The state of Iowa and Iowa State have a history of being first.
The Iowa legislature was the first state to accept the terms of the Morrill Act in 1862, making practical education available in the state through its land-grant university.
Iowa Agricultural College, the university’s original name, started when farmers from Sioux County approached Professor P.G. Holden to help them with their seed corn germination rate, initiating Iowa State’s connec-tion to the Iowa community with Extension and Outreach.
The Smith-Lever Act, passed 100 years ago, was legislation that created federal, formalized cooperative extension programs.
“[Iowa State] kind of did a number of things first,” said Cathann Kress, vice president for Extension and Outreach.
The department was the third portion of the land-grant school system along with teach-ing and research. The extension leg became a part of Iowa Agri-cultural College in 1903 and is now the second largest program at Iowa State, behind the Col-
lege of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Kress said.
The mission of Extension and Outreach is simply to pass on knowledge from the land-grant college to people of the state who could utilize its breakthroughs.
Kress described early Exten-sion and Outreach as being an expert-driven model. With no Internet to look up answers to agriculture, family sciences and health questions, people turned to the department for answers.
“We kind of were the Google,” Kress said.
Lyn Brodersen, assistant vice president for Extension and Out-reach, said that those founding subjects have now grown to in-clude every college at Iowa State.
“We have broadened signifi-cantly, and that’s unusual nation-wide,” Brodersen said.
Kress echoed this by saying Iowa State’s name for the depart-ment shows its broad portfolio.
The original term, Coopera-tive Extension, related to agricul-ture, home economics and 4-H programs. By using the term Ex-tension and Outreach, Iowa State reflects the influence of other disciplines, including design and engineering.
“Even 4-H reflects this shift,” Kress said, pointing out programs
in robotics and nanotechnology for Iowa’s youth.
In the next 100 years, Ex-tension and Outreach may look more toward three main points that likely were not considered in 1914.
“That’s one we’ve been ask-ing ourselves a lot,” Kress said about looking 100 years down the road.
The points of interest are demographic trends leading to older, urban and multicultural communities; technology includ-ing smartphones, biorenewables and manufacturing; and glo-balization as it relates to local economies.
By having a broad scope in Iowa, nearly one million people directly benefit from the depart-ment’s educational programs,
according to the department’s annual report in 2013.
Brodersen said students can get involved with Extension and Outreach by applying for intern-ships with the organization and by participating in any program-ming available. She added that the department can help with a number of questions about landscaping, job opportunities and virtually anything state-wide.
“That’s the beauty of what we do,” Kress said. “We can tailor things very specifically to what you need.”
Kress also pointed out the possibilities that lay with Exten-sion and Outreach.
“I think in Extension and Outreach there are such great op-portunities. Everybody can par-ticipate and innovate,” Kress said.

GPSS explains,clarifieschanges to grants
The new system of awarding Professional Advancement Grants was clarified for Graduate and Pro-fessional Student Senate senators at the monthly meeting Monday.
PAGs are grants awarded by GPSS to help offset the cost of at-tending professional conventions, whether students are traveling to present research or only to attend the convention.
The system has been a point of contention and sometimes confu-sion throughout the semester. The changes to the amount of funds distributed for each award, how awards are distributed and how the application process is conducted have all been met with resistance at one point or another this year.
Under the new process, set to go into effect Jan. 15, all awarded applicants will be reimbursed for up to $200 of their travel expenses. The old system awarded research presenters $200, but non-present-ers were only reimbursed $120.
The number of grants award-ed for 2015 is estimated to be 47, or nine percent fewer than 2014 under the new rules.
The system has also changed from awarding grants on a first-come, first-serve basis to a lottery system. They are now awarded on a monthly basis instead of a semes-ter basis, and applications must now be received by the 15th day of the month prior to the month that travel occurs.
Cory Kleinheksel, chair for Professional Advancement Grants, said fairness was a major factor in deciding to amend the system.
“Before we had applications for August competing against ap-plications for December on a first-come, first-serve basis,” Kleinhek-sel said.
If an applicant has never re-ceived a grant before, they are considered high priority and given first preference when grants are awarded.
The senate may consider amending the grant process again at its November meeting based on Senate and constituent feedback.
Senate Bill F14-09, allocating more than $9,000 to 14 clubs and organizations, was passed with 89 percent of the vote. No individual club or organization was given more than $800.
In other senate business, Mi-chael Crum, vice president for economic development and indus-try relations, spoke to the Senate about Iowa State’s commitment to help students apply their research to entrepreneurship.
The Office of Economic De-velopment and Industry Relations is new this year and works to help external stakeholders connect with and work with the university.
Crum said 200 more acres have been annexed for the expan-sion of the ISU Research Park.
“We are currently at about 1,500 employees out there,” Crum said. “We think in 10 to 12 years, a very conservative estimate by a consulting firm we hired, is that we could be at 6,500 to 7,000 employ-ees out there.”
Lisa Lorenzen, director of the Office of Intellectual Property and Technology Transfer, said the organization’s mission is to com-mercialize technologies for the public good and encourage gradu-ate students to think about the ap-plication of their research.
“If you’re going to be an en-trepreneur you better think [your research] is great,” Lorenzen said. “If you don’t think it’s great then who else will.”

Career in fearScreams pierced the night,
and figures in masks roamed the forest, seeking innocent wander-ers as their next prey.
No one is actually in danger — unless it’s the danger of wetting themselves.
For nearly 15 years , the Haunted Forest in Ames has been a popular attraction for all ages. It has also been a popular activity for those behind the mask.
“You get paid to scare people. What’s better than that?” said Megan Beck, junior in industrial engineering and an actor at the Haunted Forest.
