The event raised more than $5,000 that will be donated to Habitat for Humanity and Palomar's Urban Forestry program, which takes trees from community parks and uses the wood to build furniture.

Palomar College police arrested an Oceanside man Oct. 5 who is suspected of assaulting a student in front of the Dome shortly after noon on Sept. 20. Police are still searching for a second suspect.

Nathan Togia, 20, was arrested Oct. 5 at his Oceanside home. He was charged with misdemeanor assault and battery and later cited and released. Police said they suspect Togia to be the primary assailant. He will face charges in a Vista court later this year.

Earth science lecture to focus on tsunamis and hurricanes

By Chrystal! Kanyuck THE TElESCOPE

Palomar will celebrate National Earth Science Week Oct. 10-15. The Earth Sciences Department will set up an information table, host guest speakers and hold a movie marathon to explore various topics related to earth science.

Pat Abbot, a geology professor from San Diego State, will kick off the weeklong event with a lecture titled "Tsunami and Hurricanes: Lessons from Sumatra and Katrina," which will focus on last year's tsunami in Indonesia and the recent Gulf Coast hurricane. The lecture will be held Oct. 10, at 2:30 p.m., in Room ES-19.

Abbott is a very dynamic speaker, said earth sciences professor Al Trujillo.

Students may recognize Abbott from his role as "The Professor" on the reality show "The Real Gilligan's Island."

The Earth Sciences Department information table will be manned by faculty members and students, Oct. 10-14 from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. in front of the Student Center.

"We'll have a lot of fun things to look at," said Earth Sciences Department Chairperson Patty Deen. She said there will be a cross-section of a telescope, unique sand samples and plans of the new science building under construction.

Students will be able to see what all

the construction is about, Deen said. The table will also have a sample of the granite which caused the construction crews to have to blast the area.

Student Charles Dare will be at the table presenting photos from a fieldstudy class on his laptop.

The table will provide an opportunity for students to ask questions, Deen said.

Faculty members who teach oceanography, aeronautics, geology, astronomy and geography will give demonstrations related to their fields.

Information on the department's newest certificate program, Geographic Information Systems, will also be available throughout the week.

GIS is a growing field with highdemand workers, Deen said.

The certificate program prepares students for jobs using digital maps.

On Oct. 12, there will be a special GIS presentation for those interested in the field, including career opportunities.

On Oct. 15, a movie marathon will be held in Room ES-19.

"We've chosen some of our favorite earth science-videos," Deen said.

The films will focus on topics such as volcanos, tsunamis, earthquakes and the Bermuda Triangle.

Information and an updated schedule of events can be obtained by visiting the department's Web site at www.palomar.edu/earthscience/.

"I feel like I have a better grasp on how

By John Asbury TKE TELESCOPE

After spending the previous weekend at a retreat in San Diego, members of the Associated Student Government met Oct. 5, to review their policies for the current year.

ASG members spent the weekend planning long-term and short-term goals for the organization at a hotel in Rancho Bernardo.

Members were instructed in parliamentary procedure and about their role as student representatives on campus.

ASG President Neill Kovrig, who served as vice president the previous year, said the retreat was a way for new members to become acquainted with each other and learn about the college's shared governance structure.

"I think it really opened the eyes of those new members and helped them understand how Palomar works," Kovrig said ASG Senator Curtis Van Engle has been a member since August and said the retreat helped to clarifY procedure and address where other members stand on certain issues.

everything works on campus and it has given me a broader perspective," Van Engle said.

Bruce Bishop, the ASG's Adviser, said the retreat is essential for informing ASG members about how to get involved on campus. He said the state legislature requires the college to give students a voice in the decision-making process. ''They need to know not only that they have a voice, but en that we need to hear it," Bishop said. "Not just symbolically, but actually representing the students."

During its Oct. 5 meeting, the ASG approved several policies outlining procedures regarding planning, finance and communication.

One policy this year's ASG established was to begin planning events no later than 60 days before they will be held.

ASG committees plan events such as Comet Week, Halloween Escape and SpringFest. Under the new policy, each committee must have a contingency plan in the event of poor weather, including designating alternative locations.

The ASG also approved a policy to approve its budget no later than the first week in May ofthe prior year. Kovrig said

the board was still in the process of developing a budget for this year, following changes to its funding sources. Palomar 's governing board voted to reallocate $35,000 that the ASG traditionally controlled for use by instructional programs.

Of the policies that came under discussion, the ASG weighed reciting the Pledge of Allegiance before its meetings. Kovrig supported the idea, but said Bishop had discouraged it, citing the ASG was similar to other campus committees. The board cannot take action on the subject until it appears on a future agenda.

"You will find the governing board does it, personally I think we should do it as well," Kovrig said. ''No one would ever be forced to do it, but it's a fact of political life."

