It is now illegal to sell class notes on the Web without a professor's permission. A new law aimed at curbing the online sale of lecture notes is good news for professors who complain that these notes violate personal copyright privileges. Gov. Gray Davis approved Assembly Bill 1773 on Sept. 22. which prohibits businesses from using professors' lecture notes without their consent for the purpose of making profit. Violators will be punished arid repeat offenders may be cited up to $25,000. ELECTION ~. The law applies to all 23 California State University campuses. The University of California system and private schools are not required to adopt the law because those systems have constitutional separations that stop legislation from being mandated. "This is an im ~t beginnin ," said James California Fa~ty Association officer, and San Diego State University sociology professor. "It's a complicated business.

The Conne.cticut senator was on an overnight fund-raising visit to San Diego. Running a little late, he arrived at High Tech High School, located at the former Naval Training Center in Point Lorna, just in time to watch running-mate Vice President Al Gore at the debate. Aside from praising Gore during the debate, Lieberman talked about the democratic agenda. He said the democratic plan would help local schools hire one million new primary and secondary school teachers in the next decade to achieve a national average of 18 students per classroom. Lieberman also talked about global warming and the need for more federal University Police are investigating an incident in which a man exposed himself and masturbated in front of a CAMPUS female student Oct. 8 in Love Library. Police said the student was studying alone on the fifth floor when she looked up CRIME and saw a man standing two book rows away masturbating. When she noticed the man, he partially covered himself behind a book rack. Police said the woman was shocked, but got up to look for help. She found two students nearby and asked them to call the police. One of the students used a cellular phone to call University Police. The suspect then ran off. Police said that when they arrived at the library's entrance, they saw a man who fit the description leaving the library.

I asked myself why people were dying. I wrote a lot of things in that column that have been clearly answered by actions which have taken place since the event. In case you need a reminder,l had written in my prior column that I felt Ariel Sharon going to the Temple Mount, one of the holiest sights to the Palestinian people, was a calculated event which instigated the deep-rooted hatred among the Palestinians and Israelis to resurface. I still agree that his actions were disrespectful to the Palestinian people, but I want to make clear that I in no way agree with the way the Palestinian people are handling this anger. Nothing is justifiable in the death of innocent people. There is no reason for them to be murdering Israeli soldiers or beating them in the street. There is no legitimate reason for them to continue stoning innocent bystanders or burning the dead in mass rallies. The Palestinians say they are doing this because the Israeli army is using excessive force against them, but do they leave them any choice? If they choose to attack the Israeli people, then the Israeli people have every right to protect themselves. They leave them no other choice. As I see it, the Palestinian people have the power to end this. They can stop the violence and in return the Israeli government will have no reason to use force against them. Ehud Barak, Israel's prime minister, has given them the chance to end it all, yet they still resort to harming and killing the Israeli people. Why is there bloodshed, as I asked before? Because they want it. They are using Sharon's idiotic move to get what they have wanted all along. If they didn't want to fight, it could all end right now, but recent events, from the bombing of an American navy vessel to the murder of the two Israeli soldiers, show otherwise. The way they have handled this is inexcusable! They are bringing death not only the Israeli soldiers, but to their own people. I suppose these are commodities that they are willing to jeopardize. I still want peace. I still want all of this fighting to end. I still don't understand why they are allowing all of these people to die when only a few weeks ago the peace talks were making progress. Perhaps this is a calculated move by Arafat? Perhaps he has used Sharon's horrendous tactic as a tactic of his own. Just as I cannot condone Sharon, I cannot condone any of the events following. Sadly, they allow these acts of hate to continue to spread throughout the country. As things are changing everyday, I can not give a final word on this, but I do hope that when there is one it will not be "war."

EGYPT JORDAN Sinai t---t 30 lilies GRAPHIC BY JEREMY LYNCH Arafat, not Israel, to blame for violence in Middle East In Israel, when it comes to terrorism, the issue is always black and white. While I understand the general principle that nothing is usually black and white, in this case I tend to agree with the Israeli position-because Arab terrorism has made it so. The media like to create the illusion of a more complicated situation than what really exists. But it is not complicated. The situation in the Middle East is about terrorism, plain and simple. Last week, this conflict became red, white and blue. Arab terrorists bombed the USS destroyer Cole while it patrolled off the coast of Yemen. The death of American soldiers killed in Yemen by a terrorist attack has changed the focus of the US media. After the bombing of the Cole, the media reported the incident as Arab terrorism. When terrorism hits home, is directed at Americans, it becomes terrorism. Yet this is exactly what Israel has been facing for years - Arab terrorism. The American people are not stupid. They should realize that this is all about media spin. The American media can choose to report the violence in Israel as a struggle for dignity by the Arab people or it can choose to level with its audience and tell the real story. The bloodshed in Israel is due to the violence perpetrated by Palestinian terrorists under the leadership of Vasser Arafat, who can only be described as a terrorist thug. This most recent conflict stems from the Camp David talks earlier this year. Arafat backed out after Barak, according to President Clinton, made unprecedented compromises in the interest of peace. If peace, and not terrorism, was Arafat's goal, he should have jumped at the opportunity for such gains. Arafat's negative reaction to Barak's compromises surprised many people. After all, this man had won the Nobel Peace Prize. It wasn't surprising to me. I never understood why a man responsible for countless terrorist attacks against REED AlBERGOTTI civilian Israeli men, women and children would be given a peace prize. Israel didn't come into existence because the Jews in Europe suddenly wanted to leave their homes and go to an undeveloped desert in Palestine. Jews came to what is now Israel because they wanted peace. They had survived the Holocaust and did not want more violence and death. The violence and death in Israel is senseless. Arafat could end it if he chose to. Has Barak really used excessive force against the Palestinians? Innocent Israeli citizens have been slaughtered. If the lives of American soldiers, let alone American civilian men, women and children were threatened on a daily basis, America would rightfully do whatever it takes to eliminate the threat. The actions of Israeli soldiers are actions of self-defense against the countless acts of terrorism over the years, epitomized recently by the brutal torture and murder of two Israeli soldiers and the bombing of innocent school children. When a real and lasting effort is made toward peace, then we can hand out prizes. It is ludicrous to give a Noble Peace Prize toa terrorist. Let's end the ridiculous media spin and caU this conflict what it is, self-defense against terrorist attacks. -Reed Albergotti is a journalism junior.

