OEasrle Eve Rain/Snow High-48°F ' LOW 36°F - LocA Haven University's Student Newspaper - Wednesday, October 26, 2005 Volume 62 Issue 7 Real World stars share 'real' experiences Adam Roberts Guest Writer Cindi Howard/ Eagle Eye Student Emily Nowak poses during a meet and greet with the Real World stars after their appearance in Price Auditorium last Thursday. Former Real World San Diego cast members Randy and Cameran discussed issues and stories about their experiences in the spotlight last Thursday. While using video clips from past Real Worlds seasons, they talked about serious issues such as race, conflict resolution, and eating disorders. They also laughed and joked with audience members about their favorite memories. Randy's favorite memory from the show was Halloween. Cameran's favorite memory was when housemate. Brad, was arrested for public intoxication and called from jail. Randy, who spoke at college campuses in Spain and Germany, made a comparison between the Real World and being a freshman at college. Real World cast members are put in a house with people with different ethnic groups, sexual orientations, and moral values. This Randy stated "is much like living in a dorm for the first time." Randy also pointed out that 'Real Worlders' are suddenly given access to a large amount of alcohol. The Real World houses are designed with no television, radio, or even a dishwasher. The only entertainment the cast members had was what they provided themselves. With nothing to do, fights are sometimes inevitable. Cameran commented on how strange it was too see how she acted on nights she can barely remember. In one clip from their season Cameran cried to her roommate Jacquese after he was called a racial slur at a bar. "We are all people," said Cameran. The issue of race and discrimination is common on the Real World. Cameran was especially shocked by the culture change in the house. She shared with the audience that being from a small town, she had to deal with stereotypes that she had heard all her life, but being on the show allowed her to hear people's stories and connect with them. Besides listening to the cast members the audience was able to ask questions. One audience member even tried to get a date with Cameran while others tried to get the speakers to hang out with them. At the end of the program Cameran and Randy posed for pictures and signed autographs. The Real World's popularity shows no signs of losing steam with a season from Key West. Florida slated to air soon. Randy and Cameran fan's need not fret, the two will be on next month's Inferno II on MTV.

Vilello attends a few SCC meeting every semester as a way to keep communication between Lock Haven and LHU His visit last open. Wednesday was the first of the semester. Vilello compared Lock Haven to a residence hall and the related problems since college students can relate to the situation. "Lock Haven is a lot like a residence hall on larger scale. There are issues, and how you deal with the issues makes the difference," said the mayor. While some residents may see college students as a population of troublemakers, Vilello said that only a "small percent create an image problem." been Having recently co-chair for appointed He calls the officers' idea" and plans on looking furefforts pro-active and importher into that option. tant in preventing accidents The second problem that and injuries.

From this new perspective. Vilello said that he can see that the issues that Lock Haven is dealing with as a result of LHU are not as big as the issues that other universities and communities are tackling. The current concerns, while minor in a larger view, are still quite a problem on a local scale. Vilello called parking problems one of the most difficult issues. City police have been enforcing parking along North Fairview Street more so than before because of "safety issues" according to Vilello. Temporary parking in front of Smith and Woolridge has been the normality, but students have been parking farther down the road and sometimes on both sides of the road, creating a dangerous bottleneck. Most of the offenders park these places for very long in periods of time and are habitual, according to Vilello. evem* HAC has events store leading to Halloween including a comedian and actor's guest lecture _______ See B8 L Cross Country Men win and Women place 2nd at W*M'--^M Elizabethtown Invitational I—I See Bl ___________■_■ Strange fact of the week In Idaho it is illegal for a citizen to give another citizen a box of candy that weighs more than 50 pounds.

Safe Haven and the Wellness Center sponsored a simulator that gave students an idea of what it would be like operating a vehicle after consuming alcoholic beverages as part of National Collegiate Alcohol Awareness Week. Students who participated "drove" a car controlled by a computer that gradually increased the number of "drinks" consumed. The drivers operated a seemingly real automobile, complete with gas and brake pedals, a steering wheel and a speedome- - under the ter. The more drinks that were added, the harder it became to steer and see clearly. BptH Most students began to have trouble at two drinks, and by five the majority had completely lost control oftheir vehicle. Junior Troy Hartle said the simulator was a positive way for students to understand the risk involved in drinking and driving. "You have to experience the simulator to know how effective it is." Troy said. "It's an absolutely wonderful educational experience." The simulator was just part of an entire week dedicated to educating students on the effects of alcohol use. Other events included a candle-light vigil and "Bash the Car," which took place on Russell Lawn Friday afternoon. Senior Emilee Gulas said Safe Haven sponsors National Collegiate Alcohol Awareness Week every year in order to "reach out to the students." m ■ Cindi Howard!

