XXIV NO. 3 STUDENT LOANS: OUR LAST SOURCE Student dependence on borrowed money rising BY ASHLEY DAY PRIDE STAFF WRITER In today's world, some American college students have no choice but to take out student loans to fuel their secondary education. With institutions dangling "instant" money accompanied with low interest rates, students have an enticing offer that develops debt very early in life. Parents, teachers and elders tell youth that attending college and getting a degree is the key to success. Anthony P. Carnevale, a research professor and director of Georgetown University Center on Education and the Workforce, said, "College credentials are now a prerequisite for a middle class lifestyle." According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 70.1 percent of America's youth choose to pursue a college education.Finaid.org reveals 58.8 percent of undergraduate students take out loans to fund their life through college.

Financial Aid can walk you through the process of securing a loan. I would say it's fairly easy." Alisha Madison, a second year student at San Diego State University agrees with Rapp. "On a scale from 1-10,10 being the easiest, my loan process was probably an 8 .1 just had to pretty much click, activate and read the terms.

Rapp said, "The majority of students understand what they're getting themselves into. If they come to the fi- nancial aid department, we explain the process completely.

[Me] having to take out a loan has not changed any plans." Rapp feels the same way. She said, "Not in this century! People are broke. I don't think majors have anything to do with taking out a loan. Students depend on loans to live. If that's their only means to pay for education and to survive, then they have to go with it." More than 50 percent of the student population relies on loans to fund their way throughout college. Some of the reasons are their parents make too. much money, as determined by the federal government, or students' parents do not support them at all. These students decide to take on a loan. A clock on iinaid.org ticks the balance on" student loan debt. 850 trillion dollars is the latest estimate. Even so, this does not stop students from taking the loans. " I'd rather be taking out loans for school than not being able to go to school at all. Education is the most important thing anyone can have right now and I 'm not going to let the fear of being in debt affect my choice," Madison said. PHOTO BY • MASSAGEMARKETINGMENTOR. COM The Annual Health Expo BY MAYA LIFTON PRIDE STAFF WRITER Thursday was a good day at Cal State San Marcos as the annual health expo took place in the library plaza. The fair provided free food, massages, contests, and much more. 40 different organizations showed up to this event, each holding individual booths, which offered information on a particular aspect of health. Some of these organizations included North County health services, Children's Physicians medical group, The Clarke, and the Nürsing department. The nursing department had information on the amount of calories a person should be taking in per day. This number is based on your height, weight, and gender. Chelsea Witwer, a nursing student who helped put the booth together, told The Pride a shocking probability. "You don't think about what you're drinking. You can drink over half your calories per day, and people don't know this," said Witwer. People are misinformed about the amount of sugar drinks contain. They tend to misjudge the effect one drink could have on the body and drink to no limit. As a result, this misinformation has led to the obesity problem we face today. Witwer also provided information pertaining to the amount of calories certain drinks have, such as Starbucks coffee and Coca-Cola. "Between Starbucks coffee, Coca-Cola, Budweiser beer, and Snappie Iced Tea, Starbucks has the most calories." Even so, Witwer said there are 10 tablespoons of sugar in a Coca-Cola. A Better Tomorrow, another organization at the expo, is a treatment center that specializes in substance abuse and helps treat addiction. Eric Miller, the intake coordinator, said, "We work with the major insurance companies. We are one of the largest providers of substance abuse treatment centers in California. "Our facilities treat any kind of addiction," Miller said. "We also have an [adolescence] program and work with kids under the age of 18."

Indoor cycling will be held on brand new equipment at the University Village Apartments, and hip-hop dance and line dancing are both new and exciting options that will be joining student favorites like zumba and yoga. If you can still think of an excuse, here are five unbeatable reasons to join a class without delay. 1) It's free! We mentioned it earlier, but this means completely free.

You're already on campus, and no matter where you are on campus, Clarke Field House is a short walk away. 3) It's a fun way to add some newness to your life, whether that means new exercises, new workout buddies, or both. 4) A little exercise will actually make writing papers easier - no joke! British research has shown that mid-day exercise will enhance your mood and make you more productive. 5)The classes are built to suit everybody. "If you're a beginner, you're going to receive the basic instruction to get the basics.

