A Brief History
In 1979, there was a popular uprising in
Nicaragua that brought Ihe Sandinista
government to power. Change was happening
on all levels:
L. -There was a nat ion-w ide literacy
campaign that brought national illiteracy rates
down from 52 percent to 12 percent in six
months.
.
L. -Massive agrarian reform happened.
Fall IS
L. -The education and health care systems
were rekindled and rebuilt.
L. The
Sandinista
government
implemented an economic plan that aimed at
switching from emphasis on export to
domestic production· keeping the food in the
country.
The U.S. government felt that this all
threatened "U.S. security" and began 10
support a counterrevolution.
With U.S. dollars and supporl, the
Contra War began. As local community
members saw that a means to express their
opposition to our government's actions and
express sol idarity tor the Nicaraguan people
was needed, the Thurston -Santo Tomas Sister
County Organizal ion was
bonl.
In the past decade the
group has evo lve d int o a
working organization of
solidarity fueled by students
and comm unity members.

Last Chance to
by Amber Rack
I remember my first th eater experiencr in Olympia: while explori ng call1pus during
orientation week, I chanced to sight a poster advertisi ng a production of "A Man For All Seasons"
with an extended run through the weekend before class, There was something called "student
rush" that offered a $10 ticket price if I paid at the door instead of rese rving a seat. A day or so
later, I was patiently waiting outside the box office at the Washington Center for the Performing
Arts, where Harlequin productions played in the black-box theater, to collec t m)' ticket to "A Ma n
For All Seasons,"
So what prompts this memory? Why is it relevant here? Once again, it is the beginlling of
the school year and Harlequin offers an ex tended run for its current prodllction, This wee kend
may be yo ur last chance to see a spectacular performance ,
Two years ago, still playing in the black-box at Washington Center, Ilarlequin director Scot
Whitney and his brother Bruce collaborated to produce "A Rock and Roll Twrlhh Night" (with

She is, in a very real sense, "the one that Interspersed with the present-day story

Devi may be tough, but she's just ins with men. The list includes a

DIET THE
One very important theory in health and
wellness that is slowly making its way into
mainstream America is diet therapy-the idea
that the type and quality offood consumed is
in direct relation to the state of health an
individual may enjoy.
Diet therapy follows the idea that by
ingesting certain food, an individual can
eliminate symptoms of illness. This is a highly
practiced form of medicine in the Naturopathic
world and as the science of health matures,
Western practitioners are beginnin g to
integrate the idea as well.
It is known that with certain di seases
such as diabetes, heart disease. and cancer, diet
is very important: Conditions can be thwarted
or reversed when a strict dietary regime is
followed.
For exam ple. Illy father suffers from type
II diabetes (onset by weight) and, though he
knew this. he didn't pay any attention to his
dietary needs until one day he was so weak and
dizzy he fell to the ground and we had to have
an ambulance take him to the hospital.
They put him in intensive care because
his insulin had reached near-comatose levels.
Th is was the wake up call he needed to get on
track. When his insulin level was under control
he was released from the hospital.
From that day on . he had committed
himself to follow ing a proper diet. With in five
da vs he had lost a (ollS iderab le amount of
we'ight and maintained his blood sugar level.
To this dav. he has co ntinu ed to follow a
sugarless diet and actively monitors his blood
sl igar level to ensure he will not have another
fain ting spell .
In this case. it took a life-or-death matter to

How does it work?
By Whitney Kvasager
Picture this: It's Sunday night. You've just
come home. You notice your roommate's
dishes have surpassed the boundaries of the
sink.
As you walk down the hall towards his
room. you trip over his scattered laundry.
"Why don't you ever pick up your crap'?"
you snarl at him.
He bristles and hurls an answer vourway.
"Hev - it's only half my mess. "
The next day th e scenario repeats. Soon
yuu find yourself avoiding him altogether.
The moral of the star),: simple co nflicts
can permeate entire relationships.
"Yo u're left with an ick" residue of
misunderstanding," said Lynn Stockwell.
Director of Mediat ion Service \
Mediation Serv ices seeks to wipe out
misunderstanding's icky residue. Mediation
Serv ices is the co nfidential campus-wide
conflict resolution center.
"A lot of people don 't know we're here.
we're so confidential." Stockwell said .
Mediation Services is made up of
Say John and Max are disputing seminar
members. They can't find a way out of their
war-like interactions. Max calls Mediation
Services. Mediation Services then calls John
and sets up a meeting time and place. Max and
John meet with two mediators who help
negotiate a settlement. Both before and after
the discussion Max and John sign agreements
"in the spirit ofcomplying."
Mediation is about having an open mind and
putting all the information on th e tahle."
Stockwell said.

remember to drink plenty of water and eat a

America !?"
When I told her how often I was phoned
0 11 average, she cOllldn't believe it. She thought
it was ridiciliolis alld extremely rude. She told
llle that ill her cO llntry. phone calls cost a lot.
and that people just don 't do that out of
respect.
"You can advertise on radio alld TV." she

Telemarketing. despite it s efficiency and
quickll(,ss. is fast becoming a symbol of a fast movillg and overwhelmin g media marketing
campaigll. III a cOLI n try oflarge spaces. we have
qllickly losl a lot ofoll[ privacy in th e rmh for
our bllsiness.
What can Gree ners do?
Well. my only sugg<'stion is to tell the
telelllarketer that you are not interested in
their prodllct because th e last company you
dealt with would continue to call and send
junk mail eve n when you had refused their
servin's. And that you don 't support
companies that waste precio\.ls resources.
Now hurry up. don 't let ME keep your
food from getting cold '
