Tiny Turnout for PSGA Elections BY HENRY D. GASKINS Although less than to percent of the UW-Parkside student body voted in the student government elections on April 5 and 6, a clear victory was given to TYson Fettes as he achieved 302 votes from students. In second place was write-in candidate Andrew Scheeler. who received only 64 votes. This year's elections director for PSGA, Michael Scerpella, said he was happy with the turnout and that he thought the elections were run wen. despite his not having any guidance on how to run the election. Scheeler had a different opinion. but he did not blaine it directly on Scheeler W35 elected into the senate for next year.

"as'l;istam.ptofe;sor Katherine Gregor). that J entirely misquoted or fabricated much of the information that I wrote in the article. GregQf1reguesled that I refrain-from using a tape recorder during the 'interview, so I did not have a'more accurate souro;.:e than m) notes to write the article. If 1 were allowed to tape record the interview, J am sw'c I would have accrued accurate infonnation and this retraction would not be lleccssary. As an Engli~h major with concentration in writing. f am serving my required internship as a reporter for this paper. I have always stressed doing a professional job 011 my multiple contributions I have given to The Ranger News, even when TQriginally. began writing articles for the newspaper back when r was a freshman and sophomore. so jfl wrote an unprofessional pjece, then [am glad to do the professional act of retracting the story. J n my article, Prof. Gregory wished to,note these numerous errors: * She is an assistant professor and not an associate professor. * It wasn't a trip to South America or the Dominican Republic that influenced her topic. It was anending a conference in Jamaica that helped her to make the connections around migration. * The sex workers did not have to cut through her bullshit, because she didn't have any that was passed against them. * The book was on her doctoral and not "oral" dissertation, which was something she reworked for !8 months after she starred teaching at Parkside. * She did not say the word "pile" to represent a social group comprised of gays, lesbians, and transgendered people. * She bas gathered video-based ethnographic data on Islamic youths and Hip Hop in the Netherlands for another project for the past 3 112 years. I hope this retraction is found satisfactory, and in the future, I will take further steps in verifying my information.

I By Brett Houdek ... deOOO@uwp.edu Automatic e-mail forwarding on the UW-Parkside's e~mai1system has been phased out. Incoming students used to I be able to select an option when I setting up their UW-Parkside \ e-mail account that would allow them to automatically forward any e-mails sent to their UW- Parkside account to their primary e-mail account. Due to some incidents in the past, however, this automatic e-mail forwarding option is notavailable anymore. It was Ann Marie Durso, UW.Parkslde's chief Information officer Forwarded W1PZ Creates Position when automatic forwarding was ~ of Diversity Director In place due to some failure or • filtering that occurred on the third party mail system or in shipping the messages over the ~xtemal network," . There have been many cases in the world that have dealt with identity theft and worries ov~r information security. By taking away the automatic e- mailing option from all incoming students, Uw-Parkside can keep track of all the e-mails that are being sent and received. This prevents the chance of some unwanted intrusions within the e-mailing system. However, continuing students who selected the automatic forwarding option when they opened their UW- Parkside e-mail account will still be receiving the forwarded e- mails. This option was not taken away from continuing students. What else has been taken away from the e-mail system? According to Ann Marie Durso, it has only been "the automatic forwarding that is being phased out to allow for receipt and storage of e-mail messages on the ParksideMail Servers so we can confirm delivery and recover messages in the event that [they] are accidentally deleted or lost." To further prove why some heavy duty management was needed on the e-mailing system. UW-Parkside's Computer Network Services has taken note of (be e-mail trends at UW- discontinued at the end of the spring 2006 semester. This process could be a little confusing for those who don't know what the automatic forwarding is all about. For example, I have a UW-Parkside e-mail address (houdeOOO@uwp. edu). I also have a primary e-mail account at home (watchit@wi.rr.com). When I first started at UW-Parkside 1 set up my UW-Parkside e- ' mail and selected the automatic forwarding option. If one of my professors e-mailed me at UW-Parkside, then the UW- Parkside e-mail address would automatically send it to my home e-mail account. I could then open and read every single e-mail that I received from either account on just the one at home. which is the main e-mail account that I check. Ann Marie Durso, UW- Parksidc's chief information officer, said that there have been "many instances of important messages such as payroll notices for our staff or specific faculty or administrative office messages to students that never got delivered See E-mail, page 3 BY ROBERT ROSATI ,0soI001@uwp.edu WfPZ amended their con~titution to create the position of diversity director during a weekly meeting on Sept. 2L It was voted upon and passed unanimously by all the members of WIPZ staff who were in attendance at the meeting.

Lenny Klaver, vice chanceUor of University Relations and Advancement, said that the relationship. between Dhaliwal and UWParkside goes back "probably six years ago ... where be had sought to help get sotne students fro~ his native Pup-jab. India to enroll here at campus, and {hestudents enrolled and were accepted and went to class here, and since that time, he has been the so-called sponsor of several international students from India oming here." Dhaliwal is wealthy now; however, he was not born into a I life of luxury. He grew up as the oldest I son of a farmer in Punjab. Along with his two younger brothers, he accepted the responsibilities· that canle with tbe family business. Once his classes at the Government Rapduman College in Nabha were finished for the day, he went home and ltelped lout around the fann.

Two years later. in 1979, he spent $30,000 to buy his first gas station at north 17th street and west North avenue. Dbaliwal sold the gas station later in the-same year and purchased two more. Over the next seven years. he bought 12 more gas stations. lWenty years ago. Dhaliwal bought 50 more gas stations. . The $4.5 million donatIon will be used toward expanding the Communication Arts building. That expansion will be called Dbaliwal Hall: however. it will not be named only after Dhaliwal.

The rest of the campuses in the UW Sy"lem decided to take up-residence in Milwaukee because there were Indian grocery stores as well as a Sikh house of worship that made him feel comfortable. Twenty nine years ago, Dhaliwal leased a gas station, which was located at north 35th srreeet and west Garfield avenue for $300 a month, using the money he and his wife eamed by doing various odd jobs.

JAIMEZ JaimeOOI@uwp,edu Israel is oppressing the Palestinian ~ people, and suicide bombings are the strongest single method Palestinians have of fighting back. At least that's what "Paradise Now," directed by Hany Abu-Assad, seems to be saying. As a piece of art it is brilliantly carried outin the docudrama style. The camera is e lplaced in the most appropriate places to show INablus and Tel Aviv, as well as the action. The writing and dialogue seem perfectly natural, }\ JAIMEZ, edt! . 00 call it a snatch, a box, vagjtla$ aD(! women's to lhem were the focus INK series production of Monologues." A favorite tIlllin4 off Broadway, tbe enigmatic "'iftll the UW-Parksidecarnpus ~ showings on Oct. 6; 7, and 'Directed by Virginia Hartley, the "'Ildsrblo~w had an audience of over one Parkside students, alumni, and unity members. 'The Vagina Monologues" is a presentation of facts, interviews, and 8lOries collected by Eve Ensler and was produced at UW-Parkside with three performers, though it has been produ!:ed others with only one, as was !be original performances featuring Eve Emler,or with a new performer for each separate woman whose voice is heard. nothing out of place. The acting is smooth and crisp, wholly believable. There.is humour at just the right moments to lighten the mood, keep the attention of the audience, or push the story. The climax features a brilliant use of sound and close-up to truly signify the importance of the scene. As a film, "Paradise Now" is worthy of all 13 awards it has received. However. the critical praise it has received for being so impartial as regards the IsraelilPaJestinian Conflict is undeserved. Much like "Der Untergang," which was attacked for making Hitler seem to much like a normal person, so to does "Paradise Now" present two suicide bombers as just normal people; not monsters or fanatics,just normal. This film tries very hard to present it's heroes, Said (Kais Nashif) and Khaled (Ali Suliman), as everyday people just stepping up to do their duty to the cause. We see them laugh, love, spend lime with their families and in every other way be no :.~., '.1, different than anyone else in the world. Then we see them prepare to kill innocents. The rightness or wrongness of their actions are not for me to decide, but it is clear that Hany ~~ Abu-Assad wants these two men to be shown n as heroes. Something easily done as a bus with i~ children is left alone, but one filled with military H is targeted, thus lightening the disapproval about 11 who is killed. There is a clear reference to Said 11 and Khaled's sacrifice during the last meal they n are expected to enjoy when the camera pulls H back and the men take their place in the middle i., i.. of a very clear image that mirrors Da Vinci's 'Last Supper."

As for the speakers there was a little left wanting. Jessi Miller who was featured in two accented roles showed talent but was unable to let herself fall into the roles and so was not enurely convincing. Aimee Miller started out some what cold, but gradually carne to life as she came to and nailed the infamous moaning scene. Christina Stevens was noticeably the best of the trio, but she and the others could not seem to avoid the occasional flubbed line. As a whole the UW- . Parks ide performance of "The Vagina.

H the south end of the field, the Rangers had trouble defending UMcRolla's Will Kirby as he scored the first goal of the game at 37:04 followed by his teammate Brandon Moore's goal at 39:16. "The first twenty minutes of the game we played well. We were attacking and going at them, [but] we didn't finish OUf opportunities. The last 25 minutes of tbe first half, we got pretty sloppy, and defensively, we lost OUf shape. We gave up two goals that we shouldn't have given up," said Kilps, who later added according to the UW-Parkside Athletics Web site, "We told the players at halftime that we don't deserve to win if we play like that." It seemed like a different team came out on the field after halftime. With the wind at their backs, the Rangers were ready to do what they had come to do; win.

Sixth Seed Slumps in Soccer Tournament: Cougars Claw Out 3- 0 Win Over Women Rangers BY TYRONE PAYTON PaYto004@uwp.edu The UW-Parkside Women Rangers went into the Great Lakes Valley Conference Soccer Championship Quarterfinals on Saturday, OCl. 21, following two consecuti ve conference losses. The dual defeats dropped UWParkside to the sixth seed in tile GLVC tournament, forcing them into an away game against the third-seeded Cougars of Southern Illinois University-Edwardsville. The previous regular season match between these two teams ended in the Rangers' only tie this season, with a final score of 0-0 back on Sept. 15. The twin goose eggs posted by the teams back in that match-up were from uneven attempts, as the Cougars produced only two shots on goal compared to the Rangers eight shots on goal. The results were different for the GLVC quarterfinal match: as the Cougars cut the Rangers shots on goal in half this time around, while UW-Parkside gave up three goals from SIU- . Edwardsville's five shots on goal. The Cougars pounced on the Rangers early, tacking their first goal at 6:42. Before intermission came tile second goal for SIUEdwardsville, and tile final goal was tallied in the second half. With the loss, tile Rangers season came to an end, finishing their season with a final lO- 6- t record. On a bright note, this year became the seventh consecutive season that the- Rangers posted double digit wins under head coach Troy Fabiano. The young squad of Rangers, in which there were no senior players this year" was led throughout the year by junior forward Laura Eide who had II goals, three assists, and 25 total points. Eide, who made the GLVC first team, also had teammates like freshman Brittany Kaim.who grabbed second team honors.

On Friday night, parents' night at UW-Parkside, the Rangers started off the match strong with a 30-24 game one win over the Bellarmine Knights.

