Honoring Those Who Were Lost, But Not Forgotten By ELISSA SANCI

T

he University of New Haven honored all the lives lost and families affected by the tragic terrorist attacks on the United States on the fourteenth anniversary of Sept. 11, 2001. The ceremony, conducted by USGA President James Kielar, was held in the Maxcy academic quad on Friday, Sept. 11 at 11 a.m. The September 11 attacks, commonly referred to as 9/11, were a series of four terrorist attacks, coordinated by alQaeda, on the United States. The attacks targeted national landmarks—the World Trade Center in New York City and the Pentagon in Washington D.C.—and resulted in the death of 2,977 innocent civilians, firefighters, EMS first responders and police officers. Students, faculty, staff, esteemed guests and members of the UNH ROTC gathered in the quad as Isis Loyola sang the

––––––––––––––––––––––––– national anthem. All attendees were encouraged to sing along “to promote campus community and demote terrorism and all its empty promises,” said Kielar. Guest speakers included Marty O’Connor, associate professor and campus minister; Dan May, Provost and Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs; and representatives from the Veterans Club, the Fire Science Club, American Criminal Justice Association and the EMS Club. O’Connor recounted the story of how the UNH campus came together fourteen years ago on the night of the attack; he said that in the early evening of that fateful Tuesday, students, faculty and staff alike found their way to the residential quad between Bixler and Botwinik. They all “went [to the quad] not for answers, but for solace and to know that [they] were not alone.” He then said a quick prayer for all the lives lost and the

families affected, concluding with a few words on remembrance. “We come together to do the most noble thing a human being can do: we remember,” he said. “It’s hard to believe it was 14 years ago,” said May of the attacks. “It was a bookmark in the history of the nation—of the world.” Jessica Meisinger-MacDonald, the president of the Fire Science Club, said a few words about the 343 firefighters who died during rescue efforts. “It takes a special kind of person to run in when everyone else runs out.” “We are Americas and we are proud of what that stands for,” Caisey Calabro, ACJA president, added as she addressed the crowd. The ceremony concluded as attendees placed American flags around the 9/11 memorial tree located on the hill above the Bartels Student Activities Center. The Fire Sceince Club performed a last alarm to

honor the firefighters who were lost. The Last Alarm, which is performed through the ringing of a silver bell, is a fire service tradition to pay homage to

the “brothers and sisters who have been lost,” said Kielar. “It signified that their duties have been completed and that they are returning to base.”

U

niversity of New Haven alumnus Zani Imetovski is on his way to making the town of Seymour a better place. On Jul. 23, Imetovski was nominated for the position of First Selectman, an important and time consuming duty. According to the town charter “The First Selectman shall serve full time and shall be the chief executive and administrative officer of the town.” For those of us who don’t follow politics, it boils down to this being an essential role in town government. Imetovski will be running against his Republican opponent, Kurt Miller, who has served two terms as the First Selectman in Seymour already. Highly qualified would be an understatement to describe Imetovski though. At the age of 23, Imetovski may be underestimated for his young age in the world of government, but he has put in his fair share of work in politics. A 2014 UNH graduate, Imetovski earned his Bachelor’s degree in political science along with serving as the president of the Undergraduate Student Government Association. He also worked as a Campaign

––––––––––––––––––––– Coordinator and Treasurer for State Representative Theresa Conroy. In addition, Imetovski dealt with government affairs in America’s capital during his summer internship for the U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal. His most recent line of work has been as a Legislative Aide for the Connecticut General Assembly. Although appearing young, it is clear that Imetovski has put in the work to earn his unanimous nomination. Some of Imetovski’s plans for Seymour include expanding senior tax relief, working toward becoming a more ecofriendly town, and investing in Seymour’s education system. “I want to run because I want to re-engage the community in how we govern town affairs,” Imetovski stated. “All of our boards and commission have a lot of experience, but where we are lacking in in fresh, new ideas. I want to work to make Seymour a place where I can someday watch my grandchildren grow up here like I did, and where I could someday retire with comfort.” Student Activities Coordinator Colleen Kerrigan shares her thoughts on Imetovski’s nomination. “I think he would do a great job. I think he is very level

headed, he is very fair and he cares a lot about the people that he works with and I’ve heard him talk a lot about his home town and how he cares about those people so I think he would do a really great job.” Kerrigan and Imetovski have been involved in student government together in the past. Assistant Director of Student Activities, Shelissa Newball, has also worked alongside Imetovski in years prior. “I think because he is young people might see him as like

not experienced, but I think he has so much experience because he has been involved in his community and that area for such a long time that I don’t think people give him enough credit,” Newball said. “I think his age might be a hindrance, but I think once people see past that he will be an awesome candidate.”