Randy and Cameran both Melissa Trentadue Staff Reporter Sigma Kappa Spent the past week raising money by selling for Alzheimer's lollipops research. The LollypOpS are sold outside of Raub Hall and at tables in Bent ley for one dollar each. The lolly pops come in unique and hard-to-find flavors such as; strawberry cheesecake, cotton candy, strawberry kiwi and pina colada. "it was really nice to see support and faculty as well during our first week of the sale." said President of Sigma Kappa Jennifer C'harney. adding "All the benefit proceeds Alzheimer's research and it really was great to get such a positive reaction from the Lock Haven University community over such a good cause." praised the experience, both for what they learned and the friendships they made. Without hesitation, both of the former cast members said they would do it all over again. They also recommended that the people in the audience attend LHU's casting call. Every Sigma Kappa chapter across the United States is involved with selling loJJypops at the same time for the same cause. Alzheimer's research and education became Sigma Kappa's national philanthropy in 19X4 when they responded to an increasingly critical problem lacing older Americans. "It is nice knowing that all of the Sigma Kappa's are involved in the same fundraiser at the same time. It causes a huge sisterhood bond for all us and makes us more excited to get involved with the cause," Charney said. Approximately one hundred lollypops were sold so far and the fundraiser is going on until Thanksgiving breakrecess. "We hope to see continuing success until our sale is over," Charney said.

Interviewers might want to see skills with handling failure. interview, During the responses need to be specific and thorough. Tell the employers about a particular situation that related to the question. Briefly tell them the situation, what you did explicitly and the positive outcome. Students should expect the interviewer to dissect the answer by asking a more in depth question. For example, "Tell me more about your meeting with your boss," may be asked after a student told an employer about how they solved a problem. It is important to always listen carefully to the questions, ask for clarification if needed and to answer the questions completely. Some common skills that employers are looking for as a result of the behavioral interviewing include decision making, team building, creativity and oral communication. Questions asked during behavioral interviewing may appear to be more terrifying than previous interviewing questions, but the outcome is positive. Chances are the most qualified and experienced candidate will be hired, but Career Services can help prepare students for interviewing. Students march for ban on Confederate flag Ginger Gibson The Daily Reveille (LSU) - BATON ROUGE, La. Students protested on campus against flying the purple-andgold Confederate flag before and during Louisiana State University's win over Auburn University on Saturday. The group walked from the African American Cultural Center to Tiger Stadium, waving flag signs and chanting "ban the flag." Last week the LSU chapter ofthe NAACP called for the flag to be banned because they said it is a symbol ofracism. Observers said about 20 state police officers accompanied marchers from the AACC. Some protesters said surrounding crowds yelled back at them, but some tailgaters along the route said they did not even notice the protesters. State Police Maj. Genny May, who walked withJhe group \ :■ ■ , during the protest, said there were no safety problems or racist comments from tailgaters. May said the police did not know about the protest until about two minutes before it started. Westley Bayas, political science senior and protester, said there were spots along the route where tailgaters began yelling, but that people mostly seemed shocked or confused by the demonstration. Bayas said protesters expected a more passionate response from bystanders because the march started after 2 p.m., when they suspected tailgaters would have had more alcohol to drink. Some tailgaters supported the protest, Bayas said. Ashley Lynn Sergeant, visiting psychology sophomore from Dillard University and the president of Dillard NAACP. participated in the march. She said that some people along the route yelled at the protesters and that she heard pro- David Kador, computer engineering freshman and protester, held a sign that read "Let's Save Unity" in front ofthe stadium. Kador said while he was marching some people began chanting with the group, but there was also some negative feedback. "They oppose us for this, but then they will watch the black players play," Kador said. "We have to do this to stand for what we believe." While standing in front of the stadium, passing Auburn fans in blue and orange received a louder response from the crowd than the protesters. The protest ended shortly after the stadium opened and protesters with tickets went inside. The group sat in the student section near the field next to the tunnel where the football players enter and exit, popularly known as the "sit-down section." When the players came on and off the field, the group held up about six or seven signs with flag messages. The players did not respond to or openly acknowledge the protesters. Donald Lewis, AfricanAmerican studies graduate student, said the goal of the protest was to get Chancellor Sean O'Keefe, Athletic Director Skip Bertman, football coach Les Miles, basketball coach John Brady and other University officials to publicly ban the flag on campus. The group in the stadium had about 20 students whom Lewis said were not part ofany student organization. A group of students plan to march from the Union to O'Keefe's office this morning at 9:30 a.m. in protest of the flag, some protesters said outside the stadium.

