Annual blockbusters vie for the Oscar Early Tuesday morning, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences unveiled the nominations for the 84th annual Academy Awards. This includes the announcement of which films will compete for the coveted Best Picture Oscar. The Best Picture field this year includes nine 2011 films, a curious number for a category that, for most of its existence, has consisted of only five. The Academy switched the nomination process for the category three years ago, opening the field to ten nominees in hopes of acknowledging more popular cinema, from action blockbusters to comedy films to big box office hits. After two years with ten films in the mix, the Academy has altered the rules yet again. This time allowing anywhere between five and ten nominees, depending on the percentage of votes a film received in the first phase of voting. The second phase of voting will decide the winners in each category, which will be announced on Sunday, Feb. 26 starting at 7 p.m. Martin Scorsese’s “Hugo” led the morning with 11 nominations, including Best Picture and key mentions in the Best Director and Best Film Editing categories. However, “The Artist,” a French love letter to silent cinema, is the film currently favored to win the big prize. The remaining nominees range from the predictable (“The Descendants,” starring George Clooney in a Best Actor nominated performance) to the less expected (“The Tree of Life,” Terrence Malick’s massively ambitious art house picture). Perhaps the biggest surprise of the morning was the nomination of the September 11 themed drama “Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close,” whose 48 percent Rotten Tomatoes rating and 46/100 Metacritic score do not only indicate a lack of critical support, but rank it as the most poorly reviewed Best Picture nominee in Oscar history. Then again, perhaps critical acclaim is not what matters to Academy voters. “For better or worse, these nominations show ample evidence of a large group of voters who
unafraid, indeed unashamed, of telling us what they like,” said Guy Lodge, a writer for In Contention, a respected Oscar blog. “With no precursor foundation for “Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close,” it is clearly there for no other reason than that enough voters were honestly affected by it, and couldn’t care less what the critical majority thought.” Perhaps equally evident from the announcement were which films the Academy liked but did not love. David Fincher’s darkly atmospheric adaptation of Stieg Larsson’s “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo” scored a Best Actress nomination (for Rooney Mara), but failed to convert its critical acclaim and precursor award recognition into a Best Picture or Best Director nomination. Similarly, “Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy,” a densely plotted espionage thriller, earned Screenplay and Best Actor nods (for Gary Oldman), but was left out of the Best Picture field. Surprises and snubs aside, film distributors and local theaters alike are hoping for a boost in attendance in response to the Academy’s announcement. Two years ago, the Oscar nomination for “Avatar” yielded a 45 percent increase in Fandango online ticket sales the following weekend, helping the film to its eventual crown as the high grossing film of all time. Rave Cinema in Downtown Kalamazoo is hoping for considerable Oscar traffic, finally giving Kalamazoo residents a chance to see “The Artist” (the film is slowly expanding after a limited release) and resurrecting “Hugo” (which released at Thanksgiving), in addition to continuing runs of more recent films. Other contenders, such as “War Horse,” “Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close” and “The Descendant,” also stand to gain a substantial boost from the prestigious nomination. Those three films are currently playing at several local theaters, including Rave, Celebration and Goodrich. The remaining Best Picture nominees (“The Help,” “Moneyball,” “The Tree of Life” and “Midnight in Paris”) are all available on DVD and can be rented at Video Hits.

