Parking problems go unresolved

Il is 9:15 a.m. on a Tuesday morning. Students zoom into the Parsons
Union Building (PUB) parking lot in high hopes of finding a spot before a
9:30 class.
Good luck. Parking here on campus is one of the biggest free for all most
have ever experienced, other than a general admission concert.
Most students, especially those that arrive at the last minute, are scrounging to find a space to park their car, even playing a game with other wannabe parkers, by trying to get that last space before someone else does.
How often does this scenario happen? Everyday, here at Lock Haven

University.
Who doesn't walk around any of the parking lots, including faculty and
staff lots, and see at least five or more cars with little orange tickets stuck to
their windshields?
A total of $19,840 was made in parking decal revenue (this is from students buying parking decals) in 1998. Also in 1998, $47,371 was made in
parking ticket revenue, an increase from 1997 ($40,608), and actually it was
the highest it has ever been in the 1990s.
The students who payed the most tickets last semester were, a male who
had 66 tickets and a female who had over 30.
How can students avoid this huge amount of revenue being made off of

them?
Richard Hepner, director ofLaw Enforcement, admitted that the University does not have spaces on campus for everyone who drives to park.
"Students think that when they buy a decal (green) they will automatically have a space. All it is, is a privilege to hunt for a space."
Another problem, he said, was that students don't hunt for a space in the
allotted parking lot for their decal but instead look for any space, whether it
be in the faculty and staff parking lot or in the purple parking lot. "Wherever they can get in, that is where they will park."

Some students, especially commuters, he said, are their own worst enemies. "Some live within two blocks of campus and insist on driving to
school." The lots never close at night so many in town commuter students
keep their cars there all the time.

Two University professors were honored by receiving the Teaching
Learning Peers' Choice Teaching Excellence Award.
These professors were given these awards on the basis of evaluations by
their peers.
Dr. Cheryl Newburg, associate professor of psychology, received an
award for enthusiastic teaching and dedicated mentoring to future psychologists, counsel to advisees and long hours of supervising internships.
She has taught many future psychologists the importance of psychology
and therapy skills. Her students are also taught the empirical and theoretical backgrounds they need to become professionals or to attend graduate
school.
She is known for her interactive, stimulating classroom discussions and
her support of psychology clubs.
Dr. Zakir Hossain, an associate professor of sociology and anthropology,
received the award for dynamic classroom instruction, innovative contributions to service learning and distance education and for his generosity to
colleagues and students.
He is known for involving his students in community issues, such as assessing the impact of the abandonment of downtown areas in Pennsylvania
communities, and for the study of credit cards and students. He is also active in the field of research and publication.
Hossain uses learning methods such as role playing, case studies, team
teaching and team learning.
He is also active in the University's international programs, where nations such as Bangladesh, Thailand and the Philippines receive services.
The award recipients receive $500 to be spent by the faculty on teaching
related materials or conferences. Faculty members are nominated by their
peers or department chairs and are selected by a panel of faculty after a rig-

Harvard professor to lecture at University

Weather

Book discussions to be held in preparation for event

LOCK HAVEN - Harvard professor of philosophy and
Afro-American Studies, Anthony Appiah, will lecture on
"Reading Race and Gender in Alice Walker's Color Purpie and Toni Morrison's Beloved" at 3 p.m. Thursday,
March 25, at the University's Price Auditorium. At 7
p.m., he will read from his memoir, In My Father's
House, in Ulmer Planetarium.
The lecture is part of Professor Harriet Masembe's
annual Major Black Writers lecture series, sponsored in
part by a grant from the State System of Higher Education (SSHE) Office of Social Equity.

In preparation for Appiah's arrival, Stevenson Library will host a series of book discussions on Color
Purple and Beloved. The talks will be lead by Virginia
Martin.
She will discuss Color Purple at noon Monday, Feb.
15 and 22, and Beloved at noon Monday, March 1 and
15, in the library's Teaching-Learning Center.
The events are free and open to the public. For more
information on the lecture and the reading, contact
Masembe at x2641, and for more information on the
book discussions, contact Caryn Carr at x2489.

Parking from page 1
This can cause a problem for commuters traveling
distances, for there will be no where for them to park.
The Parking Committee, Hepner added, tossed the
idea around to come up with a way that students must
live a certain distance away from campus to get a decal.
''We haven't figured out where to draw the line and it
Would be an enforcement nightmare," he said. Also,
"some students would figure out a way to beat the sys-

tem."
Once the silk mill is completed, he said, there will be
an additional 292 spaces, which Hepner said will be a
"tremendous help."
He added, "The State System of Higher Education
has approved to raise parking fines on campus up to $25.
This would help out, but I don't think the University is
looking at those figures."
"If we doubled the fine, it would discourage students
to park illegally. Five dollars is not that big of a deal but
$10 may be a discouraging factor."
Last semester 1,323 green parking decals were sold
to students. Ninety-nine purple parking decals were
Sold. Many students wonder why the purple lot is never
filled.
Hepner said that when the purple lot was behind Zimmerli, less faculty bought decals because it is farther
from the main part of campus. Now that it has moved,

