New LHU police chief: Tim Stringer Comm 290 Students Guest Writers During a recent interview with multimedia journalism students, the Lock Haven University police chief, Tim Stringer, said he wants to change the perception of the police department here on campus. Stringer joined the LHU police force in August after 25 years of work in State College. Stringer said he took the job at LHU because of his familiarity with the campus over the last 10 years, “I always enjoyed coming here. Every time I came, I felt welcomed.” After taking the position Stringer has been taking time to meet members of the community. He said “I know them enough to know who they are, but not enough to have any prejudices one way or the other.” Stringer said he wants to change the community’s perception of campus police. “We’re not here to arrest you. We are not here to hassle you. We are part of the community, part of the family.” Stringer is already working to change the community’s perception. “I’m going around meeting people and finding ways to mend bridges that might have been burnt or broken by previous members of my department,” Stringer said, “We’re getting a message out to the community that we aren’t just about parking tickets all the time. We’re finding ways to help you[LHU] out.”He is doing just that by changing the way the police interact and distribute information to the community, the timely

warnings in particular. Stringer said “We have Omnilerts[Text alerts], we send it out through email, we post it on the website, and we’re looking to set something up through twitter, through facebook and other sources of social media to get that information out there so that people have everything they need.” The timely warning postings have also moved from being posted on every front door on campus to the bulletin boards in the buildings. Stringer has been working to find better ways to implement campus rules regarding parking. “I don’t want to be known as the department that writes nothing but parking tickets. Parking isn’t our biggest focus anymore, it’s about getting out and interacting with people.” Stringer said. Stringer looks forward to serving LHU and the surrounding community to the best of his ability. “We[public safety] can’t be everywhere all the time, so we need your[LHU students] help to make this a safer place. Being aware of what’s going on around you is going to help us help you.” Stringer said.

Best celebrity Halloween costumes of 2019

Kiara Carson Managing Editor knc9459@lockhaven.edu

Halloween is one of the most festive holidays of the year and celebrated with scary themes, tasty candy, and fantastic costumes to party in. When it comes to a holiday like this, we expect celebrities to go all out with their costumes and we cannot wait to see who can put on a better display of fun. Determining which costumes are the best is somewhat of a challenge with all the exotic choices these stars choose to be, but it’s not impossible! We can easily start with the Kardashian and Jenner families, who absolutely crush it every year. Kim and Kanye came up with a few interesting choices for the family such as being the Flintstones, a group of insects calling themselves the “West Worms”, and then some of cast from the animated movie “Sing”. Between those three choices, I have to name the “West Worms” the winner as it represented everything strange and creepy about Halloween, yet they still managed to look good. Going off of family-oriented costumes, I must commend Khloe for her beautiful picture with her daughter True as Cruella DeVil and a dalmatian. A truly great and twisted mother-daughter photo-op. Turning our attention to the Jenner sisters, starting with Kendall, who popped out looking like a beautiful, golden forest fairy. A gorgeous choice. However, Kylie totally out-did her, giving us more stunning choices like a playboy bunny, Ariel the “grown-up” mermaid, Marilyn Monroe, and even matched Kendall for her birthday as a purple forest fairy. Overall, I believe Kylie’s Ariel costume takes the cake out of all of them. Now, we have to take notice of the self-proclaimed Halloween queen, Demi Lovato. Though she didn’t have many choices this year, she still executed her costumes with amazing flair. First costume was her as a vamped-up Marie Antoinette, but she absolutely killed with her female Pennywise costume which makes it the best choice. Major props have to go out to Miss Liza Koshy for pulling off an unexpected, but fantastic Anna Wintour get-up, which fans absolutely ate up. Next, looking at the best celebrity couples costumes we have a great selection. Starting with Miley Cyrus and Cody Simpson as Perri Lister and Billy Idol; Halsey and Evan Peters as Sonny and Cher, then again as two different versions of Marilyn Manson; Nicki Minaj and new husband Kenneth Petty as Harley Quinn and the Joker and then as Chucky and his bride; and finally a classic remake of Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s “Apeshit”

video starring Ciara and Russel Wilson with a lovely portrait of the Obamas in the background. It’s a really difficult choice, but Minaj and Petty absolutely nailed it with their Chucky and bride costumes, as well as their great makeup. Even though a lot of costumes weren’t reviewed, we can already guess that every celebrity looks fantastic for any holiday event because they are lucky enough to afford them. Can we blame them when they serve up some awesome looks? Nope, not really. Let’s hope they can keep it more interesting for more years to come.


