funding up to the nation al average of $6,254
per student. Curren tl y, the state spends
$5,350 per student at Evergreen.
Coll eges are asked to make up th e lack
of st a te mon ey by raising tuition . The
H ECB board sets a cap on tuition increases
for all the public colleges each year. The
individual coll eges ca n determine how
much th ey want to raise their tuition wit hin
that limit. Because of th e $2.5 billion state
deficit last year, the state had less money fo r
higher education . Facing a five - percent cut
in funding, co lleges opted to raise tu ition
to th e limit.
The state used to tell the colleges what
their tuitions would be. But that has sin ce
changed. The HECB Master Plan for 2004
states the trend simply: "The cost of public
higher ed ucati on is being transferred from
th e state to students and their families. "
Edie Harding is an employee of the
college who works with the state legislature.
She thinks the state changed the way it
funded state institutions to give them more
"flexibility and accountabi lity." She also
added that th ey did it to " .. . not take heat
for tuition increases ."
Luckily, state need grants have grow n
with the rising cost o f tuition. The share
of the higher edu ca ti on budget going to
fin ancial aid increased from four perce nt in
199 1 to ten percent in 200 1-20 03.
What Now?
The HEC B prese nted its recommendations to Governor Loc ke. Hi s office

recommendations will be proposed to th e

Craves doesn't hold much hop e that
the legislature will approve this inc rease in
funding when th e fi scal fore cas t looks as
grim as it did last year.
"My first step is to con vince them to
step up to the plate and be leaders," he said.
However, at the end he believes it will be

When I went to watch What I've
Learned About Foreign Policy: The War
on the Third World, I was expecting a feelgood flick. I didn't know the c.1.A. had
stuck its dick in so many foreign affairs
that it shouldn't even be a part of ou r
government anymore.
The movie begins with John Stockwell,
the highest-ranking C.I.A. agent ever to
resign and come forth with the truth to
the press. He cites 3,000 illegal operations
performed by the C.I.A. and the N.S .A.
in the last 50 years since WWII which
disrupted and destroyed the lives of those
in the Third World. We've funded death
squads, armed heroin dealers and traders,
hired Nazis to spy on Russia, sold weapons
to Iran and Iraq, hired the Mafia to assassinate Castro, overthrown governments in
Chile, installed dictators, funded genocide,
traded arms for hostages in Iran, trained
assassins and war criminals (School of
Americas), and our sanctions on Iraq ~ver
the last decade have killed 1.5 million
people . Let's not forget Vietnam, Laos,
Cuba, Bolivia, Greece, Bolivia, Brazil,
Indonesia, East Timor, Congo, Nicaragua,
Panama, and Guatemala. These are all the
countries mentioned in the film where our
shadow government has been operating in
secret trying to control power and resources,
prevent the spread of communism, stop
the drug war, etc. The people of America
had no say in any of these military actions
and were blinded by a string of bloody lies,
miles long, that has yet to be fully cut. We
still put up with it.
It's hard to know what to make of
this, how to understand it, and what to do
with all this information. It sounds like
the American people should petition to
eliminate these agencies from our government or make laws to consult the public
before any actions are taken. It doesn't mllke
any sense: then aga in, what does? There

7:58 P.M. A light blue bike and helmet were found lying in the grass between the Pavilion and lower soccer field. It was transported to Police Services
and logged in as recovered property.

4:00 P.M. I want to ride my bicycle! I want to ride my bike!! But since a red and black mountain bike was stolen from the dorms over the weekend, I can't.
At least that's the sad song being sung right now. The owner had just bought the bike and kept it in his apartment, but over the weekend, a lot of uninvited
guests were in the dorm area, and that main door was left unsecured. The owner thought that this was when the bike could have been taken. Well ... This is
enough to stop the lovely residents from having any more parties. I hope you are all happy with yourselves. And return the poor boy's bicycle.

1:53 p.m. What is this? The week of the thieves? In the CRC someone had their pants, shorts and pager stolen. People need pants. You should not steal
them. Pants are important things. They keep legs warm and people decent.
5:13 p.m. As a woman was getting out of a car, she got punched in the nose. More startled then hurt, she yelled at her aggressor "What are you doing?"
as the other person got into a car and drove off. I have just one question ... Was this a twisted dare? This was pointless, it was someone getting out of a car,
what, did they offend you in some way? Just chill. It'll help everyone out.

