Letter of Recommendation

January 20, 2009

To Whom It May Concern:

Never did I think that an ad would make me jump up and down. But since Emily started working on the production team at The Daily Tar Heel, I’ve jumped high and low at least ten times.

Emily is immensely versatile; she has the creativity to make an eye-catching advertise-ment for anything from a second-hand thrift shop to an apartment complex. Each adver-tisement is well organized and contains a dominant element, capturing the attention of the reader. Her knowledge and talent with graphics and typography are unmatched—every advertisement has just the ‘right’ look.

Even when I come to Emily with a really rough idea for a few spec ads, uncertain as to whether the client will even run or not, she accepts the job willingly and enthusiastically. She is consistently putting her top-notch creative knowledge to work. I have never walked out of her office unpleased. She is incredibly easy to talk to, and truly cares about making the advertisement exude just the right message.

In addition to advertisements, Emily designed many covers, which have been esteemed as the best we’ve seen throughout our Daily Tar Heel generation. With every cover Emily designs, she represents our newspaper with integrity and passion—the best of the best.

Because of Emily, it’s easier to do my job. It’s next to impossible to turn down the bril-liantly designed advertisements she creates. And in turn, our clients are greatly satisfied because their advertisements are noticed and the cost of the advertisement becomes well worth it. Sincerely,

Jenna Tenace Daily Tar Heel Account Executive

Letter of Recommendation

January 16, 2009

Nomination for Emily Van Tassel as Designer of the Year:

I would like to offer a personal and professional nomination for Emily Van Tassel for Designer of the Year.

Emily began working at The Daily Tar Heel a year ago during her junior year at UNC. She works as an Advertising Production Assistant in the Advertising Production Depart-ment under my supervision. Emily creates her own schedule and generally comes into work for several hours, three days a week. She is primarily responsible for the creation of ads and speciall issue covers. Not only does Emily create the work but often comes up with the entire concept of a campaign or a special issue cover. Emily works well with little or no supervision. She works well under pressure and has always met or beat dead-lines. Emily’s creative energy flourishes when given free range on projects and she seems to have an endless creative drive.

Emily’s drive and creativity has helped The Daily Tar Heel win awards this past year. I highly recommend Emily for Designer of the Year.

Sincerely, Penny Persons The Daily Tar Heel Advertising Production Manager (919) 962-3999

LET YOURVOICE

BE HEARD

January 5, 2009 This letter serves to nominate David Banemanivong for CNBAM’s Designer of the Year.

David Banemanivong came down to UNC Charlotte’s Student Media in May of 2008, stepping in to the recently vacant position of Creative Director. David hit the ground running as the only student designer working the summer sessions. His impact was felt instantly in the quality of our printed publications as well as in our online ad creation.

In July, David designed the cover for our 2008 Menu Guide and over the summer put together our two biggest issues of the year, Welcome Back and Survival Guide. Where he really shined was his series of ads and posters for “Pizza and a Paper,” an event offered in the fall to draw attention to The University Times and attract new readers. David’s specialty is hand drawn designs and type that he digitizes for a cutting edge look. He uses bright colors and urban themes for a specific look, one might call collegiate graffiti. A hard worker, David is known by his peers at Student Media for his high skill level in drawing, his ability to strive under deadlines and willingness to always try. His warm personality is welcomed by students and professional staff alike, David has been wonderful in helping other students in online ad creation and capturing ideas; the process from the idea in your head to the ad in the paper. Most design students look to copy the current design trends to stay on top, David on the other hand is one of the people they mimic. Respectfully submitted, Pete Hurdle Graphics Production Coordinator, Student Media Publications Digital Media Professor, Art Department UNC Charlotte

January 6, 2009 CNBAM Award Selection Committee: I am writing to recommend David Banemanivong for the Designer of the Year award given by CNBAM to honor and recognize this special student and employee who has an abundance of and an overwhelming presence of creativity. I was extremely excited when David was selected by his peers to be our creative director during the 2008-2009 academic school year. His dedication to his artwork and Student Media is evident. He first came to Student Media during the summer and served as the only staff member in the creative department. During the summer, David dove right into the position. He designed and layed out our two biggest publications of the year – the Survival Guide and the Welcome Back issue. It was a massive undertaking, but David did it with ease. His work was of stellar quality and he took great pride in it. David works wonders under the pressure of deadlines and last minute changes. Not only does he keep calm but he also maintains a great attitude while fixing those last minute changes. He is inventive, imaginative, and willing to go the extra mile for our clients and to help other students in the creative department. What I like most of all is his true dedication to Student Media. He is not opposed to staying late to make sure that a client has approved their ads or rechecking the final dummy to ensure that there are no mistakes. David takes his job to a whole new level. I am sure that when he leaves UNC Charlotte our students, staff and clients will miss his personality and his amazing, artistic creations. He is extremely deserving of this award from CNBAM. Sincerely, Kelly Merges Marketing Adviser

Dear CNBAM judges: I am so excited to recommend Cassie Rupp as Designer of the Year. This year has been an intensely busy year for Cassie, and it is her greatest strength, her positive attitude, that has brought Ms. Rupp the successes she has achieved. This fall, I had the pleasure of working with Ms. Rupp as her zone manager. She was the creative for a zone of five salespeople, all of whom were the top salespeople on staff every month. With these high sales came loads of ads, and Cassie was by far the busiest creative on staff this semester. In addition to her full-time duties at The University Daily Kansan and full-time course load at KU, Cassie was also a full-time model and a part-time sales associate at a local boutique. A quality by which Cassie upholds herself is reliability, and even though she had more than her share of other duties outside of The Kansan, Ms. Rupp always finished our ads in a timely manner. Cassie is a worker who will work at all hours, midnight or 2 a.m., to get what she needs to get done. During busy time periods, such as when we would have deadlining special sections, Cassie would routinely stay late in the office or come in on Sunday nights to make sure she finished all deadlining ads. Often on these late nights Cassie would also take the opportunity to learn more about design and advertising. She spent hours every week working with our online manager refining her skills in Adobe Illustrator. Cassie would also spend hours asking questions with other creatives and our production manager, learning color separations, printing, production, packaging the newspaper and learning the colors that printed most vibrantly. With two of our creatives in the school of graphic design, Ms. Rupp organized an ongoing training for herself with them to learn more about effective design. Cassie is so passionate about design and advertising, that during her free time she would cut out ads she found visually appealing and effective, to constantly freshen her mind with effective advertising. Cassie is always bettering herself so she can gain a wide variety of expertise. She genuinely has her heart and soul invested into the people, clients, The Kansan and the work she does every day. Our zone was so lucky to have Cassie as our creative. Cassie encompasses a selflessness and a quality that makes her give everything she has to others, and these qualities were very appreciated within the staff and our zone. Although Cassie had an intense workload, she never complained. Ever. Cassie is always willing to help anyone who needed her, and she genuinely cares about people. An example of Cassie’s selflessness was when I was looking to redesign an ad campaign for one of my biggest advertisers. This client has a very specific image to uphold, and to completely revise the campaign we needed a very good idea. I came to Cassie with the idea to revise the campaign and she literally put her other work on hold to sit down with me until we came up with an idea we couldn’t live without. These were the most visually stunning ads I have ever seen in The Kansan, and with Cassie’s insistence on strategic color usage and simple design, the ad easily was created more effectively than my client’s campaign had ever been. A challenge with this client, a local dance club, was cleaning up and simplifying his ads. With Cassie’s hours of collaboration with me, she was able to simplify the ad by exaggerating the color usage

