On Movies‘Chappie’

by Alex NelsonStaff Writer

If you had a robot that had con-sciousness, what would you dowith it? Teach it poetry and art, ormake it help you commit crimes?

“Chappie” stars SharltoCopley, Dev Patel, Yolandi Visser,Watkins Tudor Jones, Jose PabloCantillo, Hugh Jackman andSigourney Weaver. It is directedby Neill Blomkamp and is rated“R” for strong language, violenceand brief nudity.

In Johannesburg, South Africa,crime is at an all-time high. Tosolve this problem, the weaponscompany, Tetravaal, led by

Michelle Bradley (Weaver) andher engineers, Deon Wilson (Patel)and Vincent Moore (Jackman),issue special robots that are builtto fight crime. Deon is also work-ing on an A.I program that dealswith consciousness, and plans totest this on one of the robots.However, things become compli-cated as he is kidnapped by gang-sters Ninja (Jones), Yolandi(Visser) and Amerika (Cantillo).

Deon manages to convincethem to let him test the A.I. and, inthe process, Chappie (Copley) isborn. Chappie is confused abouthis surroundings and what he is,but he soon becomes friends withthese four humans who teach himthe best they can about the worldhe lives in. However, there arethose who wish to destroy

Chappie as they see him as athreat to his plans. Now Chappiehas to find out who he is while try-ing to help his new family at thesame time.

Blomkamp, who is known forhis work in “District 9,” returns togive us “Chappie.” I should statethat the acting from the cast wasdone very well, especially fromSharlto Copley as the title charac-ter.

One of the themes that the filmexplores is, “What is the level ofconsciousness?” We see howChappie learns from the differentpeople he meets and in the processlearns a variety of good and badhabits. Several of the film’s ele-ments reminded me of the 80’smovies such as “ET” and “ShortCircuit,” where a non-human

being befriended a group of peo-ple. There is even a callback to thefilm series “Robocop,” with thepolice robots and such.

Despite having plot elementsthat bring a childlike presence intothe film, it is not a movie for chil-dren as there is a lot of swearingand even violent scenes are pres-ent. Some viewers may have asense of mood whiplash, as thereis a mixture of calm, funnymoments and violent actionscenes. I had no problem with this,yet there are a few people whomight have an issue with it.

I should also mention thatsome of the trailers are mislead-ing, making it feel as if the robotsare going to take over the worldand Chappie has to save us. This isnot the case, but the movie is still

fun to watch. One aspect I enjoyedin it which is similar to “District 9”is that one of the main charactersis a non-human and the mainantagonist is human. Most moviesI have seen show that the humansare always good and there isalways an evil alien or evil robot.This film shows us the oppositewhere “Chappie,” the robot, ispractically a child who is trying tounderstand his surroundings andthe main antagonist is a humanwho doesn’t care about who heharms as long as he gets what hewants.

Overall, while the movie is notas good as Blomkamp’s “District9,” I still find “Chappie” just asenjoyable to watch. I personallyrate “Chappie” 4 out of 5 Beavers.

Dangers of prescription drug abuse in college students By Jennifer Chevalier

MSU senior Nursing studentCollege is a time for self-discov-

ery and independence, but also atime for immense stress and danger-ous experimentation. It is no secretthat prescription drug abuse hasbecome a national issue with nearly20 percent of the population report-ing abuse of prescription drugs.Furthermore, prescription drugsand over-the-counter drugs are themost commonly abused substanceafter marijuana for individuals overthe age of 14 in the United States.

The problem is also increasing oncollege campuses with 36.8 percentof a recent sample of college stu-dents reporting using prescriptiondrugs for non-medical purposes.The question becomes — why arecollege students abusing prescrip-tion drugs and what can be done toprevent it?

Firstly, one must understandwhat qualifies as abuse. TheNational Institute on Drug Abuse in2014 recognized abuse as drugstaken for reasons, ways, or amountsnot intended by the physician ortaken by any individual to whomthe drug was not prescribed.Brandt, Taverna, and Hallock(2014), confirm that college studentsmost often obtain prescriptiondrugs from friends.

The most commonly abuseddrugs fall into three separate cate-gories: pain relievers, tranquilizersand stimulants. Pain relieversinclude opioid pain medicationsincluding Vicodin and Oxycontin.Tranquilizers include medicationscommonly used to relieve anxietyincluding Valium and Xanax.Finally, stimulants include drugsmost commonly used to treatAttention Deficit HyperactivityDisorder (ADHD) and includeAdderall and Ritalin.

Reasons for using these sub-stances vary depending on the clas-sification of the drug. Pain relieverswere most often used socializingand partying, with 80 percent ofreported users mixing opioids withmarijuana and 76 percent of report-ed users mixing opioids with alco-hol. The most common methods of

ingestion included swallowing andsnorting.

Tranquilizers were most oftenassociated with self-medication ofillness such as anxiety, but alsoassociated to a lesser extent withsocializing and partying, with usersreporting mixing tranquilizers withsubstances such as marijuana andalcohol.

Stimulants, on the other hand,were overwhelmingly used forstudying, but nearly half of users, 46percent, reported mixing the drugswith either marijuana or alcohol.

