Budget breakdown: How is SG using your student fees? MITCHELL PARTON | NEWS EDITOR
Undergraduate Student Government (SG) has encumbered 30 percent of its annual budget this semester, with most funds being used for outreach initiatives, studentgovernment retreats and co-sponsorship of events. SG receives its budget through the general fees paid by undergraduate students. The budget is split into seven primary categories — programs and initiatives, leadership development, cosponsorship, cabinet expenditures, executive expenditures, operating expenses and discretionary or unallocated funds. Here’s our rundown of where these funds have gone so far. Programs and Initiatives – $10,532.44 encumbered SG allocated $48,500 to programs and initiatives this fiscal year, which includes eight subcategories: athletics and spirit, campus services, community relations, diversity and inclusion, outreach, safety, sustainability and other. So far, SG has encumbered funds in only three subcategories: outreach, sustainability and other. Outreach – $6,514.21 encumbered “Capturing the Flag” Film Screening: SG allocated $3,259.52 to sponsor a screening of the film “Capturing the Flag” in UC’s Mainstreet Cinema Sept. 27. The film was created to illustrate the importance of civic engagement and voter inequity. SG Apparel: Senators allocated $3,178.73 Sept. 22 to purchase SG-branded promotional items and apparel. These items include polos for SG members, wall clings, phone wallets and stickers. Sustainability – $1,318.23 encumbered UC Farmer’s Market: SG allocated $1,318.23 to host the UC Farmer’s Market in collaboration with the Programs and Activities Council (PAC) Oct. 18. Other – $2,700.00 encumbered Flu Shots: SG allocated
$2,700.00 to an annual event hosted by the College of Nursing Tribunal, during which nursing students administered flu shots to students free of charge. Leadership Development – $5,331.84 encumbered Retreats – $5,186.37 encumbered Washington D.C. Retreat: SG spent $4,715.63 to travel to Washington, D.C., for its retreat at the National Campus Leadership Council. Additionally, SG allocated $206.76 to support the SG cabinet retreat and $263.98 to support the SG tribunal retreat, both of which were funded primarily through tribunal funds. Student Government Mentorship Program (SGMP) – $145.47 encumbered The Student Government Membership Program (SGMP) is a leadership program where students work with members of SG to learn leadership skills through presentations and meetings. Co-Sponsorship – $4,897.88 encumbered SG co-sponsored the following events: – Queen City Bhangra ($1,500) – Midwest Dhamaka ($1,000) – Warren Bennis Leadership Experience ($1,004) – Nearly Naked Mile ($501.60)

– Ohio Latino Student Summit ($200.85) – Bearcat Bonding Week ($499.56) – MakeUC Hackathon ($441.87) – Fall Ball ($750.00) – Beach Day ($1,000) Cabinet Expenditures – $2,895.86 encumbered Cabinet expenditures are purchases less than $500 made by members of the president’s cabinet, all of which are approved by the president or vice president, external holdover senator and the chair of the cabinet member’s committee. So far, these funds have been used for SG-branded t-shirts and phone wallets, cookies for tabling events, printing midterm ballot info and materials for the revised UC fight song. Operating Expenses – $710.10 encumbered This category was used for SG marketing materials and office supplies. Executive Expenditures – $588.86 encumbered Executive expenditures are purchases less than $150 that are approved by the speaker and the student body president or vice president.

UC Health and Cincinnati Red Bike looks to expand services into Cincinnati neighborhoods, such as Lower Price Hill and Bond Hill. ESTHER GEORGE | STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER
UC Health renews partnership with Cincinnati Red Bike ELIZABETH SCHMITT | FEATURES EDITOR TYLER KITTS | CONTRIBUTOR UC Health recently renewed its partnership with Cincinnati Red Bike, a nonprofit bike-sharing service, for five more years. Red Bike launched in September 2014 with sponsorship from UC Health. The sponsorship, along with other fundraising measures, allowed the organization to purchase its initial 260 bikes and 29 docking stations. Since then, Red Bike has expanded to 440 bikes and 57 docking stations with plans to add 100 electronic-assist bikes to its fleet. Bikes can be found in locations across the University of Cincinnati’s uptown and medical campuses as an alternate form of public transportation. Red Bike is currently available in four cities: Cincinnati, Covington, Newport and Bellevue. The nonprofit was first envisioned in 2010 by Leadership Cincinnati, a group that brainstorms development for the city. In 2013, Leadership Cincinnati brought on Jason Barron as executive director for Red Bike. Barron helped turn the group’s vision into a reality by managing the project, which included securing a sponsorship from UC Health. “UC Health has been there from the beginning,” Barron said. “They were incredibly supportive to come on board as a sponsor and give us financial backing to
actually make this work.” Red Bike aims to not only provide affordable transportation, but also to encourage people to get out and exercise. Red Bikes’ next expansion will include extending its services to Cincinnati neighborhoods like Lower Price Hill, Avondale, Bond Hill, West End, Walnut Hills and others. But with the addition of e-bikes, Red Bike hopes to make rides more accessible to a broad market by removing much of the physical burden riders face. Riders won’t have to pedal as frequently when using an e-bike, and the motor makes it easier to ride on hills. “We want it to be for everyone — bikes are great for all kinds of people,” said Barron. “Everybody needs a way that is cheap and healthy to get places, and our goal is to get as many people bike riding as possible.” The continued partnership with UC Health will help the nonprofit stay on track to spread to other areas and expand the variety of bikes it offers. “Our bikes last for a real long time,” Barron said. “We had 240 bikes when we launched, and 99 percent of those bikes are still in service.” With the durability of the bikes and increased presence in the area, Barron said he thinks that Red Bikes are here to stay and will continue to become easier and more convenient for people to use.