Because The Daily Aztec cannot devote itself to covering relevant national and world news, i've been persuaded to dedicate some time to these numerous and important issues. We start on the home front where America's leader into the 21st Century will be elected this coming November. Two of the three presidential debates are in the books. They were informative but also bland. Sure, issues such as foreign policy, capital punishment and guns were touched on - but seeing as how both candidates agreed on all of the issues mentioned above, it makes me question the whole debate part of their little get-together. I was not the only one who thought these debates were quite bland. In a scientific poll conducted by The Nation magazine regarding the discussion of major current political issues in the United States by the two main party candidates, an overwhelming majority of Americans said they were upset with the candidate's nonchalant treatment of such issues. Of those polled, 91 percent said they had concern for Americans without healthcare, 74 percent showed concern for the gap between the rich and the poor and 81 percent said they would support an increase in the minimum wage. Even more impressive - 83 percent of voters said they believe the growth of international trade should be moderated by goals such as human rights, the environment and the protection of laborers. world's police department, has also been affected by this feud. As if this weren't enough, the U.S. Destroyer USS Cole was struck early last week by a suicide bomber in a boat that crashed with the ship.

We should not be celebrating Columbus Day This past Columbus Day brought me back to my childhood. Vista Grande school, sitting in my third grade history lesson, hearing nothing but praise for our hero, the man who discovered America, Mr. Christopher Columbus. "Now remember," the teacher would say in her cutesy highpitched voice, "Columbus sailed the ocean blue in fourteen-hundred and ninety-two." Wouldn't life be wonderful if that little rhyme was all there was to Columbus? Reality sinks in. Mrs. Tredenick, my feminist fifth grade teacher, began to put other thoughts in my head. "Well, Columbus wasn't really here first. There were people like Leif Erikson who came before him," she said. But since we were still little children, we went back to the thought process that Columbus did eventually arrive in America to find spices and wealth, and so came the tradition we call Thanksgiving. JACKIE FlEISHON OK - so a little more truth was revealed, but our blissful ignorance still allowed us to enjoy a Monday off in October, and the wonderful Thanksgiving myth. That is until our high school American History class began. This is where we began to touch on the truth. "1 know how much you all love to live in your perfect world where all our American heroes are truly wonderfu\''' our teacher said, "but Lincoln was a slave holder, Ben Franklin was a womanizer, and oh, did I mention that Columbus wasn't really nice to Native Americans when he got here?" This is the point when you gasp out of outrage and run home to tell your parents "you will never believe what I learned in school today." Enraged for the evening, you vow you will never celebrate this holiday again, but time goes by, you conveniently forget the horrific details when that everappreciated day off from school comes around and your longawaited turkey is on the table. That is until, you get to college. For me, it was Julie Sullivan's political science class that I took my freshman year. We read a history book titled "We the People," an account of true American history. Now, I came into this knowing my American heroes were not the heroes I thought they were, but 1 never imagined the brutality I was about to read. Columbus was a person who kept native people as slaves, raped them, beat them and exploited them to his advantage. Sounds like the American dream - slavery, exploitation of workers and good old America taking all the credit. It's all too familiar. So, instead of fussing over Monty as our mascot, maybe we should be paying a little mQre attention to our beloved American heroes. According to The Daily Breeze, there were 140 Hispanic and American Indian people who stood in protest at this year's Columbus Day parade in Denver. They preached about him being a slave trader who committed genocide against their ancestors. They poured fake blood across the parade's path. The police gave them the option to protest, but as soon as there was one small demonstration of their feelings of disgust, people were given the choice to be arrested or leave. This hardly seems fair. So what, it's OK for protesters like pro-lifers to throw fake blood and harass doctors, but it's not OK for these peaceful demonstrators to throw fake blood on the ground? We arrest them, but let the celebration of the death and exploitation of their ancestors go on. It seems as if our American values are a little off here, doesn't it? It makes the ridiculous Monty struggle look a little insignificant in comparison. While we are fighting over keeping a symbol like Monty as part of our school pride, there are people fighting to change history. Just something to think about. -Jackie Fleishon is an English jllnior.