Lynn and Lee Ballard are brothers who founded the Haunt-ed Forest 15 years ago with their father, Orville Ballard. Since then it has been a family-run business.
“It’s an outdoor haunted at-traction. It’s about a 20 minute walk through the forest, with a few mazes and rooms,” Lynn said. “Our customers enter the forest, and they are on their own.”
Lynn said the Haunted For-est has been a success for many years.
“We always draw a big crowd, even after all these years,” Lynn said. “We have people come from a hundred mile radius.”
Lynn said the attraction is based on the people who do the scaring.
“It’s family-run, but we em-ploy around 40 actors who range from hired personnel to Iowa State students,” Lynn said.
Lee Ballard said the attrac-tion would not be the success it is without the actors.
“Without them, it would be nothing,” Lee Ballard said.
For actors at haunted houses, scaring is an experience that is very different than being scared.
Not only do the actors have to scare as many people as pos-sible, but they are required to make sure participants make it through the forest safely.
Lee said the actors have cre-ative freedom to use whatever scare tactics they want in the Haunted Forest.
“When we hire them, we tell them that they can do whatever they’d like, and we’ll help them make it happen,” he said. “They bring in all these ideas for cos-tumes and scenes and so on. It’s just amazing how they come to
together. They find a spot in the forest, and they do great things.”
The actors find the best fea-tures of the job is the creative freedom.
Actors from Haunted Forest reveal their behind-the-scenes tactics
Blake Lanser/Iowa State DailyThe Haunted Forest in Ames is open this weekend for people to come and experience the thrill of wandering through a haunted forest. Many of the actors who scare people visiting the forest are ISU students, who love dressing up and scaring people.

For the third time in nine weeks, ISU libero Caitlin Nolan won the Big 12 Defensive Player of the Week award, the conference announced Monday.
Nolan, a junior from Southlake, Texas, etched her name in the Big 12 record books during Iowa State’s win against then-No. 18 RPI Kansas on Oct. 22, tallying 43 digs in the Cyclones’ five-set victory. Those 43 digs set an ISU record and tied the Big 12
record for digs in a single match.
S h e f o l l o w e d u p that performance with 35 digs, the second-most for a match in her career, in a five-set loss at Baylor on Oct. 25.
Her 78 digs over 10 sets gave her a blister-ing pace of 7.8 digs per set last week and helped extend her lead in the Big 12 digs per set race.
Nolan is now averag-ing 5.72 digs per set on the season and holds a 0.67 margin of the next-closest player.
Her 406 digs this season are also the most
in the Big 12 by a single player.
This week’s award is Iowa State’s 39th overall and fourth of the sea-son, as freshman middle blocker Alexis Conaway took home the honor on Sept. 15.
The ISU volleyball team leads the Big 12 in Defensive Player of the Week awards all-time and this season.
The Cyclones have a mid-week bye this week, but return to action at 2 p.m. Nov. 2 against Texas at Hilton Coliseum. The match will be televised on ESPNU.

Goblins, ghosts and ghouls, among other cos-tumes, will be haunting the Memorial Union from 6-8 p.m. Oct. 28 for the greek community’s annual trick-or-treat event.
Greek Trick or Treat, which will be held in the Sun Room of the Memorial Union, is an event open to children in Ames and sur-rounding communities, as well as children of faculty and staff. There is no cost to attend.
The event was created several years ago as a way for greek students to give back to the community and interact with local families.
“I enjoy being involved because it provides a fun environment filled with many activities and treats for local families to par-ticipate and interact with greek students,” said David Nguyen, coordinator for Greek Trick or Treat and senior in chemical engi-neering.
Nguyen, along with Er-ika Gebard, senior in archi-tecture, and Amina Frazier, sophomore in industrial engineering, are in charge of planning the event.
Greek members dress up in Halloween costumes that will promote a safe and fun atmosphere for the children and their families. The members are involved in running stations, hand-ing out candy to all of the sweet-toothed children and participating in activi-ties with the kids.
Chapters that were in-terested in participating in this event created different proposals. All four councils of the greek community are represented and nearly 20 greek chapters are involved in the event this year.
“[Gebard], [Frazier]
and I reviewed proposals and selected activities for each group to provide an array of activities,” Nguyen said. “Chapters are bring-ing the supplies for the ac-tivities, and we are supply-ing the treats.”
There are a variety of activities taking place at the event. Some activities include face painting, pin the face on the pumpkin, a rubber duck pond and more. Children are able to participate in games like Spooky Simon Says and witch hat ring toss to earn more treats to take home.
The greek communi-ty marketed the event by reaching out to the univer-sity, local newspapers and the Ames and Boone Com-munity School Districts.
Nearly a 100 children participated last year. The event has taken place out-side in the past, with the families and children walk-ing up to each decorated greek house.
T h e t r i c k - o r - t r e a t route would go past frater-nities and sororities on Ash Avenue and wind around sorority circle.
For the past few years, the event was held in a building in order to prevent problems with the weather and to create a safe envi-ronment for the children.
T h e l o c a t i o n h a s changed this year to the Memorial Union because it is well known in the com-munity and has many park-ing spaces. The Sun Room provided the capacity to host the different activities during this event.
“Greek Trick or Treat provides us the opportuni-ty to outreach to the Ames community,” said Katy Cran, director of Greek Af-fairs. “It gives the opportu-nity for kids and families to have a safe, indoor op-portunity for on-campus interaction with students.”
Event provides children chance to interact with greek community
Multicultural student enrollment has steadily been increasing over the past several years. Kenyatta Shamburger, director of Multicultural Student Af-fairs, attributes that to the ISU admissions team’s re-cruitment efforts.