UC Clermont receives largest cash gift ever BRENDAN PRENDERGAST | CONTRIBUTOR
The University of Cincinnati’s Clermont campus recently received a $500,000 cash donation from an anonymous donor — the largest cash gift the college has ever received. Dana Parker, director of development at UC Clermont, said she was excited that the donor chose to support UC Clermont. “It is going to allow us to make a major impact for our students,” Parker said. Funds will be used to establish the Sophia Fund for Innovation, which will support faculty-driven research by funding grant-writing stipends and other initiatives, according to a news release. The fund will also support the UC Clermont Food Pantry, which provides
food, toiletries, hygiene products and more to students with financial need. A donation this large isn’t common for UC Clermont, said Parker. “[For] something like this to happen to us is unique, and [it] can be life changing to firstgeneration students,” said Parker. Jeff Bauer, dean of students, said in a news release that the donation will directly impact the student experience on campus. “UC Clermont is incredibly grateful for this generous, historic gift to the college,” said Bauer. “The funds will go directly toward helping our students succeed by meeting their needs and improving their experience on campus — goals that align perfectly with our longstanding student-first focus.”
Students echoed Bauer’s sentiments, saying many of them attend the college for its comparatively lower cost. “Talking to other kids that go to Clermont College, I’ve figured out that a lot of them are there for financial reasons,” said JT Homan, a first-year Aviation student at UC Clermont. “So, Clermont College giving back to some of the students in need, on top of offering a great degree at a more obtainable cost, is something I have a lot of respect for.” On average, UC Clermont costs $5,316 for in-state students and $12,548 for out-of-state students annually — nearly half the cost of tuition at UC’s uptown campus. “I think the benefits to the students will be
tremendous, as many chose the satellite campus as the cheaper resource available,” said Emma McGaha, a first-year pre-business student at UC Clermont. McGaha said she is particularly fond of the food pantry initiative, which directly impacts students with the highest financial need. “Hopefully the food and personal hygiene will help them flourish as students and community members,” said McGaha. “The campus does a nice job of trying to give back to those affiliated with it, so this is another nice step.” To donate items or volunteer at the UC Clermont Food Pantry, contact Jennifer Radt via email at Jennifer.

UC student launches vegan snack startup
Wholistic Brands is a local vegan company started by UC student Benita Munnerlyn. PROVIDED
SHANNON SMITH | CONTRIBUTOR Some people watch Netflix or go to the gym when they aren’t occupied with schoolwork, but one senior at the University of Cincinnati is using her free time to jump-start her own business instead. Benita Munnerlyn is a full-time student studying international business, marketing and entrepreneurship. She is also the founder of Wholistic Brands, a
local food company that focuses on creating healthy vegan snacks. Munnerlyn started her company in July 2017 after her homemade granola recipe was a hit among her friends at church. Her goal was to create a filling snack that would keep her friends energized between games of volleyball after church service. Wholistic Brands uses only natural and organic ingredients in its products. Many store-bought granola bars contain added sugar,
but Munnerlyn believes natural flavors are all that’s needed for a tasty product. Inspiration for her recipes stemmed from Munnerlyn’s desire to satisfy her own cravings on a vegan diet. She found that using ingredients like banana, vanilla, agave and cinnamon offer sweetness without adding extra sugar. Not only are the servings low in fat and oil, but they are also good sources of protein and Omega-3. Wholistic Brands currently offers two main products: signature granola mix and the community cookie. The community cookie is a vegan twist on a classic treat, using oats and dairy-free chocolate chips for a low-calorie sweet fix. It also gets its name from Munnerlyn’s desires to have a positive impact on local citizens and the Greater Cincinnati economy. After she graduates in
the spring, Munnerlyn hopes to expand her business and offer jobs to people who may have a harder time finding work, including ex-convicts and those with lower education levels. “Benita envisions facilities based in urban developments so that those in re-entry programs can immediately start working again,” reads a description on the Wholistic Brands website. “People without cars can access facilities through major bus lines, at-risk women have a flexible and consistent way to support themselves and their families, and urban teens have something productive to do after school while learning fiscal responsibility.”
Munnerlyn showcased her products at the UC Farmer’s Market last month. She received positive feedback and caught the attention of students who are looking for simple steps they can take to instill healthier eating habits. “I want to help others,” Munnerlyn said. “I have a passion for food and its wholistic and healing properties.” She hopes to enhance the health and well-being of her customers and employees. Munnerlyn’s next step is to spread the word about her company beyond campus with the help of social media. Products are currently available for purchase at wholisticbrands.com.

