The last thing you’d expect to see on campus is a set of students dressed in military garb running drills. CNU’s Army ROTC program spent Wednesday, Jan. 24 running drills as part of their lab requirement in the program. W h i le CN U st udent s a r e aware of the ROTC program, few get to see what the members of the program do. This inside look at their lab class showed students what d ri l l s looke d l i ke, such a s cadets throwing themselves on the ground in defensive maneuvers in a military exercise. Students pa r ticipati ng i n this program were taking a military science class and the lab portion was their way of putting their knowledge to use in a hands-on manner. Junior Joel Crofford states that the day starts for an ROTC member at 0550 or 5: 50 a.m. with physical therapy (PT), followed by breakfast for the ones who don’t have class at 8 a.m. Crofford says he enjoys some of t he sm a l ler event s t h at ROTC holds, such as ‘bring a friend to PT day’ which he says is “always a good time.� His classmate sophomore Eric Svendsen explains that there is a military science class t hey t a ke on T uesdays a nd Thursdays as well as the lab on Wednesday. T his exercise is i ncluded within the ordinary everyday classes and activities that the cadets take part in. Many cadets involve themselves in extracurricular activities on top of completing their busy ROTC schedules. The ROTC program at CNU is a community of people with a desire to fight and protect our country. The cadets in ROTC describe it as a family. “My favorite t hi ng about ROTC has to be building these memories with these guys and girls, it has only been a semester and a few weeks but we have made some great memories and had a lot of fun.� said freshman Peter Almanza. A lmanza has a passion to continue to improve and grow in the ROTC program. He talks about some of the skills that the ROTC program teaches here at CNU. P u nc t u a l it y, f it ne s s a nd teamwork are just some of the things needed to succeed in ROTC and Almanza says he is learning them all. These aren’t the ordinary

things you wou ld lea r n about i n college but in the ROTC program this is exactly what they emphasize and stress. Almanza is enjoy i n g h i s experience in RO T C a nd is learning as much a s he c a n. He says one d ay t h at he would like to be an officer in the Army. Svendsen echoes the feeling of family a n d c o m mu nity. He says that is favorite part of being in ROTC is the sense of camaraderie. He goes on to say, “Knowing that the guys I’m hangi ng out w it h a r e d oi n g R O T C a n d a l w a y s LafY Halle]j hj]hYj]k lg \jgh Yk hYjl g^ l`] ljYafaf_ ]p]j[ak] af l`] dYZ [dYkk& H@GLGK :Q =EE9 <APGF'L@= ;9HL9AFĂŒK DG? have my back is the best feeling.â€?

A popular stereotype among CN U’s student population is that residents of Santoro Hall have a far greater number of CHECS violations than those from York River Halls, as well as anywhere else on campus. The numbers disagree. W hi le freshmen do get reported to CHECS three times more often than any other class according to a report from the university, Santoro and York have almost the same number of violations per student. Potomac seems to be the hot spot for infractions according to the report. With a violation

rate almost twice as high as any other residence hall, Potomac residents seem to get in the most trouble. Warwick, on the other hand, has had only eight people reported to CHECS during all of last semester. T he s e nu mb er s m ay b e surprising to the individuals reading the report. Popular st udent opi n ion wou ld s ay that Warwick doesn’t rack up violations because they have a greater number of Honors and President’s Leadership Pro gram (PLP) students. I f students in Honors and PLP were less likely to violate t he St udent H a ndb o ok due to fear of losing scholarship funds, then Santoro Hall, which

is not typically full of Honors and PLP students, would have a violation rate much higher than York’s violation rate since York is frequently populated by students in these two university-wide programs. It seems hard to isolate any si ng le c ause for Wa r wick’s lower violation rate as compared to other dorms. Potomac’s numbers are also seemingly inexplicable in relation to other residence halls. Si nc e P o t o m a c h a s b o t h freshmen and sophomores — a nd u nderclassmen tend to commit more rule violations— it makes sense for them to have a somewh at h i g h viol at ion rate, but not for them to have

a violation rate almost twice that of York and Santoro, other underclassmen housing. One reason for their mysteriously high violation rate might be the common rooms. York and Santoro don’t have them, so if a group of freshmen are looking for some place to violate campus rules— such as drinking in residence halls — then Potomac might seem like a good place to do it. W hy d o s o m e r e s i d e n c e halls seem to have more rule violations than others? Again, where you stick freshmen is typically the main factor. Freshmen had more violations last semester, with an even 200 more, than all of the

