Service may be supplanted by a Trimet route between campus and Pioneer Square, with bus passes

by Sarah DiSabatino II sports editor
ASLC Executive Council met Monday to
review plans lo disconrinue Lewis & Clark's
Raz shunlc service and insrcad offer Trimer
bus p:,.sscs. LC Vice Prcsidenr and General
• Counsel David Ellis Im been working wirh

area, however, would discon· tin u c
altogether.
.. Public rransporcation to Palatine Hill
sucks," said Ellis. He proposed <ha, the likdj­
hood of this happening by ncx, year w:,.s not
very high, "about 30 pen:cnr" he estimated,
because LC will insist on a Trimer sef"\•icc
comparable ro rhe current Raz schedule and
route.
If Trimer doc, agree. LC will c;incd mosr
Raz.services :md offer a free Trim('t bus p:1ss co
every sruden,. faculry member and staff. 11,c

mer, and wouJd be paid by tuirion and the
funds from m1dcn1 parking passes from <he
same budger rhat now goC$ to the Raz. Bon
Apcrit and Skyline workers wouJd also receive
passes.
"Haw<horne would open ·up." said VP of
Srudent Academic Affitirs Charlie Morgan
('08), on the prospect of unlimired access ,o
PonJa.nd's bus system. J f ,he service was es­
sentially free-or already paid for-then stu­
dents would be less likely 10 use er.ts ond more
likely to visir populor dcstinarions on bod,
sides of the Willamenc. At least, that is the
thinking behind <he proposal. One neighbor­
hood, however, would become praccically un­
reachable wirhour the shurde.

many LC studcnrs a.nd fuculry. Trimer caanor
run buses over the Sellwood Bridge because
Multnomah Counry decreased <he wcighr re­
striction on the aging, srruc,umlly unsound
bridge from 32 rons 10 IO rons in 2004. Ellis
acknowledged rhar many studcnrs and fucul<y
have loc:r,ed ro <he Sellwood neighborhoods
and <har some arc dependent on the Sdlwood
shurdc, but he said <hat ir would be unfair and fiscally irresponsible of rhc col­

pr1111;1r, ... Associate Professor of Law john Kroger is throwing his hat in the 2008 Or­
egon Attorney General race. Kroge1; a Texas-native, earned degrees from Har­
vard and Yale after serving in an elite special op-erations unit of the Marines.
As a specialist in criminal law, Kroger has prosecuted mafia bosses and Enron
executives. The 4 I -year-old Democrat sat down with the Pioneer Log to discuss
his candidacy and his experience at Lewis & Clarie.
rL: What fed you to LC?
JK: I was :i mafia prosecutor in Ne:w
York and I had so many cases. I never
had a chance to rake vacations. I h:1d ;a
trial in which ,he defcndanr plead guilry
ar the last minute and it was supposed
co be 3 scven .. week 1ri:1I. So I boughc a
$300 rrck hybrid bike ond I rode across
rounrry. Al; I headed ou1 west, I fell in
love with Pordand and Oregon. Lewis
& Clark had a job opening for a crimi•
nal I.aw experr right at Lhc momc.·nt that
J was doing it.
How will your experience at LC
help you tn the position of Attorney
General?
Teaching is just about comrnunicat~
ing. h'.s very similar ro politiC'.s. Your job
is to rry to communicate.- wh:.'U you c:.are
about and why and hopefully engage in
an educ:uion:ll process with chc voters.
I listen a lor and I learn something at
every single evt-m I've done. If you shut
up long enough ond lisre11 ro people.
yo1.1 will learn a lor. l really think rhar
cduenrion should be tl1c model of what
democracy should be like.
You'\"C attended so,nC very elite
schools-namely Yale and Haivard.
How dO<S LC compare to those insti­
tutions~
A lor of rhe people rim helped ere•
aced the modern l:tw schoo1 were rc­
:<Ctiog to things they didn't like about
places like Harvard and that ethos still
cJrries over. \Y/c'rc trying to make -an at•
mosphere whe.re we're all trying to learn
together as oppose<\ 10 on au1 horiry fig­
ure: lecturing to a group of srude1ltS who
sir chere quietly. lc's a less authoritarian
model of education. And the srudc1m;
tbcmsdve.'i :ue much more diverse. Ac a
school like Harvard L1w School, thesru­
dents arc overwhelmingly upper-middle
dass; ir's a very privileged group. A1
Lewis & Cl•rk, we have ltids whose par•
ems are lawyers, but we also have people who arc rh<.! fil'!>r rnembcr:i, of their
fu.milics to go to college. People
Jon'r take law school for gr.uuc<l
here. ll1cre arc ftwer pcoplt· here
who say "I didn't know what to do,
so I came ro bw school."
81tsi11ess1ueek recently rated
rortland the third most polluted
city in the United States. You\·c
sald duu one or you.r top priori•
tics as Anomey Gener.al would
be to reduce pollution. How will
you do that~
h'5" funny: I think mosc Orego­
nians think we're doing a gn:at job
on the environrnen1. And yet, the
truth is we arc doing a very poor
job on making sure rhac che envi­
ronment doesn't gee trashed. 7h:n
racing dn-esn't shock m('. 1hat rar­
ing is what h:lppcns wht-n you ,ake
your eye orf the b•II. We puc tough
cnvironmcmal laws on chc books
and we let people break them nil
che rime. llu:rc was a company in
Northwest rorrhnd (Blncklinc,
Inc) char was dumping chromium,
which causC"S cancer and kidnt-y
fitilurc, into che Portland sewer sys­
tem ond they were caughr by rhe
government 61 rimes and ycr it just
kept happening. That's the kind
of thing ,ha,, if we ca1d, some­
one once, we should give thern a
fine ::tnd a ,v.1.ming. and if we catch
them twice, we should give chem
a huge fine and i( we c::uch them
three times, we should put chem in
prison.
One of you.r goals is to 6ght
meth more aggres.,ivcly. How do
you plan to do that?
I am a former narcotics prosecu­
tor. so T bclit~•c we should go after
big drug deolets and lock 'cm up.
bur the truth is you con't make any
progress on this issue unless you hnv¢ good drug crcatmtnl. \Y/e are
45rti in the n3tioo in terms of .access
to drug trcaunenr; we arc righ1 a.r
the borrom and rhat's why we have

