LONG Pride Staff Writer Commemorating those who served in the armed forces, Cal State San Marcos celebrated Veterans Day on Nov. 11 at the Library Plaza. The ceremony consisted of nearly a dozen Cal State San Marcos active duty Marines in Dress Blues. The ceremony included a speech from the master of ceremonies, Staff Sgt. Karin Reyes, a recital of a speech from President G.W. Bush, a color guard ceremony, and a cake cutting for the Marine Corps birthday, which was Nov. 10.

Hosted at the Oceanside Elks Lodge 1561, the observance was sponsored by the Combined Veterans and Fraternal Organizations of North County, in the Tri-Cities area, welcoming local political and military personnel as honorable guests to thank veterans for their service, commitment and role in helping the next generation understand why our nation celebrates this national holiday. The Marine Corps Junior ROTC Cadets from El Camino High School opened the ceremony with presentation of the colors, including the National Anthem and Pledge of Allegiance.

"It's for the youth too," noted Bob Neal, exalted ruler of the Oceanside Elks Lodge, about the reasons behind why we celebrate Veterans Day. "They're the future, and why we do this."* City councilman, Rocky Chavez, former Marine Corps colonel, speaking on behalf of Oceanside Major Jim Wood, offered a brief speech commenting how "the best thing about Oceanside is our relationship with the military. Not just the Marine Corps, but all services. Veterans fight for freedom not just for our nation, but for all nations." Congressman Darrell Issa, a key speaker at the ceremony, highlighted the expanding benefits for veterans and focused on the leadership experience that the military gives service men and women. A former United See CELEBRATION, page 3 Successful Student See Features PAGE 4 States Army Captain, Issa credited his military experience as the foundation for his leadership capabilities. "We are trained to be leaders. The military taught us leadership," Issa said proudly. "I've carried with me the training to be a leader.

Issa went on to discuss the Elks lodge 1561 in Oceanside Studentgives finance advice See A & E PAGE 11 unique patriotism and commitment military members have for their country, stating how "Veterans, and spouses too, have invested in their nation, not better than their neighbors, but just in different ways."

The teddy bear delivery starts on Dec. 13 in Balboa Park where representatives from each participating police department will speak at a press conference about the results of the event. These officers will then take part in a motorcade from Balboa Park to Children's Hospital located in the Kearny Mesa area of San Diego County. Since this is the season for multiple donation drives, and only our campus' second year of involvement, the Teddy Bear Drive could end up to be less publicized. "Students can get involved by getting the word out," said Panza, about ways that students can participate beyond just donating teddy bears. All donated bears must be in new condition; therefore, the drive cannot accept hand-me-downs as to comply with Children's Hospital's policies for infection control. Participants may also donate money, making checks payable to Children's Hospital. "It is with great respect and with a heavy heart," we pay respect, said Reyes about the tribute for those who served and those who've died. Veterans Day began in 1919 as Armistice Day attributing to the cease fire from World War L President Wilson proclaimed that Nov. 11 will be set aside to remember all of those who have served. President Eisenhower changed Armistice Day to Veterans Day in 1954 in order to pay tribute to all veterans of all wars. A speech by President George G.W. Bush was read by Staff Sgt. Louis Caliendo. The speech urged all Americans to recognize Nov. 6 through Nov. 12 as "National Veterans Week" and called on Americans to participate in patriotic activities. Bush's speech, read by Caliendo, also paid tribute to those who are serving overseas at this time. The ceremony also recognized the 230th birthday of the Marine Corps.

