Wednesday • August 3,
Exercise
Continued from Page 3
Tanning is free.
Location: Jay’s has a very good location. The
gym is on Old College Road just off of South Col
lege, making it easily accessible for Bryan and
College Station residents.
Lifestyles
Cleanliness: Lifestyles is very clean. The fa
cilities are roomy and well organized, making the
overall appearance very appealing.
Friendliness: The staff at Lifestyles is very
friendly.
Extras: Lifestyles offers free trainers and body
fat ratio testing. They also have the Reiser pneu
matic resistance machines which use air com
pression resistance instead of weights. Tanning
is extra, but the whirlpool is included.
Location: Lifestyles has two locations, but
Lifestyles II in Bryan is for women only. The co
ed location is on Harvey Road in the Woodstone
shopping center. Bryan residents can expect a
ten to fifteen minute drive.
If weight training is a priority then Lifestyles,
Gold’s or Jay’s would be the best bet. Aerofit has
recently upgraded their free weights and
nautilus machines, but they still don’t com
pare to the other three which have more
than 8,000 pounds of free weights each.
Aerofit offers tennis courts and a pool, and
Lifestyles and Aerofit both have racquetball fa
cilities.
“We only have one (raquetball) court now be
cause we wanted to make more room for aero
bics,” Jami Campbell of Lifestyles said.
“Now we have the largest aerobics room in
Bryan/College Station.”
Lifestyles also has a private aerobics corner
for beginners or anyone feeling too conspicuous
on the floor.
Aerobics classes are offered at each gym but
Gold’s, Lifestyles and Aerofit offer the most and
reportedly best classes. Aerofit even has an Aer-
Wednesda}
obics facility located just south of Target on
Texas Avenue.
“There are some good facilities in this area,"
Kinesiology Graduate Assistant Terry Coker said,
“Just be careful who you listen to, especially
when training with weights.”
Coker said there is no guarantee trainers in
gyms know what they are doing.
If they are certified or have a degree in kinesi
ology Coker thinks they probably know what they
are doing.
“The safest thing to do,” Coker said, “is finds
trainer with certification through the American
College of Sports Medicine or the National
Strength and Conditioning Association.”

In early 1992, a new creature began burrowing its way
around Texas A&M. This friendly critter, called Gopher,
helps you browse many of the resources on the local campus
network or on the worldwide I ntemet. Texas A&M ’ s Gopher
provides easy access to endless amounts of information.
You can use Gopher to do such things as:
• Find out what University events are happening on any
given day.
• Look up faculty, student or staff phone numbers,
electronic mail addresses and office locations.
• View current and archived issues of campus newsletters
such as the Fortnightly, System News, Computing News.
• Access NOTIS, FirstSearch, TEXSearch and the Evans
Library Archives.
• Check out current campus employment opportunities and
job descriptions.
• Read up on computer resource information.
• See what the local and national weather forecasts and
current conditions are.
' Pick up a quote from Paradise Lost for a term paper.
' Read city council meeting minutes from Wellington,Ne«
Zealand.
• Listen to the final U.S. Presidential Debate of 1992.
■ Read about the Human Genome Project.
• Learn about federal grants.
• Download public domain software.

Because Gopher is a tool used on the Internet at thousands
of other locations, the amount of information available is
unbelievable. Besides infonnation pertaining to a particular
geographical area, Gopher servers also specialize in medi
cine, science, commerce, government, entertainment and
other special interests. Gopher servers deliver text, index
searches, still images, audio, public domain software all
over the world.
With Gopher, you can:
• Learn what earthquakes took place yesterday.
• Read today’s student newspaper from a school 2,000
miles away.
These examples are a tiny sampling of the information
Gopher can deliver. The fantastic thing about Gopher ii
you don’t need to be a computer geek to use it. Gopher ii
easy to access and easy to use. If you have a VM,
VMS/VAX or UNIX account, after logging on type Go
pher to access Gopher’s main menu. If you're a student,
and you don't have an account, use ACCESS to create one.
(Call 845-4217 for information.)
If you don't have an account, you can access Gopher from
the computers in most of the microcomputer labs on cam
pus. If you have a computer that is connected to the campus
network via Ethernet, you can install the Gopher software
on your machine.
Once you've accessed Gopher, a list of menu options
appears. You can choose menu items until you come across
the appropriate information, or you can use VERONICA
(the Gopher search engine) to do a local or world wile
search for any word or combination of words.
If you have questions about using Gopher, or if you, yom
department, or your organization would like to make infor
mation available on Gopher, send e- mail to
gopher@tamu.f.du or call Sam Fleitman at 84 5-6903 or
Dawn Lee at 847-9368.