Members formalized policies concerning public comments and media relations.

They also adopted a policy where some ASG members would qualifY for scholarships from the Office of Student Affairs.

Following the previous week's proposal to have a public relations officer, the ASG formed a committee to explore creating a newsletter to report its business. ''We want to be represented in a different light than we are being represented now," said Vice President Malia Bassett.

"Having a newsletter of our own is an opportunity to tell what we do in our own way without outside bias," Kovrig said.

Concerns expressed about court nominee II

By David Jackson KR! HEWS SERVICE

WASHINGTON (KRT) - The Bush administration hit conservative turbulence last week over the Supreme Court nomination of Harriet Miers, including tough questions from Senate Republicans who will decide her fate.

Sen. Trent Lott, R-Miss., told MSNBC that "a lot more people" are better qualified for the job, and "I'm not satisfied with what I know" about the White House counsel and former Dallas attorney.

A day after President Bush vouched for Miers' conservatism, Lott said: "He's not the nominee, and it's not enough to just say 'Trust me.' " Republican Sens. Sam Brownback and John Thune also questioned the nomination of Miers, though other GOP members said anxious conservatives would feel better about the nominee after they get to know her.

"She's very bright," said Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison, R-Texas. "I think she's going to be confirmed, and I think she's going to be a great justice."

Thune, of South Dakota, said that "there were concerns" at last week's weekly GOP policy lunch and that some members wanted a nominee in the mold of conservative Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas.

"For conservatives out there, she's going to have to be very forthcoming ... to give them the comfort level that they need," Thune said.

Miers' nomination has exacerbated tensions between the Bush team and part of its conservative base, on issues such as Iraq, immigration and increased federal spending.

Still, few people were prepared to

bet against Miers' confirmation, noting that the complaints are varied and might not be worth an embarrassing setback to a Republican president.

"So far, there's nothing to hang a rejection on," said Jennifer Duffy, who analyzes Senate races for The Cook Political Report.

Since Bush announced Miers' nomination early Monday, most of the criticism has come from the right.

Some conservatives questioned her lack of judicial experience, others her basic qualifications.

One big blast came last week from conservative syndicated columnist George Will, who challenged Miers' qualifications.

"It is not important that she be confirmed because there is no evidence that she is among the leading lights of American jurisprudence, or that she possesses talents commensurate with the Supreme Court's tasks," he wrote.

One question on the right is whether Miers might become another David Souter. Nominated by the first President Bush, Justice Souter turned out to be more liberal than advertised after he joined the court and became a reliable supporter of abortion rights.

Brownback, a prominent social conservative and possible presidential candidate, said he would oppose Miers if she declares the 1973 abortion rights ruling in Roe vs. Wade to be settled law, not subject to reversal.

"There's a good chance that I would, then, in that case," Brownback said on ABC's "Good Morning America."

Bush called a news conference 'fuesday to reassure supporters that Miers shares his judicial philosophy, including strict construction of the Constitution and an opposition to legislating from the bench.

CHUCK KENNEDY I KRT NEWS SERVICE

President Bush nominated his fonner personal attorney and current White House counsel Haniet Miers to the US Supreme Court last week to replace retiring Justice Sandra Day O'Connor.

Republican senators picked up that theme last week. Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, said, "She has what I would call a conservative judicial philosophy, which is absolutely critical."

White House officials noted that a host of other conservative organizations endorsed Miers, including nods last week from the Christian Coalition and the National Right to Life Committee.

Several Senate conservatives have spoken kindly of Miers, including Orrin Hatch of Utah and Jeff Sessions of Alabama.

Those two, like Brownback, are members of the Senate Judiciary

Committee that will conduct confirmation hearings on Miers.

A Republican defection or two would not necessarily doom Miers, political analysts pointed out.

It might make it harder for Democrats to cast her as an extremist and therefore justifY a filibuster.

Senate Democrats and their allies are also taking a hard look at Miers.

They emphasized that she would replace Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, often the swing vote on hard cases.

Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., praised Miers after her nomination but later said that does not guarantee his vote for confirmation.

I read the column by Marwan Razouk and I have to say that I disagree with him. The problem is that each of the teams in the division has had hot streaks and cold streaks -look at the Rockies for example.

They have been the hottest team in the division lately, but are in last place. It's baseball, a game, and there are a lot of variables to consider.

Players get hurt, bad luck happens, and I can't remember when I have seen so many teams lose one-run games.

My question to Razouk is, who would he send to represent our division? Someone has to go- forget about the nw;nber of games won or lost. When the playoffs start, all the teams have the same record - no wins and no losses - and it's like the beginning of the regular season.

Does he want to reorganize baseball and write new rules to make him feel good about himself? There is no perfect team and no perfect season.

I have seen teams in the past with the best record in baseball fail to reach the World Series.

