Calgary Transit still off-track
Alternative travel options out of Students' Union's reach
2001-03-01

Twenty-five hundred new parking stalls are now available around the university to ease parking congestion brought on by the Calgary Transit strike.

"We've gained access to the park and ride at the C-train parking lot at the Brentwood LRT station and beside McMahon Stadium," said University of Calgary Director of Ancillary Services Peter Fraser. "We've also established the single entry program of a dollar for all the pay lots [for cars with three or more people]."

Mexico moves towards democractic peace
Zapatista ideology makes may for dramatic changes to Mexico's social structure
2001-03-01

Column - Against a jungle backdrop with a pipe and a ski mask, a lone ranger stands poised to write a new chapter in Mexico's history.

Due to the efforts of Sub-comandante Marcos, two weeks of armed conflict seven years ago has become a "revolution" poised to achieve historic gains for Mexico's native population. Through brilliant political posturing and an uncanny ability to manipulate and control the media, Marcos fashioned an internationally-known revolutionary force, the Zapatistas of the Mexican state of Chiapas.

Dinos maul UBC in conference final
2001-03-01

I wonder what it's like to play against the Dinos women's volleyball team. When the opposition lines up and looks across the floor, are they scared? Does it hurt when one of Krista Kinsman's bullets hits them right in the head? What's the point of playing the Dinos at all? They usually beat you, always outclass you and they have fun doing it.

Last weekend, it was the University of British Columbia Thunder-birds who had the honour of playing the Dinos. The result? They lost. They dropped two straight games, lost their shot at the Conference Championship and lost any hope for a good seed at the National Championships in Winnipeg next weekend. All there was left for the T-birds to do on Friday night was console themselves while their Calgary counterparts celebrated their first Canada West title since 1994.

Great Gatsby's seamy underbelly
Angel's Trumpet studies Fitzgerald and Sayre's troubled relationship
2001-03-01

Drawing from one's own diary is typical for any writer. Lifting juicy bits from someone else's book of secrets is something else.

Famed writer F. Scott Fitzgerald did both, with incredibly inspiring and depressing results. His challenging marriage to the flamboyant and intensely creative Zelda Sayre provided fodder for volumes of his literature. Having access to her talented writing didn't hurt.
