Bison beat Gophers for second straight time Kyle Roth Contributing Writer

INDEX

For the second year in a row, and the second time at Minnesota, the Bison football team entered victory formation as the clock wound down and heralded a signature win against a team from the Football Bowl Subdivision, defeating the Golden Gophers 37-24 in front of a crowd 48,802 strong at TCF Bank Stadium in Minneapolis.

“Coach outcoached me, their team outplayed us and they deserved to win the game,” Gophers head coach

Jerry Kill said, who falls to 1-3 in his first year with the team after Saturday. “I feel bad for our students. I feel bad for the state of Minnesota. I feel bad for our fans, and I feel bad for our kids.”

In and of itself, the game was largely controlled by the Bison despite earning only 40 more offensive yards and controlling the ball for three more minutes than their Minnesotan counterparts.

Strong performances on both sides of the ball predicated the victory, with the defense embodying the “bend, don't break” philosophy and the offense deliver-

ing one of the best passing performances from a Bison quarterback since Steve Walker took the snaps in 2007.

The star of the game, Minneapolis native Marcus Williams (one of 36 former Minnesotans on the Bison roster), scored a pair of defensive touchdowns at crucial points in the game to play a large role in the victory.

The first came as the clock ran out in the first half when safety Colten Heagle intercepted Gopher QB Marquies Gray, then lost the ball as he was brought down.

Williams picked it up, and

darted among players who thought the play had been over as Bison fans heralded his arrival into the endzone.

The second came near the end of the game as the Gophers sent in backup QB Max Shortell, who’d driven the field on the Bison in the previous drive. With just over two minutes to go, Shortell threw into coverage and Williams picked it off and floored it straight to the endzone, diving across the pylon to be dog-piled by a group that included as many football players as it did members of the Gold Star Marching Band.

As a group, the defense ex-

ecuted the game plan with finesse, holding Gray, who some believe has legitimate Heisman potential due to his rushing ability, to just 23 yards on 13 attempts. Gray had been averaging over 120 yards per game in three contests prior, which speaks volumes of the defense's consistency from last year to now. The defense also nabbed five sacks versus the Gophers’ zero, with 2.5 of them coming from senior end Coulter Boyer, whose performance was worthy of the Buchanan nomination he received, indicating the nations best defensive player at the FCS level. All in all, the

defense did what they needed to do to a T, and stifled the Gopher running game with a ferocious attack from the defensive front, and reaping the benefits of a bad quarterback’s going to the air.

To summarize, how ‘bout that Bison defense?

Elsewhere, perhaps the greater indications of the season to come can be drawn from the offensive side of the ball. Since 2008, the Bison have failed to achieve a truly effective passing game, yet sophomore QB Brock Jensen appeared to have Story Continued on Page 9

Renowned photographer visits NDSU Rylee Nelson Spectrum Staff On Thursday night, National Geographic photographer and motivational speaker Dewitt Jones spoke to students, faculty and community members at NDSU’s Festival Concert Hall. Jones presented his photography and personal experiences to encourage those in the audience to “celebrate what is right with the world.�

The program was organized by the College of Business and it was the first installment of the Thought Leader Series, sponsored by the first impact grant given by the NDSU Development Foundation.

‘‘

“It is not about being the best in the world but being the best for the world.�

-- Dewitt Jones Rylee Nelson/The Spectrum

Jones’ message focused on chasing dreams and being an individual, which he adds is what the world needs. “It is not about being the best in the world but being the best for the world,� Jones said.

Breathtaking images that Jones has taken throughout the world were shown in the background as he reflected on his experiences and life lessons, encouraging those present to find similar passions. “I want to know my life as well as my craft, and my craft as well as my life,�

Jones said.

Jones described how everything in life is just a matter of perspective. “The difference in a good frame and a great frame is a difference of millimeters not

Dewitt Jones spoke to students, staff and members of the community about embracing passions. Jones spoke as part of the College of Buisness’ thought leader series.

miles,� Jones said.

Associate Dean of the College of Business and event organizer Tim Peterson, said, “Being able to do this [event] means that we can impact students’ lives in such a way that they understand how to navigate in the white waters of life. Dewitt Jones has that message.�

Students from the College of Business as well as students from several other colleges attended the presentation. “[Jones] put so much into something so small. ‌ He makes me want to do more with my life,â€? Alyssa Rosman, a freshman majoring in business administration said of

the presentation.

The impact grant was given to Peterson and the College of Business after they proposed the Thought Leader Series over a year ago. The NDSU Development Foundation introduced the three-year grants as a way to show donors of NDSU the immediate impact of their donations.

Peterson’s intention is to bring major thought leaders to campus and to inspire students. “Since the very beginning it has been about impacting students,� Peterson said. “[The grant] was originally for three years but we want it to go for 100.�

Peterson welcomed students’ participation in the Thought Leader Series and served as an acting advisor to what he intended to be a student-run program.

From start to finish, students ran the program and got hands-on experience.

The program included business students and invited other majors to participate as well.

Students majoring in hospitality played a large role in the patron’s dinner before the presentation.

From deciding to host the dinner at the NDSU Alumni Center to booking a string quartet to play during dinner and the other details, hospitality students used their coursework to gain real-world experience.

Free tickets were given out to students at the NDSU Memorial Union and various other locations. Business students also made T-shirts to advertise the free tickets and the Thought Leader Series.

Peterson and his students already have future events scheduled for the Thought Leader Series. Next September, the College of Business is inviting Scott Shickler, an entrepreneur, author and speaker to come present on youth empowerment.

As far as other hopes for the future of the Thought Leader Series, Peterson is determined to find outside support from area businesses interested in helping sponsor the event. He is hoping that he can show with the first three years of the grant that this series is something that will impact students. He sees the impact grant as merely a starting point from which he can hopefully create a long lasting program.

Peterson, like Jones, hopes that he can help others to “celebrate what is right with the world.�

Successful campaign in Roosevelt Neighborhood Hannah Dillon News Reporter The fourth annual Good Neighbor Campaign kicked off at NDSU on Sept. 20.