.

more faculty have purchased decals.
"We have talked about issuing a couple more for that
(purple) lot, but we are hesitant because there are only
94 spaces available and we wonder if one day 95 people
will show up. When students or faculty pay $30 for a
decal, they are guaranteed a space."
Hepner offers suggestions to commuters who become
very agitated while trying to park.
"If you live close by, within a reasonable walking distance, leave your car at home. Don't even attempt the
aggravation that goes with finding a spot."
He also added, that students should car pool with
roommates or friends.
Another suggestion is to park at Jack Stadium, which
is rarely full. "Most students, though complain about the
walk back and forth," he said.
"Students that live near campus could help by not
leaving their car there all the time. Maybe we should
close the lots after 11 p.m. That would be part of a solution but would create more problems also."
In Law Enforcement's and the University's defense,
Hepner said, "We have to control parking, not generate
revenue. There have to be penalties for people who park
wherever they want. If not, there would be total chaos.
There needs to be rules and regulations."
For the most part, he said, students are very good.

cnce for the first time fifteen years
ago.
Frank, who is also a member of
the cheerleading club and honors
club, displayed her desire to teach
children and the love she has for her
field through her dedication to wanting to teach children how to be fit.
Frank stated that she chose to come
to the University to achieve that goal
because of its closeness to her home
in Mill Hall, allowing her to be at
home with her brother and sister,
ages two and five, who she describes
as "her two best friends."
Best friends came together at the
convention when Wood was scheduled to preside over the presentation
of her former college roommate and
fellow University alumni of the class
of '64, Patricia Smith Ford. Wood
aided in Ford's presentation, "Portfolios: A Practitioner's Insight" by
introducing Ford to the crowd and
monitoring the room as the presentation was in session.
Dr. Brad Black, the chair of the
University's Health and Physical Education Department, received honors
at the convention by accepting the
Professional Honor Award for serving the organization for 20 years.
Black's credentials for the award revolve simply around the dedicated
service that he has provided over the
years to the field of education.
Black, like Wood, also presided
over presentations made at the con-

ference. One of the two programs
presented featured the University's
Dr. Paul Ballet who led a discussion
titled "Assessment of Student Teachers: A Discussion of Current Practices."
Ballet was among five professors
who discussed the topics of current
practices in student teaching. Part of
the discussion was geared toward an

audience of students and cooperative
teachers (those who allow student
teachers to teach in their classroom),
focusing in on how often a professor
should be observing a student
teacher.
Professors generally see students
teach in a cooperative teacher's
classroom three times a semester, but
according to Ballet "many (professors) go out more than that."
Ballet feels that by viewing the
students less frequently, professors
are more likely to catch a student on
a "bad day." Because of that possibility, Ballet said that he and other
instructors have often opted to have
a few extra unannounced observations of the students, visits that he
has termed as "hello visits," where
the student is not graded as if they

abled all those involved to "offer to

Rowedder, along with instructor
Eaton, brought her own ideas to the
program by presenting a strength
training mechanism for teachers.
Rowedder and Eaton set up eight stations of aquatic circuit training that
focused on toning and aerobic exercise. They also presented a learning
device that Rowedder said was "new
to others," involving webbed gloves
that are used in the pool to serve the
purpose of a "better workout" said
Rowedder.

Other University contributors to
the state conference included Dr.
Samuel Nantogmah who received
recognition for his presentation on
the use of hurdling skills. Dr. Cindy
Clark also conducted a workshop on
activity based elementary health education that Black described as "very
successful."
According to those who attended, the 1998 convention proved to be
more successful than past years had
for the University. Wood feels that
this convention held the "best faculty turnout" in comparison to the conferences of the past.
In addition, Eaton stressed how

Waste not want not: Students throw away luge amounts of food

About 880 pounds of food is

According to Jimmy Dcnnehy, a

supervisor, among the estimated 2,(XX) meals a day that are
•served in upstairs Bentley. 20 bags of
Iwastc, each weighing approximately
*22 pounds, are disposed of everyday.
-However, when his figure was questioned. Dennehy quickly doubled the

of bags to 40.
The weight of the waste was not
*
precise, however. Only one
"bag. which appeared to be one of the
-lighter ones, was measured, and
weighed 22 pounds. That number
was then multiplied by the "approximated" number of bags per day.
Nick Zolak. general manager of
Wood Co., the company that provides food services for Bentley, stated that the reason why the waste is

composted is because there is no
place to do it and it would create
more work for someone.
As far as recycling goes, Zolak
said that glass, cardboard, aluminum
and plastics were all recycled. However, Brian Mowen, production manager for the Wood Co., stated, "We
do recycle aluminum and cardboard,
but do not pick out the plastics."
In order to accommodate the huge
amount of waste that is generated
everyday, Bentley has a six-cubicyard dumpster. Every week, approximately 64 cubic yards of garbage
are picked up by L.W. Peters Disposal, located in Lock Haven.
Exactly when and how often the
not

food waste is picked up appears to be
a mystery to many members of the
Bentley management team. Dennehy said that without a doubt the
garbage was picked up everyday, but
Zolak said that the pick up occurred
only every other day. However,
Yvonne Peters, from L.W. Peters,
was asked the same question and her
response was the pick up was twice a