If you don't want to support your local team, that's OK It's your right, but I don't believe he has the right to tell any ball player who has played hard and may win their division that they aren't good enough to play in the playoffs.

When he becomes an owner of a team or part of the Major Leagues, then he will have a vote in changing the rules, but for now he is like the rest of us: Only wishing that the Padres or any other team in the National League West had a better record. I will take the playoffs no matter what the win-loss record is.

DeBarros letter skirts civility Professor Phillip DeBarros responded to a letter written by Professor Gary Zacharias , who was responding to an editorial written by Donnie Boyle on the subject of teaching Intelligent Design in the classroom.

Though I don't feel qualified to comment directly on DeBarros' criticism of the authorities Zacharias cites in his letter, I do take issue with DeBarros' glib dismissal of Boyle's inflammatory rhetoric, which Zacharias correctly noted in his letter.

One thing I hope all students learn from me in terms of critical thinking skills is the importance of civil discourse. Inflammatory rhetoric of the sort used by Boyle in his original commentary serves little purpose, in my view, other than to alienate those you disagree with and to earn kudos from those who share your views.

I thought Zacharias' letter set a good example of civil discourse.

Though he obviously disagreed with Boyle, he never "rose to the bait" by attacking Boyle personally. Instead, he offered a thoughtful counter-argument and invited readers both to consider and to respect a differing point of view.

DeBarros' letter, on the other hand, skirted the edge of civility. By selecting loaded words like ''laughable" and ''blatantly untrue," and relying on ad hominem argument ("It is time that those that support creationist beliefs stop putting forth falsehoods , misleading statements, and selective quotations out of context") it almost appears (certainly I'm mistaken?) as if DeBarros is calling Zacharias a liar.

Writers of all ages, abilities, education and affiliation undermine their own credibility when they resort to inflammatory rhetoric. The academic community is an ideal environment for all of us - students and faculty alike - to exercise restraint, even when addressing controversial and/or volatile issues.

Time to yell - no more Bush!

For the second time during the Bush administration, our country faced tragedy of biblical proportions, each made worse by the incompetence and political maneuverings of George W. Bush and his cabal of corruption.

This country is still reeling from Hurricane Katrina, trying to pick up the pieces and recover, and even Bush has now taken personal responsibility for his administration's lack of action.

It has come to light that even before all the bodies have been buried and loved ones grieved, Bush is already handing out billion dollar contracts to Halliburton subsidiaries while at the same time repealing wage protection for those that live in the disaster zone, which are the same people that voted for him in the last election.

These people desperately need every dollar they can get right now.

Before 9/11, Bush had a report in his hand stating al-Qaida was determined to strike in the United States. During Katrina, local governments did ask for help well before the storm made land fall (and you can check any news service for the hearing reports on that one) illustrates that this administration is the most inept, corrupted and arrogant one we have seen in a generation.

We can no longer sit by and let an administration as incompetent and dishonest as this one continue to operate without letting our voices be heard. It's no longer a matter of personal political ideology or something we should not discuss in mixed company - people are dying! Speak out! Yell out! Tell these people that support Bush they are wrong. Do not let them ruin this great country.

What is scarier than any storm or terrorist is someone that can ignore the suffering ofhundreds of thousands of people and support this administration. They seem willing to lie, distort and even completely ignore the truth just so they can continue to whistle in the dark and pretend that nothing is wrong.

Michael Mufson's production of "Tartuffe" at Howard Brubeck Theatre proved both thought provoking and visually ric? !

'Tartuffe' when 1t :;: opened _on ;f:i \OtrrcFr:ouRsrAHSi Sept.

30 The play i"' STARRING CASEY PALMER AND BRIAN was writWI SMA DIRECTED BY ten by MICHAEL MUFSON Moliere, a classic French playwright of the 1600s. It is a simple story of a man's ability to get taken advantage of due to his own dimwittedness.

Despite the simple storyline, the play was extremely entertaining and the set was beautiful. The entire dialogue, translated by Richard Wilbur in 1954, rhymed. Although at times it was distracting, it still clearly told the story.

The cast did a wonderful job delivering two hours worth of poetic dialogue. It was clear that they were well rehearsed and everyone stayed in character to create a flawless performance. At some points, I felt like I was watching a scene from a "Leave It To Beaver" episode.

Mufson embraced the 1950s twist that was incorporated into the play during Wilbur's translation. The set was true to the American '50s style, with everything from the black and white introduction video and checkerboard floor, to the elaborate costume and set design.

During the first act, we learn that Organ, the dimwitted father (played by Justin West) has decided to take in a houseguest - despite the entire family's objections. The houseguest is a freeloading, religious fanatic named Tartuffe, played by Casey Palmer.

