A major exhibit will be on display during the week of November 12 - 17, 1979, in the Parkside Library, and several public lectures and films are planned concurrently. (See schedul of events.) The Exhibit, describing the life of Albert Enistein, is a freestanding framework nearly seven feet high, holding eighteen panels. The growth of Einstein's scientific work, presented in layman's terms, is a main feature, but the oxhibit devotes even more spa.-e to explaining his extensive public and political work, his role in world culture, his philosophy, and his human qualities. Each panel is accompanied by an authoritative text prepared in consultation with leading historians, and there is a rich selection of quotations of Einstein's own words. Illustrations including photographs, drawings, and reproductions of manuscripts, drawn from a wide variety of sources are included. This exhibit was prepared by the American institute of Physics and the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton, where Einstein worked during his stay in the United States. Four public lectures and two special films are also featured. The speakers, two physicists, one astronomer, and one philosopher, all well known, will share some of Einstein's thoughts and discoveries with the general public. These talks are not technical and are addressed to the layman. Two films, especially prepared for showing during the centennial, will be featured. One, "Albert Einstein: Education of a Genius", was specially prepared by the American Institute of Physics to complement the contents of the exhibit; the other, "Einstein's Universe", is created by BBC/ > WGBH Television based on Nigel Calder's book of the same title and is narrated by Peter Ustinov. Both films have received excellent reviews. The Einstein Centennial Week at Parkside is sponsored by the Science Division, Social Science Division, and the UniversityExtension under a grant from the Wisconsin Humanities Committee. The exhibit, lectures, and film shows are free and open to the public. The week's schedule MONDAY. NOVEMBER 12 3:00 P.M. Chancellor Guskin opens the exhibit.

It is the capability of college students to do college level work." That statement by keynote speaker Alan E. Guskin, chancellor of UW-Parkside, set the tone for the two-day statewide conference on basic skills Thursday and Friday attended by 125 educators, primarily from colleges and universities, at UW-P. Participants attended 24 different workshops and heard a report from the 11-member Basic Skills Task Force established by the University of Wisconsin System in 1977 and which issued its findings earlier this year. Guskin, whose university is the only one in the UW System to require students to pass competency tests in writing, reading, mathematics, library use and research papers before they can begin their junior years, said: "There is a difference in what are appropriate basic skill levels for students who do not go on to college and those who do. We're talking about students having the minimum skills to do C or C-plus work in college. "If colleges can't stand up for C-Ievel work, I ask you what we can stand up for," Guskin saia. "We also have an etnical obligation to protect students from getting caught in a revolving door. By that I mean that since we permit most high school graduates to enter our colleges, we have a responsibility to do all we can to help those who have the motivation and potential to acquire the academic skills needed for success." New manager for sweet shop by Denise Sobieski People at UW-Parkside with a definite sweet tooth should surely be acquainted with the "Ye Oldc Barb Lukawski Photo by M. Anderson Sweet Shoppe" in the Union right across from the information desk. Just a look inside will make your mouth water as your eyes gaze across the jars and jars of candies, nuts, and other delectables. The Sweet Shoppe has a variety of goodies ranging from imported French candies to old fashioned candy sticks, plus a few aliment remedies, like cough drops (they come in handy at this time of year). As of this month, there have been additions to the Sweet Shoppe. One of those is the new supervisor Barb Lukawski. She's the one who does the purchasing and manages the operations of the shop. There have been thoughts of other 'changes., too. Ice creamlovers rejoice! In the future the Sweet Shoppe may expand the present counter area and sell ice cream. The possible purchase of a fudge-apple maker machine will delight chocolate and apple lovers. Such improvements will make "Ye Oldc Sweet Shoppe" even more worthy of its name. "Ye Oldc Sweet Shoppe" in the Union is an old fashioned candy store loaded with all kinds of goodies — chocolates, hard candies, licorice, nuts, etc. If you can't find what you're looking for, mention it to the cashier. They'll sec what they can do to satisfy your sweet tooth. Stop by "Ye Olde Sweet Shoppe" — take a look inside Your cravings for sweets will be s a t i s f i e d . ... Members of the Task Force and participants agreed that simply raising entrance standards was not the answer. The Task Force report states raising admission requirements "offers the temptation of simplicity," but would "exclude students with potential success in college. . .who are disadvantaged by basic skills deficiencies." It was pointed out that even many public universities with rigorous admission standards, such as many in California, including Berkeley, and the University of Michigan, have decided they need intensive basic skill programs for their students. 1 he Task Force also reported that their most conservative estimate is that 25 percent of freshmen entering UW campuses are deficient in "basic skill competencies needed for success in traditional entry-level courses." It urged that all freshmen complete placement tests in writing, reading and mathematics prior to enrollment. a procedure that only UW-Parkside currently practices, and that those who need help be required to take appropriate courses. The Task Force said that a major hurdle in implementing skills programs is the cost. "In many (UW) System units the extent of such opportunity is determined less by identified levels of student need than by institutional ability to divert funds from other activities during a period of fixed budgets." The Task Force concluded its recommendations with the statement: "Today's call to return to the basics could die away without an echo. And indeed yesterday's basics — the rigid application ot three R's to a select clientele — are insufficient for future needs. But the call carries an ideal to build upon — the ideal that public education provides fundamental preparation for an educated citizenry.

Zukerman will perform in concert with pianist Marc Neikrug at 8 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 15, in the Communication Arts Theater. The program will include works for violin by Beethoven and Bartok and a Brahms sonata for viola. A limited number of tickets is available through the Parkside Union Information (553 - 2345). Admission is $8.50. Although he is only 31, he is already ranked with the world's greatest classical artists. Praised by the London Times as "absolutely without peer among violinists" and by the British journal Gramophone as "probably the best living viola player," Zukerman regularly appears with major international and American orchestras as well as in recital. He often shares recitals with Issac Stern, Itzhak Perlman, Leonard Rose, the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center and his wife, flutist Eugenia Zukerman. In addition to his post as music director of London's South Bank Festival, he is in his first season as musical director of the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra, succeeding Dennis Russell Davies. The Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra performed in an AOE concert at UW-P last season. Other orchestras he has conducted include the New York Philharmonic, the Philadelphia Orchestra, the Boston Symphony, the Los Angeles Philharmonic and the English Chamber Orchestra. Born in Tel Aviv in 1948, Zukerman began his musical studies with his father and, at the age of 8, entered the Israel Conservatory in Tel Aviv, where he studied with Ilona Feher.

In 1967, he won first prize in the 25th Leventritt Foundation International Competition and received instant world-wide acclaim. His exuberant music-making has been captured in a series of four television specials titled "Here to Make Music" currently being shown on PBS. The series documents Zukerman's life and musical collaborations with Daniel Barenboim, Jacqueline DuPre, Zubin Mehta and Perlman.

But how accurate is this prediction? Armin J. Ott (Jim Ott), full-time instructor at UW-Parkside and part-time weatherman for Channel 4, responded negatively. "It is similar to me predicting a sunny 102 degree day in south-eastern Wisconsin in the dead of winter," said Ott. "If you take a look at the monthly weather predictions such as in the Farmer's Almanac, it is not always accurate. Some of their answers are not definite^ and fit only broad categories." Ott has been the week-end weatherman for Channel 4 for four years after schooling at UWMilwaukee and a similar job at Channel 18. Most of Ott's weather predictions are dependent on whether Sporting & Athletic Equipment One of The Midwests Largest Selections DISCOUNT PRICES 14th Ave. at 62nd St. Established in 1930 Jim Ott shows class just how much snow we'll get this winter. Photo by M. Anderson such predictions are short or longterm. When Ott makes a short-term prediction (up to 24 hours), he mainly uses surface maps and prior knowledge of weather conditions. If a long-term prediction is made, Ott relies on the use of the computer. But Ott did mention that computers do not necessarily make correct predictions either. "The monthly computer outlook predicted above normal precipitation in Southeastern Wisconsin, but in fact, we had a dry September on record."

Helgeson Ivegot Pabst Blue Ribbon on my mind" For every human activity, there seems to be a code of conduct. People are continuously being labelled "acceptable" or "unacceptable, based on their most recent actions while under the influence of drugs. For instance, it is usually acceptable tO~grind a cigarette out in a n ashtray and it is usually unacceptable to grind a cigarette out in the palm of your host's hand. The reason for this almost universal policy is obvious. There are even some subcultures who proclaim abhorrence of traditional WASP etiquette, that label behavior of peers acceptable or un; some of the most antietiquette concepts, when conceived by the human social mind, develop an etiquette all their own. Like every other human activity that begins with a small congregation of followers, and grows slowly into an accepted practice, the activities of the drug subculture have evolved into conventions. Drug use and abuse is supposedly the symbol of the liberated 70's. Come on now. We re all just as hung up now as we ever were. We've just applied old rules to a new game. We just have to be loaded, high, or tripping to exhibit our civilized behavior. The conventions of drug abuse are simple enough, once you are acquainted with them. It's not some complicated Dear Miss Manners: I have been cordially invited to a Charity Ball for the nephews of the grandfathers of the veterans of the War. Can I wear my leisure suit with my toupee? No, the rules are much simpler. First, never suggest usage of certain substances unless you are willing and prepared to offer contribution of the substancefs) or you are absolutely sure your charismatic personality will carry you through the rest of the evening. Nobody likes a leech. Certain substances cannot be mixed politely, so don't do it. Most druggies overlook the obvious health hazards, so etiquette does too. When you mix anisette and angel dust, you will become a real menace to polite society. You will become what is known to liqueur lovers as a Devil Diluter, and what is known to dust lovers as a Liqueur Licker. Either of these two labels, once you've got them hanging around your neck like a price tag on a Christmas gift, can sure make it tough to be acceptable by anyone's standards. It you want to do any unpopular — i.e. unacceptable — drug, keep it quiet. Don't blab that you've just done a whole bottle of cellulite diet pills, or that you know where you can get together with a crate of Sinu-Tab. You will b e laughed at. It you a re male, it is acceptable while under the influence, to talk a lot, become philosophical, get depressed, smile continuously, or attempt seductions with classic lines like "Did you ever listen to Barry Manilow on a waterbed?" If you are female, you may giggle a lot, discuss personal matters with strangers, become enlightened religiously or get horny enough to talk to men who listen to Barry Manilow anywhere. So, don't feel as if you've fallen into a time warp that dropped you right into the middle of a 1950's cocktail party the next time you share a joint with a few friends. It's nothing to be ashamed of. After all, you're only human. 'Fefu' very well done by Steve M. Dankert This 1977 winner of the OBIE for distinguished playwriting and direction appeared at the Parkside Theatre October 25th through 29th. On the whole the audience seemed to enjoy the production. The play, set in the 1930's, evolves around the character Fefu (played by Donna Dutchings) and various friends of hers. Their coming together is a result of organizing for a fund drive. As the play progresses one comes to see more of each of Fefu's friends' background and personality. Each of her friends may be a portrayal of one of eight facets of personality contained within every woman, any one of which may surface at some time. (This could certainly account for the stereotypical unpredictability of women by men or by themselves). Two aspects of the character Fefu's actions in the play is her intelligence and her wish to avoid being molded into a life portrayed by her friend Christina (played by Mary-Beth Kelleher). Christina, a conventional, low-keyed, matronly type, is an apparent antithesis of Fefu. The whole thrust of the play seems to be this fight against the conventional social molds put on women, and the consequences of going against the flow are brought out in the character Julia (played by Sarah Spencer). Julia, who is now confined to a wheelchair as a result of a strange hunting accident, was found to be, before the accident, of the same personality and outlook as Fefu. Julia maintains that she would have died, ekcept that she recanted her wish to go against the grain of society. She was therefore allowed by the "Judges" to live, though in other than perfect health. These Judges keep very strict control over her thoughts and attitudes, and threaten death if Julia ever strays from the beaten path again. These Judges represent the whole social environment : rules, customs, and norms by which society is supposed to reward and punish women. Julia helps Fefu a little in finally realizes that she too is travelling the same rough road. Fefu's cognizance of the Judges' identity is fatal. The Judges impute this knowledge to Julia and, as a result of breaking the "rules" Julia is fatally wounded by another accident of the same bizarre nature, as the first one. A very well done play. Mood was set well, and facial expression and poise fit the sense of the various situations. The other actors deserve to be acknowledged for the fine job of acting. These are: Mary Ann Lulewicz, who played Cindy; Patricia B. Casciaro, who played Emma; Mary Stankus, who portrayed Paula; Gail G. Ross, who portrayed Sue; and Rita R.

RANGER WLLC D139 LP Review 'Restless Nights' by Charles Clifton Karla Bonoff — RESTLESS NIGHTS, produced by Kenny Edwards. This being only her second recording to date, Karla Bonoff has developed into a sensitive writer and singer. She allows her voice to gently blend in with the lyrics — not over power them. On many of the songs she sounds like a younger Carly Simon. "Restless Nights," the title track on side one, contains words conveying feelings many of us have felt before. She sings of a woman who has tried to be faithful to an old love, but to her new lover she confesses: Those restless nights So warm and wild WOW!

From there she moves into a real tear-jerker, in which a woman finds out she has lost her love the hard way, "The Letter." She wrote that you said You needed her to face the world I wish that it could all just be . erased I can't believe shccould take my place. The LP doesn't contain any blaring arrangements that would overshadow Bonoff s magic touch with the words — just an extra attraction that adds to the beauty of this album. Karla Bonoff RESTLESS NIGHTS certainly won't cause any restless nights. Best Cuts: "Restless Nights," "The Letter," "Baby Don't Go," "Loving You," and "The Water Is Wide."

The advocate can be with you at the hospital to explain the various tests and procedures involved in the exam and, if necessary, defend your right to kind and sensitive treatment. The decision to talk to police is entirely the victims'. While KASA wants to see every attack reported, they do not insist nor do they withhold their services from someone who decides not to report. If police are involved, the advocate can usually be present during the interrogation and any subsequent questioning.

Edenhauser Tess Manzano serves the ball for Parkside during Parkside's victory game against Carthage. The UW-Parkside team lost to Carthage later in the tournament. by Donald Scherrer The Parkside women's volleyball team gave a superb performance Saturday, losing the final and vital match of the Ranger hosted Division II volleyball tournament of the Wisconsin Women's Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (WWIAC) to Carthage. Parkside, in the first match. Cross-country took two in a row from Marquette, winning 15 - 10 and 17 - 15. Northland then fell to Carroll College in two out of three matches, and next loss two straight to Marquette. Carthage then defeated Carroll in two straight, and while still hot, took two away from Parkside, 15 - 16, 15 - 11. Next it was Marquette over Carroll in two straight, and Parkside over Marquette 15 - 10 and 15 - 12. Parkside then marched over Carthage in three straight games. 15 - 10. 15 - 4. 15 - 13. but lost the final and vital, hotly contested match to Carthage in five games: 15 - 8. 2 - 15. 6 - 15, 17 - 15. and 15 - 10.. Overall. Parkside's women's volleyball team put in a strong showing in a long and grueling day. and most likely lost the final match to Carthage because of mass fatigue, since Carthage had played only three matches before this final challenge, whereas Parkside played five. Carthage now goes to the regional competition of the Association for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW) November 16-17 in Dayton. Ohio. Had Parkside won, they would now have a place in the competition. Currently there arc six state champs, one host school, and one bid. Coach Linda Henderson has put in for that bid but will not know the results of her request until Sunday. I his leaves Parkside with a 29-22- 1 record for the season. Henderson remains optimistic for her team s chance of getting the bid. and cited the superior performance of her athletes and the great attendance and support of the tans for the team's par excellence. Team gears up for nationals by Walt Remondini After a season abounding in grueling practices and tough races, the Parkside men's cross country team is now gearing up for the culmination of the years work, the NAIA Nationals to be held here at Parkside this Saturday. November 10. A good warmup for the Ranger team came on Saturday, October 27th when they participated in the NCAA Division II meet at Eastern Illinois University. The meet carried added importance because the top five individuals and top four teams in the meet wbuld qualify for the Division II National meet to be held this year in Riverside, California. Parkside, however, was able to do no better than eleventh, a very respectable finish in a competitive field that included a total of thirty-three teams. The top finishers for the Rangers,were Bill Werve who was 31st overall and Dave Mueller, who finished 49th. Coach Lucian Rosa's primary objective now is for his team to run well in their final meet with the hopes of improving upon last year's 19th place finish. It would be a fitting conclusion to what, overall, was a verv promising year for a young but rapidly improving Ranger team. ~l ^ fj! : - i *-; > v Jt Presents OLD STYLE ^ NIGHT Featuring Wood Song Union Sauare November 14, 8pm Free Admission A Photo by B.

Burman sets new course record by Doug Edenhauser With the growing success of Parkside's cross-country program on the men's side, a tradition of good athletes being produced by the coaches is on the rise. The women are also establishing a tradition of their own that started with Kim Merritt a few years ago. Although the quantity of runners on the distaff side is lacking, certainly the quality is excellent. Freshman sensation Wendy Burman is the main reason for success this season. Last weekend Miss^ Burman, along with teammate Barb Osborne took part in the Schalinske named 1979-80 golf MVP Todd Schalinske, a sophomore from Racine (Horlick), has been named most valuable player on the 1979-80 UW-Parkside golf team, Coach Steve Stephens announced. Schalinske, who was Parkside's top golfer in ten rounds this year, averaged 79.4 strokes per round in leading UW-P to a fifth place finish in the NA1A District 14 Tournament. He was also awarded his second letter as was Brian Graham, also a sophomore from Horlick. Graham was picked by his teammates as captain of the squad. Other letterwinners, all winning awards for the first time, are Oak Creek freshman Mark Peterson; Racine (Green Bay West) junior Mike Redfearn; Perrysburg (Genoa), Ohio, freshman Tim Rudey; and Kenosha (Tremper) freshman Bob Sobol.

I Association for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW) midwest regional cross-country meet at Michigan State University in East Lansing, Michigan. The 5,000 meter race attracted the top runners and teams from Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio and West Virginia. Although only 28 girls competed in her division, Burman finished ahead of some of the best runners in the midwest. Each runner had to qualify in regional competition to enter the race. Burman, a freshman from Fon du Lac (Goodrich) won the event while setting a- new course record with a time of 18:19. Coach Bob Lawson called this race 'probably the best race of her life.' Sophomore Barb Osborne from Kenosha finished the race in 14th place. Both girls qualified for the AIAW national meet to be held November 17 at Florida State University in Tallahassee. "Wendy is such a great competitor that she is a pleasure to coach." added Lawson. Coaches rounding up tracksters now With the coming of winter just around the corner, coaches are scurring around readying their teams for the upcoming men's and women's track seasons. Official practice begins on the 26th of November, but all those interested should get in touch with the coach as soon as possible. Barb Lawson is the women's track coach and she can be reached at 553-2257 or her office in room 131 in the P.E. Building. Bob Lawson and Lucian Rosa are the men's coaches. Lawson can be reached at 553-2153 or in P.E. 139. Rosa's number is 553-2310. Wendv Burman Photo by B. Passino Exceptional Opportunity for learning experience.

