Interfaith fair hosts religion professor Comparative religion professor explains interfaith issues in keynote MATTHEW MEDINA Daily Titan

According to the Fullerton Interfaith Ministerial Association (FIMA), religious diversity should be celebrated and used as a positive catalyst for improvement in the greater community. Cal State Fullerton comparative religion professor Paul J. Levesque, Ph.D., echoed that belief as the keynote guest speaker during the FIMA fair at the St. Juliana Falconieri Church in Fullerton on Sunday. In addition to speakers, the event featured representatives of multiple churches, charities and other religious organizations. All of these representatives and other attendees were encouraged to get to know one another and discuss matters of religion and local concerns. Liam McCarthy, an intercultural studies major at Hope International University, said this

event was his first experience with an interfaith organization but probably not his last. “We can’t sit in our own religions and pretend that the others don’t exist,” McCarthy said. “We can’t ignore them when they need our help or we need their help.” Among religious groups and individuals, Levesque explained the three major approaches to outside creeds and beliefs: exclusive, inclusive and pluralistic views. Exclusive beliefs hold that there is one perfect truth in terms of religion and the afterlife, and all people should follow this. The inclusive approach also says that one truth is present and knowable with current knowledge, but other faiths and their followers can contribute in smaller ways toward pursuing that truth. Adherents of pluralism say that ultimate truth exists, but humans cannot discover it with current knowledge, so all religions are equal in terms of discovering that truth and advancing spiritual development.

ASI goals reflect university plan Student teams will draft specific, actionable goals from newly approved list NEREIDA MORENO Daily Titan

The Associated Students Inc. Board of Directors has approved four goals that will mirror the university’s own strategic plan in hopes of unifying ASI and expanding the campus academic experience. The ASI Board of Directors approved the vision statement and four goals for their 2013 Strategic Plan on Sept. 3. Board of Directors chair Jonathan Kwok said approximately 100 individuals were involved in drafting the goals. Current faculty, staff and student leaders of ASI worked through a period of three strategic planning sessions held through the summer in order to draft the list. The facilitation team in charge of the strategic planning consists of ASI President Rohullah Latif, Chief Administrative Officer Carlos Navarro, Kwok and one representative from each programming board, including the Association for Intercultural Awareness, Titan Tusk Force and ASI Productions.

The International Association for the Philosophy of Sport (IAPS) provided scholars, professors and students the opportunity to exchange ideas in sport research over the weekend at the IAPS Conference on campus. Hosted by the Center for Sport Performance, international scholars and professors as well as graduate and undergraduate students held a forum of discussions on the philosophical views about sport, games, play, dance and various types of physical activities. Speakers tackled the philosophical perspectives of sports; ranging from performance enhancement, aesthetics in sports,

interdisciplinary perspectives and philosophical matters in sport. Scholars from all over the world attended the event and shared their research in English, Spanish and Japanese. It provided students with opportunities to gain insight and experience through in-depth discussions from well-respected scholars and professors. John T. Gleaves, Ph.D., an assistant professor of kinesiology at CSUF, addressed the importance of philosophical research for students. “I think the big thing with this conference was exposing the Cal State Fullerton students to what research looks like.” Gleaves talked about the significance of research and collaboration between students, professors and scholars.

OC Brew Ha Ha toasts to Fallen Firefighters Silverado’s sold out festival hosts Reel Big Fish and 70 local breweries ASHLEY BINION Daily Titan

Beer, ska music, beer, food trucks and even more beer were the center of entertainment this weekend at the fourth annual Orange County Brew Ha Ha. Local OC ska punk band Reel Big Fish performed at the sold-out grand beer fest in Siverado’s Oak Canyon Park Saturday, Sept. 7. Attendees sampled and chugged an array of 175 craft and import beers from over 70 breweries. “It’s good because there are so many varieties of craft beer here … it’s a fun environment,” said David Smith, a second time attendee. The lighter and sour Indian Pale Ale (IPA) and double IPAs were popular offerings among the breweries. “It should be consumed in a way that a good wine would be

consumed—to enjoy it and not to guzzle it because it’s hot outside,” said Brian Smith, a volunteer and Cal State Fullerton alumni. Redlands-based food company, Brewcakes, took a creative approach by using beer, wine and other types of alcohol in their entrees and desserts. Along with the copious amounts of beer were local food vendors and trucks including Slater’s 50/50, Dos Chinos, Rancho a Go Go Barbeque and the Viking Truck. Over 120 firefighters volunteered to help pour the different brews in support of the Fallen Firefighters Relief Fund. “We’re here doing a charity event pouring for the local breweries. We’ll pour and then the proceeds from the event will go to the local Fallen Firefighters Relief Fund,” said firefighter Patrick Juback, of the Orange County Fire Authority. The relief fund is designed to fund families who lost a family member in the line of duty. “I usually try to choose a

East and West collide at conference ‘Queer Talk’ series

before a match. This criterion recognizes a tribute to the solidarity of competition but does not disregard the gravity of losing against an opponent. Martial arts is a sport focused on more than beating a partner. The action is not a result but a process, Hata said. The goal of sport is to create function by experiencing meaning through problem solving. Robert Scott Kretchmar, Ph.D., a professor in Pennsylvania State University’s Department of Kinesiology, focused his presentation on the conventional aspects and internal values of sport. Kretchmar said that the quest for excellence and achievement is attractive, but so is the quest for drama, narrative unity and community. The focus in evaluation of the sport discussed by Hata, relates to the propositions of both Kretchmar and Huryca. While aspects of winning and losing play a part in the end goal of some Western sports, an influence of inner satisfaction and betterment are not excluded from practice.

