"Competit
ive play is encouraged, but never at the expense of respect between
players, adherence to the rules, and the basic joy of play."
The overriding ideal behind
Ultimate
frisbee is
Spirit of the
Game where sportsmanship is valued above all else.
Next week is the
World Ultimate

23
countries compete, so now is a great time to

Southeast Asian refugees, like other immigrant
populations, have had a mix of experiences and successes since they
began arriving in the U.S. in the 1970s. Among the refugees, two
groups, the
Mien and the
Hmong, tribes who
populate the
mountains of Laos and Thailand, fled when the Communists took
over. Today, some
Mien, also known to some Asians as the Yao, continue to live in
Chin
a, where they are a recognized minority group and elsewhere. Large
numbers of the
Mien people have settled in Portland, Ore., and California, and
appear to be doing pretty well. The
Hmong settled
primarily in Minneapolis and St. Paul because their military leader,
Gen. Vang Pao settled there. You may have read
about the
Hmong man who killed six white hunters, claiming racial animosity,
but before that occurred, the Hmong themselves have experienced
one tragedy
after
another. Fazel Sheikh's Refugees

Fazal Sheikh's
photographs have
documented the
plight of refugees in
camps across Central and East Africa and the Middle East.
However,
his
photographs are
distinctly different from
the
images of refugees we commonly see in printed news articles.
Sheikh's photographs implicitly assert that
the i
ndividual refugees share humanity with their oppressive
rulers. He does so by
depict
ing the individuals in
portraits rather than as
victims of a social and political drama. Sheikh, an American citizen,
was just awarded the
Grand Prix
International Henri Cartier-Bresson.

reasons not to use the word 'suck' in your product name - especially
if your product is, you know, a clock. "Suck bubble" isn't really any
better, guys.
That's almost worse than the Bluetake Headsets. (Thanks,