FOR THE RECORD Two Breedloves make for one big confusion On Tuesday, Oct. 3, The Daily Aztec ran a letter to the editor titled, "Dr. Laura right; homosexuality wrong." The letter was written by San Diego State University student Becky Breedlove. We should have ide,ntified her as such. There i~ a lecturer on campus by the . same name: Becky Breedlove. Some peo- pIe thought the letter was written by her. The Aztec regrets the confusion. To avoid similar situations in the future, The Aztec is fine-tuning its Letters to the Editor policy.

Thank you for brightening my day. Oh, and next time you gripe about "blacks" (with a lowercase "b"), try to refrain from speaking of "whites" (with a lowercase "w"). Such hypocrisy basically completely discredits your case. -Dusty Schaller computer science freshman Editor's note: So, that's what common sense looks like. Thank you. However, the only answer to the debate is to simply refer to everyone as "human" with a lower case I wasn't quite sure what you meant by the word "arbitrary" when you described religious morality, so I looked it up in the dictionary. The word arbitrary is defined as determined by chance, whim or impulse. I would hard\.y think arbitrary would be the best word to describe christianity and the Holy Bible. I am Christian, but religious arguments never get you anywhere, so I'm going to attempt to put my beliefs aside for the sake of argument. "Hey Jason, even though you piss me off in your columns, I like them the most." uh." • -Joe Zarro, undeclared freshman Columnist receives an IF' This letter is in response to Feather Ives' column, "Human race should unite to eliminate Monty" (Oct. 11). It's very simple. Ignorance is bliss, Feather. For crying out loud - for the last time - Aztec is not a derogatory word! So your aimless column which went from Squaw to Zulu to animal names was totally off base. You are correct; those names are derogatory. As an American Indian (San Pascual Band in North San Diego county) and a SDSU graduate myself, putting the Aztec name on par with these derogatory names is just simply too much. It's embarrassing. It gives a new meaning to "higher" education. If this was such a huge problem for everyone who is pro-change, why did you continue to fill out your SDSU admission application when it had the name Aztec on it? "You would have received an 'F' for a factual error." -. Justin Quis Quls, SDSU Class of 1997 When I went to school from 1994 to 1997, this was never brought up and I worked for The Daily Aztec for three semesters. Surely I would have seen at least one lame opinion column during my tenure. On the other hand, I'm impressed that you did some research on the meaning of squaw. However, as a former Aztec sports edi tor (Spring 1997), I wondered aloud why you didn't go to the sports desk to get your facts straight. Stanford's nickname is Cardinal, as in the color, not Cardinals, as in the bird. I always thought that anybody who was fortunate enough to get a byline should have to take Professor Spevak's 200-level journalism course. You would have received an 'F' for a factual error. Oh yea, incidentally, Stanford's m.ascot consists of some moron runnmg around in a tree outfit. I mean, we shouldn't demean trees either, right? After all, ~on't we kill enough of them? Do we now have to mock them as well? When will the madness end? -Justin Quis Quis SDSU Class of 1997 Editor's note: Yeah, when will the mad- ness end? Madness being the 500 letters a day we receive regarding the mascot issue. Maybe we should concede and be, if not a tree, a shrub or a weed. I would settle for the SDSU Crab Grasses if everyone would shut-up tomorrow. Striking nenes a good thing This letter is in response to Jason Williams' column, "Inquisjtion 2000: Religion vs. cloning, stem cell research" (Oct. 12). . Whether designed by man or God, whether God exists because he created us or we created him, Christianity is a masterfully crafted system of beliefs. Whether Jesus was the son of God, or an imposter, he was a very smart man who changed the world for the best.. The Bible is an incredible book that adjusts to the times without its meaning getting too warped. The morality taught in the Bible, mainly that taught by Jesus in the flesh; is anything but arbitrary. Great minds have believed in Christianity, and great minds (divine minds) have shaped its morals and beliefs. Arbitrary is not the word. Yes, I have studied the Bible. In depth? No, but I am still learning: I would ·not consider myself an authOrIty on the Bible; however, I do not believe it is the essence of God. I believe God will grant us the wisdom he does for a reason, and as we must evolve, he will also evolve us and the scripture that guides us. I say go for the cloning anyways. It's far from creating life. It's just copying it. Anybody can make a photocopy of the Last Judgement, but the vision and the execution must come from a master (God). It takes more to create life from clay. Keep that in mind. We are not God now that we can clone. I do think you shouldn't blindly follow the pope. It's naive to think he's the ultimate authority. The Catholic church is notorious for interpreting scripture for its benefit. It comes down to reading the scripture they are pointing to that denies this, researching the passage and interpreting it for yourself in it's context. You would be surprised at how much of the English Bible of today is not in some of the more repable Greek manuscripts (which are very reliable). Hey Jason, even though you piss me off in your columns, I like them the most. Keep writing - the other writers don't strike the nerves you do. Striking up nerves is good, because it brings things to our attention. Encourage the other writers to write about things other than licking butt crack (recall Jackie Fleishon's column, "How many licks does it take?," Sept. 26). -Joe Zarro undeclared freshman Editor's note: Sometimes Jason pisses us off too, loe. Columnist misleads America This letter is in response to the column, "Columnist learns things from the debates," by Benjamin Abel, printed on Oct. 9. Please get your facts straight. You are misleading the people of America when you say that, "Ralph Nader was p~e sen ted a ticket [to the presidential debates] but chose not to attend." In fact, what really happened was Ralph Nader did have a ticket and he did try to get inside but he was barred at the door by three uniformed police officers. He was told his presence was not want- ed. The truth is, Ralph Nader was excluded not because he was a threat or because he would cause disruptionshe was excluded on political grounds. The ticket Ralph Nader had wasn't even for the actual room where "Gush" and "Bore" were in like you implied in your column. The ticket Nader had was for a televised room that was separate from the presidential debate auditorium. What a travesty it is for the American people to be denied the right to hear from candidates that do not belong to the Democratic or the Republican parties. It makes sense considering the Commission on Presidential Debatesa private organization - is sponsored by these same Democrats and Republicans and by corporations who buy votes err ... I mean give money to causes they "support." The American people have a right to hear what Ralph Nader has to say. -Priscila Cavalheiro psychology sophomore Structures place students in danger Every day, I have to cross through Parking Structure IV to get from my house that's behind ChapuItepec, to my classes that are in West Campus.