Ridge budget may increase
State System funding

HARRISBURG - Governor Tom Ridge's 1999-2000
spending proposal represents a starting point toward a
new state budget.
State System of Higher Education officials will work
with the governor and the Legislature toward developing
l a final budget that will help meet the needs of System
universities and their more than 95,000 students.
Ridge's proposal would provide for a base appropriation to the State System of $435.5 million, an increase
of $10.6 million or 2.5 percent over the current funding
level. The proposed increase is less than half the amount
requested by the System.
The governor's proposal also would provide an additional $1.5 million for social equity programs designed
to help recruit minority and other under-represented stu-

*

dents and to help them succeed in college. A total of
$216,000 is proposed for the operation of the McKeev-

er Environmental Center.
An additional $10 million would be available to all of
the higher education for technology initiatives and another $6 million for equipment purchases. The System
also would receive an estimated $8.3 million for de-

ferred maintenance through the Keystone Recreation,
Park and Conservation Fund.
The State System's Board of Governors in October
approved a 1999-2000 state appropriation request of
nearly $448.3 million, an increase of $23.5 million, or
about 5.5 percent,

ty Associate professor Richard Blatti never dreamed he
would make such a big splash in the classroom with his
unconventional teaching style. However, his techniques

caught the attention of ABC's Peter Jennings, as well as
local news stations. Realizing his novice conducting

students were not quite interpreting his
instructions to "pull taffy" or pretend
"they were underwater," Blatti decid-

ed to give it a try
literally.
Blatti first took to the pool with his
conducting class when he taught at a
small, out-of-state college. "With water, it's virtually impossible to do it
wrong," said Blatti, associate director
of the symphonic band and associate

like conducting, compared with what they should look
like. Before bathing suits were required for the course,
Blatti said students would comment about their choice of
clothes for the day or their physical appearance when
observing their own videotape. "A number of things happen psychologically when you take your clothes off,"
said Blatti. Now when the students watch their videotapes, they really see themselves. "You see you, and the
essence of the class, which is movement," said Blatti.
Blatti found, through a process of trial and error, that
an Olympic-style pool was not conog&fcL \ ducive to teaching 20 students at varygwtfy | ing heights. The cool water temperaSJ
also gave reason to look for altern/fa turc
natives.
Blatti now uses a heated thers

professor of conducting at Ohio State.
As the students moved their batons
underwater, the resistance allowed
them to gain an immediate feel for the
smooth legato style. Blatti found that
by flicking water droplets off the tips
of their batons, students also could
capture short, crisp staccato motions. "When you get on
the podium (to conduct), there's no place to hide," said
Blatti. "There's no way to learn except to do it."
Blatti initially intended to accomplish only one or
two things, but now he incorporates many more lessons
into the water sessions. "Music defies description," he
said. "Music is where the words leave off." Blatti saic
the purpose of the water-based lessons is to show the student "how it feels compared to how it looks."
Most students are aware of the underwater sessions
before enrolling in the course, but Blatti said he occasionally takes a few by surprise. The syllabus lists
bathing suits as required material for the course. Some
students fear the water, while others have health problems that prevent them from participating. Blatti said he
does not force them to get in the pool, but encourages
them to participate by lying on the ground along the edge
of the water with one arm submerged so they can follow
the lesson.
At the beginning of the course, the students videotape themselves to get an idea of what they actually look

Blatti, now in his 10th year at
OSU, said he could probably teach all
10 weeks in the pool, but because of

jthe hassles that accompany getting in
not practical. "The
student evaluations always come back
positive," said Blatti.
Blatti has directed Jeff Hurt, a senior majoring in
music education, for three years in the symphonic band.
Hurt said he found the water lessons a worthwhile addition to the regular classroom exercises. "He (Blatti) puts
all his effort in everything he does," said Hurt.
In addition to his students, colleagues have been accepting of his unconventional teaching style from the beginning. Blatti has demonstrated his creative teaching
technique at Bowling Green State University, but his
method extends far beyond Ohio's borders. He has traveled to Colorado, Minnesota and Australia showing others the benefits of his creativity. His dedication to teaching has not gone unnoticed.
Blatti was honored with the School of Music Distinguished Teaching Award, and in March of 1998 he was
also inducted into the prestigious American Bandmasters
Association. The organization consists of about 200

