Athletes against drugs

MBB visits students for Red Ribbon Week Bubby Johnson guest writer

Talking to students at Castle Height’s Elementary include MBB Coach Vando, Mike Stroud, Trev Maughn, Almir Hadzisehovic, Ruth Whiteside, Luke Savoy, Igor Diaz, Vitor Machado and Coach Carter Roe.

It has been said “It takes a village to raise a child.” With this message, USU Eastern student athletes participated in an assembly to raise awareness against using drugs for Red Ribbon Week, at Castle Heights Elementary School in Price.

The adage could be explained as the parents are not the only factors in the upbringing of a child. Many figures such as teachers, mentors and peers play a role. Men’s Basketball Assistant Coach Carter Roe said, “The visit was a great job by the athletes, very successful. The kids really look up to the guys.” The team was introduced in a cafeteria filled with elementary school children that gathered to hear the negative effects of drugs. Luke Savoy of Sugar Land Texas stated “When we first walked on stage, the kids made us feel

4,000 student s in 4 year s Reaching 4,000 students in four years is in the BAG for Joe Peterson, Utah State University Eastern’s chancellor. At least that is what he hopes to achieve with the enrollment management program he outlined to faculty and staff in an all-campus meeting Oct. 18.

What is the BAG: it is the Big Audacious Goal of increasing student enrollment that Peterson and administrators hope to

achieve by fall semester 2017.

“My challenge is that each of you own the challenge to increase USU Eastern’s enrollment. We have to devote creativity to achieve it,” he explained using the analogy of a pyramid. The culture of USU Eastern represents the pyramid with all its experiences on the bottom. These experiences lead to beliefs, actions and results.

It costs $15,000 to educate

like celebrities. You could tell we were the highlight of their day.” Each member of the men’s basketball and women’s volleyball teams introduced themself, and gave their spiel on the harm of drugs.

Almir Hadzisehovic said, “Smiling of the kids made me feel good. I have never done anything like this in Serbia, it made me proud.” It is safe to say that the players got just as much out of it as the students did. Igor Dias from Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil added “Their [the kid’s] energy was awesome; they responded well and interacted well with us.”

The students were asked to participate in some back and forth with the players to keep the kids attention that showed to be responsive. When the children were asked “what should be your response when asked to do something that you know is wrong?,” A powerful “NOOO” filled the cafeteria and even echoed into the halls. see Athletes page 3

Old McDonald gets a new paint job Seth Richards

news editor s.richards@eaglemail.ceu.edu The painting of the McDonald Career Center was the first step in making the USU Eastern campus less a relic of the seventies.

Originally painted orange, the pink color of the Career Center was the product of weathering over a number of years. The painting was done by O’Shea’s Painting for roughly $18,000 over three days.

“The campus was designed in the seventies and then they just stopped,” said Emily Williams, student association (ESA) activities vice president. Williams suggested that the beautification of the campus is in an effort to establish more of a school identity as well as for recruitment.

The painting of campus was dreamed up in a meeting of the ESA leadership. According to Student Life Director Fernando Alcantar, this is the first step in making the campus feel more

like a backyard or place where people want to spend their time out of class.

Student body president Matt Gochis states, “we did it because we want to give CEU a makeover to USU Eastern. Changing to school colors is a great visual aide in changing the culture around campus.”

The painting of the Career Center, library, and Reeves buildings is the first of a multistep plan designed to facilitate a sense of see McDonald page 3

staff writer n.manley@eaglemail.ceu.edu When you unravel the roots of Halloween, you will not find candy-fiending children dressed as their favorite superhero and Disney Princess or people carving out pumpkins and bobbing for apples.

Instead, you’ll find a rich mash-up of Celtic, Roman and American history dating back 2,000 years.

Different events from all three cultures play a significant role in linking many to their favorite ways of celebrating present-day Halloween.

Pinpointing the exact origin of Halloween is still up for debate, but the ancient Celtic Festival Samhain(pronounced saw-win) is considered the birth of the ghoulish holiday. According to the History Channel, the festival landed on Nov. 1, and celebrated the end of summer and beginning of the

death, they believed that on the night of Samhain, the boundary for the undead was gone, allowing ghosts to come back to Earth. To commemorate the event they wore masks and costumes and gathered around sacrificial fires.

Further down the veins of history, the Celtic Territory was conquered by the Roman Empire.

It was during the new empiric rule holidays and celebrations were forged and Samhain was combined with two Roman traditions. One of these, a day commemorating the passing of the dead, the other was a day to honor Pomona, the goddess whose symbol is the apple. This incorporation is what sparked the tradition of bobbing for apples.

The name Halloween started as a dedicatory day honoring Christian martyrs and saints, called All-Hallowmas, meaning All-Saints’ Day. The celebration started on the night of Samhain, and see Paganistic page 6

Standing up for America James Patrick Green guest writer j.green@eaglemail.ceu.ede

“I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible with liberty and justice for all.” We all live in the best country in the world. A place built on hard work, standing up for equality, freedom, and guns.

There seems to be a change in the wind that is taking place with a few people not considering it “socially acceptable.” The pledge of Allegiance is one thing most of us remember repeating every day from preschool through high school, and we were happy to take those few seconds every day to remind ourselves where we are from.

I noticed though, when I hit high school, the grades below me began to have a problem with it. Students

began to refuse to stand and say the pledge of allegiance; most of them were immigrant kids and kids with an attitude trying to make a statement. Now this is nothing against immigrants because there are a lot who are not like this, but accepting of the culture in this country and standing up to the plate when push comes to shove. My ancestors are immigrants, so I’m not speaking out against immigrants, but against this demeaning and selfish train of thinking.

It was a Friday, I remember, and it seemed normal to me. I was walking into my Spanish 1 class just as the bell rang and we all stood for the pledge of allegiance. I sat in the front row, so I didn’t know what was going on behind me. We all got through about three quarters of the pledge of allegiance when my teacher, Mr. Gomez (names have been changed), stopped us.

I looked back just as I saw Mr. Gomez make his way to a Hispanic

kid, named Alberto, who was still sitting in his chair. Mr. Gomez asked him why he was sitting during the pledge of allegiance. The boy began to explain how he was Mexican and from Mexico, for that reason alone he would not stand to support America.

That seemed to light a fire under my Spanish teacher’s butt, also who was not from the United States originally, but embraced it graciously. Finally, the teacher made Alberto stand and recite the pledge of allegiance once more. One question that came to me was, “Why?” Why not stand up and support the country you live in that gives you the right to speak against whatever you want. Without our freedoms, Alberto probably would have been taking off to somewhere unknown if he was living in another country.

What happened to the time when the majority of people gave selfless service to stand up for what’s right. Why do we not have

the same spirit that once existed among the majority that engulfed the youth so long ago to join the military at a young age to fight for this country? Now just to make it clear, I’m not saying everyone needs to go join the military because that would be quite hypocritical, but that spirit and sense of pride is more than lacking in today’s citizens.

