On-site facilities provide fresh food

By Karen.Jennings iowastatedaily.com Every day someone picks up a premade sandwich or yogurt parfait made by ISU Dining without giving a thought as to where it came from. Little do ISU Dining’s customers know, it comes from right on campus.

The fresh-baked goods and packaged sandwiches and sal-

ads you see on campus come from the bakery and commissary kitchen, located just north of campus at the Knapp-Storms Dining Complex.

The bakery opened in May 1996 and has been operating for more than 14 years.

Mark Weber has been the bakery’s manager from the start. He has worked at Iowa State since 1978, making it 33 years this Valentine’s Day. “The thing what I like the

ning, companies that want the BioPreferred label on a product will submit an online application for the product.

Once the application is reviewed and qualified, they will be contacted, and redirected to the American Society for Testing Materials.

Then the product will be tested at an approved lab.

The American Society for Testing Materials will test products using radiocarbon analysis.

This will determine the amount of fossil based vs. biobased carbon in the product.

If the product should meet the minimum biobased content for their product’s category, the product will become a USDA certified biobased product.

Labels will indicate the percentage of biobased materials in the product.

Currently, there are 50 designated categories for products. Each category has its own minimum biobased content level. Products that do not fall into one of the categories must have at least a 25 percent biobased content.

However, according to Jessica Riedl, the project manager, biobased products that are part of the “mature market,” that is, products

LABELING.p4 >>

PROGRAM.p4>>

Labels to mark biobased products Consumers may see new labels this year that designate some biobased products.

The new BioPreferred Labeling program was the result of the Farm Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002. The bill required federal agencies to give preference to biobased products over regular products.

As a result of the bill, ISU Extension’s Center for Industrial Research and Service paired up with the U.S. Department of Agriculture to develop the BioPreferred program.

Steven Devlin, the program director for BioPreferred, said the labels indicate products that are made from renewable resources and not “green” products.

“The certified biobased products label is not an environmental performance label,” Devlin said. “Don’t get me wrong, there are some biobased products out there that I would consider to be green products, and there is a certain element of greenness to the whole concept of a renewable resource.”

The Center for Industrial Research and Service is responsible for reviewing applica-

The first leadership program of its kind at Iowa State, International Leadership Education and Development, is set to begin this fall.

The program was developed by Iowa State’s International Students and Scholars Office.

International students will have to go through an application process that will hopefully begin Friday, or shortly after, to participate in the new program.

The program will accept a small group of 10 to 15 students.

The academic-based, yearlong program was created from a conversation James Dorsett, director of the International Students and Scholars Office, and Tom Hill, vice president of student affairs, had about giving international students an opportunity to get involved in leadership positions on campus.

The program is designed for students who have completed at least one year at Iowa State so they can take what they have learned from being on campus and do something with it, Dorsett said. “[We’re] still nebulous about what these things will be,” Dorsett said.

Although the curriculum is still being developed, students will meet once a month or every other week to work on leadershipbuilding activities and teach students about delegating, networking, conflict management and dealing with organizational culture.

ISU professors Micheal Owen and Arnold van der Valk have been attempting to ratify the Faculty Senate’s policies regarding post-tenure review since 2009.

If all goes as planned, Owen their changes will be revealed for a vote on Feb. 8 during a meeting of the senate.

Owen is the current Faculty Senate president, and he is also the associate chairman of the agronomy department.

Van der Valk currently serves as the pastpresident of the Faculty Senate and is a professor of ecology, evolution and organismal biology.

Post-tenure review, van der Valk said, is a required policy at most universities.

Every seven or so years, a tenured professor will be brought under review so that his or her performance can be evaluated, and changes can be made accordingly.

However, Iowa State’s policy did not sit well with van der Valk and Owen.

“One of the problems with the old policy was it took quite a while and substantial effort to conduct these reviews,” van der Valk said.

The reviews are conducted by a group of peers, and according to their verdict on the professor’s conduct over the past years, a plan is made to suggest how that professor could improve.

However, Owen believes this process is

Designer Charles Nolan died Sunday after a battle with cancer.

The 53-year-old American designer worked for several prominent fashion lines, including Anne Klein, Bill Blass, Christian Dior and Ellen Tracy, and was noted for his sportswear.

He was also well known for his outspoken political beliefs and devotion to the Democratic Party. He reportedly left the fashion industry for a bit in 2003 to volunteer for Howard Dean’s presidential campaign.

Nolan’s partner of 16 years, financial writer Andrew Tobias, told CNN that hedied Sunday morning at his home on Central Park West in New York City.

Tobias said Nolan had battled cancer since 2008 with the disease beginning as tongue cancer, which then spread to his liver and reoccurred in 2010.

Screen Actors Guild shows support for Charlie Sheen A slew of celebrities at the Screen Actors Guild Awards were standing by Charlie Sheen’s side as the troubled “Two and a Half Men” star seeks treatment at an undisclosed rehab facility.

“I say good for him; there’s nothing better than seeking help in time of need,” “Conviction” star Hilary Swank told CNN of 45-year-old Sheen, whose hit CBS series was put on production hiatus while he recovers.

“Breaking Bad” star Bryan Cranston echoed Swank’s sentiment, and hopes Sheen takes his time to get healthy rather than rush right back to work. “No show is worth a man’s health, and I hope he doesn’t try to come back too early,” he told CNN. “Modern Family” star Julie Bowen agrees. “He’s a survivor, he’s a great actor, and I have no doubt that he’ll back,” she tells CNN. “He’s like a cockroach that can survive anything — but a good cockroach.”

For his part, Sheen, who had reportedly been partying before being rushed to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center on January 27 due to severe pain related to a hernia, says he’ll be OK. “I’m fine,” he told RadarOnline in a text.

Henry Cavill to star as Superman in 2012 movie “The Tudors” star Henry Cavill’s career is about to soar to new heights: The Brit actor has officially landed the coveted role as the Man of Steel in the upcoming Superman movie reboot.

“In the pantheon of superheroes, Superman is the most recognized and revered character of all time, and I am honored to be a part of his return to the big screen,” the movie’s director, Zack Snyder, says of Cavill. “I also join Warner Bros., Legendary and the producers in saying how excited we are about the casting of Henry. He is the perfect choice to don the cape and S shield.”

