The Web Scheduler allows CSUSM students to schedule advising appointments according to their declared major or their major of interest. The Web Scheduler suggests that students with an undeclared major status or students with no specific major of interest visit the Career Center, located in Craven Hall Room 4201. The older version of the Web Scheduler closed after midnight on Thursdays and reopened at 10 AM on Mondays. If no appointments were available then students had to continue logging onto the Web Scheduler daily to check for available appointments from Monday after 10 AM to Thursday before midnight. If students were not able to successfully make an advising appointment then they would have to wait until the following Monday at 10 AM to start the whole process all over again. For the Fall Semester however, the Web Scheduler no longer closes. Students can log onto the Web Scheduler to make an appointment whenever they want. Students can also make an advising appointment in advance of 7-12 days. Advising appointments provide opportunities for students to meet with advisors for assistance in graduating.

A contractor working in the Academic Hall accidentally struck and disabled a hidden electrical feeder for the lights on the third and fourth floor of the building. Fortunately, the contractor was not injured in the accident. Shortly after the accident, the Facilities Services department notified the Communications Office who sent out a mass email to notify students of the situation. Yellow signs were posted on the doors of the ACD building warning students of electrical repairs being performed through out the day on the first,, third, and fourth floors, with the corresponding classroom relocations. The Academic Scheduling department was notified of the accident on Friday morning and made adjustments to classes in affected areas. Two classes, Communications 360 and Kinesiology 202, which are scheduled in classrooms on the fourth andfirstfloorsrespectively, were relocated to Markstein Hall for the day. The repaif work went fairly smoothly and was completed by Facility Services during the day on Friday. Fortunately this prevents the need for further class relocations, and all classes are scheduled to be held in their regular rooms on Monday.

The public-works bonds which are being run along with Bond ID for transportation, housing, and flood control, (titled Bonds IB, 1C, and IE respectively) may make the passage of each individual bond more difficult. The proposed package is considerably larger than previous bond packages, the previous largest state bond proposal being the $15 billion dollar deficit reduction bond in 2004. That bond, which was named at the time Proposition 57, was a one time Economic Recovery Bond to pay off the state's accumulated General Fund deficit. Seen by voters as necessary to avoid a state fiscal crisis, Proposition 57 passed by an overwhelming margin of 63% to 36%. The bond package IB-IE however does not carry the same level of necessity in the minds of some voters as Proposition 57 did. This difference in perception along with the hefty price tag may lead to the bonds' eventual defeat. Last month a poll by the non partisan Public Policy Institute of California stated that 59 percent of California voters considered the $43 billion in debt that would be accumulated by the bond package's passing would be "too much". To help shore up support for the it, Governor Schwarzenegger along with the four top legislative leaders—including Democrats state Senate President Pro Tempore Don Perata and Speaker Fabian Nunez—are scheduled for several news conferences on October 3 and 4 to promote the bond package.

