The first rain drop of the fall semester can only mean one thing. There is going to be another traffic collision

on the corner of Amber and Haven. On the morning of Sept. 8, Jennifer

Espinoza, undecided, was involved in a car accident while exiting the college’s Rancho campus.

“I was coming out and to make a left on Haven and the girl next to me was making a left turn also,” Espinoza said. “She turned into my lane and I swerved trying to not to hit her and hydroplaned and hit a tree.”

Espinoza’s truck did a 180-degree spin, causing her vehicle to come to a stop

facing the opposite direction of traffic. The impact from Espinoza’s truck

hitting the tree caused the tree to hit a fence, with one of its branches piercing into the her vehicle’s side doors.

The other driver did not stop, and their identity is unknown. The description of the vehicle is unclear, as witnesses claim that it was either a blue or grey vehicle.

One witness of the accident helped Espinoza drive her car to the side of the street to wait for the police to come.

Accidents always seem to happened in the midsection at the street corners of Amber and Haven, and is one of the reasons for the white fences on Haven.

“The city was thinking of using

K-railing,” Deputy Michael Gasway said, “(but) they feel that will result in more damage.”

Espinoza left the scene of the accident with no scratches and her driver’s side doors incapable of being opened.

The struggle for the students in the Automotive Collision Repair program continues. One student

complaint was that during the heat wave which was experienced the first week of school, the students were forced to take a written test outdoors, seated around a metal rack.

“We feel like second-class students,” student Donovan Caver said.

When Sid Burks, Dean of Business and Applied Technology, was told about this incident he said he was not aware of this incident and promised to investigate.

There were several issues that caused the cuts in the classes, according to Burks. Last semester the college went through the accreditation process. One of the mandatory policies that Burks department was lacking was a discontinuance policy.

This policy was to be in place to show statistics as to how the various classes were impacting the college’s budget and the benefits to the students.

The statistics are documented in the department’s September 2009 Needs Assessment report.

The data compiled in the report covers San Bernardino, Riverside, Orange, and Los Angeles counties.

The data reflects the 2007-08 academic years at regional institutions offering an associate’s degree or certificate in Auto Body/Collision Repair.

The data was gathered from external sources, including the Employment Developmental Department’s California Labor Market Information and the U.S. Department of Education’s Postsecondary Education Data System, as well as Chaffey’s Colleague Administration data base.

According to the current college data base only five students received their certificates last year.

Burks has stated that he is willing to meet with students in the future to avoid a reoccurrence of the lack of communication the students experienced. One solution suggested was that the students could choose one or more student advocates who would represent the class and meet with

Burks when issues or complaints arise.“I have input as to when classes are no

longer feasible,” Burks said. “But I do not have the final word. The school president and vice president ultimately do.”

Another fact Burks mentioned is that the facility used for the classes now are substandard. To update the facility, including a new paint booth, would cost thousands of dollars to install and to meet all the government and environmental code requirements.

The future of the automotive collision classes are still hanging in the balance and ultimately president, Dr. Henry Shannon and vice president, Dr. Sherrie Guerreo will make the final decision to cut the classes permanently.

Lack of communication between the dean’s office and the students was the bottom line as to why this issue spiraled out of control and the confusion that ensued.

As of July 1, 2010 Chaffey College is no longer participating in the Federal

Student Loan Program. The college will no longer be offering student loans for this academic school year. The sudden change in policy is said to have little effect on students.

The cut of the Federal Student Loan program is due to the college’s increasing default rate and the increase of the student loan indebtedness. When a default rate goes up, it jeopardizes any free entitlement the school has to offer.

If a school loses its free programs it makes it harder on the students to afford school with no help.

The decision to cut the loan program was made in effort to protect the availability of further financial aid.

“The school has many other resources that a student can go to obtain financial help for school,” said Brenda Fimbres Interim Supervisor of Financial Aid. “The school has programs including BOG Fee Waiver, Federal Work study, Student Employee Work Study, Cal Grant, scholarships and many more.”

Although the loans have been cut there seems to be very little impact on the students and the school itself. No one is quite sure when the program will be reinstated.

With all the free aid the school has to

offer people often wonder why the students are borrowing to begin with. There isn’t anything the students can do to bring the loan program back and there is not a certain time frame in which the program will be cut.

The only thing the students can do is to start paying back the loans they borrowed and get the default rate back down.

