XXII N O. 5 T HAT'S NSIDE Local band headlining S OMA show this Friday ns fts & Entertainment Hits of Sunshine feSee Page 6 r icks & Treats p See Page 8 o p S cary M ovies BY JACKIE CARBAJAL Editor In Chief On weekend nights, the doors at SOMA open to fans of a range of musical acts from the more mainstream such as Dashboard Confessional, Panic! At the Disco, and Thrice to up-and-coming acts like Forever the Sickest Kids and Boys Like Girls. For local bands, getting the opportunity to perform at this hidden venue located across from the San Diego Sports Arena is a big step upfromjam sessions in the garage. This Friday, Oct. 23, two of CSUSM's very,own will perform with the rest oftheir band, Trains and Clouds, as the headliners at SOMA'S next show. The band's current four-man roster includes CSUSM's Philip "Felipe" Macias on guitar and Ben RofTee on bass, with locals Drew "Drewski" Carillo on drums and Jonny Paine on piano and vocals. Trains and Clouds originated back in 2007 when current members, Carillo and Paine, teamed up with two other long-time friends, Isaac Zagunis and Olin Brown. With the band formation complete, they went straight into writing music, developing a distinct sound. In typical fashion, however, the group had yet to come up with a name. During a brainstorming session, one member asked the others what they each liked doing. "One of us said 'Stare into the clouds,' while another answered, 'I like to think and gather my thoughts on trainrides,'so we put two and two together and came up with Trains and Clouds' representing thought or the thinking process," said Carillo. Shortly after the band began performing at venues such as SOMA, Zagunis and Brown opted out of the band. Remaining members, Carillo and Paine, later added Macias and RofFee to the revised group. "When Jon told me that Trains and Clouds was looking for a bassist, I asked them if I could try out," said Roffee. "I didn't have any real experience as a bassist and only very minimal bass equipment but things went well and the rest, as they say, is history." Though Trains and Clouds' Facebook page categories the band into the Indie/Alternative/Pop genre, the band members themselves are hesitant to define their sound. "I would describe the sound of Trains and Clouds as a mixture of themes rather than a handful of genres. To me, genres are silly because they are often times pinned to a certain lifestyle or counterculture," said Macias. "When that happens, fens seem to alienate themselvesfromgenres of music because „theyiJon^ associated with those who do look the part" As a guitarist, Macias' technical influences include John Mayer, Jesse Barrera (My American Heart), Justin Shekoski (Saosin), and Jonathan Paine. "In our music, there is a synthesis of a lot of different influences into something that is straightforward and relentlessly melodic. We're not some forcefully abstract, self-professed 'experimental' pretentious indie rock band," said Roffee. "There is something natural and communicative in the way we write and it seems like a lot of people have an easy time connecting to our music. We make no apologies for ambiguities in describing our music, there is so much more explained in the process of discovering it than we could ever try to iterate in words." This emerging band, with tracks such as "Oh Sailor" and "Sketch Alley Memorial," promises to show the crowd a good time this Friday. "Our music is for everybody. We try to create music for all age groups and tunes that people want to hear over again," says Macias. "The songs we write together are our favorite songs, so it's even more enjoyable when we can share them with an audience." Openers for the Oct. Images courtesy of Trams Armada, and Wintercolour. Tickets are $8.00 with doors opening at 7:00pm. "People should come out to the show because we are a band that fills the room with our energy," said Carillo. "If you enjoy a good live stow we definitely recommend coming out to our show this Friday" According to its website, SOMA is committed to "teaching new talent how to market and progress through the industry while offering a safe and energetic environment for those SOMA prides itself on exposing the community, especially local youth, to music and entertainment in a drug and alcoholfreeenvironment. The venue also supports various charities including "Stand Up Fear Kids" and "Street of Dreams: Musicians for Education." By pre-ordering tickets online through hmatiks. com, a portion of the purchase goes on to benefit "Homeless Teens of San Diego."

