Discussing Im1nigration Issues Through Fil "\Vhy Don't They Just Go Hom

)ESSIE SOUKUP

E\PO ['-. T \ VRIT R

On Wednesday, Nov. 15. the Bozeman Film Festival and MSU Department of Modern Languages and Literatures showed the second film of their film series, "Why Don't They Just Go Home?'". on con­temporary immigration. Held at the Emerson Cultural Center, this film focused on Jewish French Israelis. Titled "Go Live and Become" in English, this French film won the Audience Award in 2005 at the Berlin Film Festival.

Patricia Catoira, Ada Giusti, and Bridget Kevane, all part of the Modern Languages depart­ment, and Michael Finkel and Paula Mozen. nationally rec­ognized researchers. were involved with the production. promotion, and support of the film series.

The first :ilm. "Balseros" or "Cuban Rafters," is a film about the lives of Cuban rafters artempting to reach the coast of Florida in 1994 and was shown on Nov. I.

"We wanted to put together

a provocative series of films," Mozen. an award-winning social-issue documentary film­maker, said.

In discussing Wednesday night's film and the struggles of the French Israelis. Giusti said, "It's not just fiction , it's reality."

The film dove into the lives of Ethiopian Jews, also referred to as Falashas, and their dream of returning to Jerusalem. Wanting to go into more depth about modern immigra­tion, the producers of the film series found this theme very important. In this particular struggle, Falashas walked from Ethiopia to Sudan where planes would take them to Israel. This journe) occurred during the 1980s and was referred to as "Operation Moses." The opera­tion was able to save 4,000 Falashas, while another 4.000 died along the way.

"When we get to the Holy Land, we'll all be white, won't we mommy?" The small Falasha child at the beginning of the film asked his mothe ..

Every year. a different coun­try is chosen for the national celebration of other countries and their impact on the United States. This year, India was the country of focus.

On Monday. Nov. 13, Elizabeth Blanchford kicked off the week with a sack lunch presentation titled "On the Trail of Shiva."

Blanchford is an International Programs Specialist for OIP. and she often travels to India for stu­dent recruitment.

This presentation high-lighted one of her recent trips down the coast of the southern Indian state, Tamil Nadu, near Sri Lanka

During the roadtrip. she \\as able to tour many differem tem­ples. mostly dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva.

Shiva, she explained, is one of the more popular gods in Hinduism with a fairly large fol­lowing. His animal is a bull. and he is usually blue with man) arms and one of his consorts.

In the presentation. she showed pictures of all the dif­ferent temples and images of Shiva: She showed the "daP..c­ing Shiva" in happy (creator) and angry (destroyer) form, the Shiva lingam (the phallic symbol that is in the sanctum sanctorum of every temple), and the three white stripes that are painted on the forehead of all Shiva fol­lowers along with their "bindi" or "third/spiritual eye."

Blanchford finished her pre­sentation by showing many pic­tures of the areas she went to. She talked about stone carving techniques still done b} hand and the colorful materials that are worn and sold throughout India.

However, do not expect narcotic pain medica­tion simply because you show up to the ER and complain of pain.

at 6.5 billion. Countries such as Luxembourg, New Zealand , and Australia have high populations of foreigners, estimated to make up between 20 and 30 percent of their total populations. In the United States, there are currently 33.1 million people that are foreign­born, making up 11 .5 percent of t he population. The Census Bureau estimates eight to nine million of these to be illegal immigrants, but those that are legal now make up 6 percent of U.S. eligible voters.

"We are hoping that peo­ple understand that the immi­gration issue is very topical today and a lso a very global issue discussed all over the world," Giusti, a professor of French at MSU, said.

The film series was also named after her recently published book by the same name, "Why Don't They Just Go Home?" The non-fiction book examines contemporary French immigration and has

received critical acclaim in France.

After the showing of the film. a panel discussion was conducted.

"It's not just fiction, it's real­ity," Gi usti said during the dis­cussion. "We wanted to attract the community so we had it at the Emerson, and thought it would be good to discuss the topic with both students and community members."

Catoira was able to bring in students through the Modern Languages Department. The overall objective of putting on this series of films was to make students and the community

aware that there are millions of refugees in the world.

Giusti said she wants to make people aware that there are also refugee camps, hold­ing refugees for up to thi rty years. It is possible for people to be born and raised in ref­ugee camps. Through these films, the group hoped to

raise awareness about modern immigration.

"Political refugees are hardly ever discussed ," Giusti said. "but they are immigrants t oo, leaving for other rea­sons , such as war. We can't say we don't want any; we're a humanitarian country."

'Cats lose to Gtiz -and still make the playoffs!

"Holy. crap! How did we make the play­offs!?" That was my first reaction after visiting www.bobcatna­tion.com. click­

Not only did the 'Cats make It to the playoffs - despite finish­ing tied for second in the Big Sk]' w~h a 7-4 record - but their first game is to be played m Bozeman this Saturday at 11 :30 a.m.