“Iowa State has a good name and a good brand and a good reputation,” Sham-burger said. “When things are going well people want to be a part of that.”
Iowa State has seen a steady rise in African Amer-ican or black students since 2010, increasing from 572 to 693, according to the ISU Fact Book.
There has been a rise in Hispanic or Latino stu-dents and Native Hawai-
ian or students from other Pacific islands. In 2009, there were 770 Hispanic or Latino students and 1,334 the 2013-2014 school year. There were seven Native Hawaiian and students from other Pacific islands in 2009, while there were 29 in 2013-2014.
The total number of minority students in 2009 was 2,532. This year there are nearly 4,000.
“As students come, they find that there is sup-port for them here,” Sham-burger said.
There are a number of resources for multicultural students, such as clubs and organizations and the Of-fice of Multicultural Stu-dent Affairs.
Multicultural students are defined as domestic individuals who were born and raised in the United
States. They choose Iowa State for a number of rea-sons.
Jerrel Ellis, junior in criminal justice, is origi-nally from Texas. Ellis said he chose Iowa State be-cause he was chosen as a recipient of the George Washington Carver Schol-arship. This scholarship is a tuition-based scholar-ship offered by the Office of Multicultural Student Affairs.
Ellis said it was easy to get connected at Iowa State and that students care about each other. He de-scribed the ISU community as a family.
Ell is said he thinks diversity is important to have on campus and be-gan getting involved when he arrived. He is now the president of the Men of Color Collective.
The Men of Color Col-lective’s goal is to create a safe environment for stu-dents of color to discuss their problems within a group.
“ [ D i v e r s i t y ] o p e n s people to different per-spectives and views,” Ellis said. “Everyone isn’t from the same place.”
Delysea Watson, fresh-man in agricultural busi-ness, said it is important for multicultural students to be involved in clubs and organizations.
“It’s not only good to put on a resume,” Watson said. “It expands your hori-zons. It opens your network to many different people.”
Multicultural students can also participate in mentoring programs and greek life.
“Being involved on campus gives opportunity
for leadership, growth and development,” Shamburg-er said. “It also allows you to interact with people that are different than yourself.”
Despite the numerous opportunities for involve-ment for multicultural stu-dents, they can still face challenges.
One challenge that Watson still believes exists is discrimination.
She knows there are some students on campus who may have never been exposed to multicultural students prior to coming to Iowa State.
Shamburger said it can be difficult for students walking across campus and not seeing someone who looks like them.
Students who have not had that interaction with multicultural students may have preconceived stereo-
types they have created.“There are students
who may have never in-teracted with students of color,” Shamburger said. “There may be things that they say or do that’s of-fensive.”
Watson said she would prefer to answer questions rather than have people make assumptions.
Multicultural students bring a variety of interests to campus. Shamburger said these students not only bring diversity but they bring diverse perspectives, intel lectual judgment, scholarship and curiosity.
“As we think about global citizenship, as we think beyond ourselves anywhere we go, we are going to cross paths with someone that is different than us,” Shamburger said.

Trick or treat
Blake Lanser/Iowa State DailyIvan Robak, 1, and Tallis Garcia, 3, pick ducks to win candy during the 2013 Greek Trick or Treat event. Members of the greek community volunteered for two hours to hand out candy to members of the Ames community at Howe Hall. The event is designed to give greek community members the chance to give back to Ames and surrounding communities. This year’s event will be held today in the Sun Room of the Memorial Union from 6 to 8 p.m.
The Ames City Coun-cil will be discussing new apartment buildings, street vendors and transportation at its meeting today.
The council will be holding a hearing for the approval of three new apart-ment buildings at 4710 Mortensen Road.
These three buildings will be built on the 1.7-acre parcel of land that was re-cently rezoned from com-munity commercial/resi-dential to floating suburban residential medium-density.
The rezoning allows for one-family homes or apart-ments with up to 10 people to be built.
T h e a p p l i c a n t , Westowne Apartments, is hoping to receive approv-
al for 35 units. These new buildings would hold 115 bedrooms for an average of 3.3 bedrooms per unit.
A change in the mu-nicipal code for on-street vendors is being proposed due to complaints and is-sues with language in the ordinance.
These changes would include limiting where ven-dors can set up to allow for a four-foot walkway, limit-ing the noise level of carts that play music, limiting illuminated signage and al-lowing for 24-hour-a-day operations.
T h e c o d e c h a n g e s would include vending carts, vending persons, mobile vending vehicles and side-walk sales.
The current code does not work well for both the city and vendors, warranting the change in code to in-
clude more than definitions.The Heart of Iowa Re-
gional Transit Agency is seeking $2,500 to pay for a facilitator to help meet the demands of the communi-ties that the agency serves.
The agency is a door-to-door transit service that runs in Boone, Dallas, Jasper, Madison, Marion, Story and Warren counties.
The facilitator would help run conversations be-tween human service agen-cies and transportation pro-viders about how the agency is working and what can be improved.
The two groups hope to make a plan to better ac-commodate riders.
Local bars Score!, Lon-don Underground, South-gate Expresse and The Other Place are looking to renew their liquor licenses at the meeting as well.

Iowa State has part-nered with Food At First in Ames to donate the dining centers’ leftover food.
Iowa State has four dining centers, 11 cafes, three convenience stores and a catering service. They serve thousands of stu-dents each day and always have leftover food at the end of the day.
Food At First is a free meal program and food pantry that serves the com-munity seven days a week. There are no requirements and no questions asked for those who use the ser-vices. Most meals served are evening meals, and all are served at First Unit-ed Methodist Church in downtown Ames.