A&E GUESS THE MOVIE QUOTE

The Last Song leaves a lasting impression

“Hope is a dangerous thing. Hope can drive a man insane.”

Last week’s quote: “Beetlejuice”

Did you know? “Toy Story 2” was almost completely deleted off of Pixar’s servers.

Info courtesy of Bestlifeonline.com

Krissy Turner Staff Writer kat5346@lockhaven.edu “The Last Song” is a classic movie about a brother and sister who go to a small town on the beach to stay with their father for the summer. The sister, Ronnie, is very resistent with her father because of their parents separating and her mother getting married again. She meets a guy on the beach that she falls in love with and she learns to rediscover her love of music. Little does she know that her father is ill. The cast consists of Miley Cyrus, Liam Hemsworth, Greg Kinnear, Bobby Coleman and Kelly Preston, and is directed by Julie Anne Robinson. It came out March 31, 2010. It is based off of the novel by Nicholas Sparks. I thought the cast did an amazing job of playing the characters because I could feel the emotions of the characters. There was a lot of drama, romance, and a little bit of comedy throughout. This movie is what sparked the very public relationship between Cyrus and Hemsworth.

I felt connected to the movie because I too have a love of music but I am not as confident to perform in front of audiences. I could definately could feel her rebellion as well because I was rebellious with my parents. I mean who has not been rebellious against their parents? Cyrus is known for doing movies and TV shows such as “Hannah Montana,” “LOL,” and “Bolt.” She was in a relationship with Hemsworth until August 10, 2019. Hemsworth is known for his role in the “Hunger Games” movies. He’s also the younger brother of Chris and Luke Hemsworth. Kinnear is known for doing movies such as “As Good as it Gets,” “Little Miss Sunshine,” “Bad News Bears,” and “Stuck on You.” Coleman is known for doing movies such as “Snowmen,” “Must Love Dogs,” and appearing on the 2008 version of “Knight Rider” and R. L. Stine’s “The Haunting Hour.”

Nov.07, 2019 Thanksgiving Traditions

Eric Sass Staff Writer exs8300@lockhaven.edu

Autumn is in full force while the year is winding down meaning Thanksgiving is near. There are so many creative activities one can do with their family and friends that show what we’re all thankful for.

Helping others: This is a great time to help out people who might not be as lucky as you. Volunteer to serve food or donate to shelters, or participate in canned food drives.

Craft creative tablecloths / place cards: Now this may be something new for a number of people. Ask everyone to write down what they’re thankful for on a DIY butcher-paper tablecloth. Name cards can make one feel special plus you won’t need to worry about where to sit.

The feast: If you prefer more traditional, stick with turkey, stuffing, gravy, sweet potatoes, cornbread, mashed potatoes and cranberry sauce. Who could forget the pie afterwards like apple, pecan, pumpkin, or sweet potato! If you feel like something new why not add or substitute something at least for a taste.

Split the wishbone: While this could appear weird, it’s actually an age-old tradition. Make a wish, pull it apart and whoever ends up with the larger piece of the bone gets their wish.

Travel: One of the best things is enjoying each others company. While heading out on the road to a relative or friends’ house, use this time to reflect and be together.

Pray for / bless the food: Even if you’ve decided to make your own tablecloth with writings of what you’re thankful for, why not express those thoughts through feelings verbally. Set up a kids’ table: Children should have their own little place. Giving them crayons or some kind of craft that will entertain them for hours. Go for a post-Thanksgiving walk: Before or even after your feast, venture outside. Host a family game night: If you didn’t quite get enough fun during the day, well, that changes at dusk! You can experience “Would You Rather” Questions and a scavenger hunt. Enjoy a DIY fall festival: You can bring the fall festival home with you. Ring toss around the pumpkin and many other games can develop from this unique idea. Don’t forget to have cool prizes too! TV: The New York City Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade is a popular one to watch or maybe you want to see a movie or football game.

