They can have up to 18 characters routed into them with blue pickets meaning "in honor of and yellow pickets meaning "in memory of."

How you dress for that ultra-important interview is as important as the interview itself.

The first step in that process is to tone down the accessories that you don.Keep the amount of rings and earrings that you wear to a minimum - no more than two rings per hand and no more than one earring per ear.

Wrestlers turn to different sport Nicole Pinto Staff Reporter The wrestling team will be working along side a completely different sport on Friday, October 6 for their fifth annual LHU Wrestling Classic Golf Tournament. Entry fees for the tournament range between $85 for one person and up to $340 for a group of four. The fees cover the game and equipment needed, food, and door prizes. The tournament has raised a total of over $85,000 since 2002. The money raised goes towards the wrestlers' scholarships and equipment. Lock Haven Wrestling is NCAA Division 1 and they need scholarships to attract quality wrestlers from across the coun"This is a great opportunity for the wrestler's to meet the people who contribute to the program," said Brian Ellis, a junior who worked the tournament the past two years. "The event is a tremendous positive to our program. It brings hundreds of former wrestlers and supporters back to the Haven," said Coach Anthony (Rocky) Bonomo. "It is a great interaction between wrestlers, coaches, and those that support the team, and it keeps us together on and off the mat," said Ellis. Former head wrestling Coach Carl Poff, Dr. Thane Turner, along with other staff members wrestling to life. this tournament brought The real start began with the lead gift of $15,000 from former alum, athlete, coach, and CEO of the Mastec Corporation, Austin Shanfelter. "Austin and his group always add additional funds to help make the event the most single successful day of fund raising ever at Lock Haven University," said Bonomo. The nonprofit Lock Haven University Foundation raises money for students, faculty, and programs, and they will be hosting this year's tournament. This tournament is held all day from 7:30 a.m. through 2:20 p.m. at the Clinton Country Club in Mill Hall. After the tournament there will be a banquet dinner in honor of five wrestlers being inducted into the Hall ofFame Mike Guerin, Mike Rogers, Cary Kolat, Terry Showalter, and Ryan Leitzel.

Phase II focused on sling load operations. Students had to memorize the maximum payload each aircraft was capable oftransporting, while learning how to properly rig and inspect each sling load prior to liftoff.

Phase III is by far the most enjoyable phase, as students learn to rappel off of 45 foot towers, using several different rappel techniques. FRIES is nothing more than tossing a heavy duty nylon rope out of the helicopter, and sliding down to the ground at a high rate of speed. The exam for this phase is only hands on, but is physically demanding, as each student must demonstrate each rappel to near perfection. If the student has passed each phase and has passed the required 4, 8, and 12-mile road marches, along with each inspection of the students' individual equipment, then he or she will be awarded Air Assault wings. To put everything in perspective, my class, class 2606 started the school with around 150 students, and only graduated with close to 75. As the course's physical demands are only surpassed by its mental demands, it is worth noting that most of the failures resulted from failing the technical examinations. A4 A yearbook advisor was From, Yearbook, Al Josten's just had a lot ofpositives as far as closeness to campus, closeness of sales representatives to campus, package deals and pricing," said Wise. "They had the best deal of what we needed, especially after just starting this up again." Wise also mentioned that the funding for the new yearbook is to come from advertising, parental support, alumni donations and reimbursements from the photographers. After the first few steps of resurrecting the yearbook, deciding on funding and a publishing company, the time had come to put together a staff. Applications for an editorin-chief, junior editor and photo editor, as well as yearbook staff applications were available to all students at the end ofthe spring semester and the beginning of this year's fall semester. 1 27, 2006 lhuea also needed. "1 chose Professor Shillig because she is so enthusiastic about teaching. I thought that if she was going to put that much effort into teaching our class, she would do the same for our yearbook," said Editorin-chief William Dowd. "I was approached by the editor-in-chief and photo editor [Lyndsay Jasper], both of whom were former students of mine, and they asked if I would like to be the yearbook advisor, and I was delighted," said Shillig. Although it is going to be a new adventure for Shillig, Dowd and the staff, they are all very thrilled about this opportunity. "After not having a yearbook for so long, it is very exciting that they are bringing it Back," said Shillig. Dowd agreed. "The whole aspect of the the yearbook, recording school's history is so appealing to me. I'm very eager to get started," said Dowd. As far as a theme for the yearbook, Dowd and the other editors first asked the question, what would students want to see? "The yearbook's theme this year is "What Defines Me?" We will have definitions of words throughout the yearbook and corresponding pictures that will depict the different aspects of student life on campus," said Dowd. "The final product will hopefully bring everyone together." As far as the rest of the stafffor the yearbook, Carolyn Adkins is in charge ofthe student life section; Jenny Dubich and Courtney Shepherd will work on the section entitled Greek life; Elizabeth Pursel, Courtney Meyer and Ashley Griffis will be covering clubs and organizations; Christina Vallez and Lindsay Kelley have the academics section; and Amanda Klein, Katelyn Haneman and Corey Rolls have been chosen for the section devoted to athletics. "I worked on my high school's yearbook and really enjoyed being a part of something so memorable" said Shepherd. "I'm working on the Greek section, because I'm involved with ZTA and am familiar with the members of different fraternities and sororities." The Praeco will be given as a present to all graduating students of the current year, the first one in May 2007. If a student is graduating in December, he or she will receive a yearbook during the summer. Yearbooks will be mailed to the student after the graduation ceremonies, as to be able to include them in the yearbook of the current year. Other non-graduating students will be able to purchase a yearbook for a fee if desired. This information will be released later in the year when a final price has been agreed upon and more details become available.

