EVERYTHING TO KNOW ABOUT

BLACK FRIDAY In-person shopping to remain popular this year Rohith Rao | Reporter The cold and windy weather serves as the first sign the holiday season is right around the corner.

As the festivities approach, so does the shopping season, with Black Friday serving as the first mile marker for American shoppers.

This year, Black Friday is still projected to be America’s biggest shopping day of the year in terms of shopper traffic, far ahead of the second busiest day, the Saturday before Christmas, according to ShopperTrak, a global retail intelligence company that conducts research on retailers and shopping.

“For some families, it has become a tradition,”

said Ramon Avila, marketing professor at Ball State. “They really enjoy going out and spending the day together. It’s kind of like a conquest or a hunt.”

National Retail Federation’s (NRF) annual Thanksgiving holiday consumer survey states in 2017, with 77 million consumers, Black Friday was the most popular day for in-store shopping and the second most popular day for online shopping with more than 66 million consumers, behind Cyber Monday’s 81 million consumers.

Reports show an increase in hostile and prejudiced activities against Jewish individuals in Indiana, United States Andrew Harp, John Lynch Assistant News Editor, Reporter Wisconsin high schoolers seeming to be heiling Hitler along with the deaths of 11 people from the attack on the Pittsburgh Tree of Life Synagogue could be part of a larger trend of increased anti-semitic behavior in the United States.

Anti-semitic incidents appear to be on the rise in the U.S., according to a report from the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) and a report from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).

The ADL report, “Audit of Anti-Semitic Incidents,” showed a 57 percent increase in incidents of anti-semitism in the United States between 2016 and 2017, from 1,267 incidents to 1,986. Indiana saw eight more anti-semitic incidents in 2017 compared to 2016.

Colleges in the U.S. also had an 89 percent increase in incidents between 2016 and 2017, from 108 incidents to 204.

The ADL report states this information is “composed of criminal and non-criminal incidents of harassment, vandalism, and assault against individuals and groups as reported to ADL by victims, law enforcement, and the media.”

According to the FBI’s annual hate crime statistics report, in 2017, 58.1 percent of religiously-biased hate crimes were anti-Jewish, making a total of 938 incidents. Compared to 2016, this number is up 37 percent, with the number of victims affected by these incidents now more than 1,000 people.

FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting Program collected data for the report of crimes that are, “motivated, in whole or in part, by the offender’s bias against the victim’s race/ethnicity/ancestry, gender, gender identity, religion, disability, or sexual orientation, and were committed against persons, property, or society.”

SHOPPING Continued from Page 01

Considering online shopping sales, according to online shopping data compiled by Adobe, with $6.59 billion spent, 2017’s Cyber Monday was the largest ever online sales day in the United States. Revenue from smartphone transactions alone accounted for $1.59 billion of sales.

I think there’s still plenty of people out there that like to touch the product, feel the product and experience the day.”

- RAMON AVILA, Ball State marketing professor Cyber Monday online revenues still fall far behind China’s Singles’ Day, the world’s largest online shopping day, with the Chinese e-commerce company Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. alone reporting $30.8 billion in revenues at midnight, Nov. 11, this year.

Avila said he doesn’t believe Cyber Monday will replace Black Friday as the biggest shopping day, but rather complement each other as they kickstart the holiday shopping season.

NRF’s survey also states 2017’s Thanksgiving weekend saw 64 million people shopping both online and in stores, as opposed to 58 million who shopped exclusively online and 51 million exclusively in stores.

“I think there’s still plenty of people out there that like to touch the product, feel the product and experience the day,” Avila said.

In an October press release, NRF forecasted an increase between 4.3 percent and 4.8 percent in total holiday sales in November and December compared to 2017, totalling $717.45 billion to $720.89 billion, with NRF President and CEO Matthew Shay giving a healthy economy and strong consumer confidence as possible reasons.

Avila said while retailers advertise exclusive items on Black Friday, not everything is priced below cost. He said retailers also hope consumers make impulse purchases.

Avila recommends shopping early on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving as a strategy to avoid the crowds.

“Stores are trying to slip into Wednesday and get people in there to come in and shop before Black Friday,” Avila said. “The shelves have to be totally restocked on the day before Thanksgiving.”

ShopperTrak predicts that this holiday season, the hours between 2 and 4 p.m. will be the busiest on the weekends, with 4 p.m. being the peak, similar to 2017.