The search for a service dog ELIZABETH SCHMITT | FEATURES EDITOR Her chunky green and slightly worn rolling backpack may seem a little out of place on a campus full of stairs and cobblestones. But for Michelle Lawton, a sixth-year Ph.D. candidate in musicology, it’s a necessity. Lawton extends her arms to the walls of buildings she traverses — a habit she developed to balance herself as her chunky backpack rolls behind her, carrying her books, pens, notes and, most importantly, her medicine. Lawton also carries two thermoses of hot water with her everywhere she goes. Throughout the day, she mixes cromolyn sodium — a mast cell stabilizer — into the steaming water. After walking through the halls of the CollegeConservatory of Music (CCM), Lawton is exhausted. She sits on a bench and waits for a UC shuttle, which makes a stop by her apartment building near medical campus. Though her apartment is less than a mile away, Lawton cannot make the walk — and because of her medical conditions, she cannot drive, either. But as she sips on her cromolyn sodium cocktail, she said the wait isn’t that bad — it’s usually only 15 minutes. Lawton doesn’t complain, though. Instead, she weathers the storm, much like the flyers she and her friends have displayed across campus. The flyers, which read “A Mutt for Mel,” can be found lining the walls of McMicken Hall or outside, stapled to Mainstreet bulletin boards. The flyers explain that Lawton has Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS). These conditions make it difficult for Lawson to keep herself upright, and her mast cells mistake practically everything as an allergen.
Michelle Lawton has raised 70 percent of the funds required to get a trained service dog which would be an asset to her health and lifestyle. PROVIDED
coursework and my teaching mostly before things got bad,” she said, “but there [were] one or two classes that I had to do medical extensions.” Mobility on campus has become one of Lawton’s biggest struggles. She can barely walk upstairs, and for months, she was unable to access many resources on campus. “There was no way to get in to the [CCM] library easily,” said Lawton. “I had to call the staff, then they buzz me in and take an elevator down to escort me up.” Though she now has special access to the elevator, the head of the CCM library and the Accessibility Resources Office spent months working to give Lawton that privilege. A service dog would be a game-changer for Lawton. It could provide a future where she can safely cross campus without fear of falling over. It could warn her of potential allergens that could send her into anaphylactic shock. It’s one of the main reasons she started raising funds for a service dog this spring. But it takes a lot of money and time to train service dogs — especially one with the ability to provide balance support and detect allergens, which costs $16,000 on average. For Lawton, a standard-size poodle or poodle mix will be the ideal candidate. Poodles are often large, hypoallergenic and can help adults maintain their balance. Lawton started raising funds through GoFundMe at the urging of her friends, but she now fundraises through Sara Spins — an organization created by UC graduate Sara Whitestone that helps students with disabilities by providing financial support and resources to increase their mobility on campus. Lawton has a QR code set up through Sarah Spins that links people directly to her fundraising page. The code can be found on Lawton’s flyers posted around campus. So far, Lawton has raised 70 percent of the funds with help from family, friends and local churches. To date, she has just $4,418.04 left to raise out the initial $16,000 requested. To donate, visit Lawton’s fundraising page on the Sarah Spins website.
“My mast cells are unstable and weird,” said Lawton. “Instead of having an allergic reaction to specific things, my cells react to practically anything.” Lawton must carry her cromolyn sodium everywhere with her. It tastes a little salty, she said, but it is essential to keep her body from slipping into anaphylactic shock. “It’s still a disease we do not understand,” said Dr. Jonathan Bernstein, an allergist-immunologist at UC College of Medicine. Lawton’s mast cells, which are responsible for responding to foreign bodies or injuries by releasing chemical mediators like histamines, are overly sensitive to certain biological makers, Bernstein said. It was only recently that Lawton became an expert about her conditions. “It was about four years ago when things started to get worse,” she said. “Then, about three years ago, everything absolutely tanked, and we actually figured out the diagnosis and started treating things.” “The first time I went into anaphylactic shock was at the health center,” she said. “If I had been anywhere else, I might have died.” She credits Cincinnati’s health care system for keeping her alive. “If I had been in most of the other places I looked at for grad school, or if I had been at home, I probably would not have survived when I first got sick,” she said. Lawton, a Californian native who grew up just north of Santa Barbara, attended Allan Hancock Community College before transferring to UC Irvine and completing her undergraduate degree in music, with a focus on piano. She often experienced much pain while playing — a foreshadowing of her EDS and POTS diagnoses. She then earned a master’s degree in musicology at University of Northern Colorado before she moved to Cincinnati to begin her studies at CCM’s graduate program. “I get the feeling sometimes [that] I was meant to be here,” said Lawton. Lawton works with four different hospitals in Cincinnati to manage her care. To keep herself upright, Lawton has had a lot of help. When her health was at its worst, she was taken in by Zach Wyse, pastor of the West Side Reform Church in Cincinnati, and his family for two months until her mother could fly to Ohio. “At the time, her health was so poor that there were days where she would struggle to get out of bed,” said Wyse. “We wanted someone to be there and help her out when she was having difficult days and she was losing the ability to get behind the wheel of a car.” For Wyse and his wife, KC, there was little discussion about whether to help Michelle, despite already caring for two young children. They knew she needed the help. “We did not think twice about it,” said Wyse. “We saw it as our duty and our delight to bring her to our home.” Lawton is doing much better now, but managing her health is still a struggle and Feliciana, a 4 Paws for Ability dog, enjoys a pet from a UC student during Dogs and has greatly impacted her studies at UC.