OPINION onservative s 1 eas come out o e re fc This is a reaction letter to a guest columnist article, 'Disease of liberalism on national Sept. 20 edition of the Eagle Eye. Dear Editor, Conservatives never cease what comes out of their mouths. Sorry, but that line was too good not to tweak and use. Jason Hackney seems to have a few ideas about liberalism that must have come straight out ofthe blue, orred in his case. Despite the fact that what he wrote was incredibly insulting, it was also extremely biased and factually skewed. You cannot judge [a group of people] based on what came out of one person's mouth. If that was the case, what would people think ofPresident Bush when he said, "I know the human being and fish can coexist peacefully" or "the war on terror involves Saddam Hussein because of the nature of Saddam Hussein, the history of Saddam Hussein and his willingness to terrorize himself? Yeah, let's not all go by what one person says. I quote from Hackney's article: "He [Ed Rendell] said, '...We came here with the best of intentions and wanted to create freedom and democracy for all...I'm going to ask the international community to develop a peacekeeping force and reduce our presence. We're going to help you build houses, to amaze me by - .!■ I■'>■' provide aid and economic opportunity for your people.' Yay! Then we can all go home and eat Lucky Charms on fluffy pillows..." Didn't Bush enter Iraq with the best of intentions? Didn't he want to create freedom and a democracy? Don't bash Rendell for wanting to do something the president has already done. According to MSNBC, Hackney? He used a cable news channel as a source? Is it because cable news is so unbiased and so bipartisan that it makes it a great source to cite? He may also want to add that while we are rebuilding infrastructure, firehouses, police stations and schools; there are very few Iraqi civilians that want to work in those fields. They are afraid ofbeing targeted by the insurgents for "working with the Americans." Who cares if they have access to cell phones when they don't even have a stable supply of electricity to fully charge the batteries for those phones? Most cities and towns in Iraq do have public services (water, fuel, electricity, etc.) and they have their building intact, but those same towns and cities didn't see any fighting and if they did it was minimal. The only places being rebuilt are the ones that still nosing their way into people lives to make sure they abide by the word of God, Allah or whomever. That is where the trouble starts. Okay, so much for things in common. I'm from New Jersey, so forgive me if I don't know Ed Rendell as well as people from Pennsylvania, but if you don't think he should represent us, who should? What I'm trying to get at is one nut-job is as good as another. Democrat, Republican, liberal, conservative, 3rd party, Green party. Communist party; It doesn't matter because nothing one person says will fix this mess. Here is where I have a major issue with Hackney's letter. We cannot export a "different, fresh idea of self government to the region in order to provide an alternative for all people there to see," if the region and its people do not accept or respect who brings the "new" govern- contain fighting or have seen heavy combat. I guess I'm the "lefty loon" to all the right-wing whackos here, huh? Germany did indeed take many, many long years to rebuild - but guess what? Germany had help doing it. They got assistance from the ally powers and neutral countries as well, unlike Iraq, which only has the United States and Britain as its main sources of reconstruction aid. Hackney and I do agree on at least two things: "The problem is the extremist strain in the Islamic religion" and "Almost every religion has extremists." I went to a Roman Catholic grammar school from kindergarten to 8th grade. I went to a Catholic high school, Notre School of High Dame Lawrenceville, NJ. I've seen my share of Bible-thumping preachers and heard all about fire and brimstone. I've also seen my share ofmoderates and everything else in between. To me, it is the moderates who seem the most happy. They live a good life not too much and not too little. They may not go to church as often but the phrase "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you," plays well in their life. The extremists are the ones ment. Who are we to say, "The Coalition just toppled Saddam, his reign of terror is over, the government you've had for the past twenty-four years is finished, do things our way now?" - Joseph Melber Guest Columnist If / were to list the top ten detrimental event in history. Although a reverse shift in research and development is typical in all wars, there is a reason that World War I ranks nowhere near the devastation of WWII. WWII resulted also in reestablishing longstanding political systems as well as causing an enormous tripping up of culture as the plight of the Jewish has become a taboo all over the world as a result, though this plight existed far before the Holocaust began. In terms of the results of shifting political systems, every single political system invaded by a country had to rediscover its roots after WWII. As a result, those left to satellite the United States and the Soviet Union in the Cold War which included virtually all of the industrialized world and pre-industrial historical tragedies of the world, the Holocaust of World War II would be number one with a bullet. However, this series of articles is about how each historical event negatively affects today. Thus, Adolf Hitler comes in at number eight. His biggest err against humanity was not, in my opinion, the Holocaust, but the destruction caused by his grand military strategy the blitzkrieg. This tactic reversed the progression of war-making strategy from the new realm of industrial complex targeting, back to clean sweep Norsestyle looting, pillaging and fire-starting of earlier times.

