Homecoming events end with crowning Peter Sansom Staff Writer

Royalty will soon be bowing and waving to the appreciative cheers of football fans as Palomar prepares to crown a new homecoming king and queen Saturday, Oct. 15.

The winners of the homecoming election held Oct. 12 and 13 will be announced during half-time festivities at San Marcos High School.

The Palomar football game against Mt San Antonio College starts at 1:30 p.m.

Applicants for homecoming king are Greg Armstrong, Jesse Arroyo, Iron Brayboy, Jr. II; Julia Crawford, Stephen Hough James H. Jackson, Tony Malizia, Daniel Offerman, Percell M. Paul, Michael Russell and Scott Teerlink.

Applicants for homecoming queen are Linda Allen, Reina Beacham, Julia Crawford, Laura Lacy, Maya Lomeli, Esmaralda Magana, DarleneL.Moore, Ellen Noonkester, Socorro G. Robles and Michelin Del Rosario.

Crawford is running for both king and queen. "I think students shouldn't be limited by gender as to the category they run under," said Crawford.

Following the game, the homecoming court will lead a parade from San Marcos High School to Palomar.

A dance is also planned in the Student Union following the parade.

Comet Week, a two day school spirit festivalheld0ct.l3and 14attheStudentUnion, led into the homecoming ceremony.

Attractions for the two day rally included clowns, a belly dancer, a human gyro machine, Palomar's cheerleaders, the Z-90 F.M. radio van and Polynesian dancers.

Rober Jenkins, Inter-Club Council chairman, said organizers of Comet Week tried to emphasize this year's homecoming theme of "People of the World" by having various campus clubs sponsor activities and booths.

ASG senator and social events VP resign Jeff Vize Staff Writer

Amidst controversy over the homecoming court application and inner conflict among the government, Associated Student Government members Kelly Lupro, vicepresident of social events, and Nathan Garcia, senator, announced their resignations last week.

"I feel like ASG is doing more harm than help for the students and I don't want to be a part of that." saidLuproafterherwithdrawal was announced Oct 5. "I feel like my efforts will be better used elsewhere."

Garcia, meanwhile, said heresigned for "personal reasons" and refused to comment further. His resignation is effective immediately.

Lupro' s goes into effect Oct. 17.

Lupro chaired the ASG's programming and publicity committee

that created controversy with this year's homecoming Court contest.

Garcia also sat on the programming and r;::;N::;;a::;::th::;;:a;..;;n=G""'a""'rc""'i=a publicity committee.

The original homecoming application asked contestants to specify from which "diverse group" they come from. Several suggestions dealing with ethnic background and physical handicap were listed, but applicants were also allowed to add their own.

According to Lupro, this was designed to compliment the homecoming theme of "People of the World."

Due to public disapproval from several students, as well as from ASG President Merril Tyler, the

committee reworked the application. The final draft was submitted Oct 3, with a portion of the new form inviting students to describe how their "participation will contribute to the theme of diversity."

Answering the question is listed as optional.

Lupro said that her resignation was necessary because of the continuing conflict within the ASG. "I feel like I'm having a constant fight upstream ... I have no support from the body," said Lupro. "I thought I was going to go in there and change things and really do some good. [Instead, theASGmembers} are still worried about personal agendas and private vendettas."

According to Lupro, there is a lack of teamwork within the ASG because of these personal battles.

This, she says, is the reason for ASG's shortfalls,

UC Davis plans to expand campus SACRAMENTO- As enrollment at California's state universities continues to climb, higher education officials in the UC system are searching for more classroom space to accommodate the steady influx of students.

Officials from the University of Cali~ fomia-Davis are close to an agreement that would expand building space, while the UC Board of Regents pursues plans to open a new campus in the San Joaquin Valley.

Although final plans for the expansion of the UC-Davis campus aren't as ambitious as those originally proposed, school officials have projected aneed for 1.75 million square feet of new buildings by 2005.

The new space will be needed to accommodate more students, say UC-Davis officials, who have plans to increase the student body to 26,000 in 2005 from its current enrollment of 21,000. Currently, campus building space covers 4.66 million feet.

Radio class conducts 'Real World Reporting' • Students stage mock accidents around campus Kate Nelson Campus Beat Editor

Campus Patrol officers didn't blink an eye, but some car owners were a little concerned when Palomar radio station KKSM adviser Rob Branch's introductory radioclass participated in "Real World Reporting" Sept. 29.

The Campus Patrol was warned in advance by Branch, but the rest of the campus was in the dark about what was going on.

