The LBSU women’s volleyball team looks to rebound after a down season.
Review:Interpol is back to its roots with a
new album. Day one of the USU 24-hour study center off to a slow start.
University Police Lt. Richard Goodwin confirmed that an investiga-tion is ongoing regarding the theft of two computers and damages to a glass door at the Union Weekly office at the University Student Union.
Police responded to a break-in at the Union Weekly office at 8:43 a.m. on Monday, said Goodwin. He es-timated the value of the computers
and damage to the door was roughly $3,770.
Assistant Director of Programs at Cal State Long Beach Sylvana Cicero said that the glass door is currently be-ing replaced by a red plywood board until a replacement is complete.
“This is an unfortunate situation,” Cicero said via email. “However, the Long Beach Union [Weekly] stu-
dents have continued to move for-ward and work on their next issue in the office.”
In the aftermath of this break-in, Cicero said that the USU is looking for any other security vulnerabilities.
“The USU facility team is monitor-ing the area and security cameras may be added to ensure safety and theft protection,” Cicero said via email.

There’s a new app coming to campus created with the musically indul-gent in mind. Under the moniker title Operation Carmen, CSULB students will have access to an on-
demand music app developed by M&M Media, Inc. that introduces the uncharted waters of free, legal downloads.
Armed with sign-up sheets and free handouts, Corey Jones, Chief of Product, will be outside of the bookstore on September 29th marketing a new product that integrates social media and music dis-covery with virtual currency.
Cal State Long Beach is one of five campuses chosen statewide to pilot Operation Carmen. The app will be launched September 30th and submit-ted to iTunes later in the month.
Simply by interacting with the app, users will re-ceive coins in real time that can be used to purchase songs for their own library.
“If you come across a song you like, there are only so many things you can do to listen to it,” ex-plained Jones, “We’re kind of entering the space where we think there’s a middle ground.”
Current popular music apps like Pandora, Spo-tify and Beats Music allow users to stream songs by their favorite artists. Operation Carmen looks to
go beyond streaming by introducing the age of free, legal downloads.
M&M Media, Inc. is an LA-based, digital music start-up created by CEO Gary Mekikian. In 2005, Mekikian worked on a digital music model that brought music to listeners while supporting artists and copyright holders, but it wasn’t until 2012 that the patent was approved, according to Freecarmen.com.
Mekikian then teamed with the Universal Music Group, Sony Music and Barry Hankerson, record producer, talent manager and now M&M Media, Inc.’s Head of Content and Promotion, to develop a decently sized catalogue of eight to nine million tracks to back the app.
“The music industry is kind of like the wild west right now,” said Jones, “[Major labels] lost all their supplier power [to iTunes] and couldn’t dictate the terms of some of their music. We’re sort of in this phase now where they’re looking for solutions.”
Revenue of the Recording Industry Association of America was at its all time high in 1999, rak-ing in $14.6 billion, according to the Los Angeles Times. The industry changed after streaming-ser-vices like Napster took over. This shift marked the beginning of pirating illegal files.
ITunes offered a quick fix to pirating by offer-
ing 99-cent single tracks in 2001. It wasn’t until re-cently that revenue flat-lined to a consistent $7 bil-lion from last year since 2009 with streaming and subscription based models emerging in popularity, proving themselves to be important contributors to the industry, according to the Los Angeles Times.
“The industry was looking for a new solution to pirating. ITunes was that solution but [it] became such a dominant supplier that the labels lost all of their leverage,” Jones claimed.
Operation Carmen sets itself apart from the cur-rent collection of music apps through the concept of virtual currency. There are three routes for collect-ing coins: using the app, checking in at local busi-nesses (similar to Foursquare) partnered with M&M Media, Inc. or purchasing a set amount of coins.
Although Operation Carmen is still in its stages of infancy, the app will function as yet another so-cial media outlet to message, share and discover new music with friends and connect to listeners with similar tastes. Some aesthetic add-ins include assorted color schemes inspired by album art and an interactive turntable.
“What we’re going to be testing during the pi-lot [will be] different ad loads, how many coins people are willing to spend [per song] essentially,” explained Jones.
Cal State Long Beach will be one of five campuses to launch Operation Carmen.

