Student Life >>> Tim Sealy
person who’s interested in joining? RR: Be willing to work and to know that you’re going to fall and you have to get back up. That’s part of the game. We fall down and we get up and we learn from it. DS: Don’t give up. I think a lot of people give up. The “Fresh Meat” [training team] usually starts with about 50 girls and by the end of it there’s maybe six left.
Arizona Derby Dames.
What teams have the biggest rivalry? RR: Some of my closest friends skate for the Runaway Brides, and I feel like when we play that team, it’s like all-out. It’s a fun game. It’s never necessarily a dirty game, but it’s an aggressive game.
Arizona Derby Dames get down, dirty, and back up again Cailyn Finkel • College Times These chicks are the definition of badass. Bruises and sweat are common occurrences for the women of the Arizona Derby Dames roller derby league. The league was founded in 2004 and continues to be a tough women’s haven to this day. They pride themselves on the danger of injury and the wounds that they do get during their vicious, bloody bouts. With this year being the tenth anniversary of the league, the ladies are busier than ever and embracing every second. Dolly Spartan and Rowdy Roulette of the Bombshells roller derby team spoke with College Times about what it takes to make it on a team, the worst injuries they can remember and what they’ve given up to give the derby their all. College Times: How long have you been a part of the AZDD league? Rowdy Roulette: From the very beginning, I’ve been a part of the league since before the first bout. I’m the only one left! I love to play it, I love working with the girls that come in. I love the sport. Dolly Spartan: I’ve been a part of the league for two years now. What led you to choose Roller Derby over other sports?
RR: Roller derby kind of found me. A friend had told me that this league was starting up and I got interested. I wasn’t out looking for it. One day I got the message and that was it. DS: I’ve had friends that are in it and it’s just a ton of fun. When I first started I realized it’s pretty demanding, and I would go watch the games and it looked so fun. I just didn’t [have the] dedication for it. As soon as I had the time for it I tried out and loved it ever since. What type of girl does it take to make it in the league? RR: People with strong minds, definitely. Someone with a strong heart. It’s a very taxing sport because of it being full-contact, but you end up being friends with the girl that nailed you on the track. Somebody is going to rough you up one minute and the next minute you’re going to be laughing with them. You can’t really take things too personally. DS: I think anybody can do it. You just have to have a lot of dedication. What sacrifices do you have to make to be a part of the league? RR: Time commitment is number one. People come in and they start, but then they quickly find out how much time we put into it. Roller derby is something that is here because we do all of the work. We don’t get paid to play.
DS: Time, work, family. It just kind of takes over! You need the time to do it, but it’s all worth it. What’s the most important thing you’ve learned about yourself while being in the league? RR: My overall personal strength and willpower. It’s definitely taxing on the mind and body. I’ve had breaks and surgery. My will to keep playing is pretty strong. DS: Probably how strong I am mentally and how much I like to be a part of a team. Would you recommend this sport to someone? RR: I would recommend this sport to every single person I meet. Not everyone that is a part of roller derby skates and plays. We have people that referee our games, and if we didn’t have our refs, it wouldn’t be possible. We have photographers, volunteers, and it is completely open to the community. It’s really a place where anyone can come and be themselves. DS: Definitely. All the girls in the league are super, super nice and everybody gets along. You’re a part of a team. When you’re playing the game everybody wants to be hard, but when it comes down to it, everyone is sisters in the league. Everyone is there for the other person. What advice would you give to a
What was your favorite bout? Why? RR: My favorite bout is the bout we just played Saturday night. It was our season opener, it was a more than sold out house, and our team went into the game playing against the team that went to championship last year. We knew that it was going to be really tough. We had girls get ejected but our team stayed remarkably strong. We pulled together and embodied what a team is.
What was your gnarliest injury? RR: On May 18, 2011 I suffered [a] trimalleolar fracture, which means I literally shattered the bones in my ankle. It was three weeks before a national tournament and I didn’t get to play. It was pretty tough. They told me five to six months before I could be back on skates but I was back on my skates in 12 weeks. DS: I didn’t break anything, thank God. I fell on a nail and also fell really hard. The nail went in my butt, so I have like an indention in my butt forever. I was bruised for months and it’s still there. One of the girls [in the AZDD] is a doctor and she said the fat was damaged so it’s forever going to be this hole in my butt. Are there ever really dirty games? RR: Yeah, there are. Saturday night’s game was pretty dirty. Whether it’s some of the actions that take place when the refs aren’t looking, or maybe the shit-talking that happens when the girls are lining up to take off, it gets nasty out there sometimes. I think it’s part of any full-contact sport. If somebody’s going to elbow me or trip me intentionally, I’ll be waiting in the wings and I’m going to get them back.

College Times’ semi-annual “Girl Survey” side-steps preconceived notions and digs for the dirty, lowdown (and often hilarious) truth about women. What do girls really think about sex, relationships, social media and porn? We surveyed dozens of college-aged girls on campuses across the Valley and online to find out. The results are surprising, hilarious, endearing and not at all scientific.

style break down
Cailyn Finkel • College Times Acting tough is one thing, but looking the part takes dedication in itself. To be a rough-and-tumble roller derby chick means you need a few things. A helmet, fully equipped with “helmet panties,” or a mesh patterned cover, is one. The next is a cool theme that all girls on the team generally adhere to. This could be anything from neon colors to Army print, but it needs to fit together. Matching T-shirts with a team’s logo are also common amongst these brutal women, and the shirts are often paired with shorts and fishnets. Rowdy Roulette of the Bombshells says, “Each team picks a theme, we are the Bombshells so our theme is like the 1940s pin-ups. Our color is red, so we wear red, V-neck, sport style jerseys with leopard print bottoms. Then the girls can do what they want with leggings and fishnets.” The brighter the better when it comes to coloring– leggings are worn with crazy patterns, shorts are metallic, and many sport ruffle-butts. Anything that could possibly distract a member of the opposing team comes as an advantage to the lady wearing it. Looking good is obviously important, but so is being able to comfortably play in the uniform. The outfits are made with flexible fabric for a reason. “Comfort is huge when you’re competing,” Roulette explains, “We don’t want a bunch of extra [clothing].” If you can’t find what you want while browsing through stores around the Valley, there are places online that can cater to your every whim. Be it team names, embroidery, beanies or arm bands—stores like derbyskinz.com are ready to take on the challenge.

