Sanchez: The Man, The Moustache
By: David “ Call Me Kitty”Page
I find that the most puzzling
question that any new frosh to the
Science faculty at Western should be
asking is why we have a mustached
sex doll filled with sand, wearing
tighty-whities as our mascot.
Well let me tell you my
friends, this is no mere sex doll, it is
a raging icon of science, a figure we
should all look up to and be inspired
by. To try to explain the origins of
Sanchez would be an exercise in
futility, for you read this upon mere
paper, not leather bound manuscript,
as the correct story deserves. I can,
however, highlight each of Sanchez’s
features in a possibly witty and
clever manner relating to science.
Let us begin at the most
noticeable feature of Sanchez. You
know which part I refer to, the part
without which no male sex doll
would be complete. I speak of course
of the porn star moustache. Now
you may be thinking: “How could
a simple moustache possibly relate
Show me your genitals: My summer in a bio lab
By: Mat Hall fruit flies she takes it doggy-style.
I could tell he wanted her
from the way he throbbed. I could
tell she wanted him from the way
she stared. He approaches her and
she turns away, occupying herself
with some food. He moves in from
behind, eyes burning red lust. She
is ready. She is ripe. His gingerly
caress startles her at first. She is
nervous. He mounts her and she
squirms. His arms press into her back
and grip a little too tightly. She tries
to get away but he is already inside
of her. His face is expressionless,
this is all business. He fills her with
his seed and she can’t even close her
eyes... because she has no eyelids.
Because she is a fruit fly. And like all
to science?” The most obvious
answer is of course it relates to the
people.
Scientists are by nature
very unkempt people; most of
their time is occupied by the study
of unimportant, but nonetheless
time consuming activities. This
leaves very little time for personal
hygiene and grooming. Young
scientists are often referred to
as “nerds” or “geeks” from their
peers.
However, as nerds age into
scientists and begin to grow facial
hair to accompany their rich musky
smell, they gain respect from their
peers. While male scientists may
want to model their own facial hair
after Sanchez, female scientists
may want to consider growing a
thinner and gentler moustache. So
you see, Sanchez’s moustache the
essence of science; the scientists,
without which no science would be
possible.
-WEEK
I bet they didn’t teach you
that in genetics.
This summer I have had the
pleasure of seeing fine examples
of fly copulation like this every
once in a while. It always makes
me happy. First because all love is
beautiful; even small scale, kinda
dirty fly love. It
also makes me
happy on a very profes-
sional level because it
means the genes I want
are moving to where I
need them to go. Yes
my summer was spent in a genetics
lab working with the little critter
known as Drosophila melanogaster
The next feature of San-
chez that should be dealt with
is of course the round and open
mouth, ready to speak the words
of the great prophets of science,
including: Albert Einstein, Niels
Bohr, and the inventor of the
Fleshlight, the invention that has
kept frosh company for months,
and roommates scarred for de-
cades.
Now surely you must be
confused as to how a dark and
gaping hole, nay, chasm, like the
mouth of Sanchez could possibly
symbolize science. However,
to ask that would be foolish, it
represents the mystery that drives
all of science. Many a person has
stared into that empty and open
hole of Sanchez’s and wondered
how deep it goes, four inches,
six, or is it bottomless? Only
the brave attempt to answer that
question, and they are scientists.
Science constantly stares into the
darkness and unknown, and pulls
in the science world. It was a sum-
mer full of wonder, merriment,
science, fly cocks, and fly vaginas.
It would be my fine pleasure to
tell you all about it. Join me, wont
you?
My lab specializes in de-
velopment. Learning how one cell
becomes a fully functioning organ-
ism. Think about that...
just think about it.
Invoke your
inner nerd
and I hope
he/she lets
you know
how fuck-
ing cool that actu-
ally is. My project
dealt with looking
out answers from its grasp. I hope now
you are beginning to form a picture of
how Sanchez encompasses the very es-
sence of Science.
The last part of Sanchez I will discuss
is the underwear. Now I understand that
underwear represents nothing itself, it
is what is contained within the uncom-
fortable elastic bindings that should be
discussed. It is underneath those tighty-
whities that dwells a force so furious
that even 1,000 burning suns could not
match its force. Tales have been told
of young frosh glimpsing a sight of
what lays underneath the underwear
and going blind instantly. Although not
the heart of Sanchez, he does contain a
destructive element to him, in the same
way that Science often contains a de-
structive element. Therefore I urge you
in your studies to become the underwear
of Sanchez, in a metaphorical sense of
course. Always ask yourself whether the
knowledge you gain would be better for
everyone, or should be kept safe and out
of harm’s way.
at one protein and how deletions in
certain domains affected its ability
to develop some fly parts. What this
amounted to was me growing some
flies, and forcing them to do it with
other flies. So how do you mate flies?
Well my colourful first paragraph
outlines one way. I call that “the
easy way”. I like to throw on some
Led Zeppelin and turn off the lights
(when they are nice enough to do
that). Sometimes it’s not as awesome.
Then you have to do what I like to
call “priming the engine”. You grab
one male and one female fly by the
wings. This is probably the trickiest
part because they’re pretty small…
and wily. Once that is done you have
to stimulate the male organ. It’s best
to use something soft to rub on it. I

