The petition drive, along with the launch of a student-run antiKoala Facebook page, are in response to the publication of the Koala's fifth CSUSM issue on Sept. 27, which promoted on its front page "homophobia, misogyny (and) pornography." One page led with the line "Women secretly want to be raped," and another featured a pornographic photo with the picture of a Women's Studies student superimposed on a woman in the picture. The petition seeks 1,000 signatures to lobby university officials to control the hate speech in the Koala, restrict its on-campus distribution and eliminate the atmosphere of intimidation and harassment associated with its content and distribution. Kit-Bacon Gressitt, a CSUSM Women's Studies student and freelance reporter, wrote the petition, called "Act Against Hate at Cal State University San Marcos," hosted by change.org. The opening statement of the petition claims that "the lack of action by lishes at San Diego State University and UC San Diego—but the Dean of Students Office did launch a campus Civility Campaign in September. And on Oct. 20, President Karen Haynes issued a statement encouraging students to speak out on Spirit Day against bullying and student marginalization. . "We recognize that there may be instances that while protected by the First Amendment, are contrary to CSUSM's core values of diversity and inclusion," Haynes wrote in her blog on the university website.

Mother Nature gridlocks northeast pumpkin production Kristin Melody Pride Staff Writer An average pumpkin sold in New York City could cost $25 this Halloween—twice the cost of the previous year, according to Associated Press. The price of a pumpkin in the northeastern states could nearly double due to nature's adverse effects that devastated pumpkin crops. According to The Week magazine, the pumpkin shortage in the northeast stemmed from three factors. First, the season got off to a late start due to heavy rain fall in spring and summer; flooding caused late pumpkin planting. Second, a fungus that thrives in wet conditions, phytophthora, infected most of the northeastern crops. Third, Hurricane Irene swept the east coast and destroyed the remaining pumpkin crops or washed them away, leaving many farmers without pumpkins for harvest and income. Other parts of the nation are able to sell at normal prices, including San Diego's local pumpkin patch Bates Nut Farm. According to a Bates Nut Farm employee, since the pumpkins were grown locally at the patch, Bates had not been affected by the pumpkin shortage, so the farm did not raise prices from last year. This excluded the jack-o-lanterns which went up $0.25 from last year. Bates purchased these from a Colorado farm, which had raised its prices to accommodate the shortage. A standardsize pumpkin at Bates cost $6. The "Big Macs," huge pumpkins, ranging from 25 - 115 pounds, started at $0.45 per pound and lowered to $0.30 per pound by the end of October. Bates Nut Farm, a 100 acre community farm in Valley Center established in 1921, hosts local events such as classic car shows, art festivals4 and scarecrow contests. The farm also generates income through the Bates Nut Farm general store that grows, produces and packages items such as dried fruit, fudge, nuts, hot sauces, oils and candies and seasonal decorations and knick-knacks. The Pumpkin Station is a local San Diego pumpkin grower who has four locations that sell pumpkins and have inflatable toys and a corn maze. Two farm locations in Rancho Bernardo and Bonita are where the Pumpkin Station grows a small amount of their pumpkins. "I didn't even know there was a pumpkin shortage this year. The Pumpkin Station has not raised their prices in 5 years," a Pumpkin Station employee said. A soccer ball-sized pumpkin costs $4 or the patch sells larger "bodacious pumpkins." The Home Depot in Vista charges $3.33 for small pumpkins, $4.48 for large and $8.48 for extra large. Last year, they charged $2.99 for the small size. The " Home Depot buys their pumpkins from growers in the U.S. The 2007 Census of Agriculture reported total harvested pumpkins for sale in the U.S. were grown on 92,955 acres of land at 15,088 farms, producing approximately 1.5 billion pounds of pumpkin annually.

Johnson Pride Staff Writer The modern practice of Halloween has stronger ties to historical celebrations of the holiday than you might think. According to the Encyclopedia Britannica, the name of the holiday comes from the holiday's original name, "All Hallows Eve." As time progressed, the name shortened to become "Halloween." All Hollows Eve was in practice the night before All Saints Day, "a day commemorating all the saints of the church, both known and unknown." The traditions we practice in our modern celebrations of Halloween originated hundreds of years ago. Over time, our practices, which traditionally take place on Oct. 31, have lost a great deal of their original meaning. By going through many of the common aspects and traditions of Halloween, it is evident where modern traditions have come from. According to historian Nicholas Rogers' book "Halloween: From Pagan Ritual to Party Night," Halloween is likely to have de veloped from the Celtic tra dition of Samhain» Samhain is a festival which commemorates the end of harvest. This festival, which begins on Oct. 31 and is typically held for several days, is a preparation for the dark seasons to come following the harvest.

"If [CSUSM is] a campus that cares about community, then the voice of that community should be heard," Literature and Writing Graduate student Jeff Schoneman said in an interview. "There should be a safe structure or space created where people can address those ideas [in the Koala] with the people who are actually writing them to see how truly weak the logic behind those assertions is." Sociology master's student Flora Seawood said in an interview that she is shocked to hear of the Koala's content. Seawood described the publication as counterproductive and contrary to the university's purpose.

Do you have your costume yet? If not, don't stress. The Pride has some ideas that are cheap, quick and fun. •Wishing it was summer again? It could be. After all, Halloween is the excuse to outlaw all fashion rules. Take out your favorite swimsuit and splotch some sunscreen on your nose. To up your lifeguard costume, get yourself a whistle and an inflatable inner tube from the Dollar Store. • For a more comedic costume, get your favorite cereal and literally become a "cereal" killer. Flatten out some cereal boxes and tape them to a plain shirt. Think outside the box and get a rubber knife to make your costume more imaginative. •Unleash your inner rocker and take out your Green Day concert shirt from the closet. Put on some dark jeans, tease your hair and put on some intense eyeliner. Dressing up as a rock star is great because you can personalize it your way. If you don't have an intense rock star shirt but have something a little more mellow like a Maroon 5 shirt, become a band's groupie. •Whatever sport you enjoy, take out your favorite team's jersey to show your appreciation. Just because baseball season just ended and basketball* has a two week lockout doesn't mean you have to store your uniform in the closet. This is a simple and easy costume to put together, but you still get to dress up. • If you and your friends don't what to do as a group, dress up as the adorable 101 Dalmatians. All you need is a plain white shirt, black or white shorts, white socks, and white shoes. Get a black sharpie and draw black spots on your white plain shirt and socks. Put your hair up in pigtails and wear a cute necklace as your collar. • Are you a fan of socks and sneakers? Go as an American tacky tourist. Put on a shirt you got from vacation, shorts and dig in your parents' closet for a fanny pack. The best thing about being a tacky tourist is that you caii personalize it. If you are a huge Disney fan, dress as if you are going to Disney World. If you have always wanted to go to Hawaii, put on a tacky Hawaiian shirt. �F eatures California State University San Marcos, San Marcos, California | Tuesday, October 25,20111 Visit The Pride online at csusmpride.com H appy Hour of the W eek: Three stories of fun at D avina's C abo Grill & Cantina Kristin Melody M O G L is hookin' you up with 1 0 % cash-back at Mr. Taco o n every purchase, every time!

Learning about goblins and monsters that seemed to hide anywhere where light fails to shine. As we got older, the stories got better. Suddenly, these "monsters" were potentially people whom once lived among us. Just an average Joe that kept to himself but secretly kidnapped teenagers and put their bodies in dungeons. Now that •we are technically "grown up," it's silly to still believe in ghost stories, right? But tell me, Cougars: have you ever been on campus alone and felt something eerie creep up your neck? Have you ever been in the library and suddenly a book falls with no explanation of how? What about the first floor? Have you ever made the long walk from the Math Lab to the Writing Center and heard other footsteps or saw someone swiftly walk by, yet no one was around? When I asked students about their "haunted" experiences in Kellogg Library, the looks of skepticism told me that they were sure ghosts weren't "real." And quite frankly, they're right. Ghosts aren't real. They don't have physical bodies, but does that mean they don't exist? Upon much investigation, I found that our very own Kellogg Library has a few regular guests that occupy the building once the doors are locked for the night. The first account I received was from Dr. Geoffrey Gilmore, who has had his own experience on the first floor of the library. Though his haunting was a few years ago, EartOut C«®h Iil had on the first floor. Footsteps, doors opening and closing, certainly it can't all have logical reasonings, right?