When I 6rst visited Lewis & Clork. I asko-d (',3mpus
Sa&cy bow many rnpcs aod scxu,f asS3ulrs had been ~­
poncd ln che las, year. 1l1cy told me cha, they bad none

most traditional de6nicion of rape) ro be somerhing worth
reporting. They do noc include any other form of forced,
non-consensual s.cxual acrivily in chrir annual crime report
According co :t sexual assault advocate whO is -a.lso an cm­
ploy,:e of the school, sexual assault happens frt"luendy on
chis campus, :md the victims are often coo .:afraid to report
it.
Over full break. I become part of chis overlooked st3•
1istic. A seemingly charming junior whom I have known
for• while became forceful and violent during a soma! en­
counrer, which I had initiated. We both had been drinking.
though it secm,-d he• linlc more ,han I. When he bqr,,n ro
cau.« me physiC:ll pain, I rold him I wanrcd ro scop. and be
ignored mt. holding rnc in pbc" a.nd, :u times. hindering
my abilit)' ro breath. l was terrified aad ovcrwhdmed by chc
bck of conuol I had in his room. 1 dido', feel 3S though I
was capable of exiting the siruarion until he was vomiting
in chc bathroom. and I bad an opportunicy ro ger dressed
and leave. Alter ,bis happened, I had no idea wlm 10 do, because I
naively choui;hr tbat sexual "--""'"'' didn't occ:ur on rhis cam•
pu,. I felc as cl,ough all of chis wos my fuulc, and if L had
more respect for myself, this deceptive ,nd dangerous fellow
woulJ no[ have: rre:ued me this way. I also thought thar no
one would believe me, since I had also been drinking and J
had chosen co go to hi, room. I was bmiscd •nd sore Md feh
romJJy isolated. Soon. friend< rold n>< that wh,, he did was
,vrong. even t_hoogh he cried to pa.<S blame on ro me for initi•
ating Lhecncoumer i.n the firsr place.
Larer, I learned ,b,r then: wcr< ar lcost a half-dozen ocher

