A clerk completes a transaction,
adding, "We don't want to ruin anyone's life
(with an arrest record), but we have to make
potential thieves realize that this behavior
cannot be tolerated."
Payne als o made some clarifications
regarding the story in the Dec. 1 CPJ about
bookstore theft. The $30,000 chalked up to
losses includes accounting errors, inventory
differences and damage as well as theft, though
theft accounts for a much larger portion of
those losses than in previous years.
The referral of the impact of theft on
higher retail prices was meant to refer to the
overall national retail picture , and not
exclUSively to Evergreen.
The bookstore hopes that taking these
deterrent measures will eventually lead to a
decrease in thefts at the bookstore. Caveat

While petty theft persists in the Bookstore,
man<!gement and administration have begun
exploring possible solutions to the problem.
Acting Bookstore Manager Robert Payne
wanted to stress that everyone 'at the
Bookstore, from Vice President Les Purce to
part-time student employees, is hard at wGrk
on the theft problem and that it was a team
effort.
As for prevention, Payne explained that
the college commissioned a study by the
general manager of the University of Oregon 's
bookstore that pointed out the vulnerabilities
in the store setup and procedures, The
consultant's report is being used extensively
in the revamping of store security.
Payne also said, "We're installing
security equipment similar to the library and
most other booksto'res on the order of 3"M's
Whispertapeno with door sensors, The layout
will be changed to eliminate dark or blind
spots, and the staff will receive additional
training in handling potential confrontations.
We don't want to mistreat ~
The theft of large items do'es1rot account
for the majority of the problem, despite
November's theft of a Macintosh Performa.
According to Paine, the store is literally 'nickel
and dimed' to death by small pilferage.
"That (the Macintosh) is really extremely
rare," said Payne, "but petty larceny can add
up to big losses in any store."
A problem during previous Evergreen
administrations was a reluctance to press
charges on individuals caugh t stealing,
preferring it be handled internally, a problem
Payne no longer feels exists.
Payne was quick to point out however,
that it was not a matter of being vindictive,

The building should be completed in
June of '95 and there are plans to bring
children from the Upward Bound program for
sleepoVi!rs and storytelling by fires as soon as
the building is finished. "And all of us kids can
do this," said Ray, She said that the Longhouse '
will be used "for the Convocation to welcome

we get to put that to work right away." The
official opening of the Long~ouse is set for

Ray said that "The goal is to bring some
of the native culture to the actual working of
the building to show the rest of the campus
how Indian people approach education; that
it is a collective effort that includes aU of the
generations ... men and women and a variety of

Northwest by the Scientific Panel on Late-Successional Forest Ecosystems. To top it off, under the new Forest Plan,
Sugadoafis in a design~ted Late Successional Reserve (created to P,ROTECf the Northern Spotted Owl) and it is in a
, Key Watershed. This area provides unparalleled habitat for
the rare Wolverine. Cougar. Black Bear, Pine Marten,
Siskiyou Mountain Salamander and is home to nesting Spotted Owlsl This habitat will be dissected and destroyed if the
Forest Service is allowed to log Sugarloaf.
Forest Service Lies: Siskiyou National Forest Supervisor, Mike Lunn. told the public that this sale was just a "light
thin" and that "only a few old trees" would be cut. He also
stated that most of the trees are less than 90 years old. The
facts: 1. This ~light thin" would cut 10 million board feet of
timberl 2. Twc:rthirds of the 10 million board feet would
come froql old growth trees. 3. Eighty percent of the sale area
contains trees over 250 years old. with some over 700 years
oLd and up to seven feet in diameter.
When confronted wi* the above facts the Regional
Forester;John Lowe, (Mike'Lunn's boss) promised that the
Forest Service woilld redo the sale to unmark more of the
big old growth 'tiees. John lied too, as a few weeks later the
sale was awarded to the Boise Cascade Corporation with absolute1y no changes ma,de. Boise Cascade can log Sugarloaf
at any time!