Student Activities has partnered with Juniper Elementary School. Cur-rently they are accepting donations

for school supplies, and a few of Chaffey’s chemistry professors are offering extra credit to students who make donations to Juniper Elementary.

On Sept. 3 a meeting was held with the principal of Juniper Elementary, Adele Thomas, and other members of the staff, PTA, and faculty, with Chaffey’s Director of Activities, Susan Stewart, Administrator assistant, Sonia Juarez and an ASCC sena-tor.

In Spring 2011, faculty, staff, and student government members will visit Juniper Elementary to read out loud to some of the chil-dren in various class grades, and then lat-er distribute books to each student in that classroom.

Student Activities is also planning to donate Thanksgiv-ing food and turkeys in November and Christmas donations in December.

Juniper Elemen-tary is part of the “No Excuse Uni-versity,” which is a

network of elementary, middle, and junior high schools around the United States, de-signed to promote college readiness among students.

“Every classroom is adopted by the col-lege and every classroom has their own cheer that goes along with their college,” says Principle Thomas, “On Friday we wear college shirts: we call it College Fri-day”.

Juniper Elementary welcomes our stu-dents to volunteer, or, if they are willing, even to work with the children in class-rooms. For more information, contact Stu-dent Activities.

Student Activities offers Juniper Elementary a helping hand

Community colleges are a great place to jump-start your education. Recently the enrollment in com-

munity colleges has skyrocketed due to various reasons including unemployment rates rising and the cost per units meeting the budget of students. As a result, it is get-ting harder for students to get classes they need to transfer.

In earlier years transferring to a CSU was an easy process. All that was needed was 60 transferable units, with a certain amount of those units meeting major re-quirements, and a 2.0 GPA.

Many students found it harder to be ad-mitted in Fall 2010, because of the Cali-fornia state budget crisis. Certain campus-es were forced to raise GPA and be even stricter with deadlines.

There are 23 CSU schools in California, most of which stated that they would not be accepting mid-year (Spring 2010) appli-cations. In late July an email was sent out informing students that there will be a win-dow of opportunity to apply for the Spring 2010 semester. Usually the application

cycle for admission for spring term runs from Aug. 1 to Aug. 31, but the California State University announced that they will remain open until Sept. 27.

Although CSU campuses are accepting applications, a letter written by the CSU chancellor addressed that “due to uncer-tainty surrounding the state budget, the en-rollment of new students for that term still remains contingent on a restoration of state funding.”

Students are left in a situation in which they can apply, be eligible and not get in because of the state budget. To fix this problem CSU schools have offered an exit route.

“Should the CSU not receive a resto-ration of funding and not be able to ad-mit new students for the term, applicants may request their admission application be changed to fall 2011 term or may request that their application be withdrawn and the application fee be refunded.”

For those students planning on apply-ing to a four-year college soon and believe they are currently stuck in limbo, Director of Transfer Center & International Stu-

dents Jenny Dannelly offers some useful tips that accompany this article.

There are many options available to stu-dents including partnership programs with other schools, admission guarantee pro-grams, and early admission.

Students are encouraged to visit the the college transfer center located in the Stu-dent Services Administration, Room 120.

Anyone with questions about their cur-rent transfer needs is welcome to schedule an appointment or just walk in.

aNGELica DaVaLOS

Budget continues to impact prospective transfer students

Tips for transfer success• Focus on where you are now, talk to a counselor and see what classes you could be taking to better our chances of transferring

• Try applying to Private Schools, they often offer more financial aid, and they are flexible since they are not funded by the government.

• Out of state schools bordering Cali-fornia are currently inviting California Community colleges to apply and giv-ing them “A Good Neighbor” policy, which waives the non-resident enroll-ment fees.

• Participate in their current “Transfer

Talk” series at the Transfer Center.

• Do your best to get the highest grades in your classes to improve your GPA. Even though the minimum is 2.0, many schools have raised this requirement in order to eliminate more applicants.

• Apply broadly, try applying to more than one type of school (private, CSU, and UC) to keep your options open. The more you apply, the better chances you have to get into at least one

• Watch deadlines. Universities are find-ing any excuse to eliminate applicants. It is probable that if you submit your application late, your chances of admit-tance are slim.

