The first group investigated the use of fertiliz- ers by the local school dis- trict. They first conducted research on the type of fertil- izers used, their costs, and associated concerns. The supplier was identified as Spruce Capitol Feeds, a local store. The group refined their search by interviewing the supplier in regards to proce- dures and safety of fertilizers. To find alternatives, the group talked to REAPS. Compost turned out to be an alternative, available for schools and the university to use in place of fertilizers. REAPS also had an information guide on the use of compost as fertilizer. The group compiled this informa- tion in a letter sent to one school, the school district office, and the PG. Citizen. This information was received very well. Too add to a great last year, recycling in the UNBC Residences has returned! This group was willing to give up their weekends to carry out the recycling program in Res. To add to the excitement they have organized a Composting program too...WOW! Things just couldn't get better. Each Ks | room has blue boxes; pick up rotations, and a recyclable sheet with all of the things on it that are recyclable. With all of this going on the group still had time to promote through posters and presentations at floor meetings in Res. There was a trial compost that lasted till the end of October, and now is taking full force. Recycling has been carried out the whole semester. If there is anyone out there that wishes to help out for the remainder of the year or even start lending a hand for winter semester... Contact Howie 563-3953 or Silke 649-0194. Enjoy the exam period! i $ This map shows the locations of all the recycling facilities in Prince George, including locations where items such as cardboard and paper can be recycled.

But now I'd like to present the Top Stories for whatever day this is. | don’t know what day it is because | lost my Saddam Hussein 365 Excuses for Tricking Weapons Inspectors Daily Desk Calendar. We now go to our coverage of the War on Terror where six linguists were discharged from the CIA Intelligence Centre. They were let go when top mil- itary brass determined that they were playing for the other team. No they weren't spies, it was something more heinous...they were gay. The six were students of Arabic, the most important language in the War on Terror and comes at the end of a lengthy and expensive recruitment campaign by the CIA, FBI and American Military. The US Army defended their firing for breaking the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’ policy of the military, say- ing that there campaign posters are abundantly clear about their rules on sexual ori- entation. 1 WANT YOU’ “BUT NOT IN THAT WAY This has raised several key questions. First of all should they be given separate bar- racks? If a gay linguist pro- vides intelligence that saves your life, does that make you gay? Startling questions, especially with the release of a new study says that gay sex in Canada is on the upswing. For example, if there was a room in 1976 where 2 women were having sex, today in that sane room there would be 30 women. Which begs the quas- tion...where is that room? The same study says that the num- ber of homosexuals in Caneda is increasing. And by the year 2032, homosexuals will ccm- prise 150% of Canada’s popu- lation. To put that in simpler terms that is 3 out of every 2 people. Still on the topic of sex, Durex Condoms has released its ninth annual Global Sex Survey where Canada has placed 4th in the average times we get it on category (just behind France, The Netherlands, and Denmark). 15 000 people from 100 coun- tries were asked about several sexual issues. Topping the list of turn-ons in France was sexy lingerie, which placed a close second in Canada just behind arriving at the Tim Horton’s right when the fresh Tim Bits come out. The most interesting question was how long do you go for? Canada was 2nd at an average 28.5 minutes. The number one spot went to the US where Americans could go for a half-hour; 2 minutes of love-making and 28 minutes of bragging about it. Now back to the real news. A teenager wielding a knife took his sister and 19 other children hostage at his former school and held them for a $1.6 million Cdn. ransom until he was overpowered by a plain clothed police officer delivering a pizza. The teen reportedly became suspicious when he was informed that if the pizza didn’t arrive in 30 minutes, he would be shot by a sniper. Well that is all for this issue. Tune in to Entertainment?
