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

Rapp feels the same

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.

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."

From Sept. 20 to Dec. 10,
you can take your pick of a variety of fun ways to exercise—and
the classes are FREE to CSUSM
students! Faculty must pay a fee
of $60 that allows access to any
of the classes for the semester. Sign up for your choice of
Ashtanga yoga, "Cardio Kick,"
indoor cycling, hip-hop, zumba/
salsa, line dancing, Jiu-Jitsu, or
"AB. Blast" at the Campus Recreation Center (TheClarke 119).
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. Unlike gyms that might
offer martial arts classes, but
charge for equipment, all classes
will provide you with the gear
you need while you're at Clarke
Field House. It's also a way to
save money by stopping your
membership somewhere else.
2) It's on site. 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. If
you're more advanced, these
are going to be classes in which
you'll be challenged to learn new
things," explains Hugo Lecomte,
head of Campus Recreation. "All
the fitness classes are very inclusive and suitable for all levels."

�Fresh, local, affordable food
Exploring CSUSM's Farmers' Market
BY JENNA JAUREGUI
DIGITAL MEDIA MANAGER
In a world of pre-packaged,
frozen edibles, farmers markets
are a fresh reminder of food's
more natural origins. 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.

Farmer's Market special: bruschettà
BY JENNA JAUREGUI
DIGITAL MEDIA MANAGER
Farmers' markets are steadily gaining popularity as more
people venture out from under
the grocery store's fluorescent
lights and into the world of
open-air shopping. 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!
Fresh Bruschettà
1 clove of garlic, minced
1 tbs olive oil
2 large ripe tomatoes, finely
chopped
Vi cup chopped fresh basil
Vi cup crumbled cheese (like
feta,ricotta,or goat cheese)
salt and pepper to taste
crusty bread
Combine garlic, olive oil,
chopped tomatoes, and basil until
well mixed and season with salt
and pepper. Spoon onto slices of
warmed, toasted crusty bread and
serve. Feel free to experiment
and add olives, onion, or other
extras to the tomato mixture! Savor the fresh taste, and appreciate
that your ingredients were grown
with extra love and care.
Ciao, my bruschettà babes!
See you at the next farmers'
market!

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

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

dove left.
"For me, in an overtime game

Late Comeback Comes Up
Short as Men's
Soccer Falls to Westmont
BY KYLE TREMBLEY
Playing in front of a big crowd in
Santa Barbra, Cal State San Marcos men's
soccer came up short against a good
Westmont team, losing 2-1 on the road
last Saturday.
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.
CSUSM will be in action this Wednesday at home in a huge rivalry match with
Point Loma, starting at 5:30 PM*.

The Walkmen - "Lisbon" - Fat P ossum /Bella Union
The Walkmen had their start in 2000 and are now approaching the release of their sixth album, "Lisbon." 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.

"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.

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.

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.
NetNewsWire, described by Dan Frakes from Macworld.com as "A stellar example of a newsreader done
right," is a simple application with a smooth interface
that brings you your favorite blogs and news using Really Simple Syndication.
Really Simple Syndication, more commonly known
as an RSS feed, is a blog format that gives a bare-bones
display of a website, keeping the news and blog posts
while shaving off the ads. NetNewsWire takes these RSS
feeds and combines them into one simple-to-use interface, so whether a user looks at one blog a day, or 50,
they won't miss a single story.
There are several features of NetNewsWire that help
the app stand above the rest in the RSS reader market.
First, and most importantly, the app is free for the Mac
and iPhone. Both are supported by ads, which are shown
in the bottom left corner of the app. NetNewsWire also

able to connect to Twitter accounts for easy sharing of a
user's favorite stories and blog posts with friends. NetNewsWire also has a full-functioning web browser built
into the app. This feature helps minimize the wait time
when opening a link from a news story, or when loading
the source from within the app.
My favorite feature of NetNewsWire is also one of
the most simple and overlooked. Just like Google Gmail,
a user can "star" their favorite stories in NetNewsWire to
save for a later read date. This feature becomes increasingly useful with each new RSS feed a user subscribes
to. Finding a great story is easy, but remembering where
it is hours later can be, and usually is, a complete chore.
Marking a story as a favorite gives the user easy access to it at a later time, without the hassle of scrolling

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,