Avila noted 2018 would be a “fantastic” year for holiday sales with 32 days between Thanksgiving and Christmas, the highest possible number of shopping days. Thanksgiving falling on Nov. 22, the earliest possible day, last happened in 2012 and

Stores are preparing to handle the crowds on Nov. 23, 2018, for Black Friday shoppers. In-store shopping is expected to still be a popular option this season. PEXELS, PHOTO COURTESY will next happen in 2029.

“When you have the shortest days, that really worries retailers,” Avila said. “Some retailers will get 50 percent of their [annual sales] between Thanksgiving and Christmas. If you have a bad Christmas, it’s hard to make up for those other 11 months.”

Toys Forever Models & Hobbies, a hobby shop in downtown Muncie, makes a third of its annual sales in November and December, said Brandon Mundell, Ball State alumnus and president of the store.

Census Bureau data states that in 2017, hobby, toy and game stores made $5.6 billion or 30.1 percent of its annual sales in the months of November and December.

Mundell said his store does not have a strong online presence and does all of its retail in-person.

“We’ve tried some online retailing, but we found that we were spending a lot of money and not making a lot,” Mundell said. “So we backed away from that.”

Mundell said store officials were spending a couple thousand dollars per month on maintaining and building the store’s online presence but were only generating $200 to $300 a month.

“People buy online in big places like Amazon and Walmart. They don’t buy [online] in small stores,” Mundell said. “We’re just one fish in a huge pond.”

Mundell said he finds that shopping local is as good and competitive as the Internet.

“It’s about the experience. You cannot replicate what we do online,” Mundell said. “[On] the Internet, the picture and the price is all you get.”

Continued from Page 03 The course introduces and expands on the core beliefs of Judaism for members of the Jewish community and people who are interested in the faith.

“The attack in Pittsburgh made a lot of us realize that we’re not as safe as we think we are, and I think at the same time, we don’t want to get overly paranoid,” Phillips said. “This was one bad actor in Pittsburgh. One bad person who did all of this.”

On Monday, a junior prom group photo reportedly taken last spring and then posted on Twitter, shows a group of high school students from Wisconsin’s Baraboo High School giving the Sieg Heil, a victory salute used by Nazis.

Since then, Baraboo superintendent Lori Mueller said the school district and Baraboo police would

investigate the photo, according to the Associated Press. The photographer said the students in the photo were not doing the salute, and that the picture was taken right before the students were about to wave.

“I think that most people are just uneducated and unaware,” said Morgan Sanchez, the president of Ball State Hillel, a Jewish student organization. “I think that for most of society, when we don’t know about something, the unknown is what we fear, and that sparks anger.”

Sanchez said she and other members of the Jewish community were glad to have the support of members of other faiths in the wake of the shooting. She also said the current U.S. presidential administration is a factor in anti-semitism. “[President Trump] has really sparked hatred towards many other groups, not just Judaism specifically,” Sanchez said. “[The Trump administration] has made differences more prominent and has had a negative connotation, when

in reality, we should embrace those differences.”

President Trump has faced criticism in the past for comments following a 2017 rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, where white nationalists, neo-nazis and farright extremists protested the decision to remove a statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee in the city.

Violence escalated at the rally, and would claim the life of counterprotestor Heather Hayer. Trump later said, “... you also had people that were very fine people, on both sides.”

This sentiment conflicted with other Republicans like Sen. Marco Rubio and House Speaker Paul Ryan, who condemned the white supremacists’ actions. Trump refused to back down from his comments, saying in a later interview, “There is blame on both sides,” according to Associated Press.

Cases of anti-semitism in the ADL report are categorized as harassment, vandalism and assault.

between 2016 and 2017 in Indiana, but there were no reports of assault.

There also were 163 bomb threats against Jewish organizations and institutions in 2017.

Indiana is one of five states in the nation that lacks anti-hate speech legislation, the other four being Arkansas, Georgia, South Dakota and Wyoming.

Phillips said the modern political climate is not entirely to blame for the rise of anti-semitism.

“I’m hesitant to blame the current administration for any of this, and like I said before, this guy in Pittsburgh, he’s the one who bought the gun, he’s the one who entered the synagogue, he’s the one who pulled the trigger,” Phillips said. “Nobody else made him do that.”

