Dossou said he'd always

Despite the chance to attract

He said he thinks its important to punish students - particularly those from disadvantaged

Once they have finally departed, it is now your time to relax. You head back to bed and
nap for the rest of the day, forgetting about all the work that
has piled up and the various other things that could be done.
When you finally wake up

self for not getting anything
done, you remember why that

before who made your house
their home for the weekend.
Coincidentally these are the
people who you deal with time
and time again. The people who
are at your house more than you
are and do not pay any of thc
bills.
So, betore you head out the

door for the weekend, think

about where you are going and
who is going to be there. Plan
ahead and decide whether or not
you should stay. (The answer is
NO.)

I am not saying that you are
not welcome where you are go-

ing, but think about how you
would feel if the shoe were on
the other foot. You probably
wouldn't be too pleased.
Have fun this weekend regardless of everything ljust

One answer may be simpler than you may
think: Create a personal web page. A personal web
page can be noted at the top ofany resume or on a
simple business card. It will show your potential
employers that you have the technical skills as well
as the proactive attitude that it takes to compete in
today's workplace.
For many of you, your college or university
will have the tools and resources you need to develop your personal web page. Simply call your
college's computer services department or visit a
nearby computer lab. They will provide to you all
the technical information necessary to set up a web
page.
Also, spend time researching web design programs either on-line or at a software store. This
will enable you to purchase a program that suits
your needs and demonstrates your willingness to
learn additional skill sets.
Here are some items that should be considered
as you develop your personal web page:
Your resume. This should be prominent, if not
the first thing that a potential employer looks at.
The latest web page programs allow you to import
text directly from any word processor, so this will
be easier than you may expect.
Links to any notable projects, accomplishments, or companies you have worked for. Try to
take advantage ofthe fact that you are using technology to present yourself in a dynamic, appealing
way.

Links to letters ofrecommendation. Solicit in-

put from faculty and others to qualify you as the

outstanding candidate ofchoice.
Graphics. If you are going to include graphics,
use professional-quality images, which may be
purchased inexpensively on the Internet.

Media Madness
BUT LADIES, WE HARDLY KNOW YOU
Sexual frustration is rampant among the women of Kandara, Kenya, who say that demon rum
has made their men useless in the bedroom department.
They were so angry at their situation that they
stormed the police station and demanded that the
police chief either close down the village's illegal
drinking dens, find them new husbands or order
his men to make love to them on the spot.
The People newspaper ofNairobi did not say
what the police chose to do.
OK MEN, SEE IF YOU
CAN TRACK HIM DOWN
A young man went on a vandalism spree in
Pittsburgh, driving his large sport utility vehicle
across 15 of his neighbors' front yards, spinning
his wheels and ripping up their lawns. Then he
drove home, not realizing the mud and grass embedded in his tires left a trail for the cops to follow.
Police Chief Gary Anderson said, "It was a
very briefinvestigation."
HEY! WHAT THE...?!
A man in Egypt was shocked to discover that
his wife was born without a right breast, a fact she
had failed to mention prior to the wedding.
He went to court to have the marriage annulled, accusing her ofmisleading him. The court
refused the husband's demand, ruling that the
woman was healthy and able to perform her marital duties.

Cusack explores male heartbreak
First things first, I have to apologize publicly
to both Kristin and Tom, my editors, and whomever may have read last week's column on the Os-

cars. If it sounds disconnected and aimless, that's
because it was. As it happens, so was [. I was beginning to feel the effects of what would become a
full-blown bout with the flu when I wrote last
week's piece. So I was, shall we say, out of the
loop. Again, I apologize for what I felt was substandard material.
Now for the movie stuff, although I'm not entirely sure that I'll be writing any better this week,
since I'm still reeling from a Saturday evening
screening of"High Fidelity."
It is an adaptation ofNick Hornby's novel starring John Cusack. Even though this film is more
than satisfying in respect to modern-day cinema,
this may prove to be one ofthose flicks that appeal
more to men than women... but more on that momentarily.

Cusack plays Rob Gordon, a sad-sack record who spends most of his time obsessing over lost loves, both past arid present, and bickering with the snotty staffofhis shop (Todd Louiso
and Jack Black). While trying to win back his latstore owner

Hey, want to be a hero?
What are you going to be doing May 20 and 21? Some of
you will probably be a few
weeks into a summer job. Many
of you will be relaxing with your
family and friends, still recover-

ing from a long, tiring semester.
Maybe some of you will even be

on your way back here to start

the first summer session. I will
be walking, and walking, and
walking some more up at the
LHU track.
You may have heard that the
American Cancer Society is
holding its annual Relay for Life
at Hubert Jack Stadium. For
those of you who aren't familiar
with the Relay, it's a 24-hour
event where teams of 10-15 people walk to raise money for the
ACS.
Only one member of the
team has to be walking at a time,
but at least one must be walking
throughout the 24 hours. Of
course, no one is penalized or
shunned if they can't stay the entire 24 hours. Everyone understands that work and family
commitments might make it
hard to be away for a full day.
Everyone also understands that
sometimes your feet just won't
take you any further!
H
Thc event originated in Tacoma, Washington in 1985, as a
tribute to a man who died of cancer at a young age. A surgeon

and American Cancer Society
volunteer by the name of Dr.
Gordon Klatt ran/walked on a
track for 24 straight hours. He
traveled 81 miles and raised
$27,000 for the ACS.

