PSU documentary captures lives of five patients at Oregon State Hospital Tamara K. Kennedy Vanguard staff

A new documentary film, which is currently on its way to international viewing, began at Portland State in the fall of 2007 as a gender and madness class project. Written and directed by psychology professor Janice Haaken, Guilty Except for Insanity—Maddening Journeys through an American Asylum portrays human dilemmas behind public stereotypes for the criminally insane.

In order to gain community feedback before the final cut, an opinion screening for the film was held on June 27 at Whitsell Auditorium as part of the Northwest

Film School’s Visiting Artists Program. According to Haaken, so many people attended the event that they were forced to turn away approximately 100 people.

The film began as part of a group project that involved students taking an informal survey on responses to media coverage concerning the Oregon State Hospital in Salem, according to Haaken.

The project grew into a documentary that involved about 80 PSU students over the course of two years. Students worked as crew members, production assistants and gaffers. In addition, 12 students transcribed 70 interviews with the patients, Haaken said.

Most students on the crew were also part of ongoing research seminars. Though Haaken wrote the script, the students drew out key themes from 600 pages of transcripts, she said.

Jimena Alvardo, a PSU doctoral student in community psychology who has consistently worked on the film project since 2008, spoke of having conversations with patients that involved different perspectives rather than sensationalist fear messages often seen in the media.

“Giving people in the psychiatric system a real voice and showing their humanity lets us move away from the discrimination and stigma they face every day,” Alvardo said.

Alvardo attended a hearing where one of the five patients featured in

New initiative supports Latino students Task Force identifies priority tasks, including more scholarship funds Catrice Stanley Vanguard staff

After nine months of studying data, reviewing literature and evaluating successful endeavors at similar universities, the Task Force on Latina and Latino Student Success has completed the assignment it began in the fall of 2009.

On June 9, the task force released a report outlining the decisions the committee made during the previous months. This report can be viewed in its entirety at www.pdx.edu/diversity.

The new initiative has been allotted $250,000 to support Latino students at Portland State in the upcoming academic year. The task force, assembled by President Wim Wiewel, was designed to decide where the funds would be most useful for Latino students.

According to Wiewel, the money will be withdrawn from the general university funds, which are supplied by state funds and tuition money.

Although the specifics are still being decided upon, the money will help fund initiatives to promote four tasks that were identified as high priorities by the committee.

The first task—deemed the most important—is to increase funding for scholarships offered to

the film, Brandy Adams, challenged her bipolar diagnosis.

“It seemed like such a perfect moment of validation, where she finally had a voice in the process,” Alavardo said.

Guilty Except for Insanity documents the lives of five patients at OSH, a hospital that has been notorious for its alleged patient abuse, according to the press release.

“The film in some ways addresses the ancient question of how to assign criminal blame,” Haaken said.

In order to emphasize the dilemmas encountered by those who successfully used the insanity defense, Haaken used animation

sequences, as well as clips from One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, which was filmed at OSH in 1975.

Though the insanity defense delivers defendants from criminal responsibility, it may result in longer confinement than if the patients had served a regular prison sentence, according to the press release.

According to Haaken, part of the film’s intent is to open up viewers’ thoughts for alternatives to incarceration and forced confinement.

Of the five patients in the film, one killed his father, three

Yesterday, Portland State President Wim Wiewel visited the Cheerful Tortoise to cheer on his home team from the Netherlands as they faced off with Uruguay in the 2010 World Cup. According to Portland State’s website, Wiewel was raised in Amsterdam before moving to the U.S. to attain a Ph.D. in sociology from Northwestern University.

Latino students. The second task is to increase the amount of Latino faculty and staff on campus.

According to the report, the number of Latino faculty at PSU is modest. The ratio of Latino faculty to the total student body is currently lower than the ratios at University of Oregon, Oregon State University and Western Oregon University.

The third task identified by the task force is to design and fund a cultural center on campus for Latino students, which will be called La Casa Latina.

Although very little about the center

has been established, the report recommends that efforts to create the new building begin immediately.

Lastly, the task force acknowledged the need to recruit more Latino students through both high schools and community colleges.

“The task force has done a great job of looking at best practices elsewhere, and then talking to our community,” Wiewel said in a press release. “We will be working on implementing as many of the recommendations as quickly as we can.”

Wiewel also stated that PSU will raise additional money for the scholarships.

The idea for the Latino Student Success task force originated when Wiewel first arrived at PSU in August of 2008. It was at this point that Wiewel became aware of the rapid growth of the Latino population in the Portland area.

