Tribute features variety
Fashion show, pop music part of program for Bosnia
By Eric Weslander Kansan staff writer
One moment an 8-year-old girl was dancing in traditional Bengali garb. The next moment a Bangladeshi musician was playing a screaming electric guitar solo.
Sonargaon, a tribute to Bosnia, featured poetry, music, fashion and computer animation. It was held Saturday night at the Lied Center, and sponsored by the KU Bangladesh Club, the International Students Association, Sprint and Student Senate.
Donations from the crowd of more than 200 will be sent to Bosnia through Red Crescent, an Islamic aid agency.
"The main reason to have the show is to have awareness of what happened in Bosnia," said Sharef Haque, KU graduate and coordinator of the program. "We have to make sure that something like this will power harm again."
However, he said it was important to grab the audience's attention through entertainment.
"We wanted to have a lot of different things," Haque said. "It's a complete package."
The entertainment included a computer animation voyage around Earth, three students from Wichita State University who played Bengali pop music on guitar and synthesizer, and two children, one who recited Bengali poetry and one who did a traditional Bengali dance.
The entertainment culminated in an hour-long fashion show featuring international clothing as well as clothing by Kansas City designers Deon Durr and John Garcelano.
"I thought the fashion show was the most interesting," said Mike Pierson, Independence freshman. "All of it was good, but I had never seen a fashion show before."
The Crescent Peace Society, a non-profit organization founded to enhance awareness of Muslim culture in America, distributed information about membership and programs at the show.
"We're just supporting the efforts of the International Students Association and the Bangladesh Club for the people in Bosnia," said member Alifya Vali, a Kansas City resident.
The show cost $5,000 to arrange, Haque said. As of yesterday, the organizers had not counted the audience's donations.

KJHK birthday bash celebrates 21 years on air
By Ashlee Roll
Kansan staff writer
KJHK has come of age. The University's student radio station, 90.7 the Hawk, celebrated its 21st birthday this weekend.
"This is a time for the community to see exactly what KJHK is all about and what we bring to the Lawrence music scene," said Nicky Skubal, Lawrence junior and director of promotions for the radio station. "We were initially established by students, for students, and they should really take advantage of what we can offer them."
The birthday extravaganza started Friday at the Replay Lounge, 946 Massachusetts St., and will continue until Tuesday night, when Combustible Edison will play at the Granada Theater, 1020 Massachusetts St.
"Besides, everyone can relate to the importance of being 21," she said.
The celebration started with a sold-out performance of Boys Life at their CD release party at the Replay Lounge. Saturday night, Jonathan Richman played to a crowd of about 400 people at the Bottleneck, and Sunday evening, Stereolab, DJ Spooky and UI played at the Granada.
David Day, Wichita senior and program director for KJHK, said the bands who were part of the birthday celebration all donated their names for the station's birthday.
"Stereolab is a big supporter of university music," Day said. "They were more than happy to participate."
On Tuesday, the birthday bash will conclude with the lounge sounds of Combustible Edison at the Granada.
KJHK originally began as KUOK in 1956, but only 10 living organizations could actually tune into the station, which was broadcast from the basement of Hoch Auditorium.
Dances author expresses self in musical medium
In 1975, the station was approved by the Federal Communications Commission and became KJHK.

"It is my State of the Union address from an un-elected president at the end of a century."
By Erin Rooney
Kansan staff writer
Michael Blake author
He wrote the book and screenplay for the award-winning *Dances with Wolves*. His new book, *Marching to Valhalla*, hit bookstores a week ago. And now Michael Blake is waiting for the release of his modern-rock CD. *End of the Centuru*.
Blake spoke to a crowd of more than 70 people Friday evening in Dyche Hall. He came to the University of Kansas to promote his latest novel.
Blake's spoken word CD, which will be released on Nov. 5, tackles topics such as homelessness, newspaper headlines, the military, politicians and mental illness. He worked with Tony Gilkyson and D.J. Bonebrake, former guitarist and drummer for the Los Angeles band X, to create 10 pieces for the album.
He decided to experiment with the music industry over a year and a half ago. Setting his words to slow-paced melodies, Blake chose something besides literature and films to reach his public.
"It's my State of the Union address from an un-elected president at the end of a century." Blake said.
"One reason is that, having dealt with all the various mediums, I think that music is still the most powerful one expressively," he said. "And number two, I've written a lot of
poetry in my life, and I — like the rest of the public — don't really get off on reading a book of full poetry."
Kerry Furlong, senior account executive for Innovative Media, said that Blake survived severe emotional and physical setbacks after being diagnosed with Hodgkins's disease. He has been in remission since 1993, but she believed it had an impact on his life and on his new music.
"On the album, Blake unleashes a series of broadsides aimed at overcommercialization, indifference and all manners of social and political injustices."
The CD has an upbeat song, Farts,
that Blake related to 1996 being
an election year.
"There's farts in the cupboard and farts on the stairs. Farts in the fridge, farts right here in my hair. There's nothing but farting, that's all there is to tell. And the worst of the story is they don't think they smell."
Ruth Lichtward, assistant buyer of books for the Oread Bookstore in the Kansas and Burge Unions, had the opportunity to meet with Blake and said that it was obvious Blake spent time thinking about the world.
"He's a very intelligent, intense man that's interested in a lot of things," Lichtwardt said. "He does want to make the world a better place than he found it. He said he once believed that one person could make a difference, and he still believes that."