Help Breast Cancer Awareness month beyond pink ribbons Julia Thatcher • College Times Don’t just sport a pink ribbon during the month of October—support women and families affected by breast cancer. Here are a couple ideas instead of signing up for a race or buying that pink ribbon you are just going to leave in your car. Sprinkles Cupcakes One day only, October 1 to be exact, Sprinkles Cupcakes will be selling pink cupcakes and 100 percent of the proceeds go to Breast Cancer Biomarker Discovery Project. Pick up a couple for the women you love in your life! Cocktails for Breast Cancer Because #WineNot? A handful of restaurants debut signature cocktails during October with proceeds going to different charities and organizations benefiting breast cancer research and awareness. Volunteer Sign up to volunteer your time through the National Breast Cancer Foundation. You can become an advocate for hope to help encourage early detection, help sign women up for mammograms and clinical breast exams, or even host and plan your own fundraising event. Visit nationalbreastcancer.org for more information. The Tutu Project After his wife was diagnosed with cancer, photographer Bob Carey donned a pink tutu and began taking photos of himself in order to bring a smile to her face. Now, 11 years later, these books are making thousands of people smile. Buy a book, send it to your loved ones or keep it for yourself and 100 percent of the net proceeds go to the Carey Foundation for families affected by breast cancer. Sporting Events Help kick cancer in the butt by attending a sporting event. Professional teams typically do a breast cancer awareness game where proceeds of the game go to different charities and fans are encouraged to wear pink in support.

Amber Freeman hitting.
Amber Freeman, ASU softball Julia Thatcher • College Times Tenacious, motivated, and ambitious are a few words that can be used when the name Amber Freeman comes to mind. Freeman is a powerhouse who plays for both the USA and Arizona State University women’s softball team. This badass is leading the way for women in sports being ranked in USA softball’s top 25 Players of the Year and the Pac-12 Conference player of the year in 2013. The two-time All American is studying health sciences at ASU and is a true champion on and off the field. She caught up with College Times to let us know about her future plans and what it’s like to be a woman dominating the sports world. College Times: What teams do you play for, what position and how long have you played for them? Freeman: I play for the ASU Women’s Softball team (now a senior, so four years) and also for the USA Women’s National Softball Team for two years now. What sets you apart as an athlete and makes you successful? What sets me apart as an athlete is my drive. I have had five different surgeries and I think that many people in my position would have given up. When I was 11, I had a major hip surgery where they put a three-inch titanium screw in. I remember the doctor coming in and telling me that I probably would not ever play softball again. When I was a sophomore in high school, I tore my ACL and meniscus on the first day of high school practice, and I missed about a year from softball. Since coming to ASU, I have torn my meniscus twice and have had surgeries to fix it both times so now I am

pretty much bone-on-bone. These surgeries are all on my left knee, so needless to say, I have been through a lot. Then this past summer I broke my left foot and now have a screw in there as well, so I have some hardware. A lot of people don’t know my story, but I think that I would describe myself as resilient because I always have some sort of setback, but come back better than ever. What has been your greatest moment career wise so far? I have two favorite moments. The first would be being named the PAC 12 Player of the Year in 2013. That was something that was completely unexpected, but I was so humbled because the PAC 12 is one of the toughest softball conferences in the country. So, to be named the best player that year…nothing will ever compare. My second favorite moment would be being named a two-time All American. Being an All-American has been one of my goals since I was a little girl, so to achieve that was an amazing feeling. Where do you see yourself going with the sport, and when you’re done playing? Depending if I have a healthy senior season, I hope to play with Team USA again for the Pan American games and Canada and after that maybe go pro and play overseas in Japan. Tell me about your recent injury and how the recovery process has been? This summer while playing with Team USA, I hit a grand slam and was jogging around the bases. I hit third and felt a huge pop in my foot. I immediately knew something was not right. I played for four innings, but was in so much pain

that I finally told the trainer that my foot was bothering me. They took me to the emergency room and took X-rays, then told me I broke my foot. I flew home to see my doctor and they told me I had a Jones Fracture, which is a tough break to heal. The doctor then told me I needed surgery, which was nothing new. So they went in and put a screw in the bone to fuse the pieces back together. The recovery has been tough. I lost all strength in my left leg, so I have been working really hard with our trainer in the weight room. At times, I do get discouraged, but I always tell myself that I am able to come out of this. What is it like to be a female in sports? At times it’s tough because male sports are so dominate. I may be biased, but the ASU women’s softball team is one of the strongest teams on campus, but I feel like we get overlooked sometimes, especially to teams like football and men’s basketball. But, it still is a huge honor to be able to play for Arizona State. What has been the hardest challenge and greatest success as a woman in sports? The hardest challenge is to be looked at as an equal to men’s sports. Like I said before, we tend to be overlooked a lot because we are women. It is the sad truth about women’s sports. For example, the Phoenix Mercury (WNBA team) just won a championship, but many people probably have no idea. But if the Suns won, it would be a totally different story. The greatest success in female sports would be Title IX, which has made it possible for women to compete in sports across the country.
ASU Sun Devils v. Stanford, One of the most anticipated games of the year, ASU will take on Stanford October 18.