Comprised of many different vendors selling their locally grown and homemade wares, farmers' markets offer consumers the rare opportunity to purchase food and goods direct from the source—fostering a human connection between consumers and those who nurtured their products to ripe perfection. This creates a unique shopping experience that keeps you, the environment, and the local economy strong and healthy. CSUSM hosts the San Marcos Certified Farmers' Market once a week. The market just celebrated its first anniversary, and hopes to continue raising student awareness and support of its services. Lome Scott, who manages this market as well as those in Valley Center and City Heights, describes'the market as a "nice environment," offering an exciting sensoiy experience of colorful sights, delicious flavors, and pleasant conversation. According to her, the market includes around 25 vendors selling "handmade artisan jewelry and clothes, really good artisan bread, local honey, an awesome variety of hummus, homemade butter with garlic, rosemary, or basil, sweet almond butter that's awesome on pancakes, award winning salsa with chips and tortillas, tamales, smoked fish with flavors that will really knock your socks off, oils, balsamic vinegars, stainless steel water bottles, really cool woven bags for shopping, and all kinds of recycled stuff and environmentally conscious items." If the food itself isn't enpugh to entice you to explore the plethora of outdoor stands, Scott invites students to consider the economic benefits of shopping at the farmers market. "The .dollar spent on a local business in the community has three times the impact on the local economy than if that money gets spent in a nationwide chain or big box store," she said. The more support the market receives, the more it can expand and gain more vendors. Buylocalthinkglobal.com describes how buying local food from farmers' markets benefits the environment as well as the economy. The site explains, "Transporting food long distarlces uses an incredible amount of fossil fuel that releases pollutants into the atmosphere contributing to global climate change and air pollution." Fresh, locally grown food is also a better choice for a healthy lifestyle. According to Scott, "The majority of the nutrients are still available when it's fresh, where as when it's been sitting around on the grocery shelf for a week, the nutrients get reduced every day after it is picked. The more alive your food is, the more alive you are!" The CSUSM Farmers' Market is held every Wednesday afternoon in the front parking lot off Craven Rd. Its operating hours are 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. and 1 p.m. to sunset in the winter season. Visit the market's information booth to learn about the Fresh Fund Program and other options available to federal assistance recipients (WIC, SSI, and EBT). The farmers' market also offers demonstrations and activities ranging from cooking demos to musical performances. To receive advance notice about these events, sign up for the e-mail list at the market. Notices will be sent weekly on Wednesday morning. Next on the event calendar is a dance demo on September 22.

Featuring locally grown and often organic produce, farmers' markets are the perfect place to find fresh, healthy choices and support the local agricultural community. The farmers' market experience stimulates every sense—the colorful array of food, the free samples of homegrown goods, and the pleasant conversation with local growers all help you to remember where your food comes from and appreciate its roots. During this late summer season, local markets have an abundance of tomatoes, herbs, and other garden goodies. This week's recipe features ripe tomatoes and fresh basil. According to healthfood-guide .com, tomatoes are high in lycopene, a powerful antioxidant that helps fight cancer. Studies have also suggested that tomatoes may help fight aging and degenerative diseases. Fresh, organic produce from the farmers market guarantees that the tomato's nutrient power is" at its peak! What better way to highlight this juicy fruit than a delicious batch of bruschettà? Although the name may sound fancy, bruschettà is one of the simplest, quickest ways to use your farmers' market finds. Enjoy this tasty Italian creation as an appetizer, a side dish, or a hearty snack!

Hastings (Nebraska) falls to 1-4. Despite the short turnaround time, the Cougars for the most part looked sharp, generating numerous scoring chances and Penalty kick downs Cougar women in overtime BY MICHAEL RAWSON In the afternoon game, a controversial call minutes into the first overtime handed the Master's College women the victory over the Lady Cougars, 1-0. Looking sluggish after a successful road trip to Arizona, Cougar men hold Master's College scoreless in tie BY MICHAEL RAWSON The men's soccer team took a big step defensively on Wednesday night, holding #22 The Master's College to a 0-0 draw in double overtime. But they sure could have used Brandon Zuniga. Last year's team MVP and star forward ran out of eligibility after the 2009 season, and Ron Pulvers knows it won't be easy to replace him. "Players like him showing flashes of real quality in the open field. CSUSM out-shot Hastings 22-4 and held a 6-3 advantage in corner kicks. The game's lone goal came late in the first half. A nice buildup resulted in Natalya Erbel feeding a pass to Rachel Schulte, who knocked it across the face of the goal to Lauren Johnson. Johnson expertly controlled the pass, and from the right side of the goal finished with a slicing shot past the keeper into the leftside netting. That would be all the scoring, as the second half saw the Cougars generate plenty more chances but not quite be able to finish. Keeper Kaycee Gunion was rock solid as usual in net, making a pair of saves and consistently making the right decisions. Cougar women's soccer will face a big test this Wednesday at home against Point Loma. Kickoff is at 3 PM. Pulvers' side spent most of the game in the middle of the field. The two teams traded mostly weak chances during regulation. Three minutes into overtime, Master's pushed the ball up toward the Cougar goal. A Mustang player went down near the 18-yard line. The foul looked like it could have been a free kick, but the official pointed to the penalty box. Andie Reyes easily put the chance into the right corner past All-American keeper Kaycee Gunion, who dove left. "For me, in an overtime game like that, you have to be one hundred percent committed to the penalty," said Pulvers. "I thought there were too many questions about whether or it was or not for it to be called, [but] we put ourselves in a bad spot on that particular play." "And whether the penalty was a penalty...that's certainly a questionable situation, but we TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 14TH, 2010 should have never been in that position to begin with, because we were just lazy in recovering defensively," said Pulvers. Amanda Diamond stopped five shots to record the shutout for the Mustangs. Gunion also saved five. The Cougars will play anmomentum and managing just two shots on goal. After a late foul in overtime, Cougar Captain Bradley Seidenglanz had the game's best chance on the ensuing free kick, but sent it sailing inches over the crossbar. Andrew Bussell made two key saves for CSUSM. Master's Defender Brian Gardner nearly put the game away in overtime, but his long attempt from the left side bounced harmlessly off the right post. The Master's College really come around once in awhile," the Head Coach told The Pride. "We'll miss him."

