magazine, an article leaps out of the page encouraging me to accept my body the way it is. Opposite the article is an ad picturing an impossibly skinny woman and a gorgeous man staring lovingly down at her. All this is bother me. Why indeed? Inthe grand scheme of the universe, my body weight is not important. It will not land me a good job, provide me with lots of money, or secure my personal _happiness - or will it? In my experience, beauty and figure are many times the inducement for all these things. Are women valuable to the Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition because they have a charming personality and a sharp sense of wit? Does the "fat girl" you personally know have dates every weekend and men who value her intellect over her appearance? How many times have you overheard a male telling his friends he would never go out with a certain girl because IIshe exceeds his maximum weight limit?" For women, the relationship between money ana appearance is undeniable. On weekends, I work as a cocktail waitress at a trendy nightclub.

Vanity, however, suggests a certain satisfaction with one's appearance, the belief that perfection has been achieved. r could not be any farther away from this in my mind. It is the rare occasion when Ihave looked in the mirror and have not had a ready insult na~ging at the edge of my conscience. If my claim is not for vanity, for a compliment, or for an expected answer, then it is for two entirely different purposes. On the most basic level, itis a weak plea for understanding, for empathy in its simplest form. Iwant someone to relate to my self-loathing, a person who knows what it is like to be unhappy with the reflection in the mirror. If you simply answer with "You're not fat," then Iknow you don't understand. Ask me to explain myself, let me sniffle on your shoulder as I explain my deficiencies, or tell me that you understand what it is like not to live up to a certain image. Explain to me that you know why I think I'm fat but that you don't agree. Secondly, I am pleading with you to stop buying into the mediated images of feminine perfection. I need you to realize that although the skinniest model may be attractive, so is the healthiest of "real" women. Allow yourself to appreciate the feminine body in it.s various forms, not just the Image that is repeated in every commercial, ad, and music video. Tell the woman in your life that you think she is beautiful to you, not because she has the thinnest, longest legs, not because her butt can fit in the palm of your hand, and not because her six-pack rivals that of your own. Tell her that she is perfect because she was made just they way you warited.

The second purpose was to give undergraduates students the opportunity to work on projects with the ITPC business partners. This lab was a joint project between the University and Snap-On Tools, SC Johnson Wax and Harley Davidson. The idea originated from Cory Mason, an alumni of Parkside, who is director of Information Services at Harley Division. Dirk Baldwin, Associate Professor of Information Systems, says, "I think the ITPC Jab is an important symbol of a strong partnership between Harley Division, Johnson Wax, Snap-on, and UW-Parkside. The relationship allows students to work with professors and IS professionals to develop problem solving, leadership, teamwork and design skills." He also went on to say, "The relationship also allows the students to use some of the latest equipment used in industry. I think it is an exciting opportunity for UW-Parkside that distinguishes us from many other universities. " When asked about the success of the lab, Professor Baldwin said, "I think this lab is very successful, but we are just starting." He also indicated that the long-term overall success of the lab is based on short-term goals, such as each individual project and semester, and long-term goals. "However, we have project goals each year and sub-goals each semester. At least along some dimensions we canmeasure our success by comparing progress to our project goals. On a longer-term basis, we will measure success through our relationships with the partners, the number of MIS and computer science students using the lab, the number of new MIS and computer science students in the program, and the placement of March 8, 2001 our students in full time jobs." This lab is different from a standard lab due to the fact it is only used, for special projects and contains software that is not available in other labs, such as Visual Studio, Oracle and Business Objects. Secondly, it is set up in more of a conference format so that students can work on projects ill teams. The main emphasis is partnership. For example, students enrolled in the Database Management Systems class can use the lab for extra credit projects. . Currently, mostly MIS students use this lab and an occasional computer science student who is working on a project with Professor Baldwin. One of the plans to improve the lab includes more The Information Technology Practice Center, sponsored by Harley Davidson, Snap.()n com put e r s , Tools, and Johnson Professionals, gives MIS and IS students hands-on experience.

Inside the marooned vehicle were Glorianna Daggy, 79, and Rose Bruno, 88. The students, Joseph Donnerbauer and David Place, both Parkside j0l;igers, waded through the chilly water to pull the women out of the car. "I didn't have a choice" said Place. After three trips to get the women, their walkers, and a blanket from the back of the vehicle, the two students wrapped the ladies in the blanket and offered the shirts off their backs to keep the women's feetwarm. The women had been stranded on the flooded bridge for approximately an hour, and claimed they saw three other cars come down to the bridge and turn back. -"I figured any decent person would have came out and helped:' remarked Donnerbauer. "You'd think a person would have some feelings inside." As Donnerbauer comforted the ailing victims, Place ran to dial 911. Fortunately Joseph KickIer and his family were approximately 100 yards away. Fickler was completely unaware of the ladies' distress call,but when Placepleaded for help, Fickler and his wife, Julie, and his daughter and son, Stephanie and Christopher, Peek under the covers The Ranger News exposed Sarah Olsen Co-Editor~in-Chief All work and no play makes for a boring newspaper. As you can see from the r.hoto, the staff found time to 'play" after conferences and seminars while in San FranCISco. "I think my favorite part of the trip was getting to ~ee our staff in an 'out of office SItuation" says Design Manager Pete Forchette. "And who could forget Aunt Charlie's, the drag queen show?" That's right, a drag queen show. I had the rare op,Bortunity to compete in the 'Queen for a Night" contest and managed to come in a close second. "I learned- never to' mix drag S1ueenswith Raspberry Stoley said Christine Agaiby, advertising manager. "All you get is a severe hangover and some interesting photos" (look inside for photos from the show). The conference was a unique experience for the staff not only because they were able to learn a great deal of informationabout the newspaper business, but because they had the opportuni ty to learn more about each other.

Pete Forchette, Sarah Olsen, and Christine Agalby. gladly gave up their jackets and outer winter clothing. As Place took the garments back to the women to help keep them warm, Fickler and his familyraced their vehicle over to a nearby gas station to dial 911. After Somers rescue squad members arrived on the scene to escort the two ladies to Aurora Healthcare center, the Pickler family offeredthe two heroes a seatin their car to try to warm them up. The two women are home safe today and say they hold the highest respect for the two student heroes that carne to their aid. "Parkside joggers Joseph Donnerbauer (left) and Davey Place (right) stand on the bridge where the rescue took place. Newspaper staff creates legacy for journalists Sarah Olsen Co-Editor-in-Chief The staff of The Ranger News returned from the National College Newspaper Convention Sunday, March 25th prepared to toss tradition and custom out the window. Armed with enthusiasm and newly acquired knowledge, the staff is working to transform The Ranger into the true voice of the student body by ushering in a new legacy of journahsm at Parkside. The first order of business to be performed upon returning to Parkside was to shock the reporters at the regular Monday meeting. "1 told the reporters that the newspaper sucks, but we now have the ability to change 'that" says Sarah Olsen, co-editor-inchief. "We did not know how to properly run a newspaper· before, but that is not the case anymore." Staff members are busy sharing the knowledge they learned at the conference and training a team to take over the newspaper next year. Attendants of the regular Monday meetings are taking part in seminars designed to help writers become better journalists. The reporters are learning basic journalism skills such as how to write a better headline and how to get a good interview, with more information on the way. In addition to implementing new training techniques, the staff has been restructured and new positions have been created. The staff is recruiting journalists, investigative reporters, cartoonists, political analysts, design and layout managers, and opinion essayists who are willing to be innovative and take risks. The most obvious change to the newspaper is apparent in the new layout designed by Forchette. "In order to be able to compete with other newspapers, the design needed to become more innovative, daring, original, and fun" says Porchette, who attended several seminars where he was Continued on page 5 .~-~- ..........

ByBrenda Dunham One night Christine, Sarah, and I went for dessert at Mel's Diner. Our waiter asked where we were from, and when I responded with "We're from Wisconsin" he laughed and repeated "Wes-KONsin?!" Apparently, we all have accents - ken ya imagen that, eh? Westarted taking notice of our Canadian accents and quickly became the butts of our own jokes. I, however, won the award for "Most Predominant WesKON-sin Accent." Don't ya know that San Francisco doesn't have cows, unless it is a statue in front of Hard Rock Cafe? Just to warn you if you go to San Francisco don't be asking for a Tyme machine. People will think ya're literally nuts. San Franciscans don't have bubblers, they drink from water fountains. They also don't have soda, they drink pop. If'n ya ken remember the lingo you'll be better off than us, and maybe you won't even be laughed at. As ya can imagen its good to be horne were the way I talk doesn't stand out so much. However I'll have to be putting my cote (coat) and boo-uts (boots) back on. The Walking Germ By Dan White b Unfortunately, I ended ul?, emg "the walking germ' because I caught a cold due to the change ill the climate. Although 1was sick for a good portion of the trip I did manage to attend the seminars. I also managed to give a cold to another member of the group and who knows how many other people! I learned many keys to maintaining the funds of the newspaper, successful advertising strategies, and to not blow your nose with hotel Kleenex (it really hurts after too many blows!) Hopefully, the techniques I learned will keep the newspaper healthy - unlike myself! "When in Rome, do as the Romans" By Pete Forchette During the normal school day, it is not uncommon for people to hear me quote a song, poem, or movie. But while in San Francisco, I found myself saying a quote in particular more than any other - "While in Rome, do as the Romans." Now, don't get carried away, as I certainly didn't, I assure you. But one can't help but notice how different things are away from Keno-where (Kenosha). One of the very first things that struck me as odd was the ride from the airport in San Francisco to our hotel downtown. We were graciously escorted by our taxi cab driver, first tluough a red and blue gang war zone, and then past a popular transsexual prostitution comer. Now, you Just can't find those kind of things in your backyard around here .: The next morning I awoke to the hustle and bustle of the city life below me. Hills made of buildings and houses dictated the movements of all the sports cars, buses, and trolleys that crawled along its alleys. The wildlife we encountered along the- way later that week also made me stop and think. The waiter at the Hard Rock Cafe got us all "rowdy," a metallic robot man was passing out candy to strangers for spare change. And who could forget about Aunt Charlie, the eccentric, cross-dressing drag queen? -- So, as you can see I had plenty of reasons for blurting out my quote of quotes during my adventure ill Rome, I mean San Francisco. And in case you were wondering, no, I didn't leave my heart there. The Bitch By Sarah Olsen Sometimes in life we are forced to assume a role that is not our usual disposition. While in San Francisco, I became "The Bitch" of the group - not to my group, just to those who got in my way. The first time my temper was tested was when we arrived in St. Louis for a layover. After a quick bite to eat, we headed to the ticket counter ready to embark on our connecting flight to the golden city. Imagine our surprise when the snippy flight attendant announced, "Your plane already left." Immediately my hand flew to my hip and my inner bitch was unleashed. "What do you mean our plane left? We still have at least one minute before the .plane is supposed to depart!" Needless to say, we are not seasoned travelers and this experience has laught us a valuable lesson regarding time management. After an extended layover, and an impossibly long flight, we finally arrived at the hotel, 6 a.m, Wisconsin time, 4 a.m. San Francisco time. We trudged to the counter, ready to welcome some Holiday Inn hospitality. The gentleman at the counter punched our names into the counter and promptly announced, "We do not have your rooms anymore." Now, I am not normally a horrible person, but our little friend at the counter would swear otherwise. "What do you mean we don't have a room?" I asked, as a deadly caIm settled over the lobby. I'm not sure what happened next, but according to first-hand accounts, my eyes glowed red, my head spun in circles on my neck, and the man at the counter suddenly found two available rooms. Tour Guide Barbie By Christine Agaiby "Rise and shine everybody, we have a busy day ahead of us and we can t just waste the day in bed now, can we?" You may think it's easy_ always being the peppy, energetic one, but maybe you should try waking up four crab-asses used to sleeping in until afternoon class. On the agenda for the first day, we started with breakfast at Ghiradelli Square where I forced scalding posh coffee down their tluoats. I wanted lively group members at the meetings, not sleep)' ones. After the morning conferences we had lunch in Chinatown where I forced them to eat crab rangoons. No one was going to be Jicky about trying new foo on this trip; I didn't care if ther were allergic to shellfish. then quickly ushered them into the trolley headed towards Fisherman's Wharf where we utilized brief photo opportunities. I had something truly special planned for the evening. We sang and danced, mingling with the best of the locals at Aunt Charlie's, a drag queen hot spot. All this and more, packed into one exhausting day. Besides planning every detail of the trip, I was also responsible for translating for the WesKon-sinite, soothing the germ, taming the Roman, and calming the bitch._ As you can see, we truly did succeed in doing it all on this trip and still made it to all our meetings without a problem. I hope you've all enjoyed reading about our wonderful experience and have found the trip 'to be as fascinating as we did. It was great having you along as you ventured through our grand voyage to San Francisco. B'bye now. B'bye, B'bye. B'bye, now. B'bye. Are they lone yet. ..are thJ::Jlkne? Goo ,my cheeks are . . g me. I really can't smile this much anymore. Can I take a break now? Just a little break? Great. WHAT'S ON YOUR RESUME?