Student Voices Offensive feminist Ana Anguiano • College Times Two of my favorite issues we put together every year are the guy and girl issues of College Times. We focus on Ana Anguiano cool people doing neat stuff and have a rather informative survey to boot. The survey has been all sorts of controversial over the years with questions about love, life, sex and anything else we can think to ask. One of the questions I was most excited about on the survey this year is, “Are you a feminist?” We asked the question to both genders but I was not prepared for the results we collected. As I tallied responses, it was a little crushing to note so many “no” responses to a question I think is incredibly important. Then again, I consider myself a feminist and have no problem making that fact known. But reading through the fill-in-the-blank responses, some people could not commit to the word. Some ladies described themselves as “sometimes” a feminist and “kind of” a

feminist. Others wrote that while they believed in feminism, the word had been taken over and no longer meant what it was supposed to mean. The hesitance to use the word feminism and the negative connotations the word brings to mind muddy the meaning and make it sound offensive, but I was still surprised to find so many college-aged women flat-out rejecting it. Feminism is one of my favorite topics to discuss with people, but it is not exactly dinner party appropriate. It can be hard to discuss an issue that can be so easily derailed by an extreme point of view that shuts down any form of two-way discussion, so you have to tread lightly. In the rare chance where men identify with the cause, I get really excited about the prospect of dudes being a part of whatever “wave” we happen to find ourselves in. And I wish more of them felt welcome. But I worry that in the hard rejection of feminism, women are missing out on a huge chunk of female history and art. Punk music, for instance, is an essential outlet for all sorts of displeasure with the world. Kathleen Hanna, the lead singer of Bikini Kill and Le Tigre, used her music to bring attention to domestic abuse

The monthly battle royale between two stubborn people born 60 years apart
...with Old Fart and Young Punk
Debate: Should marijuana be legalized? First word: Dear Young Punk, For years, special interest groups— ranging from domestic and foreign drug lords to billionaire and far-left political weasel George Soros—have wanted to legalize marijuana across the map of the United States. What stood in their way is a federal law outlawing the sale and consumption of cannabis. Making an end run around the feds, aggressive campaigns were conducted on various state levels to legalize marijuana, the most high-profile current success story being Colorado. With hardly a peep from the Obama administration and Congress, the growing, selling, smoking and otherwise consuming of pot has become an out in the open industry in Colorado, generating millions of dollars in sales. Aside from the intoxicating impact on weed lovers, the state’s politicians have gotten high on the tax revenues generated by the state-sanctioned shops that peddle the stuff, and they’re unlikely to seek a reversal of the referendum that made the so-called legalization possible. I say “so-called” legalization because federal law trumps state law, so in Colorado and everywhere else in the country marijuana is not a legal substance. You and I are told we can’t be selective as to which laws we choose to obey. This doesn’t seem to apply to government officials. They just look the other way when Colorado and other states embrace the open commercialization of marijuana. The camel carrying “devil weed,” as marijuana was once called, got its nose under the Arizona tent through the medical cannabis route. In November 2010, voters passed the Arizona Medical Marijuana Act, administered by the Department of Health Services. The word “medical” assigns a credibility to this ill-conceived legislation that it does not deserve. It leads us to believe that “medical-grade” cannabis meets the same pharmaceutical scientific standards for effectiveness and purity of such pain suppressing medications as aspirin and oxycodone. In truth, all marijuana-regardless of its origination--is considered
medical-grade because it has a therapeutic effect on some people. Whether used to alleviate pain or just to get high, marijuana users can’t be certain of the quality and strength of what they are ingesting. Plant potency varies from strain to strain. Cannabis coming across the U. S. southern border is often transported in unsanitary vehicles and wrappings, and coated with chemicals designed to hide the scent from police dogs and detection devices. There’s no guarantee that the weed consumed is free from contaminants, including molds, chemicals, fertilizers and excretions from insects. My objection to legalizing marijuana is not to deny the legitimate use of it as a pain reliever for those afflicted with cancer, glaucoma, AIDS, or any other serious disease. As a physician-approved and supervised substance, high-grade, contaminant-free cannabis should be readily available to those who require it. Otherwise, I have two primary reasons for opposing the legalization of the devil weed: First, numerous studies confirm pronounced health risks. Among the most detrimental, especially for young people, is that marijuana affects the chemical balance of the brain’s regulatory system and impedes the ability to learn. Further, in men, the regular use of pot reduces sperm count and increases the risk of prostate cancer, and heightens the risk of cervical cancer in women. An increase in anger, anxiety, delusions, paranoia, hallucinations and violent outbursts are also attributed to cannabis usage. Second, you might think that marijuana is a relatively harmless “soft” drug. But the Old Fart believes it’s a gateway to more devastating hard drugs. The U. S. Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) says, “Among marijuana’s most harmful consequences is its potential role in leading to the use of other illegal drugs like cocaine and heroin. Studies show that very few young people use other illegal drugs without first trying marijuana.” Young Punk and the rest of you kids may think smoking pot is harmless and cool, but this Old Fart would rather be hot and healthy. —Old Fart
Rebuttal: Dear Old Fart, Full disclosure: I don’t smoke pot. Well, not anymore anyway. I have maybe about 15 times in my life, most of which happened at the occasional party or among a group of friends—never alone. I’ve never had the thought, “I need to smoke a bowl.” I don’t like the sensation. I don’t like feeling out of control of my thoughts and I don’t like sounding stupid. The older I get, the more paranoid pot makes me, and as a generally law-abiding do-gooder, I don’t like hearing police sirens and thinking they’re coming for me. There are many reasons people won’t smoke pot. Those are just mine. I’ll stick to my alcohol, thanks. I “get” alcohol. My body understands it. It makes me think I’m smart and social. (Oh, how truly deceptive a shot of rum is.) Marijuana use has health effects, as you mentioned. But so do many other things, and marijuana is among the most harmless drugs you can take when you consider the competition. It’s not without risk, but it comes with less risk. New Yorkers were up in arms when New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg wanted to add a soda tax to sugary beverages. There are plenty of downsides to eating poorly— diabetes, heart failure, putting a financial burden on the healthcare system—but I’m willing to bet that you were anti soda tax. Me too! Why? Because personal freedom, of course! It’s the personal freedom of choice that any American should be allowed to make for themselves. If they want to be fat and ill, that’s their problem. The same goes for pot. Anything is fine in moderation, but it’s not up to the government to decide what amount is “fine,” unless an ingredient is toxically harmful, such as mercury, arsenic, and all of those other lovely chemicals that occasionally find their way into our bodies. That’s what the FDA is for. How would you feel if the FDA put a cap on THC levels allowed in commercial grade marijuana, taxed it and sold it to those 21 and older? I feel like that would be a fair compromise. The medical marijuana industry in
Arizona and legalization of marijuana in Colorado has generated countless new jobs, including one for my friend. He works in a marijuana testing facility in Phoenix, where dispensaries send their samples to get it tested for THC levels, mold, mildew, butane, acetone and more. While it’s true that Arizona dispensaries, at this time, don’t have to have their samples tested, a dispensary’s reputation is on the line if they don’t. Above all, a dispensary is a business. If they sell dingy, unsanitary weed, people are less likely to buy from there. If they sell edibles and strains with varying THC and other elements, they can run a legitimate pharmacy that helps people. Guess which one most patients want to choose? If a smoker is really concerned about what their strain contains, they can send it to the lab themselves for a $50 fee. The same person can fake chronic migraines, get a medical marijuana card and buy from a dispensary that sends their products out for testing. Again, finding quality products to put in your body is a personal responsibility. Is marijuana a gateway drug? People rarely go from dead sober to giving black tar heroin a go, so of course—but plenty of people are willing to stop at pot. I’ve never tried anything harder. The war on drugs has failed. Over 50 percent of people in prison are there for a drug-related crime, according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons, nearly 28 percent of which are doing time for a crime related to marijuana. The illegal drug trade fuels the border wars in Mexico, leading to kidnapping, torture and deaths. The American prison population has increased from 25,000 in 1980 to 214,506 at time of writing, according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons. Sure, the American population has increased since then, but not at the same rate as the prison population. That’s a 758 percent increase! Cigarettes are legal. Alcohol is legal. This is a tired argument, but knowing the severe health effects of misuse of those two products, pot is a healthier alternative. And you might not like it, but I predict full nationwide legalization of marijuana in the next 10 years. I’ll celebrate that day with a shot of rum. —Young Punk