According to the Hollywood Reporter, 27-year-old Cavill beat out fellow Brit Matthew Goode, “White Collar” star Matthew Bomer, “True Blood” actor Joe Manganiello and “The Social Network’s” Armie Hammer for the part of Clark Kent’s alter ego.

This isn’t the first time Cavill has attempted to play superhero. He previously tried out for 2006’s “Superman Returns” but lost the role to Brandon Routh and was beat out by Christian Bale for 2005’s “Batman Begins.”

The new Superman movie is expected to fly into theaters in December 2012.

Study: Brain waves active in buying decisions Business lab allows for ‘powerful research’

By Ben.Theobald iowastatedaily.com Gerdin’s neuromarketing lab is functional for the first time after more than one year of construction.

Terry Childers, professor of marketing, is excited to continuing research in the facility, aiming to examine how brain waves play apart in consumer decisions.

“We started fall of last year,” Childers said. “I think we have a great facility. My feeling is that it’s the best facility in the country in a business school and we’re innovators in the sense that there is only one other lab like this in the country.”

Childers has been working on his research for about five years.

“We’re going to be able do some powerful research in the coming years,” Childers said. “We’re able to study consumer decision making at a

much finer level.”

Kelly Moore, graduate in marketing, has been working with Childers as an assistant since fall 2009 and is in the process of being trained on how to operate the lab since its completion in December.

“I will be responsible for recording participants’ brain waves in response to certain stimuli, as well as analyzing data,” Moore said. “The goal is to use the electroencephalogram method to understand how and why people make decisions. In the method we use electrodes in a cap that we place on the person’s head that will capture brain signals which indicate parts of the brain are firing in response to certain activities.”

The cap applied to the participator’s scalp is used to get electric signals from the person’s brain.

“We measure the current which reflects when the brain is firing to make some kind of decision or judgment,” Childers said. “So we are able to not only get information that might come from a questionnaire from

those individuals but also we can corroborate that with findings we get from the brain activities to go along.”

In neuroscience research such as this, there are two kinds of techniques that are used in the research.

“One is fMRI, taking pictures of the brain,” Childers said. “The other is electroencephalography, which is much better in terms of its ability to isolate different brain processes in terms of their timing. We can isolate less than 50 milliseconds, the pattern of activity in the brain.”

Childers has worked on several studies that he and his graduate assistants will be looking at in terms of the effects of pictures versus words have on a consumer.

“If you see an ad in a magazine or the newspaper or even on the Internet, some of it will be in graphic form, some of it will be in text form,” Childers said. “We’re interested in understanding to what extent the information that is conveyed through the picture interacts with what is presented in the text and how that in-

formation is utilized when people are making decisions about what restaurant potentially to go to.”

One study Childers conducted on dealt with studying on how well people that are highly anxious about math make decisions.

“We found that with the high math anxiety people, they’re less fluent in making decisions,” Childers said. “It seems kind of an obvious kind of finding, but in terms of being able to understand the nature of the fluency, the nature of their inability to easily process and use numerical information.”

Another study conducted had to do with how literacy affects consumer decisions.

“We’re trying to construct marketing communications that will be meaningful for those people as well as for those people who are capable of reading,” Childers said. “The information on the nutrition of food and terms of its label on the package, how that might be constructed in a way in which people that have a low level of literacy, how they can process that

information so they can make more informed purchase decisions.”

Childers and his assistants are seeking additional funding for the lab.

“We have a current grant under review at the National Science Foundation and this semester we will be in the process of putting together proposal that we want to present to a company that might be willing to sponsor our lab and provide us with additional funding,” Childers said.

The purpose of the research is to look at problems consumers are facing and after studying them be able to solve those problems.

“Part of our research looks at areas in which to increase consumer well being like in terms of issues related to obesity, consumers who are visually impaired,” Childers said. “This research will then allow us to kind of give a better sense of what kinds of hurdles and obstacles are presented in their efforts to make better purchase decisions. Hopefully we can design messages that all consumers can understand more completely.”

Pope’s Internet statements inspire Catholic student

By Thane.Himes iowastatedaily.com Pope Benedict XVI released a statement to Catholics regarding the benefits and drawbacks of the Internet on Jan. 24, focusing on social networking, blogs and YouTube.

Kevin Nennig, senior in computer engineering, is the president of the Catholic Student Community.

“I find it inspiring to listen to what [the pope] says,” Nennig said. “He, as well as the rest of the Vatican people, know all the philosophies of the church and have read the Bible and understand it a heck of a lot more than I do.”

The pope said the Internet is a great way to connect with others, but noted that Christians must be aware that their message should not de-

rive its worth from the number of visits they receive. Nennig couldn’t agree more.

“I’m very personal when it comes to my faith,” Nennig said. “I feel like it’s a lot easier to spread [the message of God] face-to-face where people can see my emotions and see how I feel about it exactly.”

Nennig also recognizes the usefulness of the Internet for mass communication.

“For initial contact, I would definitely say that a more personal approach is the way to go,” Nennig said. “But for bringing out messages or Bible verses for people that are already hooked and want to read more or something like that, I would definitely say that the Internet is a 100 percent good place to [spread the message].”

Today, there are plenty of blogs, websites, YouTube

channels and more devoted to arguments and debates. The pope said the proclamation of the Gospel requires a respectful and sensitive attitude.

“I think that with anything you believe in, in today’s society, if you truly 100 percent believe in something, you’ll probably be considered an extremist by somebody,” Nennig said. “In terms of God and salvation and all that, we, in all reality, don’t know what the right and wrong way is.”

Nennig finds it difficult to see Christian messages on the Internet delivered in an aggressive or insensitive manner.

“It’s hard, because they want to get the message across, but they’re not figuring out the correct way to do it,” Nennig said. “I think that’s a really important thing today,

because we’re so judgmental and there’s so left-wing and so right-wing and whatever else in between.”

Nennig wishes these messages were worded with more kindness, though he agrees with the general statement.

“Some of the things that are said today in general are not said in the ways that it should be said to respect other people,” Nennig said.

Nennig urges his fellow Christians to simply ignore extremist arguments on the Internet. Those types of debates can be handled much better in person, when a more authentic connection can be established, he said.

