Different were organizations able to complete projects that would have taken them weeks, but thanks to our volunteers only took them a day to complete. One thing that was really positive about Make a Difference Day was that it gave a good reputation for Lock Haven University students. Our community needs to see that students from the university are always willing to help them. Because of the efforts, student's organizations around the community will know that Lock Haven University is a large participator in volunteer work," Margaret sums up Rougeux Make a Difference Day.

LHU to host a Recreation Management and Sport Administration Conference Mary White LHU Press Release mwhite4fclhup.edu The Lock Haven University Recreation and Management Sport Administration majors have teamed up this year and have organized a professional conference on Monday November 15, 2010.

The students Members. I David Fahey keeps his Facebook profile as private as possible. His profile picture isn't of him, and he said he has "blocked everything." The 22-year-old U. Iowa senior is preparing to apply to medical school, and the potential downside to social networking is something he aims to avoid. "I changed [my Facebook] because I don't want employers looking at mine right now," Fahey said, adding even the tiniest details can be misconstrued. efforts Fahey's relate to social media's role in the workforce, a presence that has expanded from recreation to a hiring tool for some employers. National experts and local career advisers echoed Fahey's concerns, saying the importance of social media outside of personal lives has especially increased, in the job hunt. A new company, Social Intelligence, is designed specifically to scan job applicants' social media for potential employers. Max Drucker, the CEO and president of Social Intelligence, said a client company provides Social Intelligence with what it considers "objectionable material," such as evidence of violence or racist attitudes. Job search expert Rick Gillis said there was "no question" that employers checking the Internet and social media while considering job applicants. "Google is your first resume," Gillis said. He said applicants lose positions all the time because of what can turn up in a social-media search, and applicants won't know why they lost the potential position. It's better to be cautious, he said. "If it could potentially embarrass you, it probably will," Gillis said. Companies are also monitoring already hired employees' behavior. Social Intelligence offers this service, including checking to see if employees are criticizing managers on the web, posing in questionable photos, or spending too much time on personal sites at work, according to its website. On Monday, the New York Times reported the National Labor Relations Board accused American Medical of Response Connecticut of illegally firing an employee after the woman criti- cized her supervisor on Facebook. social However, networking can provide a positive view for potential employers if an applicant's profile includes such topics as charitable activities or job experience, Gillis noted. reviewing When applicants, Drucker Intelligence only looks at the specified criteria. Drucker said the company represented for all companies industries, and there has been a tremendous demand. "Companies in the future will be willing to differentiate candidates by what they been doing have online," he said. But Angi McKie, director of marketing and public relations at the Pomerantz Career Center, said employers told them they're not checking profiles to scan applicants. After speaking to three of the center's advisers, McKie said no students indicated they lost opportunities because of an online presence. UI senior Joshua Nelson said he felt checking profiles was for good way a employers to get an accurate picture of potential employees, and applicants should the right project image online. "You don't want to take any risks," he said. LHU students fight hunger with "sleep out" Mary White LHU Press Release During the month of Lock October, Haven University student clubs and organizations competed to best address the problem of hunger. The friendly competition is called Hunger Bowl, and culminates in the awarding of a pottery bowl to the group with the winning project. The winner was the Health Sciences Club, whose members collected approximately 50 bags of nonperishable food on campus and in the community as well as at a pool shoot tournament. The Health Sciences Club was presented with the Hunger Bowl trophy, which is an original of piece pottery designed by Professor Vance McCoy. The final Hunger Bowl event was the annual Sleepout for Hunger service project in Triangle Park, sponsored by Lock haven University's MountainServe Center for Global Citizenship. Approximately 75 students participated in the Sleepout.

