Officer hospitalized after crash By MATT BALLINGER Daily Titan Staff
An accident sent a motorcycle police officer and a La Habra man to the hospital Monday, and Fullerton Police blocked off about a mile of Chapman Avenue for the investigation. Senior Officer Wayne Dale was traveling east on Chapman when Ruben Sanchez, who was driving a green, Dodge Neon, pulled into the intersection of Chapman and Mountain View Place, police said. It wasnʼt clear if he was turning or going straight, Police Sgt. Linda King said. The officer broadsided the Neon and was thrown about 35 feet. Daleʼs shoulder was broken; he had a large laceration on one arm, and he had broken ribs and a punctured lung, King said. Three windows on the Neonʼs driverʼs side were broken: the front driverʼs side, the rear driverʼs side and the rear windshield. The carʼs airbags were deployed, and paramedics had to use the Jaws of Life to pry Sanchez from the car. A spokeswoman at UCI Medical Center in Orange said Sanchez, who is in his mid-30s, is in fair condition. Senior Officer Wayne Daleʼs motorcycle was totaled, King said. Its front wheel was mangled, and pieces of the bike were strewn about the intersection. Dale was thrown off his bike and slid several feet before coming to a stop in the middle of Chapman Avenue, King said. As officers investigated the crash, Daleʼs helmet lay in the street. Bullets from his magazine – which is made of plastic and likely broke as he slid, King said – were marked with spray paint. The investigation is ongoing, police said.

Anthropology students OC questions to take on basket task dam breakage, flood dangers By KARI HAMANAKA
Disney
A darkened museum. Empty chairs pushed neatly into a table. Black scrawling on a whiteboard that reads: • Raw materials. • How/Technology/Production Sequence. • Types/Functions. • Museum of Man. This was the scene in Room 424 of McCarthy Hall where eight Cal State Fullerton students met last month to start their Anthropology 498 project. The goal of the class, a museum practicum, is to create a museum exhibit that will be unveiled at the start of the spring semester. The eight student curators donʼt know what will be on display, only that it will include baskets. “[The exhibit] has to be done in such a way that grabs people in,” said Jared Anders, a junior anthropology major in the class.
“You can show the unusual aspects [of baskets] or the process you donʼt normally see, maybe a unique design.” Instead of people seeing only baskets as they pass through the fourth floor of McCarthy Hall in the spring, Anders said he hopes the final project he and his classmates create will prompt people to say, ʻOh, wait a minute, whatʼs that?ʼ Each year, the class is responsible for the execution of an exhibit in the anthropology departmentʼs teaching museum: 1,000 square feet of what could be considered the ultimate real-life practice on how to curate an exhibit. “The class is exciting,” said Susan Parman, chair and professor of anthropology. “It depends upon collaborative work, how the students work together.” Not only do the students come up with the subject matter for the exhibit, but they must learn to write grant proposals and press releases, as well as work with outside museums to borrow items for display. Much of the planning takes place throughout the fall semester. Afterwards, during the winter break, the actual exhibit is put together for the opening in

the spring. Still in its early stages, the 498 class brainstormed ideas on potential sources for borrowing items to display, as well as coming up with the exhibitʼs main theme. Coming up with a statement that is not too complex and that covers a broad area is the biggest challenge the group faces, Anders said. The classʼs instructor, Nancy Jenner, an archaeology curation technician, said she hopes one of the lessons the class learns over the course of the semester is “to really think about how do you make something accessible to a museum visitor.” The museumʼs first exhibit opened in 1999, after the Anthropology Department received approval for a $1 million grant from the National Science Foundation in 1994. The money transformed what used to be chemistry labs into what is now the museum. Sitting alongside this teaching museum are newly constructed labs, a conference room and offices in MH 426.