The pope stressed avoiding the temptation of construct-

ing an artificial personality for oneself on the Internet. This concern is focused primarily on young people like Nennig, who are far more technologically savvy and use the

Internet more frequently than older generations.

“Be proud of who you are,” Nennig said. “Above all, stand by your beliefs, even if you’re going against the current.”

most at Iowa State and working for ISU Dining is being able to utilize my management skills at a level where I can utilize my own training, experience, thoughts and ideas freely within the realm of guidelines set by our department,” Weber said.

Weber is passionate about his job and feels the bakery plays a significant role in ISU Dining’s daily operations.

“The bakery is an important, integral, supporting part of the ISU Dining operation,” Weber said.

“The bakery provides high-quality baking products to all of our food outlets, catering operations, outside catering clients and residential dining facilities,” he said.

The bakery is operated by 12 full-time staff, one student manager and 31 student assistants.

The products these employees make on a daily basis are used throughout campus.

“Products are used in all 23 ISU Dining’s operations,” said Nancy Levandowski, director of ISU Dining.

“We even use them in vending because we package our own products,” Levandowski said.

On the other side of the Knapp-Storms Dining Complex is the commissary kitchen, which opened in 2003.

Rae Ann Kolbet is the manager of the commissary kitchen and an ISU alumna, who graduated with a degree in dietetics in 1997.

Kolbet started working for ISU Dining as an assistant manager immediately after graduating.

She became manager in 2003, when the commissary kitchen opened.

“It was my first dream job,

The program does not offer academic credit, but students will receive a $500 scholarship from a special fund from the International Students and Scholars Office that is used to support student activities and programs.

“For future years, I would

like to find a donor to endow this program or might do some fundraising for it,” Dorsett said.

Students will receive the $500 scholarship if they successfully complete the program’s requirements, which include attendance and participation in projects, as specified.

An announcement about the program will be e-mailed to students Friday.

and I haven’t left,” Kolbet said.

The kitchen provides all the products that are needed in the C-stores, the cafes and vending machines.

The commissary kitchen has a similar-sized staff as the bakery.

The commissary employs three management staff, nine full-time staff and 16 students.

Like the bakery, most of the products made in this kitchen are seen across campus.

“The commissary makes a variety of sandwiches, wraps, yogurt parfaits, side salads, a daily hot special and homemade soup,” Kolbet said.

Since there isn’t a lot of commissary foods for them to make generally, the kitchen produces less food per semester than the bakery does and also allows for fresh products, which look and taste homemade.

While most are sleeping, they are hard at work.

Most of the employees in the bakery and commissary kitchen work 40 hours a week, and some of them are students, Levandowski said.

The first workers start their shifts at 4 a.m., Kolbet said, but their student employees don’t begin that early.

The bakery also has an overnight shift that prepares the next day’s baked goods.

There is a menu cycle for both the bakery and the commissary kitchen, which operate on the cycles of retail and residential, which are each two- and fourweek cycles, said Cameron Aisenbrey, communications specialist for ISU Dining and the Department of

“The food that is past its date is sent to Food At First, and they use the food there,” Levandowski said.

This strategy prevents food from going to waste.

However, the commissary kitchen also has its limitations.

As a general rule, the food it makes has three days from the day it is packaged, Kolbet said.

The fresh-made goods are delivered to various locations on campus throughout each day.

“We have three deliveries that are picked up from the food stores’ drivers and delivered everywhere on campus,” Kolbet said.

With all of the goods the bakery and commissary kitchen provide to ISU Dining, they keep the food fresh, which leads to customer satisfaction.

According to Riedl, there are currently 20 ISU students involved with the program, but more than 100 ISU students have been involved with the program since its beginning in 2002.

According to Devlin, the target for the program’s launch is Feb. 20.

not formative enough. Steps need to be taken to encourage professors to do good work instead of simply reviewing their process and not offering any constructive criticism as to their performance.

In 2009, Owen and van der Valk put together a task force whose job it was to investigate the van der Valk current post-tenure review policy and suggest changes. Research was done on the policies of other universities around the country to see what options were being put into practice.

One of the major changes being voted on is offering to suggest a pay raise to the budget department for tenured faculty members who are doing especially well. Another change suggested

by Owen was to have struggling faculty members work up an improvement plan themselves to present before a jury of peers.

“We wanted a cross section of people who were involved in these changes,” van der Valk said about the task force.

He also stated it was comparatively easy to get people involved in this task force because it is a direct concern for most faculty.

It’s not all good news, though. Van der Valk said their ratifications to the policy make it clear that poor performance or negligence of duties could lead to an “unacceptable performance of duties” review by a jury of peers.

One reason this kind of investigation might also be initiated is failure to provide an improvement plan as explained earlier.

These two policies used to be separate, but they could be joined soon, if only by a thin connection.

“This is slightly controversial,” van der Valk said. “It raises the possibility for a punitive outcome.”

So far reaction to the policy has been hard to judge. It has only recently been released to the public and many people have not had time to look at it in detail yet. While van der Valk would like to have the matter voted on as soon as possible, he said that a vote date of Feb. 8 is unlikely, and the matter will probably be voted on later in the semester.

Editorial

LAS needs leaders in the face of an uncertain future A third public forum regarding the Blue Sky Task Force’s report will be this afternoon, from 2:30 to 3:30 p.m., in 302 Catt Hall.

And we’d like to laud the efforts of the task force members, who were brought together to tackle an unwieldy challenge.

In fact, it’s clear that their intentions were sound from the closing line of the report’s introduction: “This report should be viewed as a first step to begin many conversations regarding the future of the arts, humanities and the social science programs at Iowa State University.”

The task force approached the challenge with these factors in mind: intellectual synergy, content, scholarly culture, disciploinary breadth, reaserch and teaching, and

inter- and multi-disciplinary approaches.

In addition to several suggestions for changes to graduate programs, new master’s and doctoral interdisciplinary programs, and pleas for instituional support for the coails sciences and humanities, what is likely the group’s most notable suggestion is its plan to reorganize the college’s existing departments.

The report generally suggests departments be grouped into two divisions: the Division of Social and Behavioral Sciences, and the Division of Arts and Humanities.