Nonprofit opens vending Wastewater Treatment Plant treating water with U.V. light machine for homeless Liz Rieth Reporter As temperatures dip below 30 degrees, the homeless community in Delaware County may struggle to stay warm, but a local nonprofit wanted to change that.

With more than 5,400 homeless in Indiana on any given night, according to the National Alliance to End Homelessness, Bridges Community Service opened a vending machine that offers necessities, rather than food, on Oct. 31 outside of a Muncie Fire Station, located at 421 E. Jackson St. “[We want to] reach people out on the streets,” said Karee Buffin, fund developer for Bridges Community Services. “This is for someone not in the shelter.”

The vending machine offers items such as blankets, toothbrushes, hats and gloves. Instead of money, the machine needs five tokens from Bridges Community, located at 318 W. Eighth St. Some people that come to the nonprofit are uncomfortable asking for these items, Buffin said.

The machine offers a way to get warm clothes with “no strings attached,” she said.

“I always think when it gets cold of the homeless on the streets,” Buffin said. “It motivates me.”

The machine lies between the YWCA and Christian Ministries. Buffin said it’s in an area with a high traffic of homeless people.

“We have so many people that go unseen,” said Kait Williams, YWCA director of shelter services. “[The vending machine] has the special things that the homeless population of Muncie really needs.”

YWCA, which offers a women’s shelter, will benefit from the vending machine, she said.

Executive director of the men’s shelter at Christian Ministries Andrea Smith said the shelter would also benefit from the machine.

Smith said the vending machine is only open at night when shelter is closed for the day.

“It will definitely benefit our men, just because

At the Muncie Wastewater Treatment Plant, this will be the first season using ultraviolet (U.V.) lights to treat water instead of chemicals.

The U.V. bulbs are submerged in the water during disinfection season, which ended Nov. 1. Water passes through the lights before entering the White River.

The Muncie Sanitary District Board funded this improvement to make the plant and the surrounding area safer.

While this technology isn’t new, it is new for the plant.

“We’re not the first wastewater plant to use U.V. But we’re able to go ahead and modernize, improve it and this has been a great thing for us,” said John Barlow, superintendent of Water Pollution Control Facility.

Before April 1, when disinfection season began, the plant used chlorine gas to treat the sewage water before it entered the White River. It would have as much as 20 tons of chemicals on the site at one time.

Along with chlorine gas, sodium hydroxide was used to get rid of E. coli, but now the U.V. lights render the E. coli inactive so it can’t reproduce.

“You get the same result,” Barlow said. “You don’t get E. coli going out to the river.”

Operations Manager Jason Ingram said he feels much better using the U.V. system. He handled the chlorine gas for nearly 15 years.

When the one-ton cylinders full of compressed chlorine are empty, they have to be changed out.

Ingram said there’s a risk every time a cylinder is hooked and unhooked.

“When one doesn’t connect right, you’ll get a little hit of that and everybody who’s really ever dealt with this has had a little taste. Let’s just put it that way,” Ingram said.

Ingram said this issue was not uncommon.

“It’s like a bad cough and you’re continuously doing it and you’re just trying to clear your lungs and it’ll continue through the day depending on how much dosage you got,” Ingram said.

The U.V. lights at the plant aren’t required by the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM), however, Barlow said IDEM is always looking to see improvements and it will also be easier to meet state requirements.

“Even though we’ve been very careful and very fortunate that we’ve not had any kind of issues,” Barlow said. “Removing the chemical off-site just does away with that risk.”

CLIMATE CHANGE: a possible explanation for late fall leaf colors Rohith Rao Reporter Autumnal colors are on full display, with red, yellow and orange leaves contributing to the ambiance of Ball State’s campus. However, some students are puzzled that the landscape only began to change in late October.

“It’s happening a lot later in October than I would’ve expected,” said Nevaeh Dye, a student at the Indiana Academy for Science, Mathematics, and Humanities. “It’s definitely like an earlier stage of yellow.”

Dye, who frequents Christy Woods, said she only saw the leaves change color sometime last week, and that it was strange to see them change this late.

Along with the green pigment, called chlorophyll, leaves also contain yellow and orange carotenoids, which remain hidden due to greater amounts of green coloring, according to the Department of Agriculture’s Forest Service.