and strategic message. After running the ad once, I received at least five compliments from my peers on the jaw-dropping visual aspects of my client’s new campaign. I am now able to sell my client spot color over black and white, due to the arresting color usage as Cassie’s suggestion. Cassie’s sheer willingness to work and help our team be the best it can be has allowed the salespeople to increase their gross sales. Cassie constantly went on sales calls with reps to help better communicate the strategic message behind an ad idea. In addition to helping sell with the sales reps, Cassie constantly had her eye out for new business opportunities for the reps, even reps outside of her team. Last spring, Cassie presented one rep with a new business prospect, a local car repair shop. She went on the client call with the rep, and together, combined with Cassie’s infectious enthusiasm and passion for The Kansan, they were able to sign the new business on a $4,500 yearly agreement. This fall, Cassie would bring new business ideas to our zone, such as political candidates. This very idea helped our zone break goal for October and gave us a massive boost for November sales, with the zone selling thousands of dollars in additional revenue based on Cassie’s idea. Cassie would often make several spec ads for new businesses so that our clients would have more options when deciding on advertising. For one specific client, a local Italian restaurant, Cassie made six spec ads for the client, which played specifically to his personality, for he had a need for control. The several, well-designed options Cassie created for the client impressed him so much that the rep, for the first time, was able to really draw out an interest with this difficult client. In addition to providing new opportunities to the sales reps, Cassie worked hand-in-hand in helping better all ads at The Kansan. Through her experience working with professionals at Axiom Corporation in New York City, Cassie conducted numerous discussions about effective marketing strategies and trends in major corporations across the nation. Cassie would share this information with the other creatives, as she consistently initiated discussions among the creative staff on how to better the ads for all salespeople. On occasion, Cassie would share helpful design and advertising Web sites with the salespeople and the creatives. Her clean and eye-catching design style and her constant dedication to learning really upped the effectiveness and standard of excellence for ads in the office. It has been a true pleasure working with the undeniable talent and contagious positive attitude encompassed by Cassie Rupp. Cassie’s work ethic is incredible, and her design skills, as well as selflessness and willingness to help and constantly better herself, are the characteristics that define the talent Cassie exudes. I could talk all day about Cassie’s wonderful talent, but her bubbly attitude and optimism truly brightened the office morale each and every day. I am more than happy to nominate Cassie Rupp as the nation’s designer of the year. Sincerely, Laura Vest Zone Manager

Dear CNBAM Judges, I write to you today with great pride to nominate Cassie Rupp for the award of Designer of the Year. 2008 was Cassie’s first full year on the staff of The University Daily Kansan and in many different ways she helped both the paper as a whole and its individual account executives enjoy great success. Cassie was thrown into the fire immediately when she started in the spring as the creative for the Majors department here at The Kansan where she was in charge of putting together ads for some of The Kansan’s highest revenue accounts such as The Hawk and the Eldridge Hotel. She did so with utter professionalism and with great skill and was complimented consistently by many of these accounts for her good work. This past fall she served as the creative for the most successful zone here at the University Daily Kansan headed by Salesperson of the Year nominee Laura Vest. This zone faced the duel challenge of overcoming last year’s record numbers and a tough economy as the zone finished $11,786 over goal or 109%. With the accomplishment of being the highest-performing zone though comes the challenge of having to produce more advertisements than any other creative on staff. To ensure that she was able to keep up with this workload Cassie has worked hand in hand with the reps of the zone to make sure that they are as satisfied as possible with the ads that she is generating for them. This is never more evident than for Abe & Jake’s a local nightclub here in Lawrence which is not only one of the highest-revenue generating accounts here at The Kansan but also host to numerous promotional events for our paper as well. Cassie strived to create a consistent campaign for the account that was sexy and yet fun and thus proved enticing to KU students and has helped Abe and Jake’s continue to see their business grow. In addition to some of The Kansan’s highest-revenue accounts, Cassie has also tackled some of the paper’s trickier accounts. A perfect example of this is The Etc. Shop which has long been recognized as one of The Kansan’s more difficult accounts due to the owner’s exceptionally high standards for ads and thus equally high difficulty to please. The account at the same time has long been recognized as a great untapped source of income if only these obstacles could be overcome. Cassie looked at the account’s past ads and concluded that perhaps one of the reasons it was so difficult to satisfy the account was that the ads were too busy to be effective. She worked hand in hand with their account executive took the campaign in a fresh new direction creating a new slogan for them of “Charm Everyone one your Guest List” and the client was thrilled instantly. For the first time ever the client didn’t make a single change on a first draft of an ad The Kansan provided to them and they requested a complete campaign with a similar theme which led to a quick tripling of their advertising budget. Now a client that was once viewed as hopelessly difficult has now been made exponentially easier to work with all through the execution of Cassie’s ad campaign. These two examples are just a small sample of Cassie’s range as a creative. She adapts her creative pallet easily to the needs of both the client and the account executive to deliver them the best results possible. In addition to her range she possesses a tremendous work ethic as well. With the success of Cassie’s zone comes a tremendous workload of

ads which Cassie works tirelessly beyond what other creatives on staff work to ensure that the work is done but also to make sure that each ad looks as good as possible. Cassie is also not afraid to ask for help on occasion from other creatives if the workload gets too daunting to ensure that her zone gets their ads in a timely manner. Cassie reciprocates this teamwork when she can as demonstrated his past summer when The Kansan found itself overwhelmed by a high workload for its record-setting “Back to School” issue Cassie happily came in every night for two weeks to help produce ads when she wasn’t even on staff as she loves working for the paper so much, These are just a few examples of some of the fine work that Cassie has produced for The Kansan throughout this past year. She has a fantastic combination of both creativity and work ethic that made her an absolutely vital part of The Kansan this past year. Her fantastic work has resulted in tremendous results for the clients of The Kansan and large paychecks for the account executives in her zone. It is only fitting now to reward her for these accomplishments and I hope you will see fit to do so. Sincerely, Jon Schlitt Sales and Marketing Adviser The University Daily Kansan

Dear CNBAM Judges, It is my great pleasure to write to you today to nominate Casey Walsh for the award of Ad Designer of the Year. Casey spent all of 2008 as an ad designer for the account executives of The University Daily Kansan and her work was exceptional as she helped many of The Kansan’s account executives achieve record numbers. At the same time Casey helped pioneer new territories for her fellow ad designers on staff. One of the first things that is impressive about Casey Walsh is the sheer number of ads that she must produce on a weekly basis. The Spring of 2008 was the most financially successful semester in the 100 year plus history of The Kansan. With such tremendous financial success though comes a need for more ads to be produced. Casey was at the forefront of this as she served as the creative for The Kansan’s most successful sales zone. While other ad designers on staff would generate 5-10 new ads per week Casey found herself having to produce 15-20 fresh ads per week ranging from 6 column inch ads for an auto repair shop all the way up to full page full color ads for a local dance club. In each case she produced every ad swiftly and with the utmost professionalism. Her final products reflected her impressive background in graphic design and went above and beyond not only the client’s expectations but the account executive’s as well. The high volume of ads that Casey must produce necessitates a high work ethic and she certainly possesses that. Casey can constantly be seen in the production offices of The Kansan working late at night to make sure that the account executives on her team will have the ads that they need when they need them. This work ethic helps translate into a great amount of trust from the account executives that she works with. Account executives will come to her with the bare bones of an idea that she will then help flesh out into an ad that effectively combines copy, images and color. She has also helped account executives realize the potential in many of their accounts. A perfect example of this is 23rd Street Brewery a local micro-brew/restaurant that is more popular with the older crowd in Lawrence but not as popular with the student body. This is partly due to the fact that the client has never advertised in The Kansan with a great amount of frequency preferring instead to spend their money in competitive media that is more targeted towards older readers. Casey spent countless hours working with the account executive that was handling 23rd Street Brewery hashing out numerous ideas until Casey was absolutely certain that she could produce an ad that the client would be pleased with and that would prove effective as well. She personally accompanied the account executive to the sales pitch where they proposed two separate ads, one for the men’s basketball championship commemorative section that was aimed at both students and alums alike and one for the Insider’s Guide product aimed at incoming freshmen. Casey personally backed up the account executive by explaining to the client why she felt the proposed ads would be visually effective and thus effective for the client’s revenue. 23rd Street Brewery instantly agreed to buy both ads and began its relationship with The Kansan that then proceeded through the summer and into the Fall. Without Casey’s professionalism they never would have spent a dollar with The Kansan. For this and many other reasons Casey was recognized by her peers on The Kansan as the Creative of

the Semester for the Spring of 2008 and for the Spring of 2009 she will be promoted to the position of Creative Manager at The Kansan. In addition to producing superior ads for the account executives of The Kansan, Casey has demonstrated superior leadership by working to better reward her fellow ad designers at The Kansan. With record-breaking revenue at the paper also comes record commission checks for the account executives of the paper. In her conversations with her fellow ad designers Casey discovered that coming into the Fall 2008 semester that their motivation was perhaps at risk as they were putting forth long hours producing high quantities of ads but seeing little to no compensation. Casey came up with a proposal where in every ad designer would receive 8% of an account executive’s commission for the month. An example being that if an account executive earned $1,000 in commissions for the month than their ad designer would receive 8% of that amount or an $80 bonus. The plan was quickly approved by the student business manager and has proven to be a valuable tool in keeping the ad designers motivated this past semester and has helped promote a better sense of teamwork between the ad designers and the account executives. Casey’s great work this past year has produced tremendous results. Her superior creative abilities and output were a major factor in the account executives of The Kansan achieving record-breaking numbers. And her leadership in creating a commission plan for her fellow ad designers of The Kansan has helped create added motivation for that team as they work with the staff to build even more record-breaking semesters. It is the combination of these two that make her the tremendous asset that she is and also make her deserving of this prestigious award. Sincerely, Jon Schlitt Sales and Marketing Adviser The University Daily Kansan

