Appreciation class last Wednesda y.

Daily Staff W,it
Students taking wine appreciation, a course new to San Jose
State University this semester,
find themselves in a class that
combines both lecture and wine
tasting in its curriculum.
Despite the regular wine tastings, this class isn’t about consuming alcohol It’s about learning the differences in wines and
qualities and really gaining an
appreciation and knowledge for
it. said Richard Larson, lecturer at
SJSU and the man responsible for
starting this course.
"It’s wry. controlled." Larson
said. "We serve a one -ounce tasting of the wines we try. It’s not
even a serving but a tasting. It’s
not a drinking class. It’s a tasting
class."
Students will never drink more
than the equivalent of one small
glass over the three-hour period.
No one is even required to
drink the one ounce of wine the
students are given. Once they’ve
studied and tasted it. there is an
empty bucket sent around the
room to dump the remains that
people choose not to finish.
Because of the wine-tasting
component to this class, enrollment is restricted to students at
least 21 years of age. Photo identification was checked the first day
of class. Larson said.
-The students are s ery excited
about this class." Larson said.
"When you is alk in the room
there’s a bu/z. I teach another
class, and I sialked in the room
last week and it is as just quiet.
The wine class y ou ii alk into and
the students are excited. I’m excited about it."
The class has been added as an
elective course under the hospitality management department.
"I thought it was time." Larson
said. "The department has been in
existence now for over 10
and it was time to bring that

SJSU accepts Gulf Coast students
At least six affected by Katrina will attend classes
BY KELLEY LUGEA
Daily Staff Writer
Some students recently displaced by Hurricane Katrina will
be conditionally admitted to San
Jose State University for the fall
semester on a case-by -case basis.
"The devastation in the wake
of Hurricane Katrina calls for
an extraordinary response. The
toll in loss of life, livelihood and
property cannot yet be measured,
but we know that those suffering in Alabama. Louisiana and
Mississippi need our best thinking and our generosity to help
them cope with the aftermath of
the hurricane and to begin putting their lives back together."
SJSU President Don Kassing
said in a press release. ’San Jose
State is part of the CSU effort to
assist students whose academic
careers might otherwise be put
on hold by the multiple crises
arising from the hurricane.
"The
California
State
University will allow those from
the affected areas in Louisiana,
Mississippi and Alabama to
be admitted conditionally for
Fall 2005 to the campuses of
Bakersfield, Chico. Dominguez
Hills, East Bay, Humboldt. Los
Angeles and Sacramento.
"Those who lack proper academic documentation will still
be able to attend. Their enrollment status for the following
terms will depend on the ability
to provide proper transcripts and
documentation,
"Enrollment at the other 16
CSU campuses, including SJSU
will be at the option of those
campuses.
"We already have six students
coming to us and 2(X) system

conference Tuesday.

Reed said CSU will do what ever they can to assist students
in need. They do not want to see

hometown underwater. 17 -year old Jamie Ferrande broke the
door off a refrigerator and used it
to float his four young cousins to
safety. They languished for liaur
days at a hotel where his aunt was
a housekeeper, finally sleeping on
the roof to escape the stench before a helicopter delivered them
into the hordes of refugees trying
to escape the city..
Throughout. Jamie held onto
hope that a friend who now lived
in California - his only 10-digit number contact - could help. The
friend. Mark Miller. had run a New
Orleans bed -and -breakfast for a
time and had hired the teenager to
do odd jobs. Though he’d moved

Football team ready for encore of 2003 upset at Illinois
BY JIMMY DURKIN
Daily Staff Wr itt
San Jose State Ullisei.ity will be
looking to have its first 2-0 football
team since 1987 when the Spartans
tra% el to take on the University of
Illinois at I p.m. CDT Saturday at
Memorial Stadium in Champaign.
FOOTBA
Sin’, which opened its season
with a 35-24 win over Eastern
Washington
University
on
Saturday, will be looking for a repeat of the 2(8)2 season when Nick
Gilliam kicked a 37 -yard field goal
as time expired to upset Illinois
38-35.
While the Fighting Mini will be
using that game as motivation, the
Spartans have erased that win frotn
their memory banks, said Coach
Dick *Forney.
"It has no bearing. We’ve got
some guys that were there but it
doesn’t have any bearing," Tome),
said. "It was a great job by San
Jose State and the guys did a great
job, but it’s a whole different team.
a whole different staff, a whole different scheme. so I don’t think it’s
pertinent."
Senior fullback Jason Da% is
was a member of the Illinois team
that lost to SJSU and does not
want to experience that same feeling again.
"We remember that feeling
back when they came in and took
one from us," Davis said via teleconference. "That’s the reason
coming in the second time around,
you can’t take them lightly because they’ve proved that they’re
capable of snaking plays."
In that game. Spartan quarterback Scott Rislov threw for 408
yards, which is the most passing
,iil Its ;in opponent in the history
of Memorial Stadium.
SJSU hopes to get similar
success from sophomore quarterback Adam Tafralis, the reigning Western Athletic Conference
"Offensive Player of the Week."
Tafralis completed 21 of his 34
passes for 290 yards and two
touchdowns and ran the ball seven
times for 44 yards and two touchdowns.
Illinois coach Ron look is in his
first year with the Fighting Ill iii