An open letter to Chase Manhattan Bank: (re:
Student loans & big earthquakes)
. This is the second morning in a row that I woke up
with blood in my mouth. I don't know why. My gums are
becoming buttery and if this trend continues I will
probably lose all my teeth in a matter of weeks. Should
this occur. I know what I must do: I will fashion a whole
new set of chompers from the bones of a lizard. Maybe
two lizards, if need be. I have heard that losing teeth is an
omen of one's own death, at least in the dreamtime
context. This is interesting, because at the moment I feel
on the verge of some sort of discorporation - a rebirth
in the grand scheme ofthings.lt snowed heavily last night
in Olympia, Washington - where, incidentally, I am
enrolled full time at The Evergreen State College (please
keep that fact in mind, as it will prove to be very pivotal
by the time this missive winds into its climax). I am not
embarrassed to say that I threw myself head-first into the
powdery crystals and floundered around like a fish for
quite while. What this has to do with bloody teeth,lizards
or the fact that you recently sent me a notice saying my
massive accumulation of stafford loan debt is in extreme
danger ofgoing delinquent, I'm not sure. However, it must
be noted that in this day and age, when ~UI wizards tell
us with powerful confidence that all of reality is simply a
mesh ofinterpenetrating energy fields, there is no longer
any such thing as foolish as the notion of objectivity,
coincidence or chance. To quote the forgotten sage who
will henceforth be referred to as Done Cliche, "All is one."
With this in mind, everything kind of phases into
perspective doesn't it? I have stacked my cards in a weird
way friends, and now I throw them on the table ... Faith
and Fate are playing in this game as well, and if it turns
out that one or both of them have been bluffing the whole .
time, things will most certainly get ugly - at least frommy perspective. On the other hand, if! have read Realty's
poker face correctly, things may get ugly from your
perspective. Let us consider a bit of Mayan/ Aztec
prophecy: there are Daykeepers in the highlands of
Guatemala who are counting the final days of history as I
write this and you read it. Every day that passes brings us
a little closer to the end of what these folks refer to as the
"Fifth Sun." According to their schematic, the dosing out
of a Sun (or Great Cycle) always brings a swift and savage
wave of destruction upon our planet; a little something
to clear our heads and remind us of our true place in the
big picture. Last time it was a flood, before that a rain of
fire, then jaguars eating people en masse and so on. Guess
what we have to look forward to this time around? Big
earthquakes! The whole thing dovetails perfectly with the
chaos and exponential acceleration manifesting itself on
all levels the world over. So, when half ofour global village
is underwater and the other halfis struggling to maintain
the basics ofexistence (food and shelter, for example), my
guess is that the industrial 9-5 mechanism - whiCh has
already brought us to the cusp of destruction without
natural intervention - will be forgotten. Chase
Manhattan, consequently, can be
understood as a museum of the future. In
the meantime, please overhaul your
computer systems, check your records
again, and realize that I have official in
school deferment protection from your
collection goons. When I graduate, most
likely in June of 1995, I will endeavor to
make good on my repayment - unless, of
course, I am in the Australian outback
looking for Lizards. Thanks for your time

Support the struggle in Cyprus:
help the Cyprus' Children's Fund
by Magdalena Scarato
Contributor
On July 20, 1974 the Turkish army brutally invaded the
island-nation of Cyprus located in the Mediterranean Sea.
Before the invasion, both Turkish and Greek Cypriots lived
together fairly harmoniously even though they were from
different religious and cultural backgrounds. On that day the
bloody hi story between Greece and Turkey eventually
interfered, creating a divided nation. Political unrest led up to
a great tragedy.
As a result of the] 974 invasion, 200,000 Greek Cypriots
were kicked out of their homes in the occupied area of northern
Cyprus and turned into refugees in the south. These families
have not been able to return to their homes since. Currently
800 Greek Cypriots live in the occupied area. Along with
harassment from the Turkish army they are faced with a painful
choice, for ifthey leave their home they aren't allowed to return.
The island was separated, a political line created, splitting
it into a Greek and a Turkish side. The invasion and its
numerous human rights violations has been condemned by
international organizations, such as the U.N. Many resolutions
have been passed to remove the Turkish military presence from
Cyprus but to no avail. Both the Greek and Turkish