Within these divisions, then, the report generally suggests departments be fur-

ther organized into schools: a School of Psychological and Behavioral Sciences, a School of Social Sciences, a School of Humanities, a School of Creative Arts and a School of Literatures and Languages.

Task force members then tried to find homes for existing departments and programs within these divisons and subdivisons.

The report includes several variations of these divisions and subdivisions.

To many of our readers’ disappointment, the report doesn’t tackle the issue of undergraduate programs in much detail, boiling any discussion on the topic down to two paragraphs, and say-

ing simply “it was premature to make any assemssment regarding redundancies and/ or overlap in the curricular offerings.”

And that leaves a great number of questions unanswered.

Are large class sizes inherent to a “state” school education?

At Friday’s public forum, one student raised the concern of whether changes to structure within the college might affect future students’ hirability.

In her words, “If an undergraduate or a graduate student has a degree that says ‘Interdisciplinary Social Sciences,’ does that even mean anything?”

As the University’s largest college continues to grapple with a smaller budget through less and less support from the state’s coffers, slow-

to-rise tuition rates — for which we’re thankful — and the ever-looming threat of lower enrollment numbers, progress will come from, as the task force members suggest, continued discussion, but, too, from leadership exhibited by its administrators who are employed to make difficult, forward-thinking and comprehensive decisions in difficult times, such as these.

Dean Whiteford has said repeatedly in interviews with the Daily that he expects to see recommendations come before the Faculty Senate sometime around Spring Break.

We look forward to seeing those proposals, and expect many of you will be, as well, because the uncertain future of a beleaguered college and its faculty, staff and students hangs in the balance.

Obama should support Egyptians

By Rick.Hanton iowastatedaily.com

U.S. administration needs to side with the people, not a dictator

A

t this point it has been hard to miss the massive protests going on across Egypt, supported by normal Egyptians as well as the illegal opposition party, the Muslim Brotherhood.

Frankly, I can understand the motivation to finally get rid of a 30-year dictator. It doesn’t seem like he has done a horrible job as president of Egypt over the years, which is one of the reasons he has survived so long.

But the Egyptians want change, they want meaningful elections, and who are we to say that they shouldn’t have that right we take for granted?

But wait, we’re the United States, and while we supported the popular uprising in Tunisia to some extent, Obama has been hedging his bets on Egypt. Most of the experts that have been talking to the major news networks note that this is likely the beginning of the end for Mubarak.

Yet Obama and the military don’t want to see him leave.

I worry that this reluctance to condemn Mubarak and ask him to step aside will make any new leaders of Egypt more reluctant to work with the United States toward stability in the Middle East.

President Obama can work to force Mubarak to restore Internet access, but his real control is in the money that the United States provides to Egypt each year. I’m sure Egyptians would be thankful if Obama made an ultimatum with Mubarak and stated intent to withdraw the U.S.’s $1.3 billion in military funding from Egypt until he promises to refrain from running in the next election, at the very least. Maybe Egyptians would be so thankful that they would keep up their close relations with the U.S. once Mubarak is replaced.

The dark nightmare of the Western world is that a popular

revolution in Egypt will be like the popular revolution in Iran years ago.

In truth though, Egypt is likely to be civilized in its democratic aspirations, and many experts note that Egyptian politics are not revolutionary and fast moving and hope that their very professional military will moderate any transition.

My point here is that Obama and the U.S. administration need to get on the side of the people in Egypt because right now the Egyptian people understand and appreciate

our mutually beneficial relationship with Egypt. As I saw on some protesters’ signs the other day, Egyptians say, “don’t make us hate the U.S.,” showing they are not opposed to allying with America, but that they want to see more pressure from our government on Mubarak. It is true that the relationship may change and it may take time for the United States to get the same promises of help in the Middle East from the new Egypt, but by not supporting the Egyptians, we run a great risk.

Does it make more sense for us to support a doomed dictator who supports peace in Israel and Gaza, enraging his people, or to support his people in the hope that we can urge them to maintain peace in Israeli-Palestinian politics? It seems that these days the United States is willing to bend over backwards to support Israel, even when we disagree with some of their political decisions. We won’t vocally support the Egyptian people because it creates risk for Israel, but in my study

of Israel, they seem to be able to take good care of their own country in times of turmoil.

I urge President Obama to take a chance on the Egyptian people and their ability to carry the country through this time of turmoil.

Supporting a dictator who only agrees to appoint a vice president, send in the army and allow gangs and prisoners to roam the streets is a bad move. Cut his funding, get him out and allow the Egyptians to create a stronger democracy in their country.

Speech

Don’t be afraid to speak your mind, voice beliefs

I

t’s a very coddled day and age we’re living in. There is a constant debate between what is politically and socially correct.

The way you talk around your friends would be considered grotesque by any other standard.

There’s also the debate between who decides these standards — who is anyone to decide what is or is not appropriate to say. There is an unknown higher-up without a name or face, yet we all live by these standards that have been accepted as the norm. For the most part they keep people in a moral check, but it’s still astounding to think these are followed so closely without ever knowing who instilled them.

There are reasons for most of this — revolv-

ing mainly around derogatory terms. It feels as if racism will never die no matter how old it gets. People hate other people based solely on the color of their skin and not by the content of their character. Fine; I would hope Rev. King would be satisfied with the fact that people, for the most part, are able to judge only after getting to know someone and also be content with the fact that he could not convince everyone to share his sentiments.

People who harbor these feelings are few and far between, but still worth mentioning.

Blogs give people another outlet for sharing whatever thoughts are running through their minds on any topic they want. Anyone in any

state, on any campus can share their opinion and berate a country’s leader because it is within their rights. But people don’t like hearing these opinions. These opinions are detrimental to harmonious living.

But what are people so afraid of hearing; someone speaking their mind? It doesn’t matter who is doing the talking, what political side you lean to or what you do or don’t believe in.

Some higher-up somewhere wants you to keep your opinions to yourself. And the real reason why? Because silence is safer than confrontation. It’s easier for everyone to get by if nobody talks to one another. We steer clear from debate and hope nobody sparks a conversation that is

going to lead to a quarrel of words. Some believe this way of living life is “peaceful” But peaceful doesn’t necessarily mean better. It’ll just be quieter.