In defending his Mandela vote, Cheney invokes "communism." Mandela communist? Hardly then or now. Why does Cheney continue denigrating Nelson Mandela? Because Nelson Mandela is black! Cheney's stance reassures and secures the votes of the bigots and racists of the extreme right. Cheney creates a buffer between the extreme right and Bush. Thus, Bush frees himself to appeal to tiscally conservative white middle class voters who otherwise will not tolerate bigotry. With Cheney, Bush gets the vote of the extreme right and finesses the vote of otherwise sensible, kind conservatives. The vote of both groups is essential to his campaign success. Perhaps the effect of this plan is what Bush means when he talks about "Soft Bigotry!" Except, in whose cynicallexicon is bigotry ever "Soft?" The bigotry of the Republican party is as masterfully pernicious and present today as it was in 1988 when Bush-the-father invoked Willie Horton.

And it's a damn good one too. Those of you who occasionally pick up a newspaper know this. However, those of you with little or no contact with the outside world probably still think of the Gamecocks as a bad team. Well, not anymore. The biggest reason? Lou. Holtz.Aiter'taking over the-reins of a pathetic program last season, the man has led South Carolina to the Promised Land. After Saturday's win over conference foe Arkansas, the 'Cocks are sitting at 6-1 and are ranked No. 18 by the AP To me, that's unbelievable. To see how far South Carolina has come in one year is too sappy for Hollywood. Just give Holtz his Coach of the Universe award right now. How bad was South Carolina before this season? As Bill Walton would say: Hooooorrrrrible! Last year, the 'Cocks scored only five touchdowns in their first 10 games. Prior to this season, South Carolina had lost 21 straight contests, last tasting victory two seasons prior against (interestingly enough) Ball State. The 'Cocks also had lost 18 straight conference games and 13 consecutive on the road. Because their team was inept for so long, it's no wonder why South Carolina's fans were chomping at the bit once it was assured that the 'Cocks would break their losing streak in this season's opener. In fact, the natives were so restless, South Carolina coaches had to help security remove the fans from the field after they stoaned it with 36 seconds remaining in the Gamecocks' 31-0 pasting of New Mexico State. Ittcidentally, once the waning seconds ticked away from that game, the scene again was absolute pandemonium.

Now, it looks like it may not have any. It had won three of four games and already tied its win total of four the previous year. It was "playing collectively," as freshman Carlos Menjivar said. It was getting the balanced scoring attack. But all of a sudden the Aztecs find themselves in the midst of a four-game losing streak, their longest of the season. During that span they have scored just four times - which is lower than their season average of 1.5 per game. In addition, all four games, two of them in conference, have been lost in the waning moments. The four opponents were Drury, Louisville, CSU Fullerton and Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. SDSU lost in the 88th, 84th, 70th and 92nd minutes, respectively. "It's been disappointing," said forward Mike Klotovich. "We're always there, but in the end we're just not getting over that hump. "The little extra just isn't there." - Klotovich on SDSU's chances of competing better in conference Said sophomore Ryan Ivkovich: "We're doing everything right. We're just not coming through in crunch time and coming up with the wins." The Aztecs are also going into each game with a small number of upperclassmen as their starters. Seniors Ralph Dartt, Matt Williams and Brett Lasby are the only upperclassmen to start at least nine of SDSU's 13 games this year. So, essentially, the Aztecs are starting eight underclassmen each game. "We're still a young team," Ivkovich said. "But we're ready to take it on. We can play with the best, we just need to tighten it up." SDSU remains on the road this week as it' plays conference foes CSU Northridge Friday and UCSB Sunday. The Aztecs have already played CSUN this season and won 2-1 at the SDSU Sports Deck. WOMEN'S r MPSF Standings 1. CSU Fullerton 2. UNL V 3. New Mexico' ~: 5~ ~,~", \,i~f~.;.