1 :18 a.m. During a walk-thru of A dorm, the elevator alarm went off. Seems a little fishy, so the call button was pushed so that the elevator would stop,
and Police Services could find out who was playing around in there. Once the door opened, a little drunken boy came out. It was pretty obvious that he was
drunk, since he couldn't stand up straight, slurred his words and smelled of alcohol. He was asked if he'd been drinking, and answered that he had been.
Since he was under 21, he was sent to the Campus Adjudicator. (I think that's the grievance counselor, but don't hold me to it.)
1 :43 a.m. An MIP!?! Craziness .... But it's true, during the walk-thru of the dorms; a guy was seen walking around with a glass of beer. When asked if hc
was under 21, he said that he was, and was given a bright shiny MIP for his efforts.
1 :50 a.m. Another MIP... But here's the catch. This person was caught with a bottle of Mountain Dew. What's so strange about that you ask? Well, the
liquid in the bottle was dark colored, brown even, and Mountain Dew is yellow, and fairly light colored. That would be the first clue, and when asked about
the drink, the girl said that it was Mountain Dew, but the officer said that it didn't look like it, and requested the bottle. Upon smelling the drink, it was
determined that it was not an odd batch of Mountain Dew, but alcohol. For her efforts, she gets an MIP.
1:37 p.m. Another stolen bike gets added to the list of thefts this week . This is just getting ridiculous. The bike stolen here didn't even have a front tire.
.::.

1 :22 a.m. One walk-thru plus one thrown can of Olympia beer equals one MIP. But the tosser of the beer denied throwing it until he was told that
he had been seen throwing it. Crafty police officers . . . Watching thi ngs. He then said that he threw it because he wasn't 21. He was taken into cu stody
and given a courtdate.
6:10 p.m. A gray and black mountain bike is reported stolen. The rash of bike thefts continues, but my only hope is that community stays calm. And the
thief returns his ill-gotten goods. Fork them over: it's not nice to take things.
7:30 p.m. Q dorm and a burnt bagel cause trouble for the local fire department as a fire alarm goes off

A thorough examination of the oldest, overly played-out, simple, and complex subject in the world
by Nate Hogen
Being a man co nfident in his knowledge
about se x and all th ar e nco m passes the
m arre r, I didn't really think I needed to,
atrend a sex wo rkshop, but since I never
have befor e (b esid es th e grueling sex-ed
ex perience from fo urth grade through hi gh
sc hool ) I decided it was tim e aga in to learn,
refresh , revi se, and explore. I had an idea
o f what was in store, but I was blown away
by th e amount of informatio n laid out by
\ th e fa cili tators, including VOX/pl anned
parenthood, students from Eve rgreen, (felbtio) Ph il Harrington, a quee r rran sgender
pee r sex educato r, and Dana C lark, a selfd escribed "sex -positi ve pleasure advoca te
whose pass ion is to create space that allows
women to aba nd o n their shame around sexpast, p resen t, and future" who did a presen tation on 'toys.' My favor ite parr was the
shorr segment she did on BDSM (Bondage.
Discip line. Dom inance, Subm iss ion. and
Sadomaso chisiTI). It was ho t, es peciall y
the red ra.bbi t fur flogger. I'm sorry for all
you vegans our there, but you are mi ss in g
o ut.
I h ave to say, I had neve r worn a thigh
strap-on and I don't think I ever wi ll agai n
because havi ng a rubber ap pendage dan glin g
off your leg just does messed up , crazy
thi ngs to your brain. The most interesting
(or maybe bizarre). part of the presentation
was when we all put on la tex gloves, lubed
'e m up , and massaged grape fruits whil e
inse rting our fingers in tiny holes to simulate

ana l stimulation. Now, I don't know-who
or what came up with this idea, but it's the
greatest and grossest thing ever. Watching
people violate grapefru its is also life altering.
Before this liberating experience men in
th e room were made to feel inadequate
whil e holdin g dildos about the size of a
horse's Johnson. Im agine holding three of
th ese at o nce and you are moved to tears
or excitement depending on yo ur personal
feeli ngs towards the peni s. Some of th ese
tool s looked like the y wo uld be better
fo r plumbing rath er than pleasurc, but
to each hi s ow n, ri gh t) Anyway, through
thi s segment all I could think about was
watc hin g Real Sex 10 or somet hin g on
HBO a few years back and seeing poor old
Asian wome n in fo reign facto ri es on an
assembly line wea ring smocks and dipping
these mo lds into huge vats of sticky latex.
"And I think to myse lf, what a wo nderfu l
world ."
Earlier, I was informed that introductio ns
entailed purring on a latex glove, lubing it.
and se nsuall y asking someone in the room
if they could "stoke, shake, or massage" the
ot her people's hands. I'm so rry I missed this.
but it would have changed my perception of
the handshake fo r the rest of my life .
Peer sex educato r Phil Harrin gton said.
" We wanted to get th e participanrs ro
practice articulating their personal sexual
desires, so merhing not encouraged in our
culture. We also wanted to help attendees
realize that latex and communication during
sex ca n be incred ibl y sexy wi th pracrice."