some new people. Students favor going to the game room after a long day of classes to relax and unwind with friends. Many students, like freshman Nash Khairi, describe it as “a great place to distress.” After countless calculus problems and boring biology terms some students just need to beat their best friends in air hockey or be deemed the foosball champion. The game room provides students with an ideal friendly-competition atmosphere. That atmosphere is one reason so many students enjoy it, “it’s a great place to have fun with friends and enjoy the friendly competition,” said freshman Kiannette Acosta. The game room will now be open daily for students to enjoy.

Alpha Sigma Alpha joined the University of New Haven Greek community with recruitment happening nearly every weeknight at about 7:30 p.m. during the week of Sept. 14. Aubrey Winn, an ASA representative who is staying here to assist until November, spoke to the Charger Bulletin about some of the aspects of the newest sorority hoping to colonize at University of New Haven. Alpha Sigma Alpha has eight core values that it tries to strengthen in its potential and current members. These eight values are: balance, generosity, integrity, learning, relationship, growth, enjoyment, and responsibility. The national organization, which is one of the 26 affiliated with Panhellenic, focuses on develop-

ing women of character and their concern for the well-being of others. Potential new members may find themselves identifying with this sorority if you are a person who wants to become a leader, someone who wants to be brought out of their shell by a national network of support and who wishes to be or is substantially involved with their community. Alpha Sigma Alpha has four national philanthropies; The Special Olympics, Girls on the Run (an organization that supports young women), S. June Smith Center, ASA Foundation. There is also the concept of D.O.T Days which is when the members of the sisterhood donate their time and goods collected for the full first week of October. Many people often be-

lieve that joining a sorority comes with hurdles, like time management and leadership development, but ASA has developed a new member program to help guide its initiates over common hurdles and into a group of successful young women. ASA hopes that its members are enabled to reach out to others, inspired to grow in confidence, and develop the tools to become a stronger leader. The sorority wants to give its members a well-rounded experience with community service, by both giving time and donations, and the chances to make a difference in the moment. The new organization has no set colonization date for UNH but the group hopes to have established themselves on campus more by next semester.

Taylor Swift is Not Fit To Be A Role Model

Why Shaming Your Dog is Okay, But Shaming Your Kid Isn’t

Lately, “pet shaming” has taken the internet by storm, as pet owners post photos with captions that range in hilarity and tales of misbehavior, from “I tore up all the pillows on the new couch” to “I ate my owner’s chocolate liqueur and got wasted.” All are harmless, albeit some outlandish, ways to effectively waste time on the Internet. However, many parents of human children, as opposed to “furry children,” have recently decided to get in on the act and post photos of their children’s misdeeds, from not cleaning their rooms to talking back and being disrespectful. Recently, some parents have been following the trend of shaming their children on the Internet (probably the same ones who think that those minion memes that have infected Facebook and other platforms like some sort of social media disease) by taking photos and videos of themselves punishing their children in a multitude of ways for various transgressions that range from getting a poor grade on a test, to talking back to their parents, to pretending

to be an older version of themselves on Facebook in an effort to attract somebody older than them. While some of these misdemeanors are more deserving of some form of punishment than others, there is nothing that warrants this kind of emotional abuse. Because, yes, this is abuse. There are plenty of other less psychologically and physically traumatizing ways to punish your child without making an example of him or her by means of torture, and then posting said torture in order to humiliate them further. There are plenty of other ways for parents to get across their messages to their children that what they did was wrong without publicly abusing them, not to mention airing their family’s dirty laundry. What about the classic punishments, like taking things away and grounding them? Why must these parents opt instead to shave their children’s hair or shoot their video game consoles on and then post their child’s anguish for all of the world to see? And, whether we believe in it or not, many of us facilitate this mistreatment. Sharing and commenting on these posts do nothing but encourage the practice and the abusers. These parents (and I use that term loosely) should not be vilified, but rather condemned for their actions. Perhaps, somebody should make a video punishing them for mistreating their children, who are not fully grown adults and therefore are of course more likely to make such mistakes, unlike the people who are supposed to care for them and know better.