Republicans of LC, unite!
by Myles Creed// staff writer
rue you a Republican? lf you mend Lewis & Clark.
you're probably not. Arc you conservative? If you aucnd LC,
ic's not likdy. Do you support Prcsidenr Bush righr now? If
you attend LC ... okay. noc even Cod sup pores Bush righr
now. In all seriousness. Republicans or even just modcraccs
ar LC may focl left om of the conversation. It is lmponant m
remember chat although we enjoy our liberal haven, we must
remember chac to :Ldva.ncc the LC intcllecuml cooununiry
and help le-.td ourcouacry in the riglu direction. WC' must be
open to all sides of tht conversation.
LC srudents. in general, arc very accepting, toleranc and
open people. \Y/e accrpc all ra«-s, clhnicitics, Sf.'Xualities, rcli4
gions (ro • point), bcighcs and weighu. We love hippies, pot•
smokers. Alaskans, HawJfoms. Californians (10 2 point-kid•
ding!), Minnesomn:, and l~nians. ll1e only people we can',
sc.""'Cm co st:ind :arc Republic:ms. Despite admission,s' quest to
crca.te more polidcal diversity among smdcms, LC remains
m•erwhdmingly, and I would say irrimtingly, liberal. Accord­
ing ro f-accbook. the most credible of aU so,irces, some 41 of
LC srudentS lisccd their political views"' Libeml or Very Lib­
eral, while jusr 2% of LC srudencs listed chemsdvcs as Con­
servacivc or Very Conservative. With roughly 2.000 under·
gr.1<ls at LC, I would guesstimate cha, there ,re abour forcy
solid conscfv:ltivcs at chis school. And even t.hough these re•
sulrs :ire wildly-umcienrific, LC probably hos more Jamaicans
than people who believe ,he New York Times is too liberal.
So as .t 001\scrvncive, wouldn't you fed our of place?
No one should have co feel ouc of place hcce. Even though
LC is ovcrwhclmingly liberal, we mu.st be accommodating ro
our conservative students. A few days ~go in my Exploration
and Discovery class, there was n slightly heared discussion
abour the Bible (like •ny discussion of the Bibi< is concro•
versy-frcc). I heard almosr noching bu, one-sided criticism
including what I reali1..cd was coming from my orifices. late.r
on, another smde.nc tried m explaln why the Bible L~ good ro have as a reference co those who have no moral compass.
Their idea was hardly oudandish aad nowhere near conser­
vacivc, and yet I saw the idea opposed from every angle. I
rc:alizcd myself that not only was the ~rndcnr's ideology cor•
rca, but that someone dsc should be speaking up, suppon•
i11g I h<:ir hyporhesis. Unfom..10:ucly, class ,vas ouc before I
could say anything, but I r~Ji1.cd chat this onc~sidcd view
was nor limited ro chis classroom. 1l1ese Liberal ide:is Jrc all
over campus. I've overheard conversations on why people
who voluncec:r for the milirary are meaningless pawns of rhc
miliC2ry•indu.c:1ri:al mttchine and claims that Hillary lS more
con.scrwrive than the average American.
LC is roo one-sided. Crowing up in Alaska, where lib­
erals are-as common as palm mes. I fd, like the underdog
fighting against che Republican establishment. Here, I feel
bored and like o clone of everyone else.
If you look deeper, I chink you will find that many LC
students feel the same way. If you look at the Faccbook sra­
Ust.ics again, you will stt rhal eight pc.rc<:nr of tl1e student
body listed them.selves as moderate and o.nocber forty percent
did nor lisr their politic:al ,1iew~ :Lt all. llteir motives for do•
ing so :ire not concrcu:., bur I d1ink a lor of smdems don't lisr
1heir poliricil views because they don't wam to label tht'm·
sel\'es. Yes, mo.st of chem arc probably liberal, buc I chink
they also sec chcmsel"cs a, rolemnr of all sides of Lhe debate.
If we would just listen co all sides, I chi11k our school could be
much more open and diverse community.
I believe, t.har on the national stage, listening 10 both sides
is also whar is needed. Until 2006, our counuy was living
under Bush and his rubber-scamp Congress, and Dcmoem,s
seemed like wimps for not sranding up against ,he CO[\ ·11,.
De.mocrars were not the wimps; the Republicans w·c.rc. ·n,e
Republicans did n6thing buc listen ro special inrcrcsr.s and
cater ro their )Vealchy conservative constituents. Now the ca­
bles have rurned, and many Americans wane the Democrats to me. I would report il in a hcarrbcat, bur 1 am sorry 10 say
cl,a, I om roo afraid. I doo', fed complccdy comfortable on
chis campus, and I don'r wanr 10 be afraid of further harass­
ment from ,bis man or his friends. I cbfok chac we'd like co
believe char we tr('3.t victims of sexual as:s~ulr as though they
arc compktdy free of blame. burl am not confidenr thar I
can c<posc my.<df without being ofraid of die excess anxi­