Okay, awesome. P. Diddy and Jennifer Aniston are proud of you. This will happen on the following day: One of the candidates will have won, a large portion of us will have lost a topic to drunkenly debate, and (yes it's true,) life will go on. Some of us will keep our bumper stickers — some of us will have to break out the Goo- Gone. I'm getting to the point here. Now, I'm probably the furthest thing from a political science major - but I'm going to conclude that the President for the next four years won't drastically change our everyday lives. So go ahead and direct your attention to something that will. The issue I'm going to explain needs to be recognized by the young voters, because it will affect them more than anyone. Kenosha's oh-so-lovely lawns have slowly filled with support for and against the issue that I've yet to hear any students speak about. Taking into account the perfectly-groomed yards now stabbed with cheapo signs, these homeowners must be awful passionate about this cause they're advertising. Which one, you ask? The proposed casino. The red "Yes Jobs, Yes Casino!" signs are everywhere, and 1 know you've all noticed the "It's all about GREED!" billboards. Knowing nothing of the issue at the time, 1 giggled when I saw it for the first time; imagining the whole casino idea had struck a moral chord with our church-going residents — the whole "gambling is wrong" / seven deadly sins thing. Anyway, 1 was wrong. I've since found that many opposed to the casino are in no way opposed to gambling; this issue runs far deeper and dirtier than any of that silliness. As October draws to a close, we're seeing Fahrenheit 9/11" discussion at UW-Parkside On Page Men's Soccer Team Win's 400th Game! On Page the Kenosha News and local TV & radio stations cover this topic on a near daily basis — but again, you'd have to be totally engulfed to understand what they're speaking about. I have turned into a nerd researching this thing ...so I'll put my nerdiness to good use and lay it out. The pro-casino argument: We'll get much-needed jobs, entertainment, and tourist dollars. Jobs and money - what could be better, right? Those opposed would have to be the anti-jobs/money/ fun committee. Well, it's not that simple ...though 1 w ish it was. The best way to put it? We'll be getting a giant McDonalds, one that would offer nearly 3.000 positions. The highpaying positions obviously filled by those in the tribe itself, we Kenoshans should be vers7 excited about fantastic careers in cashier & custodial fields. Tourist dollars? Let's be honest here: Continued on page 8 2 The Ranger News October 23, 2004 Letter From the Editor Greetings, and thanks yet again for reading the current issue of UW-Parkside's student newspaper. So far, it has been a pleasure trying to provide our local community with news, sports, and entertainment. I feel like we've come a long way since I first started working for The Ranger News, but the publication industry is always involves an uphill battle because you're always trying to improve and outdo your previous issues. People often point out mistakes they find to fne or give me suggestions on what could have been better, and 1 love it. i appreciate all the critiquing I can obtain and vow to use it to improve in anyway 1 can. But 1 also want our readers to know that we work on each issue right up until the deadline, finding whatever errors we can and fixing them. When the deadline comes, we have to be done, errors or not. To me, the newspaper is sort of an art. I once heard that a great painter would never be done with his painting, because there would always be something he would want to change, because the art was a constant work in progress. But just as a painter has to eventually put down his paintbrush and move onto the next campus, when our deadline comes we have to move to print and start thinking about the next issue. On a different note, I am truly excited about this current issue. When was the last time anyone has heard of a 28-page issue of The Ranger News? Well, with open arms we have welcomed the Satirical Writers Guild to provide a much needed humor section to the newspaper. In this issue and all following issues (hopefully), you will find The State, written, edited, and designed by the Satirical Writers Guild. They come up with great stuff so I hope you give it a read and let us know what you think. Have a great couple weeks, and you'll hear from me again when we know who the president will be for the next four years. Henry D. Gaskins Editor-in-Chief Want to work for The Ranger News?

Bush: 'Fahrenheit 9/11' and the 2004 Election." The subject of the discussion was the film "Fahrenheit 9/11," the controversial documentary by filmmaker Michael Moore, which was released in theaters earlier this year and recently on video October 5. According to Dr. Mary Leonard, the purpose of the discussion was, "to have an open, but civilized discussion of the controversies that the film raises." The format of the discussion was for each member of the panel to discuss his or her area of insight and then the discussion was openeduptotheaudience to ask questions to the panel members or comment on their own perception of the film. Leonard acted as moderator of the discussion. The panel consisted of Professors Ed Schmitt, Jay McRoy and Anne Gurnack, as well as the president of the Parkside Studeni Government Association, Chris Semenas. Each member of the panel offered important insight as to different ways in which the film "Fahrenheit 9/1T" has affected our society. Professor Schmitt gave the audience some historical background on the media's influence on elections and politics in the past. Schmitt informed the audience that Moore's style of documentary filmmaking could be compared to the "muckraking tactics" of the American journalists, novelists, and critics of the past. Muckrakers attempted to expose the abuses of business and the corruption in politics by exposing the unfavorable actions of their subjects. Professor McRoy, a film scholar, offered his insight on "Fahrenheit 9/11" as a documentary. McRoy did not credit or discredit Moore's film one way or another but had this to say to the audience, "However 'real' a film may claim to be, it is still a distortion of reality ... the very act of pointing a camera or splicing scenes together obscures or hides as much as it reveals, so to say that a film is misleading, bias or not truthful, shows a misunderstanding of what film is in the first place, which is an optical illusion." McRoy emphasized that audiences should, "view everything with a critical perspective and view as many sides of an issue as possible." Professor Anne Gurnack, a political scientist, commented on how she felt the film may be influencing the election. "The snippets, the scenes, the reviews that went all over the world and throughout our country did have an impact, they forced people to look at this issue." Gumack's statistics showed that although this film may have influenced the polls upon its initial release, as we come closer to Election Day the polls show no more favor for Senator Kerry than they did before the release of this film. PSGA president, Chris Semenas commented on how he felt the film has influenced his generation. "We're not following Michael Moore because he's anti-Bush, we're following Michael Moore because he talks the truth to us. Moore's willing to tell us things we're not seeing in t he newspaper." On October 8, Moore appeared in Milwaukee on his 68-city tour that included the Milwaukee Theatre as its 17th stop. Moore commented gratefully on the roar of applause he received after walking out on the stage as, "The warmest welcome he'd received, yet, on this tour." In his speech, Moore talked in reference to one of the issues that Semenas brought up, the media. Moore had this to say about the media and its coverage of the War on Terror in Iraq, "The media collectively decided not to do their job. They should have been asking the questions that you and 1 don't get to ask, the job that you and I depend on them to do. They spent the months leading up to the war flying American flags all over the TV screen, not asking the hard questions, and not demanding the evidence for the weapons of mass destruction. They, in my opinion, are as responsible for the war as Bush." Another issue Moore discussed, which also came up in the panel discussion held at UW-Parkside the night before, was his depiction of the American soldiers in his film. A student in the audience of the UW-Parkside discussion raised the question of why Moore included scenes in his film that did not portray the American soldiers favorably. Moore addressed this point in his own speech by saying, "I'm the one that gave them [the American soldiers] their voice. The soldiers on the streets of Baghdad were allowed for the first time to tell their experiences of Iraq because they won't show them on the evening news." There was quite a high number of Bush supporters that turned out for the UW-Parkside discussion, charging Moore with unfairly representing President Bush in his film and accusing Moore of taking cheap shots at the President's state of emotional vulnerability. Moore had this to say about the Republicans' response to his film that has caused quite a lot of controversy, "The right wingers have made like seven documentaries in the last month attacking me. That's ok, it just shows their total level of fear and frustration that "Fahrenheit 9/11" has really put them through." In his closing, Moore had this to say about his film, "You should not have to pay S8 or $9 to go to the movie theater to learn information they [the government] should've given you for free." What you choose to do with the information Moore has revealed in "Fahrenheit 9/11" is up to you as a viewer. Whether you agree or disagree with Moore's viewpoint, the main point that Moore wants to get across is that we should all take an active role in our government and allow ourselves to question everything it poses to us, not stopping until we feel we have been told the whole truth. The most important thing we can do to accomplish that is get out and vote on November 2, and know that we tried to do our best as citizens of this countiy.

Her desk is cluttered with US Department of Justice reports, statistics, and advocacy and referral service pamphlets. Her enthusiasm sparkles, though, when she talks about the measures that are being taken against campus sexual assault under the new ASPEN (Advocates Supporting Parkside and Educating for Nonviolence) program. Campus reports from the Clery Act show that two sexual assaults were reported from January to December of 2003. That is a decrease from recent years, however most studies figure that only 10 percent of all campus sexual assault is ever reported. Schlecht confirmed this, saying, "Unfortunately, victims of sexual assault will tend to blame themselves, as if there's nothing YOUR AD COULD BE HERE. Advertise wrtti The Ranger News! Contact: Avi Grewal (Ad Manager) uwp_ ads@yahoo.com to report." Police Chief Michael Marzion added, "Many of the offenders may not even realize that they're committing sexual assault. The real project here isn't arresting rapists, it's educating to prevent this from happening. Most people - victims as well as perpetrators - don't realize what defines rape." The state of Wisconsin's Act 177 Section 940.225 defines sexual assault as sexual contact made without consent, the ability to consent, or is coerced by threat of violence or intoxicants. For instance, one assault that occurred last year consisted of a young man putting his hand down a woman's shirt. This qualifies as fourth degree sexual assault. He faces criminal as well as university prosecution. Since the two governments are independent of one another, it is not a case of double jeopardy. Overwhelmingly, women tend to be the victims of sexual assault and men the perpetrators. However, it's important to note that while one in three women are predicted to experience sexual assault at some point in their fives, one in six men are also victims. Nearly half of all female victims experience sexual assault while they are in college, and in 90 percent of these cases, the victim and the perpetrator know one another. Half of all reported offenses of college women occur in a date setting. "Acquaintance rape and date rape are our biggest concern," Schlecht said. "That's why it's so important to educate students and faculty. We all remember hearing 'stranger danger' as kids and thinking that we should be afraid of a shadowing figure jumping out at us in a dark alley. But that's just not true. We need to be aware of the people we know." Most instances of sexual assault on UW-Parkside's campus are directly related with the abuse of alcohol. "Victims of sexual assault might tend to think that it's their fault because they were drunk. That's not an excuse for a rapist, though. It's not the victim's fault, ever. It's the fault of whoever is violating and disrespecting someone's body," said Schfect. Marzion expressed his feelings about the issue poignantly, "In my opinion, there seems to be one group that is really empowered to stop this crime and that's men, because men are generally the perpetrators of this crime." Schlecht agreed, saying, "Some men think that a woman fighting back is somehow part of'the game.' It's not. It's part of rape." And unfortunately rape and other forms of sexual assault are not unthinkable possibilities on UW-Parkside's campus. "Part of the ASPEN program," Marzion said, "and probably the biggest part, is educating the community not only aboui what rape and sexual assault are, but what the long-term effects are on both the victim and the perpetrator." ASPEN is an expanded version of what used to be Surviving Sexual Assault, a program of the Parkside Violence Prevention Project, which is funded by a grant from the US Department of Justice. The focus of the ASPEN program is largely educational. Aside from public education activities, like tabling and hosting seminars, the program organizes sexual assault advocates. In previous years, SSA has organized and trained between 40 and 50 volunteer advocates. Consisting of students, faculty and staff", advocates act in a variety of capacities, from assisting victims with anonymously reporting the crime, to helping them through difficult investigation or court procedures, or helping victims communicate with their friends and family. Schlecht and Marzion both emphasized that the role of the advocate was "To empower the victim and help them become a survivor." Working in coalition with students, faculty, staff, and organizations - such as Peer Health Educators and The Women's Center - as well as offcampus support services, campus police are devoted to increasing community awareness about this issue, as well as about domestic abuse and stalking, the latter of which has been an increasingly common phenomenon. "A lot of what we've been getting lately are reports of Internet stalking, and it's usually after a break up," Schlecht said. "[Being an advocate] is a really rewarding experience," said Marzion. "It's unfortunate that so few men take any interest in it. Sometimes talking to a police officer or a person who seems like an authority figure can be ... difficult. It helps to have trained advocates that are just concerned citizens there. Being an advocate is really one of the best things that anyone could do. Especially men." Schlecht recommends that everybody come. "They can get a better understanding of the issue, and maybe they can help someone - a person they know, a friendora family member-who has been victimized become a survivor." She reinforced that the structure of ASPEN and advocate training is nonhierarchical. "Nobody is there to define power relationships. When we're in that room talking about these issues, it's not teachers, students and officers. All of those roles fade away. We're just people who are concerned about stopping sexual assault." Everyone in the UW-Parkside community is invited to attend the ASPEN training session, which will take place on November 6 from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Interested students, faculty, and staff can register by calling the Health Center at campus extension 2366. The training is free and lunch will be provided.

The Ranger News October 23, 2004 Haunted Tunnels Offer Students a Frighteningly Good Time On Campus BY NATALIE STOLLENWERK This Halloween, UW-Parkside students will not have to venture far from campus to get a good scare. This year the Parkside Activities Board (PBA), the Residence Hall Association (RHA) and the Parkside Association of Wargamers (PAW), will be hosting a haunted house event called the Haunted Tunnels. The Haunted Tunnels will be making its frightening debut on October 27, and again October 28, in Molinaro Hall from 7-10 p.m. Students who dare to attend the hair-raising Haunted Tunnels will enter on the main floor of Molinaro Hall and then take the elevator down to the spine-chilling tunnels below where they will be lead through a horrifying maze that will let them out in the Den. Due to the "terror-iffic" turnout at last year's Haunted Hallways event, which took place in the Ranger Hall and was put on by the RHA, the special events coordinator of PAB, Kristy Radspinner, thought it would be great to get more organizations in on this Halloween festivity and make it even more enjoyable for this year's brave attendees. "1 mainly was attempting to find more co-sponsors for this event as PAB was interested in putting this event on with the collaboration of multiple groups to involve a variety of people and to be sure we would be putting on an excellent event." Preparing for such a "spooktacular" event takes a lot of time and hard work. Radspinner welcomes anyone who is interested in helping make the tunnels an even more frightening success to contact her. "We are all working very hard toward making this event the best it can be, and in doing so, can always use more help.

Foreign Film Night The Magdalene Sisters October 27 • 9 p.m. Mullans riveting sophomore feature travels four decades hack in time. It's an era when girls who stray are condemned to involuntary servitude at commercial laundries run by merciless Sisters of Mercy. The idea behind these Magdalene Asylums is that poor living conditions, inadequate food and hard work, seven long days a week, equals atonement for sins. The young women feel caught between Catholic guilt and the suspicion they've done nothing to deserve such inhumane treatment. Student Foreign Film Series Sponsored by die Student Center & Foreign Film Series Union Cinema Free Admission Concessions will be open! Dude, Where's My Professor? BY TAL GOLDWATER and MOLLY MEIER On October 11, students who were supposed to be starting what is called a weekend college course got a big surprise. The professor listed on the course syllabus was Professor Wang; however, after a five minute speech lie walked out of class. Students were left waiting in the classroom, while another professor was supposed to show up and teach the class. Wang, who is a tenured professor at UW-Parkside, has been here since 1994 and is said to have had good reason to left the class. He is quoted as saying, "I feel the department chair unfairly assigned me to teach Introduction to Sociology as a weekend course." He also said the specific reasons for not teaching the class were that "the department is only required to teach three courses for the weekend college the entire year and I am already teaching one." Wang said, "In 1997 the executive committee decided that it is a departmental responsibility after 1 p ointed out as well as other faculty members that there are structural problems assigning one individual member to teach weekend college without compensation." Upon further discussion with Wang he said, "Sociology 101 isn't even a weekend course. Weekend courses are designed for upper level courses, not introductory courses which every professor is eligible to teach." What does the sociology department think about Wang's actions? The department says that the issue is still under litigation, and they could not provide any further information. As for the Sociology 101, Associate Lecturer, Professor RogerOhr will teach it so the students will not be affected by what happened Monday night. This case is one of the first cases that a professor walked out of class in UW-Parkside history. As for Wang, he has not heard anything from the department about the incident.

October 13 marked the close of the "official" presidential debates between challenger John Kerry and incumbent George Bush at Arizona State University. During the previous two weeks, the US media has pummeled citizens with access to major news sources with sound-bites and "post-game analysis." One almost expected John Madden to give a play by play, complete with a tangle of action lines, arrows and other geometric representations, amid the meticulous and rigorous rules of engagement agreed upon by the respective Bush and Kerry campaign companies in their "Memorandum of Understanding." Prior to the debates themselves. Commission on Presidential Debates co-chairman Frank Fahrenkoph thanked sponsors American Airlines, Continental Airlines and Anheuser- Bush. The Commission is privately, not federally, subsidized. Moderator Bob Schiefer sat with his back to the audience, noting beforehand that, "people are having debate parties like they were Super Bowl parties." Kerry and Bush stood behind podiums placed stage right and stage left, respectively, beneath a huge eagle that carried in its beak a banner reading, "Ike Union and The Constitution Forever." Both wore red ties. The plot of their final debate, intended to focus on domestic affairs, seemed to follow that of a Wimbledon Cup finals match. Bush accused Kerry of having an "inconsistent" Senate record on just about every policy issue that was brought up, using "bait and switch" campaign promises, and being unfit to defend the United States against a ubiquitous "terrorist menace." Kerry accused Bush of "lying to the American people," missing the opportunity to catch Osama bin Laden, and isolating the US from it's global neighbors. Kerry waved off the accusations of inconsistency as instances of crossing the party lines, while Bush maintained that national defense requires "firm resolve." Both candidates claim to be very faithful men, and congratulated each other's wives and parenting abilities. They also "think every human life is precious," and vow to" kill the terrorists." There are some inconsistencies, to say the least. In other news, the alternative parties debate received virtually zero media coverage in southeast Wisconsin, aside from one hour of broadcast on C-SPAN. Held at Cornell University on October 10, Constitution, Green, Socialist and Libertarian Party presidential candidates were seated on the stage as they fielded questions from Cornell students. It seems that Ralph Nader can't get an invite anywhere. While Bush and Kerry both took their respective Republican and Democrat perspectives on the social spending topics of job development, minimum wage, health care, social security and education, neither of them touched on an issue that was prominent in the alternative parties debate - that of the election system itself. Alternative parties are pointing to archaic ballot systems as one possible cause of both low-voter turnout, and a strictly bimodal distribution of Republican and Democrat support on the presidential ticket. One proposed remedy for the "wasted-vote" syndrome many self-identified moderates encounter in choosing what many consider to be lesser of two evils was a commitment to the concept of republican democracy. This would entail informing oneself of all candidates, their parties and platforms, as well as each candidate's particular stance on policy issue; citizens would then vote for the candidate who best represents them. Under current practices, the Alternative Party candidates say citizens are either voting against the party or candidate they oppose, or they are not voting at all. On a more revolutionary note, candidates also suggested that state elections commissions consider altemativeballotsystems, such as Instant Runoff Voting. Under the IRV system, voters designate their first, second and third preferences for candidates. While this system might increase vote distribution more equitably among a wider selection of party-supported and independent candidates, it doesn't seem as if it would do much for increasing voter turnout substantially. Meredith McGhee, executive director of the Alliance for Better Campaigns, seemed to agree. "We need a more robust and more competitive election system," she said. "The federal election committee seems like it's designed to do nothing."