Leaving IraqJOShUa hicKEN

There are some things you just can’t learn from copying a whiteboard. Instructors are largely here to mark

their whiteboards with useful information, so we can read it, copy it, and hopefully absorb it. But any instructor worth their credential knows there are some things that just don’t fit on that board, and that they’re still worth communicating.

“Off the whiteboard” brings those tidbits to you. This week’s provider is Professor Kevin Cameron, from the political science department.

Q - On Aug 31, Obama declared an end to combat in Iraq. Since then, at least two troops have been shot to death. Is it typical that there will be casualties after combat has been declared over?

A - I would think so. The way the war has gone, in the last couple of years you’ve seen some de-escalation of violence. I’ve seen nothing too much on the Iraqi side in changes, although they’ve improved security, to think that that wasn’t gonna happen. But, personally, I’m not too sure how the 50,000 remaining [troops] are doing anything different than the 130,000 that were there in August. It seems like they’ve just lowered their numbers but they’re basically doing the same kind of security work they were doing.

Q - Do you have any idea where 50,00 sits in the scale compared to other U.S. postwar occupations?

A - Well, it’s smaller than what we had in Germany and Europe. Definitely a lot smaller than what we had in Europe, but we still have more in Europe now...it’s close to the level that we had in Japan, but it’s pretty large. 50,000 is a lot, but it’s 35% of of what we used to have at the high point. It’s still a lot to have there. If the president is really going to bring them back at the end of next year, then maybe it doesn’t seem [to be] as much. We have to see if the Iraqis can handle their security.

Q - In his speech, Obama said U.S. Troops would be “supporting Iraqi troops in targeted counterterrorism missions.” In what’s described as a War on Terror, what differentiates counterterrorism from combat?

A - Probably the line would be drawn by using another term: “counterinsurgency.” It seems like that’s what the issue has been since the fall of the Saddam Hussein regime that really the U.S. is involved in counterinsurgency. So what I gather is that the remaining troops will be maintaining security...but in counterinsurgency they’re going to play a secondary role, and an advisory role, to the Iraqi security forces. I have no idea what that looks like - if that looks like the same old same old that’s been going on for years...or [if] there’s going to be a fundamental shift. I would imagine that the decrease in U.S. soldiers means that the security responsibilities will probably fall heavier on the Iraqi security.

Q - How you would say the withdrawal might affect policy in Iran?

A - Iran’s sort of an odd situation

because I think Iran is something that, in my estimate, has to be handled much more diplomatically [regarding nuclear arms development] than what we did in Iraq...Iran is a much more stable system than Iraq was, and it’s a different kind of authoritarianism than existed in Iraq. The Iranian Revolution actually had democratic roots, and they do have semi-free elections.

You have to remember that in the American press, Ahmedinejad, the Iranian president, is sort of pushed because he’s the president, as if he holds the same stature in Iran that the president does in the United States, but he doesn’t. The judicial branch, the supreme council runs the show.

Q - What should students who want to affect policy in Iraq be studying?

A - Study the history of the area, of Iraq from it’s colonialism on. Study the religious difference. A lot of students [may] not realize that there are different schools within Islam. I think if the defense department had studied the history of the area more, they should’ve known that they were going to get strongly partisan distinctions after the fall of the Hussein regime. Just try to learn more about Iraq.

Q - I’m surprised you didnt’ suggest

political science.A -Well, I guess, international relations

or something. I’m not the biggest cheerleader for my discipline. It certainly has its limitations.

Q - Describe a successful state in three words.

A - Public health care. (Chuckling) It’s probably a dying breed of state. Really a successful state is one where the majority of the people see the institutions of government as legitimate.

Q - Would you apply any of those descriptions to Iraq?

A - At this time, no. They don’t have a government, so you can’t have a sense of legitimacy in the institutions. And Iraqis don’t have a long history of democracy, we’ll see, probably in the near future, whether it’s able to provide for the security of the people, and I think security also means to give them a certain standard of living that includes electricity and other things.

Q - It is nice to have lights and water.A - Yeah, well they’ve got generators

all over the place now, maybe to make the rest of the country look like the green zone. Maybe when the rest of the country looks

like the green zone, they’ll be a successful state.

Q - Employment is tough right now, do you think if there’s any amount of success there that people should start sending their resumes to Iraq?

A - I think there’ve been enough Americans in Iraq for a while.