ONTIVUE FROM FRONT PAGE TheR9ngerNews JACK IS BACK You DON'T KNow JACK took first place. Xiong is a 22- year-old junior and an Accounting major at UW-Parkside. Rory "Griz" Wagner and Brian "The Rock" Theard won second and third place in the tournament, respectively. This was Xiong's first time ever playing in the school's tournament, but he was good enough to make it into the semi-finals. Since the semifinals involved the top eight student billiards players within the men's tournament, Xiong had to play, and hope to do. well, against the seven top competitors. Xiong ended up being the only semi-finalist to go undefeated, winning all seven games. "It felt good [to do well against my peers]. [ didn't come here to win. [just came to have some fun, but I think 1 did pretty good," Xiong said. Xiong never really. played pool until, about three years ago, his uncle bought a pool table. Xiong would then go to his uncle's house every now and then to have fun by shooting some pool. Xiong's interest in the game took off from there. Of White, Xiong said, "He's funny. [like that guy." Devin "Hammer" Rogers, a 19-year-old sophomore and competitor in the men's billiards tournament, said that Jack White "has the kind of sense of humor that, if you're not like him and you don't really get [his humor], then you might take it the wrong way_ But he is a genuine guy. He's an incredible pool player and a class act." The two winners of the tournaments, Xiong. and Lippold, each had to play a finals match against Jack White on Friday, October 13. Lippold played the pool shark at 10:30 a.m. and Xiong played him at II:OO a.m. Over 30 students and cornmurtity membess showed up to watch the morning's events. . About playing White, Lippold said, "I really don't care [what happens], because f know I'm gonna lose anyway." Despite their best efforts, neither Lippold nor Xiong could beat the professional. White awarded plaques to the top three players in each of the two tournaments. After the tournaments and the brief award ceremony, While decided to stick around a little longer to show everybody a few trick shots. He left shortly after 1:00 p,m. Giving advice to all the UW-Parkside students, White said, "The most important thing [you] can do [while at school] is get that piece of paper. You gotta get that piece of paper." White continued expressing the importance of students attaining their college diplomas. "The reason why you come to school here is so you get jobs when you get out," While said. The Atlanta, Ga. school system has told White that they consider him a great philosopher, since he gives such good advice to students.· White said, "When you see a [nice] truck going by, you can either clean it. drive it, or own it. That's why I suggest you get that . piece of paper." BY BRETT HOUDEK houdeOOO@uwp.edu Jack White, the "Clown Prince" of Pocket Billiards, has visited the UW-Parkside campus numerous times. White currently lives in California but was born in New York on March 9, 1931. His family has been in the billiard supply bus mess for more than 57 years. His dad was a professional billiards player and his uncle was a world champion at the game. He was first introduced to the game of pool at. the young age of eight. White immediately caught on to the game, and that s~l)le year a more experienced player challenged him to a pool match. White ended up beating his competition, winning 35 cents. When White returned home, his mom found out that he was gambling and she spanked him. However, when he carne home one night with $465,000 that he had won throughout the week, his mom said, "Now you're cooking. Now you're talking." Playing billiards and pool was White's only money maker. He never had to get a job. His pool playing got him on many TV shows, magazines, and newspapers throughout the world. White is still the only Billiards player to have played for a President of the United States in the White House. He was invited to the White House in the 1960s by Lyndon B. Johnson as a kind gesture of thanks for entertaining the military troops. White has authored several books on pocket billiards and trick shots. He has played in tournaments in the U.S. and in many foreign countries. The 75-year old professional has also been a billiards instructor for years. He has been in great demand at colleges and universities. White has received numerous honorary degrees, including Doctor of Poolology at the University of Notre Dame. Master of Billiard Science at the University of Alabama. a PH.D at Fort Hayes State Kansas College, Bachelor of Billiards at Utah State University, and a PH.D at the University of Georgia. The pool shark has also been popular among the military installations for over 30 years. He still appears at shopping malls and centers, promoting home pocket billiard tables. White's greatest honor was being invited to entertain returning POWs at the Memphis Naval Air Station Hospital in 1974. White still does two major lours each year, a spring tour and a fall tour. His fall 2006 tour ends in mid-to-late ovember. The popularity of the "clown prince" landed him meet-and- greets with many famous celebrities, including Tom Selleck, Ann-Margret. Fred Astaire, Vincent Price, Tony Danza. Brad Pitt, Cindy Crawford. Angelina lolie. the Harlem Globetrotters, Halle Berry. Muhammad Ali, and the Dalai Lama. White has also ridden in Air Force One. .White gives lessons by appomtmem. The lessons would cost each individual over $800. However, White now sells a DVD of himself teaching the game of pool. The DVD includes every session/lesson that he'd nonnallv teach an individual one-on-one, but it i... ani}' $10. While said that "everyone. honestly. should get a DVD. NOl only will you save over $800, but most of the money goes toward charity as well:' Jack White is currently 10 the middle of his fall tour, touring in 41 states and seven foreign countries. He just got back from touring South America. He won't know what hi, spring tour will consist of for another couple of weeks. Regarding the students he meets at UW-Parkside. White said. "I reallx like the students here a 101.-I really care abOut them:' He jokingly continued. "But don't tell them that. or else it'll blow my image:' Anyone wishing to keep in touch v Ith Jack White. or order a DVD, may write to Jack White. 5700 W. Wilson St. # 47. Banning.

MORGAN m?rga017@uwp.edu The UW-Parkside State offhe School address was given in Main Place at noon on Wednesday Feb, 28. Brian Graziano, the President Pro Tempore of Parkside Student Government Association started the address. He said..that PSGA is happy with how active the student government is and how it listens to the students. He said that student government is doing all it can in regards to the interest of the students. The senat6rs may not agree with each other on certain issues. but they all agree on improving the educational experience of all UW-Parkside students, he said. From there he turned the floor over to Vice Chancellor of Student Services -and Dean of Students Dr. Stephen Mcl.aughlin. McLangWin's main point of emphasis Wason the OW System Board of Regents, which will be meeting at Uw-Parkside on March 8-9. The Board of Regents consists of three committees (Business and Finance, Education, and 'Physical Planning) in which 17 members participate. The schedule of events can be found on the UW-Par'kSide Web site. He encourages all students.to take part in this. The Board of Regents only makes its stop at UW- Parkside about once every decade. In addition to the Board of Regents, McLaugWin said that about an additional 100 people will be on campus during this time. He made the point to be patient with parking. Students should come earlier to find a parking spot on March 8 and 9. McLaugWin also advertised the ceremonial ground breaking of the new Student Union, which will be held on the north side of the Union at4:40 p.m. on March 8. If everything goes according to plan, the $100 million project should be completed by the fall of 2009. In - addition to the new union, the roads and parking lots will also be going under renovation. McLaughlin also mentioned the $40 million expansion of the Communication Arts building. From here he "Stop the violence. Break. the silence." The chanting could be heard from the Union Cafeteria as the marchers Circled the room, grabbing attention from anyone buying or eating food inside. After the cafeteria, Rainbow Alliance moved on to Union Bridge, through Molinaro Hall, and up to the Library, when the chanting suddenly stopped. As.Dr. Stephen McLaughlin, UW-Parkside dean of students, addressed Main Place during' the Slate of the School address, the marchers quietly fanned two rainbow- colored columns on each side of the seats. Standing quietly and calmly, they displayed their signs, waiting for their voices to be heard. Before marching through campus, forcing students to hear their chants and read their signs. the supporters of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender (LGBT) community gathered in Union Hall. Greeting each other with hugs and smiles, the marchers came equipped BY MATTHEW MACOMBER macom002@uwp.edu Continued To Page 6 "Come get that good copy!" with flags, t-shirts and signs, displaying such messages as "Gay? Fine by me," "Queer," and "You wanna tear this one down too?" Although it was a pleasant atmosphere for the supporters who gathered to protest, they were led to this rally under very unpleasant circumstances. Carly Surber, a leader of the protest, explained what led to this rally and why they were gathered to march on the State of the School address "LGBT students" staff, and faculty are subject to hate speech in classrooms and in the hallway; posters are ripped down. Homophobic graffiti is rampant across our campus, which creates an atmosphere of violence, of impending violence that every LGBT community member of this campus can feel or has experienced." Another UW-Parkside student marching in the protest, Matthew Sinnen, explained why he decided to come and support the rally ''I decided tomarch today because it is time for the problems facing the. UW-Parkside LGBT community to be brought to the forefront and to Continued To Page 7 2 March 6,2007 The Ranger News 900 Wood Road Kenosha.

I spent my activity hour Wednesday in Upper Main Place with many other people watching the State of the School address. Actually, I started by watcbing the procession of marchers Walking from the Union chanting with signs in bang. I watched two of our reporters listening intently and recording the events. [watched two more members of our staff circling the scene and taking pictures. What I thought at that moment was how proud I was of our. staff. It's one of the images that comes into my head when I think of journalism: The event breaks, and everyone jumps into action. The idea may be a little sensationalized in most circumstances, but the dedication inherent in it is real and that's the part that impresses me more than anything.

However, [ think that the only way to really improve tho quality of the outfit is to surround oneself with people dedicated to the idea and wiJling to work to achieve the desired outcome. 1'think for the most part, this is something that precipitates from the top of the organization. OnJy a few people are going to want to strive to achieve if the people in charge are apathetic. This is something that took me a while to realize and accept, but it's something that [ think holds true in most situations, One of the most promising things that I've seen in The Ranger News recently is the influx of people who seem committed to investigating and breaking the news. I think that this has been reflected in our publications. The stories we've had have been getting progressively better and more well- researched. Our Question of the Issue has been more thought-provoking in recent weeks than it's been in a while. Our pictures, comics, and a variety of other aspects of The Ranger News have seen improvement. I think the foundation we've been laying is more solid than it's been for a while, and T think it's a foundation that will support a progression in the quality of our product.

The budget: see where student money goes Jimmy Gibbs gibbsO 14 @ u wp .edu Every year, both new and returning students of UW Parkside pay tuition in order to attend classes. As most are familiar with the process already, the school year is broken up into two semesters. Each semester is broken up financially, with students paying a particular amount of tuition based on the number of credit hours they will be taking during the given semester. So where does student tuition money actually go? One of the charges that are added into a student s tuition every semester is known as segregated fees, or seg. fees. Seg. fees are defined as "mandatory charges in addition to instructional fees that are assessed to all students to provide funds for recreational, cultural, and leisure activities and groups that are not funded through other state appropriations." This definition can be found on the Cashiers office web page on the UW Parkside website. Of these segregated fees, there are two categories: allocable seg. fees and non-allocable seg. fees. The allocated seg. fees are designed to support student activities and programming. They are then distributed among the various Parkside organizations, such as WIPZ Radio, Rainbow Alliance, Student Organizations Council and many more. The funds these organizations receive from the allocable seg. fees are not fixed, meaning that they are subject to change every year depending on what each organization spent the following year, how much the organization actually needs and so on. There are also the non-allocable seg. fees. These fees are intended to support fixed financial commitments such as debt services, contracts and student service programs. These fees can be referred to as fixed in a sense. In other words, they are a long term commitment that needs to be paid off" over time by the university. One example that Scott Menke, Controller Director of Business Services here at Parkside, provided was the new Student Center. The upgrades and building of the new Student Center cost upwards of $1.8 million, but the annual seg. fees collected from all students was around $1.6 million. In order to pay for the Student Center, and also allow for funds to still be distributed to the other organizations and areas in which they are intended to support, the full amount must be paid off over time. Each year, then, a set amount is designated from the seg. fees to pay off the debt owed for the Student Center. The seg. fee distribution is decided upon each year by the Segregated University Fee Allocation Committee (SUFAC). The seg. fees are broken down by credit hour in terms of what students actually pay. Students pay $42.50 per credit hour, which comes out to $508.80 for 12 credit hours, and a grand total of $1,017.60 for the year. This amount is subject to change each year, because enrollment must be taken into consideration along with what the overall budget is for the year. Not all students are subject to paying these seg. fees. Some examples of those that are not required to pay segregated fees include athletes, military veterans and TEDU students to name a few. What is important to point out, however, is that not all student athletes or veterans are exempt from paying the fees. Menke refers to this as what is known as the "Seg. Fee Remission." When looking at student athletes, what this remission means is that each year the Athletics department is given a fixed number of student athletes that they can bring in that would be exempt from paying the segregated fees. This year that number is 145. This is the same for veterans, and the rest that fall under the "Seg Fee Remission." The reason for this is for recruiting and enticement. Basically, if a potential student is undecided about coming to Parkside, a $1,000 off tuition promise is intended to sway their decision towards coming to the university. This is the same tactic used for some out-of-state students that attend Parkside. Several out-of-state students are able to pay in-state tuition fees as opposed to out-of-state fees (which are obviously much higher) in order to get them to attend and keep them attending Parkside. Finally at the end of the school year, the left over seg. fee money is dealt with. If there is any left over money at the end of the year, it is put into a "bucket," as Menke calls it. The money from this bucket is then put towards the next year. By doing this, it lessens the seg. fees that students will be paying the following year. The process then starts over again the next year, meaning all the left over money from the "bucket" is taken into consideration, the allocated and nonallocated fees are examined and SUFAC will determine the new amount to be paid for seg. fees by all students not exempt from paying. Congrats on a great season, ladies! Good luck in the GLVC Tournament! Segregated fees, what does Parkside use them for? Doria DeBartolo debar004@ u wp .edu Segregated university fees (SUF) are charges, in addition to instructional fees, that are assessed to all students. These fees support student services, facilities, activities, and programs here at UW-Parkside. This year full time students paid $1,016 in SUF charges for the year. Although overall tuition costs differ between resident and nonresident students, SUF charges remain the same. Since last year, these charges have increased from $988 for each student per year. There a few cases in which students are not required to pay these segregate fees, including many student athletes, international students, and military veterans. Although all military veterans are exempt from paying these fees, this does not automatically apply to all international students and athletes. Each case relies on specific scholarships offered. When these fees are waived for one student, the fees for that person are subsequently dispersed onto the remainder of the student body who are subject to paying this part of tuition. There are two types of SUF charges: allocable and non-allocable. Non-allocable fees are not subject to change. They support fixed financial commitments, including contracts, debt service, and the university student service programs. They cover the costs of facilities such as the Student Health and Advising Center and the new weight room in the Student Activities Center. Allocable fees support student activities and programming and are, however, subject to change each year. Segregated University Fee Advisory Committee (SUFAC) is responsible for allocating these monies to student organizations such as WIPZ, Ranger News, Rainbow Alliance, and PSG. Before the closing of the Child Care Center last year, which was funded by allocable SUF, there was a dispute in regards to where the funding was coming from. It was noted that the majority of the people who were using this facility were not UWP students, but UWP faculty and staff. There were only around 30 students using the Center, and the rest were all faculty members. Student body president Annalee Sepanski, who sat on SUFAC last year, commented that "Our main concern was why are we [students] paying for something that is used mostly by faculty?" She added that last year there were almost 1,000,000 dollars of requests from student organizations, but SUFAC only had about 100,000 to give. SUFAC bases their budgeting decisions on presentations of individual budgets by student organizations at their meetings. SUFAC also has policies to follow. For example, only a percentage of money may be applied towards student travel, as it is preferred that most activities are happening on campus. There are also penalty fees applied to the budgets of student organization who present late.