March 8, 2001 Go ahead and spoil yourself with Chaco/at Lynn Garcia Staff Reporter C hoco/at, nominated for Best Picture, takes place in a small French village. Almost everyone in the community is religious and does not allow themselves to enjoy the pleasures of life. The mayor, Comte de Reynaud (Alfred Molina), literally runs the village. The young priest has to have his sermon looked at and approved before he preaches it to the village people. It's almost as if the mayor is God. Vianne Rocher (Juliette Binoche) and her daughter, Anouk arrive in the village and open a chocolate shop just in time for Lent. They are immediately looked down upon since they do not attend church and are tempting people during such a sacred time. Vianne keeps her chin up and befriends her landlady, Armande Voizen (Judi Dench), who feels as if she is all alone in the world. Armande's daughter will not speak to her or allow her to see her grandson. Vianne tries her best to keep her business afloat. She gives out free sampies and soon the customers return for more. In the meantime some river rats arrive and the mayor tries to run them out of town. Vianne hires Roux to do some handy work around the shop. This doesn't sit well with the Mayor and he comes up with a plan to get rid of Vianne. Comte de Reynaud gets sick of everyone spoiling themselves with chocolate so he writes a sermon telling the village people that Vianne is Satan and that her sweet treat is like the forbidden fruit. Will the community listen and not return to Vianne's shop or will the people continue to indulge in the chocolate? I strongly suggest seeing this film. Itis absolutely fantastic. The performances are superb and the story is thoroughly enjoyable. I hope that the film is recognized and takes at least one Oscar home. Kenosha native, Mark Ruffalo, stars in award-nominated You Can Count on Me Tyrone A. Payton Staff Reporter Kenosha native, Mark Ruffalo, got his first Significant movie recognition in this winter's You Can Count on Me. Viewers might recognize Ruffalo from UPN's "The Beat." He has currently been preoccupied with his recent fame from his portrayal of Terry, a easy come-easy go charmer who visits his older sister to reflect upon his current dead-end life. His sister, Sammy, played by Laura Linney, IS a divorced mother with a son of 8 who is involved with a man who doesn't excite her, Bob, and a new boss she can't stand to work with on any level. Linney; was honored for her portrayal of Sammy this year, as she was norrunated for Best Actress by the Academy of Motion Pictures. The story opens up with the audience being introduced to Sammy and Terry's parents, as they are heading home in the middle of a rainstorm. Then the audience is immediately introduced to Sammy and Terry, as we see them at their parents' funeral from the crash they encountered with a semi that night. The beginning is a little flat to start with, but then the movie fast forwards to the children when they are older and on their own. Terry has been leading a reckless life and decides to rekindle his relationship with his sister, Sammy, and her son, lems with her new boss, played by Matthew Broderick, though. Broderick is in constant disturbance over he authority that Sammy has over him with the workers on her side. It seems as ifthese tow can't agree upon anything, but out of their pent up range must have ignited a spark between them. Soon Sammy is having an affair with her boss, and both her and Terry are back to reliving their old lives when they were wild teens. The rekindling of these siblings brings back their rowdy behavior, but also awakens them to their respective dependence on each other. They fill the void in each other's lives where there is no happiness. In the end, Laura Linney and Mark Ruffalo, In a scene from You each comes to this concluCan Count on Me.

Choco/at is nominated for Best Picture and tells the story of a young woman whose enchanted sweets awaken passion In a staid French village. Rush is a triumph and another Oscar nominee Tyrone A. Payton Staff Reporter Quills is the latest feature starring Geoffrey Rush, in which he pulled off another stellar performance to his prior award-winning act in Shine. As you may recall, Rush was awarded best actor back in 1998 when the controversial subtraction of Leonardo DiCaprio was left off the voting roster. This year he is nominated again -for his portrayal of the Marquis de Sade, the late 18th century, French, pornographic author. The movie features other phenomenal displays of acting by Joaquin Phoenix as the Abbey Cloutier, Kate WirISlet as the laundry wench, Madeline, and Michael Caine as the officer of corrections, Corrder. Caine, who was last year's winner of Best Supporting Actor for Cider House Rules, Wmslet, who was nominated for her 1998 performance ill Titanic, and Phoenix, who IS up for Best Supporting Actor this year for Gladiator, assure the movie of an excellence in quality of acting. The story takes place in late 18th century France under the rule of dictator, Napolean Bonaparte. When his advisors inform him of the peddling of pornograp~y that is goin~ on his country s streets, he is infuriated and determined to silence the author of these crude works, the Marquis de Sade. The Marquis, on the other hand, has been confined to an asylum already for a few years before N apolean discovered his ways of corruption. He has secretly distributed his work through the chambermaid, Madefine; played by WInslet, by hiding his documents with his pick up of his daily linens. Now, the Abbey Cloutier of the asylum, portrayed by Phoenix, has hospitably catered to the Marquis for the entirety of his stay. He has always been aware of the Marquis' past hobby of writing his filth, but he has been ignorant of the Marquis' latest covert productions of his pornography. When Napoleon sends the renowned Corrder, a supreme corrections officer, played by Caine, to intercept the coalillOn of the Marquis and Madeline, Cloutier is distraught over "!" friends' betrayal. The MarqUIS went behind Cloutier's back SO he could distribute his work. This leaves the abbey with the regretful job of stril'ping. the Marquis of all of his writing utensils.

Rodriguez was hired as a visiting assistant professor and was offered a tenure-track position, which he declined. Rodriguez chose Princeton because, . "it was a great opporturuty to work with some of the leading academics in [his] field and teach in the broad area of southwestern United States history." In addition to teaching classes, he plans to do research in the area of social movements and civil rights in both the southwest and among Mexican Americans on the Midwestern frontier. Jerry Greenfield, chair of the History department, said "I was happy for him - Princeton is one of the finest universities in the nation, so it was a great opportunity for Professor Rodriguez." Parkside interviewed Rodriguez in September 2000, and he joined the University in January 2001. He was hired to focus on the United States civil rights history and on the Mexican American history component in particular. The history department is currently looking for a replacement to fill the position left vacant by Rodriguez. "We returned to the search after Professor Rodriguez let us know that he had the Princeton offer. The search committee already has had candidates [and] ... We hope to have a positive response within a few weeks"said Greenfield. Rodriguez is a Mexican American who was born in Wisconsin, and settled in southeastern Wisconsin. He graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee with a bachelor's degree in History. He received both his Master and Ph.D. degrees from Northwestern University. Rodriguez is presently attending law school at the University of WisconsinMadison, where he plans to graduate in 2001 with a Juris Doctorate. - Staff Reporter A t the end of the 2000- 01 school year, Marc Rodriguez , visiting assistantprofessor of History will be leaving Parkside and ;tar\ing his new job as ~ assistantprofessor In the History del'artment at Princeton Umverstty.

Well, not fat, not really. That is to say, I'm not obese. "You're not fat!" he asserts, with a tone warning that he does not want to hear me run down the usual list of fatty assets. His anger is the typical response to my whining; it is typical of all men who hear a woman make this famous assertion. The answer is formulaic and expected. So, why do women say it if we know they are going to answer with the prescribed reply? Iam not attempting to make myself the center of attention, and Iam definitely not fishing for compliments. I am well aware that anyone skilled in basic manners is not going to tell me I'm fat to my face, even if they think I really am. It is not to fulfill my ego. I do not want you to tell me that I am skinny, nor do.I want you to tell me that I am perfect, because I'm not. Ibelieve that many men think a compliment is the motive behind our claim, that our egos are so pitiful they need to be stroked at least once an hour. I can not defend all women, but I can assure you that my ego is not as needy and pathetic as to actually announce to any person that I am grossly fat, in hopes of a reflexive compliment in return. Perhaps, as you read this, you are rolling your eyes, wondering at the audacity of someone who would complain about something so seerrungly trivial in comparison to a larger social issue such as world hunger. Let me assure you that this is not trivial to me or to most other typical women. I am constantly submerged in thin ima~es, slogans are sublimated With attacks on my selfesteem, and the forced competition to look better than the next woman is fierce. A large part of my life has been consumed with this incessant worry; in fact, a large portion of my day is devoted to mentally berating myself for my numerous bodily flaws. The path to finding the truth about why Ibelieve Iam fat is a difficult and treacherous one. It is wrought by media representations, distorted by self-perception, and clouded with painful memories. It seems an insurmountable task to explicate the pain that is invisible to society, the double-standard that is acceptable in everyday media, and the shame that is a constant source of confusion to me. You may not understand the pressure that a woman feels continuously harassing her throughout a typical day. As a woman, I am taught to be uneasy about my appearance. On any given_ morning, I wake up to hear an announcer on the radio touting the newest product on the diet market a miracle weight· loss pill. He explains the logic for using the miracle diet (thinner thighs, a flat, firm, stomach, a shapelier butt) and finishes with an acute observation - "If your diet hasn't worked for you yet, what makes you think it ever will?" The television is on as my usual morning routine is rehearsed. Cover Girl reminds me, the target audience, to use their concealer if Iwant to be an "ea.sy,,, h,reezy, beautiful cover girl, L oreal encourages me to beautify "Because I'm worth .it," and Maybelline whispers if Iwasn't born with it, at least they can help . ("Maybe she's born with it. Maybe it's Maybelline"). My breakfast is a healthy and nutritional shake, courtesy of Slim-Fast. While I thumb through a woman's magazine, an article leaps out of the page encouraging me to accept my body the way it is. Opposite the article is an ad picturing an impossibly skinny woman and a gorgeous man staring lovingly down at her. All this is bother me. Why indeed? Inthe grand scheme of the universe, my body weight is not important. It will not land me a good job, provide me with lots of money, or secure my personal _happiness - or will it? In my experience, beauty and figure are many times the inducement for all these things. Are women valuable to the Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition because they have a charming personality and a sharp sense of wit? Does the "fat girl" you personally know have dates every weekend and men who value her intellect over her appearance? How many times have you overheard a male telling his friends he would never go out with a certain girl because IIshe exceeds his maximum weight limit?" For women, the relationship between money ana appearance is undeniable. On weekends, I work as a cocktail waitress at a trendy nightclub.

If Iam not careful, all the terrible things that "fat girls" go through will Soon become my fate. I may seem vain in the sense that Iseem preoccupied with my physical appearance. Vanity, however, suggests a certain satisfaction with one's appearance, the belief that perfection has been achieved. r could not be any farther away from this in my mind. It is the rare occasion when Ihave looked in the mirror and have not had a ready insult na~ging at the edge of my conscience. If my claim is not for vanity, for a compliment, or for an expected answer, then it is for two entirely different purposes. On the most basic level, itis a weak plea for understanding, for empathy in its simplest form. Iwant someone to relate to my self-loathing, a person who knows what it is like to be unhappy with the reflection in the mirror. If you simply answer with "You're not fat," then Iknow you don't understand. Ask me to explain myself, let me sniffle on your shoulder as I explain my deficiencies, or tell me that you understand what it is like not to live up to a certain image. Explain to me that you know why I think I'm fat but that you don't agree. Secondly, I am pleading with you to stop buying into the mediated images of feminine perfection. I need you to realize that although the skinniest model may be attractive, so is the healthiest of "real" women. Allow yourself to appreciate the feminine body in it.s various forms, not just the Image that is repeated in every commercial, ad, and music video. Tell the woman in your life that you think she is beautiful to you, not because she has the thinnest, longest legs, not because her butt can fit in the palm of your hand, and not because her six-pack rivals that of your own. Tell her that she is perfect because she was made just they way you warited.

