We are p aying more, and getting less. If the school is not going t o stick to these goals, maybe it is time to reevaluate them and be honest about the fact that the student, the teacher, and the quality of education are not a priority. The email o ffhandedly mentions that this is supposed to help classes. But t his is only a t emporary solution to a growing problem. When I was a f reshman, I did not sign up f or these cutbacks or expect that my campus would so easily discard my desire to l earn. On the CSUSM homepage, our school claims to b e "Roaring into Our 20s." T his must be some kind of j oke. Sure, i t's a milestone, but t here is not much t o celebrate if a fter twenty years the school is cutting back on student p rogress. Now is the t ime to get involved and make s omething happen f or the better. It is t ime to ask of our elected ASI o fficials t o f ight for the s tudents, like they promised us d uring the elections. Every person can get involved by signing up at www.savecsusm.org, where we can rally together to show that we care. If we let these l imits walk all over us, it is going t o keep happening. Those behind them are going to keep cutting back because they know they can. It is t ime to get our heads out of the sand. We cannot be the change our f uture needs if we cannot get a decent education. you can do, two things, either or both of which will definitely make you a happier person and each of which take very little time. First, keep a gratitude journal. A couple of times each week (put these on your weekly calendar), take two minutes and write down 5 things that you feel grateful for at that moment. They can be anything from thè most trivial (like this weather or that bagel), to your feelings about the people who have loved you, to your deepest feelings about God or nature. Write down 5 things, and as you do, try to actually feel the sense of good fortune and gratitude for each of them. That's it! Simple! Second, if you want to try something really powerful, think of one person that you feel very grateful to for being in your life, now or in the past. Write a one-page letter to that person, thanking the person for what s/he has meant And when you do think about to you. Tell him/her specifically these things, and try to picture that why you feel grateful to him/her person or thing vividly, you might and how lucky or blessed you feel also notice a good feeling visiting for his/her presence in your life you as you realize your good for- and how the person you are owes tune and how your life has always so much to him/her.

If you can't do it face to face, do it on the phone. Guarantee: you will both feel wonderful! So there you go, two simple exercises. Try either one or both. Amazingly, even doing a gratitude journal entry a couple of times a week will, I'm positive, make you a happier person. Counseling Services here at Cal State are available to all students at no charge. You don't have to have a 'mental illness' to see us. Many students come when they are struggling with the common stresses of college life, especially when these are 'getting in the way'. Many students use our services as an opportunity to learn more about themselves and grow as people. Confidential conversations with a professional can be a special opportunity to be completely honest with yourself with someone who won't judge you and who will strive to support your happiness and success. If you would like to make an appointment, call 750-4910.

If this keeps up, students will no longer be able to graduate in four years. BY BILL RHEIN Senior Staff Writer Adults have always told me the youth are the f uture. Yet once again, the campus wronged the students. The f urloughs and tuition hikes were not enough I suppose, and I am l eft to wonder what kind of f uture is being set up for us. On October 6 ,1 got an email i nforming me that I will only b e able to apply for 13-units this spring. So, despite the extra $624 we all had to pay, and the cutbacks made in class time, we have to bear the burden of a f ailing economy by letting our education s uffer. The only thing more distressing than these cutbacks is the lack of outcry I have seen f rom students. Unless I was the only person emailed, I cannot f ind a reason why we as a student body have not done anything to change this. If you are on the fence or not sure of what is going on, now is the t ime to get f ired up. ssggggg gg g g g website there are f ive, very general and expected goals of a university.

Vice President of University Advancement, Neal Hoss, thanked the signers for their contributions and said that the beam "will be on permanent display" in the building once construction is complete. Karen Haynes, University President said, "It is particu- larly noteworthy that even in these d ifficult fiscal times, we were able to convince our system to provide us through the bond money with f unding to move this project forward." Both speakers mentioned the need for more f unding as well as describing the honor roll and naming o pportunities within the building for all sponsors. Vivian Bennett represented the Social and Behavioral Sciences Faculty. She said faculty in her department "empower citizens by teaching them critical thinking about the common good," and a new building for them will benefit the campus and surrounding community. Chris Devers, chairman of the Pauma Band of Luiseno Indians, reminded attendees, "This i s Luiseno land," and he hoped the building would r eflect that in architecture, Photos by Maeve Camplisson respect for the Earth, and providing an environment for Native American students. Mel Vernon, council member of the San Luis Rey Band of Mission Indians joined Devers in a ceremonial smudging of white sage t o promote good energy in the building.

