Today, he w ill undergo brain surgery to reduce the effects o f Parkinson’s disease. As an ASU police officer, Calvin Chappel put his life in danger every­ day to fight crime. But today he will undergo risky brain surgery to combat Parkinson’s disease. “The operation is the big point,” Chappel said. “It’s the one thing (doctors) plan on in the long-run for Parkinson’s, and it’s a tried and true method. I’ve got the best surgeons in the country working for me, so that’s what I’m really looking for­ ward to.” Parkinson’s disease, a progres­ sive disorder of the central nervous system, affects more than 1 million people in the U nited S tates. It is characterized by a decrease in spon­ tan eo u s m o v em en ts, tre m o r and postural instability. S ince d ia g n o se d in 1993, Chappel had combated the disease with medication, the most common m ethod o f controlling Parkinson’s disease. But medical advancements have increased the popularity of surgical treatments within the past decades. Chappel will be im planted with a thalamic stimulator, a device used to control shaking and trembling. "Usually, there’s over-activity in some areas of the brain, under-activ­ ity in o th e rs ,” said E dw ard Casteneda, an ASU psychology pro­ fessor. “A thalam ic stim u lato r is going to be implanting an electrode in a specific site to try and stimulate a part o f the brain th at is u n d er­ active. “Anytime you go into the brain, i t ’s quite risk y ,” he added. “The procedure has to be very accurate, probably because you’re targeting som ething within the accuracy o f the millimeter.” Chappel, an eight year veteran of the ASU P olice D epartm ent, has received a tremendous outpouring of su p p o rt from his co llea g u es and community. On June 3, ASU police officers shaved their heads like Chappel at R ay’s B arbershop in the Tem pe C enter, near M ill A venue and University Drive. Amidst the bald heads and jovial conversations, a contagious, warm atm osphere perm eated the barber­ shop and in e v ita b ly a ffe c te d its inhabitants. Officer Charles Loftus, who coor­ dinated the buzzeut rally, said he intended to reassure Chappel of the departm ent’s backing: in word and deed. “Cal has to get his head shaved, and he’s going to be out of work for ab o u t tw o m o n th s,” L o ftu s said. “One o f th e w ays fo r us to keep th in k in g ab out him is to g et our heads shaven. That way, our hair will be grow ing out at about the same tim e, and also, it creates a b it of curjosity in the community. This is o u r way o f say in g , ‘G ood luck. We’re thinking about you, buddy.’” “I’m hoping to show support by com ing here and tellin g him that we’re in his comer, (and) 1 think all of us being here today shows that,” officer George Pizarro said. Chappel said he is happy to receive such support. “It makes me realize I have more friends than 1 thought,” he said. The recovery process will occupy Chappel for a few months. But he said he ex p e c ts to re tu rn to the department. And although he was taken off bike patro l and assig n ed to desk d u tie s , C h ap p el said i t ’s only momentary. “ I an ticip ate com ing back and being on patrol again,” he said. “Look out, bikers.” Tempe Town Lake stirs up city, may raise hum idity More than 200 million gallons of water have spilled into the Tempe Town Lake since floodgates opened June 2. The lake could be completely filled in a three weeks to a month, and it is expected to become a mecca of recreation and business. ' Once the lake is filled, ASU scientists and Tempe Water Resources Department will conduct tests on the lake’s environmental impact. They are concerned about how it will affect air temperature and humidity. Next week, the State Press will take an in-depth look at environmental and safety concerns, how businesses are responding and where ASU figures into the equation.