And rightfully so-:- I'm-surprised we don't
use full body co ndoms considering all the
STI's (Sexually T ransm itted Infections)
yo u can contract from other people while
exchangin g body fluids . It is a wonder we
have sex at all anymore, but we always want
pleasure and a little danger, so being risque
is the way to go sometimes.
The point of Harrington's presentatio n
was that you don't have to risk deat h in
order to get off, in filCt you shou ldn't. If they
had gone any deeper into safe sex we would
have all been wea ring chastity belts by the
end of the workshop. Thankfully, we were
taught just abo ut every co nceivable way of
prac ri cing sex without havi ng intercourse.
They went over the proper way to put on a
condom using bananas as a model. whi ch
reminded me of an infamous conversation
I had with my mother when I was sixtee n,
but that's another story. Oh. and watching
a roo m full of people put co ndom s on
bana nas with their mouths is an abso lute
riot. Befo re, I thought Sa ran Wrap was on ly
good for preserving leftovers a nd making
costumes. but apparently it's a great barrier
for intimare hum an contact. Will wonders
never cease?
D esp ite most of the people you know
looking healthy, STJ's and HIV are more
rampant than ever and this was probably
the main concern of most people attending
the workshop. This is why the safe sex
part was so important because in these
times you can't just throw on a co ndom
and call it good. You have to take many

Every once in a while an opportunity
comes along to hear, firsr hand, the
opinions of important individual~ in the
world of politics. Such an opportunity
presented itself to KAOS on Nov. 6, when
Tony Kundiero. the Mal awi Ambassador,
came to vi sit the college.

with a population of 10 million . It
is landlocked between Mozambique,
Tanzania, and Zambia. Of the nations
citizens, 15% (a tragic 800,000) are
infec ted with HIV/AIDS. 70,000 are
expected to die from the disease each year.
As such, the average life span of a Mal awi
reside nt is only 37 years.
Much of this is the res ult of poor ·
educati on; literacy ra tes in M a lawi are
58%. Of course, education depends
largely o n eco nomic a nd social facrors,
a nd one reason for the low lite racy rate
is that 90% pe rcent of Malawians live in
rural areas . I n these rora I areas, safe wa ter
is almost non-existent.
Thus the c1can w ater projec t.

(hat issue like waste in th e w ater could
be avo ided.
"Tec hnol ogies, for example, that
would allow us to irrigate our land so tha t
we would be able to have more than one

irrigating the water systems would greatly
increase th e cleanlin ess of drinking

According to tradition, the Nubian kings
converted to Christianity either through
the efforts of Co ptic missionaries from
Egypt or through a Byzantine missionary
sent by Empress Theodora in rhe fourth or
sixth century. Islam began to spread with
the death of the Prophet Muhammad
in A.D. 632 Arab Muslims destroyed
the Christian cathedral in the Nubian
city of Dunqulah in 652. but they did
not gain control of th e region until the
13th cenrury. Under th e a uthority of
the Ottoman Empire, Ara b mamluks,
soldier-administrators, ousted the Nubian
king at Dunqulah and installed military
rulers. thus began the decline of C hri stian
Nubia and the rise of a military-oriented
Islamic government. Nubia was re named
Sudan, the Arab word mea ning black
p eo ple . Ara b Muslim rule continued
until thc late 19(h century, when Charles
Gordon, ;\ British o fficer. was named th e
sove reign authority of Sudan. The British
colonial rule co ntinued until Sudan won
its independence in 1956.

In 1983, the Anya Nya emerged as

To th e stud ents. facu lty and staff of the
Evergreen State College:
I find the, re cent annou nceme n t by
Evergreen police chief, Steven Huntsberry,
th at the TESC police will now be armed
24 hours a day, 7 days a week. outrageous,
Unless the police are disarmed, S0l11eone is
likely to be shot by the campus police in th e
next few years. Let us act now to return to
a campus where the police are not carrying
weapons that can kilL
As people may remember, al though
students and faculty voted overwhelmingly
a few years ago that the campus police
shoul d not be armed, Art Costantino,
then-President Jane Jervis, and the Trustees
decided on a limited arming of the police,
mainly at night and when a lot of money
was being transported. Many of lis predicted
then that over time the police would become
armed all of the time. Sadly, this is exactly
what has happened . Vice-President Art
Costantino and the TESC administration
have acquiesced and/or promoted this fulltime arming. Where are the faculty, staff and
administration who thought that limited
arming was a reasonable compromise? Why
aren't they loudly protesting the full arming
of the police, 24 hours a day; are they
waiting until the police have tactical nuclear
weapons before they speak up?
The arming of the campus police has
led to a situation where there is further
division and alienation between much of
the campus community and many of the
TESC police. Weapons are increasingly
being drawn by the police_ There also seems
to be racial profiling in terms of who gets
stopped and harassed while driving on the
Evergreen Parkway.