Branch staged several incidents in order to give radio students experience in reporting news. The first incident occurred in staff parking Lot 4 and involved a suspect being stopped for drunk driving by a police officer. Cafeteria employees whose cars were parked near the scene came out after they saw the flashing red light on Branch's car.

Two radio students were dispatched to cover the story. The stu-

dents had to go to the scene of each incident, find out what happened, record the actors, edit the tape and write the copy in one hour.

Slobodan Gajic, who played the suspect in the first incident, said he thought people would see him getting pulled over and think he had really broken the law. "(There were) people that drove by and were asking me questions, like 'what's going on?' I'm sure they'll see me in the hall and say 'hey isn't that the guy who got pUlled over?'"

In another incident, Branch portrayedaman who witnessed a plane crash, while two other students played a police officer and an FBI agent. When questioned by reporters about the crash, Branch's character said, "God, these damn things are falling out of the sky like dead sparrows."

The grassy area in front of the KKSM studio was the location for another incident. A student told a

·

SWAT team public relations officer that a man had entered the classroom and was threatening students with a gun and a bomb.

Branch said he wanted to give the students some practice reporting so they wouldn' tmake mistakes later on. "(fhe purpose of the practice was to) get them away from shoving a microphone in a woman's face and saying, 'How does it feel now that your son's been run over by your stepfather?"' said Branch.

Nick Miller, who uses .the stage nameNickVelvetonhis '50s music radio show, gave assignments to reporters after the events began occurring and steered the students in the direction of the story.

When he was a student in the introductory radio class, he and a fellow reporter dreamed up a way to distract Branch, who was portraying a police officer in one of the scenarios. He suggested that one of

the reporters pretend to have an emergency medical situation.

"While you're having a heart attack... l'll go in and get the story, we'll beoutoftherein ten minutes," he said to his fellow reporter.

This would have worked, except

Branch thought the reporter was actually having a heart attack, and called Health Services. Miller said he thought it would be alright to fake the incident because Branch told the students to create a diversion to get the story.

HOMECOMING: 'People .of the World' theme promotes diversity Continued from Page 1 The festivities will provide fundraising and exposure for many of the clubs, explained Jenkins.

The "People of the World" theme produced mixed reactions among staff and students regarding the application to run for homecoming court. Organizers re-

ceived numerous negative comments regarding the application that asked participants to specify which "diverse group" they represent. The application then listed over 30 nationalities and groups for the applicant to choose from.

In response, the organizers made a new application which deleted the question asking candidates to state their cultural

background. The revised application asked candidiates to answer two optional questions, "What would living in a diverse multi-cultural world mean to you?" and "How will your participation contribute to the theme of diversity?"

"We knew it would be controversial when we did it, but, the idea that Palomar is a diverse campus means that it encom-

passes everything not just race," said Kelly Lupro, ASG vice-president of social events. "This is a good opportunity to promote and celebrate the diversity that exists at Palomar, which the average student doesn't notice."

Civic center heads for info-highway Diana Hooper .

Chad Rebmann Staff Writers

Technology was the main theme at the opening of the new San Marcos Civic Center, Sept 3. Participants, celebrated a positive forecast for the city's economy.

The meeting of high-tech specialists, held in the new council chambers, was highlighted by Dr. Arnie Hafner, president of Information Systems Research in San Diego. Hafner created Enterprise Consortium which is implementing some of President Clinton's plans for the transfer of defense money and technology into civilian information systems.

The Consortium has invited

Palomar College to participate in the $12 million worth of proposals for San Marcos, which includes the proposal to install the ftrst all optical network in the world.

"We have received the proposal and are presently reviewing it," said David Delacalzado, Palomar's DirectoroflnformationSystems. "We haven't invested or committed to it yet, but if we do it will lead to many changes."

"We want to focus national attention on San Marcos," explained Hafner. "To bring those investors to develop the information superhighway. The field is here and the dreamers are already beginning to open it up."

Among the dreamers that Hafner spoke of, who were present at the

Unplanned Pregnancy?

meeting were Dimension Cable, AT&T, Pacific Bell and IPITEK (Fiber optics) representatives. All of whom spoke about the information superhighway- the future wave of telecommunications.

"We already have connections with Dimension cable through channel 15 with our EfV programs," said Scott McClure, Palomar's supervisor of Systems and Programming.

"Dimension Cable is connected to the city. One day they'll all be together. The wires are there already. When the telephone industry acquires the rights to transmit video information and television receives the rights to transmit phone service then we'll all be connected with one another," explained McClure.

The condemned inmate is "likely" to suffer intense pain and is "likely" to be conscious from anywhere between 15 seconds to a minute. Well, maybe world peace is a "likely" possibility by the year 2000. Take a momentto think it over, it's just not logically sound.