other classes combined according to the report. That means that there is a rate of one violation for every 6.45 freshman. The older the students are, the less likely it is that they will be reported to CHECS. A number of factors likely cause t he dispa rate i mpact o f C H E C S v iol at ion s . S t u dents lea r n t he r u les more thoroughly as times goes on through their years at CNU, students could mature, or a it could be a combination of both. By t he t i me st udent s h it senior year, their violation rate drops down to nearly zero. Seniors, who c a n live of f campus, have an especially low violation rate. n

As we start to get more and more into the semester, I can fe el my motivation l a g g i n g and I’m losing sight of the end goal. I’m sure I’m not the only person who feels like this, so I thought I’d share some things I do to help myself stay motivated and on track, even when I just wanna say screw it and turn off all my alarms every morning.

Hello CNU, I have a painful bruise on my leg because I’m blind and I keep walking into cigarette pots that people keep putting in the middle of the walkway. While I understand that helping people manage their addictions by bruising the legs of innocent blind people isn’t your intention, and that people throwing their disgusting cancer sticks on the ground would be some pretty horrific and hazardous littering, I’m really tired of having bruised legs. Am I crazy? Are these pots not, in addition to being both a receptacle which encourages the development of lung cancer and nicotine addictions in young people, also a dangerous source of potential injury for careless students with visual impairments, not to mention anybody looking at a phone, looking behind them, with dust in their eye or even just trying to make out some of the quite funny doodles which show up on the glass of doors when they fog up. I don’t honestly even understand why a cigarette pot is positioned in front of my building, Madison, at the central entryway, because there aren’t benches out there. Do we really have so many upperclassmen chain smoking right outside the apartment buildings that we need cigarette pots placed at every entryway, regardless of whether or not there’s even enough room for more than one or two people to stand? I guess what I mostly am trying to say is that my leg hurts, and I don’t appreciate something that doesn’t quite seem to make any sense, especially since smoking is so bad for you, and for my leg. Is there any way we could have heavier receptacles, or fix them into the ground with some good old cement, or just not have one in the central walkways so that people stop putting them in front of the doors? I don’t mind if people indulge their self-destructive habits, I just wish they would do it in ways that don’t also make me wonder if every time I bruise that spot, there’s a tiny little piece of my bone compressing, and eventually my leg is just going to be as thin as a matchstick, and then what am I going to do? Use my leg as kindling? That would be kind of pointless, considering I need to walk around and stuff. A ny ways , thanks for listening. This was rather therapeutic, and I really do sincerely hope t h at s o m e b o dy takes this seriously and actually does some thing because my leg hurts a lot.

Stay on top of your work for the week. I know that’s a no brainer, but if you start to fall too far behind, there’s just going to be a perpetual cycle of you rushing to get something done H@GLG ;GMJL=KQ G> ;DAH9JL DA:J9JQ and missing something else in order to do it. If you strive to stay on top of everything, you shouldn’t be too overwhelmed near midterm time and again after when things start rolling full time. To relieve stress during the day and help your focus become clearer, try going to the gym. I know this sounds like something awful, but even 30-60 minutes of exercise can help clear your mind, help you sleep better at night and help you keep a positive outlook on things. As the great Elle Woods once said, “Exercise gives you endorphins. Endorphins make you happy. Happy people just don’t shoot their husbands, they just don’t.� Except, you know, swapping out the latter for something more relevant. Finally, take time to reward yourself for a job well done. Yes, college is about classes and getting all your work done, but you need a break once in a while. Once you’ve managed to check some things off your to-do list, take a break. Go for a walk, watch an episode of The Office, get a muffin from Einstein’s; whatever makes you happy, do it.

I’m a second semester freshman and I just don’t feel like I found where I belong. Any ideas on what to do to find my place at CNU? I think we’ve all felt like this at some point in our time at CNU. Some people only take a few days to adjust to college and this environment and find their niche immediately. Some people take a few weeks, and other people take months. It’s okay to not feel like you know what you want to do or who you want to make “your people� right away, and it’s definitely okay to not know at this point. My best advice for this is to put yourself out there more. Strike up conversations with people in your class; you’d be surprised how well that can go. We’re at the point of the semester where people are warming up and not so standoffish. If it’s a class you really enjoy, that could be something you two have in common. Go to the club fair and find a new club that interests you. If you’ve tried that, try something that you probably never thought you’d see yourself in. Time is going by quick while you’re at CNU, surprise yourself and make a new name for yourself. You aren’t bound by who you were in high school, that’s the beauty of it all.