Not j ust the money needed to cover all the increased tuition f ees for next semester, but money for all the extraneous needs of the "holiday" season, like Halloween costumes, C hristmas presents, and Winter break vacations. Many students already have p art time j obs, but for those who are f ull-time students and need some extra cash for the holidays, there is always the option of seasonal work. When "seasonal j obs" are mentioned, the immediate thought for most of us is the guy waving signs for costume stores on the street corner. But the reality is that a number of retailers look for extra workers around this time to handle the increased customer volumes, and most don't involve wearing rubber masks. Probably the number one source of seasonal work comes f rom food retailers. Don't f ind the idea of f lipping burgers too appealing? T hat's okay; many places like Starbucks and local grocery stores o ffer viable alternatives and need people to help during the rush of Thanksgiving/Christmas customers. Positions like bagger or cashier may not seem that glamorous, but when in need of extra income there is little room to complain. Also, local pumpkin patches that spring up along San Marcos Boulevard are good places to f ind work because they inevitably become Christmas t ree lots, insuring a position up until December. Not to mention the bevy of stores, both food and otherwise, in local malls that need extra employees for the holiday r ush. Food, however, is not everyone's idea of ideal work, even in temporary situations. During the month of October, quite a few people apply to the Halloween costume superstores that seem to be springing up in the wake of stores like Circuit City and Mervyns closing for good. But there are plenty of year-round retailers looking for p art-timers as well, most notably electronics stores like RadioShack, where employees haves the chance to earn more than hourly wages with commission sales. In addition, big chain clothing stores in local malls and outdoor plazas, like JCPenney, Macys, and Nordstrom "-^•j.1 o ffer seasonal work that can lead to promotions and higher positions as time goes on. "I started out here as a cashier last November," said Chelsea Pratt, a CSUSM sophomore who works at the Nordstrom in the Westfield Mall at Escondido. "It was j ust as a parttime cashier at f irst, but now I 'm a part-time manager. So yeah, part-time j obs can d efinitely lead to opportunities to d ealing with rude customers and t heir kids all day? And on t he f lip side, you may find something you really enjoy doing and want to continue for t he remainder of your time at school. So if money's tight for you t his early into Fall, it may be t ime to bite the bullet and look for something that f its in with your school schedule. But be warned: don't expect to get Holidays off. advance." Not a lot of these " jobs" sound like a dream come t rue, but hey, they are only t emporary.

October 1 7,2009 Hundreds of r unners and spectators descended upon Mangrum Track & Soccer Field on Saturday and watched as the CSUSM men's and women's cross-country teams won the 2009 Cougar 5K/8K Challenge! The event, which is p art of the USATF Dirt Dawg Series, took place on a winding course that started on Mangrum Field and led runners through the University's " front yard," around the dirt parking lots, up Craven Drive, and back onto the f ield. Entry was open to everyone, as local runners competed with collegiate teams f rom California Baptist, Soka Univer- sity, Southwestern (AZ), and of course Cal State San Marcos. In the 5k competition, the #2-ranked Cougar squad carried the collegiate race, taking spots 1 through 7. The team f inished in a group led by Dallon Williams, who timed in at 18:08. Cady Villarrpal and Whitney Patton f inished in 18:09, Lindsey McKown at 18:10, Jessica Sandoval at 18:19, Kelly Thompson at 18:20, and J ennifer Albright at 18:30. Also competing f or the Cougars were Suzanne Scrimenti (9th; 18:34), Melissa Olmos (10th; 18:54), Jenna Nicholl (13th; 19:44), Brooke Smith (15th; 19:56), Reyna Gutierrez (17th; 20:04), Justine Lazare (19th; 20:11), Laura Heuring (25th; 20:38), Kimberly