MR** m Ë M B m È È B im È m Illegal adoptions plague system On May 26, M ario R eyes, a Mexican lawyer well known in the A rizona border tow n o f D ouglas where he has a home, was arrested. Also arrested were New York resi­ dents Arlene Liberman and Arlene Reingold. Officials suspect the three were running an illegal adoption ring in which M exican ch ild ren were placed with American couples for fees of $20,000 or more. The case highlights some very human attributes. The first being the desire to parent. When that biological clock is ticking and nature doesn’t cooperate many individuals or couples seek the adoption route. It is an option I chose twice . Nothing can beat the first time you pick up the phone and hear that there’s a baby waiting for you. And parents desperately searching for children to love are an easy target, and there seem to be fewer and fewer babies available for adoption. Fewer adolescent girls are giving up their babies. And white families searching for healthy, white newborn babies face a long wait. Fewer persons of color apply to adopt. But when they do, they often have first dibs on babies with similar racial backgrounds. This leaves many families wishing to adopt healthy newborns with few options. Adopt a newborn baby of color, adopt an older child, or adopt internationally. Each option is fraught with prob­ lems. Interracial adoption has been an inflammatory issue since the 1970’s when the National Association of Black Social Workers objected to the number of black children being placed into w hite fo ster or adoptive hom es. NABSW opposed the practice on the grounds that white adoptive parents couldn’t prepare black children for the societal racism they would experience The Child Welfare League of America’s position is that culture and ethnicity must be considered when placing a child in an adoptive home. However, if a permanent home of the child’s culture or ethnicity cannot be found then other options, such as interracial adoption, should be considered. The bottom line is that children should not be without a permanent home because of the inability to “race match.” Placement has been an issue surrounding adoption of American Indian children as well The Indian Child Welfare Act of 1978 was developed because 25 to 35 per­ cent of Native American children were being placed in foster and adoptive homes without Native American par­ ents. The Act precludes the placement of American Indian children in homes without similarly-raced families. The option of adopting older children is often over­ looked. Potential adoptive families hesitate because, even if the children do not have physical or intellectual difficul­ ties, the older they are the more likely they are to have emotional problems. It’s hard to avoid emotional problems when one goes through a series o f placements. Sadly, many older foster children are forgotten. Is it any wonder that some individuals or couples opt to adopt internationally? it may take time, but when deal­ ing with a»reputable agency, parents usually don’t have the types of problems the adopters involved in the pending illegal adoption case face. It is alleged that some parents unwittingly adopted babies in poor health or who had been abused. And apparently they do not have immigration or adoption documents for. the babies they thought they had adopted. These kind of unscrupulous agencies are precisely why the provincial government in Quebec outlawed private adoption several years ago. Now, all adoptions go through the public social service agencies. There are no surprises for adopters. As a two-time adopter I feel for these parents. What should have been a beautiful experience has turned into a nightmare for them. - But something as important as the placement of a help­ less child into a completely strange and often foreign envi­ ronment needs time. Always remember—if it seems too good to be true it probably is. Adopters should be wary when promised adoptions much quicker than older more established agen­ cies can provide them.

No, let me be m ore sp ecific. I have a hard tim e believing that he stabbed her several dozen times over the course of half an hour and then dragged her into the pool to drown her, all while he was slccp w alk in g . N eighbors reported hearing screams. Talk radio has been full of people phoning in who sleep­ walk. Most callers say that when you sleepwalk you do normal, routine, everyday things. You open the fridge, you put on your pants, maybe you’d even get into your car. I find it hard to believe that a multiple stabbing is an ‘.eyetydaiytotiStityfor, most folks. I mean, we’re not talking about the Simpson household here. The other thing about sleepwalking is that you tend to wake up when people shake you, yell at you or, say, scream and flail at you for half an hour. I'm concerned about this whole sleepwalking defense. It makes me wonder about the interpretation of the word responsibility in today ’s society. I’m not usually one to overreact and assume that such things will set a precedent, but this case might give ideas to those aggressive experienced attorneys whose commercials I see while watching Spiderman in the morning. Now, in addition to the steroid rage and the I-was-oncrack and I-just-w atched-eight-straight-hours-of-theTeletubbies defenses, you can claim you were just simply unaware of what you were doing when you slam into a minivan after having three pitchers of margaritas. Don’t misunderstood me. I’m not echoing the Ollie North, G. Gordon Liddy, and Rush Limbaugh line of con­ servative concern over the waning of personal responsibili­ ty in our society. Two of those three men know their way around both sides of the law. Such personal responsibility concerns are usually voiced by those who, for my mind, have very little of it themselves. Many o f the people bemoaning the lack of personal responsibility espouse a kind of conservatism that itself seems irresponsible. These are the folks who want to flat­ ten the vehicle license tax in Arizona so that the $23 I pay for two years rises to meet the tax of the Lexus-dweller who now no longer has to shell out 400 bones a year. These days, it seems that responsibility is ju st a word levied irresponsibly at whomever we disagree with. S teve Vroom an C olum nist People who preach responsibility-giving welfare “reform” while gleefully supporting the corporate welfare o f the Rio Salado project are another example. These are the folks whose welfare reform ideas actually discourage people from going to school and instead demand that they immediately support their families with that fab job at Mickey D’s. These are people who, when you press them, will say that the “gov’ment” should stop picking on tobacco and gun companies, that R.J.Reynolds and the like should not be held responsible for the damages their products do. “Wait a m inute!” says the tiny conservative on my What Do You Think? 2 Fax: 965-8484 W e b s it e : httpy/www.statepress.com shoulder (who could be either an angel or devil, you decide). “Don’ t you want people to take responsibility for their actions?” Well, yes. But, shouldn’t .everyone be held to ideals of responsibility if we’re going to play this game? Why let Philip Morris or the cops who beat Rodney King off the hook? These days it seems that responsibility is just a word levied irresponsibly at whomever we disagree with. That, in a nutshell, is everything you need to know about the Clinton-Lewinsky affair. Henry Hyde and his cronies will still tell you that Nixon was a great man. “He went to China,” my small Republican friend whispers in my ear. “Uh-huh,” I say and flick him off my shoulder. This, then, is the most disturbing thing about the sleep­ walking defense — that society is crass and two-faced about issues of responsibility. I no longer have faith that we can talk about this issue intelligently or that juries can make good decisions. But this is not the fault o f the lawyers, despite what people like William Bennett and Rush Limbaugh might say, Juries come from regular people like you and me who have been inundated with cynical doublespeak about responsibility for so long that we no longer know what to do. It’s not the 60s and its liberal spawn that gave us the sleepwalking defense. Civil rights and Kent State were all about people taking up responsibilities society had ignored. So, what is responsible for our society’s lack of personal accountability? I think I know, but I don’t want to cast aspersions. That would be irresponsible. Oh, what the hell. I blame Reaganism and the elevation o f the personal bottom line. Steve Vrooman is a graduate student studying com­ munication and can be reached at svrooman@asu.edu.