MO 63017 Jason Kucma Third-Year Student 8 The Ranger News October 23, 2004 Continued from Cover Story Kenosha is a just-passing-through town for vacationers. Milwaukee and Chicago are destinations — Ken osha, not quite. If we're famous for anything, it's the hundreds of locally owned bars. The introduction of a huge operation like this is fatal to the little pubs, killing all competition with the Wal-Mart "let's suck small businesses dry" effect. The drinks will be free for gamblers — what bar can compete with that? Accordingly, the casino will see most of its revenue coming from residents of the Kenosha/Racine and surrounding areas. Studies show that households earning less than 25 K per year are the biggest gamblers; i.e., ones that basically can't afford to lose it in the first place. Because the casino pays zero (yes, ZERO) in taxes, the money is zapped from the cycle — leaving all areas of small business suffering in a domino effect. The holes are many, and they're everywhere. On top of this, the future casino is being modeled after a casino operation in New London, Connecticut called the Mohegan Sun. The Menominee tribe has already received $3.1 million from the Mohegan tribe, in efforts to get the ball rolling in Kenosha and the Mohegans are expected to take over when finally established. Not good, and you'll see why. In a "learn from their mistakes"-type deal, two Kenosha County Supervisors were directed to visit and report their findings on the effect the Mohegan Sun has had on it's host and surrounding communities. They found some frightening statistics, ones we will most definitely see as well. New London County reports these increases since the Mohegan Sun's arrival: 34% - Narcotic Arrests 30% - Calls for Police Service 22% -911 Emergency Calls: 61% - Arrests for Driving Under the Influence (DUI) 104% - Speeding Offenses 350 % - Prostitution Arrests The report quotes Sgt. Powers, a Resident State Trooper from Connecticut, citing increases in vehicular traffic, money laundering, embezzlement, forgeries, drug traffic, and financially related suicides. For Kenosha's Chief of Police, Dan Wade, actually looking into the issue of crime and the statistics proved too difficultatask. He and Kenosha District Attorney Bob Jambois. probably should've done their homework, considering their eager endorsement of the casino project in a recent media address. And what's scarier are those with influential rank who simply ignore the obvious costs for their own benefit; could be those darn dollar signs blinding them. Fun fact time: Did you know the D.A.'s wife, Beverly Jambois, just happens to be in charge of the "Yes Jobs, Yes Casino" campaign? Maybe wifey's paycheck is the reason for his "thumbs up." Sketchy, sketchy. I feel a Bob Dylan quote coming on... "Money doesn't talk, it swears," and we all have a price if I'm not mistaken. Casinos, like money, breed corruption — it's common knowledge. Our community leaders might like the fact that these Indian tribes are legally allowed to contribute to political campaigns. Back in 2002, Jim Doyle received a whopping $725,000 to use in his campaign for governor. Doyle announced generous deals with Indian casinos shortly after elected, even though his entire political career showed opposition togamblingexpansion. Give me $725,000 and I'd probably begin to see things your way, too. This worries Milwaukee County's District Attorney, Michael McCann, who originally came to Wisconsin for it's reputable and clean government. "The sum of money that went into the governor's race should have been a wake-up call," states McCann, "they can do the same thing on a local level." The dirty deals are plenty with this thing, and the social costs of a casino are incredibly high. Kenosha residents, clearly playing underdog to the milliondollar Mohegans, are funding the "Vote No" campaign. F ve based my reasoning on loads of research and fact, and it's all flashing "SHADY DEAL". My advice for the next week? An uneducated vote is far worse than no vote at all, so give the Bush/Kerry/Nader talk a rest, and take five minutes to learn about what's going on in your own backyard. Student Debate Tuesday, October 26 Noon, Upper Main Place Sponsored by The Ranger News and 101.7 FM WIPZ 9 The Ranger News October 23, 2004 Rugby Team Making Progress Despite Pair of Losses... BY: RUSSELL HARRIS Sports Editor On October 2, the UW-Parkside Rugby Team played at UW-Eau Claire and lost 52-39. "It was a fantastic match until the final eight minute's," said Assistant Coach Todd Streeter. UW-Parkside had a lead for 68 minutes. John Hubbard scored two tries for UW-Parkside, one off of a stolen kickoff. "He came close to scoring on another attempt, too," said Streeter. UW-Parkside's Kevin Schanke, the outside center, also scored on his first attempt ever. On October 9, the team played an experienced Wisconsin Men's Rugby Club team and came up short, 53-27. "We out worked them in many aspects of the game, but we had key turnovers when we were close to scoring and we missed too many tackles," said Streeter. Veteran forwards John Hubbard, Andy Stein, and Matt Hasenbush all played very well. "Freshman Tony Kardelis scored his first collegiate try, and the back-line, while young, played a spirited match. Newcomer, Ken Knapp, playing in his first rugby match ever, showed a great grasp of the game as he had many successful kicks and chases," said Streeter. Lukas Bower also had another great game at scrumhaif and scored twice! The Ranger's aren't holding their heads down now either. "With over half of the team rookies or freshman, match play, especially against men's club teams is crucial and what some of our guys lack in experience they have more than made up for in tenacity, heart, and fearlessness," said Streeter. The Ranger's play at the Milwaukee Harlequins on October 16. Keep up the good work guys! Coach Fabiano Guiding Women's Soccer Team in Right Direction Lady Rangers set to defend Great Lakes Valley Conference Title and gain NCAA bid BY RUSSELL HARRIS Sports Editor UW-Parkside Women's Soccer Head Coach, Troy Fabiano, was the Great Lakes Valley Conference (GLVC) coach of the year in 2003 after the team won its first ever GLVC title and obtained its first NCAA tournament bid, both of which were firsts in UW-Parkside's history in the women's soccer program. The Rangers are currently ranked number two in their region and 15th in the nation. Fabiano, in his seventh season as head coach, inherited a squad that had a 5-11 record and over the past three seasons has an impressive record of 48-8-8 and enjoyed a .805 winning percentage. "Our girls need to be recognized from where they've come from, it says a lot for the players we've brought in, our administration, our athletic department, and our coaching staff," said Fabiano. He is a native Kenosha son and attended Bradford High School where he earned a scholarship to play soccer and went on to earn his degree at Robert Morris College, which is a Division I school. Fabiano might have gotten his passion for soccer from his father, who had a successful career coaching soccer for 20 vears at Kenosha Bradford and Kenosha Tremper High Schools. His only losing season as the head coach of UW-Parkside was his first year, but ever since Fabiano headed up his recruiting he has led the Lady Rangers to five straight winning seasons and has attracted national attention. After just one season, Fabiano took over the reigns and led the team to the Great Lakes Valley Conference (GLVC) Final Four in 2000 and on to the league championship game in 2001 (17-2 record) prior to winning the GLVC in 2003. So when asked if there is now more pressure on the team or less, Fabiano said, "The pressure has intensified since our success. Teams are gunning for us.' Coach Fabiano said that this year s focus is on the defensive side of the ball. Fabiano says that senior goalkeeper, Abbigale Wild, senior /fefen<fer. Steohanie Strauss, and MEN'S SOCCER TEAM WINS 400th GAME IN PROGRAM HISTORY! On Friday, October 14, the UWParkside Men's Soccer Team won its 400lh game in the program's history by beating the Kentucky Wesley an Panthers, 10-0, in a Great Lakes Valley Conference (GLVC) contest at Wood Road Field. The Rangers did so quite handily and nine different players scored goals to lead a balanced scoring attack. Sophomore midfielder, Bill Haga, scored twice for the Rangers who are now 11-2-1 overall and 6-1-1 in the GLVC. The Rangers led 3-0 at the half. The Rangers had 17 shots on goal while the Panthers had just two. Freshman goalkeeper, Victor Perez, and sophomore goalkeeper, Mickey joy, who is coming back from an injury that he suffered on the second day of practice this season, both saw time defending the net and combined efforts for the shutout. senior midfielder, Linsey Griffitts, are keys to helping UW-Parkside defensively. "We need them and our other returning players to show the 13 freshman what this program is all about, which is that we're competing for a conference championship. We need our experienced players to teach our younger players," said Fabiano. As for the freshman stepping up this season, Fabiano said, "Some of them have. Out of 27 goals that we've scored, 20 of them have been by freshman." Freshman midfielder, Tamara Buntrock, and freshman forward, Laura Eide, have contributed in a big way this season.

This is a team effort and it is about doing the little things," said Fabiano. Among the players who contribute to this on a regular basis is Stephanie Strauss, a senior sweeper. "She definitely covers a lot of ground out there," said Fabiano. As for senior goalkeeper, Abbigale Wild, she is having yet another terrific season. "Our freshman are scoring goals and our upperclassmen are not giving any goals up," stated Fabiano. When asked if the competition is playing up to the same level as last season, Fabiano said, "There are no easy games in this conference." The Ranger News wanted to know what Fabiano's team was like during their practices. The coach grinned and said, "They are somewhat consistent and sometimes not. They're like a chameleon. We are trying to figure out our chemistry as we go." When asked what he would like to see his student-athletes to get out of their experience here at UW-Parkside, Fabiano said firmly, "I want them to succeed in the classroom and on the field." For the past 5-6 years, the women's soccer teams have had an impressive GPA of 3.0. As for Samantha Sosnay, a former soccer player at UW-Parkside and one of the team's two assistant coaches, Fabiano had this to say, "Sam relates to the girls well and works with them a lot. She does a lot of paper work on and off of the field, too." Vlatko Minic, a veteran assistant coach on the team, focuses on coaching defense. "He is easy to relate to and he helps to close bridges between players," said Fabiano. Fabiano said that it is nice to have trustworthy assistants. The Ranger News wishes the team the best of luck for the remainder of this season, which looks like GLVC Tournament play and possibly a bid into the NCAA Tournament. There is still a chance that the Lady Rangers will be hosting the GLVC Tournament and a portion or the entire NCAA Tournament here at Wood Road Field. Stay tuned for more! Discover What the Sports Activities Center Has to Offer BY HEATHER TODD Do you know what the big building is on the south side of campus? Heard it's a gymnasium, but never visited?

Coming into this season, Kilps has a lifetime record of 285-97-24. He ranks fourth all-time in NCAA Division II in wins. He has coached 19 nationally ranked UW-Parkside teams that have made 20 post-season appearances. His teams have never had a losing season. Currently, the men's soccer team is ranked second regionally and is 16th nationally. On October 8, the team won its 400th victory in program history! Kilps began his collegiate coaching career at Aurora College and remained there for five seasons before coming back to UW-Parkside. He was a Ranger soccer player from 1971-1974 and an assistant coach in 1975. He earned his undergraduate degree from UW-Parkside and a master's degree of education from Bowling Green University. Kilps served as an assistant coach and assistant trainer while at Bowling Green University. Coach Kilps is a certified athletic trainer and was the head trainer at UW-Parkside for 15 years, but left that position about five years ago. Kilps has taught a variety of classes in his years at UWParkside, and is currently t e a c h i n g two courses; orientation to coaching and cross training. In the classroom, a r ema r k a b l e 98 percent of Kilps players have earned a degree. In 13 of the last 14 semesters, his teams have a collective GPA of 3.0. Coach Kilps, an associate professor of education, said that he has many players that have gone on to successful careers, including: mi orthopedic surgeon, attorney, physician, professor of medical biophysics, a "He's the same person I knew when I first met him. He knew how to teach, he knew how to relate to young people and he did it all with a passion, with ethics, and he always had his priorities straight. He's got the whole package." Bob Gansler, Head Coach, Kansas City Wizards & Coach Kilps' Mentor bakery owner, a President/CEO, a police officer, a vice president of commercial banking, a prosthetist/ orthotist, admissions counselor, and more than one coach. Kilp's said, "I think we're taking larger steps. We're going in the right direction." He said winning the games that are decided by one goal is very important. The Ranger's record is 5-1 in those games this season. As for team goals are concerned, Kilps said," 1t hink number one is to be the best that we can be. We vvant to win the conference and advance to the NCAA Tournament and advance as far as we can. I th ink that's always your goal-- to be the best that you can be." On the second day of practice this year, the Rangers suffered what seemed to be a big setback, as sophomore goalkeeper, Mickey Joy, was injured. That was the unknown element for the Rangers coming into this season. Kilps had no other options, which meant that freshman, Victor Perez, would start and he has been outstanding. He was the GLVC Player of the Week earlier this season. "The piece fit perfectly. Victor has performed admirably and he will be the first one to tell you that our defenders work very hard to keep the opponents away from our goal." The best way to describe the team's overall attitude is that they want to win. "It's a hard working bunch of kids and they get along well," said Kilps. "Our goal is to have a complete game, meaning that we will work on both sides of the ball. We play well on both sides," exclaimed Kilps. The Ranger's rookies are a talented group and are contributing well to the team. The experienced players are determined to win. They work very hard. Kilps said, "There is something special to leave college on a team that is successful. Our seniors feel good about the direction that we're going in. They have given us leadership. The juniors are coming together; but they have been tossed into the fire. They are finding themselves and are developing well because they realize that they'll be seniors soon. Reality hits and these kids realize that they have to take the next step." He said that the team is constantly Working to get on the same page, but that it is difficult and that it's hard to be perfect. "We'll continue to work in that direction. I don't ^P5, heac* think you're really ever there. Everyday we'll get closer and closer. If we're there now, it's too early," Kilps continued. The Rangers have a chance to be in the position to host a portion of or the entire NCAA Tournament if they finish number one in the region at Wood Road Field this season as well. They accomplished this three or four years ago. Kilps wants to see his players get a degree, become good citizens, and good employees first and foremost. "1 would like to see each of the players give something back in some way to the game of soccer. 1 want them to look back on good memories and at all of the good teams they've played against. I want them to have enjoyed it and hopefully even have a good memory of me," continued Kilps. He also said that being on the team is 1 ike having a second family. The large group of alumni that comes to games on a regular basis characterizes this. These individuals still care about what is happening in the men's soccer program. There is a friendship commodity that speaks loudly surrounding this program. Kilps said that Assistant Head Coach, Jason Zitzke, Goalkeeper Specialist, Dan Tredo, and current UW-Parkside graduate student, Ame Berez, a native of Hamburg, Germany, help him coach of Parkside's Men's Soccer Team tremendously in preparingthe team. "It's good to have younger, fresher coaches. They're closer to the player's age. They help in understanding the player's needs better. They help in of fering a different perspective to the'players. My jokes are old and it is good for the players to hear some new ones! A head coach has to delegate and let the assistants do their thing. I can't hold them back. The team needs to hear ideas through different vehicles. That is what a head coach is supposed to do - surround himself with good quality people. I g ive them a lot of responsibility. However, I do feel the responsibility of being the one in charge," said Kilps. If there were one thing that Kilps could change about his life, what would it be? "1 think I've wondered if I put a s much physical time, effort, thought, energy, and concern into something that would have benefited me personally in another job, that I co uld have been a wealthier person. However, I don't know if I'd be happier or enjoy it," said the coach. As for his biggest accomplishment as a coach, Kilps said, "Looking at the fist of players who graduated and seeing their success and how each became a respectable person is my biggest accomplishment. It's not about winning any one game, it's the big picture." 12 The Ranger News October 23, 2004 Sports Shots to get cloudy, dark, and rainy.

UW-Parkside held the lead over the final eight minutes to improve their record in GLVC play to 4-1-1 and their overall record to 9-2-1. Ask Dave The Ranger News had another opportunity to sit down with UWParkside fs Athletic Director, Dave Williams, to ask him some questions regarding upcoming athletic events and issues in the world of collegiate athletics here on campus. Here's what Dave had to say: Q: Why are the hours of the SAC what they are? A: liWe tried to meet student demand. Student demand so far since this building has been open is that it should be open until 10 p.m. This is what they asked for a year ago. We used to be open until 9 p.m. ihe SUFAC Committee, a couple of years ago, thought that there was a need to have the building open until 10 p.m. and that is why we're open until 10 p.m. at this time. If we don't have planned activities in here until then, the place starts to clear out right about 10 p.m. So we don't think staying open past 10 p.m. is very smart. Ihe other side, in the mornings, we're not convinced that there are many students who want us to open earlier than 7 a.m. If there are a bunch of students who want to workout at 6 a.m. so they can get to that first class by 8 a.m., I'd like to know about it so we can meet that demand. There are a number of faculty that might like this, but the faculty has to pay extra for this building, Ihere would have to be a good number of faculty members that would want the building open at 6 am. in order for us to do it. It costs us about $35 an hour to open up one hour earlier". You can e-mail Dave Williams at david. williams@uwp.cdu if you carc to voice your opinion on this matter. Q: Since the Men and Women's Soccer Teams are having such great seasons, do they have the potential to make the GLVC Tournament or NCAA Tournament this season? A: 'The first step of post-season play is the Great Lakes Valley Conference (GLVC) Tournament, so ailer the regular season is played, the lop six teams in the league qualify for the GLVC Tournament. Then the teams play to a championship and the number one and two seeds get byes (first week oft). Then number three seed plays the number six seed, four plays five and they bring ail the other four teams to one site. We actually have a chance of hosting that tournament on the women's side as they take the number one seed, which is where ihe women are close to (tied for first) and therefore they will get to host the GLVC Tournament here on campus. Also, the men's soccer team (in second place) has an outside chance at hosting the men's GLVC Tournament. After that, the second step of the post-season is the NCAA Tournament. With the NCAA Tournament, Division IT is based on regional play and there are eight different regions in both men and women's soccer. In the women's side, they actually lake the best 32 teams in the country, which works out to be four teams in each region, but in the men's division, they only take 24 teams. So they take less men s teams than women's teams. They take three teams from the men's rankings and four teams from each region in ihe women's. There are 28 teams in the region and right now, the men are ranked number two, and the women are ranked number two as well. We play the regular season out and then the conference tournament. From there, they re-rank the teams based on a system that the NCAA uses and they lake the top three teams from the men and the top four teams from the women's. Those teams are then sent to the NCAA Division II Tournament, which is equivalent of ihe Final Four in the NCAA Basketball Tournament that you see on TV, only it's soccer. Whatever team is ranked first in the region has a shot at hosting the NCAA Tournament or a portion of it. It happened about three to four years ago in men's soccer. This is a unique and exciting position for us to be in." 13 The Ranger News October 23, 2004 UWP Sports Standings GLVC Women's Soccer Standings GLVC Men's Soccer Standings ms or wcroDer i d.