Supposedly, a young girl haunts the third floor library, mysteriously playing with toys. The fourth and fifth floor's usual guest is a girl in a white dress with a "slit throat," as some claim, knocking all the books down from the shelves. Was the girl Dr. Gilmore met just a figment of his imagination? What about the footsteps Ms. Dupont hears when the rest of the building is empty?

It makes me wonder what the scare factor had for films in the past that it's just not maintaining today. Ifindfear itself a successful way to instill fear in others. It's frightening to know how easily fear can transcend into reality as any other emotion can. Sometimes it doesn't always have to be in your face, and you don't have to actually see the "bad guy" (whether it be human or not). If you strip away all of the effects, jolting music and excessive gore, maybe the real terror can reveal itself. Whether you're home alone, at a haunted house or enjoying a horror film, once the distractions are gone, raw fear arises. Kyle M. Johnson Amy Salisbury Media Manager Flags Magic Mountain are a few popular choices. The unexpected affects anyone. Even those who claim to be veterans of horror can be spooked in the right place at the right time. The shock factor boils down to two things. The first is that loud boom of music that jolts you out of your seat during a film. It is quite annoying, considering it only gets out of you a moment of fright—only because you weren't expecting it. Second, I associate shock with films riddled with graphic violence and scenarios that seem like they're meant to gross you out rather than scare you. But then again they must be doing something right; the "Saw" franchise gained an average grossing of over $59 million and a total of over $415 million according to boxefficemojo.com (and I admittedly really liked the first film). "Mean Girls" is one of my favorite movies. The entire thing is full of extraordinarily hilarious one-liners, but one sentence within one scene rang truest to me: "Halloween is the one night a year when a girl can dress like a total slut and no other girls can say anything about it." Although you could say that's kind of true, Halloween does not constitute an excuse to wear a costume limited to lingerie and animal ears. In fact, originality is not that far away if you know where to look. This year, consider cultural relevance, conversation over controversy and creativity when choosing your costume. For your convenience, here is a list of a few of the most topical costumes for this season's celebrations. Wall Street You'll need a Styrofoam poster board painted like a road. Wait for it. Instead of being part of the 99 percent or even part of the one percent, here's your chance to be even more ironic than the Occupy Wall Street neo-hippie protesters themselves. Execution: paint your poster board like a road, go up to people and hold up the poster in their faces whenever they try to do anything at all. The effect will be especially hilarious if your significant other dresses as money and applauds you. Presidential Candidates You'll need a power suit and a convincing thumbs up. This option is especially easy and offers a lot of versatility for those who don't want to buy a new outfit for the night. Pick your favorite candidate (like Texas governor Rick Perry or career flight attendant Tom Miller) and go to town. Find a good, appropriate prop to enhance the mockery. Steve Jobs You'll need a black turtleneck, blue jeans, glasses and a winner's smile. What better way to honor the world's leading technology innovator than to actually be him for a night? Don't even say "It's too soon." The worst thing that could happen is someone uses an iPhone to record your Jobsy antics and then puts it on Facebook using a Mac. It's a win-win. Retraction In The Pride's Oct. 11 issue, the "Breast Cancer Awareness" article incorrectly spelled Zionna Munoz's last name as "Mnouz." The correct spelling is "Munoz." The article also said Munoz was diagnosed with breast cancer. In reality, her friend was diagnosed with breast cancer at twenty-six-years old. As a result, "Munoz began Barbells for Boobs to organize the Amazing Grace fundraiser. Proceeds are donated to Mammograms in Action, a non-profit breast-cancer organization of which Munoz is founder and president," according tojournal.crossfit.com. With "Shrek the Third" and "Shrek Forever After" being unnecessary contributions to a once great film series, it was hard to imagine that "Puss in Boots" would be anything more than yet another addition of overkill to the series. However, the spin-off prequel does just the opposite. Long before Puss meets Shrek, "Puss in Boots" tells the story of the titular feline as he reunites with his childhood friend and fellow outcast Humpty Dumpty as they search for magic beans. With the help of Kitty Softpaws, a cat with an expertise in thievery, they set out to find the magic beans so they can grow a beanstalk in order to steal the golden eggs from the golden goose in the giant's castle in the clouds. * The story is elaborate and intertwines several fairy tales by mixing and substituting the traditional, well-known plot elements. But that is half the fun here, as Jack and Jill now possess the beans, while the former Jack who once possessed them now goes by Andy Beanstalk. It's hot just because his character's name is in the title that Antonio Banderas owns this movie with his voice work as Puss. He is once again hilarious, over the top, heroic and seductive, balancing out all characteristics perfectly. Salma Hayek's character Kitty Softpaws presents herself as a fun counterpart for Puss. In fact, as strange as it may be to say, Banderas and Hayek's chemistry is a little too good, a majorly un- common accomplishment for animated films. Zach Galifianakis lends his voice to Humpty Dumpty. With Humpty being such a misunderstood character, he unfortunately doesn't give room to Galifianakis for his usual comedic potential. Seeing the film in 3D is not absolutely recommended unless you want to pay a few more dollars to see the occasional gimmick. However, children are likely to get much amusement out of the use of 3D. "Puss in Boots" is a surprisingly good movie, returning to the charm and wit that made "Shrek" and "Shrek 2" so great. If more sequels are to come in this new series, we can only hope that the successors of this film are just as rewarding. "Puss in Boots" opens in theatres Friday, Oct. 28. �California State University San Marcos, San Marcos, California | Tuesday, October 25,2011 | Visit The Pride online at csusmpride.com A&E Tales from the Nerd Si Scared Bitless - The Top Five Scariest Games Chris Giancamllli Pride Staff Writer H alloween w eekend l ooking G rimm?

Halloween gives players the opportunity to revisit these nightmarish settings and experience terrifying new ones. Here's a breakdown of the top five scariest games to get those pulses pounding. Dead Space (2008, Electronic Arts) Campus ImprovTeam draws crowds Players take on the role of Issac Clarke, an engineer sent to a repair a seemingly abandoned space shuttle.

Throughout the game, Daniel encounters horrific beings roaming the halls of the castle. With no weapons to defend himself, Daniel's is forced to run and hide from the horrors that lurk in the dark. FJÏAJL. (2005, Vivendi Universal) In this horror-shooter, players are assigned to a top secret squad of soldiers known as F.E.A.R. (First Encoùnter Assault Recon)* The F.E.A.R, group is covertly dispatched to investigate and eliminate paranormal problems.

BioShock 2 (2010,2K Games) Players return to the underwater city of Rapture, a rusted relic of a once thriving metropolis, in "BioShock 2." In this installment, players control Subject Delta, an armored behemoth searching for the girl he was supposed to protect.

According to North County Times, fellow student, Lorena, was lost in a fatal collision on April 21, 2007.

Barraza's Toyota veered into oncoming traffic and into a Early Learning Center's future questioned BY AMANDA RUTHERFORD Pride Staff Writer CSUSM's Early Learning Center has provided help for the moms and dads on campus for nearly three years and in the fall, the Early Learning Center will move into a new facility, The Center for Children and Families. The ELC was made to fit the needs of children and their parents who are struggling to get along with college life and a family. The ELC offers a place for volunteer students to work and to become close to the children and their families. But now the bonds that have been made between the employees and children and their families might be broken. Since the Early Learning Center is moving into its new building, the current working staff has not been guaranteed a job at the Center for Children and Families. The Center for Children and Families will open early 2007. The center was funded on tax revenue that came from tobacco smokers which was approved by the First 5 Commission. The Center for Children and Families is licensed to serve 190 children from infants to pre-kindergartners. The total number of families served is expected to be 300. Programs will focus on preparing children for success in many areas of school including: parent education, language, speech and literacy development. Mosetta Rodrigues, an employee of the ELC, said that the center will not be run by ASI any longer, but it will be run by the university instead. "The ELC is separate from the organizations on campus," Rodrigues said. "None of the workers are students here with the exception of three paid student assistants. The foundation will oversee the running for children and families. The ELC will no longer be existing; the new place will be subsidized by funding and run by the Cal State."

