Marist College held its annual
Family
Weekend this past week-
end, which began on Friday
,
Sept. 30 and continued until
Sunday
,
Oct. 2
.
The college offered a wide
range of entertainmen
t
,
kicking it
off on Friday night with Colin
Moehrle and Brad Sherwood
from the popular te
l
evision pro-
gram,
"Whose
Line is
It
Anyway?"
On
Saturday
evening
,
those registered were
treated to a performance by
pianist Michael Cavanaugh from
the
hit
Broadway musical
"Movin' Out."
Freshman Mackenzie Lirak.is
said she thoroughly enjoyed the
comedy skits from "Whose Line
is
It
Anyway?" even though she
wasn't familiar with the show.
"It was pretty funny. l'rri not
even a huge fan of the show but
it was great how they invo
l
ved
the audience," Lirakis
said. "The
best was the improv
,
when they
picked sentences that the audi-
ence wrote out of a box and used
them as
lines
in
th
e
ir
scene; i
t
was totally random and was real-
ly funny."
One tradition
that has
grown
at
M'aruit is the
Penny Social Which
took place
on
Saturday on the
Campus Green. At this event,
students and family members
are
invited to
try
to win baskets cre-
ated by clubs and other organiza
-
tions on campus. The baskets
have become quite the spectacle,
some containing over $200
worth of prizes. This event has
also been made a club challenge
by the Council of Clubs. The
winning c
l
ub gains points
towards becoming Club of the
Year.
The hope was that this
would encourage more clubs to
participate and build more
impressive baskets.
Many offices on campus see
Family Weeke
n
d as an educa-
tional opportunity as well. The
Abroad Program offered an
informational
session
on
Saturday to communicate the
benefits of spending a semester
abroad. Students who recently
returned from being abroad were
present at the session to field
questions and discuss their expe~
riences.
Junior Eric Burczynski thought
th~
college did an excellent job
of putting on all the activities.

One reason cited by
students was

Security Briefs: By Brian Sabella
How's your campus? Why dontcha eat up and we'U tell ya?
Security Legenq
Dear Reader,
Evczy hear about infinite mon-
key theory? The basic gist of
it
is that a
thousand
monkeys,
given immortality, infinite time,
typewriters and
John
Gildard
will eventually write a security
briefs column that people will
like. At
least
I think that's what
the
theory
is. Anyway, I went
online with our expense account
and found a great deal on an
immortal typing monkey·from a
guy in.Myanmar.
Wouldn't
you
know
it, they don't
have
Paypal
in
Southeast Asia.
I
scrambled
for someone
to
replace the mon-
key and found Brian Sabella, a
senior majoring in
marketing.
He's a real
person;
my days of
indulging schizophrenic fan-
tasies on this page are over.

At MSPP
I
want
to
first examine the
indictment of the House majori-
ty leader Tom Delay, who was
charged with criminal conspira-
cy to transfer contributions
from
corporations to Texas candi-
dates' campaign funds.
If
you

d ind

all
four pages of it, you will find
only the briefest mention of Tom
Delay. In fact, though detailed
note is taken
of
the actions of
tite oth=
l\, t.1.
lllsfendants, (John
D.
C
olyantJro i(ld James W.
Ellis) there is absolutely
nothing
said about Delay other than that
broad charge of 'conspiracy.'
Moreover, there is but one piece
of evidence presented in the
indictment to prove any kind of
misconduct and felony commit-
ted -
a check written for
$190,000 by Colyandro.
The
way the Democratic Party
and the media have jumped on
this story, you'd think that
Delay had committed an act of
murder on
live
television! Even
considering a staggering dearth
of evidence, House minority
leader Nancy Pelosi had
no
problem
calling the indictment
" ... the
latest
example that
Republicans in Congress are
plagued by a culture of corrup-
tion at the expense of the
American people."