dangerou s Situ atiOn, notc for example.
comments in the C P) of No.vem~er 7 ,
2002. The res pon se by adml1l1stratlOn to
gu ns being pulled on stud ents in the dorms
by TESC sec urity in a marijuana raid,
was only to quesrion whether the police
should have reported that they drew their
guns. The drawing of guns was not even
questioned by Huntsberry and Costantino.
Is that what we want to turn this campus
into, where guns are increasingly aimed at
us by those who are supposed to protect
us? Guns being drawn build fear and will
lead to someone being shot. Does this build
community and trust?
The Olympia Police killed a perSOh last
Thursday, November 7, 2002 at Bayview
Market for the crime of shoplifting. He was
killed by being shot repeatedly by Tasers,
which the campus police also have, Do we
want that to happen here?
I urge students, staff and faculty to
oppose the arming of the police 24 hours a
day, and that we begin to figure out how to
return the campus to how it existed for 27
years, with the police disarmed. Personal
safety is a concern, but let us creatively deal
with safety, not by creating a situation where
many of us feel even more unsafe because
we dQ not trust some of the TESC police.
Disarming would build community and
reduce the divisions and tensions between
campus security and the rest of the people
here.

Open Letter
to the Evergreen Community
by Art Costantino, Vice Pr,esiejent for Student Affairs
You may be aware that during the week of October 21. 2002. to Ocrobcr 27, 2002.
Evergreen police officers obtained search warrants 311d arrested students in CWo residence hall
rooms. These students were charged with dealing drugs . Questions have been raised as to who
authorized these actions. As ] have been making clear throughout the week, I authorized the,e
actions. In what follows, I will explain what I authorized and why.
In Fall quarter 200 I , tW? students were hospitalized after ingest ing hallucinogeni c
mushrooms. In a well-publiCized case, one of these students removed his clothes and went
on a campus-wide rampage during which he assaulted five individuals and intentionall y
cracked the wmdshleld of an automobile with his head. This fall, we had fWO more students
hospitalized after consuming mushrooms, One of these students ransacked his room and tried
[0 choke one of his roommates. In the second case that occurred this fall, the student was
so ill that attending physicians informed us that he might not survive, About three weeks
ago, our Director of Police Services, Steve Huntsberry, shared with me his belief that the
drugs inge~ted. in these four situations were being sold on campus by the same non-student.
Ste~e also mdlcated that our best chance of apprehending this individual was ,to utilize a
plam-c1othes officer to arrange a buy of the mushrooms. Given the seriousness of the
situation, I authorized this st.e~ . This was the first time in eight years at Evergreen that
I h.ave app~oved s~ch an act IYI ty, and I believe it was justified, While engaged in this
plam-c1othes operatl?n, th~ officer became aware of two felony drug-selling operations being
conducted by Housmg reSidents. Steve Huntsberry 'authorized the arrest of the individuals
involved in the alleged drug-selling operations. In both cases, hundreds of dollars' worth
of marijuana and cash were recovered.
Separate issues have emerged regarding the manner in which the search warrants were
exe~uted, The most frequently expressed concern is the fact that officers did not' report that
th~1r firearms ~ere dra~n when they gained entry to the fWO rooms in which the drugs were
being sold. ThiS matter IS under review by Steve Huntsberry and will also be reviewed by the
Deadly Force Review Board. The Deadly Force Review Board is a board composed of faculty,
staff, students: a representative of an outside law enforcement agency, and a member of the
Evergreen polace force. I convene this advisory board-when a firearm is drawn. I would be
'
happy to share information about this part of the process upon request.
.1 am a proponent of the campus taking responsibility for its own policing. In doing so, ]
?elaev~ that our officers h~ve an opportunity to be different from officers in other jurisdictions
In their level of commumty erigagement, sensitivity, and communication. ] also believe that
campus law enforcement provides a special opportunity for campus members to be aware of
the decis~ons o~ those who supervise the police. As the Vice President to whom police report; I
thought It was Important for you to be aware of my decision and the basis for it.