Newto fcenterGay,or studentsQuestioning, Intersexor A2008 f Bisexual, Transgendered, slated f and lly center ASI seeks und Lesbian, BY KELLY CORRIGAN Pride Staff Writer Associated Students Inc. is looking to build another branch of services for CSUSM students. By the fall of 2008, ASI hopes to complete the construction of the Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Queer Intersex and Ally Center. The center is still in its early stages, but with a recently appointed committee, ASI will examine the LGBTQIA centers on other campuses and look to other models for CSUSM's center. Former ASI President, Roy Lee said, "It has always been a goal for this university to have this center. Whether it be University operated or ASI, the intent, to my knowledge has always been there. As ASI has grown, questions about the third center being started, seeing as the Women's Center and Cross Cultural Center have been established, the goal for this center's construction and formation began. The ASI BOD has voted unanimously to research and strategically open the LGBTQIA Center by 2008." . ASI Arts and Sciences Representative, Joshua Lovelace .and Bryce Manning, President of LGBTA, have been appointed as the co-chairs for the LGBTQIA Center planning committee. "Our job is to create a proposal for the ASI Board of Directors to review and approve," Lovelace said. "This coming Friday w6 are planning to have a brainstorming session. All students are welcome. We will discuss ideas for a mission statement, programming etc. on May 4 and go from there."

Kabir explained some techniques and facts surrounding the Afghanistan sport. The point that enraptured the interest of the audience most was the kite string.

S., it's even a smaller percentage, so I want you to get clear of not only the privilege but of the responsibility you have." Rev. Dr. Washington asked each student to partner up with someone he or she did not know. Each student then discussed in partners, how they felt about difference and real conversation about diversity. Rev. Dr. Washington discussed the terms authenticity and honesty and expressed his hope for students to engage in authentic conversation. "Because we all know that we can be honest, without being authentic," he said. When Rev. Dr. Washington asked the crowd what the students' hopes for the evening were, one student said, "I just hope that we don't have to all come together in order for us to open our eyes to say that we need this. Why do we have to come together? Why can't we just do this on our own? Why do we have to come together and say, 'Oh? Yeah, huh.' We should already be doing this." During the next part of the evening, Rev. Dr. Washington asked students to examine the dynamics of his or her own existence. "What does it mean when there's a woman CEO or a woman vice president where there's never been a woman vice president and now all the people who report to her are men? What does that mean? What are the dynamics that show up when that's the difference?" Rev. Dr. Washington asked. When speaking on race, Rev. Dr. Washington said, "How many folks have ever had a conversation with somebody who didn't want to have it? Does that need for that conversation go away? I have been saying in sessions, we've been talking about talking about race for fifty years but we've not had a real conversation about it." In groups of four, students sat in chairs, knee to knee and engaged in conversation with students they had never met prior to the evening. Each student was given five minutes to identify his or herself through: race, religion, nationality, orientation, ability, gender, class and age. Next, each student answered questions stating what category he or she was most conscious of and why. Students also had to tell their peers of a time when he or she treated others less than- because of who they were. Some students found that they could relate to each other in more than one way. Once the session finished, Rev. Dr. Washington divided the room into two sections. Students sat in rows of chairs, facing each other. Rev. Dr. Washington paced back and forth down the middle and told students that if they felt comfortable, he or she could stand when he asked questions students found to be true to him or her, but students were not allowed to speak. In the act of standing up, Rev. Dr. Washington said that by answering to the questions asked, each student would be a representative of a particular group. With some humor, Rev. Dr. Washington shared with the students, "When they see me, they see big black man. One word. Bigblackman. They say, 'Oh! bigblackman!' They say, 'stay far away.' Now I can't control any of that. But it does matter that I know that." Rev. Dr. Washington proceeded, "If you are a first generation college student, please stand," Rev. Dr. Washington said. "Notice who's with you. Notice who's not." At this, each student who stood, scanned the room, and each student who sat, looked up. "If you ever feared for your safety because of your gender please stand," Rev. Dr. Washington said, "Notice who's with you. Notice who's not." Most of the women in the room stood, and most men sat looking up. Some questions spurred more emotional responses than others. From the experience as a whole, Freshman Bill Rhein said that he would "not take anything for granted anymore." Junior Angela Stubbs, said, "I can't understand why everyone couldn't attend and students had to R.S.V.P? You only find this stuff in college. It's symbolic of what our country feels about it. People are talking about it, but they're not really talking about it." The event was co-sponsored by Advisor Academy and Student Affairs Professional Development Team and included representatives of Student Development Services, ASI and University Village. From BARRAZA, page 1 T HE^PRIDg From SPEAKER, page 1 fortune of being on a diverse campus. We have the amazing good fortune of being in a room with folks who don't look like us, who do look like us, who think like us and who don't think like us. Who come from cultures and histories and families and communities that are like ours and they're not like ours, and that's an amazing world to be in. It's the world that we're in, but often we actually don't look at each other and say, I see you, I hear you, and let's learn from each other. You all, are the future. You're my hope. You're why I do what I do. You have an amazing ability to shape the future. And to shape it in a way that sees difference, embraces difference, and works together in a way that we actually create communities where we see and respect each other." This, Blanshan said, was the reason why each person gathered for an evening with Rev. Dr. Jaime Washington. Rev. Dr. Washington began the evening's conversation by speaking on leadership. "Much of the change that has happened around the world has been done by folks who look like you. Student leaders. On college campuses, and in the world. No major social change movement has ever happened without your influence and your power. I want you to recognize the importance of your role as student leaders today." When Rev. Dr. Washington told students that only 16% of citizens in the United States have advanced degrees, he said, "You will go out for the community." Like most 21 year old college students, Lorena's Myspace is filled with pictures, and personal phrases describing herself. Currently, her Myspace page is filled with postings by friends expressing loss, condolences, and grief. Lorena had just celebrated her 21st birthday on April 6 . Celia Martinez shared, "She managed to fit in with everyone even though she was doing her own thing and being herself. She did not need to pretend to be someone else to feel that shefitin. She just did. Although she is gone, those of us who knew her and cared about her can still hear her distinctive voice, laughter in the air. It is still impossible to accept that we will no longer see her walking towards us on campus, or that we will no longer get those silly text messages from her when she thought about us. She reminded all of us...about some important lessons, to take time and appreciate friendships and to remind people of how much they mean to us because you never know when it will be the last time you get to give them a hug or tell them that you love them. We were all given the opportunity to see her one last time the week before she left us, yet none of us knew it would be the last."

