4. c. Sales Increase of a Special Section Since the CNBAM conference of 2006, when I organized a session on Housing Fair events and found out that some schools host multiple fairs, I have been trying to convince the powers that be here at the IDS to add a second fair and printed guide. During the publication planning meeting for the 09-10 school year, the three student managers added their voices to the argument, and we got it scheduled for this year. The Fall Housing & Living Guide, which did not exist in 2008, brought in an additional $17,567. The Housing Fair event, where extra copies of the Housing & Living Guide tab are handed out to attendees, brought in an additional $15,712. The naysayers said that the attendance might be low. We had record attendance. The naysayers worried that it might adversely affect the usual spring semester guide and fair. We reached our combined goal of $39,000 and sold out the booth space for this semester. The naysayers worried that it might adversely affect classified line and classified display revenue. It has actually helped. We had surveyed our housing clients to find out the ideal timing for our housing fair. We found that there were as many clients that wanted it late October/early November as wanted it at our usual time of late January/early February. Our strategy was to send out a combined sales flyer for both guides and both fairs (see wording on attached sales flyers explaining the addition of a second guide and fair). Sell once for both was our philosophy. Our Housing Fair Coordinator, a Travel and Tourism major, still did follow up for the spring fair while the sales reps who handle each housing client followed up on the Housing & Living Guide and did a tag-team effort with the Housing Fair Coordinator if she was having trouble getting a response, a contract or checklist returned, etc. Due to the incremental revenue, and the positive response from advertisers, all concerned have already decided to push for having both in fall as well as spring semesters. The final decision will be at our upcoming publication planning meeting, but I’m confident that we will not pass up this golden opportunity again.

Spring Deadline: Jan. 15, 2010 Spring Publication: Feb. 2, 2010 Spring Housing Fair: Feb. 3, 2010
You asked and we listened While many of our clients were happy the timing of our annual Housing Fair, others asked that it move to earlier in the school year. We decided it would be best to accommodate both preferences and will be hosting a fall and spring semester Housing Fair. With more than half of the IU student population opting for off campus living, you can connect with nearly 24,000 potential tenants through the IDS Housing & Living Guide. The Guide will be distributed within the IDS newspaper the day before the Housing Fair. It will also be handed out to each attendee at the Housing Fair.
FREE Unit Profiles With your display ad you still receive the FREE unit profile in the guide’s Rental Directory. NOTE: Please remember to include the Equal Opportunity unity Housing logo in your ads.

You asked ... and we listened! Many of our housing clients asked that we have our Housing Fair earlier in the year while many of you were happy with the timing at the beginning of second semester. We decided to accommodate both groups. More than 25,000 students and more than 1,900 faculty and staff rent homes off campus. Table reservations for the fair include a table, two chairs and a tablecloth. There is no limit to the amount of tables you can reserve, and reservations are taken on a first come, first served basis. You may start setting up your display at 9 a.m. Tear down will take place from 4 to 5 p.m.

Construction at the Ashton complex continues Oct. 25 between Seventh and Tenth streets. The university began work on a new 803-bed complex at the site of the current Ashton Center last spring.
Construction begins on renovated Ashton dorms BY JAKE WRIGHT flwright@indiana.edu
Students looking for apartment style living but wishing to stay on campus have a new option with the planned completion of the new Ashton Housing Complex on 10th Street. From Nov. 2 to Nov. 15, students can fill out a six-question survey on the Residential Programs and Services Web site. Students who fill out the survey will be put into pool that will allow them to register for the Ashton complex early, said Sarah Ivey Lucas, assistant director for housing assignments. From Nov. 19 to Dec. 1, those who have completed the survey can apply to live in the new Ashton Housing. Ivey Lucas said RPS will be at the Indiana Daily Student Fall 2009 Housing Fair with laptops so students can take the survey there. “The survey and the early registration are open to any IU student,” she said. Upperclassmen who have moved off campus will still have priority over younger students, Ivey Lucas said. Upperclassmen who have remained in the residence halls will have the highest priority though, she said.
RPS expects 2,000 to 3,000 students to take the survey. Students who do not take it will have to wait and apply between Jan. 19 and Feb. 17 to live there. The new housing will be apartment style, but will still be handled like a residence hall, RPS executive director Pat Connor said. The buildings will offer a small number of one- and two-bedroom apartments but the majority of the units will be four bedrooms, Connor said. He said, like the residence halls, students can identify a preferred roommate or be placed randomly. A majority of the complex will be upperclassmen, but depending on the demand for the new housing and the need for housing, some freshmen might be placed there, Connor said. The yearly rate for a four-bedroom apartment is $7,450, a twobedroom $7,950 and a one-bedroom is $8,700, Connor said. Leases will start on Aug. 25 and end May 7, he said, and students will be billed per semester. Students who live there do not have to buy a meal plan. “Students can pay an extra $200 fee for the option to move in on Aug. 15,” Connor said. The new complex will consist of seven different four-story

buildings, each building with 90 to 130 apartments, Connor said. Each building will have elevators, large lounges on the first floor and smaller lounges on each floor, he said. Each individual apartment will contain a washer and dryer, a kitchen and fully furnished bedrooms and living room, Connor said. There will be two aerobic workout rooms. At first the workout rooms will be available only to students living in the complex, he said. But, it’s possible they could open to everyone later. There will also be a food service and an auditorium similar to the ones located in Willkie Quad, he said. The second floor of the main building will be classrooms, which will begin use starting next year, Connor said. Connor said the buildings are on schedule and will be completed and ready for the 2010-11 school year. “I’m foreseeing the rooms will be sold out when sign-ups open,” Connor said.

Sisters, brothers, moms enjoy greek living BY HALEY ADAMS hamadams@indiana.edu
With three meals a day, a house full of girlfriends and a peaceful place to sleep, Kristin Burt said she has it made as a resident of her sorority house, Phi Mu. “No living situation is going to be perfect, but I feel like I have the ideal situation,” Burt said. For most IU students, going away to college means leaving a house of brothers and sisters behind. For members of the greek community, however, college means a new house and a new kind of family. While not every greek organization has a house on campus and not every member lives in a house, Burt said she loves sorority house life. “There are so many different backgrounds in our house,” Burt said. “There’s always something new to learn about someone every day.” Many sororities feature day rooms, where women have their closets, televisions and desks. For
sleeping, there are cold dorms, where the majority of the sisters sleep in Phi Mu. “I personally love the cold dorms,” Burt said. “It’s cold, dark and quiet. It’s so nice to get away from the noise of the house.” For men who go greek, fraternity houses offer many of the same benefits as a sorority, such as prepared meals. However, the living situation can be different. Sean Kelley said men in his house can have their own room, about the size of a dorm room. They can also pair up and share a sleeping room and a day room. Kelley said the best part of living in a fraternity is living with 50 of his best friends, even though it can be difficult to study. “There are a lot of distractions if you’re trying to bunker down and get work done,” Kelley said. “But a lot of guys share classes together, so it’s a great opportunity to talk about classes.” But college students are not the only residents of greek houses. Another important player in greek life is the "house mom," someone

who lives in a house full-time or part-time to oversee the house’s cleanliness, security and the overall lifestyle for its residents. At Kappa Alpha Theta, the house mom is Jan Smith, commonly known as Mama Smith. She was previously a "house mom" at Purdue University, but she now lives in an apartment on the first floor of the sorority. Smith said the best part of her job is simply being with the girls and offering advice. “Some of them I have a very close relationship with, and I keep in touch with the girls,” Smith said. “Last year I had three girls that were seniors here, and they sent me Christmas cards and notes, asking me how I was doing.” While Smith did not live in a sorority house when she went to college, she thinks anyone who has the chance to live in a greek house should take advantage of it. “I feel they can learn a lot. You have a lot of different personalities,” Smith said. “You can bounce off all of this information. I think it’s fulfilling.”