The second purpose was to give undergraduates students the opportunity to work on projects with the ITPC business partners. This lab was a joint project between the University and Snap-On Tools, SC Johnson Wax and Harley Davidson. The idea originated from Cory Mason, an alumni of Parkside, who is director of Information Services at Harley Division. Dirk Baldwin, Associate Professor of Information Systems, says, "I think the ITPC Jab is an important symbol of a strong partnership between Harley Division, Johnson Wax, Snap-on, and UW-Parkside. The relationship allows students to work with professors and IS professionals to develop problem solving, leadership, teamwork and design skills." He also went on to say, "The relationship also allows the students to use some of the latest equipment used in industry. I think it is an exciting opportunity for UW-Parkside that distinguishes us from many other universities. " When asked about the success of the lab, Professor Baldwin said, "I think this lab is very successful, but we are just starting." He also indicated that the long-term overall success of the lab is based on short-term goals, such as each individual project and semester, and long-term goals. "However, we have project goals each year and sub-goals each semester. At least along some dimensions we canmeasure our success by comparing progress to our project goals. On a longer-term basis, we will measure success through our relationships with the partners, the number of MIS and computer science students using the lab, the number of new MIS and computer science students in the program, and the placement of March 8, 2001 our students in full time jobs." This lab is different from a standard lab due to the fact it is only used, for special projects and contains software that is not available in other labs, such as Visual Studio, Oracle and Business Objects. Secondly, it is set up in more of a conference format so that students can work on projects ill teams. The main emphasis is partnership. For example, students enrolled in the Database Management Systems class can use the lab for extra credit projects. . Currently, mostly MIS students use this lab and an occasional computer science student who is working on a project with Professor Baldwin. One of the plans to improve the lab includes more The Information Technology Practice Center, sponsored by Harley Davidson, Snap.()n com put e r s , Tools, and Johnson Professionals, gives MIS and IS students hands-on experience.

Larry Deutisch, who has much to say about the mission statement for UW-Parkside, has an answer to this question and many more. Thereis an overall mission for all of the schools in the UW-system, but each individual university has their own mission statement. The original mission statement of the University when it first opened its doors in 1968 endured 30 years before the Board of Regionsapproved the changes to the mission statement in 1998. The idea firstcame about in 1996, when it was suggested that the mission statement should be one that is less wordy and moreeasily understood by everyone. The original mission statement of the University was quite lengthy and difficult to comprehend. Between 1996 . and 1998 the changing of the mISSIon statement was a campus process that involved students, staff, and faculty adding their input about what the University stands for and what it should stand for in the future. What should the University provide for its current students and offer to potential students who may choose to attend UW-Parkside? Why is the mission statement important? The Board of Regions wants the University to live up to a certain standard. Il serves as a guide not only to those who work for the University, but to those attending the University as well. "The University of WisconsinParkside is committed to high quality educational pr0l>rams, creative and scholarly activities, and services responsive to its diverse student pop- 'SS'ON The UW-P mission statement poster, designed by Kelly Vida, is a recent addition to the halls and classrooms of the University. class was asked to come up with a design that would accompany the mission statement. Of the class of twenty-five, approximately six students designs were chosen as finalists, and of those six students, Kelly Vida's design was chosen. Once the posters were made, they were placed all over the university for everyone to see. "They wanted a design to catch your eye from a distance and hold your attention until you were right up to the poster, studying and reading it with great interest, and that is what Kelly Vida had accomplished with her winning design." They were placed next to every Xerox.machine, coffeepot, and classroom throughout the University. ulation, and its local, national, and global communities." The University won an award for its diverse student population and strives to achieve what they have stated in the mission statement. The Board of Regions is looking for input from students about their experiences at the University. Il is the individual student's responsibility to take advantage of what is being offered to them. If they feel for whatever reason the University has not fulfilled what they have promised, they can bring that to the attention of the Board of Regions. Kelly Vida was the graphic arts student whose design for the mission statement poster was chosen.

Earnhardt started his 23rd Daytona 500 from the seventh position and was racing for third when the accident occurred.'NASCAR has lost its greatest driver; remarked NASCAR chairman of the board Bill France.

With Darrel Waltrip and his son, Dale Earnhardt [r., running in the lead, Earnhardt had been blocking for them over the final laps, frustrating the efforts of Sterling Marlin. Earnhardt obviously wanted to protect his own position, but he also had a vested interest in Waltrip and Dale Jr. - both driving Chevrolets for his North Carolina-based company, Dale Earnhardt Incorporated. In the accident, Ken Schrader's No. 36 Pontiac struck Earnhardt's car in the 'This is understandably one of the toughest announcements we've ever had to make ....

LU,BSU,SIA.Asian-A~erican,Earth ClubChristian Fellowship; are examples ~f the available organizations in the whole of Parkside that are now availableto use. An example of a new clubjust starting is SIA (Students in Action).Look for them and others on your bulletin boards for available timesand meetings. What difference do these have on ourlives and the community? (All the difference in the world it appears). The clubs facilitate and strengthen speaking out for your interests and theinterests of the choices available to thosewhose words are not heard. One person can start a movement in thought and amplify it by using an existing club or creating a group of same minded persons. Your interests and concerns are felt by others, put them together and create action from thepotential of the surn. Clubs are also a great influence in that their members' set standards they are examl?les for others to follow. Our campus, Its cleanliness and effectivenessineducating are a product of this. Hseems Parkside is our responsibility asit is responsible for our education. Quotes from people in ours: "Adela Lazano: I joined because I want a say in things ...!want to be able tovoice my concern. I don't want to be kept in the dark. ..! also am tired of bemg afraid to speak out for something I believe is truly wrong."

We are listening. Thank you or your attention and time. Student and reader of The Ranger Sincerely, Pedro Rodarte Dear Editors, .A recent issue of The Ranger contamed what I believe to be an unfair review of th~ recently released movie Hanrubal. FITst, Jodie Foster's name was spelled incorrectly in the review. Second, not all sequels should be Judged agamst their predecessors. If one was to fairly judge Hannibal against the award-winning The Silence of the Lambs, Hannibal would have had to contain the following: 1 ) Jodie Foster as Clarice Starling. Early news reports claimed that Foster turned down twenty million dollars to star because she didn't agree with the scripted ending or Harris' novel (which contained Starling partaking in Lecter's dinner after being drugged to the point of insanity) while Hannibal producer Dina De Laurentis now reports that Foster refused to do the film for anything less than a 20 million salary plus half the film's profits. (It has made more than three million dollars worldwide in three weeks.) 2) Jonathan Demme as the director. Every director has their own style, and obviously the style in TSOTL differs from what Ridley Scott did in Hannibal. 3) A screenplay by Ted Tally, rather than the WHAT'S ON YOUR RESUME? If you are an English major or aspiring journalist, and have not yet written for a newspaper, what are you waiting for? Add skills to your resume that employers are looking for - writing, interviewing, editing and so much more. The Ranger News is now hiring all positions for the Spring 2001 semester. Stop by the office, located across from the Career Center in lower Wyllie hall. Meetings are Mondays from noon to Ip.m. and are open to all interested person~. When you graduate, what will you have . to offer? Mamet-Zailian screenplay that was used. 4) A score by Howard Shore, rather than the score by Hans Zimmer. I personally believe the Zimmer score to be vastly superior to Shore's. Only if the entire cast and crew from TSOTL had been assembled to shoot Hannibal could the two movies be fairly compared. and Leeter free to roam are vastly different. A lot of what he does in his first scene with Starling in the asylum ("...all those tedious sticky fumblings in the back seats of cars while all you could think about was getting out, getting anywhere, getting all the way to the FB-I.") is meant to scare her, to freak her out. People remember that scene, and don't remember as much the ending phone call, where he acts much more like he does in Hannibal. My advice: If you don't mind a little gore, see the movie, and keep in mind that a lot of it is more black comedy than it is psychological thriller. Sincerely, Molly Beecher For the most part, Hannibal follows Harris' novel directly (with the exception of the ending). A few charactersare missing, as well asp few trips down Dr. Lecter's memory lane, but these are details that make literature literature and not a movie script. It would do a viewer well to remember that TSOTL was about Clarice Starling -Hannibal is about Hannibal Lecter. The author of The Ranger's review also mentions that Julianne Moore doesn't capture the innocent and proud determination of Foster's portrayal - she's not supposed to. Starling in Hannibal is ten years older and ten years wiser. Her career with the Bureau hasn't been what we'd like to believe it would be after the events of TSOTL. We also must remember that we are seeing Lecter in a different light than TSOTL.

At first I was not really excited about seeing this film, even though everyone Ispoke with raved about it. As Ibegan watching the film I was totally mesmerized by it. It was absolutely fabulous! The movie has English subtitles, but as the story progresses Iforgot they were even there. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is the story of two warriors (Yun-Fat Chow and Michelle Yeoh) whose quest is to recover a stolen special sword, the Green Destiny. The hunt' to recover the sword takes the viewer on a spellbinding journey on rooftops and though tree branches. Woo-ping Yuen, who also worked on The Matrix, choreographed the fantastic fight scenes. I highly recommend seeing this movie. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is the perfect date movie. It has magnificent action for the men and breathtaking romance for the ladies. Ihore that this film takes home a lot 0 Academy Awards because it definitely deserves them. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon has been nominated for ten academy awards including Best Picture. ' TrJllhis for fun By Sheree Homer Ranger Fest is to be held on April 21st, from 12-4 pm in the student union. It is a festival and open house designed to reach out to the community. School Spirit has been lower in the last couple of years according to Chancellor Keating. He thought a festival would be a great way for students, staff, and community to join together and have some fun. This is the first year that it has been ,called Ran(\er Fest. In April of 1998 UW-Parkslde held a sprmg Open House Festival. This is also the first time it has been funded. Ranger Fest hopes to have much success, so it can return every year. John Rae Stevenson and Nicole Sicuro ' are the chair people and have worked hard on getting everything ready. Student organizations and some of the majors have already decided to share in the fun by opening exhibits. Some of the exhibits include an inflatable sky dome similar to the planetarium, an ocean bubble where people can view the marine life of an ocean, a water quality test, so the community can test their water for lead and other harmful ingredients, free blood pressure screening, mocktail.

And, because student participation in the electoral process is critical, United Council coordinated a successful statewide, non-partisan Students Vote 2000 campaign to mvolve students through registration education, and get-out-the-vote efforts. ' United Council regularly lobbies the state legislature, the Governor's office and the Board of Re~ents in a consistent effort to control tuition increases and increase financial aid programs. In the 1999-2001 Biennial Budget, United Council successfully won a tuition freeze for resident undergraduate students in the 2000-2001 academic year, with an additional $28 million in state support to offset the tuition freeze and ensure- the quality of a UW education. United Council also successfully fought for state funding for UW System's Plan 2008: Quality Through Diversity, academic and career advising, libraries, and increased state grant aid. With your help United Council will have another successful year securing funds from the legislature for the UW System.

Ma8larchin 'fiell8urer Authorized and Paid for by United COUDeil of UW Studen18 Iee., sep aid has never been more important. United Council has always stressed the importance of student voices in the shared governance process of the UW System. United Council has worked to maintain and strengthen student control of student fees, and has been a clearinghouse of information and research on student safety issues, including e-mail privacy and the use of social security numbers as student identification numbers. Credit transfers, a headache for many students in Wisconsin, have been made easier through United Council's work with UW System and the state Mgislature. United Council continually opposes legislation, which would discriminate against student renters. Additionally, United Council played an instrumental role in defeating the Extra Credit Tax, which would have increased tuition for many students at UW-Parkside and across the UW System. United Council has spent 40 years of its existence ensuring that students enjoy the maximum benefit from their educations.