-Marchew 7:5
R.,ymond Burke, the Archbishop of Si. Louis, made
hc,dlincs in 1he 2004 election by sayiog that he wo,dd
dc.nr communion co then Prcsidenri:11 Candidate and pro­
choice Catholic Senator John Kerry. He now "3)'S char he
would deny communion 10 Republican Presidential C11,di­
datc fo;mer Mayor Rudy Giuliani, who is also pro-choic..
For myself, and doubtlessly other C.,tholics. this smacks
of hypocrisy, and a d"ngerous direction for the Catholic
Church. '
Archbishop Burke acts as if ,his was rhe firsr rime tha1
a Catholic polirkian has gone against chc teachings of the
Church. The late Pope John Pa,d II publicly declared in
2003 that the lroq \Xl,r did not metr the conditions for a
just war. :md char war is a defeat for hum:1nity. Pope Bene­
dict also opposes the lr3q War, and agn..-es that it is ag:iinst
the Churches teaching on Just War Theory. Are politicians
who supported, and c.ontinuc co suppon the w·.u, aJlowed
to receive communion?
This L~ jus, one example of the narrowness of' the pro-life
agenda thar is put (9rw:ird by d'le religious riglu in Amerio.
I do not argue with the Archbishop chat rhere a.re f.v coo
maoy abonioas in America. and tha1 a Carholic politician
most cxplafo why he would go against the teachings of a
fui1h that he daims ro believe in, But wby docs the pro-lifr
agenda Stop there. Should politici,ns who vored against
the expansion of rhe Scare Children$ He:1lrh l,'lsurnnec Pro­
gram be offered communion? Should poliricians who .. sup­
porr cur.s in programs that aide the poor receive commu•
nion? Shou.ld politicians who su.ppon the death penalty
receive communion (also agn.inSt Church teaching,)? And for 1har maner. why do Catholics who arc on,.
death row eligible to receive communion? There has /
been a long .. sranding rr:1di1 ion of che Church visit-~
ing and giving spirirual guidance ro prisoners, in­
cluding those who arc on death row. These prison­
ers arc eligible for communion. even if Oley arc nor
rcpemaru of their sins.
This hypocrisy does nor stop with the Catho­
lic Church. lhc Reverend Richs.rd Citik i.s a
vocal and outspoken critic of aborrion and
gay marriage. But be received fire from

Portland's weather: less than ideal
by Sam Stigler// webmaster
Back in my senior year of high school, when I was try•
ing to decide which coUcge to attend, I held off on my final
decision until literally the last possible minut~ I had my
choices narrowed down to rhe University of Michigan and
LC, but my big worry abour Michigan was rha1 i1 h•d been
really. really cold when I visired back in January or Febru­
ary. (Keep in mind, the dt'Cisions were and arc due May I,
:rnd when I visited I had complcccly forgotten ro pack my
cold wearher gear when I flew from Los Angeles 10 Detroit.)
By rhc: rim·e l gor around to vi.siting L&C. it was a week be­
fore the deadline -you can imagine, right as summer was
in the air. as people were scrambling to do Char last-minute
s1·udying for finals. And having l(ved in southern CaJjfornia
for mos, of my ljfe a,1d was almo,,-complctdy ignorant of
how drastic changes in weather can be in other pares of this
counrry, decided thar I wanrcd 10 arrcnd LC for tl1e sole
rt-.son that the campus looked absolutely beautiful when I
visiccd -lush green grass everywhere to be sc.-en on the walk
bcrwecn Tcmpletoo aod the acadentic quad; it just looked
like paradise. A friend of mine is starring his college experi­
ence at Recd thi$ year . and over the summer he
asked me what the weather's like in Portland. I
was cemprcd to lie, ro tell him ''Oh. ye:ah, Port­
land has grcar wcarher compared ro sunny Los
Aogclcs. CaJifornia. You'll love iL" However, I
cotddn'r artificially inflate his hopes like that. So 1
rnld him the truth. This goes for anyone just smrt­
ing at LC this year a., well: Enjoy tbe $1rn whj]e it
lasrs, because d1c period from Novernber through
the beginning of Wimer Break (and possibly the
first few weeks back after Winier Break) is go•
ing 10 be UTfER HELL. If you're not from-the
Norchwesr. you will likely see more rain than you
have ever seen before. If you have :H"1 umbrella,
chances arc it wiU be broken by heavy winds un­
less it's an iibcr-funcy one. Invest in a high-quality
rain jacket instead, Jf you live on campus, you
might find yourself going 10 the library less frc­
qucndy lace.r in the semester -it is a lot less in­
viting if you have co walk through droves of rai.n
ro get there. Combine all of that with the mosr
inrensc period o( work of the entire semester. and
it doesn't paint a.n appealing picture:. -