The Ranger News meetings are every Friday at noon in MOLN 107. All students and faculty of UW-Parkside are welcome to attend. Have any comments, concerns, questions, or story ideas? Please e-mail us at: rangernews@ uwp.edu. Like to meet with us? We are located in the Student Center in room L101A. Wow you guys, we haven't had a chat in quite some time. To be honest...I really missed you. We had a very long dry spell over summer, and now we're just getting back to print in November? It'll be worth the wait, I promise. And I dont break promises. Like, I'd be the perfect person to make an Unbreakable Vow with (from Harry Potter for you muggles). But anyway, enough about that. I'm just really excited to be back in print, and I've got some fun things to discuss with you. The Ranger News wants you! We do! I don't know if you've glanced at that staff column to the left of this fine block of text, but our numbers are dwindling. It's sad, really, because the paper is finally getting good again! You said it yourselves...I didn't make that up. My mom also told me that, but whatever. If you like to write, come write for us! We're a really fun group! Sometimes I even bring cookies to the meetings! Don't like to write? Fine! Can you point a camera and take non-blurry photographs? You can? You're hired! Artists! We're always looking for comics and graphics to run in the paper. Show us your stuff, we've been to the Rita! We know you've got mad skills. Guys, TRN is an organization, and orgs look really good on future resumes. Go ahead, ask your bosses, I'm sure they all worked for a college newspaper in their past. If they didn't, I'm sure they had a really hard time getting the job they currently have. They're probably not even qualified to be your boss, let's be honest. I'll drop that, for now, but just think about it. Don't mind me, I'm just planting the seed and hoping you all grow into beautiful TRN flowers. What else happened recendy? Halloween! I hope you all had a super spooky day, I know I'm still coming down off my candy high. Want to see something scary? Take a look at my blood sugar. Ba dum tsss. I didn't dress up this year, because I was actually laying out this very newspaper on Halloween! But if I were to dress up...I'd probably go as the greatest newspaper editor that ever lived. Or maybe that pug that dressed up like Miley Cyrus' wrecking ball music video. I say the pug did it becamse I'm sure that was its own original idea, with no outside help from its owner. Are you still reading this? I'm impressed. I assumed you'd take one look at this chunk-o-words and flip on over to the back page for a couple laughs. Speaking of laughing, we've got some really great additions to the newspaper this semester. You're going to love them all. For starters, we're doing horoscopes! The planets are in order, young Ranger, and you're very impressed! What else can I throw at you guys? We've got an advice column! Make sure you check that out. It's real advice from the wonderful staff Doc answering real student questions! Skeptical? Don't be, he's got a PhD in divinity AND sass. As always, we'd love to hear some feedback from you and see how you think we're doing. Positive comments are our favorite, but negative comments are welcome, too. Just don't be too mean, we do have feelings, after all. Our contact information is listed to the left, again. Something else you'd like to see in the paper? Tell us! More importantly, share this newspaper with everyone you come across. I expect to find these bad boys laying all around the southeastern Wisconsin area. Hair salons, restaurants, banks, grocery stories. Go ahead, we approve of littering, as long as it's TRN littering. That was a joke. Give a hoot, don't pollute. Last but not least, I just wanted to thank you all, from the bottom of my heart, for picking up our newspaper and reading it every issue. You're the reason we do this. Don't let the interns fool you, they don't do this for the grade. They do it because they love ink-stained hands. As long as you keep reading, we'll keep writing. Have a spectacular week, Rangers, and please enjoy. Wednesday November 6 Landscapes Jean F. Lanners Collection** 9:00AM-4:00PM E. H.

November 6,2013 The Ranger News 3 Quoth the raven, Poe Open Mic was fantastic tribute to great literature Parkside guest speaker on climate change and energy policy in America College Republicans invite representative from E&EI Energy and Enterprise Alex Bozmoski to speak on campus over to the microphone to mournfully cry, "Nevermore!". Both myself and the other audience members found ourselves laughing, almost spitting out our apple cider. Other participants included Jill Miatech from the Kenosha Public library, who was more than excited to read some of Poes lesser known works. Chernouski took the stage again to read the chilling poem "Annabel Lee", which was followed by a reading of some personal poetry that had been written in response to Poes work. Afterwards, Chernouski teamed up for a second time with another fellow English major Katie Abbott for what was arguably one of the nights most creative performances. Chernouski read a short poem while Abbott stood slightly to her side, signing the poem simultaneously in American Sign Language. Both received a hearty applause from the audience for their unique rendition of Poes works. When those who had formally signed up to read were finished, others were invited to peruse any available books for works that struck their fancy, or just to socialize and enjoy the delicious apple cider and cookies. All in all, the Poe Open Mic event was a great opportunity to further explore the mystery behind Edgar Allan Poes masterpieces while celebrating the written word. Not such a dreary event after all. Sorry Poe! ties have already taken place, it all isn't over yet! If you're interested in the Edgar Allan Poe Big Read series, head to the UWP library for a complimentary copy of "Edgar Allan Poe: Great Tales and Poems", or check out the UWP library's website for more information. Don't become "insane with long intervals of horrible sanity"! Learn how to avoid this situation by reading some Poe! Katlynne Davis davis086@uwp.edu "Once upon a dreary Oct. 18 evening, Parkside students, weak and weary, gathered in the dim light of the Den to ponder over many quaint and forgotten books of lore." Ok, so it's not as good as Poes masterpieces, but the reference was unavoidable. The Poe Open Mic event, held in the Den on Friday Oct. 18, invited students to come and read the works of American literary legend, Edgar Allen Poe. As a part of the UWP and Kenosha libraries' Big Read series, the Poe Open Mic was one of many events held on campus celebrating the haunting poems and fiction of Edgar Allan Poe. Hosted by the international English honor society Sigma Tau Delta-Tau Psi, Parkside students, faculty, and others gathered together in the Den to hear some of Poes classic works read aloud. With the lights dimmed and raven decorations perched throughout the Den, the atmosphere was eerily appropriate. English major and Sigma Tau Delta member Sarah Towle began the event by reading some interesting biographical information about the author. Poe, who was born as Edgar Poe in Boston, MA. in 1809, led a life full of difficulty and misery, and it is easy to see that these themes are reflected in his writings. He died in 1849 under mysterious circumstances, leaving many to speculate that alcohol, lis passing. After some background information, Libby Chernouski, president of the Tau Psi chapter of Sigma Tau Delta, alongside fellow English major Sara Tickanen delivered an entertaining and rather hilarious reading of Poe's most famous poem, "The Raven". Tickanen grabbed the audience's attention as the speaker of "The Raven" wonders who is "rapping at his door". Once the raven was introSome great readings from the last Poe event.

He spoke briefly about rising concerns on the risks of climate change, and went on to explain his campaign's solution to this growing problem. Bozmoski believes that humans are in fact a significant contributing factor to climate risks, while some people believe that climate change is a government conspiracy. He went on to mention that in recent polls 65% of republicans say that America absolutely should or should probably take steps to combat climate change. He also says that "the majority of republicans actually want an answer to climate change, but no one is giving it to them." He believes that this is one of the reasons the Republican Party is currently losing this debate. EPA regulations and government subsidies are among some of the steps that America has taken to fight climate change. Bozmoski believes that the "climate policies we currently have in place don't work, and they cost a lot of money." Basically, "our government is deciding which companies should succeed and throwing money at them, while deciding which companies should stop polluting and forcing them." He went on to say that the US government will be telling individual power plants and eventually refineries how many pollutants they may omit. After a short overview of the current steps this country is taking and will be taking, Bozmoski stated that "every economist in the world will tell you this is precisely the least efficient way to reduce pollution." He adds that this plan will amount to "between a 100 and 300 billion per year loss in GDPT and explains that "all of these companies are losing money, and all of that money isn't going to anything good." He also said that it isn't that Obama has intentionally chosen the worst possible plan to put into effect, but he feels he can't get anything passed through congress, so he is just working with what he has. Bozmoski concluded his presentation by explaining what he believes to be the best solution to this growing problem in two parts: 1. get rid of energy subsidies and 2. change what we tax. He says that "we are currently taxing one of the only things that we can all agree we want more of - income." He goes on to say that if we want more income and less pollution, then we should have a carbon tax rather than an income and capital gains tax. "It doesn't matter if you believe that this is a real risk or not. As long as you can admit that you might want less pollution it makes more sense to tax pollution," he adds. E&EI Energy and Enterprise Initiative believe that by taxing pollution will allow the economy to grow, there will be less pollution, and we will see more jobs. In an example, he discussed the competition between geothermal and coal companies, in which case "coal is getting a free ride. They are putting all of this carbon into the air and not paying for it." Geothermal can't compete, so they go to the government for subsidies. Bozmoski says that if you made fuels accountable to their cost, you get rid of the argument for subsidies that clean fuels have by creating a "fair playing field" for all competing fuels. "It becomes a market where clean fuels compete against dirty fuels, and dirty fuels pay for their dirt." Bozmoski believes that this is the "most pro-growth, liberty enhancing, small government solution to climate change that is out there. If conservatives got behind it, the American people would overwhelmingly choose this versus the taxes that the EPA will be promoting". The Ranger News does not affiliate with a political party, and covers both sides objectively.

This year, Parkside set a school record with a whopping 208 student volunteers who participated in the event. This is nearly 100 more students than last year, and over 60 agencies were invited by Parksides Volunteer Program Committee to submit specific project requests. This national day is sponsored by USA Weekend Magazine who started the event over 20 years ago to encourage people to lend a hand in their communities. In recent years, there have been close to 3 million participants nationwide on every fourth Saturday of October. Thanks to all of the helping hands, Parkside was able to complete 17 projects for these community non-profit organizations, whilst providing a total of over 600 hours of service. Project sites from this year's mission included Windpoint Lighthouse, Petrifying Springs Park, River Bend Nature Center, Racine Literacy Council, Racine Zoo, Nifty Thrifty, Becker Shoop, Pringle Nature Center, Racine Urban Garden, Girl Scouts of Southeastern WI, Cerebral Palsy Agency, Stand Down Kenosha, Halo, City of Kenosha-Lincoln Park, Habitat for Humanity, and Village of Sturtevant. Many of these projects consisted of ground cleanup and construction. Students at sites such as Women and Children's Horizons in Kenosha sorted donations of clothing and household goods for victims of violence and abuse. The Student Nurses' Association at Parkside (SNAP) also provided blood pressure checks for veterans at Stand Down in Kenosha. Every year Parkside awards the student organization with the highest number of participants. The Make a Difference Day 2013 Outstanding Participation Award went to the PreHealth Club coming in first place with a total of 27 participants. In second place with 24 participants was the Pace Student Nurses at Parkside, and the Parkside Basketball Team came in third place with a total of 21 team members who participated. Parkside student Hannah Kowalczyk was assigned to assist with clean-up at the Racine Urban Garden along with other Pre-Health club members. She commented on her first experience as a volunteer on Make a Difference Day, "It was a blast. This was my first year participating, and I'm looking forward to doing it again next year." Join the Student Volunteer Program on Campus Connect to view more photos of this year's event, and get news about upcoming events such as Blood Drives and the Spring Volunteer Event.