But it's not right, it's cruel and unusual punishment, opponents of gassing say. Cruel to who? Cruel to Harris's victims Michael Baker and John Mayeski who are six feet under? Cruel to John's sister that wakes up

Or cruel to poor Robert Alton Harris? A supposed victim of society and circumstance that some say should of been let to die peacefully like some Kevorkian house call.

OPINION 7

Word to the Vize Jeff Vize

Caffeine Burnout As I was sitting early one morning in the Palomar library, a notable item caught my attention. Across from me sat a kid who, for seemingly no particular reason, had broken out into wild muscle spasms. Quite an odd sight, indeed, for a library.

In front of him on the table sat a textbook for welding class, a spiral notepad, and a pencil that had vibratedoutofhanddue to his seizure-like condition.

On the floor by his feet sat an empty plastic bottle emblazoned in black and gold.

Plain as day, the label read "Turbo Tea." Here was the culprit.

Before I get too far, let me enlighten those who perhaps have not had the opportunity to sample this "high energy drink." Turbo Tea is an iced tea beverage sold on the Palomar campus that boasts a content of "maximum strength caffeine." The going rate is $1.40 for 16 ounces and to avoid problems there are now warning labels on snack shop refrigerators carrying the item.

"What kind of problems" you ask? Let me explain. Each bottle of Turbo Tea explicitly reads, "Individuals sensitive to caffeine should avoid this drink."

This is a good start, but a more appropriate caution would be, "Individuals who want to sleep this week should avoid this drink."

Trust me, I know.

My ftrst experience with this ftrewater was not exactly what I would call joyous.

I must admit, for the first few hours, it wasn't too bad. I had actually attained complete numbness below the waist from the ingestion of a 100% legal substance ... Amazing! All day, I sprung around campus like a monkey in heat. "Wow," I thought; "Who needs food? I have Turbo Tea!" But the euphoria didn't last for long.

Once I realized that this high was going to carry me well into the evening, I began to panic. I went home, did my homework, and then proceeded to mow the lawn, trim the azaleas, and paint the fence. All in the dark.

I was now beyond human. By attaching electrodes to my nipples you could've solved the energy crisis.

Over the next two days, every thought was dominated by the question, "will I ever sleep again?"

Finally, I fell into an 18-hour sleep. I awoke on Sunday dazed. I had just wanted to get through that one day of school without falling asleep. Turbo Tea instead got me through the next three days.

While underaged partygoers unable to purchase alcohol may want to consider Turbo Tea as a viable alternative, I can't recommend it to the average person. Unless you are looking to kick a serious problem with methamphetamines, this is not the stuff for you.

Is using the gas chamber cruel and unusual punishment, and therefore unconstitutional?

you are never given any reason for your appeal being denied you have to assume a reason. Who knows? You are given a phone number, for any question, yet no one will answer them. You are made out to be a malcontent, simply by asking for facts.

Let's break down the Palomar College parking citation process. First, you receive a parking ticket, you are given an opportunity to appeal your citation with the Campus Patrol. The persons who make this decision are the same people who issue your citation!

If a student wants to contest a ticket they must pay in addition to the citation (mine was $20,) an additional $12.50 to have an administrative review by written declaration, or $22.50 for an administrative review by personal conference, or for an additional $25 they can have an adjudication by judicial proceeding in a San Diego Municipal (Civil) Court. This system sounds like it was written for Monty Hall's "Let's Make a Deal!" It makes it sound like the more money you wish to contest, the better your chances are. Let's face the facts, Palomar College doesn't want you to contest your citations, and has set up a system which discourages students to stand up for their rights.

Palomar College is for the benefit of all students, not just the ones learning how to become law officers. And what about better traffic control?

Maybe cars wouldn't be stolen from Palomar's parking lots if the Campus Patrol made it's number one priority patrolling the parking lots looking for the bad guys, rather than issuing far too many citations to good students for minor parking infractions.

I did park where I was not supposed to park. My choice was to pay the ticket and not gamble on "Let's Make a Deal!" I've learned my lesson, I've seen ftrs t hand how the Palomar blind justice system works.

MOVIE REVIEW

Staff Cartoonist

A young film director storms off the set after an argument with his producer over creative differences.

Although this is common in Hollywood today, this particular episode has two distinct differences.

First, it takes place in the early 1950s. Second, this director deals with problems by dressing in Angora sweaters. He is Ed Wood, the subject of Tim Burton's latest fllm.