every morning for eighteen years. He looked
at the thermos, as if to confirm what she
had just told him. A tea bag hung out. She
had brought some tea.
"Well, if you want some, I brought some
tea. I just wanted you to know."
"Thanks." There was no point in dragging out an argument. She could have gone
on for days assuring him that he was indeed
welcome to the tea. "We're here to watch
her. Can't I just watch her?"
Joan looked intently at the action on the
field . "She really can handle the ball. Jesus,
look at her go."
"She might even score."
"She's a defender. Defenders don't score."
Joan shot a look at her husband like he didn't
even know the color of their daughter's
eyes. She took her eyes off of his face and
moved her glance to his bowler hat. She
wanted to imagine him thinking, trying to
remember the color of his daughter's eyes.
But all Joan could think about was that
they'd been living apart for fourteen months
and he still wore the same hat he wouldn't
take off during their honeymoon.
"All I'm saying is, she's handling it so well
she might score. Even 'i f she's a defender."
"It could happen."
"Yeah, it could happen all right." He
weakly smiled at his wife.
The game was in garbage time now.
Evergreen was going to win. Dennis smoked
a cigarette and looked for somewhere to
take a leak. Somewhere else, he might go iri
the woods, but he didn't want to go in
the woods here . One of the hippie kids
might think he was making some lame
arrempt to be like them. He went into the

gym and found the bathroom. He relieved
himself and went back to catch the end
of the game.
"You want some tea? You just, you know.

"
"Sure. I'd like some tea." Joan wiped
the rim of the Thermos and handed it to
Dennis.
"That's some tea there, you know? You
make really good tea." Christ. He sounded
like he wanted to marry her.
Joan looked at !lim. He was looking
at her. He looked like he was glad she
brought tea.
'
"She played a hell of a game."
"It's not like you can count how many
goals she scored," Dennis said. "Defenders
don't score."
"Well, I still think she played a hell of
a game."
"Yeah. A hell of a game_ "
Joal! tugged at her husband's sleeve. "We
can do right together. She played a hell
of a game. "
'
Dennis was no longer concerned about
the hell of a game. "I love you," he told
Joan. He got of the bench and went to his
car. He lit another cigarette and adjusted
the rearview mirror.
Then he went home.

count. One of our players had already
gone to school in Seatde. Graduated." Joan
asked why this was importal)t. "It means
she can't play for another school. It's the
rules." Joan asked what would happen to
the other games. "None of them happened.
The Association says. that none of those
games ever happened," Dennis thought for
a second while she was silent. "I know, I
know, it's crazy," he told her. "But even
if the game didn't count, it happened. It
happened because you and me were there,
and we shared tea." Joan wanted to know
about their daughter, what would happen
with all those games she played that all of a
sudden didn't happen? Dennis thought for
a second. "I don't know," he said. "There's
always next year." His wife told him that

yes, she was young, and next year will
be better. "But even if it didn't happen,
it happened." Joan asked him what he
meant. Dennis tried to exp'lain. "] know
it happened because I went there and you
were there, and I fell in love with you
again." She wanted to know if this meant he
wanted them to get back together. Dennis
explained that it did. "I used to miss your
coffee, but now I miss your tea." Dennis
thought that was a pretty good thing to say
under the circumstances. Joan explained
that she still needed some time to think
about it, but she didn't think they should
get back together now. Dennis told Joan
he understood and hung up the phone. He
picked up the newspaper and read about
the Seahawks' quarterback.

Monday afternoon Dennis read the
sports section. The Seahawks took another
pounding on Sunday. They were going
to bench their quarterback There was an
article about the Geoducks on the other
page. "Geoducks forfeit eight wins over
academic ineligibility scandal," it said.
Dennis looked at the games, saw the
one he and Joan had gone to, and called
his wife.
"Joan," he said, "Did you see the paper?"
Joan told him that she had not seen the

Who Is This Bush Person, Anyway?
bY Sky Cosby
This week TH just throw a little trash
about Bush out there for the ravenous
hounds of politics' to chew on. Perhaps
this information will prompt others to
dig a little deeper into the backgrounds of
persons in high places of power, Perhaps it'll
land me in jail. Who knows? They know.
So for all you conspiracy theorists out there,
go chase down a few bones. If you trace the
Bush family, their name, their money, their
friends, their influences, their actions and
their beliefs, back through the
archives of history a few rather disturbing
things pop up. We'll start at the beginning.
George Herbert Walker (GW's grandpappy) helped finance the Russian
Revolution and Adolf Hitler's steel cartel.
Prescott
Bush played golf routinely with Allen
Dulles, then head of the CIA, who has
past involvement with Hitler's bankers.
George Bush Sr. held' hearings in 1969
on the dangers of too many black babies
being born and then went on to start the
Gulf War. He also founded several government groups including the Standing Crisis
Pre-Planning Group, Crisis Management
Center, Terrorist Incident Working Group,
and the Taskforce on Combating Terrorism.
(What do you think he was counting on
happening?)
There's a lot of dirt under this rug so' I'll
just list all the lousy laundering and let you