According to Wiewel, Oregon schools have seen the percentage of Latino students in K–12 schools nearly double in the last 10 years.

However, he did not see this same growth reflected in PSU’s student population.

The film also includes songs written and performed by patients and staff, photos and criminal and court records, according to the press release.

After completing the final changes to the film, the next step is to submit to film festivals and to television networks. Haaken expects Guilty Except for Insanity to be available online or in a DVD format within one year.

In the meantime, Haaken is working with community groups to organize screenings in educational settings, for educational conferences or for benefits.

PSU, the co-producer, holds the copyright and played a large role through legal council and resources, Haaken said.

The film’s proceeds will go towards a fund—supervised

by Haaken—which will be held for documentaries on community health, social and psychological problems.

Cathlene McGraw fills new position in Queer Student Services Catrice Stanley Vanguard staff

Cathlene McGraw’s first day of employment at the Queer Resource Center isn’t until July 19, but that hasn’t stopped her from getting acquainted with the campus in the weeks leading up to her official arrival.

She plans to spend time prior to her first day of work on Portland State’s campus so she can meet students and colleagues.

“Coming to Portland State has been incredible. All the students and staff I’ve met so far have been super

New face at PSU welcoming to me,” she said. “People are excited and ready to start working with this position.”

McGraw has been appointed as the coordinator of Queer Student Services, Outreach, and Education, a new position added to Queer Student Services at PSU. “Queer students and their allies face a unique set of stressors in their identity development and in the support networks that can complicate their ability to access higher education,” she said.

McGraw also explained that those working in QSS collaborate with other offices, including

diversity and multicultural student services, disability services and veterans support, so that “students can feel like all of their identities and experiences can be honored and accepted at any office they access at Portland State University.”

As coordinator of QSS, McGraw will work with PSU students, staff and faculty, as well as the entire Portland community in order to provide a campus environment that is free of homophobia, heterosexism and gender bias, she said.

“On a daily basis, this means working with students to provide

support for their experiences on campus, as well as leadership opportunities and events. [It means working] to provide queer students and their allies with equitable access to resources to assist them throughout their higher education experience,” McGraw said of her position.

She said that she will also work with faculty and staff to ensure student success at PSU, in addition to creating a “supportive community network for queer staff and faculty and their allies.”

McGraw graduated from University of Oregon with a Bachelors of Arts in journalism in 2003. Afterwards, she received her Masters in Science from Oregon State University’s college of Student Services Administration with a concentration in social justice and organizational change in 2006.

McGraw has had plenty of experience in this line of work.

Not only has she spent five years working in student services, but three of those years were specifically spent in lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender services, she said.

These years of experience were gained while McGraw worked at the University of Oregon. During her time working at U of O, she worked in student conduct, conflict resolution services and other nontraditional student programs. Much of that time was spent working as a program assistant to the LGBT Education and Support Services program.

“I love working with students and working within queer communities,” McGraw said. “I feel very blessed to be able to do each of these things every day at work.”

Those currently at the Queer Resource Center share McGraw’s enthusiasm for the queer community and are excited to see her in action.

Beth Olson, administration and publicity coordinator at the QRC, expressed some of the anticipation building for McGraw’s arrival.

“We are super excited to have Cat with us here at the QRC,” Olson said.

“In the Portland Public Schools, 15 percent of students are Latino/ Latina,” he said. “But at PSU, only 5 percent are Latino/Latina.”

Statistics regarding PSU’s diversity levels were enough to influence Wiewel to take action. “[Other] institutions had several special centers and programs addressing the special needs of this population, as well as celebrating their culture,” he said. “PSU seemed to have little or none of that. I realized there was an opportunity for us to do more to reach out to this relatively new population group.”

By the fall of 2009, PSU had already formed the Task Force on Latina and Latino Student Success. Carlos Crespo, director and professor for the School of Community Health, was appointed chair of the task force.

“The formation of this task force allowed us to discover existing resources and the willingness of people in the community and at the university to create a successful environment for Latino students,” Crespo said in a press release.

The large committee gathered once a month from September of 2009 to May of 2010.

According to a charge made of the task force by Wiewel in October of 2009, the committee members were assembled to discuss how to “best serve the higher education needs and aspirations of Oregon’s Latino community.”

The committee was directed to focus on the recruitment, retention and graduation rates of Latino students.

However, because the task force has completed the job it set forth to accomplish, the committee

members will no longer be meeting.