Moving off campus is probably
one of the most exciting and interesting times of your college career. It's

also one of the most educating cxperiences you can possibly imagine.
Last year, my friends and I decided to get out of North Hall and find a
house to call our own. We found one
that was perfect, well almost. We
couldn't walk through the front living room because there was so much
stale beer on the floor our feet were
stuck to the cracking imitation parquel floor. (There had been a fraternity living there for the semester.)
When we finally made our way to the

take care of themselves. Many men
who find themselves victims often
question their own manhood and the
reaction friends and family many
have. At our shelter we only house
women and children. This is because most victims (95 percent) arcwomen and to bring a man into the
primary liveing quarters may be very
traumatic for some women. However, we will house men elsewhere in
the community if they arc in need of
shelter for safety reasons.
MYTH: The Center forces people to get a Protection From Abuse
(PFA).
Most people who obtain
PFAs through the Center were talked
into getting the order by the staff.
FALSE. The Center has never
and would never talk someone into
getting a PFA. This would go
against the Center's primary concept
of Empowerment Counseling. Also
know n as Options Counseling, the
idea is to five the client all the options available to them and let the
client make the best possible choice
for themselves. Many times victims
of domestic violence have not been
allowed to make certain decisions
for themselves. The Center wants
their clients to take control of their
own lives. Another reason why this
is important can be illustrated in the
following scenario: Client A comes
to the center to discuss obtaining a
PFA against their abusive partner.
After a staffmember explains what a
PFA is. how it works and how to obtain one, Client A decides that a PA
will keep them safe. Client B also
comes to the Center to discuss obtaining a PFA. Again, the PFA has
been thoroughly explained, but this
time Client B is concerned that a
PFA may incite anger in their partner
and more than likely the partner will
not abide by the PFA. In short, the

PFA in this case may put Client B in
danger. The client may choose not to
get a PFA and opt to safety plan, relocate or come into the shelter. The
bottom line is that every client who
receives services from the center
makes their own decisions. After all.
they know their partner better than
the staff, so the client has a better understanding of what type of reaction
to expect. This gives the client the
power to make choices for themselves.
MYTH: The staff of the Center
hate men. The Center is out to destroy everv marriage in the county.
FALSE: The Staff does not hate
men. The majority of the stal l members are married or are in a relationship. And there is no secret agenda
to break up every marriage in the
county. Our only agenda: to provide
information and options to clients so
that our clients can stay safe and free
from violence.
MYTH: The Center is an ex-

tremely secretive place.

FALSE. Well, this is true to an

MYTH: Domestic violence realextent.

ly isn't a problem in Clinton County.
False: Domestic violence is definitely a problem in Clinton County.
Our statistics for last fiscal year
show that we provided services for
over 1,200 women, children and
men. And a large number of domestic violence victims do not come forward. So these numbers only a
small number of the actual victim-

ization actually occurring. And why
do many victims live with the violence in their homes instead of coming forward?
There is the stigma attached to
being a battered woman. Economic
reasons play a large part. Let's say

that a client has two children and is
in an abusive marriage. This client
wants out of the marriage, however,
he/she may not have access to transportation. Clinton County is extremely rural and has little to offer in
the way of affordable public transportation.. This client has to find a
job that will cover the rent, utilities,
transportation and perhaps child
care. The job market in Clinton
County is diff icult at best. And if the
client has been a stay at home mother for many years or needs to learn
more skills for a job, leaving the
marriage may seem even more overwhelming than staying.
Domestic violence also has long
been labeled as "family problems."
There is a belief that assault within a
relationship is acceptable because it
is the way families have dealt with
problems for generations. Violence
within the family is never accept
able. Many people do not want to
pry into their neighbors business
when they witness family violence.
But what if someone dies as a result
of a "family problem?'' It's a com-

munity problem that has to be addressed.

It's teaching our children

that when you have a problem it's
acceptable to solve the problem with
violence

Usually, finding a topic to write about for this column is relatively easy.
I'll be laying around or eating lunch and I'll see something that inspires me
to write about. This week was an exception though, as I came head to head
with the first case of writer's block that I've ever had.
As the deadline approached. I started to get worried, but instead of getting overzealous about the situation, I took a little break to catch a hockey
game on ESPN.
One of the commentators, who I absolutely despise, started spouting his
mouth about who was playing well in the league and who wasn't playing up
to par.
He called it the "Who's Hot or Not" segment and it instantly reminded
mc of the conversation I had last weekend with a friend of mine, hence destroying my writer's block.
At the time of the conversation, my mood was below average and being
around drunk people wasn't high on my priority list. Nevertheless le&, I

would envy. "You're neat." "You're
spiffy." "Have a peachy valentines."

is that some of the chalky Sweetheart
candies say "WWW.LOVE" or "EMAIL ME" whereas we were limited
to low-tech messages such as "TOO