•

do the cleaning. The Bush family has direct
or indirect connections to the following:
Oklahoma City Bombing, Panama and
Noriega, the Committee of 300, Saddam
Hussei n's CIA-aided installation in 1968
(Bush loaned him tons of money knowing
full well he was buying arms instead of
food), poison gas sales out of a CIA front in
Chile, the Bank of Credit and Commerce
International, the Mossad, EI Salvador, Swiss
money washing, the Rockefeller family,
Colombia drug cartels, Exxon, Grenada,
Lebanon, the Bay of Pigs Invasion (whose
top-secret codename, Zapata, happens to
share the same name as the Bush family's
oil company), the Rothschild family, the
Carnegie family, Vietnam, the Mafia, the
Iran-Contra arms and drug deals, CBS,
experiments in mind-control and hypnosis
as a way of political assassination, the
massive bombing of Cambodia (while
George ~ush Sr. was US ambassador to
Red Cll'ina), NATO, Watergate, the Tower
Commission, the Greek shipping magnate
Aristotle Onassi s (did you know that in
Gieek custom if you kill someone you're
supposed to marry their wife and take
care of their family? JFK -Jackie Onasis ...
hmmm), the Ku Klux Klan, RJ. Reynolds,
Proctor and Gamble, Giovanni Agrelli
($60 billion Italian mogul and head of
Fiat), the Bilderberg Group (look this one
up!), Ford Motor Company, the Trilateral
Commission, the WTO, covert CIA hiring

operations at Yale, the Skull and Bones
Society, the Council on Foreign Relations,
the KGB, the Contras in Nicaragua, the
Freemasons, the list goes on. Basically every
major deal, swindle, scheme and shenanigan
since the 1800s can be traced back to the
hands of a few powerful families that are
still jerking the strings today. The info
is all there, a genealogy of corruption
and greed. So why can't we do anything
about it? Because everyone who speaks out
dies in a mysterious accident or "commits
suicide."
There is also, evidence that the Bush
family is closely linked to the assassinations
of Malcolm X, JFK, Bobby Kennedy and
Martin Luther King Jr. George Bush Sr.'s
mentor was Henry Kissinger, one of the
most evil, conniving men to ever walk this
earth. Bush Sr. helped st~rt the Sterilization
League of America (noW poly-morphed
into Planned Parenthood) whose motives
include sterilization programs in non-white

countries and master race policies passed
down from the New World Order.
The Bush family owns Pennzpil and
controls so much money, so many judges,
attorneys and banks that we'll probably
never get close to them . Dick Cheney
was on the House Select Committee to
Investigate Covert Arms Transactions with
Iran and helped absolve Bush of any blame
in the Gulf War arms deals.
I could go on and on but I think I'm
already over the word limit. Check out a
book entitled .. .AnJ th~ Truth ShaD
Set YIIu Free, all of the "facts" in this
article were taken from this book. If you
don't think that all this shit is interconnected
and masterminded then you're just a fool
who votes blindly and is happy in utter
ignorance and petty pleasute. Figure it out
and do something about it. And if I die in
the next week please, shed a tear. (Oh, and
guess what? There's no drug testing
for White House employees!)

AJthough The Devil's Ordinary has been open since Halloween, the coffeehouse held
irs first rock show la., t Saturday, a benefit for Olyrripia Cop Watch. In the wake of the
btal tazering of a suspected s hoplifrer at the Bayview Thriftway, O lympia Cop Watc h
has a new se nse of urge ncy, and Saturday's show ki cked off a new wave of acr ivism for
the warchdog group. A di verse lin eup of loca l ban d s (a nd one Seat tl e band) kicked off
a nighr oFacrivism and coffee.
For rhe past three weeks, th e Java Flow on Washingron Stree t has turned irself in IU
a pertormance venue at ni ghr, going by th e more siniste r Devi!,s O rd inary moni ke r. In a
co mmo n a rra ngement aro und row n, the employees, all co-owliers of rhe spJCe, ge t con trol
after th e end of regubr busil1<'ss hours. Ch ri s, one o f these employee-operators , called it
"3 space for a rts to happen. " Afte r pointing out the exorbitant fees th at oth er ve nu es in
town cha rge bands, he claimed, "it's vital ro the town [Q have a low-overhead per forman ce
space," and The Devil 's Ordinary d efin itely fills that need. In add ition, the dearth of
all-ages venues in Olympia h as stranded the ciry's underage population, which includes
many Greeners. C hris noted that since the Aerospace shutdown, "there's been a big hole
in all-ages events . People need places where they can hang out for hours arid hours and
not get harassed. Especially kids in high schooL"
.
Unfortunately, the first rock show at The DeviI's Ordinary was not held to celebrate
coffee's triumph over what Chris dubbed "The ' alcohol/bar culture," but to ptotest the
latest fatality at the hands of the police, When asked where the four dollar suggested
donation was going, employee-operator Amber joked, "for a video-camera [for Cop
Watch)". While Indicator Species opened the night with their jam-band meets in die
aesthetic, Seattle's Self-Induced and Deconditioned followed with a much stronger message.
While Self-Induced's songwriter seemed to plunder the Minor Threat back catalogue, their
technical ability and positive aggression went over well with the crowd, even when their
singer asked "What's this a benefit for?" Deconditioned turned that aggression into anger,
which came to a head when the night's impromptu MC miffed at their refusal to honor
his request for "Fuck Tha Police," grabbed the guitar and microphone and attempted to
perform it himself. Self-Induced's guitarist, the owner of the bogarred guitar, looked on