August 25 was not only the first day of the Cal State Long Beach 2014 Fall semester, but
it also marked the opening of the 24-hour study room in the University Student Union. I went to watch.
When I arrived at the West Wing of the USU at 11:00 p.m., there was not too much going on. There was one gentleman sitting at a desk out-side the room studying, and three more students inside. As the student worked, the custodian came though with the vacuum, which was the only sound in the whole building.
As I sat and observed, three peo-ple swept in. Two were members of the Associated Student Inc.; USU Building Operations Manager Pa-mela Lewis was the third. Lewis is the supervisor of the 24-hour study room.
She quickly set up the ASI stu-dents with a device hooked up to a computer to swipe ID’s and gave them a run down of what was on their screen. I did hear her say, “here is inside room 201, here’s the wait-ing room, and here’s the hallway,” which leads me to believe that there have been security systems set up inside the West Wing for increased security.
Once the 24-hour study room opens, anyone inside the building must come check in at the front. People working inside, who are not current students, such as alumni or guests collaborating on projects,
are not allowed inside. I observed this first-hand when two of the three students studying, who were alum-ni, were asked to leave. I was also asked to leave eventually because I was with a student who did not go to CSULB.
The two students who run the front desk are on duty from 11:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. Without a doubt, the 24-hour study room is a great new tool for students who live on or around campus. It is a problem for commuters who take the freeway be-cause the entrance to the 22 freeway is closed.
Though there were not many stu-dents using the room last night – on average, three at a time – I think that during midterms this room will be packed. With only 12 chairs around one large table, it could get crowded quickly. It seems as though it would be more beneficial to have multiple small desks around the perimeter of the room with partitions.
One excellent feature of the 24-hour study area is two phone charg-ing stations located in the lobby. They are equipped with cords for multiple generations of Iphones and androids.
The 24-hour study area was made possible by the Associated Students Inc. who approved a student fee in-crease of $16 last February. This fee along with a 3.5 percent increase of student enrollment covers the cost of the 24-hour study room. Hopefully, the room will be a success and be-come a permanent part of the USU.
I was one of only a handful of students in the new study area.

Clarification:In Monday’s edition of the Daily
49er, the headline “ASI introduces $165 fee increase” inaccurately im-plied that the ASI fee might increase to $225 per semester. In fact, Associ-ated Students Inc. Communications Manager Lindsay San Miguel has clarified that the additional $165 fee for students would be considered a University Student Union fee. The current USU fee is $179 per semester. This fee would not be implemented for another four or five years, at which point the renovated sections of the USU will be open.

INTERPOL PAINTS NEW MUSIC
Hiatuses are always an emotional ride for music fans, the return of a
band like Interpol should have fans on edge.
It has been a long four years since Interpol’s self-titled album. Band members of Interpol have been busy with other side projects during their hiatus.
Lead singer Paul Banks was per-forming as Julian Plenti and released two albums.
Drummer Sam Fogarino formed a group with touring members of Inter-pol called EmptyMansions.
Carlos Dengler departed the band at the beginning of the hiatus and will no longer be present as a bassists on their latest release.
When a band leaves without a set day to return one can’t help but wonder if they will still have the same spark once they return.
Interpol’s fifth studio album “El
Pintor” scheduled to be released on September 9 not only has same spark fans have grown to love but also offers slight exploration for the band.
The album title itself is an anagram of their band name and means “the painter” in Spanish.
It is unclear whether the stories in the album reflect Banks personal experi-ences or a fictional “painter” who is lost in love. Either way the album name and cover art is sleek and appealing.
The album commences with “All The Range Back Home.” Banks smoothing muffled voice makes it hard to understand the lyrics and re-quires close inspection.
Emotional lyrics start the album “When she wept / A love come over my head / All the feelings / And she wept / Hold me again.” The words are slurred and a bit depressing.
Banks voice is distinct because it is somewhat monotone, but the range in
his unique vocals shifts immediately once percussion of the song kicks in.
“El Pintor” showcases an Interpol fans have grown to love, but offers a slight hint of change.
“Same Town, New Story,” The song delivers syncopated guitar riffs that are somewhat funky, which is a bit strange at first, but Banks vocals make for a familiar comfortable tune.
Banks then frustratingly sings lyr-ics, “It feels like the whole world is up on my shoulders / Feels like the whole world is coming down on me,” which is followed by disorienting music that seems to personify the passage of time.
To further compliment the mesmer-izing slow mood of the track chorus hauntingly repeats, “Enter so slowly.”
The release also echoes to their de-but album “Turn on the Bright Lights” and their second release “Antics” which are often referred to as their best albums with new tracks like “My Desire,” “Everything Is Wrong,” “My Blue Supreme” and “Ancient Ways.”
The bands latest effort shows that some of the best pieces of art take some time to make and that you don’t necessarily need a paintbrush to make a piece of art that is satisfying.

