So it's short notice. Why? Because it's been one of those weeks. So please pick up something!

In other news: Hootenanny! It's our annual fundraiser for NASH (the national journalism conference every year) and we need you to come out and bring all your friends! It's a $10 all you can drink event, $5 for the door, no outside alcohol. All the details (and the RSVP) can be found here: http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/event.php?eid=143910485654024

Want to Volunteer for Hootenanny? Come help prepare the place for drunken shenanigans, man the door, or serve beer. If you volunteer for more than two hours, you get in free.

And on to the pitches:

For Sunday

Apple Fest
Photographer: Tara M.
Free food. That's right, you show up, you shoot a few people tasting apple based products, and then you may partake yourself.

The Beanery
Photographer: Jess L.
Take a few pictures of people working. Be sneaky and quick though!

Canzine Review Saturday
Time/Place: 1-6pm Saturday, W2 Storium
Photographer: Open
Go hang out with our culture people and shoot some cool stuff at the local independent publishers conference. You'll learn a thing or two and meet some great people.





For Wednesday

ALLIES at UBC
Photographer: Open
ALLIES is a group for pro feminist men on campus. They're trying to become much more active on campus and have ambitious goals. Go up and get some interesting pictures of these dudes.

Jocelyn Lai Profile
Photographer: Open
She's a musician on campus, and a damn good one. Get her in the sticks of music and make it interesting.

Land use on Campus
Graphic Designer: Open
We need more graphics! Yes, that's right, we're doing another story on land use. Got something creative on this subject, tell me and submit.

Genetically Modified Fish
Graphic Designer: Open
A short story about genetically modified fish. Maybe just a photoshop of a mutant fish?

Environmental Supplement: Deadzone map & article
Graphic Designer: Open
Deadzones are areas of the ocean in which the water has no oxygen. Some are natural, some are caused by man. We want some one to find out where they are in the Vancouver area, and what is causing them. Contact the writer and do a little map.

Environmental Supplement: The wonders salmon run
Graphic Designer: Open
Carbon analysis shows that the BC salmon runs are responsible for a huge amount of the life in the region. Essentially, we want a sappy image of fish jumping out of the water, or something like that.

This year's salmon run
Graphic Designer: Open
We had a lot of fish, and apparently this is part of a cycle, and so we have a writer who is looking into the cohen inquiries and writing a story about them. Photo ideas: a "cycle" in which there are 3 salmon, then 10, then 15, then 1 (in a circle).

Environmental Supplement: Is your food Oceanwise
Graphic Designer: Open
We want some one to look into the Oceanwise certification. What does it mean, how does it matter, and who is looking out for it.

Environmental Supplement: Fisheries go goliath
Graphic Designer: Open
We've been told that BC fisheries are taking orders from Jimmy Pattison, essentially aiming to squash smaller fisheries. Probably something like a big ship blocking off a smaller ship would work for this.