So why is the abuse of thesedrugs such a big deal? First, all ofthese drugs place the user at highrisk for addiction, especially sincethe users are not under the super-vision of a physician. Specifically,opioids can slow breathing todangerous levels and actuallycause the individual to stop

breathing altogether.Tranquilizers have a similar

affect and can also cause seriouswithdrawal symptoms includingseizures after prolonged use andattempted cessation. Misuse of stim-ulants can lead to irregular heartrhythms and seizures. Furthermore,mixing these drugs with other sub-stances can increase the likelihoodof side effects and complicationsincluding drug overdose and death.

Finally, drug abuse impacts fam-ilies, friends and the community asa whole. The drug abuser damagespersonal relationships and requiresadditional community resources.

What can you do? Firstly, recog-nize the symptoms of prescriptiondrug abuse including: personalitychanges, sudden financial difficul-ties, social withdrawal, poor workperformance and poor physicalhealth. If you believe someone is

abusing drugs, get them help bycontacting the National Council onAlcoholism and Drug Dependencefor resources in your area.

Finally, do not contribute to theproblem. Never share prescriptiondrugs with anyone, even familymembers, and participate inNational Drug Take Back Days thatoccur annually for safe disposal ofprescription drugs.

Still, not everyone falls victim tothe perils of prescription drugs. Themost common reason for not utiliz-ing prescription drugs is lack ofinterest, followed by risk to physicalhealth and risk to mental health.

It is important to understand theproblem and the solutions are notsimple; however, by recognizinghow to spot potential misuse andthe dangers of prescription drugabuse, college students can empow-er themselves and prevent becom-

ing a victim. References:Brandt, S. A., Taverna, E. C., &

Kurt MillerSports Writer

Late inning heroics were thestory of the day as the MinotState University baseball teambegan Northern SunIntercollegiate Conference playSaturday, March 21, againstWayne State.

The Beavers fell in the firstgame of the day, 4-1, on a walk-off home run, but rebounded inthe second game as freshmanJared Young (UTL/P) hit atwo-run double in the ninthinning, breaking the deadlockand ultimately giving theBeavers a 6-4 win.

In the first game of the day,both teams struggled to gettheir bats going as they com-bined for just 11 hits.

Senior pitcher Josh Larsengave the Beavers a strong out-ing on the mound, going 5 2/3innings and giving up just oneunearned run. Young led theway offensively in the firstgame going 2-for-4.

While the Beavers recordedsix hits in the second game of

the day, the same amount asthey recorded in the first game,the team was more efficient,scoring six runs.

Austin Zorn (Sr., P/INF)threw a complete game, givingup three earned runs on eighthits, while striking out two onhis way to his second win ofthe season.

After going down 2-1through three innings, MinotState took its first lead of thegame, scoring three runs in thefifth.

Wayne State got two runsback in the bottom of the sixthsetting up the dramatic finishin the ninth inning.

Kyle Williamson (Fr., OF)went 2-for-3 from the lead-offspot for the Beavers, with twodoubles and two runs scored.Young's two RBIs in the sev-enth inning were the most onthe team.

With those results, theBeavers moved to 4-9 overalland 1-1 in the NSIC.

Minot State was unable tocome away with a win in two

games Sunday afternoon.Defense played a big part in

the losses on Sunday. TheBeavers committed four errorsin the first game as they fell tothe Wildcats, 10-4. They com-mitted three errors in the sec-ond game, a 14-2 loss.

“We have to play betterdefense,” Minot State headcoach Brock Weppler said.

Jesse Goertzen (Jr., P/INF)got the start for the Beavers inthe first game Sunday and wasonly able to make it through 32/3 innings. He finished hisouting giving up five runs,none of the runs earned.

The Beavers jumped out to a2-0 lead in the second inning,but their only lead of the gamewas short lived. The Wildcatsscored three runs of their ownin the bottom half of the inning,and went on to score sevenmore runs before the Beaversadded two runs in the sixthinning, when the game wasalready out of reach.

Her time of 56.99 seconds satjust outside the top 8 needed toqualify for Saturday’s finals, butwas a solid race against the nation’sbest.

“Sienna did a super job,” MSUhead coach Stu Melby said. “Shewent out and gave her all. She has alot to be proud of. She representedthe team, Minot State and all of hersupporters well.”

Dailey, who finished third in herheat, said there were some nervesconsidering who she was racing,but used that to help her push for-ward for a solid run in her firstNCAA DII nationals.

“It was more insane than I couldhave imagined,” she said. “You seethe names on the lists, but whenyou see them standing right next toyou about to run the same race,that’s really something else. It wassuper intimidating, but in a goodway. The whole atmosphere wasjust incredible.”

The Beavers begin the outdoorseason Saturday at Black Hills StateSpring Invite.

tract of head wresting coach RobinErsland for the 2015-16 season.

The announcement endsErsland’s five-year run at MSUwhere he was the only wrestlingcoach in the school’s brief time inNCAA Division II. He was 18-49 induals during his five seasons withthe Beavers including a 5-14 mark in2014-15.

“I want to thank Robin for whathe has done bringing the programback and getting Minot State re-established in the wrestling commu-nity,” Rick Hedberg, MSU athleticdirector, said. “It was a difficultprocess not only bringing wrestlingback after a 20-year hiatus, butdoing so in the tough Northern SunIntercollegiate Conference. We feelit is time to move the program in adifferent direction.”

The Beavers hired Ersland in2010 to start the program that hadbeen cut in 1990.

Hedberg indicated a nationalsearch for a new coach will beginimmediately.