Scientists, officials address possibility of local water hazards By CARMELLIA MUNGUIA Daily Titan Staff
As cleanup continues along the Gulf Coast, some California residents are questioning whether a similar disaster could happen here. In Californiaʼs past, communities along the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta and in the Santa Ana Riverʼs flood zone have suffered catastrophic damages. After a 1938 flood in Southern California that wiped out all the bridges on the Santa Ana River, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers started building concrete flood channels to control the direction of the river. The diversion caused large boulders carried by a natural riverbed to settle along the path, and the river changed course. Jeff Knott, a Cal State Fullerton
geology professor, who has an interest in environmental and engineering geology, said Orange County has the most managed basins in the world. “Built concrete channels and debris basins have reduced the hazard significantly,” Knott said. “They are designed for large events.” John Fleischman, a spokesman for Orange Countyʼs Offices of Emergency Services, said the county prepares for flooding. According to Fleischman, if the Prado Dam – which prevents flooding of the lower Santa Ana River – broke, only a few houses would be in jeopardy. The water held by Prado Dam is periodically released to avoid any overflow that may occur during heavy rainfall. But Lake Perrisʼ dam, in western Riverside County, concerns local officials who say studies indicate that a strong earthquake could cause the top of the dam to fail. Officialsʼ concern about the conFLOOD 4

Karen Wong, right, visits the Avalon Assisted Living Community to show Janice Koller how to use her new television remote control, which is specially designed for people with vision loss.
The alarm in Karen Wongʼs Fullerton apartment goes off at 6:45 on Monday mornings. Then itʼs into rush-hour traffic to make it to the Dayle McIntosh Center in Garden Grove by 8 a.m. Thatʼs where sheʼs working on an internship for her masterʼs degree in gerontology. She works there till 3 oʼclock; then itʼs back on the road to get to class by 4 p.m. When class ends at 7 p.m., itʼs time to go home and study. Tuesday begins much the same as Monday: Wong leaves her apartment to be in Orange by 8 a.m. – sheʼs helping a friend whoʼs started a business there. Then itʼs back to Fullerton for her teaching assistant duties in Joe Weberʼs sociology of aging class till 7 p.m.
Wednesday begins at an optometry office in Baldwin Park, followed again by teaching assistant duties till 7 p.m. Thursday, Friday and Saturday sheʼs in Mission Viejo at an ophthalmology office. Sundays are usually spent with family in West Covina and doing homework. Then it starts all over again with that 6:45, Monday-morning alarm. How does she keep it all straight? “It doesnʼt feel like a lot,” Wong said. “It just feels like youʼre having a good day.” Wongʼs schedule is all over the map, and it doesnʼt leave much “me time.” But she says she works with kind, flexible people, and that makes it all OK. She also loves what she does. “Itʼs not like taking classes… Itʼs quite fun,” she said. Thatʼs probably because sheʼs found her niche. Wong has specific interests: aging and vision loss. And through her masterʼs program in gerontology and her internship at the Dayle McIntosh Center, sheʼs able to stimulate both. The Dayle McIntosh Center is a nonprofit organization that helps aging
people become more independent. For people who have trouble seeing, vision-loss specialists will assess a personʼs needs and often make a house call to set up equipment, such as a talking clock or a phone with inch-square buttons. One of Wongʼs first trips was to the home of a legally blind woman who had fallen – she couldnʼt get up for two days. The Dayle McIntosh Center provided a system so she could call 911 with the push of a button. “Thereʼs a lot of people out there that donʼt know such a thing exists,” Wong said. But itʼs not just that people donʼt know about programs such as those at the Dayle McIntosh Center. Wong said that as people – especially baby boomers – age, they often have difficulty adjusting. “We live in a young world, where everyone is trying to ignore the aging factor,” she said. But aging is inevitable, and often there are physical changes – to hearing, vision, muscles, bones, joints INTERN

BAGHDAD, Iraq – Iraqi militants, run out of their northern stronghold in Tal Afar for the second time in a year, counterattacked with an Internet propaganda offensive Monday that put a bounty of about $200,000 on the heads of top Iraqi leaders. Violence flared again in the ancient city late Monday when Iraqi soldiers trapped militants in basement hideouts, killing 40 militants in fierce combat, the military said.

