As October begins it signifies the start of flu season. People six months and older are recommended to get a flu shot to help stop the spread of sickness during the cold and flu season. The Wellness Center offered flu shots to faculty, staff and students Oct. 11. The Visiting Nurses Association of America (VNAA) administrated the shots by providing reasonably priced flu vaccine? “We can go to college campuses,
churches, nursing homes and malls to provide services to help people to prevent the flu,” said Debbie Eddy, RN from VNAA. Flu shots are available at the Oklahoma County Health Department from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. This year’s formula protects against three strains of influenza, including H1N1. Attendees should bring their shot records, and some may qualify for fee waivers based on income or Medicare.

Throughout October the Wellness Center will be holding the Fourth Annual Treadmill-athon. Students, faculty and community members are encouraged to participate in the event and challenge themselves to reach the 26.2 mile goal. “It’s really an event that I came up with as a challenge and as an incentive to give people something that is obtainable but also a challenge at the same time,” said Director of Health and Wellness Activities, Chris Leland, “people think about a marathon and they think 26.2 miles and think it’s really daunting and they have to come in and do it all at once, which they don’t. Leland chose October due to the lack of vacation time. The Wellness Center is open during Fall Break for those who wish to put in distance on the marathon. The response to the Treadmill-
athon in the past has been huge, according to Leland. “The first three years we’ve done [Treadmill-athon] we’ve had over 200 to 250 people sign up each time, said Leland. According to Leland, some participants forget once they sign up, because they don’t normally come in, but about half of the total finish it. “The first three years we did it we had someone finish in the first day every time. It was the same guy two years in a row. He would come in at 6 a.m. when we would open and he’d just get on the treadmill and he’d go all day. He would walk a little, jog and run; he would just kind of vary it, vary his speed and things like that,” said Leland. One of the major reasons the event was started was to get people to become active and take advantage of the Wellness Center. “If people want to come into the facility for a specific reason, whether

Food and Fashion make sporting events a breeze Fo o d As football season gets going, the grocery stores get busy. The secret to having a great tailgate party is to make a plan so you don’t forget anything. Choose foods that can be cooked in advance and transported to the event in a crock-pot or charcoal grill. When it comes to tailgating, forget the serving utensils, finger foods are the best. The food can be as simple as hamburgers and hot dogs. Check out the recipe below for some quick sliders. Chipotle Mayonnaise Sliders Chipotle Mayonnaise: 1-cup mayonnaise 2 chipotles in adobo sauce 1-tablespoon adobo sauce ½ lime, juiced Salt and ground black pepper Sliders 1 to 1½ pounds ground chuck Salt and ground black pepper Add all the ingredients to a food processor. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Do this preparation ahead of time so it’s less to do. Once you get to the tailgate site, preheat the grill. Form the meat into 2-3 ounce portions, packed tightly. Make sure to add salt and pepper

for seasoning. Place the sliders on the grill. Wait until they are nice and crusty on the first side, about 4 to 5 minutes and then flip and cook another 4 minutes. When the sliders are about done, top with desired cheese and close the grill to start cooling off. Place the slider on mini-burger bun and top off with chipotle mayonnaise. After taking care of the meat, place drinks in the cooler with ice. To finish it off, the most important part is dessert. Here is a sweet and salty dessert that leaves the taste buds wanting more. Frito’s Peanut Butter Bars: 10 ½ ounces corn chips 1-cup white sugar 1-cup light corn syrup 1-cup creamy peanut butter 1-cup chocolate chip morsels Before opening the Frito’s bag, start crunching the chips into small pieces. Spread the corn chips over greased 10 X 15 inch pan. In saucepan, bring the sugar and corn syrup to a boil and stir the peanut butter until smooth. Pour over the chips evenly. Let cool, then spread the chocolate chips evenly over the entire pan, finally cut into bars.

Grab the chips, soda and barbeque wings, because it is time for some football. Going off to the game or watching at home with friends, try these football fashion tips to support a team and still look chic. 5. Nails: Fashion doesn’t just stop at clothes and shoes; it includes nail art as well. Paint fingernails the color of the team of choice, or try finding sparkly nail polish in team colors. 4. Hat: Instead of being dressed head to toe in sports, just add a cap with the team logo on it. It will add a touch of understated team spirit to the outfit. Remember sometimes less is more. 3.

Based on Kang’s life “I knew that if I sat around doing nothing, that no one would give me a bucket of happiness. I had to get up each day and move forward. I had to make things happen in my life,” Kang said. Kang tells about how she was shunned by people where she lived as a teenager, how she came to escape to a brothel only to be sold to Mama Sang. Other examples of her life from her book included descriptions of how she earned her way to attend high school in America, failed marriages, domestic violence, rape, the tragic death of one of her sons, and the kidnapping of another by his father. To change her life, Kang decided to change herself and her odds. From street peddler to millionaire, Kang changed her fortune in only five years.

The new political thriller “Argo,” based on a true story, was released Oct.12 following much buzz from critics. The film follows the “Canadian Caper,” the CIA mission, with Canadian officials, to extract six Americans from Iran during the Iran Hostage Crisis in 1980. The six had escaped from the American embassy after it was taken over by protesters of American support for the royal Shah of Iran, who had been deposed by revolutionaries a year earlier. The movie begins with the escape of the Americans into hiding at the Canadian ambassador, Ken Taylor’s, (Victor Garber) home. Plans began to take shape at the state department for an exfiltration, after Canadian officials gave an end date for refuge. CIA agent Tony Mendez (Ben Affleck, who also directed the film) is called in and formulates the “Argo” plan; it’s presented to the Secretary of State by his manager (Bryan Cranston) and greenlighted. Mendez travels to Hollywood to establish fake credentials for “Argo,” a “Star Wars” rip-off film. He enters
Iran with fake Canadian passports, provided by Canada, to extract the “houseguests,” now Canadian filmmakers. The film is suspenseful and shows a continuation of Affleck’s skills in directing. The third act of the movie is non-stop and will have audiences on the edge of their seats as the refugees and Mendez make their escape. Interspersed throughout the film are lighter moments, and Affleck has described the movie as “funny, tense and heart pounding.” Scenes from Tehran, Hollywood and Washington D.C. are blended seamlessly, as the film jumps to the action happening in all three places. A surprise late in the movie ups the suspense, as the stakes increase for the group. The mission was declassified in 1997 and Mendez received the CIA Intelligence Star for the operation in 1980. The film has received high marks from critics and has become an early frontrunner for a Best Picture nomination. Now that fall has begun, it is officially Oscar season, and audiences can expect to see more of these smarter films in the theatres.

“Canadian Caper” Fun Facts - The movie used in the actual mission was called “Lord of Light.” - Concept art used in the actual exfiltration had been for “Lord of Light” and had been drawn by Jack Kirby, co-creator of the character “Captain America.” - The movie was called “Argo” for the ship in the story of Jason and the Argonauts. - The production company was called “Studio Six” after the six “houseguests.” - Jerome Calloway, a veteran Hollywood make-up artist, had worked with Mendez before in exfiltration missions. John Goodman played him in the film.