NDSU student government, Office of Orientation and Student Success, Greek Life and the Roosevelt Neighborhood Association collaborated to organize this year’s event.

A group of students left the Memorial Union at 6 p.m. to venture into the surrounding Roosevelt Neighborhood and leave informational hangers on front doors with helpful tips on how to be a good neighbor.

The Good Neighbor Cam-

‘‘

“Whether you’re participating or not, it’s a good thing to go and get to know your neighbors.�

-- Aimee Sugden

paign was started to help with issues that were arising between college students and long-term residents of the neighborhood, as a lot of college students live in this area.

Tyler Leverington, executive commissioner of government relations and intercollegiate affairs, said, “In the Roosevelt Neighborhood area we have a really interesting mix of long-term residents and college students living in an intermingled way that they usually aren’t.�

The students are not the only ones who benefit from this campaign. Aimee Sugden, the executive commis-

sioner of public relations, said that the people they go out and visit in the neighborhood are appreciative and very nice, and that this campaign really helps diffuse tension. “It’s an opportunity for the NDSU community to kind of thank the residents for essentially hosting the community for the four or however many years each student is here,� Sugden said.

Some issues that are commonly talked about between the students and residents are parking, noise violations and snow removal.

Talking about these issues before they arise has proven to be effective in the past few years, which makes discussing them when they do happen less awkward for both parties. “The Good Neighbor Campaign is really just about going out and opening those lines of communication, just making sure that the long-term residents are comfortable talking to college students and vice versa; that way, if they have issues, it’s much easier to deal with,� Leverington said.

Matt Katzenmaier, president of Greek Life’s Interfraternity Council, has participated in the Good Neighbor Campaign since he was a freshman. He’s now a senior and this is his first year helping to plan the event. “It’s just been active involvement and keeping that open means of communication in the community,�

Katzenmaier said. “Whether you’re participating or not, it’s a good thing to go and get to know your neighbors,� Sugden said, stressing that even if you’re not part of the campaign, try to talk to your neighbors at any time to get to know them better because it’ll be beneficial to both of you in the future.

‘Sex + Money,’ series organizers come to campus Presentation exhibits worldwide impact of the sex trade Sabrina Emmel News Reporter One in four teenage girls have been subject to some form of sexual abuse, whether it is rape, prostitution, human trafficking or other things. On Friday, the Memorial Union Century Theater showed a film created by a group of young photojournalists on a mission to get the word out about the many forms of human trafficking and the horrifying effects they have

on victims.

Included in the video were interviews with not only survivors of the sex slave trade, but also the people who bought into it. Ex-pastors, businessmen and even pimps were interviewed to show the entire picture of what the sex industry entails.

The photojournalists who created the film are on a nationwide tour, showing the film in one church and one university in every state, trying to spread the word about

this growing problem in the United States.

They do not just show the movie and expect it to leave enough of an impression to create a movement; they also include a panel at the end of each viewing with important people from the community who explain the problem in more detail.

Three members of the community were at the panel on Friday, including one professor from NDSU. There was also a social worker from Bismarck who

also teaches about and supports the organizations that battle human sex trafficking in the United States. The final panelist was the founder of The God’s Child Project (one of the sponsors of the film).

Many of the questions asked had to do with the amount of human trafficking going on around our own home and in our community.

When asked if it is very common here in North Dakota, the presenters said that prostitution on the streets is

not so common, but they continued to tell a story about a cop in the West Fargo area who posed as an underage teenage girl on the internet. He posed for 90 days and received 24 hits on the site to meet up with him for sex.

Talking more about sex on the internet, the leader of the God’s Child Project said, “the number four search term for children who are seven years old in the United States is the word ‘porn.’�

The movie and the panel

discussion informed the audience that human trafficking and its many forms are not only problems in developing countries and slums, but also in our own towns and communities.

The young group of photojournalists who got together to make Sex + Money is one of many groups trying to spread awareness and make a change.

PhD offers a campus hair studio experience

Live Real Mentor program strives to break social norms Samantha Wickramasinghe Contributing Writer Alcohol and drug prevention programs play a vital role in providing a safe and secure place for students at NDSU. These programs help and assist students who find alcohol to be a major problem in their personal and academic lives. Surrounded by all these influential efforts, the Live Real Mentor program makes a significant impact by introducing actively involved faculty, staff and students who present themselves as mentors.

In fact, the Live Real Mentor program is a communal approach that connects directly with the NDSU community. Through mentors, the community gets to know about the effects of high risk drinking, prevention strategies and information regarding alcohol and other drug abuse problems. Thus, the Live Real Mentors get the opportunity to be socially active among the students as leaders and role models.

Adam Fuller, a senior majoring in marketing who is also a Live Real Mentor, has given public presentations about the messages that the Live Real Mentor program promotes, and he mentioned the individual obligations that a mentor has.

“When you are a Live Real Mentor, you are a role model, people kind of look into the way you behave and the decisions that you make,” Fuller said.

A part of the Live Real Mentor program is to educate students about the myths and misconceptions that college students may have on alcohol and drug usage.

Amy Thorne, a senior majoring in marketing and management and a Live

Ty Wilson Contributing Writer

Real Mentor, says that before coming to college, freshmen may have misunderstandings about college life and how college students use alcohol.

“It is hard to change the social norms and misconceptions of students,” Thorne said.

According to the Spring 2011 Live Real Mentor survey, “87 percent of Live Real Mentors have shared information about alcohol and other drugs with others, and 70.2 percent challenged stereotypes on alcohol and drug usage.”

Making statistics available for the public has been a major effort of the officials and administrators who constantly measure the impact that the program has made.

Erika Beseler-Thompson is the assistant director of the Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse Prevention. Thompson has been actively involved in the Live Real Mentor program.

For her, the most pleasurable experience of the program is being aware that educational information on high-risk alcohol usage is available for students, which makes an impact upon the NDSU community.

“All of this is about shaping the environment that we live in,” Beseler- Thompson said.