The entire family has its doubts about Tartuffe's intentions. The only family member that supports Organ and

Justin West (right) tries to convince his daughter, Jessie Richardson (center) to marry a crooked preacher while Mollie Sims (left) consoles her.

Tartuffe is Organ's mother, Madame Pemelle, played by Shanez Gountanis and her loyal and hilarious servant Flipote played by Maurice Sims.

Organ makes matters worse for the family by promising Tartuffe his ever obedient daughter Mariane's hand in marriage, even though Mariane, played by Jessie Richardson, was already engaged to her true love Valere (Brian Wisma).

After this arrangement is made, Dimis the hotheaded son, played by Beau Allen hides in a closet and spies Tartuffe attempting to seduce Organ's wife Elmire (Stacy Michelle Walker).

Dimis and Elmire begin to conspire with Marianne. They decide they need to come up with a plan to change Organ's mind about the wedding.

Meanwhile the devious

housemaid Dorine, played by Mollie Samocha, acts as everyone's counselor, which enables her to stay abreast of all the juicy gossip going around the household.

The entire cast did a wonderful job using every square inch of the set to their comedic advantage.

All the furniture, cabinets and doors were constantly used as hiding spaces or surprise entrances for eavesdropping characters.

You never knew who was going to pop out of where, or when.

The play was very easy to follow. The fast-paced comedy flowed quite well, it was extremely funny and the five acts flew right by.

The cast looked comfortable working together and gave strong confident performances, making this production of Tartuffe truly captivating.

Green Day concert mixes new songs and old favorites

More than 10,000 hardcore fans filled Coors Amphitheatre in Chula Vista to gain the full experience.

Although the band of Northern California punksters has defined this generation, its music has drawn appeal from all ages. From the 12year-old girl to the 45-year-old investor, all Green Day fans share the same desire to rock.

Jimmy Eat World opened with a 30minute set. Afterward, the band showed respect to the headliner, introducing Green Day as "the biggest

thing in music today."

In an entrance taken from the King of Rock, the princes of punk took to the stage with the theme from "2001, A Space Odyssey." They opened with the title track of the latest album, "American Idiot."

Lead singer Billie Joe Armstrong and crew continued the album's angst-ridden message with the nineminute saga, "Jesus of Suburbia," dedicating it to anyone coming from a small town.

"This isn't an f-ing tea party, this is rock and roll," Armstrong said as throngs of fans rushed the stage.

Fans were an important part of the show, as Armstrong revved up the crowd with a series of "Hey!" while pumping his fists in the air. At one point, the band brought three fans on stage to showcase their amateur musical talents. One fan maintained the beat on drums, guided by drummer, Tre Cool, while another fan took the bass from bassist Mike Dirnt.

Green Day also showed off its prevalent anti-establishment political beliefs, explicitly dedicating the defiant song "Holiday'' to George W. Bush.

While remaining true to its own Armstrong followed with a message of hope to the fans. He encouraged the roots, the band also remembered the audience to vote, reminding them that artists who came before them. In a they control the fate of those in power break from the onslaught of modem rock, Green Day halted the show midand that their voices could be heard.

Video tame sequel is beHer than oritinal

By Ben Greenstein

THE TELESCOPE

One month ago, if you had asked me to pick the best video game of the past five years, I would have picked 2004's "Katamari Damacy."

Of course, on Sept. !

'We Love 20, when the sequel ~ Katamari' "We Love Katamari" Ill • was released, I would ::E !OLr OF FOJR STARSi AVAILABLE ON PLAY have immediately STATION 2, ABOUT S30 changed my answer.

DEVELOPED BY NAMCO Surprisingly, it surRATED E passes even the flaw.._....-;;.;.;;;..;........o~ less original game.

Most garners would say that a bestseller or groundbreaker like "Halo" or "Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas" would be a better choice. Don't get me wrong - in spite of all of the controversy, both of those games are fantastic.

But the original "Katamari Damacy" was able to do something that few other games can. By keeping its concept simple and its mood lighthearted, and by maintaining its artistic style, it was able to look great and be addictive in the same oldschool way as "Pac Man" or "Super Mario Brothers."

It's hard to explain the basic premise of the game without making it sound ridiculous. Essentially, you are a dung beetle rolling junk into a ball. But instead of only rolling up feces, you can roll up practically anything.

At the start of the game, the largest item you can catch is a paper clip. As your ball gets bigger, you can pick up pencils, then books. Then cats. Then people. Then cars. Then buildings. Eventually your ball of junk (or "katamari") becomes a Godzilla-like threat, menacing entire cities.

As if the concept wasn't hilarious enough on its own, the gamemakers delivered it with a truly bizarre sense of humor (think Monty Python in Japan and on twice as much drugs), and applied a uniquely retro pop-art look (think Andy

~~

BRIAN MOHLER I THE TELESCOPE

Warhol meets "Yellow Submarine," crossed with about a dozen other things).