These deaths - as welt as the deaths during the Cold War and the numerous revolutions just outlined, produced far-reaching results all over the world. This is not a tragedy because ofthe fact that people were killed in history; but because the best and brightest people died during this period of high-end wartime technology. Those lives that were lost were of an obvious greater value to society. Finally, this war was not only detrimental to political systems in terms of dislocation, but also to those countries which came under the control of despots during the time and were apt to bring forth new political systems which were inferior to their previous ones. example, Take, for Germany; Hitler's result for its political system is now one of the most convoluted systems in existence, combining America's Republican system as well as the British Parliamentary system.

Immigration vital to economic development Haley Paul Daily Evergreen Washington State University PULLMAN, (U-WIRE) Wash. As a native ofPhoenix, Ariz., I am used to the cultural adaptations that take place in a border state. Whether it is driving through the Mexican community of Guadalupe, Ariz., scanning the radio waves and hearing countless Spanish stations, or seeing English and Spanish on just about every and building, Phoenix Arizona as a whole - is inundated with immigrants. This inundation is the natural result of a long history of immigration of people from Mexico and Central and South America into the U.S. The diversity the immigrants bring only enriches the culture of the U.S. Increasingly, however, problems are arising because of our past encouragement of people to come to the U.S. and work. The problems we face today are associated with the vast numbers of people attempting to get in and the strain they put on our city, state and national resources once they do. On Sept. 19, The Daily Evergreen printed an article from The Washington Post that discussed a national competition promoted by the U.S. government to develop the - - - - Feminism needs rethinking Matthew White Daily Kent Stater Kent State University (U-WIRE) KENT, Ohio lhBeagleye@yahoo.com faculty Advisor A7 e.com lhu September 27, 2006 best and most technologically advanced way to patrol our southern border. Boeing Co. won the bid, with the expectation that its technology will create the best border fence. However, the issue lies not with how we are going to cut off any illegal means of entering our country, but with whether we should be trying to keep people out at all. Eastern Washington is no stranger to the issues associated with immigration. It is impossible to say "keep them out" when as many farmers will attest the cheap, productive labor is vital to agricultural industries. Unlike what many proponents ofstricter immigration laws claim, these workers do not take jobs away from Americans; Americans refuse to do the jobs immigrants take. This year alone, due to the increased awareness after the spring immigration rallies, border patrol in the Southwest was sufficiently stepped up so farmers in the Northwest could feel its effects: loss oflabor and loss of profits. Without enough workers to pick their pears, farmers all across Washington are finding it hard to make their bottom line. We must stop debating whetherwe should allow immi- - It might be my boorish Midwestern roots speaking, but the theories espoused by feminists seem to miss the point of male-female equality- Some of these theories bring to mind images of rogue-citizen vigilantes rising up and instituting "equality" through force. For example, Mary Daly, a self-proclaimed radical feminist, used the power of her position to do just that. In 1998, Daly refused to admit male students into her Boston College classes, When challenged, she took the position that she would rather resign than admit the students. Later, after her employment was terminated, she filed a lawsuit. Judge Martha Sosman, who presided over the case, said, "Indeed there is no question that the school has adequate cause to terminate Daly if for some reason her promise to resign turns out to be unenforceable." In short, Daly's actions, a result of her flawed notion of equality, were enough of a reason to fire her. Not all theories of feminism require such separatebut-equal tactics, but they are equally troublesome. For instance, other feminists largely view the criminalization of prostitution to be an act ofmale dominance, Now, sensible people realize that prostitution is illegal because it's harmful to society and to the individuals who I engage in the practice. However, these feminists believe someone in high office wants to keep women down. This is an example of ignoring the best interests for society in pursuit of a narrow, misguided agenda. those Theories like espoused by Daly and other feminists simply miss the point that true male-female equality comes from a sexneutral society. Overly intellectual feminist theories are great for academic settings, but are largely impractical and fail when held up to objective standards ofjustice. A better definition of feminism would be equal rights for equal responsibilities, such as what exists now under the law. Women deserve equal treatment in the social, professional and academic worlds. But, they also deserve equal responsibilities. Women pay the same taxes and have the same Constitutional rights as men, and because of that, they deserve exactly the same For example, women serving our nation in the military are given a defacto, secondclass status because there are activities they're not allowed to do, such as serving on the front lines. If the true spirit of equality were carried forth from our Constitution, then this practice would be ended. To end sexist discrimination, we need to change opinions, and the best way to do that is to remind one another of the sensible approach already adopted into law.