During the 2011 fall semester, there will be sessions that will educate the NDSU community, and students are encouraged to attend one-hour training programs, which are scheduled to be held on Oct. 13, Nov. 15 and Dec. 7.

A special marijuana-focused Live Real Mentor session will be held on Oct. 25 at 12 p.m. in the Prairie Room, Memorial Union.

“When people take care of their hair, they take care of themselves. You know that when they have pride in even their hair, they take pride in who they are as a person, and that’s what I love about working with hair.” Mary Klier, owner of the new Professional Hair Design Studio (PhD) in the lower level of the Memorial Union, said.

Receiving her barber stylist licensing from Moler Barber College, Klier has had her eyes set on NDSU for four years. “The second day of me being in school, I new this is where I wanted to be.”

“This place is for every gender, age and race. If I don’t have something that you want, I will get it.”

-- Mary Klier

Mary rented a chair from one of the other studios in town straight out of school.

Starting her own business from scratch, she did all of her bookings through her own business, but was still stationed in an already wellestablished hair studio.

After building her professional experience, when

Rylee Nelson/The Spectrum

Mary Klier of Phd hair salon styles NDSU student Chris Mattson’s hair at her new hair studio in the Memorial Union.

Klier heard that Calypso, the previous hair studio on campus, was going to be closing up, she knew it was her time.

Her husband, a pharmacy student here at NDSU, had just finished a pharmacy marketing class where they were required to write a business plan for a pharmacy.

“I took the outline from that plan and wrote the whole business plan for PhD,” Kleir said.

However, when she took

the business plan to the banks, she was turned down throughout every level of the process. For most, this would have been defeat, but for Klier it was a way to persevere and exemplify the effort she was willing to put in and the dedication to her career.

After working out arrangements with Calypso, the paper signing process was started the July 25 and completed on the 29. She now had only two weeks to get the studio ready for busi-

ness rather than an entire summer.

PhD was opened and business booming. According to the numbers that previous hair studios on campus had projected, Klier was surprised as to how many people were coming through the doors.

“People are pleased and the numbers show it,” Klier said. “I’m running a hair studio not a hair shop, or hair salon. We cater to everybody.”

She believes that college is a time when most people are finding out who they are, how they project themselves, and how they perfect that. She is here to help along the process of finding people’s unique style and becoming who they want to be, and letting the world know about it.

There are already plans to bring in new items and products, including nonpermanent and permanent hair colors for homecoming as well as bling-strings.

Klier will be offering updos for special occasions, and even straight-razor shaves for men once she brings in a barber stool or all-purpose chair. She is also working on making dreads, extensions and braiding available.

“This place is for every gender, age and race. If I don’t have something that you want, I will get it.” Klier said.

Klier says she loves when people take pride in who and where they are because when you take pride in these, you value them.

Companies focus on social responsibility Selling quality products that make a difference Cate Ekegren Spectrum Staff While most people have heard of the highly publicized TOMS Shoes by now, there are many other businesses taking on a similar mission that aren’t as well known.

TOMS Company is based on the “One for One” movement. TOMS founder Blake Mycoskie noticed a need for shoes in less fortunate countries and created a company that would match every pair of shoes purchased with a pair for a child in need.

Most recently, TOMS released a line of eyewear with the same “One for One” premise; for every pair of TOMS glasses or sunglasses purchased, the sight for one person in an impoverished country can be restored via medical treatment, prescription glasses or sight-saving surgery.

A lesser-known business, Bodo Blankets also follows the “One for One” movement.

For each blanket purchased, the company donates one to a person in need. Bodo Blankets prides itself on creating jobs in the United States, promoting charitable giving and conducting business in an environmentally friendly way.

Another socially responsible business is We Are One Heart. For every shirt purchased from We Are One Heart, one is given to a child in Haiti. The shirts available for purchase on the We Are One Heart website feature only one half of a heart, while the shirt donated features the other half of the heart. The We Are One Heart mission statement says, “Imagine mere clothing that could accomplish more than trend or self-satisfaction, but is also a step towards sharing our hearts

with the destitute and suffering of our world.”

This particular “One for One” business model so many new companies are using is more than just charity; it is much more powerful and sustainable.

Some other businesses making a difference with their products include Ethos Water and Krochet Kids.

Ethos Water helps to raise awareness for the global need for clean drinking water. For every bottle of Ethos Water purchased, five cents is donated to the Ethos Water Fund. More than $6 million has been donated so far, helping an estimated 420,000 people around the world.

Krochet Kids was founded by three guys who happened to enjoy crocheting. Krochet Kids provides more than material goods to those in need; they provide crochet lessons to people in developing countries as a way for

them to rise above poverty.

Crochet skills are taught to women in Northern Uganda who then use their new skills to crochet hats, scarves and gloves available for sale on the Krochet Kids website.

Each piece of merchandise comes with a hand-sewn tag with the signature of the woman who created the piece.

With their new jobs, the women of Northern Uganda receive a long-lasting and sustainable change; their new jobs and capacity training lead to better food, water, clothing and education for themselves and their families.

The products available online at www.krochetkids.org are not only stylish, but they are perfect for the cold winters. Products for all sustainable businesses mentioned can be purchased and learned more about on their respective websites.

Arts and Entertainment

A better class of remake David Fincher’s upcoming ‘Dragon Tattoo’ Charlie Crane Contributing Writer One of the most omnipresent works of fiction of the past decade is the late, great Stieg Larsen’s posthumously published “Millennium Trilogy” or more specifically its first installment, “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo.”

The three novels “Dragon Tattoo,” “Played With Fire” and “Hornets Nest” are international bestsellers, and the Swedish film adaptations starring Michael Nyqvist and Noomi Rapace only propelled Larsen’s stories to heights usually reserved for international super-franchises like “Harry Potter” and “Batman.”

‘‘

“Believe it or not, it only took two words to completely change my tune: David Fincher.”

“Dragon Tattoo,” which in its native Swedish was called “Men Who Hate Women,” tells the story of a journalist named Mikael Blomkvist.