Needless to say, it was not a very friendly article. The government was in turmoil and absolutely nothing was being done about it. Our elected and appointed leaders did not seem to care about student concerns. I was angry and so were hundreds of other students. Our anger was more than justified. The corner students backed our student gov-government into last year is still an enormous accomplishment in my eyes and something I will always be proud to say I was a part of. But that was 2009. It is now 2010. What a difference a year has made. Our student government this year is the first in my time at Lock Haven that actually cares about students. There is no "what's in it for me?" around here anymore. The only concern is not about money or popularity anymore. It is about doing what is right and not what is easy. On the executive committee we want one thing. That is to bring back the days when the SCC was talked about positively and not as a means for greedy students to earn a buck or a resume builder. We are accomplishing that now. We are beginning to set up the foundation for our student government that will allow it to be a tool of the students and not as a means to an end for individuals. We are doing this through hard work, improved listening skills, and community service. I was once looking from the outside in and saw none of this. The rest of the executive board and senate were also. Now, many of us outsiders are on the inside fixing it. So then why am I writing this? Well, I am not writing this because I am worried no one is seeing what we are doing. That will come in time. I am writing this article because time is something we may be running out of in the SCC. ■ ■ ENGINE, TRANSMISSION WORK CEDl/ICC WE SELL BRAND NAMES mmm m\\\ FULL SERVICE FACILITY ftlCT CHRISTMAS 1 mfWmrmMmV ■ IWin%» .

Our very existence is under threat. Again, without quick policy and constitutional changes, our time to give power back to you will run out. The alternative presented to us, and that will be forced on both our student government and students, is by far not in the best interest of anyone. to Right now, be that ensure we will able to continue to be here for students, we need to redraft our entire constitution. As it is now, this process has been purposely set up to drag on and on. Time will be lost; too much time. To make sure we have the time to make long, and overdue frankly, changes, an amendment will be voted on tonight that may very well set the tone for the shape and structure of student life and govern-ment for years to come. For a redraft to occur now, it requires one-fourth of the student body to sign a petition in support of the redraft. This, in light of our urgent need for reform, will be temporarily left out of the constitution. Without that clause we have the time needed to set straight what is wrong in our student government. With it remaining, we lose valuable time which may well determine, again, the SCC's existence here in the coming semesters. If reform is not accomplished quickly, the excellent Senate and executive board we currently have will forever lose our ability to do what is right for you. Likewise, we all also stand to lose a lot of the power and responsibility the student gov-government is going to give back to students should we run out of time. this redraft If amendment passes our senate, we will move, with much pace and urgency, to pass those policies bringing forth s and nvniknukb mm VISA lOR P Thurrh Q* LOOK I nrit Max/on ndVcll onurcn Ol., Phone (570) 893-6898 Toll Free: 877-ANASTOS wvvw.anastosbrothers.com I N E W S better at and and wer to the Senate. the Upon redrafting of the consti-tution, the students will be given power and responsibility that has been lost for a long time. Without amending the redraft clause however, this power to change our government will unfortunately be lost. That is something that I personally, as well as others, do not want to accept. Too many people have invested too much time in fighting to bring power back to students to see it fail now because the SCC ran out of time. Right when the SCC is on a great path and doing what is right is not the time to vote down or op-pose an amendment that will allow us to move forward and continue to do what is student control, Imagine what students will be able to accomplish once they have responsibilities and control that has long been lost. Imagine what future students will do when they have a student that government works for them and not against. Imagine. That is what is at stake here tonight. As a long time outsider who looked in and didn't like what I saw, this is the exact opportunity for change I was looking for. If you come to tonight's SCC meeting at 6:30 in the PUB you will see what I mean. Now is not the time to falter. Now is the time for strength and knowledge in the fact that.our student government finally working for students. The Senate and executive committee are finally united in this goal. Come to tonight's meeting, learn what is going on for yourself, and join those in the Senate and executive board who are doing every-thing they can to help you.