Nancy Keller, director of Campus Dining Services. The students were the ones who did the research and got connected with Food At First.
“By partnering with student organizations it helps us find places to part-ner with, and students do the research that we might not otherwise have time to do,” said Kent Davis, com-munications specialist for ISU Dining.
Through leftovers from the dining centers, Iowa State donates hundreds of meals each month. A crew of volunteers from Food At First come to the c-stores to pick up food each day and leftovers from ISU Catering twice a week.
They also receive the leftovers from home foot-ball games and the produce and perishable food items from ISU Dining at the end of semesters.
“I don’t know if we’d be able to accomplish what we do without the help of student volunteers,” said Chris Martin, director of Food At First.
The ISU Dining is con-tinuing research on how they can do the same type
of partnership with Iowa State’s catering program. They have done some trial runs that have been suc-cessful in providing the leftover food from the ca-tering service to Food At First.
“We’re looking at baby steps,” Davis said.
There are many differ-ent organizations across campus that participate in helping Food At First i n c l u d i n g : I S U M o r t a r Board, ISU Pre-Med Club, ISU Dairy Science Club, ISU ROTC, CyServe, the Freshman Honors Pro-gram, the biochemistry learning community and many others.
Iowa State makes huge contributions to Food At First and the people they serve, Martin said.
Not only do the left-overs go to Food At First, b u t t h e r e a r e c a m p u s events year-round that benefit the organization as well.
“It’s perfectly good food and we’re glad people can use it,” Davis said. “It’s great to have students like this on campus who want to make the world a better place.”

OPINION 5Tuesday, Oct. 28, 2014
The annual documents for releasing apartments have started to flood regular and electronic mailboxes across Ames. Leasing companies are beginning to fight for new and old renters due to the increasing population size of the cam-pus area and Ames in general.
In a fury to grab the cheapest apart-ment with as many benefits as possible, it’s important to read the lease that you are signing from beginning to end.
There are many problems that can arise during the length of your lease that can get renters into a lot of trouble.
College students tend to be more concerned with who is going to be their roommates and how many beers fit in the refrigerator rather than whether or not their contract says they can have pets or how many cars are allowed to be parked in the driveway.
Reading the lease is a simple fix for some of the largest questions people have. Getting a fine for having candles lit because you forgot to read your lease is ridiculous. The situation gets trickier when people are moving from one leas-ing company to another.
The most popular time for students to sign their leases the for following year is in the fall, and many months pass be-tween when you sign the lease and when you actually move into your new home.
Reading and remembering your move-in dates is important because this ensures that you will not be spend-ing the night, or a couple of nights, on a friend’s couch.
Leasing agencies do not all have the same move-in dates. While some leasing agencies will let you move in as soon as your last contract ends not everyone will be so lucky.
One of the biggest problems Ames renters have is the argument of when their lease ends. Some contracts within Ames start Aug. 26 and end Aug. 1.
If you decide to renew your lease for another year with the same company, you’re able to stay in the same building and apartment without moving out.
However, if you want to live in apartment A for one year and move to apartment B a year later, you may be “homeless” for nearly a month. Some renting companies will demand you be moved out by July 31, even if your apartment B contract doesn’t allow you to move in until Aug. 26.
Many renters will complain to their leasing companies about the unfair terms.
While some may view these clauses within the leases as unfair it is the rent-er’s responsibility to know what is in each lease, depending on where he or she wants to live. Do not skim through the lease or disregard the fine print be-cause you are excited about living with your friends.
It is important for students to know how to choose an apartment based on their needs. If you have a pet and move into a unit that does not allow pets, you have to be responsible enough to set up accommodations with someone to take your pet while you are living in your new place.
The same goes for finding out the move-in and move-out dates. It is not your leasing company’s job to hold your hand and find you a place to live when you cannot live in your new place.
Read the lease and plan accord-ingly. Don’t be left out in the summer heat because you got too excited.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Read rental agreements before signing
Brian Mozey/Iowa State DailyMany students are renewing or signing a new lease for next year without reading the fine print. It’s im-portant to read everything so you aren’t surprised.
Iowa State DailyBryan Johnson, senior in architecture, carves pumpkins on Oct. 20, 2013 in Sigma Alpha Epsilon’s driveway. The tradition of carving pumpkins origi-nated from an old legend involving a thief, angry townspeople and a deal struck with the devil, something Americans either don’t know or forgot.
Respect Halloween’s history
“On H a l l o w e e n y o u must beware, for frightful things are
everywhere!” All Hallows’ Eve has been around for centuries, but over the years traditional Halloween has become a shad-ow of its former self.
The tradition of Halloween originated as a Celtic festival known as Samhain and was celebrated on Oct. 31 to signify the end of the harvest season in the Gaelic culture.
This date was selected be-cause it was believed that it was the day that the dead could mingle with the living. It was thought that people who had passed could come back and cause wide-spread illness and damage to the newly harvested crops before the winter months set in.
In order to distract the souls, Celts would burn mas-sive bonfires where they would provide offerings of food or animals and wear masks to keep the spirits at bay.
This is also the reason bats are so heavily associated with this spooky holiday. The bon-fires would attract large quanti-ties of bugs and therefore cause bats to swarm to try and eat them.
Bats are not the only sym-bol used in modern-day Hallow-een that is historically rooted. Jack-o’-lanterns were not origi-nally used to decorate houses on
Beggars’ Night. In fact a jack-o’-lantern wasn’t even supposed to be made out of a pumpkin.