At the first “Queer Talk” series of the year on Wednesday, students weighed the positive and negative effects labels can have on the LGBT community. The Lesbian Gay Bisexual and Transgender Resource Center at Cal State Fullerton held the talk which focused on labels and how these can provide a way of self-identification or a “method of self-destruction.” The weekly Queer Talk series is directed by Ashley Moore, a graduate assistant for the LGBT Resource Center. Moore guided the discussion on the effects of positive and negative labels. “They are always relevant because everyone is always being labeled,” Moore said. Those in attendance spoke on how labels provide a shorthand self-identifier within the LGBT community and to the “outside” world. For Ariana Fazio, a transfer student at Cal State Fullerton, her queer label has helped her make new friends on campus and find people with the same interests. But Fazio said labels can be a double-edged sword when other people assign them. Assigned labels such as gay, among others, are quickly associated with image. It affects the way people think about what a certain type of queer “should” look like. “Labels can be a source of empowerment for an individual in helping to tell the world who you are, what you are,” said Matthew Dalphin, a biochemistry major. During the discussion, many agreed that even within the LGBT community, labels can be wrongfully assigned. While “umbrella terms” such as queer, gay and lesbian are used as political terms, there is still debate on what the definitions of those words are.

Dalphin said if you don’t talk, dress, or act in a certain way it’s hard to be inclusive in the LGBT community because people still see you as an outsider. “These labels are hurtful in a way in that you feel like you have to conform in order to belong,” Dalphin said. During the discussion, many agreed that it is hard to identify where you fall on the queer spectrum and are judged if you swing to one side more than another. For example, the term gay is considered an absolute word, one dimensional and the most stereotypical. “Gay culturally means big, white, masculine, muscular, well-defined, wants to have kids, wants to get married … has very liberal kind of assimilationist view on what it means to be gay, rather than the plurality that exists within the community proper,” Moore said. But labels are still considered a process within the LGBT community. Most who are unsure of their specific identification try to stay away from labels, Fazio said. Fazio said when explaining to people who she is, she shies away from labels due to their negative connotations and because she is not done with her own self-processing of identification. In the future, Fazio said she hopes the LGBT Resource Center can focus on labels that often get overlooked such as lesbian and transgender, as well as intersectionality issues. Queer Talks can be helpful in different levels to talk and have structured discussions with friends, and introduce people into the queer activities on campus, Dalphin said. Dalphin said by attending Queer Talks, students can be directed to other realms of “queerness” on campus and be directed to the queer resource center where they have scholarships and resources to use, as well as Queer Straight Alliance. The LGBT Resource Center will host the next Queer Talk on Wednesday at 11 a.m.

Hardy presented The Contest and Rules: Enhancing Sport explaining how sports must adapt to the athlete through a “lens of masculinity.” According to Hardy, the event gave students the opportunity for experiential and academic growth regardless of their focus area, gaining

a broader experience of academia. Next year, the conference will be held in Brazil. Alberto Reppold, the director of faculty at The Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, will be hosting the event in 2014. As an avid professor in physical education and sports science, Reppold earned his Ph.D. in philosophy at Leeds University, England. “Next year will be the first

time this conference will be in South America. It is very important for us to have this conference in Brazil because we will have the World Cup next year and then the Olympic Games in 2016 in Rio,” Reppold said. Reppold said the idea of having this event in Brazil impacts the ethical and political perspectives of sport, influencing students to appreciate the value of sport from all over the world.

Eastern and Western sports philosophy not at odds internationally VALERIE SCHREPFERMAN Daily Titan

Solidarity and athlete inner satisfaction were a trend among speakers at the 2013 International Association for the Philosophy of Sport (IAPS) Conference this weekend at Cal State Fullerton. Takayuki Hata, a professor at Nagasaki University of Japan, evaluated an athlete’s mental and inner satisfaction, during his presentation at IAPS. According to Hata, humility and restraint, two prominent elements of the Eastern form of martial arts, assist in the individual attainment of enlightenment. The idea of enlightenment serves as the participant’s main ambition behind partaking in the sport. The objective goes beyond the practice of beating a competitor, Hata said. Voices contending the complete disaffiliation of Eastern and Western methods proposed the example of boxing competitors respectfully shaking hands

DTBRIEFS Bill targets teacher behavior

Local protests erupt against war in Syria

MATTHEW MEDINA

Gov. Jerry Brown has approved a bill meant to punish school superintendents for failing to report instances of teacher misconduct and child abuse to the state, according to the Los Angeles Times. If superintendents fail to do so within 30 days, the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing may inflict unspecified penalties. Those who are deemed to be intentionally ignoring reports of misconduct could receive misdemeanor charges and fines of up to $1,000. The bill, from Assemblyman Al Muratsuchi (D-Torrance), was motivated by a scandal in Miramonte Elementary School in Los Angeles. A subsequent state audit concluded that the Los Angeles Unified School District did not report 144 cases of teacher misconduct, or failed to report them on time. Teachers’ unions including the California Federation of Teachers, United Teachers of Los Angeles and the California Teachers’ Association were in favor of the bill, citing a need to increase accountability among superintendents.