Students check out Galaxy From, Galaxy, A1 most advanced telebut outside galaxies are easy to view because we can see them at an angle. The Sky was clear enough allowing Wheeler to bring a high powered 12" SchmidtCassegrain telescope, which he set up in LHU's baseball field. and despite the cold temperatures, people came out to gaze at the stars. Faculty and students received a demonstration of celestial objects they couldn't see with their naked eye such as double stars, galaxies, star clusters, Jupiter with its moons, and nebscopes, ula (the outer shell of a dying star.) Wheeler was once again open to answering anyone's question, for example when Clayton Snyder asked. "How can you tell if one star is younger than the other?" Wheeler responded, "Different stars are younger by nature. The blue stars are the youngest because they burn the hottest and will die first." Astrological Fridays once a month, with the next observatory scheduled on December 3 and will resume February 4 after winter break. The schedule can be viewed on LHU's website. Cornell has a long history of producing successful entrepreneurs — the creators ofhotel.com, Microsoft Outlook Express, Palm Pilot and priceline.com all hail from the Big Red. Cornellians continue to develop new businesses — an effort that may have become more popular since the recession began. to According Executive Director of the at Entrepreneurship Cornell program Prof. John P. Jaquette, the recession brought with it cheap labor and a serious need for services to help keep companies afloat. "If you can scrape by with enough money to start something, [the recessionj presents a good opportunity," said Keith Cowing, who founded Seamless Receipts, a company that offers a platform for retailers to send digital receipts to customer. "I started this thing with 39 bucks to register the website." The idea for Planning a trip? Visit Geisinger's travel medicine clinic.

To schedule an appointment before your next trip,call 1.800.275.6401,orfor more information visit www.geisinger.org. Seamless Receipts was grounded by the need for physical stores to better compete with the online marketplace, Cowing said. Seamless Receipts now offers a way for these stores to bridge the gap into the cyber world. Retailers can more easily reach out to customers by placing targeted promotions at the bottom of a receipt, which is sent electronically to the customer, and by keeping tabs on customer satisfaction through this online interaction. The beta version of the platform, which launched a few months ago, has received "hugely positive feedback," Cowing said. "The tough economic times make it easier to proposition people. Everybody needs a little help," he added. The fuel for development came from Cornell where, Cowell said, brainpower and networks have aided him and other start-up thinkers. An information science class that builds programs for local companies created a demo for Cowell, which he used in a 60-second elevator pitch competition held on campus. The competition won Cowell $250,000, which he used to turn the student prototype into a professional software and to hire a full-time team. Prof. Daniel Cohen, entrepreneur in residence at Cornell's eLab, explained that fewer job opportunities tend to encourage start-up activity. "Many students come to us with a business idea that they want to flush out as they interview for jobs with the intention of seriously focusing on their startup if no job offers materialize," Cohen said. Cohen said that the start-up community at Cornell is vibrant and growing. eLab, a business accelerator for Cornell undergraduate entrepreneurs, started only two and a half years ago and already attracts fifty applicants each year for only ten available slots. "We've now helped produce six companies that generate revenue," said Cohen. an Wiggio.com, online service that helps students work in groups, is one of them. Upwards of 550,000 users have signed up and the company raised more than $1 million in venture capital. Alexander Veach and partner Benjamin — who are to launch working Terran Exchange, an online marketplace and analytical platform for commercial software and software utilities — were also inspired by a market need. "Where is the marketplace for small time developers to list their products, many of which are super innovative? It doesn't exit," Veach said. So he and Roberts have been working to create one, he said. Veach explained that he was particularly encouraged by Prof. Donald Greenberg, who told him that their idea was viable because ofthe timing in the electronic technology S-curve, a curve which describes the adoption of an innovation and that restarts every few years. "Greenberg told me that right now, we're at the beginning of the electronic technology Scurve," Veach said. He explained that the rate at which people adopt new tools in this arena is still climbing and that the saturation point is still far off. Veach said that he and Roberts were able to capitalize on the Cornell community's enthusiasm for innovative ideas. When they started to fall behind in a start up competition, they requested votes from the alumni network. The alumni helped them from about 400 votes to about 1700 votes, landing them in first place with the most votes garnered in the history of the competition. "It's amazing to see how fast you can mobilize your network," Roberts said. Prof. Jaquette said that because of Cornell's isolated location, the start up culture is far less pervasive than is exhibited by other universities such as Stanford, which is located near Silicon Valley and San Francisco. It is growing, however, he said. "This year's introductory course to entrepreneurship has an enrollment of 460 students," he said. "Students are going to be the sole proprietors of their own careers, and they know that We seek to teach students how to develop a competitive advantage in their own space and how to understand their space in 'the marketthe feedback place' has been remarkably positive." Students are also involved in social entrepreneurship ventures. Greg Cohn co-founded The DoBand Campaign, which he describes as "an action-oriented social network." Users buy wristbands that are registered on the DoBand website. They then enter what goal they want to accomplish, and by what date. The wrist band serves as a reminder of this goal, and users are meant to wear the bands until they accomplish their decided actions, after which they enter the information on the website and pass the band to someone else. "It's a very pay-it-forward mentality," Cohn said. , ... ...