In terms of gameplay and graphics, the sequel is almost identical to the original.

Any changes to the programming are minimal. This, however, is not a bad thing.

The game wasn't broken, so why fix it?

One notable improvement, however, is increased diversity. Every level in the original was simply a race to pick up as much as possible, while the new game throws in countless variations on the basic idea.

One stage finds you trying to roll up snowballs to create a giant snowman.

Another is a race in which you must defeat the other cars by rolling them up into your ball.

My favorite involves fattening up a sumo wrestler until he is bulky enough to knock over a gigantic opponent.

Another notable improvement is in the two-player mode. In "Damacy," battles could only be held in a dull arena. Now you can try to roll up your friends on the regular city map as well.

The music in the original was a treat, although I may just feel that way because I happen to be addicted to quirky, electronic, Japanese pop. "We Love Katamari's" music is not quite as immediately enjoyable, but it does feature more well-known (well, to me at least) artists like Kahimi Karie and Maki Nomiya.

The game isn't for everybody. The weirdness of the humor will probably

alienate those who prefer their games grounded in reality. But those with an appreciation for clever ideas and innovation will be overjoyed.

One last rave: The "Katamari" games are as of this writing the only games I have played which feel like a consistent "work of art." The combination of the amazing gameplay with the graphics, music, and humor makes it into something truly new and exciting.

Hopefully other game programmers will realize this, and stop making games that try to emulate movies, as they seem to do far too often these days.

If I want to watch something, I will put a DVD on. If I want to play something, I reach for ''We Love Katamari."

Supergrass releases a rock-inspired record

By Ben Greenstein

THE TELESCOPE

Supergrass has always been considered a retro group, and rightly so. With a sound combining the best bits of !

'Road to '70s guitar ~ Rouen' pop, early • punk, and I t~ot\:tiJs; overblown BAND SUPERGRASS RELEASED SEPT. 27 art rock, CAPITOL RECORDS they were a bit out of step with most of the other bands ofthe mid-'90s.

They were, of course, big in Britain, but too out-of-step with trends to become a hit in America. The fact that the new century has seen the emergence of many similarly classic rock influenced bands (from the Strokes to the Hives), signals that perhaps U.S. success is close at hand for Supergrass.

The trio's new record, "Road to Rauen," out Sept. 27, is one of their most artistic, a retreat from the ultra-catchy bubblegum of their last record, "Life On Other Planets."

It's obvious from the opening track, "Tales Of Endurance," that the main influence this time around is Pink Floyd.

With its violently strummed acoustic guitar, spacey synths, orchestral section, and unforgettable riff, the track would

sound right at home on that group's dark, trippy "Animals" album.

While the band repeats this feel on one other track, the sixminute epic "Roxy," the rest of the album is a bit more restrained, although it still maintains a nighttime vibe, perfect for late drives home.

There are some lovely pop songs, such as "St. Petersburg" and "Low C," a hook-filled jangly rocker in "Kick In The Teeth;" a hilarious quasi-latin instrumental called "Coffee In The Pot." The final track is a gorgeous ballad called "Fin." But the best song is the title track, an irresistible heavy rocker which I can't help but bang my head along to. There are certain bands who really could learn from this song - in order to make a great rock tune, you need more than just a riff. You need a groove, which is something that Supergrass have got down to a T. With the release of "Road," Supergrass has topped itself.

The album mixes perfect melodies with spacier and heavier influences. It would be hard to deny it the title of the band's best record.

There are plenty of other popular bands today who are attempting this kind of sound, but not one which does it as impressively as Supergrass.

ILLUSTRATION BY MICHAEL HOGUE I KRT NEWS SERVICE

Sayings gain significance during experiences abroad It is all part of the adventure, and life is all about choices.

These are two expressions I never really appreciated before living abroad. Now they are getting me through some tough days and difficult decisions.

A professor here taught me the first phrase. He described to the class how he and his wife had arrived at their new apartment here in London during a storm feeling as though they had everything but the kitchen sink in tow. Their landlady surprised them by exclaiming POTA! She explained that this was short for "part of the adventure."

The purpose of the phrase is to make travelers laugh at each other and their misfortune by shortening the phrase into a crazy shout that should be said with a smile.

I find myself exclaiming POTA! on a daily basis due to my propensity for losing my way.

The camp director I have worked for during the past three summers ground the second saying into all her employees' heads until we all repeated it to her on cue. Life is all about choices. Today I got caught in the rain twice. The first time, I chose to

hide with my fresh laundry in a semi-dry bush.

Several hours later, this time with groceries, I chose to walk through the downpour. Both were choices made for different reasons, and I enjoyed my time spent during both of them, because I recognized them as deliberate choices when I made them. It sounds corny, but it is amazing what walking in the rain can do for the psyche.