Ana Anguiano • College Times Consciously breathing in and exhaling while being in control of your breath and your movements is not only an extreme work out, but a great way to align your body and mind. Rhiannon Ritchey and her business partner Matt Dent are bringing that essential experience outside and on the water. A marine biologist and yoga enthusiast for the past ten years, Ritchey recently moved to Arizona and started teaching stand-up paddle board yoga in April with her first classes out on Lake Pleasant. Dent works at the boat rental company at Tempe Beach Park and Lake Pleasant where Rhiannon’s Latitude 33 Yoga hosts its classes. “It’s a fun activity for yogis to come out and do different things. It requires a little more balance, a little more coordination but it’s also for all levels. We have just about every one of all body types—young and old,” Ritchey says. Teaching yoga in the Tempe Town Lake Marina is a bit different from her former job working with sharks in an aquarium at St. Thomas in the US Virgin Islands, but Ritchey says she is trying to bring Arizona something new. “There are so many people around here and so much concrete and so many indoor activities. To get outside, even in the summer time when everyone is super hot, it’s an opportunity to get out in nature and connect with it and yourself,” she says. “You find that peace in that class time. It’s really empowering.” It might seem intimidating to try and
balance on a board in the water, but the boards used are 10 to 12 feet long and 3 feet wide. The boards are also anchored for the class. Ritchey says people often start the class nervous and might not even know how to stand on the board, but that at the end they are both lighthearted and empowered by what they were able to accomplish. Classes in Tempe are one hour long while in Lake Pleasant, classes are two hours. Ritchey says it’s just like any other yoga class in that you build strength and flexibility, but you get to enjoy your surroundings and find that element of mind and body. Advanced yogis also benefit from SUP yoga when they do harder poses. “The class is very fun and we keep it light to help people focus on their breathing. It’s an excellent core exercise,” she says. “If you are already a yogi and you practice a lot, it refines your technique. Sometimes you’ll be on the board and you’ll notice you lean on one side more because the board is tipping. It refines alignment and keeps people really focused and motivated.” Students get plenty of time to paddle around, try new poses for themselves and even swim if they want. Ritchey says the water at Lake Pleasant is clear and 85 degrees at the moment. “We also do Shavasana at the end of class so people get to lay and get the warmth on their body and cool water on their finger tips,” she says.