Person found dead in car MIA MCCORMICK One person was declared dead inside a burning car on the Garden Grove Freeway (SR-22) Sunday afternoon, according to the Orange County Register. The vehicle was reported to be burning in the center divider of the freeway near Lewis Street in Garden Grove, said Chris Little, an Orange County CHP public safety dispatcher. CHP responded to the report at 1:34 p.m. on Sunday. The vehicle, a red Toyota sedan, had at least one person inside, Little said. This person, who was pronounced dead at the scene has not yet been identified to the public by authorities. CHP investigators were attempting to pinpoint the cause of the fire as well as if another vehicle was involved in the accident, Little said. According to a written statement by the coroner’s office, the red Toyota had crashed into a retaining wall on the freeway and then caught fire.

Congress poses problem for Obama MIA MCCORMICK Congress is proving to be an obstacle for President Obama in his attempt to gain their authorization for military action against Syria, according to USA Today. This information was gathered from a USA Today Network survey of senators and representatives. The poll found that only 22 senators and 22 House members are willing to express support for Obama’s proposed military response to Syria’s use of chemical weapons. This is only a small portion of the 533 total congressional lawmakers. Additionally, 19 senators and 130 House members say they will not back a resolution authorizing military strikes. House Intelligence Chairman Mike Rogers (R-Mich.) says the White House has not adequately explained the reason for the proposed strike. “I think it’s an uphill slog from here,” Rogers said.

GOALS

Continued from PAGE 1

“We all came together multiple times to figure out what we wanted to change in ASI and through all of the feedback we got through (focus groups), that’s how we created those objectives that we came into mind,” Navarro said. ASI President Rohullah Latif said the four goals outlined in the strategic plan are meant to be broad. “These goals are not going to be smart goals, they’re not going to be specific, they’re not going to be timely,” Latif said. However, after these goals, Latif said, they will have a student lead a staff of three teams of three or four students to work on creating specific, actionable goals. The specific goals are scheduled for completion by late October, Latif said. According to Navarro, there were two main goals behind creating a comprehensive strategic plan. The first was to unify ASI. “ASI is so large and there are so many divisions inside of it. We’re not just a student government—we offer the student recreation center, the children’s center. We offer scholarships and all of these different things,” Navarro said. He said the plan will bring ASI together to function as a unit. The second goal is to create a plan. “In ASI, every single year there’s new leadership,” Navarro said. He said that in order to combat the revolving door of student leaders and guide future administrations, the plan will span 5 years in order to give future leaders a structure. Navarro said the strategic plan is primarily focused on

complementing the academic experience here on campus. ASI is looking into being able to offer more spaces for students to study or offer opening up hours in the Titan Student Union to allow more students to “engage in academics.” “These are all just ideas— nothing’s quite set in stone yet,” Navarro said. Latif said ASI’s strategic plan and the university’s strategic plan intersect when discussing the student experience at Cal State Fullerton. “It’s two things—we wanted to mirror the university strategic plan as well because we are part of the university,” Latif said. “Most of our goals are gonna be aligned with the university but we do have our own vision that we have set for ourselves as well.” CSUF President Mildred García said the university is in the middle of implementing their own strategic plan. During the summer, the senior leadership team that includes all of the vice presidents, the chief of staff and all of the academic deans, gathered together to decide how to implement the plan. “We recognized right away that you can’t do everything in this strategic plan in one week–it’s a five year plan,” García said. According to García, there will be input from the academic senate, representation from the faculty, staff and from the student body all on those working groups as they implement the university’s strategic plan. There will be 11 task forces that will drive the work–each force will be comprised of six to eight people. “We’re going to have 12 reports and updates submitted by each task force and shared with the university community,” García said. “We want to be transparent, we want to be clear.”

