Lena Chapin Staff Reporter
It’s election time again and the nominations are out. The candidates for the 2008 election are Madonna, Beastie Boys, The Dave Clark 5, Leonard Cohen, Afrika Bamnaata, John Mellencamp, The Ventures, Donna Summer and Chic. Of course that isn’t the presidential elections, though it would be cool to have Madonna as our nation’s leader, these are the nominees for the 2008 formal induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. In 1983 some of the musical industry leaders got together and formed the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation. According to rockhall.com, once a year, they honor artists, bands and individuals who have impacted “the evolution,

Leonard Cohen is a Canadian singer-songwriter, poet and novelist. Cohen’s songs and poetry have influenced many other singer-songwriters, and more than a thousand renditions of his work have been recorded. A song of Cohen’s you might recognize is “Hallelujah” covered by Jeff Buckley, Rufus Wainwright and more than 35 others. Chic is a four time nominee for the Rock Hall and an American disco/funk band that began in 1976. They are best known for their commercially successful disco songs like “Dance Dance Dance,” “Le Freak” and “Good Times.” Afrika Bambaataa was an instrumental influence in the early development of hip hop throughout the 1970s.

Rachel Szuch Arts & Life Editor The Farrelly Brothers, creators of the 1998 hit “Something About Mary,” have teamed up with funny man Ben Stiller again to bring us another raunchy comedy. “The Heartbreak Kid” stars Stiller as Eddie Cantrow, a bachelor in his mid-forty’s who has a serious commit- ment issue. Eddie is initially rather content with his single-status until, by a chance encounter, he meets a blond vixen named Lila (Malin Aker- man). Lila seems absolutely perfect–that is if looks are all that matter to you. Eddie and Lila fall head over heels for each other after just a few weeks.

See you in two weeks. 17 The Carroll News Editorialwww.wjcu.org/cn October 11, 2007 Editorial Event cancellations John Carroll University’s Student Union Programming Board is normally the brain power behind on-campus events and activi- ties. A major goal of the group is to produce as many successful and entertaining events as possible and involve the student body. However, this year the committee will host one fewer event. The annual Oktoberfest, which was to take place on Oct. 5, was cancelled. Oktoberfest is an event that allows clubs and or- ganizations to raise funds by selling food and holding activities and games. SUPB claims that the event was withdrawn from the yearly list of events because many organizations lacked time and resources. We believe though that SUPB should attempt to implement as many activities as possible and strive to make events possible, regardless of the situation. The group is a programming board and the essence of the committee is to host and execute events for the student body. Although SUPB claims that organizations did not have the time or resources, there are alternatives for having the event. Oktober- fest could have been rescheduled for another weekend. Also, planning for Oktoberfest can begin much earlier in the year so that when it comes time to have the event, the majority of the planning and logistics can be easily executed. SUPB also claimed that the event was cancelled due to a lack of student participation in years past. However, with better advertising and larger incentives to participate, the event can be profitable for all the participating organizations. NOTABLE QUOTABLE The reasons given by SUPB do not justify the cancellation of an annual event that is part of the University’s tradition. SUPB should do their very best to make sure that events and activities are successfully planned and enjoyed by the student body. If an event is effectively planned, students are more apt to participate. “I think she’s maintaining her mark in the ” Editorial industry, showing there’s a greater come- Online SU voting back to come.