Obviously, the event has
changed a little bit since then,
But the hopes are just as high,
With dozens, even hundreds of
teams at each event, and events
taking place all over the state
and country, imagine the money
that will be raised for cancer research, education and support
services!
Now that I've told you a littie bit about the event, let ine fell
you how I happened to get involved with it. It's an interesting
story. and hopefully you'll get
something out of it...
Every year since my junior
year of high school, I've tried to
participate in some sort of
I undraising event for a "good
cause." I have done the Walk
America (for healthy babies)
once or twice, and I've also done
thc MS Walk a few times. I even ;

did the Biketoberfest one year.
The first couple years my
goal was just to raise the 75 or
100 dollars I needed to get a Tshirt. r figured it was a great
way to get some exercise, and I
would be helping to raise some
money as well. I'll admit this
was a semi-selfish rationale, but
I still helped.
I also became more interested in the diseases and health
problems that were involved.
Honestly, it is one of the things
that got me interested in health
and wanting to tell people about
it. I would tell my family or
friends about a bit of information I learned from a pamphlet
and feel like I was making a difference (as cheesy as that
sounds!).

Up until last year, the walks
I participated in were relatively
small. I usually walked in East
Stroudsburg, or in the suburbs of

Harrisburg when I was at Dickinson. It seemed like there
weren't more than a few hundred
of us at each event, but it was
still fun. We walked through
neighborhoods and were given
snacks along the way, and it was
just a nice way to spend a couple
hours.

Last year, though. I did the
MS Walk in Charlotte. It was a
full-blown event there, and I really loved it. There were thousands of people there, and there
were tons of people just cheering
us on.
We started at a big park, and

had bona-fide fitness instructors
warm us up and get us "pysched
up" for the walk. Then we headed out; some in wheelchairs,
some with strollers, some even
brought their dogs,
We could choose a 3 to 4mile route or an 8-mile route,
The walk took us all over the
beautiful residential areas and
the city-center roads that were
blocked off for the event.
This was the first time I really felt like the walk was the main
focus of the town, rather than it
just being a couple hundred peopie who get together and do their
"thing" as most people go about
their regular business. In Charlotte the walk was their "regular
business" that day!
I realize now that it is probably all relative. It seemed like
there were more people and
more involvement in Charlotte
because there are simply more

People choose to deal with
their daily problems in different
ways. Some listen to music at
extremely loud levels. Some
drive very fast in their cars.
Some go down to their favorite

their problems. Others gohome,
kick the dog or ferret, or whatever family pet they may have.
I have tried all of these
methods of stress relief, except
the last one of course, and all
have worked from time to time.
I have only found one that works

that is a simple walk in the

stream, or paddle across a lake.

INDIANAPOLIS The beginnings and the ends begin to blur
when winter turns to spring and
college basketball seasons, one
by one, come to an end.
When the afterglow of a
championship season was just
beginning to take shape at
Michigan State, it became clear
that the start could be traced to
another very late night just over

'What will be our distraction?'
"I said, 'The distraction will
be the agents all over our players, trying to get them to do some
things.' Sometimes agents can
change players and make them
try lo be something they're not.
"I said, 'That's going to be
your biggest headache. And winning the Big Ten will be your
second biggest.' And I was right.
That's what happened."
Johnson was ahead of the
curve. In recent months, as the

NCAA has intensified efforts to
control or eliminate influences it
considers undesirable, connections between agents and athletes
have received more and more attention.
Mike Miller of Florida became the most recent example
last week, following a report that

Days before Florida's national semifinal game against North
Carolina, the university suddenly
had an issue to address.Michigan
State reportedly was one of the
teams the agent had targeted. But
a similar issue did not develop.
Izzo and his staff "kept the
players away from the sharks
who were going to destroy
them," Johnson said. "Just like
Miller had this guy calling him.
That's a distraction. And coach
Izzo knew it was going to be a
distraction for them, too, if he let
it. But that never came about."
Johnson's face is still too
young for him to be considered
an elder statesman. He stood in
the basement of the RCA Dome
wearing a green Michigan State
sweatshirt.
As the Florida party passed
by on the way to thc buses. Johnson made eye contact with
Miller. "All right big fella,"
Johnson called across the corridor. "You all right?"
Miller nodded. "I'm all
right," he said."You've got a
good game," Johnson said.
"Keep working on it."
Johnson had left Michigan
State after his sophomore season
ended with a championship 21
years ago. But now he was saying Miller was not ready to take
the step to the NBA.
"I like him," Johnson said.
"It's like he needs some seasoning salt."
When Mateen Cleaves asked
Johnson his opinion a year ago,
the answer was the same. "I said,
'Look, you're not ready for the
NBA. You've got to come back,'
" Johnson said.
But Cleaves is off to the
NBA draft now, and Michigan

It looked promising early as
The Lady Eagles netted the first
two goals of the game. Unfortunately, they would turn out to be
the only scores of the game for
the team as Longwood scored 14
unanswered goals.
The Lady Eagles defense was
suspect as Megan Carlin had
nine goals scored against her,
and only managed five saves.
With 32 minutes gone by, Cindy
Brownell stepped in and let in
five more goals, but managed
seven saves. Carleen Childs
played well with an assist and a
goal to her credit.