Winners were nearly everywhere as campus student clubs came together in the Quad on Sept.

15 for Club Rush.With Mexican food and more free treats

at the club tables — including brownies served by a flock of future doctors — the Associated Students offered a drawing for special prizes.

ASCC President and Student Trustee Eddie Sanchez and Commissioner of the Inter Club Council Gabriel Sanchez announced the winners’ names, but most of the students called were not present to

hear their names called or to collect their awards. The winners included:

• Cynthia Alvarado, the grand prize of a Staff Parking Pass good until 2013.

• Abraham Lopez, second place winner, a parking citation dismissal.

• Michelle Mora, a $25 gift certificate to Stater Brothers.

• Felicity Kagiri, a $25 Shell Gas Card.• Mercy Mintan, free ridership on the

bus on the ASCC dime for 31 days.• Adrian Quintanar, who’s going to

Disneyland.Sanchez said that the winners can pick

up their prizes, with validation, at the Student Activities office.

The Welcome Back and Club Rush event was held on Sept. 15 in the quad, providing free food for stu-

dents. Twenty clubs were present at the event, making themselves known on cam-pus.

More than 500 students showed up, to enjoy free tacos, rice, beans, tortilla chips, potatoes, chicken, beef, drinks and a mini salad bar.

“Student government does a great job to get students involved,” said Orville Clark, art history professor.

The clubs were located on the upper-north side of the quad, where a map was located to show locations of club tables. The food was served on the ground level.

“It’s nice how they have tents, so it won’t be overcrowded. You eat food, have fun down there, and get information about clubs up there. Great set up,” said Esther Young, sociology major.

ASCC, The Avid Zoologist Club, Pre-Med Society, MSA, Chaffey Art Orga-nization, Christians at Chaffey College, Change the Globe and many more clubs came together to announce the purpose of their clubs, the different activities they would be involved in, and informa-tion about their meetings. Each provided a sign-up sheet for students to join their club.

“I think they should set up differently next time due to the space, so every club can be seen better. Now we can negotiate with other clubs and work with them,” said Nusar Milbes, president of MSA Club.

Raffle ticket prizes were announced at the end of the event, and included a staff parking permit, a Shell gas gift card, a Stater Bros. gift card, a bus pass, Dis-neyland tickets, and a parking permit dis-missed card.

Mathew Green is a student who is eager to fulfill his dreams as an Computer Information

System Technologist.“I have endured ups and downs in my

life, yet I still see the need to succeed,” Green said.

Green has been attending classes for the past three years, and has suffered from many health problems since a child. Beginning his first year on campus, he has had a number of surgeries that limited his time in school. From brain surgeries to relearning how to walk three times, Green is enthusiastic about broadening his education.

Teachers fell short of Green’s expectations of patience, and he had to withdraw from several courses. But he did not give up. Green continues to demonstrate seriousness to reach his goals.

“I don’t feel any different from any other student on campus,” he said. “I feel I have the same opportunity to further my education despite my disabilities.”

Green is taking online classes and one on campus this semester.

He participates in the Disability Programs and Services on campus and said that it is beneficial because it helps him to get materials and access to programs designed for students with disabilities.

Green said that keeping a positive outlook on life, and traveling to Maine to visit relatives each year, motivates him to complete his courses and graduate. Reconciling with his challenges, he has indulged on the reflection of gained peace to go for the ultimate goal.

About 15 percent of Americans are without health coverage. Even if you are fortunate enough to be covered, the co-pay for a doctor’s visit can range from $10 to $35. If medication is required then additional cost will be added.

College students usually do not have the time or the money to go see a doctor so here are some inexpensive and easy remedies for common ailments.

Hangovers can be cured with one or two capsules of milk thistle dissolved in juice or water. Alka-seltzer is another big help.

“The best way to prevent a hangover is by not over drinking. Moderation is the key to everything,” Kay Peek, direc-tor of Student Health Services, said.

For a cold or fever, grate fresh ginger and add it to tea with lemon. Both ginger and lemon will induce sweating which helps to bring a fever down.

Also make sure to drink 8-10 glasses of water to prevent dehydration and bring down internal body temperature. Drink-

ing a lot of fluids will also help flush out toxins through urine.

A cough can be cured with dark choc-olate. According to a study given by the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology in 2004, theobro-mine, an ingredient found in dark choco-late, is more effective than cough syrup with codeine.