‘House of Cards’ lead actress Robin Wright makes final season her own DAVID REES | CHIEF REPORTER At the beginning of its sixth season, Netflix original series “House of Cards” finds Claire Underwood (Robin Wright) in her most ambitious endeavor yet — being president of the United States. Following the resignation and death of President Frank Underwood, portrayed by Kevin Spacey, Claire must take the mantle her husband manipulated so hard to achieve. With Frank dead, Claire now has her own agenda and secrets to attend to. But the death of her husband remains an ongoing mystery — one she is unable to escape. Like her husband, Claire is a conniving force not to be reckoned with. She uses her vast shrewdness and wit to manipulate those closest to her to hide the many egregious acts that could bring her presidency to a grinding halt. But unlike her husband, Claire does it all with a killer blonde bob and an impeccable wardrobe. The glimmering corrupt side of Claire that has always been there is now on full display in this final season. Claire is deliciously diabolical. Her choices are not moral nor sane, yet the audience cannot help but cheer on this unscrupulous politician. In turn, this is all due to the incredible script that is amplified by Wright, who won a Golden Globe for the role in 2014 and has been nominated twice since. Writers were faced with major obstacles this season, as actor Kevin Spacey faced sexual misconduct allegations at the beginning of this season’s production. Netflix quickly fired Spacey and announced
the cancellation of the show. But Wright challenged Netflix’s decision, as canceling the show would leave roughly 2,500 people without work. In the month that followed, Netflix announced that it would continue the show for one more season, forcing writers to go back to the drawing board. The death and disappearance of Spacey’s character remains a constant weight, especially as the character never fully gains closure until the show’s very end. However, the show manages to shift its focus to Claire. A loyalist to the Underwood family, Doug Stamper (Michael Kelly) is also brought to the forefront. Like previous seasons, Doug proves to be a dedicated servant — one who is just as twisted as those he works for. Kelly does an incredible job playing the lonely and mysterious righthand man. Series regulars Boris McGiver, Campbell Scott, Patricia Clarkson and Jayne Arkinson all do great jobs fulfilling their roles in Claire’s world. Additionally, the Shepherd Family, portrayed by Diane Lane, Greg Kinnear, and Cody Fern, prove to be worthy adversaries for Claire and her cabinet. On par with its previous seasons, season six of “House of Cards” proved a moderate success among critics, earning a 75 percent on Rotten Tomatoes. But it seems audiences disagreed with critics, as the season earned a 27 percent approval rating among viewers. Regardless, the sixth season of “House of Cards” is a fulfilling final chapter to the fiveyear show. It’s a revolutionary story and one of Netflix’s first originals, which ultimately began the phenomenon of binge-watching.

CCM’s ‘Turn of the Screw’ dares to scare audiences MIA ATHEY | CONTRIBUTOR The College-Conservatory of Music’s (CCM) opera department depicts a haunting ghost story in Benjamin Britten’s opera “Turn of the Screw,” opening this weekend in Patricia Corbett Theater. Hailed by Stephen King as the “quintessential ghost story,”“Turn of the Screw” takes a different approach from opera’s usual plot of romance, fairytale or spectacle. Instead, the show frightens audiences with an eerie tale of ghosts and uncertainty. In the words of director Vince DeGeorge, “You don’t need to know opera to see this.” Based on the novel by Henry James, the opera is set in the Victorian era and follows the story of a governess who is assigned to take care of two children, Miles and Flora, at the Bly House. The siblings’ uncle gives the governess three strict rules to follow: never write to him about the children’s well-being, never ask about family history and never abandon the children.
Excited to start her new job, the governess soon learns that Miles has been expelled from school. A series of odd events begin to unravel as the two seemingly sweet children befriend two ghosts in the house — one, the ghost of a former manservant; and the other, the children’s former governess. The governess encounters these ghosts and informs the housekeeper, Mrs. Grose, who doesn’t believe her and thinks she may be going insane. The ghosts try to lure the children to join them in death as the governess struggles to protect the children at all costs. The end of the opera will leave the audience questioning reality from the abstract. The set serves as an important role in telling this evocative tale. Resembling a large turntable or screw, the two-story set gives audiences a glimpse into the Bly House. Rotating throughout scenes, the set captures various moments throughout the day. This rotation cleverly reflects the opera’s title. Depending on the audience’s
interpretation of a “screw,” the title may also suggest the slow devolution of the governess’ mind as she tries to grasp the events happening around her, or the pressure as events swirl and tighten around the governess until it becomes too much for her to bear. Director Vince DeGeorge urges audiences of all backgrounds to see the show. “I’m inviting everyone I know to come see this because it’s scary, it’s accessible and in English. It’s a masterpiece — challenging for the singer, yet still accessible.” The cast delivering these moving performances are students from the artist diploma master’s program. “We have a world class opera department,” DeGeorge said. “Students at UC should take advantage of this and come to the show.” The opening performance is Thursday, Nov. 15, at 8 p.m. For more information on shows and to reserve tickets, visit the CCM box office.