Burning leaves causes pollution From the Editors of E/The Environmental Magazine Dear I arthTalk: Now that autumn is here the leaves are going to pile up in my yard again. Is it really that bad to burn them? Why is it illegal to burn leaves in so many places now? ~ Jeffrey Edwards, Westport, CT Burning fallen leaves used be standard practice across North America, but most municipalities now ban or discourage the incendiary practice due to the air pollution it causes. The good news is that many towns and cities now offer curbside pickup ofleaves and other yard waste, which they then turn into compost for park maintenance or for sale commercially. And there are other burn-free options as well. Because of the moisture that is usually trapped within leaves, they tend to burn slowly and thus generate large amounts of airborne particulates—fine bits of dust, soot and other solid materials. According to Wisconsin's of Natural Department Resources, these particulates can reach deep into lung tissue and cause coughing, wheezing, chest pain, shortness of breath and sometimes longterm respiratory problems. Leaf smoke may also contain hazardous chemicals such as carbon monoxide, which can bind with the hemoglobin in the bloodstream and reduce the amount of oxygen in the blood and lungs accordingly. Another noxious chemical BJ2T- * • BL^b^I to Don't burn leaves; play In them! commonly present in leaf smoke is bdnzo(a)pyrene, which has been shown to cause cancer in animals and is believed to be a major factor in lung cancer caused by cigarette smoke. And while breathing in leaf smoke can irritate the eyes, nose and throat of healthy adults, it can really wreak havoc on small children, the elderly and people with asthma or other lung or heart diseases. Sporadic individual leaf fires usually don't cause any major pollution, but multiple fires in one geographic area can cause concentrations ofair pollutants that exceed federal air quality standards. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), several leaf and yard waste fires burning simultaneously in a particular locale can cause air pollution rivaling that from factories, motor vehicles and lawn equipment. Purdue University consumer horticulture specialist Rosie Lerner says that composting leaves is the most ecofriendly alternative to burning. Dry leaves alone will take a long time to break down, she says, but mixing in green plant materials, such as grass trimmings, will speed up the process. Sources of nitrogen, such as livestock manure or commercial fertilizer, will also help. "Mix the pile occasional- ly to keep a good supply ofair in the compost," she says, adding that a compost pile should be a minimum of three cubic feet and will generate soil conditioner within weeks or a few months, depending on conditions. Another option is to shred leaves for use as mulch for your lawn or to help protect garden and landscape plants. Lerner suggests adding no more than a two-to-three-inch layer ofleaves around actively growing plants, chopping or shredding the leaves first so they don't matt down and prevent air from reaching roots. As to using leaves as mulch for your lawn, it is just a simple matter of mowing right over the leaves with the lawnmower and leaving them there. As with leaves used for garden mulch, this will provide many benefits, including weed suppression, moisture conservation and moderation of soil temperature.

Mansfield tacked on seven more on its next possession, but almost came away with nothing. Looking at a fourth and seven on the LHU 25 yard line and 8:30 left, hit Blakeslee Tyrone Robinson on a slant for the first down. Blakeslee capped the 15-play 80-yard drive with a one-yard touchdown run. Another swing of the game toward LHU followed with a blocked punt, as senior Derek Harsch swatted the kick and Jonathan Nalewak returned it for 43 yards, cutting the Mansfield lead to 2116. The blocked punt for a touchdown was the first by LHU since 2002 against Edinboro University, when Nathan Eck (2003) scooped up a kick blocked by Jarrod Hendricks (2004). The tough LHU defense held Mansfield to another three-and-out, giving DiPaolo and the offense 76 yards and 1:52 to work with, down four. After the TD, DiPaolo faked the hold on the kick and ran for two points and thc final Brandon Apter 'Sports Reporter In a game filled with trickery, turnovers, and fourth down conversions, the LHU Bald Eagle Football team spoiled Mansfield's homecoming game by coming back to win 24-21. "We had talked about competing for 60 minutes," said LHU head coach John Klacik. "Just give 60 minutes of effort and we'll see if you're better than the other team. I don't know if we played fundamentally for 60 minutes today, but never gave up for the full time, and it was enough to win today." A 69-yard heave from freshman Ilio DiPaolo to senior Troy Wile, Jr. with 1:52 left was the final momentum swing the Bald Eagles needed. Faced with fourth-andgoal later that drive, Perry Smith went over the top for the one-yard touchdown and the game's final score.