Gargle with warm salt water for a sore throat to help with inflammation. Eat-ing honey will also coat and soothe the throat.

Stress can lead to a variety of other health issues. One teaspoon of dried sage

leaves in a cup of boiling water is proven to relieve anxiety. Music therapy is an-other effective way to deal with tension.

Keep in mind any allergies before try-ing these suggestions.

“These remedies are natural and safe. Extra precaution is needed with things like herbal supplements,” Peek said. “They are not always FDA approved and may have some harmful side effects.”

cOUrTNEY Garcia

For decades the debate between evolution and creationism has been argued tirelessly. It is no far stretch

to say that the evolution vs. creationism debate has long been an argument mostly associated as science vs. faith and therefore can never be settled, no matter the effort. But despite any sort of effort to change that aspect of the debate, without proper evidence each argument ends purely as a philosophical squabble where religion and scientific explanation duel with little outcome.

Everyone is entitled to his or her opinion and belief but for the sake of a realistic debate with a realistic answer opinion should be traded for evidence.

Though the theory of evolution has been criticized for its title of “theory,” it is still one of the best-supported ideas in the scientific world. The surety that is placed on evolution by many biologists actually

deters them from engaging in any debates on the subject. They believe that to do so would open up room for doubt despite the sizable amount of scientific evidence that has been collected over the last century.

Many scientists have avoided the subject because of the differing ways of argument between themselves and supporters of “intelligent design.” Intelligent design has even less space or potential for much evidence or proof through observation, and is said to be impossible to test through experiments.

Though creationists argue that evolution has never been observed because the process takes far too long to be recorded in one lifetime there are actually many cases in which evolution has been observed in its most basic definition — “a change in allele frequencies over time.” Due to “natural selection” it is possible to see the changes in species such as insects that grow immune to pesticides after several generations.

But any scientific evidence that could

be cited for either side of the argument has, no doubt, already been disclosed to the public. And so we are still left with only the p h i l o s o p h i c a l foundation of the debate that will probably never truly be answered but will be continuously and tirelessly challenged as if humanity were Sisyphus, his boulder were reason, and his hill religion.

EmmaNUEL PricE

Many scientist and professors argue that creation has no scientific evidence and should

not be taught in schools, I on the other hand disagree.

I think that the Bible alone is the evidence. It is the most circulated book of all time.

Okay, maybe the world is a few years past 10 thousand years old, but if the Bible is nonsense children need to be exposed to it because of its staying power alone. The youth can decipher and decide for themselves.

Monkeys are very similar to humans indeed, however monkeys and

primates still exist, and they aren’t evolving into another race.

The tree of phylogeny (which is a representation of the evolutionary relationships among a set of organism or groups of organisms) is a hypothesis, this is not concrete, but many believe it to be factual. These same people call believers in creation irrational, when it is evident that we do not know creation is false.

Darwin gathered a lot of data and came up with many grand conclusions, but why are our philosophers so important?

Something in my gut just tells me I was created by an intelligent creator, and I think this feeling is simply because of faith. This faith can’t be measured by man or his innovative tools, or explained via mathematical equation.

I have many questions about the origins of life, for example: why did my creator create an imperfect world with

imperfect people? To be real if I were to create a universe I would have an eclectic mix of order, randomness, ugly, and pretty etc.; for the sake of my entertainment. I have small ears and I am lazy by nature, but I would never call my creator a “poor engineer.”

My creator has creative control, and likes abstract art. When did the first human walk on what we call earth?

Does my creator look like an alien? I

ask questions like these to myself daily, I will admit to this.

We as h u m a n s want to understand and control n e a r l y e v e r y t h i n g around us,

however the human brain

cannot even fathom how our

creator looks, or what his intentions or mannerism are. No laboratory experiment can duplicate what a God can do.

Debate over evolution vs. creationism continues

Every semester I hear the same thing: “The parking is so ridiculous!” “Why don’t they

just build another parking lot?” etc. Even The Breeze covers this every semester (we view this article as the sacred cow that we feel we must cover ever semester since we hear it so damn often), but there is no reason for this. The problem always solves itself.

Have you seen the dirt parking lot recently? It’s almost empty. The reason for this is within two months students start dropping their classes and stop showing up. Why the hell would anyone try and fix a problem that exists for only two months? That would be a waste of money and honestly right now, the school should not be spending anymore.