A beautiful chain/crafts: This one is just neat all the way around! So each person receives strips of colored paper. They then write down what they are thankful for. Then go around the candle-lit table and take turns reading them out loud. Finally, we link our strips to form a chain! There are also a number of crafts you can make to add joy to this special day. Go for the gold: Having an olympics where you compete among each other but are out to have a good time just sounds like such an awesome idea! Any game or activity of your choice will work for this. Catching leaves: While huddled up together, when the wind starts blowing reach out and see how many leaves you can catch. If there seems to be a lack of wind, just drop some bags from somewhere high up like a tree house! These traditions are sure to form lasting memories between loved ones. Remember to spend time outside as a variety of locations are sure to make the day just that much more special!

Horoscopes

Aries Mar. 21- Apr. 19 Your audience will be attentive to you today. Take the lead and others will follow. Be yourself and project your voice into the auditorium of eager listeners. Information will flow freely, and you shouldn’t discount any ideas from the peanut gallery. Be open to questions and comments from others. Their participation is vital to your performance. Taurus Apr. 20- May 20 You could feel confident today, and you should have a strong idea of exactly what it is you want. Information is power. Others are working to wield power over you. Don’t let them get away with it, especially today. Encourage synergistic behavior among all parties. You can accomplish a great deal by working together instead of against one another. Gemini May 21- Jun. 20 Your mind will expand today. You’ll feel like there’s a ton of information crammed into your head that needs processing. Regarding big projects, try to finish them as quickly as you can. The best policy is to pace yourself. If you wait until the last minute to finish, the quality of your work will suffer. Make a plan and maybe even a timeline. Set small deadlines as you go along. Cancer Jun. 21- Jul. 22 Try not to read too much into other people’s words today. You may have spent hours tearing apart every off-the-cuff remark. You may build up a wild scenario in your head regarding what that person is thinking. Instead of trying to sneak up on the answer through the back door, try the direct approach. Simply ask your question. Leo Jul. 23- Aug. 22 Long-term trends are coming to an important climax now. This dramatic period is highlighted by the added amount of information being thrown your way. Try to make small adjustments to your direction that incorporate this new information. Be aware of the prevailing winds and your relationships will be much better off. Virgo Aug. 23- Sept. 22 Take a break from what you’re doing. Look at what people are doing around you. Check your plans in relation to those of others and see if there’s a way you can combine forces and kill more birds with fewer stones. Cooperation instead of competition is the lesson that needs to be emphasized today. The better you learn this today, the better off you’ll be tomorrow.

Libra Sept. 23- Oct. 22 Get involved with the energy of today so you don’t get left out of the loop. Your contribution to the group is important. You should foster positive relationships among all parties. Think big. You can do no wrong by expanding your mind out into the minds of others. Make a commitment to quench your thirst for knowledge and freedom through information. Scorpio Oct. 23- Nov. 21 You can add more tools to your toolbox today. Express your concerns and you’ll find helpful remedies present themselves. Keep the lines of communication open and let the information flow. There’s a great expansiveness that comes when you think for yourself - and think big. Don’t get bogged down with the emotional side of things. Concern yourself with the facts. Sagittarius Nov. 22- Dec. 21 Join others before you make your big travel plans. The smallest idea can be quickly transformed into a huge plan of attack, thanks to the prevailing winds of the day. There’s a light, communicative feeling in the air encouraging cooperation. If you find that people aren’t chiming into the group effort, you may want to excuse them from the group. Capricorn Dec. 22- Jan. 19 Don’t get stuck doing just one thing today. The more varied your activity, the easier it will be for you to integrate the different pieces of the puzzle. This is a day to think big. The more you know, the greater an asset you’ll be when it comes time to solve the biggest problems. Learn how to multitask effectively. Aquarius Jan. 20- Feb. 18 You might be in a whirlwind today, and there will be information buzzing around asking you to do this and go there. You’re the one most perfectly suited to deal with the tone of the day. Stay lively and upbeat. Don’t get stuck on any one thing. Keep the energy moving. The answer will be right there waiting for you. Pisces Feb. 19- Mar. 20 You might be jumping around today. This is one of those situations in which you don’t want to stay in one place for too long. Each place is an individual step that leads to where you want to go. Keep your eyes focused ahead and keep on going. Stagnating will leave you lost in the middle of nowhere.