CSUSM is now 2-3-1 on the year. Westmont is 3-0-2. The Cougars got into a 2-0 hole, starting with a penalty kick goal from West- mont Doug Harrell in the 39th minute. Westmont added its second early in the second half, as a corner kick was headed into the lower corner of the net by Anthony Niboli in the 59th minute. CSUSM would respond though, as Sterling Petersen scored following a throw-in in the 79th minute, giving him his first goal as a Cougar. But CSUSM couldn't notch the equalizer, falling by that 2-1 margin. Kevin Ernst made 6 saves in net for the Coguars.

"[The Team's] work ethic ...has been awesome all season long. We've just showed some real inexperience in the games we've lost. Today, they showed a lot of maturity in being able to close the defending national runner-up to a draw." leading 7-3 in corner kicks. Taylor Schurman led the Cougars with three shots.

Having been together for nearly 10 years, The Walkmen's unique sound has been compared to that of The Cure, but they continue to stay themselves while making new additions to their sound with each album, choosing to break away from the more familiar independent and garage types of music like The Hives or The Strokes. They toured in support of their album to a few festivals last spring, including All Tomorrow's Parties in England, and Lollapalooza in Chicago. This month, The Walkmen are touring around the U.S., as well as Vancouver and Toronto, Canada. In support of their new album, The Walkmen are selling copies of "Lisbon" with original designs from etsy.com (check them out! http://www.etsy.com/shop/TheWalkmen). Weezer - "Hurley" - Epitaph Records When you see the cover of Weezer's new album there is no need to double take. Indeed, it is a photo of Jorge Garcia also known as "Hurley" from the television series "Lost." Whether or not there is a connection between this character and the album, "Hurley" is Weezer's eighth anticipated album. Weezer as a band has existed since 1992 and although they have expressed influence from The Pixies, Nirvana and Green Day, with each album their sound manages to stay original, yet always evolving. "Hurley," which is up for preview on their Myspace (http://www.myspace.com/weezer) shows off Weezer's signature rock sound that still manages to be new and even fun. The album also features Michael Cera providing back-up vocals on one of the tracks. The deluxe edition of "Hurley", which can be purchased on Itunes, includes a few bonus tracks and a cover of Coldplay's "Viva la Vida." Linkin Park - "A Thousand Suns" - Warner Bros. Records These days one needs only to mention Linkin Park and the tunes of "In The End," "Faint," and "Numb" begin ringing through ears. September 14th is the release date of their latest studio album "A Thousand Suns." Linkin Park, already known for their impacting lyrics and unique musical style, seem to have done it again. Many critics already praise this new album for its sound and impressive writing. Chester Bennington and Mike Shinoda continue to share vocals, which can be heard on the album's first single "The Catalyst," released this past August, along with other songs on the album. The band also worked off of their influence from the renowned hip-hop group, Public Enemy. Following "Minutes to Midnight," "A Thousand Suns" cumulates nearly two years of writing and recording into a fourth full-length album from the band known for their mixture of rock, rap and other devices, making Linkin Park a name to be recognized. CDS A ND DVDS "Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time" - Mike Newell "Just Wright" - Sanaa Hamri "Letters to Juliet" - Gary Winick "Just Wright" stars Queen Latifah as Leslie Wright, a physical therapist not seeking to "belong" to a man, living with her god-sister Morgan. Rapper Common plays Scott, a professional basketball player who takes a romantic interest in Morgan. Following a threatening injury that could affect Scott's career, he begins to see that Morgan was only in interested in him for the money and fame, and that Leslie, his new physical therapist, is the one who truly wants what is best for him and his future. The chemistry between the two actors (and music icons) flows well within the story and the feel of the film. This i s director Sanaa Hamri's seventh film, following works such as "Something New" and "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2." "Just Wright" is a film with a simple romantic plot that still has its charms. Sophie Hall visits Italy with her fiancée and encounters romance in a very unexpected way, turning into a sort of "Juliet" after finding a lost letter amongst the many love letters placed in the supposed real home of Juliet Capulet. Following this discovery, Sophie eventually finds the sender, Claire, and decides to help the woman find her long lost love, Lorenzo Bartolini. Along the way Sophie too discovers more about herself and her feelings as she travels alongside Claire's grandson Charlie. Director Gary Winick's previous works include "13 Going On 30," "Charlotte's Web," and "Bride Wars." Amanda Seyfried, Chris Egan and Vanessa Redgrave star in this sweet tale of discovering love -old and new - 2nd trusting destiny. A M A N D A S EYFRIED A NO VANESSA REDGRAVE Letters Juliet Based off of the "Prince of Persia" video game series, "Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time" follows just about the same premise as the Ubisoft game franchise. The film tells the story of Dastan and his discovery of a sacred dagger that can turn back time. With this knowledge he winds up on an adventure with a princess named Tamina, and unveils a web of political treachery amongst his own family. This film comes from director Mike Newell ("Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire") and producer Jerry Bruckheimer (producer of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" films) and is distributed by Walt Disney Pictures. Starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Ben Kingsley and Gemma Arterton, "Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time" is another action-driven, Disney-friendly film that both adults and kids can enjoy. �A&E THE PRIDE TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 14TH, 2010 APP OF THE WEEK NetNewsWire BY JIMMY PIRAINO PRIDE STAFF WRITER Ever get tired of going to your favorite blogs and news sites only to be bombarded by pop-up ads and useless blinking banners? Well Mac, iPad, and iPhone users now have a way to enjoy their favorite news stories without the advertisements, using the simple app NetNewsWire by NewsGator Technologies.