Take yourself back to a few years ago, Sept. 11 2001, ask yourself, how did our country react? Whether you’re a conspiracy theorist or against the war in the Middle East, it does not matter, but look how our country pulled together and went after something.

Despite everything you may hate or disagree with that situation, American people had a fire reignited once again within themselves. We all had a sense of pride that shouted the words of Toby Keith, “you’ll be sorry that you messed with the U.S. of A. ‘Cos we’ll put a boot in your a--, it’s the American way.”

Upon discussing this subject with a “colleague,” he went on the defensive saying, “Well your ancestors were not originally from here, so how can you consider yourself “American” and your ancestors brought their culture over as well to the U.S.” To him I responded in the affirmative, but my ancestors never refused to stand and take on the name “American” because they were born in another country.

When they came over America became their homeland, it became No. 1 on the list of allegiances.

They stood up for what was right, and placed their hands over their hearts to pledge their allegiance and lives to the country that GAVE them a chance for a better future.

I know there are a few of you out there that will take this completely the wrong way, so I must address this. No I’m not saying those of us who were born here in the U.S. are far superior to the rest of the world see America page 3

Humans vs. Zombies Whasssuppp?!

CJ Evans

viewpoints editor c.evans@eaglemail.ceu.edu

At USU Eastern an event is happening which some of you are undoubtedly participating in. Called Humans vs. Zombies, the idea is that one person starts as the walking undead while everyone else is human. As time goes on, the hordes of the undead swell and grow until they outnumber the living and its just a matter of time until humanity is reduced to a shambling, moaning husk with the carnal need to find something that fits between its rotting teeth.

Thankfully you only find this in folklore, crazed rants on the Internet and, naturally, college campuses. That means that none of this could really happen, right?

Load up your shotgun, grab that handy knapsack of non perishables and grab your suit of body armor because here’s four ways that it could happen, according to science.

4-Brain Parasites Parasites that turn their victims into mindless, zombie-like slaves are fairly common in nature, but there is one in particular, a toxoplasmosa gondii. This bug infects rats, but thanks to its unique physiology, it breeds inside the intestines of a cat. The parasite knows that it needs to get the rat inside the cat so in order to do this, it takes over the rats brain and intentionally makes it scurry towards the cat. The rat is being programmed to get itself eaten, and it doesn’t even know. There are a few of these brain parasites that follow this sort of logic, one that gets inside fish and makes them swim right along the surface, making them easy prey for any birds flying overhead.

How this can result in zombies: studies show that half the human population is infected with toxoplasmosa and don’t know it? Want to know if you’re one of them? Flip a coin to find out, yep, chances are 50-50.

All it takes is an evolved form of toxoplasmosa, one that could do to us what it already does to the rats, and human beings have no instinct for self preservation or rational thought, even less than we do now that is. And if you’re trying to comfort yourself in the thought that it could take decades for such a bug to evolve, you’re forgetting about the biological labs throughout the world dedicated to weaponizing such bugs.

3-Neurotoxins Certain poisons slow bodily functions to the

point that you can be legally considered dead, even to a doctor. The poison from the Japanese blowfish can do this. Once someone reaches this state, they can be brought back under the effects of a drug, like datura stramonium, that would leave them in a trancelike state with no memory, but would still be able to perform simple tasks like eating, sleeping, moaning and shambling with their arms outstretched.

How it can result in zombies: all we need to do is change that “can” to “does” and you understand what we’re looking at. This happens all the time in Haiti; that’s where the word zombie comes from. There’s even the documented case of Clairvius Narcisse who was declared dead in 1962 by two doctors before he was buried. Eighteen years later, he was found walking around the village thanks to the local voodoo priest who had been using naturally occurring chemicals to zombify people and put them to work on the sugar plantations. But, even if some evil genius intentionally distributed alkaloid toxins to a population to turn them into a shambling, mindless horde, there is no way to make these zombies aggressive or cannibalistic.

2-The Real Rage Virus If you ever watched the movie 28 Days Later, it is about a virus that turned people into mindless-killing machines. In life, we have a series of brain disorders that do the same thing. Thankfully, none of these were ever contagious so the threat was rather isolated, that is until mad cow disease came along. What mad cow does is attack the cow’s spinal cord and brain, turning it into a stumbling, mindless attack cow.

When humans eat the meat, it becomes something entirely different. Here are symptoms to freak you out; changes in gait (walking), hallucinations, lack of coordination (stumbling and falling),muscle twitching, myoclonic jerks or seizures, rapidly developing dementia or delirium. Sure it’s rare and the affected aren’t known to chase people in a murderous mob, but it proves that widespread brain infections of the rage variety are just a matter of waiting for the right disease to come along.

If you think the sudden, mindless violence concept is a bit far fetched, remember you are one brain chemical (serotonin) away from turning into a mindless killing machine. All it would take is a disease that destroys the brain’s ability to absorb that one chemical and suddenly it’s a real-world 28 Days Later. All it takes is a disease, like mad cow, that’s managed to evolve to the point that it spreads through blood-onblood contact. Or even saliva-on-blood contact and now we have a rage-type virus that can be transmitted with a bite. see Humans page 3

Thumbs Up To the cabinet’s reaction to the flash mob. While being fooled into thinking an important meeting was taking place in the advisory room, something soon took over in the air turning students into zombies. The zombies moved the cabinet into the halls and performed the memorable Michael Jackson “Thriller” routine to the amazement of the cabinet. They were more than cooperative with the students and even Chancellor Peterson took to the zombie movements. Keep your eyes open, not even important meetings can save you from flash mobs.

Thumbs Up To the trade tech programs.

USU Eastern’s programs offered are some of the top-tier trade tech programs in the nation. Many students from the programs have the opportunity to continue work at major businesses. The success of the program is ranked in the top percent in the country. For all the success over the last decade, our trade tech program put USU Eastern on the map. Two thumbs up to the departments and the hard work past and present.

Thumbs Down

To t he obnox ious we e d s a n d lack of colorful plants around campus combined with untrimmed trees. Many buildings are over run with dead flowers, weeds and overgrown trees. Many buildings are decorated with colorful dead shrubs or weeds instead of beautiful roses, tulips or daffodils.

Trimming trees has become as ancient as the typewriter; trees on campus have not been touched since they were planted. Although the trees look great for Halloween, as far as a college campus they are subpar.

Thumbs Down To upper level transitioning into bachelor’s degree programs. The frustration coming from students who complete their associate’s degree and look to further their education at USU Eastern. This has become harder than obtaining their associates. The lack of communication, cooperation and effort from the Logan campus with the counselors at USU Eastern has left many heading for the canyon to looking for another college. Enrollment is down from year’s past, while retention is becoming more difficult with students looking to continue for a higher education at USU

Battle of the sexes Emily Williams

To all you guys and gals out there who have ever been baffled by the opposite-sex, this article is for you. One moment they are totally into you, and the next it is like you never existed. How do you explain this phenomenon? For many, it simply cannot be done; women will always be a mystery to men and vice-versa. Our opinions/feelings can change at the drop of a hat for no obvious reason. The secret to decoding this mystery is to understand that we all have our own personal list of deal breakers. This article compiles a list of some turn-offs and pet peeves that a large percent of the general population at Eastern share. So students review this list and use it wisely. Swallow your pride and curb those off-putting behaviors, and you might just land a second date.

lifestyles editor e.williams@eaglemail.ceu.edu

Men’s Top Ten Turn-offs/Pet Peeves 10. Facebook: It’s ironic that Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest are all considered “social networking,” when the very definition of these words do not have anything to do with computers and everything to do with in-person face-to-face relationships. And then women wonder why they never get asked out on a date. How about you get off the computer and get to know a real person? What a novel idea.