Although I mostly use these two pearls of wisdom separately and in rather trivial ways, I found them taking on more significance recently.

I had to leave my first homestay family because my three housemates and I felt unwelcome and refused to allow the parents to yell at us. We chose to push the matter and get ourselves moved.

At the time, we did not know if we were making the right choice, especially because it was not the easy choice.

My uncertainty in my decision and its looming consequences with the home-stay family were making me feel ill. That was when a little voice whispered in my head, "Life is all about choices."

It did not say life is all about good choices or right choices or easy choices, just choices. I had an

epiphany. My camp director had not been telling us to make good choices all those years, simply to make them and realize that we were making them.

A huge weight lifted from me.

The night the family found out we were moving, my housemates and I faced some of the most intense and accusatory bellowing I have ever experienced. That was when that second gem came to my mind.

POTA! Even as I hurriedly packed to be hastily removed to a nearby hotel and listened to arguments of how hurt and confused the family felt, I had trouble not laughing. It was always right there on the tip of my tongue. POTA! I would have passed the concept on if I had thought the family could have comprehended it.

I am in a new, more pleasant home-stay now. I feel confident I made the right decision to move, but I also know that right is not what matters. I made a choice. That is what matters. I made a choice and I am living with it. Besides, it was all just part of the adventure, and I came on this trip in search of a few good adventures. POTA!

Once the footings are ready, Astl said pouring concrete is the next step.

Crews will be filling in the walkway that was torn up to make way for utility lines in front of the ETV building in addition to pouring the slab for the building.

Miller said he is pushing to reopen Parking Lot 6, which passes in between the library and the P Building where the utility lines were being installed.

Lot 6 contains two handicapped staff parking spaces and a loading zone.

After concrete, Miller said steel is the next major component to the project.

The steel beams for the building's frame are being produced and inspected at an off-campus location, Miller said.

"Since the steel is already fabricated, the frame will basically be put together like an Erector set," he said.

Miller and Astl said the steel will be delivered in December. During deliveries, Miller said it's possible the left lane on Comet Circle will be closed daily.

The Facilities Department ran a test of C.E. Wylie Project Superintendent Bruce Swanson's traffic plan for lane closure dates on Sept. 13 and 14.

Miller said the plan is designed to reroute students into the right lane bordering Lot 5, although he and Swanson said students should find alternate routes onto campus during designated closure days.

Lane closures will be scheduled once crews are ready for concrete, he said.

Construction vehicles are also going to be traveling down the road bordering Lot 9, carrying surplus soil from the site to the future location of the practice fields.

Miller said The Facilities Department is also reroofing several buildings on campus, including the Howard Brubeck Theatre, with money from the San Marcos Redevelopment Agency, a faction of the San Marcos City Council, dedicated to public improvements.

The Facilities Department also ordered the completion of a sidewalk extending from the new traffic light at Comet Circle and Borden Road down to the existing sidewalk bordering Lot 9.

and torso by two men, stemming from an argument in Parking Lot 1 one week earlier. Wallem told police that a 6-foot-1inch Samoan man, weighing about 280 pounds approached him and began throwing punches. He said the second suspect attacked him from behind.

Wallem told police that he curled up in the fetal position while he was being attacked.

An eyewitness told officers that Wallem attempted to defend himself by holding up his arms in order to block the punches, but was not successful. The second suspect then kicked him while he was on the ground.

The second suspect police said may be involved was described as a short Asian man, with a shaved head and was wearing a "wifebeater" tanktop.

Several members of the women's basketball team witnessed the fight and were able to provide police with details of the incident. Police learned the suspects· drove away in a champagne-colored Cadillac and were seen near the Transit Center. One witness also provided the license plate number, which police used to identify the owner of the vehicle.

Wallem suffered a bloody nose, two black eyes, a scrape to his right temple and a possible head injury. Campus nurses responded to the scene and provided first aid. Wallem was later taken to an area hospital by a friend to receive treatment.

Wallem told police he knew the suspect from his friend's volleyball class, taught

by Terry McFarland. McFarland told police she did not witness the fight, but based on the description, said it might have been a student injured during a football game the previous weekend.

After interviewing several football coaches, police were able to determine the suspect may have played for Palomar's football team in 2003, the police report stated. However, after

showing Wallem a 2003 team photo, he was unable to positively identify the suspect, Cruz said. According to the Mission Football Conference's Web site, Togia was listed as a guard on Palomar's 2003 football roster.

Wallem told police the argument began Sept. 15 when he was walking across campus with friends. After exchanging several profanities, the suspect threatened him in the parking lot after exiting his vehicle with two other people. According to Wallem's statement, the suspect told Wallem to follow him. When Wallem refused, the suspect began to circle the parking lot as he walked away.