Rowland (26th; 20:41), Claire Hauso (27th; 20:49), and Christina Cooper (28th; 21:09). CSUSM f inished with a team score of 15 - the best possible score in cross-country. Cal Baptist f inished second with a score of 50, and Soka finished third with a score of 83. Overall in the 5k competition, the race was won by Joey Bonfiglio with a time of 17:26. Former Cougar All-American Anne Marie Byrne finished s econd at 17:33, and an A llAmerican f rom last season, Morgan Sjogren, took fourth at 17:57. The men's 8K collegiate competition was much more tense, as the Cougars pulled out a narrow win over Cal Baptist. Led by Muluken Beressa and Dave Williams, who finished first and second, respectively, CSUSM pulled out a team 24 to 31 win over CBU. Beressa posted a blistering time of 24:39 to finish first among collegiate runners in the 8K, and Edwards was not far behind with an excellent 24:53. Chris Capeau took 4th with a time of 25:30, Chris Strasheim was 7th at 26:05, and Bernardo Bahena finished 10th at 26:32. The sixth and seventh spots on the team were occupied by Patrick Fitzgerald (11th; 26:38) and Casey Evans (14th; 27:21). Also competing for the Cougar men's cross-country team were Miguel Vega (17th; 27:40), Mark Shimmin (18th; 27:44), Dave Slack (20th; 28:00), Thomas Polhill (23rd; 28:35), Antonio Sanchez (26th; 29:04), and Dimitri Eraditius (29th; 30:04). In the overall 8k competition, Nazario Romero finished first at 24:27, narrowly edging out Beressa, who took second overall. Cougar cross-country will be in action next Saturday at the Biola Invitational.

Unlike many people I know, I'm very impartial to the new film. Luckily, talking about the movie is not necessary when talking about the soundtrack. I might need to talk about it a little bit though, seeing as how this adaptation of a nearly 50-yearold, ten sentence book is a sort of magnet for indie culture. That would be a groundless assumption if it weren't for the music. Karen O of Yeah Yeah Yeahs wrote the majority of the soundtrack. Spike Jonze, her former boyfriend, directed the film and commissioned her to write a soundtrack that reflected the innocent, yet distantly dark tone that, according to Jonze, he wanted to achieve.

I don't think you need me to tell you this is an epic record. Now, I haven't actually seen the movie, so I unfortunately can't explain how it contributed to the film's message or atmosphere or anything like that. Unlike many soundtracks, this one is able to stand alone as what might as well be Karen O and the Kids' debut album (that's code for "I hope they end up making another one"). The first single of the 14-track album, "All is Love," was digitally released at the end of August, while the album didn't drop until nearly a month later. The feel of the music is not entirely different from anything any of these artists have released before, but it does have a certain vulnerability absent from the more in-yourface Karen O style. Karen O does most of the lead vocals that double and triple over more subtle male voices. Though riddled with tambourines and animalistic screams, the songs are focused enough to produce a successful series of fresh tracks. In a perfect world, Karen O and the Kids will keep making music like what they've made here without the incentive of backing a major motion picture. Until that world is realized, these wild tunes will help your imagination bridge the proverbial gap. /CHRISTIAN R ö C a l i Ä Ä iltteWW f KUTLESS - '§ ¡ p Mudhliketl^ sounds of RelientKand ; [ Switchfoofc, Kutíess's t mr álbum offers | o ri^iaísomidswilhamkofcl^sioworfrip can <fcTfeaturesGrammy award winning producer Bmwn Bannister, - ; Images courtesy ofamazon.com I II Ii tober 20-27 Poetic Titesäty wtth Eber Lambert A poetìc| i m ghi m Rebeefc&*s Coffeehouse m S m D iego r I dol's beloved» Adam L ambert's dad, E ber hos^by Lamberti * Mi KOD O HO m : attttges ; UpmfOtt&ges all jeweiiy, paintings, a nd sculptures a s artwork along University A venue a nd 5 t h A it Hite. $pm,aUages of Blues m Sm Diego, öie Swedish riot ¡lead singer, Maja lyarssoii, wiftbringa garage music* BY BILL RHEIN Senior Staff Writer undead.
