Spoofs and Spooks

Where does Halloween

come from? Most

people don’t know, and I can note that

neither did I until recently. I mean who

thought of dressing up in eccentric cos-

tumes, and roaming the streets at night

anyway? Well, you’re about to find out.

Halloween was originally a

3-day festival beginning on the 1st of

November, and no, it wasn’t always

called “Halloween.” It’s original name

was Samhain (pronounced so-in) which

actually means November. The Celts

used to live in an area that is now Ire-

land, the United Kingdom, and North-

ern France. On October 31st they cel-

ebrated Samhain, and on that day, ghosts

were believed to walk the earth among

the living. The Druids or Celtic priests,

then had a ritual where a huge bonfire

would be built, and then they would

proceed to make some sacrifices (usually

small animals but it was also believed

that humans were once used as sacri-

fices as well). During the bonfire they

would also attempt to tell each other’s

fortunes. The Druids dressed in all sorts

of animal skins, which is probably where

dressing in costumes came into play. The

Celts were eventually conquered by the

Romans, and by 43 A.D., two Roman

festivals were combined into the Celts

Samhain celebration.

The first was Feralia, a day in late

October where Romans celebrated the

passing of the dead. The second day was

called Ponoma, named after the Roman

goddess of fruit and trees. Her symbol

was the apple, and this has something

to do with the tradition of bobbing for

apples. By 800 A.D., Christianity spread

to the Celtic lands, and by the seventh

century it was no longer a festival to cel-

ebrate the dead, but a church sanctioned

holiday. Pope Boniface IV decided that

November 1st is all saints day, a time to

honor Saints and Martyr’s. This up-

dated celebration was also referred to as

All-hallows or All-hallowmas. And the

night before it, the night of Samhain, be-

gan being called All-hallows eve, or now,

Halloween.

In that day women were very

curious of whom their husbands were

going to be, or what their future hus-

bands would look like, so they preformed

some rituals. In 18th century Ireland, a

woman might place her ring into a vat of

mashed potatoes on Halloween night, in

hopes of bringing love to whoever found

it. In Scotland, some fortune-tellers

believed that the young women should

name a hazelnut for every man she de-

sired and then toss the nuts into the fire-

place. Then, the nut that burned to ashes

rather than exploding signified the girl’s

future husband. Another tale was that if

a girl drank a sweet drink, made of wal-

nuts, hazelnuts, and nutmeg before she

went to bed one night, she would dream

of her future husband. There are many

tales and traditions of what was done on

what is now Halloween, so watch out for

the ghosts and goblins, while you’re out

having your fun next year.

On Thursday, October 29, College of South-ern Nevada President

Michael Richards met with students one-on-one at his office. This was all part of an initiative to give students a chance to present their questions and concerns, or, to just get to know Presi-dent Richards. Richards, who was appointed president of CSN in May 2008, felt there was a disconnect between him and the students at this institution. “For the most part, I feel like I’m not as in touch with students as I could be or need to be.” said Richards. “I saw this as an opportunity to be in touch with [students], and also to help them and receive their ideas and so on. The meetings are a chance to sit down and talk about what might be on the mind of a student. If they have a problem or concern we could get that addressed.” K.C. Brekken, communications manager at CSN, scheduled the meet-ings. Students were able to set up ap-pointments by emailing [email protected], a special email address set up for the students of CSN, or by calling the office. “I worked with K.C. on setting the [meetings] up, and we had about fourteen or sixteen students indicate an interest in this and set up a time.” said Richards. The structure of the meetings were fairly simple; a two hour block

with about five minutes per student. Richards says he plans on doing the one-on-one meetings with CSN stu-dents in the future, but some aspects will probably be modified. “I think we’re going to change it just a little bit. We’re going to keep the appointment process for those who would like appointments, but also, open it up a little broader to students who may just want to drop in.” said Richards. As of now, there is no set date for the next session. “We’ll do it about once a semes-ter, and announce well in advance kind of like we did this time with notices on the digital panels, and so on.” says Richards. Fall 2009 is the first semester to have these student-centered meetings with President Rich-ards. Overall, Richards felt the one-on-one sessions with the students of CSN was a good experience. “I thought it was very positive from my perspective. We’re working now on get-ting some answers to some things, and we’ll communicate those back directly to the students.”

