Saturday Market continued from page 1A “The products (sold at the Mar ket) are from the heart of the peo ple who made them,” Colleen Bau man said. “Its a personal investment.” Part of the.charm of the Holiday Market is the unique gifts sold there, many of which are sold at both markets. Still said. Sue Theolass, owner of Laven der Moon, said she is most well known for the organic catnip mice she sells. “People can come to the Holiday Market looking for something for Aunt Betsy and find something at my booth or one of my neighbors booths,” she said. “They find that something and think, ‘Aunt Betsy will love this."’ Theolass also pointed out that the Holiday Market has a com pletely different atmosphere than its outdoor counterpart. “Most vendors go all-out to make things special (for the Holi day Market),” she said. “Since we can leave our booths set up, we can put extra care into how they look. Things are just more festive.” Several vendors, including The olass, said they see an increase in profits during the holiday event. “Last year’s Holiday Market was tire best selling year I’ve ever had,” said George C. Collingwood, own er of Clayton’s Candies. Collingwood is best known for his fudge, a product he describes as a “major impulse buy.” He said he also enjoys the unique atmos phere of the Holiday Market. “The closeness and friendliness ot vendors (is unique),” he said. “You see very few grumpy people — most are making more money than ever.” Anderson, owner of Judyjudy Bags, said there is better business at the Holiday Market because peo ple feel more free to come than they do to the normal Saturday Market. She said she enjoys selling at the market because of the atmos phere. “I love being able to socialize with the customers at the market,” Anderson said.

MSA continued from page 1A on which the country was founded, hot with bombs. “Don’t battle darkness with dark ness, fight darkness with light,” Karmadjieva said. Tureeva, who is from Uzbekistan, said it is important to understand that a lot of the citizens in Afghanistan are illiterate. She said their inability to read the Quran, Is lam’s holy text, makes it hard for them to understand what the reli gion is about. Mohammad, who is from Kuwait, agreed, saying the Taliban preys on citizens’ illiteracy, distrib uting inaccurate information about the religion to justify the leaders’ actions. “They can’t read the Quran, so they have no way to know if what (the Taliban) are telling them is true,” he said. “And people believe them.” Anna Seeley is a student activities reporter for the Oregon Daily Emerald.

ArtWalk continued from page 1A Carol Cricow, a Eugene attorney and author who is leading the writ ers’ workshops, said she hopes writers will get the information about contracts so they can make wise decisions. “In order to get published, writ ers are going to have to sign a con tract,” she said. “Writers can’t sell their work at Saturday Market.” The panel discussion, “Whose Domain: Creativity and the Inter net,” will address artists’ rights and the Internet. Tomorrow’s events begin at 9 a.m. and take place at the law school.