Its difficult to watch knowing that in the book, the brief twenty minutes I had the luck to listen to, Valentine, Ender's sister played by Abigail Breslin, has more character development than she does in an entire film. She's been set aside for a number of strange interactions between Ford and Viola Davis' character, Major Gwen Anderson. There were moments of laughable dialogue in every interaction between every character. Even the film's finale was a broken work, where Butterfield had the chance to shine, and you can tell he wanted to, but the script just held him back. What hurts the most out of a film like this is that the potential is there to be not only good, but seriously memorable. It's hard to watch so many young actors butcher lines that were slaughtered long before they started filming. The special effects, the added bonus of seeing a film like this, are also lack luster and untamed. Swarms of ships are attacking Earth, but all we can see are the same swirling vortexes we've seen in films like Wreck-it Ralph and others. The entire opening sequence is a rip off of the finale of Independence Day. There is a video mind game Ender plays, and it looks horrible, not in the shocking and delightful way we all hoped it might. The universe is not spectacular in Ender's Game, and that's an issue, especially when we have films like The Tree of Life, and even 2001: A Space Odyssey, that manage to make the universe more chaotic and beautiful than Ender's Game. It's not atrocious, but it's not bad enough to be good, and it isn't good enough to be good, either. We know there's no such thing as a great adaptation, but at least other films manage to capture the essence of a story. Ender's Game misses the point, and it wastes not only the potential of its young stars, but it throws out the possibility of being something great in a time of mediocrity. Guest Writer DM Haight Dmhuniversal@gmail.com Recently I began listening to the audio book of Ender's Game. I was fortunate in that I happened to see the film before I began listening to what I assume will be a great space opera in literature. Why am I fortunate? Because seeing the movie and thinking back on the development of characters and story, I can safely say that the twenty minutes or so of listening was more entertaining and more engaging than the entire two hours of the Gavin Hood helmed train wreck of a narrative. Its not that Ender's Game is a poor movie. Honestly I'd have to say that if I were asked to watch it again, say after video release, I would. But I would keep in mind that it is a muddled down, sickly scripted film with very few moments of interest, of which none are truly earned. The film follows the story of Andrew "Ender" Wiggin, who happens to be something of a tactical military prodigy. He's a young boy in a world where children rule the ranks of the armed forces because their minds and ideas have yet to be bogged down by reality or a lack of imagination. Ender is a child who is constantly bullied, one who is smaller than those who would have him expelled from a program he doesn't necessarily want to be in. He is in position to be the commander of Earth's tactile forces against an enemy of insect quality. They have attacked his planet before, and now Earth's leaders seek to insure that does not happen again. Ender is promoted and sent to learn battle techniques on a space station orbiting Earth where he excels, makes allies, builds strategies, and makes few enemies. It is not the premise that is lacking here. It could very well have spawned into a franchise of films that may have had the potential to broaden the science fiction genre and touch on unseen territory in terms of themes like child violence, burgeoning sexuality, unfathomable responsibility, genocide, murder, and the ramifications of one's past or fuPhoto courtesy of disneydreaming.com. ture actions. We could have seen an incredible film that delved into the mind of a child coming to grips with what he is expected to do, or one that has to deal with a fragile psyche under the pressure and watch of an entire military. Instead Hollywood has decided to bypass all of that, has decided to avoid new territory, and has elected to give us a film that is indecently plodding, actionless, unmoving, and poorly scripted. The script is actually the most incredible piece of depressing I've had the pleasure of analyzing. Asa Butterfields lines are just so uninspiring, and even Harrison Ford seems Pokemon fans will enjoy the new features in Pokemon X and Y Guest Writers Jon Barajas, Trevor Henkel Pokemon X and Y marks the debut of the Pokemon series to the 3DS. The sixth generation of Pokemon games introduces a number of new things that both longtime fans of the series and newcomers will love. With the game now having 3D graphics, battle sequences are more detailed not only regarding attacks, but also depending on where you're fighting, as each area has its own unique feel. This makes for battles that are both viscerally exciting and visually engaging. Changes to the fights aren't strictly graphical, as X and Y introduce several new battle types. Players are now able to partake in sky battles that can only be performed if both players have a flying type Pokemon in their party. Another form of battling involves the player encountering a horde of wild Pokemon instead of just encountering one. These hordes usually have five Pokemon of the same kind, though there are also instances where there will be more than one different Pokemon within a horde. The other form of battle thats introduced in the game is called inverse battling. Inverse battling is essentially the same as regular battling, only now attacks that are usually super effective against the opposing Pokemon are now not very effective, and vise versa. These new combat systems keep battles from feeling repetitive. On top of better variety of graphics and more battling styles, there are also more personalized things the player is able to do. Possibly the most significant change on the character level is that, for the first time in a Pokemon game, the player is able to customize their appearance. The player is able to get their hair styled and colored, pick out clothing, and get colored contacts to change their eye color. While the player is still able to buy a bike in the game, they're also able to purchase roller skates with which the player can perform various tricks that can get them into hidden locations. With trainer customization and roller skates, the player has a more unique way to explore the region of Kalo. What seems to be the most compelling part of the new Pokemon has little to do with the new creatures or new environment, but the social aspects the game seems to promote. The series has always been about battling and trading your Pokemon with friends, but there was never a convenient way to do so. With Photo courtsey of metrouk2. Nintendo's 3DS system, players are easily able to identify when their friends are online, as well as notice any players within the immediate area. The ability to interact with these players - friends and strangers alike - is just a single button press away. In the past, it had been a long, exhausting effort to even trade Pokemon. Players would have to go to a specific location in the game which usually involved going out of their way in the single-player mode. Now, two players could be sitting on a train with their game, and be able to challenge each other to a battle without leaving their current adventure. Being able to see players in the immediate area has turned public areas like UW-Parkside into hubs for Pokemon trainers to interact and compete. Where some players will choose to give items to nearby students, others have gone to more competitive means. Gamers like Adam Berg thrive on the competition within campus and attempt to challenge every nearby player to a battle. On the opposite side, players like Molly Krasel have founded communities that focus on trading and collecting Pokemon. With the increase in social aspects, as well as the various new features in the game, numerous fans of the original Pokemon Red and Pokemon Blue games have returned to enjoy the nostalgia of collecting and battling Pokemon. Only this time, they get it to enjoy it alongside their friends. Progress and the future: a brief chat with PSG Jimmy Gibbs gibbs014@uwp.edu Recently I had the opportunity to sit down with Dustin Beth, the Speaker of the Parkside Student Government. With the first semester of this school year at the half-way mark, I thought it would be good to talk with the PSG about the new year, how they felt about it thus far and what their prospects for the future were. One of the very first things said during our sit down was, "This is the most transparent Student Government we've had since 2007." When asked about the goals of the current PSG, Speaker Beth said they have three main priorities. The first is to provide transparency to the student body. They do so by making the PSG and particular PSG members more readily available to students then they have been in the past. One of the ways in which they are accomplishing this is by moving their senate meetings to noon on Mondays (a dead hour when no classes are in session) instead of the old time of 5 p.m. when it was harder for students to meet with them. Second, PSG is working on maintaining fiscal responsibility by making sure that the allocated Segregated Fees students are paying are being utilized in the most efficient way possible so that students will be getting a "better bang for their buck." And their most important goal, according to Beth, is providing and upholding student rights and advocacy for the students. Another aspect that PSG is continuing to work on is striving to create a better accountability for student organizations in order to produce a This month's sports in pictures Photos by Ray Pajarillo. WIPZ Radio: their road to an FM license Doria DeBartolo debar004@uwp.edu The staff of Parkside's WIPZ Radio has been working toward obtaining their FM license since spring semester of 2013. "UW-Parkside is the only UW school that doesn't have a FM license for its radio station," says station manager and student body President Annalee Sepanski Sepanski recognized that obtaining this license is something "that can greatly benefit the student body as well as the community, and with the support of her colleagues, she decided to begin moving forward in pursuit of it in June of this year. She realized it was going to be a rough road after her second meeting with several UWP faculty members, including Steve Wallner and Dean of Students Tammy McGuckin. She also spoke briefly with Chancellor Deborah Ford on separate occasions. WIPZ presented the administration with a request for funds needed to pursue the license. The administration soon concluded that applying for a license would be "a gamble," and there is no guarantee that WIPZ will be approved. Their request for funding was ultimately turned down. WIPZ media coordinator Terry Havel got a quote from a friend to install a radio tower for $2000. Sepanski met with the administration once more to present this offer. She was told that UW-Parkside could not engage in a contract with this specific engineering company because a deal had been made between Terry and a friend who worked with the company WIPZ was then told by the administration that they would continue searching for a company to do the installation. Eventually, a telecommunications company that worked with NPR offered to do it for $2000. WIPZ knew that the UWP administration would not be willing or able to cover any of the costs. Sepanski approached SUFAC, the Segregated University Fee Allocation Committee, in an attempt to receive funding from the contingency fund, but her request was also denied because "a member of SUFAC felt that I could work our current budget well enough to make things work." Like many other student organizations, the WIPZ budget was cut by over 50%, decreasing from $28,000 to only $12,500 for the year. After mandatory expenses are covered, Sepanski says, "We will only have $2000 to work with for everything else, including repairs and promotions." WIPZ also sent out solicitation letters to request sponsorship; however, the tax number required to proceed with these requests was received too late and the opportunities for sponsorship were subsequently lost. "We finally just decided to absorb things, because we feel obtaining an FM license will ultimately benefit [us] more than anything," commented President Sepanski. After the long search for funding, Sepanski and the rest of the WIPZ staff decided to make the payment out of their current budget from SUF (Segregated University Fees) dollars, and to make cuts to promotions as well as other plans they had for the school year: "We have paid for it but there are things that we will have to sacrifice." WIPZ's application is currently being worked on by technical consultants, and they are now waiting to submit it to the FCC for the final approval, while also waiting on the approval from the UW System. "The FCC hasn't opened up the window yet where we need to submit our approval because of the government shutdown, and as of right now the decision is in their hands," says Sepanski. WIPZ will hopefully be approved for one of two frequencies currently available in the Kenosha area. Sepanski also added that, "It is a good thing for students to be informed of what is going on." Student support for WIPZ is crucial, and in the end it is our money that paid for the license. The Artisan Craftsman Establishment i s UW-Parkside's art club, also known as ACE for short. The organization's goal is to become a resource for artists on campus by promoting them, connecting them to the local art scene, and helping them prepare for life as an artist after school. The club has two meetings during the fall semester. The main meeting is on Mondays at 10am in Rita D113, the Fibers/Metals studio. The meeting gets repeated on Tuesdays at 5pm in the same room.

They have also been working on building and maintaining better relationships with several of these organizations, including our campus radio network WIPZ and The Ranger News to name a few. They will also be hosting a town hall summit in the very near future that will allow students to attend and express any questions or concerns that they may have for members of the PSG. Beth is also very happy to report that the current PSG is made up of the highest amount of freshman class members that they have ever had, which will lead the way for more opportunities for younger incoming students. All in all, the meeting is best summed up by a quote from Speaker Beth: "We are on our way to a better Parkside Student Government and improving life here at Parkside." November 6,2013 The Ranger News 7 Weekly Horoscopes - See what the stars have in store for you! Scorpio (October 23-November 21): Isn't November like your birthday month or something?

But don't worry, maybe all that time being lost in Nebraska did your mind some good. Still seeing corn? Never mind, then. Capricorn (December 22-January 19): Apparently you took your role in the Parkside play a little too seriously, Capricorn. Stop trying to convince everyone that your name is Earnest. The cast didn't believe you then, and they really don't believe you now. Aquarius (January 20-February 18): In a Halloween frenzy, you stuck your head in a pumpkin and ran around your neighborhood pretending you were the Headless Horseman. Take two Advil four times a day, that migraine will go away eventually. Pisces (February 19-March 20): Pisces: Spring semester schedules! Have you talked to your advisor yet? Whoa, just kidding.

Aries (March 21-April 19): Did Halloween get you all excited, Aries? Well take it down a notch.

Better stop at the store and pick up some maternity pants...you too ladies...tis the season of overeating. X I Dear Doctor Jimmy, Advice for all your questions and concerns! Good morning scholars! During the busy, hectic, stressful, and sometimes frustrating times we call semesters, it isn't hard to get overwhelmed. Maybe you're sitting in your dorm room, maybe you're festering in your parent's basement, or possibly even the living room of the apartments you rent with several others, and it hits you: I need some help! Finally there's a place for you to turn. Doctor Jimmy is a new addition to the Ranger News staff, and he is making himself available through the inter-webs to help students with any problems they may have. Any students with problems seeking advice or answers can find Doctor Jimmy's page on Facebook at facebook.com/askdrjimmy. Seek him out, and you may just see your advice turn up in the Rangers News' new advice column! Dear Doctor Jimmy, ..... So...I have this friend who's having marital problems. He found out recently that his wife was talking to someone else on Facebook and planning to meet up with this person to have sex. How should he handle this situation? A divorce? Or try to work it out? Help, Doctor Jimmy! -Concerned Friend Dear Concerned Friend, This is, indeed, a troubling situation. I feel for your friend: having a significant other cheat on you, or conspire to cheat on you is up there with some of the major crushing blows to esteem and overall mental well being, however, an actual spouse is even worse Vows were made, and, unfortunately for your friend, the vows were conspired to be broken. I, also, just recently had an associate go through a very similar sitaation; he was not married to the woman, however. I will give you and your friend the same advice I gave to him. It's time to get down to brass tacks, the divorce seems the only way to go in this situation. It sounds harsh, after all there is always marriage counseling but the bottom line is his wife was involved in relations with another through social media and had full intentions of meeting with that person to take the relations to the next physical level. Now, since this couple is not involved in the rek swinging based on what you've told me here, his wife was caught cheating. There are a lot of problems married couples can have and they can always be worked cheating is just not one of them. If he did try to work this out and stay with his wife, he would have to realize his options; one would be that there simplyus no worhng ^ou wife had intentions of cheating on him and the only thing that . ww,»,, r « x; -XT.. ture, but time and the plethora offish available in the sea, as they say, heals everything. -Doctor Jimmy Dear Doctor Jimmy, I make more money than my boyfriend, so all of my friends are convinced he's just dating me for my money! We never even talk about finances, and he takes me on plenty of dates. He seems to genuinely love me, so that can't be true, right? -Miss Money Bags Dear Miss Money Bags, It seems these days that friends are all too willing to give advice about our relationships when it hasn't been asked for. Ive even seen friends give friends advice when told it wasn't wanted. I like to blame it on the overwhelming amount of reality TV focused on uneducated early twentysomething's creating drama in whatever way they can. It's like giving a chef a frying pan and a bag of rock salt and telling him he has thirty minutes to wow his viewers or they'll cut his fingers off, cursing him to a life of never being able to wield a spatula effectively again. Facing those circumstances, he's going to give us something. However, I digress, back to your problem. So your friends say your boyfriend is only in it for the bacon you're bringing in? Tell them to shove it and leave the real diagnosing and advice giving to the professionals. If you feel like the guy really loves you, and everything is going well, then who cares who makes more money? It sounds to me like your friends may be suffering a bit of post S.M.S. or Sugar Momma Syndrome, as we refer to it in the field. They've been shafted before by a man looking for a few extra gifts here and there, and now they are tainted and think any woman that makes more money than their significant other is being used. That's just not the case. And it sounds to me like you and your boyfriend are aware it's not the case. So disregard the comments of your friends, and continue enjoying what you have. -Doctor Jimmy Selling meth to pay for college, what Breaking Bad has taught us ail Maggie Lawler lawle020@uwp.edu Like most college students, I weep when I see how much tuition costs. If it gets any higher, we won't even be able to afford our ramen. So let's think about the positive messages we're learning from today's media. How can you go from broke to rich in a matter of months? Well, Mr. White, after you put some pants on we can go over the fine arts degree you'll need to pursue. What? No. I'm not talking about Studio Art. I'm thinking bigger than that. Bigger even than Picasso's blue period. I'm talking about that blue crystal. Grab your lab coats and follow me down the wonderful rabbit hole known as meth cooking. Now I know what you're thinking, "I've seen Breaking Bad, and it didn't end up okay for Walter!" And to that I would reply, "ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?" Let's take a look back at what happened. If you haven't seen the end of Breaking Bad yet, stop reading. There are spoilers ahead. Walter didn't die because of meth, you might have missed the part where he had terminal cancer. What any college student wouldn't kill to be making all of that...what's the word Pinkman? Cheddar? The entire TV show had me wishing I'd paid better attention in science class. High school is something I've tried to tune out for the most part, but all I can really remember from chemistry is my teacher threatening to take my cell phone away and not give it back. And that was back in a time where smart phones were just s"" cience ] B itch a drear. I mean, yeah. There's definitely some danger involved if you're going to become a drug lord, but you don't have to go as deep as Heisenberg (although a clever nickname is required). The key is to get out before you bury yourself in hundred dollar bills, although that's very tempting. Settle for a swimming pool full of twenties. Fifties and hundreds just make you seem greedy. I guess what I'm trying to tell you is that college is expensive, but we've only just scratched the surface. There's an entire world out there full of dirty drug money, and it's waiting for us to go out and find it. Ranger News Rave Reviews!