Dear CNBAM judges: I am so excited to recommend Casey Walsh for Designer of the Year! She has completely redefined the role of a creative, a leader and a team member at The University Daily Kansan, and is the utmost qualified candidate for this national award. Of all the characteristics of a designer, a passion for the organization, salespeople and clients, as well as a commitment to constantly better oneself, are, to me, as a salesperson and manager, without a doubt encompassing of the position. Casey Walsh truly exemplifies these characteristics. Last spring, I had the pleasure of managing Casey as our zone (team) creative. Immediately, I was shocked by the ease with which the team worked with Casey. Of all creatives I had met, Casey had the most open and positive attitude, and for a position that entails so many changes to one’s personal work and criticism, Casey always took criticism easily and as a learning experience. Casey was the first creative to actively communicate with the Account Executives with a positive attitude and urge to help. In zone meetings, Casey took the time to provide feedback to the salespeople and ask for feedback as well. When I remember Casey, I will always think “communication among the team.” Casey is also a proactive problem solver. As her zone manager, Casey would come to me when she needed help with a specific salesperson as soon as the problem arose. Casey has an open and honest air to her that made the salespeople very comfortable approaching her. In addition to openness and a willingness to learn, Casey is a selfless team member and leader. I can recall dozens of times when I would need to change an ad and Casey would drop everything to make my changes. She did this for every salesperson, even outside of our team. Being the designer for the highest-selling zone on staff had demanding challenges for Casey. Our zone sold like crazy, and Casey averaged 15-20 ads per week, when the average ads per week was 7-10. Casey was just accepted into the very competitive and prestigious graphic design school and was taking Graphics I, a notoriously stressful and challenging course, while managing her duties as the highest-selling zone’s creative. Casey constantly used what she learned in Graphics to better our ads, using photos over illustrations, full color over black and white, simplicity and white space over clutter, and information on the path eyes follow in advertising to enhance our ads to the target audience and the client. She took the time to educate our zone, as well as other creatives on staff, so that when we communicated the strategy behind an ad, we were able to better sell each advertisement because the design was so strategic and made sense. When The Kansan had upcoming special sections, Casey was the most-swamped creative on staff. Our entire team’s client list consisted of more than 100 clients who needed their ads created by The Kansan, quadrupling Casey’s workload. For two specific special sections, Sex on the Hill and Insider’s Guide, our zone had record-breaking numbers of ads that needed to be created by Casey. She strategized by planning early and communicating with our team the importance of getting any aspect of the ad design in as early as possible, so she could design the best ads possible. I remember Casey coming in on the weekends to finish ads, coming into the office earlier than usual and sitting down with each salesperson to make sure the ad design was on-target. As a result, I was able to sell more ads into Sex on the Hill and Insider’s Guide than I had ever sold, and the ads created a buzz across campus. For Insider’s Guide, a special section deadlining right before Finals Week in May, Casey was finishing our ads while taking her finals and completing her projects in Graphics I. Casey truly did what was necessary to be a team player and get the ads done when or before we needed them. Casey has been a tremendous asset to The Kansan as an outstanding designer, but she has also stepped up as a team leader. With communication between the salespeople and creatives always Casey’s #1

goal, she developed a proposal that was long-overdue, to create more effective relationships among the staff. After Casey noticed a need for better pay for the overworked creatives, she communicated with the business and sales managers, the sales and marketing adviser and the creatives, to formulate a plan that payed the creatives a commission, based on the sales of their zones. Her plan was approved, for the first time in Kansan history. Casey’s plan energized the creatives’ motivation to make more ads for the salespeople and design better ads to increase sales. Casey will tell you the pay increase is her proudest achievement, far above being recognized as the best creative of the semester for a summer and the spring. In addition to leading the staff to an innovation never accomplished before, Casey has tremendous stories detailing her willingness to go above and beyond with the salespeople to make revenue-generating advertisements. Last spring, Casey worked hand-in-hand with a sales rep and her client, and finally produced an ad campaign that the notoriously difficult advertiser purchased. The client was a local brewery, and a past advertiser with The Kansan who had huge potential. Ali, the sales rep, and Casey, sat down to literally draw out ad ideas until they came up with an idea that caught on. After hours upon hours of collaboration with Ali, the two came up with a simple idea that played to the need of pride for the client, centered on KU’s national championship. The idea took hours and hours to create, and it was completely a team effort between Ali and Casey. With Casey’s knowledge of effective design from Graphics I, she collaborated with Ali Casey’s design knowledge with Ali’s advertising knowledge. After practicing for the meeting the two would go on together, Ali and Casey prepared a package advertising campaign including the commemorative basketball magazine and Insider’s Guide. During the meeting, Ali and Casey worked as a true team, and with their preparation and explanations by Casey of the strategy and effective design elements, in addition to Ali’s knowledge of effective advertising, Ali was able to sell the entire advertising package to the client! This was a big sale for Ali she had worked on all semester. With Casey’s willingness to help and design knowledge, Ali made a defining sale for her semester. Casey went above and beyond in this case, spending hours and hours of her time and truly helping a rep sell more advertising. Of all creatives I have worked with, Casey Walsh truly epitomizes the willingness to help and go beyond the requirements of her job to build a team relationship between the salesperson and the creative. She steps up as a leader every day, dropping what she’s doing to teach a creative or salesperson the elements of effective design. Casey doesn’t settle and is proactive about problem solving, exemplified in her approved pay raise for the creatives, motivating the creatives to work harder for the sale reps and increase revenue with The Kansan. Her knowledge of effective design aided in increasing the ad revenue brought into The Kansan. Of all the creatives I have worked with, Casey Walsh is truly the designer of the year.

Having worked as a graphic designer at the University

of Oklahoma for one year, my goal in Student Media is

to expand our clientele by providing a variety of creative

services. My portfolio consists of print ads as well as

a variety of promotional designs used for marketing.

Each piece highlights how I use my creativity and

graphic design knowledge to meet each individual

client’s specific needs.

John Salvie // 469.644.3758 // [email protected]

January 5, 2009 I would like to recommend John Salvie for the top designer award. John has a great interest in learning and mastering all things design. John is very skilled with computer design applications and processes. John has a great talent in that not only is he proficient in computer design, he's a natural at hand drawing. From hand sketching portraits to drawing cartoon characters for marketing campaigns or shirts John has what many could say is now a lost art in the design industry. John began working for us as a freshman and he very quickly showed us his talents. I have worked closely with John since then and have personally seen that he has great management abilities as well. John was selected to be our advertising design manager this year. This is a new position for us and John has done a wonderful job helping to create processes and training for our new design area. In this student position he oversees all aspects of the design process. This includes hiring, training and management of his team of designers and coordination with the student advertising sales manager. The design team has had some inconveniences this year in that remodeling of their new office area was unable to be completed prior to fall semester. Even with tight office space John and the designers worked through the semester with no complaints. John has a super personality and is a true leader. His staff looks up to him for guidance and training. It is not uncommon for him to drop everything he is doing to help a designer with a new technique or short cut in Photoshop. The full time staff here at OU Student Media are proud to have John on our student management team. Again, I'd like to recommend John for the designer award. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or need further information. Thank you for your time.