9. Sports: I should say a lack of sports, or sports knowledge. When are women going to understand or accept the fact that guys like sports?

These days men are expected to know or appreciate things women are interested in, is it too much to ask you to do the same? We want you to take a little interest in sports so we can share common ground. We don’t expect you to sit through every sporting event with us, but at the very least just “know” what sport it is we’re talking about with you.

8. Feminism: Okay, I know I’m on thin ice already, but there is nothing un-sexier than feminist women. I’m all for equality, but true equality, with no double standard. It seems like women only want equality when it benefits them. They want equal opportunities, equal pay, but they also want chivalry and “old-fashioned morals.” I want chivalry from them. Ask me out, and then pay for the date. Why can’t you open my door, come over to my apartment and kill a spider or move my furniture.? How about changing my oil or tire? If you expect these things from me, I want the same things. I want true equality.

7. Dirty Apartment: There is nothing worse, than walking into a woman’s apartment, and getting punched in the face with the stench of dishes piled a mile high in the sink. How can you forget about scene in the bedroom? Clothes stacked from floor to ceiling with a pathway to the bed where there are more clothes, not to mention the closet where a bomb obviously went off. Obviously there is no other logical reason for why it looks like that. Do not get me started on the bathroom.

6. Short Hair: I have yet to meet a heterosexual male who said, “I prefer short hair on a woman,” so why do they cutoff their pretty locks? I’ve had long hair and it is not that difficult to deal with on a daily basis, and I guarantee a lot of women will never deal with bed head like I do, so no excuse. If I wanted to be with someone with short hair, I would date a dude or Tinkerbell.

5. Eating my food: I offer to buy food, or a drink or whatever, but they decline. So, why, without fail, do they always eat my food when they just said I am not hungry. This is not a matter of me sharing or you “just wanting to nibble,” it’s a matter of them deciding they want my food, AFTER we are home. It is obviously some female conspiracy.

4. Cell Phone: It can be so irritating when you are with a woman, possibly a date, and all they do is text the entire time. If you would rather spend time with your phone, or if I am really that boring, please just tell me.

3. Makeup: How many women have you seen, whose skin color on her face is a different shade from the skin on her neck? How about when she cakes on so much eye shadow, she starts to resemble the Ultimate Warrior? Go Google him. This goes for every woman out there, you are already beautiful. I cannot stand it when a woman covers up her natural beauty with foundation, blush, mascara and eyeliner. Guys aren’t as observant as girls are, but we will notice you without that gunk. Please stop hiding your pretty faces, unless you look like Eleanor Roosevelt.

2. Picking: Everybody gets zits and blackheads on their face once you go through puberty. What’s interesting is many of us restrain from picking at those blemishes until they bleed and than pick at the scabs. This is not appealing at all. The only get out of jail card is if you are a “meth-head,” and those bugs crawling under your skin are just out of your control.

1. Crying: We get it women, we understand you’re more prone to crying than we are. Particularly during those blessed days leading up to and during your “lady times.” We’ll give you that much, because of those hormones flowing through your body uncontrollably. But, there are situations when no man would ever cry. We just don’t do it and we don’t know how to deal with it when you do, so we can’t sympathize with you. The logical solution here is simply stop crying all the time.

Women’s Top Ten Turn-offs/Pet Peeves 1. The outrageous compliment. This is the first mistake that guys make. Yes, females like to be flattered, but enough is enough. If a guy starts texting a female sonnets about how the color of her eyes make his heart soar, that is a major turn off. Over complimenting makes a guy sound insincere, and like he only notices a woman’s physical attributes. A female can only be called beautiful so many times before it loses its meaning. Ladies will appreciate it much more if a guy gets to know her and then gives specific compliments that really count.

2. The facebook creep. We all do it; facebook stalking is a natural part of the dating process for this generation. A huge turn off is to click on some guys profile and see a smorgasbord of pictures of a guy with a million other girls. If a guy has a lot of pictures with ex-girlfriends or just a lot of random girls, it definitely gives the wrong impression. It is best if your profile describes you as person, not as a player.

3. Fishing for compliments. You know what I am talking about. When your date keeps bashing on himself expecting you to rebut his negative comments with compliments. It is just like pulling the “I’m so fat” card that females so often use to get their friends to tell them that they aren’t fat. Women hate it when women do it, and they definitely hate it when guys do it.

Ladies are attracted to confident guys, and bashing on oneself to get compliments does not show confidence, in fact, it instantly emasculates a man.

4. Poor hygiene. This one may seem like a no brainer, but some guys just have no brains to figure it out. Females can tell when you do not shower. We can tell if you have been wearing the same shirt for a week, we notice when you are not wearing socks, and we can definitely tell if you have not brushed your teeth. It is also important to groom facial hair; no girl likes a neck beard. Also, avoid, at all costs, having long, gross fingernails. If a guy is a mechanic or welder and works hard with his hands, a little grime under short fingernails is attractive, but when fingernails are long and unkempt, a guy instantly loses at least three attractiveness points.

5. The pretty boy. On the same subject as turn off number four, personal hygiene can be taken too far. A female doesn’t want a guy who spends more time in front of a mirror than she does. There is a fine line between looking nice and looking effeminate. Fake baking or spray tans, shaving arms and legs, photo by Whitney Withers/The Eagle tweezing eyebrows, and bleaching hair can all make a guy seem like too much of a pretty boy. Women can recognize that there are certain reasons for some of these things, maybe there is a unibrow, or a skin condition, or the guy is a hairy mammoth man. If there are extenuating circumstances, it’s just important to do these things with subtlety. Ladies, don’t want to notice what you’ve done to make yourself attractive, and they definitely want to see some of that gruff masculinity preserved in your appearance.

6. The tickle attack. Tickling can be considered major flirting, but it can also be a major turn off. Some guys think that tickling is the perfect way to break the ice. It isn’t. Tickling is only okay once the female feels comfortable enough for a guy to touch her. Having a guy’s fingers up your armpits is not a turn on.

Not to mention the inevitable awkward boob graze that tickling leads to. When a woman laughs while she is tickled, it is because she cannot help it, not necessarily because she is having a good time. Tickling at the wrong time in a relationship can make a female feel attacked because she can’t fight back when she wants it to stop. Basically, the rule of thumb is when a woman says stop, seriously, stop.