Animal rights must be balanced w ith human needs Paula Cole, whose popular songs include “ W here have all the C ow boys G one?” recently faxed a letter to Chuck Rawley, the president of Kentucky Fried Chicken. Cole’s m essage to the fast food chain’s top execu­ tive was simple: “As a KFC will consider adding some meat-free fare to its m enu.” She noted that McDonald’s has introduced veggie burgers at its New York City restaurants and stated, “On b eh alf o f PETA ’s (People for the Ethical Treatm ent o f Animals) 600,000 m em bers, I urge KFC to o ffer veggie options, too. For starters, how about some tasty soy-based chicken-friendly nuggets?” N orm ally, using the word tasty to describe a soy-based product would cause me to have a quick chuckle followed by an immediate dismissal of whatever the person was trying to say. But in Cole’s case, I had a yearning to learn more about PETA and what the organization is all about. PETA ’s philosophy is quite sim ple according to its m ission statem ent. “Animals are not ours to eat, wear, experi­ ment on, or use for entertainment.” Upon first glance, I have a few reservations about PETA’s mission statement. I enjoy a good cheeseburger as much as the next guy. And, thanks to Jonas Salk and his experiments oh monkeys, I did receive a polio vaccination when I was a baby. Nonetheless, I have pets and value animal life and can understand an organization that strives to protect the little furry creatures. However, after visiting the frequentlyasked questions portion of PETA’s Internet site, my views about the non-profit organi­ zation were confirmed. PETA is a little too far out in left field for my liking. Let me share three o f the FAQ and answers with you as they appear on PETA’s web site. Q: “What is animal rights?” A: “Animal rights means that animals deserve certain kinds of consideration consideration of what is in their own best interests regardless o f whether they are cute, useful to humans, or an endangered species, and regardless o f whether any human cares about them at all (just as a retarded human has rights even if he or she is not cute or useful Or even if everyone dislikes him or her). It means recognizing' that animals are not ours to use -— for food, clothing, entertainment or to experiment on.” Q: “Animals don’t reason, don’t under­ stand rights and don’t always respect our rights, so why should we apply our ideas of morality to them?” A: “Animals’ inability to understand and adhere to our rules is as irrelevant as a child or mentally handicapped person’s inability to do so.” Q: “How can you justify spending your time on animals when so many people need help?” A: “There are very serious problems in our world that deserve our attention; cruelty to animals is one of them. We should try to allev iate suffering w herever we can. Helping animals is not more or less impor­ tant than helping human beings — both are important. Animal suffering and human suffering are interconnected.” Let me see if I understand this correctly because I am really confused. PETA, this caring sensitive organization — this cham­ pion of animal rights — has the audacity (or is it idiocy) to compare animals to dis­ liked, unattractive, retarded human beings. This self-anointed, progressive, non­ profit group really believes helping animals is equally as important as helping humans. I’m not a big fan of political correctness, but I am a huge proponent o f common sense. Common sense dictates that humans are superior to animals and that it is more important to help human beings. Common sense demands that you don’t liken animals to an unattractive, retarded, disliked person. Common sense also requires you to make logical statements and connections when arguing your point. I don’t know how a non-profit organization like PETA can lack so much common sense. But I do know one thing...

The Arizona Students Association assembled list June to address major concerns of each respective university.

So ASA decided to go before the Arizona legislature directly. The result was the University Accountability Act, T uition Tax R elief Bill and Student Privacy Rights.

