XXII NO. 9 H 1 N 1 vaccine supply less than demand Questions regarding benefits, risks, and availibility of vaccine emerge AT'S IDE . . X-mas Child See Page 6 See Page 7 See Page 9 BY MAEVE CAMPLISSON Pride Staff Writer On Nov. 4, 2009, Director of Student Health and Counseling Services, Dr. Karen Nicholson, released a statement regarding the RINI vaccine. As CSUSM is a campus community serving thousands of people, containing the HlNl virus is a high prior­ity. Throughout the semester, CSUSM's Office of Communi­cations has issued releases as a way to keep the community edu­cated and aware of any updates related to the outbreak of the HlNl virus, or swine flu. "As you may have heard, San Diego County has begun receiv­ing HlNl vaccines. The initial doses have been in very limited supplies, with the majority of it going to local hospitals," the statement begins, later advising students that, "Once we [Student Health and Counseling Services] receive the vaccine, we will make announcements regarding where and when the vaccine will be distributed." For the many who have yet to receive the vaccine, the release offers little solace. As men­tioned, the vaccines are coming in small shipments, forcing medical facilities to turn away patients anxious to get the vaccination. Since it has spread from North dates to non-preg­ica to other con­tinents, the World Health Organiza­tion (WHO) and the Center for D i sease Control and Preven• tion (CDC) updated the virus's status to pandemic Image courtesy ofNovava.x last June. According to the WHO, there have been over 500,000 con­firmed cases in the world and at least 6,260 deaths as of Nov. 8, 2009. On the bright side, a vaccine to the virus is available. According to the CDC, over 4 million doses arrived in California, which is at least one million more than any other state has received. The new vaccine sounds hopeful, but it raises many questions about risks, benefits, and to whom it will be available. The San Diego Immunization Branch (www.sdiz.org) says that the best places locally to get the vaccine are from medical care providers, county public health centers, county mass vaccina­tion clinics, community clinics, and school-located vaccination clinics. CSUSM Health and Services will be having a flu vaccination clinic during the. week of Nov. 16, however this will only be for the seasonal flu, not the swine flu, and SHCS says that the vac­cines are taking longer than expected to be shipped. According to CDC recom­mendations, medical provid­ers give priority to children and adults ages 6 months to 24 years, pregnant women, caretak­ers of infants, and healthcare work­ ers. Unfortu­ nately, the county only to the has access nasal spray which the candi­ healthy children and adults between 2 and 24 years of age, and healthy caretak­ers under the age of fifty. D r . Steven Bates from campus' Stu­dent Health and Counseling Ser­vices explained the difference between the nasal vaccine and the injection is the nasal option contains a live but attenuated virus, meaning that the virus has been mutated enough to remove components that make recipients sick, but still similar enough to cause immunity to the HINl flu in its harmful state. He also said that immune-compromised and at-risk patients still have a chance of developing HlNl even from its attenuated state. Other risks of the vaccine arise from egg allergies. Children and adults who are allergic to eggs should not receive the vaccine, but the CDC notes, "Because children with severe asthma are at high risk of serious compli­ / cations from influenza, ,-l-"0 1-"' a regimen ,l~ has been devel­ o p e d f o r gi v ing infl u - e n z a vaccine to chi l­ dren with severe asthma and egg hypersen­sitivity." The CDC also says that some people who think they are covered, such as people who have had flu-like symptoms in 2009 or people who were vacci­nated against the 1976 Swine Flu, may still be susceptible to the par­ticular strain of HIN! and should still get vacci­nated. S a n Diego Immu­rizain branch warns about potential risks, "Vaccines, like all medi­cines, do h a v e pos­sible s i de effects. Most s i d e effects are such as pain or tender­ness where the• shot is given. Serious reactions ,t are rare, but they can / happen. Your doctor or ,.$ nurse will discuss these ~t with you before giving the shots." However, their web­ site also claims that the benefits of vaccination generally out­weigh the risks involved. If you are part the groups eligible to receive the vaccine and you choose to do so, check www.sdcounty.ca.gov to find out where and when to get your shot. If you want the vaccine, but are not eligible to receive it at this time, the CDC says, "It is expected that there will be enough 2009 HlNl flu vaccine for anyone who chooses to get vaccinated. Limited amounts of 2009 HlNl vaccine became available in early October, and more will continue to become available over the upcom­n g weeks."