Cooks do their part to help be eco-friendly in the kitchen BY LISA ABRAHAM MCT
You’ve changed all of your light bulbs to those energy-saving twisty kind, you faithfully recycle your newspapers, glass and plastics, and you’ve even installed a low-flow toilet. You may be feeling as green as Kermit the Frog, but there’s one big area that you may have overlooked for conversion: the kitchen. Now is a good time to review some steps cooks can take to develop kitchen habits that are more environmentally friendly. Going green in the kitchen doesn’t mean turning into a vegetarian, said Jackie Newgent, a dietitian, cooking instructor and cookbook author of the newly released “Big Green Cookbook.” Newgent, a Fairlawn, Ohio, native, said she was motivated to write the book after learning more about climate change and the negative way carbon emissions are changing the environment.

Newgent’s advice is to pick just three things to try to change. “Three things that you know are realistic. ... It’s like dieting: if you try to do it all at once, you get overwhelmed,” she said. Don’t get discouraged if you find your old habits are hard to break. “Every little change adds up to a big difference in the long run, even if it is just one change,” Newgent said. * * * Here are some suggestions for greening your cooking and your kitchen. EAT MORE FRUITS AND VEGETABLES, LESS MEAT Newgent suggests eating one meatless meal per week. It requires more energy to produce meat than vegetables and fruits. Cutting meat out of just one meal per week can lead to significant energy savings over a year, she said. If you aren’t prepared to go

meatless more often, you can still increase your veggie intake. Newgent said a simple rule to follow is to make sure that every item you prepare contains at least one fruit or vegetable. Macaroni and cheese, she said, is one dish that is easy to add a vegetable to without altering the dish dramatically. Put lettuce and tomato on a sandwich. Add fruit to your cereal. “It’s easier done than it seems,” she said LIMIT THE TIME THE STOVE/OVEN IS USED Never light the oven or turn on a burner when a small appliance will do the job. Microwave ovens, toaster ovens, electric griddles, panini makers and, yes, even a slow cooker all consume less energy than a traditional gas or electric stove. Consistently using these small appliances can make a huge SEE GREEN, PAGE 16

Healthy foods that won’t break the bank BY SARAH HUTCHINS sarhutch@indiana.edu
The dreaded “freshman 15” is a concept well-known to college students. But the perils of the 15lb. weight gain can extend beyond the first year of college. Beating the “15” becomes even harder when forced to eat on a budget, and finding affordable, healthy food on and off campus can be a challenge for even the most health-conscious students. “It’s not hard to eat healthy, but there just aren’t that many options,” junior Erin Duffy said. Duffy, who still lived on campus two years ago, said one of the difficulties of eating on campus is the high cost of healthy options. Salads, wraps and fresh fruit are more expensive than pizza and burgers. However, eating healthy on campus is not impossible. All that is required is some basic knowledge of the dining hall options and a weekly trip to the Residential Program and Services Web site. Nutritional information for many dining locations is listed online and can serve as a guide to
where and what to eat. However, the best – and one of the cheapest – ways to dine is through traditional dining in Read Quad and Collins Center. The menus for the week are posted in advance and have symbols indicating which items are vegetarian, vegan or low-fat. RPS even has a registered dietitian on staff to help students find healthy options. One of the best ways to save money when shopping for groceries off campus is to skim circulars, said IU Health Center dietician Bobbie Saccone. Know what is on sale and stock up on items you eat regularly. Bloomington has an abundance of grocery stores, and knowing which ones have the best sales can help. “Stock up on grains, rice, pasta and potatoes,” Saccone said. “It will end up costing pennies per pound.” Martha Philion, grocery manager of Bloomingfoods on East Third Street, said buying food SEE HEALTHY, PAGE 15

Find your niche in Bloomington BY JOE JASINSKI jpjasins@indiana.edu
How would you describe yourself? Attracted to the dazzling city life? Eager to pop a top while looking out at Memorial Stadium from your front step? Longing to stroll down the brick-covered streets of central campus? Just like its students, Bloomington housing offers an abundance of personalities, each fitting for certain types of students. Here are a few avenues to consider when searching for that ideal neighborhood. NORTHWEST Almost every other Saturday in autumn, you are exposed to the madness of tailgating, the immensity of Big Ten football and those classic Washington Street parties heard from several blocks away. Also found in the area are the notorious Varsity Villas, an energetic community comprising mostly sophomores and juniors, that are
Its residents are mostly fitnessminded, with several football players living there as well, Forchetti said.
“not expensive, but livable,” former Varsity Villas resident John Rosenberger said. He added the area’s residences are diverse, which made for a “quality party atmosphere.” DOWNTOWN Within crawling distance from the bars, restaurants, shops and art studios that give Bloomington its entertainment reputation, apartments and lofts around the city square provide an “urban, contemporary feel,” said Nikki Jenkins, property manager of Olympus Properties. Larger complexes, like Smallwood Plaza and the Olympus-owned Mercury Building, can offer the sentiment of “living in New York,” Jenkins said. Furthermore, many smaller apartments are pure diamonds in the rough – historically rich and unique. COMMUTER NEIGHBORHOODS The geographic expansion of student housing has taken off in re-

cent years, with properties such as The Village at Muller Park, Colonial Crest Townhomes and Apartments, Jackson Heights and Bradford Place being constructed at considerable distances from campus. However, amenities such as
swimming pools, fitness centers, athletic courts and even tanning booths at The Village make these locations feel like one’s “own vacation spot, but in a college town,” Vince Forchetti, a former resident of The Village, said.
New On-Campus Student Housing
SOUTHWEST Embraced by a notably upperclassman and graduate student population, the neighborhood’s edge consists of the expanding Burnham Rentals apartments and moves south to a variety of apartments, like Campus Walk Plantation South’s townhouses and houses. Within a couple blocks of both Kirkwood Avenue and the Maurer School of Law, this residential quarter is “close to everything,” Burnham Rentals’ John Burnham said. Not quite as boisterous as other parts of campus, the area is ideal for “more or less, the serious student,” Burnham said.

INSPECTION GUIDE BY CJ LOTZ cjlotz@indiana.edu
After freshman year, 64 percent of students opt to live offcampus, according to IU’s Common Data Set report. John Sacchini, owner and operator of Energy Design Home Inspections, Inc., is an Indiana-licensed home inspector. He said student renters don’t need to worry too much about construction and the structure of a home, but should keep a few essentials in mind. IDS: What details in particular should a new renter look out for? JOHN SACCHINI: The first thing would go back to the contract for rental. I would make sure that the homeowner defines what the homeowner is responsible for and what the renter is responsible for, like maintenance of heating and cooling equipment. If something fails, like a dishwasher, whose responsibili-
ty is it to take care of it? Another thing to look for depends on whether it is occupied or vacant when you visit. When you walk around, see about the owner. See if you notice odor, dog prints or dog scratches around windows and door cracks. There could be a flea infestation problem or animal signs that could affect someone with an animal allergy. They should also make sure that all the bedroom windows are operational by code. They should be able to open up and stay open so that if you had to get out during a fire, the window wouldn’t be hitting you on the head. I would go around and flush the toilets to make sure that they flush. In the sinks and tubs, run just a little bit of water to make sure that they drain. The general overall cleanliness is important, too. The homeowner – has he been maintaining the house? Also, curb appeal.

Questions answered by a housing inspector
When you drive up, is there a bunch of clutter? If I were a renter, I would probably try to find a place that was neat and tidy. It shows that the homeowner cares about the place. If there is a problem, the homeowner will jump to take care of it. IDS: What big problems do students often overlook when renting a home? JS: Utility bills. Find out who is responsible for the utility bills. Is the house well-insulated? Ask if the homeowner can provide the renter an earlier bill, especially in the winter, so that the renter is not stuck with a $300 or $400 heating bill. I would ask if the heating and cooling system has been maintained yearly. IDS: What would the ideal rental house look like?