Take a look at your classes now versus the first day. Are there less people? Spring 2010 I had a history class that had people literally arguing over seats, but by the final there was less than 15 people.

If you really want more parking spaces and more classes, you need to stop dropping classes and show up for every class. As of right now what we have accommodates the number of students that actually show up throughout the semester.

If you are not going to take classes seriously, do not enroll. You are wasting your time, your money and precious space. To everyone else: quit complaining. That’s my job.

JESSICA RUBIO

Many believe women are so dainty and clean. Wrong! That’s just what they would

like you to think. In reality, women are disgusting. Just go take a look in the restrooms on campus and you will see what I’m talking about.

I’m scared to even open a stall without holding my breath. I always wonder if there is going to be something repulsive waiting for me on the other side. And usually there is.

The smell you get walking in can be nauseating to the point where I’d rather walk out and hold it until I get home.

It’s obviously way too hard for women to flush the toilet, because they go un-flushed and no one bothers to flush them when they see it. Instead they just turn around and leave it. Then, no

one uses that stall leaving us to wait in a crowd until the next stall is available.

Some don’t sit on the toilet seat because they’re afraid of the germs and bacteria when in reality, they’re the ones leaving it behind. They leave drops of pee all over the seat and make it impossible for us to sit and enjoy that one-minute we get to ourselves. Instead we’re pulling a balancing act trying to hold on to the walls and grab some toilet paper at the same time.

Sounds fun right?The bathrooms don’t even look

like they’ve been cleaned at all. The trash cans are

overwhelmed with paper and womens’ toiletries to the point where it’s all over the floor.

Women will always be unhygienic in the restrooms. Until they learn the use of a trash can and the handle on the toilet, we’ll all just continue to hold our breaths and suffer in those disturbing restrooms.

Doesn’t that just piss you off?

On Sept. 11 and 12, directors, pro-ducers and cinematographers gathered at the Beverly Garland

hotel, just minutes away from Univeral Studios, Hollywood.

The filmmakers met to attend “The Power of Super 8 Film,” a Super 8mm boot camp hosted by the 8mm film sup-plies and service company “Pro8mm.” Phil Vigeant, owner of Pro8mm and author of “The Power of Film,” presented the event as “two full days of classroom-style im-mersion into the world of Super 8 film.”

Super 8 is an 8mm motion picture film with unique capabilities. It delivers a classy vintage look that can capture exactly what the artist desires, what the consumer wants, and what the professional filmmak-er needs.

Well-known directors such as Steven Spielberg, George Lucas and Oliver Stone are some who have shot movies with the power of Super 8 film. While some may not be ready to step out of the box, others are taking a cue from these directors and exploring the mystical benefits of Super 8.

Attendees of “The Power of Super 8 Film” were provided with a special note-book. It included information on Pro 8’s cameras, lens features, types of films, and more. A couple of extra treats in the note-book were “The Essentail Reference Guide for Filmmakers” by Kodak and a Fujifilm “Motion Picture Film Manual.”

Professional filmmakers who use Su-per 8 spoke at the event, sharing creative film techniques and applications for Super 8mm film. The speakers included filmmak-

ers George Manzanilla and Steve Rice, who’ve used Pro8mm’s Super 8 film to shoot Billabong campaigns and footage with Melissa Etheridge and Linda Blair, respectively.

Chaffey professor of Broadcasting and Cinema, Daniel Jacobo, also spoke for the event. Jacobo engaged the audience with a reel of projects created by his students, who utilitized Pro8mm film in the spring of 2010.

Some of Jacobo’s sudents from Broad-casting and Cinema courses also attended. Film major Camilo Ramirez said she was honored to have been invited to the event by Jacobo.

“Pro 8 is going to show my characters’ mental state,” Ramirez said. Experiment-ing with the idea of effects verses reality on film, Ramirez says he’s found some-thing that fits what he nees for his current project.

Justin Lowe, film major, found the event to be a great opportunity. “It’s good to know what other people are doing with Pro8,” Lowe said. Broadcasting ma-jor Robert Newman said that if someone wants to give the audiences a horror feel-ing then HD cameras are good, and that it’s best to use Pro8mm film and cameras to re-ally entice them.