Samara White, a current senior at CSUSM majoring in Visual and Performing Arts, said that since working with the kids and families at the ELC, she has created bonds with all of them. "Professors send kids here and are very pleased with what we have going on. We really teach the kids," White said. When the ELC moves, it will have a great impact on the teachers who work at the ELC because they have gained close bonds with the children. White added, "The teachers go out of their way to be here and do things for the kids. They [the directors in charge] have not asked what we need for the center. It's distressing that they ignored us in the vision for the new center. It's inexcusable. The kids are being transferred up there. The parents don't know anyone up there. How can parents trust people they don't know anything about with their kids? It's a disappointment. You'd think as a Cal State they would want people experienced, who have been here. Some teachers feel forgotten. As a student I'm disappointed with how they neglected staff here. Staff has always had open dialogue with the directors. They have never given us a meeting with them or shown up at our events." A meeting regarding the ELC and the future of its employees will take place on Tues. May 1 at 5 p.m. at the ELC. From CAMPUS READ, page 1 hand. Kite enthusiasts stretch out the string, mold it with glass, and sand it down with sandpaper to smooth it out. When the kites are soaring in the sky they can reach up to three miles high. There are tricks for dipping and wrapping around the opponents' kites in hopes of snapping their string, retrieving their kite, and achieving ultimate bragging rights. Kabir explained that he could wear gloves for kite fighting, but that it ruins all the pleasurefull satisfaction from the sport. As Kabir demonstrated the sharpness of the string, he stated, "These cuts and stitches are from this. Sometimes my hand is bleeding all over. It [the string] is sharp, but strong at the same time." The kites are made by hand with thin paper, and moist bamboo forms into the desired shape. Kabir has been participating in the sport since he was about five years old, and he now owns over 2000 kites. Professors Sherri Douglass and Pamela Strieker collaborated on the event which was in synch with the campus read and a GEL 101 class. Funding was sponsored by the American Democracy Project and the First Year program. Part of ADP's mission is to enhance civic engagement within our campus community, and in the larger community. After the kite flying demonstration, a book discussion was held for the campus read, "The Kite Runner," a story of a young kite fighter in Afghanistan with immense cultural insights. Professor Pamela Strieker responded with her reaction of the event, "I think the book discussion went well and those present learned a great deal about Afghanistan and Afghani culture and they also learned that in the end, we are all not so different from one another." A few copies of the campus read are still available. Contact either Professor Pamela Strieker, at stricker@csusm. edu or the Office of Community Service Learning located in the Faculty Center in Kellogg Library. From LGBTQIA, page 1 Felipe Robinson-Zanartu said, "The committee will visit different centers and see how they were structured so we have an idea of what to look for and what to model it as. That's exactly how we modeled our Women's Center. We didn't start by making stuff up." Felipe said that the center could potentially provide counseling services or offer a place for students to hang out. "It goes with ASI's core value of diversity, bringing in all types of values, opinions, and serving 100 percent of students," RobinsonZanartu said. Lee said, "I see the center being an inclusive and educational venue where students, any student, may come in. In regard to programming, I think the opportunity that lies ahead is the ability to educate our North County San Diego community about these issues and provide any support and ser, vices." When speaking of the LBGTA club on campus, Robinson-Zanartu said, "They're a very big club on campus that's done a lot of programming with Student Life and Leadership. And with the C3 and with ASI's goals of fostering awareness and education and student life. That's what we want to with the LBGTQIA Center." As of now, Robinson-Zanartu said, "We do have a really tight budget. We have no money allocated toward the center." In order to fund the center, ASI will first look outside of CSUSM. To do so, ASI has hired Rodger D'Andreas as an advisor for the LGBTQIA Center. D'Andreas will also serve as the advisor to the Women's Center. "He's going to look for all the different funding possibilities," Robinson-Zanartu. "This will be via grants and from supplemental funding wherever we can find it. But because he's so good at doing that, that's one of the reasons we hired him. We're looking to have it funded from the outside. Then once we have the budget situation under control, then we could have money put into it." With two centers on campus including the Women's Center, the Cross Cultural Center, and the upcoming LGBTQIA Center, ASI recognized the need for representation among an additional slew of clubs and organizations. At a recent board meeting, ASI's Aamara Ysrael introduced a new position— a Social Justice Officer. "He or she is in charge of creating a Multicultural Committee of all different clubs, whether it be the German Club, the French Club, MEChA, we have a whole list of clubs and organizations, to try to incorporate everyone into ASI and have the multicultural perspective," Robinson-Zanartu said. The position of the Social Justice Officer is appointed by ASI President Caitlin Gelrud and must be approved by ASI's Board of Directors. The position is currently open to any student who would be willing to serve CSUSM as the Social Justice Officer. —i UNITED STATES ARMY HEALTH CARE SEROEAKT FIRST C lASS (S3PC) W AUD $ 58) 4 954598~-Wotk # 77) 722-23 l (*-Citt Timothy.W«u<J@us atec.acrmy.mil OT/PT/R NURSE CORPS ADN RNs for Army Reserves Cash bonus Financing for BSN Local Employment Advanced nurse training available: CRNA, LTHET, C C.

The virtual tours not only allow users to zoom into any place around the world, but it also provides information pertaining to the chosen location. The website claims to provide a multitude of multimedia information "from the web community and popular sources like National Geographic"; users are also provided with "Geographic Web and Featured Content layers as well as layers for 3D buildings, parks, schools, hospitals, airports, shops and more," states the website. For those whom need practical local information, the website also provides driving directions and makes it easy to "layer multiple searches, save results to folders, and share placemarks with others." Book marking or rather, "placemarking" locations, permits users to save the places they have visited along with customized additional information added to the "placemark." It is clear that Google Earth provides a plethora of resources to users around the globe, but perhaps more importantly, it exposes the devastation taking place in Darfur. When the fiveletter word, "S-u-d-a-n", is typed into the search bar, the website displays a world of its own - far from any location one would "placemark" as a vacation spot. The screen shows two types of fire icons: one orange and red, the other completely red. The orange/red fire represents damaged villages and the completely red fire represents destroyed vil- lages. As the destroyed and damaged villages are homes to many, those homes are represented by light and dark blue icons labeling them as either "refugees" or "internally displaced" individuals. Where one would be excited to click on the multimedia icons in any other given location, these icons only unfold the tragedy that has befallen the men, women and children of Darfur. Videos and pictures give testimonies of the people who have been afflicted by the genocide sweeping across Sudan. Upon reading testimonials, seeing pictures and watching movies - the website provides a link to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum (USHMM), where users can find out more information about the crisis in Darfur, how to help, and "bear witness" to the achingly horrible violence that is occurring everyday. The entire world is now able to witness mass genocide - however it is up to users to seek the knowledge.