Partly due to a drop in temperatures and shorter periods of daylight, the chlorophyll breaks down, the green pigmentation disappears and the yellowish color becomes visible. Chemical changes may occur, adding additional pigments that give rise to red and purple tints.

“Twenty years ago, peak color was probably a little earlier,” said John Taylor, land manager at Ball State’s Field Station and Environmental Education Center. “But … we’re right on time with the last several years.”

Taylor said the center has noted a trend for a longer growing season and warmer weather yearround. He said there is no concern with the late change in leaf colors, but rather with the cause of it — he doesn’t see how climate change could not have anything to do with it.

Purdue University’s Indiana climate change impact assessment states that trends of a warmer and wetter spring, and summer and fall becoming hotter and drier, are projected to continue.

Since 1895, Indiana’s statewide annual average temperature has risen by 1.2 degrees, or about 0.1 degrees per decade, according to the assessment.

It also states Indiana’s annual average temperature is expected to rise 5 to 6 degrees by mid-century and 6 to 10 degrees by the end of this century, depending on the amount of heat-trapping gases released to the atmosphere by human activities.

While adequate summer rains help promote color production in leaves during the fall, rainy and windy weather can prematurely knock down leaves, thereby shortening the color display at its peak, according to the website of Harvard University’s ecological research, Harvard Forest.

Fall leaves frame Shaffer Tower Oct. 29, 2018. Drops in temperature and shorter daylight hours causes chlorophyll in leaves to break down, making the green pigment disappear and expose a yellowish color. MICHAELA KELLEY, DN Purdue University’s assessment states that Indiana summers could get 7 percent less rain and warmer temperatures could lead to water stress in forests due to higher speeds of evaporation.

“Changing leaves — that’s just an observation,” Taylor said. “It’s just one more data point in this vast compilation of data that says that our climate is changing because of human activity.”

Students like Shana Welling, a sophomore in history, appreciate the warm weather in October.

Welling also said leaves have been changing color later than usual, citing climate change as a possible explanation.

“As for now, it’s really nice out,” Welling said. “And hopefully, it stays this way until early December, so we can get nice weather and not have to worry about the cold.”

According to Smoky Mountains’ interactive 2018 fall foliage prediction map, which shows predicted stages of changing leaf colors across the country, Delaware County was predicted to see peak fall colors the week of Nov. 5.

“Go outside, it’s beautiful,” Taylor said. “The leaves … are coming into their peak right now; so this is the time to go out and observe.”

According to the Calorie Control Council, Americans eat up to 4,500 calories on Thanksgiving.

Many athletes from the team said they still try to stick to their dietary plan during this high-caloric holiday.

Senior Maryn Meldrum and her family usually have a Cajun-style turkey, sweet potatoes, spinach pie and corn.

Before the Meldrums eat their meal around 4 p.m., Maryn and her dad go to a yoga session in the morning.

When she is at home, Meldrum said she doesn’t do any grocery shopping, which is important to her diet plan.

“I just eat whatever’s at home and my family eats relatively healthy,” Meldrum said. “My parents don’t eat a lot of processed foods, so I just have a lot of fruit.”

For junior Jack Luddy, he said he still attempts to follow his diet plan, but considers Thanksgiving to be a cheat day.

“Thanksgiving is full of lots of high-calorie, fatty foods that taste really good,” Luddy said. “I don’t really worry about my diet plan on Thanksgiving. A couple days a year wouldn’t hurt.”

If you want to get better, you can’t just be improving in the pool.

- JACK LUDDY, Junior swimmer worked, personally, and a lot of the guys here have all worked hard getting good diet plans down.”

Madison Hayes, a graduate assistant for Working Well, a Ball State program that provides employees with tools to empower them to proactively manage their health, said swimmers should consider eating between 500-700 calories for a Thanksgiving meal, but they should also feel free to be more lenient with their diets.

“I think it’s also about mental health and enjoying yourself,” Hayes said. “Especially for athletes that follow a really restricted diet, It’s probably a good time to let loose a little bit and enjoy yourself.”

Calories and carbs aside, Luddy said swimmers and divers feel this holiday isn’t really about eating, but being around family.

“It’s good to go home and see the family,” Luddy said. “It’s always a fun time getting together with my family, especially when I only go home twice a year.”