ence impeded because the person sitting next to them was smoking. Finally, this ban seems to have been put into place without considering additional effects. For example, if a professor formerly smoked during a break in the middle of a three hour class, will the quality of their lesson be impacted now that they cannot? In 2013, the Center for Disease Control reported 18.7% of adults between 18-24 years old is a smoker, meaning that while still a minority, this is a substantial amount of people to consider. This ban has the potential to not only affect the efficiency of the professors giving a lesson, but also the student’s ability to focus and retain information. Smoking is not simply a bad habit such as biting nails or grinding teeth, smoking is an addiction. UNH’s flagrant advertisement of a smoke free

campus is not nearly as much about promoting the health of its students as it is about bragging on their self-perceived victory over smoking. Even as I write this, I can see a “tobacco free campus” sign fixed to the door of the library. But just as clearly as I see the sticker on the window, the names and numbers for resources to quit this addiction are nowhere to be found. The bottom line is abundantly clear; this is not an effort to help student smokers or to beautify our campus, it’s a movement to further demonize tobacco use and keep it “out of sight (or campus), out of mind” rather than address the issue. I, along with the multitude of student smokers attending UNH, am extremely disappointed with this new policy and hope this is not the beginning of an intrusive and restrictive pattern of policy making in the years to come.

aylor Swift has swept the nation with her blonde hair, big blue eyes, fun loving, bubbly personality and sweet nature. In 2006, Swift released her first debut album, establishing her as a loveable country song artist. Years later, we have completely forgotten she even once sang country. Taylor Swift is a role model to girls all over the world—however, do people really want their children to look up to someone like Taylor Swift? Yes, Swift is the image of perfection as a long legged beauty, but she has also gone through some major changes. The country star is now gone; she has completely changed her music genre to fit the image everyone wanted her to be. In 2008, her music changed into a more pop feel and bigger names in the music industry were threatening Swifts innocent country vibe. Singer-songwriter Demi Lovato was powering to the top of the charts with her pop music, as was Katy Perry and Lady GaGa. Tswizzle would have gotten

lost in the crowd if she had stayed true to herself. She wanted more and country fans were not a big enough fan base for her and she needed to expand. People may argue that she is just another musician shedding her childhood image, but I say that if you’re an artist of a genre of music, then stick to it and be classy about it. Everyone knows Jennifer Lopez’s song “Jenny from the Block.” That song is showing her growth but also demonstrates that she is still who she once was. There is also Madonna, who is the Queen of Pop; her new album is more tech then pop, yet she didn’t change herself to produce the new her—she is still the same. Swift completely shed her country sweet girl image because it was not getting enough revenue. Taylor Swift is not only famous for her voice, but also for her dating record, which is not comprised

of very lengthy relationships. Swift dated musician Joe Jonas from July to October 2008, then dated actor Taylor Lautner from October 2008 to December 2009, not leaving much room for grieving. She was involved with musician John Mayer from late 2009 until early 2010. She dated actor Jake Gyllenhaal from October to December 2010. Swift dated political heir Conor Kennedy from July to September 2012, only to get involved with singer Harry Styles from October 2012 to January 2013. In March 2015, Swift started dating record-producer and DJ Calvin Harris. Anyone you don’t know from that list? Yeah I didn’t think so; many of her “lovers” are very well known famous people, which only heights her status. Another reason Swift is not fit as an icon is her childish immaturity. Most of her songs are about exes that have “done her wrong” or trying to find

the right boy. She says she is a feminist, yet most of her songs revolve around boys and break ups, nothing about empowering women, just whining about her past relationships. Her newest song “Bad Blood” is about the ongoing girl fight with ex-friend Katy Perry. “Bad Blood” is basically showing all of Swifts’ friends and publicizing how popular she is and that she will fight Perry if it comes down to it. This is showing that it is okay to bad mouth your old friends behind their back and hate them. Young girls should not look up to Taylor Swift because she is not fit to be an icon or a role model. She comes off as weak and not as someone willing to stand up for herself or what she believes in (do you remember the whole Kanye fiasco?). If I was a parent, I would rather my child look up to Miley Cyrus than to Taylor Swift.