BY SOPHIE BRINK Pride Staff Writer The Arthritis Foundation invites the community to par- ticipate in its? annual San Diego Arthritis Walk. To be held at Embarcadero Park North on Sunday, May 20, the Arthritis Walk is an opportunity to help the 46 million people with doctor-diagnosed arthritis. Arthritis affects men, women, and children of every race and ethnic group and is America's leading cause of disability. Over 700,000 residents of San Diego and Imperial Counties live with arthritis, nearly 3,500 of them children. The Arthritis Walk is an opportunity to honor and to help improve the lives of friends, loved ones, and community members afflicted with the debilitating condition. Funds generated by the event will be used by the Arthritis Foundation in its ongoing effort to "help individuals take control of arthritis by providing public health education; pursuing public policy and legisla- tion; and conducting evidencebased programs to improve the quality of life for those living with arthritis," according to the foundation's website (www. arthritis.org). Those who wish to participate in the San Diego Arthritis Walk can register online to form or join a team. Once registered, participants can set up their own personal Web page and begin raising funds using the online fundraising tools provided by the foundation. At the event, according to the 2007 San Diego Arthritis Walk homepage, participants may choose from a three-mile or one-mile walk route; write an inspirational message on the Wall of Heroes; wear a blue "hero" hat if they have arthritis; and enjoy the f un, festivities and f ree health information. There is no fee to register, but a participant must raise a minimum of $100 in order to receive an Arthritis Walk tshirt. The event schedule is as follows: May 18 @ 5 p.m.: Online registration closes. May 20 @ 7 a.m. - 8:15 a.m.: Registration and t-shirt pick up . 8:15 a.m. - 8:30 a.m.: Warm up and announcements 8:30 a.m. - 10 a.m.: 5K Arthritis Walk at the Embarcadero Park North May 30 @ 5 p.m.: Online donations close. Get ready for the 2008 Walk! BY TIFFANIE HOANG Pride Staff Writer Going the extra mile: Local Arthritis Walk Image courtesy the Arthritis Foundation Getting a summer job BY JONATHAN THOMPSON Pride Staff Writer Summer is fast approaching. During summer, some Cougars go back to their home dens, some stay here at CSUSM, and some vacation around the world. Regardless of the destination, all Cougars need money during the summer. One way to ensure a supply of money consists of working during the summer. All Cougars should be aware of the basics when applying for a job. Despite the current lack of seriousness in today's college culture, first appearances matter the most. When applying for a job make sure to groom neatly meaning no crazy hair dyes, no overrun sideburns, and no just woke up before coming to interview hairdos. Dress professionally even if the job of interest is the local donut shop. Dressing professionally consist of a dress shirt, tie, dress shoes and slacks for male Cougars, and non-revealing blouses, skirts or slacks, and dress shoes for female Cougars. Keep eye contact, shake hands firmly, and formally introduce yourself to all personnel. CSUSM's Career Center website (www. csusm.edu/careers) offers loads of information regarding summer jobs and internships. One summer job opportunity provided through a link on the website is a job involving "campaigns to stop global warming pollution and promote clean, renewable energy alternatives." Another links offers a job in painting residential and commercial for the summer/The web- site also offers aid in creating resumes and an online interview practice program with over 1,500 mock interview questions. Another website offering advice for job-hunting Cougars is Monster (www. monster.com). Monster has over 75 million registered users. Monster users post their resumes at no charge, allowing interested companies to view them. Interviews are highly important when applying for a job. In addition, Monster recommends further involvement in job hunting outside of just posting a resume. Wendy S. Enelow, a Monster Contributing Writer, explains, "Writing powerful thank-you letters is not just a formality. Thank-you letters are marketing tools that can have tremendous value in moving your candidacy forward and positioning you above the competition." James Gonyea, another Monster Contributing Writer, proclaims "Discover the Work You Were Born to Do" in his article on how tofinda job you will enjoy by answering a set of 20 questions. Career Builder (www.careerbuilder. com) also provides information on jobs and is similar to Monster. A quick search in sales in San Marcos, CA resulted in 13 hits. The 13 job listings offered jobs from selling furniture, toflowers,and even cell phones. Like Monster, the website allows users to upload resumes quickly and free. Post Resume (www.postresume.com), similar to Career Builder and Monster, also allows the postirig of resumes at no charge. The website suggests "Rewrite/update/rework your resume to reflect your current career objectives. Remember that your resume speaks volumes about you, particularly if you're looking to shift gears into a new field in which you have no directly applicable experience. Be sure to note your skills and capabilities, the personal qualifications that you will bring to a job rather than industry-specific experience. And, emphasize transferable skills such as leadership, flexibility, teamwork, and problem-solving. Also, be sure to highlight prior measurable/demonstrable accomplishments." The upcoming 2007 San Diego County Fair "Salute to Heroes" (www.sdfair. com) begins June 8th and ends July 4th. The event creates numerous opportunities for employment. Such job opportunities include shuttle drivers, stagehands, ticket sellers, and even security positions. The excitement and proximity of the San Diego County Fair smells like a perfect catch for any Cougar. If finding a job seems traumatic and stressful, take into account a real experience from a fellow Cougar. "I was once hired because I looked preppy and had no friends. I rolled in wearing flip-flops, a Volcom short sleeve t-shirt, board shorts and sunglasses. My boss felt sorry for me and hired me," said Business Administration Major Kyle McClellan. So, as the few weeks left of school come to a close, begin the job search now to ensure afinanciallyburden free summer. �Halfofus.com Website of the Week: BY AMANDA ANDREEN Pride Staff Writer reaches those young people who need help the m ost" Halfofus.com aims to join, support and inform college students about mental health issues, while also allowing students to guide the direction of the site with their personal testimonials and feedback. The website offers students exclusivity by linking students to their own school's specific programs on mental health and depression, and provides students with national resources as well. Topics addressed on the site include: depression, suicide, bipolar disease, eating disorders, anxiety, stress, alcohol use and drugs. One particular service offered through the site is an anonymous screening tool for students to help them understand, cope with and take further action should they feel they have an emotional disorder. Halfofus.com is a "safe space" that provides students with the opportunity to explore their feelings and emotions through useful resources, and presenting advice on how to reach out to a friend, as well as ways to combat depression. . Featured tools on the website include: an action center to facilitate students who wish to get more involved in mental health awareness, with information on how to start an "Active Minds student advocacy chapter" on their campus; an anonymous self-evaluation screening tool that was developed by the Medical Center of Duke University, giving students individualized feedback; "Through Half of Us, mtvU and The Jed Foundation want to initiate a public dialogue to raise awareness about the prevalence of mental health issues on campus and connect students to the appropriate resources to get help," states halfofus. com. Halfofus.com is just one of the many resources available through The Jed Foundation (an organization leading the nation in suicide prevention and helping to educate college students about mental health and mental health services) and ULifeline (a program run by The Jed Foundation). Launched in November of 2006, the Jed Foundation paired with mtvU to create a campaign to heighten awareness about mental health issues and their prevalence on college campuses across the nation by linking students to the right resources. In a press announcement released by mtvU, Half Of Us "represents the reality that nearly half of all college students have felt so depressed they could not function. Suicide is the second leading cause of death among college students, and the number one cause of suicide is depression. In an effort to reverse these trends, Half of Us will initiate a public dialogue that begins to de-stigmatize mental health, encourages more young people to seek out ways to improve their state of mind, and m Mv ass » Tiies •'1 W ed Cilmb in the • • French Grammar ' - Executive's Chair Workshop , "Developing Your .:• lOto 11:50 a.m. Markstein 125 •• Use of Articles & • Negatives* • ' ; .