Finding good Mexicon food in Port­
fond is tough. The corts downtown ore
hit ond miss ( ond sometimes the moss
feels like o 24-hour virus) ond cutesy lo­
col choin Chol Chol Chol offers more
enthusiosm thon outhenticity. One unas­
suming restouront, however, never foils
to deliver omozing Mexicon fore. Thot
restouront is Lo Sirenito, o no-frills bos­
tion of Mexicon goodness.
Lo Sirenito sits quietly on 17th Ave.
between Joke's Ploce ond Sky box Pub
ond Grill, two of Sellwood' s seediest
sports bors. At Lo Sirenito ('the little
mermoid,' in English), drunken fans,
families, stoned college students ond
hipsters mingle, reoding the hond-writ­
ten menu ond solivoting ol the colorful
pictures of the dishes. After ordering ot
the cash register, diners.scatter through­
out the sparse dining room, settling in
stiff wooden booths or on hord plostic
choirs. There's not much to look ot. The
pole pink walls ore mos~y bore, sove
for o small poster of la Virgen de Gua­
dalupe and o round, plostic mold of o
chivolrous Mexican hunter in o loindoth
and feather headdress holding o limp
woman in his rippling orms.
After toking in the stork surround­
ings, diners' eyes zero in on the open
kitchen. The young cook feels the gaze
of several hungry poirs of eyes ond
speeds up his pace. He assembles o
soggy burrito, drowning in o delicious
red souce of unknown ingredients and
topped with gooey melted cheese. In-side, the burrito ooze, with refried
bean,, ,wirling with cheddor chee,e
ond the meat of your choice. Be sure
to choose your meat carefully; while
the beef is surpri,ingly tender and well
seosoned for o $4 burrito, the quality
of the chicken range, from mediocre
to sketchy.
Like everything at Lo Sirenita, the
burritos ore o steal, starting at S2.75
for o simple bean ond cheese burri­
to and costing no more than $5. For
only $6, you can get the burrito meal,
which includes a monstrous plate of
rice and beons. Six dollars will al•o
get you the super nachos, a large
plate· of crisp, homemade chips, cov­
ered in corne asada, guocamole,
and sour cream, but locking enough
cheese to fully cover the dish.
If you' re serious about cheese or
low on co,h, order the giant $2 que­
•odillo. While the cheese tapers off at
the tortilla's end in most quesodillos,
at Lo Sirenito, it oozes out the sides
to merge with dollop• of sour cream
and ,olso.
You will leave lo Sirenito feeling
sick, but not because the ingredients
ore bod or because the food wo,
poorly prepared-you simply will
hove eaten too much;-.:,nd you will not
regret it. '
La Sirenilo Is localed at 8029 SE 17th
Ave. in Sellwood and also ot 2817 NE

When you move off-compus, o whole new world opens up.
No more worrying about RAs (er, CLAs), no more being sex­
iled by your roommate, no more being· kept up until 3 :00
a.m. by people "chillin"' in your hall, and no more Boni Bui
the world of not being restricted to eating three times o day
con be scary. These 10 simple steps will help you make the
most of your newfound freedom.
! If you don't hove o car make sure you ore within
wolking/biking distance of o grocery store. There is
no way you ore going to be able to offord the money or the
time ta eat three restaurant meals o day so be prepared to hit
up the grocery stores.
! Shop by meal. Think of what you eat. If your thing
is Caesar salads with ketchup on top for lunch, then
make sure you gel the nece.sory ingredienb to make them
when you go to the store.
I Buy what's on sale. Organic grocery stores ore amaz­
ing but costly. If you ore going to go to the Market of
Choice or another similar store, get sale items. They ore usu­
oily marked with a bright label of some sort.
,4ll One word: microwave. It will change the way you
~ see the world. And the way you .eat.
a Snacks. Snoch ore key. They ore key at home when
~ you don't feel like spending on hour making o meal
('cause you won't). And they come in handy when you ore
hungry in doss. I Bring food to compus. If you
live in Southeast or equally for
from school, chances ore you don't
go boc,k home unless you hove o lot of
time between classes. If you happen to
find yourself starving and on campus
later !hon 4 p.m. you ore preHy much
screwed; the Troilroom and Dovecote
ore dosed, and you probably don't
wont to pay $4 for a pre..node sand­
wich at Moggie's. This is why you
make a sandwich at home and bring it
with you to school. Problem solved.
'I Keep it simple. Sure, some of
us ore regular Emeril Logoss' r
but most of us don't wont to spend five
hours preparing o goose pate. The
alternative is boiling some water and
putting some pa51a in for 10 minutes. Simple and quick. This brings me to
my next point.
The three Ps: Pizza, pesto and
popcorn. Easy to make, fun to
eat.
I Don't cook at the some iime as
your roommates. Chances ore
your kitchen is preHy miniscule and
three people trying to use the stove at
the same time just doesn't wor·k. Wait
until ofter your roommates are done
in the kitchen and then make your
move.
,ea Wash your dishes immediately
il~ alter using them; otherwise,
they will pile up as high as the Eiffel
Tower in less than a week. _l_Q _______________________ •)j1jj1j,l§ijj,1·- .... ________ t_h_e_P_io_n_e_e_r_L_o_g_,_o_c_1_o_be_r_I9 ... ,_2_00_1