7. The big shot. Ladies like an athletic looking man. I haven’t met a woman yet who would complain if their guy had a six-pack. However, the second that a guy starts bragging about the amount of time he spends at the gym, all his hard work goes from a turn on, to a turn off. No one wants to hear about how much you work out, or how many pounds you can curl or press or whatever. It is okay to like the way you look, but bragging about how much you work-out just makes you sound like a big shot who is begging for attention.

8. The mother hater. It is something that must be built into the DNA of all women. When a guy insults his mother, that is a deal breaker. It is so important for a guy to respect his mother. Of course, momma’s boys are not attractive either. A delicate balance must be attained. A man should be independent, yet grateful for everything his mother has done for him. Somehow the female mind makes the correlation between a disrespectful and ungrateful son, and a disrespectful and ungrateful boyfriend.

9. The unplanned date. Nearly every female has experienced the frustration of going on a completely unplanned date. Ladies understand that guys aren’t solely responsible for all courtship interactions, but if a guy asks a gal on a date, the least he can do is make a plan. The awkward silences on a first date are magnified to the hundredth degree when there is no activity that provides conversation. Especially on a first date, it is a mistake to think that everything will work out if the two of you “just chill.” If you care at all about impressing a female, put forth some effort to make your date impressive.

10. Are you on your period? This question is a capitol offense to every female on the face of the planet. Guys, this is a dangerous question under any circumstance. No good can ever come out of this question. If they are having their time of the month, they will be upset because a women’s emotions are still valid, even when they are on their period.

If they are not on their period, you are pretty much calling them a moody, crazy person by accusing them of being on it. A woman’s menstruation is personal information that should not become an issue in any discussion or argument.

Guys, watch yourself, because once you mess up on this one, there isn’t much you can do to reconcile the situation.

1- Neurogenesis Remember that whole stemcell research controversy? How everyone always points out how with enough research you would be able to re-grow dead cells or even organs? There’s a special branch that focuses on the re-growth of brain tissue called neurogenesis.

Thanks to science, you can pretty much be saved from anything except brain death; they can swap out your organs, give you new legs, but when your brain turns to mush you’re gone, right? Not for

long. They’re already able to regrow the brains of comatose head trauma patients until they can wake up and walk around again. Couple that with the new ability to keep a dead body in a state of suspended animation so that it can be brought back to life later, and soon we’ll be able to bring back the dead.

There’s nothing that could go wrong with that right? These labs dedicated to “reanimation research” explains how the process of reanimating (yes, that is what they call it) a person creates a problem.

Turns out that the process results in the brain dying from the outside in, the outside being the cortex, the nice part of you that makes humans human.

That just leaves the part that controls basic motor function and primitive instincts behind. Once someone is at this point your nothing more than a mindless body shambling around, no thoughts and no personality, nothing but a cloud of base instincts and impulses. And that ladies and gentlemen, is what we call a real, undead zombie.

Namon Bills displays his conceptual drawings “Spatial Relations” at USU Eastern’s Gallery East during November.

Gallery East features conceptual drawings by artist Namon Bills titled “Spatial Relations” An exhibit of drawings titled “Spatial Relations” by Orem, Utah artist Namon Bills will be displayed at Utah State Eastern’s Gallery East from Nov. 12 through Dec. 13.

According to Galley Director Noel Carmack, “Bills is a rising young Utah artist who is gaining a favorable reputation along the Wasatch Front for his conceptual paintings and drawings.” His large-scale paintings, based on the Hegelian ideas of

synthesis, have received considerable attention in the Salt Lake art scene. “These drawings are representative of some of the collage compositions he is known for.”

“This series of drawings (mostly graphite, but with various drawing media mixed in) was an exploration of form, taking my typical collage media and imagery into new spaces, replacing the collage material entirely in favor of drawing media,” Bills explains. “This is the first series of draw-

ings I’ve done since I was an undergrad, and the return to this medium was both challenging and rewarding.”

The drawings incorporate several visual elements that have characterized his paintings. “As in all my work, I seek to join the disparate elements (media, imagery, positive and negative space) into a unified whole. The subject matter — Egyptian sculpture, geometry and birds — is a collection of items that interest me on a formal

and conceptual level. I don’t prescribe any specific interpretation to these works, but encourage viewers to make their own connections,” Bills said.

Originally from Spanish Fork, he studied painting at Brigham Young University, where he graduated with a BFA and transferred to Utah State University where he earned a MFA in painting. Since then, he’s been actively creating art, exhibiting and curating. He also works as a graphic

designer.

An opening reception and artist talk will be held Friday, Nov. 16, from 7-9 p.m. in Gallery East. The gallery is free and open to the public during the academic year.

Gallery East’s fall 2012 hours are: Monday through Thursday 11 a.m. – 5 p.m., closed Fridays, weekends, and holidays.

Eastern Utah Wind Symphony Statewide Service Project Greg Benson, Ph.D. guest writer greg.benson@usu.edu

Music by women composers will be the highlight of the Eastern Utah Wind Symphony concert, a college-community concert band at Utah State University-College of Eastern Utah, on Saturday, Nov. 10 at 7:30 p.m. in the Price Civic Auditorium. Also appearing will be a special guest ensemble, the Carbon Junior Honor Band, featuring outstanding students from Helper and Mont Harmon junior high schools.

Opening the concert will be Fanfare Aureus, a powerful work that Southern Illinois UniversityEdwardsville professor Kimberly Archer composed for her alma mater, Florida State University.

Next will be Julie Giroux’s The Bonsai Tree, a gentle piece featuring expressive melodies and prominent mallet percussion.

The centerpiece of the concert will be a new composition, West Wind Overture, also by Julie Giroux. The Eastern Utah Wind Symphony is one of 16 bands from nine states that commissioned Giroux to compose West

Wind Overture last spring, with premiere performances occurring across the country in the coming months. Julie Giroux is an Emmy Award winner with many notable television and film music credits.

She began writing music for concert band in 1983 and now devotes much of her time to composing for

The concert will continue with Paper Cut, a modern work by Seattle-based composer Alex Shapiro. Three distinct elements—prerecorded sounds, sheets of paper, and traditional instruments—create interesting audio and visual combinations in this piece.

It is now the present. An assassin in white kills a king and war is inevitable. The rest of the book follows four important people of different backgrounds. One is the assassin; the second is a woman with ulterior motives. The other two are a surgeon, turned soldier and a general who might be going mad. They all travel different paths, but all play an important role in the world of Roshar.

Each of them is trapped in roles they do not want, but most fulfill nonetheless. The assassin, Szeth, must obey his master without question. He also has strange powers that were thought to be only from legend. Shallan, who yearns to be a scholar, must find a way to save her family’s lands.

Exciting events are happening in the SUN Center throughout November. SUN Center President, Shanna Frame, decided to lead the college campuses in Utah in a statewide food drive competition. These campuses include: Utah State University Eastern, Utah State University Logan, Dixie State, Salt Lake Community College, Westminster, University of Utah, Weber State, Southern Utah University, and Utah Valley University.