COOL" or "UR MINE."
Buck Rogers isn't stocked on the
supermarket shelves anymore but
there are Star Wars cards with pictures 0 f Artoo Detoo accompanied by
the romantic, droid pickup line, "I
bet you whistle at all the droids."
And for the truly romantic out in

third-grade land, there are cards with
pictures of Chewbacca that say, "Let
the Wookie win!" and with Princess
Leia that say, "You're my only
hope!"
But in an elementary school
across town, there's a classroom
filled with third graders who still
know that girls are ,made of sugar

that boys are made of lizards and

snails and puppy dog tails. This Friday, they'll go from chair to chair depositing Valentine's Day cards in
their classmates' lovingly decorated
brown paper bags Scotch-taped to
the back of each chair. Some girls
may even catch icky boy germs. And
if all goes well, some unlucky boy
will go running home to his mother

Dear Editor:

Cupid's arrows don't always hit
the happily-ever-after mark. Somelimes "love hurts."
Many times the "hurl" isn't about
broken hearts. It's about broken
bones, broken homes and broken
communities. Permanent emotional
scars and life-threatening injuries are
not about love-they are products of
domestic violence.
This violence occurs within an
intimate relationship, adult or adolescent, and is characterized by blatant
disregard for an individual's rights,
body and health. Make no mistake,
there's nothing romantic about possessiveness, jealousy and control.
A myriad of misconceptions
about domestic violence abound—including stereotypes about who the
victims and their batterers are, which

neighborhoods they live in, and why
the abuse takes place. Domestic violence occurs in every community regardless of age, race, ethnicity, mental or physical ability, sexual orientations, socioeconomic status and religious background.
Victims come from all walks of
life but most are women who suffer
physical, sexual, emotional and economic abuse at the hands of someone
they love and trust. Like their victims, there is no psychological profile of batterers. Generally, they are
not violent in any area of their lives
outside the home.
A 1995 John Hopkins University
School of Medicine survey of 2,000
anonymous patients found that one
of ever three women had experienced
domestic violence as a child or an
adult. A 1995 Gallup survey re-

vealed that 40 percent of the girls interviewed (ages ranging from 14-17)
said they had a friend their own age
who had been abused by a boyfriend.
This epidemic of crime deprives
women—our mothers, daughters, sisters and friends-of their fundamental
right to maintain control over their
own lives. Without appropriate intervention, the abuse increases in frequency and severity over time and,
as a result, can rob us of the people

we care about most.
Newspaper reports throughout
Pennsylvania indicate that one
woman or child dies every three days
in the Commonwealth as the result of
a domestic-violent homicide. While
these reports do not reflect the total
number of deaths resulting from domestic violence in any given year, tonomy, justice and resources they
they do serve as an indication of the desperately need and deserve. So,

Rumor has it that Valentine befriended
his jailer's blind daughter and cured her of

The nighl before, though, Valentine sent the jailer's

Occasionally an artist comes along that reminds us all
rock is not dead. In the
of the Backstreet
and the Spice Girls, Sheryl Crow stands out from the
crowd like a guitar-wielding gem forced to live in a pile
of manure.
This past summer during her stint on the Lilith Fair
tour, Crow showed the music world that she had more
balls than than a driving range.
Crow's 1998 release of The Globe Sessions ushered in
a wave of fresh air that served as confirmation that rock
is certainly not dead. This album is the work of a master
craftsman with its mix of introspective tunes, ballsy
rockers and guitar-pop songs. The album runs the entire
spectrum of feelings from sassy ("It Don't Hurt") to
emotional ("Maybe That's Something") and from powerful ("Members Only") to delicate ("Crash and Burn").
The Globe Sessions is a great rock album in the same
vein as classic Rolling Stones records. This connection
becomes apparent on the second song of this album"There Goes the Neighborhood." The loose, filthy-guitar
riffs conjure images of Keith Richards and the sing-along
chorus that is accompanied by a horn section kick the
mood into high gear. One listen to this jammer and the
notion that rock is dead will begin to fade away.
The first single released form this album- "My Favorite Mistake"- shows her ability to blend a ballsy guitar riff with sing-along choruses resulting in a radiofriendly rocker.
Another tune that exhibits Crow's ability to create a
ripping tune that is friendly to the ears is "Anything but
Down." Her larynx-shredding vocals suit the filthy-gui-

The recording industry is currently in a state of shambles. Many bands that were expected to be the next big
thing just didn't pan out. The record labels are also weary
about allowing an artist time to develop into fruition. Sheryl Crow is an exception to this rule. Her abilities as
both songwriter and musician have preferred her the opportunity to spread her wings artistically.
Crow's combination of talent anil hard work have
earned her respect among her idols from the world of
classic rock. Bob Dylan even penned one of the songs on
this album, "Mississippi." This song was an outtake from
Dylan's album Time out of Mind. "Mississippi" walks
the fine line between rock and country music resulting in
a rootsy masterpiece.
While Crow is influenced heavily from the past, she
manages to create a sound that is completely her own.
The result is a fresh energetic brand ofrock music.
Neil Young sang "Hey, hey, my, my rock and roll will
never die," and Sheryl Crow has proven that, for the
time, being rock is not dead.
Sheryl Crow is a talented tunesmith who can mix intelligent, yet emotional
lyrics with catchy, yet

dirty-guitar riffs. As
long as she can do this
while retaining her own
unique vision of energetic and fresh sounding music, she will
serve as living proof
talent can thrive in the
music industry.
The Globe Sessions

continues to serve as a
refreshing confirmation
that rock is not dead!