Blomkvist is contracted to investigate the decade-old

disappearance of a young Swedish woman. Every year on her birthday, her uncle receives a pressed flower, presumably from her killer as a taunt to drive him into madness.

The story is also concerned with the trials and tribulations of Goth hacker and investigator Lisbeth Salander, the “Girl” from the story’s title who eventually joins Blomkvist on his quest.

I thoroughly enjoyed the Swedish films directed by Niels Arden Oplev and Daniel Alfredson, and when I heard the news that Hollywood was making the move to import Larsen’s juggernaut I was actually pretty ticked off.

Hollywood had just recently offered up a hollow remake of the refreshing and terrifying Swedish vampire flick “Let the Right One In,” and the idea that another Swedish success was going to be sucked dry to placate a wider American audience with an aversion to subtitles just annoyed me.

Why did we need an American voice for such a wholly Swedish story, especially when the Swedish adaptations were so well produced and received by the international film community?

Believe it or not, it only took two words to completely change my tune: David Fincher. If that name

doesn’t ring any bells, Fincher is the director of some of the best American films from the past twenty years, including but not limited to “Fight Club,” “Zodiac,” and most recently, the Oscar-winning “The Social Network.”

I went from completely hating the idea of an American “Dragon Tattoo” to being fairly excited.

My initial concern was predicated on the assumption that Columbia was going to hand the film to a director that would simply go through the motions, giving us an inferior take on the story and characters.

Instead, they gave it to Fincher. If there ever was a filmmaker who would be able to find an entirely new way to tell such a familiar story, it is Fincher.

Fincher’s films are spiritual cousins to Larsen’s books, both focusing on social outcasts, grizzly murder, conspiracy, and both utilizing a brooding sense of darkness and unbearable tension.

It also helped that he assembled a typically all-star cast including Daniel Craig, Christopher Plummer, and newcomer Rooney Mara, and brought along Oscar winners Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross to construct what will probably be yet another astounding score.

I found my excitement turn to frothing desire after

seeing the first trailer. The brilliance of the trailer is in its editing and content as it essentially acts as a microcosm of what the final film will be. It made no apologies, showing shot by shot the scenes and events from the entire film, with no spoiler warning provided. It basically acknowledged that this is a story most of us know, but left it vague enough for those still ignorant or curious about it.

Since we presumably know the story, it showed me at least why I should want to see “Dragon Tattoo” distilled through the mind of David Fincher. It looks completely different from the Swedish originals, and I say that as a compliment.

Just recently, an extended trailer for the film was released setting up the story, and showing off performances by its cast. While cementing my perception of the film, it did reaffirm one of my initial concerns that Rooney Mara wouldn’t be up to the task of taking on the role of Lisbeth Salander.

Rapace owned the role for three films, giving us the most iconic female film performance. Ever. Those are some huge shoes to fill, and I hope that Mara succeeds. I really want to like this movie.

The film is scheduled to hit theaters on Dec. 21.

Great for a date, or hungry and up late Ryan Buetow Contributing Writer If you haven’t been to Kroll’s Diner yet, I’m sure you have seen it.

Kroll’s Diner, right next to the Walmart on 45th Street, boasts home-style German and American food. Walking through the front door is like taking a time machine back to the ‘50s, the restaurant nailing an authentic diner feel. The service is great throughout the day, but it can get a bit busy at night, especially on Mondays when there are buy-one, get-one shakes.

‘‘

“The shakes along with the knoephla soup are amazing and so filling that you will be saying ‘Uff da’ when finished.”

John Schneider, a senior in marketing, is a fan of the “Shaky Mondays” deal, saying, “I think it is great!

Their shakes are good, two shakes for the price of one is a good deal and it is fun going there with a bunch of your friends to take advantage of that deal.” There are a wide variety of shake

and malt flavors; my personal favorite is the brownie.

The shakes along with the knoephla soup are amazing and so filling that you will be saying “Uffda” when finished. They also have a great variety of burgers, sandwiches and daily lunch specials that make it financially reasonable to go grab lunch with a friend and still get a real burger. Michael Schenfisch, a 5th-year senior in business, believes Kroll’s Diner is “great for students who are looking for that home-cooked, great quality meal but are still on a budget.”

Derek Anderson, a senior in pre-physical therapy, said, “I like the atmosphere and the ‘50s diner feel. The shakes are to die for and there is all-around good, friendly service.

Kroll’s is definitely one of my favorite places to eat in the Fargo-Moorhead area.”

Next time you are making a trip to Walmart, hungry for a home-style meal, or just craving some great shakes, stop by Kroll’s Diner. Kroll’s has a homestyle feel that is unique to the area and I would definitely recommend it. If you haven’t been there you should sit down and eat, and if you have been there you know what I’m talking about.

Test prep tips

Christmas is saved

‘Star Wars: The Old Republic’ launches Things to consider before exam day Dec. 20 a good chance you will have hours of sleep. This is not Andrew Tran Steven Strom Staff Writer I really, really hope you didn't have plans for this Christmas; otherwise you'll have to notify your family that Bioware and EA Games have officially changed them.

Last Saturday, the Bioware community website announced that this year's most highly anticipated (and reportedly expensive) massively multiplayer online game (MMO) will officially launch Dec. 20. That's less than a week before Santa is scheduled to bring you that hobbyhorse you've always wanted. Wow, maybe I am just getting old.

“Star Wars: The Old Republic,” based on the popular “Knights of the Old Republic” franchise, has

been building hype for quite a long time (first announced in October 2008). So long, in fact, that EA had to announce that they were artificially limiting the number of copies -- both digital and physical -- that will be available at launch. Presumably this is to limit the server strain that plagues so many fledgling MMOs. As of right now, the only way to ensure a copy on day one is by preordering, but even those are in limited quantity.

Pre-ordering shouldn't be a problem for most fans, though. Those who preorder any version of the game will receive early game access to the servers before those that wait for Dec. 20.