The sad truth is this will never be the case no matter how hard people try. People will never be kept from saying what they feel or reporting what they deem worthy of print. All anyone can hope for is rather than spark hate in anyone’s heart, these questions will instead start a dialogue for people to talk about the issues that matter most to them and have their words heard and emotions felt. And through this, hopefully, all the hate can fall by the wayside.

Crime

Police: Citizens are absolutely protected

By Thomas.Hummer iowastatedaily.com

Deception, inconsistencies often create problems for local law enforcement

A

couple weeks ago, I wrote an article detailing the assault of an Ames resident and his feelings regarding the experience. Some of his concerns involved the attention he received from the Ames Police Department. After the article was published, I had the opportunity to sit down with Scott Clewell, the officer in charge of the investigation, and Jim Robinson, the police commander, who were kind enough to tell me more about how this investigation unfolded. For consistency and privacy, I will be using the same pseudonyms I used for the original article. “When I arrived at the scene, I got a statement from Steve and a statement from a witness,� Clewell said. “The assailant (Jeff) had already run away, but I had his information, so I went to his home. He wasn’t there, and we were met with deception from the person who was home. She claimed that she didn’t know Jeff, which we later found to be a lie.�

Not surprisingly, deception is common in Clewell’s line of work. “When we’re trying to solve a case, people often try to make it hard for us, and we get lied to a lot,� Clewell said. “On top of that, we got a completely different story from Jeff when we did catch up to him, which meant we had to double check with the witness. All these things added time to the investigation.�

The assault took place Jan. 6, and the investigation spanned over the next 12 days, ending with an arrest warrant that was issued Jan. 18.

According to Robinson, this is a relatively short amount of time. “In terms of time, this investigation was average to quick,� Robinson said. “When you issue an arrest warrant, you’re talking about

taking away someone’s liberty. This is a very serious thing, and we have to make sure that we leave no stone unturned. Say, for example, that we don’t have the right Jeff and issue an arrest warrant for the wrong man. That’s when we have a real mess on our hands. You can never be too careful when you’re talking about possibly taking away someone’s rights — you need to be certain that you have the proper identiďŹ cation, and leave no room for error.â€?

In general, this caution and attention to

detail has made the Ames Police Department extremely successful. “We don’t usually hear anything negative about what we do,â€? Clewell said. “We have a very speciďŹ c way of doing things, and it works.â€?

Clewell notiďŹ ed Steve that the arrest warrant had been issued Jan. 18 —the day before my original article was published. Steve is very relieved now that a sense of closure has been brought to the situation.

For most of us, experiences such as Steve’s

would be a harsh reality shock. It goes to show that no matter how hard you try to avoid trouble and violent confrontations, sometimes they will ďŹ nd you. It makes perfect sense for this realization to be difficult and unnerving, and for that I don’t blame Steve one bit. The amount of concern in his reaction was fair and natural.

However, after taking the time to speak with two of the men working hard to resolve these issues, it gives me a great deal of reassurance to know that they’re so dedicated to what they do.

Campustown

Street vendors overlooked in LANE4 development

By Heath.Verhasselt iowastatedaily.com

Proposed plans do not represent all businesses

T

he proposed Campustown development plan has been the subject of some controversy over the last month or so. Opinions have been heard by the students, LANE4, Iowa State, a few small business owners and, on Feb. 28, the Ames City Council. There is however, one group of business owners that have been overlooked in this debacle: the street vendors. Where do they ďŹ t in? I sat down with local entrepreneur Jayson Hansen, founder and co-owner of Hungry4Huh, a “Korean-Fast food Fusionâ€? stand on Welch Avenue. Hungry4Huh is a rather new business to the Ames area. They’ve been in business since September and employ ďŹ ve. I asked him if he’d heard about the proposed LANE4 Plans for Campustown. “I have only heard about LANE4 from the article that you had presented me. There was no major public awareness that I have come across describing the project renovations that they had proposed with the city of Ames, to my knowledge. I’ve been approached by someone in the beginning asking to see our city licenses were in place, but they did not reveal if they worked for LANE4.â€?

Have you heard from any of the other vendors so far on this issue? “I’ve not heard much about the issue, however I plan to speak with the current owner of Project 20/20 (Philip) about if and how it affects his business. Bars and clubs in Campustown have already had a lot of scrutiny about serving to minors, and now things may become worse for them, along with so-called “lower class� businesses such as tattoo parlors (as LANE4 has analyzed and described as a ‘Campustown weakness’ in their market research summary report that I came across whilst doing some of my own research about their renovation talks with the city). College students are attracted to these kinds of businesses. Do you see a tattoo parlor arrangement in Main Street, Ames? I don’t think so, because they have a different crowd of customer hanging around the area. It’s always about the customer,

never about a company’s own perspective.�

Do you feel that you’ve been represented much on this renovation’s plans? “I’ve not been given the

details of the project other than from the article and doing my own research, seeing a report made by the city of Ames including a market analysis research sum-

mary conducted by LANE4 themselves. I was a little upset about the way LANE4 had envisioned their “reconstruction� of Campustown, because it seems they are wanting to try to change the Campustown area to what they feel is what a campus town should be, rather than what the general customer wishes it to be. I say leave it up to the customer market; market forces will decide if a business should or shouldn’t be in Campustown.�

What are your plans for if you have to leave your current location?

(By either the owner of the building selling, or eminent domain)? “I don’t really plan on leaving our place of establishment, unless our customers don’t want us there. You can bet that I will stand my ground and defend our position even if it means appearing before courts or having endless meetings with City Hall. I believe small business is the heart to which why capitalism works and how it can thrive, and I feel that if the city pushes to eliminate such entities from existence to give way to larger, more powerful corporate giants and chains, franchises ... I will have lost faith in the democracy for which [the] United States resides with ... “ It’s Campustown that allows businesses like this to thrive. Jayson said he plans

on opening four new locations in Iowa City, Des Moines, Chicago and Champaign, Ill. a lot of this is to do with the business and support of the students and the Ames community. It’s small businesses like these that are good not only for the Ames community but for the country in general.

Not listening to them and forcing them to do the bidding

of large businesses with deep pockets and a large motive for proďŹ t is not the answer to anything. We bring you this interview in its entirety because we at the Iowa State Daily believe the solution to our problems starts right here, in Ames. Together we can prove that working together on issues will help everyone prosper.