This project has been in the making since Frame attended the Utah Leadership Academy, at Utah State University last summer. This conference allowed her to do the networking and receive the support needed to accomplish a service project of this size. “It’s been a lot of hard work, but it is all coming together,” says Frame.

Frame decided to do this project because she wanted to create something that united the state of Utah in a tremendous act of service. She wanted the service to be needed and to benefit all areas of Utah.

This required some creative thinking, but once she settled on a statewide food drive, matters began to fall into place. Frame is aware that this project could potentially help Eastern’s enrollment. She hopes that this project can not only help the Utah community, but also raise Utah’s awareness and positive view of USU Eastern as well.

The competition will be held from Oct. 29 through Nov. 30. Each school participating will raise as many pounds of food in that period of time as they can, however they can. Every dollar raised will go towards half a pound of food. The money and food raised will all go to each of the schools’ local food banks.

The totals will be taken as a percentage (pounds of food, divided by full-time students enrolled in the

institution, all multiplied by 100). Even the smallest school has an equal chance of winning.

The winning school will get to host a familyfriendly benefit concert within the months of February or March, months known for having a lack of food donation. This concert will be admission by donation, and proceeds will go towards the school’s local food bank as well.

There are several ways for USU Eastern students to get involved and help Eastern win the food drive competition. The largest event is Bread ‘n’ Soup Night.

Students and community can help in the competition by volunteering or eating at Bread ‘n’ Soup Night, held Nov. 5, 12 and 19. Trick or Treat for Food, was Oct. 31 from 5:30 till 8 p.m. Students dressed in costumes and had fun going trick or treating, and asking for cans and nonperishable foods instead of candy. Students and members of the community can also donate whenever they’d like by bringing their cans of food to the SUN Center.

Other upcoming SUN Center events include: Green Team, every Friday from 10-11 a.m.; Kids @ Heart, every Tuesday and Thursday, 11:30 a.m-12:45 p.m.; Habitat for Humanity, every Thursday, 5:30-7 p.m.; Bread ‘n’ Soup Nov. 5, 12, and 19 from 5:30-7p.m.

Those who need service hours can bake something for the Breakaway bake sale that will be held during each Bread ‘n’ Soup night. The statewide food drive competition is Oct. 29-Nov. 30; for more information on upcoming events and to sign-up, visit the SUN Center on the second floor of the Jennifer Levitt Student Center or call 435-613-5284. SUN Center advisor, Terry Johnson said, “We most likely have a project that interests you, so we look forward to receiving a call and seeing you in the SUN Center soon.”

king, questions the purpose of the war being raged.

Szeth’s life is in the hands of his master. His master says go and kill, and he goes and kills. He must obey. He is trained in martial arts and with the sword. He can draw power from strange gems that hold Stormlight. This Stormlight is what the ancient protectors of Roshar could control. Szeth uses this Stormlight to become inhumanly strong and quick. He is the perfect killing machine. He also has a Shardblade, a coveted weapon that can cut through anything.

It kills people by severing their souls from their bodies. Having a Shardblade is like being a whole army by yourself.

Shallan needs to steal a tool of magic from the woman she desires to become apprenticed to.

With this tool, she can secure her family’s finances for good. Her master is cunning and hard. It will be a dangerous task, but it must be done.

Kaladin, who is a skilled surgeon turned deadly warrior, was betrayed. He is now a slave for the nation

he once fought for. He has given up on life. He must find himself again if he is to save the people around him. Can he do it alone?

Dalinar is a highprince who now serves under his nephew, the new king of the nation of Alethkar. He is known as Blackthorn, a feared and respected warrior.

He is now seeing visions of long ago. Rumors have started and most believe him to be mad. He wonders if the visions are real or if he really is mad.

They all must find out who they are and if they believe in the paths they chose and if they can do anything about the direction they are now going. The Way of Kings is full of wit and strategy, but not so complex that the reader will become lost. Brandon Sanderson has created a whole new world waiting to be explored.

The Way of Kings is just aching to be read, analyzed and added upon. It is a world where nearly everyone seeks to hold onto the way things are. A few see the need to change. Will their voices be heard and heeded or scoffed at? If the world does not see that anything is wrong, they will not change easily. Many would rather die than give up what they have. In a world where one nation reveres warriors and another honors farming, something must be done. Chaos or order must reign, but which one?

In the Arenal region there is an active volcano, La Fortuna Waterfall, a kayaking trip along Lake Arenal and an optional half day of whitewater rafting. Last is the Guanacaste region, with a free beach day and a full-day excursion to Rincon de la Vieja National Park with bubbling sulphurous mud-pits and an active “mini-volcano.”

The trip’s cost is $2,124 (age 29 or under) or $2,364 for over age 30.

The trip is not limited to USU Eastern students or employees and is open others looking for a travel opportunity. This adventure de-

parts on May 27 and returns June 4. Airfare, accommodations, most meals and attractions are included.

Another travel opportunity in 2014 is a trip to New Zealand and Australia. This trip includes three days in Auckland and Rotorua, New Zealand, three days in Sydney and three days in Cairns, Australia. Contact Betty Hassell for more detailed information on this trip. Because of the flights involved in this trip, the cost will be approximately $5,000. Hassel wanted to get the word out now so those interested could get started saving for this adventure.

Two humans, Cameron West and Brett Cook, fighting for their lives while three zombies, Carolyn Thornton, Ben Bjarnson and Whitney Whithers, attack them.

Zombie apocalypse takes over USU Eastern campus Ashley Stilson

staff writer s.writer@eaglemail.ceu.edu Students armed with Nerf guns and socks patrolled the campus all week, protecting themselves from an ever-growing horde of zombies. But don’t worry, it’s not really the apocalypse.

Alex Pierson, a surviving human, said, “My favorite moment in the game is the thrill of trying to avoid a herd of zombies on the way to class.” Chuck You Xu remarked, “My favorite part [of the game] was when I got to shoot zombies.”

Humans vs. Zombies is a worldwide “antidote for the ailments of a generation” says the International Herald Tribune. The game was invented by Goucher College, Maryland in 2005 and spread to over 650 colleges and universities, summer camps, military bases, high schools and public libraries, according to

the official Humans versus Zombies website.

“This is the first game of Humans vs. Zombies for USU Eastern,” said game organizer/moderator Brett Cook. “The turnout was great. [There were] a lot more than I expected to participate.”

Austin Giles said, “I enjoyed being a human because of the suspense and the challenges I had to face with being a survivor.” Ben Bjarnson commented, “I’m just in it for the fun of it. It’s fun to be a zombie because it’s fun to hunt humans. They’re slightly pathetic.”

Over 47 students and faculty participated in the Humans vs. Zombies competition. The game began with everyone creating an account on the official website for the Humans vs. Zombies game. The accounts make it possible to keep track of who is a zombie and who is a human.

Angelica Gomez commented, “I had a fun adrenaline experience! Every time I stepped outside

my apartment or was in one of my classes, I had to always check my back and peek around the corners.

It was super fun. I loved acting like a kid!”