Best, Tyler

If you feel like that’s not working, talk to your RA. They’re trained in things pertaining to this. I relied heavily on my freshman year RA and she ended up becoming a really great friend to me. Don’t be afraid to put yourself out there, that’s the only way you’re going to figure it out. Good luck!

If you ever want to relax, stretch, or strengthen yourself, yoga should be the first thing that comes to mind. Yoga is a Hindu spiritual and ascetic discipline, part of which includes breath control, simple meditation and the adoption of specific bodily postures. Being a yoga instructor requires serious patience, knowledge and strength, and that’s exactly what Christopher Newport’s Associate Professor of Communications Dr. Danielle Stern possesses. Stern currently teaches a cultural studies class at CNU while also teaching a senior seminar class. She says she loves teaching because the feeling of shaping the minds of younger people in the world is a great feeling. She also says that the life-long learning process that occurs while teaching and learning is cool to watch and experience. Stern has been teaching for approximately 15 years. In 2001, Stern went to her first ever yoga class and immediately fell in love with the art.

She originally was looking to relieve Yoga is usually meant for relaxation stress because of graduate school, but and peace, but at times, it requires a lot once she realized she had a passion for of strength. yo g a , s he Stern went started on to explain to at tend t h at i f you classes do not come r e g u l a rly prepared and ended to classes, up becomit c a n b e a ing an hard process instructor. b e c au s e of 15 years the strength later, Stern requirement. is still A lt h o u g h ;GEEMFA;9LAGF KLM<A=K doing what teaching as a she loves. professor of HJG>=KKGJ <9FA=DD= KL=JF She is communicaalso on her tion studies third year is her main a s a yoga p r io r it y, instructor.

Every class that Stern hosts is either free or donation-based, and each one of these classes are hosted in cool outdoor spaces like a local business spot, or near a landmark. The classes also tend to have beautiful views and tons of cool people. One would think that balancing two careers that require a lot of time would be very tough, but according to Stern, balancing teaching and instructing has not been much of a challenge for her. Stern usually instructs a yoga class twice a week because she does not want yoga to interfere with her number one priority, which is teaching. “I am grateful to have a f lexible schedule to teach yoga while also continuing my academic teaching and research. “Although it can be hard balancing my time and energy, because I teach about inclusivity and social justice in both my academic and yogi life, that balance isn’t as difficult as it could be� says Stern. She loves hosting yoga classes and teaching at CNU, so if she gets to do both, she is happy. n

The Christopher Newport University Men’s Basketball player, Aaron McFarland, has been an integral part of the team since his freshman year. Aaron McFarland is a senior from Richmond, Va. He is six feet tall and a

point guard for the Captains. McFarland has been a player all four years here at CNU. During his freshman year, McFarland played in all 28 games and started in 10 of those. He was successful as a young member on the team averaging about 10 points a game. In his sophomore year, he was First

Tea m A l l- Con ference, na med CAC Player of the Week once and was ranked second on the team in scoring, averaging 14 points a game. Again, he made appearances in all of the games as the team traveled to the NCAA semi-finals that year. McFarland was always interested in sports, but basketball has stuck with him from a young age. “I started playing basketball when I was around three, my mom she just constantly put me in sports and I guess she saw I g ravitated more towards basketball than any other sport,� says McFarland. “I remember vividly as a kid in the house I would always have a basketball and my dad would make a hoop with his arms and every time I would score through his arms he would get so happy and in turn I would get so happy.� Basketball has been something so special to him and playing at CNU has provided an amazing college experience. “The team has taken a 360 since I have been here. When I was a freshman we only had one senior, so we were a young team and we were just learning so much every time we got on the court,� says McFarland. That year the team made it to the CAC Championship and lost by one point in the final seven seconds. Last year, as a junior, he was Second Team All-Conference, ranked third in scoring on the team, and was one of the leading three-point shooters on the team making him a big threat to their opponents. He was very successful at the free throw line as he was 87 percent for foul shots. He led the team into NCAA play last year, the second year in a row the