IToo True Lies' one of the best
stories in CP J so far this year
Please don't feel obligated to print this,
but I would like to comITlent on the article,
':Too True Lies: True Lies & Stargate after the
Gulf War." This was one of the best stories to
come from the CPj this quarter. I found it
insightful, well-researched, and right on the
mark. It was also quite well-wdtten and
avoided the terse, over-simplified, "sound-bite"
sentences and paragraphs that plague most
journalistic writing. Thank you to Austin
Warren Dacey for exposing some of the
rampant racism in Hollywood productions.
There are, of course, interesting questions
raised by the short expose, but there isn't space
or time enough to root out all of the racism,
sexism, heterosexism, ageism, or any of the
. other diseases infecting our media and our
society. May I suggest, however, that you make
space in your paper for a regular column
looking at the various forms of oppression that
the American media perpetrates and
perpetuates?

governments have failed to resolve the Cyprus issue.
My grandfather Nicholas Matsakis has been very active
in supporting the struggling Cypriots. Being of Karpathian
(from Karpathos a Greek island in the Aegean Sea) descent and
having lived in Cyprus he is very emotionally attached to this
injustice. In his current home in St. Louis, Missouri Nick has
founded the Justice for Cyprus Committee'. This nonprofit
organization distributes a newsletter and collects money to send
to needy children through the Cyprus Children's Fund. The
money goes straight to the kids.
I have always wanted to support this specific cause ever
since I was a child hearing my family discuss the tragic effects
of the invasion on the Greek and Turkish Cypriots. My mother
used to tell me my Greek history as she danced. Perhaps
memories came back to her as she listened to the Hellenic music.
As I learned Greek folk dances and history I grew anxious to
contribute towards the well being of these struggling people.
Finally the opportunity has come! On Sunday Dec. 11 there
will be a Greek Dance Workshop at 2 pm! More information
on the situation of Cyprus will be available along with Greek
pastries and foods. All donations benefit the Cyprus Children's
Fund so drop by, learn a dance or two, or just get down with
some baklava. Everyone is invited! For more information or if

I am extremely disappointed with many
students at the "free-thinking" Evergreen State
College. Apparently there is an inability to get
a clue and think for yourself these days.
Everyone is so eager to jump on some political
bandwagon that all you need to hear are
pathetic one sided claims to misinformation,
injustice, or political prisoner status before
you're jumping to show support.
Well, before you rush to express your
uninformed solidarity, I advise you to check
into the False Memory Syndrome Foundation's
(FMSF) history and obvious motives.
To begin with, the FMSF's members are
almost exclus ively people who have been
accused of sexually abusing children. Hmm ...
Let's see ... What do you suppose is going on
here? Maybe I'm paranoid but this seems just
a little suspicious. The evidence is certainly
there. According to the FBI statistics, one in
four girls and one in eight boys are sexually
abused or raped by a fami ly member before
they are 18 years old. Well imagine that. You
can check the facts in any library.
Also, the claims of False Memory
Syndrome are not supported by any relevant,
empirical study or evidence. The American
Psychiatric Association does not and has never
recognized False Memory Syndrome as a
legitimate medical or psychological diagnOSis
and it is not listed in the latest edition of the
Diagnostic and Statistical Manual.
Additionally, Elizabeth Loftus, who claims that
her studies support the FMSF's assertions,
admits herself that she has never studied the
effects of memory in conjunction with
traumatic experiences such as abuse. Then
what the hell is she doing claiming to be an
authority on the subject? Clearly, the False
Memory Syndrome Foundation is a nonsense
pseudo-science and backlash tactical
maneuver.
Finally, Ralph Underwager, one of the
FMSF founders, and a current board member,
states the following in "Paidika, The journal of
Paedophilia." vol. 3, no. 1, 1993. Read it and
weep.
Pedophiles spend a lot of time and energy
defending their choice. I don't think that a
pedophile needs to do that. Pedophiles can
boldly and courageously affirm what they
choose. They can say that what they want is to
find the best way to love. I am also a theologian
and as a theologian I believe it is God's will that
there be closeness and intimacy, unity of the
flesh, between people. A pedophile can say:
"This closeness is possible for me within the
choices that I've made."
Pedophiles are too defensive.-They go
around saying, "You people out there are
saying that what I choose is bad, that it's no
good.
You're putting me in prison, you're doing
all these terrible things to me. I have to define
my love as being in some way or other illicit."
What I think is that pedophiles can make the
assertion that the pursuit of intimacy and love
is what they choose. With boldness they can
say, "I believe this is in fact part of God's will."
So kids, in case you haven't figured it out
yet, these people are creating pseudo-evidence
to support their vested interests. The few
points that I've made here are only the tip of
the iceberg. If you want to make an informed
decision before you take sides, go and do your
homework first. Please, don't be stupid enough
to support these individuals who have proven
their own capacity for crimes against
humanity.