Mostly A's: You should 90 to Stumptown Coffee Roosters-­
hip, trendy ond o domn fine cup of coffee. Fairly sterile
and the stoff is unfriendly, but then ogoin, so ore you. Put
your eorbuds in, drink your coffee and block out the world.
Located downtown at 128 SW 3rd Ave. •
Mostly B's: You should check
out Anno Bonnanos. The sto-ff
is friendly enough to top your lattes wit~ steamed milk
hearts and the ambiance is young and homey. Downstairs
is on 1 B~plus smokers' basement, which is rare-and
maybe illegal-in Oregon. Here you'll find a variety of
customers and music, each more interesting than the lost.
Located in Northwest at 1214 NW 21st Ave.
Mos~y C's: You belong
at the Fireside Coffee
Lodg&-a 24--hour coffee shop located inconveniently on
SE 13th and Powell. The aesthetics ore charming and ,
woodsy, like a great Northwestern cabin with a grand
fireplace to boot. The service and music are trashy
and posse, adding a certain charm that is probably on
acquired taste. Customers
range from old hippy
mountaineers to tweOked
out moth-heads looking
for on all-night haven. uustAATIOl<$818'l.YII.OC!<

The only thing fomily.friendly obout
the Acropolis is the fomily-bred cottle
used for their fomous steoks. Featur­
ing a full menu, long hours and, of
course, the hottest strippers in town,
"The A crap" has carved out for itself
the highest tier in two genres of Port­
land entertainment: steak and titties.
From the outside, the steakhouse
loob like any other-with the excep­
tion of the giant VegaHtyle sign em­
blozoned with "steak house plus,"
accompanied by a scantily dad, illu­
minated vixen. The spacious interior
accommodates a lot of customers and
produces a busy but not overcrowded
atmosphere.
The lighting is dim, but not dim
enough to pretend like-I can't see the
creepy guy at the cigarette machine who is awkwardly trying not to Rirt
with me. Of course, I am not com­
plaining. I am in a strip dub. Nev­
ertheless, it is not on intimidating
place for women. There are obnox•
ious drunk people but the efficient
and beefy, no pun intended, secu­
rity team keeps things mellow and
fun for everyone.
The menu offers both breakfost
and dinner options with nothing
over $10. I ordered the $3 sirloin.
Five ounces of beef served with a
heap of homestyle fries, a slice of
Texas toast and a side of A 1 souce
was more than enough grub to keep
me satisfied.
If you want a little more for the
gut, go for the $5 house sirloi_n and
three ounces more beef. Their burg­
ers are popular loo, and choices
like the two-pound Colossal Burger
make decisions difficult.
The only dissatisfodion I heord
was when a neighbor complained of
gristle in his rib eye, but he said that
the Ravor was far from disappoint­
ing. Cafeteria seoting contributed
to the cosual aura, complemented
by the friendly and outgoing danc­
ers. Far from the Aoshy prima don­
nos of other adult Portlond venues,
these women play their own music and were even seen
grabbing a bite at one
of the tables.
A full bar with an
overwhelming 51 beers
on top provides more
options for pitcher­
sharing than I could .
shoke a fistful of ones
at. Among the drums of
bland mass-produced American fore
were several microbrew options so
that even the/ickiest of beer a6ciona­
dos could 6n a fovorite.
If strip dubs are not your thing, you
can always call in an order to go for
25 cents more. Lottery games line the
walls, and a television with the day's
sports also provide potentially less sin­
ful distractions. By for one of the most
unusual and unique experiences, the
Acrop will continue to hold your fas­
cination for numerous visits to come.
In nowhere but Portland is the steak
so phenomenal and the venue so titil­
lating.