Commissioner: Teams to remain in current venues
salary cups, future of baseball among several topics discussed in Selig’s address
BY AN NGUYEN

DANIEL SATO / DAILY STAFF
Major League Baseball Commissioner Allan H. "Bud" Selig addresses
the Commonwealth Club of Silicon Valley on issues such as salary
caps, the growth of baseball, and steroids at the San Jose McEnery
Convention Center on Wednesday night.
GET IN ON THE JOKE!
I,--’
Bud Selig, commission,’ of Major League
resp,,usi.
Baseball, repeated the tt,,id,
hulity" throughout his speech Wednesday night
at the McEnery Contention Center.
Speaking about issues ranging lioni economic growth to the mina-ions steroids scandal.
Selig made it clear that baseball was beyond an
American pastime.
"Baseball is part of the fabric of our nation."
Selig said "It is in the midst if a remarkable
renaissance."
This "renaissance" Selig speaks of is a result of the bounds in economic growth that the
league has made.
Selig offered many numbers as he listed the
growing amount of money pouring into the
baseball league coffers because of the growing
Ian base.
Money distributed within the revenue -sharing program has nearly doubled in the past decades to $3 billion.
He also mentioned that the league also made
$4.8 billion in ticket and merchandise sales last
year.
The sport has also taken great bounds in the
modern it, lu of technology, mainly on the
Internet. Selig said.
"The Mf.13 Web site has been called the best
sports Web site in America," he said.
The site showed more than 3 billion hits
in the last year and the number is continually
growing.
Selig admitted that his job has been. "a
struggle to balance national tradinim with
changing society."
Selig, the ninth league commissioner, spoke
of his admiration tOr Jackie Robinson, the first
black to ever play in the major leagues.
He expressed the bravery infused in that act
nil precedence.
-Rohinson’s act was the forefront of civil
rights." Selig said. "I knew Jackie Robinson
and Ins wife and they were such amazing
people.
I his inlegril!. related to baseball is the reason tt In Selig emphasized such a strong commitment to maintaining respect and that why he
is sin determined to rid steroids from the sport.
"We must eradicate the use of these substances." Selig said. "I will leave no stone unturned until this is succeeded."
Three detrimental problems result from the
use of steroids. Selig said. One, it is cheating
and affects the i,uhi lily of the players.
Second, it jeopardizes the health of the ones
taking the substances.
Finally’, it influences the youth of the I. ’tilted
States, he said.
Selig has stepped up the consequences it

’The Aristocrats’ pushes envelope
p \ GE 7
Documentary chronicles evolution ofjoke, features numerous comics
’A Sound of Thunder’ a
whole storm of problems
BY CHRISTINA YOUNG
Daily Staff VVI ite
Daily Staff Writer
Director Paul Provenza said he and co-creator and co-executive producer Penn Jillette set
out to rei cal to the world a joke that is known as
a "secret handshake" among comedians in their
documentary, "The Aristocrats."
The joke’s structure consists of a standard
opening line ("A guy walks into a talent agency
...), a two-word punchline ("The Aristocrats!"
hence the joke’s title), and a middle that is
"wide open." Provenza said.
Wide open, indeed. Throughout the film.
more than 1(X) stand-up comedians from Sarah
Silverman ("There’s Something About Mary")
to Bob Sage) ("Full House") to San Jose State
University alumni Tom and Dick Smothers
("Sibling Rivalry: The Best of the Smothers
Brothers") freely incorporate incest, bestiality
and other unspeakable acts into their versions
of the joke.
"People have trouble getting past the language." Provenza said in a phone interview.
"They just hear a lot of s--- and fart jokes. They
sometimes don’t hear that people are spinning
beautiful and wonderful inventions."
So where does the "beautiful and wonderful"
part conic into play?
Without the boundaries of political correctness that dominate television networks and
major movie corporations, the comedians in the
film were able to take a common, simple melody and improvise freel). Provenza said.
"You’re not seeing finished work." he said.
"You’re seeing people engaging in the experiment: working out :it the gym. When people
do this joke. they ’re really letting their hair
down."
Provenza said although he and Jillette did
not intend to make a political movie, issues
surrounding the First Amendment naturally
surfaced.
According to an article by Nicole Sperling
of the Hollywood Reporter, AMC Theatres
banned the unrated film from being played on
its screens.
Censorship is coming from individuals who
run television networks, political parties, and
religious organizations. Provenza said, and
their moral agendas do not reflect the values of
our nation as a whole.
"When you see these people on TV, you’re
seeing them at their most limited," Provenza
said.
The Christian fundamentalist movement that
is supposedly sweeping the country is an illusion put on by the media. Provenza said.