December 16, 2008

Dear CNBAM Voting Committee,

I would like to recommend John Salvie for the Designer of the Year award. He is one of the most creative and technically skilled students I have met. John began working in Student Media as a freshman in January 2008. He began his employment in Student Media as a layout coordinator. He was responsible for deciding where the ads should be placed on each page. This position requires working with account executives, newsroom staff, printer employees and advertising clients. He learned the programs very quickly and excelled at his tasks. When a design position unexpectedly became available, John applied. It was during his interview that I saw his outstanding portfolio. I was disappointed that so much talent had been hidden in our office for four months.

We quickly put his skills to use. Our department uses a three-step “Advance” program that lets our students complete the required steps for advancement on their own time frame. John advanced to Level 2 very quickly. He taught Photoshop and Illustrator tricks to other designers without being asked by any member of the professional staff. He brought in his personal Wacom tablet to create his own drawings for advertisements. His ads were being talked about all over campus. One client asked to use his newspaper ad as a poster that was displayed in several high profile buildings on campus. Another client asked him to consult on a campaign and ended up using his hand drawn designs. Soon, designers who had worked in Student Media much longer than John were asking for his help. It was very clear that John had all the essential elements of a great leader. Over the summer, he became our design manager - a position we had been without for over a year.

At the same time, we decided it was necessary to increase the size of our sales staff. This meant the designers would have to relocate to a small room outside of the sales office. John saw this as an opportunity to foster an area of creativity. He helped move furniture and equipment into the new space.

With no room for a professional adviser in the design office, it has been up to John to manage and lead his staff. This is something that seems to come naturally to him. He continues to teach others the more advanced techniques of design programs. He is responsible for disciplinary action, if necessary. John has much of the say on who is hired as design positions become available.

This fall, we completely changed our online presence, and more customers want their online ads to use Flash. John took it upon himself to learn the complicated program (only

one of our professional staff knows Flash.) With some direction from that staff member, John was able to give our customers what they wanted!

I hope that I have been able to convey the level of skill that John has brought to his position. In addition to this, he has an amazing attitude. He is never too busy to help and is always willing to take on special projects. He is happy and friendly all the time.

John is an irreplaceable member of the team. I have no doubt he will be very successful in his future endeavors. I hope you agree that John deserves this honor.

Thank you for your consideration of this very worthy candidate.

Respectfully,

Anne Richard Associate Director, Advertising and Marketing University of Oklahoma Student Media 860 Van Vleet Oval, Room 149A Norman, OK 73019-2052 (405) 325-7099 [email protected]

To the CNBAM Judges,

During my year as manager of our ad design department, I saw many designers who exhibited great talent and enthusiasm, but Jaclyn Chen impressed me in particular as being both a well-rounded designer and an exceptional staff member. For the reasons listed below, I would like to nominate Jaclyn as CNBAM Designer of the Year.

It was apparent from Jaclyn’s earliest designs, from an artistic standpoint, she had something unique to contribute to the department. Jaclyn incorporated her previous layout design experience into her ads, arranging text and objects in very eye-catching, innovative patterns. The best adjective I can think of to describe Jaclyn’s work is “fresh.” They have a way of making the viewer stop and stare, caught off-guard by the unexpected geometry and creative spacing of elements.

Furthermore, as a designer, Jaclyn is remarkably versatile. She maintains a clean, trendy, refreshing style that is distinctly her own, and yet is able to cater her ad designs to the needs of the customer. For Joseph Anthony Hair Salon, Jaclyn used calming images and bright colors to convey an image of relaxation and modernity; on the other hand, when designing for a local Italian restaurant, Jaclyn made use of traditional Serif fonts and down-to-earth shapes for a comforting yet classy look. Her ability to create appropriately innovative ads for such a wide range of clientele made her an indispensable asset to both the department and the corporation at large.

In the workplace, Jaclyn exemplified professionalism and excellence. She went beyond the basic requirements of punctuality and efficiency to really make the best of her time in the office and the resources with which she had to work. Frequently, she would stay after required hours to finish up a project so that it could be given to the client in a timely manner. In addition, Jaclyn maintained friendly and helpful relationships with the rest of the staff. During staff meetings, she often shared her design expertise with her peers throughout the semester, thereby enriching the learning experience for all of the staff.

I believe that Jaclyn Chen is a strong candidate for the CNBAM Designer of the Year. Her technical and professional contributions to the department significantly improved the department’s overall performance, and most importantly, she was a big inspiration to the entire team, pushing the existing standards of ad design and challenging everyone to aspire to reach a higher level of excellence.

Sincerely,

Tiffany Zhou DP Ad Design Manager, 2008

To the CNBAM Judges, As Advertising Advisor of The Daily Pennsylvanian for the past 15 years, I have had the opportunity to work with a large number of talented and dedicated student staff members and department managers. I can clearly rank Jaclyn Chen in the upper echelon of all those students because of her talent, leadership skills, dedication, motivation, hard work, and innovation. It is for this reason that I recommend Jaclyn Chen as Designer of the Year. Jaclyn joined The Daily Pennsylvanian’s ad design department at the beginning of the fall 2008 semester. The job of the production staff has changed over the years. It’s become more of a pre-press position, and the staff spends most of the time checking PDF files and converting files into a PDF format. Jaclyn joined the production team to design ad campaigns, but she understood from the beginning the importance of getting everything done by deadline, and that performing the more mundane tasks was part of the job. Jaclyn excelled as an ad designer from the very beginning. A key to designing effective ads is to communicate with the ad rep and the customer, to completely understand the customer’s image and selling point. Too often in the past, ads were designed that may have been visually appealing, but they did not address the message that the customer wanted to deliver. Jaclyn always took the time to meet with the ad rep and discuss the ad before she launched any software. In the case of Fox Leadership, this method made all the difference. Fox Leadership is a University customer that places ads in our paper to announce speaking engagements from University professors and other authors and lecturers from around the country. The people at Fox Leadership always want their ads to look “good” but they could never seem to convey to our design department what “good” meant. They would send us the text and we would add clip art, photography or fancy borders, but they were never quite satisfied with the results. That all changed when Jaclyn took over the account. She spoke directly to the customer, listened to their opinions, and designed an ad template that made the Fox ads stand out without adding any clipart or fancy fonts. The ad design spoke volumes to the image of both the customer and the speakers. Fox Leadership was very happy with the design, and even made the decision to add color to the ad, which of course increased our revenue. Fox Leadership continues to run ads in our paper on a consistent basis, using the same template that Jaclyn designed. During the fall 2008 semester, Jaclyn took on the role of designing “text-only” ads for University departments. These ads improved The Daily Pennsylvanian’s reputation as a group of talented designers. As an ad designer, Jaclyn is one of the best I have ever had the pleasure to work with. Sincerely, David Graham Advertising Advisor

Who says losing’s a bad thing?By JENNIFER SCUTERI

Contributing Writer

[email protected]

Men’s tennis coach Nik DeV-ore likes winning — but he sees an advantage to losing, too.

“Losing matches is not such a bad thing because then we get to play consolation games,” DeVore said.

Consolation matches, and the experience that comes with them, should not be hard to come by for the Quakers today at the Columbia Invitational in New York.

With opponents like Penn State, St. John’s, Southern Methodist and Ivy-League ri-vals Columbia and Harvard entered in the tournament, the Red and Blue will have their work cut out for them.

According to DeVore, “word on the street” is that Columbia

has the best team they have had in years. With senior Bog-dan Borta, a transfer from Manahttan College, and junior Mihail Nichifor on its roster, the rumors may prove true.

“Harvard has the most sto-ried program in our confer-ence,” DeVore added. “Year in and year out they are always going to be the team to beat in our league.”

DeVore’s players are only entered in about four doubles and singles tournaments this fall, with the primary goals of experience, strength and con-ditioning in mind.

Taking the court for the Quakers in singles this week-end are Phil Law, Jason Lin, Dmitry Bury, Alex Vasin, Adam Schwartz and Justen Roth. The doubles teams will be Vasin/Schwartz, Law/Bury,

and Lin/Roth. The Quakers will be without

their No. 1 singles player, ju-nior Hicham Laalej, who lost to Columbia’s Nichifor 6-4, 6-4, at Princeton last week-end. Laalej is currently play-ing as the 81st seed in the ITA All American tournament in Tulsa, Ariz., where he recent-ly upset the 31st seed Andres Carrasco of Arizona.