,
it

Today
,
millions of American
s
suffer from obesity,
an often troubling issue in a world so concerned
with
appearance
s
and fad ruets
.
As a consrantly
growing
conc
e
rn
,
obe
s
ity often begins
in
child-
hood and has man
y
devastating repercussions later
in life
,
among which include Type 2 diabetes

Acc

"Obe

,

No human condition - not
race
,

,
ethnicity or disease state -
compares to obe
s
ity in prevalence and prejudice,
mortality and morbidity
,
sickness and stigma."
More
than
30 medical conditions
are
associated
with o

,
and many of
these are

remedies comes in the
form
of weight loss camps
for overweight children
,
known more prominent
l
y
as
"fat camp.
n
Though the movie "Heavyweights" addresses
many issues that one might
see
at a weight
loss
camp, it docs not do the
true nature
of such camps
justice.
In
a study of one such camp, CNN
.
com
explains, "campers eat measured portions
.
take
morning walks
,
compile journa
l
s that monitor their
food intake and attend counseling sessions
four
times
per
week." Certainly,
Ben Stiller
does not
prance around in spandex
as
overweigh
t
children
struggle to improve their bodies
and. in
tum,
their
health
.
Alice Ammerman. an associate professor in the
department of nutrition at the University of North
Carolina suggests that "fitness camps might help
overweigh
t
children avoid feeling s
i
ngled out."
In
an
environment where the majority of the campers
are
considered "fat
kids,"
there is a less likely
chance for individual teasing
as
the campers all
face the
same
physicaJ and psychological issues.
In
tum,
fitness
camps allow for overweight chil•
dren to
deal
with their own personal issues in an
accepting and encouraging environment. Fitness
camps al
l
ow these children
t
o avoid such problems
as
anxiety and depressio
n
that
can
contribute to
their obesity and overall happiness.
Schools
in
New Jersey have recently begun
implementing a
lighter
lunch menu to offer
in
cafe-
terias, another step taken to conque
r
childhood
obesity. Vending machines have been becoming
more and more
scarce
in schools,
h
oping that by
encouraging healthier options
,
students will steer
away from quick-snacks which
are
often high
in
sugar and ca
l
ories.
The New York Times explains, schools have
begun

,
seniors Mark Santucci
and Federico Rolon claimed their

by dealing previously undefeated
teammates Leonardo Rodriguez
and Pedro Genovese their first
loss. Both pairs shredded their
competition all weekend, notch-
ing several convincing victories,
including
consecutive
8-1
thrashings in the
first and second
rounds by Rolon and Santucci. In
the finals matchup, Santucci and
Rolon bested their teammates 8-

"Unfortunately
,
we had to play
two teammates in the final,"
Santucci said. "But that just

Although four Red Foxes
played against each other, Smith
said it gave Marist a better shot
for future contests.