Home-cooked in college PASTA There are a number of large companies making full lines of whole-grain pastas that bear no resemblance to the old chewy, dark brown whole-wheat pasta.
3-QUART SAUCEPAN WITH A LID You can cook pasta, rice, grains or any vegetable, and cleaning is no problem, unless stuff gets burned.
BROWN RICE You can buy the quick-cooking kind to help yourself save time. A few flavored rice blends that don’t have high amounts of salt or any MSG are good too.
EXTRA-VIRGIN OLIVE OIL It’s important to limit butter and never eat margarine. Use this oil to cook just about everything. You don’t have to buy a really expensive oil. A liter will last a student a full semester.
COOKING SAUCES Most grocers and all natural food stores now carry jars of ethnic cooking sauces that are really good. They come in Indian, Mexican and other varieties that can be added to any protein and simmered for great results.

There are two distinct areas when it comes to how students eat when they are away from home. Young adults either try cooking for themselves, or they go out every night to eat fast food because it is cheap and easy. After all, most of them are on conservative budgets. But truth is, even light cooking will save college students money and allow them to eat more healthy. However, there are reasons college students don’t cook. They often don’t have the equipment they need to prepare easy meals. And they don’t want to bother with clean up, share ingredients with roommates or take time to food shop. Following is a college cooking kit that includes everything students will need to make a home cooked meal, except perishable ingredients.

MOVING IN & MOVING ON
Graduating couples face challenges BY TAYLOR CLOSSIN U-wire
As the housing fair approaches, many students are looking for places to call home next fall. Choosing a residence can mean making a lot of choices one never thought about before. And for many students, deciding whether to live with a significant other can play a large part in the apartment hunting season. Two years ago my boyfriend and I decided to move in together. We were ecstatic about the idea and quickly found a cute and cozy apartment together. Unfortunately, my boyfriend’s parents promptly shattered our naïve game of house with the news that we would not be allowed to live together. Their reason was a valid one: We’d been together for only three months. At the time, I had the stereotypical teenage response. I felt that my boyfriend, being a mature 19 years old, had the right to make his own decisions. I felt that they didn’t understand. We were in love, and we were going to be together forever. Looking back, I know I wasn’t as wise as I thought. I’ve learned of many challenges a couple faces living together, and of many that couples face living apart when they are ready to make the step to domestic harmony. College students in particular can have a tough time. Here are some college-specific reasons both for and against the idea.
Think before you move
PHOTO ILLUSTRATION BY RYAN DORGAN | IDS
REASONS NOT TO LIVE TOGETHER 1. College life is full of new responsibilities, and moving in with a significant other can add a whole new world of concerns to deal with. Getting good grades while remembering to feed yourself and clean up enough to keep mold from taking over your kitchen can be challenging enough. 2. People change during college; it’s part of what is so great about it. Graduates leave wiser and worldlier than when they started. With all the new challenges one faces throughout college, it’s hard for anyone to leave as the same person. And in the end, changing can mean that a match that used to feel perfect isn’t anymore. 3. A college campus is not a welcoming place to break up three months into a live-in relationship. You face the ask of finding an apartment in the middle of year, especially one that won’t land you a lease that ends six
months after you graduate. REASONS TO LIVE TOGETHER 1. If you spend a lot of time with each other, odds are your belongings will end up strewn across two residences. This can be particularly frustrating when trying to study. 2. Money can become a huge issue. Unless you have a meticulous schedule to plan out visits and sleepovers, someone will end up paying more than the other. Showers and snacks can add up. If he’s always turning up the heater and she’s always using all the toilet paper, tension can arise in an otherwise peaceful relationship. 3. Roommates can be another issue. Problems can arise if a roommate isn’t OK with the amount of time your significant other spends at your place. Disagreements may also come from differing opinions on how to deal with a bad roommate.
College is the time when students begin thinking about the rest of their lives. Degrees. Careers. Marriage. Kids. Golden retrievers. White picket fences. And as we BEN PHELPS all face the is a junior majoring nagging quesin journalism. tions of our future, it’s natural for many boyfriends and girlfriends to want to take the next step, which usually means moving in together. I know, because two years ago I was in this spot. Two years ago I couldn’t have been more excited to sign a one-bedroom lease with my girlfriend of more than a year. At the time it seemed like an obvious choice. We had been inseparable since we started dating our senior year of high school. That summer and our freshman year, we essentially lived together. I saw her every day for almost two years. She was my best friend, my roommate, my lover and my safety net whenever I needed someone to catch me. When we moved into our apartment last fall, it was one of the happiest times of my life. But someone once said that all good things must end, and for me they did. I don’t regret my decision to live with her. I regret a lot of things about how we broke up, but not that. And yes, if I knew how it was going to end, I wouldn’t have done it. But that’s the point really: You
never know how it’s going to end until you try. We never talked about what would happen if we broke up. Neither one of us saw that as a possibility. Love is a beautiful and amazing feeling, and when you’re in it, you never think it will end. But it might. Only a fool (like me) would not be prepared for that. You must talk about who will move out, who gets what, what to do with the lease, the posters, the pots and pans and even the four seasons of “The Office.” Don’t wait until it’s too late to sort out all the details. Make sure you are both prepared to handle all the possible outcomes and have a plan in case the unthinkable happens. Fortunately, I was able to move back into the dorms, but don’t leave these things to chance. Talk about it, even if it seems out of the question now. And if you do move in together, my biggest advice is to talk. The biggest failure in my relationship was a lack of communication. Just because you live with someone doesn’t mean you will become closer or get enough time together. Don’t become complacent or stop working at growing your relationship. So if you’re ready, go ahead and take the plunge. You can’t live your entire life in a bubble afraid of getting hurt. And if you think he or she is the one, you owe it to yourself to fi nd out now, not later.

Even with all the perks of living in a greek house on campus, many members of sororities and fraternities choose to live out each year. “I think it was just time for me to live on my own,” said Phil Langenfeld, a fraternity member. Many greek houses on campus have a live-out policy. This means that the chapter requires the member to live in the sorority or fraternity house for two or more years and then allows the member to live outside of the house after those two or more years if desired. While living in the house, members are expected to abide by the house rules. This includes, among other things, no alcohol or drugs, and for sororities, a man-hour policy which restricts men from being in the house during certain times. However, for many members, the benefits of living in the house far outweigh the inconveniences some of the rules might cause. “I like that we get a good breakfast every day, and we don’t have to make any of our meals,” said Emily Watkins, a sorority member. “And we live so close we can just walk everywhere.” Many members see the experience of living in the house as a time to live with a large group of their closest friends.

Phi Mu sorority has two cold dorms, each with about 40 beds, where a majority of girls in the house sleep. Many greek houses include cold dorms - dark, quiet rooms often set at colder temperatures than the rest of the house.
“Living in is one of the reasons our house is so close,” Watkins said. Although living in a sorority or fraternity house provides many benefits, many greek members believe that after two years it is time for a change. Kyle Behringer, a fraternity member, chose to live out because he did not like living in a house with so many people. “I couldn’t stand rooming with two other guys, and I didn’t like having to share a bathroom with that many guys,” he said. “Now everything is individual.” Langenfeld agrees with Behringer and thinks that life outside the fraternity house is “much different.” “Now I have my own bedroom, my own bathroom and my own kitchen,” he said.
Although time spent living outside the fraternity house can be a great opportunity for members to experience life on their own and party without the rules of living in a greek house, some members seem to lose the connection they had with their fraternity or sorority. “We still attend the social events,” Langenfeld said. “But it’s harder to meet the new guys and stay involved.” Watkins said she will not have the option of living out, but even if she did, she believes that many of the members of her chapter would chose to remain living in the house. “The sophomores are just as close with the juniors and the seniors because we all live under one roof,” she said. “We have our whole life to live in an apartment.”