Edgar Rice B urrough’s novel of a man raised by gorillas and seeking to understand where he came from. Before the droid armies are called out to destroy this latest in a long list of movie adaptations of the book, this incantation has something going for it: a fresh approach to the Hollywood perennial favorite. ; Disney’s version of Tarzan revolves around the young orphan’s life and transition into adulthood and assimilation in his new jungle life. Of course the story is replete With humor, drama, and fuzzy moments, as the audience watches Tarzan grow up in the idyllic jungle life. This film appears to deviate from standard Disney norms and is surprisingly different from the entertainment company’s traditional offerings. The animation, music, editing, and characters all show signs of tweaking the standard format with surprising­ ly good results. Probably the most amazing aspect of this film was the lush and beautiful animation that could impress even the most hardened critic. While not in the same style of popular Toy Story, the newest computer imag­ ing techniques of Deep Forest allowed the animation to really come alive in the story. With the rapid-fire, edge-of-your-seat animation sequences featuring Tarzan gracefully “surfing” through the dense jungle of Africa, it was comparable to a virtual roller-coaster ride, minus the sick to your stomach feeling at the end. As far as the stars, however, Carl Jung would still be happy with the required archetypical humorous and goofy sidekicks, a nasty villain, a honorable hero and a love interest. What makes the characters unique is the believability and dimension they all portray. The voic­ es lent by Glen Glose, Minnie Driver, Tony Goldwin and Rosie O’Donnel masterfully add drama to the tale. The audience is allowed to see into Tarzan’s world, and feel his struggle between his gorilla family and the new inductees to the jungle. The sense of the basic Rich texturized animation adds adult appeal to the literary classic. human needs of being accepted ,and belonging are finely displayed in this film. Most audience members should be able to relate to the Tarzan characters plight in this film. Another important aspect of Tarzan, is the use of music during the film. As the story begins, the audi­ ence is drawn into Tarzan’s life by being enveloped by the rich percussion-based music of Phil Collins. This adaptation of Tarzan demonstrates to the world that through the Disney magic of animation the story still has some “force” behind it. It should sur­ prise even the most ardent anti-Disney fanatics. A Z n ative brings T a rza n s to ry to m o d e rn audiences By Em il y Jo h n s o n S t a t e P r ess Phoenix native and Disney ani­ mator Glen Keane recently came home to help promote Tarzan. Having grown up as the son of gifted cartoonist Bil K eane, the artist best known for his strip F a m i ly Circus, Glen didn’t stray far from his art-driven path by ending up working for Disney as an animator. ' F or th is film , K eane had the daunting task o f creatin g the lead character of Tarzan. Having created such pop icons as Ariel, Aladdin, and Pocahantas, Keane was up for the challenge. “Each character is defined by how they move. Tarzan had to really move and enjoy it. Tarzan was the most com­ plex to design,” Keane said. “Probably the most challenging part of creating the character was learning to speak French,” he said referring to his year stay in Paris where he was study­ ing classical drawing and anatomy. It was also in Paris where he worked with animators in the Disney animation studios while collaborating with the directors in California to bring the story of Tarzan to the big screen. “The first drawings of Tarzan were much more realistic until I loosened up with my drawing,” Keane said. “There M innie D river lends her voice to the character Jane in Disney’s Tarzan, due out this summer. had to be a flexibility in his character and adaptation.” Like his father, Keane discovered inspiration from those closest to him -— his family. It wasn’t really until Keane saw his son Max skateboarding throughout Paris’ landmarks that he got some inspiration from extreme sports as a clue to Tarzan’s behavior and action. ‘Tarzan had to be active. I was try­ ing to discover why these people do these sports ... it turned out to be for the thrill of it — the rush,” Keane said. Based on that idea, Tarzan developed into a “tree surfer” who instead of clum­ sily grappling with vines, seems to effort­ lessly glide through the jungle as he hops, leaps, climbs and rides the vines. Animation for the film also had an a new technology that allowed the it to really pop. This revolutionary technology called Deep Forest allowed two-dimensional characters to move through the jungle. “The thing with Deep Forest is it lets you do anything. The problem was decid­ ing what anything was for the movie,” Keane said. ‘T h at’s how we ended up with a roller coaster based scene.” The animation of this film could easily stand alone as striking and creative. However, with Keane’s masterfully-created title character of Tarzan, the audience sees an intelligent, intense and honorable human struggling to determine basic needs. “I wanted to find out why would Tarzan struggle to leave the gorillas,” Keane said. State Press to r Tuesday, ju n e S, I f f t Tarzan director supports strong family values in film By Em il y ..........YOUR STR AVAILABLE WHEREVER YOU PICK UP YOUR Jo h n s o n S t a t e P ress 7iar*an director Kevin Lima was skeptical at first about creating another version of the classic movie. With an estimated 37 different versions o f the classic novel by Edward Scott Burroughs, most of America may feel the same. “I was skeptical at the start of the project ... I couldn't imagine an animated version,” Lima said during a recent stop in the Valley. “However, we went back to the book and discovered a story only animation could tell.” Lima, an animation veteran who first directed Disney’s A Goofy Movie, decided the story need to be told and only animation could do it justice. “First, we needed to have Tarzan leap, dive and explore his relationships with the animals,” Lima said. By using animation, both aspects o f Lim a's Vision could realistically come to life. It allowed more flexibility and freedom to pursue the final version. To create this version of Tarzan, Lima replied that he never re-watched any of the other Tarzan movies to avoid any plot similarities. However, there are some icons of classic Tarzan movies that show up in the film. “Tarzan had to wear a loin-cloth, and he had to yell,” Lima said. However, there is no utterance o f the infamous line: “Me Tarzan. You Jane.” Another exciting part of directing is the casting of char­ acters (or in this case voices) to bring the story to life. Lima admits the character of Jane was originally written as a prim, proper Victorian lady until Minnie Driver came into read the part. She surprised everyone by taking the character into another direction — an extroverted, out­ going and loud woman. This allowed Jane to become more of a strong character within the film. “It turned out that Jane was my favorite character. She turned out to be a good role model, someone who doesn’t just talk and doesn’t have to be beautiful to be successful,” Lima said. “Plus my wife wanted me to make sure Jane turned out to be a strong person.” Music was also used in an important way in this film. Lima believes that a story defines how music should be incorporated and used as a narration to accompany the action on screen. One problem everyone grappled with was how to be true to the story without being violent. Toward the end of the editing process, makers had to cut a few scenes to reduce the level of violence in the film. ' “You have to be aware of how the audience is going to react and know the audience.” Lima said. Beside the anti-violence theme that pops up in the story, them es o f fam ily and the environm ent are explored. According to Lima, the strongest theme throughout the piece was family values. “We w anted to seek out the definition o f family. Nowadays, families aren’t just blood-related,” Lima said. “ I think this is one of the rare films where you will see a father and daughter tell each other they love diem.” By having such a strong theme of family and belonging, Lima hopes that everybody will experience the Disney ver­ sion of the timeless classic. “This movie was made not for five-year-olds, but the five-year-old in all of us,” Lima.