If you have never been to an indoor rock climbing gym, you might have some preconceived notions as to what it might look like. Surely, there are some grimy straps, harnesses and other tools needed to get you up a wall from the ‘90s before you rappel down. And while there are several gyms where that might be true, at Focus Climbing Center, they have a pretty different way of doing things. “I have been in the climbing industry for 20 years and I’ve worked at every Valley climbing gym, so I’ve seen a lot of the ins and outs of the industry and the community. I really designed this facility to create more to help bring the community together, not necessarily divide it up and stick more people in the gym,” owner Joe Czerwinski says. “There are climbing wall designs that allow for more people to be in the facility, but it doesn’t necessarily lend to the community aspect of it.” At Focus, the form of rock climbing that is used is called bouldering, which doesn’t require any ropes or harnesses. The basic thing you need is the correct shoes (which you can rent) and a chalk bag. This style of gym is cropping up more and more in the United States, and Czerwinski says it’s become the most popular form of climbing with teenagers and young adults. Not only has Czerwinski been in the industry for two decades, but in 2008, he was a member of the U.S. Adult National Bouldering Team during the first IFSC Bouldering World Cup on U.S. soil. Two years later, he was picked as the USAC National Team Coach, making him the
only American male to have represented the United States as a coach and an athlete. “We are changing the mold and saying this is how climbing gyms should start being for the next 20 years,” Czerwinski says. And being that Czerwinski has seen his share of competition, his gym does things its own way. There is air conditioning for one thing, a unique type of flooring system that covers 3,000 square feet of a landing surface, and free chalk. Focus aims to change the perception of climbing gyms, and making it easier for people to join in is a big part of that. For anyone wanting to join in, Wednesdays are ladies nights where day passes are only $5 after 6 p.m. Saturdays are also family fun nights, where a family of three can each get a day pass and gear rental for $30, which is a $65 value. Any additional children are $5 extra. If you are feeling competitive and would like to join in on the fun, Focus Climbing Center is also hosting the Desert Classic Bouldering Competition on Saturday, September 27. To enter, you can call 480.718.5258. Registration ends the day of the competition. The registration fee is $35 for members and $40 for non-members, but anyone who wants to attend and watch can do so for free as professional and amateur climbers compete. There will be food, beer and a DJ to get the competition going.

Rick Bronson performs at his comedy club.
Rick Bronson’s Comedy Club Christina Caldwell • College Times They say there’s tragedy in comedy, and for comedian and comedy club entrepreneur Rick Bronson, that was certainly the case. On September 11, 2001, the owner and purveyor of the recently opened Rick Bronson’s Comedy Club in North Phoenix, was in the hospital for his Crohn’s Disease. Family and friends were convinced he was on his death bed, and when he watched the second plane his the World Trade Center, he wasn’t sure if it was real life or a hallucination, thanks to the morphine. So there’s your tragedy. The comedy came after, when Bronson realized his dream of opening a comedy club. There was no reason not to pursue it once he was released from the hospital. “I needed to find a way to make a buck that I was still doing something I loved, but I didn’t have to be on the guy 40 weeks ago living that lifestyle of poor sleep, late hours, eating late at night—just things that aren’t conducive to a healthy lifestyle.” Since then, Bronson has unveiled four clubs in Bloomington, Minnesota, Alberta, Canada, East Rutherford, New Jersey and now, a North Phoenix addition earlier this month. Most comedy clubs are situated close entertainment meccas in Old Town, Tempe or Downtown Phoenix, but Bronson saw potential in the burgeoning North Phoenix shopping center High Street. The club’s opening party included a performance from “Half Baked” comedian Harland Williams and the club’s first week featured T.J. Miller, comedy “it” guy and “Silicon Valley” oaf.
Bronson wants to draw big names, but he also wants to draw the names behind the big names. Writers and road comedians are welcome, too. “We really tried to build the club to be exactly what comics want,” Bronson says. “There’s certain things that comedians love. Comedians love a room that feels intimate, they love a room with low ceilings, sound is key. I probably spend more on sound and light than a lot of comedy guys who are opening a comedy club. That’s not to say that other clubs aren’t good, but it’s that I’m such a stickler for perfect sound and perfect light. My attitude is that, no matter where you sit in the theater, everyone should have that exact same experience.” Bronson considers himself a bit of a foodie, so he wanted to create a menu to reflect that. “Most people equate comedy clubs with ‘OK, here’s some popcorn, here’s some nachos, and here’s something we fried up really quick that we found dead on the street, so enjoy,’” Bronson jokes. “We try to take a lot of pride.” Hailing from Montreal, which he considers one of the culinary capitals of North America, his standards are high. Expect to find specialty burgers, flatbreads, creative salads and of course, poutine—a Canadian staple. Rick Bronson’s House of Comedy, 5350 E.

If you drove down McClintock Drive anytime within the last 40 years, it would have been hard to miss the massive red barn sitting on the corner of University Drive, always filled with vivacious people and good times. After closing their doors in 2005, The Mission @ Minder Binder will open after a long two-year renovation. What is now considered to be a part of Tempe history, Minder Binder may look different on the outside to those familiar with the bar’s past appearance, but before the bars “ghosts of regulars past“ grab their pitchforks, people will be ecstatic to find that the inside has been virtually untouched with the exception of minor necessary upgrades, leaving behind 40 years of great memories and a new bar that is ready to make more. “Rule of thumb was anything in the bar that guests saw, touched, or had memories of, was kept,” new owner Kristen Bell says. There was no issue keeping true to the authenticity of the bar during the remodel. Bell’s dad, who is the visionary behind the project, was a sophomore at Arizona State University in 1972 when the bar originally opened. A family affair, a third Bell, Kristen’s brother, is the contractor for the project. Bell says her family was interested in reopening the bar because it was a way to preserve the essence of fond memories
people have. “Someone stops by almost every day to take a look around and find a piece of themselves they left here. It may be their name etched in the booths or something they had written on the railing. They are always so surprised when they find it,” Bell says. What will be emphasized in the reopen is the “old-school” way of how things used to be run, and the way people were treated. The building did see major renovations on the outside, however. The building was not torn down but expanded upon changing the look drastically. The inside saw a major renovation in the back of the house. The kitchen has been upgraded with all new appliances, as well as the bathrooms. No more pig troughs in the men’s bathroom, however, the original bars, booths, and the second story have remained intact. Hanging from the ceiling on the second floor are antiques and Hollywood memorabilia that are larger than life. Minder Binder is now waiting on final permits from the city and anticipated to be open before the end of the year. The bar originally opened in October of 1972 but 2015 will be the start of a brand new chapter.