Illustration by David Gatley/ The Pride BY JOSH SANDOVAL Pride Sports Writer I don't view sports as a f an/ T don't get too high or too low when, my team wins or loses, which is why I can work in the sports industry and still maintain my sanity. Last time I lived and died with my team I was in little league. At least that was the case until September 18, when the Padres and Dodgers played one of the most remarkable games I have ever seen. On that day the Padres gave up back to back to back to back jacks in the ninth inning and a game winning homer in the tenth inning to lose to the Dodgers 11-10. Being a Padres fan, you would think I would hang around more Padres fans than Dodgers fans, but that is not the case. Some of my closest friends roll with the blue crew, so as this division chase winds down between the two teams, friendships are being tested. The following are the conversations I had with several people on the evening of September 18 through the morning of September 19. At 9:54PM the Padres todk a lead of 6-4 in the eighth inning so I text messaged my friend Paul, a dodgers fan, "Oh yaaaaa". He simply responds with a couple of expletives. At 10:12PM the Dodgers grabbed one of those runs back and Paul replies to me, "I don't think I can handle much more of this game/' 10:25PM rolls around and the Padres score their first of three runs in the ninth inning. Paul responds with, "Okay... that's it...we aint getting 2 off Trevor... 1 and a halfback." I respond with quite possibly the most clairvoyant prediction of my life, "I dunno man. This game is sketchy. 3 runs I am still not confident with." 10:30PM comes and the Padres finish the inning with a 9-5 lead and Paul says, "How about now?!" Making that transition from journalist to fan I say, "Haha. I am satisfied now." He responds with a "Good! We just had to keep giving you runs until you were." The clock reaches 10:34PM and I am feeling stoked about being a game and a half ahead. Then Jeff Kent homers and Paul responds sarcastically with, "Yay...3 more," 10:35PM comes and J.D. Drew jacks one so Paul responds with an "Oh s**t." Before I know it I am being bombarded with phone calls. Paul callsfirstand myfirstwords were, "Told you I was uneasy." Those of you who live in Temecula, where Paul was viewing the game, know that area gets the .Dodgers telecast, where as San Diegans get the Padres on channel 4 San Diego. What most don't know is that the Dodgers telecast is on 6 second delay compared to the Padres telecast. 10:38PM and Trevor Hoffman is finally called into the game and the first pitch is sent over the fence. As this happens I am seeing it before Paul does and I simply respond with a few expletives of my own this time. Frantically he is confused for those first 6 seconds until he sees my hopes go over the fence. One pitch later I let out some more expletives and Paul responds with a, "you're kidding me, right?" The Padres got out of the inning and I got a call from my Uncle Rene, a Padres fan who lives in Los Angeles. He is watching the game at a sports bar with a bunch of Dodgers fans and among others, Eric Davis, a former Dodger. I make him look like a genius with the whole 6 second delay as he wins several bar bets on what's going to happen next in the game. That would be the highlight of the night for either of us. The game goes into the tenth inning and the Padres grab a 109 lead, so once again I am feeling confident. I finally settle down and decide to join my grandfather for the bottom of the tenth inning. As I sit down, Nomar Garciaparra jacks a 2 run homer over the left field fence to win the game. Then the phone calls start ringing in again, but that isn't the half of it. As Ifinallyget to sleep that night, I figure I won't have to relive that nightmare. That is until I get to my second class on September 19. My friend Karin, a Dodgers fan, gives me a look as I sit down, and I know exactly what she's thinking so I simply say, "Don't say a word." To this day I am still being mocked for that game. So, if you're a Dodgers fan, just don't say a word until the playoffs. As you can see I am still not over it.

