Chess Club

When Jesse Foster started at Centennial College he was surprised that there wasn’t

a chess club and that there hadn’t been one for ten years. He quickly resolved that problem by starting one and now he is the President of Centennial College’s Chess Club.

“It was pretty easy to get it started,” Foster said. “Now it’s a matter of trying to keep it going.”

The group has 35 members and they are always looking for new members. The meetings are in the CCSAI building at Progress Campus and are very relaxed. You can drop by between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

If you are interested in chess but don’t know how to play, no worries. They invite anyone to come and “at any level and through casual play, increase peoples understanding of the game.” Foster said.

He adds that if you don’t know the game at all, they can introduce it to you and teach you how to play.

On a cold and dark Wednesday night, a few paramedic students meet at a parking

lot near the Morningside campus for a weekly practice of standardized drills. President Blair Phillips and Vice President Kathleen Kozich, who started the club, welcome them and are eager to start the practice.

Despite the cold, the group seems happy to participate. According to Phillips, they come for the social aspect of it but gain a lot more.

“Students who take part are given a certificate of participation, but the principle benefits are leadership and discipline.” Phillips said.

The experience they gain from the drills will benefit them when they enter the work force, adds Phillips.

Although the students that are a part of the club are paramedic students, the club is open to any Centennial College student who is interested.

W e all communicate in different ways, whether it’s face-to-face, behind a computer screen, a

written letter, or even non-verbal body language. For journalism student Alexandra Gater, photography is how she communicates best.

This summer, Gater and a friend traveled to Europe for three months, visiting 11 countries and 30 cities along the way. Her photographs are on display at the Story Arts Centre’s Corridor Gallery.

“I decided I wanted to capture a series of portraits from people all over Europe,” Gater said. “And how we kind of experience the same things on a day-to-day basis, and yet we’re kind of so different as people.”

Gater’s love for photography started in

high school, where she spent a lot of time developing photos in the dark room. Her trip to Europe solidified her dreams of becoming a photojournalist. She hopes to focus on documentary style photography, and help uncover stories that are left untold.

“I felt like when I went away I really realized that when I’m home, I’m stuck in this bubble,” Gater said. “When we traveled, for the first time we realized that there’s so much else to the world. There are so many different things going on that we’re unaware of.”

David McClyment, Fine Arts program coordinator, helped arrange Gater’s exhibit. McClyment says her personality is reflected in her impressive photos.

“They are like her. They are very disarming in a way. When you look at them, they don’t slam you over the head,” McClyment said. “They sort of reveal themselves slowly to you.”

Gater reminisced about a train ride she shared this summer with a woman who didn’t speak the same language as her. Gater felt like an outsider, but by taking the woman’s photo, the wall between the two started to break down.

“So we had this silent conversation through photography. I feel like I know her somehow because a portrait is such an intimate thing,” Gater said. “I felt like I connected with people in these countries where I felt so different in. Photography was a way for me to feel like everyone else.”

“Pavement Vacation,” Rome Italy. Gater was inspired by the light of Rome. She noticed this palm tree’s dramatic effect on the street and how people seemed to walk by without noticing.

1: “The Skater Boys,” Barcelona, Spain. Gater found these skaters outside the train station and after some difficult communication, they agreed to have their picture taken.

2: “The Old Woman” Brussels Belgium. Gater met her on a train through Belgium. She was nervous, but the woman smiled when she saw the camera.

C rossFit is a fitness program designed for a very functional way of life. It includes a combination of various strength exercises, gymnastics and an endurance focused workout.

The program is designed for universal scalability regardless of experience. It is definitely for anyone and everyone.

Benefits and key points of CrossFit

Community - Participating in CrossFit means you are a part of a growing, supportive, fantastically energetic community. It is like being a part of a sports team and competitive fan club all in one. CrossFit participants connect from gym to gym, city to city, through online forums and even international events.

Coaching – CrossFit programming gives you coached workouts. You have continuous guidance through every movement. Coaches spend a lot of time designing periodized programs with great thought for planned participant improvements.

Performance - CrossFit helps with building performance abilities at all levels whether you are recreational gym goer, weekend warrior, police officer, MMA fighter or a professional athlete. CrossFit does this

by improving higher endurance levels, building strength and muscle and enhancing fat loss.

Variations – CrossFit is ever evolving and its participants are too. The point to the variety of combinations of exercises is to have every participant ready for any situation in CrossFit, any playing field and in life!

Intensity - This is not your average “3 sets of 10 bench press and bicep curls and continue” type workout. This is a high intensity style of training that helps you by regularly pushing you out of your comfort zone. Do not be afraid though, this can be scaled to every individual.

WOD - CrossFit workout of the day

This is the CrossFit-conditioning workout where all types of large movements such as calisthenics, plyometrics, running, rowing and even gymnastics and Olympic Weightlifting are used in circuit type workouts. These workouts can be competitive and are completed against a time limit. In CrossFit you train to compete in standardized WODs that are seen locally and even worldwide. The CrossFit community has several well-known benchmark workouts named after women. These include Fran, Diane, Helen, Nancy… ask the next CrossFitter you meet how

their last Grace workout went. Guaranteed good story.At the CCSAI Athletic and Wellness Centre we have begun to build

a base for CrossFit enthusiasts and competitors. Two of our facility’s home grown WODs have been named for the strong women who help us grow. ‘Donna’ and ‘Penny’ workouts are posted next to our popular AWC challenge board and are open for trials to all. The challenger with the fastest completed time for these two ladies will have their name and picture posted to go down in Centennial history as top fitness competitors.

Have You Heard of

CROSSFIT?

By: Fareed Bandukwala

If you are looking for a new and exciting fitnress challenge, you should take a chance on CrossFit. With a growing online community for support and the support of AWC trainers like Fareed, the transition and learning curve should be easy.