Furnace Fest gets Kalamazoo boiling By Baxter Gill Staff Reporter Community Homeworks’ annual Furnace Fest fundraiser is coming back Feb. 2, at the Old Dog Tavern in Kalamazoo. This event is held to raise money and awareness for the homes that go cold in Kalamazoo. The Furnace Fest is a two-part event, comprised of a silent auction and live music. The event has two goals: get the word out about what
Community Homeworks does and act as a fundraiser going towards furnace installation and repairs in the Kalamazoo area. “[Furnace repairs] are one of our higher demand services, and one of our most expensive. So we thought that with a nice little event, we could get some support for the organization as well as helping people get what they need to keep their heat on this winter,” said Celine Keizer, a development and operations volun-
teer with the organization. While Furnace Fest is possibly the most well known operation that Community Homeworks puts on, the organization broadly specializes in helping low income Kalamazoo families with home repairs. The organization is committed to helping those who cannot help themselves and also partner with other organizations to achieve what they could not achieve on their own. “We work with Kalamazoo
Neighborhood Association and Habitat for Humanity, and Kalamazoo Neighbor Housing Services,” said Keizer, listing the three major partner organizations. Community Homeworks has an impressive record to show for all their hard work, with 162 repairs and 182 clients served since the organization’s inception in October 2010. Three different musical acts will be performing at the Old Dog. Per-
forming from 6 to 8 p.m., local artist Alex Mays will hold the stage. From 8 to 10 p.m., The Mighty Joe Wang Acoustic Circus will perform feats of musical madness. Finishing out the show, The Skeletones will play 10 p.m. to close. The actual event will take place at Old Dog Tavern, located at 402 Kalamazoo Ave. Donations will be accepted at the event for anybody looking to support the Community Homeworks organization.
Red Hot Chili Peppers come to Michigan Lead vocalist Anthony Kiedis returns home to Grand Rapids By Emily Midling Staff Reporter For the first time in five years, Grand Rapids born Anthony Kiedis and his band, Red Hot Chili Peppers will be performing in his hometown. With more than 70 million albums sold, numerous chart-topping hits, including “Under the Bridge” and “Californication”, an
induction into the Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame happening in April, and seven Grammy awards, including one for Best Rock Album for 2007’s “Stadium Arcadium,” and Best Rock Song for both 2000’s “Scar Tissue” and 2007’s “Dani California.” Red Hot Chili Peppers’ three-decade career is still going strong. The band will be performing at Van Andel Arena in Grand Rapids
on May 26 as part of the “I’m With You Tour.” The first leg of the tour had to be postponed due to multiple foot injuries sustained by Anthony Kiedis. “Anthony recently underwent surgery to remove a crushed sesamoid bone and correct a detached flexor tendon in his foot and is expected to make a full recovery,” according to a statement on the band’s website.
All of the dates of that leg have been rescheduled, and many of them have already sold out. According to a press release, the band’s 2007 tour was considered incredibly successful, and the tour is expected to be very successful as well. The “I’m With You Tour” is in support of their new album of the same title, which came out in the fall of 2011, and was nominated for
a Grammy for Best Rock Album. The tour will go across the U.S. and into Canada and Europe as well. Tickets will be available starting at 10 a.m. on Jan. 27, and cost either $38 or $58 at a Ticketmaster box office, Ticketmaster outlet, or on ticketmaster.com. For more information, visit ticketmaster.com or redhotchilipeppers.com.
Western’s snow day policy explained Early morning snowfall most likely to cause school closure By Gabi Crowley Staff Reporter
When it comes to snow removal on Western Michigan University’s campus, authorities don’t mess around. “It’s a substantial amount of work that has to be done,” WMU Executive Director of University Relations Cheryl Roland said. Roland said as soon as snow begins to fall, WMU ground crews are out making sure that campus is clear. With over 25 miles of roads, 100 acres of parking lots, and more than 39 miles of sidewalks, WMU is in its ninth year of pairing with Kalamazoo Landscape services to
remove snow from campus. Roland said while WMU’s staff is responsible for clearing walkways, stairs, building entries and keeping handicap access features clear of snow, Kalamazoo Landscaping Services plow campus parking lots and roads. Even with the amount of work that has to be done, WMU rarely cancels classes due to the winter weather conditions. “It’s a very different transition for students to make from the K through 12 environment,” Roland said of comparing the surrounding school districts that declare snow days to WMU. Roland said that canceling classes at a university is different than canceling at elementary, middle, or
high schools because WMU cannot add on days to the end of the semester like they can. “When we have to cancel classes, that means that is one or two classes less than students pay for,” said Roland. Roland said she views students as professionals, adding that most workplaces would not close because of a heavy snowfall. “Being a student is much more like being part of the workforce. You’re expected to be there everyday,” Roland said. In the past 10 years WMU has had a total of six closures due to weather conditions. • In November of 2000, Thanksgiving recess began a day early because of snow conditions.