However, a word of warning to those that want early access; neither Bioware nor EA have announced just how early you can access the

@

game. It could be a day, a week, a month or an hour as far as anyone knows at this point. Furthermore, early adopters should bear in mind that the game will come with the standard subscription model used by “World of Warcraft.” This means that after your first month of game time, you will have to pay to continue playing. This probably wouldn't be a big deal about five years ago, but with just about every other MMO on the market going free-to-play, a modicum of patience may be rewarded.

Otherwise, have fun and enjoy knowing the longawaited release date of what is sure to be a blockbuster holiday hit. This should give you plenty of time to notify your friends and family that you won't be seeing them for a while.

Contributing Writer When a test for any class comes around it is important to be prepared, but the real question is when is one actually prepared. Keeping two pencils handy, studying a day before the exam and keeping a spare change of underwear are obvious fundamentals, but how else can you prepare?

Probably one of the most important things to remember is a jacket and layered clothing. While the school seems to do a good job of keeping the environment at a comfortable temperature, the school is in Fargo, the bipolar weather city. Because of this, hot and cold can come at anytime so dressing appropriately can help during a test.

Keeping comfortable during a test also means eating right. This may seem like a simple task but there is one important rule: Do not eat exactly eight hours before the test. Six hours is fine, 10 hours is fine, but eight hours is to be avoided. Eight hours is the approximate time necessary for digestion, which means that when you start taking the test, there is also

to use the bathroom--not the best feeling during an exam.

While you can time your eating habits, you can't control what other people do to make you day miserable.

Take for example someone who uses a large amount of perfume or strong deodorant. What you smell can strongly affect your ability to take an exam. Unfortunately there are not to many ways to get around this. One way is to simply (and politely) move away. Another way is to eliminate the smell. Vapor rub works very well for this.

Vapor rub contains menthol, an organic compound capable of numbing the area that it is applied to. This means inhaling vapor rub will numb out the nose and render it unable to smell certain odors. While this does not always work for every person and may also fail depending on the odor, it is worth a try if it ever becomes a problem. Besides, having some vapor rub on hand can really help during a cold day. We live in Fargo, so just consider it.

Now with all those factors out of the way, there is just one left to consider: sleep. It sounds simple and obvious, but you should try for eight

just about the brain; letting the brain get rested is the main point of sleep, but the brain only needs a few hours to organize itself and function well. The point of getting a full night's worth of sleep is actually for the body's sake.

Without enough sleep, the body suffers from a decrease in red blood cells. These red blood cells carry oxygen, and without enough red blood cells the body becomes oxygen deprived and is unable to carry out the basic operations for producing more energy. This in turn means that the brain is not getting all the oxygen it needs to fully function even if there is nothing wrong with it. In short, there is no reason not to try and get eight hours of sleep because every aspect of sleep helps the brain.

No, an “all-nighter” is not a good excuse for sleep deprivation. If you studied beforehand you wouldn't need an “all-nighter.” Karma?

Proper test habits become routine after a while, but never forget that even if you come prepared to take the test, you might not be ready.

Do you tend to notice the opposite sex more if you can tell they put effort into their appearance?

Alysia Larson Staff Writer He said: “Yes because it’s pretty easy to tell if someone puts time into their appearance than if someone didn’t, but I don’t necessarily notice the little details.” - Brady Meyers, a senior majoring in accounting.

She said: “I notice it because I’m so used to guys wearing athletic wear that when I see guys dressed up, it stands out.” - Jenna Prien, a senior majoring in elementary education.

The weather getting colder and football in full swing marks the beginning of fall.

It also marks the beginning of Oscar contenders being released. Last week saw the release of “Drive,” and this week brings the release of “Moneyball.”

Starring Brad Pitt, “Moneyball” follows the story of the Oakland Athletics baseball team, and Billy Beane’s (Pitt) attempt to put together a team on a budget by employing computer-generated analysis to draft his players.

Some of you may be thinking, “I hate baseball,” or, “Why would I want to see a movie about a bunch of stat geeks?” With a screenplay from Aaron Sorkin (“The Social Network”), this film has so much more to offer than what originally meets the eye.

Pitt does a believable job portraying Beane as a man sick of losing when it counts to teams with higher payrolls. He sticks his neck on the line for this “moneyball” idea and does whatever it takes to make it happen,

even though the rest of America is laughing at him.

Beane is also struggling with past demons from his failed playing days, and it all combines to be a compelling role for Pitt.

The real surprise of the film though is Jonah Hill as Peter Brand, Bean’s righthand man who comes up with the idea for “moneyball.” Known more for his R-rated comedies, Hill actually comes across as believable while playing a stats geek graduate from Yale. His demeanor throughout keeps the film grounded, adding some comedic aspects. His scenes with Pitt are some of the best in the movie. It will be interesting to see if this is a one-time deal or if Hill will continue experimenting with more serious roles. If “Moneyball” is any indication, he may be on to something.

While Pitt and Hill play standout roles, an unusually strong Phillip Seymour Hoffman appears as A’s coach Art Howe. Hoffman gives a solid performance in his limited role as Howe. His conflict and grudge with Beane add to the controversy within film.

8:00

You do not have to be a fan of baseball to enjoy this film, but if you are a baseball fan, you will have a different appreciation for the movie. It is interesting to see the behindthe-scenes action of day-today goings on of Major League general managers: trades, scout meetings, and talking with agents over free agents. All the things you don’t think about that go on behind closed doors are an intriguing experience.

Also keeping the film grounded is Beane’s relationship with his daughter, which fills out the character by adding non-baseball elements to his life. The touching moments between the two add needed substance and heart to the film -which is implemented perfectly along with the baseball scenes. The song played by Beane's daughter (Lenka’s “The Show”) fits amazingly into the theme of the movie.

This is a great movie, and with a 94 percent fresh rating at Rotten Tomatoes, it is a movie for not only baseball fans but also movie fans in general. I would not be surprised at all if this is a contender come February.

up for an interview or another reason that requires a more put together look, such as a date, it’s because they want to impress. It is true that some men are more fashionably minded and do like to look nice for more than just an occasion that requires it, but women usually dress to make themselves feel good or to impress other women.