Give your apartment a cheap face-lift BY IVY JACOBSON U-Wire
When the pizza-box coffee table and the reclining chair you got from the side of the road aren’t cutting it in your apartment anymore, maybe it’s time to re-think your pad’s decorating scheme. Decorating cutely and cheaply isn’t hard, and with a little creative thinking, Martha Stewart will be demanding your decorating ideas in no time. Blank walls can always be a problem, especially since posters are usually expensive and tear easily. One would think that large artwork is the answer to the blank wall problem, but a cheaper solution is this: Go to a craft store or a store that sells sheets (Urban Outfitters has a great selection) and pick a large sheet or piece of material that is thick and sturdy with bold, attractive and colorful designs on it. Usually, there is a spot in the store for sheets that are on sale because they don’t have the

comforters or pillow shams to go with them any longer. After you buy one, hang it with a hammer and nails on the wall, preferably behind the couch and the entire wall is covered and decorated with an interesting scheme.
“I went to Urban Outfitters and found a king-size sheet with a really pretty design on it, for around $5 on sale,” Florida State University junior Kali Knowles said. “My roommates and I hung it on one wall in the living room, and it looks really
cool and creative.” Also, if you want actual pictures on the wall, why not paint them yourself? Craft stores sell canvases cheaply, and by painting an image yourself, it adds a certain familiarity and homeyness to your place.
If you are better at photography, take a few shots with your camera, and have them made into larger black and white pictures at drugstores for an inexpensive price. You can even upload your pictures straight from home onto a drugstore’s Web site and pick them up in hours. Putting up pictures of you and your roommates together is also a fun idea. For the fashionistas with too many bags, purses and hats that can’t all fit in the box-sized closet that usually accompanies college apartments, this tip decorates your walls and finds a home for your purses. Get a hammer and box of small nails, or pretty little wall hooks, whatever your prerogative is. Then, spacing the nails about a foot to a foot-and-ahalf away from each other, hammer them in. Then, hang your purses up for easy, cute wall art, and an uncomplicated way to store your bags. You SEE DECORATE, PAGE 15

If you walk in a place and suddenly you feel clogged up, or you go down in the basement and it feels damp and musty, I would not rent that place. Sacchini also offered a tip for those who sign the lease and are also sold at dollar stores, and by picking a few out and setting them on a bar or on a ledge in the kitchen, makes the room look a bit more sophisticated. A few fun cookbooks or drink recipe books placed in the room also lend something to make the place look put-together. “My roommates and I went to discount stores and bought different plates and place mats and kitchenware,” FSU sophomore Katrina Bilella said. “Even though the designs are all different, the colors are generally the same, and it makes the kitchen have a cool vibe. “We hung out pot holders on the wall, adding color. We also got cute tins marked ‘sugar,’ ‘tea’ and ‘coffee’ to keep things in.” There are hundreds of other

GREEN » CONTINUED FROM PAGE 5 difference in your energy consumption, Newgent said. Even though slow cookers are typically on for hours at a time, they will burn less energy than a traditional oven to prepare the same dish, such as a roast. Look for ways to lessen the amount of time the oven and burners are on. When cooking pasta, Newgent recommends using skinny varieties, like angel hair, that will cook more quickly. She also uses a method she dubs “lid cooking” to turn the stove off sooner. Newgent brings a pot of water to a boil, adds her pasta and brings it up to a boil again. But then she turns the heat off, puts a lid on the pot, and lets the pasta finish cooking from the heated water. When baking something, turn the oven off five minutes before the item is done and let the residual heat to finish the job, she said. Consider making one meal each week that doesn’t require using the stove at all, such as a salad. RUN AN ENERGYEFFICIENT KITCHEN While new kitchen appliances may not be in the budget for
many homeowners, most would see an immediate savings on electric bills with the conversion. Appliance repairman Bryan Rambler, who operates Mr. Appliance of Northern Summit County in Akron, Ohio, said newer kitchen appliances use about half the energy of ones made before the mid-1990s. He said proper care of appliances also will keep them running on less energy. Refrigerators should be away from sunlight and heat sources, like ovens. The warmer the environment, the harder the appliance will have to work and the more energy it will use. Refrigerators also need breathing room _ at least two or three inches of open space between the coils and the wall behind them to allow for better air circulation. Keeping refrigerator coils clean of dirt, dust and pet hair also will improve performance. The harder an appliance has to work, the faster it will wear out, Rambler said. Constantly opening and closing the refrigerator causes it to lose cold air. The same goes for the oven _ keep the door closed as much as possible while in use to keep the hot air inside.
Rambler said gas stoves typically are less expensive to run than electric ones. Always have the dishwasher fully loaded before running, and consider scraping your dishes instead of rinsing them before loading, to save on water, Rambler noted. Newgent also said when cooking outdoors, choose a gas grill over charcoal because gas emits less carbon into the atmosphere. EAT SEASONALLY AND BUY LOCALLY When cooking, select fruits and vegetables that are in season and look for local sources for foods. Jeannine Snyder, food chairwoman for today’s Scarlet, Gray and Green Fair at Ohio State University’s Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center in Wooster, said buying local means getting better produce. “It doesn’t travel for 1,500 miles and it’s fresher,” she said. Studies have shown that foods on average travel 1,500 miles to get to our plates. And while the jury is still out on whether buying locally versus trucking foods across country actually saves fossil fuel, there is no argument that
fresher foods are more nutritious. Snyder, who operates Cafe Carmen at the research center, said she tries to purchase from local sources for the restaurant and often serves vegetables grown right at the research center. “The greenhouse program is raising lettuce and tomatoes for us,” she said. While purchasing from local sources and farmers markets may cost a bit more than massproduced foods, Snyder said, she likes knowing her money is going into local hands. “I feel that supporting local business and keeping things close at hand is better than paying someone from California or Argentina,” she said. The Cuyahoga Valley Countryside Conservancy in Peninsula, the local organization that lobbies for local farmers and farmland, advocates eating locally to help local farmers stay in business, and as a way for consumers to become more aware of what they eat and where their food comes from. BE WASTE-CONSCIOUS The terms “reduce, recycle and reuse” apply to food as well as traditional recyclables, Newgent said. Recycling household waste
paper, glass, plastic and metal is a good place to start in the kitchen. But Newgent said food scraps can also be recycled through composting. If you don’t garden to use your own compost, consider saving compostable scraps and donating them to a community garden. For items that can’t be recycled, such as certain plastics, Newgent suggested looking for a way to reuse them. Not all plastic yogurt containers can be recycled, but Newgent said they make great holders for small items like crayons, craft supplies or small pieces from children’s toys and games. A soup can easily becomes a pencil holder. Take steps to stop waste before it gets in the kitchen. Newgent said buying bulk foods eliminates a lot of wasteful packaging. Use dishes instead of paper plates, a rag instead of paper towels and cloth napkins instead of paper ones _ all of which can be washed and reused many times over. Here are some recipes to try that will help you go green in a number of ways: They’re packed with vegetables, use eco-friendly gas grills and slow cookers, or require no cooking at all.

Pets can add both comfort and stress to a college student's life.
The pet question Owning a pet is a huge responsibility. Don’t get me wrong, it can be a fun and rewarding experience. But take my advice: College is not the place to do it unless ELLIS you are ready to LATHAMmake some sacBROWN is a graduate of the rifices. School of Fine Arts. Flash back to sophomore year. I was living in an apartment that didn’t allow pets, but for some reason I thought it would be a great idea to adopt a dog from the Humane Society. Her name is Rosie, and she is an 8-pound Parson-Russell terrier, a breed known for its energy and stubborn disposition. These were the beginning of my problems. Soon, my landlord found out and threatened to evict me. But I found a way around it by letting the dog outside through the back window instead of the front. It worked, but it was unfair to her because of the large amount of time she had to spend indoors. Because of my choice, I risked being evicted and constantly had to hide the fact that I had a yappy little terrier living in my small two-bedroom apartment. After that year, I had to look for apartments that were pet-friendly, limiting my hous-
ing choices and forcing me to settle for living a sizable drive away from campus. Money is also a very important factor in raising a pet. Veterinarian visits, rabies vaccinations, pet food, toys – all of these things are essential, and you must be ready to spend an ample amount of money to keep your pet healthy and happy. All of these sacrifices pale in comparison to the commitment that has to be made with your free time. The ability to be spontaneous is a thing of the past. Forget taking trips that are more than a few hours long because you have to be back in time to take your pet out. Walks are important with high-energy dogs. Not all is negative. You will never find a better friend. I always have someone to share my food with, I never have to clean my plate; my feet are never cold because she likes to lay on them while I take a nap; there is no better running buddy, and she is always there to greet me when I get home. You can’t replace these things, and I would not want to live without her. All and all, it was probably a bad decision, but I am glad I made it. Nothing is more rewarding than giving a shelter dog a second chance.