Iowa Internet television network is attempting to provide students with an alternative to MTV. Billing itself as "The Next MTV" and "the world's first live Television 24/7 Internet Network," MantaTV.com has risen to fill the void. "It's edgy. It plays the type of music I like. There's more rock and alternative," said John Askew, ManiaTV promoter at Iowa State ManiaTV focuses mainly on music, streaming music videos and request shows, as well as artist interviews. Also airing are five other "channels" consisting of things like sports, short films, userand features, submitted "ViralTV," which features somewhat more audacious content, including "Chick Fight." ManiaTV is completely free to users, Askew said. It is on 24 hours a day. seven days a week, always live. There are currently about sixteen CJ's or "cyber-jockeys" that host programs throughout the day, he said. Askew said the business is able to provide free, subscription-free service by making all revenue through advertisements. "As a college student myself, I'm extremely busy. I just want to take a break sometimes," said Askew. "A lot of people don't have cable. This [ManiaTV] still gives you a chance to see everything." Geoffrey Lloyd, a junior in pre-biological/pre-medical illustration, said he thought the bands featured were marketed towards "hipsters," people more interested in looking cool, rather than listening to the music and that it was too much like what MTV already is. "The CJ's are indistinguishable from their MTV counterparts," he said. "They made frequent references to 'hipsters' like it was a good thing, but there's nothing good about hipsters."

Over fifty campuses have a Campus Maniac, including Iowa State. Askew said he has already registered over 150 students for ManiaTV's free e-mail newslet- ter. "The big reason [for the success] is the portability and accessibility to every age group," Askew said. After using ManiaTV. ISU student Jacey Tevis, sophomore in biology, said the site was nicely designed and was something she might use in the future to find out more about a particular band. Askew said that some ofthe of distinguishing features ManiaTV is it allows viewers to interact live with the CJ's and is customizable, letting users pick what they want to watch. "They implement their viewers. One cool thing is the webcam room, where you can watch everyone," Askew said. "It's a live experience that is different from anything else out there." Though he tried other parts of the Web site and some of the other videos, they didn't always work and a lot of the time, he just had to watch whatever was streaming at that time. Lloyd said. Though she liked it, Tevis said she did not know if it would catch on in mainstream audiences. "I wouldn't pick it over TV, but if I didn't have a TV, it would be a good option," she said. Though the first to gain notoriety, ManiaTV certainly will not be the last attempt at integrating the Internet and traditionally television programming. According to the November issue of Popular Science, The Food Network will soon launch its own Web-only TV show titled "Eat This with Dave Lieberman."