"Ed Wood" is the true story of a transvestite who tried to make it big as a Hollywood director in the early 1950s.. Failing miserably, Wood managed to complete some of the worst films ever to grace the planet Earth.

In theearly '80s, Edward D. Wood Jr. was voted the ''Worst Film Director of All Time" and the film he believed to be his finest, "Plan 9 From Outer Space," was voted "The Worst Film of All Time" by a society devoted bad films.

Neither award has ever been challenged.

SOMA Live showcased five bands for the Independent Music Seminar (IMS) Saturday, Oct. 8.

Seven dollars and three and a half hours later the dust settled to reveal Buck-0-Nine as the most favored and enthusiastic band.

SOMA Live is a large, drab warehouse lit up with blacklights, where patrons can see some of San Diego's hottest up and coming bands for a minimal amount of cash.

First-time SOMA attenders should be smart and snag the cornerrail by the bathrooms as itmakes for an excellent view of the crowd and bands. Sometimes it becomes confusing as to which one is more entertaining, soplanaheadand take itall in with this strategic position.

The first band, Freakshow, was loud and a bit repetitive, but they did deliver with some heavy guitars and screaming vocals that would have satisfied most thrash fans. The crowd seemed entertained and the occasional chant of "Freakshow!" showed they had some hard core fans.

The next band, Mayhem, a punk style band that is similar to Pennywise, played a burning set of punk riffs that was nicely contrasted by a short reggae interlude. If you are someone that's into that local punk bandkinda thing, then it would have been an enjoyable set, but for the rest of us it was an earache.

The third band that played was Excel and they put on the best show of the first three. The lead singer

gave an emotional performance as he jumped around the stage to the sinuous offerings of the guitarist. In other words, it was obvious that these guys had some talent. They put on a good performance, but it would have been better if the first song didn't sound like the last song and all the songs in between.

The next band to take the stage was Ghoulspoon, a heavy band fueled by two guitars and a killer singer to boot.

The crowd probably would have enjoyedtheshowmoreiftheyhadn't already been burned out by the three previous bands; however, the band certainly got everyone excited and the crowd grew more enthusiastic and rowdy toward the end of their set. It looks like this is definitely a band with a future.

The ftfth and fmal band to take the stage was Buck-o-Nine, a ska band with spots of punk and jazz thrown in. The entire crowd surged to the funky rhythm of this band as they merged horns, guitar and vocals into an irresistible display of showmanship.

The band, coming back from a national tour, held the receptive crowd in its entertaining hands for around 40 minutes. It would be a good idea to check this unique band out someday before they get too big and famous.

Overall, the night went fairly well as concerts go. Band members were actually visible without binoculars, the parking lot wasn't a confusing labyrinth of cars and the tickets didn't require monthly payment plans.

Sabbath tribute a worthy effort , Chris Gleason

CD REVIEW

Sports Editor

John Conzemius Opinion Editor

Vocalist John "Ozzy" Osbourne learned to sing in his church choir, but gave up his piousness to form a British blues band called Earth. This band eventually evolved into Black Sabbath to reflect the band members' interest in the occult.

Mirroring the real horrors of the Vietnam War, Sabbath came on the scene as a band laden with anger, violence and a sinister pessimism.

Over 25 years after the formation of the original band, 12 artists ranging from the well-known Megadeth to the obscure (if not shamefullypoliticallycorrect) 1,000 Homo Dj's to Osbourne himself collaborated on a cover-album titled "Nativity in Black: A Tribute to

Various Artists "Nativity in Black" Columbia Records

****

Black Sabbath."

Usual cover-album rhetoric notwithstanding (that the original is always best), most of the bands handle the ~ongs competently.

Megadeth' s rendition of"Paranoid" not only pays tribute to the original tune, but adds to it. Modem recording technology and effects gave Megadeth the opportunity to stretch the song to its limits.

Osbourne(wfTherapy)paystribute to his old compatriots by covering his own immortal "Iron Man,"

yet does not take any risks in expanding on the song, giving it a near-cartx>n copy of the original.

Sabbath's brilliantanti-war statement "War Pigs" is intentionally mishandled by Faith No More in a live recording. Faith No More's mocking rendition stands out as an almostsacreligious parody since the album is supposed to be a tribute.

In spite of this, the album pays sufficient respect to the band that really led the heavy-metal revolution and will be a welcome offering to anyone who bas ever admired the mighty Sabbath.

ED WOOD: Awful movie direcwr's life makes agreat film Continued from Page 8 actors could handle. But throughout the fllm, Depp retains that little bit of ineptness that is so apparent in all of the real Ed Wood films.