Men’s basketball

Cyclones gasping for air Late-game losses leave team ‘circling the drain,’ now up to team’s leaders

By Jeremiah.Davis iowastatedaily.com

J

ust two weeks ago everything seemed to be looking up for ISU men’s basketball.

They’d played then-No. 3 Kansas to a five-point game at home and had thoroughly Hoiberg outplayed Baylor.

Four games and an extended trip later, the Cyclones are starting to circle the drain.

Iowa State has lost fourstraight Big 12 games since beating Baylor on Jan. 15, Garrett and in only one of those four could the Cyclones say they weren’t in the game with a legitimate chance to win.

But with the lack of experience closing out games or a dominant, go-to scorer that can take over a game, these Cyclones have snatched defeat from the jaws of victory as of late.

“I’ve played on struggling teams, I’ve been a part of struggling teams, and struggling teams find ways to lose on different nights,” said ISU coach Fred Hoiberg. “It’s different things that contribute to it. Good teams find a way to close teams out. That’s what we’re looking for.”

Hoiberg went on to say that confidence can play a large role in adding to the struggles.

He said that keeping confidence up is key because going onto the floor with low confidence can have you beat before you start.

The first-year coach is dead-on. The Cyclones don’t know how to win a close game yet, because they haven’t done it yet.

“When you find a way to win a close game, it makes the next one easier, instead of hanging your head,” Hoiberg said.

So how are the players dealing with these tough losses? Diante Garrett and Jamie Vanderbeken have expressed frustration after the games, Vanderbeken tweeting simply, “I’m sorry,” after the loss to Oklahoma on Saturday.

“We’re doing fine,” Garrett said. “Every team would be sad losing these close games that we’ve almost had, and we’re just going to build from where we’ve been playing.”

This group simply — or not-so simply — needs to learn how to win. But that task is an extremely tall one given the circumstances surrounding the team right now.

Over the next few weeks the Cyclones will face No. 6 Kansas, No. 11 Texas A&M and No. 8 Texas — probably the hottest team in the nation — all on the road, and No. 13 Missouri at home. That’s a tough stretch for any team to endure, let alone one that is coming off four disheartening losses in a row.

Iowa State will have to take on this tough slate of opponents with an even more depleted roster than they already have.

Calvin Godfrey will miss games against Colorado, Kansas State and the matchup in Lawrence against Kansas. Jordan Railey is facing potentially bigger problems for his New Year’s Eve car accident that may involve an OWI charge.

Even the guys who are able to hit the court are struggling. A team that survived its nonconference season on shooting 3-pointers has hit only 26 percent of its 3-point shots over the four-game losing streak. If the Cyclones hope to win any of the remaining games on their schedule, that will obviously have to improve.

The list of negatives this team is facing continues to grow. They get knocked down and slowly get back up to take another hit, like an aging prize fighter full of pride.

It’s now up to the leaders of this team — Garrett and Vanderbeken — to find their inner Rocky Balboas and keep fighting until they hear the bell.

The tough part is that the next few rounds could very well knock them out for good.

Squad preps for final CU matchup

Iowa State

By Chris.Cuellar iowastatedaily.com

Colorado

(14-8, 1-6)

vs.

(14-8, 3-4)

It’s unclear what will be thinner Tuesday night in Boulder, Colo., the high mountain air or Iowa State’s bench.

With forward Calvin Godfrey suspended Monday, the Cyclones (14-8, 1-6) are left with just six players that average more than five minutes per game. However, Colorado (14-8, 3-4) is struggling as well, with both teams riding four-game losing streaks.

“We’re not playing complete basketball games right now,” said ISU coach Fred Hoiberg. “You can’t continue digging these holes, we’ve had double digit deficits in all but one league game. It’s tough, especially when you’re as thin as we are.”

It will be the final Big 12 meeting between the two divisional rivals in Boulder with the Buffaloes moving to the Pac-10 Conference next season, but the Cyclones and their experienced coaching staff won’t miss playing in the mountain town.

“I could do it all day, I don’t really get tired,” said senior guard Diante Garrett with a smile. “Even coach Fred said something about it when he went over there to play against the Denver Nuggets, he said it’s a different kind of air. He’s been telling all the freshmen that they’ll have to get used to it.”

While Godfrey’s suspension will leave Iowa State even more short-handed than usual, his impact on the stat line reflects Iowa State’s necessity for big nights out of its starters.

Iowa State’s starting five of Garrett, Melvin Ejim, Jake Anderson, Scott Christopherson and Jamie Vanderbeken log 80.6 percent of the team’s total minutes and nearly 87 percent of the team’s points per game.

“We’ve just got to come out and be the aggressor right away,”

When: 8 p.m. Tuesday Media coverage: FSN Rocky Mountain Cyclone Radio Network Notes: Both teams have lost four straight games.

Colorado has the No. 14 offense in the country, led by two guards, Cory Higgins and Alec Burks.

Colorado is playing under first-year coach Tad Boyle, and have their scoring up 6.4 points per game from last season.

Iowa State is scoring 76.3 points per game.

Garrett said. “The last few games the other teams have just jumped on us right away and we’re battling and fight back, but it’s kind of hard to do that in the Big 12.”

The Buffaloes and the Cyclones are both under first-year coaches, with Colorado trotting out Tad Boyle and the philosophy change should impact the game itself.

Under former coach Jeff Bzdelik, Colorado ran the back-cut oriented Princeton offense and ground out series with the opposition to the tune of 74.6 points per game.

With Greg McDermott at the helm for Iowa State, the Cyclones scored 72.6 points per contest.

With current coaches Boyle and Hoiberg, Colorado puts up 81 points per game, good for 14th in the country and ISU is scoring 76.3 points per game, good for 42nd.

“They’re playing an exciting brand of basketball, they’re playing up-tempo,” Hoiberg said. “[Boyle] has done a wonderful job.”

Higgins was the team’s leading score prior to Burks’ arrival, but now the senior puts up 16.2 points per game, just under Burks’ 19.8 point average.

“I think they’re the best backcourt duo in the league and also the country, I think both those kids are pros,” Hoiberg said. “Those guys create a tremendous mismatch and match-up problem for us so we’re going to have to go out there and compete and probably junk it up during the game and force them to take contested shots.