Listed below, in no specific order, are the top five reasons you should have followed week three in the NFL. Number one. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers finally scored their first touchdown ofthe season. After being shut out in week one by Baltimore, and scoring only three points last week against Atlanta, the Bucs finally reached the end zone in the second quarter oftheir game against Carolina Sunday. With about eight minutes to go until halftime, quarterback Chris Simms connected with wide receiver Joey Galloway for a touchdown. Tampa Bay actually led the game 24-23, until Carolina kicker Jon Kasay hit a game-winning 46-yard field goal with two seconds remaining. Not only did Tampa Bay lose the game, but Simms also lost his spleen. After apparently rupturing his spleen during the game, they had to immediately perform an emergency procedure ito remove it. Number two. The Cincinnati Bengals got some sense of revenge on the Pittsburgh Steelers, defeating them 28-20 at Heinz Field. Not only did the Steelers drop their record to 12, but "Big Ben" Roethlisberger completed less than 50% of his passes, going 18-for-39, and threw three interceptions, along with no touchdowns. I am not sure if he came back too soon from his injury, or if he is just not that good of a quarterback. 1 will let you decide that. So far, through two games, he has completed 35 of 71 passes for 349 yards with zero touchdowns and five interceptions. get their first victory of the season. Although the fact that the Packers got a victory is no ground-breaking event, though they may not have many more this season, Favre did get his 400th career passing touchdown. He became only the second player in NFL history, the other being Dan Marino, to reach that milestone. Favre also tacked on 2 more touchdowns after that and finished the day with 340 passing yards, three touchdowns and zero interceptions. Number four. On Monday night, the NFL and the Saints return to New Orleans. For the first time since before Hurricane Katrina, there was an NFL game held in New Orleans. Although the game itself may not have lived up to expectations, it was still a night no one will forget, at least for fans in New Orleans. Not only was there football to be played, there were also live performances by Green Day and U2. Number five. Defensive tackle Mike Patterson of the Philadelphia Eagles scored a touchdown on a 98-yard fumble recovery return. After the San Francisco 49ers failed to cross the goal line on both 1st and 2nd goal, running back Frank Gore was stuffed yet again. At first, it appeared as if the play was over and the 49ers would soon be lining up for a field goal attempt, however, seconds later, you could see the 292-pound Patterson running down the field carrying the football. About five minutes later, Patterson crossed the goal line and put the Eagles up 31-3. "I didn't hear a whistle, so 1 justpicked it up and ran with it," said Patterson. "I felt it on the 40, started breathing real hard. 1 just tried to remember my form." With this 98-yard fumble recovery return, he broke the previous record of 96-yards, set in 1974. Hopefully, these five plays, along with others not mentioned, will be enough to hold us NFL fans over until week four.

As ofTuesday only 13 teams were still mathematically in the playoff hunt, with only eight available spots you do the math. In the National League, the more competitive league, eight teams remain in it, but it would take a miracle for the Florida Marlins and the Cincinnati Reds to make it. The Reds sit five games back with only six games left to play while the Marlins sit six games back with six games left to play. The Los Angeles Dodgers and the Philadelphia Philles, who are currently tied atop the Wild Card, would have to lose out for either team to have a chance. The Florida Marlins basically dumped their whole team into the hands of the New York Mets. 1 give a lot of credit to manager Joe Giradi, who took a payroll of less than what 13 current Major League, players are making, and turning them into a .500 ball club. Atop the NL West is the San Diego Padres who have a slim two game lead over the Dodgers. The NL Central could be the division to watch. The Houston Astros sit two and a half games behind the first place St. Louis Cardinals with six games left to play. The Astros are far A Southeastern Conference championship. A national championship.