It was the second Sil)jles cham-

Smith said Wasbeek

Marks, a sophomore walk--on

Coach Smith said that

continued from page 3
minute, I thought we were talk-
ing about Tom Delay here.
Where did this "culture of cor-
ruption" comment come from?
This quote and others similar to
it
seem to point, at the very
least
,
to a quick exploitation of the sit-
uation
for
political
gain.
Democratic politicians
didn't
care about DeLay's alleged
wrongdoing; they only sought to
tum his predicament to political
advantage.
It's a two-for-one
deal, really.
Not only was
Delay, a powerful political
play-
er in the D.C. arena forced
to
step down as House majority
leader, but Democrats got to take
a cheap pot-shot at Republicans
in general.
I'll leave aside the ongoing
investigation into Senate majori-
ty
leader Bill
Frist's sudden (pos-
sibly
illegal)
stock sales,
precise-
ly because there really isn't
enough
information
that
has
turned up
yet.
I
will
repeat,
though,
that it
seems
highly
irregular for
not
one
but
two
powerful,
Republican
politicians
to come
under fire
at
the
exact
same
time.
I tum now,
•to a story
about
for-
mer
Secretary of
Education Bill
Bennett.
On his radio program,
Bennett
made
a comment on the
air
that
hit national news. The
only
problem?
His words were
taken so far out of context
that he
appeared
to
be
saying
the
exact
opposite of
his true meaning.
Bennett's exact
quote
was,
"If
you wanted
to reduce
crime, you
could
- if that
were your sole
pur-
pose - you couJd abort every
black
baby in this country and
your crime
rate
would go down.
That
would be
an
impossibly
ridiculous
and morally
reprehen-
sible thing to do, but your crime
rate would go down."
What
filtered through the
media was that Bennett was a
racist. His quote though, was
twisted to fit
that
conception,
however
.
In
interviews
with
CNN and Rush Limbaugh,
among others, Bennett tried to
explain the
truth. Bennett was
certainJy not advocating such a
cruel, cold position - he was
using a completely hypothetical
situation
to
make a point. What
he was actually saying was that
even a positive result (a lower
crime rate) by no means justifies
the manner in which that end is
achieved.
ln
other words, having
something good come from an
evil act does not validate per-
fonning that evil in the first
place.
Democrats ignored ( or perhaps
didn't understand) the true intent
of Bennett's statement, though,
and used it as a springboard
to
attack the
Republican
Party.
Rep. Robert Rush commented,
"Where is the indignation from
the GOP, as one of their promi-
nent
members
talks
about abort-
ing an entire race of Americans
as a way of
ridding
this country
of crime?"
(www.cnn.com)
Again, why the attack on
the
GOP? Wasn't this about an iso-
lated comment made by an iso-
lated
man who happens to be a
Republican
(leaving aside, of
course,
that the
comment was
misconstrued).
Nancy Pelosi took this ploy a
step
further
and
attacked
President Bush, demanding that
he formally denOW1Ce Bennett's
remarks. "What could possibly
have
possessed
Secretary
Bennett
to say those words, espe-
cially at this time?" said
Pelosi.
(www.cnn.com) Yet again, we
see the
involvement
of a com-
pletely unrelated political figure
in this story, George W. Bush.
I personally suspect that the
reason Democrats
insist
on such
unwarranted entanglement of the
GOP is because they would like
nothing better to
decry
certain
prominent
Republicans
as
racists. Oh, wait, they already
have. Where was the press when
Rep. Charles Rangel actually
DID compare President Bush
to
BuJl Connor, a man who ordered
firefighters and police officers
to
tum
their hoses and dogs on a
civil rights demonstration in
1963.
It should be plainly evident by
now that the two trumped-up sto-
ries of Delay and Bennett are
nothing more than a springboard
to attack the Republican Party as
a whole.
The exploitation of
these situations is despicable,
and should be seen for what
it
truly is - a rather transparent
effort to reduce and undercut
the
power of the current majority in
Washington, D.C.
Allegations against Republicans seems suspicious ...

In

must

how is

undermining
the

Why
do
they claim
life is better
for Americans across the board
and the defining
lines
of inequal-
ity are fading when the opposite
is obviously true?
I believe a perfect example of
such injustice is the lethargic
response
to
the disaster of
Hurricane Katrina. The minori•
ty-heavy region of New Orleans
and the Mississippi River Delta
suffered one of the most devas•
tating
natural
disasters of our
nation's history and it was three
days before President Bush
left
his ranch in Texas, flew over the
affected area, and observed the
wreckage from the cockpit of his
jumbo jet.
The government's
disaster relief efforts have since
been moving with the speed and
proficiency of a squid attempting
to operate a unicycle.
The government's priorities
seem terribly misaligned from
the needs of the
people
and
appallingly
indifferent
to
deprived families. To ensure a
society free of
prejudice

social subjugation that provides
each of its young citizens with

huge
responsi-

to

Any
hope
of conceiving such a socie-
ty
dissolves
when the govern-
ment
itself
persecutes the
defenseless and turns a blind eye
to the needs of the very people it
is responsible for protecting.
Through the Bush administra-
tion's reprehensible conduct, a
society integral of equality has
tran;itioned from a difficult,
but
realistic
goal to an unattainable
fantasy.

