Lady Gaga Arts & Entertainment Sports nlfe peases ~ ■ II I I II ' ;^H Feud continues between townspeople, students Lyndsey Hewitt Photo Editor lhewitt2@lhup.edu Recently Lock Haven students have been in the local news more so than usual. A few separate incidents involving LHU students alcohol have and occurred, one being at Evergreen Commons and the other being at the "Wrestling House". Since those incidents have occurred, the Lock Haven police department has dealt with every person involved legally. After the bust at the Wrestling House, 21 of the 31 students that were cited at the party received fines for drinking under age. They also were sentenced to two days in prison in a move "designed to send a strong message." While the students are suffering the consequences of their actions, Inside: This Week many of the townspeople are in an uproar and seem to have the misconception that the majority of Lock Haven students are destructive and sloppy. After a letter to the editor was sent in to the Express by a local woman on September 29th stating that, T do not live in Lock Haven, but if I did I think I would be contacting the university every day and demanding these "students" be sent home until they grow up," some students became angry. Those students that have been busted in recent news will most certainly be thinking twice about what they did. After Rita Dershem stated that Evergreen Commons should be labeled a nuisance property and calls LHU students "kids", it caused a whole slew of related articles about the issue. One man even wrote News A1-A4, A8 Classifieds A5 Opinions A6-A7 Sports B1-B4 Features B5-B8 a letter in saying that many Lock Haven students use Lock Haven as a personal playground and "vomitorium" while we are here for our four short years. Many students agree that this is all exaggerated and the townspeople should not let a few incidents generalize a whole student body. When Rachel Degler, a tenant of Commons Evergreen was asked how she would feel if Evergreen Commons should be labeled a 'nuisance property' she looked exasperated. "Why would they label it that? A few kids got out of control. It was taken care of. It's normally quiet and it's a safe place," said Degler. Many college towns seem to have this problem of the division of the community and college students. They feel as though they are being targeted and unfairly thought of as unmannered and out of control. It is something that has gone on for years in the town of Lock Haven. Many are wondering how the students and the townspeople can come to some sort of understanding. In a time where the media suggests that drinking and partying are part of college life, it is hard for an unknowing and inexperienced college student to enter college and not expect there to be raging parties like they see in the movies to be near by. Songs like "I Love College" by Asher Roth have lyrics with a chorus line that say, "I love college. I love drinkin'. I love women. I love college," are billboard top songs. 100 Movies like "National Lampoons: Animal House", "Old School", and all of the "American Pie" movies, Advertise With US Ads Office 484-2753 lhueagleye@yahoo.com Subject: Ads - are all movies that much of the youth of today love to watch and those movies strongly suggest that college is largely partying. It also doesn't help that LHU is located a mere half hour away from Penn State University, which was dubbed the number 1 party school in the nation this year. Changing what is playing on the radio and what movies students are watching may be impossible, but there are ways to ease the tension between the community and college. Cops are expected to do their job, but many LHU students would like to see the townspeople be a little more understanding with the way things have changed. because of the current recession the United States is in. Expensive colleges' enrollments are decreasing and more affordable universities, such as LHU, are better becoming a option for prospective students. According to an article published in USA Today, new and prospective college students are abandoning their "dream schools" in favor of more affordable options. The article also stated that more than 65% of high schools reported an increase in the number of students planning to apply to a state school instead of a private university. These statistics allude to the fact that Lock Haven University will, in fact grow and continue to grow in future years. The university has grown significantly and incidents are more bound to happen.

It is a great way to prepare or get help for a class assignment. Many professors on campus encourage their students to seek help from the tutors that are available. There is also an alternative to visiting the physical writing center. The writing website, center http://www.lhup.edu/w ritingcenter/index.htm , offers students an opportunity to submit their writing by email, and receive feedback from the tutors. These submissions must be made at least three to four days in advance of the due date. It is preferred if students come to the writing center with a rough draft to receive the maximum amount of help. Students should give themselves plenty oftime to visit the writing center so that they have an ample amount of time to make any corrections to the paper before it is due to the instructor of a course. If a student is struggling to start a paper, tutors are also willing to sit down and talk about the prospects before beginning the actual writing process. "The writing center really helped," said sophomore Jena Meyer. "Not only did I get a better grade on my paper, but I realized what kinds ofmistakes I make all the time." At the writing cen- ter, the tutors are not just there to help a student get a better grade on one paper; they are there to help the students see what types of mistakes they make when writing. Their hope is students can improve future papers when they may not have a "writing center" for such assistance.