On a cold Tuesday night, ineligible for a bowl game and playing in front of a crowd of only 5,503, Ball State Football played with its heart on its sleeve in a thrilling 42-41 overtime win over Western Michigan.

Each person has their own unique personal background, personality and lifestyle, which can lead to a variety of traditions and dishes, especially during the holiday season.

Carol Friesen, a professor of nutrition and dietetics, said most Americans consume more than 4,500 calories, which is double

the amount both women and men need daily.

“Thanksgiving is a time when many people pull out the high-fat, high-sugar versions of family recipes,” Friesen said. “Whipped cream, butter, marshmallows, gravy, heavy cream and a huge selection of desserts, all downed with specialty drinks like spiced cider, wine, eggnog and sparkling juices.”

Families are often able to “pile on the extras” with their dishes because it is

common for many dishes to be homemade, Friesen said.

“From my perspective, the holidays are one time when more people make dishes from scratch,” Friesen said. “I know many people are ‘buying’ entire dinners from Kroger or Meijer or Bob Evans, but I could never imagine doing that. Holidays are special in my family — a time for traditions.”

The dark side of working Black Friday Each year, thousands of people take advantage of Black Friday deals from both the comfort of their homes and in stores while others have the job of stocking the shelves and checking out customers. With the holiday season approaching, Ball State students reflect on their times working and the horrors they’ve experienced. 12

Local organizations look for lending hands Students can help the Muncie community during the holidays through Ball State’s Student Voluntary Services.

Second Harvest Food Bank will provide a Thanksgiving meal Nov. 29, and it is located on the northeast side of Muncie. Students can get involved by contacting Student Voluntary Services. TREVOR WELDY, DN Trevor Weldy Reporter For some, giving and gathering isn’t always an option during the holidays, but with the help of organizations like the Soup Kitchen of Muncie and Second Harvest Food Bank, families can participate in festivities with peace of mind.

In turn, these groups need help from the community, so there are many volunteering options for students looking to lend a helping hand.

The help that volunteers offer ranges from donating time to supplies.

Loretta Parsons, the director of the Soup Kitchen of Muncie, said she knows students don’t always have time to give but wishes their time would be more regular.

Regular doesn’t necessarily mean volunteering every day, Parsons said. Instead, she said weekly participation would be ideal.

All volunteers benefit organizations like the Soup Kitchen of Muncie and Second Harvest Food Bank — two organizations that work together in many ways.

“I’m able to order food from Second Harvest, and it’s much cheaper than going to a grocery store,” Parsons said.

Parsons said all donations from the community are welcome, but the Soup Kitchen “encourages people to get goods that aren’t readily available — mainly baking goods.”

The food pantry, on the other hand, hopes to bring in more toiletry items and laundry detergent, said Kellie Arrowood,

the volunteer coordinator for Second Harvest Food Bank.

To get involved with either organization, Arrowood and Parsons both said they prefer students go through Ball State Student Voluntary Services (SVS).

Parsons said the SVS system has a database of students, as well as better communication tools which allow her to get in touch with prospective volunteers, while Arrowood said she likes the system because it allows her to keep track of who is working when and what hours they log.

Students can get involved with SVS by emailing them or calling them to get added to the list of students and plan a schedule.

Students can also respond to the emails sent out when there are volunteering options available.

This Thanksgiving, Parsons said the Soup Kitchen of Muncie will host regularly scheduled meals, but they will be prepared differently than normal.

“For Thanksgiving the past couple of years, we’ve had a family that has prepared meals with some of our regular volunteers,” Parsons said.

Second Harvest Food Bank will also host an evening event on Nov. 29 for the Thanksgiving holiday.

Parsons said the holiday season usually means student volunteering numbers go down, but that doesn’t mean those who stick around aren’t invited to help.

“Once breaks come, we lose some support from BSU,” Parsons said. “But, it provides a nice alternative for people with no commitments over the holidays.”

Two weeks after submitting their audition videos, Sammy Bredar and Ella Pittman were accepted as walk-ons to perform in “NOËL The Musical” with VenuWorks Theatricals.

The cast and crew will only have short period to rehearse together before bringing the Christmas tale to life in the onenight performance 7:30 p.m.

Nov. 20 in Emens Auditorium.

Set in modern-day London, “NOËL” is a festive musical that tells the story of a young girl named Noël in search of her mother who abruptly disappears. Along the quest to find her mother, Noël meets a group of homeless people who try to help. As they help her, she helps them rediscover their lost Christmas spirit and the beauty of the holidays.