" With an innovative mixture of alcohol and caffeine that the doubly-exceeds average drink, states are beginning to take notice and, consequently, are banning the beverage on campuses. Sold in 23.5 ounce cans with 6-12 percent alcohol by volume (ABV), Four Loko was introduced in August of 2008. It contains a mix of caffeine, taurine, guarana and alcohol. The name "four" comes from the usage ofthose The drink is offered in 11 flavors, including Orange, Fruit Punch, Lemonade, Cranberry Lemonade,Uva (grape), Watermelon,Blue Raspberry and Lemon Lime. Rhode Island was the first to officially restrict Four Loko following a concert at the University of Rhode Island, where more than 30 students supposedly "pre-gamed" ■ with the drink and wound up being treated for illnesses and injuries related to their consumption. month, Last Washington was the next in line to ban after dozens of students were sickened and 9 were hospitalized----all incidents being linked to drinking Four Loko. Michigan has since followed suit and banned the beverage. Phusion Products, the maker/creater of Four Loko was founded in 2005 by college friends. While the panel feels that the negative impact the drink is having on some students is "inexcuswholeable," they heartedly defend the drink by saying, "People have safely combined caffeine and alcohol for years: rum and colas, Red Bull and vodkas, and Irish coffee are standard fare in bars and restaurants everywhere." So the question remains: what exactly is the problem here? While Four Loko is linked to all of these cases, I see another common theme----irrestudent sponsible — —" I think that it is crazy to blame one drink line for a problem that is like a two-edged sword. Students are going to drink. It's a fact of life. And, regardless of whether they drink Four Loko or Red Bull and vodka, the effects will be the same. The only difference may be the amount of time it takes to get there. Blaming the drink as the sole source ofthe problem is taking the easy way out of the situation. While the drink may pose a greater danger than the average beer or mixer, students are warned about the contents of what they are consuming. Especially now that concerns are being raised in the media spotlight, no one has an excuse of downing multiple cans and claiming ignorance to what they were doing. Danielle Serrao, an LHU junior, believes it "wouldn't be the end of the world" if Four Loko was banned, but "it's just nice because it's cheap." Serrao continued by saying that "[Four Loko] is really ' m up ©i 1 Thumbs Up The Mexican police force arrested one of Mexico's most-wanted this week. Fernandez Valencia, one of the top-8 drug lords in the country and is part of the gang that smuggled 8 tons of marijuana into the U.S. last vear. " think they can drink multiple cans are just stupid. I usually split a can if I'm going to drink one." Case in short---no one wants to blame the students, but rather the company because it's easier, cleaner and probably more likely a success. If they ban the beverage, then the state and college/university administration, in theory, won't have to put up with the illnesses, the injuries and/or the hospitalizations. Wrong. Four Loko may be made illegal, but that's just creating bigger problems. Since it's not banned everywhere, it's still accessible. So, the consumption is still occurring, and it's now being done illegally. And I'm thinking this is a big old "epic fail" at fixing the problem. Until students decide to be responsible drinkers, which may take a little rough experience, the problem will not go away. Four Loko is not responsible for the brainless students of society who think their bodies are indestructible and should not be held account- Thumbs Down A cholera outbreak has plagued Haiti, which is still completely poverty-stricken from the hurricane that made landfall there last year. ■ "SEBU EdU' to the ,. .... . . mmmBmmmm ■ Letters to the editor are the opinion ofthe au and do not reflect the views of the Eagle Eye or its associates.