team has gone to the national tournament. This team has made many successful runs into the postseason. “The next year, my sophomore year, we made our historical Final Four run which was incredible.� says McFarland. McFarland says that the team has really come full circle because now, once again, there are only three seniors on the team, so they have a young team and are doing a lot of learning as they continue their season. “We are back to having a young team with seven freshmen, and pretty much all of them play and we are just trying to make sure that those guys learn so much, so we can do more damage in the NCAA tournament,� says McFarland. There are so many things that make this team unique. “My favorite part about this team is that it is an adventure every day,� says McFarland. “We have to learn how to lead every day and that’s the most exciting part, it’s a challenge every day.� Within four years McFarland has gained another family with the team. One of his favorite memories was senior night his sophomore year. Ben Walker, who had been out with a concussion for two and a half years was cleared his senior night, he made a steal and dunked the ball. “Everybody was just so happy because it was like ‘here he is back’,� says McFarland. McFarland is preparing himself for the rest of the season mentally and physically. He is ready to lead his team back to the NCAA tournament this year and hoping for a successful rest of their season. “I really think our team can be dangerous,� says McFarland. n

In the cool nighttime air I quietly sat alone and tied my shoelaces, making sure each loop was an equal length from the middle. Head down, still enthralled in the perfection of my laces I hear the sound of crunching leaves next to me, each step louder and more menacing than the last. The crunching eventually stops and I look up to see my track coach looking down on me expectantly. His slender physique and old age made it only more apparent how afraid I was of disappointing this man. The man who constantly yelled at me for slacking off in practice, or running two seconds slower than I could have, or eating unhealthy foods at lunch. This was all undoubtedly because he wanted me to be the best athlete I could, but to me it was because he was pure evil. He raised an eyebrow as I looked at him and began to question me. “Why aren’t you getting ready for the race kid? You got something wrong?�

“No sir,� I replied failing to avoid his piercing gaze, “I’m ready to go just waiting for the race to start.� “Gooood,� he replied, “believe it or not we need you boys to win this race to qualify.� Those were the words I knew were coming, but couldn’t bare to hear. The pressure mounted as my coach spoke “words of encouragement,� but I didn’t hear a word he said. All I picked up was the tone of his voice, an angry but enthusiastic, confident voice. He knew we weren’t going to succeed unless I ran well as the anchor, and he knew that was a big if. I could hear my heart pounding. Suddenly, as if no time passed at all, it was my turn to run. The next thing I knew I had crossed the line, in first, the only relay I ever won. What ensued was 24 hours of non-stop praise from my teammates for something I wasn’t completely sure I knew how I did. I ran faster than I ever had before or ever would again. I felt on top of the world for those

24 hours only to realize I had an even bigger task ahead of me. As it turned out our rival high school had just run the same relay at a different meet faster than we had. This began a period of incredibly hard work. I remember each and every painful step I took while running up stairs. I remember ever y single d rop of sweat that ran down my face. I remember every single slightly abusive word our coach yelled at us in his raspy and gravelly voice as I proceeded to lead our relay team down a spiral of lazy and sub par practices as was par for the course on our track team. A nd most i mpor t a nt ly, I k now I couldn’t have done it without my teammates. T h i s phenomenon i s c ompletely unique to runners. As any athlete will note, running is usually the most hated portion of exercise. While this is usually the case, running is also one of the most important parts of an exercise routine. Running can keep a healthy balance between all muscles in your body while also strengthening your heart by increasing your overall cardio and stamina. Yet even knowing this as athletes, and in particular runners, we all managed to avoid running with little breaks

whenever possible. This just happened to be the perfect dynamic for us and helped us form a bond with each other. Some of my best friends from high school ran track with me. We were such a close-knit group and we all seemed to share one thing in common: a mutual love/hate relationship with running. I notice it with all groups of runners; they don’t really want to run, but each individual in the group motivates them to run and exercise as a group. Even as I promoted a culture of taking breaks every five or so minutes, much to the disdain of my former track coach, I can guarantee that without track it was more running than I ever would have done otherwise. This is why I believe it is crucial to find a group to run in. They will help you find ways to grind out those tough days of running and make you continue on. They will show you ways to push forward and improve your health and your own body image. Most importantly they will make running fun and keep you coming back for more. Running is treated like a disease and while it might make you feel like crap at times, I promise it’s actually good for you. So go out and run with some friends. Who knows, you might actually enjoy it. n