Five days later, on Sept. 20, Wallem said the suspect confronted him in the Dome lobby and initiated the attack.

The case will now be handed over to the San Diego County District Attorney's office. The assailants may be charged with misdemeanor assault and battery, which carries a penalty of one year or less in prison. Cruz said the case was regarded as a misdemeanor based on the nature of the injuries suffered.

Student Affairs Director Bruce Bishop handles discipline cases on campus that are not criminal acts and said based on crime statistics, Palomar is an extremely safe campus.

College president Robert Deegan said he believes the police are conducting a fair and thorough investigation.

"Palomar College is one of the safest community colleges in the country," Deegan said. "We need to have an adequate number of police officers to deter anyone who might have motives other than achieving educational goals."

Police said Togia is cooperating with the investigation, but has not confessed to the crime. Anyone with information about the incident is asked to contact the Palomar College Police Department at (760) 744-1150, ext. 2289.

Bonds' home run pursuit a mockery A little advice to San Francisco slugger Barry Bonds, quit now.

Leave the national past time the way it is. Don't undermine the character and dignity of the league's most hollowed record. Save your ego for something else.

Bonds did not pass Babe Ruth for second place on the all-time career homerun list this season, but will likely surpass the 714 mark within the first three weeks of next season.

He will be hunting down baseball's most cherished record by the latter part of that season.

With the record now within reach, Bonds is causing more harm than heroics. Even the all-time home run king Hank Aaron has lost all support and has vowed not to attend a possible record breaking game.

The alleged steroid user will be taking a bat to the league's image that has already seen many flaws.

A league that used to be so clean, so full of truth during the glory days of the 1950s, '60s and '70s is now drowned in deception. This disaster will be compared to the Pete Rose scandal, the 1919 Black Sox's debacle and the 1994 strike.

This record will be meaningless to the history of baseball. Remember the summer of 1998, the summer that rejuvenated a sport that had lost so many fans due to the strike.

This record will lose all importance if it is revealed Bonds improved his game with the help of enhancement drugs.

During that summer fans saw two prolific superstars, Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa, chasing down Roger Maris' 37 year mark of 61 home runs. The two battered the record, and now are presumed steroid users.

In 2001 Bonds added to that embarrassment by overtaking McGwire's mark. These players need to realize that they're taking down the historic marks and the historic players.

Maris suffered through that 1961 season, competing with teammate and fan favorite Mickey Mantle for the record. He received many death threats that year, along with fans at the stadium harassing him as he stood in the outfield.

What could possibly be going through Aaron's mind right now?

Aaron was the definition of perseverance in the early '70s, who fought racism and civil rights while trying to surpass the greatest white player ever. Now he gets to witness his pride and joy of a record being brought down by a drug.

On top of that, MLB imagined a completely different player to break this record. Unfortunately if you go down the list of active homerun leaders, only one player can really fit that mold. Scroll down past Sammy Sosa and Rafael Palmeiro, then you finally get to a non-steroid user.

I can see him doing it now. Bonds stepping up to the plate in the mid to late part of the 2006 season stuck at the 755 mark. Him and his broad shoulders that span the length of the Golden Gate Bridge, lunge at a pitch that is smacked into the San Francisco Bay. Instead of cheers, he'll hear jeers. Critics won't know who to congratulate Bonds, "The Cream" or "The Clear."

The Palomar College men's water polo team fell behind early and was unable to come GRIFFINS II back, COMETS 6 losing to rival Grossmont College 11-6 Sept. 27.

The loss moved the Comets record to 5-2, and 3-1 in the Pacific Coast Conference. It also dropped them in to a first place tie with Grossmont and San Diego Mesa.

Four goals in the first quarter by Grossmont put Palomar down early but the Comets fought back in the second quarter as Nate the Lee jump-started offense 15 seconds into the quarter on a goal assisted by Mitchell Dwelley.

Dwelley led the Comets with three assists.

"They didn't mark up on the lett outside, they just left an open shot, so I took it," Lee said.

Twenty seconds later, Lee was at it again with his second of three goals on the day.

"Their goalie was out a little further than he should be," Lee said. "So I just took advantage of another outside shot."

Besides turning the ball over 12 times, another nemisis for the Comets were mislocated shots. The Comets hit the crossbar of the goal eight times, missing by inches.

"That's just the way it goes, sometimes you are going to make them, sometimes you're just a little bit off and that can get frustrating," Lee said.

IN BRIEF

FOOTBALL Palomar lost its second consecutive game of the season 31-20 at El Camino College Oct. 1. After facing a 31-7 deficit, the Comets (3-2) fought back and even had fourth quarter chances to pull even closer against the Warriors, who entered the game ranked #4, according to the J.C. GridWire national poll.