Takeaways from Bearcats’ first regular-season win SPENCER SCHULTZ | STAFF REPORTER

Bearcats celebrate a basket by Keith Williams (2). PATRICK MURPHY | MULTIMEDIA DIRECTOR
The University of Cincinnati men’s basketball team won its first game of the season Tuesday evening at Fifth Third Arena, defeating the North Carolina Central University Eagles 73-51. The Bearcats never trailed the Eagles, shooting 31-of53 (59 percent). UC sophomore guard Keith Williams didn’t disappoint in his first career start in place of senior Cane Broome, finishing with a team-high 15 points to go along with four assists and three rebounds. Williams contributed on defense as well, blocking three shots and coming up with two steals. “Keith’s effort in practice the last three days [is the reason he started],” said UC head coach Mick Cronin. “He’s a guy that wants to do well so bad. He cares so much, so it’s just about finding him a comfort zone. He gets jittery at times, but I thought as the game went on, offensively, he got calmer and calmer and calmer.” Junior forward Trevon Scott led the Bearcats in the first half, scoring eight points on 4-of-4 shooting. He finished with 12 points on 6-of-6 and three
rebounds. Despite shooting 14 percent on three-point attempts in the first 20 minutes, UC used a late 13-3 run to take a 34-19 halftime lead. UC continued to execute on offense in the final 20 minutes, finishing with 68 percent on field goals and 57 percent on three-point shots. NCCU junior guard Randy Miller Jr. led the Eagles with 21 points, including 5-of-8 on three pointers. Here are a few takeaways from the win: Williams shines in first career start Williams’ 15 points stemmed from 7-of-12 shooting, including one three-pointer. He turned the ball over just once in 26 minutes, proving he can be comfortable with the ball in his hands. “[We see this in practice] all the time,” said senior point guard Justin Jenifer. “It was just a matter of time. It’s a proud moment to see him play like this tonight.” Multiple double-digit scorers After losing to Ohio State in the season opener, Cronin promised that more playing time would result in more production from his players over time. He got exactly that Tuesday, as the Bearcats had four players in double figures. Williams, Scott, Jenifer and junior Jarron Cumberland combined for 47 points. Freshman Logan Johnson added eight points in 17 minutes after scoring only two points in the loss to the Buckeyes. Turning defensive pressure into offense If you expect to receive playing time from Cronin, you’d better be willing to put forth maximum effort on the defensive end. After placing most of the blame for last week’s loss on the defensive end, Cronin was pleased with the return of his team’s identity. “I thought our effort and energy on defense was excellent,” Cronin said. “I was looking for guys who practice like they play for Cincinnati.”

Jenifer gave insight into how one side of the court affects the other. “We had to come back and get back to what the Bearcats are really about,” Jenifer said. “You know, defense first. Defense is going to turn into offense. It’s just going to come like that for us.” The Bearcats forced 16 turnovers for 19 points. Men’s basketball returns to Fifth Third Arena Friday, Nov. 16, to face the University of WisconsinMilwaukee Panthers. Tipoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. ESPN3 and 700 WLW will provide coverage.

Gary Clark (2014-18) – Houston Rockets The undrafted power forward has seen his role off the bench steadily increase this season, averaging 14.2 minutes per game. Clark has appeared in 10 games for Houston so far, averaging four points, 2.7 rebounds and 0.7 blocks per game. In the Rockets’ 104-85 loss at home to the Portland Trail Blazers Oct. 30, Clark contributed 11 points on 4-of-9 shooting and four rebounds in 19 minutes. During the 98-94 win at the Indiana Pacers on Nov. 5, Clark was on the floor for 24 minutes and finished with six points, six rebounds, three blocks and two steals. Expect Clark to continue to fill a steady role at the NBA level. His four years at UC developed his maturity and skills on both ends of
the floor. “Gary’s playing really well,” Rockets head coach Mike D’Antoni told the Houston Chronicle Nov. 4. “Like old-time, like a vet. He doesn’t make many mistakes, and he can really shoot the basketball.”