President, Shelly Monroe, "there has never been an off-campus garage/bake sale done by any student organization. I felt it was important to get the community involved and recognize that Cal State has a Child Care facility while fundraising all in one. Our student organization is different because we deal with children and parents. Not many people know that Cal State offers childcare to students at a more reduced rate than all the surrounding centers. Getting the community involved will make this event successful." In-kind donations are needed for the garage sale that are in good condition like clothes, dishes, and small furniture. Pick-ups are available till Nov. 18. There are two drop-off locations on campus in the Student Life and Leadership Office Craven 4116, and the ASI Office located in the Commons Building. Volunteers are also needed to help price items on Nov. 18, and to set up, sell and sweep up on the day of the sale, Nov. 19. The ASI Early Learning Center is a childcare facility run by ASI that offers lower tuition to students and faculty of the university. It is offered to the community as well, but students and faculty have priority. Students benefit from the center because it allows them to go to school and have lower cost childcare to help them complete their degree. It offers childcare to ages 2-4 years old and offers CLASSIFIEDS a camp in the summertime when the university is closed. ASI Early Learning Center is a non-profit organization, which means it relies on the P. A.T. club to help fundraise for any extra items not in the budget. Last spring, P.A.T. members raised funds through events such as a fashion show where the young children were dressed up according to themes. However, funds and in-kind donations are still needed. One of the biggest expenses they are saving up for is a childcare van. Their wish list also includes: outside play equipment, shade equipment, bicycles, balls, and computers. Volunteers are always needed to help assist with the children, and act as drivers to and from the Center. For any information on this event, donations and/or volunteering, please contact: Shelly Monroe, Parent and Teacher president at monro011@csusm. edu or 760-481-8240. CELEBRATION, from page 1 to support, defend and serve our nation. "Whether we are Republicans or Democrats, we are all veterans," said Issa. "Politics end when our nation needs us. There are no political stripes in the service." Following Issa's speech, Assemblyman Mark Wyland, for the 74th District, shared some inspirational thoughts about his feelings toward the role Veterans have in securing our nation's freedom. "This country has more freedom, more hope, and more opportunity than any other in history," said Wyland. "We may be imperfect, but now we are trying to bring these freedoms to another part of the world." Lt. Colonel Brian Kerl, of the United States Marine Corps, captured much attention in the opening of his speech when he joked about how "others (Chavez and Issa) may have excused themselves" due to other engagements, however; "the Marines are still here!" His comment was well received with laughter and applause. Emphasizing and reporting on current active duty veteran efforts, Kerl detailed the training procedures implemented at the Marine Corps Recruit Depot in Photo courtesy of Robert L. Watson Mr. and Mrs. Watson in 1943, after his draft into the Navy. San Diego. "Our commitment to one another remains unquestionable," said Kerl. "We are proud to have served in difficult circumstances. And thank you for your service to this great nation." In an effort to help local youths develop a positive sense of patriotism, the Combined Veterans and Fraternal Organizations of North County sponsored an essay contest "to make them aware about what Veterans Day is, and why those wars were fought to maintain our nation's freedom," said retired Marine Corps Captain, Donald Greenlaw. Chosen winners were awarded at the end of the ceremony. Three winners were selected from each participating school, awarding first place writers with a $100 bond, and second and third place winners with $50 bonds each. Six school divisions participated in the contest including: Faith Lutheran, Martin Luther King Elementary, Roosevelt Middle, Oceanside High, El Camino High and one recipient f rom the homeschool division. "It was a good experience for everyone involved" mentioned Jeanne Evans, CVFO co-chairperson, who congratulated the students on their wonderful words of inspiration. Eight students were present at the ceremony and honored with a certificate of excellence. In closing remarks, Rev. Steve Chappell offered a prayer for departed veterans, encouraging all attendees to keep in mind the "memory of all military members who have given their lives for us all. May they rest in peace.

