During the past week in India, Muslims set fire to a train of Hindu nationalists, killing 58. More than 300 Muslims and Hindus were killed in fires and other religious violence and retaliatory killings over the next three days.

American-led troops have herded the remaining al-Qaeda and Taliban forces in Afghanistan—US intelligence puts the number some- where between one and five thou- sand—into the eastern mountains where they will be slaughtered in revenge for the September 11th terror-

ist attacks on the US. :

Ino) thes 2 Middle. Bast, Palestinian suicide bombers and snipers continue to murder helpless Israeli citizens, while the Israeli army continues to murder helpless Palestinians with rocket, helicopter, tank, and small arms fire.

All sides continue to condemn the revenge attacks of whoever it is they’re killing.

CADRE POETRY ISSUE

The Cadre poetry issue will be appearing! Soon! All UPEI students, professors and staff are heavily encouraged/threatened to send in their poetry. Deadline for poems is March 29th. Experience is not neces- sary, nor is rhyming or especially good grammar, though we do not frown on these things. Poems can be dropped off at the Cadre office (Main 06) or by emailing them to mdorrell@upei.ca. Deadline for poems is March 29th. Poems must have a title, an author, and we would really like to have them on disc because we are atrocious typ- istsd. Deadline for poems is March 29th.

LIFEQUOTES

We all have our favourite quotes — as mail trailers on our computers, taped to our bathroom mirrors, written into our address books, engraved in our memories and cherished in our hearts.

Here’s your chance to share, and to learn from the best that informs your colleagues. From now until the end of March you can contribute through the UPEI web pages, ‘

www.upei.ca/lifequotes/

Submissions will be categorized and, except for anything completely inappropriate, . will be updated and posted weekly through that link.

You can make your submissions anonymously if you wish, but the source of the quote should be given in every case. Offerings will be gratefully accepted under the several headings of Health, Work Life, Spiritual Life, Student Life, Humour, Sports, and that old favourite, Miscellaneous. The final result, we hope, will be a collec- tively-produced document that you will want to print, keep and treasure.