We've all heard of the Mozart effect. Studies show that Mozart's compositions administered in daily doses boosts a child's developing intellect. Beethoven allegedly enhances creativity. And best of all, according to the Francis Payne Bolton School of Nursing in Cleveland, listening to Vivaldi post-op will actually promote healing and patient wellbeing. Current musical stylings like hip-hop and the endless variants of rock do little to advance relaxation or IQs. Besides, the only classical music present in the 21st century seems to be snippets of Debussy's Claire de Lune or an abridged version of J.C. Bach's Cello Suite No. 1 in car commercials (travesty, I know). So, knowing how beneficial classical composition seems to be, why aren't there modern composers and musicians perpetuating this positivity? There are, I promise. The "golden age" of classical music may have come and gone, but there is a man versed in classical repertoire breathing new life into the field. Matt Haimovitz, a 38-yearold cellist born in Israel, made his performance debut at 13 as a soloist with the Israel Philharmonic after intense training in Palo Alto, California by the world-renowned cellist Irene Sharp. At 17, Haimovitz and his family moved back to the States and he performed with the Chicago and New York Philharmonic orchestras. He also signed an exclusive recording contract with Deutsche Grammophon Gesellschaft, a German classical record company, and received several awards for his work with the label. In 1996, upon graduation from Harvard, he terminated his contract with Deutsche Grammophon out of a desire to explore non-standard styles of classical music. His variations were a success in (of all places) rock venues, and he went on to found his own record label, Oxingale. Haimovitz does not record any original works. In his newest approach, he creates variants of established pieces by modern artists like Elliott Carter, Ana Sokolovic, and Steven Stucky, and infuses them with electronic styling. Haimovitz's most recent release, Figment, is the perfect album to help temper your tastes if you aren't ready to dive head first into a symphony. The album's first track, "Figlude," is a pulsating hybrid of synth hits mixed with a cello piece by composer Socalled. Though Haimovitz's real claim to fame is his incredible Image courtesy ofAshmont Records technical skill, his innovative approach toward classical music bridges the musical generation gap between the 19th and 21st centuries. Still can't handle heavy classi- cal music? Check out his version of "Kashmir" by Led Zeppelin off his 2005 release Goulash. It's guaranteed to smash any and all preconceptions about what it means to be "classical." crowd the p an. Make s ure t he mushrooms are not o verlapping in the pan and are in an even single layer.