Students’ facial expressions said it best at the end of the event: a tiring but ener-getic boot camp had proven to be a success and a new foundation for many. Blood was pumping and attendees were ready to go out and “shoot” something immediately.

Making a Metroid game is formulaic. You toss space bounty hunter Samus Aran on

a planet, allow her to explore freely, fight monsters and collect items. That’s all you need to make the quintessential Metroid experience. Nintendo, partnered with Team Ninja, experiments on the formula with Other M. They toss Samus on a derelict space ship, force her down a linear path and give her permission to use items. Nintendo doesn’t want to just make a Metroid game. They want to see how far they can push it in another direction.

Other M explores what Nintendo usually overlooks. Storyline is front and center this time around, as Other M expands upon Samus Aran’s past and her relationship with her former commanding officer. Her story is actually interesting and you can’t help but wonder why Nintendo doesn’t make story driven games. There is one minor complaint, since the story actually takes away from the game play. Samus comes fully equipped this time around, removing the need to explore and find equipment. But because of her relationship with her commanding officer, she isn’t allowed to use any of her equipment until ordered to do so. Way to go Nintendo. You changed Samus into a woman seeking the approval of men. Feminists everywhere are sure to be upset.

Nintendo managed to expand combat in the Metroid formula. Team Ninja’s influence is most apparent. Expect Samus to glide across the screen, lasers blazing.

But don’t expect that Samus won’t be an acrobatic badass with Team Ninja around. New to her repertoire of moves is the execution maneuver, a brutal finishing move. Dodging is easy to perform, allowing Samus to slip under the claws of aliens with ease. Players can switch to first person perspective, allowing players to fight and explore in greater detail. Other M keeps the tradition of including larger than life monsters, compellingly creating the most action packed sections of the game. To fight these behemoths, you need to utilize all of Samus’ abilities to survive. However, this is where combat falls apart.

Nintendo gambled by only maneuvering Samus through the Wii remote. While it is refreshing to see the revolutionary control scheme put to use, it actually detracts from the game experience. Dodging is overly simple, as it relies on players timing presses on the directional pad. Instead of fluidly moving Samus while dodging, players are likely to be hammering on the pad to ensure safety. To switch to first person, players point the remote at the screen. While this is an ingenious usage of the remotes capabilities, fighting monsters is a matter of fumbling with the remote. Switching to first person is frustrating when a giant alien is staring down your throat.

Other M is a great game with great flaws. Fans of the franchise will enjoy Other M. There is enough experimentation that will hold your attention. For those who have never played Metroid, pick up Super Metroid on the Snes. It is still the king of all Metroid games.

The Mt. San Jacinto Eagles came within one yard of ruining Chaffey Coach Carl Beach’s 61st birthday

on Sept. 11.Beach, who turned 61 on Sept. 13,

watched the Eagles drive into the Pan-thers own 1-yard line, but on fourth down, Chaffey’s defense pulled out everything they had and stopped the Eagles final drive.

“This is my 310th game as a high school and college coach,” Beach said. “I’ve seen a lot, and I’m really proud of this defense for making plays late to preserve this win.”

Freshman running back Reggie Bry-ant led the Panthers with 156 yards rush-ing, including a 33-yard touchdown in the first half. Bryant’s 33-yard touchdown tied the game at 6, but the extra point field goal attempt was missed by sophomore kicker Trevor Layne.

Sophomore wide receiver Brandon Caldwell then gave Chaffey a 12-6 lead when he scored on the first play of the sec-ond quarter. From this point, Chaffey com-manded the lead for the rest of the game.

Mt. San Jacinto attempted a comeback late in the fourth, led by sophomore run-ning back Dort Franex, who rushed for 90 yards on 20 attempts. The Eagles mount-ed a drive that resulted in an opportunity to win with 15 seconds left in the game. Sophomore running back Butch Tuvale got the hand off on the Eagles 4th and goal on the 1-yard line, but was stopped just short of the end zone by the Panther defensive line to end the game.

“We had to buckle down and play our game,” freshman defensive back Vincent Minore said. “The defensive and offensive line both had to step it up and play hard.”

Chaffey’s special teams missed two field goals and missed an extra point on a mishandled snap.

“We need to get better in a lot of ar-

eas, but I am not put-ting up with undis-ciplined play this year,” Beach said. “If a kid throws the ball up in the air or hits someone late to hurt our team, they’re out for the rest of the half.”