The first date, before a movie, after the game, mother's birthday, just .a few of the occasions that cause us to decide on a restaurant. We think very carefully about the place, the time, what we are going to wear, but rarely do we think about the server who is bringing our drinks and our dinners. Let us take a few minutes to think about what a server's job is like. Then we may have more respect and more patience for the people who are at the heart of our meal, Then some of us might think that it is not such an easy job to have. While it can be said that the general public on the whole knows how to act in a restaurant, it can also be said that quite a few people leave their manners in the car. Scenario one: when a server approaches a table that has just sat down she is required to give them some basic information, such as her name, the soup of the day, and the special of the evening. While most people politely listen, there are others who are blurting out what they want to drink before the server gets half her name out. The guests have just set the tone for the next hour and a half. Beforethe customers have their drinks in front of them they are considered rude. Usually if someone is rude, he or she will not tip well. Servers live on tips and if they feel that the tip they are going to receive is most likely going to be inadequate they will give minimum service. So you're saying that everyone should get good service regardless, right? How would your job performance be if your boss came to you and said that he was going to take two dollars off your hourly pay? Would you do the best job you could do? This is exactly how a server feels when they receive less than the standard gratuity of fifteen percent. Sure the server will take your order and bring your food out to you, but remember that soda you were fO eager to get? You might want to ration it because chances of getting another. one are slim. Oh need ketchup? Didn't you hear about the shortage on that? People like to feel that they are the most important guests in the restaurant. Servers enjoy doing their best to make the guests feel this way. While most guests understand that they are not the server's only responsibility, there are the exceptions. Let us imagine a Friday night, all the tables are full and there is a two hour waiting list. A family of four has just been seated at a table in the back of the dining room. The waitress goes up to the table and gives them her spiel, Then she asks the question of the night: "Can I get you folks something to drink right away?" The parents answer no problem, then the mother asks the question that every server dreads hearing; "Sally,honey, tell the nice woman what you want to drink." Why does the server cringe you ask? Because she knows what is coming next. The child's eyes go down and the face becomes pressed against the mother's side. Of course Sally is shy. By this time the server is thinking of about ten things that she needs to get done. The man at table ten needs his check, table four is ready to order, tables six and eight are waiting on food that should be ready at any time, oh right, Sally still needs a soda, or was it milk? Her mother is still trying to get shy Sally to order. Now having a child order for themselves is fine, when the restaurant is slow. When the restaurant is full the parents should order. Would you want to be kept waiting for someone's child? Let me point out another situation that happens all the time. A large group of people, let us say fourteen, has enjoyed dinner, drinks, dessert, and coffee. When the check arrives the party realizes that they forgot to tell the man waiting on them that they needed separate checks, Okay, you are probably thinking no problem right? Think about it. The waiter has to go back and figure out what every single person at the table had. What man had how many drinks, what couple had the steaks, and whose wife had two desserts. Often the people that ate the dinner can't remember what they had to eat, but expect their server to know. Would you be able to remember? While the server may be able to EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES WITH The Ranger News • Reporters • Sports Writers • Entertainment Editor • Columnists • Cartoonists For further information, contact Sarah or Brenda at 595 2287. Meetings are Mondays from Noon-l p.m. figure it out ins takin!,';away from the time he should be usmg to check on his other tables. If his other tables do not receive good service they will not tip well. To fix the mistake you made the server is losing money. So please remember to ask for separa te checks ahead of time. If you should forget realize that it was your mistake and have everyone throw in what they think they owe. Next time you will be sure to remember. Anyone who has ever worked in the food service industry will be the first to tell you that not every night runs smoothly. The kitchen falls behind, causing the food to take a long time getting to the table. Servers have bad days and may even drop things. Of course on days like this the customers will get angry. Most behave in a calm rational manner, but once again there is the extreme exception. We have all seen it, the angry man banging his fist on the table, yelling at the person attempting to wait on him, basically making a scene. When people act in this manner their complaints fall on deaf ears. Sure management will do what they can to calm this person down, but later in the evening the staff will have a good laugh 'at the offender's performance. Oh, and the people sitting around the gentleman trying to eat their dinners, they will feel bad for the waitress,and think of the man yelling as a foolwith a lack of control in handling his anger. The examples shown here arejusta few. While they may seem a bit extreme they happen at some level every day. We generally do not think of how we are coming across to the employees of the establishment, but we need to. The people who work in the food service industry have high paced, high stress jobs. We as consumers need to respect them and the service that they are providing. While not all servers are good at their jobs we need to remember that they are still people and people deserve respect and common courtesy. Still need ketchup? You might want to run to your car and make sure you didn't forget your manners. -¥- ~)~~ ,1t1r~5T Tracy Knofla of High Impact Training resenting... -:tsPiration & Humor Divide and conqu ~on~your Student Organlzatlonl Your Invited to atten .aJlcof;LttUtJoliowing leadership sessions: w·;F "t ,sui\din, er ..a" 47 ,> R1ll\g be"" _ 5~30p.lII. d\5C\l5S\I\g \ld~ s\on on tean\b\l seve 5es to cond\lct nstt'ated• and whY \\\ be del'l\O .,:;act\V\t\e§ w "~ ... - "';,~-.:::~:;:2::~~~:"fl~" "'anage__ ~ best lIIot. rn about dlffe - 9i30~~", I..'*-oo._~.---.&" Yate and rent lead'~-~ ~ I.outaae how to :'~;:-:'~icate W.thiW';::"''''''' yO(f.

By Tyrone A Payton The 5th Annual Summer China Tour has been set and planned for [une 25th to July 8th. As usual, Sociology Professor George Wang, a native of China, has promptly sponsored the tour. The trip includes stops to Beijing, Xian, Guilin, Shanghai, Suzhou, and Hangzhou, with . plenty of accompanying English speaking guides for translation. Also, there can be arrangements set for those students who wish to visit Hong Kong. The trip is offered as a three-credit course for either international studies or sociology and anthropology. Plus, the trip is available to community members as a learning eXJ?erience. There are a series of orientation lectures that precede the tour, which will be held Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6 to 8:30 p.m. on May 8 to the 24th. Professor Wang hopes that these lectures teach background information on Chinese politics, changing economy, the evolving education system, family institution and tradition, and population control. He also hopes to team students some basic Chinese for communication, traveling etiquette, and a simple knowledge of Chinese customs. From the six stops, Professor Wang's children at the Women and Children's Shelter. We are also asking for volunteers to do some babysitting. In major Universities award ceremonies are held to recognize academic work on campus. Since U.W.t'arkside is so small we feel we can reach this goal through the production of a journal. Our first journal is going to be copied and should be available for a low price some time after Spring Break. It is our first attempt at taking the best of student's academic work in the classroom and getting them recognized for their work. Our first journal is entitled "Through Others Eyes." However we are going to change the name. We will also ask the professor to provide a summary about the subject matter and his/her intentions on the assignment. We will give full credit to each writer who chooses to be recognized. Not every class, or every student will get an opportunity to be published, but it may be likely that you will. If you are interested in participating or want to learn more about S.r.A. you can contact me at: ishihara@yahoo.com. Have you heard about the new dub on campus? Our main goal since we began this spring is to get some recognition for our journal and to recruit members. The Ideas and motivations for putting together s.LA. came from . a modest Eng1ish professor on campus. Last semester she had students participate in community service work, but we were having problems advertising since we had no sponsor. I didn't know what I was getting into at first, but since I had an interest in the importance of community, and a desire to be a leader on campus I was happy to get the club going. We differ from the Outreach club because of our intentions of putting together a journal to recognize student's academic achievement. However, we would like to work with them in the future. Throughout the semester we will be collecting children's books for the Community Action Agency and The Cops and Kids Reading Program. We are also collecting blankets for newborn babies at Kenosha Hospital. This one you may be familiar with from last semesfer. We also need volunteers to work as tutors for yOilllg tour will start off in Beijing, the capital of China, so students can leam first hand about the process of Chinese politics. From there, the city of Xian, an ancient caJ?ital of China, will emphasize Chinese history and integrated culture and religion. The next stop is the scenic Guilin, which is a center of tourism in China, and then on to the most modem city of China, Shanghai, where students will learn about economic development. At the last two stops will be Suzhou and Hangzhou, relatively small in China but DOth are considered heavily popu: lated by global standards. These two cities will emphasize the importance of Chinese tradition and family institution. These six tour stops offer a wide variety of Chinese development, which is the main focus of Professor Wang's trip, and it is what he hopes students will take back home with them. To all students who seem interested in an excursion to China, either attend the orientation series or call Professor Wang for more information. His office number is (262) 595-2520. Also, Laurie Odegaard in the UW-Parkside Center for International Studies can provide information at (262) 595-2701.

It's been almost five years since he began at Parkside, and now, with his new position, he hopes to make the school grow stronger. One of his first endeavors was to establish a new academic program in athletics with the addition of a Sports Management Certificate and a Wellness Certificate. Also, this past fall, they started the Sports Management major.Another focus of Dr. Klaver's is his involvement in the Great Lakes ValleyConference, which he has supported in financing from his first days here. His personal inclusion in the fundraising of the GLVC has helped keep it here at Parkside, which has in tum, given our athletic department a boost in competition, as the GLVC is division II of the NCAA. Although he admits the program still needs progress, Dr. Klaver is pleased with its effortand future direction for the University. Other pursuits of Dr. Klaver are the fact that with his new position, he is now the acting liaison between University Relations and government officials. At this command, he hopes that he'll be able to bring funding to the University in its endeavor to sponsor the b<;nefits of higher education. This position also entails that he must manage and maintain Parkside's home page. The most important emphasis that Dr. Klaver wants to focus on is the ability for students to navigate on the home page. He also plans on manufacturing a new design and belter procedures and programs so the home page can operate more cleanly. One interesting planned addition is the addendum of portals for the Parkside registered student. These portals will act as the students' personal page reference for all of their school activities and business at Parkside. Hopefully, all of these changes will be operational by fall, for it is significant to the school that the integrated marketmg of the school's communication is as efficient as it can be for the beginning of each semester. To quote Dr. Klaver, "Our main poal is to recruit and retain students.' With these future plans, Dr. Klaver hopes that the school will be able to expand in its academic and athletic departments. With this new position as Assistant Vice Chancellor of University Relations, Dr. Klaver expects that students on campus should anticipate an easier way to communicate and integrate with all operations here at Parkside.

Page 10 March 1, 2001 The Ranger, University of Wisconsin-Parkside - Parkside students travel to Costa Rica By Ruyayeem Rashid Normally the academic calendar follows the in the sequence of fall, sprin(\, and summer. But this year Parkside has offered Winterim classes for the 2000-2001school year. Winterim Classes ranged from various disciplines like biology, chemistry, geology and english. Most of these classes are from one to two credits only. One particular class took a field trip to Costa Rica. One student, Tom Overacker, registered for the class and summarized the whole experience as wonderful. So wonderful that he said, "1 will at some time definitely travel back to Costa Rica again!" When asked why he signed up for the class, he said, "1 've always enjoyed traveling and have never had the opportunity to do international traveling. What better time to go some place warm than right in the middle of winter. I've never really seen volcanoes or the rain forest, plus 1 wanted to start t gaining a wider view of different cultures. All that is ip addition to wanting to study first hand the geology and natural history of the region." There was a structured outline that Overacker and the rest of the class had to follow. The purpose was to cover a large portion of the country in a relatively short period of 13 days. Before going to Costa Rica, Overacker spent 16 hours of classroom preparation learning a general overview of the geology and biology of the region. In addition to the 16 hours of classroom preparation, he had to select a topic and do independent research. He choose to study the volcano "Rincon de la Vieja". Other preparations for the trip included a visit to the International Clinic to obtain vaccinations for Hepitus A, Typhoid Fever and Milaria. He also had to obtain a US passport. A typical day in Costa Rica included the students waking up early in the morning to a warm day and a breakfast of rice and beans. After breakfast, the class would travel to a new and ·exciting place, have lunch, explore another part of the region and return to dinner. In addition to traveling various parts . of Costa Rica, Overacker spent two weeks seeing and taking pictures of things you would normally see in an explorer's magazine like Natural Geographic. . Some of the most memorable parts of the trip for Overacker included a day at the beach, the trip to Monta Verde, sunset horseback riding, and several walks thraugh the topical rain forest.

In addition to the Power Macintosh G4, a new G3 IMac computer was purchased to give reporters and staff an available workstation for writing articles. "We no longer have to wait for someone to get off the computer or walk to the library computer lab whenever we need to write or edit articles in a hurry," said Sarah Olsen, co-editor. The business and advertising office received the G3 Macintosh that was previously bein9, used for publishing the newspaper.