Brighton Ketts stated, “I’d rather be a human.

It’s more fun to sneak around campus and feel like a champ because you haven’t been caught yet.”

Everyone begins as a human and only one player is the original zombie. The original zombie tags as many people as possible to start creating the zombie horde. Jordan Moynier was the original zombie for the USU Eastern game. He said his favorite part was “being the original zombie and hanging around humans while they had no clue.”

The zombies must tag at least one person every two days to keep from starving. The game can be won if all the humans are turned into zombies or all the zombies starve. Humans can stun zombies for 15 minutes by hitting them with socks or Nerf darts.

Cameron West said he’d rather be a human because

“you need to be constantly aware of what’s going on.

You’re always anticipating and on an intense mode.”

Players are forbidden to shoot or tag non-players and there are certain “safe zones”throughtout campus, mainly buildings on campus such as the residential halls or the educational buildings.

One of the inventors of the game, Chris Weed, stated on the official website, “Humans vs. Zombies represents a way of holding onto our need to have fun for no other reason than to have fun.”

It is free to register for the game on the official website hvzsource.com provided by Gnarwal Studios, a company made by the creators of Humans vs. Zombies. The game can be adjusted to each campus and can last up to a few hours or all semester.

“We will be having smaller weekly games starting in November,” said Cook. “And we will be having another campus-wide game after Christmas break.”

Caine College of the Arts at USU Eastern presents a holiday production “A Christmas Story”

It’s nice to be home, states Kris Bushman, an alumna who is directing the holiday production of “A Christmas Story” for the Caine College of the Arts at USU Eastern.

A graduate of Payson High School, Bushman, attended the College of Eastern Utah from 1991-93 on a fulltuition acting scholarship. Instructor’s Lee Johnson, Grady McEvoy and Don Adams ran the theatre department when she was a student. While here, her first stage credits included “Damn Yankees” and “I Remember Momma” in the Geary Theatre.

“Because students in the acting program at CEU learn how to do everything, I learned how to manage the technical side of all shows and thus began my love for the other side of theatre: stage management and directing. Now you cannot pay me enough to act, I prefer the management part of the acting world,” she said. “I actually feel uncomfortable on stage, my heart is in the technical side.”

“I stage managed eight or nine shows here [CEU] and after graduation, continued acting at USU in Logan where I

Paganistic

received an acting scholarship. Upon the recommendation of Grady to the USU theatre faculty, I immediately started stage managing all of USU’s productions…about 40 or 50 shows. For more experience, I managed dance, opera, ballet, ballroom dance and children’s theatre productions,” she continued.

After graduating in theatre, Bushman was accepted into USU’s master’s of fine arts program and got her first paid technical directing job at the Ellen Eccles’ Theatre in Logan. She now works full-time at USU, including working summers as production/ manager at the Old Lyric Theatre. She also teaches stage management on the Logan campus.

“I don’t have traditional hobbies, my hobby is theatre which makes my parents proud because I get paid to do what I love, have benefits and a retirement.

What else can they ask for from me?”

On commenting about majoring in theatre as being useless, Bushman’s passion erupted. “Majoring in theatre helps in any career path students choose.

It gives people confidence on stage, plus it gives basic skills in household

was called All-Hallows Eve, and eventually renamed Halloween.

The practice of carving jack-o-lanterns started from an Irish myth of a wiley man named Stingy Jack. With his wiles he tricked the devil into never allowing claim on his soul. When Jack died, he being an unworthy character of dwelling with God and was sent down to the devils’ realm.

Keeping his word to never claim his soul, the devil sent Jack into the cold, dark night with only a coal inside a carved out turnip to wander the Earth. The Irish called him Jackof-the-Lantern and later, Jack-o-Lantern.

Peasants sta r ted carving their turnips and placing coals and candles inside. Immigrants from Ireland brought the tradition to America, but started using pumpkins, a native fruit, to carve their jack-o-lanterns.

maintenance like plumbing, electrical and remodeling. It also helps in public speaking and confidence building.

It teaches children to stand up for themselves.”

She said that she cannot train students fast enough to be stage managers.

If I quit my job tomorrow, I would have 10 job offers.

Bushman was stage manager of USU Eastern’s production of “I’ll Be Home Before Midnight.” When I got to campus, “I brought my photo album from when I was a student here to show everyone what the campus used to look like. Back then, we told everyone we were from the ‘Grady Bunch’ in honor of Grady.”

In discussing her producing “A Christmas Story,” she gave the USU Eastern theatre staff a list of 20 shows that she thought would work in the Geary Theatre. The department chose the Christmas Story because it is the most fun, traditional holiday production. It is widely performed along the Wasatch Front and has a restricted script (cannot be produced within 90 miles of another production). She was

elated when she heard USU Eastern was producing it because “I wanted to do this show for a long time. I hope to bring the holiday spirit to the campus and community.”

The play takes place in the 1940s, and centers around nine-year-old Ralphie who is trying to convince his parents, teachers and Santa that a Red Ryder B.B. gun with a compass in the stock really is the perfect gift.

“Put it together play by play” Kameron King sports writer k.king@eaglemail.ceu.edu

Every play and game is big in the SWAC. Each and every team needs to play to their best potential every game; any little confusion or mistakes can cause a team grief and stress for the whole season, due to such a tough conference.

All of the SWAC volleyball teams are battling for rankings in the last stretch of conference. All the games are big for every team. The USU Eastern women have a 11-14 record for the season and a 2-6 record in conference play as they enter the conference tournament this weekend.

The Eagles are currently ranked fifth in the conference, and as team they are ranked fifth in hitting percentage, assists, kills, blocks, and digs. They are ranked third in service aces. There are also individual players who are highly ranked among the women in this conference in each of those categories. In the kill category Whitney Fieldsted is ranked sixth, followed by Kathy Collette at eighth. Paige Peterson is ranked seventh in assists with Lauren Karn at

10th. Jessica Wilcox is ranked third in service aces, and she is also ranked ninth in blocks with Amanda Freestone, who is ranked 12th. Malorie White is ranked second in digs. The team hopes that they can use all of these many skills and bring them together for one final weekend.

The women have had some great games and some poor games in Coach Chelsey Warburton’s eyes. They have had many close, tough battles, which is frustrating for a coach when the victory goes to the other team.

Their final four-game stretch came on Oct. 19 the Bruins from Salt Lake Community College came to Price to play the Eagles on the BDAC floor. These two teams always fight to the end. But this time the Bruins came out and had few mistakes, taking the game three sets to zero: winning set one 25-18, set two 25-16, and set three 25-23.

The Eagles put up a good fight, but could not come out on top of the Bruins.

Warburton said, “ I was pleased with how well my women came out and battled, our passing and team work was working great for us. It’s always hard to match up to bigger team’s and schools, but our women have huge hearts and battle to the end every game no matter the situation.”

On Oct. 20, the Eagles played Snow College at the BDAC, looking to upset and surprise the lady Badgers.