To be the cause for jealousy in other women usually can spur a girl to dress up and spend more time on her appearance. But women do dress up for men as well, especially when they are interested in a particular man.

Makeupandbeauty.com also says that “men are more visual so seeing a girl dressed up does help to impress at times and women are more emotional so they will probably be more attached to a certain scent or shirt that a male wore on the first date.”

different from day to day but the reasoning behind it is usually a bit off, such as thinking women got more sleep the previous night than she did the other day.

Of course some men do realize the actual reason that MAC products work better for you than Maybelline products, but most men can’t tell if you are wearing a brown eye shadow over a gold one.

According to yelp.com, women notice the reason men look different because men generally wear the same type of style everyday. So when a man dresses up more, girls tend to notice.

Women usually know why though because they man may be wearing cologne, have a tie on, styled his hair, or have leather shoes on.

According to makeupandbeauty.com the reason behind dressing up or looking nice varies.

Alysia Larson Staff Writer Dear Alysia,

I recently found out that my boyfriend cheated on me with my best friend. I have no idea how to react. They both hurt me in a way that I never thought they would. I want to tell them to get out of my life, but that means losing two people who mean the world to me. What should I do?

Dear Betrayed Heart, First, I am so sorry this happened to you. Cheating is one of the worst things that can happen in a relationship in my opinion. There is really no quick fix to these types of things. When it comes to your heart, it’s usually always messy.

I would say you should first work to see if you could forgive them. They can’t be in your life if you can’t forgive. It will always be awkward and filled with tension.

I also think this will be good for you because it will help you to not remain bitter.

The next thing would be to talk to them. Are they showing remorse or not? Because if they are planning to get together then I don’t think it

would be a good idea to remain friends with them. It would be too difficult for you to have to see them together all the time. If they are showing remorse and want to be able to be in your life then make sure they know you want that too, but it will take awhile to have a good relationship again.

Trust is key in any relationship and you’ve just lost that for both of them. Make sure they realize that they will have to work to gain your trust again.

But even through all of this. You have to look out for your own heart. Don’t forgive when you aren’t ready because you want to be a nice person, but don’t hold a grudge forever because it will just turn you into a bit-

ter person.

You have to make sure that you do what’s best for you. If that means that right now you shouldn’t have them in your life even though you don’t want to lose the relationships, than you can’t have them in your life.

If they sincerely do want to still be in your life then they will understand. Don’t let anyone pressure you or make you feel bad for a decision that you know is right for you. Be strong.

You didn’t deserve this so don’t let anybody make you feel that way, including yourself.

Yours, Alysia

Opinion Do ask, do tell

BACK TO BACK Two views on the changes with Facebook Jaime Jarmin Opinion Editor

Jaime Jarmin Opinion Editor Exactly one week ago the U.S. military changed forever. The 17-year-old policy “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell,” which restricted the chance for lesbians and gays to openly serve in the military, was officially repealed.

The repeal of DADT not only changed the U.S. military, but it was life changing for 21-year-old U.S. airman Randy Phillips. Phillips has been using the Internet as a way to anonymously document his journey about life as a gay soldier in the military. The day that DADT’s repeal came into effect, Phillips unveiled his identity about being gay to not only the world but also to his father over the phone, live on YouTube.

Enlisted members in the military deal with enough stress, but for the U.S. government to have a policy which impeded “closeted” gay soldiers to serve and forced many of them to lie about their true identity only heightened their tension.

Our country was formed around the ideals that all men are created equal. The fact that the United States even had a policy like “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” is ludicrous.

It completely mocked what our country boasts it stands for: freedom and equality.

The moment that changed the way the military operates began last December when President Obama officially signed the repeal for DADT. “This law I’m about to sign will strengthen our national security and uphold the ideals that our fighting men and women risk their lives to defend,” Obama said. Finally, after four presidency terms, we have a President who understands the importance of freedom of expression.

During Obama’s speech last December, he told a story of a secretly gay soldier during World War II who saved the life of a fellow soldier. Four decades later, these soldiers became reunited and the truth came out. The reaction: the soldier who was saved that day didn’t care. “He knew what had kept him alive, what made it possible for him to come home and start a family, and live the rest of his life. It was his friend,” Obama said.

It doesn’t matter whether or not your morals fall in line with this repeal. Even if you don’t agree with gay people, it doesn’t give you a free pass to ridicule those who are. Instead, why not show them the respect you’d want to receive if someone didn’t agree with you? Or better yet, love them regardless of their sexual orientation.

At the GOP debate last Thursday, a soldier named Stephen Hill appeared on the screen to ask former Senator Rick Santorum a question. He stated he had to lie about being gay because he feared of losing his job.

“My question is, under one of your presidencies, do you intend to circumvent the progress that’s been made for gay and lesbian soldiers in the military?” Hill said.

The crowd immediately began to boo the soldier.

All Stephen Hill deserved was some respect. If Rick Santorum ends up in office, let’s hope he doesn’t encourage “boos” to a man willing to sacrifice his life for our freedom.

I’m really sick of people writing about how difficult their lives have become due to the recent changes made to Facebook. This extremely popular social networking site has made enemies with their users by simply changing its interface.

When I first found out about these changes, it was from status updates from my Facebook friends, and a lot of them were incredibly unhappy.

My Facebook homepage was littered with posts such as, “FACEBOOK!!! What are you doing?! You change your mind more than a 3 yr old!” or “SO for the past week or so eveyone has be saying facebook is chaning and I have been out of the loop but today mine changed and I get what you were all talking about and just let me say I AGREE!” As you can see, these changes have been affecting not only these peoples’ moods, but also their grammar

abilities. I’m sure their fingers are so full of angst while typing that they don’t even recognize the red squiggly lines underneath their misspelled words.

First of all, it’s not like we’re paying for this service; unless you’re addicted one of those Facebook games that suck away not only your time but also your money.

