Reggaie rhythms to rock hall

Messenjah, the six-member band headed by Rupert (Ojiji) Harvey on guitar and alto sax will appear for pne night only at the Badminton Hall in Nelson on Jan. 26. Doors Open at 8:30 p.m.

Reggae. When most people think of it they conjure a sound image

thick with heavy bas rhythms and a very laid back atmosphere, Heather Hutchinson of Oasis Productions Says in a news release,

“Keeping the key traditions, of their native music, Messenjah layer this reggae foundation with new- found North American elements,”

she says. “The sharp bite of rock guitar, the pungh of rap, the stinging dance grooves from high energy per- formance, will change your definition of reggae. Add to this mixture well-blended harmonies and Positive themes and you have a recipe for a packed dance floor rev-

ved to near power overload.”

Messenjah has been featured. on the sound track of the movie Cocktail with Tom Cruise and has been nominated for Reggae. The group’s latest album, Rock and Sway, was recorded at Prince’s Paisley Park Studio.

New PBS series takes different approach to turbulent 1960s

By BILL ANDERSON . CP Television Writer

LOS ANGELES (CP) — If there’s one decade that’s been overdone — on TV and everywhere else — it’s the 1960s.

Yet on Monday, PBS begins a six- hour documentary series called Making Sense of the Sixties.

The- amazing thing is — it’s

Like PBS’s triumphant series on the. Civil War, Making Sense of the Sixties takes history out of the museum and shows how it is still alive in the streets.

Wednesday for two hours each night, the series has been made with an acute awareness that the last thing anybody needs is more shots of men on the moon and the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan Show.

Ricki Green, co-executive producer of the series, says the program grew out of the notion that young people today know all the cliches of the ’60s

but “‘do not really understand what was propelling it or what the background was.’’

With that in mind, Green and co- executive producer David Hoffman began research by discussing the ’60s with kids currently in American high schools and universities.

“A lot of kids today just have simple questions," Hoffman said during an interview in Los Angeles.

«“They just-wanted to-know why people were jumping around in the Streets, not what Jane Fonda says now about what her position was then.

“This helped give us the clarity to Sort it all out."

At the same time, Hoffman and Green wanted to capture the ex- periences of the Depression-era

generation — the baby boomers’ parents, whose world seemed to come apart during the decade.

“‘We have three generations wat- ching this program,’’ Hoffman said. “There are the parents at the time, the '60s generation which has not let go of it and the younger MTV kids who don’t want to be told ‘Wow — What a time!’

“*We wanted to present it in a way that wouldn’t-cause-qny of the three generations to turn it off.’

The series is divided into six hour- long parts, each of which develops a theme.

The first and perhaps most revealing hour looks at how the seeds of the "60s were sown during the conformity and repression of the "50s.

From there, the series examines the idealism of the John Kennedy years; the rise of the counterculture; the cataclysmic year of 1968, with the Kennedy and Martin Luther King assassinations; the transition into the "70s; and finally the legacies of the "60s.

As the hours unfold, viewers are spared most of the familiar network news footage of the time in favor of home-movie reels and other rarely seen shots from little known par- ticipants.

In fact, the series pol strong

effort to get away from celebrities and famous figures in order to focus on unsung heroes and ordinary People who were caught up in the turbulence.

Gulf war movies unlikely soon

LOS ANGELES (AP) — When movies were in their infancy, Tearing Down the Spanish Flag was a hit of 1898, capitalizing on the U.S. fervor for the Spanish-American War.

The movie world has gone into battle ever since, depicting every U.S. war and many others as well. But don’t expect any spectacles about the war in the Persian Gulf to reach screens anytime soon.

Historically, meaningful films have emerged years, sometimes decades, after the last shot has been fired. Paths of Glory, Stanley Kubrick’s stirring film about the First World War, came out in 1957; the Academy Award-winning Platoon, Oliver Stone’s moving account of the Viet- nam War, came out in 1986.

Studio executives interviewed Thursday in Hollywood said the war would not inspire an immediate rash of Persian Gulf war movies. A variety of low-budget action films are being linked to the war, but few major movies with Middle Eastern themes are in the works.

Hollywood's fascination with things military was once expressed by the late Robert Aldrich, director of The Dirty Dozen and other films. ““War may be hell,"’ he said, ‘‘but it sells at the box office.’*

It wins Oscars, too. War-oriented films have won 13 best-picture Oscars. Wtih the advent of the First World War, the film industry was well developed, and producers con- tributed to the war spirit with such Propaganda films as The Beast of Berlin.

Not until seven years after the Armistice in November 1918 did the first important movie about the war

appear. King Vidor’s The Big Parade captured the bravado and the horror of trench warfare. Lewis Milestone’s All Quiet on the Western Front viewed the tragedy of war from the German side.

Hollywood followed the same pat- tern in the Second World War: recruitment and morale posters during the conflict, greater realism afterward. And studios poured money and stars into films that treated the war from every possible angle. The home front was explored in movies such as Since You Went Away. Battle was the theme in movies like Wake Island,

Local Red Cross gets involved

The Canadian Red Cross Society in Ottawa has launched a campaign to raise an initial $1 million for Red Cross humanitarian activities in the Persian Gulf, according to Gary Ockenden, Regional Director, Kootenay Region.

“The International Red Cross and Red Crescent has intensified its ac- tivities in the Persian Gulf since

August when it began setting up transit camps in Jordan, and providing medical aid afid relief for Tefugees from Iraq and Kuwait,” Gary Ockenden said.

“The Red Cross/Red Crescent has appealed worldwide for $24 million to fund current relief activities in the region.”*

The Canadian government has

channelled $1.55 million through the Canadian Red Cross to support humanitarian activities in the Gulf. The Canadian Red Cross Society has identified areas where it may have a role to play in the event of an outbreak of hostilities in the gulf. In

What would life be like without plastic wrap in our kit- chens? Let's look at the pros and cons of the situation.

Plastic wrap is handy. A lot of people use it to cover bowls of a leftover food in their fridges. It is also used to wrap cake and cookies and sandwiches for lun- ches. You can even see through it so you know what you've wrap- ped. In recent years it has been used a lot to cover food as it cooks in microwave ovens.

There is no doubt that it is very convenient.

Let’s look at what happens to the plastic wrap after it leaves the kitchen. Eventually it finds its way into a garbage can, and from there to our community landfill.

Let’s take a conservative estimate and say there are 10,000 local residents whose garbage goes to the Ootischenia dump. Suppose each resident were to consume an cight-ounce roll of plastic wrap each year. That would add up to 5,000 pounds of plastic wrap buried at the dump annually.

Just imagine 5,000 pounds of it — covered with mayonnaise and mustard, grease and goo — all buried under the ground. Each and every year another 5,000 Pounds accumulate.

What can we do to reduce this problem? Here are some alter- natives.

Don't use plastic wrap to cover bowls of leftover food — use a plate instead.

Don’t use plastic wrap for san- dwiches and cookies and cake for lunches. Instead, use a Tupper- ware container, which can be returned home and washed.

Plastic wrap adds up

Don't use plastic wrap to cover food “as it cooks in your microwave oven. Some things don’t need covers to cook. For those items which do require covers, purchase a durable plastic ventiliated hood specially designed to cover plates while being heated in microwaves. These items can be washed and used again and again.

What would life be like without plastic wrap in our kit- chens? Not much _ different, really. The real difference would be noticed at our. community landfill. It’s up to you.