A Letter From the Desk of the
President
Welcome Back to Western Science!
Whether or not this is your first time
of experiencing the energy of a new
school year here at UWO, there is
no question that you already (or
will very shortly) realize that there
couldn’t be a better place to be.
On behalf of the Science Students’
Council (SSC), I want to welcome all
of you to this family that we know
as Western Science. Let me assure
you that you have made one of the
best decisions you will ever make,
as you are now a part of one of the
most highly valued Science programs
of the universities in Canada. As
the Science Students’ Council, one
of our primary goals is to voice this
fact, but we also work in many ways
to ensure that our faculty continues
to grow and evolve constantly.
Our commitment to stu-
dents begins in the classroom with
extensive representation throughout
the university in order to ensure
each student has access to the
information necessary to succeed
as a student here. Members of the
Science Students’ Council strive to
ensure that individual needs of the
students are catered to; working
to ensure that each student under-
stands that we are here to work for
you! Just some of the events that
you can be sure to look forward to
include...
•Release of new Science merchandise in
September!
•Science Homecoming on October 3!
•Science Formal on November 27!
•Western’s very own Science Games!
•Science Carnival trip to Montreal in
January!
•Various Academic Seminars throughout
the Second Semester!
•Sporadic ‘Nights Out on Richmond Row ‘
and Coffeehouses throughout the year!
These events are meant to not only en-
hance your academic careers, but to offer
an outlet to escape the classroom, and in
some cases, forget about it all together.
Throughout the school year, you can visit
www.uwoscience.com for updates and
more information regarding these events.
Other than that, there is not much else to
be said... but I just want to again congrat-
ulate each of you for choosing Science
here, and to welcome all of our first year
students that are new to our campus.
This will truly be one of the most exciting
journeys you will partake in. I look for-
ward to seeing all of you throughout the
school year, and always feel free to visit
us at our office in Nat Sci 108.
Be easy,

Balls, Balls, Balls

By: Justin Bondy

This summer I was lucky
enough to be selected for a NSERC
(Natural Sciences and Engineering
Research Council of Canada) grant
to do research in the physics depart-
ment. The grant is an award open
to any student looking to do some
research with a supervising profes-
sor over the summer, and is primarily
awarded based on marks. Basically
the grant is the government paying
the school to hire me, and boy, do
they ever pay well. The perks of get-
ting a NSERC grand are many, but
I would have to say the best is the
flexibility it offers me in my sched-
ule. Since I have a set salary for the
summer instead of being paid hourly,
I don’t have to worry about sitting
around till 5 o’clock after I am done
all my work just so I can be paid for a
full 8 hours. Instead, I come it to the
lab, finish what I need to do that day,
and leave. Another perk is simply the
fact that being the recipient of one of
these awards looks quite bitchin’ on a
resume, as they are very prestigious.
Long story short, if you have the
opportunity to apply for an NSERC
grand, DO IT!
Now that we have the most
important thing about a job, pay-
ment, out of the way let’s talk about
what I actually do. My lab studies
granular material, which includes
things such as sand, kool aid mix,
the salt for your margaritas, stuff
like that. My job is to measure
the forces acting on different
types of spheres being pulled
out of big tubes filled with tiny
balls of glass. The glass beads I
work with range in size from half
a centimeter across, all the way
to being so small I have to wear
a gas mask when using them so
they don’t get into my lungs. My
average day consists of submerg-
ing the intruding ball into a tube
of beads, activating a motor to
pull the sphere out of the contain-
er, and measuring the force of the
sphere 5.57 times per second with
a load cell and multimeter. After
the data is taken I analyze it on a
computer using a great program
called Matlab. Using Matlab I can
do things like rescale the data and
do non-linear least squared fitting.
I’ve done this hundreds of times
over the summer by changing the
parameters such as ball size, bead
size, extraction speed, and tube
shape.
When I tell my friends
and family about my job the first
question everyone asks is “what
are you trying to accomplish with
this?” and to be honest, I don’t
really know. But that’s how sci-
ence works some times. You don’t Right, my job. Even if I have a day where