Have you ever watched late night television and sat mesmerized as people retell their get rich quick tricks? They promise to send you a six disc set with all their instructions so you can do it too! And if you act now, they will throw in a free solar powered pocket financial calculator; all for three easy payments of only $33.33, plus shipping of course. Ever walked through a store's magazine and newspaper racks? The Wall Street Journal, Baron's, Kiplinger's, Smart Money, Forbes, Financial Times, and then of course the personal finance articles in magazines like Mens' Health, Cosmopolitan, and the thousands of other monthly publications, all offer up their words of wisdom on the issue that hits home every time: money, dinero, cash, bread, dough, cake, moola, etc... People are hungry for the tidbits of information that will set us free and let us retire early in a small Italian villa. Unfortunately, college graduates tend to leave their institutions of higher learning with a degree in whatever, a mountain of debt, and no real knowledge of how to get out of the hole. We put our faith in walking with our class on graduation day and then walking into our new office the next week. After all, you posted your resume on Monster and this new job you know you are going to get will finally pay enough money for you to live comfortably, pay off all your debt, retire early, and live happily ever after, right? Maybe, but I would not count on it. A friend of mine, a very intelligent guy with a degree in business management emphasizing industrial psychology from the highly regarded Pepperdine University, looked for three months to find a job only to be offered a $32,000 a year job as a very low man on the corporate totem pole. With that, he could live in an apartment with at least one roommate, drive the same car he drove through college, and maybe be able to save a little money at the end of the month. Unfortunately, his student loan debt exceeds $30,000 and any leftover money goes right into paying that off. Do not count on a well paying job straight out of college. Do not rack up the student loan debt (not too much anyway), credit card debt, auto loan debt, home mortgage debt, and any other kind of debt while hoping to make $70,000 a year, when you finally escape the college classroom and go out into the "real world." Instead, start your personal finance education now and start planning today. This winter break, go to a bookstore and find a book (that you will need to read) on personal finance. This column will attempt to tackle a lot of the issues facing college kids today with their finances. We will discuss important topics such as your FICO score, how to consolidate and eliminate debt, how to make a big ticket purchase like a car or a home, and we will try to give you the basics, like creating a budget, how much credit one should have, which kind of credit cards to use, and how to make the most of the money you do have. Hopefully, this will give you a better understanding of your personal finances. 5 t í you mom Bothered 6y massive or 6y a änßCe death on the Sat ñon teCeviswn side ii^asigtt iiiittiiilB-m^ f'M w e've "seefdecmfwh ° lrea in WmS i ovfes so •, it's not as^monaL When if's onWmM of §e road, it:) becdKBmnme IBB ¡jjlpsh r eofcfic,* • . 1 1 it < 5 ,, - ^' ^ <' V fllllll fS"On wiliiiiiii i E .

SIMON Pride Staff Writer LTWR graduate Robert Woerheide walked in May of 04, but not before establishing an especially sleek and professional online art magazine "Perigee", as seen through www.perigee-art. com. Directly after graduating from high school in '96, Woerheide attended Virginia Tech as a physics major. He didn't stay long, however, before moving out to San Diego. A fter some time working retail, and some more resuming undergraduate credits at Mesa College, he came to CSUSM and all it had to offer an aspiring writer. During one of Woerhide's campus visits an ensuing debate imitated conversation and conversation in turn imitated interview as Pride set one wordsmith editor against another. What do you recall about the education you received here at that time, do any teachers stand out, any program you found especially good or bad? I think I had a really good experience with the LTWR department. Brandon Cesmat, he was instrumental in helping me to find my voice as a poet. I never considered myself a poet, but he guided me through the process. And certainly professor Susan Fellows was critical in my development as a writer, and she stood out in my experiences. Newman and Yuan as well. It seems you remember more the professors themselves rather than any kind of structure within the college, the teacher more than the class. Yeah, I think so. Yes. You said that you transferred from Science into Literature. Have you talked with other people who have made what seems like such a drastic change? No, not really. I always hear stories of people 'changing their majors' and that sort of thing. When I went, I wanted to study Astrophysics and the math just killed me. So, in my first semester, I switched over to English, so it was a quick thing. I had an opportunity to go to the University of Iowa, and I.. .sorta wish I had, maybe. It's certainly more of an English-oriented school but my experiences at Virginia Tech instilled the seed for the online magazine, Many students might be in a similar situation, pursuing something in the more tangible sciences, where the arithmetic might seem a real drudgery, do you think it's a mater of whether you're 'capable' or more a matter of...'compatibility'? And if you'd had more compatibility might it have put you on an entirely different path, might you have continued with writing but in a lesser capacity? I think I would have eventually gone back to English, to writing; it was my passion since I was 1314 years old. I got fired up about astrophysics, but I have a feeling I was meant to be a writer is some form, or an editor.4 Working with words'; I think I would have eventually swung back to that. <?bc.