According to Wiewel, the next step for the Latino Student Success initiative will be the creation of an advisory group to work alongside the PSU Executive Committee and other related departments. This group will collaborate to pursue implementation of the four tasks identified by the initiative.

Over the next few months, the group will be figuring out how to accomplish this.

Task force members like Crespo are eager to see what influence the high-priority tasks will have.

“We look forward to seeing

continued improvement in achievements of current and new Latino students,” Crespo said in the press release.

Though the number of Latino students is lacking, the success rate of Latino students at PSU is essentially equal to those of non-Latino white students, Wiewel said.

In addition, Wiewel feels confident that the number of Latino students on campus will grow in the coming years, and hopes the resolutions of the Task Force will continue to allow Latino students to succeed at PSU. Wiewel also revealed a positive outlook of the decisions made by

the committee.

“I am extremely impressed with the work done by the task force and the broader advisory committee,” he said. “Carlos Crespo has done a phenomenal job as its chair.”

In addition, Wiewel said he looks forward to working with his colleagues across campus to better serve the Latino community and to execute the “excellent recommendations” put forth by the committee.

“An important part of diversity is to recognize that different groups may need different things, and we want to make sure to serve all of our students in the best way possible,”

The event is free to the public.

Jaganjac is a visiting professor from the University of Sarajevo in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

According to Portland State’s website, the Tour the World lecture series is an awardwinning lecture series that showcases selected PSU international visiting professors participating in the International Visiting Professor program.

The Office of International Affairs sponsors the lecture series.

Remember Liz Phair?

COURTESY FOX SEARCHLIGHT PICTURES

While most of us were out on the Fourth of July doing actual fun stuff, there were actually a few people refreshing Liz Phair’s website over and over again, despite her last contribution to the music industry, and thus relevance, being in 2005.

Five years ago, she put out an album that not many people cared about. Because the amount of people who cared had significantly waned since her last effort, so had her cash flow. Now, on America’s birthday, Liz Phair comes at us with Funstyle, a piece that is such a blatant effort to stay relevant that Phair actually comes right out and says as much. The record features Phair rapping and playing various percussive instruments that is normally acceptable if a musical act has a ton of money and just doesn’t care anymore. The problem with Funstyle is just the opposite—Phair does care, a lot. She’s selling the album online for $5.99 and wants people to download it.

This is completely backwards from the aforementioned formula, where an artist has paid their dues writing radio rock jams for years on end, finally has a comfortable pad of cash and can now do whatever they want. This should be henceforth known as the “Beatles phenomenon.” Liz Phair, however, is not the Beatles, nor is she rich.

So, why the cash grab with a sudden burst of experimental flair?

The answer is simple. In today’s new business model, where exceptional songwriting in the field of alternative music must be employed in order to stay afloat, the hacks get separated from the capable in a hurry. Liz Phair is one of those hacks, and in the years to come, we’ll find more of them popping up here and there.

You’ve been warned.

A Thinking Person’s Comedy Cyrus makes the viewer work for their payoff Richard D. Oxley Vanguard staff

You know that one weird kid—we all knew him. Maybe he was home schooled, maybe his folks were just a bit off, perhaps he was just that guy living in his own world or any number of oddball stereotypes. Cyrus is a movie about that kid.

Taboos and 24-hours and superstores, oh my

Two Portland sex shops are catering to the female clientele, and thriving Andrea Vedder Vanguard staff

In a fabulous merger of the sexual revolution and the women’s rights movement, female-friendly sex toy stores have opened and thrived in America’s most progressive cities. There is Babeland in Seattle and New York City, Good Vibrations in San Francisco, and now—because we’re just that good—both the 20-year-old It’s My Pleasure and the brand-new She Bop (The Shop) are here in beautiful Portland, Ore. These stores are staffed by knowledgeable, welcoming and non-judgmental employees (usually women, though not always) and are stocked with pornography and sex toys designed to please and appeal to the female gender.

They are totally awesome.

Most sex toy stores are marketing to men, not women, and inside their black-papered doors, graphic imagery reigns supreme. Photographs (and film) of women with giant breast implants are prominently displayed, and dildos with names like “The Inmate” hang from the store racks­­.

This environment makes many sexy and adventurous women feel unwelcome and uncomfortable— even intimidated—and quite frankly, no one should be shopping for a vibrator under those conditions.

So, good women of Portland: Prepare yourselves for a lovely afternoon foray (or two or three or 17)

Well, not entirely. It’s also about his mother and the guy she’s dating.