Jacob Evans III (2015-18) – Golden State Warriors Evans, the 28th overall pick in the 2018 NBA Draft, has spent time with Golden State and its G-League affiliate, the Santa Cruz Warriors, in his first month. After appearing in eight games for Golden State and averaging 0.5 points, one assist and 0.5 rebounds, the shooting guard was assigned to Santa Cruz Tuesday, Nov. 6. In two games with Santa Cruz, Evans averaged of 6.5 points and three rebounds. He was recalled to the NBA Nov. 10 due to injuries to Golden State guard Stephen Curry and forward Draymond Green. Evans’ playing time in Golden State has been limited by all-star Klay Thompson and veteran Shaun Livingston, both of whom are ahead of him on the depth chart. Troy Caupain (2013-17) – Orlando Magic Caupain is signed to a two-way contract with the Orlando Magic,
but the 6-foot-4 point guard has yet to see action at the NBA level. Still, Caupain has been a key asset in three games for Orlando’s G-League affiliate, the Lakeland Magic, averaging 16.7 points, 5.7 assists and six rebounds in 37 minutes. Lance Stephenson (2009-10) – Los Angeles Lakers Stephenson, a 6-foot-6 guard/ forward, signed with the Los Angeles Lakers July 10, joining a team featuring all-star forward LeBron James and young talent including guards Brandon Ingram, Lonzo Ball and forward Kyle Kuzma. Coming off the bench for 16.6 minutes per game, Stephenson has averages of 8.8 points, 2.1 assists and 3.6 rebounds. Sean Kilpatrick (2010-14) After being waived by the Chicago Bulls July 12, Kilpatrick has yet to sign with an NBA organization this season and remains a free agent. The 6-foot-4 shooting guard also had short stints with the Brooklyn Nets, Milwaukee Bucks and Los Angeles Clippers during the 201718 season.
Bearcats prepare for prime-time test with undefeated Knights ZACH FRIES | STAFF REPORTER After a 35-23 victory over the University of South Florida (USF) at Nippert Stadium, the University of Cincinnati football team travels to Orlando, Florida, to face the undefeated University of Central Florida (UCF) Knights Saturday evening. UCF (9-0, 6-0 American Athletic Conference) is ranked No. 11 in The Associated Press Poll. UC (9-1, 5-1 AAC) is No. 19. The Knights have won 22 straight games — the longest active streak in Division I Football Subdivision (FBS). Josh Heupel is in his first season as head coach after previously serving as the offensive coordinator at Missouri for two seasons. The Knights are led on offense by quarterback McKenzie Milton, who has
thrown for 2,309 yards with 21 passing touchdowns and five interceptions. The junior has also rushed for 285 yards and eight touchdowns. At running back, UCF has a two-headed tandem of sophomore Greg McCrae and junior Adrian Killins Jr. McCrae has rushed for 673 yards, averaging 8.9 yards per carry. Killins Jr. has rushed for 546 yards and four touchdowns. UCF has a trio of receivers with over 400 receiving yards — sophomores Gabriel Davis, Tre Nixon and junior Dredrick Snelson. Davis leads UCF with 537 receiving yards. Nixon, an Ole Miss transfer, has 35 receptions for 447 yards. Snelson has five receiving touchdowns. The Knights are allowing 23.9 points per game, ranked second in the AAC behind the Bearcats (15.8
ppg). UCF’s pass defense has been serviceable by giving up roughly 230 passing yards per game, but the Knights have struggled against the run. The team currently ranks No. 101 out of 130 FBS in rushing yards allowed per game. UC running back Michael Warren II rewrote the record books against USF last week, scoring four touchdowns in the 35-23 win. Warren’s 18 touchdowns surpassed DeMarco McCleskey and David Small for most touchdowns from a running back in a single season. Warren’s success on the ground will be key for the Bearcats offensive attack against UCF, as he has the ability to take pressure off redshirt freshman Desmond Ridder’s arm. UC head coach Luke Fickell recognized the UCF offense will create a
challenge for the Bearcats defense. “[UCF] is faster than last year,” Fickell said. “Milton has the ability to throw the ball on the run … His ability to make all the throws accurately is very unique. It’s going to be a fast-paced football game, and we’ve got to be mentally ready for that.” The Bearcats have to beat the Knights to stay in contention for the AAC East Division title and play in the conference championship game. UCF leads the all-time series 2-1, and the Knights won 51-23 last season at Nippert Stadium. ESPN’s College Gameday will be broadcasting live at UCF’s campus from 9 to noon Saturday. The game kicks off at 8 p.m. at Spectrum Stadium. ABC and 700 WLW will provide full coverage.