CSU N'6rthridge 0-3 By BRUCE BOURQUIN Staff Wrller When a team finishes second and third in back-to-back tournaments, it's for real. When a team like San Diego State wins its first title in three tries, it becomes a threat to look out for in the collegiate golf world. Jo Clingan won the Heather Fall Memorial tournament with a four-under par 140, and freshman Sandy Kim was tied for third with a six-over 150. It was the first win for the team since 1998, when it won the SDSU Fall Classic. "We felt really good winning thY> thing," Kim said. "I was able to contribute to our team winning, which felt great." The Aztecs sealed up first place at the Heather Fall Memorial, overcoming a sixstroke comeback by Colorado to win by three strokes. SDSU shot a tournamentbest 299 in the first round last Tuesday for the victory. Mayumi Motoyama and Erin Kerr were the other top finishers for Colorado, finishing second and tied for third, respectively. "We had a big lead toward the end," said head coach Diana Falar. "If we didn't lead much, they would've caught us. We had a discussion for a good start, and it paid off." It paid off because the Aztecs never trailed in the tournament. The team led after the first round and Falar said her team hnproved its mental sharpness. "We had a mental alertness with a better start," Falar said. "In a 36-hole tournament, we couldn't fall behind and expect to win." Team captain Jo Clingan shot a 140, leading all individual scorers. Clingan won her first individual tiUe this fall. She said great iron play and solid all-around play contributed most to victory. Clingan's first-round 69 shattered the course record at Broomfield and also ... 4-9 4-9 Notes • Central mid fielder Menjivar has played in all 13 games this season and is averaging just more than a shot per game. In contrast, the Aztecs other starting central mid fielder, Tovar, is averaging nearly three shots per game (33 total shots going into last Friday's contest). • Tovar is also the team leader in points (nine) and assists (five) and tied for the team lead in goals scored (two). However, he's only collected one assist in GOLF Victorious despite injuries An ailing SDSU squad wins Heather Fall Memorial Conf. Overall 3-0-1 9-5-1 2~ 9-4-1 Z-T' . 4-10 broke an Aztecs record for the lowest 18hole score. "Everything's fallen together for me," Clingan said. "My 6 to 9-irons and wedges improved most, plus I didn't miss any fairways or greens." <\ Clingan's performance occurred despite playing with a pinched nerve in her back, suffered in the team's last tournament. Also hindered were Heather Rollo (flu), and Asa Jankler (wrist). "Wedid what we could to get our players over their injuries," Falar said. 'The weather in Colorado cooperated with us, so things went O}( overalL" Sandy Kim helped SDSU win while tying for third, shooting a 150. Sophomore Claire Riley played well in her first tournament, tying teammate Shayna Miyajima for 22nd. Riley is another bright young golfer, who, along with Kim and Miyajima, scored a sweet debut. Kim has been among the most consistent golfers this season, with two top-IS finishes, including this one. "We had a real good feeling we were going to win," Kim said. "I focused better, my irons improved and the greens were in good shape." Kim shot four birdies and chalked up several pars in Colorado. "The course was in awesome shape, and I shot much straighter," Kim said. Another golfer who has done well for the first time this year is Riley. Falar said players like Riley are another reason the program has a bright future. "Claire was an anchor for us," Falar said. "She had a good tournament, and it'll be fun to watch her, Sandy and our other younger golfers grow and play even better this year." Depth has been a key strength for SDSU, as five players have placed in the top 20 in competition at least once. "We've got the talent and potential to become NCAA champions," Clingan said. "It's well within our reach, and we're finally reaping the rewards. "We have at least seven players who can play well enough at any given moment to contendl9r tI:te top five spots. That'll help us iIi the near future." DAYIS UNDQIIISJlIIAIlJ AlIIt WE NEED AWIN ••• NOW: Enrique Tovar (8) goes after the ball in a recent home contest. The Aztecs have yet to record a conference win this season. the last four games.

Seven other players have scored at least one goal this year. • Senior captain Milton Economy is still out of duty with a ADVANTAGE COIIi•• ed from page 9 Tornier and Chidley in Flight C. Again, the only SDSU loss was at the hands of Nagle, who defeated Avendano in her Flight D semifinal match, to advance to the championship against the also-victorious Akerbrant. That set up four championship matches on Sunday, three of which would pit Aztec against Aztec. "It's hard playing your teammates," Becker said. "Obviously, everybody wants to win and we want to play well, but it's hard to get motivated to really compete." In Flight A, Hedberg played very well in defeating Karrento in straight sets, 6-2, 6-1. Beckerled Wells 6-3, 3-2 in the second set of the Flight B final when Becker sprained her right ankle attempting to return a shot. The match was suspended. Tornier continued her excellent play, beating Chidley 6-3, 6-2. Nagle was victorious over Akerbrant in the Flight D championship, winning easily, 6-0, 6-1. Nagle was the only nonSDSU player to beat an Aztec in the tournament. Also in Flight D, Avendano defeated Pyne for third place and Polowski claimed fifth place with a straight-set triumph over USD's Anne Seppi. In doubles, all four SDSU teams advanced to Saturday's semifinals, as did the mixed-school team of Avendano and Seppi. Karrento and Wells teamed up and advanced to the Flight A final, where they faced Hedberg and Tornier; Becker and Polowski earned a spot in the championship match in Flight B, as did Chidley and Akerbrant. The latter duo defeated Avendano and Seppi to reach the final. Tornier continued to impress as she and Hedberg played a spectacular match, topping Karrento and Wells. It marked the second time that day that Hedberg haCl beaten Karrento. The Flight B final was suspended due to Becker's injury. Both suspended matches, the singles and doubles finals, will be comple~ unofficially in practice this week, after Becker returns from the sprain. Mattera expects that to happen by Wednesday. Their success in the off-season tournaments and exhibitions bodes well for the Aztecs. Several players said they have imJ?,roved this fall. 'We're a lot better," Karrento said.