INTERFAITH

Continued from PAGE 1

Adherents of pluralism say that ultimate truth exists, but humans cannot discover it with current knowledge, so all religions are equal in terms of discovering that truth and advancing spiritual development. Levesque emphasized the importance of inclusive and pluralistic approaches in creating interfaith organizations like FIMA. “Over the years, inclusivism and pluralistic responses have given birth to interfaith movements and interreligious dialogues that have shaped a spirit of trust, friendship and respect among people of vastly different faith traditions,” Levesque said. He said devout individuals must also be compassionate and accepting toward atheists and agnostics. “Pitting religious believers against non-believers as rivals does not contribute to building community or friendships,” Levesque said. When creating papers and studies concerning contentious topics such as evolution and gay rights, Levesque used a mix of inclusive and pluralistic approaches in an attempt to find common ground. “We found that the stronger a person believed in God, the more they did not accept evolution,” he said. He said that many of these religiously inclined individu-

als did not always understand or challenge the basis for rejecting evolution. “You can be religious and you don’t have to be anti-science,” Levesque said. Levesque said that similar themes applied to issues of gay rights. “We’re finding more and more religious groups recognizing equality completely, regardless if somebody is gay or straight.” Sofiya Alper, a member of the Unitarian Universalist Congregation in Fullerton, emphasized the pluralistic approach that she and her church have when meeting and doing charitable work.

She said that it was not challenging for her and her church to accommodate members of other religions. “We don’t ask each other where we come from,” Alper said. “We just come together to live a good life and to support each other.” Ridwan Yusuf, a representative of the Islamic Institute of Orange County, spoke highly of interfaith gatherings. “I think it’s very, very important that there is dialogue,” Yusuf said. “I think there’s a lot of misconceptions out there, and in general I think it brings some ease to people when they see a faith within their own sphere.”

Naked Juice undressed PepsiCo Inc. is guilty of falsely labeling their products as “all-natural” KYMBERLIE ESTRADA Daily Titan

A growing number of food companies have labeled their products “all natural” in an attempt to attract health-concerned customers. The problem is many of these companies falsely advertise their products in or-

der to gain a handsome profit from consumers searching for a healthier option. Back in 2011, Naked Juice, owned by PepsiCo Inc., was hit with a class action lawsuit for incorrectly marketing its products as “all natural.” PepsiCo Inc. agreed to settle for a $9 million lawsuit in which customers could receive up to $75 in accordance to the company’s false, misleading and deceptive advertisements. The complaint argued that Naked Juice products were

falsely and misleadingly labeled as “100% Juice,” “100% Fruit” and “All Natural.” In a way, corporations such as Naked Juice, are drugging consumers by adding unknown chemicals into a product labeled as “natural.” Naked Juice claimed their products contained naturally occurring vitamins found in fruits and vegetables. However, these so-called “vitamins” proved to contain unnaturally processed synthetic chemicals and fiber.

MIKE TRUJILLO / Daily Titan

Naked Juice’s “all-natural” ingredients include processed chemicals and fibers to artificially increase vitamin intake.

VISIT US AT: DAILYTITAN.COM/NEWS

Some synthetic ingredients found in Naked Juice beverages—such as Protein Zone and Blue Machine—included ascorbic acid, Fibersol-2, a digestion-resistant fiber developed by a Japanese chemical company; inulin, also known as “invisible fiber,” that artificially increases a food or beverages fiber content and others. Since the average grocery shopper tends to overlook the nutrition facts usually located at the back of the package in an eye-squinting font size, food companies highlight their “better” assets that are enlarged and more visible to consumers. The complaint points out that the “front-of-package promises that the product is ‘ALL NATURAL’ and ‘100% JUICE,’ a reasonable consumer would not assume that defendants were being deceptive and would not know to read the very-fine-print ingredient label.” But it’s no surprise that a big corporation such as PepsiCo Inc. deceptively labeled their products by using a wholesome and natural marketing approach. It is illegal for companies to falsely advertise a product. So when a customer reads “all natural,” he or she takes it for what it is. Companies have been able to use this term because according to the FDA, “it is difficult to define a food product that is ‘natural’ because the food has probably been processed and is no longer the product of the earth.” Since there is no detailed regulatory on what makes a food or beverage “all natural,” companies have been able to dance around the term in hopes that they don’t get caught. But PepsiCo Inc. isn’t the only company to have been sued for deceptive and misleading advertisement. Other companies, such as Kashi and General Mills Inc. faced an identical dispute for using GMOs, or genetically modified organisms, while claiming to be 100 percent natural and containing no artificial ingredients. But the bigger issue at hand is what the FDA is doing so that cases like these won’t happen again. Due to “resource limitations and other a0gency priorities,” the FDA has declined to adopt a formal definition of the word “natural.” Seeing that it took nine years for the FDA to define “glutenfree,” it is unlikely the agency will develop a clear-cut definition of what makes a product “natural” any time soon. Since the settlement, Naked Juice has stopped using “natural” to market its products, but continues labeling their products as “non-GMO,” despite that its products are not certified organic or non-GMO verified. No one likes a liar. Companies need to understand that although labeling their products as “natural” will turn heads and gain a shortterm profit, it will eventually bite back with an embarrassing and costly lawsuit. Consumers need to be aware that a product labeled “natural” can still contain toxic pesticides and herbicides, GMOs, antibiotics, growth hormones, sludge and irradiation. Moreover, since industrial companies have abused the term “natural,” it has therefore become meaningless. To be absolutely sure a product has not been genetically altered, consumers should seek products labeled “organic.” While the FDA does not have a set, strictly defined meaning of what makes a product “natural,” the term “organic” does. Organic products are strictly regulated by the USDA and by no means contains any genetically modified ingredients.