Voters shouldn’t care about polls SAMUEL SCHELL-OLSEN | STAFF REPORTER As the midterm elections wrap up, some have begun to reflect on the polls. Were they as inaccurate this year as they were in the 2016 presidential election? Or were they more spot-on this time around? The consensus seems to be that they were more accurate this year — but is it true? Here is a dirty secret about polls: they don’t matter. Truth is, only the final tally matters. Polls analyzing the U.S. Senate races were definitely inaccurate. FiveThirtyEight, a reliable polling site, was incorrect about the Indiana and Florida senate races. It gave Joe Donnelly (D-IN) and Bill Nelson (D-FL) odds of more than 70 percent to win. Most polls also misrepresented the result of races in states like Nevada, Missouri and New Jersey. The House races were slightly more accurate, but certainly not perfect. The Cook Political Report, another respected pollster, labeled districts like Oklahoma’s District 5 as “safe GOP” areas. Yet on Election Day, the district flipped. How about our home state of Ohio? What did the polls say? Most polls predicted Democrat candidate Richard Cordray to prevail. Real Clear Politics, an aggregate poll site, gave Cordray a 5-point lead. Polls taken by Gravis, Emerson and Suffolk all had Cordray up by at least 3 points in October. The average person would likely conclude that Cordray would win. But that’s not what happened. Republican candidate Mike DeWine won by 4.3 points,
meaning the polls were off by nearly 8 to 9 points, on average. What happened? Turns out, none of the polls had a sample size of more than 1,000 people. More than 4.3 million people votes were cast. Truth is, you can’t determine how 4.3 million people will vote based off 1,000 people. It’s just not logical. Does anyone remember how the polls predicted Jimmy Carter would perform in the 1976 presidential election? Of course not, because it doesn’t matter. Historically speaking, polls are never brought up unless they are terribly wrong. That’s not a good thing. Polls have been flawed since Harry Truman won his re-election bid in the early 1950s. Why should you care what a poll says? If a poll thinks your candidate is has a 1.6 percent chance of winning, why should it matter? How does a poll impact your ideological values or personal views on that candidate? Should a poll matter if your candidate has a 98.1 percent chance of winning? It shouldn’t, and it doesn’t. In fact, it might discourage people from voting. If someone’s preferred candidate has a 98.1 chance of winning, why should they vote? They’ll win anyway, right? Yes, this is a real prediction from HuffPost about the 2016 presidential election. Yet on Election Day; HuffPost was 100 percent wrong. Voters shouldn’t care about polls. Historically and theoretically, polls have continued to be incorrect or flawed — time and time again.

This week in Sweet and Salty, Sami Stewart talks about having the flu and what it’s like taking care of yourself without parents around. TERO VESALAINEN | DREAMSTIME | TNS
Getting the flu without your mom SAMI STEWART | OPINION EDITOR I got the flu over the weekend for the first time in my adult life, and let me tell you — it’s way worse without your mom nursing you back to health. No one cares about you — even you don’t care about yourself like your mom does. Then again, there’s nobody forcing foul-tasting liquids down your throat when all you want to do is hibernate and watch movies. I was raised by a modern medicine doubter, which means that my road to recovery wasn’t exactly a walk in the park. A simple trip to the doctor for some antibiotics would surely get me back up and running again, right? Well, antibiotics were reserved for the most dire cases, and apparently the flu didn’t qualify as dire. In my house, if you stayed home from school, chores were still in order — flu or no flu. Sorry, but people have children for a reason (free labor), and
according to my mother, I might as well have put my illness to good use by giving the bathroom a good spot-shine. After all, I was the one hurling in there 20 minutes ago. I certainly don’t miss that. But my four days of R&R turned into me transferring my feeble frame from bed to bathroom to couch and back again. My house quickly became a den of filth and squalor blanketed with flu germs. My weekend stay at the quarantine gave me a newfound sense of selfdisgust. Everything hurts. I haven’t felt comfort in years. Is this what it feels like to be old? I’m starving, but I’d rather die than get a waft of food. My fever dreams are pretty entertaining, I won’t lie. But I don’t love waking up shivering in a pool of my own sweat. I must admit that it feels pretty nice to cancel your entire life for a few days with a legitimate excuse. But let’s be honest: working from home is going to be a
long shot. Go ahead, give it a try. See if you can stitch together a few cohesive sentences or expend your last three brain cells to those readings that were due yesterday. It’s not happening, pal. The flu owns you, and it owns your soul. Your only defense is your mom going to battle with a case of vitamin C under one arm, and some awfulsmelling tincture that she promises will provide health and life under the other. But I think my time in the sun is coming soon — hopefully, anyway. I’ve been outside collectively for an hour in the past four days, and I miss that sweet, polluted Cincinnati air. The flu has been lurking behind every corner, stalking my existence since the moment I was pushed out of the nest. Mom, I’m sorry I didn’t take my vitamins that one night six months ago and didn’t drink 4 gallons of water per day consistently for a decade. You were right. Can I go back to school now?

OPINION forbid — that you like romance. Need recommendations? Try “Christmas in Evergreen” and “Finding Santa.”