“I encourage students that if they’d like to meet with me, that they’re welcome to do it. And if they have an interest in that way to participate next time.” says Richards. Students at the College of Southern Nevada are strongly encouraged to make an appointment with President Richards regarding any concerns they may have, or questions they would like to have answered.

College of Southern Ne-vada (CSN) participated in the 32nd Annual Col-

lege Fair at Cashman Center on Oct. 27 and 28 to advertise programs to prospec-tive students.

Booths promoted CSN pro-grams for high school students who may attend college in the future.

A student from Chaparral high school said that most students who live in Las Vegas default to CSN. She felt that CSN was the best option because tuition is far cheaper than it is at univer-sities.

New programs at CSN include the upcoming Communication Certifi-cation.

“The communication certificate is not yet official,” said Department of Communication chairman, James Mc-Coy.

“It still needs to be recognized by the Nevada System of Higher Educa-tion. We started the proposal process in September 2009, to possibly be approved by spring, and to be posted in catalogs by July 2011. Students interested in pur-

suing this can take the necessary classes in anticipation,” McCoy said.

The program will allow communication and journal-ism majors, and students in the workforce to take communica-tion classes and be able to have accreditation for their career.

Dave Morgan, director of marketing at CSN, said that electricity is provided to booths

that request it.

“We provide school/department name signage, table covers, view books, posters and logo items, including pencils, pens and highlighters for each booth. We do not provide keychains because they are not allowed at the fair. This is because giveaway items must be ‘educa-tional’ in nature according to CCSD in-structions,” Morgan stated.

Morgan stressed that the only thing each department had to bring was their own brochures, literature, displays, presentations, and other items of that sort.

The money CSN spent for each booth space went to the Clark County School District (CCSD) School Coun-selors Scholarship for students.

Chairperson and coordinator of the college fair, Brian P. Moore, said that the event is supported by CCSD and there are three main reasons why this event is needed.

“The mission of middle and high school counselors is to make stu-dents more aware of the importance of a

college education. Many of our students do not have the means to travel and see the college to which they are applying. So, we bring the colleges to Las Vegas where students can meet and obtain more information from the colleges in person. Finally, we provide a scholarship called the CCSD School Counselor’s Scholarship sponsored by the Clark County Public Education Foundation (CCPEF),” Moore said.

The scholarship offered is worth $40,000.

“One, the scholarship is for $1000 for one graduating senior from each of the comprehensive high schools in CCSD, and one $1,000 scholarship for a graduating senior from the district’s alternative high schools.” said Secretary Jessica Festa.

The Clark County College Fair Plus, Inc. (CCCPF) is established as a non-profit business. Festa stated that there were four people involved in the planning of the College Fair.

“So while my title was secre-tary, we all pitch in to help in any way that we can. I wanted to clarify because I don’t want to convey the idea that the responsibilities I carried out have to do with being called the secretary. This year, I helped us obtain our temporary event permit, which involved communicating with the department of taxation, and the city of Las Vegas,” Festa stated.

The CCPEF is dedicated in generating community resources, facili-tating collaborations, and partnerships to ensure high-quality public educational opportunities for all children.

Thanksgiving is a confounding holi-day. We all learned the story in the 2nd grade; pilgrims have a crappy

harvest, Native Americans share their food, everyone’s happy…yay. The part our elementary school play conveniently didn’t mention was when the pilgrims gave natives small pox, stole their land, and implemented a 400-year cultur-al genocide. To symbolize our Native brothers kindness for exchanging beads for property rights, we have now devel-oped a holiday of glutton and passive-ness.

Memories of thanksgiving revolve around food: great feasts at grandma’s house, pumpkin pie breakfast, weeks of leftover turkey sandwiches, and sweet tryptophan slumber. And also, giving thanks for the bounty placed before us. Who exactly are we giving all these thanks to? God is the easy answer, re-gardless of differing religious views; most people like to thank a higher power for the good things in life. The second easy answer would be family. More often than not we are thankful for our families love and support. But Thanksgiving, at its core, is not a religious or family holi-

day; it’s a national holiday to signify a historical event. So are we supposed to be thankful for our history, country and leaders? I sure as sh*t can’t be thankful for the supposed unity between the na-tives and settlers, or for the wars waged, bullets shot, and bombs dropped for the sake of the American way. This Thanks-giving was different. It felt more and more that I’m not the only one with a pessimistic outlook on life. Today, many people are finding it a lot harder to be thankful for anything. As I drive down Main St. I can’t help but wonder; how thankful are the people living in tents

this year? Las Vegas has one of the highest (and still grow-ing) homeless populations in the nation. We also have a soaring foreclosure rate, often settling at the top nationwide. Accord-ing to many lists, Vegas is pretty much at the bottom of “Best city to…” and the top of “worst city to…”

I am thankful for my lost house, my mounting debt, my lay- off, and my flat-screen.