As one of the most visited places in Morocco, it comes as no surprise that it offers a real sumptuous shopping experience; of course you are expected to haggle hard! In a city full of talented artists of llVilV «MUÍ many disciplines— especially leather working, wood and metals, there is no shortage of venders to try out your negotiating skills and it really is a fun thing to do. Marrakesh is also known as the "Red City," possibly due to the abundance of its ochre colored buildings, and it was the capital of Morocco off and on for a few hundred years. The first thing that a visitor to the place will notice when disembarking the plane, l^il^i is the stunning snow-capped High Atlas Mountains that surround the area; however, the awe does not end there. Beyond the city walls, resides such an unfamiliar collision of smells, sights and noise that it can be tricky to maintain your sense of direction, not good when you are trying to find your accommodations! Donkeys and carts are a major form of transportation, as are diesel powered mini motorbikes, so it is inevitable that extremely potent fumes hit the nose as you meander through the narrow streets. Venders in tiny shops line the streets as do countless motorbike repair shops and you really have to be careful in navigating your way around; people and animals are everywhere and there seems to be no rules with regard to slaloming a motorbike at high speed through the throngs of walkers.* Most streets seem to lead to the famous Djemaa el-Fna, a huge central square full of activity. Here you will find performers of every kind, from snake charmers to story tellers/Animals are everywhere too, donkeys and mules tirelessly haul THE PRIDE their cargo and performing monkeys hop around their owners shoulders. Naturally pick pockets abound and you may encounter a few solicitations for henna hand painting or merchandise, so it is important that you do not become too mesmerized by the fantastical scenes around you. Also overlooking the hive of activity is the ancient 253-ft tall Prayer tower or minaret, of the Koutoubia mosque, a. beautiful structure complete with huge stork nests at the top. Five times a day there is a call to prayer from the minaret which adds to the feeling of wonderment of the place; there really is nothing more beautiful than hearing the first cali just before dawn. Linked to the Djemaa el-Fna is the extensive network of the souqs an absolute must to explore. Everything you could possibly imagine is sold here, including things you would probably not like to imagine, such as leopard skins that you will find in some of the apothecary stalls. However, I believe that it is important to keep an open mind and, above all, be respectful to the Moroccans right to practice what they believe in, you are after all a visitor in their culture. Aside from shopping, I really recommend soaking in other things. Take in the museums and the gorgeous Yves St. Laurent gardens. Wonder at the Moroccan Saadian architecture amidst the Saadian Dynasty tombs and, for the ultimate in relaxation, pay a visit to one of the numerous steam baths or Hammans for an olive soap scrub down or simply sit and people watch whilst sipping delicious mint tea at a café in the Djemaa el-Fna. In all, Marrakesh will provide memories of a timeless place and you will no doubt be keen to return, it really can be a wonderful immersion into an enchanting and exhilarating culture. �OPINION THE PRIDE Tuesday; May 1, 2007 Jock Talk With Josh: Yankees vs Rod Sox BY JOSH SANDOVAL Pride Staff Writer I am so sick of the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees. The sports world loves this rivalry, but I am completely over it. The last straw for me came last Thursday. I was sitting in my COMM 440 class with, Dr. Bud Morris. Every week at that time I'm usually struggling tofinda topic to write about, and last week was no different. My next step at that point is to ask my buddy Mike Millburn for a topic. I respect his suggestions since he's also in the sports business, but I could tell it was a slow sports news day when he told me the biggest story was about a sock. That's right, a sock. Not just a regular white gym sock, but a bloody sock that was worn in 2004. The significance of a bloody sock, you ask? It was worn by Curt Schilling in the 2004 playoffs when the Red Sox came from behind from a three games to nothing deficit against the Yankees before going on to win the World Series. Schilling showed great courage at the time for pitching with a torn tendon in his ankle. The blood on the sock came from his sutured ankle that the training staff did up for him twice during the playoffs. The reason this * sock has emerged almost three years later? Because Gary Thorne, a baseball announcer said that one of Schilling's teammates told him that it was red paint, and not blood on the sock. That was the lead story on the 3PM Sportscenter last Thursday. ESPN spent seven minutes discussing a red sock from the Red Sox. What may be most disturbing is that red sock sits in Cooperstown at the Baseball Hall of Fame. When the museum closes at night I can imagine all the baseball head plaques wondering where 3 snnam..Mrm 9 8 6 1 5 the nasty smell is coming from. I can imagine the plaques of Reggie Jackson and Lou Gehrig looking at one another and accusing Babe Ruth as the source of the smell. Then Ted Williams' plaque jumping in and explaining that there's a bloody sock from the Red Sox World Series Championship. I can imagine all of that because the sports world would like you to believe that even the Red Sox and Yanked Hall of Fame plaques don't like each other. Seriously, though. The Red Sox and Yankees played a three game series two weeks ago and all three were on national telecasts, ESPN broadcasted the Friday and Sunday night games while Fox 6 7 2 T he o bjective of the game is to fill all the blank squares in a game with the c orrect numbers. There are three r ules: 5 2 6 *Every column of 9 numbers must include all digits 1 through 9 in any order Évery 3 by 3 subsection of thè 9 by 9 squaré must include all digits 1 through 9 s ! i 9 L 6 "1 Z if Z 8 £ Ez P L; £ 9 s £ P 6 i 9 Ï -5.V.

The season is only a month old and both teams have already made more appearances on national television than most other teams will have all season long. Back to the red sock. Thorne actually held an impromptu news conference to discuss the "controversy" once Mirabelli denied ever saying that it was paint, and not blood. A press conference over a bloody sock. I think that may be a sign of the Apocalypse or hopefully the downfall of this played out rivalry.

A native to North County and a UCSD graduate, Martin Storrow preaches a peachy blend of acoustic folk and poppy jams. "I think in college when everyone is so focused on the outcome, so focused on the piece of paper, the result, the grade— [it's important to] just find a fulfillment in the process. Find the fulfillment in every step along the way, and don't worry too much about the outcome," said Storrow. "If you really want it, it will happen," he continued, addressing the challenges of following one's dream and career aspirations. After a long haul oftouring last winter - "150 days on the road," claimed Storrow - he's back in town for a bout of relaxation and regeneration to finish his first ^olo full-length album with producers Peter Spragu6 and Daniel Diaz. "It's been really nice to just be home," said Storrow, "and I think it also helps the art too. Being homfe and connecting with these old relationships that I've had and being in this emotional space of familiarity—that really breeds good art, I think." Anticipated to be released later this summer, some of the highlights awaiting listeners on the yet to be named new album are tracks like "Angel of the Moment," "Midnight Daydreams," and "Ugly." "Everything from songs I wrote six years ago, to songs that I wrote yesterday are going to be on this album," said Storrow. "The songs stem from the same place, which is a very honest place." One of the featured tracks that .will be on the new album is "Angel of the Moment." "For me," explained Storrow, "that song is about all of us in our own capacity to be someone's angel, which I think is such a powerful thought, so I'm excited about that song and what it says." Formerly the frontmanforThe Storrow Band, Martin Storrow is no stranger to the local or even national music scene and his music is as honest and captivating as ever. "I'm sure you've listened to a song and thought: 'that song is about me, that's what I wanted to say, and this person said it.' As a [song-writer] when I hear that, there's a part [of me] that's like 'oh crap, what now?' [Thinking] that now I can't write that song because someone else already said it," said Storrow. "But to be able to do that—to be able to connect—it's not just a destination as much as it is a process, and that's where my fulfillment comes from, from that process...there's no point that I'll reach where I'll say 'I'm done being a song-writer.'" Admitting to having played over 350 shows within the past few years on the road, when asked how he keeps his performances fresh and unique, he replied, "I think the trick to keeping it fresh is a) remembering exactly why I do this, and b) playing stuff that I like and enjoying myself." Entertaining a cozy and intimate listening experience, Martin Storrow's "show slash workshop" is fun and memorable, complete with Storrow's special touch of humor and charm. Catch Martin Storrow at "It's a Grind Coffee House" off of Rancho Sante Fe in San Marcos, every Tuesday and Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. through May.

JMthJhe^anticipationof M ay-4-nearing, audiences across the world are getting tickets for the showing of "Spider-Man 3" in the hopes of seeing Spider-Man (Tobey Maguire) square off against the New Goblin (James Franco), Venom (Topher Grace) and the Sandman (Thomas Haden Church) in what may be considered the best "Spider-Man" yet. At the start of the film, Peter Parker (Maguire) is at the top of his class in school while, Spider-Man is receiving approval from the entire city of New York. Mary sour concoction is also the perfect decoration for any well-manicured hand on any given occasion. This juicy spin on a classic martini could have originated from one of three scenarios in my opinion; the first of which is in the spirit of the evil queen in Snow White, who, as the fairly tale says, tricked Snow White into eating the poisoned apple. The second of which is the telltale biblical story of the temptation of the Eve with apple in the Garden of Eden. Perhaps the creator of the Appletini felt tempted to mess with a good thing (the original martmi). Although none of these possibilities a?e very likely, this sinful indulgence is a sugary twist on the timeless martini, bound to delight and satisfy. Jane Watson (Kristen Dunst) is living her childhood dream and is a star of a Broadway show, while Harry Osborn (Franco) is stilWooking to avenge his father's death. With everything going so well, it only seems right that outside forces would begin to play a role and bring in a lot of drama. When a strange black creature from out of this world takes over the Spider-Man suit, Peter Parker becomes a whole new character. At the same time, a new freelance photographer, Eddie Brock, (Grace) competes with Peter Parker in taking SpiderMan's photo. With the addition of Grace, the audience receives a well-balanced cast. Photo by Amanda Andreen I The Pride .With many subtle variations of the newly found classic floating around, my . favorite version of the smashingly appetizing Appletini is as follows: 1 1/2 ounce Smirnoff Green Apple Twist Vodka 1 ounce DeKuyper Sour Apple Pucker schnapps Pour all ingredients into a shaker. Fill with ice. Shake well and then pour the mix into a martini glass and garnish with an apple slice or a maraschino cherry, Ah yes,: the Appletini, one of my favorites and soon to be yoursi; Johnny Appleseed sure had the right idea; it is just too bad it took the rest of us so long to catch on. As things begin to settle down in the movie and the storylines are slowly immerging, Maguire and Franco are able to have fim with4heif-eharaeters-by over emphasizing their emotions, which brings humor to the film. With things slowly going back to normal, the audience gets sucked into the heavy dosages of drama instead of the action packed movie viewers would expect. With the longevity of the drama, the film's humor passes the time as well as the scattered battle scenes throughout the film. The best parts of thisfilmare the action scenes - from the spectacular animation Movie Review Image courtesy of Sony Pictures of Spider-Man saving the innocent, to Peter dancing up a storm, to the very well choreographed battles between the good ""guys and the not-so-evil bad guys. The action scenes allow the audience to forget that the story moves slowly. With some amazing one-on-one battles, the finale is what makes the movie what it is, another blockbuster smash. With all the story lines coming to a close, the movie tries to pull tears from the audience as the emotional rollercoaster of Spider-Man and friends comes to an end. And this very well could be thefinalchapter of Peter Parker and Spider-Man. house in reference to a popular BY JONATHAN THOMPSON Jpride Staff Writer * ¡ gggj on Qhxgda oV southern s We. ¡ ¡¡¡I ¡ g j m i | rn I H P | g tass bottles are tinted dark green and : | Friday, night, books in a, mountainous adorned with red and gold bottle caps, stack on the left, bundles of pens and pencils The bottle caps crown a beer with an alcool the right, and a computer screen in the hoi by volume of 4.8 percent.