If your religion is wrong and you are raising your child, then hey, you're doing the same type of activity too. Halloween, for the majority of us, is not about worshipping evil. The holiday's about dressing up, celebrating the gruesome and morbid by means of decoration or costume, receiving free candy (hopefully without razor blades or any nutritional value), staying out late with friends, and having one day ofthe year that is unlike any other. Just like a rainy day is a spectacular, awe-inspiring, occurrence in the desert, think ofhow Halloween night appears to a child. A special feeling surges through a child's body when they see mobs of other people dressed in odd costumes walking around when the streets are usually empty. The situation is something different to break up the monotony of everyday life. Of course, it was this way until more groups ruined the fun. Some concerned parents may say that Halloween is made safer by having the holiday during the day because children get nit by vehicles in the dark night. That's what flashlights, common sense, reflective tape, or if the child is small enough, parental supervision are for. This holiday goes with the time like night just Thanksgiving goes with turkey, like Christmas goes with snow, like the 4th of July goes with fireworks, and like Oageebokfngglefrackday goes with complete and utter nonsense. Those holidays wouldn't be as enjoyable without the items listed. Little kids going from house-to-house collecting candy in the daylight hours is an injustice to them. The usual illuminating pumpkins will have no effect, spooky decorations will be laughed at instead of causing fear in little kids to go up and acquire candy, and the surprise of turning the corner and seeing a Power Ranger, a mutated zombie, and a one-eyed pirate getting along despite their differences, will be lost. Ghosts, witches, black cats, skeletons, and vampires have to be out in the night, for no other reason than keeping consistency in the heads of children. Does anyone draw a Halloween picture with a Raisin Bran-logolike sun making poor old Frankenstein put on sun block? Along with being in the nighttime. Halloween has to be held on the actual date of Halloween. The fun is sucked out of the holiday instantly when it's not on the real date. The feeling isn't the same when your birthday is celebrated on a day other than your birthday, and neither is Christmas or any other holiday really. Now some people say that Halloween can't be celebrated on the real day because school will interfere. Well, that leads to another problem; school children have to go to school on Halloween and the day after if during the week. Back in elementary school, I had the day after Halloween off for many years and then it was changed because we were told we had to "grow up." You know, growing up doesn't mean sucking all the fun out of life. Responsibility can still be had with fun activities such as Halloween. should Everyone get Halloween day off. Humans are becoming a simple being by caring about work all their lives. Go to work, get money, pay the bills, die. That seems to be what everyone is content with or has at least accepted. Principals also need to lighten up. Is having your child dress up as a ninja with a fake plastic weapon or smearing fake blood on their face going to automatically convert him or her into a crazed psychopath? No, probably not. Again, in elementary school where students were encouraged to be creative and get some enjoyment out of a break from school, we could dress up. Then high school hit and suddenly nobody was allowed to wear anything. 1 personally don't know how all the schools are set up and how strict their Halloween celebration rules are, but I'm guessing a majority of them don't even allow celebrating Halloween. What do schools come up with as acceptable alternatives? 'Fall They come up with Festivals' decorated with earthy-colored leaves, vegetables, and enough cornhusks and stalks to make Cledus, Billy Bob, and Larry the Cable Guy feel right at sister-dating, moonshine-drinking, home. "Oh yay, is this party for Amish people?" little Billy said while his personality dropped faster than Pee Wee Herman's approval rating. "No Billy," Principal Prudent said, as he wiped the smile off his face in fear of offending a child who thinks smiling is a form of sexual harassment. What other holidays are next on the chopping block? If Halloween isn't an acceptable celebration for an educational facility, then Christmas shouldn't be allowed either. Making those turkey drawings in art class by tracing a hand should be banned this very instant because if school systems are going to be ridiculous, then they might as well be consistently ridiculous. Do we have to convert kids into the zombie-like, Wal-mart workforce so early in life? Do we really need to turn people into silent monks in the hallways, walking in straight lines, wearing the same clothing, not socializing at all, and giving them no breaks from their menial day-to-day school careers? The fun ofHalloween is progressively losing the fight to the evangelicals, the non-offending schools, and the overprotective parents. I remember people older than myself telling me how fun Halloween was for them and the fun times for me were only slightly different, but the Halloween celebration is becoming rather boring, colorless, uncreative, unpleasant, and down right 'stinky' - much like the cliche bags of dog waste left on unexpecting people's porches. A FINE day to be somebody else Garrison Keillor Tribune Media Services People stood out on my front porch the other night talking about politics and inhaling the sweetness of fall, intimations of nobility in the air and also decaying vegetable matter. What we felt was the elation of a warm night in late October in the northern latitudes, when you can stand outdoors in your shirtsleeves after twilight. In these circumstances, even newspaper columnists feel the urge toward poetry: Across the street, the maple Is flaming yellow on the bough. It stands beside an evergreen, All dressed up for Halloween. Now of my three-score years and ten, Sixty-three won't come again. Subtract from seventy sixtythree It scares the daylights out of - And since to look at maple I'd like more time (Lord, if you please), I'll briskly walk in admiraAnd stimulate the circulation. The smell of fall takes me back to fourth grade, the girls in their pinafores and the boys in plaid shirts, our hair wetted down and combed, watching Mrs. Moehlenbrock write the math problems on the board, thinking about What To Be for Halloween. Girls could, if their mothers had the time to sew, dress up as royalty, oras fairies, but for a boy, princehood was not an option in those days, nor was pixilation. You could smudge your face and be a hobo, or put on a red nose and fright wig, or you could be ghoulish and loathsome. Last year 1 succeeded in that, without meaning to. I put on a tuxedo and painted my face blue and handed out candy bars to a couple hundred kids and their parents before a kind neighbor informed me that the blue paint, in dim light, looked rather black, and then I remembered the pained looks on the faces of African-American parents who came to my door. I guess they figured Mr. Keillor, for reasons of his own, had decided to dress up as Al Jolson and might whip out a banjo and serenade them with a few plantation songs. No wonder they were so quiet as I doled out the candy into the children's sacks; they were wondering what this old booger might have put in the Bufterfingers. "To be great is to be misunderstood," said Emerson, which does not mean that misunderstanding confers greatness. It does not mean that at all. Everybody is misunderstood most of the time. Back in my bohemian days. I liked to put on a flowery shirt and fringed vest, as if I were a true individualist, and now I wear a suit and white shirt and tie and try to impersonate a businessman. Either way, strangers take one look at you and with great confidence come to conclusions about you that are dead wrong. This happens to us all every day. And so we should celebrate Halloween. It's as close to a carnival as we Northerners have, and it's a chance to slip out of the stereotypes assigned to us and find truth and beauty in caricature. If you are pegged as a Midwestern mom, Monday is your chance to be Decadent Heiress, Transcendental Heartthrob, Taxi Dancer, Aviatrix, Lady Macbeth or the Goddess Athena, and break free of your family's low expectations a chance to be something passionate. We made our choices in life, based on lousy information, and got stuck being who we are. You: attractive, impetuous, with bedroom eyes and a savage wit. . - Me: rumpled, preoccupied, shambling, dropping things. And do we regret this? No, not really. A person only needs to be truly understood by two or three people. Everyone else is audience. Passion is in your head. Two people can be married for a dog's age and despite all the aches and bruises of matrimony they still look at each other and get excited. Nobody else understands this. Nobody else needs to. So, on the Eve of All Hallows, let us paint our faces and put feathers in our hair and venture off along the curve of the earth and be somebody else. I will go as a Special Prosecutor in a shiny suit, carrying a black briefcase, who after 7 p.m., turns into Raffaello, King ofthe Tango, with pointy shoes, trailing a cloud of lilac cologne. I will be a figure of stark terror and also a font of erotic energy, a scourge of miscreants and a friend of adventurous women. And when the candy is gone, I'll turn into your father and send you home: That's it, kid, the party's over.