The most common associ-ated legend is centered around a thief named Jack who was being chased by villagers. On his race through town he met the devil. Jack convinced him to turn into a coin so he could pay the villag-ers for what he had taken.
After the devil transformed into the coin, Jack put him in his pocket where he also had a cross. That cross stripped stripped the devil of his powers until Jack agreed to set him free.
After the devil promised to never drag his soul to hell, Jack freed him. When Jack died he could not go to heaven because of his poor life choices, and he could also not go to hell because the devil kept his word.
The devil tossed Jack an ember from the fires of hell that Jack used it to light a lantern he had carved out of a turnip.
He used this lantern to wander the earth for all eternity. Thus he became known as Jack of the Lantern, known today as jack-o’-lantern.
Keep in mind this is a leg-end, but it does shed an en-tirely new light on the popular Halloween activity of pumpkin carving.
This legend also brings to the table the fact that as a cul-ture we have taken what was once considered a very impor-tant holiday in Eastern cultures and turned it into a costume-wearing, candy-consuming free-for-all.
Scottish and Irish immi-grants brought the idea of All Hallows’ Eve to North America during the potato famine. It did not take long for the people of this country to entirely abandon the original meaning. The first recorded reference to wear-ing costumes and going door-to-door begging for treats was in 1911, but this was never a practice of the original Hallow-een. The term trick-or-treat was widely known by the 1930s.
However, it does slightly resemble the practice of “soul-ing,” which was when the poor would go door-to-door on Hal-lowmas, Nov. 1 or All Saints’ Day, and pray for the souls of the dead.
North Americans took this holistic practice and turned it into a self-serving act of pure gluttony; how very modern-America of them.
As Americans, we have this uncanny gift for taking things that once meant a great deal to a certain religion or cultural group and glossing over its true meaning, and the same senti-ment applies for Halloween.
Although children get a thrill consuming pounds of candy, to the horror of their parents, and teenagers use the day as an excuse to dress like a slutty cat, perhaps we should remember what Halloween was originally meant for and why it is we are celebrating this day in the first place.
“Hist and hark, draw close and tremble, tis this the night that ghosts assemble.”
We need to ensure that our community is fighting against the childhood obe-sity epidemic and turning our community’s health around. More than 1 in 6 children are obese, and even more are overweight and on their way to obesity.
This outrageous num-ber has many negative health implications. From being at a higher risk for diabetes, car-
diovascular disease and cancer to having a higher chance of being an overweight or obese adult, this growing trend has to stop. We must address the problem before it is too late.
I ask for community sup-port as we must come together to tackle this issue and strive to make a beneficial change in our society. We need to ad-dress the problem presented to us, which is that we are too sedentary. We could greatly improve out eating habits to improve our health and weight.
This is not just a problem for a few. We need to come to-gether as families and friends to become more physically active and promote healthier eating styles. Not only will this be beneficial to those with a higher weight, but it will positively impact everyone’s health.
This is a condition that is completely preventable, and I feel it is unacceptable. The data reveals the implica-tions of this problem. Please take the time to look at the data from the Weight Control
Information Network to fully comprehend the seriousness of the issue at hand.
Working against child-hood obesity will aid in restor-ing our nation’s health and quality of life.
Please contact your local legislator and tell him or her to support policies fighting childhood obesity. If we can all make personal and com-munity changes and encour-age others to do the same, we can move mountains. If we are able to fight together, the impact could be monumental.

Kelby Wingert/Iowa State DailyRedshirt junior quarterback Sam Richardson rushes the ball during the Homecoming game against Toledo on Oct. 11 at Jack Trice Stadium. Because of increased protection from the offensive line, Richardson has been playing better.
S a m R i c h a r d s o n i s playing some of the best football he’s ever played, and the numbers back it up.
Richardson has had back-to-back 300-yard passing games, only the third quarterback in school history to do so at Iowa State.
R i c h a r d s o n i s a l s o completing over 60 percent of his passes, and he leads the team in rushing.
The junior quarterback even broke a school re-
cord earlier this year for the most completions in a single game when he con-nected with his receivers 37 times against Toledo.
“I think he’s grown up,” said ISU coach Paul Rhoads. “I think he’s played at a high level, but there is still a ceiling to reach. With a year-and-a-half to go, I’m very excited to see the growth that is going to con-tinue to take place.”
A lot of different things have factored into Rich-ardson’s recent success, but Rhoads says that one specific area has had a big impact: the offensive line.
“One of the things that
Mark [Mangino] noticed right away about Sam a year ago when he came in was that he was spending more time looking at the defense rushing him than he was the progression of our receivers and the pass game downfield,” Rhoads said. “He’s not having to do that now.”
Last season, Richard-son sustained an ankle injury in the first week of play.
He continued to strug-gle with injuries through-out the rest of the season and was unable to finish the season.
R h o a d s s a i d t h e
growth of the offensive line during the off-season has given Richardson much more time to work through his progression, something he wasn’t fully able to do last year.
“He got hit early, and he got hurt early,” Rhoads said. “He started feeling that and moving; more of a flight rather than fight. That was a byproduct of what wasn’t getting done up front.”
The offensive line is led by redshirt senior cen-ter Tom Farniok.
Farniok, along with senior tackle Jacob Gan-non, has started at least one
game in the past four years. F a r n i o k a l s o h a s a
team-high 42 starts, which is the third most in the Big 12 among active players.
The experience that Farniok brings and that he has with the other linemen is something that he says has really impacted their play this season.
“ I t m a k e s i t e a s i e r when you know the guy that you’re next to,” Far-niok said. “Everyone has got little things that they do a little bit different.
“You want that feel for each other, and when you have a consistent core of guys it’s easier to devel-
op that. That’s why we’ve been successful the past two weeks.”