A FTE R ESIDENT EVIL: BYMILAPANTOVICH PRIDE STAFF WRITER "Resident Evil: Afterlife" is the fourthfilmin the "Resident Evil" series, based off of the popular video game franchise. With three films preceding it, «T one would assume that the story has beenfinelytuned and perfected with years of experience. However, what the audience gets instead is afilmcompletely lacking in story, credible dialogue, believable characters, or any sense of depth beyond the welldone 3D animation. With characters speaking in stilted military commands and a story that grows tedious and repetitive, the film seems to only be a 3D platform for returning writer and director, Paul W.S. Anderson. The film follows Alice (Milla Jovovich) in her continued, and nearly pointless, struggle to take down the Umbrella Corporation. Alice spends the beginning of thefilmin search of Claire (Ali Larter) and the rest of the survivors that she was separated from at the end of the previous film. The group had gone in search of the elusive Arcadia, a place of promised refuge from the dangerous T-virus that turns people into zombie-like monsters. Upon finding Claire, Alice joins a group of people who are trapped in the middle of Los Angeles, surrounded by the infected masses, with no way of escape. Within this group of stock characters is an ex-sports star (Boris Kodjoe), an arrogant Hollywood producer (Kim Coates) and his timid intern (Norman Yeung), and Chris (Wentworth Miller), a man with familial connections to Claire that come across forced and entirely of convenience. Together, they discover the reality of Arcadia, while Alice is unknowingly pulled into yet another evil plan, orchestrated by the film's lifeless evildoer Albert Wesker (Shawn Roberts), of the Umbrella Corporation. Like the past "Resident Evil" films, the plot suffers greatly to the importance of the special effects used to give thefightscenes more impact. The director Paul W.S. Anderson makes good use of the James Cameron and Vince Pace 3D Fusion Camera System that was created for "Avatar," giving "Resident Evil: Afterlife" a visual depth that allow the viewers to feel a part of the action onscreen, thus being the only aspect keeping them from giving up on thefilmentirely. The use of 3D attempts to distract the viewers from the complete lack of story progression, where nothing is gained in the film and there is little point behind anything the characters experience. Slow motion is used in nearly every scene, quickly becoming an annoyance by dragging on selfimportant looks shared between characters as they shoot paths through the infected zombies closing in. The film can be broken into segments of fight scenes that fail to connect with one another, quickly killing characters off-screen, while moving along at a hurried pace towards the intended climax. However, with the credits rolling 20 minutes too soon, the end comes without warning and fails to satisfy, leaving the audience without any sort of resolution to the 97 minutes they just endured. When it comes to actual story, there seems to be nothing left to squeeze from the tired "Resident Evil" franchise and yet, the promise of a fifth installment ends the film as a looming threat. There is no doubt that another sequel is in the works, preparing to throw Alice in the middle another battle with an unreachable end to the franchise. Ultimately, the "Afterlife" that the title promises is completely joyless and without refuge - for the characters and the audience. Happy Hour of the Week Thirsty Thursdays at the Pacific Beach Bar & Grill BY TRIXIE GONZALES PRIDE STAFF WRITER Fridays usually indicate the weekend for many, but for college students the official weekend begins Thursday. PB Bar & Grill in Pacific Beach holds Thirsty Thursdays every week and invite college students ages 21 and over from all over the county to partake in their weekly drink deals and festivities. PB Bar & Grill is located about a block away from the beach at 860 Garnet Avenue in Pacific Beach. It consists of three bars, an outside patio, a dance floor and areas where one can dine or play pool. In addition, they provide various types of music including a juke box inside the dining area and two DJ's, one spinning on the patio and the other on the dancefloor.The bar has an enormous amount of space, which make it easy to meander throughout the different areas. The bartenders always provide an outstanding performance for their customers by constantly engaging them in conversation while promoting an energetic environment and never lacking a smile. In contrast, security is very strict in order to permit a safe atmosphere for people to enjoy their time without having any concerns. One great factor about PB Bar & Grill is that there is always a diversity of new people to see and meet, the vast majority being very friendly and outgoing, according to Karla Cordero, a Liberal Arts major at CSUSM and a regular PB Bar & Grill customer. She states, "I absolutely love it there, I also like the fact that I always meet new people and it is very affordable for me as a college student. The drinks and the beach are the two main reasons why I am there almost every Thursday." The music they play differentiates every time from top 40 artists, to classic rock and old school rap. "The music at PB Bar & Grill keeps me intrigued because they play a wide variety every time I go, which I find remarkable since most places I have gone to play the same tunes over and over again," said Karla. In addition to their music, another attracting factor to the bar on Thursdays is that they offer impressive prices on their food and drinks. Specials consists of sushi that starts at $3.95 and, when one buys two or more rolls they get any popular or hand roll free. Not to mention that after 8 p.m. all drinks are half off and shots are $3 off as well. They do have other specials on a daily basis and throughout the week their menu includes 20 types of drafted beers and ciders, along with appetizers, burgers, fries, tacos, ribs, and chicken. PB Bar & Grill has one of the most outgoing and fun atmospheres in San Diego County. For the third consecutive year The San Diego Union Tribute has voted PB Bar & Grill one of the top places to go for Happy Hour. They provide great service, play a PHOTO COURTESY OF PROMOWHOLESALE.COM wide variety of music, have affordable drink specials and it's a great way for students to get out of North county and see a different part of San Diego, So come to PB bar and grill on Thirsty Thursday and you will have a blast!