More than 100 students and families filled the stands at Desimone Gymnasium at the SAC to get a fresh look at the players and coaches. The event, called Midnight Madness, was part of the Hot Hot Hot Fiesta Weekend. Contests were held for audience members for the chance to win t-shirts and tickets to see the Rangers take on UW-Madison in November. Children who showed up before Midnight Madness began were able to get advice on shooting hoops from the players. The men's first official game of the season is on November 15 at Hillsdale, and the women begin on November 16 here against Olivet Nazarene. 14 The Ranger News October 23, 2004 Entertainment Left With The Leaves BY A A ROM WENSEL One year later, I don't feel any different. Elliott died with the leaves last year and left us grieving through the cold winter, made even colder without him. It's fail again, and even the warmth of the leaves doesn't make me smile. It's kind of like Elliott, he gave us so much happiness before he left us to go home to oblivion. ''You only live a day but it's brilliant anyway," he used to sing of the butterflies, and like them, he was beautiful. In th e song, "No Name #1," he sang "Leave alone, 'cos you know you don't belong here." Maybe that's where he will finally fit in, heaven. Elliott continues, " ...when I go don't you follow me," asking people who love him to stay behind after he has left. Thinking of Elliott Smith's death just leaves me with a sad emptiness, as his tender voice and fragile guitar playing slip away. 1 write this with a heavy heart, I co uldn't convince you of how much his music meant to me and many others. Elliott sang of his sadness, and in doing so, eased our pain. "No one's gonna fool around with us," he sang in "Angeles," and who could argue with him. Elliott could muster more strength in a whisper than any one I ever met could strain to shout. On October 21, one year has passed. His death - that of one of the most humbly talented musicians to ever grace our ears - well, it's still hard to believe. Unfortunately, most of you aren't familiar with Elliott Smith's music. He did the film score for "Good Will Hunting," so if you saw that, you heard him. Or you may remember his performance on the Academy Awards, Elliott in an all white suit, which now seems eerily angelic. His best albums are his first three with less production and interference from producers and record executives, entitled: "Roman Candle," "Elliott Smith," and "Either/Or." His favorite part of music was melody and he had a great sense for it. A natural gift, that gave his songs a sing song melody that you can whistle to. You'll find that his songs relate to people of our age, or anyone who's alive. Breakups with his girlfriend and band played a part in the way his lyrics are. He sings of how he doesn't fit in with the everyday church crowd, singing, "Church bells, and now I'm awake, and I guess it must be some kind of holiday. But! can't seem to join in with the celebration." He also shows strength in spite of his loneliness. In some of his strongest lyrics, he retaliates to a lost love, "What a shitty thing to say. Did you really mean it? You never said a word to me, about what passed between us, so now I'm leaving you alone. You can do what ever the hell you want to." And don't begin to believe Elliott is just some bitter loner, he writes plenty that'll make you smile. I particularly love when he sings in "Say Yes," "I'm in love with the world, through the eyes of a girl, who's still around the morning after." Elliott Smith is loved by people for being so real. When he took his life last year on that dreary day in October, many mourned him, their fallen hero. Many loved him because he was that strong voice they couldn't find, that voice that told people off in place of the silence they couldn't break. Elliott's words gave confidence to those who lacked it and comfort to those who couldn't relate to the outside world. Elliott Smith is the voice of the quiet and isolated around the world. Check out his last album, entitled From a Basement On a Hill, was 99% finished at the time of his death; it's coming out October 19th. If you don't like him or can't relate to his words, then youjust don't understand. Tid Bits Duuude. Former high school classmates of Richard Linklater, director of cult classic "Dazed and Confused," have filed a lawsuit claiming the director did not ask permission to create characters based on their likenesses. All three, now in professional jobs, say they're tired of people constantly assuming that they take illegal drugs. (AP) Banned from Urban Oufjfters!! (seriously!) John Fosler-Keddie graduated from Yale before starting VintageVantage.com, a t-shirt company, and agrees that the irony was lost on many people. "Anybody who takes offense to this takes themselves way too seriously," He's giving the "Voting Is For Old People" shirt away FREE to anyone who promises to send in a picture of themselves wearing it on November 2nd, outside the polls. He'll be posting the photos on his site, asking only that you pay shipping because the shirts are in such high demand. (John Keddie-Foster gets a thumbs up.) Eww. Thomas Remo, a 50 year-old Texas man, is facing felony charges for posing as a gynecological doctor. Before being busted in an undercover sting, Remo advertised his "services" in the local paper - and gave unsusupecting Dallas women breast examinations and pap smears from his make-shift office in a self-storage facility.

Rest assured, however, that the Center's activities will be taking a turn from what Stewart called the "dance competition and jewelry sale" brand of women's issues that have pervaded Women's Center activity in the past to a more active engagement with the student body in the planning and execution of events. "There have been a lot of misconceptions about what we're trying to do. The Women's Center is not an anti-male institution. We're not 19th Century feminists arguing for separate divisions of labor. We're just working towards gender equity," Stewart said. While coordinators are currently working with campus administration and the student body to decide what the concerns of campus women are, Kate Bieringer has got a program up and running. The "Reel Women Film Series" began on September 16 with "Kill Bill 2," and since then has shown "The Prince & Me," "Against the Ropes" and "Honey." Bieringer, along with other Women's Center coordinators, hopes that students will use the films as a springboard for talking about concerns central to women's rights. Unfortunately, Bieringer says, attendance has not been as high as she would have hoped. She's not sure whether the 5 p.m. and 9 p.m. Thursday show times are the reason. It's sure not the free admission. "It seems like everyone's got a 6 p.m. class. And after that, they just want to go home and go to bed," the firsttime film series coordinator said. She's hoping that more students will contact the women's center regarding the series, as well as about other volunteer opportunities.

Love Katie 16 The Ranger News October 23, 2004 Sneak Preview: "The Magdalene Sisters" BY: NICHOLAS MICHAEL RAVNIKAR On October 27 is the free student showing of "The Magdalene Sisters" at 9 p.m. Another free showing for students will be on October 31 at 5 p.m. Yep, that's right, Halloween. Undeniably suspenseful, the film couldn't rightfully be described as anything less than true horror. The story of the Magdalene Asylums, throughout Ireland, saw it's most prominent years between 1970 and 1996, during which it "saved" over 30,000 women. The movie follows the lives of three young women, Margaret, Bemadette and Rose (played by Anne- Marie Duff, Nora-Jane Noone and Dorothy Duffy, respectively). They were accused of sin by the Catholic community for being raped, leered at by young pubescent boys, and having a child out of wedlock, "The Magdalene Sisters" takes a brutally honest series of pictures of die inner workings of a cruel institution and its effects on the mental health of the inmates. One of the more poignant moments in the film occurs when the much-tried and easily deceived Crispina (Eileen Walsh) realizes the way that a priest has manipulated her faith. She stands in a crowd of churchgoers shouting at a naked priest covered in rashes. (It's a long story that's better seen than told.) For a good two minutes, all the audience hears is, "You're not a man of God!" ad infinitum. Perhaps the most disturbing aspect of the film is not the most immediate. It is bad enough that the sado-masochistic tragedy of the Magdalene Laundry is a believable and recent historical reality. What's worse is the truth that we're still left with: Contemporaiy discourse still vilifies women with an arsenal of inappropriate and disrespectful sexual stereotypes, albeit in a more convoluted and de-politicized method. Again, students can see the film for free on October 27 at 9 p.m. and October 31 at 5 p.m. Communism's Obsolescence in "Goodbye, Lenin" "Beauty is truth, truth beauty," that is all ye know on earth, and all ye need to know. - John Keats BY NICHOLAS MICHAEL RAVNIKAR The Parkside Foreign Film Series showcased German Director Wolfgang Becker's feature film "Goodbye, Lenin!" from October 8-10. Using the narrative vehicle of a small postnuclear- family unit, Becker deals with complex and volatile issues such as media's relationship to political ideology, memory and truthfulness. The story revolves around a young television repair and installation technician named Alex (played by Daniel Bruhl) living in East Germany with his mother Christiane (Katrin Sab), sister Ariane (Maria Simon) and baby niece, as Western capitalist influences contribute to the deflation of the Berlin Wall. -ust prior to the fail of the Wall, Alex's proletarian-interest driven mother suffers a heart attack and falls into a coma. When she recovers, the Wall has fallen and doctors warn Alex that the slightest stress could cause her to have another attack. In order to preserve his mother's life, Alex embarks on a series of comical yet touching falsifications, going so far as to have his aspiring film-maker coworker cook up fake news broadcasts. In the later third of the film, the powerful bronze figure of Vladimir Lenin, with outstretched hand, is hoisted by helicopter over and past an understandably confused Christiane. We see in her eyes a tender vulnerability that replaces the socialist comrade she had once been as an iconic myth floats past her, seemingly weightless. If only history were so simple. While "Goodbye, Lenin!" takes place in such a turbulent period in German history, the framework that Becker presents it in allows a foreign audience to find the common h u m a n elements of family, young r o m a n c e and death to identify with. "Osama" Offers Arab Perspective BY NICHOLAS MICHAEL RAVNIKAR Siddiq Barmak's film "Osama" offers a stark glimpse at the totalitarian nature of religious fundamentalism. By foregrounding the relationships drawn between gender, freedom, and economic hardship, "Osama" gives audiences a painful but necessary experience of Taliban rule in Afghanistan. While following the theme popularized with Shakespeare's "A Comedy of Errors" -that of a woman acting as a man - Barmak's "Osama" delves into a contemporary portrayal of the Taliban's attempt to edify a national consciousness subservient to its beliefs, and its effects on the life of a pre-teen Muslim girl. The film, which played in the Union Cinema from September 29 to October 3, followed a young girl (played by Marina Golbahari) as her widowed mother (Zubaida Sahar) struggles to provide for her daughter and mother after losing her job as a doctor. As the Taliban will not allow women to travel unaccompanied, it becomes increasingly difficult to survive. The grandmother, through the use of the metaphor of a rainbow, cuts the child's hair in order to pass her off as a boy. AH parties involve recognize the danger involved in such deceptions, but cannot deny their dire economic situation. Throughout the film we see women who carry burkas to cover themselves when Taliban forces are present. We're also shown the stressful tactics that nonfundamentalist citizens undertake in order to attempt living a "normal" life; for instance, we see in one scene a wedding party that gets broken up by Taliban agents. Before they arrive, a lookout announces their presence and the wedding party disguises itself immediately as a funeral. "Osama" doesn't ever take a position on US intervention in the Middle East. While US audiences will be tempted to read various ideological justifications into it, the film only gives the relative truth - That the subjugation of women under male rule leaves more than half of a society powerless to survive. One image that recurs throughout the film is that of the lock and key. When a group of female protesters are captured by Taliban forces and corralled into a cage, the lock is turned by a gun-wielding soldier. Later in the film, Osama's life is spared when she is married, against her will, to a Taliban-supporting Mullah. Again, the lock plays a central figure here — allowing her to choose which lock will be hers. The irony is painful, but Barmak succeeds in focusing on the futility of a life that is not self-determined. Due to a grant from the Foreign Film Festival Committee, chaired by Economics professor Norman Cloutier, students will soon be able to rent a copy of this film from the Library. The next film scheduled to appear at the time of publication will be "The Magdalene Sisters," from October 27-31. Wednesday 9 p.m. and Sunday 5 p.m. showings of all the film series' showings are free to students who present their Ranger Card at the door. Students are also allowed one guest. 17 The Ranger News October 23, 2004 F^STDO^C S Mouth BY HENRY GASKINS The problem with the invasion of privacy begins when an authority figure loses trust in the people he/she is supposed to be protecting. The US Constitution prohibits the government from interfering with a person's right to remain silent, to consult with an attorney, and to be free from unreasonable searches and seizures. I believe our forefathers included this in the Bill of Rights because it is important for the public to be free of government, and have the government work for the people instead of against them. One reason some people do not like police officers is because they feel the police are constantly suspecting people, always on the lookout for any wrong doing. "But I hav e nothing to hide! So who cares?!" Liking police or not, it gives me the creeps when I feel like any sort of government is looking over my shoulder - Big Brother, as it were. Aside from government and wrongdoings in general, people don't need to be in other people's business. I have certain things I will never share with anybody, because 1 don't want him or her to know, it's for me, and me alone. For instance, I hav e a notebook - several actually - and often 1 take walks late at night and scribble thoughts in the notebook. My thoughts aren't anything extraordinary or anything, but personal none the less. When I'm standing on a street corner at midnight writing and a police car turns the corner, I feel like all eyes are on me. I've heard of people keeping records of drugs they traffic in notebooks or whatever, and 1 often wonder if the police may suspect me of this. Or maybe they suspect me of plotting some kind of crime in my notebook, taking notes in preparation of the big heist. Or maybe I'm just paranoid. Either way, nobody is looking in my notebook, because it is private and I do n't want anyone to see what 1 write in there. 1 believe the government should trust me with my notes, even if I look like a freak under a pale full moon on a random street corner at midnight. "What about the mother that finds marijuana in her son's or daughter's sock drawer?" That's a tough situation, but I'd probably ask the mother the same thing the child would: Why were you searching the sock drawer? And if the mother had a reason, such as missing money or a drastic change in behavior, I would hope she would come right out and explain it and have a long talk with her child. But if the child has maintained behavior and is acting responsibly with no reason for the parent to search them, I think they have every right to be upset because it would be obvious the parent doesn't trust them. Children - and adults - need privacy and time to figure things out for themselves while they live and grow. The fourth amendment guarantees us privacy, but with vague terms like "terrorist" and the pleasantly named USA PATRIOT Act, who knows how long it will last? Privacy Vs. Surveilance BY PRESTON BROWN In the world we live in today, the risk of theft, damage, or attack is greater then ever and appropriately, our civilization has adjusted. Wc also live in a society that values privacy as much as it values safety, so what are we to do/ Well it seems that every time you go to a gas station or the store, you arc constantly being filmed. Somebody is watching us through his or her eye in the sky and we call him, "Big Brother." Now although "he" gets a lot of flack, 1 think there are many points that can be too easily dismissed. When civilization expands, it has to expand in all directions or else there will be a gap or curve in the social system. As technology gets better and assressors get smarter, we must find new ways to protect ourselves. For example, although it isn't exactly pleasant being filmed while I pu mp gas, I can appreciate the level of security those cameras provide. Stores with cameras have a far less chance of being robbed, just as a parking lot under video surveillance is a less attractive den for muggers. I don't mind being watched at a store, because I know that those cameras that are searching for thieves are helping to keep the prices down in the stores that watching over. If t here is nothing to hide, then 1 wonder what all the 1 uss is about? It's not like we have a surveillance system that tracks people in the bathrooms or in our bedrooms, or anywhere near our personal lives at all. Surveillance cameras arc only set up in places that arc designed lor public use, or private commerce. How could this possibly bother people? It's not like people are watching tapes of me picking my nose, or doing something else embarrassing. No, I'm sure that for the most part, these videos arc not being seen at all. If people want to complain about privacy issues due to the Patriot Act. then that's one thing, but when I he ar about folks gelling worked up over security cameras, well that's just different all together. If you aren t doing something that you are not supposed to, then what is the most a camera will see? I think the most a camera will see is people acting like ordinarypeople, not rock stars or super models, just ordinary people. It seems to me that people get upset when they see themselves on a camera, like when you hear yourself on tape for the first lime and ask yourself, "Do I really sound like that?" Because we don't look cool! Otherwise, the most you have for an argument on the opposition is a crybaby complaint that is aiming its sites at a perfect world thai doesn't exist where wc shouldn't need such things and where everybody has an unlimited amount of privacy as well as everything else. RIDICULOUS. Security cameras arc like scalbclls, they both inlnngc on our freedoms a little bit, but in t he end serve us to a greater good, namely safely.

Data collected by Natalie Stollenwerk Written & Created by the Satirical Writers Guild VOLUME *Get Out The Vote' Campaign Countered By * Keep Vote Inside' Campaign With the presidential election less than two months away and the country more politically polarized than it has been in years. "Get Out The Vote" movements have been sprouting up all over the nation, especially on college campuses. Young people (18-24) arc statistically one of the least likely demographics to vote in a presidential election, but these drives hope to change that. Parkside's own "Get Out The Vote" campaign, called the New Voters Project, has been working feverishly for weeks, registering a countless number of students to participate in this year's election. The purpose of the campaign is not only to register new, young voters, says NVP director Luscious Cromwell, but ultimately to gain the attention ol' politicians who largely ignore the issues of young people. "They don't pay attention to us because we don't vote,' says Cromwell. "Old people vote in droves -- mostly because they don't have much else to do - and politicians payattention to them for that. Seriously, my grandfather's hobbies include lawn management, aging, and voting. We need to get the young people involved in politics so the politicians will get involved with young people... in a non-sexual kind of way" NVP, however, has run inio some unexpected competition. Their "Get Out The Vote" drive has been countered by a new "Keep Your Vote Inside" drive, spearheaded by a group called Young People For More Of The Same. The group's leader. Kip Turner, says that Y.P.F.M.O.T.S. is about getting active in urging young people to not gel active, and keep their voice unheard. Registering lots of new, younger voters, he says, throws off the natural order of society. "Young people were never meant to be voting in the percentages that the New Voters Project is aiming for," says Turner. "Fifty percent? Sixty percent? We're supposed to be an apathetic age group. Y.P.F.M.O.T.S. is simply trying to maintain an image that young people have had for generations." Turner says the real danger is what will happen if young people become more involved. "Our organization is about stability. If young people start voting in record numbers, we'll be expected to act more responsibly in other facets of society, too. I don 't, know about you, but I'm not ready to move out of my parents' basement just yet. I just got the furniture arranged they way I want it. It creates a nice comfort zone. Our anti-voting drive is about keeping our generation in an apathetic comfort zone." NVP director Cromwell scoff's at the anti-voting drive. "It's ridiculous and shouldn't be taken seriously," says Cromwell. "I doubt they've convinced anyone." Y.P.F.M.O.T.S. leader Kip Turner, however, assures The Stale that they've turned heads. "No, we haven't gotten any signatures yet, and, yeah, our club is really just me and my buddy, but I think people are wanning up to us. College kids keep hearing that they should do this and they should do that, i feel like I'm being should to death." Vin Diesel Aside, Vin Diesel Kicks Ass Undecided Voters Should Hurry The Hell Up Already John Kerry Eats Hot Dog, No Ketchup George Foreman Grills Used As Currency Parkside Violates U.N. Treaty, Sanctions Imposed Last week, U.N. inspectors finished their periodic tour of U.W. Parkside, and yesterday, they issued their report on the matter. The document includes a 47 page list of human rights abases, W.M.I), violations, and several other categories of offenses. A major complaint seemed to be the proliferation of wheeled backpacks. The report states: "...these insidious torture devices are utilized at irregular intervals of time to chip away at the sanity of the locals. They are typically used when large crowds are present, to maximize their effects, hut uncertainty is sustained by having the possibility of a rolling backpack at any time..." The report also mentions that several of the inspectors succumbed to the powerful psychological effects of these devices before couniermeasures were instituted. Another complaint was that a massive amount of the budget is devoted to worthless "public" projects which most sec as a monument to the ruling aristocracy. In response to these and other offenses, the U.N. has allocated 300 billion of humanitarian aid over the next twenty years to be doled out by the ruling aristocracy. Hopes arc high in the U.N. that these measures will be sufficient. Martha Stewart Reign Of Terror Ends Style guru Martha Stewart reported to prison in Aldcrson, West Virginia on Friday, ending a reign of terror that has plagued the nation for more than a decade. Stewart, founder and CEO of Martha Stewart Living Omnimcdia Inc., was indicted in June of 2003 for obstruction of justice and securities fraud. "This was a brutal regime," said prosecutor Bcrnic Whipple. "This was a woman who, metaphorically, raped and pillaged the minds of women all over this country. She has become destructive to the masses — a weapon if you will." Arriving at her home early Friday, police found Stewart hiding in a spider hole which she had dug in her front lawn. Upon entering the underground hidey-hole, authorities noted the decorum to follow largely an Egyptian theme. "I would say it was more Old Kingdom Egypt," said investigator Johnny Grant. "I saw some designs reminiscent of Giza and the Funerary Complex of Djoscr. lots of pyramidal motifs. There was a bit of New Kingdom Egypt as well ~ some Akhenaten. some Hatshepsut. It all flowed very well and really held the spider hole together." Stewart will serve five months in the federal prison camp for her suspicious sale of stock in bioiech firm fmClone Systems Inc.. but is expected to return to her position at Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia Inc. upon completing her sentence. Burger King Employee To Wipe Smirk Off Face Of McDonald's Employee GHRMANTOWN, WIS - George Km, fry cook at a local Burger King in Gcrmantown, Wisconsin, is seriously considering walking over to the competing McDonald's across the street and wiping the smirk off their fry cook's face. It's a thought he's had many times before, but recent events have brought this fast food competition to a boil. "I was taking out the grease bucket one night," said Ern. "Their fry guy was doing the same. Over at McDonald's, they apparently have really nice grease buckets, but you didn't hear that from tnc. He looked down at my old dirty bucket with its broken handle, and he had this real smug look on his face. T just wanted to kick his ass," said Em, his eyes narrowed. Ern was angered, but he let it go, thinking it was simply a random confrontation. Recently, however. Ern says that a number of McDonald's employees, dressed in their civilian clothes, came over to Burger King to order lunch. The McDonald's employees could be heard giggling and snickering as they ordered items like "Whimpers" and "ang-ass burgers." When the order was rung up, the McDonald's employees complained that they weren't "getting it their way." 'That part angered me the most," says Ern. "You know, sometimes we might accidentally drop onion rings into your fry orders, but wc always do it your way. Those bastards know it. We take that very seriously around here. Wc don't joke about that crap." The confrontations continued through the week. McDonald's employees used the Burger King rcstrooms, writing "Burger King sucks!" in McDonald's ketchup. Km instantly identified it as McDonald's ketchup because of its unique taste. "Their ketchup has a langy sweetness to it — everyone in the business knows that." Km regularly sits Outside Burger King these days, staring at the McDonald's restaurant across the street. "What's with those stupid playgrounds? We're here to feed you not play with your kids," says Em. "It's just — wait, here comes someone. Oh, he's going to dump the grease bucket. Lets see if he looks. He's looking. Yeah, smile while you can, stupid ass. iH be over soon to wipe that smile off your face. That's right, walk away, bitch." Do you want to write for us?