Zoo animals party too hard Deaths at a popular rave lead to concern over the dangers of the drug MDMA SARAH GERHARD

Daily Titan

The Electric Zoo held at Randalls Island, N.Y., was cancelled on Labor Day Sunday, after two concertgoers overdosed on the drug MDMA, or Ecstasy, as it is more commonly known. At least four others were said to be injured and suffering from the effects of Ecstasy when they were rushed to a nearby hospital. Ecstasy has become a common drug among the youth of America, targeting students interested in the raving subculture. Adolescents may view these raves simply as techno music and a good time but the problem is they are also enabling the consumption of lifethreatening drugs. According to the National Institute of Drug Abuse, symptoms of Ecstasy overdose include high blood pressure, loss of consciousness and seizures. Techno concerts or raves much like the Electric Zoo have not only increased the consumption of Ecstasy but made it popular within its own drug community. The National Institute of Drug Abuse reports that in 2011 23.8 percent of 18 to 20 year olds living in the U.S. admitted to using illicit drugs, which include Ecstasy. The recent deaths are just two of many fatalities that have occurred at raves just like Electric Zoo. Some may recall the cancellation of the popular rave, Electric Daisy Carnival in 2010 after a 15-year-old girl died from an Ecstasy overdose. The drug is not just a mind altering psychedelic but an epidemic that has reached beyond what any of us could ever imagine. Based on recent and past incidents, that number has risen and will continue to rise if something is not done to prevent this Ecstasy fueled epidemic. Some concertgoers believe that drinking water and staying hydrated while on Ecstasy is an effective precaution in avoiding overdose.

However, TIME magazine reported that while staying hydrated can reduce the risk of heat stroke tied with the effects of Ecstasy, the drug can also cause the body to retain water. So drinking too much water can be potentially fatal caused by an imbalance of electrolytes. There is also another myth within the drug community that taking a drug called Molly, which is essentially Ecstasy’s love child, is safer than Ecstasy itself because it is more pure. On the contrary, TIME magazine reported that “each hit can range from having no active drug at all, to those that could potentially cause an overdose.” The hit or miss of drugs like Molly and Ecstasy boosts their popularity because the buyers never know what they’re going to get. This fuels the drug trade to constantly create new and more pure Ecstasy pills. Promoters also play a huge part in this problem Insomniac Production, one of the biggest rave producers in the business, grossed more than $30.3 million in expenditures paid by local and nonlocal attendees in the year 2011, according to Insomniac’s economic report. Insomniac is known to have put on the Electric Daisy Carnival in Las Vegas, Nev. A business like Insomniac is not only boosting economic income but stabilizing its position in our economy so much that the government would not think twice about shutting it down; money over manners right? Despite the increase of deaths caused by Ecstasy, officials still have yet to take action in preventing or even monitoring these raves, until just recently. According to Narconon News, a drug prevention and rehabilitation website, Assemblywoman Fiona Ma drafted the Anti Raves Act of 2011. After recent events, the act might be revisited despite the public opposition it faced a few years ago. If the act succeeds, all raves in California will be banned. The ban would not fix the Ecstasy overdose problem, but it would help make significant improvements and most importantly, save lives.

Nott describes their sound as “glorious melodic noise.” The band blends in a punk and classic rock sound, with some hints of pop. Their inspiration comes from bands like the Pixies, The Clash and The Beatles. Before Beachwood Coyotes, Nott and Root were in a punk rock band called Drive A. The band called it quits after five years. Nott and Root decided to continue their musical aspirations and began recruiting musicians to form a band that would create a whole new sound. “Make it Happen” achieves a much more melodic sound than Drive A’s punk theme. Its catchy chorus and classic guitar riffs invite a familiar, yet

original sound. Beachwood Coyotes recently released the music video for “Make it Happen.” The video captures timelapse shots of bright white clouds sailing over Los Angeles juxtaposed with grayscale scenes of Jangles the cat, the band’s unofficial mascot, gazing into the camera lens. The video captures the band’s sense of humor as well as artistic character. “We did this all at our apartment, had some friends over, put some music on and just made an event out of trying to get this cat to sit still,” Nott said. “It was the most simple, cost-free concept we could think of at the time. And plus we love cats.” Their repertoire of songs displays Beachwood Coyotes’ dynamic sound. Songs such as “Work” follow a darker theme than their upbeat single. “Everyone I Know” has a relaxed rhythm that builds into a powerful crescendo. In 2012, shortly after Beachwood Coyotes was formed, the band posted an ad on Kickstarter to raise money to start recording their EP. Kickstarter, an online fundraising forum dedicated to creative projects, proved to be the perfect platform and the “kick start” the band needed. Within 30 days, the Beachwood Coyotes reached over their

$500 goal, while gaining over 20 supporters along the way. Their success on Kickstarter allowed them to record with Robert Schwartzman, lead vocalist for Rooney, who recently released his first solo album, Double Capricorn. Nott said the band is still working in the studio and will announce a release date for their full-length album soon. The band’s diversity and dedication to the craft promises a unique and well-rounded album. Beachwood Coyotes’ performance at CSUF is just one of many stops on their California tour. Nott anticipates expanding the tour nationwide once the full album is released. “We love performing live, we just plug in our instruments and play,” Nott said. “No tapes, backing tracks or computers. We have a genuine sound with no additives, and for that I am proud.” Success, as defined by Nott, is more than just the number of fans or songs they’ve made. Nott said that seeing an audience singing along to their lyrics is what truly defines a band’s achievement.