In my head, concert food hos
always occupied o ploce in the
"greasy and overpriced" catego­
ry of edibles somewhere between
airport food and the stuff you 6nd
in high school cafeterias. This is
food you eat only because you
hove no other choice. Fortunate­
ly, the reality at many Portlond­
oreo shows is very different from
this dire imoge. Whether you're
attending o big show or hanging
out at one of the city's smaller live
music venues, chonces ore you'll
be able to 6nd restaurant-quality
food ot o reosonable price.
The Wonder Cafe, located be­
low the Wonder Ballroom, is a
cozy, romontic spot with o classy
menu. The choices are limited
and somewhat 'expensive, but
the quality is excellent. The ven­
ue's small size mokes it crowded
on nights when there ore shows,
but if you're hungry, this food is
worth the wait.
Though the Aladdin Theotre
hosts oll-oges shows, Its accom­
panying reslouront, The Lamp, is
open only lo the 21-plus crowd.
However, if you ore of age, a
wide selection of beverages and
• food items moy moke this o worth­
while destination. From 3:00-6:00
p.m. and for on hour after shows,
they.offer o S4 dollar menu.
Ringler' s Pub, beneath the
Crystal Bo\lroom, is a 1hird out•
standing choice. With its friendly
atmosphere ond an emphosis on
locally produced ingredients, this
is o fine ploce to grab o meal be­
fore your show. Unfortunately, it
closes to minors ofter 9:00 p.m.
on weeknights and at 7:00 p.m.
on Friday through Sundoy, which
moy be somewhat inconvenient ii
the concert isn't until later. _1 __ 2 ____________________ ....i_•llehel•@•h•i·------------L-he_· _P_io_n_e_e_r_L_o .. g_,_o_c_1o_b_e_r_19_._2_00_7

Portland differ only in nome, eoch one has o cer­
tain something that keeps ii affoal in the cutthroat
world of fresh produce and pubescent bog boys.
Discover what Portland's supermarket world has
to offer. New Seasons
1214 SE Tacoma St.
8:00 o.m. to 10:00 p.m.
The first stop on the shuttle ofter the Sellwood Bridge, New Seasons is
about a 25,minute ride from Templeton. One or its most striking charac­
teristics is lls deep commitment lo local, sustainobfe practices. Last year
during the Friday Forum (a weekly forum centered on topics that effect
Portland), New Seasons president Lisa Sedlor spoke or such a commit­
ment ond how it was New Season's central tenet. Though their prices
may be higher than, soy, Sareway, one con be sure !hot New Seasons
products ore fre,h and local. II looking for quality produce, New Sea­
sons is the place.
Zupon's
7221 SW Mocadom Ave.
7:00 o.m. to 9:00 p.m.
If you're looking for something healthy and don't wont to risk
life ond limb by crossing the Sellwood Bridge (with o safety rot­
ing of two out of 100), Zupan's is the place for you. Located on
the #East lo SellwoodN shuttle route, Zupon's Market is about a
15-minule ride away from Templeton. Though the pricing of the
artisan chocolate, fine wines and other ubiquitous items of indul­
gence ore rather sleep, Zupon's Rora! selection is worth the visit.
Fresh<ut and purchased from local and regional growers, they
make wonderful gilts and come with a variety of optional vases.
With the demise of Burlingame Flower shop, it's nice lo know that
there ore other locations where you can fill up Cupid's quiver of
arrows.
Whole Foods
1210 NW Couch St.
8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. -..
WHOLE FOODS + M +
Located conveniently next to Powell's and Mio Gelato, Whole Foods is
about o 10 lo 15-minute walk from Pioneer Square. Due to the corpora­
tion's size, located in the United Stales, Canada and the United Kingdom,
this organic supermarket often has good deals on otherwise pricey items.
However, that is not its biggest strong suit. Its strength is in its pastries:
namely the cheap yet delicious fruit tarts. If you've OD'd on Powell's and
need a respite, or are downtown and want a change from Voodoo Dough­
nuts, Whole Foods is the place lo gel your sugar fix.
Trader Joe's