The NCAA’s initial signing period for football begins Wednesday, with prospective student-athletes putting their names on the National Letter of Intent for the 2011-’12 school year.

It will be coach Paul Rhoads’ second full class at Iowa State, with signings expected from high school players from recruiting hotbeds

Texas and Florida.

The Cyclones will likely continue Rhoads’ trend for signing more speed for the program.

Bowers said Tau’fo’ou did take a preliminary breath test with a result greater than .08 blood alcohol content, then declined to take a Datamax test, which is the follow-up test for an OWI. The OWI charge occurred at the corner of Lincoln Way and University Boulevard, and Tau’fo’ou was transported to the Story County Justice Center.

Tau’fo’ou, a former junior college linebacker, transferred to Iowa State in 2009, and made 20 tackles last season in limited action due to injury.

The redshirt junior was found guilty of ďŹ fthdegree theft Sept. 17, 2009, for an offense involving computer equipment at the Memorial Union.

Tau’fo’ou was Iowa State’s starting middle linebacker last season until his injury.

Sports Jargon of the Day: Start and park

SPORT: NASCAR DEFINITION: Cars that qualify for a NASCAR event but only compete in the race until the ďŹ rst caution period in order to save on the cost of running the entire race, while collecting the money for qualifying for the race.

Teams can make nearly $100,000 just for ďŹ nishing last in an event.

USE: Start and park cars ruin the legitimacy of NASCAR events and go against the spirit of the sport.

Team continues to gain momentum

By David.Merrill iowastatedaily.com ISU coach Bill Fennelly recently called the remaining games on the schedule a 12-game season for the Cyclones. That approach seemed to have helped as the Cyclones are on a two-game Bolte win streak. “We talked about a 12game season after the Texas A&M game,�

Fennelly said. “We got through the ďŹ rst two, and that’s where we’re going.â€?

Senior shooting guard Kelsey Bolte had one of her worst performances of the season in the win over Missouri. She managed to get 12 points but shot just 5-20 from the ďŹ eld, including an 0-7 mark from behind the 3-point line.

In past games, this would spell trouble for the Cyclones, but the past week has seen a turnaround from her supporting cast. Junior point guard Lauren MansďŹ eld has scored in double ďŹ gures in the last three conference games, and sophomore forward Chelsea Poppens pulled down a career-high 19 rebounds against the Tigers.

Freshman Hallie Christofferson also had one of her best games of the season, logging 18 points, nine rebounds and three blocks. “It was great,� Bolte said. “I felt like every shot I missed fell into either Poppens’s

or Hallie’s hands. Poppens had a great game.

She’s one of the hardest workers on the team.

She deserves to have a standing ovation when she comes out.�

MansďŹ eld thriving in conference play Through the ďŹ rst six games of conference play, MansďŹ eld is averaging eight points and four assists. She is impressing Fennelly in the way she is running the offense.

Point guard is the most critical position in Iowa State’s offense and was also the biggest question mark coming into the season.

Since MansďŹ eld has taken over the position, the questions have ceased. “Lauren has had a really good year,â€?

Fennelly said. “She takes pretty good care of the ball, she’s a solid defender and she’s learned our system. The best position to play at Iowa State is the point guard; it’s the worst position to play too, and she’s been at both ends of it.�

Chelsea Poppens retrieves a rebound Saturday. She led the team in rebounds with 19. Photo: Tim Reuter/Iowa State Daily

Cole contributing off the bench While she may not be the starting point guard, junior Chassidy Cole has shown why she is one of the team’s most valuable players.

In the last two games, she has 13 assists and no turnovers.

Her assist-to-turnover ratio is at the top in the Big 12 at 7-1.

“She’s made a huge difference in a lot of ways,� Fennelly said. “She’s assumed the role of our best defender. Accepting a role on the team is hard for a young person. You have to be willing to understand that I’m not going to be the star.�

Commentary

An existing dynasty versus a potential one

By Jeremiah.Davis iowastatedaily.com

It’s hard to be disappointed with the Super Bowl XLV matchup. Well, unless you’re a Bears fan.

The Green Bay Packers, a team almost everyone under the sun is calling the hottest team of the playoffs, are set to take on the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday in Dallas. But you knew that already.

You also probably knew that these are two of the most storied franchises in the NFL. Between the two teams, there are nine Super Bowl wins in 11 trips, with the Steelers coming in a 6-1 and the Packers 3-1.

There’s the obvious history as well: Ray Nitschke, Bart Starr, Paul Hornung, Vince Lombardi, Brett Favre, Reggie White — just to name a few — for the Packers. Chuck Noll, Terry Bradshaw, Lynn Swann, the Steel

Curtain and Jerome Bettis for the Steelers.

All of the above names either are or will be in the Hall of Fame. Traditional football fans ought to be ecstatic about this matchup, but not for what the game represents in terms of the past, but the present and future.

The Steelers come in as a mini-dynasty of their own. Three Super Bowl appearances in five years, winning both previous attempts, has to put them on the dynasty level. They’ve been every bit as successful as the Patriots of the early 2000s, and that’s looked at as a dynasty.

Ben Roethlisberger and company show no signs of slowing, although they could be running into the one team that could derail their train of success.

The Packers, led by Aaron Rodgers and

Charles Woodson, have every chance to become the next great dynasty in the NFL. They have every piece in place.

Just look at the roster and you see several of the top names at their position right now in the NFL. Rodgers is suddenly being regarded with Tom Brady and Peyton Manning.

Woodson is in the middle of a potential Hall of Fame career. Clay Matthews is as dominant a pass rusher as you’ll find, and A.J. Hawk is no slouch at linebacker either.

B.J. Raji is jiggling his way into stardom on the defensive line. And the receiving corps is arguably the best in the business, collectively.

If Ted Thompson and his management group can keep this core of players together,

they have no reason — or excuses — to be anything worse than a wild card team every year.

Make no mistake, Bears and Vikings fans are scared. They may not admit it, but it’s true. I believe, if he continues the way he’s going, both fan bases will dread seeing Rodgers come to town the way they once did Favre.