“We went last year … and we didn’t have any expectations,” Brittney Schafer, an attendee, said. “We said ‘Okay, whatever. We’ll go,’ and it was amazing. So, we’ve been looking forward to going again for seriously a few months.” The festival glass allowed eventgoers to sample any beer from the breweries on site. Complimentary water and soda were also stationed throughout the festival to keep everyone hydrated and cool. Before the main performance by Reel Big Fish, guest speaker Greg Koch, CEO and co-founder of Stone Brewing Co., played guitar on stage alongside the group. Reel Big Fish satisfied the crowd’s musical palettes and performed during the last hour of the Brew Ha Ha. Keeping to the event’s theme, the band played their song “Beer.” Being beer connoisseurs themselves, Reel Big Fish is planning to release their own line of brews to be named “Reel Big Beer.” The event also hosted craft beer speakers including David Walker, co-founder of Firestone and Walker Brewing Co., and Greg Koch, CEO and co-founder of Stone Brewing Co. They spoke about their individual companies as well as the craft beer community and the craft beer business. “Bring on more brewers because more brewers, more competition, the better it is for everybody. That means no one is going to drink bad beer,” Walker said. For Reel Big Fish concert dates and more information, visit ReelBig-Fish.com or follow their twitter handle @ReelBigFish.

It took two months to research, collect, prepare and install Nothing Else Left—an exhibit that cost lifetimes to form.u Nothing Else Left, an installation piece at the Grand Central Art Center in Santa Ana by Adriana Salazar, a Colombian-born artist, contains a simple five-table array of inorganic instruments. The devices are left behind from a crowd of former and softer organic hosts—the deceased—and appear forensic in presentation. Stemmed knee implants, resembling plague doctor masks, lie neatly next to surgical screws and hinges of cremated coffins. Skin staples, twists of wire, valve stents and exploded pacemakers fill the tables in an organized row and column fashion. Animated circular collections of bone-derived organic ash and fine metallic dust are manipulated by an exposed magnet pivoting on top of a silver pole underneath each table. “She didn’t want to make it spooky, cover the table, how is it moving,” said John Spiak, Grand Central Art Center’s chief curator and director. “She allows you the opportunity to see the motor moving.” Spiak crouched to the f loor to explain the rotating mechanism. By keeping the motor open and unsheathed the viewer would lower to the ground and cradle the earth of which we are all a part of, dead or alive. The short yet rich acquaintance of Salazar and Spiak began after she joined the center’s Artist-In-Residency Program. The eclectic program provides artists of various talents, diverse backgrounds and distant lands the opportunity to reside in a local Orange County f lat and the space to create projects that inadvertently model a much needed philosophy of ethnocultural empathy. And although residing in

Orange County for a moment, Salazar and Spiak didn’t stay in one place for too long. In the beginning, like modern-day Dr. Frankensteins, Salazar set out with Spiak and Curator Dan Cameron in a search for a single body to bring back to life through art. Mortuary after mortuary the team was unsuccessful and unable to recover a lonesome cadaver. While the inaccessibility of an intact body provided a dead end, a silver lining was found in the ovens of their next stop, the crematorium. “After (the cremators) take the body out of the oven there’s a stainless steel table,” Spiak said. “They run a big magnet over the body. They take all the metal parts out. And the bones get grinded into ash.” The metal is then stockpiled in large buckets and labeled as unwanted waste. Bodies and ashes are priceless and beloved remains in current culture. However, the tools and instruments that extend our mobility and longevity does not. Stunning. The metal was as good as gold. When the time is short and the task large, only an artist can prevail. Salazar’s quick and clever mind produced an undying and prudent exhibit. It proves that even after a body loses its life and its bones are ground to dust, an impact can still be made by a pulseless figure. It may not be the deepest or longest impact. A couple of the instruments on display were rotting and f laking and tearing stains on top of the pine wood tables, evidence that even inorganic matter has an expiration date. Nevertheless, it’s an impression from beyond the grave. It’s a simple reminder—to the remorseless polluter, the double-dealing politician, the two-faced tycoon, the world— that one’s existence and actions can ripple through time and can have an, positively or negatively, even without a body. And like everything that once was, Nothing Else Left is coming to its end. The final day to experience the installation before it relocates from the Orange County art circuit is Sunday, Sept. 22.