The Aztecs out-hit the Highlanders .365 to .145. Highlanders Update: UCR is currently mired in a 10-match losing streak, having won only six games in that stretch. Sophomore Pam Hartman led the Highlanders with 13 kills in a four-game loss to CSU Northridge Saturday. Hartman saw limited action in the first match against SDSU, scoring only one kill. Freshmen Rosanna Parizek and Allison Donald tallied 12 and 10 kills, respectively, against the Matadors. - Compiled by Joel Sartan MULLINS colli••ed !roll PI&! 9 And now it's happening at South Carolina. What's also impressive about the Gamecocks this season is that they've beat quality people. Unlike Kansas State, who I think plays Mexico Polytechnic next week, these Gamecocks are fighters. Their only loss came at the hands of Alabama, who was ranked No.3 by AP at the outset of the season. Additionally, South Carolina has been the only team to beat Georgia and Mississippi State. Both of those teams have spent time this year ranked in the top 15. What's so hilarious about Holtz is that he's the same guy he's always been.a "Let's not put these guys in the Hall of Fame yet," said Holtz to reporters on Saturday.

TEMPO TuESDAY, 11 THE DAILY AZTEC Ocr. 17,2000 Unsung Heroes The San Diego Music Awards recognize local talent and celebrate the music scene BUSY BODIES: Chorus members for the upcoming production of 'Lysistrata' practice their dance routine. By IRENE YADAO Tempo Editor San Diego has spawned a great many talents in recent years - Jewel, Buck-ONine, Blink-182 and Sprung Monkey artists who have broken through anonymity, and solidified a name for themselves on a national level. But for everyone of those who have assimilated into the mainstream there are a handful whose talents go unheralded. The San Diego Music Awards, now in its 10th year, recognizes those unsung heroes, those whose music continually redefines the San Diego music scene, making it more a mecca of a broad catalog of impressive talent. SCUll JEYH£ I DAIlY All£C Are campus directors always fair when it comes to deciding. who is cast? By IRENE YADAO Tempo Editor he Don Powell Theatre is hardly Broadway - there are no extravagant backdrops, no elaborate marquees from which prominent names are announced. But it's a theater nonetheless, and it is here where, year after year, the dreams of San Diego State University theater students are either made or broken, where skills are showcased and tested in numerous stage productions. It is also here where: during the first week of each semester, the general audition is held. Through this process, directors of the main productions, as welLas student film directors and directors of One Act performances, begin casting for their forthcoming season. It seems relatively simple; talent is, after all, something that isn't difficult to spot. But for both the directors and actors involved, 'picking out the cream of the crop is a rather delicate and complex task, one that often results in broken egos and broken dreams. So who makes the cut? How do directors decide who snags the coveted role and who gets tossed back into the bin? And in distinguishing among several potential actors, does talent always take precedence above all? Or does it become, as has happened in Hollywood, a popularity contest? "It's a sore point," said Peter Larlham, a drama professor and director of the department's production of "Lysistrata," which opens Friday. "The reality is our business is a tough one. It's hard for those who don't get the roles they want to not get disillusioned or dismayed. But while they may feel overlooked and angry, you have to try to do what you feel is right for the production." For Professor Michael Harvey, one of the department's three main production directors, doing what is right for the production means taking two things into consideration: talent and compatibility. "The student needs to convince me that he or she has the capability as an actor to convince the audience that they can be that person (they're pertraying)," Harvey said. "U~der that category are vocal skills, physical skills, imagination, creativity and a sense of being able to reach out and encompass the experiences that the character on """"",.",,_' the page seems to suggest." The actor's work ethic is equally important, Harvey said. Is the actor self-disciplined, mature and supportive?