A xo^ter with plenty of experience and a few strong he^cditfers should make the 2006-2007 season ian exciting one for the men's gplf team. Last year, the squad placed well in many tournaments, including second place finishes at the Bill Cullum Invite^ Pala Mesa Invitational, and Cal State San Marcos Invitational. This success came despite not having a single senior on the roster. Now, eight golfers return: from last year's team, each with another year of experience under their belts. Scott' Conway and Matt Determari should lead the team. Conway, who was named to the All-Region Team following last season, posted the fourth best overall score in the entire field at the Region II National Championship?. He has also been putting up great scores in off-season August 21 2006. It was ai^ overwhelming end to last season — the squ&d not only won the NAIA Region II Championship, but went on to place fourth at Nationals; the team's highest finish in the seven years ¡since its inception. With the bar set high, the coming year will be more intense than ever* Fall and spring will prove to be a busy time for the Lady Cougars, as the tournament schedule is more full than usual. Five tentative tournaments are scheduled for the fall, and the sprmgrseason is highlighted by the annual Cougar Invitational. During this event, the top NAIA schools travel to San Marcos to compete. Though the competition will befierpethroughout the fall and spring seasons,ft'willserve to prepare the team to be in National Championship contention once again. Within the team itself, competition will be ratcheted up as well. The combination of four talented newcomers with the fact that last year's team featured just one senior means this squad will be full of competition, experience, and excitement. With the great finish to last season, the ladies on this team know what they iyre capable of achieving and 'anticipate stretching their skills and abilities to tournament^. Deternian, a junior, has also: posted great scores in tournaments following the season. These tournaments help the golfers prepare for the fall season, and both Conway and Determan appear poised to have great years for CSUSM. To complement that experience, four new golfers are in school and will compete • for spots oh tournament rosters. Talented freshmen < Ryan Brotman, Kyle Kelch, and Arek Legarra will be on the -competition roster beginning this fall, and junior Markus Wended a transfer student from Sweden, will bring excitement to the squad. ' Betweep the talent that the team brings back froiri last year and the incoming players,, San Marcos has a great season to look forward to. Men's Soccer back on winning track; defeating Biola 1-0 September 22 2006. Coming off i ts first loss since its opening match, the Cal State San Marcos men's isoccer teanf(8-2) quickly righted the ship on Friday, defeating a previously unbeaten Biola squad (41) by a score of 1-0 in what was a tremendous soccer game. Scormg"oppSftunities were few and far between in the tightly contested match. Luckily for CS&S&I, Curtis Marcikic got the Cougars on the board early. Just under 6 minutes into the match, Chris Wyatt controlled a ball in Biola territory. From a sharp angle, he struck a cross to the opposite side of the net, finding Marcikic all alone at the far post. Though the cross handcuffed him, Marcikic managed to redirect the ball into the net with his hip, giving CSUSM an unlikely 1-0 lead That would be all the Cougars' defense wouldneed. After Marcikic's goal, CSUSM managed only one more shot on goal for the duration of the match, but was able to fend off all of Biola's attacks. Cougar keeper Trent Painter was his usual self, barking out instructions to his defenders, making good decisions, and stopping both shots on goal he faced. In the waning minutes of the match, Biola mounted a ferocious charge, nearly equalizing the game multiple times with some hard shots and free kicks that just missed. But despite all this, CSUSM never lost its composure, weathering the storm until the final whistle blew. For the Cougars, Friday's win should be a major confidence builder. The squad was coming off a tough loss, playing on t he^acf and involved in one of its first night games in cold and windy conditions, yet still managed to best a very good Biola* team that entered the game 4-0. Following the game, assistant coach Bobby Renneisen had nothing but praise for both teams; "This was the best team we've faced all year" says Renneisen. "It was just a great college soccer game. It could have gone either way." Renneisen added that Biola has 4 or 5 players with "special" talent. All of this makes the Cougars' performance on Friday even more impressive, and bodes very well for the team's outlook for the rest of the season. After a well-deserved week off, the Cougar men will be in action again when they host a very tough La Sierra squad on Sunday, October 1st. Kickoff is at 3:00 PM, and all CSUSM supporters are welcome to head down to Mangrum Field to cheer on your Cougars! Another close loss for Women's Soccer September 19 2006. Though the Cougar women (1-6) played a tough, close game, the team once again failed to notch a victory, losing 1-0 to the visiting Vanguard University Lions (5-0-1) on Tuesday. Both squads had scoring chances, and CSUSM never allowed Vanguard to establish total control of play. Still, Vanguard held the upper hand for most of the match, out-shooting the Cougars 12-6 with a 9-3 advantage in shots-on-goal. Vanguard tallied the only score of the match in the 20th minute. The Lions' Heather Hutton made a run through CSUSM's defense, finding some space deep in the Cougars' territory. She spotted teammate Rachel Housepian across the box, sliding her a pass that neither the Cougar keeper or defense could get to. Housepian struck the ball into the back of the net, giving the Lions a lead they would never relinquish. Most of the Cougars' opportunities came early on, with forward Clarissa Hidalgo leading the charge. Hidalgo recorded all three of CSUSM's shots on goal for the day, but opposing keeper Marissa Swift let none past. Tessa Smith and Kelly Wherry created chances from the midfield, and defender Lucia Asbury kept the Vanguard offense in check for most of the match. While the Lady Cougars have been playing better as of late, they're still searching for a way to earn a second victory in their inaugural season. They'll try again on October 1st in a game against La Sierra University. The match will kickoff at 1:00 PM on Mangrum Track & Soccer Field, so come on down to cheer on your Cougars! another level.. This year, the team Will feature six active returning players. The squad will be led by senior Jenneil French, and she should shine in her last year as a Cougar. French's drive and determination will help her develop into a player capable of competing at the professional level. Right behind French is junior Çarly Ludwig. Ludwig led the team at the National Championships, finishing in the top 20, which Coach Segura says is just a preview of what this young lady can do. Ludwig, along with French, should lead the Cougars to achieving their goals for the upcoming season. Along with those experienced golfers, new additions to the team include freshmen Irene Atkins (Laguna Niguel, CA), Marissa Reino (Huntington Beach, CA), Adriana Borman (West Covina, CA), and Katiiryn Hansen (Moorpark, CA). They will compete for spots on tournament rosters, and help push their teammates to stay on top of their games. Though last season was a great year for the lady cougars, it is believed that this year's roster is even strppger, and thatthe % team can once again put itself in National Championship contention. �Al &X Ej i ( 1 Tuesday, September 26, 2006 _ ____ THE PRIDE Beck's Oktoberfest BY DAVID BAUER Pride Staff Writer Bavaria in 1810 to commemorate the marriage of King Ludwig I and Princess Therese of Saxe-Hildburghausen.