Existance of ritual abuse a
documented fact, undeniable
by Raven Grace Kaliana
Contributor
The existence of ritual abuse is a
documented fact. As a matter of public record ,
many cases involving ritual abuse have been
prosecuted, and laws have been passed to
address offenders. Police forces and sexual
assault centers conduct training sessions on
how to confront this kind oforganized criminal
activity - not just in this state, but across the
country, around the world. Cases begin with
the testimony of survivors, but overwhelming
corroborative evidence must be presented in
order to bring the cases to court, much less
convince the juries beyond doubt that the
accused stand guilty of these crimes.
Perpetrators are convicted on specific
charges, such as rape, molestation, sexual
abuse, kidnapping, conspiracy, and murder,
rather than the broader term, "ritual abuse."
It is the testimony of the victims in these cases
which clearly marks the ritual aspect of the
crimes.
oSeptember, 1988, Santa Rosa, California
Darryl Ball and Charlotte Thrailkill were
both sentenced to prison terms on molestation
charges. Craig Lockwood states in Other Altars:
Roots and Realities ofCultic and Satanic Ritual
Abuse and Multiple Personality Disorderthat
in this case, the "prosecutor's opening
statement referred to the included murders."
oApril , 1990, Thurston County,
Washington
Former Thurston County Sheriff's
deputy Paul Ingram gave detailed
confessions corroborating his daughters'
allegations of ritual abuse and pled g u i I t Y
to six counts of rape. Addit ional law
enforcement officers were alleg'ed
to have
been involved.
.
oMarch, 1992, Mansfield. Ohio
Lawrence Rhode and Scott Butner were
sent to prison for child abuse.
Lockwood states that "Children also told.
of being taken from the church and witnessing
murder, cannibalism, and mutilation of
corpses. Parents of about sixty children
have urged that charges be filed against other
church members who allegedly were
involved .....
Additional prosecutions are listed in the
back of Other Altars, by Craig Lockwood. A
synopsis can be obtained through Calvacade
Productions , 7360 Potter Valley Road. Ukiah.
CA. 95482.
Disinformation is currently being
published as backlash against a realistic
response to hideous crimes perpetrated by
organized groups. Daniela Coates questions in
her article "Deb unking the Debunkers"
whether these writers ..... are not reacting to
their own issues around child abuse. One
wonders just what century these writers are
living in. Both in Canada and the States there
has been enough corroborating ('vidence in
enough cases that convictions have been
handed down. It's this kind of mounting
evidence that's led entire provinces and states
to develop ·tougher laws to deal with sexual
offenders and in some cases specifically with
ritual abuse."
Ritual abuse is a very real phenomenon
which demands discussion, publiC concern,
and action. Only when we accept the existence
of ritual abuse, can we work to bring an end to it.

played last year. She greeted me with a hint
of her new Texan accent.
Unlike the rest of the country, the
northwest, specifically Olympia, doesn't
really have aI} , accent. We generally
pronounce words how they are written and
don 't bother with twangs, extra r's or y'alls.
"Wow. I'm in Austin. I'm in Texas," I
kept repeating aloud.
Austin has its own airport, but so does
Olympia-I just don't know anyone who
uses it.
I traveled around Austin for nearly two
weeks in 70 plus degree weather. Vanessa,
not being the typical slacker, holds down a
forty hour a week job, so my days were left
to exploring Austin alone, on foot.
Austin is set up a lot like Olympia, just
bigger. They are a capital city, with a big
white capitol building, except theirs is bigger.