Faculty, staff commuters offered monetary rewards CSUF program gets mixed reviews from campus community By KARI HAMANAKA Daily Titan Staff
Katie Highland, a student assistant at Cal State Fullertonʼs Pollak Library, rides her bike to campus three times a week. When she does drive a car, she opts for her hybrid. “I think itʼs better,” Highland said of riding her bike. “Itʼs good exercise; Iʼm a bike junkie.” The senior English and philosophy major was unaware that the Commuter Choice Program at CSUF offers monetary incentives for alternative commuters like herself. Designed for full or part-time faculty and staff, the program – in a nationwide attempt to reduce traffic and lower pollution from car emissions – include rewards for campus commuters who carpool, ride a bike, walk or use transit. “People might not think about [how they get to work]. I know people who work here [in the library] and live closer than I do and drive,” Highland said. “I think [alternative commuter programs] help. I think employers have a responsibility to [offer these programs], especially since I work for the state.” Under Rule 2202 of the Southern California Air Quality Management District code, it is not just organizations owned by the state that must provide these kinds of incentives. Any employer with more than 250 employees must offer alternative commuting choices. These alternatives must be offered to employees who drive to work between the peak commute hours of 6 a.m. to 10 a.m. Specific incentives offered to CSUF employees include: reserved parking for carpoolers, $10 to $21
in Titan Tender each month for walking or riding a bike to campus, and subsidies for riding the bus or vanpooling. Riding the bus free is one alternative both university employees and students can use to their advantage. Employees on the south wing of the library encode the Titan cards of approximately 70 Orange County Transportation Authority bus riders each day, according to Vivian Valadez, a student assistant who processes these cards. Valadez, like other employees on campus, drives to work alone from her home in Norwalk. The only exception to her private commute is the one day each week when she carpools with her sister. “I wouldnʼt want to drive with someone I donʼt know,” Valadez said of carpooling. “Iʼd rather come by myself. If I lived closer, Iʼd probably take the bus.” University faculty and staff who take part in the Commuter Choice Program log their daily commute to campus on a form, which is monthly used to verify eligibility for incentives or subsidies. Registration for the program and eligibility for incentives are all done through CSUFʼs Parking and Transportation Services. The monetary incentives are taxed each month as income with the exception of bus and vanpool subsidies. Despite commuter incentives, some of the universityʼs employees choose not to take part in the Commuter Choice Program and say that the program is ineffective at reducing traffic. “I think everyone still uses their cars,” said Prudence Dacillo, a graduate student in the credential program. Dacillo works in the Titan Shops and does not take part in the Commuter Choice Program. She gets to campus either by bus or by
driving her boyfriendʼs car and parking on Commonwealth Avenue. “Itʼs going to take a lot more than that [program] to change things,” Dacillo said. Others believe that programs such as those offered to CSUF employees do aid in reducing traffic. “Our daily lifestyle and consumption choices have a large impact on environmental quality,” said Francisco Arcaute, a spokesman for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, in an e-mail interview. “And even small changes in our everyday routines can lead to greater improvements.” CSUF, along with other universities, such as Cal State Los Angeles and Cal State Dominguez Hills, appear on the Best Workplaces for Commuters list, created by the Partnership for Public Service. “The Environmental Protection Agency encourages the use of ridesharing and public mass transportation,” Arcaute said. “We fully endorse and support incentives that accomplish this goal since such efforts can reduce traffic congestion, energy consumption and vehicular pollution.” Back in the library at CSUF, Highland voiced an opinion similar to Arcauteʼs about the positive effects of employers offering alternative commuting options for employees. As a student assistant, Highland – along with teaching and graduate assistants – is not eligible for the universityʼs Commuter Choice Program. She said that she still supports alternative commuting options, not only for environmental reasons, but also because it might get more bike riders out on the road. “As a bike rider, you want more people riding their bikes,” she said. “The more there are of us out there, the more [drivers] will look out for us.”