“Confidence is at an all-time high,” DeVore says, “The team is sort of coming together.”

And with the ITA North-east Regional Tournament approaching next Thursday, the timing could not be better for the Quakers. Using the up-coming tournament in Colum-bia as “tune-up”, the Quakers are hoping to gain more ex-perience — and if that means losing a bit, so be it.

By BRANDON MOYSESenior Sports Editor

Penn men’s soccer captain John Elicker has a chip on his shoulder.

That may be surprising, con-sidering his 7-1-3 Quakers just lost their first match of the sea-son and reeled off seven straight shutouts to open their sched-ule. But heading into tomor-row night’s match at Rhodes Field against Columbia (2-6-1), Penn’s previously impregnable defense has looked very vulner-able, surrendering eight goals in its last four games.

“It’s about understanding that we’ve played poorly and being angry about it,” Elicker said.

He feels that the team got back on track in its most recent match, a 2-1 double-overtime loss at Lehigh. Now, the Red and Blue are looking at getting back on the winning track, too.

With only six matches left in the season and little margin for error in the Ivy race, a defeat to Columbia “wouldn’t be the end of the season … but it would be one that we might wish we

had,” according to senior for-ward Omid Shokoufandeh.

The Lions’ record masks their dangerousness. One of their wins came against No. 16 Santa Barbara (No. 6 at the time) and their most recent loss was by just one goal at No. 19 Brown, despite the fact that they controlled the tempo for long stretches.

Penn is well aware of Colum-bia’s capacity to play up to its opponents. In New York last sea-son, the Red and Blue needed two late goals to beat Columbia, which was 2-5-1 at the time.

However, this year’s Lions are vastly different from those of 2007 — eight seniors gradu-ated, five of whom started last season’s match against Penn.

One holdover from last sea-son is forward Bayo Adafin, the lone man up top in Columbia’s 4-5-1 formation. If the Quakers hope to avoid an upset, they’ll have to neutralize him. The sophomore is just 5-foot-8, 164 pounds, but is fast, physical and accounts for over half of Columbia’s goals scored.

In order to stop Adafin, Penn coach Rudy Fuller said that his

defense will have to pressure him and limit his ability to get the ball in space and turn and shoot.

However, the Quakers, who lead the Ivy League in shots and goals per game, will need to exercise some caution in their offense. Columbia’s 4-5-1 formation lends itself to coun-ter-attacks, and the Lions are patient enough to wait for the right opportunity to pounce.

Fuller feels that his players got back “to showing who we really are as a team” against Lehigh, and that the change from the previous three games was more one of mentality than strategy.

Elicker echoes his coach and is confident that his team can beat Columbia if it plays to its potential.

“We just need to be concerned with ourselves,” he said. “If we play like we did earlier in the year, we know we’ll be OK.”

Four more years? Not quite for Nolan

SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) — The San Francisco 49ers fired coach Mike Nolan yes-terday, seven games into his fourth consecutive dismal season with the club, accord-ing to FOXsports.com.

Assistant head coach Mike Singletary is expected to take over the 49ers, who have four consecutive losses.

Instead of delaying the deci-sion until the 49ers’ bye week following Sunday’s home game against Seattle, owner John York apparently didn’t wait to get rid of his choice to re-vive the five-time Super Bowl champions, who have endured five consecutive losing seasons and haven’t made the playoffs since 2002.

Nolan, who hadn’t been fired when he conducted his usual Monday news conference, in-formed FOXSports.com of his dismissal. He didn’t immediate-ly return a phone call from The Associated Press, and several team executives and coaches didn’t return phone messages and e-mails last night.

MIAMI (AP) — Dwyane Wade scored 29 points, Mario Chalmers set a franchise re-cord with nine steals, and the Miami Heat scored 12 straight points in the fourth quarter to pull away and beat the Philadel-phia 76ers 106-83 last night.

Wade added seven rebounds and six assists. The Heat forced 26 turnovers— matching the most in the NBA this season—and moved to 2-0 at home for the first time since 2004.

Michael Beasley finished with 17 points, and Shawn Marion—playing with a hard plastic mask to protect a broken nose — add-ed 12 points and seven rebounds for Miami. Yakhouba Diawara scored 11 points and Udonis Haslem added 10 for the Heat.

RIAA gets legal setback in

prosecuting BU students

REPORTER’S NOTEBOOK

For one candidate, a changing

approach to campaign humor

By EMILY GARRETT

Staff Writer

[email protected]

The Recording Industry Association of America

has hit a roadblock in its efforts to prosecute four

students at Boston University for copyright in-

fringement.

Earlier this month, U.S. District Judge Nancy

Gertner forbade Boston University — which had

been subpoenaed by the RIAA — from providing

the names of students to the organization until

she further investigates the school’s privacy

policy.

The ruling is being called a “David and Goli-

ath” victory for students being targeted by the

RIAA.

Since early 2007, the RIAA has been targeting

college students for copyright infringement.

RIAA and colleges

■ Background: The RIAA

subpoenas colleges to provide

the names of students whose

IP addresses have been traced

to illegal downloading.

■ What’s new: A federal judge

ruled that Boston University

can’t hand over the names

until she reviews the school’s

privacy policy.

■ What it means: The decision

is one of the first legal victories

for students targeted by the

RIAA.

Democratic presidential can-

didate Hillary Clinton looked

somber following her speech at

the AFL-CIO convention last

week.“We need to do something so

that our party and our people

can make the right decision,”

she said.

The reporters in the room

looked around eagerly and un-

comfortably, wondering where

this speech was leading.

But then Clinton announced

that she challenged Barack

Obama to a bowl-off for the Dem-

ocratic nomination.

Journalists and photographers

smiled. This woman is actually

funny.

But for a long time, Clinton

seemed unable to poke fun at

herself — something Obama

has done with much less effort

throughout the primary season.

It seems that her gradual in-

clusion of humor in speeches

and campaign events has made

Clinton more personable — and

more human.

But her speech at the AFL-CIO

convention wasn’t the first time

Clinton was genuinely funny.

“Do I really laugh like that?”

Clinton said to Amy Poehler , who

played her in a sketch on Sat-

urday Night Live the weekend

before the Ohio and Texas pri-

maries in March. When Poehler

shrugged in affirmation, Clin-

ton smiled, saying, “Eh, yeah,

okay.”It was the most comfortable

Clinton had looked in months.

She didn’t even attempt humor

when Gov. Ed Rendell endorsed

her in January. Compared to the

New Orleans kicked a go-ahead field goal as time expired to send the Eagles to their second loss. See page 11

By ANDREW TODRESThe Daily Pennsylvanian

As the Penn men’s soccer team learned yesterday, it’s not easy to unseat the champion.After winning their first three league games, the Quakers finally faltered against defending league co-champion Dartmouth, losing for the first time in nearly a month by a score of 2-1 .

Riding the momentum from a thrilling double-overtime victory a week earlier against Columbia, Penn (7-3-1, 3-1-0 Ivy ) entered the game in high spirits, unfazed by the eight-hour drive to Hanover, N.H. “We came out sharp with a lot of energy,” coach Rudy Fuller said. “I credit our guys with their approach

I don’t know how Columbia coach Norries Wilson usually interacts with the media. But I had the privilege of sitting in on the first-year coach’s press confer-ence the other day after Penn’s 16-0 win over the Lions, and in short, it was the most entertaining one I have ever been to.Wilson ranted and raved for over six minutes saying things like:

“There are assistant coaches on [Penn’s] staff that talked to recruits and said, ‘Don’t go to Columbia be-

By MICHAEL GULINELLOThe Daily Pennsylvanian

On a day dominated by defense on both sides, senior running back Joe Sandberg broke free for an 18-yard score and caught a 10-yard touchdown pass to lead the Quakers to a 16-0 victory over Columbia.

Penn (4-1, 2-0 Ivy) completely shut down the Lions (3-2, 0-2) on the ground, allowing a mere 28 yards on 23 attempts and forcing Columbia’s offense to play a one-dimen-sional game.