Only 838 students voted for CSUSM's 2007-08 student representation. Last year, 578 students voted for ASI representatives. The process of electing ASI representatives has not changed in the past three years. Each year, voting is conducted online, one week before spring break. This year, an email was sent to each student on Wed. March 22, reminding students to vote online. Six out of twelve candidates ran unopposed. Former Student Representative at Large Conrad Ottey returned for a second term, as Vice President of Marketing. At 584 votes, Ottey collected the highest number of votes compared to the rest of the candidates.

Jay Franklin, president of CSUSM's LGBTA, headed the theatrical event on Wed. March 21 that included guest speaker Rodger D'Andreas-Wahl. Franklin explained, "The equinox, thefirstday of spring, this is a time of equal day and equal night. Full equality is all we seek." The procession included flower girl Sheena L.

The wedding party was fancifully dressed in black tuxedos, and elegant white gowns with contrasting sneakers. The mock priest residing over the festive nuptials was Richard Perez. Onlookers cheered as the two couples approached the priest, and switched positions to represent a gay and a lesbian couple in a wedding ceremony. Perez, the representative priest, offered a serene prelude, stating, "Hooray, we are here to celebrate, to honor, to laugh, to dance, to be glad because the inevitable By the Numbers percent of enrolled students voted in the effettori/ dollars in student f ees semesterfy increase with Health Services referendum, percent of 18-24 year olds voted in the 2004 U Presidential Elections, voles for ASf President elect Caitlin Geirud, thousand dollars of student monies controlled by ASI if the Chancellor's Office presents an offer that's in line with the fact finder."

It is counterproductive to talk about strike dates and locations while the process is still continuing." On Wed. March 25, President Karen Haynes and ASI President Roy Lee held a student forum in the President's Boardroom. Some students voiced their concern to Dr. Haynes and Lee regarding the potential CFA strike. When Dr. Haynes learned that 94% of the CFA voted to go on strike, she said she was "not surprised, understanding that the faculty need to continue to advocate for what they believe is a fair compensation package." One student told Dr. Haynes that she could make a difference by looking at the CFA and CSU situation in a different way in order to find a solution to the problem. The student said, "If you look at it differently, as a student body president, do you realize that you can make a name for yourself that would be national? It's an opportunity to redefine the problem in a different way." Dr. Haynes replied by stating that there are significant constraints to the unionized environment and that the ability to provide compensation is removed. "There are eleven unions in the system," Dr. Haynes said. "[In] all of them, professional, technical, and service employees, in all of them, there are clear constraints. Administrators in a system like this are simply outside of the conversation. My excitement is going to be directed toward making this campus the best we can and not trying to change a 420,000 student and 23 campus union environment that is funded by the legislature." Dr. Haynes also mentioned how the system can change in order to avoid the current situation. Dr. Hayens said, "It starts with electing officials who are pro education." Patricia Worden, Vice President of Student Affairs, told concerned students that she would be emailing all students should CSUSM's faculty go on strike. CSUSM's homepage will continue to offer updated information on the condition of the CFA and CSU. princess, and we want the Disney marriage package. But one of my concerns is that marriage reinforces some very traditional gender and sexuality binaries that are not necessarily inclusive of all LGBTA people." Franklin also invited the audience to attend another event, "The Constitution and the Judge." Franklin handed out copies of pocket Constitutions and packs of red, white and blue seed packets, and said, "The seeds that are provided are so that you can sew the seeds of democracy in your own backyards." The event on the following day hosted Superior Court Judge David RubinfromSan Diego County. Rubin discussed marriage in relation to the constitution and cases relating to marriage.

The website claims to bibliographies in MLA format which are alphabetized and formatted for printing. MyBibPro allows users to create bibliographies in MLA and APA formats. The online product also offers easier citation of books through a database consisting of 18 million entries, an option to upload saved database citations, access parenthetical citation and footnote support, and store multiple lists in a personal account which can be accessed from any location as well as a customer support response within 36 hours of an original inquiry. MyBib requires users to manually enter each piece of information of data to generate a bibliography in MLA format such as author and year of publication. The task can be tedious. However, the formatting done by the website ensures a perfect bibliography in MLA format. MyBibPro requires users to merely enter the title while the website generates the remaining pieces of information needed to complete a bibliography in MLA and or APA format. Another benefit of utilizing EasyBib is saving time and energy. The website claims to reduce the time required for creating bibliographies by as little as half, and as much as two-thirds. During a test run on Stephan R. Covey's "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People," a conclusion could be made on the ease and swiftness provided by MyBib. The required information was manually entered and with the click of a button a proper bibliography was reproduced in MLA format and ready for direct printing. EasyBib seems to be the perfect solution for a complete and correct bibliography. Managing multiple sources, collecting relevant and correct information, and producing an accurate bibliography are a must with all of the required papers at CSUSM. Although CSUSM library's homepage offers adequate and efficient information on creating and citing sources in MLA, APA, and other formats all Cougars should be aware of, EasyBib can also be easily utilized to ensure truthful and proper bibliographies.

In other words, form follows function. If students are looking for healthy ways to make a lifestyle change and get into shape there are numerous resources on campus as well as on the internet that are free and easy to use. The website www. self.com has a program that challenges the user to get into shape in 3 months, with real workouts and healthy food suggestions.

However, above and beyond the aweAlthough I almost broke my rule about inspiring structure, and the cheeky Roman 'not arriving in a city after dark', the dusk soldiers who linger around it (be warned of the 'Eternal city' was not at all worrying they really act the part!) the magnificence as I settled down on the Terravision bus to of Rome lies in the fact that everything is the Termini train station.

Using my limited Italian, I managed sure to pay a visit to the Trevi Fountain, the to order a delicious meal of gnocchi in a Circus Maximus—a mass entertainment zesty garlic sauce.