A7 October 26, 2005 7 OPINION Soccer mom sightseers and other inconviences in the "new" New Orleans TUESDAY, OCTOBER 18, 2005 Is this the upper or the lower? People are driving like maniacs around town-becausc there are no traffic cops, few stop lights and seemingly little traffic. And, most of the jerks driving are from out of state driving brand new cars that don't even have licenses-so there's no way to report them. One way streets are two way now. apparently. It is driving me nuts. On St. Claude this morning 1 was nearly run off the road by a white pick up going 80 miles an hour. I followed it as best as I oould, across the canal into Arabi, where they were welcomed at an official check point. Later in the morning, an SUV of suburban housewives stopped in front of my housegoing the wrong way-- and asked "Is this upper or lower?" What they meant was is this upper or lower 9th Ward. I pretended I had no idea what they were talking about and then told them the lower was across the canal. "And this is a one way street going the other way," I said. They were obviously looking for some good destruction and my area wasn't good anough. They were followed by a sheriffs car with out of town cops inside. "What's the deal with people driving where ever they want to?" 1 asked. "We'll get them," they said. Good to know they're cracking down on housewives. Doughnuts of all kinds There is no internet service in New Orleans, so I've been Ken Foster, aformer resident dashing in and out of cafes all day to use the cable wireless signal that some of them managed to retain. (Currently I'm sitting outside a closed bicycle shop on Frenchmen, using their signal. Across the street is the building that used to be the Spotted Cat. but is no more.) Last night, after my last stop at Sound Cafe on Charlies. I hopped into my car and discovered that one of the brand new front tires was completely flat. The spare was rusted to the bottom of the car, so I walked down to NOCCA. where the National Guard is stationed. They were great., pulled the car into the compound. (They continually referred to my van as "the rig") and changed the tire for me and searched for clues as to what happened. So now I've got a little doughnut wheel on the front left side. Meanwhile, this morning Cafe du Monde opens its doors for the first time. So I'm going to load up on some beighnets and head to the nearest Firestone branch since the tire is only a week old. WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 19, 2005 Report from Cafe du Monde The place was packed this morning, with cameras and reporters covering the scene from all angles. I met my boss neighbor Anne Gisleson and her husband Brad there, and we had a couple of plates of beighnets and coffee. The price has gone up about 30 cents an order, but all else is unchanged. SUNDAY, OCTOBER 23, A Neville returns...but still no butter I spent most of the past four days standing in line at the only Walgreen9 open on the East bank. 1 was trying to refill my dog's prescription for separation anxiety medication, and first there was a long line, then when I returned and stood in the endless pickup line I discovered it hadn't been tilled. So each day 1 went in the morning then returned in the afternoon, finally I left on Friday...but with just six out of 28 capsules. Then I had to go back into the line and have it corrected. Etc. Today it was finally filled, but filed under "D" for dog, so it took a while for them to find it. Seriously.."D" for dog. But this is typical of the odd inconveniences that we have to put up with in the "new" New Orleans. Another is that the grocery' store is well stocked but without a single stick of butter. Why? No one knows. This morning on Frenchmen Street I heard that a number of legendary establishments are struggling to hang on while the utility companies drag their feet with the gas lines. No one has a straight answer on when service will be reestablished, which means that even the restaurants that would like to open can't cook anything—unless they convert everything to electric. So the master plan continues—a slow death for all New Orleans culture that wasn't washed away in the storm. Or so it seems. I was feeling a little depressed by it all. but then I spotted a sign at Snug Harbor announcing that Charmaine Neville will be performing two free shows on Monday night. of Woolrich and an LHU graduate, moved to New Orleans just days is an accomplished and celebrated writer, whose The New York Times work has been published in Book Review, and the San Francisco Chronicle, others. has a stories and his memoir about dog rescue.