February 22, 2001 Page 3 - The Ranger, University of Wisconsin-Parkside '~~!~~~n Big Step: Bush administration takes action against Iraq wt Friday, Feb. 16, was a memobleday for our 43rd president, George W Bush.He visited San Cristobal, Gua- ~·uato Mexico to discuss the United 5~tes ~valuation policy on Mexico's fighton drug traffiCking with the newly eiected Mexican President, Vicente Fox. His press meeting with President Fox wasScheduled for the early part of the evening, but President Bush would shock the nation with a decision he madeprior to his VISit. Earlierthat day, around 11:30a.m., 24 U.s. and British fighter planes attacked and destroyed five radar sites in Iraqi territoryinthe vicinitY.of Baghdad. This wasthe first major military action of the Bushadministration. These five radar siteswere operating along the northern borderof the southern no fly" zone whichruns along the 33rd parallel. The "noflv" zone, wfuch is south of the 33rd paralleland north of the 36th parallel, strictlyprohibits any Iraqi aircraft to occupyIts space. The apparent cause of this controversial and covert operation was an increase in Iraqi anti-aircraft fire that was attempting to shoot down patrolling allied- fighter planes. The mcrease inthe surface-to-air missile fire wasconsidered a drastic threat to the allied forces.By knocking out the radar sites, Iraqi forces' surveillance was depleted and allied forces' security was recovered. By .the end of this weekend, the Associated Press had given word that there had been 2 fatalities and 20 individuals wounded from the raid. The first fatality was a woman, Ghadya Atshaan Abdullah, who died hours after the raid, and the second was a man, Khalil Hameed Alwash, who died early Sa~day. Although, on Friday, our nation s leader kept himself composed during this whole endeavor, as he continued his conversations with President Fox. As the raid began and ended and fatalities were beginning to be released, President Bush was mainly concerned With strengthening his bond with the nation of Mexico. The President was attempting to amend a 14-year-old law that required the U.S. to annually certify that Mexico, as well as 29 other countries, was cooperating in the fight against drug trafficking. The annual certification of these 30 countries has infuriated governments over the years, for these nations find it hypocritical and demeaning that the nation that consumes the largest supply of drugs is the world is in Charge of overseeing this process. These talks were the first stepping-stone to amending this law for Mexico, which has never failed to be -¥- HIGH I PACT Ii-RAINING Tracy Knofla of High Impact Training presenting •.. lMadershlp Sklll_.

Bush, the U.S. and other allied forces received a response from President Saddam Hussein of Iraq saying that the attacks will not go unanswered. Pres. Hussein and his top officials perceive that the attacks Were made to distract Iraq from its pursuit in aiding the Palestinian forces in their continuous battles with the allied force of Israel. For the moment, the nation of Iraq is in an upheaval of anger over what most of the population sees as a crime against their country. With Iraq stating that it is ready to pounce, who knows what the allied forces are making for strategy. On this Friday, February 16, 2001, Pres. Source: Department of Defense Bush ordered an attack on one nation, strengthened bonds with another nation, and received a warning of retaliation from the previous attacked nation.

Page4 The Ranger, University of Wisconsin-Parkside Hannibal's Back, Poised for Attack By Gina Ciardo Dr. Hannibal Leeter is still at large. For the past seven years, he has taken up residence in Florence, Italy where he has been relaxing and waiting patiently to come out of "retirement" - - as he calls it. Mason Verger, Hannibal's only surviving victim, is dying for revenge and concocts a small plot of his own. Meanwhile, Hannibal is propelled to the FBI's Top Ten Most Wanted list, and Clarice Starling is put back on the case. Can she get to Dr. Lecter before Verger does? Now for the big question. Is this flick worth all the hype? Hard to say really. It all depends what you expect out of a sequel. The original "Silence of the Lambs" won all five major Academy Awards including: Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Director, and Best Screenplay. The only other movies to accomplish this feat were 1934's "It Happened One Night" and 1975's "One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest." If you enjoyed the original for it's outstanding insight into the mind of a serial killer, or if you appreciated 'Foster and Hopkins's odd yet luring chemistry, maybe you should take Hannibal with a grain of salt. On the other hand, if brains and bowels are what peak your interest most, then you definitely don't want to miss this one. In the new film "Hannibal," Clarice Starling, formerly played by Jodi Foster, is replaced by actress Julianne Moore (Boogie Nights, Magnolia). The trouble with the recast is that the role of Starling isn't reprised: it's revised. Moore fails to pin down the f innocence and the proud determination that Foster nailed as the original FBI agent. Starling is a different woman in the sequel. Moore seems angry and feminist in comparison to Foster's complicated and clever take on Agent Starling. Due to the recast, it was clear that certain key scenes between Starling and Dr. Leeter lack the sparks that the original pieture had. For example, near the end of "Hannibal" there IS a scene where Starling handcuffs herself to Leeter in an attempt to keep him from getting away. (Don't worry, I won't gIve anything away.) Leeter is faced with an important decision. Had Foster's Starling been standing face to face with Hannibal, his actions would have seemed more like an act of love -- almost strangely parental. In actuality, it was an odd exchange. The chemistry was muddled. Instead, the extraordinary act of love by a psychopath, serial killer fizzled into a scripted plot twist. That's not to say that the movie was completely hopeless. There are a Guiltv Pleasures: Realitv Television By Lynn Garcia Here we are smack dab in the'middle of February sweeps with at least three reality television series to be engrossed with - The Mole, Temptation Island, and Survivor. Every major network has jumped on the bandwagon this time around; the only one that hasn't is NBC. FOX has brought the viewers Temp-. tation Island, a show that took four committed but unmarried couples, split them up, and put them together with thirty singles who were looking for love. The couples were matched up with three of the singles that best fit their description of the perfect mate. After two weeks of playing in the single world again, the couples will have to choose between their new flames and their old mates. Many students and facuIty on Parkside's campus think that the show was staged and the contestants were possibly aetors and actresses. Professor Walter .Graffin commented, "If the couples were truly committed, they wouldn t go on the show." I completely agree, why risk a meaningful relationship just to be on television? ABC has introduced The Mole on Tuesday evenings. Ten contestants have been chosen to take part in an exciting adventure and a chance to win $1,000,000. One of these ten is "the mole;" he/she will try to throw the challenges the other contestants participate in. CBS debuted Survivor II: The Australian Outback just in time for Sweeps. This is the show a majority of Parkside students are most familiar with. Jose Vargas made a very interesting point about the difference between the first Survivor and this one: "All these shows are pretty disgusting. The original Survivor was original - this one is exploited." It appears that most the Women are much more glamorous-looking and they almost appear to be wearing make-up. A couple students expressed the realization that the show is nothing more than a popularity contest. Elizabeth Horwitz handful of nauseating scenes guaran. teed to be undeniably grotesque. "Hat's off" to Direetor Ridley Scottfor that. It is only unfortunate that those scenes come to us slightly out of can. text. Mostly, it seems as though they are thrown-in to ensure we as audi- ·ence members receive the level of repulsion tha t we paid for. In that respect, you'll get your money's worth. However, no amount of blood and guts in this sequel can add up to the sensation of peril that the bloodless night-vision scene from the original conjured. This time around, the plot was fairly shallow and most of its characters rather flat -- particularly Ray Liotta's Paul Krendler, a Justice Department official. However, I promise Hannibal does not disappoint when it comesto violently creative gross-out scenes. Unfortunately, the film obviously wasn't made to be an Oscar contender. This is evident in Lecter's light-hearted banter and one liners throughout the movie as well as in Moore's questionable West Virginian accent. Best advice: See the movie and enjoy it for what it's worth, but don't go home and rack your brains over it. said," It's all a fad that is just goingtogo away. What happened to the ~oOd sitcom television we used to have. NBC has fought back against Survivor II by making Friends an extraten minutes longer and followed by a special twenty-minute LIVE Saturday Night Live. This has never been done before. Unfortunately for NBC,Survivor has been the big winner so far onThursday nights. Many of the students and facultysay they haven't watched the new shows. Some just do not have the time; others say they have no interest. ProfessorJ~e King said, "I'd like to watch just onetu;'e so that I could see what it is all about. Elizabeth Horwitz "It's all a fad that is just going to go away. What happened to the good sitcom television we used to have?". Professor Walt Graffin "A~l these sh?~s a~e pretty disgustmg.

"11 is vital to anybody's education to do anything international." There is so much to learn about the rest of the world and this is the chance to experience how other students around the world live and how their culture influences who they are. If a student cannot commit to the full semester required to study abroad, there are study tours that are also opportunities to visit a foreign country, but only for a couple of weeks rather than an entire semester. The study tours are popular and professors from UW-P run the study tours. Recently students from UW-Parkside had the opportunity to go on a study tour to Ghana. Another study tour went to Costa Rica. Greg Mayer, assistant professor of Biology and Gerald Fowler, professor of Geology, led the group that went to study geological formation and biological studies. The Center for international Studies helped fund two stu- . dents who participated in this study tour. There are also plans for a study tour to Russia over Sprmg Break. There is still time to apply for this study tour that is led by Oliver Hayward, associate professor of History. Professor Hayward has been going on study tours to Russia and other eastern European countries for the past ten years. Also, a study tour to China is scheduled over the summer. Xun Wang, associate professor of SociololD" is leading this study tour and this is his third study tour to China. This is an exceptional opportunity to take part in a unique learning experience, particularly since academic credit earned can be transferred to UW-Park side. For further information about study abroad programs and financial aid for study abroad, students are encouraged to contact the Center for International Studies Mom. 367 or phone (262) 595- 2701 as soon as possible. .

Five straight losses hurt tourney hoPOS Let's face it, there's no such thing as a good time to go on a five-game losing streak. But the UW-Parkside men's basketball team probably couldn't have picked a worse time to go into a fivegame skid-three of them at home last week and all of them in the Great Lakes Valley Conference (GLVC). The losses left the Rangers dangerously close to elimination from the conference tournament with two games remaining to be played. On Tuesday, Feb. 13, the Rangers inability to control Lewis University guard Josh Virostko and a dreadful non-call led to a 60-58 loss. Virostko had 21 points and Flyers' center Austin Real had 10 to pace Lewis. Brian Coffman, who has led the Rangers in scoring all season, had just 10 points on 4 of 13 shooting. However, he appeared to be headed for the tying basket as he knifed down the lane and went for a lay-up in the closing seconds. There appeared to be contactlots of contact-under the basket that would have' sent Coffman to the line for two free throws to tie the game, but no call was made and Lewis came away with the win. Brain Masstricht led UW-Parkside with 13 points. Last Thursday, Feb. 15, Southern Indiana came in as the number two team in the NCAA Division II. And although USI left with a IS-point 87-72 victory, the game was much closer than the score would indicate. UW-Parkside played tough defense for 35 minutes and trailed by only four points at the half. However, a big second half for Southern Indiana's Marlow Currie (19 points) and-clutch baskets by Gregg Lyons (14 points) allowed USI to pull away at the close. Neither Currie or Lyons, however, scored any style points with their showboating as the clock wound down. Brian Coffman scored 26 for the Rangers (he had 31 points against USI earlier in the season). Nick Knuth was a force inside with 19 hard-won points before he fouled out. ' Saturday was hard to watch. Playing against an SUI-Edwardsville team that had just seven players due to academic problems, the Rangers lost 67- 66. The Cougars were content to shoot Taurnev hopes end for ladv RangerS This hasn't been an easy season for the UW-Parkside Lady Ranl';ers. There have been a seemingly inordinate number of close and frustrating losses, some discouraging blow-outs, and offensive ,droughts-periods when five, six, eight minutes would pass without a pointthat made both the close games and the blow-outs all the more annoying. On Tuesday, Feb. 13, the frustratingly close loss scenario played itself out in a 75-72 defeat to Lewis University. The game was tied 33-33 at the half and 65- 65 at the end of regulation, but UWParkside could do nothing to stop Jennifer Simon (28 points) or Andrea Gunnell (19 points) throughout the game and into the extra period. Nicole Brunk led the Lady Rangers with 19 points and Joy Rodefer had 13 before fouling out. The loss ended UW-Parkside's hopes for post-season play. It was the second straight three-point loss for the Lady Rangers who were beaten 86-83 at Kentucky Wesleyan the previous Saturday. The blow-out scenario appeared to be occurring in the first half against Southern Indiana. The Lady Rangers fell behind early and trailed by as many as 20 points and by 13 a! the half. The team revived toward the end of the first half and made a game of it in the second half before faIling 80-69. UW-Parkside played without Tiesha Campbell who was given an indefinite suspension before the game. ' The less said about Saturday's game with SIU-Edwardsville the better. SIUE shot 60 percent from floor in the first half to build a 38-17 lead en route to an 85-44 win. Misi Clark had 20 points for the Cougars, and Rodefer led UWParkside with 16. The Lady Rangers are now 3.15 in the Great Lakes Valley Conference (6- 18 overall). They close out theseason at IUPU-Fort Wayne tonight and at St. Joseph's Saturday. uw-p Lady Rangers battle on the home against Lewis University, Tuesday, Feb. 13. three-pointers in the first half with Marty Perry (21 points) and Garret Thomas launching from waaaay downtown.