UW-Parkside Books: In Memoriam Guest Writer Andy McDonald andy.mcdonald@huffingtonpost.com Every year, new school semesters begin, and with that comes the demise of academic books that we all hold so dear. These are books cut down probably before their time, in the prime of their tenure. Maybe there were more misspellings than usual, maybe the editor s name wasn t the right font size, or maybe the publisher needed a new edition to help pay for their own kid's college education. Regardless of how these books came to their bookend, we celebrate the academic texts we lost last semester.

Major Issues: How to know which major is right for you Series Number The series number of the original collection. UWPAC124 Ranger News Text Any textual data included in the document Major Issues: How to know which major is right for you Doria DeBartolo debar004@uwp.edu For anyone who attended Major Mania on Oct. 8 in Main Place, congratulations. You have already taken the first step in the right direction. For those who could not attend, Major Mania was sponsored by the UW-Parkside Advising and Career Center to offer students a chance to acquaint themselves with the various programs that are offered at the University. Representatives from many academic departments weie available in Main Place to provide information about majors, concentrations, minors, certificates, specific courses, and careers. This was the perfect opportunity to learn about the broad spectrum of opportunities that are offered here at Parkside. One ot the most important keys to choosing a suitable major is becoming familiar with all of your options, because how can you choose if you don't really know what to choose from ? Typically, there are two factors upon which students depend heavily on when making the decision: a specific field or job of future interest that needs preparing for, or simply a field of study that fascinates. If you are already committed to a careei path, speak to your advisor to find out which major will propel you in the right direction. A career focused major such as nursing or education will give you the practical skills you need after graduation. Whereas, a degree in something you are passionate about such as Art or Communication doesn't have as precise of a path. However, these majors will indeed provide you with extremely valuable critical thinking, communication, and creative abilities that are often heavily sought after by employers. If you've just begun on your journey to select a major, the first thing to do is forget high school. Subjects that were uninteresting back then could turn out to be a great strength of yours and in turn become rather interesting. The next thing to remember is to be engaged in general education courses. Don't blow them off! These courses are set up to offer a breadth of knowledge from various departments, so choose wisely. Base your decision to take certain gen eds on a spark of interest, as small is it may be you never know where it could lead. Once you think you've uncovered significant interest in a major, talk to youi advisor about it. They will know what it takes to complete the requirements in that field. Advisors can also gear you toward courses that will keep you engaged in the subject. Be sure to be open with your advisor, tell them your strengths and weaknesses. This is knowledge that will help them lead you in the right direction. Although an advisor will never discourage you from applying to a major that intrigues you, they will be real with you. If there are challenging aspects of the major you're thinking about, rest assured, they will let you know. Advisors are your base, but don't forget you can also go to professors in a department of interest or even upperclassmen who have already declared their major and are well into the course of study. The advice and information they can offer is really valuable. It could make you gravitate more toward the subject, and it could very well lead to your disinterest while guiding you into another direction. Either way, you have gained significantly from the experience. One final and perhaps most exciting way to learn about a potential career is to shadow a professional. If you think you may one day be interested in journalism, shadow a journalist. There is no better way to learn the ins and outs of a profession than to actually follow one around for a day or two, and bonus; it might lead to an internship. Regardless of which point you are at in the process of declaring a major, don't let yourself forget that your major in college doesn't define who you are as a person. While it is an important decision, don't sweat it too much. A major doesn t always dictate what you will be doing for the rest of your life - you do. You have already made one of the best decisions in your life. That is to further your education, and for that you are awesome.

Liv Gripko gripk002@uwp.edu It's fall. The days are getting a little shorter, and a little darker each day. The cold air and bitter wind is starting to settle in, disheveling my hair and stinging my cheeks as 1 walk, what seems a mile, from my car to class. Though, the most evident change that notifies that fall is here, is the beautiful color changes of the leaves. The trees on campus are now peppered with vibrant hues of reds, oranges and yellows, and breathtakingly glow and dance in the sunlight. But why exactly do the leaves change color in the fall? Well, as with everything, there's a miraculous science behind it, and I have explained the fascinating reasoning here for you. First you should know that plants are autotroph, which means that they produce their own energy and "food." They do this by photosynthesis. For the plant to photosynthesize, it takes in sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide. Chloroplast are organelles in the plant cells that are essential for photosynthesis. They contain Chlorophyl, a pigment that captures the light energy from the sun and also is what gives leaves its green complexion. In the winter, there is not enough water or sunlight for photosynthesis to take place, so the tree enters a dormant state and survives off of stored energy, mainly in the roots; in the form of starch. When they enter this state, photosynthesis terminates. It is actually the shortening of days that comes with the change of season that triggers this state and the termination of photosynthesis. The ending of photosynthesis begins the explanation of why the leaves change colors. With the photosynthesis process concluded, the Chlorophyll (green pigment) is broken down and recedes from the leaf. This then reveals the presence of smaller amounts of pigment, like red and yellow, that has always been present in the leaf, just simply overcome by the green Chlorophyl pigment. These pigments are what create the gorgeous colors of the leaves in the Fall. There is three major pigments present in leaves: Chlorophyl, Carotenoids and Anthocyanins. As I mentioned, Chlorophyl is responsible for giving the leaf its green coloring. Carotenoids give the leaves its yellow and orange coloring. And Anthocyanins create the vibrant red colors. Now you know that it's not just the fall leaves that are so beautiful, but the science behind its beauty, too. It is a blessing to attend classes on a campus that is surrounded with such an abundance of nature and charm. I hope that this explanation makes you even more enamored and appreciative of the beauty in nature.

We've gotten a lot of positive feedback about this last issue, and for that I am incredibly thankful. I'm glad you guys dug it so much! It means a lot to us to hear that you all understand how hard we work producing the paper. I feel like a lot of people don't recognize me on campus, so its really fun for me to overhear people talking about the paper next to me without them knowing it's me. Unless they're saying mean things, then it's not as fun. One of my personal favorite stories was, "hey! Did you read your horoscope yet? 'proceeds to read his horoscope out loud.' Wow that was mean. No wonder I don't read these." Sorry, guy! We were just trying to make you laugh! There was a lady in one of my classes, too, that asked the girl next to me if she was the editor of the paper. Nancy, shoutout to you. Thank you for saying you liked my editorial. That was super sweet of you! I d idn't want to interrupt and be like "well actually that was me," because that seemed kind of rude. Also, I kind of like that I have a secret identity as some average person. I'm not saying it takes a superhero to run the paper or anything, but if the spandex fits...Now I'm getting really distracted imagining myself as a superhero, and I've lost all productivity for the rest of the day. I guess I can try to keep chugging along. Can you guys believe it's already time for midterms? It seems like just last week we started school. You can tell it's October, though, because the leaves are changing colors. You can also tell because pumpkin spice lattes are a thing and white girls like me can't even. Do yourself a favor and don't check my instagram until January. It's about to get super festive. Oh, my, God, look at those leaves. Lastly, I want to give a very special shoutout to my Mom and Dad who celebrate their 25th Wedding Anniversary on the 21st of October. You guys are the best role models I could ever ask for, and your love inspires me to make my own relationship perfect. Thank you, and Happy Anniversary.

Fall is the time that animals and plants start preparing for winter. There are many different animal behaviors happening, right here on Parkside's forested campus, signifying fall. As you know, fall is the season just before winter, and many of the fall behaviors are done in preparation for winter. Most animals store up fat in the fall to prepare for winter, when food is scarce and hard to find. They then live off this fat during the winter when they have little to eat. Common on Parkside's campus, White tail deer, often do this. Animals that hibernate also store up fat. Woodchucks, also known as groundhogs or Whistle Pigs, are another common animal to Parkside. As you may know, groundhogs hibernate for the winter and then re-emerge in the Spring, often debuted February 2nd, Groundhog's Day, to traditionally (and unscientifically) predict the coming of Spring. Not many other animals on campus hibernate, besides small rodents, like mice and bats. Raccoons, skunks, and opossum often enter brief states of hibernation, called torpor, during extremely cold or snowy times. Local birds are also preparing for winter too, gathering for migration or molting their winter coats. It won't be long until the Parkside's infamous Canadian geese make their flight south. I will truly miss the days of being chased or scolded by them as I try to make it class or to my car. Besides the Canadian geese, the American Robins, mallards, and the Eastern Bluebirds are a few of the local birds that are making the long journey to the South for the warm temperatures, as well. Birds that remain here through the winter are preparing, this fall, by molting and growing a new winter down. The Goldfinch is a wonderfully bright yellow bird you may often see on campus, but in the fall they molt their golden suits and grow in gray and olive feathers. These new duds not only keep them warmer in the winter, but are also designed to keep them safe, camouflaging them for the winter setting. As the birds, many of the local mammals like deer, foxes, raccoon, and coyotes, also grow in thicker, warmer and more camouflaged fur for fall to protect them from the harsh winter weather. By far the most common Fall animal behavior you may see on our campus is food caching. Caching means the hoarding or storing of food. Because food is so scarce in the winter, instead of storing fat like the deer, many animals store and preserve food that they can then eat throughout the winter. The most known animals of this behavior, on our campus, are squirrels and chipmunks. Chipmunks mainly store away small nuts, grain, insects and seeds. They are able to gather mass amounts of food at a single time, stuffing it into their massive cheek pouches, which they are famous for, then transporting it back to their dens. Like mice, chipmunks hibernate through the winter, but instead of living off a fat store while they sleep, often how hibernation works, they get up periodically to feed off the food they have stored in their burrows. Though squirrels cache too, they do not hibernate like the chipmunk. Notorious for digging holes, especially to gardeners, often ruining planters and gardens, squirrels mainly bury their food caches. They also hide food in tree crotches and hollows as well. Squirrels usually collect nuts, seeds, berries, and pinecones. They also often harvest mushrooms,, which are abundant in the fall; the peak of their growing period. The Squirrels will pick them and stash them in tree branches to dry, which yields spoiling and preserves it for the long winter. Whatever the food type may be, squirrels often scatter their hoards in various hiding places. This prevents one seed from spoiling an entire stash. Many birds use this same caching technique as well, such as Crows, Blue Jays, Nuthatches and Woodpeckers. So next time you see a chipmunk scamper by, with his cheeks comically full, before dismissing him as the crazy Chip or Dale, now you know that there's a real method to his madness; it's a sign that fall is here and winter is soon approaching.