The Eagle Eye

To dream a little dream about nothing
Shonda Smith
Eagle Eye Features Editor

sought out to find explanations.
The mind can be subjective or objective,
depending what kind of a state it is in.
When people are awake and the influences
of others are upon them, as well as their entire upbringing, then they act and think in a
objective manner.
It is when the mind is at rest during sleep
that the subjective impressions can be
placed upon you. This is more of a knowledge through senses.
It is said that when you wake up in the
morning, the first thing you are to think
about is what you dreamt about the night
before. From speaking with people who remember dreams frequently, I have found
this to be true. The times that they remember is when they wake up before the alarm
goes off, or when they get to sleep in and almost daydream.
Even if you do remember what you
dreamt about the night before, you may only remember little parts of it. Trying to fit
these pieces together isn't always the easi-

I looked behind me to see if he was still
chasing me and continued to keep running.
I could feel my heart beating faster and
faster. My legs felt like jello and I didn't
know how they managed to support my
body. I just prayed that I would be able to
get away from this person; I longed for a
sense of peace that I hadn't felt in such a
long time.
I kept running. 1 didn'trecognize where
I was but I knew that I needed to get away
from whoever was chasing me. I glanced
behind me and he was gaining on me. I felt
him getting closer and closer.
Then I woke up.
Dreams can be so crazy. Sometimes you
know you are dreaming and you tell yourself that, but it still doesn't manage to lessen

This summer I came across a book titled
10,000 Dreams Interpreted - An Illustrated
Guide to Unlocking the Secrets of Your
Dreamlife, by Gustavus Hindman Miller.
This book takes an analytical approach
to deciphering the meaning behind dreams
and how dreams could foretell upcoming
events in your life. It is a practical explanation to many dreams that seem unexplainable.
Here are a few of the dreams I found in
the book that frequently occur in the minds
of people.

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa.~
Alanis Morissette, with special
guest Garbage, will be appearing
at Penn State University's Bryce
Jordan Center at 8 p.m. on Tuesday Feb. 16.
Three years ago the release of
"Jagged Little Pill" marked the
emergence of Alanis Morissette
as one of the most distinctive and
influential performers of the
decade. On the strength of the
break-out single "You Oughta
Know," the album reached platinum status and the Top 10. Follow-up singles "Hand in My
Pocket," "All I Really Want" and
"Ironic" kept "Jagged Little Pill"
on the album charts the next two
years, ultimately selling 15 million copies.
Morissette was showered with
industry awards for "Jagged Little Pill," including Grammy
Awards for Album of the Year,
Best Female Rock Vocal Performance, Best Rock Song and Best
Rock Album.
Her much anticipated followup, "Supposed Former Infatuation
Junkie," is an extraordinary blend
of razor-sharp lyrical insights and
passionate melodies that marks
the next leap forward in Alanis'
growth as an artist. The Junkie
Tour, as it is called, marks the first
time Morissette has toured in the
United States for more than two

Dr. Ruse addresses the psycho problem
Dear Dr. Ruse.
Whenever I really like a guy, he never calls or gives me the time of day.
What's worse is psycho guys call me an pester me to the point of insanity.
I never get what i want! How do I fix this?
Sick of Psychos

—

Dear Sick,
I have heard many people, especially girls, complain about this situa-

tion.

I guess we should define a psycho before we do anything or I offer any

advice.
If you feel that a psycho is a guy who tries really hard to be nice and
make you feel comfortable, you are wrong and the guy is simply a person
you don't like at all. It doesn't mean he's a psycho.
On the other hand, if a guy follows you around, gets mad when you
speak to other guys or is straight mean to you, that is closer to what a psycho is. Maybe you are the type of person who isn't content with what
they have and if that's the case then you'll never be happy until you are
not only content with your companion but yourself too.
It seems that you want things you can't have or you just pick people
that you are compatible with.
As for the psycho thing, if he's really a psycho and not a guy trying too
hard, get out of it.
However, if you want things that are more of a challenge maybe you
should look at your own desires before you label someone a psycho.