Long an indie favorite, their unique sonic mix has landed them on tours with diverse act~ ranging from Rage Against the Machine to The Get Up Kids. Relationship of Command, the band's major label debut on Grand Royal, showcases the band's eclectic sound that has attracted the adoration of music lovers from all camps. It's hard to put a finger on their sound, which ranges from soft to hard-driven rock, usually in the same songthe musical embodiment of a rabid lap dog. "Invalid Jitter Department" best reveals the manic qualities that make AIDI such a great band and Relationship of Command such a treat, with frantic lyrics interspersed with beautiful vocal harmonies wrapped in a blanket of melodic rock. Other spectacularly schizo tracks like "Sleepwalk Capsules" and "Mannequin Republic" will leave you wanting to scream and cry at the same time. -Kenneth Smith Gomez Jlbandoned S~oppfng Trolley Hotline Liverpool band Gomez treats songs as self-effacing idiosyncrasies for dazzling arrangements. Similar to studiodwelling jam bands The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion and Super Furry Animals, Gomez challenges Britpop's parameters by creating a unique sound. Abandoned Shopping Trolley Hotline is a collection of unreleased ongtime Green Day Fans are in for a big surprise upon first listening to the band's new album, Warning. . The new album marks a distinct change in Green Day's established style. With Warning, the East Bay band made famous on the meri t of short, catchy pop-punk gems has produced an album that is decidedly not punk. The different flavor of the album should come as no surprise to those who have been tracking the band's career for a long time, and the change seems very organic. Warning is a step further in the direction away from their earlier recordings, a journey that started with Insomniac and continued with Nimrod. In fact, if it weren't for Billie Joe Armstrong's distinctive vocals, the casual listener could almost mistake them for a different band than the one that made KerpIunk. To say that Warning is different from Green Day's earlier outings is not to say that it is a bad album, which it certainly isn't. Nor does it indicate that the changes Green Day has undergone are a rejection of their roots, though the band has faced more accusations of being sellouts with each subsequent release. Rather, the changes are organic, and evidence that the band has matured, musically and otherwise, over the years (not surprising L considering the fact that they were teenagers until the release of Dookie). The album is definitely one that demands to be played straight through, and often, as it seems to grow on you with repeated listening. My personal favorite tracks are "Blood, Sex and Booze," with its driving, chunky bass line, and "Misery," which is musically reminiscent of The Doors' "Whiskey Bar," with a bit of flamenco flavor to it. (Told you it wasn't very punk rock.) While most of the tracks would probably seem a little out of place on earlier albums, "Minority" is a nice throw back to Green Day's older material. Perhaps the best track on the album is the lyrical "Church on Sunday" featuring the beautiful refrain "If I promise to go to church on Sunday /will you go out with me on Friday night? / If you live with me, I'll die for you in this compromise," which echoes the sentiments of some of the band's earlier love songs. Though not as catchy as earlier efforts, Warning is a great album, and leaps and bounds above a lot of music coming out today. From the opening chords of the radio-friendly title track to the closing of "Macy's Day Parade," Green Day has a winner in Warning. - Kenneth Smith material and B-sides that continue the experimental landscape of 1998's Bring It On and last year's Liquid Skin. The songs included in Hotline showcase Gomez's taste for delta blues and stoney pop, heard in the layered acoustics of "Flavors," sprawling harmonies of "Bring Your Lovin' Back Here" he Wilson sisters have been ridiculed throughout their career for a number of insignificant things, primarily singer/songwriter Ann's weight gain over the years. It is as if the buxom beauties were expeCted to remain frozen in time, thin and young forever. What many seem to bypass is the fact that they changed the face of rock. Heart, the band the two sisters fronted for three decades, created music that knocked down the preconceptions of what women are supposed to be like, and what women are capable of doing with a guitar. Their sound, which successfully blended acoustic and electric guitars, was brilliantly punctuated by Ann's raging vocals. Heart's Greatest Hits album, which was released in 1997, includes songs from albums dating back to the '70s and '80s. It opens with the spanish- guitar tinged "Crazy On You" from their first album, Dreamboat Annie, which also spawned the psychedelic Top 10 hit "Magic Man." -Marc Cuenca Black Eyed Peas Bridgfng tile Gap Though many can remember being forced to eat black-eyed pea soup as children, this is one pea that has yet to be forced down any throat or ear for this matter. Since their emergence in 1998 with Behind The Front, the Black Eyed Peas are fast becoming a powerhouse in the ever-so shifting world of hip-hop. In fact, though they're certainly not of a new breed (for the likes of De La Soul, Jurassic 5, A Tribe Called Quest and the Roots all share this territory), they bring a refreshing element to .the always fashionable sex-andviolence state of hip-hop. And with their sophomore effort, Bridging The Gap, the Black Eyed Peas, along with the help of some other veritable forces (Macy Gray, Mos Def, Les nashbac:k Favorites T and a soulful live BBC se~sion of "78 Stone Shuffle." On the album's recognizable track, the Phillips Electronics jingle "Getting Better," Gomez swirls a percolating groove and resurrect a Lennon/McCartney classic. To sweeten the deal, the first 50,000 copies of Hotline contain Mqchismo EP, a five-song disc recorded at Peter Gabriel's Realworld studio. Then there are their '80s anthems - the ethereal "These Dreams," sung by Nancy, the angry "If Looks Could Kill" and "Never," from their self-titled 1985 release, Going straight to No.1, it sold more than 5 million copies and earned Heart the first of four Grammy nominations. Another highlight is the inclusion of a bluesy acoustic version of "Straight On," taken from their acoustic live CD, The Road Home. One of their signature songs (arguably one of the greatest songs of all time) "Barracuda" is also taken from a live album, Rock The House Live. The one thing that has remained constant throughout the making of each album, as captured on this com. pilation, is their ability to rock. This album will take you back and is a must have for anyone who appreciates good old'rock 'n' Roll. -Angela Carroll . Nubians, Esthero, among others), continue to thrive off a cultural awareness and musical diversity less available with their more heavyweight-type peers. As with Behind the Front, in Bridging the Gap, BEP employ elements of soul, funk, latin and acid jazz. Standout tracks include "Cali to New York" and "On My Own." - Lisa Yadao THE DAILY TEMPO Azrnc TUESDAY, Ocr. 17,2000 13 BOOK REVIEW Paine through words [:OQUf:n:. 1;()f1lJ(,JtI i\fHJ !\fllnl)tmlP;\ :::An FA",~j~' h"!JtrthHHv.tnQ." :(!J CHnO~'Ct Authors latest release makes social commentary By SAIDY URIBE Tempo Writer Waiting can be a drag. The kind of waiting that finds you in line a t the Department of Motor Vehicles. Or on the phone with the insurance company. Or waiting to be rescued at sea, looking for that life raft, your life flashing before your eyes. Which is exactly what happens to the character of Monsieur Eliot in Tom Paine's "Scar Vegas," a collection of 10 enthralling and compelling short stories. The story of Monsieur Eliot is one of a transformation from a man who has everything· to one who suddenly finds himself lost at sea without his cushy luxuries. "Monsieur Eliot," like many of the other stories in "Scar Vegas," illustrates Paine's penchant for pushing the envelope of political and social commentary. Paine discusses issues SOCiety often brushes under the table, such as homosexuality, cross-dressing and the elitist mindset of America's privileged and wealthy. In "General Markman's Last Stand," Paine challenges the conventions of masculinity, centering in on a general in the U.s. Marine Corps-a burly man whois of the captivating type of ruggedness that commands attention - who happens to have a fetish for women's lingerie. (In fact, he parades around his office in matching bra and panty sets.) Paine paints pictures clearly with words, oftentimes utilizing Kafkaesque undertones and an eroticism that transforms the text intoa film noirof the mind. His writing is a conductor for the nervous system, bringing the five senses to activity and eventually evoking a response. Paine does so by provoking images of a world where the unexpected is the norm and nothing is as it appears. He makes the reader realize truth is a matter of perception, tha t an image tha t has been accepted can be shattered when another takes precedence. "Scar Vegas" makes for a wonderful addition to any coffee table collection. It could even be the focal point of some wine drinking evenings. Challenge your paradigm and see how Paine makes you feel.