The six games that the Astros have left are against the Pittsburgh Pirates and the Atlanta Braves who haven't fared well this year. Meanwhile the Cardinals have to play two games against the Padres and four against the Milwaukee Brewers. Of course the New York Mets have dominated the NL East, which is a big change from the 14 years the Braves dominated that division. The American League playoff picture isn't so bright. With so many large market teams in the AL, very few teams have a chance ofmaking the playoffs. Only five teams have a chance to make the playoffs and the Los Angeles Angels ofAnaheim trail the Oakland Athletics by five games, in the AL West, with only six games left to play. So in order for the Angels to make the playoffs, the A's must lose out and the Angels must win out. The AL Central is the only league with competition left as the Minnesota Twins and the Detroit Tigers fight over first place. The loser, however, still gets a playoff birth as no one else is even close to the Wild Card. The Yankees beat up the AL East to take yet another division title. So with all this turmoil and only one week left to play my World Series prediction is this: The L.A. Dodgers vs. the Minnesota Twins, with the Dodgers, on the back ofGreg Maddux, winning in six. UF title hopes hinge on four games Antonio Gonzalez Independent Florida Alligator cool to ourself The Tigers on the other hand seem to be righting the ship. For the first time in 18 years the Tigers have clinched a playoff birth. However, for 18 long years the Tigers have been the laughing stock of the entire sports world. My high school football team had better season records than the Tigers and we only played 14 games at the most each season. 1 hope to the highest of powers that this isn't a fluke for the Tigers. First off, I admit that I'm partial to the underdogs, so I would like to see them have a little sustained success and secondly, Detroit and its fans deserve a winning team in a sport that people still want to watch. I'm jumping on the bandwagon. aseball playoff race - NORTH teams that have brought most ofthe success to Detroit in recent memory are ail but forgotten. This brings me to what could be the worst sports franchises in the entire world. Detroit Lions and Tigers have courageo displayed for as long as 1 can remember ! not to be a winning franchise. Watching a Lions game is like watching opposing team have practice. No one can r< ly tell if the Lions are there or not. When sea end up being 45-3 1 often wonder who sco the three points. Then I remember that Deti does have a football team, but maybe tl would be more suitable for a powder p 9-3. None will be achieved if the Gators don't succeed during their next four games -- one of the toughest stretches in their 100-year history. UF will clash with Alabama, No. 2 Auburn, No. 9 LSU and No. 10 Georgia, respectively, during the upcoming weeks. These games will likely define UFs season. The only other ranked opponent the Gators' play is Florida State, and that game has no bearing on an SEC championship. However, despite the daunting task at hand, the Gators have downplayed the harrowing stretch. When asked Monday how important it will be to their season, players and coaches alike produced the same answer: "You have to take it one game at a time." The answers came in different forms. Center Steve Rissler said: "It's not our focus. We're justtaking it game-by-game. Right now we're just preparing for Alabama. We're not even thinking about the next three." Linebacker Brandon Siler said: "We can't do anything but think about Alabama." Wide receiver Jemalle Cornelius added: "Win. You play to win the game. So, I mean, that's our mentality." Coach Urban Meyer got in on the action as well. When a reporter asked Monday about the stretch's bearing on national title hopes, Meyer responded by saying, "That's not one of our goals." The coach later repeated, "We play Alabama. We play Alabama." Ironically, only quarterback Tim Tebow answered the question with a semi-honest answer. "It's everything," Tebow said. "It's huge. You got to win." If the Gators have any hopes of making the trip to Atlanta for the SEC Championship Game, not to mention a shot at that elusive national title, they will have to perform well during the next month. No other team in thc nation will face as many ranked opponents in as short of span. And given UF's recent history against them, it's a grim task. The Gators lost to Alabama and LSU last season. Auburn has now become a national championship contender. And Georgia is always a tough rivalry. So the task at hand doesn't appear light. The focus the Gators have at least appeared to show toward this week's game was absent last season. But just like last year, UF entered the 2005 Alabama game 4-0 and with momentum on their side. However, they were dominated 31-3 in Tuscaloosa, Ala. The memory ofAlabama players and fans doing the Gator Chomp and throat-slashing gestures in Tuscaloosa is one the Gators won't soon forget. "It was real bitter," Cornelius said about the taunting. "It's definitely motivation." Motivation has now led to concentration. That is, only on UF's next opponent each week. However, any success the Gators attain this season will likely come from their play during the next four games. But no matter how intimidating this portion ofthe schedule may be, the Gators, at least for now, are just taking it "one game at a time."

"We live in such a sex-negative nation, and I fear it is only getting worse." Friedman also discussed methods to having more pleasurable sex, three conditions to meet before you are ready to have sex, and three reasons males always want sex. "Before you and your partner have sex for the first time, you should meet these three conditions: Affirm, Accept, and Assure," said Friedman. "You must be able to perform with the lights on, use disease and birth control, and know the pleasure is mutual."