The Panthers (2-0) will travel to Ventura on Satur-day Sept. 25 at 6 p.m. as they look to contin-ue their w i n n i n g streak.

Opener turns on a fumble GrEG WOODSON

The Panthers prevailed in dramatic fashion edging San Bernardino

Valley College in the 2010 season opener at Wolverines Stadium, on Sept. 4.

The key play came late in the fourth quarter with Chaffey trailing 27-21.

Panthers’ defensive back Daimion Stafford returned a fumble 77 yards for a touchdown that gave Chaffey

the lead with 49 seconds left. The fumble was forced by sophomore John Patrick. The Panthers then blocked a 50-yard field goal attempt as time expired to hold on to a 28-27 victory over the Wolverines.

“I just saw my teammate knock the ball out, and I scooped it up and ran it to the

house,” Stafford said. “You have to play the game to the finish every time out.”

Chaffey defensive stand-out line backer/defensive lineman Joseph Carter had 10 tackles [five solo and five as-sist], one sack, a forced fum-ble and was around the ball most of the game for the Panthers’ defense. “There’s always four quarters of football. You have to play every game to the last sec-ond,” Carter said, who has verbally committed to the University of Arizona.

In front of a hostile crowd, Panthers’ starting

quarterback Jeff Ginolfi ap-peared to be confident throughout the

game. Ginolfi was 15 of 23 for 249 yards with three touchdown passes -- one to Ty-rone Brantly, one to Ivan Lilly -- and one to speedster De’Shawn Beck.

The Panthers used a duel quarterback scheme against the Wolverines.

Valley scored near the mid-way point of the first quarter on a nine-yard touchdown pass from Neville Roman to take an early 7-0 lead.

It was on the Wolverines’ first drive of the second quarter when Chaffey’s Carter forced a fumble that gave the ball back to the of-fense. The Panthers put together

a good drive that was capped off by a 33-yard touchdown pass from Ginolfi to Brantly, with 12:11 remaining in the half,

bringing the score to 7-6 after a blocked extra point.

While holding a 14-6 lead with 1:28 left, Valley punted to an awaiting Beck who ran it back for a 85-yard touchdown. But it was negated by an illegal block in the back penalty.

“It would have been a big play for us. I saw an opening and I hit it, but it got called back because of the illegal block,” Beck said.

Chaffey went on to score a few plays later on a 31-yard touchdown pass from Ginolfi to Lilly. The Panthers added a two point conversion to bring the score to 14-14 at halftime.

Fumbles plagued the Chaffey offense throughout the entire game.

The Wolverines took a 21-14 lead with 7:20 to go in the third quarter on a screen pass from Neville to Donte Turner-Lewis that went for a 30-yard touchdown. Val-ley scored again, on a 1-yard run with 1:07 left, to push the lead to 27-14 after a blocked extra point.

With Valley still in control in the fourth quarter, the Panthers converted on a cru-cial fourth-and-one to keep the drive go-ing. Ginolfi then connected with Beck on a 18-yard touchdown pass that cut the score to 27-21 with 9:37 remaining. It was an ex-cellent play on Beck’s part, as he dove be-tween two Wolverines’ defenders to break the plain of the goal line.

Although defensive penalties haunted Chaffey throughout the game, the Pan-thers’ defense seemed to make all the im-portant plays at the right time. Sophomore Montoya Waiters intercepted Valley’s Nev-ille at the 7:52 mark of the fourth to keep the Panthers hope alive.

The Wolverines got the ball back, and on the ensuing drive the Panthers’ defen-sive forced the fumble which ultimately determined the outcome.

Last-minute heroics key Panther victories

The men’s soccer team has showed improvement after starting the season 0-3, with wins over Imperial Valley and Moor-park.

The men now have an overall record of 2-3-2 after a tie against Riverside on Sept. 14, which was the last of a five-game home-stretch.

The Panthers’ record consists of losses to El Camino, Cypress and College of the

Canyons, ties against Glendale and River-side, and wins against Imperial Valley and Moorpark.

The lady Panthers are coming off vic-tories against College of the Sequoias and College of the Canyons. The wins improved their record to 4-0-2. Next up for the lady Panthers is two home games against LA Harbor on Tuesday, Sept. 21 at 2 p.m. and Taft on Friday, Sept. 24 at 2 p.m.