Some people believed that this bill had been shelved after support groups put pressure to stop the bill from passing.

Last week, Newton was accused of seeking payment through an agent to sign a letter of intent to Mississippi State. Monday new allegations emerged from FoxSports.com, citing an unnamed source who claimed Newton cheated on three separate occasions while the attending University of Florida. "As a father figure to this team and these young guys, I've got a responsibility to defend and protect," Chizik said. "I'm standing up here on a very important week trying to defend something that quite frankly is garbage. What matters to me is coming to the defense of not only a great football player, but a great human being who comes from a great family." Chizik scolded the media for the way these stories were handled publicly. "If you really want to do your homework, go and start with his little league coach, then go to his junior high coach, then go to his high school coach, then go to his junior college coach, and then come talk to any coach at Auburn," Chizik said. "You're going to hear the same thing. So this is a waste of my time, but I'm going to address it because I'm defending a young man that deserves it." Following his opening statement, Chizik refused to answer questions regarding the allegations against Newton. "We've got a very tough game against Georgia this week, and there's going to be a great crowd here at home," Chizik said.

Sure, Adrian Peterson, Chris Johnson, Michael Turner, Hakeem Nicks, Antonio Gates, Philip Rivers, Drew Brees and Aaron Rodgers are about as close to 100 percent trustworthy as you can get, but what about players like Randy Moss, Miles Austin, Brandon Marshall Deangelo Williams and Ryan Matthews who have severly under performed? What do you do with them? long All season Fantasy Football 411 has provided you with a host of players to target on the waiver wire, but at this point there's not much left to choose from so it's time to play "Let's make a deal" in order to upgrade your roster. "Buy Low" means a player has not played well to this point, but based on his remaining schedule he has the potential to become fantasy stud down the stretch. "Sell High" means you've basically gotten all you're going to get out of your overachiever and based on schedule and other factors it's time to ship him off to some other sucker that doesn't have your intuitive foresight to know at this point some players are all name and no numbers. There are plenty of players that fit into this profile; a few are listed Season Record: p 1° It below. Sports Editor I| s ii9rn rn —~ "Buy Low" Brandon Marshall WR (MIA): Marshall only has one touchdown this year, but he started out slow in 2009 and finished the season with 10 touchdowns. Despite the Imi i i li.il I ■ mil' 11.i•I double-digit fantasy points twice this season he's still in the top 10 in yards, receptions and the targets, plus Dolphins play Oakland, Cleveland, Buffalo, Detroit and New England in five of their final six games. A lot of people are low on Marshall: don't be one of them. Jamal Charles RB (KC): Many owners are frustrated by the lack of touches for Charles and so, but rightfully Charles is still sixth in the league in rushing and averages over 10 yards per reception. The Chiefs also have by far the easiest schedule down the stretch when it comes to facing terrible fantasy defenses, so that production could get even better. He's coming off a modest game against the Raiders so try to get him now before it's too late. RB (DEN): Moreno missed three games earlier in the year with various injuries, but coming off a bye he should ready for the stretch run. The Broncos have one of the more potent offenses in the league and in the final month of the season they'll face St. Louis, Oakland, Arizona and Houston. That's a whole lot of production when fantasy owners need it most. He's coming off a five-point game prior to the bye so a lot ofowners Adam WilliamsSports Editor might be down on him so try to get him now while the price is relatively low. You won't be dissappointed. "Sell High" Randy Moss WR (TEN): Plain and simple the guy runs one route and when he's going against a team's best cornerback with safety help over the top and a nickel back to round out the triple team he's not going to catch enough balls or touchdowns to be trusted on a regular basis. With that said there is still some buzz he's a Titan so someone is likely to bite. Trade him now before he plays this week and catches three balls for 40 yards and everyone is down on him again. If you can trade him for Brandon Marshall, do it in a heartbeat! Miles Austin WR (DAL): Aside from matchups with Detroit and Arizona down the stretch most of Austin's matchups are unfavorable. Combine that with the fact that he has three catches or less in f'.HI i.