The most common form of phishing is by email. Phishing conartists claim to be from a reputable company and usually ask you to confirm your personal information. This information can then be used by the thieves to order goods and services or obtain credit. A phishing e-mail can look quite convincing so it's important that you become familiar and aware of this fraud. Phishing attempts may also try to impart a sense of urgency to get recipients to respond before thinking through the situation. Usually, a phishing e-mails contain a link to a phony Web site that looks just like the real thing. In fact, the phony web pages can look so similar to the actual web site, even experts will have a tough time distinguishing between the real and the fake web sites. Creating phony web sites are not the only methods of con artists. Phishers also use the phone to hunt for personal information. Some, posing as employers, call people who have listed themselves on job search web sites or claim to be an employer of a reputable company such as your bank, to collect personal information. The Public Safety staff at Lock Haven University cares about your safety. They have provided a few tips to help protect you from phishing scams.

Her self-esteem has dwindled. Worst of all, she has to deal with the side effects of HIV every day. Tami Haught has been HIV-positive for 16 years, and she is covered by a federally funded HIV/AIDS program that expires Wednesday. "I'm very concerned liftbecause my depends on the reauthorization of the Ryan White Act," she said. But given the reauthorization record of the act —formally known as the Ryan White Comprehensive AIDS Resources Act— Emergency Haught will likely still be covered if Congress OKs the bill. Officials have approved the legislation three times since enacting the bill in 1990. Former President George W. Bush signed the bill in 2006, continuing its goal to provide financial and medical assistance to 500,000 Americans living with HIV or AIDS. Without this financial assistance, such as patients Haught wouldn't be able to afford monthly medication costs of $1,719. She takes three different types of med- ication for HIV and 16 for side-effects every day. The average monthly cost for HIV- or AIDS-related medication ranges from $1,200 to $1,600 a month, Kris Davis, an advanced nurse practitioner at the UI Hospitals and Clinics' virology clinic, said. Nearly 2,000 Iowans are living with HIV or AIDS. The Ryan White Act includes four main parts: A, B, C and D. Iowa receives funding in Part B. which provides money for the AIDS state Drug Assistance Program, and Part C, which provides resources for direct-care clinics. Holly Hanson. Ryan White Part B program manager, said inadehas quate funding forced the assistance program under Part B to close to new enrollees. If the bill is reauthorized, enough funds may be generated to accept new applicants. Haught knows the frustration and pain of being denied lifesaving medication. In 2005, she was one of 14 people put on a waiting list. More than 100 people are waiting for assistance. "It's just unacceptable that here in America people don't have access to these medications," Haught said. The University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics has a Part C virology clinic, which provided medical services to 457 patients last year. The program helps uninsured patients who are HIV positive or have AIDS. Davis said the clinic receives roughly $575,000 a year for medical services. Nationwide, the Ryan White Act dispersed roughly $2 billion in funding over the past three years. In 2007, Iowa received nearly $4.5 million in assistance for medication, education, and support services. The Ryan White Act is a "payer of last resort" program. Funds need to be exhausted from all other coverage before resources patients become eligible for Ryan White funds. "Without medication, [patients] would get sick and end up in the hospital," Davis said. For now, Haught will continue traveling across Iowa to educate on HIV/AIDS. She and her son recently traveled to Washington. D.C., to talk about the Ryan White Act. She also travels to schools, colleges, and churches to help educate people about the deadly discover ease.

Campus crime for September Brian Shultz News Editor bshultz(« lhup.edu Thirty one crimes were reported for the month of September to Lock according Haven University Public Safety. These crimes ranged from alcohol related incidents to theft. The most common crime committed was larceny/theft. Seven counts of larceny/theft were reported. There were five counts of vandalism, two counts of disorderly conduct, two counts of burglary and one drug charge. Alcohol accounted for six of the charges From, Feud, Al The articles published in the Express by angered townspeople seem to talk in a sense that more college students would mean more trouble.