Jermaine McQueen hauled in touchdown catches of 54 and 59 yards from quarterback Josh Somerville.

WRESTLING The wrestlers competed for the first time since their Sept. 10 season opener, placing fourth in the 12team Golden West tournament Oct. 1. Ryan Nejal won the 17 4-pound title for the Comets. Tyler McKay finished second at heavyweight, while Dan Castro and David Navarette placed third in the 141 and 125-pound classes respectively.

"I'm happy with the way we finished," said head

coach Byron Campbell. "We had a chance to win some other matches that could have gone either way."

MEN'S SOCCER The Comets played their final match of the non-conference season, a 4-2 loss at Victor Valley Sept. 27.

Palomar (2-6-2) will open Pacific Coast Conference play Oct. 12 at home versus Southwestern.

"Our record is deceiving because the teams we have played have all been top teams with the exception of San Bernardino Valley," said head coach Carlos Hernandez. "We like to schedule top teams because it makes us stronger."

He added, "I like our chances in league, it's not that strong this year."

CROSS COUNTRY The Comets continue to prepare for the conference meet Oct. 27 at Balboa Park. Palomar has been training rigorously, running hills and terrains all around the campus in addition to runs along the beach.

Competitive nature fuels athlete

By Chrystall Kanyuck

TKE TELEStOPE

hletes everywhere wonder hat it takes to be eat.

Shauna Gibbs, record setting Palomar water polo player, has a few things working in her favor.

"I've always been really competitive," said Gibbs, who set a Palomar record with 101 steals last season. Gibbs was also fourth on the goal-scoring list, among other honors like being all-conference and all Southern California.

Gibbs, a sophomore, has already had an eight goal-game this season and plays utility.

She is a fire science major and is working on her emergency medical technician classes.

She explained that while growing up she always played team sports, and that her competitive personality helped her excel.

Like many athletes, she always encountered some-

one on the team that was better than her.

"I felt like I need to be as good as them," Gibbs said.

Her desire to match the skills of other players drove her to continually get better.

She even competes with her brother at home.

'We could be fighting, and I know I'm wrong, but I still can't back down," she said.

Another point in Gibbs' favor is support, which she receives from her parents.

"My parents are behind me 100 percent, which is really motivating," she said.

Gibbs said her parents always encouraged her to play team sports.

"My mom always wanted us to be active," she said.

Gibbs started playing soccer at age 5, as did her older brother and sister. Both of her parents are physically active. Her mother and are soccer father coaches, and her mom teaches P.E. Her mom Irene said Shauna loved swimming from a very young age.

Goalie Brittany Clack had what she called one of her best games ever for the Comets women's water polo, recording GRIFFINS 7 14 saves en route to COMETS II an 11-7 victory over visiting Grossmont College Sept. 27.

Throughout the entire game, the score was close but the Comets were able to pull ahead in the fourth quarter as leading scorer Shauna Gibbs scored three of her five goals to secure the victory.

The win improved Palomar's record to 63 and 2-1 in Pacific Coast Conference play.

"We needed to go out and we needed to win and we were able to pull off a win," said head coach Kelly Falcone. "Even though we made a lot of mistakes and we were still able to win, I guess that says a lot, but it also says we have a lot of things that we need to work on."

Palomar scored the first goal of the

game, but the Griffins would soon tie it up.

After Clack blocked the first shot, Grossmont rebounded and Clack was unable to stop a second shot. That tied the game at 1-1 with three minutes remaining in the first quarter.

Paige Stephens stepped up to give Palomar the 2-1 advantage going into the second quarter, scoring the first of her two goals. She also had seven assists.

"She was a key person in this game and she was able to get the ball to our open players so they could shoot the ball," Falcone said of Stephens.

Two minutes into the second quarter, Grossmont tied the game. However, that was short lived as Keri Ann Parris scored one of her two goals less than a minute later to put Palomar on top 4-3.

The third quarter was a battle of defenses as Palomar scored once to start the final quarter with a 7-5 advantage.

The Comets were able to outscore the Griffins four goals to two in the final quar-

ter, taking the air out of the sails of Grossmont and pushing Palomar to its second PCC victory of the year.

"I think the biggest thing was that we were able to pull it out in the fourth quarter and definitely raise the intensity in that quarter and close out the game 4-2, so that was good," Falcone said.

Falcone said the most important time of the season is upon the Comets because of their hectic tournament schedule this month.

The Comets have two tournaments, the Long Beach Tournament on Oct. 22 and 23, and the Chaffey Mini Tournament a week later to finish off their season. Following that, the Comets will start the PCC championships, which determines who makes the playoffs.

"It's a good thing we are making these mistakes now," Falcone said. "That way we know the things we need to correct, but I think this game showed that we are a strong team."