From 80's, B8 The female sex symbols and icons were big in the KO's. Cyndi Lauper with her pink hair and rocker outfits changed female performers' looks. She had hits like "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun," and "Time after Time." Madonna sung "Holiday." "Borderline." "Material Girl." "Papa Don't Preach," "Lucky Star," "Virgin," and "Like a Prayer.". The list ofher songs that hit the top ofthe charts in the KO's is endless, but every song's lyrics pushed the envelope a little further, along with her sexy outfits and These women paved the way for many stars like Tiffany, who sung "I Think We're Alone Now," which was released in 1987. and for stars like Britney Spears today. Who can forget a talented man like Stevie Wonder who had two huge hits, "I Just Called to Say I Love You," (1984) and "Part-Time Lover" (1985). In the 80's you could definitely try some funky moves with music like "Walk like an Egyptian" by The Bangles, "Busta Move" by Young M.C., "La Bamba" by Los Lobos and "The Loco-Motion" by Kylie Minogue. The patriotic side of the 80's brought songs like "Bom in the U.S.A." by Bruce Springsteen and "We are the World" by U.S.A. for Africa. Who could forget all the sappy love songs like "Say You Say Me" by Lionel Richie, "Somewhere Out There" by Linda Ronstadt and James Ingram and "If You Don't Know Me by Now" by Simply Red. Whitney Houston showed her strong vocals in songs like "The Greatest Love of All," "I Wanna Dance with Somebody," and "Saving all my Love for You." What's Rock and Roll without "Wild Thing" by Tones Loe, "Sweet Child O'Mine" by Guns N'Roses, "Livin' on a Prayer" by Bon Jovi and "Pour some Sugar on Me" by Def Leppard. The Best Sing-a-Long Award definitely goes to the "Love Shack" by B-52, with its tongue twisting lyrics. The ultimate college party song for not only the 80's but every decade would be "(You gotta) Fight for Your Right (to party)" by The Beastie Boys. The chill side ofthe 80's could be found in songs like "Kokomo" by the Beach Boys or "Red Red Wine" by UB40. If you are an 80's child, you know the abbreviation NKOTB. In 1989 the group New Kids on the Block released their first hit "You Got It (Thc Right Stuff)." Oh, this group led us into the 90's and paved the way for Back Street Boys and N'SYNC.

Not knowing what these daredevils have up their sleeves, the audience is left on the edge of their seats from the opening credits to the eagerly anticipated bloopers that seem to accompany any comedic movie nowadays. "1 never knew what they were going to come up with next," said senior Travis Rechel. Each scene of the movie introduces a new prank or idiotic stunt enacted entirely by the cast, with a few celebrity director 'fl mm' .1^1 An Photos Courtesy of Google Images The Jackass gang is at it again in their second movie installment with stunts that are both amusing and idiotic. Spike Jonze. A prime prankster scene takes place in a hotel hallway where the Jackass cast is staying for a segment of filming. Hanging on the wall is a "letter from a fan" addressed to the east. The writing on the letter gets smaller and smaller as it goes on. In order to read it, Bam and the other guys have to get extremely close to the letter. What he does not realize, is that Knoxville is just on the other side of the wall planning to pull a hilarious yet extremely painful practical joke. As Margera and the others get closer to the letter, Knoxville pulls a lever and the guy who is directly in front ofthe letter gets socked in the face by a boxing glove. Although mundane compared to the life-threatening stunts the Jackass gang is accustomed to getting themselves into, this trick was somehow shocking to the audience. They seemed to feel pain for the unsuspecting victim. When he was knocked senseless, the theater errupted into sympathetic awes followed by bursts of laughter. Mm mm "When they did something stupid, I kind of felt their pain with them," said sophomore Ted Stake. "But it was still some of the funniest things I have ever seen." The Jackass gang did a lot of things that caused audience members to laugh themselves almost to tears and some things that almost made them lose their dinners. In order to avoid a more painful skit later on in the movie, Pontius decided to drink fresh semen from a stallion in the skit "Milking a Horse." With stunts that range anywhere from launching themselves with rockets to tampering with a bull's temper to eating and smelling the unimag- mmm inable, "Jackass 2" is almost as if the audience is viewing twenty movies for the price of one. This movie was jaw-dropping, awe-enticing, side-splitting comedy that never ceased to entertain.

University Players and the LHU of Department Performing Arts have kicked casts m\\\\W-' off their provocative 20062007 production season, featuring romance, murder, and comedy skillfully laced through a diverse list of challenging social issues. The first show to take the stage is "Stop Kiss," by Diana Son, which features two women whose first kiss pro- vokes a violent hate crime. Through a series of flashbacks, the story of Callie and Sara unfolds, revealing the events that lead to the climax ofthe final scene.