Despite what just about any docto r wi ll tell you, pizza is good fu r yuu. It enco lllPasses

who se t up the review and I was more than happy to accommodate and give my opinion
as I believl' there is nu suclt thing as bad pizza, jusr pizza that 's been neglected and did nor
receive the time and love it deserved . Which was obviously not the case in this situation.
The Indie Rock, Oly Kids, Tattoo Crew gracefully spinning dough behind the counter
was kind ly accommodating and the head chef Aid an mad e sure I was enjoying every bite.
Sin ce I don't chew my food much and tend to inh ale, I alm ost choked wit h a reply of
comp lete and utler satisfaction, even if I hadn't enjoyed it (whi ch I did), I was certainly
full and only after two slices.
In spite of my effons, I was incapable of eat ing slow, but that didn't stop the pizza
from blowing my mind. I had a Greener with Vic's red sa uce, mozzarella, fresh spinach,
mushrooms, red peppers, red on iun, and roasted garlic and The Four Chees'e O lympia with
spinach walnut pesto base, red peppers, kalamata olives, red onions, feta , fontina, pecorino,
and mozzarella. Both very simi lar, but with distinct differences. Each was soft, gooey, full of
fl avo r, not too much, not too liul e, just right. Cooked until rhe bread was warm and toppings
cru nchy with the right mix of spices to ensure seductive breath that will remind you for weeks
of that pleasuring experience you had with yo ur sli ces of pie. Most people think garlic a nd
onion breath isn'r sexy, but we're talking about pizza , onl y the most romam ic cheap meal on
the planet , so argumcllI s against tend to wear rhin.
On the side, I tried a variety of pasta sa lad and COUS-COllS. I preferred th e pasta salad

It's All About The Music, Man:
Join the Musicians Club but
don't become a Behind The
Music cliche
by Mark EiYdrycbowskl
There is a new club on campus called th e
Musici ans' C lub. It's a place wh e re people ca n
get together and discuss anything pertaining
to music. If you're lookin g to find, sell or
exchange an in strument, they ca n help. Soon,
they will have a d es ign ated meeting place,
where instrume nts can be played, friends can
be made, and all can have good times. But
for now they're meeting in the CAB outs ide
the CPJ room (4th floor) on Wednesdays at
5pm. Stop by if your heart so desires. Topics
of discussion vary widely. Because the Club
is new, ideas are being thrown around about
the possibilities of events, patties, and things
to take place in the future. You don't need to
know anything about music, just come and
help out if you want to see the intoxicating
effect of music spread over this campus.

king of the mountain and then not even being
allowed to climb it." Directo rs Morgan and
Burstein, who made 2000's equally impressive

many families gather to gorge themselves in hoards
of fatty high cholesterol feasts. At the center of those
feasts will lie a glistening carcass, a tortured bird, its
body a charred, barely recognizable mass of flesh with

father asks his child on Thanksgiving Day. "Well

corpse at the center of the table.
Hundreds of millions of turkeys end up on the
American dinner plate every year. 'Where do these
turkeys come from?' you might ask innocently. The
startling truth is that half a billion turkeys are being
hatched in the U.S . every year where they typically