Foreign women use aupairprogram tofind new home aw from home By Rebecca H a llen g r en S t a t e P ress Linda-Marie Nordstrom spent her childhood in T idaholm , Sw eden, dreaming of America. She finally made it at 20 when she moved to Mesa as an an pair in 1996, where her job was to baby-sit and teach her new family about another culture. Nordstrom isn’t alone. About 12,000 young people from all over the world come to America each year as au pairs, looking for new experiences and life lessons. In exchange for room and board, they takf. care of their hosts’ children. The majority live with an American fam ily fo r one year, m aster the English language, teach and learn about cultures, and then return home. Every once in a w hile, they make news, as in 1997 when British au pair Louise Woodward was convicted of involuntary manslaughter. N ordstrom was responsible for baby-sitting four girls. She began her day by driving die 6-year-old child to ice skating practice at 6:30 a.m. daily. She spent the rest of the day with the two girls who were 6 months old and 2 years old. B efore th e h o st p aren ts cam e home, she put the two youngest girls into a stroller and walked to the ele­ mentary school to pick up the 6-yearo ld dau g h ter. T he fo u r o f them walked home together. The children’s m other cam e hom e at 2 p.m . and Nordstrom spent the rest of the day laying by the pool. T he U .S. Inform ation Agency established the au pair program in 1986. It allows foreigners between the ages o f 18 and 27 to com e to the United States. “It’s a cultural and educational exchange program ,” said Marthena Cowart, director of the office of public liaison at the agency in Washington, DC. F or N ordstrom and others who have gotten out of high school and are not going d irectly to a university, being an au pair is an opportunity to travel and work in America. “W e d o n 't have that many jobs back home,” Nordstrom said. “I was tired o f school, I wanted to get to know America and I love to travel.” Nordstrom has been in America tor the past three m onths visiting the many friends she m ade w hile she worked here, as well as the host fami­ ly she once lived with. She is also enrolled in a program in Sweden called Komvux. It was creat­ ed for people who need to improve their high school grades before apply­ ing for a Swedish university. “I w ant to becom e a n u rse ,” Nordstrom said. “Nurses are needed in Sweden because most Swedish nurses go to Norway because they get paid more there.” If I don’t get into the university, I will probably come back to America With a tourist visa again so I can travel more, Nordstrom said. Because au pairs are here to travel and learn a new language and culture, they are to be considered a part of the family, not an employee. The word au pair is French for “equal to,” remind­ ing the family that the au pair is there to teach diem about another culture as well as baby-sit. The USIA provides strict guide­ lines for host families. The host fami­ ly must provide a private bedroom, a means of transportation, meals and no less than minimum Wage for the hours that the au pair is responsible for the children. An au pair is not to work more than 10 hours a day, or 43 hours a week. They are guaranteed one weekend off each month, two weeks paid vacation and up to $500 tution for a college or university. The host family pays the au pairs’ round-trip airfare. The aver­ age annual cost of having an au pair is $12,000. There are between 50 and 75 au pairs in Arizona each year who have come through agencies. An au pair is hired by families who need extra help raising their children. Au pairs have daily duties similar to those of most mothers and fathers. “I woke up, made breakfast, took / « •ÜiSws-v am 3A them (die children) to school and did a couple machines of laundry. I did the grocery shopping and went to the dry cleaners,” said Malin Modorato, who was an au pair for a family in Paradise Valley in 1995 when she was 20 years old. She cam e from S ollentuna, Sweden. M odorato said she and her host mother spent the majority of their time driving the three girls ages 8, 10 and 12 to various activities such as gymnastics and ballet practice. “Once I drove for six hours without stopping,” she said. The au pair is required to take six credit hours at a college or