Bush and Senator John Kerry of Massachusetts was highly criticized for the elaborate set of rules laid out by the candidates in advance. Critics of the rules say it makes the debate less about issues and more about appearances. The vice presidential debate between incumbent VP Dick Cheney and Senator John Edwards of North Carolina last week involved similar rules, but also included rules submitted by Cheney which bordered on bizarre. Cheney submitted a mysterious request weeks in advance asking that there be no mirrors allowed in the debate hall at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland. Tn a lett er to the Commission on Presidential Debates, Cheney emphasized that there could not be any "highly reflective surfaces of any kind." Bush- Cheney campaign headquarters labeled the request a "self-esteem issue." Also in the letter, the vice president demanded that the hall "contain no natural light," and "no light sources which could emit any kind of U V (ultra violet] light," citing his delicate skin condition. Further demands included prohibiting the use of sharpened pencils, religious paraphernalia, and odorous vegetation. The vice president was unavailable forcomment as of this morning. 60% Of Americans Wish Debates Involved Some Kind Of Weapon The latest polls show that less than half of the American population are tuning into the presidential debates. The question is. why? In a recent study, researchers found that most Americans view the debates as either boring or even pointless. Yes. the debates address subjects that are pertinent to the American public, but they lack excitement. One solution given by researchers is the inclusion of a "combat session." The study shows that nearly 60% of Americans believe the debates would be more interesting if they involved some kind of weapon. "1 think weapons would prove to us that they're really fighting for the issues," says Tom Gatty, registered voter in Wisconsin. "Because they actually are fighting for the issues." As the study proposes, these sessions would include two separate racks of various weapons, one on each side of the stage. The weapons area would include, but not be limited to, nunchakus, spears, sword and shield combos, maccs, baseball bats, rubber mallets, and other various implements of destruction. The weapon racks, however, would not include firearms, as these combat sessions are not meant to end in death, but rather showcase a candidate's hand-to-hand combat skills. The study's coordinator. Reed Fletcher, says this combat session would provide voters with a sort of "reference point" when election time comes around. "This idea is not so far fetched," says Fletcher. "Remember, this is how ancient societies 'chose' their leaders." Teen Openly Disregards Seatbelt Laws Michael Cowans, 18 of Somcrs, displayed open disregard for Wisconsin state seatbelt laws last Wednesday. The violation occurred while Cowans and several friends were cn route to University of Wisconsin-Parksidc's Disc Golf course. As of press lime, when contacted for comment, Michael Cowans could not be reached. His best friend, Tim Van De Bogart, 17, reported that, "[Michael] not only refused to put on the seatbelt, but spoke out loudly against the seatbelt laws for most of the car ride." Cowans had apparently cited several reasons for his blatant disregard of the seatbelt laws, including his desire to "stick it to the Man," and the fact that the seatbelt in question was uncomfortable and often gave him a rash. Cowans' "steady girlfriend," Jessica Lorcnz, 17, was present during the crime and feels that this violation is just one more way in which he tries to, "rebel against the system." In a press conference held the following Friday, she told reporters, "Mikcy is always breaking the rules, always sticking it to the Man. While I don't necessarily agree with his motives, I gu ess I support him and will continue to support him throughout this ordeal. Sure, it may be a bit immature, but I gu ess that's what 1 love about him." According to sources close to Michael, this was not an isolated incident. Lorcnz and Van De Bogart both agree that the recent disregard for the seatbelt laws is not unlike Cowans' past exploits, which include loitering violations and several instances of J-walking. "This is just like when he wore his baseball hat to school last year," !x>renz explained. "You know he does it just to get attention and seem 'different,' but eventually he'll get sick of rebelling against the seatbelt laws and will find some other minor law to break." Over the weekend. The Slate headquarters received an anonymous tip insinuating that Cowans "wears his seatbelt religiously while driving alone, but only disregards the seatbelt laws when driving with friends and family." A hidden camera investigation is currently being launched to get to the bottom of this story, and The State will keep readers updated on all the latest developments. Mohammed Ali Not Allowed On Airplane Yesterday, as Mohammed Ali attempted to board a commercial jetliner, he was denied access by airport security. Apparently his name set off flags with the newly installed anti-terrorism software used by security screeners. Henry Morgan, chief of the security detail, said, "Basically, he's black and Muslim, so we knew he had to be up to something." His assistant also said, "He was acting all jittery. I knew I recognized his name from somewhere, and then it hit me - he was one of the original 9-11 hijackers." after a short pause, he added, "at least I'm pretty sure that's where ! heard it from." Security experts pointed out that Ali "had it coming." His past would seem to support this statement. During the Vietnam War, he publicly declared that he would not serve in the military if drafted. Anti-terror expert Karl Peters said, "It is clear to any student of history that Ali was trying to save himself for his time of holy jihad." Also, officials pointed out that, when searched, Ali was carrying a fingernail clipper. For those not familiar with this weapon, it has not one. but two blades, and is commonly agreed by security experts to be a preferred weapon of terrorists.

But I've just noticed (laws of time and space not withstanding) that you arc now within the pages of The Ranger News. Don't get me wrong, I think it's good that you guys arc getting out of your mothers' basements, but to leech off of the Ranger like that? Seems a bit low. It's unfortunate that you would risk the reputation of the school's official paper just for your own personal glory. Have you no shame? I gue ss the world really hasn't changed after September 11th. To think that people will stoop so low just for a few mediocre jokes. You, sir, sicken me. Sincerely, Henry Gaskins Editor-in-Chief, The Ranger News To Whom It May Concent, When i he ard thai your publication was being included within the pages of The Ranger News, T must admit that T wept openly. These were, however, not tears of joy. Far from it. I weep for the sad future of satire that will undoubtedly come from this. Having read past issues of The Slate, 1 can say with some certainty that today is a dark day for UW Parksidc, for this country, and indeed the world. You call yourselves the Satirical Writers Guild, but there's nothing funny about this. The word "satire" doesn't quite fit. "Filth" seems far more appropriate. Again, this is wrong. 1 only hope that we're able to look our children square in the eyas when wc tell them that wc allowed this to happen. Until then, be sure to go out and purchase Master and Commander, starring mc, Russell Crowe, now on DVD. Unleash hell! Sincerely, Russell Crowe Actor/ Street Fighter Questions? Comments?

Bush look office it's been once hazardous policy after another. We're looking at a pitiful job market, environmental protection standards have been rolled back, the federal deficit is the largest it's been in the history of America, and our bullying approach to foreign relations leaves us vulnerable to terrorist attacks. This president's policies are flat-out dangerous. But while we living today certainly feel their negative effects, the children of our future will undoubtedly be left with a crippled country. Imagine a child growing up in a post-George W. Bush era. rhey go to school — one of the only left standing in their city -- hoping to get the new textbooks they were promised. These textbooks arc said to have pictures of real trees, something these children are unfamiliar with. The last tree would die in captivity before many of them were born. On the way home from Cheney Elementary, they arc escorted by soldiers, because the police state they live in doesn't allow anyone to walk the streets unwatched. They arrive at their shanty in Sector 17 and arc greeted by their mutant parents. The fallout from World War 3 has given their father an extra arm, while their mother has no arms at all. They constantly bicker about it. 'Maybe, if you're good," the mother says, "we'll get a new shanty for Ashcroft Day." The children cry at the thought of Ashcroft Day. "Don't cry, children, says the father. "Remember the song? He knows it when you're sleeping, he knows when .vou'n? awake, he knows when you've been bad or good, 'cause a camera's watchin' us." The children sob even louder. The mother fccts them both a Kleenex. Is this is the world you want future generations growing up in? Of course you don't. But this is what George W. Bush's policies will bring us. I aiSagRX;. 1 <I I \ m/iiii,y J fields. Yes, that is correct. Magnetism! T know what you arc thinking. "Why, that is impossible."

If so, you couldn't have missed the work done by our current staff member of the issue. Scott Stefani, assistant editor of The Ranger News, spent time creating photo composites of what looked like people running naked through the UW-Parkside hallways, t was a time-consuming and tedious process, but Scott threw down and it turned out great. Besides his photo manipulation skills, Scott is also our go-to copy editor. After all stories are edited on hard copy, they have to be fixed on our computer. Sometimes we don't even have the stories on computer, so they need to be typed from scratch. Scott is the guy that usually gets it done. He has become a valuable part of the newspaper staff, and his work has made the process of putting together each issue run much smoother. Scott is an English major here at UW-Parkside, planning on a December 2004 graduation. His efforts have been noted, and we are glad to have him as a key staff member of The Ranger News.

They have a good variety of different shows, that do feature a wide variety of, guess what, MUSIC. A large majority of the programming is music oriented, and there are only 3 shows that are talk, and they're all in the morning when they are supposed to be. They have 2 shows that air 5 times a week that are purely local bands, and the others play quite a few songs I've never heard of, but sound good too. In order to complain, you should take into account more than just one event. 1 will agree that the whole "Real World" thing wasn't the greatest, but the radio station did do three musical events last semester, and are having at least another one or two this semester that 1 know of from listening to their station. 1 don't see how they can get John Mayer or Dave Matthews, because in order to do that, they would have to pay over $100,000, and students would have to pay at least $50 a person, and Parkside has a hard enough time getting people to attend events that are free. -Defender of our College Radio Station The meal plan system is completely jacked up. I bought a commuter meal plan this semester thinking I would save money, but it turns out I'm losing out big time. After paying $225, about a third of it went to processing fees, leaving me with about $135 for food. Everything I buy in Parkside Cafe is half off, but they are only open half the time I am on campus. That means if I'm hungry, I have to pay full price at Wyllie Market (minus 15 cents tax). It is totally bogus for UW-Parkside to advertise meal plans as a good deal. What a rip off. —I lungry for My Money Back i«B - ?-f . ~ mm ' - u $ »< gpi I r « **- > Got a complaint?

One lucky UW-Parkside student will be chosen from those who register. The registration table will be in Upper Main Place on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, and at the Bridge on Thursday. The trip includes airfare, hotel and MTV studio tour. UWP Students Support AB95 UW-Parkside Students joined at fellow brother and sister schools from across the state to support immigrant student's rights to higher education. As part of action press conference organized by United Council of UW students and UW-Milwaukee Student Association, Students voice their dream of higher education for everyone. The Dream Act is just part of the statewide student campaign focusing on increasing grants, lowering student loan debt, preserving good programs, and increasing access. PSGA Argues Over Constitution One of the goals that PSGA has sought to accomplish this year is correcting the Parkside Student Government Association Constitution. Current problems of the Constitution include spelling errors, duplicated sub lines, unclear powers and responsibilities, and duplicated powers within each branch. Currently PSGA requires that every7 member have a 2.0 GPA and 6 non audited credits. The changes in the Constitution, as presented two weeks ago, included a 2.5 GPA requirement and 7 nonaudited credits. This, along with the removal underrepresented student organization seats was seen by many that attended Wednesday's emergency meeting as a gateway measure to limit PSGA members and create an exclusive group. Others questioned the little input involved inside the organization and with other outside organizations. Still others spoke up about the inactive role of administrators responsible for looking after student organizations on campus. The changes to the Constitution were reconsidered later to be thrown out during the Wednesday meeting. Any constitutional changes must be presented to the students for vote before it becomes a governing document. For more information on PSGA please visit www. uwp.edu Keyword: PSGA. Page 4 The Ranger News April 15, 2004 Sexual Assault on Campus: Are You at Risk? By Josh Langcr April is here. How many of us think, "April —the National Sexual Assault Awareness Month?" Not too many. But maybe we should. Sexual assault can compromise anyone's state of being. Some of us are more at risk to this crime than others—for instance, females age 16 to 19 years old are at least twice as likely to be sexual assault victims than any other age group—four times more likely than age 25 to 34; and females age 20 to 24 are nearly twice as likely to be the victims of sexual assault as that age group. After the age of 24, the chance of a woman being sexually assaulted drops significantly, which is why this is an important issue for college students. Sexual assault, in Wisconsin, is broken down into four degrees, the least of which is fourth degree sexual assault, a Class A misdemeanor. This is the vague "having sexual contact with a person without the consent of that person." Generally, any sexual assault outside of rape falls under this category in the courts. Rape is third degree sexual assault if a person "has sexual intercourse with a person without the consent of that person;" a Class D felony; but if force or a compromised mental state (i.e. sleep, mental issues) is involved, it becomes a Class B/C felony and second-degree sexual- assault. This is punishable by up to 30 years in prison and a large line. The worst degree of sexual assault is the first degree, a Class B felony. If a rape causes pregnancy or bodily wounds, is carried out by threat of force, or is carried out in coercion with other rapists, then the crime is first-degree sexual assault, punishable byimprisonment not to exceed 60 years. If you are going to commit sexual assault, you might as well just rob a hank. However, robbing banks lakes planning, and sexual assault docs not always take planning. If a male college student and his dale are intoxicated, and she passes out and wakes up to find him having sexual intercourse with her, make no mistake, he is committing a felony. Much fuss has been made oyer prison rape, and this really is one way men often get raped. Forced oral sex is also rape. I had some discussions with Officer Marlcnc Schlecht of the UW-Parkside Police Department. Sexual assault is more prevalent in our society than is commonly thought, explained Schlecht, although the real numbers are very difficult to determine, because many sexual assaults go unreported. But one figure says that one in four women will be the victim of a sexual assault sometime during their life. The most basic definition of a perpetrator of sexual assault, again, is "whoever has sexual contact with a person without the consent of that person." If you have been victimized by this kind of degenerate person, never make the mistake of blaming yourself. Immediately seek medical attention, in order to make all precautions to avoid getting an STD. At the hospital, a victim of sexual assault will also undergo an examination to collect evidence for a criminal investigation. This is an examination of the body and clothing, which will be kept as evidence, A woman is twenty times more likely to be a victim of sexual assault than a man, according to the U.S. Bureau of Criminal Justice Statistics. The same source tells us casual friends and acquaintances of women constitute more than 50 percent of the rapists of all reported cases. If this crime is carried out against you or a loved one, please know that the statistics show that we are all at risk; no one is immune to sexual assault. Take the precautionary measures—or don't—but whatever you do, don't blame yourself. No one ever got raped on purpose. HT Biology Club Kicks Off!!! Biology students met March 31 with the idea of forming a new UWdent eiuh. They were joined by faculty members of the Biology Department who explained to them some of the goals of a student club as well as some of the privileges of University Recognition. Attendees were asked to suggest names for their club. No agreement on the final name was reached at the time, so more suggestions will be taken and a vote will be done at a later meeting. Some activities that students plan to organize include Held trips to natural areas (Bong Recreation Area, Chiwakee Prairie), botanical and zoological gardens, local industrics or laboratories as well as to make invitations to guest speakers. The Biology Club is open to anyone interested in Biology and encourages others who share this interest to attend the meetings. Networking will be an important aspect of the club: information about jobs, internships and / or volunteer experiences will be shared. Nominations: At this meeting, Maram Said was nominated for President of the Club and Tracy Schildcr and Sabha Chcema were nominated for Co-Prcsidcnt. It's Not Too Late!