WIPZ Ranger Radio: quest for FM License nears end Doria DeBartolo debar004@uwp.edu University of Wisconsin-Parkside still stands as the only UW school that does not have their FM license. "We are hoping to be on the air by early to mid November (101.5 FM)," says WIPZ Production Director Eric Antrim. "As an organization, we feel that having the power of the airways will help grow the presence of UWP in the Kenosha/Racine area, while assisting in the promotion of other campus organizations and events." WIPZ began the process to gain their FM license almost a year and a half ago in spring of 2013. Funding and overly bureaucratic procedures are what Antrim says have been the greatest obstacles that slowed down the process. "We raised a lot of the money through generous donations along with our SUFAC budget. We are just waiting for some equipment and wiring to be installed, training our staff on FCC rules, and getting the final okay from the FCC," says Antrim. Knowing that U WP administration would not be willing or able to cover any of the costs for installation, WIPZ took it upon themselves to cover a good amount of the costs by making cuts to WIPZ promotions and other events. "We finally just decided to absorb things because we feel that obtaining an FM license will ultimately benefit more than anything," says Station Manager Annalee Sepanski. After using almost all of their SUF (Segregated University Fees) dollars in the fall of 2013 to continue working toward obtaining their FM license, WIPZ still needed more funding. Media Coordinator Terry Havel, who has been with WIPZ for over 2 years and has experience working with ten different radio stations including WBSD-FM in Burlington which he obtained the FCC license for and built up as one of only two high school radio stations in Wisconsin, has donated over $4000 to WIPZ to assist in this process. For updates on WIPZ's FM license visit trnonline.org, and pick up our November issue for an interview with Production Director Eric Antrim about WIPZ's detailed struggle and journey. 4 The Ranger News October 16,2014 5) 6) 7) 10) 1 1 ) 12) 13) 14) 15) 16) Photos Courtesy of UWP Athletics. Women's Soccer Team Undefeated Current Standings Jalen Perry perry039@uwp.edu The women's soccer team currently boasts a perfect record on the season, and they have looked dominant in doing so. They started off the year easily as one of the hottest teams in the country, decimating the first half of their schedule. They opened up the season with 3-0,4-0, and 7-0 victories against Northwood University, University of Charleston and their conference opener against Mizzou University S&T. Their first draw of the season came against Drury University (game ended 0-0). One of their first big tests on the season came on their first road trip out of Somers, against #20 Rockhurst University; the result was a close 2-1 victory. The women were back to their dominating ways, running through William Jewell College 4-0. The next two games weren't as wide a margin of victories, but they were wins nevertheless (1-0 victories against University of Southern Indiana and University of Illinois Springfield). We tied in a classic match against Bellarmine, which saw the game go into double overtime, only to end in a 1-1 draw. They had to muscle out a win against a very physical, often dirty McKendree team that definitely tested our girls' toughness. I spoke with Coach Troy Fabiano, he says that a perfect season wasn't on their radar at the outset of the season, but winning every game isn't something they are shying away from. "Nobody: wants to take a loss, we haven't talked about our National rankings, regional rankings, we talked about our goals at the beginning of the season and we just stayed the pace. You go out to win every game, so it's no added pressure," says the longest tenured coach at Parkside. Coach Troy isn't new to success, with sixteen straight winning seasons, three coach of the year awards, and four straight trips to the NCAA tournament, his teams are perennial powerhouses in the GLVC. When asked who he credits his success, he said bringing in the right people and leadership on the field, "Bringing in the right people, also the success from year-to-year; the seniors show the freshman what needs to be done, what the expectations are, and just being leaders." When ! asked him who takes on a leadership role on the team, he said there aren't any real vocal leaders, but he noted Senior defender Karley Mecko as one of the on field generals, "She's a physical presence in the back that leads by example and she'll run through anything." Mecko, a GLVC Defensive Player of the Week winner, credits the team's success to both hard work in practice, and team chemistry being extremely high. "Training sessions are all business, we have a limited time together each day so we get as much practice time in as we can, so there is no goofing off.. .We have really strong chemistry, it is rare to find a group of girls that get along on and off the field, so that makes it easy to get the job done on the field. We know our goals and work towards them e v e r y s e s si o n a n d g a m e ." . • > : I also spoke with Senior Midfielder Kelsey Armour and asked how she feels that the team stacks up against Coach Fabiano's teams in the past and she feels that the team this year is special, "My freshman year we won conference and I feel like this year we have a great shot to take conference again. We have everything here, the players are playing great and I think we can take it all." The next home game is October 17, and it promises to be a big one against Truman State University, who are relatively new to the GLVC but have established themselves as a dominate force. We are currently first in the GLVC and they are right behind us in second. I tried to get a prediction out of the three but they didn't take the bait; saying they have two games before the Truman one and they are focused on getting the job done against those opponents before they can even think about Truman. No matter what happens, this season's team is looking hungry and determined to bring home a GLVC championship. They have all the talent and coaching needed, now it is up to us as the student body to support them every step of the way.

This is the work setting of a job opportunity in Kenosha County, town of Bristol, offered on RangerTrak (an online Parkside resource to search for jobs, internships and volunteer opportunities). It is a part-time work study position/internship available for ten dollars an hour at the Pringle Nature Center as an Assistant Naturalist. Duties for the position include: "assisting in delivering programs and activities for diverse age groups by performing the following duties: assisting the Naturalist with school groups that visit the nature center. Review lesson plans. Prepare for upcoming programs, creating new materials for display or leading school groups, and maintaining the building. Working with the Naturalist on developing educational family programs focused on the environment and relevant to specific event". You can find more information about this on RangerTrak. The Job ID number is 15228. But what exactly is the Pringle Nature Center and what does it do? Well, to find out more I went to the Pringle Nature Center and interviewed head employees Valerie Mann and Barry Thomas. The Pringle Nature Center is 1,097 acres of forest, prairie, and park, which fulfills three main aspects: environmental awareness and education, ecosystem management, and recreation. According to Mann, the main goal of the Nature Center in environmental awareness and education is to help children explore and appreciate nature. Most children today are more content to stay inside, hardwired to their technology. Their goal is to re-kindle the connection of kids with the outdoors. The Nature Center is a main component in many schools' science curriculum. They provide embellishment to a teacher's lesson plan or teach the lesson plan altogether if the teacher is not comfortable with the lesson. Due to school calendar and seasonal cause, the nature center is most busy in the spring and fall, of course. However, they have many intriguing lesson plans and programs in the winter as well, like "survival techniques in the winter and how to build a shelter". Thomas also added that the center focuses on ecosystem management. There is a Rain Garden that collects run off water. The acres of prairie support the wildlife ecosystem. They are also active in removing invasive plant species, like Buckthorn and Garlic Mustard plants; volunteers are always welcome to join. The volunteer forms are found on their website: pringlenc.org. The third main aspect to the Center is recreation. There are picnic venues and benches offered throughout for a quaint escape and a cheerful playground for family fun. Mann also touts the four miles of scenic hiking trails. In winter, there are snow shoes available to rent to enable the enjoyment of these trails year round. Whether seeking the Assistant Naturalist position, a volunteer position to give back, an education in conservation, or simply to reconnect with nature, The Pringle Nature Center is a must for any Kenosha resident and/or visitor.

With The Conjuring being a huge success with a sequel on the way, it's only natural that they would begin to try to milk the series just as they do all other horror series with a mass amount of sequels and prequels. Luckily for everyone though they're still so newly into the downward spiral that these spin offs/continuations are still good. Although it did have a great deal of backstory that went into the movie, Annabelle proved to be sufficiently creepy. With satanic cults as well as just insanely unnerving dolls, this movie had a little bit of something for all horror fans, other than the ones who like pure gore. With a lot of the "jump" factor going for it, it kept the audience at the edge of their seats, even making a few of the younger ladies in the crowd scream out in terror at the sudden emergence of a demon. Although there are a few instances where a horror fanatic would have caught on to similarities to other films, such as the Chinese horror film from last year Baby Blues, which seemed to be a huge influence on the unfolding of the story, it did keep the viewers with some new material rather than old, washed up, used stuff. There are a few places in the film that it would have better suited as an ending, without the twist that took place, to make it more original, but the ending overall was still a bit of a surprise and not what the audience expected (or wanted in my case). The acting in the film could have used a little more work, but wasn't bad. With the time frame being set in the 1960's-1970's, they did a good job of showing the traditional nuclear family that was still lingering from the 1950's era, but this did make the woman look extremely weak compared to the man, who was overly understanding to his wife's mental state. Especially since he Photo Courtesy of www.aceshowbiz.com. was never present for any of the supernatural activity. The movie was marketed as a family being haunted by this doll, but in reality it was just the stay at home mom which begs the question to if she wasn't a stay at home mom, would she be haunted as much, if at all, because nothing supernatural ever happened in public. There also, for a rated R movie, was a lack of death throughout the film. With there only really being one blood scene throughout the entire film one has to wonder why there was a rated R rating at all, when it could have clearly been PG-13. To open the season with, I say Annabelle was a decent choice for Hollywood, especially since all that the rest of the Halloween season has to offer is Ouija and Dracula Untold for horror (ish in the instance of Dracula) and Horns, which promises to be the cynical comedy of Halloween Day, opening on the 31st. All in all, it is definitely worth a watch, but I'm still waiting for The Conjuring 2. Want to wet your pants this Halloween? Top 10 horror movies you need to see Krista Skweres schraO 10 @ u wp .edu When it comes to horror movies, you have a couple of different options. There are the gore flicks that, while they'll make your stomach churn, are not scary. There are the traditional slasher movies that you know what will happen yet still jump when the killer bursts out of the closet. There are the weird films that make you squirm in your seat at the same time that they make you think. All have their own merits, but what is really good? Here is my list of the top 10 horror films to watch this season, and it has a delightful mixture of these types so as to offer a little something for everyone. 1)The Shining: And 1 do mean the original 1980 movie starring Jack Nicholson and directed by Stanley Kubrick, not the remake from 1997. This offers a nice mix in itself of gore (the original gore, nothing compared to today's standards of gore) and terror with a creepy haunted hotel, waves (literally) of blood, and a little bit of the supernatural in the form of mind reading. Horrifying no matter how many times you've seen it. 2)A Nightmare on Elm St.: Again, referring to the original 1984 flick, not the 2010 remake. A scary dude who used to be a child molester creeps into your dreams and kills you in real life? It's everyone's worst nightmare! (pun intended) You c an't even hide under the blankets. Not to mention, Johnny Depp's first movie and that's always a plus! 3)The Exorcist: You c an't get more original horror than The Exorcist. 1973 at its very best and possession before it was cool! This movie pretty much paved the way for every other possession story for the rest of the history of film. Nothing else needs to be said. 4)Ju-on: This is the original Japanese film that the awful American rendition of The Grudge was based off of. Those of you who have seen this terrible piece of "horror" are probably shaking your head at me right now. Just wait until you've seen this 2002 original to judge. The Japanese know what they are doing when it comes to their horror. I'd recommend most of the films I've seen from Japan in the horror category; this one just happens to be my favorite. 5)IT: Yes, I know I pick ed 2 Stephen King adaptation in one list, but hey! They're good. Who doesn't love a creepy clown that eats children? Plus, we all know that's actually what is going on in th ose clown minds. They're just plain scary. 6)The Strangers: Based on the original French film Them, this is one of the only slasher films really worth anything. It'll make you jump at every sound in yo ur house for the rest of the evening, and make you terrified to look out the window. Plus, it's got a different ending as compared to every other slasher movie, which is refreshing. 7)All Hallows' Eve: Yes, it's extremely weird. Extremely. But the clown (yes I have a thing with clowns) is more terrifying than Penny wise could ever dream to be. This is one of those movies that's going to make you think, at the same time as it's going to' make you squirm. With all the disturbing gore and genuine creepiness, this is definitely one to check out, despite its bad IMDB rating. Photos Courtesy of bloody-disgusting.com. 8)Halloween: Always the original 1978, although 1 ha ve to give a shout out to Rob Zombie on his 2007 reimaging which wasn't awful. Being a traditional slasher, one of the firsts, it also helped to pave the way for that sub-genre of horror with the slow moving killer who refuses to die and is constantly after revenge. The scariest part of this movie I think is just how purely psychopath Michael Myers is; that's real evil and it does exist in the real world. Makes you think, huh? 9)House on Haunted Hill: Shockingly, I am talking about the remake in this one. 1999 with Geoffrey Rush as Vincent Price's original character- but having enough respect to pay homage to his original acting by changing the character's last name to Price- and Chris Kattan for a comic relief, this flick makes you laugh and jump. With the new technology to bring the house back to life, this movie uses fast motion effects to scare the pants off of you. 10)House of 1000 Corpses: This one makes the list for the originality factor. Rob Zombie's first and original baby, this movie was more of an an film than it was a movie, while still holding a disturbing storyline that keeps your face in a permanent look of terror. 1 can't say too much without giving anything away, but only one word needs to be said: Fishboy. This list was extremely difficult to put together with so many good ones out there, so I II give a quick shout out to some honorable mentions: Martyrs (A French horror) Texas Chaimaw Massacre, Hellraiser, The Ring, Cello (Another Japanese honor), and Instde (A French horror). I hop e with Halloween right around the comer that you enjoy these amazing suggestions for what will get you in the mood for the holiday' If you have any that you think should have made the list, I'd be extremely excited to check them out, so give your suggestions!

