Osterweil said that while she followed Cunninghams intention in severing interpretation from the choreography, she nonetheless perceived implications in the set of the second piece. “eye Space." Designed by Henry Samelson. the printed backdrop was a flood of intersecting blue rods erupting on an electric-red canvas, pep pered by streams of multicolored dots. Vibrant wouldn't even begin to describe it. The piece intensified with the layering of urban ambient noise in the house and music by Mikel Rouse that each audience member heard on an iPod shuffle, creating a bombardment on the senses. Osterweil said that as she lis tened to her iPod and watched the dancers dressed in shades of blue move fluidly against the set. she couldn't help but think about the interconnections, patterns and dif fering perceptions of the world. Robert Swinston, a dancer with the group and the assistant to the choreographer, said he admits it is a sophisticated, and sometimes inaccessible, art form. He said both pieces are "classic Cunningham" in that Cunningham releases his NOW HIRING: SERVERS $6.

Swinston said Cunningham isolated the choreography, music, backdrops, lighting and costumes of the first piece into two options to create a context of chance. “If there is a point, it is to show you that it doesn’t matter." he said.

The county's first landfill opened in 1972 and closed in 1995. when new regulations forced the county to open anew landfill adjacent to the original site. The new one boasted a liner, which the 1972 landfill doesn't have. The county sealed the landfill by placing a 3-foot soil cover on top of it and planting vegetation to prevent erosion. As waste decomposes, new soil must be added to fill in holes. Monitoring wells near the landfill must be tested semiannually for water contamination. If the tests show stabilized results after 30 years, the state may release the county from financial responsibil- NOURISH FROM PAGE 1 as on. and that kept us going." The run was modeled after the annual Krispy Kreme Challenge at N.C. State University. In that race, participants must run four miles and eat a dozen doughnuts. Despite early concerns, the ice cream didn't really affect the run ners. as only one person vomited. For some, the ice cream actually provided relief. “We actually felt better on the way back," junior Bri O’Donnell said. “The ice cream energized us." Third-year graduate student Kevin Crosby finished first. “It was a lot of fun,' Crosby said. “But I felt pretty sick during the Packing up for the summer & leaving campus life behind?

The construction demolition landfill is expected to last another 20 years, Wilson said. UNC contributes about 10 percent of the landfill’s waste, not including hospital waste.

EMT FROM PAGE t usually has a paramedic, a second trained EMT and a third rider, who is similar to an EMT-in-training. As an EMT basic, Trottman assists paramedics with things such as setting up ET tubes and IVs. The basic gets the IV, the needle and the other equipment ready, and a paramedic or an EMT intermedi ate actually inserts the needle. “We do the peripheral stuff that doesn't have a huge liability associ ated with it,” Trottman said. “The paramedics do all the saving." Trottman decided to remain a third rider for the last year because he would learn more. A second rider typically just drives the ambulance. Senior biochemistry major Devin Hubbard decided to adv ance from third rider and become an intermediate EMT. The essential difference between an intermediate and a basic is that the intermediate performs some of the operations that the basic just prepares. Since he began his EMT career a little more than a year ago, Hubbard has seen suicide victims, assisted births and made life-sav ing calls in the field. These experiences have put him outside his comfort zone, he said, but they've also helped him think on the go and cope with the more difficult and contrary patients. “Prior to EMT I'd been squeamish around blood." he said. “I was in a position to start facing my fears." ■ His first call put this notion to the test. A rollover car accident drew Hubbard’s EMT squad to the scene. When Hubbard looked £hr Oaiiii ear lirrl out of the ambulance window, he saw the battered car: every side smashed in. the roof crushed and no glass in the windows. “1 just thought. There are dead people on this scene,’" He said. “There's no wav anyone's alive."’ Excited, nervous and in shock. Hubbard briefly wondered how he would react, but he found that his mind cleared when he began proce dures he’d learned in orientation. As the squad stabilized the patient and talked to him, his panicked breathing slowed, and Hubbard said he could see the man’s stress level drop. “It wasn't as blood and guts as I'd thought it was going to be," he said. “That was the first time I knew that EMS was something I really liked, something I really wanted to do." When Trottman's squad picked up a 90-year-old woman who pan icked at the thought of riding in an ambulance, he stepped forward to comfort and soothe her while his colleagues treated the situation with professional efficiency. “Even though I wasn't trained and didn't have as much medical experience. I felt like I wasn't cold," Trottman said. But distance from patients and victims is an important part of an EMT's job because it eliminates the potential for an emotionally trau matic experience, Trottman said “It's not that they don’t care. If that’s your livelihood, you have to distance yourself," he said. “Or else you’ll get bogged down in the drama of everything.” Contact the Features Editor at unc.edu.