Second, the “Ticker” on the righthand side of everyone’s homepage is just a glorified “Most Recent” newsfeed. The only difference now is that it’s extremely up-to-date on what your friends’ recent activity is.

Finally, if you want your privacy to be respected, don’t have a Facebook. For instance, once you upload pictures onto Facebook, you give up your rights to those photographs to Facebook.

I think the bottom line is clear: those of you complaining about the changes made to Facebook probably won’t stop using it. It’s just an excuse to update your status like a negative Nancy or Ned.

Rylee Nelson Spectrum Staff Facebook’s recent changes have left me thoroughly concerned. The new ticker and the timeline are a little too close for comfort. Facebook has been taking things to the next level repeatedly since its beginning, unprompted by the Facebook community. Since the first change, I have been finding issues with this constant changing of what is already functioning. In the past year, it seems that Facebook has increased the number of changes.

Right when I settle into a new layout, they change it up.

The only change that I have seen a widespread movement to support was a dislike button, which I may remind you never came to fruition.

Now I have the ability to know someone’s online story, and in a twitter-esque way I will know what movie, song or video you are currently immersed in, and I have the

ability to join in.

Now I don’t even need to talk to you to know what you are doing. In fact I don’t need to talk to you at all. If I want to know your history, I will check your timeline. If I want to know what you are doing, I will just check your ticker. And if I want to talk to you, I will just Facebook you.

I can sit back and keep tabs on all my friends and family without even having to go outside. Anyone else a little creeped out by this? I don’t like the direction we are headed with this new Facebook layout. We are going to lose our interpersonal skills altogether. My privacy and my future social abilities are at risk with this new Facebook layout, and I am thinking this time Facebook has crossed the line.

Freshmen as entertainment Have all you want Anne Debner Contributing Writer It has been fun returning to NDSU this fall as a sophomore, to come back a class above the freshmen. It is nice to be released from that label which upperclassmen assign to first-year students and fill with such shame that it makes you embarrassed to hold it.

It is my turn to not be the source of entertainment but to be entertained. I can now laugh at all the “freshman moves” such as walking around with a map or going the long way around because they are ignorant of the shortcuts. It is my turn to be on the other side, right?

One main benefit returning as a sophomore is that I know where everything is on campus and I do not have to wander around like a little lost puppy. Campus tours to find your classes? Nah, not for me. I have campus figured out, and even if I don’t know where one of my classes is located, chances are I’ll be able to find it

pretty quick.

But somehow that didn’t quite work this time around.

For one of my classes, I ended up going to the wrong end of campus, to the wrong building and didn’t realize it until I arrived there. I actually had to put my bag down, pull out my planner, and look at the campus map to find out where I was supposed to be. What a freshman moment! Needless to say I was not very happy with myself.

Another benefit of not being a freshman: knowing all the shortcuts on campus and all the secret passages through the buildings. That didn’t work so well either.

One day after class, I tried to outsmart the crowd and find a quick exit from Minard. Not such a brilliant idea when there is construction going on. Instead of a quick exit, it turned into a long tour of Minard because doors that used to be there were not, and, where there were once walls, doors now appeared.

It was like wondering through a rat’s maze with so

many twists and turns I was surprised I didn’t end up in wonderland. I was eventually led to an exit; the very same one I was trying to avoid. However, the good news was that now it was clear because the crowd had left.

So why do we make fun of freshman and all of their “freshman” moves? As I said earlier, we feel as if it is our turn to be on the other side, our turn to not be on stage. We continue the longstanding tradition of mocking freshman for entertainment when the truth is, we were just like them only a few years ago, and, as in my case, we sometimes still are.

This is one reason why I became a resident assistant.

I wanted to break the mold, to help those lost and bewildered freshmen. I have joined a new age-old tradition to help those whom I once was, and sometimes still am.

The contraception mandate A violation of conscience rights

Ryan LaPlante Contributing Writer

The human conscience, that guiding force within the person directing the discernment of right and wrong, is under another.

This one comes in the form of new U.S. Government guidelines regarding healthcare for women.

The Department of Health and Human Services has issued new standards, which require all new health insurance policies to provide contraception methods and procedures without charging any co-payment.

These standards effectively violate the conscience rights of individuals and institutions by forcing them to provide an ethically debatable service, whether their moral principles approve of it or not.

Because many people form their conscience under certain religious guidelines, conscience rights are connected to religious rights, Jaime is a sophomore ma- which are directly protected joring in English education. by the First Amendment of

the U.S. Constitution.

It’s a fact: artificial birth control conflicts with the core teachings of numerous religions and the people who profess them. Many institutions promoted and run by these religious entities provide health insurance and care to people of every racial, national and ideological background. Therefore, they do not fall under the very constricted exceptions to this mandate. Hence, such institutions cannot comply with government standards without compromising their own belief systems.

This produces a serious dilemma, for by these regulations, U.S. Health and Human Services is claiming power over the consciences of private citizens and organizations.

What if a business owner believes that contraception is wrong and that he cannot contribute to its use by providing insurance for his employees that pay for it? He must comply or face the consequences. Hypothetically assuming all insurance companies complied with these standards, consumers would be compelled to pay their premiums to organizations which support contraception, indirectly forcing them to contribute to a

cause they may condemn.

Health and Human Services attempts to justify this intrusion on conscience rights by classifying contraception as “preventative healthcare” as if it were something necessary for women’s health.

While there may be instances where it may be necessary for a woman to avoid becoming pregnant, the use of artificial contraception is not essential to this purpose.

This can also be accomplished by certain sexual abstinence practices without any use of artificial birth control. Therefore, the use of contraception is a matter of personal preference and not of medical necessity. It is not a critical service that the government has any reason to require an insurance provider to offer, as it would prenatal care or cancer screening.

In light of these considerations, it is easily seen that U.S. Health and Human Services’ Required Health Plan “Coverage Guidelines” is an unjust suspension of the religious and conscience rights of American individuals and organizations.

You may have also experienced a time when you decided that you disliked someone after seeing him or her for the first time. You try to dismiss your feeling as unreasonable, but it doesn’t go away. Eventually you discovered that you were right about the person.