Apartment hunters resort to Web sites to save time, money By CHISATO KANEGAE Daily Titan Staff
Housing prices are still on the rise in Southern California, so itʼs no surprise that college students have a tough time finding a roommate or a place to live. Cal State Fullerton students have the choice of checking newspapers, fliers posted around campus, online resources and other

sources of information. Senior Huy Dang looked online to find a place to live. He said he searched Web sites like ForRent. com and Roommates.com to find a location. Dang said he wants to buy a house, but the expenses are overwhelming. He is also looking for roommates to share the house but said it is difficult finding people. “Personally, I donʼt like to move in with people I donʼt know,” Dang said. Senior Craig Stansfield, who already owns a home, has roommates staying at his house. To find a roommate, he said he
placed an ad in PennySaver that cost him around $65. Another student, sophomore Joan Fidelson, looked for roommates and apartments last semester by searching online for housing – on and off campus. In addition, students have the option of looking for classified ads in the newspaper for places to live. Roommate-wanted ads are posted all over campus so students have the option of taking down phone numbers of prospective rommates. However, most students seem to resort to online help when it
Tuesday, September 13, 2005 3
comes to finding a roommate. Web sites like Craigslist.com are widely used by students to find a place to live. Dang said he used a wide variety of sites, which included Craigslist.com, to look for roommates and a place to live. Another Web site, iHomeConnect.com, does not have the same CSUF following, but students like freshman Chidi Onyekwere said theyʼd give it a try. “What if [Web sites charge] me a lot and I donʼt get the information I need,” Onyekwere said about other housing Web sites. “You pay $50, $25 and they give
you nothing. It doesnʼt make any sense.” Onyekwere said that housing is too expensive in Orange County and that students shouldnʼt have to pay extra fees for information. Tim Bradbury, founder of iHomeConnect.com, agrees with Onyekwere about expensive housing in Southern California and understands college studentsʼ tight budgets. “College students [are] already straight-tight for money,” Bradbury said. “We donʼt need to be shilling out dough for things that will not benefit us.” Bradburyʼs site is more widely
used by students from USC and UCLA, since their main bases are located in Los Angeles, the Valley and San Diego. “We got two or three,” Bradbury said of the number of responses from the Fullerton area. “Not anything astronomical. We cover all of Southern California. Itʼs just how fast the word gets out.” With the expense of buying a house or renting an apartment still high, students rely heavily on Web sites with free services to find a home or roommate. “Free is always good,” Stansfield said about Web sites that offer free services.
Film Festival seeks to recognize, motivate aspiring young talent
for best director; $500 for best screenplay; and an opportunity to win an all expense paid trip to the festival. “I always encourage students to submit their work to festivals because it gives them an audience,” said Ed Fink, chair of Cal State Fullertonʼs Radio, TV, and Film Department. “Sometimes someone in that audience can help them get their careers started.” One of the three judges who will decide on overall best film is Jennifer Sandler, director of promotions at New Line Cinema. Professors from various universities will also evaluate and judge. “This is a very well respected festival,” said Jule Selbo, a screenwriting professor at CSUF. “It can act as an entrée for students into the professional world.” The festival will also give away
additional prizes for audience members including Glidecam 4000 Pro, Movie Magic Screenwriter software, and Story View software. Other prizes include DVDs and festival memorabilia. The festival will be held at the Texas Union Theater at the University of Texas, Austin on Oct. 23. According to the festivalʼs Web site, last years winners represented universities such as Arizonaʼs Pima Community College, the University of Miami, the University of North Texas, along with the University of Texas, Austin. The festival anticipates over 200 entries this year and has already received international applications from Australia and several other countries. For more information visit www.moviebytes.com.
International students tell Second annual filmmaking stories of life in America competition ready to roll Scholars across continents adapt to life on CSUF campus By KEMBANG REMBULAN Daily Titan Staff
While some people try to complete their college work without leaving their bedroom, some people cross an ocean to go to school. Over 700 international students are enrolled at Cal State Fullerton from countries all over the world. “I love it here and I am used to the lifestyle,” said Cindy Lo, a marketing major from Taiwan. Lo has spent two years in California and a year in Minnesota. Nichole Ng, an international student from Singapore, said she left her family back home – just so she can study in America. When Ng was living in Asia, she had to get up at 5 a.m. and was not even home by dinnertime because her school created her schedule. “I think American education is not so stifling compared to education in Asia – [here] students can make their own schedule,” Ng said.
Life as an international student in America is not always fun and easy. Student visa holders are expected to be enrolled in 12 units or more every semester and maintain a 2.0 GPA in order to stay in the country. For international students, other challenges include high tuition costs. Besides the basic registration fees, they pay an additional $339 per unit. “The tuition is not that affordable for some people – that is why they are so motivated in getting good grades,” Ng said. Because international students are prohibited from working offcampus, most are being supported financially by their parents or a company sponsor. “I am going to try to get an oncampus job,” said Liz Narillos, an international student from Spain who saved her money to study in America. Prior to being admitted at an American university, an international student must pass the Test of English as a Foreign Language. The test is a way of measuring a non-native speakerʼs language ability. Even after passing that test, some international students
still have trouble understanding American grammar, spelling and punctuation. Sometimes, they join a club on campus in order to practice their English with American students. “I learned English since I was 12-years-old,” Narrillos said. Homesickness is another challenge international students face. Although Ng lives in the U.S. with her boyfriend, an international student from Taiwan, she sometimes misses her high school friends and her native food. Ng plans to visit home to see her family at the beginning of next year. She said she really loves living in America and doesnʼt want to work in Singapore any more. “I am going to try to get a working visa so I can still stay here,” Ng said. She said sheʼs going to get an internship at the beginning of the spring semester and canʼt wait to show her college degree to her family and tell them that all her hard work has finally paid off. Ng also said that studying abroad not only has academic benefits, but cultural ones too: She has many friends from all over the world. “I learned a lot of new things and itʼs a great life experience,” Ng said.