MMA: Gracie Jui Jitsu BY FRANCISCO MACIAS Pride Sports Writer Enter 3 Freshman. Exit an Officer. For more info cali Major Rogers, 619-594-1236, en^t crog8rs@maiLsdsu.edu or visit http://armyrotc.sdsu.edu ; S an M arcos Market Place 595 Grand Avenue San Marcos, C A 9 2069 DAPHNE'S Fresh, Greek & Delicious^ ,. A young Brazilian man once brought an idea to the American media: a dream of making his family's unique style of martial arts the number one style to beat. Unless your last name was Gracie, nobody at that time had ever heard of Brazilian Jui Jitsu, which would later be known as Gracie Jui Jitsu. This was a style .of martial arts where being on your back meant you were in control. The Gracie family felt they could revolutionize the martial arts world. Thfc Gracie's put out a challenge to anyone who would listen, especially those of the Martial Arts world. November 12, 1993, Rorion Gracie introduced the world to the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) It was a venue where the Gracie family could showcase their own style of Martial Arts; a no holds barred, 'vale tudo' (anything goes), no rules style of fighting. Unlike the traditional ring boxers and wrestlers use, the UFC uses an Octagon, an eight sided ring linked together by a fence and poles. The main objectives were simple, make your opponent submit or "tap out", knock him out or get knocked out. Two men would enter and only one would leave and go on to the next round. At that time, fighters^ were not well rounded. They only knew one or maybe two styles of martial arts. The first three shows of the UFC fights were dominated by one Gracie. He was Photo courtesy of ufc.com the chosen one, the one who would represent the Gracie family; Royce Gracie. Everyone and anyone who thought they could fight or thought that their style of martial arts was the best were proven wrong that night Royce stepped into the Octagon. For the first 4 years he was the "UFC". Nobody was able to beat "Gracie Jui Jitsu" let alone handle the submissions. After the phenomenon of Gracie Jui-Jitsu took over, everyone jumped on the Jui- Jitsu band wagon. The UFC of today is different then in the Gracie days.

Parked in the VIP parking section, at 1 p.m. there were not very many cars or people. The wind was knocking people and tents over, but didn't stop the heat. Unfortunately by 3 p.m. there were already people who were not going to see the concert because the melting heat had already gotten the best of them. A word of advice: to fend off dehydration, always bring a bunch of water to hot concerts. To my surprise, the parking lotfilledup within the hour and even more so as the show went on. After enjoying the pre-concert tailgate with other fans and blasting music in the parking lot, we made our way to the gates of the Hyundai Pavilion. Atreyu was the first on stage. We were only able to catch the closing act of their show since the lines to get into the concert were filled with intoxicated people who just slowed the rest of us down. Lines for food, shirts and other merch were extremely long; but none matched up to line of the ATM machine. At every break between bands the machine would have over fifty people waiting. After Atreyu, Buckcherry took the stage. Their lead singer, with his head full of firecolored hair, conversed with the crowd as he sang, though at times he seemed to talk a little too much during his songs. Since it was still in early in the afternoon, there were no lights for his set, just videos of him singing along on the huge screens placed above and to the sides of the stage. Up next was Rise Against. They really got the crowd involved, egging them on and telling stories, graciously thanking California for supporting the Chicago-based band. Their music was clear and executed well. The band moved about the stage in a nonchaotic manner and seemed to be relaxed. 30 Seconds to Mars marched onto the stage with red and white flags, numerous fans, and covered faces. The show they put on was not very complex and focused almost completely on the lead singer, Jared Leto. Leto talked a lot about how he was once like us, the crowd, and would sneak up to the front. Instead of just playing his music, Leto encouraged people to get as close as they could and just not get caught. During t h e _ first song, you couldn't even hear him sing. Then Leto that hung from the light racks just to tell the audience what a great view it was; they only yelled for him to jump off He didn't. Papa Roach stole thè stage. Jumping with enthusiasm, literally, he got the crowd to get out of their seats, sing along and rock óut. They sang songs from their newly-released album that came out last week and went through different songs only to end with three classic songs from their first album. They had a great attitude and understood how to make the crowd happy. Avenged Sevenfold was the next band up and had a little trouble. The singer blew out his vocal chords while making their new album that should be released soon, so while he was singing at the concert it was hard to hear him. They played the music louder than he could sing so the difference in his damaged voice could not be heard. Even so, it was still a good show. However, the almostnaked dancing girls around them were more repulsive than attractive. They looked more like they were having spasms than dancing, and it really took away from the show. After a long pause, Muse stole the stage and blew away the competition. People around me gasped, as they had never, heard of Muse before and were in awe of their talents. Lights blazed and the band played like no other. There was no useless talking like other bands had done, they just played one song into another. Their musical style is very unique and amazing in concert. The singer not only sings but also plays the guitar and the piano many times in one song. The band only has three members. They were amazing and put on a show that had people in the crowd, including my husband who had never heard them before, saying they will go see this band again. Alice In Chains and Guns 'N Roses put on a very good show. I was amazed at how much the new singer for Alice In Chains sounded like the old one. As for Guns N Roses, although it was just as good, I wish I would have been able to see the original band. It just wasn't the same as it would have been to hear the GNR we all remember. But a good rock show. it was all in all 1 band really contribEach all, and it was apparuted their people who worked ent that concert got involved at the looked out for the and really who came to see the p eople like those who got dehymusic, early on. drated S APA i r?