A6 Persp ectives A different perspective Sarah Cox Perspectives Editor lhup.edu In terms of religion, I am not an avid one of practice. I do believe in some form of higher being, but I am unsure of what that means to me. For me, it is not about the fact that you have an organized religion. It is about finding something that fits your lifestyle and fits who you are. I am a firm believer in out what finding works for you, and being able to have an open mind; especially when it comes to something that people are often so closed minded about. I have grown up in a family that is and Catholic, although I do not practice this religion, I have adapted to the fact that my family does. Now, my family is okay with the fact that I do not follow them. have They accepted the fact that I strongly believe in finding my own way of am expression. I thankful because in some families, others are not as lucky. My Grandmother and Grandfather were very involved in the church, and would attend services every Sunday and on holidays. Also, they did a lot for the church in terms of donations and service time. With their deaths, my family, in honor of them, started doing more for the church because we felt that this is what they would have wanted. I, too, help in these efforts. Though it may not seem right, I feel that even though I do not follow this path, I am closer to them because I am continuing the work as they would have wanted. This makes the experience much more rewarding for me. Though I am not a religious person, one prayer that has much impact on me is, "God grant me the serenity to accept the things I change, can not courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. Living one at a time. day Enjoying one moment at a time. Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace. "Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it. Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will. That I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him. Forever in the Amen," next. (Serenity Prayer). Honestly, I never heard this before at Lock arriving Haven. I was never exposed to these elements, thus, I never put them into my actions in life. Now, I turn to the Serenity Prayer when I am down, when I feel as if I cannot find certainty, when the road as I see cannot go any further. I often feel that when you are in college, you find a point when cannot you decide. Where you can see the options both roads offer you, and choosing is merely impossible. But with this saying in mind, I feel as if the right decision is made easi- er to see. I understand that there is a method to our lives, that we all follow a plan. Whether we want to admit it or not, we are all on the same path, just experiencing different obstacles as we continue. I do believe in a higher being, and with this we find an inner peace that cannot be found anywhere else. For me, this saying talks of acceptance, courage, and wisdom. These are three things we all ask for out of life. We ask for acceptance of the people we know and those we don't; we ask for courage, to face whatever our days hold. Whether it be trying or not, each morning we awake with the that understanding the day might bring sorrow, heartache, pain, etc. We all need courage to make it through life. Finally, we ask for wisdom, the knowledge of how this life works and how to make it through. All of these factors are interlocked, and without all three we lack a necessary link to survive what is being thrown at us. We need acceptance and courage to meet new people, and to bring ourselves to open up to those we do not know even to those we wish to never connect with. Additionally, we need the courage to learn and the wisdom to apply what is learned. There are times though, when even with an abundance of acceptance, courage, and wisdom, we simply cannot make it - through. There comes a time when we reach our limits. We reach a place were we are helpless, where no matter which path we decide, we cannot simply find our way. In this case, a higher authority is needed. When we reach our wits end, we must rely on another. So whenever you find yourself standing at one of many crossroads, think to yourself what will be gained from this experience and how you will ultimately be bettered by it. We cannot come to a crossroad and simply choose without thinking. a well Following thought-out process to make choices and decisions can help to ensure that the outcome is what we need and/or want. So whenever you find yourself standing at one of many crossroads, think to yourself what will be gained from this experience and how you will ultimately be bettered by it. We cannot come to a crossroad and simply choose without thinking. We can fall back on religion, which is a comreliable forting, source of advice for many people. For me, who doesn't practice organized religion, the Serenity Prayer has helped me make many decisions that I was struggling with. For me, following a well thought-out, dependable process to make choices and decisions can help to ensure that the outcome is what I need and/or want. It truly baffles me how things can completely turn around over the course of one year. Some of the changes are good, some are not so good. And I often found myself wondering if it is that has me changed, or if it is the people around me who have changed. I think back to where I was this time last year: six weeks into my freshman establishing year, friendships with people who I now consider my closest friends, and simply trying to make it through my classes. Now I find myself six weeks into my sophomore year, still hanging out with my closest friends, and still simply trying to make it through my classes. Looking at it that way, it doesn't seem like much has changed. But looking back on everything that has happened in the past year, I realize just how much is different. This time last year, I remember what my weekends were like: my two best friends and my roommate would all go home, and I spent an embarrassing amount of time sitting in my room watching the first six seasons of "Degrassi" on DVD. Finally, one of my friends who stuck around on the weekends realized that I had been spending many weekends on my own, and he invited me down to his dorm to watch movies one We Friday night. ended up going to dinner with a group of his friends that night, and before I knew it, I had a new group of friends. This group of people became a huge part of my life for the following five months. I spent almost every day hanging out with the same group of people until all hours of the watching night movies, playing video games that I barely knew anything about, and just having a good time. I became so close with this group that I could not imagine my life without them. I was also convinced that would they always be there. But people change. Things change. And within the matter of a week, everything that I had gained in those five months was gone. I've constantly heard the saying, "you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone," but I had never actually felt that way until that point. It took me a while to get over everything. After what had happened, I thought that everyone hated me. Slowly, each of my former friends came to me and told me that they didn't hold anything against me, and that they weren't mad at me. Over the past seven months or so, I have been trying to reconstruct the bridges that were broken in that one week. And over the past seven months, I have finally learned the meaning behind something I have heard all of my life: "you don't need people in your life who don't need you in theirs." ... s , Thumb/ Down .. ...