Governor plans to curb power of labor unions, legislators The Associated Press
RIVERSIDE – Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger kicked off his campaign Monday in support of a Nov. 8 special election he says is needed to curb the power of labor unions and state legislators and rein in state spending. Critics of the election have attacked the governor for weeks, saying its $50 million cost is a waste of taxpayersʼ money. Schwarzenegger told about 200 employees and invited guests at the cavernous warehouse of K&N Air Filters that the initiatives are crucial to reform efforts that began with the recall election two years

So learning how to budget expenses is yet another lesson these students will learn in the coming months. The teaching museum is unique compared to other museums in that it has no permanent collection of items for visitors to see. Instead, the exhibit changes annually with each new set of students enrolled in the class.

ago that put him in office. K&N makes performance filters for automobiles. “I want you and I need your help again,” he said. The governor is backing three measures on the Nov. 8 ballot that would cap state spending, strip lawmakers of the power to draw political boundaries and lengthen the probationary period for teachers from two years to five. “The same union bosses are all sitting there, the same legislators are still there, the same special interests, corporations, all those forces are still there,” he said. The measures have drawn angry opposition from a coalition of labor unions including teachers, nurses and firefighters, who have spent millions on television ads discrediting them as an attack on working people and accusing Schwarzenegger of misrepresent-
ing himself when he ran for office two years ago. The criticism was shrugged off by the Republican governor, who also was meeting privately with President Aleksander Kwasniewski of Poland while in Southern California on Monday. “Of course Iʼm bloody, yes. But unbowed,” he said. Although polls show him with job approval ratings at a record low, Schwarzenegger turned on the charm during his hour-long appearance. Wearing a gray suit and an open-collared shirt, he presided at a sort of theater-in-the-round, ushered on and off stage to the strains of rock music. He answered about a half-dozen questions from a friendly, GOPdominated audience. Riverside County is a Republican stronghold and among the fastest-growing regions in the state.
“Many museums are basically to show off treasures,” Parman said. “We want our museum as a way for people to think about ideas.” The goal is not only to get visitors thinking, but the student curators to think as well. “Every museum is going to have its own standards and practices,” Jenner said, “but I want [students] to come away with an understanding of the practices that go into making a museum: the proper care, borrowing, curating.... The proper way of doing things.” The eight students are in the process of experiencing all of these lessons Jenner hopes that they will take with them from the class. Anders said he looks forward most to learning about, “the experience of what goes into an exhibit and how to put up the proper information [for visitors].” Anders, who hopes to work in a museum after he graduates,
became interested in anthropology after reading a Greek mythology book from cover to cover and watching “Indiana Jones.” While the general topic of baskets for the upcoming exhibit may not yet be the equivalent of a Greek classic or an adventurous movie, Anders believes the class will figure out a way to make the subject attractive to a wide range of visitors. “[A basket] tells people about the different adaptations [of the people who used them],” said Anders, “the way [people] weaved it together for constructive purposes, the lifestyles of people, how they lived from day to day.” All of these ideas and messages will be planned in the following months, but for now the museum remains dark with remnants of the past exhibitʼs fliers. However, come beginning of Spring semester, the new exhibit will open and, as Anders hopes, will reveal something more than just baskets.