Hallmark Channel movies SAMI STEWART | OPINION EDITOR STEPHANIE SMITH | DIGITAL EDITOR JACOB FISHER | EDITOR-IN-CHIEF ANNE SIMENDINGER | SOCIAL MEDIA ASSISTANT Sami: Hallmark movies, in all their plotless, bland glory, are among my least favorite ways to spend my time. How has this madness lasted so long? Because Hallmark’s daddy, Crown Media, owns Christmas — that’s why. Come Nov. 1, viewers strap on the feeding bag of corny Christmas dramas until well after the new year. With lower-than-average film budgets, Hallmark can afford to pump out about 40 movies a year with just three weeks and $2 million on average, according to Business Insider. S&P Global Market Intelligence projected that Hallmark would make $390 million in ad revenue this year alone. By comparison, that $2 million is just another fake snowflake floating through a production set in Los Angeles. How does it feel knowing your favorite happy-ending, traditionalist Christmas movies are making money from your tears of joy? There’s really no benefit to watching this garbage unless the whole family is together and it’s the only appropriate, non-sports-related TV program that will appease everyone. It works great as white noise if you want to succumb to the mid-family gathering recliner hibernation (my personal favorite holiday activity). Let’s face it, guys. Hallmark owns Christmas, which means it owns a good deal of holiday sentiment that is tightly woven into these low-budget, conveyor belt “essence of Christmas” movies. But don’t let me get in the way of your two-month braindead Hallmark binge. Stephanie: I’ve been a romance writer for 25 years and a member of Romance Writers of America for the past 15. I usually don’t advertise this bit of info. It’s easier to keep silent than to put up with the bodice ripper and “Fifty Shades” jokes. But I love the genre because I’ve always been fascinated with how two people manage to find each other out of all the people in this world. (The world’s population is estimated at 7.7 billion people; Cincinnati’s is roughly 300,000). Admit it: You’re fascinated, too. Otherwise, you wouldn’t bother asking your friends how they met their significant others. No matter how jaded or cynical you are, you want to hear about your friends’ first meets because, if you’re single, it gives you hope that your other half is still out there, somewhere. Former high school sweethearts reuniting, friends becoming something more, someone being involved with the wrong person before they meet the right one … these situations happen in real life. I met my boyfriend of almost seven years through a missed connections ad I placed on Craigslist. But when those situations happen in a romance novel or a Hallmark movie? Suddenly, it’s somehow unbelievable, cliché and stupid. Never mind that, from a writer’s perspective, all genres are full of tropes and clichés. (Hello, Marvel Universe!) I’ve found that most people who make fun of the romance genre have never read a romance novel or watched a Hallmark movie. Since we’re 14 days into Hallmark Channel’s Countdown to Christmas, try a movie or two before you complain. Who knows? You might find — God
Jacob: There’s nothing that screams “I threw this together in five minutes” quite like a Hallmark Channel movie. If you’ve never seen one, spare yourself the headache. These films are laughably bad. Practically every Hallmark movie script follows the same template: it’s Christmas, and someone falls in love under outlandish circumstances. To paint a clearer picture, here’s a taste of some of Hallmark’s finest holiday masterpieces: – “Nine Lives of Christmas” — Some lonely dude adopts a cat. The cat befriends another cat that’s owned by some lady. Dude falls in love. Also, it’s Christmas. – “A Boyfriend for Christmas” — Some teenage girl asks Santa for a boyfriend. Ends up lonely for 20 years instead. One day, a stranger shows up at her doorstep claiming to be the man she wished for. Thanks for the punctuality, Santa. – “A Very Merry Mix-Up” — Some lady visits her fiancé’s family for Christmas and falls in love with her future brother-in-law. ‘Tis the season for weird love triangles. These plotlines are the “Sharknado” of rom-coms. The Hallmark Channel revels in made-for-TV absurdity, enticing hopeless romantics with the thought of finding love in the unlikeliest of places. And it’s a cute idea, save the cringeworthy nature of it all. But if I wanted to endure hours of bland stories with cookie-cutter characters, I’d revisit my high school English class. The Hallmark Channel prides itself on wholesome, family-friendly content, and I’ve got nothing against that. But in its quest to profit off low-budget flicks, Hallmark has only managed to recreate the same cheesy movie time and time again. Stick to greeting cards, Hallmark.
Page 10 fall in love under the mistletoe” plot lines (or lack thereof). But over time, I, too fell under the magic of cheap romance. I know they hire some of the cheesiest actors to tell these tales, but there’s something so nice about letting your brain turn off and allowing yourself to mindlessly follow an easy storyline with eye-catching actors. For example, “Royal New Year’s Eve” follows the story of an aspiring fashion designer who is commissioned to design a dress for a prince’s suspected future fiancé for New Year’s Eve. The catch? She falls in love with the prince. And I know what you’re thinking: “Anne, that’s the most predictable plot line yet.” It was, but with a splash of lavish costumes, fake snow and a love as sweet as candy canes, Hallmark completely captures my heart.
Anne: The weather is getting colder, the holiday lights are being draped onto trees and Hallmark Christmas movies are starting to play 24/7. In my opinion, that definitely makes this season the most wonderful time of the year. I must admit, I’m a relative newbie to the world of Hallmark cinematography. Last year, my parents and I launched a weekend tradition of sitting down together on Saturday afternoons to binge-watch whatever repeat Christmas movie is on TV. I started out as a skeptic of the overdone themes and the Top: Opinion Editor Sami Stewart and Editor-in-Chief Jacob Fisher, give their opinions on why Hallmark movies are a bland headache. WIKIPEDIA stereotypical “workaholic Bottom: Anne Simendinger, Social Media Assitant, and Stephanie Smith, Digital Editor, clapback on why meets a dashing man and they Hallmark movies are romantic and promote family togetherness.