Jonah Hill is Cyrus, whose mother Molly (Marissa Tomei) recently began dating again. John is played by John C. Reilley who meets Molly at a party where she shockingly finds his depressing drunken wit amusing enough to start dating him. Things go pretty well until John meets Cyrus, and finds that any relationship he engages in with Molly will include her rather unique son.

Cyrus and Molly share a close mother and son bond forged over 21 years together—a relationship that is, for lack of a better term, creepy.

John and Cyrus simultaneously do and don’t get along, and this is the core of the film—the two men staring each other down over the same woman. Eventually, you realize that they are actually rather alike.

However, the road to this realization is positively paved with desiccated sobering comedy.

The main thing you should know about this movie is that it is very funny, even though you might not be aware of it while watching. Cyrus tickles my driest of funny bones, and

as with most movies which utilize dry humor, many viewers are left scratching their heads wondering where all the crotch shots, over-thetop characters or zany situations fully stocked with one-liners are. If your idea of a comedy is a blockbuster full of Dane Cook style jokes, farts or even just in-your-face antics, then you should steer clear of Cyrus.

You won’t find any of that here.

Laughs are had at the expense of simple absurdities of life that, in the end, aren’t too uncommon after all.

Plenty of single parents date and must take their kids into consideration, and plenty of kids share strong relationships with their parents. This comedy is therefore very plain while the cinematography, which uses a shaky documentary style, further adds to the genuine feel of the film.

Creepy and awkward are key themes in Cyrus. Every character is odd in their own way. John is certainly needy and lays his neediness on pretty thick, while Cyrus is an independent soul who is so overly unique that he is oblivious to how weird he can be…or is he? Molly is the kind of woman who would raise

doms to strap-ons. Every vibrator and dildo in stock has a “tester” lying beside it—you are welcome to touch and test everything in the store— and there is a wide variety to choose from. Some vibrators and dildos are designed as penis replacements, and they look like the real thing. Others are designed to be pretty, sleek or small. Signs detailing IMP’s return policy are posted on the walls, as are Dan Savage columns, interesting articles, pregnancy and STD statistics for the state of Oregon, comic strips and a Consumer Report chart comparing condom brands. You could leave this store well informed without ever having asked a question.

IMP is lesbian-friendly, and they have all of the little details that come with 20 years of experience. They can also make special orders, and frequently hold classes. Some are taught by staff, others by visiting experts, and topics range from “How to Build an Open Relationship” to “G-Spot Stimulation.”

It’s My Pleasure

This may be the original femalefriendly sex toy store. IMP originally opened in 1991 on Hawthorne Boulevard, and 10 years later the high-and-rising rent forced owner Holly Mulcahey to move her business.

She bought a house in a mixed-zoning area on Northeast 64th Avenue, just off Sandy Boulevard, and IMP has thrived there, too. Now that Holly’s retiring and leaving her lovechild to a long-time employee, IMP is on the hunt for another new location—no leads yet.

The current location on 64th Avenue is discreet and homey. A white picket fence and flower garden preface the entrance, and inside there are three distinct areas: The main room, the side room and the back room.

The main room is home to the cashier’s counter, as well as the lubricants and knick-knacks like bumper stickers and party favors. The lubricant selection is impressive, and a large handmade chart representing which lubricant features (waterbased, organic, flavored, etc.) match which brand is an extremely helpful tool for making a smart purchase.

The side room is stocked with books and movies. There is a comfortable reading chair, if you’d like to sit down and peruse, as well as a table of complimentary tea, coffee and snacks. The books cover the bases, from She Comes First to Tickle His Pickle, and there are erotic and comic selections too. The movies are carefully selected pornography, most notably featuring the Crash Pad series (a professionally produced queer and lesbian series featuring amateur stars), the Comstock films (erotic documentary films featuring real couples) and the Candida Royale films (by women, for women).

The back room is where a shopper can find everything from con-

She Bop

Everything about She Bop is cute.

From the name (seriously, naming a sex toy boutique after a song about female masturbation is even cuter than Cindy Lauper singing it in the first place) to the toys in stock (ticklers, anyone?), this shop very much belongs in its location on North Mississippi Avenue. Even better, SB delivers all of the fresh and fun-loving energy you’d hope for from a store owned by two long-time friends.

As the store’s name implies, the focus here is on female masturbation. There are no strap-ons or rubber penises; rather, there are dozens and dozens of vibrators to choose from, in many shapes, sizes and price ranges.

