  • 4 Thursday, October 171996 Features (&\z Wz&tttn (fenlmtan The Job Man Cometh DAVE BONYUN CONTRIBUTING WRITER The room is filled with smug, businessmen in suits who seem to enjoy telling people they don't have the right kind of experience. One can feel the desperation hanging in the air as people wander helplessly from booth to booth trying to find some reassurance that the thousands of dollars spent on a college education were not wasted. If this is how you envision Career Day, you may be in for a pleasant surprise. On Wednesday, October 23, from 1-4 p.m., representatives from over 70 businesses will gather in the Ramsey Center Concourse to meet students and alumni as WCU hosts its seventh annual Career Day. This is not just another employment cattle call. Jeff Bewsey, the Career Services coordinator who is arranging this year's Career Day, stressed that employment is not the event's main goal. "We see Career Day as an opportunity for students and alumni to meet and talk with various businesses from around the area. If there is a freshman who is interested in a career in financial services industry, he could go in and talk to the banks and the financial planners that are represented. By doing this he can find out what he needs to be doing in order to prepare for a career in this field." Career Day has experienced steady growth over the last seven years. Fifty-three businesses were represented at the event in 1990; over 70 are expected to show this year. A diverse group of employers will be represented, including federal government agencies, social services, investment companies, industrial distributors, computer technology companies, television, radio, financial services, and more. Western graduates are highly respected by area employers. According to Larry Hammer, a Career Services coordinator, "Businesses are attracted to WCU students because they have strong work ethics and they are well-prepared academically for work. As well, many of the employers are alumni of WCU and are looking to give back to the school." For those students who are interested in gaining practical work experience, the Career Day is an excellent opportunity to discuss co-op and internship opportunities with employers. Students who are involved in a co-op or internship are often offered employment by the same company. Students interested in finding employment at Career Day should have a resume ready to present if requested. There is a complete list of participating businesses on the Career Services Web page (http://www.wcu.edu/ cso.html) or individuals can visit the Career Services Office in room #80 McKee building. The Career Services Office is available to help students prepare resumes, polish their interviewing skills, and answer questions regarding employment Winner of WCU Essay Contest to Speak at Commencement The winner of a WCU essay contest will earn the honor of delivering that essay as an address at Western's December commencement. I Undergraduate stu- » dents are invited to enter the contest by turning in an essay of five double-spaced pages that would be suitable as a 10-minute commencement speech. The winning writer will receive a $250 prize.Students may choose to write from one of the following themes: "Citizenship in a Global Community," "The University Walk: Into the Light," or "Is the World Ready For Us?" The contest is sponsored by the University Honors Program. Essays should be turned in at the Honors Program office, located in Room G-55 in Stillwell Building, by Wednesday, Nov. 6 .For more information, contact Brian Railsback, University Honors Program director, at (704) 227-7383.

COMMENTARY BY DORI MARTIN CONTRIBUTING WRITER Tea is second only to water in worldwide beverage consumption. Studies have shown that individuals drinking five to ten or more cups of green tea daily experience an enhanced level of health protection. Why? Surprisingly, green tea contains antioxidant compounds. Tea also contains phytochemicals. Phyto or plant chemicals aren't vitamins or minerals, or nutrients in the traditional sense; they are compounds that occur in edible plants, including fruits, vegetables and cereal grains. Some experts believe that consuming more of these plant compounds may be one of the best things we can do to ward off cancer, heart disease, and even bone conditions like osteoporosis. Research is currently underway to evaluate these health benefits. It turns out that there are hundreds of phytochemicals, and some have antioxidant properties that keep the unstable molecules known as free radicals from cellular damage. Some compounds seem to prevent the formation of carcinogens and block them from reaching their targets. These anti-cancer effects are just the tip of the iceberg. For centuries, Eastern traditional medical practitioners have recommended certain foods to promote health or treat disease. They have long recognized tea, and especially green tea as a healthful beverage. Black tea (usually fermented) is the type most commonly drunk in most western nations. Green tea is consumed mainly in China and Japan. It is well established that tea and tea preparations reduce tumors in animals, but no such clearcut conclusions can be drawn with regard to cancer in humans as yet. The tongue-twisting names of antioxidant compounds in green tea are anthocyanidins and green tea polyphenols. These compounds give green tea many of the benefits of vitamins C and E. The black, green, and oolong varieties of tea come from the same plant, Camellia sinensis, and result from different processing methods. Both black and green tea have beneficial effects and may work to prevent mutation of the body's DNA and detoxify harmful agents. Some green teas available in the U. S. include Green Gunpowder, Young Hyson, Sencha, Hojichal, Jasmine (Yin Hao), and Green Tea with Roasted Rice (Genmaicha). Recently, several human and laboratory studies worldwide point to the potential health benefits from antioxidant and other compounds found in green and black teas that may play a role in the prevention of such diseases as cancer, cardiovascular disease, and cataracts. lock Up the Kids, Here Comes KISS KEVIN CASSELS STAFF WRITER On October 1-2, KISS played two sold-out shows at the Omni in Atlanta. This is their first tour since 1983 to to feature makeup, and the first since 1980 to include original members Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, Peter Criss, and Ace Frehley. The 1996-97 Worldwide Alive Tour is billed as a 20th anniversary celebration of the classic double live recording, "Kiss Alive II." The band uses the same style of lighting, pyrotechnics, and stage antics used during the 1977 tour, considered by many to be KISS's most prominent era. As soon as opening act Verve Pipe left the stage, fans erupted into a loud roar for nearly 30 minutes in anticipation of the main event. Soon, the lights went down and a giant explosion marked the beginning of "Deuce," as well as the moment many KISS fans thought they would never see. Unlike many retro rock acts, KISS did not perform any new material whatsoever, nor did they play anything from the 1979-1995 period. It was a KISS fan's dream: over two hours of nothing but classic KISS. The group performed legendary tunes such as "Detroit Rock City," "Let Me Go, Rock 'n' Roll," and "Beth," as well as old rarities such as "100,000 Years" and "ShockMe." Each member took a solo as well. KISS is not necessarily known for its rock-solid musicianship, and the solos were simple, short, and most of all, loud. However, the theme of the concert was excitement, and even though the band members are in their late 40s and early 50s, they still sounded as polished as ever, vocally and musically. During his blood-spurting bass solo, Gene Simmons flew over the Omni to the highest lighting rack on the stage, where he performed the dark and dirty "God of Thunder." Ace Frehley's guitar caught on fire and drifted away backstage before the axemaster played the classic "New York Groove" from his 1978 solo album. As expected, Paul Stanley couldn't let a night go by without making references to his crotch. "I had to sneak in the back door," screamed the band leader, '"cause I brought my pistol of passion!" KISS performed three encores in a sea of fireworks and balloons. Of course, the band ended with the 1975 anthem "Rock and Roll All Nite." Kiss' future plans remain uncertain. The idea of a reunion tour surfaced when Frehley and Criss joined the official KISS onstage at their MTV Unplugged concert. Guitarist Bruce Kulick and drummer Eric Singer are said to still be a part of KISS, though the reunion will supposedly last until December 1997. KISS has put their first studio album since 1992 on hold until the tour is over.