Kent State 4C – Best Sales Increase of a Special Section The staff was given an objective this year; raise the sales of the Halloween section of the Stater. This section has been declining year after year and was in desperate need of a boost. Challenges: • We maintained the rates for the 2009 year from 2008 • The same advertisers year after year were those in the section • Clients not affiliated with the holiday did not see the value in the section • Our discounts were not enough reason to be in the section • This section usually only contains ads Our Strategy: • Offer a better incentive to clients to be included • Offer free placement to any client whom books the entire back cover ($140 value; 10% savings) • Utilize the section flier as a mass mailing to all clients • Utilize the section flier as a filler display ad • Utilize the section flier as an email blast to all clients • Include more Editorial information The Results: Halloween 2009 vs. 2008 Section Halloween 2009 Halloween 2008
Inches 500.50 350.50
Revenue $4,715.89 $3,366.38
In 2009, we saw an increase of 150” and a total of $1,349.51 more in revenue. This is equivalent to a 40% increase over 2008. Implementation of Strategies: The economy was definitely in line to play a decline of the special section. To combat this, we offered free back cover placement to any client that booked the entire back cover. This would save the client 10% the total cost of the space. This discount secured one of our larger clients to book the space. They had never run in the Halloween section before. The next discount we offered was on color. We usually offer a 20% discount on color; we upped the amount to 40%. This discount led the way to double the clients that bought full color for their ad. Another strategy was to place more emphasis on the informational flier. Usually we use this as an insert to the media kit. This year we stepped back to the old days of mass mailings; it worked. We booked over $850 to clients responding to the mailing. We only spent $23.75 on the mailing. We also replaced common fillers within the paper with the flier. This cost us nothing since we would have a few fillers anyway. We also emailed the flier to all clients, even classified clients. This also cost nothing.
Kent State 4C â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Best Sales Increase of a Special Section Our final plan was to incorporate some editorial. Usually our special sections were advertising supplements only. For this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Halloween section, we hired a student to write a story and take photos of a local pumpkin farm. The student sales staff also contributed content that they had gathered on pumpkin carving. Overall, the section was a success. It was a 6-page stand-alone section. We had great response from readers and clients. Our following special section gained more interest due to the previous success of Halloween.
Best Sales Increase of a Special Section Our sales efforts for the 2009 Year In Review special edition of the paper exceeded the previous year’s sales by 54%. 2008 brought in sales of $8182.34, and 2009 brought in
$15,182.06. As we reviewed the trend of past years for this special issue, we realized that some years never reached anything close to it’s potential and that sales from 2007 to 2008 had dropped for this edition. This edition becomes a collector’s item, and so we refocused our sales efforts and pitches to focus on this fact, and that it would sit in stands up to a week until it was gone, but in the past few years most stands were empty the second and third day it was available. The sales managers decided to put additional commission incentives on reps meeting their Th l d id d t t dditi l i i i ti ti th i personal goals. They also posted a group “CALL SHEET” so that every sales rep had to log the clients they presented the Year in Review edition to, complete with whether they purchased or said no. These kinds of public displays of personal efforts keeps everyone motivated and accountable for contributing to the team effort. The sales team definitely met their sales goals, and were rewarded handsomely for their efforts. They broke a new sales record for this special edition, so each of them in addition to their additional commission also received a certificate of accomplishment listing them as a contributor to the new sales record achieved to add to their portfolio.

This past year, we watched the football team win another national championship. We witnessed a march where thousands rallied for justice in Jena. We were here when a new governor and LSU System president took office. We saw a potential rising football star take a turn for the worse and looked on as Mike VI became acclimated to his new home. For other events from this exciting academic school year, read more inside.
Sales Increase of a Special Section Finals Survival Guide Over the course of a year, The State New offers more than eight different promotions to its clients. One of the more popular promotions is our Finals Survival Guide. This is a tabloid-style publication filled with sudoku puzzles, crosswords, the dot game, and word searches. The normal paper does not publish during this week. This promotion also serves as a chance for advertisers to reach students one last time before they depart for holiday break. Each year, this special section publishes twice, once during fall finals week and once during spring finals week. The increase from fall 2008 to fall 2009 was outstanding. Our account executives were excited, motivated and striving to beat the semester prior.
What was the difference? Close monitoring and team competition. Our office thrives on competition, so what better way to increase revenue then by creating a fun fall themed contest. During the fall 2009 promotion sales were monitored and announced daily to praise individuals for their hard work. This daily announcement helped to create a domino affect of account executives wanting to one up each other. The sales staff was divided into five teams and asked to choose a fall holiday themed team name. Each sale would be recorded on our bulletin board with paper leaves that represented points. The number of leaves posted to the board added up quicker than I could count.
What was the incentive? With the phone glued to their ears and executives running in and out the door to go on sales calls, each person knew what was riding on the line for them. The coveted golden ticket of prizes, the one office hour off pass. This pass would allow each member of the winning team to redeem one office hour off at the time of their choosing, with one-day prior notification to the advertising manager of course. In our office we require a minimum of 15 hours in the office per week, this pass is something the staff definitely wanted to work for.
What was the outcome? The final outcome was impressive, between the drive to beat the previous years revenue and the chance to receive an hour off, the staff showed their determination and now the numbers are able to speak for them selves. Between fall 2008 and fall 2009 there was a $2,070 increase and more impressively 21 advertisers new to the promotion The account executives have set the bar high and know that come next finals survival guide they will be expected to go above and beyond to crush these numbers.

EDITOR’S NOTE
The holiday season can’t wait It is unbelievable to me how fast this year has passed. It seems the holiday season arrives faster each year. Before Halloween, I was driving to work through the River Oaks Shopping Center and saw that snowflakes were already placed up and down the strip. In my opinion, this is ridiculous. What happened to not decorating for Christmas until after Thanksgiving? This holiday issue should be your go-to guide for buying gifts, going out and celebrating this holiday season. We’ve included a handy map with great deals and sales around town for your Black Friday shopping. Our resident gastronomy aficionado Wilson Chang discusses the effects of tryptophan and the lethargy after Thanksgiving. Celebrity make-up artist Edward Sanchez, who created the look behind Janet Jackson’s Super Bowl performance, gives us some make-up tips for creating glam and glitz. I look into the new venture of my longtime hero, fashion designer Tom Ford, as his first motion picture, A Single Man, hits theaters in December. Great thanks are also due to my friend Phil Hudson, for letting us use the Houston Pavilions for our fashion and cover shoot; BCBG and Forever 21 for providing clothes; and Michelle Watson of Last Night Pics for shooting for us. From The Daily Cougar, we wish you a happy winter break and safe holiday season! Happy holidays,
Jarrod Klawinsky

Handy guide for holiday shopping for the day after Thanksgiving
gg
T
he day after Thanksgiving is the busiest time of10 year for retailers.
Shoppers arrive in droves to invade malls and centers, lining up well before dawn to search for great deals . We’ve compiled a list to make your holiday shopping a little less stressful. Memorial City Mall Memorial City Mall will extend its hours during the holiday season to 9 p.m. on most nights and 11 p.m. on the day after Thanksgiving and the weeks leading up to Christmas. The mall will again partner with the Salvation Army to present its annual Angel Tree, giving visitors the chance to brighten the holidays for underprivileged children and seniors. From Nov.13 to Dec. 20, shoppers can select an ornament from the Angel Tree and purchase the gift indicated on the ornament. Bath & Body Works will be offering a VIP bag to customers for $15 with a purchase of $50 or more (the day after Thanksgiving only).