This Thanksgiving I refused to be thankful. This year I want-ed to be hungry...hungry for something more meaningful than pilgrims and pie. In that spirit I volunteered at a shelter. Maybe in the faces of the destitute I can discover meaning in this holiday. After all isn’t that what Thanksgiving should be about: helping others? Would we be here if the natives hadn’t been caring enough to not watch fellow humans starving to death? And after-all, the shelter is the one place where I can find something to be thankful for. No matter how screwed up I feel things are now, they could always be worse. And that’s something we can all be thankful for.

“For the ignorance of the

public is the real capital

of monopoly.” This quote

by Henry Demarest Lloyd, begins the

second book by Antonia Juhasz; The

Tyranny of Oil: The World’s Most Pow-

erful Industry and What We Must Do

To Stop It.”

A leading oil industry expert,

Antonia Juhasz is the director of the

Chevron Program at Global Exchange;

a San Francisco based human rights,

non-profit organization. She is a policy-

analyst, author, and activist. She is also

the lead author and editor of The True

Cost of Chevron: An Alternative An-

nual Report.

Antonia Juhasz was in town to

talk about her new book at College of

Southern Nevada’s Cheyenne campus

on Thursday, October 17th, where she

took a little time to speak with me about

her newest book. Juhasz was reasonable,

down to earth and very compelling.

Her first book, The Bush Agen-

da: Invading the world one economy at

a time, focused on four corporations and

their relationship to the Bush Adminis-

tration. Three of those corporations were

related to the oil industry. Juhasz then

realized there just wasn’t enough infor-

mation about oil. The industry had risen

in importance during the Bush Ad-

ministration, and “We just didn’t have a

“When there’s less supply it pushes the price up, so that’s why Californians and Nevadans have the

highest gas prices in the country,” said Juhasz.

book about it. I set out to

fill that hole.”said Juhasz “I

wrote the book and wrote

it quickly so that it would

come out in time for the

2008 election.”

When asked how

the oil industry affects the

economy, she explained it

this way:

Oil is really the

underpinning of

the entire economy, and when

we had the financial collapse,

it didn’t start when the banks

were having problems. When

it started it was the beginning

of 2007, when oil went to one

hundred dollars a barrel. It was

when the economy all around

the world started having prob-

lems being able to purchase

oil. Businesses couldn’t even

purchase oil; even businesses

that run on oil, like airlines and

trucking and grocery stores.

Agriculture that depended on

oil as a resource started suffer-

ing. Governments started shift-

ing towards buying oil, which

means, they’re not spending

money on other things they

need, and we started to see the

underpinnings of financial col-

lapse. That then teetered off the

edge with the larger financial

collapse, so any change in the

oil sector just reverberates

everywhere.

Juhasz also

explained how Nevada

is specifically affected.

Nevada gets its oil piped

in from California, and

there are four companies

that basically control all of

the production of oil, and

restricts how much oil gets

refined into gas.

“When there’s less supply it

pushes the price up, so that’s why Cali-

fornians and Nevadans have the highest

gas prices in the country,” said Juhasz.

Juhasz became an activist while

CONTINUES PAGE 16


in high school and became involved

with her school, and the local college

divesting from South Africa to help end

the apartheid regime. Seeing how a little

action at such

a young age

could make

such a differ-

ence taught

her a lot about

how change

can happen.

Juhasz has

been an activ-

ist ever since.

In the end,

there are some things that all Ameri-

cans, regardless of their political beliefs,

can embrace: democracy, doing the right

thing, paying attention to what’s going

on in your community and county, and

getting involved. Our Constitution,

after all, begins with “We the people…”

So, whatever you believe in, and

whatever po-

litical party you’re

aligned with, try

to be open minded

and reasonable,

and do some

research. You just

might be surprised

by what you find.