Titans feel Lions’ roar in 2-0 loss to LMU LMU Lions stifle Titans offense and keep them to only one shot on target RODRIGO RUIZ

For The Daily Titan

First half goals by Loyola Marymount University attackers Adrein Perez and Trent Clifton gave the Lions a 2-0 win Friday night at Titan Stadium. The Titans were caught flatfooted early. In the 12th minute freshman winger Adrein Perez headed a sudden goal to make it 1-0. The Ontario, Calif. native scored his first career goal with his only shot of the game. One minute before halftime LMU senior forward Trent Clifton eased into a pocket of space near the top of the CSUF 18yard box and pounced on a loose ball. Clinton was left uncontested and his opportunistic strike made it 2-0. “We came out a little slow and they were able to capitalize on their chances,” senior goalkeep-

er Bryan Escalante said. The CSUF defense, led by center backs Fermin Villalba and Zach Bryan, held off LMU’s forwards but the Titan midfielders were closer to the forwards than their defenders. The lack of midfield presence in transition allowed LMU’s attackers to find open spaces on their counterattacks. “If we got pressure in the midfield then that lets us step up and we have them running towards their own goal,” Villalba said. “That’s what we want so we can have them make mistakes.” The Lions were tactically fluid, easily shifting different formations such as a 4-3-3 and a 4-2-3-1. But their philosophy was to sit deep, stay compact and press from their own half. LMU’s players quickly shifted to whatever the Titans were doing and shut down open spaces. The Titans were not allowed to operate comfortably and had to rely on the long ball throughout the match. Thus, the Lions sat back anticipating the Titans attack.

Junior midfielder Ian Ramos attempts to disposess the ball from Loyola Marymount defender Jack McCracken in Friday night’s loss at Titan Stadium.

Scoring against the Lions under these circumstances proved challenging. “When you go down a goal to a team that tries to keep everything in front of them, our hope was to get an early goal and then open them up,” head coach Bob Ammann said. “We felt we could be successful once we got behind them, but their early goal, then getting two, they built a defensive wall and they tried to catch us on the counter and it worked out for them.” CSUF had their opportunities and came close on two occasions in the 40th minute. First, LMU’s goalkeeper Paul

Blanchette juggled a high ball and the Titans would-be goal was disallowed by the referee. Seconds later sophomore forward Colin Okirie’s powerful right-footed shot banged off the far post. Those were the best scoring chances against a conservative and resilient LMU defense. The few opportunities the Titans had came from wide-play. The Titan wingers were able to accelerate past LMU’s fullbacks and whip-in crosses. That was the most effective method of attack Friday night, but it did not pay dividends. In the second half, it was more of the same as LMU sat back deep with a comfortable 2-0 lead. The Titans had the majority of possession but struggled to burst closer to the opposing goal and create a scoring chance.

The Titans constantly used the long ball and were on the losing battle against LMU’s tall center backs Ryan Felix and Mark Doseth. Defensive midfielder Leon Prikhodovskiy, who’s 5-foot9 frame appeared more like 6-feet-tall, gave ferocious bite in front of his center backs. “They had big guys up top and if we’re going to play it over the top it’s not going to work,” senior midfielder Ritchie Gonzalez said. “They stayed compact. I’ve got to give it to them, they did their job defensively.” Facing a team that dedicates all their players to defend can serve as a lesson for the Titans. “As we go forward I think, if this continues to, teams (are) packing it in, we’ve got to stay patient. If we stay patient and do what the coaches tell us to do we’ll be successful,” Villalba

said. “We had opportunities but we were unfortunate to not find the back of the net tonight.” The Lions were more triggerhappy on the night, they outshot the Titans 20-11. The majority of both teams shots were wide away from goal. LMU registered six shots on goal compared to only one for CSUF. With Friday’s loss against Loyola Marymount, the Titans are 13-4 all-time against the Lions. The Titans are currently on a four game road trip until Sept. 21 and won’t play again at Titan Stadium until Sept. 28 when they play Grand Canyon University.

Titans’ shutout streak snapped at Texas Tech Women’s soccer has their unbeaten and shutout streak ended on the road IAN O’BRIEN Daily Titan

The Cal State Fullerton women’s soccer team traveled to Lubbock, Texas to take on the Texas Tech Red Raiders on Friday night at the John Walker Soccer Complex. The Titans were defeated 1-0 by the Red Raiders in front of 936 fans. The Red Raiders put together a dominant defensive effort as their goalkeeper, Victoria Esson, only needed to log one save. Esson’s lone save occurred just 53 seconds after the game started. Junior defender Colleen Ortega was the only Titan player who forced Esson to make a save in the goal. Forwards Christina Burkenroad and Nikki McCants accounted for the rest of the Titans’ shots. Burkenroad’s shot occurred in the 11th minute as she attempted a header, and McCants attempted her shot in the 69th minute. Senior goalkeeper Lindsey Maricic recorded five saves in goal for the Titans and allowed one goal to the Red Raiders. The Red Raiders attempted 14 shots in the match. The Red Raiders had 10 different players attempt a miniVISIT US AT: DAILYTITAN.COM