noticed that people tend to withdraw from society once their eyesight begins to deteriorate. She wants to help them gain the courage to overcome that. “I think a lot of times weʼre out of touch with reality,” she said. But working with people who have disabilities is a good way to find out whatʼs normal for somebody else, she said. One of her goals is to get that message out. Sheʼs considering pursuing a doctorate degree and then teaching in the gerontology field. The instructor that Wong is a teaching assistant for – Joe Weber, coordinator of gerontology academic programs – says Wong stood out very soon after he met her. “She was one of those students
that was really soaking everything up,” Weber said. He added, “After I read her first couple assignments, I could tell that she was heads above some of the other students on campus.” As a teaching assistant, Wong has the usual duties of helping with paperwork, but sheʼs also adept at leading discussions, Weber said. She encourages students to draw on personal experiences and to be more active in the class conversation. “The other students really look up to her,” Weber said. Maybe itʼs the English accent – Wong lived in Bath, England, till she was 18; her parents immigrated there from Hong Kong before she was born – that draws students in. Perhaps the leadership: Wong is the president of Sigma Phi Omega, a national professional and academic society that focuses on gerontology. Maybe itʼs the affability. Or the commitment to something outside herself. Or the confidence.
However, Schwarzeneggerʼs chief political strategist, Mike Murphy, said public meetings with a wider and more open audience range were planned later in the campaign. “This is just day one. Weʼve got eight weeks to go, which is a long time in politics,” he said. Schwarzenegger didnʼt unveil any TV commercials or offer any details of the campaign during the town hall-style meeting. But he did repeat the general theme he used to great success in his 2003 campaign: that entrenched special interests and politicians are spending California into oblivion. He took aim, especially, at the public employee unions he has feuded with all year. “Iʼm talking about the union bosses now that want to control and want to drive our taxes up,” he said.
“It is unfair to treat those public employees much better than they treat you and then you have to pay the taxes and foot the bill.” Schwarzenegger is expected to announce later this week that he will seek a second term. While not addressing the issue specifically, he did give a brief campaign-style rundown of his accomplishments in office, including reducing the $14-billion deficit without raising taxes (the deficit for next year is now estimated at $4.7 billion). Opponents say he accomplished that in part by persuading voters to pass a multibillion-dollar bond measure that must eventually be repaid. Schwarzenegger was asked why there was a need to hold a special election at a cost to Californians of $50 million rather than putting his initiatives on the ballot during next yearʼs regularly scheduled elec-
tions. He said the state canʼt afford to wait. “Thereʼs many people that say this is a waste of money to have this election,” he said. “I say it is a waste of democracy not to have the election.” Recent polls show none of the initiatives winning a majority of public support. However, Todd Harris, spokesman for Schwarzeneggerʼs California Recovery Team, said the campaignʼs own recent poll of 600 people showed “overwhelmingly positive” results for all three measures. He declined to provide numbers. Murphy, the governorʼs strategist, said he wasnʼt worried about the jump opponents had on spreading their message. “The governorʼs an expert at peaking at the right time in competitions,” he said.
Disneyland fanatics flock to Hong Kong grand opening Long-time fans pay visit to most recent international park The Associated Press
HONG KONG – Derrick Johnson was so elated when he beat thousands of people to become the second person to charge into the brand new Hong Kong Disneyland that he dropped to his knees, raised his arms and bowed to worship the Sleeping Beauty Castle. The 46-year-old fundraiser from Placentia who had a Golden Mickey Mouse cap on his head and wore a khaki vest covered with Disney pins, was among a group of Disney fanatics who flew in especially to attend the parkʼs grand opening Monday. “I love Disney. Itʼs just something I do,” Johnson said. Most Disney devotees had booked their tickets and carefully planned their trips months ahead of the event, and many from the U.S. and Japan arrived hours early in order to become the first people inside the park. Among about 30 people camping out on the ground outside the parkʼs entrance was Steven W.