And even though Columbia quarterback Craig Hormann threw for 246 yards, the Lions only reached the red zone twice and were unable to convert on either occasion.

“Their quarterback is real accurate,” senior defensive tackle Brian Fairbanks said. “We focused all week on trying to get pressure on him.”In the end, the Quakers won the game on two key plays — one on defense and another on special teams.With five minutes gone in the second quarter and leading 3-0, Penn punted from its own 39-yard line after a 3-and-out.But on the Lions’ very first play on the ensuing drive, running back Jordan Davis fumbled and Fairbanks recovered, giving the Quakers a first down on Co-lumbia’s 19.

Quarterback Robert Irvin completed passes to Braden Lepisto and Sandberg for a five-play scoring drive that (after a

muff on the extra point) gave Penn a 9-0 advantage.

On the first drive after the touchdown, Penn coach Al Bagnoli switched to ju-nior Bryan Walker at quarterback. Walker completed one pass and had runs of 23 and eight yards before exiting for Irvin.But the sophomore, who finished the day with 185 yards on 18-for-32 passing, could not keep the drive going, and the Quakers went into the locker room with a single-digit lead.The Quakers offense came out flat in the third quarter, losing yards on its first two drives.

These types of drives led Bagnoli to call

It wasn’t the offensive futility that defined the Penn women’s soccer team’s loss to Dartmouth yesterday. And it wasn’t the injuries to the Quak-ers’ frontline or their severely altered rotation. According to coach Darren Ambrose , Penn’s 1-0 loss could be described in four simple words: “One mistake, one goal.”

For the second time in two Ivy League games, the Quakers (7-4-1, 1-3-0 Ivy ) lost a defensive battle after a critical loss of possession in their half of the field.“It was a carbon copy of the Co-lumbia performance,” Ambrose said. “It’s obviously frustrating for us.”After a Penn free kick from mid-field in the 30th minute, Dartmouth

Art, memories and a pair of gray-and-white striped pants took center stage at Hillel last night, as Holocaust survivor Wil-liam Bernheim shared his expe-riences with the crowd.

William Bernheim, grand-father of College sophomore Taylor Bernheim, chronicled his journey from Poland, to the Lodz ghetto and ultimately to the Buchenwald concentration camp in Germany.

The event commemorated the 70th anniversary of Kristall-nacht — the night of broken glass — when Nazi soldiers de-stroyed the homes, businesses and synagogues of German Jews.

Bernheim told the crowd of the horrors he witnessed in

Nazi ghettos and concentration camps, including brutal beatings and executions.

After surviving the evils of Nazi Europe, Bernheim made it to America where he found a new life. He worked many odd jobs, sleeping some nights in Central Park.

“I prayed that some day I would tell the world what the Germans did,” he said.

To share his personal story, Bernheim began to paint im-ages that reminded him of the war. He learned to paint when he was young but only returned to it years after his liberation, when he was ready to deal with the graphic memories and put his experiences on canvas. He didn’t want the world to forget the horrors of the Holocaust.

Taylor Bernheim displayed slides of his paintings, which

portrayed her grandfather’s per-sonal experiences, Jewish values and the mass murdering of Jews in concentration camps.

One painting, she comment-ed, is on exhibit in Yad VaShem, Israel’s official Holocaust me-morial.

After presenting his oil paint-ings, he had one more surprise for the crowd: the pants he wore when freed by American sol-diers in 1945. He saved them as reminder of what he had been through.

College sophomore Rivka Fogel, a friend of Taylor’s, felt the need to commemorate the Holocaust. “I came,” she said, “because I’m a part of the Jew-ish nation and I’m tied to the Ho-locaust.”

Bernheim left the audience with several messages he car-ries from his experiences. “Don’t take your freedom for granted,” he warned. “We must continue to remind the world of this injus-tice.”

Distrito, a tapas restaurant located at 40th and Chestnut streets, features contemporary Mexican cuisine and fun and eccentric decorations, like a table shaped like a car near the entrance-way and these Lucha Libre masks that line one of the walls.

Mexican tapas — on 40th StreetBy ELIZA ROTHSTEIN

34th Street Magazine

Chef Jose Garces’ most recent incarnation in the Hub building on 40th and Chestnut streets strays from his more romantic Philadelphia Spanish restaurants — Amada and Tinto — to focus on the color, spice and vibrancy of Mexico’s capital city. The menu is still tapas style, but the food varies from Garces’ previous ventures.

The decor of the two-story, 250-seat restaurant is similar to Steven Starr’s restaurant emporiums.

The interior features a down-stairs bar complete with fresh fruit on display, an open kitchen up-stairs and a rainbow wall of Mexi-can lucha libre wrestling masks lining the stairs in between.

Other flourishes from Dis-trito Federal — another term for Mexico City — include menu boards reminiscent of taco stand advertisements, gold tables, a Volkswagen beetle taxi cab you can actually dine in and a screen playing Mexican films above the stairway.

The wide range of small plates on the menu include standard fa-vorites like nachos, tacos, tama-les, enchiladas and quesadillas.

Garces has elevated street food into what he calls “modern Mexi-

can,” creating a distinctive and adventurous selection of dishes, perfect for an extreme-eater. Dis-trito serves many specialties that would be impossible to find else-where in West Philadelphia.

Miniature soft tacos stuffed with veal cheeks and salsa verde ($8) and tongue with a guajillo chile glaze ($6) build on the stan-dard chicken, steak and fish taco selection. The truly adventur-ous should try the tuétano, tiny crystals of bone marrow served within the bone, accompanied by fresh tortillas, bacon marmalade and jalapeño cilantro ($8).

Because elaborate meals here can add up quickly, the ideal way to visit Distrito is with a large group of friends who love to share. If each person orders two to three different dishes for the table, you can try plates from each section of the menu and leave completely satisfied.

The chef offers a tasting menu for $40, but it is more rewarding to make your own selections.

Start immediately with the Encarnación nachos ($8), topped with skirt steak, refried beans and gobs of cheese, an order of guacamole ($10) and a pitcher of watermelon margaritas as you decide the rest of the meal.

Some favorites include the Gui-sados, short rib flatbread with a three-chile barbeque sauce ($11), and the yellowtail Hamachi tacos ($11), which strike a delicate bal-ance between the crispy fried fish and creamy avocado textures.

For dessert, chase away the cold-weather blues with a flight of tequila and an order of churros y chocolate — warm, rich chocolate accompanied by cinnamon and sugar fried dough sticks ($7).

Distrito is also a perfect spot to come for drinks and an appetizer. Although the décor may be slight-ly overwhelming, with its warm hues of pinks and oranges, Dis-trito provides a funky respite from the upcoming frosty months.

Wednesday, nov ember 12, 2008 The daily Pennsy lvani an

team’s output in the new timeslot, especially given next Tuesday’s unusual 10 a.m. tip-off at Drexel.

“We set the schedule before we even knew we were playing that 10 o’clock game,” Miller said with a chuckle. “I wish I had that much foresight.”

No time for timetables. Mill-er is reluctant to predict the re-turn dates of his ailing ballers.

“There’s no timetable for anyone, really,” he said. “It’s just a matter of them rehab-bing, and hopefully they get back as soon as possible.”

Darren Smith (knee), Tom-my McMahon (foot) and An-dreas Schreiber (shoulder) are all nursing various injuries.

Smith, who missed all but one game last season with a fractured kneecap, attended shootaround with the team yesterday morning.

Toeing a new line. Like all NCAA courts across the coun-try, the Palestra hardwood will feature a brand new three-point stripe this season, located a full foot behind the previous semi-circle, which stood 19 feet and nine inches from the rim.

“There’s a lot of focus on where your toes are at, making sure they aren’t on the line,” sophomore Tyler Bernardini, who led the Red and Blue with

45 trifectas last year, said. To help facilitate the transi-

tion, the team constructed a makeshift three-point line out of tape after the season ended last spring.

“I really haven’t seen a dif-ference,” Miller said. “In a scrimmage the other day, we were 20-for-31 from three-point range in a 40-minute scrim-mage. I don’t know if we’ll shoot the ball like that every day, but we’re encouraged.”