The harp’s graceful elegance came alive on Saturday, January 27th, in the Ferguson Center as Christopher Newport University’s second annual Harp Festival brought students and community members together. Featuring many variations of the unique string instrument, community, students, and faculty alike were able to celebrate their talent, and learn some skills along the way. Events included Celtic and Venezuelan workshops, along with a masterclass and a concert. Harpers and harpists with all years and months of experience awaited the individual events, including harp student and High School senior, Julia Swanner. “I’m def initely excited about the Venezuelan workshop,” Swanner said. “That’s something you don’t get to see very often.” A more traditional event included the Celtic workshop, lead by Celtic harper Sue Richards. With forty years of experience, she led a group of Norfolk students in an Irish tune called “Cooley’s Slide.” Besides introducing a new tune, Richard’s workshop taught the various techniques of Celtic harpers. “We did a bunch of exercises aimed at getting the right rhythm and weight of Irish music,” Richards says. Of the fifty attendees, CNU Freshman Danielle Caldwell performed Tchaikovsky’s Waltz of the Flowers for the Masterclass event.

Caldwell is the sole CN U student majoring in harp, drawing from five years of experience and performance at venues such as Carnegie Hall, the White House and the Kennedy Center. During her time in college, she hopes to gain “more experience at teaching,” along with more refined orchestra and solo techniques. Aside from teaching technique and theory, t h e C N U Mu s i c Department aimed to celebrate a nd foster interest in music through the festival. “We just hope to i nspi re love a nd appr e ci at ion for music as a whole,” CNU Harp Professor Anastasia Pike says. This goal, according to Pike, is shared by the depar tment in their wide range o f c onc e r t s a n d performances held at t he Fer g u son facility. “You can just walk over there and hear these amazing concerts,” Pike says. “You don’t have to go to New York or Berlin, they come to you.” Attaining a widespread appeal was among the goals for the Harp Festival: “we want to bring people that are not

familiar with the harp into a context where they feel comfortable and hopefully inspire some other musical adventures outside of what they may be used to,” Pike says. An enthusiast for harp herself, Pike appreciates the versatility and uniqueness of the instrument. “I like the range of capabi lities of t h e h a r p ,” P i k e says. “ It s ver y peaceful and soothing but it can also be extremely modern.” S w a n n e r expressed similar sentiments. “It’s very calming and very relaxi n g ,” S w a n n e r says. A lthough the music can be aweinspi ring, the instrument itsel f has its setbacks. “ It s hu ge a nd heavy,” Pike says, referencing the difficulty in transp or t i n g such a n instrument. “And I don’t like tuning my harp, because there’s 47 strings and you have to tune every single one.” Although the anatomy of a harp is unknown to most, woodsmith and businessman Alex Marini is well acquainted with the various designs, upkeep and styles of harp. Since 1995, Marini has

“We want to bring people that are not familiar with the harp into a context where they feel comfortable” — Dr. Anastasia Pike—

designed his own harps and sold them through his business, Marini Made Harps. A variety of his pieces were displayed at the Harp Festival. Marini’s story began with a desire for his children to learn harp. Unable to buy one, Marini made his own with a set of blueprints. “I had so much fun making the first one, I just had to make some more,” Marini says. Son Tony Marini contributes to the business as well. “It’s been a neat family business,” Tony M a r i n i s ays . “ My d ad love s woodworking and is really passionate about it.” W hile many play the harp simply to entertain others, Marini explained how they can truly provide comfort and bring beauty into lives of hardship. “L ots of ou r customers… play i n churches and nursing homes and a lot of them work with a hospice,” Marini says. “We’re very blessed to see that.” Elaborating on the versatility of the harp, Pike noted that the harp has a place in sacred settings. “You can play harp at a sacred setting in church, Pike says. “I’ve played for funerals, and Arlington National Cemetery, and it’s very peaceful.” Inspiring a love for harp, teaching its speci f ic techniques, and ad mi ri ng t he ha nd sma nship t hat go es into the creation of the instrument, CN U’s Harp Festival had something for every member of the community. The annual event is set to return the Spring Semester of 2019. n