Smith, from Azusa, who said he arrived five hours before the official opening time. “This is the fifth [Disney] opening Iʼve been to,” said the 48year-old in a Mr. Incredible shirt. Smith boasted that he once started a queue and waited 25 hours to get into a Disney park. Smith, who said he works at a race track, said he has nearly 1,000 Disney pins at home as well as other figurines. “Iʼm mostly looking out for dated and limited stuff today,” he added. Smith and his friends had evidently come prepared. Robert Sher, from New York City, and Thomas Taffinder, from Orlando, Calif., came armed with sophisticated audio visual gear and a mental map of the park memorized from a virtual Internet tour. “Weʼre both very dedicated. We booked our Disney hotel rooms in March, and weʼve waited for this for a very long time,” said Sher, who used to work at a Disney store. Taffinder said he is a security worker for the Orlando park. Both are members of a Disney club called the National Fantasy Fan Club, he said. The two devotees have been to all the Disney parks around the world and easily reeled Disney facts and dates from the company
history. Sher said he visits the California park “every couple of weeks.” Also at the front of the line were Taiwanese fans Faye Tsai and her friend, who said they have never been to a Disney park. In fact, the 24-year-old said they have never set foot outside Taiwan. “We came here especially for this opening,” she said, adding that they bought the tickets as soon as they were available in July. “I like Disney cartoons and Iʼm really excited. I know this park is small, but Iʼve never been to any of the parks so it doesnʼt matter.” What keeps these grown-ups hooked on to the cartoon characters? “They keep on reinventing different things, unlike Universal or Six Flags,” said Sher. “The idea of Disney doing another foreign country, with the Chinese Communist government – going for business like that is just amazing.” Dougie Robertson, a 35-yearold businessman from Edinburgh, Scotland, said his favorite thing about Disney was the cheerful workers, or cast members in Disney lingo. “The cast members make people smile. It takes people back to their childhood. Smiling is a big thing,” he said. “I believe in the magic.”
lie in Zone A. Officials have not determined the potential water surface elevation, but those who live in Zone A, are required to buy flood insurance. Zone X is identified as minimal to moderate flood hazard. Cities under this zone are not required to buy flood insurance since the potential for flooding is lower. The cities that lie in Zone X are southeast Anaheim, southwest Orange, east Garden Grove and Westminster, west Santa Ana and
Fountain Valley. Ron Stork, a member of Friends of the River, said that communities successfully lobby governments to remain outside of hazard zones. “Communities vigorously resist being mapped along flood areas and have government move them to where they would not be considered a potential hazard zone.” According to officials, California leads in dam safety and was the first to have dams inspected.

The biggest save of her career
Fullerton goalkeeper Karen Bardsley overcame injury, self-doubt to maintain her dominance at the net By JUAN ACEVES Daily Titan Staff
After a successful 2002 college season and a summer soccer trip to Germany, Karen Bardsley was looking forward to greater heights during the 2003 season. However, within minutes of the first game of the season, things changed for the then 19-year-old. In September 2003, Cal State Fullerton was playing a game against the University of Washington Huskies. Halfway through the second half, Bardsley, a goalkeeper, went out to clear the ball. “I got [to the ball] a splitsecond before the University of Washington forward. She kicked my leg. I fell all over myself,” said Bardsley, the 2002 Big West Conference Freshman of Year. She knew she was hurt. She had a broken leg. Season over. “She didnʼt even get a yellow card,” Bardsley said in a halfsarcastic, half-serious tone. After the injury, Bardsley wore a cast for six months, followed by a walking boot. The time away from soccer was difficult. “I got back from Germany [as a member of the Englandʼs National team] on a high. It was pretty cool. Then all this shit happens. Now, Iʼm not going to play.” “It is scary when you are hurt,” teammate Lauren Welch said, who has known Bardsley for two years. Coming into her freshman year at CSUF in 2003, Welch had heard about the accomplishments of her new teammate and was looking forward to playing alongside Bardsley. “I love her knowledge of the game,” Welch said. When the injury hit Fullertonʼs No. 1 goalkeeper,
GABRIEL FENOY/ Daily Titan
Fullerton’s Karen Bardsley posted a record of 7-3-1 in 2004 with five shutouts to garner Big West Conference Goalkeeper of the Year honors, despite missing the first eight games of the season with a broken leg. Welch acknowledged feeling the during her tough times. He helps young season was going to be a athletes like Bardsley, who have bad one for the Titans. let their injuries get the best of The season was mediocre for them, by helping them visualize the Titans as they finished at 9-8- themselves healed. 1.