First stop: the Colosseum. toline, and the various ancient catacombs— A visit to the Colosseum is seemingly a the list in endless. Being a fan of the artist mandatory thing to do in Rome. It really is Caravaggio, I sought out every place disone of the marvels of the world, and there playing his art, including those housed in is nothing like a wander around its ancient, the church of San Luigi dei Francesi: "The Calling of St Matthew," "The Inspiration of Saint Matthew" and "The Martyrdom of Saint Matthew." I also went on the Bernini trail; his wonderful sculptures are everywhere. In fact, it seems that around every corner there lurks another masterpiece, which brings me to another great aspect of the city: signposts. Little black signposts are all over the place pointing this way and that: "Trevi fountain this way ...the Pantheon this way..." you are absolutely cocooned in historical art. A visit to the Basilica di San Pietro in Vaticano (St. Peters Basilica), along with the Sistine Chapel in Vatican City is something that everyone should experience; it is a massive expanse of unimaginable beauty, and if you pop down on a Sunday, you will have a backdrop of beautiful, angelic hymns to accompany the sumptuous feast for the eyes. Rome is a grand place to visit any time of the year. I am more inclined to suggest the cooler months, just because it is less congested, however, the weather may not be the best. During a recent December trip there I got rained on rather badly. And, as luck had it, I was on a long walk to find the "Bocca Delia Verità," a large, round sculpture of a face with the famous "Mouth of Truth." The sculpture's name seems appropriate because it was widely believed at the time of its creation that if a liar was to put their hand in its mouth it would be bitten off! Apparently I am not a liar as my hand came out unscathed so it all turned out well, despite the pouring rain. Indeed, it was quite a f un evening after all, as at thé Boca Delia I met up with a fellow traveler and we had a great time exchanging travel stories as we walked through the pouring rain beside the ancient Circus Maximus. I have many fond memories of Rome; it really is an enchanting place and I fully believe that, regardless of whether you visit to embrace history and art, or simply relax and sip cappuccinos, you are bound to fall in love with the Eternal City. �O PINION THE PRIDE V ^ X A 1 N AV-ALN Tuesday, April 3, 2007 Jock Talk With Josh New opportunities this Spring BY JOSH SANDOVAL Pride Staff WriterI love my family, but I considered disowning them after what happened to me this Spring Break. The Friday that school let put I went to Lo$ Angeles for the weekend. I came back to San Diego on Sunday. I then left on Tuesday to Tucson, Arizona with my grandparertts to visit" family and go to baseball spring training. 11:30AM on Tuesday March 27,2007: We stop in Yuma, Arizona to gas up and get something to eat. My phone rings while I 'm eating. I don't pick up the phone because I don't recognize the number, and it's too loud in the restaurant to hear. The mystery number leaves a message. / Noon: I jump into the driver's seat of my car, grab my phone and listen to the message. My grandparents begin to chatter. "Hi my name i s -—-- and I am with the San Diego Padres Marketing department," the message starts. "Oh shit, please be quiet," I yell t omy grandparents. The me§sage goes on. "I would like to s et up an interviewrwith you on Wednesday or Thursday. Please call me back as soon as you can."^ 3 Ì2:Ì5PM: "Hi — , this is Joshua Sandoval returning your call. I am actually in Yuma, Arizona on my way to spring training in Tucson, Arizona so I can't make a Wednesday or Thursday meeting. Please give me a call back so we can set u p something, because I would iove to meet with you." 12:30PM: Back, on the road to Tucson. There are 40 MPH winds bursting across the freeway. We have been in the middle of dust storms for most of the t rip thus far. The phone rings. It's the call I've been waiting for all my life. I need to devote my full attention towards this call, so I pull over to the side of the road and answer, s "Hello?" "Hi, this is — with the San Diego Padres. We want you to come in on Wednesday or Thursday for an interview." "I'm- actually on my way to spring training as we speak. I'm coming back to San Diego on Friday?' "O.K. well how about Monday at 1PM at the Main offices at 100 Park Boulevard?" "Monday at 1PM sounds great," I gratefully agree to. I love my grandparents and I love my family in Tucson, but if the Padres said the interview had to be on Wednesday or Thursday then I would have turned the car right around. 3:16AM on Wednesday March 28, 2007: I can't sleep. Every time I pass out, I dream about working for the Padres and suddenly wake up. This is all that has been on my mind since I got the call. 10:08AM: I get a text message from Karin telling me she has a court side ticket to the Clippers game for me. She knows I'm out of town, but decides to rub it in anyway. 10:09AM: "I love my family... I love my family," I have to keep repeating this to myself so that I don't jump in my car and drive to Los Angeles. Luckily it's only the Clippers. If it was a court side ticket to a Lakers game I would ditch my family and would ask Jack Nicholson to be my new Uncle. I haven't been out of San Diego for 24 hours and I've already delayed My opportunity of becoming a Padre and sitting r f courtside at a Clippers game. 11:00AM: My Uncle Ray buys me a new suit. 1:00PM: My uncie, grandpa and I go to the Diamondbacks and White Sox game. D-baeks win 8-0. 6:45PM: I win $100 playing blackjack at a casino in Tucson. I'm starting to feel better about being in Tucson. I no longer have to convince myself that I really do love my family. I really have had some great opportunities in life thanks in part to my family. B y the time this article comes out, my interview will be over. Who knows if I will be a Padre by then?r Either way, I can't believe some of the things I have been able to accomplish with the help of CSUSM and my family. I have worked with the "San Diego Union-Tribune," "Associated Press," as^a scout for a sports agent, toured with standup comedians and.now maybe a job with the San Diego Padres. I may be getting a little sappy as the wind stretch of my college days are nearing* but it's hard to put into words how grateful I am to my family at home and at CSUSM.

Sunny with blue skies and a cool breeze, it was a perfect day for the Goodguys 7th Del Mar Nationals, held at the Del Mar Fairgrounds. Hours later a fog bank threatened to encroach upon the festivities, but nothing would deter the thousands of car enthusiasts from their yearly pilgrimage. Hot steel juxtaposed against a backdrop of Spanish mission architecture, an abundance of autos stock and ^H^^^^^SL modified, classics and kit cars - abounded, their jewel box hues a dazzling sight to behold. Candy, fire-engine and crimson reds mingled with rides of teal blue, glittering gold and Dreamsicle orange. In the O'Brien Hall, the elite hot rods cooled their tires in the cavernous space, contestants for the coveted Goodguys Street Rod d'Elegance award. They glistened under artificial lighting, while their less privileged yet still breathtak- • ing brethren dazzled in the sunlight. I Nearby, the Bing Crosby Hall housed ! the hundreds of vendors selling everything from custom headers to neon signs boasting retro images from the 1950s. For the kids, Goodguys offered a free model make-n-take on Saturday at 1 p.m. Kids could build their own model cars and keep them as souvenirs. For the adults, there I were how-to seminars from respected hot I rod builders and a meet and greet with hot-rod builderThom Taylor, •jk^ More vendors hawked H P H f e ^ their wares outside as H ^ H H k jubilant drivers cruised H I down the Del Mar HpNationals "Cruisin' B H P R F Lanes" in their cool creations. Barry Meguiar, host of Meguiar's "Car Crazy" television show, seemed omnipresent, his camera crew trailing behind as he sought out the hottest rides of the show. Ifc cial featured areas included Deuces are Wild, Homebuilt Heaven, Goodguys Pro's Pick Area, Ya Gotta Drive 'Em, Mighty Muscle, Fins are Fifty, Youngguys, and a showcase of woodies - for the uninitiated, these vehicles have bodies that are partially made of wood - called Good Wood. On display in a Spanish-style courtyard complete with bubbling fountain, the collection of woodies basked in the sunlight, decked out with surfboards and vanity license plates, while a live band played nearby. Meanwhile, thousands of car enthusiasts HBBP^ p erused H p i ^ ^ ^ the fantastic array of ^ wares offered by the various vendors and exclaimed over their favorite vehicles, while munching happily on traditional fair fare. The sheer diversity of attendees proved that one can never be too young or too old to appreciate the allure of the auto. Families, small children in tew, couples, groups of girls, and gaggles of guys all paid their money to see the show. Whether clad in casual jeans and t-shirts, raring to go in rockabilly, all dolled up as r etr| pinup kittens, or sporting cowboy boots | jid cowboy hats while cruising in a whii§ Cadillac, show-goers had one thing in common - a love for cars. The magnetic power of the hotrod does not discriminate.