Nov. 07, 2019 End of the semester already?

Cassandra Keller Managing Editor cmk2356@lockhaven.edu With all the work, activities, and events that have been keeping me busy, makes it really hard to believe that I’ve been back at LHU for over two months already. As cheesy as it sounds, it feels like only yesterday that I was moving back into the residence hall. Now here we are a week into November with only a little more than two weeks till Thanksgiving break. I’m sure I’m not the only one who feels like this semester has flown by, but I’m also sure there are some people who feel like it has dragged on. Either way, the end is almost here whether we’re ready for it or not. All our big projects are approaching their due dates and the dreaded finals week is on the horizon. While any student can lose their mind from the stress and pressure the end of the semester brings, now isn’t the time to break under it all. The end is approaching, but it isn’t here yet. Not happy with the grade you have right now in a class? There is still time to work hard to improve it. Your

professors are here to help you. All you have to do is meet them halfway and ask for the assistance you need to pass the class. Is there a club you want to join, but never got around to do so? Go talk to the club president. More often than not, they will be more than happy to have you on board for the rest of this semester and into next semester. Clubs are always looking for new people to help expand their own fun around campus. The end of the semester may be right around the corner, but now isn’t the time to give up, but instead the time to finish the semester strong and soar higher.

10 reasons Thanksgiving is important Mickiah Johnson Opinions Editor mrj2829@lockhaven.edu

1. Food- How often do we get a chance to gorge on so many delicious sides in one savory meal? Mashed potatoes and gravy, stuffing, mac and cheese, green bean casserole, cranberry sauce, and not to mention the entrees with your personal preference for turkey and ham. 2. Family- Thanksgiving is a good time to reconnect with family you haven’t seen in a while. Life is busy, why not have holiday to catch up with relatives. 3. Football- America’s true favorite passed-time, sorry baseball. 4. Giving Thanks- We’re always caught up in the chaos of life and it’s easy to feel like we aren’t getting everything we want or deserve. Thanksgiving provides a time to step back and be grateful for what we already have. 5. Thanksgiving Break- Enough said. 6. Social Markers- After Thanksgiving, Christmas lovers can start blasting their holiday music. 7. Black Friday- Participating is dangerous, but sometimes the sale is worth it. (Noteworthy Mention: Cyber Monday) 8. Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade- The pique Thanksgiving festivities. 9. Nap-ortinities- The opportinuty to take a nice long nap after eating. 10. A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving- It’s just all around iconic. What’s not to love about Charlie Brown movies?

Nov. 07, 2019 The problem with cancel culture

Tess English Online Manager tae7002@lockhaven.edu “Cancel Culture” is cancelled and here is why: For those unaware, Cancel Culture is the shunning or boycotting of person, brand, or company because of his, her, or its own controversial behaviors. These behaviors can be anything from decades ago to current times and can often in the form of accusations, regardless of the accuracy or context. Which might seem like a good idea in theory, but can end in two types of dilemmas: unintended consequences or lack of follow through. A great example of unintended consequences from Cancel Culture would be when Roseanne Barr’s show, “Roseanne” was literally cancelled after the backlash of an insensitive tweet. This tweet was about Valerie Jarrett, former White House advisor for president Obama as being the creation the Muslim brotherhood crossed with the hit movie “Planet of the Apes.” To be clear, in no way is the intent of this article to defend Roseanne’s actions regarding this scenario. It was stupid, bigoist, dumb, and uneccessary. Does Roseanne deserve to be out of work in her cushy television show centered around her? Yeah.

