Tunnel of Oppression
Oppression is something that we have all felt sometime in our lives one way or another. However as I stood in what seemed like an endless line to go into the tunnel my thoughts of what this experience was going to be was very dismal. As I finally entered the tunnel my first thought was that it defiantly was not worth the wait, but as I got over those feels I began to try to gain something from the experience.
I tried to think of what I believed being oppressed meant to me and I thought about the holocaust, the blacks being lynched and women being abuse. Yet this understanding of oppression did not do it justice what so ever. There was so much more.
On the surrounding walls of the hall way there was words and phrases written that people like you and me would use that we would never consider oppressive, but that are. As I walked through the tunnel I learned that what one person might think is not oppressive really is very oppressive to someone else.
Although this tunnel was not all that well put together, it got it’s point across in the end. Some people seemed to get emotionally over the walk but I just took it as a learning experience and did not really have much emotion one way or another. All in all I believe something like tunnel of oppression this is a great learning tool for everyone.

The Sabercats took their home opener against their rival Arizona Rattlers Saturday 63 to 43.
However the game took second place to the electrifying AreaBowl Trophy presentation and banner unveiling.
In a league that is normally dominated by offense this game seemed to be all about special teams and defense.
Haglund, the Sabercat’s kicker, put up four field goals through out the game when last year he only had 18 field goals all year.
And the Sabercats defense held the Rattles to only one passing offense touchdown and had 5 sacks throughout game.
If they keep this up we can safely assume they are likely for a repeat Championship.

Lopsided Win in Sabercats Home Opener
Smoke went off, steams of lights filled the air while over 10,000 fans watched in aww as the 2007 area bowl trophy was brought back to San Jose.
“A lot of fans weren’t able to go to New Orleans with us,” said Mark Grieb for Area Bowl XXI last July. “Before the game the crowd was just great. They cheered when the trophy came out and the banner came down. It was fun for them.”
After the opening festivities there was still a game to be played for the Sabercats home debut between the one-time nemesis Arizona. These games usually end up as a nail bitter but the Sabercats sailed easily past the Rattlers in a 63-43 finish.
San Jose for the past six meetings with the Rattlers came out on top every time.
The season started out in a ruff beginning for the Sabercats (2-1) as they lost their season opener in such a lopsided ending.
When halftime of this home opener came the score was already 27-7 and was shaping up to be a complete blow out by the Sabercats. But this is the AFL and the scores can change rapidly.
Thanks to a two interceptions thrown by Mark Grieb, the Sabercats gave the Rattlers some hope letting them score 36 points bring the Sabercats lead to 10.
Both teams really did not shine in this game, displaying some obvious rusty areas in their games.
In a sport where offense usually dominants, the real story was the great play of Haglund, the kicker, put up four field goals throughout the game. These field goals were just what the Sabercats needed to allow them to separate the score from the Rattlers.
“Kickers get a lot of work in this game, but usually not field goals, “ said Haglund, who only attempted 18 field goals last season. “Four of them was crazy.”
The offense wasn’t on their A-game but thanks to the great play of the defense, with their three interception and two fumble recoveries they did not have to be.
“We did just enough on offense to get the win,” Grieb said. “I wish we had been more crisp, but it was what it was. Fortunately our defense cam up big.”
Even though the trophy ceremony was the talk of the beginning of the game the Sabercats gave the fans all they wanted to see, a great home opening win.

Dating Disasters
Is there really one right way to date? The problem with dating is that the majority of women in the world have different ideas and expectations when going on a date. Some women like just watching a movie. Some like dinner. Some like going to a club. Some like going bowling. But the biggest know fact is that men are always wrong in whatever they try to plan.
When it comes to dating women always insist that the man is the one who make the first move to ask them out, be the one to make all the plans and of course be the one to fund it all.
Our society has been shaped so heavily on this idea that women have all the power when it comes to dating and the men are the ones who have to do all the work.
For women all they have to do is be their beautiful self and treat the man with somewhat respect. And even at that if the woman has what he wants often time the man will put up with her bullshit. The woman can be late to the date and it is all good, the man just must wait patiently while she finishes an hour later and your late for your resrvation. Yet God forbid if the man is late even five minutes all hell will brake loose.
Dating for women, the easiest thing on earth. Dating for men, the hardest thing they will ever try to do. The key is to find a woman who cares nothing about dating and is down for anything. But good luck with that guys because even if they say they don’t care, believe me they do for sure.