purchase tobacco products and willingly use them at their leisure. Of the issues I have with this policy, the first is the complete ban of tobacco. While it seems reasonable to ban smoking due to the well documented “second hand” harms, to ban the use of chewing tobacco and other forms of “dip” is unreasonable. These products harm only one person; the one who wilfully chooses to use them. There are no “second hand” effects of chewing tobacco; rather, those who speak out against these products commonly site the presence of “dip bottles” and the scent of the product as the reason for their displeasure. Surely this is no different than the excessive application of intrusive colognes/perfumes or loudly listening to music through headphones; in no way harmful to those around the offending individual yet in no way banned, regulated, or oth-

erwise targeted for “health reasons.” One area of concern which should trouble every student is the slippery slope which we have now been forced down as a result of this new policy. The indiscriminate ban of tobacco because of its adverse effects can easily be twisted in an effort to remove many other things from our grounds because of their unhealthy potential. For example, the ability for of-age students to consume alcohol (which could lead to a DUI) or the ability to purchase fried foods for a meal (which could lead to heart complications). While these additional steps are obviously unlikely, the general principle is the same; these are things which are openly permitted despite their possible consequences and no one is attacking them on any level whatsoever. The next issue I have with this policy is the

complete lack of compromise. Rather than have a 100 percent prohibition of all tobacco products, why not ban smoking during traditional classroom hours? Better yet, it seems much more reasonable to ban tobacco use within 50 feet of all academic buildings. By simply requiring smokers to remove themselves from the general public when indulging (as most of them already do), non-smokers will know exactly which areas welcome smokers and can avoid accidentally going there. This is not to say non-smokers will need to go out of their way to protect their health, as the permitted smoking areas would be out of the way of usual foot traffic, placing the burden of inconvenience on the person wishing to smoke. It is important to remember that all smoking on UNH occurred outdoors in the first place; not once was a student’s learning experi-

Thoughts on Tobacco Free Campus

–––––––––––––––––––––

For the last few weeks of the spring semester and throughout the Summer I session, I couldn’t help but notice the excited announcements for a “tobacco free campus” coming June 1 to the University of New Haven. Being a recreational cigar smoker myself, such a movement had little effect on me; it wasn’t like I left class to have a cigar or needed cigar breaks at work. But as time progressed and I overheard more and more people discussing the issue, my opinion changed from passive to concerned. Simply put, a complete ban of all tobacco use anywhere on campus is not only unnecessary but extremely unfair to the student and faculty population who legally

Treasurer’s Tip Reminders

Chargers,

Do not fear challenges. Every moment of your life thus far has prepared you for this moment. You are stronger than you were yesterday and, whether you know it or not, you are better equipped to tackle the hardships life has in store for you. Do not worry about those hardships, however, because as experience has taught us in the past, you are capable of handling whatever life throws your way, regardless of the magnitude.

I hope everyone is now finally in the swing of things! I would just like to remind everyone that I am here to help and to keep in mind your deadlines! Sodexo orders, Contract Authorization forms, Credit Card sign outs, and purchase requisitions must be done two weeks in advance.

The human spirit is indomitable. The human condition, however, may encourage us to believe that our spirit can be beaten; that it can be stopped. The only thing capable of hindering the progression of your spirit is failure to believe that you are capable of pushing onward; capable of bettering yourself; and capable of inspiring others. Greet each obstacle with a smile and a thumbs-up and you will instill fear in that challenge, instead of vice versa. Sincerely, James Kielar USGA President

Spotify Playlist of the Week “(Not from) Concentrate”

S

ince school is starting to pick up speed, this week’s playlist is perfect for those of you who (unfortunately) need to start studying for your first exams. It’s pretty common knowledge that listening to classical music (and just instrumental music in general) improves one’s concentration, so this playlist is full of enough

that vary dynamically all the while sticking to a basic melodic theme, and this piece is no exception. Something interesting and refreshing about this piece, in particular, is that it never gets as huge as some of MONO’s other songs, or other Post-Rock songs in general. It always teases that it is going to build up and get loud and intense, but never really does. PostRock is a sort of formu-

It begins with just drums, electric piano, and electric guitar playing impossibly quiet while the bassist weaves these interesting melodies over the bed of music the accompanists created, ultimately building it back up to the climax of the song at full volume and throwing back in those pleasing horns. The piece is just incredible to listen to on its own, or to have in the background.