"Austin, Texas is this huge slacker place,
like Olympia but better"-that's what I've
been hearing since I first saw the movie
Slacker in Lecture Hall 5 four years ago. It
was back when two guys rented videos and
showed them for free every week, a practice
that was forced underground, and eventually
stopped, due to feder~l copyright laws.
But Texas? This is a state that considers
itself an entire Republic. I was doubtful,
skeptical of this alternative place: asking
myself what was so good about a town full
of slackers anyway?
With the frequent flier tickets Joe had
sent me to go and see him in Boston over
winter break-Joe's my dad and he Lives in
Boston-I booked a red-eye to Austin
instead. I was going to find out for myselfjust
how cool this place actually was.

one ever has to catch planes in Olympia.
In flight, I tried to decide if Austin was
all everyone said, if, shudder to think, it was
better then Olympia. I thought about slackers
and how you wou ld go about being one. I
thought about the OK Cola ad in the paper I
was reading, and the five dollar whiskey sour
I bought in the air:port lounge.
I did like Austin. It was a nice place. I
just like Olympia better. Austin is a pretty
normal, mainstream type of place. They're a
big city with some nice attempts at diversity
and irregularity. Olympia is essentially
quirky, though. Olympia lias so much
character, puts so much of itselfin everything
it does, that it just makes it all worth it. I don 't
think J'llieave again for a while.

HANDMADE DRUMS
I just love the word Olympia.
I love that there are two happy hours
at my favorite bar, even on Saturday-that's
a buck a drink served by the best cocktail
waitress ever. I love that we can see Natural
Born Killers on a giant screen for only a
dollar. And I love the fact that two of
Olympia's heaviest bands are back in time
for the holidays.
Okay, that last one isn't necessarily on
Fourth, it is on Fifth at the Capitol Theater .
Backstage, but you can get their through
several streets and an overly convenient
alley.
The heaviest bands? Fitz of Depression
and Karp.
True, you can see Fitz and Karp in
Austin-but at some bar, not on the
backstage of a historic relic. Olympia is the
only place in the universe where all the
action, both performance and audience,
happens entirely on the stage.
The boys from Olympia played Austin
at a place called Emo's. The sign for Emo's
has the slogan UA lternative Lounging,"
which is pretty cheesy. Inside was nice, but
small, with two pinball machines and a
couple of pool tables.
Emo's is 18 plus, where people over
twenty-one get special stamps to drink.
Washington law prohibits situations such as
this, which pretty much sucks for people
under 21. At Emo's though, admission for
over 21 is free, whereas 18-20 costs. The nice
thing about places in Austin, too, is that they
all have patios or beergardens-the weather
supports such things.
I was at Emo's the night Fitz and Karp
were supposed to play.l really wanted to see
them. There's nothing better than seeing a
hometown band in another locale. I didn't
get to see them, however, because my damn
vacation was over-my plane took off at the
same time Fitz went on stage, This made

Geoduck swim teams beat several records
by Jan Smisek
CPJ COlltribwor
The Evergreen men and women's swim
teams opened the season two weeks ago by
hosting the Pacific Lutheran University Lutes
and Western Washington University Vikings
un the weekend of Nov. 11.
Last weekend the Geoducks traveled to
Ellensnerg to participate in a four-way meet
against the Central Washington Bulldogs,
Whitworth Pirates and Whitman Missionaries. Team records and personal best were recorded in all meets and freshman Milu Karp
clocked TESC's first national q~ing time
of the season-inTh'efirst meet.
Against the Lutes, Evergreen swimmers
placed first in three events. Karp's time of
1:06.3 in the 100m back stroke was good for a
first place and a new college record for women.
James Carsner finished first in the 50m
freestyle and second in the 100m freestyle with
Garren Oura taking first in the 100m breast
stroke for the men.