In the inaugural game between the Evergreen State College C eoducks and the St.
Martin Saims, in support of the Thurston County Food Bank, the Saints walked imo
the Evergreen State Co ll e~e Recreation Center, and ran away with an 88-68 vi ctory
over the Geoducks.
The game was relatively even throughout th e first half as the rvvo teams exchanged
basket for basket. With time winding down in the half, the S;unts found tht'lnselves
clinging to a four point lead. After a Geoduck turnover with about 2:30 to go, th e: Saints
rallied and went on a 7-0 run to close out the half. The Saints shot an outstanding 7 1 <)Ic,
(20-28) from th e field and went into the locker room with a 49-38 lead.
During halftime, Evergreen H ead Coach John Barbee to ld his team, " In order to win
this ball game we have to limit our turnovers, and keep them off th e offenSIve glass . So far
I they have 10 offensive rebounds and th ey rurned that into 8 seco nd chance po ints." W ith
/ th at in mind , the Geodu cks cam e out in th e second half and cut th e Saints' lead to 7.
However, Evergreen co uld not capitalize o n th e keys that Coach Barbee had provided and
th e turnovers bega n to build up. The Saints roo k advantage, built thc lead bac k up, and
never loo ked back. Th e game ended with a 20-point win for th e Sai nls.
Overall. Sr. Martins had a relativel y bal anced att ac k with fo ur pb y er~ sco ring in
double fI gures . D ave C lark led the Saints with 16 points in just 14 minurcs of play.
Nick G ibbs, the 6 ' 10 center, was right behind C lark with 15 points on 7- 10 shooting,
and also contributed 5 rebounds, 2 of which were offensive. The oth er two double-di git
scorers for the Saints we re juniors Ga rland Perry (12) and Brandon Harrley (II) ;
both players also had 5 rebounds, As a team the Saints shot 65()i, (3 4-5 2) from the
field for the game .
Point guard Karriem Fielding (Burbank High 5chool- Sacram ent o, C Al wh o had
17 points, 5 rebounds, and 4 steals, led IheG eodu cks, whil e seniors Mike Parker
(Clover Park High School- Tacoma, WA) and Devin Jon es (Bonneville High 5choolOgden, UT) contributed 15 points each, both on 6- 10 shooting. Along with his 15
points, Parker also added 5 blocks,S assists, and 4 steals . The Geoducks struggled
from the free throw line, shooting only 44% (11-25) for the game, and shot a mere
39% 01-28) from the field in the second half. along with a disappointing 1Hl, from
the three-poinr line 0-8) .
.
.
"It's only one loss," said Coach Barbee, "it's how we rebound from the loss, and what
we can learn from the mistakes we made throughout the game that maners. We played
hard, and we never gave up." After the game, Sr. Marrin's Assistant Coach Bob Niehl
stated, "Last year Evergreen drilled us, and we beat them pretty good this year. A win like
this is a big confidence builder for our team."
A confidence builder for the Saints, a game to learn from for the Geoducks, and
Evergreen will have plenty of time to prepare for their next opponent. The Geoducks
travel to Kallamath Falls, Oregon, for the pre-season Cascade Conference Tournament on
November 21. and open that evening against Northwest College.

Sports Information Director

St. Martin's guard Julia Eisentrout
scores 21 in victory over Evergreen.
The record is still intact. Never was
it in danger of falling. For the sixth
consecutive year, since the founding
of the women's basketball program
at Evergreen State College (0-3) , St.
Martin's (0-0) has shown they are the
dominant four-year women's basketball
program in Olympia, winning 82-31.
In essence the game was over in the first
ten points. Senior Courtney Brandon
(Pomeroy, Waf Pomeroy HS.), having
just completed the volleyball season
five days earlier, scored Evergreen's
first two-points on a tip-back rebound.
Unfortunately the Saints already had a
ten-point lead. The Geoducks scored
again when St Martin's reached 20
points.
.
"When you lose, you realize you need
to work a little more," said Evergreen
head coach Monica Heuer. "This game
was a good reality check for us. "
Although Sr. Martin's had a significant size advantage, Evergreen woes
began in the shooting department. Like
their first two games, the Geoducks
got good looks at the basket but were
unable to get the ball to go through the
net. In the first 20 minutes only three
of twenty-seven field goals registered for
points, a dismal II %.
In the second half shooting improved
t,o 21 %, not high enough to win a
basketball game.
The dominate offensive force of the
night was Saints guard Julia Eisentrout.
She lead all scorers with 21 points.
Lisa Bocook and Stephanie Colbo; each
contributed 10 additional points.
Point guard Alicia Ridclle (Portland,
OR) was the only Geoduck in double
figures, with 16 points.
Evergreen will be in uniform a week
from now (Nov 22-23), as they travel
to Ellensburg, Wa, for the four team
Central Washington Tournament.

The first annu al Seattle Juggling and
Footbag Festival was a huge success. This
event fearured exuemely talented jugglers
and footbag players from all over the west

of November 15 , 16, and 17 at HEC-ED

the height of the weekend could be seen
di splaying their talents and gawking in
awe at the taieJus of others. These talents
included : juggling thrt'e to seven ball s,

Wanna see your name in .prim? Or, better, would you like to see a comic of your creation in print,
with your name in the vicinity~ Well, the CP] comics page can help. Just try to keep in mind:
<.. V ,'1" tJ\ ISS i 0 ~
All submissions must be in the CP] office by Monday at 3:00. Comics should be 10 inches wide
J
V
by 5 1/2 inches tall, or legible when shrunk to this size. If your story needs a hal f page or more
~U\ ~ L~tJ!. to be told, go ahead. (Math factoid: Bigger comics are funnier than smaller comics. They are I
But try to keep them no taller than 5 1/2 inches unless necessary. A small suggestion as well: make
your comics wide, wirh dark lines and clear rext. They copy well. T har is enough said .