Zabler It is visible all over campus—almost every document issued by the school has it, and every letter you receive from the school has it. Yet, very few people know its actual meaning or even what it is. "It" is the UW-Parkside symbol, formally "The University Mark". Mr. John Valaske, a retiree from UWParkside, contacted The Ranger News with information about the mark after reading a Ranger Growl that was printed in the February7 14,2004 issue. The "growl" asked, "What does the UWP symbol mean?" The Ranger News responded that they attempted to find more about the symbol but few people knew much about it, and stated that even the public relations director was unsure of what it represented. He stated that supposedly "UWP" can be seen within the symbol, but he could never see it himself. The largest misconception about the mark is that within the symbol a "U", "W" and "P" can be seen. Though it may look as though a "P" exists within the mark, it is actually a combination of two symbols: the acronym UW and a symbol of the tree forms that are prevalent around campus. Mr. Valaske stated that a unique mark was created and the "P" left out so that the UW-Parkside symbol would not be mistaken to be that of UW-Piatteville. A paragraph from the "Graphics Design System", which was part of a manual that was created when UW-Parkside was formed, explains the meaning of the mark. One of the thoughts behind the design of the University Mark is the representation of the open, democratic nature of the University and free access to all things within it. To successfully express these ideas it important that an area around the Mark be held inviolate as far as the intrusion of other graphic elements is concerned. Vf The UW-Parkside symbol will now be presented at the end of every feature article in The Ranger News. low tie Segregated Fee Pays for UWBy Josh Langer The Student Segregated Fee articles are continued in this part three of the four part series. Earlier this semester.; J osh Langer interviewed UW-Parkside Director of Athletics Dave Williams after learning of differing opinions on whether students should fund athletics through the Student Segregated Fee. Here is what he found: In 2003, the University Athletics Department was apportioned $290,000 out of the Student Segregated Fee fund, which was $2.35 million. Committee members on SUFAC. disagree passionately on this allocation. Some, like President Pro Tempore Chris Semenas think the figure much too high. "Athletics got an increase, while all clubs' funds were cut. This is obviously biased towards special interest groups on campus," said Semenas. His fellow committee member Ben Stark, a member of the University Men's Golf team, disagrees. "Sports teams are way underfunded— so much that the teams are forced to take time out of their busy schedules to raise the basic funds for equipment and travel expenses," said Stark. In return for their effort and hard work, student athletes are often rewarded by fee and/or tuition waivers. Still, the University s Athletics Department finds itself running low on funds. "We are trying to build statewide interest in UW-Parkside by building a decent basketball team. That takes money, time, and talent," said Dave Williams, director of the Athletics Department. "When you figure in the operating cosf of travel expenses, a Division II basketball team starts getting really expensive. We want to make a good team to get Parkside on the radar screen. Basketball is the natural, prominent choice. But we do not want to cut other teams funds. This is why the Athletics Department is struggling with a low contribution from the Student Segregated Fee. Other universities receive two, four, even six times as much as we do, from their segregated fee pools. If we are to compete with them for the talent, we need more funds from the segregated fee pool. When turning to SUFAC for help, the Athletics Department finds a mixed reaction. It seems that when receiving $290,000, the Athletics Department still needs more; however, the operating budget of the Athletics Department is more than $1 million. We, the students of UW-Parkside, need to decide through PSGA who will control SUFAC-and take back control of our fees. Athletes especially, make sure to vote.*#" Page 6 The Ranger News April 15, 2004 American Democracy Project: Strengthening Democracy The greatest danger to any participatory form of government is failure of its citizens to participate. Getting people, especially students, to take the initiative and help re-energize our passion for governance our nation's declining rate of participation in civic life is the ultimate goal of the American Democracy Project. UW-Parkside has joined with more than 160 members of the American Association of State Colleges and Universities and the New York times to "build" responsible citizens. "It's a three-year project and the purpose is to get students actively engaged in community work, increase the number of undergraduate students who understand and are committed to engaging in meaningful civic actions," said UW-Parkside Associate Vice Chancellor for Extended Services Esther Letven. "It's more than just volunteering. It's taking a role in the community working to make a difference in the civic life of our communities. The future of our democracy depends on today's college students participating in the civic life of America through both political and non-political processes. If our students don't come out of the university experience with a favorable attitude toward civic engagement, the future of democracy is at risk." American Democracy Project activities include creating a national campus-based conversation about civic engagement which will involve university administrators, faculty, and students in civic engagement as a learning experience; initiating new projects, civic engagement; measuring civic engagement by undergraduates at campuses like UW-Parkside; and assessing the influence of greater civic engagement on the communities these campuses serve. The fi rst year of the project i s bei ng spent talking with students to see what must be done to gain their participation. The following two years will be spent in actually getting them involved. Letven said this would be necessitating a change in students' mindset. "We aren't here just to educate students so they can get a job and are prepared for work. We're also here to help them understand that one of their important jobs is to be good active citizens in a democracy.'V Page 7 The Ranger News April 15, 2004 Interview with: Esther Letven, Associate Vice Chancellor, Extended Services Q: What is the American Democracy Project? A: It's a three-year project and the purpose is to get students actively engaged in community work in an effort to "build" responsible citizens. It's more than just volunteering. It's really taking a role in the community. And the whole thing is that if our college students don't come out of the university experience with an attitude toward civic engagement, that the future of democracy is at risk. We need informed citizens to be actively engaged in the entire process, not just voting. It's a non-partisan kind of thing, with a heavy emphasis, part of the responsibility of the civic-minded citizen is to cast your vote and be knowledgeable about the issues so that you can speak up against or for issues that come before the legislature. So, there is that kind of political undertone to it, but it's more than that. And each campus is going to define however they go on it. But they encourage a kind of assessment process that takes a reading on what we currently do that is contributing to our students becomhe Ranger News is looking for2004-200^nter^ English, Graphic Design, •Must be highly Communication, Marketing, and Business Majors are especially encouraged to apply. motivated Must work well with others Good Computer skills Stop by Wyllie D139C to Fill out an application by May 1st ing civic-minded. What are we doing in courses? What are we doing in clubs? What are we doing in volunteer work? They've given us a prototype assessment strategy. We are also working on how do we gauge our students' involvement already and what value can we add to their education so that by the time they leave we know whether or not we've made a difference in their involvement. That's why this whole effort is not about politics. That's certainly one piece of it. It's about informed citizens and realizing what your responsibility is to be informed about issues. So that when it comes time to speak up, it's a raise your voice campaign. Q: What is "civic engagement?" A: The first year of this project is for campuses to figure where they are, enter a dialogue about what could be done, what is being done, and get some common definitions. Meeting with students groups and faculty organizations to talk about the projects, looking for volunteers to join the dialogue. Want it to be led by students. Going to put together a program like Diversity Circles format. Second and third year would be for implementation of these action programs. That action could be integrating the NY Times into certain courses, so that there's perspective there. Or it could be building a communitybased learning segment into x-number of courses. I don't know what's going to come out of it—more internships in government. It'll be looking for ways that will reinforce how we can add value through both curricular and non-curricular means, to students lives so that when they leave one of our outcomes is that they'll care enough about their communities to become involved. Q: How do you get apolitical students involved? A: My guess is that what'll happen is you'll get those who are prone to this to become part of the dialogue; they'll be the dialogue group. But the actions they come up with have got to address those students as well as students like themselves, so if it's built into the curriculum and it's an expectation that if they're in a political science class or they're in a sociology class or from gen ed all he way up and say we've been talking to the gen ed people through the Foundations of Excellence. So we're hoping this will find its way into the freshman year experience and that they begin to understand this is what a college education means, that this is part of it. Into gen ed, so that in gen ed there could be some service projects built in or things like that all the way into the majors. So, we're going to have to have multiple level approaches to build it into what they're already going to have to do so that it doesn t become an option. That becoming at least an informed citizen is a responsibility of all good college students. And they must accept that responsibility. We aren't here just to educate them so that they can get a job. We're also here to tell them that one of their important jobs is to be good citizens.1/- Page 8 The Ranger News April 15,2004 Pick your PSGA Presidential Candidate Name: Chris Semenas Position Seeking: PSGA President Major: English Class Standing: Junior Qualifications: PSGA President Pro Tempore.

Nothing was getting accomplished and there was chaos at every meeting. Today when you walk into a PSGA Senate meeting, action is being taken on issues that are affecting students. What I want to do is renew PSGA's effort to creating a diverse, strong, and effective student government that will represent our voices through grassroots campaigns on issues that affect students to the legislature, U.S. Congress, the Board of Regents, and the administration. I will make it a priority to continue to rebuild PSGA by having directors work closely with student organizations, athletics, faculty, and administration. PSGA needs to be utilizing resources that allow them to reach students especially through The Ranger News and W1PZ. Most of all, I will work to have PSGA redefine the role of representing students. Many times I hear s tudents say that they do not know what student government does? It will be my main priority to communicate to students on a regular basis, work to bring in new student leaders, and reach out to every aspect of our campus. When representing student's concerns, I want to make sure that I hear ail students' opinions because it i s important to me that every voice is being heard. I am running for PSGA President because it is time for an active leader to represent all students. If you have any questions please email me at cmsemenas@hotmail.com or call me at (262) 595-3622. Thank you and I hope that 1 will receive your support on April 20th and 21st! Abraham is a sophomore majoring m psychology and minor in political science. Latinos Unidos and Sacred Circle both seeing leadership and dedication to get the job done had appointed him as treasurer of their organization and Rainbow Alliance as Secretary. In the PSGA he is part of a small group that had attended every United Council General Assembly, the State Student Association Alliance conference in Madison, and USSA Legislative Conference. By doing so he had both put student first in his life. The union expansion, one of the only state projects not decided by a student referendum, Abraham opposed the expansion because the customers of the university were not informed by administration and should be the primary decision maker should they choose to tax themselves for twenty (20) years. Having build bridges within the Parkside community, students understand that Abraham priority is education as a fundamental right and aftordability as a huge issue in the Wisconsin 2005- 07 biennial budget. Parkside students, PSGA, and student organization participation in next year's statewide campaign, Building the Wisconsin Ideal: $9 at a Time, will be his priority. For every dollar that goes in to UW-System schools, nine dollars comes back to the economy. This along with working with the New Voters project, a nonprofit organization dedicated to increasing voter turnout among citizens age 18-24 on Election Day, is equally important as letting Lawmakers, Congressmen and Women, Senators and even our President that our issues are important and so are our state and federal budget priorities. Support me for President, Joe Duncan for Vice President and the RAVE Coalition pushing real ideas and real issues that affect everyone. Reform According to the Voices of Everyone! http://uwp.edu/~dunca001 / HT My name is David Biolik and I am running for the office of Parkside Student Government Association President. I am in my third year of seeking an International Studies and Communications degree and have been involved here at UW-Parkside as both a PSGA Senator and as a SUFAC committee member. In addition to involvement on the university level, I have also had the privlege of attending statewide United Council events and conferences, working with other UW Systems schools and our state and local leaders in representing students and their voices when it comes to issues that affect all of us as students. The role of PSGA is to fairly represent the students when it comes to local, state, federal, and especially campus issues. As a part of PSGA, and being a Parkside student, I have seen many injustices done to the students over this past year, including but not limited to the union expansion, which was passed without referendum, leaving the students without a voice on such critical issues. We need a student government in which all voices are heard and students know what is going on with their university, their tutition dollars, and their future. As President, I will make sure to integrate the PSGA into the general population of Parkside students, keep them informed as to what is happening, and then listen to what they have to say. Visiting and speaking with students over the past couple of weeks, I have heard many of the students' complaints and it seems to me there is quite a bit of negative feeling towards the organization. This has sparked a fire within me to do something to change old ways. It is time to turn things around for the better. Unlike what has happened in the past, the corruption, the misrepresentation, the exclusiveness and so on, we need a governing organization that looks outside of themselves and the self-interest of the group, and looks towards working with ALL of the students and the university to make Parkside a better place for ALL. I am looking forward to working with YOU, the students of one of the greatest and most diverse campuses in the UW System. On April 20 & 21, makae decision that will better the welfare of Parkside and its' students, VOTE DAVID BIOLIK for PRESIDENT. Please feel free to email me with any questions, comments, or concerns at BIOLI000@UWP.EDU. ^ VOTE ON APRIL 20 AND 21!!! Editor s Note. The Ranger News did not copy edit these submissions.

Page 9 The Ranger News April 15, 2004 Tuition - Up, Up, and Away Freda Harris presented a financial aid proposal as part of the "Charting a New Course" study that focuses on aiding low-income students during a Board of Regents meeting. This is only after learning the day before that the Board may face hard limits on increasing state funding. The plan is to address the state financial deficit would raise tuition by more than 16 percent in 2005 and by 10 percent the following year. It is noted that the plan would later adjust tuition increases to inflation at a later date. Included in the plan is a total budget request of $26 billion for the 2005-2007 Wisconsin 2 year budget cycle. Currently UW system students will see an increase of $250 for each semester and UW-Madison and U W-Milwaukee at $350 in the 2004- 2005 academic year. It was mentioned that 2002's UW tuition costs for low-income families represented 33 percent of household annual income. Harris also pointed out that 35 percent of UW African-American and Hispanic stu- SlUUCillS CUiU urriaimi iJuvntoW- 11 1° rtf U'liitp "That is what I would call a wake-up call to this institution that was built for students - that we are pricing a UW education out of reach of a growing number of students," Amato said. "That |HarrisT proposal only addressed the lowest quartile of students, and we need to include the next two quartiles if [UW is] going to raise tuition." Regent Nino Amato commented that the budget needs to address the lower-middle-income students whose families' income fare between $26,000-$40,000 and middle-income students whose family income begins at $61,000. Regent Amato, Regent Jose Olivieri, and Regent Danae Davis believe that the issue of financial aid and increasing cost of tuition needs to be the cornerstone of the upcoming budget. The University of Wisconsin System is governed by the Board of Regents, a 17-member board, as established under Chapter 36 of the Wisconsin State Statutes. The Governor of Wisconsin appoints Board members to seven-year terms, except the Student Regent who is appointed to a two-year term. The elected seat, Superintendent of Public Instruction, Elizabeth Burmaster, is the only seat not by appointment. Beth Richlen, the student regent, encourages students from the around the state to tell her what is important to them. Feel free to contact her at banchlen@wisc. prill the April Regent meeting. More information on the Board of Regents can be found on http://www.uwsa.edu/bor/index.htm UW-Parkside Selected for First Year College Program UW-Parkside is one of just 12 universities nationwide, and the only one in Wisconsin, selected as founding institutions in the "Foundations of Excellence in the First College Year" program. The project will develop model colleges and universities can use to improve the educational and overall campus experience of new students, and by doing so greatly improve the chances of students staying at those institutions through graduation. Foundations of Excellence Task Force Chair Jerry Greenfield said UW-Parkside was selected from a very competitive field of 68 schools for its strong record of community engagement and because the university already attracts the type of students other colleges will see more of in the coming years. "We are the uni versity of the 21sl Century because of the mix of students that we have," said Greenfield who also serves as the university's associate provost. "UW-Parkside students are people who are working a lot, people who have family responsibilities, and people who come from backgrounds where there is not a tradition of going to college. This is the face of higher education. And I think what they saw in us was a very positive case of a contemporary university that is doing a good job." During the next 15 months, UW-Parkside and the other founding institutions will work both independently and collaboratively to refine and make operational a set of Foundational Dimensions, a set of model standards and associated evaluation criteria. "The whole purpose of this is to produce a national aspirational model for successful firstyear programs. So, our work and our contribution are going to help craft that model. Whenever that national model is referred to it's indelibly linked to the Foundations of Excellence project and to UW-Parkside as one of the founding institutions," Greenfield stated. Along with UW-Parkside, the program's founding institutions include Chadron State College, Chadron, Neb.; Brooklyn College and Medgar Evars College, both city universities of New York located in Brooklyn; Georgia Southwestern State University in Americus, Ga; Illinois State University, Normal, 111.; Indiana Uni versity-Purdue University Indianapolis, Kennesaw State University in Kennesaw, Ga.; Missouri Western State College, St. Joseph, Mo.; Plymouth State University, Plymouth, N.H.; State University of New York College at Brockport, N.Y.; and Texas A & M University- Corpus Christi in Corpus Christi, Texas. The Foundations of Excellence in the First College Year program is sponsored by the Policy Center on the First Year of College and the American Association of State Colleges and Universities. Lumina Foundation for Education and The Atlantic Philanthropies provide funding for this two-year project.

The UW-Parkside women had the highest winning percentage in school history with a 15-12 record. Kromm led the team in scoring with 16.2 points per game, was second in rebounding with 6.8 per game, and was first in field goal percentage on the year.

Eating healthy at college is possible. Dining services are more receptive to students concerns and dietary preferences and are trying to offer more healthy and low fat choices. You just have to choose them. Making time for physical activity is also very important. Take an aerobic class or join and ath letic team to keep yourself moving. UW-Parkside has two fitness centers, one that athletes cannot use, so it is always open to students, and another smaller weight room. Keeping yourself motivated to work out can be hard with everything else going on in life so I suggest you get a workout buddy to help with accountability. You can do it! Send your Health and Body related questions to O—1 How can you tell when you're full? I am not over-weight, but I tend to over-eat. How can I know when to stop? Many people deal with this issue. Some people are taught from an early age to finish everything on their plate, no matter how they felt. Although the parents were well intentioned, these urgings failed to help a child understand the moment or concept of when they ate enough to feel satisfied. This conditioning while growing up remains a problem when they are adults. Letting yourself get really really hungry distorts awareness of body signals. If you're out of touch or ignore subtle hunger cues, it's extremely difficult to detect fullness. Begin by thinking about how you feel while you are eating—kind of checking in with yourself. This takes a conscious effort. Once you have eaten some of your food, consider asking yourself some of these questions: Does the food taste good? Is my hunger beginning to subside? After a few more bites...am I beginning to feel satisfied? Try stopping about halfway through to determine if you've had enough. Try slowing down, taking your time chewing, swallowing, and testing between bites. The most important part about eating to a pleasant fullness is to eat consciously— to increase your awareness. This takes practice. Too often we distract ourselves with other activities, such as studying, watching TV, or surfing the net, without realizing that we're full. Give yourself time to enjoy and appreciate your food, and you can notice and identify its effects on your body. www.t20askalice.coiumbia.edu SKY KNIGHTS EAST TROY 1 -800-ET-CHUTE 25 MINUTES FROM MILWAUKEE WITH PURCHASE OF TANDEM SKYDIVE, HURRY!

Page 12 The Ranger News April 15, 2004 Album Review — Iron & Wine Our Endless Numbered Days By George Drury Iron & Wine is the voice of one man, Sam Beam, and that voice is one of a poetic folk singer. Reminiscent of 60's and 70's folk music, the album Our Endless Numbered Days isn't very likely to be Dylan for his introspective lyrics, but unlike Dylan, Beam s vocais - are more of a whisper as he softly reveals the lessons he's learned to this point in his life. As an added bonus, the album comes with a second CD of demos from the recording of the album. Though the album doesn't contain the wisdom of the elder statesman of folk Our Endless Numbered Days shows that Sam Beam is going to be carrying the torch for the next generation. What is a Desert Island Album? It is the album that you would risk your life saving in a fire. They are albums that never get tiresome, even after that 78!}i lis ten. They are the albums that you have to have if you were ever stranded on a desert island. Of course, you would also need some sort of listening device. Bob Marley By Henry Gaskins There is no doubt, the one cd I would want on a desert Island is Bob Mariey's Legend. It includes a song for every occasion and mind-frame. There is "No Woman, No Cry" for when I would be upset for being alone cm the island, and "Stir It Up" incase I might run into any females also stuck on the island. "Three Mule Birds" and "iammin"' arc songs thai can always make me feel happy and content. "Buffalo Soldier" and "Get Up, Stand tiparc ones that can always make me feel like I can survive. Every song in between those is equally great, with the exception of "Redemption Song." If there were one song that comes close to John Imoon's "Imagine" or Ix>uis Armstrong's "What a Wonderful World," it would be this chilled out song of freedom. "Redemption Song" contains some of the best lyrics I've ever heard Emancipate yourself from mental slavery; none but ourselves can free our minds.' That's something 1 think I could ponder for quite a long time on a desert island. . 1 Interview with Shinedown By Rebekah Rydzenski Have you heard of Shinedown? If not, here's why: "People love die song, but they don't know who the hell it is," says Brent Smith, the vocalist for Shinedown, citing "unfamiliarity" as the reason that, even though their two singles, "Fly From the Inside" and ".45", are soaring over the charts, they have only sold about 100,000 copies of their album "Leave a Whisper." Shinecfown has been tied with some of the biggest names in the business. They have toured with Powerman 5000 and Three Doors Down, both influential entities in the world of rock. Currently, they are on the road with the popular group Tantric. With the rapid way life seems to be advancing for the guys in Shinedown, it won't be long until they're headlining their own tour, helping some other up-and-coming band the way these groups helped them. The four members, Brent Smith, Jasin Todd, Brad Stewart, and Lerch knew it was fate when they met. Brent was originally . with Atlantic Records for another band he had out of Tennessee. After nine months, Atlantic dropped the original group, but understood that they had something unique in Brent Smith. So, instead WXWJ w: opment deal, "really an honor," to find a new band in six months. They provided all of the resources he needed for this task. This was great for Brent, considering all he's ever wanted to be is a musician. When asked how he would fall back if music was suddenly torn from him, he very solemnly said, "Put me in the ground... I liv e and I die bv this; this is so not a joke for me ... 1, in my life, have had so many second chance just physically and mentally, and I've always had music to save me- that 1 wouldn't know what to do without it... if I couldn't do anything with music again man.. I wouldn't want to be here." This level of passion is what surely led Atlantic records to their Drummer Harry Kerch, Bassist Brad Stewart, Vocalist Brent Smith, Guitarist Jasin l'udd.

Brad later approached Brent with the idea lhat the band be called "Shining Down." This worked for all of t hem, but they made one change, naming themselves bnmedown. And according to Brent, it completely describes the music in the band, because sometimes you shine and sometimes you don t. IPs pretty much the yin and the yang of what we believe in."

