DREAM
Family-owned Bao Vietnamese Kitchen offers authentic, homemade dishes
LSU’s chemistry department has developed technology for sampling fingerprints found at crime scenes. The Infrared Laser Ablation Vacuum System uses an invisible laser to collect small samples of fingerprints. The molecules are sucked through a filter and stored until transported to a forensics lab for analysis. University researcher Fabrizio Donnarumma has worked with many other researchers for years to create a system that can accurately capture samples without damaging evidence. “In the past 100 years, people have been using tape and swabs to sample anything from crime scenes. And we asked ourselves, can you do anything better than that?” Donnarumma said. Typically at crime scenes, forensic analysts will swab
BY MYIA HAMBRICK @MyiaChristine For 30-year-old Chau Huynh, Bao Vietnamese Kitchen is a childhood dream come true. “Ever since I was little, I dreamed of owning a restaurant where I can serve my mom’s Vietnamese food,” Huynh said. Huynh and her family immigrated to America from Vietnam when she was 9 years old. Sitting in her restaurant as music softly plays in the background, she recounts how she thought the move was a vacation at first. Huynh now considers Baton Rouge her home, and met her husband through a local church in the city. “We were childhood friends and just ended up getting married,” she said with a laugh. The food at Bao is inspired by
Huynh’s mother, who didn’t know how to cook when she arrived in the states but quickly learned how because Huynh’s father needed her to. The culture in Vietnam is centered around family, Huynh said, so her mother never needed to learn how to cook there because Huynh’s grandmother would usually cook. Vietnamese food is relatively healthy, but unique and representative of the land it comes from, she said. “Vietnamese food has a balance between the sweet and sour, so with almost every dish you can notice the balance between both,” Huynh said. For example, fish sauce, a staple in southeast Asian cuisine,

LSU senior crowned Miss Louisiana, will compete for Miss America BY JBRIAAN JOHNSON @JBriaan_Johnson Mass communication senior Laryssa Bonacquisti accomplished a lifelong dream and honored her grandmother’s legacy when she was crowned the new Miss Louisiana on June 24 in Monroe, Louisiana. Bonacquisti, who is also a reporter for Tiger TV, has been participating in pageants since she was a child, she said. “Truthfully, this opportunity is one that I’ve dreamed of for as long as I could remember,” Bonacquisti said. “Growing up as part of this organization, you always dream of winning the state title. The fact that I had an opportunity to do so, and now … competing in Miss America, is something beyond my wildest dreams.” Throughout the competition, Bonacquisti reigned victorious in the talent and swimsuit preliminaries prior to winning the
crown. Bonacquisti’s mother taught her ventriloquism when she was 6 years old, she said. In her act that included singing and yodeling, Bonacquisti featured her two puppets: Lucky and Lucy. “She [my mother] taught me the basics and I picked it up really fast, just like some people do with other activities that they’re meant for,” Bonacquisti said. “It’s been one of the greatest blessings. It’s a different, unique talent, but it’s also one that appeals to people of all ages.” Upon winning the pageant, Bonacquisti was overcome with joy and excitement. The most gratifying takeaway from her victory was her platform gaining recognition, she said. Bonacquisti advocates for awareness of pancreatic cancer, a disease her grandmother battled for seven months. Her strong bond with her grandmother serves as an immense motivational tool in her
pageants, as well as her everyday life, she said. “She’s my motivation,” Bonacquisti said. “Her life represents everything I want to be.” As someone who has participated in pageants throughout her life, Bonacquisti has learned a variety of skills that will help her down her career path and with her time left at the University. “I’ve met people and learned how to speak with individuals,” Bonacquisti said. “I know how to ask people questions, I know how to keep conversations going, and I know how to put together great social media posts, which sounds crazy but that is relevant in everyday of our lives right now.” As the new Miss Louisiana, Bonacquisti will represent the state in the Miss America pageant in Atlantic City, New Jersey this September. With this honor, Bonacquisti knows the weight of the responsibility with the
opportunity before her. “I’m very aware of the responsibility and what’s
coming next,” Bonacquisti said. “It’s coming really fast, and I need to be ready for it.”

Some of the most popular dishes Bao serves are chicken wings, pho and the vermicelli bowl. The vermicelli bowl is a bowl with rice noodles, shredded lettuce, cucumber, bean sprouts, peanuts, herbs, fish sauce and a choice of chicken or shrimp. Bao is also known for its drinks and desserts, such as the che ba mau, or three color dessert. It consists of mung beans, kidney beans, navy beans, green jelly and coconut milk. Huynh’s mother is the head chef at the restaurant and Huynh’s husband, Tam Nguyen, helps her run the restaurant. He says the hardest part about the new business is managing the staff, but the duo is committed to
Wednesday, July 5, 2017 excellence. “One of the best compliments we got was when a person came in when we first opened, and then again a few weeks later, and they said that our service and food had improved since their first visit,” Huynh said. The couple has high hopes for the future, including obtaining their liquor license and making more use of their courtyard as the weather cools. They have no regrets and are confident that their restaurant can thrive in its present location, Huynh said. “We realize that two previous restaurants were located here and they didn’t do too well, but we believe we can bring something that the community needs,” Huynh said. “You know, America is the land of opportunity and we are taking advantage of the opportunity to follow our dream here.” Wade Landry contributed to this report.