M OGIL NAME REACTED JAMES R OCHE IVAN GARCIA MAEVE CAMPLISSON H as the era or a universally a ppealing artist passed? BY BILL RHEIN Senior Staff Writer Over the last twenty y ears, the role of the musician has changed in A merica. T his idea came to me c onsidering the death of Michael Jackson and the rerelease of the Beatles albums. These performers revolutionized their i ndustry, f rom the way music sounded, to the way it was made. What was u nique is that they appealed to everyone. I know not everyone liked or likes the Beatles or Michael Jackson, but in t heir heyday, a considerable p ortion of the world followed t hem. It is hard to deny the impact of " Beatle-mania," plus " Thriller" r emains the h ighest selling album of all time. The same goes for other a rt- ists, such as Elvis; however, t here does not seem to be someone in t his position today. T he p assing of the King of Pop h as r eminded me that t here is not a single band with the same u niversal appeal. I b elieve t his age h as p assed. C onsidering t he d iversity of music today, I doubt t here w ill b e an a rtist t hat a ppeals to t he m ajority of p eople. T his i s s omething t o look on with n ostalgia, but also we should look how f ar music h as come. What s tarted as simple expressions of self and culture h as become of an industry that has split into g enres to f it every t aste. The I nternet has made it even easier to f ind new music to suit o ne's t aste. The diversity of music h as changed, which can be seen by b reaking down g enres. For example, what was once j ust rock is now s oft r ock, h eavy r ock, m etal, i ndustrial, p op r ock, blues r ock, c ountry r ock, and so on. With so many o ptions now, each a ppealing t o d ifferent m arkets, everyone can find or m ake music t o suit their t astes. Yet, we cannot forget a t ime when some a rtists took t he world by s torm and revolutionized music. I doubt it can b e done a gain, but I will leave t hat t o t he music makers.