The band consists of Caithlin De Marrais (bass guitar and vocals), Kyle Fischer (guitar and vocals), and William Kuehn (drums). Their most recent release is a live DVD/album two-disc set. The first disc is the DVD that showcases the visual aspect of the bands performance. Taken from a show at the Cat's Cradle in Carrboro, North Carolina. The set is 12 songs long culled from their studio releases. De Marrais vocals compliment the lyrics beautifully, while at times it sounds as though Fischer is struggling on the vocal end. Fischer also dances spastically on the left side of the stage, at times appealing to rock a little too hard for the song. De Marrais also dances. When she has a break in th e vocals, she dances like a self-conscious ballerina hiding behind her bass guitar. Of the 12 songs two are encores, and the band leaves and returns twice to a not-so-welcoming applause. The one bonus feature is that you also get the bands video for the song Ears Ring. The 11 songs on the second disc were all taken from different performances since 2001. The quality of the songs is not an issue on either of the discs; the beauty of the Rainer Maria performance lays in the poetic lyrics that carry the listener through the emotions of every song. The problem on the second disc is that the songs are not from one show so sound quality varies on different tracks. Overall, every song is beautifully performed and wonderfully written, a good entry point for any new listener. The better of the two discs is the DVD, only for the fact that you get the visuals of the bands live performance. Movie Review: Hidalgo By Jim Burzelic Directed by Joe Johnston (Jurassic Park III, Jumanji), Hidalgo is about Frank T. Hopkins (Viggo Mortensen) and his mustang Hidalgo and their race across the Saudi Arabian desert. Claiming to be the fastest endurance racers in the world, Sheikh Riyadh (Omar Sharif) invites Frank to take Hidalgo and enter in "The Great Race", a 3,000 mile trek across the deserts of the Middle East. It's about being proud of who you are and that even the lowliest can beat all odds. The film makes parallels between the Native Americans and their dwindling wild mustangs, which Frank and Hidalgo come to symbolize. They leave the United States and become symbolic of the whole country, layering their meaning even further. The acting, directing, cinematography, sound, editing, and so on were all done well. Hidalgo came together as a tight work of cinema, but has two flaws. The Arab people are portrayed in mild caricature and stereotypes, culminating with the Sheikh himself. He is the highest authority in the land below Allah himself and he reads penny-dreadfuls and Wild West dime novels on the sly. He is obeyed without question yet this infidel cowboy has his favor and sways him to forgive him for irreconcilable wrongs. Suspension of disbelief can overlook this as just part of the campy element of westerns - which brings up my other warning. This isn't a western in the same vein as what you may be used to seeing; it centers much more around the race and difficulties Frank and Hidalgo have in this foreign land, if you insist on more of the traditional western, wait for The Alamo. Overall, Hidalgo finishes as an okay film, but stands as a really good movie. Movie Review: The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind By Tori Schuebel The Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind was spotless in flaws. This movie is bound for Oscars and Academy Awards, but whether they win anything or not is not of importance here. What is important is for anyone that enjoys art, comedy, inspiration, or Jim Carrey is to go experience this delight of a movie. The convincing reasons to spend part of your hourly wage are as follows: The plot is efficient, fun, and thought provoking. For example, the plot is about two lovers who tumble upon a new procedure that can erase certain memories. The plot is remarkably easy to follow for such an artistic film - it begins with slight confusion and intrigue and swiftly becomes clear, climaxes wonderfully, then wraps up in a way that keeps the mind percolating, but the soul full. The plot also pulls at our heart's strings, as well as puts a rumble in our tummies-that is from laughter. The procedure in the plot of the movie make us think about ethics, something along the lines of how we deal with cloning and stem cell research today. The cinematography of the movie itself is enough to spend the time and money on The Eternal Sunshine. If this movie were a painting it would be a surrealist's dream come true, something Dali and Robert Gonsalves would have wished to create. The lighting, the color, the juxtaposition is beautiful and memorable, as well as strikingly entertaining. Then there are the quirky, realistic, and lovable characters; characters we see in our friends and ourselves. Clementine is the female lead who swears too much, is impulsive, and afraid of her life while embracing life as a whole fearlessly. Joel is the male lead with a definite lack of selfesteem and care for anything much; he seems passionless until he meets "Clem", as he calls her. Then there is Mary who is in love with her much older and married boss, who runs the clinic that performs this new controversial and virtually unknown procedure. The only warning I would pose for potential viewers is that if you are not a person who likes to think and feel many emotions during a movie - that is if you like the colorful flickering lights and chase scenes more than life itself - you'll also love this movie. Just a warning. Page 14 The Ranger News April 15, 2004 Style By Emily Rasbornik Chuck Taylor's are back, Los Angeles is sport'n the All Stars again. As F strolled through the most happening city, I saw that everyone had them. Athletes, preps, skaters, suffers, punks, and the urban communities; anyone and everyone is wearing them. Even Victoria's Secrets latest swim publication is selling them. Apparently, it's cool to wear them with undies, too! (Swim 2004 Hawaii Vol. 2 #2...pg78) The most popular style is the mid top black and white shoe, but high and low tops in other colors were also seen. My roomies and I happen to think the pink and red are hot, but that's our opinion. If you still own yours from back in the day, bring them out because vintage is totally in. You think you only see them in music videos, but the fashion trend in Cali is a pair of Dickies, Converse All Stars, and a wife beater (a classic cotton ribbed T-Shirt). apply online at WWWJS.UWp.edu/clubs/wfpz or stop by fyiOLN D 131 an d apply in person or call us at 262 - 595 - 2527 sponsored by 1017FIVI wip2 Page 15 The Ranger News April 15, 2004 Revenge of the Black Mamba: An Allegory Written By Bill J. Turner Edited By Tess Tobon Chapter V of VI Malcolm hesitates. "This isn't exactly a real emergency. I h ave a large, poisonous, very dangerous snake in my backpack that must be delivered to the zoo as soon as possible. The zoo will need to provide accommodation for this magnificent specimen immediately. There is no answer at the zoo. A message was left for the curator. The snake is in my backpack now and we need to get it to a secure spot as soon as possible." "Wait a minute, slow down, catch your breath," says the sweet voice. "I'm going to ask you to talk with my Sergeant, the dispatcher, OK?" "Yes, who is this? Where are you? I heard most of the conversation. What's all this ' II Ihie 1H1 orpscppxes By Katie Katie the Horoscope Lady nonsense about a snake and the zoo? Let's git in the real world, man. Where you comin' from, man? You and ! both know there ain't no big poisonous snakes in Racine or Kenosha County. Now whatcha doin' callin' us with this hogwash? So where are you right now? I'll send a squad down to check it out. Don't move from that spot - Hey, hon, see who's down that way. Who's assigned to that South section?" "That's Sarge and the new rookie," she said. "Then get 'em on the horn and send 'em down there to check this guy out." "OK, sweetie," she croons at the Sergeant, "we'll get 'em." "Hello boys, are you down near Durand and the bike path? We got a kook down there says he got a big snake, dangerous, he says." The Sergeant Dispatcher cuts in, "Check this guy out and be carefiil." "We're on our way, be there in a few minutes," Sarge responds. They pulled up next to the bicycle and the young man with the backpack. Sarge gets out, and in a near growl, asks, "What's goin on here? Who the hell are you and whatehu try in' to pull? Dispatch says you've got a big snake here. Where is it? I don't see no snake." As he steps towards the backpack, Malcolm implores, "No, don't open that pack! We must take this snake to the zoo as soon as possible. No answer on their phone, 1 left a message, they may be on their way." "Well, we ain't waitin' for no zoo people. Rook, open that bag and let's see what's in there." The rookie, very hesitantly, takes a step toward the backpack and thinks, "Jeez, I d on't know, if I chicken out now Sarge might not take me out as a partner again. OK, here goes." As he reaches for the bag and touches the zipper, he shudders, a shiver of fear. Just then Sarge says, "Go on, hurry up, we ain't got all day." So the rookie cop, having obeyed the Sarge faithfully up to now, does as he is told, seemingly programmed to do so again. He pulled the left zipper back a few inches. The interior of the pack was all black. He could not make out the contents. He pulled the zipper a little further. Still he could not make out exactly what was in the pack. Unfortunately, he leaned a bit more to the right, and with his right hand, moved the other zipper, as he pushed on the opposite zipper with his left. As he moved them, the head of the Mamba flashed out of the opening to strike the rookie on his right wrist, grasping it and pumping venom into his veins. This is a six-part, serialized short story.

Page 16 The Ranger News April 15, 2004 The Unstoppable Message By George Lasley Peter was given an opportunity to spread the good news again. Peter did not see the actual corruption, such as the things that were said behind his back. He remained obedient; he continued to do as his heart led him. He succeeded in what he did. Thousands of people believed in what he taught even though there were more who went against him. He was lead by a force that is not seen but felt. He did not allow people to stop him by any means. He had confidence in what he did. He was outspoken. He went against the norm, just as the man from Nazarene, who was forced to not make it. They both were lifted above people but they were equal to them as well. After those around him saw this miracle, Peter, they had nothing to say. Behind closed doors the unbelievers talked among themselves. They wanted this miracle to be kept quiet because they feared he might change the hearts of many people. The Kings of the unbelievers wanted things to be as they already were. Peter wanted and worked for a change. He could not stop writing and speaking about the things that needed to be corrected. The Kings fondly captured Peter and did it silently because they did not want any of their wrongdoing to be brought to light. After Peter was captured, however, another by the name of John came and said to the Kings, "1 am here to fulfill Peter shoes." w Have a Tanning Party !!!!

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. I learned that people of different racial grour,s often misinterpret each other· said UW-P freshman, Prisilla Canada.

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. Rucker added, "Jonathan Shailor was very inspiring, and (he) create<! an unusually relaxed atm06phere given the fact that we were dealing with Friday Night will be doing a one hour performance in the Union Cinema starting at 1:00 p.m. courtesy of Claudia Mosley of the Office of MultiCultural Affairs. Their main purpose of their comedy is to use humor to address Asian stereotypes," said M06ley. some senously strong topic,,," Sanchez's favorite activity •·was when we were all instruct~ ed to strike a pose that defined how we felt about something. 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". While some quc."Stions were clightly arous~ ing, most were thought provokPeggy Myo-Young Choy, is scheduled to enlighten a crowd in the Union Square on April 26th. This event will begin at 1:00 p.m. and is sponsored b{. the Office of Stt1dent Multi-Cu • tural Affairs, respectfully from Carmen Ireland. The PAO has big plans for this month, but these events aren't the only bright thing about this club. Pakou is not the only PAO member in tl>P !'!,(;A. Newly elected senator, Peng Her, was awarded a seat beside his fellow PAO member. Also, Ying will be graduatini; this May with her major in cruninal justice, and another _graduate, PAO secretary, lien Chau, will be getting her second bachelor's degree in political science with a legal studies concentration to add to her bachelor's degree in French, "Vhen asked about what the PAO taught her most, Ying said, "It has helped me to be more o~ while still Jetting me talce a part in my ethnicity."

For c-,x;implP, one student asked, 'Would any of you trade f>laces and become black for one <lay?" Although the initial response was ·•yes," it quickly change to "no" after the student changed the ?uestion to, "What if you couldn t go back to being white?" A question U,at caused white students to stumble and to contemplate was, "How does it kcl to be white?" When asked what her overall response to the retreat was, Christie's said,· Attendance was somewhat low. I'm disappointed that we didn't have more e thnic diversity," Although attendance was low, most atten· dees were grateful for the experience, and beyond a doubt, they left with a greater understanding of each other.

LISTEN UPI April 12, 2001 Opinion Page Liquid Crack: The Running of the Bull Tyrone A Payton Opinion Page Co-Editor 36 hours of overstressed nerves nearly shattered me past my reality 6reaking point two weeks ago ti •II ~n during my usual Friday night late shift at good ol' Brcwmasters Pub on the south side. 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.

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'.

Just one week before the 2 : statute of limitations expired on a 3 : 1992 sexual assault case occur- 3 : ring near the University of : Wisconsin-Parkside, 33-year-old : John Field of Mount Pleasant :;... , was arrested. Field faces charges , on three counts of first-degree 4 : sexual assault. 4 . The crimes were committed 4 : in 1992 and 1993 in fields near 5' UWP. 5 ' Both of the cases in 1993 6 : took place on the university's 6 , . i:ibtormation Amanda Bulgrin Of the Ranger News Staff grounds. The victims, a 19-year- . old UWP student and 43-year-old Kenosha woman were threatened with a knife. A third victim, a 22-year- old Somers' woman, was assaulted along Highway E, just west of Highway 31. Field was picked up on Friday, Oct.16, after violating conditions of his parole. While being held at the Kenosha Public Safety Building, Field gave investigators a verbal admission to having committed the Parkside area assaults as well as a sexual assault occurring in Racine in 1993. Field is currently being held at the Kenosha County Jail. New information which led to the arrest was found with the help of a new FBI data b·ank. Wisconsin State Crime Laboratory personnel submitted the DNA profile of the four matched cases to the FBI data bank. Field arrested for sexual assault "The Scarlet Letter" opens at uWP 7 7 7 7 8 Amanda Bulgrin Of the Ranger News Staff Lisa Long Special to the Ranger News "The Scarlet Letter" has been called the greatest novel ever written in the Western hemisphere. The story brings a woman named Hester Prynne to America in colonial times. She leaves her husband Roger Chillingworth behind, only to fall in love with a man named Arthur Dimmesdale with whom she has a child named Pearl. Hester lives in sin for the remainder of her life wearing the scarlet letter "A" on her gown to stand for Adulterer. The Nathaniel Hawthorne's work has now been turned into a play by contemporary play- wright Phyllis Nagy. English Literature Professor James S. Dean commented on the most noticeable changes. The adaptation by Phyllis Nagy takes the focus of the playoff of Hester, and places more empha- sis on the other three characters. Dean notes the length of the play versus the novel as a major difference. Not just in page or time length, but in the obvious changes that a play brings. The playwright must focus on divid- iog the story into scenes, and shortening the dialogue. Dean stated, "There are no long narra- tives, and a lot of things have to stand for something else." Symbolism is another important aspect that Nagy uses to emphasize the various themes. For example, Dimmesdale and Chillingworth both have heart problems in the play. It literally represents med- ical problems, but figuratively represents both characters diffi- culty in dealing with love. Another change in the play is the role of Hester's daughter, Pearl. The script calls for a twentysomething actress to play the part of a seven-year-old girl. Nagy gave Pearl a second function as the.chorus in the play. Therefore, Pearl had to be mature enough to understand and discuss the issues at hand. An adult portraying Pearl may be more believable given the perceptions the playwright gives her character. Dean also noticed Nagy's similar portrayal of the colonial Salem, Massachusetts, setting. However, the play uses contem- porary dialogue which 'tints the historical setting of the play. Dean comment; on the adaptation of the play by saying, "It is an updated version of it, and has a modem slant on the situation, it's a modem play." The University of Wisconsin-Parkside Drama Department's 1998-99 Plays at Parkside series begins on Friday, 9 Oct. 23, with "The Scarlet 9 Letter." 10 The Nathaniel Hawthorne 10 novel has been transformed into 10 a play and will be performed in II UW-Parkside's Communication Arts Theatre on Oct. 23, 24, 30 and 31 at 7:30 p.m. A matinee will be he.o on Oct. 23 at 10 a.m. The cast includes: Katie Liddicoat as Hester Prynne, Jillian LaVinka as Pearl, Matty Winkler as Chillingsworth, Simon Jon Provan as Rev.

SUFAC and PUAB Member-at- Large Rixey Herron Of the Ranger News Staff Luis Venevoglienti is running for the Segregated University Fees Allocation Committee Member-at-Large seat in the coming elections. To qualify for the seat, a student must have a 2.0 grade point average, be in good standing at the University, and be carrying 6 credits. Venevoglienti, who meets the criteria, was the chair SUFAC in 1997 and worked hard on orga- nizing the SUFAC committee.

The Parkside Union Advisory Board (PUAB) Member-at-Large chair is up for reelec- tion. But according to Corey Mandley, president of the PSG A, "Nobody has run for this position since I've been here. Students usually write in a name for the spot on the ballet." The PUAB Committee is involved with student programming at Parkside. The PUAB member-at-Iarge also is on the Food Service Board. Qualifications for this position are similar to those of the SUFAC Member-At-Large.