FINGERPRINTS, from page 1 and dust potential evidence for fingerprints. However, this technique often leaves the prints contaminated, making it harder for analysts to investigate the print using other methods. The laser system would eliminate this struggle. Instead of using one sample of a fingerprint, the machine makes it possible for scientists to replicate the print over and over again. This gives forensic analysts the opportunity to test the sample using other techniques without causing any damage. For now the machine remains inside the walls of Choppin Hall. For it to be available to the public, Donnarumma and his colleagues would have to develop the machine’s portability, which depends on funding, he said. “We are going to [apply for] federal grants, in order to get enough money to bring the system further,” Donnarumma said.

TECHNOLOGY
LIFT2 grants help fund 13 new technologies BY JBRIAAN JOHNSON @JBriaan_Johnson The LSU Board of Supervisors selected 13 new inventions to fund researchers through its innovation and technology transfer grant. These innovations are expected to make improvements in the health, energy and environmental sectors, such as improving the functionality of X-rays, mammograms and other forms of electromagnetic radiation. LSU researchers receive support to transfer technologies to market and test their market potential. The grants play an essential role in contributing to the state’s economy and presenting a platform for new inventions. “We are proud to support
the research conducted by our world-class faculty at LSU as they work to advance technologies that will improve health and build economic prosperity,” LSU Board of Supervisors chairman Scott Ballard said in a news release. These enhancements will improve medical imaging by portraying clearer, high contrast images when examining lung and bone joint scans. The clarity of the new technology will go a long way when searching for detrimental illnesses within the body, like cancer. “It’s very important for LSU to play a key role in promoting and supporting innovation as a flagship university in Louisiana,” construction management professor Jonathan Shi said in a news release. “It’s extremely
hard to move research results from the lab to the market. The seed funds narrow the gap.” Shi developed the Smart Construction Daily Reporter, also known as a C-Reporter, to aid building project managers in developing daily reports for continuing construction projects. Feedback will be given to improve performances while working as well. Shi has intentions of collaborating with local contractors once the software system is released. “LIFT2 aims at transitioning innovations from the academy to the marketplace for public use and benefit,” Shi said. “As a top research university, LSU has a lot of intellectual assets which can benefit the state and community if deployed.”

LEGACY OF EIGHT
Antoine Duplantis will be carrying on the No. 8 jersey tradition for the 2018 season BY HANNAH MARTIN @hmartinTDR Antoine Duplantis will be sporting a new jersey number for the 2018 season. Coach Paul Mainieri announced on Monday that the junior outfielder will be wearing the No. 8 jersey, which is “given each season to the upperclassman who exemplifies the spirit of LSU Baseball through his leadership and dedication to the program,” he said in a news release. “Antoine Duplantis embodies all of the characteristics that we value in our program,” Mainieri said in a statement. “It’s an honor he has worked very hard to earn, and we’re thrilled that our 2018 team has Antoine in a significant position of leadership.” The Lafayette, Louisiana native batted .316 in his second season with the Tigers and recorded 14 doubles, 61 RBIs, 50 runs and 19 steals to help lead the team to a second place finish in the 2017 College World Series. He was named National Player of the Week and SEC Player of the Week on March 20 after the team’s three game sweep of

Georgia. He set the LSU single-game record for hits when he went 6-for-6 on March 17 against the Bulldogs. Duplantis was also named to the 2017 SEC All-Tournament team after going 9-for-16 at the plate during the Tigers’ run in the SEC tournament. The tradition of the No. 8 jersey was started in 2009 by former Tiger outfielder Mikie Mahtook. The jersey has since been worn by first baseman Mason Kats (2012-13), shortstop Alex Bregman (2014-15), outfielder Jake Fraley (2016) and second baseman Cole Freeman (2017). “It will be an absolute honor to continue the tradition of the No. 8 jersey,” Duplantis said in a news release. “The previous players that have worn this number epitomize what it means to be an LSU baseball player,” he said. “I will do everything I can to represent the number and the university in the same way that they have.”
Javonte Smart, one of the nation’s elite high school point guards, announced his commitment to LSU on Twitter June 30. The Baton Rouge native is the highest ranked LSU basketball commit since Ben Simmons in 2015. Smart is ranked as the No. 21 overall prospect and sixth best point guard in the class of 2018. Smart is also classmates with four-star LSU defensive back commit Kelvin Jospeh. His commitment comes after a string of bad news for coach Will Wade, who is attempting to put together a top-ranked recruiting class after finishing with the No. 15 ranked class in 2017. The 6-foot-4-inch point guard was originally thought to be a Kentucky lean, but chose LSU over Kentucky, Kansas, UCLA and Florida. Smart could be joined by fellow 2018 recruit Nazreon Reid. Reid is a five-star forward from New Jersey.