This time I thought I would comment on the differences in how people get from A to B in Britain and America. The first, probably most obvious point I think you would agree is that here in America you need a car. This is noticeable to everyone. Ifyou don't have a car you think how much you need one, and ifyou do have a car you pray that nothing happens to it. Being an exchange student, I don't have a car, so it can sometimes make me feel restricted in what I want to do. Itcan be quite frustrat­ing when you think ofsomething good to do, but you can't do it, as there is no way of getting to that place. If you're lucky, you know someone that has a car and can take you places. Fortunately, my girlfriend does and she takes me anywhere I want to go! Here at CSUSM, there is the Sprinter train that helps people get around. It can help you get aJI the way from Oceanside to Escon­dido, which means easy access to the beach! It only costs $2 to ride and the longer you're on it, the more you can get for your money. The train system here seems good. I have only used it a couple of times so I can't really pass a clear judgement on it. I think the main difference between CSUSM and my university back home (UCLAN) is that this university is acommuter school, so the major­ity of people live off campus, whereas at my university in Brit­ain the majority of students live on campus. Back in Preston, UK, there is no need for a car. Every­thing students need is within lO minutes walking distance: pubs, clubs, shops, you name it. The train station is also within walk­ing distance and you can get to any part of the country quite easily (although I am aware of the fact that Britain is a lot smaller). The public transport system is not perfect in Britain. It can be expensive, especially if you wait until the last minute and they're not always on time. One thing I have noticed here in America is the sheer size of the cars: they're huge. Some people have told me that they have small cars and when I've seen them, I've said that would be a decent sized car in Britain. If the people that owned these cars came to Britain and went to buy a car the first question they would ask is where the rest of the car was. It remains a mystery how some ofthese big cars fit into Study abroad • BY IVAN GARCIA the magic carpet flight (which I Pride StaffWriter hear I bear an uncanny resem­blance too [possible job candi­ Yes, soul searching.

At the expense these things come to the fore­ofsounding like Aladdin during front of the mind when I'm the UK feeling truly alone. Search­ing the mind and reflecting on these memories is something that I can't help but do. Liter­ally, even to the point where I stay cooped up in my room and just think. Think about home, life, love, and whatever else may be on the menu at the local self-reflection bar and grill. The point I'm trying to make is that taking time for self­reflection can happen anywhere. But when you are away from your expected social behaviors, actions, and responsibilities, it allows you to hopefully see who you really are or if you're just playing some role that many simply expect from you. Take this time to think ahead, reflect on your past actions, and come to terms with them or set them right. I know that this week's edition of Abroad in the UK was a little different and off such small garages. I have also noticed the size of the freeways are a lot bigger here, 6 or 7 lanes is the average width. It may or may not be bard to believe but Britain's motorways (freeways) are only 3 lanes wide. From my point of view you don't necessarily need a car in Britain, especially ifyou're a stu­dent, and the transport system can be good enough to get you around. However, you definitely need a car here in America to get around, mostly due to the biggest overrid­ing factor: the place is just so big. the beaten path, but then again, change happens. I'm sure I'll be back to my normal style of spewing out the literary equiva­lent ofhitting two bricks against each other for three hours, but then again, this just shows a range that can be gained by reading and interpreting the metaphorical newspaper of self (Ok I'll stop now, all these met­aphors are hardly substantiated to this extent, it's like I pasted them on with 3 year glue-stick).

"It's worth it to see the smiles on their faces." It has not always been simple to find everything needed to complete the shoeboxes for the children. According to Bran, one of the hardest elements of the gifts to find is the empty shoeboxes needed to pack the gifts in. However, several local shoe stores were able to donate empty boxes for the cause, and there were more than enough to give the gifts to the children. It is also difficult to get the word out that this program is available for CSUSM students looking for a way to donate their time to a worthy cause. This year, there was also a con­cern that not too many students would not be able to afford to donate gifts to fill the shoebox. Still, Bran was happy to share that even though everyone is feeling the economic crunch, both teachers and students came together to give for the less for­tunate. "We had a great turnout," said Bran. While students might not see the full impact of their gift has on the children, the effects are immeasurable. A great example of some­one being impacted is Huda, a female dietitian student from Cal State San Bernardino, a Jordanian international student. When she was a child in Jordan, Huda and her family received shoeboxes. Upon coming to the United States, Huda started the Christian Club at CSUSB and initiated Operation Christmas Child last year. Now CSUSM and CSUSB are competing to see which campus' program will bring in more boxes for the program. While it's too late to get involved this year with Operation Christmas Child, students who would like to get involved for next year, or be a part of nonprofit activities, can help by getting in contact with Ruth Bran at r22Bran@ yahoo.com, or call her at (760) 583-2381.

Conference Championship on Saturday. The game was tied 1-l at the end of regulation and two overtimes, but the third-seeded Cougars pre­ vailed over top-seed Ohio Domini­can when in the ensuing shootout, the latter's fifth shot was stopped by the crossbar. CSUSM won the shootout 4-3. With the win, Coach Ron Pul­vers' Cougars are now headed to their second straight NAIA National Championship appear­ance. "The team was fantastic," said Pulvers. "They were n't at their best after last night's tough match, but they really battled to get through. I am super proud of what they've overcome this year." A scoreless deadlock was broken in the 55th minute, as Lucia Asbury got the Cougars on the board first. But Ohio Domini­can, whose play absolutely lived up to their seeding, got the equal­izer in the 75th minute. The 1-1 score would persist through regulation and overtime, putting the Cougars in a familiar situation. Facing Simon Fraser in last year's A.I.I. Champion ship game, CSUSM earned the Confer­ence Ch ampionship by winning a shootout. This time around, Ohio Domini­can would take an early 2-1 lead after their keeper stopped Breanna Brenton's shot. But Cougar keeper Kaycee Gunion would come right back with a save of her own, and with Kelly W herry, Lauren John­son, and Arielle Cohen scoring goals, the shootout would be tied 3-3 heading into the fifth and final round. Up first, CSUSM senior captain Courtney Drummond tucked her shot away, and when the final Ohio Dominican shooter missed, the championship celebration began for the Cougars. The NAIA National Champion­ship pairings will be made avail­able this coming week, and CSUSM will learn who and where they are playing in the opening round. •Arts & Entertainment Tuesday, November 17, 2009 9 Honoring our Veterans: Operation Art BY SANDRA CHALMERS ans proudly displayed appre-and collages art pieces by Arts Pacific. express their feelings of grati­Arts & Entertainment Editor ciation for our troops at the Association students, students The free art exhibit was tude and respect to our troops Clarke Field house.