The band returns after a four-year hiatus.
As the deep blue of the midday sky gave way to dusk, the grass was covered by blankets and reggae fans, the air was thickened by the fragrance of reggae music and the Queen Mary was the majestic back-drop to it all.
These are the images that permeated last year’s Shoreline Jam reggae festival at the Queen Mary Wa-terfront Events Park. This year, the event is stretched across the Saturday and Sunday of Labor Day week-end.
Pepper and The Dirty Heads will headline the 4th annual Shoreline Jam festival set to take place on Aug. 30 – 31.
Other groups headlining the event include J Boog, one of the opening artists for last year’s festival. Big performances include Collie Buddz, The Grouch & Eligh, and Brewfish.
The Funk Fest will take place on Monday, Sep. 1, inviting Long Beach locals down to the harbor for their Labor Day off work.
The festival does not only celebrate funky music, but also live art, dance and a zone just for kids.
Three stages will be erected at the Queen Mary Waterfront Events Park to feature Funk artists in-cluding Delta Nove, Karl Denson’s Tiny Universe and Katdelic.
Both events are all-ages. Passes are sold for one-day at either the Shoreline Jam or the Funk Fest, two-day for the Shoreline Jam or three-day for both festi-vals. VIP passes are also available.

North Korea commits crimes against humanity upon its citizens, which simply assault the conscience, and China acts as an accomplice. Despite the deplorable living conditions and human rights abuses in North Korea, China’s longstanding policy has been to deport citizens of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) who illegally cross the border; upon repatriation, refugees invariably face torture and the possibility of death.
China’s morally depraved policy is outlined in a new document by the UN: the 2014 report of the Commission of Inquiry on Human Rights in the DPRK (North Korea) indicates that when refugees are repatriated by China back to North Korea, officials “systematically subject them to persecution, torture, prolonged arbitrary detention and, in some cases, sexual violence, including during invasive body searches. Repatriated women who are pregnant are regularly subjected to forced abortions, and babies born to repatriated women are often killed.”
One cannot help but shutter at the similarities between North Korea’s prison camps and the concentration camps of the Holocaust; Human Rights Watch reports that over 200,000 North Koreans, including children, are imprisoned in camps where many
perish from forced labor, inadequate food and abuse by guards. In the DPRK, there is no independent media, religious freedom or freedom of travel. The majority of citizens are prohibited for traveling outside their city, let alone the country itself. Ludicrous economic policies based on Juche (self-reliance) have persistently subjected North Koreans to famine and malnutrition. Arbitrary arrest, lack of due process, and torture are insidious and widespread. The state completely denies its citizens the right to freedom of thought, expression, association, and the ability to access information.
According to the 2012 report by the Democracy Index, which evaluates
and rates countries based upon their electoral process and pluralism, civil liberties, functioning of government, political participation and political culture, North Korea was ranked 167th and fell in dead last for being the worst human rights abuser and least democratic country in the world.
According to the 2014 report from the UN, the majority of the refugees who are escaping to China are women, including many who are coerced into sexual slavery and pornography. If China repatriates a pregnant woman, North Korea either forces the woman to undertake an abortion, or if the baby is born, the baby is killed; the regime assumes that the father is
Chinese and thus conducts this evil procedure in order to ensure the “purity” of Korea’s citizens.