The Galleria If you are an intense shopper and plan to journey out on the busiest shopping day of the year, head over to The Galleria. Most stores located in the supersized mall will be having sales and they have made shopping easier for you. Their Web site has listed some current promotions that you can print out. Apple is offering reservations ahead of time on iPods and Macbooks. One may pick up purchases at the store from Dec.15-24, and many of the products can be wrapped. Highland Village After leaving the Galleria, drive up Westheimer Road to Highland Village, where you can grab a bite to eat at Escalante’s or taste some amazing sushi at Ra, then walk across the street to Kiehl’s. Originally, Kiehl’s was an apothecary located in New York, and eventually spread across the nation. The store is committed to providing not only the best products for your skin, but its approach to customer service is unrivaled — especially the Houston store. Kiehl’s products make great stocking stuffers! Best Buy Best Buy is really a one-stop shop with an easy-to-use online store. Before you drive out, you can check the inventory at your nearest store.

Spice up average holiday parties By Jarrod Klawinsky The Daily Cougar Houston has numerous hidden venues in non-descript locations where any host would kill to hold a holiday party, but of course, problems arise. We at The Daily Cougar have picked out our favorite dives to help the discerning host or hostess with this important choice. Belvedere Lounge, located near the Galleria at Uptown Park, is the epitome of the New York City lounge. It is the place for the ultimate stylish, social butterfly, and would suit that Gossip Girlthemed holiday party you’ve been dying to have. According to its Web site, “Belvedere is a microcosmic expression of its environment – a place to be stylish, to have fun, to do business and to witness and be seen by the upper crust of Houston’s diverse population.” For more information or to book Belvedere for your holiday needs, visit www.belvedereinfo.com. The 2016 Main Street Apartments have been a Downtown landmark for years. On its first floor lies Sammy’s Place, another Houston hotspot. Renowned for live bands such as the Spazmatics and the Skyrockets, this live-music venue is ideal for a change from the monotonous business soireé. Sammy’s can customize anyone’s party needs, and catering is available through El Patio, Beaver’s and Táfia. A VIP area is raised above the floor as well as a more intimate backroom for those who wish to avoid the packed main room. The Spazmatics call Sammy’s their home every Thursday, so make reservations quickly because it is sure to be booked. The Mercer offers more than the typical nightclub atmosphere. Be transported to another world with multi-themed party rooms and a 35-foot cascading water wall. The Mercer boasts ample floor space, four VIP suites, three full bars, and a private room that can accommodate a private disc jockey. Even if the price tag for reserving the Sinatra Suite is out of your budget, they offer free entry before 10:30 p.m. Just remember, the strict dress code. Visit www. mercerhouston.com for more information. Houston’s brunch bunch comes out between October and early December when the weather is ideal, with highs in the lows 70s throughout the day. For the perfect holiday brunch with your closest friends or family, Michelangelo’s proves the perfect place. With an actual tree directly in the center of a house-turnedItalian restaurant, live piano music echoes throughout the restaurant. This wonderful locale has bottomless mimosas, which come in handy when the bill arrives.

The Nutcracker returns to the Wortham By Will Dees Holiday Gift Guide The Houston Ballet’s annual Nutcracker Market is one of the largest fundraising activities
Courtesy of The Houston Ballet
Dancers Walsh and Takeda will give 35 performances of The Nutcracker at the Wortham Center this season.
taken on throughout the ballet’s calendar year. This season the market opened with a luncheon hosted by Saks Fifth Avenue and boasted over 1,200 people in attendance. Flying in for a quick stay was none other than Max Azria himself, the creative director and genius behind the BCBG, Max Azria and Herve Leger labels, putting on a fashion show for the crowd lunching at the Reliant Center. All this was in preparation for the return on The Nutcracker to the Wortham Theater stage. It begins at a 19th century Christmas party in Germany. Dr. Drosselmeyer gives his niece Clara a toy. What unfolds is one of the most famous and well-loved ballets, The Nutcracker. Composed by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, The Nutcracker is a Christmas favorite that returns to the Houston Ballet. First performed in December of 1892, The Nutcracker depicts Clara’s fairy-tale adventures after her brother Fritz breaks the titular nutcracker, which is made to look like a soldier in full uniform. In Act 1, Dr. Drosselmeyer repairs the nutcracker, and at the stroke
of midnight the soldier comes to life and rescues Clara from the wicked King Rat and his soldiers. During the battle, King Rat is killed, and the nutcracker transforms into a handsome prince who takes Clara to the Land of Snow where they are met by dancing snowflakes. In Act 2, the Prince and Clara arrive in the Kingdom of Sweets, where they meet the Sugar Plum Fairy. The fairy and all the sweets perform their various dances for her. Some of the most famous are the Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy, “Trepak,” performed by the Russian dancers (often portrayed as Candy Canes), and the Waltz of the Flowers. At the end of the ballet, Clara wakes up in her bed the next morning, holding her nutcracker. It seems the night’s revelries were a dream, and nothing more. The Nutcracker ballet was never Tchaikovsky’s favorite—he preferred The Sleeping Beauty, which he composed before The Nutcracker. He took eight of the pieces from the ballet and organized them into The Nutcracker Suite, intended for concert performance. The Suite premiered in March 1892, months before the debut of the actual ballet, and became an instant success. The Nutcracker has been showcased in many different contexts: various television productions in the late 1960s, and later
ones in the early 1990s. Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn arranged a jazz version in 1960, which in 1999 accompanied an adaptation by Donald Byrd, which followed an African-American family and a grown-up Clara through the Civil Rights movement in Harlem. Several pieces of The Nutcracker Suite appeared in Walt Disney’s 1940 classical music/animation film Fantasia, with dancing flowers, snowflakes and mushrooms accompanying the music. The Nutcracker ballet began gaining widespread popularity in the mid-1950s. First performed by the Houston Ballet in 1972 at Jones Hall, it has been danced each holiday season for the past 37 years. With the arrival of The Nutcracker, Houston’s holiday season can officially begin. This season, newcomer Joseph Walsh performs the role of the Prince and Hitomi Takeda returns to play the Sugar Plum Fairy. They will give 35 performances at Wortham Theater Center, as the Houston Ballet Company celebrates its 40th anniversary. Sets for the show were designed by Desmond Heeley, choreography was arranged by Ben Stevenson, and lighting by Duane Schuler. Performances begin Nov. 27, and run through Dec. 27.

Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Shakira and other fantastic songstresses will release much-anticipated albums that will please any pop fan. Lady Gaga’s The Fame Monster mixes driving beats and genius lyrics with the burlesque star’s infamous costumes and elaborate videos. Depending on the type of fan on your list, you might invest in the standard version that only features new songs, or the deluxe edition with all of the pop newcomer’s fantastic hits. Shakira will delight fans with her trademark sensual rhythms and beats on She Wolf, while Rihanna brings a fierce new edge with Rated R. Norah Jones will release a collection of new soulful hits with The Fall, while the legendary Janet Jackson’s two-disc Number Ones is sure to impress long-time fans.

Singer-songwriter John Mayer will bring his Southern country charisma in his holiday release Battle Studies. HBO hit duo Flight of the Conchords’ spin indie folk tunes on I Told You I was Freaky, and Californiabased Weezer’s heavily promoted Raditude is available to gift. Other great gifts include both volumes of Glee: The Music, a collection of the cult favorite’s covers of Broadway tunes and pop hits.