Faris may never reach the comedic heights of a Lucille Ball, but that doesn't lessen the solid talent she consistently brings to the screen. She has great timing and a real gift for comedy,fromsatire to slapstick. In this film, a group of sorority nerdettes might lose their house due to a lack of pledges. The Playboy mansion, Shelley's home, sends her away through the underhanded work of arivalbunny. As she wanders the streets not knowing what to do or where to go, she ends up finding her real place at the Zeta sorority house. The plot here is fairly derivative, but the writers Karen McCullah Lutz and Kirsten Smith did a very nice job misdirecting the viewer enough to keep the moviefreshand interesting. The supporting cast of nerdettes are exactly what one might expect in this type of film, and their transformationfromthe unseen to the must be seen also travels tried and true storylines, but it is perhaps this familiarity which allows the view«* to connect more easily with the protaganistas. Interjected are just enough truly comic bits, such as when Shelly is helping to makeover the girls and she instructs them with the deepest sincerity that they must use makeup to showcase their eyes for4 the eyes are the nipples ofthe face." Certainly not a film that requires deep reflection, but there is more than enough rentable fimm this fihiitomakertworth a view. "What to See" *** "The Mighty Boosh" is written by and starring Julian Barratt as Howard Moon and Noel Fielding as Vince Noir in a Britcom television program which combines comedy, fantasy and musicatelements. Hmm, how do I communicate the sounds and images that leapfromthe screen while watching this show? That is a tough assignment. Fielding plays a character named Richmond on my favorite Britcom "The IT Crowd" and it is for that reason alone that I took a shot at this show. After having watched the first season of Boosh, I am still watching and still am not quite sure why I am watching or more precisely what it Tuesday, October 13, 2 009 is I am watching. The comedy is not particularly sharp. Acting is over the top and likely this is intentional. The story lines are straight from the dream states of the writers. The sets and costumes are equally cheesy and outlandish. Perhaps it is like taking a journey into the sleeping mind of Lewis Carroll or Edgar Allen Poe only less sophisticated. It is entertaining for sure, and at times more than a bit disturbing. If for no other reason, watch it at least one time, for it is truly like nothing you have ever seen before. You might even enjoy the musical segment, which can be the best part of the show. So for that reason alone I would rate this as a "What to See" somewhere between * and ****, your guess is as good as mine. Layers create visual interest BY KEVIN CHATHAM Pride Staff Writer grey, white) the more versatile the cardigan will be. Try to stay with neutral or earth tones and you will be able to wear your cardigan with nearly anything. The last thing you should consider when buying a cardigan is the material. Try to go with a t hinner f iner fabric like f ine merino wool or cashmere. If the cardigan is too thick and bulky y ou'll not only risk looking like Mr. Rogers, but you'll also limit its versatility. The online Merriam-Webster dictionary d efines a cardigan as a sweater or jacket that opens the f ull length of the center f ront. Essentially a cardigan is a sweater that opens in the f ront. The cardigan has escaped the closet of g randfather's everywhere and has become an important fall staple. It also applies to this week's fashion tip. A cardigan is great because it is universally u seful and accessible to everyone. You can wear a cardigan with anything. Pair it with a normal graphic or band t-shirt for a casual look or a button down oxford and tie for a more sophisticated look. You can't go wrong when layering with a cardigan, so pick one in your favorite color and wear it everywhere. When purchasing a cardigan there are several things to look for. You should purchase a cardigan that f its well, it should f rame your torso without overwhelming your silhouette or being too tight. You should also take note of the color.

Forethought and planning resulted in a relatively orderly beginning to the evening, as those in charge had set up a viewing room for those not fortunate enough to get into the main room. The overflow room offered the presentation via closed circuit television. Dr. Jonathan S. Marion, an on campus professor of Anthropology, presented the event, "Meanings in Motion." Dr. Marion's focus is on Visual Anthropology as it applies to Ballroom dance. He is no mere scientific observer, he is also an enthusiastic participant. One might wonder i f such a deep involvement in the field one studies might cloud scientific judgment, but in the case of Dr. Marion, this involvement leads to a deeper insight and better understanding of the subject at hand rather than conflict. Dr. Marion is easy to spot on campus with his uptempo stride, short ponytail and neatly trimmed doorknocker facial hairstyle. He is very approachable, knowledgeable, and dare I say stylish. On this evening he brought everything he had t o the presentation along with a mild nervous swaying during the presentation.

The currently recognised sections or disciplines in International-Style DanceSport are: The Standard section, The Latin American section, The Ten Dance section, (and) The Rock 4 n' Roll section." The IDSF currently has a presence with National Member Federations in 86 countries. Following the lecture, the audience finally got what they came for as three separate dance couples, and another group with four female dancers demonstrated what the IDSF is all about. Performing four of the standard dances from IDSF competition were dance partners Paul, Cloud and Borbala Bunnett who beautifully and gracefully danced the Waltz, the Tango, the Foxtrot, and the Viennese Waltz. Dazzling beaded costumes, changed between dances added to the majesty of the moment. Not to be outdone, Serena Cuevas of Deseo Dance Company in San Diego showed off some very hot Latin moves with her dance partner Anthony. Husband and wife team David and Jennifer of Majesty in Motion also turned up the heat with some passionate Salsa moves of their own. On this night of great dancing and entertainment there was not one star, but a small constellation as everyone involved lit up the night and left a little stardust in the memories of everyone in the audience.