”
To her credit, Bardsley came back strong the following season and took home the Big West Conference 2004 Goalkeeper of the Year award. She also helped lead the Titans to a share of the conference title along with Cal Poly Pomona. The task was far from easy, though. “The injury was very serious, really bad,” Ravizza said. Ever-modest, Bardsley downplays her strong 2004 season. “Iʼm only at 80 percent,” she said. However, her stats prove otherwise. She posted a record of 7-3-1 with a 0.71 goals against average in 2004. Most importantly, the team played well with her guarding the net. After only winning three of their first 10 matches, the Titans ended the season on a
seven-game winning streak. Ravizza said that Bardsley used the rehab time to her advantage and came back as a better player. Teammate Erica Pryor, who came in with Bardsley as a freshman, calls her “the best keeper she has ever seen.” “We are very confident when Karen is back at the net,” Pryor said. “[She is] quiet off the field, but when the game begins Karen commands the field.” Bardsley was third in the league with five shutouts in 2004. “We all had confidence in her, but even we forgot how amazing she was,” said Pryor after she saw Bardsley come back from injury and make unbelievable saves. Bardsley acknowledges that personal ambition contributed to her strong comeback season that included being ranked No. 28 among all goalkeepers nationwide. “When Iʼm not at my best, Iʼm not a very happy person,” she said. Playing in a professional league in Europe or in the states still hovers around Bardsleyʼs mind. This summer she was on Englandʼs Under-21 Womenʼs National Team that played in 2005 Nordic Cup Tournament in Sweden. However, she acknowledges that soccer isnʼt everything now. The Art major has other interests in the like of art and graphic design. Even so, if the chance comes to play soccer at a professional level, Bardsley said she will seize the opportunity. “Iʼm keeping my options open. Itʼs a bad idea to keep yourself strapped to one idea,” said Bardsley, “but if I can continue playing, I will.”
Bonds back in action
Giantsʼ slugger goes 1-4 at plate in first game of his season The Associated Press
In his season debut for San Francisco, Bonds strode to the plate Monday night, tipped his batting helmet to the roaring, flashbulbpopping crowd, worked a 3-2 count and lined a double that fell just shy of clearing the wall in left-center. It appeared at first that Bonds had homered in his first-at bat since last October, but wait! A fan had reached over the fence and interfered with the ball, collecting it into the stands, and it was ruled a double. The scoreboard briefly flashed
“704” - which turned out to be premature. Bonds scored moments later on Ray Durhamʼs single to right. Playing for the first time following three surgeries this year on his right knee, Bonds led off the second inning for the Giants, stretching his bat above his head as he walked out of the dugout acknowledging the fans before digging in against San Diegoʼs Adam Eaton. Thus began a wild, 11-pitch atbat in which Eaton, who has given up three of Bondsʼ 703 career home runs, challenged Bonds. The crowd was on its feet all the way. The 41-year-old Bonds, resuming his quest for Hank Aaronʼs career home run record of 755, received a warm ovation when he took his spot in left field in the top of the first, tipping his hat to the cheering crowd.
New cheer squad will boost fans Metz Lets Loose No one was really prepared for Cal State Fullerton to make it to the third round of the National Invitational Tournament last Kevin Metz season. Not the Daily Titan basketball team, Sports Editor which went into Oregon Stateʼs den to upset the Beavers with an overtime buzzerbeater and then, after a convincing win over University of San Francisco, earned a trip to Washington, DC to play Georgetown. Not the athletics department, which had to book a flight the day of the game so the team could make it in time for tip-off. Not the ESPN 2 announcers who fumbled through rushed notes on “this team from Fullerton, California.” The resilient Titans didnʼt have the height. They didnʼt have a healthy Ralphy Holmes come game time. Realistically, they didnʼt have a chance against the Hoyas. But CSUF Vice President. Robert Palmer, who traveled with the team for the tournament, took note of perhaps the teamʼs biggest omissions - the cheerleaders, the dancing mascot, the roaring fans, and that crazy guy that runs back and forth with a flag waving the colors of orange and blue. Other schools had it, Fullerton didnʼt - at least not that night in the Hoyaʼs small gymnasium. Thanks to the meeting between Palmer and CSUF Dean of Students Kandy Mink that followed, we do now. Thatʼs right, CSUF will finally have cheerleaders at menʼs and womenʼs basketball games. The decision, which is becoming a reality thanks to the support of the CSUF administration, has the potential to be as good of an idea for the university and the athletics program as taking away football (and cheerleading) was a bad one back in 1991. Seeing a large organized effort like this is something special. To see 84 students - the number that came for the informational meeting last week - attend anything on this campus outside of an oversized GE class is something unique. Sports teams are the most identifiable entity of a university, even more than a top-rated performing arts college or the third largest college of business in the nation. We have many teams to be proud of and cheer for at CSUF. Now we will have a squad to lead us. Titan pride is coming to Titan Gym this fall and we should be ready. Kevin Metzʼ column appears weekly.