Photo by Jeff Alley Parkside welcomes a familiar face as new athletic director New Athletic Director Dave ~illiamsIs getting comfortable In hle new office In th,e SAC By Zach Robertson Dave Williams, a familiar face around the athletic department, has taken over as acting athletic director this semester at UW-Par1<side.Williams, who has spent the last 3 years at UW-Parkside, assumes the position left by Lenny Klaver, who has accepted a full-time position as vice chancellor of University Relations. In the past 3 years at UW-Parkside, Williams has worn many hats. He has spent all 3 years as head coach of the men's golf team. Prior to this year he had spent 2 years as assistant coach of the men's basketball team, while splitting time last year as the assistant athletic director. "When 1 first came to UW-Parkside, 1 had set my career path on being a basketball coach," said Williams. "However after spending some tim~ in administration, 1 began to see this as my future." Prior to his time here at UW-Parkside, ,Williams was the assistant basketball coach at. Augustana (.:ollege in Rock ,1sI,,:,d, IIlinOIS, and North Dakota State U,:,,~erslty 'ill Fargo, North Dakota Williamsre~~dhisbach~ors~~ from Augustana, and his masters degree fromNDSU. As acting athletic director Willi wants to help student-athletes'to learn~ , much from athletics as possible, both on and off the field. "One of the roles ofathletics is to provide positive, lifelong learning experiences said Williams. "There is much to be learned in athletics, and it's my responsibility to make sure that students have those opportunities." UW-Parkside has always believed that academic and athletic excellence go hand in hand, something that Williams hopes will continue. 'The level that our teams compete at will rise and fall every year, but what we hope to do, is make sure that our academic successIS always a constant" said Williams. "I think that the athletic department's success is not only on the I'laying field, but in the Classroom as well." Williams is also quickto point out how appreciative he is of the support that he has been given. "I apfreaate the tutoring that was able to get from Lenny Klaver, who helped me throughout this whole process" said Williams. "The sUPI'°rt that I have received from Chancellor Keating and the entire athletic department has been tremendous." With the support of his colleagues, and the continuing success of RaJ:tger athletics, expect Williams to remalll a familiar face around campus for a long time.

By Christine Agaiby You are given five choices on appli- . cations ana asked to place a check next to the "racial category that best suits you." How do you determine which box to check, especially if you are multiracial? Over 10.5 million Americans are encountered with the question of "what are you" every day of their lives because they are not recognizably black or white. They are ethnically ambiguous, arousing an uncomfortable feeling in others who cannot place them in a certain category. This question can lead to an internal struggle in the multiracial individual, being forced into the decision of having to "pick sides" in the dichotomous society we live in .. For the first time in U.5. history, the government has recognized the growing population of this multiracial group in the 2000 census. The census allowed respondents the choice to "check all that apply" under the questions regarding race. Was it the increasing popularity of multiracial athletes, singers, and actors such as Tiger Woods, Mariah Carey, and Tatyana Ali who influences the recogAcademv Award Nominations By Lynn Garcia On Feb. 13, 2001, Kathy Bates announced the nominations for this year's Academy Awards at a live cere- • many.

Other clubs that stood out were UW-Parkside's radio station, WIPZ, which had a live band playing during the fair. Two of the band members are volun teers at the station. At the Circle K booth, the club was racing minnows. In addition to this fishy activity, there were highlights of past events like Winter Weekend for the Northern Wisconsin/Upper Michigan District, and up-coming events like the club's district convention (you'll have to join the club to find out what that's all about). In addition, there was a newsletter that interested students were able to look at to see what other Circle K Clubs are doing within the district. Also at the booth, the club was giving away Smarties with a message that read, "Be a Smartie, join Circle K." At the organizational fair in September, the message was "How many people does it take to change the world? One.You!" Almost all the clubs had candy and some literature about" the clubs that students could take. Approximately 37 organizations signed up for the fair while 34 had tables at the event.

Higher Utilitv Prices Affecting Evervone.. .Including UW-Parliside By Zach Robertson The recent rise in utility prices has affected ~veryone, in one way or another. Students living off campus have seen a rise in their monthly gas and electric bills, while other students have probably heard about it on the news. UWParkside has also felt the sting of increased utility. prices, especially in heating the buildings on campus. According to Sharon Stoltz, financial specialist at the Facilities Management plant, "Eighty percent of the yearly budget has already been spent, and We are only 60% through the year." The increased cost of natural gas is to blame for the high heating costs the University MS encountered. The price of natural gas has guadrupled in a very short time, leavmg UW-Parkslde no choice but to switch to fuel oil. Fuel oil is a cheaper alternative to natural gas, but it has doubled in price from a year ago. Add to this the four percent increase in electricity, and it's easy to see the effect the prices are having on UWParkside. According to Don Kolbe director of Facilities Management, UW-Parkside has gone to great lengths in fighting higher utility costs, with energy efficient features in the buildings on campus. "We've installed an energy management system, energy saving lights, and motion sensors in the classrooms", said Kolbe. "We also have in the works, a water saving plan, which will also help to cut back utility costs." , Even with these energy saving ideas, you can bet UW-Parkside will be keer.- ing it's fingers crossed, hoping that utility prices return to normal. The same can almostcertainlybe said for the students.

Do you have concerns about the programming that children are exposed to? Ifthe answer to either of these questions is "yes," then you get the chance to voice your opinion at an open forum discussion to be held at UW-Parkside.

If you have an opinion on TV being too violent, or if you think TV is fine, and there's nothing wrong with it, this forum will give you a chance to have your opinion heard. The forum will be used to help the project groups in Professor Megan Mullen's Broadcasting and Society class. Anyone who would be interested in coming in, and helping to facilitate discussion would be greatly appreciated. The date and time for this forum is not yet scheduled, but anyone interested should call Professor Mullen at ext. 2664. She can also be reached by e-mail at Mullenfsuwp.edu.

In urban and rural areas alike, community kitchens and meal programs are unable to meet food requests. Hunger is a way of life for 27 million Americans. Many of the hungry are also homeless' or on the verge of homelessness. Families with children make up 39 percent of the homeless population. There is enough food produced to feed everyone in the world. Yet, one person dies from hunger-related causes every forty seconds. ' The Parkside Volunteer Program and the Parkside Community Outreach Club are co-sponsoring the university's third annual Hunger Cleanup, a three hour community service work-a-thon in which students raise money while volunteering in programs for the hungry and homeless. Similar to a walk-athon, the Cleanup mobilizes thousands of students acrossthe country to gather pledges from family and friends for their volunteer work. Volunteer projects include painting local shelters, planting community gardens, and refurbishing low-income housing units. Money raised through this unique work-a-then benefits local, national, and international hunger and homeless programs. Fifty percent of the money raised will be donated to one Racine and one Kenosha agency; thirtyfive percent of the funds earned will go to the National Student Campaign Against Hunger and Homelessness to educate and train students to be more effective in their efforts to end hunger and homelessness; and the remaining fifteen percent will be given to the International Development Exchange (IDEX)which sponsors grassroots community needs to fuel further change. Since the first Hunger Cleanup in 1984, the National Student Campaign Against Hunger and Homelessness (NSCABH) has worked with schools across the country to make it one of the most successful student and community events. More than 100,000 students have completed thousands of work projects, raising more than $1 million dollars in its 15-year history. This will be the third year that UWParkside participates in the national Bunger Cleanup, which is now in its seventeenth year of existence. Our Cleanup will be from 8:00a.m. - 2:00p.m. on Saturday, April 7. Volunteers will meet at Parkside at 8:00a.m. for registration and kickoff. At 9:30 a.m., teams of 8-10 volunteers each will travel to local worksites in Kenosha and Racine. At 1:00 p.m., volunteers will return to Parkside for lunch and reflection. Our UW-Parkside goal is to mobilize 100 student volunteers and raise $3,000. In order to achieve this goal, we are encouraging volunteers to raise $30 each. In addition to asking friends and families here in Wisconsin, we have a direct mail letter that students can send to relatives and others living out-ofstate to request their sponsorship. This service project would be a great opportunity for residence hall wings and apartments to develop unity and cohesion among residents. 1t also lends itself well to clubs/organizations who want to get to know one another better while helping in the community.

The series this :t,ear consistedof: Natalie MacMaster, The Nutcracker,"Arlo Guthrie, Ailey II, LustonHarris, "Annie," and The RiversideSymphony. Irecently spoke to Joanne Yantis, thedirector of Special Projects, about this wonderful series. She informed me that when she is picking out woups she looks for acts that people do notnecessarily know but the audience will remember them long after theperformance. She also books more traditionalacts such as "The Nutcracker" and "Annie". Yantis wants to get the students involved with this spectacular series At the beginning of the year, student~ are able to get the pack~ge for a thirty l'ercent discount. That IS seven fantastic shows .for jUs~ $79. If you wanted t? go see Annie in Chicago just one ticket would cost you around $80. If a person chooses to buy season tickets they will occupy the same seats for every performance and if someone should lose their tickets they can be replaced.

The WasthOUghtthat the security set up Day~t~factory, and asked the Big ef orgaruzer, Ken West, to • • up the security ante. They were met with West's response to "leave him alone." He told the band that he'd been doing the event for over 10 years and he knew what he was doing. After the Sydney melee, Limp Bizkit went to the Big Day Out .I'romoters again and asked for a T-style barricade and extra security if they were to continue on the tour. They were concerned that more people would get hurt if extra measures weren't taken to prevent it. Ken West, and Vivian Le,:s refused their 'request, and Limp Bizkit responded saying that they would n'?t perform unless they knew that their fans would be safe. Denied further, one hour later Limp Bizkit was on a plane bound for the United States, officially taking themselves off the bill for the Big Day Out, issuing a statement saying that they prayed for the life of the girl. . .

Ticketholders for the. remammg dates were left without an mtemationSugar anti Soice By Lynn Garcia . This is the story of the A squad cheerleaders, Diane (Marley Shelton), Lucy, Hannah(Rachael Blanchard), Kansas( Mena Suvari), and Cleo at Lincoln High School. The quarterback of the football team, jack, asks Diane out at the beginning of the school year and before Homecoming she is pregnant and they are planning to be married. Their parents are not pleased. jack and Diane then go out and find a quaint place to live, but they have to get jobs in order to afford the living expenses. jack gets a job at a video store and Diane is hired at a .rank branch of a grocery store. As time progresses, Diane soon discovers that without money her baby is' never going to have the kind of life she's accustomed to. After talking it over with the rest of the squad they decide to . rob the bank branch because Diane can open the safe in her sleep. They watch "Point Break" and "Reservoir Dogs" to see how it's done and plan to disguise themselves as Betty Dolls.