Jill Bryan on being more than just the funny mom Cailyn Finkel • College Times Jill Bryan isn’t your typical mom. A Valley local, this mother of two doubles is a comedian. She says what she thinks and gets paid to do it. Born into a family of comedy (her big bro is Jimmy Kimmel), Jill has been dominating the local standup scene and has even taken her talents abroad to help cheer up the troops, being the only female member of the Comedy Squadron. The funny lady took a second to chat with College Times about being the “funny mom,” her radio show and everything in between. College Times: What advice do you have for college-aged girls about pursuing an “unconventional” career path? Bryan: Do it! Why not? You have your whole life to be miserable, so why not be happy? If it’s something that you can make money doing and you can enjoy and support yourself, you can do the stuff you hate parttime. There’s always going to be a piece of you that wished you tried it. You’ll regret it if you don’t. How did you tell your family that you wanted to pursue comedy as a career? I didn’t really tell them, actually. My husband actually encouraged me to try it and I thought, “No, I couldn’t do that.” He thought I would really be good at it so I tried it and I loved it. Eight years later and I’m loving it and making a living off of it. It just kind of fell into place. My whole family is in comedy so it wasn’t a big shock. It’s not like we’re a bunch of accountants.

Do you practice in front of the mirror? Oh my God, no! But I did when I first started. I remember I was allowed five minutes at my first open mic, so I would practice in my car. I would look at the time, I would wait for the clock to get to like 12:03 and then I would drive and say my jokes and would leave pauses for maybe laughter. And then when I was done I would back at the clock and see how much time I had eaten up and usually [it was] like 12:04. What’s your favorite part about having a radio show? It’s more of a sketch comedy show. Everything from interviewing local celebrities to different sketch acts with my friends. It’s like “Saturday Night Live” combined with “MadTV” combined with “Chelsea Lately,” all piled into one show. Is it hard being the “funny mom?” Are other moms boring? Dare I say that? I feel like the ones I surround myself with either really like my humor and get it, so that’s fun for both of us, or they have similar humor style. I don’t surround myself with boring people regardless. It is interesting being the “funny mom,” like my son is begging me to chaperone his school trip to Disneyland. Every other kid would never want their mom to be the chaperone. That’s great, but I don’t want to spend three days in Disneyland with a bunch of eighth grade boys. So the answer was no.

Get your gawk on at the Tour De Fat Megan Stalbaum • College Times Tour De Fat is finally here! It is a glorious time when bikes flood the streets and beer floods blood streams. So now’s the time to stop being a couch potato and join in on the fun. Grab your bike, dress up in your craziest costume and pedal on down to Tempe Beach Park on October 4 for a day you won’t forget. Or maybe you will, if you do it right. Registration kicks off at 10 a.m., after which the real fun begins. The parade starts at 11 a.m., followed by a fashion show/costume contest at 12 p.m. There are so many things to look forward to at Tour De Fat including beer, music, entertainment, costumes and of course, some crazy looking bikes. You won’t see just the typical, boring two-wheeled bikes. There are some pretty creative cycling creations that you may never see anywhere else. Here are some of the few bikes we hope to see, considering the crowd: • A bike with a built-in bar counter. It would be nice to see a bike with a built-in bar, but that would be quite hard to bike around with containers rattling around. Instead, we hope there is at least one person just enjoying their beer sitting at their very own counter.
• A swing axil trike. That name doesn’t really give a hint on what this creative bike looks like. To give you a better picture, let’s just say it looks similar to a Harley but with three wheels and a long frame with handlebars you have to reach for. •A bike with big tires. When we say big tires, we mean big tires. You may see a bike that has a regular frame, but over-the-top tires. • A bike with tennis shoes. That sounds like a weird combo, but you may see this bike “running” around Tour De Fat. It won’t be hard to miss since its tires are made out of running shoes. Along with the creative bikes come the creative costumes. Some costumes you may see include Where’s Waldo, banana suits, rodeo gear, superhero costumes, and the always-popular costumes that come from just digging in your closet and putting on whatever you can find. Pump up your tires, make sure to stay hydrated and have a blast! Tempe Beach Park, 54 W. Rio Salado Parkway, Tempe, newbelgium.com/tourdefat, Saturday, October 4, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., free

Shopping >>> Go crown yourself.
Stylish and local, 5 must-see designers Megan Staulbaum • College Times
Phoenix designer turns every day regal with crown collection Christina Caldwell • College Times Now everyone can live in Lannister luxury. Stacy Eden, a Phoenix native and goldsmith jewelry designer, knows how to make the everyday woman feel like a royal. Her line of earthly, nature-inspired crowns have become a hit with local fashionistas and industry professionals at New York’s Mercedes Benz Fashion Week, where she showed her line of crowns alongside clothing designer Michael Costello’s line of high fashion gowns. Her stunning crowns have creepy beginnings. Eden collaborated with California designer Michelle Hébert for her collection—inspiration for which ranged from aristocratic to anatomic. “[Michelle] had a gown that had an (attachment) to it that was a spinal column, basically,” Eden says. “That’s what really got us excited and what really sparked that creativity, and we started sending (each other) pictures of tendons
26
and veins, ligaments and the very, very organic, intertwined basis of the human body.” But it’s not all blood and guts. Her gold, silver and bronze designs add an ethereal, renaissance-inspired look to any outfit. Wearing a crown might be acceptable at your favorite music festival, but wearing them with any practicality in everyday life might feel a little strange. But there are ways to wear them, Eden says, even if it’s not on your head. “They’re great for festivals, they’re great for proms,” Eden says. “With some pieces, you can wear the same piece as a crown, as a necklace, and as a belt. It might not work as a crown for daytime, but as a belt with a great little sundress, it can be just that perfect accessory.” Clutch Jewelry, 4200 N.