mum of one shot. Although the Red Raiders’ offensive effort wasn’t dominant, it was still enough to propel them to victory. Senior defender Hayley Haagsma took four of the 14 shots for the Red Raiders, and one of her shots found the back of the net. Her goal was scored in the 62nd minute, her third of the season. Sophomore midfielder Caity Heap came through with the assist on Haagsma’s goal. Heap’s shot on goal was initially blocked, and then bounced back to Haagsma, setting her up with the shot. The Titans severely lacked in corner kicks along with shots on goal, as they were heavily outnumbered 7-2 by the Red Raiders in corner kicks throughout the game. The Titans’ first corner kick was attempted by senior midfielder Janali West in the 11th minute of the game. The second one was attempted in the 48th minute by senior midfielder Erica Mazeau. The Titans played aggressively on Friday night. This got them into trouble at times as they were whistled for 15 fouls. They also received two yellow cards, which were both given later on in the match. The yellow cards were given in the 68th and 81st minutes to Jazzmin Mancilla and Ali White, making the Titans’ ef-

fort to get back in the game that much more difficult. The Red Raiders had two yellow cards given their way too. One of them was on the team and the other was on Heap. Their aggressiveness was kept under control though as they only committed four fouls. Texas Tech redeemed themselves with this victory, moving on from an upset at the hands of Long Beach State, which occurred in the final seconds last weekend. The Red Raiders’ Big West road trip will continue on Sunday at Cal State Northridge as they look to improve their 4-1 record. The Titans’ loss ended their streak of three unbeaten matches, and their record now stands at 2-2-1. The Titans will return to Fullerton looking to recover from their close loss. They will be hosting a threegame homestand beginning on Friday, Sept. 13 against Loyola Marymount (3-2) with kickoff scheduled for 7 p.m. The Titans’ homestand will continue on Sunday, Sept. 15 with kickoff scheduled for 1 p.m. against Utah State (3-0-1). The team will be signing autographs the night they play LMU.

Titans spike opponents in Fullerton Classic Alyse Hensley honored as the tournament’s MVP as Titans go undefeated JOSEPH ANDERSON Daily Titan

The Cal State Fullerton women’s volleyball team continued their hot streak by defeating the Wake Forest University Demon Deacons in a five-set thriller on Saturday night at Titan Gym. The match was the last of the Fullerton Classic tournament presented by the Holiday Inn of La Mirada, which Fullerton walked out of with a perfect record of 4-0, improving their record to 5-2 on the season. CSUF and Wake Forest played a back-and-forth affair that featured 29 tie scores and 12 lead changes throughout the match. The Demon Deacons controlled the entire first game and won handily 25-12, with middle blocker Matalee Reed leading the way with four kills. However, CSUF made some adjustments and bounced back by eventually pulling away and winning an extremely competitive second game 28-26 behind an aggressive .318 team hitting percentage. The third game also belonged to the Titans, who trailed only once en route to winning by a score of 25-17 behind freshman Mallory Waggoner’s five kills. It seemed like CSUF had taken control of the match until the Demon Deacons bounced back with a strong 25-16 win in the fourth game, led by the six kills of middle blocker Kristin Grissom. However, once the Titans gained a 5-4 lead in the fifth set

they never looked back, winning it by a score of 15-10 to get the win and hand Wake Forest its first loss of the season. The Titans hit just .206 while Wake Forest had a clip of .236 in the match. The Demon Deacons also held the advantage in blocks at 15-8, but CSUF held the advantage in both digs (81-73) and aces (5-4). Senior right outside hitter Alyse Hensley and middle blocker Leah Best led the way for the Titans on offense with 18 and 13 kills, respectively. On the defensive end, senior Bre Moreland recorded 23 digs and Hensley had 16. Hensley earned the tournament’s Most Valuable Player award after recording a doubledouble in the final match to conclude a stellar overall performance this weekend. Freshman libero McKenna Painton was also named to the all-tournament team after finishing the final match with 13 digs. Junior setter Julie Consani recorded a career-best 58 assists in the match against Wake Forest while sophomore middle blocker Holland Crenshaw also had a career-high 10 kills for the Titans. CSUF improved their record to 5-2 on the season with an undefeated record in the tournament, and are currently on a five-match win streak after opening the season with two consecutive losses. Fullerton finished as the only unbeaten team in the Fullerton Classic. The Titans beat Kent State and College of William and Mary to open the tournament on Friday, and then beat Gard-

ner-Webb in their first match on Saturday. CSUF beat Kent State in three consecutive games (2520,25-10,25-19) to open tournament play, then followed that up by sweeping William and Mary in three straight games (2516,25-15,25-16). Fullerton followed their impressive performances on Friday by defeating Gardner-Webb in their first game on Saturday

in three games (25-15,25-19,2517). The Titans had won 12 consecutive sets before dropping the first against Wake Forest. This was the longest winning streak for the Titans since they won seven straight matches in Sept. 2010. Looking to build off of their recent success, CSUF understands that the team can’t become complacent, and must

continue to improve each day. More specifically, the team recognizes that going forward they must become more consistent away from the friendly confines of Titan Gym. “We must learn to win on the road,” outside hitter Bre Moreland said. “We are confident in our abilities.” The Titans will look to continue their success on the road in Lubbock, Texas on Sept. 13