Despite being a signatory to the International Refugee Convention, China consistently denies refugee status to the fleeing North Koreans, whose only crime is the pursuit of a better life free from the appalling living conditions and human rights abuses committed by the DPRK’s regime. Furthermore, China actively tracks down the North Koreans who hide there, similar to what the Gestapo did to the Jews during the Holocaust, and sends them back to North Korea at night on discreet buses. Although China tries to justify this immigration
policy by claiming that these persons are simply economic migrants, similar to the Mexicans who cross the border into the U.S., this justification is absolutely absurd. Deported Mexicans do not face prison camps, tortures, forced abortions and public executions when they return home. According to Foreign Policy, China has even sent Americans and its own citizens to jail for helping the North Koreans.
Clearly, China has a morally reprehensible policy of aggressively repatriating hungry and freedom-deprived North Koreans. In the words of Michael Kirby, the chairman of the UN sponsored report, China may be “aiding and abetting crimes against humanity” by forcibly sending back North Korean refugees to their native soil and by allowing North Korean security agents to operate within China.
Despite the globally unparalleled human rights abuses committed by the regimes of Kim Il Sung, Kim Jong Il, and now Kim Jong Un, China maintains a rigid policy of sending back North Korean refugees to their repressive country, where they face years of torture and neglect in prison camps, forced abortions and public executions.
China must immediately reverse this policy if it hopes to be respected in the international community.

It has been two consecutive years since the Long Beach State women’s volleyball team advanced to the NCAA postseason, making it head coach Bri-an Gimmillaro’s first time missing out on the tournament back-to-back in his 29-year tenure at the school.
“I believe in our coaching, what we teach and how we teach,” Gimmillaro said. “We have a reputation of having a great program, and we always work hard to be the best we can be.”
The program has five national championships, 12 Big West Confer-ence titles and 26 NCAA tournament appearances, most of which hap-pened under Gimmillaro. His resume and confidence in his coaching staff allow him to look to his 30th year with the program to be one with more success as he returns seven players and eight new recruits.
The Beach wel-comes two inter-national players: freshman Anete Brinke from Latvia and sophomore So-phie Bukovec from Canada, both com-peted against each other with their na-tional team in the 2014 FIVB World Cha mpionsh ips . Both girls have ex-tensive experience on the sand and hardwood.
Bukovec competed in five junior world sand championships and has been on Canada’s national team for two years. Brinke was named one of the MVP’s of the 2014 Latvian Championship and was on the beach
volleyball junior na-tional team in 2010.
LBSU also added Los Alamitos native Lindsey Lawmas-ter, who transferred from Minnesota af-ter contributing as the Gophers’ libero over the last two years.
Freshman Ashley Murray of Bishop Montgomery High School will be ex-
pected to immediately contribute on the court with Gimmillaro looking to play her in the middle. Murray helped her team reach the second round of the CIF-Southern Section playoffs and was an All-League selection as a freshman and sophomore.
The team will also return four se-niors, including All-Region Chisom Okpala to help aid the incoming re-cruiting class.
“We have a very solid senior class, so that’s helpful,” Gimmillaro said. “We have a lot of young players, but also a lot of experience.”
The team is putting in a hefty amount of time and work and is eager to have a winning season. And the mutual respect between the players and coaching staff will play a hand in reaching the 49ers’ ultimate goal: the national championships.
“The team is progressing because of their work ethic and determina-tion,” Gimmillaro told the athletics department. “Their desire to contin-ue getting better is obvious and we are taking the steps to continue on that path.”
Head coach starts his 30th season with high hopes for improvement
