LIFESTYLE 1 TV LOADED WITH SEX Television these days is loaded "with sex, sex, sex double number of sex scenes aired years ago, says a study out Wednesday. And the number of shows that include "safer sex" messages has levelled off, it said. There were nearly 3,800 scenes with sexual content spotted in more than 1 1 00 shows researchers studied, up from about 1,900 such scenes in 1998, the first year of the Kaiser Family Foundation survey. Vicky Rideout, a vice-president at Kaiser, says the number of shows that included a message about the risks and responsibilities of sex is still very small, and has remained flat since 2002. About 14 per cent of the shows with sexual content also had discussions of contraception, waiting to having sex or other "safer sex" messages.

On the other hand, Lewis doesn't want to rely on her name. She's proud of the original songs she's written Shelter Your Needs, I Am My Father's Daughter, Comin' Around and she intends to build a fan base of what she terms "Lick lovers." The way to do that is to play live and let people judge for themselves.

"It's a real thrill because we all love the songs we're playing and I wrote songs specifically that I thought would be fun and get people off live that are really energetic and moving to me and you can feel them and sing along." There's a night-and-day difference between the life of a pampered actor and being in a band, but Lewis isn't complaining. "Life on the road is pretty good and fairly painless besides being greasy and being sweaty and not showering. "What keeps it exciting is the shows 'cause you have a new audience, a new venue, a new vibe every night." But there's more in common between acting and rocking out than you might at first realize. Lewis says that acting is more cerebral and analytical, but whether you're on a set or on stage you have to be in the moment. "It's a different creative medium than acting, because acting is very insular, and of course you don't have that connection to the live crowd.

Music is very visceral and it's almost like a primal expression. So what I try to do that's similar to acting is I try to surrender to the Hollywood star broadens creative spirit with rock band By Cam Fuller ofTheStarPhoenix Juliette Lewis is a natural born rock roller. The Hollywood star of such films as Cape Fear, Natural Born Killers and Old School is indulging her first love in the rock band Juliette and the Licks.

Their quick dip into Canada includes shows in Winnipeg, Saskatoon, Edmonton, Calgary and Vancouver. A recent one in Toronto at Lee's Palace was a blast. "That was shocking how great that went because we never played there before. The feeling was like they were waiting for us," Lewis said from Minneapolis. Of course, it doesn't hurt that your frontwoman is a movie star.

Lewis, 32, received Academy Award and Golden Globe nominations for Cape Fear and has worked steadily for the past 15 years. She recently finished shooting Catch and Release with Jennifer Garner, due out this spring. "It's a double-edged sword," Lewis says of her movie fame.

her childhood idols David Lee Roth, Iggy Pop, Mick Jagger and Grace Jones. "I like performers that really are theatrical and bring a sense of drama and joy to the table." The thing that a rock show gives her that movies can't is control and instant feedback. "My job is very specific in that I try to move the crowd and shake mem up, get them to feel and not just be sedate and watch a show. And that's really fun to see that actually happen. To see their eyes light and up, to see them become adrenalized." Of course, Lewis's other job is the one that pays the bills, and she's smart enough not to leave that behind.

"I'll make movies here and there because it's my livelihood. It's tremendously risky in that I'm going away from something that has relative security and investing my time and energies into something completely new and untried." On the other hand, that microphone needs some attention, too. "I won't be giving up any time soon. I want to make the next record." Saskatoon documentary maker wins Gemini flap Global News Global National with Kevin Newman By Joanne Paulson SP Features Editor Saskatoon graduate student and filmmaker Tasha Hubbard has won a Gemini Award for her moving documentary, Two Worlds Colliding. The Canada Award Gemini is bestowed annually on television programs that reflect the racial and cultural diversity of Canada.

Hubbard wrote and directed the winning 49-minute documentary examining the relationship between Saskatoon police and the aboriginal community. She shares the award with the National Film Board's Bonnie Thompson of Edmonton, who produced the work. It is part of the NFB's Aboriginal Filmmaking Program. "I am quite surprised. It was a real shock when I found out," said Hubbard in an interview Wednesday.

"I had been told that the NFB had submitted the film, but it just sort of went out of my mind. "I am pleased that it is being recognized a year later, after its release. It's had a great run already. It's been broadcast several times, and re-broadcast, and we had a national tour and it screened at a number of festivals. "However, it's good that the award will help people be reminded that the issue isn't "Yet, I also felt that because of my background and also because of the relationship I'd built that I had a responsibility to finish the film and put it out there, to help create dialogue.

"I had been raised in a non-aboriginal home and reconnected with my family when I was a teenager. I've spent the last eight years feeling part of the aboriginal community." Hubbard felt she could look at the issue from the vantage point of being inside both communities. She is now completing her masters degree in English at the University of Saskatchewan, and credits the department for its support during the time it took to film and then support the documentary. She is also developing another film, and plans to apply to the Phd program for next fall. She plans a career as an academic and filmmaker.

Ray Stephanson, a professor in the University of Saskatchewan's English department, called Hubbard "one of our most gifted graduate students." In a news release, Stephanson said Hubbard's work as a filmmaker has already had an impact on the Canadian scene. "There are few students at any university in Canada who can claim such dis- Entertainment resolved. In order for change to occur, we need to revisit the issue again and again, no matter how painful it is." Two Worlds Colliding is partly based on interviews with Darrell Night, an aboriginal man who said he was driven outside city limits by police in sub-zero weather to walk back to Saskatoon. An investigation resulted in unlawful confinement convictions for two police officers. Two other aboriginal men, Lawrence Wegner and Rodney Naistus, were found dead in the same vicinity where Night was dropped.

Night's allegations also resulted in a commission of inquiry into the 1990 death of Neil Stonechild, another aspect to the documentary. It will air again Nov. 30 on CBC's Roughcuts, where it premiered. "I'm really pleased, also, (about the award) for the people who appeared in the film," said Hubbard. "This film exists because of their willingness to speak, and that's what leads to the film's appeal.

You hear their voices." Hubbard, bom Cree but raised in a non-aboriginal family, felt it was necessary to make the documentary. It was a long time in production, at nearly five years. While Hubbard had doubts about her own abilities and finding support at first, she was determined to complete the project. lonigm Survivor The Apprentice Without a Trace That 70's Show Submitted Photo Tasha Hubbard tinction. She is most worthy of this award and to be congratulated for her significant achievement." Hubbard also received the Golden Sheaf award for best aboriginal film at the York-ton Short Film and Video Festival.

Hubbard will receive her award next Thursday, Nov. 17, at the 2005 Gemini Awards.