So when people make the decision it should have more to do with the more driving passion rather than what comes easiest, necessarily? I would say, yes. Certainly speaking for myself, I'm a passionate person, so it would make sense that I would be driven more by passion. Some people are more driven by wanting a better life for their family which might lead them to more profitable endeavors than writing, but for me I'd definitely be inclined to follow my passion. That brings us to a larger, and hopefully deeper question, in the sense that often people in the arts, particularly in literature, are viewed as 'reclusive' or otherwise selfish people, and yet so often explain their work in terms of how it can help other people. Do you think it's difficult to reconcile these two? No, I don't think it's difficult to reconcile them. Art needs to be an intimate and often private 'act'. Yet, in the end, I think art achieves what it needs to achieve by being sent to a broader audience, by engaging with the world. h ttp://www.perigee-art.com See INTERVIEW, page 6 FIVE 39Days FIVE I f kff T a i l S BUY 1 MYSTIC TAN GET 1 FREE I Unliminted Level 1 f MYSTIC TANS o r j Premium Beds ULTRA TANS pif $ 2 5 j p#$3§ 1 p#l$49 G o fcrail CUM od SS G o for ai CUM od SS fealty! < « "stuti^wdfceuityf M ?

It seems you're hoping for a natural process, that the hacks will lose interest, and yet so often we see that the big jobs in television and cinema are often going to the 'hacks'. How do you reconcile this? That's easy for me to answer: I think that in the modern world nice guys finish last, and I think it's a shame. I mean nice as in someone who has artistic integrity, who takes the long road. That's not to say that if you work for CNN you're a worthless human being, but in general I think the things that are rewarded in our modern system aren't necessarily conducive to good writing, to a sense of artistic integrity (not to use that term again). That's what I mean by nice guys finish last. In that respect, returning to education, how diverse the experiences and results are, do you think this has more to do with the system or the very =« Votum* lit tssu« Ii » Perigee'» Teaflh I*cue Oct/MoWOwcaMMI Ou» «te o* i «ndftfcokflreot W a* ht yu oiyd Ju e ta»«r ln ep pnmkm i * * o « e emy » og w.

Can you blame the system when the system is designed to serve the masses while the masses generally don't become good writers? I think there is definitely a level of personal responsibility, and with writers, with all artists in general, you're perhaps more likely to find people who aren't so concerned with publishing something to further a career as with simply writing a good sentence. And you'll find this in otherfieldsas well. Do you think there's anything to be done, whether in large classes or one on one, to 'make' good writers, and if not do you think maybe teachers should focus instead on making more voracious readers? I think both go hand in hand; you have to be a voracious reader to be a good writer. Don't you think, though, with regards to what you said earlier about too many writers... Yeah, if you have to pick one or the other, pick reading, we need more readers, then maybe, once they've read a heck of a lot, maybe they can become good writers, but in the meantime definitely pick reading.

But in terms of how to discern between worthy and unworthy submissions? Online publications are still fairly new, so I've simply had to do what makes sense to me and to the other editors. We have to trust our own sense for that but also have to be objective at the same time. In that sense we don't really have much in terms of 'models' to go off of, we're really just kind of doing what makes sense from an artistic standpoint. Being able to use your own taste and standards is something that a lot of people in the publishing and entertainment industry have as the highest goal Do you think that's a luxury that only obscure or independent publishers can afford, or is it a model that maybe the bigger distributors should follow more often? printing costs, that there will be so many independent publishers that writing will become a hobby simply because there is literally NO money to be made? Or is there a model or mission statement that the literati in all stations and fields could encourage to make writing a more lucrative pursuit? Tuesday, November 15, 2005 Perhaps. I think that's a legitimate concern, monetary concerns are part of the world, and they can be beneficial to the artistic process, and perhaps those that can't afford to be publishing shouldn't be publishing.