After f inishing one stop from the Ivy cellar in three-point proficiency last season, perhaps the new distance will prove a welcome change.

Who gets the nod? With just 72 hours to go until Penn’s

showdown at the Dean Dome, Miller says he still hasn’t com-mitted to a starting lineup.

“Not at all,” he said, when asked if he’d decided on a pro-jected five.

Of course, that hasn’t stopped the team from conjec-turing on its own.

“We’ve gone with a lineup of me, Zack Rosen, Tyler [Ber-nardini], Jack Eggleston, and Cam Lewis for the two scrim-mages,” Gaines said. “Things can change, but that was what we went with.”

If Gaines’ hypothesis holds, that would mean that one fresh-man, three sophomores and one senior will take the court for Miller against the nation’s premier team on Saturday.

S P o r t S

ple on this team, the different personalities,” said Ottinger, an Alvernia (Pa.) grad who honed her passing skills on the softball diamond.

“It’s really fun because we get to hit people, get a little bit of aggravations out.”

Last season, the Firebirds were a part of the National Women’s Footba l l A sso -ciation as the Philadelphia Phoenix. But they are now in the midst of an extreme tran-sition. Not only did they move to a bigger league (think of an AFL-to-NFL move five decades ago), but they lost about half of their roster from last spring despite an undefeated regular season.

The open tr youts drew more than 20 women, a sig-nal of this high turnover which is no doubt caused by the financial burden the sport can present. There is no paycheck involved, and balancing bi-weekly prac-t ices a nd week ly ga mes with a ful l-t ime job is no easy task.

Despite what Ott inger called a “continuing strug-gle” to maintain a consistent roster, the game’s allure still remains.

Gaddy Fortune, a 2007 Syracuse grad and standout midfielder for the Orange la-crosse team, turned to the Firebirds when she decided not to forego tryout for the U.S. lacrosse team.

“I grew up always play-ing football — always the one with all the boys,” said Fortune, who hopes to play wide receiver or safety. “It was good to see a bunch of really athletic girls playing football.”

By now, that novelty has worn off for third-year Fire-birds coach Jack McKenna. A former quarterback at Spring-field High School in Delaware County and a coach at Ridley, you can think of McKenna as Tom Hanks’ character in A League of Their Own. An ex-player and a lover of the game, he now knows that the girls can play, too.

“I’ve got girls that are throwing the ball 60 yards, 70 yards,” McKenna said. “It’s fun because they don’t have bad habits like you do with a lot of guys.”

Judging from this week-end, the players’ enthusiasm and coachability is off the charts. But even if the Fire-

birds fill out their roster as they expect to, emerging as a force in the marketplace and becoming a household brand is an uphill battle.

The Firebirds don’t have any national sponsorships, but owner and former defen-sive lineman Tawana Gray-son has spearheaded efforts to get the team’s name out in the community. Such efforts have included participation in community events like pa-rades, as well as an exhibi-tion game during halftime of the Philadelphia Soul’s 2007 season opener.

For Grayson, a materials manager by day, it’s a tire-less effort.

“Basically, from when I get home to when I go to sleep, it’s focus on the team,” she said.

The Firebirds’ ultimate goal may be to follow the lead of other IWFL teams and net a sponsorship with a large media outlet like Comcast.

Such a partnership would significantly defray the fi-nancial blow for many of the players, and provide invalu-able TV exposure in the pro-cess.

Until then, however, the Firebirds will make do with what they can, with one thing driving them.

“It is truly,” Grayson said, “a labor of love.”

quarterbacks has done noth-ing to whet Irvin’s desire to play a fifth year. He said yes-terday he would only turn one down if he thought his body couldn’t take the abuse.

He became eligible for it after spending most of last year recov-ering from shoulder surgery.

“If I’m healthy, I definitely would,” he said. “I think it’s one of those things that if you looked back on it, you’d defi-nitely regret not doing it.”

Taking off the Band-Aids. Irvin is one in a long list of ding-

ed-up players Bagnoli hopes to have back in three days.

Luis Ruf folo, Joe R ost and David Wurst worked out sparingly yesterday and will double their workloads today. (Bagnoli likes to slowly build up players who are recover-ing from what he called “leg trauma.”) The coach was op-timistic, but couldn’t confirm their availability for the Har-vard game.

T yson Maugle is st i l l a possibility; he will practice with his broken f inger on Thursday for the first time all week.

Mike DiMaggio practiced normally after suffering a scary-looking twisted neck when a Pr inceton player yanked his face mask.

Mr. Popular. Bagnoli did not watch Yale’s 13-3 win over Brown last week, which

opened the door for his team to win the Ivy crown. But he found out about the result soon enough.

“Bet ween my k ids , my coaches and some alums … I must have had about 25 mes-sages.”

He said the spoiler, Yale coach Jack Siedlecki, can expect a thank-you message, although he hadn’t sent it as of 6 p.m. last night.

NOTES: Kyle Olson under-went successful surgery last week for the torn knee ligament he sustained against Brown. … Garton and safety Britton Ertman took Ivy League Of-fensive and Defensive Player of the Week, respectively. … The Friday night game prompted a rare Sunday night workout for the Quakers, who have since returned to a normal practice schedule.

Much-anticipated campus chocolaterie proves even more enticing than its Center City relativeby Jessica White

A glass of red wine with dinner followed by a steaming cup of hot

chocolate for dessert: the ultimate formula for good health. While the new Na-ked Chocolate Café at 34th and Walnut cannot provide the wine, it can serve the chocolate, and some pretty scrumptious chocolate at that.

The newest gastronomic addition to the Penn campus serves an array of mouthwa-tering chocolates, pastries and coffees and provides se-renity amidst the hustle and bustle of campus. Whether you are one to cherish the burst of flavor in a single bite of decadent truffle or you prefer the sugar rush from a chocolate peanut butter cupcake, Naked Chocolate provides different strokes for different folks.

As cold fronts slowly settle over Philadelphia, the de-sire for a hot mug of liquid chocolate suddenly spikes, and Naked Chocolate thank-fully offers five varieties designed to quell the winter-time craving. Next time you reach for a Swiss Miss packet of dehy-drated marshmal-lows and powdered milk, reconsider. The European-style, ga-nache-like hot choc-olate imparts a deep and bold flavor. All five combinations (Classic , Bitter-sweet, Aztec, Spicy and Hawaiian) have unique flavor pro-files. The un-doc-

tored simplicity of the Bittersweet makes it a house favorite. The Aztec, reminis-cent of a 3,000 year old recipe, smells of cinnamon and pres-

ents cardamom undertones. The

Spicy ignites a true pow

i n yo u r t h r o a t ; although unexpect-

ed when the first taste hits your mouth, the chili and cayenne shine through in this hot chocolate. The new-est option, Hawaiian, uses the milk-dark base of the classic but includes black and red lava salt varieties as well as caramel. Salt dramatically enhances the flavor of choco-late — the reason chocolate covered pretzels are an ad-dictive confection — and the Hawaiian’s intense chocolate flavor is highlighted by the contrast of the savory salt and sweet caramel. Drinking chocolates are sheer deca-dence in a cup.

Next time you complain about the long trek to DRL, make a stop in Naked Choc-olate for an endorphin boost. Whether you prefer drinking your chocolate or eating it, you are sure to leave hap-pier than you came. If hot chocolate is your indulgence of choice, live dangerously and pass on the skim for the European style alternative — the extra cream will do you some good. After all, you

might need a little extra meat on your bones to weather the cold days

ahead.

Fully equipped with Wi-Fi, a professional-ly-trained staff and a

menu chock full of unique caffeinated products, locally owned Caffeination on 21st and Chestnut welcomed the public for its grand opening last Saturday.

“Prognosis is good!” said Mitchell Cohen, owner and graduate of the American Barista and Coffee School of Portland, Ore. It was lunch-time, and already the café had the cozy and relaxed atmosphere of a well-estab-lished neighborhood coffee shop. “We try to keep a lot of our products local,” Co-hen informed me as he bade me try one of the chocolate-chip muffins. “We get all of our baked goods from Baker Street Bread Co. in Manayunk, and they’re ab-solutely delicious.”