It’s not even the idea of punishing her for the ignorance, but after that kind of glib mistake a person needs time to be out of the limelight and see how that happened, what went wrong, and make the changes necessary to themselves to fix it. However, did the cast and crew deserve to be out of work because Roseanne had a sick tweet she wanted to post? Absolutely not. If the show was cancelled after the season was over giving other cast and crew members time to look for a job, it would not seem too unreasonable. Still, the show was cancelled within hours of the tweet leaving the workers as collateral to a situation they never volunteered to be apart. One could argue that life is unfair, but do we as a society need to contribute to the unfairness? No. Next it is important to remember that even with cancel culture’s best intentions of not supporting toxic mentalities, it doesn’t always work out. Sure, the public will probably not be seeing a lot of cancel culture “successes” such as Roseanne, Kevin Spacey, and Azealia Banks, but plenty of celebrities have beat their call for cancellation.

#23 Bald Eagles open seasons at Clarion Open, crown 2 champs Doug Spatafore

Returning national-qualifier Alex Klucker (Summerdale, Pa./East Pennsboro), ranked No. 31 (TrackWrestling) in the nation, went 4-0 and won the title at 157 pounds.

LOCK HAVEN, Pa. – On a chilly afternoon here in Lock Haven the action was hot on the field. The Lock Haven University women’s soccer team (3-10-2, 3-10-1 PSACE) fell to visiting East Stroudsburg (14-4, 11-3 PSACE) by a final score of 3-2. The first half had no shortage of action as there were four total goals. Two coming from ESU and two from LHU. The Warriors scored the first two goals of the game scoring in the 6th minute and the 21st minute respectively. The Bald Eagles would not go away. Just 10 seconds after the Warriors scored their second goal, Josie Swartz (Mifflintown, Pa./Junita) got the ball off the opening kick-off, sliced through the ESU defense for her third goal of the year. Just before halftime, Megan Ramaley (Aliquippa, Pa./ Hopewell) was able find the equalizer for the Bald Eagles. Haleigh Swam (West Minster, Md./ Winters Mill) fired the initial shot for Lock Haven that was blocked but it ended up finding the foot of Ramaley who finished the ball far post past the ESU keeper. The game remained knotted up for the majority of the second half with most of the action happening in the middle of the field. In the 78th minute of play ESU would take the lead for good off a goal from Jules Sicker. The defensive unit of Taylor Moritz (Harleysville, Pa./ Soudertown High), Erika Landis (Watsontown, Pa./ Warrior Run) and Chyanne Cook (Mountain Top, Pa./ Crestwood) stood tall to keep LHU in the game. Karly Trillhaase (Eatontown, Ny./ Monmouth Regional) finished the game with five saves which was good for a game high.

LAWRENCEVILLE, N.J. – The Lock Haven University field hockey team (11-7) extended its win streak to four games and closed the 2019 regular season with a 1-0 win today at Rider University (12-6) in non-conference action. The Bald Eagles will now turn their attention to the postseason as the 2019 Atlantic 10 Conference Tournament awaits. Today’s victory at Rider – LHU’s fourth straight win – was also Lock Haven’s four straight victory by way of shutout and it marked the Bald Eagles eighth overall shutout this season, as the defense continues to shine. The game was a tight one, but the Bald Eagles came out on top after the defensive unit proved too strong once again and LHU got a timely goal, which certainly helped edge out the hosts. Lock Haven’s goal came from MacKenzie Farley (East Berlin, Pa./Bermudian Springs). It was her fifth goal of the season and came in the 38th minute (37:02) of play off an assist from Jazmin Palma (Entre Rios Province, Argentina./Colegio Sagrado Corazon de Jesus). Standout goalkeeper Joaquina Orlandini (Concordia, Entre Rios, Argentina/San Antonio School) made three saves, as she pitched another shutout on the road. Next up for the Bald Eagles is the 2019 Atlantic 10 Conference Tournament. The Atlantic 10 Tournament is set for Friday and Saturday (November 8-9) at Richmond University. LHU will enter the postseason having won seven of its last eight games.