How To Knit: A Beginner's Guide I Liv I V f Gripko gripk002@uwp.edu It's officially October and with the blustery, cold fall wind setting in, there's nothing better than curling up with a big, warm, knitted blanket. Instead of buying one this fall, for a more fun and economic approach, you could make one yourself! Don't know how you say? No problem! Below J have assembled a quick and easy how-to on knitting, with the guidance of the famously crafty Martha Stewart. For more tips and tricks and patterns on knitting, you can check out her website at marthastewart.com. For the how-to tutorial below, supplies you will need are: size 7 or 8 knitting needles and a medium-weight cotton yarn. You should first know that, basically, knitting is creating a fabric by interlocking yam loops. You can create these yarn loops through "knitting" or "purling". Knitting is done by putting your needles through the bottom of a loop and then taking a new loop down through the stitch. In purling you simply insert your needles from the top of a loop instead. You should also know that there are two basic methods or styles of knitting. There's the "English" method and the "Continental" method. Both styles are very similar and create the same results, the only difference is the way the yarn is held. It is believed that the continental method is faster and easier, but it's really just personal preference and what feels most comfortable for you. In the English method, the yarn is worked with the right hand and stitched with the left; in the Continental method the yarn is controlled with the left hand and stitched with the right. In the tutorial below, the Continental style is used. How to Cast On "To begin knitting, you will need to create a foundation row of stitches on your needle by "casting on." Make a slipknot by looping yarn into a pretzel shape, leaving a tail end at least three times the width of what you are knitting (if your scarf is 8 inches wide, you'll need a 24-inch-long tail). Slip knitting needle through pretzel shape as shown, and pull yarn ends to tighten. Drape tail of yarn over left thumb and working yarn (ball end) over left index finger. Use your other fingers to catch yam lengths in left palm. Insert needle upward through loop on thumb. With needle, catch the working yarn that's on your index finger, and pull it through the loop on your thumb. Remove thumb from loop. Keeping yarn ends secured in palm, reposition thumb, and tighten new stitch on right-hand needle. Repeat these steps until you've cast on the required number of stitches." How to Knit Stitch "Hold the needle with cast-on stitches in your left hand. Wrap the working yarn around your left index finger, and hold it in back of the left-hand needle. Insert point of right-hand needle from front to back into the first cast-on stitch on the left-hand needle, opening up a stitch. Catch working yarn with right-hand needle. Pull yarn through opened stitch. Slip cast-on stitch off left-hand needle while holding middle finger against second cast-on stitch to ensure it does not also slip off. The stitch on the right-hand needle is the newly formed knit stitch. Continue knitting across the cast-on row. When you have emptied the last stitch from the left-hand needle (completing a row), exchange needles, returning the needle with stitching to your left hand." How to Purl "The purl stitch differs from the knit stitch in two fundamental ways: The working yarn is held in the front of the project instead of the back, and the needle is inserted from the back to the front instead of from front to back." How to Cast Off "Casting off keep stitches front unraveling once they're removed from the needle. To cast off, knit two stitches. Insert left-hand needle into first stitch; lift stitch up over second stitch and off the needle. Continue knitting stitches in this manner until all stitches have been cast off. Cut working yarn, leaving a 6-inch-Iong tail. Pull tail through last stitch to secure. Use a yam needle to weave tail ends of yarn through backs of several stitches, picking up only surface loops." GeoKitty Enters a Funhouse #4 by Deanna Antony Photo Courtesy of downloadclipart.net Weekly Horoscopes - See what the stars have in store for you! Libra (September 23-October 22): Venus has been hanging out with Mars this week, indicating that love is in your future. Maybe this will be the first year you actually have a date to bring to your family costume party. Let grandma down gently. Scorpio (October 23-November 21): Dear Scorpio, remember when Pluto was a real planet? Yeah, we do too. You don't have a horoscope this week, because we're too sad thinking about Pluto. Sagittarius (November 22-December 21): We're surrounded by midterms, Sagittarius. It would be wise to stop watching American Horror Story: Freak Show and start writing that paper you forgot about. Oops. Just reminded you, didn't we. Capricorn (December 22-January 19): Beyonce liked Saturn, so she put a ring on it. Now Saturn wants to return the favor. Does the word ring "ring" a bell? Do you think your man might finally pop the question? Probably not. That's your alarm going off. Sorry. Aquarius (January 20-February 18): Midterms can make anyone a little bit crazy, but running after the geese screaming "Fly my pretties, fly!" will definitely win you a trip to the Student Health Center. Pisces (February 19-March 20): You really should start focusing more in your math class. Sure, the pizza guy probably loved your 46% tip, but your wallet is going to hurt for a while now. m, x Aries (March 21-April 19): The saying is true, college is work. But are you just going to college for the rest of your life! Get off that couch and do some work, son. Bet you thought your mom couldn't follow you here. Well, you were wrong. Taurus (April 20-May 20): That girl in your Spanish class sure is attractive. But maybe you should pay attention to the teacher, instead of her. She's been insulting you under her breath for weeks. Too bad you don't know enough of the language to understand. Gemini (May 21-June 20): Alright! Look at £hat parking spot right up in front of the lot! Yeah. You didn't see the moped there, did you. Don't worry. It shouldn't be that expensive to fix. Cancer (June 21-July 22): Remember that one time you ripped your pants in front of the entire cafeteria in middle school? Not saying that's going to happen again...but it's going to happen again. Leo (July 23-August 22): Leo. Aren't you supposed to be bold like a lion? Hiding under your bed when the doorbell rings isn't even okay when you're home alone. But you're not home alone, are you? Muwahaha. Virgo (August 23-September 22): Well you made it through the first month and a half of the semester. How do you feel? Bad? Yeah. That doesn't get any better. In fact, you'll probably feel like that when you start the spring semester, too. T X I ASK THE RANGER: ADVICE COLUMN Email us your questions at rangernews@ uwp.edu with the subDear Ranger It is the 6th week of class and I find myself not doing so well in my classes. Its not that I am a bad student I just find myself overwhelmed this semester. What can I do to keep all of this work from burying me alive? - Sleepy in the Stacks Dear Sleepy, It sounds like the semester has become more than you anticipated. That's okay, it happens to everyone at some point in their college career. You are fortunate that you have taken the first step and are seeking assistance. The first thing is to determine why you are struggling so much; is it from a lack of organization? Or have you just bitten off more than you can chew? Once you have identified the problem you can begin to take steps to rectify the situation before it is too late. If your problem is a class taking up more time than you allotted then it may be time to reconsider your schedule. Dropping a class with a "W" isn't a worst thing in the world as long as you don't make a habit of it. The other option would be to talk with your professor and discuss your situation. If all else fails ask for an "Incomplete" and take it again with a lighter schedule. If your problem is more time management related then you should think about utilizing a p lanner to keep track of assignments and allot yourself specific times for each class' work. If the planner sounds like you I recommend using your smart phone calendar as a backup to your planner, this way you have your responsibilities even if you lose your planner or your phone. We have all been where you are and we all lived through it. You must stay positive, and don't worry yourself to death. Taking care of yourself is paramount to righting this ship. Don't forget to eat when you're cramming for that exam and make sure you are getting enough sleep. Too little of either is a recipe for disaster. Lastly, I commend you for standing up and saying that you couldn't do it on your own. It takes a lot of courage to say you can't accomplish something you thought you could. Don't despair, and accept the help offered to you. Utilize everything at your disposal; go to the tutoring center, visit your advisor, talk with your professors, and most of all don't let your fear • of failure freeze you in place. Remember you can succeed, you just have to try. ject "Ask the Ranger." Dear Ranger I am having a difficult time with my best friend. Recently their home life has become troublesome and they have started down a path of drinking and other reckless behavior that I don't agree with. What do I do to help my friend? -Hopeful Homie Dear Hopeful, Telling someone they are doing something they shouldn't be is hard enough. When it is your best friend it becomes something even more difficult, but if you feel it is your place to help them then do your best and be prepared for the worst. It sounds to me that whatever is happening in your friends life is traumatic enough to make them seek some form of escape. That being said if they are not choosing the healthiest outlets then it may be time to stage an intervention of sorts. Get together with your other friends, sit your friend down, and explain to them that their actions are beginning to concern you. Understand that your friend may see nothing wrong with their behavior and may take offense to what you have to say about their actions. Just remember that you are doing this for them because you care enough to see that they don't hurt themselves. People experience traumatic events differently; some people seek out other people while others cloister themselves away. Depending on the type of person your friend is you may need to alter the course of action that should be taken The one thing that is consistent about people in trouble is that you alone cannot change them They have to be willing to help themselves before anything you do can make a difference. Tire best way to get through to friends is to simply make it known that you are there for them and are willing to talk, listen, or anything that will help them Make it a point to tell them that what they are doing is making you concerned for their safety. Never tell them what there are doing is wrong vou want to be an ally not an enemy and judging is a quick way to find yourself on the outside looking ,n. In closing, if your friend is willing to admit that they are doubled you may want to direct them to the Student Health and Counsel !h g fit w re , t . hey ca " s / eak Wlth a professional who can help them work through their problems. And remember to always be the friend you have alwavs been; nothing makes a troubling time worse than losing a friend Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Most if not all of the money that is collected will be staying locally, supporting Wisconsin's own veterans in need. WIPZ will be helping with this event by selling tickets on the Bridge on Friday, March 20 from noon until 1 p.m. They have also had Jeff Gustin, who is in charge of putting together this great program, on their station and hope to have at least one of the bands playing on the station next week, including live performances from them. WIPZ plans to broadcast the event live come April 18. With enough interest from the student body at UW-Parkside, there will also be a shuttle transport from campus to the event and back.

March 19, 2015 The Ranger News 3 where Shakespeare's initial work takes place. Large mechanical beams were moved up and down in changing scenes, and some pieces of the set were lowered down by pulleys. A wooden platform, made to look aged and antique, had been placed center-stage, and was rotated in a circular motion while actors stood on top of it. Costume design didn't disappoint either. Actors and actresses were decked out in Steampunk outfits that suggested the garb of men and women from the Victorian period - old-fashioned pencil skirts, suits and vests, top hats and bowler hats, all with a touch of the mechanical, including watches and machinist's goggles. The costumes of the fairies were even more elaborate, with long heavy coats, and their stiff and awkward performances were a nod to the technological elements of Steampunk. In the case of the fairies, the lighting was dimmed, and green, blue and purple lights were emphasized to create a mystical feel whenever they took the stage. While the set and costume design was extraordinary, the most spectacular feature of the play was the actors and actresses themselves. All did an amazing job in performing the lines of Shakespeare, which some might consider dense and difficult to understand today. One of the best and most hilarious performances came from theater major Alex Griffin as Nick Bottom the Weaver. Griffin is a freshman at Parkside, but his charismatic and humorous portrayal of Bottom suggested that he has had many years of experience on the stage. As Bottom, Griffin was charming and funny, transforming from playing the valiant Pyramus to having his head turned into that of an ass's. Sophomore Catherine Kleinofen's performance as the mischievous fairy Puck also exhibited laughs from the crowd. Puck cunningly slunk around the stage, causing trouble for many of the characters. Blaine Conner played dual parts as both Theseus and the fairy king, Oberon. Similar to Griffin, Conner's charisma and dedication to the part carried the show along. Also playing dual parts as Hippolyta and the fairy queen Titania, Ashley Marie Rodriguez, a senior at UW-Parkside, was enchanting and alluring. Rodriguez showed a talent for slipping into the roles of two profoundly different characters. All actors and actresses did a fantastic job, but perhaps one of the most memorable moments of the show came when the character of Francis Flute, played by Jarrod Langwinski, had to outfit himself as the helpless woman Thisby, paramour to Pyramus in the play within a play put on by the rude mechanicals. In his hilarious Thisby outfit, Langwinski had two pieces of fruit to substitute as breasts, one of which kept falling out of his corset and rolling across the stage, leaving the audience in stitches! All in all, the UW-Parkside Theatre Arts production of "A Midsummer Night's Dream" was not only unique with its Steampunk reimagining, but it also exhibited the skill, talent, dedication and hard work that the theater department and theater students put into their undertakings. Even though the show is over, we can all continue to support UWParkside's theater arts by attending any future productions. Talent will not be wanting if you do! A Mechanical Midsummer Night's Dream Katlynne Davis davis086@uwp. edu With a unique and impressive series of costumes and set changes, the UW-Parkside Theatre Arts Department brought Steampunk to Shakespeare this March with its production of "A Midsummer Night's Dream," a show that kept the audience enthralled and laughing through every scene. Opening on March 6 and running through March 14, the production brought a new interpretation to an old play by combining one of Shakespeare's most popular works with the artistic movement of Steampunk. Steampunk originated as a subgenre of science fiction and fantasy that aimed to deconstruct or reimagine social and technological aspects of the nineteenth century by including characteristics of advanced machinery and the supernatural. Although it first began as a genre of literature, Steampunk has since expanded into music, fashion, film, television, video games and visual and performance art. For Director Matt Schwader, the choice to merge "A Midsummer Night's Dream" with Steampunk seemed an appropriate one. In the Director's Notes portion of the playbill, Schwader explains the decision to knit together two seemingly different genres: "For "Midsummer," we need a world in which a duke can win the heart of his enemy by war and wooing, a world where a parent can threaten a child with death for disobedience, where fairies rule the seasons, and reverie and reality are interchangeable. We need a world where our wildest dreams can come true. What better way to explore these fantastical ideas with our modern minds than in the whimsical universe of Steampunk?" Even without a detailed understanding of Steampunk as an artistic movement, the set, costumes and lighting all reflected an antique, mechanical and almost otherworldly atmosphere, hitting on Schwader's description of whimsy and the fantastic. One of the most impressive and interesting parts of the show was the set, which boasted a large circular structure in the backdrop, possibly meant to portray the gates of Athens NEED EXTRA CASH?

All season long, the men's and women's basketball teams have been doing the students, alumni and Ranger fans very proud. The men finished the regular season with a 25-2, winning their third straight GLVC East regular season crown under head coach Luke Reigel. The guys dominated opponents all season, and by doing so, knocked off the then number one team in the country, University of Indianapolis, in a wire-to-wire affair which saw the Rangers come out on top, 72-68. The men defended home court like true champions, only sustaining one loss on the year in front of the home fans at DeSimone Gym. This should come as no surprise - this team is by far one of, if not the deepest this school has ever seen. But who am I to make such claims? Just take it from the guy who's been coaching the team for twelve seasons. I spoke with Coach Reigel earlier in the season and he believed this was the deepest team he has had the pleasure of coaching. "This is the best bench we've had since I've been here," Reigel said. "One through seventeen, all of our guys can play." The boys entered conference tournament play ranked eighth regionally and third in the conference. The team knocked off Truman State in their opening game, falling 68- 67 to longtime foe Drury in the Semi-Finals in a riveting overtime game. Jimmy Gavin made the All-tournament team as well as being named to the All-Conference first team with "Ziggy" Riauka. Andy Mazurczak made second team All-Conference. Coach Luke Reigel also won his second Coach of the Year award. The men are ranked second in the Midwest Region bracket of the NCAA Tournament. No team has had a bigger turnaround season than the Ranger women's basketball team. In head coach Jacob Yorg's inaugural season, the team struggled to find their identity, posting a very lackluster 8-18 record, with 4-14 in the GLVC. They weren't feared coming into the season, but Coach Jacob Yorg and the team didn't care about outside expectations. The team knew the talent they possessed and set out to prove all the doubters wrong. They rattled off 12 straight victories, solidifying a very impressive 21-6 record. 1 spoke with Coach Yorg before their season began, and even then he stressed that although they are a young team, he saw the potential for them to grow into the squad that we saw dominate throughout the season. That was good enough to get the team a fourth seed heading into the GLVC tournament. The team knocked off Quincy University in their opening round game, 65-61. But like the men, they fell to rival Drury in the Semi-Finals, 70-66. Gaby Bronson decided to upgrade her second team All GLVC season a year ago to first team All GLVC this season, with Sarah Mlachnik being named to the All GLVC Defensive Team. The team is ranked seventh in the Midwest Region of the NCAA Tournament. Final Men's Standings GLVC East »... 1) Bellarmine 27-3 2) UW-PARKSIDE 26-3 3) Indianapolis 23-5 4) Lewis 21 -8 5) South.