Discovery Green’s ICE, located downtown, offers visitors the chance to skate under the stars and skyscrapers.
Houston offers holiday activites By Elizabeth Bailey Holiday Gift Guide In a city where winter weather lasts for two months and rarely slips below mid-40 degrees, sometimes we want to fool ourselves into thinking we live somewhere with proper winters where we can go ice skating outside. Discovery Green If skating on ice in 70 degree weather is your wish, venture to Discovery Green, located across the street from the George R. Brown Convention Center in East Downtown. Starting Thanksgiving Day, for $10 you can ice skate, rentals included. The Ice at Discovery Green is
made up of an ice floor that lays over a drained version of Kinder Lake, the body of water that resides behind the Anheuser – Busch Stage and Fondren Foundation Performance Space. BP America funds the costs to keep Kinder Lake frozen at 22 degrees, using recycled water from the lake and renewable energy so you can be guilt free. Featured is a smaller version of a rink specialized for toddlers called the Snow Box, where parents can assist a tot’s first walk on frozen water. As the saying goes, “if you can walk, you can skate,” so your fervent two-year-old runners will make the cut. On Saturday afternoons in December leading up to Christmas, KUHF Houston Public Radio will
sponsor “Skating with Santa.” Children will get a kick out of doing figure 8s with a thin and fit Santa Claus. Be sure to find the KUHF booth by the Lake House Waterside Café, where you can make winter holiday ornaments out of recycled CDs for free. Parking can be a hassle if you don’t luck into a parallel spot on the street and can’t stomach the $10 for parking in the underground garage beneath Discovery Green. Remember that the Metro Rail is just a few blocks away, and is a convenient second option. Houston Pavilions It’s snowing at the Houston Pavilions! Downtown’s newest attraction has great restaurants and
live music venues (House of Blues). So, go take a picture, spin in the snow or catch flakes on your tongue, but don’t expect to make a snow angel because the flakes evaporate on contact. And if you’re enjoying everything that Downtown has to offer enter to win a weekend stay at The Four Season Hotel with complementary spa treatments and a $200 gift card from the Pavilions. Shopping and Skating On the other hand, if you need to cram in a holiday shopping spree before you can fulfill that gliding on ice desire, try Polar Ice Galleria. It is a tradition inside the lavish institution for Houstonians. Lines for smelly rental skates tend to be long at nights and on weekends, and as
massive as the Galleria rink is, there are often too many people for extra space. In addition to receiving the voyeuristic pleasure of being watched on the rink amidst the hundreds of others in bold colored sweaters, there’s a colossal Christmas tree in the center of the rink that nearly reaches the top of the third level and can light up even the most secular eyes. For those of you not in the inner loop of the city, Memorial City Mall also boasts a rink in an inner-mall location. A new addition to outside iceskating tradition in Houston is the Woodlands Ice Skating Rink at Town Center, which proudly self proclaims to be the largest outside ice rink in the Southwest region.

RELIGION
What does this season mean to you? By Patricia Estrada Holiday Gift Guide Although the Christmas lights are hung and Santa Clauses are in greeing customers in shopping centers across the U.S., December marks the celebration of different holidays as well, including Hanukkah, Kwanza and New Year’s Day. Christmas traditions are unique to each family, individual and culture. No one knows exactly why Christmas is celebrated Dec. 25, but many Christians celebrate this day as the birth of Jesus Christ. As tradition in the U.S. and Canada, people decorate their homes with Christmas lights and Christmas trees. Children write letters to Santa, bake gingerbread cookies on Christmas Eve and place them with milk by the fireplace. But few people know that many of the American traditions actually originated in England, Wales, Ireland and Scotland. One such tradition is hanging a sprig of mistletoe in a doorway or hallway, so that whomever stands under it must kiss. The acts of Christmas caroling and sending Christmas cards also originated in England. In Wales, people light a candle and place it in their front window to symbolize the welcoming of Mary and Joseph. In France, children place their shoes in front of the fireplace so Père Noël can fill them with candy and treats. Latin Americas celebrate Las Posadas. This happens nine days before Christmas, when groups of people reenact Mary and Joseph searching for lodgings. According to tradition, those in the Posada knock on people’s doors, and they are refused at first, but later get admitted into homes. Few people in Asia and Africa celebrate Christmas. The Jewish faith celebrates Hanukkah, the Jewish festival of lights, translating to “dedication” in Hebrew. It is celebrated on the 25th day of the Hebrew month of Kislev and lasts eight days. Each day, one candle of the menorah is lit. Jewish people give gifts and contributions to the poor during this time as well. The history of Hanukkah is traced back to 165 BCE when the Jews in Judea defeated Antiochus IV. To celebrate the defeat, they held festivities in the Temple in Jerusalem that was dedicated to God. Kwanza is an African American holiday that is celebrated on Dec. 26, lasting seven days. The history of this holiday is traced back to 1966. It was developed by a Pan-African studies and black cultural leader, Maulana Karenga. The holiday centers on seven principles of black culture: unity, selfdetermination, collective work and responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity and faith. Ramadan is the Islamic month when Muslims fast for 30 days.
This means they restrain from eating, consuming alcohol and smoking, among other things, all day with a break after dark. During this time, Muslims are encouraged to read the Qur’an and focus on prayer. Eid al-Fitr is the 29th or 20th day of fasting, which marks the end of the fasting period when Muslims donate food to the poor, and a feast is held with friends and relatives. Ramadan falls on the ninth month of the Islamic calendar. Usually celebrated Jan. 1, New Year’s Day marks the end of one year and the beginning of a new one. Several cultures celebrate on other days. Fireworks and the drop of a large crystal ball in New York City’s Times Square are common celebratory traditions of Western cultures.

Glitz and Glamour for the Holidays By Shaziya Bandukia HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE With the holidays right around the corner, it’s becoming more important to find the perfect party dress. The year 2009 has featured eccentric styles with elements that make the wearer look like a model in a runway show. Dresses now require sequins and hordes of colors, whereas the shoes are now fierce with a version of the gladiator sandal, the “cage” heel. Even accessories make a statement with feathered headbands and colorful opaque tights.
Perfectly simple. The perfect little black dress is seemingly the safest choice, but this season the dress must have a bit more detail. Imagine a black, strapless dress with stacked hearts and sequin beading near the top. On a satiny fabric, the sequin adds more shimmer, making it the perfect go-to dress. The dress can be worn with a black, lightly feathered headband and a pair of cutout leggings. A simple black pair of heels can be worn to complement laced, barely-there leggings.
Perfectly glitzy. The sequined mini dress adds nothing but the perfect glamour to any holiday party. Rather than the usual silver or gold sequins, try a little more color, such as a royal blue with hints of pink. Since the dress is already quite a statement, wear minimal to no jewelry. The shoes can be a pair of strappy high-heels complementing the hints of pink or other colors on the dress. Perfectly cozy. Mini dresses for the holidays have been
the perfect companion to a trench coat, but not this season as a new trend has taken over the fashion world. One can take a floral print or even a plain mini dress with a sweetheart neckline, and rather than wearing a coat, a boyfriend blazer can help fight the cold weather. A pair of opaque tights can be worn with a pair of “cage” heels. This symbolizes both style and warmth for the winter. With so many styles introduced this year, a fashionista is bound to find the perfect holiday dress. A little bit of sequin with some feathers and many colors…ta-da! It’s the perfect glitz and glamour for the holidays.

Designer steps off runway and into the director’s chair By Jarrod Klawinsky holiday gift guide About this time of year, the Academy of Motion Picture and Sciences begin doling out Oscar nods. And while this year has been full of dull and subpar films, an upcoming film by renowned fashion designer Tom Ford is promised to be one of his greatest creations yet. As the Creative Director of Yves St. Laurent and Gucci, he reinvented both labels bringing the almost bankrupt institutions to a value of $4.3 billion in 1999. Now almost eight years after his very public and dramatic departure, Tom Ford has remade himself. Making his directorial debut in, A Single Man, Ford’s adaptation of Christopher Isherwood’s novel based in 1960s Los Angeles is receiving Oscar buzz, already winning an award for “Best Actor” at the Venice Film Festival and a 10-minute standing ovation. Described by famed author Edmund White as “one of the first and best novels of the modern gay liberation movement,” Ford impresses that this is not a gay movie. “I like chocolate cake. Do I define my life by the fact that I like chocolate cake? For me, that’s what sexuality is. I didn’t think of making a movie with gay characters. I want to make sure that people don’t think this is a gay film, because it is a universal film,” he said in an interview with W Magazine. “We all go through the same things in life — romance, grief, isolation, trying to come to an understanding of what life is about. I wouldn’t want someone not to see it, thinking, Oh, that’s a gay love story. That’s not the core of the film.” The film’s opening scene is like stepping into one of the Tom Ford advertisements, crisp Italian suits and minimalist Scandinavian furniture. A Single Man presents a day in the life of a college professor George, played by Colin Firth, who struggles to break free of his grief over the death of his longtime lover, Jim (Matthew Goode). The everglamorous Julianne Moore portrays George’s friend Charley, who longs to rekindle the relationship they once shared. The entire film is filled with the immaculate taste and atmosphere that Ford is known for. He was involved in every part of the making of the film, to the set and costume design. “There is a good deal of my soul, if one has a soul, in that film,” Ford said. “I’ve never shown that side of myself.” And although he scoffs at the comparisons, avid Mad Men fans will notice some similarities, from the gorgeously rendered interiors that capture the characters’ personalities to the voice-only appearance by John Hamm, which further evokes the series. The film is said to evoke extreme emotion and is scheduled for limited-release on Dec. 11 just before the Oscar nomination deadline. A Single Man will be showing in Houston on Dec. 25 at the Angelika Theater in downtown.