Some look like small animals, some look like neck massagers; some are silicone, some are pink plastic; some are very high-end, some are novelty.

All of them are quality, and every model has a “tester” beside the box for you to turn on and judge.

While SB may focus on female masturbation, that priority does not

a kid like Cyrus and be attracted to a guy like John. She is also the kind of woman who would breast feed a five-year-old.

While the wit is experienced on a deeper level than what is being shown to you, another even deeper level is present that you don’t get with a lot of comedies. These characters each have a variety of dimensions which tell another story that may go over the heads of a lot of viewers. Is Cyrus truly that weird? Is John a creep? What is really happening between these people?

Find out for yourself, but be aware that this is a thinking person’s comedy.

If you don’t want to work a little to find your laugh, then you might be better off going to see Grown Ups.

On a recent July-uary (these jokes aren’t funny anymore, are they?) day in downtown, the sky resembled a quilt of confusion: Cloud here, sun there, another cloud here. The beautiful thing about Oregonians is their extreme weather optimism. Sitting on the everlasting patio of recently-opened Violetta in Director Park, diners enjoyed their burgers as if there was not a chill to be found. Sure, the sky above held some threatening darker clouds, but Violetta’s covered patio melted worries away.

After much talk, Violetta’s permanent restaurant spot is finally open. Back in December, the restaurant suffered from a fire and had to delay its opening. With the true optimistic spirit of Oregonians, it opened a taxi yellow food truck named Etta that rolled around town inviting Portlanders to engage with what was to come in June.

It is too early to give an official review of the spot (we at the Daily Vanguard like to give restaurants some time to grow), but here is a blind date experience with the new kid in downtown.

The inspiration behind Violetta is to take what everyone likes to eat, and to tweak it in a healthier direction. This slow-fast restaurant offers up your standard fast food fare of burgers, fries, hot dogs, milkshakes and sodas, but does so without clogging the items with unknown chemicals.

The restaurant’s dishes also fall under the slow food movement category because eating healthy at Violetta is not an altogether impossible feat. Among the restaurant’s pasture-raised Black Angus beef burgers are also turkey burgers and a polenta and mushroom burger that is not only vegetarian-friendly but also accessible to vegans as well.

There are also four separate salad options that are standard diner fare, like the Violetta Caesar as well as the cobb-like Director Park Salad.

The burgers really take the time to correct the less-memorable fast food versions we are used to. The burger patty itself, which in a drivethru can be found to be gummy and thin, is replaced with a thick (onethird to one-half pound), juicy patty.

Violetta shakes its head to wilted iceberg lettuce and a sad, watery tomato. Instead, the burger is topped with “10 hour tomatoes,” which deliver an excellent tang as well a nice chewy texture. Crisp butter lettuce and super dill pickles add crunch,

and a creamy sauce stands in for the mayo that is usually slathered on the expected Mc-you-know-who burger.

The hot dogs also have been slightly tweaked, offered with super dill relish, house kraut, sweet onions and a smoky harissa ketchup. One customer found the beef chili frank to be especially delicious, saying that “the caramelized onions taste nice and sweet—the consistency adds a really nice touch!”

In addition to lunch and dinner options, Violetta customers can hit up a hefty breakfast menu as well, which includes whole wheat biscuit sandwiches, creamy coconut oatmeal with seasonal fruit, and light, doughy beignets (France’s powdered sugar dusted version of the doughnut) served with either an espresso chocolate sauce or a fruit spread.

Playstation Move poised to overtake Microsoft’s Kinect?

In the aftermath of E3, what’s got the industry talking?

Steve Haske Vanguard staff

I’m just going to put this out there: E3, or the Electronics Entertainment Expo for the uninitiated, kind of sucked this year.

Once a year all the major (and minor) video game companies descend upon Los Angeles to show off their new wares, but 2010 just didn’t seem to be a year worth getting excited over.

Out of the big three, Nintendo was the only company that brought its A-game, with the unveiling of the 3DS (a glasses-less, 3D upgrade to its handheld Nintendo DS system), a new Donkey Kong Country, Zelda and Kirby for the Wii. Sony and Microsoft both seemed equally

bamboozled with their motion controllers (and Sony with 3D games) with few actual honest-to-god nogimmick titles.

Third parties were in a bit of a slump too, with a glut of sequels and me-too titles populating the show floor (EA, Sega, Konami and SquareEnix notwithstanding).