| 111- |H .-S liiU- -l\ games—including two of three with Jon Kitna under center—and Austin can't be counted on as a must start for the remainder of the season. Some owner in your league is bound to still be high on him so shop him around now before that owner sees the light. Once again if Brandon Marshall is on the block in your league, then offer up Austin and see if you can get him. Matt Forte RB (CHI): If you're not in a ppr league then now is the time to get rid ofthis guy. Forte has been one of the biggest over- John VitaleSports Editor Adam- 71-43 John- 64-50 Students- 74-40 Tim- 73-41 Joe- 67-47 achievers in fantasy football this year, but his schedule down the stretch is horrible. Aside from facing the Lions in week 13, every opponent he has left is stout against the run. He also only has one game all season with over 20 carries and Lovie Smith has said the Bears are going to make a concerted effort to get Chester Taylor more involved in the offense. Forte has had some huge games this season so a lot of people will be high on him, but in the fantasy playoffs in weeks 14-17 he'll face New England, Minnesota, the Jets and Green Bay and probably be riding the pine. So at this point it's probably smart to take whatever quality back you can get for him. Don't believe the Hype - Week 10 David Garrard QB (JAC): Garrard is coming off a game in which he accumulated five touchdowns against the Cowboys and this week he'll be facing the worst secondary in the league when the Jags take on the Texans. Houston is struggling of late and surrendering nearly 30 points per game on the season. This game is in Jacksonville and the loser will be in last place, so look for Garrard and the surprising Jags to rise to the occasion. Prediction: 240 passing yards and at least two touchdowns Derrick Mason WR (BAL): Mason got into a minor war of words with Miami's Channing Crowder last week and put his money where his Javarris James RB (IND): Edgerrin James' little cousin scored two touchdowns in week nine against the Eagles, but don't start thinking he's the next great pick up in fantasy football. He only touched the ball four times for 12 yards and the colts only ran it 19 times as a team. The Colts square off with the Cincinnati Bengals this week and while it may seem like a favorable mouth is when he scored a touchdown. This weak there's a war of words between the Falcon's defenders and Joe Flacco after Flacco referred to the Atlanta defense as basic. Expect history to repeat itself and expect Flacco and Mason to perform well when Thursday night football kicks off this week. Prediction: 90 yards and a touchdown Mike Goodson RB (CAR): Deangelo Williams is questionable with a bad foot and matchup, James isn't Jonathan Stewart is worth the risk. Coming likely out with a concusThat means off a loss the Colts will sion. Goodson has a good put the ball in the hands chance of starting of Peyton Manning to against the Bucs this get back to their winning week and even if ways and even if Joseph Williams of Stewart are Addai and Mike Hart active, Goodson will still are unable to return, get a good number of Donald Brown will still touches in the Panthers' get the bulk of the carrun-first offense. ries, so don't believe the Goodson also has a great hype. matchup as Tampa Bay ■ Erica MotterA&E Editor Tim MackNews Editor gives up close to 150 3 yards per game on the ground and alsol— ranks 26th in .i theleague allowect points They in gave up two touchdowns to Michael Turner last week and Carolina's only shot at winning is to run the ball down the Bucs' throats. Prediction: 70 rushing yards and a touchdown Nate Washington WR (TEN): The best way for Randy Moss to prove his worth in Tennessee is to keep his mouth shut, run the same route play after play and attract as much attention as possible so the other players on the field can excel. That's Nate exactly why Washington should have a nice game this week. The Dolphins are familiar with Moss and will do their best to take him out of the game early which means constant single coverage for Washington. Miami isn't terrible against the pass, but their pass defense is definitely the weakest aspect of their D. With so much focus on Moss and Chris Johnson, Washington could be in line for some nice production. Prediction: 85 yards and a touchdown Players with great matchups Eli Manning vs. Dallas, Ben Roethlisberger vs. New England, Ladainian Tomlinson at Cleveland, Cedric Benson at Indianapolis, Michael Crabtree vs. St. Louis, Brandon vs. Lloyd Kansas City,.