Bredar, a freshman public relations major, first began acting when she was 8 years old and did not anticipate continuing her decade-long career into college until “NOËL.” After seeing an email about needing Muncie community members for walk-on roles, Bredar decided to send in her application, which included a headshot, a two minute video of her theatrical background and a talent demonstration piece.

She was later emailed her song for the part of Emily.

“I am so excited to perform at Ball State, especially because I am not a theatre major,” Bredar said. “I think it is a really awesome opportunity to get involved, and I am so excited to get to meet the cast of ‘NOËL.’” Pittman, on the other hand, is a 12-year-old who acts at the Muncie Civic Theatre and hopes to pursue a career in musical theatre.

She heard about “NOËL” through her mom and decided to apply because she thought it would be a great stepping stone in her journey.

Like Bredar, Pittman received her script through email for the part of Greta.

“I am excited to be able to explore different surroundings, and I hope that by doing this at Emens, when I get older I will be able to continue doing this,” Pittman said. “I am really excited for a different opportunity than I am used to.”

Actor Tess Jonas, who plays Duchess, described the musical as original, simple, warm and joyful.

“I think what’s so impressive with it is that it’s a totally original story,” Jonas said.

“It’s not based on a movie or a remake of something else.”

Irish theatrical producer Michael Londra’s first musical as an executive producer, he is excited for it because of his personal connections. He has been friends with author Eoin Colfer and composer Liam Bates for many years, and he has a 20-year background in music.

“In this world, where things are a little bit uptight, this [musical] offers a little bit of hope in your life,” Londra said.

“It addresses real problems that people have, like homelessness.

It talks about caring for one another, and it’s about offering hope to those a little less

fortunate than you.”

Actor Todd Berkich, who plays Nick, agreed with Londra and said his favorite aspect of “NOËL” is the message behind the musical.

“This musical hits home with how everybody wants, wants, wants, and we are all about consuming as a society,” Berkich said. “And [“NOËL”] is really about us finding our way again and recognizing [that] to give to others, we give to ourselves.”

For four-year vegetarian Victoria Logan, a freshman telecommunications major, dishes vary for her Thanksgiving celebrations, but she still eats around the same amount of calories.

“My grandma on my dad’s side usually makes pecan patties, a lot of vegetables [and] corn pudding,” Logan said.

Vegan Makayla Bedwell, a freshman criminal justice and psychology major, said she “eats as if it were a normal day.”

“I don’t eat the same food as my family,” Bedwell said. “They do have things like salad that I can eat ... I’m still figuring out the right way to go about a vegan Thanksgiving dinner.”

Bedwell also said she tried to make meatless meatballs from kale one Thanksgiving, but “they were not very good,” so this year she said she wants to try a new dessert dish.

While Thanksgiving eating habits vary vastly, Ball State’s wellness nutritionist Stacey Grogg said it’s beneficial to “focus on moderation,” even though it can be hard.

...but only take small portions, so you can enjoy a variety of your favorite foods without feeling miserable after eating it all.”

- STACEY GROGG, wellness nutritionist “Have that pie, have that amazing casserole you’ve waited for all year, but only take small portions, so you can enjoy a variety of your favorite foods without feeling miserable after eating it all,” Grogg said.

Grogg and Friesen recommend following dinner with some sort of physical family activity.

“Thanksgiving only comes once a year,” Friesen said. “If you eat more than usual, head outside with family afterwards … don’t just collapse on the couch.”

Ways to decorate any Thanksgiving table Alyssa Cooper Reporter

the yellow triangle to form the turkey’s gobbler.

20. Let the whole thing dry.

During the holidays, people tend to rediscover their kitchen tables by clearing off everything accumulated over the year in preparation to host family.

This makes it the perfect time to warm up the glue gun and sort through the buttons to make a few do-it-yourself centerpieces everyone can enjoy.

Here are two ideas from Pinterest if you need some inspiration:

Turkey Pot

Turkey Placemat

What you need: • Blank placemat, fabric squares or burlap • Orange, red, yellow, brown and white acrylic paint • Paint brushes Directions: 1. Place fabric square on a table.

2. Cover your left palm in orange paint.

3. Spread the fingers of your left hand out evenly and and line your thumb up parallel with the bottom of your piece of fabric.