Tents created a fair-like atmosphere, and furry fair-goers, accompanied by their devoted human companions, began to arrive at Bunnyfest 2006, sponsored by the San Diego House Rabbit Society.

Quite popular was the demonstration on clicker training for rabbits by Andrea Bratt Frick from the organization B.U.N.S^, located at the Santa Barbara County Animal Shelter. She enthusiastically explained training rab- bits as an enriching experience for both bunny and human. Besides improving the bunny-human bond and providing an engaging form of exercise, clicker training also can improve a bunny's behavior, often turning vorpal rabbits into affectionate friends. Also available was "aska-vet" and a photographer specializing in bunny portraits. The tent to visit during Bunnyfest, however- seemed to be the infortnation booth operated by The House Rabbit Society.

So proclaimed Ernest Hemingway, icon of American literature, war hero, expatriate, and adventurer - a man who definitely knew his way around a bottle - of two of his favorite drinks in two of his favorite bars in one of his favorite cities, Havana, Cuba. Lucky for us, the mojito has found its way out of Cuba and into our hearts as the new "it" drink. With its magical mixture of rum, lime, mint, and sugar, the mojito (which means "little spell") has entranced the American cocktail-drinking public with its simple, refreshing flavor. Originally made with aguardiente, the mojito is said to have been invented by the notorious Francis Drake's partner in pirate crime Richard Drake.

Sound like fun? You bet it is! The thrilling cardiac-arrest inducing roller coaster ride that is "Crank" comes highly recommended by this reviewer. Not having been to a movie in a few months and having heard my father rant and rave about thisfilm,as well as a plethora of my guy friends, I was fairly skeptical upon entering the miovie theater to see afilmthat critics have pigeon-holed as a "guy flick." "Is this really going to be worth the $7.50 for the ticket and the $4.25 for the Mr. Pibb I just shelled out?" I thought as I walked through the vacant theater. Having missed the credits entirely, my friend and I entered the stadium just as Jason Statham (from "The Transporter") woke up from his "Beijing Cocktail." What ensued next was 85 minutes full of mind-blowing (literally in some parts) action—we're talking all-bets-are-off-don't-trythis-even-if-you-do-only-have-onehour-to-live gnarly stuff—not to mention plenty of blood and gore and a fair share of profanity and scantily clad women. Chev Chelios (Statham), a professional hit man who is poisoned by a sleazy rival gangster, Verona (Jose Pablo Cantillo), opens up the movie with the discovery that he's been injected with a lethal Chinese toxin and only has one hour left to live. Poison blocking the adrenal receptors in his body, the only way Chelios will hope to stay alive in the movie is to constantly keep adrenaline pulsing through his veins. This being the case, he resorts to insane methods of keeping his adrenaline pumping, and I can't imagine anyone attempting the outrageous stunts that Chelios pulls off in "Crank." Ever. Period. I won't ruin the plot or any of the pants-wetting action scenes for you if you do choose to see it, but I will say "Crank" delivers your money's worth and more. Next time you find yourself reaching for a can of Redbull or Monster, put it down and head to your local theater to see "Crank" It'll cause more adrenaline than you can handle to pulse throughout your body. "Crank" will have you up for days. Image courtesy of Lionsgate Films � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