• Between the years of 2000 and 2006, WMU did not close at all for winter weather conditions. • On Dec. 1, 2006, classes were cancelled due to an ice storm, which downed trees and caused power octages throughout Kalamazoo. • On Feb. 5, 2007, WMU was closed due to extreme cold weather conditions. • On Feb. 1, 2008, classes were cancelled due to heavy snow conditions. • On Dec. 10, 2009, WMU cancelled classes as a result of blizzard conditions. • Last year, Feb. 2, 2011, classes were cancelled due to blizzard conditions. “Timing is everything,” Roland said.
If snowfall stops before midnight, all of campus will be cleared by the time classes begin the next morning. On the rare occasion that a snowstorm will occur in the early morning hours, the snow removal crews have a harder time clearing all of campus before the start of morning classes and a snow day may be declared. If a snow day happens to be declared, Roland gets a call and immediately contacts WMU’s webmaster, who posts the closing on the university homepage. Students can also call WMU’s hotline (269) 387-1001 to listen for a recording confirming that classes are cancelled for the day.

Running in the winter and coping with the cold By Liz VandenHeede Staff Reporter Despite being in the midst of a Michigan winter, local experts said they believe in a workout that can be done virtually anywhere and without extensive gear. Local runners and fitness gurus gathered at Bronson Athletic Club to present “Runner’s Night.” The event was put on by Kalamazoo Area Runners, Bronson Athletic Club, Bronson Orthopedic and Sports Medicine and Gazelle Sports and allowed long-time devoted runners to continue their knowledge about the sport or help new runners get started. “Fun” and “energetic” are two words that presenter and General Manager of Gazelle Sports, Rob Lillie, used to describe the sport
that is becoming increasingly popular. He said there are a few main things to keep in mind when running during Kalamazoo’s occasionally harsh winter, mainly that cotton is comfortable when lounging around but will not help when running or working outside. “Cotton holds water against you, so it makes you freeze,” he said. “Wear polyester or wool. Wool is the ultimate thermal regulator. It will keep you warm or keep you cool.” Sherri Enlow, an attendee of the event and member of Kalamazoo Area Runners, said she definitely sees the advantage or wearing “wicking” fabrics that help keep water off skin in the winter. She also offered advice on how not to slip on the ice, describing small, metal springs called “Yak-
trax” that stretch across the bottom of running shoes and help improve grip. “They’ve been very helpful,” she said. Running on campus in the winter can be icy and cold, but Western Michigan University senior, cross country and track athlete, Autumn Grayson, said her team manages just fine. “We run outside pretty much everyday, despite the weather,” she said. “We wear running tights and long sleeve running shirts.” Grayson did acknowledge that running clothes could be expensive, so they can get by in sweatshirts as well. A new trend is sweeping across the running world, according to the presenters at “Runner’s Night.” The trend, which was helped made
popular with the book “Born to Run” by Christopher McDougall, is running barefoot. “Footwear is the only thing you really need to run and even that’s becoming debatable,” said Lillie. He went on to describe his first, painful experience running without shoes and explained that people should ease into it and “only you can tell if it’s right for you.” Lillie also said that occasionally running small distances barefoot sometimes helped people with their running related injuries by allowing the foot to fully stretch out. He mentioned that new, barefoot running shoes are becoming increasingly popular as a way to get the barefoot running experience with more protection. Dr. Terry Nelson of Bronson Orthopedic and Sports Medicine
and presenter at the event corroborated Lillie’s barefoot running advice and gave advice on the injuries that many runners face. “Diagnose early, fix yourself if you can, but know when to seek professional help,” he said was the most important thing to understand. Dr. Nelson offered words of advice to beginning runners and longtime runners alike. “Running hard everyday is a recipe for disaster,” he said. “You must schedule rest into your program.” While he said every program varies, he suggests that runners schedule their weeks with three to four days of running, two days of strength training and taking one day off.