They don't know if they are a good or bad team. Do bad teams lose the close games or do good teams stay in contention until the last minute of the game. I guess it depends if you are a half full or half empty kind of person. Lucky for you Chargers fans, I am a half full kind of guy. If you play Monday morning quarterback like me, then you realize that the Chargers should be undefeated at this point, but they're actually 5-4. With those four losses coming by a total of 12 points, the Chargers have made their route to the playoffs much tougher. I think it is going to take 10 wins to make the playoffs, which mean the Chargers need to win five out of the final seven games. As hard as that may sound, I see it happening. The next game is against the Bills at home. That is win number six, because the Bills really only have one offensive threat in Willis McGahee, their running back, and the Chargers are superb at stopping the run. The following week the Chargers travel to Washington to take on the Redskins. I think that game is a toss up against a much improved Redskins team, but since it is in Washington I will give it to the Redskins. After the Redskins, the Raiders come to town for a Sunday Night Football match-up. The Chargers will easily take that game for win number seven, because the Raiders couldn't stop most Pop Warner teams from scoring. Then the Dolphins come to CSUSM Woméií*s and :| ¡I Men's Golf Team Results The g o l ft ^ m â o m S t a t e$ & & M a r e o s mé&é i Cal IndividualCougar nIIth p l a c e d t i b e C a l F o î yf & v i t & t i o t i s J , , Nov, 2005^ of 669 &t e a m score (329-340).Fourteen competed IMs teams m àie éfil&yœé, par Cypfus San with Ridge Obispa Golf Course 73in T2?

Secondly, Drew Brees needs to call some audibles at the line. Since Marty Schottenheimer and Cameron are more conservative than President Bush, Brees needs to offset his coaches by calling his own plays at the line. Finally, the Chargers need LT to touch the ball at least 25 times per game. I don't care if LT runs the ball, is thrown to, passes it, or kicks it; he is going to find a way to get into the end zone. If those three things don't happen over the next seven games, then the Chargers will be sitting at home watching the Colts and Panthers work their way to the super bowl.

I was unable to attend this year, but last year I was able to hear Carol Leigh (Sluts Unite speaker) and I learned a great deal about many issues surrounding sex workers and I was in no way as you suggested influenced to become one myself. Second, just to clarify, ASI money is not state money it is student fee money. ASI events are not Visit 1 11 Pride online a t funded by tax dollars, or the public as, you had claimed in your article. Lastly, why the influence of censorship, just because the issue is not your own personal favorite? Do you really mean for ASI to censor speakers simply because they are controversial? We are in college! Why are students not encouraged and given the credibility to think critically and make decisions for themselves by being actively engaged in ALL sorts of classes, topics, conversations, and events? Do you really think that women are going to "engage in random sexual acts" because of a speaker? Carol Leigh does not share her experience to influence students to become sex workers. Had you attended the event you may have had these facts. I find your lack of faith in students and especially women (since that is where most of your comments were directed) very disheartening. When our constitutional right to freedom of speech has been in jeopardy several times the last few years, such as the attempted censorship of Michael Moore and the fight against Senator Morrow's SB5, I would hope that students would defend their right to academic freedom and encourage each other to critically think about issues. This does not mean agree or disagree with them but to have the freedom , to make that choice on their own! Sometimes when we step outside our own comfort box, we learn the most. I recommend this sort of engagement to your opposition suggesting that you have all the answers.