He wasn’t kidding. But along with tasty sweets, Caffeination also brews two types of tasty coffee sup-plied by Morning Star Cof-fee Inc. in West Chester, Pa. There’s the House Blend, a medium to dark roast coffee from countries all over the world, and also the owner’s personal favorite: Yirgach-effe, an award-winning va-

riety that comes only from the small Ethiopian town it’s named after. “It’s believed to be the first place where coffee was ground,” Cohen explained, “The coffee trees [there] have gigantic coffee ‘cherries,’ which tend to be naturally sweeter.”

But even if you’re not a coffee fanatic, there’s no need to fret. Caffeination also offers a truly unique option for tea lovers: the Red Tea Espresso. Having won “Best New Product” at last year’s national Cof-fee Fest, this tea espresso is a caffeine-free and anti-oxidant-rich alternative for making lattes, cappuccinos and frappes.

Stop by Caffeination for breakfast or lunch, and in-gest one of their muffins, scones, bagels or paninis. They offer caffeinated ev-erything from lollipops to lip balm. And if you can’t find the caffeinated product you’re looking for, be sure to ask Cohen himself; he’ll be happy to find the best way for you to ingest your “legal drug of choice.”

Death from Above 1979You’re a Woman, I’m a Machine2004

Winter of 2005. My friends and I were hitting Jupiter Room every Sat-urday, the indie club that didn’t charge cover. One of the staple songs was “Blood On Our Hands,” which always played at the exact time we wanted to convulse.

I saw the Death From Above 1979 show a week after I had seen Arcade Fire play their hometown Funeral concert — quite a time to be young and Canadian. Pressed up against the stage, no one could take their eyes off drummer/vocalist Sebas-tien Grainger, and we be-lieved him when he sang “So that you’re not alone/I want to take you home with me.”

The mythology sur-rounding him in Montre-al was unparalleled: “He was my brother’s friend’s roommate at University of Toronto!” The band’s breakup was devastating. I remember seeing the al-bum reduced to $9.99, and I told the clerk, “Don’t you know how important this album is? They just broke up!” He rolled his eyes. He was over it. I’m still not.

Street: As a self-proclaimed Jewish rapper, how much does the Torah influence your work? The Talmud?Steve Markowitz: I bring up front that I’m a Jewish rapper, and I’m proud of it. I like to talk about bagels and hiding the Afikomen. But overall I keep the music in a New York Jew style rather than talking about adventures with Aaron and Moses.

Street: Would you consider including the shofar in any of your beats?SM: Oh yeah, I think the shofar would be a good in-strument. A song like “Stylin’ with the Shofar,” it’d be a new fresh hit for the Israeli youth. I think they’d dig it.

Street: Why should we come to your shows?SM: You should come to my shows because they’re the most revolutionary experi-ence known to man. If you were at Spring Fling last year, you would know that not only did you get to expe-rience great rhythm stylings and a good old time, you also probably got free bagels that I threw into the crowd. High energy, poppy seed bagels.

Street: How do you think your Penn degree will help you in the rap world?SM: Um. Zero percent, not at all.

Street: In the tradition of rap, what gang do you as-

sociate yourself with and who are you currently “beefing” with?SM: Well, I think I could add a new dimension to the Latin Kings. I like wearing gold. They’d welcome me with open arms. I guess I’m beef-ing with Penn Security ’cause I don’t want the man holding

Penn’s latest effort to reach out to high-achieving students in need of economic assistance is already showing signs of suc-cess.

This year, 26 students will receive full, four-year scholar-ships to Penn because of the University’s new partnership with QuestBridge — a program that links low-income students with grants at top colleges.

The selected students, called National College Match Schol-ars, were among the 616 who passed a QuestBridge prelimi-nary evaluation and indicated Penn as one of their top eight col-lege choices, according to Dean

of Admissions Eric Furda. QuestBridge participants fill

out an extensive application designed to showcase their achievements and highlight the economic obstacles they have overcome.

After indicating Penn as one of their top choices, 220 students proceeded to the next round of the application process by sub-mitting the Common Applica-tion and Penn’s supplement.

From that pool of applicants, the undergraduate admissions office identified 83 students “they were interested in,” Furda said.

Student Financial Services de-termined that 31 of those appli-cants met Penn’s College Match criteria, meaning they were fi-nancially eligible for a $52,000 per

year scholarshipThe award will cover tuition

and other living expenses.Penn granted admission to 26

of the 31 financially-eligible stu-dents.

The remaining 52 students the admissions office is considering will be placed in the regular deci-sion pool unless they request oth-erwise. Five of those 52 students have already asked that their ap-plications be submitted for early decision admission, Furda said.

Participating in the College Match Program “took a lot of re-cruitment and evaluation effort,” Furda said.

He attributed the high number of qualified students who were admitted through the match pro-gram to QuestBridge’s rigorous

screening process.The applicants Penn received

were already qualified and pre-selected, Furda said.

QuestBridge spokeswoman Beverly Clark said other schools are also satisfied with the pro-gram. In its second-year with QuestBridge, Emory University had 11 match scholars, the same number as last year..

Last year, 204 students in total were selected as College Match Scholars and received full schol-arships to one of QuestBridge’s partner schools nationwide.

QuestBridge has not yet re-leased the total number of match scholars for this year.

Penn admits 26 QuestBridge applicants

The Wharton School and the School of Arts and Sciences have created a program in which stu-dents can receive both an MBA and a Master’s of Environmen-tal Studies, the University an-nounced last week.

The program allows students to complete both degrees in two and a half years, spending three semesters in residence at Wharton. They will complete 15 course units of credit and three

in residence in the MES pro-gram, where they will complete nine c.u.’s, said SAS associate dean and School of Liberal and Professional Studies executive director Kristine Billmyer.

The program was created pri-marily in response to demand from MBA students, said Legal Studies and Business Ethics professor and director of the Initiative for Global Environ-mental Leadership Eric Orts. But he explained that the inher-ently “interdisciplinary nature of this whole field” was another

factor.He added that “these degrees

have been increasingly common in some of our competitors.”

“It’s an ideal combination, really building on strengths and reputation for both of those programs and both of those de-grees,” she added.

A student who participates in the new program will have a number of possibilities for jobs, said Orts, including the of-fice of chief sustainable officer or health and environmental safety departments, roles that

create strategies for improving cost efficiency and positions in environmental marketing.

“I think this is a terrific pro-gram that will meet an impor-tant educational need for today’s society and business,” SAS Dean Rebecca Bushnell wrote in an e-mail.

As with all dual-degree pro-grams, interested students must be admitted by both SAS and Wharton, said Billmyer. She said she expects students to begin matriculating into the program in September 2009.

New alert service eliminates extra treks to the laundry room

By ALEX MELAMEDStaff Writer

[email protected]

Free use of laundry ma-chines in College Houses lets students save money when they wash their clothes. And with new online alerts that track the status of washers and dryers, students will be able to conserve their time as well.

The new ser vice, called Laundry Alert, lets residents check the status of laundry machines in their building.

“Laundry Alert was one of a series of laundry service en-hancements that were intro-duced this year for students,” said Doug Berger, Executive

Director of Housing Services. “Others include installing more energy efficient machines that offer 32 percent greater capac-ity than conventional wash-ers.”

Residents can check the status of laundry machines by signing into laundryalert.com , where they can view how many machines are in use and approximately how much time is left on busy ma-chines.

Students can also sign up to receive e-mail alerts telling them when their machine is finished and when a washer or dryer becomes available.

College sophomore Gregory Wall said the new system has

helped make “doing laundry incredibly convenient,” and he hopes that students will utilize the technology.

“Laundry Alert doesn’t di-rectly resolve the problem of people leaving their laundry in the washers in dryers and picking it up at the end of the night,” Wall said. “But it defi-nitely offers services like the e-mail alerts which can po-tentially mitigate those types of frustrations.”

Cornell University already offers a similar service, which students say saves time and effort.

“It’s really convenient to be able to check the availability of the machines online, and it saves a lot of time because you know exactly when there will be free machines,” said Cornell sophomore Kristen

Dilzell.Business Services spokes-

person Barba Lea-Kruger said the system at Penn is off

to a good start. “Because the system is

new, there have been a few glitches reported which we

are addressing, but overall, the response from students has been positive,” she wrote in an e-mail.