We are developing a team at the moment preparing to compete in future CrossFit

competitions and are always looking to expand. If you are interested or know anyone who is

please contact our CrossFit specialist and team coach

He Shoots He Scores Capturing Our Best If you have ever

been to a Centennial College athletic event, you have probably seen Paul Martin, Athletics and Recreation’s communications officer, snapping pictures.

H e captures the right moment at just the right time. Each frame he shoots instantly shows the essence of the

moment. His photos have a remarkable ability to tell the story of the game.

Meet Paul Martin, sports information officer at Centennial Athletics & Recreation. Martin photographs all of Centennial’s sports teams throughout the year, at live games, both at home and on the road.

For Martin, capturing a special moment in the game comes down to timing and positioning

“You always believe that great play is going to happen, so you position yourself to take the snap,” Martin said.

“Something usually happens at the start of the quarter or end of the quarter, or start of the half and end of the half. I’m looking for stuff to happen then.

Photographing athletes during live games comes with challenges. Aside from capturing the players in

motion, Martin has to get as close to the action as possible without getting in the way. Just as difficult, he has to anticipate the moment.

“You’re always thinking…you’re really slowing down the action in your mind. You have to see it in advance,” Martin said.

Martin developed his abilities under the mentorship of well-known comic book illustrator Arvell Jones. He applies the storyboarding and illustration skills he learned under Jones to his photography work.

“I know where the angle spots are, and how to look for action points…all that stuff you learn in comic books,” Martin said.

His photography work has translated to promotional materials, such as life-size posters and game-day programs showcasing the Centennial athletes. Athletes and students love it.

“Everybody wants one. Everybody wants to be on the game-day program.”

Paul Martin follows Centennial athletes wherever they go. Here are a few photos from Men’s and Women’s varsity soccer and basketball.

SHOOT WHAT’S BEAUTIFUL

The easiest type of subject to find, espe-cially when it comes to people. Appreciat-ing aesthetics comes

naturally to us as human beings and this

can apply not just to other people but also

landscapes, or objects. If it’s beautiful, it can be captured as such,

simple as that.

SHOOT WHAT’S INTERESTING

Arguably the broadest category for finding an interesting subject, but

many things are interesting that aren’t beautiful; it’s best not to limit yourself.

Street photography is arguably the most interesting form of photogra-phy, where context (or lack thereof)

enhances the photo. Abstract is another example, where it’s not clear what was

shot, or perception is played with.

SHOOT WHAT’S EVOCATIVEThis is the hardest type of shot to

achieve, most commonly it involves a human element, context is essential, whether it’s shown in the photo or

through a cutline, and it doesn’t hurt if it’s monochrome.

Joking aside, being evocative doesn’t always mean being morose and depressing, they can be exciting

moments in sporting events, and they can be controversial moments in

politics.

SUBJECTPhotography Tutorial

By: Dennis Gonzales

I f lighting and composition are the technical aspects of photography, then finding a good subject is the subjective aspect (for lack of a better term), this is because every photographer is different.

Some are interested in vibrant colour, others in monochrome. Some show harsh realities, others show fluff. Some shoot pretty girls, while others shoot gruff bikers. It’s up to you to find what you like, but I’ve come up with short list of what to look for: beauty, interest and emotion.

1: Emotion - A performer at a poetry show; always great for emotional performances. 1

2: Interest - At city hall while the councillors turned their backs in protest whenever Rob Ford had the floor.

4: Beauty + Emotion - Evocative shots don’t always have to be sad or serious, they can be all emotions.

3: Beauty + Interest - Taken at the Niagara Safari, which is an outdoor zoo, but oddly enough there are a ton metal ‘sculptures’ strewn about the location.

5: Beauty - Taken on the set of an indie film. The light on the subject’s face is coming from the sun reflecting on the asphalt, while the subject herself is in shade.

Number crunching puzzles

Cancer: Jun 22-Jul 23Feel like nothing can go right today? Take heart and do your best to get through with a sense of humour. Tomorrow will be better.

Leo: Jul 24-Aug 23Stressing out? Keep the big picture in mind as best you can. Remind yourself that things can always be rescheduled.

Virgo: Aug 24-Sept 22Do something fun by yourself. This time of year can get hectic and you can fall to second priority. Take the time to enjoy yourself too.

Libra: Sept 23-Oct 22Money can be scary this time of year. There’s no need to it impact your relationships with friends and family. Ask for help if you feel you need it.

Scorpio: Oct 23-Nov 22Take the time to indulge without being overcome with guilt. You’ve worked hard this year and you deserve a chance to splurge.

Sagittarius: Nov 23-Dec 20Don’t be sidetracked by distractions. Many people will be pulling you in all directions, but try to remember what your priorities are.

Capricorn: Dec 21-Jan 20You may feel your place is looking a bit shabby. Take this opportunity to spice up your living space a bit. ‘Tis the season.

EASY MEDIUM HARD

HoroscopeAquarius: Jan 21-Feb 19

Pisces: Feb 20-Mar 20

Be ready for the unexpected. Almost anything can happen this time of year and it doesn’t have to be bad. A pleasant surprise could come your way.

Someone you depend on might not be as sup-portive as you want. Don’t be discouraged, you might find you can do it on your own.

Gemini: May 21-Jun 21Your finances aren’t looking very good right now. Don’t worry, it might be more productive to calmly find a way to right the ship.

Horoscope

Aries: Mar 21-Apr 19Your significant other could be sending you mixed signals lately. This might be an opportunity to examine how you really feel.

Taurus: Apr 20-May 20Don’t let your emotions cloud your intuition. Your inuition is at its best when you use your inteliigence instead of just reacting.