Nolan STUDENTS MAKE THE PARKS/DE LOVE CONNECTION Twoof our fellow students at Parkslde, Martha Villalobas and Richard C. Nolan, are engaged and have plans to be married on August 12th, 1995. Richard recallsthe firsttime they ever mel .~ was at a B5U Valentines Daydance two years ago. I saw Martha around campus many ; timesbefore but cou Id never buildup enough courage to ask her out Once we did meet, it wasdefinitely love at first sight. " , Overthe past two years they havefound that they have alot in oommon. They both love Chinese food, watching movies and many other activities. Most ofall,they enjoy each others company no matter what it is they are doing. This past Valentine's Day, Richard proposed to Martha ina very unique way. Seeing as Martha's parents don't speak flu- ent English and Richard can't speakSpanish very well, he decided to make a create a card written in Spanish, asking Martha's parents, who are very special to him, for their blessings. Martha had no idea the card said thisbecause Rlchard told her the cardwas a joke and asked her to playalong. When Richard gave the card to Martha's parents, he handed a bottle of bubbles to Martha and told her to blow them while her parents were "'adlng because it was part of the joke. Not knowing what was about to happen she played I along. just as her father finished "'adlng the card Martha noticed the engagement ring that Richard had attached to the handle of the bubbles. Martha explained what shethought at the moment, "I had no idea he was going to ask meto marry him, so Ithought he Wasjust kidding. Once I real- lzed he was serious, 1was shocked I" When asked what their friends thought about the whole situa- tion/ Richard replied, "Martha is my best friend and is very special to me. Although my friends tease me alot about being engaged, Iknow deep down they "'ally care and are happy for us," The couple has just started to plan the wedding and both agree that it's alot of hard work. "Although we are perfect for each other, the arranging of the wedding has definitely brought about a few arguments." Martha explained with a smile. Besides planning the wedding, Richard and Martha lead very busy lives. Martha plans to grad- uate in May of 1996 with a major in Spanish and a minor in communications. This semester she is carrying thirteen credits and working two jobs. Currently she is working at a doctor's office as a Spanish interpreter for about twenty-one hours a week. She also works in the ARCfor four hours a week. When Martha gets free time outside of school and work, she likes to exercise, go dancing and hang out with her friends. Richard, also carrying thirteen credits, has two more years to go after this year. He has two jobs and works about twenty-two hours a week as a homeless liai- son. He is working for commu- nity impact which is subcontract- ed to Kenosha Unified school district. On Tuesday and Thursday Richard also works at the Shalom Center, which is a center for homeless children. His job here is to do many differ- ent things such as, help the chil- dren with their homework, make sure they get their correct vacci- nations each year and make sure each child is attending school. Richard, like Martha, works in the ARCfor about two hours a week. Outside of school and work, Richard plays semi-pro football for the Racine Raiders, and hopes to someday play for the NFL. When asked who his favorite pro player was he answered, without even thinking, "Definitely Deion Sanders." Although Richard and Martha lead very busy lives, they always find the time for each other, and know that no matter what the future might bring for each of them, they will always be togeth- er. Congratulations, Richard and Martha. Visionary Nature Poetry By Diane Scering A special performance of Walt Whitman's poetry by Eco-Activist poets jeff Poniewaz and Antler inspired those in attendance on march 1st, English Dept. chair, Don Kummings, one of America's foremost experts on "the cosmic bard" arranged the Whitman reading for U.W.P. and appeared delighted with the event Both from Milwaukee, Jeff Poniewaz and Antler (yes, that is his full, legal name) are dedicat- ed to the preservation of Earth in its natural state. "Earth, My Likeness ...The Visionary Nature Poetry of Walt Whitman" was a performance like none other. Imagine a pair of plaid fiannel- clad poets extolling, behind podi- ums, the praises of the "laughing philosoph", intermingled with photographs of Whitman and Mother Earth. For years, Antler has made his living reading poems around America, trying to follow Whitman's invocation of the poet as "itinerant gladness scatterer". Antler's poetry has apperared in over 250 periodi- cals and anthologies Including Earth Prayers: Erotic By Nature: Gay & Lesbian Poetry of our Time: and The lourney Home: Ihe Literature of Wisconsin Through Four Centuries. Jeff Poniewaz (pronounced Poe- nYeah-VAHsh, Polish for "Because") currently teaches "Literature of Ecological vision" a course he devised for U.W.M. His Eco-Activism spans from local urban greenspace struggles to the global rainforest catastro- phe. His collection of Eco- Poems, Dolphin Leaping in the Milky Way, is in its thlrdprlnting, Whitman's main objective in his poetry was to define life as a cycle of Birth, Life, Death and resurrection. His subjects ranged from anti-slavery messages, eroti- cism, women, God as Nature, the procreative urge and other meta- physicai, spiritual and natural ideas. Antler described Whitman's idea of humanity as having a II mys terious kind-of sexy self,..ifonly they would let it out". Whitman encouraged LIV- ING this life before we die-before we become a /o'blade of grass". In the 1950's Jack Kerouac's Qn The Road moved an entire generation to experience nature's open road. Almost 100 years earlier Wlat Whitman's "Song of the Open Road" suggested a sim- ilar solution I Let's Gol The Road is before us You will see I have tried it My own feet have tried it well Be not detained. Letthe paper remain on the desk, unwritten Qur own Professor Kummings was also moved by Whitman's message as he entitled his book of poems The Open Road Trip. Unfortunately, poetry does not draw much of a crow as in years past. Poets such as Robert Frost and Marianne Moore could often be seen on Johnny Carson or other talk shows. Dr. Kummings fears poor attendance to performances such as "Earth, My Likeness" may deter future artists from visiting our campus. Poetry's objective is to provide a sense of universiality. The nature poetry performed by our visiting poets on tuesday exhibited a con- cern for our environment and a hope for our earth. In his poetry tomb ,Leaves of Grass, Walt Whitman defines a blade of grass, and seems to be defining our greenspace struggles: /II guess it must be the flag of our disposi- tion/ out of hopeful greenstuff woven". Student Debate Physical Education Expansion Project by Steven ryloore, Editor-in-Chief Throughout this semester, sev- eral administrators and students have continued negotiations with the UW System and the State for construction of a major expan- sion to our PE/Athletics Building. The expansions will put under roof approximately 70,000 square feet of multi-purpose floor space enclosing an indoor track and surrounded by expanded facilities for athletic and intra- mural activity. However, this dream of a possible expansion will not become reality unless students vote in favor of the refer- endum. On March 9-10, students across campus will be voting on whether or not to support a refer- endum which is expected to cost each student an additional $6.00 Ref semester (a grand total of $700,000 from the students). "A 'yes' vote is essential to our abili- ty to move forward with this major addition to the campus," said Interim Chancellor john C. Stockwell. The expansion will cost about $9.25 million. The State, if it approves construction, wiIIrequire that 15% of that amount be raised from "private" sources, or about $1.4 million, Stockwell added. "I am very pleased to note that at least half ($700,000) of that $1.4 million will be raised from volunteer donors in the Racine/Kenosha counties who see the need for this faciIityand the benefits it will bring to the students, to the University's academic and athlet- ic programs, and to the region," he said. According to Stockwell, the current condition of the pE/Athletics Building is far below the standard. -tt's a well main- tained dump. It is simply far below the standard. it was undersized from the very begin- ning and we knew that, and it is time that we had a facility that is up to the standard of our cam- pus," he said. "'Thestudents are going to be proud of this greatly expanded facility. Itwill be a building that we will be extreme- ly proud of." We run the best cross-country in the nation and we shouId have the same for our taclllttes, he added. B.].Brucker and Tracy Pees are two students who represented the student body on the Steering Committee for the PE/Athletics Building Expansion. /0'1 was very excited about the possible expan- sion. As a student athlete, I know that it is needed. It's also needed for instructional and recreational purposes. Fromthe student athlete perspective, the gym is always crowded," said Tracy Pees, Parkside senior and sports athlete. "We have prac- tices at 9:00 at night and also at 6:00 in the morning. When you get home from practice at mid- night, it's really hard to study. It ruins your day having to practice all of the time. I know I may not be here to see it and to use it. But I know that each student will benefit from it," she said. Pees stated that the current PE facility is not large enough to accommodate the large student body that we have here on cam- pus. IiJhere are not enough hours in the day for everyone to use our facility: she said. Pees plays softball and the team must prac- tice in the wrestling room where the batting cage is located, "We cannot use it when the wrestlers are practicing. We can't use the room an hour before because the wrestlers must have their mat cleaned. The baseball players also use the same mat and so do the cheerleaders during practice. This is a room with mats where these wrestlers are supposed to roll around on. The dirt gets into the mats and into their skin and it is just disgusting," she said. Pees said that the track and field teams are also affected by the current conditions of the PE facility. "I know that the track and field team have to come at 6:00 in the morning to run indoors, especially when it is too cold to run outside. They do this early in the morning so that they do not get hit by things flying oem/on pg2 2 THE 54TH ANNUAL MILWAUKEE SENTINEL SPORTS SHOW AT MECCA CONVENTION CENTER by Ray Sasso Milwaukee, Wis.-The Milwaukee sentinel Sporn Show, while retaining and bringing back some of their traditional attrac- tions, has added a totally new twist to their ten day spectacular. Traditionally, the Milwaukee Sentinei Sporn Show has attract- ed outdoor enthusiasts of all kinds. Campers, fishers, hikers, manufacturers, retailers, inven- tors, and experts all share com- mon goals to see and show what's new for the 1994 season. All this takes place at MECCA from Friday, March 11 to Sunday, March 20. For the first time, the Arena will be transformed into the Extreme Sporn Arena. The popu- lar Rock Ciimbing Wall will anchor the area. Indy cars, stock cars, in-line skating, BMX and roller hockey demonstrations, motorcycles, paint ball, jet skis, snowmobiles and powered para- chutes will be just a few of the new things visitors can check out. The MACCA Fund will be raffling off autographed merchan- dise. The Scheer Lumberjack Show of Champions from years ago will be on the GMC Main Stage. Karate shows and dog retrieving will also be featured on the main stage. Competitors returning to the Sporn Show include the Archery Tournament, the Trout Stream, the Hawg Trough, and the Birdhouse/Birdfeeder Competition. The comedy cook- ing team of Mad Dog and Merill will also be there. Nationally renowned artists wi II captivate attendees at the WiIdlife and Sporting Art Gallery. New this year is the "Fishing Hall of Fame" which will feature a portion of the National Freshwater Fishing Hall of Fame from Hayward, Wisconsin. Several ward winning fish will be featured. The Mercury Marine Theatre will be the site of all the semi- nars. Roland Martin, Babe Winkelman, Gary Parsons, Daryl Christensen, Greg Bohn, Joe Bucher, Pete Maina, and the MWC 1993 Champ Team of Gary Gray and BiII Klotzbuecher will talk fishing. jeff Engel and Doug Hoskins will talk turkeys while Bob Kinney will speak about whitetail deer. Nate Vance will discuss elk calling and Pat Ehlers will speak on the art of fly fishing. Manufacturers of rods, reels, and outfitters including getaway vacations will encompass whole sections of the Sentinel Sporn Show. St. Croix rods of Park Falls, Wisconsin, according to jeff Schluter, Vice President of Sales and Marketing, "will be repre- sented by proangler and lecturer Tom Harris of Racine." Jeff von Almer will cover the St. Croix booth as the factory representa- tive. Mirrocralt boats will be repre- sented by boat dealer jatenskv's Sport and Marine of Kenosha. Main Marine and Ski of Racine will also be represented at Milwaukee Sentinel Sporn Show. Tickets for the show are $6.50 for adults, $S.OO in advance and $2.S0 for children and can be purchased at Kohl's Food Store, the MECCA Box Office or in advance by calling the Journal/Sentinel Public Service Bureau at 1-800-876-3320 STUDENTS DECIDE, FROM PG. 1 around during the day." She fur- ther explained that all teams- baseball, softball, basketball teams-all have to practice at night. /I And when the soccer team uses the gym, they use almost all of the space. Parkside also has a big intramural basket- ball program which requires all the basketball courts at once. When this goes on, nothing else can go on. All of these events are just an inconvenience to the students." According to Pecs, a non-ath- iete can also benefit from the new expansion. "The field house, which is the bulk of the addition, is huge---multl-purpose floors and dividers. This space can be used for non-athletic activities such as conventions, car shows, and any extracurricu- lar activities." Tracy Pecs believes that the additional $8.00 a semester, over a twenty year time period, is not a burden for students. "If you think about it $8.00 a semester is not much. A majority of students that attend Parkside, and who live in Kenosha and Racine, will benefit from this new expansion. it wiIIbenefit both communities." B.j. Brucker, the other student on the Steering Committee for the PE/Athletics Building Expansion, stated that lithe university very much needs a new expansion physical education building. It is simply inadequate for the general students." Brucker was a soccer player during his first years here at Parkside. "And we had to practice in the evenings from 10 till 12 during the off season. just because of the gym is filled with classes, filled with intramural, filled with practices all day-it's just never open. The space is inadequate for the large amount of students here," he said. Brucker stated that during his first years he also noticed that the weight room was not suitable for students. IIWhen I first came here, I discovered that the weight room was terrible. I also noticed that Parks ide did not have a suit- able field house. i went to a high school of 500 students and we had better equipment than Parkside." Brucker further stated that this new athletic building is not only a building for athletes. "The purpose is multi-purpose use that will benefit the entire university as a whole," he added. "When students vote on this ref- erendum, they have to realize that there is no option here. Right now the option is a physi- cal education expansion. That is alii Our building is 2S years old and students have been com- plaining about it for years." Brucker also believes that the additional increase upon students is fair. "The $8.00 is reasonable) For the students who use the building knows the problems. The people who do not use the building should go and see it, and then they wili realize that the $B.OO Is worth it. People who are against the referendum should open their eyes and see how it could benefit them." Brucker maintains that students will vote on the referendum only if PSGA (Parks ide Student Government Association) informs and encourages the students. "PSGA should be telling the stu- dents to vote. Ifthey want a turn out, PSGA needs to try. They watch the average student walk by, who are generally freshman and sophomore students, and let them get away without voting. These students are generally unaware of what is going on campus. "I think that this whole project has come together well, especial- ly the students and community," said William W. Streeter, Assistant Chancellor for Administration and Fiscal Affairs. "Business leaders in Kenosha and Racine have pledge that if stu- dents are wiIIing, they will step forward and do private raising for the expansion ...This speaks high- ly of both the students and both communities." Streeter maintains that our "visibility in the country will be enhanced. The commu- nity will be more drawn to the campus." This new construction will complete fl a part that has been missing for so long, especially a campus of our size. By the time Spring of 1996 comes, it will be 20 years since we have had a new building: he added. Chair of the Physical Education Department, Steve Stephens, said that this project is "fantastic and long overdue. The building is really inadequate since it first opened. It is finally time to build again: Stephens also believes that the additional increase upon students is a reasonable cost. "It is a modest cost for a major improvement for not only the Hate Literature Located in UW-p Library By: Erica L. Sanchez News Editor Recently, a certai n amou nt of hate literature was discovered on the upper levels of the UW- Parkside library, spread about on study tables for anyone to find and read. This is an occurrence that is not unfamiliar to the uni- versity, and although actions have been taken in the past to prevent it, every now and then it starts anew. Dr. John Stockwell, UW- Parkside's Interim Chancellor, stated in a recent interview that "this has happened before, and when it does, we simply collect it and destroy it. Ithink that it is trash, and although people have freedom of speech and the right to say lt, I think that is cowardly to say this without owning up to it. Let these people step forward and argue their point, instead of doing it from some post office box is some faraway city. It is simply pure cowardice coupled with stupidity." Eric Bovee, President of Parkside Student Government Association (PSGA), stated that Physical Education department, but for the entire UW-Parkside campus. It's a unique structure in this area of the space. The amount of good will be accom- plished through this expendi- ture." Stephens maintains there is a misconception among those stu- dents who believe that the new expansion will only benefit ath- letes. "We have approximately 250 athletes on campus, who spend a significant amount of time in the PE building. But dur- ing this academic year, we had over 2,500 students using the facility for credit. And then if you add the intramural students and the students who use our facilities for recreational purpos- es, you will discover that a signif- icant number of students use the physical education center. This is not betng built for just athletes, but for instructional and recre- ational services as well as for general student use," Stephens stated. Stephens also stated that he wants the students to understand the term multi-purpose concur- rent use facility. "It means that we're making every effort to design this so that many activities can go on. Most complaints are from students who want to use the facility for classes, swimming, or recreational activities. We have had to shut down the enti re facility for many games. This new expansion is creating more space for them." Montine R. Gorski, a Parkslde Junior and intern student trainer, stated that "the expansion of the people "have a right to say pretty much anything because of the First Amendment. This does not, however, mean that one should not take responsibility for what they say. The First Amendment was designed so that people could express their beliefs in public which is to be a free mar- ketplace of ideas. The individ- ual(s) distributing these materials are not doi ng this. They don't have the courage to take respon- sibility of their actions and beliefs. They don't have the cou rage to hear opposi ng bel iefs, and learn that their beliefs are wrong." "In closing," noted Bovee, "the people responsible for this material should come for- ward so that we, as an university, can see what kind of people they really are. Is there something to hide?" Action was taken to remove the hate literature from the library, and it is hoped that the discriminatory propaganda will not turn up again. The Ranger News will keep you informed about any new information on this topic. Physical Education building will benefit everyone at UWP. Being such a small campus, the growth is vital, and the health and well- being of the students and staff. From an athlete's perspective, I am excited about the project!" Matt Hetland, a Parkside fresh- man and baseball player, said that he is "extremely excited about the new athletic complex that is to be buill. I feel it will help UWP athletes achieve more in years to come." Roy A. Glass, Parkside fresh- man and soccer player, said "I feel that the new compiex will be a great asset to the school and athletes at Parkside." Christopher Taschner, Parkside freshman student, said Nthe cur- rent facility is old and just needs to be replaced. Athletes here cannot improve themselves as much, and are forced to train off campus. A new faciIity will improve the campus greatly and help benefit the school's enroll- ment, and attract the better ath- letes. The student body should be excited about Parkside's futun physical education complex. W. will all benefit from it." Vice President of the Parkside Student Government Association said that this expansion /lis the most important project ever to be undertaken. It is necessary for the student body to approve a referendum that will be placed on the spring ballot. Ifthe refer- endum is passed, the project will move forward and place Parksid< on the road to advancement" Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

UWPAC124 Ranger News Text Any textual data included in the document I' l Int.rim (h11K.llor, John Stotkwell Ph, Ed Building Expansion Plans by MarquitaHynes NewsWriter Afieldhouse, a dance studio, and an aerobic fitness center, among other facilities, are in the planningstages for the expansion of the physicai education build- ingat UW-Parkside. Constructionof the building additionand remodeling of the eXisting building may begin in early1996, according to AssistantChancellor for Administrationand Fiscal Affairs WilliamStreeter. ' Ina copy of the project sum- mary, the general goals read as follows: "to provide needed ~ces for instruction, intercolle- gl~te sports, intramurals, recre- a~on,and special events." Fifteennew spaces and five remodeledspaces are listed on , the MUniversityof Wisconsin ~ 1995-97 Biennium Major ject Request," which Streeter . ntIy made available for view- 'ng to the Ranger. A draft of the proposalshows an estimated cost ~!he project to be $9,358,000. Allbut 15% of this money wouldcome from state govern- ","ntthrough their state building program. The 15% we're requtred to raise locally. By locally,that can mean students, fund raising, through the founda- tiOll-it can mean alumni, it can meangrants. Those areas will be requestedto come up with the 15%,"explained Streeter. When askedif tuition would increase due.to the project, Streeter the '"Phed,"I think irs more along hnes of the 5UFAC I (SegregatedUniversity Fee AllocationCommittee) fee." Streeter continued by saying , thatthe physical education build- I 'ng was originally planned to be twice the size of the existing facility; however budget con- straints forced the down-sizing in 1972. "With the expansion we would truly have a multi-purpose building," he relayed. The multi-purpose building could attract sanctioned track meets, concerts, summer athletic camps, and various other events, according to Steve Stephens, chair of the physical education department. "I want Parkside students to be supportive of this project. A few students look at it as not their concern because they don't work-out, etc., but they don't have to be athletes to gain from this project," said Stephens. He suggested the possibility of conventions, seminars, and exhibits that students could take part in and benefit from. Regarding remodeling plans, Stephens agreed with Streeter in that the present facility "needs a facelift." One of the planned spaces, a combantants room, would help to eliminate the con- flict between "200 plus students in karate sharing space with other programs," he explained. lf the construction does begin in 1996, completion is slated for the following year. At press time, William Streeter was meet- ing with Fischer-Fischer-Theis, Inc., the architectural, engineer- ing, and planning firm that has been working thus far on the pro- ject. The company is from Waukesha, WI. Following stories on the expansion will be covered in upcoming issues of the Ranger. Parkside Takes Steps Against Sexual Assaults by Erica L. Sanchez News Editor This is the first installment of a two-part article on sexual assault and its effects on the UW- Parkside campus. Partone focus- es on adminIstrative opinions and campus-wide improvement, and part two will focus on self-protec- tion and prevention tips. In the past year, UW-Parkside has been faced with an urgent and challenging dilemma: how to stop the recent problematic appraisals of violent sexual crimes on campus grounds. Defying adequate police surveil- lance and creative safe-walk pro- grams, a total of five sexual assaults were reported to University Police, of which three involved an offenderls) that accosted women on the campus area. However, because of the recent surge in sexual crime, sev- eral programs and discussions have been raised and created to help better understand the prob- lem of sexual assault and to put an end to the violence that is ter- rorizing this university. As a result of the frequent sex- ual assaults, a "night walk" was conducted to discover steps that could be taken to ensure the safety of the Parkside campus. This activity resulted in many suggestions that wou Id help pre- vent sexual crimes, such as: a) the addition of exterior lighting on dark campus walkways, b) trimmed or eliminated foliage which might provide convenient hiding places for assailants, and c) added emergency call boxes to university parking lots which give callers instant communication with a university police dispatch- er. It has, however, been said that the awareness that follows-a. sexual invasion is often transient and unfortunately 'short-lived.' Aithough that may be the case on other campuses, it is evidently not so at Parkside. Dr. John C. Stockwell, Parkside's Interim Chancellor, said in a recent interview that "the assaults have been unfortu- nate, but there are two things that we must do. First, we are going ihirllOOllkl\ (mtlri to work on doubling the lighting on the campus grounds. The UW-System will be funding the improvements, and we can be confidant that it will begin in the summer of 1994. Also, U he added, "we must educate each other, and in order to better serve the needs of the campus, I have appointed a Task Force made of staff and students that is chaired by Dr. Francis Kavenik. This cont. on pg. 2 Black History Month Committee Releases New Information February is Black History Month. Each year, Parkside's Black History Month Committee plans events to be enjoyed, rec- ognized and celebrated by all students. This year's committee chair for Black History Month is Rochelle Boyd. The committee also includes the co-chair, Yolanda Jackson and the assis- stant co-chair, Daniella Bigham. The advisor to Black History Month is Karla Farrell. This year's theme is Black History - A Celebration for All Seasons. In order to fulfill this theme, the Black History Month Committee has not oniy planned events during February, but has made the celebration all year around by providing an event each month that recognizes Black History. Upon our return from vacation, the annually scheduled Martin Luther King Commemorative was eliminated by the school. Although this has occurred, the university has not forgotten or put aside his commemorative, but has integrated it into the celebra- tion of Black History Month. Please make a note of the follow- ing updated changes. The Martin Luther King Commemorative has been moved to February 16 in Main Place. The celebration will begin with a replica of one of the many marches he has participated in. The march will begin at 11:45 a.m. in the Union and will pro- ceed to march down to Main Place where the program will begin. Along with the com- memorative, there will also be a ethnic food fair, and a variety of African-American vendors. Black History Month is set and ready to go. Calendars of events are available at the information desk or CECA (WLLCD-182). Here also are a few changes added to Parkside's Black History Month calendar: The Essence Woman and Ebony Man Contest is moved from Friday, Feb. 4 to Friday, February 25, 1994 , 7 p.m. to 12 a.rn.