As everyone is

experiencing what it really

means to be in a bad economy (i.e. high

unemployment rates, impossible hous-

ing markets, and the unsuccessful trickle

down of bailout money), business is

booming for those involved in the plight

of educating others. According to www.

fafsa.com, a website devoted to helping

students find resources for financial aid,

“The demand on student aid has

been climbing as the recession batters

family budgets, parents’ jobs become

eliminated, and self-employed parents

experience business downturns.” In

other words: people that can’t find a

job, just go back to school. It would not

be unreasonable to ask whether these

people return to school for intellectual

gain, to learn a new trade in order to

increase their job market opportunities,

or because of the student aid check.

Nevertheless, going back to

school is exactly what millions of people

are doing. Whether it is to obtain a

primary degree or receive a higher

degree, two and four-year college enroll-

ment is up tremendously according to

the census bureau. When interviewing

Kevin Eichelberger, a senior account

manager at one of the top educational

book publishing companies, he said

“Business always goes up for us when

the economy is down...especially now

that the government is providing funds

for the schools in addition to businesses

that already contribute money to educa-

tion.

President Obama is also on

board, urging Americans to further their

education. On his website www.barack-

obama.com, he pledges to “Continue to

make higher education more afford-

able,” with one way being the expan-

bad eCoNomy = biG buSiNeSS iN hiGher learNiNG


sion of Pell grants. Aside from the Pell

grants, many people are acquiring loans

which are to be paid back. These lenders

are now dealing with a large amount

of students that have loans racking up

interest. The interest on these loans

alone make way more money for these

companies than this recession could

offer any middle -class American. In the

end, it works for both sides; the student

receives a higher education therefore

improving his/her chances of getting

better opportunities, and the schools,

book publishers, and companies like

Sallie Mae, get to roll in the dough. The

question is, will these students actually

receive better opportunities after gradu-

ation? Will there be jobs available? Will

there be credit extended to start new

businesses? And will there be new hope

for individuals and families? With the

new economy focused largely on health

care reform, tax cuts, and going green

campaigns, let’s all hope that returning

to school doesn’t just fill the pockets of

those endorsing higher education, but

eventually fill the pockets of those that

need it most, the middle-class American

fighting for the chance to obtain the

American dream.

aWard WiNNiNG eyelaSheSThe holidays are here, and your family is coming. Blow Them away wiTh your fake, Thick, long lashes.

by OLGA VIZCARRA Fashion & Beauty Editor

Almost all women complain about their eyelashes. Either they’re too short, too long, too thin, or too

thick -anything but perfect. Good thing for women there are several options to enhance one’s look. From fake eyelashes to eyelash implants to even eyelash ex-tensions- there are all sorts of solutions. Any medical procedure will undoubt-edly be extremely expensive, and unless you have a series of Benjamin Franklin bills to spare, the easiest and cheapest way to get A-List Hollywood eyelashes is by purchasing “falsies” at a near by drug store.

So how do those A-List celebrities manage to fake having long, thick, sexy, luscious lashes? Tear this page out, because the simplest and easiest way to apply eyelashes is in this article. Though applying them can be quite the chal-lenge, you’ll have enough time to prac-tice for those upcoming holiday parties.

WHAT YOU’LL NEED

1. Eyelash Glue

2. Pair of Eyelashes

3. Eyelash Curler

4. Mascara

HOW-TO APPLY EYELASHES

1. Take your eyelash glue and ap-ply it to the rim of the eyelash.

2. Wand it back and forth for 30 seconds. The dried, gooey glue will grab on to your skin allow-ing your fake eyelash to stay put

all day.

3. Keep your eyes closed for one minute. Make sure you don’t open your eyes.

AFTER EYELASHES ARE AP-PLIED

1. Take your eyelash curler and begin crimping from the root of your eyelash all the way to the tip. (Don’t worry they won’t fall off )

2. Apply one coat of mascara for day, or two for night.

Growing up as a middle class white boy, Hip–Hop had the obvi-ous allure. My friends and I sagged

our pants, proclaimed to be “Straight Outta Compton!” and had Chronic 2001 memorized the day it was released. To this day, the proper mix of a raw beat and clever lyric hits my brain like a euphoric drug. Although today I tend to search the underground, for the Hip-Hop that flies under the radio waves.

Hip-Hop is a product of our genera-tion. I believe that’s part of the reason

so many of us love it so much. Hip-Hop is an entire culture, born with us, but

able to carry on its messages long after we are gone. These are but a few of my

favorite artists with a message. If you

haven’t heard of someone, look them up. If you have, listen again because it’s just

that good. Remember, if The Revolu-

tion will not be televised, it will have to be musical.