Tokyo Fashion: How to do it and where to get it Cailyn Finkel • College Times As the anime scene expands, so does the fashion that goes along with it. Tokyoinspired fashion is bright, creative and wild—often transforming the wearer into a character of their choosing. Everything from super girly to megagoth is acceptable with this style of dressing, so it’s up to you to pick your path. The main goal is to express one’s creativity, and if this sounds like your cup of tea, there are several easy ways to nail the “Harajuku Girl” style.
Dye your hair Bright, stand-out hair colors are a signature Harajuku item. Salons around town are growing accustomed to these requests and often have a wide array of hair color samples to pick from.
Try out knee-high socks Timed perfectly for fall, knee-high socks of all kinds can be incorporated to achieve this type of style. Pair the socks with platform sandals, and you look like you popped right off the crowded streets of Tokyo.
American Apparel is the place to be
Apparel. Their huge selection of neon and patterned basics, such as tights and leotards, is ideal when looking for little things to add to your look.

Goth is in… As surprising as it may sounds, the gothic look is becoming more popular. Pair chunky black shirts with a plaid skater skirt, the aforementioned platform sandals, socks, and you are all set. Throw in a small chain-strap purse to finish the look.
It’s important to be polished Bright, abstract nails are all the rage in Japan. Nail salons around the Valley are becoming equipped to handle the huge increase of specially designed requests. Pull up an image of the design and they’re ready to tackle the challenge—for a price.
Surf the web When all else fails, try sites like o-mighty. com. They’re filled with reasonably priced items that provide the “wow factor” this look demands. Complete with ‘90s tie-dye dresses, emoji crop tops and Pokemon skater skirts-—sites like this are a one-stop shop to Tokyo-inspired fashion.
When in doubt, check out American

Kongos back home after conquering the world Christina Fuoco-Karasinski • College Times Now that the single “Come with Me Now” is certified platinum, playing the Summer Ends Music Festival at Tempe Beach Park will prove to be a triumphant return home for Kongos. “We’re really, really excited,” says Dylan Kongos, the band’s 28-year-old bass and lap slide guitarist. “It’s going to be a year since we played in the Phoenix area. We’re excited to go back there. Before this success happened, we had a small following in Phoenix. I’m excited to see what the radio play and TV commercials and stuff have done for us out there.” Finding multi-format success with “Come With Me Now,” the band of brothers from the East Valley by way of London, England, and South Africa have spent a “pretty crazy” nine months on the road, according to Kongos. “It’s been 10 or 11 years of build up to that,” he says in his faint South African accent. “But the last eight or nine months have been insane.”

He is somewhat modest about the popularity of “Come with Me Now,” which appears on Kongos’ sophomore album, Lunatic. “I think it’s timing and a little bit of luck,” he says. Kongos explains that bands like Mumford and Sons, with their propensity for banjos and acoustic rhythms, have opened up the minds of listeners and radio stations, paving the way for songs like “Come with Me Now.” “But the song’s definitely connecting,” he adds. “You can’t discount that. It’s a lot of timing and luck.” The song has resonated not only with fans and radio stations, but the rest of the entertainment industry as well. “Come with Me Now” was placed
in commercials for movies like “The Expendables 3,” and was chosen as the theme song for the WWE pay-per-view “Extreme Rules.” “It’s kind of weird,” he says. “We’re on the bus and touring so much that we don’t get to watch that much TV or movies. We get texts from friends or messages saying, ‘I just saw your song on this or that.’ It’s pretty exciting.” The brothers—Danny, 25, guitars/ vocals; Jesse, 30, drums/vocals; and Johnny, 32, accordion/keyboards— actually released Lunatic in South Africa first in December 2012. After signing with Epic Records, they re-released the album on February 25. “The timing between the release of Lunatic in South Africa and the success

it started to have here in the States has been over two years,” Kongos says. “We’ve, in the meantime, when it wasn’t doing much in the States, have written new songs. We’ve probably written enough material for at least one, maybe two, albums. We’ve demoed a bunch of it.” Now it’s just a matter of time before Kongos can get into the studio because their touring schedule is so heavy. “It’s difficult to find time to get in the studio and finish another album,” he says. “We’ve got the songs and we’re excited about them. We’ve been playing a few of them live. We’ll probably play a couple of them live in Phoenix.” Kongos says it’s actually not that bad of a problem to not be able to enter the studio because of “traveling and touring the world.” “First-world problems,” he adds with a laugh. The Kongos brothers come from a musical family, including their father, John, who is best known for his 1971 Top 10 hit single, “He’s Gonna Step On You Again,” on which the 1990s band Happy Mondays based their hit “Step On.” “My parents taught us music from an early age,” Kongos says. “They believed it was something we’d enjoy later in life. It wasn’t necessarily to create a band.” But the kids started jamming together when they were teenagers and played their first show at a talent show at Scottsdale’s Chaparral High School. “We were having fun playing covers,” he says. “The two older brothers went to ASU to study jazz. The prospective of having to pursue real jobs wasn’t that exciting, so we decided to stick with the music and slug it out.” Kongos admits that he’s looking forward to coming home and chilling, hanging out by the pool drinking beer, or heading up north to the cooler weather. Nevertheless, he’s excited about playing Summer Ends Music Festival. “It’s a long time coming,” he says of a hometown show. “I can’t wait.” Kongos, Tempe Beach Park, 80 W.