Congressman Duncan's wet cement dream reminds me of another current event involving a city in Texas. On Tuesday, the folks of White Settlement, Texas, voted not to rename the city to West Settlement, Texas. Opponents of the proposed name-swap charged that proponents were attempting to "discard" the city's "heritage". Apparently, the White Settlement area was founded by, get this, m ^ 310 mo • • west for that matter), and I'm opposed to Mr. Duncan's plan, I would consider gathering signatures for a name-swap initiative in an area of California that was originally settled by folks from Mexico. I would reference the residents of White Settlement, and argue that city names that merely reflect an area's history are cool. And then we'd have Brown Settlement, CA. While such a move would not have much of an effect on a proposed or completed border fence, it'd probably be a nice way to stick it to Congressman Duncan. n The UPS Store « liswrfawswesferietitel^CSUSBassrt * : - - -- • — -- - Let us sign for and hold your ma il m Shipping Services - Packaging Services - Postal Services ~ Freight Services Wfeiibox Services - Copy Serpees - Fax Services - Shipping, Packaging, Mowing Supplies - Office Supplies - Rrirting Services - Notary Services Color Copies B/W Copies 490 m ore i nfoi birthchoice.net ALL SERVICES m white settlers who, by my guess, had a flair for the creative.

Texas Hold'Em is the latest craze in poker, especially on college campuses, due to the popularity of TV shows covering poker tournaments, like the World Series of Poker and Celebrity Poker. In Texas Hold'Em, each player is dealt two cards face down, which is followed by the first round of betting. A fter the dealer "burns" a card, a "flop" of three cards is turned face up on the table. The dealer then reveal the fourth andfifthcards known as the " turn" and the "river", with a round of betting and folding in between each.

According to a press release, Stone CEO Greg Koch said, "Stone fans will find the quality and character of our menu to match that of our beers, and for those that are not fully up to speed on just what that means, it means that people can expect to find a lot of quality and a lot of character." Koch says this will be reflected in a menu that will lean heavily towards items that are locally fresh and naturally raised, tossed liberally with spices, unique sauces and influences from around the world. Stone Brewing Co. was started in 1996 by two beer lovers, Greg Koch and Steve Wagner. The two met up after a class at UC Davis entitled "Sensory Evaluation of Beer." They found out that they had similar ideas in brewing and both shared the same passion for beer. After keeping in touch for a few years and brainstorming ideas for opening their own brewery, they made it a reality. The San Diego Union Tribune said "Calling Koch and Wagner beer experts may be an understatement." With the incredible success the brewery has had in the past nine years, this statement is undoubtedly true. While the new brewery is being built, tours and beer tasting are Images courtesy ofwww.stonebrew.com available at the San Marcos locaruns from the restaurant through a glass wall and into the beer garden outside. One side of the restaurant will have the view of the company's brewing vessels through a glass wall, while the other side will overlook the patio and beer garden.

In fact, she one day hopes to be the first woman president. "My favorite song is 'First Woman President' because it's the first song I ever wrote, during one of my CSUSM lectures. And, it's what I want to be, the first woman president, it embodies who I am," said Liberty. She has two main sources of inspirationr the inequalities she sees in the world and other artists that she respects. Her biggest musical influences are Missy Elliot and Nas. She is inspired by Missy Elliot because "She helps new artists. The media shunned her because of her weight, but she went against that. It's what I want to do. I'm not perfect, I'm not what society sees as beautiful, but I'm happy and I wouldn't change a thing," said Liberty. She respects Nas because he stays true to himself and his fans. "He doesn't have to sell out to gain a great audience. He's unique and I admire that. He hasn't gone down to anyone else's level; they all try to rise to his. He's on top of his game," said Liberty. At the end of Miz Liberty's last show, she went up on stage and battled a black, male rapper. A female audience member standing next to me turned to me and said, "Damn, that girl has guts. I could never do that." But Miz Liberty welcomes the competition. When asked if the experience of battling in front tion.

I also enjoy helping^guys get over the fact that it's okay to get beat by a girl." Miz Liberty's next show is Saturday, Nov. 19 at the Boulevard and is 18 and up.