— Dr. Ruse

-Dr. Ruse will return next week with more problems to try to solve for
others. If you have a question for Dr. Ruse you can either put your question in an envelope and label it "In care of Dr. Ruse" and put it in the folder outside the door of The Eagle Eye office or you can e-mail Dr. Ruse at

And he performed what he
said is one of his favorites,
he said,
"Crash." "I know,
"that some of you may be sick
of this song. I don't listen to
the radio, so I never get sick of
this song. It's called Crash."
Since all of the songs were
played acoustically, he didn't
play many of the songs that require a lot of other instruments.
Instead, he played more romantic, slower songs than usual,
capturing the crowd with renditions that they have never heard
of "Crush," "Don't Drink the
Water," "Cry Freedom Cry,"
"Spoon" and "Dancing Nancies."

Most fans though,
just yelled out the songs that
they wanted to hear and sometimes Matthews complied. The
song, by the way, was "Say
Good-bye," off his second album "Crash."
Another member of the audience stated, "This show was
great because you got to hear
how truly talented Dave and
Tim Reynolds are, it is not just
the studio doing all the work.
Tonight Dave sounded better
than any live or studio production I have ever seen."

utdoor World-your home away from home
Kristy Freeman
Eagle Eye Outdoors Editor
Visit great historic sites,
renowned beaches and world famous
attractions. A treat for the senses
awaits. Taste the succulent seafoods
of Maine and Massachusetts. Inhale
the salt-water breezes of the Jersey
shore. Feel the majesty of Pennsyl-

vania's astounding Pocono Mountains. See the past unfold on the Civil War battlefields of old Virginia.
Renew your spirit in the year-round
warmth of Florida's sun. It's all at
the resorts of Outdoor World.
Outdoor World is a resort that
has locations in Chicago as well as
up and down the East Coast from
Maine to Florida and offers a chance
to enjoy the outdoors as well as various outdoor recreational activities.
With a small membership fee,
only around $150 per year, members
have the option to either rent a
Recreational Vehicle (RV). park their
own RV at a camp site at no additional charge, or pitch a tent at a
campsite, also free of charge.
At peak time, the most expensive
rental units only run about $95 per
night. The cabin-looking luxury loft,
the unit with the most impressive
features, includes a master bedroom;
bathroom; full-functioning kitchen;
spacious living room, complete with
a pull-out couch; a stairway to the
upper loft, which comfortably sleeps
four adults and six children; snack
counter with stools; bay windows;
and french doors leading to a large

the resort demonstrates how it caters
to the true outdoor individual as well
as the less-daring outdoor individuals.
Now, you may be wondering
what else that membership fee includes. For starters, each resort includes a very large man-made lake
complete with a beach, numerous
lounge chairs, canoes, and paddle
boats; nature trails; volleyball, tennis, and basketball courts; two inground pools; convenience store;
game room; night club; miniaturegolf course; and, at some resorts, an
indoor water amusement park.

Another benefit to Outdoor
World is that it is a year-round resort. For example, at the nearby
Pocono Mountain Scotrun Resort in

Tannersville, Pa., the winter attracts
skiing tourists, but tourists find
themselves there in the spring, summer and fall as well.
Other Pennsylvania resorts include Timothy Lake, also in the
Poconos; Circle M in Lancaster;
Pennsylvania Dutch Resort, 25 miles
west of Lancaster; and Gettysburg
Farm Resort in Gettysburg, Pa.
The other resorts are all strategically placed along the East Coast so
that any traveler making his/her way
on a journey can be sure that they
have a home away from home.
Whether you are staying in Portland, Boston, Cape Cod, Washington, D.C., the Poconos, Williamsburg, the Jersey Shore, or Orlando,
an Outdoor World resort is nearby.

highway and I was left standing in an
acrid cloud of diesel fuel and dust. I
was glad I'd booked a plane for the
ride home.
I stood at the foot of Pike's Peak
and looked up at its great up-thrust of
earth and stone. The glaciers hadn't
gotten this one. I set my pack down
and checked my equipment-sleeping bag, tent, food, water, clothing,
flashlight, blah, blah, blah. I hadn't
forgotten my toothbrush either.

quired to rent the units, the beauty of

Pike's Peak looked like a giant
anthill as the dirty school bus hurtled
west on the gravel highway. We
were packed in like sardines and I
held my backpack tightly to my chest
since the storage areas were occupied
by everyone else's necessities. A
young copper-haired yuppie woman
kept getting up and reaching into her
four thousand pound suitcase to be
certain her hairdryer hadn't been forgotten, or that little makeup compact
hadn't fallen out at the last pit stop. I
kept thinking, obsessive-compulsive.
The bus bounded nervously teetering on two wheels, or so it felt.
We negotiated turns through the
mountains. Finally, I was reaching
my destination.
"Pikes Peak!" called the driver,
much to my satisfaction.
I planted my bag into the isle and
stood for the first time in five long
hours. My knees popped from the
lack of movement and I was glad that
I was getting out of this death machine. I swung my bag up onto my
shoulders and headed for the door,
not without first informing the obsessive-compulsive yuppie that she
dropped her toothbrush in the parking lot when we first left. She stared
at me like it was my fault and I
chuckled under my breath as I
stepped off the bus.