Bob Roth’s latest is a broken see-saw. Never venturing far enough into either genre he hopes to emulate, his work

leaves its audience sitting still, albeit very informed. “OMG The Things I Learned in College” is a novel approach to giving advice. Told through a narrative, the story follows two freshman college radio

show hosts as they struggle through their own first year while giving advice to their listeners through their radio show. This take on giving advice is a relatable and enjoyable way to break through what could be seen as a lecture. Adding this human element to the giving of advice makes the advice easier to hear and to come back to. Or it would if it fully allowed itself to be a narrative. The novel consistently forgets its own characters. For one chapter, a character is homeless and it is never mentioned again. The opening chapter mentions a character riding a motorcycle into another country, an event that also is never mentioned again, then later he struggles with fixing his car. These inconsistencies in the building of character lead to a cheaper reading experience that makes one want to ignore any mention of characters in the story at all. More than that, the use of comedic tone within the telling of advice is often confusing. Several times, a lighter tone is used to break up the telling of advice in order to appeal to the narrative structure that is being presented. However, that lighter tone is frequently shut down with dialogue from the other character that reemphasizes the seriousness of the topic they are lecturing the reader on. This leaves the reader confused as to how to enjoy the book. This is especially problematic given the approach they are using. The human elements of the story and the comedy (as opposed to the serious lecturing style) should be emphasized in the work, but frequently it is not. In a similar vein, the dialogue frequently reads like blog posts. With characters speaking in paragraph long measured responses, any semblance of a natural character to relate to is gone. That being, said the use of dialogue and conversation to explain topics and advice gives many of these issues the

well-rounded views they need. Adding on to that, the work does leave you adequately prepared for the college experience, as difficult as it may be to read from time to time. Filled with important advice about relationships, jobs, participation in campus activities, and classes, there is plenty to take away from Roth’s work. And the advice given is more than just superficial. Roth delves deep into the more sensitive issues that can arise in college. Topics like substance abuse, anxiety and stress, identity theft, homelessness, and sexual abuse, all find a place within the novel. A l l adv ic e i n t he novel i s wel lresearched and well-rounded. More than that, there is a clear focus and care for student success. Dog-earring pages for future reference, this work is helpful and a useful manual for the college experience. Personally, I know the section on automobile repair has already helped me since reading the novel. All in all, Roth is definitely wellversed in college life and that shows t h rou g h hi s c a ref u l c on sideration of t he ver y rea l problems t hat a re common among those in college. That being said, his lack of follow through on the novelization of this work leaves something to be desired within the reader. Neither a collection of advice or a novel, this see-saw stays still. n

Breaking the Law With Brett F]ok =\algj :j]ll ;dYjc [gehad]k l`] )( Z]kl [jae] \jYeYk g^ l`] hYkl kaplq q]Yjk& BY BRETT CLARK BRETT.CLARK.16@CNU,EDU

While February is usually the time to curl up and watch romantic comedies, it can also be a time to break the law, or rather, watch other people break the law. Compiled by sophomore Brett Clark, an avid Western watcher, the following list contains all the best crime dramas that have been made in the last sixty years.

1. Lawless

dir. John Hillcoat Starring Shia and another favorite actor of mine, Tom Hardy, team up for this compelling Prohibition era flick. Nothing makes you want to start an illicit moonshine operation more than some good ol’ boys from Franklin County, Virginia.

2. The Untouchables

dir. Brian De Palma Speaking of the 18th amendment, Kev i n C ost ner a nd S e a n C on ner y recruit the talents of a human calcula-

tor from the IRS to take down Robert De Niro in this story of the battle between lawmen and Al Capone.

3. Outlaw Josey Wales

dir. Clint Eastwood Considered one of the best Westerns of time, this Clint Eastwood classic follows a revenge plot set during the American Civil War. Producing some of the best one-liners of any Western, this complex movie provides an interesting viewing experience.

4. No Country for Old Men

dir. Ethan Coen, Joel Coen Containing one of the most compelling performances by an actor I’ve seen, Javier Bardem’s performance is enough to make its place on this list. More than that, however, this movie ups the suspense through its use of a minimalistic score. Containing only a mere 16 minutes of music, lines like “What’s the most you’ve ever lost on a coin toss? ” will leave your neck hairs standing up and looking for a place to hide.

5. Death Wish

dir. Michael Winner A nother revenge -based plot, this thriller forces its viewers to question their ideas of right and wrong, with Charles Bronson’s performance as Paul Kersey making that decision all the more difficult.