Cavanaugh brings Broadway's finest to Marist College
By
KELLY LAlJTURNER
Circle Contributor
You can call
it whatever you
like, but to singer Michael
Cavanaugh, it's still rock and
roll. Despite the
fact
that
Marist
students, for the most
part,
were
born in the mid..eighties, they
proved rock from the sixties to
the eighties is still popular.
Cavanaugh and his band of the
Broadway musical "Movin' Out"
played at Marist College for par-
ents' weekend on Saturday, Oct.
I. Together, they performed
many classic
Billy Joel songs
that are featured in the musical,
as well as other classic rock
songs. The McCann Center was
packed fuU of parents and stu-
dents who were able to connect
through Cavanaugh 's music.
When Cavanaugh walked onto
the stage, he greeted Marist by
yelling, "Red Foxes in the
House!" He began the show with
Billy Joel's "My Life" which is
easily an anthem for college stu-
dents trying to gain freedom
from their parents. He followed
it up with the epic Billy Joel hit,
"Scenes
from
an
ItaJian
Restaurant" which is the opening
song for "Movin' Out."
Cavanaugh 's band
members
have all had piofessional experi-
ence with rock bands, and most
of them played with Billy Joel.
Cavanaugh also did two other
Billy Joel classics from the show,
"Movin' Out (Anthony's Song)"
and the famous piano piece,
"(Prelude)
Angry
Young Man."
Cavanaugh made sure the audi-
ence felt included in the show,
inviting everyone to dance in
front of the stage; about
I 00
enthusiastic audience members
complied. Margeaux Lippman, a
freshman who danced at the con-
cert, enjoyed the show.
"It
was a great concert because
of the energy of the crowd. I
wanted to hear more Billy Joel,
but
I
had a lot of
fun
dancing in
the front," she said.
In addition to Billy Joel songs,
Cavanaugh
got the
crowd
pumped up by doing other songs
such as Lynard Skynard's "Sweet
Home Alabama" and the Beatles'
"Twist and Shout." The band did
hits by Elton John, Little
Richard, and The Rolling Stones.
Cavanaugh also took requests,
honoring one sign that asked
for Joel's "Uptown Girl."
The band also performed
Joel's "Just the Way You
Are" as a special trijlute to a
student's parents who were
celebrating their twenty-
fifth
anniversary. The crowd
in front of the stage joined
together, swaying back and
fourth during the
song.
One freshman at the con-
cert who wishes to remain
unidentified said,
"He
did
the covers amazingly well
and he was very personable.
It
was cool that
he
was so
open about
the requests. He
did a lot of old classics well,
and they were songs that
both the parents and the kids
knew."

applause, Cavanaugh and
the band came back on stage for
their encore.
They performed
Aerosmith 's "Walk This Way"
and finally Billy Joel's soulful
hit, "Pianoman."
Michael Cavanaugh is a native
of Ohio, coming from a town
outside of Cleveland. He began
taking piano
lessons
at the age of
seven, a hobby that has simce
blossomed into a
lucrative
career. Cavanaugh gladly signed
autographs for fans and posed for
pictures. In response to the show,
Cavanaugh said, "Marist College
is a blast to play for." He got a
Red Foxes hat and was thrilled to
be wearing
it.
"Movin' Out!' is closing

encouraged
her
students
to go
see this perfonnance as the
Guerrilla Girls are a topic for
study later in the semester.
"It
is
iotereSting·w
see these
women use art to fight the art
world," Choromanskis said.
"They're using the very mediwn
they are fighting for to spread
their message."
Gender Equality President
Emily Maldonado and Vice
President Diana Alvarez both
worked very hard to get the
Guerrilla Girls to appear at
Marist.
"Marist College has been final-
ly introduced to the feminist per-
spective," said Alvarez.
Ma1donado, who got to actual-
ly perform on stage with the
Girls, said, "We worked very
hard to get the Guerrilla Girls
On
Tour to perform at Marist. We
met obstacle after obstacle, but it
all worked out in the end, and I
thought the event was a great
success."