But the biggest disappointment of all was the lack of big reveals at the show—other than a few scant seconds of gameplay from Metal Gear Solid Rising, the unveiling of InFamous 2 and a handful of others, all the heavy hitters you wanted to hear more about this year (like Team ICO’s The Last Guardian, Final Fantasy XIII Vs. or Arkham Asylum 2) were conspicuously absent.

So what has the industry been talking about in the weeks after the show? Read on, gamers, for some post-show rumblings…

Mustaphamond doesn’t play often, and when it does, it isn’t to be missed. Truly one of Portland’s—and dare I say the country’s— best experimental/ prog-rock bands, Mustaphamond has been known to utilize unique elements of its environment in order to craft the band’s sound. Nothing is off limits, and you’ll be hard-pressed to find a more unique spot for this show than the Goodfoot, which normally plays host to funk and soul groups.

2010 is, evidently, the year that motion controls are invading video games. With Sony’s Move controller (basically looks like a Wiimote with a rubber ball or a vibrator attached— your choice) launching in September for $50, Microsoft’s pricey, hands-free Kinect system—listed on Amazon for $150—seems like it might not be the most popular item when it’s released for the 2010 holiday season. And even though the Move doesn’t have a super amazing lineup yet, at least we can look forward to blasting non-zombies in Resident Evil 5 (again) and, uh, blasting generic baddies in a new Time Crisis. That sure beats the hell out of…Kinectimals.

On a positive, environmental note, the restaurant offers not only a recycling bin for disposing, but also a compost can as well. Another aspect to note is that when you receive your meal, it always comes in a to-go container, which is helpful for those with small appetites, but could be perceived wrongly as “hurry up and eat.”

Violetta is new on the block, but if the restaurant continues to grow and offers something for every kind of diner, it may become a local favorite.

Nintendo slips up on 3DS launch announcement

Appearing on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon last week, Nintendo of America president Reggie FilsAime said the 3DS would be out next near. Then, following the on-air statement, sources close to Nintendo of Japan said that what Fils-Aime said was in fact a mistake.

Could this mean that the 3DS could be out in time for the 2010 holiday rush? Nintendo isn’t talking. But somehow, it seems likely.

You’ll likely never see a live show crazier than Tel Aviv’s Monotonix, and East End is the only venue in Portland with the guts to book them a second time, after Monotonix tore the sprinkler system out of their ceiling last winter. Though not technically punk of any sort, no other band on this planet will revitalize your faith in the long-forgotten world of image-free punk rock, where everyone gets together and has a blast while avoiding all sorts of flying hazards, be they guitars, trash or tiny Israeli band members.

We like hearing what our readers have to say.

This week we talk about the Supreme Court ruling and how it could impact us here in Portland. Gun laws have always been a hot topic in this country, and it may only get hotter in weeks to come.

We also talk about the growing trend of cutting school budgets to try and save money. Surely there is something that can be done that doesn’t involve hacking and slashing school budgets.

Are we safer without guns? Is there any way to keep up funding for schools?

You tell us.

OPINION Supreme Court shoots down gun ban Relaxed gun laws may put people at risk Natalia Grozina Vanguard staff

CALENDAR The New York Times Syndication Sales Corporation 500 Seventh Avenue, New York, N.Y. 10018 For Information Call: 1-800-972-3550 For Release Wednesday, July 07, 2010

About 80 million Americans own more than 223 million guns.

Of those 80 million, 60 percent of Democrats and only 30 percent of Republicans favor stronger gun ownership laws.

According to a recent 5-4 Supreme Court decision, Americans nationwide have a constitutional right to have a handgun at home for self-defense, even in cities that have outlawed handguns until now.

This decision reversed a ruling that upheld the city of Chicago’s ban on handguns and, according to The Huffington Post, this decision also declared the 1982 ordinance unconstitutional.

The article also reported that Mayor Richard Daley will “rewrite its gun ban ordinance because a Supreme Court ruling today has made the current law unenforceable.”

The right to bear arms has been debated for many years now, with some people believing that the Second Amendment grants them this right. Others, however, think it is limited to the states and militias.

Despite that, the “right to bear arms” is not a good idea.

Why do you need to carry around a pistol? It seems like the only reason people do this in some

School funding may need a strategy change Meaghan Daniels Vanguard staff

It is no secret that the economy has been—and is still—in trouble. The economy is in such dire straits that when schools are discussed, words like budget cuts are so engrained into our vocabulary that no one flinches or even bats an eye. Oregon is considering cutting programs to cover the lack of state funding.