"Every 'once in a while you run into someone who seems to be extraordinarily talented," Harvey said, "but there's something that makes you shy away from them. Either they do not relate well, don't communicate well or there's something that suggests bad work habits." Sometimes, they're cast anyway. . And sometimes, Harvey said, "you wish you hadn't (cast them}." . Both Harvey and Larlham said in choosing between a brand new actor and one who has been here for a number of years, familiarity can sometimes playa role. "If an actor finds himself up against an actor who has had a lot of experience and a lot of training," Harvey said, "the probability is that the one who has mo~e experience is going to. show ~elr skills better. All thmgs bemg equal, we will try to get the better person the part. "That's not to say people are not shutout." Ultimately, there's got to be a something that sets you apart. "Acting is an elusive thing," Larlham said, '1t is intuitive and it comes as a package - You either have it· or you don't. And as painful as it can be, you must be realistic about where you stand." Still, it is in not taking that risk with potential talents that a.nother risk arises - that of continually casting the same faces and excluding actors who may not ~d other valid avenues through which they can stretch their muscles. "Nobody wants to cast a fresh face," said theater senior Jessie Coon. "I can understand that. Directors may not be sure what they're like, whether they'll bail out on them or not show up for rehearsals. It's happened before. "So I do see the logic in sometimes casting the same people over and over again. I also think it's because when they see potential in people, when they see that they:re going somewhere and they re good, they want to give them as much practice as possible." But for those who. aren't making the cut and who aren't given the chances, it can admittedly be discouraging. "I was one of those people at one point," said Coon, who plays a chorus members in "Lysistrata." "So I can understand. But you just CLASSlflEDS toatiliM fro. page 14 www.DunDeal.net $15-$125 per survey! Earn Cash on the Internet by giving your opinion on surveysl have to wait it out, and you have to prove yourself. It's kind of the only way to do it." Coon suggests creating a rapport with the directors. '1t takes time," she said, '1 used to think, 'Oh, I'm going to impress them with my first general audition,' but that's not really the way it is. 'They need to see what you're like." Other students aren't as understanding as Coon, however. 'The people who are cast are very talented," said theater senior Kelly Andrews, who is currently working on costuming for "Lysistrata." "But I also think that there are other people who are just as talented, but who maybe don't know the directors on a personal level. "In that case, the director will go with the actor they know, even though they may not have anything against this other actor or have a reason to believe they wouldn't have a good work ethic. "I know a lot of people who stopped auditioning because they kind of felt it had ruined their morale regarding their profes. " slons. Larlham said that while there may appear .to be favoritism, it's one thing they try to fight against. He said he tries to cast as diversely as possible and to seek out plays and vehicles that allow them to do this. "Lysistrata," for example, allowed Larlham to cast 35 actors, most of whom have never been in a large-scale production. Last season's 'The Skriker" called for an equally large cast. "It's an elemental process," Harvey said. "By doing this, actors will get better so that by the next audition, they will be able to compete effectively with other people. . We try to give a lot of people the opportunity to develop those skills." In addition to choosing main productions that would require large casts, Harvey said tt:'ey provide several layers of activity for actors to do in order to become better for the next audition. Among other things, there are a series of one act productions, there are scenes which are performed specifically for directing ~lasses and there are portfolio presentations. "One of the nice things is that virtually everything students do is seen by faculty," Harvey sai.d. "The simplest way to become VISible as far as the faculty is concerned is to participate in the general auditions." Wings N TItings - Cashier needed.