Likewise, Martin Landau as aging horror star Bela Lugosi and George "The Animal" Steele as Swedish wrestler turned actor were brilliant casting choices.

Landau, under layers of prosthetic makeup, brings to the role

what only a veteran of fllm and stage could: believability. And Steele was born to play bald, hulking Tor Johnson, a man whose main claim to fame is being the inspiration for a Halloween mask.

I liked ''Ed Wood." But I knew who Ed Wood was and have seen ¡ some of his movies. I myself, a lowbudget director, have experienced many of the same things that he did (except the cross dressing).

Possibly this background made me a biased observer.

So, to be fair, this fllm deserves two ratings. I give it four stars for fans of bad movies or people that know who Ed Wood was. From this standpoint, it is a good fllm. But one star might be more applicable to the general audiences.

But, just like Wood's real movies, I think "Ed Wood" will become a cult classic in the near future.

Just like tattooing, body piercing is restricted by law to individuals 18 or over.

Because of the possible danger of AIDS or hepatitis infection from using non-sterilized equipment, health experts caution against uncertain home-made body art.

Palomar Head Nurse Lisa Howard said body piercing and tattooing have risks. She said recipients may expose themselves to severe skin infections and hepatitis B, a hidden illness that has bacterial, fungal and viral symptoms. Hepatitis B can also affect tile liver, causing liver cancer.

"People need to be aware of the cosmetic

procedure," Howard said. "They need to handle the risk factor and ask why they need it done."

Professional tattoo artists and body piercers use rubber gloves, fresh, sterile needles and are familiar with the human anatomy.

"A strong reaction can occur if you're using the wrong kind of jewelry," according to Laura Sutherland who works for an adult bookstore called The Crypt. "The body can push out the metal if it's the wrong size."

Also, there is a risk of piercing a vein or blood vessel.

Sutherland attributes the piercing popularity to the punk music scene.

"In the late '70s to the early '80s, [people] pierced more on their body and face," she said. She thinks young people who get their eyebrow or noses pierced have a kind of rebellion against parents. "It's so blatant-an 'in your face' kind of thing.'

Chris Gleason I'm only 21 years old. I'm not supposed to be feeling nostalgic yet.

On the evenings of Oct. 6 and 7, KFMB radio rebroadcast games four and five of the 1984 National League Championship Series.

You know the series. Padres vs. Cubs. Steve Garvey, Graig Nettles and the new, young batting champ Tony Gwynn vs. Ryne Sandberg, Leon "Bull"Durbam and Cy Young Award winner Rick Sutcliffe.

Yeah, that's right. The year the Padres were good.

The anticipation that year in the city was incredible. I remember looking around town and seeing countless Padres caps and T -shirts.

Stuff you cannot even give away any more.

Weird things happened that season. The Padres somehow would find ways to win games, corning from behind by three runs or more in the ninth inning on several occasions.

Kevin McReynolds hit a second-deck home run. It was also the year of the famous brawl in Atlanta, a brawl which became so brutal that some of the fans got involved.

It was a year in which the citizens of a second-rate metropolis, who for years had suffered through some of the worst professional baseball in the history of the planet, got to experience the warmth of the spotlight of the world.

Mike Royko, a columnist for the Chicago Greg Skinner I The Tekscope Tribune, wrote that he saw no need to come out to San Diego to watch games three, four Palomar's Amanda Stinson (14) attempts to block a San Diego Mesa attack. and five of the NLCS, because it would be f I over in just one more game and his precious Cubswouldbethevictors.Healsowrotethat San Diego does not even deserve a championship-caliber team because we don't suffer enough during the winter.

"We bad .•• some CloSe matches we sbould have won. We're a little bit lx!tter team than we showed," said Palomar head coach Joe Isxmty.

Moorpark had its largest lead of the night at that point, 19-12.

Fighting back, Raiders' lanky 126pounder Pejman Daneshnia defeeated CometAldo Broussard 6-4.

Palomar took its largest lead of the night (12-3 team) with two consecutive victories by Jon Hall and Ernest Espinoza, but Moorpark battled back and took the next five matches beginning their rapid erosion of Palomar's lead.

Raider Tim Bonebright wrestled Comet Robert North to a 4-4 tie at the end of the third round of their match, but Bonebright was ahead in riding time and came up Victorious.

The next two matches were closer, with Jeremy Pratt beating Comet substitute-167-pounder Craig Welk 1-3 and Raider 177-pounder Dan Burdis shutting out Comet John Brackett 1-0.

In the battle of the heavyweights, Palomar's Kaudi Wakegijig wrestled the 275-pound MarkSrnith.