A7 HE EAGLE New guidelines to help combat spread of H IN 1 Lauren Clason Freelance Contributor Building U-WIRE Newsroom:570484-2334 Lock Haven University 17745 Office: 570-484Lock Haven, 2579 araen0eye@yahbo.coni Fax: 570-484-2644 f ieds tor nie Kes xnger Clas Advisor .

The guidelines are targeted specifically at college campuses and mostly call for maintaining hygiene and facilitating isolation when a person falls ill with the virus. The guidelines suggest universities relax absentee rules to make it easier for sick students to stay home and also to suspend classes in the event of a serious outbreak. "We released it now, in August, to allow schools to prepare for the flu season," said Candice Burns, spokeswoman for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. "They present action they can take now and strategies they can use if the flu is more severe than the spring and summer." University Provost and Executive Vice President Karen Hanson also suggested reviewing grading procedures to accommodate any illnesses. "You will also want to consider a range of alternatives (depending on the circumstances) for evaluating students' performance in the event of widespread absenteeism or a significant interruption," she said in an email to faculty. Although cases on ILFs campus have been limited, Hanson encouraged faculty and students in research and creative activity groups to develop "contingency plans" for absences caused by an outbreak. "The federal Centers for Disease Control and the Indiana State Department of Health now expect that the HlNl flu will be more widespread this fall and will have a significantly greater effect on normal activities during the upcoming regular flu season (and possibly earlier)," Hanson said in the e-mail. The guidelines suggest several ways to isolate the spread of an HlNl case, including instituting a "flu buddy scheme" in which an infected person limits interaction to only one other person. "The guidance put a menu of strategies to keep facilities open while reducing spread of flu to faculty and staff," Burns said. IU spokesman Larry Maclntyre has yet to read the guidelines, but said the University has a committee in place that monitors the situation daily. The University already handled two cases of HlNl in late May. "President McRobbie and especially our health staff and risk management staff have been carefully following guidance that is coming from our federal government and state health officials, and we're pretty confident that we've got a systern in place here in Bloomington to stay on top of this situation and quickly identify any HlNl cases that might arise," Maclntyre said. He also mentioned that all residence halls, staff and students have been careful given instructions on what to do if a case surfaces. Regular flu vaccines are available at the IU Health Center, and said the Maclntyre HlNl vaccine will be available as soon as it comes in. Burns said the virus spreads the quickest among people six months to 24 years old, which is why the CDC's Advisory on Committee Immunization Practices is recommending that people younger than 25 be one ofthe first groups to receive the vaccine when it becomes available in October. Other groups at risk include the elderly, pregnant women and people with children, especially children under six months of age because they are unable to vaccinations receive themselves. Maclntyre said that in the event of an outbreak, any decisions affecting the University, including suspending classes, would have to be carefully weighed. "These are judgment calls, and there is a lot of guidance now from HHS," Maclntyre said. "That committee will be monitoring the situation daily and will make a recommendation to President McRobbie any time there's a question."

In 2004, 186,439 Californians made calls for assistance related to domestic violence and 163 people in Calif, were killed by an intimate partner. In August, Gov. Schwarzenegger abdicated his responsibility to these people when he line-item vetoed 100 percent of state funding to domestic shelters and centers.