university during th e tim e be or she is in the United States. “You c a n take anything from English to firearms safety,” said Christi Johnstone, the local coordinator in Phoenix for Au pair USA- Au pair USA is one of the eight agencies that work together with USIA to appoint au pairs to different host families through­ out the United States. These agencies are responsible for accepting and rejecting applicants. They screen each au pairs’ and host families’ application. The agency then matches each au pair with a family that seems compatible. “I probably talk as many people into getting an au pair as I talk out of getting more about children. “Living in America is a good experi­ ence for almost any field they are going into,” Johnstone said. “People like to see it (that they’ve been an au pair) on any resume.” There are far fewer male au pairs than female, “We have some great male au pairs, but most people feel more comfortable with females,” Johnstone said. “The males we do have are the cream of the crop.” ^ T B e n p a rfr also ^jn uncountable amount of illegal au pairs in die United States, “There are probably an equal num­ ber of illegal au pairs as legal au pairs,” Johnstone said. Illegal au pairs put ads in newspa­ pers or on the Internet and rely on indi­ vidual families to contact them. When illegal au pairs com e to the United States, they take the chance of being deported. “I always worry about the girls who come without an agency,” Johnstone said. Nina Wall, a 23-year-old senior at A$U, came to Arizona the first time as an au pair in June 1994. After her oneyear au pair visa expired, she went hom e to Sweden for Christm as pnd returned to Arizona shortly after with an international student visa. She went through an agency named EurAupair. “I think it’s a good safety net,” Wall said. “If something happened there is always someone you can call.” However, agencies are also very time consuming, Wall said. They want to know what the au pairs hobbies are, their special skills and health back­ ground. An interview and an applica­ tion fee o f $80 is mandatory. Families want au pairs for a variety of reasons. “We had very young children, and I had used Americans from a service and found them fairly unreliable,” said Marti Skloven, a full-time mother of three who has hired 10 au pairs. “By large, I found that a 20-year-old girl from Europe was more willing to take on re sp o n sib ility then a girl from America.” fH U Many girls from countries such as Sweden are not used to having dish­ Johnstone said there are many young people going into pediatric* o r child washers, garbage disposals and some care who want to be au pairs to learn other appliances that are standard in an au pair,” Johnstone said. The agency requires that each au pair talk with the fam ily he or she is assigned to at least twice before Coming to America. Au pairs who have been accepted and assigned to families go to New York City for a four-day training pro­ gram. There they are taught CPR, first . aid, child safety and what to expect in their new environments. They are also taught som e' basic stree t sm arts. ..

Outings are organized by the agency each month so all au pairs in the area can get to know each other. This also allows coor­ dinators to get to know the au pairs. “Sometimes, I’m there just so that they have a shoulder to cry o n ,” Johnstone said. If the au pair and the family are not compatible, the young person will live with the local coordinator until being placed with another family. “ The biggest problems are personality conflicts,” Johnstone said. “Some per­ sonalities just shouldn’t live together.” If an au pair is so homesick that he or she cannot stay any longer, they are allowed to go home. In that case the au pair must pay for his or her own plane ticket home, and he or she loses the $500 deposit which is put down when he or she arrives. The majority of au pairs learn how to cope with their new environments and come away from it with a variety of life lessons. “Even though it’s not so intellectual­ ly stimulating to work as a nanny, you learn how to deal w ith p eo p le,” Modorato said. “When I go home (to Sweden) I see things from such a differ­ ent perspective.” American homes . “Most o f them stepped up to the plate and got right into the American kitchen,” Skloven said.