They were not compensated in any way, and Australian group Powderfinger, who were already on the tour, were elevated to "headliner" status. Planning for 2001's Big Day Out had been a struggle to begin with. Ken West had rock group Pearl jam confirmed as the international headliner, but as the band was dropped from the bill because of the nine tragedies that had occurred during Pearl- jam's performance at the Rokslide Festiva1 in Europe earlier in 2000. While acknowledging that the incident was not Pearl jam's fault, Limp Bizkit was chosen because the Big Day Out had an "impeccable saftey record" and that was not to be jeopardized. Limp Bizkit have been known to have intense mosh pits during their performances. During their set at Woodstock, fires were set and a riot occurred. Despite their track record, they were chosen to headline the ·event. Promoters could not have "overlooked" the fact that the band has had some violence associated with its performances, but because there were no official "tragedies," they were selected. So where does the blame lie when tragedies, such as the death of an 18 year old girl, occur? People are quick to blame the performers themselves for such incidents. They also place blame with security personnel. But the real blame should lie with the'promoters and organizers. Althougfi. crowd surges and riots are not planned occurrences, promoters of such events as the Big Day Out, the Rokslide Festival, and Woodstock, are responsible to take the proper precautions in case one should, Things such as extra security and barriers for crowd control would help to prevent tragedies such as death and severe injuries from happening. These things should be met With no objections, as the lives of the people who pay to see the acts are at stake.

Students praised Prof. Price Paid For Being a Professional Athlete By Dena Coady • Ex-NBA player Charles Barkley once said, "I am not a role model." What Charles forgot is that no matter what children will always look up to professional athletes as their "heroes." Lately, however, a number of professional athletes have been in the news with their off-court actions. Such as Jason Kidd, who plays for the Phoenix Suns, being arrested for allegedly hittmg his WIfe. Ray Lewis, who not only helped his team win Super Bowl XXXV,but also the game's most valuable player, was in tro~ble after last year:s Super Bowl for bemg present at a fight in which two people were killed. Murder charges against Lewis were dropped once he pleaded gul1ty to obstruction of justice. o Locally, the professio~al athlete who was in the media for his off-the-field problems was Mark Chmura, formerly' of the Green Bay Packers. Chmura Was accused of sexual assault and-:child enticement against his 17-year-old babysitter. According to the testimony, Chmura and the teenage girl were drinking together in a hot tub, and he later had sex with the girl. Two things are wrong with this. First of all, what was Chmura doing at a post prom party with teenagers? Secondly, Why was a 17-year old drinking? Chmura claims he was going on a !,oIftnp WIth the father of the girl havmg the party. So he deci~ed to sleep o over smce they were gomg to leave early. Chmura was found not guilty of all charges. Now there is speculation that the girl might have lying about the whole thing. No matter if Chmura was really not guilty, he shouldn't have been in that situation. Only two people know what really happened that night: Mark Chmura and the 17-year old girl. o Are these the types of people you want your children to grow up saying "I want to be just like him?" As profes~ sional athletes, they should know if they'r~ getting into a potentially illegal situation. Chmura did say in a news conference with the media, "As a professional athlete and a Green 13ay Packer, I put myself in a situation that I shouldn't have and for that I am sorry," . Well, at least Chmura knew he was wrong. The NFL says no teams can talk to Chmura until he meets with commissioner Paul Tagliabue. Until then, Chmura will have to wait to find out his fate. .

Sublett's Sensational Weekend Not Enough UW-Parkside guard Denita Sublett was nothing short of sensationalWhen the Lady Rangers played Bellarmine University last Thursday and Kentucky Wesleyan on Saturday. Her teammate Joy Rodefer was merely wonderful on both occasions but It wasn't enough to keep the team from dropping both games, puttin~ then conference tournament liopes in serious doubt Sublett poured in 26 points andhad four steals against Bellannine while Rodefer had 14 and collected eight rebounds in an 86-73 loss. The Lady Rangers' inability to hit from threepoint land was a problem. Coach Paulette Stein's team shot just 1-101'-13 from ou tside the arc. Amazingly, both Sublett and Rodefer were even better on Saturdayafternoon against Kentucky Wesleyan. Denita shot better than 50 percentfrom the floor to score 28 points whileJoy had 17 points and eight rebounds,but the Panthers still won 86-83.KWCwas led by Leslie Warren with 22points With the losses, the Lady Rangel> were just 3-12 in the Great Lakevanl!} Conference (6-15 overall) going into Tuesday'S game with Lewis Univel5ity.

Men's Basketball: Rangers Drop Two in Kentuckv UW-Parkside men's basketball coach jeff Rutter seldom complains to the media about referees. So when he does question the stripes within earshot of a microphone or notepad you know he's upset. Following UW-Parkside's 66-60 loss to Bellarmine University in Louisville last Thursday, Rutter took exception to a poorly timed taunting call against center NIck Knuth. The call limited Knuth's playing time in the second half and did not allow him to go to the basket as aggressively as he would have without foul trouble. The problem came with 16:51left in the second half. Knuth banged down a jumper to give the Rangers a 33-37 lead, but he was called for taunting after the basket. Moments later he was called for an illegal screen and his evening was effectively over. Fouls limited him to 24 minutes and seven points. "It was a very, very questionable call," Rutter said. "It was nothing more than a competitive expression. Not having [Knuth] was a big factor." Not being able to stop Bellarmine forwards jared McCurry and Adam Etienne also was a big factor. Both scored 14 points each. Marlon Grice led the Rangers with 16, Quincey Moman poured in 13 points and cleared seven rebounds, Brian Maastricht contributed 1l. Saturday's game at Kentucky Wesleyan got ugly early and never got much better. The Panthers, ranked number 10 in the nation for NCAA Division II schools, took a 14 point lead into the locker room at the half. The Rangers cut it to eight but never got closer in an 34-59 loss. Knuth became a fan favorite among KWC partisans with his physical play under the basket in leading the Rangers with 13 points. Brian Coffman had 15, and Q had a game high eight rebounds. Kentucky Wesleyan got 19 from Ronald Evans and 17 from Lorico Duncan. The losses left the Rangers 9-12 overall and 6-9 in the Great Lake Valley Conference going into Tuesday's game with Lewis University, They close out the horne schedule tonight against Southern Indiana and Saturday against SIU-Edwardsville at the De Simone Gym.

Presents niall Radion Feb. 23 Mar. 2 , The Plays at Parkside series presents six performances of the taut drama 'TalK Radio," Feb. 23 through Mar. 2. Performances are in the Augie Wegner Studio Theatre. Playwright Eric Bogasian brings to the theater a one-act play that gves a new definition to the word bold." Main character Barry Champlain is an obnoxious radio personality whose ratings climb with each show. Champlain t'has built a following on the sensational and sarcastic comments he has for his callers. Instead of warm, fuzzy solutions to their problems, he taunts them then disconnects them. "Talk Radio" examines what happens when Cham- . plain takes his "shtick" too far. "'Talk Radio' is an interesting exploration of what people in our society are drawn to, and what our society feeds off of," said Director and UW-Parkside Professor of Dramatic Arts Tom Sunstrom. "Talk Radio" deals frankly with American society, the media, and the , direct impact it can have on individuals. Performers include Rick Ditter, Kevin Sustachek, Brad Kostreva, Jenny Toutant, Joe Piirto, Tim Bohn, Paul Ley, Amanda Albrecht, Dan Grzeskowiak, Melissa Laurence, and Stephanie Holguin. The play's technical crew includes scenic designer Joe Piirto, stage manager Lana Lincoln,· costume designer Judith Tucker-Snider, and lighting designer Steve Sorensen.

The purpose of powwows held hundreds of years ago was to celebrate the 9 fl·m· The event, which was titled "Honoring the Children", was a traditional and educational powwow complete with dances, songs, food, clothing, customs, exhibits, native vendors, artists, and story tellers. Professor Saffiotti-Hughes, English professor and event director, said the powwow was a "stellar, spectacular event." seasonal renewal of life in the spring. In addition, part of the reason for the gatherings was to see who had survived the long, harsh winters and to dance, sing, and pray. TJ-ie tradition of the [owwow has survive the ages and A vendor displays his wares at the is practiced neady intertribal powwow, Saturday, Feb. 3 every weekend All 12 of Wisconsin's American Indian nations, tribes, and bands were represented at the event. Students and community members of other ethnic backgrounds mingled with members of the Ho-Chunk Nation, Potawatomi and Menominee tribes, Ojibwe bands, the Oneida Nation and the Brothertown througnout tne state of Wisconsin. Powwows like the one held Saturday display American Indian culture and explain its rituals and belief to others. "A powwow is about community, family, and sharing," said Professor Saffioti- Hughes. "Our purposes [was] to bring an accurate, relevant cultural opportunity to the area with an emphasis on the traditions of the woodland tribes and nations." Mark Denning, an Oneida Nation member and director of the Southeastern Oneida Tribal Services, acted as master of ceremonies. He explained what was going on at different times during the powwow and encouraged audience members to participate in the intertribal dances. The circle of dancing is a tq1ditional symbol in American Indian culture of the circle of life. "Each dance is different," said ceremonial elder Wayne Swiftbird. "There's a story behind each one of them." As drummers from the Ho-Chunk of Winnebago, the Ojibwe, the Lakota, the Oneida and a more contemporary group of international drummers from Milwaukee beat the drums and sang the songs, tribal members and audience participants danced and circled the drummers. "Every drum has its own type of song, the nation's song," said Swiftbird·. "Only men sing at the drum." The event was sponsored by the UW-Parkside Office of Equity and Diversity, the Sacred Circle student organization, and Parkside Student Activities, as well as many volunteers. UW-Parkside and the Arts: ALIVE! series welcome Ailey II to campus this Saturday. The modern dance troupe merges the energy of New York City's b.est young dancers with the vision of today's best choreographers. The performance begins at 7:30 p.m. in the Communication Arts Theatre.

That may also have been true for Tuesday's program ''Love, Passion, and 'Sorry, I Have a Headache."' By design, the actors-not props and SJ)ecial effects-were meant to be the center of attention. "They' re focus is on the spoken word and on the natural illusion theater creates," said UW-Parkside En~lish Professor Andy McLean. 'This is good modem theater.

Granted, the large words are playing with smaller words, such as, '1 had sex so my boyfriend would n't reject me .. ." and " ... nobody calls me anymore." But the ads are saying girls wfio have sex and become pregnant, and choose motherhood are rejects and nobody, and that having sex is punishable by motherhood. Young pregnant women are not sexual criminals. If people would treat pregnant women with respect, then ,1oung 'A;omen will make better choices regarding prenatal care, adoption, abortion, and motherhood.