And with Oklahoma up next on the schedule Nov. 1, the line, as well as the rest of the team, is focused on confidence.
“A big piece of that is confidence,” Rhoads said. “That’s something that we’ve highlighted in the past eight or nine days and will continue to highlight as we go forward.
“One of the ways you eliminate any doubt is to have confidence, and we’ve talked about the various ways to gain that confi-dence as we take the field.”
Protection improves passing gameBy [email protected]
ISU center Tom Far-niok hoped his younger brother Derek would come to Iowa State, but when Oklahoma came calling, Tom knew where Derek would be headed.
Now a 6-foot-9-inch, 329-pound left tackle for the Sooners (5-2, 2-2 Big 12), Derek has played in all seven games this season as a redshirt junior.
He will likely see the field Nov. 1 when Okla-homa plays Iowa State (2-5, 0-4 Big 12) at Jack Trice Stadium.
The brothers Farniok have seen each other on opposing sidelines before, but, in what is Tom’s senior year, this game will be the
final time.“None of us realize
how awesome it has been until it’s kind of starting to wind down,” Tom said. “You get to play against [Derek] and [Oklahoma is] as talented of a team as there is, so it’s a great personal challenge.”
Tom and Derek, the two oldest of four Farniok brothers, grew up in a foot-ball family. Their father Brad played football at St. Cloud State, and an uncle played at South Dakota State.
Tom said that of the four brothers, the best may be yet to come. Matt, the third oldest, is a four-star offenisive lineman in the class of 2016 and is already garnering attention from m a j o r p r o g r a m s . I o w a State, Iowa, Nebraska and
Minnesota have already set their sights on Matt, and more offers are likely to come.
“He’s massive, and he’s unbelievably talent-ed,” Tom said about Matt. “He’s more talented than he knows, but I’ll never tell him that.”
Consistency CountsWith a bye week fol-
lowing the Oct. 18 Texas game, the ISU defense had time to think about what improvements needed to be made.
The consensus? Con-sistency.
“At times we have po-tential to be a really good defense,” said defensive tackle Mitchell Meyers. “There’s a lot of drives where [Texas] scored quick-ly on us and then there are some where they’re just
three-and-outs.”St icking out in the
minds of most associated with ISU football will be Texas’ first and final drives.
T h e f i r s t d r i v e f o r the Longhorns took three plays and 55 seconds, and it culminated in a 28-yard touchdown pass.
The final drive, which resulted in the game-win-ning field goal, took only 25 seconds as the Longhorns drove 68 yards.
“We gave up far too many deep balls [and] big plays,” said ISU coach Paul Rhoads. “We started the game with a miscommu-nication and didn’t get a gap fit, and we gave them a layup to start the game and allowed the quarterback to get get in a rhythm for how he’s playing, so we’d like to not do that again.”
Farniok brothers face off one last time By [email protected]
The ISU Rugby Club, led by a senior duo of cap-tain Ben Sauer and Brandon Bay, is looking to translate last year’s success into this season and make a run at the National Championship tournament.
L a s t y e a r t h e t e a m made it to the Division 1-AA Round of 16 before losing against Bowling Green Uni-versity.
Malcolm Robertson has been the head coach for more than a decade and has contributed to the team’s
success with his players-first mentality and the fact that he treats every player on his team the same way.
“I base my goals off of what the players have to say, and I give them the tools and directions necessary to reach that goal,” Robertson said. “We want the whole team to be watched and not just one player because the game is about the 15 men on the field firing with the same mindset.”
Until 2008, the team was a member of the Heart of America Conference Division II level and then moved up to the Division I-AA level. While at the
Division II level, the team qualified for four national championships within a ten-year span.
At the Division I level, the team made it to nation-als in 2014 for the first time in team history. The team has also qualified for five Big 12 tournaments and made it to the championship match four times, coming away with one Big 12 title.
Sauer, who is in his fourth year on the team, expects this year’s team to be much better due to the experience that they gained from last year’s run. He also credited the team’s work ethic, which is rubbing off on the young guys.
“As the captain, I am here to tell them they have what it takes to be good and
keep a positive attitude on and off the field at all times,” Sauer said. “I’m here to lead by example and motivate them.”
Bay, the team’s vice-captain, also believes that the group has improved from last year because they know that they are good enough to go all the way with the core of last year’s team returning.
Those goals will not be easily realized. The team has had a slump recently
after starting out the season with wins against the Uni-versity of Iowa and Kansas University.
With the team riding the momentum of the hot start, they hit a bump in the road and were defeated by Kansas State and the Uni-versity of Missouri.
In the loss against Kan-sas State, the team suffered several injuries that ham-pered its game plan. Similar issues arose in the Missouri game, leading to back-to-
back losses.Despite the injuries
and losses, Bay said the team can overcome and still have a successful season.
“We believe that the l o s s e s h a v e j u s t b e e n [flukes], and they’re not a sign of what the future holds,” Bay said. “We need to get back to the basics, work as a unit and just grind out the little things.”
The team’s next game is scheduled to be played in the spring.
Courtesy of Anthony FreinThe ISU Rugby Club had a good season last year when it made the Round of 16 of the National Championships. Though it lost to Bowling Green, the team is looking forward to carrying the momentum into this season.
Rugby club eyes nationals; pushes through injuries
For those who don’t own foundation or eyelin-er, local drugstores carry affordable brands. Many also carry eyeshadow, fake lashes and fishnets for un-der $5 each.
Step 1 — Create an even skin tone using foun-dation.
S t e p 2 — T a k e t h e waistband of the fishnets and place on the top of your head. Pull down the fishnets until the waistband reaches right under your nose.