Six of the 94 centers that support survivors of domestic violence have been closed in just two months. Other centers and shelters are cutting servservices and closing remote that offices, meaning that domestic-violence survivors may have less access to essential services, and what services they can access will be limited. Many centers are only able to keep the most basic services those that provide ternporary safety - and have to cut those that most effectively empower survivors to leave their abusers. Programs that provide legal services, counseling and transitional funding have been cut in order to keep emergency services. In September, the state Senate had a chance to reinstate this funding after the state Assembly unanimously passed the bill. However, senators Republican blocked the bill to refund the programs. According to the Los Angeles Times, Senate Republicans blocked the bill that would reinstate domestic-violence-shelter funding because the state Democrats would- n't eliminate a state program that helps lowincome families prepare their tax returns for free. While the state taxreturn program may be distasteful to the Republican small-government ethos, it's difficult to believe that tax returns alone are enough to make Republican senators cut vital funding to the shelters and centers that provide life-changing, even life-saving resources to domestic violence survivors, Unsurprisingly, this political tragedy has more to do with money than morals. Intuit, the maker of TurboTax, a private tax-preparation software, has donated to the campaigns of 29 of 40 state senators and has lobbied for the dissolution of the state tax return program. Even if these campaign donations are not the Republican's motivating factor, they are still putting the lives of Californians on the line for the sake of a state tax program, When contacted for comment, Senate Minority Leader Dennis Holhngsworth could not be reached. He did comment to the Los Angeles Times that the issue was whether Democrats "abide(d) by agreements," and not necessarily any specific program. The Democrats had promised to consider cutting the tax program. Cutting domestic violence shelter funding is surely never popular, but it's also not the type of issue that has a majority of the population upset enough to say something. Where are the rallies? Where are the protests? Where are the swarms of volunteers uniting to make up for the state's neglect? Domestic violence is so pernicious in part because of people's unwillingness to talk about it. There are several shelters and centers in the Los Angeles area that accept the help of volunteers on a regular basis. the Hopefully, tremendous success of UCLA's Volunteer Day and the activist spirit of protests on campus will spill over to help the many people in Los Angeles affected by domestic violence.

Junior criminal justice major, Donnie Brady, who fights at the 172 lb. weight class, was very excited to come to efforts and he added one tackle for a loss. Barie had four solo tackles. Seven different players made five or more tackles for LHU. Cal quarterback Josh Portis went 17for-23 passing for 274 yards and four TDs to lead the Vulcans to victory.

"I started boxing when I was 14," said Brady. "It was great to find a school with the program." Brady competed in amateur fights at his hometown gym and plans to possibly continue boxing after college. "I love this sport," he said. The team has a designated area to practice in Zimmerly, with a home-made boxing ring for sparring and a practice room on the other side of the men's locker room. "It's the perfect size for our group," said Coach Cox, "the school has always been supportive of the program." The boxing program had been at LHU until 1940, and was dropped around the time of WWII.

Anderson became aware of the potential complications of sickle cell about 10 years ago when one of his players was suffering from back spasms during the first day of football conditioning. Anderson and the doctors who treated the player assumed the heat had August caused the pain, but the doctors also made note that the athlete had sickle cell trait. Anderson changed his opinion after Dr. Randy Eichner joined the Oklahoma staff and told him the player had been experiencing exertional sickling the process of blood cells changing shape from physical activity and lack of oxygen. This possibility was something that had occurred not to Anderson, and, he knew it had not occurred to most college trainers across the country. From that point, Anderson began screening all athletes who came to the of University Oklahoma. But at that time, Anderson recalls, early in this decade, the NCAA did : not even mandate a pre-participation physical examination. "So how are they going to require or even recommend a component of something that 'doesn't even exist?" Anderson said. Anderson and his staff had these revelations about eight or nine years ago. Since Devaughn then, Aaron Darling, Ereck O'Neal, Plancher, Dale Lloyd II and seven other healthy-looking young men have laid down in front of their teammates and friends, dying. Scott Anderson wants more experimentation done on sickle cell trait and its role in these deaths. But he refuses to wait for definitive test results. "There certainly is more research to be done," Anderson said. "But in the meantime, there's a body count that's growing." "A lot not known" Sophie Dr. Lanzkron, director of the Sickle Cell Center for Adults at Johns Hopkins University, said it is conceivable that sickle cell trait carriers could be at risk for a catastrophic event during physical exertion. But it has not yet been proven. Lanzkron said that to even study sickle cells is tricky. The cells take their abnormal when shape deprived of oxygen. When doctor a attempts to perform a biopsy on those blood cells, they will begin to sickle the moment 15, 2009 are removed from the body and lose oxygen. The same would be true of sickle cells in the body of someone who has taken his last breath. Because of this, Lanzkron said some coroners may have diagnosed a sicklerelated death because they observed blood cells which actually changed shape after the athlete had died. "Really, honestly it hasn't even been studied enough to know whether it's true," Lanzkron said. "There's a lot not known." "A potentially stigmatizing fact" Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Bobby Engram, 36, has sickle cell trait and is three games into his 14th NFL season. Engram caught six passes in a Super Bowl and in the early 90s rewrote the Penn State University record books, including a four-touchdown performance against Minnesota. Engram says he has experienced cramping a few times during practices and games, but he does not know whether his sickle cell trait caused it. He said he would support testing college athletes, so long as the results did not lead to discrimination. "My only concern is that, whenever they gather the information, that it's used in a positive way," Engram said. "I just don't want it to affect any young kid coming into college and having a chance to go get a scholarship."