Complaining won't bring the nuggets back Daniella De Luca Editor in Chief What I don't understand is why people complain about the little things. There is more to life than having a lot of work to do or a lack of chicken nuggets in upstairs Bentley. Everyday we find time to complain about how people and things have changed, parking ticket fines, the cost of living, low funds, lack of sleep and lack oftime. People are unmotivated, and it's scary. College is a chance to take advantage of the many opportunities given to us. once in a lifetime. Shouldn't we be asking questions and Finding out more rather than having a sourattitude about all the little things we find wrong with our days? If we spend our whole four, five, six, or seven years here complaining and irritated by every little thing, we are not really living are we? We're trapped, and tend to think that the world revolves around us (and our chicken nuggets), and when things don't go our way, everything is in turmoil. By taking advantage of the meetings and open forums with prominent individuals on campus instead of simply complaining to our friends, then maybe things would change. Students miss the couches in what used to be Jazzman's. Doors to buildings break and aren't fixed right away. The coffee cart in Raub has gone missing, and breakfast is a passing fad. The heat isn't turned on in dormitories, and people are catching colds. Subs no longer count as a meal on meal plans in Quizno's. When you pick up a UPS package, you have to trek to a lesser traveled part of campus where it seems no one has stepped foot before. And. we are cranky, annoyed, irritated by all of this. Why? You know that. Your friends know that. But. do the people in charge know that? Have you tilled out a comment card or given any feedback? Chances are, no. If you're complaining, you should start asking questions. Why are things the way they are on campus? Why are things different than they used to be? Campus leaders and other important people to talk to include but arc not limited to: advisers, your resident assistants and/or directors, SCC executive board. SCC senators. Bentley managers. University President Dr. Keith Miller, professors, department chairs, computing center technicians, and the list continues to grow. Chances are, these individuals are more than willing to talk and listen. What a concept, right? Send them an email or find out their office hours and schedule a meeting to discuss your complaint. If things still aren't going the way you think they should, write to us about it in a letter to the editor. Your letter will be published in 2.200 copies ami chances are someone will read it. and someone might agree. Once things are changed, however, after a complaint has been made, we should not forget our manners. Thank the person who helped you fix the issue. If we reserved enough time everyday to thank the people in our lives for being there, then maybe life wouldn't seem so awful and overwhelming. So. quit your complaining, unless you're going to do it to the right people and let them hear what you have to say. Who's with me in joining the campaign to bring the chicken nuggets back?