PhotosJbry Name Redacted N ative plant presentation packs auditorium BY BLAINE HMOGIL Pride Staff Writer It was standing room only in A rts 111 on the evening of Sept. 16, 2009 as several hundred p eople t urned out to listen to a p resentation on the u ses of indigenous and endemic plant species. This p resentation was j ust another class session for t hose in P rofessor S mall's VPA 311 c ourse, A rts World C ultures. But many of t hose f illing t he room t his evening were i nterested in broadening t heir u nderstanding of the n ative peoples with whom we share t his land today. Those a ttending sought to c onnect with those who have been the k eepers of t his land f or m illennia prior to t he a rrival of Western peoples. The t itle of the p resentation, " Edible, M edicinal, Material, Ceremonial Contemporary Ethnobotany of Southern C alifornia I ndians," may have led one to expect a very d ry c ollegiate discussion of plant, genus and species followed by d etails of the plants f unctions among Southern C alifornia N ative Indian Tribes. Anyone a ttending with "the expectation to receive such a s cientifically e nlightening e xperience would have come away very d isappointed. For anyone a ttending without p reconceptions, the evening was a delight. The p rofessor delivered the p resentation, and was enthusiastically commented on by c o-presenter Lydia Vassar, a Luiseno basket weaver who teaches basket weaving on the Pechanga r eservation at the Pechanga C Mmmakilawish School. It was a sentimental j ourney back in t ime to re-visit the lost and recently r e-discovered Luiseno a rt of weaving baskets, as well as a few side t rips t o d iscuss some of the other u seful plant species in the area. Vassar brought j oy and excitement to all in a ttendance as she focused less on the s pecific plant applications than she did on the e ssential and h armonious c o-existence between the p lants and the indigenous people. Her mother was in the audience f or the evening and also c ontributed some of h er wisdom t o t he conversation. In her s torytelling it was clear that m odern society was i mpacting the local t ribes, and l ocal p lants, both in a less than positive m anner. But the stories were n othing but positive, as she d escribed how t he knowledge of her own t ribes basket weaving had been lost, and was now being r eborn through the g uidance of elders among other t ribes. She is clearly p assionate about basket weaving, and her enthusiasm to inspire and guide a new generation of basket weavers is u nbounded. Basket weaving locally d epends on the Juncus p lant, a g rass species whose population is being t hreatened by non-native invasive species such a s Pampas g rass. In a ddition, several other f actors enter into t he equation of collecting m aterials to c reate t hese b askets that not only f unctional, but a re also in t heir own right g reat works of a rt. Among t he challenges of collecting enough of the Juncus t o begin the weaving, ( preferably the uncommon brown stems) include the all t oocommon o ccurrence of poison oak w ithin the r eeds of the J uncus p lant; Vassar described methods" she used to p rotect h erself f rom the vicious bite of t he poison oak oil as she h arvested plants for her c raft. A lso t hroughout history, t here have been no b oundaries to c ollecting plant?, and today f ences and b orders impinge on the t radition i tself. A s the local t ribes begin t o r ediscover t heir old ways, p erhaps t hose of u s who have c reated physical and s piritual b arriers can c reate new pathways to bridge these t wo c ultures t ogether in living harmony. Perhaps the best way to d escribe the event was a s an i ntercultural conversation, as r eminiscence to old ways, and an introduction for those who were unaware that t here are ways to e xperience l ife's great j oy without the relentless pur- suit of m onetary and m aterial r ewards. Spending t he e vening l istening and c onnecting was c ertainly a reward in i tself. Photos by Blaine H. Mogil �Faces & Places S tudying a broad at C S U S M Accents THE PRIDE BY JAMES ROCHE Pride Staff Writer My name is James Roche. I'm a student at the University of Central Lancashire, UCLan, and I'm here at Cal State San Marcos on a yearlong exchange program. Anyone heard of the English city of York? Don't worry, you're not the only one. It's in Northern England and is over four hours away from London. So being from the north of E ngla^, the opportunity to come study in Southern California was too good to turn down. For most international students thinking about, studying abroad, California is theprime choice; the sun, sand and sea on your doorstep everyday is a dream come true! I arrived. here a couple of weeks earlier than I was required to, as I wanted to relax and enjoy the place before the classes started. Once those two weeks were up I had to move into the University Village Apartments, which was a bit strange initially for me as everyone at university in England has their own room. I think I've been lucky because I get along with my roommate and the other guys in my apartment. This is a concern for most internationals upon coming jto America I think, as you do hope to get along with someone who you will be living in the same room for the next six months to a year. The people that I have met out here have been nice and welcoming, and I already knew a few people before I came across the pond. This is due to them coming to my university in England on an exchange program. This is also how 1 met my American girlfriend! Having a British accent seems to be a nice thing to have here as it's an easy way to start up a conversation and most people seem to like it. I'm taking Mass Media classes here and have found them quite interesting. It's nice when the professor comes to you for an international view on the topic, for example we recently talked about American Idol and it was nice to mention that Britain had the idea for that show first! The budget crisis was a serious shock to me though as I was not made aware anything like this could happen when I applied to CSUSM. I have had one class cancelled already which was both worrying and annoying at the same time. I was also astounded at the amount of books you have to buy and the cost, although speaking to a few people I think I've been lucky with my course. I think I'll struggle to get used to a few things. For example, why does football have to be soccer here? That hurts me the most! Also, Americans refer to table tennis as ping pong. I know they're the same thing but it's my English pride that takes the hit saying it differently. However, with all the differences, CSUSM seems like a great place to come to and I think I'm going to have a great year! Tuesday SEPTEMBER 29, 2 009 O a nd culture shock BY IVAN GARCIA Pride Staff Writer Who'd have thought after 3 weeks ofconversing with the local Brits, that I wouldn't understand a good majority of local sayings? It's simply shocking walking into the local Essentials Food Market (like Cougar Corner, only British) to pick up a loaf of bread and a Diet Coke, and after I pay I follow up with an immediate thank you only to have the person on the other side of the register reply with "cheers." No, we weren't toasting to my purchase with a large pint of Guinness, this is a local expression for "thank you" and/or "have a nice day." Everywhere I go this is said along with varying other says that I seem to slowly pick up, like the fact that frenchfriesare known as chips, then what are Doritos know as? The point is that a good majority ofwhat we know can drastically change depending on where you are in the world and how you're perceived. I know I got some strange look when I said "fanny pack" in public (yeah, it's actually a word used to describe a certain body part, try to guess!). And with that comes the realization of culture shock—the idea of being in a new and foreign place where things as little as words could mean completely the opposite. But it's a good culture shock, the learning outcomes that come from it are one that will help throughout the rest of the time living in said coun- try and it's definitely something to take back home. Speaking of taking things back home, accents! They're sexy, different, and above all, just plain awesome! Going to class every other day puts you at the forefront of speech in a foreign country, so sure enough, my dream would be to come sounding like Daniel Craig or something. And along with the culture shock, comes the fact that I myself didn't know that I had an accent apparently. According to locals, I'm the one with the American accent, and somehow they can pinpoint that I'mfromCalifornia. It's just simply something that I never thought about, here I was ready to go to the UK and gain an accent for myself. All the while, people already in the UK were prepping to hear accents from varying countries, including theU.S. So, it just goes to show, that even though almost every country contains people, buildings, roads, we're all essentially the same. We are people, united under the banner of Homo sapiens. But we should all strive to learn from the cultures of others to influence and better ourselves. So, I propose a trade, how about the UK brings over a Chipotle franchise here to understand the deliciousness of it (I'm dying for a burrito STAT!). And in return, America will create a method to gain cool British and phrases to better understand our friends across the pond. Deal? L ooking to join a g ym? Y ou a lready h ave!