Crazy for the 80's: Cherishing the music Nicole Pinto Staff Reporter Most of us here at Lock Haven University were born in the wonderful years ofthe 80's. Even students here at the university who were not born in the 80's have sung along, danced, and loved the songs. Therefore, in honor ofthis year's 80's homcoming theme, it bears reminicing about our favorite old tunes. We 80's children were actually born into Rock and Roll, as the song "I Love Rock N' Roll," by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts hit the charts in 1982. In 1985,Rock and Roll became a city, according to Starship in their song, "We Built this City." When it comes to sportsmanship you can't forget the 1982 song "Eye ofthe Tiger" by Survivor. Songs like "Jenny/867-5309," Tommy Tutone, was probably the first phone number you ever learned. Of course, you still may not know who exactly "Jack and Diane" are, but everytime you hear John Cougar sing about them, you feel like they're old friends. Who could forget the Michael Jackson songs and music videos that made him known world wide? "Beat It," "Billie Jean" and "Smooth Criminal" were just a few hits that took him to the top. Donna Summers knew what she was talking about in 1983 with "She Works Hard for the Money," and who hasn't seen a reference in a movie or television show to Marvin Gaye's "Sexual Healing" during a love scene? When you went roller skating, not roller blading, you can't forget tunes like Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart," Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam with Full Force's "All Cried Out," or the Cutting Crew's "(I Just) Died in your Arms." t If you were born in the 80's, you probably know who you're gonna call, right? Of course "Ghostbusters," by Ray Parker Jr. Tina Turner asked, "What's love got to do with it?" She didn't have to worry about love with those See 80's, B6 in love with it. "Since the show is set in New York City, I tried to have a diverse cast, in effort to stay true to the script," said Woodring. "I'm really excited about this cast; they will play it fantastic." Senior Melissa Hanson, playing the role of Callie, is just as excited to be part of the cast. "Out of all of the shows that I've been a part of, this is probably my favorite," said Hanson. "It is a very rich script. In a way, itresembles a Quentin Tarantino movie because it jumps all over the place, but you get it." "Stop Kiss" runs Oct. 18, 19, 20, and 21 at 8:00 p.m. in the Countdown Theatre. The second performance of the fall is Sophie Treadwell's 1928 expressionistic masterpiece, "Machinal," which is based on the real-life Snyder-Gray murder trial. Treadwell, a journalist herself, was critical of sensational journalism and was interested in writing about what may have driven Snyder to murdering her husband, which she explores in the drama through a series ofnine episodes in the woman's life. "The language for this show is difficult for the performers," said Dr. Christine Woodworth, director of "Machinal." "It is telegraphic writing, the hallmark of American Expressionism, and is more rhythmic to the ear. Fortunately, our cast has a lot ofrhythm." Woodworth, along with Assistant Professor Stephen Haynes and former department chair, Dr. Gino Cheikis, decided to propose this show to the UP Executive Board in part because of its contrast to the main stage performance last spring, "The Little Shop of Horrors." "We want both the students involved in the performance and the students in the audience to have an eclectic experience here at the University," said Woodworth. It appears that this mission has been accomplished; the maneating plant in "Little Shop of Horrors" is quite different from the man-killing woman featured in "Machinal." "Directors have to be passionate about their script in order to get the UP board to vote for their show," said This passion Haynes. inevitably carries over into their vision and commitment to their show. "Machinal" also offers a lot of possibilities in scenic design. "It will be challenging because there are nine scenes to' create, but the show is expressionistic, so it definitely doesn't need to be taken literally," said Haynes, overseer of costume and scenic design. "Machinal" runs Nov. 2, 3, 4, and 9, 10, 11 at 8:00 p.m. with an additional Saturday matinee Nov. 11 at 2:00 p.m. in Sloan Theatre. The Pulitzer-prize winning "How I Learned to Drive" by Paula Vogel closes this dramatic season. Seven years of driving lessons from Li'l Bit's Uncle Peck turn disastrous when Uncle Peck sexually abuses his niece. Similar to "Stop Kiss," many comedic moments help offset the heartbreaking realities presented in this show. "When 1 first picked up 'How I Learned To Drive' I was hooked," said director Jenny Casalenuovo. "1 want the audience to feel uncomfortable and question what is going on in the play like 1 did the first few times I read it. It really makes you think about both people involved in sexual abuse, and question who is right and who is wrong." "How I Learned to Drive" runs Nov. 15, 16, 17, and 18 at 8:00 p.m. in the Countdown very hilariously with other characters, proves to the couple just how beyond therapy they truly are. "Beyond Therapy" runs Feb. 28 and March 1, 2, 3 at 8:00 p.m. in the Countdown Theatre. "Foolin' Around with Infinity," by Steven Dietz and directed by senior Ray Sturdevant, departs from the comical when two military men go through one routine night of work in a missile silo, which turns out to be not so normal after all. "Foolin' Around with Infinity" runs March 28, 29, 30, and 31 at 8:00 p.m. in the Countdown Theatre. The year's season ends with the main stage production of Moliere's "Tartuffe," which is one of the French dramatist's most popular comedies. When Orgon and his family get tricked by a con-man, they must escape from this religious phony before they lose all of their money. Directed by Haynes, this production of "Tartuffe" is set in the 1970s and has an unexpected twist. Student Dennis Berfield will be designing the set for "Tartuffe," which means he will be in charge ofresearching, sketching, and designing the model for the set months before anything is even built. "I'm always excited to have a student designer," said Haynes. "Designing a set is great because it's almost like playing God; you get to create a world for people to live in." Although it takes a lot of man hours to create a world almost 20 a week until the Theatre. opening of a show - Haynes is For the first time, the UP convinced it is worth it.