Michigan weather leaves many melancholy By Kelly Mason Staff Reporter Depression in winter may be more common than people realize. The winter blues can seem normal and in most cases, disappears when spring comes around. The cause of this seasonal melancholy is a type of depression known as Seasonal Affective Disorder, or SAD. SAD is a type of depression a person experiences during the same season each year. This recurring disorder can explain why some individuals feel more depressed during the cold winter months in comparison to the summer season. Anybody is eligible for experiencing SAD, but it is more common in people who live in areas where the winter days are very short and there are significant changes in the amount of sunlight in the different seasons. People between the ages of 15 and 55, especially women, and those who have relatives with SAD may be more likely than others to be diagnosed. Experts are still not positive on what specifically causes SAD, but it is most likely due to a significant lack of sunlight. Roxanne DrydenEdwards, M.D., is the assistant professor of psychiatry at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Maryland. “Lack of sunlight has been cor-
related with interrupted sleepwake cycles and other circadian rhythms,” she said. “It may also cause problems with the release a neurotransmitter in the brain called serotonin, which leads to depression.” Some symptoms of SAD include feelings of grumpiness, anxiousness, mood swings, loss of interest in activities, difficulty concentrating, weight gain and excessive sleepiness. About five percent of adults in the United States suffer from SAD, with up to 20 percent having some symptoms of the condition but are not considered efficient enough to meet diagnostic criteria for the disorder. Also, this disorder is four times more common in women than in men, Dryden-Edwards said. This disorder can be tricky to diagnose because it’s hard to tell the difference between non-seasonal depression and SAD. For a doctor to distinguish between these different types of depression, he/she may want to know if the patient has been depressed during the same season and has gotten better when the seasons change, and whether they have exhibited any of the symptoms previously stated, according to WebMD. Light therapy is the most common form of treatment recommended for SAD. This involves
sitting in front of a light box for at least 30 minutes in the morning. “This type of remedy is easy to use and its effects are noticeable in the first week of treatment. But if not continued throughout the season, the depression may return,” DrydenEdwards said. “For more serious cases of SAD, a bimodal treatment method, consisting of antidepressants and counseling, may be necessary.” To seek help for SAD or any other type of depression, counseling services are available at Sindecuse Health Center. To schedule a counseling appointment, call (269) 387-1850. Hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday. Hours on Thursday are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

New England vs. New York rematch 2012 By Nathan Palcowski Staff Reporter
On Sunday Feb. 5, 2012, The New England Patriots will face off against the New York Giants, for the right to be called Super Bowl Champions. Whether watching the Super Bowl or just watching the clever commercials, the Super Bowl has in some ways become an unofficial American holiday. Before the Super Bowl begins on
Sunday night, many like to figure out what team to cheer on before the game. This corresponds not only with students and football fans but prominent people around Western Michigan University. “Tom Brady (New England Patriots quarterback) is great in big games.” Bill Cubit said. Head coach of the WMU football team. Cubit along with WMU baseball coach Billy Gernon, business consultant for small business for WMU, John Schmitt and WMU President
Dunn are picking the New England Patriots to win their fourth Super Bowl in 12 years. The New York Giants on the other hand, have their fair share of support from professors and directors at WMU. “I think New York is peaking at the right time right now,” said Amy Seth, director of recreational services. Seth shows her support just like Leigh Ford, the director of communications who has also chosen the
Giants because of thier star quarterback Eli Manning. In addition, WMU students have voiced thier opinion about Sunday’s big game. when conducting a poll of 100 students, 67 believe the New York Giants were going to win, while 33 felt the Patriots would finish on top. “The Giants are a good team, with a good defensive line that will get to (Tom) Brady.” Heath Kebler, freshman industrial engineering major, said.
However some students, just made their Super Bowl picks on gut instinct and personal preference. “Go Patriots.” Amanda Jukabiak, senior majoring in art history, said. “I don’t watch football, I just think Tom Brady is cute.” Regardless of the outcome, Super Bowl XLVI will keep students and professors entertained as two of the top teams compete on Sunday.
“Facebook is good in regards to what it is for, networking. I think that Facebook has made people bad at faceto-face communication with people, since they are so used to writing on people’s walls.”