LSU, Florida rivalry heats back up after Tigers loss in CWS
Twitter exchanges between LSU and Florida football players get personal following the CWS finals
“Games against LSU can come down to a couple of inches.” GATORS FOOTBALL @GATORSFB
BY BRANDON ADAM @badam_TDR LSU and the University of Florida have had a long standing rivalry since the two teams became permanent opponents in football in 1971, but the intensity was ramped up after the tentative situation involving Hurricane Matthew last fall. The rivalry once again came into the public spotlight after the College World Series finals between LSU and Florida, when the Gators would go on to sweep the Tigers in two games. In November, the debate over where and when the football game should be played became a public spectacle with administrators from both sides attacking each other in the media. Then came gameday, rescheduled for Nov. 19 from Oct. 8 after weeks of trash talk,
including running back Derrius Guice exclaiming live on ESPN that Florida couldn’t “run no more.” A pregame interaction between both teams culminated in a slight shoving match between Leonard Fournette and a Florida coach. Fournette would play, but his performance was largely ineffective due to a chronic ankle injury. The Tigers would lose after Guice was stopped on the goalline by the Gator defense with no time remaining.

Tip 1: “If you speak the native language of the city you’re traveling in, you’re less likely to be seen as a complete foreigner, even if you’re not completely fluent. Natives can detect foreigners.” Tip 2: “Getting out, seeing the city and meeting people is the best way to enjoy yourself and not be so guarded all the time. Take the same precautions you’d take here in the states.”
Mass communication and liberal arts senior Jeremiah Rogers, Europe: “I felt more safe in Europe than I’ve felt in America for a very long time.” Tip 1: “Don’t look like a tourist. Even if you’re lost, don’t look clueless.” Tip 2: “It would have been great to know that some countries accept credit and debit cards much less than in the states because I rarely use cash.”

Sofia Coppola offers provocative new drama with ‘The Beguiled’ DESPICABLE ME 3 Universal Studios
The third installment to the Despicable Me franchise, released on June 30, does not live up to the fun of its predecessors. It is still a family-friendly film, but the plot line drags on and the villain is so ridiculous that he comes off as just annoying.

Myia Hambrick @MyiaChristine
BY YSABELLA RAMIREZ @ysaram97 Whatever Sofia Coppola touches usually turns to gold in my opinion. This time around, the acclaimed director revamped a 1971 movie about a group of Southern women who find a wounded yankee soldier in the forest near their home. Coppola adds her dreamy and feminine touches by telling the story from the women’s perspective. Nicole Kidman is the headmistress of an all-girls school located on a sprawling plantation in Virginia. The setting is in the midst of the Civil War, so only a few students and one teacher remain living in the home. One of the younger students stumbles upon Colin Farrell, who plays an injured Union corporal, alone and at death’s door. The women take him in and nurse his wounds, despite Farrell being the enemy, under the guise that he must leave once he is healed. It’s funny to see the spell
he casts on all of the women, from the younger girls to the seemingly no-nonsense headmistress. Kidman portrays her tough, witty character with grace and a well-crafted southern accent, and easily carries the film with her performance. She is coy about her feelings towards the yankee, yet the sexual tension between them is clear. Kirsten Dunst plays the teacher of the house, at first reserved and shy, she soon falls head over heels for the corporal when he compliments her. Elle Fanning rounds out the list of lovestruck women by depicting a sly and flirtatious teen who sneaks in to the corporal’s room one night to steal a kiss. Sofia Coppola makes the antiquated and at times slow drama more enticing with her subtle touches by way of romantic costumes and music scored by popular band Phoenix, whose lead singer happens to be Coppola’s husband. Besides the film having its
dull moments, I think it was incredibly well done, especially being a period piece and with Coppola taking a risk with the storyline. The entire cast play their parts extremely well, to the point where I was convinced they were actually Civil War-era civilians. The movie takes a sharp and dark turn when Dunst catches her beloved in bed with an underaged Fanning. She becomes hysterical and pushes the corporal down the stairs, leaving the women no choice but to amputate his now broken leg. Farrell lashes out at the group he once had eating out of the palm of his hand, and everyone except Dunst realizes they have to find a way to get him out of the house for good. Without spoiling the rest of the film, I will say the ending was abrupt and left me searching for a deeper meaning that I thought I may have missed. Yet that in itself is one of the many things Coppola does best, leaving the audience yearning for more.