of that to get you into the right headspace. I tried incredibly hard to not just include classical pieces (because that’s what everyone thinks of when they think of “study music”), but instead bring a mix of that, post-rock, and some electronic music for a little bit of variety. Opening up the playlist is “Silent Flight, Sleeping Dawn” by the Japanese Post-Rock band MONO. They are essentially the epitome of Post-Rock. A large percentage of their work includes lengthy, evolving pieces

laic genre of music: start out quiet, repeat a simple melody, get loud; so this piece plays off of that formula, changing it up. A little bit further down the list, is a piece by the jazz/fusion ensemble Snarky Puppy. “Young Stuff” also features wonderful dynamic contrast, waxing and waning between mellow and marginally loud. Featuring satisfying horn lines and a wicked organ solo, but the real stand out section of this song is the bass solo about halfway through.

Classical music needed to be included on the playlist in one form or another, but I tried to take it away from the stereotypical orchestral works, so “The Spheres” by Ola Gjeilo makes an appearance. This choral piece is very ethereal and wonderful to have on while working. The vocalists don’t do any ridiculous or distracting lines, it’s very atmospheric. It seems long because not a lot is happening, but there is beauty in its simplicity.

Funky Dawgz brass band played at BAR in downtown New Haven Wed. Sept. 9 (CT News Photo) ByMICHAEL QUICK

AR, a well-known establishment in downtown New Haven (by those of age), features free live music every Wednesday night and this past Wednesday, Sept. 9, The Funky Dawgz brass band was featured. The Funky Dawgz hail from Storrs, Conn. but they are heavily rooted in traditional New Orleans music while incorporating in R&B, Hip Hop, as well as today’s top hits. Although the group was smaller at BAR, the band boasts an impressive eleven members: three trumpets, three percussionists, two saxophonists, two trombones, and a sousaphone (often confused for a tuba). As a whole the band was

incredibly tight and performed remarkably well. The two percussionists synced so well with one another, had your eyes been closed you would have assumed it was one person behind a drum kit as opposed to one on bass drum and one playing the snare. By far, the stand out member of the band, while not entirely obvious, was the sousaphonist. The entire show he played completely consistently and performed almost as if he was the bassist in a band with traditional rock instrumentation. He even incorporated a number of glissandos to end particular phrases as bassists can often be found doing. The set list for the night was what could be expected: upbeat and funky material, with covers of popular songs played in a similar style. The Funky Dawgz’ cover of “Uptown Funk,” originally by Mark Ronson, lent itself particularly well to this

instrumentation seeing as the original already incorporated horns throughout. A favorite of the night was the New Orleans staple “When the Saints Go Marching In,” which The Funky Dawgz played their hearts out on. The crowd responded incredibly well to The Funky Dawgz. To begin with, it was one of the largest amount of people that I’ve seen out on a Wednesday in a while. Not only that, but everyone in the audience was moving. The energy was contagious. A conga line even made its way around the room for a short time. The band thrived off of the energy, calling people on stage, initiating audience participation. All in all it was a fun night. If you’re 21 and don’t have anything to do on a Wednesday night, go down to BAR they always have interesting acts come through.

Why the Big Screen Matters By BEN ATWATER

FILM EDITOR BATWA1@.UNH.NEWHAVEN.EDU

–––––––––––––––––––––

hile Netflix and less legal sources on the internet are great ways for films to reach viewers they otherwise would not have, there will never be a replacement for the big screen experience. Since the 1920s, the art of going out to the cinema for an evening of film watching either followed or preceded by social occasions has been one of the most widespread pastimes all across the world. Since the 20s, the act of going to a movie theater has become less like the opera-like occasion it was and more like an expensive sporting event. Instead of dressing up and remaining quiet, the modern day experience stresses spending more on mediocre food that costs more than the price of the already expensive ticket.