Schools need to be restructured, but for the most part, the public is just sitting back and watching as school days are slashed, teachers are laid off and programs are cut. Where is the outrage as class sizes grow larger and larger? Where is the fire in the belly?

cities is for one purpose: Because they can. The U.S. has the highest rate of gun ownership and gun homicide in the developed world.

Besides police and other government-employed personnel, who has or needs firearms besides criminals? In the U.K., the crime rate for rapes, burglaries and muggings is about the same as in the U.S. The only difference is that when it comes to murders, the rate is about onefifth. So why in the world did the Supreme Court just support more

potential murders?

Furthermore, if there is a nationwide ban on guns then cities like Portland will possibly be protected from unreasonable police shootings because officers feel threatened. The Huffington Post article reported that the mayor of Chicago said his primary goal would be to protect police officers, paramedics and emergency workers from being shot when responding to an incident at a home. He said he also wants to save taxpayers

from the financial cost of lawsuits if police shoot someone in the house because an officer felt threatened.

When police officers know there is potential that the person they are trying to arrest has a gun, they are more likely to respond more aggressively and, ultimately, it could result in a shooting fatality.

The Supreme Court is wrong for passing a law allowing people to bear arms because it only makes living in the U.S. more dangerous than it already is.

Vanguard Etc. | 7 July 7, 2010

Portland Public Schools Superintendent Carole Smith has proposed cutting the equivalent of 178 teachers, reducing high school faculty by 10 percent and eliminating elementary and middle school physical education. Finally, some outrage has surfaced with that possibility.

It is sad that this is what it might come down to. Physical education has been a part of schools for a very long time and, with the country’s childhood obesity rate rising, it continues to be important.

If you cannot cut physical education, what else is there to cut?

School days have been cut, teacher positions have been cut, salaries have been cut and even administrative positions have been cut.

Schools are running out of things to cut out of their budgets,

yet positions are still being eliminated across the board. Nearly all of the Portland area metro districts are expected to eliminate staff positions, ranging from 15 in some areas to 180 in others.

Schools have been dealing with these cuts every year. Each plan to cut the school budget is only a setup for the following school year. Maybe what the schools need are bigger plans—plans that extend past the 2010–11 school year. Maybe then so many people’s jobs and student programs and classes will not be floating up in the air.

Every year, schools are scrambling to find a Band-Aid to fix the bullet holes in Oregon’s state budget. Programs are bound to be cut, class sizes are bound to overflow and positions are bound to become nonexistent. That is what

Oregon does when it is in economic turmoil; it hacks at the schools. It has simply become the norm.

Maybe that is the reason so many people just appear to be sitting back and watching these cuts happen. But what can be done? Are schools so far in debt that there is nothing else that can be done? Is Oregon too far in debt?

Schools have been nipped and tucked so badly in their structure that they would fit in perfectly in Hollywood with its surgicallyenhanced stars.

Is the answer to Oregon’s economic crisis to continue to cut schools down to the bone? The economy is still spiraling down the tubes in peril. Cutting more and more school days, jobs and programs is not the answer. What should be done differently?

Watch the World Cup in Pioneer Square

SPORTS Academic issues affect Vikings

A free outdoor viewing of the final match of the 2010 World Cup will be available for local soccer fans in downtown Portland on Sunday.

Men’s basketball and football squads penalized for low academic ranking

Starting at 11 a.m., the final match will be shown on a 17-foot by 23-foot truckmounted LED screen at Pioneer Courthouse Square, otherwise known as “Portland’s Living Room.”

Vanguard staff

Sponsored by the Oregon Sports Authority, Portland Timbers, Alpha Broadcasting and TAOW Modern Marketing, Sunday’s viewing party will be similar to one held last month in Director Park which featured the unveiling of the Timbers’ new Major League Soccer crest.

“We’re thrilled to give Oregonians the chance to come together and celebrate the incredible drama of World Cup soccer in the heart of downtown Portland,” said Drew Mahalic, CEO of the Oregon Sports Authority, in a statement released by the company.

A similar viewing party in Pioneer Courthouse Square during the 2006 World Cup attracted thousands of fans, and this year’s expected to be no different.

Two of Portland State’s athletic teams are facing NCAA discipline after scoring less than 925 during a nationwide multi-season review of the academic success of their student-athletes.

The NCAA’s Academic Progress Rate system assigns points to each player on a team, with each player able to earn one point for maintaining good academic standing and one point for remaining at the school being rated. The team’s points are then divided by the points possible to determine the APR, and NCAA regulations stipulate that any score below 925 can lead to the loss of scholarships.