'Brothers' provide
stable comedy
in otherwise chaotic film
By KAITLYN
ZAFONTE
Circle Contributor
..
The
Brothers
Grimm,"
the fan-
tasy
adventure film
s1arring
Matt
Damon.
Heath Ledger, and Peter
Stonnare,
and
dtreeted
by
Terry
Gilliam, stands apart
from most
movies in
its
subject
matter and
aesthetic
appeal.
The
story
is
that of the
two
brothers, Will
(Damon) and
Jacob
(Ledger)
Grimm.
They make their living
traveling
from
village
to
village
in
Gennan-controlled
France in
the
early
19th
century,
conning
the
residents
into believing that
there are
villains
lurking and
tricking them into paying the
brothers
to rid them
of
these evil
forces.
Jacob puts the tales
down into his journal to become
the famed Grimm's fairy tales,
Once their scam
is
found out,
they are sent to
a
small
village
where strange and terrible
events
realJy
a.re
taking place and they
must
solve
the mystery of the
disappearance
of eleven
little
girls.
References to many of the
famous
Grimm tales arc made.
The missing girls include Little
Red Riding
Hood
and Gretel of
Hansel and Gretel.
Storylines
from Snow White, The Frog
Prince, and Rapunzel are also
broughl into the
film.
While this
could
have been extremely
c
l
ever.
there was no
real
logic to
which the storie1 came together,
taking away from its impact and
appeal.
Most frustrating was the
ramantic subplot between the
brothers and Angelika (Lena
Heatley). a peasant woman who
helps them, which was
never
resolved. Overall, there was a
lack of
real
coherence and organ-
ization
10
the story giving
it
a
chaotic
feel.
After giving up on the success
of the actual plot, the viewer is
forced to look for other aspects
of the film to enjoy.
Most
impressive in
"The
Brothers
Grimm" were the imagery and
computer
animation and the sur-
prising comic skills of Damon
and Ledger.
The
"bad guys,"
from the evil witch, lo the
half-
manlhalf-wolf creature.
to
the
blob of mud who came to life
aft.er stealing the eyes of a young
girl, were shockingly frighten-
ing. The witch, a composite of
the
evil
queens
from
Snow White
and Rapunzell, was
so
grotesque
and menacing
that
it was difficult
to watch some of her
scenes.
EquaJly
horrifying
was the scene
of a horse ingesting a young
child. The realism and vivid-
ness of these images and actions
was not disappointing.
It
was as
if
Gilham was trying to create
this fantasy world as
it
would
exist in a child's imagination.
Not known for their comedic
roles, Matt Damon and Heath
Ledger were hysterically funny
as Ibey bickered, blubbered and
bantered
with one another.
There was
a
great deal of
physi-
caJ
comedy as well, with their
clumsy attempts at fighting vil-
lains and mad dashes to
escape
danger, Heath Ledger was most
effective
in
his
role as the nerv-
ous. whiny,
love
sick
Jake.
Ledger absorbed the character
completely with exaggerated

as he was in pleasing_ the

ers,
Carrabba made the
attempt to
l
et some of his per-
sonality shine both through
his
l
yrics and in between
his
songs.
Marist College senior,
John
Sumler, attended
the
concert
and said he
reaily
enjoyed the
tone
of Carrabba's voice and
the interaction he had with the
crowd.
"His
[Carrabba
's] voice is
of "This Bitter Pill" off their
''The Places You Have Come
to
Fear

Dashboard Confessional's
encore included some of the
most
weH
known songs such
as "Best Deceptions" and
"Vindicated" off the sound-
track from the Spiderman
2
movie.
Both of these songs
finished with Carrabba steJ)-
ping
away
from
his micro-
phone
and singing along to the
sound of the crowd as they
overpowered his voice.
While the energy of
the
crowd seemed to

ed during the encore,
the
Dashboard Confessional
started off the concert
in
the
Marist
College
McCann
Center by playing
"Arn I
Missing,'' one of their faster
paced songs. They kept up
the momentum and attempted
to build on the ~nergy of the
half
packed gymnasium for
their first four songs.
The fifth song
in
the set,
"For You to Notice .. ," was a
more
low-key
emotiona
l
bal-
lad that is one of the trade-
mark
characteristics
of
Dashboard

sound. Yet, it was this sound
that seemed to draw the