World Politics 107will be an online course designed to allow exchange students to explore their new surroundings and interact with each other in a flexible online environment. The course costs just as much as would a normal one. it satisfies the General Education requirement in Government/ Economics, and can be utilized by students traveling from abroad to LHU or from LHU to any other partner university. Nothing like this has ever existed at LHU, but rumblings about creating such a course have been going on for quite some time, according to Dr. Lawrence Farley ofthe Political Science Department. The only problem holding back LHU and its sister universities was the "arrival of the right technology" says Farley. Course assignments are submitted electronically and the schedule for the course is extremely flexible. Assignments will include active exercises learning designed to have students "engaging with the local political cultures" says Farley. Only one textbook is required and it can be purchased as early as this November as opposed to the usual availability in January of next semester. Students leaving later to visit another country, such as Australia, can start early on the class if they so desire. Because the course can only be taken by exchange students. Farley believes that sharing experiences will be easier for the students, as each of them will be more likely to relate to one another. In offering this course. LHU ishelping its partner universities by relieving some of the burden for those schools to provide the incoming students with special, often English speaking classes. Dr. Farley is very excited to endorse this new opportunity for exchange students, now quite literally, all around the world. The class can be modified for those who already took the class earlier at LHU.

Derek Marshall carried the ball 31 times for 147 yards and the Bald Eagles totaled 247 yards rushing for the entire game. Danny Hagerman led the fourth quarter comeback, ending a 62-yard drive with a 24-yard field goal shortening Indiana's lead to 12. Tight end Brian Camberg caught a 27-yard pass from Troy Wile Jr. later in the quarter to come within five points. That \0-point rally, however, was not enough to overcome IUP. "Our team got back in this game because they kept playing hard," said Head Coach John Klacik "The guys didn't get down, kept fighting and never gave up. Because of that effort, we got right back in it." Lock Haven's defense was led by junior linebacker Jon Nalewak with seven tackles, followed by Derek Harsch with six tackles and a forced fumble.

Brandy Rissmiller Sports Reporter Lock Haven lost 2-0 to Kutztown University in an attempt to record their second victory against them this season in women's soccer action yesterday. The teams were tied 0-0 until the 56th minute when Kutztown scored their first goal. Three minutes later Kutztown took full advantage of a penalty kick to earn their second goal. #19 Volleyball tops Edinboro 3-0, extending win streak to 21 matches Billy Buckenmever The No. 19 ranked volleyball team extended their winning steak to 21 matches as they defeated Edinboro University in their only match last week. The Haven defeated the Fighting Scots in straight sets (30-17, 30-24, 30-25). This win improves the teams' record to 25-4 overall while they remain undefeated in Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference West play with a mark of 7-0. The Haven dominated the first set, but had trouble with the 'Boro in the second set. The Haven quickly called a timeout as they led 19-18 and reeled off 11 of 16 points to take the set. The team once again faced strong opposition in the third set, but valiantly battled and took the third set 30-25. Li Yizhi, once again, led the charge with another double-double posting ten kills, 14 digs, and she added five blocks. The setting combination of Allison Furry and Kelly Kostelich remained lethal as they dished out 33 assists between them.