Sets and scores were going back and forth all night. Each team having great plays, and hard work. The Badgers put everything together and topped the Eagles in four sets, Winning the first two sets, losing the third, and bouncing back with a win in the fourth set: set one 25-16, set two

a tough Salt Lake Community College squad. On Saturday, Oct. 19 the USU Eastern Golden Eagle baseball team traveled to Salt Lake and had a showcase event before playing their final two games of fall ball. The event had over thirty scouts from a number of different colleges in attendance. The two games combined consisted of 16 straight innings, with no breaks.

The Eagles played very well defensively throughout the two games; as errors did not come very often. Leading the charge on the mound for the Golden Eagles was Chance Abrath, Jake Meservey, and Kameron King.

each other on the field. They are developing relationships off the field as well, which helps build the teams moral.”

The team batted extremely well overall in fall ball. The Eagles had a batting average of over .300, which is a good achievement as a team. The main thing that the team will need to work on as far as hitting is concerned, is being smarter hitters late in games. The pitching staff needs to be more consistent as well, in order for them to be where they want to begin the season. The team has yet to have final cuts, as they will take place in a few weeks.

Overall, Head Coach Scott

and requested a workout and afterward, offered him a spot on the USU Eastern baseball team.

Smurthwaite was impressed with Luke at the showcase. “He was out-playing kids that were top recruits.

I could tell that he had a limitless amount of baseball talent but was trying to find it again.

I really liked how positive he was on the field and how he carried himself.

“We needed another shortstop and I really liked him, but so did other colleges. Everything just fell into place in his recruitment. It was a natural fit,” Smurthwaite said.

Recently, Luke was voted by the Eagles to be one of three team captains. “I don’t feel like a captain is any better than anyone else, I just view it as my team trusting me,” he said.

Head Baseball Coach, Scott Madsen (no relation to Luke Madsen) said that he agrees with the team’s decision of making Luke a captain. “He gets along well with all those he comes in contact with and is sincere with his desire to really help that individual. pho

Although his dream of playing baseball at the collegiate level for the 2012-13 season was nearly impossible, Luke Madsen has now been voted as team captain for the Utah State University Eastern Eagles.

Madsen returned from serving an LDS mission in Micronesia, Guam in May. He knew he wanted to play baseball. He went to the Cache Valley Showcase at Utah State University in Logan to see if a college team would pick him up.

Recruiting Coordinator, KC Smurthwaite, called Luke

were 4-3 and 4-1 both in SLCC’s favor.

According to assistant coach KC Smurthwaite, the Golden Eagles have improved in all phases of the game since the beginning of fall ball. He is impressed by the improvements of both the offense and the entire pitching staff. “Our pitching staff is really starting to hit their stride. Now that doesn’t mean we are where we want to be, we still have a long ways to go in terms of where we need to be by the first game. We will get to where we want to be soon enough. It just takes time,” stated Smurthwaite.

“The players seem to be getting more and more comfortable with

27-25, set three 25-18 for the Eagles, and set four 25-16 went for the Badgers.

The lady Eagles felt like they let each other down. The women said they knew they had the game but just could not put everything together. They had many good plays but needed more of them in order to top a tough competition like the Snow College lady Badgers.

After a tough week of practice the Eagles traveled to Idaho to play Northern Idaho College. The bus ride was a long, dreadful 18-hour ride which had the Eagles tired and worn out. On Oct. 25, the Eagles played NIC in Coeur d’ Alene, Idaho. After a good start for the Eagles, they thought they had this game, after winning the first set 2521. They could not keep it together and lost three straight sets, 25-22, 25-19 and 25-19.

The long bus ride and rough game left the Eagles down on themselves. They went to a hotel and had a good night’s rest and woke up on Oct. 27th, ready to face off against Southern Idaho. CSI is a nationally ranked team, and brought their game and showed it by winning three sets to zero: 25-18, 25-17 and 25-10.

Coach Warburton said “we played good all weekend, but just couldn’t bring it all together. Our passing was there for us all weekend, we just couldn’t put it together play by play.”

The Eagles have region play this weekend up at CSI, where they will face Snow in the first round. We wish them luck as they finish off their season and hope that they can bring everything together for the tournament.

Luke is a great individual that as the right attitude towards everything that he does in baseball and life.

“He is a great example for anyone that crosses his path.

On the field he works as hard as he expects everyone else to work. He has set a high standard for the other players on the field to follow, but will not expect others to do the work unless he can himself complete the work. He holds himself to such a great high standard. He is a great leader because of his work ethic that he shows every day.”

Luke looks forward to the spring season with a positive attitude. “I’m excited for the spring and feel like we have potential to win. Some encouraging stuff happened this fall. We definitely have potential and a lot of talent.”

Luke is also part of the Army National Guard, devoting one weekend a month to serving his country. “My whole family plays baseball.” One of Luke’s brothers played AA ball with the Chicago White Sox and another brother played at SLCC. After school Luke wants to play baseball for as long as possible and get a job working with teens and youth. “I want to help them through their trials,” he said.

Luke is grateful for the opportunity he has to be a part of Eagle baseball. “I want to thank Coach Madsen and all the coaches for giving me this opportunity to play the game I love. It truly is a dream come true.”

Madsen and Smurthwaite are pleased on how the team performed in fall ball. Smurthwaite added, “ Scott and I are extremely pleased on how we played. We are far from satisfied as a team. We still need to put in extra work to become the team we are supposed to be. I feel like we have all the pieces and now is the time they start to come together, which they are. These are key months as our practices start to move indoors and are limited. We are really exited for the season. This season is going to put us at new levels and traditions.

It is an exiting time to be a Golden Eagle.” Eagle baseball will start conference play in the spring.

On Oct. 9, 2012, former Penn State assistant coach Jerry Sandusky, was sentenced to a minimum of 30 years in prison and a maximum of 60 years.

The reports show that there were 52 counts of child molestation. Occurring between 1994 to 2009. A lot of these incidents came about from Sandusky’s youth football camps he held on the Penn State campus, for youth. Surprisingly this scandal went a lot deeper.

There were many people involved with this within the school administration.

One of the individuals involved was head coach, Joe Paterno, head coach of Penn State for 45 years. He had also worked at Penn State since 1950. He knew of the things that were going on with the scandal, but did not come out publicly with it. Instead he went to his supervisor the athletic director, who then went to his supervisor. This was done accordingly to the Pennsylvania law which stated that, “any misconduct must be admitted to the supervisor”. Many people still were not pleased with Paterno’s reaction.

They believed that he should have told the police and pressed charges, if nothing else was to do be done. Others involved with this were campus authorities, as well as those involved with the athletic program. In 2011, Paterno was fired. He passed away in January 2012, due to lung cancer.

After the story broke, a riot occurred near campus with about 4,000 nonstudents and students participating.

The riot got to the point that there were news vans being flipped over. These demonstrators were there to support Paterno. About $200,000 in damages were done according to CBS News.

This is a terrible thing that occurred at Penn State and resulted in major changes and charges put on the school. Local organizations called for Paterno’s statue in front of the stadium to be torn down. There was even plane that had a banner flying over the school saying something on the lines of “take it down, or we will”. The statue was taken down in July 2012.