Step 3 — Pull the fish-nets tight against the sides of your face and begin filling the gaps in the fishnets with the eye shadow to create the illusion of scales.
T i p : T o e n s u r e t h e shadow will last throughout the night, consider filling the gaps of the fishnets with a light blue or green eye-liner first so the shadow has
a base to adhere to. Place dark shadows on the out-side of your face and gradu-ally add lighter colors. The scales should start around the hairline and move to-ward the eye area.
Step 4 — Apply black eyeliner to the upper water line and fake lashes to the top lashes. Add a fun pink lipstick for contrast!
Tip: Put a light coat of black mascara on your real lashes before applying fake lashes to help them blend with the false lashes.
To complete the mer-maid costume, consider curling your hair and put-ting on a skirt or dress that complements the colors you’ve applied!

STYLE 7Tuesday, Oct. 28, 2014
Models strutting down a candle-lit runway wearing fabulous clothing can only mean one thing - a fashion show. But when the runway is made of dirt, it’s not you’re average fashion show – it’s “The Resurrection”.
The Resurrection fash-ion show took place on Oct. 25 from 8 to 9 p.m. at The Grove clubhouse. Doors opened at 7:30 p.m. and at-tendees were asked to done their best funeral attire. The show featured garments from Portobello Road and Ti’La Brand, hair by Leedz Salon and makeup by Kait-lyn Stotts, a junior in graphic design.
Quentin Silvey directed the show and was assisted by Sam Sullivan, a senior in event management. Both Silvey and Sullivan are em-ployees at The Grove.
Silvey, senior in hos-pitality management, has been working at The Grove for two years and first was inspired to start directing fashion shows after The Grove hosted a show last year.
“I fell in love with the crowd and the feel of it,” Silvey said. “It’s something in Ames that people can get excited about.”
The Resurrection is the third fashion show this year Silvey has directed. The first one, Fashion Sense, was held in March with the theme inspiration coming from Radiant Orchid, the 2014 Pantone Color of the Year. The second show, Garden Party, was this past summer with a theme based off of plants and greenery.
Working alongside Sil-vey was Talia Jensen, owner of Portobello Road. Silvey contacted Jensen back in March to see if she wanted to be a part of Fashion Sense.
Prior to Fashion Sense, Talia had never done any fashion shows.
“I never had a desire to do fashion shows because I don’t design, so I wasn’t sure it was something people wanted to see,” Jensen said. “But Quentin had really cool ideas and he inspired me to start doing shows.”
The positive feedback Silvey and Jensen received inspired them to continue putting on seasonal shows.
The Resurrection was a Halloween-themed show, but Jensen said they didn’t want it to come off as corny. It had a very somber, dark and creepy tone.
“The name of the show was chosen because it’s held close to Halloween, and we wanted to give a good aes-thetic for that time of the year,” Jensen said. “But it was also chosen because we’re back again, it’s the resurrection of Portobello Road and The Grove.”
The Resurrection fash-ion show was the first time Ti’La Brand joined Porto-bello Road on the runway.
Tiny Laree Jackson, ju-nior in apparel, merchan-dising and design, is the de-signer of Ti’La Brand.
Jackson said she likes to incorporate print, color and texture in her designs. Almost all of Jackson’s gar-ments were created specifi-cally for the show. She said she wanted her clothing to be bold, while still keeping it fall colored.
“I used a lot of neutral colors like black, white, taupe and camel, and I paired them with bold prints,” Jackson said.
During the show, about 20 different looks were fea-tured from Portobello Road and about 15 from Ti’La Brand. Portobello Road’s collection included clothing and accessories that will be featured in the store in the upcoming months.
Korrie Bysted/Iowa State DailyThe Resurrection Fashion Show took place Oct. 25 in The Grove. The show was directed by Quentin Silvey and featured designs from Talia Jensen from Portobello Road and Doneisha Laree Jackson from Ti’La Brand. Attendees were asked to don their best funeral attire for the Halloween-themed show as models walked the dirt runway.

Deciding on a Hallow-een costume is anything but easy. Many college students find themselves r e s e a r c h i n g c o s t u m e s months in advance.
They struggle to find s o m e t h i n g r e a s o n a b l y priced, only to find them-selves with nothing to wear on the day before Hallow-een.
Why spend money on an outfit you will wear once when you can wear your costume on your face?
Below are tips to create a mermaid makeup look under $10. Be sure to check out the attached video for a tutorial showing how to create lion and scarecrow looks.
Liquid foundation in a dark color for contouring
Fake eyelashes, op-tional
Fake eyelashes, liquid eyeliner and face highlight-er can all be found at lo-cal drugstores for under $5 each. Any red lipstick and matte neutral eye shadow will complete this look.
Tip: Use a contouring foundation in a shade that is at least three shades darker than your skin tone. Don’t worry, it will get blended. Applying a translucent powder after finishing the makeup will guarantee that it lasts throughout the night.
An old brown sweater paired with ears and a tail made out of fabric makes a perfect costume. The fabric can be found at craft stores like Michaels or Hobby Lobby. A quarter or even an eighth of a yard would be enough to make the ac-cessories.

“It’s all about having fun with it,” said Kristin Livingston, junior at Des Moines Area Community College and a veteran ac-tor. “We get the freedom to be creative with scaring people and with your cos-tume.”
Nicole Harrison, soph-omore in architecture and first-year actor, said it can be difficult to be creative.
“You never realize how creative you have to be,” Harrison said. “There are different kinds of scares. A jump scare can scare anyone, and it’s hard to just be creepy and follow people. It’s hard to judge what people are feeling, so I think about what scares me and try that.”