A Response I applaud Messieurs Radke, Rosandich, Kazmierski, and Leiting (RR.KL) for caring enough about the student life on campus to write a ~anger article about the film offerings in tlie Union Cinema. It's refreshing to see students getting involved. However, 1 must correct them on a number of factual errors. I began the UW-Parkside Foreign Film Series (FFS) in 1982 with the help of two colleagues, Donald Kurrunings (Eng~sh) and Richard Rosenberg (Economics). The series has consistently featured award-winning films from around the world, made by some of the most creative and influential directors of our time. From its inception it has ~ n enormously popular and finanoally solvent. RRKL claim tha t no one purchases season subscriptions to the FFS. This would come as news to the more than 800 season ticket holders we have this year and have had for most of the past 19 seasons. . _It is true, however, that student partiopation in the FFS is far from overwhelming. From the beginning the FFS attempted to market the program to students, with only modest success. Nev_ertheless, student appreciation of foreign films is important to the program and so we have attempted to reach students in other ways. The program is open to all faculty who believe that any film is relevant to their course material, and so we have had hundreds of students in modern languages, communica tion, history, political science, and University Seminar attend our films free-of-charge. In addition, students in the Honors Program and in International Studies are given special discounts. Progress is slow but I believe we have made some student converts to the enjoyment of filmmaking from other countries and cultures. RRKL refer to $27,144 budgeted to the Union Cinema and imply that it is, at least in part, devoted to foreign films. While I am not familiar with all the intricacies of the Union budget, I can say that the amount devoted to the FFS is zero. The FFS is a self-sufficient program and is entirely separate from any Union funding or programming. The FFS rents the Cinema from tne Union and pays for the projectionist. In fact, in 1998 our patrons financed the vast majority of the $14,000 expense to upgrade the Cinema projection booth with 35mm equipment. RRKL raise concerns about what they consider to be the under-utilization of the Union Cinema. I am sure that if they had contacted the Union staff they would have discovered that the facihty is indeed used, not only for the FFS but other university and community organizations that sponsor films, performances, seminars, and conferences. • All that said, we are still left with the basic point that RRKL raise about the lack of a successful programming es. If there were no ads for the newspape!, !t would not be able to support pnnting costs. Secondly, The Ranger and its staff do not support the viewpoints or opinions of any of the ads we place. We do not advocate the opinions of the NCI'PT nor any other business. The ad asks that readers log on to the website (www.teenpregnancy.org) to learn more. Contrary to what you indicated in your letter ("When people accept the fact that teenagers have sex, they then will finally get decent sex education and access to birth control"), the NCTPT advocates contraceptive use. In fact, there are many links which will inform a person about various contraceptives such as "Encouraging Contraceptive Use Among Sexually Active Teens" and "Depo-Provera: 'The Shot'". I ask anyone who was offended by the ad to log on to the website and learn more about the NCTPT. The webwith more traditional student oriented films. This has been a concern for all of my 20 years at UW-P, but it hasn't been for the lack of trying. There have been a number of hard-working Union staff members (present Union staff included) and enthusiastic students who have tried to create a vital student film program. Showing films of more recent vintage, as RRKL su$gest, is not likely to be a viable option. Even if were allowed by major d istribution companies, the economics of film distribution is such that first run film rentals are extremely costly and the percentage of the gate captured by the distributors is draconian. Thus, campuses are usually left with the option of trying to program creatively with second run and older vintage films. Should RRKL, or any other students, want to discuss ilieir film programming ideas any further, my door is always open. In the meantime, I encourage any students looking for a unique film experience to check out the Foreign Film Series. There are still six films left in this year's program, and tickets prices are prorated. Stop by the RangerCard office and pick up a brochure Sincerely, Norm Cloutier Professor of Economics, and Director, UW-P Foreign Film Series Page3 site also offers an area where people can respond to the organization. I strongly encourage you to direct your statements to the organiz.ation They are the ones who advocate this viewpoint, not The Ranger. The beautiful tlung about this newspaper is that we are open to all viewpoints and opinions. If you or an organization that you are affiliated with would like to run an ad opposing the viewpoint in the NCTPT ad, you are welcome to. This is a democratic newspaper and we vi& respond accordingly. Sincerely, Sarah Olsen Co-Editor Foreign Films Not a Problem There are many things I learned while I was a student at tfi.e University of Wisconsin-Parkside. My entire exploration of the world of communication through my studies as a Communication major, discovering politics, leami~ about history, and revelations throu some dabbling in sciences. It was a so at UW-P where I realized I could tum a passion for reporting and writing into a career. As I look back on my four (or so) years at UW-P, I have always been grateful for the many opportunities I had to expand my understanding and appreciation for the arts. The student plays were fabulous; the art featured in the 6allery by students, professors and outside artists was always fascinating. One of my greatest discoveries was tne foreign film series. I was skeptical at first: You mean I have to read during a movie? But, I loved it. I learned about different countries and different ways of looking at the world through those movies. As a former editor of the Parkside Ranger-oh, about 100 years ago-I still enjoy reading the campus newspaper to find out what is going on. I was disappointed to read in "The Cinema Problem" column of Jan. 25 that "most of us don't care about foreiS!l films." I guess if you really have seen "Happy Gilmore" 100 times, there really is no hope in changing your mind. But, as students, I urge you to try it. Now is the time for you to learn and to explore. There are dozens of places in the Milwaukee-Chicago area where you can catch Adam Sandler's latest, dare I say, art? There are very few where you can find foreign films. You are very lucky to have them in your veiy own cinema. I have no opinion about whether the UW-Parkside cinema needs a greater variety of movies, but you already nave a great series of films that you snouldn't miss. Jennie Tunkieicz BA Communication, 1987 Page4 The Ranger, University of Wisconsin-Parkside Addressing a nation: President George w. Bush Takes Oath By Gina Ciardo President George W. Bush took his Presidential Oath in Washington on a cold, rainy Saturday morning January 20. Following being sworn in at 11am, he ~ke to the nation in his Inaugural Address. The focus of his address was on what he called "civility, courage, compassion and character." Several times he emphasized his pledge "to build a single nation of justice and opportunity." He called for Americans to continue to uphold the princieles of Democracy as well as educate the youth of the country. Suggestions for reaching his goal included "confronting· problems instead of passing them on to future generations" as well as, treating Americans not as strangers and problems but as citizens and priorities. He also asserted that' everyone deserves a chance" and that "no insignificant eerson was ever born." Bush made clear, throughout his s~ch, his purpose of unifying the country. Bush also suggested that we "reclaim America's schools, before ignorance and arathy claim more young lives. He also mentioned his desire to reform Social Security as well as Medicare. In addition, Bush remarked that he will "reduce taxes to ... reward the effort ... Positions available immediately! of working Americans." ThroughOut the Address, Bush made many promises about various political, environmental, and social issues concerning the nation. He spoke about the nations history of being ' a rock in a raging sea." He mentioned "confront[ing] weapons of mass destruction" as well as finding "an honored place" for religion "in our plans and in our laws," yet no problem seems more looming than the one which unfolded in the past several months. Bush made no mention of winning the most controversial election in our nation's history. Maybe it's a nightmare he would rather forget. One tning is for certain, he has he work cut out for him. He begins his presidency with just over half a nation supporting him. paRksfne scaoeae; ceat;eR.

February 8, 2001 survivor II: The Outback By Lynn Garcia On Sunday, January 28th, the most anticipated reality television show Survivor II, debuted. This time th~ sixteen contestants are stranded in the deadly bush of Queensland, Australia. These strangers will be stuck in the outback for 42 days, eliminating one person every three days. In order to survive they will need to build shelter and catch their own food. The contestants are divided into two tribes, Ogakor and Kucha. The Ogakor tribe consists of Amber, Colby! Jerri, Keith, Ke!, Maralyn, and Mitchell. They won the first challenge, the prize bemg a container of waterproof matches and, of course, the immunity· idle. This keeps them from having to vote one of tneir own off the island. The Kucha team includes Alicia, Elisabeth, Jeff, Kimmi, Michael, Nick, Rodger, and Debb. This team was not so lucky and had to go to tribal council to get rid of one of their own. As hard as it was to vote someone off (after all the}' had only been there for two days) there were seven votes against the first survivor to get booted off, Debb. The season of Survivor looks like it is going to be a good one. The Australian Outback is a pretty scary place for anyone to be stranded in. There are all kinds of wild animals including dingoes, wild pig, kangaroo, alligators, and snakes. Not to mention the climate, which can be unbearable at times. The sun is incredibly strong and a yerson can burn within ten minutes o exposure to it. Don't take my word for it, experience Survivor II: The Australian Outbac~ for yourself. The show goes up agamst NBC and its hit "Friends" on T~ursd~ys at 7:00 ~m. Who do you thmk will be the ultimate survivor?

Through the words of Ireland's greatest writers and through depictions of events like the Great Famine, the Irish Actors Theatre Company will brou~ht to life the events that shaped their nation. Tuesday's /erformance of "Love, Passion, an 'Sorry, I Have a Headache'" was a lignthearted look at relationships. Using wisdom drawn from George Bemara Shaw and Maya Angelou, the Beatles and Rolling Stones and others, "Sorry" was just as the "Washington Post" described it: an "hilarious mixture of music and drama about the fever m the blood." Last night, Theatre members staged a free "Pub Night" show in the Stucfent Union. When the}' weren't on a UW-Parkside stage, the Irish Actors Theatre Company has been busy at area schools. They performed a program of Irish songs and poetry at Racine's Fine Arts School on Monday, and stopped at Kenosha's Bullen Middle School Tuesday. They were back in Racine at Park High School on Wednesday, and this morning · they performed "Ireland: Its Genius and Its Tragedy" at Walden III High School. Area educators will experience the Theatre Company's "Celebration of Irish Literature, Music and Song" at the Sixth Street Theatre this afternoon. And they finish their tour Friday at Tremper Hig~ School. The company also met with UWParkside dramatic arts students during the week McLean had several reasons for bringing the Irish Actors Theatre Company to UW-Parkside. He was hoping to instill in his students his love oflive theater, and he wanted to serve the community by celebrating the cultural heritage the Theatre Company represents. And he was hoping to revive the spark that artists in residency bring to the campus. 'We nad a tradition m the ~arly years at UW-Parkside of having a writer or an artist in residence," McLean stated. "I think a resident artist infuses the university with life that it otherwise lacks. And to have these folks here for a week, I think, will be a very exciting experience because faculty and students will be interacting with them professionally, intellectually, aesthetically, and hopefully, socially."

He Ielt two earlyseason Great Lakes Valley Conference (GLVC) losses against these teams were games the Ran~ers should have won. Playing their best and most complete games of the year, UW-Parkside did, indeed, get "a couple of games back" with Thursday's 8f-60 whipping of Northern Kentucky and Saturday's thrilling 81-78 overtime win over Indianapolis. Northern Kentucky came into last Thursday's game ranked third in NCAA Division II with an 18-2 overall record and a 9-2 conference mark. However, it was the Rangers who dominated the game breaking a 21-21 first half tie and never trailing after that. Coach Rutter's team ran up a 37-27 halftime lead and led by as many as 23 in the second half to win for just the second time in 11 tries at home against NKU. Brian Coffman led the way with 24 points on 9 of 9 free throw shooting and 7 of 14 from the floor. Marlon Grice added 16, Nick Knuth 14, and Quincey Moman 12. The win avenged an 83-71 loss on Dec. 2 at Northern Kentucky in which NKU was awarded 39 free throws to UW-Parkside's 16. Saturday afternoon, the Rangers expected to see "The Andy Foster Show" and that's just what they got. The Greyhounds' guard, who came into the game as tne GLVC's leading scorer, accounted for the first 12 points by Indianapolis on the way . to a ~ point performance. But that still wasn t enough as UW-Parkside pulled out an 81-78 overtime victory at the DeSimone Gymnasium. The Rangers trailed by five to seven points throughout much of the second half. But Marlon Grice kept UW-Parkside in the game with several fr_eight train drives to the hoop and Quincey Moman scored six straight points to pull the Rangers to within a point at 66- 65. Nick Knuth put UWP ahead 67-65 with a basket at 17:24 of the second half but Indianapolis tied the game at 69-69 and the teams went to OT. That's when Knuth took over. The Rangers' center scored eight of his 21 points in the extra five minutes, includmg several clutch free throws, to ice the victory and send the Rangers to their ninth win of the year-one more than they had all of last year with seven games remaining in the season. Brian Coffman led al.L UWP scorers with 22 points. The win avenged a 90-88 double overtime loss to Indy on Nov. 30 and gave UW-Parkside a 6-7 record in the GLVC and 9-10 overall. The men play at Bellarmine University tonight. The game can be heard on WLIP (1050 AM) starting at 6:55. The road trip continues at Kentucky Wesleyan on Saturday. Airtime for that game is 3:10 p.m. Women's Basketball: ladv Rangers lose One, Win One The Northern Kentucky women's basketball team brought depth, experience, and a national ranking in the NCAA Division II into last Thursday's game at the De Simone Gymnasium. And they played like one of the top team's in the nation in a 71-48 win against UW-Parkside. The Lady Ranger's then picked themselves up and played a dominant second half to beat Indianapolis 59-52 on Saturday. On Thursday, the Lady Norse, the defending NCAA Division II champions who returned all five of their starters from that title-winning squad, had four players in double figures. Arny Mobley led the way for NKU with 13 points and 12 rebounds while Bridge Flanagan also had 13 for the visitors. NKU's depth showed during a 14-2 second half run that pushed their lead to 20 points and put the game out of reach. UW-Parkside was led by Tiesha Campbell who poured in 16 points and had 8 rebounds. Joy Rodefer had 11 points and Erin Crank had 10 for Coach Paulette Stein's team. Saturday's result was much better. UW-Parkside roared back from a 24-20 deficit shortly after halftime to beat Indianapolis 59-52. Four Lady Rangers reached double figures led by Denita Sublett with 16 points. Rodefer and Jamie Nebel had 13 apiece, and Campbell scored 11 points and contributed nine rebounds. The win improved UW-Parkside's GLVC record to 3-10. The Lady Rangers are 6-13 overall. They play at Bellermine University tonignt and Kentucky Wesleyan, a team they beat easily earlier this year, on Saturday.