Haywood is black. And Haywood has sickle cell disease. Haywood said the issue of screening athletes for sickle cell trait is full ofcomplexities. He is concerned about the protection of athletes' privacy. "That is a potentially stigmatizing fact about them," Haywood said. "How are they going to protect that information?" He is concerned about the possibility of athletes finding out that they are carriers of trait, but not being told what exactly that means. Haywood is also worried trait testing would be done only on black athletes. "Ethically, if you're going to do screening I— Missouri players say mate Aaron O'Neal. for sickle cell trait, you should screen all your athletes," Haywood said. "Against the natural grain of coaching" The high-profile deaths blamed on sickle cell trait have brought about drastic change in the of University Minnesota's policy. Physician David Olson works with basketball players, but treats all kinds of athletes at Bierman Field Athletic Building. Olson said in the past he observed athletes struggling with cramps in practice and counseled them to get testing. But in recent years, all incoming athletes have had the risks of sickle cell explained to them, and then been asked whether they know or want to know their status. If an athlete states that he or she knows his status, Olson said a physician will ask them to find documentation to it. prove Scott Similarly, Anderson said incoming Oklahoma football players fill out a form that asks for their medical history, whether the including sickle cell athlete has trait. the "Invariably answer to that is 'No,' issue and have been responsive to physicians' warnings and athletes' complaints. Indeed, simply having knowledge of an athlete's status has not prevented tragedy. Ereck Plancher was known by Central Florida trainers and coaches to have the trait, and Devaughn Darling only found out that he was a carrier through the school physical. Olson said one aspect which may explain why football players are stricken with sickling more often is their outsized body types. But Aaron O'Neal and Devaughn Darling, both linebackers, were tall and lean. Ereck Plancher and Dale Lloyd II, both wide receivers, were downright small by football standards. Former of University Toledo coach Tom Amstutz coached tailback William Bratton for four years and knew that Bratton was a carrier from the time he recruited him. Amstutz allowed Bratton to skip drills and sometimes entire practices.