Nevertheless, despite the commercialization of the industry, going to the movies is still my favorite pastime and always will be. The key difference between watching a movie on Netflix versus watching it at the cinema is the experience of it. Watching a movie on a laptop is merely watching a movie. Making plans to drive out with friends, get food, and get the best seats in the house is an event. I remember each and every film I have seen in the movie theater and the entire night surrounding it; where I went to eat before or after, who drove who, etc. While we are paying more, we are a part of the American culture and file in with countless other strangers who all have enough interest to spend over ten bucks to sit in a chair for two hours. Asides from the event

of going out, seeing films projected on a 100 foot plus screen with surround sound blasting the story all around you makes the film that much more engaging. The difference is comparable to watching a sports game on TV versus going to the stadium on game day. The former can never compare to the latter, despite the price differential. There are, or hopefully not, no distractions in a movie theater. The film is the one thing to pay attention to. As much as I loved Snowpiercer, watching it from my iPad, I was subjected to roommates coming in and out of the room as well as the inclination to check my phone every five minutes or so. While still a very engaging film, the big screen experience must have been incredible. It is a shame that historical epics from the golden age of Hollywood like Lawrence

Nolan’s Next Project: A Mystery

A scene from Interstellar (AP photo) of Arabia and Bridge on the River Kwai are seldom screened in cinema. In 2014, I was fortunate to catch a Classic Series at AMC Theaters where BenHur was screened. Ben-Hur became one of my favorite films immediately, as the spectacle and scope of the

film carried through completely on the big screen, even though it was a smaller theater. Seeing what became one of my favorite movies on the big screen created a landmark event in my life. I will always remember the experience of going with my aunt

to the diner beforehand, and then walking into the wrong theater before finding the correct one. Since that Wednesday night over a year ago, I have understood the value in going to cinema. And of See BIG SCREEN page 9

It is arguable that no other director has shaped the past decade of film more than Christopher Nolan. Coming to prominence ten years ago with Batman Begins, Nolan reinvigorated the superhero genre offering a contemporary, grounded take on the caped crusader who previously starred in one of the worst films of all time, Batman and Robin. Followed by an even more beloved sequel, The Dark Knight achieved unprecedented critical and financial success for a su-

perhero film. Next was Inception, a heist film where the thieves use technology to delve into their victims’ dreams to retrieve contraband information. Inception was groundbreaking for its story within a story plot, and had excellent performances and visual effects. 2012 brought The Dark Knight Rises, which was a very satisfying and epic conclusion to the Batman trilogy. Delving into sci-fi with Interstellar in 2014, Nolan delivered one of the most scientifically accurate films ever made, while giving us an experience to remember for ages. So, after a slew of successful films, the question

is what is next for Nolan? Warner Brothers announced that Nolan will be directing a feature for them set to come out July 2017. Nothing is known at all about the project besides the director and release date. There is always room for speculation. It is known that asides from the Batman trilogy, Nolan always directs different types of movies. Memento is not at all similar in subject matter to Inception, which is nothing like Interstellar. Nolan has delved into superheroes, heists, sci-fi, psychological thrillers, and mystery. What does that leave for Nolan? A period piece war See NOLAN page 9

A Monster Mash is Brewing By BEN ATWATER

FILM EDITOR BATWA1@.UNH.NEWHAVEN.EDU

–––––––––––––––––––––

The age of giant monster films is finally returning, starting with Pacific Rim in 2013. 2014 brought Godzilla, and 2015 brought Jurassic World. All three films have been very profitable, and it now looks as though a crossover is in the works. Coming in 2017 is Kong: Skull Island. The first film with the world’s most famous giant ape since Peter Jackson’s 2005 masterpiece, Kong boasted an all-star cast including Academy class actors Michael Keaton and JK Simmons. Meant to be a prequel delving into King Kong’s island home, Kong: Skull Island will be set in the 1970s, a new spin on the King Kong films. The traditional King Kong story depicts a film crew go-

ing on a dangerous location shoot, only to be pursued by hostile natives, nonextinct dinosaurs, and of course, King Kong himself. Best realized in Peter Jackson’s 2005 epic, the sense of adventure and mystery has always been central elements that make the King Kong films so appealing. So, the upcoming Kong: Skull Island is sure to delve deeper into the sense of adventure and jungle chases that make the 1933 and 2005 films so entertaining. Also in production is a sequel to the 2014 film Godzilla. Godzilla revived a sixty year old series with 30 installments, 28 of which were Japanese productions. While many dispute over Godzilla’s lack of screen time in the latest installment, Godzilla (2014) is accepted across the board as being leagues better than the other American Godzilla film from 1998, directed by Roland Emerich. G’14 captured the monstrosity and peril that made