9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. -~
Cheap booze that doesn't reek of antifreeze or wood alcohol hos
been the goal of alchemists for a millennia. In Northwest and Southeast
Portland, a philosopher's stone can be found at last: #Two-buck Chuck"
and Trader Joe's. Though now $3 a bottle, Charles Shaw merlot is still
the wine of choice for many. For those who are under 21, Trader Joe's
offers fantastic brand soups, cereals and other food items at a reason­
able price. The apicy warmth of their Ginger Snaps oon melt away even
the mast stubborn worries. 13

This record emerged from Wolf'> experience
wirh love. "The major key theme is derived from

\Xlhen asked if he always tries co work around a
theme. he said, "'~fhe cenrr.11 theme only comes

both Wolf and the audience were off oa a wave of poppy

Once lost, there was no coming back. \'(/arching

Artist M.K. Guth delivers red shoes
MultidiS<:iplin:uyanisr M.K. Cuch thinks
all of us can become part of an art project.
Cuch came to campus rn discuss her mixed­
media visual arr on Tuesday. Oct. 9 as pare of

nar lecrure series. The
lecture was marred by
technic•I problems
early. as Guth could
not gci her DVD pre­
sentation to foncrion.
But after a chaogc of
venue. she quickly "le would be great if I made
something people could accually
experience." With this simple
thought, che Red Shoe Delivery
Service was born. the purse back
for rhc \11,1on1a.n.
Cuch was con•
cerm.-d ~bout
how the viewer
owns the, srory.
"We retell rhese
supt"rhcro sto-­
rics differently
grabbed the audience's am:ntion with he:r
dynamic work.
Guth began her alt career worlting in ce­
ramics and S<:ulpturc and hasbt-c:n expanding
her repertoire ever since. She rectndy started
exploring video and ,!so dabbles in sculprurc
and phocogrophy. "I really enjoy ,he process
of an and having co constantly develop new
skills." so.id Guth. who has called Portland
home for rhe last eight years.
-rhe artisr beg,n che lecrure by show­
ing her work thac deals with the nodon of
whac ir means m be a superhero. Guth was a
"complete comic book freak" when she was
• ltid and finds it inte,esting that superhe-·
roes become our first undersmnding of wh:u
orders our world and of wha1 is good ,nd
bad. In her 2002 video / Wam to Hold ¾mr
Hand, Guth makes her 6m attempt ac be-every rime we cell them," S,.1id Guth. ''In Lh;u­
way. we own rhem." She allows the viewer to
choose how ,hey eng.,ge in rhe scory by split­
ting U1c screen up into three boxes, each one
showing a different perspective of the story.
Guth conrinued her explonuion of the
supe.rhero world wi1h d1e video Wttkmd Gtt
Away in which cwo people dressed in B•r­
man cosrumcs interact wich each other and
the ocean while being "sruck in digital box­
es." 11,is was ,he video that really goc Cuch
thinking obout her work. "I socrccd 10 think
about whac changing a story meanc and re.al-•
izcd I was dissaris6ed wicl1 ic." said Cuch. "I
said ro my roommate at che time, 'It would
be great if I made something people could ac­
tually experience.'" With chis simple thought
che Red Shoe Delivery Service (JlSDS) was
born. Using ,he idea elm red shoes cm mkc
you anywhere, it I, 7b, \'(lizard of Oz. Gurh
n:nu:d a \'.IO, arm<..-d herself with a con of red
shoes, and hit rht strecu of N,w York. The
b.'5is of che llSDS was to give people free
rides co any locacion ,hey desired as long as
they said, "There's no place like [desired loca­
tion]." In the procc:ss, stories were exchanged
berwt-c:n Guth and the participancs. The
RSDS became extremely popubr •nd Guth
mok the project to se.veml dlffcrem exhibit~
over the world, including the United King­
dom, where Gmh learned □or to ask people
if chey wan1cd a ride bu, to offer them a lift.
"I learned chac ,,,king someone for a ride is a
derogatory rhing in the UK," said Guth:
The project expanded to become a cravd
agency, a shoe store. a mobile gallery and a
medium for performance arciSts. "llie RSDS
is always reconfiguring irself," said Guth. "Ir
is :1bout rransformarion and the experiences
people have are the material for the projec[."
Using pc..-oplc's cxpcricnCd as materiaJ for her
work continues to be the 1hcme of Gurh's
work 1oday. In her 2005 work 011r Rflp1111ul,
she asked people co write down a regret or a
wish on a piece of paper and then braided
chem all rogether to form an insralkuion.
Whether exploring the idea of whac a super­
hero is or raki.ng people on rides, Guth's work
always engages the viewer and makes them
question their role in the art prcscnrcd. Ge.Off