The men kick off their journey to a championship on Saturday, March 15 against Lewis in Louisville. The women begin their fight on March 13 also against Lewis in Michigan. We here at The Ranger News believe we are in for a very special edition of March Madness. Go Rangers! This photo is courtesy of University of Wisconsin Parkside. March 19, 2015 The Ranger News 5 Entertainment Krista Skweres schra010@uwp.edu "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1": This is Why People Hate Two-Part Movies Tuesday March, 10 the Parkside cinema showed the latest installment of "The Hunger Games" series, "Mockingjay Part 1." This is Francis Lawrence's second film in this franchise as he stole films from original director Gary Ross. Although it was a major success financially, those viewers who haven't read the books found themselves waiting for an action that never happened. As always in these films, Jennifer Lawrence, Elizabeth Banks, Woody Harrelson and, new to the series, julianne Moore give great performances, with Josh Hutcherson's and Liam Hemsworth's performances reminding us that we're watching a film geared towards teens. The difference with this film compared to the others is the amount of information that is being presented instead of the action that fans of the previous films have come to expect. With the final book being broken into two movies rather than just one long film, director Francis Lawrence was extremely successful in leaving the crowd wanting more, or anything at all. True, with Hollywood trying to capitalize on the epidemic of the trilogy that is taking place in teenage literature of today's society, something has to fill each two hour period, but it would have been nice to have a little more to the story or just a slighdy shorter or longer movie so that it could cut out some things that might not be completely necessary or just finish it up. By the time that these book trilogies reach the big screen, there's a cult following, usually consisting of more adults than teens, of people who will see all the films in theaters regardless of anything they hear about them. These are the people that these two-part final books are banking on. The first film is almost always just filled with exposition and build-up, usually resulting in something shocking happening in the final moment of the movie. "Mockingjay Part 1" was no exception to this rule. In no way was it a bad movie. It actually was quite enjoyable. All the information in it points to a very successful and very action-packed final film. So now we all have to wait until November to see what will happen next for Miss Everdeen on her road to the Capital, but it promises to be more of a "edge of your seat" than "exposition" as this one was.

It's maple syrup season! This past year, Biological Sciences Department's botanists, Dr. David Higgs and Dr. David Rogers along with Vince Shaff and other faculty, staff and students launched a small project to try and harvest sap on Parkside's campus in order to make maple syrup. On Wednesday, March 11, Higgs and Rogers shared their interesting work during Parkside's Science Night with the surprising science behind maple syrup. With Rogers specializing in plant and forest ecology and Higgs in plant molecular biology and physiology, it made for a fascinating night. The sap harvesting season usually starts in March. Higgs and Rogers have already distributed their sap siphons and buckets throughout the Greenquist trees. You may spot a few of their blue buckets hanging on the trees. They use a more traditional way of collecting the sap, using a siphon and hanging a small container on the tree and then transporting it to a cooker to make the syrup. While this traditional way still exists in some places, today it is more common to use piping systems, instead of the buckets, that move the sap by gravity flow or vacuum systems into tanks where reverse osmosis starts the conversion into syrup instead of cooking. To make syrup, you need to remove 98 percent of the water in the sap, whether it be through reverse osmosis or cooking. What is left after that is your syrup. So if 98 percent of the water is removed, then what is syrup really made up of? Maple syrup is mainly made up of carbohydrates, and the makeup of a majority of those carbohydrates is sucrose. Essentially, sucrose is sugar and is what gives maple syrup that sweet taste that we all crave. Usually the syrup is about 88 to 99 percent sucrose. The concentration all depends on the time of year that it was harvested. In the late season there is less of a concentration of sucrose and more fructose and glucose. Fructose and glucose are also sugars, and actually derive from sucrose. Fructose and glucose are monosaccharides, simple sugars, and are the building blocks of sucrose, a disaccharide. When sucrose breaks down it is broken into those simple sugars. This breaking down process in the sap actually happens when the sap is sitting in the buckets, hanging on the trees. When it's later in the season the weather becomes warmer and becomes an incubator for yeasts and bacteria in the buckets, the culprit of splitting sucrose into fructose and glucose. This process is called inverting and is fueled by the enzyme invertase. This higher concentration of fructose and glucose still makes perfectly good syrup, just a different appearance and taste. When the sap is cooked down, the fructose and glucose actually caramelize which gives the syrup its darker coloring. This darker syrup is usually referred to as Grade B syrup. The sweetness comes from the sucrose, but what gives maple syrup that maple flavor? Higgs says that it is not completely understood, but is thought to be a combination of a specific mix of amino acids paired with the presence of the compounds maple furanone, strawberry furanone and maltose. So we have looked at sap at a chemical level, but what about the physiological side of it? Why are we able to draw out sap from a tree to make syrup? Higgs explains that the harvesting season only provides this small window because it is the time when the tree is transporting the sucrose from the roots to the branches. The syrup is essentially the product of last seasons photosynthesis. In the fall, before the tree looses it's leaves, the tree transports its energy that it stored from photosynthesis in the leaves down to the roots to store it over winter. This energy reserve in the roots is what the tree uses in the spring to make new leaves. The energy is stored as starch in the roots and leaves, but before being transported to either end of the tree, it is converted into sucrose, the sap we collect. While almost any maple tree has sucrose in the spring that can be used to make syrup, Dr. David Roger explained how to best identify the sugar maple tree (the best type of tree to tap). The Norway maple is the one maple tree that has a bitter sap that you can't make syrup from, and unfortunately is most similar looking to the sugar maple. You can tell the difference between these trees by looking at the leaves. The Norway maple has more lobes and long tapered teeth on their leaves while the sugar maple's leaves are smoother. But at the time of harvesting sap, the trees don't have any leaves left so the best way to identify the sugar maple is by looking at the buds and the bark of the tree. The sugar maple's buds are quite distinct. They are long and stiff and are made up of about 11 to 13 scales. They also often have ancillary buds. The bark is another way of identification. The sugar maple's bark has soft ridges and valleys and is a beautiful, light-grayish color. Once you have correctly identified the sugar maple trees, harvesting sap and making syrup is a very fun and interesting hobby. But it's not just a fun hobby. Wisconsin is actually the fourth largest producer of syrup in America, and Vermont makes the most syrup in the U.S. at about 42 percent. But worldwide, Canada is the boss in the maple syrup industry, making 80 percent of the world's maple syrup. Though the maple syrup industry booms and it's tastier than ever, Rogers brings to light studies that show that sugar maple trees are being greatly affected by climate change and global warming. Scientists' estimates show that the number of sugar maple trees will gready decrease over the years. Now just imagine how sad your mornings will be with no syrup on your pancakes. It's time to stop global warming. Top Five Dollar Store Buys Mark Weber mcgui018@uwp.edu As a college student, money always seems to be tight, and we are all looking for ways to make our dollar have as much purchasing power as possible. The dollar store can be a great place to do just that, but if you are like me, you can go in there, spend way more than you expected and come home with a bunch of stuff that may not be as big of a bargain as it seemed. Here are five buys that you can count on. ONE. Party supplies: You can get wrapping paper, gift bags, tissue paper, cards, invitations, decorations and balloons all for a dollar a piece. Most of these things are "disposable" by nature, so why spend more than you have to? THREE. Storage Containers: There are plenty of toss-and-go containers, sandwich bags, storage bags and aluminum foil-styled containers by name brand manufacturers. The dollar store does accept manufacturer coupons, so you can often buy these items for much less than a dollar a piece. FOUR. Office Supplies: Who doesn't always seem to need notepads, tape, sharpie markers or envelopes? It is important to buy the smallest amount of some of these items as possible, because things like pencils, crayons and scissors are real hit or miss as far as quality or longevity goes. You can't buy everything in a dollar store and believe that it will be the best thing ever, but we hope that these suggestions will help you stretch all of your pennies. TWO. Glassware: There are plenty of plates, bowls, wine glasses, martini glasses, mugs and other glasses to choose from, and these affordable items are great if you are just getting your first place. FIVE. Candy! There is a big selection of candy including some of your favorite movie theater candies to be had. Sometimes the portions are smaller than you might expect, but candy! March 19, 2015 The Ranger News 7 OPINION Governor Walker's Budget Offers More Questions than Solutions by Mark Weber When Governor Walker unveiled his new budget, one of the key components was a thirteen percent cut of state funding for the University of Wisconsin higher education system. Widespread concern throughout the UW system spread. Chancellors from different UW branches talked of how this would affect their schools, and ultimately the students. But what do we really know about the impact of this budget? How will it affect us here at UWParkside? The answer seems to be a resounding: "We are not quite sure." Here is what we do know. We know that the Governor has done this before. We know that when things get cut, they stay cut, and there is no use in trying to get him to change his mind. He has a very precise idea of what he wants, and whether you agree with it or not, he is going to carry that idea forward. So where does that leave the UW system as a whole? More directly, where does that leave UW-Parkside and Parkside students? Let's look at it from large scale to small. This budget will go into effect in two years, beginning in the year 2017. That means the system has two years to figure out how it is going to handle the reduction of funding. Throughout the system the consensus seems to be that in order to function under the new budget, there will have to be a serious loss of jobs, first and foremost. The Chancellor of UW-Milwaukee forecast a loss of 200 to 300 personnel, UW-Stout predicted 50 to 90 and UW-Stevens Point estimated around 115. The leaders of both UW-Madison and UW-River falls have said that there seems to be no way to avoid layoffs and that there is a high possibility that jobs will be cut. But what type of jobs? The Chancellor of UW-Milwaukee said that it would have to start with Administrative jobs first, then there would be a decrease in full-time professors with a switch to more parttime adjunct professors, then research funding would be cut and finally, costs to students. Here at UW-Parkside, this reporter was told by a reliable source that is currently teaching here that already ten current teachers that hold multiple positions within their departments have been told that they will not be coming back. Another source who is a long time professor here said, on the condition of anonymity, that he was aware of professors either losing their jobs entirely or getting pay cuts, while administration was being given raises. A student senator told us that when discussing the budget with the Chancellor here at Parkside, the perception was that our Chancellor was unsure of exactly what was going on. We do know that there is a tuition freeze that lasts until 2017, so if you are going to graduate within that time frame, you do not have to be concerned about that. But it seems like you do have to be concerned about larger classes, fewer teachers being asked to accomplish more tasks and possibly a smaller admin- ~ istration staff to assist you with your non-scholastic concerns. After 2017 there is a big cloud of confusion as to what will happen to the students. The Governor was asked and he said that there would be an "inflation-based cap" on tuition, but that was not specifically written in the budget. This reporter encourages all of ~ you to go to the uwp.edu webpage, and at the bottom of the page there are links to view a budget summary, the governor's speeches and transcripts as well as reactions to this budget. What we do know is that the UW-system is losing money from the state. What we don't know is how hard it will hit us and in what fashion, and not knowing seems to be worse than the facts. Effectively Workout at Home with Parkside's New Mini Course by Chelsie Aloisi We have all heard the excuses as to why we don't work out more — there's not enough time, I'll just eat better or the more popular of the two, it is simply too costly to join a gym. Signing up for a gym membership can be expensive and those extra hidden fees are no fun for anyone. But what if you didn't have to join a gym to stay fit and healthy? What if you could workout at home in your PJs without paying beaucoup dollars? Student activity organizations here on campus have developed innovative health activities for all students to participate in at little to no cost. This month, along with the Ranger Wellness activities, Parkside is offering what they call a "mini course" in working out at home. The course will be taught by Synchronicity, a successful Pilate studio in Racine that is also teaming up with Parkside to provide education on how to work out at home. The course is described as being an excellent tool for those who want to maximize their at home workouts, as is illustrated under the course description: "You don't need to spend hundreds of dollars on costly equipment or a personal trainer. Learn effective exercises for your entire body using a variety of resistance tools, bands, weights, body bar, etc. to achieve lifelong functional strength that you can do right at home. Regardless of your fitness level or age, there's still time to strengthen and tone muscles and joints to prevent further bone loss and feel an increased level of energy." The course will be held at Synchronicity, 6800 Washington Ave., on Saturday, March 21 from 9:00 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. Those interested need to reserve spots ahead of time and there is a cost of $19 per person to join that Saturday.