4. Press your hand down flat on the right side of the placemat.

5. Wash the orange paint off your left hand.

6. Allow the paint to dry on the placemat.

7. Paint your right palm with red paint.

8. Repeat steps 3-6, but make sure to put your right hand on the left side of the placemat.

9. Cover your left palm with yellow paint.

10. Repeat step 3-6 again, but this time, put your yellow hand print in the center.

11. Use brown to paint a dime sized circle in the center of the hands just below the fingers.

12. Directly below that circle, paint an oval that goes to the bottom of your painted hands.

13. Allow the paint to dry on the placemat.

14. Paint two parallel lines at the bottom of the large oval in orange. Add two more lines branching off the end of the previous two to form the feet of the turkey.

15. Add two white circles in the smaller brown oval for the turkey’s eyes.

16. Allow the white paint to dry on the placemat.

17. Paint two tiny brown circles within the turkey’s eyes for its pupils.

18. Right underneath the eyes, paint a small upside down triangle for the nose in yellow.

19. Finally, add a thick, curved red line below

What you need: • Crafting or planting pot • Real or artificial leaves — maple shape recommended • Popsicle sticks — recommended that they only exceed the pot size by less than two inches • Brown acrylic paint • String • Googly eyes • Button • Glue or tape Directions: 1. Paint your popsicle sticks brown, then set them aside to dry.

2. Gather three leaves together in a bunched fashion. Fan them out with their stems attached at the bottom to make the turkey’s tail.

3. Glue or tape the stems of the leaves to the pot at the base on the back with the open part of the pot upward.

4. Glue the stacked bottoms of the popsicle sticks to the front of the pot.

5. Cut eight pieces of string the length of two pointer fingers.

6. Stack the two painted popsicle sticks so the bottom of one is over the other, but the tops are fanned.

7. Separate the strings into two groups of four.

8. Take both sets of strings and criss-cross them to form a mock bow.

9. Glue the bow on top of the popsicle sticks below the rim of the pot.

10. Glue a button in the center of the mock bow.

11. Cut a heart shape out of a leaf the same size as the button.

12. Glue the leaf above the button.

13. Glue a googly eye on each popsicle stick.

14. Allow all glue to dry.

15. Admire your completed turkey pot.

I walked into the bathroom and found that someone not only smeared a candy bar all over the handicap stall, they had also smeared their poop all over the toilet, walls and floor. There was poop everywhere. I left in disgust but had to laugh because I wasn’t the one to clean it up.”

Kelly Ritter shares her story about working at Michael’s during Black Friday in 2013. As she worked to run the register efficiently, a customer came up to inform her there was a problem in the women’s bathroom.

Charlie Magan shares his story about working Black Friday in 2016 at a Super Target in Carmel, Indiana. While unloading 20 turkeys from a shipping truck, a father chastised Magan about his daughter’s lost toy. CHARLIE MAGAN,

I have personally been Black Friday shopping.

I didn’t go during the madness, but I remember it looking like a hurricane had went through ... I also remember working the next day, and for a good two or three days after Black Friday, the shelves were empty. We didn’t have anything in the back room.

So we were sitting there, and when people would ask if we had a certain toy or home appliance, we would just have to say no.”

SERENA HENDERSHOT Senior psychology major

I ended up folding the denim table two days later. I think it was on Sunday, in the women’s section. It was that big of a mess because people had put them on the floor; they weren’t even on the tables anymore. You think people who were trying to get a sale would rush Serena Hendershot shares her story and grab stuff, and if it about working as a cashier during Black didn’t fit, return it and get Friday at Kohl’s in 2014. At Kohl’s, certain money back for it. But sales only lasted for parts of the day, but a shopper argued with Hendershot they were actually using the fitting rooms. You can and her manager to give her the sale after the designated times, even though exchange it, so why are advertisements clearly stated the you trying stuff on?” restrictions. MICHAELA KELLEY, DN

Full Dis-Chlo-sure

‘25 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS’: What happened?

Chloe Fellwock is a freshman advertising major and writes “Full Dis-Chlo-sure” for The Daily News. Her views do not necessarily agree with those of the newspaper. Write to Chloe at cfellwock@bsu.edu.

I am a mild-mannered person. It takes a lot to steam my vegetables.