I# Beeloe’s artists bring new light to local a rt scene By D an M aker S t a t e P ress Peering over the second floor banister upon the busy crowd, jazz musicians and artists hard at work bring a speakeasy feel to Beeloe’s on a Saturday night. Since the opening o f Beeloe’s in April of 1996, they have offered a unique setting fo r w hich artists may show case th eir art while pulling in enthusiasts. “Just because it’s a pub­ lic place that the artists can show at, it eliminates the middleman of the gallery and you get more public viewing than you would at a g allery ,” said DeAnne Furr Kleiner, art coordina­ to r. “A gallery is asking people to come specifically for art, where at Beeloe’s you come for the entertain­ ment, the food, as well as the art. So it’s a nice mix. I like to say it’s a variable feast for the palette.” This setting has attracted many artist to enjoy the atmosphere while self pro­ moting their art. “You have something to look forward to each week and the art is inspiring.” said Herman D. R elf Jr. who works on his paintings weekly at B eeloe's. “For those who did go to school and did some type of gallery instillation, you get a chance to do it here at the same tim e. I feel good about that. It’s inspiring. You could go as far as you want here.” Relf himself is not new to the local art scene. His paintings, depicting local jazz and blues musicians, captures the essence o f stage perform ance while showing the unique colors the patrons bring in. “My father was a musi­ cian. He played with Ike and Tina T urner, Ray Charles. He knew a lot Of band leaders and people like that,” R elf said. “He had a band here called Herman Relf and the Blue Notes in the 50s on the south side. “Sometimes when I meet a musician, I go to where they work and draw their pictures. I go to the Scottsdale center for the arts, everywhere they had music, jazz festivals, blues, whatever. I was just pro- pelled to put something on paper while these guys were moving." Watching his father play and being around m usic constantly inspired him to pick up art and try to cap­ ture his fa th e r’s jo y on paper. “1 had started as a kid m otivated m ostly by my mother. When she saw me draw ing I w ould react enthusiastically like a dog salivating.” Relf said laugh­ ing. “I’m sort of a shy per­ son, so I can get loose on the paper. But I have to challenge it.” After high school Relf won a scholarship from the L A . Times to develop his art. Relf then backed away from creatin g art and music to pursue a “more stable” career. Years later, he came back to painting to rem em b er his late father, “It was just a fulfilling thing to get back to my father. You know how fathers and sons separate,” Relf said. “I left music to see how he lived in a big house playing music. I saw that if I keep doing this I will make it. “Now I get the enjoy­ m ent o f seeing all these great artists out here. So, I gave it up for a while then I cam e back. I gave it up because I w anted to see w hat life was like, so I couldn’t hide behind the drawing.” “They continue to bring new things in,” Relf added. “I get to see all kinds of work ranging from old mas­ ters techniques, mixed up mediums and then som e­ thing like an African style Piccaso. It’s really positive, i t 's a challenge, and it keeps me up. It’s a good mix because of the college life. It’s a pleasure and an honor to be out here.” Serving Lunch and Dinner 7 Days a Week JVC) W I I V O U R 3 6 th Y E A R T hank y o u f o r y o u r p a tro n a g e !

Relf, Jr. works on a painting at Beeloe’s. Local artists showcase work By D e n is e Es tfa n S t a t e P ress The Higher Ground Café in Tempe is in the middle of a change in ownership. But one thing thatw ill remain constant is the community connection the café pro­ vides by having local artists showcase th e ir ta le n ts , a c c o rd in g to P h illip Hernandez, the café’s new owner. Higher Ground is one venue that has been displaying local artists’ woik since it opened more than five years ago, said John Ayers, former owner. Ayers said his decision to showcase local art was “a way reating com m unity involvement as well as giving these artists an outlet to display their creative works.” “Most of the artists hear about Higher Ground through word of mouth and bring in samples for me to look over,” said Ayers. He then books the artist for a one-month engagement, which includes an opening on the first Friday of the month. “Mach of the art is abstract and varies from photography to paintings. All of the art is priced to sell ranging from $30 to $1800. The main constancy is tihat all of the art comes from the local community,” Ayers added. The new exhibition showing June 5 through July 1 is called “The Many Faces of the Portrait*’ and features three artists, Annette Callahan, Allan Guisinger and Tony Pedios, g Callahan has shown her work at Higher Ground three times, this time being her first opening. She began showing her work in an interesting way, “When the café first opened I used to bake cookies and brownies to sell there. I developed a relationship with John (the previous ow ner), and when he started showing art work 1 took the opportunity to show my own.” “I’ve been dabbling in art for many years, but only began to get serious six years ago,” Callahan said. “My art takes many forms and I think the portraits I am showing give a view into the artist’s soul.” “Showing my portraits is a way of express­ ing my moods,” Pethers said concerning his first exhibit and opening at Higher Ground. Guisinger also explained what display­ ing his portraits represents to him. “I think I am blindly uncovering the moments in which the unconscious act informs the conscious of its experience, its the understanding of our time,” Guisinger said.