Printed In USA. 20904324{49)-09/09-GRD New Moon Soundtrack BY AMY SALISBURY Copy Editor Try as I might, sometimes I just cannot escape the looming nature of pop culture. I know what I like, and most of the time am able to stick with my books, my movies, and my music. But something odd happened this week. I listened to the New Moon soundtrack. After my: initial shock ofrealiz­ing what I had done, I rechecked the tracklisting: Death Cab for Cutie, Grizzly Bear, Thom Yorke, The Killers, Bon Iver, among others. This couldn't be the soggy-sweet pop record surely matched with the Twilight franchise. Subjectivity aside (irony included), I feel I should make my ignorance of Twilight known. I saw the first Twilight movie and didn't read any ofthe books, and never had any intent to see New Moon. Still, I had the idea that Twilight was for weird 14-year-olds and weirder people with vampire fetishes. I do realize that there are legitimate fans who enjoy the writing immensely, but that generaliza­tion remains among non-fans ofthe series (i.e., most males and the oddball girl). But this record had some serious music on it. Things just didn't add up, and nothing explained it. The real shock here is that Thom Yorke's track, "Hearing Damage," is exclusive to the soundtrack. Yorke, along with his band Radiohead, left their record label and have essentially released works on their own terms since. So speculation might lead the listener to believe Yorke thought New Moon was relevant enough to be the vehicle BY SANDRA CHALMERS Arts & Entertainment Editor Enjoy a good lunch with some good music Students can enjoy live music at the Big Cat Food Court this Wednesday from 12-lpm outside under the patio shade. CalJed "Radical Tunes," the Big Cat Food Court and Cougar Shops have started a new tradition to offer live music for students to enjoy while eating their lunch. "We want to further develop a fun and exciting atmosphere at the Big Cat Food Court and support "Student Life" on campus," said Tipper Philips, marketing specialist for the University Auxiliary and Research Services Corporations (UARSC). ''Having good music with good food and drink is an out­standing opportunity to improve the envi­ronment in the Big Cat Food Court." Having two prior performances, Phil­ips says it's a new tradition that is still in its early stages of development. "We just started this and are feeling out the interest level." With the office of Global studies offer­ing international week at CSUSM Nov 16-19, the Big Cat Food Court celebrates it its own way by featuring a different inter­national menu item each day. Flavors from around the world are offered to students for a chance to taste recipes from overseas and other foreign lands. The new menu items are only for a lim­ ited time and end on Thursday, Nov. 19. Menu items prices will vary. Musical groups performing vary in genres and performance opportunities are available if any students interested in per­ forming with their band are able to contact Tipper Phillips at tphillip@csusm.edu or by phone 760-750-4718. They will need to provide a recording/CD ofwhat they would like to perform. "Our goal is to try and have musical per­formances most Wednesdays but we have a limited budget and are not able to com­pensate everyone for their efforts," contin­ued Philips. "We are excited about this and hope to be able to support new student life experiences here at Cal State Sao Marcos." Limited Time International Menu Items: Monday: Thai Thai Peanut Chicken Satay. Tuesday: Mediterranean Lemon Chicken with Tabouli and Medi­terranean Salsa. Wednesday: Indian Chickpea and Sweet Potato Curry and Basmati Rice. Thursday: Italian Eggplant Parmesan Sandwich with Pomodoro Sauce, Spinach and Mozzarella on toasted Focaccia. Image courtesy ofamazon.com for his individual track release. Boo Iver, one of the newest staples to indie music, appears with an achingly beautiful track called "Rosyln." End­lessly successful band The Killers offer "A White Demon Lover," a song reflect­ing more of their first album's style that took them so far. Even Lupe Fiasco makes an appearance with "Solar Midnite," an unusual song befitting the general tone of the soundtrack. I figure you can make one of two conclusions about this: all these artists subjected themselves to the world of the Twilight cultural phenomenon "just because they could, or they took advan­tage of Twilight's success to get their music heard by people outside their fan­base. Or, music editors Charles Martin Inouye and Gerard McCann just liked these songs as much as I did and found they fit great with the cinematography. Whatever the case, the soundtrack is a serious success, exactly the complement expected for New Moon.