According to Reuter’s.com, NCAA gave a huge fine to Penn State in the amount of $60 million. This fine was given to go toward, preventing child abuse. The scholarships also took a hit from this; there was a total of 40 initial scholarships between 2013 and 2017 that were taken away. The school was given a five-year probation and also given a four-year post-season probation. One of the things that really hit hard was the loss of all the wins that Penn State had from 1998 to 2012, which was a total of 112. This meant that they lost their Big Ten titles in 2005 and also 2008. For Paterno the head coach, that meant it took away 11 wins off his record which dropped him from being second on the NCAA’s all time win list to 12th.

The Big Ten also fined Penn State $13 million. This was aside from the $60 million the NCAA already took from them. This money that is usually attributed to the bowl revenue, will now be given to help victims of child sex abuse.

These are all harsh actions that were given to Penn State, but none could amount to the so called death penalty. This is the term used by the National Collegiate Athletic Association, which gives them power to ban a school from competing in a sport for at least a year. This is the most severe punishment that a school can receive.

There have only been five times that this has been ordered. The first time this punishment happened was issued to the University of Kentucky basketball program in the 1952 to 1953 season. The second to the University of Louisiana basketball team; third to the Southern Methodist University football program. Fourth, the Division II men’s soccer program at Morehouse College. The fifth and final to Division III men’s tennis program at MacMurray College. The reasons for these being given to the schools range from frauds in academics to bribes for shaving points off of games. There have also been multiple schools that have come pretty close to receiving the “death penalty”, but were not issued it by the NCAA. It’s pretty sad all this had to go down, but there had to be some punishment for the actions that were done at Penn State and also for all the others. Wish we could just say “Let the kids play”, but then again, these aren’t kids, and some things we can’t just let slide by.

Outdoor adventures at CC Recreation

My obsessive compulsive hobby Hayden Peterson

sports writer h.peterson@eaglemail.ceu.edu The Eagle spotlight this week is not on a student, coach or employee of USU Eastern. It is on the father of a baseball player who travels to almost every game and takes thousands of incredible photos of the team. Matt Meservey, is the father of Eastern’s athlete Jake Meservey, a pitcher for the baseball team. The elder Meservey met his wife in 1989, in the Idaho Falls area, shortly after graduating from high school.

However, he did not end up tying the knot until after they had both served LDS missions and he claims she finally tricked him into setting a date for their wedding and they were married. He said it was by far the best thing that has happened to him.

His wife Keri, an ex-dancer and beauty pageant queen, is the owner of her own

business and is the best color and extension stylist in the state. She has done hair for the Academy Awards, several movies and the Sun Dance Film Festival.

After high school, Meservey had the opportunity to choose between playing college baseball or college football, being heavily recruited in both sports. His decision was made a little easier when he realized how much he loved contact and since hitting people was frowned upon in baseball, he chose to play college football.

He played all four years at BYU, one year before his mission and three years afterward. His senior year he suffered two major concussions which he blames on being stupid and lying about headaches. He was told he could no longer play football due to the injuries, but the Buffalo Bills decided to take a chance on him and signed him after the 1995 draft. He played the 1996/97 season with the Bills.

After his first season playing ball he came back to Provo to finish college and was walking to class one night with young Jake on his shoulders after a big storm. He slipped on a patch of ice, which launched

him backward. He quickly made a headsup move, tossing Jake into the bushes so he wouldn’t get hurt, then fell and hit his head.

What happened next is just Meservey’s luck.

A police officer that was standing close by saw him fall and came running over to help.

As he got close, he also slipped on the ice, falling on top of Meservey, cracking one of Meservey’s ribs. This concussion is what eventually led Meservey to a non-contact hobby, which he has now turned into basically a full-time job, photography.

Meservey and his wife have four children, and all of their children are following in their footsteps, the two boys are both talented ball players and their two daughters are following after their mom and are dancing at the age of six and 10.

The Meserveys were excited when they found out that Eastern was pursuing Jake because they want him to have the opportunity to continue playing baseball and developing his talents. When they came down with Jake to visit Eastern Utah, their son James fell in love with Price and Eastern Utah and decided he wants to come here and enter the welding program.

Meservey took up the hobby of photography when 12-year-old Jake’s baseball team went to Cooperstown N.Y., for the Cooperstown Dreams Tournament. He decided this could be a once in a lifetime event and he wanted to have the memories.

His hobby quickly turned into an obsession as he was constantly finding new lenses or bodies that could improve his snapshots.

Meservey said, “when I pick a hobby, I sort of get obsessive compulsive about it, I tend to get immersed in it until I am good at it, or the Visa company calls me, whichever comes first.”

The primary lens used by Meservey is the Cannon EF 400mm F/2.8L. Meservey found his lens on KSL for under 2K from a man who used to shoot for Kansas State.

This lens normally retails upwards of 8K brand new, he said. He does most of his hobby shopping on KSL; it seems to work just as well and helps him save some green in his pockets as well. His photos can be found on his website which is, http://www. baseballsnapshots.com or you can also find most of them on his Facebook page under his name.

Two metal plates and screws put Quiles back together again In the blink of an eye Talon Bryan sports writer

dalberto Quiles turned around when out of nowhere there it was, a season-ending injury. He fielded a ground ball and threw it across the middle when everyone exclaimed, “Heads up,” as he turned, a hard-liner hit from the bat of Kameron King screamed across the field and struck him in the jaw. In a whirlwind of pain and blur, Quiles could feel the blood rushing from his gums and lip, plus the sharp pain in his jaw.

Luke Madsen asked, “are you okay?” Quiles quickly replied, “It’s broken.”

Rushing off the field holding his left hand below his mouth to catch the blood, Quiles rushed up the stairs to the top of the dugout. Assistant Coach Rob Smith loaded Quiles into the front seat of his vehicle and quickly drove him to the hospital. Struggling to speak English and dealing with the excruciating, pain it was tough to communicate with the doctors.

Eventually Quiles had his lip stitched together at the

hospital and had X-rays taken. His jaw had been broken in surgery to help tend to his son’s injuries. His father would two places and required two-metal plates and screws to put like to give a special thanks to all of students and staff that it back together. He also had knocked out a tooth in the back have helped Quiles through this time and is grateful for of his mouth. Not being able to have the surgery the same everyone who helped him and his son. night here in Price, Quiles had to head back to his campus apartment and stay the night still with his jaw broken.

The next day he had surgery at Castle View Hospital where doctors traveling from Provo, Utah inserted two plates into his jaw and wired his mouth shut to prevent re-injuring the break. His jaw is on track to have the wires taken off in six weeks if everything goes according to plan.

Even with all of this, Quiles still keeps a positive attitude towards everything. This shows what kind of heart and desire he has to get the back on the field with his brothers and play the game he loves. Quiles would also like to thank everyone for helping take care of him and all the support they have shown and an extra thank you to Jonathan Santiago and Kyle Durbin.