e create a context that says
flat out we’re
going to say things that are offensive, rude and vile."
Paul Provenza, producer
"Think about it. When you check into a hotel
room, porn will cost you $9.95, but the Bible is
always free." Provenza said. -That tells ’ ’ii all
you need to know if you think about the basic
concept of supply and demand."
He said that "real clamp downs" on First
Amendment rights :ire coming from the liberal
left as well.
"They’re very %%ell intended." Provenza
said. "But when you can’t say anything offensive about anybody, the idea becomes abused
and corrupted to such a degree that it becomes
the most serious transgression of freedom of
speech."
Provenza said the politically correct doctrine
"clips all the wings and shaves off all the edges"
until entertainers are forced "to lit into these very
narrow parameters of what is acceptable." Their
material all starts to sound and feel the same.
Those featured in "The Aristocrats" easily
avoid this phenomenon by tossing any standard
of decency or propriety out the window.
One comic in the film questions whether or
not the lines are being crossed if the man who
walks into the talent agency were to spread his
own feces on his face and perform in black face. Laughter explodes from his comrades.
Another has the man describe his daughter
as a "really sex) nine -year-old."
"Of course. iie’re not actually condoning
anything we sa)." Provenza said. "We create
a context that says Ilat out we’re going to say
things that are liens’s e. rude and stIr
However, he said he and Jillette base no
problem if this kind of humor isn’t your
"cup of tea." Provenza said his own mother
wouldn’t like the movie much.
"And there’s nothing wrong with my
mom," he said.
The documentary is more than just a series
of individual performances. Provenza said. In
reviewing approximately 140 hours worth of
footage over the course of several months,
he said he found common ideas emerging
through the comedians’ commentaries and
performance,
Provenza. %% ho edited the movie along with
co-editor EIllerN Emery said he wanted these
ideas to move forward without breaching the
integrity of each performer.
The documentary subtly flows from one issue to the next. Comedic theory, sexism in the
entertainment industry., and racism are among
some of the topics discussed by the performers.
"You’re coming behind closed doors." said
Provenza.
"The Aristocrats- brings the audience into
"the world of comedians- when normally, it’s
the other way around.
Provenza said he’s taking this concept further by creating a use tour he’s calling "The
Aristocrats On Ice.Provenza said he hopes the show will start
touring by the end of the year.
"It will he the first comedy tour that’s by
comedians, for comedians." he said, it’s not
going to be Attu! ss hat’s the nu,st marketable.-
Emmy’s to feature ’American Idol’ style competition
LOS ANGELES (AP)
the
Emmy Awards will be singing a
different tune at this month’s ceremony, and it could be a classic.
In an "Americ:in Idol -style
competitit in. stars and singers
ranging from William Shatner to
Donald Trump to Frederica von

pick their favorite song via online
or text -message voting.
Kristen Bell ("Veronica Mars")
will be the only solo performer,
with her %ersion of the "Fame"

The dynamic duos announced

"There are certain television
theme songs that are nearly as
memorable as the shows connected to them." said Ken Ehrlich, the
ceremony’s executive producer.
"By jogging memories as well
as creating wonderful moments
by having them performed on
this year’s Emmy show, we think
we’re giving viewers one more

statement.

While music is an integral part

it’s not typically’ key to the cetemony honoring the best of television.
Musical entertainment in an
awards ceremony can be a risky
proposition. The best-known example: Rob Lowe and a performer
dressed as Snow White dancing in
an opening number for the 1989
Oscars was widely palmed as
dreadful.
Meanwhile, in honor of the
victims of Hurricane Katrina.
Ehrlich said all Emmy present

In addition, he said information

the ceremony, which had been