My second reaction to view­ing the bracket was, "Where the hell is Furman?" That is who the 'Cats play in the first round, and the school is located in Greenville, S.C. It doesn't snow

The football team. Montana State University and the town of Bozeman should be eternally grateful to the D1v1sion I selec­tion committee that gave the ream an at-large bid.

It's not often that a team can lose to a Divison II school at home (Chadron). get pounded 45-0 by another school (UC Davis), lose to its chief rival (Montana). finish an I I-game season with four losses, and STILL get a home playoff game to salvage its sea­son. It is quite amazing and the we can only hope that the 'Cats play with this in mind.

The team would do well to remember that sense of despera­tion that they played with. at times, against the Griz. Well, at least the defense did.

As bad as the offense looked , there were some highlights. The offensive line (Peder Jensen. Joe Hirst, Brant Birkeland, Louis Saucedo. Jeff Hansen) did a good job protecting jack Rolovich.

Aaron Mason is a dependable runner who does an excellent job of exploding through holes. but still having the patience to run behind his blockers.

Unfortunately, the passing back and wide receiver positions did not display consistency or patience.

cisive against the Griz defense. Josh Lewis made one long

catch to set up a touchdown but was absent the rest of the game. Donnell Wheaton got rocked with a hit early 111 the game and was barely mentioned after that.

Mike Jefferson flat-out embarrassed the Bobcats with his idiotic chest-thumping after get­ting his helmet removed from his head by yet another big Grizzly hit. He proceeded to drop catch­able passes all day as he looked to be rattled by the crowd and the Gnz secondary.

The defense did what it had to do to win the game. They forced fumbles, blocked a kick, inter­cepted passes, and turned poten-

tial touchdowns into field goals. Looking ahead to the Funnan

game, the MSU defense needs to focus on Furn1an's running game.

The combination of Jerome Felton (670 yards. 22 touchdo1.vns) and Cedrick Gipson (845 yards. four touches) is what the MSU defense has to focus on.

The Funnan defense is suscep­tible to rushmg. so Mason might be able to bust a couple big runs.

This will be the first home­playoff game in 22 years for the Bobcats, so there will be just a little bit of anticipation.

Hopefully the fans can get up for this game and make noise , and hopefully the team will he clicking on cylinders. Let's do it!

The Ultimate Fighting Championship was in full throt­tle Saturday in Sacramento, CA. with nine fights on rhe card and two belts on the line.

In the Heavyweight division (205-265 lbs.), current cham­pion Tim "The Maine-iac" Sylvia looked to defend his title against the established grappler. Jeff "The Snowman" Monson.

In Welterweight ( 155-170 lbs.) action legendary champion Matt Hughes fought to defend his belt against the talented and expenenced upstart, Georges St. Pierre. Apart from the two title fights numerous other exciting battles took place.

Saturday 111ght started with some exciting undercard fights. Interesting match-ups, includ­ing a fight in the Hea\')'\\eight d1\ 1sion bet\\een Brandon "The Truth" \'era and former cham­pion. Frank ~!tr, kept rhe night exhilarating while 111 wait of

the championship fights. Vera defeated Mir early in the fourth round by TKO, landing some nasty shots with his heavy hands. Vera is an up-and-coming heavy­weight with a great shot at the title. In fact, the next challenger to the belt may be Vera and. after his impressive perforn1ance Saturday night, many think he might be the next champion.

The fight bet\veen Sylvia and Monson was a strange spec­tacle. One could see Monson. a ground fighter, trying really hard to take Sylvia, the much bigger opponent, down to the ground. Sylvia had an impressive take­down defense, though , and pre­vented Monson from real!; taking advantage of his good Jiu:)itsu skills. Sylvia never really made an offensive mo\'e though and a boring fight was drawn out for 25 minutes Sylvia won b} decision. amidst slashmg boos from the crowd 111 Sacramento Somethmg strange happened before the fight though: Monson while bemg introduced, walked out to john

Lennon's "Imagine." Monson gets mega points for being creative and using possibly the coolest intro song ever in the UFC. It is slightly paradoxical, introducing a fighter with a song promoting peace, but it was still awesome.

The Welterweight title fight, a viCious rematch bet\veen Hughes and Pierre, was publi­cized and talked up for weeks prior to the bout and, thank­fully, the fight didn't disappomt. Pierre took Hughes' covered belt by TKO in the second round. He almost knocked Hughes out 111

the first round, but Hughes was, for lack of a better term, saved by the bell.