Sluggish zombies give life, emotion to modern genre Gerald Rich Daily Texan, U. Texas UWIRE AMC's "The Walking Dead." which premiered Oct. 31 and was green lit for a second season yesterday, is not your usual zombie shoot-emup, race for survival. Instead, it's an unnerving, lingering portrait of survivors and the deceased that eats away at your mind. The show starts off with Deputy Sheriff Rick Grimes getting out of his car on a deserted road. As the camera follows in front of him and keeps a close, tight shot, the viewer slowly sees the extent of the desolation of unoccupied cars lying dead in the middle of nowhere. Then there's a faint noise. The sheriff drops to the ground to look under the cars and sees two pale, dirtied legs shuffling forward with fluffy slippers flecked with dirt. A hand drops down into the shot and picks up a teddy bear. WALKING DEAD You think it's a sign Some of you may know that whoever this person Darabont's other works, is, she's definitely cogsuch as "The Shawshank nizant — not dead but posRedemption" or "The sibly stunned or starving.

One of the first looks that viewers get of a real zombie is the upper torso of a woman pulling herself through an empty park on a sunny day — hardly fast or deadly. The horror comes from watching as her entrails drag behind her, flesh rotting, thinning hair hanging over her decomposed face as she tries to grasp at Grimes. And the camera takes its sweet time to remain on that image until you realize this was once a living human being who's been stripped of dignity, awareness and emotion. All that remains is half of her body, a ceaseless cannibalistic desire and maybe the occasional vestigial memories. The whole series is the exact opposite of the modern horror that pops out and scares you. Instead, it won't let you sleep because your mind keeps going back to the details of that woman in the park or the girl with her teddy bear. with Jared A.

So, what're you reading? I was reading "Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America." It's for my Kaleidoscope class, and written by Barbara Ehrenrich. It was an easy read, and she did a good job at drawing the reader in. It really did a good job of explaining how the underpaid and overworked Americans are struggling in today's economy. [Ehrenrich] puts herself in the shoes of these workers who are facing poverty every day. B >m W: ' So, are you enjoying the Kaleidoscope class? Yes, very much so!

"The stars were falling all around me They appeared to be as large as my fist and at once on touching the earth they disappeared They fell on my head, but I can't say I felt more than a slight sensation, if anything." Lou Bernard/Eagle Eye An artist who heard about the 1833 meteor shower drew a conceptualized picture of what the meteor shower might have looked like over the Heisey Museum, which was once a hotel where founder Lock Haven Jerry Church watched the meteors fall from the sky for hours. By Lou Bernard Curator Clinton County Historical Society It began as a night like any other night. Lock Haven had just been founded nine days before. Town founder Jerry Church was staying in the hotel that later became the Heisey Museum, as he waited for his tree house to be built on Church Street. Retired pirate James Jefferis was building his home on Bald Eagle Street. Local hotel owner Frank Smith was organizing an amateur theater group called the Thespian Society. Farmer John Yarger had recently grown a record-setting radish that weighed over ten pounds. It was November 13, 1833. At about five in the morning, I r ARIES uMWmW it began. It was an event that came to be known as the Rain of Fire. It was one of the most spectacular meteor showers ever seen, and it happened as Lock Haven was first created. The event began with a noise, described in Linn's History as "a hurtling sound, which ceased at the approach of dawn, and the spectacle exhibited its splendors in silence." And then, a brilliant meteor shower broke out, and the sky was filled with falling, blazing lights. People rushed from their homes to watch, thinking it was the end of the world. Everyone assumed their homes were going to burn and they were all going to die. But the lights, flying across the sky in toward the LIBRA 9/23-10/22 3/21-4/19 A strong feeling (good or bad) going to be overwhelming th week.