I don't think there is any better statement to represent how the men's soccer team has played so for this season. Entering the season with a No. 17 national ranking, there were high aspirations for this squad. They were coming off a 2004 Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference championship and an appearance in the Division II National Tournament. After starting the season with wins in their first two games, including a win over previously ranked California University (Pa.), it looked as if this year's squad was going to pick up right where last years team left off. Then came October and the men struggled through a four game losing skid in which the team fell to 6-7-2 overall and 4-5-2. When most teams would have folded, the Lock Haven men's soccer team clicked. When it was close to being out of reach they found something inside and got it together, rattling off four straight wins including a 6-2 win over Kutztown University yesterday. This recent run of success put them right back in the playoffrace and yesterday's win added to their statement that they should not be counted out. The Haven currently sits in third place one point ahead of West Chester University and two points ahead of East Stroudsburg University. Saturday's home game versus Shippensburg University marks the regular season finale. Despite losing Lock Haven could sneak into the playoffs; bottom line a win gets them in. Let's get out and support the men's soccer team this Saturday and help ensure that they make it to the playoffs to defend their title. Defend their title or not, this team is a championship caliber team in my book for the heart, determination, passion, and grit they displayed in their play throughout the season. They fought to get where they are and now let's get out and cheer them on Saturday at 1p.m. What is "sport?" This is a question commonly asked by people near and far and it has often been debated. Some might say it is the heat of competition given two or more opponents in order to determine the best team or individual. But if that is the case, why doesn't anyone think of Chinese Checkers or Hot Dog Eating contests as a bona fide sporting event? Many have argued that cheerleading is a sport, and I am going to go put myself out there and say that it is not. Hear me out. According to the dictionary, cheerleading is defined as "to lead organized cheering, as at sporting events," or "to express or promote automatic or servile praise." The key words here are "at sporting events." Nowhere in that definition does it mention cheerleading as a sport in itself. Arguments from the other side claim that competition cheerleading is as much of a sport as football or baseball, but like most reasonable people, i feel that you need to have a set method of scoring, not just subjective scoring at the hands of a panel of judges in order to determine a winner. Some have argued that by that standard, gymnastics and other related activities wouldn't classify either. And they are correct. Sure, training and physical exertion is involved, but you can say that with any physical activity. A judge decides what score you get in an activity; you don't score points against an opponent going head to head. How is that rational? A single person can determine who wins or loses by how pretty they feel a dance routine is? That is insane. You cannot say that dancing in front of an audience is sport. It might take athleticism and talent, but you cannot put it in the same category as real sporting events like football and baseball, two real sports that I already mentioned. I don't think that the organizers of the first Olympics had dancing around on a mat in mind when they organized the games. They had wrestling and things ofthat nature, not prancing around a mat while throwing your hands in the air like you just don't care. It all boils down to scoring. You don't score points, you get graded and that makes no sense. I realize it takes skill and athleticism, but don't kid yourselves. If I can hear a valid argument as to why this should be considered a sport, I'm all for it. I hold nothing against cheerleaders, and respect them for being able to do all kinds of crazy back flips that I will never be capable of doing, but give me something to work with. I'm always open to others' points of view.

Pratt Staff Reporter The State of Georgia has produced a lot of talent over the years; the Allman Brothers, Kenny Rogers and l|% M. just to name a few. but o\ at the past half decade a new generation of musicians has emerged. This is a generation that brought artists like Bubba Sparxxx a 1 Outkast to the forefront ofthe American music scene. The recent rdeasc of "Graffiti The World' Atlantabased quintet Reh;i goes to show that the soutn is once again a force to be reckoned with. Gone are the days of Neil Young and Lynyrd Skynyrd. The new generation introduced us to artists like Arrested Development and one-hit wonder Kris Kross. But those artists set the stage for the groups that are currently making waves in the music scene. Bands such as Bubba Sparxxx, Outkast and now Rehab have blended a sort of southern rock with a hip hop scene that has established itself as one of the most influential in the business. The late 90's spawned a lot of pretenders, and some might have thrown Rehab into that category. Their first album, "Southern Discomfort," garnered mixed reviews and Rehab could have easily faded away into obscurity. But after selling over 140,000 copies, the band began to get some attention and they earned a spot on the Vans Warped Tour alongside groups like Linkin Park and Kotton Mouth Kings. Their success was short lived. After some inter-band turmoil, they broke up and went their separate ways. Jump to 2005. A new lineup came together and produced what may have been the best summer release that you never heard of. The opening track, aptly named "What Do U Want From Me?" pulls you right in and doesn't let go. What do we want? We want a band that won't release a CD that doesn't revolve completely around one hit song while producing 11 others that do nothing but fill up space. Fortunately, this is one of those few albums that does not rely on a single track to sell copies. Throughout the album, many different styles can be heard. From the soft rock feel of title track "Graffiti The World." to the hip hop rhythms in "This 1 Know." the band takes you on a rollercoaster ride through all the styles that have emerged in the South in the past 30 years. For the most part, this CD will pique the interest of anybody that gives it a chance. The group can handle anything from soft, melodic rock to throbbing hip hop and they do it well. The great thing about a band like Rehab is that although few have he d of them, their talent is obviously there. Recently, songs such as "Graffiti The World" and "Tattoo" have.been getting airplay in major markets such as New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta and Philadelphia, and they seem to be on the verge of becoming big time players. The final song on the CD, "Running Out Of Time," is a bit of a misnomer. This band is not running out of time. In fact, they are just getting started, and it appears that pretty soon everybody is going to know their name. www.rehabmusic. collegenewspapernetwork. com Cast of 'Inspector' reflects Behind the scenes technician.