The first round consisted mostly of Hughes taking nasty jabs and leg kicks until a shot to his forehead rocked him a little. Pierre jumped on him , pinning him and throwing haymakers. trying to end the fight. But the bell went off and Hughes was blessed with another chance. Midway through the second round though, Hughes went

for a takedown right as Pierre decided to throw a mid-body kick. Coincidentally, Pierre's mid­body kick turned into a shin­to-temple-kick and Hughes was knocked to the ground . Pierre jumped on immediately, wasting no time, until the referee stopped the fight. Pierre fell prostrate on the ground, overcome with emo­tion at achieving his dream.

Whenever a belt changes hands, it's a Pay Per View worth seeing. Despite the crapmess of the first championship fight, Saturday night was a good night in the UFC.

Between great undercards and the crowning of a new cham­pion. UK 65 was stellar and will surely spark both re-matches. 111

Hughes and Pierre's case, and a move towards the top, in Vera's case. Watch for the next UFC PPV in December. when Chuck ''The Iceman" Liddell defends his title 111 the Lightweight divi­sion agamst an old nemesis, Tito "The Huntington Beach Badboy" Ortiz.

Jotball: Bobcats steal spot in postseason despite loss It was a battle of the defenses this past weekend as Montana State took on Montana at Washington­

dium in Missoula. The low-scoring game ended in the favor of the Grizzlies, 13-7. The Bobcats took a 7-3 lead into halftime, courtesy of an Aaron Mason touchdown and a stellar formance by the MSU defense. However, the Grizzlies flexed their muscle in the third quarter as

tirterback josh Swoggert hit Eric Allen for a 54-yard score. The Grizzlies then hit a field goal with en minutes remaining to take the lead for good. Quarterback jack Rolovich, who left the game mid-way through the fourth quarter with an injury,

s 14-28 for 125 yards with two interceptions. Aaron Mason led the 'Cats with four catches, as well 19 rushes for 44 yards. The defense was led by Bo by Daly with nine tackles, while Andre Fuller pro­ed seven tackles with a fumble recovery, an interception, and three pass break-ups.

rn's Basketball: Bobcats split on the road The Montana State men's basketball team was on the road this past week. The Bobcats (1-3) lost

dose battle to the University of Portland and stole a win against the University of Idaho . Carlos Taylor led the Bobcats with 19 points, but it was not enough as the 'Cats came up short in

9-53 loss. The game was close throughout, but in the end it was the poor free-throw shooting by lU that propelled Portland to the win . Ted Morris had nine points to go along with 11 boards, and sey Durham chipped in nine points and five assists.

The Bobcats then drove down the highway to play the Vandals ofldaho. Morris logged a double-double, points and 13 rebounds, to lead the Bobcats to a 72-65 win. Nick Dissly, who was absent from the first J games with an ankle injury, came off the bench to score nine points, two steals and three assists.

11men's Basketball: Lady 'Cats have successful road trip The Lady 'Cats won one contest and lost another as they were on the road this past week. MSU

(l) topped Long Beach State , and lost a close battle to the Beavers of Oregon State. Whitney Connelly led the Bobcats with 17 points to go along with ten rebounds against Long

Jch State on Friday night. Despite a 12-point halftime deficit, the Lady 'Cats rallied to pull ahead for 78-68 victory. Rebecca Mercer also provided 17 points, and guard Alyssa Nelson chipped in with

points of her own. On Sunday night, the Bobcats fought hard but came up short as they fell to Oregon State 69-

' Nubia Garcia and Mercer each had 13 points for the Bobcats. Garcia also pulled down ten boards.

Team Becker is beating cow­milk 16, 91-52, with cowmilk depending on Tiki and the Giants

D to get the comeback win. In the RedZone Game of the

Week, Neon Black Tanks used another super-human perfor­mance from Tomlinson to sur­pass Kstars Overdrive and take the lead, 93-77. Kstars needs Fred Taylor to bust a couple touch­downs if they want to avoid liv­ing in shame in the Tanner, Mike, and Kevin household.

That's the week in review. We'll be back next week to talk about how good turkey is.

SPORTS/'

Random and quick sports thoughts .. . While deflating all

thundersticks in sight

-~-ic::::i.__ _____ K_Y_L_E_S_T_A_;_CK_ On Friday, I learned that Gilbert SPORTS EDITOR watches other NBA games TO

Hey, did anybody hear that Bo Shembechler died?Yeah, ljust heard about it. I must have been

sleeping in a tomb buried under about 15 feet of solid rock, just off the coast of Antarctica ...

By now, you should know that I am tired ofthundersticks. Well , I am also tired of football players pretending to shoot a basketball after they make a good play.

The New York Giants defense started this trend a few weeks ago. Then, David Carr mocked them in a Giants-Texans game when he shot an invisible ball after throwing a touchdown. That's PRECISELY when we should have known this celebration would get out of hand - when David "What happened to my life? I'm being benched in favor of Sage Rosenfels" Carr was using it as his form of trash talking.