I am not one to complain, but I believe that a line has been crossed, and when these things come up in life, you can defend Chloe your beliefs or be a coward. And Fellwock Mom didn’t raise a coward.

I love Christmas. It’s a time I Columnist, Full Dis-Chlo-sure look forward to every year. I started planning the Christmas decorations for my dorm in August, much to the chagrin of my roommate, a strong advocate for giving Thanksgiving credit where credit is due.

Kelly Clarkson’s “Grown Up Christmas List” has made me cry multiple times within the past week and I’m eating a Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cake as I write this.

So, you can imagine my anger and confusion when I saw the schedule for Freeform’s “25 Days of Christmas” marathon this year.

First, I want to make it clear that I understand why Freeform may have struggled this year. AMC bought the rights to several movies that typically make the cut, including “Elf,” “The Polar Express” and “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation.”

They also bought the rights to “The Santa Clause 2” — just that one for some reason.

Not “The Santa Clause” or “The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause.”

So, I understand that they couldn’t put many of our favorites on the docket.

That being said, I’d like to know which cottonheaded ninny-muggins thought that “Life Size 2” was a Christmas movie. I have no issue with the movie, but how can you possibly say that’s appropriate for Christmas?

Nobody has ever woken up on Dec. 25 and thought, “You know what we should watch? ‘Life Size 2.’”

“The Family Stone” is a good one, but why is it airing twice in the same day? Freeform couldn’t find any other movies to fill in space? Considering that Freeform calls “Lion King II” a holiday classic, it could’ve filled in any movie it wanted.

I just want to know what happened.

Did someone forget that the list was due that day, look through their neighbor’s VHS collection and just pick the first few they saw? Did they forget to search “Christmas movies” and check to see if these were, in fact, holiday films?

I realize that the tone of this piece comes off as bitter and vindictive. I promise this isn’t the true intensity of my feelings on this. “25 Days of Christmas” was never a huge thing at my house anyway. But, I am miffed on behalf of those who did hold it near and dear and now might not get to see their favorites this Christmas.

Either way, Christmas is about so much more.

We will be alright. I will have a merry Christmas, and I hope you and your loved ones do too.

Now go watch “The Family Stone” twice.

FOOTBALL Continued from Page 08

But the Cardinals kept fighting. A back-and-forth game would head to overtime. A 2-yard pass from Plitt to redshirt junior tight end Kyle Schrank and an extra point from senior kicker Morgan Hagee would give the Cardinals the lead. The Broncos would find the end zone, but failed on a two-point conversation to allow the Cardinals to squeak by with the one-point victory.

Alongside the thrilling win, 10 Cardinals played their final game at Scheumann Stadium, as it was senior night. For Hagee, he was sitting on the brink of the record books, and he barely knew it.

“I wasn’t aware of it until I was in the hotel earlier,” Hagee said. “I read an article Ball State Sports put out, and I had just stumbled upon it. I didn’t know about it till right before the game.”

With an extra point attempt in the late second quarter, Hagee passed Ian McGarvey for most extra points made in a career with 123. Hagee would knock in six extra points on the night to lift his career total to 127.

“It means a lot to be in the record book and have my name up there with some of the greats,” Hagee said. “Ian McGarvey is a close family friend of mine as my dad was his kicking coach for a long time. I saw him go from high school to Ball State and see him set that record.”

Along with Hagee’s record-breaking finish, the win was the Cardinals’ first victory over the Broncos since 2013. Since then, the Cardinals have been outscored by the Broncos, 203-68. The Cardinals’ last overtime victory was over the Broncos in 2012, 30-24.

“This was an amazing atmosphere for my final game,” Hagee said. “The way the game went, and it was even more special to beat Western, especially from last year where they stomped us. To come back and do that to them felt so good for everyone on the team.”

With the Cardinals’ season coming to a close and having one final contest against Miami of Ohio, the team lived in the moment on that cold, dark Tuesday night. Belting the Ball State fight song for the first time in a month.

“If you could’ve been in the locker room and hear the emotion when we sang the fight song together, that’s special,” Neu said. “All the hard work, blood, sweat, tears, training camps, 6 a.m. workouts and you get to sing the fight song, that’s special to me. When you win and get a chance in that locker room together, you get on a knee and pray, you get up and start singing that fight song. That says everything I need to know that these guys love and care about each other.”