The potential dynasty in Green Bay all depends on the outcome Sunday. If they win — as they’re favored to — then watch out NFL. If the Steelers win — like I think they will — then Mike Tomlin’s group sits alone atop the current dynasty list.

And who knows, maybe this isn’t the last time we’ll see this matchup in the Super Bowl. Football fans can only hope.

Three things the Steelers, Packers must do to win

By Jeremiah.Davis iowastatedaily.com Heading into the Super Bowl XLV matchup between the Packers and Steelers, there are several things each team will have to do to win. We decided to narrow it to three things both teams must do if they want to win.

Packers:

1. Establish the run — This will be easier said than done against the league’s best-run defense. The Steelers allowed only 62.8 yards per game in the regular season and only allowed a team to rush for more than 100 yards twice, both in losses to the Patriots and the Jets.

If the Packers can get James Starks rolling, they’ll be in good shape.

2. Protect Aaron Rodgers — James Harrison can strike fear in any quarterback. But if the Packers hope to get their offense moving like they did in the divisional game against the Falcons and their first offensive drive against the Bears, Rodgers must stay upright so he can get the ball to his outstanding receiving corps.

3. Get Big Ben on the ground — The QB has a build like a tight end and has a reputation of being very hard to tackle. The Packers have elite pass rushers in Clay Matthews and B.J. Raji, so if they get to him, they must do so with more than one player. A blitzing Charles Woodson just won’t be able to tackle Roethlisberger by himself.

The longer Big Ben stays on his feet, the longer he has to make a big play.

Steelers:

1. Get the center comfortable — With rookie center Maurkice Pouncey likely out for the Super Bowl, the Steelers must make sure backup Doug Legursky and Roethlisberger have perfected the QB-center exchange.

The center is vital to the success of the offensive line, calling out assignments and identifying defenses. Pouncey has played well all season, and without him Packers noseguard Raji could have a big game.

2. Lock down the Packers’ receivers — Make no mistake, Greg Jennings, Donald Driver and the rest have been the key to the success of Rodgers. Each one fits a sim-

Score a clean car!

ilar mold — big, tough, strong and with great hands. They go over the middle with little regard and rarely drop the ball. If the Steelers secondary can prevent this group from getting open, Rodgers will be forced to make plays with his feet.

3. Keep Rodgers from making plays with his feet — It seems as though everyone is on the Rodgers bandwagon these days, and he’s playing as well as anyone.

Locking down his receivers sounds nice in theory, but Rodgers can also be deadly running with the ball. If the Steelers can keep him from hurting them with his arm, they must also keep a spy on him to prevent him from running around on them.

Satisfying Super Bowl sliders

By Caitlyn Diimig AmesEats Flavors Writer

To make black bean sliders you will first need to drain the can of black beans. After this, mash together the beans with the rest of the ingredients. Then form the mixture into slider size patties. Cook the patties in a skillet for about five minutes on each size. Top with guacamole and serve burgers on pre-packaged whole wheat slider buns.

All across the country this year Sunday, Super Bowl parties will be serving heaping portions of meat with orange, plastic-looking cheese on a sesame seed bun. That all-American burger is the standard for football cookouts, but this year try standing out from the crowd and make tasty, biteThe Barbecue Burger: For those who like size sliders.

When forming your hamburger patties, mix in the green chilies with the meat. Add in the cayenne or chipotle pepper if you want extra heat. Divide the patty in half and add pepper jack cheese into the center. You will need to tear the cheese into smaller pieces. Then combine the halves of meat, so the cheese is hidden. Grill the sliders and serve on brioche rolls or pre-packaged slider buns. For toppings nix the ketchup and mustard and try salsa instead.

Support your team with color-coordinated food

By Kelsey Schirm AmesEats Flavors Writer The first Sunday in February is almost here. It’s time to start planning the yearly Super Bowl party.

You’ve got the location, the guests and the flat screen TV, but what about the food?

The right food can really make your party a success. You could serve the usual: barbecue smokies, meat and crackers and chips and salsa. But why not spice up the party and try a color themed food menu?

There are several ways you can theme your party. This year the Super Bowl teams are the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Green Bay Packers. Try using food based on the teams’ colors.

You could go with a green, yellow and black theme in order to support both teams, or you could specialize to whichever team you want to win the Super Bowl. Whether or not your favorite team made it to the Super Bowl, it will be easy to throw together a color themed party. Here are some ideas based on each team’s colors: Green Bay Packers: Cheese/Fruit Tray: Try using a variety of cheeses such as cheddar, Colby Jack,

Super Bowl parties can be a great time for football, friends and food.

With these few “Eat this. Not that!” recommendations, you can be sure to make healthier choices without ‘fumbling’ on taste.

Potato chips: Lays ‘baked’ varieties of Ruffles and traditional Lays are the healthiest options. If you are not a fan of baked chips, Ruffles Reduced Fat is a good choice when compared to Ruffles and Wavy Lays. While the few differ by only 30 or so calories, the calories add up quickly when snacking over a long period of time.

Chip dip: With so many different brands and flavors of chip dip available, we compared French onion varieties.

The healthiest choice is to choose “light” varieties. If you are adventurous and enjoy preparing food, making your own dip is best. Use original Greek yogurt where it calls for sour cream – Greek yogurt boosts protein without adding fat.

Tortilla chips: Tortilla chips vary slightly, but not significantly enough to make a specific recommendation. This one

Fit Coffee Tip Skip the whip and you can save around 100 calories and 10 grams of fat right off the top.

is up to you! Look for chips with at least 2g of fiber and are made with whole grains or corn.

Salsa: Salsa is typically a healthy choice as long as it is not sweetened.

However, if you want to take the nutrition up a notch, choosing “black bean and corn” varieties are the best way to boost the nutrition and get the most from your salsa.

Cheese dip: In comparison to Tostitos Queso, by purchasing a can of Campbell’s ‘fiesta nacho cheese soup’ and preparing it using less than the recommended skim milk to your desired thickness, you can save 10 to 40 calories, or more, depending on how much you eat!

Frozen pizza: Pizza is a vital party food. When it comes to a quality frozen pizza, Freschetta’s Naturally Rising Supreme pizza is a healthier option over DiGiorno’s Rising Crust Supreme pizza with 320 calories per slice compared to the 360 calories in DiGiorno’s pizza.