feet eight and one quarter inches in
the high jump, 23 feet, 8 inches in
the long jump and 45, feet 7 1/2

Head Coach Mark Elliston adds,
"Jeff has the ability to sweep all
three jumping events and has a good
shot at the school records."
Jefffirst began his track career in
the eighth grade, which led to the
breaking of numerous records at
Everett High School. He owns the
school records there in all threejumps and was a member of the
4x100 meter relay, which also owns
the school record.
"It seemed like I broke a record
at every meet I competed in." Mills
said. "I even remember breaking

g

three in one meet."
Mills qualified for the state meet
in both his junior and senior years.
His senior year at states, he won the
long jumpand finished fourth in the
triple jump.
After graduating, Mills was recruited to Shippensburg University
where he continued to break records
in the jumps. He also qualified for
nationals in the high jump his freshmen year and then in the long jump
his sophomore year. His jumps of 6
feet 8 and 1/4 inches in the high
jump and 23 feet, eight inches in the
long jump both weren't enough to
send him to nationals though, for the
conference can only send the top
eight athletes in the events. His
sophomore year, Jeff was denied a
trip by just one place.
Mills can only look into the future now, which looks very promising for him at Lock Haven. "We're
very glad to have Jeff," said Elliston,
"He is a very talented athlete and
will help out this team significantly"

Assistant Coach Tracy Muthler
added, "Jeff has been working very
hard to adjust to the training here,
which is different to what he was
used to at Ship."
Mills is constantly getting atteni
tion from the coaches, which is a big
turn around for him. "Ship was more
distance oriented," said Mills, "and I
pretty much had to coach myself."
Jeff will continue to compete in
all three jumping events and will also be part of the 4x100-meter relay.
gi
He also hopes to run an occasional
100 and 200-meter race.
"1 have an enormous amount of
confidence and that really helps
me," explains Mills. "If I have a
bad day, I'll bounce right back and
come out with a great performance
at the next meet. I don't ever let
abad performance get me down."

The Lady Eagles blew by Columbia Union with an
amazing score of 93-32 Monday night. Leading the way
for Lock Haven was Senior guard Tara Macciocco. Macciocco racked up a game high 24 points in eight shots and
broke a Lock Haven University record for the most 3pointers in one game.
"It feels good," Macciocco said. "It was a goal the
team talked about. Everyone did a great job getting me the
ball."
And the Lady Eagles' goal was definitely met with the
help of the whole team. Everyone got in and everyone
scored.
Lock Haven quickly jumped out in front with a 3pointer from Junior Missy Witters and also a few made
foul shots by forwards Mandy Shall and Tanya Brown. The
Lady Eagles kept increasing their lead throughout the first
part of the half.
By the 9:19 mark, the score was 36-11 Lock Haven.
Columbia Union did not put any more points up on the
board for the rest of the half. The Lady Eagles were not
done however. With the help of some key players such as
Holly Young, Brianna Bair, and of course Macciocco, who
had five of her eight 3-pointers in the first half. The Haven
increased their score to 59-11 by the first buzzer.
After the break, the Lady Eagles came out just as
strong with a jumper by Sophomore Shawna Boyd and a
layup by Brown. They were both assisted by junior guard
Rachel Ebeling.
Lock Haven continued to add to their score in the second half with several fast breaks and full court passes from
the whole team.
Macciocco's last three 3-pointers came within less than
one minute. At the 3:50 mark she hit the eighth one breaking the University's record. All three were made possible
with assists from Ebeling. Ebeling ended the game with
nine assists.
Some other highlights came from sophomore forward

three-point record
LOCK HAVEN-Lock Haven
University senior guard Tara Macciocco (Dunmore//Dunmore) set
two school records with her performance in last Wednesday's 93-32
win over Columbia Union College,
Macciocco, who scored a gamehigh 24 points, hit a new LHU single-game record eight 3-pointers in

eclipsed the old record, set by Suzie
Baird (1990-94), who notched seven 3-pointers against the Universtiy
of Bridgeport in the 1992-93 season.

Her showing last night elevated
her total to 50 three pointers on the

held by Jeanette Shafer, who posted
44 in the 1995-96 campaign.
For the season, Macciocco leads
LHU and ranks fifth in the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference

with a 16.4 points per game average. She leads the conference and
ranks second in the nation with a
90.3 percent average from the free
throw line. Among conference individuals, she ranks first in 3-point
field goals made (2.78/gm), fourth
in 3-point field percentage (3.88)
and seventh in overall field goal
percentage (.411).
Macciocco has led Lock Haven
in scoring in 11 of the team's 20
games this season, including a season-high 31 point performance
against the University of Pittsburgh-Johnstown. She is fourth on
the team with 4.1 rebounds per
gameand has chipped in with 27 assists and 23 steals.