Piper's story is one of a man with great determination and a dream. His dream was to make the possibility of flying available to anyone who wanted to experience it. His goal was to make a small and inexpensive plane that could be purchased by families. He was a man who was well-liked and respected by everyone he happened to meet. My tour guide. Russ Nelson, told the story of Mr. I'iper's legacy with passion and emotion. It was apparent that he has a deep respect and genuine affection for the man. As we went through exhibits, the he recounted the tale of a man who started out with a humble beginning and went on to achieve great things. Mr. Piper's story starts in a one-room school in his hometown of Knapp Creek, New York. After his early education, he went on to attend Harvard. After graduation, he chased his dream of airplane building. In 1929, with the idea of family flying in his head, he joined forces with the Taylor Brothers Aircraft Corporation. The company was based out of Rochester, New York. With the Taylor's knowledge of aircraft building and Piper's financial backing, they began making planes. The company suffered a devastating fire in which the entire factory was destroyed. Not to be discouraged, Mr. Piper began looking for an alternate location. He received letters from many towns seeking to have the company moved there. He finally settled on a location Lock in Haven. The decision was based on the fact that he could build a much larger factory and the location was ideal. He was credited with starting the first full airplane assembly line. One interesting fact was that he hired women to work alongside the men. This was before WWII, when many women worked in such jobs as the men were away with the war. Mr Nelson said, "A young lady may hav,e come into the company looking for a job. She would be all dressed up in her skirt and heels, hoping to get a job as a secretary. Mr. Piper would offer employment as a welder. Although he paid the women a small wage, many ladies would take him up on his offer because he included flying lessons as part of their pay." By 1938, the company began production of the now famous J-3 "Piper Cub". It was a small, fairly inexpensive, and easy-to-fly plane. It quickly became popular. At the onset of WWII, the plane caught the attention of the Army. They contracted with Mr. Piper to purchase 1500 planes for use in the military. The planes WL a mm. i ifltili aMBHHWy Vickie Frantz /Eagle Eye Airplanes like these are on display for all to view in the museum. Vickie Frantz /Eagle Eye The Piper Aviation Museum is located at 1 Piper Way in downtown Lock Haven. were used for flight training, artillery spot- ting, reconnaissance, and even medical evacuation. After the war, Mr. Piper and his two sons were able to turn the company into the world's leading aircraft producer in terms of aircraft build. He was able to sell his planes all over the world. Some even called him the "Henry Ford of Aviation". Mr Piper, passed away in 1970 in Lock Haven. His family, friends, and employees wanted to share the story of their friend. To honor him, they began the Piper Aviation Museum in 1994. It stands today in the 56.000 square foot building that was the engineering building of the Piper Corporation. It is run by a small paid staff and many volunteers. Both groups are very knowledgeable of the company's history, as well as a general understanding of American Aviation. They are always in need of more volunteers. The museum is open for visitors Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.. Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and Sunday from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. They charge a small admittance fee. The fee is $6 for adults, $5 for senior citizens, and $3 for children age 7-15; children six and under are free. There is also a discounted rate of $12 for families. Aviation Piper's Museum counts on income from the admission fees, sales of gift shop items, and private donations to help defray the costs. The largest source of funding however, comes from the rental of vacant space in the building. They see approximately 2,500 visitors annually. People come to hear the history and see the planes that are on display in the airhangar. port Currently, there are eight planes on display, as well as one being restored. Many visitors are able to try their hand at flying with the help of their flight simulator. There is a small additional fee for this exhibit. They also maintain an archive room to house many old books on aviation, company records, and photos of the early planes. Many people find the area useful to do research on the subject of early aviation. Their records go back as far as the 1930's. I found the museum a fun place to visit; I stayed for an hour or so. If you get the chance to visit, there are a lot of things to see. The museum is constantly changing and new adding exhibits to keep visitors interested and to encourage them to visit again. The Piper Aviation Museum is a wonderful tribute to William T. Piper. He is one of the true innovators in the history of the town of Lock Haven.

Spain is also known for its delicious wine, Mediterranean foods: olive oil, legumes, cereals (rice pasta and bread); fruits, vegetables and nuts; cheese, honey, milk and fish, and of course, the Paella. Paella is a traditional dish of Spain. According to the people at StudySpanish.com, "Its home is Valencia, a city along the coast east of Madrid, but variations exist in the different Spanish provinces. A colorful mixture of saffron-flavored rice and various meats, paella's name comes from the paellera, the flat, round pan in which it is cooked. "Traditionally, the paella is cooked out of doors, over a wood fire. To make a paella, first saute meats, such as chicken, pork, rabbit, or seafood, such as clams, shrimps, mussels, crayfish, or squid. Use olive oil and season with onions, garlic and herbs.

"The Other" by David Guterson, but that's for school, so it's like a cop out. Q. But are you enjoying it? A. I LOVE IT! It reminds me a bit of myself and others I've known through- out my life. It also has a lot of adventures in the wilderness; climbing, which I can't do, but which I could. Q. So, if it weren't for class, what would you like to be digging into? ( A. "Naked Lunch" by Charles Bukowski. I heard an interview ,,n M'R « ih' the author [before he died] and his friend Jack Kerouac told him to write a book with the title "Naked Lunch". I found it really interesting. It's about his addiction to heroin. Also had some teachers complain about how choppy [throwing in chopping motion here, honest] the writing is, so I'm interested to see how it works. at the Roxy: Q. You have a favorite book? A.

Yes, "Armageddon in Retrospect" by Vonnegut. I've liked his more recent stuff because it's more of a depiction of him and his own thoughts as he's nearing death. Q. So, why do you want to teach? A. My theory teacher won't like this, but I want to teach because I think kids are dumbing down because adults aren't expecting much of them. I think they would get a lot more respect if they presented themselves in a more educated way. When I started reading books, my vocabulary strengthened and my ability to speak increased and I feel people take me more seriously now. I'm going to be the bitch teacher that everyone hates, but they'll look back in twenty years and understand what I was going for. Plus, I get to yell at them and there's nothing they can do about it.