You've heard of it: the idea that Americans are culturally aittight. This Zip-lock effect extends beyond our collective ignorance concerning world politics and events. It also controls even our pop cultural preferences. Of course, the latter isn't necessarily a societal detriment; any country could say the same about its inhabitants to some degree. The majority of U.S. Americans have heard of The Beatles from England, Bjork from Iceland, and Shakira from Columbia. The problem is, the greater part of international musicians that are established in America are the ones who have catered to American taste, likely because American entertainment monopolizes much of youth culture. It's a natural thing considering the largest and most powerful record labels currently call the States home. Seeing as how artists like Mariah Carey hog even the World Music Awards, the most effective way to hunt for international musicians is to do just that: hunt. I offer the following artists under the disclaimer that 1 am indeed an American as well and can only go as far as the Internet may take me. Onward, I say! Indipop broke into the American entertainment sceiie with the success of the British film Slumdog Millionaire. Indian composer and producer Allah Rakha "A.R." Rahman began scoring Bollywood movies in t he 90s, garnering mass success in his native India before "Jai Ho" came to the States. He's worked with several Hindi and Tamil musicians to turn out hit after hit in his token symphonic style, prevalent in India as well as in Indian communities in Europe. Origa, or Ol'ga Vital'evna Yakovleva, is a Japanese pop singer of Russian origin. She gained popularity throughout the 90s and early 2000s with the rise in mainstream Anime interest, and the majority of her fanbase is still in Japan. The language Origa sings in varies by album; sometimes she will even use more than one language in the same song. Though she is no longer an active artist in Russian, the Japanese still can't get enough. Polish music culture is unusual because it's one of the only countries without pop music ruling the charts. Rather, Poland has a huge death metal scene, with the band Vader at the forefront. As you'd imagine, the band took their name from the Star Wars series, and their style certainly reflects the character's darkness. Throughout Ukraine, Germany, and the THE P RIDE Image courtesy of Jmignited.com Czech Republic, Vader satiates their fans' desire for the best death metal in Eastern Europe. For over 25 years, Egyptian musician Amr Diab released and continues to release the most popular music in the country. He's smashed album sales records throughout the Middle East and is as loved today as in the mid-80s when he first came to prominence. His dance-style music crosses over to places including Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Saudi Arabia, and is considered the favorite of all Arab pop singers. The planet is a big place, and the musical world is even larger. Each of the nearly 200 countries in existence has its unique variants and reasons for why its people enjoy the music they do. Language is an understandable barrier, but the love of music is unanimous. A uthor b rings real w orld e xperience to C S U S M BY TRISH CORRIGAN Pride Staff Writer Knowing a successful author brings reality to the forefront and is no longer a distant hypothetical for aspiring student writers on campus. The Community and World Literary Series featured author Stephen-Paul Martin at CSUSM's Clarke Field House in the Grand Salon on Thursday, Sept. 24. It was a grand evening filled with buzz and excitement. Stephen-Paul Martin is a widely published author with work ranging from poetry, fiction and non-fiction. The National Critics Circle Fiction Award in 1993 nominated Martin for "The Gothic Twilight." His most recent collection is "The Possibility of Music." He graduated from New York University with his doctorate. His upcoming fiction collection "Changing the Subject," will debut in 2010, published by Ellipsis Press. Professor Mark Wallace started the literary series on campus and over the years brought real world experience to the academic scene. His intentions included giving students the opportunity to see and discuss published work with the authors themselves. Student Jennifer Hylander admitted she had attended the event as a required assignment. However, she said, "I would have come even if it wasn't an assignment, because [Martin] is a great writer and I can learn something from him." The reading began with StephenPaul Martin instructing the listeners to clear their minds of intent and preconceived notions. He read a story inspired by illegal whaling practices and by Herman Melville's « Moby Dick. He forewarned us about by his intentions of portraying the way humans abuse animals for their own self-serving. Student Jeannine Clark' had mixed feelings on this aspect of on Martin's writing. She said, "Stephen-Paul Martin obviously is a very compassionate man with a big heart for animals. At times though, I felt like he had an agenda to push and that got in the way of the writing for me." She followed by adding, "I do think the reading series is important for literature and writing students so that we get the chance to see contemporary writers read and discuss their work." ; Even though this event is beneficial to the development of student, it has not escaped the looming shadow of the budget crisis. Last year there were three Literary Series events. This semester there will only be two events not because of lack of demand but because of lack of funding. "It's like they cut the things that help us most. I'm here because I want to be a good writer. Who else can teach me that but a good published writer? What are we paying for?" said student Rachel Busnardo. Salt to taste Pepper to taste Cook macaroni according to package direction in salted water. Drain and let cool. Fill pot with cold water and add eggs. On stovetop, bring water and eggs to boil. Bringing the eggs to boil starting with cold water will keep them f rom breaking. Boil eggs for seven minutes.