the original 1954 Gojira such an impactful film. Making over $500 million, it’s no wonder that a sequel has been greenlit, set to come out in 2018. Directed by returning director Gareth Edwards, not much is known about Godzilla 2. What is known is that it will feature three of Godzilla’s most famous adversaries from the Japanese Toho films; Mothra, King Ghidorah, and Rodan will all make an appearance. Edwards also claimed that the Monster Island from the earlier films will play into the story. Monster Island is an initiative to contain all of the world’s kaiju (Japanese giant monsters) that was a central plot element to the 1968 film Destroy All Monsters, which was considered the climax of the original Godzilla film series. So how are these two movies related? Well, Sept. 10 it was announced that Kong: Skull Island is being moved See MONSTER MASH page 9

film about the Revolutionary War could certainly benefit from Nolan’s gritty style. Or perhaps a fantasy akin to Lord of the Rings, yet not even Nolan could ever compete with those films. Maybe even a comedy, as out of place as that sounds for Nolan. Regardless, based off his track record, whatever Christopher Nolan directs is sure to be a groundbreaking thoughtful film. There are some clues that suggest that this upcoming mystery project is more likely to be a blockbuster epic than a small

scale film, based off its release date alone. Within a month of Jul. 21, Toy Story 4, Wonder Woman, Pirates of the Caribbean 5, War of the Planet of the Apes, the new Spiderman film, and Pacific Rim 2 will all be released. These are more movies than some see in a year alone, and they all have similar target demographics. On the one hand, putting out a tent pole film will get attention from the mainstream and perhaps take some business from Apes or Spiderman. On the other hand, put-

ting out an abstract smaller scale film may also target the people not interested in all of the mainstream action films and hence create business where there was none before, instead of transferring where business is given. More information will likely come toward the winter months to keep the public intrigued by Nolan’s latest project. Stay tuned, and if you have any speculation or opinion on what you would like to see Nolan direct from his next project, email the above account and I will publish them!

over to Warner Brothers from Universal. Warner Brothers also just happens to be the studio behind Godzilla 2. It’s not hard to put two and two together here. Both films feature an island full of primordial monsters. Perhaps 1970s Skull Island from Kong: Skull Island will be the same island as Monster Island in Godzilla 2. Skull Island is very isolated and already has giant dinosaurs, insects, and apes inhabiting it; perhaps nuclear fallout will turn some of these creatures to Godzilla size behemoths. There could well be a

pteranodon and giant moth on Skull Island that grow to become Rodan and Mothra. After Kong: Skull Island and Godzilla 2 are released, it seems very feasible that a follow up film could have the two face off on Skull/ Monster Island. Godzilla and Kong have faced off before. King Kong versus Godzilla was released in 1962, and is one of the fan favorites of the series for the sense of fun that seeing the world’s most famous monsters face off brings to the screen. While the fights in King Kong versus Godzilla were very entertaining, they were done through the art of suits, just like all of the Japanese Godzilla films. Seeing the two monsters face off in

beautiful Hollywood CGI would be a spectacle for the ages. Both King Kong (2005) and Godzilla (2014) boasted excellent visual effects, and the art will only be polished even more by 2018. While special effects clearly do not make a movie great, a fight between Godzilla and King Kong is purely a visual feast. The thought of seeing that battle in IMAX is awe-inspiring. While no official announcement has been made, it is clear that a crossover is the logical and artistically sound move to make that will satisfy fans of both properties.

to see movies at the theater, there are cheaper options to still get the big screen experience for cheaper. The Bowtie Criterion Theater in downtown New Haven runs an “Insomnia Theater” series. Every week, on Fridays and Saturdays at 11:30 pm, movies are shown for $4.50. The offerings are typically older films with a large fan following. Last year, I saw Close Encounters of the Third Kind, a film I watched as a child and did not care for. After seeing the alien saucers

projected on a giant screen with surround sound, I have come to realize how much of a spectacle Spielberg’s masterpiece is. Coming up in the Insomnia Theater programming is Blade Runner and Terminator 2, both of which are considered to be enhanced by the cinema. A cheaper option to see great films on the big screen, programs like these continue on the art of cinema that has captured millions of hearts for a century.

course, not only classic films are great on the big screen. A few recent films that come to mind as being enhanced by the big screen experience are Gravity, The Desolation of Smaug, and Mad Max: Fury Road. All three feature beautifully rendered landscapes and special effects that draw in the viewer all the more. After seeing all three on the smaller screen, they are still great films but lack the impact that the cinema gave them. While it is very expensive