G r a y A s s o c ia t e d P r e s s KUKES, Albania Intent on remaining an armed force and swelled by new recruits bent on revenge, the Kosovo Liberation Army could upset NATO’s plans for the future of the province. The rebels are fighting hard to push as deep-into Kosovo as possible before Yugoslav forces leave and American and other international peacekeepers arrive. NATO says Yugoslav forces are counterattacking, hoping to crush the rebels before then. “As the Serb forces pull out and the NATO forces move into Kosovo, we expect the Kosovo Liberation Army ... not to try to take advantage of die situa­ tion,” NATO spokesman Jamie Shea said. “NATO forces will be operating Under strict rules of engagement and of course they will not tolerate any hin­ drance to their mission. More specifi­ cally, we hope the Kosovo Liberation Army will renounce violence,” Regardless of the outcome of the latest -fighting, the bloodied, 17,000strong KLA is in a position to become a key player in postwar Kosovo, having gathered sweeping popular support by taking on far superior Serb forces. “The KLA will be die sole force in Kosovo creating institutions. It will be the strongest force influencing the future of Kosovo,” Kadri Kryeziu, a spokesman for the group, said in the frontier town of Kukes on Sunday. On the brink of extinction after the Serbs accelerated their crackdown when NATO began airstrikes March 24, die resurgent KLA can rightly claim to have helped the allies achieve victory in Kosovo. NATO acknowledges that KLA attacks flushed out Serbian armor and ground troops, exposing them to deadly airstrikes. The Serb crackdown prompted a flood of volunteers from the vast refugee population and ethnic Albanians living in Europe and North America. Many among the hundreds of thousands of ex-patriots help fund the guerrillas via a three percent “Homeland Calling” levy on their incomes. At refugee camps, children chant “UCK,” the Albanian acronym for the KLA, and teen-agers wish they were 18 so they could join their heroes in the mountains. Mothers proudly send sons and daughters to fight A large majority of the Kosovo refugees regard die KLA as its shield against future Serb repression — a role the guerrillas are eager to assume. That is not necessarily good -news for die United States and its partners as they prepare for a peacekeeping mis­ sion. NATO expects the KLA to trans­ form into a political movement Although NATO launched its air campaign ostensibly to protect Kosovo Albanians and compel Serb forces to leave the province, Western powers and the KLA share vasdy different views on Kosovo’s future once the fighting stops. The Americans, Europeans and the Russians want Kosovo to remain part of Yugoslavia — albeit with a govern­ ment more democratic and tolerant than that of President Slobodan Milosevic. However the rebels, and probably the vast majority of the Kosovo Albanians, want independence — espe­ cially after the bloody and traumatic expulsion of more than 855,000 of them. KLA leader Hashim Thaci accepted an interim autonomy deal in March under a peace plan that Belgrade reject­ ed - - triggering the NATO air cam­ paign. However, KLA leaders made clear they considered autonomy a short­ term measure leading to independence. The wave of atrocities unleashed STUDENT TRAVEL after the bombing began has only sharpened the idea among many Kosovo Albanians that they cain fto longer live together with the Serbs. ■ . While die KLA pledges cooperation with NATO peacekeepers who could soon be deployed in the province, rebel leaders sidestep the issue of “demilita­ rization” called for under the agree­ ment KLA official Jakup Krasniqi said the guerrillas wouldn’t lay down their arms until all Serb forces withdraw from the province and ethnic Albanian refugees return home. This could take months. “Afterwards, the KLA will cease to be a liberation army and transform itself into the regular army of Kosovo,” Kryeziu said. The West’s policy toward the KLA has been ambivalent throughout the Kosovo crisis. Last year, Washington’s envoy to the Balkans, Robot Gelbard, described die KLA as a “ terrorist orga­ nization.” Germany carried it on a list of banned groups. There even were allegations that the KLA was funding its struggle through links with crime and drug syndicates, although rebel leaders strenuously deny that G ra n d is now London........$567 Paris.^:.......$692 Amsterdam....$620 Frankfurt.....$715 Brussels.... ..$678 All fares are round-trip: Taxnot included.

As CDC and college health officials conduct further research to look for the reasons, they recommend that stu­ dents consider getting vaccinated against meningococcal meningitis. A $60 vaccine would prevent about three-fourths of the cases that occur among college students. Dr. MarJeanne Collins, director of health services at the University of Pennsylvania, said June 1 at the annual meeting of the American College Health Association; Though the disease is rare. Collins said it is devastating to the students, families and campuses affected. "Anyone that's had ... to talk to a parent who has just yesterday had an active, healthy college student, who today is informed that that student is dead, really feels the tragedy of this illness," she said Dr. Michael Bruce, an epidem iologist at the CDC. reported that a study of 83 reported m eningitis cases S erling U ^ ^ “Anyone that’s had to talk to a parent who has just yesterday had an active, healthy col­ lege student, who today is informed that that student is dead, really feels the tragedy of this illness.” , — Marjeanne Collins, director o f health services at the University of Pennsylvania ing in dormitories. That compares with a rate of 1 case per 100,000 for 18to 22-year-olds nationally, and a slightly lower rate of 0.7 cases per 100,000 for college undergraduates overall. The findings reinforced an analysis by Johns Hopkins University School of Public Health researchers, published recently in The Journal o f the A m erican M edical Association, that said college students who live on campus face greater risk of meningitis infections than other stu­ dents. That study prompted the ACHA to renew a 1997 recom­ mendation that all college students consider getting vacci­ nated against meningococcal disease. “Both of these studies support the recommendation that colleges educate and inform students about the disease and provide access to the vaccine,” Collins said. The most common meningococcal disease is menin­ gitis, an inflammation of the membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord. Early sym ptom s include fever, severe headache, nausea, vomiting, lethargy, stiff neck and rash. Antibiotics can be effective, but treatment must begin immediately. About one in 10 people who get the illness die, or about 300 people a year nationally. About 10 per­ cent of those who survive are left with brain damage, kid­ ney failure, hearing loss or loss of limbs. Of about 3.000 cases a year nationally, 125 to 175 afflict college students and 15 to 20 students die each year, according to public health estimates. The researchers said results are expected this fall from a more detailed study of students’ lifestyles that will examine whether factors such as living situations, participation on sports teams, alcohol consumption or tobacco use affect meningococcal disease risk.