Cougar kitchen BBQ & M ac BY TRISH CORRIGAN Pride Staff Writer Shoved in the back of my drawers and stuck in the crevices of my refrigerator are colorful packets of single serving sauces. I get them with tacos, chicken nuggets, french f ries and chow mien. They span great lengths of the. fast food and takeout culinary landscape. I am a hopeless packrat of packets, never throwing anything out because of the slim chance I might need it, whatever it may be. Finally came a day when my husband sat me down calmly and said, "Use it or lose it." Out of fear of jny collection of condiments going to t he trash, I turned my stash into dinner. Condiments are expensive. To buy a whole bottle of soy sauce when all you need is a splash can be overwhelming on the pocket book. In these two recipes I have used a bevy of basics such as mayonnaise, mustard, ketchup, Tabasco, soy sauce, sugar, and even salt and pepper. I would also like to make a special thanks to Chik-Fil-A who has a lovely selection of condiments j ust lying out there in the open waiting for customers to choose. The sauce for my macaroni salad is basic and you can use it for tuna salad, chicken salad, even coleslaw. Also, BBQ sauce is a basic combination of sugar and ketchup, as used in my chicken recipe. So save those packets of condiments and get creative.

According to the official Army autopsy reports in the film, Dilawar was brutally beaten to death after only five days in custody at Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan. His death was reported on widely and it is clear that those who caused his death were heinous in their actions and it is still unclear how high up the chain of command the orders to treat prisoners in this fashion went. It is not too difficult to imagine that this came from the very highest levels of military command.