Sondre Lerche promises tears and dancing at the MIM Ana Anguiano • College Times Sondre Lerche has easily made one of the best albums of the year, and it’s also happens to be his ninth. Please is an emotional rollercoaster with songs about love lost, confused feelings and the disastrous demons that wage war within us. It is refreshing to see this side of Lerche, even if this album is being referred to as his “divorce album.” The way Lerche has transformed his pain into a truly beautiful album is inspiring for anyone who has gone through a divorce, or even just a broken heart. We chatted with Lerche to get the deets on what it was like to dig for Please. College Times: When did you start writing the songs that ended up on Please? Lerche: I guess I started thinking about this record three years ago. Usually, I have worked hard, for years often, writing songs that I feel good about and then I take them to a studio, and I work with a producer for a month, and then you have a record. I didn’t want to do that this time. I just wanted to open up to collaborations and surprises and do one song at a time here and there, and not think too much about the album as the whole and see where we ended up. The album really started taking shape when a lot of shit was going down in my personal life, so in a way it was easier for me to express myself because the format that I was recording at, a little here and there, allowed me to update what the album was about.
What is it like performing these songs live? It’s channeling a side of you that usually doesn’t want to show itself— a side that maybe wants to be left alone but needs to come out for the duration of the song. It’s strange, you know, the music you make is always some sort of expression of where you’re at, for better or worse. I think in the past I might have made records and songs, especially when I was teenager, about how I would want things to be. It would be about this idealized state, and I think this record is letting go of ideals and watching your ideals plummet and fail, so in that sense it’s more about realism. But it’s still a pretty playful and colorful and infectious and exciting record. It’s just accepting of realism and trying to make a bold expression of realism. It doesn’t have to be dull or boring because it’s about reality. The album surprised me with how energetic it is. It sort of surprised me, also. I didn’t intend it to be that way. I had a lot of melodies and those were often written at a different time in my life and the words came after, from a different point in my life. We are excited to mix up the old songs with some of the new ones and see what kind of party that stirs up. I think it would be cool if we can make people dance, and then make them cry, and then make them dance again. Sondre Lerche w/TEEN, MIM Music Theater, 4725 E.

Bombay Bicycle Club, from Westeros to Philadelphia Ana Anguiano • College Times Bombay Bicycle Club is one of the most vibrant and electric bands to come out of London in recent years. Their albums, So Long, See You Tomorrow in particular, bring about a certain joy in listeners and their heart-hypnotizing style has led them to play music festivals all over the world. College Times had a nice chat with bassist Ed Nash about his personal concert history and just how he views his band mates. Nash was actually DJing in Glasgow, Scotland on the day they voted on their independence, simply by coincidence. “I can play the ‘Braveheart’ beats at the beginning of my DJ set,” Nash says. “I don’t think I would get out alive if I did that, I won’t lie. I won’t do that.” College Times: What is the first concert you ever attended? Nash: This is not the best thing ever, but do you remember a group called S Club 7? I don’t know how big they would have been in the States. I went to see S Club 7 play at Wembley (Arena). I must have been about 9 at the time and I was completely blown away. They did all the ballads, they had it snowing, they had costume changes, and I was like, “Wow, this is where it’s at.” And then shortly afterward, I realize that it clearly was not where it was at. Who have you seen live that left a lasting impression? I saw Sufjan Stevens when he was touring The Age of Adz a couple years ago and I was completely blown away by that whole
thing. He had this huge production that wasn’t all showy and flashy, it was very organic and homegrown. It seemed like he had been very involved in everything that happened. They decorated the whole stage with colorful tape and neon lights, which created this weird mood. It must have been cheap to do, but it was so effective. He had all these dance routines and his band would dance to songs that were in 5/4 and 7/8 time signatures, so you get this real jarring, strange dance that you wouldn’t normally see. Everyone was partying and it completely blew my mind. It’s one of the best things I’ve ever seen. Which fictional characters would you say best describe your band mates? Let me have a think. That’s a hard one. Ok, Suren, our drummer, is quite an enigma. He’d be kind of like the Pink Panther, I reckon. He’s like cool, sneaky and silent. He’s a quiet, sneaky dude. I reckon Jamie, our guitarist, would be one of the “Game of Thrones” characters. Very thought out and very driven. Maybe one of the Lannisters—not that he’s an evil person. I’ll give Jamie Tyrion Lannister. And Jack would be… oh man, I have no idea about Jack. This is a weird picture I’m painting of us. And I think I would be Danny DeVito from “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.” I reckon that would be myself—just a strange, fat, little man.

Place a number in the empty boxes in such a way that each row across, each column down and each small nine-box square contains all of the numbers from one to nine.
The idea of Go Figure is to arrive at the figures given at the bottom and right-hand columns of the diagram by following the arithmetic signs in the order they are given (that is, from left to right and top to bottom). Use only the numbers below the diagram to complete its blank squares and use each of the nine numbers only one.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) A changing workplace environment could stir up confusion as well as apprehension. Best to ignore the rumors and get the facts. You could find that the changes bring positive elements.
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Respect any doubts you might now be feeling about a new situation. They could be reflecting your inner awareness that some essential information might be missing. Check it out.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Communication is easier this week with people ready and eager to hear what you have to say. Also, check for possible technical problems before you start your new project.
CANCER (June 21 to July 22) It’s important to start the new month with as clean a slate as possible. Either complete all those unfinished tasks or pass them on to others who would be more than happy to take them on.
CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Aspects favor change for the usually traditional Goat. Opening your mind to possibilities you had ignored could lead you to make decisions you once considered improbable.
LEO (July 23 to August 22) This is a good time to cut down on expenses and tame that urge to splurge. Applying some financial discipline now could help the Big Cat ride out a possible monetary crunch later on.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Making personal as well as professional adjustments to changing conditions might be easier with more information explaining the “hows” and “whys” of the situations in question.
VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Money matters are dominant this week. Recheck your accounts and make sure they’re up-to-date. Also, pay more attention to personal issues before they become major problems.