Mirror neurons appear to be an important feedback system providing rapid information that may sometimes be vital for our safety and protection. The presence of these neurons probably explains why decisions at interviews are usually made in just a few seconds after the interview begins.

Clearly the science of mirror neurons is both the science of “chemistry” and the science of “intuition.” Before information can reach the prefrontal lobe in the brain to be analyzed and acted upon, mirror neurons apparently act as a built-in short circuit, giving us the answer right away.

By understanding the function of mirror neurons, do you see the opportunity to harness its power? We can use the power of mirror neurons to get whatever desired change or attitude we want from anyone in a very short time.

All you need to do is to act towards another in direct relation to how you want them to act towards you.

Physiologically, they cannot help but to mirror you. If you want to attract happy, kind and compassionate people, all you need to do is act that way.

Be the change you want to see. We are naturally wired to “retaliate” to give what we get. You can have all you want if you just treat people how you want them to treat you.

One of the most fascinating revelations in the field of neuroscience recently has been the discovery of “mirror neurons” in the brain.

Prominent neuroscientist Vilayanur Subramanian Ramachandran and his team discovered them in 1992.

Mirror neurons are specialized neurons that have been found to fire when we are observing the action of someone else; in the same way they fire when we are doing the action ourselves.

Because of these neurons we are able to improve our performance by watching other people perform or even by visualizing good performance. Of even greater interest to me is that mirror neurons also enable us to sense, experience and reflect the feelings of people we are intently observing.

If you have ever cried helplessly watching a movie even though you knew the people were just acting, or if you have ever gone wild at a football game in a way that you would not likely behave when you are alone, you are under the influence of mirror neurons.

It could also be that mirror neurons are able to mysteriously fire at even a sub-awareness level. When you somehow immediately “connect” with someone or are entranced by a “love at first sight” experience, it could be because of an aligning and bridging of Courtney is a graduate mirror neurons across student in the cereal scibrains. ences department.

What a weekend it was

Travis Jones Sports Editor After what seemed to be an endless week that included numerous homework assignments and three tests, Friday evening finally came and my brother, a friend and I headed east on I-94 enroute for Minneapolis.

As we continued down the interstate, we noticed a stampede of Bison fans heading east as well. Each vehicle was appropriately met with horns out of our car windows, and the gesture was returned.

Once in the metro-area, we headed downtown to The Depot for the Bison Block Party. It seemed as though downtown had been taken over by North Dakota and NDSU fans. A lot of green and yellow littered the streets and the sounds coming from the block party were definitely familiar to any North Dakotan. The dueling pianos were keeping the place lively and with yell leaders and Bison Ambassadors leading the way, it was a good time.

Saturday morning rolled around and I’ve never seen Twitter and Facebook so filled with Bison posts; it was a sight that I could definitely get used to.

We drove to the University of Minnesota’s campus,

which is a beautiful college campus, to drop our car off and then it was off to the fairgrounds for tailgating.

I couldn’t tell if there were more Bison or Gopher fans tailgating, but either way it was a great showing for NDSU. Soon we arrived at TCF Bank Stadium, and I was instantly in love. Don’t get me wrong; it’s no Fargodome, but they have a spectacular venue in Minnesota.

First we headed to the sixth floor of the Bank and check out the press box, or otherwise known as the press palace. We then went to field level and took a walk around the playing field. I’m certain that was the slowest I have ever walked in my life; it almost took a bull dozer to push me off the field.

We got up to the box and it was time for the game.

Media, fans and players were not disappointed with the product on the field. This was a win that set us in stone as one of the top FCS programs in the country, and a team that isn’t scared of a challenge, no matter what the FBS school is.

We headed back to Fargo bright and early on Sunday so that I could get the issue ready to print. It was a heck of a weekend to be a Bison, and with this week being homecoming it can only get better. I wouldn’t bet on us playing Minnesota in the near future, however. I think they might be tired of us after 2007 and now this.

what could be an early coming-out party as he threw for 196 yards on 16-21 passing, shredding the Gophers in several key third-down situations and maintaining a professional's composure throughout.

Jensen even earned praises from the opposing defense.

“NDSU's a great team,” Gopher safety Kim Royston said. “Their quarterback's a good player. But it comes down to what we do. Whatever they got, we gave to 'em, as far as I'm concerned.” Sophomore Ryan Smith was a big help, taking four catches for 74 yards in several such clutch situations, including a classic dissection of triple coverage that made for a highlightreel play.

All in all, the offense was 6/9 on third down conversion, a notable improvement over what was a weakness of last year's team. Though three of those first downs came from the first drive as Gopher penalties kept the ball moving forward, the offense's method of execution and crispness in so doing were commendable.

“Our players had a great deal of confidence coming in,” Bison Head Coach Craig Bohl said, whose teams are now 5-3 versus competition from an FBS conference, including 2-1 against the Big Ten and 1-0 versus the Big 12. “If we played well, we'd win.”

The game was a capstone to an event-filled weekend in Gopher Country, starting

with a dueling pianos show at the Depot at the Renaissance Hotel in Minneapolis.

On Saturday, thousands of Bison fans turned out for the Alumni Association's tailgate party, with tailgate rigs, buses, sedans, pickups, and everything else associated with the West Lot found in the Giraffe Lot of the Minnesota state fairgrounds. Despite the 200-miles separating Bison fans from their traditional home on Saturdays, the atmosphere in their adopted home in eastern Minneapolis-St. Paul was every bit as comfortable as those late fall days in Fargo.

Those fans contributed to an atmosphere that is estimated to have been at least one-quarter Bison fans, and as the team took the victory formation in the waning seconds of the fourth quarter to seal the win, those fans grew to a roar to herald another feather in this program's cap.

Top to bottom, only one word can describe the team after last night's win, and it's one that hasn't been heard in Bison Nation for some time: clutch. Driven by emotion, determination, or something else entirely, the team simply wanted it more, and in a performance devastating to supporters of the Maroon and Gold, the Bison broke the 'Bank.