FOOD
“ Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn’t before. What if
By Wilson Chang holiday gift guide
Christmas, he thought,
Come Nov. 26, turkeys all over the U.S. will be given their last rites before being unceremoniously stuffed, buttered, fried or roasted in celebration of Thanksgiving. While the meal itself is often something to look forward to, the sleeping sensation afterwards is generally not desired. One rumored source of this post-Thanksgiving lethargy is the enzyme tryptophan. Tryptophan is an amino acid essential to the human diet. The body uses tryptophan and synthesizes it into niacin, otherwise known as vitamin B3, and serotonin, a crucial neurotransmitter. Since the body cannot produce tryptophan, it must be ingested. Tryptophan is not only found in turkey. In fact, a variety of foods contain tryptophan including pork, beef, milk, soybeans, eggs and many others. As infamous as turkey is for tryptophan, it actually contains very little compared to egg whites or cheese. So why don’t people get sleepy after eating an omelet or enjoying some fondue? If these foods that are higher in tryptophan don’t cause sleepiness, what does?
doesn’t come from a
store. What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit

After Thanksgiving lethargy? Trytophan not the enemy

This state of sleepiness and lethargy that often comes after Thanksgiving, or any large meal, is a condition called postprandial somnolence (PPS). This phenomenon was the subject of an episode of The Boondocks, where it was referred to as “The Itis.” To explain PPS, the show used a sandwich called “The Luther Burger,” a four pound burger with grilled onions, cheese and bacon sandwiched between two Krispy Kreme donuts. The burger immediately caused those who ate it to fall asleep. Though the show was parodying the absurd obesity lawsuits lodged against McDonalds, it does a fairly decent job of explaining one of the causes of PPS. Foods high in sugar are carbohydrates and are absorbed into the bloodstream very quickly, causing insulin levels to rise. This spike in insulin causes the body to increase the intake of amino acids in the body, with the exception of our friend tryptophan. With a high level of tryptophan compared to other amino acids, tryptophan is more readily available to be directed to the brain, where it’s synthesized into serotonin. From here it is consequently
synthesized into melatonin, a hormone connected to circadian rhythms and sleep. This increased level of melatonin is what causes sleepiness after a big meal. Another cause of PPS is an imbalance in the autonomous nervous system when food is ingested. When food arrives in the stomach and small intestine, the parasympathetic nervous system experiences an increase in activity while it begins to decrease in the sympathetic nervous system. This imbalance causes a state of low energy and a need to rest. The larger the meal, the more imbalanced the autonomic nervous system becomes and the more tired you feel. So, the true culprit behind the lethargy after a Thanksgiving meal is the meal itself. Typical Thanksgiving foods like turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, sweet potatoes and many more are either chock full of sugars and carbohydrates to spike insulin levels or ingested in large amounts to throw off the autonomous nervous system. Is there a way to prevent PPS from happening? Yes there is, but after a Thanksgiving meal wouldn’t it be better to laze off afterward anyway? Maybe postprandial somnolence isn’t too bad after all.

With the holidays around the corner, treat yourself or a loved one with the gift of travel this season. If you have not made any concrete plans, there is still time to escape the day-to-day with a reasonable price tag. Making travel plans can be stressful. Some questions that may come up for a budgetminded traveler: Where to go? Where, when, and how to find the best deals? How much should be spent? Here are some ideas for this holiday season that may give you a first -or second- look at the world outside of Houston.

Vacation packages The all-inclusive vacation package is the way to travel. With just one point of purchase, they take care of looking for individual deals for airfare, hotels and minute details in between. Vacation-package agencies, like Fun Jet offer all-inclusive deals from Houston to exotic locations like Ixtapa or Riu Vallarta in Mexico for around only $400. The only catch is that you have to book with at least one other person. If you just want to somewhere within the U.S., they also offer packages to Las Vegas in a 4.5-star hotel for only $420 per person.

Drive-away instead of car rentals Drive-away? There are companies that arrange for automobile transportation to various part of the country by contract drivers. What does that have to do with your vacation? Well, instead of renting a car for the dream roadtrip to New York City or San Francisco, consider delivering someone else’s vehicle only for the cost of gas. The driver must to be over 23 years old with a valid driver’s license and a good driving record. Most companies will require a refundable deposit around $350. You will need delivery within an assigned time frame. These match-up companies understand that the contract drivers want to site-see and smell the roses along the way, so the delivery deadline can be negotiated with the agent. Different companies have different rules. Look up local “drive away” companies within the area as well as the destination area. Start calling them at least two weeks before your departure date. Let them know about your destination and the time you are looking to depart.
Train If you are feeling dreamy and yearn for the romance of a personal Orient Express, consider train travel. When was the last time you cut across the country surveying the beauty of the land and dozing off safely to the sunset? Train travel is the only way to get across the U.S. with the ease and true comfort. For example, if you take the Sunset Limited tomorrow that departs everyday from Houston at 9:50 p.m. to Los Angeles, it will cost around $ 336 for a round trip ticket. And unlike airfare, Amtrak prices usually stay about the same during the holiday season. And if you happen to change your mind somewhere along the trip, or missed the train by accident, last-minute adjustments within the same day of travel usually cost only a fraction to last-minute airfare adjustments.

Most Improved Special Section Sales Strategy UNC Charlotte The University Times This year was by far the worst year to be in sales, especially in advertising sales. With businesses cutting back expenses, advertising is usually the first place that gets cut. Being able to sell advertising well, a sales rep has to know how to show the business owners why they need advertising. This aspect is one of the many points we train our reps on. Our basketball preview is one of our biggest special sections. Months of preparation go into making this section the best it can possibly be. This section’s content is all about our men’s and women basketball teams, and it is our hope that the content alone makes advertisers want to be a part of the publication. We know that the content alone cannot sell all of our ad positions, so this is where our reps training and all of the preparation comes in. Two months before our special sections are created; the managers go over many to‐do lists. First, the business manager prints out a list of every company or business that has run in that issue in the past. The production team is also hard at work creating a flyer that will be mailed to all businesses that have ran with in the past. After that all of businesses are looked over by the marketing director, sales manager, and marketing advisor, and are split up among reps. Then a special meeting is held where the client lists are given out and a quick review of selling points for the issue is presented. Since UNC Charlotte does not currently have a football team, basketball is our biggest sport. Our local advertisers are aware of this, so they are not as hard to sell to. Our biggest challenge is to get them to advertise in color and to sell larger ads. A new management team, as well as a basically new group of sales reps, has helped make this years’ Basketball Preview a much better section. It is clearly obvious that the creativity of the production team has gotten stronger and that the selling ability of the reps have gotten more refined in the past year. Most of this is due to again a brand new management team, with great help from our marketing advisor. This year was actually our first year of mailing out our flyers including last year’s issue to businesses. That has gotten much response. Not all of them were willing to buy at first, but they were more curious than anything. Our paper is growing tremendously and it shows through our increase in sales in our regular editions and in our special sections. Even in this down time in the economy, we are not only able to produce a paper, but continue to produce it twice a week. I am sure you will see many special sections that have had an increase in sales, but do keep in mind that our Basketball Preview has been publishing for many years, so it is not like something that we are trying out a couple of times. Our sales increase for this special section was 22 percent. That is a huge jump for a section that has been publishing for more than 10 years.