The Portland State men’s basketball squad earned an APR of 865 over four years, from 2005–09, resulting in a ban from postseason play and two scholarships being rescinded. Athletics Director Torre Chisholm said the men’s basketball team usually offers 13 scholarships but can only offer 11 this season.

Head coach Tyler Geving said this doesn’t affect any current players on the team, though it does impact how they can recruit for future candidates. Geving said he’s hopeful

that the Vikings can recruit quality walk-ons while they’re down two scholarships.

Regardless of how Geving’s squad performs this year, the Vikings are ineligible to participate in the NCAA postseason tournament. The Vikings earned two consecutive trips as Big Sky Conference Champions in 2008 and 2009, and though they did not repeat in 2010, they cannot go to the Big Dance this season, even if they top the Big Sky. “I think [the penalties] are a bit harsh, and those numbers don’t take into account the most recent results, the numbers that won’t affect the team until next year,” Geving said.

He added that the team returned a perfect 1,000 last year, and that he anticipates similarly high scores from the team during the coming season.

Geving said the team has focused a lot of effort on how its players perform academically, including making use of tutors and encouraging

In the remaining semifinal, a young and resurgent German team, under coach Joachim Loew, will take on pretournament favorite Spain today in Durban at 11:30 a.m. local time.

Earlier in the competition, three European, four South American and one African nation made up the eight teams for the quarterfinals.

However, the semifinal lineup included all three European teams and just one South American squad.

In what was arguably the most anticipated quarterfinal clash, the Netherlands came back from a first-half one-goal deficit to beat first-ranked Brazil 2-1 at Port Elizabeth on July 2.

student-athletes to access on-campus resources such as the Writing Center.

He also said it’s frustrating for current players to be penalized for a situation they did nothing to create.

Chisholm said his department has added two academic advisors for all programs to address the APR issue.

He also said the number of men’s basketball players in summer courses has increased this term as well.

“I know it looks like—from the outside—something we need to fix, but we’re already doing better and we are doing some really good things for our players,” Geving said. “We’ve been making a lot of progress, putting an effort into it.”

“The big-picture story is more than just the penalty,” Chisholm said. “One story is us being in the penalty, but there’s more to it. We’ve put a lot of things in place, and there are a lot of athletes getting it done academically. Unfortunately, some guys are coming back into the

Geving said regardless of the NCAA penalty, he expects a strong team this year with members that work just as hard as they would with the additional scholarships and the possibility of an NCAA tournament berth.

“We’re not going to use this as an excuse to not show up,” Geving said.

“We’re still going to compete every time, and our goal is to make sure our guys are winning on the court and in the class.”

The football team was also docked two scholarships for registering an APR of 907 last season. Chisholm said he anticipates a higher score for next year, adding that the football squad hasn’t historically had problems with the APR system.

“Overall, this was one disappointing aspect of what was otherwise a very good year for athletics,” Chisholm said.

On the same day, Uruguay became the only South American team to make the semis after defeating Ghana, the last remaining African hope. After being tied 1-1 after extra time, Uruguay prevailed 4-2 in penalty kicks over their African opponents. The Uruguayans conceded a goal in the first half and had a penalty kick against them missed in the last minute of the match. Striker Diego Forlan scored the equalizer for his team in the 55th minute.

Germany booked a semifinal spot in spectacular style on July 3, cruising to a resounding 4-0 win over Diego Maradona’s Argentina team in Cape Town. Striker Miroslav Klose scored two goals, while Thomas Mueller and Arne Friedrich each scored one.

Klose’s brace now puts him tied for second in the World Cup’s all-

time goal scorer list behind Brazil’s Ronaldo. In the team’s previous match, a rampant Germany had banged in four goals against England.

In the final quarterfinal clash, favorites Spain relied upon a penalty save from captain and goalkeeper Iker Casillas and a David Villa goal seven minutes from time to record a solitary-goal win over Paraguay on July 3.

Casillas, who is considered one of the finest goalkeepers in the game today, denied Paraguay’s Oscar Cardozo from the penalty spot in the 59th minute. Spain was finally able to break Paraguay’s resilient defense in the 83rd minute when Villa slotted home a Cesc Fabregas shot, which came back off the post.

In the race for the FIFA Golden Boot honor, Spain’s David Villa currently leads with five goals in the tournament. Closely following him are Germany’s Klose and Thomas Meuller and the Netherland’s Sneijder, who have all scored four goals each.