Recipe of the Week Taco Stuffed Peppers By ASHLEY WEMMELL

STAFF WRITER AWEMM1@UNH.NEWHAVEN.EDU

–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

Ask Melanie

Email unhaskmelanie@gmail.com, find her on Facebook at UNH Ask Melanie, or follow her Twitter @unhaskmelanie. Identities will always remain confidential! Dear Melanie,

I just found out that my dog died while I’m here at school, and I’m miserable. I can’t even go home because of my class schedule, so I’m even more upset about it than I normally would be. Do you have any advice on how I can get over this? Thanks, A Mourning Marine Bio Major

Dear Mourning, First of all, I’m so sorry to hear about your dog! Losing a pet is hard; it’s like losing a member of the family. In terms of coping, however, talking about how you’re feeling is always the best way to get over one’s grief. Talk to your family, your friends, your roommate(s) - anybody who can help you out and be there to listen. The University also offers counseling services if you feel you could get some use out of them.

XOXO,

Melanie Ingredients: 1 pound ground beef (Can substitute ground turkey or shredded chicken) 1 clove garlic, minced ⅔ cups water 1 (1 oz.) packet Taco Seasoning 1 (15 oz.) can black beans ¾ cup salsa ¾ cup Sour Cream 2 cups shredded Mexican Cheese 3 medium bell peppers, cut in half Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Add ground beef (or meat of choice), garlic, and onions and cook on medium heat for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add ⅔ cup water and 1 packet taco seasoning and continue to cook for additional 10 minutes. Add ½ black beans and salsa, combining into mixture. Top with ½ cup shredded cheese and let it melt. Reduce heat to low. Place bell peppers (hollow side- up) on a greased baking pan, and bake in the oven for about 7 minutes. Remove the peppers from the oven and scoop the taco filling inside each one. Top each with remaining cheese. Place back in the oven until the cheese is melted. Serve with remaining black beans and salsa, along with sour cream.

Poetry Corner

If you’ve listened close to silence, I’m sure that you have heard, The gentle constant ringing, In the space between two words. When you really pay attention, You find it’s not just in your head, But instead is whispers of the words, The world has left unsaid, It’s “I love you” left unspoken, And a mothers last goodbye, That she never got the chance to say, As she watched her daughter die, It’s forgiveness never given, And a “sorry” left too late, That would have saved a best friends life, If they’d known it could not wait, It’s a phrase that could have helped them, And it’s secrets that could heal, It’s words from those too scared to say, The truth of how they feel, But you have an advantage, For you’re still alive to speak, Words that could help save a life, Or give strength to someone weak, So may you never leave unspoken, Words the whole world ought to hear, Before they just become a ringing, In another person’s ear.

Simply Sam’s Style New York Fashion Week: What to Look Forward To By SAMANTHA SALVIO

W

STAFF WRITER SSALV1@UNH.NEWHAVEN.EDU

ith the seasons soon changing, that only means one thing--New York Fashion Week! That’s right it is that time again for the most coveted fashion event filled with non-stop morning-to-night shows until Sept. 17. With new changes, new designers and always surprising new looks this year’s event is more than worth checking out. The event itself logistically has made some major changes that has shaken up the traditions of the show, but change is always good right? The most immediate change that can be noticed

is the new logo that sports a branding color scheme of blue and orange. This is a result of the most surprising change yet; Lexus has replaced Mercedes-Benz as the official sponsor and the location of this year’s event is no longer held at the Lincoln Center. Here are the three most anticipated labels that I am looking forward to: 1. Tanya Taylor: As the most recent winner of the Woolmark Prize that launched the careers of Yves Saint Laurent and Karl Lagerfeld, I can’t wait to see what she has in store for this season’s line. This New York-based designer has said to look

––––––––––––––––––––– forward to functional dresses that can be worn

everywhere, bold colors and knits to accommodate the soon-to-be chilly weather. 2. Baja East: The topic of equality has been in the spotlight more so than a few years ago leading to this designer’s motivation to create an ambisexual line for both men and women. The foundation of all the designs is androgyny and some pieces include slouchy dresses and drop crotch denim.

girls get the same clothes their straighter-line counterparts can?” Their show on the Sept. 15 will showcase plussized models and a line that is both high fashion and fitted to women with curves.