The celebration has trickled down to college as random Pitt, Ohio State, and Cal players have used it. Please. This is worse than all the NFL teams copying the Lambeau Leap ...

Reason #7 why having at least two televisions in a living room is a good idea: Watching Cat-Griz and Michigan-Ohio State at the same time. Oh, baby ...

Swin Cash is pretty sexy .. .

Gilbert Arenas plays online poker during the halftime of games. had the oxygen level in his house reduced so that he could increase his endurance for the NBA season, and wears the number 0 because that's the number of minutes critics said he would play when he was a freshman at the University of

Arizona.

SCOUT REFEREES. He learns the tendencies of the officiating of cer­tain refs to better prepare himself for future games. What a guy .. .

Conspiracy Theory of the Week: The University of Michigan killed Bo Shembechler to give their players the extra motiva­tion they needed to beat Ohio State in Ohio Stadium.

In a related note, last week­end probably set the record for most times anyone will ever hear the word 'Shembechler.' Between Friday and Saturday, I have a rough count of 531 . The best part was watching Lou Holtz spit all over the desk on the set of College Gameday as he tried to pronunciate 'Shembechler.' ...

I hate Ohio State but I have to admit that their marching band tradition of forming the word 'Ohio' and then dotting the I is very cool. ..

Quote of the week #1: (My roommate Chris explaining to roommate Dan why the Big Ten can't be called the Big Eleven , even though that's how many teams are in the conference) - "Da Ten. Da Eleven. See, it just doesn't make sense." ...

I like rhe Cubs paying big for Soriano. He'll put up numbers ...

McNabb is finished - as are the Eagles' Super Bowl hopes ...

Reggie Wayne IS the best # 2 wide receiver in rhe NFL. His hands, route running, and decep­tive speed and quickness make him better than most #1 's ...

Way to go Rutgers ...

Florida or USC? I say UF. ..

As the holiday season approaches, we can look forward to Christmas music resounding in every public place, a general lack of money, and. theoretically some fresh powder. Along with all of those things comes a wave of highly anticipated movies. Flushed Away

The makers of"Chicken Run" and "The Wallace and Gromit Movie" brmg to life the story of a privileged rat who gets flushed down the toilet. While I fear for family pets across the nation meeting an untimely plumbing-related demise. this animated flick looks like a fun way to waste an afternoon. There"s nothing like a good chil­dren's movie for the mind of an over.vhelmed college student. As a bonus, the plot offers what could be a touching life lesson: the sewer is a great place to make friends. The Santa Clause 3: The Escape

Clause Tim Allen should just give up

and get a job at Macy's like all of the other obnoxious, drunk. fat guys in red suits. How do I know Allen is an obnoxious, drunk, fat guy? What else could have convinced him to make this movie? Now if he could just get Macaulay Culkin in the mix, it might be crazy enough to work. Stranger than Fiction

Will Ferrell keeps making fantastic career decision after fantastic career decision. In "Stranger than Fiction" he plays an IRS agent named Harold Crick who discovers the voice of a novelist narrating his life. Ferrell was made for the kind of sincere comedy that it takes to blend the Enc between real­ity and imagination. The only thing that bothers me about this movie is that it's pretty much impossible to say any­thing funny about a movie that doesn"t suck. Babel

"Babel" is one of Brad Pitt's

annual pretentious Oscar-vehi­cles used to distract fans from the fact that he and Angelina Jolie are mass procreating in order to spawn their very own master race. Beware the onslaught of beautiful, physi­cally fit children with obscenely large lips and egos. Yes, I would sleep with both of them. Yes. I will see this movie. But you can't make me like any of it. Happy Feet

"Happy Feet" is a children's movie about how hard it is to get laid when you're a penguin. The penguin males must sing in order to attract a mate. The pro­tagonist one particular penguin with mad dance skills who can't carry a tune. It is a comedic recipe that combines every pos­sible thing to warm your heart and put a spring in your step. There's singing and dancing and fuzzy little balls of cute voiced by Elijah Wood - what more could you possibly want? Casino Royale

Yes. Yes. YES! I don't want to hear anyone's crap about why it's wrong for Bond to be blonde. Bond

is a state of mind - a presence steeped in reckless sex appeal. Hair color does not factor into one's ability to be a badass. He has hair- hair that is attractively ruffled in a charming yet cocky, boyish kind of way - and that is really all I need . Go to this movie. Revel in its glory. And then petition Holl)'\-Vood to stop making origin movies. We now know how Bond became 007 and how Bruce Wayne became Batman. Enough is enough. Let's Go to Prison

This movie looks like it should be funny and therefore. by the third law of cinematics, it probably isn't. Dax Shepard apparently got sick of tapping the leftovers of Ashton Kutcher and Dane Cook and graduated to the compleA and sophisti­cated art of making jokes about prison showers and black guys drinking pee. Live the dream, Dax. live the dream. The Fountain