6. Law Abiding Citizen

8. The Iceman

dir. Ariel Vromen Focusing on the violent and vicious calculated murderer Richard Kuklinski, known as The Iceman, this thriller steps into the mind of a disturbed killer offering a thrilling watch.

9. End of Watch

dir. F. Gary Gray Starring Gerard Butler and Jamie Foxx, this revenge-based movie adds another spin to the familiar plot. With the lead character having a high IQ, this thriller is an interesting take on the genre.

dir. David Ayer Only slightly more deadly than Richard Kuklinski? Mexican Cartels! And that is exactly who Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael Peña take on in this LA cop drama. Shot in a documentary style, this film is the newest release on the list and for good reason.

7. Se7en

10. North by Northwest

dir. David Fincher T h i s m id - 9 0 s “ D iv i ne C ome dy ” based crime thriller features a young Brad Pitt, an age-old Morgan Freeman (whose age is apparently stuck at 63), and, of course, Gwyneth Paltrow who really loses her head as the plot reaches its climax.

dir. Alfred Hitchcock With the final scene taking place on Mount Rushmore, this action packed Hitchcock classic is sure to leave you on the edge of your seat. Following a familiar plot of espionage, mistaken identity, and crime, Hitchcock showcases his place as the master of suspense. n

Pinky Shortcake and Too Tall were among the wrestling performers in the Midgets With Attitude show on Thursday, Jan. 25 at Boathouse Live located at 11800 Merchants Walk Suite 100 in City Center. Midget Wrestling Entertainment, the first touring midget wrestling group in America, has traveled to all 48 continental U.S. states for live performances. Midget Wrest li ng Enter tai n ment has appea red mu ltiple ti mes on national television on shows such as Fox Television’s “Bones,� Animal Planet’s “Pit Boss,� TruTv’s “Full Throttle� and Country Music Television’s “Strangest Ways To Make A Buck.� The World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) -inspired group is currently in the development stage of a reality television series. P utting on about 2 5 0 shows a year, word spread quick ly when the group of wrestlers came to Newport News. At $10 a ticket, and $ 20 for a spot in the VIP lounge, college students, locals and followers of the Midget Wrestlers filled the venue. W hen asked du ri ng t he op eni ng of t he show who had at tended a Midget Wrestling event before, a sparse number of hands in the audience went up. When asked if this was their first ever time seeing midgets wrestle, the crowd cheered. A long with wrestling matches throughout the night, the show also incorporated the audience by holding contests in between rounds. But the entire show was not all fun and games. “I thought it was a very funny and entertaining event,� says senior Catherine Germinario, “but as soon as I started hearing people’s com-

People were making it seem like the midgets weren’t even real people, which made me sad so I eventually left.â€? As a newer venue in town, and a unique attraction, the show drew in a mixed audience. “There were a lot of CNU students there to see the midgets wrestle, but it wasn’t them who were making the rude comments,â€? says Germinario. Whereas Midget Wrestling shows may not be for everyone, Boathouse Live received a large turnout for this specific event. n

Club Fair can be the most overwhelming event of the year. There are almost a hundred clubs to choose from and that can be a lot to deal with at once. Luckily, The Captain’s Log has your back. Don’t sign up for every club. It can be tempting to, but at the end of the day you’ll just end up with a bunch of emails that you may or may not care about. D o b e op en to new clubs. You might surprise yourself with what you like. Don’t feel pressured to sign up for every club your friend does; you probably don’t have a l l t he s a me i nter e st s t h at they do. Do keep your schedu le in mi nd. Too of ten you’l l sig n up for things and then realize you don’t have enough ti me to do anything.

D on’t go ju st for t he f re e stu f f. It ’s g reat to get t hose free pens but also be respectfu l of the clubs represented there and actual ly see what their club is about. Do ask questions about the clubs. These people have devoted a lot of their free time to this club and would be happy to talk about it with you. Don’t forget a bag for t he f liers and information pieces you’ll pick up at the fair. Do take your time, there’s three whole hours of club fair so make sure you visit all the ones you want and give them enough time to tell you about their club. D o n ’ t b e a w a l l f l o w e r. Make sure you’re talking to people a nd actua l ly get ti ng something out of going. Fi na l ly, do actua l ly go.