Harrison said it often takes practice to perfect a good scare.
“We didn’t really know what we were doing the first night,” Harrison said. “If we try something new, it takes a while for it to actually start working. Like tonight, I had to make something work, and it took me hours to figure it out. Once I did, it worked great.”
T h e a c t o r s o f t h e H a u n t e d F o r e s t s e e a completely different side of people who dare travel through the attraction.
“It’s hilarious what people will say once they get scared of something,” said Jade Stuff lebeam, sophomore in performing arts and first-year actor. “You hear a lot of the same things from people. Like, ‘Is that real? I don’t think that’s real. Oh, geez that’s real!’ Or, ‘That didn’t even scare me,’ right after they jump.”
Timothy Bass, fresh-man in world languages and cultures, has stories as well.
“I was working the bridge one night, and I scared a girl so badly that she went through the bars and fell off,” Bass said. “She was okay, but we couldn’t help but laugh.”
Beck has also had in-teresting experiences with
people showing their true natures when they are frightened.
“People just do things because their body reacts in a certain way,” Beck said. “There was a couple, and I scared them both, but the guy used his girlfriend as the shield. So scaring brings out something in people that you wouldn’t really know otherwise.”
Harrison has also seen some unexpected reactions from people.
“ W e s c a r e p e o p l e we don’t expect to scare, like the big, bulky frater-nity guys,” Harrison said. “When you scare them, that’s really funny. It’s nice to have the easier scares, but when you get someone you weren’t expecting to, that’s really fun.”
“We tend to get in-jured, but I think it’s be-cause we’re more into it than most people,” Har-rison said.
Stufflebeam said she enjoys what she does at the Haunted Forest.
“I’ve made a couple people pee their pants,” Stufflebean said. “It’s just the greatest thing to make people expel some kind of liquid. You know you’re doing a good job when that happens.”
Most actors come to the Haunted Forest to work because of friends who had acted in previous years. Beck, Stufflebeam and Har-rison are roommates who decided to work the attrac-tion together.
“[Beck] told us about it and she forwarded us the e-mail from [Lee],” Harrison said. “We contacted him, and he scheduled us in im-mediately.”
Beck said diversity among the actors is a great way to improve the experi-ence for the participants.
“It’s crazy because we all bring something differ-ent in,” Beck said. “Most actors here are Iowa State students but not everyone. So that age and background difference is really awe-some. I’ve met people here I wouldn’t have met other-wise, so it’s nice to meet all
sorts of different people.”Beck said that although
working for a haunted at-traction is fun, it can also be dangerous.
“There are the people who come in belligerently drunk, and they think that they’re being funny,” Beck said. “I’ve heard stories about [actors] being kicked or punched in the face by those people because they didn’t think it was real. I’ve almost been punched in the face once.”
Beck said people react without thinking when they are frightened.
“It’s a constant work hazard that some people might actually hurt you because they don’t realize you’re an actual person,” Beck said. “So you have to remind them that you are a person and that could be difficult.”
Despite that, Beck said she would be willing to be an actor for the Haunted Forest’s 2015 season.
“It’s a fun job, and I re-ally think the more people know about working at a haunted house the better,” Beck said.
T o b e a n a c t o r f o r the Haunted Forest, ac-tors must be at least 18 and have a sense of people’s boundaries.
“The main rule is that you can sneak up behind people and scare them, but you have to keep them moving forward into the maze,” Livingston said.
It ’s about having a good time as well.
“It’s a fun time for ev-eryone, even for the people getting scared,” Bass said.
T h e a c t o r s a t t h e Haunted Forest encourage anyone brave enough to join the attraction for next Halloween.
“You do have to give up most of your weekends in October, but it’s worth it,” Beck said.
Harrison said she has enjoyed working for the Ballards.
“It’s a really fun experi-ence, and working for the [Ballards] is really a treat,” Harrison said.
If you wish to be an ac-
tor for the Haunted Forest for the 2015 season, con-tact Lee Ballard at 515-249-0553.
The Haunted Forest is open Thursday through Saturday. Tickets are $13 each.
A n o t h e r h a u n t e d house in Ames is right on the ISU campus: Helser’s annual Haunted Helser event is a s tudent-run haunted house that is hap-pening from 7 p.m. to 12 a.m. Friday. It is free for anyone to attend.
H a u n t e d H e l s e r i s p a r t n e r i n g w i t h F r i l e y Residence Hall’s Hallow-een event Frightful Friley. Frightful Friley is a dance that will be held at the resi-dence hall from 10 p.m. until 1:30 a.m. Friday.
The Collegiate Unit-ed Methodist Church and the Wesley Student Center are also hosting a haunted event in honor of Hallow-een, but it’s unlike anything around.
Dr. Fran Kenstyn’s Lab is a live, “escape-the-room” experience.
“Your only hope for survival hinges on your group’s ability to solve a series of puzzles which hold the keys to release you,” said Jim Shirbroun, the as-sociate director of Wesley Foundation and campus minister. “Succeed, and you’ll live another day to boast of your immense brain. Fail, and you won’t be needing your brain, if you know what we mean.”
The attraction is a fun-draiser for the Spring Break mission trip that is funded by the church every year. This year members of the mission trip will be travel-ing to the Heifer Project Ranch in Perryville, Ark.
Tickets are $10 per per-son or $7 per person in a group of six or more. The maximum group size al-lowed is 12 people.
The lab will be operat-ing Friday and Saturday. However, it may go beyond the Halloween season if there is a demand.
Contact Shirbroun via e-mail at [email protected] to reserve tickets.
